Chapter 504: The Avenue of Immortality, the Star Conference (Big Chapter)
Seeing Song Qingming looking at him, Chu Fengping showed a trace of regret on his face and said softly: "Junior Brother Song doesn't know something. I have some third-level low-grade elixirs in my body now. The only one you know about is the White Dew Pill." , I had directly refined it two years ago.
If I'm not wrong, you should have one left there. This old monster Mo gave out so many good things in exchange for this thing. This is a good opportunity. Junior brother, you should try to send a message quickly, but don't let others snatch it. First. "
Upon seeing this, Song Qingming immediately nodded slightly and directly cast a spell to Old Monster Mo on the stage to send a secret message that only he could hear.
Song Qingming had already taken one pill of "White Dew Pill" before, and the remaining pill had no great effect on him. The reason why he brought this pill with him when he came to Wu State this time was actually because he had already wanted to see if it could be used in the country. Here are some other spiritual things.
In addition to Song Qingming, there were five or six people at the scene who had also sent transmissions to Old Monster Mo. After hearing these transmissions, there was no change in Old Monster's face until the transmissions sent by Song Qingming entered his ears. In the middle, he slowly raised his head and looked at where everyone in Xiaoyao Sect was.
"Who is Brother Daoist Song? Please come up and have a detailed chat with me."
Hearing what Old Monster Mo said, Song Qingming was also filled with joy. He quickly stood up and quickly came to Old Monster Mo's side while everyone was looking at him.
"Friend Daoist Mo, please be polite!"
After lightly glancing at Song Qingming, Old Monster Mo waved his hand and cast a spell to release a circular barrier, isolating Song Qingming and himself from the people sitting outside.
At this kind of exchange meeting, although most of them are people they know, in order to prevent themselves from being noticed by others when they go out, most monks will try to be as concealed as possible when trading valuable spiritual objects.
"Fellow Daoist Song, please show me the Bailu Pill you just transmitted. As long as the quality of the pill is good, you can choose two of these spiritual objects to take away."
Hearing what Old Monster Mo said, Song Qingming lightly touched the jade pendant on his waist with his left hand, took out a purple wooden box, and threw it directly to Old Monster Mo in front of him.
After a moment, Old Monster Mo, who confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the elixir in the box, nodded slightly to Song Qingming, put the "Bai Lu Dan" directly into his bag, then pointed at the many spiritual objects in front of him and chuckled: " If you want something, just say it directly. I’ll remind you in advance that you can’t regret it after you’ve made your choice!”
Song Qingming, who had been carefully observing Old Monster Mo, saw that he had confirmed that there was nothing wrong with his spiritual objects, so he felt relieved and turned his attention to the seven or eight spiritual objects next to him.
Among the seven or eight spiritual objects that Old Monster Mo took out, they were all in the third-middle or lower-grade quality. The most valuable among them was a third-middle-grade flying sword magic weapon.
As expected by Old Monster Mo, Song Qingming stepped forward and decisively picked out the most valuable flying sword magic weapon among the many spiritual objects.
The value of this third-level mid-grade flying sword alone is close to 20,000 spirit stones, which is not much lower than the "Bailu Pill" that Song Qingming took out. No matter which spiritual object he chooses next, for Song Qingming, this price is The transaction will definitely not be lost.
After Song Qingming hesitated for a moment, he did not directly choose the higher-value third-level low-grade defensive magic weapon. Instead, he directly picked a third-level mid-grade defensive talisman that seemed to have good effects.
The defensive power of the "Five Elements Divine Light Mirror", the natal magic weapon that Song Qingming cultivated, has exceeded that of ordinary third-level low-grade defensive magic weapons. For Song Qingming, one more defensive magic weapon will not really increase its usefulness in the fight.
A third-level mid-grade defensive magic talisman is worth almost eight thousand spirit stones. Although the value is slightly worse than the third-level low-grade defensive magic weapon, it can help you easily block a powerful blow from a mid-stage golden elixir monk at any time. This is useful for For the current Song Qingming, it is still more important.
Song Qingming has always wanted to equip himself with two high-level defensive talismans for emergencies since he formed the elixir. However, he suffered from the fact that his level of talisman making had not exceeded the third level, and he was unable to draw such talismans.
In the past few years, Xiaoyao Sect had to deal with the turmoil of monsters, so there were no such spiritual objects in the Shanggong Pavilion. It was not until after the turmoil of monsters that Song Qingming used some spiritual objects in Li Wutong's hands to get a third-level low-grade one. Defense charms are used for self-defense.
This time, Song Qingming was willing to directly exchange for a third-level mid-grade defensive talisman, even if he suffered some losses on the spiritual stone.
Seeing that Song Qingming actually chose a lower third-level mid-grade defensive talisman behind him, Old Monster Mo showed a hint of surprise in his eyes, and then asked, "Have you already chosen it, fellow Taoist?"
"Yes, I only want these two spiritual objects. Fellow Daoist Mo can put away the other spiritual objects."
Seeing Song Qingming nodding to confirm his choice, Old Monster Mo's expression slowly returned to calm, and he waved to put away the other spiritual objects in front of him.
"Wait a minute, Fellow Daoist Mo! I have something else to ask Fellow Daoist Mo." When Old Monster Mo was about to remove the barrier around the two of them, Song Qingming suddenly interrupted him.
"Fellow Daoist Song, you have experienced this stuff just now. Do you still have any questions?" Hearing that Song Qingming still had questions, Old Monster Mo frowned and turned around to reply.
Seeing that Old Monster Mo had some misunderstanding, Song Qingming hurriedly raised his hand and said with a smile: "Fellow Taoist Mo has misunderstood. I just learned that you have traveled to other immortal worlds before, so I have something to ask you. This transaction has nothing to do with it, so please don’t worry, fellow Taoist.”
"Seeing as you didn't want to take advantage just now, you can tell me what you are asking first. As for whether I can answer you, haha, it depends on whether I know what you are asking."
"It's natural. I just want to ask fellow Taoist Mo about a place. This place may be in another world of cultivating immortals. I wonder if fellow Taoist Mo has heard of it during his travels."
After a while, as Old Monster Mo removed the barrier between the two of them, Song Qingming bowed his hand to him, stepped back and sat down in his seat.
After Old Monster Mo and Song Qingming completed the transaction, they did not choose to stay and continue to participate in the discussion and exchange activities that were to be held next. After directly saying hello to Cheng Bufan, they left the hall and walked down the Dengyun Building.
"Junior Brother Song, how are you? What good things did you just get?" As soon as Song Qingming sat back down, a message came to his ears. It was Chu who had originally persuaded him to trade with Old Monster Mo. The wind is calm.
Seeing the curious looks of several senior brothers, Song Qingming directly informed everyone of the spiritual object he had just chosen.
Hearing his choice, the Xiaoyao Sect members were not too surprised. They also knew the skills Song Qingming practiced, and naturally knew the role of his natal magic weapon "Five Elements Divine Light Mirror".
Choosing a higher-level defensive talisman, for Song Qingming, a golden elixir monk who has practiced Taoism for hundreds of years, although he will lose some spiritual stones, it will add a powerful life-saving means, which is also difficult to measure completely with spiritual stones. of.
The reason why high-level spiritual talismans above level three are not as readily available in the market as second-level spiritual talismans is mainly because the materials required to draw such high-level spiritual talismans are very difficult to obtain, and a third-level demon king is required. The fur and spiritual herbs that are more than a thousand years old are used as the main materials. These spiritual objects are not something that a sect can easily find in a short time.
Even if there is a third-level mid-level talisman maker like Li Wutong in the Xiaoyao Sect, he does not always have materials that can be used to draw high-level talismans. It has been more than 200 years since Li Wutong broke through to the third level of talisman making. Now, the total of the third-level spiritual talismans he drew is only about twenty, and each of the many Jindan elders in the Xiaoyao Sect can only get two at most.
This is not only the case in Weiguo, which has relatively scarce spiritual resources, but also in dozens of countries around the Fuyun Mountains. Even in a large country with relatively abundant resources like Wu, the situation is not much better. Except for the third-level and above spiritual talismans in Qixingfang, In addition to some auxiliary talismans with limited functions that can be purchased in the market, other talismans with greater functions are also difficult to obtain with spirit stones here.
After the exchange meeting, under the organization of Cheng Bufan, many Jindan monks present began to exchange ideas with each other in groups.
During this period, Song Qingming not only got to know many monks of the same level outside the Wei Kingdom, but also gained many different cultivation experiences by exchanging cultivation experiences with everyone. Participating in such gatherings of monks of the same level to discuss Taoism, he was often used to Song Qingming, who is practicing alone, can also be of great help.
This exchange meeting on Taoism lasted from the evening to the end of the next morning. Many Jindan monks who came to participate in the meeting dispersed and left with some reluctance.
When Song Qingming returned to his residence, he first took out the flying sword magic weapon that he had exchanged from Old Monster Mo before, and looked at it carefully. The name of this flying sword magic weapon was "Mo Bai". It was made by Old Monster himself who found the materials in his early years and asked someone to refine it. made.
The quality of the "Mobai Sword" is higher than the "Green Willow Sword" that Song Qingming is currently refining. It is already a third-level middle-grade magic weapon. After obtaining this magic weapon, Song Qingming's future fighting ability will be improved immediately.
Because he has practiced the "Five Elements Shield Light Needle", Song Qingming can also use this magical power to increase the power of the magic weapon in his hand at any time during the battle. With the help of the magic weapon "Ink White Sword", Song Qingming has now broken through the second level of the golden elixir. , if we face an opponent like the White Lion Demon King who doesn't have any powerful magical powers in the early stage of the golden elixir, we should be able to win easily.
After putting away the "Mo Bai Sword", Song Qingming sat down and rested for a while, then took out a piece of paper with the two characters "Mo Xuan" written on it. This was the old monster Mo who traded with Song Qingming at the exchange meeting. His real name was also written by him personally to Song Qingming.
At the exchange meeting, when he heard Li Wutong say that this old monster Mo had left the Fuyun Mountains and traveled around for two hundred years, Song Qingming immediately thought that this person must be well-informed and know many places in the world of immortality.
When he finally completed the transaction with Old Monster Mo, Song Qingming casually asked him about the two place names he had obtained in the "Jade Mysterious Scripture".
"Yuxuan Mountain, Taixu Palace."
But it is a pity that although Old Monster Mo has traveled to many places in Donghuang Xianzhou in recent years, he has also never heard of the two place names mentioned by Song Qingming. At the last moment, he may have been kind to Song Qingming. Impressed, Old Monster Mo still picked up a pen and wrote him a note.
He claimed that there was a place in the world of immortal cultivation in Donghuang Kingdom, where he might be able to get the information that Song Qingming wanted to know. If Song Qingming really wanted to visit there in the future, he could bring this note in his hand, and it might be of some help to Song Qingming then.
Song Qingming was very grateful for Old Monster Mo's kindness. Ever since he obtained these two place names in the "Jade Mysterious Scripture", Song Qingming had also inquired from the side with several elders of Xiaoyao Sect who were familiar with Jindan. With one exception none of them had heard of this place.
Even Chen Xuanxin, who likes to travel and meet fellow Taoists from all walks of life, has no impression of the two place names given by Song Qingming. According to what they said, it is estimated that these two places either do not exist at all, or they may not exist at all. Not in Donghuang Immortal State, but far away in the world of immortality in other continents.
The world where Song Qingming lives is called the Jade Star World.
In addition to the continent of Donghuang Xianzhou where the Fuyun Mountains are located, there are other large land and islands in the Jade Star Realm. There are nine larger immortal realms in total. Because the distances between them are very far, the immortal realms in each state are mutually exclusive. It is almost difficult to directly communicate with each other, and they can only rely on giant interstate teleportation arrays to connect with each other.
There are several cross-state teleportation arrays that can be directly connected to the two immortal realms of Donghuangxianzhou and the nearest Fenglinghai area and Nanyue Xianzhou. From time to time, monks from other immortality realms will come to Donghuangxian via teleportation arrays. Traveling around the state.
However, such large-scale long-distance teleportation arrays in Donghuang Xianzhou are basically controlled by several large sects in Donghuang Kingdom. If you want to use them once, you need to consume a lot of spiritual stones. Generally, monks in the realm of Qi refining and foundation building basically do not It may be affordable. Only high-level monks above the Golden Core realm can ride the teleportation array to travel between several realms of cultivation.
The reason why Song Qingming is so interested in these two places is mainly because of the incomplete "Yu Xuan Jing" in his hand. Since he accidentally obtained this set of exercises in Guiyunfang more than a hundred years ago, with the Song Qingming's cultivation gradually increased, and he became more and more aware of the mystery of this set of techniques.
He was able to become a golden elixir monk today. Apart from the personal opportunities he encountered during his practice over the years, the most helpful thing to Song Qingming was the "Jade Mysterious Sutra".
Even though he no longer has the follow-up techniques of the golden elixir stage of the "Jade Mysterious Sutra" in his hands, Song Qingming has now switched to the "Five Elements Xuan Gang Jue", but the magical powers that he has been practicing in the "Jade Mysterious Sutra" for many years are now no longer available. It can still help him.
It's just that without the follow-up skills of the Golden Elixir Stage, the current effect of "Jade Mystic Sutra" will definitely become more and more limited in the future as Song Qingming's cultivation level improves. This also makes Song Qingming eager to get out now. Looking for the answer to the last few words left for him in the Yuxuan Sutra.
After entering Taoism for a hundred years, Song Qingming has gradually improved his cultivation from a small Qi refining monk with ordinary qualifications to successfully building foundations, and now he has entered the golden elixir avenue. The goals Song Qingming has pursued in his heart for more than a hundred years have also been somewhat Not a small change.
When he was still in the Qi refining stage, a small Qi refining stage bandit cultivator in Yingchao Ridge almost killed Song Qingming. At that time, Song Qingming only wanted to be able to protect himself more. He has the power to allow himself to walk in this dangerous world of cultivating immortals.
After the foundation was established, Song Qingming suddenly became the person who carried all the hopes for the development of the entire family. His goal was no longer limited to protecting himself, but to find ways to protect the entire family from developing and growing stronger. Even though Song Qingming struggled to do so and suffered repeated attacks. Oddly enough, the goal in his heart has always been very firm over the years.
After more than a hundred years of hard work by generations of monks in Funiu Mountain, the Song family has now been promoted to the Golden Elixir Immortal Clan. There are five foundation-building monks in the family alone, and they are still developing steadily step by step. They are no longer That cultivating family was so weak that it could only rely on Song Qingming alone.
Song Qingming has now become what others call the ancestor of the Golden Pill. If his eyes are only set on a small place like Jiangling County of Weiguo, then Song Qingming's current cultivation level is already enough for him to enjoy a comfortable life for hundreds of years. There is no need to go out and take risks to look for opportunities to become enlightened.
But with the improvement of his cultivation level, Song Qingming's Taoist heart and goals have gradually begun to shift to his own Taoism.
Ever since he was a child, his spiritual roots were detected by his family and he was taken to Funiu Mountain to practice cultivation. Like most children who have just embarked on the path of cultivating immortals, Song Qingming also longed for the colorful world outside and dreamed of becoming an immortal who could fly into the sky and escape from the earth. Walk carefree between heaven and earth.
Even though Song Qingming is now a golden elixir cultivator, his lifespan is only five or six hundred years. The world of immortality is so big, and there are so many beautiful scenery in the world that Song Qingming wants to see. He doesn't want to spend his whole life cultivating, only to end up with nothing but Being able to stay in a small place like Weiguo.
Even though he is still far away from this step now, before he knew it, Song Qingming's Taoist heart had begun to turn towards the legendary Avenue of Immortality.
Since my spiritual root talent was far inferior to others, but I could still surpass those talented monks to successfully form elixirs, then no matter how difficult the road to immortality was, I would definitely have the opportunity to touch it.
All living beings have spirits. Whether they are human monks or demon beasts, even those who practice evil arts, as long as they can finally achieve the Tao, they will have the opportunity to ascend to the upper world. The Jade Star Realm has a history of hundreds of thousands of years. In the long river, not all the monks who can ascend to the upper world and enjoy immortality are geniuses.
After participating in the exchange meeting at Dengyun Tower, Song Qingming used the "Bailu Pill" in his hand to exchange for two spiritual objects that were very useful to him at once, and he felt very happy.
It was a pity that Song Qingming did not encounter such a good opportunity in the next ten days or so. He participated in an exchange meeting among monks of the same level, so he could only go shopping alone in Qixingfang and purchase some spiritual objects unique to the Wu Kingdom.
——
More than half a month later, as a few crisp bells rang in Fangshi, the mountain protection formation in Qixingfang immediately started to activate. The Star Conference that everyone in Fangshi had been waiting for for a long time finally started.
This Star Conference is a trade fair where the Star Sect of the Wu Kingdom, as the host, has invited monks from more than a dozen neighboring countries to Qixingfang to participate. There will also be many casual cultivators hanging around the Wu Kingdom. Come.
The Star Conference will be held for a total of ten days. The first seven days are the time for free trading in the market. In order to attract the monks who participate in the Star Conference, all the shops in the Seven Star Forum will be specially released. Some rare and precious materials are rarely seen in the market. , and they also brought many special products and spiritual items from other surrounding countries.
Since the Star Sect released news of the conference a few months ago, tens of thousands of monks have come to Seven Star Square. With the appearance of many rare and precious spiritual objects, the entire city has become lively.
Whether they are casual cultivators or monks from other countries, as long as they hand over ten spiritual stones at the gate of Fangshi, they can enter and buy and sell the spiritual objects they need. During this period, all the spiritual objects sold in the shops and stalls in Qixingfang , there will be supervision by law enforcement monks arranged by the Star Gate to put an end to all cheating and abduction in the conference.
During the Star Conference, a Nascent Soul Supreme Elder from the Star Sect will also be stationed in the Seven Star Square. Anyone who dares to cause trouble during this period will be directly expelled from the city. In serious cases, they may even face The Star Gate punishes severely.
Holding such a star conference, the Star Sect can earn tens of thousands of spirit stones in a day just by charging these monks to enter the market. Plus the income earned by these shops in the market, if everything goes well, the Star Sect can rely on hosting such a conference. At the conference, you can easily earn hundreds of thousands of spiritual stones.
However, the Star Sect has invited so many monks from surrounding sects to come to support them, so naturally they have to bring out a lot of good things. Otherwise, if so many high-level monks come here, they will only come back empty-handed, and the next Star Conference will definitely not be successful. There will be such a good effect.
In the past few days of the trade fair, the "Guyang Pavilion" opened by the Xiaoyao Sect was also very busy. Most of the low-level disciples of the Xiaoyao Sect were arranged to go out to purchase the low-level spiritual objects needed by the sect, and were prepared to wait until the end of the conference to transport them. Return to the sect.
Yao Qianshu and other Xiaoyao Sect Jindan elders have no interest in such low-level spiritual creatures. They have always stayed in Guyang Pavilion and basically did not go out to show their faces. Only Song Qingming was unlucky and was caught by Bai Yuxian. We went out for a walk together.
Fortunately, Song Qingming also had some experience this time, and was able to deal with the active-minded Senior Sister Bai at any time. The two of them walked around the market, but unexpectedly they were attracted by Bai Yu, who was extremely lucky. Immortal, I picked up a buried level 3 array disk in a small stall.
The seller of this item was an elderly Qi Refining Cultivator, because this third-level array plate was already somewhat worn out, and part of it was damaged. The spiritual energy had long been lost, and it looked like an inconspicuous high-level material.
Even an accomplished foundation-building monk, as long as he is not a high-level formation master, would find it difficult to recognize the value of this item when he holds it in his hand. It is impossible for a low-level Qi-refining monk like the stall owner to know about this formation. the true value of the disk.
