Above the Marrow Cleansing Spring, the light of the Lotus Colored Bone faded away and it turned back into an ordinary bone, falling to the ground with a clang.

The light curtain also disappeared, and the surroundings returned to silence.

Qin Gengyun murmured, "It turns out that Yunwen Mountain once had such a connection with Qinglian Sect and Zhenyang Sect. Is the second volume of Yunwen Star Method the current Yunwen Star Spear? My lady, the Qitian Stick Method you gave me is the first volume of Yunwen Star Method?"

Qiu Zhihe leaned on his chest, with surprise in her almond-shaped eyes.

It has been five hundred years since the death of founder Sheng Tanglian. The only record about her in the sect is that she was obsessed with Zhen Yangzi and was killed by her lover, which led to the Qinglian Sect being driven to the land of the South Demon and becoming a demon sect.

But there are no more records of the details. The Qitian Stick Technique is passed down from generation to generation in the Qinglian Sect. However, because the Qitian Stick has been lost for many years, this technique has been idle.

If it weren't for Feichang Yunzi sending the stick thousands of miles away, Qiu Zhihe himself would not have been able to remember the Qitian Stick Technique.

I didn’t expect that there is such a story behind this technique.

"My husband's guess should be correct. In order to cover up, the few children who survived from the Zhenyang Sect changed the Cloud Pattern Star Method into the Cloud Pattern Star Spear. In this way, we are even more determined to obtain the Cloud Pattern Star Spear!"

There was a sharp light in Qiu Zhihe's eyes. What happened in the past was not important, but her husband's cultivation was a big deal.

If I can obtain the Cloud Pattern Star Spear technique, it will complete the second volume of the Qitian Stick Technique, which will greatly enhance my husband's strength.

Seeing Qiu Zhihe's cold eyes, Qin Gengyun hurriedly asked: "Madam, what do you want to do?"

Qiu Zhihe said coldly: "Yun Li asked me to meet him and said a lot of nonsense, but he didn't give me any skills. My husband, you can practice here with peace of mind. I will be back soon."

Qin Gengyun quickly held her back and said, "My lady, I have seen that most of the people on Yunwen Mountain are honest and simple. If we kill them and take them by force, how would we be any different from that Zhenyangzi? I don't want you to kill people in vain for me."

Qiu Zhihe turned to look at him, her voice cold: "Haha, yes, that Yun Zhen doesn't even know how to dress in shame, he is indeed simple and honest."

Qin Gengyun was speechless: "Madam, are you jealous of this?"

Qiu Zhihe snorted and finally sat back in the spring. Qin Gengyun breathed a sigh of relief.

He increasingly felt that his wife, although seemingly delicate and gentle, was actually extremely cold-blooded.

Maybe it has something to do with the secret in her heart?

But no matter whether she is gentle or cold, she is still my wife.

"Husband, do you think I am too cruel?"

Qiu Zhihe raised her head and said softly.

Qin Gengyun smiled and said, "To this day, my lady, do you still think I can't see through it? The Zhenyang Sect is a famous and large sect, but the founder Zhenyangzi is a villain who kills innocent people. The Chang family guards a town, but the head of the family practices evil skills that can eat people."

"The so-called righteous sect and the evil sect are nothing more than the strength of the enemy."

"My lady, you are ruthless, but only to those who want to harm us. At least I have never seen you kill innocent people."

"Besides, you are ruthless to your enemies, but gentle and considerate to me. I am grateful to you, so how can I blame you?"

Qiu Zhihe looked at him blankly, her beautiful eyes were filled with that gentle smile and could no longer hold anything else.

Her heart was pounding and her breathing was becoming rapid.

If, if I told him right now that I am Xia Qinglian, the Holy Maiden of Qinglian Sect, perhaps he would be willing to accept it?

However, if I reveal my identity and stay with him, I will be harming him!

Xia Qinglian, you can't be so selfish.

"Madam, madam?"

Qin Gengyun embraced Qiu Zhihe's slender waist and said softly:

"Is there something you want to tell me?"

Qiu Zhihe looked at him steadily for a long time, and a gentle smile appeared on her pretty face:

"Husband, the Marrow Cleansing Spring is most effective only the first time. We should not waste time. Let's continue practicing."

…

Lanwei Mountain.

The light of the Begonia Bone faded, the light curtain in the sky disappeared, and the image from five hundred years ago came to an abrupt end.

Mo Xiaolan was covered in blood, but she still stood upright. She was silent for a moment, walked to the stream not far away, and took off her white robe that was stained with blood.

In the moonlight, a tall and beautiful body exudes a faint glow like white jade.

There were dozens of wounds of varying lengths all over this body, all of which were injuries sustained while being chased by the Tianyun Sect.

However, these wounds are gradually healing at this moment.

Mo Xiaolan reached behind her head and untied her hairband, letting her dark hair fall down like a waterfall, reaching her waist.

She walked into the stream, scooped up some water and poured it over her head to wash away the blood.

When she washed herself and stepped out of the stream, all the wounds on her body had healed, and her skin had returned to its fair and delicate state, even better than before.

Even the face that was originally too heroic became much softer.

Mo Xiaolan was a little helpless. After entering the foundation-building stage, many things that she didn't understand before suddenly became clear to her.

For example, where did the colorful bone given to her by Xiaowu, the daughter of the owner of Yunzhu Mountain, go?

It should be that when Chang Fu was swallowed by the earth mole, the colorful bone was integrated into her body, so her spiritual energy and vital energy were not sucked away by the earth mole.

Her body has changed since then.

This change became even more obvious after he saw the statue that looked so similar to himself in the ruined Taoist temple outside Xingluo Town.

Mo Xiaolan had a feeling that the colorful bone that merged into her body and this piece of Begonia colorful bone should have come from the same person.

Is this person Sheng Tanglian?

Why did the remains of the former leader of the Qinglian Sect, the first person to ascend to heaven in a thousand years, merge with his own?

So, is my current cultivation and strength the result of my own practice, or does it come from the remains of others?

Mo Xiaolan took out a plain white robe from her bag and put it on slowly, but she did not feel happy about being on the Beauty List and the Ascension List.

She was wholeheartedly seeking the great path, but at this moment she felt confused.

If I rely on the remains of others to make breakthroughs, I can even become an immortal.

So, am I myself, or a puppet of these remains?

Or even, eventually become another person?

Mo Xiaolan turned her head and looked towards the north. Fellow Daoist Qiu also had a piece of colorful bone on his body. Qin Gengyun was with her, and he should have also seen the scene in the light curtain just now.

"Qin Gengyun, if it were you, what would you do?"

…

Cloud-patterned mountain.

Marrow washing spring.

early morning.

Qin Gengyun sat cross-legged in the spring water, and opposite him was Qiu Zhihe who was also sitting cross-legged to practice.

The two of them practiced dual cultivation several times last night, but they soon discovered that, in fact, in this marrow cleansing spring, their cultivation had been rapidly improving.

Meditation and practice are actually more efficient than dual cultivation.

So the couple reluctantly put their joint practice on hold and focused on their own training.

The sun was already rising, but the two people who were trapped in the layers of isolation formations were still sitting quietly.

Suddenly, light appeared on the couple's bodies.

After a moment, the bright light faded away and returned to the bodies of the two people.

Qin Gengyun opened his eyes and said happily: "My wife, this marrow-washing spring is indeed magical. We have both advanced to the third level of foundation building!"

All along, my wife's cultivation has always been slightly ahead of his.

This made Qin Gengyun quite depressed. He could never be better than his wife in training, so how could he protect her in the future?

Now, after being baptized in the Marrow Cleansing Spring, he has finally caught up with his wife's cultivation level, and they are both at the third level of foundation building!

Qin Gengyun was rejoicing, but he saw Qiu Zhihe's eyes were closed, her face was as pale as gold paper, and her body was trembling slightly. It was obvious that she was enduring great pain.

"Madam, madam! What's wrong with you?!"
