Chapter Fifty-Eight: Building the Foundation

Elder Deng calmly explained, "After the sect competition ended, Elder Wu of the Cangyun Sect wanted Xue Ying to stay with him for the time being, citing the need to solve the hidden physical danger. I can't shirk it, and I made it clear that Xue Ying is your disciple, so I don't expect anything to go wrong. ”

Batongtian still didn't relax, he always had a premonition that Xue Ying was in a life-and-death crisis, and said solemnly, "Isn't it a long time?" You send a trusted disciple to take a look, if nothing happens, if something happens to my disciple, I won't give up with them!"

"Yes, Sect Master!"

——

After another half a month of cultivation, Xue Ying has solved the hidden dangers in her body and returned to a perfect state. On this day, Xue Ying found Xiaoyi and asked her to find a secluded place where no one was around.

"This was once the habitat of a tiger beast, and it once launched a surprise attack on the ghost cultivators, causing many red ghost and green ghosts to scatter, causing us huge losses. Later, the ghost king personally arrested it, skinned and dismantled the bones to pay tribute to the dead ghost cultivator.

There are too many ghost cultivators sacrificed here, the yin wind is gusting, it is very depressing, few people come, and it has gradually become a forbidden place, and I will guard the outside for you, you can rest assured. ”

Xue Ying hugged Xiaoyi, "Thank you, Xiaoyi, if I have the ability, I will take you out and give you a free sky." ”

Xiaoyi's eyes were red and swollen, and she controlled not to shed tears, because Xue Ying once told her that tears are the wails of cowards, and this world will not cause you harm because of your tears, it can't do anything but relieve the pain.

"I just hope that my father can see me as a daughter, and as long as he gives me the opportunity, I can do anything, even better than my younger siblings. ”

"Silly girl, your father is not worth it at all! One day in the future, you will surely stand in front of him again with all your glory, and he will be bitter and remorseful, but you will not give a damn. ”

"Haha, I also hope to see that day!" Xiaoyi's face smiled again, fate tried to crush her again and again, but she always faced her with a smile, which was also the point that Xue Ying admired and was most encouraged.

"There will definitely be! First brother, you also stay outside, and I will go in by myself!"

"Xiaoying, don't worry, I will help you take a good look!"

Xue Ying nodded, and only then entered the Tiger Beast Cave, just in case, set up several layers of formations at the entrance of the cave, and then walked to the deepest part and sat down cross-legged.

She took out the carefully preserved Tsukidan in the porcelain vase, a golden and round one, and when she got closer, she could feel a strong aura rushing towards her, refreshing her heart.

Xue Ying exclaimed, "It is worthy of being a Zhuji Dan that can enable a monk to obtain a large amount of spiritual energy in a short period of time and internalize qi into liquid!"

Thinking of the danger she was about to face, Xue Ying laughed at herself, "I thought that I would build a foundation safely at the peak of Tongtian Peak of the Meteor Sect, with the help of Master Batongtian, but I didn't expect that I would do it in such a dark corner, and the road to becoming an immortal gifted to me by God is really difficult!

Xue Ying no longer hesitated, and decisively swallowed Tsukidan, which immediately turned into liquid in her mouth and left her limbs, and a wave of heat quickly spread from her mouth to her internal organs, bringing her the pain of being burned by the fire.

The aura in her body has increased dramatically, the meridians have been opened, the bottleneck has been broken, and the aura has quickly flowed to every position in her body. This is also the reason why it is best for the monk to have a senior in the presence of the foundation, who can help the monk stabilize the aura at any time without danger.

Xue Ying trembled, and her bare skin was covered with green muscles. She gritted her teeth, endured the severe pain, and compressed the place where the aura of her body was the strongest, "Poof!" The impact of the aura compression made her vomit a mouthful of blood, but she didn't stop there, and compressed it again, "Poof!" She vomited blood again.

The cycle of compression and vomiting blood lasted for a whole month before the aura slowly became dense and turned into a damp mist.

She then compressed the aura of other parts of her body into a mist step by step according to the density of the aura, and the mist gathered into a river, and the river flowed through the veins to form the sea at the dantian, and it took another two months for all the aura in her body to turn into liquid and store it in the dantian. At this point, the foundation building is completed.

At this time, her head was covered with sweat, and her whole body was drained with black mucus, emitting bursts of stench, and she herself became more crystal clear, radiant, like a fairy.

Xue Ying opened her eyes, cleaned her body with the dust removal technique, felt the majestic spiritual power in her body, and showed a happy smile, "I have finally succeeded in building a foundation, and I am one step closer to my goal, all the hard work and pain are worth it!"

She erased the traces of the place, put away the formation, and smeared her face with the fruit juice of the nightlight, and walked out in high spirits. As soon as he arrived at the exit of the cave, the little ant "swished" twice and climbed onto Xue Ying's shoulder, and couldn't wait to say loudly, "Something's wrong, Xiao Ying." Xiaoyi has rushed to gather when he heard the signal, and I am the only one waiting for you here!"

Xue Ying's face was ugly, "What's the matter, when did Xiaoyi leave?"

"Just three days ago, the Ghost King sent a summoning signal that all ghost cultivators in the enchantment must go to the center to assemble, and those who fail to do so will be expelled from the enchantment to fend for themselves. Xiaoyi rushed to the gathering, and she reassured you that she would report what you were breaking through, and you would not be considered violating the order of the ghost cultivator. ”

Xue Ying opened her mouth and said, "First brother, let's leave now, maybe we can help, their group of ghost cultivators has a very good impression on me!"

——

Elder Deng walked up to the top of Tongtian Peak a little nervously, walked to the center of the hall and saluted to the sect master Batongtian with a fist, "Meet the sect master! The disciple I sent to the Cangyun Sect has returned." ”

"Oh~ How's the situation?" Ba Tongtian sat down and asked with interest.

Elder Deng's face was embarrassed, and he was a little embarrassed.

"But it doesn't hurt to say that it won't end too badly. Since I had a master-apprentice relationship with Xue Ying, I have a sense of her good fortune and evil, and she should be alive and well. ”

Elder Deng breathed a sigh of relief at this time, he was really worried that Ba Tongtian would trouble Elder Wu when he heard the news of Xue Ying's disappearance, which would undoubtedly cause damage to the relationship between the two good neighbors.

According to what Elder Wu said, Xue Ying did not follow him to the Cave Mansion to discuss the Dan Dao, but was brought out of the Cangyun Sect by Xie Jinglin, the chief disciple of Elder Li, the refining master of the Refining Peak Refining Sect, on the same day, and he did not know where he went after that. ”

"What did Xie Jinglin say?"

"Xie Jinglin is in retreat and cultivating, and the disciples I sent there haven't seen him. ”

"You don't have to worry about this, I'll go and see for myself. Although Xue Ying didn't have an accident, she must have been in trouble, otherwise she would have returned to the Meteor Sect to find me to build a foundation early!"

After Elder Deng left, Batong Tian snorted coldly, "I haven't been out of the mountain for a long time, but someone doesn't take me seriously, and they dare to calculate my disciple!"

As soon as he flicked his sleeves, he disappeared in place, and after half an hour, he had already arrived at the Cangyun Sect, without alerting any guards, and flew directly to the peak of the Refining Weapon Peak.

Mo Wentian on the top of Cangyun Peak opened his eyes, looked in the direction of the refining peak, picked up the dust, and walked out of the retreat room.

"What about Xie Jinglin, come out for me!" Batongtian roared, and all the disciples on the refining peak were startled by the sound, looking towards the peak, whispering in groups of three or five, discussing the purpose of Batongtian's arrival.

At this time, Elder Li was refining a set of combined flying knife spirit weapons, the material was black iron with excellent hardness and toughness, each as thin as a cicada's wings, small and flexible but extremely sharp, very suitable for sneak attacks, and could also be used with formations, the enemy could not defend against it.

He had already heard the sound of the tyrant, but he still finished refining the flying knife and put it away carefully before he walked out of the refining room.

This is not his contempt for Batongtian, on the contrary, he respects Batongtian very much and appreciates his heroic spirit. It's just that he demands perfection for every work, otherwise he would rather it become a scrap, and he is perfectionist, not allowing any defective products to appear under his hands.

"Cangyun Sect Li Yuan has seen the Meteor Sect Master, I wonder what the Sect Master has to do with my apprentice Xie Jinglin?" Elder Li took a deep look and asked respectfully.

"Hmph, your apprentice took my apprentice out of Cangyun Sect, and since then, my apprentice Xue Ying has disappeared, as a master, of course I have to ask Xie Jinglin clearly, you quickly find him. ”

Elder Li's face was grim, in his mind, Xie Jinglin was his most proud disciple, his cultivation talent was excellent, his refining talent was not inferior to him, he was fair, and he was dedicated to the Dao, there was no reason to be unfavorable to Xue Ying.

"Jing Lin is now cultivating to a critical moment, so it is not appropriate to interrupt, and I ask the sect master to forgive me some time. After he leaves the customs, I will ask him to go to the Meteor Sect in person and explain the cause and effect of this matter to the sect master. ”

"No, Xue Ying has been missing for a whole month, I have to see him now!" How could the proud Batongtian tolerate himself going out in person but returning in defeat?

"Master don't be embarrassed, I'm here! Xie Jinglin has seen the Meteor Sect Master, Master!" Xie Jinglin covered his chest with his right hand, came to the two of them with a pale face, and bent down.

When he was cultivating, he was interrupted by the roar of Batongtian, his meridians were retrograde, and he vomited blood, and as soon as he straightened out the aura in his body, he heard the conversation between the two, worried that Elder Li would be troubled, and walked out with the discomfort of qi and blood.

"You kid, you always love to be strong!" Elder Li saw Xie Jinglin's face, how could he not know what had just happened to him?

While injecting him with gentle spiritual power to heal his wounds, Elder Li swallowed two pills for him, and Xie Jinglin's face was indeed much better.

"Master, I'm fine! I'll explain it to the Meteor Sect Master. ”

Xie Jinglin paused for a moment before saying, "I am indeed responsible for Xue Ying's disappearance. At the end of the sect competition that day, Elder Deng of the Gui Sect stayed with her by Elder Wu of the Cangyun Sect. However, she secretly found me, hoping that I could take her out, because Elder Wu had some intentions against her.

Although I was very dissatisfied with her words, I still took her out of the Cangyun Sect, and as for what happened to her after that, I don't know, cough..."

Ba Tongtian pondered for a moment, threw a small porcelain bottle in his direction, and said, "It's no wonder to you, it's very good that you can take her out of the Cangyun Sect, this bottle of Centennial Spirit Milk will be used as compensation!

Ba Tongtian disappeared in an instant, and Elder Li sighed, "He's still so domineering and protecting his short-term son! Your cultivation was interrupted and injured by him, and it is only natural for him to compensate you, take it!"

Alas, I don't have a deep relationship with Elder Wu, so I don't know if this matter has anything to do with him. If it is related, even if Sect Master Mo comes forward, Elder Wu may not have good fruits to eat!

However, these have little to do with you and me, it is important for you to take care of your injuries first, and I will also think carefully about the idea that occurred when I was refining the weapon just now. ”

"Yes, Master, I listen to you!" Xie Jinglin returned to the cultivation room, using the Breitling Milk he had just obtained to heal his injuries, and this time he might be able to enter the late stage of foundation building in one fell swoop.
