After waving his hand and putting the Desire Soul Banner into his storage bag, Gu Qing moved slightly and took out a square sound-transmitting jade talisman that was all white.
His consciousness penetrated into it.
"Senior Brother Gu, Senior Sister Jian Yujian and Senior Brother Wang Rongwang from the inner sect have arrived and are waiting outside the Red Feather Formation."
Zhen Jiulong's voice sounded immediately.
His eyes flashed slightly.
The two inner disciples came here to confirm the status of this first-order spiritual vein. He put away the sound transmission jade talisman, stepped on it, and his body turned into a ball of white light spanning more than a thousand feet, and looked towards the darkness. Outside the red formation light curtain, there were two figures, a man and a woman.
These two figures, a man and a woman, are both wearing extremely complicated pale gold clothes. Their faces are unclear due to the aura surrounding them. They are standing outside the formation light screen of the Red Feather Formation, chatting and laughing. Behind them, It is the vast sea of sand between the mountains.
"Senior Brother Gu."
Zhen Jiulong on the side saw Gu Qing's arrival and quickly came closer, lowering his head and standing behind Gu Qing.
Gu Qing's consciousness moved and he focused on the blue-black formation token on his waist. Immediately, the formation light curtain in front of the two people suddenly opened a portal. When the two men and women outside saw this, their bodies flashed and they Shi Mian came to Gu Qing.
"Is this Junior Brother Gu?"
The man on the left has an average appearance and a calm nobility. He clasped his fists slightly and said to Gu Qing with a smile.
The pretty woman on the right looked Gu Qing up and down, then looked away at the surrounding Red Feather Formation without speaking.
There was a slight smile on Gu Qing's face, and he also clasped his fists in response: "I have met senior brother Wang Rong, and I have met senior sister Jian Yu. You two have come from afar. If you have something to do, let's get straight to the point."
As soon as he said this, Wang Rong and Jian Yu had strange expressions on their faces. They couldn't help but look at each other, and then both smiled.
"It's so refreshing! He seems to be a decisive person." Jian Yu opened her red lips and said, her voice was a little soft, but it seemed to have a special power, "The master of the two of us is Li Hengyang, the leader of the first peak. , this trip is based on the order of my master, to determine the situation in the spiritual vein, and by the way, I will bring Junior Brother Gu a reward for saving the building from collapse and saving this spiritual vein."
Li Hengyang!
A greasy face appeared in Gu Qing's mind.
In the Tianfu Pavilion that few people go to, Li Hengyang, who has a greasy face and occasionally looks wretched, is actually the leader of the First Peak and the only fake elixir realm monk of the Xianhe Sect.
As soon as Jian Yu finished speaking, she took out a picture scroll and threw it to Gu Qing. Gu Qing caught it and unfolded it to take a few glances.
I saw thousands of hectares of blue waves on the scroll, a vast sea area, and the blue water seemed to be rushing out of the scroll.
But that's all.
Gu Qing was slightly confused.
"My master has been practicing the Guishui Returning One Gong for more than two hundred years. This scroll was painted by Guan Canghai many years ago when he was in the late stage of foundation building. I heard that Junior Brother Gu is also practicing the Guishui Returning One Gong. If one day Having understood the true meaning of this scroll, please inform my senior brother." Wang Rong's eyes were a bit burning, and he looked away from the scroll with difficulty, looking at Gu Qing and said slowly.
"must."
When Gu Qing heard Wang Rong's words, his eyes lit up slightly and he nodded heavily.
He put the scroll into his storage bag and looked at the arrow jade that was already wandering around in the Red Feather Formation. This senior sister from the inner sect of the eighth level of Qi Refining glanced at the formation, and from time to time her spiritual sense came out to check it carefully. His expression was even weirder.
Wang Rong's cultivation was at the ninth level of Qi Refining, but he didn't look at the Red Feather Formation like an arrow jade. He smiled and said to Gu Qing: "Junior Sister Jian is a first-level formation master. Now that I have made the same mistake again, we don't need to worry about him. , let’s go check out the spiritual veins first.”
"yes."
Gu Qing's response was still concise. He turned around and took Wang Rong to the underground entrance of the first-order spiritual veins. At the same time, he sent a message to Zhen Jiulong to stay on the ground and accompany Jian Yu.
…
Less than half an hour later.
"This level of spiritual veins has been depleted to such an extent. How did Sun Sheng leave our Xianhe sect? It's really abominable!" Wang Rong stood in the underground hollow and roared angrily, He took out a scroll and poked his spiritual sense into it to confirm.
"According to records, there are reserves of more than 500,000 low-grade spiritual stones and more than 1,600 medium-grade spiritual stones in the first-level spiritual veins here. Water-attributed spiritual stones have the largest number. In the past, 50,000 were mined every year. Sixty percent of the low-grade spiritual stones and one hundred and sixty mid-grade spiritual stones must be handed over to the sect, and the remaining 40% goes to the Nine Dazhai and the disciples stationed here in the sect, but now..."
It can be seen that Wang Rong is indeed gritting his teeth with hatred.
Gu Qing's eyes were slightly strange.
He didn't feel that deeply. At most, he had some murderous intention towards Sun Sheng.
Just now, he had taken Wang Rong along the underground corridor and walked around the inside of the first-order spiritual vein. At this moment, he stood aside with his eyes, nose, and heart, without any thoughts.
Wang Rong rambled bitterly for a while, realizing that he had lost his composure.
He regained his calm state, reached out and patted the storage bag on his waist, took out a mirror-like magic weapon, threw it in front of him, and then a spiritual light popped up in his hand.
Buzz!
A slight buzzing sound sounded, and soon a middle-aged man in a golden robe was revealed in the mirror. The middle-aged man took a step forward, and an illusory figure broke away from the mirror and floated into the air. Standing in front of Wang Rong.
"Master of the Gate."
Wang Rong bowed respectfully with clasped fists.
"Master of the Gate."
Gu Qing also cupped his fists and saluted.
"Well... there is indeed a serious shortage of spiritual energy here." The figure in the golden robe, the illusory figure, exuded an extremely huge invisible force, covering hundreds of miles around, "Gu Qing, can you gather the remnants of Jiuzhaigou?" People, letting them live in the Red Feather Formation shows your compassion. You were able to kill people who broke into the formation in Jiuzhaigou before, which shows your determination. You have a place in the three sects of Hui Feng Valley next time."
"Thank you, Master."
Gu Qing responded without changing his expression.
"In addition, if the spiritual veins here are to be restored, it will take at least a dozen years or more than a hundred years. Before the spiritual veins are completely restored, no more spiritual stones are allowed to be mined. The deacons and disciples who have come here do not have to turn in the spirit within the sect. Stone." The figure in the golden robe thought for a moment, left a few words, and then stepped back into the mirror artifact. Gu Qing noticed that Wang Rong, who was at the ninth level of Qi Refining, had a look on his face at this moment. A little pale.
It seems that the consumption of using this magic weapon is really not small.
After Wang Rong put away the mirror magic weapon, he clasped his fists and excused himself with Gu Qing, and soon the two of them returned to the ground.
"Did you refine the Red Feather Formation Disk?"
As soon as he came out of the entrance of the underground spiritual vein, Jian Yu came up and looked at Gu Qing with narrowed eyes. At the same time, a sound transmission sounded in Gu Qing's ears. He raised his eyes to look at Jian Yu and nodded slightly.
"So what? Senior Sister Jian, since you are an formation master, you should also have a few condensation methods restricted by divine consciousness. Can you trade with your junior brother?" At the same time, Gu Qing sent a message to this woman.
Jian Yu blinked, a little surprised, but did not respond. She turned around and left with Wang Rong.
"Junior Brother Zhen, let's go." Wang Rong turned around and called out to Zhen Jiulong, who kept his head down and looked at his toes.
Gu Qing raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhen Jiulong calmly.
"This...Senior Brother Gu, the family is urgently summoned, and we still hope to see Haihan."
Looking at Gu Qing's kind eyes, Zhen Jiulong's heart was excited, he hugged the evil star and followed behind Wang Rong.
Gu Qing felt a little funny in his heart.
His consciousness focused on the formation token on his waist, and a portal suddenly appeared on the dark red formation light screen. Wang Rong grabbed Zhen Jiulong's shoulders and walked out of the formation together with Jian Yu and the others.
Wang Rong looked back with his flying sword in the mid-air where the yellow sand was flying, nodded to Gu Qing, and took the lead in grabbing Zhen Jiulong who lowered his head and did not dare to look at Gu Qing, and flew up to the sky. Jian Yu glanced at Gu Qing several times and stayed there. The next message came and then left.
"Junior brother Gu, you should know that there are three kinds of changes in the Three Talents Forbidden. Heaven and Earth, Earth and Human, Earth and Heaven and Human, Heaven and Earth, all have different uses."
The woman's message was still echoing in his ears. Outside the formation light curtain that opened a portal in front of Gu Qing's eyes, there was only yellow sand left in the sky.
An extremely rare feeling of loneliness appeared in Gu Qing's heart.
The world is vast and the shadow is dim.
He sighed secretly, closed the door on the formation light screen, took out the futon and sat cross-legged on the spot, thinking about the sound transmission left by Jian Yu for a while, skillfully took out the finger tips in his hand, and tried to change the three talents ban, but it was There was a tingling sensation between the eyebrows.
fail.
As expected.
Nothing in this world is easy. For him, practice makes perfect. He looked up at the sky.
Looking at the yellow sand through the dark red light curtain of the Red Feather Formation, it seems to be no different from the snow and wind in winter.
Gu Qing lowered his head again and tried to condense the three talents.
…
As spring passes and autumn comes, the flowers bloom and fade several times.
In the blink of an eye, six years passed.
Under the cliff where the abandoned Hanshan City is located, the river has changed its course, and the original river course is covered by vast sand dunes.
At this moment, on the sand dunes.
An extremely tall figure was leading a few teenagers to hunt a first-order sand salamander.
"Yan Lei, block that side!"
"Yan Ya, use the earth wall technique to seal that side!"
"Yan Hong, you are fast. You can stop this beast wherever it goes. Don't resist, just stop him a little bit!"
Yan Wan, whose face had matured a lot, and whose figure was nearly ten feet tall, quickly walked through the soft sand dunes, and loudly ordered the other three teenagers. Before he finished speaking, he pulled out the huge black-smelling figure. His fist hit the sand ahead.
boom!
A huge sand pit suddenly appeared on the sand ahead. In the scattered yellow sand, a black giant beast was lifted up into the air as the sand rose. Yan Wan saw this and took advantage of the situation to catch it.
This black giant beast has extremely thick limbs and a row of ferocious spikes on its back. It sensed Yan Wan's power, and a humanized look of fear flashed through its small eyes. Its whole body was suddenly shrouded in a cloud of gray air, and it flexibly moved towards Yan Wan in the air. It twisted to the side and flew out more than ten feet, but crashed into a sand wall several feet thick. It smashed the sand wall, paused for a moment, and was struck by a sword light again, flying in the air. It flew back a few feet.
It roared as if enraged.
Under the gray gas, its figure blurred, condensing into a giant gray tail several feet long, and whipped it towards the young man who emitted sword light and slashed it away. His face looked a little joyful at this moment.
The young man's expression froze as his eyes were shrouded by a huge black shadow.
