Martial Arts and Longevity: Starting from the Spiritual Beast Picture

Chapter 364 I want to become a Taoist partner with you
October is the beginning of winter.

The weather in Xuanyuan Continent rarely changes, and there are no four seasons in various places. However, because many monks came from the mortal world, they brought customs similar to those of the previous Chinese civilization.

Therefore, the solar terms in the mortal world are still used, and they are also used to record certain periods of the year.

After morning class, Zhao Lin came to the library to read books.

Knowledge is power, and this sentence is also applicable to the world of immortality.

The same is true for fighting, and the same is true for spiritual practice.

Elder Chuan Gong once told a story: A long time ago, a foundation-building monk saw a strange bird's nest on a high mountain.

The bird's nest was square, and inside it was a monster bird that looked like a crane.

The demon bird has red markings on its blue feathers and a long white pointed beak.

The foundation-building monk didn't recognize the demon bird and thought that its nest was so special that it must not be a mortal thing, so he spent a lot of effort to catch it.

After he brought the demon bird back to the sect and asked about it, he found out that the demon bird's name was Bifangniao. It was a second-level demon beast with a very strong temper. Once caught, it would not eat or drink, and would die from the world.

Therefore, the Bifan bird itself has no value, and it cannot be trained into a spiritual bird.

However, the nest of this kind of bird is made of dozens of rare spiritual grasses, which is extremely precious, and its value is even more than the Shenglong Pill that can assist the foundation-building monks to break through to the Purple Mansion Realm!

When the foundation-building monk learned the truth, he couldn't help but feel very upset. He immediately returned to the original place to look for the bird's nest, only to find that someone had already climbed there first.

If he is knowledgeable and knows the benefits of square bird's nests, he will definitely not make the mistake of buying a casket for a pearl or losing a watermelon and picking up sesame seeds.

"Junior Brother Zhao should be in the library. Junior Sister, please wait for a moment while I go find him."

Zhao Lin walked out of the library and saw fellow disciple Dong Lingcheng walking over accompanied by a young girl.

The girl is extremely tall, even taller than Dong Lingcheng. She wears a lavender skirt and has an outstanding appearance. She has almond-shaped eyes and peach cheeks, and her eyebrows are flying sideways. She is pretty and has a sassy air.

Zhao Lin felt that the woman was kind-hearted, so he couldn't help but look at her twice. He was about to pass by when he was stopped by Dong Lingcheng.

"Junior Brother Zhao, I was looking for you."

Zhao Lin was slightly startled, stopped, cupped his hands and said, "Senior Brother Dong."

"This is a disciple of Xiniuzhou Lingdao Academy. His surname is Li Mingzhen."

Dong Lingcheng introduced the girl next to him to Zhao Lin, and then said with a smile: "She made a special trip to see Junior Brother Zhao."

After speaking, he blinked with an amused look on his face.

Li Zhen?

Hearing this name, Zhao Lin's heart moved. When he visited the Li family last time, he had inquired that the head of the Li family, Li Chenglin, had three sons and two daughters. The eldest son Li Yuanyou and the second daughter Li Zhen had talents in cultivation.

Sanshan County is in Xiniuzhou, and the girl’s name is Li Zhen. She is most likely from the Li family in Sanshan County...

What is she asking for herself?
Zhao Lin's mind was spinning very fast, he looked at the woman in front of him again, secretly became wary, and said calmly: "I've seen Senior Sister Li, I wonder what I can do for you?"

Li Zhen's face turned red. He avoided Zhao Lin's eyes and said softly, "I have something to ask Junior Brother Zhao. Is it convenient for you now?"

Before Zhao Lin could answer, Dong Lingcheng interjected: "We have a reception room in the Lingdao Temple. Just go there."

Zhao Lin shook his head and said: "No need, I still have something to do. If you have anything to say, just say it here."

If this woman is a member of the Li family, although she may not dare to openly commit murder, as long as she shouts "indecent", she will not be able to explain clearly, so it is better not to be in the same room.

Neither Dong Lingcheng nor Li Zhen expected that Zhao Lin would flatly refuse, and they were stunned for a while.

When the disciples entering and exiting the Library Pavilion saw Zhao Lin and the other three, they were all attracted by Li Zhen's appearance and stopped to watch.

"Who is this female nun? She is so pretty."

"Not only pretty, but also tall. Look at those legs..."

"Looking at his appearance, he is also a disciple of Qigong. His cultivation level is at the ninth level of Qi refining, but it is not simple!"

Dong Lingcheng didn't know why Zhao Lin's attitude was so cold. He gave him a strange look and said, "There is a pavilion over there, why don't you talk over there?"

Zhao Lin thought that there should be no danger in public, so he nodded and said: "Okay." Li Zhen breathed a sigh of relief, gave Dong Lingcheng a grateful look, and then followed Zhao Lin into the pavilion.

Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.

Zhao Lin didn't look sideways, said nothing, and kept a certain distance from the other party.

Li Zhen waited for a while, but when Zhao Lin didn't speak, he finally couldn't help but lightly opened his lips and said, "Junior Brother Zhao, how old are you?"

"33."

Zhao Lin replied lukewarmly.

"I'm one year older than you."

Li Zhen said a little shyly.

"Oh."

Zhao Lin responded casually, thinking about the other party's intention.

"Do you know why I came to you?"

"I don't know. If you have anything to say, please just say it."

"I am from Sanshan County, and my brother's name is Li Yuanyou. You saved my brother in the Yinfeng Realm, and I am here to express my gratitude."

grateful?

Zhao Lin sneered in his heart. Last time, in order to "thank" him, the Li family sent a foundation-building monk and three late-stage Qi refining monks to chase him.

If he hadn't been proficient in spells and taken precautions in advance, he would have died long ago.

Today, the Li family sent someone to come to the door again. I don’t know if it was a demonstration or another intention.

Thinking of this, Zhao Lin said solemnly: "Just do it casually, there is no need to thank you."

"A life-saving favor must be repaid."

Li Zhen said very seriously, then took out a small lock bag from his waist, held it in both hands and offered it, "A small gift is not respectful."

Zhao Lin didn't even look at it, and said coldly: "No need!"

He didn't dare to collect the things from the Li family, who knew what tricks had been done inside.

Li Zhen's face froze, and he took back the lock bag in embarrassment. He didn't know what to say for a moment, and frowned slightly, seeming a little confused about Zhao Lin's attitude.

"It's okay, I'll go first."

Zhao Lin did not want to have contact with the Li family. One day, when he was strong enough, he would go back and kill all Li Chenglin and the few monks who were chasing him to satisfy his hatred.

"and many more……"

Seeing that Zhao Lin was about to leave, Li Zhen said anxiously: "Junior brother Zhao, stay here. I still have something to say."

Zhao Lin stopped and said impatiently: "Then tell me quickly, I have to go back to practice."

Li Zhen gritted his teeth and said, "My mother gave birth to me when she was very old and passed away soon after. At that time, my father had just taken over as the clan leader and was busy with affairs and had no time to raise us."

"So my brother and I have had a deep understanding of each other since I was a child, so when I learned about his disappearance, I felt like the sky was falling."

"At that time, I had just started practicing, and I had some talent and good looks, so I made a vow that I would give my life to whoever could find my brother."

Speaking of this, Li Zhen's chest rose and fell, as if he had made a great determination, "Junior Brother Zhao, I want to...become a Taoist companion with you."

　I'm very sorry that the update has been suspended for so long, which is very hurtful to the readers and the author. However, it is indeed due to force majeure that the update was stopped.

　　I came back last week, and I feel very rusty after not writing for many days. I don’t know how to start writing.

　　Now I have finally started writing, and I am slowly finding the feeling. I will continue to update in the future, and I hope you will support me.

　　In addition, I saw some people saying that the pace of the novel is too slow, and I hope that the protagonist will build his foundation soon.
　　Thank you.
