"Second uncle, second uncle is back. Chen Chuan shouted excitedly.

The person who flew in was Chen Chuan's second uncle Chen Qingze, he was wearing a white robe, and he hadn't seen him for a few months, and his round figure seemed to have lost some weight.

Chen Qingze landed steadily on the top of Zhaobi Mountain, looked at the people looking at him on the top of the mountain, and breathed a long sigh of relief.

During this time of going out, he was afraid that something would happen to his family, but now that he saw that his clansmen were safe and sound, especially when he saw Chen Chuan running towards him, he relaxed a lot.

Chen Chuan, who ran towards Chen Qingze, frowned suddenly, stood up, and asked from a distance, "Where is the ninth brother?"

Chen Qingze's cheeks, which had just relaxed, immediately became gloomy after hearing Chen Chuan's inquiry.

"You come with me. Chen Qingze said as he walked towards the boulder on the top of the mountain.

At this time, the fourth uncle and the others also walked out of their respective wooden houses, quietly looking at the uncle and nephew who were talking secretly in the distance.

"Second uncle, where is the ninth brother?" came to the top of the mountain beside the boulder, Chen Chuan asked again.

"I don't want to tell you about Chen Yan now, because you have more important things to do. As Chen Qingze spoke, he took out a vermilion storage box from his sleeve robe.

Opening the box and injecting the aura into it, a white jade jade slip appeared in Chen Qingze's hand.

"This is the second-grade ice attribute exercise purchased for you, it is enough for you to cultivate to the foundation building period, from today onwards, you will retreat and cultivate, and you are not allowed to leave the level until the qi refining period. Chen Qingze handed the jade slip to Chen Chuan.

Chen Chuan caught Yu Jian with trembling hands, but he was still asking, "Brother Jiu didn't have an accident, right?"

"Don't worry, he's better off than we are. Chen Qingze said.

After handing over the exercises to Chen Chuan, Chen Qingze took out a cloth bag from the storage box and handed it to Chen Chuan.

"These are twenty spirit stones, which should be enough for you to cultivate for a while. ”

Holding the jade slip and spirit stone, Chen Chuan bowed to Chen Qingze, and then slowly walked towards the cave on the mountainside.

After ten years of family sedimentation to get this small white jade slip, Chen Chuan suddenly felt an incomparably huge pressure.

The path to the mountainside cave is not easy to walk, the snow is very thick and slippery, but Chen Chuan's steps are so firm, and every step makes a deep footprint.

Coming to the cave mansion belonging to Chen Yan, Chen Chuan took a few deep breaths and sat cross-legged on the futon.

Putting the cloth bag on his lap, Chen Chuan looked at the white jade slip in his hand.

He knew that there was an exercise sealed in the jade slip, and as long as the essence blood was dripped on the jade slip, the exercise would be revealed.

Without any hesitation, Chen Chuan took out a dagger from his arms and gently cut his fingers.

A drop of essence blood dripped from his finger, and when the essence blood fell on the jade slip, the jade slip instantly cracked open and turned into red powder in the blink of an eye.

The red powder was spelled out into one hundred and eighty characters in the wafting, and the three darkest words were 'Ice Heart Jue'.

This is the exercise that Chen Qingze bought for Chen Chuan in Chang'an City, the ice attribute second-grade exercise ice heart formula.

Chen Chuan read the Ice Heart Recipe carefully, and after reading it twice, he had thoroughly memorized the Ice Heart Recipe.

Slowly closing his eyes, Chen Chuan began his cultivation career.

Focusing his consciousness on the dantian position, Chen Chuan looked for the wisp of his own aura in the dantian, and his own aura is also called natal true qi.

Natal True Qi is the first aura for monks to open up the meridians of the exercises, Chen Chuan had sensed his Natal True Qi a long time ago, but at that time he didn't have ice attribute exercises, and even if he sensed it, he couldn't open the meridians.

It was a long process to induce the natal true qi, and after three full hours, Chen Chuan finally sensed the natal true qi at the dantian.

According to the meridians of the Bingxin Jue Exercises, Chen Chuan controlled his natal true qi to impact towards the first meridian.

When the true qi came to the first meridian channel, Chen Chuan's entire body trembled.

The pain made him scream, and the sound reached the top of Zhaobi Mountain.

Chen Qingze, who was standing on the top of the mountain, heard this shout, and a long-lost smile appeared on his face.

Three days later, Chen Feng walked into the cave where Chen Chuan was located with a roast chicken.

Chen Chuan was still cultivating with his eyes closed, and after Chen Feng put the roast chicken on the stone table, he quietly walked out of the cave.

It wasn't until dark at night that Chen Chuan opened his eyes, the first time he had opened them in three days.

The deep eyes seem to be much more agile than three days ago, and the temperament of the whole person has also undergone some changes, and it seems that the bones are more coordinated.

Lighting the grease lamp in the cave, Chen Chuan took advantage of the light to eat the roast chicken on the stone table, and then without the slightest rest and relaxation, he took out a spirit stone from the cloth bag and closed his eyes again to cultivate.

In the past three days, he had completely opened up all the meridians of the Ice Heart Technique, and the natal true qi in his body dissipated in his body after flowing back into the dantian

Because after the meridians are opened, Chen Chuan can absorb the aura between heaven and earth through the operation of exercises, and constantly absorb the aura of heaven and earth, and his cultivation will slowly improve.

The current Chen Chuan was a first-level cultivator in the innate stage, and when he continued to absorb the spiritual energy and formed nine spiritual qi masses in the dantian, he could fuse the nine qi masses and enter the qi refining stage.

But this process was long, and according to Chen Chuan's estimates, it would take him at least two years to enter the Qi refining period.

After Chen Chuan entered the normal retreat, Chen Qingze led his clan to reopen the mountain road, and in the process of opening up the mountain road, Chen Qingze personally took action and took back the spirit stone mine occupied by the Bai family at the foot of the mountain.

After being frantically mined by the Bai family, although the spirit root is still there, it can no longer be mined in the past two years.

Standing at the entrance of the mine, Chen Qingze scolded: "Bai Haotian, you fucking wait for Lao Tzu." ”

"Second brother, what should I do next?" Chen Xingze asked.

"Organize all the Qi Refining Period clansmen and prepare to enter the mountain. As Chen Qingze spoke, he smashed his fist on the top of the mine.

The dark energy of this punch went straight to the depths of the spirit stone mine, and with a loud bang coming from the mine, the entire spirit stone mine was completely sealed from the inside out.

"Do you go into the mountains to hunt spirit beasts?" Chen Xingze continued to ask.

"Yes, hunt spirit beasts. After Chen Qingze finished speaking, he flung his sleeve robe and walked towards the mountain.

The spirit stone mine could not mine spirit stones, so Chen Qingze had to take the monks of the clan to the depths of the Lotus Mountain Range to hunt spirit beasts, because the spirit core of spirit beasts could be exchanged for spirit stones.

The spirit core is the core of the spirit beast, which can be used for alchemy, refining, array, etc., but hunting spirit beasts is a very dangerous thing.

Small families generally do not venture into the mountains to hunt spirit beasts, especially into the depths of unknown mountain ranges.

Time passed, and winter passed by in a hurry.

On the first day of spring, Chen Qingze set off with a group of clansmen, and their destination was the Devil's Forest fifty miles west of Zhaobi Mountain.

On the third day after they left, three Qi Refining Stage cultivators came from outside Zhaobi Mountain, among them was a woman in a blue skirt with a white veil covering her face.
