Chapter 330: Tongxuan, testing medicine

The opportunity has been given to Xueli, and whether she can seize it depends on her courage and decisiveness.

Xu Yuanchang brought the soft and listless Xueli down from the top of the mountain without any persuasion or analysis. There were only a few critical steps on the path of cultivation and one had to take them by oneself. He could not force Xueli to accept it.

Walking into the yard, Xu Yuanchang did not greet Xueli who was following him to come in. His figure disappeared among the blooming flowers and trees.

The snow grain poked its head out for a long time, and finally turned away dejectedly. It knew the rules and did not dare to act coquettishly.

I patrolled around Fucai Ridge until it was dark. It was getting increasingly boring with the silence everywhere. Today was surprisingly strange. I didn't meet any companions to talk to. Those guys stayed in their nests and didn't go out. The leader was nowhere to be seen either.

Climbing up a small hill covered with light grass, the snowflakes used their magic to manipulate the odd and even numbers of the stones.

It wanted to rely on God's will to decide whether or not to participate in Mr. Zeng's drug trial.

The young master meant well and had great confidence in Mr. Zeng.

It might be a trivial matter for Young Master Yu, but it is a matter of life and death for him. If he gets hurt by the food and ruins the foundation of his future practice, can he still ask Mr. Zeng to compensate him?

Mr. Zeng said in advance that "it shouldn't kill you," but there's no guarantee that you won't get hurt.

"Go, no go, go, no go... go."

"This doesn't count. Let's try again."

The snow grain played tricks on itself and overturned the destiny that only one stone was left. It gathered more stones and moved them by itself, muttering "go, no go". After five rounds in a row, two rounds showed "go" and three rounds showed "no go".

According to God's will, it doesn't have to go, but it can't be happy about it, as it always feels that its "God's will" is fake.

The next day, the day after... Every day it would take stones to test God's will. There had never been a one-sided situation in five games, which made it very confused and embarrassed. Even half a month later, it was still confused and didn't know whether to "go" or "not go".

God's will is unpredictable. Why would God make things difficult for such a tiny chill bug?
For half a month, no one was seen on the territory of Fucailing.

It seemed as if it had been abandoned by the whole world, patrolling the empty land alone every day.

The stone was tired of guessing and wanted to find a partner to discuss things with, but it was too difficult.

The snow grain circled around the courtyards and caves, staying in seclusion one after another. Seeing that the agreed time had arrived and it could not delay any longer, it climbed to the top of the highest mountain of Fucai Ridge with its bitter little fat face.

Looking back at the distance below the mountain, Xueli's heart was filled with tragic ups and downs. You heartless people may never see the silly and lovely ones again... Ah, bah, bah, the insects speak without restraint, good luck, don't talk nonsense and curse yourself.

After calming down, Xueli knocked on the gate three times with her head.

I wish Mr. Zeng couldn’t hear it.

"Come in."

Zeng Lao's emotionless and low voice came from the yard, and the gate opened silently.

Snow Grain gritted its teeth and crawled over the threshold, followed the path across the courtyard, climbed up the steps on the roof, and bowed and greeted Mr. Zeng who was reading in the main room. It did not dare to crawl into the main room.

"Not bad, you are quite courageous. No wonder Xu Xiaoyou recommended you to come and try the medicine."

Zeng Wanglou put down the book and looked at the little guy who was obviously afraid of the fat on his body shaking in circles without obvious fluctuations, but he still came. He didn't say anything more and threw a small bottle over.

Xueli took the small bottle. It remembered that the young master was helping it to get the errand job, so how come he ended up recommending it to try the medicine?
However, it did not dare to argue with Mr. Zeng, who was arrogant and had a bad memory.

"Drink the liquid medicine in the bottle, wait for a quarter of an hour, and if there are no adverse reactions, you can go home."

Zeng Wanglou gave the order calmly. He didn't know what the little guy was afraid of. He could make low-level potions with his eyes closed and there would be no problem. If there was any problem, he would be able to eliminate it on the spot.

How could he not give face to Xu Xiaoyou?

Several targeted medicinal materials were used deliberately, and the potion refined was not only a holy product, but also extremely rare.

Xueli hesitated for only a moment, removed the cork, and swallowed the medicine in the bottle in one gulp.

If you stick your head out, you will be in danger of being stabbed. If you hide your head, you will be in danger of being stabbed. So be brave and don't let people laugh at you.

After drinking it, Xueli felt nervous again. He couldn't even taste the medicine. He felt a chill spreading in his body. There was no sign of unbearable abdominal pain. After a while, the chill disappeared and a burst of heat surged up again.

After repeating this three times, Xueli realized that the effect of the medicine had worn off and it was intact, so it immediately felt relieved.

As for the fact that its snow-white skin was stained with a hint of light silver, it didn't care at all.

A quarter of an hour was up, and Zeng Wanglou, who was reading a book, waved to the outside.

Xueli quickly ran away, twisted his fat body after going down the mountain, and was excited about his manly performance.

"In half a month, I will go up the mountain to test the medicine again."

Zeng Wanglou's indifferent voice, full of inhumanity, floated down from the mountain like a bucket of cold water, which brought the snowflakes, which had been overjoyed and then turned to sorrow, back to their original dejected state. It was a little too early for them to be happy.

Liu Xianfeng, who was hiding in Xu Yuanchang's yard, saw Xueli's cowardly look and laughed so hard that she was shaking with joy.

She had told Yuanbao, Huabei and others not to go out for the next half month, so that the insect could face some difficult decisions alone. She would definitely not let Xueli waste this opportunity that the young master had helped her to fight for.

"Master, I didn't interfere with Xueli's decision. It was she who climbed up the mountain to take the medicine on her own."

"When Xueli counted the pebbles for the first time, it seemed as if there was suddenly one extra one."

Xu Yuanchang played with and stroked the exquisite silver magic glass mirror. He would offer sacrifices and nourish the treasures at any time, and expose the little tricks of a certain tree spirit to change the will of heaven. He lived in seclusion but was actually very observant.

"Oh, really? Snow Grain looks honest, but it can act like a scoundrel without blushing or getting nervous."

Liu Xianfeng openly framed Xueli and shouted, "I remember that I haven't taken care of the herbs planted in the back hills for a few days. I won't chat with you anymore. I'll go around for a while."

It disappeared in the blink of an eye. He is really too thin-skinned.

Xu Yuanchang put away the magic mirror, stood up with a smile, released two avatars, and walked leisurely into the secret room.

After half a month of adjustment, he has fully recovered and brought his spirit and state of mind to the best condition. A translucent, glittering Tongxuan stone appeared in his hand. With a casual pinch, the Tongxuan stone shattered into powder containing the mysterious power of heaven and earth.

"Puff", the colored powder is injected into the body.

Xu Yuanchang opened his mind and absorbed the subtle power of heaven and earth.

There were numerous and chaotic thoughts in his mind, but he remained calm and comprehended the flow of inspiration as if he was drifting with the tide.

There is no limit to the number of Tongxuan Stones that can be used, but if you want to achieve the "Tongxuan" state of mind, you need a certain amount of luck, and it is related to your own talent, merit, karma and other unclear things.

Xu Yuanchang specially looked through the relevant books he had collected and made some preparations.

Time passed slowly, and Xu Yuanchang suddenly entered a strange state of meditation. Green mist gushed out of his body, mixed with traces of light purple light. The secret room was filled with mysterious fluctuations that were in harmony with the heaven and earth.

On the top of a mountain a few miles away, Zeng Wanglou suddenly cast his gaze towards the garden courtyard at the foot of the mountain. He could sense something different and whispered, "Some people use a Tongxuan stone to enter the 'Tongxuan'. It's really frustrating to compare yourself with others."

He used three rare Tongxuan stones, but apart from enhancing the induction between heaven and man, he still had not yet touched the edge of the "Tongxuan" state of mind. Some things cannot be forced, otherwise they will lose their "indifference and peace".

Although he was envious, he stood up and walked towards the alchemy room in the backyard. Refining pills could eliminate some distracting thoughts.

Time passes day by day.

Every half a month, Xueli would reluctantly go to the top of the mountain and swallow various new medicines refined by Zeng Lao. Thanks to the blessings of the gods, it has been safe and sound for half a year and has not damaged its stomach or brain.

Its snow-white skin, dotted with silver spots, affects its elegant image.

But apart from life and death, Xueli doesn't care much about appearance.

His cultivation level improved a lot, his body gained weight, but there were no other changes.

Yuanbao, Jinchan, Huabei and Zhuifeng surrounded the strange snow grain. It was a rare occasion for them to get together, and they all talked about the lazily lying snow grain, which looked more and more different.

"Xue Li, do you feel any discomfort in your body?"

“What are the conditions for drug testing?”

"If I take too many pills, I won't turn into a monster, right?"

Zhuifeng even curiously stretched out his pig's trotters, trying to touch Xueli's fat, mottled belly.

Xueli moved her body and acted nonchalant: "What kind of reaction can there be? You don't believe in Master Zeng's high standards? I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you want to try the medicine, but Master Zeng may not accept it. You are all suspicious and insincere."

Zhuifeng seldom goes out and shows great curiosity about drug testing. He asks all kinds of questions and almost asks Xueli to pass on a message for him.

Yuanbao, Jinchan and Huabei were half-believing and half-doubting what their fat brother said.

After talking about this and that for more than half an hour, Xueli stretched lazily, turned over, and climbed to the top of the mountain. He said, "Let's talk when I come back. Today happens to be the day for drug testing."

However, a quarter of an hour later, Xueliang flew down from the mountain, shining brightly, and said, "Brothers, I am going to retreat. This medicine is strong enough today."

It was so surprised that it couldn't wait to fly back to its nest, coiled up and fell asleep.

The cold air filled the outside of the cave and ice crystals condensed.

Yuanbao, Jinchan, Huabei and Zhuifeng followed to the cave entrance. Testing the medicine seemed to be an opportunity, and Xueli benefited greatly from it.

The secret room where Xu Yuanchang was in seclusion was no longer visible. Only a ball of green mist was left slowly swirling and flickering. Faint illusions were slowly changing on the walls, and the aura in the secret room was no longer visible.

About a day later, Xu Yuanchang's sitting figure reappeared.

He immersed himself in the state of mind of "Tongxuan", triggering a mysterious resonance with the phantom glass mirror suspended in the space of spiritual consciousness. The phantom bones refined in his body were undergoing energy tempering, and unknowingly, he was comprehending the advanced illusion of "illusion of birth and destruction".

After years of accumulation and with the help of the magic mirror, he slowly found the edge of his own transformation between virtuality and reality.

The performance is in a small space, and the body appears and disappears several times. Every time the figure disappears, it is a progress.

On the top of the mountain, in the main room.

Zeng Wanglou stared at the yard at the foot of the mountain for a long time and could no longer sense any fluctuations. He was deeply moved. Being able to comprehend the "mysterious" for half a year, the benefits Xu Xiaoyou had gained were immeasurable.

He used a step-by-step approach to help the unpleasant bug, which was just a piece of cake.

Now that Xu Xiaoyou has spoken, he must make sure to do his duty.

It was a bit unexpected that the low-level medicine refined with the Nine Illusion Cauldron seemed to contain some unknown magical effects.

Zeng Wanglou took out a jade-colored pill. This was the top-grade "Pure and Tranquility Pill" he refined. There was no restriction on its grade and it could enhance tranquility and calm the mind, and experience the Taoist "silence". He casually threw the pill into his mouth.

After a moment, Zeng Wanglou, who was testing the effects of the medicine, opened his eyes.

The elixir refined by the Nine Illusion Cauldron was truly magical, allowing him to experience a different state of mental and physical tranquility.

With a calm expression, he took out a piece of Tongxuan Stone, crushed it casually and injected it into his body. The colorful light that surrounded it was slowly absorbed by him.

The entire yard was filled with black air and gray fog, isolating the mountain top from the outside world.

Time passes peacefully, but major events occur frequently in the dark world.

In Zhenbei City, deep underground in a courtyard, Zhu Zongshan burned incense and cast a spell to invite the ancestor to meet him.

Chang Wuhui's deep voice came from the rolling yin energy: "I haven't seen you for nearly three years. Your soldier soul has improved significantly. Not bad."

In order to avoid trouble, they no longer meet as frequently as before, and only meet once every three or two years. If there is an emergency, they can make an appointment at any time.

Zhu Zongshan explained that he had fought several battles and obtained the forgiveness of Taoist Master Xu. He took out a black bag and said, "Zongshan has made a small contribution this time and was rewarded with two Tongxuan stones and a batch of natural treasures. I specially presented them to the ancestor for disturbing his meditation."

"Oh, Tongxuan Stone, what a good thing."

The Yin Qi transformed into a vague figure, stretched out his hand to take the bag, took out two translucent treasures, looked at them carefully for a moment, and laughed: "Zongshan is thoughtful, I accept your kindness."

Pick out a few useful natural treasures and return the rest to Zhu Zongshan.

He felt deeply moved that the little guy could finally be of great use.

You know, even in the ghost realm, Tongxuan Stone is a very valuable and scarce treasure, and it will be of great use to him.

"You mean that during the outing half a year ago, young Xu and old Zeng monopolized 30% of the benefits of Baoshan?"

Chang Wuhui habitually rubbed his hands as he walked, and said thoughtfully: "It is inconvenient for you to go out to visit friends now. You can send a message to Xu kid and ask him to come to Zhenbei City and give him my handwritten letter. That kid must have got a lot of Tongxuan stones. I will use treasures to exchange a few of them with him, and then ask him to tell old man Zeng that he must share a few of them."

Zhu Zongshan replied: "I heard a few days ago that Taoist Master Xu has been in seclusion for half a year. The timing is not good."

"After being in seclusion for half a year... maybe that kid used the Tongxuan Stone and gained the power of 'Tongxuan'?"

Chang Wuhui speculated and said, "You should pay attention to the news from Xu Xiaozi and wait for him to come out of seclusion and pass on the message. There is no need to rush for one or two years. When the time comes, I will meet with both of them. There are some things that I want to ask them in person."

He suddenly thought of the Nine Illusion Cauldron.

With old man Zeng's alchemy skills and the many rare materials he has collected, if he can convince Xu Yuanchang to lend the Nine Illusion Cauldron, it will be of great benefit to their circle of gods, ghosts, and cultivators.

Otherwise, it would be a waste to place the Nine Illusion Cauldron underground.

Zhu Zongshan agreed and told the old ancestor about the major events that had happened in the dark world in recent days.

An old house where a treasure.
