Chapter 24 Jiang Qiong, the ninth level of Jindan realm

Spring goes and autumn comes, and five years have passed in a flash.

During these five years, Gu An still maintained the plan of investing one year of his life every night. After five years, he invested more than 1,800 years of his life and reached the eighth level of the Nascent Soul Realm.

After passing the fifth level of the Nascent Soul Realm, the time required for each small level doubled. Gu An, who was evolving, could only practice hard, which took longer.

Now he has more than 10,200 years of life left. The addition of the Eight Scenery Cave Heaven has increased his annual income of life.

Five years later, there were three more menial disciples in Xuan Valley, all of whom worshipped Gu An as their master, two men and one woman, named Tang Yu, Su Han, and Zhen Qin from oldest to youngest.

Gu An no longer selected according to qualifications. He chose disciples with mediocre qualifications, so as not to cause trouble. The maximum lifespan of the three was about 200 years. On this basis, he tried his best to choose disciples who were in line with his eyes.

One day, at the entrance of the valley, Xiaochuan, Ye Lan, Wu Xin, Tang Yu, Su Han, and Zhen Qin surrounded Lu Jiujia.

"Brother, I wish you success!"

"Uncle, don't forget us when you go to the outer gate."

"Don't worry, I'm here in the Medicine Valley."

"If you fail, I'll laugh at you."

Today is the day when Lu Jiujia goes to the outer gate to take the test. Gu An cuts a Cang Teng fruit into four parts and gives them to four junior brothers and sisters, which greatly increases their cultivation. Lu Jiujia is the first to reach the ninth level of Qi training.

It is worth mentioning that since eating Cang Teng fruit, Wu Xin has completely calmed down. He practices in the house every night and no longer goes over mountains and ridges. He has also become more diligent in doing things.

The 23-year-old Lu Jiujia is full of vigor and energy. He looks at the attic where the eldest brother lives. He sees that the eldest brother is standing in front of the window looking at him, which warms his heart.

"Wait for my good news. I won't let the eldest brother down!"

Lu Jiujia smiled proudly, then turned and left.

With the Canfeng Leg that he has practiced for many years, he feels that he can make a name for himself in the outer gate.

Gu An, who was dressed in a black robe with a white background, watched Lu Jiujia leave from afar, feeling a special feeling in his heart.

He couldn't tell whether he was relieved or reluctant, or maybe both.

"I'm only 27 years old and I'm so sentimental. What will happen when I'm 200, 2,000, or even 20,000 years old?" Gu An laughed at himself.

He turned and walked to the table and sat down. He picked up the Green Hero's Travels and continued to savor it.

This was the Green Hero's Travels that was just published last year. In his opinion, this is definitely a masterpiece. The author of the book has reached perfection in writing about love, flowers, snow and moon.

An hour later.

Wu Xin came to visit. At the age of 21, he was still dressed as a monk. Gu An often teased him as the Jade-faced Tang Monk. Especially after wearing the monk's robe that Gu An specially customized for him in the outer gate, he looked more elegant.

"Big Brother, the gardens on the mountain have been watered. Do you have any instructions today?" Wu Xin walked to Gu An and said softly. He glanced at the Green Hero's Travels and his fair and handsome face flushed instantly.

Gu An said without even raising his eyes: "Nothing, you can go down and practice."

Wu Xin walked to the other side of the table, but did not leave. He looked hesitant.

Gu An glanced at him and asked: "What else?"

Wearing a black robe, he already felt the pressure of a superior. The harvest of Medicine Valley has been good in recent years, and he did not keep a small treasury, so he bought new clothes for everyone in Medicine Valley out of his own pocket. Now everyone does not look like a menial disciple.

Wu Xin gritted his teeth and said: "Brother, I'll be honest. With my qualifications, it is impossible for me to become an outer sect disciple. I really want to stay with you in Medicine Valley for the rest of my life."

Gu An put down the Green Hero's Travel Notes and looked at him carefully.

Isn't there one meaning behind his words?

He wants to make progress!

Gu An frowned, looking embarrassed.

Seeing his expression, Wu Xin suddenly became anxious and knelt down directly.

"Brother, what am I still lacking? I am more hardworking and obedient than them, and they all want to go to the outer sect, but I don't want to go." Wu Xin said excitedly, his eyes were red.

Gu An saw that he activated some kind of skills, which made his blood surge.

Good boy, learn from me, right?

Gu An said earnestly: "Wuxin, in my heart, there is no good or bad, just like the Cang Teng fruit, which my brother also divided equally between you, but the position of the eldest disciple is of great importance, and even represents the next valley master. Although I am a menial disciple, my treatment is not inferior to that of ordinary outer disciples. I have to accept the grace of the sect."

"You seem to be hiding something from me. Of course, everyone has their own difficulties that cannot be told, and I don't want to ask more. You will always be my junior brother, but the position of the eldest disciple..."

At the end, he sighed and looked helpless.

Wu Xin was stunned. He didn't expect that his actions many years ago had been noticed by the eldest brother. His first reaction was panic, followed by touching.

The last time he investigated intelligence late at night was five years ago, and the senior brother actually tolerated him for five years.

What does this mean?

The senior brother really treats him as his own!

Putting himself in the senior brother's shoes, Wu Xin felt that if he were in the position of the senior brother, he would have severely punished such a junior brother.

The more Wu Xin thought about it, the more ashamed he felt. He really couldn't act anymore.

"Senior brother, actually..." Wu Xin gritted his teeth, as if he had made a great decision.

"Actually, I come from Qianqiu Pavilion. My father is one of the seventy-two pavilion masters of Qianqiu Pavilion. I am stupid and have been bullied by my brothers and sisters for many years, so I escaped. The reason why I was groping around in those nights was because I heard about Senior Brother Li Ya I want to see if there is an opportunity and hope to prove myself to my father someday, but I have given up now. Not to mention comparing with my brothers and sisters, even compared with Lu Jiujia, I am far behind..."

Wu Xin said in one breath. After speaking, he lowered his head and did not dare to look at Gu An.

Gu An looked shocked and disbelieving.

"you……"

Hearing the senior brother's voice, Wu Xin was even more ashamed and pressed his forehead tightly to the ground.

Gu An really didn't expect Wu Xin to come from Qianqiu Pavilion.

What is this thing called?

Just stop calling it Xuan Gu, call it Qianqiu Valley!

Gu An secretly spread out his consciousness to form an invisible barrier to prevent anyone from eavesdropping.

He was silent for a while, then sighed heavily and said, "That's all, let's get up and talk first."

Upon hearing this, Wu Xin, who was uneasy, breathed a sigh of relief secretly.

Wu Xin stood up and was even more moved when he saw the complicated expression on Gu An's face.

Sure enough, senior brother treats me sincerely!

"I don't know much about Qianqiu Pavilion. I heard that Qianqiu Pavilion is a demonic sect?" Gu An took a deep breath and asked.

Wu Xin nodded and said: "It is indeed the devil's way, and it is the most evil devil's sect. There are corpse ways, Gu magic, soul-catching, poisons, etc. The ways of ordinary demons are all-encompassing. I just couldn't stay any longer, so I ran away. from……"

"Then will your father come to look for you? I have to think about other disciples." Gu An asked worriedly.

Wu Xin quickly waved his hand and said: "How could he come to me? He wishes I was dead. I am his greatest shame!"

When Gu An heard this, his expression softened slightly, and he scolded: "Wuxin, I don't allow you to belittle yourself like this. How can a person's quality be judged by his or her cultivation level?"

Wu Xin couldn't help scratching his head and said with a smile: "I know, but Qianqiu Pavilion is a demonic path. Senior brother, people in the demonic path are not normal."

Gu An nodded. He seemed to remember something and asked, "By the way, have you ever heard of the name Jiang Qiong in Qianqiu Pavilion?"

"Jiang Qiong?" Wu Xin was stunned, frowning in thought.

After a few breaths, he suddenly realized and said: "I remembered that she was the number one genius of Qianqiu Pavilion a hundred years ago and the daughter of the second pavilion master, but she has fallen for many years. I heard my father mention it when I was a child, and he still I want my eldest brother to marry Jiang Qiong.”

When Gu An heard this, he couldn't help but curiously asked: "How old is your father?"

Wu Xin replied: "Almost five hundred years old, he has more than a hundred children, so even if I lose him, he doesn't care."

Gu An was silent.

The devilish style is quite desirable.

Gu An asked a few more questions, but unfortunately Wu Xin didn't know much about Jiang Qiong.

"Since you have confessed your origins, I will train you to be a top disciple. If you can exchange your position as a top disciple of Yigu for a demon cultivator who has returned from his own way, it will be considered a merit. However, this matter cannot be disclosed for the time being. Go out and conquer everyone in the valley with your performance," Gu An said seriously.

As soon as these words came out, Wu Xin was ecstatic.

He was about to thank Gu An, but he heard Gu An continue to warn: "From now on, you can't mention Qianqiu Pavilion, even if you are alone in private. This is Taixuan Sect, and you may be caught talking to yourself. heard.”

Wu Xin nodded quickly and followed the instructions carefully.

The two senior brothers changed the subject and talked about other trivial matters.

Wu Xin felt closer to his senior brother. This feeling made him very happy. He should have confessed to his senior brother a long time ago.

…

At night, there are eight scenic spots in the cave sky.

Gu An went all the way to an open space next to the underground river and started sowing medicinal herbs.

His movements are not fast. He does not practice much on weekdays and enjoys the process of sowing. What he sows is not flowers and plants, but life.

Chinese people love farming in their bones, and this habit followed their souls to the world of immortality.

After he finished planting, he looked at his newly opened garden with satisfaction. It was very neat and had a unique sense of beauty.

"Good disciple Sun, come in."

Jiang Qiong's melodious voice came from a cave entrance, and Gu An immediately walked away.

Over the years, Jiang Qiong summoned him from time to time, asking him to help pick some medicinal materials, and even asked him to help make elixirs.

Gu An's work was not in vain. During this process, his alchemy skills improved by leaps and bounds.

Jiang Qiong's alchemy skills are far stronger than Cheng Xuandan, which can be seen from the aspect of teaching people.

All the way to the cave, it was still dark here. There was an alchemy furnace half a person high in the open space, with carbon ash piled under the furnace.

Just as Gu An was about to speak, he suddenly heard movement. He looked intently and saw a coffin deep inside began to tremble.

boom!

The coffin boards fell and hit the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Gu An saw a hand crawling out of the standing coffin. It was as skinny as a ghost's claw. He immediately threw away a lifespan test.

[Jiang Qiong (ninth level of Dan Formation Realm): 185/304/2490]

Good guy!

Close to the maximum lifespan of 2,500 years!

Why is it that the ninth level of the Dan Formation Realm only has a lifespan of 300 years?

Could it be related to her injury?

Gu An thought in confusion, and at the same time, the last trace of fear in his heart disappeared.
