Upon arriving at the back mountain, Gu Qing was very quickly stopped by two senior brothers who were guarding the cave. "This is the back mountain cave, ordinary disciples are not allowed to enter."
The two disciples guarding the cave were already a hundred years old but they were only at Qi Disciple Level 7. This kind of cultivation was considered low in their age, but in front of a new disciple like Gu Qing, they were still experts.
"Seniors, I'm here to rent a cave." Gu Qing laughed, and the two Pear Vortexes appeared, giving off a very close feeling.
"What?" You want to rent out a cave? " Their eyes revealed surprise at the same time, sizing up Gu Qing from head to toe.
One of the senior brother in question could not help but raise the price: "Junior sister, do you know that the lowest price here is ten Spiritual Beads per day? Moreover, you are an inner sect disciple with extraordinary talent, so there is no need to rent a cave mansion."
Of course, Gu Qing knew that the aptitude of the inner disciples was not bad. Normally, they would be at the peak of Qi Cultivating Stage within five years, but whether they could reach Foundation Establishment or not was another story. The ones with weaker aptitudes would at most take seven or eight years. From the looks of it, ordinary people did not need to rent their abode.
But what Gu Qing lacked the most right now was time. Furthermore, she was not lacking in money, if she could use it to buy time, spending it would be worth it!
Therefore, she maintained her smile on her face. "Senior Brother, I understand. It's just that I have my own plans."
After all, they were kind enough to point out that this new disciple did not appreciate their kindness. But suddenly, the other party flipped his palm, and tens of Low Grade Spiritual Stone s appeared in his palm, "I want to rent the lowest grade cave abode. These fifty Spiritual Stone s can be considered as the deposit, so when I come out, I will settle the rest, how about we make up for it?"
Since they already took out the Spiritual Stone, what else could they say, so they nodded, "Then I wish Junior Sister can quickly raise her cultivation," they didn't waste their time on these Spiritual Stone.
It had to be known that the inner sect disciples of the Meditation Stage would only give out less than ten Low Grade Spiritual Stone s a year, and the outer sect disciples were even less. This was the first time they had seen Meditation Stage disciples who took several tens of Low Grade Spiritual Stone to rent a cave. A single Low Grade Spiritual Stone could only be rented out for ten days at a time like the price of ten Spiritual Beads per day.
After he finished speaking, one of them led Gu Qing into the back mountain.
Gu Qing watched on as she walked, and the moment she entered the boundaries of the back mountain, a dense amount of spirit qi rushed to her face. It was said that there was a spirit vein here, and according to the location of the spirit vein, they would be carved out into different caves.
Very quickly, Gu Qing was led to a place with thinner spirit energy, and the gatekeeping disciple pointed towards one of the caves. "Junior Sister, you can stay here from now on.
Gu Qing nodded and smiled, "Thank you senior brother."
After the senior brother turned around and left, Gu Qing looked around and realized that there was no one living in the cave nearby.
Although she could afford to spend ten Spiritual Beads a day, she couldn't afford to waste them, so she immediately entered a state of cultivation after entering the cave.
Spiritual Qi was gathering from all directions, and it was indeed close to ten times richer than outside. This kind of state was simply too wonderful, and she couldn't stop for a moment.
There was no longer any time in the cave as time flew by. In the blink of an eye, three months had passed. Gu Qing, who had always been sitting in seclusion in her cave, suddenly opened her eyes with an excited smile on her face. Right now she had reached the peak of Qi Disciple level 6, I believe she will be able to reach the seventh level in a short time.
But the third, sixth, and ninth levels were not easy to overcome. This had nothing to do with whether the spiritual energy in the body was full or not, but rather the timing.
Gu Qing felt that she was only missing this tiny opportunity and was unable to break through. She relaxed and took out a book from her storage bag. It was the low-grade Profound Level technique "Misty Rain Sword" that Hee Zhixian had bought for her from the auction house.
She had tried to learn it before, but she couldn't grasp its essence. At that time, it might have been because she wasn't strong enough, but now she could try again.
Within three months, she walked out of the cave for the first time. She used a dedusting technique on herself, removing all the dust on her body before she came out refreshed.
The back mountain was very big and the cave she was in was very remote, it was very close to the forest of back mountain and you could often hear the cries of Spiritual Beast.
Gu Qing walked in, at the same time focusing on studying the Misty Rain Sword.
The Misty Rain Sword was actually a water type technique. Fortunately, she did not have any spiritual roots of the element inside her body, otherwise, the power of the Misty Rain Sword would have been greatly reduced.
She immediately began using the same method as before.
In the misty fog, a sword made of spirit energy hacked towards the tree trunk.
"Ka!" The tree that had been wrapped around with both hands suddenly snapped in response. When she stepped into Qi Disciple level 5, she had used this technique, but it was definitely not as powerful as it was now.
Furthermore, the great power of the Misty Rain Sword was not considered a trump card, but a sword that was indistinct and formless. When used, it could transform into rain and fog, making it impossible for the opponent to determine their whereabouts.
Gu Qing cultivated in the cave for five days in a row. She trained in the Misty Rain Sword in the back mountain during the day and levelled up neither fast nor slow.
Gu Qing was extremely surprised, with her current cultivation at Qi Disciple level 7 and Misty Rain Sword, as long as she did not meet High Ranked Cultivator who also had the same Profound Level and techniques, she was confident in her ability to fight.
"Gu Qing, Gu Qing!"
She immediately turned her head to look, only to see Liu Ying dressed in men's clothing, and holding onto a fan, she pretended to be graceful, but because there was no one around, she held onto a fan and jumped about, looking extremely inharmonious.
"How did you know I was here?" The Misty Rain Sword in Gu Qing's hand disappeared into nothingness.
Liu Ying leapt over in quick steps, "I asked around for a long time before I found out that you were in closed-door training here. I really don't know why you like training so much. There are so many interesting things in life. "
"Such as?" Gu Qing raised her eyebrow, the corner of her mouth raised, she also knew that there were many interesting things in life, but if she could not even control her freedom, then what would be interesting?
"For example, teasing my junior!" "Of course I have something to say. I heard that half a year later, Master Chang Hua will be bringing a group of Meditation Stage disciples out for an adventure, allowing them to leave the Huaqing Palace. How can I miss such an interesting thing like this, Gu Qing, I want to go, and you must go as well."
Of course she would go, the light in her eyes flashed as she stared at Liu Ying, "Do you have any requirements?" After all, there were several hundred Huaqing Palace disciples, so how could Yun Tian take them all away alone?
"Request? "I haven't heard about it. I must have a way to follow them anyway." Liu Ying laughed with pride.
"Dao Master Changhua isn't like other people. I think it's best for you to stay in seclusion with me for half a year. Maybe you'll have the chance to go out and gain experience together." As Gu Qing spoke, she no longer looked at Liu Ying who was cultivating with her legs crossed.
"Right, right!" Since you are going out to train, you must definitely kill Demonic Beast, I will move here to live with you right now. " With that, Liu Ying quickly ran off.
After around noon, Liu Ying appeared outside Gu Qing's cave once again, and commanded the outer sect disciples to carry the things for her.
When Gu Qing heard the commotion inside the cave, she initially wanted to ignore them but the giggling sounds of Liu Ying made it impossible for her to cultivate in peace. She frowned. She was now extremely regretful that she had said something extra to let her go into seclusion.
But she never thought that Liu Ying would actually go into closed door cultivation, next to her room.
She slowly walked out of the cave and saw one outer sect disciple after another moving all the furniture into the cave. Gu Qing's face changed, "Are you going into closed door cultivation or moving out?"
Liu Ying heard her voice and immediately came forward, "Go into closed door cultivation! But to go into closed-door training is so boring, so of course I can't treat myself unfairly. "
Gu Qing looked for a long time and finally understood what was going on. It seemed that Liu Ying had just moved here from a different place, to a different bed, from a tea cup, and then finally to a different place.
"We'll be neighbors from now on!" Liu Ying said happily as she turned around and entered Gu Qing's cave.
A moment later, her face was filled with surprise as she walked out. "Why is there nothing in your room?"
Not even a bed or a stool! Liu Ying could not imagine, especially the beautiful face of the girl in front of him, she must be lying on the most beautiful bed, covered by the most beautiful blanket, eating the most exquisite pastries.
"Because I'm here to go into seclusion." It wasn't that Gu Qing didn't like those things, it was that she didn't have time. At this moment, she was even more certain that Liu Ying's identity was extraordinary.
Putting aside the fact that they had to eat all of these things, they were all meticulously chosen. Even this abode was not something an ordinary person could live in. She had spent a lot of her wealth living here, and looking at Liu Ying's appearance, it was just a small matter.
She did not have the time to waste, especially after knowing that Dao Yuntian would take the Meditation Stage disciples out to train, she used every second of her time to cultivate.
Thus, he waved his hand, "I'll be going to back mountain."
"Hey, wait for me, I want to go too." Liu Ying shouted, ignoring the strange looks from the outer sect disciples.
In their eyes, Liu Ying was only a man, but she slept on pink curtains and sheets, some of the other things were so exquisite that only females could use them.
Liu Ying was a lunatic, she did not care about the gazes of others at all and waved her hand, "Be careful not to ruin my things, after you have put it away properly, you can leave."
After he finished speaking, he quickly chased after Gu Qing.
"Why are you following me?" Gu Qing looked at Liu Ying who was panting heavily and asked.
"I'll follow you in cultivation. Your cultivation must have increased this fast. I'll definitely benefit greatly by following you in cultivation."
Thus, Liu Ying was right to say that idiots have good fortune.
"Since you want to practice cultivation with me, then go and kill ten Level One Spiritual Beast over there."
"Huh?" Liu Ying opened her eyes wide, as though she was unwilling, "I just moved today, I'm a bit tired."
Gu Qing no longer looked at her, "Then don't follow me in the future."
"Alright, alright, I'll go." Seeing Gu Qing's gloomy face, Liu Ying's heart quivered, he did not understand what was going on and agreed.
Then, he unwillingly moved towards the back mountain.
As she slowly moved away, Gu Qing opened her eyes. Liu Ying's talent must be really good, otherwise with her lazy personality, how could she be at Qi Disciple level 4 at such a young age?
