The Rise of the Shen Family

Chapter 746: Sneak Attack

When the flames on Liangtai Mountain spread to the sky, Shen Ruizhi and other six people who had been waiting outside immediately attacked the Liang family's clan protection formation with all their strength, and a huge roar echoed in the sky.

There was a sudden chaos inside the gate of the Liang family. Some members of the Liang family were desperately trying to put out the fire, while others were barely maintaining the operation of the formation together with the four foundation-building monks of the Liang family, resisting the fire. The attack from Shen Ruizhi and others outside.

However, when everyone in the Liang family was preoccupied with themselves, there was a figure flying towards the forbidden area behind the Liang family.

Now all the monks of the Liang family have been attracted to the front, and the defensive forces in the forbidden area of ​​the back mountain are basically useless, so they can't stop Shen Ruiling at all.

Facing the seemingly solid protective restrictions and many formations, he was still able to move unimpeded with the "stealing formation technique" in his hand.

Soon Shen Ruiling came to a valley protected by layers of formations, and his deep eyes couldn't help looking at the large protective formation made up of lush vines in front of him.

This large formation is the last barrier used by the Liang family to protect the fourth-order spiritual peach tree. It is connected to the clan protection formation, but it is independent, forming a brand new formation.

The valley guarded by the formation is the forbidden area of ​​the Liang family, and only the current Patriarch is eligible to enter it, so naturally it is only possible to be in the hands of the contemporary Patriarch through the means of the formation.

Therefore, the wooden sign in Shen Ruiling's hand did not have the authority to pass the guardian formation, which made it impossible for him to use the 'stealing formation technique' to pass the formation as easily as before.

However, since Shen Ruiling has already come here, there is naturally a way to pass through this formation, but it will take a little more effort.

Although this guardian formation was independent, it was still connected to the Liang family's clan protection formation, which was its weakness.

I saw that Shen Ruiling took out the formation equipment from the storage bag that he carried with him, and then used the wooden sign to fiddle with the formation light curtain in front of him.

With the slow operation of the formation he arranged, countless formation patterns merged into the protection formation, which seemed to be curbing the operation of the protection formation.

After a long time, Shen Ruiling, who had his eyes closed, opened them suddenly. There was light in his pupils, and he immediately inserted several array flags in his hand into the array light curtain in front of him.

These formation flags were like wedges nailed into the protective formation one by one, and they managed to stop the movement of that small formation.

Although he failed to open a passage at this time, he found the entrance.

The next moment, a black long sword appeared in Shen Ruiling's hand, and endless and terrifying sword intent emerged from the sword body.

With his right hand waving,

Countless sharp sword qi continuously attacked that weak spot like dense raindrops.

The current Liang family has become a mess, and he is not afraid of being discovered by the Liang family. Even if the other party finds out, what can they do with him?

Just like that, in front of Jian Yu, who contained endless Gengjin Qi, that small weak spot on the light curtain only lasted for a moment, and the vine-like light curtains shattered one after another.

After seeing that the gap had been opened, Shen Ruiling directly entered it without any hesitation, and what caught his eyes was a towering tree like a huge monster.

The huge canopy of this tree covers the sky and the sun, and the entire valley is covered with its messy root system, some of which have even exposed the soil, and are constantly climbing up the mountain wall.

The trunk is covered with bark like ancient scales, constantly exuding an extremely ancient breath of time and a touch of coercion.

When Shen Ruiling entered this valley that was regarded as a forbidden area by the Liang family, he was greeted by bursts of strong wood attribute spiritual power with majestic vitality.

He couldn't help looking at the crown of the tree that covered the sky and the sun, and found that among the dense branches and leaves, there were several red and attractive spirit peaches, each of which exuded a faint fragrance and fragrance. Majestic spiritual power.

Looking at the five ripe spirit peaches hanging on the treetops, the corners of Shen Ruiling's mouth turned up slightly, and the joy in his eyes could not be concealed.

The spiritual peach tree cultivated by the Liang family has reached the fourth-level level, and the spiritual peaches it produces are already equivalent to the third-level top-grade spirit treasures.

He learned from Liang Xingchao's memory that the third-grade top-grade spirit peaches produced by this spirit peach tree can not only help the foundation-building monks improve their cultivation without any side effects, but also have the magical effect of prolonging the life of the monks.

It is precisely because of this low-rank spirit peach tree of the fourth rank that the Liang family has been able to survive for thousands of years and maintain close ties with the Wuji sect.

Whenever this fourth-tier low-grade spirit peach tree bears spirit peaches, the Liang family will only keep one or two, and the rest will be sent to the Wuji Sect in exchange for the cultivation resources needed for foundation building pills, etc. .

This spirit peach tree, which has been cultivated by the Liang family for thousands of years, has reached the fourth-rank low-grade, so its maturity cycle is also very long, and it often takes a Jiazi to harvest a few spirit peaches.

However, this year happened to be the year when the spirit peaches matured. The Liang family originally planned to pick all of them at the end of the year, leaving two in the family, and sending all the remaining spirit peaches to the Wuji Sect.

When Shen Ruiling got the news that the spirit peaches had matured from Liang Xingchao's memory, he had already set his sights on these third-rank top-grade spirit peaches, so he rushed over in a hurry.

After a short period of joy, Shen Ruiling flew up directly, ready to reach out to pick the ripe third-order spirit peach.

However, at this moment, a bright aura suddenly shot out from among the dense branches and leaves, and directly attacked Shen Ruiling who had already risen into the sky.

The timing and angle of this emerald green aura were well thought out, and the power contained in it was definitely not to be underestimated, it was absolutely intended to put Shen Ruiling to death.

On this side, Shen Ruiling couldn't help but be taken aback by this sudden attack, and quickly pulled away to dodge, and a pair of huge wings appeared directly behind him.

When [Feng Lei Chi] appeared, his figure disappeared in the original place in an instant, avoiding the lightning-fast attack without any danger.

The next moment, Shen Ruiling's figure directly appeared on the other side of the huge tree canopy, and the black long sword in his hand immediately swung a sharp sword aura towards a certain place in the tree canopy.

The sword energy swung out was very targeted, passing through the dense branches and leaves without damaging the redundant tree trunks, and landed on the body of the target he had locked on impartially.

At this time, Shen Ruiling's face had already darkened, and he stared at the huge tree crown with cold eyes, showing a murderous aura in his whole body.

Apparently, he didn't expect that there was a Liang family's Foundation Establishment Dzogchen monk hiding here, and the other party actually hid his spiritual perception, which almost made him suffer a big loss.

"Who are you, and why did you trespass on my Liang family's forbidden area and steal my Liang family's sacred fruit!"

Accompanied by a weak sound, a thick trunk like a vine rose slowly from the dense canopy.

I saw that at the top of the tree trunk, there was an old man with white beard and hair. What surprised people was that part of the old man's body had already integrated with the tree trunk.

On this side, Shen Ruiling looked coldly at the strange old man in front of him, and he sensed the extremely strong withered aura from the other person.

Obviously the other party's lifespan was running out, but he did not know what kind of weird secret technique was used to make his body and the branches of the fourth-order spirit peach tree merge into one.

At this time, the old man's mouth kept gushing bright red blood. It seemed that he was injured by Shen Ruiling's sword energy just now, but now he was just supporting his body.

Shen Ruiling didn't say too much, and once again swung his sword at the old man, countless sharp sword auras carried terrifying power.

On the other side, although the old man seemed to be running out of oil lamps, he still used his magical powers to stop Shen Ruiling's sword energy again.

In an instant, cracks opened on the ground of the valley, and vines as thick as buckets quickly sprang out from the ground.

These vines that suddenly sprang out from the ground were like sharp spears, piercing towards the oncoming sword energy without hesitation.

However, even if the vines that sprang out were strong, it was obviously impossible to resist the fierce sword energy, and they were chopped down to the ground one after another.

The next moment, the black long sword in Shen Ruiling's hand was like a black lightning bolt, piercing through the sky full of sword energy and broken vine branches, directly piercing through the old man's body.

The old man was already at the end of his lifespan, and he was injured by Shen Ruiling's sword energy before, so he had already reached the point where the oil lamp was exhausted.

Now it was Shen Ruiling's black long sword that pierced through his body directly, taking away the little vitality left, and naturally fell completely.

However, on this side, Shen Ruiling looked thoughtfully at the vines that had been cut off by the sword energy all over the ground, and he felt an inexplicable familiarity from the magical power displayed by the other party.

That seems to be the supernatural power spell recorded in the family's foundation-building exercise "Dead Wood Rejuvenation Kung Fu"!

Shen Ruiling, who suddenly reacted, hurriedly came to the side of the old man's corpse, and while the spirit of the other party had not completely dissipated, he directly used the [Soul Search Art].

As the Dzogchen monk of the Liang family's Foundation Establishment, the old man is naturally very clear about the secrets of the Liang family, so Shen Ruiling can naturally get a lot of information from the other party's spirit.

After half a cup of tea, Shen Ruiling slowly opened his closed eyes, and a look of solemnity and joy appeared on his calm face.

It turned out that this old man was the only old antique left in the previous generation of the Liang family. Because of his approaching birthday, he retired to the forbidden area of ​​the Liang family. Even Liang Xingchao and other new generation members of the family did not know about it.

That's why Shen Ruiling didn't get any information about this person in Liang Xingchao's memory, so he didn't know that there was a foundation-building Dzogchen monk in the Liang family's forbidden area.

And the reason why the old man was able to merge with the fourth-order spirit peach tree here is because he used a secret technique, which can properly prolong the monk's lifespan and allow the dying person to live for a while longer. time.

What made Shen Ruiling happy was that the grafting secret technique performed by the old man was recorded in his kung fu, and the kung fu he practiced was a wood attribute kung fu that could be cultivated to the state of foundation building and Dzogchen Law.

Although the name of this exercise book is not the same as "Withered Wood Rejuvenation Technique", the name also implies the meaning of withered wood rejuvenation, and the two should come from the same exercise book.

In this way, the family can complete the follow-up exercises of "The Art of Rejuvenation of Dead Wood". Most importantly, the fourth brother Shen Ruizhi can continue to practice.

At the same time, Shen Ruiling also learned the location of the Liang family's secret vault from the spirit of the old man. This secret vault contains precious treasures and secret techniques accumulated by the Liang family for thousands of years.

In addition to the information that made him feel happy, Shen Ruiling finally knew what the ancestor of the Liang family left for the descendants.

It turned out to be a treasure talisman that reached the fourth-order low-grade!

When Shen Ruiling knew that the background of the Liang family was a treasure talisman of the fourth rank, her heart trembled, and she couldn't help but start to worry.

If that Dzogchen monk from the Liang family really used that fourth-rank low-grade treasure talisman, Shen Ruizhi and the other six would be in danger.

After all, even Du Mingjun, who had reached the late stage of Foundation Establishment, couldn't accept this fourth-order treasure talisman!

Thinking of this, Shen Ruiling couldn't care less about the fourth-order spirit tree, the secret storehouse of the Liang family, and the Buddhist scripture pavilion. He quickly picked off the five ripe third-order spirit peaches, and then headed towards the mountain gate of the Liang family. and go.

. . . . . .

On the other side, when Shen Ruiling killed the old man of the Liang family who had fused himself into the fourth-order spiritual peach tree, Du Mingjun and the other six just happened to break through the Liang family's clan protection formation.

"You thieves, come and fight this old man to the death!"

Looking at Shen Ruizhi and the other six people who rushed into the gate of their own house, the old man who established the foundation of the Liang family roared angrily.

After all, his figure went directly towards Shen Ruizhi and the others, followed by the other three foundation-building monks of the Liang family.

Because the attack by Shen Ruizhi and others was too sudden, the clan protection formation only lasted for a moment, leaving no time for them to react and arrange for the clansmen to evacuate from the mountain gate during the Qi training period.

So right now they can only fight to the death, trying to entangle Shen Ruizhi and the other six people as much as possible, so that the rest of the Qi training period clansmen have a chance to escape.

As long as these members of the Qi training period can escape and find the members of the Foundation Establishment period in the Tuyang Valley of the Liang family or the members of the Wuji sect, then their Liang family's inheritance will not be cut off.

On this side, looking at the four Liang Family Foundation Establishment monks who wanted to fight with them, Du Mingjun and others also directly faced their respective opponents according to the division of labor arranged in advance.

Du Mingjun and Shen Ruizhi teamed up to confront the Dzogchen Foundation Establishment cultivator, while the remaining four confronted the other three Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Liang family.

Du Mingjun was originally a leader among the monks in the late stage of Foundation Establishment, and with Shen Ruizhi's assistance, he was enough to compete with the Dzogchen Foundation Establishment monk.

But apart from the three of them, the monks from Linhai County obviously occupied the top, and the two early foundation-building monks of the Liang family were constantly in danger in the hands of the two Shen family guests.

As for the mid-foundation cultivator of the Liang family, under the joint efforts of Shen Yongxuan and Wei Chenghe, he only had the ability to escape for his life.

Suddenly, with the sound of screams, a monk of the Liang family's early foundation establishment fell, and his body fell slowly from the air.

After this Shen family guest eliminated his opponent, he immediately went to help another guest, and the two of them joined forces and soon seriously injured the monk of the Liang family.

"Today, the old man will definitely want you to be buried with everyone in my Liang family!"

Seeing his clansmen fall one after another, and the balance of war is getting closer to each other, the Liang Family Foundation Establishment Dzogchen monk roared heart-piercingly.

At this time, the Taoist robe on his body was messy, and there were various wounds on his body, and even the gray beard was stained with bright red blood.

As soon as he finished speaking, a talisman exuding strong fluctuations in spiritual power appeared in his hand, and the terrifying aura emanating from it made Du Mingjun and Shen Ruizhi feel terrified.

This is a powerful fourth-order talisman!

However, at this moment, a figure suddenly appeared behind the old man who had lost his mind, and then a white bead hit the back of his head with lightning speed.

"Boom."

In a blink of an eye, the old man's head was crushed by the sudden white bead, and he fell slowly to the ground.
