It's late at night and everyone is asleep.
At some point, light rain started to fall from the sky again.
The spring rain is cold and drizzles.
It soaked the soil, wet the flowers and plants, and added a touch of misty charm to the sword edge.
In the cave.
Luo Qingzhou soaked in the warm spring water, thinking about the conversation he had just had with his uncle.
"… It's so unfair, how could it be so fast? I just broke through…"
"If you're faster, I'll be faster."
"But, I practice hard every day, and Uncle Master..."
“It’s been hard for me too.”
"Oh, Uncle Master, if my cultivation progress doesn't move, you won't move either, right?"
"Um."
"That is to say, if you are bound to me, your cultivation will grow and stagnate along with my cultivation, right?"
"yes."
"How long will it last?"
"lifetime."
"… Then, can you unbind me?"
"Okay, I will destroy all my cultivation, and then... die."
"So serious?"
"Yes. Once it's confirmed, it can never be changed, and it can only be you forever."
"Uncle Master... By the way, what if my cultivation is completely destroyed, or I die suddenly?"
"Me too."
"Uncle Master..."
The expression on Luo Qingzhou's face was quite complicated.
When Sister Yue told him about this physique, he thought it was just a simple dual cultivation.
Unexpectedly, it could bind to the host like a contracted spirit beast.
Moreover, no matter whether it is cultivation or life, they are closely bound to the host, sharing the same fate and life and death.
To be honest, he was somewhat touched.
The uncle gave him everything she had, including her fate and life.
"If you don't want to, you can cancel it."
"Uncle Master, of course I am willing. But I am a little curious, how can I get rid of it?"
"It's simple. You won't help me break through."
"Not helping you break through?"
"Just like now, my cultivation process is full. If you don't help me, it will be automatically lifted in one... two days. You won't be hurt, and I..."
"Uncle Master, isn't that right? Two days? I remember when we were at the border, your cultivation progress was also full at that time, and we waited for several days before..."
“Sometimes it’s two days, sometimes it’s a month.”
"...Uncle Master, even if you are anxious, there is no need to scare me, right?"
"I'm not in a hurry. I just want to break through and help you."
"Master uncle is so nice..."
"Then let's get started."
"Wait, where's the Master?"
The scene suddenly fell silent.
a long time.
Linghu Qingzhu said calmly: "I knew you said one thing and meant another."
Then he said expressionlessly: "Help me practice first, and when I break through, I will... call her to join me."
Luo Qingzhou's mouth twitched, and he quickly said: "Uncle Master, you may have misunderstood. What I mean is, is Master hiding somewhere and spying on us now?"
Linghu Qingzhu glanced around and said, "It shouldn't be. She just went back to the main peak to practice."
"Uncle Master, are you sure?"
"Sure."
"Okay... I hope that this time my breakthrough doesn't involve any thunder tribulation. Otherwise, I'll alert the others again."
"Don't worry, you can blame any strange phenomena in the world on me and the little crocodile."
"Master uncle is so great... No, Master uncle is so nice..."
Outside the cave, the spring rain is continuous.
After daybreak, the sword's edge was still as quiet as before.
Su Feng and Su Yu were both practicing in the cave.
Dao Ling is still in the army.
Therefore, the sword edge seemed particularly lonely and cold. No one could be seen, only birds chirping in the bamboo forest.
In the evening.
The spring rain is still falling continuously.
The cave door slowly opened.
Luo Qingzhou stood at the door, staring in a daze at the misty scenery outside.
Uncle Master made the breakthrough easily.
The physical body broke through to the mid-stage of the Grandmaster, and the progress of the soul also reached one hundred.
The breakthrough happened silently, without any strange phenomena in the sky or on earth. It was truly low-key.
And he still needs to prepare.
This is to avoid running out of energy when the time comes to break through and all your efforts being wasted.
After all, it is the peak realm of the Grand Master.
He had no Yuanshi, no elixir, only spiritual liquid, and he didn't know if it was enough.
Take a night off before you start again.
After watching the rain for a while, he closed the cave door and returned to the practice room.
The uncle was lying on the couch, sleeping soundly.
Just as he was about to walk over, he suddenly noticed a package next to the bathtub.
There definitely wasn’t one before.
He was stunned for a moment, then immediately walked over and picked up the package.
He turned his head and looked around.
Uncle Master's cave is not only restricted but also protected by a mountain protection formation, so it is impossible for others to enter.
only…
The corner of his mouth twitched and he opened the package curiously.
The package was actually filled with crystal clear stones!
Two of the Yuan Stones looked particularly different, and they were actually mid-level Yuan Stones!
He was stunned for a moment, and suddenly shouted to all around: "Master!"
There was silence all around, and no one responded.
In Dayan, even low-level Yuanshi are extremely precious, not to mention mid-level Yuanshi.
Most of the practitioners in Dayan may never have seen a mid-level Yuan Stone in their entire lives.
Where did the master get it from
He picked up one of the intermediate-level Yuan Stones and held it in his hand. He immediately felt a pure and vast energy flowing into his body through the palm of his hand.
The fatigue just now was instantly swept away.
Without further hesitation, he took the bag of Yuanshi and walked to another training room next door, sat down, and began to prepare for the breakthrough.
Close your eyes and meditate.
Then, he began to slowly practice the technique to mobilize the energy in his Danhai.
The energy began to gather in the first acupoint.
More and more, more and more violent.
"boom!"
Then, it surged into the meridians like a tide, and then rushed towards the solid pass high up!
once!
twice!
three times…
Each time is more fierce and smoother than the last!
The night passed quietly.
After dawn.
The spring rain outside the cave finally stopped.
The sun shines down, and raindrops fall on the flowers, grass and bamboos on the sword peak, sparkling and clear.
A rainbow appeared high in the sky.
Suddenly, a sobbing flute sound was heard on the edge of the cliff.
Wearing a red dress, dancing lightly.
In the training room, Linghu Qingzhu slowly opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling of the cave in a daze.
A long time passed.
She then slowly sat up.
Inside the body, one can clearly feel the powerful energy of a mid-stage grandmaster, and can also feel another stream of burning energy slowly moving in the abdomen.
She stroked her abdomen and stayed there for a long time before getting off the couch.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he stood up, his legs suddenly went weak and he almost fell down, so he sat back down.
Take a short break.
She began to practice the technique, and the energy in her body began to flow slowly throughout her body.
A while later.
She then carefully stood up and left the training room.
A slight energy fluctuation was heard from the training room next door.
She stood at the door for a while, without disturbing him, but followed the sound of the flute and left the cave.
Outside the cave, the sun is shining brightly.
But the morning wind still carries the chill after the rain.
Linghu Qingzhu glanced at the flowers and plants beside him. After being beaten by wind and rain, they were in a mess.
She walked towards the edge of the cliff.
The flute sound stopped.
Fairy Zixia in a red dress turned around, looked at her and asked, "Another breakthrough?"
Linghu Qingzhu was silent for a moment and said nothing.
Fairy Zixia sighed softly, looked at the sea of clouds in the distance, and said, "It's okay, I'm used to it. Besides, I already know that you have a special physique, one-of-a-kind, only you can do it, I can't. So, I... I'm fine."
Linghu Qingzhu was silent for a while before he said, "Actually..."
Fairy Zixia looked at her and asked, "Actually what?"
Linghu Qingzhu met his gaze and said, "In fact, his thunder spirit energy can help anyone to cultivate, and if you absorb more of it, your body will be tempered repeatedly, and you won't be afraid of thunder anymore."
Fairy Zixia was silent for a moment, then said, "I know. But..."
Linghu Qingzhu walked to the edge of the cliff, looked at the undulating sea of clouds in the distance, and said: "I can't help him all the time. My physique... I can cultivate very quickly, so I can follow him all the way... to the Martial King. Although he is very powerful, it will be difficult for him to break through from the Martial King to the Thunder Tribulation. However..."
"But what?"
Fairy Zixia looked at her, and suddenly a bad premonition arose in her heart.
Linghu Qingzhu looked at the distance calmly and said, "Nothing. I can help him break through when the time comes."
Fairy Zixia's heart trembled immediately, and she looked at her with a face full of doubt and uncertainty: "Can you help him break through? From the Martial King to the Thunder Tribulation? Qingzhu, even if your physique is so strong, it is impossible for you to help him break through to the Thunder Tribulation easily. Do you... need to pay a price?"
Linghu Qingzhu did not answer. He was silent for a moment and said softly, "If it weren't for him, I would have had a hard time breaking through to the Grandmaster level. Now, I'm already a Grandmaster, and he might be able to help me break through to the Martial King level. How many Martial Kings are there in this world? And he's a Martial King who has cultivated both his body and soul and has achieved unity. So... no matter what I give for him in the future, it will be worth it."
Fairy Zixia grabbed her hand and frowned, "Qingzhu, tell me clearly what the price will be? I knew that you could cultivate so quickly and so easily, there must be other problems!"
She suddenly asked again, "After you help him break through the thunder tribulation, will you... If that's the case, then what are you now? Are you the spiritual beast he raises, or the spiritual pills he refines? Or the food he stores? You follow him to advance, become stronger with him, and then, just to sacrifice yourself in the future to help him break through?"
Linghu Qingzhu's eyes gradually revealed a hint of tenderness, and he whispered, "I am willing."
"stupid!"
At this moment, a huge whirlpool suddenly appeared above the cave.
Immediately, the vital energy of heaven and earth around it began to gather rapidly towards the vortex.
The fog lingering over the entire Lingxiao Peak also began to flow rapidly.
"This is… "
"It seems like someone is about to break through! Judging from the situation, it must be a breakthrough of at least Grandmaster level!"
"It's Jianfeng! It's Jianfeng again! Look at that vortex..."
"It's Peak Master Linghu again..."
"… "
At this moment, all the senior members of Lingxiao Sect gathered in the square of the main peak. When they saw the huge vortex of vitality appear on the sword peak, they all fell silent.
Even Zhuang Zhiyan came after hearing the news, and then they all fell into silence...
