Seeing the mess on the martial arts training ground, Li Yichen also had a wry smile on his face. I have the heart to clean up the gravel and fallen leaves on the ground, but I have the heart to be powerless. The sword just now exhausted the strength of his whole body, and now Li Yichen doesn't even have the strength to raise his hand, let alone stand up and clean up these rubbles.

Lying on the ground, Li Yichen raised his head, squinted his eyes and looked at the sky, the sun was hanging high in the sky, at this time it was the time before it passed, and it was the hottest time of the day. But in this early spring afternoon, the sunlight emitted by the sun overhead did not bring people a scorching feeling at all, and under the blowing of the spring breeze, the whole person felt warm and drowsy. On the big tree overhead, some small shoots had grown on the top branches, and a little grass had quietly poked its head out of the stone crevices on the side of the martial arts training ground, and the whole world seemed to be full of vitality.

On this warm lunch, the spring breeze caressed his face, and the exhausted Li Yichen lay on the stone slab, feeling a sense of harmony.

Forcibly enduring the sleepiness caused by spring sleepiness, Li Yichen, who had recovered a little bit of physical strength, sat up from the ground, sat cross-legged, and began to meditate.

One week, one week, Li Yichen in cultivation didn't feel the passage of time at all, and he kept circulating the true qi in his body twelve times before he opened his eyes.

From Li Yichen's open eyes, it can be seen that those eyes exude a surprise light and also reveal a trace of confusion.

At the moment when he had just finished his work, Li Yichen found that the true qi had filled the entire dantian, and after the true qi in the dantian had been exhausted this time, although the amount of true qi cultivated by reabsorbing the essence qi of heaven and earth had not increased, it had become more condensed.

In the past, the true qi in the body was like a stream of air, which could not be seen or touched at all, but now the true qi in the dantian showed a feeling of liquefaction, like a thick dense fog gathered in the dantian. If you continue to condense it, it may not be long before the true qi in the dantian will appear like water droplets, and finally form a stream of true qi liquid.

The appearance of this situation made Li Yichen feel very pleasantly surprised, which also meant that after the true qi in his body was condensed, the power would be even more amazing, and the dantian would also be able to hold a larger amount of true qi, so that when he duel with the other party, he could perform more moves with a relatively large consumption of true qi.

If it weren't for the feeling that the Yin Yang Sword instantly brought all the true qi in his body just now, Li Yichen would still feel palpitations, and he would still be thinking about whether he could use that sword often, drain all the true qi in his body a few more times, and then hurry up to cultivate to see if he could accelerate the condensation speed of the true qi in his body.

Although the true qi in his body was quickly condensed, which made Li Yichen's heart feel happy, but just now in the process of exercising, Li Yichen also found that the "Five Elements Foundation" mental method that he had been cultivating was no longer too suitable for his own cultivation, and he would always feel a little awkward in the process of cultivation. Although in the end, the true qi in the body was still able to run smoothly for a week, but the speed of the entire cultivation was much slower, and the spirit had to be highly concentrated, and if there was a slight relaxation, the true qi in the body might run wildly. In the past twelve weeks, Li Yichen felt that his body was comfortable, as if he had inexhaustible strength, but his consciousness was extremely tired, and he actually felt dizzy in his mind, which was even more tiring than fighting with others for several hours.

"It seems that I have to take advantage of the past few months to look in the academy to see if I can find a mental method suitable for my cultivation. ”

Li Yichen had already made up his mind that in June, when the various sects and schools were recruiting new disciples, he would definitely leave Tangjiang Academy at that time, so Li Yichen stayed in Tangjiang, and the time he stayed in the academy was only a few short months.

After finishing the work, Li Yichen did not stand up immediately, but closed his eyes again, did not look like anything, sat there cross-legged and closed his eyes to recuperate, and let his whole head rest.

"It's getting dark, so I'm going to have to clean it up. came back early today, and didn't tell Li Xinyuan, she will definitely be called for a while later. ”

After the headache was relieved, Li Yichen opened his eyes and saw that the sun had set behind the mountain, the night began to envelop the entire Tangjiang River, and the faint smell of stir-fried vegetables wafted in the distance, and the people in the town began to prepare to sit around the table for today's dinner.

Quickly picked up the broom resting on the edge of the martial arts training ground, and after sweeping the broken stones and fallen branches and leaves in the martial arts training ground into a pile, Li Yichen left the martial arts training ground and prepared to go back to his room to clean himself up before appearing in front of his family.

"Brother, when did you come back? Why didn't you call me?"

As soon as Li Yichen walked out of the backyard, before he came to the main hall, he was seen by Li Xinyuan, who was standing in the main hall, calling him loudly, and didn't call himself when he blamed his brother for going home.

"I came back very early today for some things, and I came back in a hurry, so I didn't bother to talk to you, I'm really sorry. I'll go back to my room and come out in a moment. ”

Li Yichen hurriedly explained to Li Yichen, and thought about walking back to the room quickly, and deliberately walked to a dim place when passing through the main hall, because Li Yichen was worried that his embarrassed appearance would cause his family to worry.

"Brother, what were you doing in the backyard just now, why are you so dirty?"

Soon, Li Yichen's worries became a reality, perhaps because of Li Yichen's sneaky appearance aroused Li Xinyuan's curiosity, and walked a few steps in the direction of Li Yichen, through the light coming from the main hall, the sharp-eyed Li Xinyuan still found that Li Yichen's body was covered with dust.

"Oh, it's nothing, I just came back and slept on the floor in the backyard for a while, so I got all my clothes dirty. ”

In a hurry, Li Yichen didn't have much to explain, so he made up a reason in the hope of prevaricating Li Xinyuan.

"Fell asleep directly on the ground? Brother, why is your face so bad, and your expression is so tired, is there anything uncomfortable? It can't be sick, right? Grandpa, grandma! Brother seems to be sick!"

Li Xinyuan, who was still wondering how her brother could run to the ground in the backyard and fell asleep, suddenly saw Li Yichen's face was pale and his expression was unusually tired, and he was in a hurry, so he shouted loudly.

"Yichen, what's wrong with you?"

"Chen'er, what's wrong with you? Tell grandma quickly. ”

"Chen'er, is the meridian hurting again? Don't worry, grandpa will call you a doctor right away. ”

After hearing Li Xinyuan's shout, the whole family rushed out from all over the place, gathered around Li Yichen, and asked nonsense.

As soon as Li Xinyuan's words fell, Li Yichen saw his grandfather walking out quickly from the main hall with flower scissors, and when his grandmother appeared in front of him, he was still holding a spatula for stir-frying, and the clothes in his aunt's hand were still dripping.

"Grandpa, grandma, uncle, aunt, I'm really fine, I'm going to be fine. I'll go back to my room and change my clothes, and I'll be out right away. ”

Feeling the love and care of his family, Li Yichen felt that his eyes were hot and his heart was warm. After a hurried explanation, Li Yichen walked back to his room quickly, Li Yichen was worried that if he stayed any longer, the tears in his eyes would flow uncontrollably.

"Chen'er, are you really okay?"

When Li Yichen went back to the room to wash his face, changed the dirty clothes on his body, and came to the dining room, Li Quansheng asked with concern after seeing Li Yichen for the first time.

"Grandpa, I'm really fine, I'm fine, I'm just feeling a little tired just now, just need to have a good rest. ”

Looking at the inquiring eyes of the family members around him, Li Yichen told his grandfather in a firm tone that he was not in any problem at all, but he was just a little tired.

"It's okay, since you're tired, then go back to your room early to rest after you've eaten." ”

After scrubbing the dust on his face, Li Yichen's spirit was much better than just now, Li Quansheng carefully looked at Li Yichen and found that the other party did not look like he was sick, so he was also relieved.

The family sat together, and when Li Quansheng raised his chopsticks and picked up the dishes in front of him, it also meant that tonight's dinner officially began.

At the dinner table, Li Quansheng briefly asked a few words about Li Gan's business, Li Yichen's physical condition, and Li Xinyuan's cultivation, and it can be said that the family completed today's dinner in a happy atmosphere.

Maybe he was too tired today, Li Yichen fell asleep after returning to his room after eating dinner and saying goodbye to his family.

Early the next morning, before the time had passed, Li Yichen opened his eyes and woke up from his sleep. Maybe it was because after a night of adequate sleep and sufficient rest for his body and mind, Li Yichen woke up and found that his mental condition was surprisingly good, it can be said that he was refreshed, and he felt that his head was turning much faster than before.

After washing up, Li Yichen walked to the backyard as usual and began his cultivation.

Maybe it was because of the abundance of true qi in his body, Li Yichen still felt a little unsatisfied after playing the Five Elements Boxing for nearly an hour as usual, and after looking at the sky, Li Yichen still gave up the temptation to continue boxing.

When the bell sounded in the distance, Li Yichen was awakened from his state of steady. Li Yichen found that the speed of operating the true qi in his body according to the Five Elements Mental Method was indeed much slower than before. Originally, the True Qi in the body had been running for twelve weeks after cultivating for so long, and now this True Qi had only completed nine cycles in the body.

Perhaps because today's cultivation time was not as long as yesterday's, Li Yichen did not find that his divine sense was tired after receiving his exercises, and he was completely able to continue cultivating.

"Li Xinyuan will definitely get up too, I'd better go to the academy early to see if I can find a new mental method to replace these five elements mental method. ”

Seeing that the hour was not early, Li Yichen decided to go to the academy with Li Xinyuan first. (To be continued.) )
