Chapter 685: Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio - Fairy 57

It is easy to compress the power of merit, but it is not easy to do in practice. Ruyi knows that after she grows a body, the process of cultivating the power of merit and upgrading to become an immortal god is the most critical foundation-laying process in her entire cultivation life, and she cannot relax at all.

Ruyi didn't have any powerful methods of cultivation. The only thing he could do was to repeat, over and over again, constantly circulating the power of merit in his body, allowing it to gradually accelerate, compress, and condense during the repeated circulation.

There are no years in the mountains, only the changing of the four seasons. Ruyi, Yan Chixia and Zhiqiu Yiye lived in seclusion in this place, and ten years passed in the blink of an eye.

People who practice cultivation age slowly. Ten years later, time seemed to favor her appearance. Ruyi was still as young and beautiful as ever. As early as five years ago, Ruyi successfully compressed the power of merit in her body to the extreme and successfully broke through the twelfth level of immortal spirit. Then, after absorbing the remaining merit light balls in her hand, she successfully broke through the immortal spirit and became a higher level immortal god.

After spending another five years combining and consolidating the spiritual energy of heaven and earth that he absorbed with the immortal spirit and power of merit that he possessed as an immortal, Ruyi no longer had the problem of insufficient immortal power, insufficient spiritual energy lethality, or excessive consumption of merit power that could not be recovered on his own.

After the three forces were mixed, they completely became the power of immortals and gods. Although the main body was still composed of the power of merit, it had the ability to recover independently. It did not have to recover and replenish the consumed power of merit every time by absorbing the merit light balls dropped by slaying demons and eliminating monsters. However, there were also disadvantages, that is, it was impossible to use spiritual energy alone, and the recovery speed was much slower than that of spiritual energy alone.

Ten years have passed and Yan Chixia has not changed much. His cultivation has already reached the Golden Core Realm and his lifespan has increased by five hundred years. He will not age in just ten years. But apart from his appearance, the biggest change in Yan Chixia in the past ten years is his swordsmanship.

Since Yan Chixia embarked on the path of Taoism, he was first full of passion and hatred of evil, then he could distinguish right from wrong, good from evil, then he realized that many things in the world were disappointing and evasive, and then he was clear in his heart and firm in himself. Every time he broke the shackles of his heart, he was one step closer to the great Dao. Ten years ago, Yan Chixia's full-strength attack completely dissipated his cultivation and also broke the confusion in his heart. Now, ten years have passed, not only has Yan Chixia's cultivation not regressed, but he has already touched the threshold of Nascent Soul.

The person who has changed the most in the past ten years is Zhiqiu Yiye. Now over thirty, Zhiqiu Yiye not only looks a lot more mature, but his magic skills have also improved a lot. Over the past ten years, under the guidance of Yan Chixia, Zhiqiu Yiye is no longer the half-baked person that appeared in the original plot.

In order to seek an opportunity to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, Yan Chixia had the idea of ​​leaving the mountain. When he said goodbye to Ruyi and Zhiqiu Yiye, Ruyi did not try to keep him, but only persuaded Yan Chixia that the time was not right yet and he needed to wait a little longer.

Although Yan Chixia didn't know what Ruyi wanted him to wait for, out of trust in Ruyi, Yan Chixia still agreed.

At this time, the capital city was in a state of panic, all because the national teacher had been constantly deceiving the emperor for the past ten years, supporting treacherous ministers and evildoers to kill loyal officials, causing chaos in the court, making the people suffer, and greatly weakening the national strength. Even the Golden Dragon of Fortune was in danger of life and death.

The National Master's plan has finally reached the most critical moment. In order to completely absorb the golden dragon of luck and not be disturbed by anyone, the National Master decided to give this country dynasty the final blow. That is to eliminate the Ministry of War, the last of the six ministries of the country's court that has not yet been controlled.

As a result, the Minister of War Fu Tianchou was framed and imprisoned and had to be escorted to Beijing for trial. Ning Caichen had been in prison for eighteen years, but he had not given up the idea of ​​escaping from prison. Fortunately, he met a real noble man this time.

The court was in chaos. Under the control of the imperial teacher, the emperor dispatched the highly skilled Zuo Qianhu to arrest people everywhere. The prisons throughout the capital were full of people waiting to be tried and convicted.

Many loyal and righteous people could not bear to see these loyal ministers being killed by treacherous people, so they united and prepared to enter the prison to rescue them. The prison where Ning Caichen was located was broken into by these people, and Ning Caichen took the opportunity to successfully escape.

Ning Caichen, who had finally escaped from prison, no longer had the idea of ​​taking the imperial examination to become an official. Eighteen years had passed, and he just wanted to rush back to his hometown as soon as possible to see if his poor old mother was still alive.

On his way home, Ning Caichen stayed in an abandoned mountain villa. Coincidentally, Fu Qingfeng, the daughter of Minister of War Fu Tianchou, and Fu Yuechi led a group of loyal and righteous men to ambush in the abandoned mountain villa in order to rescue their father.

The two groups of people, one leaving Beijing and the other entering Beijing, met in the same villa at the same time.

Ning Caichen entered the villa unknowingly, carefully found a house that was not too shabby and walked in, but he happened to choose the house where Fu Qingfeng stayed. He saw a bathtub in the middle of the room. Although the water in it had long been cold, it was not turbid, and he instantly wanted to take a bath.

Ning Caichen had been locked up in prison for eighteen years and had never taken care of himself. The beard on his face had long grown like weeds. When he finally got the chance to take a bath, he immediately took off his clothes and got into the tub.

Ning Caichen was discovered by Fu Qingfeng's men when he just entered the villa. They hid in the dark and observed carefully. After confirming that Ning Caichen was just a passerby, they had to find a way to drive Ning Caichen away in order to prevent the news from leaking out.

They dressed up as ghosts and entered the room, trying to scare Ning Caichen who was taking a bath. However, when Ning Caichen looked up and saw Fu Qingfeng dressed as a female ghost, he was not afraid at all, but was extremely excited.

"Xiao Qian, you are Xiao Qian, you haven't been reincarnated?" Ning Caichen suddenly stood up from the water, not caring about his naked body, and hugged Fu Qingfeng. The hot hug instantly made Fu Qingfeng at a loss.

"I don't know why I felt so sad when I saw this person." Fu Qingfeng heard Ning Caichen calling him Xiaoqian. He knew that the other party might have recognized the wrong person, but he was still reluctant to break free from his arms.

The two of them hugged each other in the moonlight for a long time without separating. Finally, Fu Yuechi, who had been waiting outside and couldn't hear any sound, came in and found Ning Caichen naked. He screamed and woke them up.

Fu Yuechi didn't bother to play the ghost. He rushed forward and pulled Fu Qingfeng out of Ning Caichen's arms. Before leaving, he glared at Ning Caichen fiercely and cursed: "Pervert, pervert!"

Ning Caichen reacted immediately after seeing Fu Yuechi and hid back in the water in shame. Only after he saw Fu Yuechi and Fu Qingfeng leave did he get up from the bathtub with a red face, shaved his beard, changed his clothes, and reappeared in front of Fu Qingfeng.

Fu Qingfeng had been absent-minded since being pulled out by Fu Yuechi. Fu Yuechi said a lot to her, but she didn't listen to a word until she heard the sound of the door opening and looked up to see Ning Caichen who had just finished taking a shower.

At first sight, Fu Qingfeng was fascinated by Ning Caichen. She always felt that the person in front of her gave her a sense of déjà vu. After seeing him, her empty heart seemed to be finally filled.
