Chapter 314 Level 2 Puppet Beast

In such a tense atmosphere, more than half a month passed. Strangely, Huanglongfang was always very peaceful, and no monks from the Tianhai League came to attack as everyone imagined.

Huanglongfang finally settled down on the surface. The people responsible for guarding the market gradually relaxed their tense nerves and lived a relaxing life.

In addition to daily practice and taking turns to guard the gate of the market, Song Qingming and other foundation-building monks did not have other specific things to do, unlike in Qinghefang where they had to manage trivial matters in the market.

Song Qingming had more time, and often wandered around in several shops opened by Lingyin Sect in the market, because there were no shops opened by other monks in the market. All the monks stationed here who wanted to purchase or exchange materials with merit could only go to these shops opened by Lingyin Sect.

After Song Qingming came to Huanglongfang and stayed for a while, he found that there were many special spiritual objects here, which were not available in Weiguo. Some low-level spiritual objects that could be seen everywhere in Weiguo market were not found here.

There are many puppet beasts in the market of Lu State, such as the very rare puppet beasts in Wei State. There are not only first-level puppet beasts, but also second-level puppet beasts, which are very rare in the whole Wei State. They don’t seem to be rare spiritual objects here. There are several second-level puppet beasts in the inconspicuous Huanglongfang. However, these puppet beasts are not owned by individuals, but are uniformly deployed by Lingyin Sect to help guard the market. They belong to the assets of Lingyin Sect.

After staying in Huanglongfang for a while, Song Qingming gradually understood all the guarding forces of this market. When he first saw a team of guard monks in the market, training with a second-level puppet beast on the city wall, Song Qingming was still surprised.

Later, after Song Qingming deliberately inquired about it, he learned that in addition to Liu Wenguan and other foundation-building cultivators, there were four level-two puppet beasts in Huanglongfang to help guard the market. The last time Huanglongfang was attacked, if it weren't for these puppet beasts helping to contain the enemy at the critical moment, even Liu Wenguan, a ninth-level foundation-building master, would have found it difficult to find an opportunity to use the third-level spiritual talisman that determined the fate of the entire Huanglongfang when facing the siege of many enemies.

Although an ordinary level-two puppet beast has only half the strength of a foundation-building cultivator of the same level, facing the desperate attack of a level-two puppet beast, it can sometimes make the cultivator of the same level who does not understand the characteristics of the puppet beast flustered for a while. This kind of spiritual object is very useful in the battle between cultivators of the same level.

When Song Qingming was in Weiguo before, he always wanted a second-level puppet beast. Unfortunately, after he established his foundation, he only saw a special second-level puppet beast at the Tiandan League auction. At that time, he was short of money and could only watch others bid for it. Later, he no longer lacked these spiritual stones, but unfortunately he never saw similar spiritual objects again.

Come to Luguo for support. Now as long as you have enough merits, you can immediately go to the Lingyin Sect's Good Merit Hall to exchange for a second-level puppet beast. There are not only second-level puppet beasts there, but even if you want a third-level puppet beast, Lingyin Sect can also take it out, provided that you can earn so many merits, many of which are exchanged for life.

All the spiritual objects in the Lingyin Sect's Good Merit Hall can only be exchanged for a certain amount of merits. Now Song Qingming has far less merits to exchange for spiritual objects such as second-level puppet beasts, so he can only sigh in despair.

When Song Qingming was still in the Qi Refining Stage, he had operated several first-level puppet beasts. He was quite interested in this kind of spiritual creature. However, after his cultivation level broke through to the Foundation Establishment Stage, the puppet beasts in his hands became less and less helpful to him. Later, after Song Qingming lost the giant ape puppet beast he had been carrying with him in the Floating Cloud Mountains, he never used this kind of spiritual creature again.

As long as the spiritual consciousness of the puppet beast is strong enough, it can be of great help to the cultivator. In the general battle between cultivators, if you can suddenly control a puppet beast of the same level to join the battle, it is enough to affect the balance of victory or defeat.

In addition to the Foundation Establishment cultivators, the second-level puppet beast can also be controlled by three or four Qi Refining cultivators together. If you can get a second-level puppet beast here and put it in the family, it can also greatly improve the overall combat effectiveness of the Qi Refining cultivators under the Song family.

Although Song Qingming had this idea in mind, a second-level puppet beast would require at least 5,000 spirit stones on the market, and the merits required in the Lingyin Sect's Good Merit Pavilion would naturally not be too low. Just relying on his one-year stay in Huanglongfang, if he did not have great merits, it would be absolutely impossible to exchange for such a level of spiritual objects.

Fortunately, there was still nearly a year, and Song Qingming could still ask where he could directly buy such spiritual objects. If it really didn't work, he could only wait until he had a chance to come to Lu State again in the future.

In this way, Song Qingming stayed in Huanglongfang for half a year. Although he encountered several letters of help sent by the Tianhai League's infiltrated monks to attack the convoys transporting supplies, when they rushed to the scene to rescue, the other party had either robbed and ran away, or chose to retreat after seeing that they could not attack for a long time. Song Qingming and others had no chance to fight with the other party's foundation-building monks.

As for Huanglongfang, since Song Qingming and others came, there has been no war here. The group of Qi-refining monks who came with them to guard here all seemed very excited. They were lucky to be assigned to such a safe place.

In contrast, on the battlefield of the front line of Lu State, the two sides have fought several times in the past six months. Although there was no loss of Jindan-level combat power, the losses of low-level monks such as foundation building and Qi-refining on both sides were not small. The high-level leaders of Lingyin Sect and Tianhai League did not make any major moves during this period. They just maintained the front line. From time to time, the two sides found an excuse to fight, but in the end, they could not get a result. They just consumed a lot of low-level monks and supplies.

Song Qingming had no objection to such a peaceful life now. It didn't matter even if he returned to Wei State empty-handed, as long as he could save his life.

However, Cao Rongxue, who came with him, was a little unwilling. She seemed to want to make a contribution. Every time, whether it was to support the battle or to escort supplies, she was the one who rushed to the front. This made Song Qingming, who had a general attitude towards the task, a little embarrassed. Fortunately, there was Zhao Mengzhen who had similar ideas as him. Both of them prioritized saving their lives, and many times their ideas could quickly come together.

One day, Song Qingming had just returned from the shift at the city gate of Fangshi. Before he returned to his cave, he suddenly received a message from all the cultivators to gather.
