Chapter 596: Nine Palaces Meteor Escape, Celebration Preaching (Complete Chapter)
That day, after Song Qingming entered the third floor of "Tongtian Pavilion" and met Xuantian, Song Qingming accepted his test and obtained the "Tongtian Ten Thousand Spirits Jue".
According to Xuantian, this technique was created by the original owner of the "Tongtian Tower" and has been placed in the tower to select people to inherit it for tens of thousands of years.
If you want to pass the test and get the inheritance left by this senior, you must practice the "Tongtian Ten Thousand Spirits Jue" to the late Nascent Soul stage.
Two months ago, after Song Qingming completed refining the "Cui Ling True Water", he began to try to practice this set of exercises.
Although he had already expected that this test would not be that easy, when Song Qingming began to practice the "Tongtian Ten Thousand Spirits Art", he was still shocked by this somewhat weird technique.
Unlike other ordinary exercises that Song Qingming had practiced, when practicing the "Tongtian Ten Thousand Spirits Jue", Song Qingming followed the designated acupoints in the exercise and used the magic power in his body to absorb the surrounding spiritual energy.
It was okay at first, and I didn't feel anything too unusual.
But as time went by, Song Qingming slowly felt that the magic power in his body was getting heavier and heavier, and the speed of its operation also began to slow down.
Although Song Qingming felt some pressure at first because the magic power in his body was too heavy, he was still able to continue practicing.
After about half an hour, the magic power in Song Qingming's body was like a huge boulder, completely blocked in his meridians and acupoints, making it difficult to continue to flow. The pressure on Song Qingming's body slowly reached its limit.
At this time, Song Qingming's mana that had been accumulated in his body could no longer flow out in time, but the spiritual energy around his body was still entering his body quickly through several spiritual points on Song Qingming's body.
More and more mana is blocked and accumulated in the body, and all the meridians and spiritual points have reached their limit. Continuing to practice forcefully will inevitably cause the meridians and spiritual points to be broken, so they can only give up voluntarily and stop the flow of mana in the body.
More than two months have passed since he started practicing the "Tongtian Ten Thousand Spirit Art".
If it were an ordinary skill, Song Qingming, who had already become a golden elixir cultivator, would have already practiced the Qi Refining Stage Qigong to almost perfection and was ready to enter the foundation-building realm of the Qigong.
But because every time he tried to practice the "Tongtian Ten Thousand Spirit Art", Song Qing could only persist for more than half an hour at most. After two months, the technique had not yet entered the late stage of Qi refining. It was indeed somewhat beyond Song Qingming. It was expected before.
"This technique has only reached the qi refining stage, but it has already made me, a golden elixir cultivator, feel a little uncomfortable. It is really hard to imagine what it will be like after practicing to the Nascent Soul stage.
It is also strange that for thousands of years, so many talented Yuanying seniors have not been able to successfully practice this technique to the late Yuanying stage. Sure enough, the inheritance test left by an ascended monk will not be so easy to complete. .
Although the cultivation speed is not as fast as I imagined, fortunately, after practicing this technique, the magic power in my body can become much stronger, which is indeed very mysterious. "
After muttering to himself, Song Qingming slowly put away his magic power and stood up.
From the very beginning when he accepted the test taught by Xuantian, Song Qingming knew that his talent was limited and that it would be difficult for him to complete this test, so he did not have high expectations for this matter.
However, practicing the "Tongtian Ten Thousand Spirits Jue" can also make the magic power in his body much stronger. It is indeed of some use to Song Qingming, and it is worth his time to practice.
As for whether he can successfully practice the "Tongtian Ten Thousand Spirits Jue" to the late stage of Jindan three hundred years later, when the "Tongtian Tower" is opened next time, and pass Xuantian's test to obtain the follow-up technique.
Now Song Qingming really doesn't have much confidence in this matter, so he can only take one step at a time and wait and see.
After sitting aside and resting for a while, Song Qingming took out a bamboo slip with the martial arts inscribed on it from his storage instrument, opened it and looked at it carefully.
The bamboo slip held in Song Qingming's hand was a secret technique called "Nine Palaces of Meteor Escape". It was one of the three volumes of secret techniques that he selected and brought out from the third floor of "Tongtian Pavilion".
This is a very rare escape technique that can be performed in conjunction with the Nine Palaces Array.
Practicing the secret technique of "Nine Palace Meteor Escape" can not only improve the monk's own escape speed, but after the technique is completed, it can even allow a late-stage Jindan monk to have an escape speed comparable to that of a Nian Ying monk in a short period of time.
When Song Qingming saw this secret technique, he was immediately attracted to it. Without much thought, he quickly chose this secret technique.
He himself majored in the art of formations, so practicing the secret technique of "Nine Palace Meteor Escape" would naturally be much easier than others.
In addition to this secret technique, after practice, it can greatly improve the monk's escape speed and greatly enhance his life-saving means. This is indeed what Song Qingming wants very much now.
If he can master the secret technique of "Nine Palaces of Meteor Escape" as soon as possible, and if he encounters a late-stage Jindan strongman like Ma Wuchen in the future, even if he is no match for the opponent and wants to escape, there shouldn't be any big problem. No need to be as embarrassed as before.
In addition to the secret technique of "Nine Palace Meteor Escape", Song Qingming chose two other bamboo slips on the third floor of "Tongtian Pavilion" at that time. They were a Nascent Soul stage skill and a skill that could be used at a critical moment. The secret of life-saving substitutes.
Although Song Qingming's current cultivation level is only the third level of the Golden Core, he has no plans to switch to a new cultivation method. The reason why he chose the Nascent Soul stage cultivation method is actually more of a plan for his own breakthrough to the Nascent Soul in the future.
As for the other secret technique of substituting for life, although it is also a very useful secret technique, he needs to find a relatively rare spiritual object to assist him in normal cultivation, so he can only put it aside for the time being.
Therefore, Song Qingming currently has no use for the cultivation techniques on the other two bamboo slips except for the "Nine Palaces Meteor Escape" in his hand.
These cultivation techniques brought from Xuantian, as well as the complete cultivation experience of the Nascent Soul cultivator that Song Qingming obtained when he passed the first level test of the "Tongtian Tower", are also the huge gains Song Qingming obtained from his trip to the "Tongtian Tower".
Although these techniques and cultivation experiences cannot be traded and passed on to others, and their value cannot be measured and estimated with spirit stones, their importance to Song Qingming is definitely not less than the other spiritual objects he obtained before.
After Song Qingming had been in seclusion in the cave for a month, Funiushan Mountain began to become lively.
The foundation-building celebration held by the Song family this time was obviously more grand than before. Many people who received the invitation had already rushed to Funiushan Mountain four or five days in advance.
Fortunately, the Song family was well prepared this time. They recalled many cultivators from outside early, arranged the celebration venue a few days in advance, and prepared all kinds of spiritual objects needed early.
After receiving the specific date of the celebration, Song Qingyu and Huang Siyuan rushed back to Funiushan Mountain more than half a month in advance to help Song Yuanfang and others prepare for the celebration.
On the day of the celebration, hundreds of cultivators from all over the place had come to Funiushan Mountain.
Most of them were vassals of the Song family, family cultivators from Qinghe and Pingyang counties, and there were also many casual cultivators in these two places.
On Tuoyun Mountain, after Lin Yutang and his fellow disciples learned about the Song family's celebration, they also traveled thousands of miles to Funiushan Mountain and presented their carefully prepared gifts.
Knowing that there would be many cultivators coming, Song Yuanli had already divided the celebration location into two places in advance.
Those Qi-refining cultivators who came to join in the fun were basically arranged to sit a little further away. Only guests with a cultivation level above the foundation-building stage could sit near the venue.
Sitting in the main venue, Song Qingming looked at the dozens of foundation-building cultivators who were already sitting below, and his face showed a bit of satisfaction.
It is not an easy thing to get so many foundation-building cultivators to gather together. This also indirectly proves that the influence of the Song family is now much stronger than when it was just promoted to the Golden Core Immortal Clan.
In addition to Song Qingming, the Golden Core Patriarch, the Song family now has seven foundation-building cultivators and two hundred Qi-refining cultivators, and there are more than a dozen foundation-building families under the Song family.
Although the family background is not as good as the Ma family of Tiexianbao at its peak and Tuoyun Mountain when Chen Jinliang was still there, the current Song family is almost qualified as a Jindan force.
Just as everyone was greeting each other at the celebration venue, another golden light rushed over from the distant horizon outside Funiu Mountain.
A moment later, a white flying boat landed above the venue, and more than a dozen cultivators dressed in Xiaoyao Sect costumes fell from above. Among them, three Jindan cultivators emitting a thin layer of golden light were Chu Fengping, Zhao Menglian and Xu Ziyan, who were very familiar to Song Qingming.
When the many foundation-building cultivators present saw these Xiaoyao Sect Jindan elders appear, their faces immediately changed and they stood up and bowed to the three of them respectfully.
After reaching the Jindan stage, in the world of cultivating immortals, they are already considered high-level cultivators with a high status. Naturally, they rarely deal with low-level cultivators.
Among the many cultivators who came to participate in the celebration, some of them saw so many Jindan cultivators appear at the same time for the first time, and they couldn't help showing some excitement on their faces.
"Senior Sister Zhao, Senior Brother Chu, Junior Sister Xu!"
After seeing Chu Fengping and Xu Ziyan, Song Qingming immediately stood up and went forward to greet them with a happy face, and bowed slightly to them.
"Congratulations, Junior Brother Song, another junior in your family has successfully built a foundation."
After several people bowed to Song Qingming in return, Zhao Menglian and Xu Ziyan took out the gifts they had prepared and smiled and presented them to Song Qingming.
Chu Fengping's hand flashed with spiritual light, and he immediately took out a purple porcelain bottle and a square wooden box from his body, and said to Song Qingming with a smile:
"Unfortunately, Senior Brother Jin had something to deal with and couldn't come here, so he asked me to help bring a gift. I hope Junior Brother Song won't mind."
"Alas! It's not a big deal. The senior brothers and sisters have taken the trouble to come here, which has given me a great face for Funiu Mountain. Why are you so polite? Come with me and rest for a while."
Seeing the exquisite spiritual objects that several people took out as gifts, Song Qingming didn't hesitate to be polite to them. He accepted them generously and handed them to Song Yuanfang on the side.
Except for Song Qingming and Song Qingyu who successfully built their foundation in the early years, the rest of the Song family went to hold such foundation-building celebrations when they built their foundations.
Although the scale of the celebrations varies, and the cultivators who come to give gifts are also uneven every time, the Song family still pays more attention to interpersonal relationships.
No matter whether they are Jindan cultivators like Chu Fengping or the others, or the cultivating families sitting below, or those casual cultivators who come to join in the fun.
The Song family will arrange for someone to take inventory of each gift sent by each person, register it and store it in the family's golden pavilion. In the future, when the other party has some happy events to hold such a celebration, the Song family will also arrange for those with suitable status to be held. People, go and return the gift.
After Chu Fengping and others sat down, and seeing that everyone was almost there, Song Qingming arranged for Song Yuanfang to take Song Yuanhao to the stage together, and said a few pleasant words in front of many guests.
At the same time, the mortal monks of the Song family who were in charge of the banquet below also slowly brought up various spiritual fruits, spiritual wines, and delicious spiritual foods that had been prepared.
Just when Song Yuanfang was about to announce that the banquet was about to begin, another cyan light flashed outside Funiu Mountain, speeding towards the celebration venue.
"Another Golden Core cultivator is here!" Seeing this escaping light that was clearly far superior to that of a Foundation Establishment cultivator, someone in the crowd below suddenly shouted excitedly.
Seeing the escaping light in the distance from far to near, Song Qingming's face was slightly surprised.
This time to hold the "Foundation Building Celebration" for Song Yuanhao, Song Qingming only invited several sect Jindan elders such as Zhao Mengli and others whom he was familiar with, and did not send invitations to Jindan monks from other places.
If other Jindan elders from the Xiaoyao Sect wanted to attend the celebration, they would definitely come with Zhao Mengli and the others. It was impossible that they would arrive here belatedly as the banquet was about to start at this time.
In front of everyone present, the cyan light landed on an open space covered with a red carpet in the middle of the celebration, and slowly revealed a slightly fat man in green clothes.
"Fellow Taoist Song, Mr. Zhang came here uninvited and asked for a glass of spiritual wine. I hope you won't be offended."
"Haha! It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Zhang. I really didn't expect you to come, but Song is really flattered. Please come forward and take a seat."
This golden elixir monk who came from afar was none other than Zhang Tieyang, the golden elixir companion whom Song Qingming and Zhao Mengli met halfway when they entered the "Tongtian Tower" together a year ago.
Although he and this person could be regarded as acquaintances in the "Tower of Babel", since he was thousands of miles away in the State of Lu, it was naturally impossible for Song Qingming to send him an invitation.
Seeing Zhang Tieyang coming to Funiu Mountain to attend the Song family's celebration, Song Qingming was indeed a little surprised.
After the two said hello, Zhang Tieyang followed Song Qingming to the seat above where several Jindan monks were sitting.
Fortunately, for this celebration, Song Qingming not only invited Chu Fengping and the other three Jindan monks, but also left two more empty seats and tables on the stage.
After seeing Zhang Tieyang approaching, Zhao Menglian and Chu Fengping immediately stood up and greeted each other with a smile.
"Fellow Daoist Song, I just happened to come to Weiguo a few days ago and learned about the happy event in Daoist friend's family. I came in a hurry and didn't prepare any carefully prepared gifts.
I bought this magic weapon in Yangshanfang yesterday and regard it as my congratulatory gift. I hope fellow Taoists don't dislike it. "
As soon as Zhang Tieyang finished speaking, a flash of light flashed in his hand, and he immediately produced a second-level medium-grade shield weapon of good quality and sent it to Song Qingming.
"It turns out to be a second-level medium-grade defensive magic weapon. What is the relationship between this senior and the Song family? He is so generous."
Seeing the shield weapon that Zhang Tieyang took out, many low-level monks sitting below showed a hint of envy in their eyes.
You know, a relatively high-quality second-level mid-grade defensive magic weapon in the market can be sold for about 1,500 spiritual stones.
So many spiritual stones may be nothing to a golden elixir monk, but to a monk who has just established a foundation, they are a considerable fortune.
Most of the monks who came to Funiu Mountain today to attend the celebration venue gave them ordinary spiritual objects worth dozens or one or two hundred spiritual stones as congratulatory gifts.
Larger foundation-building forces like Lin Yutang of Tuoyun Mountain, or the Huang Family of Qinghe County, and the Cao Family of Pingyang County will send slightly better congratulatory gifts, but they are basically spiritual objects of about 500 spiritual stones. .
Even Zhao Mengli and Chu Fengping, several golden elixir monks, had brought out less than a thousand spiritual stones before.
Zhang Tieyang suddenly sent such a valuable gift, and Song Qingming was slightly surprised when he saw it.
"You're welcome, Fellow Daoist Zhang. It's rare for Fellow Daoist to come to Funiu Mountain. I must have a few drinks today and don't go out with me."
However, although this gift was slightly more expensive than those given by others, it was still within the acceptable range of Song Qingming, so he did not refuse and accepted the magic weapon generously.
Hearing what Song Qingming said, Zhang Tieyang also immediately raised his hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, fellow Taoist Song, Zhang is a free and easy-going casual cultivator with nothing to worry about. How can we easily miss the opportunity to drink with several fellow Taoists."
After Zhang Tieyang took his seat, the celebration banquet officially began. Many monks present also began to exchange cups with each other, drink happily, and enjoy this rare moment of relaxation.
Although many places in the world of immortality are full of disputes and are full of various schemes and dangers, there will also be scenes like the one on Funiu Mountain now, where everyone is harmonious and sits together to share joy.
The way of cultivation is not only about fighting and killing, but it can also be helpful to everyone to sit down occasionally and talk about the world, exchange advice with each other, and talk about cultivation experiences.
Whether they are people who sit in the mountains doing ascetic practices or monks who like to take risks and look for opportunities, everyone wants nothing more than to be able to practice further and enjoy immortality in the future.
Everyone's practice methods may be different, but the goals are basically the same.
Song Qingming is organizing Song Yuanhao's foundation building ceremony this time. The reason why he invited so many high-level monks is also to give the low-level monks below a small opportunity.
Halfway through the banquet, Song Qingming walked up to the stage in person, imitating Patriarch Chen when he preached at Tuoyun Mountain, and taught all the monks present some of his own cultivation experience that he had practiced for many years.
However, this time, unlike Chen Jinliang, Song Qingming did not select or avoid some monks, but directly preached publicly in front of everyone on Funiu Mountain.
Because the cultivation levels of the monks present were uneven, Song Qingming did not explain a certain realm in depth. Instead, he started from the time when he entered Taoism at a young age and slowly talked about it before forming the elixir.
Especially when building the foundation, Song Qingming also shared with everyone some of the difficulties he faced and his response at that time.
Many of the monks who came to participate in the celebration did not know that Song Qingming would preach publicly here before coming to Funiu Mountain.
Seeing this scene, everyone's faces also showed a hint of surprise. They didn't expect that they would get unexpected gains by participating in the Song family's foundation celebration this time.
A Jindan monk said that for Qi refining and foundation-building monks like them, even if they can only absorb and understand a small part of it, it will be of great help to their future path.
This trip to Funiu Mountain was definitely a worthwhile trip for low-level monks like them, and they were full of rewards.
Not only Song Qingming, but also Chu Fengping and Zhang Tieyang also came forward to say a few words in the excitement of drinking.
Although Chu Fengping and the two did not talk as much as Song Qingming, they only mentioned a little bit about their previous cultivation experience, but it was also very rare for many low-level monks present.
It is very rare for people like them to see a golden elixir monk on weekdays, let alone be lucky enough to hear so many golden elixir monks taking turns preaching at one time.
Those monks who were unable to come to Funiu Mountain to participate in the celebration due to various reasons would definitely regret it if they found out later that several Jindan monks were preaching here today.
After several people finished preaching, Zhang Tieyang raised his wine glass and said with admiration to Song Qingming beside him: "When I came down, I had already heard in Yangshanfang that Taoist fellow Taoist has a reputation of always being kind to others.
I didn’t expect that Fellow Daoist Song could be so generous in teaching others. He was such an open-minded person. Zhang really admired this. "
After hearing what Zhang Tieyang said, Song Qingming quickly waved his hand and said: "Zhang Daoyou is a casual cultivator, and he should be the same as me, a person who has a hard time cultivating.
We are able to achieve what we have today because, in addition to our own hard work in cultivation, we have also received some favors from other seniors during our cultivation.
Today I can take this opportunity to preach and give these juniors some opportunities. It is just a cycle of cause and effect and passing on this grace. How dare you say this as a fellow Taoist. "(End of chapter)
