Best Ascension

Chapter 465
Zhou Li cupped his hands in return, and said with a warm and elegant smile: "It's good to be back! The third ancestor, Jing Heng and I have prepared delicious wine in advance in the mountain city, specially for you to cleanse the dust. We will get drunk later. !"

"Brother Zhou, it's not easy to get me drunk! Unless the fine wine is a drunken fairy drink that has been hidden for thousands of years." Zhao Sheng joked after hearing this.

"Haha, that's right in one sentence! It's the drunken fairy drink. You and I each have an altar, which is enough to have fun. You need to know that the sages and sages in ancient times are lonely, but the drinkers keep their names!"

After Zhou Li listened, he suddenly clasped his hands together and smiled, showing his wild and unruly side in front of people.

At this moment, Zhao Jingheng, who was left out in the cold, suddenly took a step forward, slightly cupped his hands at Zhao Sheng, and said seriously, "Jing Heng, I have seen the second master."

"Well, not bad, the old man is very pleased. With Jing Heng here, I, Shen Zimai, can be regarded as a successor." Zhao Sheng nodded and said with a gratified smile.

At that time, after Zhao Sheng recognized his ancestor and returned to the clan, Zhao Xuanjing was included in the Shenzi lineage, and Zhao Jingheng, as a generation of holy emperor, was naturally the core direct line of the Shenzi lineage.

This is where the title of Second Master comes from.

As for the master of this vein, it is Zhao Changsheng, the fourth patriarch who has explored the void and has not returned.

Hearing the praise, Zhao Jingheng's expression did not change at all, he just cupped his hands again to signal, and then quietly retreated behind Zhao Changdu, standing solemnly and quietly.

Zhao Sheng was smiling, as if he didn't feel the other party's alienation at all.

Zhao Changdu's eyes flashed, and suddenly he said with a hearty smile: "Let's go! Don't delay in the secret mansion. Let's go to the mountain city first, and the banquet has already been set up there. Today I will not return until I am drunk!"

Hearing this, Zhao Sheng showed a look of gluttony on purpose, and immediately urged: "Then what are you waiting for? Third Patriarch, Brother Zhou, hurry up! My gluttonous insects have been hooked."

"Ha ha!"

While laughing, the four of Zhao Sheng turned into streamers one after another, flew into the stone gate on the cliff face, and disappeared in an instant.

Following Zhao Changdu, Zhao Sheng flew down the wide underground passage.

Compared with a hundred years ago, this originally opened passage has been widened by several rounds, and it is already nearly [-] feet wide. Palaces and stone buildings are lined up on both sides of the passage, all shrouded in a faint enchantment of spiritual light.

Zhao Shengyou noticed that there were many members of the Zhao clan coming in and out in the palace buildings passing by along the way, and they looked extremely busy.

However, a hundred years ago, there were not so many clansmen living in the complex of buildings underground in the secret mansion.

As the passage continued to the interior of the mountain, Zhao Sheng saw a larger-scale building complex, and also saw tens of thousands of Zhao clan members.

Zhao Sheng held back his curiosity and silently followed Zhao Changdu all the way.

In a few breaths of time, the four of them flew through the underground passage that was more than [-] miles long, and the end was in front of them.

The front is bright and bright, just passing through the barrier light curtain at the entrance of the passage, Zhao Sheng's vision suddenly becomes clear!
An incomparably huge cave in the mountain was directly exposed in front of his eyes.

At this moment, it was difficult for Zhao Sheng to describe in words the shock in his heart.I don't know how to describe this magnificent cave in the mountains.

Cave spirit realm?Or a foreign fairy city?
Every building in the city is so unique and pleasing to the eye.

There are huge pillars connecting the sky and the ground one by one, among the cities, the most conspicuous and occupying the core position.

The huge pillars were also carved into palaces, and the whole body emitted a soft and clear light, providing light for the city.

The style of these pillar buildings is somewhat similar to that of the Eight Diagrams Guangming Building, but each pillar building is unique in its details.

Surrounding the pillar building, every street in Fangshi below has also been carefully designed. The corridors and waists complement each other with green trees and fragrant grasses, which are more vulgar and less indecent.

At this moment, humanity and nature have reached an astonishing harmony.

At a glance, this giant city in the mountains seems to condense all the customs, humanities and architectural styles of the continents and continents in one square and one street, as if it is nakedly showing off the uncanny craftsmanship of the people who opened up the city!

If it was only these, Zhao Sheng would only admire Zhao Xuanjing's superb skills, but would not be shocked from the bottom of his heart.

What shocked him the most was what kind of means Zhao Xuanjing used to make the city beautiful while at the same time perfectly constructing a large formation that had never been seen before.

That's right!The whole city is like a big formation.Under Zhao Xuanjing's ingenious design, every building, every street and even those flowers and trees in the city have become the necessary elements to build this grand formation.

Zhao Sheng, who was close to the Grand Master of Formation Dao, had amazing eyesight, and quickly saw through this high-level complex formation hidden behind countless beautiful scenery.

This formation not only has both offensive and defensive elements of the five elements, but also has the attributes of life, death, illusion, and sleepiness. under.

In addition, Zhao Sheng also saw the styles of the three major formation schools.

He even boldly guessed that in the process of building this city, the great help of Li Ziran, Liu Yishou, and Huang Yu was absolutely inseparable.

Perhaps, this unknown formation was formed by the joint efforts of the three great masters and Zhao Xuanjing.

When the four of them flew into the city, Chief Zhao noticed Zhao Sheng's shocking expression, and he immediately looked very proud. With a somewhat ostentatious tone, he smiled and said, "How is this city? I must have been shocked too!"

Zhao Sheng admired it sincerely: "Uncanny workmanship, unique in the world!"

"Haha, to tell you the truth, when I saw it for the first time when it was built, I was shocked. The skill of our ancestors has really reached an unprecedented level. I wait for the younger generations to be amazed, far inferior to also!"

When talking about the ancestors, not only Zhao Changdu, but also Zhou Li and Zhao Jingheng showed respectful expressions of looking up at the mountains and walking.

But the difference is that Zhao Sheng noticed that in addition to reverence, Zhao Jingheng's eyes showed unstoppable ambition.

"This person is ambitious, and his heart and wrist are all the best choices, but unfortunately his qualifications are not good. Jing Heng's heart is higher than the sky, and his ambition is too high. This is not a good thing for the Zhao family!" Zhao Sheng thought to himself, and there was a faint feeling in his heart. Kind of worried.

Just when he was worried that Zhao Jingheng might make a big mess in the future, the four of them had already flown to the pillar building in the center of the city, and at this moment there were bursts of fairy music from the building.

At this moment, many well-dressed people flew out of the building one after another, shouting to welcome the ancestor Yunyun.

Zhao Changdu nodded slightly, then motioned for everyone to disperse, and then took Zhao Sheng and the three of them to fly into the Wuyou Pavilion on the top floor.

On that day, the wine was fragrant and the people were harmonious, and they were happy and happy, and they returned home after being exhausted!

Zhao Sheng also passed out in the Wuyou Pavilion drunk and had to rest on the spot for a day.

After waking up the next day, Zhao Jingheng took the initiative to look for it, and personally accompanied the second master of this vein to tour this fairy city in the mountains.

Zhao Sheng didn't realize that Zhao Jingheng was actually the lord of the mountain city until he saw the awe of the people in the city towards Zhao Jingheng. No wonder he was the one to accompany him.

However, whether Zhao Jingheng's move hides other intentions.

Although Zhao Sheng couldn't be sure, he probably guessed some of his thoughts.

No matter how powerful the Nantian Zhao Clan is, no matter how harmonious and united the clan is, there are still conflicts of interests that should exist.

Although it hasn't been long since he came back, just by seeing the scale of the mountain city and the richness of the aura in the cave, one can be sure how important the mountain city is to the family!
You must know that this city is clearly built on the core spiritual aperture of the only fifth-order spiritual vein in the Tianzhu world.

From this, it can be seen how superior the aura environment of the mountain city is!

Zhao Jingheng was the lowest in seniority among the Yuanying ancestors of the family, but he assumed the position of the city lord.

It not only shows the ingenuity of his tactics, but also shows how much Zhao Xuanjing attaches importance to him.

However, as soon as Zhao Sheng came back, the situation changed completely.

He is not only of high seniority and strength, but also sacrificed his life for the family's great cause and made great contributions.

Just for reward, as long as he thinks or speaks, Zhao Jingheng will have to give up his position as the city lord!

Zhao Jingheng absolutely does not want to give up the position of city lord, because this position involves great interests.

Since ancient times, Li Yi has no parents in front of him, let alone a second master with an unclear background!

After all, the benefits here are terrifying, and to a certain extent, it even determines whether he can cultivate to the state of transforming gods in the future.

Little did he know that Zhao Jingheng was clearly thinking too much.

The role of the city lord is heavy and heavy, although the oil and water are very rich, but how can Zhao Sheng take it seriously.

If he revealed his real net worth, he might be shocked by everyone in the family, even Zhao Xuanjing was no exception.

For example, Yuanshen Fruit, Sumeru Precepts, Sanyang Liehuo Banner, Jiuming Pagoda, Sky-taking basket and so on.

These are priceless treasures taken out casually, how can they be measured by spirit stones.

Zhao Sheng could see the dark thoughts of the other party, but he didn't point it out, he just pretended not to know.

Seven or eight days later, Zhao Changdu and Zhou Li left one after another.

Seeing this situation, Zhao Sheng made a request for retreat and practice, and at the same time declined Zhao Jingheng's kind suggestion to stay in the city for retreat, saying that Diyan Island is the most suitable place for practice.

Zhao Jingheng didn't do much to persuade him to stay, but he personally accompanied Zhao Sheng to Diyan Island, and saw the second master entering Wudingxing Cave for retreat before returning to the mountain city with a blank expression.

……

It hasn't been back for a hundred years, and the star cave has roughly returned to its original appearance.

The indeterminate star core is shrouded in the red light and fire pillar, like a star, slowly rotating in the void.

However, at this time, seven or eight jade pagodas stood impressively on the surface of the magma lake below.
Each jade pagoda is covered with a scarlet enchantment, and it seems that someone is practicing in seclusion in the pagoda.

Zhao Sheng glanced over the Jade Pagoda below, and then his figure flashed and landed on the Unfixed Star Core.

He sat down cross-legged, holding a top-grade spirit stone in each hand, closed his eyes, sensed the invisible rhythm emanating from the star core, and his mind quickly entered a state of emptiness and immobility.

Boom!

Waves of spiritual energy surged from all directions, frantically converging toward the amorphous core.

The incomparably rich aura of heaven and earth accumulated more and more, and gradually condensed into a layer of spiritual cloud and thick fog, and under the cover of the divine light of Mie Shen Erosion Soul, it showed a faint fiery red light, like a cloud of burning clouds.

Zhao Sheng's training made a great momentum, and soon alarmed all the Jindan real people who were retreating in the pagoda.

Everyone stopped practicing one after another, and hurriedly flew out of the tower, looking at the fire cloud above the star core, all of them were terrified and inexplicable.

Just when everyone was stunned, a huge storm of spiritual thoughts suddenly swept over everyone, and a voice that seemed familiar and unfamiliar sounded in everyone's ears at the same time.

Someone quickly recognized Zhao Sheng's identity from his voice.

So in the blink of an eye, everyone knew the news that the Sixteenth Patriarch had returned.

Seeing that the Sixteenth Patriarch was cultivating in the Star Cave, these Zhao Clan Golden Elixirs were very discerning, and they all withdrew from the Star Cave without hesitation, and automatically gave up this treasured place for cultivation.

Zhao Sheng didn't mean that, but he didn't want the juniors of his clan to be so sensible.

For the kindness of the juniors, he naturally appreciates it, and secretly remembers that there will be rewards in the future.

Ten days later,
A faint divine light bloomed between Zhao Sheng's brows, and the Nascent Soul's dharma body in the depths of the soul was solemn, and his body was surrounded by a strong and dazzling light like water.

At this moment, many identical "Yuanying" phantoms appeared behind the dharma body, all surrounded by the radiance of spiritual thoughts, but the brightness was slightly weaker than that of the main body.

These baby elephants are all transformed by the projection of distracted consciousness, and there are hundreds of them at a glance.

A ray of divine light descends from the sea of ​​soul, along the meridians of the chest, abdomen, limbs, and bones, and penetrates deep into the sea of ​​qi in the dantian. Countless torrents of mana circulate endlessly in the meridians with the traction of the divine light, forming extremely complex but complex meridians. And an incomparably precise exercise cycle.

At every moment, a huge amount of heaven and earth spiritual energy roared into Zhao Sheng's body, and with the torrent of mana, it fell into the sea of ​​​​qi in the dantian, forming a pattering spiritual rain.

The mana in the dantian surged like a vast ocean, drank countless drops of spiritual rain, and automatically transformed them into more pure mana.

Time passed slowly, and Zhao Sheng's cultivation had slightly improved.

Half a day later, Zhao Sheng felt the torrent of spiritual energy pouring from his hands suddenly cut off.

So, he slowly stopped the operation of the exercises, opened his eyes and looked at his hands, and sure enough, he saw two empty shells of spirit stones with the vortex dissipated and the spiritual energy absorbed.

Zhao Sheng sighed slightly, put the two blank spirit stones into the storage bag casually, then flipped over with one hand, and there was an apricot yellow ring in the palm of his hand.

After settling his mind, Zhao Sheng suddenly shot out a divine light from the center of his eyebrows, and landed on the Sumeru Ring.

In an instant, the endless time-space faults were reflected in the depths of his mind, and his spiritual thoughts split into nearly a hundred invisible tentacles, which penetrated into the time-space faults one by one.

This search has been repeated countless times over the decades, so it has almost become a kind of instinct.

While Zhao Sheng persisted in searching for the whereabouts of the Sumeru Dimension, he also regarded it as a way to exercise his spiritual power.

After decades of tempering, the strength of his divine sense has increased significantly again, and his tenacity is far beyond the imagination of the world.

After persisting for nearly half an hour, nearly [-]% of the divine sense has been consumed by this time.

At this time, Zhao Sheng stopped habitually, and put Xu Mijie into his arms with his backhand.

Then, he poured out another three-return pill and swallowed it with his head raised, then began to meditate quietly with his eyes closed.

Two hours later, Zhao Sheng opened his eyes suddenly, the light in his eyes pierced the void like lightning, at this time his spiritual sense had fully recovered.

After thinking about it, he waved his hand, and a dazzling fire cover suddenly rose around him, blocking outside sight.

Then, Zhao Sheng took out a jade box from the storage bag, and the surface of the jade box was covered with seal symbols.

Carefully peel off the seal, open the box cover, only to see a crystal red fruit inside, only the size of an egg, but with traces of Dao Yun flowing on the surface, it seems that there is an unimaginable vast spiritual power inside.

Zhao Sheng looked at the Yuanshen fruit in the box with deep eyes, he couldn't make up his mind for a moment.

eat?
or not to eat?
