Sitting cross-legged on the futon, Gu Xuan asked solemnly: "Senior, how long is the two-year period?"

Wang Mang was obviously planning his days secretly, and quickly responded: "It will be about four months from the time you retreat, and the two years mentioned by Lu Biao are obviously earlier. The cultivation of mind power has little to do with aptitude, but depends on the potential of spiritual roots.

"

Gu Xuan showed a wry smile: "With my poor spiritual root potential, how long will it take for me to develop telekinesis?"

Wang Mang was silent for a while: "A spiritual root with medium potential usually lasts half a year, but with your potential, it will take at least a year."

Gu Xuan thoughtfully said: "Then I might as well leave the seclusion now and make more preparations for the Taoist Ceremony."

"That's right." Wang Mang agreed, "So far, you have only practiced for three years. Ximen Shu needs to be in seclusion for ten years. Even if it is advanced, the difference will not be too much. You have enough time to advance to the Gangli realm."

Gu Xuan's eyes shone brightly and his expression was firm: "The Wen Dao Ceremony is very important to me. Whether I can advance to the Gangli Realm depends on this, and there is no room for failure."

Wang Mang said slowly: "If there are no other variables, refer to the Dao Dao Ceremony in previous years, and your current combat power reserve is enough to cope with it."

Gu Xuan took out the fusheng bag: "I hope Xiaoqing can advance."

Wang Mang asserted: "It hasn't arrived in two years, it's not that fast."

Gu Xuan held the fusheng bag, his true strength was consistent, and Linghe did not show up.

Wang Mang analyzed: "I expected it to be true. Xiaoqing is still sleeping. With her inherited bloodline, if she only absorbs the power of the Boiling Blood Pill, it won't take such a long time, and she must be in the realm of impact."

Gu Xuan put away the bag of life: "If Xiaoqing is still unable to wake up, she will have one less helping hand when she asks about the grand ceremony."

Wang Mang comforted: "Xiao Qing had a second-level peak cultivation before. Only after stimulating the inherited bloodline can she control the power of the bloodline. This time, with the help of the Boiling Blood Pill, she can forcibly advance with the power of the bloodline. I believe it won't take long.

"

"I hope so." Gu Xuan smiled casually, stood up and twisted his muscles.

…

Xun Dong was sitting on a stone chair in the courtyard, crossing his legs comfortably, humming a tune and sipping tea leisurely.

"The young master has left seclusion."

Seeing Gu Xuan open the door and come out, Xun Dong reacted quickly, stood up quickly, and said hello with a smile.

Gu Xuan didn't respond, just nodded slightly and kept staring into the distance.

Based on his current state, one can easily see that Xun Dong's cultivation has advanced to the realm of true power.

Not only that, he also found that he could see farther and hear more clearly.

Wang Mang said: "This is a unique state in the late stage of the True Power Realm. Once you develop the power of mind, you will be able to observe the details carefully."

Seeing Gu Xuan standing still, Xun Dong thought that the young master was dissatisfied with his idleness, so he couldn't help but scratch his head.

Gu Xuan came to his senses and waved his hand quickly: "What are you doing standing still? Quickly order someone to boil water. I want to take a bath."

"Okay." Xun Dong ran away as if he was being amnesty.

…

"When did you advance?"

The water vapor was like mist, and Gu Xuan was soaking comfortably in the medicinal soup, with only his head exposed, resting on the edge of the large wooden barrel.

Xun Dong was sitting on the small stool next to him. When he heard Gu Xuan's question, he was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise: "Young master can tell that the young master has advanced to the late stage of the true power realm?"

Gu Xuan smiled: "With my young master's qualifications, advancement is inevitable, but I haven't yet developed my telekinesis power."

Xun Dong said excitedly: "During the young master's retreat, Chu Xixi and Xiao Xiao successively advanced to the true power realm, and they finally lived up to the young master's cultivation."

"Great kindness." Gu Xuan said with a satisfied look on his face, "Shut up.

In the past two years, there should be a lot of big things happening in the villa."

"Indeed, Rong Xiaoxiao came one by one." Xun Dong nodded, "Not long after the young master went into seclusion, Chu Lian sent a message that during the training process, Miss Su was actually accepted as a disciple by a bald master in the magic realm.

"

Gu Xuan couldn't help but think of the turbulent scene with Su Fei, but he asked knowingly: "Which Miss Su?"

"That's Su Fei."

Gu Xuan changed the subject: "Su Fei seems to be training with Sister Xiang. Is there any news about Sister Xiang?"

Xun Dong recalled carefully: "Miss Xiang has not returned to the village since she went out for training. It is said that she stayed in the Luoshui branch to practice."

Gu Xuan fiddled with the water and said thoughtfully: "What other news?"

Xun Dong reported: "Ximen Qing left seclusion half a year ago and failed to advance to the Gangli realm. A few days ago, he and Ximen Hao came to visit the young master. According to my observation, the two of them got very close."

Gu Xuan sneered: "Ximen Hao will definitely try his best to win over Ximen Qing if he loses Ximen Jie."

Xun Dong continued: "Not long ago, Master Fei also came here and asked me to tell the young master to go find him when I leave the customs."

…

It was mid-autumn, the sun was warm and the breeze was refreshing. Gu Xuan walked alone on the stone path, like strolling in a leisurely courtyard.

When they saw Master Shu, who had disappeared for almost two years, the servants on the road not only saluted respectfully, but were more surprised.

The gate of Feihuayuan was open, but no one was seen at the door. Gu Xuan walked in by himself, as if he were entering a home.

When a maid cleaning fallen leaves saw Gu Xuan, she was stunned. After a long while, she shrank her head and asked timidly: "Who are you looking for?"

Gu Xuan looked at the young maid in front of him and found it interesting. He put his hands behind his back and shouted fiercely: "Tell Ximen Fei to get out of here quickly. I have to skin him today."

The frightened maid dropped the broom and ran while shouting: "Master, come out quickly, there is a villain in the yard."

Ximen Fei was painting in the study room. When he heard the noise, he quickly put down his brush and ran out quickly. He pointed at Gu Xuan from a distance and shouted: "Hey, Ximen Shu. You yelled when you came. Xiaobai is new here."

Yeah, don’t scare her."

The study door was open, and Gu Xuan looked at Ximen Fei carefully: "You are only at the middle stage of the True Strength Realm. Do you still have free time to paint?"

"Hey, let's talk after you come in." Ximen Fei sighed softly, "Xiao Bai, quickly brew two cups of spiritual tea."

I don’t know if the little maid heard it, because she didn’t respond at all.

Ximen Fei turned around and closed the study door, and brought Gu Xuan to the living room, where they sat next to each other.

Gu Xuan looked at Ximen Fei again and narrowed his eyes slightly: "We haven't seen each other for two years. Fei brother has not only grown taller, but his mood seems to have changed as well."

Ximen Fei said slowly: "The situation is not up to anyone. Su Fei turned to worship the powerful monk as his teacher, and Sister Xiang insisted on staying in the Luoshui Sect. Suddenly there were two people missing. My grandpa and I decided not to participate in the ceremony. What a shame.

Accumulate your true strength, and you will be able to make great achievements in the future."

Gu Xuan still hopes that Ximen Fei will fight with Ximen Hao: "Ximen Hao also lost Ximen Jie."

Ximen Fei said in a deep voice: "But Ximen Hao has roped in Ximen Qing again. As soon as he came out of seclusion, he opposed me. Most of the maids were bribed by him. In a fit of anger, he simply replaced all the maids."

Gu Xuan promptly expressed his position: "I still support you, why are you afraid of what they will do?"

Ximen Fei corrected: "How can I be afraid of them? I'm just holding back for a while. The days are long. Let's wait and see."

Gu Xuan said it was time to stop: "Let's talk about the big competition in the village. The people in Shuxiangyuan don't know much about it."

The maid who was scared away by Gu Xuan at first walked in, carrying two cups of spiritual tea, walking in small steps, swaying, and her head almost dropped to her chest.

Gu Xuan became playful and cleared his throat deliberately: "Hey, hold on tight, the spiritual tea is overflowing."

Xiaobai hurriedly took a look and saw that the tea cup was as stable as a millstone, and said angrily: "Where is that? That's nonsense!"

Gu Xuan winked and asked: "Where did you pick it up? It's so cute."

Ximen Fei chuckled: "A filial piety from a family warrior."

Xiaobai put down the tea cup, hugged the tray, plucked up the courage, snorted at Gu Xuan, and ran away.

Ximen Fei coughed lightly and continued the topic: "How much does Brother Shu know about the Dao Dao Festival?"

Gu Xuan shook his head: "I never paid attention to it in the past and didn't know much."

"The Qianqiu Blessed Land of Xi Kingdom has a long history. It has many elixirs, including the three main ingredients for refining the Spirit-Calling Pill. The so-called Dao Dao Ceremony means entering the Qianqiu Blessed Land to collect medicines."

Ximen Fei paused for a moment, took a sip of spiritual tea, and continued his story.

"The Qianqiu Blessed Land is sealed by the Feng Shui formation. It is a self-contained space inside. It is usually completely closed. It is only opened once every twenty years. Only those who are in the True Power Realm can enter safely."

Ximen Shu knew very little about the Dao Dao Ceremony. Gu Xuan had just left seclusion and had not yet asked Wang Mang for advice. He immediately asked: "How many people enter the Qianqiu Blessed Land at each Dao Dao Ceremony?"

Ximen Fei wanted to participate in the Dao Dao Ceremony in the early days. After learning about it in detail, he blurted out: "There are three hundred people each time, eighty people from the Great Xi Dynasty, forty people from each of the three Daodao Sects, twenty people from each of the four major families, and

There are also twenty casual cultivators and Jianghu warriors."

Gu Xuan suddenly realized: "It seems that the villa competition is to select the herbal pickers."

"Exactly." Ximen Fei nodded, "I heard that Patriarch Zhang only allocated five people to the collateral clan this time. It can be predicted that the Villa Competition will be very fierce."

Gu Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly: "When will the Villa Grand Competition be held?"

"Three months later." Ximen Fei touched his chin, "With Brother Shu's fighting power, are you still able to capture him? Will you be able to develop telekinesis during this retreat?"

"Only advanced to the later stage." Gu Xuan drank the Kou Ling Tea, "Who are the other Taoist seedlings participating?"

"There is no definite news yet." Ximen Fei raised his eyebrows and smiled, "There are only a few Taoist seedlings, so it is not difficult to figure out."

Gu Xuan didn't know much about the current situation of other Dao seedlings, so he didn't respond and only looked at Ximen Fei.

Ximen Feidao said: "I left the village for training half a year ago. I went to the Luoshui Sect, and Sister Xiang personally stated that she would participate. If the two Taoist seedlings want to advance to the Gangli Realm, the Dao Festival is the only way, and they will definitely participate.

Ximen Qing is in the same situation, so there is no reason not to participate."

"Where is Ximen Hao?"

Gu Xuan suddenly remembered that Ximen Hao already had a soul-summoning pill, and the villa provided one, so he could advance without any worries.

Ximen Fei pondered: "With his spiritual root potential, he has little chance of getting a Spirit Summoning Pill. It is reasonable that he will not miss the opportunity, but I have no intention of participating, and he may not go either."

"This is reasonable." Gu Xuan agreed, "I don't look down on those side warriors. The biggest opponent in the Shanzhuang Competition should be Ximen Qing."

"Ximen Qing is over thirty years old and has been practicing abroad for many years. His combat experience is unquestionable." Ximen Fei paused, "Ximen Hao has mentioned many times that he wants to fight you, so I have to guard against it."
