Chapter 78 Golden Elixir Relics
Chapter 78 Golden Elixir Relics
The Taiyuan Situ family is the most powerful foundation-building force under the Jindan sect "Shuihua Sword Sect", with as many as seven foundation-building powerhouses.
Among the five great families, it ranks first!
Coupled with the golden elixir foundation left by the ancestors of the Situ family, even the Shuihua Sword Sect dare not underestimate it.
Why did the cultivators from the Situ family appear here? Were they attracted by the noise of hunting the Thunder-Horned Python just now?
Li Quanqing became alert and his body tensed, and everyone else also looked alert.
The young man touched the storage bag, and four second-level talismans lay quietly inside, giving him an infinite sense of security.
Rumble!
The second-level spirit boat slowly stopped in front of him, causing a huge wave. The huge hull cast a huge shadow, covering the Yun family's ship.
A dozen cultivators stood at the bow and looked down at this group of second-generation cultivators. They were wearing Situ's head robe embroidered with the Taiyuan Black Turtle pattern. They were all cultivators in the late Qi Refining stage.
The two leaders even had the ninth level of Qi Refining.
No... one of the cultivators from the Situ family actually made Li Quanqing feel like he was facing the Third Elder directly.
He glanced at the monk wrapped in a black robe and quickly looked away. That feeling was indeed correct.
A cultivator who has reached the great perfection of Qi training!
After a cultivator breaks through the ninth level of Qi Refining, he will continue to practice until his skills can no longer be improved and his magic power can no longer be increased.
It can be called the great perfection of Qi refining.
If you take one more step forward, you will either waste time until death, or break through the foundation and live for four decades.
"Moo-"
With a low roar, a huge monster emerged from the bottom of the water, and sea water flowed down its shell like waterfalls.
This monster is as black as ink all over, with green pupils, scaly skin, a neck as long as a snake, and ancient patterns on its black jade-like shell.
Its huge body is like a small mountain, floating in the vast ocean, exuding a mysterious and majestic aura.
Taiyuan Black Turtle!
This is the Situ family's iconic guardian beast. It is rumored that there is even a foundation-building level black turtle that has been guarding the Taiyuan Islands for nearly a thousand years.
"Two Qi Refining Level 9 cultivators, and a Qi Refining Level 9 spirit turtle..."
Yun Yangzi exhaled a breath of foul air, showing his signature smile, and said in his heart: "Yun Yangzi, the direct descendant of Xiaoyao Island, greets all the fellow Taoists of the Situ family!"
……
"It turned out to be a group of juniors hunting the Thunderhorn Python. No wonder there was movement in the formation. It seems we made a mistake."
"Should we kill them all? The matter of the ruins is of great importance and no news can be leaked!"
"Not right. Except for the Yun family, the core disciples of the other three foundation-building families are here. Are you sure they don't have any trump cards? That will only expose them faster!"
"That makes sense. Let's trick them first and tell them we are here to hunt monsters. We can keep our real goal secret from them!"
The two Qi Refining Ninth Level cultivators from the Situ family communicated in secret and discussed the result without any sound leaking out.
Li Quanqing's heart skipped a beat. With his powerful soul, he could keenly sense a flash of murderous intent from one of them!
Fortunately, the worst outcome did not happen.
"So it's you fellow Taoists. I'm Situ Deng from Taiyuan Island. I came to the Purple Blood Sea to hunt Canghai Whales. I accidentally stepped into this place. I'm sorry for the offense!"
A certain Qi Refining Level 9 cultivator smiled brightly, explained a few words, and the murderous intent on his body disappeared without a trace.
The Canghai Whale is a famous monster in the East China Sea. It automatically advances to the great perfection of Qi Refining when it reaches adulthood. It is powerful but rare.
It is rumored that every Sea Whale King has the strength of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
"I see. It was just a false alarm..."
Yun Yangzi responded with a bow, and after the two sides exchanged a few polite words, they parted ways.
"Moo!!"
The Taiyuan Black Turtle spit out a stream of water, glanced at everyone, and also chose to follow the second-level spirit boat and leave, diving back into the seabed.
Only when the monks from the Situ family disappeared from his sight did Li Quanqing breathe a sigh of relief and remove his hand from the storage bag.
He was hesitating whether to tell everyone about the murderous aura he had just sensed.
Yun Yangzi, who was originally smiling, suddenly looked gloomy and said with gritted teeth: "They wanted to attack us just now, intending to kill us!"
As soon as the words were spoken, everyone was shocked.
"That's impossible. We don't have any grudge against them." Wang Gujian widened his eyes, looking unconvinced and filled with fear.
"Humph! Three Qi Refining Level Nine people, plus a Level Two Spiritual Boat, using such a large array, I don't believe they are just hunting a Canghai Whale!"
Yun Yangzi snorted and took out a blood-red jade pendant from his arms. The jade pendant was slowly fading and turning into the shape of mutton-fat white jade again.
"This is a warning jade pendant that can sense the cultivator's killing intent. Just now, this group of cultivators from the Situ family were really ready to take action!"
Xie Hongyu also looked solemn as she recognized the function of this jade pendant.
"I remember that the remains of the cave of the ancient foundation-building cultivator a few years ago were finally completely occupied by the Situ family, right?"
Li Quange suddenly spoke up. As a demon hunter, he was well-informed: "The cave ruins are in the Purple Blood Sea. Could the Situ family have obtained a treasure map?"
Yun Yangzi's eyes flickered. "I heard that the cave ruins had arrays within arrays and tombs within tombs. When they were first excavated, there were even rumors of a golden elixir inheritance?"
"Well, I have personally experienced this matter and know some of the truth."
The old tree coughed. He had also entered the cave ruins several years ago. "The first ancient tomb was actually just a grave keeper. He failed in his attempt to build a foundation and died in meditation."
"The tomb he guarded was indeed that of a foundation-building cultivator. The biography on the tombstone indicated that the tomb owner was suspected to be a disciple of a Jindan sect. Unfortunately, the sect was destroyed, and even the tombstone was nowhere to be found."
Those present were indeed top-notch second-generation cultivators, each of them was very smart and they pieced together some of the truth in just a few words.
The Golden Elixir Relics!
Everyone's breathing gradually became heavier, their eyes turned red, and were filled with greed.
Neither Yun Yangzi nor Wang Gujian are the foundation-building seeds in the family, and there are people suppressing them.
There is a high probability that one will stop at the Great Perfection Stage of Qi Refining in this life, and the chance of building a foundation is slim.
They want to build a foundation, want to fight for their own longevity, there is only one word -
fight!
Practicing Buddhism is difficult, you have to fight against heaven for life and compete with others for wealth!
Fight, fight, fight!
Among all the people present, the only one who can still remain rational is probably Li Quanqing.
He was not interested in any golden elixir ruins or foundation-building opportunities.
He cultivated the virtue of water. The highest good is like water. Water benefits all things without contention.
With the golden finger at hand, ascending to become an immortal is no longer a dream. Why put yourself in danger for an uncertain relic?
All Li Quanqing is thinking about now is to inform his family about this matter and then get away from this vortex as soon as possible.
"What do we do now, follow them quietly?"
Wang Gujian asked, eager to try, without any trace of fear from before.
"The ship is too big to be targeted. I will be more confident if I follow it alone."
Yun Yangzi took out a white spiritual boat that was as light as jade and as ethereal as clouds. "This is a top-grade magical instrument, the Hidden Cloud Boat. It can fly in the sky to hide its body. Even if a foundation-building cultivator is careless, it will be difficult to find it."
Xie Hongyu also took out a pair of jade bells: "This is a thousand-mile sound transmission bell, which also has the function of positioning. Fellow Daoist Yun, take it well, and remember not to expose yourself and protect your life."
"Thank you all, fellow Taoists. Wait for my news!"
Yun Yangzi got into the cloud boat, and streams of white mist gushed out, transforming into a ball of white cloud floating in the sky, disappearing without a trace, and chasing after the cultivators of the Situ family.
This behavior is indeed very dangerous, but if successful, the rewards will definitely be huge!
For a moment, everyone's attention was attracted by the golden elixir ruins. Even the newly obtained snake cubs were no longer attractive and they were restless.
Unfortunately, even when night fell and the sky was filled with stars, the sound transmission bell was still not rung.
Li Quanqing found an excuse and returned to the island under the cover of night, and used the kaleidoscope to inform the third elder of what had happened there.
It won’t be too late to tell the family once the matter of the ruins is confirmed.
What's more, Li Quanqing does have some selfish motives of his own.
If the Third Elder could get the opportunity to successfully build his foundation, it would definitely be of great benefit to him.
Li Kunli replied very quickly, asking him to stay where he was and not move, as he would be there soon.
Not long after Li Quanqing returned to the boat, the Thousand Mile Voice Transmission Bell was rung, and Yun Yangzi's excited and suppressed voice was heard.
"The ruins are real, come quickly!"
