When they heard that the secret method that Song Qingming passed on to them was actually helpful in forming elixirs, Song Changze and the other two showed a bit of surprise on their faces.
A few of them can practice to the late stage of foundation building. Naturally, they have heard of various methods in the world of immortality to increase the success rate of forming pills.
In addition to the five elements spiritual objects and auxiliary elixirs such as "Jade Dust Pill", the most helpful thing for monks to reach the realm of golden elixir is the various secret methods of auxiliary elixir formation that are not spread by major sects.
The Song family has only become the Jindan family for more than a hundred years. In addition, Song Qingming and the others have never revealed the "Return to Yuan Technique" in front of others. Although they are the foundation-building elders of the Song family, they have never I thought that my family also had a secret method to assist in forming pills.
After all, the holders of this secret method of forming elixirs are generally Nascent Soul sects such as "Xiaoyao Sect" or other Jindan forces with profound foundations. The Song family has just advanced to the level of the Jindan Immortal Clan. It is very rare to have the power of cultivating immortals for more than a hundred years.
Over the years, several ancestors of the Song family have succeeded in using pills one after another. Outsiders have commented that the Song family's luck is really too good. Most of Song Changze and others actually think so.
It was not until they saw Song Qingming take out the secret method of "Returning to the Origin" that Song Changze and the others realized that forming pills was far from something that could only be achieved by luck, and the Song family's family background was not what they thought. So simple.
After receiving the "Return to Origin Technique" from Song Qingming, Song Changze and the other three were very excited.
Especially Liu Yuxin, who married into the Song family, now saw that Song Qingming and the others did not regard her as an outsider, and passed on the family's crucial secret method of forming pills to her, and also had the idea of supporting her own pill formation, and her heart became more I was so moved that a few tears overflowed from the corners of my eyes unconsciously.
Seeing Liu Yuxin so excited, Song Qingyu immediately spoke to comfort him: "Yuxin, if you marry into our Song family, you are one of our own, you don't have to worry about these things,
But you must remember what Seventh Brother just said. This secret method is related to the foundation of the family, and it is also the foundation for the future establishment of our Song family. Information about the secret method must not be spread or leaked.
Even if you meet your master in the future, you cannot tell Sister He about this. You should be able to do this! "
"Ancestor, please rest assured that Yu Xin knows the seriousness of this matter and will never leak family secrets. "Hearing Song Qingyu's instructions, Liu Yuxin nodded quickly.
Then she, Song Changze and Song Yuanhao made an oath in front of the three family ancestors in front of them, never to reveal it to outsiders. About the secret method of "Guiyuan Technique" This information made Song Qingming and others feel relieved.
"You three all have hope of forming pills in the future, but forming pills is not that easy, even with the help of this secret method. It can only increase the probability of success.
Whether you can get to that point depends on your personal opportunities in the future, and it is not something we can force.
But don’t worry, as long as the three of us are here, the family will definitely be able to support you when you form the elixir in the future. Even if it is not as good as those core disciples of the big sects, it is still much better than others outside.
I have marked all the things you need to pay attention to when practicing this secret method. You must practice diligently in the future and never slack off. If you have any questions, you can come to the top of the mountain to ask us at any time. "
"Thank you, ancestor! "
After hearing Song Qingming's instructions, the three of them nodded quickly to express their gratitude, and then left the "Huixian Pavilion" happily with the waves of several ancestors.
After leaving the top of the mountain, Song Yuanhao was not in a hurry to return to his cave. Instead, he came to the back mountain cemetery and visited his parents and ninth uncle Song Xintang who were buried here.
Chen Yanyun, Song Yuanhao's mother, has taken great care of her mother and son since she brought her son back to "Funiu Mountain". They have lived a comfortable life in the mountains these years.
It was not until twenty years ago that Chen Yanyun, who was already over 120 years old, reached the end of his lifespan and died peacefully in his home.
As Song Xinhe's wife, Chen Yanyun was able to raise his son and saw Song Yuanhao succeed in building the foundation. This life can be regarded as fulfilling the promise to her husband.
The only regret I have is that I didn't get to see Song Yuanhao get married and start a family.
When Song Yuanhao had just successfully established the foundation, Chen Yanyun took the initiative to find Song Qingming and others, hoping that they would help introduce Song Yuanhao to a Taoist couple to start a family as soon as possible.
It’s just that Song Yuanhao has never had any ideas in this regard. He focused on cultivation. Over the years, he has been putting off this matter again and again, and he has always been alone.
Standing in front of his mother's tombstone at this moment, thinking of his mother Chen Yanyun's instructions to him back then, Song Yuanhao could only sigh slightly, wondering when he would be able to complete what he promised her back then.
While Song Yuanhao was sitting in front of the tombstone, paying homage to his parents, a woman in her twenties who was born in the "Lin" generation of the Song family hurried over to him.
"Uncle Yuan Hao, my eighth uncle just sent a message saying that someone is looking for you at the foot of the mountain!"
"Who is looking for me and where?" When Song Yuanhao heard that someone was looking for him, a hint of surprise suddenly appeared on his face, and he asked with some confusion.
Song Yuanhao has always been relatively withdrawn in the clan. After establishing the foundation, he has focused exclusively on cultivation in the past few years and rarely makes friends outside. Even those who are familiar with him in "Qinghe County" can be considered good friends. Not many people either.
Hearing Song Yuanhao's inquiry, the visitor shook his head and said, "I don't know my eighth uncle either. I only said that the visitor's surname is Xu. He is your friend and he seems to have come here specially to visit my uncle."
“Xu, my friend?”
Hearing the other party's explanation, Song Yuanhao's face became a little more confused. After lowering his head and thinking for a while, he nodded to the visitor and said: "Okay, I understand, you Go ahead and get busy. I’ll go down and take a look later.”
After throwing the remaining paper money in his hand into the fire, Song Yuanhao bowed and worshiped in front of his mother's tombstone again, then turned and left the family cemetery on the back hill and walked down the mountain.
A moment later, Song Yuanhao's figure appeared at the foot of the mountain. Seeing the sudden appearance of the family ancestor, several Song family monks guarding the mountain gate hurriedly stepped forward and bowed.
"Greetings to the elder!"
Song Yuanhao nodded slightly, glanced around and then directly asked a few people: "Isn't it said that someone is looking for me, why are you the only ones here?"
"Reporting to the elder, a man did come here just now and said he was looking for you. After we sent the message to the mountain, he went over there and said he would wait for you there."
A monk in the late stage of Qi training from the Song family who answered the question pointed directly at a small hill not far from the mountain gate.
Song Yuanhao nodded when he heard this, and without saying anything else, he walked directly towards the mountain. After a while, he came to a bluestone on the hillside, where he saw a man wearing a bamboo hat. A man dressed in white.
"Are you looking for me?"
Hearing Song Yuanhao's inquiry, the man in white took off the bamboo hat on his head, revealing the delicate face of a young woman, and faced Song Yuanhao directly He opened his mouth and said with a smile:
"It's only been ten years since we last met. Doesn't Fellow Daoist Song already forget me?"
"It's you, why did you come to Weiguo?" Seeing the woman in white in front of him, Song Yuanhao suddenly showed a hint of surprise, but he quickly recovered and a smile appeared on his face.
When Song Yuanhao left his family to go out for training more than ten years ago, he happened to encounter a difficult opponent while competing for spiritual objects in a secret realm in the Song Kingdom.
Although Song Yuanhao managed to get rid of his opponent later by relying on a second-grade high-grade spiritual talisman in his hand, he was already seriously injured at that time and could no longer use his magic power to fight against the enemy. He could only find hidden places to avoid healing.
At this time, Song Yuanhao met a foundation-building casual cultivator who also entered the secret realm to search for spiritual objects.
Although the two did not know each other, this person did not choose to take advantage of Song Yuanhao, who was seriously injured at the time. Instead, he gave the other party several healing pills to help Song Yuanhao survive the crisis.
Later, after they came out of the secret realm, the two became good friends and often drank tea and discussed Taoism together.
The woman in white who came to visit Song Yuanhao was the casual cultivator who helped Song Yuanhao in the secret realm. This is why Song Yuanhao was so surprised when he saw her.
In order to thank the other party for helping him, Song Yuanhao told the other party his identity and also knew that the woman in white was named Xu.
It’s just that the Song Kingdom is located in the east of the Fuyun Mountains, tens of thousands of miles away from the Wei Kingdom in the west. Monks from both sides rarely have contact with each other. After Song Yuanhao returned to his family, he never heard of the woman in white again for ten years. news.
He heard on the mountain that his friend’s surname was Xu. Song Yuanhao immediately thought of the benevolent woman in white. However, he was not sure until he saw the woman in white. Only then did a trace of joy appear on his face.
Seeing that Song Yuanhao recognized her at a glance, the woman in white was very happy. She stepped forward and bowed to him with a smile and a smile.
“I haven’t seen you for many years. I didn’t expect that Fellow Daoist Song not only recovered from his injuries, but also improved greatly in his cultivation. He has already broken through to the late stage of foundation building. This is really a gratifying thing.”
"You're welcome, fellow Taoist Xu. I just heard someone visiting me on the mountain. I I never expected that a Taoist friend would come to visit me. I hope you can forgive me for my slightness.”
When the two met, they were already good friends, and now they meet again. I was very happy and talked about some of Liang Mian's experiences in Song Dynasty.
After chatting with each other for a while, Song Yuanhao raised his hand and invited the woman in white:
"We haven't seen each other for many years. It's rare that fellow Taoist Xu came to Funiu Mountain to see me today. I also asked fellow Taoist to come up to the mountain with me to taste a few cups of spiritual tea, so that I can entertain you."
The woman in white heard this but did not respond. in a hurry He agreed to the other party, but he cupped his hands to Song Yuanhao with a somewhat hesitant look on his face and said: "When my Taoist friend left, he promised that he owed me a favor. I wonder if Taoist friend Song can still keep his words?"
Hearing the woman in white Mentioning the promise he had left, Song Yuanhao was stunned for a moment, and then immediately nodded and replied: "What I said will naturally count.
What do you want me to do for you, fellow Taoist Xu, just tell me, As long as I have the ability to do it, I will never refuse to you!" After hearing Song Yuanhao's answer, the woman in white slowly breathed a sigh of relief, then took out a black wooden box from her body and handed it to Song Yuanhao's hand.
"Fellow Daoist Song, here is a third-level low-grade spiritual talisman that my master left for me. I want to exchange this talisman with you for a third-level healing elixir. I hope fellow Taoist can help me today!"
< br>"Level 3 healing elixir? Me Fellow Taoist Xu doesn’t look like he’s injured, so why do you need such a high-level healing elixir?”
After hearing what the woman in white asked for, Song Yuanhao looked around her carefully and felt a little puzzled. Asked.
Seeing this, the woman in white sighed, and then slowly explained: "To be honest, this pill is not for me. One of my senior sisters was seriously injured and never recovered.
In the past six months or so, we have been to many cities and towns, but we have not been able to find suitable healing elixirs. Later, I heard that your Song family has a third-level alchemist, so I took my senior sister to Weiguo to look for it. Please help.
Fellow Daoist Song, if you can help me with this once, I will remember you as a favor. If you need help in the future, feel free to tell me directly. "
When the woman in white said this, she still had a nervous look on her face, as if she was afraid that Song Yuanhao would directly reject her request.
When Song Yuanhao saw this, he quickly waved his hand to her He smiled and said: "What are you talking about, fellow Taoist? It was because of your help to me that I owed you a favor.
My Taoist friend has traveled thousands of miles to come to me today. Naturally, I should repay this favor. I, Song Yuanhao, am by no means an ungrateful person. How can I use this to ask for a favor from my Taoist friend?
However, the elixir that fellow Taoist needs is not available in my lower body. I can help you ask your ancestor about this matter.
Don’t worry, fellow Taoist, my family has always been kind to people. If there is one from my ancestors, I will ask for it for you. If there is no one in the clan, I will help fellow Taoist think of other ways.
Friend Daoist, I’d better keep this spiritual talisman and follow me up the mountain first! "
After Song Yuanhao finished speaking, he returned the wooden box in his hand to the other party, waiting for the other party's answer with a hint of expectation.
"Well, that's fine, then I'll do it first. Thank you Taoist friend. "When the woman in white saw this, after thinking for a moment, she took back the wooden box and nodded in agreement.
The two walked and chatted all the way up the mountain. Song Yuanhao led the way and introduced the scenery on the mountain to the woman in white.
This also made the woman in white, who came to the Song family for the first time, gradually become more relaxed after seeing the beautiful scenery around "Funiu Mountain".
Song Yuanhao has been focusing on cultivating in the clan for many years and does not like to interact with others. He always looks aloof in front of the younger members of the family and rarely takes the initiative to talk to others.
Seeing Song Yuanhao happily chatting with the white jade woman in the distance, the several Song family disciples who had just been guarding the mountain gate at the foot of the mountain showed a bit of confusion on their faces.
"Uncle Jiu, who is this senior? How come I have never heard that uncle Yuan Hao has such a friend."
"Yes, I have been going up the mountain for so many years, This is the first time I have seen Uncle Yuan Hao so happy. What kind of identity does this person have that can actually greet him with such a smile?"
The leading middle-aged man from the "Xuan" generation of the Song family was also very surprised at this moment. Hearing the questions from the two juniors, he could only smile and shook his head and replied:
"I'm not the third one too. I met her once, how could I know her identity? If you think so You know, why not just go up and ask Uncle Yuan Hao, maybe he will tell you right now if he is happy."
Hearing the suggestion of the elder in front of them, the original coldness of Song Yuanhao immediately came to mind. Looking at his face, he quickly shook his head instinctively.
"Haha! Uncle Jiu, you are really good at joking. We are just curious to ask where we dare to really inquire about Uncle Yuan Hao's affairs.
It is better to be careful and cautious. Otherwise, it will be too late to regret when you are sent to Yinfengling for mining.”
After taking the woman in white all the way to his cave and settling down, Song Yuanhao left directly to the top of the mountain to find the family ancestor Huang Siyuan and inquire about the high-level healing elixir.
It was not until half an hour later that Song Yuanhao returned to the cave with a happy face, bringing the good news she wanted to the woman in white who was waiting nervously.
"How are you, Fellow Daoist Song, is there any hope of getting the elixir?"
Seeing Song Yuanhao return, the woman in white hurried forward and asked nervously, until she saw Song Yuanhao talking to her After nodding her head, the woman in white was completely relieved.
"I just went to see my ancestor. She happened to have a third-level recovery pill in her hand, and she asked me to take you to see her now. Don't be nervous. Just tell me if you have anything to say later. That’s it.”
"Well! Now that we are here, we naturally have to listen to fellow Taoists. Please take me there quickly, so as not to keep senior waiting for a long time!"
Song Yuanhao nodded slightly and led the woman in white out of the cave. Then the two of them walked all the way to the top of the mountain, and soon arrived at the third floor of the family's "Huixian Pavilion", where they met Huang Siyuan who had been waiting here for a long time.
But what surprised Song Yuanhao was that when he left here not long ago, Huang Siyuan was the only one here. I don’t know when Song Qingming came here, and he was talking to Huang Siyuan at the moment. .
Seeing Song Yuanhao walking in with the woman in white, the two of them just glanced at Song Yuanhao and immediately focused on the woman in white next to him.
Seeing Song Qingming and Huang Siyuan staring at her closely, the woman in white's originally calm face became a little nervous again. She hurriedly stepped forward and bowed and said:
"Junior Xu Qingyin, greetings to the two seniors!"
"There is no need to be polite when distinguished guests come to the door. You have to get up first."
Seeing Xu Qingyin who was saluting, Huang Siyuan waved her hands quickly and waited until Xu Qingyin After getting up, he continued to speak with a smile on his face: "Yuan Hao just told me what fellow Taoist Xu came to ask for today. .
I do have a third-level recovery pill here that can meet your needs. Since you are kind to Yuan Hao, it is not impossible to make it convenient for you.
However. , before that, I have a few more questions. As long as your answers satisfy us, then this pill will be yours today.”
Hearing Huang Siyuan's words, Xu Qingyin nodded quickly and replied: "Senior, if you have any questions, feel free to ask. As long as the junior knows about it, he will not dare to deliberately deceive you."
"Okay! Where did Xu Daoyou come from? Does the monk from that sect have anything to do with the Hunyuan Sect of the Song Dynasty?”
“Senior, I don’t know. Although I have been practicing in the Song Dynasty for many years, I did not enter Taoism in the Song Dynasty, and I have nothing to do with the Hunyuan Sect. As for my master, she was only a foundation-building casual cultivator and passed away decades ago. "
Hearing Huang Siyuan ask about the origin of her apprenticeship, Xu Qingyin immediately understood that the other party wanted to find out her details.
Facing the questions from the two Golden Elixir monks, Xu Qingyin, who came to ask for help, did not dare to hide anything, and directly told her life story in detail to her face.
Xu Qingyin's master was originally a monk from the Jindan sect from the Lieshan Kingdom surrounding the Song Dynasty. She had just successfully established the foundation two hundred years ago and happened to catch up with the sect's turmoil.
At that time, her master was forced to leave the sect and become a casual cultivator because he was on the wrong team. Xu Qingyin was one of the disciples she accidentally accepted after becoming a casual cultivator.
Decades ago, Xu Qingyin’s master offended a powerful enemy. In order to avoid the other party’s revenge, he took Xu Qingyin and several other disciples and left Lieshan Kingdom to practice in Song Kingdom.
As her master and other senior brothers and sisters passed away over the years, Xu Qingyin was left with only one senior sister who had successfully built the foundation earlier than her. Her success in building the foundation was mostly due to the support of this senior sister. .
Six months ago, Xu Qingyin’s senior sister Li Xiuning went to Taiyue Lake with her Taoist companions and others to hunt monsters. Unfortunately, they encountered a golden elixir stage monster king. Almost all of the group died in the monster. In Wang's hands, only Li Xiuning managed to escape.
However, although Li Xiuning saved her life, her meridians were severely damaged. After taking a lot of pills, her internal injuries not only failed to recover but became more serious.
For this reason, Xu Qingyin, who was worried about her senior sister's injury, could only look for high-level healing elixirs everywhere, hoping to help Li Xiuning recover from her injuries as soon as possible.
It’s just that although she and Li Xiuning are both foundation-building monks, they are just casual cultivators. They don’t know any high-level alchemists outside, and they have no connections to contact high-status golden elixir monks.
After leaving the Song Kingdom, Xu Qingyin and his wife went to several surrounding countries, but failed to find a way to exchange for high-level healing elixirs.
Finally, when they arrived near the Kingdom of Wu, Xu Qingyin remembered that Song Yuanhao had told her that the Song family had a third-level alchemist. Then she brought Li Xiuning to the Kingdom of Wei, thinking of encountering "Funiu Mountain" Try your luck to find high-level healing elixirs.
"Two seniors, everything the junior just said is true. If there is a lie, I will be willing to have God's will bite me, and I will not make any progress in my lifelong cultivation."
Seeing Xu Qingyin make an oath on the spot, Song Yuanhao, who was standing aside, immediately stepped forward. He bowed and said: "Ancestor, when I met Xu Daoyou, I also knew a little about her situation.
I am willing to guarantee that Xu Daoyou has absolutely nothing to do with the Hunyuan Sect of the Song Dynasty. Relationship."
Seeing the worried look on Song Yuanhao's face, Song Qingming who was sitting aside quickly waved his hands to them and said: "You don't have to be like this when you get up first. I asked, but because of the special relationship between our country of Wei and the Hunyuan Sect of the Song Dynasty, we were afraid that Xu Daoyou would have any misunderstandings in the future due to his relationship with them, so we asked a few questions in advance
Since you have nothing to do with Hunyuan Sect, let's leave this matter alone and there is no need to say anything more. "(End of this chapter)
