By the time Yi Lan found Xiang Yun, it was already the morning of the next day. The moment she saw Xiang Yun, Yi Lan was shocked. At this moment, Xiang Yun's face was a look that Yi Lan had never seen before, full of decadence and despair, Yi Lan didn't know what was going on, only that Xiang Yun had never had such a helpless look when he was demoted to a low-level disciple seven years ago. Yi Lan was very worried in her heart, patted Xiang Yun's shoulder, stood next to Xiang Yun without saying a word, and said softly, "It's okay, there is me!" Yi Lan was very puzzled, but she didn't have a clue at all, and she didn't know what was going on.

Xiang Yun gradually recovered from his grief, looked at Yi Lan with a worried face, and smiled reluctantly.

"I'm fine, you don't have to worry...... Let's go back. ”

Yi Lan didn't ask Xiang Yun, just said softly, "It's okay." Xiang Yun looked at Yi Lan gratefully and did not speak.

Back in the stone room, because Xiang Yun hadn't eaten or eaten all day and night, Yi Lan decided to go out and find something to eat and come back. was about to go out, and suddenly turned back with some unease, "Xiaoyun, no matter what happens, we have to live strong and make ourselves stronger, so that we won't be hurt!" and then walked out regardless of whether Xiang Yun heard it clearly or not.

Xiang Yun suddenly figured it out, since no one can predict the road ahead, it is useless to worry about it, as long as he is strong enough, no matter what the demon realm or the immortal realm, he can come and go freely. Xiang Yun didn't choose to tell Yi Lan about the invasion of the Demon Realm, firstly because he had an oath to Qinghe first, and secondly, he didn't want Yi Lan's state of mind to be affected and affect Yi Lan's cultivation.

After all, there are people who care about him, after all, there are people he wants to protect, and he must become stronger. Xiang Yun silently put pressure on himself in his heart, he wants to become stronger, he wants to live forever!

Taking a deep breath, Xiang Yun calmed down and forced himself not to think about those things for a while. took out a few items that Qinghe gave him: first of all, the storage bag containing the elixir, Xiang Yun took out the bottle containing the pill of the Qi refining period, which was undoubtedly all the elixir, that is, the elixir issued by Yanyunmen to low-level disciples, Xiang Yun had never seen so many elixirs, you know, although the elixir can only be regarded as a low-level elixir in the elixir, but in a small sect like Yanyunmen, it is still quite precious, I am afraid that Xiang Yun is now holding more than the entire Yanyunmen survives. It should have been collected after Qinghe came to the human world, or he tried to bring it down from the immortal world, Xiang Yun took a closer look, these pills seemed to be purer in color, and they should be of better quality.

The second bag contains some spirit treasures used in the Qi refining period, which should have been specially prepared for him by Qinghe, Xiang Yun took back this storage bag after looking at it, as far as he is concerned, the spiritual power is far from enough to use the spirit treasure, and finding a way to improve his cultivation is the top priority. In the end, Xiang Yun was attracted by the bead with a mysterious origin.

Xiang Yun stared at this bead, and suddenly felt a palpitation, feeling that this bead was very similar to a human eyeball. Xiang Yun's eyes felt a tingling, and it seemed that this bead couldn't be stared at for a long time.

But the origin is really mysterious, Xiang Yun thought to himself, because he doesn't have a divine sense yet, so he can't open the storage space in it for the time being. Xiang Yun put away the beads, and the heart path will one day figure out where it came from.

Xiang Yun sat cross-legged, swallowed a spirit pill, and began to exhale according to the basic exercises of Yanyun Gate. The medicinal power of the Fixing Spirit Pill quickly spread, and in the process of spitting into the clouds, the spiritual power in the pill was guided to circulate in the Great Zhou Tian, transforming it into its own spiritual power, and finally returning to the dantian. Circle by circle, Xiang Yun felt that the spiritual power in his body was constantly increasing.

Suddenly, without warning, Xiang Yun felt that the spiritual power in his body had skyrocketed, and some dirt appeared on his skin. Immediately, he found that the spiritual power silk in his body had changed from one to two, which meant that he had broken through the first layer of qi refining and reached the second layer of qi refining.

Xiang Yun opened his eyes, a little incredulous, he had tried to break through the layer for so many years and succeeded like this? He was a little puzzled, this breakthrough process was not as slow as before, as if everything was like a matter of course, and it was naturally completed.

In fact, after all, this is also related to Xiang Yun's state of mind, before that, he was cautious, afraid that he would fail again. And this time he had just experienced a great sorrow, and there were no distracting thoughts in his heart, so he was naturally much more relaxed. Of course, this is also inseparable from Qinghe's higher-quality elixir.

Xiang Yun pushed open the door, walked out, found a river, and washed the dirt from his body. Xiang Yun suddenly thought of a question, he is now a wood attribute spiritual power, if the spiritual power disappears and becomes the spiritual power of other attributes, is he still a second layer? So the joy just now was replaced by a face full of worry, but this question will not be verified for a while, and Xiang Yun will temporarily let go of his tangled heart.

In the hut, Yi Lan had already returned with a pheasant, and when she learned that Xiang Yun had broken through the first floor, she was so excited that she almost danced. But then he seemed to think of something again, his eyes were a little dim, and he looked like he wanted to say something.

Xiang Yun saw that Yi Lan's expression was a little wrong, and vaguely guessed what he wanted to say, and his finally calm heart began to ache again. Xiang Yun sighed and said, "You want to say my master," Xiang Yun paused when he said the word master, he realized that he would never have the opportunity to call Qinghe "master" again in the future, and he couldn't help but lose control of his emotions, but he still choked up and continued, "My master and his old man immortal have passed away, right?" After speaking, Xiang Yun closed his eyes and controlled himself not to cry.

Yi Lan was silent, not knowing how to tell Xiang Yun about this, Xiang Yun should have known that Qinghe would die, so he behaved so desperate and decadent. He took out two jars of wine and said to Xiang Yun: "Xiaoyun, I have no parents since I was a child, I can't understand the feeling of losing my loved ones, and I don't know how to comfort you, but I can get drunk with you once." ”

Xiang Yun drank bowl by bowl, in front of Yi Lan, he didn't need any disguise.

Yi Lan was also a little drunk, "Xiaoyun, in fact, I envy you very much, you have had the love of your parents, and there is a master who loves you so much, and since you were a child, you are the first and only person who is good to me, if you feel uncomfortable, you can cry!" Xiang Yun finally couldn't control it, tears poured out like a, and mixed into his mouth with the wine. Xiang Yun only said, "Xiao Yi, your wine is so bitter and salty." ”

"Cultivating immortals, cultivating immortals, what kind of immortals do we cultivate, even immortals are indispensable to the reincarnation of the Heavenly Dao, and there are problems that immortals can't solve, Xiao Yi, what do you say we are pursuing?" Xiang Yun suddenly laughed, his smile was shocking, his face was full of helplessness and confusion, where was the laughter, it was clearly a silent cry.

Until late at night, the two fell drunk at the table. And this scene will be an unforgettable scene for Xiang Yun in his life.

A long, long time later, Xiang Yun still remembers that when he was the saddest, he had a good brother with him, and he remembered that there was a person who accompanied him to get drunk and cry together.
