The Immortal Way is Fierce

Chapter 240 Looking from afar
"Return to spirit..."

Seeing Bai Bugui's appearance, Zhang Jingyuan helplessly stretched out his hand in front of Bai Bugui and waved his hand.

He naturally knew how lethal his current appearance was, but he never expected that even Bai Bugui could fall into this trap.

But it goes without saying that the current Bai Buhui is not the Buhui Dao Lord from his previous life who experienced all kinds of disasters.

Even the famous Master Buhui, who was called the first person under Yuanying and the invincible golden elixir, whom he met for the first time in his previous life, was far away from him.

At this moment, Bai Buhui is actually not much different from those ordinary girls in their mid-20s. At most, she just wakes up later than those people.

But at heart, she is still a young woman.

"Uh……"

Bai Buhui didn't say a word, but the blush on his face was as intense as a peach blossom in full bloom. The peach blossoms are so delicate and delicate, and the pink petals shine with a delicate luster in the sun, making people enchanted.

Because at this moment, she was not only intoxicated by Zhang Jingyuan's appearance and temperament, but she even couldn't help but think of the words her master's wife and Zhao's mother said to her.

Deep down in her heart, she did not reject the words they said, but now she was surprised to find that she suddenly had some expectations for the descriptions in those words.

Biting the tip of his tongue, forcing himself to calm down, Bai Buhui said with some difficulty, "I think it's better for you to cover up."

Although it was a bit strange that Bai Buhui was in such a state at this time, when Zhang Jingyuan heard this, he immediately used the Breath Condensation Technique, and his whole body instantly became introverted and became much more normal.

Bai Buhui took a long breath and suddenly felt much more relaxed, but his eyes were still evasive and he didn't look at Zhang Jingyuan.

There was no way, Zhang Jingyuan's appearance just now was really too lethal to the female monk. Even though Zhang Jingyuan had returned to normal now, she could not help but think of Zhang Jingyuan's appearance just now in her mind.

"You have now become a monk in the middle stage of foundation building. What do you plan to do?"

Afraid that he couldn't help but continue to think wildly, Bai Buhui deliberately changed the topic.

"Continue to practice, at least until the golden elixir stage."

With a long sigh, Zhang Jingyuan said in a deep voice.

"Golden elixir period? Don't you think about it, go out to practice, do tasks or something? During the Qi refining period, you can still retreat frequently, but after the foundation period, if you continue to retreat like this, it will hinder your practice. It's better. Enter this rolling mortal world and refine your Taoist heart."

Unexpectedly, Zhang Jingyuan still made such a choice. Bai Buhui couldn't help but glance at Zhang Jingyuan and said.

But the next moment, she quickly lowered her head again, not daring to look at Zhang Jingyuan's face.

She now suddenly discovered that compared to her, Zhang Jingyuan was a serious cultivator lunatic.

Almost since he entered Longxiang Taoist Temple, he has been practicing in seclusion. Except for a few activities where he had to leave seclusion, Zhang Jingyuan could stay in the training room, just stay in the training room.

He didn't even attend the classes, which was his duty as a Taoist disciple, let alone exchange the credits for any exercises.

Sometimes she couldn't help but wonder why Zhang Jingyuan joined Longxiang Taoist Temple. It couldn't be for Longxiang Taoist Temple to have more spiritual power and to exchange credits for spiritual stones, right?

Although these words are indeed shocking and unimaginable, the problem is exactly what Zhang Jingyuan showed.

Apart from these two things, she really couldn't think of anything else that Longxiang Taoist Academy could be of use to Zhang Jingyuan.

Although Zhang Jingyuan is nominally a disciple of Longxiang Taoist Academy, in reality he is not much different from a casual cultivator.

It has to be said that Bai Buhui's guess was pretty accurate, except for one thing. Zhang Jingyuan was also targeting Lingbao Lake in addition to these two items.

If this were not the case, it would not be impossible for Zhang Jingyuan to become a casual cultivator.

Hearing what Bai Bugui said, Zhang Jingyuan smiled slightly and said, "Maybe I am an exception?"

He admitted that what Bai Bugui said made sense, and that most monks came here this way. After all, practice cannot be as simple as immersing yourself in hard work.

If this is the case, Taoism will be immortal, and Taoist alliances will be filled with Taoist kings, who will exist like human emperors.

But the problem is that these obstacles and natural barriers that exist for most monks in their practice do not exist for him.

After all, he was also a Taoist in his previous life. If these mental states, confusion and obstacles in understanding the way of heaven still exist, then he can really only say that he really wasted half an era in his previous life.

Therefore, he felt that even if his cultivation realm would stagnate in the future, with a little effort, he would be able to reach a breakthrough realm that would naturally overflow.

Just like when he became a foundation-building monk, although it seemed that Bai Buhui's Golden Ape had stimulated him, if only this stimulation could make him achieve a breakthrough.

Then maybe, next time he encounters something, he can smoothly break through the realm and break through the obstacles of the realm. For him, even a thin film is not considered.

However, the most important problem is that since he killed the Song brothers, the great elder will definitely keep an eye on him.

Maybe there are a pair of eyes now, outside Longxiang Taoist Temple, watching him all the time. Once he leaves Yunhai Star, or even Longxiang City, he will receive a thunderous blow.

Thinking about it now, what he showed at that time was just a seventh-level Qi refining person. The great elder of the demon cultivator could send three foundation-building Dzogchen monks like the Song brothers to wait for him at Yunhua Star for sixteen years. Then, he would not be surprised at all what kind of crazy things the demon cultivator does next.

Therefore, for the sake of his own life, he had better practice until the golden elixir stage.

After all, according to the rate of improvement in his strength, especially with the help of the panel, his Taoism, swordsmanship, etc. can be improved simultaneously with his cultivation, but it only requires the consumption of some spiritual stones.

Therefore, he estimated that when he reaches the golden elixir stage, he will be able to protect himself in front of the Yuanying monks.

And I believe that as long as he disguises himself well after being paralyzed by so many years of seclusion, he can ensure that he can go out smoothly without attracting the eyes and attention of the demon cultivators in Longxiang City.

After all, in his memory, in another twenty years or so, some of Yun Haixing's opportunities would be able to be opened.

I believe that by then, his strength will have made some good leaps and he will have enough power to protect himself.

Looking at Zhang Jingyuan's confident face, Bai Bugui couldn't help but feel dazed, and even felt strangely familiar with what Zhang Jingyuan said.

'Maybe I am an exception...' Isn't this what she often said to her master?
But now that these words came out of Zhang Jingyuan's mouth, she really felt an inexplicable weird feeling.

But she had to admit that Zhang Jingyuan was far more qualified than her to say this.

When he thought of this, an indescribable depression arose in Bai Bugui's heart.

And now she has also discovered an astonishing fact. The reason why she doesn't care about those so-called false reputations is because there is really no one around her who can fight, and no one is worthy of her attention.

But after meeting Zhang Jingyuan, she felt that she still cared a little bit.

She immediately decided that from today on, she would come to Zhang Jingyuan's cave to drink tea less often, and practice more in her own cave.

At most, after each retreat, you can come to Zhang Jingyuan's cave to drink tea for three days in a row, and then go back to practice.

Thinking of this, Bai Buhui immediately hesitated. Otherwise, it would be one more day, four days...

Now she is really reluctant to let go of this warm and comfortable feeling in Zhang Jingyuan's cave, with a peaceful mind, indifference to the world, and a feeling of isolation.

Four days, just four days!

With one more day left, Bai Buhui instantly felt that his mood was much better.

Seeing that Bai Bugui was silent for a long time, thinking that Bai Bugui felt that he had been in seclusion for too long, Zhang Jingyuan couldn't help but smile slightly and said:

"Actually, it sounds a bit exaggerated to vow not to leave seclusion until the golden elixir is achieved, as if I have to go into seclusion for a hundred and eighty years. But in fact, I think it will take at most twenty years, or even twenty years, for me to be successful. Out of seclusion."

"And it's not like I'm locked up in a death lock. It's still the same as now. As long as you call me, I can still come out at any time."

The threat posed to him by the Great Elder of the Demonic Cultivator was really too great. Not to mention his tyrannical strength and huge power, the most rare thing was that he was deeply scheming and willing to take action at all costs.

Facing such an enemy, if he does not have enough power to protect himself, it will be like having a sword of Damocles hanging above his head at all times, and he can die on the spot at any time, and his soul can return to the earth.

"Twenty years?"

Hearing what Zhang Jingyuan said, Bai Bugui couldn't help but take a breath of air. In the world of cultivation, most monks can advance from the foundation building stage to the golden elixir stage between one hundred and twenty to one hundred and fifty years. Crossing a big realm is enough to make people laugh.

But Zhang Jingyuan actually said that it only took him twenty years to become a golden elixir monk. This was too exaggerated.

After all, you must know that it took her nearly thirty years to become a golden elixir monk.

But in the next moment, a thought flashed through his mind, and Bai Buhui instantly became speechless.

Well, she admitted that with Zhang Jingyuan's current performance, he could reach the golden elixir stage within twenty years.

To go even further, Zhang Jingyuan has gone from the early stage of foundation building to the middle stage of foundation building in less than a year. It is entirely possible for Zhang Jingyuan to become a golden elixir monk within two years, let alone twenty years.

But she sincerely hoped that this wouldn't happen.

It wasn't that she was too petty and didn't want Zhang Jingyuan to surpass her, but that if something like this happened, she felt that her entire outlook on practice and life would completely collapse.

So now Bai Buhui feels that Zhang Jingyuan spent twenty years cultivating to the golden elixir stage, which is really good.

"Then just work hard, I'm going back to work hard too."

With that said, Bai Buhui was about to say goodbye and leave. She really couldn't stay in this place any longer.

"Don't be so anxious. I still have something to do and I need your help."

Zhang Jingyuan quickly called out to Bai Buhui.

　I wish everyone a happy New Year, may everything go well in 2024, and may all your wishes come true.
