Chapter 142 Convergence (Please subscribe, please collect)
Although Sun Mingsheng has been cautious by nature along the way, it does not mean he is timid. His Taoist mentality is quite indestructible. He has never been afraid of the opportunity. Knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, he prefers to go to the Tiger Mountains. He seems to have completely forgotten the seven-star spots. The threat of bees.
After a stick of incense, a corpse whose entire body had swollen to pitch black, with streams of foul black venom with a fishy smell constantly leaching out, and whose identity was completely lost, appeared in front of him.
The entire corpse was covered with visible black wounds caused by seven-star-spotted bee-tail needles, large and small, which were so densely packed that it made one's scalp numb.
Only the storage bag on the waist was still intact, and the spiritual weapon that fell to the ground was also dull and had lost its intended effect.
"Since you are dead, these spiritual objects cannot be used even if you think about it. Even if they are used as expenses for burial, you can be considered lucky to meet me. You are freed from the suffering of sun and rain." A flash of light flashed, and the storage items were saved. When the bag was taken out, the ground rolled and the body disappeared.
If you want to unravel the secret, the storage bag is the only clue left. Because it has lost its owner, just a burst of mana will cause the storage bag to spurt out a stream of light, containing more than ten different types of spiritual objects. Appear on the earth.
Among them were three jade vases, a waist tag, four jade slips, and two jade boxes sealed with talismans and seals. When the waist tag appeared, he had already determined the identity of the other party.
Each cultivating family has its own identity badge. The Zhao family in Pingyang County uses lotus as the family symbol. There is a lotus carved on the back of the waist badge and the three characters Zhao Mingzhan on the front.
"Zhao Mingzhan is the most powerful monk in the Zhao family. I don't know why he died here? If he can get the family through manipulation, he can still make profits from it." The plan soon came to mind.
In the world of cultivation, strength is king, and the development of a family is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat. You must seize every opportunity. The Zhao family's strength has been greatly damaged, so it is naturally a feast not to be missed.
All these thoughts kept rising in my mind, but when I saw clearly the contents of one of the jade slips, all calculations were thrown out of my mind.
"Secret land, Zhao Mingzhan and Zhao Xiangyang came here for the secret land? Why would a mere foundation-building family control the secret land?" Sun Mingsheng had a look of disbelief on his face.
There are two types of secret places. One is that a person with great supernatural power forcibly refines a space as a secret place; the other is a secret place that is created by nature. In addition, the secret places can be divided into different levels according to their size and the intensity of their spiritual power.
It's just that the news about these secret places has always been exclusive to each sect. Although the Sun family has inherited it for nearly a thousand years, its background is shallow and there are no relevant jade slips. All the sources of knowledge about the secret places are some that have been widely circulated. Just common sense.
However, it is clear about the precious Sun Mingsheng in the secret land. If the gap can be opened and a batch of precious elixirs can be obtained, both the family and individuals can share in sufficient profits.
"The combined efforts of Zhao Mingzhan and Zhao Xiangyang have not yet opened the entrance to the secret place. Naturally, I am unable to do so alone. Once we take action, we will definitely attract a large number of Seven-Star Spotted Bees to attack. It is better to join up with the two elders. We will make plans later." Sun Mingsheng is a decisive person.
Opening the entrance to the secret land by oneself can certainly capture all the spiritual objects in it. It can be expected that these spiritual objects will also become nutrients for the rapid improvement of his cultivation. Perhaps within the next few decades, he can use his own The cultivation base is quickly improved to the middle stage of foundation building.
But Sun Mingsheng has never done this. On the one hand, he is unable to do so. On the other hand, he has always grown up in the family, so he is naturally willing to share it with the family.
The only question currently in front of me is that I don’t know where to find the two family elders. Since the last battle with the Red Snake, there has been no relevant information. It is not even known whether Sun Changfeng and Sun Shengyuan have reunited.
However, as time passed, the fight between the monsters and the monks, after a climax stage, in which each suffered considerable damage, re-entered a relatively stable stage.
After four Golden Elixir monks from the Beast Control Sect joined forces to fight against the third-level monster, both parties have returned to the pre-war state and can freely enter and leave the Beast Control Mountain Range.
After years of fighting, the monks also established three or five relatively stable strongholds in the Beast Control Mountain Range.
The main force comes from the large number of casual cultivators. Each relatively stable stronghold is dominated by three or five foundation-building period monks, supplemented by as few as a hundred or as many as hundreds of Qi-refining period monks. Successfully Hold on under the counterattacks of rounds of monsters.
Both the Beast Control Sect and other families are supportive of these casual cultivators who have established strongholds.
On the one hand, the establishment of a stronghold can provide better services for the monks who hunt monsters in the Beast Control Mountain Range. On the other hand, it can also serve as an early warning in case of changes.
If it can successfully gain a foothold, it may not be able to become a brand new family or sect after hundreds of years of development.
"If the two family elders are still stationed in the Beast Controlling Mountains, they will most likely be stationed in these strongholds. If they have left, they will return to the Beast Control City." Sun Mingsheng already had a rough idea in his mind. judgment.
He must join up with the two family elders in the shortest possible time. As long as the queen bee is not damaged, the Seven-Star Spotted Bee has a strong recovery ability.
The previous losses can take anywhere from a few months to a year to return to peak condition. If the delay is too long, the strength of the Seven-Star Spotted Bee faced will also increase accordingly.
Sun Mingsheng erased all the bee corpses and traces of the battle around him, returned to a normal state, and ensured that he would not attract the attention of others before leaving.
This time, the goal was quite clear. He went straight to the strongholds at different locations to find traces of the two family elders one by one.
These strongholds are basically based on spiritual mountains, and with the increase in monks entering and leaving the Beast Control Mountain Range, each place seems to be quite lively.
A large number of shops have begun to operate, selling some spiritual objects with obvious consumption, such as talismans, spiritual weapons, elixirs, etc., and purchasing various spiritual objects produced in the Yushou Mountains. In most cases, It's bartering.
Sun Mingsheng's only purpose is to find traces of the two family elders, so naturally he will not pay too much attention to this.
It was not until the third stronghold located on the periphery that traces of Sun Shengyuan were discovered at a small auction. Under his leadership, they reunited with Sun Changfeng. Only then did we have an idea of the losses of the family monks in this battle. A general understanding.
Except for the three foundation-building monks, the fifty mid- to late-stage qi-training monks who were traveling with them were basically all lost, and only three or five lucky ones survived.
