The Wheel-Turning Master.

Chapter 148 The noisy fox

Nine-Leaf Tongue Grass is a miraculous medicine for cultivators who want to build their elixir, but when Jiang Xiaobai swallowed it, he had completed his Qi training.

Although the yin and yang interacted at that time and eliminated a lot of the medicinal power, there was no guarantee that some of the medicinal power would remain.

Besides, the tongue grass is shaped like a snake's tongue and grows in places where snakes gather, and snakes are the most lustful.

Although Jiang was full of dirty talk in the past, she never did anything out of line. Why is she so demanding now? What kind of dual cultivation method is she practicing?

Lin Bai was not tired, he just felt that the road of cultivation was long. Hehuan was necessary, but it was only a change, and he could not go down this path.

If this is the case, wouldn't it delay the great road? If I indulge in it again, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult to go far.

"Why aren't you moving again? Are you tired?" Jiang Xiaobai showed concern.

Lin Bai looked at her and asked, "When you swallowed the tongue grass that day, have you not yet refined it?"

"How do you know?" Jiang Xiaobai asked curiously.

"How long will it take?" Lin Bai asked again.

"Nine leaves mean nine years." Jiang Xiaobai smiled, "You eat the stems, I eat the leaves, I don't need you to come." She snorted twice and turned her head away, "You got nine years for nothing."

Lin Bai held his forehead with his hand. At that time, the girl Jiang in the cave clearly said that it was the last time. It turned out that she wanted to sleep for nine years at that time.

But finally I found a way to control her.

"Pay the accommodation fee every two months." After packing everything, Lin Bai drew his sword ruthlessly.

"Heh." Jiang Xiaobai was not in a hurry at all. "You turned against me after eating. As your mother, I won't bother with you!" After she said that, she put on her proud robe and left.

Lin Bai smacked his lips and decided to meet once a month, all for his apprentice.

After sitting for a while, Lin Bai went out, contacted some old friends, and asked for some news.

Lin Bai bought a new alchemy furnace and planned to pick up the alchemy skill again.

Although the small Yin-Yang Cauldron was still usable, it could not withstand the daily attacks from the foundation-building cultivators.

After that, Lin Bai practiced the alchemy method diligently and carefully read Zhu Jianguang's notes annotated by Zhu Jianshui until he understood them clearly.

Occasionally, he would talk with Sister Pei, and the two of them would inspire each other in sword skills, and sometimes they would practice sword skills on the couch.

As for the monthly accommodation expenses, Lin Bai was diligent and never slacked off.

If I have free time, I will go to Yuhu to train my children, which is quite fun.

In the blink of an eye, another year has passed, and Lin Bai has reached the second level of foundation building.

In the first year of foundation building, he only focused on tempering the body and paying the accommodation fee, which slightly delayed his practice; in the second year, he temporarily put aside the Hunyuan Body Tempering Technique and focused on refining pills and warming up the flying knives, and spent even more effort on practice.

There was no news about Zhu Jianyang yet, but Lin Bai was not in a hurry.

The technique of flying knives became more and more handy, and wielding nine flying knives at the same time became easy and natural.

"Go back and try your best to ask Jiang girl to get a few more flying knives. Then learn the sword formation method, and use the knives to form a formation, which will increase the power."

The method of refining the elixir was also mastered, and Lin Bai began to refine elixirs for Fengming Pavilion again.

"I have a lot of skills. I can't say I'm gifted in alchemy, but after so much time, my skills are considered to be perfect. But Miaomiao, this unfilial disciple, doesn't seem to want to inherit my legacy!"

Lin Bai felt that he still needed to learn more. Otherwise, it would be difficult to teach Miao Miao in the future.

In addition, he had already vaguely sensed some of the true meaning of the Nascent Soul Sword.

Therefore, it is necessary to forge several flying knives that can carry the pure and flawless sword intent.

He tried the flying knife again and sat quietly for half a day. When it was dawn, Lin Bai went out and headed straight for Yu Lake.

This time it was not to pay the accommodation fee for a good apprentice, but Jiang Yu entered Taoism today. Usually, people enter Taoism at the age of twelve, but Jiang Yu was forced by her sister and had not yet celebrated her twelfth birthday.

Lin Bai had known Jiang Yu since she was a child, so he invited her to visit in the name of an elder.

When we got there, we climbed onto the small island in the middle of the lake.

Jiang Yu bowed respectfully, Miaomiao walked forward and took Lin Bai's hand, smacking her lips non-stop.

Miaomiao is almost nine years old now. She used to be quiet when she was young, but now she talks a lot and is lively. She is very popular in the Yuhu area.

And she was still filial, always chatting with Lin Bai, saying that she had met a certain sister, a certain aunt, and wanted to introduce Lin Bai to someone else. But if she met Pei Ning, Miao Miao would never mention these things, but instead called her Master's Wife, very affectionately.

The master and the disciple were chatting, and after a while Jiang Xiaobai walked out of the tower, wearing a wide Taoist robe and with a calm expression.

She had already reached the second level of foundation building half a year ago, so her progress can be said to be rapid.

Generally speaking, if there is no bottleneck in the foundation-building period, the early stage will take two years to complete one layer, the middle stage will take three to four years to complete one layer, and the late stage will take four to five years to complete one layer.

If one can form a pill within twenty years, he can be called a genius, but there are very few such people. Even if one can form a pill within thirty or forty years, he is also blessed by heaven.

Those with average aptitude usually form a pill at the age of 120 to 130. If they are over 150, it will be more difficult. This is also related to the age at the time of foundation building, and often one step slower leads to another.

Of course, if you encounter a bottleneck or a knot in your heart, you may never make any progress in your life. For example, Tie Huasheng has excellent qualifications, but his progress is as slow as a snail.

"Friend Yun." Jiang Xiaobai nodded slightly.

Now she is being nourished by Lin Bai, and is constantly practicing the dual cultivation method. Lin Bai has not gained much, but she seems to have gained something. She doesn't know if it's really because of the dual cultivation method, or if the tongue grass is working again.

Anyway, the fruits are getting bigger and bigger, and the branches are getting more and more fruitful. Unlike Sister Pei, Lin Bai used a lot of effort, but there was not much change.

"Fellow Daoist Jiang." Lin Bai nodded in return.

The two men had indifferent expressions, not like they were on the couch.

After a while, many children from the Jiang family came, all of whom were not yet Taoists.

A moment later, Jiang Hongbo and Jiang Xiangsheng arrived together.

After the greetings, they waited for another half an hour. Jiang Yu sat in the pavilion on the shore, and Jiang Xiaobai sat five feet away.

It is quite dangerous for a newcomer to enter the Tao, and he needs to be looked after by a virtuous elder. Regardless of whether Jiang Xiaobai is virtuous or not, she is the elder sister, so she is the most suitable.

Everyone watched from afar, and no one said anything.

After an hour, Jiang Yu succeeded in drawing the Qi into his body, and Jiang Xiaobai got up and left.

"It's too late to enter the Dao." Jiang Xiaobai walked closer to Lin Bai and the others, shook his head slightly and said, "I entered the Dao at the age of ten, but Xiaoyuer kept putting it off."

"You are much more talented than her, and you are also very smart. Xiaoyuer, on the other hand, is very upright. You sisters are not following the same path." Jiang Hongbo said with a smile.

"It's not good to be too upright. If someone bullies me someday, I'm afraid Jiang Yu will have a hard time resolving it." Jiang Xiangsheng showed no expression.

"You have to grow up slowly. If you encounter problems in the future, you will naturally get better after going through more hardships."

Jiang Hongbo really likes Jiang Yu. He smiled and looked at Jiang Xiaobai, saying, "That girl's destiny is to be a fish in the water, and this place is just right for her to practice. In the future, build a simple house on the shore for Xiaoyu to rest and practice. You sisters can also see each other every day, and she will be happy to talk to you."

The grade of the Jade Lake is not low, it is already the upper grade of the second grade, and the island in the middle of the lake is even the lower grade of the third grade, which is suitable for Jindan to live in. And the fact that Jiang girl has been living here all the time shows the Jiang family's preference for her.

When Lin Bai first entered the Jiang family, the cave he rented was only of the first-grade middle grade, which could be used by cultivators in the early and middle stages of Qi training. Later, he moved into the Earth Fire Cave, which was also only of the second-grade middle grade, which was used by cultivators in the late stages of Qi training and foundation building.

Today's Earth Fire Cave Mansion is of a higher grade, reaching the upper second grade, and can be cultivated to the late stage of foundation building.

As for those places in my hometown, most of them are not of high level and it is difficult for them to become successful.

Generally, the core spiritual land of a Jindan family is mostly of the upper-middle grade of the third grade, or even of the fourth grade. For a family like the Jiang family that has been producing Jindan for generations, the high-level spiritual land is of the middle grade of the fourth grade, where the head of the Jiang family, Jiang Xingchi, lives. There are also several lower-grade fourth-grade spiritual lands, which is considered extremely wealthy.

The less developed ones, such as the Zhu family's Fengmingshan, were only of the lower fourth rank, and were far less large than the Jiang family's.

"This place is of lower third grade and covers a large area, which is enough for you sisters to practice." Lin Bai interrupted.

Jiang Hongbo and Jiang Xiangsheng both nodded slightly.

Jiang Xiaobai had no reason to refuse, nor did she want to refuse. Although she always told Lin Bai that Jiang Yu was too honest, she was very protective of Jiang Yu in her heart.

"I heard that you often go to the Sutra Repository and look through a lot of things. A while ago, you also took out the Seven Questions on Talisman Making and the Talisman Solution. Do you want to learn how to make talismans?" Jiang Xiangsheng asked Jiang Xiaobai.

Lin Bai glanced at Jiang Xiaomei and thought, you kept telling me that you didn’t get it, so it seems like you got it a long time ago but you just don’t want to give it to me, right?

The Jiang family is full of gentlemen and ladies, how come a liar like you appeared?

Lin Bai felt very wronged. He worked hard all the time, but was still schemed against by Jiang Yatou! It was hard to be a gigolo!

"I've been studying it recently." Jiang Xiaobai agreed, not even looking at Lin Bai's scrutinizing gaze.

"If you want to learn, come find me someday. I'm pretty good at it." Jiang Xiangsheng said. "Yes." Jiang Xiaobai agreed.

"It's always good to learn more skills." Jiang Hongbo stroked his beard and smiled, then looked at Lin Bai and said, "Fellow Daoist Yun, when I first met you, you were just practicing Qi, but now you have already established your foundation, and your alchemy skills have also improved a lot. If you have time, please give some pointers to Jiang girl."

"I don't deserve her advice." Lin Bai smiled and said, "I've been here since I was a humble disciple. I've come here from time to time and received a lot of advice from her. I've learned a lot of new things."

The four foundation-building masters chatted for a while, then Lin Bai stood up to say goodbye and taught Miao Miao a few principles, clearly acting like a gentleman.

"I have nothing to do, so I'll go talk to him about the method of alchemy." Jiang Xiaobai actually followed.

In this case, Lin Bai can just take advantage of her.

Now that I have grasped some of the Nascent Soul Sword Intent, I need to refine a few new flying knives.

And it does not require the five elements, just purity is enough, which can better carry the pure and flawless sword intent.

Lin Bai mentioned this matter to Jiang Xiaomei, hoping that she would go find Jiang Huo again and use her name.

"Sword cultivators are indeed strong, but you are only at the foundation building stage, and you only need to master one sword intent. If you are distracted, it will delay your cultivation." If Jiang Xiaobai leaves the closed place, she will be more serious, "Those who are proficient in two or three sword intents are mostly hopeless. They focus on this and can comprehend multiple things." She stared at Lin Bai's eyes, very seriously, "You are making progress quickly, and you have not fallen behind in the method of alchemy. It is inevitable that you will be distracted if you learn other things. Don't be greedy."

"I'll go to Yuhu a few more times this month." Lin Bai said.

"Come with me." Jiang Xiaobai led the way, entered the underground fire cave, and saw Jiang Huo again.

After stating his request and about to leave, Jiang Huo pulled Lin Bai aside to chat for a while about his experience in alchemy, and then let him go.

After coming out from underground, Lin Bai took Jiang Yatou back to his own cave.

But when they arrived at the door, they saw Jiang Chun and Zhu Yumao, who were already waiting there.

Zhu Yumao came in person, and Lin Bai guessed that Zhu Jianyang had returned.

Jiang Chun bowed and said goodbye.

Zhu Jianyang also stepped forward to salute, and Lin Bai returned the salute.

Jiang Xiaobai shook her head, knowing that she couldn't sleep. "Come back to Yuhu to find me." She said, turned around and left.

"This young senior Jiang doesn't seem very happy." After Jiang Xiaobai walked away, Zhu Yumao dared to speak in a low voice, "But am I being impolite?"

"She is just like that, don't pay attention to her." Lin Bai smiled and invited Zhu Yumao into the cave.

"Uncle is back." But Zhu Yumao did not come in.

really!

Lin Bai didn't say anything more and went to Fengming Pavilion with Zhu Yumao.

When they arrived at the place, Zhu Yumao asked Lin Bai to go upstairs alone.

It was still the same room. When he opened the door, he saw Zhu Jianyang holding his beard and smiling.

After not seeing each other for more than a year, Zhu Jianyang seemed younger, more energetic, and his cultivation had improved.

The two men sat down and chatted for a few words. Then Zhu Jianyang made a hand gesture and threw out a talisman to separate the inside and the outside.

Lin Bai knew that the sex scene was about to begin.

"What's the situation now?" Lin Bai was quite curious.

Now everyone in Xinyifang is talking about it. Some say that the fox will never be a slave and has escaped long ago; others say that the three sects have beaten the fox to death and no one can get it; and there are even more outrageous ones, saying that the fox is too coquettish and will go to whichever family gives her the most male cultivators.

Lin Bai also asked around, but never met Yang Shu; Jiang girl's family didn't tell her much; Yao Qianyuan only knew how to flirt; when he wrote to ask Gai Yingqiu, she asked back which bitch Yang Shu had taken a fancy to; when he asked Chun Yu Ye again, she only said that Chun Yu Tong seemed to know.

Anyway, the news was widely spread among the independent cultivators, but the sects and families were quite restrained.

“It’s still a mess today.”

Zhu Jianyang stroked his beard and smiled, then began to speak in detail.

It turned out that Fairy Chenyu had been staying in Jiuyin Mountain and had not come out, so Qiaoshan Sect had been negotiating with Jiuyin Mountain, and Yunxia Sect was on Qiaoshan Sect's side and adding fuel to the fire.

Among the three major sects, Qiaoshan is a thoroughfare, so Qiaoshan Sect has always been the richest, most powerful, and has the most Nascent Souls. Jiuyin Mountain and Yunxia Sect are isolated overseas, with similar strengths, and are one level lower.

The Qiaoshan Sect has a Supreme Sect Leader who has no family, is fair, and is in the late Nascent Soul stage, so he has always been able to suppress others. There are also the Gu Family and the Cheng Family, both of which have a Nascent Soul early stage cultivator, and the Yang Family has an old ancestor in the middle Nascent Soul stage, but they are all old men who have not developed the Great Dao. As a result, a few years ago, a new Nascent Soul was promoted to the Gu Family, and their power increased greatly.

However, according to Zhu Jianyang, the Yuanying members of Qiaoshan Sect actually have a good relationship, but the people below them are fighting among themselves.

Jiuyin Mountain is also a mess, divided into three factions.

Only two Nascent Soul elders showed up from the Yunxia Sect. Their Nascent Soul old leader had been in seclusion and had not been seen for a long time. No one knew if something had happened.

But the matter involved Yuanying spirit beasts, so no two parties could start a war easily, otherwise a third party would take advantage of them, and that would be fun. But if it was just a small fight between Jindan and foundation building, that would not be very interesting.

If one family has a daughter, several families will ask for her. Although the three Nascent Soul sects all want her, the fox has already reached the Nascent Soul stage, the spirit beast has transformed, and its brain is more useful than that of a human, so it can already come to the negotiation table.

If we use force, firstly, we may not be able to make the fox surrender, and secondly, the three parties will not be able to work together.

Finally, the three sects were tired and each sent out a Nascent Soul to negotiate at Qingzaofang, which had been razed to the ground in the past.

Then they each made an offer to the fox. One promised a high-level spiritual land, and the other said he would be treated as an elder. In the end, after a long argument, they still couldn't reach an agreement.

When Fox saw that the three families were about to fight, she said that she no longer wanted to follow the newly promoted Nascent Soul of the Gu family, and asked the three families to choose the Golden Core again, and she would choose it herself.

Now Qiaoshan Sect and Jiuyin Mountain have joined forces again. The former is the mother's home and the latter is the new home. They say that Yunxia Sect has no qualifications to participate.

But the Yunxia Sect argued for its rights and formed a secret alliance. Finally, it was decided to be 442, with the Yunxia Sect sending two people.

There are ten golden elixirs in total, all of them are young talents from the three major sects.

Then they fight in pairs and two are selected from the ten.

But the fox said he didn't like it.

The three major factions had no choice but to send the eight people who failed to be elected back.

The fox said to change a batch.

Talking about this, Lin Bai really couldn't hold it back, "Is Fairy Chen Yu really playing tricks on the three major sects?"

"What's wrong with playing around?" Zhu Jianyang also laughed happily, as if he was happy to see this. "It's just a show of face, and there's no need to fight to the death. If I can really bring home a Yuanying spirit beast, I'll wake up laughing in my dreams."

Zhu Jianyang's meaning was clear. If Qiaoshan Sect and Jiuyin Mountain wanted to obtain it, Yunxia Sect would just try their best. They could not ask for success, but at least they had to destroy Jiuyin Mountain.

And the fox was even more interesting. He thrived like a fish in water among the three major sects and had a lot of fun.

But it happened that the fox had stayed in Qiaoshan Sect for hundreds of years and was indeed close to humans. Even though the three major sects thought that the fox was playing tricks on them, they were still hooked.

After the two of them laughed in a frivolous way, Zhu Jianyang continued speaking.

After the fox said he wanted to change a batch, the three major sects actually did so. Each sent out golden elixirs to meet them. It didn't take much effort anyway.

However, the fox only said he was dissatisfied.

All the Jindan from the three major sects who could move went there, but the result was no success.

Either this one is ugly or that one is smelly. The elegant male cultivators are said to be homosexuals; the beautiful female cultivators are said to be too coquettish. The old ones are too old, the young ones are too young, anyway, they just don't like them.

The fox also liked to give people nicknames. She said that a male cultivator from the Gu family who used wooden magic weapons was a blockhead. She also said that Qu Chengjia was a little turtle, which made Qu Chengjia so angry that he returned to Yunxia Sect. It is said that after returning, she killed the mole and snow fox raised by a descendant of her family.

That would have been fine, but there was another female cultivator from Jiuyin Mountain, who was very beautiful, and the fox called her Duo Girl. When others asked why, the fox said that the female cultivator ate no matter what, whether it was meat or vegetables, humans or animals, and slept too much, so she was called Duo Girl.

After making a fuss for a long time, the three major sects finally lost their temper and worked out a plan, which was to let the fox swear an oath, and then return to Mianlong Mountain and not join the three major sects within a thousand years.

Just do whatever you want to do, and don't interfere in the affairs of the three major factions in the future.

Lin Bai felt that the fact that the three major sects could put aside their disputes and hatreds and abandon a Yuanying spirit beast showed how troublesome and annoying this fox was.

"Did Fairy Chenyu agree?" Lin Bai asked.

Zhu Jianyang nodded.

"So after a few years of turmoil, the three major sects have been busy and contributing manpower, fighting in arenas and scheming against each other, but in the end, they are back to the starting point?" Lin Bai couldn't help laughing.

"Who said it wasn't true?" Zhu Jianyang smiled while stroking his beard, "Fairy Chenyu left a mess behind and has returned to Mianlong Mountain." At this point, Zhu Jianyang lowered his voice, "However, Fairy Chenyu did not swear an oath, and left some words for someone who is compatible with her."

"Do you think I'm someone you like?" Lin Bai asked.

"Not like that." Zhu Jianyang smiled, "That fairy doesn't seem to like male cultivators, and prefers simple female cultivators. If she sees you, she will definitely give you a sinister nickname."

Lin Bai nodded, thinking to himself that I already have a nickname, but I am not afraid of being given another one!
