Chapter 20: Retreat and Practice
"There is still a month to go, and I have to go from the middle stage of Qi cultivation to the late stage, and my body refining has not made any progress recently, so I have to hurry up and cultivate. Bai Shuo's face was full of sadness.
"You've only been in less than two months, and you've reached the middle stage of Qi cultivation, and at this rate, one month is enough. Lingmu Zhenren comforted.
Bai Shuo grinned, "I hope" After speaking, he took out the silver taels from his arms and put them on the table, asked the shopkeeper for dry food, and left with the shopkeeper with a smile on his face.
"At this time, hurry up and find a cave, and retreat and cultivate. Bai Shuo said.
Then they continued to walk in the direction of the official road, looking for a place of retreat.
Besides, Bai Ling's side, in Feng Xuanzi carrying Bai Ling, the speed is not fast, Bai Ling is still a mortal body, he can't bear such a fast speed, he can only fly slowly, and they came to the Bai family's mansion in one day.
Bai Ling pushed the door in, walking in the Bai family compound, Feng Xuanzi followed behind her, Bai Ling looked at the scenery here, obviously a lot more desolate, originally, on this path, there were many children playing here, the usual scenes appeared in Bai Ling's mind, making her tears can't help but fall.
She continued to walk, saw the previous rockery, remembered her Bai Shuo brother, in the past the two of them often climbed this rockery, they often meet early to get up, to climb this rockery, and then watch the sunrise together, Bai Ling thought of this, his eyes became red, and he cried directly, to talk about this family, the best relationship with her is Bai Shuo, his father Bai Kui is busy with family affairs all day long, and his mother does not often take care of her, because she also has a younger brother, and in this patriarchal era, she is treated a lot of unequal treatment in the family, and Bai Shuo, so he feels very sorry for Bai Ling, so he treats her like a sister。
Bai Ling continued to walk, and suddenly looked at the rockery, as if their conversation had just happened a few days ago.
"Brother, is it fun in the mountains?"
"It's not for you to go to the mountains, there are many birds of prey and beasts, and they will eat you if you are not careful!"
"Don't worry, my brother will protect you!"
These voices echoed in her ears, and Bai Ling was already squatting on the ground, crying silently.
"You lie! You said you would protect me, you said you would protect me, but why am I still here, but you are gone...... Woowoo woo ......"
Besides, Bai Shuo was walking on the official road, and suddenly sneezed twice in succession.
"Who's talking about me?"
Bai Shuo was a little confused, so he continued to walk, and after walking for nearly half a day, he found a sect, this gate was tall and towering, and a huge plaque was hung on the top of the door frame, which was engraved with three big characters of dragon flying and phoenix dancing.
"Dao Desolation Sect"
From a distance, a magnificent, ** breath naturally emanated.
This is one of the second-rate forces in Mo Tianzhou, the Dao Desolate Sect.
The Daohuang Sect has been established for a long time, and accepting disciples and training disciples is different from other sects, as long as they have their own elixir, they can worship the outer sect and become a disciple of the outer sect, which has nothing to do with talent.
And to become an inner disciple, it is more difficult, this sect holds an inner door competition every three years, and the top ten winners can become inner disciples, enjoy the Taoist desolate sect's practice secrets, as well as all kinds of elixirs.
There are also many cultivators who want to borrow here, they only need to pay the elixir to hang the name of an outer disciple here to cultivate, and in this sect, there is a towering mountain, many large and small caves under the mountain, and there is a spiritual stone vein underground, which makes the aura here rich, but it is an excellent place for cultivation.
Bai Shuo took Xiao Yin to the gate of this sect, and immediately ushered in the disciples to come out to receive them.
"This little brother wants to worship my Dao Desolate Sect?" said the man in the white robe to Bai Shuo.
"No, I want to retreat and practice here for a while, I don't know if it's convenient?" Bai Shuo bowed and saluted, and then said.
"Oh, in this way, you only need to pay two medium-grade elixirs, and you can cultivate here. The man in the white-clothed Taoist uniform smiled at Bai Shuo, obviously it was common for cultivators to come here, and he didn't think much of it.
Bai Shuo wiped the storage bag, took out two spirit gathering grasses quite painfully, and handed them to the man in front of him. These two spirit gathering grasses were obviously given to Bai Shuo by Xiao Yin when he was in the cave, although there were dozens of them, it was still a little distressing to take out two Bai Shuo at once.
After the man took it, he took out a token from his arms and said to Bai Shuo: "This is the identity token of the outer disciples of my Dao Desolate Sect, there are rules in the sect, you are not allowed to enter without a token, this is handed over to you, and you can return this token when you leave." ”
"Then thank you to this senior brother. Bai Shuo saluted, and then entered the cave under the guidance of that person.
"The aura here is really very strong, not bad, it is also an excellent place to cultivate, and look at the many dense runes engraved on this wall, it obviously has the effect of shielding the divine sense and sound insulation, little guy, cultivate well here!" Lingmu Zhenren floated out of the hairband, looked around, and said to Bai Shuo.
"Good!"
Bai Shuo walked to the cultivation room, there was a stone bench in the middle, Bai Shuo first settled Xiao Hei in another stone room, that stone room was used for resting, there was a stone bed in it, there was a table in front of the stone bed, and all kinds of fruits were placed on the table for it to eat, drink and have fun.
Then, Bai Shuo returned to the cultivation room, blocked the stone door, and then sat cross-legged on the stone bench, took out two spirit gathering grasses, put them in front of him, and slowly absorbed them, absorbing the spiritual energy in the spirit stone veins while absorbing the spiritual energy of the spirit grass.
Speaking of Bai Ling, Bai Ling was naturally immersed in pain in the Bai family, and her heart was extremely sad, her hatred for the Demon Cloud Cave was already monstrous, she secretly made a decision, in this life and this life, she would never die with the Demon Cloud Cave! At the same time, she also had hatred for Bai Kui, if Bai Kui hadn't made such a decision, all of them would not have died.
Then she forcibly pressed the memories of the past in her heart, and walked straight to the Bai family hall, her face and temperament seemed to have undergone earth-shaking changes, to say that her changes, before she belonged to the eyebrows with a smile, lively and lovely, like a lark, with joy all day long, and now she is cold, ruddy eyes, if her hair is carefully looked, there is a little white silk, you know, a twelve or thirteen child has white silk on his hair, no one will believe it, but this matter has been placed in front of him, and it is impossible to believe it.
She pushed open the door of the hall, walked in, and saw Bai Kui who was flipping through the books on the desk, at this time Bai Kui also heard the movement of opening the door, and saw Bai Ling, so he said to Bai Ling with a loving smile: "Ling'er, why did you come back early, can't you stand the days in the mountains?" Alas, don't blame your father for saying you, you have also grown up, you can't be willful, who sent you back this time?"
"It's the old man. Feng Xuanzi quietly walked in from the side hall.
At this time, Bai Kui was taken aback, to say that this room can enter the door is only this one, if Feng Xuanzi comes in, he will definitely know, at this time the window is still closed, Bai Kui immediately guessed that this person must be an immortal, after all, he has been the patriarch for so many years, he is not a dull person.
"Master, leave it to me. Bai Ling said to Feng Xuanzi.
Feng Xuanzi nodded slightly, then found a place to sit down and closed his eyes.
Bai Kui was still a little restrained before, for fear of saying the wrong thing and offending this immortal, but when he heard Bai Ling call this person a master, his face was full of joy.
