Chapter 139 Return to Xiaoyao Sect
Half a year later, in Xu Ziyan's cave in Guyang Mountain, Song Qingming held a jade box in both hands. The box contained a purple elixir that exuded Yiyi aura, which was the spiritual thing he wanted to dedicate to Xu Ziyan.
After he rashly offered a Huiyan Pill last time and did not impress Xu Ziyan, Song Qingming made some preparations in this regard before coming to see her this time. He went to the Jade Pavilion and carefully selected a plant that was very useful for foundation-building monks. The secondary elixir of attraction.
After all, friendship is friendship. He went to find an accomplished foundation-building monk again and again. Without bringing some kind gifts to express his gratitude, he felt that it was not safe in his heart. Most high-level monks in the world of immortality did not It’s about putting interests first.
"I'm here to disturb Captain Xu's Qing Xiu again. Something is really wrong with Song. I would like to ask Captain to forgive me. I accidentally obtained a second-level elixir in Yangshanfang some time ago. I am here to offer it to you today as a thank you to Captain." Thank you for helping me.”
Xu Ziyan nodded and said with a smile: "This pearl elixir seems to be three to four hundred years old. It really cost Taoist Song a lot of money."
It was not a waste of money. This elixir alone cost him two hundred spirit stones. This was because Yulou Pavilion had some friendship with him, so it didn't earn him too much. Although Song Qingming felt a little pain in his heart when he gave away the bead elixir, he still pretended not to care much on the surface.
Seeing that Song Qingming looked humble and polite every time he saw her, Xu Ziyan also felt that the distance between the two was much farther than when they were in Guiyunfang.
"Forget it, the time you agreed with Uncle Li is coming soon. If Fellow Daoist Song comes to see me, I may have to send someone down the mountain to find you in a few days." After putting away the elixir, Xu Ziyan raised his head and faced Song Qingming Then he slowly spoke to remind him.
Six months ago, after receiving a foundation-building pill from the Heavenly Pill Alliance, Song Qingming thought about it for a while, but ultimately did not choose to retreat into seclusion immediately to build a foundation.
There is no requirement for the level of mana for monks at the ninth level of Qi Refining to reach the level of foundation building. Although Song Qingming's magic power is not as strong as that of his third brother Song Qingze, he can still build the foundation at any time, but he has only cultivated to the peak of the ninth level of Qi Refining. Monks with very strong mana will have more mana in their bodies, and will have a slight advantage in mana deployment when they hit the foundation building bottleneck.
In Song Qingming's original plan, he would have to wait at least another year before exchanging the Foundation Establishment Pill from Xiaoyao Sect for the Foundation Establishment Pill. At that time, he estimated that he would not be too far from the peak of the ninth level of Qi Refining. , now that he had obtained a Foundation Establishment Pill in advance, it made him a little embarrassed again.
He didn't pay much attention to the influence of the mana in his body. This was mainly because monks built foundations and the retreat time was not very fixed. Except for a few people with outstanding cultivation talents, most people built foundations in about half a year, but there were some People need a longer time, and some people can successfully get out of seclusion in one or two years. Song Qingming knows that his spiritual root qualifications are very poor, and it is estimated that it will be a bit difficult for him to get out of seclusion in half a year.
There is less than a year left before he goes to Xiaoyao Sect to redeem the Foundation Establishment Pill. If he chooses to retreat now, if he misses this time and fails to successfully break through the Foundation Establishment Pill, it will be a bit outweighing the gain and loss for him.
After much deliberation, for the sake of safety, Song Qingming decided not to go into seclusion to build the foundation for the time being, and would go into seclusion after successfully getting the second foundation-building pill.
After going to the Tiandan Alliance auction and spending hundreds of spiritual stones, Song Qingming's spiritual stones that were originally used to exchange for foundation-building pills were also empty. There was no extra spiritual stone to buy other pills needed for cultivation. , it just so happens that he can use this period of time to get the spiritual stones he needs first. After all, he still has to go to Xiaoyao Sect, and maybe there are other needs. It is always safer to have more spiritual stones on him.
It took more than half a year. Song Qingming not only successfully raised the mana in his body to the peak of the ninth level of Qi Refining, but also saved hundreds of more spirit stones. Then he came to Xu Ziyan with a generous gift.
"Thank you very much for your concern, Captain Xu. I have been running around in the city during this period, and I only prepared the spirit stones a few days ago."
"I was worried that you wouldn't be able to raise so many spiritual stones. I didn't expect that Fellow Daoist Song was so rich. This time I was really blinded." Hearing Song Qingming say that he had collected enough to exchange for the Foundation Establishment Pill. Eight thousand pieces of spirit stone, Xu Ziyan's eyes quickly flashed with a hint of surprise.
Song Qingming waved his hand and said: "Captain Xu is joking. When I got the opportunity to redeem the Foundation Establishment Pill from Patriarch Li, the spirit stones on my body were indeed not enough, and I didn't have much hope for this matter at the beginning. .
Later, the reason why I was able to successfully raise the spiritual stones that could be exchanged for the Foundation Establishment Pill was because the elders in my family fully funded a sum of spiritual stones after knowing about this matter. This solved my urgent need. It was indeed not my intention to deceive Captain Xu. "
"Looking at me, I almost forgot that Fellow Daoist Song is a family monk. When you are building the foundation, your family can help you. It is indeed much better than us. The same is true for Junior Sister Gao when you were building the foundation a few years ago.
Unlike when I was building the foundation, only my master could help and talk, but she had many disciples, so she couldn't give all the resources to me. In the end, I had no choice but to risk my life and pass the test to become enlightened. "Xu Ziyan sighed after finishing speaking, with a hint of envy in his tone that Gao Yuyao and Song Qingming had great help from their families during their cultivation.
But she didn’t know that Song Qingming’s ability to collect enough spirit stones to exchange for the Foundation Establishment Pill actually had little to do with the Song family. If it were a similar Qi Refining family monk, even if he got this opportunity to exchange for the Foundation Establishment Pill, he would probably Even if he sells himself, it is impossible to collect 8,000 spiritual stones in a short time.
After the two chatted for a while in the cave, Xu Ziyan spent half an hour using his flying sword to bring Song Qingming to the Xiaoyao Sect Law Enforcement Hall again.
"This is Song Qingming, a monk from Qinghe County. He came to the Law Enforcement Hall to receive the sect's reward. Please go in and let me know, and help me see if Uncle Li is here."
"Okay! Please wait a moment, Uncle Xu." The gatekeepers were still several disciples in the Qi Refining Period. After hearing Xu Ziyan's intention, they stepped forward and saluted her, and then quickly walked into the law enforcement hall.
"You can rest assured that Uncle Li has always acted fairly in the sect. If he promises you, no one will dare to embarrass you." After informing the monks guarding the door, Xu Ziyan looked back and saw Song Qingming had arrived. He was a little nervous, so he quickly comforted him.
Song Qingming nodded and quickly calmed down his mind. The reason why he was a little scared was not because he was afraid of other Xiaoyao Sect monks. It was just that he was a little scared when he thought that he had to face an old monster at the Golden Core level again. Involuntarily nervous.
Golden elixir monks are basically old foxes who have been cultivating for hundreds of years. In front of these people, even if Song Qingming tries his best to stay calm, it is very difficult. It always feels like these high-level monks can see him with just a glance. The heart is average.
