Chapter 174 Collecting Medicine
Huang family, Taiyuan Mountain.
This is the best spiritual vein in the entire Qinghe County. After thousands of years of management by the Huang family, now within a radius of dozens of miles of the mountain, there are densely populated people singing and dancing, and it is like a paradise on earth.
On this day, a green sword light suddenly came from the east side. When the mortals at the foot of the mountain saw this scene, they thought it was an immortal from their own mountain. They stopped what they were doing and knelt down on the ground to worship devoutly.
"It is indeed the ancestral land of the Huang family that has been in business for thousands of years. The number of mortals here is enough to rival Qinghefang." Looking at the endless villages and towns below, Song Qingming, who was riding a flying sword, couldn't help but sigh.
There are nearly 300,000 mortals living in more than a dozen small towns at the foot of Taiyuan Mountain. Almost all of these people are of the blood of the Huang family. They can provide the Huang family with two or three children with spiritual roots every year. Compared with the Song family, For such a newly rising Foundation-building family, Taiyuan Mountain's thousand-year heritage is difficult for them to match in a short period of time.
As soon as he came out of seclusion, his sixth uncle Song Changfeng handed him a letter from the Huang family. Only then did Song Qingming know that the Huang family had invited him to meet at Taiyuan Mountain five days ago. After a few words with Song Changfeng, Came here in a hurry.
Under the guidance of the monks from the Huang family at the foot of the mountain, Song Qingming quickly arrived at the top of Taiyuan Mountain. Several monks from the Huang family who had been waiting for him quickly came up to him after seeing Song Qingming.
Song Qingming stepped forward and cupped his hands and said: "I have been practicing in seclusion these past few days. I didn't see the letter that came in time. I kept several fellow Taoists waiting for a long time. I really feel guilty and hope that Haihan will do it!"
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter! I didn't expect that I haven't seen you for half a year, and my Taoist friend Song has improved again. It's really gratifying."
Huang Shengyue, with a smile on her face, stepped forward to say hello to Song Qingming, then pointed to an old man beside her and introduced: "Fellow Taoist Song, this is my nineteenth uncle. He has joined the Xiaoyao Sect in his early years. , I came back specifically to help this time.”
After hearing this, Song Qingming hurriedly stepped forward to say hello to the old man. Only then did he discover unexpectedly that this seemingly ordinary old man was actually a late-stage foundation-building monk with advanced cultivation skills just like Huang Shengxin. He couldn't help but be suspicious of the Huang family's I gained some new insights into my strength.
The old man's name is Huang Chengding. He is the same generation as Huang Chengliang in the Huang family tree, and the foundation has been established for more than a hundred years.
Huang Chengding joined the Xiaoyao Sect when he was a teenager and rarely returned to Qinghe County. Song Qingming, a monk born and raised in Qinghe County, had never heard that the Huang family had such a powerful foundation-building master in the Xiaoyao Sect.
Now that everyone had arrived, Huang Shengxin, the head of the Huang family, coughed lightly and quickly took out a silver flying boat from his body, loaded it with everyone and set off directly to the north.
The flying boat is a flying magic weapon that can carry multiple monks. It needs to be controlled by monks at the foundation level or above. The second-level flying boat like the one used by Huang Shengxin can usually only carry about ten people. If it is controlled by a golden elixir monk It is normal for a third-level flying boat to have hundreds of people inside.
Standing on Huang Shengxin's flying boat, feeling that it was three minutes faster than flying with his own sword, Song Qingming couldn't help but feel a hint of envy in his heart. When he had the opportunity in the future, he would definitely get a magical weapon like this. With this, you can greatly speed up your escape when encountering danger.
However, spiritual objects like flying boats are much more expensive than ordinary second-level magic weapons. Any second-level flying boat requires 2,000 spiritual stones to purchase, which is almost as much as a second-level high-grade magic weapon. The price of the magic weapon is so high that ordinary people cannot afford such a thing.
On this trip, the Huang family did not bring any Qi-refining stage monks with them. Except for one Huang family Qi-refining stage monk who had discovered the bead of elixir in the first place, who was responsible for guiding the way, the rest were all Foundation-building monks.
The Huang family is very well prepared for the third level of the Pearl this time. The three foundation-building monks of the Huang family, Huang Shengxin who is on the ninth level of foundation building, Huang Chengliang who is on the fifth level of foundation building, and Huang Shengyue who is on the fourth level of foundation building, are already very strong. Together with Huang Chengding who is on the seventh level of foundation building and Song Qingming who has just broken through to the second level of foundation building, it is more than enough to deal with the two monsters in the late stage of foundation building.
If nothing unexpected happens on this trip, it should be a sure shot to achieve the goal. The only thing that makes Song Qingming a little worried is that Huang Shengxin, the head of the Huang family, from the first meeting, Song Qingming felt that he seemed to have been injured not long ago. He has just recovered. I wonder if he was injured while fighting for the elixir with the two monsters a year ago.
Everyone flew north for two days. After passing through Pingyang County, they soon entered the Fuyun Mountains. Along the way, everyone took turns driving the flying boat without stopping at all. After five days of long journey, they came here. We arrived at our destination, beside a high mountain covered with all kinds of weeds.
Huang Shengxin and Huang Shengyue had already been here once before and knew the location of the monsters on the mountain. In order not to alarm them first, the group, under the command of Huang Shengxin, put away the mountain when they were still more than ten miles away. After getting off the flying boat, we quietly approached this spiritual mountain on foot.
Along the way, everyone on the flying boat had repeatedly discussed the battle, and finally planned to divide the troops into two groups. They would quietly approach from the front as bait, and lure out the two late-stage foundation-building wolf monsters on the mountain first, and then The other group of monks took advantage of the second-level wolf demon to be lured out, quietly entered the mountain from the side, took the opportunity to get the bead of elixir, and then went to join the rest of the people.
After deciding on the strategy, several people divided the work. Huang Shengxin and Huang Chengding, two masters in the late stage of foundation building, were responsible for luring the enemy. The remaining three, Huang Chengliang, Huang Shengyue and Song Qingming, took the opportunity to pick the elixir.
After Huang Shengxin and the others set off, Song Qingming and others used breath-condensing techniques, carefully controlled the spiritual energy in their bodies, and lurked aside to wait slowly.
Unexpectedly, after a while, Huang Shengxin and the others flew back empty-handed, without seeing any trace of the monster behind them.
"Strange! I don't know what happened on the mountain. Not a single monster was seen. The same thing happened where we encountered the monster last time."
"Is it possible that someone has already arrived first?" Upon hearing Huang Shengxin's words, everyone showed a look of surprise.
Huang Shengxin shook his head and said: "It's hard to say, and I haven't seen many signs of fighting. I don't know if this group of wolf demons has migrated. Anyway, let's let Sirui take us to the mountains to have a look. , I don’t know if the third-level elixir is still there.”
Hearing this, the Qi Refining monk who was hiding behind everyone and was the first to discover this third-level elixir quickly stepped forward and nodded.
A group of six people, led by the monk in the Qi Refining Stage, quickly arrived at a pool on a high mountain. Sure enough, here, everyone saw a half-foot-tall elixir that exuded a trace of spiritual light. This was exactly They have longed for the third-level skylight flower.
"It's really lucky that those wolf demons didn't destroy this bead elixir at all."
After Huang Shengxin stepped forward and carefully picked the pearl elixir, a strange voice suddenly sounded from several people.
"Are these little guys wandering around outside for a long time just for this pearl elixir?"
