Inquiry about immortality

Chapter 2077 Retreat

Feeling the improvement in his cultivation, Qin Sang nodded secretly. This breakthrough was smoother than expected, but the foundation was very solid. It was not like the breakthrough in the Void Refining Stage, which left many hidden dangers and required more time to make up for.

Next, once your cultivation is solidified, you can start building the Thunder Altar.

Qin Sang spread out his spiritual sense and found that the noise of the breakthrough was too loud, and the forbidden formation he had set up before was unable to block it all. However, under the cover of the forbidden formation, the impact was limited to a nearby sea area and did not alarm others.

Zhuque flapped his wings and flew back to the island, looking at Qin Sang with envy, "You have made another breakthrough!"

"Congratulations, Master, for your great achievement!"

Marquis Gui and Marquis Luo both bowed and congratulated.

Qin Sang looked at Zhuque, "You still have some of the Qilin source essence left, haven't you refined it yet?"

After planning to extract the essence of the Qilin source seed, Qin Sang refined a portion of it, but did not keep it for himself. He kept his promise and gave part to Suzaku.

He knew that Suzaku had hidden some away.

"I had a feeling that breaking through to the Void Refining Stage might not be easy, and it turned out to be just as I expected! These Qilin essences might be able to help me break through," Suzaku raised his little head proudly, feeling proud of his foresight.

The Vermillion Bird was a very special being. It was once a powerful being. The First Sword Servant reshaped the Vermillion Bird's spirit and gave it a new life, but it was not completely a complete reconstruction by a powerful being, because it was no longer the Vermillion Bird of yesterday, and none of its previous cultivation experience existed. Therefore, it cultivated very quickly, but it still encountered obstacles.

It also benefited from the witch clan's praises and spells, and its cultivation had long been close to the brink of a breakthrough. It has been comprehending the obstacles in recent years.

"Oh? So you weren't sleeping," Qin Sang laughed deliberately.

As expected, Zhuque immediately got furious and shouted, "You ran all the way from Fengju Yumen to the Fog Sea. How could I have a chance to retreat? Hurry back to the mountain. I, Zhuque, want to retreat! Now! Right now!"

Qin Sang stopped teasing it. He would be happy to see Suzaku break through, as it would be another great general.

After erasing all traces on the island, Qin Sang returned to the land.

After receiving Qin Sang's order, Li Yufu sent a message to summon the disciples of Qingyang Temple from all over the place. More and more disciples came, and when they learned that their master was going to open a mountain gate here, they were all overjoyed and joined in immediately.

Between the mountains, the brilliance of Taoism flashes from time to time, monks come and go, and the vital energy of heaven and earth is constantly fluctuating.

Qin Sang had a full view of the bustling scene below. In fact, it was the fastest for the cultivators of the Void Refining Sect to draw the spiritual veins and establish the spiritual power, but it would arouse suspicion from the outside world. Involving every disciple of the Qingyang Temple would also enhance the cohesion of the sect.

Qin Sang's eyes swept across the enthusiastic faces. The sect seemed united and full of vigor. He couldn't help but nod slightly.

Qingyang Temple developed very well under Li Yufu's leadership, and the affairs inside and outside the sect were in good order. There was competition among the disciples of different sects, and conflicts were inevitable, but Li Yufu would not sit idly by and watch the hatred accumulate. He actively mediated and nipped the seeds in the bud. He was able to maintain the majesty of the temple master, and was fair and strict. Shen Chen and others were convinced by him.

Just based on these points, he is more than qualified to be a king who maintains the status quo.

As for opening up the future, having a master like me is enough. When I need to leave for something in the future, I can rest assured to hand over the dojo to Li Yufu.

Li Yufu built a temporary palace first. When Qin Sang entered the palace, he immediately sensed two obscure auras and knew that Si Lu and Su Nu had returned.

Su Nu and others also sensed Qin Sang's return and greeted him in the hall.

Qin Sang stepped into the hall. Li Yufu and others bowed in greeting, not noticing anything wrong.

Su Nu looked at Qin Sang carefully, surprise flashed in her beautiful eyes, and she bowed, "Congratulations, Brother Qin, for making another step forward in your path!"

"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Qin."

Si Lu had a complicated expression, feeling both surprised and happy.

Unexpectedly, Qin Sang broke through to the middle stage of the Void Refining Realm in a blink of an eye. He was able to fight against late-stage masters when he was in the early stage of the Void Refining Realm. How powerful must he be now?

This made Si Lu even more determined in his previous thoughts.

Li Yufu and others then realized that Qin Sang had made another breakthrough. They couldn't help but show their joy and congratulated him.

Qin Sang glanced around and saw that except Gu Ya, everyone else was there.

"Gu Ya couldn't wait to return to her master before she even landed," said Su Nu.

Qin Sang nodded. He had specifically learned about this. The Xu Ling Sect had lost two sect leaders and inherited spiritual treasures in succession and had gone through a period of downturn, but the sect's foundation was still there and it had not fallen into decline. It had produced several good successors.

"Did the journey go smoothly?"

Si Lu said, "When I set out, Taoist Su Nu had already moved here. Fortunately, I met her halfway. I almost missed her."

Su Nu smiled mischievously, flicked her fingers and a blue powder popped out, which fell on her body. Her appearance changed immediately, her hair turned blue, and she was transformed into a Hanhuang person.

Qin Sang looked carefully and was still able to see the flaws.

"This is Han Yao grass powder, a specialty of Hanhuang country. It can imitate 90% of the aura of Hanhuang people. The guards of the Zhuyan tribe are stupid and dumb, and they can be fooled by a little trick," Su Nu said with a giggle.

Si Lu reminded him, "You are lucky this time. You didn't encounter any masters from the Zhuyan tribe. Their spiritual perception is very sharp. Defeating them openly will make them convinced. Using this method will only anger them."

Qin Sang said: "You should already know what the current situation is. Do you have any suggestions?"

Su Nu said: "The strongest of the Changyou tribe is only at the late stage of the Spiritualization Stage. We can destroy them with a single blow. But Brother Qin is not taking any action. He must have some considerations in mind."

"It's hard to kill the whole clan even if we can kill one person! We still don't know what means of communication there are between Chang You and Zhu Yan. If we cause public outrage, the consequences will be unbearable for us..."

Qin Sang expressed his concerns and said to Su Nu in a deep voice, "Therefore, there is something you need to do!"

Su Nu said seriously: "Brother Qin, please give me your orders!"

"Surrounded by alien races, the Storm Realm is like standing on a dangerous wall. We must prepare for the rainy day. If the Zhuyan Clan cannot accommodate us and a strong enemy invades, we must have a way to retreat. I will stay here and build the altar. Fellow Daoist Silu's injuries have not healed yet, so you have to go there in person."

Qin Sang couldn't pin all his hopes on the mercy of the alien race. The situation might not get that bad, but he had to prepare for the worst.

Su Nu thought for a moment, "Brother Qin, do you mean the interior of the fog tide?"

"Not bad!"

Qin Sang nodded.

In the sea of ​​fog, only the fog tide is a truly ownerless land, and the territories of various tribes are divided by the fog tide.

It is said that in some places the fog tide is extremely vast, and there may be places inside that can be inhabited, but they have not yet been discovered by the Inhumans. As long as such a place is found, you can rest assured in the future.

Even if there is no such thing, finding a safe piece of land in the fog can serve as a temporary shelter, and as many people as possible can be relocated there before the crisis comes.

Qin Sang asked Jihong indirectly and learned that the Jiao Yao tribe had bred a fine variety that could grow in the fog. With Jihong's help, even a mortal could persist for many years.

As he spoke, Qin Sang summoned two demon lords and asked Su Nu to pick some people to take with them.

Su Nu thought for a moment, then looked at the water on Si Lu's shoulder and asked, "Can you come with me?"

"Yeah!"

Ji Hong readily agreed.

Traveling around and searching for alien species is the instinct of the Jiao Yao tribe, and it is also their practice. Si Lu is with Qin Sang, so there is no need to worry about his safety, and he can also do his own thing with peace of mind.

Su Nu smiled, and then pointed out the brothers Qing Jia and Qing Yi, "Let these two guys go with me. Maybe they won't need to go into the fog tide, and they can be used to deal with other tribes. The others stay to help Brother Qin."

She has always been decisive and resolute. After discussing some details with Qin Sang, she was ready to leave immediately.

Qin Sang called Su Nu and described Liu Li's characteristics. "If you meet her, tell her she can come back."

Su Nu glanced at Qin Sang, nodded, and took Ji Hong and the two brothers with her to fly away. They disappeared into the sky in a moment.

At this moment, the imperial command on Li Yufu's waist flashed, and he smiled slightly, "Huanhen has returned to the mountain and is about to come to pay a visit. Do you want to see him, uncle?"

Qin Sang looked outside the palace and saw a sword rainbow coming from the west, piercing through the sky and breaking through the clouds.

In the sword rainbow is a young man with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. He is one with the sword and is unstoppable.

Feeling the youth's momentum, Qin Sang nodded secretly and looked at the sword slave. "The sword art this boy practices is derived from the way of killing swords. The predecessor who created this method died before he could perfect it. This boy can surpass his predecessor, which shows his talent. Are you interested in giving him some pointers to let him know that there are always people better than you, so as to prevent him from becoming arrogant?"

The sword slave nodded, "As fellow sword practitioners, we should confirm each other's sword skills!"

After saying that, he walked out of the palace.

Li Yufu quickly gave Shen Chen some instructions and asked him to follow.

With the cultivation level of the sword slave, there was no need to verify anything through Huanhen. His willingness to guide Huanhen was undoubtedly a great opportunity for Huanhen. After Huanhen broke through to the spirit transformation, it was difficult to find a sword cultivator comparable to him in the Storm Realm. Li Yufu and Liuli also found it difficult to guide him. They had always been worried that he would make mistakes. Finally, someone could guide him.

After everyone left, Si Lu also took her leave and went back to heal her wounds.

Qingyang Temple was going to open a new mountain gate and vacate Luye's cave. Qin Sang gave his original cave to Silu so that he could heal his wounds in peace.

Soon, only Qin Sang, Li Yufu and the two demon marquises were left in the hall.

Qin Sang ordered, "Lord Luo, you will stay here from now on, waiting for Yu Fu's orders and helping him open the mountain gate. Lord Gui, you can go out and try to blend into the demon tribe, but don't reveal your origins and cultivation for the time being."

"Follow the law!"

The two demon lords took the order and retreated.

Gui Hou quietly left the palace, turned into a wisp of light smoke, and disappeared in an instant.

Luo Hou was arranged by Li Yufu to meditate in Luye, and there was nothing for her to do for the time being.

Li Yufu hurried back to the palace, reported to Qin Sang, and took Qin Sang to the back mountain of the palace.

A stone cave was opened up in the back mountain at some point, with a winding stone path leading directly to the ground. It was cool and shady underground, with no underground river, only an empty hall.

There is a clear spring in the center of the hall, with gurgling spring water bubbling out of it. Extremely rich spiritual energy permeates the entire hall. It is indeed a spiritual spring!
The migration of the spiritual veins in Qingyang Temple has begun to show results. This spiritual spring was formed by the convergence of the spiritual veins. In the future, this will be the place with the richest spiritual energy in Qingyang Temple.

This is the first thing Qin Sang instructed to be built.

Li Yufu said respectfully: "Uncle Master, this Wang Lingquan was born not long ago, and the nearby spiritual veins have not yet been fully integrated."

Qin Sang spread out his spiritual sense and found a few inconsistencies. This was inevitable. The cultivation of the Qingyang Temple disciples was still insufficient, and they had done their best.

Later, with the guidance of the formation, the most perfect balance will be gradually achieved.

Qin Sang couldn't wait that long, so he sorted it out himself and nodded, "Yes, I will practice here from now on. If you have any questions, come and find me here."

As he spoke, Qin Sang summoned the Fire Jade Centipede, watched it rub against the back of his hand, sighed in his heart, and said, "Let it practice in the back mountain from now on, and don't disturb it unless necessary."

The Fire Jade Centipede was increasingly unable to keep up with his pace.

He keeps pursuing the great path, but there will always be people who fall behind along the way, like Tan Hao and Mu Yifeng, who are beyond his control.

If the Fire Jade Centipede cannot catch up, becoming the Qingyang Guardian Mountain Spirit Insect may be the best outcome.

"Disciple retire!"

When Li Yufu exited the cave, he saw a flash of light at the entrance, filled with the powerful force of a formation.

The Fire Jade Centipede circled around and couldn't leave, and finally coiled into a ball at the entrance of the cave.

……

Inside the cave.

Qin Sang walked to the edge of the spiritual spring, and the Qianjun Ring flashed. Several spiritual objects flew out and hovered above his palm.

Then, spiritual objects fell into his palm one after another, allowing him to manipulate them at will. Soon, an ancient stone platform was formed.

He pressed his palm downwards, and the stone platform fell into the spiritual spring.

'boom! ’

This caused the mountains to shake, but the shaking was very slight. It might also be that Qin Sang suppressed the shaking, and no one in Qingyang Temple noticed it.

The top of the stone platform emerged from the water, and endless spiritual energy poured in from all directions.

This is not the Thunder Altar. When Qin Sang's cultivation is stable, Qingyang Temple should have already established its inspiration. That will be the best time to build the altar.

A flash of fire appeared between his eyebrows, and a lotus platform slowly floated out. He stretched out his hand again, and the Qilin egg fell into his palm.

The vitality seems to be a little stronger than before, but still very weak.

Qin Sang gently placed the Qilin egg on the stone platform, and saw a flash of light on the surface of the eggshell. The vitality instinctively devoured the spiritual energy, and a few tiny strands of spiritual energy penetrated into the eggshell and were absorbed by it.

After observing for a while, Qin Sang thought to himself, "It seems that the Qilin True Spirit cannot be born instantly by absorbing spiritual energy. It should be regarded as a brand new life that needs a growth process. But it is indeed beneficial to be immersed in abundant spiritual energy. It can speed up this process. However, when it can be born is still unknown..."

Just as he had a thought, he saw a red light falling on the stone platform. The Vermilion Bird arched its wings and pushed the Qilin egg to the side. It took up half of the space without hesitation and crawled down next to the Qilin egg.

"do not bother me!"

After warning Qin Sang, Zhuque buried his head in his wings, breathing steadily and long.

Qin Sang smiled, and his spiritual consciousness touched the Qianjun Ring again, and a small tree flew out, which was the Vajra Bodhi tree.

He selected a spot beside the sacred spring and planted the Vajra Bodhi tree with his own hands. The tree almost immediately became energetic, with its leaves glossy and its growth much better than when it was in the North Sea.

Qin Sang nodded with satisfaction, thinking to himself, "When I have time, I should ask Ji Hong for advice on how to cultivate the spiritual treasure tree."

He took out a cushion, sat cross-legged beside the spring, and entered into a state of meditation.

Beside him are a precious tree, a red bird and a unicorn.
