Chapter 185: Affinity Increases, Could Senior Brother Meng Be My Father

He went to his former residence and took away the important items.

Meng Zhangqing then returned to Spirit Peak.

The stone tablet beside it was blank, waiting for him to give it a name.

However, when it came to naming, Meng Zhangqing was truly not skilled, so in the end he could only leave it aside for now.

——

"Great Freedom Profound Metal Sword Art."

Staying in the pavilion, where incense smoke curled upward, refreshing the mind and clearing the eyes, Meng Zhangqing flipped through the secret manual inside the wooden box.

One could only say it was worthy of a Earth-grade martial technique.

The obscurity of its content, the intricacy of its moves, and the overwhelming power were completely beyond comparison with anything of the Profound grade.

Even the "Exquisite Cold Moon Sword Scripture" now seemed to have a huge gap compared to it.

If one could practice it to perfection.

Meng Zhangqing dared not imagine to what extent his strength could be raised.

"It's just that to master this sword art, a vast amount of resources is needed."

Meng Zhangqing glanced over it roughly.

With his current comprehension, there was no great difficulty regarding the content.

Spending a bit more time contemplating it.

One could also understand it.

The main issue was resources.

Practicing this sword art requires the use of Profound Metal Qi.

Profound Metal belongs to one of the Five Elements, a type of Metal Qi, and is of quite high grade among them.

It is infinitely sharp.

During cultivation, one must absorb Profound Metal Qi into the body, contemplate the essence of the Metal element, and finally condense a Profound Metal sword fetus within the Dantian Sea.

And even then, this counts only as entry-level.

Afterwards, even more Profound Metal Qi is needed for refinement.

Being a resource sufficient for cultivating an Earth-grade martial technique, one can imagine how expensive Profound Metal Qi must be.

With his current assets, he would likely struggle even to reach the entry level.

"Everything is equivalent; the higher the power of a martial technique, the greater the difficulty of cultivating it."

Meng Zhangqing shook his head slightly.

For an ordinary person, even if they obtained it, they would have no way to begin practicing.

However, as a True Disciple, the benefits and treatment are quite considerable; every month, corresponding resources are delivered to one's door.

These can be used to exchange for Profound Metal Qi at the relevant halls of the Zong Sect.

And there is a discount.

"But... practicing on my own is truly too slow; I should go out and make many friends."

A slight smile curled Meng Zhangqing's lips.

He did not believe that among the True Disciples, no one practiced the "Great Freedom Profound Metal Sword Art"; on the contrary, there should be quite a few.

Because this sword art, judging by its content introduction, was truly quite cool.

"Senior Brother Meng!"

Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded from outside.

"The Shi brothers, then."

Meng Zhangqing raised his eyebrows slightly and walked out.

He saw the two brothers standing obediently at the entrance, not daring to walk in casually.

Seeing Meng Zhangqing come out, Shi Yao immediately waved his thick, strong hands.

"Come in."

Meng Zhangqing said with a smile.

He had not yet gone to find these two; instead, they had come to find him first.

"Great."

The two immediately walked in.

"Senior Brother Meng, from now on we are neighbors!"

Shi Yao said.

Although his face looked mature, there was a carefree childishness in his words.

He pointed to two Spirit Peaks not far away.

Between them, the distance was only two or three hundred meters.

Indeed very close.

At this moment, clouds surged, turning into a sea of clouds, giving the Spirit Peaks the feeling of islands in the ocean.

The Seven Main Peaks.

Lingxiao Peak, Zi Yun Peak, and Medicine King Peak are relatively close to each other.

So the surrounding Spirit Peaks are not far apart either.

After a special adjustment.

They could indeed become neighbors.

"Senior Brother Meng, we came to drop by and also brought you some things."

Shi Guang was very polite.

But the phrase "dropping by" always carried a rustic feel.

With those words spoken.

Shi Guang took six jade boxes from his storage ring, most of them Rank Three.

"These were all obtained by my brother and me in the secret realm, and some were chosen by that old man just now."

Shi Yao said.

"Mother said that if one owes a favor, one must find a way to repay it, and repay it promptly,"

Shi Guang said, "If not for that Marrow Stone, my younger brother and I could not have comprehended our bloodline technique so quickly, and thus defeated that demonic beast."

"So please, Senior Brother Meng, you must accept these things."

"Yes."

Shi Yao nodded heavily as well.

"These two."

Meng Zhangqing was slightly stunned.

They looked rough in appearance and fierce in temperament, but their character was truly good.
