However, when Lu Yan saw her sword, she was unwilling to let go. She could only say to Elder Shen:
"Now that you don't have the materials in hand to continue refining it, why not give it back to the disciples to play with..."
Later, Lu Yan swore again:
"My disciple promises that I will find more meteorites for you in the future. At that time, my disciple will definitely hand over this sword to you to continue refining it."
After being obsessed with it for a long time, Elder Shen was willing to take the sword away to Lu Yan temporarily.
After hearing what Lu Yan said helplessly, Li Jiu found it extremely funny.
So, Li Jiu couldn't help laughing and asked again: "Then, can you give this sword a name?"
"No!" Lu Yan sighed helplessly again, "Elder Shen said: This sword cannot be named before it is completed."
"Hahaha--"
Li Jiu couldn't help it anymore and laughed out loud.
Then, he nodded with emotion, and then shook his head, "I didn't expect Elder Shen to be so stubborn."
As long as Elder Shen is dissatisfied with all the magical weapons or magic weapons refined by Elder Shen of Qi Feng, he will definitely say: "I would rather destroy them than let them continue to exist in the world, so as not to disgrace me, Shen Zhihai." name."
Therefore, Elder Shen's saying "a treasure cannot be named before it is completed" is famous throughout the Lingzhou world.
Lu Yan also smiled, "Who says it's not the case! So, are you willing to give me your piece of meteorite?"
"Uh, this -" Li Jiu turned around in embarrassment and said, "I already used the fallen meteorite in my Mizuki Xuan Killing Formation some time ago."
"Huh? So you have already thought of a way to integrate the gravity element into the Mizuki Xuan Killing Formation?"
Seeing that Lu Yan didn't mean to blame him in the slightest, but instead cared about his Mizuki Xuan Killing Formation, Li Jiu felt relieved and warmed up, and smiled:
"I just suddenly thought of a clever way, but if I want to truly integrate the gravity element into the formation, I'm afraid I need to experiment a few more times. So -" Li Jiu said apologetically:
"Sister, that meteorite——"
"Hi!" Lu Yan waved her hand and said, "If it's useful to you, then use it. It's yours. As for my sword -"
Lu Yan patted the heavy sword on her shoulder with her hand, "To be honest, I am quite satisfied with this sword now. As for the promise to Elder Shen, I will naturally wait until later."
After saying that, Lu Yan smiled again and said:
"Fortunately, the sword is in my hand now. Otherwise, I'm really afraid that Elder Shen won't be able to wait for the falling meteorite and destroy it."
"Hahaha--"
The two of them laughed about this for a while, and then Li Jiu asked again: "By the way, Senior Brother Zhuo, how are you doing now?"
Hearing this, Lu Yan smiled again and said: "He, when I returned to the sect, I happened to meet him going through the Jie Ying Thunder Tribulation. Now, he is already the Nascent Soul True Lord."
Li Jiu's eyes suddenly widened and he said in surprise: "Really?"
Lu Yan smiled and nodded.
Li Jiu sighed: "I didn't expect that Senior Brother Zhuo would be able to have such a good fortune after rebuilding his cultivation after experiencing the broken pill incident. It's really amazing."
Having said this, Li Jiu couldn't help but sigh: "Oh, unlike me, until now, I haven't even been able to touch the edge of the middle stage of Nascent Soul."
Lu Yan looked at Li Jiu and said: "There are very few formation masters in this inner sea, and if you don't have anyone to point you to the formation method, and there is no one to discuss with you, it will naturally be difficult for you to make any progress."
After thinking about it, Lu Yan said again: "How about, after you pass the position of city lord to Lin Zhi, I will ask the master to go to the master uncle to beg for mercy and let you return to the sect?"
Hearing what Lu Yan said, Li Jiu's heart suddenly froze.
It turned out that without realizing it, he had already left the sect for a long time.
Has he ever thought about returning to the sect?
Do you want someone to point out his formation method?
Do you want to share your experience and experience with your colleagues?
Do you want to improve your formation skills?
——Thinking about it, thinking about it very much, he thinks like this all the time!
But--
Li Jiu closed his eyes and fully released his consciousness.
He carefully felt the mortals and monks coming and going in the inner sea, looked at the entire inner city and the twenty-four islands, and thought that whenever the beast tide came and after the beast tide, he never stopped paying attention to every place. Inspection and maintenance of formations...
"Senior sister, I think that I may never be able to break away from this inland sea in my life."
Hearing this, Lu Yan suddenly frowned and said in a serious tone: "Ajiu! The purpose of cultivating a monk is to seek the truth alone. If your heart contains too many things that are difficult to let go, you may have inner demons in the future."
After hearing Lu Yan's advice, Li Jiu shook his head.
"Senior sister, what you said was actually what Yao Zhenjun said to me at that time. At that time, I immediately woke up from the confusion as if it was a wake-up call. But -" Li Jiu looked away. Waihai slowly said:
"Over the past few decades, I have thought about it for a long time, and slowly, I felt:
As a formation master, if I don’t have people, things, or things that I want to protect in my heart, then what is the purpose of everything I do from now on, and all the formations I create? Is it just to protect myself? "
Hearing what Li Jiu said, Lu Yan's mouth moved slightly, but she was speechless for a moment.
Li Jiu: "The world often says that only when you have the Tao in your heart can you walk towards it. But after decades of thinking about it, I finally understood what I want, the path I want to take, and what exactly it is. What is:
With the method of formation, I will protect everything I want to protect.
This is what I, Li Jiu, really want to do and what I really want to follow - the path of guardianship.
So, senior sister, if I have too many things in my heart and unfortunately breed inner demons——
But I did what I wanted to do because of this. So, I actually think that by then, I will have no regrets. "
Li Jiu shook his head, withdrew his consciousness, raised his eyes and looked directly at Lu Yan, and said frankly: "So, I still like to stay in this inner sea. I can no longer let go of the inner sea..."
Lu Yan's mind was shaken, "Ajiu, you——"
Li Jiu smiled slightly, his expression both firm and inexplicably stubborn, "Senior sister, you don't need to persuade me anymore, this is my choice, my way."
Lu Yan took a deep breath and nodded, "No matter what, the Tao in everyone's heart is different. Besides, who can say for sure, your Tao will never be successful in the future? In this case, I really shouldn't force it. I interfere with your decision."
Boom!
Lu Yan put the heavy sword on her shoulder on the ground, cupped her hands and said, "Junior Brother, please forgive me, Senior Sister is stubborn!"
Li Jiu also raised his hand to Lu Yan and said, "It's okay, I didn't take Senior Sister's advice just now to heart. Please forgive me, Senior Sister."
In this way, both of them gave up and looked at each other with a smile.
