Outside the secret palace.
In front of a large purple jade table, senior sister Xue Bingxuan was dealing with general affairs, her bright beautiful eyes full of concentration. There were piles of jade slips and books on the table, and several inlaid figures on the lapis lazuli lampstand. Ten fist-sized luminous pearls are as bright as day within ten feet.
The best spices are burning in the copper crane incense burner in the corner. The smoke is swirling up, and the timeless aroma fills the space.
After a while, she gently put down the volume in her hand, took the glazed warm jade cup next to her, and drank the lukewarm Yunzhi Aesculata and Ginseng Soup in small sips.
"At this time, junior brother should have successfully broken through..."
Xue Bingxuan thought secretly, and her eyes drifted towards the closed palace door not far away. The prohibition formation at the door was fully opened, and countless talismans were flickering on the thick light curtain. Even if it was as strong as her own cultivation, If the attacker wants to force his way in, it will be difficult for him to do so in a short period of time.
Yesterday, Xue Bingxuan opened the formation and went in. Seeing that Qin Muling was at the critical moment of breaking through the barrier, she didn't bother, put down some pills and left.
At this moment, a petite inner disciple in a goose-yellow dress came in. After bowing, he informed: "Senior Sister, the owner of the merchant is already waiting in the side hall."
Xue Bingxuan frowned slightly, turned to look at the palace door, and said displeasedly: "How can I have time to pay attention to them now? Forget it, let them wait for a while."
"Uh...ok."
Seeing that the elder sister's face was not good-looking, the young girl swallowed her words and bowed silently before retreating. Thinking that there were more than a dozen distinguished guests from sects and aristocratic families waiting to receive her, this matter was really troublesome.
Xue Bingxuan stood up and walked back and forth a few times. She had already made up her mind. The breakthrough of her junior brother in seclusion was a top priority and she had to guard it personally. It would be okay to put aside other things.
In the secret palace.
Qin Muling silently adapted to the power of the new realm. At this moment, the mysterious seeds in the depths of the sea of consciousness swirled lightly, and layers of obscure and deep ripples rippled. Soon, more spiritual energy essence surged from the depths of the void. They swarmed in like a torrent and were absorbed by the mysterious seed.
After a few breaths, dots of chaotic crystal light emerged from the inside of the seed and merged into Qin Muling's soul body.
The magic power that had calmed down in the body suddenly became violent, and the majestic pressure steadily increased. The sudden increase in spiritual power essence pushed Qin Muling's cultivation level to rise again, and soon broke through the second level of the Enlightenment Realm, and then another In the third level, Kankan slowly stopped when he reached the peak of the third level.
The Enlightenment Realm is also divided into nine minor realms. For ordinary monks, they have to hone their magic power and make breakthroughs step by step. They can't reach the perfect level in just a few decades. Even if they are recognized as geniuses, they don't have the resources, skills, and famous teachers. Even if there is no shortage, it will take several years.
However, with the help of this mysterious innate Hongmeng spiritual root, Qin Muling feels that the growth rate of his cultivation can completely crush all opponents. Perhaps it is not a delusion to catch up with the progress of his senior sister in the future.
Taking a long breath, Qin Muling opened her eyes and stood up slowly. This retreat took several days. The senior sister was protecting him outside, so she must have been a little impatient.
Inside the closed palace door was a table, several white jade pill bottles, and an exquisite sandalwood box placed on it. It was obviously sent in by the senior sister and placed here.
Qin Muling felt warm in his heart. Although it had not been long since he entered Yunmeng Heavenly Palace, the two senior sisters really had nothing to say about him. They arranged everything meticulously and took care of him like a carefree adult. Just like children, they basically have nothing to worry about.
I have to admit that with two beautiful and capable senior sisters, my future life will indeed not be ordinary happiness.
Senior sister, I don’t want to work hard anymore...
With a self-deprecating smile, Qin Muling opened the sandalwood box. Inside was a set of brand-new snow-white clothes that were glowing with cloud light. The familiar faint fragrance showed that this was another top-notch product that the third senior sister had personally refined and had tried on herself. Spiritual weapon.
Qin Muling didn't show any pretense and immediately took it out and put it on. After learning the news that she had broken through the realm, Qi Yalan would definitely come to visit. As long as he wears the clothes she made by herself, she will naturally be happy and satisfied.
After spending these days together, Qin Muling also gradually understood the temperament of this arrogant third senior sister. On the surface, she was a little cold and indifferent to her, but secretly she cared a lot about her.
One time, Qin Muling went to Shadow Moon Peak to learn how to wield a sword from Qi Yalan. Before leaving, he forgot to change his clothes and still wore the robes and robes issued by the elders of the Refining Hall. This third senior sister kept her mouth shut, but was merciless when giving instructions. She drilled him hard for three hours and didn't stop until he was exhausted.
Since then, Qin Muling, who had learned her lesson, only wore the clothes given by the third senior sister. This made her turn her anger into joy and no longer punish him publicly and privately.
After finishing cleaning up, Qin Muling closed the formation restriction sequence and opened the palace door.
Xue Bingxuan came in with a gust of fragrant wind, held his shoulders, and looked up and down: "How is it? Is the realm stable?"
"Fortunately, luckily I did not disgrace my life."
Qin Muling smiled, letting go and letting her explore the state of her body.
"Well, the aura is extremely pure, the Dao foundation is perfect, not bad, not bad, and the total amount of mana you have, little junior brother, is much higher than that of the senior sisters at the same level..."
Xue Bingxuan couldn't hide her joy. Qin Muling's magic power was so pure and condensed that even the core disciples who were one level above him were inferior. The total amount of magic power was more than thirty times higher than that of disciples of the same level. , even when I was in the stage of enlightenment, my strength was not so exaggerated.
If this little junior brother improves to one or two realms in the future, what kind of monster will his performance be? Just thinking about it made her heart swell.
"Master should know about my breakthrough in seclusion, right?" Qin Muling asked.
When talking about business, Xue Bingxuan stopped her smile and said in a serious voice:
"That's right, and the master's incarnation came over yesterday, brought you some things, and conveyed the instructions of the sect's supreme elders..."
As she said that, Xue Bingxuan raised her hand slightly, and seven bright streams of light that exuded a terrifying pressure flew out of her body, hovered briefly, and merged into Qin Muling's body.
There are three jade charms about a foot long, an ancient octagonal bronze mirror, an orb with clear water waves, a silver plate with clear light and hazy light, and a small and exquisite copper bell.
"These are the protective treasures given to you by Master,"
Xue Bingxuan explained: "The jade talismans and secret treasures are personally refined by several Supreme Elders. They can activate the protector on their own at critical moments and have the power to protect your life and ensure your safety."
"Master is interested."
Qin Muling sighed sincerely. With these life-saving trump cards, his safety will undoubtedly be greatly guaranteed in the future. Even if he travels alone, he doesn't need to be too nervous.
Xue Bingxuan nodded and continued: "According to the instructions of the Supreme Elders, from now on, little junior brother, you no longer need to hide your identity and can walk freely within the sect. Of course, if you want to leave the sect and go out for training, we still have to accompany you. That’s all.”
"Are they... planning to temper me?"
Qin Muling thought for a while and realized that the principle of living in sorrow and dying in happiness is also applicable in this grand and unfamiliar time and space.
Even if you are a genius, if you stay in an environment that is too comfortable and are protected like a flower in a greenhouse, it may not be a good thing in the long run.
On the contrary, putting yourself in moderate danger at all times can stimulate your Taoist heart that dare not slack off, can always keep walking on thin ice, work bravely and diligently, and quickly improve your cultivation.
"It would be great if you could understand Master's good intentions."
Xue Bingxuan said with a smile, "Junior Brother has a clear mind and can tell the truth at once, which saves him a lot of talking."
