There are also mountains, rivers and jungles, but the Bluestone Mountains are full of life.
Although it is located in the desert of the Western Regions, it has high temperatures all year round and is often windy and sandy.
However, because there is a green lake deep in the mountains, the climate is still very pleasant, cool and comfortable.
Especially the small bluestone building not far from the lake.
Nangong Yun lived here for nearly a month.
He no longer took risks alone and went to Qingshi County.
During this month, in addition to staying at Qingshi Xiaozhu, he would also often return to the cave on the shore of the lake.
Because the cold jade stone platform in the cave was of great help to his cultivation.
Nangong Yun knew that such ten thousand-year cold jade was extremely rare. Since he couldn't take it away, he could only take advantage of this free time to practice here as much as possible.
Nangong Yun's cultivation has been at the peak of Yuanhun for a long time.
He has also discussed with Master Huo many times how to absorb the power of heaven and earth and break through to the star realm.
He even took risks more than once and tried to break through to the Star Realm. However, the results always left him disappointed.
Every time he was about to reach the star realm, he would always fall short because he could not communicate with the power of heaven and earth.
At first, he didn't understand why. Later, after communicating with Lord Huo, he gradually understood.
It turns out that all this is related to the incompleteness of his soul!
Because he does not have a complete life soul, he cannot communicate with the power of heaven and earth, and the power of stars is contained between heaven and earth.
Although he had really felt the power of the stars before when he helped Lan Yue break through to the star realm.
However, he was unable to absorb this power with his own soul sea, which made him feel very frustrated for a time.
Nangong Yun sometimes even despairs of these unattainable powers of heaven and earth.
Even though he is already very close, he can't take this small step no matter what!
When he thought of this, he always recalled the words his master had always taught him when he was at Fengming Mountain.
"Practice is a long journey, and you need to walk your own path alone!"
Nangong Yun didn't know what his way of cultivation was like.
However, he still firmly believes that sooner or later, he will find a way to take this step!
At that time, he will experience an unprecedented new world of practice.
Nangong Yun sat on the bank of the calm lake and looked into the distance. Two figures were reflected on the bright mirror-like lake...
It’s just that one of the figures is smaller and white!
Precisely because it was completely white, Nangong Yun gave it a nice name, "Xiao Bai".
He reached out and stroked Xiaobai's furry little head.
"Xiao Bai, how long have you lived here?"
"Squeak...squeak..."
"Oh, then how can I break through to the Star Realm?"
"Zhizhi..."
"Oh, you mean soon, I think so!"
However, Xiaobai doesn't make any other sounds at all except for the vague white fox call "Zhi Zhi".
However, Nangong Yun understood it.
Because he can judge the meaning expressed by Xiaobai's sounds from the intervals, length and pitch.
It took Nangong Yun a month, but he still didn't break through to the star realm, but he learned to "talk" to Xiaobai.
Although Xiaobai couldn't help him break through to the star realm, he could keep him company, so that at least Nangong Yun wouldn't feel lonely alone in the deep mountains and old forests.
One month is not long. Xiaobai has been following Nangong Yun since he first returned to the cave to practice with the help of the cold jade stone platform.
At first, Nangong Yun thought Xiaobai was just wary of him, so he followed him to "monitor" him.
Later, Nangong Yun discovered that Xiaobai gradually became bolder and not only followed him in the cave, but also followed him back to Qingshi Xiaozhu.
After doing this for a long time, Nangong Yun got used to Xiaobai following him.
He didn't understand until just now, when he was taking a bath in the lake and found Xiaobai burrowing in and out of the clothes he piled on the shore.
It turned out that Xiaobai was very interested in the little red bottle he carried with him.
To be precise, he should be interested in the Qing Yuan Pill in the little red bottle.
Nangong Yun was very curious and helped Xiaobai check the body carefully and found that Xiaobai's injury had healed, so why was it still interested in Qingyuan Pill.
Nangong Yun was puzzled and said to himself.
"Is it because Qing Yuan Dan tastes good?"
Immediately, he shook his head again. Qingyuan Pill is a herbal pill made by his uncle specifically for recovering from trauma. It is colorless and tasteless, so how can it be delicious?
But then he thought about it, maybe Xiaobai is a white fox, and its sense of taste is different from humans, so maybe it likes the taste of Qingyuan Pill.
However, even if this Qing Yuan Pill tastes good to Xiao Bai, it cannot be eaten as food.
First of all, Nangong Yun didn't bring that much. Secondly, after all, this was a healing elixir, and eating too much would definitely be bad for your health.
Nangong Yun looked at Xiaobai with a smile and stroked his furry little head along the back. Xiaobai did not resist, but just curled his head and looked like he was enjoying it.
"Xiao Bai, I'm leaving. Judging by the time, they will attack Qingshi County soon. I have to go and meet them. From now on, you can stay at your home."
"squeak......"
"Oh, you didn't understand!"
Nangong Yun suddenly realized that Xiaobai could not understand everything he said.
After all, it is just a little white fox, even if it has developed a bit of spirituality due to living near the cold jade stone platform for a long time.
However, that was only limited to being able to understand some of his simple words, and it was far from being able to communicate with him like a human being.
Nangong Yun couldn't help but laugh. Maybe he had been alone for too long and was a little dazed. He actually said so much to a white fox, how could it understand him.
Nangong Yun slowly stood up and walked towards Xiao Bai's cave entrance, Xiao Bai followed smartly.
When they arrived at the entrance of the cave, Nangong Yun pointed into the cave and said to Xiaobai.
"Go in."
Xiaobai also ran to the hole very obediently, but after it entered the hole, he turned back and squatted on the ground staring at Nangong Yun.
Because, it discovered that Nangong Yun did not come in this time, and it did not know whether Nangong Yun was coming in or preparing to return to Qingshi Xiaozhu.
So, it turned around and squatted on the ground looking at Nangong Yun.
However, Nangong Yun said to it.
"I won't come again, you will stay in your hole from now on."
"Zhizhi...zhizhi..."
Xiaobai still didn't quite understand, and Nangong Yun could tell that Xiaobai couldn't understand what he meant.
Then he smiled.
"Why have you suddenly become stupid? Forget it, stop talking. I'm leaving, and you can't follow me!"
"Squeak!"
Now Xiaobai understands!
Just when Nangong Yun turned around to leave, Xiaobai suddenly rushed up and ran to his feet. A pair of big black and translucent eyes stared straight at him, and his two snow-white little erect ears were still there. Stopped and swayed.
Nangong Yun couldn't help but feel helpless when he saw Xiaobai like this.
He just said so much that Xiaobai didn't understand it. As soon as he said he was leaving and not allowed to follow him, it understood it immediately.
Immediately, Nangong Yun pointed into the cave again and said to Xiaobai.
"go back!"
Unexpectedly, this time Xiaobai not only did not return to the cave, but ran in another direction.
Nangong Yun was completely speechless this time.
Because Xiaobai was running in the direction of Qingshi Xiaozhu. It seemed that this little guy was relying on him.
Nangong Yun watched Xiaobai disappear into the forest, and followed him helplessly...
Not long after, Nangong Yun returned to Qingshi Xiaozhu.
However, before he could get closer, he suddenly heard a girl's exclamation.
"What a cute little guy!"
When Nangong Yun heard this, he was immediately overjoyed, because the girl who made this sound was none other than Lan Yue!
He followed the sound, and sure enough, Lan Yue was standing in the pavilion of the small bluestone building.
However, her eyes were attracted by Xiao Bai squatting on the ground, looking at this little thing carefully.
But behind her, stood a tall and thin middle-aged man with a stern face.
Although Nangong Yun hadn't walked up to him yet, he could clearly feel the strong profound energy fluctuations emanating from his body.
The other party seemed to have discovered him before he even approached Qingshi Xiaozhu, so he released a wave of profound energy in advance as a warning.
However, when he saw Nangong Yun slowly walking towards him, a little shock could not help but appear on his face.
Lan Yue now has the cultivation level of the Star Realm, so she naturally noticed Nangong Yun's arrival early on.
However, she still couldn't bear to look away from Xiaobai on the ground, because Xiaobai was so cute.
"If you like it, I'll give it to you!"
Nangong Yun walked to the pavilion, looked at Lan Yue with a smile and said.
"Really?"
Lan Yue beamed with joy and glanced at Nangong Yun with a flowery look, as if she didn't believe that Nangong Yun could bear it.
"When have I ever lied to you?"
Nangong Yun spread his hands with an innocent look.
Immediately, Lan Yue happily stretched out her jade arms to take Xiaobai on the ground into her arms, and said to her with a smile.
"You will be mine from now on. Are you willing to come with me?"
Lan Yue happily wanted to touch Xiaobai's little head with her hands.
However, Xiao Bai reluctantly dodged his head left and right, and kept kicking Lan Yue's chest with his two snow-white forearms.
In an instant, two snow-white mountains were shaking in another place. Nangong Yun just glanced at them, and he was a little confused and confused...
"Squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak..."
Xiaobai kept making noises, Lan Yue looked curious, blinked her big eyes and asked Nangong Yun.
"What does it keep barking about?"
"Ahem...Xiaobai said he likes you very much and said he would follow you all the time!"
Nangong Yun looked resolute and said firmly.
Although he had long seen the reluctance on Xiaobai's face.
Moreover, if it continuously makes a "squeaking" sound, it means that it "does not want"!
However, Nangong Yun still betrayed Xiao Bai without hesitation.
"Haha, really? You call it Xiaobai? This name really suits it, and it's so smart that it can understand what I say."
Seeing Lan Yue's happy face, Nangong Yun slowly walked forward, tapped Xiaobai's little head with his finger, looked at it and said.
"Yes, Xiaobai is very well-behaved. He likes you very much, Xiaobai, do you think so?!"
Although Nangong Yun looked at Xiaobai's big black eyes with a smile on his face, for a moment that Lan Yue didn't notice, a hint of threat flashed in his eyes, as if he was speaking to Xiaobai.
"If you don't obey me again, I'll make you look good!"
Immediately, Xiaobai suddenly calmed down obediently, and Lan Yue could put her jade hand on it. She couldn't help but feel elated and said to Nangong Yun happily.
"It seems you are right, Xiaobai really likes me!"
"Squeak, squeak, squeak..."
Xiaobai twisted around in grievance, but Dabai felt restless again...
"Cough...cough...Lanyue, who is this?"
Before the nosebleeds splashed on Xiao Bai, Nangong Yun quickly backed away and pointed at the middle-aged man behind Lan Yue and asked.
"This is my uncle, Elder Yue Tianpeng!"
Nangong Yun immediately clasped his fists and saluted Yue Tianpeng.
"I have admired Elder Yue for a long time!"
"Um!"
"Please come in!"
Immediately, Nangong Yun entered the room with Yue Tianpeng and Lan Yue.
