Chapter 623

Since breaking through to the fourth layer of Jin Dan, Song Qingming had exchanged some talisman-making materials from the sect's Merit Pavilion and tried several times to draw third-grade spiritual talismans, wanting to improve his talisman-making technique to the third-grade low-quality.

As a result, after a few years, Song Qingming tried many times and spent tens of thousands of spiritual stones on talisman-making materials, but only successfully drew one third-grade low-quality spiritual talisman, which could be said to be a big loss.

The materials needed to make third-grade spiritual talismans require materials from third-grade demonic beasts and spiritual herbs and spiritual woods with a medicinal age of more than one thousand years. These are relatively rare spiritual items in the Wei Kingdom's cultivation world.

Even though he had accumulated a lot of spiritual stones over the years, it was difficult for Song Qingming to get these high-tier talisman-making materials for a while. If he wanted to quickly improve his talisman-making technique and become a qualified third-grade talisman master, he still needed to think of other ways.

After putting away the spiritual pen in his hand, Song Qingming, with a look of helplessness on his face, turned and walked towards the stone room where spiritual beasts were fed on the side of the cave.

Just as he walked to the entrance of the stone room, dozens of "Golden Illusion Butterflies" that had advanced to the second grade flew out and landed on Song Qingming, making his whole person look a bit colorful.

In the past two years, through the continuous feeding of "Ice Crystal Jade Liquid," Song Qingming had more than two hundred second-grade "Golden Illusion Butterflies" that had successfully advanced by his side. Now, the power gathered by these spiritual insects in his hand could almost contend with a Jin Dan early-stage cultivator.

For this kind of spiritual insect "Golden Illusion Butterfly," after advancing to the second grade, its attack ability is generally mainly based on illusion divine abilities, which are quite powerful. More than a few hundred can contain a Jin Dan cultivator.

But after the spiritual insects reach a certain number, the test for the controller's spiritual sense is also very great.

Song Qingming felt that although his spiritual sense was much stronger than that of ordinary cultivators of the same tier, he could only control these three hundred or so second-grade "Golden Illusion Butterflies" at the same time at most. It would be difficult to exert their maximum power if there were more.

Therefore, after advancing enough "Golden Illusion Butterflies," Song Qingming handed over the remaining "Ice Crystal Jade Liquid" in his hand to Huang Siyuan to help advance the batch of spiritual insects she controlled.

Although the cost of cultivating these "Golden Illusion Butterflies" is not low, after the number increases, combined with a relatively strong spiritual sense, the improvement in the cultivator's combat power is still very significant.

Although Huang Siyuan's spiritual sense is not strong enough now, she can only control dozens of second-grade "Golden Illusion Butterflies," but it can also help her be invincible among Foundation Establishment cultivators.

After knowing the power of "Golden Illusion Butterflies," Song Qingming had an idea and began to collect spiritual water similar to "Ice Crystal Jade Liquid" everywhere.

As long as there is a way to cultivate more second-grade "Golden Illusion Butterflies," in the future, not only he and Huang Siyuan, but other clan cultivators can also refer to this method to cultivate some "Golden Illusion Butterflies" to help improve their own combat power.

However, the cost of cultivating and advancing "Golden Illusion Butterflies" is really not low. Ordinary Qi Condensation cultivators definitely do not have too many resources to invest in this, and only cultivators above the Foundation Establishment stage have the ability to cultivate these second-grade or higher spiritual insects for a long time.

After checking these "Golden Illusion Butterflies" on his body, Song Qingming satisfiedly put them into the spiritual beast bag, and then came to a pool of water emitting a trace of cold air in the middle of the stone room.

Just after stopping by the pool, Song Qingming stretched out his right hand and touched the water surface. In this originally cold pool, a burst of small water bubbles suddenly emerged from below, and immediately after, the temperature of the pool water also began to rise rapidly.

A moment later, a crimson little snake suddenly rushed out of the pool, climbed directly into Song Qingming's hand, and stared at Song Qingming's gaze with its thumb-sized head held high.

"Not bad! Finally advanced to the middle stage of Qi Condensation, it's finally some progress!" Looking at the crimson little snake in front of him, Song Qingming praised it with a satisfied face.

Hearing Song Qingming's praise, the crimson little snake suddenly changed its whole body color, from the initial crimson to deep blue, and climbed onto his shoulder along his arm.

This crimson little snake was the "Ice-Fire Flood Dragon" that was helped to hatch by Song Qingming when Fire Phoenix left two years ago.

After Song Qingming's careful cultivation over the past two years, after feeding the other party many spiritual items, the vitality lost in the "Ice-Fire Flood Dragon" finally slowly recovered, and it successfully advanced to the middle stage of Qi Condensation.

Seeing that the spiritual stones he had spent over the past two years had finally yielded some results, Song Qingming felt a bit gratified in his heart.

"Ice-Fire Flood Dragon" is a spiritual beast with a higher bloodline than "Heavenly Fire Peng." If cultivated properly in the future, its chance of advancing to the Jin Dan stage will be greater than that of "Heavenly Fire Peng." This point is also what Song Qingming likes most.

Although the cost of resources required in the early stage of cultivating spiritual beasts is also a significant amount, Song Qingming is now a Jin Dan cultivator, so this amount of spiritual stones has long since not counted for anything to him.

After taking out a low-tier spiritual feeding pill and feeding the "Ice-Fire Flood Dragon" on his shoulder, Song Qingming was about to go to the side to sit in meditation for a while when a sound-transmission talisman suddenly flew into his cave, interrupting his cultivation plan.

After picking up the sound-transmission talisman and looking at it, Song Qingming was slightly happy, hurriedly put away the spiritual beast on his body, walked towards the entrance, and directly opened the gate of his cave.

A moment later, Huang Siyuan, dressed in white plain clothes and having just come out of seclusion from the cave, walked into his cave quickly.

"It looks like your injuries have almost recovered and will be restored soon. In another four or five years, you should be able to impact the Jin Dan realm again!"

Huang Siyuan smiled slightly: "This is thanks to the high-tier healing elixir you exchanged for me from Senior Chu, otherwise I'm afraid it would take another year or two for my injuries to fully recover."

After Huang Siyuan failed to achieve Core Formation, like Song Qingming back then, the meridians in her body also suffered not light injuries. Most of her time in the past few years was spent in seclusion for healing, and now she was finally about to recover.

"You and I are people who support each other. Why be so polite? It's been so long since we went back, and I don't know how Qingyu's natal magic treasure is being refined. Since you have also come out of seclusion, follow me back to see!"

Huang Siyuan nodded slightly. The two walked out of the cave, took the "Phantom Boat," and returned to Qinghe County in less than an hour.

Just arriving near the top of Mount Funiu, Song Qingming and the other saw a sword light flying towards them from afar. However, after a moment, Song Qingyu in green clothes appeared in front of the "Phantom Boat" stepping on a golden flying sword.

Song Qingming, standing on the flying boat, saw Song Qingyu's figure, and was happy in his heart, directly asking: "Qingyu, when did you come out of seclusion? Why didn't you send a letter to Mount Tuoyun to notify us?"

Song Qingyu looked at the two with a smile: "I just came out of seclusion yesterday and was preparing to go to Mount Tuoyun to find you. I didn't expect Seventh Brother and you to arrive first."

"Seeing you so happy, could it be that the natal magic treasure has been refined? It wouldn't be this flying sword, would it!" Song Qingming looked at the golden flying sword under Song Qingyu's feet and asked with a trace of curiosity.

Song Qingyu heard this, waved her hand gently, and the golden flying sword under her feet split into three, turning into three golden lights and flying in front of her.

"These three flying swords are the natal magic treasures I refined, named: Xuanming Jin Guang Sword. They can be controlled separately or fused together to fight the enemy. If used as a flying magic tool, the speed is not much slower than an ordinary third-grade flying boat."

"It was refined after more than a year of seclusion according to the method of refining natal magic treasures attached to that sword intent inheritance."

After hearing Song Qingyu's explanation, the gazes of Song Qingming and Huang Siyuan were attracted by the "Xuanming Jin Guang Sword" in front of her.

The aura pressure of Song Qingyu's natal flying sword magic treasure was obviously not a common item, and it was not worse than the natal magic treasure "Five Elements Divine Light Mirror" on Song Qingming's body. If only talking about offensive ability, I am afraid the power of "Xuanming Jin Guang Sword" would be even better.

Moreover, Song Qingyu's natal flying sword magic treasure could also be continuously advanced and improved with the improvement of cultivation base in the future. It was estimated that the power would surpass the "Five Elements Divine Light Mirror" on Song Qingming's body in the future.

Song Qingming was not surprised by this. After all, the combat divine abilities of the sword cultivation Dao should be more powerful than ordinary cultivators. It was also within his expectation that Song Qingyu's natal magic treasure would be stronger than his "Five Elements Divine Light Mirror."

After the three chatted for a few sentences outside the mountain, they soon entered Mount Funiu together and came to the Huixian Building on the top of the mountain.

To congratulate Song Qingyu on refining her natal magic treasure and Huang Siyuan on her recovery, Song Qingming was very generous this time. He called someone to the clan's Golden Treasury Pavilion, took out a jar of spiritual wine he had treasured for a long time, and called several clan elders to celebrate for her in the Huixian Pavilion.

A few days later, in the Song family's meeting hall, Song Qingming summoned several Foundation Establishment elders of the clan to gather together and listen to them report on the situation of the clan in all aspects.

In addition to Song Yuanfang, Song Yuanxue, Song Changzheng, and Song Yuanhao, there was one more Foundation Establishment cultivator, who was Song Yuanqian, who had successfully achieved Foundation Establishment more than half a year ago and had just stabilized her cultivation base.

And another person, Song Changwen, who had been in seclusion to impact the Foundation Establishment realm at about the same time as her, because his luck was slightly worse, after a lot of effort, he still failed to achieve Foundation Establishment, did not enter the Foundation Establishment realm, and became the second person in the Song family who failed to achieve Foundation Establishment after taking the Foundation Establishment Pill.

Song Qingming was not surprised by this result. After all, the talent foundation of the two people who achieved Foundation Establishment this time was not as good as that of Song Yuanhao and the others who achieved Foundation Establishment before. Having one person successfully achieve Foundation Establishment could already be considered a very good result for the Song family!

After Song Yuanfang and the others finished reporting the things in their hands, Song Qingming said again:

"Qingyu's natal magic treasure has now been refined, and the clan's Golden Treasury Pavilion is almost ready. I plan to set off in half a year to take you to the East Sea cultivation world to purchase elixirs and spiritual items."

"One is to purchase some Foundation Establishment Pills for the clan to cultivate more Foundation Establishment cultivators for the clan. The second is to see if I can find a Five Elements Core Formation spiritual item for Siyuan by the way."

"If you have anything you need that you can't find for a while, you can also tell me directly, and I will help you inquire about it by the way."

"Seventh Uncle, can you take me with you to see it when the time comes?" Hearing that Song Qingming was about to go to the East Sea cultivation world, Song Yuanhao, who also wanted to go out for a walk, asked excitedly.

Just when Song Qingming was about to speak, a rush of footsteps suddenly came from outside the meeting hall, and a Qi Condensation cultivator holding a red sound-transmission talisman suddenly broke in.

"Ancestor! Urgent letter from the sect." (End of chapter)
