There was no talking all night, and the bonfire in the ruined temple was extinguished at some point, leaving only a few wisps of white smoke slowly drifting upward.
Through the damaged wall, you could faintly see that the sky outside was already dimly bright. Sanwu looked at the two of them curiously for a while at first, then closed his eyes and meditated. On the other hand, after being in a daze for a long time, Pei Susu started to close her eyes and rest with a smile after looking at Zhao Jiuge's practice.
It was just at this time that Zhao Jiuge felt a wave of spiritual power all over his body, and the spiritual power aura on his body became more solid.
Pei Susu and Sanwu were both awakened by this wave, and opened their eyes one after another. Surprise appeared on their faces. They did not expect that Zhao Jiuge would have a breakthrough in cultivation at this time.
Sanwu's eyes were fixed on Zhao Jiuge. The brief moment when Zhao Jiuge's aura leaked, he noticed Zhao Jiuge's cultivation. In the late stage of the spiritual elixir realm, this spiritual energy aura is thicker, so the quality of the condensed elixir must be good. , this can also explain why Zhao Jiuge was elected as the chief disciple of Xuantian Sword Sect with such strength. According to the information he received, Zhao Jiuge was only in the middle stage of the spiritual elixir realm when he participated in the exchange meeting of the Seven Holy Lands. Maybe others are paying attention. Zhao Jiuge's strength is high, but what he values is the details. Others may not know, but he has read records in the temple. Generally, the higher the quality of the elixir, the higher the quality of the monks, although it means that the strength is stronger, but the strength will increase later. The speed will become slower, which he himself also deeply understands.
Pei Susu was heartless and didn't think so much. All he cared about was Zhao Jiuge. As for the breakthrough in strength, she was just happy for Zhao Jiuge. She knew in her heart how much he had sacrificed for his strength.
After Xiao Hei swallowed the inner elixir of the tiger dragon, he became even more lethargic. Even such a big movement did not disturb him. He still lay on the layer of dry and yellowed hay, sleeping with his belly up. , the belly covered with white hair undulates slightly.
Zhao Jiuge, who was practicing, naturally felt a breakthrough in his cultivation. There had been no breakthrough for so long, which made Zhao Jiuge feel a little anxious. Fortunately, after yesterday's collision with the tiger dragon's body, he accidentally made a breakthrough. It seemed that the accumulation in daily life was finally achieved. It has some uses. At the same time, after breaking through to the late stage of the spiritual elixir realm, you will encounter a bottleneck. This makes Zhao Jiuge feel slightly worried. It is so difficult to break through from the middle to the late spiritual elixir realm. So in the spiritual elixir realm, it is so difficult to break through. In the later stage, if you break through to the Nascent Soul Realm, it will not be difficult to reach the sky.
Seeing that the top evil disciples in the surrounding Holy Land had already broken through to the Nascent Soul Realm, and even Su Su had already reached the middle stage of the Nascent Soul Realm, he was already very anxious. The date of the sect martial arts competition in two years was getting closer and closer. , which put more pressure on him, but the key to cultivation is to let nature take its course. Even if he was anxious, it was useless. He could only stare and practice silently.
The blue-white elixir in the body has also grown a bit larger, and is surrounded by a soft halo as fine as smoke. These lingering halos firmly envelope the eighth-grade elixir.
Maybe Zhao Jiuge thought that his cultivation was slow, but he didn't know that he had an eighth-grade spiritual elixir and only had such qualifications. If his body had not been cleansed by Jian Wuxin in the sect, his cultivation speed would be even slower.
Others may have reached the Nascent Soul realm through fast cultivation, but the quality of their spiritual elixirs is not as good as his. Although their cultivation speed is slow, for him, the advantage is that they are at the same level, and his own spiritual power is far beyond it. With the help of others, and the assistance of some magic weapons and spells of his own, he has the strength to not be afraid even when facing a monk who has stayed in the spiritual elixir realm for many years.
And after all, his own starting point is too high. When he entered the master, he practiced in the holy land with profound foundations such as Xuantian Sword Sect. He did not practice by himself like those casual cultivators, and he only looked at those who were more powerful than himself. Those who have achieved success have not seen those who have not been able to condense the spiritual elixir in their entire lives because they do not have a good technique. Those casual cultivators cannot even produce magic weapons and spiritual stone techniques, let alone some magic techniques. Decided.
In practice, a skill determines the path you take. As for your own qualifications, it depends on how far you go. As for other treasures, you need to rely on your own opportunities.
To put it bluntly, Zhao Jiuge was under too much pressure now because he became the chief disciple. As the martial arts competition of the sect approached, he began to feel a little impetuous.
Looking at the elixir that was about the size of an egg, Zhao Jiuge felt a sense of expectation in his heart. He didn't know what the Yuanying transformed into would be like with the quality of the eighth-grade elixir. Once he broke through to the Yuan realm, Zhao Jiuge would be like entering the Yuan realm. As a fish in the sea, its own strength will undergo an unprecedented change, and at the same time, its three spiritual weapons will also be put into better use.
The spiritual energy in the body is constantly flowing, passing through the dantian in the abdomen, nourishing the elixir. Seeing the lingering halo surrounding the elixir, Zhao Jiuge knows that he is now waiting for his elixir to absorb enough spiritual energy, and then he needs to With an opportunity, this spiritual elixir can lose its shackles and transform into a Nascent Soul, which will create a whole new world!
With joy, Zhao Jiuge slowly opened his eyes, and what came into view was Su Su's stunning face full of concern, and Xiao Hei, who was still lying next to him, sleeping soundly.
Sanwu had already stood up, moving his muscles and bones at the door of the ruined temple, breathing in the fresh morning air. He had been accustomed to the rules of temple life for many years since he was a child, but he was not used to it during this time.
"Breakthrough?"
Pei Susu looked at Zhao Jiuge with a smile and said softly. She sat cross-legged on the futon, propped up her chin with two palms, and looked at Zhao Jiuge with burning eyes.
"Um."
Zhao Jiuge nodded, opened his hands and stretched, then slowly stood up and moved his body, which was a little stiff due to being motionless all night.
Looking at Pei Susu's smiling face and the care inadvertently revealed in her tone, Zhao Jiuge's heart fluttered. Everything he had at the moment made him feel so satisfied. Sometimes he would think that maybe he could be with her like this. Living a lifetime is also a pleasant thing.
Even if I forget those graceful figures that linger in my mind, even if I can't live forever in the end, I won't have any regrets.
"Let's go, let's move around and prepare to leave. It's time to hurry up." Zhao Jiuge took Pei Susu's hand and walked to Sanwu's side at the door.
The three of them looked at the scenery in front of them together. Everything was so fresh and natural, which made them feel a lot more peaceful. The only thing that made the scenery a bit disturbing was that the corpse of the tiger dragon was still lying there quietly, and there were people nearby. It's the mark left from last night's fight.
Zhao Jiuge told them the route they had planned, and then asked, "Sanwu, are you sure you want to join us? Are you sure you are going to the same place as us?"
"The young monk is here just for experience. It doesn't matter where he goes. He just wants to see the wonders of the world, experience the customs and customs of various places, and kill some monsters and monsters to save all sentient beings."
Sanwu had a serious face, clasped his hands, and said in an even and powerful tone. I don’t know why. Every time Zhao Jiuge saw Sanwu’s delicate features and a little baby fat face, it was difficult to associate this fair and chubby bald boy with a monk. When we got together, we couldn't help but laugh secretly.
After a night of cultivation, everyone's energy was almost restored. Zhao Jiuge said with a little excitement, "Let's go, it's completely dawn and we should set off. It just so happens that I also want to see the customs and customs of the thirteen states of China as soon as possible."
But when he said this, his tone paused slightly, because he thought again of the woman he promised to take to the thirteen states of China. He didn't know where she was now and whether she was living well.
Returning to the ruined temple, he picked up Xiao Hei, who was still sleeping soundly, and put him in the clothes on his chest. Then Zhao Jiuge bowed respectfully to the Buddha statue, and then turned around and took Sanwu and Pei Susu with him. left here.
In an instant, everything here became calm again.
Passing through the lush flowers and plants in the woods, the three of them walked in the direction of the rising sun. As they fell into a brief silence, there was only the sound of friction between their thighs and the surrounding flowers and plants as they walked.
The sun shone fullly on the earth, bathing the three people in a layer of sunshine, and the warmth made them feel much better.
"Jiu Ge, let's get out of the mountains later and walk along the official road. Not only is the road here difficult to walk, but we also don't run into any trouble later. The most important thing is to walk along the official road to find traces of people. ah."
Sanwu kept turning the channeling Buddha beads in his hand and said calmly that for him, the biggest purpose of this experience was to subjugate demons and save all living beings. If you stay like this in the mountains, you won't be able to see a single person.
"Hmph, I don't believe that anyone without a long-sighted mind dares to cause trouble, otherwise the consequences will be the same as the fate of the tiger dragon yesterday."
Pei Susu pouted her lips slightly, snorted softly, and said in a cute and playful manner.
Sanwu seemed a little afraid of Pei Susu. As soon as he heard Pei Susu speak, Sanwu, who was walking in the middle, immediately quickened his pace and walked to the front to lead the way.
Zhao Jiuge smiled helplessly. The three of them saw Pei Susu like a mouse meeting a cat, one was delicate and savage, and the other was like a wooden fish.
"Okay, after crossing this mountain, we will walk along the official road and take a look at the towns along the way. I will also find an auction house to look for something." Zhao Jiuge had no choice but to say something at this time, lest Susu would take Sanwu again later. Joking.
If it were another person, maybe Zhao Jiuge would not take him on the road with him, but seeing Sanwu's innocent appearance and being an orphan resonated in Zhao Jiuge's heart, so he took Sanwu with him. Maybe it was true. Sanwu said that meeting each other was fate, and Zhao Jiuge really liked Sanwu.
And now that he has swallowed the colorful flowing light grass, the power of the Sanskrit Golden Body is becoming more and more manifest. This makes Zhao Jiuge seem to see a way to improve his strength. Since the cultivation level cannot be broken through for the time being, the sword skill cannot be achieved in a short while. After enlightenment, I will first increase the power of the Holy Body of Sanskrit Sound.
According to records, in order to cultivate all the Sanskrit Golden Body in the Sanskrit Holy Body, in addition to the Arhat Holy Fruit and the Colorful Light Grass, a cold light flower elixir is also needed.
Only these three kinds of heavenly materials and earthly treasures can be used to cultivate the Sanskrit Golden Body, so that through step-by-step cultivation, the maximum power of the Golden Body can be exerted. Zhao Jiuge wanted to go to the auction group in the town this time because he wanted to find the Cold Light Grass. Whereabouts, this is more important to him. You must know that he does not have a basic understanding of Hanguang Flower. He has only seen pictures of Hanguang Flower from the jade tube.
The three of them walked entirely on foot, so the time along the way seemed a bit long. Fortunately, Pei Susu and Sanwu were with them along the way so they didn't feel lonely.
Although Sanwu looked dull, from time to time he would always say something that made the two of them laugh. This reminded Zhao Jiuge of the three years he spent practicing at Xuantian Sword Sect, and the laughter in front of him at this moment. It was so familiar, just like the brother named Luo Xie who was next to him always did things that only a living treasure could do, making himself and Leng Rufeng helpless.
