Taoist cultivation begins with being a miner

As darkness fell at the end of the Yin hour (3 to 5 o'clock), Lu Yan had ventured quite a distance into the forest and was approaching the Qiongyi Ridge Mountains.

It is said that this place is already a gathering place for second- or third-tier demonic beasts, far beyond what a Qi Refining cultivator like myself can stay in.

Thanks to the Fate Coin, Lu Yan has not encountered any danger for the time being.

After careful consideration, Lu Yan prepared to return, but just then he suddenly heard a rumbling sound in the distance. Curious, he went to investigate.

What came into view was a deep pit and a dead black bird-like monster.

Although I don't know what kind it is, I know it's something special just by looking at it.

It was about ten feet in size, with feathers as black as ink, and had many wounds on its body from which blood was still flowing.

The more she looked at Lu Yan, the more familiar he seemed.

Upon further reflection, isn't this the Night Owl, a third-tier demonic beast recorded in the book?

It is said that this thing is extremely powerful, famous for its speed, and even ordinary Golden Core cultivators are no match for it.

I just don't know why he died here.

However, if we meet, it is fate; if you see it, it belongs to you.

Lu Yan jumped into the deep pit and put Ye Cangxiao's body into his storage ring.

But just then, they suddenly discovered that there were other things below.

"Huh~ There's someone else~" Lu Yan looked down and found that it was a person, and a woman at that.

However, the woman was in a terrible state, covered in blood, her face was unrecognizable, and her arms were severely deformed, but thankfully she was still alive.

After searching, I couldn't find any storage devices or identification tags. They must have been dropped somewhere else during the battle.

So Lu Yan quickly took out a healing pill and fed it to her, but the effect was minimal. Her injuries not only did not improve but became more dangerous, as if she would die at any moment.

Suddenly remembering the recovery pill he had just received today, and considering the influence of the Destiny Coin, Lu Yan realized that this thing didn't seem to be prepared for him.

Well, this concerns my own opportunity. This woman must be quite powerful to kill such a large Night Owl on her own. At the very least, she is a Golden Core cultivator. Saving her life will definitely bring me considerable gains.

First, straighten her arm, then feed her the recovery pill.

After a moment, her pale face began to regain its color, and her faint pulse began to beat, but that was all.

After all, it was a product of the Level 1 Roulette, which was still a bit of a stretch for such a high-level cultivator. It was already quite good that it could keep her alive.

After learning all this, Lu Yan took out one of his own clothes for her to wear, and then took out a bamboo hat to cover her face.

Otherwise, if people see him carrying a woman back to the city, it will cause misunderstandings.

Fearing that her injuries would worsen, Lu Yan was extremely cautious along the way. In addition, since they were deep in the forest, it was already early Hai Shi (9:00-11:00 PM) when they returned to Wuyou City.

The city gate guards ignored Lu Yan, after all, it was inevitable to get injured while hunting monsters, and such things were nothing new.

Back at his residence, Lu Yan tidied up the bedroom before putting the female cultivator on the bed, only to find that she was terribly dirty, covered in blood and mud.

After pondering for a while, Lu Yan made a great decision.

"Fairy, I don't want to take advantage of you, but I have no choice. You don't want to be in such a sticky and dirty place to recover, do you?" Lu Yan first consulted the female cultivator and found that she did not object.

So he felt perfectly justified in stripping her naked and putting her into the bathtub.

It must be said that this female cultivator has a really good figure and skin, especially after she has washed herself clean.

Their faces were flawless, as if sculpted with exquisite skill; the granaries were plentiful, and the fruit was fresh.

Pure white with a hint of pink, the deeper you go, the more breathtaking it becomes.

Left with no other choice, Lu Yan wiped the blood from his nose while speeding up the washing process.

After a few moments, I wiped her clean, dressed her in her own underwear and undergarments, and finally put her on the bed.

I've seen everything I was supposed to see, and touched everything I was supposed to touch.

Lu Yan took out the Destiny Coin and kissed it twice. He absolutely adored this little cutie.

After everything was over, Lu Yan quickly took a high-grade healing pill, as he had almost died of anemia.

Lu Yan did not know when she woke up, but he began to cultivate. After dawn, Lu Yan did not go to the mine to mine, but obediently served the female cultivator.

Suddenly wanting to test whether her pen of truth could glean any information about him, she picked up her clothes and let the pen of truth absorb her essence.

The result showed that the Pen of Truth remained completely still, indicating that it could only express the secrets of the Qi Refining stage.

Then he took out the Demon Whisper and made the statue absorb the female cultivator's aura. Then he whispered into the statue's ear, "Lu Yan is my father, Lu Yan is my father, Lu Yan is my father."

Say the important thing three times.

Over the next few days, Lu Yan spent his time at home making talismans, refining pills, practicing martial arts, cultivating, and studying the Eight Trigrams. He also took care of the unfamiliar female cultivator, regularly feeding her medicine, helping her wash, and giving her massages.

……

Half a month later.

"Cough cough~" Qing Hualian coughed and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Slowly opening my eyes, I found myself in an unfamiliar environment.

He tried to get up but found that his injuries were quite severe. Even the slightest movement caused excruciating pain, and he couldn't make a sound. His cultivation and spiritual sense were out of the question. He could only stare blankly at his surroundings.

Suddenly, he remembered that he had been fighting a fierce battle with a night owl, but was hit by its fatal blow, and then lost consciousness.

Judging from the current situation, they must have been rescued.

Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed my sword lying on the table.

I didn't feel the storage bracelet. Thinking back carefully, it seems that it was knocked off when Ye Cangxiao broke both my arms and I fell into the forest.

Now I just don't know who saved me.

At the end of Chen Shi (7 to 9 o'clock), Lu Yan returned from his outing.

As the wooden door creaked open, Qing Hualian quickly closed her eyes.

"Huh? Why is there blood around my mouth? Has my condition worsened again?"

It's a man!

Upon hearing the sound, Qinghua Lianxin felt a chill run down her spine.

Alone with a man and a woman, and severely injured herself, she couldn't help but feel fear.

Immediately afterwards, Qing Hualian felt that person pinching her wrist to take her pulse.

"I'm fine, my pulse is strong, it shouldn't be like this."

After saying this, Qing Hualian felt her hands being stuffed back into the blankets.

Immediately afterwards, a surge of spiritual energy enveloped a pill, which was then fed into his mouth and down his throat into his stomach.

Qing Hualian could sense that the quality of the pill was good, but unfortunately the medicinal power was too weak. A first-tier pill would not be of much use to a Golden Core cultivator like herself.

But something is better than nothing; at least it helps him. Lu Yan refined the pill, letting its weak medicinal power repair his body.

A moment later, upon hearing the sound of the other person's footsteps leaving, Qing Hualian slightly opened her eyes.

Although I only saw his back, he looked somewhat familiar, but I couldn't quite place where I had seen him before.
