"Aunt Qing?"
Yu Ci looked around in astonishment, only to see a long shadow flying in the sky. Above it, a female cultivator stood out of thin air. She was dressed in simple clothes. Her eyes swept over the two of them, but there was something about her usually unsmiling face. Surprise.
"Where is the immortal?"
Isn’t this the territory that Xie Yan is responsible for? Yu Ci didn't expect to meet each other here, but he was even more surprised that Gan Shizhen called him. When we first met, didn't the female cultivator call Yu Zhou her senior brother? Why did he meet He Qing, who was the same generation as the old Taoist, and yet he was demoted to the next generation? It's a pity that no one can answer him now. He Qing can only hear soft praise:
"Today you are flying in the sky, you are in another realm of heaven and earth. Shizhen, you really have a bright future."
"Aunt Qing was so impressed."
The smile when they first met faded away, and the delicate female cultivator lowered her face slightly and responded softly. Yu Ci kept looking at her. After spending many days together, Yu Ci also had some understanding of the female cultivator's temperament. He always felt that after the female cultivator met He Qing, her attitude was a little weird, like joy, but also a little raw, which was very contradictory.
But he was more envious. He knew that since the moment he woke up a few days ago, Gan Shizhen has officially entered the realm of Buxu, breaking the so-called "Zi Xing Pass" in practice, which is the limit of decline for three hundred years. From then on, female cultivators will have more time and more opportunities to explore the path of immortality, something that the white-haired Taoist Yu Zhou has not been able to do so far.
Of course, this kind of achievement was achieved at the cost of one's life. Standing for more than ten days and nights under the watchful eyes of hundreds of demons, even against the ghost beasts with Buxu cultivation level, such training is something that no ordinary person can endure. On the road of spiritual practice, this is how you lay the foundation and climb up step by step. There is no chance of luck.
He was looking at others, and others were also looking at him. He Qing's eyes turned around and his face returned to its usual seriousness: "I heard about the dock, but you are too presumptuous. The ghost beast is the abandoned pet of the Rakshasa Ghost King, and it is also famous in the spiritual world. As a spiritual cultivator, what qualifications do you have to stand up to him?"
Yu Ci bowed in response and said again: "Responsibility is bound to happen."
He Qing's expression softened slightly: "The sect already knows this. It's rare that you are quite chivalrous. The people in Datongxing praised you greatly, saying that you risked your own life, diverted the ghost beasts, and protected the lives of many people in the dock. Zhouquan, this has not ruined the reputation of the sect."
As he said that, He Qing stared at him for a while and asked suspiciously: "You have made great progress in your cultivation...have you entered the upper level of spiritual communication?"
Yu Ci responded yes, but saw a strange light shining from He Qing's eyes, which made him feel hot. Just when he was wondering, Gan Shizhen whispered softly: "Is his progress a little too fast?"
Hearing what she said, Yu Ci could only smile bitterly in his heart. It was really a coincidence that when he took out the fine gauze from Nan Songzi the day before yesterday, Gan Shizhen woke up and immediately noticed the residual evil spirit on it. The female cultivator was also kind-hearted and not only took away the fine gauze, but also prepared to help He purged the filth, but from then on he was still worried about his practice, fearing that he would progress too quickly and go astray.
He Qing glanced at her, but did not respond immediately, and then looked back at Yu Ci carefully.
"Aunt Qing?"
Gan Shizhen asked again, and He Qing said calmly: "It's nothing...
When she said this, she suddenly smiled. In a rare smile, she nodded slightly: "You really impressed me."
But it only took a moment before her smile faded: "Let's go down and talk in detail."
After that, she flew down first, followed by Yu and Gan. Seeing that Yu Ci was still confused, Gan Shizhen explained softly: "When Aunt Qing was not practicing, she was the daughter of a wealthy family with the surname He in the East. My mother was also born here, so she was like Aunt Qing's sister. After practicing, I talked about the friendship between the two sects. , but they are ordinary people.”
Yu Ci suddenly realized that they were related. It's no wonder that the Lichen Sect and the Siming Sect have been on good terms for generations. The relationship between them is indeed deeply involved, but this generation is a bit messy.
************
It didn’t take long to describe what happened in the Sky Rift Valley, and Yu Ci took a break in Cliff City. One day into the city, some commotion was caused. After the news of his entry into the city spread, Shi Song and Hu Dan from Wanlingmen came together to visit him. In the next few days, important figures from all the sects in the city came to visit, and they seemed to be busy, but they did not slack off because he was no longer responsible for the affairs of Cliff City.
However, Yu Ci knew very well that this situation was ultimately due to the attitude of Yu Zhou, Xie Yan and others towards him. That information reached the ears of Shi Song and others through various channels. These sects, who relied on the Lichen Sect to live, naturally knew what attitude to use to deal with it.
However, the real focus of Cliff City at this stage is not Yu Ci's return, but a banquet.
On the fifth day of April, at Tianyi Tower, the luxurious night banquet arranged by Master Bichao of the Xuanyin Sect has become the subject of heated discussion among everyone in Cliff City. When Bichao invited him, Yu Ci didn't take it seriously, but now he found that the banquet he had booked had already become famous in Cliff City and even the surrounding areas.
The reason for this situation is not just because this is the best opportunity for Bichao to show his attitude since he came to power, but also because this is a grand event that has failed miserably and is now being restarted.
Probably the background of Xuanyin Sect in the East played a role. Master Bichao actually successfully invited the caravan from Suixin Pavilion to come to Cliff City again. The Yibao Banquet was still held in Tianyi Tower, which was the same as that day's event. The banquet becomes one. That gesture clearly made Sui Xin Ge fall down and get up again!
Not to mention the valuable treasures that came with the group, just the thrilling incident that night was the best gimmick, arousing people's curiosity infinitely. It can be seen from this that Xuanyin Sect has really made great efforts. Legend has it that at that banquet, the Xuanyin Sect also took out some treasures collected by the Eastern Rakshasa Sect, displayed them at the same table, and exchanged them with the monks at the banquet.
The craze caused by this banquet was more intense and more deliberate than that of the Yibao Banquet that day. Anyone can see what the Xuanyin Sect is thinking, but the biggest difference between the new Master Bichao and the former Fairy Chiyin is that her attitude is extremely upright and she makes it clear that she wants to be kind to others, making it difficult for people to refuse.
Yu Ci did not return to Bichao, but the news he heard was that the new master actually went to Yishan Yunzhou Wharf to inquire about him. During the nearly one month since Yu Ci rode the ghost beast away to the Sky Rift Valley, apart from Yu Zhou, Xie Yan and others, Bichao was the most attentive, which was surprising.
Now even Xie Yan and the others cannot continue to pay attention like Bi Chao.
According to He Qing, shortly after Yu Ci rode the ghost beast to the west, Yu Zhou and others learned the news, and immediately went to the Tian Rift Valley to search and rescue. However, at this time, a major incident occurred in the north of the practice world, and all major sects Mendu sent elite forces to observe. Even if Xie Yan and Xie Liang were reluctant, they could not disobey the sect's orders, so they were sent out.
At this time, the search and rescue operations at the dock were short of manpower and had reached a semi-stagnant state, but Bichao's attitude was not compromised at all.
Reminiscent of Bichao's attitude when he came to the pier in person and invited him to the banquet in a low profile, Yu Ci had to sigh that this female cultivator was really two extremes compared to Chi Yin. That soft figure, knowing that she had ulterior motives, made it difficult to refuse, especially when he arrived at Cliff City and came into contact with the warm atmosphere, he couldn't help but think:
This banquet is so lively, it’s okay to attend it...
With the decision, Yu Ci's mind became more stable. At this time, it was dark and quiet outside, and there was a lot of noise. It was a good environment for silent cultivation.
He returned to Cliff City and still lived in the original location of Bairi Mansion. After all, this is the place with the densest concentration of spiritual veins and apertures in a radius of thousands of miles. After that day, this place was given priority to be cleared out and used as the residence of the Lichen Sect Immortal in the cliff city. As for the demon turmoil, the Lichen Sect Immortal withdrew. What happens after he leaves is not something he needs to worry about.
Sitting on the cloud bed, Yu Ci calmed down her mind, and with a slight thought, the Yin spirit came out of her body. Since gaining the ability to travel out of the body, Yu Ci has taken time to practice every day. Nowadays, the speed of the Yin Shen leaving the body is getting faster and faster. The most familiar "Yin Shen method of leaving the body after birth" has reached the point where it can be triggered by thoughts. situation.
The feeling of being out of body is very strange. He could feel his own existence very clearly, but he was still separated from the familiar world. He can pass through walls and transfer properties, he can imitate changes, and he can even become invisible and disappear into nothingness, but no matter what, he always lacks a sense of reality, like a dream
With a flash of thought, the Yin Shen came out through the wall and came to the small garden outside. The ghost-like shadow wandered uncertainly, and produced a series of reactions with the external energy, making the Yin Shen a little hot, but this was already controlled within an acceptable range.
His cultivation in Yin Shen has indeed become more and more advanced.
Yu Ci was in a good mood. He was busy on the road in the past few days and had to be alert to various situations at any time. He never had time to carefully study the various applications of out-of-body mind travel. Now that there are no distractions, he can experience it in detail. good time.
After wandering around the small garden for a few times, Yu Ciyinshen passed through the wall and passed the door to the outside of the house. Just as he was about to fly out of the wall, the void fluctuated slightly at an extremely fast speed. In the blink of an eye, he came into contact with his Yin Shen, and then a message came out.
That was He Qing’s summons.
The night is already dark, and I don’t know what the immortal meant. Yu Ci originally thought of going to see the Yin Shen after she returned to her body, but He Qing's meaning was very clear:
"Just do it this way."
Yu Ci didn't know why, but he was a straightforward person, so he drove the Yinshen to the place where the fluctuation started.
The place where He Qing lives is very close to his private courtyard, but it is larger. Since it is spring, the garden is full of flowers, and the fragrance spreads even at night. Yu Ciyin's spirit floated in with the fragrance of flowers.
He Qing sat in the garden pavilion, glanced at his Yin Shen, and nodded slightly: "Your dragon's true form must have been completely digested. Your Yin Shen achievement, so far, can only be counted as four or five. By the moon, you can travel out of your body. Although your efforts are involved, the beauty of the true form of the heavenly dragon cannot be ignored..."
Yu Ci also thought so and agreed. After hearing his response, the female cultivator sat firmly on the stone bench in the pavilion, her attitude was kind, and she seemed to be chatting away:
"Have you paid attention to what I taught you about the legality of Guixu Ginseng?"
