Inquiry about immortality

Chapter 2324 Gonggong Platform

"It is impossible for you to rely solely on spiritual medicine to cultivate spiritual insects. The effect will only get worse and worse. In the end, you will just waste a lot of spiritual medicine and only get a slight improvement. Moreover, the mixed medicinal power accumulates in the body and is difficult to remove, which will also hinder the potential of the spiritual insects..."

Yu Ling felt very strange, "You are so powerful, why don't you try your luck in the insect tomb?"

Qin Sang certainly understood what Yu Ling said, but he had no better solution.

Over the years, Qin Sang has come into contact with many witch clans and learned about the heritage of each clan. He discovered that most of these clans' insect-controlling techniques were developed based on their own bloodline talents, and that the bloodline talents left a distinct mark in their heritage.

Even if they are all members of the same Wu clan, they have different clans and bloodline talents. Even if they obtain the secret techniques, they can only use them as references and make changes based on their own bloodlines. They cannot completely replicate them.

From this we can see the value of the "Panhu Sutra". This sutra may not be the most mysterious sutra of the witch clan, but it is the most suitable for Qin Sang, an "outsider", to practice.

The secret techniques of the scriptures are difficult to practice, so Qin Sang can only work hard on external medicine.

All the major clans delved into the art of controlling insects and cultivated magical herbs, thus developing unique methods of using medicine.

The same elixir, supplemented by unique secret techniques, can have unexpected effects.

What Qin Sang extorted was not only the elixir, but also the corresponding method. However, even so, he could not avoid the disadvantages mentioned by Yu Ling.

The Tianmu Butterfly's roots are very solid and it can withstand it for now, but Qin Sang doesn't dare to take it lightly.

"Thank you for the reminder. I know what I am doing." Qin Sang glanced at the phantom of She Chen, thoughtfully.

Not knowing where the "insect tomb" was, She Chen had no time to negotiate with the Tianyu clan witch and could not wait to interrupt Yu Ling, fearing that he would believe the "slander".

Judging from the tone of their voices, the Insect Tomb seemed to be a very dangerous place full of opportunities, but it was not a good idea to ask She Chen in front of outsiders, so as not to show weakness and arouse suspicion.

"Humph!"

Yu Ling wrinkled her nose and said in dissatisfaction, "Why are you like Grandpa Qi and the others, calling me old man left and right? You don't look old!"

Qin Sang burst out laughing. It was too easy for cultivators to achieve immortality. When they reached that level, their life span was endless and there was no distinction between the old and the young.

His face looks young, but his heart is old!

Just like the two people of Tianyu clan, they can easily change their appearance and become handsome men and beautiful women, but they are no longer obsessed with their appearance. Of course, if you already look young, there is no need to deliberately pretend to be old.

"Elder Qin..."

She Chen handed the square jade to Qin Sang. A middle-aged man with white clothes and white hair was reflected in the square jade. He had an extraordinary demeanor. It was Yu Gong, the shaman of the Tianyu clan.

"There are indeed many heroes in the world. Elder Qin's coming out this time will surely shock the world! It's a pity that I can't get away, otherwise I will definitely go there in person. I look forward to meeting Elder Qin in the Taihao Clan..."

In this battle, the Tianyu clan suffered a crushing defeat and suffered heavy losses, but there was no dissatisfaction in Duke Yu's eyes. He was full of admiration for Qin Sang, showing extraordinary tolerance.

"I will definitely prepare a bed for you," Qin Sang bowed slightly and looked at She Chen.

She Chen nodded, indicating that he had reached an agreement with Duke Yu.

Qin Sang waved his sleeves, and the stars in the sky disappeared instantly, turning into a sword light, revealing two figures.

The old man and another cultivator from the Tianyu clan were both in weak condition, but their lives were in danger. They would be able to recover after a period of recuperation.

Yu Ling stepped over, helped the old man up, and said teasingly, "Grandpa Qi, you've fallen flat on your face this time."

The old man gave a bitter smile, turned to look at Qin Sang, bowed from a distance, turned around and left without saying a word.

"Elder Qin, see you later!"

Yu Ling did not forget to wave goodbye to Qin Sang, as if Qin Sang was not Tian Yu's opponent, but a friend.

Until the Tianyu clan's practitioners disappeared into the sky, her clear voice still echoed in the air.

"Elder Qin, don't be fooled by her appearance," She Chen saw Qin Sang staring at the direction where Yu Ling left, and couldn't help but remind him, "This girl may look innocent, but she is known as a witch in the North. Many strong men have been fooled by her, but because of her identity, they can't do anything to her. She mentioned the insect tomb in front of Elder Qin on purpose this time, which obviously has bad intentions."

"Is it?"

Qin Sang did not comment, but asked, "I wonder what exactly the Insect Tomb is that makes you so afraid?"

Seeing that Qin Sang was indeed tempted, She Chen sighed secretly, "The so-called 'Insect Tomb' is located in Gonggong Terrace, one of the ten forbidden places. Among the ten forbidden places, there are holy places and dangerous places. Gonggong Terrace was once a holy place, but now it is an absolute dangerous place!"

Qin Sang had heard of the ten forbidden areas a long time ago. Fengju Yumen was one of the ten forbidden areas of the Wu clan.

Some forbidden areas are like Fengju and Yumen, full of dangers, while others have extraordinary symbols and significance to the Wu clan, and are holy places that have been passed down from ancient times to the present day.

In the competition for the chief witch, the saint who stands out from the competition will eventually go to a sacred mountain to decide the final chief witch. The mountain is called Dengbao Mountain, which is a holy place among the ten forbidden places.

In the legend of the witch clan, Dengbao Mountain is where all the witches go up and down, meaning that it is the place where the ancient witches traveled back and forth between heaven and earth, and it is the only way to ascend to heaven and pay homage to the gods.

In ancient times, there was another mountain with a similar status, that is Lingshan. It is recorded that there were ten great celestial witches stationed in Lingshan to guard the mountain on behalf of the gods. From then on, they ascended and descended, announced the gods' will, and conveyed the people's feelings.

In the dream of the alien holy land, Lingshan is the base camp for the human race and the descendants of gods to resist the demon race.

Qin Sang suspected that the current Buddhist holy land Lingshan was the holy mountain of the Wu clan. The Wu clan lost Lingshan, and Dengbao Mountain became the only holy mountain.

Each of the ten forbidden areas of the Wu clan has a mysterious ancient legend, and Gonggong's Terrace is no exception.

"Gonggong...but is it related to Gonggong clan?" Qin Sang asked.

The Gonggong clan is one of the oldest clans of the Wu clan. It is said that it split in ancient times. The Gonggong clan no longer exists, but many of the split clans have survived, and the Kanghui clan is one of them.

In ancient times, Gonggong was known as the water god. Many clans in later generations whose talents were related to water had connections with Gonggong.

"Yes, Gonggong Terrace was once the holy place of Gonggong. It was said to be built according to the will of the gods, known as the God's Terrace, and contained the power of the gods. However, Gonggong Terrace was destroyed as early as the ancient times. Now the forbidden area is just a ruin and has nothing to do with the legendary Gonggong Terrace. It may not even be the site of Gonggong Terrace. Perhaps it is a name imposed on it by later generations," She Chen shook his head repeatedly, trying to dispel Qin Sang's dangerous thoughts.

The cooperation between Dongyang clan and Qinsang was very pleasant. After several times, Qinsang reaped great rewards and Dongyang clan also gained a lot.

Qin Sang's attack on Gonggong's Terrace would not bring any benefit to Dongyang Clan. Instead, it might lead to unexpected events and affect the dispute over Siwu.

Those dangerous places that can be listed as the ten forbidden areas are all extremely dangerous. Even the great wizards dare not trespass. No matter how strong Qin Sang is, how can he be compared with the great wizards?

"Why did a holy place become a worm tomb?" Qin Sang was curious.

The so-called "worm tomb", as the name suggests, is a cemetery for insects. From the name you can tell that it is definitely not a good place.

"This involves ancient secrets, and I'm afraid no one in the world knows it. Although the Kanghui clan is a branch of the Gonggong clan, Fellow Daoist Li probably can't explain it clearly," She Chen thought to himself that something was wrong, and Qin Sang's interest was getting stronger and stronger.

"Don't be confused, Elder Qin. The Insect Tomb is located deep in the Gonggong Terrace. It is only a rumor that there are great opportunities there. As far as I know, there have been very few people who have entered it over the years. Only those who are desperate or have compelling reasons will take the risk to enter the Insect Tomb, but less than one in ten can finally leave safely. For the loser, not only will the spirit insect die, but the owner will also be buried there. Elder Qin has a bright future, so why take the risk..."

She Chen advised earnestly, "Those Daoists who broke into the Insect Tomb all had unrealistic fantasies. Even if there really was an opportunity, they are not familiar with the terrain and do not know the laws of the Insect Tomb. They can only rush around like headless flies, and their hope is extremely slim."

Qin Sang was not unaware of She Chen's advice, but She Chen would definitely put the interests of the Dongyang clan first, and inevitably exaggerated the dangers and difficulties involved.

As the saying goes, "hearing both sides leads to enlightenment, while heeding only one side leads to ignorance." Qin Sang planned to listen to other people's opinions before deciding whether to go or not.

and……

In the sea of ​​qi, the wings of the Tianmu Butterfly opened and closed, and the light in her Tianmu flickered, showing her restless mood.

Qin Sang was greatly surprised. Ever since his realm had far surpassed that of the Tianmu Butterfly, the Tianmu Butterfly had been eager to catch up with him, but he did not expect that this will was so strong.

There is the reluctance to fall behind, the desire to walk side by side with the master, the urgency to help the master in any way it can, and the fear of being completely left behind, just like the Fire Jade Centipede!

As Qin Sang keeps moving forward, there will always be "fellow Taoists" who fall behind, but he will not stop to wait for them. They will get farther and farther away from him until they can no longer even see his back.

This is true for fellow Taoists, and it is also true for spiritual insects and beasts.

The Fire Jade Centipede was left in Qingyang Temple by Qin Sang. If there is no great opportunity, it will lose the qualification to follow Qin Sang forever in this life.

Ever since the Tianmu Butterfly recognized its master, it has been obedient to Qin Sang like a well-behaved daughter. This is the first time that she has expressed her wishes so strongly.

She wants to go to the insect tomb!

"She really looks like a daughter who has entered her rebellious period..."

Qin Sang sighed secretly.

He used to regard Tianmu Butterfly as a helper in cultivation and fighting, and Tianmu Butterfly would never disobey him, so he subconsciously ignored Tianmu Butterfly's thoughts.

As Tianmu Butterfly's realm and intelligence become higher and higher, she will eventually have her own thoughts and wishes.

Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect.

Tianmu Die has followed Qin Sang for so long and made great contributions. In the most difficult times, only Tianmu Die and he depended on each other.

Even if Tianmu Die obeyed his orders, Qin Sang could easily suppress or even erase Tianmu Die's will and treat her as a pure tool. How could he bear to do that?

"No wonder most cultivators choose to sacrifice their own spiritual treasures to refine them into real treasures! What if one day the spirit of the weapon gets inspired and has ideas that are inconsistent with the master, or even go against the master's interests..."

Qin Sang thought of Yunyou Sword. The sword spirit Yunyou had a stronger will than Tianmu Butterfly. If Yunyouzi regained consciousness one day, who knows what would happen.

Thinking of this, Qin Sang secretly shook his head and said with a cupped hand: "Please help me contact Daoist Li. I have something to ask her."

After all, he failed to convince Qin Sang. She Chen sighed helplessly and could only agree.

……

A few days later.

Qin Sang took out a new magic boat and sailed it in the sky. She Shuang was released by him and knew nothing about the battle in the previous few days.

Suddenly, the wind-hyphen in his hand trembled, and the insect opened its mouth slightly, and a cold female voice came out, "Old Ghost She said that Elder Qin is interested in Gonggong Terrace?"

"Exactly!"

"Your real goal is actually the insect tomb, right?" Li guessed Qin Sang's intention. "As expected, a skilled person is daring. Elder Qin, aren't you afraid of being defeated in there? Will your ten thousand years of hard work turn out to be a dream?"

"That's why I'm asking for advice from Fellow Daoist Li."

Qin Sang promised, "If Daoist Fellow Li has something he likes, or an enemy, you may bring it here. There will definitely be a result that will satisfy Daoist Fellow."

"Elder Qin is so arrogant. Oh! I forgot to congratulate Elder Qin. Even the Tianyu clan was defeated by Elder Qin!"

Li's tone was not without sarcasm, "What a pity that you are my enemy!"

"You are obsessed with appearances, fellow Taoist."

Qin Sang smiled.

Li snorted coldly, "Stop talking nonsense! My clan has indeed preserved some books that record Gonggong Terrace. As for how much help they can provide, I don't know because I have never been inside. My ancestors once took action, but for some reason it ended so abruptly. They gave up exploring Gonggong Terrace a long time ago. Over the years, the interior of the forbidden area may have changed beyond recognition, and the previous experience may not be effective. I can give all of these to you, but whether they are useful or not, you owe me a favor!"

"Okay! As long as it doesn't harm my interests, I can agree to it," Qin Sang said.

"You are... heading to Yulei Mountain now. I will send someone to take you there immediately..."

The sound of Li gradually faded away, and the hyacinth fell into a deep sleep.

Qin Sang took out the geomancy map and glanced at it, found the location of Yulei Mountain, and ordered Sheshuang to turn the magic boat around.

……

Gonggong's platform.

This forbidden area also has a terrifying name—God’s Weeping Blood Plain!

Looking inside from outside the forbidden area, one can see endless blood clouds covering the entire forbidden area, as if it was dyed red by the blood of the gods. The blood of the gods brought tremendous resentment, turning this place into a place of resentment, and one can faintly smell the smell of blood.

Under the low blood clouds, a strange howling wind never stops, as if the gods are crying.

Just the divine crying sound from the outside is enough to shake people's minds, and no living creature dares to approach.

Silently, three figures emerged outside the forbidden area.

"We're here! Grandpa Qi, Grandma Qi, let's wait for him here!"

Yu Ling clapped her hands and looked around, looking for a place to stay.

"Young Master, do you think Elder Qin will really come?" The old woman frowned.

"He's already moved! I feel like he's as conceited as my dad, he'll definitely come!"

Yu Ling paused, "If he doesn't come, we'll go in by ourselves."

"This man is extremely cunning, and his strength is probably not weaker than that of Master Wuzhu. Going with him is tantamount to seeking the skin of a tiger. What if... we are afraid that we can't protect the young master," the old man had to admit that there was a gap between them and Qin Sang.

"What are you afraid of? We won't hurt him on purpose!" Yu Ling didn't care at all. He aimed at a mountain and flew down.

The old woman and the old man exchanged a look, looking helpless, wondering why Duke Yu allowed it. (End of this chapter)
