Ascension Through Generations

well!

After letting out a long sigh, Zhao Sheng said with a worried look on his face: "Guiyuan Sect is now in a precarious situation and is about to become a target! I have to find a way out!"

Zhou Zhongyu was very confused, "Brother Zhao, the Guiyuan Sect is now unparalleled in Central Continent, and its momentum is booming! Why do you think so little of it?"

"Brother Zhou, have you ever heard of blood blight syndrome?"

"Have heard a little bit!"

Zhao Sheng then explained in detail the relationship between blood blight syndrome and Guiyuan Sect, and did not conceal the fact that the "Blood Soul Sutra" would deplete one's lifespan.

After Zhou Zhongyu heard this, he was greatly shocked. Only then did he understand why Zhao Sheng had to find a way out in advance.

"Brother Zhao, could it be that you have also practiced the "Blood Soul Sutra"?" He couldn't help but ask in the end.

Zhao Sheng smiled bitterly and nodded, "Otherwise, with my inferior qualifications of the Four Spiritual Roots, how could I have cultivated to the seventh level of foundation building!"

"Haha! To put it bluntly, you are trading your life for cultivation! I don't know how many years I can live." Zhao Sheng flipped up his white hair and smiled wryly at himself.

"Brother Zhao." Zhou Zhongyu looked at his drinking partner with great sympathy.

However, Zhao Sheng was very free and easy and asked directly: "Brother Zhou, please give me a nice word. Will your Zhou family accept this guest?"

"Take it! Of course I have to take it! Brother Zhao is a great monk in the late stage of foundation building. My cultivation level can surpass Brother Zhao's by less than five fingers. If I don't take it, I will be a fool and a fool!" Zhou Zhongyu quickly agreed.

"I still have some trivial matters to deal with here. In half a month, I will go to Hongyangzhou for a visit!"

"That little brother simply won't go back to Hongyangzhou for the time being. Wait a month and then go on the road with Brother Zhao." Zhou Zhongyu said with a very surprised expression after hearing this.

Zhao Sheng smiled slightly when he saw this, but did not refuse the other party's kindness.

Half a month later, after Zhao Sheng finished handling the matters at Feng Yutang, he and Zhou Zhongyu took the shuttle and left the Moon Spring Oasis.

Hongyangzhou and Moon Spring are probably more than 8,000 miles apart.

Unlike Moon Spring, which has a radius of only thirty miles, Hongyang Continent is roughly oval-shaped with a diameter of more than a thousand miles. It has flat terrain, fertile land, and a population of over ten million.

Because it was the dry season and black sandstorms were raging, it took Zhao Sheng and the two of them seventeen days to reach Hongyangzhou with difficulty.

After entering Hongyang Continent, the wind and sand suddenly decreased, and the speed of the airship quickly increased to the top speed. In just a quarter of an hour, it flew five to six hundred miles and arrived at a lively and prosperous oasis city.

Zhou City is one of the rare above-ground cities in the Tianhuang Territory. Although the city area is not large, it has a population of nearly one million, and more importantly, most of them have the surname Zhou.

The ancestral home of the Zhou family is located in the most central and prosperous area of ​​Zhou City, occupying nearly half of the entire city.

Looking down from the sky, you can see a layer of earthy yellow light covering the Zhou family's ancestral home. Occasionally, streams of light will appear on the light mask, and the light contains a faint and powerful pressure.

Driven by Zhou Zhongyu, the flying boat easily passed through the defensive light shield and landed in a large mansion in the building complex below.

Next, things went very smoothly!

There is Zhou Zhongyu as a guarantee, and Zhao Sheng's identity is innocent.

The Zhou family was overjoyed that such a late-stage Foundation Establishment candidate volunteered to join!

After Zhao Sheng met Zhou Yingze, the head of the family, he immediately became the chief guest of the Zhou family. As for the salary and other benefits, there is no need to go into details.

In addition, the Zhou family specially set aside a piece of land for Zhao Sheng around Zhou Zhongyu's mansion and built a luxurious mansion according to Zhao Sheng's opinions.

After becoming the chief guest, Zhao Sheng instantly became the "hot potato" in the eyes of the Zhou clan.

The foundation-building monks of the Zhou family came to visit one after another and presented various precious treasures. Their conversations either implicitly or explicitly expressed their intentions of wooing and showing goodwill.

When it comes to "wooing" and showing goodwill, Zhao Sheng is very good at dealing with several major branches of the Zhou family. Although he is impartial on the surface and does not offend anyone, he is secretly moving closer to the head of the family.

It didn't take long for Zhao Sheng to establish a generous and kind person in the Zhou family.

Don’t forget, Zhao Sheng is not only good at making wine, but he is also an extremely skilled talisman master.

In just half a year, he gave away no less than twenty second-level true talismans.

In addition, various unique spiritual wines were given out like water. Not only were all the foundation-building monks of the Zhou family included, but even some of the junior Qi refiners also received gifts from Zhao Sheng.

Facing such a generous and approachable "guest minister", the Zhou family felt that they had found a treasure.

Some people with dark minds even murmured secretly that the "chief guest" has no children and will not live for many years.

After he dies, all his belongings will belong to the Zhou family.

Therefore, the Zhao Mansion quickly became very lively, and the Zhou family's foundation builders brought their juniors to the door one after another, hoping that Zhao Sheng would accept him as his disciple.

This move played right into Zhao Sheng's heart, and he would not refuse anyone who came.

The Zhou family is not stupid;

After Zhao Sheng joined the Zhou family, the head of the family, Zhou Yingze, immediately secretly sent people to Xuantie City, Guiyuan Sect, Tianzhu Mountain and other places to inquire about Zhao Sheng's life story.

Half a year later, the spies came back one after another, and the result was that, as Zhao Sheng said, there was no falsehood in his life experience.

hehe! Zhao Sheng has been planning to destroy the Zhou family for nearly sixty years, how could a mere spy discover his flaws!

From then on, although the Zhou family could not completely trust him, except for some secrets of the family, other things would not be deliberately hidden from Zhao Sheng.

Of course, Zhao Sheng has a very good sense of proportion. He abides by his duties as a guest and will not deliberately inquire about the Zhou family's affairs.

However, his reputation as a good drinker and a better drinker became more and more solid in the hearts of the Zhou family, and eventually he and Zhou Zhongyu were known as the "two drunken friends".

…

one year later,

Great Yong Dynasty, Yongjing.

On this day, there was a crowd of people in front of the Wanbao Auction House, and there were all the immortal cultivators that were rarely seen on ordinary days, not even a single mortal.

Every year in the first month after the rainy season in Tianhuang Territory, Yongjing holds the annual Wanbao Fair.

Every year, countless immortal cultivators are attracted to Yongjing to participate in this rare event in the wilderness.

Wanbao Auction House is the main venue of Wanbao Fair.

There are rumors...

"No need to spread rumors! This Wanbao Auction House is the property of the royal family, the Mo family! They earn mountains and seas of spiritual stones every year!"

In the elegant room of a restaurant facing the street, Zhou Zhongyu looked at the bustling crowd below and said to Zhao Sheng with envy on his face.

Zhao Sheng chuckled and said in a calm tone: "This Mo family has Yuanying Ancestor sitting in charge, so what's the point of Wanbao Auction House? This Great Yong Dynasty belongs to his Mo family. We are absolutely incomparable. Unless... the Zhou family can A thousand-year Nascent Soul is born!”

Zhou Zhongyu rolled his eyes when he heard this, but did not continue.

Zhao Sheng glanced at him slightly, his eyes shining with an inexplicable light.

"By the way, why did the head of the family insist on dragging me to Yongjing? Don't you know that I am very busy?"

Hearing his elder brother's complaint, Zhou Zhongyu suddenly smiled bitterly and said: "Brother Zhao, your precious disciples are almost spoiled by you! The head of the family really couldn't stand it anymore, so he brought you to Yongjing. In addition, you can help the family as a member of the family. Return to the secret hand."

"Hidden hand? What secret hand? Is there something at home that is inconvenient to take pictures of?" Zhao Sheng asked with an inexplicable light in his eyes, but his expression was slightly curious.

"That's right! Brother Zhao, please look!"

With that said, Zhou Zhongyu handed over a folded piece of paper.

Zhao Sheng took it and opened it, and saw the four bold characters "Golden Ring Spirit Earthworm" written on the first line.
