Chapter 333 Ten Years
Song Qingming, who was in the cave of Funiu Mountain, looked at the dozen small jade bottles sent to him, with a little surprise on his face, and whispered to Song Qingsi beside him:
"There are so many monster spirits collected in the past few days. The family's monster hunting team has been much more diligent than before!"
"Well! Since the release of this task, everyone has been very active, and many young people in the family have taken the initiative to come to the Golden Pavilion to exchange for the soul-collecting technique." Song Qingsi replied calmly.
Song Qingming nodded gently, showing satisfaction. "I have so many this month, which is enough. Qingsi, please pay attention to it. Next, limit the number of monster spirits collected each month. Don't let everyone like this task and affect the normal operation of other parts of the family."
"Okay, I'll notify them right away!" Song Qingsi nodded and responded quickly after listening.
"Well, go and get busy first. I think your cultivation level is not far from a breakthrough. I have a few pills that should be useful for your cultivation. I'll treat them as a reward for your hard work.
For people of our generation who practice Taoism, the path is the first priority. Don't let these trivial matters delay your own cultivation. If the Cangjin Pavilion is too busy recently, tell your elder brother and ask him to send someone to help you."
Looking at the small porcelain bottle handed to her by Song Qingming, Song Qingsi took it and bowed with a smile to express her gratitude, then nodded and left Song Qingming's cave.
In recent years, as several long-term cultivators in charge have gradually died, their generation of cultivators has basically handed over the affairs they manage to the next generation, and the person in charge of Cangjin Pavilion has also changed from the clan leader Song Changfeng to Song Qingsi recommended by Song Qingming.
The fourteenth old Song Qingsi also followed Song Qingming for a long time in the early years to learn the way of formation. Although the two are of the same generation in the clan, they are actually a master-disciple relationship.
Although Song Qingsi's spiritual talent is not as good as the tenth brother Song Qingyu, she has been careful and steady since she was a child. In addition, she has been following Song Qingming for many years and has some knowledge in managing family affairs. Song Qingming is still relatively relieved when the Golden Pavilion is handed over to her.
In order to practice the Soul Devouring Technique given to him by Feng He, Song Qingming must often go out to hunt monsters and collect their spirits. Although he has a high level of cultivation and can quickly kill such low-level monsters, it is not so easy to collect the spirits from these corpses. Sometimes killing five or six low-level monsters may return empty-handed. It is too inefficient for one person to do this.
Later, after thinking about it, Song Qingming simply issued a task to capture the spirits of monsters in the family's Golden Pavilion, and put the corresponding soul-collecting technique directly into the Golden Pavilion, so that other cultivators of the Song family can also participate in this task to help him solve this more troublesome problem. After all, he is also the controller of a cultivation family. It is too wasteful to leave so many people unused.
Now Song Qingming needs the lowest level of the first-grade lower-grade monster spirit to practice the Soul Devouring Technique. Most Qi Refining cultivators can kill this kind of monster alone, and the Soul Collection Technique is not a difficult spell to practice. In just one month, many cultivators of the Song family have already learned this spell.
Seeing that the Tibetan Gold Pavilion suddenly released such a task with a very generous reward and low difficulty, many Song family cultivators were attracted to it. For a while, the monsters near the Funiushan Mountain suffered a serious blow, which also made the Song family territory much more peaceful.
With their help to do this troublesome thing, Song Qingming can finally practice the Soul Devouring Technique wholeheartedly.
After bidding farewell to Song Qingsi, Song Qingming sat cross-legged on the cushion in the cave with his eyes closed. After casting a spell, the soul in Song Qingming's body slowly emerged and separated from the body.
Song Qingming had practiced the Soul Forging Technique before, and his soul was three times stronger than that of ordinary foundation-building cultivators. Now that he was using this soul-leaving technique, he was naturally familiar with it.
Under Song Qingming's control, a jade bottle containing the spirit of a monster had been opened, and a dim light ball instantly ran out of the bottle. It was the spirit of the monster captured by the Song family cultivators before.
After being locked in the bottle for so long, the small light ball had already become a little manic, but before it could move after being freed, a somewhat transparent big hand had already firmly grasped it in its hand.
Seeing that something wanted to restrain itself again, the small green light ball immediately began to struggle, but compared to the transparent giant that grabbed it, this small light ball was too weak, and it was soon crushed and swallowed into its mouth.
After swallowing the spirit of the monster, Song Qingming quickly took back his soul outside his body, and then began a long period of meditation and refining.
In this way, spring passed and autumn came, and after a long period of hard training, Song Qingming finally cultivated the Soul-Devouring Art to the second level ten years later.
Song Qingming, who successfully cultivated the Soul Devouring Technique to the second level, found that he could release his consciousness forty to fifty feet away after actively releasing it. Ordinary cultivators of the same level as him, if they did not practice the soul cultivation method, could only release it ten to twenty feet away at most. His soul was almost twice as far as theirs. Seeing that his years of hard work had finally yielded good results, Song Qingming was satisfied and put away the cultivation method and walked out of the door of his cave.
"Seeing that the seventh brother is so happy, is his cultivation level about to break through again?" Song Qingyu, who was meditating on the top of the mountain, noticed the movement of Song Qingming and walked towards him with a smile.
After seeing Song Qingyu, Song Qingming also chuckled and shook his head slightly, saying: "This time it's just that the previous practice has made progress. I have been sitting in the cave for these years. It is difficult to break through the cultivation through hard practice. I don't know when I will have the opportunity to break through to the late stage of foundation building.
Tomorrow, I decided to go to Yangshanfang again to see if there are any elixirs that can help break through. If you want to buy something, I will help you find it."
"I am running out of elixirs for my practice. Bring me some more. When you come back, I will give you spirit stones. Then help me see if there are any second-level water-attributed monster furs. Recently, I have some insights into my talisman making skills. I want to try to see if I can break through to become a second-level talisman maker." Song Qingyu thought for a moment and quickly said the spiritual objects he needed.
"Okay! I'll take note. Don't save the elixirs you need for future cultivation. If you don't have enough spirit stones, just tell me directly."
Seeing that Song Qingming was in a good mood after coming out of retreat this time, Song Qingyu hesitated for a moment, but made up his mind and asked Song Qingming: "Seventh Brother! What do you think about the matter I told you last time?"
