7. Chapter 7
That night, Xiao Bai had dinner with Xiao Xueqing, and the latter asked, "How are you doing in retreat?" During this time, Xiao Bai had been practicing in retreat, and Xiao Xueqing had hardly seen him. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Xiao Bai didn't plan to tell his mother the true situation, firstly, he just succeeded in washing the marrow, and there was still a big distance from Xiao Jinnian, he didn't think it was worth showing off, and secondly, he thought of giving his mother a surprise at the end, and said vaguely: "It's okay." ā
Xiao Xueqing observed her words, and thought that Xiao Bai was not going well, her eyes darkened, but she still forced her spirit to encourage: "It's okay, take your time." ā
Xiao Bai nodded and said, "Mother, I want to go out of the city tomorrow, it may take a month." ā
Xiao Xueqing was a little surprised: "What are you going to do?"
Xiao Bai said: "I haven't made much progress at home, and I want to try a different environment." Although Xiao Xueqing didn't think that a change of environment could improve efficiency, she didn't know how to practice and had no other way, so she had to agree.
The next day, Xiao Bai left the city of smoke and rain and came to the secluded woods outside the city.
Xiao Bai adjusted his breathing, and the white wings on his back slowly stretched out his body, Xiao Bai fluttered his wings, and the wind rippled, blowing the surrounding weeds into pieces.
At the center of his eyebrows, the feathers of a feather realm buzzed and vibrated non-stop, providing fresh air for his wings, Xiao Bai's toes gradually left the ground, his body gradually took off, and he felt that his heart was gradually hanging in the air, he shook his legs excitedly, looking at the ground farther and farther away, and really flew up!?
Xiao Bai cheered heartily, his wings shook, and shot into the sky like arrows.
The sound of the wind whistled in his ears, and the city of smoke and rain quickly became smaller below, and the mountains, rivers, fields, and city of smoke and rain were in full view. Xiao Bai felt this feeling of freedom and ease, and at the same time flew towards a higher sky, and soon became a small black dot in the sky, so that even if the strong people of the human race saw it, they would think that Xiao Bai was some kind of bird.
The Red Dust Continent is a continent occupied by the Terrans, and there are very few Feather People, although the Terrans do not hate the Feather People, but Xiao Bai is still careful, so try to fly as high as possible.
Of course, he came out this time, not specifically for the test flight, but to quench the body.
As the second stage of the cultivation of beginner martial artists, body quenching is mainly to strengthen muscle strength and skin toughness, and improve the strength and resistance of martial artists.
Quenching the body usually requires the quenching pill, this elixir is refined by countless precious quenching elixirs to remove impurities, and is not oral, but dissolved in water to obtain a vat of quenching real liquid, the warrior soaks the body in the real liquid, absorbs the medicinal power of the real liquid, and quenches the body.
A Quenching Pill is worth sixty ingots, which is more expensive than the Purifying Pill, but for Xiao Bai at this moment, as long as he writes another cultivation book at will, he can sell it for a high price far exceeding sixty ingots. But he didn't plan to use the Quenching Pill to quench his body, because Xiao Bai had a better choice.
According to the records on the "Taiyi True Scripture", in the southwest of the Hongchen Continent, there is a high mountain called Trap Mountain, which is thousands of meters high, there is no grass on the mountain, and there is a depression and a big pit on the top of the mountain, so it is called "Trap". In the eyes of the world, the mountain is just a desolate place with no characteristics, but only a few people know that the reason why the mountain is empty is because its original summit floats up because of some unused force attached to the mountain, and it is hidden deep in the clouds, forming a delicate balance with the mountain.
The suspended top of the Trap Mountain floats in the depths of the white clouds two thousand meters away from the top of the Trap Mountain, and there is a quenching body pond on it, which is an excellent place to quench the body, compared to the Quenching Pill, it not only has higher efficiency, but also can temper a stronger body!
For the world, not to mention that it is difficult to know this divine pool, even if you know, you can only sigh, but for Xiao Bailai, who can spread his wings and fly high, it is a matter of easy reach. And coincidentally, the Trap Mountain is only two hundred miles away from Yanyu City, and Xiao Bai can reach it in a moment.
Xiao Bai flapped his wings and flew towards the west, the woods, rivers, and mountain peaks became extremely small, he looked down on the world, and suddenly realized in his heart, the world is so wide, the world is so wonderful, life is short, why has he been sad for others before, why can't he live for himself?
Xiao Bai looked at the rapidly regressing scenery under him, and his mood actually entered a state of tranquility that he had never experienced before, the ridicule and ridicule he had received in the past sixteen years, Xiao Wei's betrayal of himself a month ago, had become so insignificant, his heart was like a delicate crystal, not stained with the slightest dust.
Xiao Bai flew for a moment before he realized this incomparably peaceful state of mind, and couldn't help but say in his heart: "Could it be that I have already sensed the Dao Heart and entered the Innocent Realm?"
The stronger the Dao heart, not only the stronger the mind, but also the higher the perception of the world, strong enough to a certain extent, and the Dao heart can even be used to fight. The heart of the Tao is divided into five realms: immaculate, selfless, subtle, clear, and manifest. Normally, a person who has not practiced for more than ten years has very few people who have comprehended the Dao Heart, even if it is Xiao Zhen, the head of the Xiao family, and several elders, their Dao Heart is only in the Pure Realm. And Xiao Bai comprehended the Dao Heart at the age of sixteen, which is extremely rare.
The corners of Xiao Bai's mouth hooked up a smile, and he flew all the way, and soon, a towering mountain peak was in sight.
......
Hollow mountain, hanging top.
This floating in the sky, the wonderful realm in the depths of the white clouds, perennial inaccessible, surrounded by rough and stubborn stones, not a single inch of grass, only a pool of clear pool water in the middle, no sunlight shining, but shining with colorful strange luster, clouds and mist drifting on the pool, but adding a layer of psychedelic color to the pool water.
A huge golden carp broke through the clouds and fell to the top of the air, the belly of the fish landed on the ground, but it was stable, and under closer inspection, the eyes of the golden carp were lifeless, it turned out that the carp was not a living thing, but a delicate secret treasure.
Then the golden carp's mouth opened widely, and a girl in yellow and an old man in gray robe walked out of it.
The girl is fourteen or fifteen years old, her face is extremely beautiful, her pure and lovely appearance is mixed with a little charming style, a pair of red lips are as delicate as newborn cherries, coveted, the corners of her lips are slightly upturned, with a proud attitude; A pair of beautiful eyes looking around curiously, looking forward to it, you can see the girl's innocence and immaturity, and from time to time it reveals a kind of soul-seducing gorgeousness.
And the gray-robed old man was robed to the ground, his eyes were lowered, and he was a little lazy, as if he hadn't woken up, but if he looked closely, his eyes were deep and empty, and he was clearly a great powerhouse who had cultivated to the point of returning to the basics.
The girl in yellow was like a deer, she quickly ran to the edge of the pool, and said with a smile: "Elder Ming, is this the quenching divine pool you said?"
The old man bowed his head slightly: "Yes, miss, you have completed the marrow washing, and then dived into this pool water for quenching, you can quench your body successfully within a month, and there is a great chance to reach the state of perfect quenching." ā
"Got it, Ming Lao, you can go, after I finish quenching, I will call you with the messenger fish talisman. ā
The old man was motionless and said, "Miss is a body of gold, and the old slave should never leave an inch and guard Miss's side." ā
The girl in the costume stomped her feet, and a look of shame appeared on her delicate face: "I quench my body and want to take off my clothes, how can I quench my body if you stay here!?"
The old man said unhurriedly: "The old slave can create an enclosed space for the young lady with Xuanli, and the old slave guarantees that he will not see anything." ā
The girl shouted: "I don't want it! Your space is so dark that you can't see anything, besides, I really don't know what you're worried about, there are less than a hundred forces in the entire Red Dust Continent that have flying secret treasures, and they are all famous families, who doesn't know Miss Ben? Sensing the breath of our Mo family's golden carp boat, who dares to come over?"
The old man said earnestly: "Miss, in addition to the flying secret treasure in this world, there are many creatures that can also fly, including some creatures with high spiritual intelligence, such as the feather people of the Flying Heaven Continent, in the history of the Red Dust Continent, there are many feather clans who have crossed millions of miles of heavenly ravines and come to the Red Dust Continent. ā
The girl said: "It is said that there is a feather clan in the Red Dust Continent, why has Miss Ben never seen it!? If there really is, Miss Ben is not afraid of it, and she will be tamed directly to be used as a mount, which must be much more interesting than riding a golden carp boat!!......!" The girl laughed heartily twice, and interrupted the old man who was still talking: "Okay, Ming Lao, Miss Ben is going to quench her body, please leave." ā
The old man knew that it was impossible to convince this rude and willful young lady, so he said helplessly: "The old slave is two miles away, and if the young lady is in danger, she will immediately notify the old slave with a messenger fish charm." ā
The girl said categorically: "No, two miles is too close, at least twenty miles, otherwise Miss Ben will not be able to quench her body with peace of mind." ā
The old man frowned and said, "Twenty miles, the messenger fish talisman will be invalid." ā
The girl said angrily: "If it fails, it will be invalid! Miss Ben said that she will not encounter danger, you don't talk about it anymore, you must be twenty miles away! Don't try to lie to me, the messenger fish charm can sense your location!!"
The old man sighed and said, "If the old slave is so far away, how can the old slave be notified after the girl completes the quenching?"
The girl said: "Don't you say that you will complete the quenching within a month, you will come in a month!"
The old man had no choice but to take out a white porcelain necklace from his arms and hand it to the girl, the white porcelain necklace was shaped like a snow-white bat, with a bloody mouth and wings, which looked quite hideous.
The old man said: "Miss, please put on the necklace, if you encounter danger, as long as you crush the necklace, you can subdue the enemy, if Miss does not accept the necklace, the old slave insists on not leaving!"
"Alright, alright!" the girl hung the necklace around her neck impatiently, "That's it, don't delay Miss Ben!" The girl impatiently caught up with the old man to the golden carp boat, which quickly flew away and disappeared into the depths of the sea of clouds.
The girl waited for a long time, and through the fish talisman in her palm, she sensed that the old man had indeed gone far, so she slowly took off her clothes and slowly walked into the quenching pool that shone with a colorful luster.
