Chapter 631: Counting the spiritual objects, seeing Gao Yuyao again

Although it would be safer to kill the other party directly, the other party has brought him a lot of benefits. It is indeed difficult for him to kill people for no reason.

In the nearly two hundred years of cultivation, Song Qingming's hands are stained with the blood of many cultivators, but he has never killed anyone casually so far. In most cases, he just protects himself.

In this dangerous world of cultivation, it is really difficult for cultivators to survive and become an absolutely good person. However, the fate of heaven also has reincarnation. Cultivators who do too many bad things are also very likely to be backfired by fate.

He has never revealed his true face in front of the other party, and he made him swear a blood oath. In any case, Song Qingming has tried his best to cover up the matter.

However, "Tianxingmen" is not a big sect. Even if something really happens one day, the Song family does not need to be too afraid of the other party coming to the door with Xiaoyao Sect as a backer. At most, they will just make some compensation to them.

Thinking of this, Song Qingming slowly relaxed in his heart, and soon turned into a white light and disappeared on the spot.

Two days later, several shield lights appeared in the northeast corner of Qinghe County, heading straight for the highest spiritual mountain in the county. Song Qingming and others standing on the flying boat saw the familiar scene in front of them, and they all smiled.

It has been more than two months since they left Funiushan Mountain and went to the East China Sea Xiuxian Realm, and finally crossed Yunwu Mountain safely and returned to Qinghe County. Song Qingming and the other two traveled back and forth for more than 100,000 miles, and now they finally returned to their home.

After returning to Funiushan Mountain, Song Qingming took out all the spiritual objects he had harvested this time and counted them. Among them, those low-level elixir spiritual objects with low value were all handed over to Song Yuanfang, asking him to put them in the family's gold storage pavilion first.

Song Qingming kept the remaining foundation-building pills, water spirit fruits and other more valuable spiritual objects on himself, intending to wait until someone in the family needs them in the future, and then go to him to get them.

During this trip to the East Sea Xiuxian World, Song Qingming and his three companions first obtained a five-element spiritual object that assisted in forming a pill and four foundation-building pills in "Tian Dan City".

Then on the way to "Baihua Palace", they accidentally killed the "Black Scale Beast" and obtained another demon king's inner pill and several other demon beast materials from the demon king.

Following He Mengxin and others to participate in the Luolong Island Trade Fair, they exchanged for a third-level medium-quality "Red Dragon Pill" and a water spirit fruit that was much less valuable than the foundation-building pill.

Then, when they passed through Yunwu Mountain a few days ago, they obtained two third-level low-quality "Golden Spirit Fruits" and the mature third-level spirit fruit tree that they had transplanted back.

Among these spiritual objects, the five-element spiritual object "Heavenly Fire Mysterious Pearl" that assisted in forming a pill was naturally prepared for Huang Siyuan to use in forming a pill. After Song Qingming came back, he quietly handed this spiritual object to her.

Song Qingming planned to save the "Red Dragon Pill" of the third-level middle grade for a breakthrough in cultivation in the future. This level of pill can help a cultivator to break through the bottleneck and take it directly.

The two third-level lower-grade "Golden Spirit Fruits" obtained in the Yunshan Mountain Range are also spiritual objects that can directly improve the cultivation of Jindan-stage cultivators after refining. Song Qingming and Song Qingyu just happened to need them, so they each took one.

As for the inner pill on the demon king, Song Qingming planned to ask Chu Fengping when he went to Guyang Mountain in the future to see if he could work with him to refine a high-level pill.

Some of the remaining materials on the demon king could be used to draw third-level spiritual talismans, and Song Qingming picked them out directly. He planned to take the rest to the Good Merit Pavilion of Xiaoyao Sect to see if he could exchange them for other high-level talisman-making materials.

The water spirit fruit obtained from the "Luolong Island" trade fair, plus the jade marrow golden mushroom in the spiritual medicine garden in the back mountain of the Song family, which will mature in about ten years, can already gather a furnace of the main medicine for refining the foundation-building pill.

When the other auxiliary spiritual medicines are gathered, Song Qingming can ask Chu Fengping or the alchemy masters in the "Tiandan League" to help open the furnace and refine another furnace of foundation-building pills.

Although there were some twists and turns on the way to the East China Sea Xiuxian Realm, it was generally smooth. It was also beyond the expectations of Song Qingming and others that some other spiritual objects were obtained.

After more than two months away, Qinghe County is still the same, and nothing major has happened. Instead, Guyang Mountain sent Song Qingming a more unexpected news.

Bai Yuxian, who has been in seclusion for more than ten years, came out of the retreat cave last month. This time she did not successfully break through to the Nascent Soul realm.

Fortunately, although Bai Yuxian failed to condense the Nascent Soul this time, she was not as seriously injured as Yao Qianshu last time. After taking the healing pill, she only needed to rest for a few years to slowly recover.

After hearing the news that Bai Yuxian failed to break through the Nascent Soul, Song Qingming had already been mentally prepared, but he couldn't help but sigh slightly in his heart.

Even for her, a cultivator with the top cultivation talent in the world of immortal cultivation, it is still so difficult to break through the Nascent Soul realm, not to mention Song Qingming and other people with ordinary spiritual roots.

However, for Song Qingming, who is still only at the fourth level of the Golden Core, it is still a bit early to condense the Nascent Soul. If he wants to impact the Nascent Soul realm, he must first improve his own cultivation to the ninth level of the Golden Core, otherwise it will be useless if he takes too big a step.

A few days after returning to Funiu Mountain, Song Qingming asked Song Qingyu to take Huang Siyuan to Tuoyun Mountain and replaced Xu Ziyan who was helping them station there.

Before going to the East China Sea, in order to ask Xu Ziyan to help take care of Tuoyun Mountain, Song Qingming also spent thousands of spiritual objects worth of spiritual stones to take care of her.

After all, he didn't know how long it would take to come back at that time. If something happened on Tuoyun Mountain before he came back, Song Qingming would not be able to explain to Xiaoyao Sect and Jinyun Pavilion.

Song Qingming himself went directly to Guyang Mountain, preparing to inquire there to find a third-level spiritual plant master to help go to Funiu Mountain to transplant the third-level spiritual fruit tree they had obtained not long ago.

This third-level spiritual fruit tree, as long as it can be properly taken care of in the future, can produce a mature third-level spiritual fruit every few decades. It is a spiritual object that can enhance the foundation of the Song family in the future.

After arriving at Guyang Mountain, Song Qingming originally wanted to visit Zhao Menglian, a third-level middle-grade spiritual plant master, but the other party happened to be in seclusion not long ago, so Song Qingming was turned away.

When he heard the disciples below say that Zhao Menglian might be in seclusion for two or three years this time, Song Qingming was immediately disappointed and gave up the idea of ​​asking her for help.

According to Song Yuanxue, the "gilded fruit tree" brought back by the family from Yunwu Mountain must be transplanted to the spiritual medicine garden within two months, otherwise it will cause the fruit tree to lose its spiritual energy due to too long a time, which will inevitably damage the origin of the spiritual tree.

Once this happens, the spiritual fruits on this spiritual fruit tree that have not yet matured will probably damage their vitality and mature prematurely, which will be a big loss. It is necessary to find another third-level spiritual plant master quickly.

Although Song Qingming has been a guest elder of the sect for decades, except for the Jindan elders in the sect, he may not know as well as a foundation-building cultivator who has been staying on Guyang Mountain for many years about the low-level cultivators in the sect.

In desperation, Song Qingming turned and came to the Lingshan Mountain on the other side of Guyang Mountain where Xu Ziyan's cave was located, intending to ask her about the news of other third-level spiritual plant masters on Guyang Mountain.

Since Guangling Zhenren's life span was not much a few years ago and he resigned from the position of elder of the General Affairs Hall, Xu Ziyan, the latest person in Xiaoyao Sect to form a dan and not yet having a specific position, took over the position of elder of the General Affairs Hall of the sect under the personal nomination of the Grand Elder Li Mufeng.

Although this position is usually busier than other elders in the sect, it is a good job to be able to manage tens of thousands of low-level disciples and many vassal families in the sect. For Xu Ziyan, who has just formed a dan and still lacks cultivation resources, it is also a more suitable position for her.

After Xu Ziyan successfully formed the elixir, in order to facilitate her own cultivation, her cave was moved to the west side of Guyang Mountain, on a third-level lower-grade spiritual vein with rich spiritual energy.

As soon as she arrived outside Xu Ziyan's cave, a female disciple in purple soon came to greet her. She was one of Xu Ziyan's disciples.

"Meeting Master Song!"

Song Qingming looked carefully and found that the cultivation level of this person was very different from the last time he saw her. He smiled and said, "I haven't been here for a long time. I didn't expect that you have successfully built your foundation. It's really a happy thing.

Your master and I are old friends. This talisman is a gift for your foundation building. I hope you don't dislike it!"

Seeing the second-level lower-grade talisman handed over by Song Qingming, the purple-clothed woman hurriedly bowed to thank him and took him to Xu Ziyan's cave with a happy face.

Compared to the gorgeous and gorgeous cave house at the gate of Zhao Menglian, with birds singing and flowers blooming, Xu Ziyan's place has always been relatively quiet and elegant. In addition to some necessary daily necessities, there are not many luxury items in the cave house.

As soon as he entered the door, Song Qingming saw Xu Ziyan coming out with a woman in yellow. The two of them were talking and laughing and seemed very intimate.

Song Qingming looked at the face of the woman in yellow carefully, and his face was slightly shocked. He said to her softly:

"Fairy Gao, long time no see!"

The woman in yellow standing with Xu Ziyan was her fellow apprentice Gao Yuyao.

Since returning from the expedition to the Floating Cloud Mountains together, although Song Qingming had seen Gao Yuyao several times later, there was no communication between the two. After Song Qingming formed the pill, he had not seen her for many years.

Although Gao Yuyao's appearance now looks not much different from that of the past, with the passage of time, her face has become more weathered and the whole person is much more mature than before.

Gao Yuyao is not much older than Song Qingming. She is about 180 years old now. She is not young among the foundation-building cultivators. Even those who have taken the anti-aging pill cannot completely keep their appearance unchanged.

Seeing Song Qingming, Gao Yuyao showed a little surprise on her face. She hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Hello, Uncle Song!"

"Don't be polite, Fairy Gao. You and I have known each other for many years. From now on, we can call each other equals."

Hearing this, Gao Yuyao was not too polite. She smiled and nodded slightly and said, "Then Yuyao will not be polite to Fellow Daoist Song. You must have something to discuss with me. I just have to go back to practice. I won't stay here to disturb you."

Seeing this, Xu Ziyan reminded her before she left, "Junior sister, go back and practice with peace of mind. When Senior Brother Chu has refined the Jade Dust Pill, I will naturally try my best to help you get one. Don't rush into cultivation. I hope you can stabilize your Dao heart."

"Yes! Yuyao understands. Thank you, Fourth Senior Sister, for your concern for me!" Gao Yuyao said, and then said hello to Song Qingming, and then walked out quickly.

After Gao Yuyao left, Song Qingming asked Xu Ziyan with some curiosity: "Fairy Gao, are you here to seek spiritual objects for Dan?"

"Indeed, when Master passed away, he told me to take care of them, my fellow brothers and sisters, but everyone has their own opportunities, and I can only do my best.

Senior Sister Gao has failed to form Dan twice in recent years. Even if I can get her a Jade Dust Pill this time, it will be difficult for her to achieve anything in her current situation." Xu Ziyan shook her head slightly and sighed helplessly.

"Junior sister is right! Everyone has their own opportunities. Compared with other geniuses in the sect, our cultivation talents are only average, and we are not the same as those who can step into the golden elixir road.

Fairy Gao may also have her own opportunities in the future. We should do our best in everything. Junior sister Xu should not be too pessimistic about this matter.

If Senior Brother Chu needs my help, Junior sister Xu can also send me a message. Fairy Gao and I knew each other in the past, so it is reasonable for me to help her with a little effort."

Hearing Song Qingming say this, Xu Ziyan waved her hand and said, "Brother Song, you are too polite. I am now in charge of the affairs of the General Affairs Hall, and I have some say in the sect. It should not be difficult to ask for a favor from Brother Chu.

By the way! Brother Song, what is the matter with you today? I don't know yet. Why don't you go inside to drink tea and talk in detail!"

"Okay! Then I'll bother you, Sister Xu!" Seeing Xu Ziyan's enthusiastic invitation, Song Qingming hurriedly said politely, and then followed her into the cave.

After leaving Xu Ziyan's cave, Gao Yuyao stepped on the flying sword to return to her own cave. From time to time, the figure of Song Qingming, who she had just seen, appeared in her mind, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart!

When Gao Yuyao first met Song Qingming on Caolu Mountain, the other party was just a cultivator from a small Qi-refining family with extremely ordinary talent.

Unexpectedly, in just over a hundred years, the handsome young man who seemed a little cautious in front of her has now successfully formed a golden elixir and become the Song Patriarch who dominates the Wei State.

And she, who was born in a foundation-building family and was highly regarded by the elders, was able to join the Xiaoyao Sect as an inner disciple at a young age. Now, she has failed to form a golden elixir several times. She can only look at others standing on the high ground with helplessness. How can she not feel helpless in her heart?

However, in the world of cultivating immortals, personal opportunities are illusory. Even if you are a person with outstanding spiritual roots, you will not be able to have a smooth life and enter the golden elixir realm as you wish.

In the Xiaoyao Sect, there were many people with higher talents in the same generation as Gao Yuyao. With the strong support of the sect, they also found it difficult to cross the huge threshold of forming a golden elixir.

Moreover, for many foundation-building disciples of the Xiaoyao Sect, there are only a small number of foundation-building cultivators who can cultivate to the ninth level of foundation-building and have the opportunity to impact the golden elixir realm.

Gao Yuyao was able to cultivate to the ninth level of foundation building early and twice made an attempt to the golden elixir realm. Her performance was actually quite good among her peers in foundation building.

It was just that Xu Ziyan and Song Qingming, who had successfully formed a golden elixir in the cultivation world of Weiguo in recent years, were once her good friends, which made Gao Yuyao feel a little unwilling to succeed in forming a golden elixir.

However, although Gao Yuyao failed to break through the golden elixir realm twice, her life span had not exceeded the 200-year limit for breaking through the golden elixir realm. In addition, she had Xu Ziyan, a golden elixir senior sister, to help her. She still had a chance to form a golden elixir next time, so she didn't need to be too desperate.

——

After drinking tea and chatting with Xu Ziyan in the cave for a few words, Song Qingming slowly opened his mouth to tell the purpose of his trip.

Hearing that Song Qingming was looking for a third-level spiritual plant master to help, Xu Ziyan thought for a moment and quickly recommended a candidate to him.

Unlike high-level alchemists and array masters, who are relatively hard to find, there are four or five spiritual plant masters above level three in Xiaoyao Sect, in addition to Zhao Menglian.

These relatively important talents for the sect are basically in the spiritual medicine garden in the back mountain of the sect on weekdays. They will not go out casually unless they receive any sect tasks.

The third-level spiritual plant master recommended by Xu Ziyan to Song Qingming is named Wei Jingliang.

Although this person's cultivation has just broken through to the seventh level of foundation building, his spiritual plant skills have been upgraded to level three more than 20 years ago. He is considered a relatively good third-level spiritual plant master in Xiaoyao Sect. It should not be a big problem for Wei Jingliang to just transplant a third-level spiritual fruit tree.

With the help of Xu Ziyan's introduction, Song Qingming soon met Wei Jingliang himself in the general affairs hall of the sect.

Although he is not ugly, Wei Jingliang has been in the spiritual medicine garden of the sect all year round and rarely goes out to interact with people. At first glance, he is a hard-working person who doesn't talk much.

After Song Qingming briefly introduced himself to him in person, Wei Jingliang, who learned that it was a task issued by the sect's guest elder in the General Affairs Hall, only thought for a moment and then readily agreed.

This mission was not too difficult for Wei Jingliang, and he had the opportunity to close the distance with a golden elixir monk. Naturally, he had no reason to refuse. Wei Jingliang quickly accepted the mission and followed Song Qingming. We rushed back to Funiu Mountain together.

After arriving at the spiritual medicine garden in the back mountain of the Song family, and seeing the "gilt fruit trees" brought back by Song Qingming and others, Wei Jingliang first stepped forward and carefully inspected the roots of the fruit trees.

After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the fruit tree itself, Wei Jingliang carefully transplanted it into the Song family's spiritual medicine garden with the help of Song Yuanxue and other spiritual planters of the Song family.

After successfully completing the task of transplanting the spiritual fruit tree, Wei Jingliang smiled at Song Qingming and said, "Uncle Song, although this fruit tree lost some spiritual energy during the transportation, the original fruit tree has not been damaged.

It only needs to be cared for and cultivated for a period of time. Once the spiritual tree adapts to the environment in the elixir garden, it should be able to slowly recover without affecting the spiritual fruits on the tree.

I have also taught fellow Taoist Yuan Xue how to take care of this spiritual fruit tree in the future. If something unexpected happens later, Uncle Song can send a message to the sect general affairs hall to inform the disciples, and I will figure out how to deal with it then. "

Seeing the "gilt fruit tree" that was slowly recovering its spiritual energy, Song Qingming nodded to Wei Jingliang with satisfaction, then took out the 600 spiritual stones he had prepared in advance and handed them into his hands.

Seeing that Song Qingming brought out a little more spiritual stones than agreed upon in advance, Wei Jingliang immediately began to refuse and did not dare to take more. However, with Song Qingming's insistence, Wei Jingliang finally accepted all the spiritual stones.

"Senior Nephew Wei, although these spiritual stones are not many, they are part of my Song family's heart. This fruit tree is now an important spiritual object of our Song family. I hope that my nephew will try not to mention this to others when he is away from home in the future. This is just in case someone knows about it and it will cause trouble to the Song family in the future."

Upon hearing this, Wei Jingliang immediately understood what Song Qingming meant, and nodded quickly: "Don't worry, Uncle Song. This disciple usually likes to play with some elixirs and herbs in the elixir garden. He is definitely not a meddlesome person."

"You have been working hard for more than a month. If you are not in a hurry to go back, just rest on the mountain for two days. You are also a distinguished guest of my Song family. After all, we must also fulfill our friendship as landlords. "

"Then! Disciple, it is better to obey orders than to be respectful. Thank you, Master Song, first!"

After getting the other party's approval, Song Qingming arranged for Song Yuanxue to take Wei Jingliang to the "Huixian Pavilion" on the top of the mountain. He also had some spiritual objects unique to the Song family taken from the Hidden Gold Pavilion and given to him.

Although Song Qingming is a Jindan monk, he still respects and is willing to be friends with Wei Jingliang, a talent with outstanding skills in cultivating immortals. That night, he even held a banquet to entertain Wei Jingliang in the "Huixian Pavilion" on the top of the mountain. Ichiban.

Song Yuanxue has been transplanting "gilt fruit trees" with Wei Jingliang for more than a month, and has also learned a lot about spiritual planting. Both of them are people who like the art of spiritual planting. After finally having some time off, they also spent time during the banquet. There are many common topics.

After transplanting the third-level spiritual fruit tree, which was very important to the family, Song Qingming finally got free time. After some preparations, he began to practice in seclusion. (End of chapter)
