Encounter Taotie by chance at the beginning and practice longevity skills

In the living room of the head of the Xiao family.

The living room is decorated both quaintly and luxuriously.

Exquisite landscape paintings hang in the hall, and a wooden table is placed against the wall. The table is filled with various exquisite tea sets and several plates of exquisite snacks.

There is a light fragrance of tea and agarwood in the air, which is refreshing.

There are two chairs on both sides of the table. Sitting on one chair is Xiao Yunling, sipping tea with a smile.

Sitting on the other chair was Mo Yuan, who was also drinking the tea Xiao Yunling handed him with a look of enjoyment.

Mo Yuan took a sip and then praised: "This tea is so good. How come it has a refreshing fragrance, a mellow taste, and a sweet aftertaste."

Xiao Yunling laughed: "The Mo clan elder seems to like him very much. Ruoxue, bring back fifty pounds for the Mo clan elder."

When Mo Yuan heard Xiao Yunling's words, he waved his hands quickly and said: "Don't dare, don't dare, the Xiao family master must have something to come to me this time. The Xiao family master might as well just tell him."

Xiao Yunling laughed: "Hahahahahahahaha, the Mo clan boss is really happy."

"What does your Mo family need?"

Mo Yuan almost spit out his tea after hearing this.

"Cough cough cough...."

Mo Yuan said: "Master Xiao, why can't I understand you well?"

Xiao Yunling smiled and said: "Okay, stop pretending. There is no one else in this room. You should know my request. I want the secret of that sword."

"And I am now the head of the Xiao family, do you understand? I know all the secrets of the Xiao family."

"I advise you not to be ungrateful, otherwise one day I will fish in troubled waters and become the next young master of your Mo family. Do you think you can tell the difference?"

"Would you choose to exchange secrets for secrets now, or wait for me..."

Mo Yuan broke into a cold sweat after hearing this.

He knew that this inexplicable senior was right. If he wanted to pretend, he might not be able to find out. And judging from the fact that he has been the acting head of the Xiao family for twenty years, this senior's acting skills are really good.

At least the Xiao family didn't notice anything unusual.

And his own strength is outstanding.

Such people are indeed difficult to deal with.

Mo Yuan said: "Senior, I am not the head of the Mo family. There are some things that only the head of the family and the ancestors know. This..."

Xiao Yunling said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, I still have time. But you have to discuss it quickly."

Mo Yuan was well aware of the subtlety of his situation. Although Xiao Yunling's attitude was amiable, the underlying meaning was firm and unquestionable. He nodded silently, having made a decision in his mind.

"Senior, I understand what you mean. I will go back to discuss with the head of the family and ancestors, and give you a satisfactory reply as soon as possible." Mo Yuan stood up, with a bit of respect and helplessness in his tone.

Xiao Yunling smiled and waved, "Go ahead, I believe the Mo family will make a wise choice."

Xiao Yunling looked at Jiang Ruoxue again and said: "Ruoxue, give tea to the Mo clan elder."

After saying that, Jiang Ruoxue handed a storage ring to Mo Yuan, who was about to stand up and leave.

Jiang Ruoxue also smiled and said in a gentle and respectful tone: "Old Mo clan, please accept it. This tea was researched by our young master himself and cannot be bought outside."

"Thank you, Miss Jiang. I appreciate your kindness." Mo Yuan nodded in thanks. After saying that, he left the Xiao family compound without looking back.

I'm still thinking:

These two are so terrible. Smiling and saying scary words. What's even more frightening is that there is no one else behind these two people.

Watching Mo Yuan leave in a hurry, Lei Ze also came down from upstairs.

"Master, will they really trade a fool's secret?"

Lei Ze said: "I don't know, it just depends on whether Mo Yuan can convince the head of the Mo family, but I think Mo Yuan can, let's wait and see."

Jiang Ruoxue, who was made up by Xianmeng, said: "Brother Xianren, as long as the head of the Mo family has no problem with his mind, he should not refuse."

"Where can we find Yi Tianxing's secrets in the future?"

"We have been senior officials of Cangyan Dynasty and Tianling Dynasty, but we have not found any information related to Yi Tianxing."

Lei Ze shook his head: "The Cangyan Dynasty is not considered a high-level official, and they haven't come into contact with any valuable information."

"We in the Tianling Dynasty are indeed at the top."

Lei Ze looked at the general who had transformed from Xiao Yunling into a woman and said, "General, will you reach the Nascent Soul stage next time you spin a cocoon?"

The general nodded: "Yes, Master."

Lei Ze asked curiously: "Hey, can you form a ten-turn golden elixir in a cocoon?"

"Of course not," said the general.

"Why?" Lei Ze and Xian Meng said in unison.

The general told the two of them the principle of turning into a cocoon with a proud look on his face.

"You two, listen carefully to me, pick up your notebook and take notes carefully."

Lei Ze and Xian Meng actually picked up their notebooks and started recording them.

The general continued: "Ahem..."

"The general's small classroom has officially started."

"After three cocoon transformations by this general, my understanding of the race of the Nine Heavens Phantom Cat has deepened."

"Our species can freely reorganize our essence in the cocoon, that is, meridians, skin, internal organs, etc."

"And every time we emerge from the cocoon, our ability to control the essence will increase."

"You two know this, right?"

Lei Ze nodded.

Xian Meng, like a good student, raised her hand and replied: "Yes, Mr. General, the first time you formed a cocoon, you transformed from a cat into a human form. The second time, you can become someone else." And the third time, you will be able to control the changes in the golden marrow and divine bones that you failed to control the second time."

The general laughed: "Not bad, Xian Meng, you are very good."

"And you also know that I usually can't breathe in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to make my golden elixir bigger like you, and the same is true for Qi Hai."

"Even after I learn Samadhi True Fire, I can only use Samadhi True Fire to replenish my essence, and I can't strengthen my Qi like you."

"Only in the cocoon can the Qi absorbed and transformed be enlarged and compressed. I have tried this before, but it can no longer be compressed after nine turns."

"For our race, nine turns is the limit."

"At that time, I saw that the shell outside the cocoon was almost losing its original vitality, so I stopped. Then I walked out."

After hearing this, Lei Ze fell into deep thought:

The way of heaven is really balanced. It gives the generals and their race the ability to move the essence freely, so it will not make them good at controlling Qi.

If he hadn't eaten so many sea snakes before, and if the General and I had given him some gluttonous instincts, the General would probably have even worse control over Qi now.

And they can't freely breathe in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to strengthen themselves like us, and if they compress themselves to the ninth level, they can no longer be compressed. This is probably also a limitation of heaven.

Just like us humans, no matter what happens, we cannot change our appearance freely like the general's race.

This is why we have practiced dual cultivation so many times, but I don't have the general's ability to change my appearance at will. This is probably also a limitation of heaven.

At most, I can only move the Yuanjing in Guanyuan.

It seems that the abilities of each race are limited within a certain range.

The way of heaven is to do more harm than enough but not enough.

Not every creature will be too strong, nor will every species be too weak.

Interesting and interesting.
