Chapter 197: Turnaround

In the dark night, there was a slight glimmer of light, and the shadows in the dark corners flickered, like a silent and lonely fate.

The bird tilted its head on the roof of the carriage and suddenly "croaked" twice, its appearance was so bright and beautiful, but its call sounded like a crow, low and hoarse as if it had a sense of ominousness.

Ling Chunni's body trembled for no reason, and he looked at the strange bird, feeling a little nervous.

The sound of the wheels rolling over the bluestone road was the sound of the carriage moving smoothly, the carriage was silent, and the man in front of the carriage did not seem to notice the situation in the dark corner at all. On the contrary, the little bird, after stopping for a moment, suddenly flew up again, landed in front of the carriage, and then probed its head to reach the curtain hanging in front of the carriage, and even raised a claw to grasp it.

It's just that the bird's movements in the past are still a little clumsy, and it is always hard to grasp the east and west, and it looks a little annoyed when it stares at the curtain. It was at this moment that a low chuckle suddenly came from the carriage, a gentle and low laugh, and then a hand reached out, gently lifting the curtain a little, revealing a gap.

The little bird raised its head, showing a bit of arrogance, as if it was unimpressed to help the people in the carriage, and looked like I could casually enter even if you didn't come, and then the soles of his feet fluttered a few times, and he got into the carriage with a whoosh.

The curtain fell again, cutting off the inside and outside of the carriage, and everything seemed to be calm again, and the middle-aged man who was driving the carriage glanced at the dark night around him, and then continued to drive the carriage forward, gradually disappearing into the dark long street.

Watching the carriage gradually move away, Ling Chunni's heart slowly let go, and he breathed a sigh of relief, and then found that it was just this time, and a lot of cold sweat actually oozed from his palm.

The night wind blew, and Ling Chunni on the long street shivered, and it was actually a little cold.

At this moment, a low but clear snort suddenly came from behind her, Ling Chunni was taken aback, and quickly turned to look, only to see Shen Shi, who was sitting on the ground in the corner of the wall, slowly opened his eyes, and after a while, he actually stood up.

Ling Chunni was stunned at first, then overjoyed, and said in surprise: "Stone, are you okay?"

Shen Shi smiled, and there was a hint of hesitation in his expression, but after a while, he nodded and said, "It should be fine." ”

Ling Chunni pressed his hand to his chest, as if his whole person had relaxed, and said, "It's okay, it's okay, the way you looked just now scared me to death." ”

Shen Shi smiled, walked over and hugged her gently, and then after a moment of silence, he said: "Chunni, after this incident, most of those people's identities are really disciples from the Yuan Shi Sect, we can't say it...... I had to go back for the time being. Saying that, he also had a little more apology on his face, gently touched Ling Chunni's hair, and said softly,

"Chunni, I'm really sorry, I know you actually want to have a good time in this Tianhong City......"

"No, don't!" Ling Chunni's slightly hurried words interrupted Shen Shi's words, looking at Shen Shi's somewhat surprised gaze, Ling Chunni bit his lip, lowered his head slightly, and said in a low voice: "It's all my fault, if it weren't for me, you wouldn't have had a dispute with those people, maybe there will be endless troubles in the future, that's ...... But after the saints. I, I, I don't want to play at all, I knew I really shouldn't have come out......"

In the end, Ling Chunni's eyes seemed to be a little red, Shen Shi shook his head, but he smiled, hugged her and patted her delicate cheek, and said with a smile: "What's the matter with you, such villains are rampant, is it our fault?" Besides, what about the saints, if I remember correctly, except for the Gan family Ding Buwang here in my master's Lingxiao Sect, the other five sage families are all born and reproduced, and under 10,000 years, I am afraid that there are no less than 10,000 people in each family, so Song Pi may not necessarily be a person with a noble status. ”

Speaking of this, he paused, a smile flashed across his soft face, and said: "Take a step back, even if they are powerful, we can't afford to provoke them, so we can hide far away, the world is so big, they may not be able to find us." ”

Ling Chunni sighed, looking a little relieved. Shen Shi pulled her out, and said at the same time: "Without further ado, no matter how you say that the Yuan Shimen is also one of the four righteous and famous gates, it should not be underestimated, let's leave overnight, so as not to cause more trouble." ”

Ling Chunni nodded and walked with him, but suddenly seemed to think of something, but a thought turned in his heart, thinking that when Shen Shi reported the origin of his master to those people before this, why didn't he say that it was Ling Xiaozong, but instead said that it was 'Heavenly Sword Palace', and who was that person called Nangong Ying, why did this name sound a little like the name of his daughter's family?

She looked at Shen Shi's back from behind, her lips moved slightly, but she wanted to speak and stopped.

Isn't it best to ask so much what to do, as long as we are together now, happy and happy?

She thought so, then smiled, took his hand, and focused her eyes on him, following Shen Shi's steps, gradually walking towards the dark distance.

※※※

Leaving Tianhong City and going straight to the Battle Island, he left by the Ancient Teleportation Circle, and after transferring twice in a row, Shen Shi was relieved. No matter how powerful the Yuan Shimen or Song Pi were, it would be impossible to search the territory after the teleportation twice overnight.

If he didn't have Ling Chunni by his side, Shen Shi might not be so cautious, but Ling Chunni's Taoism was indeed too poor, and once something happened to him when he faced such a strong cultivator, he would have almost no power to protect himself, so he couldn't help but be careless. Because of this, he even took the opportunity to leave Tianhong City with Ling Chunni overnight at the first moment after recovering, and he didn't even pay close attention to the situation that had just calmed down in his body.

However, after making sure that the two of them were indeed safe, Shen Shi put down his heart and re-examined his body, and after repeated confirmation and inspection, Shen Shi was a little surprised, and found that the initial judgment after he woke up was not wrong.

He's actually promoted.

From the realm of the initial level of the Ning Yuan Realm, he has broken through to the middle level of the Ning Yuan Realm.

In the cultivation of monks, in addition to the initial refining of qi, the remaining three realms of Ning Yuan, Divine Will, and Yuan Dan, the dantian qi sea has not changed much, and the most important key point is the spiritual power that Wanchuan returns to the sea and contains in the dantian.

In the realm of condensation, the spiritual power is like a mist, ethereal and permeated in the dantian, from the first level to the middle level to the highest level, the spiritual power is condensed and refined layer by layer, and it is in the momentum of breakthrough, and it suddenly turns into a stream of gold liquid, and then it reaches the realm of divine will. At this realm, the essence of spiritual power is ten times purer than that of Ning Yuan, and the monk has been able to cultivate strong supernatural powers, and the Dao method has been refined, and he has earth-shattering power.

And those who are gifted and brave and diligent, and then go straight to the Yuan Dan, and when they practice to the depths, the incomparable dantian spiritual water is condensed and condensed, turning into a mysterious and infinite Yuan Shen Ling Pill, so that they can fly to the sky and the earth, and there is an unpredictable divine power of ghosts and gods.

Such a profound and magical realm was still too far away for Shen Shi, but what happened to him at this moment was that after the Pure Heart Mantra urged the mysterious condensed spiritual power in his eyebrows, after calming down the out-of-control spiritual power in the qi veins in his body, he devoured all the spiritual power one by one, and then somehow all of them flowed backwards and rushed into his dantian qi sea.

At the moment when countless spiritual power was poured into the dantian, Shen Shi only felt that his whole body was shaken, and his entire body seemed to be torn in all directions by an incomparably powerful force in an instant, and he saw that the next moment there would be a miserable end like the five horses splitting their bodies, but at that critical moment, a golden light suddenly flashed in his dantian, and it was actually a dragon-patterned golden armor that slowly shone brightly, sticking to the four walls of his dantian qi sea in a moment, and it was actually with an indestructible momentum to firmly protect his qi sea.

The spiritual power frantically poured into the dantian, but he couldn't find an outlet, and after entering the dantian, the spiritual power of the eyebrows was still devouring the spiritual power around him frantically, gradually, Shen Shi felt that the spiritual power in the dantian in his body was slowly reduced, and then from the appearance of such a violent torrent and huge waves, it turned into a gentle lake little by little, and finally it was calm and completely stabilized.

And when he got here, when he took a closer look, he found that the spiritual power in his body had completely improved from the quality, and both the degree of refinement and condensation was far superior to the first level of the Ning Yuan Realm, reaching the level of the middle level of the Ning Yuan Realm. The only fly in the ointment was that Shen Shi soon discovered that the spiritual power in the mysterious hole in the center of the eyebrows, which had existed since his cultivation, had almost completely dissipated.

It was only when he looked carefully inward that he found that there was still a trace of spiritual power left in the center of his eyebrows, which was almost equal to negligible spiritual power.

This is a blessing or a curse, and Shen Shi himself can't tell the difference.

However, the Ning Yuan Intermediate Rank that he had thought would take many years of cultivation to spy on was actually achieved like this, which really made him a little unbelievable. Recalling this process, Shen Shi's heart was full of doubts, could it be that it was all the effect of the mysterious demon method of the Yin and Yang Mantra?

With this doubt, Shen Shi and Ling Chunni returned to Liuyun City during the day on the second day.

Shen Shi had too many questions in his heart, including that the realm still needed to be stable, and whether such a strange advance would have an impact on his Dao behavior and even the use of various Five Elements Dao techniques. So in the end, Shen Shi still sent Ling Chunni to the Xu family's mansion, let her live again for a while temporarily, and he went back to Jinhongshan early.

Before leaving, he smiled and agreed with Ling Chunni that he would go to Tianhong City next time.

Ling Chunni agreed with a smile, including the two jars of bamboo leaf green wine, and Shen Shi also left one for her. It's just that when she turned around and slowly walked to her room with the wine jar in her arms, for some reason, she suddenly felt like crying.

Maybe she heard something and saw something, when Ling Chunni silently returned to the house, the door behind her was suddenly pushed open again, but it was Zhong Qingzhu standing there, his expression calm and indifferent, he looked at her, and then his eyes fell on the altar of bamboo leaf green wine, and suddenly said:

"What is this?"

Ling Chunni wiped the corners of his eyes, as if he was happy all of a sudden, beckoned to Zhong Qingzhu, and said with a smile:

"Qingzhu, come here. This is a fine wine, called Zhuye Qing, do you want to drink it?"

"Bamboo leaves and green ......" Zhong Qingzhu said in a low voice, his eyebrows raised slightly.
