In the year 211 of the Southern Calendar, the ninth day of the first month of January.

Chen's Mansion, the mansion is noisy at this time, but it is not noisy and noisy, the sound of orchestral silk and bamboo is faintly mixed with the sound of laughter, and the guests who come and go to Chen's Mansion are either rich or noble, and they are all gentlemen.

Even at this time, there were not a few dignitaries and dignitaries who came to pay their respects outside the mansion, and they all lined up to give congratulatory gifts, which was enough to show the power of the Chen Mansion.

But at this moment, as the protagonist of the celebrated party, Chen Dengming, the head of the Chen family, is a little tired of such worldly entertainment, and the long-buried impulse in his heart is getting closer and closer, and the more he is ready to move.

As the eighth martial arts master to step into the innate realm of Nanxun, Chen Dengming has been crisscrossing the rivers and lakes for decades, and has long been famous in Nanxun.

But the experience that made him even more famous was that more than ten years ago, Nanxun Guojun personally hired Chen Dengming to become the crown prince and go to the palace to teach the prince martial arts.

Although the crown prince and the prince are fictitious, it also makes the Chen Mansion rise because of this, and it has jumped from the status of a family in the rivers and lakes to an official palace.

However, among these rumors, the most talked-about is that Chen Dengming met an immortal in his early years and was given a Zhuyan Pill, so that this old man Chen is now more than eighty years old, but he is still as handsome as a young man, and has become the dream lover of countless women in the rivers and lakes.

Recently, because of teaching the prince martial arts, the king of Nanxun personally wrote a golden plaque 'Nanxun Sword King' and gave it to Chen Dengming.

For a while, Chen Dengming's name seemed to have overshadowed several other innate grandmasters.

These days, the guests who came to the Chen Mansion to congratulate almost all of them had to break through the threshold of the Chen Mansion, just to see the plaque of the 'Nanxun Sword King' and the demeanor of the Chen Sword King.

However, it is ironic that Chen Dengming's most powerful martial arts is not the sword technique, but the Gu technique obtained from the immortal back then.

"It's been eighty-two years since I traveled, and if I hadn't had a golden finger to practice and prolong my life, I'm afraid I'd be going to die now...... It's a pity that as early as twenty years ago, after my martial arts attainment, even if ordinary martial arts were supreme, it would be difficult for me to practice and prolong my life, and the only hope was the Gu technique I obtained from that immortal back then. ”

Chen Dengming stood on top of the tall building with his hands in his hands, looking down at the unusually lively and prosperous banquet below, expressionless, as if he had seen through the red dust and fireworks, and did not want to waste any more energy on it.

Behind it, there are four screens engraved with the eighteen scenes of Nanxun, behind the screens, the Chen family's dead guards who have been kneeling all over the ground at this time, are all first-class masters cultivated by him, and they are about to do something for him.

Chen Dengming sighed in his heart, "It's a pity...... The Gu technique obtained from the immortals, even if I have the help of the golden finger, it will be difficult to go further due to the lack of cultivation resources.

Now I only have fifty years to live, and if I still cherish the glory and wealth of this mortal world, I will eventually live my life like a mortal and die......"

If you don't know about the existence of immortals, Chen Dengming can completely treat yourself as a martial arts world.

He has worked hard to cultivate until now, he can drink and talk with the monarch, can teach the prince to become the prince and the prince, and is famous all over the country.

In the next fifty years, he also had the confidence to go to the top of the martial arts in the rivers and lakes and truly become the first person in the martial arts.

But...... Since he had known for a long time that there were immortals in this world, his ambitions had also changed subtly early on.

Ever since he received the immortal's Gu art inheritance, he had been cultivating all these years, but due to the limited resources of the mortal world, he was gradually unable to advance an inch.

His lifespan had completely stopped at the age limit of 132 years old fifteen years ago, and it was difficult for him to improve in the slightest because of his cultivation.

Therefore, fifteen years ago, he married a wife and concubine in a high-profile manner, expanded the family, which was a madness to plan for the worst, and experienced a perfect life without regrets.

But he has never given birth to a child, just because he still has the last bit of thought in his heart, because there is still an invitation card that he got with the immortal's Gu art inheritance.

According to the invitation, every hundred years, exotic immortals will descend and hold an immortal meeting on the ethereal cliff of the Ice Wind Forest in the north of the South Xun Country.

Anyone who holds an invitation card, no matter what kind of background, is eligible to go to the Ethereal Cliff to try the fairy fate.

If you have the qualification to cultivate immortals, you will be included in the door wall by the immortal gate, set foot in the immortal cultivation realm, and ask for immortality.

It is the existence of this invitation that has made Chen Dengming never extinguish his immortal ambition for so many years.

And now, there is only half a year left before the official start of the Na Dengxian Conference, and Chen Dengming is already planning to leave the Chen family and leave.

He took one last look at the bustling family feast and looked out another window into the backyard area.

His seven-room wives and concubines were chatting and laughing with a group of dignitaries and dignitaries.

It can be seen that his wives are enjoying the rich life now......

These wives were originally married when he was rich and wealthy fifteen years ago, all of them were beautiful women, with excellent backgrounds, and they came for wealth and nobility from the beginning, and they also enjoyed what they got now.

But unfortunately, no one understands his heart.

Now, when he suddenly realized that when he watched "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance" before, Tang Bohu's emotional state when he looked at his many wives and concubines was so similar to him now.

In the past, he was a senior in high school when he couldn't understand it, but now he is a third-year high school old man after he understands it.

He turned to leave, and ordered the butler, who was guarding his side like a shadow, to summon the wives and concubines of the sixth and third rooms.

Fifteen years have passed, and many of the seven wives and concubines he married back then have become old, but he still remains at the age of thirty because he took Zhuyan Dan in his early years.

Among the seven-room wives and concubines, only the sixth and third rooms are still young and beautiful, their skin is smoother than that of a girl, and their temperament is even more speechless.

Before parting, Chen Dengming wanted to go crazy one last time, leaving behind heirs, so that this mortal life would have no regrets.

Otherwise, once he fails in the pursuit of immortal fate and what danger happens, wouldn't he just walk in vain in this world, leaving not too many traces, and no one will inherit even the great family business he has laid.

"Chen Zhong."

Chen Dengming said flatly.

"The old slave is here!"

The housekeeper Chen Zhong is tall and thin, with a simple face, but a pair of eyes are shining, which makes people feel that he is resolute and unyielding, and it is not simple, so he bowed down and waited for Chen Dengming to send him.

Chen Dengming said calmly, "If the third and sixth rooms are pregnant, whether they are men or women, I want you to protect the children when they grow up and pass on the family business to them, no matter how powerful they are, I just hope that they can be healthy and safe." ”

"The old slave will live up to the master's trust!"

Chen Zhong knelt on the ground excitedly, raised his hands to accept the token and entrustment delivered by Chen Dengming, and his eyes were already ruddy.

He understood that this was Chen Dengming's great trust in him.

After he was given the surname Chen, he changed his name to Chen Zhong, and he was only loyal to the Chen family and the lord all his life.

After so many years of fighting in the rivers and lakes, Chen Dengming will not only make preparations, but Chen Zhong, whose strength has reached the peak of the day after tomorrow and is extremely loyal, is the first person he chose to take care of the family after he left the family.

In addition, he also selected other candidates from among the dead soldiers, and he must be foolproof.

Night.

In the room of the head of the family in the backyard of the Chen family, eighteen brides and eighty langs, with pale hair and red makeup. The mandarin ducks are made into a double night, and a pear flower presses the begonia.

Also on this night, the sound of fireworks and firecrackers around Chen's house resounded in the sky, and thousands of trees bloomed at night in the east wind outside the courtyard, and thousands of trees and pear blossoms bloomed in the courtyard.

The third room and the sixth room cried with joy, only to feel that after waiting for so many years, the master finally wanted to open and give birth to an heir, but who knew that Chen Dengming was about to leave and chase the road of immortal immortality.

...

Day 2.

The first batch of dead soldiers of the Chen family left first, and went straight to the ethereal cliffs of the ice wind forest in the north of the South Xun Country.

Chen Dengming has been searching for decades in order to seek immortal fate, but he has never found any miracles.

As for the Ice Wind Forest, he had also sent people to investigate many times, but he didn't find any clues.

Now that he was getting closer to the Ascending Immortal Conference, he became more and more calm, and he was not so excited that he ran over to investigate first, but planned and then moved, sending the dead to explore first, and once there was any danger, he could avoid it in advance.

After all, the inheritance of the Gu Dao Immortal that he had obtained back then was only from a corpse.

It is unknown why the immortals died, whether the Ascending Immortal Conference was a hoax, and so on.

As a traveler, Chen Dengming's thinking and vision are not comparable to the aborigines of this world.

At the mention of immortals, the aborigines' reaction may be extremely awe-inspiring, even to the point of being blind and not daring to resist and disobey.

But Chen Dengming's reaction may be that 'immortals may only be immortal cultivators, that is, cultivators, and strong people who are cultivated by people', which I have seen too much in the novels of my previous life.

Of course, after all, he hadn't really seen the so-called 'immortals' yet, and he didn't know if the immortal cultivators in this world would be different from the existence he imagined, everything was indeed still unknown.

A week after the departure of the first deceased.

Outside the famous bloody cave in the rivers and lakes, a man in luxurious clothes suddenly appeared at this time.

The Blood Centipede Cave is famous for the presence of countless poisonous blood centipedes in the caves, and it can be seen that many caves flickering phosphorescent in the dimness, eerie as ghost fire.

Every day at noon, the cave will spew out a pale green miasma, which is the excrement of the poisonous blood centipede, which is sprayed out from the hole in the shape of a skeleton in the roof of the cave.

In the past, some people in the rivers and lakes mistakenly thought that there was a treasure in this cave, which was the mausoleum of the royal family of the previous dynasty, which attracted many people in the rivers and lakes who wanted to enter it to seize the treasure.

Who knew that this Blood Centipede Cave was just a place for Chen Dengming, the old man of the Chen family, to refine Gu.

At that time, Chen Dengming had not yet been promoted to congenital, but he was also a well-known hero in the rivers and lakes, and in the face of some greedy and greedy Jianghu guests, he also made stern words to remind the danger in the cave, but no one was willing to listen to his admonition, and even thought that he wanted to dissuade everyone and swallow the treasure by himself.

Helplessly, Chen Dengming had no choice but to let it go, and he secretly tried his best to control the blood centipede to avoid hurting people.

But the greedy rivers and lakes rushed in and searched in the cave, but in the end, they still disturbed the blood centipede, resulting in many casualties in the blood centipede cave.

For many years after that, there were still people who entered the cave one after another, either because they did not give up on the rumored treasures, or because they were greedy for the cheats and blades of the Jianghu people who died in the cave in the past, until more people were killed and injured and few were obtained, and the Blood Centipede Cave gradually became a fierce place, and no one dared to break into it rashly.

"If you don't experience the lesson of blood, if you don't hit the south wall, people's greed will not stop after all."

The man in the fancy costume sighed softly, listening to the movement of the squirming and crawling like a centipede in the cave in front of him, he walked to another low forest, counted the time, bent down and began to dig the pit with a short hoe, and take out the toadstools in the pit.

"Hiss-"

Suddenly a colorful snake head sprang out of the pit, spitting red letters.

With a casual grab, he pressed the snake's head into the pit, and with the other hand, he unhurriedly began to take the white-green toadstools growing on the edge of the pit and put them into the Gu pouch around his waist.

But seeing that the pit was full of entangled and wriggling poisonous snakes, cyan, flower, red, etc., the cold snake pupils, scales, and spitting snake letters were all daunting.

He was used to it, because he was already an expert in playing Gu, and cultivating mad Gu was just the most common method.

He is Chen Dengming, the head of the Chen family, a legendary figure in the South Xunguo.

This kind of cultivated mad Gu is recorded in the Gu Dao classics left by Gu Immortals in the past, and it is the most ordinary mortal Gu, and it does not enter the rank.

However, even so, according to the records in the Gu refining formula, there is also a certain threat to the monks with lower realms, which can be regarded as one of the hole cards he prepared before going to the Ascending Immortal Conference this time.

To refine this Gu, you need to bury the poisonous snake in the soil, cultivate snake venom bacteria, and then take the fungus to harm people or feed the blood centipede to refine the Gu.

After taking the Mad Gu, Chen Dengming went to the nearby bamboo forest and took out the Bamboo Gu that had been soaked in a special medicinal solution for more than ten years from the bamboo tube.

He then went to a nearby pond and took out a loach Gu made of loaches mixed with his own hair and special poisonous mud.

After taking out all kinds of Gu poisons, Chen Dengming entered the famous Blood Centipede Cave.

After blowing up the fire fold, you can see a large area of densely wriggling blood-colored centipedes in the depths of the blood centipede, which is enough to suffocate people with dense phobia.

The sound of thousands of limbs crawling on the ground, or the sound of poisonous pincers biting each other, was like countless jumping candy in the ears.

Thousands of blood centipedes refine a Gu, and refining Gu is so cruel.

In this cave, only one blood centipede can survive in the end, and that blood centipede will be the most important material for refining blood centipedes, that is, "the so-called take a hundred insects into the urn, and after years of opening, there will be a worm that eats all the insects, which is called Gu."

After Chen Dengmingyue took off the clothes on his body, he stacked them neatly in the cave.

It can be seen that even though he is over 80 years old, he is still strong and strong, with layers of muscles, and even some scars and sword marks, which is a sign of years of martial arts practice and fighting in the rivers and lakes.

He smeared a special medicine on his body and entered the Blood Centipede.

Countless ferocious blood centipedes smelled his body, and in an instant, they rushed towards him like a tide.

Chen Dengming was undaunted, took out a knife and cut the skin of his wrist, sprinkling blood around his body.

A large number of blood centipedes that swarmed at the time of the arrival stopped outside the circle he had drawn with blood, fighting each other fiercely and competing to eat their blood.

This is the so-called 'refining Gu with people', and the whole process is eerie and mysterious.

The blood centipede is fierce and rebellious by nature, it is difficult to drive like an arm, and it is even more difficult to control after refining it into a blood centipede Gu, and it will easily turn against its master.

However, through the method of 'refining Gu with people', the blood centipede can finally eat the blood and mixed medicinal liquid of the refining master, and the blood centipede Gu that is finally refined can obey the orders of people, and it is connected with the master like blood, and the mind is connected.

In order to cultivate this blood centipede Gu, Chen Dengming spent forty years.

Before going to the Dengxian Conference, this will be the last trump card he has prepared for himself.

Because once this Blood Centipede Gu is refined, it is a real Spirit Gu, and it is a mortal threat to immortal cultivators.

Once anything bad happens at the Dengxian Conference, this may be Chen Dengming's killer move to ensure the safety of his life.

Moreover, the Blood Centipede Gu will also be the key to his further breakthrough in the Gu Refining Technique, and his lifespan will increase again at that time......
