Chapter 150： still alive

"This is the place where our Jiang family entertains distinguished guests—Ming Huan Lou. We welcome three fellow Taoists from the Zhengyang Sect." Jiang Tao, a foundation-builder cultivator of the Jiang family, who was dressed in dark blue clothes, smiled and turned his head to walk in front of him. The three Xie Miao behind him introduced.

But after turning his head, Jiang Tao saw that the foundation cultivators in Minghuan Building were so arrogant, and his smiling face turned livid in a blink of an eye. How could the Jiang family have been so wronged for hundreds of years? Customers dare to come to the door. But he thought of something again, and his eyes dimmed a bit.

The news that the ancestor of the Jiang family fell in the islands of the South China Sea has been widely known, but the clear water swimming sand array left by the Jiang family cannot be broken by a few foundation builders.

But just a few days ago, the Jiang family's formation was forcefully blasted out again. The second elder of the Jiang family's ninth floor who presided over the formation was seriously injured due to the backlash of the formation. He could only let the other party in, Jiang Taoxian was very angry.

Fu Dahai looked inside the door with great interest, while Zhang Shiping looked solemn, thinking that their task this time was not easy, and hoped that they could go through it smoothly. For the sake of the Zhengyang Sect, the Foundation Establishment cultivators on the other side, as well as the Jindan Daoist behind them, would be good enough not to embarrass them too much this time.

Yesterday they mentioned that they wanted to go and see the soul lamp left by the ancestor of the Jiang family, but the Jiang family pushed back at the banquet, and when the final banquet was over, the three of them didn't know whether the soul lamp was on or off, so they couldn't be sure. The ancestor of the Jiang family is dead or alive.

For Zhang Shiping and the others, the actions of the Jiang family were tantamount to self-reporting. In Zhang Shiping's heart, he believed in the news that the ancestor of the Jiang family died in the Hainan Islands, from the initial five points, to eight points.

After the banquet was over, the three of them waited for the Jiang family to leave, and then got together to discuss for a while. But not long after they left and returned to their own rooms, the Jiang family may have discussed it, and the second elder of the Jiang family came to invite them to the Jiang family ancestral hall. Zhang Shiping and the three of them finally saw the lamp left by the ancestor of the Jiang family in the ancestral hall. Soul Lamp.

Like the other soul lamps in the ancestral hall, it is about a foot high, and the whole body is blue-black. The noble aura of the Jindan cultivator cannot be faked. The stone body of the soul lamp is still emitting light, which is extremely weak. From this soul lamp Judging from the situation, even if the ancestor of the Jiang family did not die, the situation is not much better.

After they finished watching, the second elder of the Jiang family led Zhang Shiping and the others out immediately, and asked them not to tell anything about the fact that the ancestor was still alive on the way. Although he said please, but the second elder of the Jiang family in the later stage of foundation establishment locked Zhang Shiping and the three of them firmly, and there were also four foundation establishment qi mechanisms revealed inside and outside the ancestral hall, focusing on Xie Miao, the Xie family monk.

Seeing this posture, even if Xie Miao, a cultivator from the Xie family, was unwilling, he knew that form was better than others, and he swore an oath honestly, at most, he would tell Sect Leader Chang about this matter, and the others could not reveal a single word. Otherwise, I will definitely die. She wanted to make a lighter oath, but the second elder of the Jiang family was not satisfied, so she made up the oath of death.

Zhang Shiping and Fu Dahai in the back, under the watchful eyes of these Jiang Family Foundation Establishment monks, just like Xie Miao, had no choice but to make an oath. The expressions on the faces of the two of them were extremely bad, their faces were ashen, and they lost their basic politeness when they looked at the second elder of the Jiang family.

Seeing that the three of them had made the oath, the second elder of the Jiang family and the other foundation-builder monks withdrew their aura to lock Zhang Shiping and the three of them. The second elder of the Jiang family apologized with a smile, then took out three storage bags from his arms, and stuffed them into the hands of the three of them one by one. Zhang Shiping took the storage bag, and took a look at it with his spiritual sense. He was relieved a little bit from the extremely unhappy feeling just now because he was forced to make an oath.

After Xie Miao took the storage bag, she still had a cold expression on her face. She really wanted to say that after she would report to the head of the Ming sect, if the news spread to the outside world, it would be none of her business. But Xie Miao thought in her mind, if she said this, wouldn't it imply that the head of Chang's door was not strict, so she didn't say it, but she was bored in her heart, glared at the second elder angrily, and took Zhang Shiping The two leave.

After Xie Miao and the others left, the second elder of the Jiang family coughed heart-piercingly, his face turned pale from rosy. He looked at the direction Xie Miao and the others were leaving with extremely complicated eyes, and finally sighed, this was the only way to do it for now, hoping that the Zongmen, who had always had a good reputation as the head of the sect, could handle things fairly.

The Jiang family really does not want the news that the ancestor is still alive to be known to outsiders. Judging from the state of the soul lamp, although the ancestor of the Jiang family is still alive, he is in extremely poor condition. It is not an exaggeration to say that he has only one breath left. .

The ancestor of the Jiang family must have suffered a life-and-death catastrophe. He even gave up his own talisman just to pretend to be dead and escape. The Jiang family naturally wanted to keep this a secret. The Zhengyang Sect had sent people over to look at it before. At that time, the soul lamp was still in good condition. In order to frighten Xiao Xiao, the Jiang family spread the news, but no one in the Jiang family coveted it anymore.

But then came the news of the ancestor's fall, worried that he had dragged the ancestor down, and everyone in the Jiang family regretted it, so when Zhang Shiping and the others came this time, the second elder of the Jiang family specially asked them to make an oath . Of course, in order to appease their grievances, their Jiang family specially sent Zhang Shiping and the three of them 3,000 spirit stones each, which can be described as a hemorrhage.

Thinking of what the Jiang family did last night, Zhang Shiping and the three of them had no intention of provoking the other party's Foundation Establishment cultivators and the Jindan Daoist behind them for the sake of the Jiang family, but as representatives of the righteous The three of them in Yangzong couldn't show their weakness from the very beginning. If it got out, it would be a trivial matter for them to lose face. If the Zongmen's face was damaged, Zhang Shiping and the others couldn't bear it.

Xie Miao, who was walking between the two of them, also knew the seriousness of the matter, and at this time, she couldn't let the other Foundation Establishment cultivators look down on the Zhengyang Sect for the sake of losing Jiang family's face. Anyway, if something happened to the Jindan patriarch of the Jiang family, then the decline of the Jiang family would be a certainty. Unless someone from the Jiang family can break through and become a new Jindan Daoist within a year or two.

Thinking of this, Xie Miao smiled, her Xie family is also a Jindan family now, but the family does not even have a monk with a ninth floor of foundation building, so it is not so easy to talk about forming a pill. As soon as her ice spirit root aptitude was tested, she immediately became the apple of the Xie family's eye. Even Xie Ping, the Jindan patriarch of the Xie family who had been in the Zhengyang sect all year round, thought about it over and over again. Finally, when she was in her early tenth year, she She came to her side and taught herself.

With the careful teaching of the ancestor Jindan and the full support of the family, in the end he was under the watchful eyes of the ancestor, and he never relaxed at all. Only then did he achieve the middle stage of foundation establishment at the age of less than thirty years old. For monks like them who came from the Golden Core family, as long as their spiritual roots are good, they can basically succeed in building a foundation, except for a few monks who are really unlucky and fail to build a foundation after using the Foundation Establishment Pill three or five times. In the world of cultivating immortals, it is not unheard of.

Even cultivator Tianlinggen died early, and other sects knew the news, so they would not see the chance of Nascent Soul cultivator appearing in other sects.
