C206 A Hidden Genius
For the past few days, he spent most of his time in the courtyard studying that giant finger bone. The rest of his time was to teach Su Yue'er some cultivation knowledge.
Once one entered the Immortality Path, one did not look at age, and only looked at cultivation. In addition, Su Yue'er was not much older than him, so there was not much of a gap between them when they addressed each other.
Emperor Chiang also discovered the relationship between the two of them. These days, many things had been told by Su Yue'er on their behalf, and Yang Xuan had gradually gotten used to it.
"It's nothing much, but, Master, the spirit stone you gave me a few days ago..."
Su Yue'er lowered her head. The tips of her toes rubbed against each other as her face turned slightly red.
"Spirit stone? What's wrong?"
"That's... that's..."
Su Yue'er gritted her teeth and muttered for a while. Finally, she stomped her foot and said, "Just yesterday, that spirit stone... It... It suddenly turned into a pile of flying ash and disappeared."
"What!"
Yang Xuan widened his eyes in shock.
The spirit stone had turned into ashes because the Spiritual Force within had dried up. However, Su Yue'er had only used the spirit stone for less than four days. Logically speaking, with her cultivation base, absorbing half of it should already be considered pretty good.
Su Yue'er looked at Yang Xuan's expression and was shocked in her heart. Her eyes sparkled with tears. "Master... I... I didn't mean to... That spirit stone, it really disappeared by itself..."
She was a little anxious. She was afraid that Yang Xuan would blame her. After all, the value of a spirit stone was incalculable.
Yang Xuan glanced at her with a strange expression. After hesitating for a moment, he asked, "What realm are you at now?"
"This... I don't know either, but it seems to be much stronger than before."
Yang Xuan pointed at the spot between her brows. After sensing it for a moment, he understood what was going on.
Su Yue'er had already entered the intermediate First Stage. Her advancement speed was so fast that no one in Qingzhou City could match her speed. She could be considered a genius.
He looked at Su Yue'er for a while and clicked his tongue in wonder. Then, he reached out his hand and touched his waist. Two spirit stone appeared in his palm.
"The reason why your spirit stone disappeared was because the Spiritual Force in it was used up. Take these two. Don't delay your cultivation."
"Ah... This... Really? "
Su Yue'er's small mouth slightly opened as she looked at the azure light in Yang Xuan's palm. Her eyes were filled with excitement.
"Take it. If it is used up, come and find me."
As Yang Xuan spoke, he suddenly remembered something. He took out a book from his storage bag and handed it over.
"Also, this is a cultivation technique I prepared for you. Take it and cultivate properly. If you have any questions, you can ask me."
"Thank you, Master!"
Su Yue'er was overjoyed. She quickly received the book, as well as the two pieces of spirit stone, and carefully placed them into her sleeve.
"In the path of cultivation, I can only guide you into the sect. You have to rely on yourself more. Your talent is not bad. If you concentrate on your cultivation, you will definitely achieve something in the future."
Judging from the current cultivation speed, if Su Yue'er was born in Wei Kingdom, she would definitely be able to enter State Hall. Now, she was merely a burden to the sparse Spirit Aura in Chiang Country.
Yang Xuan sighed in his heart. If he hadn't appeared, even if Su Yue'er's talent was extraordinary, it would still be difficult for her to have any good fortune.
However, even so, he didn't do much. After all, he was only a beginner in cultivation.
After she took the cultivation method and spirit stone, Yang Xuan walked out of the courtyard.
Now that the war had been going on for so long, Qifeng Country could launch an attack at any time. It was time for him to talk to Emperor Chiang and find out about the situation of the teleportation formation.
Su Yue'er just recovered from her surprise, and when she saw Yang Xuan leaving, she quickly followed him.
Under the lead of the guards, Yang Xuan met Emperor Chiang in a large hall as he wished. At the same time, there were a few old men who should be the ministers of Chiang Country.
Emperor Chiang sat alone on the throne. His eyes were absent-minded. Below, the officials were discussing animatedly.
Yang Xuan slowly walked into the hall and stopped at the entrance.
"Immortal Master Yang."
Emperor Chiang came back to his senses and quickly walked down from the throne to welcome him. "You came at the right time."
"King Chiang, what's wrong?" Yang Xuan frowned. It seemed like he was waiting for him.
"Immortal Master Yang."
Emperor Chiang walked up to Yang Xuan and said with a solemn expression, "Just now, a letter from the border said that the Qifeng Country seemed to have made a move."
"So fast?"
Yang Xuan was shocked. He was not ready yet. If he faced Zhao Hu directly, even if he had that strange finger bone, his chances of winning would not be high.
Emperor Chiang was also a little annoyed. He glanced at the group of officials who were still arguing and could not help but feel noisy. He immediately waved his hand and said in a clear voice, "Alright, all of you withdraw first. Zhen will naturally think of a countermeasure for this matter!"
"Yes!"
All the officials agreed and withdrew from the hall, leaving only Yang Xuan and Emperor Chiang behind.
"Immortal Master Yang, quick, please take a seat."
"No need." Yang Xuan waved his hand. "I came today to ask about the teleportation formation. As for the rest, let's talk about it later!"
"This... Immortal Master Yang, this matter is urgent!"
"I know in my heart that although I have gained something from the last time I entered the spirit vein, I do not have much confidence in fighting Zhao Hu."
Yang Xuan's words had pointed out everything, and it could be considered as giving Emperor Chiang a clear measure.
It was naturally impossible to start a war now. Only when he was ready to fight Zhao Hu would Chiang Country be able to accept the challenge. Before that, he could only avoid it.
Emperor Chiang was silent for a while, then he let out a faint sigh and said, "Forget it. Immortal Master Yang, I will try my best to delay it. It's just that Qifeng Country is restless right now, and it will be difficult for me to deal with them for too long. I hope that Immortal Master..."
"The news that I want, I wonder how is King Chiang's investigation going?"
Yang Xuan asked casually.
Emperor Chiang was shocked and answered, "Immortal Master Yang, don't worry. Everything has been investigated. If you need it, I will send someone to deliver it to you."
"Thank you, King Chiang."
...
Back in the courtyard, Su Yue'er went to cultivate by herself, while Yang Xuan had a solemn expression on his face.
The war was imminent, but it was difficult for him to make any breakthrough in his cultivation.
The accumulation of Spiritual Force was a long process. Even with the help of the spirit stone every day, and the Soul Absorption Bead helping him absorb the Spirit Aura day and night, the progress was still abnormally slow.
If this continued, it would be difficult for him to break through to the intermediate Third Stage without several years of effort.
This was under the condition that everything went smoothly. If he was stuck at a bottleneck, it wouldn't be strange for him to cultivate for a dozen years. This was the original situation of the two elders in Chiang Country.
It was almost impossible for him to break through to the Mid ___ in a short period of time. The only thing he could hope for was magic treasures.
Yang Xuan covered the small courtyard with a Divine Sense and cautiously took out the finger bone.
The strange finger bone that was as thick as a forearm was suspended in front of him. The scarlet color at the end of the tail was always wrapped by the Spiritual Force to prevent the killing intent from shaking his mind.
