When a Western Fantasy Witch Traveled to the Immortal Cultivation World and Became the King of Scrol

Chapter 43 Zhou Juanjuan's Retreat
After spending some time with his little apprentice, he realized that this little girl's expression management was not yet well-trained. Whatever was on her mind, it would usually show on her face.

"Master still has work to do, so there's no need to worry about this right now."

It's no wonder that after seeing those dozen or so Jindan monks who were about to die of old age, they must be worried that he wouldn't live for many more days.

"Master, but you..."

"What's wrong with me? I'm just as bad as them. I can't even reach the late stage of the Spiritual Transformation?"

Speaking of this, Long Aotian was rarely proud of himself, and he crossed his arms across his chest, showing off. After all, the strange thing about this world is that there is generally no problem with normal cultivation and advancement before the Spirit Transformation stage.

But once you break through the Nascent Soul stage and reach the Spiritual Transformation stage, it will be extremely difficult to advance to the next level.

Even Long Aotian himself, a genius of their generation, took more than a thousand years to reach the late stage of the Spirit Transformation.

There is no need to mention the others, many of whom cannot reach the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation even in their entire lives.

It seems that they are all in the stage of spiritual transformation, but in the early, middle and late stages, there is a difference between heaven and earth.

"Then tell me yourself, are you sure you can ascend to heaven?" Zhou Ling's face fell, and he suddenly felt itchy and wanted to learn how to interpret the hexagrams right away.

The face of the world-destroying demon that she saw in her epiphany, her master said, could not be drawn on paper, but she drew it anyway.

Just like the strange cloud shape that he saw in the sky after his epiphany, it could not be drawn on paper. The part that could be drawn turned out to be the death hexagram, which corresponded to the destruction of the world by the demons.

There must be a connection between the two!

Seeing that his master looked embarrassed and did not answer for a long time, Zhou Ling had an idea in his mind.

If what Suo Wu saw was truly a warning from Heaven, and if the clouds he saw by chance in the sky were also part of the warning, then it meant that, at least, Heaven in this world was on the side of them, the human cultivators!

"Master, I want to go into seclusion for a while."

"How can a young cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage go into seclusion? Do you know what seclusion is for?" Long Aotian was impressed by his little disciple, who could do whatever he wanted.

The shorter the time of cultivation and the lower the level of cultivation, the faster the growth rate will be, almost to the extent that it can be seen with the naked eye.

Although a long time had passed, he still remembered that when he was in the Qi Refining Stage, he practiced meditation diligently every day, and his cultivation improved noticeably day by day. Within a month, he successfully advanced to the second stage of Qi Refining, which shocked the entire cultivation world at that time...

Those were all past glories, so it's better not to mention them. Now that he has been washed up on the beach by his disciple, the new wave, he can't afford to lose face if he mentions them again.

In short, there is no need for beginners to go into seclusion. The normal speed of cultivation and advancement is already very fast. If it exceeds this limit, it is easy to make the foundation unstable, which will not be of much benefit to future practice.

"Yes, Aunt Fei told me that after enlightenment, one will gain some insights. At this time, it is beneficial to retreat and give oneself sufficient time to digest the insights slowly. Now, I feel that I have gained some insights, so I want to retreat."

"Then tell your mother yourself." His disciple had some realizations and wanted to go into seclusion, so he naturally wouldn't stop her. But shouldn't she tell her mother about this kind of thing first?

"I don't dare. My mother will definitely not want to let me go. If she hugs me and cries, I won't want to let her go either. What should I do if I don't want to go into seclusion? It will be Master who will speak for me."

Zhou Ling's little head shook like a wave drum.

Long Aotian shook along with her, and the scene of the two of them shaking their heads crazily was hilarious even from a distance.

Zhou Li, who was looking at this side from afar, couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Am I so ignorant?" She laughed out loud, and she had no intention of hiding it any longer. She walked to Zhou Ling with Daniu in her hand and slapped her on the head.

"Mom, you're going to knock me silly!" Zhou Ling was dissatisfied. This time, her mother used some force, and it hurt a little. "Lesson, next time you have something, don't try to escape, tell me, take the initiative."

"Know it!"

Zhou Ling rubbed her head with one hand and touched Daniu's head with the other.

"Mom, I'm going to retreat, and you can't be lazy. You must practice at least one Great Circulation of Heaven before going to bed every day. Oh, and don't forget to feed Daniu the Spirit Beast Pills every day. When I come out of retreat, maybe Daniu will be able to speak human language."

The big bull seemed to understand. It mooed twice and nudged Zhou Ling's palm with its big nose.

"It's going to take a long time?" Zhou Li, who pretended to be strong, could no longer keep the calm expression on his face when he heard his daughter say that by the time she came out, Daniu might be able to speak human language.

"I don't know. I want to take advantage of this faint feeling of enlightenment in my heart and try to move forward. With my lousy talent, if I don't take advantage of this opportunity, I don't know how long it will take to advance to the foundation-building stage."

Although she is only at the second stage of Qi Refining now and still has a long way to go to build her foundation, so she is not in a hurry, but can she really not be anxious?

The more he understood the knowledge of the world of immortal cultivation, the less confident Zhou Ling, a loser with five spiritual roots, felt about his own path to advancement.

The early bird catches the worm. No matter how hard she tries, the feathers on her wings have to grow fully before she can fly far enough.

Although the hardware conditions are not good enough, if she is lucky enough to meet the east wind, she will definitely spread her wings and rush forward with the east wind until the wind stops.

No one knows a girl better than her mother, Zhou Liming understood what his daughter meant.

"Go, Danniu, I will take good care of you." With tears in his eyes, he had to say goodbye.

Fortunately, they also had a retreat stone chamber on Zhijian Peak, where her daughter could go in to practice. She and her daughter were only separated by a wall, so it wasn't too far.

The first secluded retreat on the road to becoming an immortal, and also the first ray of east wind she had borrowed, began from then on.

But no one expected that the ray of east wind Zhou Ling borrowed would blow for so long...

Winter goes and spring comes, the year changes again.

Zhou Li and Daniu used to squat outside the stone room where their daughter was in seclusion every day waiting.

But as time went on, his daughter didn't make any noise inside, so Zhou Li couldn't stay there any longer. He contacted Lan Fei to go out and play together. Only Da Niu would occasionally stroll to the door of the stone chamber and eat grass with his head down.

Zhou Ling, who switched to the invincible scroll king mode, didn't notice the passage of time at all.

The small goal she set for herself was, of course, to use the subtle connection between her heart and the Way of Heaven to thoroughly understand the divination books and jade slips given to her by Patriarch Chi Xiao.

Divination and hexagrams, heaven has the final say. If you want to learn this, you naturally have to rely on your own connection with the laws of nature to be most accurate.

While studying, you cannot neglect practicing. When you are hungry, you can take fasting pills. To be honest, although these pills don’t taste good, they are really filling.

During this retreat, she even saved time for eating, not wasting a single minute. Her cultivation level was steadily increasing, and her divination skills were also making great progress.

After finishing reading the last jade slip, Zhou Ling opened his eyes.

It felt like I had been sitting in this stone chamber for a long time.

The faint light of the night pearl illuminated the small stone chamber. Zhou Ling almost jumped up when he turned around and saw the timekeeping device placed at the door before his retreat.

No, it feels like not that much time has passed. Then why does the timer show that more than a year has passed?
