Chapter 121 Mugu Town

"Old friend of Xiaoyao Sect, did you meet her in Guiyunfang?"

Hearing that Song Qingming was going to travel far away, Song Changfeng did not immediately agree to him, but asked with some concern.

"Indeed, I met her in Guiyunfang. When I was in Feiyunwei, she was the captain of Feiyunwei. She took good care of me at that time. Later, when I left Guiyunfang, she had returned to Xiaoyao Sect. I heard that she succeeded in building a foundation. I don't know if she will remember me when we meet again." Song Qingming sighed after saying this. When the two met, they were all Qi-refining cultivators and could help each other. Now their status is very different.

Hearing that Song Qingming actually met a Xiaoyao Sect foundation-building senior, Song Changfeng's face also showed a trace of surprise. It is not a simple thing for a small Qi-refining family like the Song family to have some relationship with the Xiaoyao Sect foundation-building cultivator. If the Song family could have a relationship with a foundation-building senior hundreds of years ago, they would not have fallen into a small place like Qinghe County.

When the Song family's foundation-building ancestor was still alive, he had many good foundation-building friends in Xiaoyao Sect. However, after he passed away, the descendants of the Song family went to these predecessors when they were excluded in Xiaoyao Sect, but no one was willing to come out to help them. In the end, they had no choice but to migrate to Qinghe County.

"It's good to go and see it when you have time. If this predecessor is willing to see you, it will be a chance for you. Haha, how much benefit you can get depends on your own luck." Seeing that Song Qingming was a little lacking in confidence in this matter, Song Changfeng hurriedly smiled and comforted him.

After hearing this, the old patriarch Song Gushan came over and shook his head and said: "Qingming, the monster turmoil has just ended, and there are still many small groups of monsters left outside. It's too dangerous for you to travel far now. If things are not so urgent, wait for a while until the outside is stable."

"Fourth uncle is right, Qingming, otherwise you should wait a while, it's really too dangerous outside now." Song Changfeng also nodded and agreed with Song Gushan's opinion.

Seeing that the two elders were so concerned about his safety, Song Qingming did not insist any more. After all, there was no point in him being too anxious about some things.

Since he got the relics of the Xiaoyao Sect monk in the deep mountains west of Jinshanfang, Song Qingming did not dare to tell anyone about it. He had been thinking about how to deal with it for nearly a year. In the end, he decided to go to the Xiaoyao Sect mountain gate and find a familiar Xiaoyao Sect monk to inquire about the situation and see how he should deal with these things.

This year, Song Qingming had wanted to open it to see what treasures this senior had that caused him to be killed. However, the storage bag on the senior and the jade box he took out had very powerful restrictions on them. When he was still in Guiyunfang, Song Qingming had heard that many spiritual objects of the monks from large sects had very mysterious restrictions. If he rashly cracked them, it might trigger the restrictions. Maybe the monks from Xiaoyao Sect would find him soon. By then, he would not be able to explain himself. Therefore, he had been holding back his curiosity and did not dare to try to open these things.

The old patriarch's worries were unreasonable. During this monster turmoil, there were many monsters from Yunwu Mountain in Qinghe County alone. Just a few days before Song Qingming and his team returned to Funiushan, a group of monsters attacked Lingyuan Mountain. The patriarch Song Changfeng personally took action to repel these monsters.

Not only the monsters, but also many bandits like Yingchaoling took advantage of the chaos caused by the monsters heading south to fish in troubled waters. Now the entire northern part of Weiguo is not so stable yet. It is difficult to determine whether the missing monks on the road were attacked by monsters or encountered other dangers.

After Uncle Nine Song Changxin took over the Cangjin Pavilion, the rewards for this conscription were quickly distributed. Everyone who participated in the battle was given a lot of spirit stones. Song Qingming contributed a lot in several battles and received 200 spirit stones alone. Although he has saved thousands of spirit stones now, no one would think that spirit stones are too much.

Fifth Aunt Song Changling led people to spend more than ten days around Funiu Mountain. After several turns, they finally selected a better location next to a branch on the west side of Funiu Mountain. After returning, they began to arrange manpower and organize a large number of mortals to build the town first.

Song Qingming also received the task of refining a spirit gathering array. When he was in Lingyuan Mountain, he helped his sixth brother Song Qinghe to set up a spirit gathering array. However, it was only used to cultivate spirit fields at that time. The quality requirements for the spirit gathering array were not high. It could be directly set up with ordinary array flags refined in hand. This kind of spirit gathering array is more common. Song Qingming would also set up this kind of array in the cave every time he broke through his cultivation.

The spirit gathering array that he is now refining, which can cultivate spirit veins, will be of much higher quality. It will take at least two months to refine such a set. Fortunately, he has the help of the incomplete map. It only took him more than ten days to refine the array flags and array plates. In order not to arouse suspicion from others, he needs to wait a little longer before handing it over to the family.

Soon two months passed, and the new mortal village was built. After discussing with the fifth aunt Song Changling and the clan leader Song Changfeng, they named this place "Mugu Town" to commemorate the many ancient cultivators who have dedicated their lives to the family over the years.

With the help of several clan members who knew some formations, Song Qingming finally successfully arranged the spirit gathering formation after some effort. After the formation began to operate, Song Qingming put hundreds of spirit stones that the family had prepared long ago into the center of the formation. As the spirit gathering formation continued to operate and refine the spirit stones, a pure spiritual energy soon spread from it.

Then Song Qingming inserted silver formation flags around Mugu Town and soon arranged a medium-grade formation. With the continuous supply of spiritual energy in the spirit vein, this formation can operate continuously for twelve hours without consuming spirit stones.

Second sister Song Qingwan looked around Qinghefang, but still couldn't find a suitable high-grade mountain protection formation. In the end, she could only find a high-grade formation master from the Huang family to reserve a high-grade formation. It would take another half a year to refine it. Song Qingming could only take out a medium-grade formation in the family's gold storage pavilion and arrange it here first.

There were not many formation masters in the Song family. With the death of the great elder who had the best formation skills in the family, and the death of the formation master Song Changyun, the twelfth aunt, in Longteng Mountain, the only one left who could set up formations was Song Qingming himself. For this reason, Song Qingming also raised this point in the family meeting a few days ago. Now the family urgently needs to train new formation masters.

However, the profession of formation master is indeed not very popular. There are not many people in the younger generation who are interested in formations. The clan leader Song Changfeng can only increase some of the family's subsidies for formations, and then sent a few apprentices to Song Qingming. Among them, the one with the best formation talent is the fourteenth sister Song Qingsi.

Song Qingsi is only fifteen years old this year, and her cultivation has reached the third level of Qi Refining. After learning formations from Song Qingming for a few months, she can already draw some formation patterns smoothly. Her talent in formations should be stronger than Song Qingming's back then. It is estimated that in one or two years at most, she should be able to become a low-grade formation master.
