Xu Yuxiu after returning to Lingxi Valley again.
I always feel that during this trip, there is an illusion that things are right and people are different.
Zhang Yuanyuan's change and her departure were her choices.
But Xu Yuxiu could feel that Zhang Yuanyuan seemed to have become more determined, as if she had found the path she wanted to take in the future.
It was an indescribable, very subtle feeling.
Desirable yet out of reach.
Xu Yuxiu felt a little confused.
Since my cultivation, my illness has recovered, and the hidden dangers in my spiritual roots have also been resolved. So, what path should I take in the future?
Gradually, confusion became more and more abundant in her heart.
A picture began to flash in her mind.
From the time I can remember, to the time I worship the Immortal Sect.
In just a few years, she was no longer the sickly little mortal girl she used to be.
She has grown into a true outer disciple of Taixuan Sect.
Now, relying on her status as a Formation Master, she is respected by many disciples in Lingxi Valley.
If she continues like this, she can live peacefully in Taixuan Sect, without having to go out to take risks, and she can still live a nourished life.
This is also what parents expect.
From that day on, Xu Yuxiu began to become confused.
Although she refined many spirit gathering array flags and sold them to more disciples in the Lingxi Valley.
Earned more spirit stones.
But she didn't feel fulfilled. Instead, she felt a little empty in her heart, as if she had lost something.
"Haha, the share of spiritual dew I submitted this month has finally reached the standard, and I no longer have to deduct contribution points. All this is thanks to Junior Sister Xu!"
Outside the main hall where the spiritual dew was submitted, a disciple walked out happily after submitting the spiritual dew, chatting with other disciples, and his words were full of smiles.
When Xu Yuxiu passed by, they noticed her and hurriedly came up to say hello.
She smiled back.
"Alas, I shouldn't have laughed at Junior Sister Xu in the first place, but now I have learned that she is actually an array master. Now I am afraid that I have also left a bad impression on her, and I am too embarrassed to go to her to buy an array flag."
Some people are downcast and depressed.
When Xu Yuxiu passed by, they quickly shut up and stopped talking.
"Tch, what's the big deal? Isn't it the Array Master? Even without her, I can still collect enough spiritual dew!"
Some people were disdainful and deliberately spoke loudly when Xu Yuxiu passed by.
Xu Yuxiu ignored it.
"You have done well this year. This is your contribution point reward this year. A total of 150 points. I hope you will continue to work hard!"
Deacon Qian smiled with satisfaction, handed out the contribution points to Xu Yuxiu, and gave him a few words of encouragement.
In the same year, with the assistance of Linglu, her cultivation level also returned to the fifth level of Qi refining, and she was also heading towards the sixth level of Qi refining.
Now, after running the Soul Fusion Art, her cultivation has reached the eighth level of Qi refining.
This made her confused heart feel a little more confused.
Another year passed, and her cultivation successfully broke through to the sixth level of Qi Refining.
After running the Soul Fusion Art, her cultivation level has reached the ninth level of Qi Refining.
This brought about great fluctuations in her heart.
It was like a calm lake gradually becoming rippled.
On this day, Zhang Yuanyuan came to Lingxi Valley to visit Xu Yuxiu.
I met Zhang Yuanyuan again. At this time, Zhang Yuanyuan had reached the tenth level of Qi Refining.
I saw Zhang Yuanyuan again after not seeing each other for more than two years.
Xu Yuxiu saw that Zhang Yuanyuan seemed to be thinner than before, and there was a bit more fatigue between her beautiful brows.
But the firm will in her body did not waver at all.
"Junior Sister Xu, how have you been these past few years..."
The two of them greeted each other, greeted each other, and talked.
Zhang Yuanyuan told her about her experiences in the past two years.
Only then did Xu Yuxiu find out that the ancient ruins she went to explore as a pioneer disciple were the same ancient ruins activated by Yu Chengdao and the others.
It was also Xu Yuxiu’s goal.
Now the ownership of that ancient ruins has come to an end.
The ownership rights are jointly held by the five major sects.
Among them, Taixuanmen occupies the majority, and can hold ownership rights for three months every year.
The rest of the time is divided between the four major sects.
And that ancient ruins were also given a name, called "Ghost Valley".
The reason why it is called this name is because of the large number of ghosts within it.
According to Zhang Yuanyuan, they suffered heavy losses in the Valley of Shadows this time. Many of the pioneer disciples had no time to prepare, and were pounced on by a large number of shadow spirits, eating them up, leaving not even a trace of residue behind.
If Yu Xuanji had not led the team this time, I am afraid that all the pioneer disciples like them would have been killed.
Speaking of this, Xu Yuxiu couldn't help but sweat, secretly thinking that the ruins were indeed dangerous, but luckily he didn't go in.
But when she heard that Zhang Yuanyuan might want to enter it again, she couldn't help but hesitate.
Do you want to give Zhang Yuanyuan the map of the ruins?
Anyway, it is useless to keep the map of the ruins now.
Xu Yuxiu thought this in her heart, but there seemed to be an inexplicable emotion that made her reluctant to take out the map.
After hesitating for a long time, she did not take out the map until Zhang Yuanyuan left.
She laughed at herself internally.
Xu Yuxiu, Xu Yuxiu, why are you so selfish? You obviously don’t plan to go to the ruins, so why are you still holding on to the map?
Xu Yuxiu stood at the entrance of the valley for a long time, the expression in his eyes changing again and again, and finally sighed, turned around and returned to the valley.
The years are like quicksand between fingers, and another year has passed in the blink of an eye.
In the third year after arriving in Lingxi Valley, Xu Yuxiu successfully broke through to the seventh level of Qi Refining.
At the same time, she also arrived at the middle section of Lingxi Valley.
Here, with the help of the Spirit Gathering Formation, she has already given birth to a dew flower that can bloom three flowers.
The quality of the spiritual dew condensed from the third flower has reached an astonishing level.
One drop can be diluted into three bottles of ordinary spiritual dew.
However, it takes three days to condense a drop of spiritual dew.
Xu Yuxiu was not dissatisfied with this.
She could now easily collect a sufficient amount of spiritual dew. As for the spiritual dew condensed from the third flower, she just collected it without using it.
The spiritual dew condensed from the third flower is not something she can take now.
She could feel that spiritual dew of that quality would probably have to wait until she had reached the tenth level of Qi refining before she could use it.
Now at the seventh level of Qi refining, the spiritual dew she takes every time she practices has been replaced by the milky white quality spiritual dew condensed from the second flower.
With the assistance of spiritual dew of such quality, her cultivation speed still maintained a fast and stable pace.
She believed that she would be able to successfully break through to the eighth level of Qi Refining in a short time.
However, her progress in cultivation did not dispel her inner confusion.
Vaguely, she seemed to have seen the end of her cultivation.
This made waves surge in her heart.
Is this the end of my cultivation?
An unwillingness gradually rose in her heart.
This unwillingness gradually stirred up waves in her heart, becoming more and more powerful.
"Did you hear that Senior Brother Wang Chuan from the outer sect successfully established his foundation yesterday and has been promoted to an inner sect disciple?"
"Really? I remember that Senior Brother Wang Chuan only has five spiritual roots, but he can also successfully build a foundation?"
"This matter is absolutely true and cannot be falsified. Although Senior Brother Wang Chuan has five spiritual roots, he is diligent in cultivation and has never slacked off. It is inevitable that he can successfully build the foundation!"
"I remember that when Senior Brother Wang Chuan first started, he was still a handyman disciple. I didn't expect that in just over twenty years, he would successfully build the foundation. Senior Brother Wang Chuan can be a role model for our generation. I will also work hard to practice in the future!"
After submitting the spiritual dew again, Xu Yuxiu heard such words on the way back and was suddenly stunned.
At this moment, a seed seemed to fall in her heart.
Yes, that senior brother Wang Chuan has never slacked off in his five spiritual roots. Who am I to slack off in order to live a stable life?
Pictures flashed through her mind, and scenes of her experiences over the past few years appeared before her eyes.
There is the pain of facing illness, the joy of worshiping the immortals, and the difficulty of parting with parents...
All kinds of emotions finally came together and turned into a drop of heart tears, nourishing the seed in my heart.
A mortal's life is full of birth, old age, illness and death, but it only lasts for a hundred years, and there is no way to recover.
I have experienced the suffering of illness, and now I have become a monk and become a monk. Why should I be willing to spend the rest of my life like this?
In that case, how am I different from ordinary people?
It would be better to just turn into a handful of loess in the mortal world.
Thinking of this, the light in Xu Yuxiu's eyes gradually brightened.
Invisibly, there seemed to be a cracking sound in her ears.
Those were the invisible shackles that imprisoned her state of mind, and they were crumbling bit by bit.
I am a mortal and want to live forever!
When Xu Yuxiu shouted these words in her heart, the shackles that restricted her state of mind suddenly shattered.
At the same time, strange phenomena appeared around her.
When the disciples around them felt the changes in Xu Yuxiu, they all looked at her in unison.
