Chapter 266 – I hit people for money



Chapter 266 – I hit people for money

"Using monsters as spies to monitor the envoys of various countries?"

Ying Ying\'s expression turned cold. If she didn\'t like eating books and scare these hidden monsters, it would be difficult for anyone to notice them.

After all, spiritual beings attach themselves to everyday objects, and these objects are usually things that people have around them. No one would suspect that their vase has turned into a monster that spies on their secrets for enemy countries.

If the secret of the envoy\'s mansion was not discovered, then everything about Su Yun would be known to the Great Qin Kingdom without missing a single detail!

If Su Yun stood upright and had nothing to hide, it would be fine. But the problem was that Su Yun didn\'t stand straight at all, and his movements were crooked and unsteady.

On his first day here, Su Yun planned to set up a trap and kill a large number of the aristocratic children of the Great Qin Kingdom, plundering their wealth to make money!

If news of this were to spread, the fate of the Deputy Historian of the External Supervisory Office would be easy to imagine.

Ying Ying\'s eyes flashed with a fierce light as she glanced around. The monsters trembled in fear, huddling together and looking at her.

Ying Ying couldn\'t help but feel a little sorry for them and asked, "Are there any of your accomplices in the envoy\'s mansion?"

A few monsters gathered up the courage to bring out a teapot and a few teacups.

The teapot and teacups were a set. They knelt down with a thud, bowing their heads and begging, "I have a family to support, with four children. Please spare us, Miss!"

"Listen carefully, I won\'t harm you, but you are not allowed to talk about anything that happens here."

Ying Ying glanced at them coldly and said, "I will modify your memories so that you can only say what I allow you to say. Also, be more efficient in your work."

She grabbed the neck of the paperweight monster and pulled it in front of her, saying fiercely, "Stop spitting out paper!"

The paperweight monster quickly shut its mouth, but it trembled and sprayed out strips of shredded paper from its nostrils, fluttering in the air.

Seeing this, the other monsters fell silent. The flowers on the head of the vase monster shook and made a clanging sound, and it quickly reached out its hands to hold them.

Ying Ying used her supernatural powers to erase their recent memories. Strings of text and patterns flew out of her mind and entered the minds of these monsters, implanting different memories in them.

She only modified certain memories in these monsters\' spiritual beings to make them loyal to her.

This method seemed mysterious and unfathomable, but it was not impossible to achieve. Ying Ying herself had her memories altered by Xue Qingfu before and couldn\'t remember that she was a scholar named Ying in her past life.

Spiritual beings themselves were spirits, and when spiritualists cultivated their spiritual beings, altering others\' memories required a profound understanding of Daoist methods and supernatural powers. Fortunately, Ying Ying was the most knowledgeable person in Yuanshuo, so this was not difficult for her.

After modifying the memories of these monsters, she ordered them to clean the rooms. The broom monster and the dustpan monster worked together to sweep the floor, the vase monster fetched water, and the teapot monster brewed tea.

The bronze crane lit the incense burner, and the fan monster flew in the air, fanning Ying Ying. Meanwhile, Ying Ying stood on the bookshelf, took out a book, and swallowed a few pages.

Soon, the envoy\'s mansion was completely transformed. The teapot monster had also brewed the tea and ran downstairs with a few teacups, saying to Su Yun, who was cultivating, "Master, please have some tea!"

Su Yun was pondering how to open up the realm of the physical body when he was startled by them. He saw the teapot monster jump onto the table, followed by the teacups. The teapot monster poured the tea itself, filling the cups to about sixty or seventy percent.

Su Yun marveled and picked up a teacup, taking a sip.

Ying Ying flew down from upstairs, feeling proud and showing off.

After listening to her, Su Yun praised, "With Ying Ying managing the internal affairs of the envoy\'s mansion, I can rest assured."

During this period, he had opened up the Deep Abyss and reached the Beginning Movement realm. His primordial qi was constantly being transformed into true yuan in the Deep Abyss, and the true yuan was used to activate his supernatural powers, making them more powerful.

Now, Su Yun\'s primordial qi was visible outside his body, forming a faint shadow.

However, he had not perfected the techniques of the Beginning Movement realm yet.

Ying Ying flew into his spiritual realm and arrived at the Deep Abyss. She saw huge divine and demonic imprints faintly appearing on the inner walls of Su Yun\'s Deep Abyss. These imprints were the traces left by the operation of the Beginning Movement realm techniques.

However, although Qiu Shuijing had taught Su Yun the Beginning Movement realm\'s techniques, he himself had not cultivated them, let alone perfected them.

Qiu Shuijing\'s Beginning Movement realm techniques were just a framework. Whether they could be cultivated and whether there would be any problems during the cultivation process, Qiu Shuijing had no idea. Su Yun had to explore it on his own.

As the true yuan circulated, the walls of the Deep Abyss appeared deep and terrifying.

"Ying Ying, Mr. Shuijing\'s techniques have always focused on internal cultivation. His Beginning Movement realm techniques, like the old sacred scriptures, are constantly developing internally. The Foundation Establishment realm develops the physical body, then the spiritual realm, and then the spiritual being. Now that I have cultivated to the Beginning Movement realm, I can start developing the Deep Abyss."

Su Yun\'s spiritual being hung above the Deep Abyss as he activated the Beginning Movement realm\'s techniques and said, "Continuously developing internally neglects the physical body. A spiritualist\'s physical body can only be cultivated to the Foundation Establishment realm and will no longer grow."

Ying Ying examined the trajectory of his techniques and checked for any mistakes. She said, "That\'s correct. The physical body cannot withstand more primordial qi, so it needs the spiritual realm to bear it. If the spiritual realm cannot bear it, the spiritual being needs to bear it. If the spiritual being is insufficient, then a Deep Abyss needs to be opened up to refine the primordial qi into true yuan."

Su Yun pondered, "Transforming primordial qi into true yuan improves its quality, but the total amount of primordial qi decreases, so the pressure is not as great. What about cultivating to the Deep Abyss realm?"

"In the Deep Abyss realm, even the quantity of true yuan cannot bear it, so the true yuan and the spiritual being are refined into one, forming a Deep Abyss Pearl. After the Deep Abyss Pearl matures, it will transform into a celestial phenomenon spiritual being."

Ying Ying said, "At this point, you have reached the Celestial Phenomenon realm. For five thousand years, spiritualists have been cultivating in this way. However, when I was eating books just now, I came across an old book that Xing Jiangmu brought, written by a scholar named Yue Liuxi from the Sword Pavilion. This book mentioned that if the physical body can be opened up..."

Su Yun\'s heart trembled, "If the physical body can be opened up, then dual cultivation of body and spirit can be achieved!"

Ying Ying said the same thing, curious, "Su Scholar, have you also read this book?"

Su Yun shook his head and paced back and forth.

"Sex" refers to the spiritual being, and "life" refers to the physical body.

If the physical body is destroyed, life is lost!

Miobi Danqing, Han Jun, Tong Qingyun, and others were able to live to over one hundred and seventy years old, nearly two hundred years old, mainly because they obtained the "True Dragon Sixteen Chapters" to strengthen their physical bodies!

Their physical bodies were stronger than other spiritualists\', which invisibly extended their lives and allowed them to live longer!

"And why can gods and demons like Ying Long and Tuo Tu live longer? It is also because their physical bodies are stronger, so their lives are longer!"

Su Yun suddenly stopped and looked up, saying, "In other words, if there is a realm of the physical body, then as the realm improves, the lifespan will also gradually increase!"

Ying Ying was stunned for a moment, and suddenly her primordial qi manifested the book she had seen in the study, flipping through it with a rustling sound.

Indeed, the content of the book was almost identical to what Su Yun had just said!

"Where is Yue Liuxi, the author of this book?" Su Yun asked.

Ying Ying had already read through the book, and its contents were familiar to her. She shook her head and said, "It only says that he is a scholar from the Sword Pavilion. This old book is just his notes, recording some scattered thoughts. It doesn\'t mention where he is..."

Su Yun quickly flipped through it. This notebook contained many incredible ideas, which were imaginative and made him amazed.

For example, the ingenious use of Dongtian was mentioned in this notebook, and there were some messy drafts of Dongtian!

Yue Liuxi mentioned that Emperor Yuanshuo neglected the importance of the physical body when opening up realms, so he lacked the development of the physical body realm.

However, the physical body realm could be supplemented starting from the Beginning Movement realm.

In the notebook, Yue Liuxi mentioned that in the Beginning Movement realm, the Deep Abyss should be opened up, and the techniques of the Beginning Movement realm needed to be imprinted on the Deep Abyss. Therefore, he made a bold assumption that if the Beginning Movement techniques were the same as the Foundation Establishment techniques, a strange phenomenon would occur.

When a spiritualist\'s Beginning Movement techniques were in operation, the imprints on the Deep Abyss would reflect and awaken the imprints on the physical body!

In this way, the goal of opening up a second realm of the physical body could be achieved!

Su Yun\'s mind suddenly cleared, and he couldn\'t help but burst into laughter!

In his laughter, he activated the techniques of the Beginning Movement realm and imprinted the twelve divine and demonic imprints of the Foundation Establishment realm on the Deep Abyss!

Su Yun activated the Heaven and Earth Furnace of the Foundation Establishment realm within his body and simultaneously activated the imprints on the Deep Abyss. The two techniques operated at the same time, and he felt the imprints of the Azure Dragon, Tuo Tu, and others in his physical body strengthen one by one!

The true yuan in the Deep Abyss surged and poured into the imprints of the Azure Dragon, Tuo Tu, and others, enhancing his physical body!

His physical body greedily absorbed the primordial qi, especially after Su Yun incorporated his understanding of the Azure Dragon and Tuo Tu into the Heaven and Earth Furnace of the Foundation Establishment realm, the true yuan refined by the Deep Abyss was not enough to meet the needs of his physical body!

Before long, the true yuan in the spiritual realm was completely depleted!

Su Yun freely activated the seventy-two Dongtian, continuously drawing in the primordial qi from afar, pouring it into the Deep Abyss.

"I must meet this Yue Liuxi!"

Just as he thought of this, there was a loud bang, and the gate of the Yuanshuo envoy\'s mansion flew up and shattered in the air!

The teapot monster on the tea table quickly covered the teapot with a clatter and shrank back, transforming into a well-behaved teapot.

Several Great Qin scholars walked in and shouted loudly, "Which one of you is the envoy from Yuanshuo? We heard that a new Deputy Historian has arrived, someone who defeated Emperor Yuanshuo. Come out quickly and let us see how strong the envoy who defeated Emperor Yuanshuo is!"

Su Yun\'s heart stirred, "Not many people know that I defeated Di Ping, and the only person in the Great Qin Kingdom who knows about this is Cang Jiuhua. Cang Jiuhua is Mr. Shuijing\'s nephew and a disciple of the Sword Pavilion. So, they are scholars from the Sword Pavilion..."

He walked forward, feeling a bit eager to try, "How strong are the scholars from the Sword Pavilion... Oh no, I just cultivated the realm of the physical body, and I\'ve run out of true yuan!"

Su Yun\'s heart sank, but he saw the gazes of the three Great Qin spiritualists from the Sword Pavilion fall on him. One of them used a supernatural power and smiled, "Are you the envoy who defeated Emperor Yuanshuo?"

His supernatural power was extremely exquisite, following the lineage of earth and wood construction. Buildings rose from the ground in layers, and the formations within the buildings were strict, giving Su Yun the illusion of seeing the supernatural powers of the Lou Ban Saint!

Without hesitation, Su Yun threw a punch.

"Boom!"

A thunderous sound rang out, and the Great Qin spiritualist\'s supernatural power was suddenly shattered. The eardrums of the other two Great Qin spiritualists buzzed, feeling a gust of wind blowing past them, and their companion in the center suddenly disappeared.

The two turned around to look, only to see that the gate of the Yuanshuo envoy\'s mansion had been destroyed, leaving behind a huge fist-shaped gap.

On the street in front of the envoy\'s mansion, a long trench had been plowed on the road surface, reaching a depth of four or five feet and a width of about three or four zhang, extending for half a li.

The other end of this trench appeared in front of the Daxia envoy\'s mansion half a li away.

On the wall of the Daxia envoy\'s mansion, there was a huge fist imprint, and in the center of the fist imprint was their missing companion!

The two Sword Pavilion spiritualists\' hearts thumped violently, and cold sweat dripped from their foreheads.

Their companion was embedded in the wall, and even from such a distance, they could still see the horror and blood on their companion\'s face!

"Do you two have money?"

Upon hearing Su Yun\'s voice, the two couldn\'t help but twitch at the corners of their eyes. They each averted their gaze and turned their heads with difficulty.

Su Yun wore a friendly smile and said politely, "I charge for hitting people."
