The Taiqing Sect occupies an extremely wide area, and over the years, only a small part of the main peak of the Heavenly Dao Mountain has been opened up for cultivation and residence, and now the thirteen elders and sect masters in the Taiqing Sect live on one peak.

Tianxiao and Tianyao followed Master for a long time and came to a few small bamboo houses. The bamboo roofs are covered with thatch at the ends and are loosely built on wide platforms. Although this mountain peak is not the highest among the peaks of Tiandao Mountain, it is the most tranquil one. Behind the bamboo house is the high mountain tip, the top of the mountain is shrouded in clouds and mist, both illusory and real, ethereal. Near the side of the mountain is a large dense bamboo forest, and there is a small path next to the bamboo forest, which winds into the clouds and mist in the distance, and I don't know where it leads.

Yu Ruijiang stood in the courtyard surrounded by bamboo houses, turned his head sideways and said, "Tianxiao, Tianyao, from now on, you will cultivate hard in this Weikong Peak." The big bamboo house at the westernmost end is for the two of you. The first bamboo house in the east is the room for the teacher. To the west, there are two rooms for your senior brother and second senior sister. ”

Tianxiao Tianyao nodded, the environment here is quiet and comfortable, and the brothers are very satisfied with this place.

"Mingfei, Junhe, come out and meet the two junior brothers!" Yu Ruijiang shouted.

Two disciples, a man and a woman, walked out of the two bamboo huts. The male disciple was magnificent, with a resolute face, a crown on his head, and a tall figure, very chic. The female disciple wore a bun on the top of her head, which was simply fixed with a wooden hairpin, and the long hair under the bun hung down to her waist, her skin was very fair, her face was beautiful, and she was extremely elegant with Nana curling between her steps.

"These two are your third junior brother He Tianxiao and fourth junior brother He Tianyao, you have to get along well in the future. Yu Ruijiang always spoke in such a breezy tone.

The female disciple looked at Tianxiao and Tianyao, her eyes lit up, and she said with a smile: "Master is rare to accept apprentices, I didn't expect to accept two junior disciples at once, and I won't be too lonely in the future." I am your second senior sister, Tang Junhe. ”

The male disciple didn't have obvious joy, but said to Tang Junhe: "Senior sister, the two junior disciples are still young, in the future, you and I should urge them to cultivate hard and live up to the reputation of the master." Then, he said to Tianxiao and Tianyao: "Two junior brothers, I am your senior brother Han Mingfei. If you have any questions about your cultivation in the future, you don't have to trouble Master, just come and ask me. ”

"That's fine. Ming Fei, you have reached the realm of the late stage of the void and the underworld, and the two of them will be guided by you first. After that, Yu Ruijiang went back to the first bamboo house in Dongtou. He is in the late stage of annihilation, and it is the critical juncture to break through to the Mahayana realm. If it weren't for the annual gathering of disciples that all the elders had to attend, he would definitely still be in retreat and cultivation.

After seeing Yu Ruijiang enter the house, Tang Junhe said to Tianxiao and Tianyao: "Two junior brothers, don't worry. The elder brother looks old-fashioned, but he is actually a very good person. Back then, I had just been accepted as an apprentice by my master, and it was also my senior brother who guided me in my cultivation. If you can be favored by Master, your talent must be no different, right? I'll go back to the room first, and I can come to play with my sister when I have time. With that, she smiled brightly at the two of them and walked gently back into the house.

"Two junior brothers, let's go to the house and pack up our things first. I started practicing in the afternoon. Han Mingfei said.

"Yes, Senior Brother. Tianxiao and Tianyao glanced at each other, and Tianxiao said softly: "Brother Yao, our path of cultivating immortals has finally begun." Tianyao nodded: "Yes, it finally started......"

This bamboo house in Tianxiao and Tianyao is the largest in the bamboo garden, and the house is very spacious, but it is also very simple. There are two beds in each corner, and there is a small bamboo platform and two bamboo chairs in the middle of the room, and there is no other furniture.

The life of cultivating immortals is inherently hard, and it is a tempering of the mind. Although Tianxiao and Tianyao have a good family background, they are not greedy for luxury enjoyment. Just as Yundui taught them since childhood: "Only when you suffer hardship can you become a master." ”

In the early afternoon, senior brother Han Mingfei began to guide Tianxiao and Tianyao to cultivate. He told the two that they didn't need to use the fairy sword in the initial foundation building stage.

All the immortal cultivation swords in the Qinglong Continent are divided into three major parts according to the three levels of refining qi to return to the gods, refining the gods to return to the void, and refining the void to be true. Among them, the content of the foundation building of the first realm is all forging. The art of forging the body is much the same, it is nothing more than feeling the artistic conception of using the sword through basic movements, reaching the point of unity of man and sword. After reaching the realm of pure spirit, you can preliminarily comprehend the aura of heaven and earth according to what is written in the sword book. The Taiqing Sect is a large sect, and the immortal sword storage is still relatively sufficient. When the disciples succeed in building the foundation, they will all get a fairy sword given by the sect.

Han Mingfei split two six-foot-long bamboo poles from the bamboo forest and made them into bamboo swords for the two of them to use. Don't underestimate this Immortal Mountain Bamboo, the six-foot-long bamboo sword is much heavier than the Pei Min Sword and Tengma Sword of Yundui Villa, estimated to be about twenty-five catties. Fortunately, Tianxiao and Tianyao have already exercised, and the weight of twenty-five catties is not particularly heavy for them.

Tsukiji is the lowest of all realms, and it is also the one that exercises the most on the body. Only when you have a good body can you have the capital to cultivate immortals. After the realm cultivation is advanced in the later stage, the realm ascension mostly depends on the soul's perception of using the sword, and the cultivation cannot be improved by forging the body alone.

Tianxiao and Tianyao followed Deng Qiulin to learn the basic movements of the sword as early as when they were in Yundui Villa. Although Tianxiao learned to use a knife, he had a lot of sword movements, and with Tianxiao's ingenuity, it didn't take long for him to master the movements of using a sword. After teaching the basic movements, Han Mingfei instructed the two to practice until the sun set, and then went back to the bamboo house.

"I didn't expect to start cultivating immortals, and I still have to practice these things......" Tianxiao complained to Tianyao while practicing.

"Senior brother let us practice, it will definitely not be wrong. The sooner you succeed in building the foundation, you will be able to start cultivating the sword book. Tianyao's eyes were full of longing.

"Sword Book...... Hmm...... "Tianxiao listened to Tianyao's words and thought about it.

Tianyao also knew what his brother was thinking, it must be a matter of trying to pass on the sword after practicing the sword. But this thing that no one has ever succeeded, can Tianxiao do it? The more he thought about it, the more he felt slim, and Tianyao couldn't help but shake his head.

The two of them have been practicing with bamboo swords, hoping to complete the foundation building as soon as possible. Han Mingfei had already told the two of them before that he had cultivated by himself for twenty-two years, and now he was in the late stage of the Void Netherworld, and Tang Junhe had cultivated for sixteen years, and he was in the early stage of the Void Netherworld. It seems that the senior brother and sister are all geniuses, and their master, the seventh elder Yu Ruijiang, is also a genius in cultivating immortals, which invisibly puts a lot of pressure on Tianxiao and Tianyao.

Stress is also a motivator. The two of them did not get tired in the slightest, and did not rest until the sun was dark and they could not see the bamboo sword in their hands clearly. During this period, Han Mingfei once came out to see the two of them once, and he was deeply relieved to see the two junior brothers practicing so diligently.

The next day, Tianxiao and Tianyao still didn't see the master walk out of the bamboo house. It was the second senior sister Tang Junhe, who picked some fruits for the two of them for a while, and sat on the side with great interest to watch the two practice swords.

"Second Senior Sister, are you just looking at us here, don't you cultivate yourself? Look at the senior brother of the other people, while teaching us, don't forget to seize the time to cultivate. Compared to him, you're far behind!" said Tian Xiao laughed. Tang Junhe is so easy-going, Tianxiao and Tianyao are already familiar with her.

"Hmph, you stinky boy really have no conscience. If I go to cultivate, how can anyone send you fruits to eat?" Tang Junhe scolded with a smile.

"Uh...... I kindly remind you to beware of being reprimanded by Master for being lazy. "Tianxiao is pretending to be a good person there.

"Reprimand? Master, he won't. If you are lazy and don't cultivate, he won't care about you, but if you don't meet his expected cultivation requirements at that time, he will directly expel you from the sect and no longer recognize you as his disciple. ”

"Master is so strict? I really can't see it. Second Senior Sister, how do you see the two of us practicing?

"Not bad, isn't it? Keep up the good work! Senior sister is gone, and I will come back to see you tomorrow. "Tang Junhe loves these two little brothers very much. In the past, there were three masters and apprentices in this bamboo garden, the master was a big ice mound, and the senior brother was a big wood, and the three of them couldn't say a few words for a long time together. It's good now, with two lively and lovely junior brothers, Zhuyuan is also much more lively.

On the third day, Tianxiao and Tianyao no longer needed Han Mingfei's supervision, and the two got up early in the morning to practice swords in the courtyard. In the early morning bamboo garden, the fog has not yet dispersed, everywhere is wet, and the bamboo leaves of the bamboo forest are covered with dewdrops. The mountain air is at its freshest in the morning, and it's refreshing. Hearing the sound of the two brothers practicing their swords, Han Mingfei and Tang Junhe both walked out of the bamboo house.

Han Mingfei looked approving, and said to Tang Junhe: "Senior sister, although the third junior brother and the fourth junior brother are not very old, this diligence is admirable. That's more than you. ”

Tang Junhe pouted: "Senior brother, why don't you forget to ridicule me when you praise others?" I hope that the two junior brothers will not become cultivators like you and Master in the future." ”

Han Mingfei shook his head and smiled, looked at the two people practicing swords in the courtyard, and stopped talking.

"Senior brother, second senior sister morning!" Tianxiao and Tianyao greeted the two warmly.

"Two junior brothers early. "Good morning. Wake up early, tsk. The two also responded.

Suddenly, there was the sound of footsteps outside the bamboo garden. A person walked on the foggy mountain road, and when he got closer, it turned out to be the sect leader Li Yuanxiao. He was smiling, as if there was a great joy.

"Grandpa!" Tianxiao and Tianyao ran towards Li Yuanxiao together. Li Yuanxiao is the closest relative to the two, and after leaving his parents, Tianxiao and Tianyao feel very lost. Li Yuanxiao was also in the sect, which was a great comfort to the two.

"Tianxiao, Tianyao! I haven't come to see you in the past two days, are you still used to being here?" Li Yuanxiao hugged the two of them fondly.

Tianxiao replied, "It's pretty good here." Senior brother and sister are also very good to us. Tianyao next to him also looked at Li Yuanxiao and nodded vigorously.

"I've seen the Sect Master. The sect master came to me so early, but is there something?" Yu Ruijiang, who hadn't shown up for two days, finally came out of the bamboo house after hearing the sound.

"Well, something, it's a good thing!" After speaking, Li Yuanxiao took out a white jade square box from his arms.

Yu Ruijiang's eyes suddenly lit up: "Sect Master, that's ......"

The contents of the ordinary box are mostly likely to be pills. can be worthy of the white jade box of the elixir, the quality is definitely not second, Tianxiao and Tianyao are the grandsons of the sect master...... Yu Ruijiang had already vaguely guessed what was in the box.

Li Yuanxiao opened the white jade box, revealing two round crimson pills. The surface of the elixir is very smooth and has a slight aroma.

"Well, there are two Tsukidans here. It is prepared for Tianxiao and Tianyao. I just got back two dew blood plants yesterday, I refined them overnight in the pill room, and I failed to make one pill, but fortunately, the remaining one succeeded. plus the one refined a few years ago, it is exactly one grain per person. "It turned out that Li Yuanxiao had been alchemy all night and had never rested.

Yu Ruijiang showed a smile on his face: "It's hard work sect master." But if you use up both Tsukidans at once, don't the other elders have any objections?"

"Don't worry, I've already discussed it with other elders before alchemy. With the qualifications of the two of them, there is nothing wrong with using two Tsukidan pills at a time. Li Yuanxiao replied with a smile.

When the root bone was detected, Yu Ruijiang saw it with his own eyes twice in a row, and looked at the intensity of the purple light, which means that it is the best in the first-class qualification. Thinking of this, Yu Ruijiang was also relieved.

Han Mingfei and Tang Junhe were surprised on the side. When I saw that the master accepted Tianxiao and Tianyao as apprentices, I just guessed that the two of them had good bones, but I didn't expect it to be so good that the sect was willing to give two Zhuji Dan at a time, and one was refined by the sect master himself all night. I really don't have to say anything about this qualification.

"Tsk, it seems that the two little junior brothers are terrible...... It's a rare thing that they're still siblings. Tang Junhe admired in his heart.

"Listen to the two of you, the effect of Tsukidan is only to shorten the time of building the foundation, that is, to strengthen your physique, but it does not gain much to your soul. In the future, even if the foundation is successful, you must continue to work hard and do not disappoint the sect's expectations of you. Li Yuanxiao said to the two grandsons.

Tianxiao and Tianyao have understood from the dialogue between Li Yuanxiao and Yu Ruijiang how precious Zhuji Dan is. The two said that they would listen to Li Yuanxiao's teachings.

Li Yuanxiao immediately let Tianxiao and Tianyao take the crimson Tsukidan one by one. After Tsukidan enters the abdomen, it turns into a stream of heat, which travels all over the body, warming all the muscles and meridians of the body. The two of them felt the vigorous heat, and their bodies seemed to have increased their infinite strength, and they looked at each other with joyful expressions.

Li Yuanxiao nodded with satisfaction, said goodbye to everyone, and left.

Tianxiao and Tianyao didn't want to waste time, so they immediately picked up the bamboo sword on the ground and began to wield it. Now the feeling is different, the bamboo sword of more than twenty catties is like a straw in their hands.

"Senior brother, this bamboo sword feels too light now, and it's hard to use. Tianyao complained.

"Ming Fei, you go under the bed in my room and get two Xuantie heavy swords. Yu Ruijiang commanded.

Dark iron is a relatively common casting material in the Qinglong Continent. High hardness, large weight and low toughness. For ordinary martial arts practitioners, the heavy sword made of Xuantie is likely to be wielded. Yu Ruijiang also refined a few handfuls at will, but did not integrate the aura, so he was only regarded as a mortal product, which was specially used for the purpose of collecting disciples and building a foundation in the future. Originally, if you didn't take Tsukidan, you would have to practice the bamboo sword for at least half a year or so before you could make the Xuantie heavy sword.

After a while, Han Mingfei took out two identical black Xuantie swords from Yu Ruijiang's room, the sword body was very thick, and there were no blades on either side. It's not so much a sword as two big iron rods.

Tianxiao and Tianyao took the heavy sword, and they all exclaimed: "Oh my God, it's so heavy!"

"The dark iron heavy sword cast by the master is six feet long and weighs sixty-seven pounds. Han Mingfei said with a smile.

"Tianxiao, Tianyao, you two use this Xuantie heavy sword to cultivate well. Within half a year, the foundation was completed. Yu Ruijiang tepidly said the cultivation requirements.

"Yes, Master. The two responded in unison.

Han Mingfei and Tang Junhe glanced at each other, shocked in their hearts, it took almost two years for ordinary immortal cultivators to build a foundation. The disciples of the Taiqing Sect have excellent roots and bones, and they can shorten the foundation building time by a few months, but even if it is a first-class qualification, it will take a year and a half at the earliest, and counting the effect of building the foundation pill, it takes seven or eight months to take the least. Yu Ruijiang actually asked the two of them to build a foundation within half a year, which was too strict.

The completion of the foundation building means that you can initially appreciate the sword intent and feel the aura between heaven and earth. Appreciating the sword intent is not something that happens overnight, and it must be practiced diligently.

As time passed, the two of them became more and more proficient in swordsmanship, and they became more and more comfortable wielding the Xuantie heavy sword.

Time flies. One afternoon, more than three months later, the two were still practicing swords in the bamboo garden. Tianyao wielded the heavy sword, swinging faster and faster, feeling that the heavy sword was getting lighter and lighter, and the surrounding scenery became blurred, between heaven and earth, as if there was only one person and one sword. With the movement of his body, he seemed to be able to feel the movement of the air flow around him, and there were no distracting thoughts in his mind, and his mind was only on the sword in his hand. The wind moves with the sword, and the qi flows at will. The feeling of being in control of everything around you is really mysterious.

Tianxiao next to him also noticed the change in Tianyao, and his eyes suddenly lit up: "Could it be ...... Brother Yao is about to succeed in building the foundation?"

The heavy sword in Tianyao's hand seemed to have no weight, and it was waved lightly for a long time, and finally knocked it lightly on the ground, but it made a muffled sound of "tom", and a shallow pit appeared on the ground. He himself was pulled back from his selfless artistic conception by this muffled sound, as if he realized something, and his face was happy.

"Fourth Senior Brother, you have succeeded in building the foundation in just four months? This is really ......" Tang Junhe had already walked out of the bamboo hut when he heard the sound, and he was surprised that he didn't know what to say.

Yu Ruijiang and Han Mingfei also came to the courtyard.

"The foundation was completed in four months. It seems that I underestimated your abilities at the beginning. Yu Ruijiang was still moody, and his speech was still the same.

"That's genius...... The four junior brothers have all succeeded in building the foundation, and the third junior brother, you have to work harder. Han Mingfei encouraged Tianxiao.

In fact, Tianyao built the foundation so quickly, thanks to the seven years of training in the Cloud Twilight Mountain Villa. Tianyao uses a sword for two years longer than Tianxiao, and although his physical fitness is about the same, the sword and the sword are different weapons after all. Tianxiao understood the reason, but he was not too anxious. "Anyway, I'm already very skilled with the Darkiron Heavy Sword. Maybe the foundation will be completed in a few days. He thought to himself.

As he expected, on the third day after Tianyao built the foundation, Tianxiao also entered that wonderful state, and felt the hazy aura between heaven and earth.

Both of them completed the foundation building in four months, and even Yu Ruijiang, who was nicknamed the big ice lump by Tang Junhe, also showed a smile. Yu Ruijiang told the two that after the foundation building was completed, it was best to consolidate it for a period of time, feel more about the aura of heaven and earth, and make full preparations for cultivating the sword book in the future. He promised the two that a month later, he would begin to officially teach the two of them the Immortal Cultivation Sword Technique.

......

"It's time to go and ask for the fairy sword for the two little ones. For the two geniuses who completed the foundation building in four months, I want to see if the sect is generous. Yu Ruijiang thought as he walked towards the main hall.

The elders of the Taiqing Sect would meet in the main hall once a month on the first day of the new year, firstly to discuss the major affairs in the next sect, and secondly, to arrange future plans.

Today is the first day of the seventh month, and Yu Ruijiang wants to take advantage of the gathering of elders to ask for two fairy swords for Tianxiao and Tianyao. The Xuantie Heavy Sword mainly exercises strength, and after reaching the Spiritual Clearing Stage and realizing the aura of heaven and earth, the Xuantie Sword is useless.

Yu Ruijiang came to the door of the main hall, looked at the tall sword hall on the right, and said in his heart: "I don't know what kind of immortal sword ...... the sect will give these two geniuses who are rare in a hundred years" Thinking about it, he strode into the Hall of Morality.
