Under the escort of Su Liuliu, we were able to return to the provincial capital smoothly.

And the moment we stepped into the provincial capital, the ghost qi in Su Liuliu's body was released without reservation, and at that moment, a strong coercion was transmitted in all directions.

Su Liuliu's move was to announce to all the forces in the provincial capital that he had successfully broken through to the late stage of the second star, which was a notice and a warning.

Spiritual Bureau.

Originally, Chen Yi was discussing the matter of the martial arts competition with many high-level officials. However, in the middle of the meeting, a strong ghostly fluctuation swept directly over, and a look of shock appeared on the faces of many high-level executives at the moment.

"Su Liuliu actually really broke through to the late stage of the second star?"

After feeling the fluctuation of the ghostly qi, Chen Yi's face was extraordinarily exciting, and he turned his head stiffly, trying to get an answer from the mouths of the people around him. However, what responded to him were shocked faces, and everyone's expressions made him understand that Su Liuliu had indeed broken through to the late stage of the second star.

"This kid is amazing." Zhao Kun recovered from the shock, took a deep breath, and said: "You can achieve such an achievement at this age, even if you look at the whole of China, there are not many people who can stand out from the right." ”

"It's terrifying!"

Many high-level officials praised one after another, although they were much older than Su Liuliu, but cultivators paid attention to strength, and Su Liuliu was stronger than them, so he deserved their respect.

At the same time, several major families in the provincial capital were also boiling, and the advent of a two-star late-stage powerhouse was enough to be valued by everyone, especially a two-star late-stage powerhouse who was just in his early twenties.

"Be sure to have a good relationship with them!"

This is the opinion of the vast majority of people, after all, even in the whole of China, this strength can be regarded as outstanding. What's more, from another point of view, Su Liuliu's potential can also be called terrifying. With such an accomplishment at the age of twenty-one, who knows where he will go in the future?

Su Liuliu's smooth breakthrough unsurprisingly set off a wave of heat within the Spiritual Adjustment Bureau, and many people were discussing Su Liuliu and the ghost elimination club behind him after tea and dinner, and there was no lack of respect in his words.

In this world, it is the strong who are respected, and this is especially prominent among cultivators.

I know this very well, so when I go back, I spend all day on the training ground trying to break through to the top 10 before the tournament, so that I can compete for the top 10.

Due to the well-known relationship between Su Liuliu and the Ghost Eradication Society, during this time, we cultivated ghost qi in the training ground, and there were no people who did not open their eyes to come to find trouble.

After all, the strength of Su Liuliu and the Ghost Eradication Society is no longer what it used to be, even the children of the Zhao Zhou family, who have been at odds with us, must weigh the price before doing things, and ignore the rules of the Spirit Adjustment Bureau as before, and directly force us in the training ground should not happen again in the short term.

In this undisturbed environment, I made rapid progress. Relying on a large number of pure ghost crystals, I was able to break through to the eighth order of the late one-star stage in three days, so to speak, I was only one step away from the peak of the late-stage one-star stage.

But it was this last step, and I couldn't take it for a long time, and absorbing the ghost crystal had little effect.

The effect of ghost crystals is limited, and it is difficult to have an effect after reaching a **neck, just like after overeating, the excess food will not become a part of the body, but will be spit out.

"Well, it can't go on like this."

Another piece of pure ghost crystal, reduced to pieces in my hands. Seeing this, I shook my head, put away the remaining dozen or so ghost crystals, and said helplessly: "It's not the problem of ghost crystals, it's that I've reached the ** neck, and it's just a waste to use ghost crystals again, so let's spend two days to stabilize the current realm first." ”

Thinking of this, I shrugged my shoulders and left the training ground alone.

The goose-feathered snow slowly drifted down from the dreary sky, covering the earth with a layer of silver, and the weather in the provincial capital at the end of December was so bad that there was a heavy snowfall every three or five days.

In the end, it was the north, and now it was just in time for the temperature to be at its lowest, and the temperature was close to minus thirty degrees, even if we cultivators didn't wrap our ghost qi outside our bodies, we would feel cold.

"It's so cold."

I took a hot breath on my hand; I rubbed my hands and walked into the yard, and as soon as I entered, I saw Ye Yuyou building a snowman, which was almost finished.

"Ye Huohuo, I'm stacked with you, don't you look like it!" Seeing me coming back, Ye Yuyou immediately beckoned to me and said excitedly.

"Like like." Glancing at the snowman with a green onion stuck in its nose in the yard, I rolled my eyes and said perfunctorily, but in my heart I said it looked like a ghost!

"Perfunctory." Ye Yu muttered, then pulled me over domineeringly, patted the snowman, and said with a smile: "Come, let's take a photo with the snowman." ”

"Okay" I nodded helplessly, and took a photo with her next to the snowman, which was a beautiful memento.

Unlike me, who was busy and anxious, Ye Yuyou has been quite Buddhist these days, and she stays at home all day. According to her, she has already reached the ** neck, and no matter how much she cultivates, it will have no effect, so it is better to go with the flow, maybe one day she will break through.

This Nizi also tied a hammock in the yard, and usually lay on it, so she didn't have to worry about the cold. Potato chips and drinks are arranged, and while enjoying the food and playing games, the reputation is lying in the yard to better sense the ghosts of heaven and earth.

There is nothing wrong with this reason, I am speechless, because there are a lot of plants, so the yard is indeed the most ghostly place in this neighborhood.

In fact, I think her Buddhist approach is right, ** neck period is a very special stage, and desperate cultivation at this stage may be counterproductive, so it is better to relax and wait quietly for the moment when the opportunity comes.

Not only Ye Yuyou, but also Xu Xue, Jiang Chen, Xie Zhen and others have reached the ** neck stage, and they don't plan to waste time on the training ground these days, but are busy with their own things.

Xu Xue and her elders went out to practice, Jiang Chen ran to perform tasks, Xie Zhen went to do his old job of fortune telling again, Sun Wei was also busy with family affairs, and Sun Qing and Sun Chengqian could occasionally accompany me to practice ghost qi.

Yes, it's all Buddhist.

"I've been stuck in the eighth order for several days, and no matter how many ghost crystals I use, it's useless, and I can't break through for a long time." I sighed and said, "I'm also going to be a Buddha now." ”

"This kind of thing can't be rushed, take your time, maybe you will suddenly make a breakthrough on the eve of the martial arts competition." Ye Yuyou comforted.

"I hope too" I smiled bitterly, today is the twenty-nineth, there are only two days left before the martial arts competition, and it is basically impossible for me to break through to the peak of one star before this.

However, my strength in the eighth order is not weak, and if I am lucky, it is not impossible to rush to the top ten.

"You can play outside, I'll go inside."

After talking to Ye Yuyou, who was still decorating the snowman, he walked to the house, and before he reached the door, an old voice sounded behind him.

"Cough, little brother Ye Yan, come out with the old man to talk."

An old man appeared at the gate of the courtyard at some point, and his cloudy old eyes exuded a trace of vicissitudes and a hint of shrewdness. When I saw the comer, I was shocked and said, "Old Xu? ”

This old man is the owner who rented me the Yang Yan Sword, Xu Jian.

"Old Xu, why are you here?" I suddenly had a smile on my face, and I walked over quickly, but I was muttering in my heart whether Xu Jian was here to collect debts, but I am still a poor bastard

"Just take a look." Xu Jian glanced at me, then looked at Ye Yuyou with a little surprise in his eyes, and said, "You are Ye Yan's sister, Ye Yuyou?" ”

"Uh-huh."

Hearing this, Ye Yuyou's snowman didn't pile up anymore, so he immediately stood up and said obediently: "Hello Grandpa Xu." ”

Ye Yuyou has always been likable, whether it is male or female, old or young, she seems to have a charm in her, that is, people unconsciously have a good impression of her.

No, as soon as her words fell, Xu Jian, who had been keeping a straight face, suddenly laughed, and said with a smile: "Having such strength at a young age is really terrifying, it seems that the title of the top genius is true." ”

"Hehe, Grandpa Xu has a good reputation." Ye Yuyu said modestly.

Looking at Ye Yuyou, Xu Jian nodded with satisfaction, his face was full of appreciation, and then he looked at me again, his expression suddenly changed, his face also pulled down, and asked in a muffled voice: "Did you bring the Yang Yan Sword?" ”

I wondered in my heart how Xu Jian could change his face faster than turning a book, how he smiled when he looked at Ye Yuyou, and looked disgusted when he looked at me???

Am I so ugly!

After complaining a few words in my heart, I still said respectfully: "Take it, I always carry it with me." ”

"Well, that's pretty much it."

Xu Jian nodded, his face softened slightly, and said to me: "Take the sword, follow me to the training tower, you haven't completely eaten this Yang Yan Sword yet, I'll give you some pointers." ”
