Chapter 167 ‘Non-Renewable’ Exercises, Public Opinion War

Forest.

A figure as fast as a ghost shuttled through the mountain forest, and the flowers, plants and trees along the way quickly retreated and turned into shadows.

After seeing the signal, Hong Deqing rushed over quickly without any delay.

After half a stick of incense, Hong Deqing rushed to the vicinity of the signal transmitter, and after searching, he found the two of them.

"How about it, have you caught the Moon Worshiper?"

As soon as he saw the two of them, Hong Deqing couldn't wait to ask, but when he saw the two people's brows furrowed, his heart skipped a beat.

Sure enough, Hong Dexin shook his head in despair: "No, his speed was too fast and we lost him."

"How is that possible?!" Hong Deqing was stunned.

As far as he knew, the Moon Worshiping Thief's strength ranged from the first to the third blood-moving realm, and at most, it did not exceed the fourth blood-moving realm.

With such strength, no matter how fast he is, he cannot surpass the Tongmai warrior.

"This person should have practiced special body skills, so his speed is not weaker than that of Tongmai warriors. Moreover, this person is quite capable and easily got rid of us." Hong Demin knew what Hong Deqing was thinking and explained.

"Wait a minute, he's going very fast...I know which direction he's running in, follow me."

Hong Deqing was suddenly startled, remembering that he accidentally spotted a figure when he was running towards him. At that time, he was surprised at the speed of the other person. Now it seems that this person is most likely a moon worshipper.

"Walk!"

When the two heard this, they followed without hesitation.

While Hong Deqing and others were tracking the Moon Worshipers, Su Chen had already returned to the Qiao Mansion.

Pooh.

After spitting out a mouthful of bruised blood, Su Chen's bluish complexion improved slightly and his breathing became smoother.

"Tongmai warriors are really scary!"

That terrifying power did not disappear with the assimilation of Vajra Jin. Instead, it settled in his body like a new one for a long time, destroying his internal organs all the time.

Even though Su Chen's internal organs were tempered many times, they were still tortured unspeakably.

"This power should be what Uncle Qiao calls the power of heaven and earth. It is similar to the strength, but several times stronger than the strength. The ordinary strength is not an opponent at all. Even the Vajra strength relies on quantity to crush it. In terms of quality alone, it is also Not as good as it.”

After calming down physically and mentally, Su Chen thought.

"Currently, Vajra Power can only suppress it. If you want to completely eradicate it, you need to find another way."

Improving the diamond iron shirt is one way to make it stronger and easier to suppress.

After having a solution in his mind, Su Chen kept the matter in his mind for the time being and decided to see the gains from this trip first.

After taking out the proceeds from touching the corpse and counting them, Su Chen was quite pleasantly surprised.

In addition to the "Chun Yuan Jing" of Shougong, the biggest gain is the elixir.

From the two dragon guards, Su Chen obtained a total of five blood-strengthening pills and twelve blood-strengthening pills.

As for the man in the cloak, he has been classified as a poor person.

But that's normal. He is not a normal warrior, so naturally he does not have the elixirs and secrets that a warrior needs.

On the other hand, the two Dragon Guards were wealthy, and even if they had the Blood Strengthening Pill, they actually had the Blood Strengthening Pill.

Nowadays, Su Chen is no longer the novice he was back then. Naturally, he knows that the popular pill on the market is blood-strengthening pills, which have always been exclusive to the government.

"It seems that the identities of the two are not simple." Su Chen speculated and didn't care.

Even if their companions investigated the cause of their deaths, they could not find Su Chen. He had long erased all traces.

Immediately, Su Chen communicated with his mind on the panel. When the panel appeared, three small words of Chunyuan Jing suddenly appeared on the panel.

“Although this skill is called longevity skill, it is actually more like a health-preserving skill. It does not increase lifespan, but extends lifespan by conditioning the body.

Moreover, it takes a very long time to practice. You have to practice uninterrupted every day. If you miss a day, you have to start all over again.

It takes less than a few decades to practice it, and it is difficult to practice without great perseverance and perseverance.

In addition, it has no other use than maintaining health. It cannot improve one's realm or improve one's strength.

No wonder that guy would easily write it to me silently. As he said, young people can’t use it, and old people can’t use it. It’s really useless. "

Su Chen has classified this skill as a health-preserving skill in his mind.

To practice this kind of exercise, younger is not better, nor is it better and better. It is best to be in the right age group.

However, this kind of skill cannot be achieved quickly, and it can only be achieved by practicing continuously.

You can't slack off after you master it, you need to practice day after day, but even so, you may not be able to extend your life much until the end.

This made Su Chen slightly disappointed. He thought it was the kind of technique that purely increased lifespan.

However, after thinking about it carefully, I also accept that life span is one of the taboos of the human body, and it cannot be broken so easily.

It can extend your life, which is also very good.

So after a little hesitation, Su Chen decided to practice the technique. He communicated with the panel: "Recharge 10,000 taels and turn on the simple mode."

The panel responded quickly:

[Easy mode turned on: Breathe a hundred times to practice Pure Yuan Sutra to the beginning. 】

Still simple.

Su Chen finished it quickly. As he started to practice the Pure Yuan Sutra, Su Chen felt that his body had become lighter and more ethereal.

"This is?"

Suddenly, he found a stream of pure energy pouring into his body, traveling through his limbs and bones, tempering his body. Not only his internal organs, but even his pores seemed to be tempered.

It seems to have discovered the vitality suppressed by the force, and when it is about to disappear, it quickly flows into the vitality.

As if being stimulated, the vitality began to stir wildly, and not long after, the riot was suppressed.

Su Chen noticed that the vitality had completely transformed into this pure energy, and it was once again wandering around his limbs, bringing a feeling of comfort like flying.

call.

After taking a short breath, all kinds of fatigue were swept away, and Su Chen instantly became refreshed.

"This pure energy comes from outside the body. Is it also the energy of heaven and earth?"

Su Chen was thoughtful and couldn't be sure for the time being.

"Let's call it pure Yuan power from now on, but it's a pity that it's too little, and it will be gone after it's used up."

This technique is not only a 'practice until death' type of technique, it is also a 'one-time' technique.

Unlike the Vajra Iron Cloth Shirt, where the body can generate strength, the power of pure Yuan is more like a 'non-renewable' energy.

But fortunately, the internal injuries were relieved, and there was no longer that feeling of being stuck in the throat when spitting, and the whole person became more relaxed.

In the next few days, Su Chen was busy refining pills and improving his strength.

This fight with Hong Deqing allowed him to see the power of Tongmai warriors and also recognize his own shortcomings.

If it were in the past, his strength at the second level of moving blood would have been enough to crush the Hong family in Qinzhou, but with the influx of forces from Fucheng, the level of moving blood was no longer enough.

This time he was lucky enough to run away, but he may not have such good luck next time.

Moreover, he doesn't want to rely on luck every time, and he doesn't like the feeling that his fate is in the hands of others.

So he must improve his strength as soon as possible.

While Su Chen was busy, an undercurrent surged in Dafeng City because of a piece of news.

After all, the fact that the Moon Worshiping Bandits had entered the territory of Qinzhou was not concealed, and in a very short period of time, the news spread throughout Dafeng City at the speed of a hurricane.

No one knows where the news came from. In short, all forces know that the Moon Worshiping Thief has a secret book that can increase life expectancy.

Although this secret book was stolen from the royal family, it does not matter. All parties openly dare not compete with it, but secretly they are ready to do it.

Dafeng City, which had just calmed down for a while, was once again in chaos because of this incident. All forces launched a carpet-like search, with the purpose of finding traces of the Moon Worshiping Thieves.

On this day, Qiao Qiliang found Su Chen and informed him of the matter.

"Worship the Moon Thief, Pure Yuan Jing, secret book for increasing longevity?" Su Chen was stunned after hearing this. He didn't expect that this technique would cause such a huge sensation in Dafeng City.

Qiao Qiliang nodded: "That's right, now the entire Dafeng City forces are looking for the Moon Worshiping Thieves, hoping to get the secret book first. Even the palace master was alarmed and sent people to search for the Moon Worshiping Thieves while suppressing the chaos.

Fengbeicheng was also implicated because of this. Luo now looked at everyone as if they were moon worshipers. They searched the streets and had spies everywhere. Because of this, my father was furious, and Luo finally calmed down. "

"A secret book for increasing longevity, is it necessary?" Su Chen asked unconsciously.

He can be said to know more about this technique than the Moon Worshiping Thief, after all, he has already reached the basic level.

Although the Pure Yuan Jing is indeed extraordinary, it has not yet reached a world-shattering level. It only nourishes the body, but does not really extend life.

"Did you listen to what I said? This is the secret book to increase longevity!" Qiao Qiliang looked at Su Chen with a look that said, "Why don't you just eat minced meat?"

Seeing Su Chen's silence, he continued: "Besides, who would think that his life is too long? Not to mention those old people, even young talents like me covet this secret book."

Su Chen felt ashamed when he heard Qiao Qiliang's boastful words, but he also figured it out.

In the entire Dafeng City, he and Yue Baipiu were probably the only ones who had read the secret book and knew the truth.

Others don't know that the so-called secret book for increasing longevity is actually a health-preserving skill, so they are naturally salivating.

This is especially true for those big forces. After all, who doesn’t have many ancestors?

After realizing that he had underestimated the importance of the Pure Yuan Jing, Su Chen suddenly asked: "Qi Liang, what do you think will happen if the Moon Worshiping Thieves appear in Dafeng City?"

"Of course we will attack in groups!" Qiao Qiliang replied without hesitation.

After a pause, he noticed something unusual in Su Chen's words, and even his breathing became rapid: "Do you know where the Moon Worshiping Thief is?"

"What are you thinking about? How could I possibly know!" Su Chen shook his head decisively.

He really didn't know where the Moon Worshiping Thief was. Although the Moon Worshiping Thief would live in that house, no one knew whether it was true or not, and he had not verified it.

"However, the Moon Worshiping Thief shouldn't be so stupid as to show up in Dafeng City." Qiao Qiliang's expression softened and he said quietly.

Su Chen just smiled and didn't say anything. The real moon-worshipping thief wouldn't do it, but it might not be fake.

He had already thought of how to deal with Hong.

However, he did not plan to tell Qiao Qiliang about this matter, so as not to involve him. After all, when it came to the Moon Worshiping Thieves, he had to be cautious.

After Qiao Qiliang left, Su Chen finished refining the last batch of elixirs and then left Qiao's residence.

In the next period of time, he is afraid that he will not be able to return to Qiao Mansion.

Two days have passed, and the enthusiasm about the Moon Worshiping Pirates has not subsided, but has intensified.

Under the intervention of the Palace Master, although all forces did not dare to blatantly investigate the Moon Worshiping Pirates, there were endless tricks behind the scenes.

Every night, when Xinfucheng is the busiest, the black market is even more crowded.

People from all sides are scattered everywhere outside the city, all looking for the moon-worshiping thief. As long as there is a little bit of information, they will swarm them like hungry wolves on their prey, regardless of whether it is true or false.

Under such circumstances, another piece of news about Chun Yuan Jing quietly appeared: "The Hong family's people are suspected of catching the moon-worshipping thief."

At first, no one cared because such news came every day.

But as time went by, when more and more people heard the news, some people gradually began to believe it.

In just three days, the news that the Hong family had captured the Moon Worshiping Thief and obtained the Pure Yuan Jing spread like wildfire with the help of someone and spread to all sides.

After Hong learned about this situation, he quickly clarified: they did not catch the moon-worshiping thief.

Naturally, all forces sneered at this statement.

But there is no evidence at the moment, and it is difficult to blatantly ask for it from the Hong family, so the Hong family's disciples are happy.

Powerful people from all over the city secretly bribed them and asked them for information. Even hundreds or even thousands of taels were just free money.

Some people who are well-informed can earn tens of thousands of taels in just one day.

There were even some powerful forces who were not afraid of the Hong family and openly poached Xuan Shui Sect disciples, offering such high prices that these disciples felt like they were living in a dream.

If it weren't for the moral standards of 'a teacher is like a father', I'm afraid they would have switched to other forces long ago.

Even so, faced with such temptations from all forces, the entire Hong family was devastated.

In the end, the three elders of the Hong family were not allowed to forcibly close the mountain gate, and no disciples were allowed to have contact with other forces.

Fortunately, these forces did not find out about the Moon Worshiping Pirates. Coupled with the interference of other news, everyone gradually turned their attention away from the Hong family.

However, just as this matter was dying down, another piece of news drew everyone's attention back:

The Hong family secretly captured the Moon Worshiping Thief, imprisoned him, interrogated him secretly, and was about to obtain the "Pure Yuan Jing"!

As soon as this news came out, it immediately caused an uproar.

Even some major forces only knew that the Moon Worshiping Pirates possessed a longevity skill, but they did not expect that this news would directly reveal the name of the secret book.

Some forces who really knew the name of the secret book immediately sensed something was wrong and cast their sights on the Hong family.

The Hong family is once again attracting attention.

Xiahe Town.

A certain courtyard.

The moon-worshiping thief successfully escaped the pursuer and returned safely.

He changed his clothes, and a smile appeared on his pale cheeks.

"Hahaha, the Hong family, you are in trouble." As soon as the Hong family was mentioned, the Moon Worshiping Thief became furious.

Soon after Su Chen left, he planned to leave. After all, he was not stupid, how could he expose his position.

Unexpectedly, when leaving, they met Hong Demin and two others.

Because of his dress, he quickly attracted the attention of the two people, and then they noticed something was wrong.

After a fight, he was no match for the two of them. Although he finally escaped by various means, he was seriously injured.

After two days of recuperation, I managed to recover a little.

He accidentally learned that the news that he was in Dafeng City had been spread. He was slightly frightened, but he didn't care. It was not that easy to find him.

When he heard the news that he had been caught by the Hong family, he immediately realized that something was wrong. He always felt that someone was deliberately framing the Hong family.

But it suits him just fine.

He was thinking about how to take revenge on the Hong family, so he simply added fuel to the fire and directly revealed the name of Shougong, and also put the blame on the Hong family.

Regardless of whether they believe it or not, there will always be someone who will verify it and bring trouble to Luo Shi.

As for authenticity, at this time, authenticity is no longer important.

He has already anticipated that the Hong family will be in a difficult situation in the future. Even if the Hong family knows that someone has framed it, it will not be solved in a short time.

Thinking of this, his mood suddenly became a little happier.

Dafeng City, an inn.

"Is he a moon-worshipping thief?"

Su Chen got the latest news, and after a little thought, he listed the suspect as a moon-worshiping thief.

He had been waiting for the past two days. Seeing that the time was almost up, he planned to add fuel to the fire, but he never thought that someone would do it for him first.

After much deliberation, the only option was for the Moon Worshiping Thief to take action.

Unexpectedly, he also had a grudge against the Hong family.

A smile appeared on Su Chen's lips, things were getting more and more interesting.

Qingxi Mountain, Xuanshui Sect.

Snapped!

Hong Deqing, who had a hot temper, slapped the table to pieces, but still did not vent his anger.

"It's really unreasonable. They actually set their sights on me, the Hong family, and openly asked us to open the mountain gate and let them search. It's just too much!" Hong Deqing cursed endlessly.

Although Hong Demin and Hong Dexin on the side did not speak, their faces were ugly.

With all that has happened in recent days, it is not difficult to guess that there is a pair of promoters behind the scenes who want to deal with the Hong family.

"This matter is not that simple. Now everyone is focusing on us. No matter what we do, they will not believe it." Hong Dexin said softly.

"Have you not found out who spread the rumors?" Hong Demin asked after hearing this.

"There are too many. The source can no longer be traced, but Shadow Killer is also involved." Hong Dexin shook his head, guessing that Shadow Killer was responsible.

Hong Demin was silent for a while and then said: "Then return the favor, blame Yingsha, and send someone to do it immediately."

"Elder of the clan, Hong Lang has something to report."

At this moment, a voice came from outside the door.

"Come in."

Hong Lang lowered his head and entered the room in response. He bowed and said, "To inform the clan elders, the latest news is that it is said that three clan elders obtained the Pure Yuan Jing and spread part of the Pure Yuan Jing. Yun and other four major The clan wants to meet the three clan elders.”

"What?" Hong Deqing's eyes widened when he heard this.

What he cared about was not putting the blame on them, but the content of the secrets that were spread.

"This is the content of the secret book." Hong Lang took out the content of the secret book without hesitation, and Hong Deqing snatched it away without saying a word.

Hong Demin also started to read it. After reading it, the three of them frowned.

"Regardless of whether this secret book is true or false, as this news spreads, I am afraid that the Hong family will become the target of public criticism."

Hong Demin immediately saw through the negative impact this news had on the Hong family. If there were forces who were afraid of the Hong family before, they did not dare to act rashly.

But as this news spreads, even those forces who are waiting and watching may not be able to sit still. It won't be long before they end.

By then, Hong will have no chance to clear himself of suspicion.

At this moment, a voice came from the door: "Three clan elders, the master of the palace is here to greet you."
