Chapter 775: A last resort, the mysterious stone tablet (asking for monthly votes)
Song Qingming was able to quickly kill Qiu Wuxin, but it was because he used his skills to restrain his opponent. He did not have enough confidence to fight against top Jindan masters like Xiao Haoran and Han Feng. When the situation was not right, he could only retreat to avoid it. .
Fortunately, Han Feng and Xiao Haoran were fighting fiercely, and they didn't even notice Song Qingming, who was hiding in the distance and retreating quietly.
Taking this opportunity, Song Qingming also successfully stayed away from the two of them. It was not until he gradually left that the consciousness of the two of them could cover them, that Song Qingming slowly breathed a sigh of relief and slightly accelerated his escape speed.
Just when Song Qingming thought he had gotten rid of Xiao Haoran and his two men in the distance, a flash of lightning suddenly flashed under the ruins of the hall not far in front of him and headed straight for Song Qingming's location.
Just now, Song Qingming was trying to avoid Xiao Haoran and the two of them, so his attention had been focused on them. He didn't notice that his position had unknowingly reached the sky above a circular magic circle with white mist.
The lightning that struck Song Qingming was emitted from the white mist formation below.
Seeing that the power of this thunder light was somewhat extraordinary, Song Qingming did not dare to face it carelessly, so he quickly revealed his figure and cast a spell to release his natal magic weapon "Five Elements Divine Light Mirror", which turned into a huge bronze mirror to block in front of him.
The lightning struck the "Five Elements Divine Light Mirror", causing a burst of sparks and quickly disappearing.
But before Song Qingming could breathe a sigh of relief and escape from the attack range of the magic circle, more than a dozen powerful lightning strikes came from the white mist below.
These lightning beams were extremely fast and arrived in front of Song Qingming in an instant, directly converging into a thunder net in mid-air, sealing Song Qingming's surroundings and tightly trapping him in the thunder net, making it impossible for him to escape.
Although Song Qingming relied on his natal magic weapon "Five Elements Divine Light Mirror" to forcibly block the attacks of these lightning strikes, he was immediately entangled by the continuous lightning strikes below, and he could only cope with them and was unable to forcefully leave.
Xiao Haoran and Han Feng, who were fighting in the distance, also noticed the sudden appearance of thunder in the distance. Not knowing what was going on here, they temporarily stopped fighting and moved towards Song Qingming.
Faced with this sudden situation, Song Qingming also knew that he must have accidentally broken into the magic circle here and accidentally touched the restriction here. Only then was he constantly besieged by the white mist magic circle below. For a while, he could only blame himself. My luck is really bad.
They had just escaped to the edge of the "Fenglei Palace" and were only one step away from leaving here.
Unexpectedly, he would meet Xiao Haoran and Han Feng here. Before he could escape from this danger, he accidentally touched the white mist magic circle and was trapped in this restriction.
Seeing Xiao Haoran and Han Feng not far away, they had noticed the movement on their side and were approaching. Song Qingming felt something bad in his heart, and quickly cast a spell to take out a golden ball and hung it on his head.
After a moment, most of the surrounding lightning was absorbed into the golden ball above Song Qingming's head, which relieved him a lot of pressure.
With the help of the "Thunder Gathering Bead", Song Qingming was finally able to free up his hands and cast another spell to try to break out of the confinement of the surrounding thunder.
But when Song Qingming rushed out of the thunder net, a huge suction force suddenly came from the white mist formation below, sucking Song Qingming's whole body directly.
This suction force came very suddenly. By the time Song Qingming reacted and used his magic power to resist, his whole body had been sucked into the white mist below.
After a while, bursts of thunder suddenly came from the white mist, and then lightning flashes began to appear around the entire white mist, with sparks flying out from time to time.
But not long after, when Xiao Haoran and Han Feng arrived in the distance, the original dazzling lightning and white fog formation had suddenly disappeared.
Only the ruins of the palace around it were left, as if nothing had happened here just now.
"Hey! What's going on? I just saw such a powerful lightning appearing. Someone must have touched the nearby restriction. Why is there no one here?"
After glancing at the surrounding scene, Han Feng, who had arrived here first, frowned slightly.
When Xiao Haoran arrived here, a look of surprise also appeared on his face, and then his eyes began to search the nearby area carefully.
After a while, Xiao Haoran, who was standing there, suddenly raised his head and said to Han Feng with a serious look on his face: "Fellow Daoist Han, couldn't that thunder just now be a deception trick you used to trick me here?
If fellow Taoist you feel that you are no match for me and don't want to continue fighting with me, then just hand over the Thunder Infant Fruit in your hand to me.
I can promise that I won’t cause you any more trouble, and we won’t stop you from the Jade Sword Sect wherever you want to go.
How about it, fellow Taoist, do you want to think about it? There are forbidden magic circles everywhere in this inner hall. It can be seen that there are still many places hiding good things. Why do you and I keep wasting time here? "
Hearing Xiao Haoran's proposal, Han Feng suddenly laughed, shook his head and refused: "Haha! Fellow Daoist Xiao, these words are a bit big.
I admit that my Taoist friend is indeed extraordinary in strength, and he is worthy of being the number one master of the golden elixir in our Tianhai Immortal Cultivation World.
But Fellow Daoist Xiao wants to get the Thunder Infant Fruit from me with just a few words, which is a bit fanciful.
If you want to get this thing from me, unless you can really beat me until I admit defeat, I will definitely not give in to you even if you risk your life for this spiritual fruit. "
Seeing the resolute look on Han Feng's face, the flying sword beside him had already flown out of his body, ready to fight at any time.
Xiao Haoran had no intention of attacking at this moment, and then suddenly laughed and waved to Han Feng not far away.
"Haha. Han Daoyou can die rather than surrender. He is indeed a person with a firm heart. It is not so easy to convince you.
Our six major sects have agreed that we cannot kill each other. If we continue to fight, it will be difficult to tell the winner.
It is very satisfying to fight with Daoyou today. I think we should stop here!"
"What do you mean by this, Daoyou? Are you going to let me go!"
Seeing Xiao Haoran suddenly change his mind and no longer fight with him for the Thunder Infant Fruit on his body, Han Feng's face also showed a little surprise, and he still didn't believe what the other party said.
Seeing the confusion on Han Feng's face, Xiao Haoran nodded and responded:
"There are still many places in the secret realm where good things are hidden. I don't want to keep fighting with Fellow Daoist Han here, and in the end, I will give other opportunities and spiritual objects to others.
After all, this place is only opened once every hundred years. When it opens next time, you and I may have reached the Nascent Soul Realm and have no chance to come in again. Don't miss this good opportunity to find opportunities easily.
Fellow Daoist Han, don't you think so!"
"Fellow Daoist Xiao is right. This spiritual fruit is a task assigned by my master. If you hadn't been forcing me, I wouldn't want to waste time with you here. I would have wanted to go to other places to find opportunities.
Since you have figured it out, I won't stay here to accompany you. I will have a chance to consult you another day. Goodbye!"
Confirming that Xiao Haoran really didn't want to fight with him anymore, Han Feng didn't hesitate too much and quickly turned into a beam of light and left this place.
Facing Han Feng's departure, Xiao Haoran, who was standing in the same place, did not choose to stop him. After the other party's figure left this place, he turned his eyes and looked down.
"No mistake, how can this smell be so similar to the Thunder Infant Fruit? The person who just triggered the lightning restriction should still have a Thunder Infant Fruit on his body!
No matter where you are hiding now, I will definitely find you out!"
Just when Xiao Haoran came here, he happened to smell a trace of the residual smell of the "Thunder Infant Fruit" left on Song Qingming's body. He also quickly deduced that there might be a cultivator carrying the "Thunder Infant Fruit" hiding nearby.
Xiao Haoran fought with Han Feng for so long, but he still couldn't take down his opponent and snatch the "Thunder Infant Fruit" from him.
Compared to Han Feng, whose strength is not much different from his own, no matter who this hiding opponent is, it must be easier for Xiao Haoran to deal with than Han Feng.
Therefore, after discovering that there might be a "Thunder Infant Fruit" hidden here, Xiao Haoran immediately changed his mind and let Han Feng go, and shifted his target to this strange cultivator.
After muttering to himself, Xiao Haoran first took out a sound transmission talisman and informed his fellow monks nearby of his location.
Then he fell from midair and began to search carefully in the ruins below to find places where people might be hiding.
——
Outside the secret realm, thousands of miles away from the "Fenglei Island" on the seashore.
A figure in a green robe was standing alone on a huge reef on the seashore, his eyes fixed on the sunset that was slowly falling into the sea above the distant sky.
After a while, a white light suddenly flew from not far behind the green-robed man and landed beside him.
Then a young man in green clothes walked out of the white light and bowed respectfully to the green-robed man.
"Senior! Everything is almost ready over there, and the Tiangang Five Elements Formation has been arranged according to your requirements!"
After hearing the report from the person behind him, Feng He turned around and retracted his gaze, nodded slightly to Song Yuanli and replied: "Well! You did a good job, and now we just have to wait for Brother Song to come back!
Don't worry, as long as this matter can be completed smoothly, I will definitely not treat you unfairly. If you have any spiritual objects you want, you can also tell me first, and I will try my best to satisfy you."
"Senior has taught me a lot, and it is only natural for me to come to help. How dare I ask for spiritual objects from you!" Facing Song Yuanli waving his hand Feng He did not look surprised when he rejected his kindness. He spoke to him seriously:
"Song Qingming and I have known each other for more than a hundred years. Although I saved you in Lu State, it was because of fate, but in fact, it was also for his sake.
And the reason why I supported you to succeed in forming a golden elixir is that you can help me to avenge my hatred now. I just need a reliable golden elixir cultivator to help me."
"This, so that's the case!"
Hearing Feng He suddenly change his attitude and confess the reasons and purposes of saving his life and supporting the formation of a golden elixir, Song Yuanli was also slightly stunned.
Seeing some disappointment on Song Yuanli's face, Feng He continued to smile and said: "So, if you want to repay a favor, you should be more grateful to Song Qingming, not me!
I don't like to owe others any favors. There is still half a month. If you have thought of what you need, just tell me directly. It will be too late to come to me after this matter is over."
"I know what you said, but I really don't have any requirements for you.
Uncle Qi has taught us since we were young that the kindness given to us cultivators should be repaid by the spring. No matter what the reason was for saving me, the younger generation must remember this kindness. "
"Haha. You are really a bit pedantic. You want to remember a small kindness for the rest of your life!
In this world of immortality, there are many people who repay kindness with enmity and forget justice for the sake of profit. Even Song Qingming, do you think he has really not done anything against his conscience? "
Seeing that Song Yuanli still refused to let go of this kindness easily, Feng He couldn't help but smile and shook his head, and began to teach him, but his words could not shake Song Yuanli's inner thoughts.
"Senior, my seventh uncle also taught us that it is difficult to have perfect people in this world. If a good person encounters a situation where he cannot help himself, he may do bad things.
I believe that Uncle Seventh is an old man. Even if he did something that went against his conscience, he had to do it out of necessity! "
Seeing the very determined look in Song Yuanli's eyes, Feng He was stunned for a moment, and after a while he sighed and turned to look at the sea ahead.
"You go back first! That boy Song Qingming is smarter than you, and nothing will happen to him. I will be away for a while, and I will be back on time in half a month."
After explaining to Song Yuanli, Feng He waved his hand and took out an ordinary-looking flying boat, which then turned into a ray of cyan light and quickly disappeared from the place.
——
Within the secret realm, in the "Feng Lei Palace".
Luo Liangshan and a few people from "Luo Maple Valley" stood above a forest that was destroyed by the monks' fighting skills, carefully searching for any abnormalities nearby.
"Senior Brother Head, I have been searching for several days, but I still haven't found Senior Brother Qiu. The star gathering disk doesn't show Junior Brother Qiu's natal talisman. Could it be that Senior Brother Qiu is no longer around here at all.
If something unexpected happens to junior brother, do you think we should send someone out first to report the matter to the ancestor. "
"Junior Brother Li, no, the matter of Junior Brother Qiu's disappearance has not been finalized yet, so don't rush to tell the matter to your uncle. If Junior Brother Qiu is fine, don't blame me later.
Junior Brother Qiu, the sect will train people who can condense the Nascent Soul in the future. It would be okay if he is fine. If something really happens, Junior Brother will definitely blame us. We should seize the time to find him! "
Luo Liangshan, who had a look of embarrassment on his face, heard what the people beside him said. After hesitating for a moment, he nodded and said, "Two junior brothers, let's wait a few more days and let's search the surrounding area carefully.
If there is still no news about Junior Brother Qiu after three days, then we will discuss whether to inform Junior Brother Qiu about this matter, but before that, everyone must not let others know about this matter. "
Ever since Qiu Wuxin disappeared, Luo Liangshan had fallen into deep contemplation in the past few days.
As the leader, he also had the opportunity to condense the Nascent Soul, but Luo Liangshan failed to succeed in his first attempt at the Nascent Soul realm. Facing Qiu Wuxin, who was deeply favored by the ancestor of the sect, it was already difficult for him to compete with him. .
But at this moment, Qiu Wuxin's sudden disappearance revived the lost hope in his heart.
Luo Liangshan didn't really want Qiu Wuxin to die here, but if the other party really died unfortunately, it might not be a bad thing for him. Maybe this would be an opportunity to change his destiny in the future.
After hearing Luo Liangshan's decision, the other people in "Luo Maple Valley" didn't say much, but they had different expressions on their faces, and they all had their own thoughts.
In the sky above a palace ruins hundreds of miles away from them, the people of "Qingyang Sect" also showed a hint of embarrassment and were searching carefully among the ruins.
Xiao Haoran, who was standing in mid-air, was currently sitting on a flying boat, holding a book and slowly flipping through it, not paying attention to his fellow students who were busy below.
A tall and thin man not far away carefully approached another fat-faced old man beside him and asked softly:
"Senior Brother Wu, I've been looking for it for three days in a row. I've searched this place all over, but I haven't seen the forbidden magic circle that Senior Brother Xiao mentioned at all.
Do you think Senior Brother Xiao may have made a mistake? There is no one hiding here at all. That guy may have escaped long ago! "
The fat-faced old man also sighed when he heard this and said: "I also find it a bit strange, but Senior Brother Xiao saw this with his own eyes. If you don't believe it, why don't you go ask him again?"
"Well, how dare I go alone? I just want to ask you what you mean. If you don't think it's right, then let's go and talk about it together so that we don't have to work around here all the time."
"No, the worst thing is to stay here for a few more days. I don't want to accompany you to be the first person. Why don't you go ask Senior Brother Chen and the others? I don't want to go anyway."
Upon hearing his companion's suggestion, the fat-faced monk glanced at Xiao Hao, who was not far away and was concentrating on reading. Then he quickly shook his head, then turned and left the place.
At this time, their conversation happened to have fallen into the ears of Xiao Haoran who was high up in the sky.
"Strange! It's been so long and you haven't found it yet?"
With a trace of doubt on his face, Xiao Haoran took the initiative to put away the books in his hands. After scanning the surrounding area, he flashed to the side of a white-haired old man below.
"Senior Brother Chen, how are you? Have you found any restrictions around here?"
Faced with Xiao Haoran's inquiry, the white-haired old man sighed, shook his head and replied: "Junior brother Wu and I have searched dozens of miles around here in the past few days.
Except for finding several restrictions that had been broken long ago, no new array restrictions were found, nor were there any traces of monks' activities nearby. "
"How could this be? I clearly saw that guy disappear nearby after triggering the restriction.
And I have been guarding here all the time. If he came out to escape, he would definitely not be able to avoid my eyes, unless he is still hiding somewhere and has not been found by us!
But there is no forbidden array nearby, which is strange. Where did he hide? "
Hearing the doubts in Xiao Haoran's mouth, the white-haired old man didn't know how to answer for a while. After hesitating for a moment, he carefully said:
"By the way, Junior Brother Xiao, the situation you mentioned reminds me of something I heard before. I wonder if it is related to this. "
"Please teach me, Senior Brother!"
Hearing this, the white-haired old man smiled and waved his hand and said: "I also learned about this matter from another senior brother when I came in two hundred years ago. It is somewhat similar to the situation you said.
It is said that in this Wind and Thunder Hall, someone has encountered a special restriction before, just like the teleportation array outside us. After the cultivator is triggered, he will be directly sent hundreds of miles away, and some will be swallowed and die directly in the teleportation space channel.
If what Junior Brother saw was true, then the restriction triggered by this person might be this kind of restriction. Perhaps he has already fallen in the space channel, or been sent hundreds of miles away from this vicinity. "
"How is this possible? Even if it is a teleportation array, there should be a magic array left in the original place, but no similar magic array restriction has been found nearby."
Hearing Xiao Haoran's inquiry, the white-haired old man could only shake his head helplessly and said: "I just suspected it, and I didn't confirm whether it was true.
Junior Brother also knows that there are not many records of many restrictions in this Wind and Thunder Hall outside, and even our six major sects keep it secret from each other.
In the notes left by our Qingyang Sect predecessors, there is no similar record as Junior Brother said. It is indeed difficult to know what happened. "
"Well! Senior Brother Chen is right. Let's look around carefully. If we can't find anything, let's look somewhere else!"
For several days in a row, no one from the Qingyang Sect had any results. Seeing that everyone was impatient, Xiao Haoran could only change his mind.
——
Song Qingming, who was searching hard in the Qingyang Sect, was standing in a circular stone room with a headache, looking carefully at a tall stone tablet in front of him.
This stone tablet was carved from a whole piece of bluestone, with some majestic palace patterns painted on it, like a map, and on the back was a full-length portrait of a man holding a sword and wearing a Taoist robe.
In addition to these patterns, There was no text on the stone tablet, so it was hard to tell what the figures and palaces on it meant.
That day, Song Qingming was caught in the white mist restriction that suddenly appeared, and was immediately attacked by the surrounding lightning.
Fortunately, he had a "Lightning Gathering Bead" on his head to help him offset most of the power of the lightning, so that Song Qingming did not suffer too much damage.
Just when Song Qingming was trying to rush out of the white mist with the "Lightning Gathering Bead", he suddenly felt dizzy and was teleported to this mysterious stone chamber. (End of this chapter)
