Half a month passed in a flash, and for the monks, they didn't feel the passage of time at all.

Maybe a retreat will have been twenty or thirty years by the time it comes out again.

The same was true for Chen Xuan, who was currently in the room, at this time, he slowly opened his eyes, felt the feeling of spiritual power coming from all over his body, and his face showed joy.

During the half month of his healing, because he felt the loosening of the realm, he hurriedly absorbed spiritual power and tried to break through.

What he didn't expect was that it was not as difficult as he imagined, and he broke through to the middle stage of foundation building smoothly.

At this time, he had just broken through, and although the injuries on his body had healed, his realm had not yet stabilized.

I don't know how long it has passed, and now Chen Xuan is worried about whether the realm can be stable before the quota is large, so he asked Xiao Kill who was lying on the table

"Xiao Kill, how long has it been since I went into this retreat?"

A few breaths passed, and the message of the small kill came to my mind

"It's been more than half a month, kid, I didn't expect you to be able to have an epiphany and break through the middle stage!"

Knowing the information in his mind, Chen Xuan's face was stunned, and then he remembered that the meaning of the word epiphany may be because he had experienced the danger of facing despair before, so he had this epiphany.

However, since half a month has passed, is there enough time for him to stabilize his realm before the quota at the beginning of next month?

This is what Chen Xuan is most worried about at the moment, thinking that if he has already started to compete when he is in the stable realm, then he will not miss this opportunity to go to the secret realm.

Thinking of this, he shook his head, got up from the bed, put the little kill on the table into a storage bag, and then pushed the door and walked out with his sword.

When he came to the courtyard, there was no one in the courtyard at this time, which made Chen Xuan feel a little strange, where did the senior brothers go?

However, now is not the time to care about these, he now needs to prepare for the quota competition in half a month, and before that, he needs to be familiar with the swordsmanship he has cultivated.

However, before that, he felt that he should take a shower, because after so long in retreat, the clothes on his body already smelled unpleasant.

Chen Xuan took a few steps to the courtyard wall, picked up a bucket, and saw that he made a handprint, and then a bucket full of water appeared in the bucket.

About ten minutes passed, and after Chen Xuan took a shower and changed into new clothes, he came to the courtyard again, he pulled out his sword, and prepared to show off the swordsmanship he had cultivated.

At that moment, his mind sensed someone approaching the courtyard, and he turned his head to look.

Before the people arrived, the voice arrived, and Chen Xuan in the courtyard only heard a few familiar voices talking

"By the way, have you seen Senior Brother Xia from the Refining Pavilion?

"That's right, it's been so long, and he hasn't come back, and I still want to find him to create a natal magic weapon after I married Dan!"

"You say, Senior Brother Xia shouldn't be in danger outside, right?"

"Maybe this is not enough, Elder Lingyun is also a little worried about this matter, after all, there will be a big competition for places soon, if Senior Brother Xia doesn't come back, then he won't be eligible to sign up!"

“.......”

Inside the courtyard, when Chen Xuan heard this conversation, he thought of Xia Hao, who had been killed by the Killing Sword outside, and the two loose cultivators.

If it weren't for the small killer at that time, it is estimated that there is no news about him and his sister Kong Ling today.

Just when he was in a state of thinking, a familiar voice came from his ears, Chen Xuan came back to his senses, turned his head to look, and saw Cai Fuzheng looking at him with a happy face

"Senior Brother Chen, you are out of the customs, how is it, when we came back, we heard Senior Brother Yu say that you were injured!"

As he spoke, Cai Fu came closer, looked at Chen Xuan, and said with a smile

"Yes, your kid has actually broken through to the middle stage!"

Seeing that Cai Fu, Yu Ci, and Fang Shen were all looking at him with happy faces, and at the same time concerned about their injuries, Chen Xuan didn't know why, and he had an indescribable feeling in his heart.

Ever since the village was destroyed and his parents died during the Demon Beast Rebellion, he came to the Xuanling Gate, which was already his home at this time.

Seeing the three senior brothers in front of him who cared about him, Chen Xuan felt that they were like his relatives.

Seeing that Chen Xuan was stunned and didn't speak, Cai Fu shook his hand in front of him and called out at the same time

"Senior Brother Chen, are you alright?"

Pulled back to his senses by Cai Fu's voice, Chen Xuan hurriedly saluted respectfully and replied with a smile

"It's okay, Senior Brother Cai, Senior Brother Yu, Senior Brother Fang! I heard you say that Senior Brother Xia is no longer heard from, what's going on?"

Although Chen Xuan knew in his heart, he definitely couldn't tell a few people the truth now, it was a sword that killed Xia Hao, besides, he himself was the sword master of the killing sword, and if the sword killed someone, it would definitely have nothing to do with the sword master.

"Yes, Senior Brother Xia has not come back for more than a month since the last time he said that he would go down the mountain to do some errands and said goodbye to Elder Lingyun!

"I heard that Elder Lingyun sent several transmission notes out, but in the end there was no response, and I don't know what happened, and there is less than half a month to hold a big competition, it seems that Senior Brother Xia can't participate in this secret realm matter!"

Seeing Chen Xuan ask, Yu Ci sighed and said slowly.

Fang Shen, who was standing on the side, stepped forward at this time, shook his head, and sighed

"I originally wanted to ask Senior Brother Xia to help me create a natal magic weapon, but he wasn't there, so I had to ask Elder Lingyun to do it himself!"

Chen Xuan looked at Fang Shen, judging from the aura emanating from the other party's body, Fang Shen at this time had already completed the late stage of foundation building, and it would not be long before he could retreat and form a pill.

Thinking of this, Chen Xuan asked with some curiosity, he wanted to know if Senior Brother Fang wanted to take the route of Fa Cultivation or Martial Cultivation.

"By the way, Senior Brother Fang, what are you going to refine your natal magic weapon?"

Fang Shen seemed to have guessed that Chen Xuan would ask, so he smiled and replied

"Since I was basically cultivating swords before Jin Dan, I must have chosen to take the path of sword cultivation, and the natal magic weapon I am going to refine is a spirit sword, just like this, you see!"

With that, Fang Shen took out a scroll of drawings from the storage bag, he casually threw it into the sky, used his spiritual power, controlled it to open, and displayed it in front of Chen Xuan and the others.

The way of martial cultivation is to choose weapons as the natal magic weapon, and the choice of the sword proves to be sword cultivation, and similarly, the choice of the gun is the gun cultivation.

In addition, the natal magic weapons of Dharma cultivation are usually bells, pots, flags, seals, rulers, and other magic weapons that are not weapons.

If it is only a single method of cultivation, then it mainly relies on spells and people to fight the method, and the other formation mages and rune seals are as their name suggests, and most of them rely on formations and runes to fight against the enemy.

In addition, there are two non-combat types of magic cultivation, alchemists and refiners, but they are more precious than these combat types, and Dan cultivation can refine all kinds of pills, and if you cultivate them, there are more magic weapons.
