Chapter 22 The Shaking City
"Ziling, I'll deliver all the medicinal materials you want to Houshan, so you can order it yourself."
"Well, I'll go there right away, the big boss has worked hard."
Zhang Ziling hung up the phone, and then the whole person slowly twisted and disappeared in place.
Not long after Zhang Ziling left, a black jeep came to the corpses of the men in black. Two men in suits were talking indifferently in the car, as if the corpses were not their companions.
"The mission failed again, she seems to have mastered the power of the magic sword."
"Report to the top and ask for additional help. With our current strength, we are no longer the opponent of that woman."
"Have the follow-up work been handled well? These bastards actually threw their bodies on the street!"
"I have already sent someone to deal with it, it's just a little troublesome, but it's not a big problem. Let's not talk about it over there, what to do with these corpses?"
"Take them all back, the power of the magic sword still remains in these wounds, let the guys in the technical department analyze it."
...
Zhang Ziling's community, in the back mountain, had built a huge warehouse before he knew it, and it was filled with hundreds of millions of medicinal materials.
There are 100 shelves in this warehouse, each shelf has ten rows and two sides, and each row has about 100 precious medicinal herbs.
Ginseng, Astragalus, Angelica, Snow Lotus, Ganoderma lucidum...
All the precious medicinal materials in Xichuan Province are placed in this humble warehouse.
But in such a warehouse that contains countless precious medicinal materials, there is no guard.
Of course, all of this was requested by Zhang Ziling himself. Anyway, after a night, the medicinal materials in the warehouse would be completely consumed.
"Although these medicinal materials have low medicinal properties, the quantity is still very objective." Zhang Ziling walked into the warehouse, inspected the rows of medicinal materials, and silently calculated the medicinal essence that he could extract.
After making a rough estimate, Zhang Ziling set up a barrier outside the warehouse to prevent outsiders from approaching here.
After doing all this, Zhang Ziling grabbed his right hand, and the majestic spiritual power burst out.
Zhang Ziling's spiritual power soon formed a cyclical storm, and the medicinal materials in the center of the storm were constantly being crushed, and little green liquid beads flowed out.
Those green droplets were few and far between, and only a few hundred medicinal materials could condense a droplet visible to the naked eye.
And just this little drop of liquid is enough to make up an elephant alive!
Great supplement! Medicinal Essence!
As the medicinal herbs were submerged in the spiritual power storm, Zhang Ziling slowly closed his eyes, sat cross-legged in the void, and gathered the medicinal essences in front of him.
Time passed quickly, and it took Zhang Ziling 12 hours to grind these herbs! And these hundreds of thousands of medicinal materials have all turned into medicinal dregs, covering the entire warehouse.
"The medicinal essence squeezed out of these herbs is only worth a high-level elixir. It seems that using this method to restore one's cultivation is not a good strategy."
Zhang Ziling frowned and stared at the medicinal essence the size of a glass marble in the palm of his hand, and muttered to himself.
Looking at the medicinal dregs in this place, Zhang Ziling shook his head and withdrew the barrier that shrouded the warehouse.
As the barrier set up by Zhang Ziling disappeared, the terrifying fragrance emanating from the medicinal essence escaped instantly, covering the entire sky.
"What kind of fragrance is this? It smells so good!" In a park more than ten kilometers away from the back mountain, people who were doing morning exercises stopped and were attracted by the fragrance.
People who smell the strange fragrance are all invigorated and full of strength, and some people have even recovered from minor injuries and illnesses accumulated over the years! Everyone invariably looked towards the back mountain where Zhang Ziling was located.
"I forgot, this pure medicinal essence has a strong fragrance." Zhang Ziling, who had just removed the barrier, immediately realized the problem and swallowed it directly.
All the medicinal essences that were enough to meet the needs of hundreds of thousands of people were absorbed by Zhang Ziling alone.
The strange fragrance disappeared, but the short time it existed, it caused a huge sensation in Nanzhou City, and countless people rushed to the back mountain.
As soon as the medicinal essence entered Zhang Ziling's body, it melted into the blood, and was completely divided up by the spiritual power in the meridians, without causing any waves.
You must know that if these medicinal essences are swallowed by the alien monks on the earth, I am afraid that they will not be able to withstand the medicinal properties, and they will explode and die.
But in Zhang Ziling's body, this medicinal essence ended up being useless.
"There is still too little medicinal essence, this injury has not improved at all!" Zhang Ziling frowned, and a burst of irritability suddenly rose in his heart.
"When this goes on, when will I regain my strength?" Zhang Ziling's eyes turned red, all the dregs on the ground burned and turned into ashes. Zhang Ziling was bathed in flames, like a demon revived in hell!
"Low-level medicinal materials, thin spiritual power, fragile soil!" Zhang Ziling became more and more irritable, "Where is the spiritual source of this earth!"
Zhang Ziling raised his head and roared, the entire warehouse burst into pieces, the violent spiritual power shot straight into the sky, and the sky seemed to stir up a little ripple.
An earthquake of magnitude 3 occurred in Nanzhou City. Citizens who were frantically rushing to the back mountain stopped their footsteps or cars and stared blankly at the blood-red sky.
"Tian Dao, won't you answer me?" Zhang Ziling's eyes became more and more red, and the corner of his mouth evoked a wicked smile, "Then I will ask in person."
Blood flames ignited on Zhang Ziling's body, and the remaining spiritual energy in his body burned wildly.
It has been too long since he came back to Earth, but there is no trace of his sister at all. As the supreme being of another world and an existence on an equal footing with the other world, he has endured it long enough!
Every world has its own spiritual source, and this spiritual source is the root of the spiritual power of this world. In a world without a spiritual source, the spiritual power will slowly flow away until it is exhausted.
When the spiritual power is completely exhausted, the earth will also become dead, which is the arrival of the ice age.
When Zhang Ziling came back, he found that the spiritual source of the earth had disappeared. These days, he had been waiting for Tiandao to explain to him, but the earth's Tiandao had not come to him.
The anger that had been suppressed for a long time finally burst out after the failure of the plan to extract the medicinal essence to restore strength!
If the spiritual source still existed, he would have recovered his strength long ago!
If Tiandao tells him the reason for the disappearance of the spiritual source, he can also help him solve it!
He is trying to communicate with the earth and heaven every day, but what he has been waiting for has been silence!
In the face of Zhang Ziling's increasing pressure, there was no movement in the sky, and there was no sign of the Tao of Heaven.
Zhang Ziling smiled wickedly, and two black wings of light formed behind him!
"Shangxian! Hurry up and stop!"
Just as Zhang Ziling was about to break through the sky, a familiar shout stopped Zhang Ziling.
Zhang Ziling looked sideways and saw the old Taoist priest running towards him frantically in a tattered Taoist uniform.
"Shangxian! If you don't stop, this city will collapse!"
The old Taoist ran to Zhang Ziling panting and shouted loudly.
Hearing the old Taoist priest's words, Zhang Ziling's scarlet eyes gradually became clearer, the black wings behind him also turned into light spots in the sky, and the burning spiritual power returned to calm.
The stronger and stronger earthquake finally disappeared.
"It's my fault." Zhang Ziling said apologetically.
If the old Taoist hadn't come to stop him who was in a fit of rage, he would have hit the sky now, and Nanzhou City below would naturally not be spared.
In this Nanzhou City, there are still people who Zhang Ziling cares about, and he can't let this city be destroyed.
Seeing Zhang Ziling calm down, the old Taoist breathed a sigh of relief, but there was boundless fear in his heart.
What kind of power does the man in front of him possess?
And someone with this kind of power actually wanted to accept him as a disciple?
Thinking of this, the old Taoist felt a little terrified and his back became cold.
"Why did you come here?" Zhang Ziling, who had regained his composure, stared at the old Taoist and asked.
Zhang Ziling stared at the old Taoist furiously, but he could only bite the bullet and say: "I have news about the elixir, and there was a strange smell here before, I thought it must be the movement made by you, Shangxian, so I will come over."
"News about the elixir?" Zhang Ziling raised his eyebrows with joy, and hurriedly asked, "Where is it?"
"West China, Kunlun Mountains!"
...
"Are you going away for a while?"
Chu Qi suddenly stood up from the sofa and stared at Zhang Ziling who had just returned in surprise.
"I'm going to Kunlun, and it may take a month or two to come back."
Hearing this sentence, Chu Qi didn't know why, and was a little sad.
Maybe it was because she was used to living with Zhang Ziling, and Zhang Ziling's sudden departure made her feel a little terrified.
"Okay, it's not like I'm not coming back, why make this expression." Zhang Ziling smiled and patted Chu Qi's head.
"Do you have to go?"
"Must go."
"Okay, I'll wait for you at home."
Chu Qi did not hold back too much, she could see that going to Kunlun this time was very important to Zhang Ziling.
Even if she curled up on the sofa all night.
"Wear this on your body, don't take it off." After a while, Zhang Ziling gave Chu Qi a jade pendant.
This jade pendant was made by Zhang Ziling from the old-fashioned cold light spiritual jade, and a little of Zhang Ziling's spiritual power was stored in it.
Chu Qi took the jade pendant and put it on his neck obediently, feeling a burst of warmth entering his body.
"Well, I'll wear it all the time."
Seeing that Chu Qi was wearing the jade pendant, Zhang Ziling said a brief goodbye to Chu Qi and went out.
Looking at the closed door, Chu Qi curled up on the sofa again, touching the jade pendant with one hand, and picked up his newly bought mobile phone with the other, staring at the phone screen in fascination.
On the phone screen, there are dozens of missed call messages.
"You...you must come back early!"
Downstairs, the old Taoist priest had been waiting for a long time.
"Shangxian, are you ready to go?" The old Taoist priest was still wearing a worn Taoist robe, and Zhang Ziling was taken aback.
"You plan to wear a robe on the road all the time?" Zhang Ziling wondered.
The old man smiled and rubbed his hands, and said, "Shangxian doesn't know anything, all the expenses I spent on my tour of China were earned by my fortune-telling all the way. Since fortune-telling requires wearing this Taoist robe, over time I got used to wearing it like this. "
"I earned it from fortune-telling all the way?" Zhang Ziling wondered: "Didn't you say that many high-ranking officials and nobles have to spend half their wealth to beg you? Why do you still need to rely on street fortune-telling to earn travel expenses?"
Lao Daogan smiled and said: "I came from Yizong, and the teacher has always had rules, not to spend ill-gotten wealth, and most of those people's money came from unclean, so I didn't take any money I earned for those people's fortune-telling. All donated."
Zhang Ziling looked at the old Taoist with a little surprise, "I didn't expect your consciousness to be so high, no wonder it's so easy to understand, it turns out that merit has always been close to you!"
"Shangxian is joking!"
"Forget it, I'll pay for the toll this time, I can't tell the fortune all the way!" Zhang Ziling smiled and called for a taxi.
Find the elixir, just recover a little strength...
Sister, we will be able to meet soon.
