"Boom!" A thunderous sound hit Xiaoqing's head heavily!

In Xiaoqing's memory, she was just a little green eagle from the back hill of the academy who lost her relatives. It was Li Xiuyuan who rescued her, and then the master taught her to read, write and practice.

It wasn't until she went to the Demon Realm that she attained nirvana and became the sacred bird Qingluan above the nine heavens.

Now the Phoenix Spirit told her that not only could he take her away, but he also told her that there were companions in the Nine Heavens... It was like losing a stone in a calm lake.

In a piece of fertile land, a seed soaked in water was buried.

"And you, Xiao Yu'er, there are many little phoenixes in our family. Since you have phoenix blood, you can only get a better inheritance by returning to Phoenix Valley."

Phoenix Spirit looked at the two girls and said slowly, except for Li Xiuyuan, who he couldn't take away, she wanted to take all three girls away from the Shura battlefield together.

As long as the Shura battlefield opens the passage, that's the moment she leaves here.

After thinking again and again, Nangong Ruyu looked at her and shook her head gently.

He murmured: "My mother is in the Shura Heaven Realm, and my father is still in the Five Realms... Even if I have to leave, I have to go back with the master to see them before I can leave with peace of mind."

For Nangong Ruyu, the Five Domains Dynasty was her dream. No matter what, she wanted to go back with Li Xiuyuan after recovering her memory.

Are his aunt Nangong Feiyan, Xiaohua and Wuyou already married?

Did his father return to the Prajna Temple in Fangcun Mountain to continue practicing?

And the master’s friends who stayed in the Five Domains Dynasty...

"Sister Xiaoqing, you can leave with the seniors, because the master has already ascended. I can't. My relatives are all in the lower world. I want to practice with the master!"

Looking at Phoenix Spirit and Xiao Qing, Nangong Ruyu took a deep breath and gave up on leaving early.

Instead of going to her mother and father who were hanging in the lower world day and night above the nine heavens, she would rather practice with Li Xiuyuan, and wait until the day she leaves to follow Xiao Longer and the other three on the road to heaven.

Xiao Ling'er clapped her little hands and said with a smile: "Don't worry, eldest sister, Xiao Long'er and brother are with you."

Nangong Ruyu stretched out her hand and pulled Xiao Longer to sit next to her. She stroked her black hair and said with a smile: "No matter what, Third Sister still needs to practice her sword well, otherwise the master will wake up and curse."

The Phoenix Spirit looked at the three women and said seriously: "It's a pity that you didn't see Li Xiuyuan on the Demon Tower. You must know that he is not a monk in the Cave Heaven Realm yet..."

Nangong Ruyu sighed and said: "Imagine that the master is really dangerous. When he came back, he actually landed on the devil's lair."

Phoenix Spirit smiled and said: "Without the Demon Tower, I think this war will be over in less than ten years."

In her opinion, without regenerative resources, neither the demons nor the wild beasts can be replenished, and the only way is to end this war early.

Xiao Qing asked thoughtfully: "Didn't Li Xiuyuan make a great contribution this time?"

"The entire Shura battlefield monks should be grateful to this guy, because the Demon Tower was bombed, and I don't know how many dying monks were able to leave here alive."

Nangong Ruyu put away her thoughts. This winter, she had to improve the swordsmanship she learned last year.

...

Li Xiuyuan fell into a strange state in the cave. He seemed to be awake but not awake, as if he had entered the tower of reincarnation again.

Looking at the empty wooden table in the nine-story tower, Li Xiuyuan couldn't help shouting: "Senior, was it you who summoned me here?"

"Stop yelling, I'm right behind you!"

I saw a stone platform and two stone stools placed somewhere on the ground not far from him.

An old man of indeterminate age, dressed in linen and coarse clothes, was sitting at the table. There was a pot of spiritual tea steaming out on the table. It had obviously just been brewed.

"What advice does the unknown senior have?" Li Xiuyuan stepped forward and bowed his hands in greeting, sitting in front of the old man.

The old man poured him a cup of spiritual tea, looked at him and said with a smile: "Your dragon essence and blood and phoenix essence and blood have been refined by the phoenix. Next, your body needs to slowly absorb them. There is nothing you can do.

"

"In that case, if all this essence and blood is completely absorbed, wouldn't it be possible for my divine dragon body to break through to the seventh level in one go, and my divine dragon fire... and what I lost?"

memory......"

Li Xiuyuan looked at the old man and said in a daze.

"I also want to know whether you will enter a transcendent realm after this nirvana...Whether you will become a dragon or a phoenix, this is so interesting."

The only legend in heaven and earth was right in front of the old man, and even he couldn't help but sigh again and again.

However, even the old man sitting in front of Li Xiuyuan failed to discover the pure green lotus hidden deep in his divine sea.

If you ask who knows Li Xiuyuan best at the moment, it is naturally Nangong Ruyu.

The old man picked up the tea cup in front of him, looked at him and smiled lightly: "Try my unique bitter tea in the world and see how it tastes..."

Li Xiuyuan was stunned, then reached out to pick up the teacup in front of him and took a sip.

Just one mouthful made him want to spit it out.

"This tea... this tea is so bitter, what's the point of this tea, senior?" Resisting the urge to spit it out, Li Xiuyuan silently swallowed the spiritual tea in his mouth.

"This tea is called Samsara. How does it taste? Is it bitter?"

The old man looked at him and smiled and said: "Think carefully, is it my cup of tea that is bitter, or is it the reincarnation that is bitter..."

At this time, the old man's voice seemed to have a magical power, giving Li Xiuyuan the urge to re-enter reincarnation.

He shook his head, then nodded again. After thinking about it seriously, Li Xiuyuan sighed and said, "It's all painful, unspeakable."

The old man sighed, looked at him and said, "I don't know how long it will take you to break silkworms. It's snowing and you have nothing to do. Do you want to go out for a walk?"

Li Xiuyuan was stunned and blurted out: "Where to go? I am refining three different kinds of blood essence in the cave, where else can I go?"

The old man's words greatly exceeded his expectations. Is it possible that he could refine the Phoenix essence and blood overnight and regain his memory?

The old man shook his head and continued: "Since it is very bitter, just drink this tea before talking."

Although Li Xiuyuan was very reluctant, looking at the old man's appearance, he still drank up the bitter tea in the cup and waited for the old man's next arrangement.

Putting down the teacup in his hand, the old man looked at him and said seriously: "You have a long way to go, so I want you to experience more suffering and walk more roads."

"The place you are going to on this trip...you will not retain the current memories there, and when you come back from there, it is very likely that you will not be able to bring back any memories...you are just a passerby.

.”

Li Xiuyuan was startled, and while recalling the bitter taste of reincarnation tea, he asked: "Senior, do you want me to enter reincarnation?"

The old man shook his head and said quietly: "You have entered reincarnation three times and stood on the Forget River Bridge for a hundred years. It can be said that you have experienced the six paths of reincarnation, but those are just the past."

"Is it all just the past?"

Li Xiuyuan lowered his head and pondered, thinking that all the things he had experienced were indeed just the invisible and intangible past. Could it be...

"Could it be that senior wants me to go to the future and have a look?"

Li Xiuyuan was frightened by his own idea. If the old man could let him go to the future, wouldn't he be more powerful than the masters of Tianyu City?

Is that a realm that even the gods above the Nine Heavens cannot touch?

The old man looked at him and smiled lightly: "The past has passed away, the present is being lost, and you will be lost in the future. What are the past and the future?"

"Three minds cannot be attained. That is the realm and method only found in Buddhism..."

Looking at the old man in front of him, Li Xiuyuan said thoughtfully. The old man's words awakened the memories hidden in his heart, as if he had returned to a certain moment in his memory.

Fragments of memory emerged. That year, the young man entered the monastery and wanted to practice Buddhism with the old monk.

The young man who entered the Buddhist hall drank two courses of tea with the old monk and asked for advice on how to practice. He was very happy.

The old monk looked at the young man and smiled with satisfaction.

"After having a fast meal in the morning, I will chop firewood to finish the firewood that will be burned tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. After getting up in the afternoon, I will sweep the leaves on the ground in the two courtyards outside the Sutra Pavilion, and go back to my room to chant sutras in the evening."

The young man thought that this was much simpler than practicing on the mountain, and quickly asked: "Is there anything else besides these?"

"This is the practice you are going to do now. If you encounter uninformed senior brothers in the temple who embarrass you, you must not disturb them. You must learn to reason with them. Of course, you can also ignore them."

The old monk spoke one by one calmly.

The young man picked up the tea cup in front of him, nodded and said, "This disciple will practice well and try not to cause any trouble to the senior brothers in the temple."

"That's good. Do you want me to ask Zhike Monk to prepare two sets of monk robes for you? How can you practice in robes?" The old monk frowned slightly.

Upon hearing this, the young man smiled and said, "The disciples have prepared the clothes for practicing. Master, please give me two pairs of sandals."

The old monk stared and said, "If it's not snowing, why should I wear shoes? For practicing the path of suffering, it's enough to have clothes."

The young man was startled, then smiled bitterly and said, "In this case, I will practice barefoot starting tomorrow."

The old monk nodded with satisfaction, pointed to the outside of the Buddhist hall and said: "Tomorrow, remember to put a basin of water outside and wash your feet when you come in. You will sleep here tonight, and you will move in after cleaning up the house tomorrow."

The young man clasped his hands together and bowed his head in thanks.

"The path of suffering can be practiced with bare feet..."

Looking at the piece of green tea leaf lying at the bottom of the cup, Li Xiuyuan murmured: "In this way, this tea is not very bitter... so I have also been bitter before?"

"Senior, please pour me another cup of spiritual tea, thank you." Li Xiuyuan picked up the cup and said quietly to the old man opposite.

Upon hearing this, the old man laughed and said, "Fortunately, you just have amnesia and are not stupid, otherwise I would have kicked you out."

Picking up the steaming teapot, the old man filled their teacups.

Looking at him, he said leisurely: "No matter whether the ending of this trip is happy or sad, I just hope that you won't hate me one day. After all, I let you see the future..."
To be continued...
