Chapter 512 Heavenly Karma, Refining Corpse Puppet

Just as Song Yuanfang shouted in surprise, Song Qingming had already walked in front of Song Yuanhao and stretched out a hand and placed it directly on his forehead.

"Yes! It's a thunder spirit root. No wonder you can practice so fast even though the attribute of the spell you practice is wrong!" Song Qingming put down his hand after a while and said with a smile on his face.

Song Yuanhao, who was still in shock, was also a little confused when he heard that he was a thunder spirit root cultivator.

After practicing for so many years, most of the common sense of cultivation that Song Yuanhao knew was taught by his mother. He did not receive family school education from a young age like the normal Song family cultivators in Funiushan, and learned various basic knowledge in the world of cultivation.

Although he had heard the name of the strange spirit root before, Song Yuanhao did not know much about this kind of spirit root. He just saw a little from the abnormal behavior of Song Yuanfang and Song Qingming that his spirit root seemed to be very rare.

Although the cultivators with different spiritual roots are not as rare as those with natural spiritual roots in the world of Weiguo, they are also very rare. Among the tens of thousands of cultivators in Xiaoyao Sect, there are only a dozen of them.

In terms of cultivation speed, cultivators with different spiritual roots are actually not much different from cultivators with dual spiritual roots, but cultivators with different spiritual roots often have a slight advantage in fighting. In Xiaoyao Sect, such cultivators are generally the first targets for cultivating Jindan.

Excluding guest elders like Song Qingming, among the nine Jindan elders in Xiaoyao Sect, three are cultivators with different spiritual roots, namely the head of the sect Yao Qianshu, the law enforcement elder Li Wutong and Zhao Menglian.

Although it is not easy for cultivators with different spiritual roots to form a Jindan, as long as they can worship a slightly better master, they can at least successfully build a foundation and cultivate to the peak of foundation building.

"Yuanhao, your spiritual roots are very special. You may have a chance to successfully form a pill in the future. For your safety, you must stay on the mountain before building your foundation. You are not allowed to go down the mountain without my permission."

Hearing what Song Qingming said, Song Yuanhao's face changed. He was about to speak, but was interrupted by Song Qingming.

"Don't worry, I will arrange for your mother. You should be able to see her in a month at most. Don't go back this time, so as to avoid any accidents on the road."

After hearing this, Song Yuanhao hesitated for a moment, but still didn't say much. He nodded slightly and agreed to Song Qingming's arrangement.

Song Yuanfang walked up and said cautiously: "Seventh uncle, now there are many people in the family, Yuanhao's spiritual roots, should we keep it secret?"

"No need, even if it is a cultivator with different spiritual roots, the family now has enough ability to protect him. As long as Yuanhao doesn't go down the mountain, no one dares to come to Funiu Mountain to attack him." Song Qingming waved his hand confidently.

Although cultivators with different spiritual roots are rare, it is not a big surprise for the Song family, as a Jindan family, to have one.

If Song Yuanhao is like Bai Yuxian, a cultivator with natural spiritual roots that even Yuanying old monsters are interested in, then Song Qingming can only choose to send him directly to Xiaoyao Sect for his safety.

As the first cultivator with different spiritual roots in the family, Song Qingming still wants to keep Song Yuanhao in the family. He can't say that he can support him to form a pill successfully in the future, but there will be no problem in building a foundation. The only thing he needs to solve is the problem of his future practice.

The Song family has been established for more than 300 years. Now they have all the five elements of the foundation-building period. However, the practice of cultivating cultivators with different spiritual roots has not been collected yet. Because cultivators with different spiritual roots are rare, this type of practice is basically not found in the market, and they have to find a way to go to the Xiaoyao Sect's Good Merit Pavilion to look for it.

After pacifying Song Yuanhao, Song Qingming arranged for Song Yuanfang to take several Qi-refining cultivators from the Song family and the middle-aged man named Chen who came with Song Yuanhao to Tuoyun Mountain the next morning.

In order to facilitate their journey, Song Qingming also specially lent his second-level flying boat to Song Yuanfang. With this flying boat, Song Yuanfang and his companions could not only speed up their journey, but also pick up Song Yuanhao's mother, which would save her from the pain of running around on the road.

After Song Yuanfang went to Tuoyun Mountain, he found Chen Yanyun very smoothly. When Chen Yanyun learned that Song Yuanfang was here to pick her up and go to the Song family, she was also very shocked. She did not expect that the Song family would attach so much importance to her, the widow left outside, that they would actually send a foundation-building cultivator to pick her up.

When Song Xinhe was still alive, although he told Chen Yanyun that he was born in a family of immortals, he did not tell her the details of the Song family. Chen Yanyun did not know that Song Xinhe, who had never thought of asking his family for help in building his foundation, was actually born in a Jindan immortal family.

Thinking of the difficulties that her mother and son had experienced in Tuoyun Mountain over the years, Chen Yanyun felt a sense of emotion. Fortunately, Song Yuanhao has now successfully returned to the Song family, and the days have finally come to a happy end.

After taking Song Yuanfang and others to dig up Song Xinhe's bones, Chen Yanyun bid farewell to his relatives and friends in Tuoyun Mountain and followed the Song family to board the flying boat back to Funiushan.

On the way, Song Yuanfang, in accordance with Song Qingming's instructions, also told Chen Yanyun about Song Yuanhao's "thunder spirit root" that was detected. Chen Yanyun was also overjoyed to learn that his child would have the hope of successfully building a foundation in the future.

After Song Xinhe's bones were brought back to Funiu Mountain, under the instruction of Song Qingming, the Song family held a grand funeral for this member who died outside, and reburied his bones in the family cemetery at the foot of the mountain.

After the lively funeral, a figure with a somewhat vicissitudes of life appeared in front of Song Xinhe's brand-new tombstone.

"Nineteenth brother, I didn't expect that I would never have the chance to see you again after we parted."

"I didn't expect that you would choose to risk your life to build your foundation. You have the determination and courage. If the family had chosen to give you the foundation-building pill, maybe you would have succeeded!"

"Compared with you, I, a former loser, really feel that I have no face to reminisce with you, but you didn't even give me a chance to apologize."

"."

Looking at the tombstone of Song Xinhe in front of him, Song Xintang, who was already full of white hair, sat alone, crying as he spoke, crying like a child.

After sitting there and talking for a long time, Song Xintang finally wiped away the tears from his eyes and stood up. Just as he was about to leave, Song Yuanfang, with a smile on his face, suddenly came here to find him.

"Uncle Nine, Uncle Seven has something to talk to you about. Please go to the meeting room."

In the meeting room of the Song family, Song Xintang looked at Song Yuanhao in front of him, and then looked at Song Qingming who was sitting at the top, and said hesitantly:

"Uncle Seven, should we reconsider this matter? Yuanhao is so talented, it is more appropriate to let Yuan Fang and Yuan Xue take care of him. Although I am a little older now, I can still contribute to the family, and there is no need to go back to the mountains to retire so early."

"Although Yuan Fang and Yuan Xue are more suitable, they have to take care of a lot of family affairs in addition to their daily practice. Now they are a little too busy. I am also a little worried that they can't do this well. After all, Yuanhao is the first cultivator with different spiritual roots in the family, and someone still needs to take care of him. You are also a cultivator with rich experience in all aspects in the family. I feel more at ease to leave it to you."

Whenever the family finds a younger generation with better spiritual roots, the Song family will specially arrange an elder to be responsible for the year-round teaching. This time, the elder chosen by Song Qingming for Song Yuanhao is Song Xintang in front of him.

Since going to Qinghefang, Song Xintang has been doing some shady things for the family in the market these years. He rarely returns to the family these years. Unexpectedly, he was reassigned an important task by Song Qingming when he returned this time.

Seeing that Song Qingming insisted on teaching Song Yuanhao himself, Song Xintang did not refuse again and nodded and agreed directly.

"Go back to Qinghefang tomorrow. I will ask Yuanfang to arrange someone to replace you. You have worked hard outside these years. Don't be busy with other things when you come back. Just concentrate on teaching Yuanhao!"

Song Xintang is almost a hundred years old. The reason why Song Qingming made such an arrangement is partly for his sake, and he wants him to return to the family early to spend his old age.

The "Xin" generation of the Song family has gradually aged. The oldest, Song Xinhu, has passed away in the mountains a few years ago. Except for Song Xinyu in Xiaoyao Sect, none of the "Xin" generation of the family has successfully established their foundation. In another 20 to 30 years, this generation will completely disappear in Funiu Mountain.

Although their generation caught up with the good times of the family's development, they also paid a lot of blood for the family. In this monster turmoil alone, several people in the "Xin" generation died in the battle, and only a small half of them survived to the end of their lives.

Not long after Song Yuanhao returned to the family, Song Qingming received another good news. After more than a year, the third-level array plate in Bai Yuxian's hands was finally successfully repaired.

After receiving the voice transmission from Bai Yuxian, Song Qingming immediately rushed to Xiaoyao Sect and got the third-level array plate he had always wanted from Bai Yuxian.

This time, Song Qingming also gained a lot from meeting Bai Yuxian. Not only did he successfully obtain the third-level array plate, but Bai Yuxian also helped him configure the array flags.

After the two met, Song Qingming also took the opportunity to humbly ask Bai Yuxian about the array method. Bai Yuxian was not stingy with this. Not only did he answer Song Qingming's questions, but he also taught him some more common third-level array diagrams, which also benefited Song Qingming, who majored in the array method.

After leaving Bai Yuxian's cave, Song Qingming came to the Good Merit Pavilion of Xiaoyao Sect again, wanting to exchange for a few spiritual objects he needed here.

Since he got the secret technique of refining corpse puppets from Chen Xuanxin a year ago, Song Qingming immediately mobilized the entire Song family to collect various materials needed for the secret technique. Now most of them have been collected, and only a few kinds of materials that are difficult to buy in the market are left. If Song Qingming wants to refine the corpse puppet he wants quickly, he can only try his luck in the Good Merit Pavilion.

"Uncle Song, some of these spiritual items are rarely exchanged, and they are all piled up in the warehouse on the second floor. It may take some time to find them. Please wait patiently for a moment." The foundation-building cultivator in charge of guarding the Good Merit Pavilion took the note handed over by Song Qingming, and after seeing the materials written on it, he said with a somewhat embarrassed look.

"It doesn't matter! I'm not in a hurry to go back. As long as you can find it, you can take your time to look for it, so that I don't have to go to other places to worry about it."

Just as Song Qingming was about to go to the side to drink tea and wait, another green-clothed woman in the foundation-building stage came down from the second floor of the Good Merit Pavilion. When she saw Song Qingming standing in front of her, she hurriedly stepped forward and saluted.

"Disciple Hu Ying, meet Uncle Song!"

Song Qingming waved his hand, and when his eyes swept across Hu Ying's face, he suddenly paused for a moment, then turned into a smile and slowly said: "Oh! It's really a coincidence that I met you here. Daoist Fellow Zi Yan, how are you recently?"

This green-clothed woman was Xu Zi Yan's junior sister Hu Ying, who had met Song Qingming once. After decades, Hu Ying's cultivation level has also been improved from the fifth level of foundation-building to the seventh level of foundation-building.

Although it was only a one-time encounter at the beginning, after reaching the foundation-building stage, cultivators basically have the ability to remember everything they have seen. As long as it is not too long, they will generally not easily forget the appearance of a person they have dealt with.

When Song Qingming attended a Tiandan League auction, he happened to run into her and Xu Ziyan when he was about to leave. When the three of them returned to Guyang Mountain together, they encountered several foundation-building monks who wanted to rob their spiritual objects on the road. After a fierce battle, they finally escaped from danger.

The reason why they were attacked was that Xu Ziyan got a spiritual object "Golden Sun Fire Essence" at that auction. Unfortunately, although Xu Ziyan got this object by chance, she did not succeed in forming a pill in seclusion later.

When Hu Ying heard Song Qingming asked about Xu Ziyan, a complicated look suddenly appeared on his face. After struggling for a moment, he slowly replied: "Reporting to Uncle Song, Sister Xu has been a little unwell recently. She has encountered some troubles. I have been in the mood to talk to her in the past few days."

"Oh! What troubles did fellow Daoist Ziyan encounter? Can you tell me?"

After looking up at Song Qingming, Hu Ying did not hesitate in his heart and directly told Song Qingming everything about Xu Ziyan.

Since the last failure of forming a pill, Xu Ziyan has been working hard to carry out the sect's tasks and accumulate merits to exchange for pill-forming spiritual objects. Finally, in the past few years, she has accumulated enough good deeds and reserved a five-element pill-forming spiritual object in the Good Deeds Pavilion.

Half a year ago, the head of the sect, Yao Qianshu and others brought back some pill-forming spiritual objects from the Wu Kingdom, among which there happened to be a "Heavenly Fire Mysterious Pearl" that matched Xu Ziyan's practice. This object, like the "Golden Sun Fire Essence" she got that year, is also a precious five-element spiritual object that can assist cultivators in forming a pill. Moreover, Xu Ziyan's refining of this object to form a pill is better than that of the "Golden Sun Fire Essence".

After learning the news, Xu Ziyan was also very happy in her heart, and hurried to the Cangjin Pavilion to exchange for this spiritual object. Unexpectedly, because there were more disciples exchanging for the pill-forming spiritual objects this time, the Good Deeds Pavilion also temporarily increased the good deeds required to exchange for the "Heavenly Fire Mysterious Pearl".

As a result, Xu Ziyan's accumulated merits were not enough all of a sudden. Originally, some of her merits were temporarily borrowed from her friends. It was difficult to find someone to borrow merits in a short period of time. The Merit Pavilion now only gave her ten days to raise merits, otherwise this spiritual object would have to be given to others.

Xu Ziyan was shocked to hear this news. Even in the Merit Pavilion of Xiaoyao Sect, it was rare to have the opportunity to exchange for a spiritual object such as "Heavenly Fire Mysterious Pearl" for Dan. If she missed this opportunity for no reason, Xu Ziyan might have a hard time getting this spiritual object next time.

There were not many spiritual objects in Weiguo that could assist cultivators in Dan. Five-element Dan spiritual objects such as "Heavenly Fire Mysterious Pearl" were already considered to have a relatively good effect. Generally, casual cultivators or foundation-building cultivators of cultivation families who wanted to impact the Golden Core realm could only rely on spiritual objects such as "Jade Dust Pill" of a lower grade.

After hearing Hu Ying's detailed account of Xu Ziyan's difficulties, Song Qingming nodded calmly and said, "Martial Nephew Hu, can you help me ask Daoist Fellow Ziyan to come to the Good Merit Pavilion and tell her that I have something to ask her!"

"Ah! Uncle, please wait a moment. I'll be back soon." After hearing that Song Qingming had something to ask Xu Ziyan, Hu Ying was stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted and hurriedly left the Good Merit Pavilion with a happy face.

Less than half an incense stick of time, Hu Ying returned to the Good Merit Pavilion in a hurry with someone.

Because he had not been able to collect enough good deeds to exchange for the "Heavenly Fire Mysterious Pearl", Xu Ziyan's expression was obviously much more haggard. Seeing Song Qingming, who had become a Jindan senior, he hurried forward and saluted.

"Zi Yan greets Master Song. I wonder what Master Uncle wants me to do?"

Song Qingming stepped forward and waved his hand with a smile, saying, "We have known each other for many years, so there is no need to be so polite. Although I have joined the sect, I am not a disciple to you. It is okay to continue to address you as a Taoist friend."

"Well, since Taoist friend Song thinks so highly of me, Zi Yan will take the liberty to address you as a Taoist friend!" Xu Ziyan smiled brightly, and regained a trace of her usual expression.

"Just now I heard from Master Hu that Taoist friend Xu needs to exchange for a Jindan spiritual object at the Good Merit Pavilion, and he is still short of good merits. I wonder how much you are short of now?"

Hearing Song Qingming's words, Xu Ziyan looked at Hu Ying beside her with some surprise in her heart. The two of them were in a hurry on the way here, and Hu Ying did not have time to tell her in detail what had just happened. Xu Ziyan did not know that Song Qingming actually came to her for this matter.

Facing Song Qingming's inquiry, Xu Ziyan knew that the other party might want to help her intentionally, so she replied without hesitation: "I have found a way to borrow some from someone these days, and I am still short of 2,000 merits."

Song Qingming nodded slightly, took out his sect token from his body, and said to Xu Ziyan beside him: "I just happen to have 2,000 merits on me, you can go with me."

Seeing Song Qingming who had already walked in front, Xu Ziyan was also very excited and hurried to follow him.

With the help of the monks on duty in the Good Merit Pavilion, Xu Ziyan's sect token soon had 2,000 merits. She finally collected enough merits to exchange for the "Heavenly Fire Mysterious Pearl" and was very happy.

In Xiaoyao Sect, foundation-building monks like Xu Ziyan who have no Jindan master to take care of them can basically only rely on themselves when they encounter the critical moment of Jindan. Under normal circumstances, it is difficult to compete with those Jindan elders' direct disciples for Jindan spiritual objects.

In order to raise merits, Xu Ziyan has tried her best to find people to help her in the sect. There are only three days left before the date set by the Merit Pavilion. Xu Ziyan, who is still short of 2,000 merits, is already at a loss.

She thought she would miss the "Heavenly Fire Mysterious Pearl" she had been thinking about, but she didn't expect that she would meet Song Qingming, who generously helped her to make up for the missing merits. It must be said that Xu Ziyan was favored by heaven.

When Song Qingming was young, Xu Ziyan helped him a lot. Song Qingming has always remembered this kindness in his heart. Now that he heard that she was in trouble, Song Qingming naturally wanted to do his best to help her.

It is often better to help in times of trouble than to add icing on the cake. Two thousand merits are nothing to Song Qingming now, but it is a major event related to Xu Ziyan's path. Xu Ziyan is also very grateful to Song Qingming for his help this time.

"Today's good deeds are considered as borrowed from Fellow Daoist Song. Zi Yan will never forget your help."

"Haha! It's just a small favor. Fellow Daoist Xu, please don't take it too seriously. I needed your help when I was building my foundation. Now that I can help you, I naturally have no choice but to do the same. This can be regarded as the karma of heaven!" Seeing that Xu Zi Yan was about to bow again, Song Qingming waved his hand to stop her.

After Xu Zi Yan and the others left, the monk from the Good Deeds Pavilion who was looking for spiritual objects for Song Qingming finally came down from the second floor.

This time, Song Qingming was lucky. He found the materials he needed in the Good Deeds Pavilion. In addition, Song Qingming also exchanged a foundation-building thunder attribute technique for Song Yuanhao in the Good Deeds Pavilion, "Heavenly Fire Thunder Art".

In the Good Merit Pavilion of Xiaoyao Sect, all the techniques below the Jindan stage can be directly recorded after using good merit to exchange, but this recorded technique has special restrictions and can only be viewed by one person at most. Song Qingming can only give the "Heavenly Fire Thunder Art" to Song Yuanhao for practice, and cannot pass it on to other clansmen.

Moreover, the recorded "Heavenly Fire Thunder Art" can only be practiced to the ninth level of foundation building. If Song Yuanhao is lucky enough to form a golden elixir in the future, he will also need to obtain the subsequent techniques of the Jindan stage required for practice in the Good Merit Pavilion of Xiaoyao Sect.

After successfully obtaining these materials and returning to Funiu Mountain, Song Qingming immediately went into seclusion and became busy.

Half a month later, Song Qingming, who was in his cave, looked at the corpse of a young monk lying on the stone platform in front of him, and whispered to himself: "I hope it will succeed this time!"

After that, Song Qingming took out a green talisman and pasted it directly on the forehead of the corpse. Then he quickly cast a spell with both hands, and cast a set of spells, injecting his mana directly into a magic circle under the corpse.

Soon, the five formation flags inserted around the corpse slowly emitted a strange green light, forming a pentagonal green light circle.

Half an hour later, as the green light circle became brighter and brighter, Song Qingming suddenly shouted.

"Five souls gather the corpse, get up for me!"

I found that many new book friends have come recently. If it is convenient, why not join a book friend group and chat together 236038447
