Mind Cultivation Record

A full half month has passed since the Lingchuanfang City Rebellion. At this time, Xiao Mian had already returned to Huoyun Ridge with Ye Qingguo. No matter how turbulent it was outside, Xiao Mian only focused on staying here near the northern part of Nanyue Prefecture. Feel free and at ease on the grasslands of Xinjiang.

With the help of Guitou that day, Xiao Mian threw the storage bag containing Guitou's soul thought to Xiao Xuanzi, and then at the critical moment, Guitou used his soul thought to temporarily control Xiao Xuanzi's actions. Sure enough, he succeeded with one blow. Taking advantage of Xiao Xuanzi's extreme panic, he killed them all without stopping, and finally escaped safely and fled north for his life.

After that, he received Ye Qingguo in the small mountain village where Ye Qingguo was placed. Xiao Mian took him back to Huoyun Ridge and walked through the red maple forest to the edge of the prairie.

Out of consideration for the secrecy of the burial place of the Fire Beast Clan, Xiao Mian did not bring Ye Qingguo into the phantom formation. Of course, there was not even bath water in the abyss inside the phantom formation. I am afraid that even if Ye Qingguo chose her, Nor would he want to stay inside.

After discussing with Guitou, Xiao Mian himself did not plan to stay there anymore. Anyway, he can do body training anywhere. He just needs to return to the abyss regularly to see the fire beasts, the underworld pool and the cold pool that are still in the process of advancement. It’s all about whether there are any accidents with the Wannian Lingcao.

In this way, Xiao Mian and Ye Qingguo built two simple wooden houses with huge red maple trees at the boundary between the red maple forest and the grassland, which were used as shelter from the wind and rain.

In fact, before returning to the grassland, Xiao Mian asked Ye Qingguo. Anyway, Wei Laohei, who coveted her now, is dead. If Ye Qingguo is willing to return to Lingchuanfang City, Xiao Mian will naturally not mind less. It's troublesome, but Ye Qingguo's girlish character has long been tired of the intrigues in the city. Now that she has seen the colorful world outside, how can she be willing to return to the prison in Lingchuan City?

In desperation, Xiao Mian had no choice but to take her along.

But soon, Xiao Mian felt lucky for this decision: Ye Qingguo was always good at doing laundry, cooking and housework, especially his cooking skills, which even made Xiao Mian taste it for the first time. Tongue, feast and enjoy.

Now that he had rested for half a month, Xiao Mian's spirit and physical strength had returned to full strength. He felt that it was time to continue practicing the "Ten Thousand Poison Curses".

"The Curse of Ten Thousand Poisons" is divided into four steps. The first step was omitted by Xiao Mian. The second step took ten months to complete. Now we have to start practicing the third step - transforming poison and refining the marrow!

"Old Ghost, I've been wondering before: Why don't you need to buy monster meridians for the second stage of refining the veins, but you need monster bones for the third stage of marrow refining?"

Before starting the formal practice, Xiao Mian asked his question.

Guitou seemed to be very impressed by Xiao Mian's "Old Ghost", and he was in a daze for a while before explaining.

"Refining the meridians is to make the meridians wider, stronger, and tougher, and it develops in a larger direction; refining the marrow is to make the bone marrow smaller, denser, and tighter, and it develops in a smaller direction. Once the bone marrow shrinks, you will naturally need Other medulla to supplement!”

Seeing Xiao Mian's humbly accepting teachings as he spoke, Guitou's addiction to being a teacher came back again, and he began to explain eloquently.

"After the second stage of training in transporting poison and tempering meridians, your erysipelas has been excluded from the meridians and is stored between the flesh and bones. Now what you have to do is to use these erysipelas to wrap your own bones and use the poison to refine the bones and marrow. , making it more condensed and tight. After it shrinks in size, there will definitely be gaps inside the bones. At this time, the marrow of the purple-eyed golden arm is refined into your body in the same way, and the marrow valve body can be washed. Until your bones can no longer accommodate any extra bone marrow, the third stage of poison-refining and marrow refining is complete!”

"I see!"

Although Xiao Mian read the entire "Ten Thousand Poison Curse", his understanding was not as profound as that of the Ten Thousand Year Old Ghost. After listening to Guitou's explanation, Xiao Mian felt calm. He calmly held his breath for a while, and then began to follow the instructions. Practice the "Ten Thousand Poison Curses".

It's just easier said than done. At first, Xiao Mian didn't even understand how to control the erysipelas floating among the flesh and bones - after all, the erysipelas was in the meridians at first, but now it is in the flesh and blood of the whole body. The scope is much larger and the difficulty is also high. Improve accordingly.

For half a month like this, Xiao Mian still had no clue, which reminded him of the difficult process of realizing the sense of energy in his body when he first started practicing.

Besides, in the month since Ye Qingguo left Fangshi, in the first half of the month, because he had just arrived in the prairie, everything was new, and Xiao Mian hadn’t started practicing yet, so he didn’t feel lonely; in the second half of the month, Xiao Mian started to spend the whole day After practicing all night, Ye Qingguo began to get tired of the endless prairie and wanted to find something to do.

But seeing Xiao Mian's frowning expression every day, Ye Qingguo didn't dare to speak easily.

On this day, Xiao Mian ended his training early, and Ye Qingguo finally couldn't help but talk to Xiao Mian about his request.

"Xiao...Brother Xiao? Don't you need to practice today?"

"Relaxation, the way of civility and martial arts, some things cannot be achieved by hard work alone. By the way, do you have anything to do with me?" In addition to eating, Ye Qingguo usually would not take the initiative to greet him, but now it was obviously not for eating. Only then did Xiao Mian ask this question. Ye Qingguo plucked up the courage and asked in a low voice: "Brother Xiao, look, I'm usually too bored. You practice for two or three days, and I don't even have anyone to talk to!"

"Oh! I was negligent!" Originally, Xiao Mian was practicing alone, so he didn't pay attention to Ye Qingguo's existence. Now that the little girl couldn't hold it in any longer, Xiao Mian asked funnyly: "What do you want? What to do?"

"I want to make an elixir!" The little girl kept saying nothing.

Xiao Mian frowned when he heard this, but he was relieved when he thought that Old Man Ye was the famous alchemist Xiao Mian in Lingchuanfang City - even Wei Laohei was ignored when he asked for alchemy! Come to think of it, Old Man Ye taught Ye Qingguo a lot on weekdays. Ye Qingguo must also be quite obsessed with alchemy, so he asked Xiao Mian for help.

"Then what do you need to prepare for alchemy?" Xiao Mian really didn't know, but Ye Qingguo thought that Xiao Mian was testing her. At that moment, his face was slightly raised, not at all like his usual shy look, but instead he was talking freely. : "Alchemy requires an alchemy room, an alchemy furnace, alchemy fire, herbal medicine and the most important alchemist. The alchemist is me. There is no need to prepare the alchemy room in any way. No one will bother you here anyway. The alchemy fire is now in my Qi training period. But I still can’t control my cultivation, so I don’t mind if I don’t want it; as for the herbs, I still have some left by my grandfather; now I just need an alchemy furnace!”

"Alchemy furnace? Let me look for it!"

After saying this, Xiao Mian took out several storage bags on his body and rummaged through them one by one. Finally, he found something that looked like an alchemy furnace in Wei Laohei's storage bag, and looked over it over and over. After looking at it, Xiao Mian threw it to Ye Qingguo.

Unexpectedly, Ye Qingguo's expression changed drastically after taking over the alchemy cauldron. He touched the alchemy cauldron with both hands, full of grief and nostalgia. He obviously knew this alchemy cauldron.
