Chapter 563: Get Lost

"Fellow Daoists, I don't know your honorable names, so I won't set up a monument for you."

After bowing and offering sacrifices in front of the grave, Song Song Qingming took out the "Thunder-Gathering Bead," turned around, and left this place, walking into the stone pillars where thunder light was rolling.

This "Cloud-Thunder Formation" was also the most powerful restriction Song Song Qingming and the others had witnessed since entering the Heaven-Reaching Tower.

If one did not have a profound cultivation base above the late-stage Golden Core, or a magic treasure like Song Song Qingming's that just happened to restrain the thunder light in the formation, it would be absolutely impossible to have the confidence to break through the Cloud-Thunder Great Formation to take treasures inside.

After the time of an incense stick, Jin Wu Ziyuan, who was waiting outside, saw that no one had walked out of the "Cloud-Thunder Formation" for a long time. A trace of nervousness appeared on his face, and he quietly transmitted a voice to Zhao Zhao Menglian, who was closing her eyes and resting on the side.

"Senior Sister Zhao, Junior Brother Song still hasn't come out yet. Could something have happened to him inside?"

"Look, you are impatient again. Junior Brother Song has always been cautious in his personality and has a treasure on his body that restrains thunder light. Even if he can't break through, he should still have no big problem protecting himself.

Junior Brother Song hasn't come out yet, so it's possible he has already successfully broken through the Cloud-Thunder Formation and entered the restriction. Let's wait patiently for a while. If you hope for him to be well, maybe when Junior Brother Song comes out, he can still share some treasures with you." Zhao Zhao Menglian opened her eyes, glared at Jin Wu Ziyuan, and then scolded him with displeasure.

Having been in the same sect for many years, Zhao Zhao Menglian naturally knew Jin Wu Ziyuan's personality very well, but she had no way to deal with him.

Just as the two were talking, a streak of green light suddenly flew out from the position between the stone pillars behind them, turning into a man in green clothes.

This movement immediately alarmed the group who were resting nearby. After looking up and confirming that it was Song Song Qingming who came out, Jin Wu Ziyuan was the first to greet him with a happy smile.

The reason Song Song Qingming was so generous, giving each person present a second-tier spiritual fruit, was also to let everyone feel balanced in their hearts.

These spiritual fruits were obtained by Song Song Qingming alone after taking risks to break in. According to the rules agreed upon by everyone before, he did not need to take them out and distribute them to everyone.

"Fellow Daoist Zhao is right. A third-tier spiritual fruit tree, if taken out, can at least be exchanged for tens of thousands of spirit stones. If there were a way to transplant it, after so many years, I don't know how many people have been here. It should have long since not been our turn to consider this matter."

"Hehe! It's a pity that Senior Sister Zhao couldn't go in together just now. Otherwise, a third-tier spiritual fruit tree, if it could be transplanted and taken outside to sell, everyone would also be able to share quite a few spirit stones."

Seeing that Song Song Qingming was so generous, the group on the side also revealed a trace of surprise. After declining a few times, seeing that Song Song Qingming was indeed sincerely willing to share the spiritual items he obtained with everyone, they did not say anything more and accepted this gift with joy.

Seeing that everyone was also looking forward to it, Song Song Qingming revealed a smile and nodded to Jin Wu Ziyuan.

After Song Song Qingming finished speaking, he took out five second-tier spiritual fruits he brought out from inside and distributed them to the five people including Jin Wu Ziyuan.

Hearing Jin Wu Ziyuan's greedy words, Zhao Zhao Menglian immediately shook her head, "The owner of this Heaven-Reaching Tower set up such a powerful Cloud-Thunder Formation here, probably also to guard against this matter. Even if I went in and transplanted this tree, under these conditions, I would have no way to bring it out safely."

When encountering a crisis, a good impression might be exchanged for the other party's help at a critical moment, giving you more chances to escape.

The second-tier spiritual fruits sent out were also precious items, but compared to the few rare third-tier spiritual fruits Song Song Qingming obtained in the restriction this time, the value of these spiritual items was not worth mentioning.

After coming out of such a dangerous restriction, even if Song Song Qingming did not say it, it was not difficult for everyone present to guess that the things he obtained by going in this time were definitely more than the second-tier spiritual fruits in front of them.

Even an ordinary second-tier mid-quality spiritual fruit can be worth hundreds of spirit stones. Song Song Qingming being willing to take out so many to distribute to everyone was indeed somewhat beyond their expectations.

When going out, especially in a dangerous secret realm like the "Heaven-Reaching Tower," even if he temporarily abandons some small interests, Song Song Qingming would try his best to get along with the people around him and try his best not to leave a bad impression on the other party.

"There was only one third-tier spiritual fruit tree inside. I picked some matured spiritual fruits on it. Apart from that, there was nothing else. Please don't dislike these spiritual fruits, and thank you all for waiting for me for so long outside."

"Second-tier mid-quality Blood Dragon Fruit, this thing is a good item! Fellow Daoist Song is truly too polite!" Seeing the red spiritual fruit in his hand, the relatively knowledgeable True Person Qingluo immediately recognized this item, and a trace of surprise appeared on his face.

Everyone was very satisfied with this, and their impression of Song Song Qingming naturally became even better. Even Yun Yun Xinxue, who was cold and indifferent to Song Song Qingming at the beginning, took the initiative to step forward and bow to him to express his gratitude.

"Junior Brother Song, how is it? Did you break through the Cloud-Thunder Formation?"

Confirming that Song Song Qingming had broken into the restriction, Jin Wu Ziyuan hurriedly continued to ask with curiosity, "There shouldn't have been anyone preempting you inside, right? Junior Brother Song, did you have any harvest?"

Seeing that everyone was about to start explaining to him, Jin Wu Ziyuan immediately waved his hand, "Understood, understood, I just said that. You really thought I couldn't see the situation inside at all?

Anyway, it wasn't a wasted trip here this time. We can be considered to have earned it. The Heaven-Reaching Tower is so big, there are plenty of places to find spiritual items. If it doesn't work here, just change to another place."

Hearing Jin Wu Ziyuan's words, the group present could not help but laugh a few times, and soon they left here together to head to the next place to search for treasures.

Two days later, outside a palace on the third level of the "Heaven-Reaching Tower" that had been abandoned for a long time, several streaks of light suddenly flew over, turning into three Golden Core cultivators with different attire.

These three Golden Core cultivators, two men and one woman, all had cultivation bases above the mid-stage of the Golden Core. The leading person had a cultivation base even higher than Zhao Zhao Menglian's, already reaching the peak of the sixth-layer Golden Core realm, only one step away from entering the late-stage Golden Core.

The middle-aged man at the sixth layer of the Golden Core picked up a somewhat ancient map in his hand, looked at it, and said to the two people beside him with joy, "That's right, it should be here!"

"Hehe! Brother Li, it seems our luck should be good this time. It seems no one has been here recently. There are eight chances out of ten that there are good things inside. Let's hurry in and take a look!"

Hearing the urging of another young man on the side, the leading middle-aged man shook his head with a complex expression, "Sigh! We have already found this place, why be in such a hurry? If we rashly go in and encounter any powerful restrictions, and all three of us are trapped inside, that would be troublesome!"

"What does Brother Li mean?"

Seeing the middle-aged man who had always been very casual in several treasure-seeking places before suddenly become cautious, the woman on the side also revealed a trace of confusion.

"Two Fellow Daoists, don't be in a hurry. Let me explore the path first!"

The middle-aged man did not wait for the other two to agree and directly took out a second-tier puppet beast from his storage bag, casting a spell to control it directly toward the entrance of the palace.

After seeing this scene, the man and the woman looked at each other, both seeing a trace of displeasure in each other's eyes, but after thinking for a moment, they both endured it and did not express it directly.

The three of them entered the "Heaven-Reaching Tower" this time because the leading middle-aged man carried a map of the tower and had promised to let him take an extra share of the spiritual items found. They did not expect the other party to play such small tricks at this time.

Calling it exploring the path in advance, wasn't it just wanting to see if he could let his puppet beast go in first to see if he could secretly hide one or two things?

Not long after the middle-aged man controlled the puppet beast to enter the palace, he suddenly felt that the connection between himself and the puppet beast was directly cut off. He immediately withdrew his divine sense and opened his eyes.

Before he could speak, a loud noise suddenly came from the palace, and subsequently, a puppet beast that had been forcibly twisted and deformed was thrown out directly from the palace.

Seeing this scene, the three people who were still scheming against each other in their hearts also knew that there were still people in the palace, and their expressions changed one after another, taking out their own magic treasures!

"Who is hiding inside, acting sneakily?"

"Hmph! Today this old man doesn't want to fight. If you three don't want to die yet, then get lost for me!" After a somewhat fierce voice came out, a large gray bird suddenly appeared at the entrance of the palace, staring at the three people in front of him with displeasure.

"A late-stage Golden Core Great Demon King!"

Seeing this large bird in front of them, the three middle-aged men revealed a look of surprise, then looked at each other again, not knowing what to say for a while.

Although their side had three people and their strength was not weak, facing a strange late-stage Golden Core Great Demon King, they still did not have enough confidence to defeat the other party.

"Fellow Daoist..."

"Why, I gave you a chance, you don't want to leave, right!"

Seeing the fierce look of wanting to give it a try already revealed in the eyes of the other party looking at him, the middle-aged man who was interrupted, after looking at the palace in front with reluctance, took the lead in turning into a streak of light and leaving the original spot.

Seeing this, the other two also did not dare to stay. After sighing with grievance, they also followed and disappeared from the original spot.

After driving these three away, Long Feng scanned the surroundings, then walked back into the palace and came to the side of Huo Feng, who was closing her eyes and resting.

"Three mid-stage Golden Core brats came, and they have already been driven away by me. If Your Highness hadn't stopped me from taking action, hehe! Today I could have had a good fight again!"

After Huo Feng opened her eyes, she did not pay attention to the trace of complaint in Long Feng's mouth and directly threw out a golden feather, placing it in his hand.

"That guy has already come up. Take this and go over to pick him up and bring him here first."
