Purification was the first step on the path of cultivation.

Only by crossing this threshold could one be considered to have truly stepped onto the path of cultivation. Whether or not one could successfully cleanse one's marrow was also the greatest difference between cultivators and ordinary mortals.

As for returning to the origin energy, it was the first realm of the nine great realms.

Returning qi meant absorbing the spirit energy of the world and transforming it into a spiritual energy!

The disciples of the Mang Shan Sect were separated into outer sect and internal portal. If the disciples of the outer sect wanted to transfer to the internal portal and learn the true Mang Shan Sect's swordsmanship, the most important test was whether or not they could successfully cleanse the marrow!

Ding Ning was very clear in his heart that Chen Su's aptitude could be considered outstanding among the outer sect's disciples, so it wasn't surprising for Chen Su to have successfully cleansed the marrow in the three years he had been in the Mang Shan Sect.

Chen Su smiled, towards the matter of him successfully Purification, he did not say much, and waved his hand towards Ding Ning, saying: "... Let's not talk about this anymore. Junior Brother Ding, are you injured? Is it really okay? "

"..." It's really nothing. If you don't believe me, you can look. " Ding Ning laughed as he untied his clothes, revealing his bare upper body.

Chen Su stared at Ding Ning's body. Looking carefully from the front and back, Ding Ning's back and abdomen, although still a little red and bruised, Chen Su could still tell that the injuries on his body were only superficial.

Indicating that Ding Ning should put on some clothes, Chen Su took out a rosewood box from his bosom and stuffed it into Ding Ning's hands. "This is the Purple Lotus Dew Paste. If you get injured again, rub it on your wounds. As long as it's not some incurable internal injury, the effect of this Purple Lotus Dew Paste will be pretty good!"

"..." Oh, really? Then I really need this thing ? "Then, thank you, Senior Brother Chen!" Ding Ning laughed, and did not push the pond away, but immediately kept it.

Chen Su looked around at the pitch black Qing Shui Pond, with a puzzled look, he asked: "... "Oh right, Junior Brother Ding, what are you doing here instead of sleeping in your room?"

Ding Ning scratched his head and walked to the rock behind him. He took out a machete and a few hemp ropes and said, "... Three months ago, I was in the firehouse cooking for everyone, and accidentally set the firehouse on fire. After Martial Uncle Lu found out about it, he punished me to come down the mountain every day to cut down ten buckets of firewood. "

"..." "Oh, so that's how it is." Chen Su nodded his head, and then shook it after a while: "... "But, if you want to chop firewood, you just have to come in the day. You don't have to come down the mountain at night, do you?"

Ding Ning explained: "... The mountain is over ten miles away from here. If I wait until daybreak before coming down, when I chop the firewood, I won't be able to finish the morning lessons ? "Senior Brother Chen, you should know that I am dull to begin with. If I were to continue cultivating, ?"

Chen Su sighed in his heart, then looked at Ding Ning and comforted him: "... "Junior Brother Ding, don't be discouraged. As long as you persevere in your hard training, I believe that in the future, you will definitely be able to successfully cleanse your marrow and step onto the path of cultivation!"

After saying that, Chen Su turned towards the little fatty Feng Ping at his side. After thinking for a while, he said, "? Feng Ping, we, as senior brothers, will help Junior Brother Ding. Today, let's chop all the wood for the following month for him.

Feng Ping looked at Ding Ning and said: "... "Yes, it's not a problem to help Junior Brother Ding chop firewood, but the two of us came down the mountain in the middle of the night without a machete, right?"

Chen Su waved his hand: "... It's just a machete, what's so difficult about that? I have a plan! "

With that, Chen Su took the firewood knife from Ding Ning's hand, and turned to walk towards the pine trees by the side of the pond. With one stroke of his blade, he cut off the pine tree branches, and quickly sliced up two simple wooden swords.

Walking back to Ding Ning's side, Chen Su returned the firewood knife to Ding Ning, then threw one of the wooden swords in his hand to Feng Ping, and laughed: "... Isn't that enough? "

Feng Ping took the wooden sword, and looked at Ding Ning with hesitation, and said to Chen Su: "... Is, is that okay? "

"..." Alright, alright. I know you are afraid of Junior Ding overthinking things, but Junior Ding will find out sooner or later about the matter of you successfully Purification. Chen Su glanced at Ding Ning and said.

Ding Ning was startled, and looked at Feng Ping with some astonishment: "... Is that true? Senior Feng, you've also succeeded in Purification. "

"..." "Yes, just three days ago, I succeeded in Purification." Feng Ping nodded, and said: "... Originally, I did not plan to hide it from you. However, I was afraid that you would think about it too much, so I did not tell you. "

Ding Ning laughed: "... Amongst the Mang Shan Sect disciples, I am the slowest to cultivate, so why would I think so much about it? On the other hand, Senior-apprentice Brother Feng's successful Purification was a joyous occasion. Congratulations Senior-apprentice Brother Feng, you've finally gotten your wish. "

After interacting with him for three years, Ding Ning knew that Chen Su was straightforward and loyal, and although Feng Ping was a bit cowardly and cowardly, but he had the most honest and honest personality!

After knowing that Chen Su and Feng Ping had successfully Purification, Ding Ning was truly happy for them from the bottom of his heart. As for the things that Feng Ping was worried about, he was afraid that Ding Ning would feel uncomfortable from thinking too much.

Would Ding Ning know it? Of course not.

Because on the road of cultivation, what he had to take was a completely different path than Chen Su and the others. This was also the biggest secret on Ding Ning's body!

Purification was a divide between ordinary mortals and cultivators.

However, this divide that was able to stop billions of people in the world was not difficult for Ding Ning.

As long as he wanted to, he could step over at any time.

Having been in the Mang Shan Sect for three years, Ding Ning had deliberately restrained himself. He didn't want to attract the attention of others before the time came!

On the side of the Qing Shui Pond, the three of them chatted for a while before the moonlight gradually dimmed and the sky gradually brightened.

Chen Su looked at the gradually rising light of dawn from the east side, stood up and patted Feng Ping's shoulders, and said: "... Junior Martial Brother Feng, let's start cutting wood for Junior Martial Brother Ding then. It's better to finish chopping wood early and go up the mountain earlier. "

"..." "Alright." Feng Ping nodded.

Ding Ning wanted to stand up with the firewood knife in his hand, but he was stopped by Feng Ping's shoulder. Feng Ping reached into his bosom and took out two steamed buns, stuffing them into Ding Ning's hands, he smiled and said: "... "Today's firewood can be chopped by Senior Brother Chen and I. Just sit down and rest properly."

With that, Feng Ping carried the wooden sword and together with Chen Su, they walked quickly towards a shrubbery south of the Qing Shui Pond.
