Late at night, everything was silent, and Shicheng was shrouded in deathly silence.
Feng Qingwu sat cross-legged on the bed, the Taoist charm flowing around her body, and the spiritual power surging in her body, one after another, hitting the barriers that hindered the breakthrough, and the barrier that represented the foundation was constantly vibrating.
Just like thin paper, it seems to break when touched.
However, Feng Qingwu has no intention of breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage. Although she will definitely reach the Foundation Establishment stage as long as she tries to break through now, she will have regrets if she does not recover the lost spiritual root and sword bone.
Such regrets are also the ups and downs in the journey of cultivating immortality in the future.
Therefore, Feng Qingwu has been suppressing his realm without breaking through. He just keeps using his spiritual power to impact his body that adapts to the spiritual power, and constantly polishes his foundation stronger.
First, re-cultivate the Qi training period, and then suppress the cultivation level.
Feng Qingwu didn't even know how much stronger his own background was than others.
Just when she was concentrating on practicing, she suddenly heard a shrill cry, heartbreaking and painful, ringing through the night.
Feng Qingwu stood up and quickly came to the window.
Mu Jiuke, who was half asleep, also followed immediately.
When she opened the window, she could see the streets of Shicheng outside. There was a cool night breeze, and the breeze slightly ruffled the ends of her hair.
But Feng Qingwu frowned.
"There is the smell of blood in the wind..."
"Roar--"
Mu Jiuke let out a low roar, his eyes full of vigilance, but the object of his vigilance was Feng Qingwu - don't chase this little lunatic out directly!
But at this time, the guest room door was also knocked, and Jiang Zicheng's voice appeared: "Sister, did you hear it?"
"Come in."
Hearing this, Jiang Zicheng ran in, followed by Xia Tao and Chen Shi. His expression was also a little stiff: "Senior Sister, it smells of blood. What on earth is going on in Shicheng?"
"... Among the news from Tianji Pavilion, there is this."
Feng Qingwu's face darkened: "There are many strange places in this stone city. One is the strange storm in the evening, and the other is a very strange rumor, and I have never known whether it is true or not."
Jiang Zicheng was stunned: "Is it true or false?"
Feng Qingwu didn't say anything, but jumped down from the wide open window. Before leaving, he said to them: "Go and take a look before talking."
Mu Jiuke, who was still lying at the window, was shocked.
"I knew that this little lunatic would definitely chase him out!"
Before Jiang Zicheng and the others could react, the dark cub also jumped out, leaving only the other people in the guest room staring.
This main pet is a virtue!
…
At the same time, after Feng Qingwu chased him out, he followed the direction of the cry he heard before and looked for it, only to find that it was a mortal's home, and the midwife was holding a blood-stained wrapper.
The woman lying on the bed and the man standing guard outside the house were both crying so hard that they looked hysterical.
Feng Qingwu couldn't help but frown and approached while hiding his aura.
At this time, the midwife said: "My condolences. There was no problem before the birth. I also stayed with the old lady during the delivery. Everything went smoothly, but... no one could have imagined that she still encountered a curse."
"The power of the curse cannot be resisted by humans. Maybe... this child does not have the blessing of being born."
Hearing this, Feng Qingwu couldn't help but frown.
On the other hand, the couple who were almost out of control responded to the curse spoken by the midwife, their eyes filled with glaring hatred and pain...
After a few words of conversation, the midwife realized that the two of them were out of control and in a bad mood. She could only shake her head, hold the wrapping in her arms and prepare to leave, and said smoothly: "In this case, let's deal with it as usual."
"You don't have any objections, alas..."
The man resisted his grief and said: "No, please, if the curse is not handled well, we will all die..."
"Child, my child..."
Only the woman after giving birth wanted to get up and rush out after hearing this, shouting at the top of her lungs: "Curse, another curse!"
"Give me my baby back—"
But after struggling for a long time, the midwife still hugged the blood-stained and scarlet wrapping cloth with regret and left. After seeing the trembling figure of the midwife leaving, Feng Qingwu followed suit.
After wandering a long way through the alleys of Shicheng, the midwife didn't stop until she was getting farther and farther away and almost approaching the edge of Shicheng.
She raised the wrapping in her arms—
Only then did Feng Qingwu see clearly what it was.
It was clearly a newborn baby that was even stained with blood, and there was a big hole in the baby's belly!
But before Feng Qingwu could see clearly, the midwife held up the baby in the wrapper and let go. Then she saw the wrapper falling outside the scope of Shicheng, and then the midwife left tremblingly.
After the midwife left, Feng Qingwu started to use his spiritual power. His body was as light as a flying swallow, and the corners of his green shirt moved with the wind.
The next moment, she landed lightly on the spot where the midwife had been standing.
But when Feng Qingwu wanted to lower his head and take a clear look at the baby thrown away by the midwife, he found that the baby had disappeared out of thin air!
Behind him, there was a slight sound of footsteps.
Feng Qingwu thought it was Jiang Zicheng and the others who had followed, and explained: "The second weird thing about Shicheng is the rumors about the curse."
"There are rumors that the people in Shicheng have offended the gods and offended the laws of heaven. All babies born have a certain probability of being disemboweled and died, but... the proportion is not high."
"So, many people don't believe this so-called curse. Only those who have encountered it think it is true..."
"There are various opinions, and Tianji Pavilion has not adopted them all."
After Feng Qingwu finished speaking, she noticed that Jiang Zicheng didn't answer. When she turned her head, she saw a dark shadow rushing toward her. She subconsciously caught it, and then realized that it was her little white.
And Mu Jiuke's claws just touched her beautiful collarbone.
A pair of beastly eyes were filled with the condemnation of being left behind.
Feng Qingwu couldn't help but laugh: "In these three foundation-building periods, they are indeed inferior to each other. Why are they not as good as you?"
"Stupid woman, are you comparing me to three ants?"
Under the moonlight, the pitch-black cub raised its little head proudly, squinting at Feng Qingwu with its beastly eyes, as if it was being dragged up to the sky.
Feng Qingwu shook her head and couldn't help laughing, but after calming down her emotions, she looked at the place outside Shicheng where the baby's body should have been with a gloomy expression: "The situation in Shicheng is getting worse and worse."
"It's a pity that I didn't see the specific situation clearly. Is there really no connection between these strange things..."
Feng Qingwu felt vaguely.
I'm afraid it won't be that easy to get the dragon's inner elixir.
If she were not careful, she might also be in danger of dying.
When she thought of this, Feng Qingwu instinctively looked up at the night sky. She was not wary of the trio of foundation builders who were following her. She was actually worried about the far away Sword Lord Qingheng, whose strength in the God Transformation stage was unfathomable.
Feng Qingwu couldn't guarantee that far away in Tianxuan Sect, Qingheng Jianjun had no means to take action, so - he was so diligent in the auction, not just to get Jianwan in vain and to make him unhappy.
What's more... is that Sword Master Qingheng has no energy to care about this place.
"Calculate the time, at the speed of Duobao Pavilion."
"That fake spiritual heart has already arrived at Tianxuan Sect, right?"
