Chapter 802: Zhou Family Ancestor
"I have discovered all these, so while you are practicing hard, I have already formulated some modification and repair plans based on the terrain, veins and formations of Da Ruo Island and Xiao Ruo Island. The broken branches of the Flame Dragon veins also need to be connected." As he spoke, a jade talisman appeared in Qin Ziling's hand.
The jade talisman slowly rose into the air and hung in the air in front of the two people. Runes flashed, revealing the topography and veins of Da Ruo Island and Xiao Ruo Island, as well as the image of the large formation. The places that needed to be modified and repaired were marked.
Xu Bogu and Xu Boyu were both masters of weapon refining and formations, and were very familiar with their own terrain, veins, and formations. After taking a look and pondering for a moment, their faces were filled with shock.
"Master, if we follow this method, the power of the protective formation of the Big and Small Ruo Islands will probably be restored to its heyday when our ancestors were still alive. But the financial and human resources consumed, especially the magical instruments that suppress the formation and the connecting branches..." Xu Bogu spoke quickly, looking troubled.
"While you were practicing hard, I have refined some magical instruments to suppress the formation. As for that branch, I will connect it, and the other matters are left to you." Qin Ziling interrupted.
After saying this, one after another top-grade magic weapons flew out of his hands and hung in the air.
These top-grade immortal weapons are different from ordinary top-grade immortal weapons. These are top-grade immortal weapons used to suppress the center of the formation and have special functions. Not only are the materials used special, but also it is impossible to refine them without a true master of refining weapons and formations.
Xu Bogu and Xu Boyu looked at the immortal weapons floating in the air. They were shocked at first, then confused, and then they burst into tears unknowingly.
"Thank you for your help, Master!" After a long time, the two took a deep breath and bowed to Qin Ziling to express their gratitude.
"According to the time, the Zhou family should take action in the near future. You should quickly arrange people to repair the formation." Qin Ziling said.
After saying this, he turned into a ball of yellow smoke, drilled into the earth and disappeared.
"It is a blessing for my Xu family to be able to serve under the master!" Xu Boyu said with emotion.
"Yes, it's a pity that I failed to live up to his high hopes. I wasted so many resources, but couldn't survive the wind and fire disaster!" Xu Bogu said with emotion.
"Brother can't let go of the Xu family. He is worried about gains and losses, and his mind is burdened too much, so he can't take this step. But there is no rush. Anyway, brother still has more than 300 years before the deadline to survive the wind and fire calamity. He can always let it go when the time comes." Xu Boyu said.
"After all, my moral integrity is still not as good as yours and Xu Sheng's. There are many shortcomings!" Xu Bogu sighed.
"It is the Xu family that has dragged down my eldest brother, causing him to worry and have concerns all the time. That's why it is like this. But it is also because I have my eldest brother at the helm of the Xu family that Xu Sheng and I can focus on making progress without being distracted and without having to worry about family affairs." Xu Boyu said.
Hearing this, Xu Bogu patted Xu Boyu on the shoulder and said, "Gather the core disciples. We have distributed some Wuchen Xiandan and Du'e Xiandan a few days ago. Now our Xu family should have many more disciples who can stand on their own. We finally have the aura of a big family."
…
Zhou family.
A seventh-rank true immortal rushed into the mansion of the great clan elder.
The elder of the clan was wearing a white robe, had a childlike face and white hair, and looked like an immortal.
The elder of the big family is named Zhou Xingzhi. In terms of seniority, he is two generations older than Zhou Gongding. His immortal power is powerful and unfathomable.
"Why are you so flustered?" Zhou Xingzhi saw the seventh-rank immortal kneeling in front of the emperor with an anxious and flustered look on his face. His white eyebrows twitched slightly and his tone was a little displeased.
“Reporting to the great clan elder, my ancestor led a group of people to the Xu family’s Xiaoruo Island a few days ago to ask for a piece of Nine-bend Immortal Ganoderma. Logically, he should have returned long ago, but he has not returned yet.
I, the younger generation, specially went to the Xu family's territory to make some inquiries, and just now I learned that my ancestor surrounded Xiaoruo Island some time ago, and a fierce battle broke out between the two sides.
Later, my ancestor led people to break through the protective formation of Xiaoruo Island and entered Xiaoruo Island. Then the protective formation was restored, and the entire island was guarded by a fire dragon. My ancestor and the people he brought never came out again. "Seventh-Rank True Immortal said.
"There is such a thing!" Zhou Xingzhi's face changed slightly when he heard this, but he quickly said, "Don't worry, the Xu family is now in a state of decline, and there is not even a ninth-grade true immortal. With the strength of your ancestor, they can't do anything to him."
"I think so too, but I see that there is no movement from the Xu family right now." said the Seventh Rank True Immortal.
"This is impossible! If your ancestor was still trapped on Xiaoruo Island, he would have turned the island upside down long ago. There would be no movement!" Zhou Xingzhi's face finally changed drastically. He stood up and said, "This matter is serious. I need to report this to my ancestor. "
Zhou Shixin is a Taoist immortal who has existed for a long time. To many Zhou family members, even he is many generations older than them and is like an ancestor.
After saying that, Zhou Xingzhi hurried to the residence of the Zhou family patriarch.
"What's the matter?" Zhou Shixin sat high on the patriarch's seat and asked Zhou Xingzhi who was standing in the hall.
"Your Excellency, something might have happened to Zhou Gongding." Zhou Xingzhi then recounted the incident of Zhou Gongding's siege of Xu's Xiaoruo Island a few days ago.
"Is this true?" Zhou Shixin's face darkened slightly when he heard this. Then he closed his eyes and pinched his fingers rapidly.
As he quickly pinched his fingers, the sky above the Zhou family changed, and there were faint lines of blood interweaving in the air, turning into runes.
Suddenly, Zhou Shixin's face changed drastically and he stood up suddenly.
All of a sudden, blood runes exploded in the sky above the Zhou family, the wind and clouds changed drastically, lightning and thunder flashed, and heavy rain poured down.
"Ancestor!" Zhou Xingzhi's face changed drastically when he saw this.
"Duke Zhou Ding is dead, and Zhou Zidao is also dead!" Zhou Shixin's face quickly returned to calm, but there was a murderous intent deep in his eyes.
The Zhou family has been somewhat lacking in successors in the past ten thousand years, with only four ninth-grade True Immortals.
Originally, Zhou Ziru and Zhou Shixin had high hopes for her, so they risked their lives and sent her to the Dark Emperor Heaven. However, after getting this great opportunity, she died in the Dark Emperor Heaven.
This made Zhou Shixin feel extremely resentful.
Now, Zhou Gongding has died again, and a candidate for the ninth-rank true immortal, Zhou Zidao, has also died.
Even if Zhou Shixin had practiced Taoism for tens of thousands of years and would not change color even if the mountains collapsed, his heart was now filled with waves.
"How could the Xu family possibly kill Zhou Gongding and the others!" Zhou Xingzhi's face was full of disbelief.
"Things change unpredictably. Since the Xu family has the ability to kill Zhou Gongding and the others, we can no longer keep the Xu family. We can also use this as an excuse to completely destroy the Xu family and take Daruo Island into our possession." Zhou Shixin said calmly.
"Ancestor is wise!" Zhou Xingzhi bowed, with a gleam of burning greed in his eyes.
Mount Dara is a mountain with the rhythm of Taoism. A ninth-grade immortal who practices in this mountain can more easily comprehend the way of Taoism. It is also said that there is a forbidden land of Flame Dragon on Mount Dara, which contains the Taoist tradition and a trace of the original power left by the ancestor of the Xu family.
Zhou Xingzhi practiced fire-based Taoism. If he could inherit the Xu family's Taoist tradition, he would have a better chance of becoming a Taoist immortal.
Soon, Zhou's men began to take action.
Waves of terrifying aura carrying murderous intent rose up into the sky and could be felt even from far away.
…
“Dang! Dang! Dang!”
Loud alarm bells rang out from Mount Dara, one louder than the other, shaking the clouds surrounding the mountain so much that they dispersed.
