The next day, Qian Chao and the other five people stopped temporarily to rest on a mountain peak. Qian Chao stood at the highest point of the mountain top, looking at the mountains and rivers around him, and then took out a map to identify the direction.
"This is our location," Qian Chao pointed on the map with his finger. "Well, we are almost at the area we are going to. Girl Tang, did Senior Guhuo tell me where Qingluan lays eggs?" What does it look like, or is there anything different about it?”
"No, Master just said that Qingluan will lay his eggs where the spiritual energy is the strongest."
Qian Chao was a little helpless after hearing this. The term "where the aura is strongest" is too broad. Although the circle drawn by Senior Gu Huo on the map was not big, it was a very large land with undulating mountains. Finding the place with the strongest aura there is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Tang Ping saw it and asked:
"Why, isn't it difficult to find a place like that? Mr. Qian, don't you have a picture of 'Blooming Flowers'?"
The so-called "Blooming Flowers" picture appeared before. It was a painting that Mr. Zhuang of Yiming Pavilion asked him to understand when he tested Qian Chao for the second time. Although the picture on it is a picture of tangled branches and flowers, in fact it is The spiritual veins around the Wuling Sect were all left indistinctly on the paper. It was precisely because Qian Chao had this painting that when Fairy Guhuo told Tang Ping where Qingluan might lay her eggs, she casually A circle was drawn on the map, but Tang Ping didn't think it would be difficult.
"There is a difference between the place where the spiritual energy is the strongest and the place where the spiritual veins gather," Qian Chao said. "For example, our Wuling Sect is the largest gathering place of spiritual veins south of Central Continent, but on weekdays in the sect, you Do you feel that the spiritual energy is very strong?"
This is a real problem. There are not good places with rich spiritual energy everywhere in Wuling Sect. For example, the places where ordinary disciples live and the caves of those pill-forming monks can only be compared by the richness of spiritual energy. There is a huge difference. At least Tang Ping and Lu Pingchuan live in their master's cave respectively. The spiritual energy there is much stronger than that of Qian Chao's house.
After hearing what Qian Chao said, Tang Ping realized that finding Qingluan would not be a simple matter, and murmured:,
"That's true. It seems like it's not easy to find Qingluan."
"I have a question," Yanxuan on the side suddenly said, "Since Qingluan lays eggs in the place with the strongest spiritual energy, then why...well...why not in our sect?"
After all, the Five Spirits Sect is the largest spiritual gathering place south of Central Continent. It is normal for Yanxuan to have this question. Logically speaking, the spiritual energy in the Five Spirits Sect should be very good, otherwise the Five Spirits Sect would not be here. They started to build their own sect there, so it seems that Qingluan should really lay her eggs in Wuling Sect.
"Well," Qian Chao smiled, "if I'm not wrong, it's probably not that it doesn't want to, but that it doesn't dare."
"Why? Is it that Qingluan is afraid of the many ancestors on Yuhu Mountain?" Li Jian asked curiously.
The patriarchs on Yuhu Mountain are naturally those powerful monks at the Nascent Soul level.
Qian Chao had already thought about this problem and said:
"It shouldn't be that we are afraid of them. After all, Qingluan is a true spirit level existence. Although the ancestors of Yuanying in the sect are similar to true immortals in our eyes, they may not be anything in Qingluan's eyes. However, since If it doesn’t come to Wuling Sect or that Qingluan doesn’t go to Yuhu Mountain to lay eggs, I think there should be someone like Qingluan in our sect... This is the fundamental reason.”
"What……"
After listening to Qian Chao's words, Li Jian, Yanxuan and Lu Pingchuan were all curious. Yuhu Mountain was an elusive and elusive place for the qi refining monks in the sect, and the Yuan Ying Patriarch there was already He is a fairy-like figure, and what Qian Chao meant is that there is a more powerful existence on Yuhu Mountain, just like Qingluan.
"This is really possible." Tang Ping said.
"Oh, A Ping, you know, tell me quickly." Yanxuan said.
"I also heard it from my master's chat, but I don't know much about the specific situation. At least on our Yuhu Mountain, there are indeed true spirits."
Qian Chao frowned after hearing this, and it was indeed similar to what he had guessed.
"Wow! What a spirit... Hey... Sister Tang, what on earth is that powerful thing on Yuhu Mountain?" Lu Pingchuan asked very curiously.
"There are rumors that it is Suzaku." Tang Ping replied.
"Suzaku?"
Yanxuan was even more curious after hearing this. Not long ago, during the great tide in Hanquan Valley, Yanxuan unintentionally broke through the shackles in his heart and possessed his own fire spirit during the battle. Moreover, he saw the amazing visions that appeared at that time. In short, Yanxuan's fire spirit is probably the Phoenix Fire Spirit, which is the most superior "Fire Phoenix Spirit" that a monk can possess.
The Fire Phoenix is second only to the Suzaku in the legends of the spiritual world. Of course, more than 90% of the world's monks, or even the vast majority of the world's monks, have no chance to witness a true spirit like the Fire Phoenix or the Suzaku, so whether it is Fire Phoenix and Suzaku both exist only in classics or legends told by people.
And what interests Yanxuan the most is... Suzaku is the "Southern Spirit" among the so-called "Four Spirits of Heaven", also known as the "Fire Spirit"!
In addition to alchemy, Yanxuan is also practicing the art of controlling fire, so if he is lucky enough to see the true appearance of the "Fire Spirit", it will be a great blessing.
This is what Yanxuan thinks.
Tang Pingze added:
"There is also a saying that there is more than one true spirit level existence on Yuhu Mountain. Of course, I don't know how many there are and what they are. And it's not just our Five Spirits Sect. Within the six sects in the world, the four I don’t know about the smaller sect, but the Muyang Sect, which can compete with the Five Spirit Sect, must have a powerful true spirit in their sect, I just don’t know what it is.”
"My dear, was that thing raised by those Yuanying ancestors?" Lu Pingchuan asked again.
"Ha," Tang Ping smiled, "Don't be kidding, Brother Lu, if the Qingluan we were lucky enough to see before entered the Wuling Sect and caused trouble, I can guarantee that it would be very difficult for the ancestors on Yuhu Mountain alone. Those who stop it, in front of the true spirit, the Yuanying level monks are like toddling children. How can the Yuanying ancestors find the means to raise the true spirit? Let's put it this way, regardless of the number of true spirits on Yuhu Mountain To some extent, it must have been enshrined by those ancestors with great respect, or it can be said... It is the true spirit on Yuhu Mountain that allows us to be neighbors with it. Of course, the ancestors on Yuhu Mountain must also have a way to please that person. True Spirit, this is how it can be at peace with us."
"My dear!" Lu Pingchuan frowned after hearing this. "Why is it that such a big scene in Wuling Sect is only possible because of a bunch of old guys trying to please the beasts on Yuhu Mountain?"
Tang Ping shook her head in anger and said:
"Of course not, well, let's take our Five Spirits Sect as an example. It should be our Five Spirits Sect first, and then those ancestors found ways to attract Suzaku, and tried every means to make the Suzaku stay, stay with us Five Spirits Zong, like this..."
Lu Pingchuan interrupted:
"Uh... isn't this pretty much what I said!"
Tang Ping was speechless and could only say:
"Even if it's almost the same, the benefits to the Five Spirit Sect are very, very great. Well, let's put it another way. Do you know how to completely destroy a large sect?"
"Is it possible to kill the true spirit on Yuhu Mountain?" Li Jian said.
"The truth is similar, but it is impossible to kill the true spirits. It can only be driven away. For example, in our Five Spirits Sect, if all the true spirits on Yuhu Mountain leave, even if all the people in our Five Spirits Sect are here, , then in a few years, the Five Spirit Sect will also decline." Tang Ping said.
"Why?" Yanxuan asked.
"Spiritual veins," Qian Chao said suddenly, "it must be because of spiritual veins."
"That's right," Tang Ping said, "The reason why the true spirit stays in the Five Spirit Sect is because the spiritual veins gather here, and the fundamental reason why it leaves is because the spiritual veins have changed. For a large sect like ours, the Five Spirit Sect, the sect There are so many inner monks, they must be dependent on this treasure land where spiritual veins gather. Only such a place can allow many monks to practice with peace of mind. If there is any change in the spiritual veins, the monks may not be affected for a while, but the true spirit will If you can't stay anymore, you will definitely leave. Next, due to the changes in aura, there will not be so many people in the sect who can break through to a higher realm, and the decline of a large sect is just around the corner. "
When Yan Xuan and others heard these words, they thought they were gaining knowledge, but when they stopped in Qian Chao's ears, they felt like they were echoing for a long time like drums in the evening and bells in the morning.
All of a sudden, Qian Chao had a vague understanding of Wen Liang's plot. In his opinion, this guy who had sneaked in after the Suo family's alchemy monks seized the body wanted to avenge his family and wanted to attack the Five Spirits Sect. To recover the blood debt, if he has a way to change the direction of the spiritual veins in the Five Spirits Sect... No matter how he does it, if he is allowed to do it, the Five Spirits Sect may really be destroyed in his hands!
Formation!
With Qian Chao's current methods, he can use formations to change the direction of some minor spiritual veins in a short period of time. For example, when they first saw Qingluan, Qian Chao used this method to change the direction of the blind man. He was forced out of the ground so that Qingluan could kill him.
If Wen Liang also has such a method, or if he can win over someone who has such a method, and if he can use it on the great spiritual veins gathered in the Five Spirit Sect...
This is probably what Wen Liang had in mind!
Seeing Qian Chao's expression changed and he became silent for a moment, Tang Ping asked curiously:
"Hey, Qian boy, what are you thinking about?"
"I'm thinking, if it's a big family, no matter what method they use, what if they can attract a true spirit to stay in their home and provide support?"
Qian Chao didn't say what he just said. After all, he didn't have a mature and complete idea about it, but... the Tian family, the sect was so afraid of the Tian family. No matter how powerful it was, it was just a family, and the sect was so tolerant of it. , could it also be related to what Tang Ping said just now?
"You are talking about the Tian family, but... it is possible," Tang Ping thought along Qian Chao's train of thought. "The Tian family has monks from the Nascent Soul realm. Looking at the world, there are very few families with such strength. If there is a Nascent Soul cultivator in the family, in addition to that person must have had some extraordinary adventures, the place where the Tian family is located must also be extraordinary. It is really possible that there are real spirits in their family. Such a family is within the Five Spirits Realm. There is only one. In other places, the big families in Muyangzong have such strength, and their status seems to be very transcendent. Alas, but these are just conjectures. Only when we can go out and walk in the future will we know more. .”
"Originally, it was just my guess. Let's forget it for now. Let's continue on our way. We are almost at Hanquan Valley, and beyond that is Han Pond. After that, there is a possible place for that Qingluan to stay."
"Let's go."
