Qinghe Immortal Clan.

At a stall in the outer city, a handsome man in blue was strolling around the stall with a woman in white.

The man's cultivation had reached the sixth level of the Golden Core Realm. He did not show much interest in most of the low-level spiritual objects sold at the stalls in the outer city, and his facial expression remained very dull.

It seemed that he only appeared here patiently in order to accompany the woman in white beside him.

Although his female companion in white was also a Jindan-stage cultivator with great accomplishments, she was obviously much more interested in the novel spiritual creatures before her.

While walking around the stalls, he did not forget to pick up the spiritual objects and ask the shop owners about them, with a smile on his face all the time.

"Brother Liu, this purple coral smells so good and can refresh the mind. It will look nice if you take it back and put it in your cave. What do you think?"

"Junior sister, the fragrance of something like this dug out of the sea will fade in half a year at most. Instead of spending 500 spirit stones on this, you might as well buy a few more bundles of Level 2 Tranquil Incense."

Hearing the blue-clothed man say this, the stall owner immediately showed an unpleasant look on his face, and quickly explained to the two of them:
"Please rest assured, senior. The prices of all the spiritual items on our stall have been determined by the conference, and we will never deceive anyone.

This item is also a unique spiritual item of our Lei Yuanhai. Although its effect is not as good as the second-level Jingshen Incense, it is more beautiful in appearance and is definitely very pleasing to the eye when placed in the cave."

After hearing what the shop owner said, the young man was about to continue speaking when his facial expression suddenly changed and he immediately looked around.

The woman in white saw him like that and thought he was accompanying her shopping, so she became a little impatient and quickly put down the "Purple Coral" in her hand.

"Brother Liu, do you have anything else to do? Why don't we go back first?"

Hearing this, the man in green immediately came to his senses and retracted his gaze. He nodded calmly to the woman in white and said, "Junior sister, I do have some things to deal with, otherwise you can go back to find Fourth Senior Brother first!
I will join you guys as soon as I finish my work here."

Hearing the words of the man in green, the woman in white quickly smiled and nodded, then took the initiative to leave the place.

After the woman in white disappeared for a long time, the man in green picked up the "Purple Coral" she had just put down, then threw down a few hundred spirit stones and turned to leave the stall.

The shop owner, who thought he had missed the deal, saw that the man in green actually bought the item in the end. A look of joy suddenly appeared on his face, and he bowed to express his gratitude as the man in green left.

After leaving the stall, the man in blue walked around the street full of stalls and came to a teahouse on the edge of the outer city that provided a rest space for monks. He then strode in.

After a while, the figure of the man in blue appeared on the second floor of the teahouse. He glanced around and found a figure sitting alone in the corner, then he quickly walked towards the person.

"Junior Brother Song, it's really you!"

Song Qingming, who was originally sitting upright on a chair, stood up quickly and bowed to the person coming after seeing him.

"Brother Liu, I haven't seen you for a long time. I didn't expect to meet you again when I came to Leiyuanhai to attend the trade fair. It really is fate!"

The man in green was none other than Liu Yang, who was a disciple of the "Taixu Sect" of Yuxuan Mountain together with Song Qingming. He was also one of the few fellow disciples Song Qingming was familiar with there.

When Song Qingming just came out of the inner city, he was surprised at first when he saw Liu Yang who was shopping with someone.

Because Song Qingming had never seen the woman in white who had been following Liu Yang in "Taixu Sect" before.

In order to prevent their identities from being revealed, Song Qingming did not choose to meet them in person, but secretly sent a message to lead Liu Yang to the teahouse.

After the two of them sat down again, Song Qingming carefully released a soundproof barrier beside him, then he smiled and poured a cup of spiritual tea for Liu Yang and continued:
"Senior Brother Liu, I wonder which fellow disciple you came with to Lei Yuanhai this time. Senior Sister Li, did Master come with you as well?"

When Liu Yang heard what Song Qingming said, he quickly shook his head and said, "Master is still in seclusion in the sect and has not come to Lei Yuanhai.

Senior Sister Li didn't come this time either. I came with Senior Brother Four and Senior Sister Lin."

"Oh! I thought that Senior Brother came with Master. I wanted to take this opportunity to pay my respects to him. It seems that this opportunity is not enough. I can only wait until I go to the sect in the future to pay my respects to him."

Ever since becoming the apprentice of "Taoist Lingxu", Song Qingming has been looking for an opportunity to ask his master some questions about martial arts.

However, due to the long distance between the immortal cultivation world of the Floating Cloud Mountains and the "Taixu Sect", it takes at least one or two years to go back and forth, which is really inconvenient.

The last time I sent Senior Sister Li Xuanyi back to the immortal cultivation world of "Donghuang Country", I unfortunately met Master "Taoist Lingxu" who was out traveling, and I missed the opportunity.

When Song Qingming first saw Liu Yang, who often followed "Taoist Lingxu", he thought that "Taoist Lingxu" and his senior sister Li Xuanyi might have come to "Tianxin City" together to participate in the trade fair.

Unexpectedly, I guessed the wrong answer. Neither of them came!

When Song Qingming heard the answer from Liu Yang, a look of disappointment appeared on his face, and he couldn't help but sigh with regret.

Seeing Song Qingming's face was a little disappointed, Liu Yang immediately smiled and said:

"If you want to see Master, it won't be difficult. Master will be out of seclusion in one or two years at most. You will most likely not be disappointed when you go to the sect.

But Senior Sister Li hasn't been to the sect for some time. I don't know if she has something going on at home or if she is traveling again.

If you meet her, I really don’t know how to answer you.”

When Song Qingming heard Liu Yang mention Li Xuanyi, he was slightly stunned, and asked with a little confusion: "Oh! Senior Sister Li hasn't returned to the sect for a long time?"

As a half-disciple of "Taoist Lingxu", and her family's location is not far from "Taixu Sect", Li Xuanyi often returns to the sect to practice except when she goes out to travel.

When Song Qingming heard Liu Yang say that Li Xuanyi had not returned to "Taixu Gate" for a long time, he couldn't help but feel a little confused and asked another question with some confusion.

Upon hearing this, Liu Yang also shook his head and said, “Junior Brother Song also knows that I don’t leave the sect often.

I only saw Senior Sister Li when she came to the sect before, so I don’t know much about her. If you have a chance, you should ask Master directly to get more information.”

"Well! Senior Sister Li saved me back then. If she needs any help, please let me know when you find out.

Although my abilities are limited, I will never forget the kindness you have shown me. If you need me, I will do my best to help you."

"Don't worry, Junior Brother Song. I'll make a note of this!"

Seeing Song Qingming's serious expression, Liu Yang immediately nodded slightly in response, and then changed the subject and asked Song Qingming: "To be honest, when I came to Leiyuanhai this time, I didn't expect to meet Junior Brother Song here.

Junior Brother, your cultivation is about to break through the ninth level of the Golden Core. You must have come here for the infant-forming spiritual object of Liuyun Sect. I wonder if Junior Brother Song has achieved his wish this time?"

Seeing Song Qingming appear at the "Tianxin City" trading conference, Liu Yang guessed a little about his purpose. After answering his question, he asked out of some curiosity.

In this regard, Song Qingming did not deny it and told Liu Yang directly that he had bought a "Nourishing Infant Pill" and even mortgaged several magic weapons for it.

Liu Yang had been a member of the Taixu Sect longer than Song Qingming. When Song Qingming first met him, Liu Yang was already an inner sect disciple, and his status in the sect was higher than that of outer sect disciples like Song Qingming.

In the "Taixu Sect", the inner disciples are the core of the sect and are the focus of training. Regardless of whether they are forming a pill or condensing a Nascent Soul, they can generally receive support from the sect.

Outer disciples like Song Qingming were basically accepted by "Taoist Lingxu" by chance. Apart from not revealing the sect's affairs, there were not many requirements for them.

Therefore, the "Taixu Sect" did not pay much attention to these outer disciples. Apart from giving them some convenience in imparting skills, it generally did not give priority to supporting outer disciples in forming infants.

If Song Qingming wants to condense his Nascent Soul, he must rely on himself to find spiritual objects and methods to assist in forming the Nascent Soul.

There was no need for Song Qingming to hide this from Liu Yang, and he didn't have to worry that his inner disciple would reveal his secrets.

“Senior Brother Liu, I originally came here with a few friends to broaden my horizons, and I never thought I would have the opportunity to take a picture of this spiritual object.

I was not well prepared when I came here, and I almost missed this opportunity.

For this elixir, I spent all my spiritual stones on it. Now I have several magic weapons pledged at the auction, and I don’t know how to get them back.

I feel a little ashamed to say this!"

"Oh! Junior Brother Song, how many spirit stones are you still short of? You might as well tell me. It is a rare thing for us to meet here, so we should help each other."

Upon hearing that Song Qingming had mortgaged several of his magic weapons in order to auction the "Ying Pei Dan", Liu Yang immediately started to inquire about the matter, looking as if he wanted to help him solve this problem.

Back in the "Taixu Sect", Song Qingming and Liu Yang had known each other for many years, and they knew that Liu Yang had a straightforward personality and did not like to beat around the bush when dealing with others. Seeing that the other party took the initiative to mention this matter, Song Qingming, who wanted to ask for help from the other party, directly told Liu Yang about the spiritual stones he was short of, and wanted to ask him to borrow some spiritual stones for emergency use.

Song Qingming still had more than 20,000 spirit stones left on him, and with the ones from Song Yuanhao and the others, he could at least make up more than 10,000 spirit stones.

As long as Liu Yang could lend him 30,000 spirit stones, Song Qingming would be able to redeem those magic weapons.

Although for a sixth-level Jindan cultivator like Liu Yang, tens of thousands of spirit stones are indeed not a large number.

But after all, the other party also came to the "Lei Yuan Hai" cultivation world to participate in the trade conference, and he would definitely not spend less spirit stones here. Song Qingming was still a little unsure whether he could help him.

No matter how many spirit stones the other party can lend him, it will always be helpful to Song Qingming. Even if he cannot redeem all three magic weapons, it would be good to get back one or two first.

When he took the initiative to propose to borrow the spirit stones, Song Qingming was a little surprised that Liu Yang did not hesitate too much and quickly took out a storage bag full of spirit stones and threw it to him.

It was filled with the 30,000 spirit stones that Song Qingming needed, which made him excited for a moment. He quickly stood up and thanked Liu Yang.

Seeing this, Liu Yang immediately smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Junior Brother Song, there is no need to be so polite.

Although we haven't met often in these years, no matter what, you and Senior Sister Li helped me teach me the skills in the sect back then, and I should remember this favor.

It's just a small matter of borrowing tens of thousands of spirit stones, so you don't have to worry too much about it."

Seeing the other party say this, Song Qingming nodded repeatedly and said: "Brother Liu is right, this matter between you and me is naturally nothing.

However, this time, my senior brother took out so many spirit stones to help me with the emergency. After all, it was a great help to me, so it is reasonable for me to thank him.

Don't worry, Senior Brother, I will definitely bring these spiritual stones back to you next time I return to the sect to practice."

"Haha! Don't worry, Junior Brother Song. I'm not in a hurry. Just make your own arrangements."

After successfully borrowing the spirit stones, Song Qingming was very happy. He chatted with Liu Yang in the teahouse for a long time. Only when the pot of spirit tea was finished did they walk out of the teahouse reluctantly.

"Brother Liu, it is inconvenient to be away from home, so I won't bother you today.

When you are free someday, please ask Senior Brother Liu to pass me a message and I will come to visit you again."

"Yes! Don't worry, Junior Brother Song. We won't be going back so soon. I will explain this to Senior Brother Four and the others later. We can have a good gathering when we are free."

Seeing Liu Yang's back gradually disappearing in the street, Song Qingming couldn't help but reach out to touch the storage bag on his waist, and a look of satisfaction appeared on his face.

Originally, he didn't know how to raise the spirit stones for the time being, but he didn't expect that he had solved this problem smoothly not long after he came out. Song Qingming felt relieved at this moment.

At the beginning, Song Qingming did think about asking Bai Yuxian to borrow spirit stones.

But if the other party asked him directly about this matter, it would be difficult for him to hide it. With Bai Yuxian's cleverness, once he knew that Song Qingming had even mortgaged his own magic weapon, it would not be difficult for him to guess that he had bid for the "Ying Pei Dan".

Song Qingming really didn't want too many people to know about this. It was also an extremely dangerous thing for him now.

From the perspective of the "Xiaoyao Sect", the current Song family is just a slightly larger Jindan family under their command. Even if there are one or two more Jindan cultivators, it will not pose much of a threat to them.

But if a Nascent Soul cultivator suddenly appeared in the Song family, the situation would be somewhat different.

It is unknown whether the "Xiaoyao Sect" will allow the existence of the Song family, which can threaten them, whether the two sides can maintain peace, or whether there will be any conflicts of interest.

Even though Song Qingming had no doubts about Bai Yuxian's character at this moment, he did not dare to gamble his life and the future of his family with this matter.
-
Half a day later, Song Qingming, who had redeemed several of his magic weapons from the backstage of the auction, returned to the inner city auction with a happy face.

Although he spent several thousand more spirit stones for this, it was already a trivial matter for Song Qingming, who had already spent hundreds of thousands of spirit stones here.

It was just a pity for Song Yuanhao and his companions. The spirit stones on them had been basically looted by their ancestor Song Qingming. Now they had no choice but to leave the trade fair early and return to their cave to practice in seclusion.

When Song Qingming came back, the auction was already a stage where cultivators were freely trading spiritual objects. The white-haired old men who presided over the auction had already handed over the auction stage to the cultivators who came up on stage one by one.

However, although there was no one to maintain the rules on the spot, many monks who came to participate in the auction were still relatively disciplined.

Those who went on stage at the beginning were basically all cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage, and no Jindan cultivator dared to go on stage before them.

The spiritual objects that these Nascent Soul cultivators wanted to purchase or exchange were basically precious spiritual objects of level four or above. Some of these things Song Qingming had never seen, let alone even heard of.

Because fourth-level spiritual objects are so rare and precious, even though there are nearly two hundred Nascent Soul-level cultivators on the scene, there are still not many cultivators who can successfully obtain the spiritual objects they want at such an exchange meeting.

In addition to several fourth-level magic weapons, Song Qingming also had two fourth-level low-grade spiritual medicines that he brought out from the secret realm of "Tianyuan Sect" that year, which he could take out to exchange for the spiritual objects he needed.

However, at this kind of exchange meeting where cultivators are required to show up voluntarily, Song Qingming still didn't dare to take it out to exchange with others casually, for fear that he would be targeted by those Nascent Soul monsters with ulterior motives.

In "Tianxin City", he naturally doesn't have to worry about anyone plotting against him, but Song Qingming is not a cultivator here after all. Once he leaves this place and returns to Weiguo, some things will be difficult to guard against.

Moreover, once the sect knew the origins of these two spiritual medicines and asked about it, it would also be difficult for Song Qingming to explain. There was really no need to cause himself this trouble.

(PS: I saw someone asking about spiritual medicine yesterday. Let me explain here. It’s not that I forgot about these two level 4 spiritual medicines, but Song Qingming himself was reluctant to exchange them for spiritual stones. After all, the value of a level 3 magic weapon is definitely lower than that of a level 4 spiritual medicine. Yes, it’s his problem!)

Therefore, even when he saw the Nascent Soul cultivator on the stage asking for a fourth-level spiritual medicine, Song Qingming remained unmoved and had no intention of selling the two spiritual medicines he had.

Just as Song Qingming was watching the Nascent Soul cultivators walking around the stage one by one, a somewhat familiar figure suddenly walked onto the stage, causing Song Qingming, who was staring at her, to have a look of confusion on his face.

The woman who came on stage was dressed in white and had a veil on her face to conceal her features. Her figure was very similar to that of Fairy Xia Mo, the Holy Maiden of the "Hundred Flowers Palace" that Song Qingming knew.

However, the Fairy Xia Mo whom Song Qingming knew back then was only at the ninth level of the Golden Core Realm, while the pressure emanating from the woman in white on the auction stage had already surpassed that of Fairy Bai Yuxian, and she seemed to have broken through to the second level of the Nascent Soul Realm.

When Song Qingming went to the "Hundred Flowers Palace" in the East China Sea to exchange spiritual objects for repairing the formation in his hand, he happened to meet Xia Mo who was in seclusion trying to break through to the Nascent Soul stage. Later, Song Qingming didn't know whether she succeeded or not.

Over the years, when Song Qingming was communicating with He Mengxin, he also asked the other party about Xia Mo's baby formation, but the other party did not give a direct answer to this matter. Song Qingming once thought that Xia Mo might have failed to form a baby this time.

Compared to Bai Yuxian, this was Xia Mo's first time to reach the Nascent Soul stage. In Song Qingming's opinion, it was not surprising that she failed to form a Nascent Soul.

But at this moment, when he saw the familiar woman in white on the stage, Song Qingming intuitively felt that the other person was most likely "Xia Mo", and a very puzzled look appeared on his face.

"Could it be that Xia Mo really succeeded in reaching the Nascent Soul stage!"

Thinking of this, Song Qingming's mind reappeared the confident Xia Mo from the past, and he couldn't help but feel a little shaken in his heart.

If Xia Mo really succeeded in forming a fetus, then her talent for cultivation was truly too amazing.

In just thirty years, Xia Mo not only successfully broke through to the Nascent Soul realm, but also advanced to the second level of Nascent Soul faster than Bai Yuxian. This really made Song Qingming feel a little bit unbelievable no matter how he thought about it.

The "Xia Mo" who came on stage waved his hand and took out a fourth-grade low-grade spiritual fruit from his body, wanting to exchange it with the cultivator present for a water-attributed defensive magic weapon of the same level.

Although the value of a fourth-level low-grade spiritual fruit is slightly lower than that of a defensive magic weapon of the same level.

However, since "Xia Mo" was willing to add tens of thousands of spirit stones, her luck was good in the end. She got what she wanted and exchanged it for the spiritual object she needed. She walked down the stage with a satisfied look on her face.

After her, the several Nascent Soul cultivators who came on stage later were not so lucky and all walked down the stage empty-handed.

Among the several Nascent Soul cultivators that Song Qingming knew, Bai Yuxian and Zheng Zitong, who were traveling with him, also took to the stage.

Bai Yuxian originally wanted to exchange a fourth-level refining material in her hand for a fourth-level low-grade talisman, but unfortunately, no one was interested in the spiritual object she took out.

On the contrary, Zheng Zitong was luckier. With the help of a fourth-level spiritual medicine in his hand, he exchanged it for the elixir he wanted and walked down from the stage happily.

After all the Nascent Soul cultivators left the stage, it was the turn of the Golden Core cultivators who had been eager to try to come on stage and exchange the spiritual objects in their hands.

During this period, Song Qingming saw many familiar figures appear on the stage, including Chu Fengping, Chen Xuanxin, and Zhang Tieyang who were traveling with him.

The only one who didn't have any extra spiritual items to trade was Song Qingming, who never took the initiative to go on stage, but chose to quietly become a spectator. (End of this chapter)
