During the period of Ling's sleep, Li Yuan continued to study the method of restoring the Yuan Bone taught by Ling.

In fact, the dragon bone in Li Yuanlong's body did not disappear, but was sealed by an extremely domineering backbone.

This kind of backbone is very powerful, if it weren't for Li Yuan's devouring backbone, I'm afraid it would be difficult to solve.

He devoured the power of that backbone little by little every day, and gradually lifted the seal.

The cultivation of the Yuan who sealed the Xuanlong Bone was much higher than that of Li Yuan, so this process could not be rushed, and it had to be done slowly.

But he was confident that as long as he persisted, he should be able to lift the seal and let Li Yuanlong start cultivating again.

………

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, Li Yuan has spent two years in Fujiki Village.

In the past two years, he has always unremittingly devoured the power that sealed the Xuanlong bone in Li Yuanlong's body, and finally completely eliminated it.

A year ago, Li Yuanlong was able to feel the flow of heaven and earth vitality again and began to cultivate.

As an alchemist, Li Yuan naturally did not skimp on the elixir and yuan stone in cultivation.

He did everything he could, providing Li Yuanlong with sufficient cultivation resources, and even engraved a Yuan Pattern Array for him that could improve his cultivation as a bottleneck.

With the financial support of Li Yuan's strong net worth, Li Yuanlong's cultivation continued to rise, and his old appearance gradually regained his youth.

Whenever he saw his gradually younger face, Li Yuanlong's heart was full of gratitude and joy.

When the sealing power of the Xuanlong bone was completely cleared, Li Yuanlong's cultivation was restored to the Yuanli realm.

His life span was greatly extended, reaching one hundred and thirty or forty years.

Now he is no longer the old man, but a charming middle-aged man.

In the past two years, Li Yuanlong has experienced the process from despair to rebirth, and his heart is full of gratitude to Li Yuan.

And Li Yuan was also glad that he was able to help Li Yuanlong.

The friendship between them has become deeper and deeper in the past two years.

Another few months had passed, and Li Yuanlong's cultivation had steadily reached the middle stage of the Yuan Force Realm, and his heart was full of desire for a higher realm.

He looked forward to one day breaking through to Nirvana.

For him, this request is not excessive.

With the innate Xuan Dragon Bone, it is not difficult for him to ascend his cultivation to the Nirvana realm.

He hopes that after reaching Nirvana, he can return to his family with a young appearance and visit his parents after a long absence.

The road after Nirvana, he knew that he needed to rely on his own efforts to pave it.

The level of the Yuan Bone is important, but it only determines the upper limit of the Yuan Cultivator's cultivation.

No matter how high the level of the Yuan Bone is, it will only provide a stable cultivation foundation for the Yuan Person, who can reach the Nirvana Realm.

The real breakthrough and growth still require the efforts of the meta person itself.

The Yuan Bone level is like the cornerstone of a high mountain, and the improvement of cultivation is the climbing of this high mountain.

No matter how solid the foundation is, without the tenacity and perseverance of the climbers, it is impossible to reach the peak of the mountain.

Therefore, he was determined to climb that cultivation peak that belonged to him.

"Brother Yuanlong, have you ever made waves in your heart, stepping on the Tianyun Sect and competing with Ruan Ningmeng?"

Li Yuan suddenly asked in a relaxed small talk.

When Li Yuanlong heard the name Ruan Ningmeng, a trace of complicated emotions flashed in his eyes, he was slightly stunned, and then shook his head slightly: "Forget it, that kind of challenge is too empty." ”

As if he was not satisfied with such an answer, Li Yuan further asked: "Then have you ever had the slightest idea of embracing Ruan Ningmeng into your arms and becoming your wife?" ”

When Li Yuanlong heard this, he looked up at the boundless blue sky, and there seemed to be a deep memory circulating in his eyes.

He spoke slowly, with a hint of sadness in his voice: "We are nothing but a marriage between families.

"What's more, I haven't seen her since I was ten years old.

"Therefore, there has never been a relationship between a man and a woman."

He paused, then continued, "Now, the gap between me and her is like a moat.

"In just a few years, even if I evolve the Xuan Bone into the Earth Bone, it will be difficult for me to catch up with her."

When Li Yuan heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, and he didn't seem to agree with Li Yuanlong's opinion: "Is it really impossible to catch up?" ”

"It's almost impossible." Li Yuanlong waved his hand, with a bit of helplessness and bitterness in his voice.

He closed his eyes slightly, as if he was recalling those legends about the Water Cloud Peak of the Tianyun Sect:

"As far as I know, the previous Young Masters, even those with slightly inferior talents, have at least reached the mid-stage cultivation of the Yuan Shen Realm, or even the peak of the mid-stage, at the age of seventy.

"And there are even those who are extremely talented, who have already broken through to the late stage of the Yuan Shen Realm and become the real Heavenly King.

"This kind of cultivation generally serves as a Dharma protector in the Tianyun Sect."

Li Yuan listened, and couldn't help but smack his tongue in his heart.

His current cultivation has not even stepped into the Yuan Shen Realm, and compared to those young masters, it is simply a world of difference.

"In the late stage of the Yuan Shen Realm, the Heavenly King ......" Li Yuan sighed softly, his heart full of yearning.

In the Qinggu Continent, that kind of cultivation is definitely a super powerhouse, the top existence on the continent.

It's just that I didn't expect that here, even if it is the Heavenly King, it is just a small protector of the Tianyun Sect.

However, he believes that it will not be long before he can stand at that height.

"Ruan Ningmeng, how is your cultivation now?"

After a while, Li Yuan came back from his contemplation and couldn't help but ask.

Li Yuanlong sighed lightly when he heard this, and his eyes revealed a trace of helplessness and emotion: "I have been here for more than 50 years, and I am almost isolated from the outside world, and I really know very little about her situation. ”

He paused, as if trying to recall the information from the past, and then continued, "She can be valued by the Peak Lord, she has extraordinary talent, and she has an innate top-level Xuan Bone.

"With her qualifications, at the age of sixty-eight, she should at least be in the middle of the Yuan Shen Realm......

Li Yuan listened, and couldn't help but feel an inexplicable emotion in his heart.

He suddenly thought of something, his eyes flashed, and he asked, "Then her master, how is her cultivation?" ”

Li Yuanlong thought back for a moment and said, "I remember that before the Jiazi years, her master was already a cultivator at the peak of the early stage of the Transformation Realm.

"Now that so many years have passed, we should have already broken through that barrier and stepped into the middle stage of the Transformation Realm, maybe even higher."

After Li Yuan listened, his heart sank.

Ruan Ningmeng's master actually reached such a realm, which gave him a deeper understanding of Ruan Ningmeng's strength.

If you want to catch up in just a few years, Li Yuanlong is really impossible.

Li Yuanlong smiled lightly, with a hint of freedom and helplessness in his smile, reached into his arms, and slowly took out a jade ring.

The jade ring is translucent throughout, with fine lines engraved on the surface, exuding a faint luster, which is obviously a token that has been inherited for countless years.

"This jade ring was given to me by my father when he announced that I had become the young head of the family.

"It is not only a status symbol, but also an honor for the Li family."

Li Yuanlong's voice was low and powerful, as if he was reminiscing about the past days.

A trace of complicated emotions flashed in his eyes, and he continued: "When I left Longyang City, my father did not take back this jade ring, perhaps because he still has an expectation and reluctance. ”

"On the way to Qingwei City, I dreamed that one day I would be able to return to the Li family in Longyang with this jade ring and bring glory to my family.

"Now it seems that this wish is no longer possible.

"If you have the opportunity to go to Longyang City in the future, please give this jade ring to my father Li Lieyang."

Li Yuan didn't go to take the jade ring, he understood what Li Yuanlong meant, and he also felt the helplessness in the other party's heart.

"Brother Yuanlong, you are only three years older than me, and if you reach it in the future, you can also return to the Li clan in Longyang and take over the position of head of the family." Li Yuan comforted.

Li Yuanlong shook his head and said, "I will go back, but only as a son, to visit my father and mother."

"As for the position of the head of the family, if I don't go to the Tianyun Sect, it means giving up the inheritance of the position of the head of the family.

"If I want the Li clan in Longyang to prosper, I must enter the Transformation Pattern Realm.

"If I can really go that far, I will become the ancestor of the Li family."

Li Yuan thought about it too.

Entering the Transformation Pattern Realm not only means having a 3,000-year-old lifespan, but also means becoming the guardian of the family.

For Li Yuanlong, being able to protect the family for thousands of years as the ancestor of the Li family is undoubtedly more noble than the position of the head of the family.

Li Yuan nodded, took the jade ring, and said in a firm and powerful voice: "In the future, when I leave the Wenmang Mountain Range, I will definitely send the jade ring to the Li clan in Longyang by hand before the appointment between you and Ruan Ningmeng, to ensure that it will not bring any unnecessary trouble to your family." ”

The Yuanyu ring exuded a faint warm glow, and Li Yuan clenched it, as if holding Li Yuanlong's trust and expectations.

"Thank you." Li Yuanlong said gratefully, "I went to cultivate." ”

He turned and walked away.

Looking at the back of the village chief who was gradually moving away, Li Yuan could feel the strong emotions in Li Yuanlong's heart of missing his parents and longing for reunion, which was Li Yuanlong's perception of his life as a mortal.

If it had been more than 50 years, Li Yuanlong would still be the Tianjiao of the Li family in Longyang, and he would definitely not have such a strong family affection.

Thinking far away, Li Yuan couldn't help but think of his father and aunt.

Their figures gradually became clear in his mind.

Li Yuan didn't know what their cultivation was at the moment.

If my father and aunt can't enter the Yuan Shen Realm, I won't have much to live for, and I am afraid that I won't see each other.

With his thoughts retracted, Li Yuan took a deep breath and suppressed the emotions in his heart.

………

It's dark at night.

The sky was shrouded in a thick darkness, as if a huge curtain enveloped the whole world.

Towering mountain peaks stand one after another, they are like giants, and they are magnificent.

In the dark mountains, only Fujiki Village is a place of tranquility.

From a distance, a huge vine snaked and hovering like a dragon, and Fujiki Village sat quietly in the embrace of the vine.

It seems to be isolated from the outside world, becoming a world of its own, and the atmosphere of peace and tranquility permeates it, becoming a rare pure land in the Wenmang Mountains.

At the top of the vine, Li Yuan sat cross-legged, his eyes deep and bright, as if he was thinking about something important.

He planned to leave when the spirit awoke.

How to get out of this vast mountain range is a difficult problem at the moment.

It is nearly 10 million miles away from the edge of the mountains.

This is undoubtedly a huge challenge for him now.

Although his cultivation had made great progress, it was still extremely difficult to cross such a long distance alone.

Therefore, Li Yuan must find a strong man to shelter and use the strength of the other party to help him leave.

The idea gradually became clear in his mind, and he began to think about how to find such a strong man and cooperate with him.

Li Yuan fell into deep thought, and his gaze unconsciously fell on the huge giant vine.

He asked coldly, "Can't you really leave here?" ”

The voice echoed in the silence of the night, as if talking to itself.

He didn't really expect an answer, because in the past two years, he had never seen any reaction from this giant vine, and had always quietly sheltered Fujiki Village.

However, not long after his words fell, a transmission of soul power suddenly poured into his mind:

"You should also be able to investigate very clearly, my range of activities is only within a radius of thirty miles."

Li Yuan was startled, his eyes widened, and he stared at the giant heavenly vine in disbelief.

His heart was beating faster, as if an electric current was flowing through his body.

"You're finally talking." There was a hint of excitement and joy in Li Yuan's voice.

Emperor Fuji's voice sounded in Li Yuan's heart, with a hint of helplessness: "You use your soul power to probe me every day, and you don't need to probe tomorrow." ”

Li Yuan smiled faintly, he understood that his previous actions might be a little offensive, but this was also his habit out of curiosity and caution.

He reined in his thoughts and asked instead, "Do you have any powerful treasure to help me get out of the Wenmang Mountains?" ”

Fuji Huang was silent for a moment, and then replied, "No."

"It's not hard to get you out of the Range, though, but you'll need to try your luck."

"Luck?" Li Yuan was stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect Emperor Fuji to give such an answer.

The voice of the vine emperor echoed in Li Yuan's heart, explaining the help he could provide:

"If you're lucky, a few fifth-level peak demon beasts pass by, I can catch them and let them escort you out of this mountain range."

After Li Yuan heard this, he couldn't help but feel a heartfelt admiration in his heart.

However, the voice of the vine emperor sounded again, with a hint of warning: "But such an escort is not necessarily safe.

"There are many fifth-level demon beasts in the Wenmang Mountain Range, and the captured demon beasts may not be able to escort you out of this mountain range."

Li Yuan knew that it was indeed difficult to guarantee his absolute safety with a few fifth-level peak demon beasts in such a vast mountain range.

Looking up at the quiet giant vine, a question welled up in his heart: "Why are you willing to help me?" ”

The vine emperor was silent for a moment, as if he was remembering something, and slowly spoke: "Two years ago, when you were teleported here, the teleportation channel that was opened was difficult to do without the Transformation Pattern Realm.

"Therefore, I hope that after you leave, let the forces behind you help me get out of trouble."

When Li Yuan heard this, he smiled bitterly in his heart.

Where is there any force behind him, opening that teleportation channel is already something that the spirit can only do with all his might.

"You're a half-step Life Spirit Realm cultivator?" He asked cautiously.

Emperor Fuji replied, "I have reached the peak of the half-step life spirit realm. ”

Hearing this, Li Yuan couldn't help but gasp in his heart.

He originally guessed that the Vine Emperor might be a half-step life spirit realm, but he didn't expect that he had already reached the peak.
