The sun and the moon fly away like a shuttle, how long will life last? But looking back at the past, only Luo Shan and Xu Wei were there.
There are no Jiazi in the mountains, and half a year has passed in a blink of an eye. It is the time of April when all the flowers are gone, and only the peach blossoms are still blooming in the longevity sect.
In the peach blossom forest, Chen Dengming, dressed in simple white clothes, entertained two old friends to watch the peach blossoms and drink peach blossom wine. He couldn't help but think of the promise he made to Xu Wei in the past.
Every year when the peach blossoms bloom, he will think of this person, and it is no exception until now. Therefore, he spent materials to arrange formations on the island, built a floating island, and planted a peach grove, but he did not erect a monument to Xu Wei.
Xu Wei's former corpse was buried in the Changchun Mountain Gate by him. It was already a piece of loess, and his soul sank into the Yinquan.
More than half a year ago, the appearance of the Yinquan Ghost Lord gradually convinced him that there should be a special world of ghost cultivation under the Yinquan. Xu Wei's former soul entered the Yinquan. day.
With a "cha" sound, the three wine glasses touched together, the wine in the glasses was rippling, and the aroma of the wine was overflowing.
"Hey, hey——"
Zhu Xun, a ghost man holding a wine glass with a sharp claw, gestured to drink. The wine reached his mouth and poured into his body, but it quickly fell on the chair.
Jiang Qiang looked at this scene with both amusement and sadness. He saw Chen Dengming drinking all the wine in the glass before he dared to drink again.
He looked around at the peach blossoms and felt a lot of emotion in his heart. He couldn't help but think of the Taoist monks who were killed by Qian Yuan.
Everything in the past seems like yesterday.
Qian Yuan, the little leader of the gathering place in the past, was nothing compared to him now, and to Brother Chen, it was even less worth mentioning.
He once stood under the peach blossom tree, looking at the peach blossoms and remembering someone, and secretly wished Brother Chen a good marriage with Miss Xu.
Unexpectedly, the peach blossom is still there, but the human face has disappeared.
"Qiangzi, you are now at the eighth level of Qi training. Keep working hard and strive to break through the Foundation Establishment before you turn 100! As for the Foundation Establishment Pill, don't worry."
Chen Dengming put down his wine glass, reached out and patted Jiang Qiang on the shoulder, smiling.
Jiang Qiang was moved in his heart and quickly put down his wine glass. He felt a little nervous and said with fear, "Brother Chen, it's not good to have you help me all the time. I'm worried that someone in the sect will gossip. You are the leader now after all."
Chen Dengming laughed, shook his head and said, "Qiangzi, this is my personal use of my own pocket to help you, old brother. It has nothing to do with the public interests of the sect and no one can comment on it. Don't worry."
Seeing that Jiang Qiang wanted to say more, Chen Dengming raised his hand to stop him, "Huh? If you say any more, you'll be outspoken. I'll punish myself with a drink first."
Jiang Qiang suppressed his gratitude, and without hesitation picked up the flask and poured down a glass of wine. He drank it all in one gulp, and his face suddenly turned red.
A man dies for his confidant, and Jiang Qiang feels that he is not qualified to be Brother Chen's confidant.
But Brother Chen has been so kind to him for so many years, and he is so grateful that he has nothing to repay. Compared with whether the foundation is successful or not, this kindness makes him more excited and valued.
"Brother Chen, come here, with this cup I congratulate you on getting a Kirin son this year, a grandson with a medium-grade spiritual root. With your support, he will surely have a golden elixir in the future!"
Jiang Qiang poured another glass of wine, raised his glass and smiled.
"Forget it, I drank this wedding wine last time, so I won't drink more today."
Chen Dengming waved his hand and put the wine glass upside down on the table, indicating that he would not drink anymore, but he couldn't stop the smile on his face.
More than a month ago, Chen Jing and Li Xue finally gave birth to their child.
At the age of 111, he, Chen Dengming, was blessed with a grandson. He had a middle-grade spiritual root. Although he could not be called the best, he was the heir of Chen Jing, who had no spiritual roots, so he was very lucky.
Chen Dengming named this grandson Chen Feilin, which means Qilin descended from the sky. He was very happy and congratulated. At that time, he held a banquet for several days to celebrate.
The birth of Chen Feilin means that the second person with spiritual roots is born in the Chen family. Under such a virtuous cycle, there will only be more and more children of the Chen family with spiritual roots in the future, and they will truly be promoted from a large mortal family to a cultivator. The family has completed a class leap.
Mother is more valuable than son, and Li Xue was praised by Chen Dengming for this.
The magical weapons and pills in the foundation-building stage were nothing to him, a father-in-law who had been cultivating immortals for twenty years and had no chance of killing his enemies. He had given them a lot.
However, after the carnival, Chen Dengming still likes to return to the calm after the glitz is gone.
He has long been accustomed to a life of cultivating alone, with at most one or two confidantes by his side. The family's practice of cultivating immortals is not suitable for him.
It would be no problem for him to help a family that is connected to him by blood.
But it is difficult to keep him tied to the family.
At this time, Jiang Qiang saw that Chen Dengming was not very interested, so he immediately put down his wine glass and stood up.
"Qiangzi, just take a walk and go back. You and I should hurry up and practice."
Chen Dengming rolled his sleeves and smiled, and glanced at Zhu Xun, the ghost guy who had already gotten into the wine jar to take a bath, and felt dejected.
This old brother from the past is the only one who can speak now, Jiang Qiang.
If Jiang Qiang breaks through the foundation building, he can still talk and drink with him in his free time.
If there is no breakthrough, then life will pass by in a hurry, and the old brother may have to be sent away.
As for using his personal resources to give his old brother some foundation-building pills, this has become a simple matter, and he will not calculate it so clearly.
It is true that immortality is the ultimate goal of cultivating immortality, but the journey to immortality should not be boring. There should be at least some things worth remembering, and the friendship between Taoists is one of them.
In his previous life, he admired a person who was known as Shengtian Banzi.
Before he rose, he was looked down upon, and many villagers supported him to survive and grow. After he rises, every dog in the village will be cared for. Only in this way can he be a real man, a good man, and I will never be alone.
After the flower viewing was over, Chen Dengming returned directly to the cave and continued to practice with concentration.
Now as the head of the Longevity Sect, he has avatars and many elders to handle sect affairs. In theory, as long as there is no big incident, he has a lot of time and energy to focus on cultivation. This is also a kind of enjoy.
As early as more than a month ago, Su Yanyan had approached him privately to discuss the issue of dealing with the evil star Dongfang Huayuan.
According to the responses from several other Yuanying master uncles, they had already found Qu Shenzong and communicated about the issue of the evil star Dongfang Huayuan.
The conclusion drawn is that what Dongfang Huayuan said is most likely true.
And his current situation must be very bad, so he had to ask for help from Chen Dengming, who is also the inheritor of the human immortal Taoism.
What he needs to do next is to further test Dongfang Huayuan and determine its current status.
After it is completely determined that there is no harm, we can discuss the final cooperation.
This task does not require too much energy. Even Chen Dengming is not in a hurry to find Dongfang Huayuan himself. He only waits for the person who wants to come to him to take the initiative.
During this process, he naturally spent most of his time on normal daily practice.
A small amount of time is used to practice magic and observe the growth process of "Sui Jingshi", a believer in Xianghuo.
In the past half year, although his cultivation has been steadily improving, he is still far from a breakthrough. However, after the spiritual root qualification of Xianghuo believer 'Sui Jingshi' was improved, the bottleneck of cultivation that has been troubled for many years has been broken through, and his cultivation is also improving steadily.
This change was seen by many incense believers, and their belief in the Holy Spirit Immortal Lord could not help but become deeper. The faint magic contained in the last bit of faith power also completely dissipated.
What kind of extraterrestrial demon lord? I have believed in it for many years and can't even upgrade my spiritual roots. Go to hell!
This situation was an unexpected surprise, which made Chen Dengming quite happy. He felt that it was not a bad idea to send finished spiritual roots for experiments, and finally made a wave of incense believers completely change into his shape.
Now this group of monks has not practiced magic cultivation for a long time, and has almost faded out of the sight of the Four Seas Cultivation Alliance.
It only takes a few more years of dormancy before he can be completely cleansed.
Chen Dengming was able to obtain a strong cultivator force for free.
Whether it is used for personal deployment or for the future construction of the sect and Chen family, this is a good force. After all, there are four people building the foundation alone. A monster in the Golden Core stage is already comparable to a small Sect.
"The finished golden spiritual root has been observed for more than half a year without any problems, and the finished water spiritual root hidden on the other side has not been found by Yinquan Ghost Lord.
There is nothing strange in the ruins of the deep sea. It seems that the Yinquan Ghost King may not appear again."
In the cave, Chen Dengming was practicing while making secret calculations.
"To be on the safe side, let's wait for more than ten years before talking. Even if Sihai launches a counterattack, it will only happen within thirty years or at least twenty years. I don't have to be so anxious. Yinquan Guijun's fishing started thousands of years ago, and it is better than mine. I’m much more patient.”
Thinking about it in his mind, Chen Dengming suppressed his temper and continued to start his longest retreat.
In the blink of an eye, twelve years of a zodiac cycle passed by.
In the Chen family's mansion, a spiritual light suddenly rose and quickly flew through the air in the direction of the longevity sect.
Immediately, several spiritual lights flew up inside the mansion, calling out urgently.
"Little ancestor, hurry up and slow down. You have just broken through the third level of Qi training. Flying at high altitude consumes too much energy and is not stable enough!"
"Don't be afraid. I have the spirit flame wheel that Grandma He refined for me. It will protect me on its own. You can't catch up with me yet!"
In the aura ahead, a young man who looked strong and childish was laughing, stepping on two wheel-shaped magic weapons that spun out billowing wind and fire, and galloped away.
The hunchback and others who were following behind saw this and were so frightened that their hearts jumped out of their throats, and they quickly shouted and chased after them.
This little master has just learned how to fly in a pilot, and now he is flying so high.
With their third-level Qi refining skills, no matter how exquisite their magical weapons are, their souls will be consumed very quickly. Once they fall, they will die miserably.
"Hurry up and catch up! These days are the days when my grandpa comes out of seclusion. When he comes out of seclusion this time, my grandpa will definitely enter the late stage of Jindan."
Chen Feilin's childish voice came from the front.
"This kid Feilin flew out so quickly, hey! Madam, you don't have to worry about it."
At this time, a figure quickly walked out of the Chen family's mansion and glanced at the sky, his expression full of helplessness and unconcealable joy.
He is a monk who will never be able to fly into the sky by his own power and become a flying monk.
As a result, his son Chen Feilin was only twelve years old, and he could already fly to the sky and escape from the earth, and he was already a third-level qi-training monk.
After receiving this son, Chen Jing felt that his regret that he could not become a monk and embark on the path of cultivating immortals was completely gone.
All this is thanks to him having a good father and a good wife.
But at this moment, a cold snort came from the back room, "I don't care? What do I care about? Chen Jing, you are useless and can't fly into the sky. Your son has done it. You should be happy. Is it even more important?" Just like me, lock your child at home all day long?"
This tone was very unkind, and even contained a hint of resentment.
However, the person who spoke was Chen Jing's wife, Li Xue, a monk in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment.
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the entire Chen family seemed to have entered the depths of winter in March, with many servants remaining silent.
Chen Jing was startled for a moment, then turned around and walked into the house, smiling.
"Madam, I didn't mean that. You don't have to be so angry, and I'm not locking you up. If you want to go out for a walk, can I still stop you?"
After being married for more than ten years, Chen Jing is now almost forty years old. He is no longer the young and energetic young man he once was. He has also become accustomed to the many dissatisfactions in his wife's tone.
The so-called pessimism at forty means that he has already known for a long time that Li Xue felt a little aggrieved for marrying a mortal like him.
This is also the reason why he has been willing to protect his wife and tolerate her for so many years after seeing clearly.
At this time, he also thought that Madam was just complaining as usual, and he only needed to laugh and comfort her as usual. Life was going on, after all, they already had a child.
However, when Li Xue in the room looked at Chen Jing who walked in with a smile, strong resistance and disgust arose in her heart again.
She was tired of being imprisoned next to her mortal husband every day, tired of everything here.
Her disgust has become even stronger since her father Li Rong had an accident while at sea a few years ago and never returned.
She desperately wanted to leave, escape from here, especially her father-in-law, who was the head of longevity, who frightened her.
Now that the other party is about to leave seclusion, it is said that this time she will break through to the late stage of Jindan. I am afraid that she will not be able to escape by then.
At this time, listening to Chen Jing's perfunctory words of comfort, her face turned cold and she stood up with a cold snort.
"You didn't lock me up, but every time I go out for a long trip, there are a few followers following me. You don't know it!"
Chen Jing was startled, and then said with a disapproving smile, "Madam, why are you talking about this again? My father took special care of them following you, and it's not peaceful outside.
Since Master Taishan disappeared a few years ago, your safety, madam, is my biggest concern, and it is a good thing that they are following you. "
"But I hate this, I hate everything here."
Li Xue roared in her heart, but she didn't say a word. She just glanced at Chen Jing coldly.
Chen Jing suddenly felt like two cold bolts of electricity. The madam's cold eyes seemed to have changed. Her dark eyes were so strange and evil that it made him feel chilled all over.
But at this moment, a collar around his neck began to shine, instantly dispelling the coldness.
Chen Jing was startled, and when he came to his senses, he realized that the figure of his wife Li Xue had disappeared, but the cold gaze that pierced his heart just now seemed to be imprinted in the depths of his soul, unforgettable and full of uneasiness.
"lady."
Chen Jing's heart skipped a beat and he quickly walked to the bedroom.
Thanks to the leader of the Great Sage of Nine Heavens for the reward! I’m thinking of adding more updates to the leader in the next two days! I originally decided to add it tomorrow, but because I was a bit stuck today, I gradually entered a key turning point in the plot! The protagonist will soon need the golden elixir to prepare for the Nascent Soul, counterattack, etc., so the writing is relatively slow, so the update is scheduled for tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
