"Su Meng Villa?"
In a side alley with few pedestrians, Li Xiaoliu read out the words on the plaque of the closed courtyard door, then turned around with a puzzled look on his face and asked:
"Fourth Senior Sister, this is obviously a private residence, can we go in?"
It was rare that Su Qingqing didn't reply to Li Xiaoliu. She looked at the courtyard door with a slightly sad look in her eyes, but after just a moment, her expression returned to normal, she took out an array key and inserted it into the groove of the courtyard door.
Kakaka——
As the sound of the machine's rotation sounded, the blocking formation immediately dispersed, and the door opened to both sides on its own.
This private residence belongs to Fourth Senior Sister? !
Li Xiaoliu opened his mouth in shock.
Sword City is revered as a holy city by sword cultivators, and the price of private houses is not low. He has heard that the smallest one costs one million high-grade spiritual stones, not to mention that this private house looks not small.
Fourth Senior Sister, is she so rich?
While Li Xiaoliu was shocked, Xiang Shu followed Su Qingqing into the courtyard.
This courtyard has obviously not been inhabited for a long time. As soon as Xiang Shu came in, the budding spirit of time in his body was touched, and he sensed that the charm of ancient time sealed in the formation was passing quickly as the formation was opened.
At least a thousand years...
Xiang Shen's eyes flickered. In other words, the fourth senior sister was a person from at least a thousand years ago in her previous life.
Neither of them spoke as they walked.
Su Qingqing was walking in front. Xiang Shu could not see her expression, but his spiritual sense had a hint that the fourth senior sister was in a very low mood at the moment.
After a while, Su Qingqing led Xiang Shu to a room. Her expression was not depressed and she said with a smile:
"Junior sister, you can live here, go in and see if you like it?"
Xiang Shu nodded and reached out to push open the door.
The furnishings in the house are quite exquisite, including desks, collections of books, soft couches, incense tables, and futons. They are all spotless under the maintenance of the formation.
"There is a small spiritual pond behind the room here, which is perfect for meditation, digestion and enlightenment."
Su Qingqing added, pointing to the stairs outside the house: "There is a small attic above the room. You can see the outside of the courtyard. The scenery is very good. If you feel bored after practicing for a long time, you can go up and have a rest."
When Xiang Shu heard this, he suddenly said, "Fourth Senior Sister, this is your room, right?"
"Did you see it?"
Su Qingqing smiled: "Yes, I used to live here when I was practicing in Sword City, but with my current cultivation level, I don't need the Little Spirit Pond anymore, so you can stay here with peace of mind."
"Junior sister, are you relieved? What about me?"
Li Xiaoliu was leaning against the door at some point, with Lao Gao pouting and looking unhappy.
Su Qingqing raised an eyebrow, picked up Li Xiaoliu's ears and walked out.
"There are many rooms in this courtyard. Senior sister will help you choose carefully."
"It hurts! It hurts! It hurts! Senior sister, you have your choice, don't pick my ears..."
"Let you bully my junior sister!"
"I...I was just joking. As a senior brother, how can I compete with my junior sister?"
"..."
After watching the two of them go away, Xiang Shenfu chuckled lightly and turned around to the small spiritual pond behind the house.
The water in the pool was clear, and the spiritual energy was steaming in the clouds. Xiang Chu took off his coat and stepped into it.
The cold touch spread along the skin to the whole body, making Xiang Shu's mind become calm, and thoughts came to his mind one after another.
The sword turns into snow...
Xiang Yu's eyes darkened slightly, and the memory of killing eight people in a snowstorm gradually became clear in his consciousness.
This is not the first time she has used her sword to turn snow.
The last time was when the Demon Sect was in seclusion during the Wanjian Sect in Dongzhou. She sneaked into the Demon Sect's stronghold and the Demon Fetus lost control for the first time, causing a blizzard to massacre the city.
After many years, she used this move again. It had the same power, but was fundamentally different.
The demon fetus was extremely dark and cold. The last time she used the power of the demon fetus to freeze the void, causing snowflakes to roll in wildly. In addition, she lost control of her mind and her sword intent went riot. By coincidence, it merged into the snowflakes.
, to achieve such results.
But this time, she used her sword intent to cut off the fire intent in the void. The fire intention disappears, the water turns into ice, and then is shattered into snow by the sword intention. When the wind blows, it becomes a killing move...
Xiang Shu gradually understood the principle, and the corners of his lips unconsciously curved.
This trick came about by coincidence, and now that she created it by herself, it should have a name, Jian Xue.
Thinking of this, Xiang Shu suddenly felt that the circulation of Zhen Yuan suddenly accelerated, and the vortex of spiritual energy stirred the water in the pool, making a splashing sound.
About to break through?
Her eyes condensed, and she immediately abandoned her distracting thoughts and entered meditation. Unexpectedly, her true energy turned twice in the middle of the meridians, and then broke through the bottleneck, and a slight sound of breakthrough sounded in her body.
In the late stage of Nascent Soul, he could break through so easily.
Xiang Shu opened his eyes and briefly sensed his Dantian. He saw that the true energy was stable and there was no feeling of emptiness.
This breakthrough speed is a bit too fast.
Xiang Shu was slightly surprised, then thought about it for a while, but felt that the repeated breakthroughs were reasonable.
She had taken so much red fruit, and there was a lot of medicinal power hidden in her body.
Now, as soon as he fights, the power of the medicine is immediately stimulated. This time he is enlightened, his inner mind is enlightened, and he has the opportunity to make a breakthrough.
"The late Nascent Soul stage. The next step is the out-of-body stage..."
He leaned back towards the pond and leaned against the edge of the pool again, a look of thought flashing across his face.
She is no longer the Wu Xia Amon she used to be, and she has an understanding of all major realms of cultivation.
When the Nascent Soul reaches the stage of leaving the orifice, the key to breakthrough lies in the Nascent Soul locking the orifice.
By opening the aperture between the eyebrows, the Nascent Soul can leave the sea of consciousness and move freely, and then merge with the soul and transform into the Yuanshen.
The soul is one of the keys to breaking through the divine transformation stage.
However, the aperture between the eyebrows is one of the dead points in the sea of consciousness. If one of them is not good, it may destroy the acupoint and the Yuanying together, ruining the path of cultivation.
There are many sect records on the method of breaking the aperture between the eyebrows, but the methods of sword cultivation are very similar. They all use sword intent to tear the aperture between the eyebrows, and then after several expansions, a channel is opened for the Nascent Soul to enter and exit freely.
To achieve this step, the control of the sword intention must be at least subtle. Otherwise, if the sword intention is slightly out of control, the consequences will be disastrous.
As Xiang Shu thought carefully, time passed unknowingly...
A night of silence.
The next morning, Xiang Shuan came out of Lingchi after finishing his practice and put on a new set of clothes. He opened the door and saw Li Xiaoliu sitting on the doorstep.
When Li Xiaoliu saw Xiang Shu, he stood up immediately and ran over and asked, "Little junior sister, it's still early and the sword tower hasn't opened yet. How about we go for a walk outside?"
Xiang Shu didn't comment, looked past Li Xiaoliu, glanced behind him, and asked, "Where is Fourth Senior Sister?"
"Fourth Senior Sister went there yesterday and hasn't come back yet."
Li Xiaoliu pointed to the street behind the courtyard, "There's a new tavern opened there. It's a remote place, but there are a lot of customers. The drinks must be good. Fourth Senior Sister likes wine the most, maybe it's there?"
Xiang Shu frowned slightly, "You didn't come home all night?"
"Little Junior Sister, you can rest assured. With Fourth Senior Sister's cultivation, there are only a handful of people in this sword city who can give her a hard time."
Li Xiaoliu smiled to comfort him, but there was no smile in his eyes, instead there was a hint of worry.
Xiang Shen looked at him deeply, then remained silent for a moment, and said, "Yesterday, I saw something was wrong with Fourth Senior Sister. Maybe she was revisiting her old place and reminded her of some sad things."
As soon as these words came out, Li Xiaoliu's eyes suddenly lit up: "So you discovered it too? Let's go find her quickly!"
Xiang Shu nodded: "After you find Senior Sister, don't say anything."
"I know." Li Xiaoliu nodded.
Xiang Shu turned around and left without saying a word.
Li Xiaoliu was stunned for a moment and immediately chased after him.
"That's not right, little junior sister, I am the senior brother, I should be the one to say what you said..."
There was only one street between the tavern and Sumeng Courtyard. Xiang and Shen took two steps and arrived in front of the door.
"Luoji Tavern. This
Could it be that the owner of the tavern is named Luo? "
Li Xiaoliu muttered something and stepped into the store door.
Xiang Shu's gaze lingered on the plaque for a moment, then he quickly retracted his gaze and followed in.
The sword tower was not open yet and it was a busy time in the tavern. The two floors were full of people and it was quite noisy.
There are many people here, and it would be offensive to release your spiritual consciousness to search.
Xiang Shu and Li Xiaoliu could only split up and search with their naked eyes.
A moment later, Xiang Shu found Su Qingqing's back by the window on the second floor. But after seeing the two people sharing the table with her, their eyes suddenly became strange.
"Junior sister is here?"
Su Qingqing sensed something and looked over with drunken eyes. A smile suddenly appeared on her face, and she waved and said:
"Come here quickly, I will introduce you to two senior brothers."
Before Xiang Shen could speak, Su Qingqing pulled him aside and sat down.
Su Qingqing pointed at the smiling young man opposite and said, "This is the true successor of Yuanjianmai, Li Changting. You know Yuanjianmai, right? It's the third...well, in short, it's a good deputy swordmai."
Xiang Shen listened silently and glanced at the wine bottles beside Su Qingqing's table. There were only two or three bottles.
Just this little bit of wine made senior sister so drunk?
I'm afraid that if wine doesn't intoxicate people, people will become intoxicated themselves.
Su Qingqing was still talking, she pointed to Xiang Jianjue on the side and said: "This guy's background is even more remarkable..."
"Fourth Senior Sister, you are drunk."
Xiang Shen interrupted, Su Qingqing immediately stopped talking to Xiang Jianjue and said with her head held high: "Senior sister is not drunk! Call me senior brother quickly, don't lose etiquette."
Xiang Shu looked up at Li Changting who had a smile on his face, and then looked at Xiang Jian Jue with a dull expression on his side. He sighed softly in his heart and was about to speak when Li Xiaoliu rushed over at this moment.
"Little Junior Sister, you have found someone, why don't you even know to acknowledge me?"
Li Xiaoliu walked to the table and saw clearly the faces of the two people at the table. He recognized them and immediately clasped his fists and said, "Li Xiaoliu, I have met Senior Brother Li and Senior Brother Xiang."
"Junior Brother Li, you don't have to be polite. We are still in the same family, sit down and sit down."
Li Changting casually took out a wine glass and placed it in front of Li Xiaoliu. Then he looked at Xiang Shu, hesitated, took out another one and placed it in front of Xiang Shu, filling both of them.
"The wine here is brewed by an old friend of mine in Dongzhou. It's very good."
"Wine from Dongzhou?"
Li Xiaoliu's eyes lit up, he picked it up and took a sip. He nodded and said, "It really has a unique flavor. No wonder Senior Sister drank it all night and didn't go back."
"What? It's been all night?"
Su Qingqing opened her eyes slightly, "Why do I feel like it's only been a while, and I still have to go back and make food for my junior sister..."
Xiang Shen looked helpless when he heard this, picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
Well, it still feels familiar.
Xiang Shen's lips curled up slightly, Luo Hai's ability to make wine has become more and more sophisticated in recent years.
It's a pity that the eldest brother is still asleep and has no chance to taste it.
