Chapter 114 Changes in the Song Family, Whereabouts
Those who can be included in the top 500 of the Hidden Dragon List must at least be in the early stage of the Soul Condensation Realm.
These people are basically the true disciples of the major holy places, or the gems cultivated by some extraordinary cultivators.
Most of these characters possess high-level magical secrets and can kill enemies across borders. Ordinary monks in the middle stage of Condensation will be swept away by them.
Chu Zheng's cultivation level in the early stage of entering the Dao realm ranks among the top 500, which means that he has the strength to fight the enemy across a large realm.
This kind of thing has never happened before.
A person in the Soul Condensation Realm can already be called a great monk, he has already achieved a spiritual soul, and his methods are not comparable to those of a monk in the Dao Realm. Going backwards is too incredible.
No one will doubt whether the Qianlong List is fair. In the past tens of thousands of years, the Qianlong List has never made any mistakes.
After learning the news, Miao Luan was greatly shocked.
When Chu Zheng took action, she had already passed out and had no idea what happened.
She only thought that the condensation monks had accepted Taixuan's reward, so she never took action against Chu Zheng. She never thought that it was because of Chu Zheng's own strength.
Such a monster's talent has attracted the attention of the Immortal Alliance.
After digesting the news, Miao Luan hid his whereabouts all the way and quickly rushed back to the mountain gate of Taixu Holy Land.
The first thing she did after returning to the mountain gate was to find her master and admit her mistake.
In the slightly empty hall, Miao Luan, who had changed into the robes of a true disciple, knelt on the ground, breathing heavily and clearly audibly.
Two feet away in front of her, there was a figure in green sitting cross-legged, with a graceful posture and a veil. His appearance could not be seen clearly, but as his eyes moved, he had a hint of aura.
The pinnacle of the Nine Transformations of the Divine Infant, Taixu Holy Land, Yuling True Lord, Zuo Lingzhi.
Miao Luan felt uneasy. All the magic weapons were lost. This was no small matter.
A high-grade magic weapon can be exchanged for the land of a country, and ordinary divine infant monks only have one in their hands.
If it weren't for her extraordinary talent and Master's preference, she would never have been able to pass on this treasure.
"Who did this?" Zuo Lingzhi's voice was very plain, with no hint of emotion or anger.
"The disciple was incompetent. He was knocked unconscious before he could see where he came from. When he woke up..."
Miao Luan didn't dare to raise his head, for fear that his expression would appear a little abnormal.
"This is strange."
Zuo Lingzhi's eyes flashed slightly: "Your head is worth a lot of money in Taixuan. I have robbed you but spared your life. Is this an enemy or a friend?"
There are very few monks who are ruthless and ruthless. Not only did Miao Luan survive, but his Yuan Yin was not damaged at all, which was a bit strange.
"This...disciple really doesn't know."
Miao Luan was at a loss. The master's attitude was very different from what she had imagined. She was already prepared to be punished before she came.
"No matter what, it's a blessing to be able to save your life. I see that your mind is not stable. I think you were frightened. Here is a bottle of calming pill. Take it and retreat to rest in peace."
Zuo Lingzhi sighed softly, took out a jade bottle, and handed it to Miao Luan through the air.
"This...master, this disciple deserves to be ashamed of himself."
Miao Luan was a little flattered for a moment. He had made a big mistake by losing a high-grade magic weapon. It was a blessing to not be punished.
"During this period of time, I, Taixu Zhenzhuan, have died thirteen years ago. I have to be more cautious in the recent period."
A trace of helplessness flashed in Zuo Lingzhi's eyes. If it had been before, she might have wanted to blame him, but now, she is very lucky to be able to come back safely.
"Thirteen people..."
Miao Luan was shocked. What happened to her was not an exception. Other true legends were far less lucky than her.
For a moment, she couldn't help but feel a little lucky, at least she was still alive.
"The major holy places have suffered considerable losses now, and they are all recalling their true successors from abroad to avoid the danger for the time being."
Zuo Lingzhi shook his head for a while. Judging from the current situation, the first round of confrontation between the Four Holy Lands and Taixuan was completely defeated.
In total, there are dozens of true legends that have fallen in holy places from all over the world. This does not include the many elders who died to protect these true legends.
And the chief true disciple of Taixuan Holy Land has been jumping around all the time, and now he even sings all the way and reaches the top of the Hidden Dragon Ranking.
Thinking of this, Zuo Lingzhi said casually:
"Have you heard any news about Chu Zheng during these days when you were away?"
Miao Luan was slightly startled and said in a steady voice: "No."
"That Chu Zheng has now attracted the attention of the Immortal Alliance. If nothing else happens, the Divine Infant will be picked up by the Immortal Alliance and go to the Little Immortal Realm to practice, just like Zhao Tingxian back then."
Zuo Lingzhi's eyes were solemn: "This person... will be a great person in the future."
"Master, are you so optimistic about Chu Zheng?"
Miao Luan couldn't help but feel something in his heart.
"It doesn't matter whether I think he's good or not. The bounties offered by the Four Holy Lands have failed to kill him. Now he's only one step away from transforming into a dragon."
With Chu Zheng's talent, it was certain that he would enter the Soul Condensation Realm before the Ten Thousand Sects Hidden Dragon Competition began.
At the early stage of entering the Taoist realm, he was already able to rival the great monks of the Condensing Soul realm. Once Chu Zheng stepped into the Condensing Soul realm, no one except Shang Zuling would be able to threaten him.
After the reward was issued, no one in the Taixu Holy Land believed that Chu Zheng could survive. Many inner disciples felt that they could easily kill Chu Zheng.
Nowadays, such words are no longer heard.
It was only a few months before and after, and the gap was so huge that it was unbelievable. Chu Zheng's growth rate was so terrifying, it was really very human.
Zuo Lingzhi was silent for a long time, and the hall fell into silence for a while.
After a while, Miao Luan quietly raised his head, glanced at the master who was lost in thought, kowtowed and said:
"Master, disciple, please leave first."
Zuo Lingzhi nodded slightly and closed his eyes.
Miao Luan slowly exited the hall, feeling slightly relaxed. The stronger Chu Zheng was, the safer her life would be.
The only thing she has to worry about now is how to double this life back to Chu Zheng in the future.
Chu Zheng has a huge appetite and is greedy. He is definitely not a person who is easily satisfied.
Previously, he was unwilling to leave even a cassock to her, which shows how ordinary he was.

Jize Country, Yanchi Island, Song Mansion.
In the front hall of the mansion, there are several figures scattered here and there. Song Tongxuan, Song Tonghai, and Song Lingfeng's brother and sister are all present.
At this moment, several people were looking at a young man standing not far away, with serious expressions on their faces.
This man was dressed in black and looked to be no more than seventeen or eighteen years old. He was extremely young, but his cultivation level should not be underestimated and he had reached the level of concentration.
"What do you call this...?" Song Tongxuan's face turned red and he seemed a little excited.
"Song Li."
The man spoke calmly, his eyes lingering on the Song Lingfeng brother and sister for a moment, and his expression softened:
"We are all close relatives of the same blood, so there is no need to be too restrictive."
"The True Immortal Family...could it be a mistake?"
Song Tonghai spoke hesitantly, which was completely different from Song Tongxuan's reaction beside him.
He was used to being cautious, so when such a person suddenly came to his door, his first reaction was to doubt whether what he said was true or false.
From Chu Zheng's mouth, he also heard part of the current situation of Lingqing and Lingxue, and was a little worried that the drunkard in front of him was not interested in drinking.
After all, he had never heard of the so-called main lineage of the Song family from his parents and elders.
"Tonghai, don't worry too much. With the cultivation level of this... Immortal of the same clan, how could he make a mistake."
Song Tongxuan waved his hand, with excitement that could not be hidden in his eyes:
"When I was young, I once heard my father say that an immortal had appeared in the Song family before. I didn't think much about it in these years. I just thought it was an immortal seedling. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a real immortal!"
What an honor this is to the True Immortal Family.
Over the years, he had spent countless efforts to establish a relationship with Qionglou's branch. Before the True Immortal Family, even the main line of Qionglou was not worth mentioning.
The difference is self-evident.
Hearing this, Song Tonghai's eyes flashed slightly and he stopped talking.
If you talk too much, you will be wrong. It is better to wait and see what happens. The Song Li in front of you is something the Song family cannot afford to offend now.
"I won't be mistaken. Their bloodline is very pure. They have returned to their ancestors. They must be the bloodline of the Song family."
Song Li pointed at the brother and sister Song Lingfeng and said slowly: "If they return to the family and use the secret method of their ancestors to enlighten their spirits, their qualifications can be further improved."
After hearing this, Song Lingfeng and Song Lingping both took a deep breath.
Qualifications go further, which determines the upper limit of the immortal path in the future. No one who is practicing can be calm.
Hearing this, Song Tongxuan became even more happy and asked slightly uneasily:
"Then...when can I return to the main line?"
"Not urgent."
Song Li shook his head slightly, and then took out a piece of silk cloth. There was a piece of blood-colored jade on the silk cloth, which was divided into six pieces:
"I came to the Southern Region and I still have things to do. Have you ever seen anything similar to this piece of jade at home? It should be a piece of broken jade."
"this……"
Song Tongxuan observed it carefully for a long time, and said with some uncertainty: "It seems that I have some impression, as if I have seen it before."
"Where?"
Song Li's eyes narrowed, and his mood, which had always been stable, fluctuated a little.
Seeing this, Song Tonghai on the side couldn't help but feel moved. He was afraid that the purpose of the man in front of him was to come here for this jade, not to find his relatives.
"At this moment, I can't remember anything."
Song Tongxuan frowned and thought hard. After a while, he shook his head and sighed:
"In these years of wandering around, I have lost a lot of things. Even if I have seen them, I don't know if they are still there. Are these things important?"
"Family heirloom blood jade is naturally important."
Song Li frowned slightly and spoke again:
"If you think about it carefully, if you can find this piece of jade, the status of the two of them in the Song family will change a lot, and their spiritual path will also benefit from it, and they will get strong support from the clan."
Just when Song Tongxuan was a little worried, Song Lingping stared at the silk cloth and suddenly said: "I saw it in the treasury."
Song Tongxuan looked slightly happy: "Seriously?"
Song Li's reaction was more direct, asking directly: "Where is the treasury?"
"Come with me."
Song Tongxuan did not dare to neglect and immediately turned around to lead the way.
The group of people quickly arrived in front of the treasury. Song Li used his magic power to take out everything in the treasury and look at it one by one.
After a while, he withdrew his hand, a little disappointed in his eyes: "No."
Song Tongxuan was also a little disappointed, and turned around to look at Song Lingping:
"Lingping, did you remember it wrong?"
"impossible."
Song Lingping shook his head: "My memory is not that bad. I saw it when I was looking for elixirs in the treasury the year before last. I can't be mistaken."
People who cultivate immortality will not have such a bad memory.
"Get the account of the treasury's entries and exits."
Song Tongxuan immediately turned around and called the steward.
The steward hurried over and presented the detailed accounts of the treasury.
The treasury of aristocratic families have strict records, and every transaction has its details.
Moreover, every year, the treasury will have a dedicated person to take inventory and records to ensure that there is no error in one tael of silver.
Song Tongxuan looked through last year's accounts, matched them one by one with the items in the treasury, and soon made a discovery.
"There is indeed a piece of jade missing, and there is no account for leaving the warehouse."
Hearing this, Song Li narrowed his eyes slightly: "Have any outsiders entered the treasury during this period?"
"No……"
Song Tongxuan replied subconsciously, and then his eyes changed: "There is only one Master Chu, but he didn't take anything."
"A person who cultivates immortality?"
Song Li's eyes suddenly focused: "Where is this person now?"
If you are a cultivator, you may indeed discover the difference in the blood jade. After all, it is the key to the secret realm, and it is itself a piece of spiritual jade.
"Been gone for a long time."
Song Tongxuan replied, looking at Song Tonghai, frowning slightly: "Tonghai, did that Master Chu tell you where he was going?"
"this……"
Song Tonghai's heart sank, but there was a look of embarrassment on his face:
"I am not familiar with this Immortal. I only met him by chance and we went together. However, I think this person would not commit such a theft."
Song Li obviously had no intention of getting entangled here. He looked at Song Tongxuan and said bluntly: "Is there a portrait of this person?"
"portrait……"
Song Tongxuan's eyes changed and he immediately said: "I'll find a painter right now!"
"No need, I have the portrait."
Song Lingfeng on the side turned over his hand and took out a portrait and sighed softly:
"This person has been hunted down with a reward outside. I guess he is not a kind person. I cared about my uncle before, so I didn't make things difficult for him and let him go."
At this moment, he vaguely regretted it. If he had known that Chu Zheng had a normal relationship with his uncle, he should have gathered several of his fellow disciples that day and left this person behind.
The moment he saw the portrait, Song Li lost his voice for a moment:
"Chu Zheng?!"
The information channels he has access to are far wider than those of the Song family.
Not long ago, Song Xian, a member of the clan, was obstructed by the Chu government in the Taixuan Holy Land in the Great Zhou Dynasty while searching for blood relatives of the Song family. This has already spread within the Song family.
Song Li had long heard about Chu Zheng's reward, and it even involved a dispute over the Holy Land.
"Do you know this person?" Song Lingfeng was a little surprised for a moment.
A few days ago, because of the elixir given by his uncle, he had been practicing in seclusion and knew nothing about the changes in the outside world. At this moment, he still had no idea about Chu Zheng's true identity.
"This person is the true successor of Taixuan Holy Land."
After calming down, Song Li's eyes flashed slightly.
It’s Taixuan Holy Land again…
It seems that now, we must ask the elders of the clan to make a trip.
Chu Zhenggui is the true heir apparent of a holy land, but he is connected to an unknown family like the Song Family in the Southern Territory.
Its purpose, apart from that secret realm, Song Li could not think of other possibilities.
This person is still alive despite the joint bounty offered by several major holy places. He must not be a good person. His own strength is far from enough.
