Family Cultivation: Evergreen of the Song Family
Chapter 655 Treasure House
When Chu Yuming arrived, the foundation-building monks in front of the treasure had turned into cold corpses, while Song Qingxing stood in front of a heavy black iron door on the valley wall, looking around as if nothing had happened.
Looking at the corpses on the ground, Chu Yuming swallowed hard and said, "Some of these people are independent cultivators, while others are from the major forces in the four realms. Among them, there are cultivators from the Jindan forces. Daoist friend, if you kill them without any identification, I'm afraid it will cause trouble."
"Only corpses can't speak." Song Qingxing glanced at him indifferently, making the other person's scalp tingle.
Chu Yuming had no choice but to swear an oath to heaven again, vowing not to reveal a word to anyone. Only then did Song Qingxing retract his gaze and look at the black iron gate in front of him again.
He knew very well that among those he killed there were unlucky people who were implicated, but as he said, only corpses cannot speak.
Anyone whose hands are stained with the blood of the Song family must die.
But these people are elders and disciples of various major forces. If we kill some of them and leave some of them, once the news leaks, it will inevitably leave hidden dangers for the Song family.
It would be best to kill them all, thus solving the problem directly and fundamentally.
If Chu Yuming had not been sensible and still useful, he would have been dead by now.
"Can you break this barrier?" Song Qingxing looked around and found that there were several powerful barriers covering the treasure house.
It is possible to break it by force, but this will most likely cause the entire treasury to collapse, and all the treasures inside may be destroyed.
For this treasure trove, three members of the treasure hunting team died and one was seriously injured. The price was too high, and he absolutely could not accept such a situation.
After seeing how ruthless Song Qingxing was, Chu Yuming did not dare to neglect his questioning and quickly said, "Just give me some time, I can definitely break it."
Hearing this, Song Qingxing nodded slightly and said, "Thank you."
After saying that, he walked to the side, holding the sword in both hands, looking like he was watching your performance quietly.
"He won't abandon me after I've done my job, right?" Chu Yuming came to the black iron gate with trepidation. While breaking the barrier, he was also thinking about how to escape safely.
Just then, a streak of light cut through the night sky.
The man was eight feet tall, with a broad back and strong waist, a leopard head and round eyes. The short whiskers under his chin stood up like steel needles. Under his thin plain linen clothes were blocks of muscles full of explosive power. He was a cultivator in the middle stage of Purple Mansion.
"I'm sure you are Fellow Daoist Song. I am Li Hu, an elder from Luoxia City. Please don't be offended that I'm a little late." Li Hu's voice was like a loud bell, lingering in the valley for a long time.
"It doesn't matter. The murderers have all been brought to justice. No one escaped." Song Qingxing nodded in response.
"On the way here, I felt an extremely powerful sword intent. I guess it was left by fellow Daoist. You are indeed a genius swordsman that fellow Daoist Zixu praised. Even I would find it difficult to resist that sword.
When I came here, the younger generation of my fellow Daoist said that the other side had two Purple Mansion cultivators, one of whom was in the middle Purple Mansion stage. I hurried after them, but I didn't expect that my Daoist fellow was so brave and could defeat them with one force.
I wonder if you can find out who the murderer is. They can mobilize Purple Mansion cultivators and so many foundation-building cultivators, so they must not be ordinary forces. "Li Hu said in a grim tone. He is not here just to rescue the siege this time. If there is a chance, he will follow the clues and get to the bottom of it!
Song Qingxing said nothing, he just took out the identity badge from the white-robed hall master and threw it over.
"Guxian Sect? Damn it, it's quite arrogant." Li Hu curled his lips at first, then shook his head and said, "Not to mention the four realms, even the dozen or so cultivation realms around have never heard of this name.
Either it's some shady rat, or it infiltrated from somewhere else.
I can only use some means after I go back to see if I can find any clues."
Song Qingxing nodded when he heard this. He had the same idea.
At this time, Li Hu noticed that there was another person next to him, and he couldn't help but ask in confusion: "Is this the noble's new worshiper?"
He knew exactly which Purple Mansion cultivators there were in the Song family, and this old man was definitely not among them, so he was a little confused.
"No." Song Qingxing replied, then looked at Chu Yuming and said, "Explain yourself."
Chu Yuming suddenly felt as if he had been pardoned. When he knew that Li Hu was from Luoxia City, he had planned to show his presence, but because of Song Qingxing's power, he had been restraining himself from moving. Now he finally found the opportunity.
He quickly revealed his identity and said, "I am Chu Yuming, and my master is Master Feng Yuan from the Great Chu Cultivation World."
Hearing his self-introduction, a trace of contempt inadvertently flashed in Li Hu's eyes. Calling oneself "I" among fellow cultivators is an act of lowering one's status. The cultivator is either a smiling tiger with a sweet mouth and a sharp knife, or a flattering, cowardly villain.
These two types of people are what he despises the most in his life. In comparison, he still admires Song Qingxing's neither humble nor arrogant attitude when facing him.
"Ah... So you are the Taoist fellow under Master Feng Yuan. When the Lord of my city held the Golden Elixir Celebration in the past, I had also seen Master Feng Yuan from afar. I wonder why you are here. Could it be that this Guxian Sect is also related to you?" Li Hu asked casually, with an inexplicable light in his eyes.
Although he behaved rudely and looked rough, he was not a simple-minded reckless man. He had long noticed that something was not right between Chu Yuming and Song Qingxing.
In addition, Song Youfu said that the murderer was one of two Purple Mansion monks, but he only saw the corpse of one Purple Mansion monk, which made it difficult for him not to suspect Chu Yuming.
Chu Yuming was frightened when he met Li Hu's vicious gaze. He originally thought that Luoxia City would be able to communicate more easily for the sake of his master, but he didn't expect to escape from the wolf's den and fall into the tiger's mouth. He hurriedly explained the cause and effect of the matter, fearing that he would "disappear from the face of the earth."
Li Hu did not believe his one-sided statement, but cast an inquiring look at Song Qingxing.
"That's probably it. He said he could break the barrier of this treasure house." Song Qingxing didn't waste any words and directly pointed out Chu Yuming's value.
At this time, Song Youfu also followed in his flying boat.
Li Hu confirmed with him again. Although Song Youfu hated these people, he also said that Chu Yuming did not take any action against them at that time.
Chu Yuming breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this: "This can at least prove that what I said is true, right?"
"I am just asking casually. Please don't take it to heart." Li Hu responded indifferently, seeming particularly insincere.
He had always looked down on Chu Yuming, and he became even more disdainful after learning that Chu Yuming had been taken prisoner and controlled by a poisonous insect. He had lost all the integrity of a Purple Mansion cultivator and a disciple of a True Man.
If it were him, he would have committed suicide to show his determination long ago.
So he just threw him aside and started asking Song Youfu about the causes and consequences of the incident.
After Song Youfu's description, they realized that this conflict was a completely unexpected encounter.
A few days ago, the treasure hunting team came to the valley according to the map. Due to geological changes, the specific location of the treasure house had shifted. After a careful search, they finally found the valley and the treasure left by Yu Shu Zhenjun. Seeing that the barrier was still intact, they were really excited.
I failed several times before, but this time I finally got something.
Moreover, according to records, this treasure house was prepared by True Lord Yu Shu for himself to break through the Jindan stage after his reincarnation. This means that it definitely contains a large number of rare resources suitable for Purple Mansion and Jindan stage cultivators, and there may even be treasures that can assist Purple Mansion cultivators in breaking through the Jindan stage.
Such treasures are extremely important to the Song family and Luoxia City today.
Just when they were about to report this great news, this group of people came over and attacked them without saying a word.
Fortunately, the white-robed hall master respected his status and did not take action himself, which allowed them to fight desperately and break out of the siege.
"How could there be such a coincidence in the world?" Li Hu's round eyes rolled around, and then he looked at Chu Yuming beside him and asked, "How did you find this place?"
Chu Yuming answered honestly: "This was found by the Guxian Sect's Hall Master using a Gu worm called 'Xianyuan Gu'. It has been some time, but he failed to get it because of the barrier outside the treasure house.
It just so happened that I was traveling in the Great Yu Cultivation Realm during this period, and was controlled by him and brought here. I never expected to run into a disciple from your city."
"I see. How many days will it take you to break this barrier?"
"We already have some clues. We can crack it in seven days at most."
Chu Yuming tried to downplay the time as much as possible. He could see that these two were not good people and would really kill if something went wrong.
"Seven days?" Li Hu smacked his lips and said, "If this guy has accomplices, seven days is enough for them to come to support us. I'm afraid it's not safe."
Hearing this, Song Qingxing's heart was slightly moved and he said, "The clan leader of our clan can come in person."
Li Hu's eyes suddenly lit up: "It would be great if Daoist Fellow Zixu could come in person."
……
The distance was too far, and sending a message was not a good option, and it was difficult to explain the situation clearly, so Song Qingxing asked Song Youfu to take the seriously injured Song Qingdian to Qingyang Palace and take the space teleportation array to bring back the news.
It took three days for Song Changsheng to arrive.
"uncle."
"Thank you, Daoist Zixu, for taking the trip personally. This 'Guxian Sect' is really too mysterious, and we are a little unsure about it." Li Hu said with a smile and bowed.
"It's okay. How's the situation on your side?" Song Changsheng waved his hand and turned his gaze to the black iron gate that was full of traces of time.
"Everything is normal so far. As for the progress of breaking the barrier, you have to ask him." Li Hu nodded at Chu Yuming.
"This must be Master Chu, right? Your respected master, Master Feng Yuan, is a rare fourth-rank barrier master in the world. I have admired him for a long time. I never thought that I could meet his talented disciple here. This is a great honor for me." Song Changsheng bowed with a gentle smile on his face.
Little did he know that this seemingly ordinary word "Master Chu" almost made Chu Yuming burst into tears on the spot. It had been a long time since anyone had respected him like this.
Li Hu and Song Qingxing were one hot-tempered and the other ruthless. He was trembling with fear when he was with them these past few days and didn't dare to say a word. He was a little uncomfortable being respected like this all of a sudden.
Moreover, from Li Hu's respectful attitude, it can be seen that the identity of this young and somewhat excessive cultivator in front of him must be extraordinary.
He couldn't even see through the other party's cultivation level.
"I don't deserve the title of Master, but I have already broken the three outer barriers, and I only need to break the last two. Please wait for a moment, Senior."
Involuntarily, he lowered himself again.
As a disciple of Jindan Zhenren, it is rare for him to end up in such a miserable state. No wonder Li Hu looks down on him. There are reasons for it.
"Master, you are embarrassing me. It would be a good thing for us to call each other fellow Taoists." Although Chu Yuming's performance was a bit poor, Song Changsheng always respected talents. The barrier master was a relatively unpopular and rare profession, so he would naturally win him over if there was a chance. This kind of people was what the Song family lacked the most right now.
Even if you cannot recruit them, build a good relationship with them in advance so that you can speak up when the need arises.
Seeing that Song Changsheng respected him so much, Chu Yuming was moved beyond words. After being humiliated for so many days, he felt something called "dignity" for the first time.
After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Song Changsheng pointed to a certain point on the barrier and said, "I know a little bit about the art of barrier. The direction you chose seems a little inappropriate. Would it be faster if we start from here?"
This statement was half true and half false. He did have a basic understanding of the art of setting up barriers, but it was sheer nonsense to think that he could break a barrier of this level. The reason why he was able to find the flaws in the barrier was because he inherited some of Master Yu Shu's memories.
Seeing Song Changsheng questioning his professionalism, Chu Yuming was initially a little disdainful. Looking at the dozen or so cultivation circles around him, when it comes to barriers, their Fengyuan lineage is the authority.
You can question his integrity, but you can never question his attainments in the art of barrier creation.
However, Song Changsheng had left a very good impression on him before, so he patiently prepared to give him some "guidance", but the more he looked, the more he felt something was wrong.
It seems that the point pointed out by Song Changsheng is indeed a better choice?
After staring at him for a while, he finally bowed to Song Changsheng, and said with a slightly red face: "Daoyou is so talented, I am ashamed of myself."
Song Changsheng smiled and waved his hands, saying: "Master, you are too kind. I am just a half-baked person. It's just a blind cat catching a dead mouse. Master, please don't think that I am causing trouble.
It's up to the master to break the barrier."
These words made Chu Yuming even more ashamed. He thought that Song Changsheng was just being modest to save his face. He bowed again, and then, with a mixed feeling of shame and gratitude, he changed his mind and concentrated on breaking the barrier.
With Song Changsheng's "guidance" at his side, Chu Yuming's progress in breaking the barrier was much faster. It took him less than ten hours to complete the workload that would have taken at least several days.
As the black iron gate was slowly pushed open, this treasure house that had been sealed for thousands of years finally reappeared in the light of day...
