Rebuild the Xiuxian Family

Li Chenyang was highly perceptive, Zhang Que was quick-witted, and Yun Ruoxue came from a family of cultivators. The three of them gathered together to discuss the morning's lecture. After some discussion, they understood more than 80% of the content, if not completely.

All three were very satisfied and happy with the result.

"Thanks to Senior Sister Yun and Junior Brother Li, otherwise I wouldn't have had such a great harvest," Zhang Que said sincerely.

“Junior Brother Zhang is too modest. Your understanding has been quite enlightening for me.”

"Yes, and this idea actually came from Senior Brother Zhang."

Zhang Que smiled and said, "How about we agree on a time each day to exchange and discuss what we've learned that day? What do you two think?"

“Okay, this will help us lay a solid foundation and will be of great help to our future cultivation.” Yun Ruoxue, who looked cold, agreed without hesitation.

Everything in excess is as bad as deficiency!

Despite Yun Ruoxue's exceptional talent, which ranks among the top in this group of talented disciples, her talent has become a stumbling block on her path of cultivation!
Her mutated Heavenly Ice Spiritual Root, coupled with her Nine Nether Cold Body, caused her to suffer from the torment of a deep, bone-chilling cold power every day.

This is also why, despite being born into a Nascent Soul family in Yunzhou, she came to Mingzhou to join the Tongtian Sect – hoping to find a way to solve her own problems within the Tongtian Sect.

Yun Ruoxue already had an idea about this.

That is to demonstrate one's extraordinary talent and aptitude, thereby attracting the attention and importance of the sect!
Therefore, in her view, Zhang Que's method was very beneficial to her own plan, so she naturally wouldn't refuse it.

Li Chenyang did not object, because he was fascinated by the profound cultivation and wanted to learn more. He also found it quite comfortable to be with the two of them.

“I remember that Junior Brother Li’s residence is quite quiet and secluded, and it’s not too far from Senior Sister Yun’s residence. How about we set up our meeting place in Junior Brother Li’s courtyard?”

Zhang Que looked at Li Chenyang with a questioning gaze. If he didn't agree, then they could move to his place. However, this would make things difficult for the other two.

Because his residence was some distance away from the two of them.

"We will do as Junior Brother/Senior Brother Zhang says."

Li Chenyang and Yun Ruoxue had no objections to this, and they knew in their hearts that Zhang Que was taking care of them, so they liked him even more.

"After we return to Qingmiao Peak today, let's go to Junior Brother Li's residence together."

"it is good."

The three then went their separate ways to process what they had just learned and take a break to recharge for the afternoon's lectures.

Previously, when the three were talking, other disciples wanted to join in, but they were all refused, regardless of their status or aptitude.

The reason is simple: too many people would only lead to chaos, and they were advised to find people themselves to share their feelings and experiences.

Some people, after being rejected, felt quite embarrassed, snorted coldly, and left in a huff; others followed their example, approaching their fellow disciples and discussing the matter in private.

Perhaps not every disciple can be as candid as Li Chenyang, Zhang Que, and the other two, sharing all their gains. However, it is indeed a good thing to be able to absorb beneficial insights during the exchange.

Not only can it solidify the foundation, but it can also deepen the friendship between each other during the exchange.

When Li Zhirui discovered that Li Chenyang, Zhang Que, and Yun Ruoxue were gathered together, talking and studying together, a smile involuntarily appeared on his face.

He was even more pleased when this action inspired other disciples to imitate it.

He really likes this atmosphere of self-effort and hard work, which is a good thing for them as well.

Therefore, Li Zhirui devoted more effort to his lectures in the afternoon.

……

Time flew by, and the first day of lectures soon came to an end.

The guiding spirit ship arrived on time, escorted all the disciples back to Qingmiao Peak, and then hurriedly departed.

After having dinner at the small canteen in District A, Li Chenyang, Zhang Que, and Yun Ruoxue went directly to Li Chenyang's residence and sat on the ground in the courtyard.

First, everyone shared their understanding and thoughts, and then they pointed out what they didn't understand.

If none of the three people know, then they will discuss it and try to resolve it.

"It's already quite late, and we have to get up early tomorrow, so let's discuss these confusing points tomorrow." Zhang Que glanced at the sky and ended the day's conversation.

The other two then realized what was happening.

They were all ambitious and pursued lofty ideals, so once they started talking, they completely forgot about time.

If he hadn't spoken up, it probably would have continued.

Li Chenyang saw Zhang Que and Yun Ruoxue out of the courtyard, and only after watching them leave did he turn around and close the door.

"Senior Sister Yun, be careful on the road."

"Junior Brother Zhang is the same."

After exchanging a brief greeting, the two parted ways at a fork in the road.

And this is just the beginning!
In the time that followed, they never thought of giving up, meeting and communicating every day without fail, rain or shine.

Among their disciples, some gave up halfway, some had big arguments, and very few were able to persevere like them!
……

Sun rises and moon sets, time flies.

Three months have passed in the blink of an eye.

At this time, Li Chenyang, Zhang Que, and Yun Ruoxue had completely mastered the basic body-strengthening method and the basic breathing method.

Besides the three of them, there were a few other disciples who were progressing a little slower.

So on this day, Li Zhirui deliberately ended his lecture an hour early, saying, "I'm sure everyone is eager to begin cultivating, right?"

“Among you, some have already gone ahead!”

At first, the disciples couldn't understand why he suddenly stopped, but after he said those words, they understood.

At the same time, his eyes darted around the crowd, trying to find the fellow student the teacher had mentioned.

Most of the attention was focused on Li Chenyang, Zhang Que, and Yun Ruoxue.

After all, everyone has seen how hard they've worked during this time.

Then, Li Zhirui called out the names of seven disciples.

As expected, there were the three people everyone thought of, but to everyone's surprise, among these seven people, there was actually a handyman disciple, Hu Yuan!

Apart from him, the other six were all inner disciples.

Therefore, at this moment, Hu Yuan received the most attention.

If it weren't for Li Zhirui's presence, the lecture hall would probably have been in complete chaos. In fact, Li Zhirui was also somewhat surprised by this suddenly appearing handyman disciple.

Although he had focused most of his attention on Li Chenyang, Zhang Que, and Yun Ruoxue, it didn't mean he was unaware of the situation of the other disciples.

Prior to this, he had never discovered any of the menial disciples who had mastered the two basic techniques to such a profound level.

Hu Yuan seemed to have appeared out of nowhere!
However, Li Zhirui didn't care much and didn't think much of it. Maybe the other person just suddenly had an epiphany? That possibility wasn't out of the question.

"The seven of you will practice the basic body-tempering method once, and then begin to practice the basic breathing method. I will guide you to experience how to refine spiritual energy into your own mana after absorbing it."

He paused for a moment before saying, "If you have good comprehension, perhaps you can take this opportunity to step into the world of cultivation and become a Qi Refining cultivator!"

The first wisp of magical power is not so easy to refine. Li Zhirui's approach has reduced the difficulty for them considerably and can be considered a reward for these outstanding disciples.

At the same time, he also intended to stimulate the other disciples and make them feel competitive.

really!

As soon as Li Zhirui finished speaking, all the disciples became excited.

Formally embarking on the path of cultivation, becoming a cultivator!
This was a wish they had cherished for a long time, but now they could only watch others have this opportunity.

The seven people arrived at the front, where Li Zhirui had cleared a large open space, enough for them to simultaneously use their body-tempering techniques.

A moment later, the seven of them finished their practice almost simultaneously.

"Sit cross-legged, close your eyes, feel the warm current within your body, practice breathing exercises, and imagine yourself slowly guiding this warm current..."

When Li Zhirui's voice rang out, they followed suit without hesitation.

At the same time, the spiritual energy from the outside world, under his control, is gentle and orderly, and enters the bodies of different disciples according to their respective spiritual root attributes.

Then, this spiritual energy followed the heat flow and traveled through the eight extraordinary meridians in their bodies.

This is the simplest and most basic method of operation. After being tempered by the meridians, spiritual energy will be transformed into shallow magical power.

Finally, circulate this wisp of magical power into your dantian, and you will have completed the transformation from a mortal to a cultivator!

However, even though these seven disciples were the best among this group of disciples, it was still quite difficult for them to cultivate magical power on their first attempt.

Therefore, not long after, several disciples failed.

In the end, only Li Chenyang, Zhang Que, Yun Ruoxue, and the handyman disciple Hu Yuan were still working hard and persevering.

"puff!"

But soon, Yun Ruoxue failed and suffered a backlash. Suddenly, she coughed up a mouthful of blood, and her aura instantly weakened.

This scene stunned the other disciples. How could failing to refine magical power have such serious consequences?!
Li Zhirui had anticipated this. He knew that Yun Ruoxue's constitution had problems. Before the naturally generated Netherworld Cold Power after linking the Nine Netherworld Cold Body and the Heavenly Ice Spiritual Root was resolved, her cultivation path would be extremely difficult!

"I can represent the sect to completely resolve the problem within your body."

Upon hearing this, Yun Ruoxue suddenly looked up, her eyes filled with intense longing.

"However, in doing so, you will miss an opportunity, but of course, it will not affect your aptitude in any way."

The words that followed quickly calmed her down. She forced herself to stand up, bowed, and asked, "May I ask, teacher, what is this opportunity you speak of?"

"Your current problem is that your Dao body and spiritual root are too compatible, and under their influence, they generate the power of the Nine Netherworlds."

Unbeknownst to them, Li Zhirui had placed a barrier between the two of them to prevent others from hearing the conversation.

"This is a rather powerful force, and it will be of great help to future cultivation."

“If I were to take action now and completely resolve the problem within your body, it would disrupt the balance between your spiritual root and your Dao body, making it difficult to recover in the future. You might very well lose the power of the Nine Netherworld Cold.”

A struggle appeared between Yun Ruoxue's brows. She was unwilling to give up this opportunity, but this opportunity had become an obstacle on her path of cultivation!

It has reached the point where cultivation is impossible unless it is eradicated.

"Teacher, is there any other way?" she asked tentatively.

Li Zhirui nodded and said, "I can seal the Nine Netherworld Cold Power within you, so that you are no longer affected by it, without disrupting the balance between your spiritual root and your Dao body."

"Please, teacher, seal it away!" Yun Ruoxue said impatiently.

"Don't rush to agree. This approach also comes at a price. You should know that even if you seal away the existing Nine Nether Cold Power due to your own reasons, it will still be generated after a period of time."

"At that time, you will suffer even more painful torment!"

After absorbing spiritual energy and magical power, the resulting Nine Yin Nether Cold Power will become even more powerful.

"Please, teacher, seal it!"

Faced with such consequences, Yun Ruoxue did not hesitate or waver at all. She immediately bowed and asked Li Zhirui to take action.

Li Zhirui simply pointed at her heart from a distance, and a ray of spiritual light instantly entered it, sealing away all the chilling power that had accumulated within her body over the years.

"Baojianfeng comes from the sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from bitter cold!"

"Only after you break through to the Loose Immortal realm can you fully master this power. At that time, it will no longer bring you pain, but will become a sharp weapon in your hands."

Yun Ruoxue felt an unprecedented sense of ease and comfort in her body. She bowed deeply and said, "Thank you, teacher! I will remember your words forever!"

-

At this point, half an hour had passed in the outside world.

All the disciples were very curious about what Li Zhirui and Yun Ruoxue had talked about.

"Do you think Senior Sister Yun will be unable to cultivate at all in this state?" a disciple suddenly asked.

The scene of her vomiting blood just now resurfaced in everyone's minds.

They had never seen, or even heard of, anyone suffering such a severe backlash during their first attempt to refine magical power.

Therefore, they naturally assumed that Yun Ruoxue had a serious physical problem and was unable to cultivate.

"I don't think so. The teacher should have a solution, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to talk for so long."

"That's right. Even if the teacher can't solve it, there's still the sect, isn't there? With so many seniors and powerful figures in the sect, surely they can solve this kind of problem?"

What they didn't know was that if this teacher couldn't solve the problem, then no one in the entire Tongtian Sect could.

Just as the disciples were speculating and even offering suggestions, the restriction was lifted. (End of Chapter)
