Qinghe Immortal Clan.

Spring passed and autumn came, and several months had passed since Song Qingming broke through and came out of seclusion.

On this day, a red light suddenly flew over from the top of the originally peaceful "Funiu Mountain" and landed outside the "Mountain Protection Formation".

As the escaping light dissipated, the figure of a woman in red immediately appeared, and she quickly sent a sound transmission talisman into the "Mountain Protection Formation" in front of her.

A moment later, a man in black robe flew out from the formation with a smile and landed in front of the woman in red.

"Yuan Hao meets Senior Sister Xu!"

"Junior Brother Song, I am honored to be here!"

Seeing Song Yuanhao coming out to greet her, Xu Ziyan smiled and bowed in return before continuing:
"I came here this time on the orders of my uncle-master to visit Uncle-master Song. I wonder if Uncle-master has come out of retreat now?"

Hearing Xu Ziyan's question, Song Yuanhao nodded quickly and said, "Seventh Uncle has come out of seclusion several months ago and is now on the mountain.

Please follow me to Huixian Pavilion and wait for a while. I will send someone to inform the ancestor."

After Song Yuanhao finished speaking, he extended his hand to Xu Ziyan in front of him, and the two of them quickly entered the "Mountain Protection Formation" together.

After waiting for a while in the "Huixian Pavilion" on the top of the mountain, Xu Ziyan soon saw Song Qingming walking outside, and a look of surprise appeared on her face.

"Zi Yan, meet Uncle Song!
Congratulations to Master Uncle for his advanced cultivation and great success. "

After seeing Song Qingming up close and personal just now, Xu Ziyan had clearly felt a different kind of pressure from him than before.

Less than twenty years have passed since Song Qingming advanced to the Nascent Soul stage.

This time, Xu Ziyan did not expect that Song Qingming had successfully broken through to the second level of Nascent Soul. She suddenly felt a strong shock in her heart!

You should know that it is extremely difficult for a cultivator to break through each level when he reaches the Nascent Soul stage. Generally, a Nascent Soul cultivator has to practice for at least dozens or even hundreds of years before he can break through a level.

Even Bai Yuxian, a genius with natural spiritual roots, could not advance to the second level of Nascent Soul in just over ten years. Song Qingming's incredible cultivation speed really shocked Xu Ziyan.

After she understood what was going on, she hurriedly bowed and congratulated Song Qingming in person, her tone already full of respect for Song Qingming.

Seeing this, Song Qingming smiled and waved his hand, saying softly:

"No need to be polite! Please sit down first."

After greeting Xu Ziyan with a smile, Song Yuanhao, who was standing by, immediately asked the Song family cultivator nearby to bring over a few cups of spiritual tea.

Then, following Song Qingming's eye hint, he took the initiative to leave the "Huixian Pavilion" with the others.

When they were the only two left around, Song Qingming put down the teacup in his hand and took the initiative to ask Xu Ziyan:

"Zi Yan came to my house today on her own initiative, could she be here just to visit me?

Is there something going on with the sect? There's no one here right now, so just tell me if you have anything to say!"

Ever since Song Qingming advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, any happenings in the sect were basically reported to him directly through messages.

Even if Jindan elders like Xu Ziyan came to "Funiu Mountain" for something, they would basically discuss it with Song Yuanhao and others, and would not easily disturb Song Qingming who was practicing in seclusion on the mountain.

Seeing Xu Ziyan came to visit him specially, Song Qingming immediately guessed that there might be something going on in the sect, so he asked directly in person.

Hearing what Song Qingming said, Xu Ziyan nodded quickly, then took out a letter from her body and handed it to Song Qingming.

"Uncle Master, please forgive me! Zi Yan came here on behalf of Uncle Master Li.

This is a serious matter, and Uncle Master was afraid that something might happen on the way to deliver the message, so he asked me to come and ask Uncle Master to go to Guyang Mountain to discuss the matter."

"Oh! It was Senior Brother Li who asked me to come over to discuss something. Didn't he tell you what it was about?"

Song Qingming took the letter from Xu Ziyan, opened it and took a look. A look of doubt appeared on his face again, and he asked again.

Hearing this, Xu Ziyan shook her head slightly and replied helplessly:
"Well, Master did not tell me before I left. I only know that the matter is urgent but I am not aware of the details. I hope Master will not blame me!"

"Yeah! No problem.

Wait a minute, I'll go with you and you'll know."

Seeing that Xu Ziyan was not clear about the purpose of Li Mufeng suddenly wanting to discuss something with her, Song Qingming did not ask any more questions, but smiled and nodded slightly.

Afterwards, Song Qingming sent a message to call Song Yuanhao, who was guarding outside, in. After giving him a few instructions, he left the "Huixian Pavilion" with Xu Ziyan.

Not long after, two beams of light passed through the "Funiu Mountain" mountain protection formation and headed southwest, quickly disappearing in the air.
-
In a cave on the top of "Guyang Mountain".

A man in a gray robe was sitting on a golden cushion in the cave, meditating with his eyes closed to absorb the spiritual energy from the surroundings.

Suddenly, the gray-robed man opened his eyes on his own initiative and stood up from the mat.

After tidying up his appearance slightly, the man in gray robe turned quickly and walked to the entrance of the cave, removed the restriction at the door, and then strode out.

"Greetings to Senior Brother Li and Senior Uncle Li."

Seeing Song Qingming and Xu Ziyan standing outside and saluting, Li Mufeng smiled slightly. Just as he was about to bow to Song Qingming in return, he suddenly stopped what he was doing.

"Junior Brother Song, have you already broken through to the second level of the Nascent Soul?"

Seeing that Li Mufeng was also surprised when he saw him, Song Qingming immediately smiled and nodded to him.

“Speaking of which, this is all thanks to the elixir that Daoist Fellow Zhao gave me last time. This elixir really benefited me a lot.

After I went into seclusion to refine the Purple Cloud Pill, I felt that my cultivation had suddenly improved a lot, so I took the opportunity to try to break through the bottleneck in my body.

Unexpectedly, this time the impact on the bottleneck was very smooth, and I was lucky enough to break through the realm. "

“Haha! I didn’t expect that Junior Brother could successfully break through the second level of Nascent Soul with just one Purple Cloud Pill. This really makes me a little envious.”

He learned from Song Qingming that the reason for his breakthrough was because of the "Purple Cloud Pill" that Zhao Wuling gave him during the last "Nascent Soul Celebration".

Li Mufeng was silent for a moment, but soon reacted, smiled and nodded at him, and took the initiative to bow and congratulate him.

Seeing this, Song Qingming hurriedly bowed in return.

After the two exchanged a few polite words, Li Mufeng's expression changed slightly. He turned around and said to Xu Ziyan, "

"Zi Yan, Junior Brother Song and I will have something to talk about later, please wait outside.

Remember, no one is allowed to interrupt us while we are talking!"

"Uncle Master, rest assured. Zi Yan will follow your orders!"

Hearing Li Mufeng's serious and careful instructions, Xu Ziyan hurriedly nodded to the two Nascent Soul Grand Elders of the sect beside him, and then watched Li Mufeng and the other two walk into the cave.

After the two left, Xu Ziyan's eyes moved slightly, and she cast a spell to release several golden spirit birds, commanding them to guard the surroundings.

Only then did he sit down with peace of mind and guard the front of the cave.

After entering the cave, Song Qingming saw that Li Mufeng had a serious look on his face, and he was very careful to set up several restrictions at the door before asking him to sit down. He couldn't help but have a bad premonition in his heart.

This is the first time in all these years that I have seen such a serious look on Senior Brother Li Mufeng’s face since I formed my infant.

It was obvious that something big must have happened in the sect to make the Nascent Soul Grand Elder, who had been in charge of the sect for hundreds of years, look so nervous today.

However, Song Qingming didn’t know whether this matter was a good or bad thing, so he didn’t say much. He could only sit aside and wait for Li Mufeng’s next words.

As Song Qingming thought, not long after the two of them sat down, Li Mufeng couldn't help but speak directly to him:
"Junior Brother Song! I specifically called you to Guyang Mountain because there is something important that concerns the survival of the sect. I want to entrust it to you. I hope you can help me shoulder this burden temporarily."

"I don't know what happened, please tell me frankly, brother!"

Li Mufeng nodded slightly, then took out a letter he had received not long ago and carefully handed it to Song Qingming.

"This is the letter our sect just received yesterday from the Wanling Sect. Junior Sister Bai and the others had an accident in the Huanhai Desert."

"What? Senior Sister Bai is in trouble."

Hearing what Li Mufeng said, Song Qingming felt nervous and quickly opened the letter from "Wanling Sect" in his hand and looked through it carefully. Finally, he gradually understood what happened in Qin State.

Half a year ago, Bai Yuxian was invited to the State of Qin to cooperate with the cultivators of the "Wanling Sect" to eliminate the evil cultivators of the "Xueling Sect" hiding in a small country nearby.

Because the "Wanling Sect" had made very thorough preparations in advance, this matter went very smoothly at the beginning.

Soon, Bai Yuxian and others, under the personal leadership of the cultivators from the "Wanling Sect", blocked the "Blood Demon Ancestor" and other demon cultivators in a cave.

Unfortunately, they did not anticipate that the "Blood Demon Ancestor" had a Nascent Soul stage substitute called the "Blood Corpse Puppet", which was deceived by his real body and escaped.

Later, Bai Yuxian and others discovered what was happening and tracked the injured "Blood Demon Ancestor" all the way into the "Fantasy Sea Desert" in the west.

They want to completely eradicate this great demon who has been plaguing the immortal world of the "Floating Cloud Mountains" for thousands of years.

What no one expected was that after Bai Yuxian, the Yuanying elder Wang Yan of the Wanling Sect, and the Yuanying elder Han Yu of the Huoyang Sect tracked each other into the "Fantasy Sea Desert", the three of them suddenly disappeared and never came back.

Later, Zhao Wuling, the great elder of the "Wanling Sect", led people into the "Fantasy Sea Desert" to search, but still could not find any trace of the three of them.

Then he sent a message to inform the "Xiaoyao Sect" of the matter, wanting them to help organize people to enter the "Fantasy Sea Desert" to rescue the trapped Bai Yuxian and others.

After Li Mufeng received the news, he was also worried.

Fortunately, Bai Yuxian and the other two are all Nascent Soul cultivators, and there are soul lamps left in their sect. Even though we are thousands of miles away, we can still tell that they are safe.

After understanding the situation, Li Mufeng hurriedly invited Song Qingming from "Funiu Mountain" to discuss how to go to the "Fantasy Sea Desert" to rescue Bai Yuxian.

“Junior Brother Song, Junior Sister Bai is now trapped in the Fantasy Sea Desert, and she doesn’t know whether it will be a blessing or a curse!
I have to go to Qin State as soon as possible and rescue Junior Sister Bai together with Wanling Sect and others.

During the time that Senior Brother is away, I'll trouble Junior Brother Song to stay in Guyang Mountain for a while to prevent the demons from taking the opportunity to attack!" After Li Mufeng finished speaking, another white jade token appeared in his hand and he sent it to Song Qingming.

Seeing that Li Mufeng wanted to go to Qin State in person to rescue the trapped Bai Yuxian, Song Qingming thought for a moment, but still did not take the white jade token in his hand and shook his head slightly.

"Brother Li, right now, the monsters around Wei State are eyeing us covetously. If you leave suddenly, the sect will inevitably be in turmoil. I'm afraid the monsters will soon notice something unusual.

Originally, Senior Sister Bai went there on my behalf.

Now that she's in trouble, it's only right that I go save her, so why not let me go to Qin?"

When Song Qingming learned that Bai Yuxian had gone to Qin State on his behalf, he had always been worried about her.

Song Qingming suddenly realized that she was trapped in the "Fantasy Desert" by the evil cultivator, and his face showed a bit of shame.

Without much hesitation, Song Qingming immediately expressed his inner thoughts and wanted to go to Qin State to rescue Bai Yuxian.

When Li Mufeng heard that Song Qingming was going to Qin to rescue Bai Yuxian on his behalf, a look of surprise appeared on his face, and then he quickly revealed a smile of relief.

"this..

It's not that I don't trust you, but I'm afraid that this trip to Qin State might be a little dangerous. I'm still a little worried if you go there rashly.

Junior brother, you should just stay in the sect. With you here, I can feel more at ease outside."

"Senior Brother Li! I have dealt with the Blood Spirit Sect several times before, and I have some understanding of their magical powers.

If I go, I should be able to provide some help in rescuing Senior Sister Bai and the others.

Don't worry, my cultivation has now reached the second level of the Nascent Soul. Although I am not as good as the cultivators in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, I still have the ability to protect myself against them.

Senior brother hasn’t fully recovered from his injuries in his last battle with the Black Dragon Demon King. If he fights the enemy now and wastes his energy, it would be a waste of time.

It would be better if you stay and take charge!"

Seeing that Song Qingming still insisted on going in his place, Li Mufeng's face gradually fell silent and he did not directly refuse.

In the previous battle with the "Black Dragon Demon King", Li Mufeng's spiritual consciousness was injured by the mysterious magic weapon on his body.

Afterwards, although he had recovered a lot from the years of seclusion and recuperation, he had not yet fully recovered.

Moreover, Song Qingming had dealt with many cultivators from the "Blood Spirit Sect" before, and had some understanding of the magical powers of these demonic cultivators.

From these two aspects, Song Qingming is indeed more suitable to rescue Bai Yuxian than Li Mufeng at present.

After hesitating for a long time, Li Mufeng finally nodded to Song Qingming calmly, agreeing to the idea of ​​letting him go to Qin to help rescue Bai Yuxian.

Then Li Mufeng took out another magic weapon from his body and gave it to Song Qingming.

"Junior Brother Song, since you are going to Qin State, the journey is long and dangerous, so you should take this magic weapon with you!
Once Junior Sister Bai has any news, please send it back to me immediately and be careful!"

Seeing Li Mufeng take out a fourth-grade low-grade defensive magic weapon, Song Qingming's face showed a little surprise, but he quickly took it.

"Thank you, Brother Li!

Please rest assured, Senior Brother, as long as Senior Sister Bai has any news, I will inform the sect immediately."

After solemnly paying his respects to Li Mufeng, Song Qingming did not stay long. He quickly stood up, said goodbye and left.

Looking at Song Qingming's back as he left on his own initiative, Li Mufeng couldn't help but sigh slightly, but the next moment, the tense expression on his face quickly recovered.

After leaving "Guyang Mountain", Song Qingming immediately returned to his family.

After that, he talked to Huang Siyuan and Song Yuanhao, packed up and set off for the State of Qin.

The Qin State, where the "Wanling Sect" is located, is located to the west of the "Floating Cloud Mountain Range" cultivation world, tens of thousands of miles away from the Wei State.

With Song Qingming's speed as a Nascent Soul cultivator, it still took him six full days of travel at full speed before he arrived at the territory of the "Wanling Sect" of the Qin State.

When Song Qingming had not yet broken through the Nascent Soul stage, he had passed by the Qin State many times in order to go to the "Donghuang State" in the west of the continent.

However, due to the fact that the relationship between the "Wanling Sect" and the "Xiaoyao Sect" has always been rather ordinary, Song Qingming has never dared to set foot in the Qin territory in these years.

It was not until this time that Song Qingming came to the Qin State for the first time in order to rescue his trapped senior sister Bai Yuxian. He also saw the territory of the "Floating Cloud Mountains" which is governed by the first sect in the world of immortal cultivation.

Although the area of ​​Qin State is much larger than that of Wei State where the "Xiaoyao Sect" is located, the environment and environment of Qin State seem to be not much different from those of Wei State.

The only difference between the Wei State and the many mountains and hills is that the terrain in the Qin State is relatively flat, which seems to be more suitable for mortals to farm and live.

After entering the Qin territory, Song Qingming headed northwest and soon came to a towering mountain that reached the sky.

After taking a quick glance at the tall sacred mountain in front of him, Song Qingming cast a spell and released a sound transmission note, sending it into the "mountain protection formation" in front.

Not long after, a woman in yellow took the initiative to walk out of the formation, came to Song Qingming, shook his hand and bowed.

"My name is Chu Lingyun. Nice to meet you, Daoist Song. Welcome to Wanxiu Mountain."

"Fellow Daoist Chu is so polite!"

After returning the greeting, seeing Chu Lingyun suddenly staring at him with a strange look, Song Qingming hurriedly pretended to look at him and said to him with a puzzled look:

"Fellow Daoist Chu, is there anything wrong with me?"

"Oh! I am sorry for being rude. Brother Song will come in with me, right?"

Hearing Song Qingming's question, Chu Lingyun was slightly stunned, then immediately came to his senses, stretched out his hand and invited Song Qingming into the "Mountain Protection Formation".

Soon, the two of them came to a hall on the top of Wanxiu Mountain.

Not long after he sat down, Song Qingming saw two figures walking in from outside the hall in the distance. The one walking in front was Zhao Wuling, the great elder of the "Wanling Sect" whom he had met before.

Seeing this, Song Qingming hurriedly stood up and took the initiative to step forward and greet Zhao Wuling.

Seeing the changes in Song Qingming's cultivation in front of him, Zhao Wuling was slightly stunned, and then he smiled and introduced the other person next to him to Song Qingming.

"Fellow Daoist Song, this is Fellow Daoist Fu, the great elder of Huoyang Sect. I specially invited him to help."

"I am Song Qingming from the Xiaoyao Sect. I am honored to meet you, fellow Daoist."

Hearing Zhao Wu's introduction, Song Qingming quickly turned around and bowed to a tall and strong man next to him.

Hearing this, the Huoyang Sect's great elder Fu Yungui also bowed to Song Qingming, and there was a hint of strangeness in his eyes as he looked at him.

"I have heard of Fellow Daoist Song for a long time. It is rare to see him today. Fellow Daoist is indeed a talented person."

"You are too kind, Mr. Daoist Fu!"

Hearing the other party's praise, which was obviously directed at his own cultivation, Song Qingming just smiled and said something modestly without saying anything more.

After the two sides met and greeted each other, Zhao Wuling immediately arranged for a few people to sit down and began to chat about business with Song Qingming.

Previously, because Zhao Wuling had to stay in Qin to guard against the northern demon tribe, he did not go personally to encircle and suppress the "Blood Demon Ancestor", and only sent an incarnation to participate in the battle.

More than a month ago, after tracking the other party into the "Fantasy Sea Desert", Zhao Wuling's incarnation was entangled by another strange Nascent Soul demon cultivator who suddenly appeared, so he and Bai Yuxian and the other two separated.

When Zhao Wuling's incarnation got rid of the target and wanted to go back to reunite with Bai Yuxian and the other two, he suddenly found that he could not find any trace of them.

Seeing this, Zhao Wuling could only search around, but still found nothing.

In the end, he had no choice but to return to Qin to send a message for help.

"Fellow Daoist Song, the place where Junior Brother Wang and Fellow Daoist Bai disappeared that day is near the center of the Fantasy Sea Desert.

That place is mostly where high-level demon cultivators gather and hide, and I'm afraid there are far more demons than just the Blood Demon Ancestor.

I was alone at the time, and there was really no other solution, so I had to retreat."

After hearing Zhao Wuling's explanation, Song Qingming was not too surprised. He nodded slightly and said:

"In that case, when are you going to set off?"

Seeing that Song Qingming was a little anxious, Zhao Wuling quickly waved his hand and said, “It is not an easy task for us to enter the Fantasy Sea Desert to look for people.

There are still two Daoists who haven't arrived yet, Daoist Song, don't worry, wait a few more days and then we can set out together!"

"Oh! That's fine."

Upon hearing that Zhao Wuling had also invited two Nascent Soul cultivators to come, Song Qingming nodded slowly without saying much.

Two days passed quickly and two more Nascent Soul cultivators appeared in "Wanxiu Mountain".

When Song Qingming saw one of them, he was not surprised at all.

It was Wu Jiuyuan, the Nascent Soul ancestor of the Jiuyuan Sect of Yue State whom he had met before.

As a half-vassal sect of the "Wanling Sect", Wu Jiuyuan appeared here to help, naturally because of the call from the "Wanling Sect".

But the last person to arrive surprised Song Qingming. He was Zheng Zitong, the supreme elder of the "Xingchen Sect" who was most incompatible with the monks of the "Wanling Sect".

(First of all, I wish all my fellow Taoists a happy Lantern Festival! Recently, Xiao Meng went to Nanjing and caught a cold when she came back, so the update is a little late.
