Chapter 373: The Ancestor Comes Out of Seclusion
The Hidden Soul Fruit!
It doesn't look amazing, it's just a red fruit that looks like hawthorn, but it has the effect of storing divine thoughts and warming the soul. The effect of the Hidden Soul Fruit may not be very good for ordinary cultivators. After all, even Jindan strongmen rarely use divine thoughts and souls to fight against enemies, and the possibility of the soul being injured is lower. In addition, the Hidden Soul Fruit focuses more on storing the soul, and the healing effect on the soul is secondary, which makes it seem useless.
But for Xiao Mian, the Hidden Soul Fruit is something that can only be encountered but not sought!
The method practiced by Xiao Mian's spiritual cultivation lineage is the "Soul Separation Method". When he first practiced the "Soul Separation Method", Xiao Mian used the three strange flowers contributed by Yuanxu Zhenren to store his three souls, and then used the three souls to control the seven souls. This is how he tried to avoid the confusion of the soul when practicing the "Soul Separation Method".
However, Xiao Mian was only a cultivator in the Qi training stage at that time, and his soul was not strong. Asparagus, Rehmannia and Ginseng could accommodate Xiao Mian's three souls. Now Xiao Mian has successfully built his foundation and is even facing the small heavenly tribulation of forming a pill. His soul strength has become much stronger after practicing the "Soul Separation Method". The three strange flowers before could not accommodate more souls because of their low grade.
This is one of the restrictions that directly restrict Xiao Mian's improvement in the cultivation of the soul!
Imagine that the volume of a teacup is only as big as a fist. How easy is it to pour a whole pot of tea as big as a ball into it?
It is also very simple to break this bottleneck, that is, to find a spiritual material of higher grade than the three strange flowers used before, and to refine it into the body in the same way.
It just so happens that this hidden god fruit is a spiritual material that Guitou once mentioned to Xiao Mian!
It is really a case of searching for iron shoes without any effort.
It seems that I still need to do more good deeds and accumulate more virtues in the future!
With such emotion, Xiao Mian pointed to the soul-sealing box containing the Hidden God Flower. Seeing Bai Caiwei breathe a sigh of relief, Xiao Mian was also relieved.
Obviously, this Hidden God Flower is not what Bai Caiwei or Li Qingping needs.
As for the remaining three spiritual herbs, Xiao Mian didn't care. Under Bai Caiwei's repeated insistence, Xiao Mian chose another ice-attributed Ice Soul Orchid. The reason for choosing this flashy Ice Soul Orchid is that, on the one hand, considering that Li Qingping has a dual-attribute spiritual root of water and wood, and the remaining two spiritual herbs happen to be one water and one wood, Xiao Mian naturally can't take away someone's love. At the same time, Xiao Mian also wanted to give the Ice Soul Orchid to Xiao Chuqing.
As for the four-leaf green duckweed capsule, it is a storage magic weapon of a high grade, and it is also a relic of Li Mudao. It is of great significance to Bai Caiwei and Li Qingping. In addition, the four-leaf green duckweed capsule has a female appearance, so Xiao Mian simply took the initiative to give it to Li Qingping.
Seeing Xiao Mian so knowledgeable, even Granny Hua smiled.
"I and Senior Li are close friends, and he has helped me a lot. I happen to have some cultivation resources that I don't use on a daily basis, so I'm offering them to you. If Miss Qingping likes them, you can take them all!" As he spoke, Xiao Mian took out a storage bag and handed it to Bai Caiwei respectfully. Bai Caiwei didn't care at all, thinking that Xiao Mian was just being embarrassed, thinking that a cultivator in the foundation building stage could have any good things? But when she opened it, even Bai Caiwei's face moved slightly, and she exclaimed in a low voice: "Good boy! Did you rob the secret library of some force?"
"Aunt Bai, you are embarrassing me!"
"I'm afraid all these things of yours are hard-earned, right?" Seeing Xiao Mian's embarrassed face, Bai Caiwei became more certain of her thoughts. The storage bag that Xiao Mian took out was enough for Li Qingping to cultivate to the Golden Core Realm. Although she didn't know why Xiao Mian took out this storage bag, Li Qingping really needed it. But Bai Caiwei left the Bai family with nothing, so how could she accept Xiao Mian's things for nothing? After thinking about it, Bai Caiwei took out a jade slip and handed it to Xiao Mian. After Xiao Mian took it, he was not polite. He put it to his forehead and looked at it, and then he also exclaimed: "This is..."
"I, Bai Caiwei, have been making poisons all my life. What I am good at is the way to make and detoxify poisons. This is my lifelong experience in poisons. I am giving it to you now. I hope you can find a suitable successor for me, and I also hope you can learn some ways to avoid and detoxify poisons, so that you can have more skills."
"Thank you Aunt Bai for your generous gift, Xiao Mian thanks you!"
After that, Bai Caiwei and others left casually, leaving Xiao Mian alone in the quiet room to ponder.
Not long after, Xiao Mian left the villa and found Dan Qiusheng. Under Dan Qiusheng's protection, the two went down Mount Daizong and came to the courtyard of the old ancestor Yuchu.
It was not that Xiao Mian mobilized a large army, but the situation in Wanzong City had changed suddenly. The Bai family, Wan Tianfeng, Xi Zongjun, Qi Zhizhai and the God of Killing alone had a handful of Yuanying ancestors who were looking forward to Xiao Mian's death, not to mention other Jindan masters.
After the approval of the old ancestor Yu Chu, Xiao Mian found a sixth-level Yunshen grass in the secret library of the Nong family as he wished, but he only found this one.
Xiao Mian didn't care, as he was satisfied that he didn't return empty-handed.
Besides, there were very few unconventional spiritual herbs like Cangshen Fruit and Yunshen Grass, and those that could be preserved were even rarer.
After that, Xiao Mian had been practicing in the Huatian Peak Villa. Time passed and the New Year was approaching.
On this day, the winter thunder roared, and the sky over the entire Daizong Mountain was covered with dark clouds.
Xiao Mian was awakened from his meditation by Kong Yuanren, and then followed Kong Yuanren to the Jade Emperor Peak. Looking around, only the scholar and Dan Qiu were present on the Jade Emperor Peak. It was Kong Yuanren who led Xiao Mian here and then turned around and left without stopping.
Seeing the scholar and Dan Qiusheng looking at the sky solemnly, Xiao Mian also looked up, but was shocked to see thunder and lightning in the sky. Just when Xiao Mian was confused, all the dark clouds and lightning in the sky disappeared, and the sky became clear.
"Why……"
"pity!"
In unison, the scholar and Dan Qiusheng shook their heads and sighed.
Although Xiao Mian was suspicious, the atmosphere at the scene was solemn and he did not dare to ask. However, Xiao Mian vaguely guessed something.
Not a moment later, a closed stone rock near Jade Emperor Peak suddenly opened, and a man walked out. He had white beard, white hair, white clothes and white robe.
"Huairen respectfully welcomes Brother Haonan out of confinement!"
"Junior Five Elements Sect Danqiu, welcome Senior Bai out of seclusion!"
Facing the old man in white, the scholar and Dan Qiusheng bowed and saluted. Xiao Mian was stunned for a moment and then followed suit, because the old man was obviously Bai Haonan, the ancestor of the Bai family!
I don’t know what these two old foxes are thinking. Bai Haonan is out of seclusion. Why did he let me, an outsider, wait here? Isn’t this what Bai Jintang should do?
"Huairen, you don't have to be polite!" He stretched out his hand to support the scholar. Bai Haonan looked at Dan Qiusheng carefully, and then smiled and said, "Congratulations on the successor of Taoist fellow Wuling!"
"Senior Bai is so complimentary!"
Dan Qiusheng could pretend to be cool in front of Bai Yushan, but in front of Bai Haonan, not only Dan Qiusheng but also the scholar had to bow and salute.
Only then did Xiao Mian raise his head, and his heart skipped a beat when he saw Bai Haonan's probing eyes sweeping over him.
However, Bai Haonan didn't ask further questions, and the scholar and Dan Qiusheng didn't mention it either, as if Xiao Mian was just a ball of air.
Xiao Mian was naturally happy to be like this. After all, there was a deep grudge between him and the Bai family.
"I just saw the calamity cloud rolling in. I thought that Brother Haonan would definitely bring about the calamity this time and advance smoothly!" Xiao Mian was stunned by the scholar's words, and had a sudden thought in his heart: Could it be that after entering the Nascent Soul realm, Does every small realm breakthrough require a tribulation?
If this is true, then Xiao Mian will have great fun.
According to what Wan Zongsheng said that day, for fellow cultivator Xiao Mian of the Third Lineage, the Heavenly Tribulation would be three times more powerful, and the days to come would probably be thunderous.
Before Xiao Mian could think about it for a moment, Bai Haonan had already explained: "Actually, I had summoned the Heavenly Tribulation just now, but it was temporarily cut off by me!"
"How could it be..., after all, small heavenly tribulations in the Nascent Soul realm are different from major heavenly tribulations. As long as the realm is reached and a heavenly tribulation can be summoned, nine out of ten times it can be passed safely. Since Brother Haonan has already summoned After the catastrophe, why bother..."
"You also said that it is nine out of ten, isn't there still a one to two percent chance of failure? Now is a sensitive period, and spiritual warfare may break out at any time. Although I, Bai Haonan, am only an intermediate Nascent Soul monk, in Nanyue Prefecture It can be regarded as a fighting force, and it is a taboo for monks to advance before the battle, not to mention that I am not a person, but the ancestor of the Bai family! "
Bai Haonan's words were shrouded in confusion, but the scholar's eyes lit up when he heard them.
At that moment, the scholar told all about the events that happened in Wanzong City a few days ago. Bai Haonan sometimes frowned, sometimes raised his face, and finally just nodded indifferently.
"You did a great job!"
Immediately afterwards, the scholar took out something and handed it to Bai Haonan.
Bai Haonan was stunned when he saw that thing, and Xiao Mian was also stunned when he saw that thing, just because that thing was the triple golden crown that once wore on Bai Jintang's hair!
