Chapter 597 Millennium Spiritual Beast Egg, Zhang Tieyang’s Thoughts (Complete Chapter)
Song Qingming's answer made Zhang Tieyang, who was holding the wine glass, stunned for a while before he slowly came back to his senses, nodded and said:
"Having said that, Taoist friend Song has only been practicing Taoism for more than a hundred years, and it is indeed rare to be able to experience it so far.
To be honest, I have been practicing for so many years, and I have often traveled around and dealt with many monks of all kinds, whether it was Qi refining, foundation building, or golden elixir monks like us.
It is indeed rare to be able to practice like fellow Daoist Song without forgetting his original intention for many years. Most people still keep to themselves and have no time to care about these irrelevant low-level monks' paths. "
Hearing what Zhang Tieyang said, Song Qingming and Chu Fengping also nodded slightly with silent faces.
What Zhang Tieyang said is indeed the norm in the world of cultivating immortals. Once their cultivation reaches the golden elixir realm like theirs, they are already considered high-level monks in the world of cultivating immortals.
As they stand at a higher level, their views on many things will indeed gradually become different.
Moreover, Jindan monks like Song Qingming are already considered to be the controllers of an area. They can arrange for other younger members of the family to do the following things, and there is no need for him to handle them personally.
In addition, once a Jindan monk practices in seclusion, it can take several years or even more than ten years. Except for those close to him, there is basically no need to go out of his way to contact other low-level monks.
Over time, in their hearts, they treat these low-level monks with low cultivation levels just like a Qi-refining monk who has entered the Taoist practice faces ordinary mortals, and naturally they don't care too much.
The banquet for this foundation building celebration lasted from the afternoon until the early morning of the next day, and then it was slowly over.
After personally saying goodbye to several familiar guests, Song Qingming invited Chu Fengping and several Jindan monks to come to the Song family meeting hall to have tea.
The rest of the trivial matters will be left to Song Yuanfang and the others to handle.
It was a rare opportunity for several Jindan cultivators to sit together, drink tea, and chat. Naturally, they did not forget to exchange their cultivation experiences with each other. This also benefited Song Qingyu, Huang Siyuan, and other Foundation Establishment cultivators who were qualified to come in to observe.
After chatting with everyone for a while, Song Qingming suddenly took out a yellow spirit animal egg slightly smaller than an egg from his body, placed it in front of everyone, and introduced it with a smile on his face:
"I accidentally got a spirit beast egg some time ago, and I never knew what it was. There are a lot of people today, and it just so happens that everyone can help me find out what this thing is, and whether there is still a way to hatch it."
This spirit beast egg was obtained by Song Qingming from the engraved white ball storage artifact before, but he still doesn't know what kind of spirit beast it is. (Sorry, I missed this when I wrote about the white ball magic weapon before. I added it later. Anyway, that’s what I got from there. Please forgive me for my oversight.)
Judging from the time of the death of the skeleton monk, this spirit beast egg has been in the spherical magic weapon for at least a thousand years.
It stands to reason that after such a long time, the spirit beast eggs that have not yet hatched should have lost their vitality and turned into a ball of ashes.
However, what surprised Song Qingming was that although the spiritual energy on this spiritual beast egg was very thin when he took it out, it did not completely lose its spiritual energy. It was obvious that the things inside were still alive.
In the past few months, Song Qingming also showed this spirit beast egg to many people for inspection.
As a result, both the several beast masters in the family and those casual cultivators from Tuoyunshan who were relatively familiar with spirit beasts, after seeing this spirit beast egg, apart from knowing that this item was of a high level, they did not see anything. The exact origin, let alone how to hatch this thing.
Song Qingming originally thought that when he had time in the future, he would go to Guyang Mountain and find a high-level beast master in the sect.
I happened to see a lot of high-level monks here today, and thinking that maybe someone knew about it, Song Qingming took out the spirit beast egg.
Seeing the yellow spirit beast egg in Song Qingming's hand, Chu Fengping and several other golden elixir monks took a look at it and shook their heads.
Finally, there was a woman in green clothes standing behind Zhao Fenglian. After taking a closer look, she seemed to have seen some clues. She cupped her hands to Song Qingming and said:
"Uncle Song, this spirit beast egg seems to have been around for a long time. This kind of spirit beast egg that can survive for a long time. If I read it correctly, it should be a snake-like spirit beast, and it seems to be of a different grade. It would be too low, at least it can be cultivated to the golden elixir stage.
However, my knowledge is not good, and I still can't determine its specific species, and I don't have much confidence that I can hatch it. Why don't I write down a method for Master Song, and you can try it first, maybe there is a way to hatch it. "
As soon as the woman in green shirt finished speaking, Zhao Fenglian nodded and said: "Nishan's beast control skills have reached the second level, and she is already considered the best beast control master in the sect. If even she is not sure, what will happen next?" Things are indeed a bit difficult.
Junior Brother Song might as well try Nishan's method first. If it doesn't work, you can go to Wu Kingdom to try your luck in the future. There are two third-level beast masters in the Star Sect, and they might be able to help you. "
"What Senior Sister Zhao said is that the left and right are just a rare thing, so there is no need to be so anxious. Let's wait until we have the chance to talk about it in the future!" Seeing this, Song Qingming also smiled and put away the spirit beast egg in his hand.
At first, Song Qingming just wanted to give it to everyone to try. He didn't have high expectations, so he didn't show too much disappointment when he couldn't get the answer.
This spirit beast egg was unexpectedly obtained. It would be best to have a way to hatch it. Spirit beast eggs that can be cultivated to the golden elixir realm can definitely be exchanged for some spirit stones if they are taken to the market or auction. .
Several Jindan monks present only glanced at the spirit beast eggs that Song Qingming took out, and then turned their gazes away.
In the Immortal Cultivation World of Fuyun Mountains, there is no large-scale sect that specializes in the way of controlling beasts. Even among Nascent Soul sects such as Xiaoyao Sect, the highest-level beast masters are only second-level top-grade ones. Golden elixir monks like them are very important in cultivating them. Basically, I have no interest in spiritual beasts.
After the woman in green shirt left Song Qingming a method of hatching spiritual beasts, seeing that time had almost passed, Zhao Mengli and the other three also stood up and said goodbye to Song Qingming, preparing to return to Guyang Mountain together.
"Junior Brother Song, it's getting late. I have to rush back to the sect, so I won't bother you too much here. I'll visit you another day when I have time."
Seeing this, Song Qingming hurriedly winked at Song Qingyu and asked her to ask someone to bring some jars of spiritual wine.
"Several senior brothers and sisters have come all the way to support my Song family. It's hard work. These jars of spiritual wine are all brewed by me. Please bring them back to have a taste."
"Oh! Just now at the banquet, I felt that the taste of this spirit wine was a bit unique. I didn't expect that it was brewed by Junior Brother Song himself. Then we will be able to enjoy more food in the future.
It's a pity that Junior Brother Chen was in a hurry and couldn't come, otherwise he, a good drinker, wouldn't miss such a fine wine. "
When Chu Fengping and the others saw this, they did not make peace with Song Qingming. They each accepted a jar of spiritual wine, and also brought a jar to Jin Ziyuan who did not come.
Not long after Song Qingming personally sent them out of the meeting hall, Chu Fengping suddenly heard a voice in his ear and called him aside alone.
In Song Qingming's confused eyes, Chu Fengping placed a soundproof shield around the two of them, and then asked Song Qingming expectantly:
"Junior Brother Song, I'm really a little ashamed. I have a small matter I want to ask you about this time. I hope Junior Brother won't dislike me for being abrupt."
Seeing that Chu Fengping was suddenly so polite, Song Qingming said calmly: "You and I have known each other for many years, so there is no need to be so polite. If you need help, Senior Brother Chu, please just speak up!"
Originally, although Jindan monks like Chu Fengping and others were invited by Song Qingming, it actually didn't matter whether they came to participate in the foundation building celebration held by the Song family in person. Like Jin Ziyuan, they could just send any disciples there. It's also okay to drop by and send a congratulatory gift.
The three golden elixir monks of Xiaoyao Sect came to participate in the celebration this time. Zhao Mengli was entrusted by Yao Qianshu to represent the sect. Xu Ziyan came because he had a good relationship with Song Qingming and had received some kindness from him. He gave the Song family so much face.
Chu Fengping's appearance together was indeed somewhat beyond the expectations of Song Qingming and everyone in the Song family.
At first, Song Qingming thought that Chu Fengping had just had some free time recently, so he came to Funiu Mountain with his Taoist companions. Unexpectedly, he had some purpose for his trip.
"Since Junior Brother Song said this, I won't be polite to you!"
After hearing this, Chu Fengping smiled and cupped his hands, and then slowly spoke out his other purpose of coming to Funiu Mountain this time to find Song Qingming.
Ever since everyone from the Xiaoyao Sect returned to the sect from the "Tongtian Tower" with many spiritual objects a year ago, Chu Fengping also immediately went to inquire about them one by one.
As a third-level mid-level alchemist, Chu Fengping naturally wanted to see if any of the people who went to the "Babel Tower" could bring out a third-level or higher elixir that could be used to make alchemy for him.
Although Zhao Mengli, Chen Xuanxin and others also brought out several third-level elixirs from the "Babel Tower", it was a pity that only one of them could be used by Chu Fengping.
The rest either don't have any elixir recipes, or they are of too good quality, and it would be too risky and not cost-effective to use them to make elixirs for him.
After some inquiring, Chu Fengping accidentally heard the news that Song Qingming might have a third-level spiritual object in his hand, which he should be able to use, so he followed Zhao Mengli and others to participate. The foundation building celebration of the Song family.
"Junior Brother Song, I happen to have a recipe for Blood Dragon Pill here. If you really get a blood dragon fruit of level three or above, you might as well consider it and cooperate with me to refine another batch of pills. This way, Can bring out the maximum benefit of this spiritual object.
Don't worry, it's still the same as last time. I will provide all the other auxiliary elixirs. No matter how many elixirs are produced, I will only take one as the cost of refining the elixirs. I will never take advantage of you. "
Seeing Chu Fengping's confident words, it was obvious that he had already set his sights on the third-level "Blood Dragon Fruit" on his body. Song Qingming also showed a hint of helplessness on his face.
In the "Babel Tower" that day, when Song Qingming came out of the depths of the cloud and thunder formation, although he did not say it to his face, he also got a level three or above "Blood Dragon Fruit" from it, but Zhao Mengli and others were sure of it. There is still some speculation.
After all, that level is so difficult that ordinary Jindan monks cannot enter at all. Song Qingming, who passed through the cloud and thunder formation, even if he insists that he did not get a third-level "Blood Dragon Fruit", others will not have it so easy. believable.
After all, we are all golden elixir monks who have been cultivating for many years. How can we believe your words so easily? It's just that everyone is embarrassed and can't directly ask how many pills Song Qingming got.
Although a third-level "Blood Dragon Fruit" is not low in value, it is only worth more than 10,000 spirit stones. They don't have to do this in the "Babel Tower" to arouse Song Qingming's disgust.
Seeing that Chu Fengping was obviously targeting him this time, Song Qingming hesitated for a moment and then directly admitted the matter.
"Senior Brother Chu, I brought out this third-level spiritual fruit from it. I originally wanted to wait until I break through the cultivation level in the future and then directly refine it. You have made me a little embarrassed." Song Qingming's face was a little embarrassed. , sighed.
When Chu Fengping saw this, he immediately spoke again:
"Although the effect of this Blood Dragon Pill on increasing mana is not as good as that of Junior Brother Song when you directly refine the Blood Dragon Fruit, as long as you can refine one more, you can use this pill to exchange for something else. It's a spiritual creature, and it can definitely help the junior brother even more.
Junior Brother Song, don't worry. I am now a third-level mid-level alchemist. I will refine a batch of third-level low-level elixirs. Not to mention I am absolutely sure, I still have 60-70% confidence. I will definitely not let you. Disappointed.
If you are lucky enough to refine one or two, haha! Maybe you'll even thank me later. "
"Since Senior Brother Chu is also thinking about me, let's work together again this time, and leave this item to Senior Brother first."
After Song Qingming finished speaking, he took out a third-level "Blood Dragon Fruit" with a look of reluctance and carefully handed it to Chu Fengping.
Looking at the jade box that Song Qingming took out, Chu Fengping's face suddenly became a little excited, and he took it with joy.
Like most high-level alchemists, Chu Fengping is also somewhat obsessed with alchemy skills. Anyone in the sect who has a high-level spiritual object that can improve his alchemy skills, as long as it is known to him, will eventually It is difficult to escape his "calculation".
"Junior Brother Song, just wait at home with peace of mind. It will only take two or three months at most. I will definitely be able to gather the auxiliary elixir to start making the elixir. When the elixir is refined, I will definitely send you a message to inform you. Receive the elixir."
After getting this spiritual object, Chu Fengping was finally satisfied and stopped pestering the helpless Song Qingming. After saying goodbye to him, he happily jumped on the flying boat in mid-air and left with Zhao Mengli and others. To Funiu Mountain.
After bidding farewell to everyone in the Xiaoyao Sect, Song Qingming had just returned to the living room when Zhang Tieyang, the last remaining Jindan guest, immediately approached him.
After feeling that the other party seemed to have something to talk to him alone, Song Qingming immediately greeted Song Qingyu and Huang Siyuan who were sitting in the living room and asked them to go out first.
"Fellow Daoist Zhang, there should be other matters during this trip to Funiu Mountain! If you can trust me, you might as well speak up."
Hearing Song Qingming's direct words, Zhang Tieyang showed a hint of embarrassment on his face, slowly put away the smile on his face, and said calmly:
"To be honest, Fellow Taoist Song, there are indeed some things that I want to ask about during this trip."
"I heard that Fellow Daoist Song has been cultivating on Tuoyun Mountain these years. I wonder what relationship Fellow Daoist Song has with them. Has the spiritual vein in Tuoyun Mountain already belonged to your Song family?"
Seeing that the other party mentioned Tuoyun Mountain, Song Qingming immediately guessed what Zhang Tieyang's main purpose was this time, and a look of clarity appeared on his face.
Golden elixir monks like Zhang Tieyang, who came from casual cultivation, did not have a fixed spiritual pulse practice, which was also a headache for them.
Zhang Tieyang's elixir formation time should be about the same as Song Qingming's. It has been thirty or forty years, and he should have accumulated some wealth.
He came to Weiguo at this time to inquire about the spiritual vein of Tuoyun Mountain. He must have intended to take over, so he came to the Song family in Funiu Mountain to explore Song Qingming's story.
After all, Song Qingming has been sitting on Tuoyun Mountain these years because of his agreement with Lin Yutang and the others.
As a casual cultivator from outside, Zhang Tieyang certainly couldn't find out too many secretive things for a while. Naturally, he couldn't determine the current relationship between Tuo Yunshan and the Song family.
After knowing the other party's intention, Song Qingming thought for a moment and then replied directly:
"Fellow Daoist Zhang has misunderstood. The spiritual vein of Tuo Yun Mountain was passed down by Chen Jinliang back then. It is still managed by several of his disciples in Jinyun Pavilion and has nothing to do with my Song family.
The reason why I have been sitting in Tuoyun Mountain these years is because I have an agreement with them to protect them. The relationship between us is just a cooperative relationship.
Fellow Taoist came here today and asked this question. Could it be that he is somewhat interested in the spiritual vein of Tuoyun Mountain? "
Zhang Tieyang's face lit up with joy when he heard this, and he nodded directly and said: "Yes, I was born as a casual cultivator. I have been wandering for many years and have not been able to find a suitable place to practice my spiritual veins after forming a pill.
I have been hearing people say that there is a third-level spiritual vein here in Weiguo, and it seems that they are looking for someone to take over. I happened to be free recently, so I came to take a look in person. "
Seeing Zhang Tieyang admitting the matter generously, Song Qingming continued with a smile:
"Although Old Ancestor Chen is no longer here, there is still an owner of this Tuoyun Mountain spiritual vein. If you are interested, fellow Taoist, you can directly go to Jinyun Pavilion to talk to them. As long as you two have reached an agreement, I naturally have no objections. .
However, you have just come to Weiguo, and there are some things that you may not be very clear about. I will remind you first.
The market on Tuoyun Mountain was created by Xiaoyao Sect and them, and the sect still holds the majority of the shares. If you want to acquire the spiritual vein of Tuoyun Mountain, it may be inappropriate for Jinyun Pavilion to agree.
It is better to ask Xiaoyao Sect first, so as to avoid that you have negotiated with Jinyun Pavilion, and something unexpected happens in the sect, and you will be happy for nothing in the end. "
After hearing Song Qingming's kind reminder, Zhang Tieyang smiled and bowed to him slightly, saying: "Oh! I see, I didn't find out about this, and I was indeed a little inconsiderate. Thank you for reminding me.
Then I won't go to Tuoyun Mountain for now. I will go to Xiaoyao Sect to pay my respects in two days and see the situation. Since this matter is somewhat related to Xiaoyao Sect, it may not be so easy. ”
“Since you are here for Tuoyun Mountain, you should not be too discouraged. For those of us who seek the Tao, if we are sincere, everything will be easy.”
“Haha! What you said makes sense, so I will take your good words.”
After getting the information he wanted from Song Qingming, Zhang Tieyang did not stay for long. He quickly said goodbye to Song Qingming and headed towards Guyang Mountain.
Although the Song family still has some shares in Tuoyun Mountain Market, Song Qingming did not have any resistance to Zhang Tieyang's desire to take over Tuoyun Mountain.
Although Tuoyun Mountain is a good third-level spiritual vein, it is still a little too far from Qinghe County. Song Qingming has never been very interested in this spiritual vein.
When he agreed to go to Tuoyun Mountain to protect them, he agreed to Lin Yutang to go to Tuoyun Mountain to take charge, more for Chen Jinliang's skills. , and the alchemy inheritance he left behind.
Moreover, after dealing with Zhang Tieyang, Song Qingming could also see that although this person was a little too smooth and valued immediate interests, there was no big problem with his personal conduct.
As long as Lin Yutang and the others could talk to Zhang Tieyang in advance, they should not have to worry too much in the future that the other party would do something like crossing the river and destroying the bridge.
No matter what the final result of their discussion would be, as long as it did not affect their own reputation, Song Qingming would not have too many ideas to intervene in this matter.
After Zhang Tieyang left Funiu Mountain, he soon left with sincerity. After going up Guyang Mountain, he found Xiaoyao Sect's head Yao Qianshu and explained his idea of taking over Tuoyun Mountain's spiritual vein.
What Zhang Tieyang and Song Qingming didn't expect was that Yao Qianshu didn't agree with his intention to take over Tuoyun Mountain.
Although he didn't point it out on the spot, the sect's attitude was clear. If Zhang Tieyang dared to take it by force, Xiaoyao Sect would definitely intervene.
Zhang Tieyang, who was still unwilling to give up, went to Tuoyun Mountain again and discussed it with Lin Yutang and his fellow disciples. I don't know if it was because he knew that Xiaoyao Sect would support them. relationship.
Faced with a Jindan cultivator like Zhang Tieyang, who lowered his status and came to discuss the matter in person, Lin Yutang's attitude was still very firm.
Even though Zhang Tieyang was willing to pay a certain price and promised to give Jinyun Pavilion many privileges to stay on the mountain, Lin Yutang and his fellow disciples directly rejected the other party's idea of taking over Tuoyun Mountain.
Zhang Tieyang, who was frustrated, could only give up in the end and left Weiguo with some regrets.
