Qinghe Immortal Clan.

Although Song Qingming has obtained many Nascent Soul opportunities in recent years, he does have some confidence in his heart to reach the Nascent Soul realm.

But these could only give him some confidence. Song Qingming still did not have enough confidence whether he could really cross the huge threshold of the Nascent Soul stage.

Seeing Song Qingming's respectful look, Xia Mo smiled slightly, turned around and slowly withdrew her gaze.

"You said in your letter before that you wanted to see me, but is there anything I can help you with?"

Xia Mo was a smart person. Although Song Qingming did not say it clearly in the letter, after they met, she quickly saw the other party's purpose of coming to see her and directly stated it.

Seeing this, Song Qingming nodded slightly and immediately said:
“What you said is true, senior. A good friend of mine accidentally injured his lungs. This time, I came to your sect to ask for a white glass fruit to heal his wound.

I intend to exchange these spiritual objects for spiritual fruits. I hope Senior Xia can come forward to help me. I will be very grateful!"

After Song Qingming bowed, he immediately took out three top-grade spirit stones from his body and presented them to Xia Mo with a respectful look on his face.

"Baili Fruit" is a third-grade medium-quality spiritual fruit, and its market value is generally more than 20,000 spiritual stones. Song Qingming directly took out three high-quality spiritual stones, which was already a premium purchase for this item.

However, if he asked someone to help, he certainly couldn't let Xia Mo work in vain. Song Qingming had been in the world of immortal cultivation for many years, so he was naturally very clear about the proper etiquette.

Seeing the several high-quality spirit stones handed over by Song Qingming, Xia Mo did not take them directly but waved her hand and sent them back.

Seeing this, a hint of surprise suddenly appeared on Song Qingming's face. When he was about to ask, Xia Mo's voice had already come first.

"Fellow Daoist Song, although the White Glass Fruit is rare, it does not require so many spirit stones. I think you should take these back first!
No matter what, you helped me before. Since you came to my door and asked for help today, I should give you some face.

Take my jade token and ask Meng Xin to take you to the Golden Palace, and then just give them the required amount of spiritual stones."

After saying that, Xia Mo's hand suddenly flashed with spiritual light and a white jade token appeared. She then sent it in front of Song Qingming.

When he first saw Xia Mo refused to accept his spirit stones, Song Qingming thought that she looked down upon such a small thing and that this matter might be difficult to accomplish, and he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

Unexpectedly, the situation took a sudden turn. Not only did the other party agree to help, but he also didn't want to accept the spirit stones. Song Qingming was very surprised for a while.

After realizing what was happening, Song Qingming quickly took the white jade token from Xia Mo, bowed and thanked her:
"Thank you for your help, Senior Xia!

It’s just that the senior is willing to help, which is already a great honor for me. I really don’t want to let the senior work in vain. I hope the senior will accept this little gift and don’t be polite to me. "

After seeing Song Qingming put away the jade token, he took out a top-grade spirit stone and handed it to her. However, Xia Mo still shook her head.

"Fellow Daoist Song, don't be so polite. Spiritual stones are not something I lack. You should just put them away first!"

Seeing that Xia Mo still didn't want to accept his spirit stone, Song Qingming didn't say anything more. He put away the spirit stone in his hand, smiled and bowed to her, saying:
"In this case, I will not force you to do anything but accept this great favor. If you have any instructions in the future, please let me know. I will do my best to serve you."

"This is just a piece of cake for me, so you don't have to worry about it. When you break through to the Nascent Soul stage in the future, I might need your help in something.

I hope that by then, you will not forget what happened today and will help me!"

Hearing this, Song Qingming hurriedly laughed bitterly and said, "Well, Senior Xia, what you said is really a bit disrespectful to me.

The talents of the younger generation are far inferior to those of the older generation, so how dare we compare ourselves with them?

The path to the Nascent Soul is so difficult. Although I have not yet touched upon it, I have already experienced it. After practicing for so many years, I still have this self-awareness. "

“The level of one’s cultivation aptitude does affect the speed of cultivation, but when it comes to the stage of forming an infant, one cannot just rely on talent to get through.

If you don't believe me, how about making a bet with me today?

If you can achieve Nascent Soul within a hundred years, please promise to do two things for me within your ability in the future.

If I was wrong this time.

"A hundred years later, come to Baihua Palace to find me again, and I will reward you with a spiritual item for forming a baby. What do you think?"

"A spiritual object to form a baby!"

Hearing what Xia Mo said, Song Qingming was stunned. For a moment, he couldn't believe that the other party would take the initiative to propose such a bet.

You know, for a cultivator to cultivate to the ninth level of Golden Core, although it is not an easy thing in the world of immortal cultivation, there are still many people who can do it as long as there are some opportunities.

But taking one step forward from the ninth level of the Golden Core is not something that an ordinary Golden Core cultivator can do.

Compared with Jindan cultivators, those who can achieve Yuanying Dao are extremely rare.

Even for a cultivator with natural spiritual roots like Bai Yuxian, no one dared to say that she would be 100% successful when she was forming her infant, let alone Song Qingming, whose spiritual roots were even more ordinary.

After practicing to the ninth level of the Golden Core for so many years, Song Qingming had heard mostly polite words. He had never seen anyone like Xia Mo, who was so sure that he would be able to successfully form a baby in the future.

Seeing that Song Qingming seemed a little unconvinced, Xia Mo immediately smiled seriously and said:
"Fellow Daoist, do you not dare to make this bet with me, or do you not believe what I just said? How about we sign a contract now?"

Hearing this, Song Qingming quickly recovered from his surprise and nodded to Xia Mo:
"Since Senior Xia trusts me so much, I naturally dare not let you down. I accept this bet!"

The bet that Xia Mo proposed to him seemed to have no disadvantages for Song Qingming no matter what the outcome was. There was really no reason for him to refuse.

If he won the bet, he would be able to obtain a very precious spiritual object for forming a baby from Xia Mo. For Song Qingming, it would be a great opportunity with no investment and huge profits.

Even if you lose the bet, all you need to do is help the other party do two things within your ability.

If it is true as Xia Mo said, and I can successfully break through to the Nascent Soul stage in the future, then losing this bet doesn't seem to matter much.

Although he didn't know why Xia Mo was so confident in him, Song Qingming seemed to be able to accept the bet proposed by the other party regardless of whether he won or lost.

Seeing Song Qingming bow and agree immediately, Xia Mo smiled slightly, waved her hand, took out a somewhat rustic white animal skin, wrote the bet on it, and then dripped a drop of her own blood on it.

"Fellow Daoist Song, take a look at this bet. If there is no problem, just print a drop of blood on it.

If after a hundred years, you still cannot form a Nascent Soul, then you only need to bring this item to my Baihua Palace, and I will give you an explanation."

After taking a look at the "bet" that Xia Mo put in front of him, Song Qingming did not hesitate too much and directly dripped a trace of blood on it.

Not long after, Xia Mo divided the "bet" into two and threw one half directly to Song Qingming.

"Senior Xia, if you don't have any instructions, then I will take my leave first."

After putting away the "bet" in his hand, Song Qingming saw that he had done everything, so he bowed and said goodbye.

Xia Mo waved her hand gently upon hearing this, and soon Song Qingming turned around and left.

After Song Qingming's figure disappeared, Xia Mo turned her gaze to the half of the "bet" in her hand. After a while, she smiled slightly and put it away.

"I've won so many times, I shouldn't lose!"
-
After getting the white jade token from Xia Mo, Song Qingming followed He Mengxin to the gold storage hall of "Baihua Palace".

With the token given by Xia Mo, the sect's Nascent Soul ancestor, the elder of the Baihua Palace who was in charge of the "Gold Storage Hall" did not make things too difficult. The two of them spent two high-quality spirit stones and quickly exchanged them for the required "Baili Fruit" from the Gold Storage Hall.

"Fellow Daoist Song, I never thought this would go so smoothly.

If I had known in advance that you could convince Uncle Xia to help, I should have reminded you earlier. You almost missed the big opportunity.

I don't know what you used to impress Master Xia, can you tell me about it?"

After walking out of the "Gold Hall", He Mengxin, who had always been curious about how Song Qingming persuaded Xia Mo to help, couldn't help but ask.

Hearing this, Song Qingming, who knew what the other party was thinking, smiled softly and then replied, "Daoyou He, you misunderstood!
To be honest, when I asked you to go and help pass the message, I was not very confident.

It's just that I'm lucky this time. Senior Xia didn't forget that I was willing to meet him and help him. Otherwise, we don't know when we can find this thing."

Hearing Song Qingming's answer, He Mengxin's eyes moved slightly, she smiled and nodded, "Oh! So that's how it is, I misunderstood.

After Uncle Master Xia formed her infant form, she has been practicing diligently, which is rarely seen by ordinary people. I was a little surprised that she summoned Fellow Daoist Song this time. I thought that Fellow Daoist had brought some treasure this time.

In this case, then just pretend I didn’t ask, and don’t bring it up again in the future.”

Seeing that there was still a hint of doubt in He Mengxin's eyes, as if she didn't believe what he said, Song Qingming felt a little helpless.

The reason why he was able to get Xia Mo's exceptional help was actually because of the "Yunwu Mountain" incident that year.

However, He Mengxin didn't know the reason, and Song Qingming had no way to tell her directly, which made her confused for a moment and mistakenly thought that Song Qingming had given some treasure to Xia Mo.

However, these things are not important at the moment. Song Qingming did not explain too much to He Mengxin and returned to the cave with the spiritual fruit.

Upon learning that Song Qingming had really obtained the "Bai Li Fruit", Li Xuanyi and Song Qingyu were also very happy.

After obtaining the spiritual fruit, Li Xuanyi quickly began to retreat and heal his injuries in his own cave.

With the help of the "Baili Fruit", it took Li Xuanyi more than a month to successfully refine the spiritual fruit, and his injuries were immediately healed.

When Li Xuanyi came out of retreat, her complexion had obviously improved compared to before. Although she had not fully recovered, her injuries had almost healed by 70% to 80%, and there would be no major hidden dangers.

Even when fighting with others, he could still exert 80% to 90% of his original strength, which made Song Qingming and others feel much more at ease.

In order to celebrate the recovery of his senior sister Li Xuanyi, Song Qingming specially called his good friend He Mengxin, and they went to the market to buy a banquet to celebrate for Li Xuanyi.

During the banquet, after three rounds of drinks, Song Qingyu suddenly asked He Mengxin and Song Qingming:
"Sister He, Brother Qi, my injuries have basically recovered, and Senior Sister Xuanyi is also fine now.

Should we rush over there right away to avoid any more trouble?"

Hearing what Song Qingyu said, He Mengxin immediately understood that the place she was talking about was the "ancient ruins". She had already been looking forward to it, so she nodded and said:

"I don't have much to do in the sect recently, so I can leave at any time. Anyway, we just need to follow what we agreed in advance."

"That's no problem, don't worry, Sister He."

After Song Qingyu responded, his gaze immediately turned to Song Qingming. He Mengxin and Li Xuanyi on the side also looked at him with some anticipation.

Seeing this, Song Qingming smiled and nodded, agreeing to Song Qingyu's proposal.

Now Song Qingyu's injuries have basically recovered, and senior sister Li Xuanyi has also recovered 80% to 90%, so the fight will not be greatly affected.

After being out for so long, Song Qingming was a little worried about his home. The sooner things here could be settled, the sooner he could go back home with peace of mind.

Seeing that everyone agreed, Song Qingyu's face suddenly showed joy and he raised the wine glass in his hand.

"Since everyone has no problems, we'll set off in two days. The sooner we go, the sooner we'll be back!"

Seeing this, Song Qingming and others immediately raised their glasses together.

Two days later, a beam of white light left from the southeast of "Wanhu Island" and soon disappeared into the sky.
-
Time flies, and more than a month has passed quickly.

On this day, in an area in the open sea, a small treasure ship more than ten meters long was sailing in the sea. It was surrounded by a vast expanse of deep blue sea, and there was no trace of land or islands.

Above the sail of the treasure ship, a boatman in the Qi Refining Stage with low cultivation level was standing on a high place, looking around into the distance.

Not long after, a vague black line suddenly flashed in the boatman's eyes, and then gradually became clear.

Seeing the dark shadow growing bigger and bigger in front of him, the boatman hurriedly shouted to the people on the deck below:

"Brother, we found an island about thirty miles ahead. We should have reached Luoxiayuan!"

Hearing what the person on the lookout above said, a hint of joy suddenly appeared on the faces of the people below, and then slowly turned into a look of relief.

"We are finally here. Old Seven, please go and inform the seniors!"

"Okay! Don't worry, bro. I'll be there right away."

A man with somewhat dark skin, after hearing the instructions from the leading foundation-building cultivator, hurriedly put down the things in his hands and walked quickly to the cabin.

Just as the man raised his hand to knock on the door, the cabin next to him suddenly opened and a man in blue walked out.

"Senior, Luoxiayuan has arrived!"

After hearing the report from the person in front of him, the man in green nodded slightly, then a light flashed in his hand and he took out a small bag of spirit stones and threw it into the other person's hand.

"Thank you for your hard work these past few days, share these spirit stones!
After we reach the shore, you can find a safe place by yourselves. If there is no news after half a month, you can leave on your own and don't need to worry about us anymore."

"Don't worry, senior. I'll do as you say."

Seeing the bag of spirit stones in his hand, the man's face suddenly lit up with joy. He hurriedly bowed to express his gratitude, then happily left the cabin with the spirit stones.

After the other party left, Song Qingming turned around and sent a message to several cabins nearby. Soon, Song Qingyu and others who were practicing in seclusion came out one after another.

"Seventh Brother! Have we reached Luoxiayuan yet?"

Song Qingming nodded slightly upon hearing this, and then said, "I have already told them, let's set off first!"

After greeting everyone, Song Qingming was the first to walk out of the cabin, and then waved his hand to release the "Phantom Boat".

After everyone got on the flying boat, the "Phantom Boat" quickly turned into a white light and flew away. Soon, a green island dozens of miles wide appeared in front of everyone.

"That's right, it's here, Seventh Brother. The ancient ruins are deep in Luoxia Abyss. It's about five or six thousand miles away."

Seeing the brightly colored island in front of him, a look of familiarity suddenly appeared in Song Qingyu's eyes, and he quickly raised his hand to point the direction to Song Qingming who was controlling the flying boat in front.

The "ancient ruins" discovered by Song Qingyu and Li Xuanyi are located in a place called "Luoxiayuan" in the open sea.

This place was originally the site of an ancient battlefield. Because the earth veins were interrupted by a powerful monk, the surrounding spiritual energy was very chaotic, and it gradually became a desolate land where monks and monsters were rarely seen.

It was not until several thousand years ago that rumors suddenly emerged in "Luoxiayuan" that some cultivators had found the relics passed down by ancient cultivators. This gradually attracted some cultivators who were looking for opportunities to come and hunt for treasures. For a time, the entire abyss was extremely lively.

However, after arriving at "Luoxiayuan", these people basically returned empty-handed, and the place gradually became desolate.

In recent years, apart from some people who want to search for the unique spiritual objects in this place, there are very few monks who come here specifically to hunt for treasures.

The flying boat moved forward for more than half an hour, but Song Qingming and others still did not encounter any traces of other cultivators.

After passing a small island several miles wide, the originally calm sea in front suddenly became turbulent.

Song Qingming, who was controlling the flying boat at the time, also clearly felt that the spiritual energy of the surrounding heaven and earth became a little chaotic. Even the flying boat began to shake violently and its speed dropped a lot.

Seeing this, Song Qingming immediately increased his magic power and poured it into the flying boat under his feet, quickly stabilizing the direction of the flying boat.

This immediately restored the speed of the "Phantom Boat". Only after passing through this harsh sea area did Song Qingming feel that the surrounding spiritual energy was slowly returning to normal.

The place where the spiritual energy fluctuations were very chaotic just now was also the unique "Maze Sea" formed by the interruption of the "Luoxiayuan" ground vein.

Once low-level monks or ships are caught in this "sea of ​​confusion", it is easy for them to lose their way and become trapped inside. Some people may not be able to get out for several months.

However, this threat is not that great for Jindan cultivators like Song Qingming. They only need to increase their magic power to control the flying boat and they can quickly pass through these "confusing seas".

Half a day later, the white light passed through an area of ​​sea and landed directly on a huge reef above the abyss.

This place is located deep in the "Luoxiayuan" abyss.

When the sea water reached here, there was suddenly a drop of several thousand feet, like a very tall circular waterfall falling directly into the abyss in front of everyone.

The depths of the abyss are pitch black and you can't see the bottom at all, just like a huge bottomless hole.

"Seventh Brother! The ancient ruins are beneath this abyss.

There are no monsters down there, but that place seems to be connected to the land of ghosts. The yin energy around it is very strong, and there are many powerful ghost cultivators. Everyone should be careful."

After saying that, Song Qingyu took the lead and transformed into a beam of light, flew up directly, and then quickly fell into the depths of the sea.

Upon seeing this, Song Qingming and others immediately turned into a beam of light and followed. Soon all four of them fell into the bottomless abyss.

As the depth got lower and lower, the light around them gradually dimmed, and soon the few people could not see the environment around their bodies. They could only hear the sound of sea water pouring.

Not long after, Song Qingming's magic power moved and a white light flashed, illuminating his surroundings, allowing Song Qingming to see clearly the dark environment around him.

Immediately afterwards, Song Qingyu, Li Xuanyi and He Mengxin each took out a magical tool for lighting, adding four rays of light to the pitch-black abyss.

After falling thousands of feet, there were sudden earth-shaking roars from below, and Song Qingming could not help but release a light shield to block out the sounds from the outside world.

A moment later, the four of them fell into a splash of white water.

After stabilizing his body in the sea, Song Qingming quickly received a voice transmission and immediately moved towards the direction where the voice came from.

After several people met in the water, they followed Song Qingyu and continued to move forward. They walked about a few hundred miles and came to a deserted ruin on the seabed.

The area is surrounded by stone houses and a number of tall palaces.

But they have all become ruins with the passage of time, and our entire appearance cannot be seen clearly. We can only guess their original grandeur through some incomplete relics.

After arriving here, Song Qingming clearly felt that the spiritual energy around him suddenly became very cool, and he immediately realized that this was the "ancient ruins" that Song Qingyu had mentioned before.

Before they could move forward, a dozen strange green flames suddenly appeared among the rocks of the ruins in the distance.

Before Song Qingming could see clearly what it was, the green flames moved again and quickly approached where the few people were.

Seeing this scene, Song Qingming and his companions, knowing that the visitor had bad intentions, also frowned slightly. (End of this chapter)
