Even Li Ping'an, who was in a calm state of mind, his eyes lit up at this moment.
What made Li Pingan's eyes shine was not the girl's beautiful face, nor the girl's graceful figure, but the aura she exuded.
Fresh and refined, outstanding;
She was like a sharp sword unsheathed, seeming to cut through the fine dust in the air.
This girl obviously has some cultivation skills.
In terms of appearance, this girl is quite beautiful, with willow-shaped eyebrows, red cherry lips, bright eyes and white teeth, and a melon-seed face. In the night, her skin is fair and delicate, her peach blossom eyes are slightly rippling, and her exquisite ears are crystal clear.
The long blue and white dress covered her slender legs and lotus feet, and under the hem of the skirt that almost fell to the floor was a pair of embroidered shoes embroidered with orchids.
Judging from her appearance, she should be only thirteen or fourteen years old. There is still a little childishness in her eyebrows, but now she is curvy. I wonder if she will become taller in the future.
A common woman has reached adulthood at fifteen, and now she only lacks a little height.
Li Ping'an stared at the sheathed sword in her hand for a few times, and thought of the warriors he had met several times in the mortal world. He also looked at the girl's standing posture, and felt the slowly moving breath in her body, and the influence on her.
The origin is a bit more curious.
He was sizing up the girl, and the latter was naturally sizing up him.
Seeing a handsome young man with red lips and white teeth walking out of the night, the girl couldn't help but look at him a few more times, then said that she had lost her etiquette, and quickly bowed her head in salute, cupping her hands and clasping her fists.
She called out softly:
"Greetings to seniors."
It was in sharp contrast to her previous clear voice.
Li Ping'an laughed: "I am also a disciple here. I just came here not long ago. The deacon of Liuyunguan, Wei Yanzi, has been practicing in seclusion recently. He is here in the house that is enveloped by the formation... This is the house that the deacon gave me.
My credentials allow me to temporarily act as deacon."
She glanced at the jade plaque, a smile appeared on her pale pink lips, and she bowed her hand: "I've met my senior brother."
Li Ping'an returned the courtesy and asked directly: "Young lady, are you here to become a disciple and practice?"
"Um!"
Li Ping'an asked again: "I wonder how the girl got up the mountain?"
The girl explained: "Several elders from the outer sect of Wanyun Sect went to my hometown to look for the fairy boy. Although my parents were reluctant to let me travel far away, they knew that I would continue to practice at home and I was afraid that I would not be able to achieve anything in the future, so they allowed me to return to Wanyun.
Zong.”
Li Ping'an was a little confused.
Return?
Judging from what this girl said, her family should be outer disciples of the Wan Yun Sect.
The girl took the initiative to explain:
"My mother and aunt are both outer disciples of the Wan Yun Sect. They have been practicing in the Wan Yun Sect for ten or twenty years. They knew that there was no hope for the path to immortality, so they returned to the mortal world to slay demons and protect the common people.
"I have been practicing with my mother for many years. My mother followed the sect's rules and only allowed me to practice some Qi-nurturing methods and ordinary martial arts."
"I see, junior sister, please come here."
Li Ping'an didn't hesitate, asked her about her origins, and then led her to the door of Taoist Master Wei Yanzi's house.
"Here are five grain pills. There are twenty pills in one bottle. Take one bottle every seven days.
“If it’s used too quickly, it doesn’t hurt to pick it up in three to five days.
"Only when you practice to the realm of light condensation can you achieve fasting. Using elixirs instead of food can continuously improve your physique."
Then, Li Pingan took her to the next door room to get a Taoist robe and cloth boots, and led her to the backyard of Liuyunguan.
Just as Wei Yanzi guided him, Li Ping'an also explained along the way.
"There are many vacant courtyards here, junior sisters can just choose a place to live.
"In Liuyun Temple, there will be sermons given by the Immortal Chief three times a month. This is the opportunity for the Immortal Chief to accept disciples. If you have nothing to do, you should try your best to listen to the lectures.
"All vacant houses in the backyard can be moved in. These houses are equipped with basic formations. If the doors and windows are closed, the formations will operate on their own, which can block the detection of spiritual consciousness.
"You have also seen the disciples here. They are a little younger than you and me, but they have been on the mountain for a year or two. When we see them, we also call them brothers and sisters.
"To practice the exercises, the basic formulas should be taught by the deacon in the sect. I have to wrong my junior sister for a few days. The deacon said that he will leave seclusion on the 35th or March or May. These are not sure.
"Okay, let's choose a place to live."
The girl blinked and pointed at the exquisite wooden building that stood out from the crowd: "Does anyone live here?"
Li Ping'an said calmly: "There are people who hold lamps."
"Why is this wooden building so eye-catching?"
The girl clicked her tongue:
"I never thought that there are different levels in the mountains.
"The surrounding houses are all bungalows and short houses, but this family lives in an elegant attic with scattered courtyard views. Could it be that they are the powerful and powerful people in Liuyun Temple?
"Senior brother, I have only been practicing for a short period of time, but I have been following my mother as a warrior for many years, and I have met many so-called powerful people.
"Are the people living here very capable?
"If you are not a monk in the God-Gathering Realm, I will definitely come forward to ask for advice and discuss one or two things."
Li Ping'an remained calm and looked at the sword hanging on the girl's waist.
Has she always been so confident?
Although monks in the Qi-training realm are generally weak in martial arts, their talismans can't hurt anyone, and their magic weapons can't exceed ten feet, it's a bit overwhelming for a cardamom girl to dare to say that she can fight against Qi-cultivators in the God-gathering realm.
"Private fights among disciples are prohibited within the sect. This is the first-class sin."
Li Pingan urged in a gentle voice:
"Choose a place to live."
He must seize the time to go back to practice.
The girl tilted her head slightly, stared at Li Ping'an's profile carefully, and asked in a low voice: "Senior brother, you don't even ask me what my surname is and what my name is?"
Li Ping'an couldn't help but smile, as if he had returned to the days when he was a volunteer in a children's welfare home, and said warmly:
"So who is your last name and what is your name?"
She immediately smiled happily, holding the sword in both hands, opening her teeth slightly, and speaking out the 'lines' she had memorized all the way:
"My name is Mu Ningning!
"My family is in Yunhan City, southeast of Dongzhou! I have meditated since I was three years old, practiced martial arts at six years old, and killed monsters and protected ordinary people at the age of eleven. I have been a knight for three years now! I know that the path of martial arts is limited but the path of immortality is endless, so
Climb the mountain in search of immortals, and worship under Wan Yun’s sect, hoping to get guidance from all the seniors! If you can enter the immortal realm one day and gain your true nature, you should eliminate demons, defend the way, and protect all human beings!"
"Have ambition."
Li Pingan gave a thumbs up and said with a smile:
"Then quickly choose a place to live."
Mu Ningning asked in a low voice: "Where are you, senior brother? I've finished the introduction, it's your turn to introduce yourself."
"My name is Li Ping'an. I have just started practicing. I am just a minor practitioner in the middle stage of Qi training."
Li Pingan said seriously:
"Please choose a place to live now, and I will go back to practice after I settle you down.
"I have not yet become an immortal master, so I don't dare to slack off in my cultivation. Please don't take offense to me, junior sister."
"Oh well."
Mu Ningning casually pointed to a place where there was no lamp or formation.
"I will choose this courtyard."
"Please, I'll take my leave then."
Li Pingan waved his hand, then turned and left.
Mu Ningning sighed secretly.
'Are all the people in the Immortal Sect so cold and indifferent to the world?'
'Mom also said that she wants us to make more friends with senior brothers and sisters so that we can receive more care in the future... Maybe it's just that this senior brother has a cold temper?'
'Okay, Brother Leng.'
She stood there and was thinking about it, but she saw that Li Ping'an had already stepped into her courtyard and got into the wooden building.
"Eh!"
Mu Ningning blinked and gave a stiff smile to the night.
On the first day after entering the mountain, I offended the powerful senior brother with three words...
She couldn't help but raise her hands to her forehead, and was busy thinking about the remedy.
…
‘Mu Ningning’s character is pretty good, quite interesting.’
Li Pingan returned to the practice room, took off his robe, threw off his cloth boots, continued to meditate cross-legged, and quickly regained his previous state.
The mysterious way to immortality is hard to find.
Li Ping'an unconsciously moved around and gradually fell into trance, and meditation practice had replaced his usual sleep.
When the spiritual power in the air around him became a little hotter, Li Ping'an also woke up from trance. When he opened his eyes, his pupils were slightly bright, and he lowered his head to think about what he had gained from entering trance this time.
He seemed to have vaguely found a path that traveled around the sky by itself, but this path was still vague and did not appear.
"You really can't rush it."
Li Pingan stood up and stretched.
Wash and change clothes, open the window and look into the distance.
He picked up the jade bottle on the window sill, poured a grain elixir from it and put it into his mouth. The elixir turned into moist juice, and his empty belly immediately felt fuller.
'With just this kind of elixir, it's hard for a Qi Refiner to be fat.'
Li Ping'an smiled softly and looked out the window, lost in thought for a while. He was about to go to read the scriptures in the morning, but his eyes were attracted by several figures outside the window.
Several boys and girls stood on the wall of the small courtyard, looking towards a courtyard at the same time.
'looking at what?'
Li Ping'an was only at the seventh level of the Qi Training Realm, and his spiritual consciousness could not be spread too far outside, so he circulated his vitality, jumped out of the window, and gathered the vitality in his body toward his feet. With the help of thin air, he turned back like a swallow and landed steadily.
On the roof of my house.
He jumped to one of the cornices and immediately saw the beautiful figure that attracted many of his fellow disciples to observe.
It was Mu Ningning who just arrived last night.
Mu Ningning is practicing martial arts in her small courtyard.
When the shining long iron sword fell into her hand, it seemed as if it had gained a soul and aura. Sometimes it spread out like a curtain of swords, and sometimes it was like a meteor across the sky, and the screams of swords could be heard endlessly.
Her figure moves with the sword, her steps are ethereal and light, the sword is always drawn at some incredible angles, and occasionally a ray of sword energy escapes when the sword body vibrates.
When the sword rises, the snake dances, and when the blade falls, the clouds and cranes are shocked.
Li Ping'an seemed to have gained something, standing on the eaves and frowning in thought.
'When Mu Ningning is practicing swordplay and standing still, the vitality in his body is circulating around the sky?'
Li Ping'an felt a little more eager in his heart.
Half an hour later, Mu Ningning finished practicing her sword skills and meditated on the futon in the middle of the small courtyard. The boys and girls each returned to their own courtyard houses.
Li Ping'an circulated his vitality, and his figure was like a feather, falling from the eaves of his wooden building to the outside of Mu Ningning's courtyard.
This is a body-lighting technique that can be mastered by Qi-training monks.
Li Ping'an did not disturb Mu Ningning, but stood quietly and waited. The sword technique Mu Ningning used just now flashed through his mind, and he used his sword fingers to deduce it, and he had roughly figured out the path of the breath in her body.
It is in the same vein as the basic skills of Wanyun Sect.
In other words, it is the basic method of Wanyun Sect after simple processing.
Li Ping'an laughed secretly in his heart:
‘This should have been taught by her mother. Although it is prohibited by the sect rules for outside disciples to secretly teach their children the exercises, it is also human nature.
'I think her mother must have wanted her to come to practice for a long time and taught her the entry-level skills in advance.
'You should be more careful not to reveal this later, so as not to cause trouble for her.'
Zhiyo——
The courtyard door was opened, and Li Pingan saw a beautiful figure in front of his eyes, and heard a soft call in his ear:
