Chapter 767 Mysterious Stone, Encountering a Good Person

"Senior, I made a mistake. Please don't argue with me. It was my lack of foresight that made me offend you. Your Excellency, if you have a lot of money, please spare me!"

Seeing this sudden scene, Song Qingming's face still showed no change in expression, staring at the other person closely as if looking at a dead person.

"Looking at the loud tone you spoke just now, why don't you even have the courage to do so? It's useless to give you a chance!"

After Song Qingming uttered a sentence with a cold face, the "ice and fire dragon" who had already been unable to hold back immediately turned into an ice arrow and rushed straight towards the fat-faced monk.

"Senior, please spare your life!"

Seeing this situation, the fat-faced monk who had been kowtowing and begging for mercy quickly cast a spell and picked up the magical weapon with a look of helplessness, and jumped up to block the attack of the "ice and fire dragon".

Unexpectedly, the golden sword magic weapon he just took out was hit by the "ice and fire dragon", and immediately formed thick ice cubes and fell from mid-air to the ground.

Seeing that his magic weapon was suddenly frozen and unable to control it for a moment, the fat-faced monk's expression suddenly changed. He no longer had the courage to deal with the "ice and fire dragon" attack, so he turned around and fled to the rear.

Seeing the fat-faced monk turn around and run away as soon as they met him, the "ice and fire dragon" who had just exchanged hands with him was immediately very angry and turned into a blue aura and quickly chased after him.

Song Qingming, on the other hand, still stood there and looked at the other person from a distance. He had no intention of chasing him and directly handed the person over to the "Ice Fire Jiao".

While Song Qingming, who was not far away, was paying attention to the fat-faced monk who was escaping, the other three monks from the "Golden Sword Sect" present exchanged glances with each other and began to slowly retreat.

"Did I say you could leave?"

But what the three of them didn't expect was that just after they took a dozen steps back, a cold voice appeared in their ears, forcing the three of them to stop with helpless expressions.

The middle-aged Confucian scholar with the highest level of cultivation, when he heard the cold words from Song Qingming's mouth, he could only look helpless and cupped his hands and said: "This senior, Junior Brother Hu just said such arrogant words, he deserves to be taught a lesson by senior. He asked for it all.

We haven't offended our seniors in the slightest since we got here, so please let me go.

Senior, please rest assured that the three of us will keep tight-lipped about what happened today and will never tell anyone else. We are willing to make an oath here so that senior can feel at ease. "

"Swear! I think it won't be so troublesome! It's actually very simple to make me feel at ease, all you need is you."

Before Song Qingming could finish what he said, the three members of the "Golden Sword Sect", led by a middle-aged Confucian scholar, suddenly turned around and fled quickly.

Even his master "Yufeng Zhenren" ignored him without any scruples. The three middle-aged Confucian scholars also knew that Song Qingming would not let them go easily. They did not choose to continue begging for mercy but turned around and ran away decisively.

The strength gap between the Foundation Establishment monks and the Golden Core monks was too big, and the three of them knew that no matter which direction they ran, they would definitely be overtaken by each other.

We can only act separately and try our luck.

Seeing them running so fast, Song Qingming's face suddenly showed a hint of anger. Then he waved his hand to summon a large group of spirit insects and directed them to chase the three people who were escaping.

After years of training and devouring a lot of "Ten Thousand Spirits Dew", many of Song Qingming's "Golden Fantasy Butterflies" have broken through to the third level, and their strength has also improved greatly compared to before.

Just dealing with a few foundation-building monks, these "Golden Fantasy Butterflies" didn't need to expend much effort at all.

After only escaping for a few hundred feet, the three members of the "Golden Knife Sect" were caught up by the "Golden Fantasy Butterfly" behind them. Except for the middle-aged Confucian scholar in the late stage of foundation building who persisted a little longer, The other two people died in the hands of spiritual insects in less than half a quarter of an hour.

After these three people were dealt with by "Golden Fantasy Butterfly", "Ice Fire Dragon", who had chased them not far away, ran back with a storage bag in his mouth, shaking his head and looking happy.

After putting away all the storage bags of the people on the ground, Song Qingming put the spiritual pets around him back into the "Spirit Beast Bag" before turning around and coming to the still stunned old man in yellow.

Only a quarter of an hour had passed since the four people escaped from the "Golden Knife Gate" and were all killed.

During this period, Song Qingming did not even take action himself. He only relied on his spiritual pets to kill all four foundation-building monks. The strength he displayed also left the old man in yellow stunned.

He knew that Song Qingming's strength was unfathomable. Even though he was very scared at this moment, he no longer had the courage to escape. He could only look at Song Qingming who was walking towards him with a hint of fear.

"Thank you for saving your life, senior. I did have no choice but to escape here just now because I was chased by them for no reason. I didn't mean to disturb my senior. I hope you can forgive me."

Those people slandered me for taking their things, but they actually wanted to take this thing away from me. If you don't dislike it, senior, consider this thing given to you by my junior to repay the great kindness of saving my life. "

After the old man in yellow finished speaking, a palm-sized green gourd with aura appeared in his hand, and then he cast a spell and sent it directly to Song Qingming.

Facing a third-level low-grade spiritual object that the old man in yellow took out to thank him, Song Qingming just glanced at it slightly, then waved it back and then said directly to it:

"I have no interest in knowing what happened between you and them. I didn't kill them just to get something from you. You don't have to worry about these things.

I have a question to ask you. As long as you can answer it honestly, you can leave later.

If the answer dissatisfies me, it’s hard to say what will happen next. You are also a person who has been practicing for many years, so you should be able to understand what I mean! . "

Facing Song Qingming's intentional knocking, the old man in yellow nodded quickly like a chicken pecking at rice, and replied respectfully:

"Senior, just speak up if you have anything to say. I will definitely tell you everything you know. If you dare to deceive your senior, even if you die in the hands of your senior, I deserve it."

After hearing the answer from the old man in yellow, Song Qingming nodded with a smile and continued to ask: "My question is actually very simple. You only need to tell me how you found my hiding place when you first came here." That's it for me.

Let me remind you again, I am not an ordinary monk who has no experience. If you want to say something that happened to happen to me, then there is no need to answer. "

The cave where Song Qingming practiced in seclusion was located in a remote valley, and there were not many monks passing by.

In addition, there is a third-level concealment array specially arranged by him outside the cave. Even if the Jindan monk passes above the valley, it is difficult to see the clues below.

The old man in yellow clothes in front of him has only reached the seventh level of General Building. Logically speaking, even if he happened to pass by here, it would be difficult for him to find Song Qingming in a while.

But the other party not only arrived outside the cave accurately, but also discovered the hidden magic circle arranged outside. This was obviously not a coincidence, and it also aroused some interest in Song Qingming's heart, making him eager to know what was going on. What's going on.

"Senior, what I don't know is that I am actually a third-level low-level formation mage. Although my formation skills are not as good as those of my predecessor, I still have some unique insights of my own.

When I had just escaped the pursuit of these people, I had relied on my keenness in battle tactics to arrive here, and I happened to discover the hiding place of my senior.

The juniors don’t dare to deceive the seniors. This is a classic book written by me for many years of studying formations. The seniors will know it at a glance! "After the old man in yellow finished speaking, a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in his hand, and a formation book appeared, and he handed it to Song Qingming respectfully.

When he just mentioned his own formation level, the old man in yellow had a look of confidence on his face unknowingly. The skill of being a third-level formation master was the thing he was most proud of besides his cultivation. .

In the world of cultivating immortals, although there are some monks with extraordinary talents, they are able to transcend their own cultivation and upgrade their skills in cultivating immortals to a higher level.

However, this type of monk is extremely rare, especially for high-level skills such as formations, which are difficult to practice. Very few foundation-building monks have such talent to become a third-level low-level formation master.

In the entire Weiguo Immortal Cultivation World, except for golden elixir monks like Song Qingming and Bai Yuxian, there are only two or three foundation-building monks who can upgrade their formation skills to the third level like the old man in yellow.

Since his formation skills broke through to the third level, the old man in yellow has made a bit of a reputation outside these years. Even if he meets the Golden Core cultivator, he will be somewhat polite to him after knowing his identity.

Sure enough, after hearing the explanation of the old man in yellow, Song Qingming's eyes did show a slight change, and he said unexpectedly:

"Oh! You are also a third-level formation mage. This really makes me look down on you."

After taking a glance at the formation book handed over by the old man in yellow, Song Qingming quickly saw a lot of records of various high-level formation arrangements and various methods of cracking it.

It has to be said that the old man in yellow is indeed somewhat talented in formations. Some of the personal opinions on formations marked in the classics even made Song Qingming, a third-level mid-level formation master, unable to help but praise him a few times after reading it. sentence.

If this classic is really written by the old man in yellow, then the opponent's formation level is indeed very likely to have broken through to the third level.

Seeing that Song Qingming seemed to be fascinated, the old man in yellow on the side quickly smiled and said: "Senior, this classic was originally passed down by the ancestors of this junior generation. Over the years, after this junior generation broke through to the third level of formation mage, it has been re-edited and improved a lot. .

I still have the classics at home. If the seniors like it, you can just take this one. It will not have any impact on the juniors. "

"Haha! You are really thoughtful."

"However, although you are a third-level low-level formation mage, the formation I just set up is not an ordinary third-level formation. You can find the clues in it, and it must not be just for this reason!"

After Song Qingming praised the other party, he changed the subject and gently shook his head at the old man in yellow, obviously still not satisfied with his answer.

Seeing Song Qingming holding the formation book in his hand, he cast a somewhat displeased look at him. The old man in yellow's face suddenly changed, and he hurried forward with a look of horror and fell to the ground.

"Senior, forgive me, I just discovered this place. In addition to being an array master, I also had the help of this thing, and I was lucky enough to find it here.

The junior just didn't have time to finish what he said. He didn't mean to deceive the senior. I hope the senior won't argue with him. "

After the old man in yellow finished speaking, he lightly touched the storage bag on his waist, and a third-level array disk suddenly appeared in his hand.

The old man in yellow, who was holding the array plate, poured mana into the array plate. A black stone the size of a thumb suddenly emerged from the array plate, and then slowly flew to Song Qingming under the control of the old man in yellow. .

"What is this? Where did you find it?"

Seeing the black stone in front of him, Song Qingming's consciousness scanned and found that there was no spiritual energy on it. It was obviously not an ordinary magic weapon or magic weapon, which also made his face look a little more confused.

Upon hearing Song Qingming's inquiry, the old man in yellow hurriedly shook his head and replied with an honest face: "This stone was found by the ancestors of the younger generation from a incomplete magic weapon that was circulated in the city. The younger generation doesn't know the specific origin.

For so many years, the younger generation has been searching around in ancient books to find out its origin, but what is a little shameful is that nothing has been gained about it. To this day, I still don’t know the origin of this thing.

Although this stone is not a powerful magic weapon, it does have a unique ability to identify formations. Especially when used with the formation disk, as long as there is a hidden formation within a radius of several miles, it will produce special spiritual energy fluctuations. , rarely make mistakes.

When the junior just passed by here, it was precisely because of the sudden reaction of this object that he suspected that someone might have arranged a formation below, so he looked for it. "

After hearing this, Song Qingming took the somewhat mysterious black stone in front of him, and then slowly covered the stone with his own magic power.

As Song Qingming cast the spell, a burst of spiritual light suddenly began to emit from the black stone.

After a while, Song Qingming, who was holding the black stone in his hand, felt a special spiritual energy coming from the distance, in the direction of the cave where he had just come out.

Unexpectedly, this seemingly inconspicuous black stone actually has the special ability to sense the spiritual energy of the formation. Song Qingming has never heard of such a strange object after practicing for so many years.

After it was confirmed that what the old man in yellow said was true, the displeasure on Song Qingming's face softened slightly, and he turned around and said:

"You dare to come here just because you have doubts. What if it's not the formation I arranged, but other forbidden formations that come with this secret realm?"

"this."

Facing Song Qingming's careful questioning, the old man in yellow could only sigh with an ugly look on his face, and then continued to explain helplessly:

"To be honest, this junior was chased all the way by these people before. He couldn't even use the teleportation token to leave the secret realm in advance. He was already desperate.

If we go further, even if we are lucky enough to escape into the inner hall, I am afraid that with the junior's foundation-building level, he will not survive.

Apart from coming down and gambling on my luck, there is really no other better choice for me.

Fortunately, God favored me and allowed me to meet my senior, and I saved my life. No matter what my senior thought, I will repay this life-saving grace no matter what I do.

If you have any instructions from me, please speak up. I am willing to follow you on horseback and do whatever you can to repay your life-saving kindness. "

Hearing that the old man in yellow was getting more and more energetic as he talked, and actually wanted to take advantage of him in the secret realm, Song Qingming felt helpless, and quickly waved to him, and dismissed his thoughts.

"I want to enter the inner hall next, but I'm afraid you don't have the guts to go in with me, so you don't have to think too much about it?

This thing is of some use to me. If you want to repay your kindness, just give me this stone.

Don't worry, I won't take your things for nothing. These spiritual stones will be treated as if I bought this thing with you. Are you willing? "

After Song Qingming finished speaking, a white light flashed in his hand, and another spirit stone bag appeared, and then he threw it to the old man in yellow.

He took the spirit stone bag and opened it. There were dozens of shining middle-grade spirit stones inside, totaling five to six thousand yuan. The old man in yellow also had a look of surprise on his face when he saw so many spirit stones. , quickly nodded to Song Qingming and agreed.

"Since the senior values ​​this thing, the junior is willing to dedicate it to the senior. However, the junior is really afraid to accept this spiritual stone. I hope the senior can take it back."

Although the black stone that Song Qingming wanted was passed down from the ancestors of the old man in yellow, it had no other uses besides being able to sense surrounding formations. In his hands, it was not as effective as a powerful second-level high-grade magic weapon.

The reason why he didn't take it out directly at first was not because of how important it was to the old man in yellow, but because he wanted to show his proficiency in the art of battle in front of Song Qingming.

Being able to exchange this item for thousands of spiritual stones is not considered a losing deal for him.

And in front of Song Qingming, the golden elixir monk who had just saved his life, the old man in yellow didn't have much choice even if he was a little reluctant.

If Song Qingming was offended by his rude remarks, I'm afraid his fate would not be much better than that of the "Golden Sword Sect" monks lying next to him. It would just be another corpse here.

Seeing that the other party was still a little worried that she would not let him go afterwards, Song Qingming smiled and explained directly: "I am not someone who likes to take advantage of juniors. Giving you the spirit stone is just a trade.

Don't worry, since I'm satisfied with your answer, I won't cause trouble for you.

But one thing you have to remember is that you must keep secret what happened today, otherwise not only will I be in some trouble, but it will also not be a good thing for you. "

"Don't worry, senior. I know this. The people of the "Golden Sword Sect" are also vindictive when they act outside. Even if it's not for anything else, I dare not publicize this matter for my own life."

Hearing Song Qingming's reminder, the old man in yellow hurriedly nodded and agreed.

Song Qingming was not a cultivator from the "Tianhai Xiuxianjie". For him, offending a Jindan force like the "Golden Sword Sect" was not a big deal.

The reason why he reminded the old man in yellow was just habitual caution.

Seeing that the other party carefully agreed, Song Qingming nodded with satisfaction, and picked up the formation book in his hand and said to him: "I am also interested in this thing. If it is convenient for you, I will take it directly."

"Convenient, of course it is convenient. I originally wanted to present this formation book to the senior. It is my honor that you like it."

Hearing that Song Qingming was interested in the formation book he wrote, the old man in yellow hurriedly agreed with a happy face.

Seeing that the old man was so tactful, Song Qingming did not treat him badly. He took out a second-grade high-quality magic weapon from his body and threw it to the old man in yellow as a spiritual object in exchange for the formation book in his hand.

This time, the old man in yellow did not hesitate to be polite to Song Qingming and took it directly and generously.

After completing the transaction, Song Qingming was very satisfied and said to him: "I have nothing to do here. You can do whatever you want next. There are dangers everywhere in this secret realm. You need to be careful when you venture out alone."

"Thank you for your reminder, senior. I entered the secret realm with several Taoist friends this time, but we were forced to separate when we met people from the "Golden Sword Sect" on the way.

Now it is difficult for me to face the dangers here alone. I don't want to continue to explore the secret realm. I plan to find a suitable teleportation location to leave here in advance."

Every cultivator who enters the secret realm will receive a teleportation token in advance.

However, although this teleportation token can be used at any time, it takes a certain amount of time to cast a spell to activate it, and it will make a lot of noise when used, so it is easy for the surrounding cultivators to discover their location.

For cultivators like the old man in yellow who want to leave early, they must first find a relatively hidden place and then cast a spell to activate the teleportation token, so that they can be safer.

Seeing that the other party wanted to leave the secret realm, Song Qingming did not say much, but nodded slightly to him and said:

"Well! You have so many things in your hands, which is considered to be some opportunities. It is not a bad thing to know when to advance and retreat. Then you should take care of yourself!"

After Song Qingming finished speaking, he turned around and took down the formation arranged at the entrance of the cave, and then took out the "Phantom Boat" and turned into a white escape light and left the valley directly.

Looking at the escape light that had disappeared in the sky in the distance, the old man in yellow confirmed the fact that Song Qingming had left, and slowly exhaled a breath.

After practicing for so many years, the old man in yellow has also met many Jindan-stage cultivators, but most of them are high-handed and disdainful of them, the little foundation-building cultivators.

It was indeed the first time that he had seen a Jindan cultivator like Song Qingming who was interested in something on him and was willing to exchange it fairly with spirit stones, not wanting to take advantage of him.

If he hadn't seen the thousands of spirit stones and a second-level top-grade magic weapon in his hand, he might have thought that what had just happened was just a dream.

"Although this person's behavior was a bit strange, he had a bit of righteousness. I didn't expect to meet a good person today!" (End of this chapter)
