Chapter 891: Dark Thunderwood
set off again and arrived at Xuankang Pass.The Snake King and the Yao Wang of the Trapping Machine are waiting for them.And also Bing Han and Xiang Qing, who were invited by Qin Sang.Over the past fe..."Fang, Shimei, Zhao, Shidi, please!"
With a smile on his lips, he invited the two of them in.
This Zhao Songqiao is also a person with a lively mind.
Hua Shen Ting Fang said that after she joined the sect, Zhao Songqiao paid a lot of attention to her and frequently visited her. At first, Fang Ting was also wary of this old man, but later she saw that he was sincere and had helped her with some small favors. Since he was also her senior brother from the same sect, she no longer guarded against him so much.
She had casually mentioned to Zhao Songqiao once about becoming a disciple of the Yin Yang lineage of Lan Dou Sect. Unexpectedly, Zhao Songqiao brought it up and asked her to help introduce him.
Fang Ting was not easy to refuse, last month when she came over, she brought Zhao Songqiao along as well.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
I've seen this kind of thing before, many times, in my previous incarnations.
As a wandering cultivator, Zhao Songqiao had diligently cultivated to the thirteenth level of the Qi Refining Stage, tempering his mind and spirit through countless trials and tribulations. The transformed being felt no ill will towards Zhao Songqiao's attachment but wouldn't get too close either, maintaining a polite distance.
Three people entered the room and sat down.
After brewing a pot of spirit tea, he looked at the expressions of the two people and took a sip. With a faint smile, he asked: "Shimei Fang, what brings you here this time"
“Senior brother, you can see this too”
Fang Ting's face was full of surprise, but then her nose wrinkled, and a look of displeasure crossed her face.
This made the avatar secretly curious. Fang Ting, a woman with a cheerful personality, rarely showed such a shy demeanor in previous visits. I wonder what caused this change.
"Hehehe, junior sister, all your worries are written all over your face. With Zhang senior brother's eyesight, how could I not see it"
Zhao Songqiao suddenly chuckled and looked at Fang Ting, "If Sister Fang finds it hard to speak up, since this matter started because of my brother, let me talk to Zhang, the younger brother."
"Alright, Zhao Senior Brother, you tell me then."
Fang Ting nodded as if she had let out a breath.
The incarnation merely looked at the two people curiously, without speaking.
Zhao Songqiao sat up straight, his expression tightened slightly, and he said, "Zhang, since you are now a true disciple of Lan Dou Men, you should know about the Dharma Assembly on Dongming Island."
Hua Shen was slightly taken aback, putting down her teacup and asking, "Brother Zhao asked about the Dharma Assembly on Dongming Island Should Yan Miao Ge also send disciples to participate in the assembly"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"That's right, but only true disciples are allowed to participate. As for me, I'm not qualified. During the Dharma Assembly, true disciples from various schools compete in magic duels, especially those who have reached the Foundation Establishment stage. If I could observe it once, it would be very beneficial for me to break through this bottleneck."
Zhao Songqiao sighed, and before his avatar could speak, he changed his tone and said: "Luckily, Junior Sister Fang agreed to take me to Dongming Island during the ceremony and let me observe."
Huan Shen glanced at Fang Ting, not surprised by this. With Fang Ting's status, it was unlikely anyone in Yan Miao Ge would be rude enough to speak against her.
However, when Fang Ting previously mentioned Zhao Songqiao, her tone wasn't particularly close.
The incarnation was a little curious, how did Zhao Songqiao win Fang Ting's heart
"Was it Senior Chen who brought you here"
Fang Ting shook her head, somewhat helplessly saying, "Originally it was Master leading the team to Dongming Island, but Master has been in seclusion..."
He was speechless with laughter.
The Chen surname cultivator and Huayang Laodao had now made an enemy of each other. It was estimated that as long as the Chen surname cultivator did not break through to the middle stage of forming pills, he would not leave the customs and face Huayang Laodao.
"Then congratulations, Senior Brother Zhao! You are the highest cultivator among our disciples this batch. Senior Chen values you greatly, and after the Dharma Assembly, you will surely make a breakthrough in one fell swoop. Among us several people, Senior Brother Zhao should be the first to build the foundation."
He bowed and congratulated them, not asking a word about their achievements.
Zhao Songqiao waved his hands repeatedly, seeing the avatar so slippery, he could only continue: "Junior brother Zhang will be able to break through the tenth layer of the Qi Refining Period soon. Then you'll know how difficult it is to build a foundation. This senior brother has failed countless times over the years and no longer holds any hope. Unexpectedly, I was taken in by Yanmiao Pavilion, this is the only chance of my life! No matter what, I have to try once, please help me, Junior brother Zhang!"
"Seeing Zhao Songqiao's manner like this, I was full of doubts and said, “Senior Brother Zhao, this leaves me completely baffled. I entered the sect no later than you, and my cultivation is not as advanced as yours. What could I possibly help you with”
"Zhang, your senior brother, should know what kind of place Cave-Illuminating Island is, right"
Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!
Zhao Songqiao, disguised and hidden within the confines of a sealed cave dwelling, spoke in a hushed voice. "The existence of this island, Dongming Island, isn't a secret within the Lan Dou Islands. The island possesses unique characteristics; its wood is brimming with spiritual energy, making it particularly conducive to the growth of herbs and spirit trees. It requires no concern from cultivators. When various sects discovered Dongming Island, they divided it amongst themselves. Among them, the Lan Dou sect claimed the largest and most prosperous portion. However, the core area is Longxing Mountain, the center of Dongming Island. Rumor has it that it houses numerous rare herbs, tempting even cultivators at the Dan period stage. This nearly sparked a major conflict. Subsequently, the various sects established a rule, collectively sealing Dongming Island. The seal is only broken during the Dongming Island Dharma Assembly, allowing entry for the gathering of spiritual herbs. Furthermore, it is said that the performance of disciples from each sect during the assembly directly influences the final distribution of the herbs..."

Hua Shen stood quietly, listening to Zhao Songqiao's words.
He had already investigated the situation on Daming Island.
This place opens only once every long time, and it's also a forbidden zone. However, the avatar feels that there is little possibility that it is related to the Bullfighting Peak. Nevertheless, he will still find opportunities to search for something on the island.
Zhao Songqiao said these things, and they were consistent with what he had heard.
The spiritual herbs on Longxing Mountain are too precious for Lan Dou Men to hoard all for themselves. To appease other sects, they hold the Dong Ming Island Dharma Assembly.
"He stared intently at Zhao Songqiao, this guy knew so much about Dongming Island, could he have some plans for Longxing Mountain Longxing Mountain was being watched by various factions, such a daring thing, he wouldn't even dare to do it himself."
To trespass upon Longxing Mountain is no different than courting death!
“…Besides Longxing Mountain, each sect would also cultivate some spiritual trees and herbs within their own territory. It is said that the effects would be much better than those outside.”
At this point, Zhao Songqiao paused, lowered his head slightly, and said, "Your faction has a grove of dark thunderwood on Dongming Island. Since Zhang, as a true disciple and working under the esteemed Jin Yan, must know about it, I would like to ask Zhang to take me into the grove once."
"Darkwood Forest"
He was astonished and asked, "Brother Zhao, you even know this"
Dark Thunderwood is a type of wood as black as ink, shaped like a locust tree. What makes it special is that inside Dark Thunderwood lies a trace of faint Yin Thunder power. It is used to refine magic artifacts like flying swords, and its power can surpass that of ordinary artifacts of the same rank by a few points.
However, this wisp of Yin Thunder power is too weak and thin, only useful for low-rank disciples.
The Dark Thunderwood Forest on Dongming Island is indeed quite extensive. Jin Yan once mentioned that there should be a batch of mature Dark Thunderwood trees on the island.
Zhao Songqiao shook his head repeatedly, "The precious medicinal herbs outside Longxing Mountain have long been harvested and turned into ordinary medicine gardens. What kind of spiritual plants major sects cultivate is no longer a secret."
