Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Gambling Contract
Saying that it was too late, Cheng Lu shouted violently: "Want to run?!" Cheng Lu was stunned, and a tsunami-like spiritual power erupted from the sole of his shoe and swept towards the door. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info saw that the spiritual power was surging like a white wave, and it slammed into the door, and the door of the Sword Pavilion immediately "snapped" and popped up, and then the two doors closed together and closed with a "bang".
The moment the door closed, the ten-square unicorn egg happened to hit the door and was knocked back for some distance.
The door was two solid stone doors, and the Ten Directions Qilin Egg was not able to break through the stone door for the time being, so it had to be blocked inside the door. Seeing that he couldn't escape, the ten-sided unicorn egg obediently lay on the ground, motionless.
Cheng Lu breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately he closed the door in time, otherwise this cunning ten-party unicorn egg would probably have slipped out.
Cheng Lu picked up the egg, but saw that this guy seemed to be asleep again, cold and motionless. It was so unexpectedly tumbling just now, and at this moment it seemed to have become a sleeping stone.
The guy regained his composure.
These ten-square unicorn eggs are likely to be sleeping one second ago, and the next second they are like long legs. This is the demon beast that ranks fourth on the list of demon beasts, and has intelligence that is close to or even surpasses that of humans.
"Mer'er, if you can domesticate this ten-sided unicorn egg, then it must be unimaginable to help you. You have to put it away and don't let it run away. But you have to remember one thing, if one day, this ten-sided unicorn egg is so strong that you can't control it, when it's time to give it up, you still have to give it up. Cheng Lu said earnestly.
"Got it, grandpa. Cheng Mo put away the ten-party unicorn eggs and nodded solemnly.
The grandfather and grandson packed up the Demon Beast Record, put it back on the bookshelf, and then left the Sword Pavilion.
......
On the way back, Cheng Mo kept his head down and didn't speak. When he reached a fork in the road, Cheng Mo suddenly pulled Cheng Lu's clothes and said in a low voice: "Grandpa, I have something to ask you." ”
Cheng Lu heard that his tone was a little abnormal, and he couldn't help but take a closer look at him, but he saw that a trace of forbearance flashed on the child's delicate little face, as if he was suppressing some emotions.
Listening to his tone and looking at his expression, Cheng Lu also guessed that it was something related to Cheng Zixiao. Sure enough, I only heard Cheng Mo say in a deep voice: "About my father." ”
Cheng Lu sighed, since this kid has heard the beginning, he must know the end.
"You ask. Cheng Lu nodded.
With Cheng Lu's permission, Cheng Mo's question, which had been holding in his heart for several days, almost erupted. He took a deep breath, and then he controlled his emotions, and he asked in a low voice, "Earlier, Cheng Rui said that my father was a murderer...... Is what he said true?"
After Cheng Mo asked, he didn't even dare to look up at Cheng Lu, but looked away a little evasively, for fear that Cheng Lu would give an affirmative answer.
Although the young man in front of him is stubborn and arrogant, he is still sensitive in his heart, especially at this age. Perhaps Cheng Rui's irresponsible casual words can stir up the waves in the child's heart, which is enough to make him think hard for several days.
Cheng Lu was silent for a moment, then gently pulled Cheng Mo's shoulder, and looked directly at the young man in front of him who was two heads shorter. Cheng Mo obviously felt the other party's undodging attitude and undodging eyes, which made Cheng Mo can't help but raise his head and look at Cheng Lu's eyes.
Cheng Lu continued: "If you want to know about your father, then you have to make a bet with me." If you win, I'll tell you about your father. If you lose, then I'm sorry, I'll have to keep it a secret. ”
"What bet?" Cheng Mo blurted out.
Cheng Lu said: "You are now twelve years old, and your cultivation is the fifth order of the spirit seed stage, so let's bet on whether you can break through to the second order of the entry stage before the age of sixteen." ”
Cheng Mo was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Break through to the entry period before the age of sixteen? or the second order?! If you don't want to tell me, forget it, why bother to embarrass me with bets!"
Cheng Lu took a deep breath and looked deeply into the young man's eyes, "Do you think this is an impossible thing? Then let me tell you, your father did it." A month before he turned sixteen, he entered the second stage of the entry period and was admitted to the Great Zhou Academy, becoming the youngest entry stage cultivator on the Tianshu Continent. ”
Cheng Mo didn't expect his father to have such a glorious history, and his eyes widened in surprise.
"Mo'er, you have a very good foundation now, you have already entered the fifth order of the spirit seed stage at the age of twelve, if you maintain this cultivation speed, I believe that it will not be difficult for you to enter the second order of the entry stage at the age of sixteen. It takes a little effort to find out what happened, and I won't tell a story for nothing, especially with such a secret past in our family. Cheng Lu said in a low voice.
Cheng Mo pondered for a moment, as if trying to calm the agitation in his heart.
From the mouths of other Cheng family members, Cheng Mo vaguely knew that his father was a genius, but he didn't know what kind of genius he was. Now I heard Cheng Lu mention that his father was promoted to the second rank of the entry period before he was sixteen years old, which is indeed a speed that mortals can't reach.
There are a total of nine levels of spirit seed stage.
The ninth level goes up further, and it will break through to the first stage of the entry period.
You must know that entering the entry stage from the ninth order of the spirit seed stage is the most difficult step. This is equivalent to a huge level, and it is not something that can be broken through by simply piling up spiritual power, and every time the realm breaks through, it also requires some understanding and root bones.
Some people tend to spend more than a year to storm this level. If you are unlucky, you may not be able to break through for the rest of your life.
And Cheng Zixiao broke through to the second order of the entry period before the age of sixteen, which is quite against the sky!
"How is it? Do you accept this challenge?" Cheng Lu asked, "As Zixiao's child, don't you think you should prove anything to your grandfather?"
The corners of Cheng Mo's mouth set up a stubborn arc, "Kala" clenched his fists, and he said in a deep voice: "I accept it." ”
Looking at the young man's firm and courageous eyes, Cheng Lu nodded and smiled very gratifyingly.
"Haha, okay, then grandpa will promise you, as long as you break through to the entry period before the age of sixteen, grandpa will tell you everything he knows, word for word. Cheng Lu promised.
Cheng Mo nodded lightly, looking at a bamboo forest in the distance at the fork in the road, and felt that the fighting spirit in his whole body was burning.
"Grandpa, then I'll go to practice now. Cheng Mo said softly.
"Well, there's no hurry. Since you are going to cultivate, then Grandpa will teach you how to cultivate this time in order to gain faster speed. Sharpen the knife and chop the wood, let's go back to the Sword Pavilion again, and I'll help you pick out a few books. Cheng Lu said with a smile.
"Okay, grandpa!" Cheng Mo nodded, and then took the lead and walked in the direction of the Sword Pavilion.
Looking at the young man's determined back, the corners of Cheng Lu's mouth hooked up a hint of an old but happy smile.
"Zixiao, you have a good son, I hope he won't let us down. ”
