Gu Yan's father is the largest immortal cultivation family in Yunyang City, the son of the Gu family.

In a booklet, her father recorded the history of his family and some common knowledge in the world of cultivating immortals. The most lofty in the world of immortal cultivation are naturally those immortal cultivation sects that have a long inheritance and a long history. They basically occupied the spiritual veins and heavenly treasures between heaven and earth, and recruited a large number of disciples with excellent qualifications.

Outside of these sects, there are scattered cultivators and immortal cultivators. The qualifications of casual cultivation are usually not outstanding, but with acquired efforts, there are also a small number of achievements that can be achieved.

And the Xiuxian family is all inherited by blood. Whether an immortal cultivator family is strong or not depends on the mana of the immortal cultivators in the family. The powerful Immortal Cultivator family can even be compared to some medium-sized sects. But this kind of family that is purely maintained by blood cannot guarantee a long-term inheritance, and once the master of the clan sits down, it will soon decline.

The current Xiuxian family, if there are a few monks in the foundation building period to sit in the formation, then it will be very remarkable, and other book friends will read it normally:. Only those huge families who rely on the gate sect to survive will have masters in the clan who are in the Dan stage.

Gu Yan's father is named Gu Jianchen. His family is very famous in the territory of the Yue Kingdom. It is because the patriarch of the clan, Gu Jianchen's grandfather, is a monk in the middle stage of foundation building.

Among mortals, there is no one in ten thousand who can have a spiritual root and are qualified to cultivate immortals. And most of these people who have spiritual roots are trapped in the Qi refining period and can't advance an inch, and there is probably only less than a 1 in 1,000 chance of being able to build a foundation. Once the foundation is built, it is truly the threshold of cultivating immortals.

Gu Jianchen was a monk of the Four Spirit Roots back then, and he was considered a person with good qualifications in the family. It only took twenty years to cultivate to the fifth level of qi refining, but he was young and vigorous, and when he was looking for a spiritual grass in the East China Sea, he had a conflict with someone from another family and seriously injured the other party. Unexpectedly, that person was actually a disciple of a sect in the Yue Kingdom. Although the strength of that sect was very weak in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, and there were only six or seven foundation-building stage monks sitting in the formation, that was not something that their family could shake. The other party invited a senior brother who practiced qi at the seventh level, and as soon as he made a move, he was seriously injured and fell into the sea, and his meridians were completely destroyed. If it weren't for Yan Ruoran, who was in the East China Sea at the time, he would have died here.

After Gu Jianchen woke up, he found that his meridians were all destroyed, and even if he cultivated again, he could not return to his previous cultivation. He was originally the proud son of the family, and when he was disheartened, he didn't want to go back, so he simply lived in seclusion here. Although Yan Ruoran is just a mortal, he has a gentle personality and good looks, and the two of them fell in love for a long time, so they got married, and within two years, they had Gu Yan.

It's just that Yan Ruoran did it with someone when he was giving birth to Gu Yan, and as a result, he had fetal gas, cold qi entered the body, and it was stagnant in the lungs, and the internal injuries could not be healed. Gu Jianchen used the prescription in the clan to treat her, but the prescription was mostly spiritual grass, which was difficult to find in the world, and he frequently went to sea because the East China Sea was a holy place for cultivating immortals, and it was prolific because of the exotic flowers and plants.

Gu Yan read this booklet very carefully, after all, he could feel his father's past between the lines. At the bottom is a thin book, about a dozen pages. It says "The True Recipe of Insight". When I opened it, it was densely written with fly-headed letters, and there was a graphic on each page. Presumably this is the immortal cultivation method passed down from his father's family.

She suddenly had a yearning for the immortal cultivator, that bad guy surnamed Ren was just a lowliest entry-level person, he could force their mother and daughter to be cornered, if she could cultivate, wouldn't she be able to protect her mother? Gu Yan's young heart slowly established a firm belief, and other book friends read it normally:.

She didn't know the two stones and the two pieces of yellow paper, so she didn't move them, and put the box close to her. These days, she hides in the trees, drinks dew, and picks wild fruits for a living. It's been a month.

She was originally healthy, and her parents consciously taught her some qi cultivation skills when she was young, and her body was very healthy. This month, although I have experienced a lot of hardships, I still survived. During this period, she would meditate and practice every day according to the method in the book, although she did not have the qi feeling of "refining qi into the body" as mentioned in the book, but her body became lighter and stronger, but she could feel it.

Gu Yan carefully avoided the thorns on the road, she didn't dare to tear her clothes again, because there was nothing to change. Clamping the box tightly, he walked to the edge of the woods and looked out.

In the distance, the sky was high and the clouds were faint, and there was a faint sound of waves crashing on the shore, and a few seabirds flew by in the sky, streaking a long trail in the blue sky. It was so quiet all around, as if nothing had happened. The eight-year-old girl hugged the box tightly and walked towards the original village.

She walked very cautiously every step, for fear that another enemy would appear. But after walking for several miles, I didn't see a single figure. There were some discarded and broken weapons on the ground, but there were no corpses, so someone must have cleaned up the battlefield. She walked slowly, and it took half a day for her to return to the small village where she was born in the afternoon.

The village was still in such a dilapidated state, full of traces of fire, and the thatched huts were burned to the ground with only black ashes. It's just that the corpse seems to have been collected, probably because of the plague. Gu Yan found the place where her home was, knelt down and kowtowed three times to the empty ground. Then she found a piece of charred bark and carved the words crookedly on it with a broken dagger she had picked up along the way. These are some code words that only she and her family can understand, and if their father or mother returns here one day, they will know that she is still alive.

With all this done, she staggered into the distance, the village was too dead, and she wanted to find another place to live.

About a few miles from here, she made a new home. There was no one to help, and it was all up to her to do it herself. She built a hut out of trees and bamboos that she could find by the sea, and during the day she went to the beach to scavenge for the delicacies that were left over after the tide had receded, some of which were left to satisfy hunger, and some of which were exchanged for salt and coarse cloth in distant towns.

In order to avoid the covetousness of people with hearts, she always blackened her face and pretended to be a little girl with a disabled leg, saying that because of the war, the adults in the family were sick in bed, so she could only come out alone to earn a living, get some food and go back to support her family. Most of those people who pity her will help her. Occasionally, some ill-intentioned people were also avoided by her thoughts, and although they suffered a lot, they still persevered after all.

In the evening, when the moon was in the middle of the sky, she sat cross-legged with her palms facing each other, one hand to the sky and the other to the ground, according to the method left in the book. Feel the flow of vitality between heaven and earth.

In this way, two years have passed, and although her body has become lighter and stronger, the meridians in her body still have no feeling. Gu Yan couldn't help but feel a little depressed.

According to the book, those who are highly gifted and practice according to the exercises should have a small success within a month. Two years is enough time for ordinary people to break through to the second layer of qi refining. Is he really a waste of wood without spiritual roots?

In fact, she didn't know that immortal cultivators with a teacher or family lineage, at the beginning of their entry, they all cultivated in the place where they were born with spiritual veins, or they had a spiritual elixir given by their teacher to replenish their vitality. Like her, she doesn't understand it at all, and her qualifications are not high, and she only relies on an introductory method, and she has not made any progress in two years, which is really a normal thing.

After another two years, she was already twelve years old, her face gradually grew, her body also became taller, because she practiced every night, her body was stronger than that of children of the same age, and now she looked like a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl. In the past three years, she would go to the beach every morning to visit, and every half a month, she would go back to the original site to check, but there was no news of her parents.

That night, she sat there quietly, a bright moon hanging in the middle, it was the time of the child, the yin energy was exhausted, and the yang energy was born. She slowly made a breath, and slowly entered a state of sleep, and her thinking seemed to stop completely, with only a glimmer of clarity. But the sense of external objects has become more and more acute. Even the birds that passed by in the distance, she could feel the trajectory of the movement.

These days, she feels that she is becoming more and more calm in her meditation, as if she is about to make a breakthrough. According to the way of exhalation in the book, she quietly inhaled the external qi, and then exhaled the turbid qi in her body. After about hundreds of weeks of continuous cycle, she suddenly felt her body slowly lighten, like a feather floating between heaven and earth. Her top door seemed to have opened a hole, and a trace of aura slowly poured in from the outside world, taking root in her meridians, cleansing her meridians, and forming a small cycle in the dantian.

Gu Yan knew that she had reached the most elementary stage of "refining qi into the body" contained in the book.

She held back her ecstasy and felt the aura of the outside world running in her body. She didn't seem to need to breathe anymore, but formed a small cycle in her body, and she swallowed the aura of the outside world a little greedily, until four hours had passed, and the sky was slightly pale, and she woke up from meditation.

After moving my whole body a little, I felt that all the veins in my limbs were extremely full, as if I had been reborn. When she got up, she felt that her body was sticky, and when she looked at it, she found that her body was soaked with a lot of sweat stains and dirt, which was a phenomenon that should be after refining qi into her body.

Gu Yan couldn't help jumping, although she had lived an independent and strong life alone in the past three years, no matter what, she was still a child. From today onwards, she can be regarded as an immortal cultivator. Although her skills are very shallow, only one level of qi refining, almost no one in the immortal cultivation world, but after all, this is based on her solid cultivation step by step.

She took out her stored fresh water, took a good shower, and changed into a new dress. Feel refreshed from head to toe. Stand outside and look out at the sea.

It's been four years and there hasn't been a bit of news from my parents. She remembered what her mother said back then, if she couldn't find her father, let her go to Yunyang City to find the relatives of her father's family. She silently said in her heart: It's time.

After three months, a thin and delicate young man, carrying a package on his back and a short sword at his waist, kowtowed three times in the ruins of that deserted village, and then embarked on a long journey.
