"Junior sister, do you need help?" A young male cultivator looked at Yanxuan with a smile.
Yanxuan smiled awkwardly, and was too embarrassed to take care of his messy hair, so he said to the male cultivator: "Thank you, senior brother, no need." He turned and hurried away as if running away.
The male cultivator stared at Yanxuan's back for a while and then looked away after Yanxuan's back disappeared into a pavilion.
This is strange, why do Qixia Mountain always produce beauties? The little junior sister just now must have just started flying. It seems that she is practicing the art of controlling the air here. It is obvious that she is not very proficient in it. She was flying up and down erratically, swaying left and right. She was unable to control it freely for a while, and she actually hit a tree. It was interesting to go up and then fall to the ground. However, looking at the appearance of that little junior sister, she is not inferior to the two senior sisters Mei and Min. It is really rare. You must ask for the name of such a beautiful woman. If you have the opportunity to get close, it will be a rare and beautiful thing. .
The young male cultivator thought to himself and controlled his body to slowly fly away.
Yanxuan poked his head out from behind the pavilion and saw the figure of the young male cultivator flying away. Then he breathed a sigh of relief and found a place to sit down on the steps. He first straightened out the wrinkled dress and then straightened it out. Fix messy hair. When I was practicing air control just now, I not only accidentally bumped into a tree, but also fell to the ground. I was in such a mess that I was looked at by others and became a joke. Thinking of this, Yanxuan felt his face get hot, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he became, so he hit his leg with a pink fist and cursed, "Why are you so stupid? Everyone can fly around, but I'm the only one, like Like a bird with a broken leg, it can only flutter on the ground, oh! How embarrassing!"
She went to Senior Sister Min for advice. Senior Sister Min had a very good personality. After listening to what she said, she found an open space for her to demonstrate and then told her, "Junior Sister Yan, your biggest problem is that you are a little timid. If If you can get over the timidity level, you are no worse than anyone else."
Senior Sister Min was absolutely right when she said that Yanxuan's qualifications were the best among the more than fifty disciples who came with him, otherwise Tang Bonian would not have specifically recommended him to the female cultivator surnamed Zhong when choosing a disciple. These days, she has practiced diligently according to the "Danxia Secrets" she received from her master, and the sea of qi in her body has gained some spiritual power. At this point, she is better than other new disciples, but This art of controlling the air is always difficult to practice. She is a woman herself, and she was often bullied at home. She has always lived under the protection of her mother. However, her mother has also been bullied in the family, so when she grew up, she was always fearful like a frightened bird. It became timid.
It's better to be bolder, Yanxuan thought dully, holding her chin, but as soon as she flew up, her feet were empty, and seeing the things on the ground slowly getting smaller, she began to panic, and her breath became confused when she panicked, and then she... It started to fall. If it fell slowly, it would be better. If it fell quickly... Well, luckily I didn't fall on my face just now, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to see anyone.
Thinking of this, she rubbed her slightly sore waist.
no! When will this problem be corrected if this continues? We must be able to fly steadily today!
Yanxuan turned his attention and looked at a place where she had been before. The cliffs of the two mountain peaks faced each other. They were not far apart, only a dozen feet apart, but there was a cloud and mist under the cliff. It was unclear what was there. How deep it was, she had thought about flying from one cliff to that cliff more than once to exercise her courage. But every time she mustered up the courage to get there, when she saw the abyss full of mist, her courage gave out and her legs became trembling with fear. He backed away softly.
You must go there this time! Yanxuan felt furious.
However, when she timidly came to the edge of the cliff, she was blown away by the cold mountain wind and suddenly woke up. She looked down tremblingly and was about to step back in fear.
Yanxuan, Yanxuan, how long do you want to be timid? The people who came with you are already much stronger than you, do you want to continue to be so timid?
Rather than cheering himself up, it would be better to say that Yanxuan was angry with himself.
Um! I am scared only after I see it with my eyes, so I will go over with my eyes closed first. Flying over this distance is not a problem, and there are no trees in the middle. Thinking of trees, Yanxuan glanced across the way. There was a tree on the cliff opposite.
Um! I flew towards the tree. Even if I hit it, I would still fly over!
Thinking of this, Yanxuan changed his mind again, looked at the opposite side, used the air control technique, and gradually lifted his body off the ground. When he was about one foot high, he stopped rising. She thought that at this height, he could Fly over, and... even if you hit a tree and fall on the other side, it won't hurt too much.
As soon as I closed my eyes, my ears were filled with the sound of wind.
To say that Yanxuan's speed was not slow, he passed between two cliffs in a flash.
When she opened her eyes, she realized that she had really come. The tree in front of her was getting closer and closer. Yanxuan's heart was full of excitement and joy, she had really come! But immediately she was horrified to find that the tree was getting closer and thicker, and the cracked and mottled trunk was so close to her eyes so quickly!
Tree! Tree! Tree!
Although he was shouting in his heart, he couldn't stop and still bumped into him. Yanxuan twisted his neck hard, but he must not get his face bruised!
Fortunately, in the end, she stopped the momentum of rushing away. She opened her arms and hugged the big tree at once, and her body hung on the tree. Fortunately, it was a tall pine tree, except for the crown. There were no slanting branches outside, so her face was not scratched at all.
Yanxuan hugged the big tree and took a good breath for a while, then looked down in panic. He saw it was more than one foot high. To say it was not high, how could it look so scary! How to get down?
"Junior sister Yan!" Suddenly a familiar voice called her.
Yanxuan finally turned his face against the tree trunk and found that it was Senior Sister Min hanging at the same height as her, looking at her with a smile and surprise. Now Yanxuan's face suddenly turned red, and she I don't dare to let go, for fear of falling, but this look really doesn't look good, ugh! What a shame!
"What are you...?" Senior Sister Min asked looking at the embarrassed Yanxuan.
"I...Senior Sister Min, I am...in the art of controlling the air!" Yanxuan replied as thinly as a gnat.
Senior sister Na Min looked in the direction behind Yanxuan, saw the two cliffs, and understood Yanxuan's intention. She was passing by here and happened to encounter Yanxuan's embarrassment. She couldn't help but feel angry and funny, but she also admired him. This little junior sister actually forced herself into this state for the sake of air control.
"Come on." Senior Sister Min got closer to Yanxuan, "Listen to me, you can continue to use the air control technique now and slowly let go of your hand so that you won't fall. Try it."
Yanxuan listened and followed what Senior Sister Min said. Sure enough, his body was no longer heavy and his arms were no longer so strenuous, so he slowly let go of his hands holding the tree trunk.
But when I was separated from the tree trunk, I heard a soft sound of "silk". When I lowered my head, I couldn't help but feel great pain in my heart. I saw a large piece of rosin flowing out of a crack on the tree trunk. I was holding the tree trunk just now. The rosin was all stained on the dress, and it was really difficult to wash off.
"Junior Sister Yan, come here, I'll hold your hand, and we'll fly over slowly again. I'll hold you this time, so you don't have to worry."
"Um"
In fact, according to Yanxuan, she wanted to hold on to Senior Sister Min tightly, but having her wrist held by Senior Sister Min made her feel much more at ease.
This time Yanxuan tried his best to suppress the fear in his heart and not let himself close his eyes again when he flew over the abyss.
"Look, aren't we flying here right now? Come on, let's fly back!"
This Senior Sister Min is a very patient person.
When they flew back to the cliff where Yanxuan hugged the tree, Senior Sister Min discovered Yanxuan's problem. When flying over the abyss, Yanxuan's eyes were straight forward and he did not dare to look down at all. .
So she flew back again, and when she was above the abyss, Senior Sister Min stopped there, which frightened Yanxuan greatly.
"Junior sister Yan, I'm holding you. Don't be afraid. You can't fall. I'm here. Look down."
"I……"
"Junior sister Yan, aren't you here just to practice your courage? As I said, you actually fly very well and have good aura, but you are timid. Since you are here to practice your courage, you can't help but look at it!"
After hearing this, Yanxuan had to bravely look down. He didn't know how deep it was under the cliff. There was a gloomy mist in the middle of it. On both sides of the cliffs, there were trees struggling to grow out of the cracks in the rocks.
Suddenly there was a tightening on his wrist, and Senior Sister Min let go of her hand just now. Yanxuan was startled and quickly forced himself to calm down. There was an abyss beneath his feet!
Senior Sister Min looked at Yanxuan's slightly pale face and said with a smile: "Isn't it okay? If you panic, the spiritual energy in your body will be chaotic. Once the spiritual energy is chaotic, you will naturally become unstable. Junior Sister Yan, who is it at the beginning? If you are afraid of heights, it doesn’t matter if you are afraid. You have to learn to keep your mind steady no matter how scared you are. If your mind is not confused, your spiritual energy will be unobstructed, and then you will be fine.”
"Thank you, Senior Sister Min." Yanxuan was very grateful after hearing this.
"Come on, let's fly higher and take a look. In fact, when I started to practice this air control technique, I was almost the same as you. I was also scared to death. Even if I fly higher now, I still feel faintly scared when I look at my feet. But I'm scared. It's one thing. Everyone has something to be afraid of. This is another thing from panic. It's better to be afraid but not confused. Look, at this height, you didn't dare to fly so high before. I want to take my hand. Let go and try to stabilize your spiritual energy."
Yanxuan knew that today was a rare opportunity, so he suppressed the panic in his heart and silently recited the mantra of the air-control technique over and over again, allowing the spiritual energy to run in the body according to the rules of the air-control technique. It was really like this, even though he saw the small box-like building below. , the grass-like mountain forest, I am still terrified in my heart, but as long as my spiritual energy is not chaotic, I am really hanging there steadily.
Senior Sister Na Min looked at Yanxuan's face, smiled and said: "Now that I'm by your side, my cultivation level is higher than yours, and I can fly faster than you. If something happens to you, I will definitely be able to catch you. Come on , I will accompany you, and we will go around here twice, you don’t have to worry, we will fly slower at the beginning, you have to keep up with me."
Yanxuan nodded, knowing that Senior Sister Min was trying her best to help him.
The two girls flew twice in the air. When Senior Sister Min stopped and saw that Yanxuan showed no sign of fatigue, she guessed that this little Junior Sister must have good spiritual roots. Otherwise, she would not be able to sustain her spiritual energy for such a long time, so she said to Yanxuan again: " Let’s go back there.”
The two women then flew together to the two adjacent cliffs where Yanxuan had been practicing his courage just now.
"Let's go down to the cliff."
Yanxuan nodded after hearing this. Now that he was here again, he was no longer as panicked as before.
The two girls slowly fell down between the two cliffs. Senior Sister Min looked at the surrounding cliffs and suddenly stopped, and Yanxuan also stopped beside her.
Senior Sister Min pointed to a spot on the cliff and said, "Look there."
Yanxuan looked in the direction pointed by Senior Sister Min and saw a small grass stretching out from the gap in the stone wall.
Senior Sister Min came closer, looked at it carefully and said to Yanxuan: "This is Qizhangcao. If it is old enough, it can be considered a good spiritual herb. Several kinds of elixirs will use it. It is a pity that this one is old." If it’s not enough, don’t worry about it for now.”,
After hearing this, Yanxuan looked at the Qizhang grass carefully and remembered what it looked like.
"The leaves of the seven-piece grass that are old enough are as wide as a finger. There is a green grass fruit in the middle of the leaves, but it does not bloom. It can be picked at that time."
Yanxuan nodded after hearing this, and when he saw Senior Sister Min flying near another cliff, he followed her.
"This is rock vine, also called rock core vine. Just wait until it grows to the thickness of your wrist. You can cut off the exposed ones. Don't worry about the ones inside the stone. It will grow back. Take this vine back and layer it. When one layer is broken open, the innermost thin white strip is what we use. It is so thin that it is pounded into a paste, which is also used for preparing elixirs."
Yanxuan nodded after hearing this, and then took a closer look at the rock heart vine.
In this way, Senior Sister Na Min flew back and forth between the cliffs while falling down, telling Tang Ping about more than a dozen kinds of spiritual herbs, when they could be picked, how to dispose of them when they were brought back, what their uses were, and so on. These were all things that Yanxuan was very interested in, and he couldn't help but follow Senior Sister Na Min as they flew around until the two girls landed on the ground.
After getting down on the ground, Senior Sister Na Min looked at Yanxuan and said with a smile: "Junior Sister Yan, we didn't reach the foot of this cliff just now. When we were flying at high altitudes, you must have been reciting the air control formula silently in your heart over and over again. According to The one who runs the aura, right?”
Yanxuan nodded and said, "Yes, I really don't dare to make any mistakes."
"Then under this cliff just now, I told you so many spiritual herbs. Did you read and memorize them again and again? Are all these spiritual herbs in your mind? Have you stopped a long time ago with the formula of controlling the air? ?”
After hearing this, Yanxuan understood. He couldn't help but look up. It was also filled with clouds and mist, and he couldn't see the cliff for a long time. However, he followed Senior Sister Min all the way. An An fell down, and then he realized why Senior Sister Min explained the spiritual grass like this. It turned out that it was also for her own air control.
"That's it. Thank you so much, Senior Sister Min." Yanxuan's thanks came from the bottom of his heart and he was sincere.
"You don't need to thank me. I'm a senior sister, so I should naturally teach you. This air control technique is actually the feet of us cultivators. When you walk on flat ground, you never silently say "Left foot first, then right foot" in your mind. Well, the same is true for air control. The spiritual grass I just showed you, if we go out to look for spiritual grass ourselves in the future, it will be the same. We have to fly up and search carefully against the mountain walls and cliffs, and then we will gain something. Then you will find airbending as natural as walking."
Yanxuan nodded after hearing this, feeling in his heart that Senior Sister Min was really a good person.
"Okay, that's it for today. I guess this air control technique will never embarrass you again in the future. It's time for us to go back."
"Well, let's go back." After saying that, Yanxuan thought of the pine resin on his clothes and couldn't help frowning, "Oh, this pine oil is not easy to wash off. I don't know if it can be washed off when I go back soon! Weird! It’s a pity that my master just gave me the gift and I ended up like this.”
"Washing?" Senior Sister Min looked at Yanxuan in surprise, and then at the piece of rosin stained on Yanxuan's dress, "Does it still need to be washed?"
After saying that, Senior Sister Na Min stretched out a jade hand and pointed it at the piece of rosin on Yanxuan's body. She moved her palm slightly and saw that the large piece of rosin on Yanxuan's dress gradually came off from the clothes. It slowly hung in the air and gathered into a rosin ball. When Senior Sister Min took back her hand, the rosin ball fell to the ground. The areas on Yanxuan's dress that were previously stained with rosin were as clean as ever.
"Ah!" Yanxuan looked down at his dress, then at the little ball on the ground. When he saw Senior Sister Min floating upwards, he chased after her and asked in surprise, "What kind of spell is this?"
"Spells, haha, I gave them to you a long time ago, "The Art of Controlling Objects", have you forgotten?"
"I haven't practiced the Object Control Technique yet. I have been troubled by the Air Control Technique these days. Senior Sister Min, I didn't expect this Object Control Technique to be so magical!"
"Of course, you can try it yourself later. It will be very useful. However, we at Qixia Mountain do not require our disciples to master this art. Jiuxuan, on the other hand, studies this art of controlling objects most carefully."
"oh"
