The ancestor of the Qin family was only in the late stage of alchemy formation, and he was the only alchemy monk in the family. Compared with the powerful Ximen family, he was really weak and pitiful.
Naturally, he did not have the ability to obtain the Ximen family's treasure, so he set his sights on a more powerful force.
The ancestor of the Qin family sent people to spread the word that the Ximen family would establish the seventh holy land.
He also preached that the Ximen family has multiple secret realms rich in resources, and there are even fifth-level spiritual veins in the secret realms. It is only a matter of time before the Ximen family establishes a holy land.
Some news spreads very fast. Many monks investigated and found that the Ximen family did have a large amount of resources for cultivating immortals, but the source was mysterious.
This almost confirmed the rumors. The Spirit Sword Sect monks guarding Donghuang City took this matter very seriously and reported it quickly.
Later, the entire Eastern Land knew the news, and then the news spread to the Central Plains. Finally, several holy places also knew about it.
It is not an easy thing to become a holy place. The erection of every holy place is achieved through bloody fighting.
When the Sixth Holy Land was established, the Five Holy Lands immediately took action, but Jiang Xiansheng gave up his sect and fled.
After that, he showed up from time to time, beheaded several Nascent Souls in the Holy Land, razed the markets and spiritual mines in the Holy Land to the ground, and scared the Nascent Souls in the five Holy Lands to the point where they did not dare to leave the Holy Mountain.
In the end, the five holy places had to compromise and recognized the Immortal Zombie Sect as the sixth holy place, which lasted for many years.
After Jiang Xiansheng was killed by Ximen Potian, the five holy places quickly turned against him and immediately surrounded and suppressed the Immortal Zombie Sect, not only kicking him out of the ranks of the holy places, but also completely obliterating him.
Without powerful god-transforming monks in charge, and without the force sufficient to intimidate the five holy places, anyone who dares to call themselves a holy place is seeking death.
Soon, several major holy places came to find them. The Ximen family was almost uprooted, and the losses were extremely heavy. No one above the foundation of the family survived.
The family's resources and skills were looted, and because the powerful Sky-Breaking Hammer disappeared, the Ximen family was searched by various forces for a hundred years and suffered humiliation for a hundred years.
The ancestors of the Qin family were the main culprits for the Ximen family's disaster, but the ancestors of the Qin family never told outsiders about the Ximen family's new foundation and the formation of pills in four years.
This secret is only known to the elders of the Qin family. Today, including Qin Ansheng, only five people in the Qin family know about it.
When the Ximen family was in trouble, the ancestors of the Qin family took the opportunity to grab a lot of benefits, but they never found the exotic treasure.
And with the disappearance of the Sky-breaking Hammer, not only the Ximen family members were suspected, but also the affiliated families were suspected by a large number of high-level monks.
A few days before the ancestor of the Qin family was proud, the family's spiritual mountain was breached. Nearly thirty members of the family built the foundation, but only one person escaped. The ancestor of the Qin family also died with hatred.
In this twist and turn, the Qin family was playing with fire and burning themselves. It not only defrauded the Ximen family, but also harmed themselves.
The only thing worth celebrating is that the person who escaped is Zhu Ji, a core member of the Qin family.
The inheritance of the Qin family, as well as the treasures such as the skills stolen from the Ximen family, are all worn on the body, thus ensuring the inheritance of the Qin family.
"An Sheng, do you know the level of the technique you practice?"
Qin Deshui asked softly.
"Ancestor, isn't it a Xuanjie technique?" Qin Ansheng looked confused.
Qin Deshui shook his head and said sternly: "It's the Earth-level fire-based skill 'Fire Flames Burning Heaven'. The ancestor of the Qin family took advantage of the chaos and snatched it from the Ximen family."
"Earth-level fire-based skills? I actually practice earth-level skills. No wonder I can easily defeat monks of the same level."
Hearing this, Qin Ansheng suddenly realized that he had always been able to crush the other monks of the same level in his previous fights with other foundation-building families. It turned out that the technique he practiced was of a higher level.
"An Sheng, this matter is of great importance and must not be leaked out. Even the Jiedan Sect is jealous after seeing the Earth Grade Kung Fu."
Qin Shushan hurriedly warned him, fearing that his nephew's youth would expose the Qin family's background.
"Uncle, don't worry. My nephew is over sixty years old. He is not a child, so he will not leak the skills."
Qin Ansheng's brows and eyes were full of joy.
"An Sheng, my Qin family has more than one earth-grade technique. The Ximen family's heritage back then was enviable. It's a pity that our ancestors failed to grab the exotic treasure, and we don't even know what it is."
Qin Deshui frowned, feeling a little regretful.
"Ancestor, judging from the current situation, the Ximen family does not seem to have a rare treasure. The cultivation levels of several main clan members are all normal, and there is no sudden improvement in cultivation level.
However, there seems to be some problems with the supply of goods at the Ximen store, especially the Linhaifang store. This should be investigated carefully. "
Qin Shuhai expressed his opinion.
"Shu Hai is right. No matter what, at least we found an anomaly. Forbidden God Shayi has been bought.
An Sheng, just make a hard trip and send it to Linhaifang in person. Once you get there, listen to your third uncle and find out the source of Ximen's goods as soon as possible. "
Qin Deshui directly ordered Qin Ansheng to go out for some exercise and gain some experience.
"Don't worry, ancestor, An Sheng will set off immediately to Linhaifang."
Qin Ansheng couldn't wait to show off, so he made some preparations and set off.
…
In the direction of Qingyang Mountain, a small flying boat was hovering. Ximen Changkong returned, and there was only one person.
Originally, Gu Xinlan wanted to come with her, but Lu Yuanshuang made a fuss in Qingyang Mountain last time, so she didn't let her daughter come with her.
"Brother, why are you back?"
As soon as Ximen Changqing walked out of the cave, he saw his elder brother coming back.
"Big brother's Double Cultivation Ceremony will be held next month. You must go."
Ximen Changkong smiled and said what he meant.
After nearly two years of delay, the double cultivation ceremony between Ximen Changkong and Gu Xinlan can finally be held.
Thanks to the effect of the Jade Saint Pill, Gu Yangyu's injuries have now mostly recovered and he can exert his strength at the sixth level of the Pill Formation.
If there were three or five more Jade Holy Pills, he could be cured. However, the Jade Holy Pills were too difficult to find and the price paid was too high. He had given up hope.
"Congratulations, eldest brother. I must go to eldest brother's dual cultivation ceremony."
"Changqing, I heard that you have a child. Let your elder brother take a look."
"Brother, please come in. By the way, Xiaoyu is pregnant too. Brother, please hurry up!" Ximen Changqing said with a smile.
"Xiaoyu and Changyu are also going to have a baby? That's great. You both ran ahead of my eldest brother."
Ximen Changkong was truly happy and lamented that he was a step too late.
"Yongxing, look quickly, this is uncle, his name is uncle."
"What a cute kid."
Ximen Changkong's eyes were full of love.
Later, Ximen Changkong went to meet several clan elders and explained his purpose of coming.
After some discussion, the clan elders decided to let Ximen Rende and Ximen Changqing go to Yunjian Mountain to participate in the Double Cultivation Ceremony.
After all, one is Ximen Changkong's biological grandfather and the other is his biological brother. It is most appropriate for them to attend the Double Cultivation Ceremony.
Sang Xiaoyu could have gone, but considering that she was pregnant with her child and it would be inconvenient on the way, it was better not to go.
###
The Double Cultivation Ceremony is no small matter. Ximen Changkong still has many things to prepare for. After staying for a few hours, he left Qingyang Mountain.
Ximen Rende and his grandson need a few more days to prepare, at least, to prepare the gifts. These require serious discussion among the clan elders.
In fact, the clan elders had discussed it last time, but the Ximen Changkong Dual Cultivation Ceremony was postponed for nearly two years, and the Ximen family's heritage has increased a lot.
According to the gift list negotiated before, it seems to be somewhat insufficient and must be renegotiated.
Ximen Changqing did not participate in the discussions of the clan elders. He stayed in seclusion for three days and personally prepared a gift for his eldest brother.
As an elite disciple of Yunjian Mountain, the eldest brother possesses the best spiritual weapon, the Chaiyun Zimu Sword, but this best spiritual weapon has no attributes and does not fit with the eldest brother's technique.
He wants to refine a high-grade fire-attributed spiritual weapon with the ability to transform and attack for his eldest brother as his personal gift.
After three days of seclusion, there are two months in the space, which is enough to refine a high-grade spiritual weapon.
In the secret realm, he obtained a large amount of second-order high-grade red fire jade from the three-headed python's lair, which can be used as the main material for refining spiritual weapons.
In order to increase the strength of the spiritual weapon, a part of the blazing iron is refined. This third-level low-grade spiritual material also has fire attributes.
The second-order high-grade red fire jade is mixed with the third-order low-grade blazing iron. The spiritual weapon forged must be of high quality.
Red fire jade is easy to handle, but refining blazing iron is much more difficult.
"Fortunately, there is the Blazing Spirit Fire, otherwise, there would be no way to refine the Blazing Iron."
Ximen Changqing wiped the sweat from his forehead and lamented that the third-level spiritual material was really not that easy to deal with.
His cultivation level is not enough, and without the help of the blazing spiritual fire, there is no way to smelt blazing iron.
After smelting a piece of blazing iron ore, it was immediately followed by purification, which consumed a lot of his energy and made him very tired.
In the end, the pure blazing iron and red fire jade were smoothly blended together. After a while of beating, the flying sword embryo was completed.
"The second-order high-grade spiritual materials are combined with the third-order low-grade materials. This embryo is powerful enough and should be able to withstand twelve forbidden formations."
Ximen Changqing had enough confidence in his weapon refining skills and carefully carved twelve second-level forbidden formations.
"bass……"
The moment the perfect high-grade spiritual weapon was successfully cast, there was an excited roar.
"The perfect high-grade spiritual weapon is not difficult to achieve as long as you are willing to add higher-quality spiritual materials."
Ximen Changqing smiled slightly and began to prepare the monster spirit for this perfect high-grade spiritual weapon.
"Fire attribute demon bird, second-order high-grade flame black bird spirit, this is good."
He took out a portion of the demon bird spirit and injected it into a high-grade spiritual weapon.
"Huh... the casting is finally completed, let's test the power first."
Ximen Changqing practiced for a while and then began to use the flaming black bird flying sword.
"The flaming black bird transforms and attacks."
"Chirp..."
A red light flashed, and a blazing firebird filled with fiery aura flaunted its power in the nine-sky space and fiercely attacked the boulder on the west side.
"bump……"
The huge heat and energy created a large pit with a radius of two feet. The stones in the pit were burned black, and the surrounding vegetation was reduced to ashes.
"Yes, the power is better than expected."
Ximen Changqing was very satisfied and took back the Flame Black Bird Flying Sword.
Holding it in your hand, you can feel the intense heat. For monks who practice fire-attribute skills, this spiritual weapon is tailor-made.
"Brother will definitely like it, Mie."
With a thought, he erased the traces of his own sacrifice and put this spiritual weapon in a brocade box made of second-level spiritual wood.
"Although Lu Yuanshuang is annoying, my sister-in-law seems to be a nice person, so just give her a bottle of beauty pill!"
Ximen Changqing took out the alchemy furnace and refined a few more beauty pills, making a bottle of ten beauty pills.
When I walked out of the retreat cave, I saw the old turtle. It had just come back and hadn't met the clan elders yet.
"Senior, you are finally back. How is the situation? What is the background of the Qin family?"
Ximen Changqing quickly asked.
"The Qin family is too close to Yunjian Mountain. If there is too much movement, it will be easily discovered by the pill-forming monks of Yunjian Mountain. However, I am not afraid of them."
The old turtle spoke confidently.
Qin Family Lingshan has a second-level high-grade defensive formation. If you want to break through it, you must use force. If the earth veins shake, it will inevitably cause a lot of movement.
It is impossible for the Danjie monks in Yunjian Mountain not to be discovered. Once many Danjie monks come to kill, it is no joke.
"It seems that we are the only ones who can take action in Lingshan of the Qin family. By the way, where are the rest of the Qin family?"
Ximen Changqing doesn't want his people to take risks together, so there won't be any problems with Lao Gui taking action to solve the Qin family's Lingshan foundation.
"The Qin family has another sixth-level foundation-building clan member who went to Linhaifang. There are four foundation-building clan members in the clan, and one person is in charge of a shop in Yunjianfang."
"The Qin family has nine major foundations, four from the clan, one from Yunjianfang, and four from Linhaifang. It seems they attach great importance to the Ximen family!"
Ximen Changqing sneered at the corner of his mouth and began to think about how to capture all the nine major foundations of the Qin family.
The four major foundations of the clan can be solved by him and Lao Gui. The foundation of Yunjianfang only has the first level of foundation and can be intercepted by grandpa.
As for the four foundation builders of Linhaifang, the ancestors led the team, the third uncle and the fifth uncle were definitely not enough, so the second uncle and the fourth uncle must be included.
If necessary, you can also ask Gu Junzhi to help, and you must wipe out all the foundations of the Qin family.
Later, Ximen Changqing and Lao Gui went to the meeting hall to discuss with several clan elders how to destroy the Qin family as soon as possible.
In the end, they agreed to Ximen Changqing's plan. The three groups of people acted at the same time, making sure to kill with one hit.
At the same time, a second plan was also formulated. Once any of the Qin family's foundations escaped, the family would immediately shrink its defenses to prevent the Qin family's foundations from retaliating.
Ximen Evergreen will use the power of Tianyan Pavilion to search for the escaped Qin family foundation. Without destroying the Qin family foundation, the Ximen family will find it hard to feel at ease.
"In half a month, Changqing and I will go to Yunjian Mountain to participate in Changkong's Dual Cultivation Ceremony. Why don't we do it before the Dual Cultivation Ceremony."
After deciding on the plan, Ximen Rende proposed the time to take action.
"Grandpa is right, this time is the best. After taking action, we escape and go straight to Yunjian Mountain.
We are going to attend the Double Cultivation Ceremony. No one can suspect that the Ximen family is on top of it, let alone the ancestors, there is no need to worry.
There will be no pill-forming monks near Linhaifang. Just go back to Qingyang Mountain after killing them. If there is a foundation-building follower, they will not be able to escape the ancestor's spiritual consciousness. "
Ximen Changqing very much recognized the time mentioned by his grandfather.
The destruction of the Qin family this time was of great importance, and it had to be done cleanly and beautifully without leaving any traces, so that no one could find out that it was the Ximen family.
The strength of Lao Turtle and Grandpa can both crush their opponents. The group of ancestors, except for the ancestors, are all too weak, so they must prepare second-level sword and shield guards for them.
###
There are only three second-level low-grade sword and shield guards in the Qingyang Mountain clan. For this operation, the fifth uncle is going to take them with him.
With these three sword and shield guards, Fifth Uncle had no pressure against Qin Anming who was on the third floor of the foundation building.
The third uncle and the second uncle will also have no problem if they work together to block Qin Anye on the second floor of the foundation.
The ancestor faced Qin Ansheng at the sixth level of foundation building, and it was a sure-win situation.
The only problem is how to deal with Qin Shuyun who is on the sixth floor of the foundation building.
The fourth uncle only has one level of foundation building. How can he be the opponent of Qin Shuyun who has six levels of foundation building? Even if he is delayed, he may not be able to do it.
For this reason, Ximen Changqing must be his fourth uncle and refine a second-level mid-level sword and shield guard. As long as there are three second-level mid-level sword and shield guards, he can trap Qin Shushan.
After the ancestor killed Qin Ansheng, the next one was Qin Shushan, and finally, all four of them were killed.
Ximen Changqing has two second-level low-grade sword and shield guards and one second-order mid-grade sword and shield guard.
You only need to refine two more, second-level mid-level sword and shield guards.
After saying hello to his grandfather, Ximen Changqing retreated with Lao Gui, opened the cave's restrictions, and entered the Nine Heavens Space.
Participating in the battle between Tianwu Sect and Canghai Sect, he obtained too many resources for cultivating immortals, and even exchanged a lot of precious resources in the Tianwu Island sect's warehouse.
Refining two second-level middle-grade sword and shield guards requires all the spiritual materials and can be completed in at most two months.
After two months in the Nine Heavens Space, Ximen Changqing successfully refined it, guarded by two second-level middle-grade swords and shields, and achieved the goal of retreat.
Later, he refined a second-level low-grade sword and shield guard and assembled two sets of Xiaosancai formations.
"Three middle-grade, three low-grade, plus the three low-grade from the clan library, there are nine second-level sword and shield guards. It is enough to trap the three foundation builders of the Qin family."
Ximen Changqing smiled slightly. With these nine sword and shield guards, the Qin Family Foundation Establishment would not be able to escape even if they did not fall into the trap.
"Changqing, it's getting late, let's get out of seclusion! Let's go out earlier and settle the Qin family's affairs earlier."
The old turtle was always impatient and suggested.
Ximen Changqing nodded, and the two left the Nine Heavens Space and handed the six sword and shield guards to Ximen Zangjian.
"There are so many second-level sword and shield guards. Counting the previous three, there are nine of them. This is equivalent to nine foundation-building monks."
Ximen Rende smiled from ear to ear and became more confident in the plan he had studied before.
"Three second-level middle-grade sword and shield guards are trapped in the late stage of foundation building. It is difficult to escape. Let Yunfei control them and trap them on the sixth floor of foundation building for a period of time. There will be no problem."
Ximen Zangjian said happily, becoming more confident in the booby trap plan. As long as the four foundation builders of the Qin family were fooled, none of them would be able to escape.
In order to be more secure, Ximen Changqing Yujian went to Jinyang Gate to invite his fourth uncle Ximen Yunfei, while Laogui went to Qingniu Island to take Ximen Yunsong back to Qingyang Mountain.
Three days later, all the personnel were ready, conducted a drill first, and then set off separately.
Ximen Changqing, his grandfather, and Lao Gui headed towards Yunjian Mountain, while the four ancestors went to set up an ambush near Linhaifang.
He also sent a Qi Practitioner tribesman to escort three second-level low-grade sword and shield guards to Ximen Renshan, and at the same time, there was also a letter.
A few days later, Ximen Changqing and three others arrived near Yunjian Mountain. Ximen Rende went to Yunjianfang for deployment, while Ximen Changqing and Lao Gui hid near the Qin family.
In addition, the four men from Ximen Zangjian also set up a formation to trap the enemy five hundred miles away from Linhaifang. As long as the Qin family established a foundation and entered, they would not be able to escape.
This is also for the sake of safety. With nine sword and shield guards, even if there is no trap formation, four members of the Qin family can still be left to build the foundation.
…
Ximen Renshan closed the family shop in Linhaifang in a panic, and left Linhaifang with five Qi Practitioners and five empty carriages.
Naturally, they could not escape this scene. The gazes of the four foundation builders of the Qin family saw that Ximen Renshan was so abnormal. The four foundation builders of the Qin family looked at each other and felt something was wrong.
"Third uncle, the source of the Ximen family's resources for cultivating immortals is unknown. This sneaky Ximen must have gone to collect resources. My nephew will follow me and have a look."
Seeing this, Qin Anming volunteered to make a request. He was frustrated last time, but this time, he wanted to make meritorious deeds.
"Fifth brother, let me go! You have forgotten the lesson learned last time. If you encounter a powerful monster insect again, you will make trouble again."
Qin Ansheng smiled slightly and teased his clan brother.
This clan brother has always compared himself with him since he was a child, and even slandered him with bad words.
He was also extremely disgusted with this. After so many years, it was still difficult for the relationship between the two to improve.
"Qin Ansheng, don't be too proud. If you encounter that powerful monster insect, you will end up with the same fate."
Qin Anming was angry. The other party revealed his scar, which made him feel unhappy and extremely unhappy.
"Do you think I will be like you?"
Qin Ansheng smiled disdainfully. He really felt that his clan brother was a waste, and he could be attacked by a second-level low-grade monster insect until he fainted.
"Third uncle, this time there is the Forbidden God Shayi. What happened last time will definitely not happen again. Give my nephew another chance."
Qin Anming looked at Qin Shuyun and demanded strongly.
"Third uncle, let An Sheng go! For the benefit of the Qin family, and also to find out the secrets of the Ximen family as soon as possible."
Qin Ansheng refused to give up and insisted on grabbing this task.
"Qin Ansheng..."
"..."
"That's enough, shut up and look at what you look like, you are all in your fifties and sixties."
Qin Shuyun was furious and very disappointed with his two nephews. How could he rest assured that the family would be entrusted to such a smart younger generation.
When the two saw their uncle getting angry, they both lowered their heads and said nothing, but they still refused to accept each other.
"An Ye, go follow Ximen Renshan. Remember, just don't lose it. Be careful and put on the forbidden gauze clothes first."
Qin Shuyun rolled his eyes at the two nephews and handed over the person who was following Ximen Renshan to Qin Anye, who only had the second floor of the foundation building.
"Third uncle, Anye has visited Ximen's shop many times. Ximen Renshan knows him, and he has the lowest cultivation level. How can we give him the task?"
Qin Anming opened his mouth to object.
"Shut up, that's it."
Qin Shuyun made the final decision and asked Qin Anye to follow him.
After Qin Anye left, he looked at the two of them and said, "Let's follow up and follow Anye. Once Anye is in danger, we can rescue him in time."
The last time Qin Anming followed Ximen Changqing alone, he was attacked and fainted by a second-level monster. This incident has always troubled Qin Shuyun.
He always felt that there was something wrong here, but he couldn't tell what it was.
This time, he decided to follow Qin Anye. If something unexpected happened again, the three of them would support him together to keep Qin Anye safe.
Ximen Renshan and five tribesmen drove five empty carriages slowly, and they could not feel anyone following them behind.
But since Ximen Zangjian's letter said that the Qin family would be following him later, it must be true. They could just carry out the plan.
