Near the Bluestone Mountains, Lin Qi followed the marks left two years ago and found a hidden passage from an abandoned monster cave.

The Bluestone Mountains used to be a huge mineral vein. Due to long-term logging, the mineral resources were depleted. The forces that originally controlled the area have abandoned this mineral vein. However, the waste mines left behind in the mine are enough to support a large number of casual cultivators.

Over the past hundreds of years, these casual cultivators have dug a large number of mines in the Bluestone Mountains. The interiors are criss-crossed, and even the golden elixir monks' spiritual thoughts cannot detect them clearly.

This passage is Lin Qi's escape passage connecting his cave. He used this passage to leave the Bluestone Mountains.

"Where are you taking us?"

Mrs. Zhao looked at the gloomy cave with a hint of wariness in her eyes. The Zhao family also has a mine in Qingshi Mountain, so she naturally knows the situation in the mine.

"I left the Qingshi Mountains two and a half years ago. I did not disclose the news of my departure to others. Instead, I informed the people nearby that I would be in seclusion for three years. So if I go back here, I can resume my status as a permanent resident in the Qingshi Mountains."

Lin Qi didn't think too much about it at first. He just felt a little embarrassed to sell himself to a monk family, so he used three years of seclusion as an excuse to escape. Unexpectedly, it would come in handy now.

When the Wang family monks conduct an interrogation, they will be able to prove that they have been in seclusion in the cave for two and a half years.

"Mom, we have to believe in Lin Chongfeng."

Zhao Lingyun realized that her mother was still suspicious of Lin Qi, so she actually stood up and spoke for Lin Qi. When the two looked at her at the same time, she saw a panicked look on her face and she quickly lowered her head.

Such a change made Lin Qi feel happy and secretly sighed that Taoist couple could be successful.

Mrs. Zhao's expression was ugly. Her original plan was to use the temptation of her daughter's identity to ask Lin Qi to work for her. After his cultivation recovered, she would just give him some spirit stone pills.

If she continues to be stubborn, she won't mind dying without any evidence, but the changes in her daughter now are something she didn't expect.

The three of them walked through the dark mine, and a bright light stone illuminated the road ahead. After walking for an unknown amount of time, Mrs. Zhao gradually felt that her energy and blood were not flowing smoothly, and her face became paler.

But inside the mine, neither of them noticed the change in her expression. She could only grit her teeth and silently stuffed herself with one of the few remaining pills.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Lin Qi led the two of them through countless forked roads and opened several hidden passages before stopping in front of a stone wall.

Lin Qi watched carefully on the stone wall for a moment, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

Along the way, he deliberately avoided the main mining passages and came under his cave.

The mechanism I set up at the beginning was not touched, which means that no one noticed the entrance to the cave.

Lin Qi carefully turned on the mechanism. When he heard the sound of bluestone rubbing, a crack slowly appeared in front of the three of them.

"Let's go, welcome home."

For this extremely familiar cave, Lin Qixuan's heart slowly relaxed, and he brought the two of them into the cave, while he checked several secret rooms.

The restriction at the entrance of the cave still exists, but the spirit stones on the formation plate that controls the restriction have become dim. I am afraid that they will be scrapped if they cannot last long. Fortunately, they have not been touched.

"My cave is a bit small. There is only one secret room and one utility room in it. I will let you live in the secret room. I will open up another one in a few days."

Lin Qi was not in a hurry to open the cave. The top priority at this time was to get the two of them settled, and then he had time to study the Taoist companion panel that had not yet worked.

Only when a Taoist companion practices, he can gain something, so Zhao Lingyun must be allowed to enter a state of practice.

"Then I'll bother Lin Chong."

After Mrs. Zhao finished speaking, her body was shaky. If it were not for the support of Zhao Lingyun, she would have fallen to the ground. So the two people quickly helped her to the secret room and placed her on the bed. After a while, she fell into a coma.

Past.

"Lin Zongfeng, will something happen to my mother?"

Zhao Lingyun only knew that her mother was seriously injured, but she did not know how serious the injury was. Her sudden coma made her panic again.

"It looks like the situation is serious. Let her rest for a while."

Lin Qi had nothing to do about the cultivator's injuries. He could only relieve them by taking pills and slowly recuperating on his own. Both of them were at the third level of Qi training and could not help the monks at the seventh level.

"By the way, Lingyun, although we are safe now, we must seize the time to practice and improve our cultivation quickly. If we encounter danger in the future, we will be more confident. You should practice now."

As he spoke, Lin Qi opened the panel of the Taoist companion, his eyes moving back and forth between the two.

"Ah? Practicing now? But I'm not in the mood."

Zhao Lingyun had a look of astonishment on her face. How could she have any thoughts at this time? Her family was destroyed, and her mother's life and death were uncertain. This girl, who had never experienced setbacks, completely lost her mind.

"Because of this, you have to work harder to practice. Don't you want to take revenge? The Wang family has killed so many people in your family. That's a lot of lives. Thinking about your father, the Zhao family leader may have died a tragic death."

After hearing these words, the girl's expression became more and more sad. Originally her eyes were dim with tears, but now she could no longer control her tears, and she broke down and cried.

"I don't know how long it will take for your mother's injury to recover. Even if she recovers, her cultivation will be damaged. Now we can only rely on you. Only if your cultivation improves, can we live well. You must not

Give up!"

Lin Qi saw the little girl crying so hard that after weighing it, he stepped up his offensive again.

Rather than comforting her, it is better to stimulate her fighting spirit. Weak women can only become a burden, and only women who can work hard can bring benefits to Lin Qi.

"Lin Zongfeng and Lingyun know about it, Lingyun will start practicing now!"

Zhao Lingyun wiped away the tears on her face with all her strength, moved to the bedside with a trembling body, huddled in the corner and sat down.

She pondered for a long time before slowly calming down her emotions and forcing herself to enter a state of cultivation.

Lin Qi slowly retreated to the door, trying not to disturb Zhao Lingyun, and at the same time watched the changes on the Taoist companion's panel intently.

[Taoist Companion Bonus 1 is activated: Cultivation is being doubled...!]

Suddenly, the spiritual power in the body started to move automatically, and the realm that had been dormant for a long time was actually loosened!

Feeling this change, Lin Qi was extremely pleasantly surprised. He quickly came to the utility room next door, sat on the floor, and used all his spiritual power in his body!

Perhaps the spiritual power that Zhao Lingyun fed back to him was only a weak trace, but it was precisely this trace that became the final force for the collapse of the dam. The bottleneck of the third level of Qi training was completely broken, and the spiritual power in his body was as full as the water of a river.
