Hard to be a master

After entering the Tribulation Transcendence period, Shen Ziliu spent much less time to practice outside, especially in the past year.The tribulation crossing period is different from all previous stages, and there is no exact duration.Some monks have gone through dozens of hundreds of years, and even wandered in the period of crossing the catastrophe all their lives, such as my sage.But some monks will come soon after entering the period of crossing the catastrophe, such as Ling Xifeng.Therefore, most monks will start preparing for the calamity after entering the period of transcending the catastrophe.

From the very beginning, Shen Ziliu has shown an amazing talent for cultivating immortals, and now with the help of Ying Nan, his practice is progressing rapidly, and it will be a matter of time before he ushers in a catastrophe.The Heavenly Tribulation is extraordinary, once it falls, there are only two results, and the Heavenly Thunder differs from person to person, and the strong will be stronger, no matter how powerful a monk is, he dare not take it lightly.Although Guan Jingxuan has never paid much attention to her own practice, she dare not neglect Shen Ziliu's catastrophe.After Shen Ziliu entered the period of crossing the catastrophe, he settled all the matters of "Hometown Clear Dream", greeted You Fang, and then accompanied Shen Ziliu back to Kunlun.

In order to overcome the tribulation, monks can not only rely on their own cultivation, spiritual power, and spells, but also use various spiritual weapons to share the power of the sky thunder.It's just that ordinary spiritual weapons and magic weapons are vulnerable in front of Tianlei. The real spiritual weapons that can be used when crossing the catastrophe are firstly the natural spiritual weapons of the monks, and secondly, the spiritual weapons specially refined with special materials.Over the years, Shen Ziliu has acquired a lot of rare spiritual materials through training abroad, and Guan Jingxuan has more treasures in his hands. The two finally picked out a few usable ones and sent them to Yu Jin to ask him to help refine them.

It took a long time to refine a magic weapon of this level, and the master and apprentice lived in Qingmengyuan with peace of mind.Shen Ziliu applied for the Supreme Realm Trial in Kunlun, and he could only come out once every half a month.Guan Jingxuan was not idle when he entered the extreme state, and took back the jade pendant of dreaming from Shen Ziliu, trying to refine it again to enhance the effectiveness of the jade pendant.

After the two returned to Kunlun, Zi Lan also came back once.These years, Zi Lan's practice progress is not as good as Shen Ziliu's. Not long ago, she just evolved into a god stage, but compared to most monks, this is already an enviable speed of practice.Different from Shen Ziliu and Guan Jingxuan who are inseparable, since Zi Lan went down the mountain to practice alone ten years ago, Zi Lan has rarely spent time with them, especially in the past two or three years, the three of them have only kept in touch through the sound transmission ring.

Guan Jingxuan didn't pay much attention to this. After all, for most monks, practice is a very independent thing. Like Zi Lan, who only returns to the teacher's school once in a few years or even ten years, most of the monks after the Nascent Soul Stage normality.Like Shen Ziliu and him, going and returning together, each time the parting will not be too long, but it is a special case.

During this meeting, Guan Jingxuan vaguely felt that Zi Lan seemed to have serious concerns. Before leaving, he vaguely reminded Shen Ziliu not to trust anyone in Kunlun except Guan Jingxuan.Shen Ziliu questioned, Zi Lan only said that he was still investigating some things, so he couldn't go into details, and he would tell them when he had clues, and then left in a hurry.

Not long after Zi Lan left, Liu Siqing came to visit again.Since the master and apprentice returned to Kunlun this time, Liu Siqing has become a frequent visitor to Qingmengyuan, but now his goal is no longer Guan Jingxuan, but to exhort.Liu Siqing's obsession with Yingyan seems to be very deep, and she would ask Shen Ziliu about the status of the sword and sword spirit every time she came.Considering that without Liu Siqing's help at the beginning, he would not have been able to pass the question and answer and would not be able to inherit the enmity, Shen Ziliu also patiently asked him every time.

But this time, Liu Siqing did not leave immediately after inquiring about Yingyan's status as usual, but instead took out a refined Lingzhu and handed it to Shen Ziliu.

"This is the soul-suppressing pearl that I refined from colorful spirit stones and soul-fixing pearls. You can embed it on the scorpion, and it can strengthen the power of the sword spirit during the calamity."

Shen Ziliu raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "Thank you, Master Lingshan, for your kindness, but this item is too expensive for this junior to accept."

Seeing that Shen Ziliu refused to pick it up, Liu Siqing put the soul-repelling pearl on the table without any intention of taking it back, and said to Shen Ziliu with a serious face: "I didn't give you this thing, but I gave it to you. After all, it is only the spiritual weapon you inherited. I am afraid that you will not be able to carry it through the catastrophe. It does not matter if you fail to overcome the catastrophe, but it is of great significance to Kunlun. .”

The corner of Shen Ziliu's mouth twitched: "..."

Guan Jingxuan couldn't help but support her forehead: "..."

Is it okay to say this in front of your face? !

After pausing for a while, Liu Siqing said again: "Of course, this is just an extra layer of protection, the key is still up to you. You have waited for so many years for the opportunity to go to the heaven again, I hope you will not let it down."

In the end, at Liu Siqing's insistence, she still accepted the soul-repelling beads. Before leaving, Liu Siqing repeatedly emphasized that the beads must be embedded.

Half a year later, Yu Jin handed over the two spirit weapons that had been refined to Shen Ziliu, and it would take some time for the remaining one.

After trying many times, Guan Jingxuan also succeeded in refining the Dreaming Jade Pendant. After tying it on Shen Ziliu himself, he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Well, there is only so much I can do for you as a teacher. .”

Shen Ziliu wrapped the person in his arms smoothly, and said with gloomy eyes: "Master, if I really ascend, will you be reluctant to part with me?"

This was the first time Shen Ziliu asked such a question.Since entering the period of crossing the catastrophe, the two of them have been tacitly aware that Shen Ziliu may soon ascend to the sky after the catastrophe, but they are both making various preparations step by step, and have never talked about the future.Guan Jingxuan didn't mention it, because she felt that everything would be logical, sooner or later.Shen Ziliu didn't mention it, but he didn't dare and didn't want to.

But hearing what Guan Jingxuan said at this moment, Shen Ziliu couldn't bear it anymore.

Guan Jingxuan was already very used to Shen Ziliu's hug, so he naturally raised his arms around the other's back, and said with a smile: "It's not that I am a teacher without heart, of course I will. But for a cultivator, all Seeking the ultimate is to ascend, comparing the two, this reluctance is nothing."

"It's nothing..."

Shen Ziliu murmured and repeated, tightened his embrace, and said sullenly: "But for disciples, when they think of being separated from Master, they feel sad to the point of death, and wish they could take Master away together. Don't For a lover who is not looking forward to being inseparable and living together forever, Master is really cruel."

Guan Jingxuan withdrew slightly from Shen Ziliu's embrace, held his face and tiptoed and kissed him lightly on the tip of his nose, and said, "But my Xiaoliu is not an ordinary person. From the day I accepted you as a disciple, as a teacher, I know that sooner or later There will be this day, but I didn't expect it to be so soon. At that time, I never thought that you and I would become Taoist couples one day. Besides, the catastrophe is not something you can't experience if you don't want to experience it. Will the catastrophe come down? , when it will fall, no one can control it, this is the fate of the cultivator. The only thing we can do is to make you the best preparations before the catastrophe comes—"

After he paused for a moment, he hugged the aggrieved apprentice again, and said: "Although I have experienced the ascension of close relatives twice as a teacher, to a teacher, you are still different from them. I will be reluctant, but seeing you ascend, everything will be worth it. So for the rest of the time, Xiaoliu prepares with peace of mind, and will always be with you as a teacher until the catastrophe comes."

During the lingering night, Shen Ziliu was full of vigor, as if he wanted to use this method to make his imprint firmly on Guan Jingxuan's life.Guan Jingxuan wanted to comfort her, and she was also a little bit reluctant by the day's events, so she let him do whatever she wanted, but she regretted it when she slept until sunset and couldn't get out of bed the next day.

However, no one expected that Shen Ziliu's catastrophe would come so quickly.Only half a month later, Shen Ziliu's catastrophe arrived before Yu Jin's last spiritual weapon was refined.

It was a sunny day, the snow stopped in Kunlun, and the sky was blue.Shen Ziliu was taking a nap in his bedroom with Guan Jingxuan in his arms, when he suddenly had a jolt in his dream, before he even opened his eyes, he heard a dull thunder coming from a distance.

In the past few days, Guan Jingxuan has always been a little restless, sleeps lightly at night, wakes up often, and after a few days, his energy is not very good.Shen Ziliu actually had some hunch in his heart, but he didn't want to say it to make Guan Jingxuan worry.At this moment, when he heard the thunder, Shen Ziliu's heart sank, and as soon as he moved, the person in his arms opened his eyes instantly.

The two masters and apprentices looked at each other, Guan Jingxuan suddenly turned over and sat up, eyes narrowed and said: "Xiaoliu, is your catastrophe coming?"

Shen Ziliu also sat up, without any surprise on his face, he just took a deep look at Guan Jingxuan, then pulled him closer and kissed him hard.

After the kiss was over, Shen Zi fluently got up and got off the bed, and with a grasp of the air, he called out a sigh, half kneeling in front of the bed, and said to Guan Jingxuan: "Master, it is the most fortunate thing in this student's life to be your apprentice and your Taoist companion. This time, please take good care of me."

When the master and apprentice walked out of Qingmengyuan, the sky above Kunlun was already covered by layers of dark clouds.Lightning flashed in and out of the clouds, and the muffled sound of thunder continued to grow louder and louder.Shen Ziliu looked up, turned around and told Guan Jingxuan to be careful, then summoned Zhiqiu, and calmly headed towards the nearby unmanned mountain peaks against the wind.The sky thunder has no eyes, and its spread is very wide. However, there are many monks and buildings on Tongdao Peak.

After Shen Ziliu left for a certain distance, Guan Jingxuan also summoned the Floating Cloud Fan to follow from a distance. After Shen Ziliu selected a mountain to settle down, Guan Jingxuan also stopped at a place not too far away, looking around to find a place to stay However, except for the place where Shen Ziliu stood, there are deep streams nearby, and he was a little worried, but he saw a group of colorful auspicious clouds floating under his feet, just in time to catch him.

Guan Jingxuan was slightly surprised, and when she turned her head, she saw Xu Qingqian not far behind him.
