Chapter 644 Xianyuan Sect, Tianbao Chamber of Commerce

After passing through several countries from Weiguo to the west, Song Qingming and Feng He have arrived at the territory of Songguo, east of Taiyue Lake.

Songguo is also a country of similar size to Weiguo. It is ruled by a Yuanying sect called "Hunyuan Sect", and its strength is not much different from that of the current Xiaoyao Sect.

Crossing the border of Songguo, going west is the territory of Qinguo, the largest country in the Floating Cloud Mountains. After reaching the border of Songguo, Feng He suddenly changed direction and flew south in his flying boat, bypassing the entire Qin border before continuing forward.

Seeing Feng He's intention to do this, Song Qingming could also guess that the other party might be afraid of the power of "Wanling Sect" and afraid of being troubled by them.

Qin's "Wanling Sect" is not only the strongest sect in the Floating Cloud Mountains, but also has a great cultivator in the late Yuanying period. Once they are provoked, even a master like Feng He who has reached the peak of the Golden Core will probably have a hard time getting away.

Song Qingming naturally agreed with Feng He's cautious and low-key behavior. The big sects to the west of Taiyue Lake had never gotten along well with the "Xiaoyao Sect" and other sects to the east.

As a guest elder of the Xiaoyao Sect, Song Qingming had to keep a low profile when he arrived at their territory. It would be best if he didn't show up.

After bypassing the Qin State and passing through two small countries, Song Qingming and Feng He finally arrived at the edge of the "Fantasy Sea Desert" to the west of the Fuyun Mountains a month after their departure.

The entire "Fantasy Sea Desert" stretches nearly 100,000 miles from east to west, and is on the only way for the Fuyun Mountains to the "Eastern Phoenix Country".

In the desert, except for a few places where there are some oases suitable for mortals to live, there are endless yellow sands. There are also many powerful monsters and very difficult sandworms in the desert, and the living environment is extremely harsh.

Because no one would come here on their own initiative, this place has become an excellent hiding place for some demon cultivators or bandits who are avoiding being tracked. It is said that there are even powerful demon cultivators at the Nascent Soul level hiding here.

Low-level cultivators in the foundation-building and Qi-refining stages below the Golden Core stage simply do not have the ability to cross the "Fantasy Sea Desert" alone. If they want to cross this place to the "Eastern Phoenix Country" cultivation world, they can only rely on large flying boats and spend more than half a year.

As soon as the flying boat entered the "Fantasy Sea Desert", Feng He took out a red talisman from his body and handed it to Song Qingming behind him, and said:

"Take this talisman for self-defense first. After entering the depths of the Fantasy Sea Desert, if you encounter any danger that I can't solve, you should take care of yourself and don't worry about me!"

"Thank you for the gift, senior!"

Seeing that Feng He took out a very precious third-level upper-grade talisman, Song Qingming showed a little surprise on his face, and didn't say anything polite to him, and just put it away.

——

Half a year later, outside a market in the southeast corner of the "Donghuang Kingdom" Xiuxian World, just before sunset, a green light flew over and stopped a few miles outside the market.

After landing, the green light directly turned into two figures, Song Qingming and Feng He who had just crossed the "Fantasy Sea Desert".

"Senior! This place is not far from Donghuang Kingdom. We can just take a break and rest for a night before continuing on our way!"

Feng He, who was standing by, nodded slightly and reminded: "When you get here, don't call me senior anymore, so as not to be discovered and suspected by someone with ulterior motives. Let's call each other fellow Taoists in the future!"

"Senior is still thoughtful. Then please go, Fellow Taoist Feng!" Song Qingming said, smiling and raised his hand to Feng He! The two soon walked towards the market with a happy face.

Song Qingming and Feng He had a relatively smooth journey. Although they were harassed by monsters and sandworms many times when they crossed the "Fantasy Sea Desert", these did not cause much trouble to their journey, and most of them were quickly repelled by the two.

The most dangerous time was when they encountered a sandworm with strength comparable to that of the late Jindan. Relying on the terrain, it wanted to use its many low-level sandworms to block the flying car driven by Song Qingming and the others.

However, with Feng He and Song Qingming both attacking, this late Jindan sandworm still lost after fighting with them for a long time, and could only leave behind hundreds of low-level sandworms and hide in the depths of the sand alone to escape.

If Song Qingming and Feng He did not want to waste time on this sandworm because they did not have many valuable materials, the high-level sandworm in the late Jindan would probably not have such good luck to escape.

After hiding their own cultivation and pretending to be two foundation-building cultivators to enter this market, they walked around inside and quickly found a relatively large inn.

Feng He had also been to the "Eastern Phoenix Country" cultivation world in his early years, and was very familiar with the accents of the cultivators here. After entering the inn, under the leadership of Feng He, Song Qingming did not say a word, and the two of them were regarded as foreign cultivators who entered the desert to search for treasures.

Unlike the Floating Cloud Mountains, the desert near the "Eastern Phoenix Country" cultivation world is relatively lively, and there are often low-level cultivators from all directions who enter the desert to look for treasures or caves left by senior cultivators.

On the way here, Song Qingming and the others had already met a team of cultivators from the "Eastern Phoenix Country" who entered the desert to explore and search for treasures.

And this small market opened on the edge of the desert is to facilitate the cultivators here to enter and exit the desert to search for treasures. The people who come and go are also low-level cultivators in the Qi Refining or Foundation Building period.

After resting for one night in this small market, the two left the market early the next morning and continued to the northwest. They traveled for more than three days before officially entering the "East Phoenix Kingdom" world of immortal cultivation. Within the Liangzhou area.

Liangzhou can only be regarded as a small, lower-middle-class continent among the thirteen states of the "East Phoenix Kingdom", but its territory is almost half the size of the entire Fuyun Mountain Cultivation World.

The two of them tried their best to drive the flying boat on the road, and it took them a full month to cross the entire Liangzhou and enter Fenghe's destination of this trip, the boundary of Ningzhou.

Ningzhou is a large state located in the core area of ​​the "East Phoenix Kingdom" Cultivation World. It is almost the size of two Liangzhous and is very close to the size of the Fuyun Mountain Cultivation World.

The entire territory of Ningzhou is the sphere of influence of the "Xian Yuan Sect", the top immortal cultivating sect in the "East Phoenix Kingdom".

No matter who the foreign high-level monks are, after entering the boundary of Ningzhou, as long as they want to stay here for a long time, they must find a way to go to the nearby "Xianyuan Sect" control square city to register their identity and where they came from. , to make it easier to walk here.

Otherwise, if something happens here, and you meet the law enforcement monks of the "Xianyuan Sect" who are patrolling outside, and they find that you have not registered your identity in advance and cannot explain clearly, they may directly take you back for interrogation and then expel you from the country.

However, Feng He had already prepared for this matter. Not only had he prepared a very suitable identity for himself as a casual cultivator, but he had also prepared for Song Qingming and wanted him to hide his identity with him.

Regarding Feng He's arrangement, Song Qingming thought about it again and again, but still declined Feng He's kindness and directly made a detailed registration for the other party using his real identity.

This time he came to the "East Phoenix Kingdom" to cultivate the immortal world, not only to help Feng He overcome the tribulation and become a Nascent Soul, but also to travel here and find news about "Yuxuan Mountain and Taixu Palace".

Therefore, when Song Qingming is alone in the future, he will definitely have to walk around Ningzhou. In order to prevent others from finding out his identity and causing unnecessary trouble, Song Qingming chose to register his origin and name in this way.

After doing these things, Feng He took Song Qingming to Ningzhou, near the largest city "Xianyuan City".

This "Xianyuan City" is located on the east side of Ningzhou. It is built on a fourth-level high-grade spiritual vein. It is the largest fairy city under the control of the "Xianyuan Sect" except the mountain gate. There are nearly 100,000 monks in the city alone. There are countless people, even more mortals living nearby.

Although "Xianyuan Sect" is the leading god-transforming sect in Donghuang Xianzhou, compared with other major sects in the "Donghuang Kingdom" cultivation world, Xianyuan Sect has always been relatively friendly to casual cultivators from all over the world.

As long as an innocent person comes to "Xianyuan City", whether you want to travel here or want to settle down and practice here for a long time, as long as you do not violate the rules of "Xianyuan City", you can choose to rent here Live in the cave.

Moreover, "Xianyuan City" does not exclude outside casual cultivators. As long as you are willing to spend more spiritual stones, you can directly retreat here to form elixirs or attack the Nascent Soul realm. "Xianyuan City" will also help you. Provide some necessary shelter.

Therefore, in the "East Phoenix Kingdom" and even the entire Donghuang Immortal Continent, many casual cultivators who can't find a suitable place to retreat to break through the realm, or monks who are from small sects and have no support from the cultivating family, will choose to come here to retreat to break through the realm.

You don't have to worry about not having enough spiritual energy to break through the retreat, and you can also get the protection of the "Xianyuan Sect" to prevent your opponents and enemies from coming to block your way after learning the news.

Seeing Feng He bringing him here, Song Qingming thought at first that he was preparing to have a baby in seclusion in "Xianyuan City".

Unexpectedly, when he arrived at a mortal town dozens of miles away from "Xianyuan City", Feng He took the initiative to stop and took out a letter and a white jade plaque and handed them to Song Qingming.

"Brother Song, please help me personally run these two things and hand them over to the shopkeeper of the Tianbao Chamber of Commerce in the north of Xianyuan City. Just hand the things over to him. Don't ask or answer anything else.

After you enter the city, don't be anxious about where to go immediately. Go shopping around the city first to see if there is anything you like, and then go there in two hours.

You must remember that it must be handed over to the shopkeeper of Tianbao Chamber of Commerce in person, and cannot be borrowed from others, otherwise important events will be missed. "

Seeing Feng He's cautious look, Song Qingming didn't ask any more questions. He put away the two things in his hands, nodded slightly, and left the town quickly heading towards "Xianyuan City" ahead. .

——

During this period of time, Song Qingming followed Feng He. Although it had been almost two months since they entered the world of immortal cultivation in the "East Phoenix Kingdom", the two of them were in a hurry and did not stop to hang out when passing some large markets and fairy cities.

In order to avoid attracting attention and save some troubles, the place where he chooses to rest and recover his mana on the way is basically the nearest mortal town or small market. This is Song Qingming's first time to come to the large-scale immortal cultivation world of "East Phoenix Country" In the fairy city.

Although he had already seen the prosperity of "Tiandan City" in the East China Sea, the moment Song Qingming arrived at Xianyuan City, he was still shocked by the fairy city in front of him, which was several times larger than "Tiandan City".

The entire "Xianyuan City" is built on mountains and rivers, with a length and width of hundreds of miles, backed by a majestic mountain ten thousand feet high, and in front of it is a large river about ten miles wide.

Not only is the place larger, the number of monks in Xianyuan City is also much greater than that of all the immortal cities and cities that Song Qingming has visited. In front of him, there are only monks queuing up waiting to enter the city. Song Qingming just glanced at it, and estimated that at least There are thousands of people.

Unlike the Immortal City and Fang City that Song Qingming visited in the Fuyun Mountains and the East China Sea Cultivation World in the past, "Xianyuan City" is not so strict on the investigation and control of foreign monks. It only requires a simple verification of identity, and even ordinary mortals can enter and leave the city at will. .

The only difference is that there is a giant "Magic Subduing Array" set up at the gate of "Xianyuan City" to deter demonic cultivators. All monks and mortals entering and exiting need to pass through the magic array before they can enter and leave the city smoothly.

This high-level "magic subduing array" is very convenient. You only need to walk through it and do not need to stay in it to wait for detection.

And the effect is far more powerful than the low-level magic formations Song Qingming has seen in the past to deal with magic cultivators. Even if a Nascent Soul-level demon cultivator arrives here, it will be difficult for him to successfully pass through this fourth-level "magic subduing array". Probe.

Like the Immortal Cultivation World of Fuyun Mountains, there are also many demonic monks in the vast "East Phoenix Kingdom" Cultivation World. However, the righteous sects in this Cultivation World are very powerful, and these demonic monks are not so arrogant here.

As a Golden Core monk, Song Qingming still received some respect when he entered the city. He did not line up with the low-level monks and mortals to enter the city, but took a special passage that could only be entered by high-level monks above the Golden Core stage.

After checking his identity at the city gate, Song Qingming quickly got a silver ring that could represent his identity in the city, and then directly passed through the "Magic Subduing Array" and entered Xianyuan City.

According to Feng He, Song Qingming did not rush to find the "Tianbao Chamber of Commerce" first, but walked around the city before slowly arriving at a street in the north of the city.

After walking a few dozen steps forward, a very busy shop came into view. Song Qingming took a closer look at the surroundings and confirmed that there was only one shop nearby called "Tianbao Chamber of Commerce". Song Qingming immediately walked in. .

"Hey! Senior, please come in quickly. Do you want to buy elixirs or spiritual items? All the good stuff in our house is on the second floor. How about I take you up to have a look first?"

"No, I'm here to sell a spiritual object. Can I meet with your shopkeeper first?"

Although this is Song Qingming's first time in the "East Phoenix Kingdom" cultivation world, following Feng He recently, he has almost learned the accent of the local monks and can communicate with them normally.

Hearing that Song Qingming wanted to sell spiritual objects, this guy, who was only at the Qi refining stage, looked slightly disappointed, and immediately nodded and said:

"Oh! Senior, please go inside and sit for a while. I will immediately notify the shopkeeper to come see you."

After saying this, the waiter took Song Qingming to a small room next to the hall for guests to rest. Less than half an hour later, a woman with a charming figure and appearance walked in with a smile on her face.

"I am the treasurer of Tianbao Chamber of Commerce, Gan Ruting, this senior is so polite!" Although the woman who spoke did not look very stunning, her voice was very nice.

Song Qingming, who was sitting in the room enjoying tea, immediately put down the tea bowl in his hand upon hearing this and nodded slightly to say hello.

After Gan Ruting walked to Song Qingming and sat down, she asked enthusiastically: "I just heard the guy below said that the senior wants to sell spiritual objects. I don't know what they are. Senior, you might as well tell me directly."

Hearing the other party's question, Song Qingming didn't rush to answer. He first glanced around the room, then waved his hand and placed a soundproof barrier directly around the two of them.

Seeing Song Qingming being so careful, Gan Ruting didn't show much strangeness on her face. Apparently she had met such a cautious guest more than once.

"Senior, don't worry. There are arrangements outside the rooms here to isolate the monks' spiritual consciousness. Even the golden elixir monks cannot let their spiritual consciousness come in."

Song Qingming nodded slightly and said: "I am also entrusted by others, so I have to be careful. I hope you don't take offense."

After speaking, Song Qingming waved his right hand, and with a flash of light around the table in front of him, a letter and a white jade plaque appeared. They were the two things Feng He had given him before.

"This is white jade, fellow Taoist, where did this come from?" As soon as she saw the white round jade plaque on the table, Gan Ruting's expression suddenly changed and she asked Song Qingming softly.

"I'm just a messenger. Since the things have been delivered, I'll leave first!"

After Song Qingming replied to the other party calmly, he waved his hand and put away the soundproof barrier he had just installed. He ignored Gan Ruting who looked at him strangely and walked out directly from her.

Seeing that Song Qingming refused to say anything more, Gan Ruting did not ask any more questions. After watching the other party leave, she carefully picked up the two things on the table.

After carefully examining the white jade plaque for a while, Gan Ruting put it away together with the unsigned letter, and walked out of the room to the hall outside.

"Go to the second floor and tell Shopkeeper Hu that I need to go out for something. Just let him make the decision on things here."

Gan Ruting came to the lobby, calmly called a waiter and gave instructions, then turned and walked out of Tianbao Chamber of Commerce.

After completing the letter delivery task assigned by Feng He, Song Qingming was not in a hurry to leave "Xianyuan City". He found a restaurant in the city that looked good and patiently tasted a few delicious spiritual foods before returning with a somewhat reluctant expression. Make an agreement with Feng He about the mortal town.

Seeing Song Qingming's return, Feng He immediately asked carefully. After learning that everything went smoothly and nothing unexpected happened, he slowly felt relieved.

"Senior Feng He, if you want to go into seclusion and have a baby, you can go directly to Xianyuan City. Why do you have to go to the trouble of asking others for help?" Seeing that Feng He's face was a little happy at the moment, Song Qingming also took the opportunity to ask what was in his heart. doubts.

"Haha! You also think that the Xianyuan Sect is too simple. The methods of these large sects are not as simple as you think. In the past few thousand years, the people who have fallen into the hands of the Xianyuan Sect have probably lost their lives. There should be no less than a thousand people.

Even if I enter the territory of Xianyuan Sect, I have to be careful not to show up casually. You asked me to go to Xianyuan City to retreat and break through the realm of Yuanying. Are you not afraid that I will reveal my identity, or do you think your life is too long? .

If this trip was really that simple, why would I need to bring you here specially? "

"Oh! This junior really doesn't know. Senior, please don't blame me. You said that the Xianyuan Sect was able to detect so many people who had taken away the body. Do they have any special means?" After hearing Feng He's explanation of the matter, Song Qingming showed a trace of confusion on his face.

Feng He shook his head slightly and sighed: "The Xianyuan Sect has caught so many monks who have stolen bodies. I have heard many people talk about this the last time I came to Donghuang Kingdom. It should not be false.

As for how they found out, we don't know. What kind of methods a god-transforming sect like Xianyuan Sect has, we can't just guess it casually.

But you don't have to worry too much. I have already planned things here. You just need to help me do things that are inconvenient for me to come forward. As long as you are a little careful, there won't be much danger. "

Seeing that Feng He still had a helpless look on his face when he talked about this matter, Song Qingming was also slightly surprised.

The monks who can seize other people's bodies are at least those who have cultivated at the Golden Core stage or above. Unfortunately, their experience, experience and magical abilities are definitely not comparable to those of ordinary monks of the same level. How can someone easily discover their identity? .

Just like Feng He standing in front of him, although he is still a ninth-level golden elixir monk, he was once a Yuanying monk, and his personal magical powers are far more powerful than those of the ninth-level golden elixir monks Song Qingming has seen. many.

Even when Yao Qianshu, the former top master of Xiaoyao Sect, was at his peak, he would not have much chance of winning against the current Feng He. His strength could almost be regarded as the top master under Nascent Soul.

Even such a powerful Feng He had to be so cautious when he got here. He didn't even have the courage to enter "Xianyuan City". It was no wonder that he would choose to seek help from him.

Song Qingming and Feng He waited patiently for a few more days in this mortal town, and finally a golden elixir monk came to the door.

After Feng He had a private conversation with the other party, the two followed the other party and left the town again, arriving at a small Taoist temple called "Golden Cloud Temple" thousands of miles away. (End of chapter)
