"Alas..." Dong Jianxin shook his head and sighed: "This is not good!"
Xiao Qi said: "It doesn't matter, we'll see later."
"Brother and sister, you can really keep your composure, I admire you!" Dong Jianxin said helplessly.
Xiao Qi forced a smile.
A trace of confidence in Chu Li allowed her to hold on, not disturbing him, and continued to wait.
But this kind of waiting is like an ordeal.
Chu Li continued to grow older, as if the leaves were turning yellow little by little, and finally left the branches and fell to the ground, returning to the soil. He finally made no sound, as if he had died completely.
His body lost temperature, his heartbeat stopped, and his breath disappeared.
Seeing this, Dong Jianxin couldn't help it anymore: "Sister-in-law, junior brother, he——?!"
"Wait a moment." Xiao Qi said.
"Junior brother is already dead, we still have to wait!" Dong Jianxin shouted.
Xiao Qi said slowly: "Senior brother, don't worry, I believe nothing will happen to Chu Li. He must be studying martial arts and can still wake up!"
"He is already dead, how can he return to the world?" Dong Jianxin's face turned red and he shouted angrily.
Xiao Qi nodded slowly: "Even if you die, you can still return the sun."
"Sister-in-law, I know you have absolute confidence in your junior brother, but what time has it been? If we don't save him, he really won't be able to be saved!" Dong Jianxin said hurriedly.
Xiao Qi shook his head: "You can't disturb him at this time, let him do it by himself."
"You..." Dong Jianxin's eyes sparkled, and he suddenly leaned forward to bully Chu Li.
"Bang!" An invisible force hit his back, forcing him to retreat and avoid it.
"Brothers and sisters!" Dong Jianxin shouted: "Nonsense!"
Xiao Qi said: "Senior brother, wait a moment."
Dong Jianxin gritted his teeth and said, "We can't wait any longer. I can't watch you do whatever you want."
"That can only offend me." Xiao Qi sighed.
Dong Jianxin glared at her and hummed: "It's unreasonable. Let's see how capable you are!"
After saying that, he reached forward and pushed out with one palm.
Xiao Qi remained motionless.
"Bang!" Dong Jianxin flew out and almost fell outside Lingtian Cliff.
Dong Jianxin's eyes widened in surprise.
Xiao Qi still didn't move.
"Bang!" Dong Jianxin flew backwards again, a tyrannical force hit his palm, and he flew out of Lingtian Cliff involuntarily, only to fall down.
He landed in front of the main hall of Yinxian Mountain below and stamped his feet angrily.
While he was angry, he was also secretly shocked. He didn't expect that this younger brother and sister, who was so weak and weak, could be so powerful. He could beat him out without even seeing a move. It was really miraculous!
Since she has such martial arts skills, her vision is not bad, and she will not harm her junior brother, she must have her reasons.
Thinking of this, he stopped thinking about going up and take action again. He suppressed his anxiety and could only wait.
For the next month, Chu Li remained motionless, as if he was completely dead.
Every time Dong Jianxin went up to deliver food, he would look worriedly for a while, but Chu Li's body was not stiff, as if he had fallen asleep, so he suppressed the urge to rescue him.
Now that things have reached this stage, I'm afraid it's already too late to take action, so it's better to wait and see.
A month later, Chu Li still didn't wake up, and his appearance began to change. The originally withered hair began to grow shiny. As time went by, the white hair began to turn into gray, and then into black, so black that it was shiny.
The wrinkles on his face began to subside, becoming less and less, and eventually became smoother, and he changed from old age to middle age and then to youth. Later, his body even began to get smaller and smaller.
Xiao Qi looked at his transformation and couldn't help but smile. He finally turned into a baby.
The white robe on his body has fallen off, revealing his smooth and delicate skin, which is bright red, and his hair is sparse.
She couldn't help but want to reach out and hug him, but she forced herself to hold back.
Although he has become a baby, he still sits upright with his heart in the sky, his expression is solemn, and he has a sense of majesty.
She was a little worried, would it continue to change and become younger than a baby, and would it eventually turn into an innate spirit?
Fortunately, her worries did not come true. After turning into a baby, Chu Li began to grow up.
Another month later, Chu Li returned to his original age. His appearance changed slightly from before, and he seemed to become more pleasing to the eye. He was still not handsome, but just heroic, but a little more majestic.
He continues to grow older, to middle age, to old age, and then to death.
This was repeated four times, with the changes getting faster and faster. The first time was three months, and the last time was only ten days.
When he transformed back into a baby for the last time, his left arm grew back unknowingly and returned to its original state.
Chu Li woke up leisurely, opened his eyes slightly, and the warm and jade-like luster flashed. His whole body seemed to be carved from white jade, with a warm luster all over his body, firmly attracting Xiao Qi's gaze.
"What's wrong?" Chu Li smiled, his voice hoarse and magnetic.
Xiao Qi wiped her eyes and said angrily: "You finally woke up!"
Chu Li noticed her haggardness and weakness, and felt pity for her. He took her into his arms and sighed, "Have I been in samadhi for a long time?"
"Half a year!" Xiao Qi lay on his chest, exuding a refreshing fragrance, still the familiar smell from before, and hummed dissatisfied: "You woke up right after the retreat was over, was that intentional?"
Chu Li laughed: "Half a year?"
"How long do you think it will be?" Xiao Qi snorted.
"It seems like it only took a blink of an eye," Chu Li sighed: "I didn't expect that it would be half a year in a blink of an eye!"
Xiao Qi hummed: "But fortunately, my arms have finally grown!"
Chu Li stretched out his left hand, patted her straight back, and said with a smile: "She has indeed recovered."
"Your Ku Rong Sutra is really powerful." Xiao Qi said: "You can actually regenerate a severed limb, which is no less than Asura's magical power."
Chu Li laughed: "Asura's magical power is nothing!"
In his opinion, Asura's magical power is not worthy of carrying the shoes of Ku Rong Sutra, and they cannot be compared together at all.
Xiao Qi snorted: "What a loud tone!"
She stood up, looked at Chu Li, and praised, "You look a little different now."
Chu Li said: "Appearance is not important. Now that facing the wall is over, let's go back and you can have a good rest."
"Yeah." Xiao Qi nodded.
Even though she had completed the Taishang Sword Sutra, she still felt tired at this time. The key was worry. She was always worried about what would happen to him, whether he would be in danger, and whether he could survive half a year without eating or drinking.
Dong Jianxin came here with his heart wandering, and when he saw Chu Li hugging Xiao Qi, he lost his voice and said: "Junior brother!"
Xiao Qi hurriedly broke away from Chu Li's arm and left the embrace. A blush rose on her cheeks, feeling unbearably shy.
Chu Li smiled and said: "Senior brother, is it time to face the wall?"
"It ends today!" Dong Jianxin said with a serious face: "Junior brother, you are so awesome. You wake up as soon as you finish facing the wall. You won't wake up until it's over. Are you trying to scare us?"
Chu Li smiled and said: "Senior brother, I'm worried. Come get something to eat. I'm starving!"
"Huh, you're still hungry and you think you've become an immortal!" Dong Jianxin said angrily with a cold face.
As he spoke, he opened the wooden box. Inside were two bowls of porridge and two plates of side dishes, which were very plain.
Xiao Qi has always had no appetite and only drank a bowl of porridge. He was not angry when he saw Chu Li. It was a sin for Xiao Qi to worry so much.
Xiao Qi came over and handed him a bowl, and Chu Li drank it all in one gulp.
Xiao Qi handed him another bowl.
"That's yours, sister-in-law." Dong Jian thought to himself.
Xiao Qi shook her head and said with a smile: "I'll eat it when I get down."
Chu Li smiled and said: "It's not bad for this bowl. I just woke up and I shouldn't drink too much. It tastes good. Senior brother has such skills!"
