Eternal Tranquility

Liu Qinghuan took the communication talisman handed over by Mu Yinyin and read it at a glance.

"What did fellow Taoist Yun say in his letter?"

"It's about refining the Heaven-Sealing Pill Talisman. Yun Zheng told me the latest progress and asked me to go to Ziwei Sword Pavilion to find him when I have time." Liu Qinghuan muttered: "Things did not go as smoothly as we had expected. When the Heavenly Pill Talisman becomes a talisman, it will cause thunder disaster."

"This talisman is so miraculous!" Mu Yinyin said in surprise: "Yes, all divine objects must undergo the baptism of heavenly calamity when they are born. It is not just the talisman. For example, if you refine an elixir, you can refine a magical elixir, if you refine a weapon, you can To get a magical weapon, you have to pass this level.”

After thinking for a while, he asked: "Then are you going to Ziwei Sword Pavilion? Fellow Taoist Yun asked you to go, there must be something wrong."

Liu Qinghuan put down the summons talisman and said: "I'm afraid that's not possible at the moment. I can't leave the sect for the time being. I have to wait for the follow-up progress of the Wanhujie incident. I will send a summons and ask first to see if the matter at Yunzheng's place is urgent."

He sighed: "Actually, we should have thought of this a long time ago. The symbol of Sealing Heaven Pill is called Sealing Heaven, and its effect is amazing. It is not an ordinary talisman in the first place. We were also negligent before, thinking that Huang Eryao could refine it at the Nascent Soul stage. , it should not be a magical talisman, but both Yun Zheng and I have forgotten that this talisman comes from the Supreme Secret Code of Talisman Dao in Huang Gu's Alchemy Book, "Tai Shang Zheng Da Dong Jing Lu". Only with the Huang family's unique talisman refining techniques and It can only be refined by the mind. It is absolutely impossible for outsiders to refine it during the Nascent Soul."

Mu Yinyin said politely: "In other words, it is impossible to see the birth of the Heaven Sealing Pill Talisman in the short term?"

"That should be the case. Although Jingjue's speech skills can refine the elixir, the subsequent thunder tribulation will be a heavenly catastrophe, but he can't help. And the person who refines the elixir will also have to go through the tribulation. Huang Eryao's Cultivation..."

He shook his head disapprovingly.

"Huh?" Mu Yinyin's eyes moved smartly: "How about giving me the lightning-proof magnet you gave me to fellow Taoist Yun?"

Liu Qing said with a smile: "No, I already gave him a piece."

"That……"

"I'm afraid it won't work. After all, using the thunder-proof pole magnet is a trick. Just like the Nascent Soul Tribulation, although being chopped is painful and dangerous, it is also a gift from heaven. After the thunder is washed, the physical body will be tempered from the inside out. , It will also make the cultivation more stable and make us monks more powerful. This is especially true for the Sealing Heaven Pill Talisman. If it cannot pass the Thunder Tribulation, the effectiveness of the Talisman will definitely be greatly reduced. "

He held Mu Yinyin's hand and said, "I'm giving you the Thunderproof Magnetic Magnet just in case. If there is an accident in the future, or if you really can't bear it, it can be used to save your life. Just like I told Nian En, being struck by lightning has more advantages than disadvantages."

Mu Yinyin looked at him, with a mischievous smile in her eyes: "I know, there is reward only if you pay, and blindly taking advantage of it is like a loft in the sky, which may collapse one day. Master Liu, I am right. Right?"

"Hahaha." Liu Qinghuan couldn't help laughing, and tapped the tip of the nose of the person in his arms affectionately, causing the beauty to give him an angry look.

Mu Yinyin was still cold in front of outsiders, but she became more and more lively in front of him, revealing the delicate and lovely side of a little woman.

The atmosphere in the house also changed, becoming as affectionate as the spring breeze.

After rubbing their ears together for a while, Mu Yinyin glanced at the poems spread out on the desk, pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Brother Liu is more leisurely and affectionate now, and he has started to write poems."

Liu Qinghuan's expression changed subtly, and he said solemnly: "That is not a poem, but a prophecy."

He stood up and walked to the desk, told her about the ambush before, and focused on the bloodline abilities of Bu Xi and the Bu family.

Mu Yinyin listened quietly, and her expression became serious: "In other words, it is very possible that these lines of poetry are a prophecy... How do you interpret it?"

Liu Qinghuan had been thinking for a long time before and said slowly: "I can't understand it. The prophecy is extremely difficult to understand before it comes true. It is clear at a glance, but there are hidden dangers in every detail when you look closely."

He pointed his finger on the table: "For example, the word 'yun dark' may refer to Yun Mengze, or it may just describe the situation. Another example is 'demon haze penetrates the sun', 'ghost cries in the sky' is easier to understand, but 'demon haze penetrates the sky' What is "Haze"? Demonic beast? And are there any hidden secrets in the "Spring Thunder" and "Gan Lin"? In addition, the last paragraph is what I care about most.

Mu Yinyin read: "If a tree comes out in the east, thirty or seventy fights, when will the wind in the five lakes stop?"

"Yes." Liu Qinghuan said, pacing back and forth with his hands behind his back: "Bu Xi probably suspected me because of the words '东出一木', but I feel that these words may not be referring to me. The biggest The problem lies in the word 'out'!"

"Be born, grow, appear?" Mu Yinyin guessed: "Or is it a monk named Mu?"

The two discussed the prophecy in detail, but they didn't come up with any results.

Seeing that Liu Qinghuan was still thinking hard, she comforted: "Don't be so anxious, it's okay if you can't think of it. You can't avoid what is coming, and what can be avoided is not a secret. Let's just accept it."

Liu Qinghuan also knew that he couldn't force it, so he crumpled the paper on the table into a ball and threw it into the incense burner in the corner.

When he turned around, he saw that Mu Yinyin was in a daze, and couldn't help but smile: "You told me not to think about it, why did you think about it yourself?"

"I was not thinking about the prophecy." Mu Yinyin said: "I just received the transfer order from the alliance not long ago, and I will probably leave for the Yin Yue Blood Realm again in the near future."

Liu Qinghuan frowned and said, "How long have you been back? Why are you leaving so soon?"

Mu Yinyin raised her hand and gently stroked his eyebrows, with a bit of reluctance on her face: "Yeah, I finally waited until you came back, and we had to separate again after not even being together for a few days. I really didn't want to. It's just that the situation seems to be very urgent this time..."

She stopped suddenly. Liu Qinghuan noticed the hesitation in her expression and raised his hand to stroke her hair.

"Does the matter need to be kept secret? If you can't tell it, you don't have to tell me. However, I heard that the Yin Yue Blood Realm has made a strong counterattack recently, and the situation ahead is a bit grim, so you must be careful when you go."

Mu Yinyin rubbed his hand, her eyes full of attachment, and smiled: "The secret is indeed a secret, but with your status, it is easy to know."

She pulled Liu Qinghuan to stand up, walked to the quiet bamboo forest outside the study, and slowly talked about her mission this time.

"There is a small sect in the Yin-Yue Blood Realm called Jinghua Tower. On the surface, it is engaged in intelligence trading. It is no different from other sects in the Yin-Yue Blood Realm. The disciples it recruits are also people from that realm. But in fact This sect is under the control of Yun Mengze, who specializes in spying on the other side's intelligence. This time, it seems that they discovered something strange somewhere and needed manpower, so they requested the alliance to send more monks above Nascent Soul to take over. investigation."

"Jinghua Tower..." Liu Qinghuan praised: "This is a good idea. The Alliance actually thought of planting such a nail on the opposite side. It is quite far-sighted."

Mu Yinyin smiled and said: "As far as I know, the Jinghua Tower was not built by the Alliance. It was originally a group of female cultivators who lived in the Yin Yue Blood Realm. They built the Jinghua Tower for self-protection. And slowly secretly transmitted some more important information, which attracted the attention of the Immortal Cultivation Alliance. Later, Jinghua Tower grew stronger and stronger with the secret support of the alliance, and after so many years, it has been completely integrated into the Yin Yue Blood Realm."

"That's it!"

Liu Qinghuan was a little surprised and thought: "A group of female cultivators who have wandered into the Yin Yue Blood Realm..."

An old incident suddenly came to mind, and his expression became a little strange, and he asked: "The owner of Jinghua Building...is his surname Yue?"

Mu Yinyin opened her eyes wide: "Hey, does Brother Liu know Fellow Taoist Linghui? Her real name is indeed Yue, Yue Weiyang, and she was originally a casual cultivator in Saofeng Continent."

"Well……"

At this moment, Liu Qinghuan was surprised and admired at the same time: "They actually succeeded... incredible!"

Mu Yinyin looked puzzled.

Liu Qinghuan said: "If the other party is indeed called Yue Weiyang, I took over the mission of the Great Mirage and lurked into the Yin Yue Blood Realm. I accidentally learned that a group of Yunmengze female cultivators were captured and auctioned off. It was a coincidence. Rescued Yue Weiyang and others. The situation was tense at that time, and they could not return to Yunmengze. They did say that they would build a sect of their own, but I had a mission and couldn't stay long, so I don't know what happens next. "

Thinking of the past, Liu Qinghuan sighed with emotion: "I didn't expect that they really succeeded... A group of women, in an unfamiliar world, broke out in one breath. How difficult and dangerous it was, just think about it. knew."

Mu Yinyin was greatly surprised. She did not expect that there was such a past behind the establishment of Jinghua Tower. And if Liu Qinghuan hadn't rescued Yue Weiyang and others, there would probably be no Jinghua Tower today, and those female cultivators who were captured would most likely have been turned into playthings and died silently and miserably in another world.

Liu Qinghuan asked: "Have the actions of Jinghua Tower never been discovered by people from the Yin Yue Blood Realm?"

Mu Yinyin thought for a while and said: "This is probably because the internal structure of Jinghua Tower is very different from that of other sects. It is extremely strict and hierarchical. Orders are passed from top to bottom. It is extremely difficult for the disciples below to reach the upper levels. Moreover, it has no real sect headquarters. It has only established a large number of outer sects in major Xiuxian cities. It is more like a chamber of commerce to say that it is a sect. "

Liu Qinghuan nodded and asked for details with interest. However, Mu Yinyin only knew so much, and she was only informed because she accepted a mission from the Immortal Cultivation Alliance.

Jinghua Tower is extremely dangerous because it involves stealing intelligence, so its behavior is deliberately kept mysterious, not only to the Yin Yue Blood Realm, but also to Yun Mengze.

In this case, Liu Qinghuan stopped talking about those disturbing business matters. The two of them walked hand in hand in the beautiful scenery of Qingjian Peak, enjoying the precious time together.

In the next two days, Mu Yinyin left the Wenshi Sect and headed to the Yin Yue Blood Realm.

Liu Qinghuan was waiting for the follow-up of the incident in Wanhu Realm. The cross-border communication talisman had been sent out, but neither Taizun Dayan nor Taoist Zhenji of Shaoyang Sect had responded yet.

He rarely went out when he had some free time. On the one hand, he was in case someone was ambushing him outside like Bu Shu, and on the other hand, he was also impatient to study the recipe for the Nirvana Pill.

Wen Dao has found the right person. With Liu Qinghuan's preference and enthusiasm for alchemy, no one can stop him, and he will dive in to study it whenever he has time.

The recipe for the Nirvana Pill was recorded in the jade slip, but it was obvious that it was copied intact from the paper page or animal skin. It also made it possible to see at a glance the incompleteness of the lower half, as if someone had Just torn it off.

Generally speaking, an elixir recipe consists of two parts, one is the elixir and the other is the refining method, written vertically from right to left. Unfortunately, the missing section of this elixir recipe not only left the required elixir incomplete, but also the refining steps were completely broken.

Liu Qinghuan could figure out the latter based on his many years of experience in alchemy, but the former was not so easy to complete.

An elixir recipe must go through countless tests and improvements before it can be considered a complete recipe. Every elixir it requires is indispensable. Even if it is just the same, it may cause the refining to fail.

Based on calculations, Liu Qinghuan concluded that at least four elixirs were missing from this recipe, which would cost you your life!

"How can this be made up for..."

He felt a headache and wanted to slap the pill formula back on the face of Wen Dao, the old thief.

The only consolation is that the agreement they made is very loose. Even if it can't be completed in the end, Wen Dao can't do anything to him.

"I'm not at a loss anyway." Liu Qinghuan took out the storage bag containing the seeds and said to himself with bright eyes: "Five kinds of elixir seeds above the ground level, hahaha! Well, let's plant them first."

Turn around and enter the Songxi Cave Tiantu.

The next few months were spent taking care of the elixir and studying the elixir recipe. In addition, Lele also brought his daughter to Wenshi Sect, and he would sometimes help.

Creating a new mental cultivation method is obviously much more difficult than completing the elixir recipe, not to mention that there is not much time left for Lele.

"Uncle Liu, Uncle Liu!"

As soon as Liu Qinghuan walked in the door, a little guy rushed over, with a slightly shy and innocent smile on his face.

He knelt down and picked up Xiaoxiao, teasing her: "Hey, Xiaoxiao has eaten two bowls of rice today. She is much heavier than the past few days."

The little girl said softly: "My mother said that you have to eat more to grow taller. I ate a big bowl of rice, a big fish, and white tofu..."

She began to count on her fingers and murmured one by one what she had eaten these days.

After getting along for a period of time, Xiaoxiao became quite familiar with Liu Qinghuan and became much more lively in front of him.

The place where she lived was equipped with a Jueling Formation, and she used the most common ingredients for food and clothing. After slowly recuperating, her body became much better than before, and she also grew taller.

"Yan Xiaoxiao, I heard your yelling from all the way." Lele walked out of the room holding a book: "Is your Uncle Liu here? Come on, get off your uncle, you wild girl. !”

Xiaoxiao was locked in the room on weekdays, and now she was holding Liu Qinghuan's neck like candy: "No!"

Liu Qing said with a smile: "I haven't come to see her for several days, so just let her play with me for a while."

Lele couldn't resist her daughter's wishes, so she had to compromise and sit aside and continue reading.

Xiaoxiao took him to play with the Nine Links for a while, and then told him stories about strange things, and then took him to see his new embroidery work: "Uncle Liu, my mother said that I am a big girl and I want to learn embroidery. You See if I can embroider well?"

Liu Qinghuan looked at the colorful threads on the embroidered cloth and praised sincerely: "Well, this duck is so well embroidered, just like the real thing."

The little girl pouted: "Uncle Liu, what I embroider is flowers!"

Liu Qinghuan felt the sweat on his back, and he looked surprised: "Uncle Liu was just blinded by it, it turned out to be a flower, it's so beautiful!"

Lele laughed as he watched this scene.

Sorry for being late today.
