"Uncle Clan!"

"I've seen Uncle Clan."

"Uncle Zifan."

Walking all the way, the figures were staggered, and the clansmen who were originally walking happily stopped saluting after seeing Zhang Zifan, and the latter also nodded slightly in response.

"It's only been a few years, and the clan is already full of juniors." Zhang Zifan couldn't help but sigh with emotion, he was once young, and now he is quite senior.

All the way back to his residence, which was a high cliff with dozens of small courtyards scattered around, and he occupied one of them.

"Husband!" A woman with long hair coiled up watched Zhang Zifan return, and her face was also full of joy.

Many words got stuck in his throat, and finally turned into a flat hug, "Just come back." ”

Zhang Zifan smiled and patted the woman's back, "Madame, don't worry, I'm just practicing the Qi Realm, and the family won't let me get involved in anything too dangerous." ”

After speaking, there was a slight doubt in his eyes.

The woman's name was Shi Yu'er, and she was one of the many women arranged for him by the family shortly after the Zhang family came to Chilangxia, and of course, let him choose the favorite one.

Zhang Zifan didn't want to be like this, he wanted to practice, he wanted to become an immortal, even if he couldn't ascend, he wanted to be closer to the nine heavens.

He longed for the Immortal Path, not just for immortality.

But he failed, once, when he was in Yun Mengze, he had already built the foundation once, and that time, he failed, and he ruined all his future.

The monks of the immortal law inheritance are like this, there is no advance or retreat, once they retreat, there is no possibility.

After failing to build the foundation, he naturally became the status of guarding the resource points for the family for a long time, and he couldn't refute this, and the family also saw the efforts over the years.

But he still couldn't build the foundation for the second time, and the shackles between Qi training and foundation building disappeared.

This kind of thing should be a joyful situation for anyone, but people like them, who failed to build a foundation once, are the most desperate blows.

This represents that Xianlu is unwilling to give them another chance, and like mortals, he has been abandoned outside the gate of immortality after failure.

Therefore, after coming to Chilang Gorge, he had become middle-aged, and was arranged by his family to be a Taoist couple, a loose cultivator woman who practiced qi at the fifth level.

The woman is very nice, gentle and virtuous, and after experiencing the initial shyness, the two depend on each other.

Zhang Zifan was helpless about such an ending, and he finally gave up his efforts and no longer wasted resources on the road to immortality where there could be no future.

And Shi Yu'er took advantage of the Zhang family's shareholder style and Zhang Zifan's resources, and gradually entered the late stage of qi training over the years, but her qualifications are not enough, and I am afraid that she can only stop here in the future.

The two are affectionate, but there is no quarrel about this, perhaps this is also because the cultivation world of the Divine Court is too prosperous, and there are so many monks that they are no different from mortals.

Zhang Zifan's heart has gradually become ordinary, and he accepts his ordinariness.

But......

One day, variables came.

During the war with the Yan family, Zhang Zifan returned from a serious injury and was recuperating at home, when the Hundred Blades brother found him.

For the latter, the people of the Zhang family are naturally no strangers, but Zhang Zifan is curious about why he found him.

Brother Zhi asked, "Does the brother still desire immortality?" ”

Both of them are not young, even if Zhang Baijian has built the peak of the foundation and looks young, but neither of them has the mentality they once had.

Naturally, he didn't think it was a joke from his brother, so after being silent for a long time, he only replied.

"Brother Clan may give me immortality?"

Zhang Baijian nodded, "Yes." ”

On that day, Zhang Zifan felt that his heart had never beaten so violently, and the dusty dream was boiling on that day, making him forget everything.

"Wish!"

On that day, Zhang Baijian sat opposite Zhang Zifan for a long time, and finally when the dusk was falling, a finger fell on Zhang Zifan's chest.

The heart was not broken, it was his dantian that was broken, and Zhang Zifan was horrified to find that his cultivation and his mana were boiling violently like a flame ignited in an oil pot.

The dantian shattered, and his mana began to gradually flow upstream along the bone marrow and flesh and blood, gradually converging in the heart.

Knock ~ Knock knock!

His heart beats with extraordinary energy.

He was shocked, but Zhang Baijian looked at him expressionlessly, "This is your only chance, if you fall in front of a certain bottleneck, you will be powerless." ”

Zhang Zifan ignored such words, he used to be young and frivolous, but after the failure of foundation building, he understood the fear of the cut off of the road to immortality better than Zhang Baiyi.

He's not what he used to be.

"When the dantian disappears and all the mana flows backwards in the heart, the clan brother can try to build the foundation again, if it succeeds, you must also remember that the heart will become your most fatal weakness, even if it is a golden lotus."

Zhang Zifan remembered this sentence, but he was also more concerned about his possible future.

"Is it really possible......" He was nervous, afraid that this was a fantasy joke.

Because today, all the mana of the ninth layer of his cultivation qi is finally about to be completed.

"Yu'er, I'm going to retreat." Gently stroking the woman's back, under the stunned gaze of the other party, Zhang Zifan walked into the secret room alone, opened all the formations, and took out all his resources.

The light of the spirit stone flickered, Zhang Zifan sat cross-legged in the center, and the dantian completely disappeared at a certain moment, replaced by an extremely active heart, containing the mana of the ninth layer of his Qi cultivation.

With his heart beating, Zhang Zifan found that there were dense cracks on his nearest pile of spirit stones, and after dozens of heartbeats, these spirit stones suddenly turned into powder, and at the same time, the majestic heaven and earth spiritual energy spread around.

They wrap around the body, in the rhythm of the heartbeat, being devoured.

Feeling the mana that began to grow in his body, Zhang Zifan was very excited, and his eyes were shocked.

"It worked!"

Half an hour later, the secret room opened, and Zhang Zifan saw his wife with a worried face, and stepped forward to pick her up.

"Madam, I've succeeded in building the foundation!"

At the same time, thousands of meters away, on the highest and steep slope of Chilang Gorge, Zhang Baijian also felt something.

As he sat cross-legged, a solemn heartbeat sounded in the void around him.

As if the sound of a heartbeat had awakened the other beings, a second heartbeat rang out, followed by a third......

It was as if the war drums were ringing, without any rhythm, and the heartbeat was chaotic and disorderly, but in such a heartbeat, Zhang Baijian's breath became deeper and deeper, and it became more and more terrifying.

The illusory red lotus flower wrapped his whole body, becoming more and more condensed.

In the entire family, no one felt this strange fluctuation, and the huge heaven and earth vision of the golden lotus did not seem to exist here in Zhang Baijian.

Quietly, there were no ripples in the aura of heaven and earth, until a few days later, Zhang Baijian stood calmly on the peak, looking down on the peaks of Chilang Gorge.
