After a professional interrogation by the county magistrate, Lin Chen and others learned that after escaping from Bashu, they burned, killed and looted all the way.

They were originally just a group of martial arts practitioners in the Liumai realm, but later they met a team of hiding a large number of precious pills and holy medicines. They followed them secretly, taking advantage of the four-pole realm masters in this team to fight with the opponent and both sides, they took the opportunity to attack and kill and rob!

Lin Chen finally understood why the other party's true qi realm is so high, but his real martial arts are so empty! It turns out that the cultivation of the true palace realm of this group of people is all accumulated by pills!

Since these seven people are masters of the Zhen Palace realm, in order to prevent them from running wildly and escaping from prison, the prison officers, with the help of disciples of Zhenwu Pavilion, pierced the backs of the seven people with iron hooks, locked their ribs with iron chains, and put heavy handcuffs and anklets on their hands and feet. After the Rongzhou County Government reported the official documents of Guilin County, they could be beheaded.

The group returned to Darong Mountain, and Lin Chen went to talk to Zhong Jingqing briefly about his experience of going down the mountain.

"Master, after I was promoted to the True Palace realm, the form of the seed source of the Yin and Yang Qi in my body has also changed from "seed" to "sprouts"! But why... I obviously did nothing, but the true Qi in my body is still consumed all the time?"

Lin Chen asked Zhong Jingqing for advice. He said that he had been promoted to the True Palace Realm once before. At that time, if the true qi could not be used, the true qi in his body would always be in a very full state, rather than like now... Even if he lay motionless, he would consume the true qi in his dantian.

You should know that the true qi required to practice the yin and yang energy is very pure. In order to condense these true qi over and over again, his speed of absorbing true qi is already much slower than others! At this moment, his body is like a stove, burning all the time, consuming these hard-earned true qi, which is so hard to accept?

After hearing this, Zhong Jingqing smiled faintly, slowly picked up the teapot and drank a sip of tea, then said, "Don't worry, you boy, this is a normal phenomenon! If the true energy in your body is not consumed, this should be the time for you to cry!"

"Ah?" Lin Chen was stunned, a little confused when he heard it. He asked quickly, "Master, what's going on?"

Zhong Jingqing explained: "You can understand the Yin and Yang Qi as a spark condensed by the true Qi! Cultivating the Yin and Yang Qi will go through four stages in total, these four stages are: seed source, sprouting, forming trees, and blooming! The Yin and Yang Qi you practiced before belongs to the seed source state of the first stage! The Yin and Yang Qi in the seed source state is usually like a red carbon hidden in the ashes. Although there is no flame, it still maintains a certain amount of energy. After contacting the fuel, it can burn again, but the flame is not too strong..."

Lin Chen nodded repeatedly, not understanding.

Zhong Jingqing saw his appearance at the moment and couldn't help but sigh and said, "To put it simply, that is... Although the seed source in your body will not actively absorb the true qi in your body, the yin and yang energy you actively activate through the seed source will not be too strong..."

"After the second stage of "germination" form, the source condensed by the yin and yang energy in your body is like a rootless flame, which needs to be continuously transported to maintain its activity! The yin and yang energy in this state, once you actively activate the true qi to activate it, a small flame will instantly turn into a ball of raging fire! Its power is much stronger than the yin and yang energy in the first stage!"

"So that's how it is..." Lin Chen nodded, and finally understood a lot.

Zhong Jingqing smiled and said, "You have always felt that your true qi is not enough now. That's because you have just been promoted to the True Palace Realm. The amount of true qi in your body is relatively barely relative to "igniting" the "fire" of the Yin and Yang Qi! When you practice to the late stage of the True Palace Realm, or even advance to the Four Poles Realm, open up the four poles in your body, and build a "bridge" with the world, and let the true qi move towards you involuntarily, this feeling of emptiness will completely disappear!"

"This is not empty, it just feels a bit strange..." Lin Chen corrected.

"But then again... Master, what is your realm?" Lin Chen asked curiously.

Zhong Jingqing glanced at him, savored the tea leisurely without answering.

But when he saw Lin Chen's eager look, Zhong Jingqing said again: "Since you want to go like this, why don't we grandpa practice together?"

"Ah... let's forget it!" Lin Chen shook his head like a rattle when he heard this.

What a big joke! Zhong Jingqing is a top-notch man who can fight with Li Changtian to win and lose. Lin Chen guessed that the other party had already entered the last threshold of the third realm after all, so he asked him to practice with Zhong Jingqing? Isn’t this just going to fight?

"You kid should hurry up and practice!" Zhong Jingqing smiled and said, "You used to be in the early stage of the True Palace. Now you are practicing again. I guess, with your background, you shouldn't stay in the early stage for too long... After you are promoted to the middle stage of the True Palace, the emptiness in your body will not be so strong!"

After saying that, he leaned against the Grand Master's chair and began to close his eyes and rest.

"Oh, it's not empty!" Lin Chen corrected immediately, but when he saw Zhong Jingqing's deaf look, he quietly curled his lips, no longer thinking about anything in his heart, so he found a clean place on the river bank and sat down and started practicing.

…………

Lin Chen is immersed in hard practice every day, and unknowingly, more than a month has passed in a blink of an eye.

On this day, Zhong Jingqing finally announced that he had ended his ascetic practice on Darong Mountain and brought a group of disciples back from the mountain to Zhenwu Pavilion.

"I have gained a lot during this period!" Lin Chen stretched and sighed.

After returning to Zhenwu Pavilion, he immediately washed up and slept comfortably. He slept until the next afternoon, and then woke up slowly.

Lin Chen had just woken up and immediately heard someone shouting outside the door: "Junior Brother Lin, are you inside?"

"Senior Brother Hua?"

Lin Chen walked over and opened the door with a sleepy look. He saw that the person standing outside the door was Hua Yuqing.
