Chapter 352: Four Seas Gang

Longyun Mountain is more than a thousand miles away from Guiyun Market and is already on the edge of the Fuyun Mountain Range. In order to hide his tracks well, Song Qingming did not fly with his sword the whole way this time, and it took him several hours more than his usual travel speed to quietly arrive here.

This mountain was originally a first-level medium-grade spiritual vein, and all kinds of low-level demon beasts were entrenched in the vicinity all year round. After the demon beast turmoil decades ago, taking advantage of the fact that many demon beasts around the Fuyun Mountain Range died in the turmoil, several Qi Refining stage rogue cultivators joined forces to occupy this mountain when there were no demon beasts on Longyun Mountain, opening up cave dwellings to cultivate here all year round.

Unfortunately, good times did not last long. Before a few years had passed, many demon beasts began to gradually migrate south from the depths of the Fuyun Mountain Range. Overnight, the vicinity of this spiritual mountain was re-occupied by the demon beasts that had infiltrated. Those few rogue cultivators, unable to bear the long-term harassment of the numerous demon beasts, could only take the initiative to abandon their cave dwellings and leave this mountain.

Now, Longyun Mountain, because there are many demon beasts entrenched here, although there are few people nearby, it can still occasionally attract some rogue cultivator demon-hunting teams to come here to search for demon beasts.

Song Qingming carefully stood in a relatively hidden place at the foot of the mountain and hid his figure. When he first arrived here, he had already observed the surroundings of this spiritual mountain for half a day, and he didn't even see a shadow of a person. He didn't know whether the cultivators of the Four Seas Gang he was looking for were still in the vicinity.

Just as Song Qingming was carefully observing the surroundings, suddenly, beside a small hill opposite Longyun Mountain, two somewhat sneaky figures appeared.

Seeing someone appear nearby, Song Qingming hurriedly put on the Spirit-Hiding Shirt and carefully followed behind the two, to see where they would go.

I saw these two carefully avoiding the demon beasts nearby. After walking for dozens of steps into a forest under the small hill, the figures of these two suddenly disappeared into a green wood forest.

Song Qingming, who was following behind, did not show much surprise when he saw this scene, directly put away the Spirit-Hiding Shirt, and slowly revealed his figure.

"Haha! I said that I had wandered around Longyun Mountain for half a day and didn't see any shadows of people. So they were hiding here."

The purpose of Song Qingming's trip down the mountain this time was naturally to find a suitable object for Wind Crane to possess. The reason he set his sights on this group of people from the Four Seas Gang was that he heard that there was a person with good spiritual roots among these rogue cultivators.

The Four Seas Gang, like the Fire Wolf Gang that Song Qingming saw when he saved Shi Chun, is a rogue cultivator organization that mixes around the Fuyun Mountain Range. These people, relying on their large numbers, often bully those rogue cultivator demon-hunting teams that enter the Fuyun Mountain Range, snatching the demon beast corpses or spiritual items they worked hard to obtain.

Such rogue cultivator organizations do not like to go and fight for their lives with demon beasts, always thinking of relying on snatching others to survive. Some have a bottom line in their actions, only snatching spiritual items and not harming people's lives, while some with poor bottom lines and bad reputations are basically no different from those bandit cultivators in Eagle Nest Ridge.

For these rogue cultivator organizations that are not very obedient and often cause trouble, Guiyun Market is naturally not welcoming. On the contrary, some rogue cultivator organizations with bad names will appear on the wanted list issued by Guiyun Market.

It is precisely because of this reason that Song Qingming felt that these people were a very good object to start with. These people are all on the wanted list of Guiyun Market. Even if they are killed directly outside, no one in the Wei State will come out to pursue this matter.

After leaving Mount Funiu, Song Qingming went directly to Guiyun Market and began to inquire about the news of these rogue cultivator forces on the wanted list in secret.

The leader of the Four Seas Gang is a Qi Refining ninth-level cultivator named Wang Sihai. Although this person is from a rogue cultivator background, his cultivation speed is very fast, and he had already cultivated to the ninth level of Qi Refining before he was fifty years old. It is rumored that this person is very likely a dual spiritual root cultivator with outstanding spiritual roots.

When Wang Sihai first entered the Dao in his early years, he once married into a Qi Refining family. After having a stable spiritual land, his cultivation base improved very quickly. But because of his status as a son-in-law, he was never trusted in the family and his status was extremely low. In anger, he abandoned his Daoist partner and left that family to become a rogue cultivator again, and since then he began to mix around Guiyun Market.

More than ten years ago, Wang Sihai's cultivation base broke through to the late stage of Qi Refining, and he established the Four Seas Gang with a few like-minded people, originally wanting to make friends from all over the world and go out to hunt demon beasts together.

It's a pity that he thought too simply. Since the establishment of the Four Seas Gang, it has been repeatedly squeezed out by surrounding rogue cultivator forces and gangs. Wang Sihai is also a person who is unwilling to suffer losses. After several fights, the Four Seas Gang offended many people and it was difficult to gain a foothold in Guiyun Market.

In a rage, Wang Sihai simply took his brothers and left Guiyun Market, beginning to mix in the Fuyun Mountain Range. In order to survive and cultivate, besides hunting demon beasts daily, these people also began to take action against other rogue cultivators who entered the Fuyun Mountain Range. Over time, the Four Seas Gang and Wang Sihai and others all ended up on the wanted list of Guiyun Market.

After detecting the place where the Four Seas Gang was hiding, Song Qingming no longer hid his tracks, walked out swaggeringly, and went directly into that forest.

Before, seeing those two people walk here and suddenly disappear, Song Qingming also saw that this place had been hidden by a formation.

Although this concealment formation is somewhat exquisite and can deceive the low-level demon beasts nearby, in front of Song Qingming, a second-level formation master, it still seemed somewhat insufficient.

"Knowing how to set up a Phantom Formation, it seems there is also a formation master among these guys!"

Song Qingming observed the surroundings patiently, muttered to himself, directly took out a few formation flags he carried with him from his storage bag, inserted them into the formation eyes around, and began to prepare to set up a method to break the formation.

"This senior, please do not destroy the great formation we have set up. May I ask what instructions you have? Please tell us directly, so that we can solve your worries."

Song Qingming had just started to cast spells when he saw this green wood forest suddenly blur, revealing another scene. Song Qingming looked carefully and realized that it was the cultivator who controlled the Phantom Formation inside who took the initiative to lift this phantom formation.

Not long after, seven or eight figures walked out from the side, walked quickly to Song Qingming, and bowed to salute.

Among these people, the leader was a middle-aged man in blue clothes. Song Qingming looked at this person and found that he looked somewhat different from Wang Sihai on the wanted list of Guiyun Market, so he asked: "Are you people from the Four Seas Gang?"

Facing Song Qingming, who was wearing a bamboo hat and could not see his face clearly, the blue-clothed cultivator answered somewhat nervously: "We are indeed from the Four Seas Gang. I don't know what instructions you have for coming here to find us, Senior."

"Are you Wang Sihai? Why do you look somewhat unlike him!"
