Dual Cultivation: A Carefree Journey Through Another World, the Empress Falls into My Hands

This changed Chu Yunfan's impression of Liu Suxin.

"Junior sister, you're too kind. It was my presumption that I came!"

To be honest, Chu Yunfan's appearance was indeed somewhat sudden and even a little frightening. After all, he was sent here directly by the power of the Fifth Elder, almost without a sound. No wonder it caused Liu Suxin's misunderstanding.

Upon seeing the two reconcile, the Grand Elder's face instantly broke into a smile.

Then he said to Chu Yunfan:

"The artistic conception is inherently formless and intangible, and difficult to grasp."

The essence of wind is even more elusive and indescribable.

Therefore, I cannot explain much to you; you will have to figure it out yourself!

As soon as he finished speaking, an invisible force was released from the Grand Elder and enveloped Chu Yunfan's body.

Suddenly, Chu Yunfan felt himself leave the bamboo house and arrive in a bamboo forest.

In the bamboo forest, a gentle breeze caressed his face, making him feel incredibly comfortable. Chu Yunfan couldn't help but close his eyes and enjoy it.

However, Chu Yunfan did not notice that a few bamboo leaves drifting in the wind suddenly brushed past his body.

Immediately afterwards, several bloody marks appeared on his body.

Only then did Chu Yunfan realize what was happening.

"Killing without a trace, nourishing without a sound—is this the wind?"

Chu Yunfan murmured to himself.

Just then, even more bamboo leaves flew towards Chu Yunfan.

Chu Yunfan tried to defend himself, but found that the bamboo leaves were swaying in the wind and were difficult to defend against.

In an instant, he had several more wounds on his body.

At this moment, Chu Yunfan's eyes suddenly lit up, and he released the wind essence he had comprehended.

However, Chu Yunfan did not intend to use his sword to block the bamboo leaves. Instead, he used the sword intent of wind to propel his body, making it as elusive as the wind, in order to dodge the flying bamboo leaves.

As expected, Chu Yunfan's move was effective, and he dodged the incoming bamboo leaves one by one.

However, at that moment, the number of bamboo leaves in the air increased again.

……

Meanwhile, inside the bamboo house, Chu Yunfan remained seated, motionless.

However, at this moment, a strange power suddenly appeared in his body.

When this power appeared, Liu Suxin, who was standing to the side, was so shocked that she couldn't help but cry out.

"How is it possible that he grasped the essence of wind so quickly?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Rufeng, who was standing to the side, explained:

"It can't be that fast. This is the essence of wind that he had already grasped."

Hearing Liu Rufeng's explanation, the look of surprise on Liu Suxin's face did not fade.

"That's too fast, isn't it? Under your guidance, Grandpa, it took me several years to even get a basic understanding."

He looked to be only a year older than me, and it was obvious that he had never been taught before, yet he had grasped the essence of wind all by himself.

After saying that, Liu Suxin suddenly looked at Liu Rufeng and said with a dejected expression:

"Grandpa, am I just too stupid?"

Upon hearing Liu Suxin's words, Liu Rufeng smiled, patted her head, and said:

"Silly girl, the concept of artistic conception is extremely difficult to comprehend. Many people cultivate for decades or even hundreds of years and reach the Martial Venerable realm, but they still can't grasp it."

You've grasped the essence of art in just a few years. While my guidance played a part, it still demonstrates exceptional comprehension, surpassing most geniuses.

So, don't doubt yourself!

Upon hearing Liu Rufeng's answer, the dejection on Liu Suxin's face disappeared.

Then, she pointed at Chu Yunfan and said:

"If I'm a genius, then what is he?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a look of emotion appeared on Liu Rufeng's face, and then he slowly said:

"Some people cannot be judged by common sense!"

……

Just as Liu Rufeng and Liu Suxin were talking.

Chu Yunfan, on the other hand, encountered an even greater crisis.

Suddenly a gust of wind came, followed by a shower of falling leaves, like a barrage of arrows, completely engulfing him.

Faced with such a scene, an ordinary person would have already felt despair.

But the Grand Elder just said that Chu Yunfan cannot be judged by common sense.

Thus, Chu Yunfan in the bamboo forest instantly transformed into an iron-winged eagle. He then spread his wings, unleashed the power of wind, and spun rapidly in place, creating a small tornado that shredded all the incoming bamboo leaves.

However, Chu Yunfan's actions seemed to have angered the bamboo forest.

Instantly, all the bamboo in the forest shook at the same time, and endless bamboo leaves appeared, rushing towards Chu Yunfan.

Even if he transformed into a tornado, he couldn't fight against so many bamboo leaves at the same time.

Suddenly, many more wounds appeared on his body.

Seeing this, Chu Yunfan had a sudden inspiration and abruptly stopped spinning.

Immediately afterwards, he spread his wings and flew into the air.

As soon as he took off, he couldn't help but feel a strange sensation in his heart.

Because he felt that he was flying faster than he had the speed he had achieved the previous night with the blessing of the wind.

"What's happening here?"

Chu Yunfan stared at his body with a puzzled expression.

Immediately afterwards, he noticed the countless bamboo leaves beneath him and the bamboo forest undulating like waves.

Then, he immediately thought of the wind beside him.

Then, he suddenly realized what was happening and muttered to himself:

"So that's how it is! I had always regarded this wind as an enemy and chose to fight against it."

Little did I know, it could also become an asset to me!

The roc spreads its wings and rides the wind, soaring ninety thousand miles into the sky.

The wind is, by nature, a companion of the Kunpeng.

Thinking of this, Chu Yunfan immediately relaxed his mind and body, no longer exerting force to resist the wind, but instead flying with the wind.

At the same time, he resonated with the wind around him through his own understanding of the essence of wind, becoming part of the wind and completely merging into it.

Time passed, I don't know how much.

Chu Yunfan felt as if he had transformed into the wind, soaring freely, and felt an unparalleled sense of joy.

He was only able to break free from this state when he suddenly felt a wave of dizziness.

Only then did he realize that he was still sitting in the bamboo house.

The Grand Elder remained seated opposite him, watching him with a smile.

Chu Yunfan was about to ask what had just happened when he felt dizzy and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, the Grand Elder released a burst of power and stabilized him in time.

"You spent half a month comprehending my Wind Realm, which greatly depleted your mental energy, hence this situation."

Seeing the questioning look in Chu Yunfan's eyes, the First Elder slowly explained.

Immediately afterwards, a cup of tea on the tea table suddenly flew up out of thin air and hovered in front of Chu Yunfan.

"Drink it!"

The elder's voice came again. Upon hearing this, Chu Yunfan subconsciously picked up his teacup and drank it all in one gulp.

As the tea entered his mouth, Chu Yunfan immediately felt a cool sensation rush to his mind, and he suddenly became much more awake and comfortable.

Immediately, Chu Yunfan's face showed surprise, his eyes fixed on the teacup in his hand.

At this moment, the Grand Elder spoke again:

"This tea is called Qingfeng Tea, a kind of spiritual tea. Drinking it can help people calm their minds and spirits and also restore their mental state."

"You try and see how many cups you can drink."

Upon hearing this, Chu Yunfan was overjoyed and immediately bowed to the Grand Elder to express his gratitude.

"Thank you for your generous gift, Elder!"

Immediately afterwards, Chu Yunfan eagerly poured himself some tea.

You should know that this is not ordinary tea, but spiritual tea.

So-called "spiritual tea" simply means tea brewed from tea leaves that have already grown into a spiritual medicine.

The effects of the Spirit Tea are also extremely powerful.

For example, the Qingfeng Tea in front of us can help people calm their minds and restore their spirits.

Normally, Chu Yunfan spent fifteen days comprehending the essence of the realm. He would need to sleep for at least a month to barely recover his mental energy, and he might even suffer from long-term effects due to the excessive mental energy expenditure.

Just like excessive exercise can lead to lumbar muscle strain.

However, with this Qingfeng Tea, these problems were immediately solved.

Of course, anything in excess is as bad as anything in moderation.

Although Qingfeng tea has a calming effect, drinking too much of it can turn it into a sleeping pill, causing people to fall asleep.

That's why the Grand Elder suggested letting Chu Yunfan see how many cups he could drink.

Actually, he wanted to see how strong Chu Yunfan's mind was.
