“Betting on dogs will lead to nothing!”

After strengthening all his possessions, Yang Ming spoke these philosophical words with tears in his eyes.

“Welcome to visit us next time!”

"Go! Go! Go!"

Yang Ming placed the spittoon beside the bed and fell asleep, but the spiritual energy in his chest was congested and he couldn't fall asleep no matter what.

"Underestimating the power of the fifth-grade elixir..."

Although Huohuo Jisheng Dan is just a healing elixir, the majestic spiritual power not only healed Yang Ming's injuries instantly, but also rushed his cultivation level from the first level of the Dantian realm to the fifth level of the Dantian realm, achieving an initial to mid-stage improvement.

It was precisely because of this that Yang Ming had enough spiritual power to strengthen it, and then he lost all the things in his family that could be strengthened.

Since he couldn't sleep anyway, Yang Ming sat up and thought about what to do next.

His current situation is not optimistic at all. Zhao Dan is now in a critical period for promotion, and he will probably not let Zhao Tianlei cause trouble again. But once this matter is over, Zhao Tianlei will definitely not let him go, regardless of whether Zhao Dan is promoted successfully or not.

After thinking about it, there is only one way out, and that is to break through the Dantian realm as soon as possible, enter the Taoist realm, and take the outer disciple selection exam on the eighth day of June.

According to the rules of the Qinghe Sect, disciples who have reached the Taoist realm can participate in the selection of outer disciples. Once selected, their names will be recorded in the Qinghe Sect's disciple list and they will become the official disciples of the Qinghe Sect. At that time, even if Zhao Dan wants to

If you move yourself, you will have many scruples.

After fighting all night with the spiritual energy rushing around in his Dantian, Yang Ming let out a long sigh of relief and felt the changes in his Dantian.

"It seems like nothing has changed!"

"It seems that last night's training was in vain..."

"Thank you for being so serious!"

Yang Ming was furious, but after calming down, Yang Ming quickly found the problem.

"It should be a matter of technique!"

The exercises that Yang Ming learned were not secretly taught by the Qinghe Sect, but the "Song of Enlightenment" that can be purchased everywhere. Booksellers often like to bundle it with the "Old Emperor's Calendar", and occasionally it can be used as a buy-one-get-one-free deal.

That one.

It's not that this exercise is useless, but what this kind of book talks about sounds big and empty. It seems to be all-encompassing when you read it. After reading it, you find that it's like you haven't learned anything. The whole book teaches you nothing.

The most common method is to use the word "enlightenment".

And the word "enlightenment" seems to Yang Ming to be unreliable!

"What a clue!" Yang Ming couldn't help complaining, "How could I have thought about developing a more reliable Kung Fu before?"

After saying this, Yang Ming was a little surprised. Due to the perfect fusion of memories, at this time, he had subconsciously regarded the Yang Ming of the previous world as himself.

"Am I still the same person I was before?"

After being nervous for a second, Yang Ming felt that this problem was not a problem at all, but just a panic after eating too much.

"Today is...May 18th. The selection of outer disciples will be on the 8th of next month. There are only twenty days in total. It is almost impossible to find a good technique to break through to the Taoist realm. The only way

The most likely thing is—drugs!”

He continued to talk to himself: "A fifth-grade healing elixir can make the cultivation level leap from the early stage to the middle stage of the Dantian realm. If there is another fifth-grade cultivation elixir, it will definitely be able to directly break through the Dantian realm!"

"But, is that one in 10,000 chance really possible to encounter again?"

Yang Ming glanced at the spittoon beside the bed, feeling completely unconfident.

"Tuk-tuk-tuk..."

There was a knock on the door.

"Is Senior Brother Yang here?"

Yang Ming opened the door and saw a boy who was no taller than his shoulders.

"Hello, senior brother, my name is Lu..." The young man looked up and saw Yang Ming's face, and was suddenly stunned.

Yang Ming didn't notice anything strange about the young man. He yawned and asked, "What did you just say?"

The young man continued: "My name is Lu Qing, and I am a new handyman disciple. Director Zhao said that Senior Brother Zhao Tianlei has other tasks during this time, and asked me to study with you. From now on, we will be a team!"

"oh?"

Yang Ming understood as soon as he thought about it. Zhao Dan was worried that Zhao Tianlei would cause trouble for him and delay his promotion, so he deliberately separated them.

"Okay, let's get started. We have a lot of work today. Let's go!"

Except for the talented spiritual wizards, the three miscellaneous offices in the southeast and west are the only way for ordinary people who want to join the Qinghe Sect. The miscellaneous offices not only do not teach spiritual practice knowledge, but also have to work every day, but there are still many

People try their best to get in just so they can participate in the annual selection of outer disciples.

He was able to recruit people one month before the selection. Yang Ming knew that Lu Qing was not from an ordinary family.

"Senior Brother Ming, what level of cultivation are you at now?"

Yang Ming was about to answer when he heard Lu Qing say again: "I just broke through to the Taoist realm last month, and this selection of outer disciples will definitely be a stepping stone..."

Yang Ming blushed and changed the subject, "Junior Brother Xiaoqing, how old are you this year?"

"Fourteen, where are you, senior brother?"

"...I'm seventeen."

Fortunately, Lu Qing did not continue to ask about Yang Ming's cultivation level, which allowed Yang Ming to save some face.

He had only entered the Dantian realm after practicing for ten years. He was the only one in the Qinghe Sect. What Yang Ming didn't know was that although everyone didn't know his name yet, his deeds had been widely circulated in the Qinghe Sect.

After studying in kindergarten for ten years, it would be difficult even if you don’t want to become famous!

"These firewoods have been dried, let's move them to the kitchen!" Facing a firewood pile as big as a basketball court, Yang Ming said calmly with a smile.

Lu Qing's face turned green, "Senior Brother Ming, are you kidding me?"

Yang Ming was actually scolding his mother in his heart, but Yang Ming's memory from before told him that these tasks can be done!

"Let's go, finish your work early and go to bed early!"

Yang Ming stepped forward, stretched out his hands, hugged a pile of dry firewood, and then activated his spiritual power.

The spiritual power spread like a vine, wrapping the firewood. Yang Ming felt that it was almost done, and shouted "get up", and the thousands of kilograms of firewood left the ground.

Hmm? It doesn’t seem to be very difficult!

By the way, now that I have reached the fifth level of the Dantian realm, it is naturally easier than when I first entered the Dantian realm.

Lu Qing may have never done this kind of work before. Although he followed Yang Ming's example and held Qianjin Ganqi, he was swaying and looked much more strenuous.

The place where the dry wood was dried was nearly five miles away from the kitchen. After three trips back and forth, Lu Qing's face turned pale and his legs were shaking. Finally, there was a "crash" and the dry wood was scattered on the floor.

"What's wrong? Did you slip and fall accidentally? Are you injured?"

"No...Senior Brother Ming, I have run out of spiritual power..." Lu Qing was a little embarrassed.

"ah?"

Seeing Yang Ming's surprised look, Lu Qing was even more embarrassed and hurriedly said: "It's okay, I can continue moving!"

Seeing that Lu Qing didn't look like he was pretending, Yang Ming shook his head, "How can spiritual power recover so quickly? I'll do the rest!"

"But, there are so many more..."

Yang Ming didn't care about the firewood. In the past, when he was with Zhao Tianlei, he did all the work alone. Now that his strength has improved, he could move two piles of firewood by himself. Just because he had a helper, he

You don’t have to work so hard to move a pile.

What he really wonders about is why Lu Qing's spiritual power in the Taoist realm is still not as good as his Dantian realm. Doesn't it mean that every time he crosses a realm, there will be a qualitative change, and the strength is completely different?

"Senior Brother Ming, can't you pass the selection of outer disciples despite your high level of cultivation? Didn't you say that the selection of outer disciples is not difficult?"

Yang Ming was stunned, "Am I...high in cultivation?"

"With such abundant spiritual power like you, you must be at the end of the Taoist realm?"

"hehe......"

"You haven't broken through to the Taoist realm, have you?!"

"..."

Seeing that Lu Qing kept pestering him, Yang Ming no longer planned to hide it.

"Actually, I'm still in the Dantian realm..."

Lu Qing was stunned for a moment and then said with a smile: "Senior Brother Ming, please stop teasing me!"

"Fifth level."

"..."

After moving the firewood, it was already afternoon. Yang Ming was thinking about how to get the fifth-grade cultivation elixir. He didn't have time to rest, so he was going to Dongfeng to buy some ninth-grade cultivation elixirs to strengthen his luck.

"Senior Brother Ming!"

Yang Ming turned around and saw Lu Qing hesitated to speak, so he asked: "What's wrong?"

"When I went out, my family gave me a piece of jade and asked me to have it appraised by an expert in the sect. Who do you think I should go to now?"

"People from our handyman department can only enter the outer door at most..." Yang Ming blurted out, but suddenly thought that he had a free "appraiser"? Then he changed his mind: "I do have one."

A friend knows this, and if you feel at ease, I can ask him to help you identify it."

"Oh, okay, then I'll trouble you, senior brother!" Lu Qing took out a purple jade pendant from his arms without hesitation and handed it to Yang Ming.

It was warm and moist, with a slight purple aura on it. Even if Yang Ming didn't know the goods, he knew that this thing was a treasure. He looked at Lu Qing, who was also looking at him with wide eyes.

"We have only known each other for a long time, but you dare to give me this thing, aren't you afraid that I will give it to you?" Seeing that Lu Qing seemed to be frightened, Yang Ming smiled and said, "Would you like to reconsider it?"

"No need, I believe you, Senior Brother Ming!" Lu Qing nodded firmly.

"Well, you're lucky. I don't like jade very much. Next time, don't give your valuables to others, otherwise you will regret it."

After the two said goodbye, Yang Ming hurried home, while Lu Qing was not in a hurry, kicking pebbles and walking back, muttering as he walked: "It really seems like it, Senior Brother Ming, don't let me down."

..."

As soon as he returned to the room, Yang Ming found two clay pots from under the bed. Inside were "his" savings over the years, a total of two thousand copper coins, ten cents each, which would only be twenty taels of silver.
