Longevity starts with dual cultivation

Chapter 127 Fu Yuezhou

Off the coast of Changqing Island.

The Tianzhou fleet of the Nebula Falcon Chamber of Commerce came again, with a total of more than twenty gorgeous ships over a hundred feet long, and thousands of monks accompanying them.

This group of merchants has been out for more than three years. They have passed through half of the Yuzhou continent and the territories of hundreds of forces, large and small, exchanging what they have with them and buying and selling various cultivation resources.

Moreover, they do not refuse transactions with certain powerful independent cultivation groups, and they dare to accept certain goods of unknown origin.

The Ling family in Feiyu Sea is the last stop of their trip. After finishing the affairs here, the team will return to the Chamber of Commerce headquarters to report.

In the middle of the team, the three-hundred-foot-long flagship was shrouded in the thick aura of a magic circle. Xue Qingtan, wearing a Taoist robe as white as snow with fluttering sleeves, came riding on the wind with two trusted followers.

After showing a jade token as proof of her identity and undergoing strict inspections by the guard elders along the way, she was finally allowed to enter the interior cabin of the flagship.

At this time, the fleet of ships was already loaded with a huge amount of resources and wealth, all of which were obtained through hard work over the past three years, so they had no choice but to be cautious.

“…Are you here?”

In the luxurious and exquisite cabin, Shentu Hong sat at the table with several delicious dishes and a pot of wine in front of him, drinking by himself.

"Elder, long time no see!"

Xue Qingtan came closer, bowed slightly, and greeted softly.

The person in front of her was actually the one who guided her on the path of cultivation, so their relationship was special.

Many years ago, Xue Qingtan was still a princess of a secular dynasty. She was seen by Shen Tuhong who was traveling occasionally. He found that she had good spiritual roots and talents, so he brought her back to the organization to train her.

Shentu Hong nodded and said with a warm look:

"Sit down and talk! You have been staying in Changqingzhou for the past few years. Have you ever thought about changing your job?"

Xue Qingtan moved lightly with lotus steps, sat down beside her, and said after hearing the words:

"It's pretty good here. I don't want to move for the time being."

Shentu Hong smiled and said, "A civil war broke out in Fuyuezhou a while ago, and several old-fashioned Jindan forces were seriously injured, and some neutral forces were also affected.

The person in charge of the organization there was accidentally injured and plans to return to the headquarters to recuperate, so I want to transfer you over there to take charge for a while."

The territory of Fu Yuezhou is much larger than that of Changqingzhou. Due to the existence of the fourth-order spiritual vein, it theoretically has the possibility of giving birth to a Yuanying Zhenjun.

It's just that the Feng Shui treasure land was divided up by several old Jindan forces. It has never been unified for thousands of years and has always been in a state of fragmentation and endless fighting.

In addition to the fact that those forces themselves are not motivated, the secret interference and obstruction from major forces outside the domain is also one of the key reasons. They do not want to see a new Nascent Soul force emerge here.

After a long period of division and chaos, Fu Yuezhou's overall strength has become increasingly weaker, and his status in the eyes of outsiders has naturally become increasingly humble.

So much so that now, even Hanyuezhou, which has only three Jindan Zhenren in charge, has begun to set its sights on Fuyuezhou.

Xue Qingtan shook his head and said, "Fu Yuezhou? I have no interest in that place. I'd better stay here!"

There was something she didn't say. When Changqingzhou rises in the future, neither Hanyuezhou nor Fuyuezhou would be able to stop it.

Perhaps hundreds of years later, I will witness the birth of a new great power with my own eyes? Just like the nine great immortal cultivation families on the Yuzhou Continent.

Shentu Hong said: "Since you don't want to go, forget it.

"In the past few years, the Ling family seems to have developed quite well. Sooner or later, the Feiyu Sea will become theirs, right?"

Xue Qingtan smiled and said, "That's for sure. The female head of the family is already in the middle stage of the Golden Core. There are more than a dozen new foundation-building cultivators born in the family, and there are also several in the middle stage of the foundation-building stage.

On the other hand, the performance of the other three forces is much worse. As long as there is no interference from foreign forces, the Ling family's dominance over the Feiyu Sea is irreversible..."

She recounted in detail the changes that had taken place in Changqing Island over the years.

Shentu Hong was thoughtful: "This speed of development doesn't seem like the development of a Jindan power anymore. Perhaps it can only be seen in Yuanying power?

By the way, how is the young friend named Ling Changqing doing? "

Compared to a Jindan Zhenren like Ling Qiyue, he is more concerned about Ling Changqing's situation.

According to certain special evaluation systems within the organization, Ling Changqing's value is obviously higher than Ling Qiyue's.

Xue Qingtan had a complicated expression: "He is now in the middle stage of foundation building, and has a female cultivator of the same level as his Taoist partner."

Shen Tu Hong's eyes narrowed slightly. "Combining the two cultivations? It can indeed speed up the improvement of cultivation, but it is still a little beyond my expectations."

"..."

Xue Qingtan thought about it, but still didn't express his guess.

Then Ling Changqing should have more than one Taoist companion. The female cultivators of the Ling family who have a close relationship with him seem to improve their cultivation at an abnormal speed.

But this conclusion sounds a bit scary. It would be fine if it was completely false, but if it is true...

Once the news spread, Ling Changqing would probably be taken away immediately by the big shot behind the organization.

After thinking about it, Xue Qingtan decided to cover it up for him:
"I heard that he went out with the Patriarch not long ago and got some good fortune in the Taoist temple in Hanhai Youming City, so he can perform so well."

"I see, that makes sense."

Shentu Hong nodded slightly.

The vastness of the world of immortal cultivation is beyond imagination. In the past, countless Taoist forces and powerful giants have been lost in the long river of time. All kinds of cave ruins and dangerous places emerge one after another.

Almost every year, some immortal palace ruins are unearthed in various parts of the continent, and naturally there are many cultivators who gain various opportunities. This is nothing to worry about.

Next, Xue Qingtan briefly reported on the financial income and expenditure of the branch, and took out several large-capacity space magic tools and presented them to the public. These tools contained various specialty resources from the Feiyu Sea area that had been purchased for the organization.

"Well done. I have always been confident in your abilities."

After listening to the report, Shentu Hong nodded with satisfaction. Although Xue Qingtan had given considerable support to the Ling family, he did not forget his responsibilities and purchased a large amount of specialty resources for the organization at reasonable prices.

"What is the situation on Yuzhou Continent recently? Has anything important happened?"

After finishing the main business, Xue Qingtan continued to ask.

Shentu Hong hesitated for a moment and shook his head gently:

"Not so good. I always feel like there's a storm brewing. The masters of the organization who are good at the art of divination are not optimistic! The Feng and Yu families had some problems with their business cooperation. It is said that several important members of the family died. The top leaders of the two families are very unhappy about this.

The first heir of Yin family died unexpectedly while exploring the outer space. Now more than a dozen children of the head of the family are fighting for that position, and they are almost fighting each other!

The head of the Mu family has gone crazy recently. He suddenly called back all of his more than 30 children and performed a blood test to identify their relatives..."

"Blood test? What is he going to do?"

Xue Qingtan's expression was slightly sluggish, and he asked with some confusion.

Unlike the mundane world, the blood test in the world of immortal cultivation is just a synonym, which actually covers tens of thousands of secret methods of blood identification.

In short, within the immortal cultivation family, there is no possibility of counterfeit goods being passed off as genuine, or of a cat replacing a prince, because it cannot be covered up at all.

Therefore, it is impossible for an honest person, a scapegoat, or a happy father to appear.

Shen Tuhong's expression suddenly became a little strange, and he whispered:
"I don't know what's going on either. I just heard that after repeated identification using a variety of secret methods, none of the more than 30 children of the head of the Mu family are his own!"

"..."

Xue Qingtan was bewildered, her beautiful eyes full of disbelief, and for a moment she thought there was something wrong with her ears.

The implication is that the head of the Mu family was cuckolded? And it's not just one or two people?
After this incident spread, it could be said to be a huge scandal and a big joke in the Yuzhou cultivation world!
"This is totally unheard of! How is this possible? There is no way this could happen, right?"

Xue Qingtan said in disbelief.

The current head of the Mu family is a big shot in the late Yuanying stage. What kind of means could have kept him so secret? And who dares to cheat on him?
Shen Tuhong sighed: "It is said that the latest test results show that the head of the Mu family is infertile, but he himself did not know it!
Moreover, from the time he first got married to now, he has had hundreds of wives and concubines, spanning hundreds of years.

I always feel that there is something fishy going on here, and it is probably a conspiracy against the Mu family..."

Under normal circumstances, this kind of thing is indeed unimaginable and should never happen.

However, given the vastness of the world of immortal cultivation, all kinds of incredible secret methods and magical powers emerge in an endless stream, and nothing can be absolute.

However, the power behind the scenes that was able to set up such a large scheme should be stronger than the nine major immortal cultivation families.

"And now? What's the result?"

Xue Qingtan blinked and couldn't help asking. As a woman, her gossipy nature took over at this moment.

"What else can we do? He ordered the execution of all his children, and the Mu family is preparing to go to war against the neighboring Yu family!"

Shentu Hong frowned as he spoke. The more he looked at this situation which was clearly filled with an aura of weirdness and abnormality, the more he became confused.

Forget it. No matter what those aristocratic families do, as long as it doesn't affect the interests of the Nebula Falcon Chamber of Commerce, he doesn't care about anything else.

However, in Xue Qingtan's opinion, these major forces in Yuzhou Continent are constantly in conflict, so naturally they have no spare energy to pay attention to the changes in the Feiyu Sea.

Therefore, the Ling family took advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to step up their own development and management, and grow into a senior Jindan force or even a Yuanying force in one fell swoop.

……

In the boudoir embroidery building.

"...Junior brother, this is your first time traveling far away alone, remember to be cautious and low-key, and don't easily cause trouble!"

The brocade curtain was lowered, and Ling Qiyue, who was lying on the embroidered bed, hugged the young man in her arms and gave him instructions in a soft voice.

"Don't worry, Senior Sister. I understand this."

Ling Changqing spoke softly, gently stroking his senior sister's skin which was as smooth and delicate as jade.

This time, he was entrusted by Ling Qiyue and Tang Qiuyao to go to Fu Yuezhou to purchase a batch of special medicinal herb resources.

Naturally, this arrangement of the two women also has the intention of training Ling Changqing. As the future helmsman of the Ling family, he should not have any shortcomings in his abilities in any aspect.

Although there is an important partner like the Nebula Falcon Chamber of Commerce, as an independent force, it obviously cannot put all its eggs in one basket.

What if, for some special reason, the Nebula Falcon Chamber of Commerce no longer cooperates with the family in the future? Wouldn't most of the resource trade channels be cut off?
Therefore, Ling Qiyue's consideration is reasonable, and if Ling Changqing is responsible for this matter, with his extraordinary luck and fortune, the possibility of success will be much greater.

Tang Qiuyao, who was blushing and had charming eyes, turned over lazily, pressed the boy with her long, slender and smooth legs, and said in a sweet voice:
"Don't worry, Senior Sister. Junior Brother has never let us down before. This time, he will definitely do it perfectly!"

"I hope so!"

Ling Qiyue smiled. She certainly didn't doubt Ling Changqing's performance. She just gave him a few more instructions out of concern.

Next, the three of them practiced in depth for dozens of rounds, until a day and a night had passed, and then they stopped with a sense of unfulfilled desire.

Ling Changqing was helped by the two women to take a bath in the hot spring pool. After getting dressed, he enjoyed a sumptuous meal before saying goodbye and leaving.

His whereabouts were of course kept extremely secret, and apart from the two women, no one else knew where he was going. Even Ling Bingyun and Qin Yun were kept in the dark.

In the lonely and high sky, the sky boat with shining light accelerated away, leaving behind a faint glowing trail.

In the cabin, Ling Changqing took out the jade slip that recorded the map and began to familiarize himself with the information about Fu Yuezhou.

As for the detailed list of purchasing resources and the required mid-grade spirit stones, they are now lying in his storage bag.

In fact, this mission is not complicated. You just need to arrive at Fu Yuezhou, find a large business there to buy resources, and then bring them back to Chang Qingzhou safely.

The only thing he needs to worry about is being targeted by the robbers along the way, but with Ling Changqing's current strength, protecting himself is not a problem at all.

Due to the long distance, it took the top-grade spiritual weapon-level flying boat more than a month to reach the outer sea area of ​​​​Fu Yuezhou.

Looking down from the sky, a dark green land with a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles, several times larger than Changqing Island, appeared at the end of the field of vision.

The winding coastline is dotted with natural harbors like pearls. Countless large and small ships go in and out of these ports, and their popularity is more than a hundred times higher than that of Changqing Island.

After all, Fu Yuezhou has been developed and operated for tens of thousands of years. Although it has never been unified, its population has reached tens of billions.

Dozens of secular dynasties of varying sizes took root in this land, and scenes of the Warring States period with alliances and endless wars were played out at every moment.

Seeing that they were not far from the land, Ling Changqing put away his flying boat and rode the wind, flying towards a prosperous and bustling port market.

When you get here, you can see cultivators flying high in the sky riding on beams of light everywhere. Most of them are in the Qi training stage, and there are also quite a few foundation-building cultivators.

However, fake and true elixir cultivators are relatively rare. Even in Fu Yuezhou, people with such cultivation are considered the upper class and will not show up easily.
