"Fellow Daoist Gu, do you seem to know about this kind of spiritual fruit?" The sloppy old man raised his snow-white brows and said with profound meaning.
"I just heard about it..." Gu Qing chuckled and shook his head, facing the sloppy old man's gaze, and said, "Fellow Taoist Mukui seems to be very familiar with this blood-washing spirit fruit? Please clarify my doubts."
This sloppy old man calls himself Mukui, but his cultivation level is unknown.
However, the soul power displayed by this sloppy old man Mukui was between the second and third levels of Foundation Establishment.
However, Gu Qing did not think that this sloppy old man was a monk in the early stage of foundation building. The power of the soul that this man had previously displayed was somewhat of a pretext to hide his true cultivation.
Mu Kui still chuckled unchanged and responded: "The effect of this red blood spiritual cleansing fruit is to cleanse the monks' spiritual roots, condense the monks' spiritual power, and increase the success rate of the monks to build the foundation... Moreover, it can attack the foundation to build the foundation. The failed monks will eliminate the impact of the failure and then try to build the foundation again."
"I see."
Hearing this, Gu Qing nodded.
He thought of the female cultivator who called herself Tang Yun.
"That junior of fellow Taoist Mukui, is he called Tang Yun?" Gu Qing was silent for a moment, as if thinking, and then asked bluntly.
"How come Daoyou Gu has seen that girl?" Mu Kui looked a little surprised, "This matter of washing the spiritual fruit with red blood was indeed reported to me by that girl... Well, this is what happened!"
Mukui said, glanced at Gu Qing, seemed to have thought of something, his face became enlightened, and said with emotion: "I didn't know where this girl got this news before, but now it seems that this girl is where Gu Daoyou is." I got this news in Qingxi Town! I never thought that Qingxi Town, a place where mortals live together, except for outstanding people like Daoyou Gu living here in seclusion, would actually hide such amazing secrets."
Gu Qing said: "Fellow Taoist Mu is so complimentary."
"That female cultivator Tang Yun turns out to be a descendant of fellow Taoist Mukui! Fortunately, Gu didn't kill him a few days ago. Otherwise, I really don't know how I should face fellow Taoist Mukui today!"
Mukui waved his hands repeatedly: "Fellow Daoist Gu's words are a bit harsh!"
"That girl offended Fellow Daoist Gu. Even if she is really beaten to death, I will never complain for her, let alone ruin my friendship with Fellow Daoist Gu! You can rest assured about this, Fellow Daoist Gu."
"As for what I mentioned earlier, I wonder how you, Daoist Gu, have considered it? Are you interested in that lost secret realm?"
At the end of the conversation, Mukui asked.
Mukui had told Gu Qingyan before that they went to the deep sea more than 1,800 miles away and discovered a strange place, which was suspected to be a secret place left by a certain sect in the past.
The secret place was not originally in the deep sea, but on a large island. However, due to changes in the earth's veins, the island was torn apart, and part of it fell into the deep sea.
On the island that fell into the deep sea, there was a huge city called Yidu. It was originally the capital of a mortal country on the large and fragmented island.
Yidu...
Then he responded to the sixteen words Mukui told Gu Qing, the word "邑" at the beginning. It seems that Mukui thought that the word "邑" refers to the city capital. There should be evidence of this from the person from the declining monk family. The credibility should be above 80%.
Gu Qing straightened his body and said seriously: "Gu is somewhat interested in what Taoist Taoist Mu said before... However, Gu is working under Changming Island Master, so it is hard to leave without saying goodbye. If Changming is delayed, I really can’t bear to deal with the island owner.”
The owner of Changming Island?
There was a hint of surprise and fear in Mukui's eyes.
Gu Qing did not wait for Mu Kui's response, and continued: "Gu plans to go back to Changming Island first and inform the island owner... I wonder how long it will take for what Daoist friend Mu Kui said?"
"Three days are enough to get back and forth." Mu Kui made a brief estimate and responded, then reached out and grabbed a communication talisman and handed it to Gu Qing, "If fellow Taoist intends to participate in this matter, you can hold this communication talisman. Come to Donghui Island to find me within half a month."
Gu Qing nodded and took the messenger talisman.
It was a gray communication talisman that looked like a cloud. There was nothing special about it. Gu Qing turned his hand and put it into the storage ring, then stood up and hugged Mu Kui.
"Gu will take his leave now!"
Leaving Mukui's Yunzhou, Gu Qing headed towards Changming Island and flew through the air. Half an hour later, his speed slowed down slightly.
Gu Qing stood among the clouds and mist, squinting his eyes.
Naturally, he was extremely wary of Mukui who suddenly appeared and invited him to explore the lost secret realm of a declining monk clan. After all, this person's cultivation level was unknown, and he deliberately revealed the power of the soul in the early stage of foundation building. There was no way he could do anything wrong. plot.
Gu Qing thought for a while and felt certain.
'On the premise of ensuring safety in that secret realm, you might as well take a look from the front. Currently, my ancient demon's true body has reached eighty-three feet. It is expected that even a monk in the middle stage of foundation building will be unable to break through this body's defense! The Red Blood Spirit Washing Fruit... If such a precious thing really exists in that secret realm, it is not impossible to do this... This fruit is excellent whether you sell it or take it yourself.
Gu Qing's thoughts surged and finally calmed down.
Immediately, he took out the sea map from the storage ring at his fingertips, determined its location, quickly put away the sea map, and flew away towards Qingshu Island where the casual cultivator alliance was located.
The sky is vast, and the clouds are thousands of miles away.
In Gu Qing's eyes, he quickly retreated. The uniform deep blue sea, the islands that appeared from time to time, and the sporadic monks escaping from the light were like a picture scroll that kept repeating. The black robe on his body kept fluttering under the strong wind blowing in front of him. The tall and straight figure seemed to blend into the wind, thus drawing an extremely long black line between the sea and the sky.
call out!
The continuous sound of breaking through the sky became very sharp.
Gu Qingru flew for about three hours, and finally traveled tens of thousands of miles and arrived in front of Qingshu Island where the Loose Cultivator Alliance was located.
Qingshu Island is at the edge of the sea map in Gu Qing's hands, and for the 3.5 million-mile Linyu Sea, Qingshu Island is in the center. When Gu Qing rushed to Qingshu Island, he obviously I noticed that the aura of heaven and earth nearby was getting stronger and stronger.
Qingshu Island is shrouded in white spiritual mist, and the dark night turns everything on Qingshu Island into blurry black shadows.
Gu Qing felt a little surprised.
Qingshu Island is the island where the Loose Cultivator Alliance in Linyu Sea is located. It should be said that it should be extremely prosperous and filled with a large number of people with advanced cultivation levels. However, looking from a distance, there is no aura on the island. The number of monks was in line with his guess.
Just when Gu Qing arrived outside Qingshu Island and pressed down the light on the beach of Qingshu Island, he noticed something.
Gu Qing's heart moved, and he took out the object from the storage ring, the jade ornament of the unknown monster, which was given by Chang Deng Old Taoist. The object became brighter, emitting circles of light around it.
What happened next made Gu Qing's pupils shrink.
He saw that the halo emanating from the jade ornament dimmed rapidly after it appeared. It only enveloped his whole body and was completely extinguished, as if it was swallowed by something in the darkness!
Gu Qing was shocked and confused, but did not dwell on the matter.
Holding the jade ornament, he felt in his heart and looked to one side, where there was a ray of light sticking to the ground and heading towards it.
The escaping light was dark yellow in color, and there were faint fluctuations of the divine walking talisman. Looking at the speed of the escape, it should be that a monk in the late stage of Qi refining had activated the divine walking talisman and was rushing towards him.
'Is it the person arranged by Chang Deng Laodao?
Gu Qing secretly guessed.
The dark yellow light suddenly stopped in front of Gu Qing. A fat-faced monk with a wide body and a height of about ten feet appeared in front of him with a serious expression. His cultivation level was at the twelfth level of Qi Refining.
The tall, fat-faced monk, who was like a wall, hugged Gu Qing and said, "Junior Xing Wan Zong, I have met my senior."
"My master has already sent a message, senior, come with junior."
The tall, fat-faced monk who called himself Xing Wan Zong made a gesture of invitation to Gu Qing, then led the way with his head in front of him. He slapped a magic talisman on his lap, and a dark yellow light appeared all over his body again.
Gu Qing looked a little strange.
He looked at the escape light in the distance, feeling a little amused at this tall, fat-faced monk who didn't even let him say anything.
Gu Qing shook his head and followed closely behind.
He took one step forward, often passing by dozens of feet silently. As he followed the Xing Wan Zong forward, Gu Qing was still looking at the situation around him.
The situation on Qingshu Island was indeed what he thought.
According to the angle he looked down from between the sky and the sky, it was not difficult to calculate that Qingshu Island had a radius of three to four hundred miles, which was quite a large area.
On Qingshu Island, which is three to four hundred miles away, there are basically no ordinary people. All the people coming and going are monks. Everywhere in the stalls, in various shops, and even on the bodies of the monks, there are all kinds of magical instruments, jewelry, etc. that emit spiritual power fluctuations. There are countless spiritual materials, but the spiritual light emitted by these things has been swallowed up by something unknown in the darkness. This is also the reason why the light on Qingshu Island is as dim as the sky.
I just don’t know why the thing existing in the darkness on Qingshu Island does not swallow the sky light, but only swallows all kinds of spiritual light.
Xing Wanzong soon took Gu Qing to Qingshu Island, at the foot of a rather steep mountain peak with the top submerged in thick spiritual mist.
Seeing Xing Wanzong's body light disappearing and looking at the mountain in front of him with a serious face, Gu Qing knew that the mountain in front of him was the Loose Cultivator Alliance in Linyu Sea Area. He raised his head and looked up.
A rather depressing feeling appeared in his heart.
'There will probably be an old monster with a pill-forming presence here.
'Even, there is more than one pill-forming old monster sitting in charge!
Gu Qing looked away calmly and with difficulty.
I don't know how high this mountain is, but it is always below a thousand feet. The entire foot of the mountain is shrouded in the glow of the formation. Only where Xing Wanzong and Gu Qing went, there was a cracked portal.
"Senior Bu, please show up and see me." Xing Wanzong bowed and clasped his fists, saluting in front of the formation's glow and the cracked door.
A female cultivator in a black dress came out of the cracked door and landed quietly in front of Xing Wanzong. She glanced at Gu Qing first, then looked at Xing Wanzong and said, "There are distinguished guests in the alliance. My father has already gone to accompany me. If you have any questions, fellow Daoist Xing, please tell me."
Xing Wanzong raised his head and looked at the female cultivator in black skirt.
He frowned imperceptibly.
This female cultivator in black skirt is named Buling. Her cultivation level is also at the twelfth level of Qi Refining, which is quite different from the time when he broke through to this realm.
Obviously, he was not qualified to receive this senior Gu Qing.
But Xing Wanzong didn't say anything. Instead, he calmly introduced Gu Qing to Xiu Buling, a girl in black skirt: "Fellow Taoist Bu Ling, this is Senior Gu Qing and Gu. This time, he was recommended by his master to join the alliance. Please step in." Fellow Taoist Ling opened this door and asked Xing to bring Senior Gu in to establish the alliance certificate."
Bu Ling secretly glanced at Gu Qing with somewhat curious eyes, but now that she knew he was a senior foundation builder, she didn't dare to look too closely at him.
"Have you ever carried Senior Changdeng's token?" Bu Ling asked.
Coming out of the heavily guarded mountain where the Loose Cultivator Alliance was located, Gu Qing stood in front of the portal where the glow of the previous formation at the foot of the mountain was cracked.
"Junior, I will take my leave now."
Xing Wanzong walked through the door. He saluted Gu Qing solemnly, then turned his tall body and walked away.
The rogue cultivator alliance with the main color of darkness, the solemn and solemn halls, the tyrannical aura deep in the halls, and the extremely binding alliance certificate made Gu Qing's heart attach great importance to the rogue cultivator alliance. The level has risen to an astonishing level.
Gu Qing held a lapis lazuli identity plate issued by the Loose Cultivator Alliance in his hand. He quietly watched Xing Wanzong leave, then turned around and looked at the mysterious mountain where countless powerful men were hidden.
'There are so many strong men in the casual cultivator alliance, and the alliance of cultivator families in the Linyu Sea area is so terrifying. &
"Gu Qing sighed secretly in his heart and put away Qingjin's identity plate.
There are not many Xiuzhenfang cities on Qingshu Island.
In fact, the entire island of Qingshu Island can be regarded as a large Xiuzhenfang City. Its prosperity is far more prosperous than the now destroyed Kurongfang where Gu Qing once stayed.
Gu Qing came out of the mountain where the Loose Cultivators Alliance was stationed, and started walking around in the prosperous Xiuzhenfang City on Qingshu Island.
When he arrived here, Gu Qing had already counted the twenty-odd storage bags of Qi-refining monks that he had harvested at the pass on the deserted island. As expected, there was nothing worthy of his attention.
From these storage bags, Gu Qing obtained more than 5,300 pieces of low-grade spiritual stones and 127 pieces of medium-grade spiritual stones. Among them, the low-grade spiritual stones were transferred to the stone tablet space by him on the way.
The middle-grade spiritual stones are naturally included in the storage ring.
Now, Gu Qing's number of middle-grade spiritual stones has reached two hundred and twenty-seven yuan, which is not too shallow.
Many monks in the early stages of foundation building probably have this kind of net worth, and they will never possess as many spiritual weapons as he does.
Gu Qing now owns four spiritual weapons, not counting the five nearly scrapped spiritual sword embryos.
The low-grade spiritual weapon Heavy Water Mysterious Pearl, the middle-grade spiritual weapon Nine Wonderful Heavenly Flower Treasure Wheel, plus the Tongshan Seal of an unknown grade obtained from Li Hengyang, and the Fantasy Thunder Cauldron containing several worlds within the cauldron.
Among these four spiritual weapons.
The Nine Wonderful Heavenly Flower Treasure Wheel can create a false appearance of one's own body, or anything he has seen, to confuse the enemy. The Heavy Water Mysterious Pearl is a treasure that is both offensive and defensive, but he has never condensed Heavy Water so far. , unable to exert the power of this treasure.
As for the Tongshan Seal, it is also a treasure that attaches equal importance to both offense and defense. It can be transformed into the shadow of an extremely heavy giant peak, either to suppress enemy cultivators arbitrarily, or to seal the entire area for defense.
It's just that this treasure consumes too much spiritual energy. Gu Qing tried to sacrifice this treasure in the stone monument space. However, with his current cultivation level, just sacrificing this treasure would consume 20 to 30% of his spiritual power. If he were to use this treasure A full blow will deplete the spiritual energy in the body.
It is true that the power of this treasure's full blow is quite impressive, and can even be compared with his full blow with the power of the ancient demon.
However, after using the power of the ancient demon to strike with all his strength, his consumption was extremely small and he could recover quickly. And with the full strike of Yushi Tongshan Yin, the spiritual power in his body was exhausted, and the five-color lotus platform in his Dantian Qi sea would also It becomes dim, and even the soul will be a little chaotic!
Therefore, although Gu Qing has already successfully refined this Tongshan Seal, he has no intention of using this treasure for a long time.
'Nine Wonderful Heavenly Flower Treasure Wheel, although the power it explodes after being activated is quite good, for me, it is most practical to use it to transform the appearance... As for the Heavy Water Mysterious Pearl, I still have to take the time to condense the Heavy Water and fill it up. See Let’s see how powerful it can be... Let’s not talk about the Kiriyama Seal for now... Let alone the Phantom Thunder Cauldron. Gu Qing walked in the Xiuzhenfang Market on Qingshu Island, picking at various stalls.
Gu Qing paused in his steps at a remote stall.
He passed by the monks in front of several stalls, crouched down, and with his bright eyes, he observed a kind of talisman sold at the stall. This kind of talisman was light red, with a slight smell of blood. There is a subtle luster flowing on it, which looks very evil.
All in all, it looks very different from ordinary talisman paper.
but……
Gu Qing is a second-level talisman master. Judging from his many years of experience, the quality of this kind of talisman paper is no less than the talisman paper he previously purchased in Yinyuefang City on Changming Island, which can seal and draw second-level high-grade spiritual talismans. !
"How do you price this kind of talisman paper?" Gu Qing pointed to a few stacks of strange crimson talisman papers on the stall and asked the stall owner.
The stall owner was shrouded in a wide black robe. He sat upright behind the stall and turned his head after hearing Gu Qing's words.
Gu Qing could sense that under the black robe of the stall owner, there was a sharp gaze coming directly at him, looking at him quietly. He seemed not to have noticed this gaze and remained motionless.
He looked at the stall owner seductively.
"This is a stack of 100 talismans, priced at 150 mid-grade spiritual stones." The stall owner responded to Gu Qing in an extremely harsh voice that was mostly deliberately disguised, "Sold without refund, fellow Taoist, be careful."
The voice seemed to have a bit of ridicule.
Gu Qing nodded: "In that case, let's take a look first."
With that said, he turned and left.
This was not because Gu Qing felt that the stall owner's price was too expensive, but that he currently had other uses for the two hundred and thirty-seven pieces of mid-grade spiritual stones.
Wandering around this huge and prosperous Xiuzhenfang City, Gu Qing felt quite eye-opening. In the past, he was really a frog in the well and could not imagine what this world really looked like.
Fortunately, after building the foundation, he had some qualifications to truly understand the world, but it was just a few qualifications. In this city, after going around, the foundation building monks he saw, There are eighty if not a hundred, but there are even more beings whose cultivation level he cannot sense!
Among them, how many old monsters are there?
Could there be the existence of the Nascent Soul True Lord?
Gu Qing looked at the old man with an immortal style on the wicker chair in the shabby shop beside the road. He might be an unimaginably tyrannical being - if he wasn't tyrannical, how could he be so passive and sabotage?
It is precisely because he is strong enough that he manages a store that is extremely precious in the eyes of others to such a miserable state!
'There are a total of twenty-seven shops and stalls here that can repair magic weapons and spiritual weapons. The more reliable one is the one called Ten Thousand Forging Valley, which is backed by the Loose Cultivator Alliance... let's call it a shop.
Gu Qing walked straight across half of Qingshu Island.
He came to the front of a small valley. Looking from a distance, he could see huge furnaces with a height of several feet standing in the valley. There was an endless stream of monks coming and going in the valley, and it was obvious that business was very good.
An iron-gray inconspicuous plaque hangs at the intersection of the mountain peaks on one side of the valley. On it are engraved the three characters 'Wan forging Valley', and in the lower right corner is the logo of the Loose Cultivator Alliance - that is Countless broken swords gathered together to form a sword ruin.
The Sword Ruins logo of the Loose Cultivator Alliance is black and white, and looks like branches interspersed randomly. However, if your eyes fall on it, it will immediately feel sharp and tragic, directly in front of you.
Gu Qing stood for a moment and walked towards the Ten Thousand Forging Valley.
After a few breaths.
In a palace built among many furnaces in Wan Forging Valley, Gu Qing, wearing a black robe, sat on a chair and waited quietly.
The person in charge of receiving him from the Ten Thousand Forging Valley had already gone to report to the elders of the Ten Thousand Forging Valley after seeing his green-gold identity plate.
It is said that the elders of Ten Thousand Forging Valley are all second-grade weapon refiners and above, and have refined at least one spiritual weapon. Gu Qing does not know much about the art of weapon refining, but he only knows that the steps of weapon refining are complicated, and there may be soul fusion. , tempering, carving spiritual patterns and other major steps.
Gu Qing did not wait too long.
A few more breaths passed, and his eyes flickered slightly.
Several heavy footsteps sounded from outside the palace, and a moving mountain of meat swayed before Gu Qing's eyes.
"Is this Fellow Daoist Gu Qing from the alliance? I would like to congratulate you." The fat on the mountain of flesh trembled slightly, revealing a huge bald head. On the bald face, the facial features were all crowded together, and there was only a thin line of hair. With clear black and white eyes, he looked at Gu Qing, "I heard that Fellow Daoist Gu has a set of spiritual weapon sword embryos that need to be repaired? I wonder how damaged this set of spiritual weapon sword embryos is?"
Gu Qing looked at the tall young man who had received him from behind who called himself He Feng Zhixiu. Against the backdrop of He Feng's fleshy body, this young man actually looked a bit petite.
"Fellow Daoist He Feng! This is the set of spiritual weapon sword embryos." Seeing He Feng from Wan Forging Valley being so straightforward, Gu Qing took out the five spiritual weapon sword embryos without any thought of greetings.
