Chapter 398: Arrangement of the Evil Vein

From the 9th day of November when Meng Zhou entered the Refining Furnace Wasteland to the end of December, what Meng Zhou did was no different from what he did in the Hongze Wasteland.

With the experience of the Hongze Wasteland, Meng Zhou was more calm from beginning to end.

Not only did he complete the assigned tasks on time, because he had more time than the last time in the Hongze Wasteland, and in addition to the half-month wait in the Xingxiu Sea before entering the Refining Furnace Wasteland, Meng Zhou was completely in a state of "doing nothing".

By the end of the year, when Meng Zhou finished all activities and prepared for the upcoming New Year's retreat, the "Wanxiangzhu" had made great progress compared to when he just left the Hongze Wasteland.

Added 130,000 points of master's realm skill experience, which made this skill have more accumulation in the master's realm.

【Master Wanxiangzhu 188,000/1.6 million】

At the same time, with the continuous supply of a large amount of high-quality heart essence, the individual strength of the golden beetle group has been improved from the initial entry of the third-level upper grade, which is only equivalent to the seventh level of Jindan, to the level that can be compared with the ninth level of Jindan, and the peak of the third level is within reach.

The price of achieving such an amazing achievement in just a few months is that Meng Zhou almost never stopped during the eighth level of Jindan, and all the heart essence accumulated in the spirit gourd space over time was consumed.

Now, the remaining heart essence in the spirit gourd space is all accumulated by Meng Zhou after his cultivation broke through the ninth level of Jindan. Its reserves are much more than the heart essence accumulated during the eighth level of Jindan, which has been consumed.

Meng Zhou weighed it in his mind. According to the previous consumption of these golden beetles, it feels that it is enough for the golden beetle group to reach the peak level of the third level anyway.

"It's enough, there should be a lot of surplus... Besides, there are still four or five years left, I can continue to provide more blood and essence!"

Thinking this way, Meng Zhou's heart was completely settled. When he was about to turn ninety-four and ninety-five, he entered a deep state of meditation.

Soon after, as a mysterious force silently penetrated into every corner of the world, the world seemed to be refreshed and entered a new year.

And Meng Zhou was in this state, hiding in a small pink lotus. With the help of this mysterious force, his spirit, energy and spirit cooperated, connected, operated and refined with each other, and his cultivation was gradually improved step by step with a slow and firm pace in this process.

In the blink of an eye, a month passed.

When Meng Zhou opened his eyes again, it was the late night of the 30th day of the first lunar month.

……

[Cultivation progress +720, the ninth level of the Jindan 7485/10,000]

……

After finishing this retreat, Meng Zhou just sorted it out a little and took action immediately.

He left the "Lotus Space", put away the golden double-stemmed lotus, and after cleaning up all the ends as much as possible, Meng Zhou left the hiding place where he had lived for nearly three months.

After leaving this third-level evil vein, Meng Zhou was performing the "Five Elements Escape" and rushed to another third-level evil vein more than 200,000 miles away at an astonishing speed.

Meng Zhou, who was on his way quickly, was mostly thinking about the newly added area in the "Interpretation World".

On the day Meng Zhou came to this area on November 9 last year, after finding a suitable place to live, Meng Zhou immediately arranged fifty Tai Sui bodies out. They did their "old business" and spread the "visual anchor point" throughout the entire Refining Furnace Wasteland at the fastest speed.

Then Meng Zhou arranged 180 "transparent round mirrors" out.

By mid-December, when the fifty Tai Sui bodies completed their missions as scheduled and returned one after another, the "transparent round mirror" completely lit up the entire Refining Furnace Wasteland in the "interpretation world" with the support of the "visual anchor point" throughout the Refining Furnace Wasteland, and it was constantly refreshed.

After that, even during Meng Zhou's one-month retreat, the "transparent round mirrors" continued to run along fixed tracks in the Refining Furnace Wasteland, and the areas corresponding to the Refining Furnace Wasteland in the "interpretation world" were constantly replaced and refreshed.

Now, although Meng Zhou has only been in the Refining Furnace Wasteland for less than three months, he can already boast that "no one knows the Refining Furnace Wasteland better than me."

At this moment, the reason why Meng Zhou left the third-level evil vein where he had lived for nearly three months and went to an unfamiliar third-level evil vein was very simple for him. It was because from the overall perspective of the Refining Furnace Wasteland, the latter was closer to the center, while the former was much more marginal.

Soon, Meng Zhou arrived above his destination.

Although the detailed information provided by the "Interpretation World" was almost the same as the real world, Meng Zhou still spent several days to conduct a quick visit and investigation of the third-level evil vein he selected.

After ensuring that all the conditions of this evil vein were consistent with the information provided to him by the "Interpretation World", Meng Zhou began the next step.

The fifty Tai Sui bodies that had just rested in the spirit gourd space for more than a month were summoned out again by Meng Zhou.

After summoning these Tai Sui bodies, Meng Zhou did not arrange "them" out immediately, but took the groups of soul clones out of the eyebrows of each Tai Sui body, broke up the original thoughts, and injected new "programs" into them.

In this process, the fifty Tai Sui bodies were like fifty terracotta warriors, with the same faces, lined up in a neat queue, standing there motionless.

Another figure that looked exactly like "them" walked slowly among them, stopping and starting, and occasionally reaching out to grab and pat "them" at the center of their brows, looking weird and a little creepy.

Meng Zhou, the person involved, didn't feel anything about this, nor did he think there was anything wrong with it.

After giving a comprehensive "update" to the soul clones of the fifty Tai Sui bodies, Meng Zhou waved his hand to let these Tai Sui bodies disperse and go their own way.

The fifty Tai Sui bodies that received the order to disperse, originally identical in shape and face, quickly changed, becoming taller, shorter, fatter, thinner, older, younger, and even female...

While each of them was undergoing different changes, some of them burrowed underground, some flew into the sky, and some were already flashing and darting among the rugged rocks, disappearing into the distance.

These Tai Sui bodies that were scattered in all directions did not leave too far.

Some of them even stopped within Meng Zhou's sight.

"They" who stopped seemed to casually use various methods on the ground below.

Some of them stomped their feet on the ground, and the steady and deep ground power became active under their mobilization, or turned into winding dark ditches and open grooves, or bulged into straight or various winding lines.

Or they turned into a deep pit like a well, some shallower, some deeper.

Or they bulged a solitary peak with towering rocks...

And this is only part of the many actions of the fifty Tai Sui bodies.

Or they enlarged or reduced some existing terrain, or through clever arrangements, made the terrain and landforms that already existed there more prominent, more conspicuous, or more hidden and more difficult to detect...

Because all the actions of these Tai Sui bodies were based on the original foundation of this third-level evil vein, they took advantage of the situation, which not only saved the Tai Sui body's energy, but also made all these changes seem inconspicuous.

Even if a cultivator from this world who claims to have a deep understanding of this evil vein came to the scene in person, unless he had a method similar to the "Interpretation World", it would be difficult to detect that this seemingly unchanged third-level evil vein had actually changed silently.

As the fifty Tai Sui bodies spread out more and more, this change quickly spread throughout the entire third-level evil vein.

Meng Zhou stood still.

He looked at the third-level evil vein in the "Interpretation World" after it was constantly updated.

After being "fine-tuned" by the fifty Tai Sui bodies, this third-level evil vein gradually showed a sense of exquisiteness after being carved by the unpolished jade.

From the perspective of a fourth-level middle-grade spiritualist, the third-level evil vein after "fine-tuning" is like a river channel after being dredged;

From the perspective of a fourth-level middle-grade knot master, those lines winding on the ground are like the movement of ropes, and those depressions and ridges are the "knots" formed by the "ropes" wandering on the ground;

From the perspective of a fourth-level middle-grade talisman array, the third-level evil vein after "fine-tuning" naturally fits the mystery of the talisman array;

If you look at it from the perspective of cultivation, the third-level evil vein after "fine-tuning" is forming a series of "meridians" and "acupoints" that are exclusive to it...

As early as when Meng Zhou was still in the Juye Wilderness, Meng Zhou had already practiced a lot of first- and second-level spiritual vein upgrades.

Now Meng Zhou, whether in terms of the height or breadth of his vision, is incomparable to that time.

Not to mention that the upgrade of the first- and second-level spiritual veins can be easily achieved, even if any third-level spiritual vein is placed in front of him, it won't take long for him to give a clear upgrade plan.

——Of course, the success of the upgrade depends on the quality and foundation of the spirit vein itself.

Is there any fundamental difference between spirit veins and evil veins?

Actually, there is no such thing.

Although the upgrade plan for spirit veins cannot be copied as it is, it can be directly used on the evil veins.

But for Meng Zhou, he only needs to make a very simple change to apply all the experience he has accumulated in upgrading spirit veins to the upgrade of evil veins.

…

Meng Zhou walked in the third-level evil vein after being "fine-tuned".

From time to time, he would have more items in his hands, which he threw into the ground below.

Some of these items are spiritual materials of various grades, and there are also tools of different grades and functions.

These things were saved by Meng Zhou when he was in the Juye Wilderness, and most of them came from the collection of the Lihen Sect.

Except for a few of these things that caught Meng Zhou's eye, most of them were treated no differently from "garbage" in Meng Zhou's place.

Every time he counted the space of the spirit gourd, Meng Zhou had the idea of ​​disposing of these "garbage", but with the Xingxiu Palace coming out of the mountain, in order to avoid unnecessary twists and turns caused by these items with the characteristics of the Lihen Sect's mark, Meng Zhou also gave up this idea, and these "garbage" have been accumulated until now.

Now, the opportunity is right, Meng Zhou did not hesitate at all, and threw them into the evil vein below.

As for what these items he threw in are, it is actually not important.

At Meng Zhou's current height, he has already reached the realm of "seeing mountains as not mountains, and seeing water as not water".

Those spiritual materials, or other various utensils and items, in his eyes, are only "spirituality" and "firewood".

As for what the "shape" is, it is not important at all.

Ten days later, fifty Tai Sui bodies completed the "fine-tuning and reshaping" of the entire third-level evil vein.

Then, under the command of Meng Zhou, "they" used various local resources and the naturally generated spirituality to do the final "solidification and nourishment of the essence, and strengthening of the qi" for the third-level evil vein that had completed the "fine-tuning and reshaping".

Ten days later, Meng Zhou had completed all the work.

In the "interpretation world", Meng Zhou looked at the third-level evil vein that had been reshaped by himself from a macro perspective.

In his eyes, this third-level evil vein located in the central area of ​​the furnace wasteland became a magical "dantian".

Meng Zhou imitated it in his mind.

In the "interpretation world", as Meng Zhou's thoughts changed, the aura of this third-level evil vein began to flow smoothly along the "meridians".

In this continuous flow, the aura of the third-level evil vein became active and rising little by little.

They met, merged, and condensed in those "acupoints".

Finally, they completed the final "meeting" in a canyon basin in the center of the third-level evil vein.

In an instant, the entire evil vein seemed to become different.

At this point, according to Meng Zhou's deduction, the third-level evil vein will also be successfully upgraded to the fourth-level evil land.

But looking at this result, Meng Zhou did not feel happy in his heart.

"Is it successful?"

"Is it really that simple?"

Meng Zhou asked in his heart, and fell into deep thought.

After a long time, Meng Zhou let out a long breath.

It is indeed not that simple.

But, the situation is not too bad.

"If everything is ideal, then things will indeed develop in the direction I deduced."

"And the problem lies here. The premise of success is that everything is as 'ideal' as I deduced, but in real life, this is simply impossible."

"First of all, I must make sure it can reach the last step!"

"It is too risky to rely on it to absorb its own nutrients. I need to incorporate more third-level evil veins into it and let them all become 'refueling bottles'!

Make sure this evil vein will not be exhausted and cannot reach the end."

"Secondly, the upgrade process must be accelerated on the basis of the current one!"

"From the beginning to the end, the shorter the time, the better!"

"If the interval in the middle is too long, it is possible that the Nascent Soul of the Xingxiu Palace will descend and forcibly interrupt it."

"Even if the Nascent Soul of the Xingxiu Palace does not descend, if the abnormality here attracts the attention of the Dan in this world, it will also bring variables beyond the deduction."

"To eliminate these accidents, the best way is to make the whole process faster than they can react."

"By the time they react and understand what happened, this evil vein has completed the upgrade!" (End of this chapter)
