Chapter 123 Tuoba Family
"Why is the concentration of spiritual energy starting to weaken?"

Yunmengze.

The wind blows the clouds and the water mist becomes thick.

Deep in the sparsely populated Yunmeng Lake, there are countless small islands.

Contrary to what outsiders imagine, the depths of Yunmengze are not barren.

But... there is a city here!

On a huge island called Yunmeng Island, located deep in the Yunmeng Lake.

In the center of the island is a mountain shrouded in clouds.

At the foot of the mountain is a big city with a population of hundreds of thousands.

This is Yunmengze.

It is the territory of the Tuoba family, and also a free land where the laws of Dayu cannot prevail.

On top of Yunmeng Mountain, Tuoba Wufeng, the patriarch of the Tuoba family, was staring at the Yunmeng Stone in front of him in a daze.

This is the spiritual object that was refined by the ancestor of the Tuoba family of Yunmengze thousands of years ago. It is not only the hub of the Tuoba family's formation that suppresses the Yunmengze, but also can be used to monitor the concentration of spiritual energy in Yunmengze.

Ever since the spiritual energy tide and the path to immortality were cut off more than three thousand years ago, the Tuoba family has been looking for a place to practice in seclusion, sealing off the Yunmeng Lake and not coming out for a thousand years. They have also used the strength of the entire family to refine a large number of sealing formations in order to restrict the flow of spiritual energy.

However, more than three thousand years have passed, and the protective formation of the Tuoba family in Yunmengze has long been decayed and all the spirit stones have been consumed.

According to the calculations of the predecessors in the cultivation world at that time, it would take more than 7,000 years for the spiritual energy to revive after ten thousand years.

This is a time that is enough to make countless monks despair.

However, what was unexpected was that the Yunmeng Stone, which had stood at the core of the Tuoba family's formation for several years, suddenly fluctuated slightly.

A hint of green actually appeared beneath the originally bluestone-colored Yunmeng Stone!

The tribesmen who were guarding the Yunmeng Stone, the core of the formation, were startled and quickly notified the tribe leader.

They thought it was moss or something.

After testing, it was found that it was the original color of Yunmeng Stone!

According to historical records, bluestone is the true color of Yunmeng Stone.

The Yunmeng Stone will change depending on the density of the surrounding spiritual energy.

Green is the color that appears when the concentration of spiritual energy reaches a certain level.

According to the estimation of Tuoba Wuying, the only formation master in the family and one of the three elders, the spiritual energy in Yunmengze is now two to three times richer than before!
At that time, the entire Tuoba family and the seven monks were all in tears and crying bitterly.

They all believed that the time for spiritual energy revival had arrived!
And as time goes by, this idea becomes more and more confident.

Because the green color on the Yunmeng Stone is getting darker and darker, it means that the spiritual energy in the air of Yunmeng Lake is becoming more and more rich.

In more than three years, according to the calculation of the formation master Tuoba Wuying, the spiritual energy in Yunmengze has become about five times richer than before!
The concentration of this spiritual energy has reached the common level in the world of cultivation more than three thousand years ago!
This is undoubtedly a big event for the monks of the Tuoba family whose cultivation has stagnated for several years.

but……

Since last month, the green mark on the Yunmeng Stone has become increasingly faint, and the spiritual energy in the Yunmeng Lake has become noticeably weaker.

This incident directly alarmed the patriarch of the Tuoba family, Tuoba Wufeng.

Tuoba Wufeng is an old man who looks sturdy but has a hunchback. His face is full of wrinkles, but his eyes are still cold.

It can be imagined that the young monk is also a decisive and murderous monk.

And now, after discovering that the color of the Yunmeng Stone, which represented a decrease in the richness of spiritual energy, had become lighter, his expression became very ugly.

"Wuying, what is the reason?"

Tuoba Wuying, who was standing aside, was an old man in gray clothes with more wrinkles on his face, looking like an old farmer who lived in the fields all day.

He smiled bitterly and said, "Patriarch, I don't know either."

"I also discovered some signs of spiritual energy dissipating a month ago, so I quickly activated the mountain protection formation to prevent the spiritual energy from dissipating. It did work, but it was also limited."

"Now the mountain protection formation is activated with the minimum consumption every day, but it is just as fast as the spiritual energy dissipates."

"I don't think this will last long."

Tuoba Wufeng frowned and asked, "What on earth happened? Why did the spiritual energy grow for no reason and increase for no reason?"

"Outside Yunmengze, has anything happened?"

Tuoba Wuying shook his head and said, "The disciples of the clan should be back soon."

At this moment, the place where the clouds and water met in the distance slowly dispersed, and a large ship "squeezed" in.

Then a young man on the deck of the ship shook, and a cloud of water mist appeared under his feet, lifting him up and flying quickly towards Yunmeng Mountain.

"It's Qingtong, he's back!"

"Go to the meeting hall!"

"Do you want to call Qingying?"

"Go ahead and call her. She just finished her retreat. Besides, this matter is related to her."

"it is good!"

Soon, seven figures appeared in the Tuoba family's meeting hall.

The main seat was occupied by the clan leader Tuoba Wufeng, and on his left sat one of the elders, Tuoba Wuying, who was also a formation master.

Sitting next to Tuoba Wuying was Tuoba Qingtong, one of the tribesmen who had just returned from Yunmengze.

Tuoba Qingtong was about thirty years old, with sharp eyebrows, bright eyes and a respectful expression.

Beside him was another young man, who seemed younger than him, with a round face and a normal complexion.

Zhao Qingshan, formerly a commoner under the Tuoba family, was fortunately discovered to have spiritual roots and was accepted as a disciple by the Tuoba family.

On the right side of Tuoba Wufeng sat an old woman who was about sixty years old.

Tuoba Wugou, the second elder of the Tuoba family, is an expert in alchemy.

Sitting next to her was a gorgeous girl in her twenties.

She was wearing a lake green palace dress, with an oval face and skin as smooth as a baby's. Her soft hair fluttered gently behind her, almost reaching the ground.

His entire body exuded a strong aura of water spirit, and even the air around him was slightly damp.

Tuoba Qingying is the strongest and most talented person among the younger generation of the Tuoba family!
Sitting next to Tuoba Qingying was a little girl who looked about twelve or thirteen years old.

She looked young, but she sat upright, trying hard to remain dignified, and her chubby face was flushed.

These seven people are the cultivators who still exist in the Tuoba family today!

The Tuoba family has been passed down for more than three thousand years, and its bloodline is still pure, relying on intermarriage within the family.

If maintained in this way, the offspring born will not only have a high probability of possessing spiritual roots, but will also be able to strengthen the blood relationship between clan members.

Among the seven Qi training cultivators in the entire Tuoba family, only Zhao Qingshan is an outsider.

But he also married a woman from the Tuoba family and became a daughter-in-law of the Tuoba family. In the entire Yunmengze, the Tuoba family is the king!
"Qingtong."

Tuoba Wufeng took the lead and said, "Tell me what you found out."

"Yes, uncle."

Tuoba Qingtong said respectfully: "I have been checking for more than a month, passing through Jiangzhou, Xuzhou, Yuezhou and other places, and I have not found any changes."

"I asked a few of my peers, and they said there was no strange phenomenon in the world."

"But I heard a few mundane things. Maybe they are related to the increase in the richness of spiritual energy?"

"Oh? What's the matter?"

Tuoba Qingtong continued, "The current Dayu royal family has a leader who has revived the country. He not only suppressed the rebellion of refugees in the country, but also drove out the invading Wu Kingdom and even occupied two states of Wu Kingdom."

"Oh?"

Tuoba Wufeng became interested: "How could such a person come out of the Zheng family? It seems that he still has some luck, but why do you say that he is related to the revival of spiritual energy?"

Tuoba Qingtong said: "I got the news that the royal family of Dayu originally only had one Xiantian realm warrior, the commander of the Longxiang Army, Xu Mujun."

"This person is from the military. He is very powerful in close combat and has 100,000 Dragon Flying Army soldiers backing him. He is the most powerful warlord in Dayu today."

"About four years ago, Dayu Prime Minister Yang Xuansu plotted a rebellion and secretly invited Huo Lingzi, the deputy owner of the Yie Tower, to take action. However, he was defeated by Huo Lingzi and is still recovering from his injuries in secret!"

"Fire Spirit?"

Tuoba Wufeng frowned and said, "This man is the same as me, a ninth-level Qi training cultivator! This Xu Mujun was able to seriously injure Huo Lingzi, it seems that he must have used some tricks!"

"go on."

"Yes!"

Tuoba Qingtong continued, "Since then, Xiantian Realm warriors have emerged in Dayu like mushrooms after rain. According to my investigation, there are at least four Xiantian Realm warriors in the capital now."

"There is one in Nanyue County."

"There is one at Tianlong Temple in Jiangzhou."

"Tianlong Temple? The place where the independent cultivator Fayuan is?"

"Yes." Tuoba Qingtong said, "But I heard that Fayuan was invited by His Majesty Dayu several months ago to go to the capital to give lectures. The Xiantian Realm warrior should be another person."

"I see. Anything else?"

"Have!"

"There is another Xiantian realm warrior in the East Sea."

"A Xiantian realm warrior has also appeared in the Shushan Sword Sect of Shuzhou!"

"I heard there are several in Wu State as well."

"Anyway, since four years ago, the number of Xiantian Realm warriors in this world has been increasing, and there are at least more than ten of them."

"A warrior in the Xiantian realm..."

Tuoba Wufeng murmured, "Martial arts can reach the level of the gods. A martial artist who has reached the highest level of cultivation is no weaker than a cultivator like me in the Qi training stage."

"Could it be that something unexpected really happened, causing the number of Xiantian Realm warriors in the world to increase?"

"The entrance to a hidden secret realm collapsed? The small Xumi world merged? Or did an ancient sect appear?"

"No matter what, Dayu Capital is the source of the incident. It seems we have to send someone to investigate."

Tuoba Wugui on the side suddenly said: "Patriarch, do you remember that last year Dayu sent a team of envoys to marry a woman from my Tuoba family as a concubine, but we refused."

"Elder, Zheng of Dayu is just a mortal. How can he be qualified to marry a woman from the Tuoba family?"

Tuoba Qingtong suddenly said, looking at Tuoba Qingying with fiery eyes.

"Also, during this period of time, a large number of soldiers were suddenly stationed outside of Yunmeng Lake, and many people were secretly searching for the map of Yunmeng Lake. It seems that Emperor Zhengyong was behind this!"

"I know."

Tuoba Wufeng said indifferently: "Now that the immortal road in heaven and earth is cut off, every descendant of cultivators may have spiritual roots, and they must not be allowed to flow out at will."

"So what if the Zheng family of Dayu is weak? As long as we are willing, the royal family will be no match for us!"

"What's more, the Wang family contacted me a few days ago."

"Wang family?"

"The Wang family that helped Zheng establish his country?"

"What does he want us for?"

Tuoba Qingtong suddenly said, "By the way, Grandfather, I have also found out a piece of news. The Wang family of Datong was exterminated by Emperor Zhengyong!"

“No wonder, the Datong Wang family is only the prominent branch of the Wang family, and their real clansmen are hiding in the dark. No wonder they suddenly contacted me and wanted to overthrow the Dayu world!”

Tuoba Wufeng murmured, "Could it be that the capital of Dayu is really related to the revival of spiritual energy this time?"

At this time, Tuoba Qingying suddenly stood up and said in a clear voice: "Uncle, I'm a little tired. I'll go down first."

"Qingying... Never mind. You can go down now. You have already consolidated your realm."

"promise!"

Tuoba Qingying stepped back, and grabbed Tuoba Lingyun's little ear with one hand and pulled her down.

"Oh, Auntie, please slow down. My ears hurt. Can't I just walk away?"

After watching the two women leave, everyone in the hall looked a little strange.

Tuoba Wuying hesitated and asked, "Patriarch?"

"It doesn't matter."

Tuoba Wufeng said: "Qingying is a natural spiritual root with amazing talent. She is the root of the future prosperity of our Tuoba family."

"She doesn't like these mundane things and is devoted to Taoism. Let her be."

“No matter what, I will find out the source of this spiritual energy and keep it in my Yunmengze!”

“Even if I have to use the blood sacrifice formation, I will still be able to intercept this spiritual energy from heaven and earth!”

"Blood Sacrifice Formation... Patriarch?"

"Hehehe..."

Tuoba Wufeng sneered, "The Wang family is secretly doing something, they must have contacted countless people, why can't we secretly get involved?"

"They are just mortals. After decades of unrest, a group of people will die, but another group will appear every few decades."

"Qingtong, send a message to the disciples from other clans, asking them to secretly cooperate with the Wang family in starting an uprising. I want to see what the Zheng clan of Dayu is up to!"

"Yes, Grandpa!"
