Chapter Seventy-Three: Three Years

Winter goes to spring, time flies, cultivation has no years, and three years have passed in a flash.

In the east, which is thousands of miles away from the Dragon's Sect, there is a huge imperial city, this imperial city is hundreds of miles wide, the prosperity here is abnormal, the buildings are clustered, grand and sacred, to say that the most exquisite buildings here, the most extensive area is not the imperial palace, but a sword sect in the east of the city, pavilions and pavilions in the courtyard, Huge palaces abound, from the entrance of the Sword Sect to the back of the Sword Sect, you need to ride a horse on its main road for half a day to arrive, the Sword Sect is divided into the outer sword courtyard and the inner sword pavilion, it is the world's famous place for sword cultivation to gather, it has a name in the world--- Ten Step Courtyard, and it is also one of the giant sects of the Four Mountains Immortal Gate in the Barren Moon Continent.

At this time, in a huge palace in the Ten Steps Temple, three people were sitting together. A middle-aged monk in a green shirt, a young monk, and an elderly Taoist priest in a purple robe, each of them faintly exudes a strong momentum, and they are still three Jindan overhaulers.

The middle-aged green-shirted monk, about forty years old, with a square face and sword eyebrows, a righteous body, with a slight fluctuation of sharp sword qi on his body, sitting on the top, it was actually a late Jindan cultivator, he said, "I didn't expect that it was Master Yiye and Hanglin Immortal Elder who came to this academy, but it surprised me a little, hehe"

When the young monk heard this, he clasped his hands together and nodded slightly, "The Pure Land Sect has seen the Xiaquan Sword King." "The monk's face is like pure water, his eyebrows are clear, his eyes are black and white, his body is medium, he is wearing a cyan robe, he is already a mid-Jindan cultivator, but sitting at that time, he is like an ordinary temple monk in the mortal world, and his demeanor is modest and gentle.

Seeing this, the old Taoist priest also bowed with one hand, "Xiaquan Sword King, your courtyard is actually brought forward by your inner sword, it can be seen that you attach great importance to this matter, the Taixuan Sect sent poor Dao to assist the Ten Step Courtyard and the Pure Land Sect, but there are orders, and you must fully cooperate." The old Taoist priest was thin and thin, with extremely smooth crane hair, faintly glowing with silver light, and he pulled a Dao on the top of his head, his face was ruddy, and his small eyes were shining, which looked a little sleek, and he was also a late Jindan cultivator.

After hearing this, Master Ye just bowed his head slightly, recited the Buddha's name, and did not say much.

The middle-aged green-shirted monk of the Ten Steps Academy smiled slightly when he heard this, and said in his heart, "The Taixuan Sect sent you here just to get more oil and water, and no one knows your treacherous color." As a famous Taoist family, I didn't have the slightest clean and arrogant style, and I said that I would help and cooperate fully, because I was afraid that after the incident, if I was held accountable in the future, it would be the responsibility of my Ten Step Courtyard and the Pure Land Sect. ”

The Xiaquan Sword King thought of this in his heart, but he smiled in his mouth, "There is one branch inside and outside my sect, regardless of strength and weakness, I will come over, it's just that the other senior brothers have something to do." Hanglin Immortal Chang is modest in saying this, the three sects let you and I discuss this matter, of course, it represents the meaning of the three sects, next year is the fifteen-year period of seeking and picking, but since ancient times, the Dragon Spirit Sect has always used various evil sects and poison techniques to take the lead, not only the small half of the resources were taken up by him, but also the elite disciples of our foundation building period have also fallen a lot. ”

Seeing the middle-aged green-shirted monk say this, the thin Taoist priest's expression was solemn, "What the Xiaquan Sword King said is extremely true, the Dragon's Spirit Sect relies on the special exercises, and does not spare any hands on my three sects, which makes the foundation building elites of the Ten Step Courtyard and the Pure Land Sect painstakingly cultivated a lot, and my Taixuan Dao Sect only likes the Lotus Platform Pure Fight because of the exercises, and often four or five times out of ten they fall into the trap they ambush, and there are heavy casualties, this kind of behavior is really despicable." ”

When the middle-aged Confucian student heard this, he disdained in his heart, "Are you too metaphysical and Taoist cultivation to be above board, is it that our sword gate and Buddhism gate will not be on the stage, and the immortal cultivation world will not use these to fool people, which one is a righteous man and a gentleman." ”

At this time, the Yiye monk clasped his hands and said, "Amitabha, it is my Buddha's duty to eliminate demons and defend the way." ”

The middle-aged green-shirted monk nodded with a smile, "Then the remaining year, we should start ...... like this" said this, only to see his mouth move slightly, but he could no longer hear the slightest sound, in the backyard of this forbidden Ten Step Courtyard, he was so careful, and used the method of transmitting sound into the secret.

The monk listened to it together, and at the same time, he also used the method of sound transmission to discuss.

............

Li Yan opened his eyes from his cultivation, and the essence in his eyes burst out, in the past three years, he has practiced hard day and night, and the exercises have reached the seventh layer of the Qi Condensation Period, and the progress is really fast, most of the results here are the special exercises of the Decanter Water Sutra, and the resources provided by the sect have also benefited him a lot, and there are five more low-level spirit stones and two bottles of "Ascension Spirit Pill" every month than the disciples of the outer sect of the same level It also gave him a lot of assistance, not to mention the spirit stone, whenever he practiced the immortal, he quickly used the spirit stone to make up for the loss of spiritual power, which greatly reduced the time for meditation and practice to recover.

The Ascension Pill is to swallow one pill before cultivating the Decane Water Sutra every time, which can make his spiritual power purify a lot in a week, which makes the effect of the original two weeks can be achieved in one week, which is quite an increase in efficacy.

In terms of immortal arts, the "Fire Bomb Technique" and "Wind Blade Technique" have reached the late stage of Xiaocheng, the "Quicksand Technique" has been practiced to the end of the Xiaocheng Dynasty, and the "Cloud and Rain Technique" and the newly learned "Wind Binding Technique" and "Sky Fighting Technique" have also been practiced to the middle stage of Xiaocheng.

He has already skillfully used each of the twelve bodies, but if it is said to be a combination, he can also simply combine two or three.

After Li Yan finished his cultivation, he didn't get up, he was still sitting cross-legged, his divine sense looked inside, the five spiritual power cylinders in the Dantian Purple Mansion had increased by five or six times compared to three years ago, and at present, the spiritual qi in the three spiritual power cylinders of water, wood, and fire was circulating, and these spiritual qi had become a semi-water vapor state, and after the final full liquid state, the foundation could be successfully built. And the earth and gold two spiritual power cylinders were still empty, and he was already at the mid-level of the seventh layer of the condensation stage.

Looking at the spiritual power in the state of water and gas, Li Yan's heart moved, the spiritual power of the five elements operated, and the spiritual power in the first three cylinders began to restrain each other, and slowly injected into the two mouths of earth and gold, this kind of infusion is not a natural generation of spiritual power in cultivation, but a forced generation, the purpose is to reduce the highest water spiritual power and change into other attributes.

After a while, the aura on Li Yan's body had changed from the middle of the seventh layer of the Qi Condensation Period to the early stage of the sixth layer of the Qi Condensation Period, which was exactly the concealment cultivation method of the Deshui Sutra, this concealment method was not a simple equalization of spiritual power, so that the sum of spiritual power could still be seen in the eyes of high-level immortal cultivators, and after the spiritual power of the Decishui True Sutra was restricted, it could only reveal the part of itself that was revealed.

Li Yan is very satisfied with this concealment effect, he is not the kind of person who likes to be in the limelight, although he has the assistance of the sect's resources, but with his Miscellaneous Spirit Root qualifications, it is already the limit to be able to break through the fourth level in three years, not to mention that he is already in the middle of the seventh layer of Qi Condensation, if he is not afraid that he will hide too much and be seen by the master, he wants to suppress it to the early stage of the fifth layer of the Qi Condensation Period.

Over the years, he also occasionally went to the main hall to participate in Xiao Zhufeng's deliberations, after all, there were only a few people in Xiao Zhufeng, after he tried to conceal his cultivation, including the senior brother in the later stage of foundation building, there was no reaction at all, but the fat master looked at Li Yan and said, "Your spiritual power foundation is still very good, much deeper than the same level", which made Li Yan feel that his concealment exercises had a feeling of being recognized, but after several tests, he felt that when he tried his best to hide, it was completely okay to hide from a monk who was a big realm higher than himself. If the other party is higher than his own two great realms, unless he can't suppress it too ruthlessly, which can cause the other party's spiritual power to be deeper, otherwise it will be self-defeating and exposed. As for the Yuan Infant Ancestor, he estimated that there was no possibility that he would hide it at all with his current cultivation, but even if it was as big as the Dragon Spirit Sect, there were only a few Yuan Infant Ancestors, and it was common for him not to show up for hundreds of years, who would care about his little disciple.

Li Yan looked at the spiritual power fluctuations on his body, he was very satisfied, and then released his divine sense, which instantly penetrated the cultivation room, and then reached the courtyard wall, and finally penetrated into the formation. In the past few years, in addition to cultivating exercises and immortal arts, Li Yan has been extremely attentive to the fragmented poisonous body, while groping for the effect of the twelve fragmented toxins, while enduring the inhuman pain of splitting the head, and using his divine sense to stimulate those fragmented poisonous bodies every day, so that the twelve fragmented toxins have two faintly split, and it is estimated that the other fragments will be separated in a few months. Another advantage is that his divine consciousness is now comparable to that of a monk of the tenth layer of the Great Perfection in the condensation period, and he has reached thirty or forty zhang away from his body, and now the bamboo courtyard protective formation can no longer bounce off his divine consciousness, and his divine consciousness can invade the formation by about a foot, which he checked a lot of classics before he basically determined the strength of his divine consciousness.

Li Yan retracted his senses, stood up, straightened his clothes, pushed the door and walked out. Yesterday's waist card information shows that "the disciples in the peak need to go to the main hall tomorrow morning to discuss matters" Li Yan now knows that there are too few people in a mountain peak, and there are also disadvantages of few people, that is, when there is something in the sect, like the other four peaks, only some of the main personnel can participate, and it is okay to arrange relevant matters after going back. However, although most of Xiao Zhufeng's affairs can be handled by the senior brothers and sisters, there are still many things that need to be attended by all members, unless it is a critical juncture in the retreat. Li Yan didn't need to go to this matter today, every time he went to this kind of discussion, he would also observe one or two, and if he had to be listed, the information would be directly indicated.

It is estimated that only Li Yan is truly qualified to participate in the affairs of the sect when he reaches the foundation building period, but today he has something to ask his senior brother. The reason is that he doesn't have enough spirit stones, although some sects have tilted some resources towards him in the past few years, after all, his qualifications are like that, so he is not vigorously cultivating. With the improvement of his cultivation, eight spirit stones and two bottles of spirit pill in a month can no longer meet his cultivation needs, and the spirit pill is only enough for him to take for half a month before it will be used up, and the spirit stone is also used tightly. Of course, there is no need for these, with the help of this Xiao Zhufeng's rich aura and the Decanter Water True Scripture, he can also cultivate unimpeded, but once a person gets used to a certain cultivation speed, it is extremely uncomfortable to let him slow down.

Therefore, Li Yan had to consider the source of the spirit stone, and with the spirit stone, it was okay to use it for cultivation or to purchase additional spirit pills. Otherwise, if he wants to wait for the sect to replenish more resources again, he must reach the tenth layer of the condensation period and the foundation building period. The tenth-layer sect in the condensation period will increase the resource subsidy again, mainly to make him have a better chance of succeeding in building the foundation, and when he reaches the foundation building period, it will automatically increase the resources to the equivalent realm, so that he has to find his own way, Li Yan now also knows that like other ordinary disciples, he has long been looking for cultivation resources independently, unlike himself who has the sect to take care of.

Li Yan walked on the path to the main hall, thinking about his own affairs, walking slowly, thinking of the past few years, when it came to the night of the full moon at the end of the year, the tall girl who would always sneak to the platform, although there was never an agreement, but the party that arrived first always stood on the huge full moon and waited quietly, and then the two sat on the edge of the platform, and there was no one who seemed to talk to themselves, until dawn, they left, but this Zhao Min never said much about herself, most of them were Li Yan talking, she was listening.

Thinking of this, Li Yan's smile became brighter and brighter, and after a while, he came to the door of the main hall, and he also stepped in without stopping.

"The little junior brother is here, hey, I haven't seen you for half a year, the little junior brother's skills are more and more profound, this should be the sixth layer of the condensation period. As soon as Li Yan entered the house, a joyful voice sounded.

Li Yan smiled slightly, listening to this voice, it was Lin Daqiao, the seventh senior brother who got along with him very well.

Li Yan glanced at the house, and there were already ten people in the house at this time, seven men and three women, and the master and the lady had not yet arrived.

Of the ten, seven were sitting, and three were standing or walking pouring tea. Li Yan knew these people, and the seven people sitting there were five senior brothers and two beautiful senior sisters.

Senior brother Li Wuyi is still as handsome and sunny as ever, looking at Li Yan with a gentle smile, the momentum on his body is becoming more and more condensed, it is already a fake pill realm, and he is just a little bit away from condensing the golden pill.

Under his head, he was a bear-like figure, looking at Li Yan with a big grin, it was the second senior brother Wei Chituo, seeing him like this, Li Yan couldn't help but be speechless for a while, he was very afraid to see this second senior brother, who was already a master in the late stage of foundation building, either pulling the competition, or enthusiastically patting him on the shoulder a few times with the thick hand like a bear's paw, every time he made his teeth cracked, and his mouth kept snorting.

However, I heard that the second senior brother, the fourth senior sister, and the fifth senior brother have also entered the inner gate one after another in recent years.
