After returning to the residence, Nalan Mingmei saw that Ye Changsheng was in a bad mood, and asked, "What's wrong, shouldn't you be happy when you get the magic weapon?"
Ye Changsheng sighed and said, "It's nothing, I just feel a little tired all of a sudden."
Nalan Mingmei walked over silently, let him hold her little hand, and said softly, "Don't worry, everything will be fine."
Afterwards, the two of them sat cross-legged and began to practice.
Cultivation has no time, time flies by, and ten years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Perhaps because of the emergence of Huang Yami and the potential threat of the masked man in black, everyone needs a quiet and long-term development time. In the past ten years, the Daqin Xiuxian world has been calm, and there are occasional small frictions between the sects. It was quickly subsided under the mediation of the various sects.
Qin Yinshuang successfully survived the golden elixir calamity nine years ago and was promoted to the golden elixir stage. Her Golden Core Heavenly Tribulation is an extremely ordinary Nine-Dao Li Fire God Thunder Heavenly Tribulation, which can be easily passed. However, because of this, she did not get any magical powers in the Heavenly Tribulation.
Rao is so, Qin Yinshuang is already extremely satisfied. Because her divine soul had been damaged originally, it returned to normal after taking the Soul Gathering Pill that Qin Luoshuang got from Wuding Heavenly Palace. She knew her own situation very well, and knew that it would be extremely difficult for her to break through the late Jindan stage in her lifetime, so after entering the Jindan stage, she relaxed her practice and began to gradually get in touch with some internal management affairs of the Sword Sect.
Qin Luoshuang also understands the girl's physical condition, so she no longer asks her to practice. In addition, she gradually gave Qin Yinshuang her right to speak in the affairs of the sect. Except for major affairs, she stayed quietly in the small courtyard to practice.
Although Qin Yinshuang was promoted to Jindan stage, her cooperation with Changsheng Grocery Store did not stop. On the contrary, affected by her rising status, Changsheng Grocery Store could get all kinds of materials from Jianzong at a higher discount.
Eight years ago, that is, five years after the Linhai Sword Club, the first large-scale harvest of yellow bud rice was obtained by the various sects. This directly led to several large sects who had previously competed for quotas in the Changsheng grocery store to give up their quotas. In the end, Only the Zhao family on Lingshi Island regularly buys yellow bud rice from the Changsheng grocery store.
Of course, in addition to the sect, there are also an extremely large number of loose cultivators who also have a very high demand for yellow bud rice, so the Changsheng grocery store is only slightly deserted, but it is not worried that the yellow bud rice cannot be sold.
Some people also suspected the origin of the yellow bud rice in Changsheng Grocery Store, but considering the good relationship between Changsheng Grocery Store and Qin Luoshuang, the matter was settled.
Time continued to push back, three years ago, the eighth leaf of the nine-leaf sky herb in the gourd space grew, and then gave birth to the ninth leaf. It is estimated that in less than 20 years, the nine-leaf day vanilla will be able to bloom and bear fruit.
A year ago, the Heart Refining Grass that Ye Changsheng planted when he was building the foundation finally matured again, and he harvested three Refining Heart Grass and ten seeds. Compared with the refining grass that Ye Changsheng auctioned last time, the Heart Refining Grass harvested this time is about half the size, and the color is much more emerald green. It is estimated that this is because of the so-called Innate Wood Spirit.
Of course, the seeds were planted directly again. The three heart-refining grasses were divided by Ye Changsheng into one for Nalan Mingmei, and the other two were kept by themselves.
Nalan Mingmei didn't use the Heart Refining Grass immediately. She felt that she was not far from the late stage of Jindan, so she planned to use it after the promotion.
Ye Changsheng had used Heart Refining Grass once, but he didn't know if it would be effective if he used it again. He thought for a while, let Nalan Mingmei stay by his side and watch him, and then used his spiritual sense to touch the heart refining grass.
In a trance, Ye Changsheng realized that he was in a familiar desert. The surrounding scenery was as if he had just seen it yesterday. Sha Yang.
Looking down at his hands again, Ye Changsheng saw that his hands were dry and cracked, like dry bones.
The clothes on his body were also extremely tattered, and could only cover his chest and abdomen. As for the feet, not even a pair of shoes. It's just that a very thick layer of calluses has formed on the soles of the feet, and even if I step on the hot yellow sand, I can't feel it.
Where is this place? Why do I feel so familiar? who I am? What should I do?
Ye Changsheng lowered his head and pondered for a moment, but to no avail.
Looking up at the sky, the scorching sun rose a little higher than before. At noon, the air was filled with an overwhelming warmth, as if standing in a volcanic crater.
Under the scorching sun, everything around is bright, as if a spark can burn into a sea of fire.
Ye Changsheng subconsciously activated his spiritual power and wanted to generate a water polo, but his meridians all over his body were depleted, as if he had just taken dozens of scattered spirit pills.
A consciousness was born from the mind "I want to move forward!"
So he stepped forward and continued to move forward.
The scorching sun is always hovering in the sky, and the best time is to land on the horizon, then patrol for a while, and then start to rise again. The skinny feet stepped on the yellow sand, and the scorching sun dragged a shadow behind him that changed from short to long, and from long to short.
As time passed, the desert seemed to have no end. Ye Changsheng didn't know how far he had gone, but a voice deep inside told him to keep walking.
Suddenly one day, when looking at the red sun on the horizon, he found that the red sun seemed to be much bigger than when he first saw it. At first, when he saw the red sun on the horizon, he looked at it like this, and it was only the size of a head. At this time, the red sun was about the size of a washbasin.
Perhaps it was his own delusion.
He thought so, and continued walking.
Another day, he felt that wherever he went, it seemed to be a lot hotter than before. It's just that the feeling of hot and cold is in contrast, and such a slow detection is very likely to be an illusion.
After that, I didn't know how long I walked. When I stepped down, it suddenly became dark. Nalan looked at him with concern: "How are you?"
Ye Changsheng opened his mouth with difficulty, realizing that there was no dryness in his throat, but the dryness and heat in his consciousness never dissipated, making him unable to speak for a while.
And his divine sense is like opening hundreds of jade boxes one after another, and there is not much left that has been consumed.
Nalan Mingmei was in a hurry, so she leaned forward and said, "Why don't you speak? You have been in a coma for two hours, and you can't be woken up no matter what you call. It really scared me to death."
Ye Changsheng's somewhat chaotic consciousness gradually became clearer, and he finally recalled everything in the desert.
He said calmly, "Water, give me water."
Nalan Mingmei waved a hand, and a fist-sized water polo appeared in her palm. The next moment, she held up the water polo and placed it on Ye Changsheng's lips.
Ye Changsheng moved his head with difficulty and sucked the water ball down.
Perhaps it was a psychological effect. After the water polo was in his stomach, Ye Changsheng asked a lot of convenience for his words: "This, this Heart Refining Grass is really useful, I saw myself in a desert, and then I went on like that, I don't know where I left. How long did it take to wake up suddenly."
Saying that, he turned his attention to the place where he had just put the Heart Refining Grass, but found that the Heart Refining Grass had turned into fly ash and dissipated.
Nalan Mingmei helped Ye Changsheng to sit up and gave him a Qi-tonifying pill. When Ye Changsheng thought about it, his spiritual power revolved rapidly, and he returned to normal in an instant.
Afterwards, his consciousness moved, only to feel that his consciousness was about 30% stronger than before, and all the things within a radius of several dozen meters around him were all in one thought.
This time, the level of spiritual awareness is no less than the last time, but because before he used the Heart Refining Grass, his spiritual awareness was much stronger than the last time, so it is only a 30% increase in spiritual awareness.
After sitting cross-legged for a while, his consciousness also returned to normal.
However, in this short period of time, everything he saw in the desert began to blur in his mind.
Ye Changsheng was startled, he flicked his palm, took out a pen and paper, and began to draw what he saw all the way.
Before he could draw two more pictures, the memory of the desert was already vague and only a rough impression remained, as if he had been there in a dream.
In addition, he also felt that he seemed to have forgotten a very important thing, which was what he experienced in the desert.
However, even if he was calm, he couldn't figure out what he had forgotten.
If you can't remember it, then forget it. Ye Changsheng smiled at Nalan Mingmei, and said, "My spiritual sense has increased by about 20%. Now, my spiritual sense is stronger than that of a cultivator who is close to the Great Perfection in the later stage of Jindan."
With that said, he took out a jade box, slaughtered the gods, and with a click, the jade box was opened, revealing one of the high-level spiritual stones.
When his spiritual sense had grown earlier, Ye Changsheng opened most of his jade boxes, leaving only a few dozen deep in the storage bag for him to test the strength of his spiritual sense.
Ye Changsheng laughed, grabbed the Lingshi in his hand, and said, "It's really a pleasant surprise."
Nalan Mingmei smiled and said: "Hehe, when I get promoted to the late stage of Jindan, I will also use this Heart Refining Grass. By the way, didn't you use the Heart Refining Grass last time, why can you still use it this time? "
Ye Changsheng scratched his head and said, "I don't know either. It is said that Heart Refining Grass can only be used once."
The two of them turned their eyes and looked at another heart-refining grass on the table.
Nalan Mingmei brought the Heart Refining Grass and said, "Do you want to try again?"
When Ye Changsheng thought of the heat and dryness in the desert, he still had lingering fears in his heart. After thinking about it, he said, "Okay."
Taking the Heart Refining Grass, Ye Changsheng swept over with his divine sense, but found that there was nothing unusual about the Heart Refining Grass.
The two looked at each other in astonishment. Nalan Mingmei also took out his own heart-refining grass, carefully compared it with the one in front of him for a long time, and finally came to the conclusion that the two heart-refining grasses were exactly the same.
Since there is no problem between individuals of Heart Refining Grass, then the problem is mostly in the gourd space.
Ye Changsheng thought for a while and said, "These few plants are much thicker than the one I used before. It is estimated that this is the reason why I can use the plant for the second time. Strictly speaking, these few plants are in front of me. The Heart Refining Grass has hardly appeared in the world of immortal cultivation, so everyone only knows that the Heart Refining Grass can only be used once, but they don't know that the Heart Refining Grass that grows because of the innate wood spirit can be used again."
Nalan nodded and said: "You have some truth in what you said, but unfortunately, we can't get another heart-refining grass to test. It takes three hundred months for the heart-refining grass in the gourd space to mature, which is two Ten years is a long time."
Ye Changsheng moved in his heart and said: "The concentration of wood spirit energy is clearly different around the gourd seedlings according to the three-zhang, six-zhang and six-zhang distances. Plant them separately beyond six zhang, so that after waiting for more than twenty years, you can get different grades of refining grass. Even if this idea is not correct, you can directly use the best refining grass within 30 feet. "
Nalan Mingmei nodded vigorously and said, "This is a good way."
The two immediately started, replanting the Heart Refining Grass, and then they left the gourd space.
Nalan said brightly: "Then I won't use this heart-refining grass for now. I will wait for more than 20 years before these ten heart-refining grasses mature before using it."
Ye Changsheng smiled and said, "I also want to persuade you to do so."
After collecting the Heart Refining Grass, the two of them began to cultivate.
In ten years, the spiritual power of the little sparrow has also increased significantly. It broke through seven or eight years ago and entered the second stage. The guy's wingspan has reached seven feet, and the accumulation of spiritual power is not far from the Great Perfection of the second-order late stage.
It's just that it is still very discordant with Nalan Mingmei. Since the promotion, every time it sees Nalan Mingmei in the space, it fights with Nalan Mingmei with all its might.
In the beginning, Nalan Mingmei even played with it, but after a long time, it became very annoying. In the end, Ye Changsheng took the little sparrow and cleaned it up, and the little guy became honest.
After ten years, the five-series circles in the space finally lighted up to seven-tenths of each of the yellow circles, but there is still a long way to go before they are fully illuminated.
Ye Changsheng's nine-refinement method of concentrating his mind has been refined to the fourth level, and the fifth level has also been refined to more than half. The Spiritual Transformation God Dafa had already begun to practice that day. Judging from the practice efficiency of his fellow practitioners, it is estimated that it will take more than ten years to cultivate.
This day's Spiritual Transformation Dafa is different from the Nine Refinements Concentrating Spirit. If it is not fully refined in one day, there will be no way to assimilate the spiritual power with the imprint of the divine sense. Therefore, only after it is fully refined will the divine sense be improved.
The condensed iron shield, Xuanji fire shield, Hanxing seal lock, and Tianjing divine barrier that were obtained later have all been sacrificed, and even the sixth-order ninth-grade magic weapon that was taken from Sun Bufan has also been successfully sacrificed.
So far, Ye Changsheng's most powerful and practical magic weapon is this sea-covered inkstone.
The Heavenly Killing Lihe Clams only slaughtered heavily, and he only sacrificed to the fifth floor. Considering that it was useless to kill the clams during the Heavenly Tribulation, Ye Changsheng never studied the remaining two layers.
