Yun Qing, a second-generation disciple, walked to Yue Huaigu's side and whispered a few words, presumably to report the gathering of disciples, Yue Huaigu nodded when he heard this, got up and walked to the round platform, first bowed to the case, and then turned to face hundreds of disciples.

The entire square suddenly became silent, and all the disciples looked up at the helmsman of the Qianyang Sect, their eyes full of awe and longing.

"You must already know that the vision of clouds and smoke has appeared, and that mysterious place is about to open, as the largest sect in this lark mountain system, our Qianyang Sect will naturally not miss such a grand event, but this year's situation is a little different, but we can no longer send foreign disciples to participate. Yue Huaigu said slowly.

Hearing this, the outer disciples all showed disappointment, but they had all received some news before, so there was no too much excitement or riot.

Yue Huaigu nodded in the direction of the outer disciples, and said: "Now there are many sects in the Yunque Mountain lineage, although my Qianyang Sect was established at the earliest, it is difficult to call it a monopoly until now, but some new sects are developing rapidly, aggressive, and quite have the posture of replacing my sect, so this time is also an opportunity for my sect." ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Yun Qing, who hurriedly took a few steps forward and said solemnly: "The disciple must live up to the trust of the sect." ”

"Hmm-" Yue Huaigu nodded lightly, and said with a solemn expression: "You and Yun Feng and Yun Xia represent the disciples who participated in this operation, let's have a stick of incense." ”

"Yes!" Yun Qing walked onto the round platform with his junior brothers and sisters, and after respectfully paying homage to the incense, Yun Qing expressed his attitude as a representative, nothing more than to maintain the reputation of the Qianyang Sect and successfully complete the task Yunyun.

Yue Huaigu encouraged again, explained some precautions, and then disbanded, and the team participating in the operation would set off early the next morning.

Xia Qingyang went to the back mountain with a heavy heart, Gu Huaiyuan saw him coming, but he didn't ask him, just arranged for him to do some things to take care of the garden, and after finishing it, he also tested his alchemy knowledge, and was busy until dark, and then said: "Go back, come over early tomorrow morning." ”

Xia Qingyang relieved his mind at this time, and returned to the outer door to tell Long Hanxiang about it, but he didn't say anything about Ji Zhong, although Long Hanxiang didn't want him to take risks, but he also knew that cultivation should not interfere, so he just told him to be careful.

"What about the Iron Bull?" Xia Qingyang couldn't see the shadow of the Iron Bull left and right.

"I don't know that I haven't seen him since I came back from the square. Long Hanxiang said absentmindedly.

Xia Qingyang nodded thoughtfully, sorted out his belongings again, and after sending Long Hanxiang back to the dormitory, he went back to his room and went to bed early.

Before dawn the next day, Xia Qingyang got up and rushed to the Houshan Garden, but saw that Gu Huaiyuan was already standing outside the door, and when he saw him coming, he smiled and said, "You came early." ”

"Hehe, the early bird has worms. Now that he is familiar with Gu Huaiyuan, Xia Qingyang speaks much more casually, and is no longer as restrained as before.

"Haha, that's true, the old man has a few worms here to feed you. Gu Huaiyuan laughed, took out a few square objects the size of half a palm from his arms, and handed them over.

"Soul talisman!" Xia Qingyang was overjoyed, and took it without being polite, muttering, "This is a good thing." ”

"You've got some knowledge. Gu Huaiyuan smiled slightly, pointed to one of the orange soul runes and said, "It's okay for the others, you should use this soul talisman with caution." ”

Looking at the color of the soul talisman, Xia Qingyang's heart moved, and said, "What's the matter?"

"Huge!"

"How big?"

"Bigger than me!"

Hiss-Xia Qingyang gasped, Gu Huaiyuan was at the peak realm of an elite soul master, and he was only one step away from an excellent soul master, older than him, didn't he say that this soul talisman had the power equivalent to that of an excellent soul master?

"Could it be that Old Ancestor is not only a fourth-grade alchemist, but also a high-level refiner?" Xia Qingyang looked in admiration.

Gu Huaiyuan scolded with a smile: "Nonsense! This is what Ancestor I exchanged for a four-grade spirit pill a few years ago. ”

Xia Qingyang exclaimed: "Ancestor's business is not cost-effective, and he has suffered a big loss." ”

"Alas, what can I do, whoever keeps me from taking that step must have some means of self-defense. "Although he specializes in alchemy, not being promoted to an excellent soul master has always been a heart disease for Gu Huaiyuan.

Hearing this, Xia Qingyang hurriedly returned the soul talisman and said, "How can the disciple accept the ancestor's self-defense, please take it back." ”

Gu Huaiyuan's face was solemn, and he said with a straight face: "I am for you to use for self-defense, not for you, if you don't need to come back, you will return me." ”

"Is that secret realm so dangerous? it actually needs an excellent soul talisman to defend oneself, so what can the others do?" Xia Qingyang frowned.

Gu Huaiyuan sighed: "Although the secret realm is dangerous, if you don't go deep and don't go to those dangerous places, it's generally not a big deal, but in the secret realm, the most dangerous thing is often not the secret realm itself." ”

Gu Huaiyuan didn't finish speaking, but Xia Qingyang already understood the meaning, and he sneered: "Thank you Ancestor for your advice, then I'm welcome." He put away the talisman.

"You're not afraid?" Gu Huaiyuan said in surprise.

"It's useless to be afraid. Xia Qingyang paused and said: "To be honest, after coming out of the Punishment Hall, the disciple was indeed very apprehensive in his heart, and the realm of an excellent soul master made me feel unattainable and irresistible. ”

Gu Huaiyuan groaned: "It's normal for you to have this kind of pressure, I'm curious about how you untied this knot so quickly." ”

Xia Qingyang snickered twice and said: "The disciple can't beat her, the ancestor may not be able to beat her, and besides, there is a sect master above, as long as I act carefully, she shouldn't have a chance to cut me down with a sword." ”

That's right, but it's a bit negative. ”

"That's no way, but I also have my advantages, and when I get to the point of being an excellent soul master or even an elite soul master, I don't have to be afraid of her. Xia Qingyang said confidently.

"Okay, but you don't have to worry too much, although Senior Sister Huairou acted unscrupulously, she didn't dare to do anything about directly killing her disciple without any evidence, it was nothing more than using some means behind her back. However, don't underestimate the outstanding soul master, although I am at the peak of the elite soul master, but this step is a world of difference. ”

Xia Qingyang was puzzled: "Ancestor, I see that you are not much inferior when you fight her today, the elite soul master can already use the soul technique, if you master the powerful soul technique, even if the soul power is weaker, there will be no chance of winning, right?"

Gu Huaiyuan sighed: "You also know that soul refining is divided into four stages: soul condensation, soul separation, soul gathering and soul melting, which also correspond to the four realms, elite soul masters only reach the soul condensing stage, although they can condense their own horcruxes and perform soul skills, they can't leave the body, while the excellent soul master has mastered the art of soul separation, and the soul power and condensed horcruxes can be separated from the body, this is the essential difference." ”

Xia Qingyang's heart moved, and he said, "Regardless of the strength of the soul power, if the elite soul master wants to defeat the outstanding soul master, he must find a way to fight in close combat." ”

"Not bad! but hard. Gu Huaiyuan said and took out a bottle of spirit pill from his arms, handed it over and said: "This is a strong body pill, which can improve the strength of the physical body within a certain period of time, and what you rely on at this stage is mostly martial arts and sword techniques, which should be of some use to you." ”

Xia Qingyang took it, knelt down and kowtowed a few times, and said sincerely: "Thank you for your thoughtfulness." ”

Gu Huaiyuan waved his hand: "Don't thank me, I'm also entrusted by others." "Let's go first.

Xia Qingyang didn't know why, but seeing that he was walking fast, he hurriedly followed.

It is still the Qianyang Sect Square, more than 20 people are ready to go, the three Yunqing brothers and sisters are leading the team, and the rest are all white-clothed disciples, and there is no shortage of familiar faces such as Ji Zhong, Jiang Ting, Liu Jingning, Jingyuan and Guo Ziqiu.

Seeing Xia Qingyang's arrival, everyone was a little surprised, Ji Zhong was anxious but didn't have a chance to speak, Jiang Ting, Liu Jingning and others had strange expressions, and the corners of their mouths sneered.

After waiting for a while, Yue Huaigu and Huairou also arrived, and the two of them didn't talk nonsense, the former nodded to Yun Qing, Yun Qing waved his hand and released a wide giant sword, and all the disciples jumped up, when Xia Qingyang also wanted to go up, Yun Qing said coldly: "This is a horcrux that only inner disciples can ride, but it is inconvenient for Qingyang junior disciples to come up." ”

At this time, Yue Huaigu and Huairou had already sacrificed their own horcruxes and rode away with the wind. Seeing this, Gu Huaiyuan snorted, and didn't bother to bother with these disciples, shook his hand to hit a thing, and when the wind rose, it slowly turned into a small boat in the air.

I don't know what material this small boat is made of, it is antique, beautiful, although the space inside is not large, it is more than enough to take two people, Gu Huaiyuan pulled Xia Qingyang to fly on the boat, and the boat flew up gracefully, not slowly, but parallel to the giant sword.

Gu Huaiyuan took out a plate of fruit and a pot of wine and put them on the ground, and the old and young sat cross-legged, eating fruits, drinking wine, and taking out some elixirs from time to time to show off, which made Yunqing and others both embarrassed and envious.

Xia Qingyang looked funny, and grinned: "Ancestor, you are showing off your wealth naked." ”

Gu Huaiyuan took a sip of wine and said happily: "These rabbit cubs, seeing that I have no authority in the sect, and I haven't shown up much over the years, they slowly stop taking me seriously, and they don't want to think about where the elixirs they use on weekdays come from." ”

Xia Qingyang said with a smile: "It's also that they don't have eyesight, four-grade alchemists, and they don't eat and drink spicy food wherever they go." He touched the boat he was sitting on and said, "What grade of Horcrux is this? I'm afraid it cost the ancestor a lot of elixir, right?"

Gu Huaiyuan said casually: "The excellent horcrux is much better than the Laushzi giant sword, but I don't remember how many elixirs it spent." ”

When Xia Qingyang heard this, he became more and more determined to become an alchemist, this is simply a skill in hand, I have it in the world.

While speaking, Xia Qingyang suddenly heard the voices of people in front of him, and when he looked down, he saw that in a wide and flat place, hundreds of people had already gathered, and not far in front of the crowd, there was a gray barrier, connecting the sky and the earth, hanging upside down, giving people a sense of depression.
