Lin Zhao and Gu Yufei lived in the nameless valley for half a month.

In the past half a month, Lin Zhao cooked the flesh and blood of frogs every day, steaming, boiling, roasting, and frying all the means, and Gu Yufei, who ate it, hummed with a soft stomach every day.

Lin Zhao saw that this girl had a frank temperament, and she was secretly funny.

The Sanyang Divine Fire Sect is famous in the cultivation world for resisting fire, and the best of the cultivation auxiliary means is alchemy and refining, and there is no one else in the major sects in the Kun Realm.

Gu Yufei's master, Xianshu Zhenren, is a third-order alchemy master, and his disciples naturally have obtained the true inheritance. Gu Yufei was also a first-order alchemist at this time, and when she was placed in a small sect, she was all worshipped as a master.

Lin Zhao was taught by Dr. Li that year, and he was familiar with the way of decoction and medicine, and was good at cooking food.

One of them is proficient in martial arts, understands the properties of medicine, and is familiar with the physical needs of the human body, and the other is proficient in the elixir Dandao, and under the cooperation of the two, they have innovated in medicinal diets.

Gu Yufei took out the various elixirs she carried, analyzed the medicinal properties, and distinguished yin and yang, Lin Zhao added a lot of cooking methods from her previous life to make the flesh and blood of the frog Jiao into a top-level medicinal diet, which not only had the color, flavor, and taste, but also had the best refining effect.

Gu Yufei, like the mainstream monks, is a cultivator, and is not proficient in the refining of gods and demons.

Therefore, I don't eat much every time, not because I don't want to eat, but because I really can't eat.

I could only watch Lin Zhao gobble up and feast, while he secretly drooled, and he was very indignant in his heart.

After eating the medicinal diet every day, Lin Zhao will practice boxing, so that he can absorb the medicinal power better and faster.

And practicing boxing every day, Lin Zhao could clearly feel the rapid improvement of his physical body, and a realization suddenly rose in his heart. I may have a different way of practicing than ordinary monks.

As far as he is concerned, the previous cultivation method was only to absorb spiritual power and refine the physical body with true yuan, which lacked the way to enhance the physical body, and it was still insufficient.

In fact, one strengthens the physical body and the other refines the physical body, and the two cultivation methods are not contradictory, but complement each other.

After half a month's effort, the two of them almost finished eating a frog, and of course most of it entered Lin Zhao's abdomen. Among them, the effect is really amazing, Lin Zhao feels that his physical strength and strength have increased by at least half.

In the past two or three days, whenever Gu Yufei started to practice boxing, Gu Yufei always liked to sit aside, holding her chin, frowning slightly, as if she had something on her mind.

Lin Zhao didn't say anything when he saw it, and he didn't want to ask too much.

In the past half a month, the two got along very tacitly, Lin Zhao didn't say much, but he liked to listen to Gu Yufei chatter about the stories of the senior brothers and sisters in the sect.

Gu Yufei is very eloquent, she can always say one thing vividly, with her crisp and pleasant voice, it is really itchy for people who listen to it.

But Lin Zhao adheres to etiquette and never oversteps, quite a gentleman like jade, and the intersection is like water.

On this day, Lin Zhao and Gu Yufei sat on chairs, each holding a cup of tea in their hands, and tasted it slowly. In the past half a month, the two have gotten along very happily, but their cultivation is difficult, and they must not slack off, and today is finally the time to separate.

The wind and sun were beautiful in the sky, and Lin Zhao and Gu Yufei stood side by side in the valley. They all looked at each other and smiled slightly, understanding that the separation was imminent.

"Senior Brother Hezhao, I am not very grateful for the care I have received these days. It's just that the junior sister still needs to travel the world, condense the evil qi of the earth's veins, and leave today, but I don't know when we will meet again! At the time of parting, there is a thin gift to the senior brother, and the senior brother is invited to accept it. ”

After that, an emerald jade bottle appeared in Gu Yufei's hand and was sent to Lin Zhao. Lin Zhao glanced at Gu Yufei, and saw that her clear eyes were full of sincerity and expectation, so he stretched out his hand to take it!

Before he could say thank you, he heard Gu Yufei continue: "This is the first furnace of elixir that Yufei has personally refined since she became an alchemist, and it is called Zhuyan Dan. This Dan is sent to the senior brother, I wish the senior brother eternal youth and longevity!"

When Lin Zhao heard this, he looked stunned, and immediately knew the value of this pill.

It is not difficult to refine the "Zhuyan Pill", but there are many elixirs involved in its formula, and several of them are extremely difficult to find, and they are the most cherished by female cultivators.

After reaching the Peiyuan period and surviving the first "19 Heavenly Tribulation", the monk will remain the same as when he crossed the tribulation for a long time. Later, as the years go by, they slowly grow old, and the specific speed of aging is related to the practice and realm of practice.

Although Lin Zhao didn't care about his appearance, Gu Yufei was able to send this pill to Lin Zhao, and his sincerity can be seen.

Solemnly accepted it, Lin Zhao originally wanted to thank him, but after thinking about it, he didn't say anything.

I secretly sighed that I was indeed a little poor, and I couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when I wanted to give a return gift.

"Senior brother, Yufei likes your flute very much, can you play another song when you are about to part?" Gu Yufei looked at Lin Zhao with a look of anticipation in her eyes.

This song is Lin Zhao's own creation, "Hometown" refers to the past life that can never be returned, and contains Lin Zhao's memories hidden in the depths of his heart. Among them, there are relatives, life, struggle, and the homeland where they grew up.

Lin Zhao played it once a few days ago, and Gu Yufei liked it immediately, perhaps it evoked Gu Yufei's childhood memories.

The sound of the flute sounded, far away and hazy, like the morning mist that swayed in the early morning, and like a distant vague memory, carrying the mind through time, through space, to a mountain.

The tone turns, and it seems that beautiful mountains and rivers, scattered houses, and children running around seem to emerge, and they are even more happy. In the sound of the long flute, there is a baby who slowly grows up in the years, and finally one day will leave his hometown and go outside. At the time of parting, he was sad and reluctant to give up his relatives.

The sound of the flute gradually became low and depressed. The red dust is like a furnace, and the young people who have left their hometown have experienced vicissitudes on the road of their lives, and have experienced wind, frost, snow and rain.

Gradually, the sound of the flute became slow and tactful, as if the years had passed, the years were gone, and the young people who had left their hometown were gray-haired at this time.

But the memories and thoughts of my hometown are like threads, appearing in dreams, appearing in three meals, and appearing under the bright moon.

The old man can no longer suppress his longing for his hometown, even if he has gray hair and is not good at walking, he must return to his hometown, he must return to his hometown where he grew up, and he must return to his hometown that haunts his dreams!

For a while, the sound of the flute was agitated and rushing, overlapping and reciprocating. Gu Yufei could no longer suppress the miserable memories of her childhood in her heart, and suddenly burst into tears.

When the sound of the flute changed again, it became gentle and distant, but the gray-haired old man finally failed to return to his hometown.

When he was dying, he seemed to see the mountain village of his hometown, the green mountains, and the clear water, the old trees in front of the door, and the old father and mother who had passed away beckoning to him.

The tone suddenly became high-pitched, overlapping and reciprocating again, as if he was fighting against the cycle of life and death, against birth, old age, sickness and death, wanting to get out of the cage of heaven and earth, revealing the high-spirited spirit of endless life and struggle.

The sound of the flute has disappeared in the wind, and Gu Yufei, who was sitting in the chair, was still in tears, unable to help herself.

Lin Zhao sighed secretly, and a brocade handkerchief appeared in his hand, which was embroidered with "colorful clouds chasing the moon", with fine stitches and gorgeous patterns. But when Lin Mansion was leaving, his mother Chen prepared for herself, and every stitch and thread on it was embroidered by her mother in her spare time.

Seeing that Gu Yufei was attracted by herself, tears fell on her fair face, Lin Zhao was also ashamed, and hurriedly stepped forward to hand over the handkerchief, and comforted her gently.

After a while, Gu Yufei cleaned up her mood and smiled at Lin Zhao, Lin Zhao's eyes seemed to see the lotus coming out of the water, delicate and beautiful, and the flowers and branches brought rain.

"Senior Brother Hezhao, meet again if you have a fate!" After saying a word, he saw Gu Yufei's figure swept up, driving a flat boat magic weapon, and slowly walked towards the northeast.

Lin Zhao looked at the sky and watched Gu Yufei's magic boat disappear into the distant sky, his eyes were far away, and he was also impressed by this woman's fall.

Those who practice should be like this! When fate comes, they gather, and when they are empty, they disperse, and they will naturally meet again when they have fate.

After a few moments, Lin Zhao also took off from the air and headed east.

After leaving the sect, more than three years have passed, and it is not far from the five-year period set by Taixu Zhenren. Lin Zhao walked slowly all the way, and he was not in a hurry, visiting various scenery, watching natural creation, and sensing the avenue of heaven and earth.

It's also a shame to say that the more spells I have comprehended, the deeper my understanding of the Great Dao becomes, but the more alienated I am from various magic weapons. The lotus flying magic weapon that the master gave him back then has never been used, and he always feels that the physical body can fly in the sky, which can strengthen his comprehension of the magic.

Lin Zhao reflected on his own body, which seemed to be a bit excessive, just like the concept of "the reason why people are human is to use tools" in his previous life, as a monk, he does not use magic weapons, which is a typical excess.

I secretly reminded myself to pay more attention in the future, but now is the time to build the foundation of my cultivation, and it is good to seize every opportunity to improve my control over the spells.

The territory of Lingzhou in the Southern Regions is vast, and the land occupied by the human race is less than one-third of the total area. In the rest of the place, the Dadu Mountains are vertical and horizontal, with countless ravines, and the beasts and demon clans are entrenched in them, born and raised, and rampant.

The places with abundant spiritual energy in the mountains are often occupied by great demons.

Fortunately, the Terran cultivation sect is strong and can often kill and suppress, but it is only an undefeated situation. The demon clan occupies a super-grade spiritual vein in the Yunling Mountains, and establishes the Heavenly Demon Palace on it, and there are eight known demon gods on the surface, and it is unknown whether there is still hidden in the secret.

The demon god can be compared to the monk of the Terran Returning Period, but in the real battle, he still has the upper hand. In the past, there was no shortage of Yunling Heavenly Demon Palaces who had ascended to the upper realm, and it could be said that it was a holy place in the hearts of all the demon clans in the Southern Regions Lingzhou.

Seven or eight days passed, Lin Zhao performed the "Escape Vertical and Horizontal Technique" all the way and came to the "Dameng Empire", and the land area of the Dameng Empire was at least three times larger than that of the Dawu Kingdom.

There are several medium-sized spiritual veins and more than a dozen small spiritual veins in the territory, so there are several medium-sized cultivation sects that have established sects here, and there are even more small sects, there are more than 20 sects. It is not at all like the surroundings of the Great Martial Kingdom, and there is a lack of spiritual veins, even small sects can't see one.

There are many schools of practice, and more monks have also been produced, among which a large number of rootless loose practices have also been born. On this day, Lin Zhao lowered his figure outside a big city, and came here mainly because he knew that there was a cultivation market here, and he just came to take a walk around and gain some knowledge.

The practice market here is located in the belly of a mountain outside the city, and it is co-hosted by three small sects in the surrounding area. Lin Zhao planned to stay in the "Kangyuan City" in front of him first, and then find an opportunity to go to the cultivation market.

Too lazy to queue up at the gate of the city to pay taxes, Lin Zhao directly performed the "concealment technique" and entered Kangyuan City. I first found a first-class inn and opened an upper room.

Sitting on the bed, Lin Zhao took out a jade bottle and looked at it carefully. Then it was opened and a pill was poured out, and there were faint pill lines on the surface of the pill, and it smelled fragrant. As if thinking of something, Lin Zhao shook his head with a smile and swallowed it in one gulp.

After a while, Lin Zhao felt a burst of heat coming from his face, and after a while, it became cool again, and after nine transformations, his face was extremely comfortable, and there was no slightest abnormality.

After that, I fell asleep and didn't want to do anything. After many years of meditation and practice instead of sleep, and these days and rushing every day, Lin Zhao suddenly had the desire to sleep, and he did what he wanted.

Cultivating to a certain level, and longing to sleep like this, shows that the soul really needs deep cultivation.

When he woke up the next day, Lin Zhao didn't go around the city, so he went straight out of the city and flew towards the cultivation bazaar recorded in the books.

In the air, looking at the shape of the mountain, Lin Zhao landed in front of a "pyramid" shaped mountain. The Heart Dao should be here, although this mountain does not look abnormal on the outside, except for the slightly unique appearance, it does not look much different from ordinary peaks.

In fact, this mountain is set up with a phantom array similar to the "Ecstasy Array", if ordinary ordinary people enter, they will get lost and circle in circles, until they are exhausted and unconscious, and then they will be sent out by the monks who are in the dark and manage the practice market.

Lin Zhao naturally wouldn't be stopped by this mere phantom array, and performed a "Qingming Technique" that was most commonly used in the cultivation world, so he found the path and entered this cultivation bazaar called "Jinyuan Mountain".

After passing through the phantom array, you will see a stone path path, and there is a wooden sign pointing the way at the intersection. Lin Zhao's body seems to be slow and fast, and his toes are a little on the ground, that is, a few feet away, if outsiders don't pay attention, they will think that he is walking normally.

After walking along the trail for about a cup of tea, Lin Zhao came to the entrance of a stone cave, the grass and trees in front of the stone cave had been artificially cleaned, and the stone wall above was engraved with the words "Jinyuan Mountain Practice Market".

The cave has two stone doors, which are being opened at this time. As soon as you enter the stone cave, you will see a stone chamber about seven or eight zhang square, which is obviously excavated by hand. There were several tables in the stone room, and seven or eight monks were sitting on chairs, and when Lin Zhao came in, a young monk greeted him.

"Welcome Daoists to the Jinyuanshan Cultivation Market, and please pay the management fee of a low-grade spirit stone, and you can buy and sell at will. ”

Lin Zhao knew the rules, and he didn't say much, a spirit stone appeared in his hand and threw it to the young monk opposite.

The monk on the opposite side took it with his hand, his movements were skillful, without the slightest smell of fireworks, and he obviously cultivated this skill to the extreme.

Nodding to the monks around him, Lin Zhao walked inward without looking back. After Lin Zhao left, several seated monks communicated casually, and they were all unfamiliar with the young monk just now. It's just that the cultivation world is vast, and there are all kinds of monks, and no one has studied who Lin Zhao is.

After walking for more than 100 meters in the winding mountainside passage, the eyes suddenly opened up, and a street about three feet wide appeared in front of me, leading to the front.

Stone chambers of uniform size have been excavated on both sides of the street, and plaques are hung horizontally above the entrances of the stone chambers. On both sides of the passage into the market, there was a passage spiraling upward, Lin Zhao thought about it, and then walked towards the market.

The bustling sound came into the eardrums, and the top wall of the street was three zhang high, inlaid with fist-sized night pearls and various luminous fluorites, shining the whole market white, and the air in the passage was fresh and circulating. At this time, there were many monks in the market, going in and out of the shops, each looking for what he liked.

Lin Zhao swept it at a glance and saw that there were many kinds of shops on both sides of the street, such as "Li's Fu Qi Pavilion", "Huangya Valley Spirit Pill Shop", "Purple Fire Ridge Refining Shop", "Golden Spirit Magic Shop", "Ten Perfect Spirit Material Shop", etc., and there were shouts from time to time. Lin Zhao really felt like he had arrived at a mortal vegetable market.

After thinking about it, Lin Zhao turned around one shop after another, although he didn't buy anything, it was really an eye-opener. There is too much knowledge of the cultivation world hidden in his mind, but in practice, Lin Zhao is a white ding who can't be a vegetable anymore, and he belongs to the level of just getting out of the novice village.

Fortunately, Lin Zhao is knowledgeable, and every time he visits a store, he can always chat with his buddy or boss.

In the end, when Lin Zhao left, the other party still had a respectful expression, this was not only the strong communication ability that Lin Zhao had cultivated in his previous life, but also the power of the cultivation world was shining brightly.

For these small sects, or monks of the scattered cultivation lineage, the knowledge in Lin Zhao's mind is a priceless treasure. Occasionally give a word or two, of course, you can gain the respect of the other party.

In this way, Lin Zhao browsed and wandered around the various shops, but this layer, whether it was pills, magic weapons, or various spiritual materials, was relatively low-level, and it was generally used in the Qi refining period, and things in the Peiyuan period were relatively rare. Of course, these are all the same for Lin Zhao, and they are not attractive at all.

I don't know the sun and moon in the cave, and Lin Zhao doesn't know how long he has been shopping before he finishes shopping around the shops on this floor. The various knowledge in my mind is matched with the actual objects, and I feel that it is also very rewarding.

At the end of the street, Lin Zhao saw a stone staircase spiraling upward. Lin Zhao had a casual attitude, and walked all the way, the stone steps were in a screw structure, spiraling upward, and after a while, Lin Zhao saw a street market again.

There is a slight decrease in the flow of people in this street market compared to the one floor below. The layout of the market is the same as below, except that the stone room is larger, and the sign at the door of the store is more promising, and the whole style is higher than the one floor below.

Lin Zhao continued to shop, and saw all kinds of elixirs, spiritual herbs, heavenly and earthly treasures for various purposes, magic weapons, etc., although they were all low-level goods, but they were still quickly filling Lin Zhao's cognition of physical objects.

When Lin Zhao finished walking around this floor, he saw the same stone steps again, but there were monks guarding the stone steps.

After Lin Zhao asked clearly, he realized that further up, it was the auction hall of the Jinyuan Mountain Cultivation Market, and it was unfortunate that Lin Zhao came, and the auction hall was closed at this time.

The guard monk told Lin Zhao: "There will be an auction in ten days, and there will be many good treasures in this auction, if you are interested, you can come and participate in the auction." ”

The words of the guard monk aroused Lin Zhao's interest, and it didn't hurt to wait for ten days, just to see the auction scene of the cultivation bazaar, whether there were really good treasures appearing.

Exactly: the past and the present are separated and parted, and he meets the mountains and rivers every day!
