Chapter 194: Qingshu Island (I)
"Gu Daoyou, you seem to know this kind of spiritual fruit?" The sloppy old man's snow-white eyebrows were raised, and he said meaningfully.
"I've just heard of it...... Gu Qing shook his head with a chuckle, met the sloppy old man's gaze, and said, "Mu Kui Daoist seems to know a lot about this bloody spirit fruit? Please clear up."
This sloppy old man called himself Mu Kui, and his cultivation was unknown.
However, this sloppy old man Mu Kui, the power of the divine soul that he had previously revealed, was between the second and third levels of foundation building.
But Gu Qing didn't think that this sloppy old man was a monk in the early stage of foundation building, and the divine soul power displayed by this person before was somewhat suspicious, so as to hide his true cultivation.
Mu Kui still chuckled unchanged and responded, "The effect of this red blood washing spiritual fruit is to cleanse the spiritual root of the monk, condense the spiritual power of the monk, and increase the success rate of the monk in forging the Dao foundation...... Moreover, it can allow the monks who failed to build the foundation to eliminate the impact of the failure, and then try to forge the foundation again."
"I see."
Hearing this, Gu Qing nodded.
He remembered the female cultivator who called herself Tang Yun earlier.
"That junior of Mu Kui Daoyou, but is it called Tang Yun?" Gu Qing was silent for a moment, as if he was thinking, and then asked bluntly.
"Why, Gu Daoyou has seen that girl?" Mu Kui's expression was a little surprised, "This matter of washing the spirit fruit with red blood is indeed the old man's ...... Well, that's what happened!"
Mu Kui said, glanced at Gu Qing, seemed to think of something, his face became more abrupt, and he sighed: "Before, the old man didn't know where this girl got this news, but now it seems that this girl is in Qingxi Town, where Gu Daoyou is, and got this news!" I never thought that Qingxi Town, a place where mortals live, except for people like Gu Daoyou who live in seclusion here, still hides such amazing secrets."
Gu Qing said, "Mu Daoyou praised it."
"That female cultivator Tang Yun turned out to be a junior of Mu Kui Daoyou! Fortunately, some time ago, Gu Mou didn't hurt the killer, otherwise, I really don't know what kind of attitude I should take to face Mu Kui Daoyou today!"
Mu Kui waved his hand again and again: "Gu Daoyou's words are a little heavy!"
"That girl offended Gu Daoyou, even if she was really killed, the old man would never avenge her, let alone ruin her friendship with Gu Daoyou! Gu Daoyou can rest assured of this."
"It's the thing that the old man said before, I don't know what Gu Daoyou is thinking about? Are you interested in the lost realm?"
At the end of the words, Mu Kui asked.
Previously, Mu Kui had already told Gu Qingyan that they went to the deep sea more than 1,800 miles away here and found a strange place, which was suspected to be a secret realm left by a certain great sect in the past.
Originally, the secret realm was not in the deep sea, but on a large island, but later due to the change of the leylines, the island was torn apart, and part of it fell into the deep sea.
And on this part of the island in the deep sea, there is a huge city called 'Yidu', which was originally the capital of a mortal kingdom on top of that large island that was divided into parts.
Metropolitan ......
In response to Mu Kui's informing Gu Qing of the sixteen characters, the beginning of the 'yi', it seems that Mu Kui thinks that this 'yi' character refers to the Yidu, and this matter should be corroborated by the people of the declining monk family, and the credibility should be more than eighty percent.
Gu Qing straightened his body and said, "What Mu Daoyou said before, Gu Mou is a little interested...... However, Gu is working under the owner of Changming Island, so it is not good to leave without resignation, if he delays the affairs of the owner of Changming Island, he really can't afford it."
The owner of Changming Island?
Mu Kui's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise and jealousy.
Gu Qing didn't wait for Mu Kui's response, so he continued: "Gu plans to go back to Changming Island first and inform the island owner...... I don't know how long it will take for Mu Daoyou to say?"
"Three days is enough to return." Mu Kui made a slight assessment and responded, then reached out and grabbed it, took out a communication talisman and handed it to Gu Qing, "If Daoyou is interested in participating in this matter, you can hold this communication talisman and come to Donghui Island to find the old man within half a month."
Gu Qing nodded and took the messenger.
This is a gray-colored communication talisman, it seems to be the shape of a cloud, there is nothing special, Gu Qing turned his hand and put it into the storage ring, then stood up and hugged Mu Kui.
"Gu is leaving!"
Leaving Mu Kui's cloud boat, Gu Qing flew away in the direction of Changming Island, and after half an hour, the speed slowed down slightly.
Gu Qing stood in the clouds and mist, squinting his eyes.
He was naturally extremely wary of this sudden appearance and invited him to participate in the exploration of a declining monk clan and the Lost Secret Realm, after all, this person's cultivation was unknown, and he deliberately showed the power of the divine soul in the early stage of foundation building.
Gu Qing thought for a while, and he was sure in his heart.
'That secret realm, on the premise of ensuring safety, you might as well take a look ahead, at present, my ancient demon true body has reached eighty-three zhang, and it is expected that it will be difficult for a mid-stage cultivator to break through this body's defenses! Red Blood Wash Spirit Fruit...... If such a precious thing really exists in that secret realm, it is not impossible to do this...... This fruit is excellent whether you sell it or consume it on your own.
Gu Qing's thoughts surged for a while, and finally calmed down.
Immediately, he took out the map of the sea area from the storage ring on the end of his fingers, distinguished the direction, and quickly put away the map of the sea area, and flew away towards Qingshu Island, where the Scattered Cultivation Alliance was located.
The sky is wide and cloudy.
In Gu Qing's eyes, he quickly retreated, the same deep blue sea, the islands that appeared from time to time, and the sporadic monks retreated, like a picture scroll that was constantly repeated, under the strong wind blowing in the face, the black robe on his body was constantly agitated, and his tall figure seemed to be integrated into the wind, so he pulled out an extremely long black line between the sea and the sky.
Shout!
The sound of breaking the sky became very sharp.
Gu Qingru flew away for about three hours, and finally crossed tens of thousands of miles and came to the front of Qingshu Island, where the Scattered Cultivation Alliance was located.
Qingshu Island is on the edge of the sea map in Gu Qing's hands, and for the 3.5 million miles of Linyu Sea area, this Qingshu Island is in the center, and Gu Qing obviously noticed that the aura of heaven and earth nearby was getting stronger and stronger in the process of coming to Qingshu Island.
Qingshu Island was shrouded in a white spiritual mist, and the dark night turned everything on Qingshu Island into a blurred black shadow.
Gu Qing felt a little surprised.
Qingshu Island is the island where the Linyu Sea Scattered Cultivation Alliance is located, and it stands to reason that it should be extremely prosperous, and it is full of a large number of advanced cultivators, but from a distance, there is not the slightest spiritual light on the island, but the number of monks here is still in line with his guess.
Just after Gu Qing came to the outside of Qingshu Island and disappeared on the beach of Qingshu Island, he noticed something.
Gu Qing's heart moved, and from the storage ring, he took out the thing given by the old Taoist of the long lamp, the jade ornament of the unknown demon beast, this thing was already bright, and a halo of light spread out towards the surroundings.
What happened next made Gu Qing's pupils shrink.
He saw that the halo emanating from this jade ornament, after it appeared, it was rapidly dimmed, just enveloping his body, and it had been completely extinguished, as if it was swallowed by something in the darkness!
Gu Qing was suspicious in his heart, but he didn't dwell on the matter.
He held the jade ornament, and looked to the side of the jade, where a light was sticking to the ground, and it was sweeping towards it.
This retreat light is a dull yellow color, faintly emitting the fluctuations of the Divine Walking Talisman, and looking at the speed of the escape, it should be a monk who has cultivated in the late stage of Qi refining, urging the Divine Walking Talisman and is rushing towards him.
'Is it someone arranged by the old way?'
Gu Qing secretly guessed in his heart.
The dim yellow light came to an abrupt end in front of Gu Qing, and a fat-faced monk with a wide body and a fat body appeared in front of him with a serious face, and his cultivation was at the twelfth layer of qi refining.
The tall, fat-faced monk who was like a wall hugged his fist at Gu Qing: "The junior has punished Wanzong and has seen the senior."
"The family teacher has already been transmitted, and the seniors have come with the juniors."
The tall fat-faced monk who claimed to be the Xing Wanzong made a gesture of invitation to Gu Qing, and he led the way in front of his head, he slapped a magic talisman on his leg, and a dim yellow light appeared around his body again.
Gu Qing's expression was a little strange.
He looked at the light in the distance, and felt a little amused at this tall, fat-faced monk who didn't even let him speak.
Gu Qing shook his head, and followed closely behind with a single step.
He took one step, often silently, and then swept dozens of zhang, and when he followed this Ten Thousand Sects forward, Gu Qing was still looking at the situation around him.
The situation on Qingshu Island was as he thought.
According to his perspective from the sky and clouds, it is not difficult to calculate that this Qingshu Island has a radius of three or four hundred miles, which is not small.
On the three or four hundred miles of Qingshu Island, there are basically no ordinary people, all of them are monks, and there are countless magic weapons, ornaments, and spiritual materials that emit spiritual power fluctuations on the stalls, shops, and even monks, but the spiritual light emitted by these things is swallowed by something in the dark, which is also the reason why the light on Qingshu Island is as dim as the sky.
It's just that I don't know why the thing that exists in the darkness on Qingshu Island doesn't devour the skylight, but only devours all kinds of spiritual light.
Xing Wanzong soon took Gu Qing to Qingshu Island, at the foot of a mountain peak that was quite steep and the top was submerged into the thick spiritual mist.
Seeing Xing Wanzong's body disappear, looking at the mountain peak in front of him with a serious face, Gu Qing knew that the mountain peak in front of him was the Scattered Cultivation Alliance in the Linyu Sea Region, and he looked up.
A rather depressed feeling appeared in the bottom of his heart.
'Here, most of the people will be in charge.
'Even, there is more than one old monster sitting in the town!
Gu Qing calmly and with difficulty retracting his gaze.
I don't know how high this mountain peak is, but it is always below a thousand zhang, and the foot of the entire mountain peak is shrouded in formation glow, only where Xing Wanzong took Gu Qing to, there was a cracked portal.
"Please show up." Xing Wanzong bowed and clenched his fists, saluting at the formation glow in front of him and the cracked portal.
A female cultivator in a black dress came out of the cracked portal and quietly landed in front of Xing Wanzong, first glanced at Gu Qing, then looked at Xing Wanzong, and said, "There are distinguished guests in the alliance, my father has gone to accompany me, if you have anything to do with Xing Daoyou, you can tell me about it."
Xing Wanzong raised his head and looked at the black-dressed nun.
He frowned imperceptibly.
This female cultivator in the black dress is called Bu Ling, and her cultivation is also at the twelfth layer of Qi refining, which is not far from the time when he broke through to this realm.
Obviously, it is not enough to receive this Gu Qing senior.
But Xing Wanzong didn't say anything, but calmly introduced Gu Qing to the woman in the black dress, Xiu Buling: "Daoist Buling, this is Gu Qing's predecessor, this time he was recommended by his family teacher to join the alliance, and he also asked Buling Daoist to open this door and let Xing Mou bring Gu senior into the alliance to establish an alliance."
Bu Ling secretly glanced at Gu Qing with a somewhat curious gaze, but now that she knew that this was a foundation building senior, she didn't dare to look too hard.
"Have you ever carried the token of the predecessor of the long lamp?" Bu Ling asked.
Coming out of the heavily guarded mountain where the Scattered Cultivation Alliance was located, Gu Qing stood in front of the portal where the glow of the formation at the foot of the mountain had cracked before.
"The junior is now retiring."
Xing Wanzong passed through the portal, he saluted Gu Qing with a glance, and then his tall body turned around and walked away.
The Scattered Cultivation Alliance with darkness as the main color, the solemn halls, and the strong aura in the depths of the halls, as well as the extremely binding alliance, made Gu Qing's heart attach great importance to this Scattered Cultivation Alliance to an astonishing level.
Gu Qing held a lapidium identity plate issued by the Scattered Cultivation Alliance in his hand, quietly watched Xing Wanzong leave, turned around and looked at the mysterious mountain that hid many strong people.
'There are so many strong people in the Scattered Cultivation Alliance, and the alliance of the monk families in the Linyu Sea Region is terrifying. &
amp; quot; Gu Qing sighed secretly in his heart and put away Qingjin's identity nameplate.
There are not many Xiuzhenfang cities on Qingshu Island.
In fact, the entire island of Qingshu Island can be regarded as a large Xiuzhen Fang City, and its prosperity far exceeds that of Kurong Fang, which Gu Qing once stayed in and is now destroyed.
Gu Qing came out of the peak where the Scattered Cultivation Alliance was stationed, and he was in the bustling Xiuzhenfang City on Qingshu Island, and he walked around.
When he came here, Gu Qing had already counted the storage bags of the more than twenty Qi Refining Cultivators that he had harvested at the pass in the desert island sea area before, and among the storage bags left by the twenty or so Qi Refining Cultivators, it was not surprising that there was nothing worthy of his attention.
From these storage bags, Gu Qing obtained more than 5,300 lower-grade spirit stones and 127 middle-grade spirit stones, of which the lower-grade spirit stones were transferred to the stone tablet space by him on the way.
And the medium-grade spirit stone is naturally an income storage ring.
Now, the number of Gu Qing's medium-grade spirit stones has reached two hundred and twenty-seven, which is not too shallow.
Many monks in the early stage of foundation building are estimated to be this net worth, and they will never have several spiritual weapons like him.
Now the spiritual weapons that Gu Qing has used, not counting the five spiritual weapon sword embryos that are close to being scrapped, there are as many as four.
The lower-grade spiritual weapon Heavy Water Xuanzhu, the medium-grade spiritual weapon Jiumiao Tianhua Treasure Wheel, plus the Tongshan Seal of the spiritual weapon obtained from Li Hengyang and I don't know what grade, as well as the Phantom Thunder Ding that contains several worlds in the Dingzhong.
Among these four spiritual artifacts.
The Nine Wonderful Heavenly Treasure Wheel can be transformed into a fake appearance of his own body, or anything he has seen, to confuse the enemy, and the Heavy Water Xuanzhu is a treasure that attaches equal importance to attack and defense, but so far he has not condensed the heavy water, and he cannot exert the power of this treasure.
As for the Tongshan seal, it is also a treasure that attaches equal importance to attack and defense, and can conjure up the phantom of the extremely heavy giant peak, or brutally suppress the enemy's cultivation, or use it to seal the town and seal the body for defensive purposes.
It's just that this treasure consumes too much spiritual power, Gu Qing has tried to sacrifice this treasure in the stone tablet space, but with his current cultivation, just sacrificing this treasure, he will consume two to three percent of the spiritual power, if the imperial envoy makes this treasure hit with all his strength, the spiritual power in the body will be exhausted.
It is true that the power of this treasure's full force attack is quite impressive, and it can even be compared to his full force attack with the power of the ancient demon.
But with the power of the ancient demons, after striking with all his strength, the consumption can be described as very small, and he can recover quickly, and the imperial envoy Tongshan Yin blows with all his strength, and the five-colored lotus platform in his body is depleted and the dantian qi sea will also become dim, and even the divine soul will have a little chaos!
Therefore, although Gu Qing had already successfully refined this Tongshan seal, he did not plan to use this treasure for a long time.
'The Nine Wonders Heavenly Treasure Wheel, although the power that erupted after urging it is not bad, but for me, it is still the most practical to use it to transform the appearance...... If you want to use the heavy water Xuanzhu, you should take the time to condense the heavy water and fill it up to see how powerful it can be...... Kiriyama Seal aside...... Phantom Thunder Ding, not to mention. Gu Qing walked in the Xiuzhenfang City on Qingshu Island, picking and choosing in front of the stalls.
Gu Qing was in a remote stall, and his steps were paused.
He staggered past the monk in front of several stalls, squatted down, his eyes were full of light, and observed a kind of rune paper sold in this stall, this kind of rune paper was a faint red, with a slight bloody smell, and a subtle luster circulated on it, which looked very evil.
All in all, it is very different from ordinary rune paper.
But......
Gu Qing was a second-order talisman master, and judging from his many years of experience, the quality of this kind of rune paper was no less than the rune paper he had purchased in Yinyuefang City on Changming Island before, which could be used to draw second-order high-grade spirit runes!
"How do you value this kind of rune paper?" Gu Qing pointed to a few piles of demonic crimson rune paper on the stall and asked the stall owner.
The stall owner's figure was shrouded in a wide black robe, sitting straight at the back of the stall, hearing Gu Qing's words, he turned his head.
Gu Qing could sense that under the stall owner's black robe, a sharp gaze shot straight at him, looking at him quietly, as if he had never noticed this gaze, he did not move
looked at the stall owner with a voice.
"This rune paper is a pile of a hundred sheets, and the price is one hundred and fifty medium-grade spirit stones." The stall owner responded to Gu Qing with an extremely harsh voice that was mostly deliberately disguised, "If you sell it, you will not return it, and you should be cautious."
The voice seemed to be a little teasing.
Gu Qing nodded: "In this case, then let's take a look first."
With that, he turned and walked away.
This is not that Gu Qing thinks that the stall owner's offer is too expensive, but that his current two hundred and thirty-seven medium-grade spirit stones are used for other purposes.
Wandering around this huge and prosperous Xiuzhenfang City, Gu Qing had a feeling of eye-opening, in the past, he was indeed the frog at the bottom of the well, and he couldn't imagine what this world really looked like.
Fortunately, after building the foundation, he also has some qualifications to really understand the world, but it is just a few qualifications, in this square market, turning around, the foundation building monks he saw, not a hundred but eighty, more than he can sense the existence of cultivation!
Among them, how many old monsters are there?
Will there be the existence of that Yuanying True Monarch?
Gu Qing looked at the old man on the rattan chair in the dilapidated shop on the side of the road, and it was possible that he was an unimaginably strong existence—if he wasn't strong, how could he be so passive and slacking off?
It is precisely because he is strong enough that he will operate the store that is incomparably precious in the eyes of others to such a bleak point!
'There are a total of twenty-seven shops and stalls here that can repair magic weapons and spiritual weapons, and the more reliable one is the one that is backed by the Scattered Cultivation Alliance, which is called Wandun Valley...... Let's call it a store.
Gu Qing walked straight and crossed the small half of Qingshu Island.
He came to the front of a small valley, and in the distance, he could see huge furnaces several feet high, standing in the valley, and there was an endless stream of monks coming and going in the valley, and it was obvious that the business was excellent.
An inconspicuous iron-gray plaque hangs on the cross-cut of the mountain peak on the side of the valley, and the three big characters of 'Ten Thousand Forging Valley' are engraved on the plate, and there is also the symbol of the Scattered Cultivation Alliance in the lower right corner—it is a sword ruin formed by countless broken swords, gathered together.
The sword ruin logo of the Scattered Cultivation Alliance is black and white, and it looks like it is made of tree branches interspersed indiscriminately, but if your eyes fall on it, it immediately becomes a sharp and tragic feeling, and it rushes straight in front of you.
Gu Qing stood for a moment and walked towards the Ten Thousand Forging Valley.
A few breaths later.
In a temple built between many furnaces in the Ten Thousand Forging Valley, Gu Qing, who was in a black robe, sat on a chair and waited quietly.
The person in charge of receiving him in the Ten Thousand Forging Valley, after seeing his blue and gold identity plate, had gone to the elders of the Ten Thousand Forging Valley.
The elders of the Ten Thousand Forging Valley are all second-grade and above refiners, and they have refined at least one spiritual weapon, and Gu Qing doesn't know much about the way of refining, but he only knows that the steps of refining weapons are cumbersome, and there are probably several big steps such as soul melting, tempering, and engraving spirit patterns.
Gu Qing didn't wait too long.
A few more breaths passed, and his eyes flashed slightly.
Several heavy footsteps sounded from outside the hall, and a moving mountain of meat swayed like this, appearing in front of Gu Qing's eyes.
"This is Gu Qing Daoyou in the alliance, right? In Shimogakaze." The fat on this mountain of meat trembled slightly, revealing a huge bald head, on the bald face, the facial features were all crowded together, and the black and white eyes with only a line looked at Gu Qing, "I heard that Gu Daoyou has a set of spiritual weapon sword embryos that need to be repaired? I wonder how damaged this set of spiritual artifact sword embryos is?"
Gu Qing looked at the tall young man who had received him from behind him, who claimed to be He Feng's cultivator, and under the backdrop of He Feng's mountain-like body, this young man actually looked a little petite.
"Ho Feng Daoyou! This is the set of spiritual artifact sword embryos." Seeing that He Feng of the Ten Thousand Forging Valley was so straightforward, Gu Qing didn't have the slightest idea of greeting, and directly took out the five spirit weapon sword embryos.
