Former Enemy [Rebirth]

An Yuan was out of the seclusion. After half a year of seclusion in the Xuanbing Cave, he finally completed the foundation building at the last moment.

After the seal outside Xuanbing Cave was released by Du Changmao, the thick stone gate carved with exquisite auspicious clouds, panlong and gossip arrays opened slowly, and a tall figure dressed in the gray Taoist robe unique to low-level monks in Qingyang Cave slowly stepped out of the cave.

The bright moonlight poured down from the clear night sky with few clouds, and the seven-sided icicles in the Xuanbing Cave refracted the gentle light of the multicolored spiritual mist, which made this young boy with an indelible sense of innocence on his face It is set off like the second coming of the gods.

Although they only completed the foundation building, Qiu Quanshu and Du Changmao saw something more than advanced cultivation from An Yuan who walked out slowly.

Half a year, speaking of it, is only 180 days and nights, 190 hours, but in this short period of time, Anyuan has completed the leap from qi refining to foundation building, and achieved a qualitative transformation that ordinary people can't imagine. It was a miracle that I didn't even dare to think about before!

From the very beginning, Qiu Quanshu made up his mind to use the six months to test Anyuan's understanding and strength, even taking the factor of luck into account.

If there is no comprehension, it is impossible for An Yuan to apply those exercises consciously and spontaneously to practice by relying on the introductory exercises explained by Du Changmao in just a few days; It is also impossible to resist the shock and backlash in the process of advancing at a young age.

The last point is also the most important, and that is luck—to put it simply, it means good fortune and great destiny, and good luck is not afraid of fate.

This point is the most ambiguous in the realm of comprehension, and it has nothing to do with character, let alone understanding and cultivation.

Just like Su Che, the former master of Taoism, he was also one of the most spiritual and talented monks in Xuanyuan Continent.It's a pity that his luck was not good, and when he crossed the catastrophe, he happened to encounter the vision of the Nine Heavens Profound Thunder Coagulation, that is, no matter how powerful he was, he couldn't resist such a catastrophe.

Looking at it now, this Anyuan has all the above three, and his character and mind are not inferior to others. As long as Qingyang cultivates it carefully, he is not afraid that he will not be a great talent in the future.

An Qiyuan stepped out of the Xuanbing Cave, and the first thing he did when he saw Qiu Quanshu was to perform the disciple salute very respectfully, knelt down and kowtowed three times to Qiu Quanshu.

"The disciple has lived up to the expectations of the master and has completed the foundation building. It's just that the current state is unstable and needs more practice and consolidation."

An Qiyuan was somewhat willing to salute this time, after all, if the old man hadn't made Su Che take the Peiyuan Pill by mistake, Su Che's fire spirit root would not have been revealed.

Although Su Che's cultivation progress is slow now, he has made a lot of progress, and his body is much stronger than before. Just because of this, it doesn't matter if he kowtows ten times to Qiu Quanshu.

Qiu Quanshu Nianxu laughed heartily, helped An Qiyuan up with both hands and said, "This disciple has the posture of a heavenly man, his temperament is reserved and calm, he is not arrogant or rash, and to be able to achieve today's achievements, although the Xuanbing Cave is helpful, it depends on It’s still your own understanding and hard work.”

After the master and apprentice exchanged pleasantries for a while, Qiu Quanshu cast his eyes on Su Che who had been silently following behind An Qiyuan without any sense of presence.

"Oh? Su Ming, have you gotten used to retreating for half a year?" Qiu Quanshu asked kindly.

Su Che said with a smile: "My aptitude is dull, how can I compare to my cousin's stunning talent? It's just that I have been blessed by my cousin and stayed in this blessed place for half a year. It was much thicker before, and my body became stronger."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Quanshu pulled Su Che's wrist openly and aboveboard, and put his finger on his pulse.

"Well, the pulse condition is indeed much calmer and stronger than it was half a year ago, but there are still many blockages in your meridians. You must be calm and calm in your practice in the future. It can't be seen that your cousin is greedy for quick shortcuts at a fast pace."

"Only by steadily breaking through all the blockages in the meridians can the foundation of cultivation be firmly established. Do you understand this principle?"

Su Che smiled and cupped his hands in response, "Thank you for your teaching, Master, I will definitely remember it in my heart."

Qiu Quanshu brought An Qiyuan and Su Che back to the main hall of Qingxu Temple, and ordered Du Changmao to fetch new cultivation methods and medicinal treasures from Qingyang Cave and the treasure house respectively, and gave them all.

"Now that you have completed the foundation building within half a year as agreed, I shall abide by my previous promise and lend the Xuanbing Cave to you for cultivation."

An Qiyuan was overjoyed when he heard the words, and just about to get up to thank him, he was pushed back to his seat by a gesture from Qiu Quanshu.

"It's just that since you have become a disciple of Qingyang Cave, you will take on the important task of revitalizing our Great Qingyang in the future."

"It's important to improve your cultivation, but you should also participate in the general affairs in Qingyang Cave, so as not to create a gap between you and other disciples in the sect, which will also be detrimental to your development in the future."

After all, the situation in Qingyang Cave is different from the past.

When Su Che's master was in power in the past, Qingyang Cave was not only in its heyday, but the master had already cultivated many high-level monks, including the four elders who were all in the Nascent Soul realm.

As Su Che was the youngest closed-door disciple accepted by the suzerain at that time, even if Su Che was completely protected and only let him devote himself to cultivation and ignore common affairs, Qingyang Cave would still be able to run smoothly.

This is why Su Che later became the suzerain of the Daoxiu sect, but he still seldom gets involved in sect affairs, and has developed a contradictory temperament that is both high cooling and somewhat naive.

But now that Qingyang Cave is in decline, even he, who was in charge of Luding Pavilion in the past, has transformed into an elder in charge of the whole sect's affairs, which shows the difficulty of the sect.

He, Qiu Quanshu, was ordered in the face of danger, why not An Yuan now?

Since he has enjoyed the most precious cultivation resources in Qingyang Cave, the responsibilities on him must not be less than the rights he enjoys.

An Qiyuan naturally understood Qiu Quanshu's intentions in doing this, and it was a long-term task to occupy the Xuanbing Cave to secretly train Chen Cang for Su Che, and he really couldn't be too eager for quick success.

In addition to what Qiu Quanshu said about letting him participate in handling the general affairs of Qingyang Cave, in another sense, he was also taking care of the sect for Su Che, and he did it willingly.

"Disciples are sent by the master."

Seeing that An Qiyuan responded without hesitation, both Qiu Quanshu and Du Changmao showed gratified smiles.

"Okay, he's really a sensible kid."

Qiu Quanshu said earnestly: "It's just that you have completed the foundation building now, not to mention those who started with you at the same time, even the brothers who started a few years before you, none of them can compare with you in cultivation."

"But the more this is the case, the more respectful and humble you have to be. Since ancient times, those who are amazingly talented and brilliant are inevitably high-spirited, especially in the realm of self-cultivation, they often emphasize that strength is more important than anything else, but these are for those casual cultivators who have no concept of sects. .”

"Since you are a member of Qingyang Cave, you should naturally treat everyone in Qingyang Cave as a whole, a team, no matter how talented they are, let alone how deep they are."

"You must always keep in mind the principle that everyone gathers firewood and burns high, and turn these into your own help. You must not rely on your talents and set up many meaningless enemies for yourself."

"Disciple remembers Master's teachings."

After hearing the above words, even if he is as arrogant as An Qiyuan, he has to say that Qiu Quanshu does have the vision and courage to take charge of the overall situation, and he can point out the most likely problems of "Anyuan" at this stage. , and can speak so properly, he is indeed a well-deserved leader.

"In that case, starting tomorrow, you will attend the lectures with all the new disciples."

"Since you have completed the foundation building, this seat will order you to be the supervisor and trainer, responsible for instructing the disciples in the East Dojo to practice the Enlightenment Method."

"Of course, these general affairs will only take up one or two hours of your time, and the rest of the time you can go to the Xuanbing Cave to practice, and it is at your own discretion."

Qiu Quanshu's arrangement, on the one hand, can slightly suppress Anyuan's desire to strive for strength and win, and avoid blindly pursuing the improvement of cultivation base while ignoring the school's construction, and on the other hand, it can also inspire other disciples to work hard in cultivation—after all, there is such a miracle benchmark There, who can not yearn for it?

An Qiyuan naturally had no problem with such a request, so he nodded kindly in response.

At dawn the next day, the morning bell of the East Drum Tower still rings.

Flocks of cranes fly past the rising sun and the fiery morning glow, singing pleasantly in the gusts of pine wind.

Deng Chong stayed up all night last night, and watched the sun come out of the clouds this morning.

Hearing the morning bell ringing, Deng Chong instinctively got up from the bed with red eyes, but struggled for a while, but he still didn't get down to put on his shoes.

If there is no mistake in guessing, Anyuan completed the foundation building last night, and today, in order to boost the morale of the whole sect, the elder in charge will announce the great news of the day in the morning meeting.

This good news might be a good thing for most of the Taoists in Qingyang Cave, but for him, Deng Chong, it was just the opposite.

"Hmph, if I'm also allowed to enter the Xuanbing Cave and concentrate on cultivating without having to do those inexplicable chores every day, my cultivation level will definitely not be inferior to An Yuan's!"

Deng Chong was so angry that his teeth were itching, but the situation was stronger than others. Seeing that all his classmates were ready to go out, if he didn't act, he would be recorded as late for no reason, and then punished to go to the Lingcao Pavilion to catch insects weeding.

When Deng Chong hurried to the Qingxu Temple, there was already a huge crowd of inner disciples.

Although Deng Chong was born with the talent of Shuanglinggen, but his current qualifications and cultivation level are still low, so he will naturally be ranked at the bottom of the ranking.

So when An Qiyuan was led out of the main hall of Qingxu Temple by Qiu Quanshu wearing a Taoist robe, he almost failed to see An Qiyuan's face amidst the crowd.

"Hey, it's strange, isn't that the executive elder?"

"That's right, isn't the usual morning meeting of this size presided over by disciples under the elder's seat? Why did the elder appear in person today?"

"Did something bad happen?"

When all the disciples saw Qiu Quanshu appearing, they whispered in amazement, and the ground suddenly became buzzing.

"Everyone be quiet!"

Du Changmao, who was following Qiu Quanshu, took a step forward, and made everyone present quiet down with a coercive shout.

Only then did Qiu Quanshu speak: "I don't show up today for any other reason, but to introduce a new disciple to our school."

Everyone below was immediately dumbfounded when they heard this—a newcomer disciple was able to bother to introduce himself at the morning meeting of the inner sect by the dignified elder, what is the origin of this? !

"Anyuan, come forward."

Qiu Quanshu gave An Qiyuan a look, motioning him to come forward and show his face.

An Qiyuan understood Qiu Quanshu's intentions a long time ago, so he will fully cooperate.

When he walked to the edge of the high platform of the main hall, he looked down through the waist-length white marble five bats holding peach pillars. While cupping his hands to signal to the disciples of Qingyang Cave, he unabashedly let go of the coercion all over his body.

"Foundation cultivator! He turned out to be a foundation cultivator!"
