The Longevity Family: Starting From The Branches And Leaves

Chapter 70: Preparations from All Sides (Seeking to Continue Reading)

"Phew!"

"I finally finished modifying the Golden Ink Armor Sword Spider!"

Chen Ling jumped down from the back of the Golden Ink Armor Sword Spider, his eyes filled with joy.

After nearly half a month of modifications, the power of this Golden Ink Armor Sword Spider was even more astonishing.

Its entire body was shining brightly with golden ink armor.

Four sharp swords were sewn together on its four front legs, two top-grade magic swords and two low-grade spirit swords.

Just the power of these four sharp swords alone would be enough to overwhelm an early Foundation Building cultivator.

Not to mention the improved fire thunder beads in its poison sac.

Of course, if it were to face a mid-stage Foundation Building cultivator, the real killer move would be the silent needle hidden in the poison sac.

With a flick of his divine sense, the giant mouth of the Golden Ink Armor Sword Spider moved slightly, and a silent beam of light shot out like lightning.

With a "pu" sound, it deeply pierced into the wall.

This attack was quite effective.

If it weren't for Chen Ling's exceptionally powerful divine sense, even if he knew in advance about the activation of the silent needle, he wouldn't be able to capture its trajectory.

Chen Ling walked over and pulled the silent needle out of the wall.

Looking at the almost transparent silent needle in his hand, Chen Ling infused it with spiritual energy, and a purple light immediately appeared in his hand.

This cluster of purple light seemed to be full of spirituality, constantly changing and shining, making it impossible to see its shape clearly.

Chen Ling increased the infusion of spiritual energy, and the purple light gradually dimmed, finally revealing the true form of the silent needle.

It was a purple iron needle about three or four inches long.

The silent needle was invisible to the naked eye, and its existence could only be felt when held in the hand and infused with spiritual energy.

Chen Ling jumped back onto the puppet and reinserted the silent needle into the poison sac.

"The effect is not bad!"

Chen Ling clapped his hands, a satisfied expression on his face.

Originally, the four sharp swords, combined with the fire thunder beads, were already enough to shock people. But who would have thought that the true killer move of this puppet was the silent needle!

An unexpected attack would surely be difficult for even a late-stage Foundation Building cultivator to detect.

Moreover, the silent needle could be reused and consumed very little, making it a masterpiece of ingenuity.

The sense of security in his heart also skyrocketed.

"Husband, Uncle Shen is here!"

At this moment, a hurried knocking sound came from outside, followed by He Yunxiu's voice.

Chen Ling immediately put away the puppet and walked out of the cultivation room.

In the hall.

"Cough! Master Chen, the Luo family has made a deadly move against us! Cough!"

Qin Tong's face was pale, as if he had used all his strength to say those words.

Before he could catch his breath, he was engulfed in a violent coughing fit.

Chen Ling's gaze sharpened, and he said in a deep voice, "Qin Tong, don't say anymore. Take good care of your injuries. You don't need to worry about other things."

Then he turned to Shen Zhen, who had a grim expression, and asked, "Uncle Shen, what's the situation?"

Shen Zhen sighed helplessly, his brows furrowed. "It's still the same matter. The Luo family is becoming more and more unruly. Not only did they divert the earth fire towards their direction, but they also completely blocked our fire channel."

"Qin Tong and his men went to reason with them, but they didn't even bother to talk and directly attacked, injuring Qin Tong and the others like this!"

"This is the fourth time this month!"

Shen Zhen's tone was filled with helplessness. Their strength was now inferior to others, and they had no other external support. They could only watch as the spiritual land and earth fire were gradually occupied by the Luo family.

And the most crucial thing was that Chen Ling seemed to not be very concerned about this matter from beginning to end.

He had been staying at home all this time.

And he hadn't come up with a solution to the problem.

The remaining clan members were also disheartened.

Some left, and those who stayed were now less than a hundred!

Originally, I thought that with Chen Ling's status as a guest of the Wanbao Tower and the Xingjian Sect, the Luo family would still have some concerns. But now it seems that the Luo family is completely unscrupulous in order to quickly occupy this place.

It can be said that they have completely disregarded everything!

Chen Ling thought for a moment and said in a deep voice, "Uncle Shen, please accompany me to the market and inform Senior Wang about this situation. Let's see what he thinks."

He knew very well that Senior Wang had made his intentions clear last time.

He had to solve this situation on his own.

The Wang family would not cut off the path for other families to join them over a small dispute like this!

However, Chen Ling's goal was not in this.

He had long been prepared to kill the head of the Luo family, and now he was almost ready, and he would not back down.

But he had his wife, concubines, and children behind him.

If anything unexpected happened, he would inform Senior Wang.

With Senior Wang's reputation, he would definitely not let the Luo family harm his loved ones.

Shen Zhen furrowed his brows even tighter and shook his head, saying, "Will this be useful?"

Chen Ling sighed, "We can only try our best! If it doesn't work, we'll think of another way!"

Dealing with the head of the Luo family now, he didn't have much confidence, so naturally he didn't want others to know.

Then he took out a newly refined mountain giant ruler from his storage bag and handed it to Shen Zhen, saying, "Give this mountain giant ruler to Senior Wang as a thank you for his help last time."

Shen Zhen had dealt with Senior Wang for many years and naturally knew his preferences.

A spiritual weapon was also a rare treasure for a Foundation Building cultivator.

Shen Zhen reluctantly accepted the spiritual weapon.

At this moment, he seemed to realize that Chen Ling was already able to refine spiritual weapons, and couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Chen Ling, you can refine spiritual weapons now?"

Chen Ling nodded and waved his hand, saying, "Uncle Shen, let's go quickly and come back quickly!"

"Okay! Okay!" Shen Zhen couldn't help but show a happy expression when he heard this. Chen Ling's excellent talent in refining weapons made him, who had almost lost hope, feel a glimmer of hope again!

Then Chen Ling asked the other disciples to take Qin Tong back to rest.

He and Shen Zhen left the courtyard and quickly headed towards the market.

...

The cold winter continued.

The road was covered in white snow, and there were few pedestrians.

"Uncle Shen, nothing else is going to happen, right?" Chen Ling couldn't help but ask.

Although the weather was cold, cultivators would not fear this kind of cold air.

Shen Zhen pointed in the direction of the northwest where the Lijin Vein was located and said helplessly, "Recently, several groups of bandits have appeared in the direction leading to the mine. They are powerful, and ordinary people dare not easily go there."

"The Xingjian Sect can't spare manpower to eliminate them."

"In the future, the supply of ore will probably be a big problem!"

"Troublesome times!"

Chen Ling furrowed his brows when he heard this and said, "Bandits?"

"It's not easy being the head of a family!"

"But I can't be sure if it's just too many things happening!"

Chen Ling thought to himself.

Although he had obtained this spiritual land for almost a month, he was just a figurehead.

All matters were managed by Shen Zhen and Qin Yelian.

This had a lot to do with his personality. He acted low-key, tolerated when he could, and endured when he had to.

He didn't have the ambition to establish a thousand-year-old family. He just wanted to have a place to settle down in this chaotic world.

He was aware of his own abilities.

The personal charm and prestige that a family head possessed seemed to have nothing to do with his kind-hearted temperament.

"Dealing with these things is too mentally exhausting. It's easier to marry and have children to gain incense value!"

Chen Ling quickly decided to stick to the original plan and not waver for a hundred years!

Brothers, please remember to continue reading on Tuesday! I beg you!
