The Longevity Family: Starting from the Branches and Leaves

Chapter 257
The warship flew fast all the way, and when it arrived at Yudie City, it was already midnight.

In the hall, soft crystal lights shine.

He Yunxiu was absent-mindedly preparing the children's winter clothes.

From time to time, he looked towards the door with a worried look on his face.

"Sister Yun, don't worry!"

"My husband will definitely come back safely."

On the side, Fang Ying yawned and said in relief.

At dusk, Yingweitang received the news that the pioneer cultivators fled back to Pohu City!

It is said that this battle suffered heavy casualties, and even a Nascent Soul cultivator fell.

Even Zhao Charmaine was hunted down by Platinum Ape.

This made He Yunxiu and the others worried about Chen Ling's situation.

"Go to sleep if you are sleepy! I will arrange the children's clothes and go to sleep!"

He Yunxiu forced a smile and said.

Although Chen Ling was already a Jindan cultivator now, every time Chen Ling went out, she felt more or less uneasy.

Especially this time is going to a dangerous wasteland.

Moreover, news of the disastrous defeat came from Pohu City today, with heavy casualties.

In such a situation, how could they not be worried?
"I am not sleepy!"

Fang Ying laughed.

At this time, footsteps came from the door.

"Yes, my husband is back!" Fang Ying said happily.

He Yunxiu also heard it, and excitedly put down the clothes in her hands.

He hurriedly got up and walked out of the hall.

As soon as Chen Ling entered the gate, He Yunxiu rushed over, looked at Chen Ling, and said excitedly, "I'm back!"

Fang Ying didn't speak, but her bright eyes were also looking at Chen Ling, full of concern.

Chen Ling nodded, and said softly, "It's so late, why are you still up?"

"Zhen'er is here too, get me something to eat first!"

After being away for more than a month, Chen Ling also missed the taste of home a little bit!
"Really!"

He Yunxiu and Fang Ying then turned their gazes to Zhao Zhaozhen behind Chen Ling. Feeling the ups and downs of Zhao Charity's aura, they couldn't help being startled. They hurriedly bowed their hands and saluted, "I've seen Senior Zhao."

However, there was doubt about the real son Chen Ling was talking about.

Zhao Chanzhen nodded to them, then said to Chen Ling, "I'm not hungry, arrange a place for me to live first!"

"Senior Zhao, follow me!"

Fang Ying said.

There is an independent small courtyard at home, which is just for entertaining guests.

Zhao Chanzhen nodded, and followed Fang Ying along the corridor to the inner courtyard.

He Yunxiu went to the kitchen to cook for Chen Ling.

After a while, a table of steaming meals was ready.

Chen Ling started to eat hungrily.

. . .

After winter, the weather gets colder day by day.

A blizzard also followed, which lasted for a full ten days.

Heavy snow fell, and the earth was covered with silver.

For children, this is the thing they look forward to most in winter.

The heavy snow outside has already reached knees, but the snow is still falling, so they can't wait to build snowmen and have snowball fights in the square!

Very busy!

Joyful laughter, this is the scene that childhood should have.

In the training room, Chen Ling exhaled slowly. After ten days of cultivation, the aura in his body had fully recovered.

The reason why he recovered so quickly was mainly due to the double break effect with his wife and concubine.

The other is Wang Paozu's Spirit Gathering House.

This house of gathering spirits looks less than ten square meters, but inside it is full of caves, and it is extremely spacious.

Practicing inside, the effect is more than [-]% higher than outside.

With this spirit-gathering house, the concentration of spiritual energy in the entire Chen family compound is no less than that of the fourth-order top-quality spiritual veins.

In addition, a fourth-order spirit-gathering array is arranged inside, and the array can continuously absorb spiritual energy and condense spirit stones.

Just to condense the top-quality spirit stones, this time may take a little longer.

In addition, during this period of time, the Wujue Leiyan was constantly weakened by the cold spirit crystal flame and the virtual fire cauldron.

In the end, Chen Ling was stamped into the soul mark and completely subdued.

"Now that the cultivation base has been restored, the next step is to prepare puppets!"

While drinking spirit tea, Chen Ling looked out of the window. The joyful children in the square had expressions of relief on their faces and murmured to themselves.

This time, he not only got the corpse of the platinum ape, but also three other third-tier monsters.

It may take a month to refine these four monsters alone.

Coupled with alchemy and warship formation, he will not be busy this winter at all.

There is also the matter of dealing with Danmeng and Haoguangzong mentioned by Zhao Chanzhen.

After discussing with Xie Maner, Wang Yun and others, Chen Ling bargained with Zhao Charm.

In the end, it was just an agreement that when the Zhao family was about to deal with the fifth-order monsters, if Hao Guangzong and Danmeng dared to make a move, the Chen family would deal with them.

Of course, with the current strength of the Chen family, it would not be a problem to deal with Danmeng or Haoguangzong alone.

After all, both sects now have only two Nascent Soul monks.

As long as Chen Ling successfully refined the Platinum Ape, he would have four puppets of fourth-order monsters and one puppet of Nascent Soul Sword Cultivator in his hands alone.

Just these five puppets, as long as there are enough top-grade spirit stones, coupled with the consciousness of his current Nascent Soul, he alone is enough to destroy Danmeng.

However, dealing rashly with Danmeng and Haoguangzong now is not conducive to the current situation of the Chen family. The Chen family has a lot of resources in their hands and needs to develop steadily.

rather than wanton expansion.

Besides, these two sects are all vassal sects of Lanyue Sect.

Even with the help of the Zhao family, if the Cao family wanted to attack the Chen family, it would be justifiable.

What's more, Chen Ling's main pressure now is Du Qingyun.

So it is still necessary to concentrate on dealing with Du Qingyun.

After all, there are only eight or nine months left.

Fortunately, collecting Wujue Lei Yan Huo Ling and Platinum Ape this time has improved his overall strength a lot.

As for Zhao Charmaine, after a few days of recuperation in the Chen family, she recovered a bit and went to Pohu City.

It seemed that he was a little dissatisfied with Chen Ling's reluctance to send troops to Danmeng and Haoguangzong, and the other two things were not mentioned again.

Regarding this situation, Chen Ling did not persuade him to stay. Even in order to marry Zhao Chanzhen, he could not make the Chen family a subsidiary family of the Zhao family.

This puts the cart before the horse!
"You still have to improve your own strength!"

Chen Ling murmured.

With a serious expression on his face, he picked up the teacup and drank a few sips of spiritual tea.

Calm down, and then click on the panel.

Incense value: 3100
Spiritual root: Four series of top-quality spiritual roots (gold, wood, fire, earth, 31/100) (+)
Top-grade pseudo Lei Linggen (32/100)(+)
Realm: Gold Elixir Rank 57 (100/[-])

Kung Fu: Qian Yuan Zhen Jue (Minor Success: 62/100) (+)
Nirvana Immortal Thunder Jue (Minor Success: 3/100)(+)
. . .

"3100 incense value, but you can try to improve the source of thunder."

He habitually calculated the use of incense value.

This time Thunder Origin was able to easily break through Platinum Ape's Demon Domain, which surprised him quite a bit.

After all, all his preparations now are to deal with Du Qingyun.

If he can break through his sword field at that time, it will be much easier to deal with.

However, after these ten days, the Thunder Source he had consumed had recovered extremely slowly, and it was estimated that it would be difficult to recover within half a year.

However, he has no idea how much incense value will be consumed for this source of power.

Like the power of law today, it costs hundreds of incense points to increase each value, but it is more cost-effective to use exercises to improve comprehension.

Next, the application of incense value is extremely critical.

Nothing can be wasted.

After all, things like alchemy and weapon refining can be slowed down a bit.

The focus is on improving combat power.

Qianyuan Zhenjue, Guiyihunjue, Nine Transformations Puppet Art, etc.

"Give me some Thunder Origin!"

Chen Ling murmured, the panel of the silence of spiritual consciousness was on the + point behind the source of thunder.

boom!
A violent airflow suddenly appeared, gushed out from nothingness, and poured into the body.

The berserk air flow traveled all over the body, shuttling through the meridians, releasing a feeling that made one's heart tremble.

As this air flow drifted away and gradually merged into the sea of ​​air, Chen Ling felt that the thunder spirit power in his body was undergoing subtle changes.

Bursts of shocking thunder sounded around him, and violent thunder surged around his body, as if there were endless thunder seas of light and shadows emerging behind him.

In the next second, the violent airflow in the body rushed straight into the sea of ​​​​qi and merged into the thunderstorm cyclone.

After dozens of breaths, the air flow was completely absorbed into the sea of ​​​​qi.

After adding points, Chen Ling opened his eyes.

Look at the panel.

Incense value: 0
Spiritual root: Four series of top-quality spiritual roots (gold, wood, fire, earth, 31/100) (+)
Top-grade pseudo Lei Linggen (32/100)(+)
Realm: Gold Elixir Rank 57 (100/[-])

······
The Power of Origin: Thunder (Low Grade: 4/100) (+)
. . .

"More than 3 incense values, just increase the original value by 2!"

Chen Ling couldn't help but gasped.

"However, as long as you can break through the realm of monk Nascent Soul, it's worth it!"

Thinking of this, he secretly sighed.

Only monks who transform themselves have the power to use the original source.

And the original power he exerted only has the most basic explosive function.

Did not form supernatural powers.

But this is enough for him now.

It's just that this kind of rough display consumes too much.

Like the current situation, within half a year, the source of thunder in his body could not be fully recovered.

"To deal with ordinary Nascent Soul monks, there is no need to use the power of the source."

"Just using a puppet is enough. Only a swordsman monk like Du Qingyun needs to use the power of the source to break through the sword realm."

"How many monks with Du Qingyun's combat power are there in the entire Western Wilderness?"

Even Lan Yuezong and Shenweimeng, plus dozens of Nascent Soul sects under these two sects, probably would not exceed the number of two hands.

As for the cultivators who transform into gods, that's another matter.

Thinking of this, he came back to his senses, and before he knew it, he was already a top monk in the Western Wilderness!
There was also a burst of joy in my heart!
All this has not come easily!

"However, now is not the time to relax!"

Chen Ling exhaled and immediately reminded himself.

Slightly running the thunder spirit power in the body, I felt that it was obviously thicker.

Afterwards, he took out the corpse of the platinum ape from the storage ring and began to repair it.

. . .

Early the next morning.

Chen Ling was eating breakfast.

Xie Man'er, contrary to her usual calmness, hurried to the dining room, and said to Chen Ling with a happy face, "Husband! There is good news!"

Chen Ling was eating meat buns, squinted slightly, and asked with a smile, "Have you got it?"

Xie Maner sat down beside her, shook her head, and said coquettishly, "It's not that easy!"

Afterwards, he said with a smile, "Senior Zhao has already given away the land of a thousand miles near Xinling City to my Chen family, saying that it is what you deserve for killing the platinum ape this time, my husband!"

"At present, it has been found that there is a third-order high-grade spiritual vein and two third-order low-grade spiritual veins in this area, and there are three proven spiritual veins around it!"

"This is really good news!"

Chen Ling stuffed the bun into his mouth, smiled and stroked his palm, never expecting Zhao Chan to be so generous.

Xie Man'er poured a bowl of soy milk for Chen Ling, and said with a smile, "A new city happens to be built in this area, forming a tripartite rivalry with Xinling City and Yudie City."

Seeing Xie Maner's confident appearance, Chen Ling nodded and said, "You can arrange this matter!"

For a while, he had to refine the platinum ape puppet and some elixirs, and he didn't pay much attention to the family's affairs.

"I want my grandfather to take someone there!" Xie Man'er said cautiously.

This time, she was a little selfish.

Now the Chen family has rapidly improved both in terms of territory and cultivation.

Compared with the other affiliated families, the Xie family obviously does not have much advantage.

Although the clan members have good talents, the clan now trades contribution points for resources.

For example, the Qin family, Han family, and Bai family are good at refining weapons, the Lu family is good at formations, the Hu family is raising animals, and the Fang family is in charge of the elixir garden.

These can usually obtain contribution value from the family.

The Xie family was clearly at a disadvantage.

Chen Ling nodded, he had no objection.

He believed in Xie Maner's arrangement. His grandfather had been stationed in Huoyan Valley for many years, so there was no need to doubt his ability.

After breakfast, Chen Ling came to the training room and continued to deal with the platinum ape puppet.

. . .

The busy time passed quickly, and another ten days passed in a blink of an eye.

"Finally the refinement was successful!"

In the training room, Chen Ling let out a breath.

In the Void Fire Cauldron, the burly body of the platinum ape gleamed with golden light, awe-inspiring.

The whole body breath is no less than the original peak state!
That new giant arm was forged from thunder wood and fire cloud spar!
Although it didn't fit the platinum ape's attributes very well, Chen Ling fused it with a soul seal of thunder light.

Let this puppet also have the attribute of lightning.

What made Chen Ling happy was that the Platinum Ape's own combat power, in addition to possessing the Gravity Monster Domain, also had three supernatural powers, Chong Yue, Blood Explosion and Galloping.

Among them, the most unexpected thing for Chen Ling was the blood blast supernatural power. If this supernatural power was used in conjunction with the demon domain, it would not only increase the combat power of the platinum ape, but also strengthen the monster puppets in his own battle camp in the demon domain.

After thoroughly understanding the power of the platinum ape, Chen Ling was also secretly afraid.

If the Platinum Ape hadn't been bound by Zhao Chanzhen's space treasure, it would not be so easy to defeat it.

"Now that there are fourth-order puppets such as Jin Lei Peng, Lei Tianque, and Platinum Ape, I am not afraid of anyone as a monk in the early stage of Nascent Soul, but if it is against the middle and late stages of Nascent Soul."

"Then we can only rely on the source of Thunder and the Void Fire Cauldron!"

Chen Ling thought to himself.

The last time he was able to kill the Platinum Ape, it was purely a matter of time.

There is also the fifth-order Taoist artifact of the virtual fire cauldron.

As for his actual combat power, he still has a clear understanding.

Whether it is Daohai supernatural powers, golden lotus dharma, or the source of thunder, these are all used as a means of saving life.

"But having these puppets is enough!"

"As long as you add more points, you can become a fourth-level top-grade puppet master, and you can lay down a fourth-level puppet circle."

"Then these puppets may not be invincible against Du Qingyun!"

Chen Ling was thinking about it.

But now the incense value is less than [-], and it is not possible to upgrade to the fourth-rank top-rank puppet master for the time being.

[Reminder: Your wife Gao Jinyue gave birth to a top-grade fire spirit root baby boy with the blood of the seven-colored sparrow. 】

[Washing marrow pill: a fourth-order elixir, which can wash tendons and marrow, strengthen spiritual roots, and make it easier for people to break through the bottleneck of cultivation. 】

"The moon is born!"

"There is also the pill of washing marrow!"

Chen Ling glanced over the panel, feeling overjoyed.

A pill formula also appeared in the sea of ​​consciousness.

It's just that Chen Ling has no time to take care of it at the moment.

Get up in a hurry and leave the training room.

. . .

Outside, the weather has cleared up.

The bright moon is rising in the sky, and the moonlight is bright and clear, illuminating the whole courtyard brightly.

Chen Ling walked along the corridor and quickly came to Gao Jinyue's room.

The room is warm as spring.

Illuminated by the soft crystal light, it is warm.

"Husband, boy!"

The delivery team had already completed their mission, and He Yunxiu, Chu Yu, and Fang Ying were all in the room.

He Yunxiu held the baby as usual, and said to Chen Ling with a smile.

"Thanks a lot!"

Chen Ling was full of excitement, and only said this sentence.

In the past two years, there was a lot of pressure, and he spent a lot less time with his children.

But he pays close attention to every child.

"Husband, this is what we should do!"

He Yunxiu handed the child to Chen Ling and said with a smile.

In this family, she is the person who knows Chen Ling best.

Thinking about how dangerous it was for Chen Ling to go to the mine to mine in order to maintain his family's livelihood when his cultivation base was low.

But now, the family can live in such a stable way, with no worries about food and clothing, and sufficient resources for cultivation, all thanks to Chen Ling!
"Yue'er, why don't you rest more, what are you doing when you get up?"

Seeing Gao Jinyue get up and sit on the bed, Chen Ling said hastily.

"Husband, the women in our wild jungle are not so delicate."

Gao Jinyue's face was rosy, and she couldn't see that she had just given birth.

"Sister Yue, I still need to rest more!"

He Yunxiu also said hastily.

Only then did Gao Jinyue return to the bed.

"Husband, can the child be called Xingque?"

Gao Jinyue asked Chen Ling again.

Chen Ling nodded with a smile. He didn't have much idea about the child's name. The most important thing was that it was easy to remember.

With the arrival of the new baby, there is a light and festive atmosphere in the whole yard.
