The Rise of the Shen Family

The rising sun shines on Yunbi Peak, and the ancestral hall of the Shen family is shining in the sunlight. In the open space in front of the ancestral hall, several five- or six-year-old children lined up in a row, as if waiting for something.

One of the children pulled the sleeve of the adult next to him,

"Father, what kind of spirit root do you think I am, if only Tian Ling root is good." The child said innocently, because he heard that Tian Ling root is the most powerful.

The adults on the side couldn't help laughing, and scolded lovingly:

"What do you think Tianlinggen is, not to mention our Shen family, not even Qingyunmen. We haven't seen Tianlinggen in Lingnan for thousands of years. You are daydreaming!"

"Maybe?" The child said a little aggrieved.

"Alright, alright, our family Chi'er is a celestial spirit. He cultivated into a great cultivator and then protected his family, okay?" The man said lovingly.

"Okay!" The child smiled happily.

...

The door of the ancestral hall finally opened. The child watched other children enter and then come out again. He was very curious about what was going on inside the ancestral hall. Does it take so long to measure the spiritual root?

The child looked anxious,

"Why isn't it my turn?"

Finally it was his turn, he happily ran inside, but thinking of what the adults said, don't be rude and rude in front of the ancestral hall, and immediately slowed down and walked in slowly.

Entering the ancestral hall, he saw a row of wooden plaques enshrined there, from high down, with candles lit beside them. He saw an old man sitting in front of the spiritual seat looking at him.

"What are you looking at, the little guy, you haven't come over yet." The old man looked at him lovingly.

"Oh."

The child walked towards the old man, only to see his head full of white hair and wrinkles on his face, but his aura was so approachable that he couldn't help but lean over.

"Put your hand here and let me see."

The child put it up obediently, thinking in his heart:

"This is the Spiritual Root. I wonder if my Spiritual Root is the Heavenly Spiritual Root?"

The old man grabbed the child's wrist, injected a spiritual power into it, and began to probe his spiritual roots.

After a while, the old man looked happy and said:

"OK!"

Then another spiritual power was injected into it, and the child did not dare to speak when he looked at the old man. After a while, the old man finally let go of the child's wrist and laughed:

"Good! Good! Heaven will never die for my Shen family! Hahahaha..."

I saw the old man's face full of smiles, laughing like crazy to the sky.

The child was so frightened by the old man in front of him that he dared not look at him.

After the old man laughed, he noticed the child and asked excitedly:

"What is your name."

"My name is Shen Chi."

"Shen Chi, Shen Chi... galloping the world, not bad, not bad."

As he spoke, he opened a black book and wrote, "Shen Huanchi".

"Come here." Said to the child.

Point to the newly written word and say to the child:

"This is your new name, Shen Huanchi."

The child saw the names written all over it,

"Shen Yucang, Wang Lingwen, Shen Wen..." It's just that these names are blood red.

I finally found my name below, but the names of myself and a few others are black.

"Come and drop a drop of blood." The old man said and picked up the child's hand, and a drop of blood dripped on the name at once, and the three words suddenly seemed to be alive, and they became more agile.

The child pointed to his name and the red name above and asked:

"Why is mine black."

The old man was silent for a while, then pointed to the only black name in the row above and said:

"Because we're still alive."

The child looked at the name he pointed to, Shen Wenhong.

The child nodded knowingly.

"Come with me.

"

Before coming to the spiritual place,

"Kneel down and kowtow three times."

Just as he kowtowed, a solemn voice came,

"Shen Huanchi, the third-generation descendant of the Shen family, listen, I hope you will practice hard, uphold the teachings of your ancestors, and keep the inheritance of the Shen family."

The child was quite shocked and couldn't help but say

"Yes."

Everything was calm, and the old man looked at him with indescribable joy.

"Get up and report to the Shuwu Hall."

The old man returned to the mat again, closing his eyes and thinking about it.

When the child was about to leave, he suddenly remembered something and said:

"Am I Tian Linggen?"

"no."

The kid is a little frustrated.

"You are the root of the earth." The old man stopped talking.

...

The child walked out of the ancestral hall and came to his own adults, looking depressed.

"What's wrong with Chi'er, has the patriarch given him a name?"

"Well, my name is Shen Huanchi."

"Hahaha, okay, my son is also a cultivator." The child's father suddenly became happy.

"But Dad, the old man inside said that I am the root of the earth." The child looked frustrated.

"Earth Spirit Root? I've never heard of this before." The man thought for a while and said. After all, he is only a mortal, and he doesn't know what the earth spirit root is. He only knows that the sky spirit root is very rare.

Looking at his son's expression, he comforted:

"It's okay, we can cultivate if we can. It's much better than me. Your mother and I can live off of you at the foot of the mountain."

During the conversation between father and son, the two walked towards Shuwutang.

...

Five years have passed since the spirit root was detected, and Shen Huanchi is already the one with the highest cultivation level in the family school, with the fourth level of Qi training.

Now he also understands the meaning of the root of the earth, and also understands why the old man was so happy.

Shen Huanchi had just finished cultivating when someone from his clan came over and asked him to go to the patriarch.

Shen Huanchi came to Houshan Lingxue, and the patriarch was waiting for him. The old man who helped him test his spiritual roots was the current patriarch, a foundation-building cultivator. It was his hard support that allowed the Shen family to develop steadily.

"Patriarch, look for me." Shen Huanchi bowed respectfully. The old man at this time looked older than a few years ago.

"Huanchi is here. Yes, I have already practiced the fourth level of Qi. Heaven will not die for my Shen family."

"Do you have any problems with your cultivation?" the old man asked patiently.

Shen Huanchi immediately asked some questions, and the old man also answered them. Using his experience as a foundation-building cultivator to answer some questions about the Qi training period, it is more profound and thorough, and some parts are completely clear.

Of course, not all clansmen in the qi training stage have this treatment, and usually some clan elders in the late stage of qi training answer them. It is only Shen Huanchi, who is endowed with family hope, who can listen to the teachings of the foundation-building cultivator.

at the end,

"Huanchi, practice hard, and strive to practice Qi as soon as possible to achieve great consummation. I will find a way for you to establish the foundation pill." After speaking, he handed Shen Huanchi a few bottles of medicinal herbs.

"It stands to reason that according to your qualifications, you don't need to take too many medicine pills, but now it's not good, the family can't wait too long, and I can't support it for that long." The old man said regretfully, with a helpless tone in his tone. .

"Huanchi will definitely live up to the high expectations of the patriarch."

...

In the next few years, Shen Huanchi's cultivation level also increased rapidly, and he went to Shanghai Shangfang to make a living after the late stage of Qi training. Because he knows that the family can't support him too much now, and at the same time, he also has to experience his own character and polish his cultivation over the years.

One day, a message came from the family, and Shen Huanchi hurried to the family.

When he came to the cave house of the patriarch of Houshan, Shen Huanchi saw the old man sitting cross-legged on the mat, and saw Shen Huanchi showing a long-lost smile,

"Okay, I've been practicing Qi for the ninth level, but unfortunately...cough...I can't wait anymore, I can't see your foundation building..." The old man said intermittently.

"Patriarch, you will be fine, UU reading www.uukanshu.com I saw a piece of Huanglong ginseng in Shanghai Shangfang this time, and I borrowed some spirit stones from the clan to buy it..." Shen Huanchi looked at the old man in front of him, said anxiously.

"It's useless, I'm really running out of life essence, why don't I leave some spiritual stones for the family." The old man said with a look of relief.

"I have already arranged for you to build the foundation pill. Next time, Qingyunmen will have one of our pills. Even if I die, Qingyunmen will definitely ask for a spiritual stone. There is no way... I blame me for being useless. …

After I sit, you have to be on guard against the Chen family in Baichi Mountain...and the coastal loose repair...the three elders..." The old man explained the funeral over and over again.

"Go and call some elders."

The five walked into the hole with sad faces.

"I handed the title of the patriarch to Huanchi, I hope you can do your best to help, the Shen family cannot die in our hands.

Shen Huanchi, you made an oath to revive my Shen family. "The old man said solemnly.

"I, Shen Huanchi, swear to keep the inheritance of the family alive and die for the revival of the family!"

"After I sit down, I won't be mourning, don't reveal the news of my meditation, and those who violate the clan's rules will be dealt with. I hope I can hide it for a few more days.

Huanchi, build the foundation immediately after you get the foundation building dan, try to build the foundation in advance before they respond, as long as you build the foundation family, the family will be safe. "The old man explained.

"You all go out and leave me alone."

...

Not long after everyone left, an old and crazy roar came from the cave:

"The ancestors of the Shen family are on top, the unworthy descendant Shen Wenhong is ashamed of his ancestors, and he has failed his brother's trust... revival... revival!"

Everyone outside the cave cried, knowing that the old man who had supported the family for two hundred years had died.
