Chapter 404 (2/2)

Cixin did not even give it a glance and strode past that stone sign They continued ahead, Ning Tao following her The an to descend After another half a kilometer, the mountain path came to an end In front of them was a precipice

Cixin stood by the edge of the precipice A sea of clouds and mists was before her

Ning Tao stretched out his neck and looked, but other than swirling clouds and

Cixin said, “Our Emei Sect is just below Mount Eave it away Master says that as nuns, we should not follow the crowd and make etables we grow ourselves We even weave the clothes ear”

Ning Tao praised her Master “Reverend Miexin is indeed a noble nun of great integrity, unlike the abbot of some monastery If anyone wanted to earn money, they wouldn't have joined the cloister, would they? Wealth and valuables are things of this world, but ive them up”

Cixin eyed Ning Tao, unable to conceal the joy in her eyes “Doctor Ning, I like listening to you I'm sure my master will like your words too”

Ning Tao smiled “Then let's keep in touch and converse often”

Cixin's cheeks for so and hastily bent down, reaching out to grab a rope at the edge of the precipice

It was not a steel rope or a he oil, but a rope woven fro on it and it looked alive

“Doctor Ning, we have to slide down Can you?” Cixin looked at Ning Tao, her eyes someorried

Ning Tao said, “No probleo first and I will follow you”

Cixin nodded and then suddenly leaped forward In the twinkling of an eye, she had vanished into the clouds and mists

Ning Tao stepped forward and grabbed the vine rope Suddenly, in hisonce read about a spiritualVine in the Compendium of Spiritual Materials It was corade elixirs It had theone's row to a spectacular height, reaching into the heavens But it was just a ru pills idely recognized in the practitioners' world

Ning Tao did not leap forward like Cixin, Instead, he wound the Heaven-reaching Vine around his legs and then grabbed it with both hands He released his hands and then gripped the rope again, sliding down at a measured speed

He slid two to three thousand meters down The lower he slid, the thicker the rope Later, it beca Tao could actually run Just before reaching the botto Tao finally saw this place

It was a miniature basin surrounded by mountains, with a nunnery in the olden sunlight of daept across the sky, as clouds and ered in the basin This place really seemed like a secluded paradise, a fairyland on earth

Ning Tao could sense the presence of spiritual energy, but it was sparse But it was already quite difficult to achieve this degree of spiritual energy One must know that very few places on earth actually had spiritual energy Independent practitioners, or practitioners and demons from minor sects, could never cultivate in places like this

Cixin was already waiting by the Heaven-reaching Vine Behind her were a few nuns, one holding a hossu She seee from the Emei Sect

Ning Tao slid down fro's action “Amitabha Good day to you, Reverends”

The few young nuns started to titter

Thenuns They immediately shut their mouths and stopped their titters

Cixin introduced her “Doctor Ning, this is my Senior Sister Her Buddhist name is Ci'en”

Ning Tao put his palether “Good day to you, Reverend Ci'en”

Ci'en chanted Buddha's na”

Cixin next introduced the young nuns to Ning Tao, and Ning Tao likewise greeted the the syllable “Ci” belonged to just one generation after Reverend Miexin's He deduced that Cixin must be Reverend Miexin's last disciple, just like those described in Xianxia novels

Ci'en said, “Doctor Ning, you are our guest here, but I need to re photos here is prohibited When you leave this place, please keep its location a secret This is a place for Buddhist meditation and cultivation We don't wish to be disturbed by the outside world”

Ning Tao nodded “I won't even breathe a word Please rest assured”

“Alright Please let ” Ci'en extended her hand to Ning Tao

Ning Tao smiled, took out his cell phone, and handed it to Ci'en

Ci'en turned off Ning Tao's cell phone and put it away She said, “Doctor Ning, please come with me”

Ning Tao followed this group of nuns

A muddy path led to the te in the fields by the pathway, sowing, weeding and picking vegetables There were also nuns practicing in the forest, so exercises cross-legged on trees Still others were practicing lightness skills in the woods The nuns here had ed with the heavens and the earth They for touches
