Chapter 117: Retreat and Cultivation
PS: Stable update for collection, thank you for your support!
"The flesh is good. As soon as Xue Yun entered the door, he saw an old man in a fairy robe sitting cross-legged on a futon in front of him, and said to him with a smile in his eyes.
Immediately before Xue Yun could reply, the old man's gaze instantly froze, and a monstrous sword intent burst out from his body, heading straight for Xue Yun and pressing away.
Xue Yun's complexion changed, but he didn't hesitate at all, a sharp sword roar came out from his body, and an illusory golden giant sword appeared above his head, turning into a five-clawed golden dragon in an instant, and roared wildly at the old man's location!
And the old man's sword intent also changed, and it turned into a crimson dragon, looking at its size, it was several times larger than the five-clawed golden dragon on Xue Yun's head, and it was even more permeated by the sword light on his body, as if with endless coercion.
But when the crimson dragon saw the five-clawed golden dragon on Xue Yun's head, it immediately screamed, as if it had seen the king, trembling and retreating, if its volume was not so large, I am afraid it would immediately collapse and scatter.
Seeing this scene, the old man in the Dao robe's face changed, and the Great Elder was even more incredulous.
"Sure enough, it is the best sword cultivation technique that has never been heard of or seen, and there is such an earth-shattering sword intent, as if it is the king of the sword. With a wave of the old man's right hand, the crimson dragon immediately turned into a little bit of crystal light and dissipated, and the sword intent also disappeared.
Xue Yun breathed a sigh of relief, but cold sweat also broke out on his forehead. I had a lot of thoughts in my heart, but I couldn't think of any good plan. After all, such a supreme sword technique, even if it is coveted by the old man in front of him, it is extremely normal, so it is very possible that his little life will be handed over here.
"Honghe, you retreat first!" The old man in the Taoist robe waved his right hand, and he directly issued an order to expel the guest, but the great elder did not dare to have the slightest discoloration on his face, and slowly withdrew from the stone room after bowing with his fists.
When the Great Elder left, the door to the stone chamber was immediately closed again. And the old man in the robe was smiling, carefully looking Xue Yun up and down, and the more he looked at it, the more he smiled.
And Xue Yun felt furious in his heart, quite uncomfortable, after all, it was hard to hear, he was now unable to live and die, whether his life could be saved depends on the attitude of this old man, if this old man is really greedy for his own exercises, I am afraid that today must be dead or alive.
"That one who also asked Elder Taishang what was the matter with his disciple, and the disciple would definitely go to the soup and die without giving up. Xue Yun took a step forward, looked up at the old man in the Taoist robe, and said with great anxiety.
The old man in the Taoist robe smiled slightly and said, "You don't have to be so nervous, if you really covet your exercises, I don't have to be so troublesome, just search for souls." Besides, the old man is already old, and his longevity is less than a hundred years old, even if he has a supreme practice method, it is too late. ”
"I asked you to come because I noticed you, your strength, your Dao heart, and your exercises are all my considerations. I want to hand over the future of this Pingshan Gate to you!" the old man looked at Xue Yun with a sincere gaze.
"Old man, no matter where you come from, no matter what your background is, no matter what your purpose is, all I want is you as a person, I want you to lead Pingshan Gate to glory! I don't have a long lifespan, once I fall, other sects in Pingshan Continent will immediately covet my Pingshan Gate's supremacy, and it may even be planned now!" the old man continued, there was a hint of pleading in his words, and Xue Yun couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart.
The other party was clearly a Yuanying Monk, but he said such words to a foundation building monk like him so earnestly, Xue Yun couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, and he was really moved.
But no, it is impossible for Xue Yun to restrict himself to this place because of a sect, when he came to the human realm and saw the peak cultivator of the god who had ascended to the spirit realm in the interface passage, he set his goal on the god of transformation, he wanted to return to the spirit world, and he hoped to meet the people of the spirit world again one day.
"After all, I can't stay here for long. I have a powerful inheritance, not that the people here must have known about it, and I came to Pingshan Gate just to seek a spiritual vein to practice, and that's it. Xue Yun really couldn't bear to deceive the old man in this robe, but there were too many things to explain, so he had to say so.
The old man in this robe was silent when he heard this, and with his cultivation experience, he naturally saw that Xue Yun was not lying, and under the bitter smile in his heart, he forced a smile on his face, and said to Xue Yun: "It is also common for the successive overlords of the Pingshan Continent to alternate, more than a thousand years ago, there were several Yuanying monks in my Pingshan Gate, and they were extremely prosperous, and at that time this continent was called the Pingshan Continent, but now I am afraid that it will not be long before the name change." People have their own aspirations, monks are fighting with people and fighting for their lives, you didn't deceive me perfunctorily, and it is not difficult for me to be a dying person for you, and today's affairs should not have happened!"
Immediately, before Xue Yun could reply, he felt that he was wrapped in a whirlwind around him, and after he couldn't help but exclaim, his body was swept up by the whirlwind. After about a cup of tea, when the whirlwind dispersed, it had returned to the edge of the forbidden place behind the Pingshan Gate.
"Alas!" Xue Yun sighed, glanced at the old man's cave in the back mountain with complicated eyes, then turned around and flew back to his cave mansion together.
The next day, when Nangong Yunqi came to Xue Yundong Mansion to find him to drink, he found that Xue Yundong Mansion had closed its door, and he looked like he was in retreat.
As for Meng Ping and Chen Jin, as early as the end of Dabi, they left Pingshanmen, preparing to return to their respective sects to break through the false pill as soon as possible and achieve the golden pill.
In the cave mansion, Xue Yun was playing with a jade card with one hand, holding his chin with the other hand and muttering to himself: "After this cultivation progress, it is time to meet with that Dou Guangcheng, after all, the spirit stone he promised has not been given to me yet." ”
Immediately put away the jade plate, and Xue Yun showed a trace of sadness on his face again. After all, although he first agreed to Dou Guangcheng to do a detailed job here, but this Pingshanmen is honest, but he also treats him well, if it is really the time to finally meet the outside, let himself make a move on the people who are familiar with Pingshanmen, it is really a little difficult to do it.
"Forget it, let's take a look at the remuneration given to me at that time before making a decision, and there are some things that they don't care too much about as long as they don't delay their big things. Xue Yun groaned slightly, and made a decision in his heart. In his mind, if it really came to that day, it would only be the destruction of the Pingshan Gate, after all, even the hidden Yuan Ying Taishang Elder had imagined it this way.
As for that time, it must be possible to use some means to protect some acquaintances a little, not to mention that the monk is the most important thing in himself, if it is really the mansion that will fall, in his mind, maybe Nangong Yunqi and the others will also take the initiative to surrender, and with their Tianjiao status, they will not be embarrassed so much, maybe they will still practice well.
And really fell to Pingshan Gate, Xue Yun categorically would not do it, after all, even Elder Yuanying Taishang was not sure that he could only say that kind of desperate words, he would not think that because of his own efforts, Pingshan Gate would be preserved.
"The competition during this period of time is also very helpful, and I also have a vague feeling that it is time to break through to the later stage of foundation building. Since the pill is still sufficient, then this time he will continue to cultivate until the peak of the late stage of foundation building, and become a fake pill existence. Xue Yun muttered to himself.
Immediately after Xue Yun slapped the storage bag, a large number of bottles and cans suddenly appeared in the cave, and they were densely spread on the ground. Xue Yun opened them one by one, sometimes taking out the pills to see the quality, and sometimes putting them in front of his nose to sniff one or two.
If the other foundation building cultivators saw so many pills, they would definitely be dumbfounded, not to mention that there were many spiritual elixirs that were difficult to refine in the human world, and even some of the raw materials were already extinct.
"I started taking this Bicao Dan, which is just right for me to reach the peak of the middle stage as soon as possible, and then break through to the late stage. Xue Yun grabbed his right hand while talking to himself, and a white pill bottle was grabbed by him, and a cyan pill was poured out of it, and then he took out the mysterious jade pendant that was stored close to him.
What followed was naturally a familiar process that could no longer be familiar, Xue Yun played the mysterious magic dueling again and again, and the mysterious jade pendant turned into the Wuji Ding, absorbing the elixir, and then pouring the spirit into Xue Yun's body
