Chapter 510 The Secret Method of Corpse Puppet, Wen Tianyang (joint chapter)
"This Ghost King's inner elixir is condensed from the pure Yin Qi between heaven and earth. Using it as the main material and the secret method of making a corpse puppet, you can refine a corpse puppet at the golden elixir stage, which is rare in the world of immortal cultivation. What a good thing. Junior Brother Song has been lucky enough to get such a precious thing just a few days after he came back."
Song Qingming smiled and nodded: "Haha! What Senior Brother Chen said is true. I didn't expect to encounter such a thing as soon as I came back. This time is also a bit dangerous. I didn't expect that there was such a big hidden danger hidden near the family. It almost caused a big mess.
Fortunately, that ghost king had just broken through the Golden Core not long ago, and his strength was average, so I successfully defeated him. Otherwise, I might not have been able to sit here and chat with my senior brother.
Senior brother mentioned this thing to me this time, is it because of this ghost pill? "
Chen Xuanxin paused after hearing this and then said: "Junior brother Song is right. I came here this time because of the ghost pill in your hand. But junior brother, don't get me wrong. I have no interest in this ghost pill. I just want it." Use something closely related to this ghost elixir in your hand to exchange it with your junior brother for a spiritual object."
"Oh! I don't know what is related to this ghost pill. Please tell me in detail first!" Song Qingming suddenly became interested when Chen Xuanxin said that he had something useful for the ghost pill in his hand.
"Junior Brother Song also knows that ghost elixir can be refined into a golden elixir corpse puppet. When I was traveling many years ago, I happened to get a volume of secret techniques for refining this golden elixir corpse puppet. I came here just to use this thing. Exchange a spiritual object with Junior Brother Song." After Chen Xuanxin finished speaking, he took out a blue scroll and threw it directly to Song Qingming.
Song Qingming took the scroll with a calm expression, opened it, and found that just as Chen Xuanxin said, it was a secret technique for refining corpse puppets. Song Qingming glanced briefly and found that in addition to the required main material ghost elixir, In addition to being relatively difficult to find, other materials are not difficult for Song Qingming to gather now.
Ever since he got this ghost pill, Song Qingming had not thought about how to use it. Unexpectedly, just a few days later, Chen Xuanxin came to his door and gave him such a big gift, which really surprised Song Qingming. .
"Senior Brother Chen, give me the secret method of refining the corpse puppet. What do you want in exchange for it?" Song Qingming glanced at the cyan scroll and immediately sent it back to Chen Xuanxin.
Chen Xuanxin put away the scroll and said directly: "I want to exchange this item with Junior Brother Song for some Millennium Spiritual Milk. I don't need a lot, only four or five drops are enough. I hope Junior Brother can fulfill one or two of them."
Hearing Chen Xuanxin mention the "Thousand-Year Spiritual Milk", Song Qingming's calm expression changed slightly. Not many people knew that he had the "Thousand-Year Spiritual Milk" in his hand. Song Qingming didn't understand where Chen Xuanxin knew about it. of.
"Junior Brother Song, don't think too much. You may not know that my relationship with Taoist Brother Xianyun has always been relatively good. I also knew from his mouth that Junior Brother exchanged spiritual objects with him back then. Don't worry, there is no one except me. No one in the sect probably knew about this either.
To be honest, this thing is extremely important to me now. If Junior Brother Song really still has it with him, please give me some in exchange. Chen will definitely remember this favor. "After Chen Xuanxin finished speaking, he stood up, cupped his hands, and looked at Song Qingming expectantly.
"Sure enough, Li Xianyun really told this matter." Song Qingming couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart. When he fought against the monsters in Zixingfang, Song Qingming used a few drops of "Millennium Spiritual Milk" to exchange with Li Xianyun. A demon king's spirit is used to break through the "Soul-Eating Jue" technique that he has practiced.
Although Song Qingming did not tell Li Xianyun that he still had the "Millennium Spiritual Milk" after completing the transaction, Li Xianyun, a golden elixir cultivator who travels all year round, must have a strong ability to observe words and emotions. Li Xianyun should have guessed that Song Qingming still had this thing on him at that time.
When he heard Chen Xuanxin talking about "Millennium Spiritual Milk", Song Qingming immediately thought of Li Xianyun at first, but he also didn't expect that Li Xianyun and Chen Xuanxin would have such a good relationship, and even Song Qingming's secret deal with him was unknown. told the other party.
"Senior Brother Chen is serious. I got this thing unintentionally in the Yunwu Mountains back then. I have been able to cultivate to this point over the years. In fact, most of it is due to this opportunity. Today, Senior Brother Chen came to me specially for this thing. Come on, I can’t disappoint you, so please keep this thing away.”
After hesitating for a moment, Song Qingming agreed to Chen Xuanxin, took out a small porcelain bottle containing a few drops of "Millennium Spiritual Milk" from his body and handed it to him.
"Junior Brother Song is indeed a cheerful person. I would like to thank Junior Brother Chen here!" Chen Xuanxin took the porcelain bottle, opened it and took a look at it. She immediately looked happy and bowed directly, then put away the volume of "The Secret of the Corpse Puppet" that she had just put away. "Shu" was delivered to Song Qingming's hands.
"Except for what I have in my hands now, I really don't have a few drops of the Thousand-Year Spirit Milk left in my hands. I would like to ask my brother not to mention this matter to anyone else, otherwise other brothers will come to visit me in the future. You're going to embarrass me." After completing the transaction, Song Qingming said to Chen Xuanxin with an expression on his face.
Facing Song Qingming's instructions, Chen Xuan smiled knowingly and said, "Don't worry, Junior Brother. Senior Brother, I am not a talkative person. Even if Senior Brother, the leader, asks me, I will not reveal you casually."
Although Song Qingming still had half a bottle of the "Millennium Spiritual Milk" on his body, he really didn't want too many people to know that he had this spiritual object, so as not to cause too much unnecessary trouble to him in the future.
When making a deal with Li Xianyun that day, Song Qingming was a little too anxious. He thought that Li Xianyun had a dull personality, didn't like to communicate with others, and was not a talkative person. That's why he was careless and let Chen Xuanxin suffer today. Come to the door.
The spiritual object "Thousand-Year Spiritual Milk", although it only has a few drops and is not very valuable, is a rare spiritual object that is useful to Jindan monks. Chen Xuanxin came to exchange this object with Song Qingming today, and it is 80% that it is for a breakthrough. Used by realm.
Song Qingming only has half a bottle of "Millennium Spiritual Milk" left in his hand. He may have to save some in the future. Naturally, he doesn't want to exchange this thing with others casually. If it weren't for the "Corpse Puppet" that Chen Xuanxin took out today, "Secret Technique" really impressed him, and Song Qingming would not take out the "Millennium Spiritual Milk" so easily.
If he could really refine the ghost elixir in his hand into a golden elixir corpse puppet as recorded in this volume of secrets, then Song Qingming's deal today would not only be cost-effective, but it could also be said to be a huge advantage. .
Corpse puppets refined using secret methods are not comparable to those of ordinary puppet beasts of the same level. Not only are they powerful in combat, the corpse puppets in the Golden Core stage can also use a magic weapon to fight like ordinary Golden Core monks. When used properly, this weapon is almost It is a spiritual object that can be of great help to Song Qingming now.
If he can successfully obtain a Golden Core Corpse Puppet, Song Qingming's strength will be difficult for him to meet among the early Golden Core monks. Even if he encounters weak mid-Jin Core monks in the future, he may not be without one. The power of war.
"Junior Brother Song, since the business and private matters have been settled, I will say goodbye and go back. When Junior Brother Song arrives at Guyang Mountain another day, you must remember to come and sit in my cave."
"Senior Brother Chen, walk slowly!"
After the two walked out of the meeting hall, Chen Xuanxin and Song Qingming, who looked happy, said goodbye and soon turned into a golden light and left Funiu Mountain.
Half a month later, Xiaoyao Zong's General Affairs Hall directly sent a large flying boat, carrying hundreds of monks and a large amount of supplies to Qinghefang. These people were sent by the Zongmen's General Affairs Hall to participate in the plan to mine the "Yin Fire Stone" vein. of monks.
Under the arrangements of the Song family, a team of nearly 200 monks took advantage of the Xiaoyao Sect's large flying boat to directly attack Yunwu Mountain the next day, and soon occupied the mountain range where the Ghost Cultivation Cave is located. , and renamed this originally nameless mountain range "Yinfeng Ridge".
This time, the Song family also summoned many monks to come together. Under the command of Song Qingming, everyone quickly swept away the monsters entrenched around "Yinfeng Ridge" and began to cultivate spiritual veins on the mountain.
Although there are many monsters on the side of Yunwu Mountain close to Weiguo, no demon king above level three has appeared. Although "Yinfeng Ridge" is already located deep in Yunwu Mountain, there are only four or five foundation-building monks here. , there is still no big danger.
After the spiritual veins are cultivated in a few months, and then a second-level or higher mountain protection formation is arranged on the "Yinfeng Ridge", and with a few foundation-building monks guarding here all year round, basically there will be no big problems. Feel free to mine the Yin Fire Stone vein below.
This time, Xiaoyao Zong's General Affairs Hall went to Qinghefang and sent two foundation-building monks and more than a hundred Qi-refining monks. These people were all going to be stationed here for a long time at the "Yinfeng Ridge" mine.
On the Song family side, Song Qingming arranged for Song Yuanli to bring dozens of monks to help. Because the Song family would need to provide many monks to mine the ore in the future, Song Qingming directly arranged for the family to start recruiting in Qinghefang. The casual cultivators will wait until the spiritual veins in "Yinfeng Ridge" improve, and then send them directly there to help with mining.
After being busy for the past few months, the spiritual energy of the second-level spiritual veins cultivated in Yinfengling finally stabilized, and finally got on the right track. He started mining ores, and Song Qingming finally had some free time.
On this day, Song Qingming was sitting in his cave. After carefully setting up a formation restriction on the spot, he took out a "soul-gathering bowl" and released the weak green light trapped inside.
"Fellow Taoist, I beg. Please." Before the ghost cultivator could finish speaking intermittently, Song Qingming directly cast a spell to cover his soul with a golden talisman. Then Song Qingming closed his eyes and started. Control your own consciousness and enter directly into this ghost cultivator.
After Song Qingming formed the elixir, he learned many advanced spells that can be practiced by the elixir-forming monks from Xiaoyao Sect's Shanggong Pavilion. Among them was the "Secret Technique of Soul Searching". After casting the spell, the caster can directly enter the opponent's soul, and quickly Obtain the memory information hidden in the other party's sea of consciousness.
This type of soul-searching secret method is very common in the world of immortality. Almost every monk who has cultivated to the golden elixir stage can do it. However, when this technique is used, it must be faced with a monk with a lower cultivation level than himself. The success rate will be higher. For If a monk of the same level casts a spell, once the opponent's soul is too powerful, it will be difficult to succeed. Not only that, the caster may also suffer immediate backlash and damage his own consciousness.
When Song Qingming caught the ghost cultivator who sneaked up on him before, he learned from the ghost cultivator that the other party was once a Golden Core cultivator after all, and that the soul might not be weaker than the current Song Qingming.
Because of this, after leaving the Ghost Cultivation Cave that day, Song Qingming did not rush to search for its soul immediately. Instead, he put it into the "Soul Gathering Bowl" and refined it for several months. By now, his soul was already weak. , and then began to use the secret soul-searching technique on him.
No matter whether it is successful or not, once the "Secret Soul Searching Technique" is used, it will cause confusion in the memory of the opponent's soul, and the user has only one chance to obtain the opponent's complete memory. For this reason, Song Qingming is also very careful when casting the spell.
After his spiritual consciousness entered the ghost cultivator's soul, it didn't take long for Song Qingming to successfully find the ghost cultivator's memories hidden in his sea of consciousness, and began to look through them patiently.
As expected, as Song Qingming expected, Song Changze was sucked into the ancient formation that day by this ghost cultivator, and the restrictions on him were also caused by this ghost cultivator.
The reason why the other party is like this is that he wants to use a secret method to seize the body and rebirth Song Changze's body. Unfortunately, the requirements for seizing the body are very complicated and cannot be prepared casually in a day or two. Before this ghost cultivator had time to use it, Song Qingming and the others were killed. Came to the door.
After looking through the previous memories related to Song Changze, Song Qingming's consciousness rested for a moment, and then he went back to explore the deep memories of this ghost cultivator, and gradually learned some of the true origins of this ghost cultivator.
The memory I saw earlier is actually similar to what the ghost cultivator himself described. The ghost cultivator's name was "Wen Tianyang", and he was indeed a golden elixir cultivator before his death.
In his previous life, his physical body was injured for unknown reasons, and he had no choice but to escape to that cave for refuge. However, he was still seriously injured and fell into the cave. Before his soul dissipated, Wen Tianyang finally used a secret method to actively transform into Guixiu Liu. In the human world, he began to practice the ghost way.
After escaping into the ghost realm, Wen Tianyang retained most of his intelligence and memory because he took the initiative to transform into a ghost cultivator, but he was different from those ghost cultivators in the Yin Spirit Land.
After that, Wen Tianyang has been hiding in that Yin Spirit Land, practicing with the group of ghost cultivators. There is also competition among the ghost cultivators. Wen Tianyang, who has just switched to the ghost path, had a hard time at the beginning.
Later, when his cultivation level was higher, Wen Tianyang also recovered some memories and used a set of ancient cultivation formations in his storage bag to hide the cave where his body fell. Once he encountered the threat of other ghost cultivators, , he hid in that cave,
After about a thousand years of this, Wen Tianyang slowly reached the peak of foundation building again, and was only one step away from condensing the ghost elixir.
Just as Song Qingming continued to search forward, he suddenly saw something familiar to him from the memory fragments of Wen Tianyang's previous life. Song Qingming couldn't help but be so surprised that he almost shouted!
"It can't be such a coincidence!"
What Song Qingming saw was a small green jade box with a very exquisite appearance. This object was seen by Wen Tianyang shortly before his death in his previous life. Although he only glanced at it lightly, Song Qingming still recognized the jade box at a glance. , very similar to a jade box he found after being attacked in Yunwu Mountain more than a hundred years ago.
It was precisely because he accidentally obtained the jade box that Song Qingming discovered the "remnant picture" treasure that he had carried with him for many years in the jade box.
But it was a pity that when Song Qingming searched Wen Tianyang's memory again, he could no longer find any scenes related to the jade box or the "remnant picture". This also made it impossible for him to completely confirm that he was now looking at Wen Tianyang's memory. Is this jade box that I got the same thing as the one I got in Yunwu Mountain?
Because after being transformed into a ghost cultivator, Wen Tianyang suddenly lost most of his past life memories. Song Qingming was unable to find out why he died in an accident or what his specific identity was in his previous life.
Only from some scattered memory fragments, I saw some scenes of Wen Tianyang's previous life practice. I could barely tell that this person did not look like a monk from Fuyun Mountain. He came to Yunwu Mountain to find someone. This thing, but I don’t know why, finally fell here again.
It was not until two hours later that Song Qingming ended the soul search with a solemn expression and cast a spell to put away his consciousness.
After searching in Wen Tianyang's memory for so long, Song Qingming also saw most of the useful memories. In addition to knowing a lot of expected things, it also brought a lot of doubts to himself.
After seeing this jade box from Wen Tianyang's memory, Song Qingming was very excited and could not calm down for a long time. The appearance of the two jade boxes was almost exactly the same, and they both appeared in the Yunwu Mountain. Although they were separated by thousands of years, they were indeed There's a good chance it's the same thing.
"Could it be that this jade box was what this guy came to Yunwu Mountain to look for?"
Although he vaguely felt that the two things were closely related, the information Song Qingming could get now was still too little. Even if the jade box Wen Tianyang saw was the "broken" one that fell into his hands a thousand years later, "Picture", Song Qingming still knew nothing about the origin of this "remnant picture" and Wen Tianyang's purpose of looking for it.
Just a moment after Song Qingming finished casting the spell, Wen Tianyang's soul, who was imprisoned by the magic talisman, suddenly became restless. As the effect of the magic talisman slowly dissipated, the memory damage after the soul search gradually made him cry out in pain.
Seeing this, Song Qingming did not hesitate too much and directly cast a spell to release a golden light, which dispersed Wen Tianyang's spirit and ended his pain.
For people like him who took the initiative to practice the ghost way, their souls were not tolerated by reincarnation and could not be reincarnated, so they quickly dissipated directly between heaven and earth.
After dealing with Wen Tianyang's soul, Song Qingming took out the storage bag he left behind and found a black jade token among the mess.
Because thousands of years have passed, the spiritual objects in Wen Tianyang's storage bag, because he is in the land of Yin spirits, have basically been corroded by the Yin energy in the cave and become useless. The remaining ones are still useful, except for the ones he arranged at the door. In addition to the ancient cultivation formation, there are dozens of mid-grade spiritual stones and the black jade tablet in Song Qingming's hand.
Apart from the fact that the material of this object is somewhat special and is not afraid of Yin Qi corrosion, it has no other functions. The front is engraved with Wen Tianyang's name, and the back is engraved with some simple patterns and a black dragon. It looks like the identity token of a large sect. Card.
After opening Wen Tianyang's storage bag and discovering this object, Song Qingming had been looking at the black token for many days, but he still couldn't see any clues from it. He didn't know where Wen Tianyang came from.
Just as Song Qingming was pondering the black token in his hand in the cave, a transmission note suddenly flew in from outside the cave and landed next to him.
Seeing that his thoughts were suddenly interrupted, Song Qingming also showed a hint of displeasure on his face. Ever since Song Qingming entered the golden elixir stage and was in seclusion, few people dared to come to him if something happened at this time.
After Song Qingming opened the transmission note and saw the content inside, he realized that it was sent to him by Song Yuanfang. However, what was written inside was something Song Qingming didn't expect. His face also changed from the initial displeasure to There was a hint of surprise, then he quickly packed up, got up and walked out of his cave.
——
On the top of Tuoyun Mountain, Fengyang De was practicing in a cave with his eyes closed.
This cave is very rich in spiritual energy. It was the place where Chen Jinliang practiced. More than ten years ago, before the monster turmoil began, Chen Jinliang, the number one casual cultivator in the Wei Kingdom, had actually already sat in this cave. .
At that time, in order to stabilize the situation on the mountain and cope with the upcoming monster turmoil, Fengyangde and the others on Tuoyun Mountain chose to hastily bury Chen Jinliang’s bones and blocked the news of Patriarch Chen’s death from the outside. Let’s talk about Xiaoyao Sect.
It was not until the monster turmoil ended that Fengyangde and the others organized a grand funeral for their master on Tuoyun Mountain.
Although he had only formed a fake elixir and his own cultivation speed increased very slowly, Fengyang De still did not neglect his daily cultivation. When he had nothing to do, he basically practiced in seclusion in his cave.
Fengyangde, who was meditating and practicing, suddenly felt a fluctuation coming from the restriction at the entrance of the cave. He put away his skills and got up and went outside the cave, only to find that the person coming was his senior brother Liang Wenxu.
After seeing Fengyang De, Liang Wenxu, who was already a little old and frail, hurriedly handed him a letter in his hand.
"Fourth Junior Brother, another letter has come from the Ma family, inviting you to discuss matters at Luoyun Mountain. This time it is a letter written by Ma Hongshan himself, asking you to go to the appointment with him by name."
Because both of them are disciples officially accepted by Patriarch Chen, and Liang Wenxu started earlier, even though Fengyang De has formed elixirs now, he still calls Liang Wenxu his senior brother.
