I Live Forever With My Proficiency

Chapter 373 Returning home in glory

Looking at Xiaozhu Peak in the distance, Chen Ping felt unusually excited, perhaps because of the long absence.

There is a feeling of ‘coming home’.

He took a deep breath, turned into a stream of light, held the formation control token in his hand, and quickly landed on the platform of Xiaozhu Peak without disturbing anyone.

The heart-warming fragrance of evening primrose, the gentle sound of mountain springs, the sweet sound of birdsong, and the familiar Cave Mansion and temples are no longer familiar.

Twenty-eight years later, nothing has changed.

The whole person suddenly relaxed.

Chen Ping walked towards the inner courtyard of the palace.

‘What a rich spiritual energy. ’

Perhaps because the eight-pointed deer stayed, the spiritual plants in the yard became more lush, with all kinds of flowers, red, green, and yellow.

The 'Black Prison Fusang Tree' in front of the hall, which was planted before leaving, has now grown into a big tree three to four feet high, with dense branches even covering the roof of the hall.

No wonder!

No wonder it has such strong spiritual energy.

The Eight-Antlered Deer, who was taking a nap under the 'Black Prison Hibiscus Tree', was the first to sense something unusual. He raised his head and opened his eyes. When he saw Chen Ping, he stood up immediately.

He raised his head and shouted "Yo, yo" twice.

Then he walked over slowly.

He butted Chen Ping with antlers.

"Deer Immortal, why are you so angry again? Be careful when the master comes back and whips you."

When Xiaohong heard the commotion, she comforted the grumpy Eight-Antlered Deer and walked out with a basin of water for watering the spiritual plants.

"Bang Dang~" The water basin fell to the ground.

"Master? Master, are you back? Master is back. The servant said that the master is lucky and has a great destiny. If he cannot die, he will definitely come back safely." Xiaohong is not young anymore, and she has matured a lot. But I couldn't help but get excited at this moment.

There doesn't seem to be much progress in language either.

Chen Ping was not angry either.

She was used to the poor vocabulary of a maid like herself.

"Stop shouting, or you will die if you are yelled at." Chen Ping feigned anger.

"How can it be? The master of the house wants to be an immortal from Ascension and will never die. The servants are praying for the master of the house every day." Xiaohong smiled.

Chen Ping saw Xiao Cui and He Hua running out after hearing the sound, but Yun Haitang was not seen and asked:

"Isn't Madam at home?"

"The second lady went to the mine this morning. The second lady is worried about the head of the family. She often goes to Tianyan Sect to inquire about the head of the family." Xiao Hong said immediately.

This is in line with Yun Haitang's character.

After all, he has been away for twenty-eight years, which is the longest time Chen Ping has left in a single time.

Before this, the longest time away was just over 2 years.

Chen Ping said "hmm":

"Send a message to Yun Mansion, saying that I am back, and asking Madam to come back."

"Okay." Xiaohong hurried away.

"You guys go and do your work too." Chen Ping asked Xiao Cui and He Hua to continue doing their own things.

He walked into the inner palace.

The furnishings in the bedroom are still the same as they were before, and the bedding and pillows from before Chen Ping left are still on the bed.

The bedroom was clean, and the air was filled with the faint scent of Yun Haitang.

Finally, Chen Ping went to the back mountain for a walk.

It can be seen that some spiritual plants of the tree family are also cultivated in the forest in the back mountain. Most of them Chen Ping cannot name, but he can sense that most of them are spiritual plants of the Spirit Gathering type.

Before leaving, he asked Yunfeng to buy some rare Spirit Gathering trees and cultivate them, and now it seems to have achieved certain results.

It can be seen that Yunfeng has put a lot of thought into it over the years.

Cultivation of rare Spirit Gathering spiritual plants is not easy.

But Xiaozhu Peak is special.

Not only the water quality is good enough, but also the Eight-Antlered Deer whose skill has been raised to the maximum level by Chen Ping.

This is the basis for ecological improvement.

Returning to the inner palace, Chen Ping arranged the Dragon Hidden Spirit Gathering array.

Taking out the 'Spirit Seeking Realm' for testing, the aura here has reached level 6 or above.

For the early and middle stages of Gold Core, level 4 spiritual power meets the needs, level 5 means high treatment, and level 6 has completely exceeded the standard.

‘I don’t know if the Sect Leader’s Mansion has changed over the years. If it hasn’t changed, I’m afraid it can no longer be compared with this place. ’

Chen Ping smiled.

Thinking that Yun Haitang would not be able to come back from the mine so quickly, he might as well go to the main peak first to say hello to Wei Xun.

This is a given.

It is now Gold Core, which is great news for Lingxiao Sect. This matter will spread sooner or later, so why not take the initiative to share it with everyone first.

"Yeah."

In the head's house, Wei Xun excitedly took a selfie of his thigh:

“I have known for a long time that Fellow Daoist Chen is a person of great luck. I expected that Fellow Daoist Chen would have a smooth Core Formation. I never thought that Fellow Daoist Chen would already be on the second level of Gold Core.”

When Chen Ping arrived, Li Feiyu happened to be talking to Wei Xun, so they sat down and chatted together.

"It's been almost thirty years, hasn't it?" Chen Ping smiled.

"It's pretty fast. Among the Lingxiao Sect, there are dozens of Foundation Building monks. Who can successfully Core Formation and enter the second floor of Gold Core in just thirty years?" Wei Xun said cheerfully.

"Look, Li has been a Fellow Daoist for many years, and he still has a Foundation Building." Wei Xun turned to look at Li Feiyu and teased.

Li Feiyu:? ? ?

"What are you saying about me? The Lingxiao Sect is much worse than me." Li Feiyu, who was shot inexplicably, blushed.

Chen Ping only realized belatedly that Li Feiyu and Wei Xun had a certain family relationship.

It is precisely because of this that Li Feiyu's cultivation is not very outstanding, but he is always undertaking some important tasks.

It was the same when I was looking for the Formation Eye, and it was the same when I went to Tianyan City to purchase the Awakening Divine Pill.

However, Li Feiyu kept a low profile and never mentioned his relationship with the leader to the outside world. Even the monks of Lingxiao Sect knew very little about it.

Hearing Li Feiyu say this, Wei Xunxun said:

"Can you be a bit promising? Compare yourself with people who are worse than you every day, so you can learn from Chen Fellow Daoist."

Li Feiyu shrank, thinking that he should have left immediately when Chen Ping came.

It should not be in the house, but at the bottom of the house.

Immediately, he rolled his eyes and didn't know what he thought of. He sat up straight and said:

"How many years did it take Master Wei to get Core Formation and break through to the second level of Gold Core? Ah, don't misunderstand me. This disciple wants to be prepared if he is lucky enough to get Core Formation in the future."

Wei Xun's pupils shrank.

Then he shouted "Go away" and swept Li Feiyu out... You brat, you want to embarrass me.

Chen Ping glanced at Li Feiyu who got up and walked out.

Some couldn't help but laugh.

This guy and Feng Yu often stayed together, and he became a little nervous.

They dare to challenge the authority of their elders.

Wei Xun laughed dryly, dropped the topic just now, and asked tentatively:

"Now that you have entered the second level of Gold Core, Fellow Daoist Chen must have practiced the Gold Core technique, right? This technique?"

Wei Xun was actually a little worried whether Chen Ping had defected to another sect.

Otherwise, how could there be any exercises?

Gold Core skills are not common, and even auctions may not have the right skills for you.

Chen Ping is a guest minister of Lingxiao Sect. In principle, he has the right to join other sects independently. As the leader, he cannot even interfere with this.

But he hoped from the bottom of his heart that Chen Ping could stay.

Since Lingxiao Sect was rebuilt, it was not easy to produce a true Gold Core monk.

"I have indeed practiced the Gold Core technique. It was given by Fairy Xiyue of Tianyan Sect." Chen Ping did not hide it.

Wei Xun's heart tightened:

"Did Fellow Daoist Chen join Tianyan Sect?"

"That's not true." Chen Ping gave Wei Xun a general introduction to his experiences since leaving Core Formation.

When it comes to procedural content, the important hidden information is naturally not mentioned at all.

For example, things like Chi Liang, things like breaking the formation.

He didn't even mention the Canglan Grassland. He only talked about it in general that he unfortunately fell into a secret realm and only found a way out of the secret realm in the past few months.

He also didn't mention being accepted as a disciple by Xi Yue, but only said that he had some bonds because he helped Xi Yue.

"I see."

Wei Xun felt relieved after hearing what Chen Ping said, and at the same time he was quite emotional:

“I didn’t expect Fellow Daoist Chen’s Core Formation journey to be so tortuous. However, Core Formation is never easy, and not one of a hundred Foundation Buildings may succeed in Core Formation. It is a good thing that Fellow Daoist Chen can come back smoothly.”

"The originally promised Gold Core skills were for Fellow Chen Daoist to choose, but now it seems that Fellow Chen Daoist doesn't need them. Of all the spell books in the Sutra Pavilion, Fellow Chen Daoist can choose."

"Thank you, Master Wei." Chen Ping clasped his hands.

Wei Xun straightened his body, showing joy on his face.

He himself is at the fourth level of Gold Core. Although Master Sima is a fake elixir, he is still at the first level of Gold Core. Now I’m adding a second layer of Chen Ping’s Gold Core.

The overall strength of Lingxiao Sect suddenly jumped up.

Wei Xun patted his thigh:

"The current heads of Lingxiao Sect are only me and Master Sima. Since Fellow Daoist Chen is already on the second level of Gold Core, would you be interested in the position of deputy head?"

He still has some thoughts.

There is no such thing as a ‘guest guest’ as a deputy head.

Once you become the deputy head, you will become a real member of the sect.

Chen Ping quickly refused:

"Headmaster Wei understands me. Red tape and dealing with daily affairs are not suitable for me. The current position of the head of Keqing Peak is very suitable for me."

Hearing this, although Wei Xun felt regretful, he didn't say anything more.

The two continued to talk for a while, and Wei Xun proposed to hold a celebration party. In recent years, several Qi Refining monks have been promoted to the Foundation Building, so they could celebrate together and make the Lingxiao Sect lively.

Chen Ping did not refuse this point.

Wei Xun continued to introduce the development of Lingxiao Sect in recent years. The sect has recruited many disciples, which can be regarded as replenishing some of the losses caused by the death of disciples due to the demonic cultivation of the sealed domain.

The ecology of Qingyun Domain has also been restored to a certain extent.

Some Demonic Beasts have moved into the forest and settled in this area.

Several mortal cities were built, each with Foundation Building monks taking turns to garrison them.

Decades have passed, and Qingyun Domain is slowly returning to a normal domain.

"By the way, the monk named Lu Xiangbei later came to Lingxiao Sect again, but he had already broken through to become a Gold Core monk. He no longer clamored to challenge the Green Sword monk, but wanted to ask the Green Sword monk for some advice on swordsmanship. Unfortunately, Brother Qingjian didn't meet him, he lived at the foot of the mountain for a while and then left." Speaking of the sect's situation over the years, Wei Xun said.

After so many years, Wei Xun has basically guessed that Chen Ping is the so-called Green Sword monk.

The reincarnation of the ancestor is just a rumor.

But neither of them said anything.

It was precisely for this reason that he mentioned it at this moment.

Chen Ping nodded and said nothing.

With the current Sword Intent, there is no problem in hitting several paths to the north.

Moreover, after the two fights, Lu Xiangbei's style was very upright and he had no evil intentions. No need to worry.

"Have Peak Master Feng, Peak Master Gong and the others returned?" Chen Ping asked.

One of them went out with Chen Ping to gain great insights, and the other once invited Chen Ping to a secret place.

Both of them went to the wild forest.

"Feng Yu is back, you can go and sit with him. Lord Gong, hey, Chen Fellow Daoist went out when he was on the eighth floor of the Foundation Building, and there has been no news since then. I'm afraid he won't be able to come back. It's gone." Wei Xun was quite sorry, Peak Master Gong was not weak:

"Not just Peak Master Gong, there are countless monks who have been swallowed up by the wild forest over the years. Therefore, it is a great blessing that Fellow Daoist Chen can come back from the secret realm."

Chen Ping sighed softly.

There has been no news for so many years. Perhaps as Wei Xun said, he probably died in the wild forest.

Chen Ping felt lucky that he could come back smoothly, but also felt sorry for Master Gong's situation.

I still remember the scene when Master Gong left.

However, as Master Gong said at the beginning, these Foundation Building monks with no big background have no choice but to work hard to break through.

For Brother Gong, there may be nothing to regret.

That's what it is like to cultivate immortality.

No one can predict the future.

"..."

When Chen Ping came out of the master's house, he found that Li Feiyu was still waiting outside the master's house, seemingly looking for something to do with him.

"What's wrong with Fellow Daoist Li?" Chen Ping asked.

"It's nothing." Li Feiyu completely forgot about the embarrassing incident just now, and said seriously: "I wanted to go and sit with the Peak Master. Since Fellow Daoist Chen is here, why don't we go and sit together?"

Chen Ping thought about it and felt that it was really necessary to visit Feng Yu.

I didn’t know what happened to him when we went out together for a great realization.

"Let's go, together."

The two were chatting and walking, and Li Feiyu asked Chen Ping for advice on Core Formation. He has successfully passed the ninth floor of the Foundation Building, and maybe he will have a big enlightenment soon.

Soon we arrived at Invincible Peak in Fengyu.

"Master Chen? When did Master Chen come back? Come in and sit down." When Feng Yu saw that the visitor was Chen Ping, whom he had not seen for nearly thirty years, Feng Yu hurriedly greeted him.

As a result, before Chen Ping could greet him, Li Feiyu rushed to answer:

"Senior Brother Feng, look at you, you have no etiquette at all. What do you call Master Chen? You call me Senior Chen."

Feng Yu:? ? ?

Chen Ping:……

Chen Ping finally understood.

No wonder this guy was waiting for him to come with him outside the sect leader's house.

Still looking serious.

It turned out that after being trained by Wei Xun in the headmaster's mansion, he felt unbalanced and felt that he should not be the only one to suffer, so he came to Feng Yu to find balance.

Very dark.

These two people are really...

...a good couple.

"It turns out that Master Chen has Core Formation? What a joy." Feng Yu rarely ignored Li Feiyu's deliberate digging.

He quickly took Chen Ping to sit down in the living room and asked his servants to serve tea while he kept asking questions.

Chen Ping briefly talked about it, and then brought the topic back to him:

"Where is the Peak Master? After leaving Tianyan City, how is the situation in the wild forest?"

"not so good."

Feng Yu bitterly explained the situation when he and his friends entered the wild forest to look for opportunities after they parted ways in Tianyan City.

There is indeed a chance.

Based on the traces they had previously explored, they went to explore a ruins in order to gain some insights.

There I heard that someone had found natural wood liquid essence in an inaccessible dense forest.

This is good stuff.

The fluid of the five elements.

The group rushed there immediately. However, they accidentally entered a secret place on the way.

After spending several years in that secret realm in fear, half of the fellow Fellow Daoists died, and the remaining people could not stop after they walked out of the secret realm.

"The secret realm is not big, but those who fell into it were Monster Race, demon cultivators, and monks from various sects. Many people were crowded together, people were unpredictable, and disasters often happened. When I found the exit later, , not only our team, but also other monks, almost half of them were killed or injured."

"After I came out, my state of mind was affected, and I still haven't been able to realize it smoothly. It has been delayed until now. Oh, it is a big loss. I should have gone to Zhongdao with Fellow Daoist Chen to listen to the Gold Core sermon." Feng Yu sighed with emotion.

Chen Ping comforted:

"The secret realm is indeed extremely dangerous. I am also in a lot of dangers, precarious, and severely lacking in resources. However, the Peak Master may also be able to get a blessing in disguise, and the great enlightenment also pays attention to the state of mind. After overcoming this level this time, I may soon be able to I feel very enlightened.”

"I hope so." Feng Yu said.

The three of them chatted for a while before Chen Ping and Li Feiyu left.

After the two people left, Feng Yu took a deep breath.

... Chen Ping is right. If we can overcome this mental hurdle, it may be of great benefit to our great enlightenment.

Fortunately, the impact on his mood this time has almost weakened to the point of being invisible.

This means it’s possible to start over with great insights.

He was originally the senior brother of Lingxiao Sect.

The one with outstanding talent.

There's still time, there's still time.

As for the encounter in the secret realm, didn’t Chen Ping also encounter it? Isn’t it also said that resources are scarce and there are many crises? it's the same.

Thinking about it this way, I felt a lot better.

"What kind of spiritual tea are you talking about? It's quite fragrant." Feng Yu took a sip of the spiritual tea handed over by a new disciple and praised it.

After receiving the disciple's answer, he added:

"In a few days, my teacher will have to go out again to gain great insights. If Core Formation can go smoothly this time, it will be thirty or forty years behind Chen Feng's Core Formation, which is still acceptable. ... Maybe there will be opportunities to catch up in the future. .”

The disciple paused for a moment and nodded:

"able."

"What's that expression on your face? If you have anything to say, just tell me." Feng Yu glanced at his apprentice.

"Ah, nothing's wrong."

"explain."

The disciple's mouth twitched, and he hesitated and said, "Master, I just came back from the main peak. I heard that Master Chen has reached the second level of the Gold Core."

The implication is that it is not thirty or forty years.

A trace of confusion flashed in Feng Yu's eyes: "Really?"

"Really." The disciple answered with difficulty.

hiss.

What a beast.

During an outing, not only did I gain Core Formation, but I also broke through a small realm.

Fortunately, I am here to lament that the trip to the secret realm is extremely difficult and difficult, and there is a lack of resources.

hetui.

Really are.

This time the opportunity to show off was taken by Chen Ping by a large margin. Will we have to compete with Li Feiyu in the future?

The thought of him not having a chance to shine at the celebration made him feel distressed.

"Master." Seeing Feng Yu's expressive expression, the disciple decided to comfort him:

"In my disciple's opinion, there is absolutely no need for Master to compete with Master Chen. Master Chen is a man of great luck, and Master cannot compare with him. In my disciple's opinion, Master is much better than Senior Li Feiyu."

Feng Yu's heart ached even more when he heard this.

Heartbroken.

As expected, he could only be reduced to competing with Li Feiyu.

"Teacher, Master." Seeing Feng Yu's expression getting even worse, the disciple lowered his head and called softly.

"Snapped."

Feng Yu came back to his senses and slapped the tea cup on the table: "Look what kind of tea you made? It has no fragrance at all. Make it again."

"...Yes." The disciple agreed, but felt confused. He didn't say anything wrong, so why did he make the master angry again?

"Come on, come on, I'll get upset when I see you." Feng Yu chased people away.

disciple:……
