Cultivation Starts From Planting Sweet Potatoes

Outside Tongtai City is a plain, and Tubaba Mountain is the highest small barren mountain in the surrounding area.

At this moment, on the top of a not too high mountain, between a patch of grass, Zhang He and the ancestor of the Qi family stood facing each other.

"Do you really want to duel me?"

While the ancestor of the Qi family was talking, he was still picking at the pieces of meat stuck between his teeth with a branch. He looked like he had no moral integrity at all.

"I'm sorry. I actually wanted to ask you out. We have something important to discuss. It would be easy to leak the information through other methods, so I had to make this decision."

Zhang He hurriedly explained to the ancestor of the Qi family. When the ancestor of the Qi family heard this, he showed an expression that meant you were wise.

"I wonder what important thing you have to do that requires so much trouble?"

The ancestor of the Qi family seemed not to pursue the matter further, but was more interested in the important things Zhang He said.

I don't know what things are worth it for Zhang He to mobilize his troops and lead the army from Blackwater Town to this place. It consumes a lot of manpower and material resources.

"Fellow Daoist Xiangbi has heard that the demon alliance will attack Sui and Lu in a few months, right?"

"I have heard about this. Although the source of the news is unknown, I am afraid it is not groundless. I have sent someone to confirm the authenticity of this news."

"Fellow Daoist Qi, there is no need to confirm anymore. The news is absolutely true. It is the news I released. It is better to make preparations as soon as possible."

"You? How did you know?"

The head of the Qi family was a little surprised. He didn't even know that the branch he used to pick his teeth was bitten into pieces.

"How we know it specifically is confidential and cannot be disclosed yet."

Before Zhang He's identity as an undercover agent was exposed, he didn't want to expose himself. Moreover, he had no friendship with the ancestor of the Qi family and didn't know anything about his character.

Looking for him to cooperate now is just that he belongs to the same human race and has the same interests. In addition, he can't find a better partner.

"I wonder if Fellow Daoist Qi has ever heard of Shadow Demon?"

The ancestor of the Qi family fell into thinking, pondered for a moment, and then said:

"I have only seen a few words in an ancient book before. I heard that this demon behaves strangely and likes to constantly seize the bodies of human monks. It is difficult to find its traces.

Some time ago, I heard that all the officers and soldiers under Gongzi Jian's command have been possessed by shadow demons, but they have all lurked throughout the Lu Kingdom, and now it is difficult to find them.

A few years ago, I heard that a shadow demon once appeared in Lule City, but unfortunately it escaped. "

Speaking of this, the ancestor of the Qi family showed a look of regret.

"Fellow Taoist, you don't have to be sorry. The shadow demons are lurking around you and me. I can provide information now and let the Taoist friends catch dozens of shadow demons and come back for fun."

"Are there really that many?"

The ancestor of the Qi family was not stupid and immediately realized the seriousness of the matter. With the shadow demon's stealth method, one can imagine the damage that dozens of them can cause.

"These are just shadow demons distributed in this small area in the southern part of our Lu country. They are only a lot more in number.

These shadow demons lurk among the human race, responsible for infiltration and destruction. They are considered the vanguard of the demon army.

In a few months, the demon army will attack, and these lurking shadow demons will definitely make big moves in the near future. "

"If Fellow Daoist Zhang knows the identity of Shadow Demon, please let me know. I would be very grateful."

At this moment, the ancestor of the Qi family spat out the branches that he had picked out of his teeth, and gave a rare and solemn salute to Zhang He, the foundation-building monk.

"I came here with the intention of sharing this news with Fellow Daoist Qi, but there is one thing. Fellow Daoist Qi must swear here not to disclose to outsiders that this list is from me."

In the world of cultivating immortals, vows are still binding to a certain extent. Generally, cultivators will treat every oath they make with caution.

After hearing this, the ancestor of the Qi family thought for a moment and immediately swore to God that he would never reveal Zhang He's identity.

This condition is not difficult to achieve. As long as he abides by the agreement, the oath will have no impact on him.

"There are 26 people in this list, most of them are heads of various families. Almost all the monks above the foundation level in these families have been possessed by the shadow demon."

The ancestor of the Qi family took Zhang He's list, glanced at it with his spiritual consciousness, and suddenly felt a chill in his heart.

"This... so much?"

If this list is true, it means that at least half of the human forces have been secretly controlled by the Shadow Demon. Thinking about it makes people shudder.

Although he possesses golden elixir cultivation, as long as it doesn't hit his hand, even if a monk possessed by the shadow demon stands in front of him, he can't tell the difference.

"If Fellow Daoist Qi wants to take action, it's best to do it as soon as possible. In order to cooperate with the demon army, Shadow Demon is preparing for a big operation recently.

He wants to provoke a civil war among the human race and consume the current strength of the human race. "

Hearing this, the ancestor of the Qi family glanced at the Blackwater Army station in the distance. He seemed to have some understanding, and then looked at Zhang He meaningfully.

Zhang He knew that by leaking this information, at least half of his hidden potential had been exposed.

But now that the matter has come to this, he cannot sit back and watch the human race being plotted by the Shadow Demon and suffer a great loss in strength. He still has to do what needs to be done.

"Yes, I was provoked by the shadow demon this time. I plan to bring troops to fight with the Qi family and we will lose both sides. Fellow Daoist Qi had better send out his men to fight with caution."

The ancestor of the Qi family had already guessed Zhang He's intention, "Don't worry, I will arrange for the clan members to be careful in the fight."

Next, the two of them chatted for a long time on this barren mountain. The more they chatted, the more they became more and more speculative. It felt like they had met so late.

More than an hour later, violent spiritual energy fluctuations came from Tubaba Mountain, and the rumbling sound was very scary.

Everyone looked up and saw the ancestor of the Qi family flying in the air, sacrificing a magic weapon, and bombarding Tuba Dam Mountain.

At the same time, a purple hill rose from the top of the mountain, facing the ancestor of the Qi family without any sign of weakness.

The ancestor of the Qi family was just going through the motions at first, just showing off and accompanying Zhang He to make some noise.

After all, this is a fight between the two sides, and a fight is necessary to make sense.

But later on, the more he fought, the more frightened he became. Zhang He, who was opposite him, only relied on his cultivation in the late stage of foundation building. He actually had strong magic power, powerful spiritual consciousness, and was not weaker than him in all aspects. He actually fought evenly with him.

In the past, I had only heard that Zhang He had powerful means to deal with Jindan monks. Although many Jindan monks were a little wary, they had never regarded Zhang He as a strong person of the same level.

But this time it was different. Zhang He did not use any special means. Instead, he fought head-on with the Jindan monks in terms of mana, consciousness, and other aspects. There was no room for opportunism here.

This made the ancestor of the Qi family feel like he was facing a monk of the same level, and he felt a desire to win. He no longer had any scruples about all kinds of methods and used them with all his strength.

At the same time, Zhang He had not fought against a master for a long time, so he just took this opportunity to prove his current strength.

The two men fought vigorously and used all their methods. The battle lasted all afternoon and cut off most of the Tuba Dam Mountain.

In the end, the two could only end in a tie.
