Yanyue Sect's main hall.
Wei Yousi pinched the talisman in his hand, turned his wrist lightly, and slapped it on the elixir gourd.
The elixir of spiritual wisdom flew out of the elixir gourd in one breath, as if possessed by a demon, and landed obediently in the palm of Wei Yousi's hand. It didn't look crazy at all like it was released this morning!
"Senior Wei's talisman skills are really powerful!" Ji Beichen praised repeatedly. Ever since he came into contact with the Wei family's authentic talisman cultivation skills, he suddenly felt that Yan Mingxiu's talisman skills were nothing more than this.
This made Yan Wugui's face gradually darken, thinking that after the two of them studied the "Book of Heaven and Human Scroll", they would find an excuse to separate the two, and his newly recruited disciple would be poached by others.
Wei Yousi felt a chill on his back and quickly handed the five-color demon pill in his hand to Ji Beichen. He has been with Yan Wugui for forty or fifty years, and you can tell what Yan Wugui is thinking just by looking at his face.
"Sect Master, this elixir..." Ji Beichen looked at the elixir in his hand and couldn't make up his mind for a moment. Considering his physical condition, he didn't know if he could bear it.
"Deputy Sect Leader Wei knows your body best, just ask him." Yan Wugui replied angrily, his arrogant look exactly the same as Yan Yueli's.
No matter how stupid Ji Beichen was, he could see it. He curled his lips, raised his hands to Yan Wugui and said, "This disciple only believes in the sect master. Please give me some instructions."
These words were very helpful to Yan Wugui, and his gloomy expression softened a lot. He called his servants to prepare lunch, and called Ji Beichen to go to the inner hall.
Wei Yousi looked on in shock, not many people could coax Yan Wugui to make him happy with just a few words, he couldn't help but secretly sighed: "It can still be like this!" This silly boy can do it, he can observe words and emotions, and he can bend and stretch. No wonder Li'er falls in love with him...
Yan Wugui brought Ji Beichen to the inner hall. The two sat face to face on the couch. Ji Beichen was about to present the five-color demon pill, but Yan Wugui raised his hand to politely refuse.
"Reach over here." Yan Wugui nodded slightly, withdrew his sharp gaze, and there was a trace of imperceptible peace in his eyes. Ji Beichen was very familiar with this look. Master Xuhai once looked at him like this too. Unfortunately, the relationship between master and disciple was shallow...
Ji Beichen handed over his arm, and Yan Wugui's slender fingers lightly touched Ji Beichen's wrist, quietly diagnosing the pulse. After a while, Yan Wugui's face showed joy, and Ji Beichen's heart dropped to the ground.
"Yes, I have made some progress in refining the scroll in half a month. I am not wrong about the person." Yan Wugui's words of praise became more and more natural, without any hesitation from half a month ago.
"So, can this disciple take this elixir?" Ji Beichen asked excitedly, staring closely at the five-color demon elixir in his palm. He felt the energy and blood in his body surge, and he could finally regain the feeling of fullness in his Dantian. .
Yan Wugui nodded heavily, and couldn't help but look forward to Ji Beichen's performance after forming the pill. Judging from his experience. It is very likely that Ji Beichen will transform into an infant directly after forming the elixir, and his cultivation level will change from expelling objects to Nascent Soul. Such a big change in cultivation level is the only one in the world of cultivation, but potential risks also exist.
"When are you going to take it? I will personally protect you." Yan Wugui has already made arrangements for him, and is ready to put down all the sect affairs in those days and concentrate on protecting Ji Beichen and help him break through the golden elixir and transform into an infant.
"I...disciple hasn't decided yet, so I need to discuss it with Li'er first." Ji Beichen calmed down the excitement in his heart and felt that it was better to be prepared and be more cautious.
"What did you say to her? It's not like we're separated. Don't worry, nothing will happen to you as long as I'm here!" Yan Wugui was very confident in himself, and he also had full confidence in Ji Beichen.
"What do you think, Master, after three days?" Ji Beichen looked at Yan Wugui expectantly. He knew that the current situation in the cultivation world was turbulent and the sect's affairs were complicated. Yan Wugui would not be able to escape for a while, but in three days This is the maximum he can endure.
"Okay! It will be set in three days!" Yan Wugui was deeply relieved to see that Ji Beichen was so sensible. He really needed to arrange the affairs of the sect.
Luan Wushuang was concentrating on Luo Yan Yueli's marriage, and Ji Ziheng was always out of the sect to handle affairs. It was not enough to have Wei Yousi alone in the sect. Fortunately, Wang Yuanting returned to the sect today, and three days was enough for him to handle the sect's affairs.
——
Three days later, in the dense forest of Yan Yue Valley.
There is a natural cave deep in the dense forest of Yan Yue Valley. There is an underground river there, which is as warm as spring water and collects the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It is the place where Yan Wugui retreats. Even Yan Yueli has never been here.
"Daddy is so partial! The daughter of the cave has begged you many times, but you have always refused. How can you take Ah Chen away so easily now?" Yan Yueli pouted her little mouth, with such an angry look that people couldn't help but cherish her more.
"If you practice hard like this, dad will naturally take you there." Yan Wugui shook his head slightly. Her daughter was talented and intelligent, but she loved to play and play around. Even if he took her into the cave, it was just for sightseeing.
When Yan Yueli heard this, she felt even more uncomfortable. She had been stunningly beautiful since she was a child, so why should she have to suffer that much? Her cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds in the past few years, and she had entered the Nascent Soul stage in less than twenty years.
"Okay Li'er, don't be angry." Ji Beichen pinched her pink face and whispered in Yan Yueli's ear: "After I come out of seclusion this time, I will be in the Nascent Soul stage like you, and I will be able to protect you in the future. It’s you.”
"I don't care about your cultivation. When I first met you, I never thought that one day you would be able to protect me..." Yan Yueli responded perfunctorily. She didn't care whether Ji Beichen had cultivated well or not. Thinking about this I couldn't see Ji Beichen for a few days, and I felt panicked.
Yan Wugui was so angry that he walked away. His daughter was getting more and more annoying and unreasonable. He didn't know what Ji Beichen saw in her...
"Dad..." Yan Yueli stomped her feet angrily. The two people she cherished the most were not around. If something happened to them, she would have to live!
"Li'er, I promise you, I will be safe!" Ji Beichen spoke firmly, and he felt like Yan Yueli. When Master Xuhai left him to take risks, he felt reluctant to leave.
"I believe you." Yan Yueli raised her little face and no longer plunged herself into misery in advance. She knew that Ji Beichen understood her, and she decided to believe in Ji Beichen again.
The two were affectionate for a while, and then Ji Beichen entered the cave. Yan Wugui looked at Ji Beichen with a little more trust.
"I'm sorry, I kept the sect master waiting for so long." Ji Beichen apologized. Although Yan Wugui would not blame him, he still had to apologize for delaying their time.
"You can just call me sect master. Yuanting also calls me like this." Yan Wugui said casually, and with a palm of his hand, a flame ignited in the palm of his hand, lighting up the way forward.
In fact, as soon as Ji Beichen said the word "Master", his voice automatically became softer and the expression on his face became unnatural. Yan Wugui had always seen it in his eyes and knew that Ji Beichen still recognized Zhenren Xuhai as his head master in his heart, and he had never forgotten this master-disciple relationship.
Yan Wugui had never been a person who pushed others into difficult situations, so he was very pleased that Ji Beichen really wanted to join the Yan Yue Sect. As for whether he would recognize him as his master, he didn't want to force it.
"Okay, my disciple will call you the sect master from now on." Ji Beichen naturally didn't know what Yan Wugui was thinking, but he had always been obedient to his elders. Since Yan Wugui said so, there was no reason to refuse.
The two of them were silent all the way. The cave didn't look very big, but it was actually bigger than the main hall of Yan Yue Sect. The deeper they went, the more insignificant they felt.
Stalactites as high as the city wall can be seen everywhere, and their shapes are so strange that people have to raise their heads to take a closer look and marvel at the wonder of everything in the world.
"It's beautiful here, I really should have brought her here." Ji Beichen began to think about Yan Yueli, thinking that Yan Yueli would be so happy when he saw these beautiful scenery that he would never leave.
"It's because it's so beautiful here that we can't let her be overly obsessed with it. She's still young and can easily fall into it, just like your relationship." Yan Wugui said bluntly. He believed that Ji Beichen could understand his painstaking efforts as a father. , at least there will be no blame.
"Junior understands." Ji Beichen nodded solemnly. Although he didn't understand the profound meaning of Yan Wugui's words, there were too many temptations in the world, which would indeed make people lose themselves.
"Be careful of the living creatures here, otherwise you will be seduced by them and you won't even know how you died."
Yan Wugui's words are not alarmist. This cave is really not as simple as it seems. People with weak minds can easily be confused by the monsters inside.
In fact, Ji Beichen understood this before he came. Yan Yue Valley was originally a place rich in spiritual energy. It not only gathered the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, but also the spiritual energy of Canglan Sea and Jiujie Mountain.
And this dense forest cave is the place with the most abundant spiritual energy in Yan Yue Valley, so there must be many spiritual beasts here to practice, but it is not known that it will attract not only spiritual beasts, but also ferocious monsters.
"Disciple is ready and will not be a burden to the sect master." Ji Beichen touched the short blade on his waist. In fact, Wei Yousi had warned him before he came that this cave was not simple, but he did not expect it to be so dangerous.
"I believe in you, follow me closely." Yan Wugui has always had confidence in Ji Beichen. Moreover, with the Yin Flame in his palm, ordinary monsters would not dare to approach unless they encounter something possessed by someone who is desperate for his life.
After walking for half a cup of tea, they came to a fork in the road. Yan Wugui chose the path on the far right without hesitation. He seemed to be very familiar with this place.
The two walked along the winding path for a long time. Ji Beichen felt that it took about one stick of incense, but in fact it was more than one stick of incense.
He found that in a dark environment, his perception of time gradually became less accurate, and even had a large deviation, which made him start to feel panicked.
"What's wrong?" Yan Wugui's footsteps obviously dimmed, but he didn't stop. He should have heard the "ding-dong" sound of water, which meant that they were not far from the underground river.
"It's okay, I just feel that this road is very long, but time passes faster." Ji Beichen couldn't describe this feeling. This was not the first time he had been in the darkness, and he had never felt this unreal before. .
Yan Wugui frowned. Ji Beichen's statement was very similar to the venom of a monster, which could just make people have the same hallucination.
"Don't look back, go forward and let me see your back." Yan Wugui warned, and Ji Beichen followed suit.
Ji Beichen strode forward and easily passed by Yan Wugui. The moment Ji Beichen passed by, Yan Wugui saw a terrifying monkey face on Ji Beichen's back...
