Chapter 74 Another Year of Spring Breeze Comes, No Peach Blossoms Blooming Again and Again
dark night.
There was lightning and thunder in the sky.
In a secret room of Qingyun Gate, Lu Zhan, who was sitting cross-legged and practicing, suddenly opened his eyes. His forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat. Whenever lightning pierced the sky, his body would tremble violently.
There was a rugged rockery outside the window, which was very beautiful. When the lightning cut through the dark night and reflected on the rockery, it looked like a mysterious face, smiling strangely at him.
"Don't come here!"
Lu Zhan seemed frightened out of his wits and huddled in a dark corner.
Sweat drips.
After a moment, he walked out of the shadows and slapped a corner of the rockery away with his palm.
"Damn it."
Lu Zhan walked back to the secret room with a gloomy face, and his shadow was cast into the secret room under the light of lightning.
Another bolt of lightning pierced the sky, and the shadows on the ground suddenly turned into two.
Lu Zhan's body suddenly froze.
The next moment, when he looked at the dark wall, he fell to his knees with a thud and put his forehead on the ground, making a thump thud.
"Don't kill me, don't kill me!"
After a while, Lu Zhan raised his head, and there was a dark shadow in his eyes.
In the secret room, the shadow's gaze fell on Lu Zhan, and whispers were echoing.
Lu Zhan's eyes were full of fear and horror at first, but then his face gradually showed struggle and entanglement. Finally, he calmed down, the corners of his mouth could not help but raise, and his forehead was pressed to the ground, extremely submissive.
When the thunderclouds in the sky dispersed, it was as if nothing had happened.
The next morning, the old butler of the Lu family pushed open the door to the secret room. There was a look of shock and horror on his face, and he subconsciously stepped back.
"Old...master."
The housekeeper was trembling all over and lowered his head.
After a while, Lu Zhan walked out and said gloomily: "What did you see just now?"
"No...it's nothing, sir, I'm old and my eyes are dim."
Lu Zhan squinted his eyes, his gaze fell on the rockery in the yard, and said with a sullen face: "Take these broken stones out. You are not allowed to do these miscellaneous things where I am from now on."
"yes."
"How is Lu Chen recovering from his injuries?"
"Master... the young master's injuries are almost healed, but his Yuan Fei was damaged, his vitality was leaked, and his cultivation path... In addition, his face has been ruined. I am afraid that women in the world will see it in the future..."
"snort!"
Lu Zhan's eyes were sharp, he flipped his palm, took out a strange bottle, handed it to the butler, and said sullenly: "Give it to the young master yourself."
"Master, this is..."
"Medicine, a medicine that can make my son regain his strong strength!"
After Lu Zhan finished speaking, his body flashed and disappeared silently.
Although the old butler was not a member of the Qingyun sect, he was still a man of cultivation. When he saw that Lu Zhan had become unfathomable in cultivation, his face was not at all happy, but rather horrified. He thought about it on the spot and suddenly took out a

Peach blossom forest courtyard.
Gu Yusheng was feeling the subtle changes in his body. From the initial excitement, he became calmer. Although he could feel the magical connection between the spiritual gourd and himself, after all, the spiritual gourd was not his natal bottle that was born in the divine sea.
, although he placed his three souls in the spirit gourd, allowing his body to temporarily break the shackles of heaven and earth, and seemed to be able to successfully break through to future realms, he still had subtle differences in awakening his own life bottle.
Placing the three souls in the spirit gourd carries certain risks. If the spirit gourd is taken away by someone, or the spirit gourd is damaged, his own soul will also be implicated, or at least his cultivation level will plummet.
However, Gu Yusheng thought of a remedy, that is, to continue refining the spirit gourd and turn it into his own destiny weapon so that it can be integrated with the body. However, this does not happen overnight and requires time and effort, and
Gu Yusheng devoted himself to the way of swordsmanship and did not want to put too much thought into this path.
Placing the soul in the soul gourd is a temporary measure in itself. Gu Yusheng has not given up the idea of repairing his soul bridge. When he finds a way in the future, he will definitely connect the soul bridge. At that time, he will move the three souls into himself.
Although it would take many detours, Gu Yusheng was not discouraged.
First, because he found that his three souls could be well nourished in this spiritual gourd. He could sense the magic of this spiritual gourd itself with his soul.
The second is to place one's own three souls in the spirit gourd, which can cover the aura and make it difficult for people to detect his true cultivation state. After all, Yuan Fei, opening of veins, and forging bones, these three realms belong to opening up oneself, even if one cultivates
As a monk with a higher realm, if he does not reveal the Qi of the Yuan Fei, the meridians on the body surface, or the luster of the bones, he cannot accurately judge without using some secret techniques such as spiritual consciousness or clairvoyance.
We can only make a rough guess about the opponent's cultivation level.
But once you enter the Soul Condensing Realm, it's different.
A body that breaks the shackles innately or acquired will interact with the heaven and earth, so the state of cultivation can be easily judged from the Qi mechanism.
Ever since he broke through to the first level Yuan Fei and accidentally spied on the weirdness of the sky in the Demon Suppression Tower, Gu Yusheng even had some doubts in his heart. When mortals first entered the path of cultivation, they condensed the Yuan Fei, as if they were deliberately trying to deal with it.
The protection of practitioners is used to shield the heavenly secrets. However, as the level of cultivation increases, the signs of the qi secrets can no longer be concealed.
"I don't know if such mysterious things only happen when I break through, or if it happens to others too."
Gu Yusheng looked back at the cold cave where the spiritual energy was exhausted, and at the sky where the lightning and thunder had not stopped for several hours. He always had an inexplicable sense of crisis. The sky was so high today, but he felt like he couldn't breathe.
.
However, Gu Yusheng also understood that with his current abilities, he could only protect himself in Qingyun Sect. Even if there were any secrets and crises hidden in this world, they were not something he could control now.
Improving yourself step by step, moving forward, and getting closer to the goal you are determined in your heart is what you need to do now.
He didn't have time to read the "Green Lotus Transformation Technique" he found in the Sutra Pavilion, and he didn't even understand the true meaning of swordsmanship. Gu Yusheng only felt that time was tight and there was simply not enough time.
I wish time would slow down, and then go slower.
In the next two months, Gu Yusheng locked himself in the small courtyard and rarely went out. Occasionally, he could be seen practicing swordsmanship in the small courtyard, or sitting by the well in the small courtyard and looking at the peach blossom peaks for a while.
stay.
When the snow on Qingping Mountain melts and the spring breeze comes, the peach trees that should have revealed their peach blossoms in previous years are unexpectedly delayed.
Not only the peach blossoms in Gu Yusheng's courtyard have not bloomed for a long time, but also the peach blossoms at the foot of Qingping Mountain showed no sign of blooming until April.
On this day, at the border of the Peach Blossom Forest, Liu Yuan, the Supreme Elder of Qingyun Sect, broke off a peach branch and looked at it carefully for a moment. After a while, his deep eyes showed a hint of worry, his body became pale, and the next moment he appeared at Qingyun Sect.
The forbidden place where the leader practices.www.bǐqυgetν.℃ǒm
"Uncle, why are you here?"
An ancient stone door opened, and Xuanjizi walked out. Over the past few months, Xuanjizi seemed to have become much lighter, and his face was a little tired.
Liu Yuan said with a worried look on his face: "Master Nephew Xiao, have you sensed the abnormality in Qingping Mountain? It's almost May, and the peach blossoms at the foot of the mountain have still not bloomed. The Qingyun Sect's formation has weakened a lot in the past few months and has become useless.
, under the Qingyun Staircase in the Qingyun Gate, the Qingyun wind has not blown for a long time."
Xuanjizi cupped his hands and said: "Uncle, I have already noticed this. The spiritual energy in Qingping Mountain is much thinner than in previous years. I have asked the elders to be on guard. The disciples in the sect who are still in low cultivation have added more energy to them.
Some resources for cultivation.”
Liu Yuan was slightly stunned after hearing this. He had never been very optimistic about the mystery in front of him. In his heart, Yunfeng's Lei Jiangheng was his favorite candidate.
When the previous head of the Qingyun Sect died in battle, many elite disciples and senior elders of the Qingyun Sect participated in the selection of the head of the Qingyun Sect. They entered the Demon Suppressing Monument, several checkpoints set up by the three holy places, and countless powerful
The guardian spirit inherited the ambition of slaying demons, but when those people returned, the Demon Suppressing Monument chose Xiao Rang to inherit the Qingyun Sect's orthodoxy, take charge of Qingyun, and gave the real person the title of Xuanjizi.
Xuan Jizi has been nothing special since he took charge of the Qingyun Sect. When Liu Yuan came today, Xuan Jizi's words made him, an elder, feel that he was a bit redundant for the first time. What made him even more confused was that he only realized this recently.
There was an anomaly in Qingping Mountain, and Xuanjizi seemed to have noticed it very early.
Liu Yuan is the only golden elixir cultivator in the Qingyun Sect, but his spiritual consciousness secretly probed Xuanjizi, but could not see through his cultivation level. He just felt that he was still in the Guiyi realm.
"Now that everything has been arranged, my nephew, I have nothing to say, but now there are signs of monsters running rampant everywhere in Qingping Prefecture. There are even monsters in human form wandering around the downtown area, attacking ordinary women, and many injustices have happened.
Martial nephew must discuss this with other peak masters and elders."
Xuanjizi nodded first, and then said meaningfully: "Uncle, Junior Brother Lei has been looking for you recently?"
Liu Yuan once again looked at the somewhat rigid mystery, and said calmly: "It's just asking for advice on some difficult points in the way of swordsmanship. By the way, I asked me if the swordsmanship of the boy in the peach blossom forest was taught by me... Hey, that boy
He has a weirder temper than me, but the key is, aren’t you shocked by his strength?”
Liu Yuan seemed to remember something unhappy and had a cold face.
Xuanjizi stood with his hands behind his back, looked up at Qingping Mountain, and said: "Uncle, for thousands of years, Qingyun Sect has never lacked geniuses, and there are countless people with extraordinary qualifications. Even I am not as good as Lei in terms of qualifications."
Junior Brother, Junior Sister He, let alone Gu Bai."
Liu Yuan said abruptly: "It's a pity that the disciples of Qingyun Sect have only seen Lei Jiangheng's Tianzong Sword against demons, and have never seen Gu Baijian unsheathed. No matter how talented a person is, he can't let go of the scroll all day long.
Did you run away from the demon? There is no need to mention him again, so as not to disturb your ears. If it weren’t for the original affection, even his son, I would not let him enter the peach blossom forest."
When Liu Yuan said this, he seemed to think of something and asked: "Master Nephew, tell me, is Gu Yusheng's swordsmanship passed down to him by his father? What if that boy's swordsmanship itself was inherited from Qingyun Sect?
, and it was his father who left it to him privately, which is against the sect's rules. Don't you dislike that boy? Once you find out, you will have a reason to drive him down the mountain."
Xuanjizi looked up at the sky and couldn't see his face clearly. He was silent for a moment before replying: "No."
"You are really unpredictable. I can sense that there is a hidden meaning in that kid's sword, and there is something in his heart. If there is no one to teach him, he is determined not to achieve such an achievement. If there is someone to teach him, and there is someone to teach him,
Who can hide this from me?"
Liu Yuan seemed a little confused.
Xuanjizi glanced sideways at Liu Yuan, then looked up at the sky, and said inexplicably: "The peach blossoms will always bloom, and there is no need to be impatient, uncle."
