Since the age of mythology, the realm of gods has been closed, and the two worlds of immortals and demons have dominated all walks of life, fighting each other endlessly. And the human world, as the interface with the most vigorous reproduction power, has gradually come out of the decline of the mythical era and become prosperous, with nine major states appearing, and there are countless immortal cultivators. Until now......

Qingzhou, Yanyun Gate, a long sigh came from a stone room where ordinary disciples lived. Xiang Yun opened his eyes, dressed in purple, his appearance was extraordinary, although his eyes were full of helplessness and bitterness, he still couldn't hide the hidden sharpness, his facial features were embedded in his face like stars and moons, his hands were a little clumsy in comparison, but his gestures were so natural and coordinated.

It has been ten years since Xiang Yun joined Yanyunmen, ten years ago he was still a child, living in a small village in Qingzhou, carefree. But the nightmare came so suddenly, waking up one night, the whole village was dead, and a fire took everyone away: his parents, relatives, and friends were all killed in the fire, and he was saved by an elder passing by Yanyunmen.

Perhaps because of his love for talent, this elder brought him into Yanyun Gate and accepted him under the door. Because of his extraordinary talent, he cultivated very quickly, and he cultivated to the Great Perfection of Qi Cultivation in five years, and was designated as a core disciple by Yanyunmen to cultivate. However, what happened next was unexpected, causing him to fall off the altar and become a laughing stock - Xiang Yun suddenly fell into a demon when he was practicing, but fortunately his master found out in time and saved his life, but his cultivation was destroyed after all.

All this, as if it happened just yesterday, is like a dream, but it is a nightmare.

Thinking of this, Xiang Yun couldn't help but sigh that the world was unpredictable.

"Xiaoyun!" a hearty laugh came from outside the door. The corners of Xiang Yun's mouth moved, revealing a hint of a smile, the person who came was Yi Lan, who was also a low-level disciple after Xiang Yun was demoted to a low-level disciple.

Since Xiang Yun was demoted to a low-level disciple, there were cold words around him, and the disciples in the sect were very "caring" of this declining genius, only Yi Lan treated him as a friend, although he was also hostile to other disciples because of this.

"Xiao Yi, have you found anything to eat?" Xiang Yun frowned slightly and asked. "Alas, don't mention it, I originally hit a hare, but I met Li Yuanxiu on the way back. Speaking of this, the two looked at each other speechlessly, Li Yuanxiu was the core disciple newly cultivated by Yanyunmen after Xiang Yun was abandoned, and his cultivation was quite profound, but he had a lot of complaints about Xiang Yun.

"I'm bothering you again," Xiang Yun said with a wry smile.

"No, it's because we're not strong enough to protect ourselves!

Xiang Yun's heart seemed to be torn apart fiercely, he thought that he had already walked out of the pain of losing the cultivation talent he was proud of five years ago, but he didn't expect that it had always been there.

Maybe some scars will always be there, never disappear, only forgotten until they are uncovered again!

He suddenly had a desire, he wanted to become stronger, he wanted to become stronger at all costs, he wanted to protect the people he wanted to protect! However, he also knew how difficult it was to re-cultivate, for five full years, he had only cultivated to the first level of Qi cultivation, while ordinary beginner disciples could only cultivate to the first level in a few months.

"Xiao Yi, I'll go out and find some food again!" "Cultivators in the Qi cultivation period still can't completely clear the valley and need a small amount of food.

Xiang Yun walked out of the stone room, which was where the low-level disciples lived. Originally, Xiang Yun lived in the independent cave mansion of the core disciples, but because of the loss of cultivation, it would cause many people to be jealous and red-eyed, so despite his master's strong opposition, he resolutely moved to the residence of the low-level disciples. At this time, it was evening, and many disciples were cultivating in the compound, those who had a higher cultivation were trying gravity techniques and wanted to grab the stones on the ground, while those who were slightly worse were meditating and absorbing spiritual energy.

Xiang Yun was about to pass directly through these people, when suddenly someone shouted a waste, and the disciples of the cultivators opened their eyes one after another, and when they saw Xiang Yun, they closed their eyes again without interest.

Yes, after five years, everyone is too lazy to mock him, and I believe that it won't be long before Xiang Yun will be forgotten by this group of disciples.

Xiang Yun felt a tingling pain in his heart and quickly left here. Soon he came to a valley and carefully found a trap in which two little rabbits were lying. This is where he often catches his prey, and sets a lot of traps, which often pay off.

Xiang Yun held a rabbit in one hand, performed a light body technique, and the figure walked back. After a while, he felt that the spiritual power in his body was insufficient, so he took the light body technique, sat down, and exhaled the aura of heaven and earth according to the inner exercises. After a while, the spiritual power in the body became saturated and could not be inhaled, and at the dantian in the body, a thin trace of spiritual power slowly operated. This is all the spiritual power of Xiang Yun, and the spiritual power of the first layer of Qi cultivation is probably so much.

Back in the stone room, Xiang Yun and Yi Lan ate a delicious roast rabbit, and finally didn't go hungry, Xiang Yun suddenly had some hope for tomorrow, after all, there was still food, and there could be such a good brother, why did he think so much?

In the middle of the night, Xiang Yun tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, his eyelids were faintly jumping, as if something was about to happen. "Tomorrow is the day of the pill distribution, don't let anything happen!" Xiang Yun thought to himself, but he was even more uneasy. Looking at the sleeping Yi Lan, he sat up cross-legged, ready to try to break through the first layer again.

Xiang Yun began to exhale, and the aura was constantly inhaled into his body, and it was constantly discharged from his body, and there seemed to be no change, and there was no change in the spiritual power silk in his body. Still thin, but he didn't give up.

Time passed slowly, half an hour, an hour......

Suddenly, Xiang Yun felt that the spiritual power silk in his body had grown, the color had thickened, and there was a tendency to split. Xiang Yun was very excited in his heart, this was the sign of entering the second layer of qi refining, when this piece of spiritual power silk split into two pieces, he became a monk of the second layer of qi refining.

Closer, closer, Xiang Yun's clothes were soaked with sweat because of nervousness, and at this moment, the mutation suddenly occurred, and the spiritual power in Xiang Yun's body disappeared completely, and the second layer that was about to advance was not successful because of this!

What's even more terrifying is that if someone checks Xiang Yun's body at this time. It will be found that at this time, Xiang Yun did not have any spiritual power on his body, the spiritual root completely dissipated, and the source of spiritual power disappeared without a trace. In other words, at this time, Xiang Yun is no longer a monk, but a mortal through and through!

Xiang Yun was stunned, and shook his head with a bitter face, it was like this again. Since the accident five years ago, he has found that his spiritual power sometimes disappears for no reason, and then after a few hours, it automatically recovers, and the attributes of the spiritual root will also change. I didn't expect this time to have this problem, is it providence?

Xiang Yun walked out of the stone room with some irritability, looked at the sky and fell into deep thought, and in a trance he saw a red moon appear in the sky, and when he looked closely, it returned to white.

Xiang Yun rubbed his eyes and laughed at himself, "It seems that it's time to take a good rest, and I'm hallucinating." ”
