Li Yan stared directly at the sky. He had just stopped practicing not long ago. He looked at the clouds rolling in the sky and the geese flying high.
Then he felt the gentle breeze occasionally blowing from the lake, and the fresh smell of the surrounding grass lingered on the tip of his nose. The pure land emerged in his heart, and he remembered a long, long time ago...
It seemed like a dream, a dream that was too far away. When I was a teenager, I would often go to the hillside outside the village with my fourth sister.
When he was tired from work, he would lie on the grass slope with grass in his mouth, looking at the sky, imagining that in the future he would become like Uncle Guo Xin, the most powerful hunter in the village...
But the fourth sister will be not far away, humming a nice slang ditty, still like a cheerful bird, constantly harvesting some green grass!
Then, from time to time, some grass will be bundled with quick hands and feet. At noon or evening, Li Yan will be responsible for picking the grass home.
At that time, along the way, the fourth sister would jump up and down happily, occasionally waving the sickle in her hand, and the two pigtails on her head would shake up and down, and the world would reverberate with her silver bell-like laughter...
Li Yan looked at the sky. In the blue sky, Li Yan saw several vaguely familiar faces, but those faces had begun to blur.
Even though he was a cultivator, some memories began to become unclear, because there were some people or things that he deliberately stopped thinking about for a period of time.
"Fourth sister, third brother, father... mother..."
Li Yan Although there was still grass in his mouth, his eyes gradually began to blur. He had not felt so relaxed for a long time.
Therefore, he would probably not spend very long practicing here, but he liked to watch and feel the changes in his state of mind.
Being plotted by others all day long, or plotting to kill others, seemed to be something he often considered now. Life was no longer so awe-inspiring in his eyes.
The memories that had kept him simple had been buried in his heart long after he finally decided that he no longer planned to go to the small mountain village.
Recalling those past events would only make him feel regretful. He himself had never thought that the trip to the mountain village at Foundation Establishment would become his last warmth!
A trip to a mountain village has since become a swan song of yin and yang. This is a huge blow to Li Yan after he returns from the devil world...
Li Yan maintained this posture, lying in the green grass on the slope. To outsiders, he looked rare and leisurely.
But no one can see it. His eyes are staring at the sky, which is already blurry...
After an unknown amount of time, Li Yan slowly sat up, spit out the grass in his mouth, and then walked towards the lake below.
He splashed a handful of water on his face, and the coolness immediately refreshed Li Yan. This was something he would often do after encountering a mountain stream when Great Green Mountain was hunting.
That would immediately wipe away the fatigue caused by chasing prey, and his whole body would once again return to the domineering appearance of a young man.
Li Yan stood up, wiped his face, and shook off the water on his hands. When he looked back towards the hillside, he saw Bai Rou standing there quietly.
The woman is as light as water, her white skirt is fluttering gently, and she is looking at herself with a smile.
"Junior brother, let's go!"
Bai Rou's voice came from above. Her voice was not loud, but it was floating in the morning breeze...
Bai Rou While saying this, she scanned the surroundings with her beautiful eyes. She knew she was leaving here. She also had too many things to do.
Today's Li Yan has actually reached Void Refinement Realm. If she wants to improve quickly, of course she must use the resources of the Wangliang Sect.
Li Yan just flashed, and the next moment he was in front of Bai Rou, and then stood side by side with Bai Rou, and then looked at the lake in front of him.
Feeling the breath of the man next to her, Bai Rou's heart beat faster again, but the expression on her face had not changed much.
"This is a good place to cultivate your mind. Let's rearrange the teleportation array to see if we can keep it..."
Li Yan also smiled and nodded. It was time to leave, but before he finished speaking, he stopped abruptly. He turned back slightly, and Bai Rou also turned around.
At this time, in front of the gate of the fenced compound on the slope, a little head was quietly poking out. When he noticed the two people on the grass down the slope and suddenly turned his head to look over, the little head suddenly retracted.
Li Yan After seeing it, and thinking about what he wanted to say just now, his eyes flickered several times in succession, and then his voice came out.
"Little guy, come here, please?"
His voice was not very high, but it was extremely clear. Bai Rou didn't make a sound. Although she didn't know what Li Yan was going to do?
But it was obvious that she didn't want to kill it. She knew that the other party also understood what the two of them had just said. Just after Li Yan finished speaking, the little head that had shrunk into the door was revealed again.
It was a fiery red fox head, and its eyes were clearly full of hesitation, but in the next moment, its entire figure flashed out.
Then, it cautiously walked towards the two people down the hillside. At this time, the injuries on the back and neck of the red fox had fully recovered.
It's just that the newly grown fiery red hair is lower than the rest of the body and still looks very sparse.
Under that elixir, its injuries had long since healed. At the same time, it was strange that it had not felt any hunger for such a long time.
So these days, it would occasionally go out of the courtyard, but the farthest was only near the lake. It could feel that there was a presence deep in the vast forest that made it fearful.
But this pair of men and women sit on the grass slope in front of the lake every day for a long, long time, so it will look at the backs of the two people from a distance.
It seems that as long as these two people exist, the beings in the forest that scare him will not dare to approach here at all, and this is indeed the case.
Those two people seem to contain boundless power. With just a wave of their hands, the other person can easily kill him...
Seeing the little fiery red fox getting closer and closer, Li Yan didn't urge it.
Instead, it wasn't until the other party stopped about a few feet away from them and looked at the two of them in awe that Li Yan nodded.
"Well, little guy, you took advantage of the opportunity. Now that you have some intelligence and can sense whether we have murderous intentions and are still cowering, even if I won't kill you.
But later on, you will be expelled from this courtyard and put into the forests ahead.
As for your life and death later, it all depends on your luck. We are here only because of you. Saving your life is actually worth it. "
Li Yan still said softly, he had just planned to cover up the courtyard behind him, so naturally he could not allow this beast to exist in it.
Bai Rou After hearing Li Yan's words, her beautiful eyes couldn't help but light up. She completely understood what Li Yan meant.
The little flaming red fox was confused, but he understood the words to put it into the forest. He couldn't help but tuck his tail, and the flaming red hair all over his body instantly stuck to his body.
Suddenly, an impulse arose in its heart to escape back to the fenced compound immediately, but if the other person spoke in front of it, it felt that it would be of some benefit to itself.
Still suppressing the panic in his heart, he let out a whimper in his mouth, lowered his head, and when his ears were pressed down, he half raised his face and looked forward in a flattering manner.
"If you can come here, then I will give you an opportunity. As for the step you can reach in the end, that is your own destiny.
I will check your spiritual roots first, and then open up your spiritual wisdom. You will understand all this later! "
Li Yan While speaking, he gently stretched out a finger and tapped it towards the fiery red fox.
In the frightened eyes of the red fox, it saw a flash of green light, which quickly enlarged in its eyes, and then... it completely lost consciousness!
When the little fiery red fox woke up, it just turned its eyes slightly and found itself lying in a familiar courtyard.
In front of it, there were two people looking at it. The moment it saw their faces clearly, it suddenly became excited and jumped up.
The moment it woke up, it clearly remembered the man before, and suddenly stretched out a finger to itself, and there was a flash of green light on the fingertip, and then it was here.
"What did he do to me?"
This clear reaction immediately appeared in the little flaming fox's consciousness.
"What? Can you feel the difference in consciousness?"
Just as the red fox subconsciously turned over and jumped up, the man's voice came again.
At the same time, another voice suddenly intertwined in the little flaming fox's consciousness.
"Next, I will say some words. You should remember them carefully. The more you remember, the better it will be for you, so that you can have more ability to save your own life!"
But this voice is the same as the voice heard in the ears now, those words that were still unclear and somewhat unclear before.
At this moment, after the voice entered its mind, it understood a lot in an instant, so the little fox's body froze, and then fell heavily to the ground.
But it seemed completely unaware of the pain, staring blankly at the two people standing in front of it, while Li Yan and Bai Rou were also watching its actions.
They were also judging each other's intelligence level, but after a few breaths, a faint smile appeared in Bai Rou's eyes.
The dull look on the little fiery red fox's face faded, but suddenly he bent his two forelimbs and knelt down towards her and Li Yan.
At the same time, it made a "squeaking" sound in its mouth, but there was obviously excitement in its eyes.
"It seems that you have understood what will happen next, but I have something to say. You can accept this gift, but it is just an opportunity for you. You and I will not have any inheritance. You must keep this in mind.
There is a set of Demon Cultivator cultivation methods. I will put it into your sea of consciousness. There will be some Pill here later, but they will be imprisoned together with this courtyard.
With your current weak strength, Pill is given to you for safekeeping. Whether you return to the valley where you came from or stay here, you cannot protect these Pill.
Outside the valley, it is estimated that since the goshawk has discovered you and is not sure to kill you, it will often patrol the sky.
But I can't help you kill it. You should want to kill it yourself, which will make you feel more enlightened in the future.
You can't understand this yet, but just do it according to your heart.
There are too many more powerful beasts here. After we leave, just the smell emitted by Pill will make them crazily try to break into this place, which is enough to kill you thousands of times.
Therefore, before you succeed in cultivation, you must be sealed here together with Pill, so that the breath of Pill cannot spread out. You can also practice through these Pill.
When your cultivation reaches the second level, you will be able to freely enter and leave here through the method I leave in your sea of consciousness. Do you understand? "
Li Yan said softly. After hearing this, the little fiery red fox nodded repeatedly.
Li Yan Through this period of time, I can see that Senior Sister Bai likes this place very much, and the environment here has actually cleansed Li Yan's mood.
This has eliminated most of the murderous intentions Li Yan had accumulated in his heart over the years, making his thoughts clearer.
Since it was difficult for outsiders to enter here, he simply sealed it and covered up the teleportation arrays at both ends.
But when he saw the little fox, he thought that since this Little Beast also had intelligence, it was the other party who discovered this place.
Then if it can grow up, it can protect this place. However, if the little fox is killed by someone one day, there will be nothing to say.
As for this place, it doesn't matter whether he or Senior Sister Bai will come here in the future. It's like the secret realm of Uncle Qian Zhong in the lower realm.
Even if he doesn't use it, he doesn't want to leave it to others to enter at will. This is the selfish idea of many monks.
Although Li Yan is not Demon Cultivator, he has read too many classics and exercises. Of course he remembers many of the more common Demon Cultivator exercises.
It's just that after he explored the little fox's spiritual root before, he found that although he also had a fox clan skill in his hand, it was a special ice skill and was not suitable for him.
The little fox's spiritual root attribute was beyond Li Yan's expectation. It turned out to be a very rare Heavenly Spirit Root, belonging to the dual system of fire and gold Heavenly Spirit Root.
This made Li Yan and Bai Rou very surprised after repeated confirmation, but neither of them had any intention of accepting Demon Cultivator as their disciple.
Li Yan That's because the sect is too special, and he himself doesn't know how to establish a sect, so he naturally doesn't want to accept disciples other than the Five Elements.
But Bai Rou feels that her strength is too low and she needs more time to practice. Currently, Li Zhaoyan is enough.
Li Yan After thinking about it for a while, he chose a technique that was particularly good at Yang Huo Lie and belonged to the "Eight Paths Wolf" clan.
"After you succeed in cultivation, you are not allowed to kill all the wild beasts here. You only need to take good care of this place. This is also my last request to you.
Otherwise, many resources here will slowly disappear in the future. You can also make them Demon Beast, but you need to control their level growth..."
Li Yan once again gave the little fox an order, and the fiery red fox kept nodding its little head...
A few days later, Li Yan and Bai Rou stepped on the "Cloud Piercer" again and flew away quickly in the air.
In the past few days, the two of them have rearranged the formations at both ends. Now, even if another monk enters the crevices of the valley and mountains, it will be difficult to find the "Broken Star Formation" again.
Regarding this place, both Li Yan and Bai Rou know that they are just passers-by and may never come again in the future.
But what cultivators pay attention to is to act as they please. If you do whatever comes to you, then just do it.
Runyufang City, this is a large-scale city. The city is controlled by a second-rate sect and covers an area of more than a hundred miles.
With the scale of a city like this, within a radius of 100,000 miles, it can be considered a very large city.
Guan Junyi and Guan Man are currently standing in front of their temporary stall. There are some puppets placed on it. The big ones are only the size of an adult's hand, and the small ones are only the size of a finger.
The shape of the puppets on the stall did not look very exquisite, and there were only a dozen or so in number.
Guan Junyi and Guan Man are both only fifteen or sixteen years old, and their cultivation levels are already Foundation Establishment Late Stage and Foundation Establishment Middle Stage.
Guan Junyi is very fair and fair. Although he is not handsome, he has pretty features, slender limbs, and very smart eyes. He looks very smart at first glance.
And Guan Man has a face as fair as a melon seed, already tall and slim, and wears an emerald green dress, which makes her full of youthful atmosphere.
There is no shortage of small stalls like theirs in every market, and there are often many people setting up stalls.
