Before setting off, Qi Guanyu took out the fragments of his natal spiritual sword from his Dantian, gave one to each of Yan Feiyue, Tong Shan, and Tong Yi, and said: "My spiritual sword is made of centuries-old black iron, and has the power of the Dinghai Divine Needle." The storm will get bigger and bigger later, so it will be safer to bring it with you."
"Why did it fall into pieces?" Tong Shan regretted that he spoke so bluntly.
"When it fell, it became like this in order to protect me. If it hadn't been for the spirit sword as a spear and the thunder spirit root as a shield to protect the whole body, you wouldn't be able to see me now." Qi Guanyu Now that I'm feeling better, I'm still in the mood to joke.
"Good brother, there are secret arrangements. We will find a way to repair your sword." Tong Shan sighed in his heart. It turns out that this is also a poor little guy. He is very brotherly and takes care of everything. .
At nine o'clock in the evening, the four finally reached the C1 camp at an altitude of 4,000 meters. It took them ten hours to climb to this 450-meter altitude.
After experiencing today's journey, Tong Yi felt a little anxious and said to the three people gathered around the fire: "There are still three camps: C2 camp, C3 camp, and assault camp before we can really start climbing to the summit. We must rush to the 21st Arrive before the departure, there are still 6 days left, it’s best not to stay at the camp behind us.”
"But, today you and your cousin are already taking oxygen." Yan Feiyue was a little embarrassed.
Tong Yi looked at A Yue's rippling eyes, smiled slightly, and said firmly: "It's okay, just suck it on, let's continue setting off tomorrow!"
"Just do what Tongtong said!" Tongshan was worried that the important event would be delayed because of the two mortals.
On the ninth day, the four people continued to set off towards the C2 camp at 4,350 meters. It also took ten hours to reach the height of 350 meters, but it was Qi Guanyu holding Tong Shan and Yan Feiyue holding Tong Yi who came up from behind. After arriving, they were immediately given oxygen to the two of them, which made it better.
Qi Guanyu looked at the situation and immediately decided: "Repair tomorrow and start again the day after tomorrow."
Facts speak louder than words, and Tong Shan and Tong Yi no longer objected.
The next day, Tong Yi asked Yan Feiyue to take out ten middle-grade spiritual stones and hand them to Qi Guanyu, while she took five more as spares. Before Yan Feiyue and Qi Guanyu could refuse, Tong Yi immediately said:
"Guan Yu, the higher your cultivation level, the higher our safety factor. These spiritual stones were originally prepared for emergencies, and now is the time when we need to use them. If it weren't for you and A Yue yesterday, I and I I’m sure I won’t be able to make it, and it will only be harder in the future. We are not only teammates, but also family members.”
Only then did Qi Guanyu and Yan Feiyue agree to accept it. Yan Feiyue made progress today and stopped after absorbing all six spirit beads; Qi Guanyu only stopped after absorbing a middle-grade spirit stone.
One low-grade spiritual stone is equal to 100 spiritual beads, and one medium-grade spiritual stone is equal to 200 low-grade spiritual stones. That is, one medium-grade spiritual stone is equal to 2,000 spiritual beads. Only then did everyone realize that Guan Yu had concealed his secrets before. In terms of his need for spiritual energy, he is like a man who is dying of thirst but can only drink one drop of water every day.
This realization made Tong Yi and the others feel guilty. The moment Qi Guanyu opened his eyes, Yan Feiyue threw herself into his arms and said with great distress: "Guan Guan, I will give you all the spirit beads from now on." Practice.”
Tong Shan and Tong Yi also said at the same time: "I will give you all the spiritual stones."
Qi Guanyu understood the posture of the three people and explained helplessly:
"Don't worry, I'm not as stupid as you think. The amount of spiritual energy I absorb has always increased with the recovery of my cultivation. It's just that recently the closer I get to foundation building, the more I absorb. However, at the current rate of absorption, Look, I’m really going to borrow spiritual stones from the Tong family later.”
"It's too much to borrow, Guan Yu, just use it." Tong Shan really regards Guan Yu as one of his own, not to mention that if it weren't for Guan Yu, there would be no possibility for their family to lift the seal.
This kind of warmth of selfless dedication has really been absent for a long time. Qi Guanyu explained with a smile: "Now there is hope for restoring the foundation building cultivation level. By then, the high-grade spiritual stones in my space ring can be taken out, so I asked Tong Borrowing middle-grade spiritual stones from home.
The Tong family is now at the cusp of a storm, and they must quickly cultivate a talented person among their own who can do it. The spiritual energy here is thin, and your middle-grade spiritual stone is the only way out. If I use it, your road will be cut off, and the karma I owe will be too great. "
Only then did Tong Shan understand: "No wonder, why do you always know the difference so clearly? Now it's better, you don't have to worry anymore, you can practice with middle-grade spiritual stones with peace of mind."
"That's right, please trouble the Tong family to supply the middle-grade spiritual stones that A Yue and I need during this period of time." Qi Guanyu rarely asked for help from others, so he said it very solemnly.
"No problem, let's take a rest early! We have to be on the road again tomorrow." Tong Yi felt relieved after seeing that everything was said.
On the eleventh day, the four of them got up early and started heading towards the C3 camp at an altitude of 4,700 meters. It took us twelve hours to reach this height of 350 meters, with two breaks. The first time, Tong Shan and Tong Yi breathed oxygen for more than an hour; the second time, when they were almost there, the wind was too strong. Although there were fragments of the spirit sword pressed against them and they were blown away, they could not move forward. They waited again. After more than an hour, the wind slowed down and we continued to set off.
On the twelfth day, because we walked slowly the day before, everyone unanimously decided to set off directly without taking an extra day of rest and climb towards the assault camp at an altitude of 5080 meters. When they arrived at the camp, Tong Yi and Tong Shan were both frozen. Qi Guanyu set up a tent, and Yan Feiyue used her spiritual power to make a fire.
The next step was to rub the bodies of Tong Yi and Tong Shan and change clothes. It was already early in the morning when they were done. Qi Guanyu and Yan Feiyue had used their spiritual power today, so they were very tired, so they tidied up and went to bed.
The next day, everyone slept until noon. During lunch, Tong Yi sighed: "Finally the last stretch of the road is left."
"Yes! It's just that I'm afraid it will be more difficult to walk from behind." Yan Feiyue was really frightened by Tongtong and her cousin yesterday, so she did not forget to remind her: "When you set off again, you and your cousin must stick together more Some warm babies.”
After lunch, everyone went about their own business. Yan Feiyue meditated and practiced without even using a single medium-grade spiritual stone; Qi Guanyu used two today.
On the fourteenth day, the 20th, at 8:40 in the morning, Qi Guanyu led a team to attack the summit. However, they didn't go far when they encountered wind, snow and thick fog, with visibility less than two meters, so the four of them had to rest where they were and prepare. After the sun came out at noon and they had lunch, the four of them set off again. After fourteen hours of hard climbing, we finally reached the top of Bogda at two o'clock in the morning.
After one person ate a bowl of self-heating rice, he couldn't stand it and fell asleep. The fatigue of more than ten days finally broke out, and the four of them slept until two o'clock in the afternoon on the 21st. Only then did they have the opportunity to feel the joy of reaching the top, and the four of them decided to have hot pot to celebrate. Yan Feiyue took out the pot bottom and ingredients from the storage bag, and Qi Guanyu used his spiritual power to light a fire.
"This year's winter solstice is at 05:48:01 on the 22nd. We still have to go to bed early tonight and get up at five o'clock tomorrow morning to prepare. When the time comes, we will start on time." Qi Guanyu looked at the information prepared before departure. said.
"Tongtong, when Guanguan and I are practicing later, you have to learn our meditation postures." Yan Feiyue suggested to Tongtong.
"Tonight, we will divide all the middle-grade spiritual stones we brought. A-Yue and I will each have half. Tomorrow, if we feel that the reserved spiritual power cannot keep up with the output speed, we must immediately absorb the spiritual stones to replenish the spiritual power. Lift the Once the sealing process is interrupted, all our efforts will be wasted." Qi Guanyu solemnly warned.
Yan Feiyue suddenly felt Alexander. After taking a deep breath, she said: "Okay."
Next is daily practice. Yan Feiyue is still absorbing the unused middle-grade spiritual stones from the first day, while Qi Guanyu has absorbed two more medium-grade spiritual stones. Tong Shan and Tong Yi are recharging their energy while sleeping. sharp.
As soon as the first ray of morning light appeared, Yan Feiyue, Tong Yi, and Qi Guanyu were already sitting in a triangle shape. Yan Feiyue and Tong Yi's right index fingers touched, Qi Guanyu and Tong Yi's left index fingers touched, and the three of them faced each other. After taking a quick look, he began to close his eyes and concentrate.
When Tong Shan stared at his watch and shouted "start", Yan Feiyue and Qi Guanyu began to mobilize the spiritual power in their Dantian and send it towards Tong Yi.
Tong Yi is still a mortal body and cannot bear the strong impact of the two spiritual forces of yin and yang, so Yan Feiyue and Qi Guanyu can only transmit it slowly through trickle channels. Yan Feiyue could feel that as her spiritual power flowed through Tongtong's meridians, her acupoints glowed with green light.
When the two forces gathered in the Dantian, Yan Feiyue saw that Tongtong's Dantian was full of dead branches and leaves; when the two forces of Yin and Yang merged in the Dantian, earth-shaking changes also occurred in the Dantian, and all the branches and branches Yadu turned into little bits of powder, condensed into a seed, and buried deep in the soil of Dantian.
At this time, the trickle of water could no longer satisfy the seeds' continued growth. Qi Guanyu and Yan Feiyue began to use their ring fingers and little fingers at the same time to counteract it. The infusion of three groups of spiritual power allowed the seeds to quickly break out of the soil and grow fresh and tender The green buds grew up little by little, became thicker little by little, and grew into saplings.
Yan Feiyue and Qi Guanyu once again felt that their spiritual power was not enough, and began to use their free hand to quickly absorb the spiritual stones around them. As the trees grew vigorously, so did the spiritual stones around them. Little by little it was reduced to ashes.
Yan Feiyue saw that only a small half of the spirit stone was left, and the trees in the dantian had grown big enough, but there were still no flowers, and she couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Something unexpected happened suddenly. Spiritual roots began to condense on the big tree in Tong Yi's Dantian. This operation stunned both Yan Feiyue and Qi Guanyu.
But soon, Qi Guanyu understood the reason. Water and wood spiritual roots actually condensed in Tong Yi's body. The wood spiritual roots merged with the big tree, and the water spiritual roots became a stream next to the big tree. People with special physiques must awaken their single spiritual roots. This is why Tong Yi has not been able to fully awaken his physique until now.
