The Lord of the Temple abdicates
The Lord of the Holy Land's expression was extremely unsightly.
"Up until now, you really haven't been able to find the killer?"
The Hidden Guards remained silent.
It wasn't that they couldn't find them.
The Holy Land was such a vast place, and these Hidden Guards were all elites.
How could they possibly fail to find the killer?
It was just that having found the killer, they didn't dare to confirm it.
The Lord of the Holy Land spoke up at this moment: "Speak plainly!"
The Hidden Guard found it difficult to hide it any longer.
"The killer might be Shangguan Xiaorong, because the aura of the flames on her body is very similar to the flame aura on those corpses. Moreover, Shangguan Xiaorong's cultivation level has also been rising very rapidly recently!"
Hearing that it was Shangguan Xiaorong, the Lord of the Holy Land was also stunned for a moment.
"That is a bit sinister!"
The Hidden Guard then asked at this time,
"Then, is an arrest necessary?"
The Lord of the Holy Land glared at him.
"Arrest for what? Since she has such talent, she should be well-protected. Who knows, this might be our Holy Land's trump card!"
Hidden Guard: "..."
However, the Holy Lord still added,
"But we cannot keep her in the Holy Land!"
After thinking for a moment,
The Holy Lord said: "Why don't we just place her in the Central Province? Doesn't that Zhou Ziming like to meddle in others' business? Let's give him a lesson!"
As the Holy Lord spoke, a sinister expression appeared on his face.
The Hidden Guard nodded.
"Your subordinate will go and handle it immediately!"
...The Saint had been feeling very speechless lately.
Because he felt like a third wheel.
Qiao Qingwan and Zhou Ziming sat at the door drinking tea every day.
Watching the current gloominess of the Holy Land.
While he himself was serving tea and pouring water for the two of them.
However, Zhou Ziming was somewhat curious.
"The way your cultivation has improved has surprised me a bit!"
Qiao Qingwan was speechless.
"The reason I was able to improve so quickly is because I have also awakened my memories, and then I found the opportunities that originally belonged to me in advance!"
"With so many opportunities stacked together, if I still couldn't reach this Realm, then I wouldn't need to Cultivate anymore!"
Speaking of this, Qiao Qingwan couldn't hold back her composure.
"On the other hand, you haven't taken a single Opportunity, yet your cultivation hasn't fallen behind at all!"
"How did you do it?"
Zhou Ziming gave a light chuckle.
"Because I have a cheat!"
Qiao Qingwan: "???"
A cheat?
What is that?
However, Qiao Qingwan's understanding was,
This must have something to do with the Cultivation Technique Zhou Ziming practiced.
The Zhou Ziming in her memory, although his Cultivation Technique also started as Lightning Magic,
As his Realm improved, the Cultivation Technique would change.
But the Cultivation Technique Zhou Ziming was currently practicing was still Lightning Magic.
Could it be related to that imaginary Revered Master he spoke of?
Could it be that what Zhou Ziming was practicing was an Immortal Path Cultivation Technique?
The more she thought about it, the more Qiao Qingwan felt it was possible.
Just as the two were talking,
The disguised Qian Dafu walked over.
"Master Zhou, the Holy Land is sending Shangguan Xiaorong to the Central Province's Holy Hall as a guest!"
Zhou Ziming was stunned for a moment.
Then he gave a light chuckle.
"I'm afraid he has already discovered that there's something different about this Shangguan Xiaorong, but he doesn't want to kill her either. So, he wants to shift the trouble onto someone else!"
Zhou Ziming smiled at this point.
"But he probably doesn't know that after having eaten people from the West Continent, and then eating people from the Holy Land, that thing will have absolutely no interest in people from anywhere else."
"It's impossible for him to want that thing to go elsewhere."
"No need to worry about this matter!"
Qian Dafu nodded.
Then he withdrew once again.
However, Zhou Ziming was somewhat curious.
"Wait a minute, what have the brothers been busy with lately? Since coming to the Holy Land, I haven't seen them!"
Qian Dafu gave a sly smile.
"The brothers have been busy lately organizing funerals for those who died, and while doing that, they've been exploring the situation of the Holy Land."
"Of course, we've pretty much understood the Holy Land, but the good things inside can't be wasted, right? So, the brothers have also been helping to collect them recently!"
Zhou Ziming: "..."
————
Another two months passed.
The Holy Land was actually looking a bit desolate.
In just two short months,
The Holy Land was starting to find it hard to hold on.
People were dying quite quickly.
Moreover, the flowers, plants, and trees of the Holy Land were also starting to become somewhat sparse.
Even the mist that shrouded the Holy Land all year round had thinned out a lot now.
Because most of those mists were transformed from Spiritual Qi.
But the people of the Dao Sect had secretly drained who knows how many Spiritual Springs and taken away how many Spiritual Plants.
Without the support of a large amount of Spiritual Qi,
The Holy Land naturally could no longer generate so much Spiritual Qi mist.
In contrast,
The Spiritual Qi in the Central Province was now gradually condensing into mist.
The cultivation levels of the Central Province's Cultivators also began to rise frantically.
Even the Master of the Holy Hall, who was in seclusion, came out early.
Upon coming out of seclusion and sensing the Spiritual Qi of the Holy Hall, the Master of the Holy Hall was dumbfounded.
"This concentration of Spiritual Qi even has a hint of the Holy Land's shadow!"
The First Division Chief smiled at this point.
"We have the Holy Land's gift to thank for this!"
The Hall Master of the Holy Hall was puzzled.
"The Holy Land's gift?"
The First Division Chief nodded.
"That's right~"
Subsequently, the First Division Chief recounted what Zhou Ziming was currently doing.
Of course, the reason the First Division Chief told the Master of the Holy Hall was because the Hall Revered Master was a trustworthy person.
After the Hall Master of the Holy Hall finished listening, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
He couldn't even suppress it.
"Initially, I only wanted Zhou Ziming to purge the Holy Hall, but now I didn't expect that he would turn this place into a Holy Land!"
But then, the Hall Master of the Holy Hall sighed.
He handed the Holy Lord Order to the First Division Chief.
The First Division Chief's face was full of confusion.
"What is this?"
The Hall Master of the Holy Hall said: "The Holy Hall will depend on you from now on. I feel that the Holy Hall might become the number one Holy Land in the Northern Continent, so you must maintain your original heart!"
The First Division Chief was dazed.
"Are you going to pass away?"
The Master of the Holy Hall's face darkened.
"I am already at the half-step Immortal Mark Realm, pass away my foot!"
The First Division Chief didn't understand.
"You are already at half-step Immortal Mark, shouldn't you develop the Holy Land even more?"
The Hall Master of the Holy Hall shook his head.
"It's different. In the entire Northern Continent, the highest cultivation is only half-step Immortal Mark. To improve again, one needs to go to the center of this world. I have already sensed where the center is, so I might need to leave the Northern Continent later!"
"As for Zhou Ziming, how long do you think he will stay here with his cultivation speed?"
"Not to mention the Ninth Division Head."
"If Zhou Ziming leaves, she will likely leave too, and your sister will likely leave as well. Therefore, I can only pass the position of Holy Lord to you!"
The First Division Chief was silent.
The Holy Lord then said,
"How about this, so that you can become familiar with being the Lord of the Holy Land in the future, from now on, you will handle the large and small affairs of the Holy Land."
First Division Chief: "???"
"Then what about you?"
The Master of the Holy Hall's face was serious.
"I think there's a problem, because I've sensed a few other old fellows who are also at half-step Immortal Mark currently in the Mitian Mountain Range. None of them have gone to the central region. I want to go and check the situation."
The First Division Chief nodded.
"Fine, knowing the result in advance will make it easier for Zhou Ziming to see where to strike when the time comes!"
However, before the Master of the Holy Hall had even set out, he saw something interesting.
Within his Divine Thought, the young miss of the Holy Land was currently being pursued by a Fairy!
