Chapter 21: The Heir 2
Long Teng returned to the Ancestral Pavilion and rested for another day, and was arranged by the Ancestral Pavilion Master in a quiet place, under the protection of more than a dozen clan elders, and began the first retreat and cultivation in his life to sort out the memories that had been inherited.

When accepting the inheritance, Long Teng was simply familiar with it, and was forcibly instilled into his memory by powerful energy, if he didn't recall, think, and perceive, it would only be vague. In the process of sorting out, Long Teng was very painful, and the huge amount of information forced Long Teng to the brink of collapse several times, not because of the expectant eyes of the family elders, Long Teng's strong perseverance and the white light on his eyebrows, he had to give birth to the idea of giving up.
In the end, it was the ancestral pavilion master who was careful, and found that the situation was not right, and after consulting a large number of classics about the inheritance, he told Long Teng: "Just pay attention to the cultivation of the mind and martial arts of the Ancient Dragon Decision, as for the mark of the god of war, you can accept as much as you want, don't force it." "Long Teng passed through the guidance of the ancestral pavilion master, and only then did he get through the danger, and he did not have a mental breakdown and became demented.
The inheritance of the cultivation method and martial arts of "Ancient Dragon Decision", the amount of information is pitiful compared to the mark of the god of war. Even so, it took Long Teng a month to instill it in the depths of his memory, and the cultivation method and martial arts of "Ancient Dragon Decision" were dissolved into his own memories.
The inherited "Ancient Dragon Decision", compared with the ancestral pavilion master's transmission, is both comprehensive and complete, but also meticulous, and has captured all the "Ancient Dragon Decision" mental methods, all cultivation directions, every detail in the cultivation process, and precautions. As for the martial arts, the gap between them and the ancestral pavilion master is even greater, and it is not at the same level at all, and it records the most profound martial arts of the Long family-sword qi. In the process of merging the inheritance, Long Teng also discovered two secrets, one is the "Ancient Dragon Decision" mental method, which is only suitable for most people in the Long family to cultivate, if it is not a person from the Long family, even if he gets the "Ancient Dragon Decision" mental method, he will not be able to cultivate successfully;
Regarding the Mark of the God of War, Long Teng spent a lot of effort, and only after those sixteen: "I saw an unimaginable and huge planet in a pitch-black space, and every time I wanted to see the planet clearly, Long Teng's mind would be split and blurred. After several efforts and tortures, Long Teng only knew that the surface of the planet is composed of continents and waters, the continents are vast, and the waters are quiet and distant.
During Long Teng's retreat and cultivation in the Ancestral Pavilion, the surrounding environment was extremely quiet, and no one came to disturb him. Long Teng was tired of coping, and the mental and spiritual pressure brought by the inheritance, he concentrated on meditation and cultivation wholeheartedly, and melted his memory. It's really a state of mind that doesn't listen to things outside the window and only reads the books of the sages. "The recent changes in the situation of Gu Long Xing have been isolated by those elders of the Ancestral Pavilion, and it seems that they have nothing to do with Long Teng. In fact, otherwise, the internal atmosphere of the Long family is quietly changing because of the relationship between Long Teng.
Under the auspices of the head of the family, the heads of more than a dozen departments and the elders of each lineage of the Long family held several emergency secret meetings. Those who know the inside story know that what is being discussed is not the extinction of the Luo Danlun Dragon family branch, but the issue of establishing Long Teng as the heir of the head of the family. After the end of the ancestor worship ceremony, due to the branch annihilation incident, the dragon family who stayed on the ancient dragon star knew that the high-level of the family held such a high-density emergency meeting, which had an unusual taste, and thought that the family was discussing the action plan for the revenge of the Lordaeron branch.
The tense atmosphere lasted for more than two months, although the secrecy work was done very well, but due to the increasing number of people involved, there was still a little bit of news spread in the Long family, as the news spread more and more widely, everyone knew that the reason for this emergency meeting was not for the branch annihilation incident, but that Long Teng, with the strong support of the ancestral pavilion master, would be made the heir of the head of the Long family, and was recognized by the executive elders of the Long Wutang, the heads of various departments and the elders of each vein who participated in the emergency meeting.
One stone stirred up a thousand waves, which is undoubtedly another major news after the ancestor worship ceremony and the tragedy of destroying the door. After the news came out, the members of the Long family, including Long Teng's parents, felt inexplicable and couldn't believe that it was true. Although everyone was thinking: "At this time, the ancestor worship ceremony has been disturbed, and there is no clue about the tragedy, and establishing the heir of the head of the family is undoubtedly one of the best ways to stabilize the family's military heart, but the person chosen makes everyone feel worried." ”
The heir of the head of the family is the foundation of the stability of each family, the guarantee of passing on from generation to generation, and the manifestation of successors. Especially those who know Long Teng's past and cultivation, are all saying: "In such an eventful season, how can Long Teng be appointed as the heir of the head of the family, it is a bit ridiculous. "If it weren't for the support of those in power in the clan, it is estimated that there would be no revenge, and the dragon family gathered on the ancient dragon star would be in chaos first.
Families are different from sects, they do not have the support of a huge population base, and they can be tapped at will in human society, and there are a lot of talents to use. The strength of the family depends on the qualifications of the children of each generation. It is very difficult for a family like the Long family to choose the heir of the head of the family and adopt the inheritance system of the sect that is generally eliminated by the big families of human society, but after all, there are not many people in the sect, and every thousand years, those clansmen in the sect who are far away from the current head of the family, in addition to standing on their own, also have to leave the sect and enter other sects, and develop in each vein. This makes the qualifications of the heirs of the head of the family uncontrollable, and the cultivation is not ensured. No one dares to guarantee that a sect with a small number of people will have outstanding talents to inherit the head of the family. But many people don't understand why the Long family has continued this tradition.
A god of war commented on the head of the Long family and said: "The Long family is warlike and strong, if each generation of the head of the family is wise and martial, the Long family is estimated to have declined long ago." "It may be in response to the words of this god of war, after the first head of the Long family determined the sect system, the two martial gods that appeared later, although they were not from the sect, both expressed support for this system and did not change it. The only difference is that the heir to the head of the family must be able to cultivate the "Ancient Dragon Decision" mental method.
The current head of the Long family, Long Teng's grandfather, has been anxious, worried and troubled about choosing an heir since he took the position of head of the family. Compared with other major families, although the range of choices is also limited, after all, the heir of the head of the family will be chosen by the children of the whole family. And the Long family, out of consideration of the provisions of the clan rules, his range of choices is limited, that is, the hundreds of men in the sect, although there have been countless outstanding female heads of the family in human society for tens of thousands of years, but the Long family has never been, at most the wife of the head of the family assists in housework.
Among these hundreds of people, there are still some people who are not suitable for cultivating the Heart Method of the Ancient Dragon Decision. This narrows down the options a lot. And because of various other reasons, in the end, qualified, and in line with the family rules, there are only a dozen candidates who can become the heir of the head of the family. Now that there is finally an heir to the head of the family who is recognized by the family, he naturally tries his best to promote it.
The choice of the heir of the head of the family this time should have belonged to Long Teng's father's generation, because they were the strong contenders for the qualifications of the head of the family. As for the things that have been passed down from generation to generation, no one has thought of them. This time, the head of the family did not choose his next generation, but directly chose his grandson Long Teng, which was indeed unexpected. And Long Teng also got the full support of the ancestral pavilion and passed the approval of Long Wutang, Long Teng naturally became the heir of the head of the family, but he was the only heir, which many people did not expect. Everyone didn't know why, and the upper echelons of the Long family didn't give any explanation. But some well-informed people have heard of it, and it is said to have something to do with Long Teng's strange right arm and the process of receiving the inheritance. What is the specific reason, only the current head of the Long family, the master of the Ancestral Pavilion and those elders of the Dragon Martial Arts know the truth. And Long Teng, who was in retreat and cultivation, didn't know that he had somehow become the heir to the head of the family.
The news that Long Teng became the heir of the head of the family spread far and wide, causing a commotion in the Long family, no one thought of it, no one knew the reason, all kinds of speculations filled the air inside the Long family building and the ancient dragon continent. When the head of the family officially announced the decision, some people sighed: "The rumors are actually true." “
When the clansmen attended the heir announcement party, they looked at Long Teng with more strange eyes. These strange gazes were not to see how handsome Long Teng's face was, but to look at his distinctive left arm. Long Teng's left arm was thicker than his right, three times thicker, and covered with black scale armor. Only when Long Teng cultivated, he would not be disgusted with this arm, because he felt that there was a strange energy there, which was helpful for cultivation. Long Teng wondered why he had a different left arm, but he never thought that because of this arm, he would become the heir of the head of the family, and the only heir.
In the family gathering, I saw Long Teng's poor cultivation, in this society where martial arts are respected, this family that has produced three martial gods, how do you think Long Teng is an outlier. Throughout the banquet, Long Teng, who had just come out of the customs, had been by the side of the head of the family. As the heir of the head of the family, during the banquet, he must accompany the head of the family, welcome the people who participate in the heir's announcement party, and greet them one by one, and perform aristocratic etiquette, which makes Long Teng very uncomfortable. But there is no way, all the people who appear here are the children of the clan, the blood relationship that is separated by 10,000 years or tens of thousands of years, without everyone's joint efforts, they would have become passers-by a long time ago, let alone a family.
At the end of the reception, Long Teng did not return to his parents, but accompanied his grandfather to the head of the family's office, and when he entered the door, Long Teng asked: "Grandpa, why did you choose me to be the heir of the head of the family?"
Long Teng's grandfather did not answer Long Teng's question directly, but said to the ancestral pavilion master who was standing aside: "Pavilion master, it's up to you to explain." ”
The Ancestral Pavilion Master had a close relationship with Long Teng, and when he saw Long Teng in a dazed state, he slowly spoke: "Actually, I determined you to be the heir of the head of the family, as the outside world has rumored, because of your strange left arm and the process of accepting the inheritance. "Obviously, the Pavilion Master of the Ancestral Pavilion didn't want to tell Long Teng everything, and he also wanted to talk more about this matter. After thinking for a while, he added: "You don't have to care about your current identity, you just need to cultivate hard and strive to become the fourth god of war of the Long family as soon as possible." You are the person who has the best chance of reaching that realm in the nearly 20,000 years of our Long family. Although the Pavilion Master of the Ancestral Pavilion was reluctant to explain too much, Long Teng was still shocked by the little news he revealed, and thought to himself: "God of War, what an unattainable thing that is. “
