Chapter 18: Ying Zheng: I am about to ascend to heaven
"Sure enough, the energy inside has been consumed."

As soon as the two pieces of jade fell into Ye Yu's hands, Ye Yu could immediately clearly sense the situation inside the jade.

After putting away the jade, Ye Yu immediately jumped back into the yard, planning to collect all the jade tonight and then recharge them all at once.

Yes, the reason why Ye Yu called this formation the simplest of the simple versions is because these jade stones have subtle energy communication with each other and will continuously consume energy.

It is necessary to recharge the lightning energy almost once a day, otherwise it will probably not be able to kill people with lightning the next day.

After returning to the courtyard, Ye Yu started to make a simple breakfast to fill his stomach.

As Ye Yu's cultivation level becomes higher and higher, Ye Yu can clearly feel that his demand for energy intake from external food is decreasing.

Perhaps after the Purple Qi Refining Method reaches the next level, Ye Yu will be able to practice long-term fasting.

After finishing his work, Ye Yu rested for half an hour, then he got up lazily, sat cross-legged in the quiet room, and began to practice.

At this time, in Pei County, Ying Zheng was looking at himself in the bronze mirror with joy.

"It is miraculous that just by extracting the essence of oneself and food, circulating it, and accumulating internal strength, one can achieve such a great change. "

Inside the manor in Pei County, Ying Zheng stood in front of a bronze mirror, looking at himself. He found himself completely different from before, and he couldn't hide the joy on his face.

Several days have passed since the last time Xu Fu and others met Ying Zheng.

During this period of time, Ying Zheng did not slack off in his practice. He always followed Ye Yu's teachings, and with a steady supply of precious medicinal herbs to nourish himself, his internal strength increased again.

If the internal force at the beginning was only a trace, it is now at least close to one-third the size of a chopstick.

The inner force swirled within his dantian, making him feel warm. Ying Zheng felt that he was in very good spirits, almost as good as when he was in his early thirties.

Moreover, through the bronze mirror, he could see that the spots of poison on his face had completely disappeared.

This is why he is so excited today. It proves that the amount of erysipelas in his body has dropped to a lower level.

"True power is real and can be felt. I have never come into contact with it before, so I was deceived!"

Ying Zheng felt the changes in the internal force in his body and said to himself.

Looking back on the past few years, Ying Zheng couldn't help but sigh that he had been too kind to these alchemists, allowing them to play him around.

Some time ago, all the alchemists who were beheaded had been tortured to reveal their so-called magic.

Those are really just tricks. Anyone can perform them as long as they know the steps.

As for those so-called golden elixirs, these alchemists know that they have no effect at all and even have side effects, but they still dare to offer them to me. They also deceive me by saying that they can prolong life. They really deserve to be killed.

Only in Xu Fu's faction, after interrogation, a few people who were pretending to be ghosts were found out and were directly dragged out and beheaded. As for the others, it seemed that there was nothing wrong.

For example, Xu Fu, Lu Sheng and others all said that the fairy mountain was recorded in ancient books, and they did go to find it according to Ying Zheng's instructions. Although there were some attempts to take advantage of the situation, they also took sufficient actions.

This is also the reason why Ying Zheng believed in them before, and even planned to allocate funds to Xu Fu to set out again.

"Zhao Gao, what's the situation at Hidden Immortal Peak?"

Thinking of Xu Fu's matter, Ying Zheng immediately asked Zhao Gao who was not far away.

During this period of time, Ying Zheng was quite obsessed with cultivation, and frequently went to disturb Ye Yu, which was obviously inappropriate, so since he last learned the internal cultivation method, Ying Zheng never went to the Hidden Immortal Peak again.

Although Ying Zheng did not go up, his attention to Yinxian Peak never stopped for a day, so he also knew that many people wanted to visit Ye Yu during this period, but were turned away. "Because a lot of alchemists were killed in the past two days, it seems that Mr. Ye was also affected. In addition, the "immortal energy" seemed to be gone yesterday, so some people rushed there and felt cheated.

I heard this morning that compared to the previous few days, the number of people going up to Hidden Immortal Peak has decreased significantly."

Zhao Gao knew that Ying Zheng valued Ye Yu, the alchemist from Yinxian Peak, very much, and that all the changes in Ying Zheng now came from Ye Yu, so he gave top priority to news about Ye Yu.

Whenever Ying Zheng asked, he could give the latest answer quickly.

"Haha, that's perfect. We haven't seen each other for a while. I'll take the gift I prepared a few days ago and go thank Mr. Ye while there are fewer people around."

Hearing Zhao Gao's words, Ying Zheng smiled. He also knew what the mentality and thoughts of the people he visited were. For Ye Yu, who possessed extraordinary power, he didn't care at all.

While there are few people around, I should go and visit him as soon as possible. I believe that with some previous friendship, if Ye Yu is at home, it should not be difficult to enter the yard.

At most it would be a wasted trip and I would climb the mountain at the same time. I have been practicing in the manor all this time, so it would be refreshing to take a walk occasionally to stretch my muscles.

"Your Majesty, I will prepare immediately!"

Zhao Gao responded immediately.

Then he began to arrange Ying Zheng's travel arrangements.

Not long after, Ying Zheng set out with Li Si and Meng Tian. Halfway through the journey, a servant suddenly brought news about Ye Yu.

"Four bandits were killed with thunder magic, and the remaining four vomited blood and died after returning home. This is indeed in line with Mr. Ye's methods."

After hearing the news circulating in Pei County today, Ying Zheng couldn't help but clapped his hands and exclaimed in admiration.

These bandits are really idiots. They don't recognize the real talent and dare to break into the gentleman's house. They deserve to be put to death.

"Go quickly, or else a large number of people will go to Yinxian Peak to join in the fun if you are late."

Ying Zheng realized this immediately.

After all, people had some doubts about the authenticity of Ye Yu's magic in the past two days. Now, in addition to striking Liu Bang with lightning, he also killed so many bandits. It couldn't be fake.

In this way, Ye Yu's reputation is likely to rise to a higher level.

Since there are many more idle people on Yinxian Peak now, Ying Zheng brought a lot of guards with him when he went up the mountain this time. Soon, Ying Zheng sent someone to knock on the door and state his identity.

"Squeak~"

Sure enough, after a while, amid the envious and jealous eyes of many people, the gate of the courtyard suddenly opened slowly.

"As expected, Mr. Ye and I have known each other for a long time, and our relationship with these people swarming here is quite different."

When Ying Zheng saw the door open, he was immediately delighted and secretly took Li Si, Meng Tian and others in. The rest of the guards guarded the area openly and secretly.

As soon as he walked in, Ying Zheng, Li Si, Meng Tian and others were shocked and looked at each other in surprise and doubt.

"what?"

At this time, Ye Yu, who was sitting upright in the pavilion, saw Ying Zheng coming in and couldn't help but let out a light exclamation, looking Ying Zheng up and down with some surprise.
