Chapter 597: Thousand-Year Spiritual Beast Egg, Zhang Tieyang's Thoughts (Combined Chapter)

Song Qingming's answer made Zhang Tieyang, who was holding the wine glass, stunned for a long time before he slowly came back to his senses and nodded:

"That being said, it is rare that Fellow Daoist Song has only been practicing for more than a hundred years and can experience so much.

To be honest, I have been practicing for so many years and have often traveled around and dealt with many kinds of cultivators, whether they are Qi Refining, Foundation Building, or Jindan cultivators like us.

It is rare to be able to practice like Fellow Daoist Song and still remember your original intention after so many years of practice. Most people will still take care of themselves and have no time to care about these irrelevant low-level cultivators' paths."

Hearing what Zhang Tieyang said, Song Qingming and Chu Fengping and others also nodded slightly in silence.

What Zhang Tieyang said is indeed the norm in the world of immortal cultivation. Once the cultivation reaches the Jindan realm like them, they are already considered high-level cultivators in the world of immortal cultivation.

Standing at a higher level, their views on many things will indeed gradually change.

Moreover, Jindan cultivators like Song Qingming are already the controllers of a region. The following matters can be arranged for other younger generations of the family to do, and he does not need to handle them personally.

In addition, once Jindan cultivators practice in seclusion, it will take several years or even more than ten years. Except for those close to them, they basically do not need to contact other low-level cultivators.

Over time, they treat these low-level cultivators with low cultivation as ordinary mortals faced by a Qi-refining cultivator who has entered the Tao. Naturally, they will not care too much.

The banquet of this foundation-building celebration lasted from the afternoon to the morning of the next day, and it was slowly coming to an end.

After personally seeing off several familiar guests, Song Qingming invited Chu Fengping and several other Jindan cultivators to come to the Song family meeting room to taste tea.

The trivial matters that followed were all handed over to Song Yuanfang and others to deal with.

Several Jindan cultivators had a rare opportunity to sit together and drink tea and chat, and naturally they did not forget to exchange their cultivation experiences. This also benefited Song Qingyu, Huang Siyuan and other foundation-building cultivators who were qualified to come in and listen.

After chatting with everyone for a while, Song Qingming suddenly took out a yellow spirit beast egg that was slightly smaller than an egg from his body, put it in front of everyone, and introduced it with a smile:

"I accidentally got a spirit beast egg some time ago, and I didn't know what it was. Today there are many people, so it's just right for everyone to help me see what this thing is and whether there is a way to hatch it."

This spirit beast egg was what Song Qingming got from the white spherical storage magic weapon before, but he still didn't know what kind of spirit beast it was. (Sorry, I missed this when I wrote about the white spherical artifact. I added it later. Anyway, I got it from there. Please forgive my negligence.)

According to the time when the skeleton monk died, this spirit beast egg has been in the spherical artifact for at least a thousand years.

It stands to reason that after such a long time, the spirit beast eggs that have not yet hatched should have lost their spirit and turned into ashes.

However, what surprised Song Qingming was that when he took out this spirit beast egg, although the spiritual energy on it was very thin, it had not completely lost its spirit, and it was obvious that the thing inside was still alive.

In the past few months, Song Qingming also showed this spirit beast egg to many people.

As a result, whether it was several beast tamers in the family or those Tuoyun Mountain casual cultivators who knew more about spirit beasts, after seeing this spirit beast egg, apart from knowing that the item was of high rank, they could not see the exact origin, let alone how to hatch it.

Song Qingming originally wanted to wait until he had time to go to Guyang Mountain in the future, and then go to the sect to find a high-level beastmaster.

Today, he happened to see that there were many high-level cultivators here, and thought that someone might know, so Song Qingming took out the spirit beast egg directly.

Seeing the yellow spirit beast egg in Song Qingming's hand, Chu Fengping and other Jindan cultivators took a look and shook their heads.

Finally, it was a green-shirted woman standing behind Zhao Fenglian who stepped forward and took a closer look. She seemed to have seen some clues, and bowed to Song Qingming and said:

"Uncle Song, this spirit beast egg looks like it should be a long time old. This kind of spirit beast egg that can survive for a long time, if I am not mistaken, should be a snake spirit beast, and it looks like the grade is not too low, at least it can be cultivated to the Jindan stage.

However, I am not well-versed in it, and I still cannot determine its specific species, and I am not too sure that I can hatch it. Why don't I give it to Uncle Song has written a method. You can try it first. Maybe you can find a way to hatch it. "

Just as the green-shirted woman finished speaking, Zhao Fenglian nodded and said, "Nishan's beast taming skills have reached the second-level upper grade. She is already the best beast tamer in the sect. If even she is not sure, this matter is indeed a bit difficult.

Junior Brother Song might as well try Nishan's method first. If it doesn't work, you can go to Wu Kingdom to try your luck in the future. There are two third-level beast tamers in Xingchen Sect. Maybe they can help you. "

"Sister Zhao is right. It's just a rare thing. There's no need to be so anxious. Let's wait for the right time in the future!" Seeing this, Song Qingming smiled and put away the spirit beast egg in his hand.

At first, Song Qingming just wanted to take it out for everyone to try. He didn't have too high expectations, so he didn't show too much disappointment when he didn't get an answer.

This spirit beast egg was originally obtained by accident. It would be best if there was a way to hatch it. If a spirit beast egg can be cultivated to the Jindan realm, it can definitely be exchanged for some spirit stones in the market or auction.

The several Jindan cultivators present only took a quick look at the spirit beast egg that Song Qingming took out and turned their eyes away.

There is no large sect that focuses on the art of taming beasts in the world of cultivating immortals in the Floating Cloud Mountains. Even in the Yuanying sect like Xiaoyao Sect, the highest level of beast tamers is only the second-level upper grade. These Jindan cultivators basically have no interest in cultivating spirit beasts.

After the green-shirted woman left Song Qingming a method to hatch spirit beasts, seeing that time was almost up, Zhao Menglian and the other two also stood up to bid farewell to Song Qingming and prepared to return to Guyang Mountain together.

"Junior Brother Song, it's getting late. We have to rush back to the sect. We won't bother you here too much. Come visit us another day when we have time."

Seeing this, Song Qingming quickly winked at Song Qingyu beside him and asked her to ask someone to bring a few jars of spirit wine.

"Senior brothers and sisters, you have come from afar to show your support for our Song family. These jars of spirit wine are all brewed by me. Please take them back and try them."

"Oh! Just now at the banquet, I felt that the taste of this spirit wine was a bit unique. I didn't expect that it was brewed by Junior Brother Song. We will have more good food in the future.

It's a pity that Junior Brother Chen was in a hurry to retreat and couldn't come, otherwise he, a wine lover, would not miss such a good wine."

Seeing this, Chu Fengping and the other two did not get along with Song Qingming. Each of them accepted a jar of spirit wine, and also brought a jar to Jin Ziyuan who didn't come.

Not long after Song Qingming personally sent them out of the meeting room, Chu Fengping on the side suddenly heard a voice in his ear and called him aside alone.

In Song Qingming's somewhat puzzled eyes, Chu Fengping placed a soundproof shield beside the two of them, and then asked Song Qingming with some expectation:

"Junior Brother Song, I am really a little ashamed. I came here for a small matter this time, and I want to ask you by the way. I hope Junior Brother will not dislike my abruptness."

Seeing Chu Fengping suddenly so polite, Song Qingming said calmly: "You and I have known each other for many years, there is no need to be so polite. Senior Brother Chu, if you need any help, please speak frankly!"

Originally, Jindan cultivators like Chu Fengping and others, although invited by Song Qingming, did not care whether they came to personally participate in the foundation-building celebration held by the Song family. Like Jin Ziyuan, it is also possible to send a disciple to deliver a gift.

Of the three Jindan cultivators from Xiaoyao Sect who came to attend the celebration, Zhao Menglian was entrusted by Yao Qianshu to represent the sect, while Xu Ziyan gave the Song family such a big face because she had a good relationship with Song Qingming and had received some favors from him.

Chu Fengping's appearance was indeed somewhat unexpected by Song Qingming and the Song family.

At first, Song Qingming thought that Chu Fengping happened to be relatively free recently, so he brought his Taoist partner to Funiushan to sit together. Unexpectedly, he came for some purpose.

"Since Junior Brother Song said so, I won't be polite with you!"

Chu Fengping smiled and bowed his hands after hearing this, and then slowly spoke out another purpose of coming to Funiushan to find Song Qingming this time.

Since the Xiaoyao Sect returned to the sect with many spiritual objects from the "Babel Tower" a year ago, Chu Fengping immediately went to each door to inquire about it.

As a third-level middle-grade alchemist, Chu Fengping naturally wanted to see if anyone who went to the "Babel Tower" could bring out a third-level or higher spiritual medicine that could be used to make pills for him.

Although Zhao Menglian, Chen Xuanxin and others also brought out several third-level spiritual medicines from the "Babel Tower", it was a pity that only one of them could be used by Chu Fengping.

The rest either had no recipe or were of too good quality, so it was too risky and not cost-effective to use them for alchemy.

After some inquiries, Chu Fengping unexpectedly heard a piece of news that Song Qingming might have a third-level spiritual object in his hand, which should be useful to him, so he followed Zhao Menglian and others to participate in the Song family's foundation-building celebration.

"Junior Brother Song, I just happen to have a recipe for the Blood Dragon Pill. If you really have a Blood Dragon Fruit above level three, you might as well consider cooperating with me to refine another batch of pills. This way, you can maximize the benefits of this spiritual object. Don't worry, just like last time, I will provide the rest of the auxiliary spiritual medicines. No matter how many pills are made, I will only take one as the cost of refining the pills. I will never take advantage of you." Seeing Chu Fengping's confident words, it was obvious that he had already set his sights on the level three "Blood Dragon Fruit" on him. Song Qingming's face also showed a hint of helplessness.

On that day in the "Babel Tower", when Song Qingming walked out from the depths of the cloud and thunder formation, although he did not say in person that he had obtained a "blood dragon fruit" above level three from it, Zhao Menglian and others must have had some guesses about this.

After all, that level was so difficult to pass that ordinary Jindan cultivators could not enter at all. Even if Song Qingming, who had passed through the cloud and thunder formation, insisted that he did not get a single level three "blood dragon fruit", others would not believe it so easily.

After all, everyone is a Jindan cultivator who has practiced for many years, so how could they believe your words so easily? It was just that everyone was embarrassed to ask Song Qingming how many fruits he had obtained.

Although a level three "blood dragon fruit" is not cheap, it is only worth more than 10,000 spirit stones. They did not need to go to the "Babel Tower" for this and cause Song Qingming's disgust.

Seeing that Chu Fengping was obviously targeting him this time, Song Qingming hesitated for a moment and then directly admitted the matter.

"Brother Chu, I just took this third-level spiritual fruit out. I originally wanted to wait until I break through my cultivation level in the future and then refine it directly. You are making it difficult for me." Song Qingming sighed with a look of embarrassment on his face.

Seeing this, Chu Fengping immediately spoke again:

"Although the effect of this blood dragon pill in improving mana is not as good as that of you directly refining blood dragon fruit, as long as you can refine one more, you can use this elixir to exchange for other spiritual objects, which will definitely help you more.

Don't worry, Song, I am now a third-level middle-grade alchemist. I can refine a furnace of third-level low-grade elixir. I am not absolutely sure, but I have 60% to 70% confidence. I will definitely not let you down.

If I am lucky enough to refine one or two, hehe! Maybe you will thank me then."

"Since Senior Brother Chu is also thinking about me, let's cooperate again this time. I will give this thing to you first."

After Song Qingming finished speaking, he took out a third-level "blood dragon fruit" with a reluctant look on his face and handed it to Chu Fengping carefully.

Looking at the jade box in Song Qingming's hand, Chu Fengping's face suddenly became a little excited, and he took it with a happy face.

Like most high-level alchemists, Chu Fengping is also obsessed with alchemy skills. Anyone in the sect who has a high-level spiritual object that can help him improve his alchemy skills, as long as he knows it, will eventually find it difficult to escape his "calculation".

"Junior Brother Song, you just wait at home with peace of mind. In two or three months at most, I will be able to gather the auxiliary spiritual medicines and start refining the pills. After the pills are refined, I will definitely send a letter to notify you to collect the spiritual pills."

After getting this spiritual object, Chu Fengping was finally satisfied. He did not entangle Song Qingming, who looked helpless, and after bowing and saying goodbye to him, he happily jumped onto the flying boat in the air and left Funiu Mountain with Zhao Menglian and others.

After bidding farewell to everyone from Xiaoyao Sect, Song Qingming had just returned to the reception room when the last remaining Jindan guest, Zhang Tieyang, immediately approached him.

Feeling that the other party seemed to have something to talk to him alone, Song Qingming immediately greeted Song Qingyu and Huang Siyuan who were sitting in the living room and asked them to leave first.

"Fellow Daoist Zhang, you must have something else to do in Funiushan this time! If you trust me, you can just speak frankly."

Hearing Song Qingming's straightforward words, Zhang Tieyang showed a slight embarrassment on his face, slowly put away the smile on his face, and said calmly:

"To be honest, Fellow Daoist Song, I do have something to ask you about this trip."

"I heard that Fellow Daoist Song has been practicing in Tuoyun Mountain for many years. I wonder what the relationship between Fellow Daoist Song and them is. Has the spiritual vein in Tuoyun Mountain belonged to your Song family?"

Seeing that the other party mentioned Tuoyun Mountain, Song Qingming immediately guessed about 70% of the main purpose of Zhang Tieyang's visit this time, and his face showed a bit of understanding.

For a Jindan cultivator like Zhang Tieyang who came from a casual cultivation background, not having a fixed spiritual vein to practice is also a headache for them.

Zhang Tieyang should have formed his elixir at about the same time as Song Qingming, which is about 30 to 40 years. He should have accumulated some wealth.

He came to Weiguo at this time to inquire about the spiritual vein of Tuoyun Mountain. He must have intended to take over, so he came to the Song family of Funiushan Mountain to test Song Qingming's attitude.

After all, Song Qingming has been sitting on Tuoyun Mountain for these years because of the agreement with Lin Yutang and others.

As an outsider cultivator, Zhang Tieyang must not be able to find out too many secret things at once, so he naturally cannot determine the current relationship between Tuoyun Mountain and the Song family.

After knowing the other party's intention, Song Qingming thought for a moment and then directly replied to him:

"Fellow Daoist Zhang misunderstood. The spiritual vein of Tuoyun Mountain was passed down by Chen Jinliang in the past. Now it has been managed by several of his disciples in Jinyun Pavilion. It has little to do with my Song family.

The reason why I have been sitting on Tuoyun Mountain for these years is because I have an agreement with them. I just protected them. We are just in a cooperative relationship.

Daoist friend, you came here today to ask this question. Could it be that you are interested in the spiritual vein of Tuoyun Mountain? "

Zhang Tieyang's face lit up when he heard this, and he nodded directly and said, "Yes, I was born as a casual cultivator, and I have been wandering for many years. After I formed the elixir, I have not been able to find a suitable spiritual vein to practice.

I have always heard that there is a third-level spiritual vein in Weiguo, and it seems that it is looking for someone to take over. I happened to have time recently, so I came to see it myself. "

Seeing that Zhang Tieyang generously admitted this, Song Qingming smiled and continued:

"Although Patriarch Chen is no longer here, the spiritual vein of Tuoyun Mountain still has an owner. If Daoist friend is interested, you can go directly to Jinyun Pavilion to talk to them. As long as you two sides have reached an agreement, I naturally have no objection.

However, Daoist friend has just come to Weiguo, and there may be some things that you are not very clear about. I will remind Daoist friend first.

The market on Tuoyun Mountain was jointly established by Xiaoyao Sect and them, and the majority of the shares are still held by the sect. If Fellow Daoist Zhang is planning to acquire the spiritual vein of Tuoyun Mountain, it may not be appropriate for Jinyun Pavilion to agree alone.

It is better to ask Xiaoyao Sect about their opinions first, so as to avoid that when you have negotiated with Jinyun Pavilion, something unexpected happens in the sect, and Daoist Zhang will be happy for nothing. "

After hearing Song Qingming's kind reminder, Zhang Tieyang smiled and bowed slightly to him and said, "Oh! So that's the case. I didn't find out about this. It was indeed a bit inconsiderate. Thank you for reminding me, Fellow Daoist Song.

Then I won't go to Tuoyun Mountain for now. I will go to Xiaoyao Sect to pay homage in two days and see the situation. Since this matter is somewhat related to Xiaoyao Sect, it may not be so easy. "

"Since Daoist Zhang is willing to come for Tuoyun Mountain, he should not be too discouraged. For those of us who seek the Tao, if our hearts are sincere, everything will be easy. "

"Haha! Fellow Daoist Song is right. I'll take advantage of your good words."

After getting the information he wanted from Song Qingming, Zhang Tieyang didn't stay for long. He quickly said goodbye to Song Qingming and headed towards Guyang Mountain.

Although the Song family still had some shares in Tuoyun Mountain Market, Song Qingming had no objection to Zhang Tieyang's desire to take over Tuoyun Mountain.

Although Tuoyun Mountain is a good third-level spiritual vein, it is still a little too far from Qinghe County. Song Qingming has never been very interested in this spiritual vein.

When he agreed to go to Tuoyun Mountain to protect Lin Yutang, it was more for Chen Jinliang's skills. , and the alchemy inheritance he left behind.

Moreover, Song Qingming could see something from dealing with Zhang Tieyang. Although this person was a little too smooth and valued immediate interests, there was no big problem with his personal conduct.

As long as Lin Yutang and the others could talk to Zhang Tieyang in advance, they would not have to worry too much about the other party doing something like crossing the river and destroying the bridge in the future.

No matter what the final result of their discussion would be, as long as it did not affect their own reputation, Song Qingming would not have too many ideas to intervene in this matter.

After Zhang Tieyang left Funiu Mountain, he soon came with sincerity. He went up Guyang Mountain and found Xiaoyao Sect's head Yao Qianshu, and explained to him his idea of ​​taking over Tuoyun Mountain's spiritual vein.

What Zhang Tieyang and Song Qingming didn't expect was that Yao Qianshu didn't agree with his attitude of taking over Tuoyun Mountain.

Although he didn't point it out on the spot, it also made clear the sect's attitude. If Zhang Tieyang dared to take it by force, Xiaoyao Sect would definitely intervene in the matter.

Zhang Tieyang, who was still unwilling to give up, went to Tuoyun Mountain again and discussed it with Lin Yutang and his fellow disciples. I don't know if it was because he knew that Xiaoyao Sect would support them. system.

Faced with a Jindan cultivator like Zhang Tieyang, who dropped his status and came to discuss the matter in person, Lin Yutang's attitude was still very firm.

Even though Zhang Tieyang was willing to pay a certain price and promised to give Jinyun Pavilion many privileges to stay on the mountain, Lin Yutang and his fellow disciples directly rejected the other party's idea of ​​taking over Tuoyun Mountain.

Zhang Tieyang, who was frustrated, could only give up in the end and left Weiguo with some regrets.

Thanks to Lyuio and 9836 Daoyou for the reward, and to Daoyou 7785 and everyone for the monthly ticket subscription support.
