Ascension Through Generations

After the night celebration banquet, the Lu family specially set aside a cave with the most spiritual energy in the inner city for Zhao Sheng to stay.

Just when he was safely living in the cave, the news that a Nascent Soul Ancestor had joined his clan's camp quickly spread throughout Luchuan City.

In the Da Chun world of immortality, no one dares to underestimate the influence of Yuanying realm monks.

Zhao Sheng's unexpected appearance immediately excited everyone in the Lu family and boosted their morale.

On the contrary, that night, after the senior officials of the Luo family were suddenly informed that a Nascent Soul ancestor had unexpectedly died in their camp, Luo An and most of the Jindan masters changed their expressions on the spot, and had numerous doubts in their hearts.

The next morning, the Luo family's army suddenly retreated to the military city. The powerful offensive that had lasted for many days came to an abrupt end on this day.

Seeing this situation, everyone in the Lu family was overjoyed and quickly took advantage of this rare opportunity to withdraw the Taoist soldiers who had been fighting for many days and rotate in new Taoist soldiers. At the same time, seize the time to repair the damaged defensive formation, replace the old spiritual stone formation base, and treat the wounded, etc.

In this way, both sides stopped fighting for half a month to repair, which undoubtedly gave the Lu family a great chance to breathe.

However, in the past half month, more and more bad news has been introduced into Hongchuan City. Most of the spiritual lands and resource points outside the Lu family have been breached, and finally fell under the control of the Luo family.

Seeing that the situation was getting worse, Lu Pingyang decisively passed down a decree, ordering the family to abandon all peripheral territories and shrink their sphere of influence back to Hongchuan City. At the same time, he ordered some of the estranged tribesmen to flee to other states as soon as possible. If they are not summoned, they will never be allowed to return to the homeland.

The turmoil in Hongchuan City did not affect Zhao Sheng at all.

Ever since he moved into the cave, the Lu family had taken great care of him. Not only did they send him many rare treasures, but they also took the initiative to send more than thirty beautiful girls into the cave to serve as maids serving tea and water.

Of course, this mere external temptation cannot affect Zhao Sheng's immovable Zen mind at all.

On the third day, Zhao Xuanan and his wife came to ask for an audience, and soon they successfully met the unknown ancestor.

In the subsequent exchanges of greetings, the beautiful woman tried her best to please him, but Zhao Xuanan hesitated several times.

Seeing their appearance, Zhao Sheng felt relieved and left the couple in the cave afterwards.

In his spare time, he gave Zhao Xuanan some guidance on his practice several times. After a while, Zhao Xuanan improved greatly in his cultivation. Not only did he successfully master the essence of Xinyi Fist, he even vaguely saw the way forward to Nascent Soul.

Half a month later, the Luo family's army regrouped and resumed their offensive. The intensity of this siege battle was far greater than before, reaching a tragic level.

Not only that, the Luo family sent out all the elite Taoist soldiers to surround the entire Hongchuan City, sealing off all escape routes on the periphery and cutting off internal and external connections.

Rumble, rumble...

Over Hongchuan City, the huge roar day and night faintly suppressed the shouts and screams above the city, and countless colorful light explosion clouds exploded in the sky.

Every moment, thousands of golden guns, water swords, boulders and other basic five-element spells bombard the giant city barrier, constantly consuming a large amount of the city's spiritual stone reserves. After many days of bombardment, the defensive barrier's brightness has decreased. It has become much bleaker.

Thousands of feet high in the sky, the floating saucer boat belonging to the Lu family was beaten back steadily. As a result, it had to avoid the enemy's sharp edges and suddenly launched guerrilla tactics to delay the defeat as much as possible.

But in this way, part of the Luo family's flying fleet was able to withdraw and conduct high-altitude bombings against Hongchuan City below.

Under such a chain reaction, the Lu family had to take the risk and send out the family's golden elixir to intercept the bombing Diszhou warships.

All of a sudden, strong attacks and sneak attacks were launched, and the boats fell one after another, with outstanding results.

However, the Luo family was not a vegetarian. They seized the opportunity to set up "death traps" several times.

As a result, while the Lu family's golden elixirs shot down a large number of disc boats, casualties began to appear.

After several months of fighting, as many as four Jindan masters on the Lu family's side actually fell to their opponents, and the number of casualties reached 20% of the total number of Jindan masters of the Lu family. It can be said that they were injured and suffered heavy casualties.

Compared with the casualties of the Lu family's golden elixir, the number of casualties of the Luo family was not far behind.

During this offensive and defensive battle, several members of the Luo family's golden elixirs died for unknown reasons. As a result, no one knew who the murderer was. Among the fallen people, there was even Luo An, the most promising person in the Xiling lineage to compete for the position of "Tree Lord".

This person has already reached the realm of the Great Perfection of the Golden Elixir. He is almost invincible in the same realm of the Golden Elixir. He is the most promising candidate for the Tree Master by the Xiling Patriarch.

Unexpectedly, such a top great master was unexpectedly shot and killed by the elder of the Lu family during a siege. At that time, everyone's jaws were shocked.

Just a few days after this incident, bad news came again. When Master Luo Shuangquan led his team to capture the second-level spiritual vein somewhere, all the personnel disappeared without any reason, and there has been no whereabouts since then.

This incident immediately alarmed the old man in silver armor. This person rushed to the place where the incident occurred to find out the whereabouts of everyone, but found nothing.

But no clues can be found, which is the biggest "flaw".

Afterwards, several Nascent Soul ancestors headed by the old man in silver armor agreed that this matter must have been done by a Nascent Soul monk who "regardless of his identity", otherwise he would not have done it so "perfectly".

Since the Lu family broke the "tacit understanding" between the two parties, the Luo family should retaliate.

So during a ship-breaking operation, the second elder of the Lu family also died "accidentally".

Because someone secretly took action, the intensity of this battle escalated rapidly. The offensive and defensive battle that was supposed to last for a long time suddenly became intense.

The occurrence of this unexpected change inadvertently caused Lu Pingyang's plan to go bankrupt midway.

He originally planned to delay the decisive battle as long as possible, in order to consume the Luo family's vitality while waiting for the ancient Mo family to come forward to "justice".

After all, the northwest territory of China is the traditional sphere of influence of the Mo family. The Luo family's Xiling lineage's attack on the Lu family simply represents some kind of provocation.

It's just that the Luo family has plenty of excuses, which leaves the Mo family with no reason to intervene for the time being.

However, as long as Hongchuan City cannot be captured for a long time and the Luo family uses all its "three axes", the Mo family can come forward to seek justice under the "begging" of the Lu family, thereby forcing the Luo family to cease the war and withdraw.

Lu Pingyang thought beautifully, but was slapped in the face by reality. Things in the world are unpredictable and unpredictable and beyond human control.

Not long after, Lu Pingyang almost died on the spot in an accident involving his elbow and armpit.

…

On this day, the dusk was dim and the sky was filled with red clouds like blood.

At this moment, in the depths of the cave, Zhao Sheng crossed his legs and closed his eyes, his whole body bursting with lightning. He held a Xuanying spiritual stone in each hand, and an endless stream of Xuanying spiritual energy poured into the sea of ​​​​Dantian, and was refined bit by bit into silky purple. Xiao Lei Li.

Suddenly, there was a soft clicking sound from the side of Zhao Sheng's waist.

Zhao Sheng frowned, opened his eyes and looked down, and saw that the pure white jade pendant around his waist was full of cracks and almost shattered.

Seeing this scene, his expression suddenly changed slightly. Immediately, dazzling lightning shot up all over his body, and instantly turned into a ball of lightning, and his body disappeared in a flash.

After a breath, a ball of lightning suddenly rose into the sky from the inner city and headed straight for the Great Chun Sacred Tree behind.

Dozens of miles flew by.

This ball of lightning flew over the green tree canopy, which was as big as a mountain, and reached the canopy of the sea of ​​clouds in an instant.

Suddenly, the vision suddenly opened up, and the red clouds were like blood staining the sky and the sea of ​​clouds.

At this time, a Nascent Soul-level battle suddenly started on the top of the tree canopy. Five or six Nascent Soul Ancestors were chasing and fighting in hundreds of miles of cloud sea. The battle was extremely fierce.

The thunder light rushed into the sea of ​​clouds, immediately alarming both sides of the war.

"Brother Zhao, save me!"

When Lu Pingyang, who was seriously injured, saw the savior coming, he immediately shouted to Zhao Sheng with great excitement.

Zhao Sheng frowned and glanced around, instantly taking in all the Nascent Soul Ancestors.

At this time, the Lu family was at an absolute disadvantage, the situation was already precarious, and defeat was imminent.

The reason is clear at a glance, because at some point, the red-faced old man actually chose to "reverse" and was besieging Lu Pingyang with all his strength.

The young woman with black hair held Biba in her arms, strumming the pipa strings with bloody fingers, releasing countless invisible sound knives, barely resisting the siege of the two men of the same rank.

"Brother Lu, don't worry, I'm here!" After Zhao Sheng shouted loudly, he swayed and came to Lu Pingyang as if teleporting, and then waved his long sleeves.

Amidst the sharp whistling sound, eighteen jet-black sword lights shot out from his sleeves one after another. After a while, they turned into eighteen jet-black giant swords with unparalleled sharpness and awe-inspiring sword intent.

Zhao Sheng's face was solemn, and as his thoughts flashed, eighteen giant black swords, carrying earth-shattering majestic sword intent, slashed at all hostile Nascent Souls at the same time, as fast as lightning.

"Don't block it, retreat quickly!"

When the silver-armored old man saw the giant sword slashing down, his face changed wildly. He immediately sent a message to his companions and at the same time, he retreated dozens of miles away.

At the same time, the other three Nascent Soul Ancestors also sensed the terrifying sword intent of the pitch-black giant sword, and they all retreated without hesitation.

The Black Abyss Sword is a spiritual treasure. Once its full power is unleashed, its power is terrifying!

Seeing this situation, Lu Pingyang and the young lady Pipa were filled with ecstasy about surviving the disaster. They hurriedly retreated behind Zhao Sheng, and then took pills and talismans to recover their injuries and mana.

"Fortunately, fellow Taoist Zhao came to the rescue, otherwise something would have happened to Lu." Lu Pingyang thanked Zhao Sheng with a grateful face.

At this time, bursts of blue light appeared all over his body, and dense fibrous granulations quickly sprouted from the large hole in his chest. His breath quickly stabilized, and the color returned to his face.

"Brother Lu, you need to be more careful when making friends in the future." Zhao Sheng glanced at the people across from him, his eyes paused on the red-faced old man, and then he said lightly.

Lu Pingyang's face turned red, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I have been friends with Nan Xiazi for more than a thousand years. I never expected that this old thief would secretly join the Luo family. I don't know people well, so I deserve this disaster."

"Humph, why are you talking about such useless nonsense! Lu Lang, if you didn't have a back-up plan, we would probably be a pair of desperate couple today." Mrs. Tianyin gritted her teeth and said with a complicated expression.

When Zhao Sheng heard this, he suddenly realized that these two people were actually a Taoist couple. No wonder the young woman with black hair kept fighting to the death.

"Tianyin, I. I'm sorry for you. If the situation is over, you can escape for your own life. Don't act out of emotion." Lu Pingyang showed a wry smile and secretly transmitted the message.

But on the surface, he said very confidently: "Don't worry! I have sent an urgent request for help to the Mo family. We only need to delay for a while, and the Mo family will definitely send a great monk to come forward to solve the dilemma."

Zhao Sheng's eyes flickered when he heard this, and a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes. How could Lu Pingyang's little tricks be hidden from his eyes and ears?

At this time, the silver-armored old man flew forward with a gloomy expression, followed by four Yuanying realm monks behind him.

"Fellow Taoist, the Lu family is destined to perish, so why do you have to interfere in this matter. If you can retreat in time, my Luo family will be grateful." The old man in silver armor did not look at Lu Pingyang and the two, but instead persuaded Zhao Sheng to retreat. .

"Haha, only a three-year-old child would believe such a clumsy lie. I killed a blind Nascent Soul of the Luo family with my own hands. How could such a deep hatred be settled with just one word? How naive!" Zhao Sheng laughed and said in a tone of voice. There is an obvious sense of ridicule in it.

"Bah, you are so shameless! Since you are so stubborn, let's destroy the Lu family together!" The person who cursed angrily was a big man with a leopard head and ringed eyes.

This person was born with big shoulders and a round waist, and his muscles were bulging, making him look extremely strong. His head was full of green snake hair, and he looked like he was not a human being.

Next to the leopard-headed man is a feminine young man wearing a snow-white robe with wings on his back.

Its body shape is almost the same as that of a human race, but the skin on its face is as pale as snow. It is born with a pair of snake eyes and its eyes are indifferent. Just standing there gives people a feeling of cruelty and ruthlessness.

The red-faced old man Nan Xiazi stayed away from the two demon kings and stood with an ink-armored giant with nine dark spears stuck on his back.

"Brother Lu, you have seen the situation in front of you. It's not that Zhao didn't take action, the situation is actually too dangerous. If I read correctly, the old man in silver armor should be Luo Jiu, the great monk of the Luo family. This man is powerful and possesses magic weapons. There are so many of them, it’s extremely troublesome. Plus those two Nascent Soul Demon Kings. It’s hard for me to stop them from being attacked by so many people.”

Hearing this voice transmission, Lu Pingyang's heart sank, but his face didn't show it at all.

After a pause, he suddenly heard: "...More money is required!"

Lu Pingyang was immediately overjoyed and sent a message back instantly, promising a series of generous gifts without hesitation.

On the other side, the leopard-headed man had become impatient. Immediately, under the secret signal of the silver-armored old man, he suddenly made a seal with his hands, and a frightening green light emitted from his body, instantly turning into a miserable green light cloud.

Immediately afterwards, the big man opened his mouth and squirted, and a stream of extremely fishy viscous liquid quickly sank into the green cloud.

With a "Pfft" sound, the miserable green cloud was like a ignited oil fire, instantly turning into a raging poisonous cloud, emitting shocking fluctuations, and covering the heads of Zhao Sheng and the others.

At the same moment, the red-faced old man muttered something, and the red light on his body shone brightly, and then the top of his head fluctuated, and the phantoms of three ferocious monster insect heads the size of houses appeared for a flash, and then disappeared into three blurry blood shadows in a flash.

The void in front of Zhao Sheng fluctuated, and three vivid strange insect heads appeared in a flash. Then they opened their bloody mouths and bit down hard on his head.

Before the three insect heads fell, a creepy and vicious aura was transmitted first, making people's hearts tremble and inexplicably give rise to some fear.
