I made the entire cultivation world cry

Chapter 62 Breakthrough
After three days of raging, the blizzard finally showed signs of decline.

In the tortoise shell formation, Xin Wushuang spent his time meditating and practicing except for eating. Jiang Yi sat cross-legged and practiced for half a day. After absorbing a piece of spiritual wood, he fell asleep and has not woken up since then.

Only Shen Puning was left to take care of Wanli, Baozhu and Hongli, and also to cook, practice and sleep occasionally.

During the three days when the wind and snow blocked the door, Shen Puning still taught Sanzai to read and write as usual. Hongli, who joined the class, showed great eagerness to learn and intelligence.

In just three days, he had learned the names of all the spiritual medicines on the recipes of the Shiling Pill and the Chengling Pill.

Wanli was always aloof. Shen Puning didn't dare to ask whether he had learned it or how much he had learned, for fear that Wanli would give her a blow.

Baozhu was still the same, lazy and greedy, and was beaten three times a day.

"Xiao Hongli, do you have any brothers or sisters like you? Introduce them to me."

Shen Puning grabbed Hongli's two claws, stood it up and twisted it, love overflowing from his eyes.

Huagu's intelligence lies in her willingness to learn and her diligence in making up for her shortcomings, while Hongli's intelligence lies in her ability to understand things quickly and to draw inferences from one instance.

Hongli helped her light the fire and cook these days. She only burned the pot the first time, but she got better and better at it afterwards.

Now she only needs to prepare the ingredients, and Hongli can cook a perfect pot of porridge by herself, with the proportion of seasonings and the heat of various ingredients just right.

It is possible that it will be able to refine the elixir independently in the future. Only at this moment did Shen Puning finally understand Jiang Yi's happiness!

Hongli pulled her claws out of Shen Puning's hand and puffed out her chest. She was a fox that wanted to refine the top-grade Chengling Pill. How could cooking be difficult for her?

Only if it passes this level sooner can the master teach it the real way of alchemy. How can it succeed without hard work!
When the long-lost light of heaven shone through the dome formation, Xin Wushuang seemed to sense something and woke up on his own.

"Hongli, go wake up Ayi."

Hongli ran to Jiang Yi and stretched out its claws tentatively. This time it did not feel the invisible air. It was delighted, knowing that this meant its master trusted it more.

Hongli threw herself into Jiang Yi's arms. As she breathed, she felt her muscles and bones inexplicably relax. She suddenly felt very sleepy and wanted to sleep.

At this moment, a green spiritual light suddenly burst out, and Jiang Yi's aura continued to rise. Her own vitality and wood spiritual energy blended seamlessly, flowing through her meridians, making her complexion more rosy and her blood full.

Shen Puning and Xin Wushuang showed surprise on their faces. They both knew that it was the true essence. Jiang Yi broke through to the seventh level of Qi training and officially entered the late stage of Qi training.

When the three of them first met, Jiang Yi was still at the sixth level of Qi training. After just over a month in the sect, Jiang Yi broke through to the seventh level.

Such speed and talent are enviable, but the key is that I have never seen her work hard, which makes me even more jealous!

Xin Wushuang, who was also at the seventh level of Qi training, felt a sense of urgency in his heart and urged himself to work harder.

Shen Puning was in a good mood and didn't think too much about it. He was just a little curious about what kind of martial arts Jiang Yixiu was practicing. It seemed that he relied on sleeping instead of meditation.

But this is a monk's private matter, and it would be offensive to ask about it casually.

"I'm so hungry~~How many days have I slept?" Jiang Yi slowly woke up and asked lazily.

"It's been two days. You should stabilize your cultivation first. We'll eat before we leave."

After listening to it for two days, Jiang Yi instantly disappeared from all sleepiness.

"Hua Gu!"

Jiang Yi stood up and rushed out of the formation, and Hongli, who was originally pulling her clothes, was knocked to the ground.

Seeing that her master didn't even turn back, Hongli slept on the ground sadly and lost the strength to get up.

How is it inferior to that cloud? Isn't its fur and shape beautiful?

In the cedar forest, the traces of the original battle had been completely buried by the wind and snow, and Jiang Yi looked around for Hua Gu.

A strong wind blew behind his head. Jiang Yi raised his lips and turned around. A lump of ice hit his chest, shaking off the snow and wind, revealing a white and soft body like the clouds and mist.

"Hua Gu, have you gotten bigger? And heavier? Why do you feel like shaved ice now?"

Hua Gu didn't care and just twisted and rubbed herself in Jiang Yi's arms, acting coquettishly, very excited.

Jiang Yi used the divine eye technique to check.

[Lan Yao: Upper Mortal Level]

【Attributes: Water, Thunder, Wind】

[Cultivation: Eighth level of Qi training]

[Spells: Rain (Low Level, Proficient), Water Blade (Low Level, Proficient), Water Arrow (Low Level, Mastered), Thunderbolt (Intermediate Level, Proficient), Bone-Crushing Wind (Intermediate Level, Beginner)]

"The mark of the wind blade has changed... Could it be that you have learned the bone-breaking wind?" Hua Gu flew up into the air, and as the clouds moved, eighteen ice-blue wind blades disappeared into thin air, turning into a gust of wind that swept through the pine forest. Three cedar trees turned into flying wood chips in an instant, silently.

This power is much stronger than the mastery-level wind blade, and this wind is invisible and silent and can exist continuously. Hua Gu can even control this wind to harvest back and forth as long as its spiritual power is sufficient to support it.

"Hua Gu, you're amazing! This is the first mass destruction spell you can cast independently. It seems that the spiritual and physical energy consumed is not as great as the thunderbolt."

Jiang Yi praised loudly, and Hua Gu threw herself into Jiang Yi's arms again, her body showing a shy pink color.

In fact, it was almost able to master the ability to transform water arrows and water blades into ice arrows and ice blades, but it felt a strange power in the blizzard, and its demon species could not withstand it, so it gave up on comprehending the ice attribute.

"Have you developed a certain resistance to the icy air here?"

Hua Gu moved her body, and she no longer needed the anti-cold talisman. The cold wind and cold air here could not hurt her.

"That's good. Although I've been sleeping these past two days, I still feel uneasy."

So she absorbed the second-grade spiritual wood in advance, and with the help of Laziness and Sleeping Immortal Technique, she broke through to the seventh level of Qi training in one fell swoop. This speed was beyond her expectations.

It might be because she had been too lazy recently. After all, she didn't walk the road herself, nor did she cook the meal herself this time. It was Hongli who was looking for the water arrow frog, and it was Puning and Wushuang who were picking herbs. She also broke her promise to Zhao Cangyun.

The gradually surging true energy in her body made Jiang Yi feel much more at ease. In this way, she could exert the full strength of both the Green Shadow Sword and the Golden Leaf Fan.

With the help of Hua Gu and Hong Li, they can fight even if they encounter cultivators in the early stage of foundation building or demons.

If you can't win the battle, you can always escape by flying away on your sword.

Jiang Yi brought Hua Gu back to the camp. After dinner, the three of them counted the spiritual herbs they had picked so far and those they had obtained from the two people before.

Shen Puning compared the list and said, "If we don't plan to collect more, we only need to go to Hanpo Valley to dig three more Jade Bone Ginseng and pick three Earth Dragon Tendons."

Jiang Yi nodded without saying anything. After collecting the tortoise shell flag, he packed up and set off.

This time, Jiang Yi was unusually diligent and controlled the Green Shadow Sword by himself. With a thought, the Green Shadow Sword cut a line of snow shadow and disappeared into the horizon at lightning speed.

The speed was so fast that even when Xin Wushuang used the wind spirit to drive the Swift Wind Feather, he couldn't even touch the tail light left by the Green Shadow Sword.

Moreover, the Qingying Sword can cut through the cold wind from high altitudes, and you won't be frozen and numb all over without a shield. Apart from the fact that you have to control it yourself, it's pretty good.

The three of them passed over a frozen lake on a plain, where snow wolves rushed to hunt and fish gathered in schools and hibernated in the deep rivers.

The journey was not far, and in less than an hour, they flew over Hanpo Valley.

In the valley, the hundred-foot-high ice cliffs hang like jade curtains, the jade branches are covered with frost, and the frost flowers are shrouded in mist. The mist is like curling green smoke, filling the deep valley.

Icicles hang upside down on the cliffs, the cold pond is frozen, and undercurrents surge in the depths.

"Earth dragon tendons are often found in the gullies near the cold pond."

Jiang Yi had already memorized the Hundred Materia Medica, and with a reminder, Xin Wushuang controlled the Swift Feather to rush diagonally downwards, clearing away the damp and cold fog, startling a group of ice crystal butterflies unique to the cold pond, and landing steadily on the ground.

"Ayi, you should be on guard while Wushuang and I look for the earth dragon tendons."

Shen Puning arrived shortly afterwards and handed Jiang Yi a new cold-resistant talisman. She was very impressed with Jiang Yi's fighting ability.

Having learned from the previous experience, Xin Wushuang did not release Wanli this time. He nodded to Jiang Yi and went to search around the cold pond.

The fog in Hanpo Valley is very thick, and the cold is stronger than that in the cedar forest. It can suppress the true essence of the cultivators and interfere with their spiritual consciousness. Even the anti-cold talisman cannot resist much.

This mist is suitable for Hua Gu to inhale and exhale. Maybe it can allow her to absorb ice-attribute spiritual power from it. Even if she cannot learn ice-attribute spells, it would be good to increase her resistance to the cold air.

Hua Gu felt like a fish in water here, but Hong Li couldn't bear it anymore. The flame on her tail was eroded by the cold mist and she trembled.

In desperation, Jiang Yi had to put away Hongli and only take Hua Gu with him to patrol the surroundings.

In addition to the ice crystal butterflies, there are also large beasts in the Hanpo Valley, the Frost Armored Bear, a monster with dual attributes of ice and earth. It is over two meters tall and is covered with thick ice crystal armor all over its body, making it difficult to deal with.

As he walked, a cold wind blew in his face, and Jiang Yi suddenly felt someone on the side.

"who!"

The Qingying Sword clanged out, and Jiang Yi thrust forward with the sword. When he broke through the cold fog and saw the figure clearly, Jiang Yi's whole body shook, and he suddenly withdrew his strength and froze in place, with the long sword in his hand humming non-stop.

The man was dressed in white, his frost-covered eyebrows were like swords, and the cold light in his eyes remained. A strand of white hair born from his ice spirit root was sandwiched between his black hair, carrying the cold sword intent. The sword in his hand had not yet been unsheathed, but it had already made the world here feel like it had fallen into a cold pond.

"Do you really have to let me come and pick you up?"

Jiang Yi opened his eyes in surprise, his throat tightened and he couldn't even utter the word "mother".
