After Taojun Zhongtai pointed out a courtyard for Ji Qingling to prepare, he went directly to the inner gate to build the foundation. No one was disturbed here.
Because Shen Ru came to ask his teacher about puppetry techniques.
Ji Qingling and Ji Zuo, one of whom had not yet learned and the other who could not learn, both withdrew.
"Brother Ji Zuo, is Senior Sister Shen Ru good at puppeteering?" Ji Qingling asked while playing with the puppets in his hands.
Ji Zuo nodded, "Master said that Shen Ru is more talented than himself, and his future achievements will be determined by him."
Now it was Ji Qingling's turn to be surprised, "The evaluation is so high?"
"You are indeed very talented." Ji Zuo's tone was a little sour.
Ji Qingling felt that this topic could be stopped. After all, there was someone here who had a hard time becoming a puppet master but could not learn from it~
"By the way, Brother Ji Zuo, did I hear Senior Sister Shen say that you ate something wrong and suddenly wanted to build a foundation?"
Ji Zuo stopped and said, "Xiao Qingling, they say you are smart, but I don't see it at all!"
Just point at one person’s scars and keep exposing them?
"Hehe~hehe~"
Today is indeed not a suitable day for chatting.
Now that Lord Chongtai Taoist said that he could prepare to build the foundation, she naturally had to start preparations.
Ji Zuo's words about the courtyard at Sunset Peak are very clear. Once the foundation is established, it will become her exclusive courtyard. This is a benefit for direct disciples, and all of them have it.
There is actually nothing to pack at the outer door, almost everything is put in storage bags.
Most monks are like this. Every time you go out may be the last time you leave.
She has nothing to worry about when she leaves Toothless to Ji Hui. She will be out of seclusion in as soon as one month or as slowly as six months.
Ji Qingling himself did not expect that this retreat would take a full year to build the foundation.
When he entered seclusion, Ji Qingling discovered that his foundation building required much more spiritual energy than everyone thought.
The characteristic of the small sprout is that it is slow and long-lasting. It can help you refine your spiritual energy continuously, but it cannot provide Ji Qingling with huge spiritual power in a short period of time.
The process of foundation building begins with the constant tempering of the meridians and body, over and over again. This period requires a lot of spiritual support.
The huge vortex in the dantian is constantly absorbing Ji Qingling's spiritual power, like a greedy giant beast, constantly asking for it.
Ji Qingling began to work hard to absorb and refine the spiritual energy, and the little sprout didn't stop for a moment.
The spirit-boosting pill given by Taojun Chongtai came into play at this time, filling the gap, and the situation began to stabilize slowly.
The spirit-boosting pills were quickly used up. Taojun Chongtai gave her enough, and she was quite confident that she wouldn't need them.
When the elixirs ran out, she began to use soul-replenishing talismans to make up for the shortage, one by one. Fortunately, she saved a lot. These soul-replenishing talismans also supported her for a long time.
When the spirit-replenishing talisman was used up, Ji Qingling took out all the spirit stones in the storage bag. This was the last supply. If he didn't end this foundation building, he would fail.
Fortunately, the vortex began to slow down. When the last spiritual stone was shining, Ji Qingling's own spiritual energy absorbed and the full supply of the little sprouts, the riot in the dantian began to gradually calm down.
"father!"
Just then Ji Qingling saw Ji Linhai. He was huddled up against the wall with a look of pain on his face. The injury in his dantian must have been tormenting him again.
Although he always tries to keep a smile and optimism in front of his family, the pain is real, and he will not stop getting close to you just because of your smile.
Looking at Ji Linhai groaning in pain in the corner, Ji Qingling also burst into tears. But there was nothing she could do. She wanted to go over and hug her father, but she couldn't move, couldn't move even half a step forward, and there was an invisible force pulling her further and further away.
"Dad! Dad~"
No matter how much she yelled, Ji Linhai didn't change at all, just sitting in the corner suffering alone.
An invisible force pulled her out of the house, and the next moment she appeared light and airy outside the courtyard. There was another person there!
That's Mo Sanniang!
Mo Sanniang stood outside the courtyard gate with her head lowered, like a child who had done something wrong.
She wiped her face roughly with her sleeves, and her lowered hands and clenched fists revealed her mood at the moment.
Ji Linhai couldn't use his spiritual consciousness, but Mo Sanniang could. She could clearly see everything that happened in the room. She saw Ji Linhai's pain, but she didn't enter the room.
She had to pretend not to know, so that Ji Linhai could still face her with a smile. If he knew that Mo Sanniang already knew, it would only make him more painful.
Maybe he already knows that as long as Mo Sanniang doesn't reveal it, he will keep persisting. They all have a glimmer of hope in their hearts - Qingmumen, maybe he can really wait until that day.
Ji Qingling's heart was pulled together. Her father and mother were insisting, and it was even more impossible for her to give up.
She must build a foundation, she must go to Zhongzhou, she must find the Qingmu Gate, and she must cure Ji Linhai!
With a bang, the vortex of spiritual energy in Ji Qingling's dantian suddenly dispersed.
She opened her eyes, and there was a bright light in her eyes.
Done!
Foundation building successful!
~
Time goes by, and it has been half a year since Ji Qingling successfully built the foundation.
She had to do too many things in the past six months, such as stabilizing her cultivation and formally becoming apprentices to Daojun Chongtai and Ji Zuo as her senior disciples.
The yard now belongs to her, and the deacon hall wanted to assign a handyman disciple to her, but Ji Qingling refused.
She didn't like strangers getting too close to her, and there was nothing to clean up in the yard. Without Lingzhi, Zhou Yan and Ji Hui divided her yard.
Both of them studied alchemy, and half of them just planted some elixirs to make elixirs.
There is only one spiritual beast, Toothless, and it doesn't need anyone to take care of it at all. The little guy is cute and clean by himself, and no one can get close to it.
Ji Zuo gave her a set of defensive formations, which were set up in the courtyard, which was enough.
There are a few things she must do first.
For example, the flying magic weapon, the one that reaches the sky, has finally reached its full potential.
First she needed to find an open place to practice. Sunset Peak was huge, and the place she chose was very close to her yard.
She came very early, just in time for a sunrise.
Ji Qingling thought that she was already familiar with Tongtian, and it must be easy to control it.
'Pa~'
'Pa~'
…
In the end, Ji Qingling didn't know how many times he fell. He finally stood up, but the speed that was sometimes fast and sometimes slow made Ji Qingling fall again and again.
Why is it so funny when she sees others flying so coolly?
Every time she failed, she learned experience. From the first time she succeeded, Ji Qingling flew up with the Tongtian in her arms, and by the time she returned to the yard, she could sit on it safely.
After flying several times in the air, she really wanted to fly to find Ji Hui and Ji Qingyuan, but unfortunately Taiyi Sect did not allow foundation-building disciples to fly within the sect.
No matter how long it took, Ji Qingling finally learned to fly with a sword, or should I say fly with a pen?
