The emerald green bamboo leaves sway in the wind, a few rays of sunlight shine through the gaps between the leaves, casting mottled reflections, and the occasional sound of birds singing can be heard, making people feel more comfortable.

Taking a deep breath, Ji Ruan showed a long-lost smile.

Finally came back.

Even Ji Ruan herself did not realize that she was more relaxed in the Biluo Sect at this moment. Even when she returned to the bamboo forest, it felt like she was back home.

"I hope you didn't suffer any injustice when you went back."

Walking beside Ji Ruan, seeing the little girl looking very happy, Luo Jingcai also smiled and asked with concern.

Ji Ruan was away for the past few days, and he felt that something was missing in the bamboo forest.

Although Ji Ruan was usually quiet, her cat and dog were noisy. As a result, this time Ji Ruan took the two little guys away with her, and the bamboo forest instantly returned to its previous quietness.

At that moment, Luo Jingcai suddenly understood what it felt like to be an empty-nest elderly.

"No, everything is fine."

Ji Ruan shook his head and responded to Luo Jingcai's question with a smile.

Although he was upset for a while at the Zhao family, Pei Honghan soon got back on his feet.

Moreover, this time when he returned, he had completed all the things he needed to do. He successfully severed his relationship with the Zhao family and unexpectedly obtained a top-level ice spirit root cultivation method. Not only that, his five spirit roots also began to slowly recover...

"By the way, Mr. Luo, I have a great news that I want to share with you."

Thinking about the spiritual roots, Ji Ruan turned his head to look at Luo Jingcai, his eyes shining, and it was obvious that he had great news to share.

"Oh?! What's the good news?"

Seeing Ji Ruan like this, Luo Jingcai smiled more kindly. Although he regarded Ji Ruan as his apprentice in his heart,

But to be honest, Ji Ruan is more like his little granddaughter, and the two of them get along more like a grandfather and grandson.

Seeing that Luo Jingcai was very cooperative with him, Ji Ruan's eyes turned into crescents when he smiled. He put his hands behind his back on the ring on his right finger and turned it gently.

Then, Ji Ruan's aura began to rise step by step, from the unstable aura in the late stage of Qi training at the beginning, to the middle stage of foundation building step by step, and his whole aura also settled down, without any sign of disordered spiritual power.

When he first heard Ji Ruan say there was good news, Luo Jingcai thought it was the little girl who brought him something good.

But when he felt the little change in Ji Ruan's breath, Luo Jingcai became incredible, and he even opened his mouth so wide that an egg could fit in it without realizing it.

Ji Ruan, Ji Ruan actually... broke through to the middle stage of foundation building? !

How can this be? !

How many days has it been since she left the sect?

When he left, his spiritual roots were shattered and he looked half-dead. But after he came back, he suddenly changed drastically and even improved his cultivation level by a huge amount?

Even Pei Honghan, who had the highest talent in the Biluo Sect, took more than a year to break through the foundation-building stage.

But what about Ji Ruan?

One and a half months,

No, it’s less than a month and a half!

It directly became the middle stage of foundation building.

Not to mention Luo Jingcai, even if the leader of the top sect came and saw such a thing, he would stare out of his eyes in surprise.

"Xiao Ruan, you you you..."

Just a simple change in his cultivation level was enough to shock Luo Jingcai into stuttering.

Looking at Luo Jingcai who was so excited that he couldn't speak, Ji Ruan smiled and nodded:

"Mr. Luo, don't doubt it. What you saw is true. I have really broken through to the middle stage of foundation building."

After hearing Ji Ruan's own admission, Luo Jing took a deep breath and almost fainted. He rolled his eyes and tried to catch his breath for a long time before he finally regained his breath.

Looking directly at Ji Ruan, Luo Jing finally regained his senses.

When Ji Ruan left the sect, his spiritual roots were all shattered. In this situation, he was thankful that his cultivation did not regress. How could Ji Ruan be able to increase his cultivation and even reach the middle stage of foundation building?

Unless she...

Thinking of something, Luo Jingcai's expression suddenly became serious:

"Xiao Ruan, you are not practicing some evil skills, are you?"

It's not that Luo Jingcai doesn't believe Ji Ruan, but in the world of immortal cultivation, in addition to regular cultivation, there is another way to improve cultivation, which is to rob others of their cultivation and life to feed back to oneself.

In the world of immortal cultivation, this kind of cultivator is usually called an evil cultivator.

Moreover, this strange way of cultivation can ignore the spiritual roots in the body.

That's why Luo Jing couldn't help but doubt.

Of course, he didn't think Ji Ruan would take the initiative to learn bad things. He was just worried that the little girl was deceived by others and learned evil skills by mistake.

Hearing this, Ji Ruan was slightly stunned, and after reacting, he couldn't help but smile helplessly:

"Mr. Luo, how could I learn such vicious things?"

"It's my spiritual root. My spiritual root has been repaired!"

As he spoke, Ji Ruan told Luo Jingcai about his experiences in the secret realm in detail.

Ji Ruan did not mention a word about the mutated spiritual roots, the skills, and the inherited blue crystal. He only said that Xue Qing Tianzun helped him recover his spiritual roots and also allowed him to cultivate to the middle stage of foundation building in the secret realm.

"It turned out to be the secret realm of Xue Qing Tianzun! If it is him, then there is no doubt that your spiritual roots have recovered."

Hearing Ji Ruan's words, Luo Jingcai's eyes flashed with surprise, obviously he had heard of the name of Xue Qing Tianzun.

"Mr. Luo, do you know Xue Qing Tian Zun?"

Hearing this, Ji Ruan became curious and couldn't help asking.

"I only know some of his deeds from some history books,"

"He is a rare Ice Spiritual Root cultivator. He must have been extraordinary since birth. As a talisman cultivator, he prefers to delve into various techniques. Even many of the Ice Spiritual Root techniques left behind were created by him."

"It's just a pity..."

Thinking of something, Luo Jingcai shook his head and sighed.

"What's a pity?"

Facing Ji Ruan's puzzled gaze, Luo Jingcai slowly spoke:

"Unfortunately, although natural spiritual roots are rare, there are also very few techniques for mutant spiritual roots. Even the most powerful techniques for ice spiritual roots that have been passed down are only of the lower earth grade."

"It was because of the lack of skills that Xue Qing Tianzun's cultivation stagnated and made no progress. Eventually, his lifespan was exhausted and he died with regret."

Hearing this, Ji Ruan nodded in understanding. No wonder, even after Xue Qing Tianzun passed away, he was still obsessed with that technique.

If he had the technique book, he would have been able to try the final chasm...

"Since your spiritual roots have been repaired, you should take good care of them during this period of time. You don't have to rush to practice. Biting off more than you can chew will not do you any good. Do you understand?"

After sending Ji Ruan back to the gate, Luo Jing couldn't help but remind him,

After all, Ji Ruan is a real cultivation maniac.

Luo Jingcai had no doubt that if he did not remind him, Ji Ruan would be able to practice for three days and three nights in one go.
