Chapter 2: Family Crisis
Staying in the room for half an hour, digesting the appearance of the Eight Desolations Refining Divine Ding, he left and returned to the martial arts arena, no matter whether what the Eight Desolations Refining Divine Ding said was true or false, he would not change the cultivation plan he had arranged.
Return to the martial arts arena and continue to practice.
Meticulous practice without any interruptions.
It wasn't until someone came to report that Shi Tianlong was looking for him, and he stopped cultivating.
Shi Tianlong is the patriarch of the Shi family, Shi Feng's grandfather, and one of the two martial arts lords in Donglin County, the other is Zhou Xiaotian, the head of the Zhou family who is opposed to the Shi family.
After taking a cold shower, Shi Feng came to the hall.
When I came in, I saw that in addition to Shi Tianlong, there were two brothers, Shi Tao and Quartz.
In Shi Feng's generation, there are a total of eighteen brothers in the uncle's family, this Shi Tao ranks third, Quartz ranks sixth, and Shi Feng is the eighteenth and youngest one.
"Grandpa, third brother, sixth brother. ”
"Well, sit down. ”
When Shi Feng sat down, he keenly realized that the atmosphere seemed to be a little wrong.
The faces of all three of them were a little solemn.
Not long after, the eldest uncle Shi Wukun and the sixth uncle Shi Wuyi also came.
Shi Feng couldn't help but cheer up.
In the Shi family, the most outstanding in the Mesozoic Era is undoubtedly Shi Wukun and Shi Wuyi, they hold the internal and external power of the Shi family, take care of the Shi family, the old man Shi Tianlong doesn't care much, he is generally a hidden cultivator, and he is rarely seen in non-important matters.
In terms of the new generation, Shi Feng is undoubtedly the best, and there are two other people who are also outstanding, Shi Tao and Quartz.
Now the elites of the Shi family are gathered together, which is rare.
"Wu Kun, come on. Shi Tianlong said.
Shi Wukun, usually Shi Tianlong doesn't care about things, he is the highest speaker of the Shi family, equivalent to the patriarch of the Shi family.
"Not long ago, the city lord came with the news that Donglin County got a place in the competition for the opportunity to go to the Holy Mountain to meet the Martial Saint every ten years. Shiwu Kundao.
When Shi Feng heard this, he was stunned, "The quota for meeting the Martial Saint, isn't there only three places at the level of the Fucheng, the young talents of the major counties below the Fucheng need to enter the Fucheng to compete, how come this time we have a quota in Donglin County." ”
Shi Wukun said: "This is the rule re-formulated by the Holy Mountain, the entire Yunluo Country, from now on, each county will obtain a qualification to meet the Martial Saint, and the three places in each prefecture will remain unchanged, and the competition for the Martial Saint will be held in a month, this time to meet the Martial Saint, as usual, if you get the approval of the Martial Saint, you can become a disciple of the Martial Saint; ”
At this point, Shi Feng finally understood why the atmosphere was so depressing.
If it is placed in the past, the competition for every ten years is in Fucheng, which is a big city with eighteen counties under its jurisdiction, and there are three major families in it, almost all of which are divided by them, and the eighteen counties have no chance at all.
Now that there is an opportunity, it also means that the Shi family is in danger.
The first day of the new generation of Donglin County was Shi Feng, that's right.
But he is too young, only fifteen years old, just a fourth-grade warrior, this age, this realm, no one has ever reached it before, but the first master of the new generation of Donglin County is Zhou Yang of the Zhou family, he is twenty-three years old this year, an eight-rank warrior, there is no doubt that if Shi Feng is given a few years, he can completely despise Zhou Yang, the problem is that there is only one month before the competition for the place.
A month was too little for Shi Feng.
On the other hand, the other two leaders of the Shi family, Shi Tao and Quartz, are just sixth-rank warriors, and they are not Zhou Yang's opponents.
So obviously, for the first time in the history of Donglin County, the quota for meeting the Martial Saint was bound to be taken away by Zhou Yang, and this also meant that the Shi family might face the danger of extinction, because even if Zhou Yang could not be recognized by the Martial Saint and become a disciple of the Martial Saint, he could obtain a Gathering Spirit Sacred Fruit.
Gathering Spirit Holy Fruit, taken it, can forcibly raise the strength to the realm of Martial Venerable.
The Shi family and the Zhou family have been fighting each other for more than a hundred years, and the feud is very deep.
The strength of the two families is comparable, both of them have only one first-grade martial artist, so there is no head-on conflict, once Zhou Yang gets the quota, then after returning, at least it is also the realm of martial arts, and the Zhou family, where the two martial arts are in charge, can completely destroy the Shi family.
"Is the Spirit Gathering Holy Fruit really that magical?" Shi Feng asked.
He thought it was a bit exaggerated.
If a spiritual fruit is like this, why bother with cultivation, if a person wants to achieve something above the martial arts, penance is a must.
Shi Wukun said: "Anyone who is not recognized by the Martial Saint has limited potential, and a Gathering Spirit Sacred Fruit is to completely exhaust their potential and forcibly ascend to the Martial Venerable realm, and from then on, there will never be a chance to advance again." ”
"That's right. Shi Feng pursed his lips, if that was the case, he was not interested in the Spirit Gathering Holy Fruit.
Exhausting all potential and staying in one realm forever is the price of the Spiritual Gathering Sacred Fruit.
"After getting the news, my father has been judging what kind of realm Zhou Yang will ascend to if he gets the Spirit Gathering Holy Fruit, but now can he judge?"
Shi Feng and the others all pricked up their ears.
The Gathering Spirit Holy Fruit does not mean that you can be forcibly promoted to a first-grade martial venerable, but it depends on your potential, it is recorded that you can reach the highest level of seventh-grade martial venerable, but the worst is that you can reach the realm of first-grade martial venerable.
Shi Tianlong's face was solemn and he didn't say a word.
Everyone held their breath.
This oppressive atmosphere is breathless.
After a long time, Shi Tianlong said: "In my judgment, it is possible for Zhou Yang to reach the level of a four-rank martial venerable with the help of the Gathering Spirit Holy Fruit. ”
"Shhh
The Shi family all gasped.
In addition to the specific strength of the city lord in Donglin County, the strongest ones are Shi Tianlong and Zhou Xiaotian, and they are just first-grade martial artists, if it is a fourth-grade martial venerable, they can completely sweep the Shi family with the power of one person.
"In terms of the feud between our Shi family and the Zhou family in the past hundred years, there is no possibility of resolving it at all, even if the Shi family is willing to give up everything and become its affiliated family, it is impossible. Shiwu Kundao.
His words were more like announcing that the Shi family was about to be destroyed.
Shi Tianlong looked around at his children and grandchildren.
"As far as the new generation is concerned, although the outside always thinks that my Shi family will sweep the Zhou family in the near future and become the strongest existence in Donglin County, but this is all an appearance, just because we have a little Shi Feng, but apart from him, look at others. Shi Tianlong couldn't even speak.
In addition to Shi Feng, the strongest Shi Tao and Quartz are sixth-grade warriors, on the other hand, the Zhou family, Zhou Yang is an eight-rank warrior, and there are two seventh-grade warriors, the gap is too big.
Although Shi Feng brought hope, this meeting with the Martial Saint completely knocked out Shi Feng's advantage.
He was only fifteen years old, and in a month's time, it was impossible for him to reach the eighth-rank warrior to defeat Zhou Yang and seize the quota of the martial saint.
The atmosphere in the hall was even more depressing.
Shi Tianlong and the others were all worried.
Only the Eight Desolations Refining Divine Ding appeared in Shi Feng's mind, and the words it said, at this time, were like a thunderbolt constantly echoing in Shi Feng's mind.
"One year, reach the Martial Saint!"
If that's the case, it shouldn't be a big problem to reach the eighth-rank samurai that month.
In one year, from the samurai to the martial artist, the martial artist, to the martial saint, what a terrifying span, on average, a month should cross two to three realms, and the later the realm is improved, the more difficult it is, then the early stage should be fast.
"Can a miracle be born?"
In one month, he went from a fourth-rank samurai to an eighth-rank samurai.
Shi Feng himself felt that it was very unreal.
Coming out of the hall, Shi Feng returned to his residence, and he couldn't be quiet, looking forward to the arrival of the night, when the Eight Desolation Refining Divine Ding would appear.
"Brother Feng. ”
The crisp and pleasant voice sounded in his ears, like a spiritual spring, temporarily washing away Shi Feng's troubles.
The door opened, and a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl walked out slowly, although she was young, she had a sense of elegance, like a fairy who came out of the picture scroll, her skin was delicate and moving, her long black hair was naturally scattered over her shoulders, and a flawless jade face gave people a dreamlike feeling.
The only fly in the ointment is that her eyes are closed, and that's because she is blind.
"Worry-free, how did you get out. Shi Feng walked forward quickly.
The girl's name is Ning Wuwu, a descendant of Shi Feng's grandmother's sister's family, and is also a relative of the Shi family, and then came to the Shi family because of the middle of the family, because the age is the closest to Shi Feng, so the two have been playing together since childhood, the relationship is the closest, and then the age is getting older, Ning Wuwu's cold temperament is shown, and others are quite indifferent, but the relationship with Shi Feng is close.
"I want to soak up the sun, and it's boring to stay in my room all day. Ning Wuwu said.
Shi Feng went over, helped her, and said, "You, you, I want to find a maid for you to serve, but you don't agree." ”
Ning Wuwu smiled and said: "There are others serving, why is Brother Feng still worried that Brother Feng can't see and will wrestle, so that Brother Feng will always think about worry-free." ”
"It's a lot of thought. Shi Feng said with a smile.
He helped Ning Wuwu to the flower garden in the yard, and a faint fragrance came, refreshing people's hearts.
Sunshine, courtyards, flower beds, beautiful women, a moving scene.
"It smells so good. Ning Wuwu shrugged his lovely nose, "Brother Feng, if you have anything on your mind, tell me about it." ”
"You've found it again. Shi Feng was not surprised, this Ning Wuwu was blind, but his sense of the outside world was extremely keen, even if Shi Feng hid the unhappiness and sorrow in his heart, she could feel it.
Ning Wuwu smiled playfully and said, "Ning Wuwu, I would rather be carefree, and it is difficult to hide any worries from me." ”
Shi Feng naturally wouldn't tell her, he didn't want to see Ning Wuwu worried about this, so he said: "It's nothing, it's just that I was taking a bath outside today and was peeped at by a woman, hey, pity me for being pure and immaculate." ”
The courtyard sounded with a silver bell-like laughter.
When the hazy night covered Donglin County, after the two finished eating, Shi Feng and Ning Wuwu ate dinner and took care of her to sleep, and then returned to the room and waited for the appearance of the Eight Desolations Refining Divine Ding.
ps: Sun, beach, beauty, that's even cooler
