As the sea of qi was filled with the condensed true qi, and as the true qi began to infiltrate his body, a fresh breath emanated from his body.
This is like a secluded orchid, which finally opens slowly at this moment.
Li Daoji was standing in front of the leek field outside the thatched hut at the moment. Although he couldn't know the changes in Ding Ning's body, he was the one who knew Ding Ning's previous practice best. He knew that Ding Ning's practice had been extremely stable before that.
This kind of stability made him look forward to it.
At this moment, he looked at the clouds in the sky, and suddenly felt the fresh breath emanating from the thatched cottage. He instantly understood what Ding Ning had done, and a very rare excited smile appeared on his face.
He lightly tapped his feet on the ground and jumped straight forward.
His figure passed through the white clouds and landed on the mountain path of Baiyang Cave.
On weekdays, he often flies like this, but this time he jumped a little hard, and the height of the fall was a little astonishing.
Then with a bang, the sound of his landing echoed continuously in the valley.
Many people noticed Li Daoji's strangeness.
Zhang Yi was going down the mountain, preparing to practice at the bottom of Baiyang Cave, but just looking up and seeing the strange expression on Li Daoji's face, he thought of some possibility, and his whole body stiffened inexplicably.
"Uncle Li Daoji..." He bowed his hands in salute.
Before he could say anything more, Li Daoji, who was on the mountain road not far above him, nodded towards him and said, "He has broken through."
"This is..." Zhang Yi's stiff body shook violently. Although he was somewhat prepared in his heart, when he really heard these words, he was so surprised that he almost fell off the mountain path.
"This is really astonishing." It wasn't until after a few breaths that his voice was still trembling that he came back to his senses completely, and he was able to utter such a complete sentence.
"Ding Ning really broke the barrier?"
"Ding Ning really broke through from the first level to the second level?"
"Ding Ning really refined Qi in one month?!"
Almost all the students of Baiyangdong have already walked to the mountain path outside.
All the people opened their mouths, looking up at the sky above as if they were watching a sudden rainstorm.
"real?"
At this moment, even Xue Wangxu, who was meditating in the highest Taoist temple, felt this strange sound.
He opened his eyes and instantly understood what happened.
"Aiyo..." A soft cry of pain.
He accidentally tore off several of his beards.
…
The sun is already in the west, and the sunset is getting stronger.
The Ivy Sword Academy is already preparing for the dinner for all the spectators.
Students from more than 20 places of practice who came to observe the ceremony had already arrived, gathered in the open space in front of a stone hall of the Ivy Sword Academy, and the students from the main school of the Ivy Sword Academy also joined, making the scene even more lively.
Nangong Caishu was also sitting next to Xu Heshan and Xie Changsheng at this time, and Xie Rou, the sister who made Xie Changsheng afraid, was sitting next to Xie Changsheng.
Xie Changsheng had a bitter face, and had to accept a few words of lecture from time to time.
"Until now there has been no movement in Aries Cave. One month has passed. Now that people are betting with you, do you still bet?"
"I don't know what you think. Even if you haven't seen people working hard to earn some money, you should think more about your family. Why are you jumping out to argue with Gu Xichun? Not to mention that Gu Xichun might enter Min Even if he fails in the Minshan Sword Festival, he will definitely achieve good results in the future with his current level of cultivation. The business at home is all about harmony and wealth, and you are the most likely to cause trouble. If you don’t restrain yourself , I will definitely make enemies everywhere in the family in the future."
"The money given to you by the family is for you to use it for cultivation or traveling and making friends, is it for you to bet on this boy from the wine shop?"
Xie Changsheng has long been used to Xie Rou's temper and this kind of discipline, and the lifeblood of daily expenses is in her hands, so he can only silently say "I can't hear, I can't hear", but Nangong Caishu heard it Xie Rou took a sip from the wine shop boy, but her brows gradually raised.
"I heard you said at the gate of my Ivy Sword Academy that if Ding Ning breaks through in January, you will make him Xie Changsheng's brother-in-law." She couldn't help looking at Xie Rou, who had a pretty face full of sternness, and interjected: "Xie Changsheng Are there any other sisters?"
"He only has me as a sister."
Xie Rou heard the voice of Nangong Caishu's words, she smiled boldly, and said: "Sister Caishu, don't say that he only has me as a sister, even if there is one, how can I still decide for others? ?”
Nangong Caishu thought about Ding Ning's physical condition, and thought of the elixir that her father had not given back for a long time. She felt even more anxious, so she said with a straight face, "Then are you serious? If you really wait for Ding Ning If you practice Qi for a month, you really have to marry him?"
Xu Heshan was stunned at the side, thinking, could it be that autumn is so dry, and even people are prone to frizz, why is it that even Nangong Caishu speaks so coldly today, with a gun and a stick
Seeing Nangong Caishu's cold and hard face, Xie Rou was slightly startled, but then smiled indifferently: "Who doesn't know that our Xie family's business is always promises, although I am not a man, I will not go back on my word."
Just now, the voice of Nangong Caishu's words was not low, so Xu Heshan felt that Nangong Caishu was a little strange today, and now Xie Rou's answer was also sonorous and powerful, and everyone around heard it.
Not far away, Gu Xichun was drinking by himself in a chic manner. Seeing such a scene, he couldn't help laughing and shaking his head, thinking that it has been so long since he entered the mountain gate, yet he is still talking about that person's problems. boring enough.
However, at this moment, several heavy footsteps sounded.
Someone rushed over quickly, and couldn't control the true energy under his feet, kicking up a large cloud of dust.
Nangong Caishu frowned, looked along the footsteps, but found that it was his senior brother Xiang Miao.
This Xiang Miao started a year earlier than her, and has a loyal and honest temperament. He usually acts much more calmly than her, but now he looks shocked and flustered.
She couldn't help but said, "Brother Xiang, what happened, so flustered?"
"One... one... one..." Xiang Miao's face was flushed and his breathing was rapid. His mood swings were too intense, and he said three "ones" in a row, but he couldn't say anything more.
Nangong Caishu's eyes suddenly lit up, she paused for breath, and subconsciously called out: "Could it be that Ding Ning has really broken through to the second level and has refined Qi in January?"
When all the students in the venue heard Nangong Caishu's words, their immediate natural reaction was still that it was impossible, but Xiang Miao's reaction made the venue suddenly fall into absolute silence, and everyone seemed to be surrounded by the cold. The north wind froze instantly.
Xiang Miao breathed heavily and nodded.
Gu Xichun's mocking expression froze on his face, and his fingers also froze.
There was a great shock and absurd clarity in his heart, which made his mind roar.
"This is real?"
A loud exclamation came from Xie Changsheng's mouth, breaking the dead silence. The emotions on his face were very complicated, as if a scroll had been painted with various colors.
Xiang Miao nodded again.
At this moment, he was finally able to speak completely. He said with difficulty: "The news from Baiyang Cave just now... Ding Ning has successfully broken through the realm and has reached the Qi Refining Realm."
Gu Xichun's face began to turn pale, and his stiff fingers trembled slightly.
He didn't need to ask for further confirmation, because the news was too shocking, and Xiang Miao must have carefully verified it before coming in to announce it.
It's just that no one noticed his face at the moment.
All eyes involuntarily focused on Xie Rou who was beside Xie Changsheng.
Everyone wanted to know what she was going to say at this moment.
Xie Rou's complexion was snow-white, her eyelashes trembling non-stop.
The older sister who was domineering and strict before now seems to have become a delicate and pitiful girl who needs to be relied on.
Nangong Caishu felt even happier.
She couldn't help but want to laugh out loud.
However, what she and everyone else didn't expect was that Xie Rou's weakness became hard again in just this breath, her lips were still trembling slightly, but the lines on her face became cold and hard.
"What my Xie family in Guanzhong said is a promise, and it will never change."
"Since Ding Ning really breaks through today and refines Qi in a day, I will naturally keep my promise and not marry unless he is the one."
Everyone in the room wanted to see her jokes, even her younger brother Xie Changsheng who was beside her, but after these two words came out, everyone in the room was shocked by her instead.
Xie Changsheng was completely stunned.
Is this for real
What made everyone present speechless again was that there was a clear and clear sound of clang.
She drew the long sword at her waist.
Her sword is also wide, heavy and straight, not like the saber commonly used by women at all.
The blade and blade are gray-black, like the color of half-burned charcoal, but the straight spine is bright white.
This black and white long sword, whether it is the hilt, the shape and size of the sword body, or even the scabbard, is most in line with the etiquette and specifications of sword making in the Guanzhong area.
There was a soft "shua".
In her hand, the long sword gently cut across the cold air, and across a strand of her hair.
A strand of black hair fell down and landed in her hands.
"Xie Rou, daughter of Xie's parents in Guanzhong, swears here."
Her cold voice sounded again, frightening.
Everyone was shocked and speechless again.
No one expected that this woman from Guanzhong would have such a strong temperament that she would swear a heavy oath in public.
