Chapter 593: Exchanging Maps
When the four of them saw the handsome man leaving, the woman in black barely stopped, let alone said goodbye, and walked directly downstairs.
Li Jiang turned his head and nodded to Qiao Yuan, as if he had said hello, and left with the woman in black.
And Qiao Yuan showed a smiling face, and said with a fist to Ji Lang.
"Ji Daoyou, I said goodbye. ”
"Qiao Daoyou walked slowly, and he won't send it down. ”
Although Ji Lang was a little unhappy because of what happened before, he was a knowledgeable person who knew how to understand etiquette, so he also pulled the corners of his mouth, showed a smile, and replied with his fists clenched.
Qiao Yuan nodded, turned around and went down the Imperial Wind Pavilion.
When she returned to her residence, Qinglian immediately greeted her with worry in her eyes and hurriedly asked.
"What's going on? Why have you been around for so long?"
"It's fine, it's just a day of waiting. ”
Qiao Yuan had a reassuring smile on his face and said lightly.
Qinglian breathed a sigh of relief and continued to ask.
"What the hell does that guy want you to help with?"
"It's just to help pick an elixir, it's not a difficult task. ”
Ten Thousand Forbidden Peaks are extremely dangerous, if he is not good at prohibition, even if the Yuan Infant Monk goes, he will die for a lifetime, he naturally can't tell Qinglian, so he casually perfunctory.
Qinglian is not a little white rabbit who is easy to deceive, just thinking about it, he knows that what that person made Qiao Yuan do must be very dangerous, otherwise he would not say such things perfunctory to himself.
However, she also knew Qiao Yuan's personality and knew that he acted in a very measured manner, since she didn't want to say it, Qinglian wouldn't ask questions.
The two stayed in Luoxia City for another three days, then left together and rushed to the forbidden source in the easternmost part of the Donglai Kingdom.
It is said that the forbidden source land is located in a primeval jungle that stretches for tens of thousands of miles, and there is a formation shrouded in weekdays, and it is not clear to see, and only when the forbidden source land is about to be opened, the formation will slowly dissipate, revealing its inner scenery.
And only then can the monk hold the Forbidden Box and enter the interior of the Forbidden Place.
As for why they have to hold the forbidden box, no one knows this, but for thousands of years, there have been people who have relied on the extremely high level of the forbidden formation to make it, and they don't need the forbidden box, and they can break into the forbidden source land alone.
It's a pity that those people were either trapped and killed in the formation, or they were wiped out on the spot by some powerful prohibitions, even the Yuanying Great Perfection Cultivator was no exception, and there was no way to live.
Since then, no monk has dared to break into the forbidden source land without holding the forbidden box, but fortunately, every time the forbidden source land erupts, there are a lot of forbidden boxes, and only a little family property can be bought at auction.
Now Qiao Yuan has three forbidden boxes on his body, one is from Qi Dechang, and the other two are from the Ten Thousand Ghosts.
Qiao Yuan originally wanted to take out the extra forbidden box and sell it, but since Qinglian decided to go to the forbidden source land as well, he gave one to Qinglian, used one for himself, and left one to study the Mu Ji Forbidden above.
Five days passed in a blink of an eye, and under Qiao Yuan's non-stop hurry, the two finally came to the easternmost part of Donglai Kingdom.
This is a vast primeval jungle, which is rarely set foot in ordinary times, except for some casual cultivators who hunt monsters for a living, and live on the periphery of the jungle all year round.
When Qiao Yuan and Qinglian came to this place, they could see the collapsed ground and the towering giant trees that broke off at the waist, as well as the corpses of some third-order demon beasts, and it was obvious that many monks had already arrived here in advance, breaking the silence here.
The Forbidden Source Land was located in the very center of this jungle, and Qiao Yuan had been there once more than twenty years ago, but at that time he had only glanced at it from a distance, and had not come closer.
At this moment, Qiao Yuan was familiar with the road, and he and Qinglian quickly flew towards the center of the jungle.
Because many monks had already opened the way, the two of them did not encounter any blind demon beasts along the way.
In the past two hours, they saw from afar a large group of monks standing in the air, sitting cross-legged on a tree, or standing on the hillside, waiting for something.
The arrival of the two was like a pebble thrown into the river, and it couldn't make too many waves at all, only some people who had seen Qiao Yuan and Qinglian had different expressions on their faces.
"Haha...... Qiao Daoyou, Qinglian Daoyou, you are finally here!"
Before Qiao Yuan could take in all the appearances of the group of monks, he heard a hearty smile coming from far and near.
There is no need to turn his head to look, he also knows who it is, Qiao Yuan showed a smile on his face, turned around and hugged his fist towards the visitor.
"Let you fellow Daoists wait for a long time. ”
There were a total of five people who came, and Qiao Yuan knew all of them, it was Jiang Feng, Jiang Mu, and several other Jindan monks of the Jiang family.
Qiao Daoyou was polite,...... Qinglian Daoyou?...... No, it should be called Qinglian senior now. ”
The five of them came to Qiao Yuan in a moment, Jiang Feng said politely with a smile on his face, and found that Qinglian was already a Yuan Infant Monk, and his expression immediately changed, and he said.
Just now, Qinglian didn't exude momentum, and it was normal for the five people not to notice it, but now that they were only a foot apart, Jiang Feng and the others immediately sensed the spiritual power fluctuations around Qinglian.
At the same time, they also noticed that Qiao Yuan's cultivation had reached the realm of Jindan Great Perfection.
Jiang Feng secretly thought that Qiao Yuan was still a monk in the late stage of Jindan, so he could kill the Ten Thousand Ghosts Master, and defeat the sword and leave the river, and now that his cultivation has gone further, how strong should it be.
Thinking of this, Jiang Feng secretly swore in his heart that he must be good friends with Qiao Yuan, this person can only be a friend, not an enemy.
Qinglian still looked extremely cold, nodded at Jiang Feng, and did not speak.
Jiang Mu and the others saluted Qinglian in unison, with envy in their eyes.
They had been in the Jindan Dzogchen realm for many years, and they knew very well how difficult and dangerous it was to take that step.
A few years ago, they heard that Liang Su of the Liang family had successfully condensed the Yuan Baby, but they didn't expect that Qinglian had also successfully condensed the Yuan Infant in the Liang Family, which was really enviable.
"Congratulations to Qinglian's predecessors for advancing to the Yuan Infant Stage, and also congratulations to Qiao Daoyou for further cultivation, but he is lonely and unheard of, and he forgot to prepare a gift that he can handle, and he will definitely make up for the two of them when he goes back. ”
Jiang Feng's thoughts flipped in his mind, a smile appeared on his face again, and he said with his fists clenched.
"Jiang Feng Daoyou is really too polite, he just broke through by luck. ”
Qiao Yuan replied politely, then turned his head to look ahead, only to see that dozens of miles away was filled with dense fog, and the strong formation fluctuations had already spread to the front, obviously there was still a period of time before the Forbidden Source Land opened.
The Jiang family is a great family of immortal cultivators who have been inherited for thousands of years, and they naturally know more about the forbidden source land than Qiao Yuan, an outsider.
At this moment, Jiang Feng saw Qiao Yuan turn his head to look, and he explained quite enthusiastically.
"Qiao Daoyou don't need to worry, the opening time of this forbidden source land is uncertain, but the best time to enter is when the dense fog completely dissipates, looking at this situation, there is at least more than half a month before the dense fog completely dissipates. ”
"I don't know if Jiang Feng Daoist has a map of the forbidden source?"
Qiao Yuan nodded, pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked.
He asked Jiang Feng this question, you must know that this kind of map of the ancient secret realm is a family for several generations, or even a dozen people in exchange for blood and life, not to mention outsiders, even if it is a person in the clan, few people can watch it.
Qiao Yuan naturally knew that it was a bit abrupt to ask for a map directly, but it was a matter of life, and he couldn't care about a lot, and having a map was naturally much safer than not having a map.
In addition, he already had a map within a radius of thousands of miles from the Ten Thousand Forbidden Peaks, and if he got another map, this trip would definitely be much safer.
Jiang Feng lowered his head and lowered his eyes, thinking to himself in his heart, Qiao Yuan has no door, no faction and no family, if he can make an oath and not leak the map, he can show him.
Thinking of this, he looked up at Qiao Yuan and said with an extremely solemn expression.
"Qiao Daoyou, it's not that I don't trust you, but the map is too important, if you can swear not to leak the map, you can give Qiao Daoyou a look. ”
"Big brother, this ...... That's not right. ”
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the other four people changed in unison, and Jiang Mu stepped forward to pull Jiang Feng and said in a low voice.
Jiang Feng knew that if he showed the map to outsiders, he was afraid that the Supreme Elder of the clan would be furious, but he was very optimistic about Qiao Yuan's potential, and thought that befriending him would definitely be of great benefit to the Jiang family in the future.
But now that Jiang Mu and others dissuaded him, he couldn't ignore other people's ideas and insist on going his own way.
However, at this time, Qiao Yuan opened his mouth, and the words he said greatly surprised the five people.
"It's really inappropriate, but you can exchange another map in the future, or you can swear that you will never leak the map to anyone, I don't know if Jiang Feng Daoyou is willing?"
"Qiao Daoyou has a map of the forbidden source?"
Jiang Feng's face showed surprise, and there was even a hint of disbelief in his eyes, obviously he didn't think that a person with no sect, no sect, and no family would have a map of the Forbidden Source Land.
"I got it by accident, I don't believe it, Jiang Feng Daoyou will know it at a glance. ”
Qiao Yuan showed a faint smile on his face, raised his hand and took out a jade slip, rubbed the map of the Ten Thousand Forbidden Peaks with a radius of thousands of miles, and handed it to Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng took the jade slip suspiciously, his consciousness swept away, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.
There was no overlap between that map and the map of his Jiang family, but Jiang Feng had heard of many of the locations marked on it, especially the Ten Thousand Forbidden Peaks in the center of the map was one of the most dangerous areas in the Forbidden Source Land.
He believed that with Qiao Yuan's character, he should not deceive them with a fake map, but Jiang Feng still handed the map to Jiang Mu to see what they thought.
After a while, Jiang Feng and the five of them discussed, and finally decided that they could exchange maps, and Qiao Yuan also made an oath to promise that he would never leak the map of the Jiang family.
"Qiao Daoyou, this is the map accumulated by all the ancestors of my Jiang family's thousands of years of entering the Forbidden Source Land five times, recording the range of 1,700 miles from entering the Forbidden Source Land to the interior, the map may have some slight errors, but most of the places are extremely accurate. ”
Jiang Feng turned over his hand and took out a white jade slip and handed it to Qiao Yuan, and said with a rather solemn expression.
"Thank you, Daoist Jiang Feng. ”
Qiao Yuan hugged his fists and thanked him, and after speaking, he leaned out his divine sense and took a closer look.
Although Qiao Yuan had never entered the Forbidden Source Land, he had heard of some of the more famous places in it, and at this moment, he saw the signs of those famous places on the map, and judged in his heart that this map should be true.
