Chapter 48
The surroundings, including this very place, remained utterly tranquil.
Apart from her clearly audible breathing.
Unsurprisingly, there was no reply. Lingxi wasn't disappointed, so she had to look for another way.
First, we need to consider how to leave this place.
I was just thinking about leaving.
The ground beneath her feet, which had been rock hard, suddenly turned into a soft, fluffy marshmallow, as if softened by a plasticizer. Her feet sank straight down, and before she could react, she was completely submerged. Terrified, she could only close her eyes.
When she opened her eyes again, everything familiar came into view.
She finally emerged from that place where even ghosts couldn't see her.
Is something wrong?
As soon as Lingxi's soul returned to its place, she heard Su Yuan's concerned words.
When she opened her eyes, she was stunned for a moment.
Having known each other for several months, this was the first time she had seen the person's face clearly.
He had a high nose bridge and handsome features, but what attracted her attention even more were his emerald-like pupils, which were clear and bright, yet carried a natural coolness.
After only a moment of confusion, Lingxi blinked as she recalled what had just happened, and then eagerly shared what she had seen and heard with others.
The woman's eyes were filled with excitement as she boasted, "Su Yuan, you'd never guess where I went or who I was talking to!"
Back in her old home, Lingxi felt at ease and began to mysteriously recount her extraordinary adventures to Suyuan.
The instant she returned to her physical body, a golden light flashed on her forehead, and the moment the golden light appeared, a unique aura carrying destruction swept over her.
The aura it revealed even made Su Yuan's heart tremble.
He remained calm and asked, "Oh, where did you go?"
Lingxi was multitasking, consolidating her cultivation while repeatedly saying, "I went to a place I don't even know. There was nothing there except fog. Oh, and here's the important part..."
"Let me tell you, this is the most important part... this is the place."
Su Yuan pressed further, "How will you handle this next?"
"Suddenly, a heavenly sound rang out~" Lingxi's eyebrows danced with excitement, almost causing the unrefined spiritual energy to run wild, and it immediately became obedient.
The somewhat serious topic of tracing origins was turned into something both funny and exasperating.
Lingxi continued, "She told me not to be afraid, and she even gave me two Heavenly Thunder Seals. Tell me, isn't he...?"
Unable to move her hands, she gestured for him to look up at the sky with her bright eyes.
The Way of Heaven!
Su Yuan was not at all surprised.
However, he raised his head in a cooperative manner and joked, "Now you can believe me, you are the daughter of Heaven."
"I believe it, I believe it. Besides, who would be so narcissistic as to admit to being the chosen one of heaven? That's too childish."
Su Yuan, who was a bit of a chuunibyou (middle school syndrome), understood the meaning and smiled: "That makes sense."
"That's how it is..."
Lingxi circulated her spiritual energy for a full cycle, her rosy lips still uttering sounds, a rare moment of high spirits for her.
Even the usually quiet Su Yuan didn't find the noise bothersome and listened attentively to her words.
After stabilizing the internal energy.
She looked inward at her dantian, where all the spiritual energy and true essence within her dantian had turned into liquid. The jade pendant floating above continued to condense spiritual energy for her, removing impurities. The flower blooming in the center of the jade pendant had returned to its bud shape after she took out the cultivation technique and the purse. No matter how Lingxi tried to probe, that door never appeared again.
Lingxi is about to undergo a complete transformation. After reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, her meridians are continuously widened. What was once a mountain stream is now like the rolling Yellow River. As her cultivation technique is activated, the flowing spiritual energy is several times stronger than before.
The sea of consciousness that was unexpectedly opened during the Qi Refining stage continued to expand until it grew to the size of a pond.
The yellowed books, purses, and white clouds that were floating inside suddenly dispersed and distributed.
With more space, people don't have to squeeze together.
Su Yuan's true form has already emerged, but its phantom image still lingers in her sea of consciousness.
Lingxi glanced at it casually and then withdrew from her sea of consciousness.
The wind outside gradually rose and then slowly subsided. The increasingly solid white figure nodded slightly and disappeared from the spot.
Lingxi, who remained in the same place, was left to undergo final nurturing and consolidation.
...
"Big Black, if you sit down, I'll give you a reward." A childish female voice tempted the impatient big dog in front of her.
"Woof woof woof~"
"Woof~"
The big, shiny black dog, its tongue lolling out, immediately obeyed the command and squatted down, its eyes fixed on the light on the fingertip throughout the entire process.
Several half-grown puppies below kept playing and frolicking under it, no longer finding it annoying.
Separated for a month, mother and son were reunited.
There was no joy in Dahei's eyes at seeing his own child; instead, it revealed a deep sense of despair at being born.
Kim Jasmine kept her promise and fed the spiritual light to Big Black.
Jinli, who was picking vegetables, looked at the obedient Dahei and raised her eyebrows in surprise, saying, "Jasmine, you're amazing! Dahei can even listen to you now."
Dahei was spoiled by them like a pet. Apart from being a bit greedy, playful, and occasionally destroying things at home, he was very obedient to the couple.
When others call it, Big Black doesn't even acknowledge them.
She arranged the vegetables in her hands, placed them in a stainless steel basin, and walked over to watch the commotion.
Looking at the puppies beneath her, she exclaimed in surprise, "Hey, Jasmine, how come these puppies are so well-grown?"
Hearing this, Yun Qingzi, who was walking slowly from a distance, looked at the three puppies.
The puppies were glossy and chubby, with several pairs of dark eyes full of curiosity and intelligence.
Having been immersed in spiritual energy since childhood, Yun Qingzi was filled with anticipation for what would happen next.
Leading a yellow dog on the left and holding a falcon on the right, this is the dream of countless Chinese people.
What will it be like when these three little ones stand on their own?
Yun Qingzi's steps became much lighter as she walked forward.
The two were still talking, but Yun Qingzi was far away, and Jin Ling couldn't see him.
Jin Moli patted Dahei's head, tilted her head, and Jin Ling praised him a few more times.
"Hehe~ All the things Master raises are so cute, there are even little birds~"
Jin Li, a big fan of Ling Xi, nodded admiringly: "As expected of the Immortal Master, you are truly capable."
Yun Qingzi then came to the two of them.
Jin Moli greeted him, "Junior brother~"
"Yes, senior sister."
The two senior and junior students, who were of vastly different ages, naturally greeted each other, making Jin Li, who was standing to the side, feel a little awkward.
But it's alright, it's her fault.
I haven't seen it enough.
Li Yuncheng cooked a dish, but when he noticed his wife picking vegetables and not coming back, he ran out to check on her.
Upon seeing Yun Qingzi and Jin Moli, his smile softened even the scars on his face.
She greeted them in a high-pitched voice, "Hey, Jasmine and Master Yun, why don't you come to my house for lunch? I've almost finished preparing the dishes."
The fierce-looking man's behavior made Yun Qingzi politely decline.
He waved his hand, politely declining the invitation.
Before leaving with Jin Moli, Yun Qingzi's gaze inadvertently fell on Jin Li's belly.
After discovering something, he said to Jin Li out of the blue, "Congratulations~ Take care of yourself, don't fall."
As soon as she finished speaking, Yun Qingzi pulled Jin Moli towards Linxi Temple.
The three little ones, who were playing at the feet of the big black dog, noticed something and immediately followed behind it.
His big, dark eyes instantly became clear.
What?
Jin Li was still a little confused. What was there to congratulate her about?
She and Li Yuncheng exchanged a glance, both puzzled.
Congratulations? Take care of yourself.
Especially the old Taoist priest seemed to be looking at Ali's belly before he left.
With a sense of doubt, Li Yuncheng bent down to pick up the vegetable basin. As he stood up, a guess popped into his mind.
Li Yuncheng's eyes lit up with surprise: "Wife, could it be...you're pregnant?"
Ah~
After her initial surprise, Jin Li hesitated, "My period came normally this month. Could the Taoist priest have made a mistake?"
Jin Li, fearing that the two would be disappointed, was the first to pour cold water on their hopes.
Beneath Li Yuncheng's burly exterior lies a meticulous heart. "I checked online, and it seems there can be some bleeding at the beginning. I'll go cook now and then go to the hospital."
"good."
Jin Li walked along, stroking her belly.
I was still a little dazed.
"Honey, go sit in the living room first. I'll be done cooking the vegetables soon."
After settling his wife in, Li Yuncheng eagerly ran to the kitchen to cook.
...
It's January again.
In July, the valley was once again shrouded in a layer of mist, blocking out the blazing sun that had just risen. Meanwhile, the house where Lingxi lived was surrounded by a layer of multicolored spiritual light, radiating an overwhelming spiritual energy.
Yun Qingzi and Jin Moli looked at their master, who remained motionless, her posture unchanged from before, without moving an inch.
Jin Moli looked a little dejected: "Master~"
"Senior sister, we should get to work."
"oh!"
The flower buds on the branches in the middle of the water lily that surrounds the front yard have faded, and the fruits are slowly growing out, with tiny water droplets hanging on them, which makes people happy just to look at them.
Jin Moli skillfully bathed each water lily in spiritual rain, releasing her magic power while keeping an eye on the spiritual energy particles constantly being released from the leaves.
"Yellow, blue, green..."
"Green...yes, I guessed right."
The spiritual energy emanating from the leaves is not fixed; it is completely random.
Guessing what the next spiritual energy will be is a rather boring little game.
After watering the vegetables in the fields, preparing her homemade chicken feed, feeding the chickens raised on the western mountain, and carefully checking that the magic array was still functioning, Yun Qingzi leisurely returned to the Ling family.
There is a small field at the foot of Xishan Mountain.
Nothing was wasted. They planted some star anise, Sichuan peppercorns, and other spices. On the western hillside, they planted more than twenty peach trees, two or three chestnut trees, and three bayberry trees, which they had painstakingly searched for. They even planted two pomelo trees in the front yard.
The tree species were all carefully selected, and for some older varieties, Yun Qingzi had to exhaust her network of contacts who had bought ingredients over the years. Thanks to Yang Lanting's help, she was able to gather them all so quickly.
After finishing her work there, Jin Moli immediately went to the orchard.
Along the way, they planted some chrysanthemums, roses, golden chrysanthemums, buddlejas, and hibiscus on both sides, planting them all the way around the surrounding paths and courtyards. The people in Linxidong Village are of good character, and since few people come here, no one will come to ruin these flowers.
The expensive varieties were sourced by Lanting, and it cost quite a bit of money!
Although she is young, Jin Moli has some understanding of money, and she still feels a little pain when she wastes it.
As Jin Moli moved around, the seedlings that had been transplanted a month ago were bathed in the spiritual rain. Every single one of them survived and continued to extend upwards and outwards. In less than a month, some climbing roses had already climbed all over the wooden frame that had been built, and it was almost a green wall.
The remaining seedlings are also growing more vibrant and lush.
Jin Moli has sharp eyes and spotted several flower buds.
Who knows, Master will be able to come and see the beautiful flowers when he comes out of seclusion.
Hehe~
