Offering Salted Fish To Master - chapter 91
The Shi family was very large. The main branch was in the inner palace, and there were hundreds of people in the family when counted. So many people had children. The lower the cultivation base was, the more children they had. Once they were born in the Shi family and their blood was recognized, they would get a jade card that represented their identity. This card allowed them to pass through several trials and ascension places controlled by the Shi family in the inner palace.
For example, the thunderous valley that could block thunder tribulation to the greatest extent; profound medical pools that could heal wounds; pools that could suppress the inner demon and make peace of mind for cultivation, etc. As long as the children of the Shi clan meet certain requirements, they could enter it. They had many such treasures. From generation to generation, the Shi clan had come forth in large numbers, and they had a firm grasp of Gengchen Xianfu.
These places had their own special features, and the guards were also very strict. Except for the disciples of the Shi clan, even the Mu clan disciples who had the closest relationship with the Shi clan and married with them for generations could not get access.
Liao Tingyan didn’t know these inside stories. Sima Jiao never told her what arrangements he had. He would not explain anything in detail.
She took the little white mouse ‘Shi Yuxiang’, successfully passed the heavy guards, and entered the thunderous valley.
This valley was completely different from the beauty and exquisiteness of the mansion outside. It seemed to be another space. One couldn’t see the mountains, rivers, plants, birds and beasts, only the deep purple stones were everywhere; high and low, irregular, like a large quarry.Â
Liao Tingyan came in alone. Before leaving, Sima Jiao said to her, “I won’t be going in with you. You have to be by yourself.”
Fine!
Liao Tingyan didn’t feel stressed, until she walked in and found that she was the only person in the entire valley. She remembered that she seemed to have been with Sima Jiao not long after coming into this world. They never separated for more than three days. This time, if she wanted to break through, she may have to stay there for half a month.
But there was nothing she was unaccustomed to. After all, before meeting Sima Jiao, she lived alone for many years, and anyone who worked away from home had the experience of living alone. She had no other advantages, but she had super adaptability.Â
The thundering valley was very big. Liao Tingyan stood at the entrance for a while, looking for directions and walking over.
She found a thunderstone shaped like a bench, washed it with water, dried it with wind, then laid a soft cushion on it and set up a small umbrella.
She hadn’t forgotten the mouse, who she had brought. She took out a cover for her and set it aside. The cover was soundproof.
After finishing that, she pondered for a while, and used a warning technique to circle her resting place. After all, she was alone, so she had to pay more attention.
Whenever others came in, they would nervously and hurriedly find a place to practice cross-legged to consolidate cultivation, but Liao Tingyan laid down after finishing all these preparations.
On a tall deep purple thunder stone in the distance, Sima Jiao, who said he would not come in, was sitting there. With one hand on his knees, he was playing with a small dark black thunderstone, looking at Liao Tingyan from a distance.
Seeing Liao Tingyan’s behavior, he suddenly remembered that she was like this when he first saw her. There were so many people who had been sent to him for various purposes to approach him, and everyone else was worried and nervous. It was only her who slept peacefully alone.
She was like this wherever she went, and would properly post her own arrangements.
Sima Jiao played with the thunderstone for a while, and when the sky slowly dimmed. He moved forward slightly.
There was movement on Liao Tingyan’s side. It was not that she woke up, but that long insects emerged from under the thunder stone not far from her. Not only one came out, but there were many, almost surrounding her.
These long worms were called cryptophonic worms, and they could devour sounds. Since there were many worms in this thunderous valley, this place was so quiet. Otherwise such an empty and special terrain, would reverberate a little sound layer by layer.
These bugs were not worth mentioning to the cultivator, but if Liao Tingyan didn’t know how to deal with them, she would probably suffer a bit.
Sima Jiao had never seen Liao Tingyan kill anything. This slacker didn’t seem to know anything. She didn’t want to kill. Sometimes Sima Jiao felt that she was incompatible with the world.
He pressed his hands on the stone and moved forward slightly, but then he stopped.
Liao Tingyan woke up. She saw the long worms. She didn’t startle or panic. She took out a few pills and crushed them into powder and sprinkled them out. Then she took out the wide-mouthed jar to remove the long worms and put them into the big tank.
Sima Jiao found out that she seemed to be prepared, which was a little bit beyond his expectation. But what would she do with these long worms?
Over there, Liao Tingyan cleaned up the worms, washed her hands and face, put on a mask, and ate something. Then she took out a book, two jade slips and looked through them.
Sima Jiao could see that she was now preparing for a breakthrough, but what was she doing?
He didn’t know that the best quality of examination talents cultivated by modern examination-oriented education was psychological quality. Before the exam, they had to take a good rest and maintain a good and relaxed mood, so that they could give the exam properly. Of course, there were the main points summarized by the predecessors. It was also Liao Tingyan’s habit to relax before the exam and seek peace of mind.
In short, she was ready and began to advance.
At this time, Liao Tingyan’s mood was still very relaxed. She had read some books in the academy before and supplemented the basic knowledge. The aptitude and spiritual roots like hers were considered as ordinary middle-to-upper. From the stage of Qi refining to the stage of soul formation, there were nine great tribulations, each of which had four small tribulations.
The thunder valley was a special place, which could weaken thunder tribulation. She also brought the super defenses that the ancestor gave her, and she could break through no matter what happened.
However, this kind of relaxed mood changed and she became uneasy when she was about to make a breakthrough. Thunderclouds appeared in the sky.
The thundercloud was very heavy, faintly purple, covering the entire sky, and the faint electric light in the cloud gave people a heavy sense of oppression before the lightning struck.
