The thoughts of the ancient gods can no longer be guessed by future generations, but their power still shocks the ages. en8.

Many people speculate that Emperor Qing must have calculated that he would perish in his own palace, so he named it the Palace of Farewell. This kind of sad and melancholy name almost never appears in the ancient books of cultivators, let alone being used as a palace name by a heartless and heartless god. Therefore, the cultivation world has always questioned the name of the Farewell Palace, and even the authenticity of its existence, and has never stopped.

Now Yun Qing and Xie Yao have confirmed that the existence of the Farewell Palace is indeed true. But none of them had time to publicize such an event that would go down in history.

Yun Qing was very weak, curled up on Amang's body, her face was pale and her eyes were closed tightly. If he hadn't heard her words, Xie Yao would have thought she was dead.

"I'm very fine..." Yun Qing's violent coughing was mixed with a bit of smile.

Everyone will be happy for the rest of their lives.

"What a good thing!" Xie Yao saw that Yun Qing had woken up and was no longer afraid of Amang. He stepped forward and wrapped his coat around Yun Qing.

All their things were carried by Amang, and they were almost wet after walking on this waterway. Xie Yao had just washed his marrow and cut his bones, and his clothes were very dirty, but he couldn't care less at the moment.

Yun Qing sniffed the shirt lightly, frowned and said, "It stinks..."

The fluctuations of the heavenly book spread to the clothes and gradually extended to the surroundings. Yun Qing needs to know what's going on here, and she also knows that every fluctuation in the Book of Heaven is her death knell.

Activating the Book of Heaven made her cough even more, but she ignored it: "This is... Daoyuan, congratulations."

Xie Yao didn't know what she was talking about, and said confusedly: "What?"

"Congratulations, you are finally no longer a mortal." Yun Qing coughed for a while before saying, "Wash the marrow and cut the bones. I guessed that you must have a great chance to survive this time, and it is true."

There are many descriptions of washing marrow and cutting bones in the books Xie Yao has read, and they are also used for cutting hair and washing marrow. For example, Dongfang Shuo, a famous minister in the Middle Ages, once said: "I have swallowed my breath for more than nine thousand years. The children in my eyes all have a green light, and I can see hidden things. Once in three thousand years, my bones and marrow are washed, and in two thousand years, my skin is peeled off." Cutting off the hair, I have washed the marrow three times and cut down the hair three times since I was born.”

This is actually a way to naturally rid the body of dirt through hard practice without resorting to external forces. "Eating and swallowing Qi" means not eating the grains of the world, but only living on the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. If you persist for a long time, the inherent filth in the human body will gradually be discharged. But this is a long cycle.

Xie Yao thought of the white gas coming out of the Yu Ruyi and vaguely understood. I guess that thing was not a mortal thing. The white mist just entered his body and helped him cleanse his marrow and cut his bones.

But now is not the time to talk about this.

"Don't talk yet... this, this, this!!" Xie Yao was just trying to persuade her to rest peacefully when Yun Qing suddenly vomited blood. 『Elegant*Wen*Words*Emotion*First*Posted』

Aman let out a wail, and Xie Yao felt the ground shaking.

Xie Yao was very frightened. Although he did not understand medical science, he also knew that Yun Qing's injury was serious.

"Where are you injured?" Xie Yao asked.

"It's not an injury, it's a price." Yun Qing shook his head and said with a smile.

Xie Yao didn't understand.

Yun Qing continued: "You have escaped from the mortal body, so you can be regarded as cultivating immortality. But this alone is not enough. A complete inheritance, appropriate exercises, guidance when enlightening, and external objects such as the Blessed Land and Cave Heaven... It’s such a long way to go.”

Too long to see the future.

Yun Qing hoped that Xie Yao would make more plans for his own future, but she couldn't. Because there is danger of death at every moment, Yun Qing has been cautious and walking on thin ice. The future is too uncertain for her, and she can't even care about the present.

"You'd better take care of yourself first!" Xie Yao said loudly.

Yun Qing laughed again. She had met too few people, and Xie Yao was the least like a cultivator among these people, but he still had an excellent mind.

"It's okay, I'll be fine soon... I just choked on some water." Yun Qing lied without changing his expression.

"You! Do you think I didn't see you vomiting blood or something!" Xie Yao was so anxious that he was spinning around.

"It's really not a problem." Yun Qing took a deep breath, trying his best to calm down the discomfort in his body, "Amang, let me down."

"You, you, you..." Xie Yao was speechless.

"Speaking of which, how did you get in?" Yun Qing was slowly put down by Amang. After landing, her steps were a little unsteady. Amang quickly supported her.

Xie Yao didn't think too much, but she immediately avoided the topic. He frowned: "Speaking of this... I don't know either."

"..." Yun Qing was silent for a while.

Xie Yao thought she was not satisfied with his answer, so he added nervously: "I found a stone tablet after I got lost... Ah, no, I also picked up a jade Ruyi before. There was a dent on the stone tablet, and I put the jade into it..." Put it in as you wish, and then you’ll be here.”

Yun Qing still didn't speak, and the Heavenly Book was running at an extremely slow speed. She couldn't expect to get any useful information from Xie Yao, so she could only explore it by herself.

"On that stone tablet, there is a fragment of the Supreme Inspiration... Cough cough... Cough cough cough..." Yun Qing raised his head and murmured to himself.

"Ah? It looks like there is something written on the stone tablet. I couldn't see it clearly, so I just wrote down a few words. If you need it, I can recite it to you."

"No need, I know what's written on it." Yun Qing wiped the blood on the corner of his mouth with his cuffs. The red color spread on the wet cuffs, looking strange and gorgeous.

Xie Yao is almost used to her omniscience. He knows that Yun Qing won't explain, so it's useless for him to ask.

"It's a pity that you still know too little. It would be great if Song Liyou was here." Yun Qing said with some regret, "Song Liyou deliberately separated us before and wanted to attack me secretly, but I avoided him. opened."

"So it turns out he was the one who caused me to get lost!?" Xie Yao finally knew why he got lost even after following a few people closely.

"Yes, he wanted to use Shinto to kill you effortlessly, and he used you as a threat to control me." Yun Qing told him roughly what happened when he came, but omitted the part about the heavenly book.

At that time, she tried her best to use the Heavenly Book in an attempt to find a way out of the confusing Shinto. Unexpectedly, her injuries suddenly worsened and she passed out.

When she woke up feeling suffocated, she found herself in the water. She couldn't see and didn't know what was going on around her. She only knew that Aman was swimming with her for a while. When she felt that she had reached her limit, the heaviness bound by the water disappeared in vain, and then she heard Xie Yao's shrill cry.

Speaking of which... Amon walked the second half of the journey entirely by himself, and he somehow got out of trouble. This is very similar to the time after escaping from the white-clothed envoy of Shiwandashan. At that time, Yun Qing forcibly fused the Heavenly Book, killed the envoy in white, and used the Heavenly Book as a matchmaker to use Fang Cunzhan's power to cross thousands of miles and reach the border of Jingdu. At that time, she completely fainted, and it was Amang who found the city alone to ask for help.

Ordinarily, Amang's sanity shouldn't be able to do this...probably because of his survival instinct.

Yun Qing was a little confused, but didn't think about it anymore. If she still trusts anyone, that person must be Amang.

They are close relatives who never leave each other.

"It seems that you have had more twists and turns in getting here than me..." Xie Yao was a little lucky that at least they were all still alive, "What should we do now?"

"Song Liyou, we have to find Song Liyou." Yun Qing thought for a while and decided.

"But he has good intentions. You are not in good health now. What if he..." Xie Yao still had a bad impression of Song Liyou.

"It doesn't matter, Amang is here, he can't hurt me." Yun Qing remained calm.

Although Xie Yao was unwilling, he didn't know how to refuse: "How can we find him."

"He has an astrolabe in his hand, and he will come to this place sooner or later." Yun Qing pressed his temples tiredly and sat on the ground near the pool. "Song Liyou is not simple. If he says that he has lived for hundreds of years, If it’s true, then he should have entered Taoism.”

"Enter the Tao?"

"You don't have to understand this." Yun Qing changed the topic. She had become more and more comfortable with this matter. "Song Liyou has accumulated a lot over the past few hundred years, and he must have some knowledge of the inside of the Li Palace. And we I don’t know anything at all, so I can’t act rashly for the time being. I see a huge opportunity in front of me but can’t move, and I guess you don’t want to either.”

In fact, Xie Yao has not felt any fatal threat so far. He has only met a woman who looked like a flawless fairy. Then she entered here inexplicably, washed her marrow and cut her bones, and left her mortal body.

"Wait a minute... You also need to get used to your current body." Yun Qing leaned on the edge of the pool and slowly touched the edge. She wanted to reach out and touch the water, but she couldn't reach it.

Xie Yao calmed down after hearing her words. He had been gone for so long anyway, so it didn't matter if he spent a little more time. He thought, sat down cross-legged, and adjusted his breathing.

Aman saw that Yun Qing was in trouble, so he left and walked to her, but he didn't know how to help her.

Yun Qing raised his body with difficulty, turned around and said to Amang: "Pot."

Aman handed the Heaven and Earth Pot into her hand and looked at her without blinking.

Yun Qing opened the lid of the pot and gradually submerged it into the pool water. After a while, he took out the Tiandi Pot and closed the lid: "Put it away."

Aman took the heaven and earth pot and hung it around his neck honestly.

A square inch lamp can transform thousands of mountains and rivers into a square inch, and a heaven and earth pot can absorb the vastness of the heaven and earth in a square inch. When the two are combined, there are thousands of changes and all kinds of power. For example, one of Yun Qing's uses was to use the sky-breaking power of the Heaven and Earth Pot and Fang Cun Zhan to remove the seal.

Yun Qing vaguely felt that the water in the pool was still useful, so he collected some of it.

"Here we come..." Yun Qing said softly. Although he could not see anything, he turned his head towards the entrance of the palace.

Xie Yao sat quietly on the ground, opening his eyes as if awakened by Yun Qing's words, and there was a faint light flashing through his eyes: "Song Liyou?"

Yun Qing could feel the changes in him and admired in his heart that this guy was really a genius in Taoism.

"Yes." Yun Qing faced the entrance of the hall, looking uncertain and not sure what he was thinking.

A vague figure walked into the hall. The man was wearing an ordinary green shirt, dressed as a scholar. She has a delicate and gentle face, but her temperament is a little loose and romantic. This man holds an astrolabe in his hand, and there are faint stars surrounding it. He kept singing carols in his mouth, and his singing style was complex and varied, but the words he sang over and over were just the same line.

"The wind is blowing and the snow is blowing, but I am worried about leaving alone; I cannot bear to be drunk, I am leaving myself alone in vain; the prosperity is about to pass away, and the gentleman abandons his scriptures; the sun and the moon have no light, and the saint is separated from his virtue!"

The person who came was none other than Song Liyou.
