Yicheng stayed in Zhao Mansion for more than a month, talking about brotherhood with his younger brother. During this period, he also told his younger brother about Gu Nanxin. Zhao Tianci was grieved, and determined to stick to his master's legacy and protect the country of Qi. After Yicheng heard this

I can only smile helplessly.

I can only put aside these worries at this time and wait until I have the opportunity to talk about it again in the future.

When there were still five days left before the ten-year deadline for his master, Yi Cheng bid farewell to Zhao Deyuan and went to Fengming Mountain alone to find his master.

Three days later, Yicheng found the village and asked the people in the village. Everyone knew the name of the master. A middle-aged man immediately took Yicheng to a courtyard and said that his master Song Wuque had already told him.

If someone is looking for him, bring him here. Wait for a few days and he will come back.

Yicheng couldn't find out the whereabouts of his master from the middle-aged man, so he had no choice but to stay here.

This courtyard is an ordinary farmhouse courtyard, with two entrances: front and back.

There are some flowers and plants in the front yard, and they are neatly kept, as if someone takes care of them regularly.

There are several side rooms at the back, and a living room in the middle. The furniture is simple.

Yicheng found a room to stay on his own and practiced here for the time being while waiting for his master.

After staying here for another seven or eight days, there was still no sign of the master. Yicheng actually chatted with the middle-aged man who brought him here that day and became quite familiar with him.

The man came here every day to clean the courtyard and tidy up the flowers and plants. After Yi Cheng came, he brought him meals every day and occasionally a jug of wine.

Yicheng wanted to give him some silver, but he refused to accept it.

From his mouth, Yicheng learned some things about his master.

The master has been living here for decades and teaches children in the village to read in his spare time. This middle-aged man is called Qiu Hong. He was rescued by the master from a robber when he went out. All his family members died tragically and he was brought back to the village by the master.

Start a new life here.

Now, more than ten years have passed, and I have a wife and children, and my life is stable.

He was grateful to his master and helped clean the courtyard and tend to the flowers and plants every day. When the master was around, he also brought him daily meals.

Song Wuque has a very high prestige in this village. The villagers all know that he is an expert, knowledgeable and courteous, and they all respect him.

The master often goes out to do business, which can last for three to five years or as short as a few months. The rest of the time is spent in the village teaching children to read, read, and distinguish right from wrong.

Before going out this time, he told Qiu Hong that if anyone wanted to find him, he would bring him here to stay. He also told Qiu Hong about his return date.

But now that several days have passed, he still hasn't returned, and Yicheng can't help but feel a little worried.

Naturally, no one can harm the master's cultivation in the mortal world, but now that Yicheng knows the existence of cultivators, he is a little worried about the master. Moreover, the master's life is about to end, will his cultivation be greatly damaged, and in the worst case?

The result is that the master's life span is now exhausted and he can no longer come back.

The more Yicheng thought about it, the more worried he became, but he couldn't find out the whereabouts of his master, so he could only worry about it.

While Yicheng waited anxiously, ten more days passed. Yicheng was already a little panicked at this moment. Then Yicheng decided that he could not wait any longer. He first asked the people in Qiqiao Pavilion about the whereabouts of the master. If there was no answer, he could only ask Tianfeng.

The trading company helped to inquire, and even if he owed a huge favor, Yicheng couldn't care about that much at the moment.

With the decision made, Yicheng stopped staying and walked out of the room to lead the horse.

But when Yicheng just stepped out of the door, he stopped, and then showed a look of ecstasy. At this time, a middle-aged man about forty years old was standing at the door of the courtyard looking at him.

The man was dressed in green clothes and had a kind smile on his face.

Yicheng hurriedly ran forward, knelt down and kowtowed, and said, "Disciple Yicheng pays homage to his master. When he sees that his master is safe, he feels at ease." After saying this, he couldn't help but shed tears.

Over the years, Yicheng has been struggling all the way and has gone through twists and turns. He is grateful for his master's kindness all the time. He has been worried these days. Now that he has seen his master return safely, he is also crying with joy.

This man was none other than Yi Cheng's master, Song Wuque, who changed Yi Cheng's fate.

Song Wuque was also happy when he saw Yi Cheng. He smiled and scolded: "I don't need you to worry about my teacher's safety, but you did some things to satisfy my teacher under the pseudonym Xiao Yi. That's good. I haven't seen you for almost ten years.

You are no longer a child. Why are you crying? Get up quickly. I have something else to ask you. Come into the house with me."

Upon hearing this, Yicheng stood up, wiped the tears on his face, and followed Song Wuque into the living room.

The two entered the hall. Song Wuque asked about Yicheng's experiences over the years. Yi Cheng told them in detail. Song Wuque had also heard about Yicheng's performance. Now that he was seeing Yicheng again, he was deeply relieved to talk about it.

When Yicheng talked about the confusion he was facing now, Song Wuque did not make a decision for him. He just said that everything should be done according to the heart, as long as he had a clear conscience.

Yicheng had nothing to hide from Song Wuque and told him about his encounter with Yun Feiyan. When Song Wuque heard this, he was stunned at first, then a touch of sadness flashed in his eyes, and finally he was full of joy and warned Yi Cheng not to do it because of

Because of poor spiritual roots, they gave up cultivation and pursued the path to immortality.

Yi Cheng heard deep expectations from his master's words, and then Song Wuque told Yi Cheng some secrets about himself.

Song Wuque was born in this village. He didn't like official battles. Although he was rich in economics, he still lived here. When he was in his twenties, he set up a private school in the village to teach these children to read and write.

He likes to study ancient books and often collects books that have been handed down from ancient times.

Once he accidentally tore the cover of an unknown ancient book and got the unknown formula from it. After studying it, Song Wuque found that it seemed to be an extraordinary practice formula. Out of curiosity, Song Wuque followed

Practice the above method.

However, no matter how hard he tried, he could not achieve the effects mentioned in the nameless formula. However, as he practiced for a long time, his body's strength and reaction became extremely sharp, so he found other martial arts secret books to practice, and found that his martial arts training was ineffective.

His qualifications are extremely outstanding. After more than ten years of hard work, he has reached the innate realm that warriors dream of. At the same time, he is also the youngest Martial God in Tianfeng Continent.

At this time, he also understood that the reason why he practiced martial arts so quickly was because of the nameless formula. However, after more than ten years of research, he could not figure out the origin and other effects of the nameless formula.

In the following decades, he often walked around the mainland in the hope of making another breakthrough, but the Martial God seemed to be at the peak of the martial arts. He searched for more than 20 years and found nothing. At this time, Song Wuque's cultivation was already at the peak of the Martial God, so he

Go deep into the endless sea and vast mountains to seek breakthroughs.

Once while exploring the Cangwu Mountains, Song Wuque met a seriously injured old man. Out of chivalry, Song Wuque rescued him to heal his injuries. However, Song Wuque discovered that his pure innate Qi was unable to heal the other man's injuries.

I had to wait for him to wake up slowly.

The man had to be taken care of by Song Wuque, and he finally woke up after being comatose for several days. He was very grateful to see Song Wuque save him, but he knew that he was too seriously injured and did not have much time left, so he told Song Wuque that his name was Hua Yuan, and he was

The cultivator also informed him about the various aspects of cultivation. Song Wuque was overjoyed when he heard this. He searched hard and finally found a way to break through, so he wanted to practice with Hua Yuan.

After checking, Hua Yuan told Song Wuque that he had no spiritual roots and could not practice.

The cultivator absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into the body according to the skills. The quality of the spiritual root is related to how much spiritual energy can be left in the body. The better the spiritual root qualifications, the more spiritual energy is absorbed and left in the body. In the end,

Good spiritual roots can absorb more than 90% of spiritual power, while the worst ones can only absorb less than 10%. This shows the role of spiritual roots in cultivators.

Mortals without spiritual roots are like a funnel. As much as they absorb from the outside world, they will slip away. Without spiritual power, they naturally cannot cultivate.

Song Wuque was naturally unwilling to let his newly ignited hope disappear like this. For the next few months, he stayed with Hua Yuan and asked Hua Yuan to talk about some cultivation matters. Seeing that Hua Yuan refused to give up, Hua Yuan did not force him.

Just tell him some stories.

After several months of getting along, Hua Yuan and Song Wuque got along quite well, and he told Song Wuque everything he knew.

The more Song Wuque understood, the more he longed for cultivation, but he had no spiritual roots. He just thought about the inexhaustible path in his heart and looked for other ways in the future.

A few months later, Hua Yuan's injuries could no longer be suppressed and he eventually died. Before his death, he gave his storage ring to Song Wuque and taught him a trick to use the storage ring temporarily.
