Chapter 66: Ants
The platform is thousands of miles in radius and the temple is hundreds of feet high. When mortals come here, they are just like ants.
Chen Jiu really wanted to go outside and take a look around to see the entire picture of this kingdom of God. However, Luo Menghong stood there looking up at the statue in a daze, with no intention of taking him out.
What on earth is this father-in-law thinking?
After an unknown amount of time, Luo Menghong suddenly murmured, "Do you want to cultivate to become a god?"
Who doesn’t want this?
Chen Jiu also murmured: "I also want to cultivate to become a god, but becoming a god is too difficult."
Luo Menghong murmured again: "Cultivating immortals, cultivating immortals, only when you become an immortal can you be considered to have truly begun cultivating immortals. Mortals all think that we immortals are omnipotent gods, but in fact, we are not at all. In front of the real gods, we are not much different from mortals.
You have seen this kingdom of God. You may not be able to imagine how powerful the real gods are. Mortals are just like ants in front of gods. Even if they cultivate to become immortals, they are just bigger ants. "
That’s true.
Chen Jiu couldn't help but sigh: "We are really like ants in front of the real God."
Luo Menghong suddenly stared at him and said coldly: "Boy, you bewitched Ahri just so that I can protect you?"
Damn, such a strong momentum!
At this time, Luo Menghong was no longer the kind-hearted man he appeared in front of his wife, daughter and fellow believers. His strength at the peak of the Earthly Immortal realm actually gave people a feeling of divine might as well as prison.
I am no longer a mountain hunter. Now I have already broken through the realm of demon fairy. Why do I still have this feeling?
Could it be that this father-in-law is really just one step away from becoming a god?
Chen Jiu couldn't help but be secretly shocked. He said carefully: "Uncle, I am sincere to Ali."
Luo Menghong was also secretly surprised. His aura as a peak earthly immortal was not something that ordinary people could withstand. Those ordinary earthly immortals in the imperial court would be terrified when they were suppressed by his aura.
The reason why he suddenly burst out with the strength of the peak Earth Immortal was actually to test Chen Jiu's strength. Chen Jiu actually remained calm, which he really didn't expect.
This kid's strength is actually even stronger than his beloved daughter described. He originally thought that his beloved daughter exaggerated the kid's strength in order to deceive him.
However, strength alone is not enough.
Luo Menghong suddenly said seriously: "Who knows if you are sincere?"
This expression is much better than before. Does this mean there's hope?
Chen Jiu quickly followed suit and said, "Uncle, what should I do for you to believe me?"
Luo Menghong still looked serious and said: "I am just one step away from becoming a god. I heard that the technique you practice is quite extraordinary."
Chen Jiu's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.
Could it be that his father-in-law knew the secret of his divine skills?
That shouldn't be the case. He didn't tell Luo Li about this, and Luo Li didn't even tell her father that he was carrying an ancient divine weapon on his back. Even if Luo Li knew about the divine-level martial arts, she wouldn't tell anyone.
As for the Wang family of Langya and the Beiyinsi, it is even more impossible for them to reveal this secret to the leader of the Qinglian Sect.
What is going on?
Chen Jiu said more carefully: "Uncle, how can the martial arts I practice be compared with the martial arts you practice?"
Luo Menghong suddenly frowned again and said coldly: "Didn't you tell Ali that the technique you practiced could break through the realm of demon god? Did you lie to Ali?"
Oh, so you are talking about "Tiger Demon Fist".
This little thing is not mine anyway.
Chen Jiu pretended to be humble and said, "Uncle, I am not lying to Ali about this, but the so-called demon fairy realm and demon god realm are not real gods. This is why I named myself Chen Banxian."
I don't care what you mean.
Luo Menghong said seriously again: "I am also practicing a semi-god-level technique, so I can learn from it."
Do you want to see it so much?
Chen Jiu couldn't help but sighed when he heard this, "It's a pity that I didn't bring the secret manual of "Tiger Demon Fist" with me. How about I bring it to you next time?"
Boy, are you kidding me?
Luo Menghong put on a serious face again and said coldly: "I am the only one who knows how to enter and exit this kingdom of God. Do you want to stay here for a few days to think about it?"
Oops, this father-in-law is playing tricks on me.
Chen Jiu's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.
He had indeed not thought about this issue before coming in. He only wanted to enter the kingdom of God to take a look.
Now I’ve been fooled and taken advantage of.
He could only helplessly say: "Uncle, I really didn't bring it, I didn't lie to you."
Luo Menghong waved his hand, and a small table suddenly appeared on the originally smooth stone floor, with the four treasures of the study on it.
He said rather angrily, "If you didn't bring it, just copy it for me. You should remember the techniques you practiced, right?"
Chen Jiu finally understood. The reason why his father-in-law had inexplicably talked to him about ants and gods was because he wanted to see the martial arts he was practicing.
Alas, this father-in-law wants to become a god so much that he is a little crazy.
He could only sit down helplessly, picking up the pen and saying, "Uncle, this "Tiger Demon Divine Fist" requires the visualization of the tiger god's true body in the secret book, and I can't draw that."
Seeing that he had already picked up the pen, Luo Menghong relaxed his expression and said seriously, "No need for that. Just copy down the technique."
Okay, this one is easy.
Chen Jiu picked up the pen and started writing.
He was also a little anxious because he was eager to go back. If he was really locked up here for a few days by his father-in-law, who knows what would happen in Jiuling Mountain and the Yin-Yang Realm.
He indeed remembered the "Tiger Demon Fist" technique very clearly. After all, he had been practicing it all the time. Moreover, he had also practiced his hand speed specifically, so he could write at an alarming speed, and the hand holding the pen turned into a phantom.
After a while, he had copied down the "Tiger Demon Divine Fist" technique.
When Luo Menghong saw Chen Jiu copying so quickly, he thought that this kid was just trying to get by with him.
However, when he picked up the copied technique and took a look at it, a hint of surprise appeared on his face.
This technique is indeed correct, and the "Tiger Demon Divine Fist" happens to be a technique that utilizes Qi and blood, and has many complementary aspects with the "Essence, Blood and Vitality Collection".
He read it carefully, then nodded with satisfaction and said, "Well, not bad, not bad. The technique you practiced is really good."
Okay, I can go now.
Chen Jiu didn't want to wander around in the kingdom of God at this moment, he just wanted to get out quickly.
Luo Menghong said seriously, "Are you really sincere to Ali?"
Chen Jiu nodded without hesitation and said, "Yes, uncle, Ali knows this best."
Luo Menghong still said seriously: "Then can you join the Qinglian Sect for Ahri?"
I've thought about this a long time ago.
Chen Jiu nodded without hesitation and said, "No problem."
Luo Menghong said seriously, "Joining the Qinglian Sect is not just a matter of words. The initiation ceremony can be simple, but you must sincerely work for the Qinglian Sect."
Okay, now what you say is what it is.
Chen Jiu also pretended to be serious and said, "Uncle, what should I do?"
Luo Menghong said solemnly: "I heard from Ali that you can also refine elixirs. How about this, you hand in a bottle of Essence Pill every month, and I will exempt you from other things."
You think the materials for refining Essence Pills can be found everywhere?
Only then did Chen Jiu remember that he had originally wanted to give his father-in-law a bottle of Essence Pill as a gift.
Now it’s good, no need to give it as a gift, I just want one bottle every month!
Chen Jiu said with some difficulty: "Uncle, refining the Essence Pill requires a lot of immortal herbs and spiritual medicines. Now the entire New Domain is almost occupied by wealthy families. I am afraid I can't find so many immortal herbs and spiritual medicines."
This is easy.
Luo Menghong said without hesitation: "It just so happens that Ali, Yong'er and Meng'er have all achieved the realm of earthly immortals, and we can also go to the new domain to grab territory.
How about this, I'll give you a guardian position, you follow Ahri and the others to the new domain, find a way to grab more territory, and if there are any magical herbs and medicines needed to refine the Essence Pill, you can just let them go and collect them."
My God, is it so simple and crude? Just get started!
Father-in-law, I want you to save my life, why do you let Ali and I go and fight with others for territory?
Chen Jiu carefully reminded: "Uncle, there are too many earthly immortals in the aristocratic families, and the Lu Palace is also powerful. If we take action directly, I am afraid we will suffer a great loss."
Luo Menghong couldn't help but said unhappily: "Do you think there is no need for strategy in war? This Ali knows more than you, just listen to her."
Strategy?
Is it useful?
Chen Jiu simply said, "Uncle, I am at most a half-immortal. The earthly immortals of the aristocratic families are all real immortals. Moreover, I have offended them badly. I can't hide from them now. I am going to fight with them for territory. Isn't this courting death?"
Luo Menghong said calmly: "Don't worry, if you are in danger, I will save you."
How can we save them if you don’t even go with us?
Chen Jiu asked carefully: "We may be thousands of miles away, can you save us in time?"
Luo Menghong said without hesitation: "No matter how far, we will make it in time."
Is this true or false?
There was clear disbelief on Chen Jiu's face.
Seeing this, Luo Menghong couldn't help but get angry and said, "Do you have a brain? Do you think I would let Ali and the others die?"
This is indeed impossible.
Chen Jiu gritted his teeth and nodded: "Okay, I will help you grab the territory and help you make the elixir."
Can you let me out now?
Luo Menghong said calmly, "Well, let's do this first between you and Ali. If you want to marry our Ali, you should refine the elixir well. When all the elders and guardians of my sect have broken through to the realm of earthly immortals, you can get married."
ah!
Chen Jiu couldn't help but ask, "Uncle, how many elders and guardians does my sect have?"
Luo Menghong said calmly: "Besides you, there are twelve elders and twelve guardians."
My God, twenty-four, are you trying to defy the will of heaven?
Chen Jiu said with difficulty: "With so many people, it is impossible for all of them to break through to the Earthly Immortal Realm, right?"
Luo Menghong said confidently: "Originally it was unlikely, but with the Essence Pill, it's different.
Don't worry, the elders and guardians of my sect are only one step away from becoming earthly immortals. With one bottle of Essence Pill, there is nothing they can't achieve. If there is anyone who can't achieve it, I will remove him and replace him with someone who can."
Well, if that's the case, it'll be a few years at most.
By then, the strength of the Qinglian Sect will be terrifying, with twenty-four earthly immortals!
No, including my father-in-law’s family and the three of him, there are a total of thirty-one people!
Who will dare to mess with me then?
Chen Jiu's expression finally looked a little better after he was shocked. He came here to save his life. If the Qinglian Sect really had twenty more earthly immortals, he basically wouldn't have to worry about anyone daring to deal with him.
By this calculation, it wouldn't be a bad idea to work for my father-in-law for a few years.
