Journey to the head

Level 4 high-level spiritual vein!

Lu Qian was shocked. The innate spiritual energy produced by the destruction of the fourth-level intermediate spiritual vein in Liekong Mountain was already tempting enough. The Mingyu Sword Sect was expected to become the target of public criticism and could not preserve it. They had to give half of it to the Xuanwei Sect to compete for the innate spiritual energy.

When the fourth-level high-level spiritual vein is destroyed, the innate spiritual energy generated is enough to allow the Nascent Soul Spirit Lord to be promoted to a small level, which is more than enough to promote the Nascent Soul to the late Nascent Soul stage and the Nascent Soul perfection.

The process of the spirit vein's destruction lasts a very long time. After this fourth-level high-level spirit vein shows signs of destruction, it must be closely protected. How could it be taken away by others?

Then I heard Taoist Gu continue to say: "After the innate spiritual energy was taken away, Luzhou has been in chaos, the war has spread, and there are many evil cultivators who want to fish in troubled waters. If you can avoid it, don't go."

Lu Qian asked, "Whose innate spiritual energy was taken away?"

Lu Qian, the "white-faced man", has become a celebrity at the Wanling Immortal Grass Conference because he can provide an endless supply of earth elemental spiritual objects, and his every move attracts much attention.

Naturally, there were people who were keeping an eye on Lu Qian, but Lu Qian had always been very careful in his actions. Not only had he never revealed his true identity, but he also entered and exited the Wanling Xiancao Club through a special passage in the Haiyuan Pavilion, making it impossible to investigate or intercept him.

Over the years, there really was a group of three Jindan demon cultivators who specialized in robbing and looting. They had ruined countless cultivators. They had a way of tracking people and secretly plotted against Lu Qian.

Except for the fact that the Wanling Xiancao Society is strictly prohibited from fighting during gatherings, no one will care if they fight to the death outside the house.

Many people sighed and lamented that after being targeted by this group of evil cultivators, Qi Bailian was doomed to die.

However, at the next gathering, Qi Bailian still showed up in style, but the three Jindan demon cultivators never showed up again.

The monks who were waiting to watch the fun were all awed, and from then on they gave up the idea of ​​causing trouble for Lu Qian.

This old Taoist priest is also a frequent visitor to the Wanling Immortal Herb Association and has attracted a lot of attention.

Now the two of them stood together, naturally attracting attention. In addition, the two of them did not deliberately hide the content of their discussion. The news that Luzhou's innate spiritual energy was taken away attracted a group of cultivators to gather around.

Seeing that everyone was very interested, Taoist Gu smiled and said, "The owner of that fourth-level high-level spiritual vein is a Yuanying sect in Luzhou, called the Jinling Sect."

"After the spirit vein showed signs of destruction, they took it very seriously and arranged for several Jindan to guard it for a long time. When the spirit vein was about to be destroyed, even the Yuanying Spirit Lord went to guard it personally."

Jinlingmen?
I have heard of this name before. It turns out to be a Nascent Soul Sect. They do have the ability to take the innate spiritual energy for themselves and not share it, but they also have to bear the risks alone.

But the Jinling Sect never expected that the risk would become a reality.

"When the spiritual vein was destroyed, a group of strong men suddenly appeared and took away the innate spiritual energy." Taoist Gu lowered his voice, "Guess who did it?"

There were many different opinions. Some said it was from a hostile sect, some said it was not even from a Nascent Soul sect and it had to be from a Spiritual Sect, and some said it was a conspiracy between independent cultivators and thieves.

Then I heard Taoist Mushroom say mysteriously: "None of them are right. Have you ever heard of——"

"Zombie chaos in Dengzhou?"

For a moment, Lu Qian was startled.

Corpse clan? !
"It is said that the one who took away the innate spiritual energy was a corpse slave controlled by the corpse clan!" The monks around him gasped, and Taoist Gu continued, "The corpse evil on the corpse slave could not be concealed, so he was recognized. What do you think, now that this corpse clan monster has come to Luzhou, can we still go to Luzhou?"

Lu Qian's heartbeat quickened. The corpse tribe had already arrived in Luzhou? They also controlled the corpse slaves to steal the innate spiritual energy?

Many speculations came to my mind at once.

On the one hand, the remnants of the corpse clan that survived the Dengzhou corpse chaos have recovered their strength and even made progress!
After the Corpse Clan left the Corpse Prison Ridge, they kept their whereabouts secret and secretly controlled the Dachi Tower of the Jindan Sect. Later, they were surrounded and suppressed by Dengzhou and escaped.

I didn't expect that after decades, he would be so rampant and directly robbed the innate spiritual energy of the Yuanying sect, the Jinling sect.

On the other hand, what use is there for the corpse clan to have innate spiritual energy? They have completely opposite characteristics to living creatures, and any spiritual object that is useful to living creatures is extremely poisonous to them.

Therefore, they must be using innate spiritual energy to cultivate their own power!
...Is the prophecy of the great disaster in Cangzhou related to the corpse clan? !
Lu Qian was so distracted that he didn't even hear Master Gu's call for a while.

After coming to his senses, he could only hurriedly bow and said, "Thank you, Senior Gu, for clearing up my doubts. It seems that I really can't go to Luzhou. I hope that the Luzhou sect can act quickly and kill all these evil corpses."

Just as Taoist Gu was about to speak, another cultivator beside Lu Qian suddenly said in a shrill voice, "Master Qi, if you care about the information about the corpse clan, I have a piece of information here. Are you willing to exchange it?"

The voice was sharp and thin, and it was obvious that it was a fake voice using spiritual power. Lu Qian turned around and saw that it was actually a foundation-building feathered warrior.

The entry threshold for the Wanling Immortal Grass Society is not low, and very few people have to build a foundation. To be able to join the society, one must be very skilled in cultivating spiritual medicines and refining elixirs.

He covered his face. Lu Qian was a little wary, but the corpse clan was a big deal, so he nodded, left the crowd with him, and came to the quiet room provided by Haiyuan Pavilion.

"I don't know what to call this fellow Taoist?"

The man continued to use his spiritual power to vibrate his voice: "Just call me Hu Zi. I want to use the information about the corpse clan to exchange for information with fellow Daoist Qi."

It doesn't sound like a cultivator's name, but everyone in the Xiancao Society uses pseudonyms, so it doesn't matter.

Lu Qian nodded and said, "Of course we can exchange intelligence. What kind of intelligence do you have and what kind of information do you plan to exchange?"

"I know where the zombies are now."

Lu Qian was shocked and felt suspicious.

Once the corpse clan is exposed, they will cause a siege. Their whereabouts are extremely secretive. So many powerful sects don’t know about them. How can this foundation-building clan know about them?
He said in a deep voice: "This is a serious matter. I cannot trust you casually. I hope you can ask Haiyuan Pavilion to send the gold letter paper and let Haiyuan Pavilion do it for you. If you think the brokerage fee for the gold letter paper is too high, I am willing to bear it."

Hu Zi shook his head, with some sarcasm in his voice: "It's not about the cost. It's about the corpse clan. Haiyuan Pavilion is unwilling, or dare not, to act as an intermediary."

Lu Qian fell silent. It was like this! But thinking about it, Haiyuan Pavilion must know the relationship between the Corpse Clan and the Immortal Emperor Corpse. Even if Haiyuan Pavilion has great magical powers, it is unwilling to offend Emperor Corpse.

But without the intermediary of Haiyuan Pavilion, how could Lu Qian believe that such a foundation-building person could know the location of the corpse clan?
Seeing Lu Qian's hesitation, Hu Zi continued, "But I can swear on my heart that I won't lie. Besides, don't you want to hear what information I want to exchange?"

Seeing Lu Qian looking at him, Hu Zi said word by word: "I want to exchange information about Jade Tiger Master of the Great Red Tower in Dengzhou."

"I will tell you where the corpse clan is now, and you tell me everything you know about Jade Tiger Master."

Lu Qian had no idea how many times he had been surprised while participating in this gathering of all kinds of immortal herbs.

How does he know? !
Wait, he calls himself "Hu Zi", could he be Jade Tiger Immortal's——

"You are joking, fellow Daoist." Lu Qian said lightly, "I heard that the Great Red Tower had long been destroyed in the chaos of corpses in Dengzhou. This is the first time I have heard of the name Jade Tiger Master."

Hu Zi suddenly became excited and couldn't even hide his original voice. "Why did Master Qi lie to me! If you don't know Master Yu Hu, how did you get the prescription for the Pure Glass Body!"

"And why are you so interested in the affairs of the zombie clan?"

"Master, please don't lie to me. I have been following you for a long time and have participated in many of the Myriad Spirits Immortal Grass Conferences. You have already exchanged a lot of spiritual medicines for the Pure Glazed Body at the Immortal Grass Conferences!"

Lu Qian suddenly realized that this was the case!

I never thought that the elixir recipes I was collecting would be recognized by others, or rather, I didn't mind being recognized.

The key is that now I have met the real master, Jade Tiger Master——

"Your Excellency is the son of Jade Tiger Immortal?"

Hu Zi suddenly fell to the ground, his voice choking with sobs: "Master Qi, Master Yuhu is my father. My father entered the Prison Corpse Ridge to obtain the elixir for my body, but he never came out again. After that, my Great Red Tower was destroyed by the zombies, and I was the only one left to survive."

"Please tell me what you know and how you got the recipe for the Pure Glazed Body from my father! I will never forget your kindness. I swear to tell you the location of the corpse clan!"

It is difficult for a cultivator to have a child, and if the child has spiritual roots, it is extremely difficult.

Therefore, True Man Yuhu doted on this child with spiritual roots and made far-reaching plans for him.

The child's spiritual roots are not good, only four spiritual roots. If it were normal, I'm afraid the path would be blocked and it would be difficult to build a foundation.

Master Yuhu's greatest wish is to help his son, to improve his cultivation speed, so that he can also have a path to the Tao.

Later, as luck would have it, True Man Yuhu obtained an extremely precious recipe for the Pure Glazed Body Pill from a relic. He was overjoyed and immediately began to collect the elixirs needed for the recipe.

However, these miraculous medicines are hard to find in the world, and until the last moment, one was still missing to make up the whole collection.

True Man Yu Hu had been searching for years in vain, and he himself had survived the heavenly tribulation and reached the level of Golden Elixir. For a moment, he was filled with pride and, on impulse, he went alone into the Prison Corpse Ridge to find the remaining elixir for his son.

In the end, he did find the medicine, but he was also captured by the corpse ancestor Ying Kou, so he had to rack his brains to make him happy and save his life. In the end...

Hu Zi didn't know all this. He only knew the prescription for purifying the glassy body and that his father had been looking for medicine for him and finally disappeared in the Corpse Prison Ridge.

Although he was nominally a disciple of the Dachilou, his father was worried that he would feel inferior among the other disciples because of his spiritual roots, so he was kept outside. He thus escaped the disaster of the corpse chaos.

Later, the Dachi Tower was completely destroyed, and Hu Zi was displaced and wandering around. Fortunately, although his spiritual roots were not good, he was very talented in growing medicine and refining pills. He also had the secret skills of the Dachi Tower passed down by his father, so he did not have to worry about survival.

Moreover, after successfully building his foundation after going through all kinds of difficulties, he joined the Wanling Immortal Grass Society by chance. After that, he accidentally discovered that Lu Qian was collecting elixirs for purifying the glass body, and was very concerned about the information about the corpse clan...

After learning about the story of Jade Tiger Master, Lu Qian sighed in his heart, the love of parents is like a mountain and an ocean, they will go on a journey even if they know it will lead to their death, just for the future of their children.

He looked at Hu Zi, who was kneeling and kowtowing in front of him, and felt filled with emotion and shame.

Think about how much Jade Tiger Immortal's legacy has brought to the Yunshan Sect, and Jade Tiger Immortal's body is still in Wang Yu's hands.

The reason why I can achieve this today is because I have cultivated the pure glass body that Master Yuhu spent his life to create.

In other words, he had used up the path that originally belonged to Hu Zi!

Thinking of this, he no longer concealed it and slightly processed the matter. He said that the disciples of the sect built their foundation in the Prison Corpse Ridge. Before entering the Prison Corpse Ridge to build their foundation, he met Jade Tiger Immortal and learned his identity from others.

After entering the Corpse Prison Ridge and surviving a near-death experience to successfully build his foundation, he encountered the corpse of Jade Tiger Immortal on the way out, and obtained the prescription for the Purifying Glass Body from the corpse.

"As expected... my father was buried in the corpse-prisoning area, and died at the hands of the evil corpse clan!" Hu Zi fell to the ground and cried bitterly. Although he had expected this outcome, he had never seen his father's corpse, so he could always deceive himself that there might be other possibilities.

Lu Qian sighed, helped him up, hesitated for a moment, and said, "To be honest, your father's body and grave are now in my sect."

Hu Zi froze for a moment, his eyes widened, his body trembled violently, he forgot the difference in status, and tightly grasped Lu Qian's arm.

"Master Qi...is this true?!"

Lu Qian nodded and said, "The disciples in our sect have obtained the prescription for your father's pure glass body, and they are grateful for his legacy, so they have collected his body and are preparing to take it out and send it back to the Great Red Tower."

"We were chased by the zombie tribe on the way. It was extremely dangerous. After escaping, we didn't dare to stay and went straight back to the sect." Lu Qian looked ashamed. "There were many things to do in the sect, so we were delayed. When we remembered this, we knew that the Great Red Tower had been destroyed, so we buried your father in our sect."

Lu Qian could only whitewash it. He couldn't tell the other party that your father's body was kept by the elders of my sect, waiting to be transformed into a corpse puppet after the golden elixir was formed?

Well, since the man’s son has come to me and used his opportunity, I should accept this favor and not use his corpse anymore.

In the future, if possible, we must make more compensation to the son of Jade Tiger Immortal.

Hu Zi stared at Lu Qian blankly, feeling both sad and happy. He suddenly fell to the ground and burst into tears.

"Thank you so much, Master... Thank you so much, Master... My father doesn't have to suffer humiliation at the hands of the corpse demon..."

The more he did this, the more ashamed Lu Qian felt and he helped him up.

"Fellow Daoist, do you think we should move the body out and hand it over to you, or..."

Hu Zi wiped his tears and shook his head repeatedly: "My father has been buried in your sect. It is the will of heaven. I am just a casual cultivator, wandering around the world. Where can I take my father? I can't disturb his sleep."

Lu Qian nodded. It seemed that he had to report this matter immediately and ask Senior Brother Wang to bury the body immediately. The grave also needed to be made older.

"I am begging Master Qi to allow me to join your sect and worship my father."

Lu Qian naturally couldn't refuse, but if he did that, his true identity would be known to Hu Zi, so he could only ask him to promise to swear to keep it a secret.

After a few words of comfort, Hu Zi's mood finally stabilized. He said in a deep voice: "The hatred of killing my father and destroying my sect is irreconcilable, so I have been paying attention to the dynamics of the evildoers of the corpse clan."

Lu Qian held his breath.

"Master Qi, you don't know that I am filled with hatred, and my mood has affected my spiritual connection with man. When I was building my foundation, I gained a 'corpse-chasing' Dao pattern. Within a thousand miles, I can sense the approximate direction of the corpse clan, and the closer the distance, the more accurate it is."

"These evildoers have already headed north from Luzhou, and are now in Cangzhou!" (End of this chapter)
