Qinghe Immortal Clan

After leaving Mujiao Town, he used a light body technique and galloped all the way east. He was already in the middle stage of Qi refining. Now using the light body technique to rush forward was much faster than when he was in the early stage of Qi refining. It only took half an hour. Arrive at the foot of Lingyuan Mountain.

Lingyuan Mountain is only over a hundred feet high, and is less conspicuous than the 600-foot-tall Funiu Mountain. Song Qingming came to a place covered in dense fog on the mountain and handed a token to the formation in the fog. , not long after there was a burst of spell fluctuations in the formation, and then the fog in the formation gradually dissipated, and a figure came out to greet him.

"Second sister, the fourth elder arranged for me to come here to guard you."

"Xiao Qi, I didn't expect you to actually come. Yesterday Uncle Jiu said you were coming, but I still didn't believe it."

Standing in front of her was a woman in white clothes with her hair tied up in silk stockings. She was Song Qingwan, the second-ranked member of the Song family, who was also at the fourth level of Qi refining.

There are currently nine people in the Qing generation of the Song family. Except for the third son, Song Qingze, who has outstanding cultivation, the other eight have similar talents. They are all fourth and fifth spiritual root monks. Therefore, the cultivation realms of the Qing generation monks are also about the same. big.

For people with the same spiritual root qualifications, the gap in early cultivation is generally not too big. Only those geniuses with outstanding spiritual roots can quickly widen the gap in cultivation with ordinary monks like them.

The third brother Song Qingze is the one with the highest cultivation talent among the monks of Song Qingming's generation. Three spiritual root monks like him are also called true spiritual root monks.

This kind of monks not only practice faster, but also break through the bottleneck of the Qi refining stage more easily. Compared with Song Qingming and other fourth and fifth spiritual root monks, they will be able to practice to the later stage of Qi refining more easily.

Among the ten ordinary monks in the world of cultivating immortals, there can only be one or two monks with such true spiritual roots. As long as monks like them do not perish in the middle, they can basically cultivate to the late stage of Qi refining smoothly. This kind of monks are also among the major sects. The backbone of the Sect family is mainly cultivated. If resources can be supplied, there will be hope of building a foundation.

Among the more than 20 monks in the entire Song family, the one with the best spiritual qualifications is the three spiritual root monks.

As for the dual-attribute spiritual root monks with better qualifications, they are also called earth spiritual root monks. These monks have no bottlenecks before building a foundation, and their cultivation speed is faster. They are basically the foundation building seeds of major sects and immortal cultivating families.

In the world of cultivating immortals, there is also a kind of alien spiritual root monk, which is the mutation of the spiritual root attributes in the body of the dual-attribute spiritual root monk. The cultivation speed of the dual-spiritual root monk is almost the same, but the latter is more powerful in fighting skills than the former, and is also more powerful. rare.

The top Tianlinggen monks in the world of cultivating immortals can be said to be unique. They have never appeared in the entire Qinghe County in the past thousand years. Legend has it that such Tianlinggen monks have never practiced before forming elixirs. bottleneck.

Whenever such monks appear, they are often the objects of competition for the top forces in the world of immortality. After all, as long as you have a Tianlinggen monk, you have a potential strongman who can at least reach the cultivation level of the pill formation stage.

Although Song Qingwan's cultivation level is not high, she has learned the alchemy technique, which is the most difficult to pass down among the hundreds of arts of cultivating immortals. She is already a low-grade alchemist. This is what makes Song Qingming and others the most envious of her.

In the world of immortality, all kinds of monks will learn several immortality skills to earn spiritual stone resources, such as alchemy, talisman making, weapon refining, formations, spiritual plants, beast control, puppet making, etc. These are also called the Hundred Arts of Immortality. The most noble among them is the alchemist.

Alchemists are not only noble, but also very rare. The reason for this is that compared to other skills, the cost of training an alchemist in the early stage is too high. Each alchemist is basically a lot of spiritual grass, fairy From the pile of medicine.

Song Qingming is now considered a junior formation master. He originally chose to become an formation master because although formation masters are more time-consuming to learn.

Compared with other skills, it saves the investment of spirit stones. Array Master is also more useful in hunting monsters. Because of this, even if his cultivation level is not high, Uncle Thirteen and the others like to take him with them every time they go down the mountain to hunt monsters. , can help set up formations to hunt monsters.

"I didn't expect that Xiao Qizhen would be so diligent in cultivation and catch up with me so quickly. When my second sister was your age, she had not yet reached the fourth level of Qi training."

"The second sister was joking. If you hadn't spent too much time passing on the family's alchemy method, I'm afraid you wouldn't be far away from the third brother. The fourth elder also said yesterday that you should also go into seclusion to break through your cultivation this time. We all My brother will have to rely on you, the alchemist, to take care of him from now on."

"It's not as fast as he said. I'm still far from a breakthrough. Let's not talk about it for now. I'll take you to see Uncle Jiu first."

The two walked forward through the fog for a while and came to a village. Song Qingming saw some family members living and resting here. Most of them were family members of those who were absent from work when mining mineral veins.

With the protection of the family monks, these people basically didn't have any big worries. Most of them had cheerful smiles on their faces. When they saw Song Qingming passing by, they all stopped and saluted.

After passing through the village, a crescent-shaped small lake appeared in front of it. There was a taller two-story building on one side of the lake. Song Qingwan and Song Qingming walked into the building one after the other.

In the middle of the room, there was a square Eight Immortals table. Behind the table sat a middle-aged man with his head down and reading a book. It was none other than Ninth Uncle Song Changxin.

"Uncle Jiu, Qing Ming is here."

"Nephew meets Uncle Nine"

Song Changxin put down the book in his hand, raised his head and said: "Now that Qing Ming is here, Qing Wan, please go back and tidy up, and go back early so as not to worry the clan leader and others."

Song Qingwan responded after hearing this, nodded to Song Qingming next to him, and walked out.

"I inspect the mine twice a day. You can practice in the mountain if you have nothing to do. You are not allowed to go down the mountain without my permission."

"Nephew understands"

Ninth Uncle Song Changxin was a man of few words. Although he only had the fourth spiritual root qualification like Song Qingming, he was a well-known ascetic monk in the clan. He was already at the seventh level of Qi Refining when he was only over 60 years old, and he was the only one in his family. The four late-stage Qi refining monks will definitely be able to reach the peak of Qi refining if nothing unexpected happens.

Half a day later, Jian Jian communicated with his second sister Song Qingwan. Song Qingming did not choose to live in the house that his second sister moved out. Instead, he packed up another older courtyard next to it and settled in. He began his daily life of patrolling and practicing.

Unconsciously, half a year has passed, and Song Qingming now has a complete understanding of the locations of Lingyuan Mountain and is familiar with the mortals of the family here.

In addition to daily inspections of mineral veins and monitoring the progress of mining, I occasionally deal with minor disputes between mortals here and deal with driving away low-level monsters that mistakenly break into the magic circle outside the mountain.

A little busy but also at ease.

After half a year, Song Qingming felt that his ninth uncle was quite at ease with him. Once he taught him how to deal with daily affairs, he often stayed behind closed doors for ten and a half months without leaving the small building. Basically, all matters big and small in Lingyuan Mountain were left to him. I asked Song Qingming to handle it. Only when there were two attacks by high-level monsters did Song Qingming find it difficult to deal with it alone, so he had to ask Song Changxin to help deal with it.

When Song Qingming first arrived at Funiu Mountain ten years ago, Song Changxin happened to be traveling. Song Qingming didn't have much contact with this ninth uncle. He only knew that he had practiced alone in Ziyun Mountain near the dangerous Fuyun Mountains for many years, and his cultivation knowledge was far beyond Most of the same generation of monks in the family.

After Song Qingming arrived at Lingyuan Mountain, he encountered some cultivation problems at the beginning, so he took the initiative to ask him for advice. At first, Song Qingming was a little cautious, but he did not expect that this ninth uncle was a cold-faced and warm-hearted person, and he was not interested in discussing cultivation. Zhidao is even more enthusiastic.

Over the past six months, he patiently pointed out many of Song Qingming's doubts in his cultivation. Even some of his previous insights and experiences in hunting monsters and fighting in Ziyun Mountain were passed on to Song Qingming without reservation.

It has to be said that Song Changxin still has some unique experiences in this aspect of cultivation. This has also benefited Song Qingming a lot during this period. Many of the doubts about cultivation in the past have now suddenly become clearer.

On this day, Song Qingming had just returned from inspecting the mines early in the morning. From a distance, he saw a martial artist who usually guarded the magic circle running towards him in a hurry.

It seems that another monster is coming to invade.

Qinghe County has been occupied by human monks for thousands of years. It has been cleared countless times by monks in the past generations. Although there are no second-level monsters in the territory, there are still many first-level monsters. Many inaccessible mountains are still home to monsters. territory.

Lingyuan Mountain is not as quiet as Funiu Mountain and Mujiao Town. Because it is close to Yunwu Mountain where monster beasts are entrenched, although there are no high-level monsters around, there are still many low- and middle-level monsters.

Every half month or so, monsters will invade here by mistake. This is why the family does not have many monks, but two monks must be stationed here.

After receiving the news from the visitor, Song Qingming quickly cast a spell and rushed to the entrance of the village.

After a while, they arrived at the formation control area at the entrance of the village. Several martial artists guarding the formation were nervously looking at a huge figure in the formation. They were relieved when they saw Song Qingming arriving.

Song Qingming glanced at the huge figure in the formation and said, "Just hold on to the formation here. This is a mid-level monster, you can't hurt it."

These martial artists are all mortals in the family who have practiced secular martial arts. These people are also called Houtian warriors. They hold some weapons made of black iron and can also cause some damage to monsters in the early stage of Qi refining.

There are more than a dozen such martial masters in Lingyuan Mountain. They are more than enough to deal with ordinary beasts. Together, they can also fight against low-level monsters in the early stage of Qi refining.

But facing this mid-level monster is not enough. Pig monsters have rough skin and thick flesh as hard as iron. After advancing to the middle level, some monsters will instinctively awaken some spells. These martial artists face Intermediate monsters can't help at all, and one careless move will result in losing one's life in vain.
