Chapter 18: The Beginning and the End
Eternals opened the upper and lower eyelids that were glued together, as if a long, long time had passed, as if they were constantly floating and shaking in a chaotic void space...... Finally, he woke up.
However, he was awakened by pain, by the burning of fire to be exact.
Qian Gu didn't have any strength in his body at the moment, and glanced at the surrounding environment through his sleepy eyes. However, the place that comes into the eye is extremely unfamiliar.
The space is very small and dark. The surrounding "walls" are arched, and from time to time there are a few fires dancing. Through the faint light, the arched "wall" is uneven, as if it is engraved with some text, or some strange sigil. In short, the ages are unrecognizable.
"Where is this?"
Looking at the unfamiliar environment for thousands of years, his mind has not fully recovered until now, and he is still a little confused. He habitually wanted to stand up, but at this moment, there was a sharp pain in his limbs.
"Shhh
Eternal couldn't help but let out a cry of pain, and he also came to his senses.
He instantly remembered that when he was about to rescue Zhu Peng, Liu Cheng appeared, and then he fell into a coma inexplicably, and when he woke up, he found that he had arrived at this place.
Thinking through everything, Eternals quickly perceives the surrounding environment. He found his limbs chained to four chains, and he was suspended in mid-air. There was a flickering flame under him, and if it suddenly rose up, it would burn his feet, and he thought that he was awakened by this flame.
"Flame...... Arched wall ...... Strange characters...... "Eternal wondered in his heart, "What is this place, and where am I?"
"Is it ......?"
Suddenly, the eons thought of a possibility, so they carefully perceived the surrounding environment again. The dark space resembles a gourd, high enough to trap an adult inside, while fire seeps from below. The facts are exactly what he thinks.
"This ...... This turned out to be an alchemy furnace!" At this moment, Qiangu said in surprise: "I am actually in the Dan furnace, what does Liu Cheng want to do to me?"
"Is it because Liu Hao's death made him hate me extremely and want to treat me as a pill to die of death?"
"What the hell is he trying to do?"
Just when he was puzzled for eternity, he suddenly grabbed a spiritual light, and with the traction of this spiritual light, everything could be explained at this moment.
"Bloodline!"
Eternal times completely understood that Liu Cheng must be for his own bloodline. He still remembered that Liu Cheng once said to himself, "If I get you, what if Liu Hao dies?"
A martial artist who is no longer able to have children, seeing that the deadline is coming soon, does he really not care about the life or death of his son? And that is the son he got in his old age?
Liu Cheng doesn't care about his son's life or death so much, which means that he must have some way to prolong his lifespan, and this method can also allow him to have children again.
Is there any way to prolong his life and continue to have children?
Breakthrough cultivation!
This is the only way to explain the pass!
Destiny is determined by heaven, and it is impossible for mortals to prolong their lifespan, but warriors can.
Cultivation is a matter of rebellion, and although the path is full of endless dangers, every step a warrior takes will also be followed by unimaginable benefits. Strength and longevity are the most obvious benefits, if you practice to a certain level, the warrior can inherit the bloodline and bless the future generations.
Ordinary people only have a lifespan of sixty or seventy years, and those with a harder life may live to be 100 years old. However, if a martial artist does not have an accident, there is no problem in living to be 100 years old. If you cultivate to become a warrior, you will have another 50 years of life, and if you cultivate to become a warrior, you can live for 200 years.
Liu Cheng slapped Qiangu on that day, and he saw that Qiangu might have blood, so he paid attention to Qiangu. And Liu Hao is a chess piece at best, and it is Liu Cheng who is really manipulating behind the scenes, and he wants to force out the eternals from beginning to end, not Liu Hao looking for revenge.
Although this answer feels strange and everything is speculative, it is only more reasonable to explain it this way.
It's all bloodline!
Thinking of this, Qiangu then stared at himself and said: "The bloodline is innate, it has a unique mark, even if he catches me, can he still strip the bloodline from me and transfer it to him?"
"Whew!"
Just when he was puzzled, the flames under him burst up and burned directly to his feet.
His feet hurt hotly, and Eternals quickly recovered his senses. The most important thing for him at the moment was not to think about how Liu Cheng would obtain the bloodline in his body, but how to escape from here. Otherwise, it won't be long before you risk being burned alive by the fire under you.
At that moment, Qiangu pulled the chain on his wrist with both hands, but he suddenly found that he couldn't lift a trace of strength, and he could really be called powerless. At this time, I remembered that he couldn't raise his strength before he was captured by Liu Cheng, and his body was poisoned by some kind of poison.
However, the fire under him is getting stronger and stronger, and if you don't quickly find a way to escape, you may really be burned to death by the fire. Although the strength in the body is not there, ** has not been harmed, and it is still as resilient as after it was reborn, and it may be able to pull its limbs out of the iron ring.
As soon as he thought of it, he quickly contracted his hands, turned into a fusiform, and then pulled out of the iron ring little by little. But just halfway through the draw, it suddenly got stuck, and I couldn't pull it out. It's just a little bit short, as long as the hand is in the upper half circle of thinning, you can pull it out. Or with a hint of strength, the hand can be withdrawn.
"No, just grind little by little, and I'm going to pull my hand out!" Eternal gritted his teeth, and his hands kept spinning, really grinding and shrinking his hands as he said.
"Whoa...... Whoop ......"
As the eternal hands kept grinding, the iron chain made a sound until it reached the outside of the Dan furnace.
Outside the Dan furnace, Liu Cheng's wrinkled face exuded brilliance, the twilight of the past was swept away, and the banana fan in his hand kept fanning the Dan furnace.
At this moment, the sound of the chain alarmed him. He stopped his movements, leaned his ear against the Dan furnace, and heard the sound in the Dan furnace clearly.
"Save it! Don't waste your efforts!" Liu Cheng knew that this was a movement made by the eternals, so he shouted loudly towards the Dan furnace: "You have already been hit by the 'Sorrowful Crisp Breeze', unless you have the cultivation of the Martial Sect and the true yuan condensed in your body, don't think about dissolving this poison, let alone get out of trouble from here!"
Eternal nature heard Liu Cheng's voice outside the Dan furnace, but he couldn't change his original intention at all, even if he grinded his hands to only white bones, he had to go out from here.
"Humph!"
Liu Cheng listened to the movement in the Dan furnace and did not stop, knowing that the eternal people were still not giving up, he snorted coldly and said, "I have waited for seventy years, just for today." As soon as the pill is completed, I will be able to completely change my cultivation qualifications, and from now on, my cultivation will become a thousand miles a day, how can I let you escape?"
The eternal who was struggling in the Dan furnace listened to Liu Cheng's words, and his expression was shocked, "Sure enough, Liu Chengcheng is coming for my bloodline!"
Thinking of this, Qiangu's hands moved faster and faster. I don't want to be swallowed by others refining pills, if I get to that time, even if I die in the future, I won't have the face to see my father. The body is skinned, and the parents who receive it dare not destroy it, and the beginning of filial piety is also. If he is refined into an elixir, it is a big unfilial thing.
Hearing the movement in the Dan furnace getting louder and louder, Liu Cheng sneered, shook his head and said, "I advise you to hurry up and save your strength, so that you may still have the strength to kill yourself when the fire comes up." Otherwise, once you lose your strength, you will wait to be burned alive!"
"You killed my shitty son, but I don't hate you, you're more precious than him. What's more, refining you into an elixir can be regarded as avenging him, and he will not hate me in hell. ”
"If you have any unfulfilled wishes, don't think about them, just take them to hell!"
"Don't worry, I won't bury your powerful bloodline, I will definitely make its prestige resound throughout the world!"
Thinking of the scene that day when he could take his palm with martial arts cultivation, Liu Cheng was extremely excited. How powerful should it be to be able to forcibly elevate a martial apprentice to the bloodline of a martial artist?
Emperor?
Divine product?
Liu Cheng didn't dare to imagine it, and could only describe it as shocking. He had lived for more than a hundred years, and he had never heard of any strange things, but he had never heard of a bloodline power that could directly raise a martial artist's cultivation by two levels.
The gods are not good, and the emperors are even worse!
He had already imagined that after he took the pill, his qualifications would completely change, and his cultivation would be a great leap in the day. What Jiang Zi, what Wang Sheng, it's all bullshit, and all the cultivation records will be broken by him. He is the latecomer, breaking through to Emperor Wu in two hundred years, and breaking through to the Martial God in three hundred years, becoming the overlord of the Tianyan Continent, respected by all people!
Beauty, as many as you want, all the women in the world belong to him; son, you can give birth as much as you want, and ensure that each one is stronger than Liu Hao.
When the eternal in the Dan furnace heard Liu Cheng's words, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood. It was at this moment that he really realized that Liu Cheng was not only ruthless, but also very cheap. He even imagined that Liu Cheng must have been a hypocritical villain with his head bowed when he was young. With a sharp mouth, he ate all over Surabaya County, and in the end, his fat grandfather couldn't help it, so he gave him the position of the alchemy elder of the Martial God Academy.
"Humble... Mean... Not... Shame ......"
At this moment, he scolded as never before. However, the next moment, he was happy.
