Li Shiyin returned to Dan Peak, and Qin Ran also returned to Dan Peak, so Dan Peak, which had been deserted for over ten days, resumed its ordinary daily state.
After returning to Dan Peak, Qin Ran became very busy, or it could be said that he was living a very fulfilling life. He would either cultivate, concoct pills, comprehend formations, read books, go fishing, play the flute, teach disciples, and so on. It was a life of leisure and fulfillment as a cultivator.
Life is not always spectacular, and ordinary daily life is the main melody. Especially for cultivators' lives of cultivation, because of their longer lifespan, compared to ordinary people's daily lives, it is even more monotonous.
For ordinary cultivators, cultivation and closed-door training occupy the vast majority of their long lives.
Dan Peak has the soul of a modern person, which is much better than that of ordinary cultivators.
Days went by steadily, and spring quickly passed and the weather warmed up completely.
Li Shiyin had initially mastered the Heart Divine Eye, plus her learning and mastery of human meridians, acupoints, paths of spiritual power operation, she could already see through most people's weaknesses at a glance.
And at this time, she discovered an extremely terrifying thing, that is, when she looked at her master with her heart divine eye, she found that the master had no weaknesses... The master was stronger than she imagined.
She also picked up another sword move from the Nine Revolutions Star Sword Technique, "Pluck the Stars Sword".
Pluck the Stars Sword is a means of long-range attack. The specific move is that the practitioner can condense starlight into a sword at a distance, and then attract the starlight sword back to himself, in order to kill the enemy.
Because Li Shiyin had comprehended sword qi, when condensing the starlight sword at a distance, she could directly replace it with star sword qi, so her Pluck the Stars Sword had a much faster condensing speed and much greater power than the ordinary Pluck the Stars Sword.
And with her own sword dao talent, she also learned the Pluck the Stars Sword very quickly, and soon she was able to condense three strands of star sword qi at a distance.
Spring arrived, the temperature warmed up, and Long Qiqi, the poisonous snake, finally revived and was no longer the lazy snake she was in winter.
She studied the "Dan Fire" material given to her by Qin Ran again and again, and found some related books by herself. After spending more than a month preparing... With a strong scent of Qin Ran, she was completely Qin Ran's direct disciple.
On this day, she went to find Li Shiyin and asked Li Shiyin to take her to find Dan Fire. And Li Shiyin was bored from practicing in Dan Peak every day, and had long wanted to sneak out and make trouble. So the two hit it off instantly, packed up on the spot and went down the mountain the same day.
Poor Chasing the Wind, who had happily sparred with Li Shiyin that morning when he went out, couldn't find Li Shiyin anywhere when he came back at noon.
"Dad, where's Shiyin?" He ran to the lakeside to ask Qin Ran.
"She went down the mountain." Qin Ran was reading a book under the willow tree by the lake and answered casually.
The Demon Devouring Extreme Willow by the lake that was struck by lightning had been completely reborn. Inside, the infant Demon Devouring Extreme Willow had been successfully brainwashed by Qin Ran and turned into his demon pet; on the outside, the charred Demon Devouring Extreme Willow was blown by the spring breeze and had sprouted several tender yellow willow branches.
"What did she go down the mountain for?" Chasing the Wind asked further.
"Qiqi is going to look for Dan Fire."
"How long will it take to find Dan Fire?"
"Hard to say, maybe she'll be back in three or two days; or maybe she won't be back for months."
"Wow! They are bad guys!" Chasing the Wind howled in pain, "Leaving me alone and going out to play by themselves."
"What are you howling about? Quiet down!" Qin Ran slapped his wide open mouth.
Chasing the Wind had no choice but to lie down dejectedly by the lake.
Next to the Demon Devouring Extreme Willow, in order to slightly disguise the Demon Devouring Extreme Willow, Qin Ran had planted many ordinary willow trees. Planted in winter, they were still small trees now, but had sprouted.
Lying down, Chasing the Wind could lift his big head slightly to play with the fresh willow branches.
A white tiger playing with willow branches by the White Tiger Lake was also a very interesting scene.
The book Qin Ran was reading today was about medicinal herbs and ingredients. Recently he had gained some insight into pills for longevity, and had been looking for herbs in the past two days to prepare a pill formula to try refining.
After flipping through for a while, he finally found the last two medicines, "Hundred Year Lingzhi" and "Thousand Leaf Sweet Dew". After carefully pondering in his heart, he felt he was on the right track, so he closed the book, stood up and prepared to try it out in the research building.
When he looked aside, Chasing the Wind was nowhere to be seen. He didn't know when the silly kid had slipped away.
But Qin Ran was not worried about this. After all, this was a tiger cub. Up until now, he still hadn't torn the house down completely. Qin Ran felt that his education work had been done quite well.
Why demand so much more? Was he supposed to expect a tiger to read books quietly every day?
After stretching, Qin Ran walked along the lake bank to the river bank. Just as he had walked a few steps along the river bank, he saw Chasing the Wind's big head emerge from the storage room in the distance, the big wooden frame in his mouth, the big wooden frame he used to drag around noisily when he was little.
Qin Ran couldn't figure out what the silly kid was up to.
Over there, Chasing the Wind swayed as he strode arrogantly with the big wooden frame in his mouth. He went to the cat tree, circled around the cat tree, then estimated the height of the cat tree, and then with a flick of his head, easily jumped onto the six or seven-meter-high cat tree holding the wooden frame.
The silly kid looked at the big wooden frame, his eyes full of delight. He was just about to try out the big wooden frame when he suddenly noticed Qin Ran watching him from the river bank. He immediately understood that his dad must also want to play with such a fun wooden frame, so very filially he asked, "Dad, do you want to play?"
Qin Ran took a look at the wooden frame and firmly refused.
Chasing the Wind was a little disappointed. Such a good thing, yet Dad didn't want to play with him. So with a leap, he nimbly jumped into the wooden frame.
The wooden frame was what he used when he was little. For him back then it was very big; but for him now, it was a little "tiny bit" small.
Especially his idea of trying to fit himself into it.
Poor little wooden frame, bearing something it shouldn't have at its age.
Chasing the Wind now weighed over a thousand pounds. Even if felines were made of water, trying to fit into that wooden frame was still asking too much of it.
Qin Ran watched by the river bank as he saw Chasing the Wind's white flesh squeezing out of the cracks in the wooden frame. The wooden frame creaked on the cat tree in the wind like a candle in the wind. He mourned for the wooden frame in his heart.
Seeing Chasing the Wind sleeping cozily in the wooden frame, Qin Ran secretly shook his head. No matter how big the cat, it was still a cat. Cats had a mysterious fondness for cardboard boxes and wooden crates.
He ignored Chasing the Wind and went straight to the research building.
When Qin Ran was concocting medicine on the second floor of the research building, he suddenly heard a "bang" outside, followed by the sound of Chasing the Wind crashing to the ground with a "boom", then Chasing the Wind's sad wail.
"It... lasted about ten minutes." Qin Ran shook his head, picturing in his mind Chasing the Wind's pitiful look around the wooden frame debris on the verge of crying. He strangely wanted to laugh. "Happiness is gone, just like that."
