Lingzhi Garden is located in the middle of Ximen Villa, and is also the center of the array to protect the village.

After Lu Biao fulfilled his promise, he exchanged a few words casually, then sent Gu Xuan away and was sent to the door by the butler.

After leaving Lingzhi Garden, Gu Xuan walked along the path, Wang Mang's happy voice echoing in his mind.

"You are so lucky. If you can become a secret explorer, get the middle-grade Spirit Summoning Pill, and save your life, you will be able to advance to the Gangli Realm just around the corner."

Gu Xuan clenched his fists tightly and revealed his eyes: "No matter what, we must win the first place in this Ximen Competition, and the explorer's quota cannot be lost."

Wang Mang analyzed: "Lv Biao never makes promises easily. I will probably protect you this time."

Gu Xuan asked softly: "Those three magic secret talismans, do you want to test them? Even the village owner doesn't know how much real power to use to activate them. If they are like the talismans, they cannot be used easily."

Wang Mang thought: "I have never seen the three skeleton secret talismans before. Since Lu Biao gave them to you specifically, I think there won't be any big drawbacks. The real power should not exceed 50%."

Gu Xuanlue pondered for a while: "You still have to experiment, so that you have confidence in your heart and can be sure to use it."

Wang Mang said: "You make up your own mind, there is no need to rush."

…

Gu Xuan originally wanted to go to Sanyang Residence, but learned from Lu Biao that Li Xing was still practicing in seclusion.

Wang Mang also said that the time it takes to break through the middle stage of the Gangli Realm varies from person to person, and it will take at least several years.

So, Gu Xuan came to the first floor of Zangdao Pavilion alone and had a conversation with the commander Ximen Yihao.

The current situation of Daomiao in Ximen Villa is clear, Ximen Fei and Ximen Hao are facing each other tit for tat, and their differences are clear.

This made Ximen Yi rely more heavily on Gu Xuan, and the smile on his face never diminished.

Gu Xuan took the opportunity to ask some in-depth questions, and Ximen Yi naturally told him everything he knew and taught him everything he could.

After communicating for half an hour, Gu Xuan finally mentioned his intention: "Uncle Yi, if I take advantage of this opportunity, how many power-building pills can I receive at most?"

Ximen Villa did not have middle-grade strength-building elixirs. Gu Xuan came here specially to receive the elixirs because he just wanted to give them to his servants.

According to Lu Biao's original promise at Zangdao Pavilion, Gu Xuan still has two opportunities to receive a large amount of resources.

This is the last chance to receive a large amount of resources, which Gu Xuan plans to use before attacking the Gangli realm.

Ximen Yi said slowly: "Young Master Shu also knows that the villa has been practicing hard in the past two years and has consumed a lot of elixirs. With my meager authority, I can only approve five bottles at most. Otherwise, I need the approval of the villa owner."

Gu Xuan did not hesitate: "Then five bottles, and get a few more in the storage bag."

"There are quite a few storage bags. The materials for refining storage bags can be collected in Qianqiu Blessed Land." Ximen Yi chuckled and went to prepare the elixir.

…

Gu Xuan returned to Shuxiangyuan with satisfaction and threw a bottle of elixir and a storage bag to Xun Dong.

In the study, Gu Xuan laid out the scrolls obtained from the secret passage of Lingshan on the table and read the text carefully.

As Wang Mang said, cultivating virtual strength is very similar to cultivating magical skills.

By condensing the Dafa Talisman in the lower Dantian, the true power can be transformed into virtual power, which can then be stored in the perineum acupoints.

The scroll also recorded several ways of exerting virtual energy and their corresponding powers, which made Gu Xuan very jealous.

"Senior, this scroll is indeed a valuable treasure. I have no intention of cultivating virtual strength, so I might as well exchange it for treasures."

"Exchange with whom?"

"Master Leng Yue."

Wang Mang commented: “Leng Yue’s real person looks like

She is kind, but has a clear sense of grudges and does not like to owe favors. If she likes her, she will definitely repay her."

Gu Xuan frowned and thought: "Xu Jin has its own value, Master Lengyue should not dislike it."

Wang Mang retorted: "Of course I won't dislike it, but I won't take a fancy to it either. If you offer this thing before the Qiuyue fight, you will definitely get a big reward."

Gu Xuan suddenly realized: "That's right. At this juncture, I went to offer the treasure, and my thoughts are obvious. If Master Leng Yue refuses, I will only be asking for trouble."

Wang Mang suggested: "You have to leave the village anyway, so you can go to Lingmiao Sect and exchange middle-grade strength elixirs with Jiang Feng. If Jiang Feng intends to participate in the Taoist Ceremony, he will definitely need Xu Jin even more."

Gu Xuanlue pondered for a while, his eyes brightened slightly: "Jiang is still old and spicy. Senior has a wonderful idea. This is a great good thing."

Wang Mang changed the subject: "I can use it as an excuse to leave the village this time."

Gu Xuan's expression changed: "Please give me some advice from my seniors. I only know that the experience in the early stages of the True Power Realm is called Heart Refining, and the experience in the later stages of the True Power Realm is called Heart Cleansing."

Wang Mang said slowly: "In the late stage of impacting the True Power Realm, recalling the past on your own will help you find flaws in your mind and make some kind of compensation to reduce the inner demons that impact the Gangli Realm."

Gu Xuanruo had an enlightenment: "What my senior taught me that day at my former residence in Pingshan seems to be a way to cleanse my heart."

Wang Mang praised: "Because of this, you don't need to wash your mind. You can just relax on this trip."

Gu Xuan then took out a blank album and copied the contents of the scroll completely. The crooked handwriting made Wang Mang laugh.

…

After lunch, Gu Xuan swaggered into Feihuayuan.

I saw Xiaobai squatting in the courtyard, holding a dry branch and teasing a group of foraging ants.

Gu Xuan coughed lightly and then showed a kind smile: "Xiao Bai, where is Ximen Fei?"

"Not here."

Xiao Bai raised his eyes, responded casually, and turned around on the spot, facing away from Gu Xuan.

Gu Xuan couldn't help but joke: "Hey, the line on the hip is torn."

Xiaobai touched it with his backhand and found no cracks. This guy was so disgusting, so he snorted and ran away with a red face.

Ximen Fei walked in, happened to see this scene, and shouted quickly: "Ximen Shu, you are bullying my little Bai again."

Gu Xuan turned around and smiled: "You don't practice all day long, so you just wander around like this?"

Ximen Fei asked back: "As soon as I went out, I got news that you had been to Lingzhi Garden in the morning?"

Gu Xuan's face did not change, and he sat on the stone chair: "I am here just for this matter. The owner of the village hopes that I can practice my mind power as soon as possible. He has taught me some experience and suggested that I practice it and cleanse my mind. In addition..."

Ximen Fei came over and sat next to him: "What else?"

Gu Xuan lowered his voice: "The owner of the village made it clear that after the grand ceremony, the Spirit Summoning Pill will be tilted towards the collateral Taoist seedlings."

When Ximen Fei heard this, he couldn't help but touch his chin: "There are not many collateral Taoist seedlings. According to the owner's wishes, even if you don't participate in the Dao Dao Ceremony, you have a high chance of getting two Spirit-Calling Pills."

Gu Xuan thought: "When the time comes to distribute the Spirit Summoning Pills, I think the village owner will try to get more from his direct descendants."

Ximen Fei said: "In that case, Brother Shu has left the village to practice. He also invited the Luoshui Sect to try his best to persuade Sister Xiang to return to the village to practice."

"Do your best." Gu Xuan nodded, "The exclusive spirit crane is still injured, can I get another one?"

Ximen Fei knew the rules of the village quite well and blurted out: "You can't have red-crowned cranes, other cranes are free."

…

There are dense clouds high in the sky, the autumn wind is like a fierce song, and the fallen leaves rustle on the earth.

A black-feathered crane flew slowly. Gu Xuan, wearing a black Taoist robe with long sleeves, sat cross-legged on the crane's back.

The flying speed of the black-feathered crane is not as fast as that of the red-crowned crane. Compared with Xiaoqing, it is even more different from clouds and mud, which is worse than nothing.

This crane has just advanced to the second level and has become a mount for the first time. In addition to Gu Xuan's status as a Taoist seedling, it flies very hard and makes a clear cry from time to time to express its excitement.

As they were about to arrive at the back mountain of the Luoshui sect, a gray-feathered crane spread its wings and flew up, with Ximen Xiao and his daughter sitting cross-legged on the crane's back.

Gu Xuan's expression changed and he immediately ordered Linghe to adjust his direction.

"Brother, are you okay?"

The two cranes stopped in the air, very close to each other. Ximen Xiangpan sat in front and looked at Gu Xuan carefully, his eyes were like autumn water, and he greeted with a smile.

"Congratulations, Master Shu, for advancing to the later stage." The autumn wind shook his beard, and Ximen Xiao's voice sounded like a bell.

"It's just the late stage of advancement, and I haven't developed telekinesis yet. Sister Xiang is also in the middle stage of cultivation." Gu Xuan smiled, "Are you going out for something?"

Ximen Xiao said: "I really have something important to do on this trip. I'm about to rush to Four Seasons Castle. I can't delay it. If it's convenient, Master Shu, can we talk about it in detail on the way?"

"Of course it's convenient."

As the leader of a sect, Ximen Xiao would not be rude unless there was a reason for the incident. Gu Xuan was not dissatisfied.

At the command, the two cranes flew side by side towards the Four Seasons Fort.

Gu Xuan turned his head and asked: "When did Luoshui Sect have Linghe?"

Ximen Xiao said: "Last year, my uncle went to the villa to collect training resources for Xiang'er. He also picked up a few cranes to travel with the warriors in the sect. At that time, he found out that Master Shu had gone into seclusion to practice, so he did not come to disturb him."

"I see." Gu Xuan paused for a moment, "Why do uncle and Sister Xiang want to go to Four Seasons Castle?"

Ximen Xiao did not hide anything: "Xiang'er was in seclusion for more than a year. Her cultivation was stuck at the acupuncture point on the back of her head, and she could not advance even an inch. She had no choice but to get out. My uncle thought hard and finally found a shortcut."

Seeing that Gu Xuan was listening attentively, Ximen Xiao continued: "Brother Qin once had the opportunity to make a request to Master Lengyue. My uncle paid a heavy price for this opportunity and asked Master Lengyue to take action and forcibly clear the governor's veins for Xiang'er."

Gu Xuan was surprised: "Can the eight extraordinary meridians be forcibly dredged by external force?"

Ximen Xiao said: "Listen to what Brother Qin said, only the magic realm can have this ability."

Wang Mang explained the confusion: "Spiritual consciousness can guide the movement of true power, but mind power cannot. Compared with the domineering power of Gangli, magic power is gentler and will not harm the muscles and veins."

Gu Xuanluo thought about it and said: "To be honest, I had a relationship with Master Lengyue once. I left the village this time just to cleanse my mind. I also went to the Four Seasons Castle to reminisce about the past with the Lord of Qin Castle."

Ximen Xiao was overjoyed: "This is the best thing. I also ask Master Shu to say some kind words in front of Master Leng Yue."

Gu Xuan chuckled: "We are very different in cultivation and status, so my words won't work. Master Leng Yue will do what he says, so uncle, you can rest assured."

Ximen Xiao laughed and said, "No matter what, my uncle will feel more at ease with Master Shu accompanying him."

Gu Xuan glanced at Ximen Xiang and changed the subject: "Sister Xiang, regarding the Dao Dao Ceremony, the owner of the village once..."

Ximen Xiang interrupted: "I understand what you are going to say. There are still three months before the Villa Competition. We will see the situation then. If my fighting power is low and my hope is slim, I will have to give up and just hope that I can fulfill my filial piety for the rest of my life.

To make up for the many debts I owed to my father in the past."

After hearing these sincere words, Ximen Xiao sighed repeatedly and stroked his daughter's hair, his eyes full of love.
