Chapter 14: The Bloodline Test
"Young master, the master told you to go to his study to see him. ”
As soon as Sun Xiaofei returned home, he met the old housekeeper McCala, at the door, and was stopped by him to speak.
"Oh, I see, thank you, Uncle McCara. I'm leaving. As soon as Sun Xiaofei heard that it was his father Philp looking for him, he said goodbye to the old butler McCala, and hurriedly walked to Philp's study.
Sun Xiaofei walked outside Philp's study, suddenly slowed down his steps, walked slowly to the door, and then looked straight, stretched out his hand and knocked lightly on the door.
"Who is it?"
Philp's voice came from the room, it seemed that he was in the room, and when he heard Sun Xiaofei's knock on the door, he asked.
"Father, I'm here. Sun Xiaofei replied in a deep voice.
"Ryan, you're back, come in. When Philp heard Sun Xiaofei's voice, he seemed a little happy, and hurriedly called him in.
"Yes. Sun Xiaofei answered, pushed open the door and walked in.
Philp sat at the back of a table, which was quite old and had signs of Philp's frequent rubbing. There were some books and pen and paper on the top of the table, and Philp was looking at Sun Xiaofei with a smile on his face, motioning for him to find a seat next to him and sit down.
After Sun Xiaofei sat down, he looked at Philp and asked, "Father, Uncle McCara said you were looking for me, what is the matter?"
"Well, you come with me. Philp nodded and said. He stood up, and before he knew it, he pressed the mechanism there, and the bookcase behind him suddenly and silently slid open, revealing a deep dark passage. Philp glanced at Sun Xiaofei, and then took the lead and walked in first.
Sun Xiaofei felt a little surprised, he didn't expect that there was such a secret channel mechanism in Philp's study. But when you think about it, it's relieved. On this continent, people with a little ability will secretly set up this kind of secret passage to avoid disasters or hide some secrets.
Sun Xiaofei didn't think too much about it, because Philip had already walked in, and he immediately followed behind and walked into this dark and gloomy dark passage. At the top of the dark passage, some moonstones were embedded at intervals to illuminate this dark passage, and Philp, who was walking in front, stretched his figure very long under the soft moonstone illumination.
Sun Xiaofei looked at a dark passage, which seemed a little narrow and long, and walking in it made people feel the slightest shade. With his eyesight, he couldn't see how long this dark passage was, as long as there was a trace of light, Sun Xiaofei would be able to use his spiritual power, exert his microscopic vision ability, and see the dim environment around him clearly.
Philp walked in front of the dark passage, silent all the way, just keeping his walking speed and walking forward. Sun Xiaofei didn't speak, he knew that Philip would never bring him here for no reason, and there must be something for him to know. All along, he didn't know that his father would have such a deep secret. Today, it seems that Philp is going to tell him this secret, and Sun Xiaofei can't help but feel a little excited when he thinks of this. He was looking forward to what secret Philp would tell him.
The dark passage was not very long, and after walking for about a few minutes, they came to a wide stone chamber. This stone room is not much smaller than the hall of his house, just because it is hidden deep underground, the light is a little darker, and before following Philip to the stone room, Sun Xiaofei saw some branches in the dark passage, and he didn't know where it led, so he naturally couldn't explore it under the current situation. Unconsciously, I came to the outside of this wide stone room, and saw Philp very skillfully open the stone door of the stone room.
"Let's go inside. Philp said and walked into the stone room first, Sun Xiaofei observed it, and also walked into the large stone room.
As soon as Sun Xiaofei entered the door, he looked up and saw a white light in front of him, his eyes were squinted, and he used his True Yuan Force to adjust to the current environment, and saw the scene in front of him clearly.
I saw that in the wide stone room, there was a huge long case, on which were enshrined dense and innumerable spiritual tablets, and in front of these spiritual tablets, a huge copper tripod was placed, which was rubbed with burned incense ash. The spiritual plaque here has become dark and shiny under the influence of incense over the years, and Sun Xiaofei gazed at it, feeling a vicissitudes of ancient breath coming to his face. Philp was lighting the incense candles, and looking at his pious face, this place was absolutely very important to him.
Sun Xiaofei saw that the stone room was surrounded by a kind of inlay, called the Deep Sea Night Pearl. This kind of night pearl that can emit bright light is very rare, but it is now placed here as a very ordinary object, just to illuminate the stone chamber. Above the long case where the spirit position card is placed, there is also a very quaint looking wooden box, the lid of the box is covered with dust, it seems that it has not been opened for many years, Sun Xiaofei is a little curious, what is it, can be placed on the top of the spirit position card, which makes people feel a little incredible.
"Ryan, you kneel!" Philp took the incense and handed it to Sun Xiaofei, and then ordered him to kneel down and pay homage to the ancestors of the family.
Sun Xiaofei took Xiang Yiyan and knelt down, now his identity is Philp's son, not Sun Xiaofei in his previous life, no matter how he was born in Philp's family, it is also a matter of course to bow to his ancestors. Under Philp's gaze, Sun Xiaofei officially bowed three times and bowed nine times to the spiritual throne tablet on the long case, this kind of grand worship, he would only do this on the sect ceremony of the Three Immortals Sect.
After Sun Xiaofei finished worshiping his ancestors, Philip said to Sun Xiaofei with a solemn face: "Ryan, do you know what kind of place this is?"
"Father, this is the family's mourning hall for ancestors?" Sun Xiaofei hesitated for a moment and said.
"Yes, this is the ancestral mourning hall of our Dagus family, and every spiritual tablet here is our ancestor. Philp nodded, looked at the spiritual tablet on the long case with a solemn face, and said. His eyes focused on the wooden box on the top of the long case, and his eyes looked complicated.
"Hmm. Sun Xiaofei replied and did not continue to speak. He knew that Philp would go on to say what he wanted to know.
Philp walked to the top of the long case from the side, and gently took down the wooden box that had been placed on it for an unknown number of years, Sun Xiaofei looked at him with a stern expression, knowing that this wooden box that did not know the origin of the case must be very important to him.
Philp took out a piece of cloth, carefully wiped the wooden box clean, and said to Sun Xiaofei in a low tone: "Ryan, do you know? Our Dagus family used to be the most famous family on the mainland. Because we have a sword master in our family!" Philp's eyes lit up with a look of pride as he said the word Sword Master.
"Sword Saint?" Sun Xiaofei was a little shocked when he heard this. I couldn't help but think in my heart, why did a family with a Sword Saint fall into such a way now? His current family is not a big family in Gransdy City, let alone have a place on the entire continent?
Sun Xiaofei has lived in this continent for so many years, and the people who know this continent are mainly cultivating fighting qi and magic, and the cultivation of fighting qi is mainly based on practicing kendo. All the cultivation systems in the Via Continent are divided into nine stages according to their cultivation level. Those who practice magic are divided into magic apprentices, junior magicians, intermediate magicians, advanced magicians, great magicians, magicians, magicians, magicians, archmagicians, and holy magicians. Swordsmen who cultivate Dou Qi are divided into apprentice swordsmen, junior swordsmen, intermediate swordsmen, senior swordsmen, swordsmen, great swordsmen, sword sects, sword emperors, and sword saints. Cultivators who have cultivated to the Holy Rank will have their own realm, and the powerhouse who has the realm is called the Sacred Realm powerhouse, and it is the most powerful being on this continent. Cultivators who break through the Holy Rank are all collectively referred to as God-level powerhouses. The god-level powerhouse has become a legendary myth for the current Via Continent.
Therefore, the powerhouse who has reached the Holy Rank is already the realm pursued by countless cultivators, and the Saint Rank powerhouse is the most powerful existence that countless people in this continent look up to. Sun Xiaofei was naturally shocked when he heard Philp say that his family actually had a Saint-level powerhouse.
"Ryan, you open this box. Philp handed the wooden box that had been wiped clean on his hand to Sun Xiaofei, and then said to him.
Sun Xiaofei took the wooden box, and found that the wooden box was quite heavy, and he opened the wooden box that had been sealed for a long time according to Philp's instructions. The lid opened, revealing a dull long sword inside, about a foot long, with a wide blade, a sleek head, and some grooves on either side near the handle, which seemed to have some special purpose. On the entire sword body, there are some strange secret patterns depicted, I don't know what it does.
"This sword is called the Sunset Sword, and it is the twelve inheritance swords left by the ancestors, and when the ancestors were alive, our clan prospered. However, when the ancestor accidentally fell from the Sword God Realm, those who coveted my family came to snatch my family's inheritance techniques and battle swords. ”
"In a matter of years, there were only three of the twelve inherited swords left. Later, one of the ancestors of the family retreated from the world and set up an ancestral precept that as long as the family does not have the bloodline of the disciples in the future and can awaken the war sword, he can only go incognito and run the business road to avoid the pursuit of the enemy. Originally, I wanted to wait for you to perform the rite of passage before testing the power of your bloodline. However, now that you are leaving the family, this can only be done in advance. Ryan, pick up the sword in front of you..."There was a fervent anticipation in Philp's eyes, and after so many years of waiting, he finally waited for this moment.
"Yes, father!" Sun Xiaofei knew how much Philip expected of him, and he held the sword in the box with some nervousness.
The two stared at the Sunset Sword tightly, the battle sword didn't move at first, and after a while, Sun Xiaofei felt a heat all over his body, and there was a strange power that connected him with the war sword. The secret pattern of the sword began to gradually become brighter, and the brightness of the light even exceeded the light of the night pearl of the deep sea embedded around the stone chamber.
"It's work...!, my Daguz family revival is hopeful. Hahaha...!" Philp looked at the sunset sword in Sun Xiaofei's hand, flashing with a strange light, and said with excitement on his face.
