Chapter 5 "Afraid of Death" Wang Shouzhe

…

Wang Shouzhe said with a thought: "Is there a hidden secret in this?"

"Longzuo County is originally a pioneering county, and there are many directions for opening up wasteland. Ancestor Zhou Xuan naturally had his own plans when he chose this area to develop and establish a family."

"Thinking back to those days, Patriarch Zhou Xuan was just a direct descendant of the Longzuo Wang Clan. The Longzuo Wang Clan was not going well back then. It continued to decline all the way. Even the transition between heaven and man was very difficult, and there was not much left to cultivate the clan members. .”

"Ancestor Zhou Xuan has awakened his bloodline once he was born, and is qualified to enter the heaven-human realm. Therefore, he is not willing to be useless all his life."

"So Patriarch Zhou Xuan went out to seek opportunities. In the outer domain, he discovered a very hidden relic belonging to the Shenwu Dynasty in the medieval period. It was with the help of this ruin that Patriarch Zhou Xuan succeeded. Promoted to the Lingtai realm."

"But when Patriarch Zhou Xuan discovered the ruins, he did not get the greatest opportunity. Therefore, he held the development order and established the Ping'an Wang family in this area. He thought that his descendants would gradually control the ruins, and from them Obtain a steady stream of huge benefits. Currently, the ruins are only about a thousand miles away from our safety."

Following the eloquent talk of Patriarch Longyan, people understood why Patriarch Zhouxuan went south in the first place.

"It turns out there is a secret like this." Wang Shouzhe suddenly realized. Suddenly, his heart moved and his expression changed slightly. "Then my father..."

Back then, the previous head of the family, Wang Dingyue, went to the outside world to seek opportunities and died. Wang Shouzhe always suspected that something was wrong about this matter. After all, the family still had some residual wealth at that time, and if they sold it at a loss, they could still exchange it for the Tianling Pill.

"Alas, when you talk about this matter, it's all my fault." Ancestor Longyan's eyes flashed with bitterness, "Yes, when Dingyue reached the peak of the ninth level of Qi Refining Realm, I discussed this matter with him. After all, opportunities are rare. , and my nephew Qiongyuan and I have both broken into the ruins and gained benefits."

"Unexpectedly, my luck was so bad, and I encountered a fourth-level ferocious beast on the way. Even if I tried my best to protect him at the time, I couldn't save his life." Thinking of this matter, Longyan Ancestor's eyes became dim and guilty, She was obviously very uncomfortable with Wang Dingyue's death.

"Ancestor, what happened in the past is in the past. Not to mention that you were not in good condition at the time, which aggravated your injuries." Wang Shouzhe said softly and comforted, "But Ancestor, what kind of relic is that? Why? How can we benefit from it? And what are the dangers?"

Wang Shouzhe asked several questions in succession, asking out the doubts in his heart.

In his opinion, no matter how good the ancient ruins are, they must be lived to enjoy them.

If it's just for a small heavenly elixir, it's not worth it to venture into the outside world. He would rather farm slowly and use his time to accumulate wealth.

With the current financial resources of the Wang family, buying the Tianling Pill will not seriously damage his vitality.

If he didn't ask clearly, or if he was fully prepared, he would definitely not take risks in the depths of the outside world without being extremely sure.

"That ruins is a trial place open to the outside world for the Shenwu Dynasty. The purpose is to recruit young people with potential for the dynasty. There is no danger in itself. Even if you fail the trial, your life will not be in danger."

"When Patriarch Zhou Xuan was at the peak of the ninth level of the Qi Refining Realm, he passed the first trial and received what is called a consolation prize...a gift of a Tianling Pill in stock."

"Well……"

Wang Shouzhe broke into a cold sweat. What kind of ruins was that? He even called Tian Ling Dan a consolation prize...

No wonder that back then, the late head of the family, Wang Dingyue, wanted to go out to fight in the outside world.

Based on Wang's conditions at that time, if he could earn just one Heavenly Spirit Pill, it would be enough for him to work hard.

"The difficulty of the first level is neither too great nor too small." Ancestor Longyan introduced, "The gatekeeper is a monster puppet at the ninth level of the Qi Refining Realm. As long as you defeat it within the rules. , even if you pass the test. If you practice Xuanwu combat skills very solidly, you can barely pass this test."

"As for the Heavenly Spirit Pill, I heard that the Shenwu Dynasty was extremely powerful. At its peak, its territory was hundreds of thousands of miles away. A mere Heavenly Spirit Pill is really nothing. If it can pass the second level, the reward will be huge."

Ancestor Longyan said again: "The second level is to fight two monsters at the peak of the ninth level of Qi Refining Realm at the same time! Once you pass it, you can get the elixir to improve your bloodline qualifications."

"Elixir to improve bloodline qualifications?" Wang Shouzhe's eyes lit up after this order. This was what he lacked the most now. On the contrary, the Tianling Pill was much easier to obtain.

"Back then, I struggled to get through the second level and obtained the bloodline-improving elixir and the Heavenly Spirit Pill." Ancestor Longyan continued, "It's a pity that my bloodline talent didn't start very high at that time. He looks like a middle-grade D level. After taking that elixir, he has only reached around the middle level A level, and has not awakened his second level bloodline."

"But even so, when I was promoted to the Lingtai realm, my Yuanshui bloodline was transformed into Xuanbing bloodline. And in terms of talent, it is much stronger than ordinary second-level bloodline people."

Follow the words of Longyan Ancestor.

Only then did Wang Shouzhe understand. No wonder Ancestor Longyan was so powerful in combat.

Moreover, after she was promoted to the Lingtai realm, she made great progress all the way, suppressing Ancestor Xuanfu to death.

If it hadn't been for that accident that year, the ancestor of Longyan would probably be in the realm of heaven and humanity now.

And as we all know, Xuanbing bloodline is one of the three bloodlines with different attributes, and its lethality is much stronger than that of pure Yuanshui bloodline. But there are also disadvantages. In terms of self-resilience, it is not as good as Yuanshui bloodline.

Although Patriarch Xuanfu heard this matter from Patriarch Longyan last time, her eyes were still full of emotions. After Patriarch Longyan broke through to the Lingtai realm, he was most prosperous for more than thirty years, leaving her far behind.

So much so that she had some doubts about life at that time. Now that I hear her talking about it, I feel sour in my heart.

"Ancestor, the second level is to defeat two people at the ninth level of the Qi Refining Realm. Could it be that the third level is three?" Wang Shouzhe said with a hint of ridicule.

"That's right, the third level is like this, so I only passed the second level." Ancestor Longyan said rather feebly, "That monster puppet is extremely difficult to deal with. I fought hard to get through both of them. "

Wang Shouzhe was really speechless. The designer of the trial level was really clueless. Could it be possible that there would be a fourth level and only four? I’m hehe~

But as soon as the ancestor said these words, Wang Shouzhe was already moved.

But if you want to defeat two strong men of the same level, it may be really difficult. Let alone three, with his current strength, it is simply impossible!

Hear it here.

Liu Ruolan blinked her eyes and said, "Ancestor Xuanfu, did you sell me to the Wang family just for this secret?"

Ancestor Xuanfu coughed twice and said with a slightly embarrassed look in her eyes: "Ruolan, please don't misunderstand me. I am doing this purely for your sake."

"Your talent is already extremely high. But the more so, the less you can miss this opportunity. Let's not talk about the elixir in the second level, it will definitely have some effect on you. But the key is to win the third level! Listen to that The meaning shown by the ruins is that once you pass the three levels, you can become a disciple of the Shenwu Dynasty and can go to the Shenwu Dynasty to practice."

Wang Shouzhe frowned and said, "Hasn't the Shenwu Dynasty been destroyed for more than 100,000 years?"

Ancestor Xuanfu shook her head and said: "Although the Shenwu Dynasty has been destroyed, its ruins still exist in various places. And the core of the famous Shenwu Dynasty is still a mystery."

"Even the Zifu Academy attaches great importance to the relics of the Shenwu Dynasty, so this opportunity cannot be missed. What's more, the innate Taoist spirit seed I originally obtained was from a certain relic of the Shenwu Dynasty. If we can find the core place..."

So that’s it, Ancestor Xuanfu has great ambitions.

Wang Shouzhe nodded secretly, but thought about it: "There is another question. Why didn't the sixth grandfather Wang Xiaohan go to the ruins to test?"

Ancestor Longyan explained: "Not everyone can participate in this divine martial trial. First, you have to be under the Lingtai realm, and your age cannot be more than forty years old. Xiaohan back then has already missed the age limit. And your father Wang Dingyue , barely qualified.”

Well, it seems that the Shenwu Dynasty has quite high requirements. Those who are slightly worse will not even be given a chance to try.

"Can I participate in the trial if I haven't reached the peak of the ninth level?"

"It should be possible. The problem is that before reaching the ninth level peak, it is difficult to defeat the demon puppets at the ninth level peak, and it will be in vain."

"Then after you win two levels, can you go again in a few years?"

"This... I heard from the trial weapon spirit that you have to start over again next time, and the rewards will not be repeated."

As Wang Shouzhe asked questions one after another, the worldview of Longyan ancestor was constantly being refreshed.

Ancestor Xuanfu on the side began to grow impatient: "Well, Shouzhe. Have you finished asking your questions? Get ready. Let's set off in the next two days."

"Wait! Ancestor Xuanfu, are you going like this?" Wang Shouzhe was a little confused, "This seems to be too urgent."

"Shouzhe, are you not ready yet?" Ancestor Xuanfu said with confusion.

Just kidding, what do you mean by not ready?

I haven't even started preparing yet, have I?

Wang Shouzhe broke out in a cold sweat. This Ancestor Xuanfu was a little hasty, and then he questioned: "Ancestor Xuanfu's plan, shouldn't it be just the four of us?"

"No, there is Liu Yuanhui." Ancestor Xuanfu said calmly, "Don't worry, even if we encounter a fourth-level ferocious beast, Cousin Longyan and I are enough."

This tone seems a bit loud.

Wang Shouzhe touched his chin and muttered: "The fourth-order ferocious beasts are nothing, but what if we encounter two fourth-order ferocious beasts? What if we encounter the fifth-order ferocious beasts? Does Ancestor Xuanfu have any planned strategy for this?"

Ancestor Xuanfu's eyelids twitched and she said angrily: "How can there be so many fifth-level ferocious beasts in this world? According to Cousin Longyan, we can't go more than a thousand miles away."

"The Outer Territory is more than a thousand miles deep, so we must be fully prepared." Wang Shouzhe said.

"What do you mean by complete preparations...?" Ancestor Xuanfu suddenly had a bad premonition.

"At least we encountered a fifth-level ferocious beast. We dare not kill it. At least we can frighten it."

"Besides, my bloodline talent is not enough. I barely managed to win the second level, but I will definitely not be able to win the third level."

"Once you break through to the Lingtai realm, you will no longer be able to participate. Life is only an opportunity. So I plan to collect some heavenly materials and earthly treasures that can improve my bloodline, as well as some things that can scare the fifth-level ferocious beasts."

"Then how long do you have to prepare?" Ancestor Xuanfu's eyes twitched and she suppressed the urge to hit someone.

"There's no rush anyway, just take your time and prepare. If I'm not completely sure, I won't take the risk. By the way, madam, you're not allowed to go either."

"You have to have a life to fight for opportunities. Most of the treasures of heaven and earth can be bought if you have money. If it doesn't work, let's farm slowly and accumulate wealth slowly. Then buy, buy, buy!"

Liu Ruolan nodded obediently and said, "Yes, husband, I listen to you."

Ancestor Xuanfu was so stunned that she looked at Ancestor Longyan blankly and said: "This kid of yours is so greedy for life and afraid of death? We work so hard to seek opportunities for the younger generation. Those geniuses, Who wouldn’t fight to the death for opportunities?”

Ancestor Longyan was also a little embarrassed. His great-great-nephew did not have the courage to move forward like a genius.

"Well...my Shouzhe, he is not greedy for life and afraid of death, but he is willing to be lenient when facing enemies. He likes to plan for the worst in everything."

"However, I think Shouzhe is right. I think it was because I didn't think enough that I killed Dingyue. Shouzhe, this matter is up to you. When you are ready, we can set off again."

"Boy, if you don't want to go, that's fine." Ancestor Xuanfu was very angry, "I'll go alone with Ruolan and Yuanhui."

"Ancestor, if your husband says you can't go, I definitely can't go. I'm Wang's wife..." Unexpectedly, Liu Ruolan shook her head and said, "Besides, my husband is right, it's always better to be more prepared. Yes, we also have to think about the children.”

"Madam, you are so good."

"My husband is such a good person. He always thinks about his family in everything."

"Being able to marry a wife is the greatest blessing in my life."

"Being able to marry your husband is the greatest blessing in my life, Liu Ruolan."

While the couple sang and made peace, they didn't forget to spread some dog food.

The two ancestors, both of whom have been single for more than a hundred years, looked away when they heard this.

This is too disgusting...

Then, Ancestor Xuanfu said to Wang Shouzhe helplessly: "Okay, go ahead and prepare. But as soon as possible..."

"Ancestor, please give me the map first, and I can plan the route as soon as possible." Wang Shouzhe got to the point. With the Outland dungeon being such a risky thing, he would not let others take control of the rhythm.

Ancestor Longyan followed his words and handed an old map to Wang Shouzhe.

Then Wang Shouzhe began to prepare.

A month later, Ancestor Xuanfu came to him and asked him, are you ready?

Wang Shouzhe said calmly, not ready.

The second month was still not ready.

In the third month, when Patriarch Xuanfu went to find him again, she was shocked to find that Wang Shouzhe had already gone out shopping.

"Old ancestor, my husband said that he found a way through his friends to buy something that can kill fifth-level ferocious beasts. In addition, the spiritual elixir of blood evolution, the Marrow Cleansing Pill, has also been found." Liu Ruolan hugged the second child. The baby said calmly, "Also, my husband said that if I don't have a storage ring, I won't be able to bring my changes of clothes, daily necessities, and my favorite snacks. He said that he would buy me a storage ring by the way." use."

Each sentence shocked Ancestor Xuan Fu, and each sentence made her eyes go straight... She also bought a storage ring by the way!

I can’t even bear to buy a storage ring…

Do you need to bring daily necessities with you when you go out? Is this for an outing?

How could this kid Wang Shouzhe be so inhumane?

For a moment, Ancestor Xuanfu felt sour.

Why did the core disciple of her dignified academy suddenly become a pauper?
