Chapter 20: Undercurrents
"Squeak"
The door of the side hall, which had been closed for more than ten days, slowly opened, and a slightly immature and emaciated figure walked out slowly, and the warm sunlight shone on this figure, and a faint brilliance emanated.
Outside the hall, a much thinner and beautiful figure trembled violently, and his bright eyes opened nervously, looking at the gate of the side hall, his eyes looked at the figure in front of him a little distractedly, and he felt that the figure in front of him seemed to have changed a lot, and it seemed that nothing had changed.
The air was a little stagnant, Xiao Ling walked quickly to the beautiful figure, and looked at the girl in front of him who had lost a lot of weight with some distress, with warm friendship and guilt in his heart, although his cultivation in the past few days was painful, but the look in the eyes of the girl in front of him made Xiao Ling's ignorant heart a little overwhelmed.
"Senior Sister Mei, I've made you worry these days!Xie Lu, thank you for doing this!" Xiao Ling's eyes were a little flushed, and he stepped forward and grabbed the girl's little hand.
"Xiao Ling, you have nothing to do, right? I'm worried to death these days, I really don't know what you're doing inside! I wanted to go in a few times, but Uncle Ma just wouldn't let you, he said that you were very good inside, and something would naturally come out!" The girl grabbed Xiao Ling's hand tightly and said with a little choked up.
"It's okay, it's just that I'm cultivating some special secret methods in it, and it's just a long time! I will tell you first next time I cultivate. However, you also know the Dao, and the path of cultivation is already arduous, and if you don't cultivate penance, you can go far! Xiao Ling looked at the girl with some regret.
"He also said, I really don't know what you are cultivating in the Forging Palace, a few days ago, the essence and essence qi of the entire Forging Body Hall were sucked by you, and these disciples of the Forging Body Hall all knew that you made the Dao, if it wasn't for Uncle Ma to stop it, these people would have broken the door of the side hall a long time ago. Now you are a big celebrity, everyone says that you are a monster, and a bunch of people are ready to settle accounts with you, see what you do!" the girl glanced at Xiao Ling.
"Eh! Such a big move, but I really don't know what to do, I'm in trouble now! I just want to cultivate hard, I've never thought of becoming a celebrity, I have to think of a way, these guys secretly don't know what Lu Dao will do!" Xiao Ling was taken aback, and couldn't help frowning.
"Yes, everyone is talking about it, saying that you have obtained some peerless exercises that can speed up your cultivation, and some people say that you have hidden your cultivation and are plotting against you! But Uncle Ma has been pressing, otherwise these people would have jumped up! You still have to think of a way, it can't go on like this, these people's families or sects are very powerful. Mei Jue was also full of sadness.
"Did Yu Xueling and Lu Jian say anything?" After a while, Xiao Ling raised his head.
"No, the two of them behaved very calmly, as if nothing had happened, but they came to see it once at the beginning, and they were persuaded by Uncle Ma to go back, so there was no movement. It seems that he has appeased a lot of people in private and made these people a lot quieter, otherwise Uncle Ma alone would not be able to suppress these guys now. Mei Jue said with some puzzlement.
Xiao Ling bowed his head and was silent, his brows furrowed, the development of things was beyond his expectations. The art of refining the body only said that it could absorb the essence of heaven and earth to refine the flesh, and I didn't expect it to have such a big impact. The children of the family who have a little foundation in this matter will think that Xiao Ling has some kind of secret art, and there will inevitably be people with bad intentions, and these families or sects will definitely find a way to get it. The development of things is out of Xiao Ling's control, and he must think of a safe way, otherwise, his life will not be guaranteed!
Mei Jue was also a little nervous looking at Xiao Ling who bowed her head and was silent, but she didn't say anything, now Mei Jue's cultivation speed has improved by leaps and bounds after Xiao Ling provided the improvement method of replenishing the essence liquid, and she is about to break through the double layer, and her confidence in Xiao Ling in her heart has skyrocketed, and she feels that there is nothing that Xiao Ling can't solve.
At this time, the other disciples of the Body Forging Hall also saw Xiao Ling come out, and there was a little more inexplicable meaning in their eyes. Yu Xueling was unusually calm, just glanced at Xiao Ling, closed her eyes and continued to cultivate. On the contrary, Lu Jian was a little hesitant in his eyes, as if he was about to come over, but finally stopped.
After a while, Xiao Ling raised his head, with a determined look in his eyes, and Mei Jue was also infected, with a sweet smile on his face. She knew that Xiao Ling had found a solution, but she didn't ask.
Xiao Ling saw that Mei Jue didn't ask, and couldn't help nodding, tolerant girls always know that there are some things that can't be asked.
"Senior sister, I will take care of this matter, don't worry, it will be fine!" Xiao Ling said to Mei Jue.
"Well, I know that you can solve this matter, but be careful, those families and sects are not simple. Mei Jue looked worried, but didn't say much.
Xiao Ling nodded, and the power of his mind entered the Qiankun Bracelet, looking for something inside. After a while, Xiao Ling raised his head, looked at Uncle Ma who came to him with a smile on his face, and smiled calmly.
"Uncle Ma!" Xiao Ling saluted at Uncle Ma.
"You kid, now I really can't see through you! The small forging body double actually made such a big movement, if I hadn't stopped it, these disciples would not have to skin you alive, and for several days, everyone would not be able to cultivate!" Although Uncle Ma was laughing, Xiao Ling could still see a trace of discoloration in his eyes.
"Thank you, Uncle Ma, I didn't expect that Mr. Zhu, who originally asked me to study, would have such a big impact on the Fa in a bamboo slip given to me. Xiao Ling said apologetically.
"Oh, what kind of exercises?" asked Uncle Ma, looking a little nervous.
"Senior Sister Ma, let's go inside and talk about it!Senior Sister Mei, I'll go inside and talk to Uncle Ma, and I'll talk to you later!" Xiao Ling finished speaking, turned around and walked towards the side hall.
Uncle Ma glanced at Xiao Ling, hesitated for a moment, and followed.
After a full hour, Uncle Ma and Xiao Ling came out, Uncle Ma smiled happily, but there was a hint of pity in the smile, and Xiao Ling's face was calm, as usual.
Uncle Ma nodded slightly at Xiao Ling, said a few words in a low voice, and walked away quickly. Xiao Ling walked in front of Mei Jue and said a few words in a low voice, Mei Jue smiled sweetly, nodded, cleaned up the things in front of him a little, and followed Xiao Ling out of the Forging Hall.
The disciples in the Body Forging Hall all looked at each other, not knowing what was going on in the Dao. I wanted to follow the past, but I thought of the rules set by Uncle Ma, you are not allowed to leave the temple without a reason, and if you violate it, you will be expelled from the palace.
However, some disciples took out the transmission talismans one by one, passing on something, and for a while, the entire forging hall was in chaos, but Uncle Ma disappeared and didn't know where he went.
Qingyun Peak, in a cave, a middle-aged man with a face like white jade looked at the young man in front of him, and said something in a low voice, and he could vaguely hear words like alchemy. The young man frowned, replied in a low voice, and left, but the middle-aged man fell into deep thought.
In the cave mansion of Qingling Ancestor of Qingyun Peak, Qingling Ancestor looked at the communication jade slip in front of him and said something in a low voice.
Qingzhou, Qingyang City, the Jade Family Discussion Hall, several men and women with strong breaths were discussing what was happening in the Qingyunmen Forging Hall, and the middle-aged man in the center had a very serious expression.
"Patriarch, do you need to return to the ancestor in this matter, let the ancestor have an idea, after all, this matter is too important, if my Yu family can get this exercise, then the strength of the Yu family will definitely be on a higher level, even the Qingyun Sect will have to give up three points. An old man said, this old man is Yu Chengling's grandfather.
"This matter has to find another way, the Yu family should not show up now, after all, the incident of Chengling last time has made many families and sects disagree with the Yu family, this time I can only secretly take action, summon Xue Ling, and let her get the exercises at all costs. The middle-aged man said, his eyes as sharp as an eagle.
In the main hall of the Lu family in Yunzhou Mansion, the patriarch Lu Yuntao said something with some excitement to the old and young people with a strong aura in front of him, and the specific content was also about the Qingyunmen Forging Palace.
Lanzhou, Minzhou and some other places, as long as there is a little bit of power in the family or sect around the Qingyunmen Forging Hall for a while, there are many discussions, one after another transmission charms continue to merge into the Qingyun Gate, nearly a hundred transmission charms are transmitted to the Forging Body Palace, and the other hundreds of thousands of Dao are submerged into the various mountain peaks and caves or palace towers in the Qingyun Gate, and for a time the Qingyun Gate is surging.
In the far north of the mainland, a huge temple floats in the air, the temple has a radius of more than 100,000 miles, and in the depths of the temple, in a palace that is only more than ten zhang in size, several figures are standing or sitting, these figures look ordinary and abnormal, old or young, just like rural laymen.
In the center is a thirty-year-old handsome man, the man's face is slightly feminine, and at the bottom, a beautiful woman in white, an eight- or nine-year-old boy, a middle-aged man with fiery red hair, and a girl with a beautiful face.
"Bai Qingya, has it been clarified that the matter of the falling sun in the territory of Qingyunmen has been investigated? Who got the treasure? Why is there no news until now? Our plan is very tight, and the danger must be minimized, and the treasure that appeared in the falling sun is absolutely extraordinary, and my Tiangang Palace must get it. If you can't find out, punishment will be inevitable. The handsome man said to the boy.
"Hall Master, there is no way to investigate the matter of the Falling Sunland, all the creatures in the Falling Sunfall are all extinct, and now the Falling Sunfall is still inaccessible, although I have entered it once, but only dozens of miles, it is difficult to advance half a step, if I don't retreat decisively, I may not be dead. All the mana inside can't be used, and after the Yuan Ying enters, he falls into a deep sleep, and there is not only a high temperature inside, but there seems to be an unknown prohibition, as long as there is mana in the body, it will be suppressed. I saw nearly a hundred people from other sects enter, and I saw them turn into ashes, and the mana of these people was only stronger than mine. I wandered in the land of the falling sun for more than three months, and I really had no choice, so I returned to the sect and asked the hall master to make it clear. The boy replied with some fear.
"Oh, there is still such a thing? Let's secretly check this in advance, I believe there will be any clues in Qingyunmen." How are you in contact with that person this time?Are some of the secret hands fully prepared?" The handsome man's brows furrowed slightly.
"Back to the hall master, that person has already promised, as long as they let them dominate one side afterwards, he will secretly help us. In addition, those secret hands have been successfully completed, and once the plan is activated, it will be able to turn darkness into light, which will definitely surprise Qingyunmen. However, the teleportation circle is still a little troublesome, for fear of attracting the attention of other sects, we can only do it secretly, and the lack of materials is relatively large, it seems that it will take at least fifty years to be fully prepared. ”
"Fifty years? well, it's pretty much it. Hurry up on this matter. ”
"Hall Master, there is one more thing, recently, a little guy in the Qingyun Gate who forged a double body actually caused the convergence of the essence of heaven and earth, this can only be done when he reaches the Dan realm, according to the information of the transmission, this young man may have some high-level exercises. The boy thought for a moment and said.
"Body Forging Double?" The handsome man frowned slightly, and paused for a moment, "As far as I know, there are some body refining techniques in the upper realm that require the Qi of Heaven and Earth Essence Yuan to refine the physical body when cultivating, but this kind of exercise is difficult to cultivate, and you can generally start cultivating after the qi gathering period." However, once the cultivation is successful, the absorption and refining speed of the Heaven and Earth Essence Yuan Qi will be accelerated a lot, and this little guy may be taking the risk of cultivating the art of refining the body. There is no need to worry about this matter, this kind of body refining technique is difficult to cultivate, and it can only be cultivated at most one or two layers in the lower realm, and it is not of much use to the fighting method. It's just to make the body tougher, and the body refining and cultivation exercises are not rare exercises in the upper realm, and most monks will cultivate a few levels. Therefore, it is not very useful to obtain this exercise in the lower realm, and it is easy to obtain the exercise in the upper realm, so there is no need to pay too much attention to this matter. Everything is based on planning. ”
"Yes, hall master!" the boy was secretly frightened, but he didn't expect the hall master to know the reason for the Dao, and he couldn't help but be afraid, and nodded hurriedly.
"Feng Ling, Hong Yuan and Bai Xi, you have to prepare the magic weapons, formation instruments, pills, etc. within fifty years, and the materials are not enough for Wanling Hall to purchase at all costs, don't delay the start of the plan. The handsome man said to the three beautiful women.
"Yes, hall master!" replied the three beautiful women with their heads bowed.
"The Divine Domain of Qingyunmen is also about to open, what is the situation to know at any time, let people put the mark into the Divine Domain. Hmph, Qingyun Sect is full of mediocre people, and no one knows the true purpose of the Dao Divine Domain, and it has occupied millions of years in vain!" The Qingxiu man said with some disdain, "You go and prepare first, the plan is successful, and the benefits will be innumerable, which is enough to raise your realm by a few steps, with these, maybe you will have a chance to soar to the upper realm." ”
"Yes, hall master, I will be ready on time. The four of them bowed their heads and replied.
The handsome man waved his hand and asked the four of them to retreat. His face suddenly became much colder, and his eyes flickered.
Qingyunmen, a valley dozens of miles outside the Forging Body Palace, Xiao Ling and Mei Jue sat next to a small stream quilt, watching the small fish swim in the stream, and the two of them were a little intoxicated for a while. However, if you look closely, you can find that there is a trace of essence flickering in the depths of Xiao Ling's eyes, as if he is thinking about something.
