Qinghe Immortal Clan.

Ever since it met Song Qingming, "Chi Yan" has experienced his temper over the past few days. Even though it knows that the other party is not really angry, it does not dare to act too rashly in front of Song Qingming.

After standing by the pool and looking at it carefully for a while, Song Qingming and Huang Siyuan were still unsure what this white spiritual water was, and they couldn't help but shook their heads.

The world of immortal cultivation is too vast, and there are many spiritual creatures in the five continents and four seas. Many of them have become extinct in ancient times and are unknown to the public. Even though Song Qingming and his companions are already successful Jindan cultivators, the spiritual creatures they can recognize now are very limited.

Compared with the countless rare treasures in the entire world of immortal cultivation, they have seen and recognized spiritual objects, but it is estimated that they may not even have one-tenth of them. It is not too strange to encounter this unknown spiritual water.

"I don't know what these spiritual waters are or what they are used for. I'd better pack some and take them out to see what they are. I can make plans after I confirm what they are!"

After the two of them discussed it for a while, they each took out some empty bottles and began to fill the pool with spiritual water.

"Master, I was clearly the first one to discover these spiritual waters. I haven't drunk them for a long time. I just..." Seeing Huang Siyuan filling an empty jade bottle with spiritual water, "Chi Yan" on the side couldn't help but explain to her pitifully.

You have been of great help in finding these spiritual waters. Considering your great contribution, I will give you some of them as a reward. However, you must not be so greedy while we determine their purpose.

"Well! Thank you, master." Looking at the bottle of spiritual water handed over by Huang Siyuan, "Chi Yan" happily picked up the jade bottle and hid aside, fearing that Song Qingming would turn against it and scold it again.

Seeing how adorable "Chi Yan" was, Huang Siyuan smiled at Song Qingming beside her and explained, "This spiritual spring has not dried up yet. Even if we take away all the spiritual water this time, we can still accumulate it slowly next time we come in.

Giving it some reward won't have much impact on us, so you don't have to be stingy!"

"Well! I'm not such a stingy person, I just can't stand its greed." Song Qingming shook his head slightly, and didn't say anything else. He patiently filled the white spiritual water in the pool.

It didn't take long for the two of them to fill more than a dozen bottles. When they saw that the spiritual water in the pool was almost dry, they stopped.

"The remaining spiritual water can just cover the spring below, so let's keep it for now to avoid damaging the spiritual veins in the spring. I estimate that in another hundred years, we can still accumulate this much spiritual water.

Regardless of whether this spiritual water is of much use to us, exhausting the pond to catch fish is not worth the loss, so this time we will stop here. "Looking at the remaining spiritual water in the spring, Song Qingming said with satisfaction.

After the two of them had put away the porcelain bottles filled with spiritual water, Song Qingming cast a spell to set up a small "spirit gathering array" beside the spring, helping the spring to better absorb the surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth, which would also allow it to produce spiritual water faster.

Afterwards, Song Qingming spent a lot of time setting up a second-grade top-grade concealment magic circle at the entrance of the cave, covering the entire entrance to prevent other monsters in the secret realm from breaking into the cave and drinking the water from the spiritual spring.

With this second-level top-grade concealment formation, monsters below the Jindan stage in the secret realm will not have the chance to break into it. Even if a Jindan-level monster king passes by the canyon, it will be difficult for it to discover the clues behind the formation unless it is a very sensitive monster.

Moreover, there are not many Jindan-stage monsters in this formation. Through the searches of Song Qingming and others and the information known by "Chi Yan" in the past few days, almost all of them have been cleared out by them. It seems that there should not be any major problems.

After covering the cave entrance, Song Qingming and Huang Siyuan left the canyon and went to the next place to search for spiritual objects.
-
Three days later, in a large formation located above an unnamed island.

Song Yuanqian and Song Xuanfeng were hiding behind the formation, carefully looking at a snow-white golden-crowned bird on the reef on the east side of the island hundreds of feet away from them.

This golden-crowned bird looks small, only half the height of a person, but the aura it exudes is extremely powerful, no less than that of an early Jindan cultivator.

Looking at the "Golden Crown Demon King" in the distance, Song Yuanqian and the others were very nervous, fearing that the other party would discover them hiding in the formation on the top of the mountain.

Although the second-grade superior formation set up by Song Qingming can perfectly hide the figures of the two people and their aura.

But when encountering a Jindan level demon king, it is hard to say. Some demon kings with very sensitive noses may be able to smell some of their aura even if there is a large formation isolating them.

This "Golden Crown Demon King" has stayed on the island for half a day and has shown no signs of leaving, which has put Song Yuanqian and the other person who were hiding in the formation into a dilemma.

As long as the "Golden Crown Demon King" does not leave, they will always be in danger and may be discovered by the other party at any time.

However, if they sent a sound transmission talisman at this time to inform Song Qingming and the other two below about the arrival of the Golden Core Demon King on the island, it would inevitably affect their actions below and might also alarm the "Golden Crown Demon King", causing them to expose their position voluntarily.

"Grandma, this demon king probably won't leave for a while. Should we send a sound transmission note to inform the clan leaders?"

Facing Song Xuanfeng's repeated questioning, Song Yuanqian shook her head as before and said, "This guy hasn't discovered our location yet, don't worry.

The clan leader and his men have been down there for such a long time and haven't come up yet. I'm afraid they have run into some trouble. Let's not alarm them now and wait another hour to see what happens."

Song Yuanqian has been building her foundation for so many years. Although her cultivation level is not high, she has been helping Song Yuanfang manage worldly things in the family. She rarely goes out to hunt monsters or carry out family tasks. However, her personal courage and insight are not inferior to those of other elders in the Song family.

During the last monster riot, she had led monks from Qinghe County in the rear to transport supplies to the "Jinshanfang" front line many times, and participated in several battles with monsters.

In terms of experience in dealing with monsters, Song Yuanqian is much better than younger generations like Song Xuanfeng who have not been building their foundation for a long time. She is also calmer than them when facing such a crisis.

Just as the two were staring at the "Golden Crown Demon King" lying motionless on the reef, a wave suddenly rose on the sea not far away, and a black sea fish more than three feet long suddenly jumped out of the water and jumped into the air.

Before the sea fish could fall back into the sea, a larger monster suddenly jumped out from the water, opened its bloody mouth and swallowed the sea fish directly into its stomach.

In a flash, the "Golden Crown Demon King" that had been sitting motionless on the reef for a long time suddenly reacted. It turned into a white arrow and flew towards the sea, then dived directly into the sea where the monster had just appeared.

A moment later, this "Golden Crown Demon King" flew out of the sea, holding a huge and immobile sea monster in its mouth, and returned to the reef.

Looking at the "Golden Crown Demon King" who was happily enjoying the food not far away, Song Yuanqian and the others in the formation did not dare to relax for a moment, and their eyes were always fixed on the powerful demon king in front of them.

Fortunately, not long after, the "Golden Crown Demon King" who had eaten his fill did not stay any longer. Instead, he spread his wings and flew to another island in the distance, and soon disappeared from the sight of the two members of the Song family.

Until this moment, Song Yuanqian and Song Xuanfeng slowly breathed a sigh of relief. After looking at each other, a smile as if they had survived a disaster appeared on their faces.

However, before they could relax for long, there was another loud noise from the sea below, which instantly attracted their attention.

"Haha! Grandma, the clan leader and his friends are back!"

Seeing two familiar figures slowly flying over the sea, Song Xuanfeng, who was already extremely excited, immediately took the initiative to walk out of the formation and waved vigorously towards Song Qingming and the other man who were approaching.

"Meet the clan leader!"

"Thank you for your hard work. I hope there haven't been any troubles on the island these days!" Seeing that Song Yuanqian and Song Xuanfeng in front of him were both safe and sound, Song Qingming, who had been worried about them in recent days, now looked a little relieved.

After killing the "Black Bear Demon King" and obtaining the white spiritual water, Song Qingming and Huang Siyuan searched in the secret realm for a few more days, but they only got a few third-level spiritual medicines and didn't find anything good after that.

Seeing that most of the places with spiritual objects in the secret realm had been searched by them, Song Qingming and Huang Siyuan discussed it and then took the initiative to leave the secret realm through the entrance of the barrier and return to the island.

"Don't worry, clan leader. No other cultivators have come here in the past few days. Only a Jindan demon king came yesterday to hunt on the island, and he left not long ago."

Song Yuanqian on the side bowed and replied to Song Qingming, and also mentioned the "Golden Crown Demon King" they had encountered before.

"There is also a Golden Core Demon King here to hunt. What kind of demon beast is it and what is its cultivation level?"

When Song Qingming heard Song Yuanqian say that a Jindan Demon King had been to the island, his expression suddenly changed subtly. He asked again, seeming to be very interested in the Jindan Demon King that appeared nearby.

Seeing this, Song Yuanqian immediately told the details of the "Golden Crown Demon King"'s demon hunting and the direction the other party left.

After confirming that the other party had gone to another island not far from here, Song Qingming took the two of them on his flying boat without saying a word, and flew quickly to the island pointed out by Song Yuanqian with Huang Siyuan.

As they approached the island, they suddenly heard a sharp cry, and soon the four of them saw the "Golden Crowned Demon King" that had disappeared from Song Yuanqian and the others' sight not long ago.

At this moment, the "Golden Crown Demon King" was still patiently waiting for its prey to appear on this deserted island, but it was suddenly startled by a beam of light that flew from a distance. Looking at the white flying boat that appeared in front of it, the "Golden Crown Demon King" was also very unhappy, and fired several wind blades towards the location where everyone was, trying to destroy the "Phantom Boat" that Song Qingming and others were riding in one blow.

"Stop being so arrogant!"

Seeing that the "Golden Crown Demon King" was coming with great momentum, Song Qingming shouted angrily and immediately activated his magic weapon to jump out of the flying boat, rushing directly to the location of the "Golden Crown Demon King".

Huang Siyuan was also resisting the wind blades released by the "Golden Crown Demon King" while controlling the magic weapon to counterattack the opponent. The two sides immediately started a fierce battle.

".."

A quarter of an hour later, on a beach beside the deserted island, Song Qingming held the inner elixir he had just obtained in his hand, looking at the corpse of the "Golden Crown Demon King" in front of him, with a look of satisfaction on his face.

This demon king in the early stage of the Golden Core Realm had average fighting ability and was no match for Huang Siyuan. Although he was a bird-like demon beast, his escape speed was not as fast as Song Qingming who possessed the "Nine Palaces Meteor Escape". He died in just a few dozen rounds at the combined attack of the two of them.

The reason why Song Qingming spent time chasing and killing the demon king who happened to be nearby was not entirely because he coveted the demon beast materials on it.

The main reason is that this monster likes to go to the deserted island where the huge secret of "Tianyuan Sect" is hidden, which may attract other human monks who hunt monsters.

In order to avoid exposing the secrets under the island as much as possible, Song Qingming decided to kill the "Golden Crown Demon King" completely and eliminate this future trouble for himself in advance.

After collecting the materials from the demon king, Song Qingming led everyone back to the nameless deserted island. After putting away the magic circle set up on the island, they worked together to clean up the things left behind by humans on the island.

Only after all traces of their presence were eliminated did Song Qingming and Huang Siyuan feel completely relieved. They took Song Yuanqian and Song Xuanfeng on a flying boat and left the island.

A few days ago
Looking at the nameless island disappearing in the distance, Song Qingming turned to Song Yuanqian and said seriously:
"You two remember this. Without my permission, you are not allowed to tell anyone about our visit here, not even the elders of other tribes. Do you understand?"

Although Song Yuanqian and the other person did not follow him into the underground cave and were not aware of the secrets hidden under the island, Song Qingming still gave them a special reminder just in case.

After all, this secret realm is of great importance and may even determine the future success or failure of the entire family. For this reason, Song Qingming has to be cautious. The less people know about this, the safer they will be.

"Don't worry, Patriarch. We understand!"

Seeing that Song Qingming attached so much importance to this place, Song Yuanqian and Song Xuanfeng, who were standing on the flying boat, had some doubts on their faces, but they did not dare to ask any more questions. As soon as Song Qingming finished speaking, the two of them nodded and agreed to the matter.

Seeing this, Song Qingming nodded slightly, turned around and began to concentrate on controlling the flying boat under his feet.

Although the "Tianyuan Sea" is located on the edge of the Leiyuan Sea and there are very few Demon Kings above the Nascent Soul stage, there are still many Jindan-level monsters nearby, and occasionally there will be natural disasters such as beast tides. It is not a safe place for Song Qingming and his friends.

Therefore, while traveling here, Song Qingming did not dare to be careless. He tried his best to avoid those sea areas where high-level monsters might appear. He did not want to cause trouble here even if it would take more time.

However, no matter how careful Song Qingming was, it was impossible for the flying boat to completely avoid the attacks of monsters in the open sea where there were many monsters. On the way back, they were still attacked by several groups of monsters.

Fortunately, these monsters were not very strong, and Song Qingming and Huang Siyuan worked together to quickly repel them. They returned to the relatively safe inland sea area safely.

Seeing that islands and traces of cultivators had begun to appear on the sea ahead, Song Qingming and his companions slowly put their minds at ease and slightly reduced the speed of their flying boats.

After returning to the East China Sea, Song Qingming and others found a nearby island to rest for a while. Without staying for too long, they soon set off all the way west to return to the immortal cultivation world of the Floating Cloud Mountains.

After nearly a month of rapid travel, they finally crossed the "Broken Cloud Mountains", then crossed several countries to the east of Wei State, and successfully entered the Yunwu Mountains east of Qinghe County.

After seeing the flying boat pass through Yunwu Mountain and slowly arrive in Qinghe County, Song Qingming and others who had returned to the family territory showed some joy on their faces. After being away for so long, they finally returned safely.

This trip to the East China Sea immortal cultivation world took a total of more than two months. Although it was a little slower than Song Qingming had expected, the trip was still very smooth and did not encounter too many troubles.

All the monster materials he brought were successfully sold in exchange for spirit stones, and he also bought a lot of elixirs and spiritual objects that the family currently needed in "Tian Dan City".

In addition, the most important thing about this trip was the successful opening of the "Tianyuan Sect" secret realm, from which a large number of spiritual medicine resources were obtained, which was something Song Qingming had not expected in advance.

This time, so many good things were brought back from the East China Sea's immortal cultivation world. As long as nothing major happens in Weiguo's immortal cultivation world, both Song Qingming and the entire Song family will have a better opportunity for development.

At this moment, Song Qingming, who was standing in front of the "Phantom Boat", looked at the familiar Qinghe County below, and a hint of excitement slowly flashed in his eyes.

Perhaps one day, under the leadership of his family, the land under his feet will become as prosperous as "Tiandan City".

After the flying boat returned to the family, Song Yuanfang and several other family elders who received the news hurried to the family's "meeting room" to meet Song Qingming who had just returned.

During the time when Song Qingming and his companions were away, the Wei State was very peaceful and no major incidents occurred. The Song family's territory was also peaceful except for the funerals held by the immortal cultivation families every now and then.

Those wandering cultivators who had fled to the south because of the unrest caused by monsters have begun to return to the north of Wei State, and Qinghe County has also added a lot of cultivators recently.

Because the Song family's territory defended the "Jinshanfang", it did not suffer too much loss in the monster riot. It is estimated that in one or two years at most, Qinghe and Pingyang counties will be able to basically return to their pre-riot state.

However, except for the Song family in the northeast corner where the situation was relatively good, other places in the north of Wei State, especially the "Iron Immortal Fort" and "Tuoyun Mountain" in the northwest, suffered very heavy damage.

It is not possible to restore the prosperity before the war in a short period of time. It is estimated that it will take at least several dozen or nearly a hundred years to slowly recover.

Although this once-in-a-century monster riot can bring many opportunities to the cultivators of the Wei country, it will also severely damage the foundation of the human cultivators. If this continues, the cultivation world of the Wei country will find it difficult to get a chance for stable development.

If we want to change the current unfavorable situation, unless the "Xiaoyao Sect" can greatly increase its strength and have one or two more Nascent Soul cultivators, we can change the current situation where the enemy is strong and we are weak.

After seeing the many precious spiritual objects that Song Qingming and his companions brought back from the East China Sea immortal cultivation world, Song Yuanhao and others who happened to be in need of elixirs for their cultivation were also filled with joy at this moment.

These elixirs and spiritual objects are basically low-level spiritual objects that are useful for Qi-refining and foundation-building cultivators to improve or break through their cultivation. Some are also purchased for those cultivators in the family who were injured in the previous monster riots.

Before Song Yuanqian could enter the spiritual objects she brought back into the family's "Gold Pavilion", some of them had already started to reserve the elixir she was holding, and for a while the family's "meeting room" became lively.

Seeing these younger family members so excited, Song Qingming and Huang Siyuan did not interfere too much. After saying a few words to Song Yuanfang, they left the "meeting room" and returned to the cave on the top of the mountain.

All the spiritual objects brought back from "Tiandan City" were handed over to Song Yuanfang and his friends, leaving the younger generations of the family to deal with how to distribute them themselves.

Over the years, under the leadership of Song Yuanfang, the many foundation-building elders of the Song family have become more mature in managing family affairs. Song Qingming and other family ancestors rarely interfere in these trivial family affairs and basically leave them to the younger generations.

After returning from the East China Sea cultivation world, Song Qingming and Huang Siyuan had a rare period of free time. They temporarily put aside the trivial matters in their hands and lived a relaxing and comfortable life.

Except for a trip to Guyang Mountain in the middle, the two of them rarely traveled far. They either drank tea, chatted and enjoyed delicious spiritual food on the mountain, or traveled around the beautiful scenery near the foot of the mountain. Sometimes they would also stroll around the mortal towns.

Two hundred years have passed since Song Qingming entered the "Funiu Mountain" to practice. After traveling all over Qinghe County, he has deeply felt the tremendous changes taking place around him. The memories of his practice in the past inevitably emerge in his mind.

The scenery of the past is still there, but the old friends are no longer there. Thinking back on the path he had taken to cultivate step by step to the Golden Core Realm, Song Qingming felt very emotional.

Who could have imagined that the blue-clothed young man with ordinary talent in Funiu Mountain two hundred years ago would one day become the ancestor of the Song family, famous in the Northeastern cultivation world of Weiguo!

After enjoying a carefree life with Huang Siyuan for more than half a year, Song Qingming, who had almost adjusted his own condition, finally said goodbye to Huang Siyuan and walked into his own retreat cave.

After the monster riots ended, Song Qingming's cultivation reached the peak of the sixth level of the Golden Core. Now he has another "Qianyuan Pill" in his hand that he got from Ye Qiuyuan, and he can start trying to break through his own cultivation realm. (End of this chapter)
