723 Survival or Living
Saying that, Zhang Xiaohan didn't really visit Xia Chenxi, Zhang Xiaohan didn't think it was a big deal about her identity as the honorary hall master, and she didn't really plan to participate in the affairs of the sect.
However, she still sent a message to Jin Tinghai, informing him that she had already been released, and if there was nothing to do, she would be in retreat soon.
Jin Tinghai replied a little later, and agreed with her to visit Sect Master Xia the next day.
Xiaobao and the fire fox didn't know what to do again, and suddenly they were idle, Zhang Xiaohan was very uncomfortable, she took a turn in the cave, the medicine field was well cared for, the elixirs were very strong, and the gold-devouring ants also stayed in the quiet room honestly, with no intention of re-evolving or reproducing, but the refining crystals spit out this time were not colorless and transparent, but with red and black colors.
After turning around, there was nothing she needed to do in the cave - the monk's life was simple, and she didn't need to eat, drink, and Lazar, and Zhang Xiaohan didn't need to earn spirit stones by herself, so she was really idle.
Can't be idle.
I should have seen the hibiscus, but ...... Is it convenient now? Has Mu Hibiscus already taken the Changing Spirit Pill, maybe at a critical juncture in his cultivation......
They all walked to the door, and Zhang Xiaohan turned back.
On the second day, Zhang Xiaohan went to Xia Chenxi's cave with Jin Tinghai as promised.
This is the third time I have been to Xia Chenxi's cave, but it is the first time to come with Jin Tinghai, I feel that Zhang Xiaohan and Jin Tinghai are becoming more and more familiar, Jin Tinghai is very willing to tell her about the recent situation of Wuji Sect, and there are many things that Zhang Xiaohan does not know.
Zhang Xiaohan's sources of information are now mainly Xiaobao, and then Fan Xiaofan and Wu Xingyun, the news that these three people heard should be known to all the high-level monks of the Wuji Sect, and it was made public, although Zhang Xiaohan had no intention of participating in the internal affairs of the Wuji Sect, but she was also willing to hear about it.
On the way to Xia Chenxi Cave Mansion, Jin Tinghai said simply, now the Lingwu Continent is the same as before, the monks are cultivating step by step, and the entire continent is calm, but secretly, the competition for resources is intensifying.
Wuji Sect is now on the cusp of the Lingwu Continent, and if the monks of the whole continent want to go to the Xuanhuang Continent, they must use the long-distance teleportation array built by the Wuji Sect in the forbidden land of the back mountain, and the use of this teleportation array is a large expense, and invisibly, the Wuji Sect has mastered the movements of the monks of various sects.
"They also want to build a teleportation array by themselves to bypass the Wuji Sect," Jin Tinghai pouted: "If there were no rumors of a hundred-year catastrophe, they would really do that, but now, every piece of high-grade spirit stone and high-grade materials is precious, compared to the harvest in the Xuanhuang Continent, it would be more than worth the loss to establish a teleportation array alone." ”
Zhang Xiaohan nodded: "Yes, but in this way, it is impossible for these sects not to complain about the Wuji Sect, especially after seeing the huge boundless sea, as well as the Demon Beast Forest, and the Wuji Sect has recruited so many disciples from the Xuanhuang Continent." ”
Jin Tinghai said: "So, our Wuji Sect is trying our best to make friends with the three major sects, you should know, the cultivation of that genius monk of the Three Temples has improved by leaps and bounds in the past two years, and it has advanced from the late stage of the Jiedan to the late stage of the Yuan Infant." ”
Zhang Xiaohan said softly, in two years, she has improved so much, she suddenly thought of something: "What about Xia Qinglian?" What about her cultivation? ”
"Her cultivation has retreated to the peak of the late Yuan Infant period." Jin Tinghai glanced at Zhang Xiaohan as he spoke: "This is a good thing for her." ”
Yes, if it is from the perspective of cultivation, but if it is from the perspective of a woman, Zhang Xiaohan thought of Xia Qinglian's pure eyes, and I don't know if she will have such pure eyes when they meet again.
While talking, the two of them arrived in front of Xia Chenxi's cave, and the fog was shrouded in front of the cave, but as soon as the two of them landed, a passage appeared inside.
Jin Tinghai is also a monk who has been to Xia Chenxi's cave mansion many times, and Zhang Xiaohan also found out that Xia Chenxi is not willing to stay in the main hall, he spends most of his time in his cave mansion, that is, to discuss matters in the sect with the monks, and it is also in his own cave mansion.
The concubine who made tea was changed again, Zhang Xiaohan and Jin Tinghai sat in the guest seat, and Xia Chenxi sent others away.
"Listening to Jin Daoyou, Elder Zhang still has to prepare for retreat?" Xia Chenxi took a sip of the teacup and looked at Zhang Xiaohan: "Elder Zhang is only in his forties and has a longevity of two thousand years before a normal monk ascends, you still have such a long time, why do you still have to retreat and cultivate so hard?" ”
Xia Chenxi asked abruptly, but Zhang Xiaohan was not mentally prepared at all.
She had never thought of this problem, no, she had thought of it before, but at that time, her cultivation was insufficient, and when she thought about it, she just thought that when her cultivation was enough to protect herself, she didn't have to worry so much about being afraid, but she never thought of what she could do without cultivating and refining talismans for nearly two thousand years.
After thinking for a while, she shook her head and said, "I used to feel that there was not enough time, during the refining period, I was just a monk who couldn't stop the Tao, and any monk could crush me lightly, so I could only practice desperately, and even the time I slept was spent on cultivation." ”
"After building the foundation, I knew that the foundation building was not enough, and the cultivation during the foundation building period could not protect myself at all, and at that time, I offended the monks of the foundation period, and every day I had to spend as much time as possible to cultivate, and later, I became a monk, but the danger never left me, and every time my cultivation was upgraded, I would find that my cultivation was far from enough."
Zhang Xiaohan's voice was a little melancholy, and she smiled bitterly: "Over the years, I have spent most of my time in retreat and cultivation, and it seems that retreat and cultivation have become all my life. ”
Zhang Xiaohan said very briefly, but she could feel the hardships of the past few decades Xia Chenxi and Jin Tinghai, especially when Zhang Xiaohan said in the end, when she didn't know how to pass the long words, the loneliness and loneliness in her tone fell deeply into the hearts of the two.
Monks are lonely, every monk who sets foot in the world of cultivating immortals is lonely, but at the same time, the life of monks is also colorful, they have their social structure, and they also have their own life.
But Zhang Xiaohan didn't, thinking of Zhang Xiaohan's life in Wuji Sect for the past three or four years, Xia Chenxi and Jin Tinghai couldn't help but glance at each other, except for the half a year in the Magic Forbidden Land, Zhang Xiaohan was almost all in retreat.
First made zuò thunder talismans, then went to the library to read, came back from the magic forbidden land to make zuò spirit talismans, and then to the library to read, and then retreated, she closed her in a small cave, she didn't think that she was only in her forties, and there were so many longevity?
The words that were originally on his lips stopped, Xia Chenxi smiled: "Elder Zhang, although there is a saying that the Lingwu Continent will experience a hundred years of catastrophe, but after all, after the catastrophe, we monks will continue the life of our monks, Elder Zhang's cultivation is now at the peak of the middle stage of the god transformation, in my opinion, Elder Zhang's cultivation should not be improved in the short term." ”
Zhang Xiaohan turned his head sideways and sent an inquiring look.
"The first point is that if you want to improve your cultivation, you must also be able to keep up with the improvement of your state of mind, and the two complement each other, so that the improved cultivation will be stable and solid, and it is not easy to appear demons."
Zhang Xiaohan nodded, she felt that her mood had improved during this retreat, although her cultivation had not changed at all, but she felt that the whole person was a little different from before.
"The second point, once the cultivation breaks through the god transformation period and enters the god cultivation period, then the heavenly tribulation will come at any time, if you don't prepare the magic weapon to deal with the heavenly tribulation in advance, then, in the face of the heavenly tribulation, you will only have the end of the soul scattered."
Xia Chenxi spoke mercilessly, and what he said was also the truth, if Zhang Xiaohan still took care of her own retreat and cultivation and didn't think about the problem of the Heavenly Tribulation, then once her cultivation was improved again, what was waiting for her would definitely be the end she just said.
Zhang Xiaohan still nodded, she didn't know at all that even if she advanced to the cultivation stage, she would not experience the Heavenly Tribulation, her body had undergone the Cutting of the Scriptures and the marrow in the Linglong Immortal Pagoda, and the impurities were removed, and she did not need the punishment of the thunder.
Zhang Xiaohan didn't know it himself, and of course Xia Chenxi wouldn't know either, he saw that Zhang Xiaohan kept nodding his head, his face was full of approval, so he continued:
"Third, even if you get through the catastrophe - well, it's not impossible, it's no secret that you're gifted."
Xia Chenxi said that she looked at Zhang Xiaohan, the corners of Zhang Xiaohan's mouth crooked, and she smiled bitterly again, of course she knew that it was not a secret.
"So, even if you survive the catastrophe and soar to the previous session, how can you survive in the previous session? With your temperament, you will definitely not be willing to be attached to others, but once you step into the previous session, it will be like you and I have just entered the realm of cultivating immortals, do you plan to repeat your experience in this session in the previous session? ”
Zhang Xiaohan shook her head, the experience of this life, in just over thirty years, almost all of them were spent in fear and retreat, she realized the difference between survival and life for the first time, she wanted life, not survival.
"So, does Elder Zhang have any plans for the next arrangement?" Xia Chenxi asked again.
Zhang Xiaohan was stunned for a while, what Xia Chenxi said was not unreasonable, if she didn't enter the god transformation period, she would still have two thousand years of life in this life, would she have to stay in retreat, either making talismans or refining weapons?
Then I chatted with Xiaobao and Firefox in the cave, and chatted with Fan Xiaofan, Wu Xingyun, and Mu Hibiscus when I was bored, is that so?
Is she really serious about her future life?
After a while, Zhang Xiaohan came back to his senses, looked at Xia Chenxi, and couldn't help but bring loneliness and loneliness in his tone: "What else can I arrange?" ”
The hall was silent. R1152
