This was their first day out. It was already afternoon and evening. The five of them flew away from the small valley and found a secluded place in the mountains, where they rested.
Qian Chao found a cave in the mountains. It seemed that it had been abandoned by some wild beast a long time ago. The cave was not deep, it was dry, and there was no smell or debris. Qian Chao slightly repaired the cave, and the entrance was decorated with trees from the mountains. After covering it up, a temporary landing place was ready.
There was a big stone in the cave, which was flattened by Qian Chao with his spiritual sword and used as a stone table. Several futons were placed around the stone table, and several people sat on it.
Li Jian was fine after taking Yanxuan's medicine. He was only slightly contaminated by the blood mist of the little snake. Coupled with the effective medicine from Qixia Mountain, his original discomfort has been greatly cured.
Although Qian Chao and Tang Ping were also hit by the tail of the big snake, Qian Chao was hit by a shield. The pain was a bit painful, but he was not injured. Tang Ping was even separated by Qian Chao. Qian Chao was hit and then knocked over her, so naturally she was fine.
Lu Pingchuan started to complain that he was hungry as soon as he had some free time. He didn't hunt any wild animals outside that day. Fortunately, he had a lot of food with him. He took it out and distributed it to everyone. Tang Ping also took some spiritual wine when he saw it. When I came out, I also put out the small white and rhubarb that I had brought with me. They ate and chatted about today's events.
"Well, speaking of it, I was reckless," Qian Chao said. "I didn't do enough homework before. I only guessed that there should be spiritual herbs there, but I didn't expect that the monsters there were so powerful that they put everyone in danger. this……"
"Sister Yan," before Qian Chao could finish speaking, Tang Ping interrupted him, but asked Yanxuan, "How long will it take for the rock core vine you first picked in the valley to grow into that shape?"
"Probably... it will take three to forty years. The thicker the rock core vine is, the slower it will grow. The one I picked will probably take longer to grow."
"Well, that's right, Mr. Qian, you don't have to say that," Tang Ping looked at her friends. "We have just come out. The valley is not far from the sect, so we have to be careful along the way." . Generally speaking, there should not be such a powerful guy in a place so close to the sect, but no monks have entered that small valley for at least 30 to 40 years, so it is not surprising that there are some powerful guys in it. Speaking of which, we have never been out before. If we have experience, we should be extra careful when we see that rock core vine. What happened today is a rare experience. We will gain wisdom every time we go through. It’s just a matter of repeating the same mistakes.”
Speaking of which, Tang Ping was very satisfied with the performance of her companions today. None of them were afraid of danger, let alone only thinking about themselves at the critical moment. They were all looking after their companions, which is rare! Especially Qian Chao, who risked his life to block the big snake when it attacked her. The situation at that time caused ripples in her heart. Now that Qian Chao has said this, it is obvious that this kid blames himself for what happened today. Naturally, she has to resolve Qian Chao's mentality, let alone let a few people blame Qian Chao for this in their hearts.
"That's right." Li Jian nodded and said, "Today I realized that there is such a big difference between practicing within the sect and working outside the sect. If you don't go out and experience it, just practice hard behind closed doors in the sect, there will never be much improvement. "
Lu Pingchuan said: "Hey, it's still so enjoyable. I've never seen such a powerful snake before following Master. Alas, I just didn't have a good fight today."
"Oh, I'm just too timid. When I saw that big snake, I was so scared that I didn't know what to do."
After listening to Yanxuan's words, Tang Ping said: "Sister Yan, your Phoenix Breath Technique is really powerful. It burned it all at once. It would be great if I knew how to do this. How could I let it burn?" So arrogant!"
"Well, speaking of it, this is the first time I have killed a living being today!" When he said this, Yanxuan's face darkened a little. "The Phoenix Breath Technique is also the only spell I know that can hurt people. In the past, I only focused on refining alchemy, which I learned after Senior Sister Min pushed me to do it, and I was only half-baked. As soon as I started using it, I couldn’t control it, and I had to use the spiritual energy almost before I could stop."
"Sister Yan," Tang Ping said angrily, "you are not only timid, you are also too serious sometimes. Think about it, this is also the second time you have used this Phoenix Breath Technique. The first time you have used it, you I rescued Senior Sister Na Min. Today was the second time. You saw how powerful that big snake was. At that time, two wind snakes merged. It was incredible. If it dragged on for a long time, a few of us would inevitably be injured. Even If there is danger, you can solve it as soon as you take action, and a few of us will be out of danger, right? Besides, even if we didn't go there today, and you didn't kill those two wind snakes today, there's no guarantee that there won't be anyone in the sect in the future. If our disciples go there, even if they have our means, they may not be as united as we are. If they panic and run for their lives, one or two of them may be alone and be killed by the wind snake. Your action today will not count. Killing is saving lives.”
After hearing Tang Ping's words, Yanxuan's heart naturally felt much smoother. He couldn't help but look at Tang Ping and said, "Well, I feel less awkward when you say that."
After Qian Chao listened to Tang Ping's words, he secretly thought that Tang Ping was really smart and transparent. At this time, he remembered that in the cave, Sister Yan's face was excited when she saw the curling vine flower. Even later, two wind snakes suddenly trapped a few people. Even though Sister Yan was scared, she still took the risk to kill those five flowers first. After picking the flowers, what is the use of the rolled vine flowers?
"Sister Yan, I see that you attach great importance to that roll of vine flowers. What kind of elixir is it used to refine?"
Qian Chao asked, and the others also looked at Yanxuan.
"This rolled vine flower is naturally very precious," Yanxuan said, taking out the five rolled vine flowers from the storage bag. She had placed the five rolled vine flowers in five crystal vases, separated by the bottles. You can see the flowers inside from the wall.
"Well, there are two elixirs that are very important to us that use this scroll of vine flowers," Yanxuan said, placing the five small crystal bottles on the stone table for everyone to look at, "One It’s called Mu Qing Dan. If a Qi refining monk is trapped in the Small Five Levels and can never break through, taking Mu Qing Dan will be of great help.”
"Xiao Wu Guan..."
"I see."
Only then did a few people understand why Yanxuan was so excited when he saw the curling vine flower in the cave.
Several people know the theory of these five small passes. It means that when a monk starts from refining Qi, the fourth level of Qi refining breaks through to the fifth level. This breakthrough is a small pass during the entire Qi refining stage of the monk. In addition to the level that is the most difficult to pass, the second is the fifth level. I don’t know how many disciples in the sect have wasted more than ten years or even more in practicing qi because of the obstacles of this small five levels. Therefore, although many disciples look like young adults or even middle-aged, their cultivation is still in qi refining. Most of them were wasted for some years in this Xiaowu Pass. Not only in sects like the Wuling Sect, but also in some aristocratic families, the nephews and nephews of later generations can only have the ability and qualifications to serve their families if they have passed the Xiaowu Pass. Otherwise, they will not be able to serve their families. He was treated as a real monk, and only as a Qi-refining boy.
It turns out that the Muqing Pill refined from this roll of vine flowers is used to help the monks pass the Xiaowu Pass, so it is naturally extremely precious.
"Then there is another elixir, what is it?"
"The other remaining pill is the Foundation Establishment Pill..."
"What!"
As soon as these words came out, several people's faces were even more surprised. They stayed for a while, no one said anything, they just looked at each other. Mu Qing Dan can only help the monks pass the fifth level. Foundation Establishment Dan, high-level If Qi refining disciples want to break through to the foundation-building level, they must have this foundation-building pill as an aid, otherwise it will be even more difficult. Because of this, the Foundation Establishment Pill is considered to be priceless. Although there are many higher-level pills than the Foundation Establishment Pill, there are tens of thousands of Qi Refining disciples in the sect. As long as they are Qi Refining disciples, everyone wants to have one. There are even more Foundation Establishment Pills. Even if you don’t need them now, it’s good to keep them for now and use them when you get there.
However, since it is such a precious spiritual herb, it will definitely be coveted by others if the news is leaked. Qian Chao thought that there were some things he wanted to say, but he was a little worried, but in the end it was better to say it.
"I have often heard in the Chengqi Hall that senior brothers and sisters who are high-level in Qi refining fight fiercely outside the sect. If they fight for rare spiritual herbs or other treasures, they often fight with their lives. They are no different from the enemy. All they do is build a foundation. This shows how difficult it is to build a foundation. Unexpectedly, the first time we came out, we encountered the spirit flower refining the foundation building pill. It was really...Sister Yan, Please keep these five spiritual flowers properly. We should not talk to others about this matter after we return to the sect. The five of us work together and naturally trust each other, but we cannot take such precious spiritual flowers. Testing others to see if they are greedy, otherwise it will be good if they can stand the test, but it will not be helpful to us; if we cannot stand it, we will not only lose a friend, but it will only add trouble to ourselves."
Except for Lu Pingchuan who was confused, the other three people understood these words, especially Yanxuan.
Don't use priceless treasures to test whether a person is greedy. Even those close to you will often turn their backs on their friends when it comes to choices related to their own future and lives.
Lu Pingchuan didn't care, he would just stop talking if Brother Qian didn't let him.
Li Jian listened and nodded without saying anything.
Tang Ping looked at Yanxuan. She knew that Sister Yan and Senior Sister Min were the best friends, and Senior Sister Min was also a very good person. All five people here thought that Senior Sister Min was very good, but Qian Chao was worried about Yan because of this. If Xuan told Senior Sister Min about the wisteria flower, if Senior Sister Min had other thoughts, then Sister Yan would probably be the saddest one. Losing a friend would only add a lot of worries!
There was another change in Yanxuan's heart. She understood what Qian Chao meant, but she was still a little bit unconvinced at first. She thought that with Senior Sister Min's character, even if she told her, it would be nothing more than asking her to If you say a few words of congratulations to yourself, Senior Sister Feimin will be envious. But after thinking about it carefully, she gave up her one or two points of dissatisfaction. Brother Qian really has an insight into people's temperaments, which he is far inferior to. I still want to be long-term friends with Senior Sister Min, so I'd better not show Senior Sister Min this tempting curling vine flower. , that is not the way to be a friend.
"Well, I understand what Brother Qian means. Don't worry. I only have one friend in Qixia Mountain, Senior Sister Min. I cherish her very much. I want to be friends with her for a long time in the future."
When Yanxuan said this, Qian Chao naturally understood and smiled slightly.
Tang Ping felt that the atmosphere around this matter was somewhat solemn, so she said:
"This flower is actually used to refine the Foundation Building Pill. No wonder, Sister Yan, you probably don't know. As soon as you entered the cave, you froze, your face turned red, and your eyes widened. I just stared at the wisteria flowers."
