Chapter Forty-Eight: Jin Lin'er's long-lost grandfather
"What have you been busy with lately?" Zangtian couldn't help but ask back in the East Courtyard.
"Look up something from many years ago. Jin Lin'er said solemnly, it seems that the results of the investigation are not very good.
"Any clues?" asked Zangtian.
"Well, a little, but it's not quite clear. Jin Lin'er said.
"Need help?" asked Zangtian.
"I'll tell you when I need to. Jin Lin'er smiled, her heart warm.
"When are you going back to the Purple Hanging Sect?" Jin Lin'er asked, feeling a little reluctant.
"Wait a few days, there's always been a feeling like something is going to happen lately. Zangtian said, not knowing what he was waiting for.
............
There is a very hidden cave in the lonely peak to the south of the Jin family, and there are many formations arranged in the cave.
Jin Chengwu stood in the cave, and the whole person lost his former uprightness and had a more cold temperament.
Opposite him were two chains buried deep in the mountain, with intricate runes flashing on them, and an old man tied to the other end.
The old man's hair was gray, his face was wrinkled, and his skinny appearance seemed to have no flesh and blood on his body, and his whole person was entangled in a dead air.
"What are you doing here?" said the old man hoarsely, speaking with a lot of effort but an indescribable hatred.
"Big brother. Jin Chengwu called.
"Do you still have the face to call me big brother?" the old man sneered, very disdainful.
"You know, I had to do it too. Jin Chengwu said: "You should understand me." ”
"Understand you?" the old man looked even more disdainful: "A person who does not hesitate to sell his family, bloodline and even soul for the sake of strength." ”
"I didn't know it at the time, and it was too late to know. Jin Chengwu also regretted it a little.
"I know you'll be able to resist temptation?" said the old man's eyes, a sad look.
A cultivator may resist the temptation of beauty and wealth, but he will definitely not be able to resist the temptation of strength, and his strength will not be advanced in ten years, a hundred years, or even a thousand years.
The pathos in the old man's eyes greatly stimulated Jin Chengwu, and he became a little angry.
"Why can't you understand me?" Jin Chengwu said irritably: "You are so, so are Chen'er and Wan'er, and now even Lin'er has to investigate that matter." ”
"What did you say?" Hearing Jin Lin'er's name, the old man was excited, Chen'er and Wan'er were Jin Lin'er's parents.
"Lin'er is also starting to investigate that matter now, you are forcing me to a dead end. Jin Chengwu said resentfully.
"You have already killed Chen'er and Wan'er, and now you want to kill the little phoenix?" the old man struggled, unable to break free from the chains.
"I'm sorry...... Big brother, I can even sell my soul, what else can't I sell? Kim Sung-woo smiled evilly, he was mocking himself.
It's really pathetic for a person who even looks down on himself.
It is in front of Jin Chengwen that he can completely open his heart and get a trace of spiritual salvation.
"You can't touch the little phoenix. The old man shouted with all his might, but Jin Chengwu's figure had disappeared into the cave.
A few more days have passed, and Jin Lin'er is still very busy, she can't see her figure all day, and she doesn't know what she is investigating, but her eyebrows are getting more and more solemn.
Zangtian cultivated quietly in his room, but the feeling of uneasiness became stronger and stronger, as if something was happening.
It was another late night, and Zangtian, who was cultivating, opened his eyes, disappeared into the room, and hid his body all the way to the lonely peak in the south.
There is a formation in front of the lonely peak, but it is not difficult for Zangtian to sneak in, and he found the empty space of the formation with his delusional eyes, and Zangtian turned into a catkins and floated in, using the body method of "Willow Catkins with the Wind".
The divine consciousness came out of the body, and easily found the cave where Jin Chengwu was deliberately hidden.
Zangtian cautiously walked in.
It was only after passing through the dark passage of tens of meters that the line of sight became wider.
The cave was very simple, with only two chains and an old man who was so dry that he didn't know if he was dead.
The old man is not dead, Zangtian knows it in his heart, although the death qi on his body is very heavy.
Drifted over cautiously, without making any sound, and even hid his breath.
The two chains were engraved with formations, buried deep in the flesh and blood of the old man, absorbing his bloodline, cultivation, and vitality all the time, and spreading to unknown places through the formations at the other end of the chains.
"What a poisonous formation. ”
After a glance at Zangtian, he understood the role of the formation, and also understood why the old man was entangled in death qi.
At the peak, it should be the strength of the late stage of breaking the void, but now he has no spiritual power on his body, which is why he can't find out why he can't find out when he is standing in front of him.
"Who are you, why did Jin Chengwu imprison you here?" asked Zangtian.
Hearing the voice, the old man opened his cloudy eyes.
"Jin Chengwen, you are ...... again Who?" Jin Chengwen opened his mouth and said with difficulty after a long time.
"Jin Chengwen?" Zangtian thought about it suspiciously, this name was very familiar, and he always felt that he had heard it somewhere.
"Isn't that Jin Lin'er's grandfather who has been missing for many years?" Zangtian remembered.
"Are you Jin Lin'er's grandfather?Jin Chengwu's eldest brother?" Zangtian asked in surprise.
"Do you know Little Phoenix?" asked Jin Chengwen happily.
There was no doubt about Zangtian's identity at all, because Jin Chengwu would not let anyone appear here, and the young man in front of him must have come in unintentionally.
"Lin'er and I are friends, very good friends. Zangtian said.
"Then you go quickly, go and tell Lin'er never to investigate that matter. Jin Chengwen urged: "You hurry up, there are formations everywhere here, touch the formations, Jin Chengwu will come over soon." ”
"Don't worry, if he found out, he would have come over long ago. Zangtian said, with the realm of Jin Chengwu, it doesn't take time to get here with a stick of incense.
Jin Chengwen put his mind at ease, he was already the strength to break through the virtual realm, and he knew Jin Chengwu even more, but now he was just tortured and fearful.
"Why did Jin Chengwu imprison you here?" asked Zangtian, and that was the main question.
"For the power of the bloodline. Jin Chengwen said decadently.
"The bloodline of the Golden Crow?" Zangtian asked.
"Yes. Jin Chengwen sighed and explained: "Our Jin family is an ancient family, known as the descendants of the sun, but now the bloodline is very thin. ”
"What's the use of extracting the power of your bloodline?" Zangtian asked, the Golden Crow bloodline in the Jin family's bloodline is already very pitiful, and it can be said that it is no longer compatible with the Golden Crow.
"In order to condense the Golden Crow True Flame, the Golden Crow True Flame can incinerate everything in the world. Jin Chengwen said with tears in his eyes: "The fourth child has already broken his poisonous hands." ”
"I see. "Zangtian understood, in order to obtain the power of the Golden Crow True Flame, it was really hateful to be able to do this to his relatives.
"You go, tell Lin'er to leave the family and go as far as possible. Kim Sung-moon closed his eyes in despair.
"I'll find a way to get you out. Zangtian said, since the old man is Jin Lin'er's grandfather, he will not care.
"There's no way. Jin Chengwen said: "Judging from your age, you shouldn't have reached the realm of breaking the void, right?"
"It's true that I haven't arrived, I've just condensed the spirit realm. Zangtian said.
"On the chain is the ancient formation that Jin Chengwu got out of nowhere, even if it is also a strong person who breaks the void, it can't be broken, don't waste your efforts. Kim Sung-moon persuaded.
Zangtian smiled, this is because his cultivation is low.
He really couldn't unravel the ancient formation, but the chain was only a remnant formation, and the effect was less than one-thousandth of the ancient formation.
The Broken Eye opened with all his might, and all his divine consciousness came out and landed on the chains.
"The Spirit Condensation Realm can actually detach the Divine Consciousness from the body?" Jin Chengwen was shocked, only by breaking through the Void Realm could the Divine Soul be condensed, and only in the later stage could the Divine Consciousness be separated from the body, and at the peak of his time, he couldn't do it as easily as Hidden Heaven.
I couldn't help but have a glint of hope in my eyes.
It didn't take long for him to find a flaw in the formation with the cooperation of the Broken Eye and Divine Sense, and Zangtian was not in a hurry to cut off the formation, but simply moved his hands and feet to make it run slowly.
In this way, even if Jin Chengwu found out, he would think that it was caused by the lack of power of Jin Chengwen's bloodline, and he would not suspect that someone had done anything at all.
Feeling that the suction from the chain was weaker, Jin Chengwen was overjoyed.
