Chapter 495: The beginning of retreat
At the end of November in the 57th year of Changming calendar, the end of autumn and the winter solstice.
Jiang Lan was writing something in the study...
Yan Qiu came behind him, "Master, everything is ready."
"Okay, wait a moment..."
Yan Qiu waited quietly.
After a while, Jiang Lan put down the pen in his hand, rolled up the scroll, and said to Yan Qiu:
"The rest of the matter is up to you, especially to watch Ling'er, let her rest assured to take care of the baby, don't hurt or get tired."
"Yes, I will be careful."
"By the way, this thing is given to Deputy Sect Master Bai." Jiang Lan took out a jade slip and gave it to Yan Qiu.
It recorded some of his prospects and ideas for the future of the sect.
It can be regarded as a kind of explanation of the afterlife.
Although the confidence of this retreat breakthrough is very high, he will prepare for the worst if it is not certain to succeed.
Jiang Lan walked out of the study and was greeted by Bai Ling with a slightly bulging belly.
"Husband..."
When she saw Jiang Lan, a look of joy appeared on her face, but then she saw him fully armed...
The worry in her eyes was fleeting, but Jiang Lan still caught it.
After Bai Ling became pregnant, her mood became very volatile, especially when it came to Jiang Lan.
Jiang Lan stayed with her for a while longer and took good care of her.
Originally, he wanted to stay with her until the child was born, but as time went on, he didn't want to face the breakthrough anymore.
He was afraid, afraid of failure, afraid of Bai Ling and the child in her belly, what would happen if he lost him?
He immediately realized that this kind of mood would corrode his heart. If time continued to drag on, he might really lose his determination to break through.
In that case, even if he forced a breakthrough later, there was a high probability that he would fail.
After he confessed this to Bai Ling...
She said: "I like the fearless and cautious Jiang Junior Brother, and the Jiang Sect Master who used his body as a boat to protect all the creatures in the world..."
"So... don't think too much."
"My child and I will wait for you to come out of retreat, and then tell him (her) that his (her) father is a great hero and a powerful Jindan Zhenren!"
At this point, Jiang Lan's Dao heart, which was almost covered with dust, was "wiped" clean by Bai Ling.
With her encouragement, Jiang Lan immediately began to prepare for the matter of Jindan...
Today is his retreat day.
"Ling'er, this thing is for you."
Jiang Lan took out the scroll and handed it to Bai Ling.
"What is this?"
"A copy of the Wanling Painting Scroll. With it, you will be the first-line heir of the Wanling Painting Scroll."
"If I am unlucky..."
Before he finished speaking, he was blocked by Bai Ling. She shook her head gently, "We will wait for you to come back."
"Well..."
Jiang Lan gently hugged Bai Ling, lowered her head and captured her lips, and kissed each other.
The breeze blew their sleeves and skirts, as if it was eternal and as if it was a moment...
The lips parted...the two smiled at each other.
"I will successfully form the elixir!"
He made his promise cautiously, indicating his determination to win.
"We will wait for you!"
Bai Ling gave her blessings and trust.
Jiang Lan nodded heavily and turned to walk out.
Bai Ling stroked her belly, looked at the departing figure affectionately, and showed an expectant smile on her face.
She firmly believed that Jiang Lan was not a person who broke his promise!
It was not until Jiang Lan's figure disappeared that she retracted her gaze. With the help of Yan Qiu, she returned to the room to rest...
She slowly spread out the copy of the Wanling scroll in her hand and gently rubbed it, as if she could feel his intentions.
She couldn't help but recall that Xia Wu. In her dream, she also saw the handsome fiery red divine bird.
When she woke up, the last bird chapter of the "Wanling Secret Book" appeared in her mind.
So far, Bai Ling has obtained the complete four chapters of the "Wanling Secret Book" inherited by the Jiang family.
She has also become the second person to obtain the complete inheritance of the "Wanling Secret Book" after Jiang Lan.
This is also the reason why Jiang Lan gave her the "Wanling Scroll Copy".
She is the only one in the entire sect who is qualified and capable of refining the "Wanling Scroll Copy"!
After it is refined, even if Jiang Lan, the creator, encounters something unexpected, the Wanling Scroll he constructed will not disappear.
Bai Ling will take over as the master of the Wanling Scroll, and the Wanling Realm and Xiaoyao Town in it will be inherited by her.
This is Jiang Lan's worst plan, and it is also a guarantee for his wife and daughter...
As Bai Ling's fingers brushed across the scroll, the words on it shone, and finally the entire scroll turned into a ray of spiritual light and flew into her body.
Bai Ling closed her eyes involuntarily, and a scroll of unknown past appeared in front of her eyes. It was a reincarnation dream of ninety-nine lives...
Of course, when she woke up, the "Wanling Secret Book" she got changed.
The fifth chapter of the non-existent Jiang family inheritance, "The Saint Chapter", appeared in her mind.
So far, the true inheritance of the Wanling Realm was obtained by her.
It includes the condensation of the "Wanling Scroll" and the application of the way of contract...
...
Jiang Lan walked all the way to Fuxue Palace, where he was in seclusion.
Not only is it located on the top of the mountain, it can effectively prevent the vision when he breaks through from affecting others, not to mention that there is also Senior Fuxue sitting in the formation to watch over it.
It was expected that no one would be able to disturb his breakthrough through Senior Fuxue.
"Master, you are here!"
Mei Yin came out in a tight outfit to greet him. She had successfully switched to a new cultivation method.
Even like Jiang Lan, she condensed a ‘blood spirit root’ in her heart.
However, compared to Jiang Lan’s, her blood spirit root is not of high quality, only of medium quality.
However, if she cultivates her body at the same time, she has more advantages than others.
Senior Fu Xue even modified the exercises for her personally, so that she can cultivate her body at the same time.
Although it is not as good as those exercises that focus on cultivating the body, it is much stronger than the body that is only nourished by spiritual energy.
If Jiang Lan was not busy with the formation of the pill, he would also have a hand in researching the exercises to induce the blood spirit root...
Maybe he can really use this to create another path of cultivation that is different from the current attribute spirit root?
"Practice well and listen to Senior Fuxue. You have the best talent. Help your brothers and sisters in the future..."
Mei Yin frowned and said with an unhappy face: "Why do I feel that Master is arranging my funeral?"
"Senior Fuxue said that with your talent, it is absolutely no problem to break through to the Jindan stage!"
"Of course, I just told you in advance. After all, I don't know how long it will take..."
Jiang Lan rubbed her head with a smile.
Generally speaking, the Jindan breakthrough takes about 1 month to 3 months.
But Jiang Lan condensed the Nine-Turn Golden Pill after all, and there was no example for him to refer to.
Under the guidance of Mei Yin, he came to the retreat.
Stepping into it...
Here are high-level elixirs for healing, spiritual objects for breaking through the Jindan stage, and various secret manuals of exercises...
Jiang Lan sat cross-legged on the futon in the middle and watched the door slowly close.
Smiled and nodded at the worried Mei Yin.
Until the last crack was closed...
What he didn't know was that after the door closed, most people from Xiaoyao Xianzong came one after another.
There was his father-in-law Bai Jixin...
There were Senior Brother Xu and Senior Sister Lin.
There were close friends Wei Zhao, Li Xinyi, Han Gongxian and others.
There were several of his own disciples, Fan Zhuqing, Yu Ding, and Shen Changxin.
There was Gu Yifeng's family, who were relatively familiar with him.
And his relatives, He Xiaomi, who came as a sister.
They all stopped in front of the door and gave their blessings.
After coming to this world for 60 years, Jiang Lan had unknowingly become everyone's support and hub, affecting their hearts...
And Jiang Lan in the retreat room did not start to break through immediately, but closed his eyes and once again activated [Comprehensive]...
