Chapter 509: Returning the Favor (Second Update!) ）

Xu Yinglong's words made Hongling fall into deep thought, this time he came to Tianhai to find Xu Yinglong to apprentice on a whim, and he didn't think too much about it in advance. The main reason is that she learned that Xu Yinglong seems to be serving in the army now, and Fang An, Cai Yong and others also have military backgrounds and do not belong to any sect. Therefore, Hongling thought of cultivating with Xu Yinglong, just like Fang An and the others.

However, what Hongling didn't expect was that there was such a thing as a self-chasing door, that is to say, if he worshipped Xu Yinglong as a teacher and followed him to learn martial arts, then he must dissociate himself from the empty gate, and he could no longer call himself a disciple of the empty door in the future.

Although the Empty Gate is now just an empty shell, there is nothing but her, the only disciple, and there is not even a place for a sect, wherever she Xu Hongling goes, there is the mountain gate of the Empty Gate. But after all, it was her own sect, her grandfather and her mother were all people of the empty gate, and of course she was too, although it had completely declined, but if she wanted to completely cut off the relationship with the empty gate, Hongling still couldn't do it.

After all, people are emotional animals, although the pros and cons are obvious, but there are always some people who will not give up their principles because of interests. Although there must be many benefits to following Xu Yinglong's cultivation, this can be well verified from the women in the house. When Hongling Ji saw those women for the first time, they were all weak women ~ and they were all weak women, and now how long has it been, and the powerful momentum on their bodies shocked him. If he worships under Xu Yinglong's door, his progress will not be much worse than them. It won't be long before you become a real master.

But Hongling himself knew that it would be impossible to get out of the empty door by himself. After so many years, he has always regarded himself as an empty disciple. How can you change the doorway. The reason why he proposed to worship Xu Yinglong as a teacher before was because he didn't know that there was such a rule, otherwise he wouldn't have opened that mouth if he killed her.

Hongling's choice is very firm, that is, she is unwilling to give up her identity as the master of the empty sect, if she has to choose between the empty door and Xu Yinglong's disciples, she would rather be the master of a declining sect for the rest of her life.

Hongling's choice was both expected by Xu Yinglong and unexpected by Xu Yinglong. Hongling's refusal to give up the identity of the empty door was expected by Xu Yinglong, after all, the style of robbing the rich and helping the poor and doing her own thing has been deeply rooted in her bones, and the habits she has cultivated over the years can not be changed. So Hongling's choice of Xu Yinglong is not strange at all. It's just that Xu Yinglong didn't expect Hongling to be so straightforward, and without even hesitation, she directly sued him, she still wanted to be her empty door master, and she wanted to be a thief for a lifetime!

Xu Yinglong didn't keep it, he knew that this was a woman with character, and if he kept it, not only would it not be effective, but it would make her feel that she was fake.

Out of appreciation for Hongling, Xu Yinglong directly took two bottles of pills and a book of cultivation exercises from the "house" and handed them to Hongling. Let her practice according to the above exercises with the pills. Although he couldn't take her as an apprentice, this didn't prevent him from teaching her some superficial kung fu.

Xu Yinglong's actions made Hongling both grateful and ashamed, she was the one who wanted to apprentice, so she ran thousands of miles to find Tianhai. Now she is still the one who doesn't want to apprentice, and she says it so simply. But instead of blaming, Xu Yinglong gave her the elixir and cultivation tips. The elixir Hongling in Xu Yinglong's hand knew it. Last time she was injured in Xichuan, Xu Yinglong also left her some pills. She knew the effect best. After taking those pills, not only were all his injuries healed. Even his cultivation has improved a lot.

Before, for her, the dark energy period was so unattainable. Because her grandfather has cultivated all his life, he is only in the middle stage of dark energy, and her mother is even worse, she has been trapped by love all her life, living in hatred, and as a result, she died early, and when she died, she was only in the late stage of Ming Jin, far inferior to her grandfather, so the dark energy period was already an unattainable goal for Hongling.

But since she met Xu Yinglong, she not only surpassed her mother in a very short period of time, but also reached her grandfather's peak cultivation not long ago. And what Hongling remembers the most is the pills that Xu Yinglong left her, she clearly remembered that there were only five pills left by Xu Yinglong at the beginning, and it was these five pills that made her jump directly from the early stage of dark energy to the middle stage of dark energy.

Now that Xu Yinglong gave her not only a lot more pills than before, but even one more that she didn't know, Hongling was surprised by Xu Yinglong's generosity. With so many pills, if they are on the black market, it will definitely be a windfall, judging by Hongling's experience in selling stolen goods for so many years, the value of these two bottles of pills alone will not be less than 2 billion Huaxia coins.

But Hongling knew better that the really valuable thing was not those pills at all, but the cultivation exercises. You must know that in the cultivation world, although the treasures of heaven and earth are rare, they are not nothing, and if you look carefully, you can still find them, after all, the earth is so big, there are still many places where humans have not set foot at present. But the cultivation method is different, those things are the key to cultivation, if you don't have the method, no matter how hard you try, you can't become a peerless master. At present, almost all the cultivation methods in the country are controlled by the major sects, and even the state departments have only mastered some low-level cultivation methods, so any step of cultivation is extremely precious to ordinary people.

Although Hongling has a cultivation method inherited from the Empty Empty Gate, due to the change of years, only one-third of the original Mind Method remains, which is also the main reason why the Empty Gate continues to decline and even almost perish. According to what my grandfather said when he was alive, the remaining mental method of the Empty Gate can be cultivated to the middle stage of dark energy at most. And now Hongling is already a little master in the middle stage of dark energy, that is to say, if she can't find a new cultivation method, Hongling will face the embarrassing situation of having no exercises to practice, which is one of the reasons why she suddenly proposed to worship Xu Yinglong as a teacher.

And Xu Yinglong's intentional move just solved Hongling's big trouble, which can be called a charcoal in the snow, so she gladly accepted Xu Yinglong's gift. Of course, Hongling was also surprised by Xu Yinglong's identity, who is he, is he really just a second-generation official? Where did he get so many super pills, and why was he so good to himself?

At the same time, Hongling was also calculating, if he took all of the pills, what would his cultivation reach, is it a god? Or is it super god-level?

But in any case, the harvest of this visit to Tianhai is satisfying. Although he failed to achieve the goal of apprenticeship, the substantive problem of learning art was easily solved. According to what Xu Yinglong said, the cultivation method he gave was extremely profound, and with her current level, I am afraid that she may not be able to cultivate to the end with the strength of a lifetime. In other words, for the time being, or even forever, she doesn't have to worry that she will stop cultivating because of her cultivation of the heart method, which makes Hongling very happy.

However, Xu Yinglong helped her so much, of course, Hongling couldn't help but express it. The kindness of receiving a drop of water should be reciprocated by a spring, and Xu Yinglong's kindness to her is not something that can be described by a drop of water, so Hongling took out a brocade box from the bag she was carrying, and then handed it to Xu Yinglong.

Xu Yinglong opened it and found that there were three items inside, a map made of animal fur, marked with some zigzag lines, and some signs that looked like mountains and rivers, which seemed to be a map, and the time should be a long time ago.

The second thing is a piece of paper, a very ordinary A4 paper, on which some modern place names are marked in a delicate font, which seems to have been made by Hongling himself, and should be a modern translation of that ancient map.

The last thing was a jade plaque, and as soon as he got it in his hand, Xu Yinglong found that it was not an ordinary jade plaque, but a special magic weapon. The reason why this magic weapon is special is because it is neither an offensive magic weapon nor a defensive initiation, but something similar to an identity recognizer, which is a bit mysterious, but it is actually equivalent to the ID card of modern society.

This kind of thing is very common in the Medicine King and the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, and it is generally distributed by the sect to the disciples of the sect to enter and exit the mountain gate. It's just that Xu Yinglong saw this thing for the first time on the earth, and he couldn't help but take a few more looks.

Although Hongling didn't say what these things were for, Xu Yinglong had already guessed it. Last time, Hongling had said that she had a treasure map about the treasure of the gods, and she had ventured there once before. At that time, Xu Yinglong showed that he was very interested there, and Hongling also promised to take him there when Xu Yinglong was free, these things should be the road map to that place, and the jade plate should be a token to enter the ruins or something.

Xu Yinglong was not polite, and put away the brocade box after saying thank you, these things are indeed very useful to him. If he was going to explore the ruins one day, he wouldn't be able to do without them.

Moreover, Xu Yinglong also knows Hongling's character very well, and knows that she doesn't want to owe herself a favor when she does this. You must know that what you can't owe in the world is favors, because favors are the heaviest debts in the world, and favors are easy to owe and difficult to repay. Since Hongling doesn't want to owe herself a favor, then why should she refuse, it's better to accept it, otherwise this girl will definitely hide far away in the future. (To be continued......) R1292
