Keqing, it’s just cultivating immortality, is it that difficult?

The remaining four sects are naturally quite powerful, but compared to the above three sects, they lack the unique characteristics of their sects.

For example, the Qingguang Sect uses formations to enter the Tao, observing the direction of the spiritual veins of heaven and earth. With a wave of the hand, millions of runes appear, and the heaven and earth turn. The spiritual power of heaven and earth can be touched at will, and their methods are quite impressive.

As for the Xumi Palace, by comprehending the techniques of Xumi, one can control the heaven and earth. With just a move of the hand, the space seems to be under control.

Tiange Mansion emphasizes the integration of three methods. One can practice the three methods simultaneously to integrate their strengths.

The Tiandan Sect uses elixir to enter the Tao, tempering the essence of heaven and earth, using heaven and earth as a furnace, refining elixir and transforming it into qi, and there is nothing that is not refined.

The above are the seven sects, and the four great families are also closely related to them, and even have most of the say in them.

After all, the four major families themselves have many children and abundant resources, so naturally they have many disciples, and they have considerable abilities in various factions.

Of course, the aristocratic families and the sects are not in harmony with each other. In order to prevent the sects from being dominated by the aristocratic families, the seven major sects all have a tacit understanding to impose certain restrictions on the children of the aristocratic families to join the sect. For example, ordinary people are admitted at the age of sixteen, but the aristocratic families must join the sect from the age of five.

This is also to cultivate their sense of honor for the sect so as to avoid being coerced by the aristocratic families.

Of course, it is not impossible to join a sect at the age of sixteen, but the resources obtained by disciples from such aristocratic families, as well as the treatment and position they receive after being promoted to the Nascent Soul stage, will be different.

In short, sects and aristocratic families are interrelated, but also closely inseparable.

The huge city of Dingshan is where the Jiang family is located, and the Meteor Mansion is in charge of this city.

Meteor Palace cultivates with star power, and Dingshan Giant City naturally takes this palace as its wind.

Keqing looked around and saw that all the plaques on the road were named after stars or related to the stars.

The Tianxing Pavilion that sells all kinds of immortal cultivation tools, the Meteorite Boat that forges magic weapons and spiritual energy, even the lanterns in front of the door that emit a hazy spiritual light, also emit a faint star power. When the spiritual consciousness scans them, they are lively and quiet, mixed in the spiritual energy, like naughty children, provoking the surrounding spiritual energy to sway gently.

It was not known whether it was a formation or some other ability, but when stepping into the city, Keqing could feel that the star power around her seemed to resonate with her own heart. The red waves of the sun rolled in her body, and spiritual power mixed with wisps of chaotic star power was spontaneously absorbed into her heart. In her heart, the sunlight was like fire, and wisp after wisp of external spiritual power was separated.

The spiritual power and star power were divided into two. The former sank into the twenty-square thunder pool and turned into purple liquid in the pool; the latter sank into the air and dissipated into the endless void of the sea of ​​​​heart.

Keqing looked up. It was a clear morning with morning glow all over the sky. The distant sky was coated with a layer of golden color. However, even so, it did not block the countless stars in the sky. They flickered, side by side with the sun, and bloomed on this vast sky, and were particularly conspicuous.

So when Keqing stepped in, the first thing she saw was the three huge monuments under the beams of light in the city, followed by the countless twinkling stars under the sky.

There are countless stars guarding the sky, among which the Seven Stars are the brightest. When they are connected together, the brilliant galaxy is dazzling.

"How is it? It's a wonder, right?"

She heard a hint of satisfaction and pride in her ears. Keqing did not look back immediately, but raised her head to look at the sky for a while before she retracted her gaze and nodded slightly.

"Indeed, the stars in the daytime coexist with the scorching sun without obscuring their brilliance. This is the first time I've seen it, and I'm a little surprised."

"It seems that this is your first time here, fellow Daoist. This is the characteristic of Dingshan Giant City. After all, the place where Meteor Mansion is located has strong star power, coupled with the unique star-attracting formation. Such scenery is deliberately created by Meteor Mansion. People who come here for the first time will be surprised."

The visitor spoke slowly, and then paused.

"You are quite unique, you are not from Meteor Mansion, but you can absorb star power into your body. Could it be that you have also practiced the method of absorbing stars? Or maybe you have absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth or something like that."

Keqing looked over and saw a young boy, about seventeen or eighteen years old, sizing her up curiously. He opened and closed the fan in his hand, nodded and shook his head in sync, and spoke in a very logical manner, like a scholar.

Seeing Keqing looking at him, the boy's eyes flashed with surprise, then he realized what he had said and apologized quickly.

"Sorry, I made a mistake."

The technique was originally everyone's secret, and he was quite rude in the world of immortal cultivation to ask and reveal it in public. Especially to say this to a stranger was even more offensive.

Fortunately, Keqing is not that kind of person. Seeing the boy's serious and sincere apology, she shook her head and said it was okay. At the same time, she was quite curious and asked the boy how he knew that she was not from Meteor Mansion.

Seeing that Keqing didn't care, the young man breathed a sigh of relief. Then, when he saw her asking him the reason, his eyes lit up and he slammed the folding fan in his hand shut and slapped it against his palm.

"You asked the right question. That's because you don't look like him!"

The boy smiled shyly, with a gleam in his eyes.

"The Star Art of Meteor Mansion was created by the Star Ancestor. It can absorb the power of the stars in the sky, condense the stars in the body, and then condense the soul into the spirit, using the star to form the star in the sky. You can choose a star as your natal star, achieve the golden elixir and gain great supernatural powers."

“However, when a star enters a body, it carries with it an unusual divine power, which ordinary people cannot perceive. But I am a little different. I can see that fellow Daoist does not have a natal star in his body, so he is naturally not from Meteor Palace.”

The young man looked at Keqing with sparkling eyes and excitement.

However, what he did not say was that although there were no stars, the moment the other party appeared in his sight, it seemed as if he was emitting a dazzling light all over his body, like a descending sun that firmly attracted his attention.

Even his eyes felt a little stinging, which was something he had never experienced before.

In his eyes, everyone has his or her own shadow of Tao above his or her head, like an illusion, intangible and invisible, floating above the head.

That is the image of the heart of Tao, which allows him to see a person's temperament, strength, character, and even a little bit of his future destiny and his own skills.

For example, above the heads of evil cultivators there are black clouds pressing down on the sky and resentful souls flowing with blood; while above the heads of Taoist cultivators there are flying clouds and cranes circling around them.

However, the image of Tao heart of most people is extremely vague, or even just a faint shadow. There is cause and effect surrounding their bodies, and their blood energy is not dissipated, suppressing the image of Tao heart. This means that this person's Tao heart is not yet formed, and cause and effect have been formed. Their Tao heart has not emerged and is suppressed by cause and effect.

Only for a small number of geniuses the image of their Tao heart is exceptionally clear, as if it were the real thing.

However, there has never been anyone like the girl in front of him. Her Tao heart is like a huge sun suspended in the sky, incredibly bright. If he glanced at her casually, his entire vision would be covered by the light, which was extremely dazzling.

When you get closer, you will see that the fiery red sun is surrounded by lightning, like a wolf or a tiger, or a dragon or snake moving around, exuding the mighty power of heaven.

That dragon not only contained terrifying divine power, it even had virtues as its dragon whiskers and national destiny as its dragon scales. It was entwined above the sun and forged by fierce fire, like a phoenix reborn from the ashes, dispelling countless causes and effects and blood around it. Anything it touched would be burned by the fierce fire and turned into nothingness, without even a single leaf getting on its body.

Faintly, under the roar of the giant dragon, a vague unknown world appeared behind him, with endless mountains and...

"Roar!"

"Well……"

Under a silent dragon roar, the young man subconsciously closed his eyes, and tears of blood flowed out.

Chapter 136: Jiang Yu, the Soul Gathering Tower

Chapter 136

Keqing felt something and looked into the boy's eyes.

"Is there anything wrong with you, Taoist friend?"

"It's okay. It's an old problem. I'm sorry."

After he turned ten, his Dao Eyes were fully formed and there would be no more backlash. But now, this was the first time he had been hit by backlash in ten years. He was really careless.

I feel the same way.

Fortunately, the other party's aura was peaceful, and he did not have the sharp and murderous intent like the others, otherwise the backlash might have been even more serious.

He pinched his fingers and performed a cleansing technique to clear the blood and tears. The young man restrained the light in his eyes, put away his nonchalant attitude, and looked solemn.

"I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Jiang Yu, and I'm a member of the Jiang family."

A member of the Jiang family? Keqing suddenly realized, what a coincidence?

She nodded.

"Keqing, a free cultivator"

The girl was calm and relaxed. She didn't feel any special treatment because of her name Jiang, which made Jiang Yu's evaluation of the girl even higher. But could she be a casual cultivator?

Jiang Yu thought that the other party was a talented young man from some force who came out to gain experience.

You should know that the other party's robes may look plain, but in fact they have many patterns, are of excellent quality, are filled with spiritual energy, and have a restrained brilliance. It is obviously of a high grade, at least sixth grade or above.

Although the hairpin on the girl's head was simple and antique, when she opened her Taoist eyes and glanced at it, it actually emitted an extraordinary spiritual charm. Not to mention the sword in her hand, which looked ordinary, but was like a huge mouth of the void, with an endless abyss lurking inside, which was frightening at first sight.

However, this is just a casual cultivator...

Jiang Yu was somewhat speechless. Are the independent cultivators so rich now? Or is the girl in front of him different from other independent cultivators?

Keqing... this name looks so familiar, I seem to have heard it somewhere before?

Because of the instability of this pair of spirit-gathering Dao Eyes, Jiang Yu seldom went out and did not join a sect. He was always protected at home. When the Dao Eyes were initially formed and no longer easily backfired as before, his parents placed their hopes on him again.

After he turned ten, the Jiang family specially asked for a heavenly-level technique from somewhere else for him to practice. The resources were unlimited, the Yuanying-stage clan members preached, and all kinds of natural treasures that could be found were used to wash the marrow, expand the meridians, and nourish the eyes of Tao. This is how Jiang Yu was able to advance to the Jindan stage in just over 20 years old.

Therefore, before the Jindan stage, Jiang Yu basically never left the Jiang family, so he was a little slow to respond to news from the outside world. That was why he only felt that the name sounded familiar, but did not think about what it was.

Naturally, he would not recognize that the other party was on the list of geniuses.

Fortunately, the Jiang family is a great family with thousands of years of heritage, so they naturally know that practicing behind closed doors will not last long. A Jindan cultivator who practices in this way, even if he has deep spiritual power and sufficient talent, but does not have sufficient combat experience and does not understand the ways of the world, is just a more powerful sheep in the eyes of the outside world.

So after Jiang Yu reached the Golden Core stage, he taught him various fighting techniques and how to use spiritual power. He did not stop until his spiritual power had reached the perfection of the early Golden Core stage until then, and only then did he completely loosen his protection of Jiang Yu. This was also the reason why he seemed not good at speaking when they first met.

After the two exchanged their names, seeing that Keqing was not opposed, Jiang Yu suggested taking her on a tour around the city and introducing her to the city.

Keqing naturally agreed happily, and after a conversation between the two, they both felt that the other was very much to their liking.

It's not like Jiang Yu hasn't seen those geniuses before. As a big family, there will always be some geniuses coming to visit. However, those geniuses are not as good as the girl in front of him. She is calm and there is a hint of mystery in her every move. Not only does she not have a trace of arrogance, but her words and deeds are also quite innovative, which is enlightening.

Unlike those geniuses, who were polite to him on the surface, speaking politely but obliquely, the conversation was boring and not direct at all.

Don't think that he didn't see the hidden arrogance, madness and a bit of contempt in the other's eyes that only belong to geniuses.

Therefore, he would lose interest after just a few words of conversation.

The fact that he possessed the Eye of Dao was unknown to anyone except his parents and ancestors. Moreover, he often practiced in a special place for practicing martial arts, and had special training from the Yuanying clan members.

Therefore, not to mention outsiders, even most of the Jiang family members only knew that he did not go out for many years, but was loved by the ancestors and had a congenitally weak body. Therefore, when they saw his cultivation level of the Jindan stage, they thought that he was blessed with resources.

In order to protect him, the Jiang family naturally would not explain, so Jiang Yu lived up to this name. This is also the reason why those geniuses are like this, polite yet distant, with a hint of contempt.

In response, Jiang Yu just smiled slightly. Our ancestors said that people with different beliefs cannot work together. Those people are probably just like that.

On the contrary, the girl in front of him was not like that. After several conversations, Jiang Yu simply regarded her as a friend.

As the two chatted, they came to a tall building covered with jewels and precious stones.

"Keqing, this is the Soul Gathering Tower in the city. It is said to gather all the treasures in the world. Although it is not as exaggerated as it is said, the treasures inside are also precious."

"Gathering Spirits Tower, I seem to have seen it in Cangshan Market?"

Keqing looked at the almost identical building in front of her and couldn't help but say that compared to the Gathering Spirit Building in the market town, the Gathering Spirit Building in front of her was not only several times larger, but the door was also very imposing. The entire building was built of high-grade spiritual wood, and there were countless array patterns at the door, and spiritual energy was lingering, emitting a faint glow.

The building in front of us is itself a magic weapon, and it can be said to be a grand work of art.

"Have you seen Keqing? That's right. I heard that the power behind this Juling Tower is quite strong.

Extraordinary, not only here, there are Zilou everywhere in Cangzhou, even in other states."

Jiang Yu clapped his hands with his folding fan and explained.

Keqing suddenly realized that it made sense. No wonder he was so generous, because he was rich.

Just like Ningguang, who relied on his wealth and had clearly reserved the "Sparse Glaze Crescent" from Mingxingzhai in advance, but when he went to pick it up, he found out that she had bought all the "Sparse Glaze Crescent" at twice the price.

Thinking of this, Keqing got a little angry!

However, I am now in another world and have not seen that guy for a long time, and I don’t know how Liyue is doing.

And Ganyu and the others...

Thinking about this, I felt a little depressed.

"Each of these Soul Gathering Pavilions has different treasures, adapted to local conditions. I can say that the Soul Gathering Pavilion in Dingshan Giant City is definitely the highest standard among them. Although it is not as good as our Jiang family, it is better in terms of completeness and occasionally has good things. Fellow Daoist, why not take a look?"

"it is good"

Gathering her thoughts, Keqing nodded in response.

Actually, although the master gave me a lot of things, including magic weapons, talismans, and elixirs, they were all things for attacking and saving lives.

However, the master forgot that she also had a sword with an accessory that could devour gold. You know, this sword started to devour swords from the very beginning. Although she didn't know why, Keqing could feel that devouring these things was good for the Echo Sword.

She had also read in records that some spiritual swords would devour some spiritual materials in order to improve their grade.

So she decided to buy some spiritual materials for the Echoing Sword. Maybe after swallowing them, the Echoing Sword would have some new changes.

After all, she might be short of those rare treasures in the storage bag, but the only thing she would not be short of was spirit stones. There could be nearly tens of millions of spirit stones in the storage bag, which was enough.

During this period of time, Huiguang Sword has vaguely expressed its grievances.

With this in mind, Keqing and Jiang Yu entered the Spirit Gathering Tower together.

"My dear guests, what may I do for you?"

As soon as you enter the door, a beautiful maid comes to greet you.

Chapter 137: A person of questionable character?

The Gathering Spirits Building here is indeed much bigger than that in the market town. Not only are there so many people as soon as you come in, but the number of treasures shrouded in barriers is completely overwhelming.

A quick glance reveals that the entire first floor lobby is as large as half a football field, with all kinds of treasure cabinets placed in it.

In the middle of the hall, a huge 3D projection appeared in the sky above the center, projecting a glittering treasure with dazzling light and aura that turned into mist.

I saw a long sword flashing with cold ice being projected. The sword body was as thin as a cicada's wing and more than three feet long. The hilt was made of icy stone. It was cold all over. It was carefully crafted with countless mysterious patterns engraved on it, making it even more mysterious. It was obviously a good sword at first glance.

But...is this true or false?
