Chapter 121: Mugu Town

~8 min read 1,546 words

"An old friend from the Profound Heaven Sect, did you meet her when you were in Guiyun Market?"

Hearing that Song Qingming was going on a long journey, Song Changfeng did not agree to him immediately but asked with some concern.

"I did meet her in Guiyun Market. When I was in the Flying Cloud Guard, she was the captain of the Flying Cloud Guard. She took good care of me at that time. Later, when I left Guiyun Market, she had already returned to the Profound Heaven Sect. I heard that she later succeeded in establishing her foundation. I don't know if she still remembers me when we meet again." After Song Qingming finished speaking, he sighed. When they first met, they were both Qi Refining cultivators and could help each other. Now their status is worlds apart.

Hearing that Song Qingming had actually met a Profound Heaven Sect Foundation Establishment senior, Song Changfeng also showed a trace of unexpected surprise. For a small Qi Refining family like the Song family, being able to have some relationship with a Profound Heaven Sect Foundation Establishment cultivator is not a simple matter. If the Song family could have had a relationship with a Foundation Establishment senior hundreds of years ago, they would not have fallen to a small place like Qinghe County.

When the Song family's Foundation Establishment ancestor was still there, he also had many Foundation Establishment friends who were on good terms within the Profound Heaven Sect. It was just that after he sat down, the Song family descendants were squeezed out in the Profound Heaven Sect and went to these seniors for help, but none of them were willing to come out to help them say a word. In the end, they could only helplessly migrate to Qinghe County.

"It's good to go and see if you have time. If this senior is willing to see you, and can help or point you out, it will be a chance for you. Hehe, how much benefit you can get depends on your own good fortune." Seeing that Song Qingming was not confident about this matter, Song Changfeng hurriedly comforted him with a smile.

The old patriarch Song Gushan heard this and shook his head and said: "Qingming, now that the beast unrest has just ended, there are still many small groups of beasts left outside. It is too dangerous for you to travel far now. If things are not so urgent, wait for a period of time until it is stable outside before talking."

"Fourth Uncle is right. Qingming, otherwise you wait first. It is indeed too dangerous outside now." Song Changfeng also nodded and agreed with Song Gushan's opinion.

Seeing that the two elders were so concerned about his safety, Song Qingming did not insist anymore. After all, it was useless for him to be too anxious about some things.

Ever since he obtained the relics of the Profound Heaven Sect cultivator in the deep mountains on the west side of Jinshan Market, Song Qingming did not dare to inform anyone about this matter. For nearly a year, he had been thinking about how to deal with this matter. In the end, he decided to go to the Profound Heaven Sect mountain gate to find some familiar Profound Heaven Sect cultivators to inquire about the situation first and see how he should deal with these things.

For the past year, Song Qingming had also thought about opening it to see what treasures this senior had that brought him a murderous disaster. It was just that the storage bag on that senior and the jade box he took out were both set with very powerful restrictions. When he was in Guiyun Market, Song Qingming had heard that many spiritual objects on large sect cultivators were set with very mysterious restrictions. If he rashly forced to crack them, he might trigger the restrictions above, and it was possible that the Profound Heaven Sect cultivators would find him here soon. By then, he would not be able to explain himself even if he had reason. Therefore, he had always suppressed the curiosity in his heart and did not dare to try to open these things.

The old patriarch's worry is not unreasonable. This beast unrest, just in Qinghe County, now has many various beasts fleeing from Yunwu Mountain. A few days before Song Qingming and the others returned to Funiu Mountain, a group of beasts attacked Lingyuan Mountain, and Patriarch Song Changfeng personally took action to repel these beasts.

Not only beasts, but many bandit cultivators like those at Eagle Nest Ridge also took advantage of the beast unrest to fish in troubled waters. Now the entire northern part of the Wei Kingdom is not very stable. It is difficult to determine whether a few missing cultivators encountered beast attacks or other dangers.

After Ninth Uncle Song Changxin took over the Hidden Gold Pavilion, the rewards for this conscription were soon issued. Everyone who participated in the battle received many spirit stones. Song Qingming contributed a lot in several great battles and received two hundred spirit stones alone. Although he had already saved thousands of spirit stones, no one would think that there were too many spirit stones.

Fifth Aunt Song Changling led people to spend more than ten days around Funiu Mountain and turned around a few times before finally selecting a relatively good position on the side of a branch of Funiu Mountain. After returning, she began to arrange manpower and organize a large number of mortals to build the town first.

Song Qingming also received the task of refining the gathering spirit formation. When he was at Lingyuan Mountain, he helped Sixth Brother Song Qinghe set up a gathering spirit formation, but at that time it was only used to cultivate spiritual fields, and the quality requirements for the gathering spirit formation were not high. He could set it up directly using the ordinary formation flags he refined. This kind of gathering spirit formation is relatively common, and Song Qingming would also set up this kind of formation in his cave dwelling every time he broke through his cultivation.

The quality of the gathering spirit formation he refines now that can cultivate spiritual veins will be much higher. Refining a set of such things will take at least two months. Fortunately, he has the help of the remnant map, and it only took more than ten days to refine the formation flags and formation disks. It was just that in order not to arouse suspicion, he still needed to wait before handing it over to the family.

Soon two months passed, and the new mortal village and town were also built. Fifth Aunt Song Changling and Patriarch Song Changfeng discussed and gave it a name, "Mugu Town," to commemorate the many Gu-generation cultivators who had dedicated their lives to the family over the years.

With the help of several clansmen who knew some formations, Song Qingming spent some effort and finally successfully set up the gathering spirit formation. After the formation began to operate, Song Qingming invested hundreds of spirit stones prepared by the family into the center of the formation. As the gathering spirit formation continuously operated and refined the spirit stones, soon a pure spiritual energy spread from it.

Immediately after, Song Qingming inserted silver formation flags one by one around Mugu Town, and soon set up a medium-grade grand formation. With the continuous supply of spiritual energy in the spiritual vein, this formation can operate 24 hours a day without consuming spirit stones.

Second Sister Song Qingwan searched around Qinghe Market but still could not find a suitable high-grade mountain-protecting grand formation. Finally, she could only find a high-grade formation master of the Huang family to book a set of high-grade grand formations, which would take half a year to refine. Song Qingming could only take out a medium-grade grand formation from the family's Hidden Gold Pavilion and set it up here first.

The Song family did not have many formation masters. With the sitting of the First Elder, the best formation master in the family, and the death of Twelfth Aunt Song Changyun, a formation master, in the Longteng Mountain battle, the only one who could take action to set up formations was Song Qingming himself. For this reason, in the family discussion a few days ago, Song Qingming also raised this point. Now the family urgently needs to cultivate new formation masters.

It is just that the profession of formation master is not very popular. Very few young people are interested in formations. Patriarch Song Changfeng could only increase some family subsidies for formations, which sent a few apprentices to Song Qingming. Among them, the one with the best formation talent is Fourteenth Sister Song Qingsi.

Song Qingsi is only fifteen years old this year, and her cultivation has reached Qi Refining Level 3. After following Song Qingming to learn formations for a few months, she has been able to successfully draw some formation patterns. Her talent in formations should be stronger than Song Qingming's at that time. It is estimated that in at most one or two years, she should be able to become a low-grade formation master.
