Showdown, I am the koi of the world of immortality

This is all Fangyuan has to say about Long Xikui.

He didn't go into details. One was because there was something about Sheng Gaoyang, and the sect would feel guilty after all, so it wouldn't be too difficult for the two of them. The other was that the purpose of the Longxikui was a secret within the sect. Without Xue Shiqian's instruction, he It’s inconvenient to say more.

But Tu Nian is not heartless. Fangyuan has already reminded her of this. Naturally, she can also guess that there is probably some knowledge in the dragon's breath sunflower. Along the way, she kept the words "tell the truth" and carefully I thought a lot.

The three of them arrived at the ivory tower all the way. Several elders and heads of the sect were already waiting. Fangyuan was just leading the way today, and after bowing, he stepped aside.

As a junior, Chu Qiurong did not say anything about waiting for the elders to ask questions. After Fangyuan retreated, he followed up with a clear mind and took the initiative to offer his hands to everyone in the seat, "Jiuxue Valley disciple Chu Qiu Rong and his junior sister Tu Nian met with the sect master and elders."

This small calculation has greatly won the favor of several elders. Xue Shiqian did the same. He raised his hand to signal him to excuse himself and said with a kind smile, "I haven't seen your master for a long time. How is he doing lately?"

"Everything is fine. It's just that I've been busy with things lately and I can't spare the time to visit the sect master. Every time Master mentions this, I always feel deeply regretful."

Chu Qiurong often visited various sects with Nie Yanchen and Jin Nanfeng. Under the influence of what he heard and saw, he started to speak polite words, and soon started chatting with Xue Shiqian.

Normally, Tu Nian would never listen to Chelulu's words like this.

However, at this time, she was listening to the conversation between the two with all her attention. She was staring intently at the speaker in the seat, with one thought in her mind: This old boy looks like her university professor!

It was no exaggeration at all. The moment she entered the hall and saw Xue Shiqian, she thought she had broken through some dimensional wall. When she saw him talking freely, she even had the illusion of returning to college life.

Just when she was shocked, Chu Qiurong had already finished chatting with Xue Shiqian, and was the first to mention the matter of studying.

After explaining the matter in a few words, he quickly brought the topic to Tu Nian. Tu Nian came to his senses only after hearing his call and responded in a hurry, but he didn't understand the situation at all.

Seeing that she was obviously distracted, Chu Qiurong sighed inwardly, and quickly sent a message to remind her: "We are talking about the learning formation, please be more distracted."

Tu Nian listened to the advice, immediately corrected his attitude, and respectfully raised his hand to Xue Shiqian, "Sect Master Xue, please speak."

Xue Shiqian's expression remained unchanged, and he still looked at her with a kind smile, "Since Little Friend Tu wants to come to our sect, how much do you know about our cultivators?"

Hearing that this "professor" seemed to be planning to check his pre-class preparation, Tu Nian felt a familiar fear in his heart.

She did not dare to open her mouth, but thought about it again and again before saying: "Junior has little contact with Zhenxiu. He only knows that Zhenxiu practices split formations, formulas, and combined strikes. It aims to understand the operations of Tai Chi, Yin and Yang, the Five Elements, and Bagua." Principle, in order to achieve the state of taking advantage of the power of God's will and obeying God's will."

After carefully reciting the book she had read a few days ago, Tu Nian's back was already sweating. When she looked up again, she said: "So in the junior's understanding, the so-called formation cultivation is probably the method of formulating rules. The rest is not clear."

Such a tone attracted a slightly surprised look from Chu Qiurong.

Is it an illusion? His little junior sister seems to have become more polite?

Xue Shiqian was also refreshed, but he was attracted by Tu Nian's last words.

"The way rules are formulated..."

Chewing on this rather innovative description, he sat up straight and looked at Tu Nian expectantly, "Since my little friend can talk about this, I must have some understanding of the way of formation. I wonder if I can do it in the palace." Put two or three formations on the lining so that an old man like me can open his eyes?"

Everyone who is familiar with Xue Shiqian knows that he loves talent like a thirsty person. This comment is just to take the opportunity to see what Tu Nian's background is like. However, Tu Nian, who was preconceived, felt his scalp numb when he heard what he said.

After taking the pre-test and taking the practical test, this person is really not her professor! ?Hanging her head in fear, she said politely: "Junior has only dabbled in a little bit, and I really don't dare to practice in front of the seniors. It is better for me to let the junior study under the disciples for a while, and then ask the seniors for advice."

This wording and attitude shocked Chu Qiurong.

Only now did he feel sure that what happened just now was not an illusion. His little junior sister, the treasure of the family, had somehow become a good boy, with such exquisite orifices, it was as if she was a different person.

Chu Qiurong couldn't put the confusion on her face, she was holding it in so much that she felt uncomfortable. She could only secretly guess whether she was being good because of Long Xikui's matter, or whether she was deliberately trying to please her in order to study.

It's a pity that Tu Nian didn't know what he was thinking, and couldn't tell him that this was a kind of bloodline suppression that was as deep as the bones. It was completely reasonable for him to not just be obedient, but to kneel down.

Xue Shiqian didn't know the key. After listening to Tu Nian's answer, he just thought that she was a good child who had a deep understanding of Taoist cultivators and respected her teachers. Various expressions of relief and appreciation suddenly appeared on her face.

Regarding her "modest" response, he let her go without any surprise. After all, she still had to stay in the sect for half a month, so he always had the opportunity to see this matter.

Looking at the two people in front of the hall like this, Xue Shiqian couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Nie Yanchen was not only a talented disciple like Jin Nanfeng, but also now had such a sensible disciple. He was really lucky.

Of course, this emotion did not last too long. As Jie Wen beside him gave a long cough that was meant to remind him, Xue Shiqian calmly calmed down and said slowly: "Speaking of which, I have something to ask you two. .”

"As for this question, it's not that I, the old man, really want to argue with you. It's just that it concerns the sect, and the sect has to have a reason no matter what. You don't have to be too nervous, just answer yes."

Finally down to business.

Tu Nian thought for a moment and quickly exchanged glances with Chu Qiurong. The latter understood and moved half a step forward without leaving a trace, "Sect Master, please speak."

Nodding with satisfaction, Xue Shiqian went straight to the point, "Did you two pull out the dragon's breath plant in the north of Qianji Lake?"

Chu Qiurong said truthfully: "Yes."

"Don't you know that the dragon's breath sunflower is a marine spiritual plant, and it is impossible for it to appear in these waters for nothing? When you pulled it out later, didn't you think about why it was there?"

When this matter was brought up, Chang Jie Wen couldn't help himself. He couldn't help asking questions, and his tone couldn't hide his impatience. He wanted to say it again, but Xue Shiqian beside him had a slightly heavy breath and glanced sideways at him. Chang Jie Wen had no choice, so he had to He closed his mouth angrily.

Xue Shiqian's move was originally because he didn't want to put too much pressure on the two of them. When he asked slowly, Chu Qiurong had no intention of evading the problem at all. He said without being humble or arrogant: "What Elder Xie said is extremely true."

"We also considered this issue at the beginning, but when we were waiting at the dragon's breath sunflower, we didn't see anyone guarding it for a long time, or any slogans appeared, so we thought that the dragon's breath sunflower was an ownerless spiritual plant. Dig it up.”

"Later, the disciples who guarded the lake said that it belonged to your sect, and we immediately returned it. We never had any intention of exclusivity. All the disciples who guarded the lake that day can attest to this."

As a grower of dragon's breath sunflower, Xue Shiqian knew that what Chu Qiurong said was completely true.

Because of the existence of the immortal formation, the more precious the spiritual plant is, the more extremely rare spiritual objects it needs to be sacrificed to pull it out. And the thousand-year-old dragon's breath sunflower is already considered to be the best material. How can it be pulled out? It requires a spiritual object of excellent quality or above.

People who come to Qianji Lake to fish for spiritual plants will definitely not wander around with a high-quality spiritual object; people who carry high-quality spiritual objects with them will not be able to do this.

Therefore, this dragon's breath sunflower has been unattended since it has grown for thousands of years. If someone accidentally encounters it, it is reasonable to assume that it is an ownerless spiritual plant.

But thinking of this, Xue Shiqian became even more strange. With a frown, he asked Chu Qiurong: "What spiritual object did you two use to break this immortal formation?"
