Chapter 9: Apprenticeship

Retracting his thoughts, the old man looked at Ling Qingchen again, this scene at this time was somewhat similar to that time, maybe this was the will of heaven.

"Have you really decided to worship me as a teacher?"

The old man looked at Ling Qingchen and asked.

"Well, really!"

Ling Qingchen did not hesitate.

"To be my apprentice, you must go through unimaginable tribulations, and you may lose your life at any time on this road, are you willing to do it?"

The old man said again.

"Yes."

Ling Qingchen still did not hesitate.

The old man couldn't help but look sideways, he realized at a young age that there is a price to be paid for seeking strength, including life, and only fearlessness can go all the way along the way.

"In a few years, you need to do something for me."

The old man frowned slightly, and then spoke.

"As long as it doesn't violate morality, as long as I can do it!"

Xiao Ling Qingchen responded after only a little thought.

The old man looked at Ling Qingchen and was also a little amused

"Why don't you ask me what's the matter?"

"I believe that the master will not harm me!"

Ling Qingchen's words made the old man speechless, this kid trusted him so much, at this moment, he didn't know if taking him as an apprentice would hurt him, and he didn't know if Ling Qingchen could bring him that pitiful hope.

But the seven or eight-year-old boy in front of him, at such a young age, showed such an extraordinary heart and will, and really amazed him, this is the quality of the strong in his opinion, this is the solid pillar of his strong road in the future, the will does not fall, the heart does not change, can move forward, not afraid of hardships.

The old man is also gambling, this road is bumpy, countless people have fallen in the chase and battle again and again, and Ling Qingchen may not be able to reach the height he expects.

For him, Ling Qingchen is a new hope in so many years of chaos, and he is not willing to continue to stay in a world without light, he wants to fight, and he wants to fight again.

"Fellow Daoists outside, you can go, don't worry, since he has been accepted as a disciple, he will naturally be fine with me." The old man's eyes did not raise his voice.

These words made Ling Qingchen feel shocked, and then he also understood that there should be a strong family member who was secretly protecting him.

Sure enough, as soon as the old man's words fell, the void on the side outside the hall fluctuated faintly, revealing a figure shrouded in a wide black robe.

Now that he has been discovered, there is naturally no need for him to continue hiding. The black-robed man arched his hand in the direction of the old man, and the eyes hidden in the darkness glanced deeply at the old man before retreating.

Ling Qingchen was very curious, what made him a little strange was that he had never seen this person in the Ling family, it seemed that there were still many secrets in the family, and even these core children of them were not qualified to know before they grew up.

"How?"

"What's the doubt about this, which family in this world doesn't have any hidden power? You don't understand now just because you haven't reached the height of family recognition. ”

The old man seemed to see that he had doubts, and said slowly.

Ling Qingchen just felt a little surprised, after all, as the younger generation of the family, he didn't even know the details of the family, which really made people feel depressed.

Seeing that Ling Qingchen was silent, the old man spoke again

"However, there is one thing that can still tell you, that is, as far as this Lost Continent is concerned, your Ling family is still not simple."

"The Lost Continent?"

Ling Qingchen was puzzled.

"Well, your continent is a lost continent, as for the details, you will know when you reach the strength you should have in the future, but this is also a secret, and most people don't know about it."

The old man continued to explain.

Ling Qingchen also knew that he was not qualified to know these things now, and he was not bothering about them.

"What are you doing in a daze? You haven't done this apprenticeship yet! The old man exhaled suddenly.

Ling Qingchen kowtowed three times, and this apprenticeship was completed.

has already worshiped the master, Ling Qingchen naturally did not want to let the master live in this shabby temple that did not avoid the cold and heat, so he welcomed the old man to the Ling Mansion, and the old man did not refuse.

After all, Lingfu is also a rich and noble family, there is not much but there are many other courtyards, and the old man has arranged a good yard, with all kinds of daily necessities, and the old man also looks around with a smile, Xu has been wandering for many years, eating and sleeping in the mountains, and rarely sees these rich and novel places.

……

Today, the old man changed into a refreshing plain robe, but he has a bit of a master's dusty temperament, but that extraordinarily old appearance makes Ling Qingchen not confident, which master will be such a down-and-out look?

In particular, shouldn't the superior regard money as dung and not cause mundane things? After coming into contact in the past few days, Ling Qingchen really didn't feel that this master looked like a master, and he was reluctant to wear even the clothes of good materials that he had bought for him, and he carefully collected them, and now he is wearing a plain robe and a long shirt that can no longer be ordinary.

"Master, can you really start refining your body and refining your soul in the innate stage? And does the refining body you said really have to be like this? ”

Ling Qingchen sat cross-legged at the head of the bed naked, his little face was a little pale and he wanted to make a final confirmation.

Since listening to Master's cultivation method, Ling Qingchen was a little incredulous, Master said that the Innate Realm could directly start refining the body realm and the soul quenching realm, and the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi refining and soul quenching realm, but the method of refining the body and quenching the soul in advance had long been lost in this continent.

And there is no harm in this kind of refining the body and quenching the soul in advance, and there are great benefits, you can step into the body refining and quenching soul realm in the future without a trace of stagnation, and it will be completely natural, the old man said that this kind of cultivation is the best foundation in cultivation, and it will be of great benefit to the future cultivation road, only by laying a good foundation, can you reach a higher realm in the future.

"Hey, are you kid doubting my words? Alas, it's really cold in the world! I think I was also famous back then......"

The old man sighed when he heard Ling Qingchen's questioning.

"Master, stop, stop! I believe you can't do it yet! ”

Ling Qingchen hurriedly interrupted when he saw that the old man was about to talk about his glorious past again, these days the old man was talking in his ear every day, he was really tired of hearing it, but he also knew many useful things from it, such as the old man's name is Ye Qingcheng, he is a very powerful alchemist, and he is also a refiner, he is not a person from this heavenly spirit realm, and he fell into this realm for some reason, but for some reason, he refused to tell Ling Qingchen, he only said that he would know later, and Ling Qingchen would not ask more.

"Hmph, this is about the same, it seems that in the future, I still have to teach you to respect the teacher, don't question the master's words casually!"

Ye Qingzhen rolled his eyes.

"Ready? I'm going to get started. ”

"Well, that's it!"

Ling Qingchen thought that he would let the fire of heaven and earth in his master's hand enter his body later, so he couldn't help but shudder, gritted his teeth and replied.

Without saying anything more, Ye Qingjian's expression began to become serious, if he wanted to use the fire of heaven and earth to enter his body, his mind could be highly nervous, and he could not tolerate the slightest mistake, and if he was not careful, Ling Qingchen would be burned into ashes by the scorching temperature of the fire of heaven and earth.

Ling Qingchen reined in his mind and channeled the aura of heaven and earth to refine his body and soul according to the method taught by Ye Qingchen.

With the aura pouring from the top of his head, there was not much pain, Ling Qingchen only felt that some muscles were sore all over his body, and his soul was a little cold but very comfortable.

At the same time, a scorching flame also poured into the body from the dantian, and then it slowly passed through the meridians.

At the dantian time, he didn't feel it, but when the flames entered the fragile meridians, Ling Qingchen was suddenly scorched and snorted, and the severe pain hit him one after another, making his whole body tremble.

"Keep your mind, continue to guide the aura, and don't be distracted, otherwise you will fall short!"

At this moment, Ye Qingjian's voice came into the depths of his soul.

Ling Qingchen hurriedly put away his distracting thoughts and continued to guide the aura of heaven and earth, with the washing of the aura of heaven and earth, he finally felt better, the flowing aura not only washed away the impurities in his body, but also healed those meridians that were scorched by the flames.

For half an hour, Ling Qingchen was in this difficult tempering, from the initial pain to the gradual numbness of his body later, even the soul that didn't feel anything at the beginning was washed away for a long time and became dizzy.

The so-called droplet stone is highlighted vividly at this time, and the soul is insensible for a short time, but it can't bear it for a long time.

With the completion of the refining of the meridians and soul of the whole body, Ling Qingchen finally passed out without being able to bear it anymore.

Ye Qingchen also breathed a sigh of relief, withdrew the orange-yellow flame, picked up the unconscious Ling Qingchen, and gently soaked him in the bath bucket that had been prepared in the house.

The hot water has been placed for half an hour, and the current water temperature is just right after trying it with your hands, and there are many precious medicinal materials in the water, all of which are used to restore body injuries and soul overdraft.

After a while, Ling Qingchen's body began to unconsciously absorb the medicinal power in the water, and seeing this scene, Ye Qingchen also began to sit on the chair next to him and close his eyes to cultivate the soul power that had just been lost.

Although he used to be a very high master, but now, he has long since cultivated to no more, and his soul has been hit hard, and he doesn't know what year and month he will have to wait until he can recover again, as for cultivation, he has not asked for more luxury, after all, with his realm knowledge, he has never heard of any method or strange magic that can repair the destroyed dantian golden pill, and it should be like this in this life.

Thinking of this, Ye Qingchen couldn't help but sigh a little in his heart, opened his eyes and glanced at Ling Qingchen who was soaked in the water, then sighed lightly and closed his eyes.

On the second day, Ling Qingchen woke up from a coma, only to feel that the thoughts in his mind were extremely clear, and his body seemed to be much more solid than his previous thin appearance.

Although the change did not seem to be much, he felt that the strength was much greater than before, which made him very happy.

"Alright, quickly dry yourself and put on your clothes!"

Ling Qingchen recovered from his excitement, only to find that an old man next to him was staring at him with a look of disgust as he had never seen the world......
