0593_It's a matter of course

My brother picked up the lotus and looked at it for a while, then said, "It's interesting."

While talking, the lotus flower turned into water. My brother put the lotus water into the cup. After waiting for a while, he said again: "Can you freeze it again?"

I hooked my fingers towards the cup, and the water came out of the cup in a silky shape, forming the shape of a lotus flower, and then the silk thread broke and re-fused to form smooth petals, and finally formed a complete lotus flower, falling on the cup, The outer petals are supported by the edge of the cup.

The re-formed lotus is the same size as the one I showed my brother just now, but it is much more exquisite. This is also in line with the forming rules of this pile of ice lotus: the more spiritual power that is integrated into me, the more beautiful their shape will be. exquisite.

My brother clapped his hands twice: "Not bad, not bad, but you are so proficient, what have you been doing in Lianshan? Have you been carving flowers?"

Nonsense, if you can model more than ten thousand ice lotus flowers with slightly different but similar overall structure in your mind, you will be very proficient-I have basically practiced conditioned reflex, but it is the first time to model in reality, a little hands-on It caused excess spiritual power to infiltrate into the ice lotus, but did not completely restore the previous appearance of the ice lotus. It will be better next time.

My brother: "But it's still the same problem. It's possible to have a qualitative change in your mood and skills in the mortal world, but the environmental aura is not in place, so there's no reason for your spiritual power to increase steadily. Did you use Lingshi? That's not right, seven When I was young, I hadn't digested the words of absorbing the spirit stone, and the fluctuation of spiritual power could not be so smooth and natural."

"Lianshan," my father walked over and held the ice lotus in his hand, "there is a legend in the mortal world that there is a lotus mountain that can grow lotus flowers that are effective for the living dead. There used to be a spiritual vein on that mountain, although it has been exhausted many years ago, but Under certain conditions, it still has the ability to gather aura."

Me: "...at the moment when the ice flame stone was formed?"

My dad: "Oh? You noticed it? It's not easy."

I was honest: "No, actually, it's just that the environment changed the most at that moment. The lotus bloomed and the ice flame stone caught fire, but my upgrade was not at that moment."

My father: "It doesn't matter when you break through, your spiritual power is already enough, and you can break through smoothly when your mood is in place, and you don't need to absorb a lot of spiritual energy from the outside world temporarily."

My brother and I: "...Huh?"

My father who was standing looked down at my brother who was sitting: "He can't figure out the difference in spiritual power between the middle stage of foundation establishment and the late stage. After all, this difference varies from person to person, and there is no information for him to copy it mechanically. But you can't understand it either. clear?"

My brother: "... I haven't actually met him for a long time, and I can't judge his spiritual power accumulation through the communicator."

My father: "I'll just wait and see how long you two will be stuck in the consummation period if you are so careless."

My brother: "I... I came back this time and handed in the task to prepare to retreat and attack the Nascent Soul. Although it should still be impossible to break through, but the barrier can be much thinner, and it is only one step away. When the next opportunity is right, I will probably be there." Can really break through. Pei Miao is almost the same, and should come back to retreat in the near future."

My father: "It should have come naturally, but I have to retreat for a period of time, which is really promising."

my brother:"……"

I think my brother's inner villain has started biting his handkerchief and crying.Dad is also too much, retreat is so normal for monks, isn't it a practice to retreat immediately after breaking through?Still despise retreat?

In other words, if I can judge what I can break through, I will retreat.Making a breakthrough in Yunxia Sect will definitely not encounter accidents, and the breakthrough fails if I am too weak.Unlike outside, if something happens, the upgrade is interrupted in the middle, and it is the next best thing to not be able to upgrade temporarily. The key is that it is easy to backlash or even cause the cultivation base to regress, and life-threatening is not impossible.

"And you." After despising my brother, my father started nagging me again, ensuring that his attitude was fair, and scolded everyone, "Do you panic when you can't find information? That's right, there are not many new things in the world, there are many There are solutions to the problems in the book, but without the information of the predecessors, can you not even use your own brain?"

...Wait a minute, I know you are scolding me for asking Ms. Yunxia for help in the middle of the night. I feel ashamed when I look back on this incident. It's not chatter, I can't help but want to tell people, so how did your old man know about this?

My father: "That day, several elders including me were discussing something, and Ms. Yunxia was also present."

Me: "..." So, I was actually being watched?Black history, black history again.

My dad summed it up: "Both of you give me a reflection."

Me and my brother: "Yes..."

After training my son, my father left and took away the ice lotus flower that I had just frozen, leaving me and my brother looking at each other in dismay.

My brother: "I'm going to retreat and reflect, how do you reflect?"

Me: "I'm going to pick up a task and reflect on it while doing it."

My brother: "Although you have accumulated enough spiritual power, you have just broken through after all. I suggest that you first find a place with sufficient spiritual energy and a relatively peaceful place to do the task, and further adjust your state. After you fully adapt to your current cultivation base, then Find a more intense task to consolidate."

Me: "Got it, I'm going to find a job to do insect removal and watering on the planting peak."

My brother: "There is no need to be peaceful to that extent. Sword repair should focus on actual combat. As long as the chance of life-threatening is less than [-]%, it is considered a peaceful mission."

Me: "But I haven't even done a mission with a life-threatening probability higher than [-]%."

My brother: "...It doesn't matter, there are many kinds of sword repair, pure force, wisdom and bravery, pure intelligence, of course, you can also purely show cuteness."

I:"……"

0595_ cuteness

What's wrong with being cute?The panda is also cute, but the cuteness does not affect its beast attribute.

So I went through the tasks released by Planting Peak, and looked for the ones with high concentration of aura in the environment.

"It just so happens that I have a task related to lotus, do you want to take it?"

My hands trembled, and I turned my head to look at the elder Guanghe who spoke with grief and indignation—this must be one of the elders who had a meeting that night and witnessed the dark history of me asking Ms. Yunxia for help with trivial matters in the mortal world.Damn, she even relied on her cultivation to peek at the screen where I check the task list.

"Are you going?" Seeing that I didn't answer, Elder Guanghe asked again, blinking his eyes and acting cute.

——Enough is enough, the wrinkled old man won't be cute.

Me: "Is the ambient aura high?"

Elder Guanghe: "It's much higher than Lianshan Mountain."

Me: "..." Please don't deliberately mention black history.

Elder Guanghe: "It's also much higher than the tasks you checked."

Me: "..." I also beg you not to admit confidently that you peeked at other people's private affairs.

Elder Guanghe: "Accept?"

Me: "Is it dangerous?"

Elder Guanghe: "The lotus is not a cannibal flower, so it cannot kill you."

It sounds dangerous.

Elder Guanghe: "Are you ready?" He asked for the fourth time.

It sounds really dangerous.

I am cautious: "Can I see the mission brief?"

Elder Guanghe: "It's not straightforward. Twins are very easy to coax when you are your age. One aggressive method is enough for two people to fall into the trap together. Your father was also very impulsive when you were your age. If Sun Lijiao doesn't Stop it, he can support up to two aggressive methods."

...No, this elder, why do you want to abduct me?The more you hear it, the more wrong it becomes.

I told him the truth: "I have just broken through to the late stage of foundation establishment, and I need to stabilize my cultivation, so I want to do a more peaceful task." This reason is enough.No matter what, the elder would never make fun of his disciple's cultivation.

Elder Guanghe: "I know, so this task is suitable for you, and it is definitely good for strengthening your cultivation."

When you say this, I certainly believe that there must be benefits, but, "You just won't introduce this task to me first, will you?"

Elder Guanghe: "Pei Ji is right, you rely too much on information, and you get flustered if you don't get spoilers before you do something, and you lack the agility to respond on the spot. Of course, it's okay to be like the twins who don't prepare in advance and only rely on on-the-spot responses." Not good. The three of you are so extreme that it makes people headache, can't you neutralize it?"

0596_ know nothing

"Elder Guanghe," I interrupted his chatter in surrender, "I will accept the task."

Elder Guanghe: "Hey, right, this is decent, and I won't harm you." After speaking, he submitted a task with blank content and didn't even bother to get the title, and immediately passed the task application to let the task Enter the accessible state.

"Hurry up, hurry up, don't let anyone snatch it." He bluffed.

Don't make trouble!What idiot without inside information dares to accept such a blank document without knowing the depth?Besides, even if someone picks it up by mistake, you can cancel the mission.Anyway, there is no quest introduction at all. If you don’t contact people directly, they will know nothing about this quest and have no way to start it. Of course, you can give up at any time.

Although my heart is full of complaints, but facing Elder Guanghe, who is actually a generation older than my father if I look into the seniority, I can only accept this task as soon as possible as required.

I really feel empty.But I have been criticized by several elders in a row, so I have no choice but to bite the bullet and dare not ask more questions, and wait for orders - if he doesn't tell me the content of the task, the overall situation, and background information, he has to tell me the first step. do what?

"Very good, you belong to me now." Elder Guanghe said cheerfully, and then told me the first step, "Follow me little guy."

...I just accepted a mission, didn't I owe the bond of sale?I was even more flustered.

Feeling apprehensive, I followed Elder Guanghe to Zhizhuang Peak, in front of a pond.

Elder Guanghe: "Look, I'm not lying to you, the protagonist of this mission is the lotus flower that you are very familiar with these days."

I looked at the water lily in the pond: "..."

Snow lotus and water lily, although they both have the word 'lian' in them, they look alike, but one is terrestrial and the other is aquatic, so they are far from each other, okay?

The genus and species of the Semenidae family are different from the "order", and to be precise, they are two different things from the "subclass".Elder Guanghe, you are the elder of Zhuangfeng. Is it appropriate to say this kind of confusion from your mouth?
