Chapter 42: Building the Foundation
"I don't know what is the important matter of Young Master Nangong who is so excited this time? Can you say it and see if you can help one or two. Shen An's face was slightly condensed, looking at the warriors around him who were full of evil energy, and said with a slight smile.
After all, this is the camp of the academy, and these people are so loud, the movement is not small, I am afraid that it will disturb the cultivation and trials of the disciples, and he is also a little disliked.
"Teacher Shen, thank you for your kindness, but we can handle it. This time, I passed through here on the mission, and I also came to see Nangong Bai by the way, and left after I had to deal with it. Nangong Bai smiled lightly and said.
"What task?" Nie Xuan asked curiously.
"Nie Xuan, are you also interested in the matter of my Dongyang Ling? But this has nothing to do with you. Behind Nangong Chen, Nangong Bai glanced at Nie Xuan and said in a cold tone.
Nangong Chen shook his head, sighed helplessly on his face, and said with a smile: "Actually, it's okay to talk about it." Our Dongyang Territory recently had a batch of important goods lost in transit, and according to the investigation, it was robbed by the "Iron and Stone Regiment", but although the Iron and Stone Regiment was later exterminated by us, it still let the head of the regiment, Xiong Dang, escape. ”
"That guy finally escaped to Aomine Mountain after us all the way, and we just wanted to capture him and ask about the whereabouts of that thing. ”
"Xiong Dang?"
Hearing this name, Shen An's brows couldn't help frowning, the iron and stone group Xiong Dang was on the southeast land, and he was also an extremely powerful character, and he didn't know how many lives he had killed in his hands. This kind of murderous mad demon who does not blink an eye, if he encounters those disciples in the mountains, it is a great danger.
Although there are many adventurers and caravans in the Qingfeng Mountain Range, most of them know the name of Tianhai Academy, and they often sell the academy's face, and they will not deliberately make things difficult for those disciples. This kind of murderer is different, as long as he is unhappy, or he is not pleasing to the eye, he will not hesitate to kill.
"I waited here this time, but I also want to remind you, you must pay attention, if you encounter that bear in the mountains, don't make a noise, and leave everything to me. After all, that guy is a real foundation builder. Nangong Chen chuckled.
"I will tell my disciples, and I hope you will arrest the murderer as soon as possible. Shen An nodded and said.
Nie Xuan, who was standing beside Shen An, was a little surprised when he heard this, he had also heard of the Iron and Stone Regiment Xiong Dang, which could be said to be famous and notorious. But Xiong Dang can become the head of the Iron and Stone Regiment, and naturally he is not a fool, how dare he easily attack the goods of Dongyang Ling?
You must know that Dongyang Ling, as the strongest force in the southeast land, is a behemoth-like existence for all the second-rate forces around it, and its deterrent power is extremely strong.
If anyone dares to provoke them, it will only end in destruction. Xiong Dang dared to risk the bloodbath of the Iron and Stone Regiment, and the things he wanted to rob must be unusual! Otherwise, Dongyang Ling would not be so angry, trying to arrest him in every possible way, Nie Xuan's eyes flickered, and he felt extremely curious in his heart.
"You're Nie Xuan, right? I know you. I heard that you have a good relationship with Ye Qian'er? Hehe, such a shameless woman has already dissolved the marriage contract with my Dongyang Ling, and she is a good match for you. Nangong Chen's gaze shifted to Nie Xuan, and he smiled faintly, the sarcasm in his voice was audible clearly.
"Is that so? That's Qian'er's luck. Nie Xuan smiled slightly, also not to be outdone.
"Ahem, Young Master Nangong, since you have just come to Qingfeng Mountain, it is better to rest in the camp for a night, and it is not too late to enter the mountain tomorrow, as for the vigil, it is up to your people to take responsibility. Seeing that the two of them were a little-for-tat when they first met, Shen An hurriedly made a round and said with a smile.
It's just that in his heart, he also has a much worse impression of Nangong Chen, after all, Nangong Chen is a round higher in terms of cultivation and seniority, and it is really unreasonable to make trouble for a junior.
"Thank you so much, as you should. Nangong Chen thanked him.
At that moment, Shen An nodded, and then took Nangong Chen and the others to arrange a place for them to stay, and Nie Xuan was also bored when he saw this, and planned to turn around and leave.
But just as he was about to leave, Nangong Bai suddenly said lightly: "I heard that Xue Tong and they suffered a big loss in your hands?"
Nie Xuan's little face turned to the side, his dark eyes glanced at him, and he smiled: "Tang Yong and the others should have been sent by you, right?" There are some means, but their level is too low, and if they want to deal with me, they will naturally cause trouble. I'll let them go this time, and I won't be so merciful next time. ”
When Nangong Bai heard this, his face suddenly became gloomy, and his eyes stared at Nie Xuan coldly.
"I underestimated you, but I didn't expect your strength to be good. If I have the opportunity in the future, I will personally ask for your cultivation and see how many catties you have, and I hope you will not let me down when the time comes. Nangong Bai smiled coldly, glanced at him deeply, and then said no more, turned around and walked away.
Hearing this, Nie Xuan couldn't help but pout, and turned around and walked towards the camp of the disciples in the inner courtyard. Su Yanluo saw that there were thorns in their words before and after, and snorted lightly, "Dongyang Ling, those guys, are too indifferent to others, and they always speak so domineeringly, as if others owe them." ”
What Nangong Chen and Nangong Bai said just now, she also listened to it on the side, and suddenly a trace of anger appeared on her beautiful cheeks.
"Anger is often a sign of incompetence. Nangong Chen's goods were robbed this time, and it is natural for them to be unhappy, so they don't need to be familiar with them. Nie Xuan patted the girl's fragrant shoulder and said with a smile.
"Well, we're not like them. With the help of the bauhinia flower this time, for laying the foundation of the physical body, the future cultivation will inevitably be smoother. Su Yanluo nodded heavily, smiling like a flower road.
"Let's practice well. ”
Nie Xuan smiled slightly, and then walked towards his tent, now there were still a large number of redbud flowers in his storage bag, about thirty or so.
Such a number of redbuds is enviable. Even a powerhouse like Shen An's life wheel could not completely ignore this, after all, the elixir was very precious.
Such adequate preparation could not only help Nie Xuan's physical body fuse with the bronze sap, but also enable him to lay a solid foundation, which would be of great benefit to his future cultivation.
Thinking of this, even Nie Xuan's always calm heart swelled with some strong excitement.
As the night deepened, darkness shrouded the area around Aomine Mountain, and the whole world seemed to be quiet at this time, and the hillside and the town in the distance were still brightly lit, but it was extremely lively.
Nie Xuan stayed in the tent, but he didn't go out again, but sat cross-legged on the mattress, his eyes closed, silently running the cultivation mantra of the Great Dao True Solution, and a faint aura light flickered on his body.
The aura in the surrounding air, like streams and small rivers, converged from all directions, and finally merged into his dantian with the boy's breath.
At the same time, the aura around Nie Xuan's body also became a little stronger.
This kind of quiet cultivation lasted for about half an hour, Nie Xuan slowly opened his eyes, and then took out a baby-like purple flower from the storage bag. Under the illumination of the moonstone beside him, the body of the redbud seemed to have a faint purple brilliance, shimmering slightly, and the fragrance was intoxicating.
The redbud flower was gently rhythmic, as if it had life, breathing slightly.
Smelling the fragrance of the flowers, Nie Xuan felt his tongue flutter, and then the spiritual energy in his palm gushed out, grabbed the bauhinia flower into his palm, and the fierce spiritual energy instantly shattered it.
After a while, in the bauhinia flower, which was originally like a baby, seemed to be completely annihilated, and in Nie Xuan's palm, only a palm-sized purple liquid was left floating quietly.
That's the bauhinia sap.
Bauhinia is a strange flower that has the effect of lifting the body, and its refining method is also unusual, requiring only a large amount of aura.
As soon as the purple liquid appeared, Nie Xuan's face showed joy, and he immediately shook his palm, and a white jade bottle appeared in his left hand, quietly filling it in.
In the following time, Nie Xuan concocted the same method, and continued to use the aura to refine the juice in the bauhinia flower, and in a short period of time, it was filled with more than a dozen jade bottles, but at this time, the aura in his body was also very consumed, so he had to meditate on his knees again, silently recovering the aura in his body.
The clock was ticking into the night......
After two hours of refining, Nie Xuan finally finished those redbuds completely, leaving only the rows of jade bottles in the storage bag, and the latter was also relieved.
"Next, it's time to try the effect of this bauhinia liquid. ”
Nie Xuan looked at the three jade bottles in front of him, with a shallow smile on his face, and was about to open one of the jade bottles, and when he felt the aroma coming, he poured it into his mouth. As soon as the purple liquid entered his mouth, there was a fragrant smell that spread in his mouth.
Immediately afterward, a pure and unique medicinal power seeped into all parts of the body like a stream of water, improving and strengthening the boy's body, and at the same time, it was fused with the bronze liquid.
The medicinal power of that purple liquid was so strong that it directly made Nie Xuan's muscles tremble slightly, and his lips were tightly pursed.
Feeling the gradual changes in his body, Nie Xuan did not sit and wait, but put his palms together, like a butterfly wearing flowers, quickly changing the strange handprint, and with the change of the handprint in front of him, the aura in his body quietly operated, gradually catalyzing and absorbing the purple liquid that seeped into his body.
At the same time, the teenager's body is gradually strengthening.
After a long time.
When the medicinal effect in his body gradually disappeared, Nie Xuan's mind moved, and he took out the second bottle and swallowed it, continuing to improve the strength of his physical body, then the third bottle, and the fourth bottle......
What he has to do this time is to build the foundation of the physical body and make the physical body strong.
In the blink of an eye, the night passed.
Nie Xuan had completely exhausted the thirty or so bottles of Bauhinia liquid, and at this time, his body, like a cicada in winter, sat cross-legged in the tent, gradually hibernating, waiting for the moment when he broke out of the cocoon and turned into a butterfly.
