Chapter 1: Growing Up
It's another year of swallow returning, and the spring sun pours down from the sky, shining on the young man's body, warm, and people can't help but want to moan.
The young man was dressed in a green robe, sitting cross-legged, his slender and white hands were on his knees, condensing a strange imprint, and his slightly immature face was full of calm and indifference, but the two frowning thin eyebrows showed the solemnity in his heart.
As the boy breathed for a long time, air currents that were imperceptible to the naked eye slowly flowed out of the surface of his body, and more condensed air currents seeped into his body.
Although there was no wind, the wide green robe on the young man's body was blown to hunt, and it was strange to look at it from a distance.
"Boom" A low voice sounded from the body and fell to the ears, but it was no less than a thunderclap. The young man suddenly opened his eyes, and two substantial rays of light burst out.
Standing up, stretching out his palm, the spiritual power worked slightly, a gust of wind blew, and in the courtyard, the big tree that was hugged by two people shook violently, and it fell to the ground in an instant, raising dust in the sky, and shrouded the entire courtyard in a fog.
At the time of a cup of tea, the dust cleared, and the young man's tall and upright figure appeared, as well as the delicate face that smiled like the sun.
"Young Master, Young Master, what's wrong with you, what's going on?" A middle-aged man in a black shirt hurriedly came to the courtyard, his face was full of anxiety, and he was relieved when he saw the fallen tree on the ground and the young figure standing on the side.
"I'm fine, it's just a slight breakthrough in cultivation, and I can't help but show it, if it's not in the way, Uncle Lao Wang is worried. The boy said in harmony with a hint of apology on his face.
"What are you talking about, the master and the young master treat me well, it is my duty to take care of the young master, and, young master, don't call it Uncle Wang anymore, the old slave really can't afford it." Wang Qi's heart was very moved, but he still said respectfully.
"Uncle Wang is not old at all, don't say anything about old slaves, I see, Uncle Wang will have to wait another thousand years to reach the old word. The young man suddenly smiled, blinked his eyes, and said.
"Then borrow the young master's auspicious words," Wang Qi smiled bitterly and said.
The young master is still so gentle, Wang Qi's heart is not without emotion.
That's right, sweeping the entire Purple Leaf Star, which young master and son of any family will treat their subordinates as human beings, and if they have a little bit of cultivation talent, they will be arrogant all day long, and treat mortals as ants, pigs, and dogs.
Only this Ye Shaoling, as the only grandson of Ye Chen, the deacon of the Purple Leaf Star Source Sect, in terms of identity, looking at the entire Purple Leaf Star, there will be no one higher than him, in terms of talent, he stepped into the peak of the tenth layer of Qi refining at the age of twelve, and in the small second-level edge star of the Purple Leaf Star, it can be said that no one can stand out. Obviously, his identity and talent are extremely powerful, but Ye Shaoling always has a gentle appearance and is very approachable.
I hope God will bless the young master to be so happy all the time, looking at the smiling young man in front of him, Wang Qi thought in his heart.
Today's cultivation has been completed, seeing that it is still early, and after informing Wang Qi, Ye Shaoling, who was in a good mood, walked out of the courtyard and wandered on the street.
There are no monks in Xicheng, most of them are ordinary mortals, and this is also Ye Shaoling's favorite place to come, compared to monks, ordinary people are easier to get along with.
The time was noon, and the person with the hot sun couldn't open his eyes, but for a cultivator, this was naturally not a problem, facing the rising sun, Ye Shaoling walked slowly on the street, looking left and right, and kept talking to the stall owners, most of them knew him, knew that he had a gentle temperament, and were willing to chat with him.
"Shaoling, I came out early today, why don't you cultivate?"
"I'm a little tired, come out and breathe. ”
"Shaoling, have you had lunch, come to Auntie, your eldest brother hit a tiger a few days ago, I stewed it, it's fragrant." ”
"No, Aunt Wang, I'll go back when I go, it's too late, grandpa will scold me. ”
"It's okay, the old man spoils you so much, how can he be willing to scold you. ”
"Ah, no, no, forget it"
"Shaoling, how about the girl that my aunt introduced to you in the past few days, people are very satisfied with you. ”
"Alas, Shaoling, why did you run away, no, Aunt will give you another one, don't run, this kid. ”
When he got home, Ye Shaoling finally breathed a sigh of relief, thinking of the girl that day, he couldn't help but shudder, he wanted to relax for a while, but he had to forget it.
Shaking his head and throwing away those messy thoughts, Ye Shaoling walked towards Ye Chen's room.
"Squeak" The door was left and right, and the familiar figure walked into the room and came to the front, Ye Chen's slightly squinted eyes slowly opened. Looking at the boy who grew up, I was very relieved, and a kind and soft smile appeared on my face.
"Grandpa, I've broken through again, it's been three months, and there hasn't been a trace of change in my spiritual power for three months, and this morning I finally compressed it again and became more refined. As soon as he entered the door, Ye Shaoling told Ye Chen about his progress, and the joy on his face was difficult to hide.
"Well, yes, yes, it's been three years, three full years of polishing, and your spiritual power should be close to the limit of what you can improve. Ye Chen stroked his gray beard and said leisurely.
"Then I can start building the foundation. A flash of anticipation flashed in Ye Shaoling's eyes.
"Still no, although your spiritual power is already very strong, it is still not enough to withstand my foundation building method, next, what you have to do is to experience, fight with people, in the battle of life and death, your spiritual power can be greatly improved again. ”
"Why, Grandpa, I think my spiritual power is already very strong in the Qi Refining Period, can't I still start building the foundation?" Ye Shaoling's face was a little frustrated.
Ye Chen closed his eyes, lay on the Taishi chair, and said slowly, "Building a foundation is the first step on the path of a monk. Ling'er, you have to remember that if you want to become strong, it is impossible not to endure hardships, and when your spiritual power reaches the requirements, and then build a foundation with my secret method, that is the first step to become a strong man.
"The vast sea of stars, countless stars, if you want to find Jun Yao, you must first become a strong man. ”
Junyao ............
Thinking of the murmur under the starry sky and the girl's soft whisper, Ye Shaoling's face became resolute again, he nodded, and said firmly, "Yes, grandpa, I will go to the Beicheng ring in two days." ”
"Well, you haven't eaten anything today, you haven't built a foundation yet, and the grains still can't be broken, I've already gone to ask Wang Qi to help you prepare. ”
"Thank you, grandpa. ”
........................
After eating, he stayed in Ye Chen's house for a while, when Ye Shaoling came out, the bright moon was already hanging high, and when he returned to his yard, he didn't feel sleepy, so he jumped into the house, lay on the roof, looked at the full moon, and was stunned.
In the dead night sky, the young man's eyes were confused and scattered, and from time to time there were two dog barks on the street, but the young man didn't seem to hear it.
