A small casual cultivator!

Chapter 868 Retreat and Practice

The Tengluo Clan is a weaker second-class race, far inferior to the Rock Spider Clan. Their strength is very weak. If it were not for the support of the Haoyue Sect, they could be easily wiped out by the Longniu Clan like the Tieque Clan.

"Senior Brother Lu, have you met the Great Elder?" Lin Xi asked.

"After I came out of retreat, I was walking around the city and met him. The Great Elder also said that I had made great contributions on the battlefield this time, and gave me a chance to enter the Wuchen Palace, so that I can be protected from the erosion of the inner demon when I strive for the Nascent Soul."

"It seems that the elders have accepted you. The Buddha's fat in the Dustless Hall is prepared for those disciples with heavy inner demons. There is not much left now. No one has been qualified to enter for more than a hundred years. The elders are really thoughtful."

Lin Xi said in surprise.

"Now I just need to improve my cultivation to the peak of the Golden Core, rebuild the Qinglian Temple, and learn the technique of Condensing Infant, then I can start to impact the Nascent Soul realm."

Without the obstacle of inner demons, the next step will be much smoother.

"There are still so many things to prepare. It will take a lot of time, especially to practice the magic skills again." Lin Xi's expression became serious, and he continued: "Brother Lu, I will ask the elders for a treasure that can temporarily improve your understanding for you to use. My contribution has not been used yet. The sooner you break through the realm, the more hope you will have to break through to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul."

The cultivation of the Spiritual Refining Technique is the most difficult, and now I have to start practicing another one all over again, which takes too much time.

Moreover, Qinglian Temple's technique is a profound-level spiritual practice that can support cultivation to the late Nascent Soul stage. Its quality is totally incomparable to that of Qingyun Baihe Temple. A small achievement is even stronger than the perfection of Qingyun Baihe Temple.

Lu Luan shook his head and said, "I have used such treasures too many times before. If I use them again, I will not be able to bear the backlash. But you don't have to worry. Qinglian Temple is a legacy mark, which is very convenient for cultivation. Moreover, after integrating the dragon bloodline, my understanding has also undergone earth-shaking changes. In a few years, I will be able to cultivate Qinglian Temple to a small level of success."

Fortunately, he had fused the blood of the dragon, otherwise with his previous understanding, it would be questionable whether he could understand the Qinglian Temple. Even with the mark of inheritance, it would take him more than a hundred years to achieve a small level of success.

"That's good. Are you planning to go into seclusion now?"

Lin Xi looked at him.

"Let me accompany you for a while."

Lu Luan looked at the pretty face on his lap and said with a smile.

"That's good. I'm almost going to break through to the late Jindan stage."

Lin Xi slowly closed his eyes.

The water surface was like a mirror. A leaf floated down and landed in the pond, causing ripples. In the reflection in the water, the pavilion was empty.

three days later.

Haoyue City, on the street.

Lu Luan and Lin Xi walked leisurely.

"boom!"

Suddenly, he stopped, looked up into the sky, and felt a dark wave.

The fluctuation was so weak that no one around noticed it, including Lin Xi. If he was not sensitive to space, he would not have noticed it.

"Brother Lu, what's wrong?"

Seeing him stop, Lin Xi asked in confusion.

"There's something strange in the air."

Lu Luan murmured.

At this moment, in Haoyue City, dozens of figures stood outside the palace, looking at the sky with serious eyes.

"The demon tribe has begun to take action."

A woman said with a grim expression. In her sight, a seven-hundred-foot-tall black magic tower appeared in the distance above Haoyue City.

"hateful."

The old man next to him clenched his fists unwillingly.

Now most of the elders are still in seclusion to recuperate, and can only watch helplessly, completely unable to stop it.

The demon clan's blockade has begun.

"Dear elders and disciples, from now on, do not leave the Immortal City even half a step."

A wave of spiritual energy reverberated throughout the entire Haoyue City.

After receiving this news, the monks in the city suddenly became agitated.

"It seems that the demon tribe has begun to arrange blockade measures."

Lu Luan said in surprise.

"It's so fast." Lin Xi's eyes narrowed.

"Now as soon as we leave Haoyue City we will be noticed by the demons." Lu Luan understood that their situation would become more difficult in the future. He did not expect the demons to take action so quickly. Looking at Lin Xi, he secretly felt lucky that he had made the right choice and was glad that he did not leave.

"fine."

Lin Xi held his hand, and her brows relaxed. There was nothing to be afraid of.

"Ah."

Lu Luan smiled and nodded.

……

Five days later.

night.

In the retreat room, Lu Luan sat cross-legged.

"let's start."

After muttering, his mind moved, and the five elements treasures that had not been absorbed before appeared around him.

After taking a breath, he slowly closed his eyes, and the five elements of spirit in his body were activated. The five elements of essence in the treasures around him gathered into a torrent and rushed towards him.

Although he is already in the late Jindan stage, he is still a little distance away from the peak of the late stage.

Having these things around is enough.

"I have to work harder, too."

Outside in the yard, Lin Xi stood under the moon and looked at him, muttering silently in his heart.

She has reached the peak of the middle stage of the Golden Core.

Compared to Lu Luan, she has a great advantage in spiritual cultivation techniques. Her Seven Emotions Contemplation has now reached perfection. As long as she reaches the peak of the late Golden Core stage, she will be able to reach the Nascent Soul stage without any obstacles and without much preparation.

Despite this, there is no time to delay her cultivation. She is only one or two years younger than Lu Luan, so she has to hurry up and make a breakthrough.

After staring for a long time, she turned and walked away.

In the room, Lu Luan did not move.

Two months later.

There was nothing around.

"Finally reached the peak of the Golden Core."

Lu Luan opened his eyes. In two months, he successfully improved his cultivation to the peak of the late Jindan stage, the limit of the Jindan realm. His physical strength increased by two more dragons and reached the peak.

"I have to start practicing Qinglian Guan."

After a short rest, he closed his eyes again and concentrated on observing the mark of inheritance in the Purple Mansion.

As the soul touched it, the mark instantly burst into light with great intensity.

A stream of information flowed out from it, and at the same time there was a melodious voice chanting softly inside. Upon careful listening, it was all the mysteries of Qinglian Temple.

This feeling is like wandering in the memories of the predecessors who left this mark of inheritance. Practicing in this way, as if you are personally experiencing it, will make your practice twice as effective with half the effort.

At this moment, Lu Luan put his whole body and mind into it. He was concentrating and not trying to feel anything outside of his body. He forgot about time and was completely immersed in the mark of inheritance.

After experiencing the wonders of Qinglian Temple, he visualized the Qinglian in his memory.

At this moment, there is an extra seed in the fire of the soul. Bathed in rain and dew, the seed germinates, sprouts, and takes root.

A young lotus grows slowly, and the spiritual power around it is its nourishment.

Fairyland.

In a simple inn in a remote mortal town.

"Click."

In the corner of the inn, a middle-aged man was drinking tea. Suddenly, his expression froze and the teacup in his hand was crushed.

Then he said in confusion: "Strange, how come there is a cause and effect that is entangled with me out of nowhere."

He pinched his fingers and breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, it's not my fault."

"Sir, is the tea in our shop not good?"

A servant heard the noise and ran over to greet him.

The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "The tea is very good, but the feng shui of your shop is bad. I bumped into something dirty when I first came in."
