Hearing Liu Yanyi's words, the colorful-clothed woman had a good impression of her. She grinned at her and said, "Fellow Daoist Liu, aren't you afraid that the nun will go back and capture you? That treasure of hers is very strange, and she's on guard now. If I attack again, I might not be able to stop her."
Liu Yanyi smiled and shook her head. "It's fine. That senior used a treasure to capture me just now, which means that she doesn't have the confidence to stop the sword escape technique. That's why I dared to come back."
The colorful-clothed woman was stunned. After thinking about it again, it was indeed logical. However, to think of this in a critical moment, one had to be extremely calm and meticulous.
She couldn't help but stare at Liu Yanyi with her beautiful eyes wide open. She thought to herself, No wonder Master ordered me to secretly protect her. She really has a good eye for people and has never been wrong. This fellow Daoist will definitely be extraordinary in the future. Now that we've formed a good relationship, our sects will be considered friends.
As she was thinking, Liu Yanyi bowed to her again and said, "I haven't asked for your name yet."
The colorful-clothed woman didn't accept her bow and moved to the side. She smiled and said, "I'm a disciple of Perfected Cao. My surname is Lu and my name is Qingmei. Nowadays, the demonic sects are becoming more and more rampant in the Donghua Continent. Master is worried that it's not appropriate for you to return alone, so he ordered me to escort you."
Liu Yanyi's eyes lit up and revealed surprise. She then sighed and said, "So you're Senior Cao's disciple. I've benefited a lot from senior's guidance previously. I haven't thanked you yet, and I've troubled senior sister to send me back. I don't know how I can repay senior's care and concern."
Perfected Cao was a Yuanying elder of the Lishan Sect. She was originally from the Wei imperial family, but she wasn't from the same branch as the current Wei royal family. Due to her outstanding talent, she was taken in as a disciple by the current Patriarch of the Lishan Sect.
It was also because Liu Yanyi came to the territory of the Lishan Sect in search of medicine and met her by chance. Seeing that Liu Yanyi's talent and temperament were both extraordinary and extremely similar to her younger self, Perfected Cao had the intention of taking her in as a disciple.
However, after asking around, she found out that she was originally under the Qincang School and was the disciple of one of the top ten disciples, Zhang Yan. He couldn't help but feel that it was a pity, so he gave her a few pointers.
Because he really liked her, after Liu Yanyi left, he specially ordered Lu Qingmei to secretly escort her, just in case anything happened. At the same time, he could also do Zhang Yan a favor.
Lu Qingmei waved her hand. "It's just a small matter, don't worry about it, Daoist Liu."
Liu Yanyi smiled. "Senior Sister Lu, the Bright Nether Heavenly Lake is not far away, why don't you come to the manor and have a seat?"
Lu Qingmei shook her head and declined. "No, since you're safe, it's good enough. I still need to return to the cave residence to report on the completion of the task, so I won't disturb fellow Daoist's reunion. "
Liu Yanyi did not force him. They were both cultivators and had long lifespans. They would meet again in the future. She entrusted Lu Qingmei and Daoist Master Cao with a few words of blessing before bidding them farewell and returning to the Clear Nether Heavenly Lake.
In the small pot mirror, Zhang Yan was sitting on the top of the bamboo house with his eyes closed, circulating his Xuan Qi. In the small pot mirror, he had already deduced the Wood Elemental True Light technique and was now practicing it.
Suddenly, the mirror spirit came out and came to the front. She said happily, "Master, Liu Niangzi has returned and is waiting outside. She wants to see you."
Zhang Yan opened his eyes and smiled. "Yanyi has been gone for more than ten years, but she came back earlier than I expected. But she came back earlier than I expected. Go and bring her in to see me. "
The mirror spirit hurriedly accepted the order and went outside. She smiled at Liu Yanyi. "Liu Niangzi, please follow me."
He turned around, and as the mirror light flashed, Liu Yanyi felt a bright light in front of her. Then, she entered a place filled with fragrant trees, flowers, and a gurgling stream.
Even though she was Zhang Yan's eldest disciple, it was the first time she entered the small pot mirror. She unconsciously took a few more glances. She saw that the pond water was clear, the sky was blue, and the fragrance assailed her nostrils. Butterflies fluttered and fishes swam in the water. It was clearly a world of its own. She was amazed.
When she arrived at the bamboo house, she saw Zhang Yan sitting on the couch and looking at her with a smile. She hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed. "Disciple Liu Yanyi pays respect to Master and wishes for a long life."
Zhang Yan saw that her body was full of Qi of Dao. It was obvious that her cultivation had improved a lot since they parted. He raised his hand and said, "Disciple, get up quickly."
Liu Yanyi bowed again and stood up.
Zhang Yan asked gently, "Yanyi, what realm have you cultivated to now?"
Liu Yanyi bowed and answered truthfully, "Reporting to Master, disciple has reached the Burning Acupoint stage. Now I have opened twenty-four acupoints."
"Twenty-four acupoints. That's not easy."
Zhang Yan nodded slightly. The more acupoints a cultivator opened, the stronger the true fire and the greater the success of calcining the Jindan. He said, "Then you still need to work hard for a few more days. It won't be too late to condense the Jindan after you have opened a few more acupoints.
He pointed with his finger and a golden Talisman flew out. He said, "This is the Burning Acupoint and the various acupoints. You have to remember it and don't underestimate it."
When he opened thirty-six acupoints that day, it was due to fate. He had the Mind Penetrating Technique, so his corporeal body was not comparable to a normal cultivator. He also had the help of the remnant jade. He had to rely on himself to explore the acupoints and could not purely imitate it.
However, ever since he became one of the top ten disciples, he had read all the books in the Jinluo Courtyard. There was no lack of books that talked about the key to opening acupoints.
Those who could enter the Jinluo Courtyard to read books had to be at least in the Core Transformation Realm. Their status in the sect was not low, so there were some methods that were not hidden from him.
Even if Zhang Yan did not use it himself, it did not mean that the sect would not use it. That was why he paid attention to it that day and read through it once. He remembered many of the key points.
However, he would not use the experience of others.
One of the advantages he had was that he could repeatedly test the method in the remnant jade. His experiments were successful and successful, so he came up with a set of acupoint opening method. It could be said that this method could be passed down and become the sect's secret method.
Liu Yanyi relied on her innate talent to burn twenty-four acupoints. Later on, as her progress slowed down, she could vaguely feel that there might be a key point. Now that she saw Zhang Yan teaching her, she knew that it was a secret method. She held her breath and solemnly accepted it. Then, she knelt down and kowtowed to thank her master.
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "Disciple, stand up and talk."
Liu Yanyi stood up. She reached into the sachet and took out two porcelain bottles. She held them in her palm and said, "Before Master left, you told disciple to pay attention to the Metal and Fire Qi. Disciple did not dare to forget, so I paid special attention to it. I also relied on some luck to be able to gather all of them."
Zhang Yan's spirit was lifted. He waved his sleeve and a wisp of smoke flew out, sucking the two porcelain bottles over. He opened them and said, "Not bad, this is the Metal Essence Qi of Gengxin and Fire Essence Qi of Gengxin. Disciple, you have done a great service this time."
Liu Yanyi's eyebrows were slightly worried. She bowed and said, "Serving Master is a disciple's responsibility. I dare not claim credit. It's just that these two qis are extremely rare. Disciple only has a little. Is it enough for Master?"
Zhang Yan looked at the two jade bottles and said with a smile, "It's enough."
He did not want to cultivate the Taixuan True Light to the highest level. He only needed to be able to use it a little, then he could reverse the nine mantras and use the power of the Dan Sha to refine it again. From then on, he would be able to get rid of the barriers and achieve a mystic technique.
His disciple returned home and obtained the last two qis of the Five Elements True Light. He was also in a good mood, so he asked Liu Yanyi about her experiences along the way.
Liu Yanyi also answered attentively and told him about the current situation in the Donghua Continent.
This conversation between master and disciple actually took half a day. Zhang Yan then asked about the origin of the Metal and Fire Qi. Just Now, he knew that the Metal Essence Qi of Gengxin was a gift from a female cultivator of the Yuan Yang Sect, but Liu Yanyi did not know her name.
As for the Fire Qi of Gengxin and Ding, it was obtained by Liu Yanyi in a Feizhou Celestial Market in the south of the Donghua Continent. Fortunately, she brought a lot of spirit shells with her before she left, and she spent everything to buy it. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was luck.
If it were not for the Qi of Fire Essence here, Liu Yanyi would probably have to delay for a few more years. Just Now, she was able to return home.
In the end, Liu Yanyi thought about it and decided to tell Zhang Yan about the attack when she returned home.
It was not that she was bullied and wanted to complain to her master. Back then, when Zhang Yan was not yet one of the top ten disciples in the sect, when he went out to look for medicine, the situation she faced was many times more difficult than what she was facing now. But she still made it through, and she was not that delicate. She was just worried that this matter might be harmful to the sect, so she had to mention it.
After listening to her, Zhang Yan thought for a while, then nodded and said, "I already know about this matter. Go back and cultivate well. In a few days, I will personally protect you and help you condense the medicine into the core."
Liu Yanyi bowed and said, "Yes, Master. I will take my leave."
After sending this disciple out of the Small Pot Mirror, Zhang Yan thought about it and shook his head slightly. It was unlikely that Perfected Qin had sent someone from his sect to make things difficult for his disciple.
No matter what, Perfected Qin was still a Perfected Grotto-heaven. Even if he really wanted to plot against him, why would he cast his eyes on his disciple?
Moreover, it would be too damaging to his identity, and if word got out, he would not be able to keep his face.
Therefore, he guessed that it was very likely that Yue Longshan had taken matters into her own hands.
However, there was no smoke without fire. He could also sense the hidden hostility that the Glittering Grotto-heaven had towards him behind this matter.
He and Perfected Peng had helped each other, so it was reasonable that Perfected Qin did not like him. Zhang Yan had already expected this.
However, logically speaking, even if he wanted to make things difficult for him, he should have waited for the right opportunity to act. It was a little puzzling that he had chosen this time.
He thought about it carefully. These days, he had rarely left the mansion. The only time he did was to see Sect Leader Qin.
This thought only lasted for a while before he came to a realization.
The problem was very likely this!
Sect Leader Qin had promised him to go to the Floating Heavenly Palace to cultivate. It was very likely that Perfected Qin was unhappy with him because of this.
Thinking about it this way, he cleared up his thoughts.
There was also the matter of Xiao Ao. Now that he thought about it, it was probably related.
Zhang Yan vaguely seemed to see a large net covering him.
He sneered. Indeed, the benefits could not be obtained by him without any reason. It seemed that he had to go through some twists and turns.
However, there was no need to think so much about it now. The most important thing right now was to cultivate the remaining two True Lights.
After deducing the cultivation method, he could refine the Five Elements Mysterious Skill into one!
After that, he would condense the True Seal of Mana and raise his strength to another level. Only then would he have more confidence to speak.
