In the quiet night, the breeze blew across the lake, causing ripples, and the dense branches and leaves of Green Plum Tree also made a rustling sound.
Under the bright white moonlight, Song Changsheng sat by the lake, quietly watching the stars in the sky. They were like gems, dotted in the dark night, emitting brilliant light.
He often wonders if there is a sun named "Sun" among the stars in the sky. If there is, he really wants to go and see it.
After all, in a sense, it was his home. Although he didn't like it very much, he still missed him a little after being away for a long time...
Suddenly, he felt something cooing in his arms. When he looked down, he found that the girl who was sleeping soundly in his arms had changed into a more comfortable position.
There were still clear traces of tears on her little face, but at this moment she showed a peaceful smile, as if she had had a beautiful dream.
"I'll take you home first. If I have a chance, I'd like to go home and have a look."
A smile appeared on Song Changsheng's face, and his gaze towards the sky gradually became firmer. The pursuit of strength is not necessarily just for Changsheng. He can also return home in glory, right?
The two figures, one large and one small, spent the long and silent night like this. When the red sun emerged from the horizon, Song Qingxing, who was all wet, finally returned with his sword in hand.
Looking at Song Qingxi who was still sleeping soundly, there was a slight fluctuation in his eyes. After a while, he held back a sentence and said, "It's easy to catch a cold like this."
"Huh?" Song Changsheng immediately cast a surprised look at him, as if it was the first time he met him.
Perhaps realizing the problem in his sentence, Song Qingxing immediately changed the subject and asked, "When will we set off?"
Song Changsheng glanced at Song Qingxi who was still lying in bed and said, "We will leave when Xi'er wakes up. Besides..."
The conversation suddenly changed. He looked at Song Qingxing's clothes that were still dripping with water, and said with a joking smile on his face, "You should go change some clothes first, so as not to catch a cold."
Song Qingxing suddenly felt that his face became a little stiff. Fortunately, he had always had the same Zombie face, so there was no obvious change.
He nodded lightly and said, "Okay."
Watching him walk into Thatched Hut, the corners of Song Changsheng's mouth curled up slightly. This guy seems to be different from before. Is this a complete enlightenment?
It wasn't until three o'clock in the morning that Song Qingxi woke up like a lazy kitten. Seeing Song Changsheng hugging herself in an awkward posture, she suddenly realized what she had done.
"Are you awake? How old are you? You're still the same as when you were a child." Song Changsheng complained in a nonchalant manner.
This made Song Qingxi's little face turn slightly red, and he quickly stood up and said, "I'm going to pack my things."
Seeing her anxious look, Song Changsheng smiled slightly, "It's true that she has grown up and is now shy."
He stood up unsteadily and stretched out comfortably. His bones suddenly made a crackling sound, and he felt comfortable all over.
He stretched out his finger and tapped it on the lake. Among the ripples, a fish head poked out of the water and looked at him with wide eyes.
"I'm leaving soon. These two little guys are also leaving with me. There is a high probability that they will not come back. Several clan elders at the foot of the mountain are old. I will leave this Clear Mirror Lake and this Thatched Hut to your care.
Although it is a bit weak, it is still Second-Tier Low-Grade Fish King, which should be enough to deter ordinary predators. "Song Changsheng touched its smooth head and said gently.
Spirit Fish King showed a trace of confusion in his huge eyes, as if he was wondering why he didn't come back.
"It's not like I won't come back, so I'm asking you to keep an eye on me. Don't worry, it will be beneficial."
Song Changsheng smiled, took out a white porcelain bottle from Storage Bag and said, "There are a total of ten grains [Gathering Yuan Pill] in this. They can help you practice, so this is your reward."
With that said, he threw the porcelain bottle into the lake.
Spirit Fish King showed excitement in his eyes, and he quickly spit out a bubble to wrap the porcelain bottle, and then swallowed it in one gulp.
"One pill at a time. If you take too much, you will die." Song Changsheng reminded solemnly.
This scene seems a bit funny. A man is actually making a serious deal with a fish. The key is that the fish seems to understand.
It's not that Song Changsheng has nothing to do, but he feels that this Spirit Fish King has the potential to continue to transform.
There are many kinds of Demon Beast in this world, but their achievements are basically fixed when they are born, because they rely on blood for inheritance.
The stronger the bloodline, the higher Demon Beast's future achievements will naturally be, and vice versa.
This Spirit Fish King is Silver Thread Fish. The bloodline of this kind of fish belongs to the lowest level. Generally speaking, the second level is the limit.
Moreover, due to its low bloodline, even if it breaks through the second level, its strength is very low, and it can kill the slightly stronger Qi Condensation Cultivator.
Therefore, this kind of Spirit Fish is generally raised as a low-level food.
Even if this Spirit Fish King breaks through the second level, it can only be regarded as a higher-end ingredient.
But this one of Clear Mirror Lake is obviously different from Taiyi. First of all, its intelligence is very high, far beyond the ordinary Second-Tier Demonic Beast. Moreover, it has also mastered some strange abilities.
In layman's terms, it means mutation, and for this phenomenon, Demon Beast has a professional term - atavism.
This is undoubtedly a good thing, but Silver Thread Fish is really too weak, so weak that Song Changsheng can't even remember any powerful Demon Beast in its ancestors.
But that's not important. What Song Changsheng is interested in is its potential, and it hopes to break through the potential of Third-Tier.
No matter what kind of Demon Beast it is, once it breaks through Third-Tier, its strength will undergo earth-shaking changes. By then, Song Clan will also be considered to have a guardian Spirit Beast.
This is a very long-term investment, and it may not be able to pay back.
At this time, Song Qingxi and the others had almost packed up their things. They had also dug out the Mist Concealment Tea Tree among the Spirit Field, and picked all the mature spirit medicine.
Even the Green Plum Tree that had advanced to become Spirit Plant was not let go, and was completely absorbed into Storage Bag.
"Is everything packed?" Song Changsheng asked with a smile.
Song Qingxi looked back at Thatched Hut, with a trace of reluctance in his eyes. He nodded lightly and said, "Everything is packed."
"Then, let's set off." Song Changsheng snapped his fingers, and a Flying Boat that was more than ten feet long suddenly appeared on the island.
"What a big Flying Boat, is this yours?" Song Qingxi opened her mouth in surprise. In comparison, her Paper Kite was really childish.
Song Changsheng nodded shamelessly.
It took him a long time to find Fourth Elder Song Luhai when he went down the mountain. Although he said he was borrowing it at the time, he didn't say when he would return it. After rounding off, wouldn't it be his?
After everyone boarded Flying Boat, Song Changsheng painfully embedded a dozen Mid-Grade Spirit Stones on Flying Boat's Drive Core. Flying Boat's huge body suddenly became active and flew in the direction of the Heavenly Sword Sect...
At the same time that Song Changsheng and others set off, in a mortal village under a big mountain in Bianzhou, a fat man with a big belly and fair skin was packing his bags with a sad face, as if he was going on a long trip.
It's just that when others travel far away, they always bring clothes, food, daily necessities and so on.
But what this fat man brought was various bottles and cans, with the words "cumin" and "clove" vaguely visible on them.
"Hey, old man, do you have to go? There's a war going on over there. What if you can't go back?" After cleaning up, Little Fatty sat beside the bed and complained to a figure at the door.
At the door was an old man with a thin body and a childlike face. He was wearing a patched gray robe, his hair was messy, he was holding a simple long sword in his arms, and he was leaning listlessly against the door frame.
Hearing Little Fatty's complaint, he stretched out his fingers and picked his nose and said, "It's none of our business what they're doing. We just went to the Heavenly Sword Sect to pick up something. When we're done, we'll leave Great Qi Cultivation World.
Don't you always clamor to go to the master's gate to visit? This time I will fulfill your wish and take you back to pay homage to the ancestor. "
When Little Fatty heard the reply "Master", his eyes suddenly lit up, just like the two Night-Shining Pearl.
He couldn't wait to shout loudly, "Then let's go back directly. Why else Heavenly Sword Sect? I said it when I got started, I don't practice swordsmanship, so don't worry about that monument."
Hearing this, a sneer appeared on the old man's face and he said, "It's not up to you. My disciple, Mo Zhexian, doesn't know how to use a sword. How can he be laughed at if he says it?"
"Come on, I don't dare to say that I am your apprentice. I still want to live for hundreds or thousands of years.
Besides, for sword training, you go to Yun He. Don't you admire him very much? Can't you accept him as my junior disciple? "Little Fatty said unceremoniously.
Hearing this, the old man shook his head and said, "Xu Yunhe, that guy is not bad, but he is too upright and has no chance to belong to our sect."
"Oh, you mean I'm not straight? That's not what you said when you begged me to become your disciple. It's only been a few years..."
Listening to Little Fatty's constant murmurs, the old man also felt a little impatient. He picked up Little Fatty and said, "This matter is not up to you, Heavenly Sword Sect must go!"
Little Fatty suddenly let out a cry, "Old Song, help!"
"A sneeze"
Song Changsheng, who was standing on Flying Boat, sneezed twice inexplicably.
"What's going on? You're not really catching a cold, are you?" Song Changsheng rubbed his nose and thought vaguely.
"Is this Yang Province? It is said that Blazing Sun Sect's base camp is here." Song Qingxi stared at the red mountains below with her big eyes. It felt very novel. This was her first time traveling far away.
"Yes, their lair is in that direction, but they don't have time to take care of us now, so it saves some trouble."
"How long until we get to the Heavenly Sword Sect?"
Song Changsheng calculated in his mind. "If we take Flying Boat, it will take at least two or three months. After all, we have to cross the entire Yang Province and Xiangzhou to finally reach Xuzhou."
"It will take so long." Song Qingxi suddenly felt a little boring, and his bright eyes were a little dim. After all, the space for activities on Flying Boat was limited, and there was nothing to relieve his boredom. It was very boring.
"It's only three months. It goes by very quickly after practicing. You have been a little slack in your recent practice." Song Changsheng smiled, and then walked into Ship Cabin.
Since discovering that [Primal Chaos Qi] can be used as dharma power, Song Changsheng has been trying to practice Minor Divine Ability.
Sure enough, as Song Xianming said, dharma power is the key to practicing Minor Divine Ability. With the blessing of [Primal Chaos Qi], his cultivation of [Mountain Overturning Seal] finally touched the threshold, and the progress of mastering it is very fast. If this continues, it won't be long before he has another trump card...
On the way to the Heavenly Sword Sect and Song Changsheng, Sunset City and City Lord's Mansion looked solemn. The expressions of the two elders Qianri and Qianyue were also very solemn.
"Is the news reliable? This is no joke." Elder Qianri looked at the Sunset City disciple in front of him who was reporting the news, with a serious tone.
The disciple nodded firmly and said, "It is indeed the trace left by Blood Demon. It is six hundred miles away from North City. It is initially judged that the two sides fighting are Purple Palace Cultivator. The battle was very tragic."
Elder Qianri's eyebrows suddenly furrowed. Sunset City had not found any trace of Blood Demon's activities for a long time since the last attack on the auction. Why did Blood Demon of Purple Palace Stage suddenly appear now? What is their purpose this time? Will it threaten Sunset City?
"Anyway, this level of Blood Demon is no longer something we can handle. Please inform Second City Lord." Elder Qianyue stood up and said.
"That's all." Elder Qianri nodded.
Just when he was about to send his disciples there, a middle-aged man walked in quickly and said in a panic, "Two elders, it's not good."
"Why are you panicking?" Elder Qianri scolded dissatisfiedly, showing how unbecoming he was in a panic.
The middle-aged man swallowed hard and said solemnly, "Two elders, there is something strange about Demon Beast among the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains."
"What?" Elder Qianri's eyes suddenly became sharp. He had never shown this look when he learned that Purple Palace Stage Blood Demon was out Sunset City.
"What's going on? Tell me carefully."
"The news was first reported by Rogue Cultivator named Xu Yunhe. He said that when Hundred Thousand Great Mountains was practicing, he found that the Demon Beast on the outside were migrating inward, and he heard Great Demon roaring from time to time. He suspected that this was a precursor to the formation of Beast Tide.
After getting the news, the disciple immediately sent people to investigate Hundred Thousand Great Mountains. As a result, the three Foundation Establishment Cultivator troops were wiped out and no news came back. "The middle-aged man said hastily, with a trace of fear on his face.
The two elders looked at each other and saw the horror in each other's eyes.
Elder Qianri made a decision immediately. "I will report to the city lord immediately, junior brother, and immediately order the disciples who are outside to return immediately."
"Okay."
After getting the news, Zhan Tianxia immediately decided to go deep into the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains to find out personally!
After he left, Mu Guibai stood on top of Heavenly Sound Mountain, quietly looking at the rolling Hundred Thousand Great Mountains.
After a long time, Zhuang Yuechan heard him whisper softly, "The wind is blowing..."
