Chapter 2 Breakthrough

At the age of eighteen, Li Guanxuan had been struggling in Xianxu for five and a half years. He dragged his exhausted body to Huanxi Mountain and stood like a minion.

After layers of screening, he was eliminated by the sect because of his low-grade spiritual root qualifications.

Before leaving, he saw the huge velvet flower spirit tree from a distance...

Could it be that the velvet flower spirit tree entered my body at that time?

Li Guanxuan's face was solemn. As early as 25 years ago, Huanxi Mountain had reported the disappearance of the sect's treasure tree.

It was also because of this that the foundation-building ancestor of Huanxi Mountain had been unable to enter the golden elixir stage, and now his life span was about to end...

It's bad!

Li Guanxuan's heart sank. This is a definite revenge for the broken path. Once someone finds out that the velvet flower spirit tree is in my body, won't the foundation-building ancestor come over and slap me to death?

Soon, Li Guanxuan calmed down.

At this point, it is impossible to return the velvet flower spirit tree, not in this life.

You know, a low-level casual cultivator like him will never be able to touch the first-level spiritual veins in his lifetime, and the spiritual energy that can be absorbed for cultivation is even less. If there is no adventure, there is almost no hope of building a foundation in this life.

Now there is a treasure tree that can produce spiritual energy in his body. Want him to return it? No way!

Moreover, Li Guanxuan clearly felt that the pure energy born from the velvet flower spiritual tree was helping him to slowly open up the meridians.

As long as he pushed a little harder, he could break through to the third level of Qi Refining at any time.

About an hour later...

The spiritual energy expanded the meridians and then slowly stored them in the limbs and bones, moving closer to the Dantian Qi Sea, and turned into spiritual power to feed back to the body.

Li Guanxuan opened his eyes, exhaled a breath of turbid air from his mouth, and showed a happy look on his face.

The third level of Qi Refining!

He has been stuck in the second level of Qi Refining for twenty years, and now he has finally broken through to the third level of Qi Refining!

This also made Li Guanxuan more determined in his inner thoughts.

Even if he died, or jumped off the Happy Mountain, he couldn't return the Velvet Flower Spirit Tree!

Li Guanxuan thought to himself that he had been in Qing'an City for twenty years. If the foundation-building ancestor could sense the Velvet Flower Spirit Tree, he would have come to him long ago...

It can be seen that as long as he develops quietly and doesn't act casually, he will most likely be fine.

"Next, I have to make pills and draw talismans well, practice diligently... that is, be considerate, and strive to build a foundation as soon as possible!"

In the dark night, Li Guanxuan looked down at his hands.

Although he lost a craft that was close to the Tao, he gained a treasure tree that could produce spiritual energy, and a little wife, which seemed to be worth it?

Moreover, Li Guanxuan suspected that his qualifications of the four-element lower-grade spiritual roots were related to this craft?

After all, those who have learned calculus know that this product is getting smaller and smaller as it is guided...

"However, what is the pure energy born from the velvet flower spirit tree? It is like spiritual energy, but not like spiritual energy."

Li Guanxuan frowned and thought hard. The pure energy first stayed in his limbs for a while, then began to travel through the meridians, slowly transformed into spiritual energy, and finally gathered in the Dantian Qi Sea.

"Forget it, my vision is too low now, and my knowledge is too shallow. I'd better not think about this kind of foundation building pill. I will worry about it when I reach that level in the future, so as not to disturb my Tao heart."

Li Guanxuan smiled slightly, then looked at Wen Rongxin who had fallen asleep, and was full of emotion.

Perhaps it was God's mercy that gave the two people struggling at the bottom the hope of survival, and even the long-awaited immortal way of immortality.

In addition, Wen Rongxin also contributed partly to the activation of the velvet flower spirit tree.

After all, the velvet flower spirit tree has another alias - Hehuan.

If the couple had not been of the same mind, the pure energy in the Velvet Flower Spirit Tree would probably not have appeared.

Thinking of the love at first sight in the teahouse, and the heart-to-heart communication over the past half month, Li Guanxuan could not help but sigh at the word fate, which was really mysterious and wonderful.

Before putting on his clothes, Li Guanxuan could not help but sigh again.

How could he be a low-grade spiritual root of the fourth system? It was clearly a top-grade water spiritual root, hum.

Li Guanxuan sat cross-legged for another hour, his mind was clear, and then he hugged his little wife and slowly fell asleep.

…

The next day, in the morning.

Perhaps because she was too tired last night, Wen Rongxin woke up in a daze and found a hand on her body, so she carefully picked it up and put it in the quilt.

Then, Wen Rongxin tiptoed to the bed and took another look at Li Guanxuan who was sleeping soundly. While feeling peaceful in her heart, she smiled lightly on her delicate pink oval face, revealing two lovely dimples.

After putting on her shoes, Wen Rongxin stood up and prepared to go out, but suddenly she cried softly and stumbled forward.

At this time, a warm big hand directly embraced her and then took her into his arms.

Wen Rongxin looked up and saw a handsome face with a smile, and her face was immediately flushed. She buried her hands in his arms without saying a word.

Li Guanxuan knew that she was shy and her personality was relatively simple and weak. If he continued to tease her, she would probably not dare to look at herself for a day.

"Lie on the bed for a while, I'll make breakfast for you, and get out of bed when you feel better."

Li Guanxuan carried her to the bed and gently put her down, covered her with a quilt, and said in a gentle tone.

"I, I'm a warrior, I'll recover soon..."

Wen Rongxin grabbed the quilt to cover her head, hid in the quilt and said in a muffled voice: "You go practice first, I'll make breakfast for you."

"Lie down obediently, even if it's just for half an hour, a warrior's body can't stand the torment of a cultivator." Li Guanxuan said.

"Oh."

Wen Rongxin pulled down the quilt, revealing only a pair of round and big almond eyes, looking at Li Guanxuan pitifully, indicating that she could get out of bed to work.

Li Guanxuan said: "Have a good rest, I still have to be considerate tonight, dear."

Wen Rongxin's eyes were full of doubts. What does her husband mean by considerate?

After Li Guanxuan went out, Wen Rongxin silently muttered that time would pass quickly.

Just after half an hour, Wen Rongxin hurriedly got up, folded the quilt and walked to the hall, and saw that Li Guanxuan had already prepared breakfast.

Two bowls of noodles, one big and one small, and six boiled eggs and three big steamed buns, as well as a cup of warm spiritual milk.

"Why, why is there milk." Wen Rongxin looked puzzled.

She remembered that there was no milk at home.

"I went out and bought some back."

"It's very, very expensive."

Wen Rongxin felt a little distressed, she knew that Li Guanxuan bought it for her.

Li Guanxuan smiled and said, "It's okay. I still have to make pills and draw talismans today. Together with the Huiyuan Pills and amulets I made these days, I can probably sell them for about eight low-grade spirit stones."

"That's also very expensive..." Wen Rongxin lowered her head, her tone a little depressed.

She knew the prices. This cup of milk with spiritual energy would cost at least five taels of spiritual sand, a full half of a low-grade spirit stone.

"Eat it quickly, don't let it get cold, otherwise it won't taste good."

Li Guanxuan pushed the big bowl of noodles in front of Wen Rongxin, and took the small bowl and slurped it.

He had spiritual energy to replenish his physical energy, so it was okay to eat less food. As long as he entered the foundation building stage, he could slowly reduce his demand for food.

But Wen Rongxin still had to practice martial arts and strengthen his physical fitness, so he couldn't be stingy with food.

"I, I will eat less in the future, so you don't have to work so hard." Wen Rongxin raised her head, her almond eyes full of seriousness.

Li Guanxuan said while eating: "Don't worry, the hard times won't last long. When my cultivation level improves, we can eat whatever we want, without being so frugal... You should eat well first and spend most of your energy on martial arts training.

In short, the body is the capital of the revolution, you must remember this sentence."

Wen Rongxin probably understood what Li Guanxuan meant, her face flushed, and she stammered: "But, but..."

Li Guanxuan picked up an egg and peeled it, interrupting with a smile:

"No buts, just With your strong body, my luck will be better. Besides, I am a cultivator. Most of my energy comes from spiritual energy. Food has little effect on me. Only if you can develop strong bones and strong muscles as soon as possible, can our couple's life become happier and happier. Do you understand? "

After speaking, Li Guanxuan put the peeled eggs into Wen Rongxin's bowl and said seriously:

"My wife, don't tell outsiders what I said to you. No one can do it."

"Xiao, I understand."

Wen Rongxin nodded with a red face.

"Eat quickly."

"Okay."

...

After breakfast, Li Guanxuan came to the practice room.

This is the practice room, the alchemy room and the talisman drawing room.

There is no way, people are poor, so they can only vacate such a small place.

Li Guanxuan took out a talisman pen, a small bottle of spiritual blood cinnabar, and ten first-level talisman papers, and began to concentrate his mind and focus his spiritual consciousness on the talisman pen.

Mana spewed out, and when the pen tip fell, Li Guanxuan quickly drew the spiritual pattern on the talisman paper, and the pen moved quickly, and he did not dare to have any interruption during the process.

When it was about to end, Li Guanxuan suddenly felt relieved, and his heart moved, and the talisman pen in his hand continued to draw the spiritual pattern.

After a while, a light yellow light appeared on the talisman paper, and then converged.

"First-level middle-grade!"

Li Guanxuan wiped the sweat from his forehead. Although the mana consumed a lot, this was a real first-level middle-grade talisman!

The market price of a first-level low-grade amulet is one low-grade spiritual stone.

A first-level middle-grade amulet is eight low-grade spiritual stones!

The same price as Huiyuan Dan.

"Could it be because of that pure energy?"

Li Guanxuan thought of the energy that was like spiritual energy but not like spiritual energy. In the dark, it also improved his experience in drawing talismans?

"Take a break first, then draw a few more amulets, and see if there are any changes in alchemy tomorrow..."

Li Guanxuan sat cross-legged in meditation, closed his eyes, and adjusted his breath.

After he wasted three pieces of talisman paper, the second first-level medium-grade amulet was successful.

For a whole day, Li Guanxuan drew a total of four first-level medium-grade amulets.

At night, it was drizzling.

Li Guanxuan began to practice, and Wen Rongxin wiped the sweat off her husband considerately.

The rain fell outside the window, and the ground was muddy, just like the rain in the sky, moist as butter, and the spring tide came with rain in the evening.

Finally...

The wind sneaked into the night, moistening things silently.
