Saizhou.
Liuzhou Hall.
Qin Sang twisted the jade cup in her hand and looked out the window at the river flowing eastward, thinking.
At this time, the door was gently pushed open, and the steward walked in and returned the token to Qin Sang, "It has been found out that Taoist friend left the token in Fudu County, Zhuozhou seven years ago. More detailed information
, it will take some time, contact the Zhuozhou branch and wait for them to send back the message."
Zhuozhou.
One of the four states in the Northland.
The four northern states are roughly distributed in a diamond shape.
Zezhou is in the northwest, adjacent to Saizhou, and of course it borders Beihuang. When Qin Sang and Zhou Jin walked out of Beihuang, they first arrived in Zezhou.
However, among the nineteen prefectures in Misty Rain, the northernmost one is actually Zhaoyao Prefecture. Its name comes from the famous mountain Zhaoyao Mountain, which stretches across most of the four northern prefectures and is also one of the iconic boundaries between the Central Plains and the Northern Wilderness.
Jinyu Prefecture, located in the eastern part of the Four Prefectures, is a large coastal state with prosperous trade all year round. It is the most prosperous of the four prefectures in the North and is also known as the Little Jiangzuo in the North.
Jinyu Prefecture is home to the Jinyu Sect, which is famous for its wealth in the Central Plains. The names of the sect and Yizhou are the same, which makes people think a lot, but the origin is now unknown.
Zhuozhou is the southernmost of the four northern states, and the closest to the six Jiangzuo states. Although it is not as good as the six Jiangzuo states, it is one of the 19 states in the Misty Rain, and is still stronger than the Western Desert and Beihuang.
No matter how prosperous a place is, there will inevitably be places of weakness and poverty.
Fudu County is one of them.
However, there happens to be a high-quality dojo mentioned by Xiaoxiangzi here, and Qin Sang had previously ordered Zhou Jin to focus on exploring this place.
Seven years ago, Zhou Jin entered Fudu County and did not move for seven years. Either there was an accident or he found some clues and is investigating.
Qin Sang was thoughtful, stood up and said thanks. Just as he was about to walk out of the quiet room, he paused slightly and turned around and asked, "Has anything major happened in the Central Plains recently?"
The steward replied with a smile: "The world is at peace and the seas and rivers are clear."
"Peace is so rare..."
Qin Sang nodded lightly and walked out of Liuzhou Hall.
…
The Tiantuo River starts from the Xuelian Mountains, flows through Saizhou, and connects to Daze, Zezhou.
In Zezhou, another big river branches off, flows to the south, then turns eastward, passing through six states on the left side of the Yangtze River, and finally merges into the East China Sea.
Some people regard these two sections as two parts of the same river, but with the changes in the world, they have different names. The upper section is still called Tiantuo River, and the lower section is called Fujiang River.
The six states of Jiangzuo are on both sides of Fujiang River.
"Your Majesty, the county town has arrived."
The waiter's voice came from outside the cabin.
Among the four states in the North, traveling by water is naturally the most convenient way. Although it is not as fast as Qin Sang's escape technique, it is better because it saves effort and does not attract attention.
We took a boat, passed through Zezhou, took a tributary of the Fujiang River, and successfully arrived at Fudu County, Zhuozhou.
Qin Sang woke up and looked at the incarnation sitting cross-legged facing him.
The incarnation outside the body has its palms folded and placed flat on the knees, with the palms reaching to the sky. The four-riding snake seal is suspended above the palms, emitting a faint cold light.
The light and fluctuations of the spiritual treasure were isolated in the small cabin by the spiritual array set up by Qin Sang.
Along the way, Qin Sang assisted the incarnation in practicing the "Tongbao Jue" and refining the spiritual treasure.
Since setting off from Beihai, the avatar outside the body has been trying to practice the "Ice Soul Divine Light". Unfortunately, the progress is not satisfactory. Qin Sang simply asked the avatar to stop practicing magical powers and focus on refining spiritual treasures to master a powerful weapon as soon as possible.
means.
Get up and open the window.
Qin Sang stood in front of the window with his hands behind his hands, unable to see the Western Desert.
The light of the setting sun enters the cabin and falls on the face.
Just like that day, the sky was filled with golden clouds.
Since Liuli left, every time he saw such a scene, Qin Sang would think of that beautiful figure disappearing in the sunset.
He can understand Liuli because he would have made the same choice in his place.
Therefore, he will not dissuade.
We can only give our blessings silently and be determined to find our own way, and we will always see you again in the future.
When refining Buddha bone relics, Qin Sang persisted for a long time and gained the greatest benefits.
He had a hunch that it would be much easier to break through the bottleneck in the future, and with the dual talents of Killing Talisman and Body Washing Pool, the later stage of Nascent Soul was just around the corner.
The only thing to do next is to find a stable dojo and practice hard until you break through!
As for the incarnation, the two mirage beads have been refined and are simply used to improve cultivation. It is estimated that they will face the bottleneck in the later stage earlier than the main body, but it is not so easy to break through.
Qin Sang doesn't expect to have an incarnation of the same realm while breaking through to the later stages.
He already had a plan.
From then on, the main body stayed in the cave to practice hard, focusing on the great road. When the incarnation's "Tongbao Jue" was completed, the incarnation went out to travel and search for various clues in Zhongzhou.
For this reason, Qin Sang has been thinking about how to strengthen the main body's control over the incarnation to prevent the avatar from giving birth to evil thoughts and backfire on itself.
The incarnation and the main body are too far apart. If something unexpected happens, it will not be able to counterattack in time. In serious cases, it may even be controlled by a powerful enemy, resulting in catastrophe.
Of course, the incarnation holding the spiritual treasure is not so easy to be captured, unless it provokes a monk in the transformation stage, and Qin Sang's purpose is just to investigate the news, and he will not easily become an enemy.
During the boat trip, Qin Sang was basically busy with this matter. He studied the various skills and secrets he had obtained in the Xuantian Palace, and they have been effective. The external incarnation only needs to return to the cave at intervals, and the second Nascent Soul returns to the main body.
It's enough to bring your mind back into harmony.
After all, there is quite a lot that needs to be done.
Through the channels of Liuzhou Hall, he did not find any news about the ghost mother's presence. Qin Sang retreated and asked if there were any Wu monks in Zhongzhou.
If the Ghost Mother arrives safely in Zhongzhou, she will definitely be looking for the Wu Clan as well.
As expected, Liuzhoutang has great supernatural powers. He found several ancient books and found some records about the Wu clan. Unfortunately, they were all specious ancient legends.
At least there is no Wu clan on the mainland.
As for overseas, Liuzhoutang is beyond its reach.
The boat docks.
The ship's hull vibrated.
Putting away the avatar, Qin Sang stepped off the boat.
In the distance, the green mountains are like green, and the pier is crowded with people, including traders, boatmen, and merchants.
Qin Sang squeezed into the crowd. It seemed crowded, but in fact, he kept a certain distance from the people around him, and ordinary people could not notice the slightest strangeness.
After entering the city, passing by the government office, Qin Sang sensed the aura of a cultivator in the government office.
This is the biggest difference between Zhongzhou and other places. The walls and counties in Zhongzhou can not only serve as cities and towns where immortal cultivators gather, but also play the role of governing and educating the people. Moreover, the immortal cultivators serve as the chief ministers of the government.
They do not allow mortals to establish dynasties and do their own thing.
Qin Sang did not know whether the immortal cultivators in Zhongzhou really valued mortals.
But he knew that with these Immortal Cultivators and Palace Masters sitting on all sides, casual cultivators and small sects would be greatly restricted and they would no longer dare to act recklessly. Every move must be within the rules and proceed with caution.
Even in a remote place like Fudu County, there is actually a Foundation Establishment Master. Not surprisingly, this person should come from the largest sect in Zhuozhou, Bu Nian Mountain.
Qin Sang did not visit the Fu Zun, but quietly entered the Fangshi area and found a small courtyard. Fudu County was too remote to enter the Liuzhou Hall Dharma Eyes, so he only set up a stronghold in the county for communication purposes, but the small courtyard
Elegant and elegant, located in the core area of Fang City, it shows that it is rich and wealthy.
I met the steward of Liuzhou Hall in the courtyard.
Qin Sang took out the token and explained his intention.
The steward gave a salute and immediately went back to the inner hall to take out the other half of the token. After confirming that it was genuine, he cupped his hands and said, "The friend of the Taoist friend did not leave any other message, but he will come to our office every other year."
, it has been like this all year round for seven years. After all, there are less than two months until the next time. If the senior does not think the small courtyard is rough, he can choose a private room..."
It seems that nothing happened to Zhou Jin, but he was tied up by something.
The truth will be revealed when you meet him.
Qin Sang nodded and threw a bag of spiritual stones to the steward, "I happen to have something to ask you."
The steward tipped the spirit stone and said with a smile on his face, "Senior, please tell me. I will definitely tell you everything I know."
Qin Sang was about to speak when his expression suddenly changed slightly and he let out a light sigh.
Then, after confessing his crime to the steward, Qin Sang stood up, hurriedly walked out of the small courtyard, and appeared outside the county town in a few flashes.
When the steward chased him out, Qin Sang was nowhere to be seen on the street.
The steward didn't know what was going on, so he shook his head and said, "Weird!"
After leaving the county town, Qin Sang looked left and right, focused on a direction, and hurried away. After a while, he entered the deep mountains and old forests, and the crowds gradually became sparse.
At the same time, he reached into the spirit beast bag, and when he pulled it out, there was a fat insect in his palm.
After swallowing the amber insect crystal, the fat silkworm became fatter than before.
For these years, the fat silkworm had been sleeping in Mute Gu's body. When it finally woke up, it kept rolling in Qin Sang's palm and whining, as if it was suffering great pain.
Circles of colorful halos spread out from the fat silkworm's body, extremely unstable.
This kind of breath...
It seems like a transformation!
The Fat Silkworm consumed its original power and fell into weakness after making a deal with the Fulphin Firefly King. Qin Sang originally thought that the Fat Silkworm needed to rest for a while before it could recover.
Refining insect crystals will definitely take time. Even if it takes hundreds of years, it is not surprising. I didn't expect a breakthrough so soon.
What's even stranger is that Qin Sang feels that this guy seems to be going to cause a catastrophe and directly overcome it!
"Why is there no cocooning process?"
Qin Sang recalled the fat silkworm's previous two transformation processes. Each time, it had to turn into a cocoon on its own and sleep for at least several years before it could complete its transformation.
This time something unexpected happened.
"Could it be that the poisonous elixir that swallowed the frog fish before, Fat Silkworm is already on the verge of breaking through, and is just one step away? When traveling through the storm zone, it fell asleep in the body of the dumb aunt, which is actually equivalent to turning into a cocoon?"
Qin Sang thought to himself, it seemed that this was the only explanation.
In the Palace of Seven Kills, after Fei Can and Ya Gu merged, unknown changes took place on both sides.
'Zhizhi...'
The cry of the fat silkworm brought Qin Sang out of her thoughts.
Qin Sang activated her consciousness and scanned the whole body of the fat silkworm. Seeing that the creature was still in good condition, she suspected that it had not completely absorbed the amber insect crystal before undergoing transformation.
It can be seen from this that amber insect crystal is indeed a rare treasure.
It's always a good thing to be able to transform. The Fire Jade Centipede is still stuffing the Fire Melting Pill into its belly, showing no signs of transformation.
However, Qin Sang was a little worried. Fat Silkworm was such a loser and could only ward off poison. Could it block the Thunder Tribulation? He was not Fat Silkworm's master, so he could only use the spiritual formation to help it weaken the Tribulation Thunder.
It was useless to think too much, so Qin Sang dispersed his consciousness and rushed to a desolate area inaccessible to avoid the unknown impact of the natural disaster.
At this moment, the fat silkworm showed new changes.
The colorful halo on its body stopped expanding and began to shrink, finally converging into a colorful bead of light. The fat silkworm forced its head up and couldn't wait to swallow it in its belly.
Immediately, a new colorful halo overflowed from the body.
It seems that it can't control its own power.
Immediately afterwards, Qin Sang discovered that the new colorful halo was much more solid than before, and soon covered the fat silkworm's body with a thick layer.
If the poison-proof armor before was just a thin film, now it is the real armor!
"Spiritual insects all have their own means of preserving life."
Qin Sang thought to himself.
After the poison-proof armor was formed, the aura of heavenly calamity on the fat silkworm became more intense, and calamity clouds began to gather in the sky.
Qin Sang raised his head and sensed the catastrophe.
Not surprisingly, the power of the Heavenly Tribulation is not very strong, much like that of the Tianmu Butterfly.
Seeing that the catastrophe was approaching, Qin Sang looked around and flew to the top of the mountain. When he lowered his head, he saw that the whole body of the fat silkworm had been wrapped in thick seven-colored light, forming an existence similar to a light cocoon.
Putting the fat silkworms on the ground, Qin Sang began to get busy. The Qianjun Ring kept flashing, and pieces of golden tokens the size of a palm flew out from it.
Before leaving, he made some preparations to prepare for Fat Silk's sudden calamity.
In the blink of an eye, dozens of golden tokens formed a large formation and merged into the void.
'Boom!'
The calamity clouds are rolling, and the thunderbolts are shaking the sky.
In the mountains and forests, the birds and animals were frightened.
Qin Sang quickly completed the last seal and retreated. As soon as he landed on the mountain in the distance, his eyes lit up and a silver lightning fell from the sky.
The sun was eclipsed.
‘Crack!’
The calamity thunder is impartial and hits the fat silkworm.
When passing through the Golden Order Formation, golden wires were woven into a net, but because of the special nature of the tribulation and the power of heaven, even the most mysterious formation could not completely shield it.
The calamity thunder penetrated the formation and struck the fat silkworm with its residual power!
'boom!'
Landslides and landslides.
The hilltop where Fat Silkworm was located was directly leveled, and huge rocks rolled down the cliff.
After a calamity thunder, the calamity cloud slowly dissipated.
Qin Sang quickly flew over, and with a sweep of his consciousness, he found a fat silkworm in a crack in the stone. He ducked over, took it into his hand, and inspected it briefly, showing a look of surprise.
After experiencing the thunderstorm, the light cocoon on the fat silkworm seemed not to have been damaged. I don't know if it was too strong or the recovery speed was too fast.
‘Click!’
The light cocoon cracked, and the fat silkworm poked its head out. There was no external injury on its body, but it looked a little tired.
With a suck in his mouth, he swallowed the colorful halo into his belly. The fat silkworm rubbed Qin Sang's fingers, swayed its fat body, and went back to continue sleeping.
How could Qin Sang let it go so easily? He moved quickly, wiping away as many traces as possible, and escaped. Then he held the fat silkworm in his fingers, carried it in front of him, and ordered the fat silkworm to show off his new magical powers.
He and Fat Silkworm have been getting along for a long time, and although they are not yet connected to each other, they can still make Fatty Silkworm understand simple commands.
The fat silkworm shook its head, opened its mouth and spit out the familiar colorful halo, turning into poison-proof armor and covering Qin Sang.
Apart from being a little thicker than before and giving the impression of greater protection, there seems to be no other change.
Two big eyes stared at each other.
Qin Sang's face was expressionless.
Fat Silkworm looked innocent.
