A corner of the secret realm, in front of a deserted hill.

Zhou Shu stared at the mound in front of him and was silent for a long time.

Liu Yuer, who was beside her, had some worries in her eyes and said softly, "Zhou...shu, you don't have to be sad. Breaking through the realm has always been the biggest obstacle for cultivators. Since he has chosen the path of cultivating immortals..."

"Either you will be able to ascend to immortality, or you will fall in the middle of the way."

Zhou Shu nodded and turned to look at Liu Yu'er, "Elder Liu, I'm not sad. Yang Hei is my best friend when I first entered the immortal cultivation, but since I have left, I have passed. I just thought of some past events and feel a little emotional."

He returned to the Hokkien School, but could not find Yang Hei's traces. He knew that something was wrong in his heart, and that was indeed the case.

When Yang Hei condensed the pill, he could not control his murderous intent and was backfired. The golden pill exploded as soon as it formed, and his soul and soul were destroyed, and his flesh and blood were gone.

Liu Yu'er sighed lightly, "Zhou...shu, it's actually my fault. I didn't see that the hatred he was hiding was so strong. If I had known it, I would have stopped him from forming pills, so that he could cultivate his mind and eliminate his murderous intent."

"It has nothing to do with you, everyone has their own fate."

Zhou Shu shook his head slightly, "If it weren't for hatred, how could his entry be so fast? Even if you forcibly stop him from forming a pill, it would be useless. He wouldn't change, and he would still reach this point sooner or later. Alas, it's just that his kind nature is not enough to bear so much murderous intent. Perhaps this is still a kind of relief."

"Maybe, I rarely see him happy."

Liu Yuer was speechless for a while and nodded, "Although I am his master, you can see more thoroughly than me."

"The root cause is still in Linyun Temple, haha."

A smile appeared on the corner of Zhou Shu's mouth, and the smile was very cold, which made Liu Yuer feel a little chilled.

Shenxing Iron Peak.

Li Aojian did not sit with his back, but was practicing sword with Xu Rong. The light and shadow came and went, while Xu Mu next to him looked very focused.

The two sword lights suddenly turned around at the same time and flew towards the passage up the mountain together.

Bang!

Another sword light flew out from the entrance of the passage, three sword lights collided in an interlaced manner, and they burst out like fireworks, instantly gorgeous, and then disappeared invisible.

"Do you guys take the exam to me?"

Zhou Shu walked slowly up the mountain with a slight smile.

Xu Rong and Li Aojian put away their swords and walked over quickly, "Why, are you done?"

"It's almost done, I'm going to go."

Zhou Shu nodded, looked at the two of them, and said slowly, "Senior Sister, Lao Li, you must also prepare. You can't stay here for long."

"Know."

Li Aojian nodded, "As long as there is a sword, it will be the same no matter where it is. It doesn't matter. By the way, Xiao Zhou, after this relocation, I will be ready to go out."

Zhou Shu was a little confused, "What are you doing? Are you planning to build a pill? I'm afraid I can't suppress my cultivation."

"Without a sword, what kind of pill will I make?" Li Aojian laughed and shook his head, "I need to find a sword that suits me to make pills."

"Sword, Dan?"

Zhou Shu was stunned and said, "Use sword as a pill? Lao Li, are you planning to take the path of ancient sword cultivator. Have you really thought about it?"

In ancient times, some sword cultivators built small worlds on swords and used this to condense elixir into their bodies. Some sword cultivators even directly integrated the sword into their bodies, using their bodies as the sword body, so that they could better understand the sword and sword intent and achieve the true unity of human and sword. However, these methods were not only extremely difficult, but also had extremely high requirements for sword cultivators. Even in ancient times, few sword cultivators could truly do it, and they have basically been lost to this point.

He didn't expect that Li Aojian had such a plan. This path was difficult to walk, and even he had never thought about it.

It was Li Aojian after all.

Li Aojian looked proud, "Yes, this is in line with my pursuit and achieve the ultimate of the sword."

He looked as if he was taken for granted, and it seemed that only by doing this could he be considered a sword cultivator. Zhou Shu really couldn't compare with this.

Zhou Shu, who was used to Li Aojian, smiled knowingly and asked, "What kind of sword is needed? Is there a direction? Is it okay?"

"You don't have to, haha."

Li Aojian curled his lips and smiled, "If you want to be truly suitable for me, you can only find it yourself. There is no direction, just follow the circumstances. If you really can't find it, you can just use the iron sword at that time, haha."

"Well, Lao Li, you must be fine. Even if you turn the ragged iron sword into a golden elixir, I have nothing to say, haha."

Zhou Shu patted Li Aojian on the shoulder, looked at Xu Rong on the side, and said in a gentle voice, "Senior sister, you should also prepare to form a pill. Why not wait until after relocation? There will be a better environment there, and perhaps the level of pills will be higher."

"Is it better than the Dragon Palace? I plan to be in the Dragon Palace."

Xu Rong was slightly surprised, and nodded again soon, and smiled, "Since my junior brother said that, I have to wait a moment. I hope to reach the fifth-grade golden elixir. The better the environment, the greater the hope."

"If you are senior sister, there must be no problem."

Zhou Shu smiled, took out a few things and handed them to Li Aojian and Xu Rong, "You can help with these with them."

"I won't refuse your stuff anyway. There are too many things, so I'll give it back in the future," Li Aojian took it with ease, "But I didn't use the Yuanshi last time, why did I give so much more this time? What's in this bottle?"

"Soul liquid, a good thing that can enhance the soul and consciousness. Don't waste it, absorb it slowly by dropping it at a time."

Zhou Shu was quite cautious and explained to the two, "It's hard to get, don't tell others, you can't even have a name. Senior sister, give it a small bottle of it to Xu Mu. It's enough that he has almost the same level of condensation, and no matter how much he has, he can't absorb it."

"Ah! That's such a good thing!"

Xu Rong exclaimed, quickly took the jade bottle with a lot of excitement on her face, "What I lack is the soul and spiritual consciousness. With these, I can really reach the fifth-grade golden elixir! Thank you, junior brother, every time I come back, I give people a lot of surprises, and I don't know how to be grateful."

Zhou Shu waved his hand, "Don't say those polite words, you are not like you, senior sister, and you have helped me a lot."

The grace of a drop of water is repaying each other with springs, and Zhou Shu is now a river, so it is not a big deal to give back some streams and springs.

Xu Rong sighed and stared at Zhou Shu for a while, "Oh, I said I was helping each other, but in fact you helped me a hundred times more than me... Being able to know you is a blessing in my life."

“Actually, it’s a blessing to know everyone.”

Zhou Shu smiled indifferently and bowed, "I'll leave first. See you next time, I'll be in the new Hokkien school, see you again."

The two of them returned the gift and watched Zhou Shu leave. Xu Rong's eyes were a little confused. What does the junior brother's words mean?

early morning.

Zhou Shu took Hao Ruoyan and left the Qingyuan Mountains and flew towards Lingyu City.
