Chapter 142: Convergence (Subscription, Collection)
Although Sun Mingsheng was cautious by nature, it didn't mean he was timid. His heart of Taoism was indestructible. Once he encountered an opportunity, he never showed any fear. He went to the mountain of tigers even though he knew there were tigers. He seemed to have completely forgotten the threat of the seven-star spotted bee.
After an incense stick of time, a corpse whose body had swollen all over and turned black, and a stream of evil black venom with a fishy smell was constantly oozing out, and whose identity could no longer be seen appeared in front of him.
The whole corpse was covered with black wounds of all sizes caused by the sting of the seven-star spotted bee, which were so dense that it made people's scalps numb.
Only the storage bag on his waist was still intact, and a spiritual weapon that fell on the ground was also bleak and had lost its due effect.
"Since you are dead, these spiritual objects cannot be used. Even if they are used as the cost of burial, it is your luck to meet me, and you are free from the suffering of sun and rain." A flash of light flashed, and the storage bag was taken out. The earth rolled and the corpse disappeared.
If you want to solve the secret, the storage bag is the only clue left. Because it has lost its owner, it only takes a burst of magic power, and the storage bag will spray out a stream of light, and more than ten kinds of spiritual objects will appear on the earth.
Among them are three jade bottles, a waist card, four jade slips, and two jade boxes sealed with talismans. When the waist card appeared, he had already made a judgment on the other party's identity.
Every cultivation family has its own identity waist card and symbol. The Zhao family in Pingyang County uses lotus as the family symbol. There is a lotus engraved on the back of the waist card, and the three characters Zhao Mingzhan on the front.
"Zhao Mingzhan is the most powerful cultivator in the Zhao family. I don't know why he fell here? If the family can make a profit from it, it will soon come up with a plan.
In the cultivation world, strength is king. The development of a family is like sailing against the current. If you don't move forward, you will fall behind. You must seize every opportunity. The great loss of the Zhao family's strength is naturally a feast that cannot be missed.
All these thoughts kept rising in my mind, but when I saw the contents of one of the jade slips clearly, all the calculations were thrown out of my mind.
"Secret place, Zhao Mingzhan and Zhao Xiangyang actually came for the secret place? Why would a mere foundation-building family have a secret place?" Sun Mingsheng's face was full of disbelief.
There are two types of secret places. One is that a great supernatural power forcibly refines a piece of space as a secret place; the other is that it is naturally nurtured; in addition, secret places can be divided into different levels according to size and the degree of spiritual power.
It's just that the news about these secret places has always been exclusive to the major sects. Although the Sun family has been passed down for nearly a thousand years, its foundation is shallow and there are no relevant jade slips. All the knowledge sources about secret places are some common sense that is widely circulated.
However, Sun Mingsheng knew clearly about the preciousness of the secret land. If he could open a gap and obtain a batch of precious spiritual medicines, both the family and individuals could share sufficient benefits.
"Zhao Mingzhan and Zhao Xiangyang have not opened the entrance to the secret land with their combined strength. I am naturally unable to do it alone. Once I take action, I will certainly attract a large number of seven-star spotted bees to attack. It is better to make plans after reuniting with the two elders." Sun Mingsheng is a decisive person.
Opening the entrance to the secret land with one's own strength can certainly take all the spiritual objects in it. It can be expected that these spiritual objects will also become nutrients for the rapid improvement of his cultivation. Perhaps in the next few decades, his cultivation can be quickly improved to the middle stage of foundation building.
But Sun Mingsheng never did so. On the one hand, he was unable to do it. On the other hand, he grew up in the family and was naturally willing to share with the family.
The only question in front of us is where to find the two family elders. Since the last battle with the Red Snake, there has been no relevant information, and we don’t even know whether Sun Changfeng and Sun Shengyuan have reunited.
However, as time goes by, the fight between the monsters and the cultivators has entered a relatively stable stage after a climax, and each side has suffered considerable damage.
After four Jindan cultivators from the Beast Control Sect teamed up to fight against the third-level monster, both sides have returned to the state before the war and can freely enter and exit the Beast Control Mountains.
After years of fighting, the cultivators also established three or five relatively stable strongholds in the Beast Control Mountains.
The main force comes from a large number of independent cultivators. Each relatively stable stronghold is mainly composed of three or five foundation-building cultivators, supplemented by at least a hundred and at most hundreds of Qi Refining cultivators, who successfully hold on under rounds of monster counterattacks.
For these independent cultivators who established strongholds, both the Beast Control Sect and other families support them.
On the one hand, the establishment of a stronghold can provide better services for the monks who hunt monsters in the Beast Control Mountains. On the other hand, it can also serve as an early warning in the event of an accident.
If it can successfully gain a foothold, it may not be impossible to become a new family or sect after hundreds of years of development.
"If the two family elders are still staying in the Beast Control Mountains, they are most likely staying in these strongholds. If they have left, they are returning to the Beast Control City." Sun Mingsheng already had a rough judgment in his mind.
He must reunite with the two family elders in the shortest possible time. As long as the queen bee of the Seven-star Spotted Bee is not damaged, it has a strong recovery ability.
The previous losses can be restored to the peak state in a few months or a year. If the delay is too long, the strength of the Seven-star Spotted Bee will increase accordingly.
Sun Mingsheng wiped out all the bee corpses and traces of the battle around him, and restored him to a normal state, ensuring that he would not attract the attention of others before leaving.
This time the goal is quite clear, and he went straight to the strongholds in different locations to find the traces of the two family elders one by one.
These strongholds are basically based on sacred mountains, and with the increase in the number of monks entering and leaving the Beast Control Mountains, each place seems quite lively.
A large number of shops have already started business, selling some spiritual objects with obvious consumption, such as talismans, spiritual tools, and spiritual pills, and purchasing various spiritual objects produced in the Beast Taming Mountains. In most cases, they exchange goods for goods.
Sun Mingsheng's only purpose is to find the traces of the two family elders, so naturally he will not pay too much attention to this.
It was not until the third stronghold located on the periphery that he found Sun Shengyuan's trace at a small auction. Under his leadership, he joined Sun Changfeng, and only then did he have a general understanding of the losses of the family cultivators in this battle.
Except for the three foundation-building cultivators, the fifty cultivators in the middle and late stages of Qi training who were traveling with him were basically lost, and only three or five lucky ones survived.
