Chapter 91 Senior's Cave

After introducing Song Xinhu, the old patriarch did not try to keep Song Qingming.

Two days later, Song Qingming took some spiritual objects from the fourth elder of the Tibetan Gold Pavilion and returned to Qinghefang again.

As soon as he returned to the Song family shop, Song Qingming had not had time to hand over the things he brought from Funiu Mountain. His fourth uncle Song Changqiu pulled him aside and said to him mysteriously:

"Qingming, you are finally back. An old Taoist priest has been looking for you for a few days. I heard from Wang Cheng that he has some friendship with you. This guy has been asking you when you will come back every day these days. I guess he has something to worry about. I asked him but he refused to tell me. He only left me an address and asked you to go find him when you come back."

After that, the fourth uncle took out a white cloth from the drawer behind the counter and handed it to Song Qingming.

"Old Taoist priest, I have some friendship with him."

Song Qingming took the cloth and opened it. As expected, it was Chen Laodao, a shrewd old man, who was looking for him.

What urgent matter could this old man have for him? Could it be that his fourth uncle could cheat him in buying and selling things? Song Qingming shook his head with a puzzled look on his face.

After putting the things he brought with him into the store, Song Qingming went out again and came to an inn at the other end of Qinghefang.

Qinghefang is not like Guiyunfang, which is backed by the third-level spiritual vein of Guiyuan Mountain. There is no place in the market to open caves and rent to the various cultivators who come here.

Only a few large inns in the market can provide rental for cultivators who do not live in the market. Chen Laodao has basically lived here in Qinghefang in recent years.

The spiritual vein of Qinghefang is only the second-level middle grade. There are two foundation-building cultivators and hundreds of Qi-refining cultivators stationed in the market all year round. In addition, the number of casual cultivators from outside has gradually increased in recent years. The spiritual veins in the market have gradually become overwhelmed.

A cultivator in the late Qi-refining stage like Song Qingming occasionally has to refine some spirit stones to avoid delaying his own cultivation progress.

Almost four years have passed since Song Qingming broke through the seventh level of Qi Refining in Guiyunfang. Although Song Qingming's cultivation has improved, he is still some distance away from breaking through the eighth level of Qi Refining.

After reaching the late stage of Qi Refining, Song Qingming suddenly felt that his progress in cultivation had slowed down a lot. The progress of cultivation for a cultivator in the late stage of Qi Refining is at least twice as difficult as that in the middle stage of Qi Refining.

Under normal circumstances, it would take at least ten years for a cultivator with four spiritual roots like Song Qingming to break through one level of cultivation in the late stage of Qi Refining. Even if he has no shortage of elixirs, spiritual stones, and special high-level spiritual objects, it would take at least one or two years for him to break through to the eighth level of Qi Refining.

It is precisely because of the slow progress of cultivation that he has more time to complete the practice of Fengyuan Soul Forging Technique in his hand in the past few years.

After asking the shop assistant, Song Qingming quickly found the residence of Chen Laodao.

Seeing Song Qingming coming to visit, Chen Laodao excitedly invited him into his room.

"Friend Song, you are finally here. I have come to find you several times. Unfortunately, I heard that you left Qinghefang some time ago. I can only leave a message and wait for you here."

Song Qingming smiled and answered, "I happened to go back for something at home. I don't know why Senior Chen is so anxious to find me this time."

After carefully placing a soundproof barrier beside the two of them, Taoist Chen said with a serious face, "It's like this, Friend Song, I accidentally found a senior cave a while ago. I didn't expect that there were many restrictions in the cave. I have tried for many years and have never been able to enter it. This time I invited you to come together and I want to use your ability as a formation master. I hope that Friend Song can help."

"Senior cave! I wonder where this cave is and how far it is from us?" Hearing what Taoist Chen said, Song Qingming was a little surprised.

I thought that Taoist Chen wanted to talk to me about some business, but I didn't expect that this old guy wanted to pull me in to explore the cave of the senior cultivator.

In the history of more than 100,000 years in the world of immortal cultivation, many senior cultivators with profound cultivation would build a hidden cave for themselves in some remote places. Finding such a cave in the wild depends entirely on the cultivator's own chance.

The owner of the cave in such a place would set up a powerful protective ban for the cave. Exploring the cave of such a senior cultivator full of dangers may have unexpected gains, but it may also be a place of burial from which there is no return.

"This cave is not too far from Qinghefang. It is in the Yunwu Mountain in the east. It takes at most one month to go back and forth. I have been there several times. There are no powerful monsters nearby.

Don't worry, my friend. This time I have invited another Taoist friend in the late stage of Qi Refining to go with me. As long as you can help break the restrictions there, no matter what appears after entering the cave, we will give you a share." Seeing Song Qingming's hesitation, Taoist Chen said with a happy look on his face.

"Senior, do you have other reasons for finding me for this matter?"

Hearing this, Taoist Chen paused and then said, "Song, my friend, you also know that I am not a local cultivator. There are not many people I can trust here. I have known you for a few years, and I still trust your character.

In addition, I have seen that your formation skills are indeed impressive. With your magical powers, there is a great hope of breaking the restrictions of the cave, so I went directly to you. "

"Senior Chen, I am really sorry, I have no interest in the cave you left behind. There are still many formation masters in the market. You may as well look for someone else. Please rest assured that I am not a talkative person and I will keep this matter to myself. "

After thinking for a while, Song Qingming still didn't want to explore the senior's cave with Chen Laodao. Now he had no shortage of spirit stones, so there was really no need to take the risk. He bowed to Chen Laodao and turned to leave the inn.

Song Qingming's sudden refusal caught Chen Laodao off guard and he was stunned on the spot.

Seeing that Song Qingming was about to leave, Chen Laodao hesitated for a while and said to Song Qingming: "Didn't you ask me some time ago if there was any follow-up to the technique I sold you? If you are willing to go with me this time, it is estimated that there is a great chance that you will get the follow-up technique you want."

Hearing Chen Laodao mention the follow-up technique of Fengyuan Soul Forging Technique that he had been thinking about for some time, Song Qingming stopped involuntarily and turned to ask:

"Could it be that the technique that Senior Chen got was from the cave of this senior cultivator? "

Seeing that Song Qingming was persuaded by him, Taoist Chen continued with excitement: "Song Xiaoyou guessed right. This technique was found by me in this cave. However, I only entered the outer part of the cave at that time and only got some classics and techniques, including this technique in Song Xiaoyou's hand. If the restrictions in the cave can be successfully opened, it is indeed possible for you to get what you want. I can make the decision to promise you that as long as we find the subsequent techniques of Fengyuan Soul Forging Jue, we can give it to you first. As for other treasures in the cave, I can also give you a share as I said before. "

After hearing what the other party said, Song Qingming still did not agree immediately, but thought about it before saying: "Senior Chen, how about letting me think about this matter? Senior, wait for me here for a day, and I will definitely give you a reply tomorrow. "

"Okay! I will wait for you here for a day. If you really don't want to go, I will try to find other people to see if there are any suitable candidates who understand the formation. "Chen Laodao said with a very considerate smile.
