Chapter 275 Level 2 Array Master

The reason why Song Qingming was in such a hurry to go back was not because he was really afraid that the people he would offend would come to trouble him, but mainly because Song Qingming was anxious to go back and collect materials so that he could quickly break through his formation level.

This time, he came to Guiyunfang, which was very smooth. Not only did Song Qingming have a lot of spirit stones on him, but he also unexpectedly got a book called Qingxi Bi Tan, which could improve his formation level. To be honest, half of the credit should be thanked to Shi Chun.

Just before leaving Guiyunfang, Shi Chun specially distributed the portrait of Huang Siyuan that he had asked someone to draw in the past few days to some of his former friends who were casual cultivators, asking them to help keep an eye on this person. Once there was any news, they would quickly send a message to Funiu Mountain, and there would be a reward.

These people have been hanging around in Guiyunfang and Fuyun Mountain for many years. As long as Huang Siyuan really came here, she would not be able to completely avoid their eyes after a long time, and news would come sooner or later.

After leaving Guiyunfang, the two hurried all the way and returned to Funiu Mountain smoothly. Song Qingming was in a good mood and specially gave Shi Chun a second-level spiritual talisman as his reward.

Shi Chun was recruited to the Song family by Song Qingming, the helmsman of the family. In these years in Funiu Mountain, even the elders of the Chang generation were polite to him because of Song Qingming's face.

Shi Chun has been living a good life in the Song family for these years. As soon as he arrived at the Song family, Shi Chun served as a guest elder of the family. His status in the Song family was slightly lower than that of several elders in charge, and he was highly valued by Song Qingming.

Two years after arriving at the Song family, with the help of the clan leader Song Changfeng, Shi Chun also married a female cultivator of the Xin generation of the Song family as his wife, which was considered to be completely rooted in the Song family. The two have given birth to two children in these years, but it is a pity that none of them have spiritual roots.

Song Qingming has been studying the art of talismans for the past few years, and he already has a lot of second-level talismans on him. He has found excuses to reward almost every ninth-level Qi Refining cultivator in the family who can use second-level talismans with a second-level talisman for self-defense.

Shi Chun's cultivation level also reached the ninth level of Qi Refining a year ago. Song Qingming just had an excuse this time, so he treated him equally and gave him one for self-defense in the future.

In the Song family, those who can cultivate to the ninth level of Qi Refining are the absolute backbone of the family. The safety of these people is also what Song Qingming is most worried about. Now, with Song Qingming's intentional reward, each of them has an extra second-level talisman, and their combat capabilities are naturally greatly improved.

The ninth-level Qi Refining cultivator holding a second-level talisman is far more powerful than ordinary Qi Refining cultivators. Even if they face foundation-building cultivators, they can have a little chance to threaten the other party.

After returning to Funiu Mountain, Song Qingming immediately fell into seclusion again, but this time he was not making talismans, but preparing to start refining second-level formations to break through his own formation skills.

However, before that, it still takes some time to collect various materials.

Half a month later, under Song Qingming's instructions, the Song family cultivators immediately began to collect special materials for refining arrays in the market.

The difficulty of the second-level array chosen by Song Qingming this time was relatively average, and the materials required for refining were not particularly rare. The Song family only spent a few days in Qinghefang to collect most of them. The remaining second-level materials, which were the most difficult to obtain, were quickly collected by Song Qingming after he personally went to Jinshanfang.

After half a year of retreat and thinking, Song Qingming, as expected, successfully refined his first set of second-level arrays, breaking through his array skills to the second level.

The second-level array he refined was the most common second-level spirit gathering array. When it was arranged in the cave for cultivation, it could greatly increase the concentration of spiritual energy around the cave in a short period of time. It was also a common array in the world of immortal cultivation.

The classic book Qingxi Bi Tan was written by Qingxi Sanren, a close friend of the old man surnamed Gu.

This Qingxi Sanren was once a well-known casual cultivator near Guiyunfang. His formation skills had reached the second-level upper grade. Although he was a genius and had cultivated to the ninth level of foundation building early on, he failed to form a pill several times. His life span was insufficient decades ago. Before he passed away, he had no descendants to entrust his spiritual objects to, so he had to give all his spiritual objects to his close friends, so that they could help pay attention to some of his descendants left in Guiyunfang in the future.

This old man surnamed Gu was a good friend of Qingxi Sanren back then. He was given the formation book left by Qingxi Sanren, but unfortunately his formation talent was average, so he didn't use it after getting this book.

Decades have passed, and the old man surnamed Gu's affection for Qingxi Sanren has gradually faded with the passage of time. After all, people leave and tea is cold, and ordinary friendships are difficult to maintain for too long.

Recently, he was eager to break through the realm, and the old man surnamed Gu was going to ask someone to help him refine a furnace of elixir. He happened to be short of a few spiritual medicines, so he simply took this thing to the exchange meeting. He happened to meet Song Qingming, a person who liked formations, and exchanged some spiritual objects that were more useful to him. The two of them got what they needed.

The Qingxi Classics were not very useful in his hands, but in Song Qingming's eyes, this classic was still far more than what he had paid at the time.

In this book, Qingxi Sanren not only recorded the various formations he encountered during his two hundred years of practice, but also specially marked his various experiences in refining and setting up formations. It was precisely with the help of such good annotations that Song Qingming was able to refine the second-level formation so smoothly this time.

Compared with the breakthrough in the art of making talismans, Song Qingming's interest in formations is obviously more talented. His ability to improve talismans so quickly is entirely due to practice, but he does have some talent in the study of formations.

This time out of retreat, Song Qingming can be said to have double happiness. Not only did he improve his formation level, but his cultivation also broke through to the fifth level of foundation building a month ago.

Because of the existence of the incomplete map, he can greatly shorten the time for him to recover his mana. Even though Song Qingming has been focusing on making talismans and refining formations in recent years, his own cultivation has not fallen behind at all.

At the age of seventy, he has cultivated to the fifth level of foundation building. This cultivation speed is almost catching up with the average cultivator with two spiritual roots. Song Qingming is still very satisfied with his current cultivation level.

In the entire Qinghe County, the only people of the same age who practiced faster than him were Huang Shengxin and Gao Yubai of the Gao family. It was a miracle that he could keep up with them with a pseudo-spiritual root of four spiritual roots.

With the improvement of his cultivation, Song Qingming's mana also increased a lot. Now his success rate in making talismans or refining formations will be slightly higher.
