Chapter 556 Yun Yun's Sorrow

The pure energy contained in the Dou Sheng's bone marrow naturally cannot be completely absorbed in a short period of time. It took a lot of time to refine it.

During this period of time, Xiao Ling has been immersed in cultivation, as if he was isolated from the world.

It was not until several days later that his eyes, which had been closed for so long, slowly opened like a curtain being slowly drawn.

The moment he opened his eyes, Xiao Ling clearly felt the sense of fullness in his body. It was a very wonderful experience, as if every meridian in the body was filled with abundant power and could burst out with amazing power at any time.

He subconsciously took a deep breath, his heart filled with shock and surprise.

Relying on his own keen perception, Xiao Ling realized that his cultivation had now broken through the seven-star level and successfully entered the eight-star level.

Not only that, he also discovered that it was not as simple as just entering the eight-star realm. If a single level could be further divided into low, medium and high levels, then Xiao Ling has now at least reached the peak of the middle stage of the eight-star Dou Zun.

The miraculous effect of a Dou Sheng bone marrow pellet is beyond belief. Ordinary seventh-grade or even eighth-grade elixirs pale in comparison and cannot be compared with it at all.

You know, elixirs that can steadily increase the strength of Dou Zun strongmen by one star are extremely rare...

"The power of this Dou Sheng bone marrow is indeed extraordinary. It is truly extraordinary that the effect can be seen so quickly."

Feeling the situation inside his body, Xiao Ling couldn't help but mutter to himself.

After saying this, he slowly withdrew his mind from sensing the situation inside his body, and then stretched lazily, moving his body which had become slightly stiff from sitting for so long, and completely dissipated the tension he had felt during his training.

"I don't know what Xian'er and the others are doing now. Let's go out and take a look." Xiao Ling let out a long sigh and muttered to himself.

Then, he slowly stood up and walked out of the secret room. He shuttled back and forth in the room several times and soon arrived in front of the door.

Xiao Ling stretched out his hand and gently pushed open the door. In an instant, sunlight poured in like a tide, and he couldn't help but squint his eyes slightly.

It was noon at this moment, the sky was as blue as a gem, clear and bright, with a few white clouds floating leisurely, as if embellishing the sky with soft marshmallows.

The bright sunshine poured down unreservedly, bringing with it warm feelings, shining on his body, as if covering Xiao Ling with a layer of golden gauze.

Xiao Ling narrowed his eyes slightly and looked towards the open space in the center of the courtyard.

On the green lawn, Qinglin, wearing a light green dress, was busy feeding her several snake pets.

The snake pets surrounded her, their lively eyes full of anticipation, and they would occasionally spit out their tongues, looking very cute. Qing Ling moved lightly among them, holding food in her hands, and patiently distributed it to each little one.

On the side, there were a few rather large snake pets. Not to be outdone, they came over and rubbed their heads against Qinglin's body affectionately. They looked so adorable as if they were asking for a caress.

Seeing this, Qinglin couldn't help but chuckle, reached out his hand, and gently stroked their heads, whispering something, as if he was having a cordial conversation with these little guys. The whole scene seemed particularly warm and harmonious.

And beside the gurgling stream next to the lawn, there is a quaint pavilion standing quietly.

At this moment, Xiao Yixian was sitting upright on a table in the pavilion, holding an ancient book in her hands, flipping through the pages with great concentration. She looked so serious that it seemed as if everything around her was not of any interest to her, and she was completely immersed in the world of the book.

Today, the little medical fairy is wearing a white long dress, the hem of which falls to the ground like flowing clouds, making her figure even more graceful.

Two slender arms were exposed in front of her body, her skin was whiter than snow, and seemed to emit a soft halo under the sunlight.

Her white hair fell like a waterfall, silky and smooth. Occasionally, when the breeze blew, her hair fluttered gently, like a beautiful painting.

Her legs were crossed gracefully, and a small section of her beautiful legs was faintly visible through the gap in her skirt. Her legs had beautiful lines and a unique charm.

Her every move reveals an ethereal and elegant temperament that is unforgettable, as if all the beauty in the world is gathered in her.

Just as Xiao Ling cast his gaze in the direction of Qing Lin and Xiao Yixian, Qing Lin and Xiao Yixian noticed his presence almost at the same time.

After all, Xiao Ling had just finished his cultivation, and the aura brought by his breakthrough in cultivation had not yet been completely restrained. Besides, he had not deliberately concealed this aura.

That unique scent was like a signal, and it was quite obvious in this quiet courtyard, so it was normal for the two sharp-minded women to notice it.

Seeing Xiao Ling's figure appear, the two girls' faces instantly broke into a smile at the same time. That smile was like flowers blooming in spring, bright and moving, adding a bit of warmth to the courtyard.

Xiao Ling noticed the gazes of the two women, and a gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He nodded slightly as a greeting to them.

Afterwards, he raised his foot and walked leisurely in the direction where the two people were. His steps were neither fast nor slow, with a unique sense of calmness and leisure.

"Congratulations, young master, on your further improvement. At this rate, it won't be long before you reach the peak of Dou Zun."

Qinglin's face was full of joy. She quickly stopped feeding her pet snake and trotted to Xiao Ling with brisk steps.

She clasped her hands tightly together, her eyes shining with excitement, and gave Xiao Ling her sincere congratulations.

"Haha, Qinglin, your cultivation has improved a lot now. At this rate, I think it won't take long for you to catch up with us." Xiao Ling said with a doting smile and reached out to gently rub Qinglin's head.

In comparison, after Xiao Ling extracted the Fighting Saint's bone marrow, he not only kept some for himself, but also shared it with Medusa, Qing Lin, Xiao Yixian, Zi Yan and others.

During the relatively free days in the inner courtyard of Canaan College, they each found time to absorb and refine the Dou Sheng's bone marrow.

Xiao Ling could now clearly feel that Qing Lin's cultivation had already reached the realm of Dou Zun four stars. Although Dou Sheng's bone marrow had a certain auxiliary effect, the speed of improvement was really quite amazing, and one could not help but sigh at Qing Lin's terrifying cultivation talent of the three-flower pupil of the green snake.

"That's all thanks to the Dou Sheng bone marrow given by the young master. Otherwise, how could Qing Lin cultivate so fast?"

Feeling the warm touch coming from above her head, Qinglin's face instantly turned red, and her shy look was so adorable.

She subconsciously rubbed her head against Xiao Ling's palm and spoke in a soft voice, her eyes full of dependence on Xiao Ling.

In response, Xiao Ling just chuckled and shook his head, knowing in his heart that Qing Lin was being modest again.

However, he did not pay too much attention to these things, and then slowly withdrew his hand, and turned his gaze to the direction of the Little Medical Fairy. He raised his eyebrows slightly, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and said:
"It seems that your improvement, Xian'er, should be quite significant. I'm afraid you have already reached the level of a seventh-level Dou Zun."

I saw the little medical fairy gently raised her slender jade hand, slowly gathered up a few strands of hair in front of her forehead, and then gently placed them behind her ears, making her look even more elegant and charming.

She also closed the ancient book in her hand, a faint smile appeared on her face, and she said softly: "It's just a breakthrough, and it was also with the help of external objects. If we really talk about strength, it's still incomparable to you now."

Even as he was speaking, Xiao Ling had already taken Qing Lin's hand and walked over to the Little Medical Fairy.

After he stood still, he raised his eyes slightly, and his gaze slowly turned around. His brows slightly frowned, and a bit of doubt appeared on his face. Then he said:
"Why don't I see that girl Zi Yan? Could it be that she slipped away to play somewhere without saying hello?"

"Sister Zi Yan left a few days ago. She said she was going to the snake people and planned to play there for a while." Xiao Ling had just finished speaking when Qing Lin, who was standing next to Xiao Ling, tilted his head slightly and said crisply.

"It's like this, Zi Yan originally wanted to take Qing Lin and me with her, but at that time we saw that you were at a critical stage of cultivation, so we didn't go with you."

The Little Medical Fairy also nodded slightly and spoke softly.

"Did she go to the snake people?" Xiao Ling raised his eyebrows slightly, a look of interest appeared on his face, and he couldn't help but chuckled, and then said, "Given the relationship between that girl and Medusa, she is indeed capable of doing such a thing."

"Young Master, is there something you want to deal with from Sister Zi Yan?" Qing Lin raised his head and looked at Xiao Ling with his clear eyes, his eyes full of curiosity and confusion.

"It's nothing too urgent, but since that girl has gone to the snake tribe, let's go back to the Xiao family." Xiao Ling narrowed his eyes slightly, with a bit of nostalgia and contemplation in his eyes, and slowly spoke,
"After all, I also came from the Xiao family. I haven't been back for so long, and I don't know what the Xiao family is like now. Now that I'm back in the Northwest Continent, I can go back and take a look. After I finish dealing with things over there, I can take Zi Yan and Medusa back to Zhongzhou together. This way, I won't delay my trip."

Qing Lin and Xiao Yixiang looked at each other regarding Xiao Ling's arrangement, and nodded almost at the moment their eyes met.

Naturally, they would not have any objection to Xiao Ling's arrangement.

"In that case, let's set off."

Xiao Ling nodded slightly. Seeing that the two women beside him had no intention of staying in Canaan College, he no longer hesitated and immediately mobilized his mental power to inform Elder Su Qian, who was still reviewing documents in the elders' office, of his impending departure.

Afterwards, Xiao Ling used the power of space without hesitation, and the silver power of space instantly enveloped the figures of Xiao Yixiang and Qing Lin.

In the blink of an eye, the next second, the figures of the three people disappeared in the courtyard like light and shadow, so fast that only a few afterimages were left.

The snake pets that were originally eating excitedly found that their master Qinglin had suddenly disappeared. They were stunned on the spot, with their mouths open and eyes wide open. They looked so stunned, as if they had not figured out what was going on. They could only stare blankly in the direction where their master disappeared, and they were unable to come back to their senses for a long time.

……

The Yunlan Mountain is like a towering peak rising from the ground and reaching into the sky, just like a sharp sword reaching straight into the sky, exuding an overwhelming and inviolable aura.

The mountain is surrounded by clouds and mist. The wisps of clouds are like gauze, floating lightly, covering the whole mountain with a dreamy veil. It feels like a fairyland has fallen into the human world.

Going up the winding mountain road, there are many sect buildings scattered in an orderly manner.

Those pavilions and palaces are all based on white jade. The wind chimes hung on the eaves and corners make clear and pleasant sounds when the breeze blows, as if telling the story of the years.

The walls of the temple are engraved with mysterious runes, emitting a soft glow that contrasts with the swirling clouds, adding a touch of mystery.

The vermilion gate is solemn and majestic, and the gems inlaid on the gate sparkle brightly in the clouds and mist.

The glazed tiles on the roof reflect colorful colors under the sunlight, which is gorgeous and eye-catching, making this mountain building look even more extraordinary.

At the back of Yunlan Mountain, there was an exquisite house standing quietly, and the practice room inside the house was decorated in a unique style. At this moment, a graceful figure was sitting cross-legged quietly on the cushion in the practice room.

She was wearing a gorgeous brocade robe, the fabric of which was embroidered with intricate and exquisite patterns with gold and silver threads. It sparkled brightly under the dim light, as if all the stars in the sky were woven into the dress.

Her black hair was as smooth as ink and tied up in a high bun. It was dotted with a few exquisite pearls and jades. It swayed slightly with her breathing, adding a bit of lively beauty.

Her face is fair and beautiful, her eyebrows are as dark as distant ink, her eyes are like stars, revealing a deep and charming charm, and her lips are red without any makeup, showing her elegance and grace.

Her graceful figure is exquisitely crafted. In this training room, she is like a beautiful flower blooming in the clouds, exuding a unique charm that is hard to ignore.

However, there was a trace of sadness on the beautiful face of this woman. Her slightly furrowed brows seemed to hide some worries, which added a bit of loneliness and sadness to her originally elegant and luxurious temperament.

"Hey, Master, why does Master insist that I marry that Gu He? I don't have a good impression of him to begin with, and I simply can't convince myself."

Yun Yun slowly finished her training and slowly opened her eyes, which were full of helplessness and entanglement. She sighed softly and murmured to herself, "Do I really have to lose my right to choose for the benefit of the sect?"

After she finished speaking, she lowered her head slightly, as if she was in deeper distress. Her originally elegant and graceful appearance now looked a little more pitiful, making people feel pity for her... (End of this chapter)
