?
Mo Qingchen only felt a coolness in his palm, the fragrance of medicine intoxicating him. When he looked carefully, they were three pellets of emerald green medicine, about the size of longan fruit, crystal clear and translucent. If an ordinary person saw them, they would definitely think they were rare pearls.
At this moment, the Moon Goddess threw a jade hairpin into the air, and it instantly enlarged to the size of a small boat before stopping.
Mo Qingchen only then discovered that the head of the jade hairpin actually had a lively and vivid jade rabbit lying on it, looking silly and cute.
The fairy of the bright moon pulled Mo Feiyan, lightly jumping onto the jade hairpin, nodding slightly at Mo Daxiang, and flying upwards into the sky.
The crowd looked up in silence, and saw the fairy maiden in white clothes like a blue smoke veil, her skirt fluttering, while Mo Fei's snowy clothes flew high, standing alone, the two of them stood on the jade hairpin and flew farther and higher, as if rushing straight to the bright moon in the sky.
The goddess of doubt descends from the clouds, and departs like a celestial being to the edge of the moon.
Mo Qingchu gazed blankly at the two figures as their silhouettes gradually merged into the vast and profound night sky, her eyes flashing with envy, admiration, curiosity, and other emotions. In the end, she lowered her eyelids, looked at the three elixirs in her hand, and smiled faintly.
"It's all over." After a long time, Mo Dashi said with an inexplicable tone, as if he was sighing or rejoicing.
The crowd dispersed slowly, but many people involuntarily looked up at the sky as they left.
"Yan'er, you must be good." The thin and frail woman stood in the courtyard, muttering to herself, then turned around without looking back, her lotus steps light and quick, swiftly leaving this place.
Mo Danyan walked forward with his granddaughter's small hand, staring at the woman's lonely back and shaking his head: "Mo Yangshi is also a pitiful person."
"Grandpa." Mo Qingchen saw a hint of desolation on Mo Dashan's face and called out.
Mo Danyan patted Mo Qingchen's head and said: "Girl, today's opportunity was taken by Feiyan. Do you resent it?"
Mo Qingchen shook his head: "Grandfather, Ninth Sister is a variant Ice Spirit Root, and it's perfectly normal for her to get the favor of the Moon Goddess. I still have some self-awareness, so why would I harbor resentment?"
"Then, will you lose heart because of your own spiritual root?" Mo Danyan asked hesitantly. He really didn't want to mention this, but he was also afraid that today's events would leave hidden troubles for his little granddaughter. If her mind was disturbed, it would be troublesome later on.
"Grandfather, I have self-awareness. I was saying that my spiritual root is inferior, it's a congenital disadvantage. It's normal for others to look down on me, there's nothing to resent. But please be at ease. I won't lose heart because of this. On the contrary, because of my innate insufficiency, I will work even harder in the future. Look, today I also have gains. If not for today's cultivation reaching the third layer of Qi Refining, I would have missed it."
Mo Qingchen said, spreading open his palm, three emerald-colored pills stood on it.
Looking at his little granddaughter's smiling face, Mo Daxian couldn't help but repeatedly exclaimed: "Good, good, as long as you think clearly, that's all. Whether it's being an ordinary person or choosing the path of cultivation, Grandpa hopes that you are doing what comes from your heart and makes you happy. If you're troubled by this, then it goes against the original intention."
Mo Qingchen wanted to ask Grandfather, are all cultivators thinking like you? Probably don't need to ask to know, people who think like Grandfather are rare, the vast majority of cultivators are always thinking about getting stronger, and for this they take all sorts of measures. But does that mean they're definitely wrong?
There are countless paths in life, and each cultivator has their own path. Grandfather's path is to prioritize happiness and do what one wants to do, so what about your own path?
Mo Qingchen of the Three Layers of Qi Refining thought about this issue for the first time.
Seeing little Sun's dazed expression and unfocused eyes, Mo Daxian didn't say a word, but instead pulled her hand and steadily walked towards Yang Yi Garden.
Mo Qingchen came back to his senses and found that the cultivation he had gained from eating the elixir seemed to have stabilized a lot, and he couldn't help but feel surprised. After some thought, although he hadn't figured out anything, it wasn't entirely without gain either.
"Wow, we're home." Mo Qingchen exclaimed, staring at the gate of Yangyuan.
"Girl, you've finally come back to your senses." Mo Danyan laughed.
Mo Qingchen chuckled and smiled.
"By the way, little girl, do you know what purpose the elixir given by Fairy Hua Yue to the three of you serves?" Mo Da Nian suddenly asked.
Mo Qingchen blinked his eyes: "Grandfather is talking about the Jade Germ Pill? Mo Qingchen remembered that in the Tianyuan Xiuzhen Detailed Explanation, among the pills that can be taken by Qi Refining stage cultivators, there was no mention of this one."
Mo Danyan nodded and said, "That's natural. This Jade Germ Pill is not a common elixir, it's priceless in the market. Maid, the Gathering Spirit Pills you usually take are the most commonly used pills for Qi Refining stage cultivators to increase their cultivation. As for the Gathering Spirit Elixir, it's used by Foundation Building stage cultivators. If a Qi Refining stage cultivator were to take it, they would be unable to withstand the medicinal power and suffer severe consequences, or even explode and die. This Jade Germ Pill is precious not only because it can be taken by Qi Refining stage cultivators, with an effect that surpasses the Gathering Spirit Pills, but also because it has a great advantage: it can help Qi Refining stage cultivators break through bottlenecks. For example, breaking through the difficult stages of 4th to 5th or 8th to 9th, with the help of this Jade Germ Pill, the chances of success will increase greatly. Therefore, this Jade Germ Pill is even more precious than common Foundation Building stage elixirs."
"Ah, so the Jade Bud Dan is that precious!" Mo Qingchen exclaimed with a stunned expression, saying that the White Moon Fairy was indeed generous.
Mo Danyan burst out laughing: "Silly girl, that Fairy of the Bright Moon is a high-ranking cultivator in the Foundation Establishment stage. Of course, she wouldn't be stingy with her moves."
"Grandfather, Qingchen is now starting to feel depressed. I'm so envious of Ninth Sister, having a master who's in the Dan-forming stage, and from then on, taking dan medicine as if it were sugar beans. Won't her cultivation soar like flying on a sword?" Mo Qingchen sighed.
Mo Danyan gazed at his little granddaughter's expression, but found a flash of shyness on her face. He tapped her forehead with his middle finger and said, "Little devil, teasing your grandfather again."
Returning to his house, Mo Qingchen suppressed the urge to take out a pill and eat it, instead cultivating diligently.
In the dark room without light, a girl in a white dress sat cross-legged, her face calm and peaceful, with a faint glow surrounding her body. The spiritual energy between heaven and earth enveloped her, with soft moonlight sprinkled on her face, setting off her skin like jade.
By the bedside, Wangchuan stood quietly, silently facing the direction of the little girl.
Mo Da Year, who had not slept, looked in the direction of Mo Qingchen's room and shook his head. The Nurturing Jade Courtyard did not have any concealing arrays, so he could clearly see that there was spiritual energy surging into her house, obviously she was cultivating. He shook his head and said: "This girl is really willing to work hard."
With a wave of his hand, the white corner lamp went out quietly.
It wasn't until much later that Mo Qingchen opened his eyes, rubbing his temples and smiling wryly: "Cultivation really isn't something to be rushed. Even with a good physical condition, the spirit can't keep up, no wonder cultivators still need sleep."
After finishing speaking, she fell directly onto the soft big bed, closed her eyes and soon fell asleep.
Although a master should get proper rest, they don't need to sleep as much as ordinary people. As their cultivation level increases, the amount of rest needed decreases. Especially when breaking through to the next level in closed-door meditation, some masters can go without food for ten days, half a month, or even several months. Of course, cultivators in the Qi Refining stage cannot abstain from food; if they don't take Food Abstinence Pills, they will naturally become hungry and unable to continue their cultivation, which is common knowledge.
But after a short while, Mo Qingchen woke up refreshed and alert, gazing at the whitening sky, got out of bed neatly, and started his daily routine.
Time flies when cultivating, and soon it was late in the afternoon. Mo Qingchen, Hu Tou, and Mo Ningrou left together, and after Mo Ranyi left Chongyang Hall, Mo Ningrou naturally joined the other two.
"Hutou, Qingchen, yesterday I went back and listened to Father say that the Yuanyu Xianzi gave you the Jade Germ Pill, it's really a great medicine." Mo Jingru today wore a pair of sheep horn braids, wrapped in goose yellow silk ribbons, her face was flushed, her eyes were shining brightly, looking delicate and lovely.
"Fourteenth sister, have one." Hu Tou heard and took out a Jade Bud Pill from his storage bag without hesitation.
Mo Qingchen's face was dark with shame, but after hearing Mo Ningrou's words, he hesitated for a moment before deciding whether to give her one. However, Hu Tou took it out without any hesitation.
Arriving at the Mo residence, among peers, the two people in front of him were the ones he got along with the most. Thinking about how they had treated him sincerely over the past two years, Mo Qingchen also took out a Yu Ya Dan from his storage bag and said: "Fourteenth Sister, you take this one too. This way, each of us three will have two."
Hutou patted his hands and said, "Qingchen is absolutely right, bookworms also like to read:"
Mo Ning's face turned slightly red, and she hurriedly waved her hand, saying: "No need, no need, I just feel that the White Moon Fairy is very generous, Ninth Sister will definitely be fine in the future."
"Fourteenth sister, don't be modest anymore. Don't you want to leave Chao Yang Hall with us?" Mo Qingchen said, liking her kind heart while also persuading her as she faced the good medicinal pellets but didn't want to take them for herself.
"Huh? What's that, Qingchen? Fourteenth Sister and you leaving Chongyang Hall together is still okay, I'm definitely going out earlier than you guys."
"Tiger head!" Mo Qingchen helplessly shouted, this kid really is confident.
Mo Ning's lips curled up slightly as she smiled, and with a wave of her hand, she said, "Look."
In her palm lay a bright green pill.
"Yu Ya Dan, Fourteenth Sister you——" Hu Tou's eyes widened in surprise, and he looked at what was in his hand again, it was indeed exactly the same.
Seeing the tiger head's appearance, Mo Ning Rou hehe smiled and said: "It was given by tenth sister."
"Ah, tenth sister actually gave you Yu Yudan, her temper is so bad..." Hu Tou said incredulously.
Mo Ning Rong glared at him and scolded: "It's not like that, actually tenth sister is very good to me."
Mo Qingchen smiled slightly, Mo Ranyi was arrogant and unrestrained as if no one was around, after all she was Mo Ningrou's older sister. It seemed that she truly cared for her younger sister, even giving her a precious Yu Ya Dan.
Mo Jingyu persisted in declining, thinking that she also had one. Mo Qingchen didn't ask again, after all, he was a four-spirit root, and his cultivation was only at the initial stage of refining Qi. In the future, there would be many places where he would need elixirs, and he didn't have enough money to spend lavishly.
The days of cultivation were originally calm and peaceful, but in just a few days, Mo Qingchen heard about something that had some connection to himself.
