Chapter 309 Return to the True Self

Xiaoyao Town, in an ordinary two-story wooden house.

Gu Yifeng took care of his clothes and called out a water mirror to see if there was anything wrong with his clothes.

Then he walked to the next room, lit three incense sticks, bowed respectfully to the portrait in front of him three times, and then put it on the incense burner.

There are four portraits on the wall. The two on the edge are of a middle-aged man and woman, and the middle one is of a gentle old man.

There is also a scroll on the top, a lone figure facing a large group of monks in black.

This person is his grandfather, whose name is Gu Kangkun, and he is an outer elder of Xiaoyao Sect. He made outstanding achievements in the battle five years ago and was praised by the sect leader...

"Grandpa, father, mother... I have finally broken through the third level of Qi training recently. I believe it won't be long before I can break through the fourth level of Qi training..."

"In the future, my child will definitely become a powerful immortal cultivator like the sect master, and he will live up to your expectations!"

"I hope your spirits in heaven will protect me..."

Afterwards, he sat quietly for a while before slowly getting up and opening the door.

There is only the scent of smoke lingering on the incense burner in the house...

Just as he arrived at the door, a familiar shout came from outside the house.

"Brother Feng, get up! If you don't get up, you'll be late!"

Hearing this, Gu Yifeng sped up and pushed the door open.

I saw a slim girl standing outside the door, with a delicate face, long flowing hair, and occasional hair accessories. She looked very cute.

"Morning, Xiaoqin."

Gu Yifeng said hello and walked with her to the destination.

"Brother Feng, you are so slow this time. There will be a long queue when it comes time to 'return to the truth'..."

"Haha, I'm sorry. I was late when I came back from the breakthrough yesterday. Today... I wanted to give them incense sticks, so I was a little late..."

"Ah! That's it...it's okay. If there's a long queue, just wait in a long queue. It doesn't matter if it's early or late."

When Yin Qin heard about this, some of her dissatisfaction disappeared and she turned to congratulate Gu Yifeng on his breakthrough.

"It's great that you cultivators can 'return to truth' anytime and anywhere, unlike us mortals who can only return to their true nature once a year..."

Seeing the disappointed look on the girl's side, Gu Yifeng quickly comforted her:

"What's the point? Many seniors would rather not 'return to their true nature' because they are afraid of running away and getting older..."

"Nowadays, many people are rushing to complete tasks and save contribution points, just to stay in Xiaoyao Town forever and live forever!"

"I often 'return to my true nature' because I need to practice."

However, these words did not make Yin Qin smile. These were not the issues she was struggling with.

"It would be great if I also had spiritual roots..."

As soon as these words came out, both of them fell silent.

Just because this is the difference in the world and the differences between people.

Some people are born with things that others can never ask for in their lives...

Gu Yifeng couldn't stand the current atmosphere, and searched for anecdotes in his mind, trying to make her happy.

But when he thought that the other party knew much more than he did, he couldn't help but feel a little frustrated.

Suddenly, an idea came to his mind. He thought it should be good, so he blurted out:

"The 'Water Mirror Technique' you improved this time is very useful. It is said that it has been noticed by the teachers and has been included in the magic encyclopedia. It must be a huge contribution, right?"

"Some immortal cultivators, working hard and working hard, don't make as much money as you do."

"You have such a good understanding. If you create or improve a few more spells, and when you have enough contribution points, you can exchange them for the qualification to stay in Xiaoyao Town. By then, you may live longer than me!"

"Plop...haha..."

Yin Qin looked at the person in front of her, abruptly changed the topic, and danced around trying to prove her excellence, which made her laugh out loud.

Wiping away the tears from laughter, she pulled him forward and said, "Okay, okay, I understand, the team is ahead, let's go quickly!"

The two of them obediently lined up at the end of the queue. There was a long queue in front of them, and it looked like there were no less than a hundred people!

Mostly young people, few old people.

Return to your true self!

This is a term given by the residents of Xiaoyao Town for what they do today.

In essence, it is about going from this illusory land to the real space...

Five years have passed since they were included in the Wanling Scroll by Jiang Lan and came to this world.

A lot has changed in the past five years.

First, the sect leader Jiang Lan took the lead and established an academy named "Taiping Academy"!

Teach people all kinds of knowledge, whether it is in the mortal world or the world of immortality, everything is available.

Through this academy, the residents of the town gradually began to understand their own situation.

Originally, they had little understanding of their situation. They only knew that they would not be hungry and they would not be able to practice.

Until now, everyone understands.

It turns out that they are in a magical dreamland.

Just like the person in the painting, his body will not undergo any changes.

But if things go on like this, you will become more and more inseparable from the painting, and you will completely become the person in the painting, and in reality, it will be like death...

However, due to special reasons, supplies are currently scarce and cannot support everyone's life in the real world.

Therefore, ‘Return to Truth’ was born!

Its main purpose is to allow people to go out in batches to achieve a reasonable distribution of materials and to prevent people from becoming the people in the painting.

This time limit is once a year.

If it exceeds, there will be varying degrees of assimilation, which is very troublesome.

The crowd moved forward in an orderly manner. After about half an hour, it was finally the turn of two people.

The garrison was wearing a green robe with cloud patterns and green bamboo on it. The style looked relatively simple, which made the person look heroic and upright.

This was the attire of the core disciples of Xiaoyao Xianzong. They formed Xiaoyao Pavilion. Currently, only a very small number of people who were assessed to have the qualifications for foundation building would be awarded.

In the sect, he was also a famous person.

"Next, huh? It turned out to be Yifeng and Yinqin. Yifeng, you are also an old hand. I won't say much about the precautions."

"I know, Teacher Wei..."

This person's name is Wei Zhao. He is not only a rare core disciple of the sect, but also one of the lecturers of the 'Taiping Academy'.

It is said that he has a good relationship with the sect master Jiang Lan, and he has made many outstanding achievements in the battle that year.

Everyone speculated that he might break through the foundation building in a few years. By then, the sect will have another foundation building elder!

Seeing this, Wei Zhao nodded and gave instructions to Yin Qin who was standing beside him...

"Yin Qin, you are 14 this year? If so, loosen your clothes and don't wrap them so tightly. And try not to be surprised if anything happens. Someone will help you..."

She talked a lot, much more attentive and careful than the people in front.

Such differential treatment made the people behind envious, but the little girl felt a little embarrassed by being stared at by everyone.

"Who is this little girl? A relative of Lord Wei?"

"Humph, you don't even know her? She is the 'Lost Pearl', Yin Qin!"

"What, it's her?!"
