Longevity starts with dual cultivation

Chapter 227 Dreamland
Ling Changqing naturally had some ideas about the future of the Ling family.

Perhaps in the eyes of those upper-class forces, this family is not that big, but it is a force that completely belongs to Ling Changqing himself, so he cannot give up.

In the foreseeable future, it is inevitable that Ling Qiyue will become a Yuanying Zhenjun, and this includes Ling Changqing himself, as well as Qin Yun and other girls.

In the future, the Ling family will inevitably continue to expand outward, win more development space for the family, and wipe out all the forces, big and small, in the surrounding waters.

Therefore, war is inevitable. The mid-term goal of Ling Changqing and the family's top brass is to expand the family's territory to at least the size of ten sea areas.

However, in this case, it is only a matter of time before the Ling family comes into conflict with those Yuanying forces in the coastal areas of Yuzhou.

In the coastal areas of Yuzhou, there are quite a few Yuanying forces. They usually have only one or two Yuanying Zhenjun in charge, and can only be regarded as barely squeezing into the threshold of this circle.

However, for these Jindan forces within the coastal area of ​​Yuzhou, they are still huge monsters that are difficult to provoke. Usually, they can only flatter them with nice words and even offer some benefits in exchange for peace.

The Ling family now has two Nascent Soul True Lords, Luo Qingxuan and Yu Ruoshuang, but in the foreseeable future, their identities will not be made public.

Therefore, the Ling family must have their own Yuanying Zhenjun as soon as possible to ensure the safety of the family foundation.

After a day and a night, Liu Xiuyan successfully came out of seclusion and achieved the top-grade golden elixir.

Liu Qianlan was naturally delighted by this and no longer had any doubts about Ling Changqing's special abilities.

At the celebration banquet, Liu Qianlan finally saw the lineup of Ling Changqing's Red Army. She was surprised and shocked, and gained a deeper understanding of the hidden strength of the Ling family.

Especially with the existence of Luo Qingxuan and Yu Ruoshuang, the Ling family has become a de facto Nascent Soul force, and is qualified to consider further external expansion plans.

"...There is one thing I don't quite understand,"

Ling Changqing said: "The Yuanying forces in the coastal areas of Yuzhou should send people to contact us, right? Why is there no movement yet?"

According to convention, when the Ling family became the sole ruler of the Feiyu Sea, it should have attracted the attention of those Nascent Soul forces.

However, until now, the Ling family has not encountered even one cultivator from the Nascent Soul stage, as if they had forgotten about it.

"That's because there has been a war going on in the coastal areas of Yuzhou for the past ten years. Those Yuanying forces are fighting fiercely, so how can they care about other things?"

Xue Qingtan smiled and said that with the intelligence network of the Nebula Falcon Chamber of Commerce, they would naturally be able to see through such things.

But this has nothing to do with the Ling family, and Xue Qingtan has never mentioned this matter before.

Ling Qiyue said in surprise: "It seems that the scale of this war is not small. It has not stopped even now."

Xue Qingtan said: "The cause of the war is very simple. An ancient cave ruin was discovered in the territory of Songhe Sword Sect. It is said that several good magic weapons were found in the outer area alone.

As the news leaked, it attracted the covetousness of a large group of surrounding forces. The Songhe Sword Sect wanted to take the opportunity for itself, and the two sides negotiated several times without success, and finally couldn't help but take action. "

"I see."

Ling Changqing nodded without asking any more questions.

In the world of cultivating immortals, this kind of thing is commonplace. In order to compete for certain opportunities, fathers and sons, husbands and wives have become enemies. It is not uncommon to see fathers and sons, husbands and wives turning against each other, let alone between these forces?
Of course, the coastal areas of Yuzhou were caught up in the war and their overall strength was severely weakened, which was undoubtedly good news for the many Jindan forces in the coastal area.

"Husband, if this is the case, then our family can..."

Tang Qiuyao asked softly.

Ling Changqing hesitated for a moment, then shook his head: "It's not very suitable at the moment, the middle and lower levels of our family are still a little weak.

It is easy to conquer the territory, but it is still difficult to actually control and effectively operate it, so let's wait and see."

Now, even if the Ling family were to gain one or two new territories in the sea, they would not be able to integrate and digest them, let alone enhance the family's strength. Instead, they would have to devote a lot of energy to guarding them, which was not worth it at all.

"Well, what my husband said is not wrong, so let's wait a little longer."

Ling Qiyue spoke gently.

The number of foundation-building and mid-to-late stage Qi-training cultivators in the Ling family is still too small. Even if the independent cultivators and guest officials serving the family are included, it is still a bit stretched.

However, Ling Qiyue felt that as long as she had another twenty years, when she became a Yuanying Zhenjun, this problem would no longer exist.

An hour later, the celebration banquet came to an end.

Ling Changqing returned to his boudoir surrounded by the girls and continued to practice with them.

Liu Qianlan planned to talk to her apprentice, so she didn't come this time. Ling Changqing didn't care about it. Since she was here, it didn't matter if she came a few days earlier or later.

When the moon was at its highest point in the sky, Ling Changqing and the other girls fell into a deep sleep after having their fun.

In a trance, Ling Changqing found himself leaving the family headquarters and coming alone to the Qingming sky.

The vast, quiet and mysterious ocean of stars hangs above your head, countless cool, magnificent and elusive stars are scattered in the sky, and everything is silent.

Suddenly, an unknown mysterious force struck him, pushing him across the sky at high speed, like a dazzling star, flying towards the coastal areas of Yuzhou Continent.

In a flash, thousands of islands of various shapes and sizes passed by below, stretching millions of miles away.

Ling Changqing frowned slightly and concentrated on thinking about his current situation. Since he was promoted to a foundation-building cultivator, he rarely had dreams.

The current strange situation is indeed a bit abnormal, but there is no sense of danger at the spiritual level.

Before we knew it, the dark green coastline of Yuzhou Continent appeared at the end of our field of vision, approaching rapidly.

At this time, Ling Changqing finally saw several streams of light of different colors passing by at high speed from a very far distance, and they seemed to be in the same direction as him.

Ling Changqing pursed his lips and decided to wait and see.

As time went by, the coastline of the continent was getting closer and closer, and soon Ling Changqing entered the airspace above the continent without any hindrance and continued to fly towards the hinterland.

At this time, the number of flowing lights around gradually increased. They were the many cultivators who were controlling the escape light, from the foundation-building stage to the golden elixir and the Nascent Soul stage.

These monks frantically mobilized all their magical powers, controlling various spiritual weapons and magical treasures to travel, and at the same time did not forget to communicate with their minds to call friends and form gangs.

Later on, short and fierce fights would break out between some of the close-range escaping lights, and from time to time, monks would fall from mid-air with screams.

Ling Changqing was just watching coldly at this moment, and under the guidance of the mysterious force, he was rapidly approaching a certain area.

The strange thing was that the increasing number of monks around did not notice Ling Changqing's existence. They formed gangs and rushed to the road, fighting, and often passed by Ling Changqing, but failed to have the slightest impact on him.

As the distance got closer, Ling Changqing gradually accelerated, leaving wave after wave of cultivators behind, even some Nascent Soul True Lords were no exception.

After an unknown amount of time, Ling Changqing finally showed signs of slowing down. At the end of the sky, a majestic mountain range came closer and closer, with many steep and rugged peaks clearly visible.

"This should be... Songhe Mountains?"

Ling Changqing pondered for a moment, then dug out the map information of the coastal area of ​​Yuzhou from the depths of his memory. This place was the base of the Songhe Sword School.

As the mountain gate of a Yuanying force, the concentration of spiritual energy and the Feng Shui environment of this place are quite good, at least not comparable to the current Changqingzhou.

An unknown mysterious force pushed Ling Changqing forward rapidly, and he soon crossed the mountain range and entered the heart of Songhe Sword Sect.

Those monks who came from all directions were heading in the same direction as Ling Changqing, and seemed to be heading for the same goal.

"I want to see what tricks you guys can come up with..."

Ling Changqing muttered to himself as he easily passed a group of Yuanying Zhenjuns who were fighting fiercely and covered in blood, and flew towards a giant glowing peak at the end of the sky.

When he got closer, he realized that it was a stone statue of Buddha that was over ten thousand feet tall. It must have been carved from an entire mountain. No one knew which ancient great man had created it.

At this moment, the entire body of the giant Buddha statue was shrouded in tangible sandalwood-gold Buddha light. The blazing golden light penetrated the sky and the earth, like a magnificent and majestic pillar of heaven, illuminating the dark night as bright as day.

Countless monks were surrounding the Buddha statue, controlling various spiritual weapons and magical treasures to attack with all their might, trying to break through the golden light curtain. Amidst the flashing colorful lights, the explosions of numerous powerful magical spells shook the earth.

However, the sandalwood gold Buddha light was extremely tough and thick. No matter how hard the many Nascent Soul True Lords attacked, the light curtain only caused ripples, and there was no sign of collapse.

At this time, Ling Changqing finally slowed down.

He looked at it intently. The Buddha statue was of a woman with plump and full features and lifelike facial expressions. She was wearing a golden robe and had her palms clasped together. Her expression was gentle and quiet, with a mysterious and timeless smile at the corners of her lips.

Soon, Ling Changqing discovered a cave shining with golden light between her eyebrows, and a kind of vicissitudes of life, majestic, magnificent and vast Taoist aura emanated from it.

Obviously, the destination of these monks is that cave, and they want to rush in to look for opportunities.

They still have time to waste if they just want to break through the golden Buddha light outside the statue and clear the obstacles to entering.

In the distance, cultivators kept rushing over from all directions, and even a peak-level incarnation cultivator appeared inside. It was clear that the opportunity hidden in this ancient Buddha statue was so great that even they couldn't help but show up.

Before Ling Changqing could figure out what to do, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of his eye.

"Liuying Mengluan? She's here too?"

Looking at the beautiful figure with fluttering sleeves and extraordinary grace flying by in the light from afar, Ling Changqing couldn't tell the feeling in his heart.

At this moment, as some low roaring sounded, the eyes of the giant Buddha statue slowly opened, revealing a pair of golden pupils, slowly spinning like a huge whirlpool.

"Get out of the way!"

I don't know who shouted, but immediately those monks who were desperately besieging stopped and scattered.

The Buddha statue opened its eyes and seemed to come alive. It slightly tilted its head and looked in the direction where Ling Changqing was.

At that moment, Ling Changqing even felt that she smiled at him.

Before he could react, thousands of gorgeous starlight burst out from the cave between the Buddha statue's eyebrows without warning and disappeared into the vast night sky.

Only a few of the monks around were able to react in time, and they all used their great magical powers to intercept the attack.

And the most dazzling, powerful and profound starlight among them actually rushed straight towards Ling Changqing's position.

He had no time to react before the starlight rushed into the depths of his sea of ​​consciousness and merged with his soul without any hindrance.

"Over there! Chase after him!"

Many cultivators in the distance roared and rushed towards Ling Changqing.

Looking at the ferocious and crazy expressions of those cultivators from afar, Ling Changqing felt his scalp tingling. Even if he was now a powerful being at the peak of the Spirit Transformation Realm, he would find it difficult to withstand it, right?

At the critical moment, the unknown mysterious force appeared again, pushing Ling Changqing to leave at high speed in the direction he came from.

“There—!”

The many cultivators behind him shouted in shock and anger, and drove their light beams to chase after him desperately.

However, Ling Changqing's speed was obviously faster. After a while, he had pulled away and flew towards the sea off Yuzhou, followed by a large group of cultivators who were chasing him madly.

Those foundation-building cultivators were the first to be left out of sight, followed by the Jindan cultivators, and then the weaker Yuanying True Lords.

By the time Ling Changqing's figure returned to the sky above the vast ocean and thousands of islands passed by, only a few Jindan cultivators were still chasing him.

Chasing in the front were two stunning beauties. The one wearing a dark blue palace skirt embroidered with phoenix, wind, thunder and cloud patterns, with a bun made of green clouds, looking noble, bright, graceful and elegant, was Liuying Ziying, the head of the Liuying family.

The other was Qin Mengxuan, the Grand Palace Master of Luhua Palace, who looked no more than eleven or twelve years old, but had a figure that was graceful, enchanting and extremely alluring. The towering snow-capped mountains in front of her towered over the crowd of beauties, with a strange domineering aura that could not be concealed even by the complicated, gorgeous and unusually large bright yellow palace dress.

"...Fellow Daoist in front, how about stopping for a chat? I have something good to give you!"

Liuying Ziying called from afar.

Ling Changqing shook his head. If he dared to believe what they said in this situation, he would definitely be eaten to pieces, right?

The two women with anxious looks tried their best to chase after him, but the beautiful young man in purple with eyes as dark as ink and the appearance of a dragon and a phoenix was still getting farther and farther away from them.

After dozens of breaths, as the unknown mysterious force suddenly accelerated, Ling Changqing's figure completely disappeared into the depths of the night sky, as if he had never appeared.

"It's over..."

Qin Mengxuan sighed in frustration, and she and Liuying Ziying slowed down and stopped reluctantly.

"Sister, such an important opportunity has actually fallen into the hands of an outsider. Isn't it..."

Liuying Ziying said this, but was stopped by Qin Mengxuan with a look.

"If I'm not mistaken, the young man just now seemed to be the son of destiny, Ling Changqing, right?"

Qin Mengxuan spoke to her with her divine consciousness.

Liuying Ziying was slightly startled, then she reacted and said in disbelief: "Yes, it seems to be him? Then we..."
