Shen Lian stood up, but Gu Caiwei had already turned away. When Shen Lian came ashore, he had feather clothes on his body out of thin air. This was the Taoist skill of Qiankun in his sleeves, which was not unusual.
After being dressed neatly, there are traces of black smoke all over the body, which disappears with the wind. It is the scene of the evaporation of the Youhe River, also called soul smoke.
According to his actual physical age, he is already in his early thirties, but his appearance is not much different from when he first entered Qingxuan. His green eyebrows and beautiful face are like those of a young man who has not yet reached his crown in the mortal world.
In the mountains, I don’t know the years, I don’t know the spring and autumn, Shen Lian has almost never changed.
Gu Caiwei has not changed, but Shen Lian smells the smell of decay. Even if he possesses the invincible Taoist secrets in the world, if he cannot break through the realm, he will still become withered bones in the grave when his life span is over.
It's just that Shen Lian himself didn't even get started with Taixu Divine Strategy, let alone be of any help to Gu Caiwei.
It's so difficult to get started, so you can imagine how difficult it is to hold the elixir.
But you can’t blame anyone for the path you choose.
What's more, he has only endured fifteen years of boredom, and there has been no other progress during this period.
Chen Jianmei has been lingering at the door of Huandan for forty years. Even Shen Lian today can hardly understand that kind of suffering. You must know that Shen Lian still has the Shangqing Lingbao Natural Heart-locking and Concentrating True Solution to practice. He even has There is a feeling that if this method is practiced to an extremely high level, even if the physical body dies, he may continue to exist in the world in other life forms, but he may lose something because of this.
Whenever he meditates deeply, he will feel that he has forgotten the joys and sorrows, leaving only the silent loneliness and loneliness.
When he pulls away, he will be full of rejection of that state again, but the demonic obstacles caused by the eight qi entering the body also need to be dealt with by the method of refining the gods.
It seems that he is trapped in a contradictory situation, which can only be solved by breaking through the Taixu Divine Strategy and getting started.
Moreover, it would be even more nonsense if he were to modify other techniques now.
On the road, there are more than just these difficulties and obstacles. If you are afraid to retreat today, you will be stopped due to other difficulties tomorrow. When you get old, you will have gained nothing and can only wait for death.
Shen Lian was clearly aware of the complexity of his own contradictions and did not give up easily. From the moment he determined to seek the Tao, he knew that cultivation would never be that easy.
Today's situation is even better than his worst plan.
Gu Caiwei has already faced Shen Lian head-on. Zhang Ruoxu initially asked her to take over as his master, but in fact she only agreed because of her respect for Zhang Ruoxu.
But Shen Lian does have something special about him, not just because of his talent, but also because Shen Lian is somewhat different from most practitioners in the world.
Most practitioners have the intention of competing with God for their fate, seizing the day and night, and rarely waste time on others.
Moreover, most of these monks who have not yet entered Huandan are thinking about how to break through their current bottlenecks, and will not waste time giving advice to others unless necessary.
Even when giving advice, most of them have a purpose, and they will also look at the other person's qualifications and potential.
Like Shen Lian, as long as he is not in retreat or there is something particularly important, when others ask questions about practice, he will patiently put forward his own opinions, but try not to be subjective and just explain his thoughts.
Regardless of whether those in the same sect have high or low cultivation levels, most of them are not close or far away from each other. Only a few people who are familiar with each other will get closer to each other, and that's it.
Shen Lian has never been seen to be pretentious or perfunctory because of someone's low cultivation level.
In this regard, Gu Caiwei saw the shadow of Zhang Ruoxu in Shen Lian.
Zhang Ruoxu was not the strongest master in Qingxuan's history, nor was he the most talented, but he was definitely the best.
In fact, if Zhang Ruoxu hadn't been seriously injured and could not be healed, he would have broken out of his delusion, because there was nothing wrong with his state of mind.
Shen Lian said softly: "What is Senior Sister thinking about?"
Gu Caiwei was speechless, then said: "It's nothing, I'm here to send you a message on behalf of the headmaster."
Shen Lian nodded and said, "Headmaster hasn't cared about me for a long time. What happened this time?"
"When I was able to get started with Taixu Divine Strategy, it had something to do with the fact that my ancestors and masters laid the foundation for me. Although you are more talented than me, you don't have this kind of treatment. It's a pity that I don't have enough experience in Taixu Divine Strategy. , some things can’t be explained thoroughly. The master’s cultivation is profound. Although he has never practiced Taixu Divine Strategy, all methods are interoperable. I told him about Taixu Divine Strategy and also told him my understanding since my practice. Although he I can't give you direct advice on how to make a breakthrough, but let me tell you, 'Go down the mountain, and don't return to the mountain gate if you haven't returned the elixir.'"
The headmaster asked Shen Lian not to return to the mountain unless he returned the elixir, which really made Gu Caiwei a little hard to understand.
At first, Chen Jianmei had never broken through the realm and wanted to go down the mountain to practice, but Zhang Ruoxu stopped him.
After forty years of guarding Qingxuan, the clouds finally cleared and the moon became bright.
However, Shen Lian was also stuck in a bottleneck and wanted to calm down and get rid of his impatience, but the headmaster did the opposite and made him return to the world of mortals.
The situation is similar, but the approach is different.
Shen Lian pondered: "The master has not seen me, how can he know my current situation, and how can he know whether what he said is wrong?"
Gu Caiwei said: "The headmaster had expected that you would ask this. He asked me to tell you that your difficulties lie in your own nature and nothing else. He also said that if you don't want to leave, let me take action and kill you." Send it away."
At the end of the sentence, Gu Caiwei smiled. After Shen Lian became enlightened, if she had not returned the elixir, it would be difficult for her to teach this junior brother a lesson. She really wanted to see Shen Lian resist and give her junior brother an unforgettable experience.
Of course, Shen Lian had known for a long time that Gu Caiwei's evil demeanor was hidden beneath her gentle appearance, so he would not give Gu Caiwei this chance.
He said calmly: "Then I will strictly abide by the teachings of the Master."
Shen Lian has nothing to gain, and the sandalwood sword is carried with him by the art of Qiankun in his sleeve, so there is no need to pack it away and salute.
He just said goodbye to Gu Caiwei and did not go to see the head coach Zhang Ruoxu again.
This is the second time he has gone down the mountain, and it is different from the first time, because he doesn’t know when he will come back, and he may never come back in his lifetime.
In human life, one comes and goes naked.
Shen Lian couldn't say how much he was reluctant to give up, but when he came out of Qingxuan, he felt that in the vast world, Qingxuan was still the best. There were no disputes, and the heaven and earth were blessed!
Putting aside these scattered thoughts, Shen Lian thought about the Shen family. Maybe it was time to go back and take a look. After all, it was closely related to his body.
Sixteen years have passed. Although it has not changed the world, it has been enough to bring about huge changes in the human world.
But the biggest change is that the Wei Dynasty has changed its dynasty and changed its surname to Zhou.
This world is vast and boundless. Shen Lian saw a record in Qingxuan. There was a Qi practitioner who randomly chose a direction, controlled a magic weapon, and flew for a hundred years. In the end, he died of old age on the road. Discover where the end of the world is.
The Great Wei Dynasty was located on a continent that stretched hundreds of thousands of miles across, and it only occupied a part of it.
In Qingxuan's records, this continent is called Yuanzhou, and most of the people living there have never been to other continents in their lives.
Only characters from the immortal family have magical powers to bridge such a distance.
