In the evening, a gentle breeze blows across the lake, causing the otherwise calm surface of the lake to begin to ripple in circles, slowly but surely rippling in all directions. The unknown fish in the lake jumped in the wind, racing one after the other, one after another. The scales of the fish with water appear to be golden and dazzling in the light of the setting sun. Their movements are extremely skillful, and at a glance you can see that they are the result of repeated practice day after day. Even so, they are also the slightest bit sluggish because of the repetition of this monotonous action day after day, on the contrary, they still complete this action meticulously again and again, faintly making people feel the slightest feeling of "carp jumping over the dragon gate".

The name of this lake is said to be troubleless, which means no trouble. It is said that the name of the lake is due to the miraculous effect of the lake - whenever anyone who has troubles comes here and looks at the lake in a calm state, they can naturally forget all the troubles in their hearts.

Qi Yi had heard countless similar information about these things, and he often came here to wander and sit when he had nothing to do, but Rao was like this, and he couldn't conclude whether the rumors about the Lake of No Annoyance were true, because he had never watched this lake in a state of contemplation, not that he himself didn't want to, but with his current cultivation realm, it was impossible to achieve contemplation, let alone watching this lake in a state of contemplation. Even so, this does not affect his liking to come here from time to time to hang out and sit on something to do, in fact, to put it bluntly, he just likes the scenery here and has an attitude of appreciation. As for whether you can see the lake in a calm state, it doesn't really matter, or you can't do it.

At this time, although Qi Yi's bright eyes were looking directly at the Wuxing Lake, his mind was not at all looking at the beautiful scenery of the Wuxing Lake, but in his mind he was thinking about the spiritual awakening ceremony that would be carried out tomorrow. As soon as he thought of matters related to the Spiritual Awakening Ritual, he inevitably had mixed feelings in his heart, and it was very unpleasant. This is all because he has already experienced two failed spiritual awakenings. When the first spiritual awakening failed, he just thought that it was because his cultivation was not enough, and the realm had not yet arrived, so he didn't think too much about it. In the days that followed, he continued to practice hard every day, waiting for the next spiritual awakening. But when the next spiritual awakening really came, he was grief-stricken in his heart. He never imagined that the awakening of the spirit that he had been waiting for for a year would be such a result - the failure of the spirit awakening.

As for the trivial matters related to Qi Yi's two awakenings, we still need to start from the beginning two years ago. I still remember that it was a night two years ago, and the moon and stars were sparse, giving people a quiet and peaceful feeling. However, the people in the brightly lit Qijia Fort did not feel this way. At this time, they are making the final preparations for the upcoming Awakening Ceremony tomorrow, and they all seem to be very busy. In stark contrast to the busy state of the crowd are the old and the young in the side hall. The old man is Qi Tian, the current patriarch of the Qi family, and the young man is Qi Tian's grandson, named Qi Yi. At this moment, the old and the young seem to be chatting about family life.

Grandpa Qi said with concern: "Yi'er, tomorrow is the day when the Spiritual Awakening Ceremony in the family begins, you should go back and rest early!

Remember, first of all, you must raise your spirit and spirit, after all, it is related to the success of your spiritual awakening, although the impact is not great, but you have to pay attention to it. As for the rest of his, they are all secondary. But don't be careless, because that's what you've been fighting for for years! But don't put too much pressure on yourself, it's time to do your best, you just need to keep a calm mind. ”

Qi Yibi replied respectfully: "Okay, thank you grandpa for your concern." Rest assured, grandpa, I will do my best······ Grandpa, do you have anything else to do? If not, then I'll go down first. ”

Qi Tian thought for a moment and said, "Well, it's gone." You go down first. ”

After getting his grandfather's negative answer, Qi Yixuan turned around and walked towards the place where he lived. There was not much time, and Qi Yi returned to his residence. After a while, Qi Yi muttered in a low voice, "It's still a little early, why don't I cultivate for a while, and then go to sleep after a while!"

After finishing speaking, Qi Yidang casually sat down cross-legged and began to cultivate. Soon Qi Yi entered the state of cultivation, as the cultivation progressed slowly, a trace of spiritual energy entered the meridians through the skin, and then gathered in the elixir in the lower abdomen along the eight veins of the strange meridians in the body, and then slowly condensed the spiritual energy into spiritual power in the elixir······

Time flies, like flowing water is gone. After a long time, Qi Yi finished his cultivation, and then after a simple tidying up, he began to fall asleep. But soon after he closed his eyes and fell asleep, his mind couldn't help but fantasize about the scenes of tomorrow's spiritual awakening ceremony. I saw him tossing and turning in bed, unable to sleep for a long time. He slept on weekdays, but he unexpectedly lost sleep tonight.

Despite the night's insomnia, Qi Yi woke up early the next morning. It's just because he desperately wants to know what the result of his spiritual awakening will be, and at the same time, this spiritual awakening is also the goal he has been fighting for for nearly five years.

At the spirit awakening ceremony, Qi Yi seemed to be waiting anxiously as if he was spending days like a year. When Qi Yi felt as if he had spent a century, it was finally his turn to awaken the spirit. At this moment, the one who was awakening for him was Qi Tian, the patriarch of the Qi family.

Qi Tian asked, "Yi'er, are you ready?"

Qi Yi replied, "Yes, Grandpa, I'm ready." ”

Qi Tian said: "Well, that's good, then let's start the spirit awakening now!"

Qi Yi nodded slightly and said, "Okay, there is Grandpa Lao." ”

When Qi Yi's words had just fallen, Qi Tian began to move in his hands.

Spiritual awakening is to use a huge spiritual force to break a thin membrane outside the elixir, so that the practitioner's own spiritual power can be fused with his own spiritual elixir, thus forming a spiritual induction, which is the process of spiritual awakening. The elixir is condensed by the cultivator who has not yet become a spiritual inducer by storing a large amount of spiritual energy.

At this time, Qi Yi could clearly feel that there was a large amount of gravitational spiritual power entering and exiting his body. When a large amount of gravitational spiritual power entered his body, Xuan even began to swim along the seven meridians and eight veins in his body. When this large amount of gravitational spiritual power traveled in his body, he felt that there was an indescribable beauty in his whole body, as if every cell in his body was cheering and jumping, but this beautiful time did not last long before it ended. At the end of the moment, Qi Yi seemed to hear someone in his mind sigh softly, but before Qi Yi could think about it, he was interrupted by his grandfather's voice.

Qi Tian said expressionlessly: "Qi Yi, the awakening of the spirit has failed, you can come back next year!"

Qi Yi nodded a little twilight and said, "Hmm······ Good. ”

After a while, the elder of the Qi family said aloud to everyone: "Next, Qi Kun." ”

······

······

Time flies, and another year has passed. This year's spiritual awakening ceremony is about to start again, and Qi Yi's heart is a little apprehensive and uneasy. From last year's failure to induce the awakening to this year, Qi Yi has been cultivating extremely hard every day. Not for anything else, just to be able to successfully awaken and no longer let others see their jokes.

On the Yanwu Square, there are crowds of people.

The elder of the Qi family said aloud to everyone: "Next, Qi Yi." ”

As soon as Qi Yi heard the elder read his name, he immediately began to walk towards the stage. It's just that when he walked towards the stage, he could clearly see Qi Yi's hands trembling slightly due to intense tension, revealing his inner emotions.

Qi Tian asked, "Yi'er, are you ready?"

Qi Yi replied respectfully, "Well, grandpa, I'm ready." ”

Qi Tian smiled and said, "Well, take it easy, I'm going to start." ”

Qi Yi said happily: "Well, okay, there is Grandpa Lao." ”

This year's process of spiritual awakening is roughly the same as last year's spiritual awakening process, but this year someone seems to have sighed softly in Qi Yi's mind, as if this time's voice is clearer than last year's voice. It was still at the moment when this sigh sounded, and before Qi Yi could calm down and think carefully, he was interrupted by his grandfather's voice again.

Qi Tian said expressionlessly: "Qi Yi, the awakening of the spirit has failed." ”

When Qi Yi heard his grandfather's voice, he froze in place for a few seconds before he walked off the stage like a walking corpse. He heard that his grandfather's voice when he spoke this time was a little different from last year's voice, that year's grandfather's voice was full of encouragement, but this year's grandfather's voice was vaguely revealing a little disappointed.

After experiencing two failed attempts to induce spiritual awakening, Qi Yi cultivated as if he was desperate every time. In addition to eating and sleeping every day, the only thing left is to cultivate, and even many times, he often forgets to eat and sleep, and only when he is extremely hungry and tired will he squeeze out a little time to eat and sleep, and then continue to cultivate.

He persevered for a year until today, and his perseverance and perseverance are far beyond his peers.

This afternoon, it was rare for him not to cultivate. It's not that he doesn't want to cultivate anymore, but his grandfather forced him to come out and adjust his emotions and prepare to accept the spiritual awakening that will take place tomorrow.

Qi Tian said with a pleasant face: "Yi'er, don't practice this afternoon." You go outside, adjust your emotions, and get ready for tomorrow's Spiritual Awakening Ritual. ”

Qi Yi responded: "No, grandpa, I still want to practice a little more." ”

Qi Tian suddenly said with a straight face: "Yi'er, don't you even listen to grandpa?"

Qi Yi looked at his grandfather with a straight face, he didn't want to upset his grandfather, so he had to bow to his grandfather a little helplessly and responded: "Okay! Grandpa, I'll go out." ”

Qi Tian smiled and said, "Well, let's go!" After saying that, Qi Yi nodded slightly, then turned around and left.
