Chapter 669 Gao Yubai falls, the northern border monster moves south (asking for monthly votes)
After all, in order to lure out these demon cultivators, Song Qingyu not only damaged her own life magic weapon, but also lost a valuable third-level defensive talisman. Li Wutong wanted to compensate her for some of her losses in this battle.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Li!"
Song Qingyu, who knew the other party's intention, did not say too much to Li Wutong. After taking these storage bags, he bowed to the other party and put them directly into his bag.
After Li Wutong led his men away, Fang Baixuan, who was standing aside, also bowed to Song Qingyu and returned to "Guiyunfang".
After taking the elixir given by Song Qingyu, Gao Yubai did not hold on for too long. After talking to Gao Changjin about the aftermath, he breathed his last.
As the head of the Gao family, Gao Yubai was also the one with the highest cultivation in the Gao family in the past few hundred years. His sudden departure was also a great blow to the Gao family.
After losing Gao Yubai, the patriarch who was at the peak of foundation building, the Gao family only had Gao Changjin, a cultivator at the third level of foundation building. Gao Changjin was only a cultivator with three spiritual roots, and his cultivation talent was far inferior to Gao Yubai. It would be difficult for him to break through the late stage of foundation building in this life.
If there were no other changes, the overall strength of the Gao family would not be able to take on the position of the second largest foundation building family in Qinghe County, and it would definitely give up some of its interests to other foundation building families in the future.
After taking a look at Gao Changjin, who was still looking sad, Song Qingyu felt a little reluctant in his heart. He stepped forward and gave a few instructions to Song Yuanfang, asking him to lead others to help and send the bodies of Gao Yubai and other Gao family cultivators back to "Lotus Mountain" first.
In this battle, because all the cultivators who came were above the foundation building level, except for the loss of the patriarch Gao Yubai and dozens of Qi refining cultivators, no other cultivators died in the battle with the demon cultivators. Only Song Yuanxue and others were slightly injured.
After telling the Gao family to deal with the matter, Song Qingyu left "Bai Lin Mountain" and returned to the family.
After returning to Funiu Mountain, Song Qingyu went directly back to the cave and took out the storage bags of those demon cultivators on the battlefield.
It took Song Qingyu a whole day to open these storage bags one by one and pour out the contents.
Because they often have to avoid the pursuit of righteous cultivators, it is difficult for demon cultivators to have absolute trust even between master and apprentice. Generally, those foundation-building demon cultivators who follow the golden elixir demon cultivators are basically forced to be planted with restrictions and controlled by others.
Therefore, it is naturally difficult for them to hide good things.
When the storage bags of those foundation-building demon cultivators were opened, as expected by Song Qingyu, they were filled with useless spiritual objects that had been contaminated with demonic energy.
There were four storage bags in total, and Song Qingyu only took out 3,000 spiritual stones and several second-level magic tools that needed to expel the evil spirits. The rest were some strange elixirs and secret manuals that were not of high value or that only magic cultivators dared to use.
The reason why these magic tools stained with evil spirits were not of high value was that ordinary foundation-building cultivators did not dare to expel the evil spirits on them casually. Generally, only cultivators above the Jindan stage could control the scale in the process of expelling the evil spirits and prevent the evil spirits from infecting their bodies.
However, it was unlikely that a Jindan cultivator would spend a lot of time and energy on such things of low value. Therefore, after obtaining such magic tools, most cultivators could only destroy them directly and melt them into raw materials.
Only a small number of high-quality ones would be willing to spend a lot of money to ask Jindan cultivators to expel the evil spirits.
Song Qingyu only picked out a second-level high-quality flying sword and kept it, waiting for his own time in the future to slowly expel the evil spirits on it.
The rest were thrown aside by her, intending to hand them over to the family refining pavilion in the future and directly smelt them for refining materials.
After looking through the things on the bodies of the foundation-building demon cultivators, Song Qingyu turned his attention to the pile of spiritual objects in the storage bag of the purple-clothed woman.
Compared with those foundation-building demon cultivators who were controlled by others, the purple-clothed woman, who was a golden elixir demon, seemed much richer.
After patiently sorting them out, Song Qingyu found nearly 7,000 spiritual stones and a magic weapon stained with demonic energy. The value of these things alone was almost more than 10,000 spiritual stones.
In addition, Song Qingyu also found some magic tools and spiritual objects that were not stained by demonic energy. It seemed that the purple-clothed woman had obtained them from the cultivators who were harmed by them not long ago.
There were two magic tools among them, and Song Qingyu recognized them at a glance. They were the magic tools that Gao Yubai had used in front of her that year.
Song Qingyu picked up the two magic weapons, pondered for a moment, and put them aside, intending to have someone return them to the Gao family in two days.
Although Gao Yubai died, the Gao family was still alive. These things should have belonged to them, so it was better to return them to them.
After sorting out these scattered low-level spiritual objects, Song Qingyu separated the magic cultivation spiritual objects that were contaminated with demonic energy and put them aside. There were also two spiritual objects left on the table that she could not identify.
One of these two things was a golden crystal ball, which looked like a high-quality second-level magic weapon.
But when Song Qingyu cast a spell to activate it, he found that the crystal ball had no reaction, which was not very different from ordinary magic weapons.
This also made Song Qingyu a little confused about this thing for a while, so he could only put it away first and wait for time to go to Xiaoyao Sect and ask other elders in the sect in the future.
There is also a spiritual object, which is a spiritual talisman with three Bing Fei Swords drawn on it. This object looks like a third-level low-grade spiritual talisman, but the power contained in it is slightly worse. It seems to be a relatively Rare talisman.
Spiritual objects such as talisman treasures are very rare in the world of immortality. Song Qingyu has only seen one with his own eyes in all his years of cultivation, which is the "Green Leaf Three-Star Ruler" that Song Qingming took from the Ma family of "Iron Immortal Castle". .
After this talisman came into the hands of Song Qingming, it was briefly handed over to Song Qingyu. It was not until Song Qingyu formed the elixir that it was handed over to Huang Siyuan.
Now, after several twists and turns, the "Qingye Three-Star Ruler" has fallen into the hands of Song Yuanfang, who is in charge of the family's large and small things. It can be regarded as his most powerful trump card.
However, over the years, although many people in the Song family have been in charge of the "Green Leaf Three-Star Ruler", no one has actually used it. This is also a reason why the family has been relatively peaceful over the years.
Although he did not find any valuable spiritual objects, it was still a small gain, which made up for his losses in the previous battle. After finding these spiritual objects from the demon cultivator, Song Qingyu's face was quite satisfied.
After putting away these two spiritual objects and other useful things, Song Qingyu cast a spell to burn all the magic techniques and a bunch of useless elixirs and spiritual objects, and then he felt relieved. .
——
On a high mountain thousands of miles away from Qinghe County, a burst of black mist suddenly flew in from the north. After reaching the top of the mountain, the black mist slowly stopped, and then plunged into a very tall mountain on the north side of the mountain. In a hidden cave.
Two foundation-building monks who were meditating in the cave were startled when they saw a burst of black mist suddenly appearing in front of them.
Before they could react, the black mist penetrated into the body of a young-looking man in white who was standing in front, and then the man went limp and lay directly on the ground.
"Senior Brother Chen! What's wrong with you?"
Seeing the man in white in front of him suddenly passed out, a woman in green who didn't know what happened quickly shouted to him.
A moment later, when the woman in green braved her courage and approached to check the other person's condition, the man in white's closed eyes suddenly opened, and bursts of strange black energy emerged from his body.
"Damn Xiaoyao Sect monks, you dare to destroy my body, it's really abominable!"
Hearing a completely different voice from the man in white, the woman in green on the side was also startled, and asked tremblingly: "You are not Senior Brother Chen, are you the Master?"
After the man in white raised his eyes and glanced at the woman in green beside him, he did not directly answer her question. Instead, he took out a magic talisman from his body and began to cast spells with his eyes closed.
However, just a moment after the spell was cast, the talisman in the hand of the man in white suddenly ignited without any wind and turned into ashes.
"It's really useless, even the soul didn't escape!"
After the man in white clothes finished speaking, he stood up and adjusted to his body, then suddenly turned around and threw a "bloody jade plate" and cast a spell on the green-clothed man beside him, trapping him in a blood-colored cage.
"Master, please spare my life. I am so loyal to you, why do you still do this murderous thing!"
After feeling the essence and blood all over her body being slowly withdrawn from her body, the woman in green suddenly showed a look of horror and kept begging for mercy from the man in white in front of her.
However, her pitiful cry for mercy did not move the man in white in front of her. The "bloody jade plate" quickly drained all the blood from her body, turning her into a lifeless and withered corpse.
"Haha! Now that my Yuanshen Seishi cultivation level has dropped drastically, I'm afraid I won't be able to recover in a few decades. I can't rest assured if you stay by my side all the time.
Since you are so loyal to me, then I accept the essence and blood in you as my teacher, which can be regarded as your last filial piety to me, hahaha.! "
The man in white stood in the cave and laughed wildly for a few times. He paid no attention to the woman in green who still had her big eyes open. He took the storage bag from her body and left the secret cave directly.
——
A few days later, white flags were hung on "Lotus Mountain" in Qinghe County, and the Gao family began to hold funerals for the monks who died in "Bailin Mountain".
After hearing about this incident, Song Qingyu personally went to "Lotus Mountain" to express his condolences to Gao Yubai, a good friend who had fought alongside him for many years.
After Song Qingyu paid homage to Gao Yubai, he publicly promised in front of many monks from Qinghe County who came to attend the funeral that he would provide the Gao family with a foundation-building pill within three years according to the sect's pension.
This move also made the Gao family members in "Lotus Mountain" who were deeply in grief feel a little better.
In any case, Gao Yubai died in the battle between the monks and the demon cultivators in Qinghe County. It is reasonable for Song Qingyu to compensate the Gao family according to the treatment of those who died in the battle with the demon cultivators.
A few days after the funeral held by the Gao family, Huang Siyuan, who went to the East China Sea Cultivation World to participate in the "Heavenly Pill Alliance" meeting, finally returned to the family with many spiritual objects.
The monster turmoil is imminent. Although the Song family is actively preparing for war, many of the various materials needed for the battlefield are becoming increasingly scarce in Weiguo and even around the entire Fuyun Mountains and are difficult to collect.
Before going to the Immortal Cultivation World in the East China Sea this time, Song Qingyu discussed with Huang Siyuan and took out a lot of spiritual stones from the family's golden pavilion and gave them to her, and asked Huang Siyuan to help purchase some needed spiritual objects from the East China Sea.
Seeing Huang Siyuan return safely and bring a lot of spiritual objects needed by the family, the Song family members relieved a lot of pressure on their shoulders.
Huang Siyuan's alchemy skills have been upgraded to the third-level lower grade, and she can refine golden elixirs and spiritual elixirs needed for daily cultivation of foundation-building cultivators. This time, she also bought a lot of second- and third-level high-level spiritual medicines and planned to try to refine a large number of such elixirs in the family in the future.
This is not only conducive to improving the alchemy level of the family cultivators, but also can save a lot of spiritual stones needed to buy elixirs for the entire family. Song Qingyu and Song Yuanfang are also very supportive of this.
In addition to Huang Siyuan, the Song family has also successfully advanced to become a second-level alchemist in recent years. One of them is Song Yuanqian, the family foundation elder who successfully advanced to the second-level lower-grade alchemist 20 years ago.
The other is a cultivator of the "Xuan" generation of the Song family who just built his foundation a few years ago, named Song Xuanqing.
Song Xuanqing is the second cultivator of the "Xuan" generation of the Song family who has successfully built a foundation. He is also a cultivator with three spiritual roots with good talent.
Among the many foundation-building cultivators of the Song family, Song Xuanqing's cultivation talent can be ranked in the forefront. He was less than 40 years old when he built his foundation, which was slightly worse than Song Yuanli and Song Yuanhao. His cultivation speed was still better than that of other family foundation-building elders.
Because Song Xuanqing had better fire spiritual roots in his body, he mainly practiced the family's fire attribute exercises and chose to learn alchemy skills.
Because he caught up with the good time when the family rebuilt the alchemy pavilion, Song Xuanqing's talent in alchemy was not very strong, but with his own efforts and the cultivation of the family, he still improved his alchemy skills step by step to the first-level upper grade.
After successfully building the foundation, after the personal teaching of the family ancestor Huang Siyuan, Song Xuanqing, as expected, finally improved his alchemy level to the second-level lower grade in two years, becoming the third alchemist in the Song family with alchemy skills above the second level.
Huang Siyuan went to the "Tian Dan League" in the East China Sea this time and brought back two foundation-building pills for the family. These were all made by her after she collected materials in the "Tian Dan League".
Although Huang Siyuan's alchemy skills have just been upgraded to the third-level lower grade, the success rate of refining "foundation-building pills" is close to 30%.
Now she will not lose any spiritual medicine when refining "foundation-building pills" by herself. If she is lucky, Huang Siyuan can also refine one or two more "foundation-building pills" to make a small profit of spiritual stones.
These two "foundation-building pills" were originally intended to be used by the family cultivators, but Song Qingyu had already promised to give one to the Gao family, so he directly asked Song Yuanfang to send a letter to notify Gao Changjin to come and collect it.
After the other "foundation-building pill" passed the family meeting, Song Qingyu handed it to Song Xuanfeng, who was ready to build a foundation at any time, and arranged for him to retreat immediately to impact the foundation-building realm.
Now that the monster beasts are about to revolt, every bit of improvement in the family's strength is very critical to the Song family. Having one more foundation-building cultivator will definitely be of great help in the upcoming war.
Not only the Song family, but all the cultivators in the entire Wei Kingdom, including the Xiaoyao Sect, have already sensed that this war could happen at any time, and have all begun to step up their efforts to improve their own strength and collect various strategic materials.
In this way, more than four years have passed in the tense preparations for war, and the monster beasts in the northern border have finally begun to move south on a large scale.
On this day, a green sword light suddenly flew out of a cave on the top of Funiu Mountain and landed on the top of a mountain not far away, turning into a green-clothed woman with a bit of heroic spirit.
The green-clothed woman standing on the top of the mountain raised her hands, and the three green flying swords surrounding her merged into one, turning into a green giant sword about ten feet high.
Then, under the control of the green-clothed woman, the green giant sword was gently waved and released dozens of green sword lights, heading straight for a small hill hundreds of feet away on the opposite side.
A moment later, with a loud rumble, the hilltop in the distance was cut down by a large section after the smoke and dust cleared.
Song Qingyu, who had been in seclusion for almost a year, showed a satisfied look on his face after seeing the power of his attack.
"After refining the Mysterious Crystal Spirit Pearl, the power of my life treasure has indeed increased a lot. It seems that my efforts have not been in vain."
The "Mysterious Crystal Spirit Pearl" mentioned by Song Qingyu is the golden sphere she found in the storage bag of the purple-clothed woman after the battle to wipe out the demon cultivators a few years ago.
Song Qingyu, who did not recognize this object at first, thought it was a special magic weapon. It was not until a year later that he went to Xiaoyao Sect and asked the knowledgeable Chu Fengping about it that he knew that this object was a special crystal stone for smelting magic treasures.
"Xuan Jing Ling Zhu" is a relatively rare high-level refining material. It can be used directly to refine ordinary magic weapons, and can also be smelted to enhance the power of the life magic weapon in the body of the Jindan cultivator.
Under Chu Fengping's suggestion, Song Qingyu thought again and again, and finally spent a year to integrate the "Xuan Jing Ling Zhu" into her life magic weapon "Xuan Ming Jin Guang Sword" to enhance her fighting power.
After the smelting was successful, after the test just now, Song Qingyu found that the power of "Xuan Ming Jin Guang Sword" was about 20% higher than before. Seeing this effect that was better than she expected, Song Qingyu was also a little more relieved.
Just when Song Qingyu put away the "Xuanming Golden Light Sword" and fell from the sky, he had already noticed the movement here. Huang Siyuan and Song Yuanfang, who were waiting aside, hurriedly greeted him with a smile.
"Congratulations to my aunt on her release from confinement!"
"I didn't expect that Qingyu, your natal flying sword is now so powerful. It seems that your strength has increased a lot after more than a year of seclusion!"
"Sister-in-law, don't keep praising me like this. Without your help in finding ways to provide me with elixirs these years, my current cultivation level may still be at the second level of the golden elixir. There is no need to talk about improving my strength.
correct! You sent me a letter a few days ago asking if there was something urgent. Nothing major happened in the clan during my retreat, right? "
Huang Siwen Yanyuan nodded slightly, then continued to explain:
"There are no major events in the clan. We just received a letter from the sect a few days ago. The monsters from Northern Xinjiang have begun to move south. Senior Sister Xu asked us to go to the sect to discuss matters. Then we sent a letter asking when you will leave. close."
"What! The northern border monsters have moved south. As expected by the sect, the monster turmoil has come so far in advance.
Since the sect has sent a message, let's hurry over now to avoid Senior Sister Xu and the others waiting for a long time. "After hearing the news that the monsters from Northern Xinjiang were heading south, Song Qingyu suddenly had a look of anxiety on his face.
"Qingyu, don't be too anxious. It will take at least two months for the monsters from Northern Xinjiang to arrive in our country. I have already sent a letter to Senior Sister Xu to explain. I will wait until you come out of seclusion in the past few days. , we will go there together immediately."
"Well! Yuan Fang, please send a message to Yuan Li first, asking the monks from the Immortal Cultivation Family in Pingyang County to meet at Jinshanfang first, and notify all the Foundation Establishment families in Qinghe County to discuss matters at Chiyanfang in three days.
Remember, we must block the news of the monster going south, and tell them that if anyone leaks this matter in advance, we at Funiu Mountain will not forgive it easily when we find out. "
After hearing Huang Siyuan's reminder, Song Qingyu quickly calmed down, and quickly issued a few orders to Song Yuanfang who was aside. After he left in response, he turned around and said to Huang Siyuan:
"Sister-in-law, the monster turmoil this time seems a little different from the past. We should go to the sect early to investigate the situation so that we can deal with it!"
Zhao Mengli had warned Song Qingyu a long time ago that some changes had occurred in Jinyu Mountain in the north. Over the years, Song Qingyu had also received some bad news, and he was still a little worried about this monster turmoil.
"Well! Then I'll listen to you. Let's go to Guyang Mountain to see the situation first and then make a decision." Seeing that Song Qingyu's face was still a little solemn, Huang Siyuan didn't say anything more and just agreed.
In the years when Song Qingming was away, Huang Siyuan focused on improving her alchemy skills in addition to daily practice.
Occasionally, she would go to the "Tiandan City" in the world of immortal cultivation in the East China Sea to collect some rare alchemy materials from the Fuyun Mountains. She was quite busy with personal matters and did not interfere too much in family affairs.
After making an agreement with Huang Siyuan, Song Qingyu took out his natal flying sword, turned Huang Siyuan into a ray of light, and left Funiu Mountain to the southwest.
Not long after Song Qingyu and Huang Siyuan left, another white light flew from the east side of Funiu Mountain and landed directly on a barren mountain not far away, and then two figures, a man and a woman, appeared. (End of chapter)
