Volume 6: The Famous Immortal Road of the Nine Mountains Chapter 901: Unraveling the Mystery!
Meng Hao remained silent, cupping his fists and bowing deeply to the Great Elder in front of him. Under the First Elder's kind smile, Meng Hao left the hall and walked outside.
When the Great Elder was the only one left in the entire hall, the kindness on his face gradually faded away and turned into calm. Only in the depths of his eyes, there was a flash of coldness that no outsider could see.
When he turned around, he walked towards the main hall.
"Thank you." A cold voice suddenly echoed in the hall, and the great elder stopped.
"I'm not helping you, but following the clan rules, everything...for the sake of the family!"
Meng Hao walked in the ancestral house and turned into a rainbow, heading straight for his cave. Not long after, he returned to the cave. As soon as he stepped into the courtyard, he saw Fang Xi with his eyes open, facing Pi Jiang and Parrot. hold.
Meng Hao had something on his mind, so he walked into the attic. When he sat cross-legged there, his eyes flashed. He took out the jade box containing the Nirvana Fruit from the storage bag and looked at it intently.
"Unexpectedly... the Great Elder actually returned this thing to me..."
"What he said in the hall does not sound false, but my feeling towards him is that this person... is not what he seems."
It was not that Meng Hao was suspicious, but that his journey had not been smooth after he entered cultivation. If he had not been vigilant at all times, he would have fallen countless times.
Now in this Fang family, Meng Hao knows that there are dangers around him, and he is walking in a balance. A little carelessness may lead to life or death.
"There must be something wrong with this Nirvana Fruit!" Meng Hao's eyes flashed. He still insisted on his judgment of the Great Elder and did not let the other party's words change his mind. Put the jade box in front of you. Open slowly.
A faint coercion emanated from the jade box. Meng Hao looked at the two shriveled fruits that were as big as a baby's fist inside and remained silent.
The blood flow in the body accelerated at this moment, and the connection between the blood vessels caused Meng Hao's judgment to slowly waver.
"These are indeed Nirvana fruits, and they can trigger my bloodline induction. They...should have bloomed from me back then."
"Could it be that I'm really too worried?" Meng Hao sighed softly. As he pondered, he gently picked up a Nirvana Fruit and placed it in front of him. When his hand touched the Nirvana Fruit, the blood in his body began to flow. The feeling is even stronger, as if longing to merge with this nirvana fruit.
"You need enough spiritual fluid,
Only then can the Nirvana Fruit be restored, and then it can be fused..." Meng Hao sighed softly. Just as he was about to put the Nirvana Fruit back into the jade box, suddenly. Meng Hao's hand paused, and his eyes flashed at that moment. , suddenly revealed a strong light.
"Something's wrong, this Nirvana Fruit's breath of time... isn't hundreds of years old!!" His breathing was slightly rapid, and he slowly raised his hand, put it in front of him, and stared at it. After a while, Meng Hao's expression gradually became gloomy. Come down.
Meng Hao was a cultivator of the years and had practiced the magical power of the years. He had an incomparable sensitivity to the true existence time of an object. Even though the Nirvana Fruit's breath was extremely weak, it was stored in a jade box and was very well preserved, making it The breath of time was almost imperceptible, but... Meng Hao still saw the clues.
Even the Great Elder might not have expected this.
"I want to see how long these two Nirvana Fruits have been around!" Meng Hao immediately made a seal with his left hand, and the years of magic spells dispersed in a blink of an eye. After imprinting them one by one, Meng Hao's eyes showed a light of deduction. With his The method of time seems to peel off the mysterious veil on the Nirvana fruit layer by layer.
One hundred years, two hundred years, three hundred years...
Until an hour later, Meng Hao was breathing rapidly.
"It's been ten thousand years!!" He was now certain that these Nirvana Fruits were not his at all. At this moment, a cold light shone in his eyes. After taking a deep breath, Meng Hao continued to use the age magic to examine the Nirvana Fruits. the exact time of its existence.
Fifteen thousand years, twenty thousand years, twenty-five thousand years...
If Meng Hao hadn't become an 80% true immortal at this moment, and the immortal veins in his body had also solidified 80%, he would certainly not be able to support him to complete so many years of spells. When the sun sets over the western mountains and the bright moon hangs high, Meng Hao's body trembles violently, and he Almost all of his cultivation was consumed, and finally... he roughly judged the true age of this Nirvana Fruit.
"More than...a hundred thousand years!!"
Meng Hao's breathing was rapid and his expression showed disbelief. He looked at another Nirvana Fruit. In terms of feeling, the two Nirvana Fruits were exactly the same!
"It's more than a hundred thousand years!"
"This is not my Nirvana Fruit. Whose Nirvana Fruit is this!" Meng Hao's eyes sparkled. At this moment, he was extremely firm in his judgment. The Great Elder must not be kind to him.
"The problem is not with the spiritual liquid, nor with his words, but with... what seemed to me to be the least likely to cause problems before... the Nirvana Fruit!" Meng Hao's face immediately darkened. .
"Now that I think about it, in his previous words, he seemed to be concerned several times and said that he asked me to fuse the Nirvana Fruit as soon as possible. This sentence... There is a big problem!" Meng Hao's eyes flashed with murderous intent. He could almost conclude now that if If you fuse these two nirvana fruits, you will definitely be in a life and death crisis.
Meng Hao snorted coldly, put the Nirvana Fruit into the jade box, immediately put it away, walked out of the attic, and stopped the fight between Fang Xi, Pi Jiang and Parrot.
"Fang Xi, have you heard of anyone else in the family who has given birth to the Nirvana Fruit?"
Fang Xi, whose face was full of exhaustion but had a glint of persistence and even excitement in his eyes, was stunned for a moment when he heard Meng Hao's inquiry.
"No, there is only the Nirvana Flower, but that is useless. Only you can produce the Nirvana Fruit... Hey, I remember that there seems to be a rumor that the first generation of our Fang family also had the Nirvana Fruit. What's wrong?" Fang Xi asked in surprise.
Meng Hao's eyes flashed, and he smiled to avoid the topic. He felt something was wrong again.
"The Nirvana Fruit of the first generation of ancestors must be a treasure. How could it be given to me? But in terms of time, it seems that this Nirvana Fruit is extremely old, more than 100,000 years old..."
With doubts, Meng Hao's expression did not reveal any clues. From the morning of the next day, he wandered around the ancestral home of the Fang family, met many clansmen, and went to many attics. He seriously did what a long-lost clansman should do after returning home, such as... eager to learn about the history of the family.
It seemed normal, without any clues. After six or seven days, Meng Hao became very interested in the Zongshi Pavilion.
There, the history of many families is recorded. No one is surprised that Meng Hao often appears here. There are a large number of jade slips recording past events, but there are few records of the first generation of ancestors, often with a few words and simple descriptions.
It was not until half a month later that the Great Elder kindly summoned him and reminded him to refine the spiritual liquid as soon as possible to fuse the Nirvana Fruit. Meng Hao finally sorted out a piece of information in his mind from some scattered records.
"The sixth generation ancestor, with a high level of cultivation, died suddenly in seclusion in one day!"
"The tenth generation ancestor also died suddenly in seclusion!"
"There are also the thirteenth and sixteenth generations of ancestors, almost all of whom died suddenly in seclusion!"
"In addition to these, over the past 100,000 years, there have been some Tianjiao clansmen in the family who died inexplicably in seclusion." Meng Hao sat cross-legged in the attic of his cave. When he closed his eyes, his mind emerged with the inconspicuous clues he had noticed from the large number of jade slips and history during this period.
These were originally inconspicuous, but extremely complicated. Few people could connect them together. However, after Meng Hao frantically sorted them out in this crisis, he felt a strong murderous intent in them.
"It was not until 30,000 years ago that such sudden deaths were greatly reduced. Now, they rarely appear." When Meng Hao's eyes slowly opened and closed, a brilliant light flashed in them.
"Then, I went to look for these ancestors who died suddenly, and their life records... I found a common point. These people either went to the Ancestral Pagoda or made contributions and received rewards from the Ancestral Pagoda."
"This is a suspicious point, but in the past 100,000 years, many clansmen have received rewards from the Ancestral Pagoda, but only these people died suddenly. It's a doubt, but it's barely enough."
"Until..." Meng Hao patted the storage bag and took out the jade box. His eyes showed a strong cold light.
"Until 30,000 years ago, the last member of the clan died suddenly. I found a piece of information in the life record of one of his descendants!
Before this person died suddenly, he had a conversation with his son, saying that he wanted to fuse the ancestor's things. No one succeeded in fusing this thing, and all died. There is a last word from the ancestor, if someone can fuse it, the mystery of the Fang family's bloodline can be solved!"
Meng Hao took a deep breath and closed his eyes. When he opened his eyes again after a moment, his eyes were calm, without any ups and downs, and he looked down at the jade box in his hand.
"If I'm not wrong, then in the history of the Fang family, those who died suddenly, they may not be all of them, but most of them, the reason for their sudden death is these two Nirvana fruits!
These two Nirvana fruits are... the things of the ancestors!!" Meng Hao sneered.
"The elder asked me to merge as soon as possible, which meant I died as soon as possible!"
"The elder gave me the Nirvana Fruit in front of many clansmen, letting everyone know about this and no longer being able to say anything. He also vowed to favor me, which was even more frank.
And if I died in the process of merging with the Nirvana Fruit, since many people have died in the process of merging since ancient times, even if they died suddenly after merging with the Nirvana Fruit of their ancestors, he would immediately attribute my death to the Nirvana Fruit as long as he guided me with words.
In this way, it would be perfect, and my death would be in vain. Maybe he would even hold a grand funeral for me..." The smile on Meng Hao's face became colder and colder.
