As a result, it is possible to achieve success.

Heiyang pointed the camera at Xiaohuo who was wiping her tears on the bed and said helplessly: "Your daughter is crying here looking for her mother."

"You've been bullying Xiao Huo secretly."

Hongli snorted: "You are still a father!"

"How can I do that?"

Heiyang rubbed his brows and asked: "When you encounter this kind of situation normally, how do you comfort this child?"

"Uh……"

Hongli tilted her head: "You won't cry if you knock me out?"

Hei Yang: "???"

"Heh, I'm just kidding. When Xiao Huo was with me, where did he ever cry?"

"Ah yes, yes, you are the best."

Heiyang smiled helplessly: "Change your hairstyle? A single ponytail!"

"Hehe, sister is pretty, right?"

Hongli pushed up her sunglasses, her eye circles slightly red as she asked, "Give me your comments?"

"Eh? A handsome one?"

"Bah! You should say, Hongli! How can I live without you!"

"Ah this..."

"come back earlier."

"know."

Hongli looked up, and Elder Huo's words emerged in her mind.

"You are still young. Haste makes waste. You can wait for a few years at most..."

"Ah, but I don't want to wait any longer. I've been waiting for twelve years..."

Hongli smiled slightly: "Besides, I don't want him to wait any longer. I don't want to be the one who holds him back."

"How could that be? You don't know how good you are..."

"But when we were little, I was the one who always chased after him and called him brother, ha..."

"now what?"

"I'm sorry to call you grown up, you're only three days older than me, huh, why are you so proud?"

The girl laughed happily: "I want to call him husband in the future! Or, the father of the child?"

Chapter 207: Endless distance, countless people, all related to me...

In the pure white space, Hong Butian had his eyes closed.

His hands were placed on his legs, each tightly grasping a low-grade spirit stone. His blood and energy were churning, and his body temperature was rising rapidly.

"Pay attention, activate the Qi and blood, and try to draw the spiritual energy from the spirit stone. Just a small wisp will do. Don't rush it."

The solemn voice of the ring sounded beside Hong Butian's ears: "Slowly draw the spiritual energy and walk along the route I taught you before. Don't deviate, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous!

When you encounter obstacles, don't think that you can break through them by putting in more effort. That only proves that you are on the wrong path!

You should leave without hesitation at that time, otherwise you will either go crazy or die!"

"Ok!"

Hong Butian remembered what the great elder said, but at this moment his mind was so focused that he only uttered a heavy nasal sound and said nothing more.

The first step is to guide out the more condensed spiritual energy in the spirit stone. At the beginning, Hong Butian couldn't figure it out. He thought that the spiritual energy would come out if he crushed the spirit stone, so he tried hard with both hands, but it was of no use.

Fortunately, the great elder reminded Hong Butian in time, telling him not to try to destroy it from the outside, but to guide the spiritual energy to leak out from the inside...

Soon, fine beads of cold sweat covered his forehead and Hong Butian's body even began to tremble slightly. His clothes were completely soaked and stuck to his body, but he still couldn't get it right.

Finally, after an unknown amount of time, the spiritual energy seemed to realize something belatedly and finally responded to his call.

A wisp of spiritual energy, really just a small wisp, and even so, controlling it made Hong Butian feel exhausted.

But this is far from the end. Or rather, the most important step has just begun. The spiritual energy must circulate through the meridians and transform into one's own spiritual power. There cannot be any mistakes during this process.

You can be slow, but you can’t be wrong.

"..."

"..."

"It's the seventh day."

The ring suddenly spoke: "Open your mouth."

Hong Butian spoke upon hearing this. A light flashed on the ring, and a pill made of herbs was thrown into his mouth, melting as soon as it entered his mouth.

"..."

"The fourteenth day."

"..."

"The 21st."

"..."

"On the 28th, speak up."

This time, Hong Butian did not speak. His blood and energy suddenly began to surge violently, and veins popped out on his forehead: "Ah, ah!"

"Kacha."

The two spirit stones in his hands shattered and then turned into powder.

As if reaching a limit, Hong Butian's breath gradually began to stabilize. After another half a day, he opened his eyes. His eyes were bloodshot, but there was no sign of lethargy.

"congratulations!"

The ring happily congratulated him, "You have successfully reached the Qi Refining Stage and truly become a cultivator. Although you are still very weak, if you learn a few spells and moves, you can be called an immortal among the mortals."

“Thanks for your help!”

Hong Butian thanked him sincerely: "I will definitely complete what I promised you!"

"As for the Immortal..."

Hong Butian showed a self-deprecating smile: "The last one called Xianzhang was hit to death by my younger brother and sister with a bench."

ring:"……"

"That was just a special case..."

Ring coughed twice: "That weasel underestimated the enemy, otherwise it wouldn't be so powerless to resist."

"But dead is dead, no matter how many excuses you find, it's useless."

Hong Butian shook his head and said with emotion: "Xiao Li and Xiao Yang are the real geniuses. My cousin has been practicing in the Five Elements Sect for nearly a year, and I don't know how powerful she is now."

"Hey, hey, please don't mention the Five Elements Sect again!"

The ring said unhappily: "When you arrive at Medicine King Sect, you will be the last disciple of the Great Elder of Medicine King Sect, and the resources you will receive will definitely not be comparable to that of a new disciple of Five Elements Sect.

By then, it will be no problem for you to surpass your cousin in cultivation, right?

You should compete with the true geniuses, the young talents from various sects..."

After a pause, the ring changed its tone and said, "Besides, it's not certain whether your sister has succeeded in refining Qi yet!

There is no such thing as years in cultivation. What can you accomplish in a year? Nothing at all! "

"Hey, if you look down on the Five Elements Sect, that's none of my business, but why do you speculate about my little sister like that?"

Hong Butian retorted unconvincedly: "I heard from my uncle and aunt that Xiaoli is doing very well there, and the elders from all the departments have to give her some face!

If she hadn't been unwilling, the elders would have begged her to become the sect leader!"

"laugh."

The ring couldn't help but sneered: "I'm not trying to hit you. You can tell that those words were made up by a little girl. It's understandable that she only reports good news and not bad news.

However, if you say that a disciple who has been a disciple for less than a year can get the elders to give him face and say that he can succeed the position of the sect leader, then that is really laughable. Do you know how many years the position of the sect leader of the Five Elements Sect has been vacant?"

"In addition, as far as I know, the Five Elements Sect will reject many people in each batch of disciples they recruit. Those are the ones who failed to successfully refine their Qi within a year."

The ring speculated in a sly voice, "Maybe your little sister will be eliminated after a year?

You may not know that the Five Elements Sect's airship, in addition to picking up new disciples to the sect, also has the task of sending rejected disciples back home.

Wait two months... Oh, no, wait until the Five Elements Sect is done with the mountain closure, then maybe you can see your sister being sent back on the airship?"

"This……"

When Hong Butian heard what the ring said, he was a little uncertain for a moment.

He had just entered the Qi Refining Stage, and he was well aware of the difficulties involved. In addition, there was a senior monk who was suspected to be the grand elder of the Medicine King Sect to guide him, which enabled him to overcome this hurdle without any danger.

But if it was Xiaoli...

A newly registered disciple certainly couldn't get the same guidance from a Jindan-stage cultivator as he did, and coupled with Xiaoli's lazy personality...

"I think I did hear Uncle Xiaochen say that..."

Hong Butian frowned: "It is said that Xiaoli will be back to get married soon, and she even teased me about when I will find a partner..."

"Look, look, I'll tell you."

The ring said in a tone of astonishment: "That girl must have become disillusioned with cultivation and has begun to think about returning home to take care of her husband and children, just like most mortals, and spend a boring and short life."

"how come……"

Hong Butian was a little bit incredulous: "My sister's talent is far superior to mine. She will definitely achieve something in the future. How could she become mediocre as you said?"

"I can only say that it doesn't matter whether you believe it or not."

The ring said with emotion: "Everyone's life experiences are different. It doesn't matter who has the strongest ability. That person will definitely achieve something. There will always be various factors that affect his growth."

"certainly……"

The ring changed the subject and said with a chuckle, "I will protect you from now on. When you have achieved success in your cultivation, you can also help your family members.

By then, if your cousin has not been worn down by life and reality, you can give her another chance."

"..."

Hong Butian was silent for a while, then raised his head with a determined look on his face.

"I understand. I will work hard to cultivate and strive to become a great cultivator who can support my family, not only Xiaoli, but also other relatives and friends who care about me..."

"It's good to have ambition. Now let's go out. I have put all the remaining things here into the ring. Some of them can replenish the strength I have consumed, and the rest are left for you."

The ring said in a pleasant voice: "Now, I will point you in the direction of Yaowang Sect..."

.........

On the Five Elements Sect airship, Hong Li suddenly frowned: "Hmm? Is anyone talking about me?"

Shadows were floating around her, and vaguely there seemed to be ferocious demonic figures baring their fangs and claws.

"Well, but there doesn't seem to be any malice, and there seems to be some vague concern?"

Hongli scratched her cheek and looked in a certain direction. Suddenly, she realized, "Oh, that's my hometown. It's okay then. I guess my family members are thinking about me. Alert!"

The shadows receded like the tide.
