Chapter 92: The three gods meet, the monster is found in the dream, and the preaching painting is obtained! (Three more)

The Great Dream of Spring and Autumn is a profound secret method for cultivating the soul. As the state religion of Dali, this secret method has a very profound understanding of the essence of the soul.

The two souls of heaven and earth are always outside, only the soul of life lives in his body.

The gathering of the Heaven Soul, Earth Soul and Life Soul is called the 'Confluence of the Three Gods'.

However, the "Convergence of Three Gods" is difficult to achieve. Even practitioners cannot control the convergence of three gods. The Heaven Soul and Earth Soul will only occasionally resonate with the Fate Soul.

To truly achieve the 'intersection of three gods' and the unity of mind and soul, one must reach an extremely high level.

Zhao Xing is practicing the introductory chapter of the Great Dream Spring and Autumn. His soul is constantly getting stronger, which is equivalent to cultivating his soul.

Although the Heavenly Soul and the Earthly Soul cannot be said to be "cultivating" yet, the relationship between them is also strengthening.

After Zhao Xing found himself uneasy, he immediately concluded that this was because his life soul was touched by the earth soul.

After practicing the introductory chapter, Zhao Xing closed his eyes and soon fell asleep leaning against the carriage, his breathing becoming calm.

He soon fell into a dream.

"Om~"

In his dream, Zhao Xing saw a carriage.

"A purple-horned horse is pulling a carriage. Brother Shen is rich now. He even has this kind of carriage."

"Don't make fun of me. This is just a breeding stock with a little bit of exotic animal blood."

The carriage was driving on the official road outside the city. This scene completely replicated Zhao Xing's memory, including the conversation with Shen Zhui yesterday, even every detail.

“This is the Dream Preservation Method.”

“Every detail is completely reproduced and preserved in the dream.”

"From here, Shen Zhui and I will leave the city and head to Anping Town."

Zhao Xing felt it quietly.

This is not just a bird's eye view, the feeling is the same.

For example, Zhao Xing's emotions when he teased Shen Zhui, his happy emotions when chatting with Shen Zhui, the relaxation when petting the cat, and the peaceful feeling in his heart when he came to Anping Town and saw the farmers working in the fields.

"Through the dream storage method, you can recall everything in your memory. Emotions are only the most superficial. Even the extreme feelings can be relived again."

Zhao Xing used the dream retention method to find the reason for his unrest. If it was really the touch of the earth soul, Zhao Xing would be able to feel it again.

"Brother Zhao, hurry up!"

"No hurries."

This is Zhao Xing casting a spell, controlling the Donghu Pearl to absorb the clouds and rain above Anping Town.

At this time, through the dream storage method, Zhao Xing even relived the feeling when casting the spell.

Then I arrived at the village head's house in Anping Town, learned about Huang Silang, went to the Niu family compound, met Huang Silang, and then took him to farm...

During this process, Zhao Xing never felt anything was wrong.

A peaceful night passed, and the next day.

Zhao Xing and Shen Zhui heard that Huang Silang was gambling again, so they rushed to the Niu family compound and then to Niu Gui to open the door...

"Ok?"

Zhao Xing suddenly felt something slightly unusual.

“Is it from this time?”

"Is there something wrong with the Niu Family Courtyard? Or is Niu Gui expensive?"

After entering the door, Shen Zhui split the gambling table.

Huang Silang woke up and tried to escape from the back door, but Shen Zhui blocked him. Zhao Xing looked at the rice pickers...

In the dream, the middle-aged man with prominent cheekbones was talking to me, and next to him stood a woman with a barrel waist.

Throughout the process, the abnormal feeling gradually intensified.

After that, when I go out, the feeling gradually weakens, until I walk far away, and then the feeling quickly disappears.

"Ok?"

Zhao Xing relived the dream over and over again, and finally found that the peak of the abnormal feeling appeared in this scene:
"I am Chen Deshun, and this is the lowly Wu Chen..."

After the middle-aged man said this, the abnormal feeling reached its peak and then slowly weakened.

Although the overall feeling was very vague and difficult to identify, Zhao Xing's soul at this time came into contact with the free earth soul.

If you compare carefully, you will notice it.

After reviewing it several times, Zhao Xing discovered that the abnormal stimulation of the earth soul actually occurred when he arrived in Anping Town.

"If we say that the abnormality of the earth soul is normal when we go from the city to Anping Town, it is set to one."

"On the first day, I met Huang Silang outside the Niu family compound. That was one point one."

"The next day, I entered the Niu family compound and met Niu Gui, reaching one point five."

"And talking to that rice guest is two."

Zhao Xing made a comparison.

He waved.

"Om~"

The scene in the dream changed and went back to the moment before entering the Niu family compound.

This time, Zhao Xing puts himself in the role and relives the experience from a first-person perspective.

Open the 'dream deduction' of the dream storage method.

"Niu Gui, will you please let us in?" Zhao Xing asked, "We are coming in now, just to take a look. If we invite Ling in again, it won't be so easy."

"Well, please come in, my lords."

After Zhao Xing entered the room, without waiting for Shen Zhui to take action, he immediately looked at the group of rice eaters squatting outside the hall.

At the same time, lock on to the middle-aged couple.

"Thunder noose!"

Zhao Xing said nothing as lightning flashed on his palms, quickly forming a lightning noose that locked onto the couple.

"Brother Zhao, what are you doing?" Shen Zhui was stunned.

The middle-aged couple, who looked simple and honest, also looked confused after being locked up.

"Thunder Palm!"

Zhao Xing used thunder magic again and slapped it over.

"Kill!" The middle-aged couple who seemed simple and honest suddenly became ferocious, and then a bloody figure burst out from their bodies. This bloody figure was covered with countless twisted arms and heads, as if many flesh and blood bodies were combined together, and then exploded and fiercely attacked Zhao Xing.

"Oh!"

The entire Niu family compound was shrouded in blood, completely engulfing everything.

"what!"

The dream was suddenly broken, Zhao Xing's soul felt a throbbing, and then woke up from the dream.

"Meow!" Feeling its owner's palpitations, the bobcat suddenly arched its body, its fur standing on end, as if it had encountered a life-and-death crisis.

"Brother Zhao, what's wrong with you?" Shen Zhui was shocked because Zhao Xing's face was terribly pale, without a trace of blood, and his breath had also dropped a lot.

"I had a nightmare." Zhao Xing smiled and wiped the sweat from his forehead. "Maybe I was too tired these past two days."

"Nightmare?" Shen Zhui was a little confused. What kind of nightmare would cause such a big reaction?
"I dreamed that my father was ill." Zhao Xing said, "Brother Shen, I am worried about my family, so I will ignore Huang Silang for now. I will just tell the head of the village, and let's go back to the city first."

"Okay." Although Shen Zhui was a little confused, he didn't ask any more questions. Although he ended his trip to Anping Town early because of a dream, it was understandable that Zhao Xing mentioned his family.

"Gee~" The carriage turned around and headed towards Gucheng.

In the Niu family compound, the head of the Sanwan Hall, who goes by the alias Chen Deshun, and the deputy head of the Sanwan Hall were going to the Niu family's fields with the rice harvesters to start their afternoon work.

Sudden--

A red light flashed in Chen Deshun's eyes, and his heart was beating fast.

"Ok?"

Chen Deshun's expression changed slightly, with some confusion in his eyes.

The woman next to him also stopped. The two looked at each other and immediately made an excuse to leave and came under a shady locust tree. "Did you feel it?" Chen Deshun looked at the woman.

"Yes." The woman nodded heavily. "What's going on? Why did the Venerable issue a warning?"

"Could it be that the gods from the Gucheng Temple were patrolling and triggered the warning?"

"I don't know." Chen Deshun's face was solemn. "I have to go back and ask the guardian. You and I will strengthen our protection first."

"Will you come or should I?" the woman asked.

"Let me do it." Chen Deshun said, "My cultivation is higher than yours, I can bear it."

"it is good."

Chen Deshun faced the locust tree, secretly unbuttoned his clothes, and then cut open his chest with his fingertips, revealing scarlet blood.

The blood flowed out, but did not fall down. Instead, it flowed on the belly, forming a pattern.

His eyes were dull and his pupils lost focus, and as the pattern slowly condensed into a ghost head, his eyes turned completely blood red.

A distorted bloody human face appeared on his belly.

The woman immediately squatted down, held Chen Deshun's waist with both hands, and sucked his blood from his belly.

After a while, the blood completely disappeared and Chen Deshun returned to normal.

"Ahem...why do you need so much this time?" Chen Deshun's face turned pale.

"I think we should leave Anping Town first." The woman stood up and said, "It's not advisable to stay here for long."

"Okay, I'll go talk to the Niu family."

"Da da da~"

After the carriage entered the city, Zhao Xing, who was in the carriage, let out a long sigh.

When he used the dream retention technique in Anping Town, his life soul was sensed by the earth soul and felt a throbbing sensation, which made him feel frightened, as if something was spying on him.

But he disappeared again afterwards, so Zhao Xing didn't dare to say anything more, let alone return to Niu's house to investigate, but hurried back to the city.

"Could this feeling be the incarnation of the evil god of Xuantian Sect?" Zhao Xing recalled the methods of Xuantian Sect. Whenever Xuantian Sect caused trouble in the Great Zhou, they would definitely carry the image of the evil god, which contained the incarnation of the Yin god.

It was just like when he went to look for the river fisherman and ran into Meng Yun with the clone of Donghu Bo.

In his previous life, Zhao Xing had joined the Xuantian Sect and was very familiar with these methods. To avoid reconnaissance and monitoring, he must have this thing in conjunction with the Xuantian Sect's concealment method.

However, he did not expect that by sensing the earth soul through the dream storage method, he could actually discover some clues.

"The Great Dream Spring and Autumn is indeed a top-notch method. I have just entered the door, but I can actually discover abnormalities through the cause and effect soul."

"There must be something wrong with that middle-aged couple!"

"And he's not just a simple believer! He's at least a hall master!"

The believers have only been brainwashed and have not practiced the evil methods of Xuantian Sect, so it is impossible for them to be possessed by evil spirits.

The one who is possessed by a ghost must be the hall master who is carrying out the mission.

What should I do if I encounter such a thing?
Of course it’s impossible to go there by yourself.

After Zhao Xing returned to the city, he reported to Lao Chen immediately.

Chen Shijie saw Zhao Xing running back in a hurry and was immediately confused: "What's going on? Why do you look so bad?"

"I suspect I have discovered traces of the Xuantian Sect."

Chen Shijie's expression became serious: "What's the situation? Tell me in detail."

Zhao Xing said: "I went to Anping Town to persuade farmers and went to a local courtyard. I didn't feel anything at the time, but after I came out, I had inexplicable palpitations."

Chen Shijie asked: "Does the lunar calendar have any warnings for warding off evil?"

"No." Zhao Xing shook his head. "That's why I said I found traces of Xuantian Sect, not believers."

Chen Shijie nodded. Normally it would be impossible to be discovered. If it happened to be a hall master, the almanac would not be able to give an early warning.

Otherwise, he would have been arrested long ago, so why would he be considered a trouble by the government?

"Perhaps it was because we got too much spiritual power in the mountains. The little mountain cat and I both felt palpitations. As soon as we came out, it told me that there were two bad guys in that yard." Zhao Xing attributed the reason for the discovery to the mountain cat.

"Meow~" The little bobcat raised its head. Is it praising me?
"I drew the appearance of those two people based on my memory..." Zhao Xing handed over the finished portrait.

Chen Shijie took the portrait, took a look at it, and then put it away.

"You don't have to worry about this matter. I will find someone to investigate these two people."

After a pause, Chen Shijie continued, "It's just a suspicion now. Don't mention it to others. First, I'm afraid the news will leak out, and second, I'm afraid you won't get into any unnecessary trouble."

"I understand." Zhao Xing nodded. He said this because he trusted Lao Chen. If it were someone else, he might not be sure whether he would come up with this reason.

Otherwise, what if someone thinks the mountain cat is magical and wants to borrow it for use?
Therefore, Zhao Xing did not say anything complete, and used words like "suspected" and "possibly".

Lao Chen’s attitude was also good and he was considerate of him.

Regardless of whether he deserved the credit or not, he believed that Lao Chen would definitely get him out of this matter.

As for whether he believed it or not, and how he would use the information if he believed it, Zhao Xing didn't think much about it.

His body is too young, so he has to rely on Old Chen to charge forward for big things.

The next day after returning to the city, which was also the last day of September, someone from Zong Shichang brought good news that the preaching paintings had been found.

Zhao Xing rushed to the Zong Mansion and met Zong Shichang and Manager Tang.

"Master Zong, have you finished the missionary painting issue?"

Zong Shichang waved his hand and said, "As long as money can buy something, what can I not do? I'm already here! Uncle Tang."

Manager Tang brought over several long boxes.

Zong Shichang patted the box and said, "A total of four copies of the preaching paintings."

"One of the paintings is what I agreed with you, so you don't have to pay extra."

"The other two paintings were found by Lu Qian for you, and she has also paid for them."

"This is the last pair you need to pay for."

Zhao Xing didn't waste any words: "How much?"

Zong Shichang said, "I got this fourth-grade, top-quality painting from the Dili School from the Cao family. It is intact and can be comprehended four times. I won't make money from you. The original price is 3,200 taels, so you just give me 3,200 taels."

"Okay." Zhao Xing felt that although the price was high, it was worth it. After selling those treasures, he had nearly four thousand taels of liquid capital, so he paid the money immediately.

As for the other three sets, they were all obtained by selling battle songs and war lyrics, so there was no need to spend extra money.

Manager Tang took the banknote, bowed and left, leaving Zong Shichang and Zhao Xing to have a private chat.

"Lu Qian asked me to pass on a message. She said that these two paintings are not enough to repay your kindness. She will find you a fourth-level painting later. Brother Zhao, can you teach me how you managed to coax that fierce girl into being so obedient?"

"When she talked to me and mentioned you, her eyes were full of tenderness, hehehe."

Zong Shichang admired Zhao Xing at this time. Lu Qian could handle it, she was simply a god!
"Don't make blind guesses." Zhao Xing said, "Looking for soulmates in the mountains and rivers, people are paying for art!"

"I see. It seems I have to learn some serious art in the future." Zong Shichang thought thoughtfully.

"Okay, let's not talk about this for now. I'll use your precious land to study the painting."

"Sure, you can choose any room in Tingshui Pavilion." Zong Shichang pointed at the mountain cat and said, "Can you lend me this kitten to pet it?"

"Well, just give it something to eat."

"No problem, I've prepared a lot of big yellow croakers, I guarantee you'll have enough!"

Zhao Xing rolled up the box, found a secluded room in the clan mansion, and then put the box down.

"I have seen a fourth-level preaching painting once before from my teacher. That rubbing of the 'Growth of All Things' allowed me to comprehend [Wild Growth] and [Earth Vein Comprehensive Element] with just one chance."

"At that time, my spells were still very rudimentary, but now, most of them have reached the ninth level, and some are even at the maximum level." There was some anticipation in Zhao Xing's eyes.

The understanding of traditional paintings will be different if you look at them at different times.

The less you accumulate, the less you gain from it.

The more you accumulate, the greater the rewards!

“I hope there will be a breakthrough this time.”

Zhao Xing took a deep breath, opened the first box, and pulled the painting out of the scroll.
