But what is unexpected is that Lu Li's retreat lasted for more than five months. It was not until early March of the following year that he came out of the retreat room.
At this time, Lu Li's aura was a bit more mysterious than before.
"Hey, it's a pity that there are not enough spiritual stones. Otherwise, it is not impossible to break through to the early stage." Lu Li stood in the room, sighed with some unfinished thoughts, and then walked towards the corridor outside...
After five months of seclusion, he almost exhausted all the spiritual stones in his body, including more than 12 million low-grade spiritual stones and 20,000 medium-grade spiritual stones. He finally made a breakthrough from the initial entry level to the early stage of success.
Now, we are only one step away from Dacheng, but we are so short of a few spiritual stones that we can only stop temporarily.
After this retreat, he felt more and more that the effects of low-grade spiritual stones were not very good. The essence extracted from a hundred low-grade spiritual stones could not be compared with one medium-grade spiritual stone.
However, no matter what, he still made a breakthrough from entry level to a minor success in just five months. For most people, this is absolutely unimaginable.
You must know that this is a breakthrough at the golden elixir level. It does not require spiritual stone resources alone. It also requires a lot of time to refine.
After a cool breeze blew in the corridor for a while, Lu Li flew down from the attic.
Next to the pond in the inner courtyard, a little girl wearing a floral skirt and a bun was cleaning the verandah. Seeing Lu Li appear, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, then dragged the broom to Lu Li and said, "Greetings to the elder." "
Sure enough, a man relies on his clothes and a horse relies on his saddle. The child who was so rustic before and couldn't tell the difference between male and female is now dressed up, which adds a bit of ethereal air.
Lu Li smiled faintly, "What, you don't need to practice? How come you still have time to do these trivial things?"
"Trivial matters? Did the elder say sweeping the floor?"
"What do you think?"
"Oh, this is my mission. I have to do it every day. Otherwise, I'm afraid, elder, you'll say I'm wasting food and drive me down the mountain." Han Feiyan said matter-of-factly.
Lu Li was immediately amused, "You little girl, you have so many little thoughts in one day. Okay, this yard is not dirty and there is no need to clean it every day. From now on, you can clean it once a month and spend the rest of your time on cultivation." Enough."
"Really!" Han Feiyan was immediately delighted, "Sir, you won't lie to me and find a reason to drive me down the mountain, right?"
Lu Li dumbfounded and rubbed Han Feiyan's head, "Why did I lie to you? Besides, I want to drive you down the mountain. Do you need a reason?"
"Oh, yes, Feiyan, thank you, elder!" Han Feiyan immediately became happy after hearing this.
Seeing this, Lu Li shook his head and prepared to leave.
But at this moment, Han Feiyan seemed to remember something and quickly chased after her with a big broom, "Sir Elder, I remembered that Manager Jin came to see you several times. I'm afraid he has something to do with you. If you have time, , remember to ask..."
Gold ingot?
Lu Li nodded, "I understand."
After saying that, he left without looking back.
...
There really isn't much to do in Cuizhu Peak.
Jin Yuanbao said he was in charge, but in fact he was having a good time one day. When he got bored, he went to the Transmission Building to chat with Zhao Pingan. After chatting, he meditated on the big stone at the top of the stone steps.
Why do you want to meditate here? The main reason is that the view here is better. If someone comes to find Lu Li, he can find it immediately and go to report it, proving that his existence still has some value.
Therefore, when Lu Li walked out of the mansion, he spotted Lu Li immediately, stood up decisively, ran towards Lu Li, and saluted with a smile: "My lord, you are finally out of seclusion. ..”
"I heard that you came to see me, what's the matter?" Lu Li looked at Jin Yuanbao with a flattering look on his face and asked straight to the point.
"Oh, that's the case. There was news from Qingning Peak that the elder should come over after you leave seclusion. I saw that he was not in a hurry, so I didn't disturb you in seclusion..."
"Qingning Peak?"
Lu Li pondered for a moment and said, "I understand." Then he stood up and headed south.
"Hey, I don't know when I will be as handsome as him?" Seeing Lu Li walking in the air, Jin Yuanbao's fat face could not help but show envy and yearning.
...
Qingning Peak.
The headmaster of Chu University has been very upset recently. He is almost out of breath under the weight of trivial matters. Moreover, he always feels that there is going to be a big problem in this world, but as the headmaster of Yuxu Palace, he seems to be very worried. It's powerlessness.
Today, he specially came to Ouyang Riyao to drink tea and chat with him, but unfortunately, his senior brother seemed to be a bit dishonest and kept talking to him about serious matters, leaving him speechless...
Just when he looked bored, he suddenly found a young man in white walking up the path at the foot of the mountain. His eyes suddenly lit up, and he directly interrupted Ouyang Riyao, who was still chattering:
"Senior brother, look, that kid seems to be about to reach the early stages of adulthood. Is he a human?"
Ouyang Riyao was stunned, and looked down the mountain, and suddenly hissed, "This... I remember, it was only about a year before he broke through the golden elixir, right?"
Chu Qingxuan said: "Well, that's right. I remember it very clearly. There are still a few days left in the year..."
"This boy is not simple. I have never heard of someone who breaks through more than one small stage in a year. Even if he has enough resources, his refining speed cannot keep up. Could it be that he is not practicing in my Yuxu Palace? 'The Sutra of Wuwei'...?" Ouyang Riyao said suspiciously.
"It's hard to say this. After all, he is just starting out as an artist..."
"..."
While the two were talking, Lu Li also walked up from the bottom of the mountain.
He could actually fly up, but it would be a bit impolite to do so. Therefore, every time he came to see Chu Qingxuan, he would always land at the foot of Pavilion Mountain and then walk up.
"I've met the headmaster, the great elder..."
Lu Li was a little surprised that Ouyang Riyao was also here.
"Haha, you kid can do it. You have been in seclusion for such a long time. You are completely deaf to what is happening outside the window." Chu Qingxuan smiled half-jokingly and greeted, "Come, come and sit."
Lu Li smiled awkwardly and sat down around the tea table in the center of the pavilion, "I heard that the headmaster is looking for me?"
Chu Qingxuan nodded, "Didn't Liuyun Mansion and his party finish last time? I was going to give my contribution to you, but you didn't know that you just went into seclusion."
When he heard that it was about contribution, Lu Li immediately became interested. He was penniless now, but he needed a contribution so much, but he couldn't ask for it directly. He said with a twinkle in his eye:
"Master, you are so polite. If you hadn't said anything, I would have almost forgotten about it. I wonder how much contribution I should receive after Master calculated it?"
