From the power of space to the heavens 2

Chapter 1224. Goodbye Yao Lao

As we chatted and laughed, we unknowingly arrived at the end of the trip.

That is in front of Yao Lao’s residence.

As the leader of Xingyun Pavilion.

The place where Yao Lao lives can be said to be quite luxurious.

In fact, in Yao Lao's original intention, he did not like such a big house. In his own words, a bed and a normal walking area, a secret room for refining medicine, a secret room for meditation, and then building a normal small courtyard outside these three places as a martial arts training ground would be enough.

Moreover, in this combination.

Many requirements are not quantitative.

After all, the house and the secret room for retreat can actually be combined into one, with the house on top and the hollowed-out secret room on the bottom. In this way, it not only gets good scores in terms of concealment, but also in terms of convenience. Although the consumption of materials is inevitable, if a normal house can be made of wood, or at worst some hard stones, then for Yao Lao, the secret room that can withstand the power of the shock waves during his retreat must not be made of wood or stone, and some precious materials must be mixed in. However, the advantage of doing this is that as long as Yao Lao wants to retreat, he does not need to find a temporary place. To put it more bluntly, Yao Lao can solve everything without leaving his house.

There is also a secret room used for refining medicine.

As everyone knows, Yao Lao is a ninth-rank alchemist.

When he refines medicine, it is basically accompanied by pill thunder.

Therefore, if the secret room used for refining medicine is built too small, it is useless; if it is built too large, it will be too ostentatious. From this logic, it is indeed difficult to have the best of both worlds.

But the other way around.

Refining those high-grade pills.

For example, those of rank seven and above.

Will Yao Lao practice refining here?

Obviously not!

For elixirs of the seventh grade and above, the ability of the pharmacist himself is important, but the environment is also indispensable. For example, the Tianrong Ruyi Pill, which can improve any Dou Sheng below the Seven-Star Dou Sheng by one small realm in a short period of time without any side effects, and the ninth-grade elixir must be produced at the moment of yin and yang rotation, that is, the moment when day and night switch. In other words, no matter when you start, when you finish, it must be at the moment of dawn or the moment when the sunset falls to the ground. Therefore, if you really want to refine this kind of high-quality elixir, Yao Lao will naturally look for a specific place, and will not refine it in this secret room he wants to build.

Therefore, the location of this secret room is actually very simple.

This is where Yao Lao practices every day.

Used to study medicinal materials.

Used for repeated experiments.

When the pill is ready, take it out to sell.

If you fail, keep studying.

It is just like what modern people call a workbench.

It doesn't matter whether it's dirty or not.

It doesn't matter whether it's messy or not.

The most important thing is to produce results.

As for the martial arts training ground, there is no need to mention it. Yao Lao is a Nine-turn Dou Zun. If he really practices martial arts, or to be more precise, practices fighting skills, he can shatter the mountains and rivers in front of him with one punch and one kick. After all, Nine-turn Dou Zun and Nine-star Dou Zun are not the same concept. Dou Sheng can open up a small world. Even if Yao Lao holds back and only uses his physical body without using his fighting spirit, anyone below the Dou Zun level will die with one punch. What he said to Yunshan in the original book when he was in the Yunlan Sect was not an exaggeration, but a realistic description. In his prime, Yao Lao only needed one word, and the Yunlan Sect would be eradicated by countless Dou Zongs who were willing to work for Yao Lao. Moreover, even if these Dou Zongs did not take action, the entire Yunlan Sect would be nothing but a slap in the face for Yao Lao. Otherwise, the other three pavilions would not be so honest. Even the most jumpy Lei Zun, after helping the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan, did not dare to point fingers at Yao Lao who was suspected of being dead, and still maintained an attitude of avoiding the topic.

So, it is called a martial arts training ground.

In fact, it can be regarded as a normal courtyard.

After all, Yao Lao is a very nostalgic person.

Compared to luxurious pavilions.

He still missed the courtyard where he lived with his parents when he was young.

So, if it weren’t for Master Feng stopping him back then.

Who knows, Yao Lao might come back to do a one-to-one remake.

As for nostalgia...

It can be seen from Han Feng...

Change to a normal master.

He went through great pains to lay the foundation for his apprentice.

He watched as his disciple himself ruined his own life.

He was exceptionally calm not to get so angry that he hung his apprentice up and beat him.

After all, as we all know, the resources for laying the foundation are often extremely expensive, and it's the same with everything, just like studying and taking exams. Although it's not easy to improve from 60 points to 80 points, it's far less difficult than improving from 95 points to 100 points. If you want to pursue that extreme, the resources you put into it may even exceed the total value of the resources you need to break through to the next major realm. However, doing so also has another advantage, that is, you will be invincible in the same realm, and the difficulty of moving forward will be relatively reduced.

It's like a safety rope when climbing a mountain.

People who want to be quick may go up without a safety rope.

Or just go up with a safety rope.

But for those who have a solid foundation, it is equivalent to tying a safety rope at each step to ensure that every landing point is stable and safe enough.

So, in the event of an accident.

People without safety ropes will fall to their death.

People carrying a small amount of safety ropes, or people carrying only one safety rope, can thus spread the impact of the fall and slow down the speed of falling, giving climbers more time to react, but if the climbers do not have time to react, they will still be half-crippled from the fall.

Only those who were hung with safety ropes.

Although it is very difficult to climb up.

Climbing is also slower.

But even if an accident happens, when you look down, you will see that every step you take is tied with a safety rope. Even if you grab at it with your eyes closed, you will always be able to grab some. You can even steady your body and continue climbing before you fall to the ground.

Compared with the former's death and disability.

The latter can eliminate danger without even landing.

This is the importance of foundation.

Looking around, there are so many geniuses in this world who want to lay a solid foundation but don't know how to do it. After all, they are independent climbers. When they embed a nail, they can only judge according to their own psychological expectations, to what extent is considered standard and to what extent is too much or too little. They don't even know where to drive the nail and then tie the safety rope to it to be effective. On Han Feng's side, Yao Lao, as a person who has been through it, not only pointed out these details to him, but even helped him drive the nails in personally to ensure that the measure was sufficient. It can only be said that the gap between people is too big.

However, Han Feng was not satisfied.

Some even thought that Yao Lao was intentionally delaying his progress.

Wasting his time.

He did not realize at all that on the path of cultivation, a moment's speed cannot determine your whole life, and only the one who laughs last is the real winner.

Therefore, after seeing Han Feng secretly pulling out the nails.

Yao Lao did not catch Han Feng and beat him to death.

I really am doing this out of consideration for your sake.

Later, Han Feng was reminded several times to calm down.

Han Feng also has a pig brain.

If he only thought about it, he would understand.

Why didn't Yao Lao let him settle down before? That's because Yao Lao helped him build his foundation!

Yao Lao knows what’s going on!

Know that he doesn't need to settle down!

Why did Yao Lao let him settle down in the later period?

Even if he has nothing to hide.

His foundation was also destroyed.

Of course, not much was destroyed.

In short, Yao Lao was no longer sure.

That's why he was given a steady hand.

Normally, even if Han Feng had ulterior motives, he should have understood after hearing these words that he was being suspected, or that his current situation was not very good and he should be honest. This would also facilitate subsequent actions. However, Han Feng chose to go against Yao Lao. The more Yao Lao asked him to calm down, the less he calmed down. He even used some radical forbidden techniques to improve his realm. What was the difference between this and forcing something to grow faster?

all in all.

Although Han Feng's stupidity is beyond words.

But Yao Lao’s nostalgia is indeed a bit excessive.

So, back on topic.

It is understandable that Yao Lao wanted to replicate the courtyard of that time on a one-to-one basis.

But from the perspective of Master Feng.

how?

Is our Xingyun Pavilion so poor?

The master of a pavilion!

A Nine-turn Dou Zun who controls dozens of empires and hundreds of Dou Zongs!

Live in an ordinary courtyard?

Although not impossible.

But if you do this, what should we at Xingyun Pavilion do?

The proper ceremony must be maintained!

As one of the major forces in Zhongzhou!

Keeping a low profile won’t work!

In other words, this is not the way to play the game of keeping a low profile!

Normal hiding one's strength and biding one's time means that you don't show up, but you must live in this pavilion, so that the outside world cannot figure out your situation and the background of our Xingyun Pavilion. Then you can show up from time to time to let others know that you are still alive.

This is called keeping a low profile.

If you insist on being an ascetic.

Outsiders would instead think that Xingyun Pavilion was weak.

What's more, the reason why the people below follow you is because they want to live a good life, or you can say that they want to eat delicious food and drink delicious food.

You live a poor and hard life here.

Although you are happy.

But those Dou Zong, Dou Huang, Dou Wang and other disciples below may have complaints against you. After all, if they are extravagant, it will be shown that they do not respect you as the Pavilion Master. The people above have not become arrogant yet, but the people below have become arrogant first. They are not calm and those flatterers may take the opportunity to criticize them. Over time, Xingyun Pavilion will naturally become disunited. After all, we are not building a small force that has only existed for a hundred years. As long as you and I are not dead, Xingyun Pavilion can't say that it will prosper for ten thousand years, but it will at least prosper for a thousand years. So the roots must be stable.

What's more, there are many empires below.

Just because someone doesn't dare to ask for it openly does not mean that they won't blackmail him secretly.

Over time.

Even if the top management is stabilized.

It will also lose its base.

Therefore, under the strong suggestion of Venerable Feng, Yao Lao still lived in this luxurious pavilion. As for the small courtyard that Yao Lao liked, it was not impossible to build it. Venerable Feng later gave Yao Lao a compromise idea. To put it bluntly, Yao Lao was allowed to plant a medicinal field by himself, and then put the small courtyard nearby. After all, Yao Lao himself was an alchemist. Even if someone visited him, Yao Lao could use the excuse of taking care of the spiritual medicine to explain why he lived in this small courtyard, that is, he loved to take care of the spiritual medicine and liked to study the art of alchemy. This was not only a personal hobby, but also could give the senior executives of Xingyun Pavilion a certain enthusiasm to come. In the final analysis, living in a luxurious building The pavilion is sending a signal of stability to others, meaning that everyone has worked hard along the way, it is time to eat and drink, and I, the pavilion master, live in such a good house, it is okay for you to be extravagant and indulge yourself. As for the research in the medicine field, it is sending a signal to others to continue to make progress, meaning that although we have stabilized now, I don’t reject extravagance, but I still have the idea of ​​making progress and want to go to the next step. As for whether I can succeed and whether it is a matter of hard work, that is not certain, but I have made it clear that the current Xingyun Pavilion has not yet reached its peak prosperity, and it will depend on whether you can maintain a certain fighting spirit in the future.

After all, if you just let it go.

After I reached a higher level.

After expanding this base bigger and bigger.

There will definitely be new people joining in.

The basic plate of profit sharing.

Suppose I can become a fighting saint.

The status of Dou Zong will naturally decline.

Instead, he was replaced by Dou Zun.

You will gradually be marginalized because of your lack of effort.

This is the advice Feng Xian gave to Yao Lao.

Yao Lao also accepted it with great trust.

So, even though they entered the gate, the maid at the gate did not stop Lu Yuan even though she saw him, because Mu Qingluan had the authority to enter without reporting. However, Mu Qingluan did not take Lu Yuan to the main building in the middle, but headed towards the direction of the medicine field. By the way, she introduced Lu Yuan, who had not been back for several years, "Although Uncle is usually there in the main building, not all of them are there. Moreover, considering the current reality, Junior Brother Xiao Yan is in seclusion there. Since the facilities in the main building are better, Uncle is most likely taking care of the spiritual medicines in the medicine field..."

Because the medicinal field was opened up later.

Although Lu Yuan had been to Xingyun Pavilion before.

But Xingyun Pavilion did not have this facility at that time.

In addition, after Yao Lao became the Fighting Saint.

It was also after Yao Lao returned.

The construction of Xingyun Pavilion took several months.

The original pattern was widened again.

By the way, they also took over a lot of territory from Wanjian Pavilion and Huangquan Pavilion.

of course.

Speaking of this, we have to mention Fenglei Pavilion.

Fenglei Pavilion also took advantage of the opportunity.

Bit off a piece of meat from Huangquan Pavilion.

In short, Huangquan Pavilion is the worst.

The second is Wanjian Pavilion.

In addition, existing personal connections are leveraged.

Therefore, including this modified main building and the medicine field at the back, they were all added later. Although Mu Qingluan knew that Lu Yuan was an alchemist and a Dou Di, it was quite impolite to use mental detection here. Yao Lao was Lu Yuan's teacher after all, and Lu Yuan was not that arrogant. As for why it was said to be a high probability, it was obvious that one only needed to ask the maid at the door. In fact, it was because Yao Lao's realm was too high, and there was no need for him to tell these maids where he wanted to go. What's more, Yao Lao had always been a relatively independent person and did not enjoy being served by others. Therefore, Mu Qingluan could only estimate the approximate direction. After all, she did not live here and could not say for sure.

However, Mu Qingluan's estimate is still reliable.

There were no accidents or surprises.

Instead, he found Yao Lao very easily and directly.

of course.

At this moment, Yao Lao is studying the soil in the medicine field.

It’s easy to find.

But it was covered in dust.

There really is no image at all.
