Chapter 190: How Far Apart Are We?

Li Wuyi sat in the main hall, looking uneasy. Miao Wangqing stared at Li Wuyi's handsome face with her big eyes. As she looked at him, she didn't know what she thought of. Her pretty face suddenly turned red. But when she saw that Li Wuyi didn't seem to notice her, she breathed a sigh of relief and asked curiously, "Big Brother, Big Brother, what are you thinking about? There are still many things that need you to deal with here?"

She called him several times before Li Wuyi came back to his senses. He couldn't help but smile awkwardly at her. This smile made Miao Wangqing smile, "Big Brother, you look absent-minded. Are you thinking about the insect girl from Buli Peak again?"

"Insect Girl" is the name she gave to Li Changting.

"Oh, no, Fourth Junior Sister, did you notice that there was something wrong with Junior Sister Six and Junior Sister Min yesterday? After they went out, they came back with a lonely look on their faces."

"You said Junior Sister Six and Junior Sister Min were not right? What was wrong? Why didn't I see it? Senior Brother, are you still drunk last night? I heard that they grew up together. You should know this better than anyone else. The relationship is incomparable even between sisters. I wouldn't be surprised if someone said that they would marry the same man in the future. It's just that Junior Sister Min won't like Senior Brother Three..." After hearing what Li Wuyi said, Miao Wangqing started chattering, which made Li Wuyi feel overwhelmed and waved his hands repeatedly.

"Stop, stop, stop, what are you talking about? I just asked you if you felt that the two of them were not as casual as before yesterday. Why are you talking nonsense?"

"When did I talk nonsense? Don't you know them better than me? The Sixth Junior Sister is half the master of Junior Sister Min. What else can make them quarrel? I didn't think there was anything wrong yesterday. Well, the two of them went out to talk alone for a while, so I think they talked about some private things. Ah... By the way, weren't you drunk at that time? How did you know that they went out? How did you see that they looked wrong when they came back? Okay, you are pretending to be drunk. No, I have to talk to the insect girl about this... Hehehe"

Miao Wangqing flashed her big eyes, twisted her jade fingers like green onions, and said one thing after another. Suddenly, she screamed, which scared Li Wuyi. Then he saw a pair of cunning eyes staring at him, and sneered from her mouth. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, as if he had forgotten something last night.

But he also remembered Miao Wangqing's words "Marrying the same husband?" in his mind, but he threw it away the next moment. Third Junior Brother would never be favored by Junior Sister Min, which was really ridiculous.

…………

The courtyard was silent for a long time, and Gong Chenying spoke first, "Li Yan, I'm going to retreat soon."

"Oh, Sixth Senior Sister has gained something from this trip to the secret realm." Li Yan was thinking about Gong Chenying's previous words and replied casually.

Everyone enters the secret realm not only for rewards, but also for the rich spiritual energy and life-and-death pressure

It can make people break through easily. Even if they can't break through at that time, it will consolidate their cultivation and lay the foundation for the next level of impact in the future. Another point is that after passing the life and death trial, everyone's state of mind will undergo a qualitative change, which is often more precious than a direct breakthrough. The change in state of mind will make the realm more stable, and it will be more like a fish in water when performing immortal arts. Unlike Li Yan, who had continuous breakthroughs before, his state of mind and understanding have already fallen far behind his realm. Even if the immortal arts he performed were several times more powerful than before, they were still jerky and stagnant, and could not be smooth and satisfactory. This would not be a problem when dealing with cultivators with lower realms than himself, but when fighting a life-and-death battle with someone who was almost the same level as himself, a pause at a certain moment might cost his life in an instant. That momentary stagnation was enough for the other party to kill him dozens of times.

After Li Yan finished speaking, Gong Chenying didn't reply for a long time. He looked up and saw Gong Chenying lowering her head. As if sensing Li Yan's gaze, she made a mosquito-like sound "Ah... Ah... Ah Ying."

Li Yan didn't hear it clearly at first, but after thinking about it carefully, he suddenly understood it. His face was hot. He had never called a woman so intimately before. He scratched the back of his head awkwardly.

"Then Ah... Ah Ying, Ah Ying, are you retreating this time to break through to the next realm, or to consolidate your understanding and cultivation?"

Gong Chenying listened to Li Yan's stuttering words, her pretty face flushed, and she couldn't help but look up at Li Yan. When she saw Li Yan scratching the back of his head and shouting "A Ying" in his mouth, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Her smile was like ice melting and flowers blooming, her teeth were like gourds, her eyes were longing, her red lips were slightly pursed, and the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned, just like the scorching sun and fire. Li Yan, who was looking at her, felt like he was in a fog for a while, and didn't know where he was.

As soon as Gong Chenying laughed, she felt something was wrong, and hurriedly lowered her head, bit her pearly teeth lightly, and a few strands of short hair slid from her ears to her silky cheeks. The crystal earlobes shone like translucent agate.

A pair of jade hands wanted to retract on the stone table, but felt a little abrupt. When her hands were crossed, her slender jade fingers gently twisted together, and she looked a little uneasy.

Li Yan had never seen such a heart-warming scene before, and his face was red and his neck was thick for a while. For a while, you could hear a pin drop in the courtyard, and it seemed that only the heartbeats of each other echoed in their minds.

After a long time, Gong Chenying raised his head again, with residual shyness on his face. He bit his lower lip and said, "It's not about understanding the state of mind. It's because your elixir has a lot of remaining power. It was originally when you came back yesterday." It’s time to retreat, but because of..., I feel that this retreat is very likely to impact the realm of fake elixirs.” Halfway through her words, her voice became even lower.

"Oh? You said that the healing elixir still has so much medicinal power?" Speaking of "True Essence"

"Elixir", Li Yan suddenly became energetic. He did not expect that the elixir was so overbearing. Not only was it astonishing in its healing effect, it also had an effect on improving cultivation. This was something he wanted to know. After all, he still had a pill in his hand. The more clearly you understand the "True Essence Pill", the better you will be able to know when to use it in the future.

"Well, I don't think this elixir is a fifth-grade elixir. It should be at least a sixth-grade elixir, or even a high-grade sixth-grade elixir. Even after healing, the power of the medicine in my body is still extremely strong. I feel that I can't suppress it anymore. It is necessary to retreat as soon as possible. It should be no problem to reach the peak of the later stage of foundation building." Thinking of such a valuable elixir, Li Yan gave it to him without hesitation, and Gong Chenying felt a little sweet in his heart. But she didn't know that Li Yan didn't hesitate at first. Instead, he gave it to her after she suffered from heartache and found that there was really no other pill that could cure her. He was also worried about it for a while.

However, if a similar situation were to occur now, Li Yan would seriously not have any hesitation. Li Yan is particularly willing to give to his loved ones, and he will give to others without hesitation. But he often racks his brains to deal with the people he wants to deal with, and even resorts to any means to achieve his goals.

Li Yan is both affectionate and ruthless. He killed the third military commander when he was young. However, the first time he killed someone, he was not weak or afraid. And he is a contradictory person. Emotionally, he has extremely strong selfish desires, but he has to be recognized by someone who can enter his heart. Otherwise, even if he is gorgeous and charming, he will not waver at all. When it comes to For his fundamental interests, he will kill without mercy.

"It's still a sixth-grade high-level medicine. If I say it's an eighth-grade elixir, will you jump? However, this medicine is still used even in flat soil healing. It should not only help her rush to the late stage of foundation building or fake elixir. It's simple, this is much higher than the 'Wuxin Pill' given to me by my master. I just need to worry about whether my state of mind and understanding can keep up, just like me now." Li Yan looked at Gong Chenying with a smile. , but he thought with some satisfaction in his heart, and said at the same time.

"I really don't know about this. Then, apart from what you did before, you came here today to tell me that you are going to retreat. You can just send a message for this. There is no need to make a special trip."

After saying this, Li Yan thought about Zhao Min again, and sighed in his heart. He wanted to sort it out, but the more he reasoned out, the more confused he became. He also thought about whether Zhao Min would be the same as before when he saw him again in the future, and not to make things worse. In fact, it was the reason why he didn't want to cut off contact with Zhao Min from the bottom of his heart. Just like someone who always gets along well with his friends, maybe there is no such thing as male and female. It's hard to accept.

In terms of familiarity, in the sect, apart from Li Wuyi, Lin Daqiao was the one Zhao Min talked to the most and was one of the earliest friends he had contact with. He liked to be with her in silence. He once said, Not a word was spoken, as if time had stopped. Occasionally speaking, both parties would fall into a short silence.

, as if you were immersed in the sentence just now, you can recall it for a long time and savor it carefully.

Gong Chenying was smart enough to hear that when Li Yan mentioned "previous things", there was a slight pause in his voice, and he sighed in his heart.

The river of stars is full of boats, how far away we are...

"When I go back today, I will immediately go into seclusion, which can take at least a few months or up to a year. But before I go into seclusion, there is one more thing I need to tell you. Whether you do it or not is entirely up to you." Gong Chenying took a deep breath. He took a breath and then looked at Li Yan with beautiful eyes.

Li Yan looked at Gong Chenying's solemn expression and was stunned. He didn't know what could make her so serious.

"Do you want to learn the technique of 'Qiongqi Purgatory'?"

As soon as Gong Chenying said these words, Li Yan was shocked. He knew that the secret body refining technique practiced by Gong Chenying was called "Qiongqi Purgatory", but why Gong Chenying highlighted these words surprised him. This technique was briefly mentioned by Gong Chenying before. It is the top-level secret technique of the Tianli clan and the same level as witchcraft. It is the most powerful cultivation technique in the world and cannot be accessed by anyone who is not the core of the Tianli clan. From this point of view , Li Yan can also guess that Gong Chenying must have a very high status in the Tianli clan, so high that Gong Chenying doesn't want to mention it at all. Now for no reason, he seems to want to let himself practice this technique. When will the secret technique become So easy to get.

However, it is impossible to say that Li Yan does not want to get this top-level body refining technique. After seeing Gong Chenying's strength in this trial, he has long wanted to spend a lot of money to find a body refining book when he comes back. Technique.

In fact, he has read introductions about body refining in classics before. There is also body refining in the Demon Sect, but it is extremely rare. There are only a few books, and they are for beginners and intermediates. There is no advanced body refining book. Techniques, not to mention top-level body refining techniques, this is still in a super overlord sect like the Sprite Sect. Those first- and second-rate sects probably have a basic body refining technique or a residual book, even if it is among the secrets. It's a secret, and it is definitely regarded as a treasure of the sect.

There are only a few books of body-refining techniques in the sect. It is said that they can only be cultivated to the Golden Core Stage, and there are no techniques for the subsequent realms. These few books of body-refining techniques, even the elementary ones, require a huge amount of spirit stones to buy. At that time, Li Yan could be said to be penniless, and the spirit stones every month were not enough for his cultivation. In addition, the classics emphasized that those who practiced the dual cultivation of the body and the law would make the overall progress of cultivation very slow due to multitasking, so this matter was put aside.

However, after witnessing Gong Chenying's moves and the strength of the demon cultivators during this trip to the secret realm, he had a completely changed understanding of body-refining techniques, and he was extremely eager in his heart. He was still calculating that he might be able to buy an elementary body-refining technique with the hundreds of spirit stones rewarded by the sect this time, plus the spoils from the Wheel of Life and Death, especially the hundreds of flying swords of Miao Zhengyi, but he didn't expect Gong Chenying to bring it up so easily, which made Li Yan stunned on the spot, but he felt that it would not be so simple.
