Chapter 42 Absorbing Purple Qi Again
……

It seemed like a long time had passed, yet it seemed like only a moment had passed.

In the dim light, a familiar voice sounded beside Chen Xuanmo's ears: "The unfilial son Chen Ningtai brought his descendants to pay tribute to Xuanmo, the first ancestor of the Cangyi Chen family. He opened up new territories, founded the family, made outstanding contributions, and lived a great life..."

This is?

Is the eldest son Chen Ningtai reading the eulogy?
Chen Xuanmo slowly woke up amidst Chen Ningtai's chattering.

First, there was light in front of his eyes, and through the crystal wall of the lucky beads, he saw the sacrificial scene in the ancestral hall.

The descendants all knelt on the ground, and streams of purple mist floated out from them, constantly gathering on the Xuan Mo Ling Sword and then being input into the Lucky Bead.

Chen Xuanmo secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he had expected, he was finally able to survive.

After a short while, the purple energy had gathered.

Chen Xuanmo counted carefully, 86 strands of purple air, 8 more than last time.

At the same time, he clearly felt that the Xuan Mo Ling Sword had been baptized by the purple energy and seemed to have become even stronger.

The enhancement was not much, but it gave Chen Xuanmo great expectations.

If the Xuan Mo Spiritual Sword is baptized by the purple energy year after year, will it be promoted to a high-grade spiritual weapon, or even become a magic weapon? !

Unfortunately.

86 strands of purple energy were still too little. Even if not a single purple mark was bestowed upon his descendants, he could only survive as a heroic spirit for 86 days.

Chen Xuanmo sighed: "If there were hundreds or thousands of strands of purple energy at once, I wouldn't have to fall into a deep sleep and could have survived as a heroic spirit."

Perhaps possessing enough purple energy could allow the heroic spirit to undergo a qualitative transformation, thereby gaining a new life.

Chen Xuanmo fantasized for a while, then returned to the real question: "Why did the purple energy income increase this time?"

He decided to research the difference.

He used up a bit of purple energy to break away from the lucky bead, then stood with his hands behind his back and looked down at his descendants.

Let’s first look at the eldest son, Chen Ningtai.

He had lost some weight, had a few more white hairs on his temples, and there was an indelible melancholy between his brows. It was obvious that he had encountered a lot of bad things in the past year, and his cultivation had not improved much.

The increase in purple energy probably has nothing to do with him.

The second son, Chen Ningzhuo, should have also rushed back from the sect to worship his father.

His expression was also somewhat gloomy, probably because things were not going well for him, and the sequelae of his failure in breaking through to the foundation-building stage had not improved at all.

Directly eliminate his "suspicion".

Ok?
The boy Jingyun looked more mature than he was a year ago, and he looked more solemn and steady. It was obvious that he had experienced a lot in this year.

His cultivation has also become more powerful, and it seems that he is working very hard and practicing diligently.

Of course, there is still a long way to go before reaching the fifth level of Qi Refining Stage.

But when it comes to cultivating immortality, one naturally has to move forward steadily; it is impossible to achieve success overnight.

However, when Jing Yun produced purple energy last year, he was at the peak of Xuanqiao Realm, but during the sacrifice this year, he was at Lingquan Realm.

Part of the reason for the increase in purple energy may be due to him.

There was one thing that made Chen Xuanmo feel a little regretful. The little girl Wang Qianqian, whom he liked very much, was not in the sacrificial team.

It was quite obvious that the two had not yet been married.

Without the help of his ancestor, Jingyun is not good at chasing girls. It seems that I have to lend him a helping hand if I have the chance.

As his mind turned, Chen Xuanmo looked away.

Huh?
Why is there a baby in Jingrui’s wife’s arms?

Chen Xuanmo looked at Gao Peilian in surprise.

Compared to last year, Gao Peilian looked much rounder, and she was holding a swaddling baby in her arms. The baby inside was fair and tender, with black and shiny eyes, and looked quite smart.
"The family has grown by one." Chen Xuanmo felt delighted.

and many more.

Chen Xuanmo remembered that the last ray of purple energy he had before falling asleep was bestowed on Chen Jingrui.

The purple mark on his forehead had long since disappeared.

Could it be that.

Just as he expected when he tested the usefulness of purple energy for the last time, the purple mark took effect when the young couple had sex, making Pei Lian pregnant?

This possibility is not small.

Chen Xuanmo became excited and immediately moved closer to observe the child.

This baby is very beautiful, with bright black eyes that look quite intelligent. It is obvious at first glance that he has inherited Chen Xuanmo's excellent genetic bloodline.

However, under normal circumstances, a baby's spiritual roots are hidden deep inside the body and will not become apparent until they grow and develop to around eight years old.

At that time, the bone-touching and spirit-testing technique will be used to detect the child's spiritual roots. If one is unlucky and has no spiritual roots, he or she will not be able to cultivate immortality and will eventually become a mortal.

If you are luckier, you will have all five elements of spiritual roots and will be able to practice each of the five elements.

But it is precisely because the five elements are complete that each spiritual root is mediocre and it is difficult to achieve much.

And waiting until the child is eight years old is a bit too long.

Chen Xuanmo was itching to verify the result.

With a thought, he transferred a trace of purple energy to his eyes, testing whether the magical purple energy had any additional effects.

Anyway, as long as the descendants of the tribe worship him, they can obtain purple energy continuously, so there is no need to be too stingy when using it.

next moment.

His eyes were covered with a layer of purple light, as if he could see through the baby in an instant.

The child's skin, bones, and meridians appeared in his eyes like three-dimensional images. In the deepest part of his body, there seemed to be four faint lights.

Chen Xuanmo focused his attention over there, and the light suddenly became much clearer, showing four colors: red, blue, green and yellow.

This represents the four spiritual roots of fire, water, wood and earth.

Four spiritual roots!
Chen Xuanmo couldn't help but feel happy.

This child actually has four spiritual roots. Is he so lucky?
When he first tested his spiritual roots, he found out that he had "only" four spiritual roots, and he really gave up on himself for a while.

It’s just because I often read novels before I traveled through time, and there were so many stories about special spiritual roots, natural spiritual roots, and double spiritual roots.

Later I found out that the vast majority of immortal cultivators in this world have five spiritual roots.

Although the four spiritual roots are not too powerful, he can still become an elite disciple in the Yunyang Sect.

If you work hard enough and have enough resources and connections, it is possible to become a core disciple and successfully build a foundation in the future.

This is how he, Chen Xuanmo, came this far.

Later, after he married his wife Yao Qiuping, he gave birth to two children with four spiritual roots, Chen Ningtai and Chen Ningzhuo. Theoretically speaking, he was quite lucky.

Unfortunately.

At that time, the Chen family was far from being as powerful as it is today. When they first came to Cangyiwei to establish their clan, they were seen as no different from wild cultivators and refugees by the nearby big clans, and it was almost impossible to form an alliance with them through marriage.

Therefore, the eldest son Chen Ningtai got married very late, and married the legitimate daughter of the Cangyi Zhang family, a small and inferior family.

Most of the small and second-rate families often haven't had a child with four spiritual roots for many generations, so even the birth of a child with five spiritual roots is considered good luck.

This also resulted in the fact that none of Chen Ningtai's descendants had the four spiritual roots.

Fortunately, after Chen Xuanmo gradually gained a firm foothold and was recognized by the surrounding immortal cultivation families, they began to intermarry with each other.

Even the eldest grandson, Chen Daoling, took advantage of the cooperation between the market and the town to marry Zhao Mengyan, the granddaughter of the Guangling ancestor.

Perhaps it was an opportunity that came along, or perhaps the Zhao family's direct bloodline did have great potential.

Zhao Mengyan actually gave birth to two children with four spiritual roots, namely Chen Jingyun and Chen Jinghuan.

This also alleviated the embarrassing situation of the Cangyi Chen family having no successors.

It was precisely because the four spiritual roots were rare that Jingrui and Peilian gave birth to a child with four spiritual roots that made Chen Xuanmo extremely happy.

Besides, the child’s maternal family is the Hedong Gao family, which has no conflict of interest with the Chen family.

In the future, this child can become a bond between the two tribes and strengthen their close relationship.

The only pity is that the child lacks gold in the five elements and is unable to practice the Chen family's only superior foundation-building method [Golden Yuan Body Tempering Technique].

"what?"

Chen Xuanmo suddenly discovered that the green color in the child's spiritual roots seemed slightly brighter than the other three colors.

He knew that the various spiritual roots in a cultivator's body were often relatively balanced with little deviation, but there would always be slight differences in strength.

However, it is difficult to detect the difference through ordinary bone-touching and spirit-testing techniques.

The purple energy really has infinite uses, and it can even reveal the slightest difference in spiritual roots at a glance.

The strong wood spiritual root means that if this child practices wood-based exercises, he will have a slight advantage over practicing the other three-based exercises.

Although this advantage is not particularly obvious, after years of practice in the Qi Refining Stage, which can easily be dozens of years, the overall progress may be accelerated by two or three years, and the chance of building a foundation can also be increased.

It’s a pity that the family currently does not have the wood element foundation building method.

But now that Chen Xuanmo has the purple energy plug-in, and with Jing Yun's cooperation, it may not be impossible for him to get the wood element foundation-building technique.

Thinking of this, Chen Xuanmo was very happy.

We, the Chen family of Cangyi, have a promising future.
