Chapter 380 The Changes of Fire Phoenix
After Long Feng finished speaking, just like before, he directly swept Song Qingming into his huge wings, and then turned into a gust of wind and left here directly.
Song Qingming, who was sitting on Long Feng, was not the first time to follow Long Feng to the depths of the Fuyun Mountains. Knowing that it would take some time to reach his destination, he took out a few spiritual stones and held them in his hands, closing the door. Eye began to slowly restore his own mana.
This time, after Song Qingming said goodbye to Fang Wuqian and others, the purpose of going deep into the Fuyun Mountains again was actually to find Long Feng, the demon king he had dealt with before.
But he didn't expect that he would encounter three men in red and stare at him on the road. Song Qingming, who was hiding on the hill at that time, knew that if he chose to fight head-on, he might not be a match for the three of them. In desperation, Song Qingming could only use the contact feather Huo Feng left for him on the way to escape in advance, hoping to use Long Feng, the demon king, to help him solve this dilemma.
When Song Qingming arrived at the old place he had made an appointment with Long Feng, his mana was almost exhausted. Fortunately, Long Feng arrived in time and had already arrived there before him. Otherwise, if he had arrived too late, It's hard to say whether Song Qingming can escape from the man in red this time.
Although Long Feng sometimes spoke unkindly to Song Qingming, he still did not let Song Qingming down at the critical moment.
This time, he not only saved Song Qingming, but also helped him kill several demon cultivators who had targeted him for some reason. Long Feng had also helped Song Qingming solve a major hidden danger.
Thinking of this, Song Qingming felt that the ore materials he brought this time were really not in vain, and it was not in vain that Song Qingming and the entire Song family spent so much time collecting these rare spiritual objects.
However, when Song Qingming came to the Fuyun Mountains to look for Longfeng this time, he didn't expect that he could see the fire phoenix. When he thought of the noble figure dressed in fiery red, a helpless smile slowly appeared on Song Qingming's face.
After building the foundation, he and the Huang family went deep into the Fuyun Mountains to collect herbs. As a result, the unlucky Song Qingming fell into the hands of Huofeng.
Later, although Song Qingming was forced to do a lot of hard work for Huo Feng under the coercion of Huo Feng, he also got a lot of benefits from her, otherwise Song Qingming would not have been able to improve so quickly in the future. If he hadn't still had the thousand-year spiritual milk that Huofeng had given him back then, Song Qingming might not have had the chance to escape to the place agreed upon with Long Feng.
Although there is a natural conflict between the human monks and the demon clan for the survival resources of the immortal world, and it is impossible to live in harmony forever, but I can recognize a few demon friends like Huofeng and Longfeng, and I am not interested in Song Qingming's current situation. The benefits will still outweigh the disadvantages.
——
In a cave at the bottom of the mountain tens of thousands of miles away from the Fuyun Mountains, an old man wearing a large black robe was looking at a small wooden sign in his hand that had been broken into several pieces with an unhappy look on his face. .
This wooden sign has a very simple appearance, with some floating cloud-like patterns carved around it, and some black words written in the middle. Because the wooden sign has been severely broken, these words are also incomplete, making it difficult to see what is written. What is it holding?
Next to the old man in black robes, stood a middle-aged man with a red face and a long beard. The pressure exuded by this man had already exceeded the scope of a monk in the foundation building stage. He was obviously a man who had entered the pill formation stage. The golden elixir monk.
Although this big man is already a highly skilled Jindan monk, he always has a frowning and trembling expression in front of this black-robed old man. He does not dare to speak actively, as if he is afraid that he will accidentally speak. Saying the wrong thing will cause the displeasure of the old man in black robe in front of you.
"Have you found out where Qijun has been in the past few years?"
"Reporting to Master, the Ninth Junior Brother sent a message back a year ago. At that time, he was looking for traces of Senior Uncle Xiao in Weiguo in the east. Liu Kui, who was under the Second Senior Brother, was also with the Ninth Junior Brother.
I asked the second senior brother before I came here. Liu Kui's soul has also disappeared. It seems to be about the same time as the ninth junior brother was killed. The apprentice guessed that the two of them encountered some accident together, but they are too far apart and we still can't. Not sure. "
After hearing the red-faced man's detailed explanation, the old man in black robe walked back and forth in the cave a few times, then raised his head and said calmly:
"Fourth, go to Weiguo and find out who killed Qijun. By the way, see if that guy Xiao Huang is really hiding there. If you find out about him, hehe, don't alert him, just go directly Send this blood note back, and I will go and meet my good junior brother in person."
"Yes! Master, this disciple will leave immediately to defend the country." After receiving the order, the red-faced man took the black-robed old man and threw a blood-red talisman, and then respectfully stepped back.
When only the old man in black robe was left in the depths of the cave, he put the broken wooden sign in his hand in front of his eyes and said to himself with a sad face: "Qijun, my master has high hopes for you. How could Uncle Xiao do this, without any mercy, just kill him? After all, you are also my direct disciple. Did he not recognize you at all?
Junior Brother Xiao, hundreds of years have passed. Logically speaking, you should have formed a Nascent Soul a long time ago, but why haven't you taken the initiative to come to Senior Brother? Have you already let go of what happened back then? "
After the old man in black robe said something to himself, a strange flame suddenly appeared in his hand, and soon burned the wooden sign in his hand into a ball of ashes.
——
After following Long Feng as he traveled rapidly through the Fuyun Mountains for about two hours, Song Qingming's eyes finally lit up. Long Feng threw him out of his dark wings and landed on a high mountain shrouded in clouds and mist.
After taking a look, there were some familiar places in front of him. Song Qingming also knew that he had arrived at his destination, so he quickly stood up and tidied up his appearance.
Later, under the guidance of Long Feng, Song Qingming followed him to the underground cave where he had stayed. Here he also saw the fire that he had not seen for decades since leaving Taiyue Lake. phoenix.
As before, the fiery red figure still likes to lean on the big jade stone in the middle of the cave. However, the appearance and temperament of the fire phoenix seem to have changed compared to decades ago, and the whole person is more coquettish. She was a little more mature, which also made Song Qingming stand there for a moment when he saw her.
Over the years, although Song Qingming's cultivation has improved from the third level to the seventh level of Foundation Establishment, he still cannot see through Huofeng's true cultivation level. He can only vaguely feel that the coercion she exudes from time to time is still the same as the previous one. It was just as scary as before.
The gap between the Nascent Soul Demon King and a Foundation Establishment monk was too huge. Standing in front of the fire phoenix, Song Qingming felt as if he was standing in front of an unattainable mountain. It was too small.
"How dare you not know how to salute His Highness when you see him? You are so ignorant!" Not far from Huofeng's side, a big green bird was still in a daze after seeing Song Qingming's arrival. He was a little unhappy. He shouted loudly, as if he didn't like him very much as a human being.
The Qingluan Demon King who captured Song Qingming back then still looks the same as he did decades ago, and his cultivation doesn't seem to have changed much. Now that Song Qingming has reached the late stage of foundation building, he can feel a little bit of Qingluan. There is some gap between his strength and Longfeng Club.
"Your Highness, this junior is polite!" After hearing Qingluan's reminder, Song Qingming did not dare to say anything more and hurriedly stepped forward to bow to Huofeng respectfully and salute.
"Okay Qingluan, don't scare him. I still have some things to ask him here. Go and do your work first."
Seeing that the His Highness next to him didn't seem to care about the rudeness of the little human in front of him, Qingluan curled his lips and retreated from the cave with Long Feng in a depressed manner.
After pushing away Qingluan, Huofeng looked at Song Qingming calmly, then stood up and walked to the side of the cave, sitting down at a stone table. Song Qingming stood carefully not far from her. The place.
"Over the years, your cultivation has improved a lot. It seems that you have made some progress."
"Compared with His Highness and several seniors, the junior is not as talented as he is, so it is not easy for him to take a small step forward. If it weren't for the spiritual object that His Highness gave me back then, the junior would not have been able to break through to the late stage of foundation building so quickly. Your Highness I will never forget you, my dear brother."
Huo Feng glanced sideways at Song Qingming and said with a smile: "It seems that not only your cultivation has improved, but your verbal skills have also improved a lot. Even Long Feng praised you in front of me last time."
Hearing what Huofeng said, Song Qingming smiled slightly. He didn't expect that Longfeng was really sincere. He just made a fair deal with him, and he was able to get him to praise him in front of Huofeng. This did not surprise him. .
"Your Highness, I traveled a long way to buy these two bottles of spiritual wine. They are considered the best among us human monks. I originally planned to give them to you when I came here last time, but Senior Longfeng He said that you went to practice in seclusion and are not here. Fortunately, this trip was not in vain. If you have time, you must appreciate it." After lightly scratching his waist with his right hand, Song Qingming quickly left the store. Two white jade pots were taken out from the bag and placed respectfully on the stone table in front of Huo Feng.
After Huofeng squinted at the spirit wine on the table, he quickly shifted his gaze, as if he wasn't very interested in it.
"If you have anything to do here this time, just tell me directly. Don't beat around the bush when you come to me. Although my place is not as prosperous as your human race, it's not like you haven't seen anything before. Don't keep thinking about using this to please me."
Seeing that Huo Feng didn't seem to like the routine he was used to among human monks, Song Qingming slowly put away his smile, took out a cyan jade pendant from his body and placed it on the stone table.
"Your Highness, you accidentally obtained this thing a year ago, but because your cultivation level is too low, you have never been able to open the restriction above. This time, I came here just to ask Senior Long Feng for help to see if there is a way to help open it. "
After Huofeng glanced at the jade pendant on the table, his eyes suddenly lit up. He stretched out a crystal-like jade hand and gently took the jade pendant in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully.
"This object seems to be a space magic weapon. Logically speaking, only Golden Core cultivators in your human race can use it. How did you get it?"
Faced with Huofeng's confused inquiry, Song Qingming took a deep breath and quickly poured out the words he had prepared on the way here.
"It seems to be a coincidence. I actually got this jade pendant from the corpse of a monk in the Qi Refining Stage. As for how he got it and why it was on him, I'm not very clear."
After hearing Song Qingming's answer, Huofeng stared at his eyes calmly for a while, then suddenly turned his face and said calmly: "Longfeng is not good at magic circle restraints. If you go to him, he probably won't be able to help you. "
"Senior Longfeng can't even open it? So what can you do, Your Highness? As long as the restrictions above can be lifted, I am willing to dedicate half of the spiritual objects inside to Your Highness."
This time Song Qingming came to Longfeng with this jade pendant. He originally wanted to see if he could open it and see if he could dig out some good things from it, which he could use to exchange for the resources he would need in the future. , as soon as Song Qingming heard what Huofeng said, he became anxious.
"My trip is not in vain!" If even Huofeng, the Yuanying Demon King, can't do anything next, then Song Qingming will really have no choice but to give up opening it completely before he can form the elixir.
"Haha! Is it half a spiritual object? You are very good at calculating. You yourself said you don't know the origin of this object. This means that you don't know what is inside. What if it is empty? My efforts are not in vain." After Huofeng finished speaking, he placed the jade pendant back on the stone table and began to tap on the table with his slender fingers.
Seeing what Huofeng said, Song Qingming was relieved. It seemed that Huofeng did have a way to open this space magic weapon, but Song Qingming had to pay some price to convince her.
Song Qingming lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then slowly raised his head and said: "Since I got to know and followed His Highness, I have benefited a lot from Domeng's care. Today, my cultivation has improved so fast. How dare I forget that Your Highness has given me such a good fortune?" Thank you. If you have any orders, please dispatch them as soon as possible. Don’t treat me like an outsider.”
"Well! It's best if you think like this. Although I occasionally need your help with something, I don't like to force others to make things difficult. If you don't want to, you can just say it now, and I will think of other ways. ." Huo Feng said with a smile on his face.
"Haha! Your Highness is joking. I'm glad that I have the opportunity to help you. It's not too late. Why wouldn't I be reluctant?"
"Okay then! I'll keep this thing for now, and you can come and pick it up tomorrow!"
After getting the answer he wanted, Huofeng waved his hand and put away the cyan jade pendant on the table, and the two bottles of spiritual wine that Song Qingming had given him disappeared.
