Volume 5: The First Song Three Hundred and Seventy-Three: White Cranes Flying in the Clouds
"I have a question," Qian Chao said, "Since you are in terms of cultivation and means, your predecessors are no longer inferior to your Uncle Qiu, but why...... Well, I talked to Kang Pu's seniors, and he told me some about the current developments, but he didn't say much, and my question is, why are Gu Hou's seniors so jealous of you, Master Qiu? â
Tang Ping sighed when she heard this, and said:
"It's not Uncle Qiu that my master is afraid of, but ...... Alas...... My master, my master's name is Qiu Long, and it is Uncle Qiu's father......"
Qian Chao understood at this point, nodded and said:
"I see, it makes sense."
"Listen to my master, my master is still a very eccentric character, back then my master was also a lot of brothers, but the master always secretly opened a small stove for his son, so among the master's brothers, Uncle Qiu's cultivation and means are the best, he was the first to build the foundation and the first to form a Dan, and now, my master's brothers and sisters have fallen because they can't form a Dan, if my master hadn't gotten Ah Jiu, it is estimated that there would be no Gu won the name of fairy in this cultivation world."
æįŽ says:
"Senior Gu is worried that your master came down from the Jade Pot Mountain and took this Xiaobai for his son, right?"
åč says:
"Yes, this is what my master is most worried about, although she is famous in the cultivation world, if her master says something, it will be difficult for the master to refuse."
Lu Pingchuan snorted after hearing this, and said:
"Hmph, your master, his son Qiu Huaqi, plus Qiu Huaqi's disciple Shangguan Hong, these three generations are really weasels and rats, one litter is not as good as one litter, which makes people look down on it!"
Yan Xuan said with concern next to him:
"So what's next? Qiu Huayu already knows that you have something to do with Xiaobai, will it ......?"
Money tide says:
"Sister Yan, no, there will be news in the next few days, and I will definitely be able to keep Xiaobai."
Tang Ping also said:
"My sixth grandfather also told me before, if there is such a day, he will definitely be able to protect Xiaobai for me, alas, okay, Xiaobai's matter will be here first, and then the second thing I want to say is related to me, which is my biggest secret."
Hearing this, several of her companions fell silent and listened to her continue.
"When I was in Youming Valley, I once told you that I was not found by my family to have a spiritual root when I was born, it was my sixth grandfather who later discovered that I could practice, and I told you at that time that I had a water hidden spiritual root, so it is not wrong, but after all, I still have something to hide from everyone, my spiritual root is actually a kind of spiritual root that is rarer and rarer than the hidden spiritual root, named ...... Companion Root! â
What Tang Ping said now, Qian Chao had a guess in private, but Tang Ping never said it positively or clearly, so Qian Chao listened very carefully, and now it seems that it is the same as his guess.
"Companion Root?" Yan Xuan said curiously.
"What kind of spiritual root is that?" Lu Pingchuan asked.
Li Jian has been waiting for Tang Ping to continue.
Tang Ping continued:
"A person who has a companion spiritual root, must have a partner to come to this person's side in order to start his cultivation path, this partner is not a certain person or some treasure, but a certain kind of spirit beast, and it must be a spirit beast with true spiritual bloodline, so the monk with the companion spiritual root must be a spiritual monk."
"My companion spirit root was opened by Xiaobai. When I was born, I was tested by the elders of the Tang family, and the conclusion at that time was that I didn't have any spiritual roots, and I was an ordinary person who couldn't practice, so I was raised by my parents, and my parents were also mortals who couldn't practice. Later, Xiaobai appeared beside me, which opened the companion spirit root on my body, and then my sixth grandfather came to my house as a guest, and that time he found out that I was actually a doll with a water spirit root, which brought me back to the Tang family, I didn't have a spirit root at first, and then I had a spirit root inexplicably, so the Tang family thought I was a hidden spirit root, and my sixth grandfather also echoed it so casually. â
"Actually, when my sixth grandfather was at my house, he could see at a glance that Xiao Bai was extraordinary, he didn't know that Xiao Bai was the heir of the nine-tailed big sky fox, but at a glance, he could see that Xiao Bai was a spirit beast, why did a spirit beast appear in the house of a mortal who couldn't practice? It must not have been caught by the family themselves, and then he asked the people in my family at that time, including the maid who had been taking care of me, and then he knew that this little white fox appeared on his own, and after he appeared, he was very dependent and intimate with me, playing together, almost never leaving. It was precisely because he had doubts about this matter, so he explored the matter, and after figuring out Xiaobai's bloodline, he also understood that the spiritual root on my body was not a hidden spiritual root at all, but a rare companion spiritual root. â
Hearing this, Li Jian asked puzzledly:
"Miss Tang, is there any difference between the Companion Spirit Root? What are the benefits or harms? Why did Elder Tang keep this secret? â
"Yes, of course there is," Tang Ping said, putting his hand on Xiaobai's body and stroking it, "There may not be many people who know about the Companion Spiritual Root, but if the news that I have the Companion Spiritual Root leaks out, those who are interested will know it as soon as they hear it...... Xiao Bai must be a spirit beast with ancient bloodline inheritance, it is an extremely rare and superb spirit beast, well, the husband is not guilty, he is guilty, if this news leaks out, Xiao Bai will definitely be targeted, in that case, the Tang family will not be able to protect me, I am afraid that Xiao Bai has long been taken away by someone, it is impossible to stay by my side, and Xiao Bai as a spirit beast that opened my companion spirit root, if there is no it, I dare not imagine the end, I am afraid that the best ending is to become an ordinary person who cannot practice again. â
Hearing this, several partners nodded.
"I heard my sixth grandfather say that the companion spirit root is a kind of spiritual root that can continue to grow and constantly replenish itself, which is very different from the ordinary spiritual root, such as a few of us, Brother Li is a wood spirit root, Sister Yan is a fire spirit root, Brother Lu is an earth spirit root, and Qian Boy is a gold spirit root, your spirit root attribute will not change since birth, but the companion spirit root is different, the companion spirit root itself does not have the attributes of the five elements, but depends on the spirit beast that opens the companion spirit root, Xiaobai is a water spirit animal, it opens my companion spirit root, Therefore, my spiritual root has always been a water spirit root, so not only can I follow my master to practice the art of controlling the spirit, but I can also follow my sixth grandfather to learn the authentic Bibo Tan ice control technique, but the accompanying spirit root will not only have only one five-element attribute, it can be transformed according to the five-element attribute of the spirit beast obtained later, ah, it ......"
Speaking of this, Tang Ping gently patted the rhubarb's head on the table and continued:
"Rhubarb's five elements attribute is gold, with it, it makes my companion spirit root have the gold in the five elements, although in terms of external performance I am still a monk of water spirit root, but I can also cast the spell means that need a gold spirit root monk to cast, but the five elements of the attribute of gold spells are really rare. Well, you can give an example like this, for example, whether it is a disciple or an elder in Qixia Mountain, they are generally fire spirit roots, and there are also monks with other spirit roots, but there must be no water spirit roots, right? â
Yan Xuan nodded when he heard this, it is true, it is much more difficult for a monk with a water spirit root to control the flame than other monks with a spirit root, so it is very difficult to open the furnace alchemy or practice the art of fire control.
"If one day I get an ancient true spirit heir with the attribute of fire in the five elements, it is equivalent to having the fire of the five elements in my companion spirit root, although it seems that I am still a disciple of the water spirit root, but I can practice those powerful fire control techniques in Qixia Mountain, if I work it for many years, maybe I can cultivate my own fire spirit like Sister Yan."
"This companion spirit root is so magical?" Yan Xuan said in surprise.
"It's not just that," Tang Ping continued, "Every time a monk with a spiritual root obtains an ancient true spirit heir with different Five Elements attributes, then his cultivation and means will be greatly improved at the same time, and the benefits are unimaginable!" If, well, I mean, if this monk with a spiritual root can get the heirs of five ancient true spirits, and these five spirit beasts are still complete with the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, then this monk will definitely become a great figure who will be famous all over the world, and there is a great possibility that he will eventually ascend to the immortal. â
Even Qian Chao was shocked by these words, not to mention the other three, who all looked at Tang Ping with wide eyes.
"Unexpectedly...... That's ...... like this."
"It's amazing!"
Looking at the expressions on the faces of several partners, Tang Ping's eyes darkened and continued:
"However, the difficulty is also here, just now Brother Li asked me if there is any harm in this companion spirit root, there is no harm in the companion spirit root itself, there is only one difficulty, that is, to find the descendants of five ancient true spirits, five different ancient bloodline inheritances, and it must also be complete with the attributes of the five elements, it is really too difficult. Uncle Qiu Huaqi has been looking for half his life, and he has delayed almost all his things, traveled all over the world, endured hardships, and failed to find an heir of a nine-tailed big sky fox, so he saw that my little white was like crazy and wanted to snatch it, alas, a white fox forced him to be like that! â
"Most of the monks who have accompanied the spiritual root recorded in the classics can only get two or three ancient true spiritual heirs in their lifetime, which means that the five elements of their accompanying spiritual root are uneven, but even so, they all have extraordinary achievements. And my chance should be said to be really good, with the help of my sixth grandfather and master, I got rhubarb early, and later we saw Qingluan outside together, Qingluan is an ancient true spirit of the wood genus, and it came to the Five Spirits Sect to find eggs. Brother Li, Sister Yan, Brother Lu, Boy Qian, now everyone should understand why that Qingluan egg is so important to me, right? This opportunity is really rare, so I have been urging Qian Boy to help me confirm the place where Qingluan may lay eggs, thinking about getting that Qingluan egg as soon as possible, in this way, with Xiaobai and Rhubarb, I can have three descendants of ancient true spirits, among all the monks with accompanying spiritual roots in the past, it can already be regarded as a leader in terms of the number of spirit beasts alone! â
"I see......" Yan Xuan muttered.
And Li Jian had already caught something from Tang Ping's words, he turned his head to look at Qian Chao, and then looked at Tang Ping and said:
"On the day we broke through the Little Five Levels, Brother Qian once said that because we were trapped in the Five Elements Locking Spirit Formation in Little Lotus Lake, there was a very mysterious connection between the five of us, and the cultivation was synchronized, as if we were locked together and always broke through at the same time, and now I listen to Miss Tang talk about her spiritual root, can you think like this, the more ancient true spirit heirs that Miss Tang finds to supplement the attributes of the five elements of her spiritual root, then we will also benefit together?"
Yan Xuan's eyes widened when he heard this, and he looked at Tang Ping.
Money tide says:
"That's the case, there is one thing that can be proven, remember how many of us broke through the third layer of qi refining? At that time, it was the immortals fishing, the monkeys on the Jade Pot Mountain came down to make trouble, Sister Yan dealt with the invading monkeys in the Baicao Garden of Qixia Mountain, Brother Lu and Brother Li dealt with the monkeys who wanted to break in and grab honey in the Zizhu Forest, and Tang Yatou dealt with Rhubarb in the wine cellar of Tang seniors, that time our breakthrough was very abrupt, because the premonition of breaking through before was not strong, and then I asked Tang Yatou when she accepted rhubarb in the wine cellar, which was the time when the four of us broke through the third layer of qi refining at the same time. I think that breakthrough must be related to Tang Yatou's acceptance of rhubarb, which means that the more Ancient True Spirit Heirs Tang Yatou gets, we will definitely benefit at the same time. â
Yan Xuan recalled the scene when she broke through at that time, when she was using the phoenix breath technique to deal with the monkeys in Yuhu Mountain, she was frightened by the sudden fierce flames and fainted directly, and now she couldn't help nodding when she heard Qian Chao say this.
And Lu Pingchuan was in danger before breaking through the third layer, he was being pressed and beaten by a big monkey, if he hadn't suddenly broken through to the third layer of qi refining, he would definitely suffer, so he also agreed with Qian Chao's words.
Li Jian nodded when he heard this, his thoughts were confirmed by Qian Chao, and said:
"In this way, we are bound to get the eggs of Qingluan, and we must help Miss Tang get them."
Lu Pingchuan was happy when he heard it, and said:
"That's right, let's go out and look for it again, well, the Shangguan mother-in-law and the mother-in-law surnamed Lou from the Lion Forest, if they dare to make trouble, they will fight directly until they are scared!"
Hearing the word Shangguan, Yan Xuan suddenly became worried again and said:
"However, we are still in trouble at the moment, and now Qiu Huayu is eyeing Ah Ping, even if he lets go of Ah Ping this time and no longer fights Xiaobai's idea, but his disciples also want the Qingluan egg, in case he can't get Xiaobai, he deliberately makes trouble, before we find the egg or when we find the Qingluan egg, he is a monk of Jiedan, how should we deal with it then? Do you want to ......?"
Yan Xuan means whether to ask some seniors for help.
Qian Chao smiled and said:
"No, Sister Yan, everyone, Tang Yatou has been urging me to find Qingluan's egg, but after seeing Qiu Huayu outside, I was relieved, Tang girl, I guess you can't get that egg......"
"What...... Why! Tang Ping suddenly became anxious.
"Listen to me, you can't get Qingluan's eggs, but we will definitely find the little Qingluan that hatches from the egg, let's put it this way, although I know some spiritual vein science, but after all, the five of us are just refining qi and cultivating, if we are simply looking for the Qingluan egg outside, the five of us must not be as good as Qiu Huagul, in the same time, we may not have arrived at the place, but Qiu Huagul has already found many possible places in a row, I think Qiu Huagul must have rummaged through the sect outside the sect a while ago and couldn't find the egg. But there's a problem here, Tang girl, even if we find that egg, can you guarantee that the egg will be better than the place where the big Qingluan chose to lay eggs for himself with the incubation method of your imperial spirit? Most of your methods are aimed at ordinary spirit birds, right? You also said that Qingluan is a genus of ancient true spirits, so it must have a place far beyond our monks, and will definitely choose an excellent place for your heirs to absorb the aura of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and the moon, and at the same time, that place is not only a place of heavenly power, which can deter the demon beasts outside from approaching, but also a hidden place that we can't find. Well, taking a step back, even if we find the egg before Qiu Huagul, I think it's best to keep it there, not to mention us, even a monk like Qiu Huagul can't find it. â
"That'...... So how can you find the hatched little Qingluan? Tang Ping asked.
"Extraordinary things must have their own life and appearance. When Xiaobai was born, you didn't see it, and so did Rhubarb, there should have been an amazing change in the future, and the birth of an ancient true spirit heir like Qingluan should be the same, and there should be a short period of time for the egg to hatch, I think that when Xiaoqingluan is born, something will happen outside the sect, such as things like the tide of Cold Spring Valley, you go back and ask Tang Senior and Gu Yu Senior if there will be such a thing, of course, we will continue to look for it when we go out. As for Qiu Huayu, I think the sect will definitely deal with the matter of his attack on Tang Yatou this time, and when the time comes, either he is not in the sect or he can't come out to make trouble with us. â
"Why is that?" Yan Xuan asked curiously.
Money tide says:
"I talked to Kang Pu's seniors, he didn't say it in detail, but I can roughly deduce the follow-up direction of the matter, Tang girl, this time Qiu Huayu shot at you, you should be a dumb loss, who made him your uncle, but this matter will definitely have a disposition, not the sect to deal with him, think about it, the sect is so difficult to deal with a Jing Jie, if it weren't for this time we can help the sect deal with the Tian family, Jing Ji will continue to be at ease in the sect, how can he deal with an elder who is a knot Dan severely, What's more, that elder's master is still a Yuanying Patriarch in Jade Pot Mountain, and in the end, this matter can only be handled by your master who came down from Jade Pot Mountain to deal with this matter personally, well, probably you will be able to meet your master soon. â
âĻâĻ
Qian Chao's words can be regarded as fulfilled.
Elder Jiang of the Council Hall came back shortly after ascending the Jade Pot Mountain, but it was not him, and one of them also descended the Jade Pot Mountain with him.
In the clouds and mist, with the sound of cranes, a large and elegant white crane stretched its wings and flew over, Elder Jiang separated from the white crane in mid-air, he still stopped in the air, and respectfully saluted the white crane, and there was an old man sitting on the back of the white crane, and with the white crane flying towards the cave of the Royal Spirit Sect Gu Won Fairy.
