After surviving the heavy summer heat, Master finally let Li Xiuyuan refine the inner elixir in the cool autumn.

To the master's and disciple's surprise, Li Xiuyuan's cultivation level reached the fifth level of the Golden Core.

From the ninth level of foundation building when leaving Tian Academy in the early spring to the fifth level of golden elixir now, Li Xiuyuan and the Master created the miracle of cultivation in the academy for thousands of years.

This is the realm where the master has repeatedly warned Li Xiuyuan to suppress himself and not to break through too quickly, otherwise he will be at least the sixth level by now.

Finally, in the early morning when the white dew came, the master and the apprentice left Wangyue Stream in Tianyun Mountain.

The master took one person and one eagle and returned to the bamboo house in the academy.

Li Xiuyuan didn't take a break and went directly to the kitchen backyard to chop firewood. Because his master told him that since he didn't want to become a formal party member of the academy, he had to act like a handyman.

Li Xiuyuan thought to himself that he was just chopping firewood. He had money to collect and food to eat, so what was the trouble? He just thought that he spent two hours a day in the kitchen backyard to practice.

He planned to practice to the state of distraction and then go to the outside world, and then wait for the Shura battlefield to open. Even if it was not for his master, but for his own future, he would give it a try.

Even if you only get a chance to pick one.

As soon as the small stove on the master's table was lit when he returned to the bamboo house, the dean of the academy stepped into his small courtyard.

Looking at the husband sitting under the eaves making tea, the dean frowned slightly, thought for a moment, then stepped forward and asked: "Master Zhang Yushe is back? Are there any adventures in this mountain?"

The master looked at him and smiled and said: "If you want to drink tea, you have to wait a moment. If you are talking nonsense, please leave."

The dean shook his head, sat down and asked, "Where are your new students?"

The master was stunned, looked at him and said with a smile: "You arranged for him to work as a handyman, and he will naturally perform his duties. Otherwise, wouldn't you have to cause trouble again?"

The dean was speechless by the Master's words. He was stunned for a while before continuing to ask: "What state is he in now? Have you healed his leg injury?"

"Is he in his realm?" The Master picked up the boiling water and poured it on the teapot. He replied with a smile: "He just broke through to the fifth level of the golden elixir two days ago. As for his legs, you can't cure them, let alone me.

This old man?"

Li Xiuyuan chose to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger. As a teacher, he naturally turned a blind eye. Anyway, Li Xiuyuan's pinhole leg injury was not cured by him.

Even if one day a group of old men from the academy came to question him, he could choose to remain silent.

"It's too hot today. That's the only bad thing about the academy. Fortunately, you two, master and disciple, have endured the hottest time in the mountains."

The dean wisely changed the topic and reasoned with the master, how could he be his opponent?

The master poured him a cup of tea and said softly: "I know what you are doing, just let them all give up! Don't say that Li Xiuyuan is only at the golden elixir realm now. I don't know if he can break through it in ten years."

God’s later stage.”

The dean held a cup of hot tea, and after listening to the master's words, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice bucket, and said in a low voice: "Master, are you just going to watch the elders of the academy who don't get a chance and die of old age one by one? Is that so interesting?"

When the master heard this, he chuckled and said, "Don't I just practice hard but can't find the opportunity to ascend?"

The dean sighed and responded calmly: "Although we are in this world, we still can't take this step to reach the sky. I don't know how many heroes have died because of this step. Is that the case for you and me?"

Master slowly raised his head and looked at him, and said something unrelated: "Even if Li Xiuyuan goes to the Shura battlefield one day, he will only fight on his own behalf."

"Since the academy opened its doors to recruit students, it has taught countless elite disciples over the past thousands of years. There are many even above Poxu. Why do you have to deal with a handyman disciple who has just entered Jindan?"

The master looked at the dean and spoke what was in his heart.

"Over the past thousands of years..." the dean repeated softly, with an indescribable smile on his face, and said softly: "We have all taught some kind of existence. In Changsheng

Who is not a selfish person in front of the great road?"

Upon hearing this, the master said proudly: "You want to live forever? Don't there still be students in the academy? Select some students in the late Nascent Soul and early distraction stages and train them carefully for ten years. They may not be able to fight in this Shura battlefield."

"Having said that, everyone knows that once you enter, you will inevitably escape death. I'm afraid not many party members are willing to participate."

The dean's husband shook his head helplessly.

The master smiled and then said: "Then select people from the elders' families to train them. I won't suffocate you to death, right? If my disciple didn't show up, wouldn't you send people to the Shura battlefield?"

"This is everyone's opinion!" The dean reluctantly moved out the elders.

Upon hearing this, the master brought the conversation back to the previous topic and said coldly: "Then let them do it on their own! It's not like the elders who don't have the Void Breaking Realm are pretending to be grandsons here? Do you think I'm easy to bully? Let them

Come and try me?!"

The dean was stunned, and after a moment of silence he responded: "I just came to find the answer, Master."

"I don't have the answer you want here. If you dislike me as an old man staying here and being a hindrance, our master and disciple will leave the academy immediately and never come back."

In Master's opinion, there is no place for cultivation, so if it didn't work, he took Li Xiuyuan back to the small Taoist temple on Luoxia Mountain. The reason why he stayed in the academy was because Master had feelings for the academy and wanted to stay longer.

Secondly, the environment here is quiet, which is suitable for the practice that Li Xiuyuan saw, and he can not be disturbed by the outside world.

When the dean heard this, he was immediately dumbfounded.

He did not expect that the master would be so decisive and even said that he wanted to leave the academy. You must know that although the master is unknown in the academy, he is a mythical figure in the Shura Realm.

At this point, the dean had to withdraw the topic, sit quietly under the eaves, drink three courses of tea with the Master, then stood up to say goodbye, turned around and left the Master's bamboo house.

The master looked at the dean's leaving figure and said softly: "The trees want to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop."

Naturally, he would not be afraid of the few remaining old monsters in the academy, who would just slap their butts and leave if they were provoked.

...

Li Xiuyuan, who was in the backyard of the academy kitchen, had been chopping firewood for two hours. He looked at the pile of chopped firewood in the wooden shed and wondered whether he should come back tomorrow.

At this moment, he felt someone behind him and turned around.

I saw the elder in charge of the kitchen holding his sleeve behind him, looking at him quietly and saying, "I haven't seen you for a few months, and I didn't expect that you have already reached the middle stage of the golden elixir. It is really gratifying to congratulate you."

"Why are you looking for me, elder?" Li Xiuyuan remembered that this was the first time the elder had greeted him since he came to the academy.

"There is a legend in the academy that you are planning to go to the Shura battlefield in ten years. If it is true, since it is related to whether you can ascend, of course I will ask you."

The chubby elder looked at him and said seriously.

"I am a young Taoist priest from Luoxia Mountain." Li Xiuyuan suppressed his smile and replied quietly: "And I don't know if I will be able to practice to the realm of breaking the void in ten years."

"Then how do you explain that you are chopping firewood and doing chores in the academy?" the fat elder asked, looking into his eyes.

Li Xiuyuan's eyes were calm and he replied slowly: "I work as a coolie in the kitchen of the academy. I am just an ordinary handyman. I have not spent a single point of the academy's training resources. If the elders don't like me, then I will leave the academy tomorrow.

.”

Having said this, Li Xiuyuan dropped the woodcutter in his hand, turned around and walked out of the kitchen.

Not choosing is his bottom line as a person. For the sake of his own principles, he will never break through his bottom line, even if this is an academy.

Fat Elder Shan frowned and said, "Even if you leave the academy, you still owe the dean your life!"

Li Xiuyuan turned around, looked at him and smiled and said: "Master told me that my one piano incident made dozens of people break the law after hearing the piano, and I have repaid the dean's favor! Please don't take advantage of the dean in the future."

Say something, thank you!"

This was his personal opinion. He believed that if he went back and told the Master now, the Master would also support his reasoning.

"This little handyman like you...is really difficult to deal with."

Looking at the back of Li Xiuyuan who was gradually passing away, the fat old man said quietly: "This is soft and hard, and the other party won't buy it. Even if the dean comes forward, there is no hope."

The only thing that made him proud was that when he saw Li Xiuyuan leaving, one of his left legs was still trailing behind him. This clearly meant that even the master couldn't do anything to him.

"Let's talk about you, you are not a cripple!"

...

Li Xiuyuan did not return to his own residence, but returned to Master's bamboo house.

As soon as he arrived outside the bamboo house, he heard Master teaching Qingying: "This is the academy, not the back mountain... From now on, if you want to go wild, you have to fly farther to the back mountain, don't stay in the academy, you know?"

"

Green Eagle lay down in the yard and called out "Cuckoo!" twice to show that he understood.

The master sighed softly, turned around and looked at Li Xiuyuan who walked in, and said leisurely: "It's nothing big, but there are always some uneasy little things...Did someone run to find you?"

"The elder in the kitchen is looking for me." Li Xiuyuan walked over and touched Qingying's head, and said with a smile: "Did you run out and cause trouble? This is the academy, not the back mountain. If you want to play in the future, you can fly to the mountains."

The master looked at the eagle for a while and said calmly: "This family went to the square of the academy to scare the new students, and almost had the elders of the academy capture them, cook them and eat them... Are they looking for you because of the Shura battlefield?

matter?"

"Well, I have rejected him and told him that if he forces me to make a choice again, I will leave the academy."

Li Xiuyuan looked at the master and smiled, then took out a fruit and handed it to Qingying: "Eat it, I got it from the kitchen. If you don't eat it, it will be free."

Qingying stretched out his hand and nudged him gently with his head, called out "gugu" twice, and then swallowed the fruit in Li Xiuyuan's hand, just like a naughty child.

"Ignore them, I told the dean today." Master slowly frowned, looked at Qing Ying's proud look, and said, "If you make us anxious, then go back to your Taoist temple on Luoxia Mountain together.

Cultivation, I also want to see it."

There was another sentence that Master didn't say. He also wanted to see the place where the old Taoist priest ascended. Maybe it was a blessed land and it would be useful to him.

After all, who can explain clearly something that has never been experienced before?

Li Xiuyuan walked to the eaves and sat down, poured a cup of tea himself, looked at the green eagle in the yard and asked: "Teacher, shouldn't we bring Ying'er back to the academy?"

The Master thought for a while, shook his head and said: "If it wants to embark on the road to immortality, it will inevitably have to go to the Demon Realm. Don't you want to break through to the point of distraction and go to the Demon Realm to find those two little guys? When the time comes, you will go to the Demon Realm.

Take this eagle with you."

When the green eagle in the yard heard this, it couldn't help but roared "Chirp!" twice.

The Master looked at it and smiled and said: "Don't worry, this little guy is only in the Golden Core Realm. If he takes you out, he is afraid that both of you will become fat sheep and be caught and sold."

Li Xiuyuan thought for a while and asked softly: "Don't you miss the academy?"
