Chapter 825: Reunion at the Old Place, Mysterious Rune
After Song Yuanfang left, Song Qingyu slowly turned around and came to a small room next to him where various books were placed.
The bamboo slips in the books recorded anecdotes from all over the world of immortal cultivation, as well as illustrations of spiritual objects, which were basically brought back by Song Qingming when he traveled outside.
These things, which were not very noticeable to high-level cultivators outside, were the favorites of Song Qingming, the head of the Song family. When he sat in the "Meeting Immortal Pavilion" with Song Qingyu and others to drink tea, he would often hold them in his hands.
At this moment, when he came to the bookshelf, Song Qingyu thought of Song Qingming who had been away from home for more than a year, and couldn't help but sigh slightly.
"Seventh brother! I really hope you can come back soon."
After whispering, Song Qingyu's hand moved with a flash of light and two new bamboo slips appeared, which he placed directly among the many books in front of him.
Then Song Qingyu set up a ban next to the two bamboo slips, and then turned around and left the room with confidence.
After nightfall, a figure in green quietly came to the back of "Funiu Mountain".
Taking advantage of the gap when the patrolling tribe members left, the figure in green flashed to the mountain protection formation, and then directly passed through the formation and turned into a black light and disappeared into the night.
Half a month later, next to a high mountain surrounded by clouds and mist in the north of Yue State.
This mountain is called "Huo Ling Mountain". There is also a low-grade second-level upper-grade spiritual vein on the mountain, which was originally located in the territory of the monster clan.
Decades ago, after the human cultivators of the Fuyun Mountain Range joined forces to march north, this place fell into the hands of the Yue cultivators who occupied it, and a "mountain protection formation" was set up on the mountain to defend this place.
This day, when several Qi Refining cultivators were patrolling at the foot of the mountain, they suddenly saw a group of monsters not far away running straight towards the "Huo Ling Mountain". They hurriedly sent a message while quickly withdrawing to the "mountain protection formation".
"There are monsters coming, quickly activate the formation to resist them!"
Because "Fire Spirit Mountain" is located at the border with the monsters, it has been frequently harassed by monsters in recent years. The human cultivators stationed here reacted very quickly when they heard the monsters coming.
Before the monsters from afar arrived, a ray of light lit up from the "mountain protection formation" on the mountain, and then more than a dozen black balls half a foot in size rolled down from the mountain.
As soon as these black balls fell into the monster group, they immediately exploded with a "bang", blowing away several low-level monsters nearby and causing chaos for other monsters nearby.
The black balls thrown out from the formation are a one-time magic weapon "Black Flame" unique to the Yue Kingdom.
This thing can be thrown out at a long distance like a talisman. Although its power is not as good as a talisman of the same level, its attack distance is farther than a talisman, and it is very effective against groups of monsters.
As more than a dozen powerful explosions sounded in succession, the monsters that attacked from afar also became chaotic, and some dared not move forward.
After a while, they slowly gathered together under the intimidation of several leading second-level monsters, and rushed to the "Mountain Protection Formation" in front again, without the previous strong momentum.
The monsters here just rushed to the front of the "Mountain Protection Formation", and several sword lights flew out of the formation immediately, killing the leading monsters on the spot.
"Quick, kill the enemy!"
After a shout, dozens of cultivators rushed out of the "Mountain Protection Formation" and fought with those monsters.
Although there were hundreds of monsters coming to attack "Fire Spirit Mountain", there were also many human cultivators guarding this place, including three foundation-building cultivators and more than 200 Qi-refining cultivators.
Although the two sides were not much different in strength, the human cultivators had the "Mountain Protection Formation" behind them and several weapons specially designed for defending the city, which obviously had a greater advantage.
After a short fight, the leading Level 2 monster was beheaded by a late Foundation Establishment cultivator among the human cultivators. The monsters were quickly frightened and slowly retreated.
"Haha! The monsters are retreating. Let's chase them."
Seeing that the invading monsters had lost their fighting spirit and began to flee in all directions, many human cultivators suddenly showed some joy on their faces and began to chase them.
The several Foundation Establishment cultivators in the air did not leave the battlefield to chase the fleeing monsters. They began to command the remaining cultivators to deal with the cultivators who died in the battle and the corpses of many monsters.
One of them bowed to the late foundation building cultivator who had just displayed his divine power and said:
"We were able to win so quickly this time, all thanks to Brother Liu's divine power, otherwise it would not be so easy for us to repel the monster!"
"Haha! Daoist Yu, you are too polite. We were able to defend Lingshan in this battle, and everyone has contributed. After counting the casualties, I will report your contributions to the sect.
Now the sect is short of manpower and needs your help. I hope you can help me defend this place. Sect The sect will not treat you badly in the future."
"Thank you, Brother Liu. Don't worry, we are here to guard and we have the second-grade "mountain protection formation", so it will be safe.
Even if the demon king comes, we can resist with the formation behind us."
"Boom! ..."
Just when the three foundation-building cultivators were still chatting outside the formation, they heard a shocking loud noise behind them, and then the second-grade "body protection formation" behind them shattered with a roar.
A dozen Qi-refining cultivators who were close to them were soon swallowed up by a white light, and the whole person disappeared in an instant.
Before anyone could react to what had happened, a purple-clothed figure fell from the sky and stood on the ground on top of a giant sword that was more than ten feet high.
"Senior, please don't misunderstand me. I am a disciple of the Jiuyuan Sect. I have been ordered to station here for the sect. I don't know what important matters your senior has here, but I hope you can tell me. We will not dare to neglect your senior."
Seeing the purple-clothed woman with a huge sword in front of him, the monk named Liu was shocked, and he quickly took the lead and bowed his hands to the other party with a respectful look, indicating his identity as a disciple of the "Nine Yuan Sect".
The purple-clothed woman in front of them was not a good person, and her face was very strange. She was not someone they knew.
But the powerful aura emanating from the other party destroyed the "Mountain Protecting Formation" behind them with just one sword strike. It didn't take much thinking to figure out that he must be a high-level monk above the Golden Core.
Facing a high-level monk of this level, even if everyone in front of them unites together, there is no way they can be the opponent of the woman in purple.
If they want to survive, they can only try to use the name "Nine Yuan Sect" to see if the other party will be afraid after knowing it.
Hearing the leader, the foundation-building monk surnamed Liu, introduce himself, the woman in purple just smiled softly and did not answer the other party's question.
Then she raised her hand and waved, and instantly released a sword light, flying quickly towards the foundation-building monk named Liu, with an extremely fierce momentum.
Seeing this, the Jiu Yuan Sect's Jiu Jiu monk named Liu, who had been well prepared, hurriedly moved to the side and retreated, and cast a spell to release a shield in front of him.
Seeing that he had dodged her attack, the woman in purple moved her hand lightly again. After the sword light passed by the opponent, it suddenly changed its direction and flew towards the foundation-building monk surnamed Liu again, and was in front of him in an instant.
"ah!.."
Although he was on guard, the gap between the cultivation strength of the Jiuyuan Sect's foundation-building monk named Liu and his opponent was too big.
Everyone around heard a scream, and the sword light controlled by the purple-clothed woman easily passed through the shield weapon on the chest of the monk named Liu and flew out from behind him.
After just a face-to-face encounter with the opponent, the foundation-building monk surnamed Liu, who had just displayed his power in front of the monster, fell down and became a cold corpse.
Seeing that the woman in purple started killing people without saying a word, she didn't even care about the man named Liu who mentioned the name "Jiu Yuan Sect". The other two Foundation Establishment monks nearby were also startled and hurriedly separated to the two sides. Run quickly.
"Everyone, run!"
Seeing that the three leading foundation-building monks were dying and running away, the surrounding monks who were only in the Qi Refining stage also dispersed and scrambled to escape out of the mountain!
Facing this scene, the woman in purple also looked at everyone with contempt, and then quickly cast spells with both hands.
The giant sword under his feet suddenly flew into the air, and then turned into hundreds of sword lights, flying directly towards the fleeing people!
Not long after, after the purple-clothed woman landed from high altitude, there was no movement on the "Fire Spirit Mountain". Only the corpses of the monks were left on the ground, as well as the monster materials that they had not yet had time to deal with.
After killing all the surrounding monks, the woman in purple did not take a look at the monster materials on the ground, but directly took out a spiritual talisman and cast it out.
A moment later, three more spiritual lights flew from a distance and landed next to the woman in purple.
Seeing the visitor, the woman in purple hurriedly bowed to the leading woman in white.
"Master! Everything around here has been cleaned up."
The woman in white nodded slightly when she heard the words, and then said to her: "Zi Xin, please stay outside first and don't let anyone get close to here.
If you encounter anything difficult to deal with, just send me a message directly! "
"Disciple accepts the order!"
After giving instructions to the woman in purple clothes next to her, the woman in white clothes turned around and looked behind her.
"Since you've been here before, you should lead the way! Don't worry, I won't put you in any danger."
"Senior, please follow me!"
After hearing the instructions from the woman in white in front of him, Song Qingyu, who was dressed in green, nodded slightly and responded, then flew to the back of "Huoling Mountain" with the two people behind him.
Not long after, the three of them came to a cliff.
After arriving here, Song Qingyu relied on the memory in his mind to quickly find a place covered by clouds and fog.
Just when she was about to try to enter it, several sword lights suddenly flew out of the clouds and went straight to where Song Qingyu and the others were.
When Song Qingyu was about to take action, another girl in white beside her threw out a golden bracelet magic weapon before her and blocked it in front of the three of them.
After blocking all the sword lights in front of him, the golden bracelet, under the control of the girl in white, suddenly grew dozens of times in size and hit the clouds over there.
A loud bang and several screams were heard. After the clouds rolled in front of them, the bodies of the three monks fell from it and fell directly into the valley below the cliff.
"Let's go!"
Hearing the reminder from the girl in white next to him, Song Qingyu nodded quickly, and then led the two of them into the clouds and mist ahead, arriving at a somewhat familiar cave.
This cave is the same cave that Song Qingyu visited with Song Qingming, Xia Mo and He Mengxin.
It was also here that Song Qingyu accidentally obtained the inheritance of sword cultivation, which helped her to successfully form pills and achieve the cultivation level she has today.
When he came here for the first time, Song Qingyu had not yet formed an elixir and his cultivation level was only nine levels. In the blink of an eye, a hundred years had passed and this cave had undergone earth-shaking changes.
The entrance to the cave, which was originally desolate and full of dust, has not only been cleaned and given a brand new look, but also many oil lamps for lighting have been added, illuminating the originally dark cave very brightly.

On that day, after Song Qingyu and others explored the cave and plundered everything here before leaving, the place quickly attracted other monsters due to the leakage of spiritual energy. After a fight, it was occupied by a peak foundation-building tiger monster.
Later, under the leadership of the "Nine Yuan Sect", the monks of the Yue Kingdom conquered the demon tribe in the north and captured this place. They accidentally discovered a high-level fire vein hidden in the cave, so they renamed the place "Huoling Mountain" and occupied it. .
The previous monks headed by the monk named Liu were the monks sent by the "Nine Yuan Sect" to station here.
It's just that except for the Ji Zhu named Liu and some of the monks in the Qi Refining Stage who are monks in the "Jiu Yuan Sect", the others are casual cultivators recruited from outside by the "Nine Yuan Sect".
They didn't know much about the cave hidden behind the mountain and the high-level fire veins inside. They thought the "Nine Yuan Sect" invited them here just to fight against the monsters and protect the spiritual veins on the mountain.
The three women in white who came with Song Qingyu were the swordsman master and her two disciples that she met in "Yunwu Mountain" that day.
On this trip across the country, it was the leading woman in white who insisted on bringing Song Qingyu with her.
After not seeing each other for a year, the injuries on the woman in white's body after the battle have healed a lot, and most of the pale color on her face has disappeared, but her voice is still a little hoarse when she speaks.
Although he still couldn't guess what the other party's purpose was in bringing him here, Song Qingyu's cultivation level was really too low compared to the three people around him, and he didn't have much qualifications to bargain with the other party.
Not to mention the unfathomable woman in white in front of him, even the woman in purple who was the peak golden elixir disciple she brought, Song Qingyu had no confidence that he could beat her.
The remaining young disciple in white who had just taken action had also reached the sixth level of the Golden Core, not much worse than Song Qingyu.
After the three of them entered the cave, under the leadership of Song Qingyu, they quickly entered the upper cave they had visited back then.
After arriving here, Song Qingyu quickly cupped his hands to the woman in white behind him and said:
"Senior! This is the senior cave I found back then."
The woman in white nodded slightly when she heard the words, and after glancing around, she said softly: "There is something wrong with the aura here. It should be a different cave!"
After hearing what the woman in white said, Song Qingyu nodded quickly and said:
"Senior is right. This cave has two floors, upper and lower. It is on the lower floor that I found the place where the skills are inherited."
After Song Qingyu finished speaking, he pushed open a stone table in the middle of the cave, directly exposing the cave entrance below.
"Yeah! Take me down."
After the three of them passed through the somewhat dark tunnel, they soon arrived at the cave below.
After this cave was occupied by the "Nine Yuan Sect", the refining furnace that Song Qingming and others had dismantled was replaced by a new one. There were also many more refining furnaces on the surrounding empty stone shelves. device material.
"Senior, this is it. Originally this place was empty. These things should have been put in by later generations."
After bringing the woman in white here, Song Qingyu briefly introduced her, then stood aside obediently without saying anything else.
The woman in white glanced around, then walked slowly around the entire cave, and finally stopped in front of a stone shelf.
With just a slight wave of his hand, the stone frame weighing several thousand kilograms was pushed aside, revealing a somewhat bumpy stone wall.
In the corner of the stone wall, there is a very inconspicuous small hole, which directly attracts the attention of the woman in white.
"Did you find that sword here?"
Hearing the question from the woman in white, Song Qingyu nodded quickly and said, "Senior is right. This is where I accidentally discovered it."
"Take out the sword!"
The flying sword that Song Qingyu got from the stone wall back then was very ordinary in appearance and had not yet been sharpened. Apart from getting the hidden sword inheritance from it, Song Qingyu didn't know its specific function.
It wasn't until later that she successfully formed the pill that Song Qingyu knew its true purpose and trained it into her own flying sword, which is the "Xuanming Golden Light Sword" that has been hidden in her body.
After hearing what the woman in white said, Song Qingyu instantly understood what she meant, and quickly cast a spell to summon the "Xuanming Golden Light Sword" from his body.
Seeing the "Xuanming Golden Light Sword" in front of Song Qingyu, the woman in white showed a slight smile on her face, and then cast a spell and threw a red rope, which was directly wrapped around Song Qingyu's natal flying sword.
Then Song Qingyu felt that the "Xuanming Golden Light Sword" was pulled by a strong force, inserted directly back into the stone wall, and fell into the small hole where she had originally pulled it out.
After completing this step, the woman in white waved one hand, and a white flying sword appeared beside her.
After the white flying sword reached the mid-air, it suddenly had a flash of light, and then its momentum instantly increased to a level that made Song Qingyu feel uneasy, and it slashed towards the stone wall with one sword.
Seeing this, Song Qingyu and the girl in white next to them quickly stepped back!
Only a harsh sound was heard. The scene of flying rocks that Song Qingyu and the two originally thought did not appear. The stone wall was still intact, but a white light appeared out of thin air.
This white light seems to be attached to the stone wall and imprinted on it, which makes people feel a little strange.
Before Song Qingyu could figure out what was going on, the flying sword in the hand of the woman in white fell again, leaving a bright light on the stone wall.
As the woman in white cast dozens of sword lights one after another, the position of the stone wall was also scratched by the sword light in her hand, revealing a somewhat special sword-shaped rune.
Seeing this talisman, the woman in white suddenly showed a hint of joy on her face.
"Senior brother! We haven't seen each other for many years. Now that I have the chance to find this place today, let me take a look at the inheritance you left behind. What does it look like?"
After the woman in white whispered something to herself, she quickly fired a spell from her hand and landed directly on the "Xuanming Golden Light Sword" on the stone wall.
As the mana fell into the hands of the woman in white, the runes on the stone wall suddenly lit up with a dazzling white light and slowly flew into the air.
Seeing this, the woman in white quickly controlled the white flying sword on the side, shooting a sword energy into the runes in mid-air, and her eyes became very solemn.
Seeing what happened in front of him, Song Qingyu, who was standing behind, was constantly shocked.
Although she had already made some assumptions in her mind before coming here, she still didn't expect that there was still something in the cave that had been looted by them that could make a Nascent Soul cultivator like the woman in white excited.
Before Song Qingyu could clearly see the situation before him, the rune in the air suddenly began to stir after being penetrated by the flying sword magic weapon of the woman in white. Then he broke away from the aura released by the white flying sword and began to fly in the air.
Seeing this, the woman in white was slightly startled, and cast a spell again to control the flying sword magic weapon to shoot out several rays of light, turning into a cage to lock the runes in mid-air.
After seeing the runes stabilize again, the woman in white relaxed slightly.
But when she manipulated the sword light to merge into the runes again, she didn't expect that the runes in front of her suddenly lighted up, and she broke the cage again and broke away from the control of the white flying sword.
Before the woman in white could control it again, the rune suddenly bypassed the sword light and fell directly into the "Xuanming Golden Light Sword" inserted on the stone wall, completely disappearing.
"How could this be like this? Did you design it in advance?"
Seeing this unexpected scene, the woman in white suddenly changed her expression and blurted out, and she actually stood there blankly.
At this time, Song Qingyu, who was not far away, suddenly felt that there seemed to be something extra on his natal magic weapon "Xuanming Golden Light Sword".
But because Feijian was too far away from her, she couldn't figure out what had changed for a while.
Seeing the woman in white cast another spell to get the "Xuanming Golden Light Sword" in her hand, and looked at it carefully with a solemn expression, Song Qingyu hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but asked:
"Senior! Can you return the magic weapon to this junior first?"
After hearing what Song Qingyu said, the woman in white looked up at her, and after a moment of silence, she suddenly smiled and said, "This sword has some use for me, but I'm afraid I can't return it to you now.
In the past few days, you will stay with me. When I use it up, I will naturally return it to you. "
"Senior, if you are unwilling to return the magic weapon of your life to this junior, then even if I destroy it now, I will never leave with you again!"
After Song Qingyu finished speaking, magic power surged out of his hands, and there was a hint of determination in his eyes when he looked at the woman in white.
