Volume 1 Unraveling the Chain Chapter 26 The End of Qingping

Xu Shan put the five plasters he got back in his arms, followed Steward Wu in front of him, and after turning around, he finally stopped in front of a house similar to a firewood house.

Steward Wu took a key from his waist while chatting with Xu Shan with a smile.

"Brother Xu was appreciated by the head of the family at a young age, and his future will definitely be limitless. ”

When Xu Shan heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand, "Senior Wu is too polite, Shen Xianshi does not dislike my humble background and entrusts me with important tasks, this is all Shen Xianshi's great virtue, the kid is grateful in his heart." As for the future, I am already grateful that a wrestler like me can reach the first class in this life, but looking at Senior Wu, you are now a foundation building monk and a housekeeper in the Shen Mansion, and you will definitely be able to expect gold in the future. ”

Steward Wu shook his head with a smile, without the slightest shelf of a foundation building period monk, "Jin Dan, I don't count on it in my life, Brother Xu, look at this sect, there are not thousands of foundation building period monks, but also a hundred and ten, and so far only the five Tianzhong genius disciples have been able to reach the Jin Dan monks, it can be seen that Jin Dan is difficult to cultivate all the way, I don't have extravagant hopes." ”

With a creaking sound, the wooden door opened, and a large cloud of dust fell, apparently no one had been in for a long time.

Brother Xu waited outside the door, although this room was shabby, it was not something that ordinary people could enter. ”

Xu Shan naturally said yes. After waiting outside the door for a while, I saw Steward Wu walking out of the house with a few sets of things in his hands.

"Anyone who enters the palace to serve as a guard can get a Huangpin spirit weapon, a storage jade belt, a set of water clothes for the Shen Mansion, and a jade plaque symbolizing the Shen Mansion. ”

"Among them, Brother Xu can't use aura because he is a wrestler, so I took it upon myself to replace the Huangpin spirit weapon with a quasi-spirit weapon that can be used without aura urging, and you can put away this set of nine links. ”

When Xu Shan heard this, he couldn't stop slandering, and he could at least exchange a set of Huangpin spiritual weapons for three or four quasi-spiritual weapons, which was obviously filling his own pockets, if he was replaced by a qi practitioner, you, Steward Wu, would definitely not dare to be so blatant.

Although Xu Shan scolded in his heart, he looked ecstatic on his face.

"The storage jade belt is like the Qiankun bag you are carrying, you can put more things, the jade plate has the imprint of the Shen Mansion, and after you drop a drop of essence blood on it, you can only use it yourself, and it is also a certificate for entering and leaving the Shen Mansion. You put these things away carefully. ”

Xu Shan carefully put the rest of the things away in the Qiankun bag first, and then took out the jade plate, with mixed feelings in his heart, it took so much to finally get this jade plate. Then he bit his index finger and dropped a drop of essence blood on the jade plate to wait for the reaction, and after a while, the blood droplet still did not change on the surface.

Seeing this, Xu Shan was very anxious, and secretly said that he was so unlucky, but the jade plate that finally obtained the symbol of the Shen Mansion was unusable, and he let himself be put on the wrong side no matter how bad things were.

Steward Wu took out a handkerchief, wiped the original drop of blood, and then asked Xu Shan to try again.

Xu Shan hurriedly tried again, but fortunately this time there was finally a reaction, and the blood slowly seeped into the jade plate and disappeared, and at the same time, a figure appeared in the jade plate, which was Xu Shan's appearance. Seeing this, Xu Shan wiped his sweat and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After that, Xu Shan said goodbye to Steward Wu and walked straight towards the gate, Steward Wu watched Xu Shan walk out of the gate with a smile on his sleeves with both hands, and then walked slowly towards his residence, and in his hand in his sleeve, a drop of essence blood hung between his palms.

When he walked to his residence, Steward Wu wrote Xu Shan on a piece of paper from the beginning of entering Shen Zhuchen's courtyard to the last departure, and wrote at the end: "Shen Zhuchen has only been studying behind closed doors in the courtyard in recent years, and has never interacted with outsiders. ”

After Wu housekeeper finished writing, he put down the pen, blew vigorously with his mouth, took out a candle and lit it in broad daylight, put the paper full of words on the burning candle, at this time a strange scene appeared, only to see that the paper was intact without a trace of burning, and the words written on it disappeared one by one, as the words gradually disappeared, the candle burned quickly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and after the words on the paper completely disappeared, the candle also burned out.

After doing this, Steward Wu put his hands in his sleeves again, leaned back against the chair and took a nap, like a fat big cat.

The main peak of the clouds hangs above the sea of clouds, at this time the sunrise is flourishing, a piece of golden light is sprinkled from the sky, the sea of clouds dyed seems to be covered with a layer of golden sand, and occasionally a huge creature jumps up from it, yo you roars, if the wind returns to the snow to drive the surrounding sea of clouds to churn.

The area on the main peak is vast, or the bamboo is all over the place, the mountains are green, or the old cypress becomes a forest, and the color is blue. Pavilions and pavilions, waterfalls and cranes, everywhere in the fairyland. On either side of the main peak, there is a large area of polished smooth cliffs, on which are written in an elegant font: tangible and not tired, no trace to go with the wind.

The aura visible to the naked eye between heaven and earth gathers from all directions, such as the milk swallow returning to the nest and submerging into the main peak, it is really a good fairy blessed land.

In a secret room on the main peak, there is a figure sitting on a futon, in front of which there is a strange-shaped blade hanging in the air, the blade body is like a reed leaf that is split in two from the middle, and the pure black shape of the sword handle is similar to an ordinary sword handle, simple and atmospheric. At this time, the figure was pointing at the blade, and a wisp of pure white Dan fire continued to erupt from between his fingers against the blade, and not far behind the figure there was a complex formation, and the aura gushed out of the formation like a spring, and then the figure quickly swallowed the body.

At first, the blade was like a spiritual outlet, but as time passed, the light on the body gradually dimmed, and the entire blade felt like it was dying.

Seeing this, the figure turned his wrist, put back the Danhuo in his hand, and reached out to take the blade and looked at it carefully. I saw that this person's face was like the moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival, his sword eyebrows were in his temples, his eyes were like cold stars, he was about twenty years old, wearing a green shirt, and the hem was casually spread around the futon.

This handsome and beautiful man is none other than Shen Liuyun, the head of the Shen family.

Shen Liuyun flicked the blade with his fingers, listened to the lingering sound coming from it, and said with a smile on his face: "As long as I refine like this for a few more years, I can completely turn you into my own, and it will not be in vain for my unremitting efforts in the past six years."

Shen Liuyun rubbed the blade of this strange blade with his hand, feeling the unruly surging spiritual power coming from it, and he couldn't help but think of obtaining this strange blade.

Six years ago, because of the guidance of misinformation, he returned from Beiwangguo with nothing, and when he passed through a place, he found a strange monster, where he passed through the scorched gold and flowing stones, the water evaporated, and he felt the breath of the monster, Shen Liuyun naturally wanted to go around directly, where did he think that this strange monster didn't care about it, and went straight to himself, several times to avoid the battle to no avail, plus Shen Liuyun found that the unicorn aura on the top of his head was abundant, it was a natural flying sword material, and he naturally became greedy, and the strange monster was seriously injured and escaped under a big battle, and Shen Liuyun was also cut off part of the unicorn under the great injury。

After returning to the sect, Shen Liuyun was in retreat to heal his wounds on the one hand, and on the other hand, he also wanted to refine the unicorn into another natal flying sword with the fire of Jindan. Now that the fierce aura contained in this blade has finally been worn away, and then it only needs to be slowly warmed with its own essence and blood, supplemented by other materials, and it can be turned into an embryo of a natal flying sword in a few years.

Just thinking about it, a candle in the secret room suddenly burned automatically, Shen Liuyun glanced at it, put away the blade with a wave of his sleeve, and then reached out and extinguished the candle flame with a flick.

After the candle was extinguished, a wisp of green smoke rose from it, condensed but not dispersed, and soon a piece of text emerged from the green smoke, which was exactly what Steward Wu said about Xu Shan.

After Shen Liuyun finished reading the text, he waved his sleeves to scatter the words formed by the green smoke, and then stood up and stood in the air, floating back and forth in the secret room, frowning and pondering.

Twenty years ago, he first destroyed the Zhang family, which had been declining, and then Shen Zhuchen or Zhang Shiran, after coming out of the secret realm of Kang Longyuan, which determined the status of the seven major sects, his cultivation was unusually not falling but rising, which greatly shocked the seven major sects at that time.

You must know that Kang Longyuan will erupt from time to time almost every hundred years due to its own special reasons, and there are even rumors that the current seven major sects are from Kang Longyuan.

From the Yuanying cultivator who has spells to the sky, to the wrestler who can't cultivate, no matter what realm people are, they can go to Kanglongyuan. It's just that whoever enters it, no matter what your identity is, what kind of cultivation you have, after entering, you can't use any spiritual power or true qi, and you can only become a mortal;

In fact, since there is a historical record of Kang Longyuan, there are really a few Yuan Infant monks who are approaching, and they feel that their time is running out, and they personally enter the secret realm of Kang Longyuan to explore the secret, but after each Yuan Infant monk comes out of it, all the cultivation is to fall to the foundation building period, it seems that the higher the cultivation, the more the realm falls after coming out, and after several Yuan Infant monks came out, because the realm fell sharply within a few days, they died without a few days, and even one of the families was wiped out because they did not arrange the aftermath after the sudden death of the Yuan Infant Ancestor, which led to family infighting。

So in the face of so many drawbacks, as for why you want to enter Kang Longyuan, the main reason is that the benefits brought by it are too great. If it is said that the participation of the seven major sects in Kang Longyuan is a competition, then whoever can win the first place, the sect where they are located will definitely have many talents in the sect area before the next Kang Longyuan opens. For example, the Martial God Peak, which won the first place last time, in just forty or fifty years, there were four or five more Jindan monks, and the number of monks in the foundation building period in the gate had more than doubled, and in just a few decades, it had suddenly risen from the original bottom to the strongest one of the seven major sects.

In the face of such great benefits, whether or not they could get the top spot in the secret realm every time Kang Longyuan opened became the top priority of the major sects, after all, a long, long time ago, there were more than just seven sects.

Over time, rumors spread that Kang Longyuan contained a secret that allowed people to quickly ascend to the realm.

Therefore, when Zhang Shiran came out of the Kang Longyuan Secret Realm, he instantly jumped a few levels from the original eighth layer of Qi cultivation to the foundation building period, which naturally shocked the various sects that came to respond. For a while, Zhang Shiran of the Phiyun Sect had the secret of Kang Longyuan, and the saying spread far and wide.

Thinking of this, Shen Liuyun sighed, his figure fell to the ground in a flash, and he slowly paced up with his negative hands.

After knowing that Zhang Shiran might have the secret of Kang Longyuan's rapid ascension to the realm, the other six major sects naturally refused to give up, just when everyone bargained, and finally determined that several Yuanying elders would jointly search for Zhang Shiran's soul, and the major sects shared the secret, Zhang Shiran suddenly disappeared, no matter how everyone looked for it, they couldn't find any traces, and Zhang Shiran seemed to have evaporated from the world. In this regard, the major sects were naturally suspicious of each other, and even several chaotic battles broke out.

It wasn't until five years later, when the major sects had calmed down the war and were no longer hopeful, that in a country set up by the Phiyun Sect, Zhang Shiran was discovered by the people of the Shen family, and when he was discovered, he already had a daughter, which is now Zhang Tiying. And the country where Zhang Shiran was discovered is the Nanyuan country mentioned in Wu's letter.

For a while, the six major sects gathered in the Phiyun Sect, and after the three Yuanying monks searched for the soul together, it was determined that Zhang Shiran only got a rare immortal grass in Kang Longyuan, and what happened next.

And Zhang Shiran caused a war because of his disappearance and violated the laws of the Phiyun Sect, so he was not allowed to have any territorial jurisdiction within the sect, and was left to the Shen family to fend for himself.

Thinking of this, Shen Liuyun stopped and sneered.

The so-called punishment is just a means to cover people's ears, in fact, at that time, Zhang Shiran had just been thrown into the Shen family, and the seven major sects were either bright or dark, and Shen Liuyun also deliberately gave Zhang Shiran the name of Shen Zhuchen for the sake of the family at that time, and at the same time regarded a woman from Chunfeng Lou as a goddaughter and married Zhang Shiran as his wife, and at the same time confused the mind of the woman in Chunfeng Lou, and let her support her lover in front of Zhang Shiran, in order to force Zhang Shiran to be unbearable on the one hand, expose the secret of Kang Longyuan that he may have, and secondly, to show the people of the Seven Great Sects。

After observing for a long time, the Seven Great Sects found that Zhang Shiran was indeed resentful of the Shen family's practice at the beginning, and after complaining to no avail, he worked hard to cultivate, just when everyone thought that he was going to use the secret obtained in Kang Longyuan, who knew that Zhang Shiran had been working hard for more than ten years, and his cultivation had not increased in the slightest, which was really surprising, and the Seven Great Sects gradually lost interest in it, especially in the last few years, Zhang Shiran seemed to find that no matter how hard he tried, it was useless, and he became more and more self-pitying, and he didn't practice anymore, and he hid in the house all day long to read, and there is a feeling that he is not ashamed of his wife cheating in front of him, but proud. This also made almost everyone in the Seven Great Sects completely lose interest in him.

Later, with the passage of time, except for the talents of the Martial God Peak who came out on top, there was an explosive growth as mentioned in the previous experience, and the other six major sects were still tepid, and even the number of high-level monks in the Phiyun Sect where Zhang Shiran was located declined, making its strength fall from the original third to the fifth, and everyone was even more hopeless. Over time, the name Zhang Shiran gradually faded out of everyone's field of vision.

But there is one person who has been secretly observing Zhang Shiran, and this person is Shen Liuyun who first discovered Zhang Shiran.

Thinking of this, Shen Liuyun smiled proudly, rose from the ground, and stepped high step by step, as if there was an invisible staircase in the air.

In fact, the first person to discover Zhang Shiran was Steward Wu, who was already disheartened at that time and felt that there was no hope of building a foundation and returned to his hometown. After Steward Wu found out about Zhang Shiran, he neither pretended not to see it, nor did he notify the sect with great fanfare, but secretly repaired a letter and sent it to Shen Liuyun.

After Shen Liuyun received the news, without alarming anyone, he hurried to Nanyuan Country and secretly observed Zhang Shiran for a long time, and finally came to the conclusion that Zhang Shiran either deliberately hid it, or he really didn't know Kang Longyuan's secret, but in Zhang Shiran's hands, there was an object that was definitely brought out of Kang Longyuan, which was impossible to bring out anything.

Thinking of this, Shen Liuyun walked freely in the air, wiped the jade belt from his waist, and there was an extra koi-shaped jade pendant in his hand. It is the jade pendant that Zhang Shiran's daughter Zhang Tiying has worn since she was a child.

When Shen Liuyun found this jade pendant at that time, he knew that it must be something brought out of Kang Longyuan, because the aura contained in it was not at all any known spiritual power form on this Xuanyi Continent, and the aura was weird and domineering, Shen Liuyun just kept this jade pendant by his side, and he could feel that his cultivation had improved rapidly, which was several times faster than his previous cultivation.

Moreover, the place where the seven major sects competed in Kanglong Yuan was a huge mortal dynasty called the Jin Kingdom.

After discovering this jade pendant, Shen Liuyun spent a lot of money and invited skilled craftsmen to imitate an identical one according to its appearance, that is, the one that is now hanging on Zhang Tiying's neck, and the real koi jade pendant has long been in Shen Liuyun's pocket.

Later, the Seven Great Sects naturally also noticed Zhang Shiran's only daughter, and under various tests, it was found that she was just a Qi practitioner with average qualifications, without any talent and expertise. As for the jade pendant, it had been pondered countless times by the old foxes of the seven major sects, and naturally they did not find anything useful.

It's just that this jade pendant, Shen Liuyun hasn't solved its secret until now, and he only knows that his cultivation speed will be accelerated several times when he puts it on his body. Thinking of this, Shen Liuyun rubbed his forehead, and the jade pendant disappeared with a flip of his palm.

As for Steward Wu, because of his meritorious service to Shen Liuyun, after controlling him in the name of helping him improve his realm, he was sent to continue to monitor Zhang Shiran. Steward Wu seemed to be smart, and he also thought he was smart, but in fact, when he swallowed the pill that could directly ascend to the foundation building stage, life and death were already controlled by Shen Liuyun.

Shen Liuyun pondered the information from Steward Wu in his mind, and was surprised by the sentence he mentioned at the end: "After coming out, the cultivation is obviously much deeper than before", Zhang Shiran is now just a mere foundation building monk, and it is impossible for him to have any ability to improve a person's cultivation in a short period of time, even if it is a wrestler, unless either Zhang Shiran is now a Jindan monk, or Zhang Shiran has a way to let others quickly improve their realm.

Thinking of the first Shen Liuyun shook his head, if it was so easy to reach the Jindan stage, it would not be that there were only a handful of Jindan monks in the Phiyun Sect now, and the promotion to the Jindan was huge, and Zhang Shiran was in the sect, if he advanced to the Jindan, he would definitely not be able to hide it from his ears and eyes, in this way, the second might be the biggest.

Thinking of this, Shen Liuyun couldn't help but feel hot, his hands were pinched, and then the two palms were separated, and three thin threads flashed away from his palms.

Steward Wu was leaning back on the chair and sleeping, feeling the fluctuations of the aura around him at this moment, he was secretly happy in his heart, and slowly opened his little eyes, and then saw a light curtain appear in front of him, and it was Shen Liuyun, the head of the Shen family, opposite.

As soon as Steward Wu saw Shen Liuyun, he hurriedly got up and patted his cheek, then pulled his shirt to the side, and immediately knelt down, "I don't know if the head of the family asked in person, I'm honestly afraid." ”

"There is no need to be so polite, I came to you personally this time to ask you about what you just wrote. ”

When Steward Wu heard this, he still kowtowed respectfully and bowed, and then said, "The head of the family personally asked, and he didn't dare to hide it."

Then after Xu Shan entered the door, he told Shen Liuyun everything in detail.

After listening carefully, Shen Liuyun thought for a while and said, "Is there a mistake in what you said?"

Steward Wu hurriedly said, "I will never dare to deceive the head of the family." ”

Shen Liuyun looked at Steward Wu, who was bent over and respectful, and said in his heart Ten years ago, you gave me the news that Shen Zhuchen secretly sent people to Beiwangguo, but it made Lao Tzu miserable, although you told the truth, but what is the use of useless things.

Thinking so in his heart, he said in his mouth: "Continue to look at Shen Zhuchen, daily trivial matters are still reported as usual, and urgent matters are still contacted through Qianli Candle." After saying that, the picture was blurry for a while, and he was about to leave.

Steward Wu was a little anxious when he saw this, and said that as long as he found out that Shen Zhuchen had any unusual behavior, he would give himself a promise of a Dragon and Tiger Pill that could increase the probability of building a foundation in the middle stage, and what he had just discovered was more than unusual, so he hurriedly spoke: "Wait a minute, the master of the family"

When Shen Liuyun heard this, he stopped his movements and quietly looked at Steward Wu without saying a word.

"Because I know that Shen Zhuchen's matter today is very unusual, I deliberately secretly left a drop of Xu Shan's essence blood in my hand, just to consider that you may need to use it as a family master. ”

Steward Wu hurriedly said, deliberately accentuating his tone when he said the word 'unusual'.

Shen Liuyun looked at Steward Wu, and then suddenly realized: "Yes, you are very hearty, I will send someone to get the essence blood of this wrestler later, and the pill will naturally not be missing you." ”

Steward Wu was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly kowtowed in gratitude.

After Shen Liuyun disappeared, Steward Wu carefully wrapped Xu Shan's drop of essence blood with a delicate jade bottle, and then hummed a little song and paced back and forth in the sun in his small courtyard. Soon after, someone came over and brought the pill to Steward Wu, and at the same time took away the bottle of essence blood, and Steward Wu was in a good mood, and sent the man out of the door diligently before returning to his residence.

After opening the medicine bottle with anticipation, Steward Wu's face turned blue in an instant, which is the Dragon and Tiger Pill that can increase the chance of promotion, it is clearly the Crane Spirit Pill that can only increase cultivation slightly.

When Steward Wu was trembling with anger, a drop of ink-like shadow in the dark corner of his house slowly faded, and at the same time, Shen Zhuchen, who was reading a book in the side room, a line of words appeared on the book:

Shen Liuyun seems to be generous, but he is actually greedy, and Steward Wu can plant a demon seed as a puppet.
