Half an hour later, Liu Yuxin, who was guarding outside the cave on the top of the mountain, suddenly felt a fluctuation from the ban beside him.
Before she could get closer, the next moment, two figures walked out of the forbidden face with a calm expression.
As soon as he walked out of the cave, Xia Mo turned around and bowed slightly to Song Qingming:
"Fellow Daoist Song, since you and I have agreed on this matter, I will say goodbye first."
"Don't worry, fellow Taoist, I will definitely go to the appointment on time.
Yuxin, please send Fellow Daoist Xia to me! ”
Song Qingming nodded, then gave an order to Liu Yuxin beside him, and soon Xia Mo left "Heiyun Island" directly under her initiative.
Looking at the backs of Xia Mo and the other two leaving, Song Qingming, who was standing there, couldn't help but remain silent for a moment before turning around and walking down the mountain.
When she just heard Xia Mo ask to help search for spiritual objects in the "Northern Xinjiang", Song Qingming was indeed a little hesitant at the beginning.
After all, the place we are going to is extremely dangerous and the "Northern Frontier" is surrounded by the demon clan.
Even as a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, if you accidentally encounter a demon master, it may be difficult for you to escape safely.
But after hesitating for a moment, Song Qingming quickly strengthened his heart and nodded in agreement with Xia Mo's request.
As the other party said, they have already cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage and are standing at the top of the immortal cultivation world. It is very difficult to take a step forward in their cultivation.
If you have no hope of the path of Tao, you just want to stay in the state of Nascent Soul for the rest of your life.
Then Song Qingming could naturally close the door and hide in his own Lingshan to practice, not go out to seek opportunities or ask about things outside.
But if he is unwilling to stop here and wants to go further on the road, it will be impossible for him not to go out in the future.
In recent years, although Song Qingming has not practiced slowly, he has successfully advanced to the second level of the Nascent Soul.
But most of these are attributed to the "Yanxin Jade" he accidentally swallowed back then, and the level 4 spiritual pill given by Zhao Wuling, the "Wanling Sect".
If it weren't for these spiritual objects that helped Song Qingming save decades of cultivation, he would probably still be in the first level of the Nascent Soul realm and would not have achieved what he has today.
This kind of thing that others take the initiative to deliver to your door can only be encountered occasionally, and you cannot have such good luck at all times.
In the world of immortal cultivation, most opportunities or spiritual objects must be accompanied by equal dangers.
This trip to the "Northern Frontier" was indeed a bit risky for Song Qingming, but it also brought him some experience in going out for adventures.
Since you want to continue, these dangers are inevitable. Instead of hesitating and missing the opportunity, it is better to take the initiative to go out and see more different scenery.
Compared to hundreds of years ago, the Song family is just a small Qi-refining family that is surging in the cracks in the world of immortal cultivation.
But now Song Qingyu, Song Yuanhao and others have successfully formed elixirs, and the "Funiu Mountain" family is very stable everywhere and has developed thriving.
The East China Sea and the family branches led by Song Changze and others have also taken root steadily in the "Chinxing Sea".
Even if he did not worry about it, the patriarch, these younger generations could already lead the family to continue. At this time, he could consider more about his own path.
Song Qingming, walking in the mountains, looked at the earth-shaking changes on the "Black Cloud Island", and a smile gradually appeared on his face.
After living in "Heiyun Island" for a few days, Song Qingming took the initiative to guide Song Changze, Liu Yuxin and others in their practice before leaving and returning to the "Floating Cloud Mountains" world of immortal cultivation.
This time, it took Song Qingming less than two months from going out to returning.
The reason why I am so anxious is because I am afraid that something will happen to "Chiyun Mountain" after I leave.
Fortunately, when Song Qingming returned, the mountain was still safe and sound, and finally he completely let go of his lingering heart.
Seeing that Song Qingming brought back so smoothly this time, Huang Siyuan was immediately very happy and soon buried her in seclusion and alchemy.
There is also a third-level fire vein on "Chiyun Mountain", and its grade is better than the "Funiu Mountain" of the Song family.
After the two moved here, in order to facilitate Huang Siyuan's alchemy refining, Song Qingming personally arranged for people to build a larger alchemy room on "Chiyun Mountain".
Although it is not as good as the Dan Medicine Pavilion under the jurisdiction of Chu Fengping, "Guyang Mountain", it is enough for Huang Siyuan to use it.
Huang Siyuan began to go into seclusion to refine elixirs, and Song Qingming quickly returned to his cave and became busy.
This time, Xia Mo agreed to go to the "Northern Xinjiang" to search for spiritual objects, and Song Qingming naturally had to make as much preparation as possible.
Now that the cultivation level has reached the Nascent Soul stage, it is very difficult to break through to one level.
It is difficult for Song Qingming to break through the realm without special improvement in cultivation.
According to his own estimate, under normal circumstances, if Song Qingming wants to advance to the third level of the Nascent Soul, it will take at least thirty or forty years even if it is very smooth.
It is still far from Song Qingming to rely on breakthrough cultivation to improve his own strength.
In addition, the most influencing the cultivator's own strength is the quality of the magic weapons and talismans in his hands.
Magical treasures and talismans with a level 4 or above are extremely rare in the world of immortal cultivation. Except for some large-scale intercontinental trade fairs held by "Lei Yuanhai", spiritual objects of this level are not visible in ordinary markets.
Even if Song Qingming’s fourth-level low-grade magic weapon is not considered to be his own natal magic weapon, the “Five Elements Divine Light Mirror”, there are several magic weapons of level 4 or above, including “Qingyu Bottle”, “Lihuo Red Heart Sword” and “Treasure Light Golden Armor”.
There is also the special magic weapon "Green Rhino Jade Pendant" that assists in breaking illusions, and the "Red Jade Plate" obtained from the "Phantom Sea Desert" demon cultivator, which are also a good high-level defensive magic weapon.
Although he does not have a level 4 middle-grade or above magic weapon, even if he meets a mid-level Nascent Soul cultivator, he will not suffer too much in this regard even if he encounters a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.
As for the high-level talismans above level 4, Song Qingming also has two in his hand.
A level 4 low-grade spiritual talisman was replaced by a large customer of the "Tiandan League" through Huang Siyuan's relationship a few years ago.
The other one was created by Li Mufeng using the materials on the demon emperor after killing the "Chinyun Demon Emperor" last time, he asked the "Star Gate" elder He Wuyou to help him refine it.
At that time, He Wuyou refined two fourth-level low-grade talismans, and Li Mufeng distributed one of them to Song Qingming.
Now his wealth in magic weapons and talismans is definitely far beyond that of ordinary early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, and it is enough for him to use it for the time being.
What makes Song Qingming more anxious to improve now is his biggest trump card, "The Puppet Formation of All Spirits".
Although there is already a "puppet" in the Nascent Soul Stage and five "puppets" above the Golden Elixir Stage, most of the "puppets" in their hands are in the Golden Elixir Stage and their quality is not too high.
Once you fight with a powerful Nascent Soul master, this level of "puppet beast" will easily be damaged on the spot when encountering the opponent's powerful magical attack.
After Song Qingming fought with the mysterious demon cultivator in the "Fantasy Sea Desert", all the "puppet beasts" they originally equipped with were damaged in the battle.
Just in case, the few "puppet beasts" on his body will be damaged in the future. Song Qingming also wants to prepare as many as one or two for backup before setting off.
In addition, we must try to improve the cultivation of "Golden Wind" and "Silver Armor" as much as possible to strengthen their combat effectiveness.
This is also one of the few ways he can improve the formation and his own strength in a short period of time.
Fortunately, after coming to "Chiyun Mountain", with the large market at the foot of the mountain, which is now not inferior to "Guiyunfang", it is indeed much more convenient for Song Qingming to collect high-level puppet materials.
In less than two months, Song Xuanqing, who was stationed in the Song family store at the foot of the mountain, collected a lot of puppet materials and sent them to Song Qingming.
Just as Song Qingming was busy in the cave, another letter suddenly came from "Guyang Mountain", interrupting him, who was hiding in the cave, who was fully refining the puppet beast.
Standing in the cave, Song Qingming, holding the letter in his hand, looked carefully for a long time before turning his eyes to Huang Siyuan, Luo Qingyun and Zheng Zongxun on the side.
"How come Senior Sister Zhao left so suddenly? Why didn't you hear me mention her serious illness in advance?"
A few years ago, when the "Xiaoyao Sect" joined forces with the "Tianji Sect" to lead a large army of monks to attack "Chiyun Mountain", Zhao Mengling, the elder of the Jindan of the sect, also participated in the battle.
However, in the subsequent battle to guard "Chiyun Mountain", she was unfortunately injured by a late-stage demon king of Jindan, so she returned to the sect to heal her wounds in advance.
Although Zhao Mengling's injuries were a little serious at that time, Song Qingming and the others quickly gave her a healing pill and sent someone to send her back to the rear for recuperation.
In the past few years, because he has been in charge of "Chiyun Mountain", Song Qingming has not returned to the sect. He is not sure about the specific situation and thinks that Zhao Mengling's injury has stabilized and is not seriously injured.
Unexpectedly, he suddenly received news from "Guyang Mountain". Zhao Mengling's injuries worsened and sat in her cave, and her heart couldn't help but feel surprised.
Hearing Song Qingming's tone in front of him with a hint of questioning, Luo Qingyun and Zheng Zongxun, who were standing aside, looked embarrassed and didn't know how to respond for a while.
Huang Siyuan, who was still standing aside, sighed lightly and slowly explained to him:
"Husband, after Senior Sister Zhao returned to the sect, I also visited her. Her injuries had indeed improved.
As far as I know, Senior Sister Zhao seemed to have received a healing pill a year ago, so she hurriedly closed her mouth.
I guess it was because my senior sister had a problem while healing her injuries, so she suddenly sat in the cave.
Husband, you also know that Senior Sister Zhao doesn’t live much, and she suffered such a serious injury a few years ago. It’s not strange that she will have such a situation. ”
Among the dozen Jindan elders of the "Xiaoyao Sect", Zhao Mengling is the oldest, and her life span is almost 540 years old.
According to the 600th anniversary of the Jindan monk, Zhao Mengling only had more than fifty years of life left at most, which was indeed close to the time when his qi and blood were in decline. At this time, he suffered a severe blow, which would have affected some of Zhao Mengling's own life span.
In addition, she is eager to recover from her injuries after going into seclusion. Once something goes wrong during the healing process, it will indeed cause the monk to sit down in advance.
When the "monster beast turmoil" was so dangerous, Zhao Mengling survived safely, but she didn't expect that she suddenly became a scattered in the peace she had finally won.
Thinking of this, Song Qingming couldn't help but sigh slightly, feeling a little regretful.
Hearing Huang Siyuan's explanation, Song Qingming stood there and was silent for a moment before turning around and nodding to everyone.
"I'll inform you that all the monks on the mountain will be more vigilant. We will set off to rush back to Guyang Mountain tomorrow."
A day later, Song Qingming, Huang Siyuan, Luo Qingyun and others appeared outside "Guyang Mountain".
As soon as everyone arrived at "Muyun Peak", they saw that the white sails were already shining on the mountain. Many disciples of the sect walked up to Lingshan in turn, most of them had a look of sadness on their faces.
As the Jindan elder who has been guarding the sect for many years, Zhao Mengling has a gentle temper. Among the many elders in the sect, her reputation has always been relatively good.
In addition, she has been in charge of the sect Spirit Planting Pavilion for many years and has trained many elite disciples, so there are many more sect monks who came to "Muyun Peak" to mourn her than Song Qingming imagined.
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
As soon as he walked into the mourning hall, he saw dozens of white-clothed monks kneeling in front of the coffin in front of him, most of whom were personal disciples Zhao Mengling had accepted over the years.
Among them, the one who kneeled in front and cried the most sadly was Yun Nishang, the only disciple of Zhao Mengling, who successfully formed a pill.
Because her Taoist couple failed to successfully form a pill in her early years, although Zhao Mengling got married, she did not leave much bloodline. Therefore, the main reason for her funeral was Yun Nishang and these disciples to help with her.
Seeing Song Qingming walking in with people, Yun Nishang and others immediately bowed to the ground in the mourning hall.
Seeing this, everyone bowed to return the gifts, and then stepped forward one by one under Song Qingming's leadership, and took the initiative to burn incense and worship in front of Zhao Mengling's tablet.
Just as everyone worshiped Zhao Mengling one by one, a sound suddenly sounded in the mourning hall, making everyone turn their eyes.
A man in a white robe suddenly stepped forward and knelt directly at the feet of Song Qingming who had just finished worshiping, and cried loudly with a sad look on his face:
"Old ancestor, great-grandmother had just passed away, and Uncle Yun closed her cave. Even the spiritual objects given to me in the family have been taken away by Uncle Master, and not a single item was left for me.
I also ask my ancestor to uphold justice for me here and ask Uncle Yun to return the relics of his great-grandmother to me. ”
The man in white robe who cried, named Chen Deting, was the only one among Zhao Mengling's few descendants who successfully built the foundation in these years.
However, Chen Deting was not very talented in cultivation, although he was barely able to build the foundation at the age of 60 with the support of Zhao Mengling.
But in the past 100 years of foundation building, Chen Deting has barely cultivated to the sixth level of foundation building. Among Zhao Mengling's many personal disciples, his talent is almost the lowest.
Over the years, Chen Deting has always felt indignant about this as he watched his great-grandmother Zhao Mengling gradually neglect himself, but fully supported Yun Nishang and others.
Seeing that Zhao Mengling was sitting in the process of transformation, the cave was directly closed by Yun Nishang and others, Chen Deting thought in his heart that his great-grandmother's relics had all fallen into the hands of these disciples.
He asked for help everywhere but failed. Today, he saw Song Qingming, the sect's Yuanying ancestor, come to worship, and simply started making a fuss in the mourning hall.
Seeing Chen Deting suddenly kneeling in front of Song Qingming with a look of groaning, the disciples of Zhao Mengling standing not far away were all caught off guard, and hurried forward to help the man in white robe up.
"Zenior Brother Chen, what are you doing? Master's cave was asked to close us first. What's wrong with Senior Sister Guan Yun?"
"Yes! Today, the Supreme Elder was able to come to worship the Master in person, which has given me great face.
How can you be sober in front of the master like this? ”
".."
Seeing this, Chen Deting ignored it and simply threw himself in the can and rushed forward and hugged Song Qingming's right foot.
But before he could meet Song Qingming, a powerful thrust pushed him back, causing him to fall directly to the ground.
"Where is the Law Enforcement Hall?"
Hearing Song Qingming's order, several monks standing next to the hall immediately walked in quickly and bowed to Song Qingming.
"Greetings to the ancestor!"
"Take it down and leave it to the head of the army to deal with it!"
"As for your order!"
Seeing several cultivators from the law enforcement hall of the sect walking towards him with a cold look on their faces, Chen Deting suddenly panicked and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed to beg for mercy.
"I was confused just now. Please forgive me!
. ”
Faced with Chen Deting's desperate begging for mercy, Song Qingming did not pay any attention to it, and turned around and walked out of the hall with a calm expression.
Originally, I just wanted to mourn the old friend, but when I encountered Chen Deting's big fuss in the mourning hall, Song Qingming was also a little unhappy about this. After going to say hello to Bai Yuxian and others, he hurriedly left "Guyang Mountain".
After returning to "Chiyun Mountain", Song Qingming entered seclusion again. In addition to daily practice, he also devoted all his own thoughts to refining puppets.
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, another three years passed quickly.
On this day, Song Qingming, who was meditating in the cave, kept flashing red spirits above his head, and his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.
The red spiritual light suddenly changed and turned into a somewhat dull orange-yellow color.
Immediately afterwards, Song Qingming's entire face loosened, and the sweat on his forehead suddenly dried and turned into a smog of white mist.
When Song Qingming gradually exhaled a large cloud of turbid air from his mouth, his closed eyes slowly opened, and he stood up from the cushion.
"I have practiced for so long and finally passed the first level."
The "Tongtian Wanling Jue" Jindan stage practiced by Song Qingming is divided into nine levels. Every time one level is completed, the color of the spiritual light on the top of the head will change when practicing.
After successfully breaking through the first level and reaching the second level, Song Qingming also felt that his physical body had been significantly enhanced.
Knowing that the "Tongtian Wanling Jue" he had practiced had made a little progress, his face couldn't help but look happy.
After practicing the "Tongtian Ten Thousand Spirits" for so many years, Song Qingming had long thought that after reaching the Golden Elixir Stage, it would be even more difficult to practice.
It has taken more than ten years to finally break through to the second level of the Golden Pill Stage. Although this speed is not very fast, it is also within Song Qingming's expectations.
However, Song Qingming was still very happy to be able to strengthen his body at this time.
After taking out a new set of clothes from the storage bag and putting them on, Song Qingming turned around and came to a cave next to him.
Standing at the door, Song Qingming looked at the "Golden Wind" and "Silver Armor" not far away in front of him, as well as the two golden elixir "puppet beasts" guarding them, and immediately took them back into the spirit beast bag with a hint of satisfaction.
Relying on his own continuous efforts and the help of the monks in the family below to continuously refine puppet refining materials, Song Qingming spent three years to finally successfully refine two early-stage "puppet beasts" of the Golden Pill.
Moreover, with the supply of a large amount of elixirs refined by Huang Siyuan, the cultivation of the two corpse puppets, "Golden Wind" and "Silver Armor", has also been upgraded to the seventh level of the golden elixir and the sixth level of the golden elixir respectively.
Although this time consumed a lot of materials and spiritual objects, it finally increased the power of the "World Spirit Puppet Array" to the limit that I can do now.
Song Qingming was also very satisfied with this. After installing them, he turned around and came to another stone chamber next to him.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw a bunch of "golden butterflies" flying towards me, and the "icy and fire dragons" covered in red all over my body also quickly came to Song Qingming's feet.
Seeing this, Song Qingming took out the spirit beast bag and cast a spell to throw it into the air.
A colorful light flew up, and countless "golden butterflies" that were parked on Song Qingming took the initiative to fly into the spiritual beast bag in the air.
"I'm going out for a while, and you stay on the mountain to see the cave.
If Siyuan needs help with anything, don’t be lazy, you must remember it. ”
Hearing Song Qingming's serious advice, a hint of aggrieved look suddenly appeared on the face of "Ice and Fire Dragon", and he quickly climbed onto his shoulders with a flash.
"Master, you haven't taken Xiao Jin out for a long time. Let's take me out for a while this time!
I have already broken through the third level of the Golden Pill, and I will definitely help you and will not cause trouble. ”
Seeing the "Ice Fire Dragon" arching his head and complaining constantly in his ears, Song Qingming thought about it and nodded slightly.
Seeing that Song Qingming finally agreed to his request, a joy suddenly appeared on the face of the "Ice and Fire Dragon", and he directly drilled into the bag of the spirit beast that had just taken out from Song Qingming's hand.
After putting away all the storage bags on his waist, Song Qingming turned around and walked out of his cave, took out a sound transmission talisman from his body, casting a spell and putting it out.
Seeing the spirit talisman successfully penetrate into a cave not far from the top of the mountain, Song Qingming immediately stepped on the light of the spirit and left the top of the mountain.
The next moment, a light quickly passed through the "Chiyun Mountain" mountain protection formation, and then headed eastward. (This chapter ends)
