Chapter 790 Heaven and Earth Thunder, a trace of demonic energy (asking for monthly votes)
Seeing this, Song Yuanhao and the other three stepped forward to salute, and then pointed to Li Xiuning beside them and said:
"Seventh Uncle, Fellow Daoist Li said that he has something important to report to you alone, so I brought her here with me."
Hearing that it was Li Xiuning who wanted to say something to him, Song Qingming was slightly surprised. After waving to Li Xiuning in front of everyone, he took the initiative to walk aside.
After Li Xiuning caught up, Song Qingming immediately waved his hand and cast a sound-proof barrier around the two of them. He turned around with a smile and said:
"There's no one else here. If you have anything to do, just say it."
Hearing this, Li Xiuning quickly nodded and said, "Senior, please don't be surprised. This matter is not very confidential. I am just worried that it will affect my seniors, so I don't dare to say anything in front of others.
Previously in Cangyuan Mountain, I heard that you were looking for a high-level divine thunder of heaven and earth, and suddenly remembered that I happened to come across a place that might have such a thing.
It's just that this place is a long way from Weiguo, and I don't know if I can help my seniors? "
"Oh! Where is this thing? Please tell me first."
Ever since he obtained the "Heaven-Devouring Thunder Control Technique" in the secret realm of "Wind and Thunder Island", Song Qingming has also been very interested in this set of high-level skills that he unexpectedly obtained.
More than a year after returning to his family, in addition to daily healing, Song Qingming began to practice the "Heaven-Devouring Thunder Technique" and asked his family to help search for news about the divine thunder of heaven and earth.
However, because there are very few divine thunders around the Wei Kingdom, although Song Yuanfang and others have tried hard to search everywhere in recent years, they can only find some low-level divine thunders, which is of very limited help to Song Qingming in practicing the "Heaven-Eating Thunder Control Technique".
At this moment, when he heard that Li Xiuning knew about the high-level divine thunder of heaven and earth, Song Qingming's eyes suddenly became more interested, and he motioned for Li Xiuning to continue.
Seeing this, Li Xiuning immediately nodded slightly and continued: "Senior, you should still remember that I was injured when I accidentally entered the Demon King's territory while hunting monsters in Taiyue Lake.
Later, the junior fled to a cave and was attacked by the tree demon again. He was poisoned and almost died from it.
When escaping from the cave, I remember seeing a bright white light inside that looked like a high-level divine thunder. I was attracted by this light and went deep into the cave and was almost killed by the demonic tree!
To be honest, I have been staying in Weiguo all these years, and I have almost forgotten what happened back then.
If I hadn't accidentally heard Taoist friend Yuan Hao asking about the divine thunder of heaven and earth in Cangyuan Mountain a few months ago, and I accidentally remembered this matter, I'm afraid I would never dwell on this embarrassing memory again in this life. "
When Li Xiuning spoke about this, there was a hint of sadness on his face, as if he was recalling some bad memories from the past.
Not only did Li Xiuning herself almost die there, but also her Taoist companions and several close friends who had been with her for many years died in "Taiyue Lake".
Now that Li Xiuning thought of this again, she naturally felt a little uncomfortable, and Song Qingming understood this very well.
After Li Xiuning's mood recovered a little, Song Qingming asked softly: "Fellow Daoist Li, where exactly is the place you mentioned in Taiyue Lake, and how far is it from Song State.
Also, please tell me in detail what this divine thunder of heaven and earth looked like when you saw it. "
The Song Kingdom is far to the west of "Taiyue Lake", and the Yuanying Sect "Hunyuan Sect" in charge here does not have a good relationship with the Weiguo "Xiaoyao Sect" where the Song family is located.
If it were just a low-level monk like Song Yuanhao who was in the foundation-building and Qi-refining stage and went there incognito to practice, he would not be afraid of encountering any danger.
However, Song Qingming, as elder Jin Dan, a guest of the "Xiaoyao Sect", rashly went to the territory of the "Hunyuan Sect" to search for spiritual objects. Once discovered by the other party, it would inevitably cause misunderstandings among the "Hunyuan Sect" and bring trouble to himself and the sect. Come to trouble.
After learning that the divine thunder of heaven and earth mentioned by Li Xiuning was actually in the "Taiyue Lake" near the Song Dynasty, Song Qingming's face became a little more cautious, and he opened his mouth to confirm it in detail.
"Reporting back to my predecessors, the place where the Divine Thunder of Heaven and Earth is located is about six or seven thousand miles away from Liuyun County of the Song Dynasty, and has penetrated deep into the sphere of influence of the Jindan Demon King of Taiyue Lake.
It was when we accidentally entered there that we met the Golden Core Demon King.
As for the white light in the cave, I clearly remember that there were flashes of thunder and lightning above it. I can’t say I’m 100% sure it’s a high-level divine thunder from heaven and earth, but I’m still 80% or 90% sure.
However, it has been many years since this happened, and I am not very sure whether the Heaven and Earth God Thunder is still on that island now. I would like to ask seniors to consider it carefully. "
After his eyes swept over Li Xiuning's face, Song Qingming, who had been practicing Taoism for many years, could also feel that what the other person said was from the bottom of his heart, and he nodded slightly and fell into thinking.
Just like when he went to Yue Kingdom with Xia Mo and He Mengxin to explore the Nascent Soul Monk Cave, there would indeed be some risks in leaving the Wei Kingdom rashly to search for spiritual objects in the territory of the "Hunyuan Sect".
However, if he really finds the high-level "Heaven and Earth Divine Thunder" he wants, it is not unacceptable for Song Qingming, who wants to practice the "Heaven-Devouring Thunder Technique", to take some risks for this.
After all, although the world of cultivating immortals is large and full of opportunities, it is definitely difficult to find opportunities by yourself if you want to sit at home without taking risks. Song Qingming, as a Jindan cultivator, naturally understands these truths.
After standing there and thinking for a while, Song Qingming turned to Li Xiuning, nodded slightly, and continued to ask: "What you said is indeed useful to me. Next, I may ask you to take me to Taiyue Lake.
You also know that our relationship with Hunyuan Sect is not very good, so this trip will definitely be risky.
Regardless of whether this news is true or false, I will certainly not treat you unfairly with the reward I should give you. If you have made up your mind, you can tell me directly.
Whether it's spiritual objects or spiritual stones, as long as it's not too much, I will try my best to satisfy you. "
Seeing that Song Qingming had believed what he said, Li Xiuning's face suddenly showed a look of relief. He stepped forward and said, "Senior is really a quick talker, so I won't be polite to you.
I would like to take this opportunity to ask for a barrier-breaking elixir from my senior. I also hope that my senior can help me. I will definitely be grateful and will wholeheartedly help my senior find the divine thunder of that day. "
Although Song Qingming very generously promised to reward Li Xiuning, as a casual cultivator who had been in the world of immortality for many years, Li Xiuning still knew some sense of propriety in this situation.
Although the "Obstruction Breaking Pill" that he wanted was relatively rare and difficult to buy on the market, its value was only two to three thousand spiritual stones. For Song Qingming, a golden elixir monk, it was naturally not something too difficult. .
"Obstacle-Breaking Pill! Although there is no such thing in the family's Golden Pavilion now, it is not hard to find. I can agree first and ask Siyuan to find one for you next time she goes to the East China Sea.
Don't worry, I'm also the head of the Song family, so I won't regret what I promised you. "
Hearing this, Li Xiuning quickly handed over his hands to thank him and said, "Junior, thank you for your great kindness. No matter what your senior says, I will serve you to the death and you will never refuse."
"Well! You go back and prepare first. When I make arrangements here, I will send a letter to Cangyuan Mountain to inform you."
Seeing that the matter had been settled, Song Qingming quickly waved away the soundproof barrier around the two of them, and then led Li Xiuning towards where everyone was.
After Li Xiuning and Song Yuanhao left, Song Qingyu and Huang Siyuan immediately turned around and looked at Song Qingming curiously.
Seeing this, Song Qingming also chuckled, turned around and walked towards the top of the mountain.
——
Half a month later, over the city of "Taiyue Lake" in the southwest of Weiguo, a white escaping light suddenly passed over the city from high altitude.
Song Qingming, who was standing on top of the "Phantom Boat", looked at the bustling and familiar market below, and couldn't help but sigh to Song Qingyu, who was also standing aside:
“When I came here for the first time, I remember that my cultivation was just at the third level. I didn’t expect that a hundred years have passed by.
But if I hadn’t had the courage to come to this secret realm, I might not have had those opportunities, and the road to spiritual practice might have been more bumpy. "
"The secret realm of Taiyue Lake is opened once every sixty years. You happened to be away from the clan when it was opened last time, so I asked Yuan Li, Chang Ze, and Yu Xin to go there.
As a result, the two boys took Yu Xin around inside and brought out a few second-level elixirs. Compared with the opportunities that Brother Qi had encountered back then, they were far behind. "
After hearing what Song Qingyu said, Song Qingming smiled and nodded, but he understood very well in his heart.
The reason why he was able to gain a lot in the "Taiyue Lake" secret realm back then was entirely because of the relationship between the fire phoenix, which changed the subsequent results.
If this master of Yuanying from the demon clan hadn't led him in, Song Qingming's trip to the secret realm of "Taiyue Lake" might not have been much better than Song Yuanli and the others.
The inner valley where high-level spiritual objects are hidden in the secret realm of "Taiyue Lake" has always been a secret deliberately hidden by the major sects. Even the "Xiaoyao Sect" of the Song family did not specifically inform them. Others want to bring out good things from inside. It is indeed extremely difficult to get things here.
Because he had known the situation inside the secret realm for a long time, Song Qingming did not allow the foundation-building monks of the Song family to participate in the previous opening of the "Taiyue Lake" secret realm. It was not until the last time that Song Qingyu allowed Song Yuanli and others to enter the secret realm.
However, although they could not find any high-level spiritual objects, they would still be able to gain something if they could go in and experience it.
Nowadays, there are more and more foundation-building monks in the family. When the "Taiyue Lake" secret realm opens next time, Song Qingming has already made a plan in his mind and arranged for some of the family's foundation-building elders to go to the secret realm to practice.
In addition to Song Qingming and Song Qingyu, there is also Li Xiuning, a foundation-building monk, on the advancing "Phantom Boat". Song Qingming and the others came here just for the high-level divine thunder of heaven and earth she mentioned.
Originally, Song Qingming planned to take Li Xiuning alone to search for spiritual objects, but after Song Qingyu heard about this, he was a little worried and Song Qingming went to Song State alone.
In addition, Huang Siyuan also agreed with Song Qingyu's proposal. Knowing that the two girls were concerned about their own safety, Song Qingming did not refuse and took Song Qingyu with him.
According to Li Xiuning, the desert island where the high-level divine thunder of heaven and earth is located is located in the lake adjacent to the Song Kingdom to the west of "Taiyue Lake" and is tens of thousands of miles away from the Wei Kingdom.
After the flying boat entered the edge of "Taiyue Lake", Song Qingming turned and steered it southward along the shore of the lake, preparing to go to the Song Dynasty along the south side of "Taiyue Lake" through the countries of Pei and Wu.
By choosing this route, although it would take them a few more days to reach their destination, it would be relatively safer.
After walking along the "Taiyue Lake" for more than half a month, Song Qingming and his team finally passed through many countries along the way and entered the border of Song State on the west side of "Taiyue Lake".
After arriving at the sphere of influence of Song State, in order to try not to alarm the monks of Song State, Song Qingming turned the flying boat along the border of Song State and directly entered Taiyue Lake.
After traveling thousands of miles north, seeing that the bottom had penetrated deep into the monster territory in "Taiyue Lake", Song Qingming slowed down the speed of the flying boat and arrived at a relatively calm water area under the guidance of Li Xiuning.
After seeing some familiar waters here, Li Xiuning quickly said to Song Qingming: "Senior Song, this place should not be far from the location of the deserted island, at most a range of one or two hundred miles.
I remember that there was a small island several miles long connected to the east of the island, and there was a huge reef several dozen feet high at the connection point. As long as I find that rock, I can confirm the location of the cave."
Song Qingyu nodded immediately after hearing this and said:
"In that case, let's act separately. Brother Qi, you take her to search in the east, and I will go to the west to look. Find We will reunite after we reach that island."
"Alright! But this place is after all a place where monsters live. Qingyu, you need to be careful alone. Send me a message if you have any questions."
Faced with Song Qingming's concern and instructions, Song Qingyu smiled and waved his hand and said, "Seventh brother, don't worry. I am now a sixth-level Jindan cultivator. I don't care about ordinary monsters."
Song Qingyu himself practiced the way of sword cultivation, and his fighting ability was stronger than that of ordinary cultivators of the same level. Now that he has broken through the sixth level of Jindan, his combat power is not much weaker than that of ordinary late Jindan cultivators.
As long as you are not unlucky enough to run into the Yuanying Demon King, or the powerful Jindan peak demon king, even if you can't beat the ordinary demon king, you will have no problem getting away.
Generally, the caves of Yuanying Demon Kings are deep in the middle of "Taiyue Lake", and this place is only five or six thousand miles away from Song State. Normally, it is impossible to encounter such a terrifying existence as the Yuanying Demon King.
Seeing the confident smile on Song Qingyu's face, Song Qingming nodded slowly and said nothing more. The two of them separated and began to search the nearby waters.
Because this sea area belongs to the sphere of influence of the demon clan, there are occasionally golden elixir demon kings, so human cultivators will naturally not easily set foot in it.
After taking Li Xiuning to search to the east for most of the day, Song Qingming and the others also searched for more than a dozen deserted islands, but when they got closer, they found that none of them had been to Li Xiuning.
Seeing that the deserted island had not been found for a long time, Li Xiuning became a little nervous, fearing that he had remembered the wrong place, and closed his eyes and tried to recall what happened that day.
Although he had searched for most of the day and found nothing, Song Qingming on the side was not too worried about it. His face was still normal, and he carefully scanned the front of the flying boat.
Not long after, a black spot suddenly appeared in front of Song Qingming's eyes. Seeing this, Song Qingming's face was slightly happy, and he accelerated the speed of his flying boat and moved closer to the location of the island.
"Fellow Daoist Li, this island seems to be somewhat similar to what you said. Check to see if it is here!"
Li Xiuning, who was concentrating with his eyes closed, suddenly heard Song Qingming's questioning voice, and hurriedly opened his eyes and stood up to look forward.
Looking at the island getting closer and closer not far away, which was about 70% consistent with what he remembered at the beginning, Li Xiuning's face instantly showed joy, and he shouted excitedly:
"That stone! Senior Song, yes, it should be here. Please wait for a moment, I will go over to confirm the location of the cave."
Standing on the flying boat, Li Xiuning bowed slightly to Song Qingming with excitement, and immediately took out his magic weapon, and then stepped on the flying sword to approach the location of the island.
However, just as Li Xiuning left the flying boat, there was a sudden loud noise in the sea below, and then a huge eight-legged monster holding a steel fork flew out of the water and rushed directly to Li Xiuning who was still in the air.
"Golden Core Demon King!"
It was because of the encounter with the Golden Core Demon King near here that the entire demon hunting team that Li Xiuning was in was almost wiped out, which also buried a lot of fear of the water demon king in her bones.
Seeing the powerful aura emanating from the eight-legged demon beast in front of her, Li Xiuning's face suddenly changed, and she was so scared that she could only retreat again and again.
Just when the demon beast was still two or three feet away from her, a huge golden bronze mirror suddenly appeared in front of Li Xiuning and blocked her in front of her. Soon, a loud "boom" sounded throughout the entire lake.
Before Li Xiuning could react, a relatively gentle mana wrapped around Li Xiuning, who was already frightened, and pulled her directly back to the "Phantom Boat" not far away.
"You wait here, I'll go and deal with this guy first!"
After telling Li Xiuning, Song Qingming's figure immediately disappeared from the spot, and then a spiritual light flashed quickly in the air, and the next moment Song Qingming had arrived above the eight-legged demon king.
The "eight-legged demon king" in front of him had eight long tentacles and was a demon beast similar to an octopus in the sea. The aura it exuded was faintly at the peak of the early stage of the golden elixir.
After being blocked by Song Qingming's life-defining magic weapon "Five Elements Divine Light Mirror", the "eight-legged demon king" did not give up the attack. He gathered his magic power again and raised the steel fork in his hand to quickly stab Song Qingming's position.
Facing the ferocious attack of the "Eight-Legged Demon King", Song Qingming's face seemed unconcerned. Under his control, the "Five Elements Divine Light Mirror" divided into five and shot out more than a dozen spiritual lights.
Not only did he block the Demon King's attack head-on, he also quickly trapped him in his own magic weapon.
This "Eight-Legged Demon King" had been extremely fierce in front of Li Xiuning before, but now it was facing Song Qingming who controlled the "Five Elements Divine Light Mirror", but it clearly felt a huge pressure.
After trying several magical attacks, he could not break through the shield formed by the "Five Elements Divine Light Mirror". He was also firmly suppressed by the "Five Elements Divine Light" cast by Song Qingming, making it difficult to move.
Seeing that the man in green in front of him was so difficult to deal with, and that he seemed to be no match for him, the "eight-legged demon king" suddenly wanted to retreat. He spit out a burst of black smoke from his mouth to force away the "five-color aura" on his body, and then his body became smaller. Several times, I wanted to take advantage of the chaos to escape.
But before it could escape from the control range of the "Five Elements Divine Light Mirror", a white flame suddenly surrounded the black smoke where it was.
There was only a "sizzling" sound, and the "Eight-Legged Demon King" immediately shouted out an extremely painful voice. The black smoke also slowly dissipated in the flames, revealing the figure of the "Eight-Legged Demon King".
This time, the "Eight-Legged Demon King" also knew how powerful the opponent was, and had no intention of continuing to fight with Song Qingming. He just struggled desperately to escape as soon as possible.
However, in front of Song Qingming, who has a higher level of cultivation, the magical power of the "Eight-Legged Demon King" is completely restrained by him, and there is no chance to escape at all.
Not long after, the huge demon king died under the magic weapon controlled by Song Qingming and fell from mid-air to the lake.
After beheading the "Eight-Legged Demon King", Song Qingming, with a somewhat satisfied expression on his face, immediately jumped onto it.
With a slight wave of his hand, a sword energy passed through the demon king's body and took out the inner elixir hidden in his body.
"Hey! Why is there still a trace of demonic energy in this demon king in the water? Could it be that this demon had a fight with a demonic cultivator not long ago?"
Song Qingming, who had just received the Demon King's inner elixir, felt that the inner elixir still contained a hint of strange demonic energy, and a look of confusion suddenly appeared on his face.
Recalling that he had just fought with the demon king and used the magical power of "Xuanyang Flame" in his natal magic weapon, it was no wonder that the demon king was in so much pain. It turned out to be the reason why it was contaminated with demonic energy.
Seeing that Song Qingming had already displayed his power and killed the demon king, Li Xiuning, who was hiding on the "Phantom Boat", was relieved at this moment, jumped off the flying boat and landed next to Song Qingming.
"Thank you, senior, for saving your life just now!"
Seeing Li Xiuning in front of him who was offering his thanks, Song Qingming quickly waved his hand and said: "No need to be polite! Since I brought you here, I will naturally protect you with all my strength.
I don’t know about this demon king, but is it the one you met back then? "
Hearing this, Li Xiuning glanced at the lifeless "Eight-legged Demon King" below, shook his head calmly and said:
"The demon king that chased us back then was not this kind of monster, and its magical powers were slightly inferior to this demon king. If it had been this demon, I probably wouldn't have been able to escape from it with my life.
But senior, you can rest assured that this island is indeed the desert island I visited before, and the cave is on this island. "
Seeing Li Xiuning confirming the desert island in front of him, Song Qingming nodded slightly without saying anything. He took out a teleportation talisman and informed Song Qingyu of the situation in the distance.
At the same time that Song Qingming killed the "Eight-legged Demon King", he was located in a dark cave thousands of miles away from this desert island.
A middle-aged man who was meditating in seclusion seemed to sense something and slowly opened his eyes. (End of chapter)
