Chapter 14 Nothing more than that (Thanks to Qingyi `Lost Alliance Leader!)
morning.
A rainbow light flickered in the sky, and a woman wearing a white elder's uniform with rust-gold edges descended on the Qiongbi Peak. Not only was she extremely beautiful, but there was also a terrifying spiritual pressure surging from her body that kept strangers away.
The third elder of the inner sect! Ning Qing, the head of Purple Cloud Peak! Ning Daoran has been in Chaos Sect for a few years. Although he is not well-known, he still has some understanding of the upper echelons of Chaos Sect.
The third elder Ning Qing is a sword cultivator and the master of Ziyun Peak, one of the four main peaks. He has the power of life and death in the sect.
At this time, Ning Qing, with several of his disciples, slowly stepped into Courtyard No. 78.
"Fuck..."
Ning Daoran was amazed, he hugged the big stupid deer's neck and watched the excitement from a distance, he said with a smile: "Little Junior Sister is very lucky, the Third Elder came to accept her as a disciple in person, what a treatment, wow..."
He sighed, "If an inner sect elder came to accept me as a disciple... I can't even think about it..."
“Ouch!”
The big stupid deer called out in a clear voice and gently wagged its tail, signaling Big Brother not to lose heart. It didn't matter if the elders looked down on Big Brother now. In the future, they would be out of reach and Big Brother would accept them as disciples! ...
Soon after, the news spread.
Third Elder Ning Qing accepted Han Bing as his personal disciple! When Ning Qing walked out of the courtyard holding Han Bing's hand, Ning Daoran felt relieved. It seemed that Han Bing would definitely be fine with Ning Qing.
“Master…”
Han Bing suddenly looked at his master and whispered a few words.
"Um."
Ning Qing smiled and nodded.
Han Bing pursed his lips and rushed to Ning Daoran along the ridge, then took off the snow-white sword from his waist and said, "Brother Ning, I am going to Ziyun Peak... This is a gift from my mother.
This sword is called Qiu Shui, although it is only a first-class mid-grade magic weapon, but... please don't despise it, brother!"
"ah?"
Ning Daoran was speechless: "Junior sister, you are a sword cultivator, so this sword is naturally best left to you."
"You're welcome, brother."
Han Bing smiled and said, "After returning to Ziyun Peak, Master will give me a first-grade magic sword."
In the distance, a group of Ziyun Peak’s direct disciples and inner sect disciples were looking over here.
Ning Daoran thought for a moment, quickly took the Autumn Water Sword, grinned and said: "Then I thank you very much, Junior Sister. I hope you are doing well in Ziyun Peak, safe and sound, and have a long and prosperous immortal path!"
Han Bing smiled and turned away.
When the group of disciples from Ziyun Peak looked at Ning Daoran, they no longer concealed their contempt in their eyes. Even the Third Elder Ning Qing frowned slightly when he looked over.
It just so happened that Ning Daoran wanted this effect. He wanted to leave an impression of "greed" on his senior brothers and sisters in Ziyun Peak. Such people would be more harmless to humans and animals.
Otherwise, if I reject Junior Sister's kindness, I would appear to be extremely ambitious, which would probably attract even more attention.
What's more, the Qiushui Sword is a mid-grade magical weapon, which I just need! ...
Ning Qing waved his long sleeves, summoned a spirit boat, and took Han Bing away on the spirit boat.
"Bing'er."
She looked at this disciple who was born with a keen swordsmanship and said with a doting smile, "Who is this Senior Brother Ning? Why did you give him the sword that your mother left for you?"
Han Bing said softly, "Master, during the years I was a spiritual farmer at Qiongbi Peak, Senior Brother Ning took good care of me. He is a very kind person."
"Oh, I see."
In fact, Han Bing had some things in his heart that he couldn't say.
Lin Bo never returned, most likely because he was harmed by Li Xiu.
When Senior Brother Ning went up the mountain that day, he looked as if he had just been through a fierce battle, and Li Xiu had not gone up the mountain for so many days.
Han Bingbing is very smart, how could she not guess the secret?
Such a great favor, even giving her senior brother the Autumn Water Sword as a gift, she still felt it was not enough.
…
After the junior sister went to Ziyun Peak, Spiritual Field No. 78 was taken over by a rough man named "Ma Quanyou". He was a very outgoing person and became familiar with everyone in a few days. Everyone in Qiongbi Peak also called him Lao Ma.
Everything seemed to be back to normal again.
People often gather under the big banyan tree.
Grandma Yuncui is old and cannot bend over for too long, so Ning Daoran volunteered to take the big stupid deer to help Grandma Yuncui take care of the spiritual field. Pulling out weeds doesn't take much energy, and he and the big stupid deer are both energetic.
What's more, Ning Daoran has plenty of time. As long as he waits for the spiritual rice to grow, he can gain time for intensive practice, and he doesn't even need to practice at other times.
Grandma Yuncui's granddaughter has also grown up and become a three-year-old girl. She likes to be with Ning Daoran and Dabenlu the most.
Under the banyan tree, Ning Daoran played with the little girl.
"Chen Weimo, stand at attention!"
"Chen Weimo, take a rest!"
"Chen Weimo, march in step! One, two, one! One, two, one!"
Everyone was watching with joy, as if as long as Ning Daoran and Dabenlu were there, there would always be laughter on Qiongbi Peak.
The only person who was not very happy was Zhong Yan.
Xin Yan has been gone for several months, but there is no news at all, and no one knows what the situation is in that secret realm.
…
This anxiety lasted until one afternoon.
An outer disciple brought bad news. Xin Yan successfully explored the secret realm and broke through to the fifth level of Qi Refining, but then he cooperated with others to play a guest role in a robbery practice, and was subsequently killed by the Lingnan Twin Demons who were traveling with him.
"Fellow Daoist, this is Fellow Daoist Xin's relic."
The outer disciple handed over an object wrapped in cloth.
"My husband..."
Zhong Yan slowly opened the cloth, revealing a piece of purple knife handle.
In an instant, Zhong Yan felt as if she was electrocuted. With a complex expression of sadness, shame and anger on her pretty face, she quickly stuffed the object into her arms and returned to Spiritual Field No. 80.
In the days that followed, Zhong Yan hardly went out except for applying fertilizer and weeding.
…
The days go by.
Zhong Yan was gradually finding it difficult to maintain nearly three acres of spiritual fields by herself, and the weeds in the fields were growing more and more every day. The rice ears produced were far less full than those in the other spiritual fields, and were completely incomparable to Ning Daoran's green bamboo spiritual rice.
Until one day, a man appeared in front of Spirit Field No. 80.
This man's name is Hong Ming. He has extremely powerful magical power in his body and is a cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining.
He stood in front of the courtyard without saying a word.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"Go away. Xin Yan is dead. I won't accept another man. Just give up on this idea."
After hearing what Zhong Yan said, Hong Ming didn't say anything, but just scratched his head with a look of embarrassment on his face.
He did not leave, but took out a spiritual hoe and began to fertilize and weed Zhong Yan's spiritual field.
In late autumn, the crops in Spirit Field No. 80 are growing better and better, so I believe the harvest next year will not be too bad.
No one knew who Hong Ming was, or where he lived. He just came before dawn in the morning, and left after sunset after taking care of the spiritual fields.
He didn't knock on Zhong Yan's door, but just took care of the fields silently.
Finally, a few months later.
“Squeak…”
Zhong Yan pushed open the gate, her beautiful eyes slightly reddened, her voice became much gentler, and she said, "I can promise to be your Taoist partner, but you have to promise me one thing, otherwise I will turn around and leave."
"Okay, you tell me, I'll agree to everything you say!" Hong Ming nodded repeatedly.
After that, Hong Ming lived in Lingtian Courtyard No. 80 and became the head of the family.
"well……"
In the small cloud and mist formation, someone who had been watching the excitement for several months shook his head slightly.
That’s all, that’s all!
…
Time flies, and two years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Spiritual Field No. 77 is still full of vitality. Inside the small cloud and mist formation, Ning Daoran and Dabenlu live a fulfilling life every day. They work from sunrise to sunset, eat and drink well every day, and are very happy.
At this time, the time spent on intensive cultivation has accumulated to nearly 30,000 years.
Ning Daoran decided to practice the soul-searching technique. Currently, the soul-searching technique has just been perfected. He always feels that this technique should be practiced to a higher level, otherwise when searching the soul, the memory images will not be clear enough and there will be mosaics everywhere.
Put your time into the practice and start practicing! [In the first year, you stared at the soul-searching technique in a daze, feeling that there was no way to find it]
[Ninety-second year, the practice of soul-searching technique has not made any progress, just like your stagnant cultivation]
[In the 3640th year, certain images suddenly appeared in your mind, and you had gained something in your heart]
[Soul Searching Technique. Mysterious Level Lower Grade (Perfect)]
[Four thousand one hundred and twenty-fourth year, your soul-searching skills have reached their limit. You feel that your limit has come here, and sometimes you even feel that something unclean has entered your brain.]
[In the 5360th year, you caught a toad and tried to search for something in its brain. You saw grasshoppers and fish and shrimp in the water. You thought you were probably stupid...]
[In the 8140th year, you suddenly realized that everything was actually like this]
[Soul Searching Technique. Mysterious Level Lower Grade (Transformation Realm)]
"call……"
After practicing the soul-searching technique to perfection in one breath, Ning Daoran felt that his head was a little swollen, as if many things that did not belong to him suddenly poured into his head.
However, he felt that his mind was clearer than ever before, and his mental strength seemed to have improved a lot.
Suddenly he made a decision. He would not lose out if he cultivated to a higher level in one go! [In the 1034th year, your mind was in an extremely unstable state. People called you a madman and a fool. You observed the celestial phenomena at night and understood many things that ordinary people could not understand.]
[In the 14,300th year, you were too old and all your hair had fallen out. When you looked at yourself in the bronze mirror, you thought you had returned to the time before you traveled through time, to the 35-year-old bald programmer...]
[You have been sitting in silence for thousands of years, and now the light in your heart finally begins to flicker]
[The atmosphere of heaven and earth surges, you never thought that your meditation would lead to such good fortune]
[Soul Searching Technique. Mysterious Level Lower Grade (Return to the Original Nature)]
[Time remaining for intensive practice: 13,944 years]
…
“Actually…”
Ning Daoran slowly opened his eyes. He had actually returned to his original state so quickly! Soul Searching was a Mystical-level technique, and it had returned to its original state so quickly. This showed that he had a talent in this area! However, at this moment, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.
"Huh?"
When Ning Daoran looked outside the door, he actually saw the rice seedlings swaying in the spring breeze through the door frame.
"This is……"
He was stunned. As a cultivator in the middle stage of Qi Refining, he could only use his spiritual consciousness to look inside his body. But at this moment, his spiritual consciousness actually left his body and was able to detect the situation outside! When spiritual consciousness leaves the body, it is no longer spiritual consciousness, but the legendary divine consciousness!
Ning Daoran was shocked. Isn't spiritual awareness a legendary ability that only the powerful people in the foundation-building stage possess? (End of this chapter)
