Chapter 26 Chapter 26 Snake Breaks Through
Mingyueyi came out of the cave and took out Shang'er.
She was sleeping soundly on the agate. When she was forcibly awakened, she rubbed her eyes and asked, "Daojun, what's wrong?"
Mingyueyi said nothing and handed the piece of meat in his hand to it.
Shang'er looked closer, but couldn't see anything. She looked up and asked, "What does Daojun mean?"
"I picked it up. Let me smell it and see what kind of meat it is." Mingyueyi said concisely.
Just now when she came out, she met a puppet sneaking out in the snow. It was holding the piece of meat and chewing it. She took it down and found that it seemed a little strange.
The texture of the meat is delicate, vaguely resembling human flesh.
Shang'er first sniffed it, then took a bite of the meat curiously, and her expression froze in an instant.
What a wonderful, wonderful taste.
She couldn't help but put the meat into her mouth again, but Mingyueyi grabbed her head and tore it apart from the flesh.
"Daojun, Daojun, that is a piece of spiritual meat. Eating it can improve my cultivation. Please let me have a bite to replenish my energy..." Shang'er had never tasted such delicious food before. She immediately grew her fangs eagerly and stretched her neck in a twisted posture to bite the piece of meat.
Ming Yueyi burned the piece of meat and finished the rest of his words: "This was found in Pu Yuemin's cave. He must have a problem. No normal person would feed a monster with this kind of meat."
Watching the meat disappear, Shang'er drooped. "Master Dao, why didn't you tell me earlier? If you had, I should have been more alert and eaten him directly when you walked in."
Ming Yueyi poked her, "What are you talking about? You have such an evil aura."
Shang'er leaned weakly against the agate and moaned without reason: "I want to eat, I want to eat, I really want to eat."
She really thought so and ate Daojun's handsome junior brother.
The piece of meat just now might have fallen from his body. By eating Pu Yue Min, she could not only get rid of the Taoist's biggest worry, but also have a good meal.
The more he thought about her, the more greedy he became. However, Mingyueyi thought she was noisy and put her into a mustard seed bag.
Ming Yueyi was about to return to her cave when her junior fellow apprentice came over on a sword and called out to her.
"Senior Sister Ming."
Mingyueyi looked up and saw that the person coming was Qi Feilin, a disciple of Chongritai.
Qi Feilin stopped his flying sword in front of her, his expression unable to conceal his excitement: "It is indeed Senior Sister Ming, why are you here?"
Just now he saw a woman walking slowly from afar with an extraordinary demeanor. He thought her back looked like Ming Yueyi. When he came down to take a look, it was indeed her.
Although Senior Sister Ming is a direct disciple and does not practice with others on Chongri Terrace, she occasionally teaches sword techniques to others in a few classes, so she has a very good relationship with her fellow disciples. Qi Feilin has a deep admiration for this senior sister.
Ming Yueyi said, "I just came out of Junior Brother's cave, and I'm about to go back."
Qi Feilin put away his sword, put it behind his back, and said with a smile: "It's just right, Senior Sister has been there, which means Junior Brother Pu is in the cave."
Ming Yueyi noticed that he was in a hurry and asked, "Did something happen?"
Qi Feilin said truthfully: "No, it's just that Master asked me to come and deliver something to Junior Brother."
Mingyueyi squinted at the thing in his hand. It was wrapped so tightly that it was hard to tell what it was.
Seeing her curiosity, Qi Feilin explained, "It's spirit deer meat. Master took pity on Junior Brother Pu, who was injured not long ago, so he specially killed the spirit deer in the roosting garden and sent it to me."
Spiritual deer meat nourishes essence and blood. Mingyueyi thought of that strange piece of meat, perhaps it was deer meat.
After Qi Feilin finished the meeting, he still had to go and deliver something, "Senior Sister Ming, I'll go first."
Mingyueyi nodded thoughtfully.
Qi Feilin nodded to her and walked towards the cold cave with the things in his hand.
Mingyueyi stood there and watched him being welcomed in by the noisy little puppet at the door. She then withdrew her gaze indifferently and turned to leave.
-
This was Qi Feilin’s first visit to Junior Brother Pu’s cave.
Before coming here, he had heard that Junior Brother Pu was afraid of heat and liked cold things, but he didn't expect the cave to be so cold that it could freeze.
He followed the puppet in, passed by the place where the red plum blossoms were in bloom, and his eyes were attracted by the bustle under the stone table.
There are densely packed puppets, gnawing on something with relish, especially the indescribable fragrance lingering around them, which attracts people to come forward.
Qi Feilin took a deep breath of the light fragrance and subconsciously wanted to walk towards that direction. Before he got close, the young man's voice sounded solemnly behind him.
"Just put it on top."
The young man's light voice suddenly sounded, as if his voice had not yet fully developed, and a hoarse sound came from the vibration in his chest.
Qi Feilin came back to his senses in an instant from his obsession, turned around abruptly, and saw a young man in red clothes standing far away. His eyes were as black as ink, and his skin was white and hazy, blending into a cold painting with the white snow and red plums.
It’s Junior Brother Pu.
The junior fellow in front of him was the most enviable genius in Fenjing Peak and even in the entire Qingyun Sect. He was the latest to join the sect, and in less than three months, he had already broken through from the initial stage to the second stage.
There is one realm and three stages. It is very difficult to break through. He devoted himself to practicing Taoism for more than 20 years before breaking through the second level.
The second level may be a realm that others cannot reach in their lifetime, but for him it is as easy as drinking water.
Qi Feilin was so nervous when he suddenly saw the godlike young man face to face that he stumbled over his words. He placed the things on the stone table beside him with both hands and said, "Junior Brother Pu, this is something that the Sword Master asked me to deliver."
The young man did not come forward, but stood far away, looking at him with a gentle and cold gaze.
"Thank you, Brother Qi, for taking the trouble to make this trip."
As he finished speaking, the little wooden puppet beside him picked up a wooden box and placed it at his feet.
Qi Feilin hesitated: "What is this?"
Pu Yuemin smiled and said, "I refined the Spirit Nourishing Pill. If your spiritual power is exhausted, you can take it. There is also a red pill inside for Senior Brother Qi to use in breaking through the ranks."
How did his junior brother know that he was about to enter the middle stage of the second level? Qi Feilin was puzzled. Hearing that there was a spiritual nourishing pill that replenished spiritual power, he couldn't help but be tempted.
The Spirit-Nourishing Pill is a tonic that can only be successfully developed by a third-level alchemist.
The sect competition will be held soon, and he will most likely fight against alchemy cultivators. Alchemy cultivators are the ones the other peaks are most afraid of encountering. Although their cultivation level is not high, they can take pills. Every time their spiritual power is exhausted, they will take one, and then slowly fight with their opponents.
He can't be killed no matter how hard he tries, and he never loses in battles. He can fight with anyone and is really annoying.
In the last sect competition, he had his spiritual power completely drained away by the alchemy practitioners, and therefore only ranked 50th.
Qi Feilin bent down, picked up the box, and opened it.
Five in total, and one red advanced pill.
In this sect competition, even if he meets an alchemy cultivator, he can fight him in pairs.
Junior brother is really generous. He gave me five top-grade pills at once.
Qi Feilin was filled with gratitude and looked up to express his gratitude, but he found that the young man who should have been not far away was nowhere to be seen, and even the things he had placed on the stone table had been carried away by the wooden puppet.
Forget it, my junior brother must be very busy. I’ll thank him next time.
Qi Feilin held the wooden box and walked out of the cave with a happy look on his face, completely forgetting what he had just seen and how he was almost seduced.
When he returned to Chongritai, his fellow disciples who lived in the same room with him saw what he had brought back, and their eyes were filled with envy.
"Junior Brother Pu treats us so well. Unlike the direct disciples from other peaks, they all look down on us as if they are naturally superior. Junior Brother Pu is truly a member of the sect's pure stream."
Qi Feilin thought of Dan Xiufeng's direct disciples and couldn't help but show his approval.
It is said that the character of a sword cultivator should be cold and aloof, but Fen Jingfeng is exactly the opposite. He is the most friendly and amiable person, especially Junior Brother Pu.
"Brother Pu is so kind."
He sighed along with the others.
-
The sect competition is only a few months away. In the near future, the cultivation levels of disciples inside and outside each peak will need to be checked, and all matters must be arranged properly.
Mingyueyi and Puyuemin came in one after another and paid their respects to Mr. Zhong respectively.
Elder Zhong glanced back at the two of them and instructed, "You should already know what's going on, so I won't say any more. Today, let's have all the disciples on Fenjing Peak have their spiritual power measured."
Although the sect competition is still some time away, each peak needs to collect the disciples' cultivation levels in advance and report them to the sect. In the past, Li Changming was in charge of this matter, but he was away on a mission, and He Wujiu also went to Futu Sea.
As the senior sister of Fenjing Peak, this matter was handed over to Mingyueyi, and meeting Puyuemin was just a coincidence.
Mingyueyi agreed to this matter. After Mr. Zhong left, he glanced at the young man beside him and turned to go outside.
Qi Feilin was outside checking the roster. Seeing his senior sister coming out, he stepped forward and said, "Senior sister, everyone who was at Fenjing Peak yesterday is here. No one is left out. We can begin now."
Ming Yueyi nodded and asked someone to bring out the spirit stone.
Spiritual power must be injected into the spirit stone to measure it. It can not only measure the current level of cultivation, but also detect demonic energy.
As a senior sister, you should do it for everyone to see.
Ming Yueyi was injured in Yun Town before and her cultivation level regressed. This was known to everyone, and she had made preparations in advance, injecting a trace of her depleted spiritual power.
The spirit stone flickered faintly, and the junior brothers and sisters in the audience were shocked when they saw it.
I didn't expect that my senior sister would be so injured. Her cultivation is even worse than that of the outer disciples who have just joined the sect.
Mingyue Yi finished his analysis and his eyes fell on the young man who was lazily leaning against a pillar. "Junior brother, it's your turn."
Pu Yuemin walked towards the spirit-testing stone. Before he raised his hand to inject spiritual power, the eyes of those around him had already fallen on his fingertips.
Senior sister is looking at him.
The itch in his heart spread up to his throat. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, his eyes passed over Mingyueyi, and his fingertips touched the spirit stone.
A touch of white spiritual power flowed into the stone, as if it had merged into a sea of stars, and the spiritual stone became dim and lifeless.
No movement?
Mingyueyi frowned and watched.
After waiting for a few moments, the spirit stone was still dim.
Everyone below was watching closely, with surprise in their hearts. Didn't they say that Junior Brother Pu had already broken through the second level? Why didn't he even have any reaction when testing the spirit stone?
As everyone below was suddenly distracted, the young man on the stage slowly withdrew his hand and took a step back with dignity.
Then, the originally intact spirit stone emitted an intense and strong light, dimming the sun in the sky. It was so dazzling that everyone could not help but close their eyes to avoid it.
Ming Yueyi was the same. His eyes couldn't bear such strong light. He subconsciously closed his eyes and turned his head to the side, but bumped into someone's cold arms.
Along with the word "Senior Sister", she vaguely felt something wet and cold licking her ear.
When the bright light faded and she could see clearly again, she realized that she had been nestled in the boy's arms without knowing when.
He hugged her naturally, his body was cold without any temperature, only his cheeks were rosy.
Mingyueyi thought of the feeling of being licked just now, took a step back from his arms, and turned to look at the shattered spirit stone beside her.
Broken.
Qi Feilin was the first to come back to his senses. Seeing the shattered spirit stone, he gasped and said, "Junior Brother Pu has broken through."
He had just broken through the second level not long ago, and now he has broken through the third level. Even the most gifted person couldn't do this. It really is...
His exclamation caused the fellow students below to burst into envious discussions.
In an instant, countless fanatical and envious eyes fell on the young man next to Mingyueyi, but he seemed to have been accustomed to it, and his face was so calm that there was not a trace of joy of breaking through.
Being able to break through the realm by testing one's cultivation level is indeed a strange talent that no one can envy.
Mingyueyi changed the spirit stone again, but his heart sank.
The spirit stone can not only measure spiritual power, but is also extremely sensitive to demonic energy, so it did not detect any demonic energy just now.
Was it really her illusion before?
When Taoist Master Juezhen learned about this and returned from outside, he happily summoned Mingyueyi and Puyuemin.
"Since the Qingyun Sect was founded, no one has ever reached the fourth level in less than three months."
Yes, the reason why the spirit stone shattered today was because Pu Yuemin broke through two levels of realm in one leap.
The young man knelt on the mat, his long hair curling behind him like little black snakes. There was no trace of pride on his drooping face, but a calm smile: "Master, your teaching is very good."
This is a flattering statement.
Mingyueyi, who was standing by, was so impressed that his ears softened, not to mention his master who was already happy.
Taoist Juezhen stroked his beard, looking indescribably excited. He said several good words in a row, and then suddenly remembered that he had not yet chosen a discipline.
Normally, disciples can choose which path to study in the second year after joining the peak sect. Those with better talents, such as He Wujiu, chose the ruthless path after only half a year to consolidate their cultivation.
Qingyun Sect has never had anyone like Pu Yuemin, who had not even chosen any sword skills, but had already broken through to the fourth level of cultivation.
Daoist Master Juezhen asked, "Min'er, which sword art do you want to cultivate? The Free and Easy Way, free and unrestrained, is very suitable for your talent. Would you like to learn the Free and Easy Way from Changming?"
The Xiaoyao Dao is a way of practicing in a comfortable and carefree manner. It does not involve any sword techniques and requires extremely high talent to become a saint. Juezhen Daojun is a person who practices the Xiaoyao Dao, but he has not been able to break through the last step so far, so he places his hopes on his disciples.
Ming Yueyi saw that the young man did not rush to answer, but frowned into a quiet posture, and couldn't help thinking about what kind of swordsmanship he had practiced in the past.
It is probably the way of freedom.
The hall was silent for a moment. Pu Yue looked at me with compassion and said gently, "I want to practice the Way of Mercy with you, Senior Sister."
Mingyueyi looked at him in surprise.
Although the ruthless path can speed up the cultivation speed, and as the realm improves, the cultivation level will far exceed the other paths at the same realm, but the disadvantages are also obvious. One must cut off all emotions and love, and not develop feelings. If feelings arise, they must be cut off to prove the Tao.
Therefore, few people practice the ruthless way. She followed He Wujiu, so she chose the same path as him, but Pu Yuemin now said that she wanted to practice the ruthless sword way.
Upon hearing this, Taoist Master Juezhen showed hesitation.
His little disciple was still young and kind by nature. He treated his fellow disciples in the sect and other living beings equally and kindly. In other words, he had never seen such a kind-hearted boy before.
Wuqingdao said that he was not suitable.
Daoist Master Juezhen said politely, "You might as well give it some more thought. Once you've made a decision, you can't change it."
He was reluctant to let such a promising young man choose to study the unsuitable sword art, but the boy had made up his mind.
Finally, seeing that he insisted, Lord Juezhen gave up. Feeling sorry for him, he asked Mingyueyi to teach him more swordsmanship in the future.
Mingyue Yi responded.
The matter was settled, and she came to bring Pu Yuemin.
