Chapter 025: Five Years Later!
Just as the title says.
Now it has been five years since Chen Xuanqing became Baimei's apprentice. During these five years, he has lived in seclusion and almost never went out.
Chen Xuanqing scratched his hair. He was influenced by the old otaku Baimei. He began to become a little lazy.
Pushing the door and going outside, Chen Xuanqing cast a spell with one hand and turned it twice in the sky.
"Rain, rain, my spiritual grass will wither in a while."
After Chen Xuanqing said this, dark clouds began to gather slowly on the Emei Peak.
From time to time, a few drops of rain fell.
Chen Xuanqing leaned against the wall, watching the rain getting heavier, and the drops of rain fell into lines.
Nourishing the land under his feet and the spiritual field in front of him.
Chen Xuanqing took the time to open up a spiritual field two years ago, and learned two tricks of calling the wind and rain in Yuxian Tower.
But because his spiritual sea was too large, he almost flooded the entire Emei Peak when he used the rain-calling technique for the first time.
"The eleventh level of Qi training."
"There is only one level left to complete it. It's time to prepare for foundation building."
In the past five years, Chen Xuanqing has practiced a lot of skills and spells while practicing. Basically, he has practiced all the spells that must be practiced by immortal cultivators.
The white-browed old man gave him a lot of spiritual stones.
Speaking of which, this is also thanks to the old blind man. If the old blind man hadn't continuously provided him with spiritual stones, the white-browed old man's spiritual stones would have been used up by him long ago.
"Brother Chen!"
As a familiar voice came from afar, Chen Xuanqing looked around.
The person who came was none other than...
Who was it?
"Junior brother, Jingxu!"
Oh, yes, Jingxu!
Chen Xuanqing nodded, "It's been a long time since I last saw you. Junior brother Tieniu, how are you?"
Brother Chen is still the same.
After five years, Jingxu gradually became mature, and the worldly aura on him became weaker and weaker.
"Brother Chen, you haven't changed at all. You still look the same as you did five years ago. That's great..."
Chen Xuanqing didn't age because his life span was too long.
Even if he never broke through in his life, he would still be so young.
Jingxu shook his head, "Let's not talk about this. Let's talk about business. Xiao Shanhai and the others broke through to the foundation-building stage."
Chen Xuanqing thought for a while, "So they broke through to the foundation-building stage so quickly?"
Jingxu's mouth twitched, "It's all because of you, Brother Chen. You said you didn't need the foundation-building pill, so you gave it to Xiao Shanhai and the others."
"Long Yao also argued with you when he heard what you said. He said he didn't need the foundation-building pill either, and then gave it to Xiao Shanhai and the others."
"Now it's good. Almost all of them have broken through the foundation-building stage and entered the inner gate, but the three of us are still in the Qi training stage."
Chen Xuanqing felt it and Jingxu had reached the tenth level of Qi training.
Presumably, he was also like himself, preparing to reach the perfection of Qi training before building the foundation.
"It's a good thing to enter the inner gate. Which hall did they enter? Has anyone come to my Law Enforcement Hall?"
Jingxu shook his head, "Do you think anyone can enter the Law Enforcement Hall?"
"The Law Enforcement Hall is equivalent to the government office in the human world. You can become the deputy head of the Law Enforcement Hall because the second elder Baimei is the elder of the Law Enforcement Hall."
Chen Xuanqing smiled.
Speaking of which, he, the deputy head, has never been to the Law Enforcement Hall.
"Oh, then which hall did they enter?"
Jingxu said:
"Xiao Shanhai and the others joined the External Affairs Hall, because the disciples of the External Affairs Hall earn more contributions to the sect."
"Hey."
"Look at us, we do sect tasks day and night for a few spirit stones, but you, Brother Chen, are so good, you just grow flowers and water them here every day."
Chen Xuanqing smiled, "I was also influenced by the old otaku Baimei. I usually don't bother to go down the mountain if there is nothing important."
Jingxu was a little yearning when he heard it. It's really enviable to be so idle.
"Brother Chen, I came here today to ask for a favor."
Chen Xuanqing pinched his fingers to disperse the dark clouds in the sky and said, "What is it?"
Jingxu said, "It's like this. I took a mission in the Foreign Affairs Hall before, and the purpose was to deal with a ghost problem in the area."
"And this place where ghosts are troubled is in Qianyang City."
Qianyang City.
That's Chen Xuanqing's hometown.
"So, you want me to accompany you?"
Jingxu nodded, "That's right. I heard that the ghost problem is not serious, but there should be no evil ghosts. The suggestion given by the Foreign Affairs Hall is to let the foundation-building disciples deal with it."
"Junior brother, I accepted this task because the reward is not cheap."
"But I am worried that I can't handle it alone, so I want to ask you, Brother Chen, to go with me. After all, it is your hometown and you are more familiar with it."
"After the matter is done, 70% of the reward will go to you, Brother Chen, and I only need 30%."
Chen Xuanqing patted his shoulder, "Junior brother Jingsi, the reward is..."
Jingxu: "Yes Jingxu."
Chen Xuanqing: "Oh, Junior brother Jingxu, I don't want the reward for this mission, just go back to see my relatives."
Jingxu knew that Chen Xuanqing would most likely not want this reward.
After all, Brother Chen has always been so generous and considers others everywhere.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Chen!"
Chen Xuanqing: "Let's set off tomorrow. I have something to deal with today. I'll tell the old otaku about it."
Jingxu nodded, "Okay, I'll wait for you at the foot of the mountain tomorrow morning."
...
Jingxu left.
Chen Xuanqing came to the Qingtian Hall of Emei Peak, "Master, I'm going to go out of the sect for a few days to gain experience."
The voice of the old man with white eyebrows came from the hall, "Go, go, don't get into trouble, if anyone bullies you, report your master's name."
"No, don't report it."
"I'm afraid they will kick you a few more times."
Chen Xuanqing: "..."
The old man with white eyebrows has such a personality, Chen Xuanqing has gotten used to it.
He turned and went down the mountain.
He has lived on Emei Peak for so long, but he has only gone down the mountain a few times.
"You can fly after the foundation building period. Do you want to refine a magic weapon yourself, or ask the old man with white eyebrows for one?"
Chen Xuanqing's interest in alchemy and refining has gradually increased recently.
Because they all say that the magic weapon you refine may not be the strongest, but the strongest magic weapon must be refined by yourself.
Next time, you can fill up the talent for refining and alchemy.
He went down Emei Peak.
Chen Xuanqing went directly to Yuxian Tower.
The passing disciples bowed their heads and shouted when they saw Chen Xuanqing: "Hello, Senior Brother Xuanqing!"
"Second Senior Brother."
"Senior Brother Xuanqing!"
"Hello, Second Senior Brother!"
...
Chen Xuanqing nodded slightly, and then walked straight into the Jade Fairy Building.
The old blind man was still sitting in the Jade Fairy Building as usual, closing his eyes to rest.
"You have reached the eleventh level of Qi training, why haven't you built your foundation yet?"
The old blind man said with his eyes closed.
Chen Xuanqing smiled, "Everything should be pursued without regrets. Isn't it possible for me to build a foundation at the twelfth level of Qi training?"
The old blind man sneered, "The way to build a foundation is the simplest at the ninth level of Qi training, and the most difficult at the twelfth level of Qi training."
"Besides, you have a natural spiritual root, which is even more difficult."
"Forget it, it's up to you. Are the spirit stones not enough again?"
"Based on my understanding of the old man Baimei, he should have taken out all his family assets and given them to you. Didn't you use the spirit stones of the old man Baimei much?"
Chen Xuanqing smiled, "You found all this?"
"Master, you are very smart."
The old blind man shook his head and threw a storage bag to Chen Xuanqing, "Take it away, don't come to see me if you don't have anything to do."
