I didn't expect that I was the heartthrob.

That lightning seemed familiar.

How could two people who have lived for over a hundred years be so ignorant? This kind of thunder tribulation should have been caused by several people advancing at the same time.

I guess the two standing in the middle have also established their foundation.

Xuan Mingzi didn't want to bother him anymore, so he took Ling Yebai and flew to Xuantian Sword Sect, reporting to his senior brother about what he had seen in the past few days in various sects.

After Xuan Mingzi left, the leader of Tian Yan Sect, Taoist Yanshan, looked at Ling Yao.

That look was quite stern, and it also released the pressure of the Mahayana stage in a very unkind way. Lingyao knelt down involuntarily, "Disciple will definitely practice well and will never let Master down."

"Yeah." Taoist Yanshan left after saying this. Lingyao looked at her master's majestic back and for the first time in her life, she felt a little regretful.

Is it wise to join the Tianyan Sect? She remembered that Yun Tiannan always raised them in a free-range manner and was kind and lenient to them...

Ah, there was no going back. She had to keep moving forward, and she had to be better than them all.

Lingyao stood up and flew to the trial platform.

Gu Lan was very happy to see that his fellow apprentices had made breakthroughs. He relaxed with his fellow apprentices, and then they lit a bonfire in the scorched courtyard and roasted mountain pheasants and sweet potatoes.

The fragrance attracted the senior who had been stationed in the attic of the library all year round and came over following the smell.

He has been stationed in the attic all year round and has been fasting for many years. He has not eaten any food for a long time. Today, he heard that his disciples have all established their foundations, and he was in a good mood. Seeing that they were barbecuing, he came over.

Gu Lan had gone to barbecue with friends many times before. They had grilled several plates of pheasants, hares, etc., and also grilled sweet potatoes. When they had almost finished eating, Xu Fengxi and Xue Hao took out their master's wine and poured some for Meng Xin to drink.

Seeing them making a fuss, Gu Lan approached the senior.

There were so many things she wanted to ask, such as why she could suddenly see spiritual energy, when before she could only see the light emitted by spiritual veins. Also, why she could fuse the five-color spiritual energy in her body, and why she could understand the inner heart of spiritual beasts.

All these things troubled Gu Lan.

But when she really got in front of the senior, Gu Lan didn't know where to start. After hesitating for a long time, the senior finally saw that she seemed to be worried, so he stroked his non-existent beard and started the conversation: "Have you finished reading the book I gave you last time?"

"I've finished reading it." Gu Lan answered honestly, "I also gave them a few books that are more suitable for my junior brothers. However, we have more sword cultivators in Qianji Sect, so it would be better if there were more sword manuals. I see that the sword manuals in the library are all entry-level. If you want to improve, you must have higher-level sword manuals."

In fact, Gu Lan found it very strange. Although Qianjimen had a library, the books in the library were all ordinary books that could be bought on the market, such as sword manuals.

As a sword cultivator, all she saw were entry-level sword manuals, sword theories, and other theoretical books full of nonsense. Fortunately, they were all sword cultivators in the foundation-building stage. If their cultivation was further improved, these introductory books would be completely insufficient.

There is a reason why Qianji Sect declined. It seems that the predecessors of Qianji Sect never thought of leaving anything for their disciples.

She had heard that the major sects had several buildings just for book collection, and they were divided into different categories, such as the Sword Cultivator's Library, the Weapon Cultivator's Library, and the Alchemy Cultivator's Library. Some cultivators with higher cultivation levels even had special high-level rubbings of ancient books.

What about them? They have nothing.

After Gu Lan finished speaking, she looked at the senior. The senior had given her many books. Could it be that those books were hidden by the senior?

"What about you? You are also a sword cultivator, so don't you practice swordsmanship? If you only practice drawing talismans to become a talisman cultivator, you won't be able to seek enlightenment and become an immortal in the future."

"It is difficult to become an immortal, but it is not impossible." Gu Lan waved his hand and corrected, "I heard that if Fu Xiu also gets the blessing of the Heavenly Dao, he can also become an immortal."

"Then you know how difficult it is to get the blessing of heaven. Not only does it require good fortune, but it also requires a response from the talisman. You should consider becoming a swordsman. After all, these brats may still count on you for protection in the future."

"They will definitely be very powerful in the future and won't need to rely on me for protection." Gu Lan said firmly.

The senior didn't argue with her and took out a simple silver ring.

"I heard that your mustard bag is leaking like a sieve. I'll give this to you." The senior stroked the quaint silver ring which was engraved with delicate patterns. The surface of the silver ring did not become dirty due to the passage of time.

Seeing that Gu Lan was looking at it seriously, the senior said, "I think it has a connection with you and does not reject you. This is a space ring. The inside is the same as a mustard bag, but it is better than a mustard bag. You can build a cabinet in it as you like, and you can put things in it by category in the future. It is just right for you."

The senior blinked and motioned for her to put it on quickly.

Gu Lan put the ring on her index finger. The originally large ring actually became smaller and fit perfectly on her finger.

It can actually change its size according to the size of its owner's finger! It's amazing!

The senior looked at the well-behaved ring and touched his nose. It seemed that the ring was just like its owner, forgetting friends when it saw a beautiful woman. In his hand, it didn't move at all and couldn't be put on. But in Gu Lan's hand, it was so obedient.

"Senior?" Gu Lan turned his head and found that the corner of the senior's eye was twitching. He asked with concern, "What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing, just thinking of some annoying guy."

"Oh. I guess you had a lot of friends in the past."

"Yes, I have many friends." The senior looked at the vast starry sky and said melancholy, "With them, the world is very lively. Now this world is very lonely."

Perhaps because he was talking about something sad, the senior didn't intend to say much. He looked at the people in the distance lovingly, then focused his gaze on Gu Lan, and patted Gu Lan on the shoulder, "Please take care of them more. Qianjimen is the mission of you young people. We are all old, and tomorrow's flowers are gone, so it's time to stop."

After the bonfire party was over, Yun Tiannan hugged his little apprentice who had fallen asleep long ago and chanted a mantra. Suddenly, the wind blew up from the ground, blowing up the ruins.

Gu Lan looked up and found that the ruins became intact again in the wind, and then they were reassembled into houses according to their previous appearance.

It's like a magical world.

Yun Tiannan saw his disciples staring at him with eyes wide open, full of disbelief, and felt proud. However, in the blink of an eye, he read doubt in their eyes.

What's going on? Our sleepy-eyed master actually has such a skill?

Hey, hey, your master is at least the head of a sect!

Yun Tiannan wanted to beat up these disciples, but he also looked at the house that had become intact again with everyone else, "There is a talisman on this house. If it is damaged, as long as the talisman is not destroyed, the house can be restored naturally by reciting the formula. Now your cultivation is low and you can't see the talisman. If your cultivation is higher, you will be able to see it. Then I will teach you the formula one by one."

After the house was repaired, everyone went their separate ways. Gu Lan returned to the house and opened the space ring.

This space is a land of flowers. On the undulating hillsides, daisies, golden thread flowers, magnolias, and other flowers of various colors whose names are unknown are blooming, blooming beautifully in a season that does not belong to them.

Gu Lan found a small wooden house on a slightly higher hillside.

She walked in and saw a pure white room with only a box in it.

When I opened the box, there were only two books inside.

One is "Swordsmanship" and the other is "Talisman". Gu Lan flipped through the two books and was delighted to find that the contents were finally not at the entry level.

However, it was too strange that there were only two books in such a big box. Gu Lan tilted her head and couldn't figure it out, but she just let him do it for the time being. At the moment, the most important thing was to understand these two books thoroughly, as she was far behind in swordsmanship.

Gu Lan thought of Ling Yebai and Ling Yao's sword. Although it was caught by Xuan Feng, it was extremely powerful. If they met in the sect competition, she would definitely be defeated.
