We said we would experience life, fairy, how did you become real?

In an instant, thunder roared across the sky, and bolts of lightning struck down towards Jiang Qingyi.

When an ordinary person undergoes the Foundation Establishment Tribulation, there are only three bolts of lightning.

However, Jiang Qingyi had a total of nine.

If Xiao Mo hadn't been well-prepared, using all sorts of treasures and pills for tribulation, Jiang Qingyi would have been in grave danger.

After entering the Foundation Establishment Realm, Jiang Qingyi's cultivation speed was much faster than before.

This is a good thing.

The faster Jiang Qingyi cultivates, the higher her realm will be fifty years from now.

However, Xiao Mo used the Heaven-Continuing Technique on Jiang Qingyi more frequently.

If things continue like this, Xiao Mo feels that he may only have forty years left to live.

One day, the Longquan Sword Sect assigned Jiang Qingyi a task.

Disciples of the Longquan Sword Sect at the Foundation Establishment stage are required to go on missions.

Jiang Qingyi was no exception.

Xiao Mo secretly followed Jiang Qingyi as her protector.

However, Xiao Mo would not make a move unless it was a matter of life and death; this was not only a rule of the Longquan Sword Sect.

It is only through experiencing life and death that a cultivator can progress more quickly.

Jiang Qingyi did not give Xiao Mo a chance to make a move.

Jiang Qingyi completed every task exceptionally well.

She is very capable and has even demonstrated some leadership skills.

Unbeknownst to many, Jiang Qingyi had become a representative of the new generation of disciples of the Longquan Sword Sect.

Even Jiang Qingyi's reputation gradually spread throughout the country.

At the age of seventeen, Jiang Qingyi entered the Cave Realm.

Jiang Qingyi can be said to have advanced to a higher realm every year and a half, leaving her fellow cultivators further and further behind.

On the day the girl turned eighteen, Xiao Mo made up an excuse to ask Jiang Qingyi to go to Longquan Town to buy wine.

While Jiang Qingyi was away, Xiao Mo quickly started making arrangements in the courtyard.

After making the arrangements, Xiao Mo waited for Qingyi to return on the only way up the mountain.

More than half an hour later, Jiang Qingyi carried the wine her master had asked for up the mountain and saw her master standing under the moonlight, smiling and looking in her direction.

Jiang Qingyi's eyes flashed with joy, and she happily ran over, picking up the jar of wine: "Master, the wine you requested, Aunt Wang's twenty-year-old osmanthus wine, there's just one jar left."

"Okay, thank you." Xiao Mo took the wine jar and handed a piece of black cloth to Jiang Qingyi with his other hand.

"What is this, Master?" Jiang Qingyi asked curiously.

"Blindfold them."

Jiang Qingyi blinked, then took the black cloth and blindfolded herself.

Although I don't know what my master is going to do, I will do whatever my master says.

"Don't peek!"

Xiao Mo took Jiang Qingyi's small hand and walked forward.

"Okay, take off the black cloth now."

After entering the courtyard, Xiao Mo said.

The girl removed the blindfold from her eyes.

What caught the girl's eye was a very, very large osmanthus cake.

A thin candle was stuck in the osmanthus cake, with the words "Happy Birthday Qingyi" written on it.

“Master, this is…” Jiang Qingyi’s eyes flickered.

"This is a custom in my hometown. We eat cake on birthdays. In the past few years, on your birthday, either I was on a mission or you were on a mission."

We're all here this year, and it's also your 18th birthday.

Originally, a cake was to be served, but the chef in Longquan Town doesn't know how to make cakes, so I used osmanthus cake instead.

Xiao Mo explained to Jiang Qingyi.

"Make a wish, then blow out the candle, and your wish will come true."

"Hmm."

Jiang Qingyi closed her eyes, clasped her hands together, and made a wish.

Three breaths later, the girl opened her eyes and blew out the candle.

"Master, do you want to know what Qingyi's wish is?" Jiang Qingyi turned around, her eyes crinkling.

"I'm guessing, they hope to reach the Golden Core realm as soon as possible?"

"No."

"Do you want to eat Zuixianlou's grilled fish every day?"

"No, not really."

"what is that?"

Just as Jiang Qingyi was about to say "Yes," she playfully turned around, "I won't tell Master~"

Xiao Mo: "."

Under the moonlight, Jiang Qingyi looked at her birthday cake, her eyes filled with tenderness: "Master."

"Ok?"

"Thank you."

Xiao Mo reached out and gently patted his disciple's head:

"Because I'm your master."

Chapter 10 If Jiang Qingyi knew everything, what would she think?

In the blink of an eye, ten years have passed in the book of a hundred generations.

Originally, Jiang Qingyi was just a cultivator who couldn't even reach the Qi Refining Realm.

But now, Jiang Qingyi has reached the Golden Core realm.

In just fourteen years, he went from Qi Refining to Golden Core. His talent is already top-notch in the entire world.

Jiang Qingyi is now a steward of the Longquan Sword Sect.

Once Jiang Qingyi reaches the Nascent Soul Realm, she can become an elder of the Longquan Sword Sect.

In reality, Longquan Sword Sect is just a large sect.

if not.

Looking across the entire world, cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage are already capable of establishing their own sects.

"cough cough cough cough"

On the bed, Xiao Mo coughed incessantly.

Xiao Mo's face was pale, and his expression was terrible; he looked like he was about to die.

After Jiang Qingyi entered the Golden Core Realm, Xiao Mo no longer needed to sacrifice his own lifespan to use the Heaven-Extending Technique on her.

However, over the past ten years, each use of the Heaven-Sustaining Technique has caused Xiao Mo great losses.

Moreover, as Jiang Qingyi's cultivation level increased, Xiao Mo used the Life Extension Technique on her more frequently, each time reducing her lifespan more severely.

Now, Xiao Mo feels that he might not even live for another thirty years.

Even if I live for another thirty years, plus the previous fourteen years.

All in all, it wouldn't exceed forty-five years.

I am not yet within the "fifty years" limit set by the Book of a Hundred Generations.

But does Xiao Mo regret it?

There's no way I can regret this.

If Xiao Mo were given another chance, he would still do the same thing.

Without the Heaven-Continuing Technique, Qingyi would never have become a top swordsmanship genius in the world.

Qingyi might not even be able to embark on the path of cultivation.

To Xiao Mo's relief, he used magic to forcibly conceal his poor complexion after each cultivation session.

In addition, I occasionally go on missions.

Every time he returned from a mission, Xiao Mo would deliberately dispel the concealment spell, making his face look very unpleasant.

Otherwise, if Jiang Qingyi finds out the truth...

Without even a second thought, she would rather die than let him use the Heaven-Extending Technique on her again.

She would even feel extremely guilty, which would eventually affect her Dao heart.

Then all my previous efforts would have been in vain.

Now, Xiao Mo only has one last thing left to do.

He still has a little bit of fighting power left in his body. After all, he is at the Nascent Soul stage and can continue to protect Jiang Qingyi.

Once Qingyi reaches the Nascent Soul Realm, I can do the last thing.

"I just hope that Qingyi won't blame me at that time."

Xiao Mo leaned against the bed and muttered to himself.

But as soon as Xiao Mo finished speaking, he couldn't help but shake his head with a smile.

By then, what difference will it make if Qingyi blames herself?

This was originally just an experience of life; Qingyi was never a real person.

With his departure from the Book of a Hundred Generations, this "world" came to a complete end.

Thinking of this, Xiao Mo did feel a little reluctant.

After all, the time I spent living in the Hundred Generations Book was real.

Over the course of more than ten years, he and Qingyi had spent every day together and had long since developed a bond like that of family.

"Sigh, I got too into character. Cough cough cough cough cough." Xiao Mo coughed a few more times, each time more violent than the last.

Xiao Mo quickly grabbed a handkerchief from the bedside table and covered his mouth.

The handkerchief was stained with bright red blood.

"Master."

When Jiang Qingyi walked in carrying the medicine, she saw her master coughing violently and quickly went over to him.

"Master, are you alright?"

Jiang Qingyi placed the medicine on the bedside table, knelt by the bed, and looked at her master with concern.

Over the years, my master's health has been deteriorating.

After I entered the Golden Core Realm, my master's life fire was like a candle flame in the wind, as if it would be extinguished at any moment.

Jiang Qingyi didn't know why.

His master said that his foundation was damaged during his mission.

At first, Jiang Qingyi did indeed think so.

Because his master always looked very unwell when he returned, he would go to the clinic for treatment.

But gradually, Jiang Qingyi felt that something was wrong.
