Inquiry about immortality

Chapter 2144 Chihua Tree

Relatives or Yu Bei, others have also sang.

The Storm Realm first experienced great changes in heaven and earth, then it was entangled with the Changyou Clan for nearly a thousand years, and recently it experienced the attack of the Siyou Clan. Now it can be said that all the hardships have paid off, and all forces can finally live a peaceful life.

The death of Old Demon Fang only caused a brief ripple in the Storm Realm, and it soon returned to calm.

Not long after, Qingyang Temple sent out invitations again, inviting people of all ethnic groups and sects to participate in the celebration.

As the saying goes, rewards and punishments should be clearly distinguished. The purpose of the last celebration was to punish, while this time it was a commendation ceremony.

That night, the celebration ended successfully in a peaceful atmosphere.

In this war, those who sat in the branch altar and assisted Qin Sang in casting thunder talismans could also be counted as achievements. However, the greatest contributions were made by those who entered the battlefield and faced the Siyou army directly. Among them were mostly demon soldiers, but there were also cultivators from various sects like Huanhen.

In addition, their contributions in previous wars with the Changyou tribe will also be taken into consideration.

The most important rewards are divided into three types. The first is the qualification to serve as an official in the Five Thunder Academy. The second is that forces and cultivators who are unwilling to practice thunder magic can exchange their merits for Qin Sang or other masters to deduce the skills for them. The third, which is what countless people are looking forward to, is the Qingling Qi!

Ever since Qin Sang took away the Qingling Qi from the cracks in the Immortal Mountain, no new Qingling Qi has been born. Now that the Daiyu Immortal Mountain is riddled with holes, Qin Sang dare not act rashly. It can be predicted that those should be the only remaining Qingling Qi.

Qin Sang divided it into two, leaving one part to Qingyang Temple and storing the rest in Wuleiyuan. There are strict regulations on how to use Qingling Qi, supplemented by corresponding rules, imitating the merit system of the Dao Court.

No matter which sect or school one belongs to, as long as one accumulates enough merits, one can exchange them for a wisp of green spiritual energy in the Five Thunder Courtyard.

The Qingling Qi is at the top of the Merit List. Unless there is a war next, it is extremely difficult to exchange merit for Qingling Qi. To some extent, the external environment is too stable, which is also a disadvantage. I wonder if this is the reason why the Dao Court is constantly expanding.

Now it is more about giving everyone a visible hope, allowing everyone to accept the system of merit from the bottom of their hearts and support Qingyang Temple and Wulei Temple.

Of course, if you want to exchange for Qingling Qi as soon as possible, there are shortcuts. You can use the treasures and skills you got in the Immortal Palace to exchange, whether it is fragments or broken treasures. Qin Sang certainly hopes to get more broken treasures like Qianjun Ring and Ziwei Emperor Sword, even if they can be comparable to the three broken treasures he got from Wuxiang Immortal Sect.

Because the overall cultivation level of the Storm Realm is not high enough, the things that the cultivators can do are very limited. For Qin Sang, it cannot create much value. Therefore, the current merit system is still just a prototype. It will be gradually improved as time goes by and the strength of the Storm Realm increases.

The rewards on the merit list will also be gradually increased, and it is not ruled out that there will be treasures more precious than the Qingling Qi in the future until it runs smoothly.

Li Yufu, on behalf of Qin Sang, briefly explained the system of merit to all parties at the celebration, envisioned a bright future for the Storm Realm, and asked for assistance from all parties in building the altar and establishing the Five Thunder Courtyard.

Afterwards, all parties expressed that they had no objection, that the system of merit and virtue was a fair and good governance, and that it was the solid foundation for the revitalization of the Storm Realm, and that they were willing to fully cooperate. They also sent their best talents to support the fundraising of the Five Thunders Academy, and firmly supported the will of the Lord Envoy.

In addition, those tribes and sects that were preparing to move to the outer sea also came to participate in the celebration. They all expressed that although they were in the outer sea, their hearts were still with Wu Lei Yuan, and they would obey the orders of Envoy Qin at any time and in any place.

……

Qingyangguan is a forbidden area.

In the valley, Qin Sang sat cross-legged in front of the stone tablet of Daiyu Fairy Mountain.

The Vermillion Bird flew around the fairy mountain, its eyes full of curiosity. It repeatedly tried to break into the cracks of the fairy mountain, but was stopped by Qin Sang, which made it very dissatisfied.

Qin Sang glanced at it and teased, "Aren't you the one who loves to join in the fun? Last time you claimed to support me, why are you shrinking back and not daring to show your head?"

Zhuque landed on the stone tablet and shrank his head. "That Taoist nun is definitely not someone you can easily mess with. You'd better stay away from her. It would be better for you to be sensible and give your wife to her. Otherwise, you can die, but don't implicate me."

Suzaku has always been extremely courageous, and it is rare to see it so afraid of a person.

Qin Sang looked at it deeply, "How did you compare to her when you were in your prime?"

"He's definitely a hundred times stronger than her!"

Zhuque raised his head high, his eyes full of disdain, "I can kill her with just one wing!"

After learning about Mahayana Wujie from Master Ning, Qin Sang began to re-examine the "ancients" he met in the Storm Realm.

For example, Suzaku and Ghost Mother must have been trapped in the Storm Realm for more than three thousand years. If a 69th Heavenly Tribulation had descended, they would have been reduced to ashes long ago. Suzaku had been following him for so long without any calamity. Could it be that they were all Mahayana cultivators before?

A great Mahayana master has fallen to this point. Is this the so-called formless calamity?

Zhuque's previous arrogant words might eventually come true. One day, he might really have to rely on it.

"It's a pity that the Qilin egg has shown no signs of hatching yet," Qin Sang murmured.

At this moment, Qin Sang sensed that the restriction of the cave had been triggered. He used his spiritual sense to scan and knew who the person was, so he forcibly took Zhuque out of the forbidden area.

"Ming Qiu pays respect to Envoy Qin!"

The person who came was Ming Qiu. After the system of merit and virtue was announced, people in the world respectfully called Qin Sang the Envoy.

"I asked you to come here to tell you something."

Qin Sang instructed Zhuque on his shoulder, "Go and invite fellow Daoist Jihong to come over."

Suzaku went reluctantly.

Qin Sang brought Ming Qiu into the cave and took out an ice box and a wooden box. The ice box contained the sacrificial insects collected from Fengju Yumen, and the wooden box contained the flower trees and seeds where the sacrificial insects lived.

That year, when Qin Sang obtained the small cave, he simply collected all the flowers and trees before leaving.

Unexpectedly, these flower trees began to wither immediately after entering the Small Thousand World. Qin Sang was powerless to save the situation and did not have much energy to take care of them, so they all died in the end.

As the Chihua tree withered, the sacrificial insects began to die in large numbers.

Later, Qin Sang learned the secret method of cultivating sacrificial insects from the Hao Bo family. Only then did he realize that the flower tree named Chi Hua was very delicate. Although he moved the flower tree along with the land, even a slight change in the environment would cause the Chi Hua tree to wither.

Hao Bo also had to be very careful when cultivating this flower tree, which took a lot of effort. However, once a large number of Chihua trees were cultivated, the rewards were also very considerable. They could be used as a habitat for sacrificial insects, soothe sacrificial insects, make them more likely to recognize their master, and have other wonderful uses.

The most valuable one among them is that it can urge the sacrificial insects to speed up the production of gall crystals.

The Chihua tree forest withered, but fortunately some Chihua trees still had seeds left, and Qin Sang also sealed up the sacrificial insects that had not died.

After Qin Sang read through the entire secret technique of Hao Bo, he found that he was stuck at the first step. Unfortunately, he only had this secret technique of the witch clan, and without the Chihua tree, he could not cultivate the sacrificial insects.

There are two conditions for cultivating Chihua trees.

One of them requires someone who practices the Hao Bo family's heritage and performs secret techniques on the flowers and trees from time to time.

Qin Sang has handed over the inheritance of the Hao Bo family to Old Demon Fang. With the joint efforts of the Wu clan masters in comprehension, it has been very effective. Some Wu clan monks have already begun to try to practice it, and this task can be handed over to them.

Secondly, it needs special spiritual medicine to be watered, most of which are spiritual medicines unique to the Wu clan. Qin Sang searched around and found that it was impossible to gather them all. This time, he specially invited Ji Hong back from the Siyou clan to ask him if there was any way to find another way.

Qin Sang signaled Ming Qiu to open the ice box, inside which were frozen young sacrificial insects.

He had collected some special sacrificial insects, which could be considered the king of sacrificial insects, and could save a lot of time in the future. But the king of insects must be supported by a large group, otherwise it would gradually degenerate. The current task was to cultivate the insect group first.

As they were talking, Suzaku brought Jihong back.

Ji Hong and Qin Sang were already familiar with each other. He jumped onto the stone table and asked, "Before leaving, Daoist Fellow Si Lu asked me to pass on a message. Recently, Si Huang has sent people to inquire about the Mirage Jue many times. He is worried that the Lu family's Mirage Jue will be lost. How should I respond?"

"No hurry, let them air out for a while."

Qin Sang was naturally fearless as he held the Mirage Jue in his hand. By the time Si Huang became impatient and sent his young master to the Storm Sea, the time was almost right.

Ji Hong's nose wings moved slightly, as if he smelled something, and stared at the wooden box, "What's inside?"

"Some tree species," Qin Sang smiled, "You might as well open it and take a look, fellow Daoist."

Ji Hong couldn't wait any longer and jumped to the wooden box. The box opened with a click, revealing several olive-shaped seeds. He carefully took them in his hands and couldn't take his eyes off them.

"This is the seed of the Chihua tree. Are you interested, fellow Taoist?" Qin Sang asked.

Ji Hong nodded repeatedly, then suddenly shook his head and said repeatedly: "It's not easy! It's not easy!"

Seeing that Ji Hong could tell the delicate nature of the Chihua tree at a glance, Qin Sang thought to himself that he had found the right person, and took out another jade slip, "It records an effective method of cultivation. Unfortunately, most of the spiritual medicines have been lost. Daoist friends may be able to learn from it."

Ji Hong immediately hugged the jade slip and examined it carefully.

Qin Sang discovered that when Jihong was serious, he could show his straightforward nature more. Sometimes he shook his head and muttered to himself, sometimes he scratched his ears and cheeks and thought hard, and sometimes he lay on the desk with his head resting on the jade slip, and he almost thought he was asleep.

"Does my fellow Daoist have any clues?" Qin Sang asked.

Ji Hong turned over and sat up, tapping his brows hard, "I have inspiration, it's too confusing, I need some quiet time!"

After saying this, without even saying goodbye to Qin Sang, he picked up the wooden box and jade slips and rushed out of the cave.

Ming Qiu looked at Ji Hong, secretly amazed in his heart, and suddenly noticed Qin Sang looking at him, and hurriedly said respectfully: "On behalf of the Wu Clan, I am willing to take on this task and share the worries of Envoy Qin!"

Qin Sang nodded, "Cultivating sacrificial insects is related to the future of the Storm Realm. I will circle out an area near each altar and set up a department under the Five Thunders Courtyard to specialize in cultivating Chihua trees and sacrificial insects, the famous mountain Yuyuan. The immortal officials of this department, except for the post of the capital recorder, will be selected by your Wu clan."

Ming Qiu was overjoyed when he heard this. What he feared most was that there was no place for the Wu Clan in Wu Lei Yuan. Wu Lei Yuan set up a special department for the Wu Clan. From now on, as long as they carefully cultivated the sacrificial insects, they would not have to worry about their status in Master Qin's heart being shaken.

"You can take the secret technique and these sacrificial insects back and comprehend them first. As for the matter of cultivating the Chihua tree, you can come and ask fellow Daoist Jihong for advice at any time," Qin Sang said.

"As ordered!"

Mingqiu bowed and retreated.

Qin Sang returned to the forbidden area again and left Suzaku outside despite his protests.

Looking at the Daiyu Fairy Mountain, Qin Sang fell into deep thought.

After a conversation with Master Ning, Qin Sang gained a deeper understanding of Mount Daiyu.

Master Ning reminded him that he could use a similar method to refine magic weapons to temporarily refine Mount Daiyu, with the goal of reducing the size of the mountain, concealing its fluctuations and making it easier to bring it into the holy land, but he had to be careful as it might aggravate the collapse of the mountain.

Qin Sang has a small cave, so he can save this step.

During this period, he concentrated on his contemplation and came to the conclusion that Mount Daiyu was too fragile. No matter what he wanted to do with Mount Daiyu, it would be safest to wait until he absorbed the essence of the mountain and repaired the mountain.

Thinking of this, Qin Sang gave up the idea of ​​exploring the secrets of the fairy mountain, and his mind sank into the stone tablet again.

This time there was plenty of time, and Qin Sang carefully selected the ancient taboos in the mountain. As Qin Sang controlled the ancient taboos one by one, the fairy mountain began to change.

The clouds and mist suddenly dissipated, completely exposing the mountain.

Then, a light mist began to appear from the foot of the mountain and slowly spread to the top of the mountain, appearing softer than before.

After an unknown amount of time, when the mist enveloped the fairy mountain again, Qin Sang opened his eyes and saw a vast expanse of white. He flew out of the mountain and could hardly sense the fluctuations of the Daiyu Fairy Mountain, so the impact on the small cave heaven would become negligible.

Qin Sang raised his right hand, and the Qianjun Ring flashed with light. The Daiyu Fairy Mountain disappeared out of thin air and was taken into the small cave.

The fairy mountain fell steadily to the ground, and because of the fog, it was out of tune with the surrounding environment.

Qin Sang waited patiently for a while and saw that the small cave showed no signs of instability. In fact, it seemed a little more stable than before.

Qin Sang remembered that Master Ning had said that the power of the Immortal Mountain could strengthen the Law Realm. A cultivator in the Fusion Stage could control the Law Realm, and a cultivator in the Mahayana Stage could open up a piece of heaven and earth. Based on this speculation, could the Law Realm be the first performance of the creation of the world, or the prototype of a piece of heaven and earth?

In this case, perhaps it is not an illusion.

After returning to the cave, Qin Sang found that some sound transmission notes were trapped in the restriction in front of the door. It took a long time to collect the immortal mountain. Most of them were the contents reported by Li Yufu, and the altar for transmitting the sound had already been built.

These things will be taken care of by the younger generations, and the only thing that Qin Sang needs to do personally is the final management of the altar.

Qin Sang is the envoy of the Five Thunders Court. He set up an altar here to pass on the scriptures. The Storm Realm can also be considered as a place of governance, but it can only be called a traveling governance at best.

In ancient times, You Zhi still had some hope of connecting with the Divine Court, but now it is almost impossible, and condensing the Du Gong Seal is just a luxury.

After reading them casually, Qin Sang put the sound transmission notes aside and began to think about himself.

Having gained enlightenment during the battle, he should have focused on improving his cultivation.

Master Ning only said that the holy land would be opened within a thousand years, but he did not specify the exact time. It could be a long time later, or it could be soon.

There are so many masters in the Holy Land that fighting is inevitable. It is best to improve your strength and prepare for the trip to the Holy Land. The best choice is to refine the Heaven-binding Golden Lock and perfect the Four Symbols Sword Formation. (End of this chapter)
