Hou Xuan made such a fuss, Tian Weipu's disciples naturally couldn't sit still, and they all cultivated seriously in private, and they were no longer as lazy as usual. After all, under Zhang Xiangyi's care, although Tian Weipu's disciples were not as strong as other disciples of the Thousand Machines Palace, their strength had improved by leaps and bounds. But Zhang Xiangyi has always been protective of his shortcomings, and he is friendly with the three brothers of Shen Youjia, and the inner disciples of the Xuanyi Sect do not dare to easily find trouble with the disciples of Tian Weipu.

Now that someone has the idea of hitting the position of "Tian Wei", that is really going to target Tian Weipu.

"Two elders, what do you think about this matter?"

Zhang Xiangyi asked politely. Although Tian Weipu is her principal, the identity of the two elders is there after all, and Zhang Xiangyi will ask the two elders for advice on Tian Weipu's big and small affairs.

"Senior nephew Tian Wei, the selection rules for this one and eight guards were set by Master Zu. It is to keep the head of the Eight Guards with an enterprising heart, continue to cultivate, and always keep the strength of the Eight Guards from declining. This matter, the master and nephew must take it seriously, if the competition is lost, then Tian Weipu has to be handed over to Zhao Kun to be in charge. One of the elders said.

"Senior brother is right, I think my nephew is still concentrating on preparing for the battle, so Zhao Kun can blatantly challenge him, so he naturally relies on it. Another elder chimed in.

Obviously, although the two elders usually support Zhang Xiangyi, in the competition for the position of "Tian Wei", the elders in the door encourage internal competition and follow the survival of the fittest.

Then, the two elders left under the pretext that something was wrong. Zhang Xiangyi also took some of the following disciples away. The entire Tianweipu Thousand Machine Hall suddenly became empty, leaving only her and Li Bai.

Li Bai is well aware of Zhang Xiangyi's difficulties, losing the Nine Lives Yin Soul Cat, and being seriously injured while treating Li Bai's injuries, these must have had an impact on his strength, but she has been holding it in her heart and is unwilling to tell Li Bai.

"Xiangyi?" Li Bai shouted quietly.

Zhang Xiangyi was looking outside the hall gate in a daze, and didn't hear Li Bai calling herself at all.

"Xiangyi?"

"Poof!"

Li Bai shouted again, and walked over to her.

The Blackwater Crocodile exhaled and seemed to be calling out to her.

"There it is!"

Zhang Xiangyi suddenly shouted loudly, with a smug smile on her face, it seemed that she had already thought of how to deal with Zhao Kun of Bai Weipu.

......

Tian Wei Pu, Water Mirror Lake.

There are only three short months left before the recruitment of new disciples and the selection competition of the inner sect. On the one hand, Li Bai was worried about Zhang Xiangyi, and on the other hand, he had to find a way to pass the entrance assessment of the new disciples. Otherwise, if he really lost Zhang Xiangyi's protection, Li Bai would be embarrassed to continue to stay in Xuan Yixian Mountain.

He has always been curious about what method Zhang Xiangyi used to let him, who had no spiritual root, enter the inner door of the Guanyi Gate smoothly.

From morning to night, Li Bai kept practicing the blue water Baguazhang and the Hades breath technique. He knew that he couldn't let the aura gather in his body, but he still held on to his illusions, hoping that a miracle would appear, and his spiritual root would suddenly appear and become a true aura cultivator.

In order to become a warrior, he also fantasized countless times that he could get a spirit bead, and through the spiritual power cultivation of the spirit bead, he became a warrior. During the Colin Civil War, Li Bai did become a spiritual warrior, but what he experienced in the middle was far more difficult than becoming a warrior.

He sat cross-legged on the body of the black water crocodile, quietly breathing in the moist air of the lake, in the mist, a little streamer flying, a kind of insect that inhabits the lake. With the help of the aura on the lake, they emit a little light, trying to make a final resistance to fate, unwilling to be so obscure, dying in the twilight of life.

Li Bomo recited the mantra of the Baguazhang of the blue water, and used the stupid method of spiritual power cultivation to forcibly absorb the spiritual energy on the lake and gather it in the palms of his hands.

Then the aura in the two hands turned into two strands of yin and yang, one side was extremely cold, and the other was unbearably hot.

Li Baiqiang endured the pain, and struggled to close his hands together, blending the two auras to form a more refined aura.

After the pure aura was formed, it instantly submerged into Li Bai's body, and then wandered in the meridians and disappeared.

"No, the aura still can't be condensed. Come again!"

Then, he ran the blue water Baguazhang again, but in the end, he still failed.

Subsequently, he changed to the Hades Breath Technique, trying to imitate Chu Xiaoscoop's method of absorbing aura. But every time the first aura condensed and poured into his body, there was only a moment when Li Bai could feel the presence of that aura, and then the aura dissipated in the meridians. That wonderful state also disappeared immediately, and it turned to physical and mental exhaustion.

Repeatedly, failed again and again. Li Bai was anxious, but then hated the injustice of God......

"Poof......

Suddenly, a spiritual aura that had just been condensed lost control and went backwards in Li Bai's body, causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood and faint on the back of the black water crocodile.

The black water crocodile only felt that there was an extra trace of blood in the lake water, and the faint smell of blood spread in the water. It slowly turned around and swam towards the lake with Li Bai.

In a daze, Li Bai saw a little light, and he walked along the light and found something in the shape of a pine cone, which shimmered again.

With the experience of devouring the Spirit Yang Fruit, Li Bai knew at a glance that this was a treasure. He slowly approached the glow, trying to reach out and "grab" the pine cone.

Compared with the Spirit Devouring Yang Fruit, the pine cone in front of him was larger, and his whole body was blue.

"Whew-"

When Li Bai's hand touched the glowing pine cone, a magical aura spread from the pine cone to Li Bai.

With a "whew", Li Bai's soul flew out of his body involuntarily.

He snapped open his eyes and floated in the air, watching the black water crocodile carry his body and slowly swim towards the lake.

He knew that his body and soul could not be too far away, so he wanted to catch up with the black water crocodile, and his heart moved, and he instantly came to the sky above the black water crocodile.

"It's ?...... Reiki!"

Li Bai felt the "body" in the state of the soul, and seemed to be more flexible than before. He stretched out his hand slightly, gathered his breath, and a majestic aura was sucked into the palm of his hand. Absorbed into the soul without hindrance.

After repeating this a few times, Li Bai found that his soul appeared lighter and his aura more abundant.

Every time I think of it, there is no way for the heavens to be endless, and Li Bai, who has no spiritual root, can actually cultivate spiritual energy in the form of a soul.

After confirming that all of this was true, Li Bai tried the Blue Water Bagua Palm and the Hades Breath Technique again.

He was pleasantly surprised to find that he was in a state of soul. The original blunt and difficult to use the clear water Baguazhang suddenly became relaxed and easy.

As for the Hades Breath Technique, when the soul absorbed enough aura from heaven and earth, the Hades Breath Technique displayed by Li Bai's soul was compelling, even more domineering, and not even weaker than Chu Xiaoscoop's.

"Great! I'm able to absorb the aura and be able to cultivate!"

Subsequently, he deliberately used the blue water Bagua Palm, condensed a "palm" with the lake water, and secretly slapped at the black water crocodile.

The black water crocodile naturally felt the aura on its back, and suddenly stopped, the aura surged, and a layer of black aura shrouded it.

"Boom!"

With a "bang" sound, Li Bai's condensed "palm" was shattered by it, and a mist fell.

As for the one lying on the back of the black water crocodile, it was drenched by the lake and stuck to the back of the mischievous crocodile.

"Heh......"

Li Bai was suddenly embarrassed, and wanted to tease the black water crocodile himself, but he didn't expect it to be so clever, so he teased himself instead.

"Forget it, don't worry about it, cultivation matters. ”

......

For the next month, Li Bai always sat cross-legged on the back of the black water crocodile and cultivated on the Shuijing Lake. He first settled down, and entered a mysterious state early, as if in an illusory dream. Then, with the help of the aura of the pine cone in the dream, let his soul out of the body, and then cultivate the aura in the state of the soul.

Every time he finished cultivating, he tried to use himself to mobilize his aura, but no matter how hard he tried, his body was like a stubborn stone, and he was never able to mobilize his aura.

On the contrary, in the soul state, the body is light and the spiritual power is abundant, and he is completely in the posture of an immortal. The blue water Baguazhang and the Hades breath technique are a small success, and the power can be seen.

"What is a spiritual root, and how can I obtain it?"

Whenever Li Bai's soul returned to his body, he meditated and thought that if he could find a way to obtain the spiritual root, then the entrance assessment of a new disciple would be a piece of cake.

In order to prepare for the introductory assessment of new disciples in two months, as well as the competition of inner disciples, Xuan Yibawei was often summoned by the head of the sect to do some preparations. As one of the eight guards, Zhang Xiangyi will inevitably have some trivial matters to deal with.

Just when Zhang Xiangyi and the two elders were not there, two people in the Qianji Hall of Tianweipu sneaked in and went straight to the Qianji House behind the flower garden, as if they were looking for something.
