Chapter 172 Dressing
After Xu Yi and Tian Qi paid great tribute to Li Yu, they went back to adjust their state and prepare to achieve the golden elixir.
Li Yu watched them leaving, thoughtful.
Just now, he finally felt the power of faith from the two of them.
The power of faith at the peak of the late foundation-building stage is more than ten times stronger than that of a person in the Qi Refining stage.
When they succeed in forming the elixir, their faith will surely be qualitatively improved.
For most cultivators, the Nascent Soul is an unattainable dream. There is no need to even fantasize about it. The Golden Elixir is their ultimate pursuit, and even if they die at the age of 500, their life will not be in vain.
Li Yu has already fulfilled Xu Yi and Tian Qi's original dreams.
From just establishing their foundation to achieving dual spiritual veins and golden elixir, these few days in the Xuanyin Sect can help them avoid a hundred years of detours.
At the same time, they also gained their faith.
Although it takes a huge investment to gain faith in this way, it is a path of cultivation that goes against the will of heaven. There are generally no easy ways to quickly improve your cultivation.
Nangong Chan crossed her arms, stood behind Li Yu, and said calmly: "You are quite good at winning people's hearts."
Li Yu said: "I just like making friends."
This time, Nangong Chan didn't say anything. At least... these two disciples of the Demonic Path were both men, and she was already very relieved that he didn't hook up with two Demonic Path women.
There is progress, which deserves praise.
But she still looked at Li Yu and asked, "Aren't you afraid that they are only flattering you on the surface, but in their hearts they think you are a fool who gave them so many pills ..."
Li Yu is not worried about this.
Words and expressions can deceive people, but faith cannot.
If their words do not come from the heart, they will not generate the power of faith at all.
After feeling the power of faith in Xu Yi and Tian Qi, Li Yu also gained some inspiration.
Although faith practice is a shortcut, as the level of cultivation improves, the requirements for the source of the power of faith become higher and higher.
When he was in the foundation-building stage, the faith of a large number of Qi-refining disciples gathered together and was even able to allow him to form a pill ahead of time.
But after the Dan is formed, the faith of the disciples in the Qi Refining Stage has much less effect.
Based on this calculation, when Li Yu enters the Nascent Soul stage, he will probably need the power of faith from the Golden Core stage to help his practice.
But it is extremely difficult to make people in the Jindan stage have faith. The mentality of those who have lived for hundreds of years is . Li Yu has already verified this in Kunlun.
A little favor will not gain their faith at all.
But if he provided Tuomai Pills and Jinling Pills to those old people who were in the foundation-building stage and were about to die, so that they could form pills before returning to the abyss and extend their lifespan by more than two hundred years, it might be helpful.
Li Yu still remembers what happened to Elder Sun clearly.
Those who are nearing the end of their lifespan will do anything to form an elixir.
However, this was just his initial idea. This matter was not as simple as giving away pills and collecting faith. First of all, this matter required the consent of the sect. Secondly, he had to find a way to ensure that they could be used for his own benefit.
After all, he was not doing charity. If they ran away after breaking through, wouldn't his pills be wasted?
Currently, Li Yu's practice is progressing rapidly, so there is no rush for this matter. He will make long-term plans after he finishes the affairs of the Xuanyin Sect.
…
Li Yu did not make any elixirs today. Tomorrow is the day when the Demonic Ceremony will begin. Almost all the Demonic sects have arrived, and he plans to go and watch the excitement.
Although he cannot participate in this ceremony, if nothing unexpected happens, the five Nine-Transformation Demon Pills will eventually fall into the hands of the demon girl, which is the same as falling into his hands. As long as they are not snatched away by outsiders, he will not lose anything.
In Lingchan Hall, in front of the dressing table, Li Yu was braiding Qing'er's hair.
This little girl's strength is also at the Five Spirit Veins Golden Elixir level.
Qing'er was the one who used all the pills that Li Yu gave to the demon girl. Li Yu would occasionally give her some. The little girl's strength had increased dramatically in the past two months, and she had a place among the top geniuses of the Xuanyin Sect.
Of course, this is only temporary. Her talent is still far inferior to those real geniuses. As she practices for a longer time, she will gradually be left behind by them.
Li Yu combed her hair into a simple double bun, which suited her slightly chubby face very well.
Nangong Chan stood by and watched. Over the past few days, she had witnessed with her own eyes how Li Yu's skills improved little by little. Of course, she also had her own little thoughts about letting Li Yu learn makeup and styling from the disciple of the Hehuan Sect.
The reason why I asked him to learn these things is not to comb Qing'er's hair.
Qing'er ran out to show off her new hairstyle, while Nangong Chan sat in front of the dressing table , fixing her hair in front of the mirror.
She let her hair down and tried to put it into a bun in other styles, but she was obviously not good at it and she couldn't do it in a long time. She threw the hairpin on the table in embarrassment, glanced at Li Yu, and coughed lightly.
Li Yu was waiting for her to speak up, but if she continued like this, she might get angry, so he had no choice but to step forward and ask, "Do you want me to help you?"
Nangong Chan didn't say anything, but leaned obediently on the chair.
Li Yu first used a comb to comb her hair smooth, and after choosing a bun that suited her, his hands began to work on her head.
Nangong Chan looked through the mirror in front of her and watched Li Yu's hands fiddling with her head.
This was the first time someone had combed her hair .
When she was a child, the girls of the same age around her all had beautiful fairy clothes to wear, were dressed up beautifully by their parents every day, and had all kinds of pretty braids, but no one did these for her.
She didn't know how to braid her hair, so she had to tie it up casually with a rope, and was often laughed at by girls of the same age for this.
At that time, she envied the little girls of the same age. She envied them for having parents who could braid their hair and put beautiful flowers on their foreheads.
Later, her talent for cultivation was revealed and she was accepted as a disciple by the headmaster. She became a saint in the sect and had many maids serving her. Finally, there was someone who could dress her up, but she didn't need it as much as she did when she was a child.
But in her heart, there was always an obsession.
Li Yu styled the witch's hair into a "Yaotai bun". He had never seen this kind of bun before. It seemed that it was invented by Tian Qi himself.
This kind of hairstyle is suitable for young girls, but not too childish. It is between a loli and a mature woman. After her hair is tied up, the witch in the mirror immediately undergoes a drastic change.
After changing her hairstyle, she lost that heroic and cool look, and gained a bit of the gentleness of a lady from a noble family.
Li Yu couldn't help but think that if she had not been born in the Xuanyin Sect, but grew up in Kunlun, she might be like now.
The demon girl was naturally beautiful, and because of her practice, she was almost perfect without any flaws. She didn't need any rouge or powder. Li Yu just lightly drew her eyebrows and applied lipstick on her, and that was all he needed for her makeup.
Qing'er ran in from outside and looked at Nangong Chan in front of the dressing table. She stood there for a while and murmured, "Saint, you are so beautiful after putting on your makeup..."
Nangong Chan rolled her eyes at her and asked, "Will I not be beautiful if I don't put on makeup?"
Qing'er could only say: "The Saint is beautiful even without makeup, but she is a little more beautiful with makeup than without..."
Nangong Chan turned to look at Li Yu and asked, "Do you think so too?"
Li Yu looked at her carefully for a while and said, "I think both of them are beautiful. You are naturally beautiful. Before you put on makeup, you are like a lotus flower emerging from the water, fresh and elegant. After you put on makeup, you are like a blooming rose, floating green and flowing red... With or without makeup, you are both beautiful in your own way."
Although Nangong Chan didn't say anything, the corner of her mouth curled up in an imperceptible arc.
Qing'er looked at Li Yu with admiration. The Young Master of Kunlun was indeed the Young Master of Kunlun. She couldn't say such cheesy words...
