Chapter 728 Ten years later, heading north (asking for monthly tickets)

After leaving the "Taixu Sect", Song Qingming did not return directly to the Fuyun Mountains to cultivate immortality. Instead, he chose to visit Nanzhou and the two nearby states.

Since the monster turmoil, Song Qingming not only harvested a lot of monster materials during the turmoil, but also obtained many high-level elixirs with Huang Siyuan in the "Tianyuan Sect" secret realm.

Not long ago, when I was visiting Luo Li in the East China Sea Immortal Realm, I found the cave of the "Tianshi Taoist" and made another small fortune.

Song Qingming, who had no shortage of spiritual stones and high-level materials in his hands, finally made a trip to the "East Phoenix Kingdom" to cultivate immortality. Naturally, he couldn't just go back empty-handed.

After spending more than half a year, Song Qingming went to many large markets no less than "Tiandan City", and exchanged the spiritual objects in his hands for many of the cultivation elixirs and other spiritual objects he needed.

Unfortunately, the only thing that disappointed him was that he wanted to find a high-level fire-attribute material to repair the "Yin-Yang Eight-pole Array" in his hand, but he still failed to do so for more than half a year.

In the world of immortal cultivation in the "East Phoenix Kingdom", materials that reach the third level of quality are not particularly rare spiritual objects, but they are not available everywhere in the market.

Song Qingming searched so many large-scale markets, but only saw a few lower-quality third-level medium-grade fire attribute materials.

If such low-quality materials were used to repair the "Yin-Yang Eight-pole Array", the power of the array would be damaged and it would be impossible to restore it to its original level. Song Qingming thought about it but still did not give in.

After arriving at the boundary of Liangzhou, Song Qingming's storage magic weapon on his waist was already filled with many spiritual objects, and there were not many spiritual stones he brought with him. He then took the initiative to return to the world of immortal cultivation in Fuyun Mountains. .

Although he was alone when he came back, Song Qingming was already very familiar with the route after traveling there several times, and he crossed the "Huanhai Desert" and returned to Weiguo without encountering any danger.

Song Qingming, who successfully returned to "Funiu Mountain", brought back many high-level cultivation elixirs and shared many with Song Qingyu and Huang Siyuan.

The three of them soon went into seclusion to practice, and returned to their usual days of hard practice.

Time flies and years fly by.

In the blink of an eye, another ten years of peaceful days passed.

——

Ten years later, in a cave on the border of the Wu Kingdom in the southern part of the Fuyun Mountains.

A young man in green clothes, with a face focused on concentrating his magic power, and a faint golden light emitting from his body, is obviously trying to reach the golden elixir realm.

A moment later, the young man who was trying to control his mana to condense the golden elixir suddenly lost his mana and spat out a mouthful of blood. Then the golden light covering his body gradually dissipated.

Feeling that the golden elixir that had just condensed in his body had slowly dispersed and re-melted into elixir liquid, the man in green who failed to form the elixir couldn't help but sigh with regret.

"What Uncle Seventh said is true. The step of forming pills is really not that easy to get through. Even if I have better spiritual root qualifications, I can't go further than them in forming pills for the first time."

The man in green sat there and thought for a long time. After recalling his failure, he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

Then he picked up a healing elixir that he had prepared aside, threw it directly into his mouth, and began to refine the elixir to treat his injuries.

Half a month later, he felt that his injuries had improved a lot. The man in green walked out of the cave door. After taking a look at the long-lost sunshine outside, he turned around and came to another cave not far away.

"Your injuries haven't been healed yet. Why did they come out so quickly? Do you not want to form any more pills?"

Before the man in green could release the transmission talisman he had just held, a voice suddenly came from the cave, and then a figure wearing a green robe that covered most of his face appeared in front of him out of thin air.

Seeing the man in green robe in front of him, the man in green robe hurriedly stepped forward and bowed his hands in salute: "Junior is incompetent. He failed to form the elixir successfully and let the senior down."

Hearing this, the man in green robe waved his hands with an indifferent expression and said: "I have told you a long time ago that forming pills is not that easy. I had expected that you would fail.

Don't worry, I said I would make you succeed in forming the elixir, and I will definitely do it.

But don’t forget what you promised me before, otherwise even if you succeed in forming pills in the future, I will still have a way to get you back to the foundation-building realm. "

"Senior, don't worry. Although I have a low cultivation level, I am not an ungrateful person. My life was saved by senior in the first place. Otherwise, I would have died long ago. Even if I risk my life to repay senior, I will not do it." Frowning."

Seeing the man in green robe in front of him speaking out his words with a firm face, the man in green robe was unmoved and chuckled: "Haha! There are many ungrateful people in this world. It's not you who can just say a few words." will believe it.

If you want to repay me, you must first have this qualification.

alright! I have something to do and I have to go out. You should go back to the cave to recuperate first. You can take these elixirs first. When your injury is almost healed, come and find me! "

After speaking, the man in green robe threw two white porcelain bottles to the man in green, then ignored him and turned around and walked back to his cave.

The man in green who got the porcelain bottle looked at the man in green who was walking away without saying anything. He just bowed his hands and bowed to the man's departing back, then turned around and left.

——

Weiguo, Qinghe County, Funiu Mountain.

On this day, a red sound transmission talisman representing an emergency message flew directly to the towering "Funiu Mountain" and landed in the hands of a cultivator of the Song family who was guarding the Law Enforcement Hall.

The Song family disciple who received the communication talisman saw that the talisman in his hand was an emergency communication talisman, and hurriedly dropped the things in his hands and ran straight to the place where the family elders were in the inner room.

Soon, the sound transmission talisman came to the hands of Song Yuanfang who was busy in the family's "meeting room".

"Husband, what happened? Why did you suddenly send such an urgent talisman for help?"

Huang Leqing, who was sitting aside to help Song Yuanfang with his affairs, saw the red sound transmission talisman in her husband's hand and immediately asked curiously.

After becoming the Jindan Immortal Clan, the Song family has dominated the northeast of Weiguo for more than a hundred years. Since the monster turmoil, the family territory has been very peaceful and nothing major has happened. In recent years, such urgent sound transmission talismans have rarely been seen.

Song Yuanfang opened the sound transmission note, glanced at the content inside, and replied with a slightly solemn expression: "It is a letter for help from Jinshanfang. A third-level demon king suddenly appeared near the market and is attacking the mountain protection formation.

The situation is a bit urgent. I have to tell the ancestor first. I'll trouble you with the matter here, Madam!" After Song Yuanfang finished speaking, he left the "meeting room" and walked quickly to the top of the mountain.

After a while, Song Yuanfang came to the cave of Song Qingming on the top of the mountain. He looked at the cave that was in retreat and there seemed to be no change. Song Yuanfang thought about it and turned around and came to the cave of Song Qingyu not far away, and sent the sound transmission note in his hand.

Half an hour later, outside the "Jinshanfang" in Pingyang County.

A white rhinoceros several feet tall, covered with hard armor, was leading hundreds of low-level demon beasts outside the market, constantly attacking the market formation that blocked their progress.

The pressure emanating from the leading white rhino has reached the middle stage of the Golden Core. Every time it attacks, the mountain protection formation of "Jinshanfang" vibrates violently.

Hundreds of "Jinshanfang" monks hiding in the market saw the leading "White Rhino Demon King" outside, and all of them had some fear on their faces. They did not dare to go out to stop him and could only hide in the formation to organize the monks to operate the formation to resist.

"Jinshanfang" is located in the more remote northeast direction. Since its establishment, except for the monster riots once a hundred years, it has rarely been attacked by monster kings above level three.

This "White Rhino Demon King" in front of him suddenly appeared from nowhere. A few days ago, he first killed several teams of wandering cultivators who went out to hunt monsters nearby, and now he actually led his monster army to attack "Jinshanfang" directly in the south.

On the wall of the market, several foundation-building monks stationed here were watching everything happening in front of them with worry, but they were somewhat helpless.

"Brother Cao, this demon king is so powerful, I'm afraid we can't hold out for long. If the formation is broken, you and I will be doomed. Should we use the talisman to stop the demon king and buy some more time?"

"No! This talisman can only be used when it is absolutely necessary. Now is not the time. Hold on to the formation first. When the ancestors from Funiushan come, we will be safe."

A middle-aged man standing in front, named Cao Linglong, is the current head of the Cao family in Pingyang County. He is also the cultivator with the highest cultivation level in "Jinshanfang" and has cultivated to the ninth level of foundation building.

Hearing a foundation building cultivator next to him propose to use the third-level low-grade talisman stored in the market, Cao Linglong only thought about it for a moment and immediately shook his head to reject the other party's proposal.

This third-level talisman stored in the market was a spiritual object given by the Jindan ancestor of "Funiushan" in the past, and it was explained that it could only be used at critical moments.

Even though he knew that the mountain protection formation outside was already somewhat dangerous, Cao Linglong still gritted his teeth and shook his head, not hastily choosing to use this important trump card immediately.

"Fellow Daoist Cao, now is not the time to act on impulse. I hope you can think more about other cultivators in the market and stop hesitating."

Just as the other party was trying hard to persuade him, a sword light suddenly appeared in the south of "Jinshanfang" and flew towards this side quickly. Seeing this scene, Cao Linglong immediately showed a happy face.

"Haha! Reinforcements are coming. I wonder if it is the Jindan ancestor from Funiu Mountain who is coming this time?"

Seeing that the speed of this golden light was obviously beyond the scope of the foundation-building cultivator, it was definitely a Jindan ancestor. Before Cao Linglong could speak, a foundation-building cultivator next to him shouted happily.

Hearing the other party's words, Cao Linglong reached out and touched the beard at the corner of his mouth, and replied confidently: "This sword light is so sharp, it must be a master who practices sword cultivation. The person who came should be the Qingyu Patriarch of Funiushan.

It is rumored that the Qingyu Patriarch's cultivation has reached the peak of the fifth level of the Golden Core, and she is only one step away from breaking through the sixth level of the Golden Core. Moreover, she practices sword cultivation, and she can not lose even when facing the late Golden Core Great Demon King.

Today, the ancestor came to help in person. This demon king is afraid that he will seek his own death. Don't miss such a good opportunity, and prepare to fight. We can also take this opportunity to show off in front of the ancestor."

Hearing Cao Linglong's encouragement, the several foundation-building cultivators standing beside him were all shocked, and hurriedly sent orders to the many Qi-refining cultivators stationed in the market below to prepare to counterattack the army of monsters outside.

Seeing Song Qingyu riding on a flying sword and coming towards him from a distance with a sharp sword light, the "White Rhino Demon King" who had not been able to break through the "Jinshanfang" mountain protection formation immediately changed direction and blocked the opponent's sword light with the extremely hard horn on his head.

"Evil beast! How dare you invade my Song family's territory."

Song Qingyu, who had just arrived holding the "Xuanming Golden Light Sword", glanced at the "White Rhino Demon King" in front of him, and angrily shouted that the flying sword in his hand was divided into five again, and slashed at the opponent from five different directions again.

Facing Song Qingyu's sharp attack, the "White Rhino Demon King" was not in a hurry. A colorful spiritual light shot out from the top of the horn on his head, turning into a shield to block his body, trying to forcibly take Song Qingyu's attack.

However, it did not expect that Song Qingyu's cultivation was obviously higher than it, and this colorful shield did not completely block the opponent's attack. After the sword light penetrated the shield, it left several scars on the "White Rhino Demon King".

Seeing that the opponent's flying sword was so sharp, it actually broke through the defense shield that he was proud of so easily. The "White Rhino Demon King" was immediately shocked, and directly abandoned the army of monsters behind him, turned around and fled directly to the north.

Seeing that the opponent had just fought with him for a few rounds and then retreated directly, it was somewhat beyond Song Qingyu's expectations, so he hurriedly stepped on the flying sword to chase him.

The two of them chased him for nearly a hundred miles while running and fighting. Seeing that they were about to go deep into the Floating Cloud Mountains, Song Qingyu reluctantly stopped chasing.

Although the magical power of this "White Rhino Demon King" was ordinary, it also had a defensive magic weapon hidden on its body that was quite powerful.

In addition, the demon king's body was also very powerful. Even if he was hit by dozens of swords from Song Qingyu, he only suffered some minor injuries that were not fatal, and finally escaped successfully.

After failing to kill the opponent successfully, Song Qingyu showed a little regret on his face, and did not stay too long to control the flying sword under his feet to return to "Jinshanfang".

When Song Qingyu came back, Cao Linglong and others stationed in the market had already led the cultivators to repel the attack of those low-level monsters and drove them all back to the Floating Cloud Mountains in the north.

Seeing Song Qingyu returning alone on a flying sword, several people hurried forward and bowed to him.

"Junior greets the ancestor!"

After Song Qingyu glanced at the battlefield below, he directly asked Cao Linglong: "You should be from the Cao family, what are the casualties this time?"

Cao Linglong heard this and immediately replied:

"Reporting to the senior, the demon king came a little suddenly this time. Although we activated the mountain protection formation in time, there are still many cultivators and mortals nearby who failed to retreat to the market in time and died tragically at the hands of the monsters.

In addition to the subsequent battle with the monsters, a total of 79 cultivators and more than 260 mortals were killed and injured this time. The injured have been sent to the rear treasury for treatment."

"All cultivators who died in the battle, whether they are nearby family cultivators or independent cultivators living in the market, will be compensated according to the rules of the market, and the injured will also be promptly Give them healing pills when they are done.

After you have dealt with it, remember to submit a copy of the list and account to Funiu Mountain for backup and archiving. This matter cannot be delayed.

After all, Jinshanfang is still the front line of Fuyun Mountain Range. In the future, you should send more cultivators to explore the movements of monsters and be prepared in time. Don't be careless like this time. "

While Song Qingyu was speaking, he looked at Cao Linglong with a hint of coldness, which made the head of the Cao family feel an invisible pressure behind him. He nodded repeatedly and said:

"Don't worry, ancestor, we will definitely strengthen our vigilance in the future and will not let monsters succeed so easily. "

Seeing this, Song Qingyu glanced at a few people, and without saying anything more, he moved his magic power and turned into a light and disappeared directly on the spot.

After Song Qingyu left, Cao Linglong and his men, who were already sweating slightly on their foreheads, immediately breathed a sigh of relief, looked at each other, and hurriedly turned around and walked towards the location of the Fangshi Treasury.

After leaving "Jinshanfang", Song Qingyu rushed back to Qinghe County. She had just passed through the "Funiu Mountain" mountain protection formation when she suddenly saw a burst of colorful rays of light on the top of the mountain.

"Could this be the breakthrough of the seventh brother's cultivation?" Seeing the abnormal celestial phenomenon on the top of the mountain, Song Qingyu hurriedly controlled the flying sword under her feet to approach the location of the rays of light.

After returning from the "Donghuang Kingdom" cultivation world, Song Qingming brought back a lot of elixirs and spiritual objects needed for cultivation. The three Jindan ancestors of the Song family have also made considerable progress in their cultivation in the past ten years.

Among them, Song Qingming and Huang Siyuan's cultivation levels have been successfully improved to the peak bottleneck. As early as a year ago, they had retreated to try to break through their own cultivation realms.

Although they both retreated to break through their cultivation levels, Song Qingming only broke through a small realm in cultivation from the seventh level of Jindan to the eighth level of Jindan. The difficulty was much easier than Huang Siyuan's breakthrough from the third level of Jindan to the fourth level of Jindan and directly leaped to the middle stage of Jindan.

Therefore, after seeing the colorful rays of light on the top of the mountain, Song Qingyu's first reaction was that the one who caused this strange phenomenon should be Song Qingming, who had chosen to retreat earlier.

However, when she came under the rays of light, Song Qingyu found that her previous guess was a little wrong. This ray of light did not come from the cave where Song Qingming was retreating, but from another cave not far away.

Seeing a green figure standing not far in front of the cave, Song Qingyu, who had just arrived here, immediately smiled and walked over quickly.

"Seventh brother! Just now I thought you made this noise, but I didn't expect that it was my sister-in-law who broke through the cultivation first. It seems that we two need to work harder in cultivation, otherwise we will be caught up by my sister-in-law sooner or later."

Song Qingming, who was looking at the rays of light in the sky, smiled and shook his head when he heard the words: "When you have reached the Jindan realm, many times you still need to see how much you understand about cultivation to break through.

Otherwise, if the opportunity has not arrived, even if you practice hard, it is impossible to be one step ahead of others.

Don’t think that I am not far from breaking through the cultivation level, but a little difference can lead to a thousand miles. If I can’t find the opportunity to break through the cultivation level, it will be difficult for me to achieve anything even if I retreat for ten years.

However, we were not optimistic about Siyuan’s retreat at the beginning. Unexpectedly, she got the opportunity and realized the opportunity to break through the bottleneck and succeeded at once.

You are right. If the opportunity really comes in the future, it will not be strange for Siyuan to surpass you and me. "

After Song Qingming finished speaking, he saw that there was nothing to do here, and turned around and patted Song Qingyu’s shoulder who was still thinking. The two quickly walked towards the "Huixian Pavilion" not far away.

"Yuan Fang came up just now. I heard him say that you went to Jinshanfang. How is the situation over there? ”

Hearing Song Qingming asking about the "Jinshanfang", Song Qingyu's face changed slightly and slowly said: "I don't know where a demon king in the middle stage of Jindan came and besieged the market, scaring the people of the Cao family.

I didn't want to fight, but that guy was so cunning. As soon as he fought with me, he immediately fled to the Floating Cloud Mountains. I chased him all the way but couldn't do anything to him.

Although the strength of this demon king is average, his intelligence is not inferior to that of the Yunhe demon king in the past. He will decisively escape if he knows he can't win. Although I drove him away this time, I'm afraid he will come again next time. "

After Song Qingming thought for a moment, he said directly: "This demon has never appeared before. It should be a demon king from outside with no background.

When Siyuan comes out of retreat, we will find an opportunity to go to the north together to see if we can find its lair and kill this demon. Otherwise, with this hidden danger, it will be difficult for us to rest assured at home next time we go out.

Although Jinshanfang is a place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack, it is still too close to Pingyang County. Every time it is attacked by monsters, it will affect nearby cultivators and mortals.

Now that we have enough manpower, we should find a way to set up more defense lines to block the monster army in the north and solve this problem. Otherwise, the next time the monsters cause unrest, Pingyang County will fall into crisis again. "

"Seventh Brother, do you mean that we should take the initiative to attack north? "Hearing what Song Qingming said, Song Qingyu asked in surprise.

Since the Weiguo cultivation world was unified by the "Xiaoyao Sect", it has been facing the threat of northern monsters for thousands of years. Except for a few times when it has some advantages, it has been at a disadvantage most of the time.

Under the leadership of the "Xiaoyao Sect", the Weiguo cultivators have basically been passively defending in recent years, and rarely take the initiative to go deep into the Floating Cloud Mountains to compete with monsters for territory.

Seeing that Song Qingyu understood what he meant, Song Qingming immediately nodded slightly and said: "The last time the monsters were in turmoil, the sect severely damaged the Jinyu Mountain monster clan. Now their strength has not fully recovered. It is the best time for us to develop northward.

Sister Bai has been in seclusion for so long, it is estimated that she is not far from breaking through the Nascent Soul realm. If she can successfully advance to the Nascent Soul realm this time, the sect will certainly begin to expand its territory, and we must also prepare in advance. "

Song Qingyu heard this and said in confusion: "Seventh Brother, Sister Bai is really breaking through the Nascent Soul realm after being in seclusion for so long.

Last time I went to the sect, I specifically asked Brother Fang about this, but he was hesitant and didn't explain clearly, so I thought I guessed wrong." (End of this chapter)
