Chapter Thirty-Six: Meeting and Going to Sea

After refining for a day and a night, Qiao Yue almost died of exhaustion, and she ate more than a dozen elixirs alone, so she persevered.

After the refining was completed, Qiao Yue let out a long breath, and then realized that there was a hint after the exercise, the qi refiner was weak, and the foundation builder was lingsheng, and the foundation was built to refine, so as to succeed.

This is too subtle to say, and it probably means that the spiritual power of the cultivators in the Qi refining period is not enough to refine this Vermilion Bird Flame......

However, this exercise is ancient and difficult to understand, it must be the ancient method, Qiao Yue has also learned in the classics, the ancient monks are stronger than the current monks, because alchemy was not developed at that time, and everyone's cultivation is real.

Therefore, the exercises of that era were very friendly to any qualifications, and there was no restriction on qualifications. It's a pity that the times have changed, and the entire immortal cultivation world has declined.

After thinking about it for a while, Qiao Yue just wanted to try a new spell, but suddenly jumped up as if she had been stepped on by her tail, put away her defensive formation, jumped directly off the ice spur, and ran out like a fly.

I really forgot, the sect meeting of the Heavenly Pole Sect is about to start! Qiao Yue's footsteps moved quickly, the cold wind around her was cold, and a huge forest of ice thorns swept past her.

It would not be good if this was missed by the sect conference, Qiao Yue always remembered that there had been a small conflict in the eastern Linhai five years ago, and now it ...... Who knows if the coastal front was pulled to the north?

This kind of sect conference was nothing, but it happened to be in troubled times, and a sect conference could reveal a lot of news.

Rushing over along the way, Qiao Yue saw that the patriarchs of other tribes also set off, most of them were sitting on sleighs, and there were only a few strong male cultivators, braving the cold wind and running towards the Tianji Gate like Qiao Yue.

Bingyuan Square is located in the back mountain of Tianji Mountain, Qiao Yue came to the gate of the mountain, and saw thousands of Qi refining monks wearing Tianji Gate costumes, already standing in a row, lined up in front of the mountain.

After all, her appearance and figure are different from those of the northerners, and as soon as she came over, she attracted the attention of several people, and Qiao Yue had no choice but to laugh stupidly. Seeing that there was a very friendly female cultivator in front of her, she asked, "This senior sister, where is the Ice Plains Square?"

The rugged senior sister's voice was like a Hong Zhong, and she smiled heartily: "When I see that the junior sister is from outside! The Ice Field Square is in the back mountain, let's line up and go through the tunnel!"

Qiao Yue nodded again and again: "So that's the case, senior sister, what meeting are we going to have?"

"Don't worry, let's see what the uncles have to say. I've been a disciple for more than ten years, and I've never encountered such a grand scene. ”

"Oh...... "Even a disciple of more than ten years has never encountered this big scene, could it be that there is some trouble in this northern part of the country?" Qiao Yue took a deep breath and looked up at Tianji Mountain, where there was no end in sight.

Over the years, the north has been locked down, and of course the eastern affairs are not very clear.

But Qiao Yue knew that there had already been a conflict between the five major sects and Lingyang City. Even mortals have been fighting for years, and the years are long among monks, so how can these complex conflicts be resolved in just a few years?

The team moved slowly, through the tunnel that ran through the iceberg for more than 100 miles, people next to each other, people crowded with people, still orderly, and the team was not chaotic.

There were guards on both sides of the hundred-mile tunnel, and the funny thing was that the tunnel was pitch black, and the disciples were holding torches in their hands, which made Qiao Yue feel that this was a sect of cultivating immortals, it was simply a bandit village in the mountains.

Suddenly there was a clear sky in front of him, and the cold wind was blowing in his face, and Qiao Yue sensitively noticed that the temperature here was higher than that of the Ice Thorn Forest, and it was also a little humid, probably because of the proximity to the ocean.

Standing still in this ice field square, tens of thousands of Qi refining disciples faced the sea, stood in a phalanx, and quietly waited for Uncle Zhuji to speak.

In the distant sky, ten white-clothed male cultivators stepped on a cloud-shaped magic weapon and calmly flew into the air.

The two in the middle glanced at each other, and one of them cleared his throat and said loudly, "Hello everyone, disciples of Tianji Sect's Qi Refining!"

For some reason, the Qi refining disciples in the square applauded in unison, and the momentum was as loud as thunder, and they didn't know who commanded it.

In order not to be so special, Qiao Yue also applauded vigorously, and her hands were red.

The applause receded like a tide, and the man smiled with satisfaction, took out a piece of jade slip, dipped his sense, and read the contents of the jade slip.

This action made Qiao Yue speechless. I thought that no matter how grand the sect conference was, it was just holding the jade Jiannian, and I didn't often have to applaud it from time to time.

And there are always a few special Qi refining little cultivators in the team, who are not very old and not small, with their hands behind their backs, and they also have to hold the ring ruler, staring at people viciously, and anyone who does not applaud will receive their eye knives.

Qiao Yue didn't take it seriously just now, thinking that he was just a deacon disciple in the sect, but later he saw someone next to him openly dozing off, and the little monk immediately gave him a precept.

That person was also in the late stage of Qi refining, and he was a junior brother who was considered a minor monk in terms of age and cultivation, but instead of being angry, he lowered his head and made amends.

Now Qiao Yue understands that these little monks, the eight achievements are Qiao Yu's kind, the background is relatively strong, and he is a dog in the sect.

Alas, no matter where you are, there will be a situation where the power oppresses people.

Qiao Yue dared to kill a Shen Sigui who was named in the Tianji Gate, but she also had to bow her head in front of these young disciples who were reused, this kind of thing is really easy to use.

The rules and regulations stood for more than two hours, and the ten people above were verbose for a long time, in fact, there was only one meaning in total, let the disciples all get on the boat and go to sea, looking for the source of the fluctuation of the spiritual energy on the seabed.

To put it bluntly, it's a thankless job, and if you do a good job, you will be rewarded with a few spirit stones, and no one will care if you don't do it well and be eaten by sea beasts.

Qiao Yue was troubled when she heard this, so she simply opened her eyes and wandered, and her feet were numb, but the few annoying lackeys around her were still staring at them carefully, and they didn't even dare to move.

After the first two monks finished speaking, Qiao Yue recovered from his distraction, and the ten people landed and went to drive the boat, leaving the little lackeys to watch, and then there were three or three disciples and two disciples gathered together to talk.

Qiao Yue listened to what they meant, and actually wanted to withdraw from this operation to the sea.

How is this possible, I don't know what they are thinking. Those foundation-building monks made it clear that this trip to sea was a collective task, and even the disciples in retreat were forced to leave the customs. Don't think about going back when you stand on the ice square, and get on the boat one by one.

To be honest, Qiao Yue was also a little uncomfortable in her heart, how could she seem to have returned to the Ancient Sword Sect again, and she didn't even have the freedom to choose.

But if they are all on a thief ship, how can there be any reason not to go to sea?

Tianjimen didn't even have a chance to buffer the disciples this time, and more than 10,000 qi refining disciples, no matter how much they cultivated, how good their health was, whether they took life-saving items or not, and whether they had confessed their last words, they rushed a group of people to the port like ducks on the shelves.

The sea near the harbor was full of floating ice, and ten ships went out to sea in the middle of the ice floe, and the sea breeze blew and rose and fell on the sea.

Qiao Yue had really never seen the sea, let alone the ship that could accommodate thousands of people, so she couldn't let go of this opportunity, so she stared at the nearest big ship and observed it carefully.

The streamlined large ship, the whole hull shape is like a sea whale, estimated to be 100 zhang long and 30 zhang wide. The upper part of the hull was completely transparent, revealing the wide silver deck.

However, Qiao Yue guessed that the transparent cover was not ice, but something like transparent glass crystal.

The lower part of the boat was all silver, and the sides of the boat were painted with golden formation patterns, and there was a water-blue light flashing between the lines, Qiao Yue couldn't tell what it was from a distance, but she faintly felt that it was Bingling Stone.

Using the Ice Stones as the Spirit Stones inlaid in the formation, the Tianji Gate is worthy of being a monopoly, and it has the Ice Stones mined in the entire Ice Thorn Forest as its own.

It's right to think about it, Qiao Yue is a Qi refining cultivator as a patriarch, and he has received several pieces in five years, and this Ice Ling Stone should still be produced more in the north.

Besides, the aura stored in the Ice Stone is a thousand times that of ordinary spirit stones, and after using it, you can slowly absorb the aura on your own, and it is enough to circulate it.

Otherwise, a ship as big as this would probably take tens of millions of spirit stones to open the formation.

I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd of Tianjimen, the cost of driving a ship to the sea is so big, if there is no greater profit, it will be too much of a loss.

Obviously, Tianjimen did not intend to tell the disciples the true purpose of going to sea this time now, and only asked the disciples to work together not to back down.

Qiao Yue secretly cursed in her heart, Tianjimen is not honest and honest, and he still expects his disciples to work hard for you, thinking beautifully!

Suddenly, the crowd was agitated and noisy, and the ten large ships in the harbor all let out a huge humming sound, which was deafening.

The crowd was noisy, and the flow of people parted in an instant, pushing and moving towards the boat. There are all to the west and east, but most of them want to squeeze into the first one.

It's really strange, just now I said that a foundation building uncle brought more than 1,000 people, and they all said okay, why is it that half of the people are squeezing into the first boat now, aren't you afraid that you won't be able to sit down.

Looking around, it seems that there are few who go to the last one, Qiao Yue has made up her mind, anyway, she is not for meritorious service, which ship is different?

It just so happened that the rugged senior sister just now didn't like to crowd around with people, and going to the tenth ship with Qiao Yue was simply going against the flow of people.

Qiao Yue only now found out that this senior sister's strength was not less than her, her cultivation of Qi Refining and Great Perfection, her intertwined muscles, and she was protected as a little sister, protecting her all the way in front of Qiao Yue. With a wave of his thick arm, he opened a way and went backwards to the tenth ship.

The surroundings were deserted, as if only two or three people were on the boat sporadically, which was completely different from the miserable situation of the first, second and third boats in the distance, with people stacked on top of each other.

The rugged senior sister couldn't help laughing, and mocked: "Look at them, they are squeezed into meat filling, don't you think this time to go to sea is uncomfortable enough!"

This man's voice can't be lowered. Qiao Yue reluctantly followed this senior sister to an empty corner of Class A, facing the sea, lying on the transparent cover and looking down.

Qiao Yue remembered that she hadn't introduced herself yet, so she hurriedly said, "Senior sister, my name is Qiao Yue, I don't know your name yet, it's not easy to find you in the future." ”

Senior Sister looked down at Qiao Yue, who was only up to her chest, "My name is Qin Shengnan, you can just call me Shengnan!

Qin Shengnan's heart was straightforward, and Qiao Yue couldn't help nodding yes.

It seems that she is also a powerful character, with high cultivation, a spicy and refreshing temperament, and she doesn't like to chew her tongue, she hates hypocrisy, and she is worth befriending.

Qiao Yue hadn't spoken to anyone casually since she left Jiang Shaohang, and this Qin Shengnan and her were familiar at first sight, so they simply talked to relieve their boredom.

"Sister Katsunan, what do you think...... What are you going to do on this trip?"

"Who knows! I don't bother to pay attention to it, but I have to go to the sea to find aura fluctuations, dispatch so many people, drive ten boats at a time, if you can't find something good, it will be a great loss. Qin Shengnan also hit the nail on the head when he saw things, which coincided with Qiao Yue's thoughts.

"Yes. But why did they all go to the boat in front?" Qiao Yue was puzzled by this matter, it is said that these boats are the same.

"You don't know, the ship in front is new, safe, this time to go to the open sea, of course the new ship is easy to use. Our ship has been on this ship for more than a thousand years, and after some tinkering, of course they don't dare to come up. Those who come up are new to you. ”

Qiao Yue wanted to cry a little without tears, "I said it......! What can I do......"

"What should I do? Liang Ban, it's a big deal, and after twenty years, he will be a good man again!" Qin Shengnan patted his chest muscles and smiled heroically. It seems that there is nothing in this world that is worth her fear, and death is the result.

Qiao Yue banged her head on the transparent cover, thinking silently in her heart: What kind of person is this!
