Chapter 348: Touching the Heartstrings
Li Xiuyuan returned home and told Concubine Leng about the underworld, and the couple were silent for a long time before Concubine Leng spoke.
"Xiuyuan, it seems that you have to work hard to become holy, otherwise the entire Middle Thousand Worlds will be destroyed. ”
"I know that's the case, I'm going to work hard to become a saint, and Manjushri and Qingdai are still waiting for me to reunite them. However, putting aside the question of whether or not you can be sanctified, once you are sanctified, within a month, you will have to leave the Middle Thousand Worlds and go to the Great Thousand Worlds. ”
The most uncomfortable place for Li Xiuyuan is that he went to the Great Thousand World, so he can't return to the Middle Thousand World at will.
Otherwise, the Middle Thousand Worlds will be distorted, and I am afraid that the Heavenly Dao of the Great Thousand Worlds will not allow it.
Above the saints, there are people.
It doesn't have to be the Heavenly Dao Hongjun Ancestor, there may be other people between the Heavenly Dao and the saints.
The Middle Thousand World is different from the Small Three Thousand Worlds, even if Li Xiuyuan goes to the Little Three Thousand Worlds, it will not have any impact.
However, if he is sanctified, it will be different if he enters the Middle Thousand Worlds.
This is also the reason that when he and Rulai were working at that time, the real body of the guide did not come, and the Tongtian Sect Master only let go of one hand.
It's not that they don't dare, it's that they can't.
If a saint forcibly breaks into the Middle Thousand Worlds, he will have a huge impact on the Middle Thousand Worlds, and he may be in trouble as well.
But it's not there yet, so there's no need to worry about that.
Concubine Leng's heart moved, and she immediately understood Li Xiuyuan's concerns.
While she is happy, she is also a little uncomfortable, and she may be separated from Li Xiuyuan.
"Don't think so, Xiuyuan, you have gone all the way, from an unserious monk in Lingyin Temple, to now you have surpassed the cultivation of Rulai. All this, with its own providence in the dark, has been arranged. If you are a saint, you will be controlled by heaven, and you will not be able to come back. So, what about the way of heaven directly? Everything in the future, no matter which world, is up to you, isn't it better?"
When Concubine Leng said this, Li Xiuyuan opened his mouth and found that he didn't know what to say.
My mother, his wife still thinks like this?
I never thought that Concubine Leng could still say this, and I wanted him to be the way of heaven.
If it weren't for his wife, Li Xiuyuan would definitely think that she was crazy and wanted to be the master.
"Concubine, just tell me about it, don't tell anyone outside, and don't mention it to your sister, the main thing is ...... It's too arrogant, it's too embarrassing. Li Xiuyuan almost wanted to stroke his forehead.
Who knew that Concubine Leng looked serious, "Xiuyuan, I didn't joke with you, when we can't change the rules, we will put the rules on top ourselves." When you were a monk of Jigong, did you think that one day you would be able to hit Lingshan and kill Rulai?
In this way, it seems that he really didn't think about it at the beginning.
But it's hard to think of sanctification, and isn't it even harder to be above the saints?
"Okay, concubine, I don't want to think so much about it yet, I'm going to retreat, consolidate my cultivation, and then go to other worlds to see if I can find some opportunities. I have a hunch that my biggest problem is not my cultivation, but my state of mind. My state of mind has improved too quickly because of my cultivation, and it is not stable enough. Li Xiuyuan suddenly said solemnly.
When it comes to his current cultivation, he is still very clear about his own shortcomings.
Concubine Leng smiled, but she agreed with Li Xiuyuan's approach.
"Okay, you go to retreat, I'll take good care of myself, I'm also an immortal myself, I'll be fine. Concubine Leng replied.
The two of them got tired of it for a while, and then Li Xiuyuan found a place to retreat.
He didn't retreat in the Qiankun Order, and the aura of the Qiankun Order was not enough for Li Xiuyuan to cultivate, so Li Xiuyuan planned to go to Lingshan.
Now Lingshan is temporarily managed by Guanyin Bodhisattva, but more rights are in charge of the Jade Emperor.
In fact, this is fine, it can be a lot less troublesome.
In the following days, Li Xiuyuan chose Lingshan to retreat, and Long Ao naturally joined him.
And Concubine Leng went to the small world of Our Lady of Jinling.
Spring goes to autumn, time passes little by little, and in the blink of an eye, ninety years have passed, and there are only ten years left before the maximum amount that the gap in the underworld can bear.
On this day, Concubine Leng sat on a rocking chair, looking at the scenery outside, nibbling on the spirit fruit, and living a very comfortable life.
The only fly in the ointment is her belly, ninety years have passed, and it is still only slightly bulging, just like a mortal woman for three months, not at all like a belly for many years.
Li Xiuyuan also knew that Concubine Leng would not be born so quickly, so he would rest assured that he would go to retreat.
"Xiuyuan, it's only been ten years, haven't you come out yet?" Concubine Leng muttered.
Suddenly, a female voice came from behind her, "Concubine, you are in a daze again." ”
"Sister, you're here, where's your brother-in-law?" Concubine Leng smiled brightly, "Are you calling to farm again?"
Our Lady of Jin Ling covered her lips and smiled, her eyes were tender, "That's not it, I'll let him plant some rice, anyway, we have hobbies now, and the things we grow are delicious." After the autumn harvest, I will bring you some and give your baby some to eat when the time comes. ”
As she spoke, Our Lady of Jin Ling reached out and touched Concubine Leng's belly.
"Speaking of which, sister, I really admire this kid in my family, who has been in my stomach for so long, and still refuses to come out. I don't know what the situation is, but when Xiu Yuan left, he said that the child was very healthy, and I had to wait. Concubine Leng touched her stomach worriedly.
"Don't worry, you must know that your husband is already the top powerhouse, and your children may be born extraordinary. So, wait for him to stay a little longer. Our Lady of the Golden Spirit comforted, and then restrained her smile, "Concubine, Xiu Yuan hasn't come back yet, but the time is approaching, can he rush back before that day comes?" ”
Concubine Leng also fell silent, she was also worried about whether she could see Li Xiuyuan, and she was also afraid that this day would come.
However, there are still ten years to go, so it should be soon, right?
"Sister, I believe in him, he will be able to come back before then, let's wait. Concubine Leng took the hand of the Holy Mother of Jin Ling and said.
Our Lady of Jin Ling had no choice but to nod, she also knew that Li Xiuyuan was in no hurry when he came back.
The two sisters talked about something else, and the Lady of the Golden Spirit left.
After the Holy Mother of Jin Ling left, Concubine Leng looked in the direction of Lingshan, looked lonely, and was silent for a long time.
And Li Xiuyuan, who was concerned by all the Great Luo Jin Immortals, was sitting cross-legged in an ordinary cave in Lingshan at this time.
Next to Li Xiuyuan, there was Long Ao who was coiled into a long dragon.
"Whew!" Li Xiuyuan let out a breath and opened his eyes.
Hearing Li Xiuyuan's movements, Long Ao also opened his eyes and looked at him, "How is it?"
"My cultivation is already very stable, but there is still a long distance from the saint, and I still haven't touched that barrier, and I don't know what to do. Also, the mood seems to have improved a lot, but it's still not enough. Li Xiuyuan looked frustrated.
Before, he thought that he would be able to achieve the desired effect in fifty years, but now, after so many ninety years, he still has not achieved it.
Seeing that the time was slowly approaching, only ten years, he knew that he could not stay here any longer.
It seems that for the sake of today, I can only go to other worlds to see how to improve my state of mind.
"Are we leaving, then?" Long Ao's figure flashed and turned back into a human body.
"Well, let's go. Li Xiuyuan stood up and left the cave with Long Ao.
As soon as he stepped out of the cave, Li Xiuyuan flew into the sky of the mountain, overlooking everything in the world from top to bottom.
Suddenly, he felt a slight change in his state of mind.
Mountains and rivers are a promise, stepping all over Qianmo, and there is no floating energy geometry.
Seeing the prosperity of the world fall, everything has gone to death.
"Long Ao, go, follow me to the mortal world, and watch a person die of old age, sickness and death. Li Xiuyuan suddenly moved, and flew down with Long Ao.
Long Ao didn't have time to react at all, and only passively left a phantom in the air.
"Aren't you going back to see Sister Concubine, she still has your baby in her belly. Long Ao hurriedly pulled Li Xiuyuan.
At this speed, the dragon's life is almost guaranteed.
"The child is still early, not born so soon, I have to hurry up and see if I can break through my state of mind. Cultivating here, when the time comes, through the Heavens and Ten Thousand Realms Group, it should be able to improve a lot. Li Xiuyuan said, "Although I haven't joined the group all these years, my foundation is still there." ”
Hearing Li Xiuyuan say this, Long Ao couldn't refute it.
He could actually see that Li Xiuyuan didn't want Concubine Leng and didn't want to see their children.
It's just that now there is something more important to do.
The safety of the entire Middle Thousand Worlds is in the hands of Li Xiuyuan, and he can only give up his small family for everyone.
Soon, Li Xiuyuan fell outside a thatched house, and he cast a spell on himself to hide his and Long Ao's bodies.
The thatched hut resounded with the heart-rending screams of a woman and the voice of a woman encouraging her.
And the man outside the thatched house, his legs and trousers rolled up, he was sweating profusely, and he was anxious to turn around the door, looking nervous.
"Wow, wow, wow!" the baby's cry sounded, the child was born, and the man breathed a sigh of relief.
With the croaking of the child to the ground, the whole thatched house seems to be surging with a breath of happiness.
Li Xiuyuan didn't go to see what the situation was inside the hut, but the joy on the man's face was enough to affect him.
In the face of the arrival of a new life, the man's joy is beyond words.
The door opened, and a lady walked out with a swaddling baby.
"Born, born, a big fat boy, he will be like you in the future, standing up to the sky. ”
"Thank you. The man's eyes were red with excitement, a tear fell, and he rushed into the room with the child in his arms.
At this moment, Li Xiuyuan's heartstrings were touched.
With a flick of his wrist, he caught the man's tears.
