Chapter 729 Silver Armor, All-Spirit Puppet Array (asking for monthly votes)

The fact that Bai Yuxian had retreated to break through the Nascent Soul has always been the most secretive thing in the "Xiaoyao Sect". In recent years, the Xiaoyao Sect has been blocking the news and keeping it strictly confidential.

Even Song Qingming knew about this because Xu Ziyan had a good relationship with him and indirectly revealed a little to him.

However, it takes at least ten years to break through the Nascent Soul in retreat. Bai Yuxian has not appeared in public for these years. It is definitely impossible to completely hide it for a long time.

After Song Qingyu came back, she went to the sect several times but did not see Bai Yuxian, the head of the sect. Naturally, she also heard some rumors about her retreat to form a Nascent Soul.

However, she still had some doubts about this matter. It was not until Song Qingming said it directly to her face just now that Song Qingyu confirmed her previous guess.

Song Qingming nodded and confirmed: "Senior Sister Bai has been in seclusion for more than ten years. According to the time required for ordinary cultivators to condense the Nascent Soul, she should be out of seclusion in the next few years."

"Seventh Brother, do you think that Senior Sister Bai has a high chance of success in breaking through the Nascent Soul realm this time?"

Seeing this, Song Qingming shook his head and laughed at Song Qingyu: "Haha! Your seventh brother has no experience in breaking through the Nascent Soul, so how can I say such things casually.

Senior Sister Bai has a natural spiritual root talent and has already had the experience of breaking through the Nascent Soul once. Logically speaking, her chance of success this time should not be low.

It's just that breaking through the Nascent Soul realm is much more difficult than forming a pill. Many talented cultivators in the world of cultivation have been blocked at this step. I really can't say whether Senior Sister Bai can succeed this time.

No matter what the sect will do next We all need to plan ahead and make some preparations in advance. "

"Yes! Brother Qi always thinks farther than me. With you in the family, the family will definitely get better and better in the future."

Hearing Song Qingyu's flattery, Song Qingming couldn't help but shook his head slightly and said: "The development of the family is not just my business. You and Yuan Fang are also very important to the family.

Whether I am here or not in the future, I hope that the family can be carried forward in your hands. "

"There were only a dozen people on the mountain back then. We have come to this step by step. What can the family do now that is worse than it was then?

Don't worry, Brother Qi. Even if we are gone, I believe that Yuan Fang and others can take good care of the family. "Song Qingyu said, and a confident smile appeared on his face.

Seeing this, Song Qingming nodded slightly and said, "You are right. Each generation has its own mission. No matter what happens in the future, the family will always be handed over to the younger generations.

All we can do is try to pave the way for them!"

"Well! Anyway, no matter what happens, I will definitely listen to you.

Seventh brother, I will take care of my sister-in-law. You must have a lot of things to do after just coming out of retreat. You should go back and take care of your own things in the next few days!

I will notify you as soon as my sister-in-law comes out of retreat."

Seeing that Song Qingyu wanted to stay and protect Huang Siyuan in retreat, Song Qingming nodded slightly without saying much, and then turned around and walked towards his cave.

In the past few years, Song Qingming has been concentrating on retreating and trying to break through his cultivation. Although he has not succeeded yet,

If Huang Siyuan's breakthrough in realm today did not trigger the strange phenomenon of heaven and earth, and Song Qingming, who was retreating in the cave, suddenly felt the changes in the surrounding spiritual energy, I am afraid he would not come out so early.

Song Qingming, who had just returned to the cave, took two bottles of pills from the wooden shelf beside the hall outside, and then came to a newly opened stone chamber in the cave.

Although the area of ​​this stone chamber is not small, it is five or six feet long and wide, but it is very empty and there is almost nothing inside. There is only a small spirit gathering array in the middle of the stone chamber, which is emitting bursts of dazzling spiritual light.

Song Qingming walked directly to the "spirit gathering array", waved his hand to open a layer of restrictions outside, and then walked directly into the array.

In this operating "spirit gathering array", two people wearing black iron masks were sitting upright at this time, absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy and meditating.

Song Qingming came to the two people and handed over the two porcelain bottles he had just taken. The two masked men immediately reached out and took one of the porcelain bottles.

Then the two of them opened the porcelain bottles in unison, poured out a pill from it and threw it into their mouths, and continued to meditate and practice.

During the whole process, the two people wearing black iron masks did not say a word, as if they were controlled by someone, and they completed the action just now.

After giving the pills to the other party, Song Qingming released his spiritual sense to scan the two people sitting on the ground, and then a bit of satisfaction appeared on his face.

"Although a lot of pills have been consumed, the current cultivation speed is indeed not slow. As long as there is a sufficient supply of pills, you will catch up with me sooner or later."

The two people wearing black iron masks are not normal cultivators, but corpse puppets made by Song Qingming himself.

One of them is "Jinfeng", who has followed Song Qingming for many years. Now his cultivation has broken through to the fifth level of Jindan.

The other is another corpse puppet "Yinjia" that Song Qingming spent time to refine over the years. His cultivation is lower and he has just broken through the third level of Jindan.

At the beginning, Song Qingming wandered around the "Donghuang Country" cultivation world for more than half a year. Although he did not find the high-level fire attribute materials that he wanted to repair the formation the most, he also purchased a lot of good things.

In a large market in Liangzhou, Song Qingming happened to see someone selling a good quality "ghost pill" in a shop, so he spent a lot of spirit stones to buy it.

After returning to Weiguo, Song Qingming spent most of his time on refining corpse puppets in addition to daily cultivation. After spending more than a year, he finally used this "ghost pill" to refine his second corpse puppet, "Silver Armor".

Because he happened to have a bottle of "Flame Spirit Water" that he got from Duan Longshan's storage bag that year, after refining it with the secret method given by Li Xuanyi, Song Qingming didn't spend much time to improve the cultivation of "Silver Armor" to the third level of the Golden Pill realm.

The main reason why Song Qingming spent so much resources and energy to cultivate the second Golden Pill corpse puppet was to arrange the "Heavenly Corpse Puppet Array" that he got from the Heavenly Corpse Taoist that year.

After so many years of research, Song Qingming discovered that this "Heavenly Corpse Puppet Array" was not the original array of the Heavenly Corpse Taoist, but he copied it from an ancient array diagram that he accidentally got.

After obtaining the many secret manuals of martial arts left by the Taoist Tianshi, Song Qingming quickly found the original ancient formation diagram in it and discovered that the original power of this formation was even better.

However, this formation diagram was already a little incomplete, and Song Qingming tried but still failed to completely restore it.

In the end, he had no choice but to give up and settle for the next best thing. He transformed the original "Heavenly Corpse Puppet Array" through his own comprehension and obtained a new formation "Wanling Puppet Array".

The power of this formation is not much different from the original "Heavenly Corpse Puppet Array", but the arrangement requirements are much simpler. As long as there are three corpse puppets or puppet beasts of the same level, you can try to arrange a relatively simple formation.

Moreover, as the number of puppet beasts and corpse puppets increases, the power of the "Wanling Puppet Array" will become stronger and stronger. If there are more than a dozen Jindan corpse puppets of the same level to form a formation, even a Yuanying cultivator can fight with it.

However, for Song Qingming, this situation can only be thought about in his mind and it is difficult to actually realize it.

As for corpse puppets, because cultivators have limited spiritual awareness, they can usually only control one corpse puppet of the same level. Even though Song Qingming's spiritual awareness is much stronger than that of ordinary cultivators of the same level after practicing the "Soul Devouring Art", he can only control two at the same time at most.

If it is replaced with a puppet beast with weaker strength, Song Qingming can now control a lot of them at the same time, but the strength of the puppet beast controlling the formation will be weakened, and the power of the formation will also be weakened.

Moreover, puppet beasts above level three are basically treasured by large sects and are very rare on the market.

Song Qingming has been wandering around "Donghuang Country" for several years, and he has only seen a third-level low-grade puppet beast, and has not had the opportunity to purchase more high-level puppet beasts.

Even the "Donghuang Country" with abundant resources is like this, let alone remote places like the Floating Cloud Mountains.

It is not something that can be done overnight to collect enough puppet beasts to form a formation to fight against enemies of higher levels. Song Qingming can only try his best, and there is no way to ensure that he can do it.

Fortunately, Song Qingming understood the difficulty when he first got the "Ten Thousand Spirits Puppet Array" and did not force it. He was already very satisfied that he could arrange the simplest one.

After letting "Golden Wind" and "Silver Armor" stay in the inner room to practice alone, Song Qingming quickly came out and walked into a stone chamber next to him where his spirit insects and monsters were stored.

As soon as he entered the door, the "Golden Illusion Butterflies" that sensed Song Qingming's appearance surrounded him, and the "Ice and Fire Dragon" that was entrenched in a corner of the stone chamber also smelled a familiar smell and immediately jumped towards Song Qingming.

Seeing this, Song Qingming also hurriedly took out the elixir that he had prepared long ago, as well as a bottle of white spirit water brought from the secret realm of "Tianyuan Sect", and poured them into the sink next to him.

Seeing Song Qingming's move, the greedy "Ice and Fire Dragon" soon led a group of "Golden Illusion Butterflies" and rushed directly to the water tank. Not long after, they devoured all the spiritual objects brought by Song Qingming.

Ten years have passed, and these spiritual beasts and insects following Song Qingming have also undergone significant changes. The "Ice and Fire Dragon" and "Golden Illusion Butterfly" have improved their cultivation very quickly under the feeding of Song Qingming's white spiritual water, and are close to the peak of foundation building.

Even the "Sky Fire Peng" who practiced slower, with the help of a spiritual fruit that Huang Siyuan exchanged from the "Heavenly Pill Alliance" a few years ago, successfully broke through to the late stage of foundation building.

If these spiritual beasts practiced on their own in the wild, they would probably only be able to build their foundation for a short time at most. In recent years, they have been following Song Qingming to eat and drink well, and have never lacked elixirs and spiritual objects, and their cultivation speed has at least doubled.

However, they have also helped Song Qingming a lot over the years, especially the "Golden Illusion Butterfly" can quietly help explore the way and guard, and can also restrain a mid-stage Jindan cultivator when attacking in groups, and their strength is also not weak.

Although the initial investment of spiritual beasts is a bit large and it is difficult to see returns in a short period of time, if they are properly cultivated, their potential is much greater than that of dead things such as corpse puppets.

Song Qingming is now spending so much effort to cultivate them, and he also hopes that they can help him a lot in the future.

After taking care of his spiritual beasts, Song Qingming turned and came to the hall outside the cave, and collected some of the cultivation manuals that were scattered around the cave.

After tidying up his cave, Song Qingming did not choose to continue to sit down and practice, but came to the stone table beside him and took out a high-level spiritual talisman illustration to savor it carefully.

After returning from "Donghuang Country", the strength of the spirit beasts and corpse puppets around Song Qingming has increased significantly in recent years, but only his own cultivation has not changed much until now, and he is still stuck at the seventh level of Jindan.

Although Song Qingming, who returned to "Funiu Mountain", brought back a lot of elixirs and spiritual objects from the "Donghuang Country" cultivation world, he had already cultivated to the peak of the seventh level of Jindan three years ago.

However, in recent years, Song Qingming has tried to break through the realm several times, but found that he encountered a bottleneck that was difficult to touch, and several attempts ended in failure.

This bottleneck of the late Jindan is much more difficult than Song Qingming had imagined before. It is no wonder that among the Jindan cultivators Song Qingming knows, most people will be stuck at the sixth and seventh levels of Jindan for a long time, and very few people can quickly cultivate to the ninth level of Jindan.

After practicing for so many years, Song Qingming also knew that when one's cultivation level reaches a certain level, one cannot just practice hard to break through the level. In many cases, one needs to wait for an opportunity or a chance to successfully break through the bottleneck and make further progress.

Seeing that his own cultivation level could not break through quickly, Song Qingming changed his mind and gave up continuing to retreat. He planned to transfer his energy to other things first and then deal with it slowly.

This high-level talisman illustration book was also brought back by Song Qingming from the "Eastern Phoenix Country" cultivation world. It records a lot of high-level talismans above level three, and even has several fourth-level talismans.

Since the talisman making technique broke through to the third-level middle-grade, Song Qingming has suffered from not having too many high-level talisman illustration books in his hands in recent years, and rarely has the opportunity to improve his talisman making skills.

Last time in the "Eastern Phoenix Country" cultivation world, he happened to find a high-level talisman illustration book, which finally gave him the opportunity to make some progress in this aspect of talisman making.

In recent years, Song Qingming has not only drawn a lot of third-level middle-grade talismans, but also tried to make third-level upper-grade talismans.

However, so far, after spending several materials, he has only successfully drawn a slightly flawed inferior product, and has not really improved his talisman making skills to the third-level upper grade.

Although he has not successfully improved his talisman making skills, Song Qingming has great confidence in improving his talisman making skills after having this high-level spiritual talisman illustration.

After practicing Taoism for so many years, Song Qingming has always been quite fond of spiritual talismans. He always has a few useful spiritual talismans of high grade on him in case of emergency.

However, with the improvement of his own cultivation, Song Qingming has found it difficult to purchase third-level upper-grade spiritual talismans that are equal to his cultivation in the market in recent years.

In the "Xiaoyao Sect", the one with the highest talisman making skills is the law enforcement elder Li Wutong. Although he is already a third-level upper-grade talisman maker, due to the lack of talisman making materials in the Floating Cloud Mountains, Li Wutong rarely draws third-level upper-grade spiritual talismans.

Therefore, among the many Jindan elders in the "Xiaoyao Sect", few people hold high-level talismans such as the third-grade upper grade. Song Qingming had always wanted to exchange one from the sect but never succeeded.

Since it is difficult to get it outside, it is better to rely on oneself than to rely on others. So he might as well find a way to improve his talisman making skills, so that he can easily draw any talisman he wants in the future as long as he can find all the materials.

Improving talisman making skills can not only meet his needs in the future, but also take the extra talismans to exchange for other spiritual objects he needs. These are also very important for Song Qingming.

After carefully studying the talisman illustrations in his hand for a long time, Song Qingming suddenly stood up and took out a high-level talisman paper and spread it on the table, then picked up the talisman pen on the table and dipped some cinnabar on the side, and shifted his eyes to the blank talisman paper in front of him.

Then he adjusted his breath, recalled the steps he had just thought of in his mind again, and his eyes gradually became very focused.

As the spiritual light on his body moved, Song Qingming's mana suddenly poured into the talisman pen in his hand through his meridians, and began to control the talisman pen to move slowly on the talisman paper.

Three days and three nights passed quickly, and as the last stroke of the talisman pen in Song Qingming's hand fell, the runes that had been connected together instantly began to emit a flash of spiritual light.

Seeing this, Song Qingming immediately put down the talisman pen and pinched his hands, and quickly cast a spell to release a ban on the talisman paper, sealing all the spiritual light on it.

For high-level spiritual talismans above level three, because the spiritual power contained in the runes is very strong, even if they are stored in the storage bag, they can be easily sensed by others.

Therefore, when the talisman maker draws the talisman, he will finally arrange a small ban on it to cover up its aura, which is conducive to the cultivator to achieve unexpected effects when using it.

After completing this step, Song Qingming picked up the talisman in his hand and observed it carefully. Seeing that there was no flaw in the rune on it, he smiled with satisfaction.

"After spending so many high-level materials, it finally worked this time!"

Although he didn't succeed in his cultivation after such a long period of seclusion, he was still very happy that he successfully advanced to become a third-level upper-grade talisman maker.

Song Qingming put away the talisman in his hand and was about to go out for a walk, but he didn't expect that a sound transmission note happened to fly into his cave.

After opening the talisman and taking a look, Song Qingming's face suddenly showed some joy again. He hurriedly packed up the remaining talisman materials on the table, then walked out of the cave and quickly came to the "Huixian Pavilion" on the top of the mountain.

Song Qingming, who had just walked up to the third floor, looked up and saw Song Qingyu and Huang Siyuan, who had just come out of retreat, chatting. He immediately stepped forward to congratulate Huang Siyuan.

"Haha! I was just about to go out to take a look, but I didn't expect you to have come out of retreat in advance. It seems that your breakthrough this time is a little different, much smoother than mine back then."

Huang Siyuan, who had just broken through, was very happy at the moment. She nodded and smiled and replied: "I have indeed gained a lot from this retreat. Not only did I successfully break through my cultivation, but I also feel that the road ahead has become much clearer.

But speaking of it, these years of entering the world and experiencing ordinary life have indeed improved my character a lot, and helped me a lot when I broke through in retreat.

I also want to thank my husband for his guidance to me at the time, otherwise it would not be so easy for me to break through this time, and it would definitely be It will take a lot of time. "

Seeing Huang Siyuan suddenly bowed to thank him, Song Qingming hurriedly stepped forward and waved his hand, saying: "We have supported each other for many years, why should we be so polite.

Besides, not everyone can gain so much from practicing in the world. How much you can understand depends entirely on your own opportunities. You don't have to attribute all the credit to me. "

"Well! Brother Qi is right, sister-in-law, you see, I have been practicing with you for a long time, but I still can't bear it. Now it seems that I don't have this opportunity. "

Since returning to the family after traveling, Song Qingyu often saw Huang Siyuan going down the mountain to practice, and was curious to follow her several times.

However, compared with Huang Siyuan, Song Qingyu's experience in practicing in the world is obviously much worse. He doesn't have much patience in practicing. He just persisted for less than a month and then slowly slacked off.

At this moment, seeing that Huang Siyuan has finally gained something after practicing in the world for many years, Song Qingyu's face is both very envious and a little helpless.

Seeing the expression on Song Qingyu's face, Song Qingming immediately spoke to comfort him: "Qingyu, you are practicing the way of sword cultivation, which emphasizes decisiveness in killing. Entering the world to practice may not be useful for you, and you don't have to keep worrying about it.

You have a complete sword cultivation inheritance, and you can at least practice to the Nascent Soul stage. This is your greatest opportunity in practice. Why envy these things anymore."

"Yes! Qingyu, you practice the way of sword cultivation. Whether it is fighting or practicing, you are half a point better than us. In the future, you will definitely have a greater chance of condensing the Nascent Soul than us. Don't envy my little opportunity."

Hearing this, Song Qingyu immediately let go of his heart and smiled: "Haha! I just can't help but envy it. My sister-in-law said it so nicely, how dare I not obey.

Seventh brother, come and sit here quickly. Today I brewed the spiritual tea myself. Try it first to see how it tastes!"

Seeing Song Qingyu holding a cup of freshly brewed spiritual tea in front of him, Song Qingming hurriedly took it and found an empty seat to sit down.

The three of them hadn't been together for a long time, and this time they met Huang Siyuan's breakthrough, so they celebrated it.

After chatting for a while, Song Qingming discussed with the two about the family's future development to the north, and wanted to hear the two girls' opinions.

Huang Siyuan and Song Qingyu both supported Song Qingming's idea of ​​developing to the north, and gave a lot of ideas. The three of them quickly worked out a rough action plan together.

(Finally, the Mid-Autumn Festival lottery event has reached its last day, and the lottery will be held tomorrow. Book friends who haven't joined the group should hurry up.) (End of this chapter)
