Chapter 815: Family's retreat, breaking through to the ninth layer of Jin Dan

Before he left, Song Song Qingming had already arranged for Song Song Changze's Jin Dan formation, letting him go to the cave dwelling at the bottom of the pool near "Cangyuan Mountain" to go into seclusion and form a Jin Dan.

The spiritual energy in the "cave dwelling at the bottom of the pool" that Song Song Qingming used for seclusion and Jin Dan formation back then was not as good as "Mount Funiu Mountain."

But because of the existence of the "Spirit Machine Spring Eye," cultivators can get some extra blessing by going into seclusion there, and the effect of seclusion and Jin Dan formation will be better than "Mount Funiu Mountain."

Therefore, Song Song Qingming had set the place for Song Song Changze's seclusion and Jin Dan formation there in advance.

Hearing Song Song Qingming suddenly ask about Song Song Qingyu and Song Song Changze's Jin Dan formation, Huang Huang Siyuan naturally knew that he was worried about this, and nodded and replied:

"Husband guessed right. Song Changze has already started seclusion and Jin Dan formation in Cangyuan Mountain a year ago. Song Qingyu and I take turns guarding him, and she is now sitting in town on Cangyuan Mountain."

"For fear of leaking the news, besides me, Song Qingyu, and Song Yuanfang, no one else in the family knows about this."

"Song Qingyu has sent news back in the past few months, and Song Changze's seclusion situation is all normal. Husband, rest assured, if there is anything, Song Qingyu will definitely inform us in advance."

After Huang Huang Siyuan finished explaining Song Song Changze's seclusion situation in one breath, Song Song Qingming, holding the teacup, nodded slightly and drank the spiritual tea in the cup, then stood up with a smile:

"Since I just happened to come back, let's go and see the situation!"

Facing Song Song Qingming's warm invitation, Huang Huang Siyuan naturally wouldn't refuse. Half an hour later, the figures of the two soon appeared by the Golden Water River on the southwest side of "Cangyuan Mountain."

Since the Song family obtained the third-tier spiritual vein of "Cangyuan Mountain" from the Xiaoyao Sect, the area within a thousand miles around here has also become one of the territories of the Song family.

It includes many large and small spiritual mountains and spiritual veins, all spiritual herbs, spiritual medicines, and undeveloped mineral resources, all belonging to the Song family.

Without the permission of the Song family, nearby cultivators and loose cultivators cannot enter the Song family's territory at will to open cave dwellings or collect spiritual medicine and mineral vein resources.

Therefore, after the Song family took charge of the "Cangyuan Mountain" spiritual vein, nearby cultivators gradually moved away from this place, and the surroundings of "Cangyuan Mountain" slowly became relatively cold.

The two went west along the "Golden Water River." After passing a few hills, the flying boat soon came under a second-tier spiritual mountain covered by a magic array.

After arriving here, Huang Huang Siyuan, who was standing above the flying boat, moved her hand quickly, and a white sound transmission spiritual talisman with an ordinary appearance soon flew into the magic array in front.

Before long, a burst of fluctuation suddenly appeared in the magic array in front, revealing a square gate two or three feet wide, and two sword lights flew out from inside and landed in front of Song Song Qingming and the two.

"Pay respects to the patriarch, ancestor!"

"No need to be polite, get up quickly!"

Song Song Qingming glanced at the two who were bowing and saluting, and found that it was the family's Foundation Establishment elders Liu Liu Yuxin and Song Song Xuanling, and hurriedly waved his hand to signal the two to get up.

Afterwards, they entered this second-tier mid-grade spiritual vein, which didn't look very eye-catching from the outside, under the guidance of the two Liu Liu Yuxin.

This spiritual vein located next to the "Golden Water River" was specially cultivated by the Song family three years ago, and its purpose was to cover up the "cave dwelling at the bottom of the pool" located below the spiritual vein.

Therefore, besides the two family elders Liu Liu Yuxin and Song Song Xuanling, the family did not arrange other cultivators to guard this place! Under the active guidance of Liu Liu Yuxin, Song Song Qingming and Huang Huang Siyuan soon came to the deep part of the water pool below the spiritual vein and saw Song Song Qingyu who was sitting in meditation and practicing inside.

"Sister-in-law, eh... Seventh Brother! When did you come back? Why didn't Song Yuanfang and the others send a letter to inform me, making me worry about you blindly here every day!"

Seeing Song Song Qingming and the two suddenly come to the "cave dwelling at the bottom of the pool," Song Song Qingyu also walked over happily and greeted the two.

Hearing this, Song Song Qingming smiled and shook his head lightly: "You are blaming Song Yuanfang wrongly, I just came back, and I haven't had time to see him before coming straight to you."

"So that's it, I said why I didn't receive any news." Song Song Qingyu nodded slightly, then ordered Liu Liu Yuxin on the side, and turned to lead the two into the cave dwelling behind her.

This "cave dwelling at the bottom of the pool" has been carefully managed by Song Song Qingyu in the past few years and has become much better-looking than before, and the surroundings are already filled with all kinds of household spiritual items.

Just after walking into the cave dwelling, Song Song Qingming felt a burst of relatively pure spiritual power coming, and his eyes immediately focused on a tightly closed stone gate not far in front of him.

Seeing Song Song Qingming walking in front suddenly stop and close his eyes to release his spiritual sense, Song Song Qingyu and Huang Huang Siyuan didn't dare to step forward to disturb him.

After the two looked at each other, they immediately bypassed Song Song Qingming from the side and came to a stone table on the side and sat down.

After a long while, when Song Song Qingming came back to his senses and took back his spiritual sense, he smelled the tea fragrance coming from the side, and walked towards Huang Huang Siyuan and the two with a smile.

"Seventh Brother! I have been guarding here every day recently and haven't felt anything unusual. Did you see any abnormality just now? Is Song Changze going smoothly inside, and how much certainty is there for Jin Dan formation?"

Putting a cup of freshly boiled spiritual tea in front of Song Song Qingming, Song Song Qingyu immediately asked, urgently wanting to know the information Song Song Qingming got in his heart.

Seeing the two women beside him looking at him curiously, Song Song Qingming directly spread his hands to the two with a smile, and then replied: "Wanting to sense the situation of the dantian in the cultivator's body through the spiritual energy of heaven and earth inside the cave dwelling, it is certainly impossible without the spiritual sense of a Nascent Soul cultivator."

"Although my cultivation is stronger than yours, my spiritual sense is not yet strong enough to be compared with Nascent Soul cultivators, so how can I see how much certainty Song Changze has for Jin Dan formation!"

"Just now I was just sensing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth inside the cave dwelling, wanting to see if he failed the Jin Dan formation from it!"

"Now the spiritual energy inside is a bit restless, but it is still stable. If there is no accident, he should not have reached the step of condensing the elixir, and it will take some time to determine."

"Oh! Since Song Changze hasn't failed yet, then it can be considered a good thing for us."

"As the saying goes, things are unpredictable. This child's perseverance in practice is no worse than ours. Maybe he really has a chance to succeed in Jin Dan formation at once, and it's not certain that he will do better than us."

In the cultivation world, besides Heavenly Spirit Root cultivators like Bai Bai Yuxian, very few Foundation Establishment cultivators can succeed in Jin Dan formation at once.

Like Song Song Qingming and these Jin Dan cultivators with three or four spiritual roots, most of them have experienced two or even three or more impacts on the Jin Dan realm before finally succeeding in Jin Dan formation and stepping into the Jin Dan Great Dao.

Although Song Song Changze's spiritual root talent is no worse than Song Song Qingming and the others, he is after all going into seclusion for Jin Dan formation for the first time. Even if he doesn't succeed in Jin Dan formation this time, in the view of Song Song Qingming and the others, it is also an extremely normal thing.

However, as Song Song Qingyu said, personal cultivation is unpredictable. Perhaps Song Changze's opportunity has arrived, and it is not certain that he can succeed in breaking through the Jin Dan bottleneck at once like Yun Nishang a few years ago.

After checking Song Changze's situation, Song Song Qingming chatted with Song Song Qingyu in the "cave dwelling at the bottom of the pool" for a while, and simply told her about the things he encountered when he went to the "Leiyuan Sea" cultivation world.

Learning that Song Song Qingming had exchanged for a "Nascent Soul Formation Elixir" this time, Song Song Qingyu was also happy for him and couldn't help but raise her cup to congratulate him.

After congratulating Song Song Qingming and the two with a smile, Song Song Qingyu, who seemed to have thought of something, suddenly asked Song Song Qingming: "Seventh Brother, now that you have obtained the Nascent Soul Formation Elixir, if you really form a Nascent Soul in the future, the sect will probably not sit idly by. How should we deal with this matter in the future, have you thought about it?"

Hearing Song Song Qingyu's inquiry, Song Song Qingming and Huang Huang Siyuan, who were still smiling just now, also slowly put away the joy on their faces and slowly restored a bit of calmness.

After being silent for a moment, Song Song Qingming restored a smile again:

"Song Qingyu, to tell you the truth, although I got a Nascent Soul Formation Elixir, I don't have much certainty in my heart about condensing the Nascent Soul now!."

"You also know that even a person with top-notch talent like Senior Sister Bai cannot succeed in Nascent Soul formation at once, so how can I have such confidence."

"I think, even if I can really reach the Nascent Soul realm in the future, it will not be so easy."

"At least, this Nascent Soul Formation Elixir is definitely far from enough."

"However! Although these things you said are still a bit far away, we indeed need to consider them now."

"Whether it is Song Changze or me, the opportunities of heaven are unpredictable."

"Until the last moment, who can absolutely guess the final result? Even if the hope of breaking through successfully is slim, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, fate is not impossible to change."

After obtaining the "Nascent Soul Formation Elixir," plus the "Thunder Nascent Fruit" and "Spirit Heart Jade Plate," Song Song Qingming already had three spiritual items to assist in Nascent Soul formation on him.

When Yao Yao Qianshu and Bai Bai Yuxian of the "Xiaoyao Sect" impacted the Nascent Soul realm back then, they didn't have more than one or two Nascent Soul formation spiritual items provided by the sect. Song Song Qingming's net worth is already no worse than theirs.

Although even so, Song Song Qingming couldn't guarantee that he could succeed in Nascent Soul formation at once, the hope of breaking through successfully was finally much greater than before, which also gave him a lot of confidence in his heart.

If it really happens as Song Song Qingyu said, and he luckily advances to the Nascent Soul realm at once.

Then Song Song Qingming and the Song family must carefully consider how to handle the relationship between the family and the sect that is close at hand.

It was not only Song Song Qingyu who thought of this problem in advance. On the way back from the "Leiyuan Sea," Song Song Qingming actually had some thoughts in his heart.

After tasting the spiritual tea on the table, Song Song Qingming, who put down the teacup gently, continued: "If, I mean if! If I really break through to the Nascent Soul realm in the future, and the sect does not tolerate this matter, I want to move the family away from Wei Country."

"Whether it is Uncle-Master Li or Uncle-Master Bai, what they seek is at most for the sect. As long as the family does not touch the interests of the sect, I think they should not make things difficult for us for this."

"This is just an idea in my heart for now, and the specific situation needs to be planned slowly in the future. If you have any good ideas in your heart, you can also say them directly now. Let's think about it together, and there will always be a way to solve this matter."

After finishing speaking, Song Song Qingming sighed slightly in his mouth. Although he didn't want to leave his hometown with the family in the future, some things in the cultivation world are indeed not what Song Song Qingming wants to be.

If the Song family is still a Jin Dan immortal clan, no matter what changes the family has, they can only be attached to the powerful "Xiaoyao Sect," and the sect naturally will not worry that the Song family will pose any threat to them.

Once Song Song Qingming really breaks through to the Nascent Soul realm, and the Song family has an extra Nascent Soul cultivator out of thin air, the situation will be completely different from now on.

Advancing to a Nascent Soul family, the Song family is equivalent to having the ability to stand on equal footing with the "Xiaoyao Sect."

Even if the Song family is willing to maintain the existing relationship, the "Xiaoyao Sect" cannot dare to treat them as they did in the past. After all, the Song family has already posed a substantial threat to the sect.

As the saying goes, how can others be allowed to snore on the side of the couch? No matter what the Song family thinks in the future, the "Xiaoyao Sect" certainly cannot tolerate a fierce tiger like the Song family sleeping beside them.

After a long time, the two tigers will fight, and I am afraid there must be one injury.

To avoid the conflict between the family and the sect in the future, the best way is the same as what Song Song Qingming thought, to prepare a reliable retreat for the family in advance.

As long as they are willing to take the initiative to withdraw, the Song family will no longer be a threat to the sect after leaving Wei Country, and the "Xiaoyao Sect" naturally doesn't need to make things difficult for the Song family.

As for how to take away the assets left behind after the family leaves or hand them over to the sect, these are all things that can be slowly discussed with the "Xiaoyao Sect" in the future.

Song Song Qingming's voice just fell, and Song Song Qingyu nodded immediately: "Hmm! Seventh Brother, actually you think the same as I do."

"Although it is not easy for the family to develop to this point, it will not be easy to lose so many family industries and start again after moving away from Wei Country, and everyone's life in the future will probably not be as good as it is now."

"But as long as we are all here, no matter what the family loses, we can earn it back slowly!"

Huang Huang Siyuan nodded and echoed: "Song Qingyu is right! If Wei Country cannot accommodate us, we can move the family to the East Sea."

"I also know many fellow Daoists in the East Sea cultivation world, and it is not difficult to find a place for the family to stay temporarily."

"Husband, don't worry about this matter and affect your practice. As long as you can successfully advance to the Nascent Soul realm, with the three of us, it will be enough to protect the family in the future."

Compared with the large sects in the Fuyun Mountain Range cultivation world, there is no obvious national boundary division in the East Sea cultivation world, and large loose cultivator alliances or family forces are everywhere.

The large cultivation sects there basically only care about their own one-third of an acre of sea area. Having one or two more cultivation families or loose cultivator forces around their territory will not have much impact on them.

Huang Huang Siyuan has often gone to the East Sea cultivation world over the years, so she is very clear about the situation there.

Hearing that Song Song Qingming and Song Song Qingyu had the idea of moving the family away from Wei Country in the future, she also immediately expressed her approval and took the initiative to put forward her own ideas and opinions.

Regarding this, Song Song Qingming and the two didn't open their mouths to oppose. If the family really reached this day, what Huang Huang Siyuan said would definitely be what they could use.

Hearing the comfort of the two women, Song Song Qingming nodded and responded: "Don't worry, no matter how many hardships we have to experience in the future, I will not easily shake my own Taoist heart."

"If I can't reach the Nascent Soul realm in this life to see the scenery under my feet, I am not reconciled to say anything."

"I sincerely hope that the three of us can go further in cultivation, and we don't have to live these days of worry and fear in the future."

"Wait until the family is strong enough, and we don't have to worry about these trivial matters behind us. By then, the three of us can go out together and see more of the beautiful scenery in this world."

"That's good! Just follow Seventh Brother's words, we must travel all over the five continents and four seas and become immortals!"

After Song Song Qingyu's voice fell, the three smiled knowingly and raised the teacups in their hands.

After chatting in the "cave dwelling at the bottom of the pool" for several hours, Song Song Qingming and Huang Huang Siyuan reluctantly bid farewell and left.

After the two left "Cangyuan Mountain," they went east and soon arrived at "Baishi Market," and then returned to "Chiyan Market" in an instant by taking the teleportation magic array.

In recent years, because Song Song Qingming went into seclusion to try to break through the realm, and also made a special trip to the "Leiyuan Sea" cultivation world, he had never had time to walk around with Huang Huang Siyuan.

Walking on the street of "Chiyan Market," Song Song Qingming, who wanted to accompany the other party, simply slowed down his pace deliberately and strolled around the market with Huang Huang Siyuan for a while.

Until the sunset slowly fell on the horizon, the two returned to the top of "Mount Funiu Mountain" facing the afterglow of the sunset.

After returning to the family, Song Song Qingming sent a letter to call Song Song Yuanfang, who was managing the family, over.

First, he learned about some things that happened in the family in the past two years, and then ordered Song Song Yuanfang to help send the spirit stones he owed Xu Wu Ziyuan to "Mount Guyang Mountain."

After explaining some affairs to Song Song Yuanfang and others, Song Song Qingming, who had not returned to "Mount Funiu Mountain" for long, soon locked himself in the cave dwelling again, preparing to start seclusion and practice with concentration.

Song Song Qingming's cultivation had already reached the peak of the eighth layer of Jin Dan, and he had originally been ready to go into seclusion to break through his cultivation.

It was just because he received the news from the sect to go to the "Leiyuan Sea" to participate in the trading session, in order not to delay this trip, Song Song Qingming had to stop practicing and come out of seclusion in advance.

Now that he had handled the things at hand, Song Song Qingming finally had time to concentrate on seclusion and practice, impacting the ninth layer of Jin Dan bottleneck.

Although breaking through the ninth layer of Jin Dan is not a major realm, this last layer of bottleneck in the Jin Dan realm is no easier than when Song Song Qingming broke through the late stage of Jin Dan back then.

Song Song Qingming, who had just gone into seclusion, didn't rush to impact the bottleneck in his body, but began to run the magic power in his body to continuously enter and exit the dantian for polishing.

He planned to wait until his own magic power was polished to be very smooth, and then try to drive it to impact the bottleneck in his body, which could slightly reduce the difficulty of impacting the bottleneck.

This method of polishing and refining magic power was a good way to impact the cultivation bottleneck that Song Song Qingming realized from the set of Nascent Soul cultivator cultivation insights he obtained through the "Tongtian Pavilion" trial in the Tongtian Tower back then.

Over the years, whenever he was not smooth in impacting the bottleneck in his body, Song Song Qingming tried to use this method to assist himself in breaking through the realm.

It's just that although this method has some effects, it is not as obvious as the help brought by spiritual items that assist cultivators in breaking through. Most of the time, when Song Song Qingming impacts his own cultivation realm bottleneck, he still needs the assistance of elixirs and spiritual items.

After concentrating on polishing his own magic power for more than a year, Song Song Qingming, feeling that his own state had reached the best realm, finally took out a third-tier mid-grade spiritual elixir and threw it directly into his mouth.

As the spiritual elixir erupted with a powerful spiritual

After reaching this step, there was not a trace of hesitation left in Song Song Qingming's heart, and the spiritual power within his body rapidly began to pour madly into his meridians.

Half a year later, above a cave dwelling on the summit of Mount Mount Funiu that was shrouded by a formation, a five-colored spiritual light suddenly appeared.

However, due to the concealment of the formation, this five-colored spiritual light only flickered once before quickly submerging into a bank of clouds and mist.

Apart from a few birds that had been resting nearby being startled away, no one noticed the anomaly that had just occurred in the sky.

Huang Huang Siyuan, who was in seclusion in her cave dwelling, also felt some unusual fluctuations in the surrounding spiritual energy at this moment; having finished her cultivation, she hurriedly walked out of her cave to investigate.

When she discovered that this anomaly was coming from Song Song Qingming's cave dwelling not far away, a trace of joy immediately appeared on Huang Huang Siyuan's face.

Huang Huang Siyuan then quickly took out a sound-transmission talisman to tell Song Song Yuanfang and the others at the foot of the mountain to increase their vigilance, before turning back to her own cave with peace of mind.

A few days later, a sound finally came from outside the gate of Song Song Qingming's cave dwelling, which had been silent for a long time.

Before long, following a flicker of spiritual light at the cave entrance, a young man dressed in green appeared out of thin air in the open space at the entrance.

Having been in seclusion for a long time, Song Song Qingming reached out to feel the long-lost sunlight, and a smile immediately appeared on his face; he then flashed over to a giant rock above the cave and sat down.

Having spent nearly two years in seclusion, Song Song Qingming had finally, as expected, broken through the final bottleneck of the Core Formation stage and successfully advanced to the ninth layer of the Jin Dan realm.

Next, as long as he could take one more step forward, it would be the Nascent Soul realm that Song Song Qingming had dreamed of for so many years of cultivation.

From breaking through to the Jin Dan realm until now, only a little over a hundred years had passed, and Song Song Qingming had already successfully cultivated to the ninth layer of the Jin Dan.

For Song Song Qingming, whose lifespan was still relatively abundant, there were still more than two hundred years to slowly attempt to break through to the Nascent Soul realm, and there was still a great chance he could stand on a more distant mountain peak to admire the beauty of the world.

Just as Song Song Qingming was sitting on the summit looking at the scenery below the mountain with thoughts in his mind, a white light suddenly flashed past him, and a white figure soon appeared on the summit.

"Seeing spiritual energy fluctuations near your cave dwelling a few days ago, I guessed there must be good news; I didn't expect you to successfully emerge from seclusion today.

I am here to congratulate you on successfully breaking through to the ninth layer of the Jin Dan!" (End of chapter)
