Song Zhong was relatively relieved that Ling Xiaozi was living in seclusion in his natal space. One is because he is his master's friend and trustworthy, and the other is that Song Zhong is not afraid of him at all. As long as the big bronze bell and the cold ice demon boat are there, Song Zhong is not worried about the rebellion of an immortal who has lost all his immortal weapons. That's why he felt free to let Ling Xiaozi move in.
After returning to the Cold Ice Demon Boat again, after driving for a while, they met Shui Wuhen and others who were chasing after them.
Song Zhong hurriedly picked up these embarrassed guys on the flying boat. Without Song Zhong's guidance and without the immortal's means, they suffered a lot in the sea of chaotic peaks. Fortunately, Xing Jun also has some deduction ability and can guide them in a safe direction. Otherwise, these people will probably die here.
Even so, they were extremely embarrassed by the space storms that broke out from time to time. After boarding Song Zhong's Cold Ice Demon Boat, everyone was so tired that they were breathing heavily.
While they were catching their breath, Song Zhong told them in general what had happened. When they heard that the mission had failed and that the lives of three Sanxian were involved, everyone looked sad.
Song Zhong was too lazy to talk nonsense. After saying this, he arranged for them to rest, while he piloted the cold ice evil divine boat and began to return.
…
The journey back was smooth sailing. When Song Zhong's cold ice beast once again appeared in front of the top flying boats of the four major sects, everyone felt as if they were in another world.
What happened in the Luanfeng Sea has already been transmitted back here. Although the war was lost, Song Zhong, a mercenary, fulfilled his duty to stop it, but it was only in the end that the nine monsters disrupted the situation and everything was messed up. So Song Zhong couldn't be blamed for this matter at all, so the four major sects were extremely tolerant and no one mentioned this matter again. But they all unanimously targeted the massive amount of materials Song Zhong brought back.
Due to their enthusiasm, Song Zhong could only hold an impromptu trade fair and sold most of the materials collected on the way back to them. Hundreds of spiritual treasures were harvested, and nearly 10,000 other spiritual herbs that were more than 10,000 years old were harvested. Then everyone left happily.
Since Song Zhong had one last transaction, which was to trade the Ice and Fire Lotus with Xuanji Taoist Sect, he finally decided to follow Xuanji Taoist Sect. However, for the sake of safety, he did not take the Hanlin Bingsha Shenzhou with him, but asked Han Bing'er to take it back to Bingling City. Song Zhong went alone.
The reason for this was mainly because he was afraid that Xuanji Daozong would jump over the wall in a hurry and detain Song Zhong regardless of his face. If that were the case, Han Bing'er would definitely bring the Cold Ice Demon Shenzhou to deal with the Xuanji Dao Sect severely. Presumably Xuanji Taoist Sect also knows how powerful it is, so he shouldn't be so eager for quick success.
Moreover, even if they dare to do this, Song Zhong is not afraid at all. After all, there is a real immortal living in his natal space, Caspian Sea! Even Ling Xiaozi, who had lost all his immortal weapons, was still stronger than a fifth-level loose immortal, so he was definitely not someone to be trifled with. At least there was no problem at all in rescuing Song Zhong.
With such double insurance, Song Zhong naturally had no fear and went to the headquarters of Xuanji Dao Sect, Xuanji Cave Sky alone.
…
Song Zhong sailed for several months in the Xuanji Divine Boat. On this day, we finally arrived at the destination of our trip, the headquarters of Xuanji Dao Sect, Xuanji Cave Heaven!
As soon as he entered this special spiritual world, Song Zhong immediately felt an extremely rich spiritual energy rushing towards his face, but in terms of concentration, it was no worse than Song Zhong's natal space. They are all so rich that they can almost condense into liquid, which shows how powerful they are.
Song Zhong had never thought that there could be such a concentration of spiritual energy in the outside world. He was immediately surprised. Then, he quickly observed the famous Xuanji Cave carefully.
Song Zhong took a cursory look and immediately discovered that this place was indeed the famous Cave Paradise, and it definitely looked like an immortal. The mountain is not very high, but it is full of spiritual energy, like fairy clouds. The trees and flowers on the mountain are all spiritual grass and spiritual trees, all of which are more than a thousand years old. From time to time, you can even see giant spiritual trees that are more than 100,000 years old.
There are many small streams on the mountain, each one with crystal clear water flowing down happily, converging into a large lake. The fish and birds in the lake are all spiritual creatures.
From time to time there are female cultivators wearing fairy flowers on their heads, riding flying swords and chasing birds to play. The flowers are gorgeous, the people are charming, and the birds are beautiful. It is really like being in a painting.
However, if you think this is just a paradise on earth, you are totally wrong.
Song Zhong used his Chaos Eye to scan secretly, and soon discovered that there were several powerful formations hidden here, and there were also a large number of masters stationed here. The Nascent Soul cultivator here is the bottom apprentice, the Distraction cultivator can do odd jobs, the Void Refining cultivator can only look after the door, and those above are the senior ones with status.
Seeing that the Xuanji Dao Sect had such strength, Song Zhong couldn't help but be secretly surprised. Although he only looked at a small area, he discovered the presence of hundreds of monks above Nascent Soul, as well as several great monks of Void Refining. If this includes the entire Xuanji Cave, there are not sure how many masters there are!
After entering the Xuanji Cave, Song Zhong was kicked off the Xuanji Divine Boat and flew under the guidance of a distracted female monk. The woman who led the way for Song Zhong seemed to have received instructions from above and enthusiastically introduced the situation here to Song Zhong. Although she seemed to be frank, in fact, she was talking about things that everyone knew and secret things. Not exposed at all. And the most disgusting thing is that there is obviously a sense of arrogance in her tone.
Although this made Song Zhong very uncomfortable, Song Zhong still had to admit that the other party did have the capital to be proud of.
Take the Xuanji Cave for example. It took hundreds of thousands of years to gather the eighteen surrounding dragon veins here. 12 of them are super dragon veins with tens of millions of miles, and the others are also large dragon veins with millions of miles. Compared with the first branch of Xuanyin Sect, the dragon vein resources here are nearly twice as strong.
The aura of so many dragon veins is all gathered within a radius of thousands of miles. How can this aura not be thick? The efficiency of practicing in a place like this is naturally ridiculously high, so it’s no wonder that there are so few masters among them!
Song Zhong was thinking as he flew, and soon he came to a pavilion under the guidance of the other party. The female cultivator who led the way gave Song Zhong a cup of fragrant tea, and then said with a smile: "Junior Brother Song, you also know that the twin lotuses of ice and fire are of great importance. Although the three elders and the sect leader have agreed to this matter, I still need to ask other elders what they want, so I can only ask you to wait a moment, and I hope you will forgive me!"
"Haha, it doesn't matter, I can wait, nothing will happen anyway!" Song Zhong said with a smile.
The female cultivator was very satisfied and then began to talk to Song Zhong. Song Zhong originally thought that such a big matter would have to be delayed for some time, and it would not be surprising to even wait for several months. So he was prepared to wait for a long time.
However, to Song Zhong's surprise, only a few quarters of an hour later, Fairy Lily, the leader of the Xuanji Dao Sect, stopped.
There was always frost on her face, and she was obviously very unhappy. Song Zhong thought things had changed, but unexpectedly, after Fairy Lily dismissed the surrounding disciples, she said happily: "Song Zhong, we can trade. These are the twin lotuses of ice and fire. You should take a good look first!"
As she spoke, Fairy Lily shook her hand, and two giant lotuses more than three feet high appeared out of thin air in the hall. They were as big as a tabletop, one blue and one red. The blue one exuded a deep chill, and a blue chill. Flames burn among the petals. The red one had a faint heat, and a red flame enveloped it.
This weird appearance is amazing enough in itself, but the most amazing thing is that these two lotus flowers with completely opposite attributes actually grow on the same rhizome. Under the rhizome is a snow-white lotus root several feet long. In a pool of five elements essence water. The pool is carved from the finest sapphire, with extremely exquisite patterns on it. It is obviously a rare treasure.
As soon as the twin lotuses of ice and fire appeared, the surrounding air suddenly became much fresher, and a light fragrance instantly filled the entire living room.
As soon as Song Zhong smelled the fragrance, he immediately felt ecstatic, as if all the bones in his body were lighter. He immediately remembered what Ling Xiaozi told him about the twin lotuses of ice and fire. Comparing the two lotuses, he quickly came to the conclusion that the twin lotuses of ice and fire were actually genuine. And judging from its size, it is still a super best one that has lived for nearly a million years. Even in the fairy world, it is difficult to have a double lotus of ice and fire of this age.
It is said that this ice and fire double lotus was very old when it entered the Xuanji Taoist Sect. In addition, it has been in the Xuanji Taoist Sect for hundreds of thousands of years, so it is normal for it to have such a high age.
Seeing such a treasure placed in front of him, and that he was about to possess it, Song Zhong was extremely happy. He stared at it with his eyes fixed on it and almost drooled from his mouth.
But Fairy Lily, the leader of the Xuanji Dao Sect, had a look of heartache on her face. Obviously she was extremely reluctant to sell this fire and ice lotus.
At this time, an accident happened again. The ice and fire double lotus seemed to feel something. Suddenly it kept shaking towards the Lily Fairy. A different kind of fluctuation came faintly, expressing a very clear Chu Chu's pitiful emotion, 'Why do you want to sell us? We are willing to work harder to create immortality. Please, don’t sell us, okay? I beg you! '
