Chapter 3 A little test of skills
Qingyue Sect Branch Hall
Su Xiaofan walked through the endless mountain road, and it took half an hour before he climbed to the top of the mountain.
After going up, buildings with blue bricks and white tiles come into view. Beside the marble paths, there are rows of towering fairy trees, which exude spiritual energy all the time. If you sit under these trees and practice, , can achieve twice the result with half the effort.
A large amount of cultivation resources can be found almost everywhere in Qingyue Sect, which is why countless mortals want to join the big sect.
Slowly walking towards my yard, the senior brothers and sisters I met along the way would stop and nod to say hello.
Su Xiaofan returned to his slightly desolate yard, opened the wooden door, and sat cross-legged on a futon.
Just when he was about to start practicing, Su Xiaofan's body felt strange.
The heartbeat accelerated without warning, and the blood gathered in the dantian of the heart. The spiritual energy between heaven and earth rushed to gather at Su Xiaofan's dantian as if seeing its master.
Almost instantly, Su Xiaofan broke through the middle stage of body tempering and reached the peak, only one step away from the Qi Refining state.
It wasn't until Su Xiaofan's body could no longer absorb the spiritual energy that the abnormal state of his body stopped.
"What's going on? How to practice is as easy as drinking water." Su Xiaofan looked at his hands in surprise and felt that there was powerful power in his hands.
Su Xiaofan was lying on the bed, recalling the memories that suddenly came back when Ling Yurou kicked him out of the air.
First paragraph
In the splendid hall, there were people wearing armor that shone like gold, exuding an aura that could crush the world under their feet, and someone was holding a scepter made of dead wood. The light emitted by the scepter seemed to be able to illuminate the world.
In the center of the hall, Su Xiaofan was lying in the arms of a woman. Although she could not see her face clearly, from the sound of her sweet voice when she spoke, she must be a peerless goddess.
"Fan'er..."
Su Xiaofan only felt that his whole body was in pain as if he was being bitten by thousands of ants. The peerless goddess looked at him with pity, and crystal clear tears fell from her loving eyes. The sad aura made all the powerful people in the hall The person didn’t even dare to speak out!
Second paragraph
In a square where even the floor tiles were made of white jade, a fairy who was very similar to Ling Yurou, but looked more mature and charming in her eyes was lying on the ground, with a gauze on her face and her beautiful eyes closed tightly.
Su Xiaofan didn't know what happened next, but he vaguely heard someone talking about Phantom Grass.
Su Xiaofan had the idea of giving it a try and said it in front of Ling Yurou. The latter really cared about it.
The grade of Phantom Grass is not high, but it is very rare, and it also has a psychedelic effect on people's minds, making the monks mistakenly think that it is just a weed that can be seen everywhere.
Thinking of this, Su Xiaofan took out a simple book from his arms, with four big characters written on it, "Shen Nong's Pharmacopoeia"
Turning to the third page of the pharmacopoeia, there are detailed records of Phantom Grass, from its distribution in various states and regions to how to obtain it.
Su Xiaofan dug out this book in a secret corner of the Sutra Pavilion, and he just read it and played with it during those few days when he had nothing to do.
"I never thought this thing would come in handy."
"Bang!" Just as Su Xiaofan was looking through Shennong's Pharmacopoeia, the wooden door was kicked open, and a young man wearing a black Taoist robe walked in.
"Su Xiaofan, I heard that you have made a lot of money recently. When will you pay back the money you owe senior brother?" Wu Haoyin said with a smile.
"Senior brother, don't talk nonsense. Since when does this disciple owe you money?"
Su Xiaofan stood up from the ground, clenched his hands into fists, and looked at Wu Hao with a cold expression.
Wu Hao is a well-known villain in the Qingyue Sect. Since his father is the elder of this branch, he usually bullies his disciples but dares not speak out.
"Haha! So, junior brother is planning to default on the debt?" Wu Hao laughed and walked towards Su Xiaofan.
"Do you know who I am? If you want to hang out in the Qingyue Sect, there will be no good consequences if you go against your senior brother!"
Wu Hao drew out the sword from his waist and faced Su Xiaofan arrogantly, his intention could not be more obvious.
"Really? Then Junior Brother is here today to learn how to learn from Senior Brother, how good is Senior Brother's kung fu!" Su Xiaofan was determined not to be ordinary in this life, so naturally he would not run away from it. After saying that, he sneered and took out the wooden sword on the side and pointed it at Wu Hao , with sharp eyes.
"If you don't eat the toast, you'll have to drink wine as a penalty! You're seeking death!" Wu Hao roared angrily and struck at Su Xiaofan with his sword.
Su Xiaofan felt that Wu Hao's movements were in slow motion in front of him. He ducked sideways and put his sword on Wu Hao's neck with his backhand.
If the sword in Su Xiaofan's hand was made of iron, it would make someone's head fall to the ground with just one touch.
"Brother, do you want to compete?" Su Xiaofan smiled, took Wu Hao's sword, and kicked him out of the yard.
Wu Hao stood up from the ground in embarrassment and kept dusting himself off.
"Good boy! Just wait!" After saying that, he left without looking back.
In the room, Su Xiaofan looked at the sword in his hand with a sharp cold light.
"It's a treasure that can be sharpened like clay. It's a pity to give it to that useless person Wu Hao!"
Into the night
Su Xiaofan received the news that the senior brothers who went on the mission with him were back, and he quickly ran to the trading hall.
"You're here, take it, this is your reward!"
When the captain saw Su Xiaofan's figure, he threw a cloth bag to him, which contained a body tempering pill and ten taels of silver.
"Thank you!" Su Xiaofan took the bag and clasped his fists in thanks, and was about to leave when someone called him from behind.
"Wait!" the captain called out to him.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with the amount of reward?" Su Xiaofan asked doubtfully.
"No, senior brother is just curious, what is your relationship with the Holy Lady? Why did she let you ride on the mount?" the captain asked with envy.
Although this place is far away from the main hall of Qingyue Sect, the status of Saint Ling Yurou in the sect is higher than that of ordinary elders, and she also has an identity as the daughter of Ling Qingyue, the leader of Qingyue Sect.
If he could get in touch with this woman, let alone become a Taoist couple, even if he could become friends, the benefits would be beyond his imagination.
"The Holy Lady asked me about something at that time, so she asked me to ride with her." Su Xiaofan casually made up a reason and left after saying it. He didn't want people to gossip, so it would be best to have one less thing to worry about.
Return to residence
Su Xiaofan took out the Body Tempering Pill from the bag and looked at the crystal-clear pill in his palm with fiery eyes.
The Body Tempering Pill is the most important item for breaking through to Qi training. Without the aid of pills, no matter what kind of genius he is, he will not be able to break through the limitations of the realm.
Sitting on the futon, Su Xiaofan swallowed the Body Tempering Pill in one gulp, and his body automatically absorbed it.
Just like before, Su Xiaofan felt the blood boiling all over his body and reached the early stage of Qi training almost in the next second.
You know, ordinary disciples at the peak of Body Tempering need at least ten Body Tempering Pills to advance.
Before he could recover from his surprise, after the breakthrough, Su Xiaofan's Dantian absorbed spiritual energy at an even more crazy speed, reaching the middle stage of body tempering, the late stage of body tempering, and the peak of body tempering!
In the blink of an eye, Su Xiaofan reached the limit of the realm again, and was only one step away from establishing the foundation.
