A handsome young man was walking along the path between the wooden houses.
When he was about to reach his destination, he suddenly paused and then turned to look in the direction of a wooden house.
See this.
Cheng Buzheng turned sideways, changed direction, and walked towards the wooden house.
He came to the wooden house and subconsciously glanced at the wooden sign on the door.
I saw that the wooden sign that originally had the word "out" on the door had been changed to the word "retreat".
Cheng Buzheng used his right hand to press his fingers together, bend them, and tap three times in a rhythmic and prioritized manner.
"Tuk...Tuk~Tuk!"
Then, he stood with his hands behind his hands and waited quietly.
Not long after.
The wooden door automatically opens when there is no wind.
"Bu Zheng...Long time no see!" A gentle voice came from inside the house.
As soon as he finished speaking, Nan Ye appeared in front of him.
"Please come inside~" Nan Ye extended his hand to guide him.
"Thank you, Brother Nan!"
Cheng Buzheng took a look at him and saw that Nanye's cultivation had also improved by leaps and bounds in the past two years. He was now at the peak of the second level of Qi training and was only one chance away from being promoted to the third level of Qi training.
The two of them, one after the other, entered the extremely simple wooden house.
"...Brother Nan...how have you been these past two years!"
"It's not bad!... When did you come back... Huh?" Nan Ye suddenly stopped talking, and then said with envy, "No argument...
··How did you practice? Now you have been promoted to the third level of Qi training!"
Hear the words.
He couldn't help but feel slightly unhappy. Cultivation promotion was a taboo for every monk, and no one else was allowed to pry into it.
Of course, in the world of cultivating immortals, strength is still respected. For example, in the spiritual stone veins, if a senior asked how he could improve his cultivation quickly, he could only hold his nose and admit it, and he had to explain the reason seriously.
If a monk whose cultivation level is not much different, or even inferior to him, is snooped and killed, there is nothing to say. If you want to pry into other people's secrets, you need to bear the corresponding risks.
This is the difference in strength and the different outcomes it brings.
Although Cheng Buzheng was unhappy in his heart, his expression did not change at all and he continued to chat and laugh with Nanye.
"Well...just practice like that, and you will be promoted naturally when things are done!...Senior brother, you are too anxious!"
After hearing this, Nan Ye thought for a moment and nodded.
"Right!······"
"Brother Nan... what kind of mission did you take on?~ When I returned to the present, I only saw you. Where are the others?" Cheng Buzheng asked curiously.
"This matter...it's a long story. Within a month after you left, Gao Li and Minmin were both promoted to the first level of Qi training.
We originally planned to be alchemy boys, but unfortunately there is a threshold. Not only does the cultivation level require the third level of Qi training, but the final candidate also needs to be personally determined by the alchemist.
As a result, we didn’t even meet the threshold requirements, so naturally we couldn’t sign up.
Then the few of us went our separate ways. Minmin is now tasked with taking care of the elixir garden, so she lives in the elixir garden all year round and will rarely come back here.
Xu Shi is currently working on the task of refining the raw ore of spiritual stones. The task is more rewarding with more work. He lives there now, otherwise running back and forth every day would waste too much time and also delay earning spiritual stones.
That kid Gao Li, after learning about the threshold of alchemy, went out to look for elixirs and treasure materials. So far, there is no news about him.
I am now in Lingfu Pavilion, doing a chore task, which is to produce talisman paper. Although it is a bit harder, I can earn spiritual stones, and it is enough to save money."
Then, Nanye glanced at Cheng Buzheng, and then spoke again.
"Don't argue...what are you doing now?"
Cheng Buzheng knew that the mission he had accepted would definitely not be concealed in the future, and there was no need to cover it up. The more he concealed it, the more unusual it would be.
He plans to show within the sect that he has a little alchemy talent, which is enough for him to cope with the sect's tasks.
Then, he repeated what he had just said in Lingfu Pavilion.
As the two of them continued to communicate, Cheng Buzheng also roughly knew the current situation of several teammates in the past two years. As for other information, none of it was useful.
Roughly speaking, there is not much difference from the news he heard in Fengyun Tower. The hottest topic recently is the 'Seed Trial'.
After chatting for a long time, he said goodbye to Nan Ye.
Back in the wooden house, Cheng Buzheng sat cross-legged on the bed, holding his chin with his right hand, thinking.
Judging from Nan Ye's attitude today, it seems that there is no difference from before, but he feels that the attitude of exploring everything is not a good thing for him.
"You should keep a certain distance from your teammates."
Cheng Buzheng thought of this, made up his mind, and started another day of practice.
I saw that his eyes were slightly closed, and wisps of spiritual energy visible to the naked eye were constantly gathering around him, forming a thin layer of spiritual energy. With the end of each week, he was absorbed into the body, and followed the movement of the skills, and then
A thin layer of spiritual energy is formed again.
Repeatedly, practice continues.
half year later.
In the past six months, the biggest thing that happened in the sect was the result of the last 'seed trial'.
This time, the Baiyun Sect has a total of more than one hundred disciples, including thirty handyman disciples selected from Baiyun City.
Every senior brother and sister who participated in the 'Seed Trial' was a monk in the late stage of Qi training, but only seventeen monks emerged.
Among these seventeen people, there is also a vein of spiritual stone, the senior brother in the safekeeping pavilion.
From this we can learn that the so-called "three out of ten" is nothing but the best result.
However, in the past six months, Cheng Buzheng, except for completing the last task, has not taken on any tasks. However, he has refined a lot of elixirs. Each time he refined the elixirs, they were all digested in Baiyun City.
Qi-nourishing pills are not comparable to bigu pills. After all, they are pills for improving one's cultivation. Therefore, there is a market for Qi-nourishing pills and they can be quickly consumed by the market.
Of course, if you put in the effort, you will get something. Within half a year, his spiritual stone storage quantity has been showing a positive line, pointing straight upward.
at this time.
Cheng Buzheng sat cross-legged on the bed, spiritual energy surging around him, and his magic power had been polished patiently for a long time.
At this moment, he was finally about to enter the fourth level of Qi training naturally.
The spiritual energy around him surged into his body crazily, and Cheng Bizheng continuously circulated the heavens to refine the spiritual energy in his meridians.
As Zhou Tian continued to move, the gray spiritual power that appeared in Dantian was swept away by the terrifying suction force, and then turned into wisps of mana, suspended below the gray vortex.
suddenly.
The gray vortex in the center of the dantian, the terrifying suction force, suddenly stopped.
See this.
Cheng Buzheng moved the Great Zhou Tianlai. As he moved, the mana in the Dantian was immediately mobilized. Like a giant dragon rising into the sky, it rushed out of the Dantian, and then hit the mysterious and invisible bottleneck.
"Bo!"
A soft sound resounded in the silent wooden house.
Cheng Buzheng did not stop, and then started operating according to the circuit diagram of the fourth level of Qi training, constantly consolidating the foundation.
As the sky moves around, the spiritual energy around him rushes crazily into Cheng Bizheng's meridians.
