At the foot of Maoshan Mountain.

Buzzing.

In mid-air, the void was like a rippling lake surface. First there was a burst of twisted ripples, just like a stone falling into the lake surface, causing layer upon layer of ripples.

When the twisted ripples reached their peak, the void suddenly condensed, and then, an old man wearing a black robe and a white beard walked out of the void.

As soon as this white-bearded old man appeared, the spiritual energy of the surrounding world seemed to be suppressed, and even the air became a bit heavier.

For a moment, this void seemed to become as heavy and thick as the earth.

"Hey, the old man, Maoshan Patriarch [Maotian], has met the Maoshan ancestors."

It's a pity that after the old man appeared, he didn't rush to fight Zhou Changqing. Instead, he clasped his hands and said to Zhou Changqing respectfully.

"Master Patriarch!"

"You, what are you doing?"

At the foot of the mountain, [Maoshan Senior Brother] Shi Jian stood there blankly, looking at how even his ancestor would call the young man in front of him a senior. His mouth opened as if he was planning to say something.

However, in the end, he didn't say anything.

As the eldest brother of Maoshan and the acting head of Maoshan, Shi Jian's emotional intelligence and IQ naturally go without saying.

It is precisely because of this reason that even though Shi Jian had many doubts in his heart, they were all gone in the words of Maoshan Patriarch, ‘Maoshan Ancestors’.

Maoshan ancestors.

Rather than Senior Maoshan.

Ancestors refer to relatives and friends of a sect.

Senior refers to the master of a sect.

Maotian's words not only named Zhou Changqing as a senior master, but also pointed out that Zhou Changqing was not from Maoshan.

…………

mid-air.

Maotian, who had a white beard, was holding the seal with both hands and looked at the calm young man in front of him with a complicated expression.

Ordinary practitioners may not even be able to feel it, but as a [Third Realm Monk] who has condensed the Dharma, the powerful soul power contained in Maotai can be clearly detected.

, Zhou Changqing's body contains this kind of terrifying power that can subvert Maoshan.

That's extreme ice enough to freeze everything.

That was a terrifying dragon power that could wipe out everything.

That is a terrifying soul that is enough to crush countless practitioners with the power of the soul alone.

All of these, if you take out any kind of power, it is enough to make Maotai frightened, let alone these three powers gathered in one person.

"My dear!"

"Such a terrifying power is simply superior to [Third Realm Monk]. Could it be that this young man's strength has reached the level of [Fourth Realm Monk]?"

"But, when did an amazingly talented practitioner appear in this world?"

"The opponent's aura and lightning skills alone are enough to subvert the entire world of practice."

At this moment, Maotian's little head was spinning rapidly. He was thinking about where did such a powerful fourth-level monk in front of him come from?

…………

The other side.

"Buzz."

Visible to the naked eye, a blue fairy soul power containing cold air flashed from Zhou Changqing's eyes.

Buzzing.

A powerful immortal soul power was immediately released from Zhou Changqing's body and filled the outside world. All of a sudden, it swept through the void at the foot of the mountain and spread far away.

The power of this immortal soul is so powerful that even the two practitioners Shi Jian and Mao Tian saw that the surrounding void seemed to become like ripples of water, and one after another seemed to be materialized.

The translucent ripples continue to spread in all directions, with no end visible as far as the eye can see.

"What a terrifying soul power!"

After Shi Jian witnessed this mysterious scene in front of him, he couldn't help but widen his eyes and shouted in disbelief.

You must know that Shi Jian is a spiritual practitioner with a powerful spirit. Otherwise, he would not be able to control the thunder with the power of his spirit. So, he just talks about the strength of this spirit. With his [qi training]

The cultivation level of Dzogchen is not even inferior to that of a practitioner in the "Early Stage of the Third Realm".

It is precisely because of this reason that Shi Jian's heart has always been filled with a certain kind of pride.

Now, after Shi Jian witnessed Zhou Changqing's powerful soul power with his own eyes, the pride in his heart was suddenly shattered.

Fireflies and bright moon.

This is the difference in soul power between Shi Jian and Zhou Changqing.

"True heart is a powerful soul power!"

"Even compared to me, a strong person in [Dharma Realm], he is powerful enough to easily crush him!"

At the same time, in the air, after noticing the powerful soul power released by Zhou Changqing, Mao Tian couldn't help but reveal a bitter smile on his old face, and he became more and more in awe of Zhou Changqing in his heart.

…………

In fact.

Long before Zhou Changqing took action against Shi Jian, the Maoshan Patriarch [Maotian] was already hiding in the dark and secretly spying on Zhou Changqing.

At that time.

Mao Tian used this "Maoshan Qi Watching Technique" to get a glimpse of Zhou Changqing's origins...

However, it was better not to look at it. Maota was almost shocked when he looked at it.

At that moment, Maotian could clearly sense that Zhou Changqing's body seemed to be covered with a layer of mysterious power. Even though the other party was standing here, among them, no matter how Maotian looked, he could not spy on Zhou Changqing's body.

Any details.

Flowers in the mirror, moon in the water.

It seems virtual but not virtual, and it seems real but not real.

To Maotian's eyes, Zhou Changqing seemed like an ordinary person. However, the void around him seemed to be shrouded in a hazy mist.

He was unable to spy on Zhou Changqing's luck, but instead, he was discovered by Zhou Changqing.

…………

After a while.

Zhou Changqing also withdrew the released immortal soul power. With a move of his right hand, a huge force fell on Maotian, moving the opponent's figure alive in front of him.

"Senior, senior..."

"I don't know what you do if you come to Maoshan, senior?"

Facing this powerful spiritual power that restrained him, Maotian's eyes suddenly shrank. Immediately, he lowered his head lower and asked Zhou Changqing more respectfully.

In the world of spiritual practice, the strong are respected.

Although Zhou Changqing is so young, in terms of seniority, the old man Maotian has to call Zhou Changqing "senior".

"Nothing, I just passed by Maoshan by chance..."

"I thought of an old friend, so I took a look at the boundaries of Maoshan. I didn't mean to provoke Maoshan."

Hearing this, Zhou Changqing waved his hand and said with suspicion.

Maotian, who was a little itchy at first, had a thought in his mind after hearing Zhou Changqing's words that didn't seem to be fake, and he quickly asked: "I don't know, which of my ancestors in Maoshan is related to me, senior? Maybe, I can

To convey the words of my seniors..."

You must know that in the past five hundred years, due to the weakening of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, many practitioners have been unable to continue practicing and become immortals. Therefore, some aspiring people have instead ascended to the underworld...

After all, it is better to live an extra life as a Yin God than to be reincarnated after running out of life.

test.

Zhou Changqing knew very well that Maotian's words seemed to be for his own good, but in fact, they were still testing him about Zhou Changqing's origins.

[What a pity, the old friends I want to find are Uncle Jiu, Taoist Priest Four Eyes and Maoshan Shi Jian...]

[They don't know the world of "Mr. Zombie" here, but in other worlds...]

When he thought of this, Zhou Changqing raised his head, looked at Maotian up and down, and said meaningfully: "It's you, although your cultivation has reached the level of [Faxiang Taoist Master], but I see your spirit.

If your spirit is damaged, you only have ten years to live at most, have you thought of a way out?"

As soon as these words came out, Maotian's smiling old face turned pale in an instant.

Obviously, Zhou Changqing's words hit his vital point immediately.
