Chu Qing put away the ancient paintings and bronze mirrors, and said to his father: "Don't worry, Dad, the master is now bent on finding an inheritor, and my hard work in cultivation is the best thank you gift to him!"

After eating the food brought by her mother, Chu Qing told her the news that her father could be cured. Qin Su thought that Chu Qing had made up such a reason to make himself happy, and just wanted to blame him for not making fun of Chu Feng's illness, but seeing that Chu Qing didn't seem to be joking, he asked in detail, and Chu Qing told the story of the mountain again.

"The old man who lives in the mountains at night?" Qin Sudai frowned slightly, "Could that be some kind of demon and monster who changed and wanted to kill you?" Qin Su was a little worried, as the saying goes, "If something goes wrong, there must be a demon" What if the old man has the idea of beating Chu Qing!

"Don't worry, old lady! If the master wanted to be unfavorable to me, he would have done it last night, so why bother so much effort! I have carefully observed before, and the master is a normal human like us. And he's so powerful that he won't care about a little person like me. ”

Qin Su was still a little afraid that Chu Qing would be fooled, and nagged him to pay attention to him, once he found out that something was wrong, he would not contact the old man again. After trying hard to persuade the old lady to believe in herself, Chu Qing went back to the house to make up for a beautiful sleep, it was tiring enough to toss for so long, he didn't even get up to eat a bite of lunch, and waited until he got up in the afternoon to eat a meal that his mother made for him.

After waking up, some news came from the village that surprised Chu Qing, it was said that the beast king on the mountain, King Kong Ape, had disappeared! In the afternoon, a hunting party that came down from the mountain said that they had investigated the source of last night's sound, and there was nothing left but a mess and blood. There was blood everywhere, and they followed the direction of the blood stains to find a huge cave in a mountain a hundred miles away, which was supposed to be the lair of the beast king Vajra Ape, and there was also nothing left but blood stains and traces of fighting.

"It seems that last night's fight King Kong Ape should have lost, and there must have been no good ending, most likely swallowed by the terrifying six-legged snake. The master had said before that the six-legged snake evolved into this form by devouring other demon beasts, and I don't know what it will become after eating the Vajra Ape! Speaking of which, the Vajra Ape is also one of my life-saving beasts, and it is a pity that he died like this. Although he regretted it, he didn't have any sad emotions, after all, he still knew the rules of the jungle.

In addition, there is also news in the village that the selection team in the city has reached a village hundreds of miles away from the mountain village. In terms of the foot strength of the villagers around the mountain, a few hundred miles is not far away, and it can be walked down in two or three days at most. The people in the city have heard that they all have powerful mounts to travel, and they must be able to reach the mountain village almost tomorrow. The villagers in every household in the village are very excited, hoping that their children will be selected to get out of the village. But these have nothing to do with Chu Qing, he has to go up the mountain tonight to get the elixir that his master has refined for his father, and by the way, he starts the first day of cultivation, and when he thinks that his father will be able to live a normal life in the future, he becomes even more excited than those villagers.

Time passed in an instant, and Chu Qing said goodbye to his father and mother before it was dark, and walked towards the mountain under their worried eyes. He had already promised his father and mother that if the master did not appear after dark, he would go down the mountain immediately, and he would never stop on the mountain for long.

"Don't worry about Su Su, since Chu Qing has made up his mind to recognize this master, we should support him. Chu Feng persuaded Qin Su after seeing the sad expression on her face. But why didn't he worry about Chu Qing, they all said that children are the hearts and minds of their parents, and he is not immune.

Chu Qing stopped moving forward after coming to the dividing line between the mountain and the foot of the mountain, which was the end of all the horror stories at night in the mountain. The sun disappeared after a while, Chu Qing stood at the foot of the mountain, and the roars of beasts in the mountain did not change in any way because of the disappearance of the Vajra Ape. It is evergreen all year round, only the rainy season and the dry season are distinguished, and the rain of the previous few days has not completely disappeared, and the road surface is still muddy.

"It feels like everything yesterday was like a dream. Chu Qing said to himself, and suddenly noticed a little light in the woods, and after looking closely, he found that it was an old man walking towards him with a lantern. After confirming that it was Xuan Lao, Chu Qing dared to step into the mountain to join him.

The two of them didn't go directly to the hut, Xuan Lao took him around the mountain, the main purpose was to pick medicinal herbs, and secondly, to let him see the scene inside the mountain. Chu Qing found that when they walked in the mountains, they did not take one step at a time like ordinary people, but changed positions in an instant. Xuan Lao explained that this was called spatial teleportation, and he could do it after he cultivated to a certain level. In addition, there were two things that surprised him even more, one was that the medicine that Xuan Lao had finished picking disappeared with a wave of his hand, and he heard that it was directly hidden in the storage space he carried with him, and the other was that when they passed by some demon beasts, those demon beasts couldn't even find them. Later, Chu Qing carefully observed the surroundings and found that there was a membrane-like thing within a radius of the two of them, and it was this thing that protected them from being discovered by demon beasts or those "ghosts". At this moment, Chu Qing had a preliminary understanding of how amazing cultivation was, and he began to yearn for the life of a monk in the future.

After the two of them had collected enough elixir, they returned to the hut, and Chu Qing took out the ancient painting and bronze mirror that he had carried up the mountain from home from his pocket and said to Xuan Lao, "Teacher, do you know these things?"

Xuan Lao took the painting and the bronze mirror, and looked up at Chu Qing: "Where did you get these things from?"

"This is what my dad found in a cave when he went into the mountains, and he said that he found some other things at that time, but they were just snatched away. Chu Qing replied.

Xuan Lao pointed to the painting on the wall that was exactly the same as this one and said, "This is actually the same painting, a painting that contains supreme sword intent and sword momentum, but it is artificially divided into nine. Whoever can put it together in the future will have the opportunity to understand the mysteries. The one on the wall is one I got from my early years, and over the years I have collected four paintings and put them together. In addition, your words are the fifth, and there should be four left, so you can reproduce the appearance of the woman in the painting, and the person who completes the collection can also feel the kendo in the painting. ”

Xuan Lao waved at the painting on the wall, and the painting fell into his hand, and then he made a strange gesture with his right hand, and the one Chu Qing took merged with this one. After that, Xuan Lao threw the painting to Chu Qing casually, and he quickly reached out to catch it.

"The kendo of this painting is no longer of much use to me, so if you have the opportunity to gather the other four in the future, maybe it will be a great opportunity. This bronze mirror is a small soul storage mirror, and it is an attack spirit weapon. Now you see that the woman in the mirror is the one who enters the soul power into the mirror, and the holder can release the soul power in the mirror when it encounters danger, and this residual thought will become the same as its owner's battle, not only has part of its master's strength but also uses its master's skills. The strength of the soul power is determined by the master's cultivation, but a piece of soul storage realm can only bind one master, if the master is alive, it can be re-entered when it is used up, and if the master is not alive, this mirror will collapse when it is used up. After speaking, he also handed the bronze mirror back to Chu Qing, "I can't feel this wisp of consciousness ascending, presumably the woman in this mirror should have already fallen." I am afraid that the strength of this woman before her death surpassed the Nirvana realm, and now the strength of this consciousness in the mirror should also have the strength of the transformation realm, so you can keep it as a means to save your life. After finishing speaking, Xuan Lao forced out a drop of essence blood from Chu Qing's forehead, allowing Chu Qing to get in touch with this consciousness.

Chu Qing was not pretentious, and carefully put away the two things. After all, his strength is too weak now, and he needs some life-saving means. It's just that whenever I think that the woman in this mirror has already died, I feel a little uncomfortable, but fortunately, the connection is limited to controlling what it is out of the enemy, and there is no need to communicate at ordinary times.

"Elder Xuan, you see that my pocket is so small, I can't hold many life-saving things, can you think of a way for me to hide things with a wave of my hand like you?" Chu Qing touched his head and said embarrassedly.

Xuan Lao rolled his eyes, "I use space storage, this is not like cabbage everywhere! When you break through the Nirvana Realm, I will help you open one up, and below the Nirvana Realm, you can only use space bracelets and other external objects to store items." Don't talk to me about the idea of a space bracelet, it's too low-end, I haven't collected it. Also, the essence of cultivation is to improve one's own strength, and if you want to rely on external forces to save your life, it will not work in the end. ”

Chu Qing nodded, and at the same time was a little deflated, and thought silently in his heart: "It seems that I can only sew a few more pockets on my clothes in the future!"

"Okay, let's get to the point, should I refine the pill for your father first or prepare the medicine for your cultivation first?" Xuan Lao glanced at Chu Qing and said.

"Of course, I will refine the elixir for my father first, I'm not in a hurry, thank you, master. ”

"Alright then, let's start by refining the elixir for your father. ”

I saw Xuan Lao wave his hand casually, and dozens of medicinal herbs suddenly appeared in the air. In the next moment, a purple-gold flame came out of all the medicinal herbs, and as the burning progressed, the substances produced on the medicinal herbs fused in the air by themselves. It was the first time he had seen such a method of refining medicine, and he couldn't help but be amazed. After a few minutes of refining, a fragrance wafted out, and a pill of emerald green slowly formed in the air. Chu Qing stared at this elixir, his heart was extremely longing. If Xuan Lao hadn't deceived him, his father's life would have depended on this emerald green pill!

Xuan Lao stared at the pill, nodded his head, and seemed to be very satisfied! With a wave of his hand, the pill flew straight into Chu Qing's hand, and after Chu Qing received the pill, he couldn't wait to go down the mountain and run home to let his father eat it.

"Okay, the one thing I promised you is done, and the next thing is to prepare for your cultivation. Xuan Lao waved his hand again, and the space in the room was instantly densely filled with all kinds of medicinal materials, Chu Qing was so shocked that his jaw almost fell to the ground, he had to use so many medicines for his cultivation, he was not sure if he could digest it, if he didn't digest it, it would be embarrassing and sad.

This time was not like the last time, although each medicinal herb still emitted flames on its own, but it was not fused together, but all the combustion products were mixed into a wooden barrel filled with water, looking at the liquid in the red barrel, an ominous premonition surged into Chu Qing's heart.
