night……
The sky is filled with stars.
On an endless prairie, Tuoba Wan'er's white hair fluttered in the wind like catkins. She sat on the soft grass in despair, her crystal tears falling down one by one like broken pearls.
"Fellow Daoist Li, I'm afraid I have to say goodbye to you." Tuoba Wan'er said solemnly.
"Why are you leaving?" Li Shuidao asked doubtfully.
"Erden is no longer here. Golden Staff Immortal City needs me, and I can't leave at this time." Tuoba Wan'er replied melancholy.
Li Shuidao was silent for a moment, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, "You have to be careful about that sword cultivator!"
Tuoba Wan'er looked surprised, "Do you know who he is?"
"I don't know who he is, but I know that he is from the Yunmang Sword Sect and came here for Dragon Bone Tai Sui. When he saw Erden holding Dragon Bone Tai Sui in his hand, he took action madly. The sword cultivator can't find Dragon Bone Tai Sui now. He will definitely find a white-haired female cultivator, that is, you! After he finds you, he will never listen to your explanation. It must be a soul-searching technique." Li Shuidao said seriously.
Tuoba Wan'er pointed at "Qiu Lanying" and said with an incredulous look on her face: "She is the spirit demon transformed by Dragon Bone Tai Sui?"
Li Shuidao nodded and said, "Yes."
Tuoba Wan'er clenched her fist tightly and said, "What else are you hiding from me?"
Li Shuidao sighed and said, "Although we are friends, our friendship is shallow but deep."
"Haha... So we still have a close relationship?" Tuoba Wan'er laughed at himself, sadness and disappointment pouring out of his eyes like a tide.
"Wan'er..." Li Shuidao called softly, with deep helplessness in his voice.
"Don't call me Wan'er!" Tuoba Wan'er suddenly shouted angrily: "You didn't call me Wan'er!"
"Fellow Taoba Tuoba, you can go back if you want, but remember to stay in seclusion." Li Shuidao finally reminded.
"I don't need your teaching!" Tuoba Wan'er turned into a ray of light and quickly disappeared on the grassland.
"Alas..." Li Shuidao let out a long sigh.
People always learn to cherish things after they are lost...
Li Shuidao looked up at the direction where Tuoba Wan'er disappeared, with complicated emotions flashing in his eyes.
This friendship may have come to an end.
"You're just going to let her go like this?" Qiu Lanying asked in a hoarse, low voice.
This is obviously the sound of Dragon Bone Tai Sui.
Li Shuidao turned to look at Qiu Lanying and asked curiously: "Then what do you think we should do?"
"Cut the grass without eradicating the root, but the spring breeze will blow it and it will grow again." Qiu Lanying continued to reply in a hoarse voice.
"Hahahaha..." Li Shuidao raised his head and laughed: "You are a ruthless character, but your choice of words is not appropriate."
"I have already warned you about the risk. If she is still searched for her soul, then I can only say that all benevolence and justice must be done, and everyone can settle down with their destiny." Li Shuidao said calmly.
Qiu Lanying looked at Li Shuidao with slightly narrowed eyes, with a touch of disdain in her expression: "Aren't you afraid if her soul is searched?"
"First, I have warned of the risks. She may not be soul-searched; second, even if she is soul-searched, Yunmang Sword Sect may not be able to find me. After all, the place of birth I told her is false. , South China Sea, Xiantao Bay, there has been no Li family for a long time; thirdly, even if the Yunmang Sword Sect can find me, by that time I must have become a top expert of the Five Poison Sect, living in Dulong Ridge, Yunmang Sword Sect The third-level monks we sent will definitely not dare to come." Li Shuidao analyzed slowly.
"What about True Monarch Wuxiang?" Dragon Bone Tai Sui continued to ask.
"The possibility of the True Lord Wuxiang coming to the Five Poison Sect is actually very low. After all, the Five Poisons Sect and the Yunmang Sword Sect are hostile to each other. Even if the True Lord Wuxiang really comes, he will not be able to find me because I am only in name. I live in Dulong Ridge all year round, but in fact I may not be in Black Mountain at all. As for the possibility that Wuxiang Zhenjun is waiting for me at the headquarters of Wudu Sect, there is no chance at all. After all, the Yunmang Sword Sect could only look for Dragon Bone Tai Sui back then. The fact that you gave up after two years of searching shows that your attraction to the True Monarch Wuxiang is really ordinary, and I am by no means indispensable to get you." Li Shuidao analyzed slowly.
After listening to Li Shuidao's analysis, Dragon Bone Tai Sui also felt that it made sense.
"Then you plan to return to the Five Poison Sect now?"
"Of course I'm not in a hurry to go back. I will first raise my cultivation to the peak of the second level, then return to the Five Poison Sect to win the Heavenly Ranking, and then try to advance to the third level." Li Shuidao said his plan.
Li Shuidao's cultivation has progressed so fast, so he must have had an adventure, but the adventure has been digested outside, and it has not yet been digested are two different things.
The former will attract jealousy from others, and the latter will usher in greed from others.
In addition, if the Wuxiang True Lord of the Yunmang Sword Sect really knew that he possessed Dragon Bone Tai Sui, the most likely possibility would be to entrust someone else to make a deal with him.
High-level monks don't like to fight and kill, especially if they go to the Five Poison Sect's lair to guard and kill people, it's simply impossible!
It must be a combination of coaxing and deception...
Although Li Shuidao didn't intend to sell it at all, he couldn't let Dragon Bone Tai Sui know, otherwise the spirit demon might not be willing to follow him.
If Dragon Bone Tai Sui stays with him for one more day, his cultivation will skyrocket.
…
Qiu Lanying felt like she had slept for a long time...
Until there was a familiar feeling in my chest again.
"Um……"
Qiu Lanying let out a cry.
In the endless grassland, she slowly opened her eyes. The first thing she noticed was her chest. Her clothes had been untied...
Then she sat up, and at a glance, her master Li Shuidao was not far away, sitting on the ground in a strange posture, immersed in practice.
Tears suddenly filled Qiu Lanying's eyes. In the past days, every time she woke up, she would find herself alone. In this vast grassland, she was as lonely as if she was the only one left in the world.
And now, in this silent night, her master appeared. He was like a solid mountain, sitting there quietly, bringing her a sense of stability with his presence.
She didn't dare to disturb her master's practice, so she could only watch carefully from the side. She knew this was the only thing she could do. At this moment, the master is like a bright star, lighting up this grassland alone. The moonlight shines on his body and flows on his face, making his face deeper and more majestic.
When Li Shuidao finished his training, the master and apprentice looked at each other.
"Master, you finally found me." Qiu Lanying threw herself into Li Shuidao's arms and burst into tears.
Li Shuidao gently stroked her hair and comforted her in a low voice.
"Master, I'm so afraid of losing you." Qiu Lanying said with sobs.
"Don't be afraid, I will always be by your side." Li Shuidao said softly.
After a long time...
"Apprentice, I have found a technique suitable for you, called "Ten Thousand Trees and Flowers Blooming"." Li Shuidao took out a thread-bound Taoist book from his storage bag and handed it to Qiu Lanying.
Qiu Lanying took the Taoist book and was filled with gratitude. She could finally start practicing.
"This technique can make you a very powerful spiritual planter." Li Shuidao said, "You need to slowly understand its essence and essentials during practice..."
Li Shuidao began to guide Qiu Lanying into a state of cultivation. Their breathing slowly became deep and powerful, their bodies seemed to merge into the moonlight, and their souls began to mingle with the surrounding vegetation.
Under Li Shuidao's guidance, Qiu Lanying began to sense the surrounding vegetation. She felt weak powers coming from the grass and trees, and these powers seemed to flow through her body. She began to try to channel these powers into her fingers, and then use these powers to nourish a surrounding plant.
Three months later…
Qiu Lanying took the initiative to take off her shirt, and then kneaded herself...
Li Shuidao sat in front of his apprentice.
"Eat quickly." Qiu Lanying urged.
Qiu Lanying dropped Tai Sui Spiritual Milk into Li Shuidao's mouth...
His face gradually turned rosy, as if a warm power surged out of his body.
Li Shuidao's breath became long and stable, as if integrated with the energy between heaven and earth.
Gradually, Li Shuidao felt that his body was full of strength and vitality. His internal organs seemed to be nourished by a warm breath, and his meridians and bones were gradually repaired and strengthened with the help of Tai Sui Spiritual Milk.
At this time, Li Shuidao's cultivation had reached the peak of the second level, which was the late stage of the Rong Ling realm.
At this time, his magic power was no longer enhanced, but he still devoured Tai Sui Spiritual Milk every day.
This object not only enhances his magic power, but also strengthens his physical body.
If you want to advance to the third level, you must have a strong physical body.
If the "virtual realm" is in a monk's body, it relies on the monk's physical body for support.
The more powerful the physical body is, the stronger the "virtual realm" is.
Cultivation has reached this level...
The trip to the grassland has also reached a state of complete merit.
After a long time...
Qiu Lanying re-buttoned her clothes, and Li Shuidao continued to refine the "spiritual medicine". Taking advantage of this moment, she strolled into the grass.
She dug through the grass and found a spiritual grass. This spiritual grass has a silvery luster all over its body, and its leaves are slender and covered with strange lines. She immediately recognized that this spiritual grass was the Silver Flower that the master often mentioned.
Psoralea is a unique grassland herb with extremely high medicinal value.
This psoralen has not bloomed yet. Usually, when mature, the psoralea blooms into beautiful flowers that emit a unique fragrance.
Qiu Lanying carefully observed the psoralen and found that it seemed to be withered. She couldn't help but feel pity in her heart, and decided to use her own Taoism to nourish this precious spiritual grass.
She sat down cross-legged and gently touched the leaves of the silver-leaf flower with her hands. Her spiritual power began to flow into the Silver Flower, nourishing its vitality. Her breathing gradually synchronized with the rhythm of the psoralen, as if she had established some mysterious connection with it.
Time passed quietly, and Qiu Lanying stared at the Silver Flower with all her heart.
Suddenly, she noticed that the psoralea began to change. Its leaves slowly turned green, and the withered buds on them began to bloom again.
Qiu Lanying showed a smile, and the Taoist method "Ten Thousand Trees and Flowers Blooming" she practiced has also achieved results...
