Hard to be a master

Shen Ziliu did not answer Guan Jingxuan's question immediately, but asked instead: "Where is Master?"

Guan Jingxuan said with a smile: "As a teacher, of course it is still the same as before, staying in Qingmengyuan for Qingxiu."

Shen Ziliu exposed him mercilessly: "Master is clearly staying in Qingmengyuan to be lazy."

Guan Jingxuan flicked Shen Ziliu's forehead, feigned anger and said, "It's not big or small, how can you talk to Master?"

Shen Ziliu grabbed Guan Jingxuan's hand, and said: "Master Sun said that Master's cultivation has improved a lot, isn't Master planning to take advantage of the situation to go further?"

Guan Jingxuan said, "It's not that easy."

Shen Ziliu curled his lips and said in a low voice, "The disciple is very happy to do something for the master."

Guan Jingxuan was taken aback for a moment, and after realizing it, he withdrew his hand and hit Shen Ziliu on the head. The person who was beaten laughed and begged for mercy.

"Master, I was wrong! The disciple was just joking."

After being beaten by Guan Jingxuan for a while, Shen Ziliu finally became more honest, and said: "Master always said that his ability is limited, and it is difficult to make a breakthrough in cultivation. Now this restriction can be regarded as broken. Master really never thought of cultivating to perfection. Ascension to immortality?"

Guan Jingxuan shook her head: "You think about cultivating immortals too simply. Although the master's cultivation level has improved, he is still far away from consummation. As a master, he has no obsession with attaining Taoism and ascension, as long as he doesn't cause trouble. , the body’s cultivation base is enough to settle down in the cultivation world, and there is nothing wrong with stopping here. In addition, although the method of dual cultivation can improve the cultivation base, it is not without an upper limit. Just like this time, because of the talents and physical strengths of the two of us The benefits vary greatly depending on the conditions. Therefore, it is better to let nature take its course and resign oneself to fate than to work hard.”

Shen Ziliu pursed his lips and said, "Isn't that just Master wanting to be lazy?"

Not surprisingly, Shen Ziliu was taught another lesson.

After arguing with Shen Ziliu, Guan Jingxuan said seriously, "Seriously, what are your plans for the future?"

Shen Ziliu also stopped laughing, and said: "I borrowed a pot of cave from Qiyu Shangzun, and I plan to practice in seclusion for two or three years before going down the mountain to enter the world."

To be born, enter the world first.Joining the world is an indispensable part for monks who want to ascend to the Dao.When a monk enters the world, he must be able to integrate into the world of mortals as an ordinary person. He does not need to use magical treasures to make a living with his own skills like ordinary people.Only when monks have experienced the joys and sorrows of the world, and endured the temptations of mortal fetters and hustle and bustle, can they make a breakthrough.

Only after entering the world can one break through and enter the stage of transforming gods, but the stage of forming alchemy is the key stage for laying the foundation, and the early stage of Yuanying is the stage for the fastest improvement in cultivation, so it is not worth the loss to use it for entering the world.In the past, the monks were often too young to survive alone, so generally speaking, the monks would start to enter the world when the Nascent Soul Stage was close to consummation.

According to Shen Ziliu's plan, he had to advance his cultivation by leaps and bounds to near perfection in the Nascent Soul stage within two or three years.For ordinary monks, this is almost impossible, even for monks with excellent talents, it is quite difficult to achieve this goal.

Guan Jingxuan said: "Shangzun Qiyu is very generous to you... But Xiaoliu, you have just entered the Nascent Soul stage, and it may be difficult to cultivate to the late Nascent Soul stage in two or three years."

Shen Ziliu pursed his lips slightly: "The disciple hopes to become stronger soon."

Guan Jingxuan said: "Haste makes waste, rushing for success will disturb one's state of mind, which is not conducive to practice. There will be a long time to come, Xiaoliu really doesn't have to be so impatient, let's take it step by step."

Shen Ziliu looked at Guan Jingxuan, shook his head and said, "It's still a long time, but I don't want to be separated from my master for too long. I also don't want to experience the frustration of my disciple being helpless when the master is in crisis."

Hearing the firmness in Shen Ziliu's tone, Guan Jingxuan couldn't say anything to dissuade him.

Shen Ziliu softened his eyes slightly, and said, "Master, don't worry, Venerable Qiyu has adjusted the various illusions in the Dongtian Pot according to the disciple's situation, and has also given many suggestions for practice. The disciple knows the importance and will not act recklessly." of."

Guan Jingxuan looked at him helplessly, and said, "Master, I know that you have always had your own opinions, but sometimes it is easy to get into the wrong corner. Since you have already made up your mind, Master will not say much. Just remember to do what you can."

Shen Ziliu suddenly smiled and said, "Is Master loving me?"

Guan Jingxuan glanced at him and said, "You are my apprentice, if you don't love me, who do you love?"

As if he didn't expect Guan Jingxuan to admit it so frankly, Shen Ziliu was stunned for a moment before jumping on Guan Jingxuan, bent slightly and leaned against his neck for a good rub.

Guan Jingxuan patted Shen Ziliu's back dumbfounded: "Come down, I'm dead again."

Hearing the words, Shen Ziliu tightened his arms around Guan Jingxuan's waist, greedily smelling the fragrance of cold orchids on his body, and said coquettishly, "Master, I will miss you very much. I miss you all the time, every day."

The same pure hug as before suddenly resolved the embarrassment that had been lingering between the master and the apprentice after returning from Shushan.Guan Jingxuan's acceptance made Shen Ziliu's heart finally settle down, and Shen Ziliu's magnanimity and well-founded advances and retreats also gradually melted the stalk in Guan Jingxuan's heart.

Guan Jingxuan smiled and said, "Then you may not be able to leave for ten years."
