I don't know how many hours have passed, and when Qianxue woke up, it was already more quiet at night, and she lay on the ground, looking at the sky with sparse stars, trying to remember what had happened before she fell unconscious.

It was only halfway through her thinking that her face changed, and she hurriedly sacrificed her sword and hurried in the direction of Ruthless Peak in a panic. I couldn't fly for half a mile, only to feel abnormal tightness in my chest, a slight sweetness in my throat, and a mouthful of blood sprayed on the flying sword. She was shocked, and hurriedly checked her body, which scared her enough, only to see that the speed of the strings had soared to an unprecedented level, and the bones and flesh around her body showed signs of loosening again.

She hurriedly used her mana to wrap the strings in and out of the three layers tightly, and then she could barely suppress the tumbling blood in her body and staggered forward.

At this moment, less than a mile in front of her, a Taoist priest appeared, also stepping on a flying sword, and also staggering towards her. Somehow, the Taoist priest seemed to be unable to see Qianxue, and only cared about flying forward, and Qianxue was almost powerless to control the flying sword at this time, so the two of them collided solidly and fell from the sky together.

Listening to the whistling sound in her ears getting louder and louder, she saw that she was about to fall to the ground, if it was solid, she was afraid that it would become a meat pie! Qianxue thought in her heart, but she didn't really want to turn into minced meat, so she had to grit her teeth and disperse the mana wrapped in the strings. At this moment, the momentum that fell from the sky was all sucked away by the string, and the speed of the string was a few points faster, and Qianxue sprayed a mouthful of blood on the ground, and hurriedly isolated the string again.

At this time, Qian Xue reluctantly sat up, wiped the blood from her mouth, looked up at the opposite side, and saw the other party with a little starlight.

It turned out that this Taoist priest was a woman. She is not very old, only fifteen or sixteen years old, her face is extremely beautiful, her snow-white cheeks have not dried her tears, and her crystal clear eyes are looking at her steadily.

Qianxue felt strange and wanted to ask what was going on. But seeing her suddenly change her expression, she pointed at Qianxue tremblingly, and said, "You, what the hell are you?"

The nun only said one sentence, and I didn't know what to remember, but she cried in a low voice again, and said to herself while wiping her tears: "You still have the leisure to take care of such idle things, if you are a little late, I am afraid that you will never see you again!"

Qianxue was confused, but she was most eager to return to her nest at the moment, and other things would be put aside for the time being.

After returning to the thatched hut, Qianxue only rested for a while before cultivating cross-legged. She didn't have time to sort out what happened tonight, and now that the strings were so fast, it meant that the speed at which she could draw qi into her body would also be greatly increased, and this rare opportunity she didn't want to miss anyway.

This cultivation took more than ten days. It wasn't until the strings in her body calmed down that she stopped cultivating, and her cultivation also broke through to the peak of the third layer of qi training.

As her cultivation improved, she found that the strings had also undergone some subtle changes. For example, the amount of aura required to maintain the normal operation of the string gradually increases, and the amount of aura that the string can absorb also increases. If it was the limit for her to absorb the aura of a fifth-level cultivator when she was cultivating the first layer of qi, then even if she drained the mana of a cultivator of the eighth layer of qi cultivation now, the speed of the strings would not exceed the limit.

Qianxue, who was idle, began to think back to the strange situation that happened that night. If she hadn't been confused, she was afraid that someone in the True One Sect would covet the strings in her body. It's just that how many people know about this? But if it was said that the senior sister instructed someone to do it, she didn't want to believe it.

She pondered for a moment, stood up suddenly, took out a small bronze mirror from the storage bag, slammed it to the ground, and stomped on it a few more times, but saw that instead of destroying it, the mirror was a little brighter, and she was so angry that she smoked. Without thinking about it, she took the small bronze mirror to the edge of the cliff at the top of the peak, threw it down, and after a while, the small mirror disappeared, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

When she returned to the hut, a transmission note was floating by the grass door. took it off and listened to it, but it was Steward Zhang who called her to go down.

At this time, Qianxue remembered that the resources received from the Jade Emperor Peak had not yet been handed over to Steward Zhang for distribution, so she hurriedly took the storage bag and went to the Daode Pavilion without mentioning it.

However, he said that the old man Lin Shilin, who had met with Qianxue in the Moral Pavilion before, had never forgotten it since he said goodbye to Qianxue, and he was looking forward to Qianxue coming to his class as soon as possible. After he confirmed Qianxue's registration, he was thinking about how to extort more spirit stones, and his hair turned gray a few times.

When the young Taoist priest on the side saw it, he said, "Could it be that someone has reported your class again?

Old man Lin heard this, and said angrily: "You are not a good man!" you know that if you don't hurry up and cultivate, next time Xiaobi will not be able to enter the top ten, don't think about getting another spirit stone from me." ”

The young man pursed his lips, stretched out his hand, and said, "Give me a few medium-grade spirit stones for emergencies." ”

"What to do. Old man Lin glared.

"Recently, Lingbao Zhai has released a few new spiritual weapons, I'll go see if there are any that I can take advantage of. ”

Old man Lin glanced at the young man suspiciously, and finally took out three medium-grade spirit stones, and said, "Boy, if you learn the formation with me for a few years, you won't have to worry about running out of spirit stones in the future." ”

The young man looked disgusted and said, "Do you make a living by fooling people like you?" ”

After a few more days, Old Man Lin waited for Qianxue to come on the second floor of the Teaching Hall with great anticipation, but there was no half of a figure? He was a little dumbfounded, she was obviously very eager to ask questions that day.

Looking at the empty venue, Old Man Lin had mixed feelings in his heart, to say that the formation has not been welcomed by people since its inception, but it is not necessarily that the decline of the formation originated from a great battle between the Demon Sect and the True One Sect a hundred years ago.

Back then, the demon saintess Shangguan Qiushui was born, and I don't know what exercises she practiced, but she was able to break through the five elements of the world, and all the formations were like a void in front of her, and they couldn't stop her progress at all, causing the True One Sect to retreat, and since then, the way of the formation has gradually declined.

Even now, Old Man Lin still can't think of a way to deal with it.

Old Man Lin left the Teaching Hall a little lonely and returned to the cave to concentrate on studying the formation he had high hopes for. This set of formations, which he named the "Seven Star Array", contains seven different spaces, with the help of the Bagua direction, the seven spaces are nested layer by layer, and the changes are endless.

It took him nearly twenty years to carve six formation flags, but the last one always failed, forcing him to re-examine the whole formation and try to figure out what was wrong.

One day, he happened to run out of materials and had to stop researching, and with a long sigh, he decided to go to the Daode Pavilion to get some materials, it turned out that his cave was at the foot of Ruthless Peak. When he walked to the moral hall and saw a person who made him miss him, he was overjoyed, and he couldn't wait to immediately come forward and ask her why she didn't go to the class. But at a glance, she saw that Steward Zhang was also beside her, and the two of them were talking about something sneakily, and after speaking, the two of them went to the side room of the Daode Hall together.

His curiosity was aroused, but he didn't do anything like tailgating. After a long time of incense, I saw them come out of it, and Steward Zhang smiled so much that it was a spring breeze on his face. Old man Lin, who was familiar with Steward Zhang, naturally knew that he must have gotten the result he wanted.

Qian Xue also found Old Man Lin, and hurriedly stepped forward to make a move, saying, "Senior, don't come to harm." ”

"Well, why didn't you come to the class a few days ago, but if there is any difficulty, you might as well talk about it. Old man Lin said.

Qianxue was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that she had signed up, so she signed up just to ask the old man where the string came from, but since she almost died that night, Fang Zhixian's existence could not be confided at will, so she naturally stopped the idea of asking the old man.

Now when the old man asked about it, he couldn't help but look embarrassed. After hesitating for a moment, he saw that the old man looked earnest, and there were many spirit stones on his hand inexplicably, so he stopped thinking and said: "That day was when the juniors were cultivating to a critical point, and it was inconvenient to interrupt, and the juniors will definitely go to listen to the teachings of the seniors next month." "Even though it's inconvenient to ask about the strings, she still has a lot of questions when she first joins the Shinyi Sect.

After listening to Qianxue's explanation, the old man suddenly felt comfortable physically and mentally, stroked his gray beard, and said, "Don't forget it, little friend." Hearing Qianxue say "don't dare" again, she talked about the materials to Steward Zhang on the side.

Qianxue saw that there was nothing to do with herself, so she said goodbye and left. After returning to the nest, she took out the storage bag tied around her waist, poured it down, and poured out two medium-grade spirit stones, hundreds of lower-grade spirit stones, this is not counting, she took out another storage bag, there were no spirit stones in it, but there was a small shield, more than a dozen medium-grade talismans and a small bottle of elixir.

Qian Xue wasn't very excited about this, just because she didn't know what the spirit stone was of use to her. But in the face of the sudden extra "wealth", she couldn't help but think of what she had just experienced again.

It turned out that Steward Zhang called her down, not just for that resource. After Qianxue handed over the things she had picked up to Steward Zhang, she thought about returning to the hut immediately. Steward Zhang took out a storage bag and handed it to her, saying, "This is the monthly example of Daoyou this month, because Daoyou is a disciple of a ruthless real person, naturally according to the example of a monk in the foundation building period." ”

After speaking, he whispered again: "Can you move to the side room, don't you just have something to ask." ”

Qianxue was stunned, and when she arrived at the side room, the two sat down separately. Seeing Steward Zhang mysteriously take out another storage bag and hand it to her, his actions made her a little nervous, and asked in a low voice, "What does this mean?"

Steward Zhang avoided answering, and talked about irrelevant things leisurely: "Daoist friends have just entered the True First Sect, but I am afraid that I don't know that the position of steward is often changed every ten years, but there are exceptions, as long as the peak master nods, then he can be re-elected." ”

At this time, Qianxue finally understood, reached out to tie the storage bag to her waist, and said casually: "It's a lot of trouble in exchange, I see that you can do things very well, I'll talk to my senior sister when I go back." ”
