It takes a very big touch to make a monk lose control of his expression.
As a Nascent Soul cultivator, Ji Tao was a little shocked inside, but it wasn't like that. He was pretending on purpose.
There was some shock, but not because of the other party's high level of cultivation, but because he was shocked that the other party would brag like this.
The other party was a minor foundation-building cultivator more than two thousand years ago, and now he has become a Mahayana cultivator? This is a challenge to his basic understanding of the world of immortality.
There is still a slight possibility that he followed the great monk in the Tribulation Stage back then, but he knew that he was just a god-transformation monk from an ordinary cultivating immortal family. Speaking of the integration stage, he could barely believe it, but the Mahayana stage was really It's a bit far away.
As a Nascent Soul cultivator, he knew that some Spirit Transformation cultivators would have some weird hobbies and develop habits, and it was very possible for them to do it occasionally. It was not uncommon for cultivators to tell lies.
As for the specific realm of the other party, he was really not sure. It looked very powerful, but there were also some techniques in the world of immortality that were not practical and could only be used as bluffs. If the other party liked to deceive, it was very possible that he had practiced this technique specifically.
But what is certain is that the other party must be a high-level monk. After all, the Nascent Soul monk only has a lifespan of more than a thousand years at most, and the other party is already close to three thousand years old, so there is a high probability that he is a Return to Void cultivator.
The spiritual consciousness and the robes on the surface of the body are also an effective way to judge the opponent's strength, but the two sides only touched the spiritual consciousness slightly, and he took it back. Randomly testing the spiritual consciousness is a very disrespectful behavior among monks, so he I just feel that the other party's spiritual consciousness is very powerful and vast.
This is also possible because he is just a Nascent Soul cultivator and lacks experience. If he hangs out with various high-level cultivators all day long, he can determine the approximate cultivation level of the other party even with a slight touch of his spiritual consciousness.
Unless he wants to perish, where else can he touch the spiritual consciousness of a high-level monk? As for looking at the opponent's cassock? There is a stream of light surrounding the opponent's body, and it is impossible to see through it.
Ji Tao thought he had guessed the answer, and acted a little exaggeratedly just to make the other party look happier. Although they were of the same race, after so many years, it was still unclear how much weight the family still had in the other party's heart. Looking at the ancestor, he needs the other party's care more in his heart.
"You do not believe!"
The monks are all people with meticulous observations and exquisite thoughts. The other party's thoughts almost never escaped Ji Qianyan's eyes.
"Letter!" At this moment, Ji Tao's tone and demeanor were very serious, without any flaws.
Ji Qianyan was too lazy to argue with the other party about such trivial matters. It was completely unnecessary to go out of her way to show off what a Nascent Soul cultivator wanted.
Instead, he spoke again: "Call out all the monks who can take charge of the family."
The air was quiet for a moment. Ji Qianyan was waiting for the family's god-forming monk to come out, while Ji Tao was silent for a moment and then said: "The family's capable monk is already here."
"Yourself?" The female cultivator, who knew what this meant, frowned slightly.
"There are no god-transforming monks in the family anymore. Other Yuanyings have fallen while seeking breakthroughs, and some have fallen to protect collateral families. But I am timid. After being promoted to Yuanying, I have been hiding in the clan. Currently, I am the only Yuanying monk in the family." When talking about the situation in the clan, Ji Tao's tone was a little low.
He didn't know if this clan member who had been away from home for many years came back because he wanted to attack the spiritual veins. Even so, he didn't want to let go of this opportunity, because he was afraid that the family's strength had weakened to such an extent that the other party would already look down on him.
"I don't want the family to have declined so much." Then Ji Qianyan's eyes fell on the family's only Yuanying monk: "You are not timid, but the family must have a Yuanying monk no matter what, otherwise it will be really doomed."
Ji Tao didn't say anything about this, which was regarded as acquiescence.
Ji Qianyan also suspected whether the other party was lying, but the possibility was too small. Since the monk who can take charge of the family is here, she spoke directly: "Although I left the family for more than two thousand years, I was born in the Ji family after all. Now I am a cultivator." For the sake of success, I want to find a spiritual vein for my family to recuperate, I wonder if you are willing?"
It is easy to kill someone, but it is not easy to want others to accept your ideas. It has nothing to do with your strength. After all, it is normal for the other party to have doubts after being away from the family for too long.
This sentence fell into the ears of the Yuanying monk, and it was a rhetoric to attack the sect's spiritual veins. The other party did not dislike the low strength of the family monks, so he was naturally very willing, but this kind of thing involved the safety of the entire clan, so he had to be more cautious. Some: "I need to confirm my identity in detail. I wonder if my ancestor is willing."
The previous verification method was not rigorous, and Ji Qianyan had no objection: "Okay."
Although the Ji family does not have the same family law as the Li family, it still has a unique way of verifying blood. Ji Qianyan gave the other party a drop of blood, and then Ji Tao verified it under his eyes.
During this process, Ji Qianyan's pressure weakened a lot in an instant, and Ji Tao was startled: Is there something wrong with the other party? You can't hide anymore now, do you want to take action?
It’s no wonder that he has this idea. High-level monks above the divine transformation stage are hard to come by. It’s really hard to believe that a monk with such power suddenly appears in his family. But now that the family has a glimmer of hope, he doesn’t want to Let it go.
Fortunately, no problems occurred.
Ji Qianyan reacted because a Void-Returning cultivator entered her range of perception, and judging from the direction of its movement, it would pass near her. Looking at the only Yuanying left in the family, she thought before she recognized her own strength. Let the other person take a look.
Moreover, the decline of the family to this point is somewhat inseparable from the high-level monks nearby. They may kill the wrong person, but they will be killed anyway.
If she keeps showing the power of the Mahayana stage, the opponent will definitely run away after approaching a certain distance, but with hidden strength, even if the opponent chooses to avoid it, they will not be too far away.
"I will call all the monks above the foundation establishment level in the ancestral land to come and see me..." After verifying the bloodline and finding that there were no problems, Ji Tao put down his last worry, but before he finished speaking, he saw someone appearing in the distance. He saw the figure of a high-level monk, and the rest of his words became: "...there is a high-level monk, ancestor, run away."
When Ji Tao saw the other person coming straight towards him, he knew that he had bad intentions, and in his understanding, only when he felt that his strength could stabilize the opponent, a high-level monk would kill another high-level monk. At this moment, he was even more convinced of his previous judgment.
Ji Qianyan also didn't expect that the other party would have the courage to rush over after discovering her. But after a little thought, she understood that in the world of immortality, the most common person was a god-transformation monk, and the other party mistook her for a god-transformation monk.
This is indeed the case. After the Void Returning cultivator discovered the situation here, although it was difficult to judge Ji Qianyan's strength, the Nascent Soul cultivator on the ground could tell it at a glance.
Being with a Yuanying monk is basically like a god-incarnation monk. Especially when you see the other person's body shining with brilliance, you feel like you are trying to make something mysterious.
Expelling the transformed gods and trying to kill the Nascent Soul, thinking of these, the returning monk became faster.
Ji Tao had already left the spot while shouting, but soon heard a cold word: "Why run?"
One sentence made him stop again and look at the female cultivator who suddenly popped out of his house, with a little uneasiness in her eyes.
Are you so courageous? This was what he thought in his heart, but he was also afraid that his hasty escape would make the other party give up on the idea of helping the family, so he chose to watch first before the situation became very bad.
As the distance got closer and closer, some doubts arose in the mind of the approaching cultivator: not only did the opponent not run away, but he seemed to be still waiting for him.
It looks like a bluff, but does any monk risk his own safety by bluffing? However, he did not give up because of this. If the situation was not right, he would just run away. With teleportation, he had nothing to fear.
Ji Qianyan did not wait until the opponent was close to a certain level before taking action. After all, there was a Yuanying, the only child of the family, beside him. If he was chasing her, if the opponent took the opportunity to kill him, it would be a loss.
So when he took action when he was still three teleport distances away from the opponent, he simply teleported three times in a row.
As soon as this situation occurred, both the incoming Void-Returning monk and Ji Tao had this thought in their minds: How could any monk consume his teleportation times before fighting?
Soon the answer emerged in his mind: Unless the other party didn't care about the number of teleports at all.
Not long ago, a scene of a certain Mahayana female cultivator teleporting multiple times also appeared at the same time. At this moment, the two of them felt that the female cultivator in front of them overlapped with that of the Mahayana female cultivator.
Sensing the crisis, the monk who returned to the void subconsciously teleported back, and then flashed continuously. If the opponent could continue after teleporting four times, he would run as far as he could. If not, he will continue to take action after testing.
But Ji Tao only had one thought at the moment: She might really be in the Mahayana stage. As long as more than four teleportations are achieved, this matter can basically be confirmed, because in the entire world of immortality, there are fewer people who can do this than the great monks in the tribulation stage.
The result did not disappoint him. Ji Qianyan not only used the fifth teleportation, but also the sixth and seventh times. She finally flew back after killing the returning monk.
At this moment, the Yuanying monk's steady heart could no longer hold on. This was the Mahayana period! Thinking that the other party said that he wanted to find a spiritual vein for the family, he still needed his own monks to follow him in the attack? Even that spiritual vein is very likely to be a large spiritual vein.
Even in an instant, even if Ji Qianyan failed to break through the tribulation, it was all over how much life he had left.
"All family foundation-building and above monks, quickly stop everything you are doing and come out to pay homage to the family ancestor immediately." At this moment, the Yuanying monk just wanted to do his best to perform well.
Since Ji Qianyan appeared, the monks in the Ji family did not know the real situation. Many people were in fear. When they heard the news, they were filled with joy. A family that cultivates immortals can only cultivate with high-level monks. It is better to survive in the fairy world, otherwise it will be like a rootless duckweed that may be destroyed at any time.
When Ji Qianyan flew back, all the monks who stayed in the clan had already run out. In total, there were one Yuan Ying, seven Jin Dan, and ninety-five Foundation Establishers.
"Welcome ancestor to return to the family..." the voice sounded over and over again.
In the minds of some Ji family monks, even if a high-level monk appears in the family, they should normally go back to the clan to pay respects. It would be too blatant to go directly outside like this.
As if he had guessed what these monks were thinking, Ji Tao sent a message and said: "Do you know what kind of cultivation my ancestor is? I told you that it is the Mahayana period. Do you know about the Mahayana period?"
Upon hearing these words, many Ji family monks had different expressions. Some of them obviously wanted to refute something, but finally held back.
Many monks shouted in unison, and the voices should not be underestimated. Ji Qianyan just nodded slightly, and did not care about the strange expressions of these monks. She directly said to Ji Tao: "There are some monks left in the clan, and all the collateral families should withdraw." .”
As for the number of branch families of the family, I didn't ask. Without thinking about it, I knew that there were only a few left.
At this moment, space fluctuations appeared in the surroundings, and several monks came through teleportation. The monks of the Ji family immediately felt that those who appeared were terrifying high-level monks.
But soon, a cold voice sounded: "Establish a super long-distance teleportation array underground here, please." At this moment, as long as you are not stupid, you will understand that the high-level monk who appears is your ancestor. Asked for help.
At this moment, the Ji family monk who originally had doubts about his Mahayana strength was shaken.
These people who appeared were all monks of the Li family. Ji Qianyan wanted to find a few formation masters of the Li family for help, and it was just a matter of words.
If she wanted to take the family monks away, the best way was to build a super long-distance teleportation array. However, the Ji family did not have this type of array before, and she couldn't set it up, so she had to find someone to help. .
In the end, except for a small number of monks who remained in the Ji family, the rest of them followed Ji Qianyan to a large spiritual vein practice. In addition, they also occupied an ordinary spiritual vein.
"I can't protect you forever. Try to grow as much as possible before I fall." After everything settled, Ji Qianyan said to Ji Tao.
"What if I can't grow up?" Faced with this situation, Ji Tao asked bravely. He could feel that although this ancestor took care of his tribe, he didn't have much emotion. What he was doing at the moment was basically It's the limit.
But it is not easy for high-level monks to grow. Even if there are a few high-level monks, they cannot guard the large spiritual veins. Some things are best discussed now.
After a moment of silence, Ji Qianyan said: "If you can't grow up, you can choose to become a subsidiary family of the Li family, but you must find me before I fall."
When the power of cultivating immortals develops to a certain extent, it will need affiliated families. This sentence is not only confidence in the future development of the Li family, but also another escape route for the family.
If the family's strength is really too weak in the end, affiliated families are also an option.
Immortal cultivating families need to reproduce. When they develop to a certain level of strength, it is not suitable to just be friends with each other. They will develop subsidiary families. Some powerful cultivating immortal families in the world of cultivating immortals usually have several subsidiary families.
