Chapter 291 South of Qingling (two in one, the final chapter of this volume)
Li Qing, who was driving the snake-headed spirit boat, ran southward for several days and finally approached the southern region of Qingling.
The surrounding temperature is already very cold, especially in this high altitude, the cold wind is biting. If Li Qing were not physically strong, he would definitely suffer from the cold temperature.
Sitting in the spirit boat, Su Xin's spiritual consciousness has recovered a lot these days. It is not as weak as it was a few days ago, as if she was about to faint at any time.
She was wrapped in a furry black clothing, and she was holding a fiery red bead in her hand to keep warm.
"How did you end up in the Mu Kingdom in the Southern Qingling Territory? In fact, you can go back to the Tianhe Sect area. I can help you explain the misunderstandings that happened before." Su Xin's voice sounded a little soft, indicating that she had not yet fully recovered. come over.
Li Qing shook his head and said: "Forget it, the uncle of one of the disciples I killed had a good background. Like you, he was a foundation-building elder of the Tianhe Sect."
"If I follow you If you go back, you will have trouble sleeping and eating. "
In the cold clouds and mist, Su Xin fell silent holding the Nuanyang Orb in her hand. She hesitated to open her mouth, but after all, she never told herself. Tell Li Qing about his true identity in Tianhe Sect.
"So you came to Mu country with the intention of joining the Lingyun Sect?" Su Xin asked.
Li Qing nodded and said: "Well, I want to give it a try. If I can join Lingyun Sect, I don't have to worry too much about these trivial matters."
"Then put me down. Well, otherwise if people from Lingyun Sect recognize my identity, it will have an impact on your joining," Su Xin said leisurely.
Among the three immortal sects in Qingling Domain, Lingyun Sect is the most aloof from the world, but this kind of escaping attitude does not mean that it has little relationship with the other two sects. of harmony.
Although it is not as incompatible as the Shangqing Sect and the Tianhe Sect, the relationship is not much better. It can only be said to be as light as water, neither hostile nor friendly.
"Are you sure you want to leave here? Although you have temporarily got rid of the golden war boat, the other party may not give up yet, in case you encounter it," Li Qing said tentatively.
Su Xin smiled, and her beautiful face looked much gentler.
“Little man, are you worried about me?”
In response, Li Qing did not squint his eyes and continued to focus on driving the spirit boat.
Actually, if we really talk about it, he is about the same age as Su Xin, but because of his long life span, his face looks like he is only in his twenties, and his bone age is only about twenty-seven years old. .
“No matter how you say it, we are all sharing the same adversity, and there is no enmity between life and death. Isn’t it normal to think about you!”
He is not a ruthless person, and his feelings towards the woman next to him in the Foundation Establishment Stage are quite complicated.
Although he was chased by the other party in a panic before, he later had a romantic relationship with him in a mountain stream. In the end, he was able to escape from the Liang Kingdom because of the other party's sacrifice of his life.
Later, the misunderstanding was resolved. To be honest, Li Qing at least did not hate this reasonably sensible woman.
The next moment, Li Qing felt that his cheek was suddenly pressed by something soft.
His movements in controlling the spirit boat could not help but stagnate, then he turned sideways and embraced Su Xin into his arms with his strong arms.
This time, in his sober consciousness, Li Qing truly felt what true gentleness was like water.
And Su Xin also learned what it means to have the physique of a human master!
I will never regret taking off my clothes and belt, and I will make people haggard because of Yixiao.
The sky above the southern country, which has cold temperatures all year round, seems to have entered spring.
Unfortunately, no one is lucky enough to appreciate this spring scene.
"Okay, little man, I'm leaving, so I won't be a burden to you."
"If we are destined to meet again, let's meet again."
Only one clean and neat words are left. , Su Xin once again controlled a divine rainbow and flew towards the northwest, where the Maple Kingdom was located.
He walked away so happily, and his straightforward attitude made Li Qing a little surprised, wondering who was the man!
Looking at Su Xin disappearing into the mist, Li Qing murmured: "We who are cultivators of immortality, pursuing the path of immortality is the greatest meaning of this life. The love between children is nothing more than a casual relationship, as it should be!"< br>
After finishing his words, Li Qing took out a map of Mu Country and a piece of intelligence information about Lingyun Sect.
“If we calculate the time, Lingyun Sect’s Immortal Ascension Conference has ended for a while. If so many things had not happened, I should be able to catch up.”
“ It’s a pity that now I can only try my luck!”
After saying that, he identified the direction, then put away the map, continued to drive the spirit boat, and headed directly in the direction of Lingyun Sect.
Phew!
The clouds and mist were shrouded, and a green light flashed past at an extremely fast speed.
Not long after, a golden war boat also arrived in the direction where the snake-headed spirit boat had stopped.
"Chasing! The spiritual boat has just stayed here for a while. Judging from the trajectory of the spiritual power, it should be heading to the southwest."
On the golden war boat, Zhong Ya's expression It was quite unsightly. After several days of pursuit, he was finally able to get rid of him because he was not as fast as the opponent.
Unwilling to be reconciled, he pursued him to the territory of Mu Kingdom.
"That's the direction of Lingyun Sect." Lu Feiyu, who was wearing gray robe, said with a frown.
"What are you afraid of? That woman is an elder of Tianhe Sect. I am absolutely sure of this. Lingyun Sect will never protect her."
After saying that, Zhong Ya continued to urge. He got up the golden war boat and flew quickly following the trajectory of the snake-headed spirit boat.
Mu Country, which is under a cold climate all year round, is a real snow country.
Further south, there is a continuous snow-capped mountain range called the Forbidden Words Snow Mountain. It is a real restricted area of life. Even if the monks in the foundation building stage want to cross it, it is extremely difficult. matter.
The Lingyun Sect was established based on a spiritual vein with strong spiritual energy near the Forbidden Snow Mountain.
On this snow-capped mountain plateau with extremely extreme climate, a group of figures actually appeared. This was simply an unimaginable thing.
"Hey, hey, hey, why does Elder Wu of our sect have such a big appetite? I have watched him eat since the beginning of the Immortal Ascension Conference. It is almost time to return to the mountain gate, and he is still here. Eat."
"Hey, yes, I doubt whether his storage bag is full of food."
"Say less, I heard this. Elder Wu practices the Taotie magic, which is to eat.”
A group of casual cultivators who had just passed the Immortal Ascension Conference and joined the Lingyun Sect were really excited at the moment. They were about to arrive at the mountain gate of the Lingyun Sect, and by then they would be the real disciples of the Immortal Sect!
Along the way, many people have figured out the temperament of Elder Wu. He is very easy-going and indifferent, and does not care about other people's opinions at all, so these people dare to whisper a few words behind his back.
But after all, other Lingyun Sect elders still shouted: "Shut up, we are already close to the Snow Mountain of Speechlessness. It is forbidden to speak unless it is important!"
As soon as these words came out, those The bold monk who had just opened his mouth to speak immediately shut his mouth.
"吭哧吭哧! 吭哧吭Chi!"
However, even if these people closed their mouths, among the people present, they could still hear the sound of chewing food mixed in with the sound of wind and snow.
This made the foundation-building elder who just scolded him couldn’t help but put his hand on his forehead, and couldn’t help but whisper: "Junior brother Wu should pay attention to the image of the elder in front of the new disciples who join the sect, young master Take two bites.”
At the front of the team, Elder Wu, who kept stuffing food into his mouth, was chubby, his face was covered with fat, and his eyes were squeezed by fat. Only a seam remains.
The fat elder Wu said vaguely: "It's so cold and freezing that I don't want anyone to eat, so I want to eat!"
After saying that, he He stuffed a lot of food into his mouth, then took out two shiny roasted chicken legs and swallowed them in one bite without even spitting out the bones.
Seeing this scene, Elder Chen, who had just warned him, had black lines all over his head, but in the end he pursed his lips and said nothing more.
Although I feel that this person has lost his identity as an elder of the Lingyun Sect, I have no choice but to do so. The other person’s background is very prominent in the Lingyun Sect, and there is absolutely no problem in walking sideways.
Not long after, the group arrived at the mountain gate of Lingyun Sect and were about to enter the sect.
But the two leading elders stopped, and even Elder Wu stopped chewing food, but turned back and looked at the sky in the direction from where he came.
“Two damn old ghosts, you two are so damn good at chasing after them!”
Along with the gnashing of teeth, a ray of green light quickly approached, and it was seen to be a snake-head-shaped spiritual boat, moving extremely fast.
Seeing this scene, Elder Chen immediately raised his eyebrows and roared angrily: "How dare you, how dare you, a traitor, to fly in the air in front of the mountain gate of our Lingyun Sect!"
Who else could come besides Li Qing!
Li Qing, who was driving the snake-headed spirit boat, had his eyes gleaming at this moment.
He immediately controlled the spirit boat to land, and then took out a white jade token from his body with two words on the front and back: Ling and Yun!
"Senior, I have come all the way here just to join Lingyun Sect. Please read this order!"
After saying that, Li Qing knelt down on one knee, lowered his head, and presented the token with both hands. Go up.
"Huh? This is the Immortal Ascension Order of my Lingyun Sect!" Elder Chen's frowned brows immediately relaxed, and his wrinkled face immediately relaxed. His serious expression also softened.
As soon as the three words "Order of Immortality" came out, the other disciples who had recently joined the Lingyun Sect couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise, and most of them showed strange expressions.
"His! Ascension Order, this person is extremely lucky to have such a divine thing!"
"A Token of Ascension to Immortality is just a Foundation Establishment Pill. You are so lucky."
"Lingyun Sect has been standing in the world of immortal cultivation for many years. I didn't expect that there is an Token of Ascension to Immortality missing. Is it possible that it is a fake? What?”
“It shouldn’t happen. Forging the Immortal Order is a dead end.”
Li Qing listened unintentionally to the discussions among the other disciples present, and cold sweat dripped from his forehead. I just want to let the other party confirm the authenticity quickly, and then get the identity of Lingyun Sect disciple! Because behind him, there were two monks in the foundation-building stage who were chasing him aggressively.
"Bad beast, let me see how long your spiritual power can last. Today I have to skin and dismantle your bones to search for your soul and refine it!"
An angry voice fell, the wind and snow danced, and the sky was filled with clouds and mist. Above, an extremely gorgeous golden war boat came directly.
Boom!
Elder Chen, who was holding the token, took a deep look at Li Qing and said, "It is my sect's order to ascend to immortality, but are you being hunted?"
Li Qing bravely admitted this matter. Now that his spiritual power is almost dry, joining Lingyun Sect is his only way to survive.
"You are only in the Qi Refining Stage, how could you provoke two monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage? But it doesn't matter. With this token, you are already a disciple of my Lingyun Sect, and no one can do anything to you."
said. After finishing, Elder Chen rose into the air and stood in front of the huge golden war boat alone, firmly protecting all the new disciples who had joined the sect behind him.
“The two fellow Taoists came so aggressively, they really don’t take our Lingyun Sect seriously.”
Li Qing was finally relieved when he saw this scene. His tone and tense spirit also relaxed.
Finally, he is also a person protected by the sect!
Thinking of this, his nose couldn't help but feel sour, and his heart was filled with mixed emotions.
Rogue cultivators are so damn hard to get along with!
The golden war boat suddenly stopped. The two foundation-building monks who were chasing Li Qing clasped their fists respectfully and said:
"Fellow Taoist, please forgive me for coming here. It’s just to chase down a little evil beast, and there is absolutely no intention to offend the noble sect!”
Although they are both monks in the foundation building stage, Zhong and Lu keep their postures low, after all, they are in other families! In front of the mountain gate, if there is a conflict, it will be a life-or-death outcome.
The elder Chen snorted coldly: "Humph! There are no little evil beasts here, there are just disciples of my Lingyun Sect!"
"Please be careful with your words!"
< br>Hearing this, Lu Feiyu's face suddenly became extremely shocked, and his eyes were full of disbelief.
"How is it possible? The two of us chased him all the way. This man is obviously a rogue cultivator."
Elder Chen said in a leisurely manner: "This man just took out a The Immortal Order, based on emotion and reason, should also become a disciple of my Lingyun Sect.”
After hearing the three words of the Immortal Ascension Order, Lu Feiyu opened his mouth, and all the anger in his heart was taken back, unable to be vented at all.
"The Ascension Order is actually like this."
Soon, Zhong Ya on the side was much calmer. He walked out: "Fellow Taoist, I think this matter is still serious. I want to make sure. I saw this guy walking very close to a female elder from the Tianhe Sect before. Maybe he is a spy sent by the Tianhe Sect?"
Elder Chen looked startled when he heard this. , then looked back at Li Qing and said: "Is this the case?"
Li Qing took a deep breath, and he said: "It is indeed the case, but I am definitely not a spy sent by the Tianhe Sect. That day He The elder of the sect is a good friend I made on the road.”
As a disciple of Lingyun Sect, it is indeed not a good thing to be so close to the elders of other Immortal Sects.
Elder Chen’s brows furrowed as he thought carefully. If Li Qing was really a spy, it would be very troublesome, but the Ascension Order was indeed true.
"Hey, fellow Taoist, there is no need to worry, just let me take care of your worries. Let me take this son away, and the Immortal Order will be returned to the original owner, and it will be returned to Lingyun Sect."< br>
With that said, Zhong Ya was about to go forward, planning to capture Li Qing.
However, the next moment, an angry voice resounded:
"I want to see which one of you two dares to take a step forward!"
After saying that, Elder Wu walked forward with his chubby body and grabbed Li Qing's arm.
"Li Qing. It's really you! I'm not mistaken, am I right? After so many years, I actually see you again!"
Elder Wu, who still had food residue on his mouth, his face The fat on her body was trembling constantly, and she no longer looked like an elder at all.
Listening to this familiar voice and looking at the round figure that looked very familiar to him, Li Qing's brain immediately shut down.
His thoughts were rolling like a tidal wave, constantly tumbling forward, past so many years of experience and memories, and finally slowly stopped, settling on a frontier place where yellow sand was flying all over the sky.
Once upon a time, he had not yet practiced martial arts, and was just a blacksmith apprentice with the border army.
At that time, there used to be a fat man about his age. Every time he served rice, he would add two extra pieces of fat and thick braised pork to him!
The fat man also likes to steal food very much, and often has a saying in his mouth:
"If the cook does not steal, the grain will not be harvested!"
After saying that, he would take out a few pieces of fat meat from the pot and stuff it into his mouth with a smile, and his mouth would be full of oil.
Until later when the horse thieves attacked the military camp, the fat man went to the granary to eat dried meat, saying that he would die as a full man no matter what.
If Li Qing hadn't shown him a clear path and took refuge in the tombs of Huangtu Bao, he would have died under the iron hoof of the horse thieves.
Li Qing, who had been stunned for a long time, said blankly: "Are you...Wu Chong, Fatty Wu?!"
"Yes, yes, it's me!" Wu Chong saw Li Qing. Recognizing himself, he immediately smiled.
"Hahahaha, let's catch up on old times later. I'll help you solve these troubles in front of you first."
After saying that, Fatty Wu took out a round bowl from the storage bag, then enlarged it and stepped on it. Flying in the air over the bowl.
Such a broken bowl turned out to be the best magical weapon!
Li Qing’s brows were twitching as he watched, wondering how this fat man had such an encounter, suddenly transformed into a monk in the Foundation Establishment Stage, and an elder of Lingyun Sect!
"Hmph, Li Qing took out the Immortal Ascension Order. According to the rules of our Lingyun Sect, no matter who he is, he should become a disciple of my sect!"
"Don't say he is not a spy. Even if he is a spy today, he is still a disciple of my Lingyun Sect!"
"If you two have anything to say, if nothing happens, just get out of here!"
Wu Chong crossed his arms with his chest, a arrogant attitude, and his fat body felt quite oppressive at this moment.
"This" Zhong Ya and Lu Feiyu looked at each other.
Wu Chong's face turned cold and he said in a deep voice: "Okay, okay, if you don't want to leave, then I will call my master to come out. It happens that my mountain gate is also short of two cooks, so I will let you be the ones. It’s time to cook!”
With that said, Wu Chong took out a jade pendant from his arms and pretended to crush it.
Seeing this scene, Elder Chen’s eyelids twitched and he immediately stopped his behavior.
"Junior Brother Wu, please stop, don't disturb Patriarch Tuntian with such trivial matters!"
Yes, the master of a monk in the Foundation Establishment Stage must be in the Pill Formation Stage. Ancestor.
Not only Lu Feiyu and Zhong Ya, but also Li Qing’s jaw dropped to the ground.
The new disciples who had discussed Wu Chong before turned pale. They didn't expect this foodie elder to have such a tough background. It was a bit scary!
"You two, please come back. This is the mountain gate of our Lingyun Sect. I don't want to say this a third time."
Elder Chen finally stood beside Wu Chong Next to him, Zhong Ya and Lu Feiyu, who were blocking the golden war boat side by side with him, also became tougher in tone.
Since someone has come up with a genuine order to ascend to immortality, no matter what their status is, they must become disciples of Lingyun Sect. This is a rule set at the beginning of the establishment of the sect. Each immortal sect has followed many Year.
As the elder of Lingyun Sect, he naturally has to protect the safety of the disciples in the sect.
Even if Wu Chong is eliminated, Elder Chen still has to step forward without hesitation.
Finally, Lu Feiyu and Zhong Ya took a deep breath, clasped their fists at Elder Chen and Wu Chong, and prepared to fly away in the golden war boat.
Not for anything else, just because in front of the mountain gate of Lingyun Sect, there are auras rising up one after another, and approaching quickly.
These auras are at least from the Foundation Establishment stage, and are even mixed with one or two monks from the fake elixir stage. If they stay for a long time, they may be in trouble. Even with this golden war boat, Gotta die here.
“Farewell!”
With only these words left, the two foundation-building monks left in dejection, completely different from the menacing momentum they had before.
At this point, Elder Chen smiled and held his beard with his hand, and said to all the new disciples below:
"Everyone, the front is the mountain gate of my Lingyun Sect. I am here. I want to say a few words.”
“Congratulations, you are now my Lingyun Sect’s disciples. From now on, you are the future of my Lingyun Sect. Every move you make outside also represents me. Lingyun Sect’s face!”
“Remember one thing, now that you have become a disciple of Lingyun Sect, no one can bully you!”
"The days ahead are still very long. We must practice diligently and strive to become the pillar of the sect!"
The next moment, all the disciples shouted in unison:
"Disciples, please remember the elders' teachings! ”
Li Qing, who was mixed in among them, could not help but be infected by this atmosphere at this moment
Yes, that’s right, now he is a disciple of Lingyun Sect. From now on, he The path of spiritual practice will also be different and a new chapter will be opened soon!
Seeing Elder Chen's smiling figure in the air, and Wu Chong's round belly, who kept winking at him, an unprecedented sense of belonging arose in his heart.
Now he, Li Qing, is also relying on someone from the sect!
When he thought of this, Li Qing couldn't help but clenched his fists. After struggling outside for so many years, the good times were finally coming!
Volume 2, The First Journey to Immortality, End!
This is the end of the second volume, which is a little different from what I expected, but I think it is quite good to end like this, and it fits the title of the volume "The First Journey to Immortality"!
Let me reveal the title of the third volume to you, it is tentatively titled "The Immortal Sect"!
As for the closing remarks, I decided to write them later or tomorrow. It’s just right. The holiday is just over, so everything feels just right!
