In the next two days, Li Xiuyuan did not go further into the mountains and forests, but stayed near the mountain streams to search for the elixir.
A hundred-year elixir is enough for him. After all, Dongfang Ruyu only needs the elixir to provide energy for now, and does not need a thousand-year elixir to break through the realm.
Only Huangfu Qinglian was not willing to give in. The century-old elixir was really not of much use to her right now. She would need more elixirs to restore her cultivation in the years to come.
That night, Huangfu Qinglian boiled three branches of the century-old elixir and made a bowl of concoction. She wanted to return to a higher state as soon as possible.
At least, he had to survive a disaster before Li Xiuyuan left.
Otherwise, once Li Xiuyuan leaves Peach Blossom Spring, she may not even be able to find anyone to accompany her into the mountains to search for the elixir.
Li Xiuyuan, who was sitting under the tree making tea, silently watched Huangfu Qinglian's every move. He was very aware of this feeling of losing his cultivation.
It's just that she helped this guy twice. From now on, she has to rely on herself.
Except for the prehistoric world back then, he had only seen elixirs for decades on the Tianshan Mountains.
When I was with Xiaoqing in the back hill of the academy, I didn't seem to have seen the thousand-year-old elixir. Thinking about it carefully, I really couldn't help.
Holding a bowl of medicinal juice, Huangfu Qinglian thought for a moment and asked, "Do you think that if I drink a bowl of elixir, I can overcome the disaster overnight?"
"cannot."
Li Xiuyuan replied calmly: "At most, you can break through another level...unless you can find the body of the black eagle."
"Why?" Huangfu Qinglian was stunned for a moment.
"Because there is a demon pill in that guy's body, which can provide you with powerful spiritual power to help you break through.
...And I don’t know where that guy flew to. "
Li Xiuyuan didn't want to say this at first, but seeing Huangfu Qinglian's anxious look, he had to say it.
This thought gave her an idea, provided that she could find the body of the black hawk.
However, he didn't dare to hold out hope. After all, several days had passed. Even if the guy died somewhere, he might have been eaten by wild beasts in the forest.
When Huangfu Qingmei heard this, she was stunned and speechless.
Looking at the bowl of elixir in his hand, he shouted: "Why didn't you tell me earlier? Then I could have stopped it?"
Li Xiuyuan shook his head, thinking that when a monster wants to escape, how can you catch up with it? Not to mention, it's a flying monster.
At the moment, he focused on the teacup in his hand and no longer cared about whether Huangfu Qinglian could break through.
Cultivation is not something that happens overnight.
After blowing gently, Huangfu Qingmei took a sip of the elixir, and then drank the whole bowl of elixir one after another.
He walked over, picked up the spiritual tea that Li Xiuyuan had just brewed, poured a cup of it, held it in his hand and drank it slowly.
Then, he fell down in front of Li Xiuyuan, feeling the power of the elixir spreading through his body.
The spiritual energy in her body circulates, urging the medicinal power in her meridians to rush to the pass ahead, but after all, she has been sleeping for thousands of years, and many places in her meridians have been blocked...
Impact after impact, failure after failure, Huangfu Qinglian was not discouraged.
Compared with death, this pain was nothing to her.
Under Li Xiuyuan's gaze, after failing again and again,
The spiritual energy in his body finally opened up some blocked meridians.
But the pass through which she broke through was still standing there, not broken by her.
"If you can't rush through, why not rest for a while... You're not in a hurry, so why are you in a hurry?"
Seeing Huangfu Qinglian's uncomfortable look, Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but shook his head and reminded softly.
In his opinion, even if he couldn't make it through today, so what? Isn’t it still tomorrow or the day after tomorrow? It’s not a bad idea to accumulate a lot of experience.
Huangfu Qinglian frowned, but stopped and ignored Li Xiuyuan's words.
She was already standing on the edge of breaking through, experiencing failure after failure. Finally, she saw the hope of breaking through. How could she relax at this time?
Li Xiuyuan didn't expect her to be so stubborn, so he stopped saying anything at that moment.
He is a mortal now and has no spiritual power to help Huangfu Qinglian. He can only watch her sweating from the anxiety, but he can't help at all.
Silently, Huangfu Qinglian launched the third, fourth, and fifth impact.
Thousands of years of life and death enlightenment have made her very different from before. Now she has enough patience to complete the practice of each realm again and again.
Not to mention, she has just recovered her realm now.
I don’t know how much time passed, but when the moon came out in the sky, the spiritual energy from the mountain stream rushed towards Huangfu Qinglian who fell to the ground...
Li Xiuyuan sighed softly and thought to himself, why bother?
Different from him, Huangfu Qinglian could not suppress the excitement in her heart, opened her eyes and said, "I am closer to the day of overcoming the tribulation."
For her, every time she recovers,
If you rebuild your body, you will have more power to protect yourself.
In the forest, someone said that by helping the monster-like young man in front of her, even if she could protect herself from being harmed by the monster, it would be very difficult.
Breaking through the realm was a long-lost and wonderful feeling for her.
A faint golden light flashed past her, and the sky over the mountain stream returned to its previous tranquility.
In the distance, small beasts that came out to look for food at night were uttering low sounds. To Huangfu Qinglian's ears, it sounded like the sound of nature.
Sighing, Huangfu Qinglian said quietly: "My cultivation is not strong enough, but the impact again and again can open up my blocked meridians. It won't be long before I can break through to another level."
Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said nothing.
One thing he forgot was that the guy in front of him had been sleeping in the cave for a thousand years, if it weren't for the memory of his previous life and his own incredible power.
This guy is probably no different from the ordinary monks in Peach Blossom Spring.
She needs to practice hard again and again to break through.
However, Huangfu Qinglian has already had the experience of breaking through the realm and overcoming the tribulation. At the moment, she just needs time, and does not need a powerful old man to be her master.
Thinking about it this way, this guy can be regarded as an existence that defies heaven.
"Congratulations, go to rest early."
Li Xiuyuan shook his head and added spiritual tea to their cups. He planned to wait for Huangfu Qinglian to rest, talk to his master, and ask when he could leave.
Huangfu Qinglian held back a slight tremor in her heart, held a cup of spiritual tea, looked at the moon in the sky, and sighed softly.
As long as we find some more elixirs in the mountains, there will be no need
How long will it take for her to recover enough to survive the first catastrophe? In this way, it will take less than a hundred years for her to leave this world.
"I will continue to look for the elixir tomorrow, and then look for the black eagle." Huangfu Qinglian looked at Li Xiuyuan and said.
Li Xiuyuan stretched his arms and replied: "Then stay for three more days. After three days, I want to go back to the village to have a look. I can't always look for elixirs here..."
After watching Huangfu Qinglian pack up the elixir in front of him and go to rest, Li Xiuyuan murmured to himself.
"Master, when can this disciple leave the Peach Blossom Spring? When can Dongfang Ruyu complete this Phoenix Nirvana?"
What disappointed him was that this time, the old Taoist priest did not respond to him.
Even the old monk who would reply from time to time didn't know where he had gone. In the faint night sky, only the dark moon quietly illuminated the woods on the mountain stream.
Bored, Li Xiuyuan tried to ask again: "Is the Bodhisattva here? Do you want to have a drink?"
After half a while, like the old Taoist priest, Ksitigarbha, who would always respond to him whenever he shouted, ignored him tonight.
In the end, Li Xiuyuan was helpless and moved the guqin out.
He couldn't remember how many years he had not played the piano. He first used a silk scarf to gently wipe the body and strings of the piano.
I tried to tune the strings again, looking at the half-moon crescent in the sky, but I was thinking about what kind of music I should play at this time.
Only when the situation arises. After hesitating for a long time, he finally stroked Si Wuxie.
The moonlight was faint, shining quietly on his body and on the piano platform.
The melodious sound of the piano, like a clear spring in the mountains, flows around Li Xiuyuan
, like a pair of big hands caressing Huangfu Qinglian in his dream.
A song about innocence, gently comforting a restless soul after rebirth and breaking through.
Just like, yes, just like the spring breeze blowing slowly in the mountains.
…
Above the Nine Heavens, there is a valley three thousand miles away from where Yelu Mingzhu and Xiaoju live.
If Li Xiuyuan were here, he would be surprised that this place is a replica of where he is.
A stream of water flows slowly in the valley. The difference is that the waterfall, which is not as powerful as thousands of horses galloping, keeps making waves day and night.
Above the mountain stream, there are several stone houses of different heights and sizes, and there are also some wooden houses scattered among the mountains.
A round moon shines on the mountain stream and also enters the living room of a wooden house.
Lao Meng drank a few glasses of wine and was too drunk. He waved goodbye to Jin Wuming and Wang Yi and went back to the house to rest.
Meng Xiaodie took Yelu Mingzhu's hand and walked out the door, followed by Xiaoju with a red face. The three of them also drank a few glasses of Gao Yue'er and Qingyu's apricot flower wine.
Under the influence of alcohol, I had to go back to the house to sleep.
Xiao Guang had no interest in drinking with his father at all. He had gone to Xiao Bao for tea early, and at least he still had Xiao Yue'er to tell jokes.
Unlike his father and brother Wang, who only brag after drinking.
Only Murong Shuyu and Ye Xiaoqian were guarding the two men.
After collecting the bowls and chopsticks, Ye Xiaoqian said to Wang Yi: "While Mingzhu is here, if you have anything you don't understand, just ask more, don't be embarrassed."
"That's not true. After all, Mingzhu is also Li Xiuyuan's precious disciple and goddaughter."
At this moment, Qin Xiangyu had dinner with Wang Xiaoyueer and Xiaobao
After that, he also came over to chat with Ye Xiaoqian. Before she even entered the door, she started scolding her.
"You men, don't be embarrassed. This is Master Li Xiuyuan's kindness. He doesn't even teach Yelu Pearl, let alone teach you."
Since Yelu Mingzhu arrived, Qin Xiangyu has often asked about Li Xiuyuan.
Yelu Mingzhu did not hide anything about her master's past from this group of people. She said both what should be said and what should not be said.
In the end, even Xiaoju blamed Yelu Mingzhu for talking too much and would definitely be punished by the old monk when she returned home.
Looking at Wang Yi in the living room, Qin Xiangyu smiled: "I used to focus solely on making money, and I forgot that I was a better monk than you."
Wang Yi looked at her and smiled bitterly: "Normally, I knew Mr. before this guy. It's just fate that made me waste twenty years."
Ye Xiaoqian sighed: "After all, Xiaoguang has the best luck. He was able to become a master under Senior Gao Yue'er on the snow mountain."
Although Jin Wujue drank a few more glasses of wine tonight, he was thinking about the past at the Hongchen Inn.
Seeing Qin Xiangyu sighing, he smiled bitterly and said, "If I had known that Amu was Mingzhu's master, I would never have left the inn, and even made an appointment for another competition with this guy."
Qin Xiangyu clapped his hands and looked at Murong Shuyu and smiled: "You have to thank Madam. It was she who fought with you on the snow mountain for Wang Yi."
Ye Xiaoqian shook her head, looked at everyone and said, "Sir has given us this opportunity, so we shouldn't just think about the past."
Wang Yi smiled: "That's true."
