After returning from Wanningfang City, Shangguanfeng escorted Fu Changsheng all the way to the vicinity of Qili Mountain. Then he stopped, patted the storage bag, and in a flash of light, the two boxes floated towards Fu Changsheng:
"Chang Sheng, Hong Yu and I will not go over to join in the fun of your Fu family's canonization celebration. This is our intention. Please accept it and let us know before you go to the fiefdom. We will contact you again at that time."
On the way back.
Shangguan Feng has revealed that the three major eighth-grade aristocratic families have issued recruitment orders to the seven major aristocratic families in order to deal with the Qili Mountain Demon Cave.
Fu Changsheng was relieved when he heard this.
The magic cave was discovered.
This shows that in the next few years, the top ten aristocratic families in Huainan will be busy with this matter, so they will pay less attention to their newly promoted quasi-ninth-grade aristocratic family, which is a good thing.
Now is the time for the Fu family to hide their strength and bide their time.
Farewell to Shangguan Peak.
When returning to Luofeng Mountain.
From a distance, you can see Zushan decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, with people coming and going, making it very lively.
The eldest brother Fu Changren and the third brother Fu Changli, who were greeting guests at the mountain gate, saw Fu Changsheng from a distance and immediately greeted him with joy: "Master, it's been a long journey, thank you for your hard work!"
The Fu family can live today.
Fu Changsheng is undoubtedly the biggest contributor.
The eldest brother Fu Changren bent down unconsciously and said:
"The head of the family, the new Chief Liu of Anyang County, Chief Lei and Chief Wu are already waiting in the banquet hall. Do you want to go and meet them, or not?"
"Just let Mei Zhen handle it. In addition, the canonization ceremony will be over after the guests have finished the banquet."
The top ten aristocratic families are busy dealing with the Demon Cave issue.
The Fu family is singing and dancing here, and the impact is not good after all.
"Yes, Master"
Fu Changren quickly lowered his head and waited until the sound of Fu Changsheng's footsteps went away before he straightened up. The third brother Fu Changli on the side was a little puzzled:
"Brother, now that we are all members of an aristocratic family, it is not too much to hold a flowing banquet for seven days and seven nights. Isn't the head of the family too cautious?"
"Be careful!"
Fu Changren immediately glared at Fu Changli:
"You can criticize the head of the family. Since the head of the family has given this order, he has his own considerations. We will just do it."
"yes"
Fu Changli could only mumble.
Naturally, they dare not disobey the family leader's decision.
Fu Changren said:
"Now that the head of the family has spoken, we don't need to stay here anymore. Let's close the mountain gate."
The two of them returned from the mountain gate to the banquet hall.
The three patriarchs sitting at the head of the group saw Fu Changren appear and quickly stood up and said:
"Fellow Daoist Fu, is Senior Fu back from Huainan Mansion?"
"Well, the owner of the family has returned to the mountain. However, he has returned to the backyard to rest after a long journey. Today, I will accompany you to have a few more drinks for you. Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to come and participate in our Fu family celebration."
Fu Changsheng didn't even show his face.
The three clan leaders looked at each other with hesitation in their eyes.
Because they had been sitting here for most of the day, most of the other ninth-grade aristocratic families in Anyang County had sent people to deliver congratulatory gifts, and even Shangguan Feng and Shangguan Hongyu had not shown up.
Instinctively.
They felt that something must have happened that they, the Qi Practitioner family, had no right to know about.
For a while.
They are also in a trance.
There is really an insurmountable gap between the Qi Lian family and the aristocratic family.
The three of them sent congratulatory gifts.
Afraid that the Fu family would turn over old scores, he hurriedly drank a few glasses of wine and left.
Because Fu Changsheng had already issued an order.
Therefore, Fu Changren was decisive and quickly sent the monks who came to participate in the celebration out of the clan mountain.
other side.
Liu Meizhen, who was counting the list of gifts, heard that Fu Changsheng had returned and said to Aunt Liu:
"Mommy, take out the two gifts sent by the Lei family and the Wu family and follow me to the backyard."
Arrived in the backyard.
But I saw Fu Changsheng sitting under the Silver Star Tree, holding Brother Rong in one hand, and holding the homework handed over by Brother Fan in the other hand, looking over it carefully, replying a few words from time to time, lying on his knees, like a lark. Yaoyao chattered non-stop.
Liu Meizhen saw this scene.
The smile on his face deepened.
After standing and watching for a while, he stepped forward and said to Brother Fan:
"Brother Fan, take your younger brothers and sisters to the study."
"Yes, mother"
Yaoyao hadn't seen her father for a long time, so she was a little reluctant and pursed her lips, but she still obeyed and was led to the study by Aunt Liu. Liu Meizhen hit a magic spell on the formation board in the courtyard.
A protective light shield instantly rose under the Silver Star Tree.
The couple looked at each other.
Liu Meizhen said with great tenderness:
"Husband, my trip to Nanyang Mansion went smoothly this time."
"Well, with Uncle Feng taking me, the journey has been smooth, and the people in this town are easier to talk to than expected. By the way, the people who vouched for our Fu family this time are the Liang family and the Lin family from the ninth-grade family. From now on, they will The gift list from the house will be sent back and forth according to the Shangguan family's lower order. "
Before Fu Changsheng went to Huainan Mansion, he had already mentioned the guarantor to Liu Meizhen, but he didn't know which two they were at that time.
Liu Meizhen heard this.
He nodded slightly and said:
"Husband, Tianlong County, the fiefdom of the Lin family, borders our Yunshan County. Now that the Lin family can vouch for our Fu family, it means that the Lin family is trustworthy. As the saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. We might as well use the excuse of returning gifts to get closer to the Lin family. relation."
"Oh, Mei Zhen, you already have an idea?"
"Well, the Lin family in Tianlong County is a new family, so I paid more attention to it. I remember that there is a girl in the direct line of the Lin family who is already in her late twenties and has not yet been married. Although her qualifications are only pseudo-spiritual, she is said to have a temperament. Excellent, he is a perfect match for our third brother."
Marriage is a common method used to bind aristocratic families together.
Now that the Fu family has been promoted to aristocratic family, they should also start to expand their network of contacts.
It stands to reason.
When it comes to marriage, the eldest brother Fu Changren should be given priority, but everyone knows that the eldest brother's Dantian was destroyed. The other party's practice of "Dragon Elephant Prajna Kung Fu" has not yet improved significantly, so the choice of marriage fell on the third brother. After all, the third brother is also a well-known winemaker, so marrying the direct daughter of the Lin family's pseudo-spiritual roots is considered acceptable. .
He nodded immediately:
"Mei Zhen, I personally have no objection to this matter, but it is best to talk to the third brother about this matter first, and arrange a time for him to meet this girl from the Lin family first, and then we can talk about it."
It would be bad if the marriage fails and we become enemies instead.
Liu Meizhen responded with a smile, and then handed over the two items and the gift list in her hand:
"Husband, all the items that came to give gifts have been registered, but the ones from the Lei and Wu families have not yet been opened. The box with the white background and thunder pattern was sent by the Lei family, and the other one was sent by the Wu family. They asked each other carefully Wan told me that the gift must be opened by the husband himself. "
oh?
Fu Changsheng's consciousness swept away.
I found that there were layers of restrictions on it, and it looked like it had never been opened.
Fu Changsheng was somewhat curious.
Immediately handed the box containing the Cangming Stone obtained from the trading meeting to Mei Zhen and some other purchased materials, and asked the other party to register it together. He also glanced at the list of gifts handed over by Mei Zhen and saw that they were all for his own use. If not, hand the list back to the other party:
"Meizhen, you can put the gifts on the list directly into the warehouse. I won't need them."
The end.
He gave an instruction:
"By the way, after Grandmaster Yu comes out of seclusion, he will probably start repairing the Ten Thousand Ghosts Formation. Whatever Grandmaster Yu needs at that time, the clan has it. Mei Zhen, you can let Grandmaster Yu take it."
Liu Meizhen was stunned for a moment and said in surprise:
"Husband, do you want to retreat?"
"Well, Yunshan County's fiefdom will be handed over in three years. The fiefdom is not far from Shiwandashan and the Southern Barbarian tribe. I have to take advantage of this time to improve my strength as much as possible. I will bother you, Mei Zhen, to take care of the clan affairs. deal with."
"Okay, husband, just feel free to retreat."
The family had one final dinner.
Fu Changsheng had not seen Mo Lan and his fourth sister Chang Li. When he asked, he learned that they had been in seclusion since they returned from Penglai Mountain.
He gave instructions on trivial matters in the clan.
Fu Changsheng entered the secret room and opened the magic circle.
A familiar mechanical sound came from the sea of consciousness:
"bite"
"You hand over a second-grade top-quality Cangming stone and many gifts to the clan, and get 320 contribution points."
Immediately afterwards, the contribution value on the panel soared from one thousand five hundred and eighty to one thousand nine hundred. Seeing the replenished contribution value, Fu Changsheng felt happy.
A wave of sleeves.
The boxes belonging to the Lei and Wu families appeared in front of them.
He was also very curious.
What kind of gifts will these two families give?
A magic spell entered the Lei family's white thunder pattern box. When the box was opened, a simple jade slip was placed inside. The jade slip was placed between the eyebrows.
A stream of information flows into my mind.
After a while.
Fu Changsheng opened his eyes happily:
"It turns out to be the method of sacrificing the Nine-turn Magic Lamp."
In Qinglian Mountain.
After obtaining this object from the ancestor of the Lei family, it has been shelved because there is no corresponding sacrificial formula.
This object was also obtained by the ancestors of the Lei family from the Qingxumen site. At that time, after Patriarch Lei lit the magic lamp, he summoned the will of a phoenix bird from another world to come.
According to the jade slip, the higher the cultivation level of the person who uses the nine-turn magic lamp, the stronger the power of the sacrifice, and the will of the summoned phoenix bird will also increase.
With his cultivation in the early stage of foundation building, at worst he can summon a Phoenix Bird with strength in the middle stage of foundation building:
"This is really an unexpected surprise."
Fu Changsheng was very satisfied. It seemed that the newly appointed Lei Clan leader knew how to cut off the wrists of strong men:
"What is this gift from the Wu family?"
Talk about it.
The Wu family is also a poor creature. They have been deceived by the ancestors of the Lei family for many years without knowing it. Even their ancestor died in Qingcheng Mountain and they were still kept in the dark.
A spell was thrown into the box.
Accompanied by a squeak.
The box opens. What was placed inside was a black, spherical, unknown object.
There is also a yellowed jade slip placed at the bottom of the box, which clearly states the origin of this item. It was obtained by the ancestors of the Wu family in an ancient monk's cave by chance.
But this is such a dark thing.
The Wu family has been studying it for so many years, but they still don't know what it is.
but.
When practicing, if you hold this object in your hand, it is equivalent to practicing at the second level of spiritual veins. Therefore, only the successive heads of the Wu family have the right to use this object. It is placed in a secret place in the clan all year round and is never taken outside. Never show anyone:
"It actually has such a miraculous effect."
The Wu clan leader offered such a big gift, obviously hoping that he would not remember the time when the Wu family conspired with the Lei family to kill someone with a borrowed knife.
Fu Changsheng touched the object in the box with his hand with some curiosity. Instantly, an abundant amount of spiritual energy rushed into his body from the round object. After some sensing, he found that this spiritual energy was extremely pure:
"What a treasure"
Fu Changsheng's face lit up with joy.
Holding it in his hand and observing it carefully, his consciousness glanced back and forth. Vaguely, he felt that the dark thing outside the round object was just a carapace wrapped around it.
Immediately control the true essence.
A sword beam struck the round object.
"bite!"
The round object is indeed indestructible as written on the jade slip.
Fu Changsheng pondered for a while.
A wave of sleeves.
The Yunhuan Purple Immortal Tower floats in front of you.
As he entered a magic spell into the tower, the second-floor tower door opened instantly, only to see that the little green snake in the tower had begun to slowly shed its skin, and the soul-eating worm was still lying on the blood demon sword devouring the demonic energy.
The demonic energy on the Blood Demon Sword seemed to be a little weaker than before.
The compound eyes of the soul-devouring insect are even more intensely black, like a piece of treasure.
A thought.
Urging the Soul Devouring Insect to escape from the Blood Demon Sword.
Buzz!
The soul-eating insect was happily devouring it, and it was obviously a little displeased with its master's interruption, but it still obeyed and flew out:
"Buzz buzz!"
The soul-devouring insect was instantly intrigued by the round object in his master's hand. He flapped his wings and immediately lay on the round object. He called out to his master with a "buzzing" sound, which was obviously very interesting. Desperately wanting to devour this round object.
When Fu Changsheng saw this, his eyes lit up:
"It seems that the Soul-eating Insect can swallow this round object."
A sudden thought occurred.
Ordered:
"It can only swallow the shell!"
"Buzz buzz!"
After receiving permission, the Soul-Eating Worm immediately opened its mouth and bit the round object. In an instant, wisps of black air were absorbed into its belly. However, even so, with the progress of the Soul-Eating Worm, it wanted to swallow all the shells. I'm afraid it will take quite some time.
Fu Changsheng had an idea:
"I wonder if the Yunhuan Purple Immortal Tower can be entered into the system [practice room]?"
Less than three years.
He needs to refine four second-level mid-level solid yuan pills, learn the second-level spell Aoki Years Lock, make a second-level mid-level explosive talisman, a flying escape talisman, refining the Human Emperor Banner, the Nine-turn Magic Lamp, etc. Obviously, time It's simply not enough.
This is why he did not continue to double the draw.
Just save the contribution points and use them in the [Practice Room].
Looking at the soul-eating insects happily munching on the flesh and the little green snake slowly shedding its skin in the tower, he gritted his lower teeth and said, "Give it a try."
The master put the soul-eating insects back into the second floor of the Yunhuan Purple Immortal Tower.
Take the pagoda with you.
Then a thought came to him:
"Enable [Practice Room]"
The next moment.
Buzz!
The panel vibrates.
A large amount of yellow light surged.
Then he felt a flash in front of his eyes.
The next moment he appeared in the [Practice Room], the familiar scent of sandalwood came, and the quaint and wonderful futon placed on the ground, everything was as before.
He subconsciously looked at his waist, but saw that the Yunhuan Purple Immortal Tower attached to his waist was still there.
Fu Changsheng's face immediately showed a look of ecstasy:
"It works!"
That's the case.
After that, he can bring his spiritual pet with him when he enters the [Practice Room]. Not only can he enjoy the triple time flow rate, but even his spiritual pet will also benefit. From this point of view, this contribution value is simply worth it. So worth it.
Take a deep breath.
Allow yourself to cool down from this excitement.
After sitting down on the futon.
After running the technique for a short time, he exhaled a breath of turbid energy from his heart, and immediately tapped the pill bottle in front of him, and instantly a Yuan-Guarding Pill fell into his belly.
boom!
The Guyuan Pill fell into the Dantian and immediately turned into a majestic medicinal power, like a wild horse galloping wantonly, the limbs and bones seemed to be torn apart, and bursts of severe pain came.
But Fu Changsheng, who had experienced the pain of building a foundation, didn't even frown. He methodically operated his skills, used the true essence to gather the power of the medicine, and began to refine it bit by bit.
Cultivation has no time.
In the blink of an eye.
Three years passed by in a flash.
Fu Changsheng in the practice room suddenly opened his eyes:
"Build the third level of foundation!"
Look inside the Dantian.
But he saw that the Dantian had doubled in size compared to before, and at the same time, his spiritual consciousness also expanded from forty feet at the beginning to fifty feet.
Feel the breakthrough power changes in your body.
Fu Changsheng's eyes showed joy.
at the same time.
Some couldn't wait to immediately point at the Yunhuan Purple Immortal Pagoda in front of them, only to see that the little green snake that originally shed its skin in the tower was gone. On the top of the second floor, a thirty-foot-long green python was entrenched.
After the little green snake evolved into the green python, his aura suddenly broke through from the peak of the first level to the second level!
"Hiss!"
After the green python broke through.
It turns out that his cold temperament has a hint of arrogance.
but.
It is quite docile to its owner.
The snake hesitated.
He passed on his changes to Fu Changsheng.
After Fu Changsheng understood.
But his eyes lit up.
As expected, Green Python awakened another bloodline spell:
"Xiao Qing, come on, try to become proficient in this spell."
The green python couldn't describe the power of the new bloodline spell, because it hadn't finished comprehending the bloodline spell itself. After communicating with its master, the green python closed its eyes again and continued to comprehend the bloodline spell.
Fu Changsheng was a little more looking forward to it.
His eyes fell on a corner of the tower.
However, I saw that the unknown mass swallowed by the soul-devouring worm seemed to have been devoured on the outer layer, and a vigorous spiritual power was overflowing from the inside.
The Soul-Eating Insect seems to be on the verge of breaking through.
After the shell of the unknown object is completely devoured, the Soul Devouring Bug should be able to successfully break through to the second level.
Fu Changsheng's smile deepened.
If so.
Then when he goes to the fiefdom, it is equivalent to having two foundation-building fighters, which is a great joy.
He took another pill of fasting medicine.
Among the many things to deal with, Fu Changsheng's eyes fell on the Nine-Turn Magic Lamp.
For now.
The Nine-Turn Magic Lamp is the most effective way to improve his combat power.
Naturally, he must first perform a sacrifice.
After spending ten days to master the sacrifice formula, he immediately chanted the spell in his mouth, and then a spell was cast into the Nine-Turn Magic Lamp.
The magic lamp that originally looked gray.
It glowed a little bit.
So.
Another month passed.
Buzz!
But the whole magic lamp suddenly rose from the base with a mysterious rune, and the rune quickly rose from the bottom to the top. When it reached the wick, it snapped, like a lamp flower exploding.
The rune converged into the wick.
Fu Changsheng waved his right hand, and the Nine Revolutions Magic Lamp immediately landed lightly in his palm. As his true essence was activated, the magic lamp hummed and began to slowly rotate.
Looking at the Nine Revolutions Magic Lamp that he could barely control.
Fu Changsheng's eyes showed a look of relief:
"It took more than a month, and the sacrifice is finally completed."
How powerful the Nine Revolutions Magic Lamp is, it is impossible to test it now.
"Huh-"
After resting for a few days.
He continued to sacrifice the Human Emperor Banner without stopping.
