Chapter 137: Speech
At that moment, the few traces of anger in Qin Bufan's heart gradually subsided. Although it was true that the old man's previous actions were a little reckless, his intentions were always good. Qin Bufan naturally wouldn't blame this old man much.
So, after the old man finished bowing to him, Qin Bufan even said something unreasonable.
After the old man heard Qin Bufan's words, he also let go of the guilt in his heart.
Then, the old man stared at Qin Bufan carefully for a few more times, and then asked, "Qin Bufan, since you plan to join my Immortal Cloud Sect, do you know the specific situation of my Immortal Cloud Sect?"
As soon as Qin Bufan spoke, one of the disciples of the crowd who had been standing aside without opening his mouth stood up, bowed respectfully to the old man, and then said, "Elder Hui, before you come, we have already introduced Qin Daoyou clearly. ”
"Oh? The old man raised his eyebrows, looked at Qin Bufan, and then said to him: "Since these disciples have already introduced you to the specific situation of my Immortal Cloud Sect, then the old man asks you, Qin Bufan, have you planned which hall you want to go to?"
"This ......" After listening to the old man's words, Qin Bufan was speechless for a while, unable to think of how to answer the old man's question.
Seeing that Qin Bufan's face was embarrassed, the old man couldn't help but frown, and looked at Qin Bufan suspiciously, "Qin Bufan, since you have clearly understood the situation of my Immortal Cloud Sect's various halls, what are you still hesitating about?"
"It's not, it's just ......" Qin Bufan's face showed hesitation, as if he had something in his heart, but he was hesitating whether he should say it or not.
When the old man saw Qin Bufan's appearance, his brows furrowed even tighter, "But what, Qin Bufan, since you already know the situation of each hall of my Immortal Cloud Sect, then choose a hall that suits you." Men should be refreshing and sharp, and they can't be too hesitant to do things. ”
"Actually, alas!" Qin Bufan sighed deeply, and then continued: "Actually, dissatisfied elder, although the disciple has already understood the specific situation of each hall of the Xianyun Sect, the disciple has thought about it, but he has not found a place that is truly suitable for him. ”
Hearing Qin Bufan's words, the old man couldn't help but be stunned, and after looking at Qin Bufan with a look that I couldn't understand what you were talking about, he continued: "Oh, Qin Bufan, the old man doesn't understand what you are saying, since you already know the specific situation of each hall of my Xianyun Sect, then you just need to choose the most suitable hall for yourself according to your own situation." Why don't you say you haven't found a place that suits you?"
"This ......" After listening to the old man's words, Qin Bufan thought about it in his heart, and finally made up his mind and said the words that had been hidden in his heart: "Since you asked so, Elder, then the disciple will no longer hide from Elder." In fact, what the disciple wanted to say was that I thought about it and always felt that if I chose the same path of cultivating immortals as other monks, the disciple was really not sure that I would be able to build a successful foundation before the longevity was exhausted and I sat down. ”
"Oh, I see. After listening to Qin Bufan's words, the old man understood what Qin Bufan was struggling with in his heart. But when he took a closer look at Qin Bufan, he saw that Qin Bufan was already at the seventh level of qi refining at a young age, and he couldn't help but be surprised.
"Hey, Qin Bufan, you are already at the seventh level of the Qi Refining Stage at a young age, could it be that you are the spirit body of the two spirit roots or the alien spirit roots?" the old man looked at Qin Bufan in surprise and asked with a surprised expression.
"This ...... The elder misunderstood, the disciple was not a two-spirit root, nor was it a strange spirit root, and the disciple was just a spirit body of the three-spirit root. Qin Bufan saw the old man's surprised face and said with a wry smile.
"Hmm? Qin Bufan, are you playing tricks on the old man? Seeing that you are only seventeen or eighteen years old, you say that you are the spirit body of the three spirit roots, the old man really can't believe it. Could it be that you have cultivated immortals since childhood? If this is the case, then it can be explained clearly. The old man stroked his beard with one hand and said with a thoughtful expression.
Seeing that the old man didn't wait for him to tell the real reason, Qin Bufan had already begun to guess on his own, and he felt very funny in his heart at the moment.
Although this old man gave him a good impression before, no matter how stupid Qin Bufan was, it was impossible for him to tell him the truth. I don't want to be calculated by people with a heart, if I say that my cultivation speed is so fast today, it is because I have piled up a large number of spirit stones. Then Qin Bufan can foresee, within three days, it may become a dry bone in the barren mountains and mountains!
This is not a joke, although Qin Bufan is now at the seventh level of the Qi Refining Period, he is confident that even if he can't beat those monks who are higher than him in the Qi Refining Period, then he will at least be able to escape safely. But now that Qin Bufan has seen the strength of this old man, he has truly understood that no matter how many magic weapons he has and how fast he escapes, in the eyes of these monks in the foundation building period, he is just an ant that can be easily pinched to death!
Therefore, Qin Bufan naturally would not indirectly reveal the news that he had a large number of spirit stones on his body, so Qin Bufan used the same statement as those monks before to recount the old man.
After listening to the story that Qin Bufan made up, this old man didn't ask any suspicious questions like those monks, but he just sighed a few words, maybe it was Qin Bufan's good creation, which led to the fact that in the dark, the Dao Master gave him the elixir, which caused his previous cultivation speed to be so fast.
After sighing, the old man suddenly frowned again, and after thinking carefully for a few breaths, he asked suspiciously: "No, Qin Bufan, since you said that it was because that senior gave you the elixir that your previous cultivation speed was so fast." But if that's the case, then why do you say that you don't have the confidence to succeed in building a foundation?"
When Qin Bufan heard the old man's words, he was also stunned in his heart.
But Qin Bufan is so smart, but after thinking about it for a few breaths in his head, he came up with a wonderful saying: "Well...... To tell the truth, in fact, the disciple said that he did not have the confidence to be able to build a foundation, because in the past few years of cultivation, the disciple had gradually felt that the medicinal effect of the elixir in his body seemed to be slowly disappearing. Although the disciple is still meditating every day, it may be the reason why the effect of the elixir is about to end, and the disciple has been meditating for a long time these days, and the speed of mana growth has not been as good as before. Therefore, the disciple said that he did not have the confidence to succeed in building the foundation. ”
The old man listened to Qin Bufan's nonsense explanation, looked at Qin Bufan's face, and saw that Qin Bufan had a dignified face, and there was no trace of cunning on his face, so he didn't doubt too much and said immediately:
"So that's the case, if it's really like what you said, then it seems that the medicinal effect of the elixir that the senior gave you has begun to weaken, and maybe it won't be long before you will completely lose your freedom. ”
Qin Bufan saw that the old man did not have the slightest doubt about his words, and he couldn't help but be happy in his heart, but his face did not show the slightest flaw, and he deliberately made a thoughtful appearance at the moment, and said to the old man suspiciously:
"The elder is right, in fact, this is what the disciple is worried about. I wonder if there is any way for my predecessors to prolong the effect of this medicine?"
"Well...... The old man will tell you the truth, from the beginning of my cultivation to now, it has been more than one hundred and thirty years, and the time I have been in our Immortal Cloud Sect is considered long enough, but the old man has never heard of any methods that can prolong the effect of the elixir. The old man smiled and said slowly.
But speaking of this, the old man frowned again, and then said: "Maybe there is a way to prolong the effect of the elixir on this Tianyuan Continent, but the old man can tell you clearly, you better not pin your future on the effect of that elixir." In the cultivation of our generation of monks, we should take one step at a time, and rely on our own efforts in a down-to-earth manner, rather than relying on external help. ”
The old man naturally didn't know that the elixir that Qin Bufan said was made up by him, so he was very kind enough to give Qin Bufan a long speech.
When Qin Bufan heard the old man's words, although he felt a little funny in his heart, he also knew that the old man was thinking about his future, so he didn't show any impatience. Just listened to the old man's words with a serious face.
But when Qin Bufan heard the old man say that maybe there was really a way to prolong the effect of the elixir on this Tianyuan Continent, he couldn't help but move in his heart, and secretly kept this matter in his heart.
"Oh, I see. But if that's the case, then according to the elders, is there any hope for the disciple to build a foundation in this life?" Qin Bufan changed the topic and asked with a sincere look at the old man.
"Haha, Qin Bufan, the old man doesn't know how to tell fortunes, how do you know if you can successfully build a foundation in this life. The old man was made to laugh at Qin Bufan's question, and then continued: "But the old man can tell you that this road of cultivating immortals is destined to be a road full of thorns, on this road, there are countless dry bones falling on the road, even the old man, there is no absolute confidence that he will be able to ascend to immortal in the future." What the future holds is in your own hands. ”
Qin Bufan listened to the old man's words, and he had a lot of feelings in his heart. Just like what this old man said, even if he Qin Bufan was a spirit body of the Heavenly Spirit Root, it could not give an absolute guarantee that he would be able to feather and ascend to immortal in the future. Whether the future will become an immortal or fall back into reincarnation is in his own hands.
But although this was the case, Qin Bufan also knew that he had to work his own, so he continued to say to the old man at the moment:
"The disciple understands what the elder means, but what the disciple actually wants to say is that although I know that the good or bad of this future can only be revealed through my own efforts, I think the elder should also understand that the disciple is just a spirit body of the three spirit roots, and if he follows the same path as other monks, then the success rate of foundation building in the future may be negligible. ”
"This ......" The old man was speechless for a while when he heard Qin Bufan's words, and he didn't know how to answer Qin Bufan's words.
