Family Cultivation: Evergreen of the Song Family

Chapter 173 Jin Yang Zhenren
It turned out that not long after Song Changsheng set off for Luoxia City, Song Qingxing took Song Qingxi down the mountain to practice.

They crossed the entire Wangyue Mountains and finally entered Liuyunfang City. They encountered many monsters along the way and encountered many rogue cultivators, but without exception, they all fell under Song Qingxing's sword.

An episode also happened during this period, that is, Song Qingxi discovered Song Qingxing's bloodthirsty and cruel side, and his killing methods were extremely bloody.

Song Qingxi had always kept in mind what Song Changsheng had said to her, and had a very unpleasant fight with him over this. In the end, with her efforts, Song Qingxing's methods became much gentler.

They only stayed in Liuyunfang City for a few days, and then entered the Liuyun Mountain Range. These two children were also very ambitious, as that was the territory of the Qiu family and the Dihuo Sect.

Fortunately, their information was classified as top secret within the Song family and had not been leaked. They had rarely appeared on Cangmang Peak in recent years and did not attract the attention of others. Otherwise, these two young seedlings would have died.

Moreover, their luck was pretty good. They accidentally discovered an ancient cave. It was the first time for both of them to go down the mountain. It is said that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, so they actually broke in directly.

Fortunately, that cave had been there for some years, and the owner was just a relatively poor foundation-building casual cultivator, and he didn't have any powerful skills left behind. Otherwise, with their cultivation base, they would probably be trapped there.

Even so, their exploration of the cave was still full of dangers. Thanks to the protective objects Song Changsheng left for them before leaving, the two of them were able to escape unscathed.

Although it is dangerous, the rewards are not small. The second-level low-grade long sword in Song Qingxing's hand was obtained from it, as was the paper kite controlled by Song Qingxi.

Speaking of this paper kite, Song Changsheng was a little envious of the fate of the two of them.

The Song family also has two of these paper kites. Song Changsheng rode them when he went down the mountain for the first time. It is a very rare walking aid for Qi training monks. Song Changsheng has always wanted to get one when he was still in the Qi training period. Only, but failed to do so.

Unexpectedly, Song Qingxi got it the first time he went down the mountain. It can only be said that luck can't be stopped.

After the two of them explored the cave, Song Qingxing wanted to go deeper into the Liuyun Mountains, but fortunately Song Qingxi stopped him in time.

After the two returned to Xiaoqingshan, they went down the mountain twice more to practice. After experiencing the wind and rain, their actual combat abilities improved a lot, and they also gained two more minds...

After listening to Song Qingxi's narration, Song Changsheng was quite satisfied. Although he was a little bolder, the result was good.

Doesn't he himself often talk about "finding wealth through danger"?

"Yes, your performance has exceeded my expectations. Originally, I was still thinking about whether to arrange a coming-of-age ceremony trial for you according to the family's regulations. Now it seems that it is not necessary. You have reached the standard of independence."

Song Changsheng rubbed the little girl's soft hair, and a smile appeared on his face. Their performance was far beyond that of their peers.

"Is there any reward?" Song Qingxi spread her white hands in front of Song Changsheng and said, a hint of cunning flashed in her bright eyes.

"What do you want?"

He is now considered to be relatively well-off, and when he said this, he still had a strong backbone.

Song Qingxi held her little face in her hands and thought for a while, "I want a defensive magic weapon."

"Okay, I will refine one for you when I have time. It will definitely suit your liking." Song Changsheng smiled slightly. For him, refining a weapon was a trivial matter.

"By the way, when I went up the mountain, I saw everyone discussing the family competition. Isn't the family competition held once every three years?"

"This is a temporary decision of the family. In theory, all qualified members of the family must participate. However, you and Qing Xing are in special circumstances and should not be exposed to the public, so I did not notify you."

"Oh, that's it." Song Qingxi nodded, a little uninterested.

Song Changsheng glanced at her and said with a smile: "What, you want to participate too?"

"Is that okay?" Song Qingxi's dim eyes suddenly brightened, and her voice became much cheerful.

"As long as you want to participate, there's nothing wrong with it, but you can only be assigned to the minor competition. With your cultivation, you are a bit of a bully."

Song Qingxi is only 16 years old. She is an underage monk and can only compete with underage disciples of her family. Her seventh level of Qi training is unique to her. She has also gone down the mountain to practice several times. She has seen blood more than once. The fighting skills of those tribesmen who have never been down the mountain are simply a dimensionality reduction attack.

Not only do they have more actual combat experience than they do, but their cultivation level is even higher than theirs. How can this be a trade fair?
Unexpectedly, Song Qingxi almost jumped up with joy and said with great expectation: "Then I can get the first place? I want to participate!"

Song Changsheng smiled helplessly and had no objection. Song Qingxing could not be exposed yet, but Song Qingxi was fine. Although the seventh level of Qi training at the age of 16 was a bit eye-catching, it had not yet reached the level of being fearful. It just happened to stimulate the younger generation of the family. of tribesmen.

"The competition is just a month away. Since you want to participate, you should prepare well and come back first."

"Don't worry, I won't lose." Song Qingxi waved her pink fist and said confidently.

Qingzhou and Jinwu Mountains.

As the largest mountain range in Daqi's cultivation world, the Golden Crow Mountains stretch tens of thousands of miles from north to south, with mountains and forests that can't be seen to the edge at a glance.

The headquarters of the Jinwu Sect is on Jinyang Peak in the Jinwu Mountains. Jinyang Peak is as high as [-] meters, like a sharp sword thrust into the sky.

The majestic palace complex is located on the mountainside, as if it is in the clouds.

At this moment, Cheng Muqiu, the leader of the Golden Crow Sect, frowned and said nothing as he looked at the information gathered in his hands.

"Junior sister, what do you think about this?" After a while, he handed the information in his hand to a charming woman beside him.

Liu Qingping did not read the information he handed over, but sighed and said: "Brother, it doesn't matter what I think. The key is what the Supreme Elder thinks.

You also know how much the old man likes Xia Qingxue and how much effort he has put into her. Now that the protector Dai Zichen has died, Xia Qingxue’s whereabouts are unknown, and all the evidence points to Tianmai Sect at the same time, what else do you think? look? "

Cheng Muqiu frowned and said, "Don't you think the source of this information is too suspicious? If this matter was really done by Tianmai Sect, how could it be known to us so easily?"

"Where's the evidence? Suspicion must be well-founded. You don't just want to rely on unfounded guesses to convince the Supreme Elder, do you?" Liu Qingping said helplessly.

She and Cheng Muqiu actually have the same view. This matter is not as simple as it seems, but the key point is that these are all their speculations, and there is no substantive evidence at all!

What she was talking about was what gave Cheng Muqiu a headache. More than half a month had passed since Dai Zichen was ambushed and killed, and he had mobilized all his strength to find the murderer.

They sent people to check the traces of the incident and found that there were at least three murderers who ambushed Dai Zichen, including one from the late Zifu period, so Dai Zichen didn't even have a chance to escape.

The other party did it very cleanly, and it was impossible to tell where the murderer came from from the traces.

But think about it with your head, there are countless Zifu monks in the entire Daqi cultivation world, and there are only five forces that can dispatch more than three Zifu monks at the same time.They are the Golden Crow Sect, Tianmai Sect, Luoxia City, Tianjian Sect, and Fumo Palace.

Needless to say about the Golden Crow Sect.

Luoxia City has been in a state of absolute neutrality for thousands of years. There is no reason to do such a thing, let alone blame the Tianmai Sect, because they face the Hundred Thousand Mountains, which is the barrier of Da Qi State. If Da Qi State is in chaos, what will happen to it? There are only disadvantages and no advantages for them.

Tianjian Sect is the largest sect after Luoxia City, and in some aspects it is even stronger. They have the ability to commit crimes, but they have no motive to commit crimes.

Because if a war really broke out between the Golden Crow Sect and the Tianmai Sect, the Tianjian Sect, as a vassal of the Tianmai Sect, would have to bear the brunt of the war, which would be a thankless task.

It is even more impossible that there is only one Fumo Palace left. As a huge force that spreads across the world of human cultivation, the Fumo Palace has always been responsible for exterminating demons and defending the Way. It specializes in slaying demons and subduing them and never gets involved in power struggles. This is why they can live in harmony with various local forces. reason.

If they do this, once they are discovered, the Golden Crow Sect will not need to take action. The Demon-Fuming Palace will send people to clean up the door.

After thinking about it, there is only one Tianmai Sect left.

The two sides have been fighting openly and secretly for thousands of years. Over the years, countless outstanding disciples have been strangled in the cradle by the other side. As a direct disciple of the Supreme Elder, Xia Qingxue is extremely talented and extremely mysterious. It is entirely possible for the Tianmai Sect to assassinate him out of fear. .

Moreover, the spies they placed in Tianmai Sect showed that Tianmai Sect did have unusual personnel transfers during that period.

Looking at it this way, it means that the Tianmai Sect did not escape, but Cheng Muqiu always felt that there was something fishy in it, but he could never find evidence to prove it.

In the dark, he felt that there was an invisible big hand stirring things up behind this incident, in order to intensify the conflict and contradiction between the Golden Crow Sect and the Tianmai Sect.

"Who are you? Don't let me catch you!" Cheng Muqiu clenched his fists, and there was a flash of killing intent in his eyes.

At this time, the door of the main hall suddenly opened with a bang.

Cheng Muqiu was a little upset and was about to scold him, but when he saw the person coming clearly, he suddenly came to his senses, quickly stood up, and respectfully held his hands in his hands and said: "Greetings to the Supreme Elder."

Liu Qingping also stood up and lowered her head, not daring to look directly at the other person.

A figure walked in slowly. He was wearing a red-gold robe with a golden raven pattern. He looked extremely thin, with a haggard face and gray hair that looked like it could be blown down by the wind.

But as the sect masters and great elders, they were respectful and did not dare to have the slightest contempt, because this old man who seemed to be dying was the number one master in the Golden Crow Sect and even Daqi cultivation world - [Jinyang Zhenren] Su Ding!
He is the only golden elixir perfectionist in the entire Daqi cultivation world, and the only fourth-level top alchemist. His strength is unfathomable, and he has killed more than one demon king.

At the same time, he is also a living fossil in the world of Daqi cultivation. He is more than [-] years old this year. The lifespan of a Golden elixir monk is only a thousand years in theory. He has lived for more than [-] years.

The reason why the Golden Crow Sect can steadily suppress the Tianmai Sect is that the existence of Jin Yang Zhenren is very crucial.

Xia Qingxue is his direct disciple. In terms of seniority, she is much higher than Cheng Muqiu.

Su Ding's eagle-like eyes fell on Cheng Muqiu, and he said in a hoarse voice: "Is there any news about my disciple?"

"Reporting to the Supreme Elder, not yet, but her soul lamp is still on, so there should be no danger to her life." Cheng Muqiu and Liu Qingping looked at each other and replied bravely.

"Then have you found the murderer?" Su Ding approached step by step. Cheng Muqiu felt the pressure on his body getting bigger and bigger. He was even a little out of breath with his perfect cultivation in Zifu.

"The initial judgment is that it is Tianmai Sect, but this junior thinks that there may be something fishy in it."

"evidence."

Su Ding was now less than ten feet away from Cheng Muqiu.

Cheng Muqiu swallowed his saliva and said bravely: "I haven't found it yet. Please give me a little more time."

"Humph!"

A cold snort sounded in Cheng Muqiu's ears like thunder, almost making him unsteady. He was suddenly shocked. The gap was so big?

At this time, Liu Qingping also stood up and said: "Supreme Elder, this disciple also thinks this matter is too strange. Please give us some more time to find the truth."

Su Ding stared at the two of them indifferently, making them feel palpitated.

After a while, Su Ding walked away, leaving only a sentence full of murderous intent: "Give you another month, if you can't find any new evidence, then start a war with the Tianmai Sect. The majesty of the Golden Crow Sect cannot be challenged. !”

After Su Ding left, the heavy pressure in the hall suddenly disappeared. Cheng Muqiu almost collapsed on the ground. The aura of the Golden Elixir Dzogchen monk was really terrifying.

"One month, time is too tight." Cheng Muqiu looked ugly. The Supreme Elder was determined to start a war with Tianmai Sect.

Liu Qingping said helplessly: "Almost everyone thinks that Tianmai Sect is behind the scenes, and the outside world is watching our reaction, but it has been more than half a month, and we have still not taken any action, and there are already rumors from the outside world.

If no action is taken, the elders and disciples below may become dissatisfied. "

"Oh, I understand, but it is unwise to start a war with Tianmai Sect at this juncture." Cheng Muqiu shook his head and sighed, and walked out of the hall.

"Where is Senior Brother going?"

"I'm going to meet two other real people. Even if I can't change the Supreme Elder's mind, at least give us some more time."

------

At this moment, Song Changsheng didn't know that the cloud of war was approaching, and he was worried about how to wake up Xia Qingxue.

These days, he would come to cast [Light of Resurgence] on her from time to time, and Song Luzhou also made special healing elixirs for her to take.

Xia Qingxue's injuries also improved very quickly, but the strange thing is that her soul has been in a coma with no signs of waking up.

Song Changsheng even doubted whether she had turned into a vegetative state. If that was the case, it would be too cheating.

In order to figure out what was going on, Song Changsheng spent every day in the Scripture Collection Pavilion, trying to find clues in the vast smoke-like text.

After more than ten days in a row, he finally found some relevant records...
