Chapter Twenty-Four: Breaking the Red Dust and Strengthening the Dao Heart

It's been three months since the end of the sect's big competition.

Cui Ning refused the celebration ceremony to be held for him on Tianhuan Island on the pretext of hitting the bottleneck of foundation building, and returned to the cave to continue his retreat.

At present, the number of Tsukidans in his hands has reached four, including one free share of the sect that he received from the Foreign Affairs Hall of Tianhuan Island.

So I was ready to take on the second three-year task, so that I could take the opportunity to pick back the Tianluo fruit that I had never forgotten before, so that everything was ready, and I could hit the bottleneck of foundation building with peace of mind.

In fact, there was nothing to prepare, so I went directly to the task hall and chose an inconspicuous and close to the destination of the sect mission.

Three days later, Cui Ning left the sect. This time, the mission was to give gifts to a cultivator family for a deacon of the foundation building period of the sect.

The patriarch of this Xiuxian family used to be a companion with this sect deacon, but because he failed to break through the foundation building period in the end, he returned to his hometown and established a Xiuxian family in despair.

It just so happened that the location of this family was the Yunduan Mountain Range, where Cui Ning had traveled.

And Cui Ning chose this task for another reason, that is, he planned to go home to see his father and mother.

Whether it is to cut off the red dust or miss his parents in this life, the Dade Dynasty has a reason why he has to go back.

******

Two days later, Cui Ning stopped in front of a mountain range.

Compared with the Western Regions of the Kaiyuan Continent, the area of the Eastern Regions is more than five times that of it, and in addition to the large cities with more populations, there are also many mountains with beautiful Zhong Lingyu.

In some places, there are few people, but there is often smoke, and there are some spiritual beasts infested, so there are also a lot of oral "immortal" legends.

The Yunduan Mountain Range in front of you is the most famous place of "fairy traces", and those legends are naturally not groundless.

There are often children of scattered cultivators or immortal cultivators who live in seclusion here, and the people who strayed into this place naturally mistook them for immortals.

On the east side of the Yunduan Mountain Range, Cui Ning was hovering in a mountain forest with a red gourd.

This red gourd is the magic weapon that Uncle Zhang Miao promised to give as an additional gift, but because Cui Ning wanted a flying magic weapon, he chose this one, and as for the reward magic weapon that ranked seventh in Dabi, Cui Ning didn't like it at all, and threw it directly into the storage bag.

At this time, there was a white mist lingering in front of Cui Ning, and this thing could actually isolate spiritual sense, but other than that, there was nothing special.

Cui Ning thought for a moment, and after making sure that the destination was correct, he took out a yellow talisman from his arms, which was a transmission note, which was handed to him by the uncle who issued the task in the pavilion along with the gift.

I saw Cui Ning inject spiritual power, and then threw it into the white mist below, as soon as this talisman came into contact with the white mist, it instantly burned, turning into a streamer and disappearing in the white mist.

About half a stick of incense, the fog gradually dissipated. There was a hearty laugh inside:

"Welcome to the master disciples of the Qingfeng Pavilion of the Great Sect of the East China Sea, who have traveled thousands of miles and come from afar, which really makes the humble house shine."

When the smoke cleared, the first old man in a purple costume strode out, followed by five or six men and women.

Seeing this, Cui Ning bowed and said, "Cui Ning, a Qi refining disciple of Qingfeng Pavilion, has seen Old Patriarch Wang. ”

"Oh, Daoist friends are too polite, after all, we all belong to the Qi refining period, and we can just intersect with each other. Xiao'er and Xue'er are coming to greet your Uncle Cui. ”

The old man obviously hadn't forgotten the rules of the immortal cultivation world, and hurriedly asked the two behind him to come out to meet Cui Ning.

"I've seen Uncle Cui."

Two crisp voices sounded, and Cui Ning looked at the man and woman who were saluting, and when he saw this face, it was estimated that he was the heir of the Wang patriarch.

"Patriarch Wang is too polite, I am also here for the task of the master. This is what Uncle Kang entrusted me to give you, you can take it. Cui Ning handed over a porcelain vase in his arms to the Wang patriarch.

"Hey, Lao Kang has needed a lot of resources for cultivation over the years, and he even gave some to me ......"

The patriarch surnamed Wang took the porcelain vase tremblingly and sighed sadly.

And the young woman named Xue'er kept staring at Cui Ning with curious eyes, wondering why such a young person could be as powerful as her father's cultivation.

Cui Ning had never been stared at like this by a woman, and she became embarrassed.

He used his spiritual sense to gently sweep over the woman and the man who had just saluted, only to see the spiritual energy floating in the woman's body, and it was estimated that she had already cultivated in the middle stage of qi refining, but the other young man only had a trace of spiritual power in his body, and it seemed that he might have just stepped into this immortal cultivation.

So he touched his nose, and after thinking for a while, he took out a few magic weapons from the storage bag, and said to the patriarch surnamed Wang, who was still sad:

"Patriarch Wang, I see that Miss Guigongzi has a trace of spiritual power in her body, and it is estimated that she has already stepped into the immortal path. It just so happened that I had a few magic weapons here that didn't fit, so I gave them them, which can be regarded as a meeting gift for the two teachers and nephews. ”

"This, how can this make ah......" Patriarch Wang was a little surprised when he saw this.

"Thank you, Uncle Cui. Dad, this was given by Uncle Cui, you can't take it. Before Patriarch Wang finished speaking, the magic weapon was taken from Cui Ning's hand by the girl and played with it in her hand.

"Cui Daoyou, I'm smiling." Old Patriarch Wang looked at the young girl and apologized to Cui Ning, but he couldn't hide the spoiling in his eyes.

Then the old patriarch Wang invited Cui Ning to enter the Wang family's cultivation place, and the two chatted while drinking tea.

The main thing is that the Wang patriarch said, Cui Ning listened, and occasionally expressed some opinions, which provoked the Wang patriarch to praise him.

And the young girl also listened with relish, only occasionally glancing at Cui Ning with something else in her eyes.

Two days later, Cui Ning submitted his resignation, claiming that there were other sect tasks to be completed, and it was inconvenient to delay. Seeing this, the old patriarch Wang couldn't keep it anymore, and the young girl who came out to see him off seemed to want to say something, but in the end she didn't speak.

Cui Ning summoned the flying hoist, chose a direction and flew directly, and soon disappeared.

"Dad, do you think Uncle Cui will come back?" The young woman stared into the distance and muttered.

Wang Lao looked at his daughter's expression, how could he not understand his daughter's thoughts, but finally sighed:

"Xue'er, you and that Cui Daoyou are not from the same world, forget about him!"

******

Cui Ningyu quickly came to the capital of the Dade Dynasty with the flying gourd, and now it has been changed to the capital of Ningcheng.

For the enthusiasm of the old patriarch Wang and the girl's eyes, Cui Ning naturally understood what it meant. He is not a hairy boy who has just come out of the mountains and forests, he has experienced many things in his previous life.

And now for him, cultivating immortals and immortality is the ultimate goal, and only if he is strong can he protect the person he wants to protect. Not to mention that the shadow on the Eagle Peak had already been imprinted in his sea of knowledge.

Ningcheng, the capital of the Dade Dynasty, Cui Ning walked in the city, only to see people coming and going on the city road, all kinds of shouting, buying and selling, cheering, and the nearby inns and shops were hung with red lanterns, and everyone's face was beaming.

Cui Ning is a little strange, today is not a festival, why are the lanterns hung up, is it a victory in the foreign war?

Seeing that the people in the city were living and working in peace and contentment, Cui Ning smiled, and then used the escape method to go directly to the palace.

The palace was also full of joy, everywhere was lit up, and the faces of every guard and maidservant were filled with joy, Cui Ning used his spiritual sense as soon as his heart moved, wanting to hear what they were saying, but what he heard made Cui Ning surprised and delighted.

It turned out that today, the queen of the Daedok Dynasty successfully gave birth to an heir, who was still a boy, so the dynasty declared the whole country happy.

"I have a younger brother!" Cui Ning was secretly excited, and then hid her figure and followed the maidservants to the queen's hall.

I saw that there were many people in the hall, and many people were looking at the queen who had just given birth.

"Thank you!"

The great German monarch Cui Xiong sat on the edge of the bed and looked at the queen lying on the bed, gently held his wife's hand, and said apologetically.

"It's not hard at all, it's better to ask the king to give me a name." A weak but gentle voice came from the bed.

"This time you come to pick it up, I'll listen to you." Choi Woong rejected the queen's offer and encouraged him instead.

"Then the concubine took it, a single word "An", okay? ”

The queen's voice soon came out, as if she had been thinking about the name for a long time.

"An An! Tranquility, tranquility, nice, nice......"

The maidservants outside the door also heard the voices in the temple and discussed in whispers. The monarch seemed to like the queen's name, but it was strange why the monarch's voice was visibly choked up when he said that he was peaceful.

Not far from the main hall, listening to the voices coming from the hall and the discussion of the maidservants, Cui Ning's eyes slowly added a layer of mist.

He didn't show up, but just used the magic technique to gently place a jade pendant with "warding off evil spirits" on the side of the newborn baby, and there was a freshly engraved "An" word on the jade pendant.

When he had done all this, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed deeply to the main hall. Then he walked out of the palace with a firm gaze, and after leaving Ningcheng, he picked up the gourd and flew directly towards the East China Sea.
