Ascension Through Generations

Three days later, Qianlong Pavilion.

Near noon, the sun shines into the Jinxiu Hall from the window, and its light warmth dissipates the slightly heavy atmosphere here.

Just now, Zhao Sheng had a dispute with Chen Dacheng and his wife, Chen Ying and others.

The two sides had huge differences over the future path of their eldest daughter Chen Mingzhi.

Chen Dacheng's intention is for Zhi'er to inherit the mantle of his father and continue to follow the path of Lei Xiu.

This suggestion was approved by everyone except Zhao Sheng

He firmly disagrees with his daughter's practice of thunder, but wants her to follow the path of fire and become an alchemy master in the future.

"Xie'er, don't be so stubborn! I'm doing this for Zhi'er's own good!" Chen Dacheng persuaded her earnestly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Ying immediately echoed: "Husband, just listen to daddy! Zhi'er has the excellent qualifications of the twin spiritual roots of thunder and fire. If she practices the fire method, wouldn't it be a waste of her great qualifications."

"Guangxi, it's not what I said to you. Now even Zhi'er has agreed, but why do you still disagree? Don't you want to look forward to your daughter?"

Faced with the "sincere words" of several people, Zhao Sheng looked calm and showed no intention of being persuaded.

After being silent for a while, he suddenly turned to look at his eldest daughter, who was nestling next to his wife.

Chen Mingzhi, who had just turned nine, looked at her father timidly with her big eyes open, as if there was some kind of expectation in her eyes.

With a doting smile on his face, Zhao Sheng suddenly asked, "Zhi'er, do you like flowers, plants and small animals?"

"I like it!" Chen Mingzhi replied in a low voice.

After Zhao Sheng got his daughter's answer, his eyes became determined and he said in a deep voice: "You don't need to persuade me, I have made up my mind. Zhi'er cannot learn the thunder method. Fighting and killing are men's business, let women go in battle. open!

As a father, I should protect my daughter throughout her life and make her live a peaceful and happy life, and everything will be successful! "

Chen Dacheng looked moved, but he said: "Guangxi, you...all the ancestors in your family are watching secretly! You are so determined to have your own way, you are simply disappointing everyone!"

Zhao Sheng ignored his father-in-law's "angry" and waved to his daughter with a smile: "Zhi'er, come. Come to daddy!"

Chen Mingzhi heard her father's call. After hesitating for a moment, she broke away from her mother's restraints and trotted into her father's broad chest.

"It's getting late! Zhi'er's matter is settled like this! If anyone disagrees in the future, let him come to me! After all, the Chen family is also a dignified high-ranking family, but now they are plotting against a little girl. , if it spreads, I won’t be afraid of making the world laugh!”

After leaving his last words, Zhao Sheng picked up his daughter and strode out of Jinxiu Hall.

Looking at the retreating figures of father and daughter, Chen Dacheng felt that they were not human beings inside and outside, but he had no choice but to slap Zhao Sheng on the table: "Confused! How could I harm my own granddaughter?"

Outside the Jinxiu Hall, Zhao Sheng heard the scolding coming from the lobby, and suddenly an inexplicable smile appeared on his face.

Thinking of the Chen family's "plan", he suddenly said to his daughter: "Zhi'er, daddy will give you a gift today."

With that said, Zhao Sheng stretched out his right hand in front of Chen Mingzhi and slowly opened his fingers.

The light flickered, and a wooden gourd that was more than an inch tall appeared out of thin air in the palm of my hand.

The gourd is lifelike, with clear skin texture and numerous talisman patterns. The whole body is green and vivid, just like an emerald jade gourd.

The main material of this gourd carving comes from the unknown gourd vine obtained half a year ago.

Half a year ago, he quickly discovered that this gourd vine would exude an unimaginable "mysterious atmosphere."

Although this "mysterious aura" overflows, it will quickly transform into a large amount of extremely pure spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

However, Zhao Sheng could still sense that the "mysterious aura" had many magical qualities. It could not only slowly improve the physical condition, but also make people mentally calm, making the heart as clear as a mirror, as if they had entered the realm of "unity between man and nature."

Three months ago, he personally removed a section of the gourd vine and then imitated the yellow-skinned gourd, carving this gourd piece by piece.

Zhao Sheng hung the exquisite gourd under his daughter's neck and told her not to take it off in the future and not to let outsiders touch it.

"I got it, Daddy."

Chen Mingzhi touched the exquisite gourd on her chest, and her face suddenly showed a very happy smile.

The nine-year-old girl quickly discovered the "strangeness" of the exquisite gourd. As a cold breath gradually poured into her body, her body immediately became warm and extremely comfortable.

"Let's go, daddy will take you to see silkworms!"

After saying this, Zhao Sheng hugged his daughter, turned west, and went straight to the silkworm room.

…

A remote courtyard to the west of Qianlong Pavilion is where the silkworm breeding room is.

Zhao Sheng walked into the courtyard, and the sound of footsteps immediately alerted Chen Shou, who was raising fairy-eating silkworms.

Chen Shou quickly ran out and bowed to Zhao Sheng and his daughter.

"Master, greetings! Hello, eldest lady!"

Zhao Sheng nodded and continued walking inside, asking about the status of the Immortal-Eating Silkworms.

Chen Shou didn't dare to hide anything and told the whole story about the recent breeding process.

Overall, the situation is very optimistic, except for the fact that the fairy-eating silkworms are very edible.

"Master, you don't know! In the past half month alone, these seven silkworm treasures have devoured more than two thousand kilograms of first-grade top-grade monster meat. Fortunately, the quantity is not large, otherwise no matter how big the family property is, they will be eaten. empty!"

Amid Chen Shou's constant "complaining", Zhao Sheng walked into the jam room.

The silkworm room is not large in area. The roof, floor and surrounding walls are all made of Qinggang Rock. Multiple sealing formations are arranged throughout the room to prevent the fairy-eating silkworms from escaping.

In the center of the silkworm room, there was a waist-high iron-green vat, and there was a rustling sound in the vat.

Zhao Sheng walked in and saw seven round black silkworms as long as index fingers lying on the body of a moon rabbit, munching crazily.

Visible to the naked eye, the pink bones of Moon Rabbit's body were exposed, and the flesh and blood on the body were quickly eaten away.

Zhao Sheng nodded with satisfaction when he saw this, but his daughter screamed in fright and quickly buried her head into her father's arms, not daring to take another look.

Zhao Sheng patted his daughter on the back and smiled helplessly. But I didn't expect my daughter to be so timid.

He originally planned to separate a fairy-devouring silkworm and hand it over to his daughter to raise, but now it seems that this intention has completely failed.

Seeing this situation, Zhao Sheng had no choice but to take away a young silkworm, and then took his daughter out of the silkworm room.

After a stick of incense, in a training room in Qianlong Pavilion.

Zhao Sheng sat cross-legged on a jade futon, casually placed a golden bowl on the ground in front of him, and then waved his right hand slightly.

With a ding-dong sound, a piece of dark golden meat fell into the golden bowl.

The minced meat is only the size of a grain of rice. Even though the previous owner has been dead for many years, it is still as fresh as ever and exudes a light fragrance.

Zhao Sheng took off the silkworm bag, opened the mouth of the bag, and released the fairy-eating silkworm.

As soon as this round, fat black silkworm was born, it seemed to smell the unparalleled delicious food. The body of the silkworm instantly arched high, and then ejected out, as fast as a black lightning.

With Zhao Sheng's extraordinary eyesight, he could only vaguely see a fleeting trace of black light.

After the Immortal Devouring Silkworm swallowed the piece of golden flesh in one gulp, the silkworm's body suddenly twisted violently and began to swim wildly inside the golden bowl, hitting it crazily.

At a glance, it looks like there are black electric lights flashing vaguely inside the bowl, and at the same time there are waves of humming.

Zhao Sheng's eyes were solemn and he observed the movement in the golden bowl without moving.

After about half an hour, the speed of the Immortal Devouring Silkworm was greatly reduced, and it became listless, as if the excitement period had passed.

But at this time, its size has nearly doubled, reaching the length of a palm, and its waist diameter has reached the width of two fingers.

Hiss!

Just when Zhao Sheng was about to take back the big silkworm, the silkworm suddenly began to spin silk. After a large amount of black and white silk was spit out quickly, the fairy-eating silkworm quickly began to spin a cocoon.

In just a moment, a fist-sized black and white silkworm cocoon appeared in front of him.

Zhao Sheng looked thoughtful, stretched out his hand to pick up the silkworm cocoon, and carefully put it into the silkworm bag.

To be cautious, he also deliberately placed seven or eight moon rabbit corpses, one of which was the second-level Moon Rabbit King.

Before this, Zhao Sheng had not expected that the flesh and blood of a half-immortal in the Return to Void Realm would have such a powerful effect.

The fairy-eating silkworm actually formed a cocoon!

Is it possible to "turn a cocoon into a butterfly" in the future?

But he looked through the ancient records of the clan and all the news he found in the Return City, but there was no legend about the fairy-eating silkworms that would transform into butterflies.

On the contrary, the theory of cocoon formation is quite believable!

Yes, fairy-eating silkworms do spin cocoons, and they do so many times throughout their lives.

Every time it breaks out of the cocoon, it means a successful evolution.

Zhao Sheng walked out of the training room thoughtfully while recalling some rumors and records about the Immortal-Eating Silkworm.

A few days later, the leaders of the Chen family finally couldn't defeat Zhao Sheng, so they had to endure their dissatisfaction and acquiesced to Chen Mingzhi's "choice".

As an old father, Zhao Sheng was very worried about his daughter.

For the sake of his daughter's career, he personally prepared a "rich gift" and asked Chen Dali, the family's alchemy master, to accept his daughter as his disciple.

Chen Dali readily agreed, after all, he gave too much.

Just one of the books, "A Brief Talk on the Way of Alchemy," is enough to make this alchemy master salivate and get extremely excited!

Zhao Sheng was a great alchemist in his previous life, and he wrote "A Brief Talk on Alchemy". You can imagine how precious this is to alchemists.

If it weren't for his inconvenience to "expose" his own strength, how could it be his precious daughter's turn to be taught by a mere alchemy master.

Even so, Zhao Sheng has already planned to give his daughter a "big opportunity"

Presumably, a palace left by an alchemy master should be considered a rare opportunity.

As for the "Great Sun Burning Heaven Jue", the Golden Crow True Fire, the Magical Pill Furnace, and various opportunities passed down by the Grandmaster, they are all naturally available.

Of course, it is too early to mention this matter now!

When his daughter turns eighteen, Zhao Sheng will secretly arrange for her to receive this "gift from the old father."

…

Autumn passes and winter comes, and it’s the end of the year again.

Late that night, Zhao Sheng woke up from his bed, next to him was an enchanting body like mutton-fat white jade.

He did not disturb Chen Qi'er, quietly flew up, put on his clothes, and left quietly.

Later, he appeared in the training room, and then opened the surrounding enchantment restrictions.

After making preparations, Zhao Sheng sat on the ground and penetrated the Sumeru space with his spiritual consciousness.

Suddenly, a bit of shock appeared on his face, and he discovered that the Sumeru space had become larger, at least "a circle" larger than the original one.

"The length of the space has increased by at least one foot, and the volume of the space is about as big as a room. The previous guess was indeed correct!" Zhao Sheng's eyes flashed strangely, and he thought to himself.

At the beginning, he had guessed that everything in Yukong Immortal Sky seemed to contain more or less the power of time and space.

Last time, he dug up piles of rocks and debris. It may be that a large amount of space-time power overflowed and then gradually merged into the Sumeru space, which made it "bigger".

What he saw today really verified his guess.

Zhao Sheng calmed down quickly, and the index finger of his right hand shimmered.

The next moment, a gourd vine that was more than ten feet long appeared out of thin air and fell to the ground in front of him. .

Looking at the two yellow gourds hanging under the vine, Zhao Sheng turned over with one hand, and a small golden sword with cold light suddenly fell into his hand.

He held the dragon-headed sword in his hand, slowly reached the top of the gourd, and began to cut slowly along the place where the vines were connected.

Zizzi!

Zhao Sheng cut very slowly, and the resistance from his hands was great.

But after spending a cup of tea, I finally separated the yellow-skinned gourd from the withered vine.

Zhao Sheng waved his hand and put away the gourd vine. Then he reached out and picked up the yellow-skinned gourd, put it in front of his eyes and observed it carefully.

This gourd is about a foot tall, with a large bottom and a large top. Its outer skin is as smooth and creamy as topaz.

But apart from that, there is nothing else magical about it, just like an ordinary yellow-skinned gourd.

However, Zhao Sheng knew that this gourd, heel and foot were extraordinary and should be a spiritual root that was rare in the world.

Just because the yellow-skinned gourd always "doesn't contain oil or salt", it seems to be a whole of its own.

Zhao Sheng had tried every means, but none of his spiritual consciousness, spiritual power, sacrificial refining techniques, treasure refining spells, etc. could invade this gourd. Even the best spiritual weapon, the Dragon Head Sword, could not damage it in the slightest.

In his opinion, this gourd probably only corresponds to those four words: "the divine thing hides itself"

In recent days, he suddenly thought of a way, which is why he took the gourd today.

Zhao Sheng played with the yellow gourd carefully for a while and then placed it in front of his knees.

Then, he took out the Dragon Head Sword and slashed his left wrist. In an instant, blood spurted out and then poured onto the gourd.

At this moment, the yellow-skinned gourd suddenly bloomed with a faint yellow light, absorbing all the blood in an instant.

Seeing this astonishing sight, Zhao Sheng's eyes widened. He immediately grasped the Dragon Head Sword and swung the sword again to cut his newly healed wrist.

Wow!

A large amount of blood splashed onto the gourd and was then absorbed by it.

Zhao Sheng felt even more excited when he saw this. He was only afraid of not reacting, but he was not afraid of bloodletting or flesh cutting.

Next, he repeatedly cut his wrists and bled them.

There seems to be a bottomless pit inside the yellow-skinned gourd, and it doesn't reject anyone who comes.

No matter how many times Zhao Sheng drains blood, it can easily absorb it.

Two hours later, Zhao Sheng's face turned slightly pale.

During this period, the blood he released was enough to burst the entire training room.

However, he still couldn't detect the slightest response from Huang-skin Gourd, nor did he see anything strange about it.

"Is the method of bleeding gourds wrong?"

At this moment, Zhao Sheng began to have doubts, but he did not stop moving his hands and still cut his wrists to bleed again and again.

Another half hour passed.

Just when he thought of giving up for the third time, the yellow-skinned gourd finally took a new turn.

I saw a faint red light suddenly appear on the surface of this gourd. The red light quickly traveled upstream and converged on the mouth of the gourd.

The next second, a wisp of blood-colored flame suddenly spurted out from the gourd's mouth.

After the bloody flame flew into the air, it stood still in the air for an instant, looking like a large blood bead. It looked as bright red as amber, and a brilliance that seemed both real and illusory overflowed from the surface.

"Hey, what is this? It seems"

Zhao Sheng looked at the strange blood beads in the air in amazement, murmuring to himself, and his thoughts moved accordingly.

As soon as the thought came to his mind, he saw this strange blood bead suddenly turned into a wisp of blood and disappeared into his left chest. It did not calm down until it penetrated deep into his heart.

I kept everyone waiting for a long time. Baimei just finished coding! The reason is Cavan.
