A day ago, the Wang family's mortal enemy, the Jindan family Zhou family, suddenly found Fangyan Valley and trapped dozens of members of the Wang family in the valley.
In order to not let any remnant of the Wang family go, the Zhou family actually sent out three Foundation Establishment cultivators and a team of late Qi Refining clan members.
There is no need to hold out any hope, the Wang family is doomed this time.
At the end of Qianli Fu, it was written that the Zhao Sheng family should escape as soon as possible to prevent the Zhou family from finding the Zhao family and eradicating them completely.
The Wang family has moved to Ganzhou for more than 60 years and has always been safe and sound. Why did the Zhou family come knocking on their door now?
Zhao Sheng was shocked and angry, and was very confused, and Wang Yuqi didn't know why.
He quickly guessed a possibility, "Could it be because of that foundation-building pill?"
Over the past decade, the Wang family's annual income has increased significantly due to the addition of perfume as an income source, and they can save three to four hundred spirit stones a year.
Wang Zonghai is nearly ninety years old. If he doesn't build a foundation, he won't live for many years.
So half a year ago, the Wang family unanimously decided that even if it meant risking their entire fortune, they would let Wang Zonghai try to build his foundation.
So in the past six months, in addition to selling off their ancestral property, the Wang family also forced their son-in-law Zhao Sheng to do seven or eight unprofitable businesses.
A month ago, the Wang family spent a huge sum of money, spending more than 20,000 spirit stones to finally buy an inferior foundation-building pill.
Zhao Sheng's guess was correct; the disaster did stem from the Foundation Establishment Pill, but it was only an indirect factor. The Wang family's sale of the last ancestral spiritual weapon, the Red Dragon Sword, was the direct cause of this genocide.
The Red Dragon Sword is the spiritual weapon most commonly used by the Wang family's ancestor when he was building his foundation.
Because the Red Dragon Sword appeared in the market of Liang State, a member of the Zhou family who was in the foundation-building stage happened to see the Red Dragon Sword at an auction, and was shocked to find that the remnants of the Wang family were hiding in Liang State.
The Wang family's ancestral home is in the Dayong Dynasty of the Tianhuang Territory. It was once a Jindan family. The family's ancestor and the Jindan ancestor of the neighboring Zhou family were sworn enemies.
So when the ancestor of the Wang family passed away, the Wang family was in chaos. Under the siege led by the ancestor of the Zhou family, the Wang family's family formation was finally broken and the entire family was almost wiped out.
Wang Zonghai and others were the last members of the Wang family to escape.
"Husband, what should we do?" Wang Yuqi was at a loss and had no idea what to do.
"Don't panic! I'll take care of everything."
The Wang family is beyond saving. The most important thing right now is to save the lives of his entire family.
Zhao Sheng now faced an extremely difficult choice. He had eight children, the eldest, Zhao Chenggong, was sixteen years old, and the youngest, Zhao Chengle, was only one year old.
In addition, the Zhao family in Nanyang has more than a thousand members.
The Zhao family in Nanyang is not a big problem. I think the Zhou family may not look down on them and may not kill them as they are just a bunch of mortals.
However, the Zhou family will not let his family go, because the world of immortal cultivation has always had the tradition of eradicating the roots.
"The Zhou family of Dayong! I, Zhao, will repay the blood debt owed to this family tenfold. Even if it doesn't work in this life, there's still the next. One day in the next life, I'll make your Zhou family pay for their blood debt with blood."
Thinking of this, Zhao Sheng gritted his teeth and made a cruel decision.
In order to increase the chance of survival as much as possible, the couple only took Zhao Cheng with them, and arranged for the other seven children to be taken care of by close relatives, trying to escape separately.
After making his choice, Zhao Sheng did not hesitate and immediately found the head of the family, Zhao Hexing, and told him that the Wang family had been destroyed and that his family had to escape as soon as possible.
After learning about this, Zhao Hexing's face changed drastically and he stood there in a daze.
Zhao Sheng had no time to delay. Regardless of Zhao Hexing's reaction, he repeated his plan.
Decades of service as the head of the family were not in vain. Zhao Hexing quickly calmed down and decisively summoned seven of his most trusted relatives. In just a quarter of an hour, he arranged everything.
Two hours later, Zhao Sheng, with a face full of grief, watched as carriages carrying children drove off to an unknown place.
For safety reasons, no one in the Zhao family knew the final destination of the escape, not even Zhao Sheng.
When they escaped, each of the seven children carried a family token to facilitate their recognition in the future.
Zhao Sheng didn't know whether he would be able to see his child again in his lifetime.
"Ma'am, stop looking. We're leaving!"
Zhao Sheng put Lao Ba into a sleeping bag, tied it tightly on his back, and then forcibly dragged Wang Yuqi, who was staring into the distance, onto two thousand-mile divine horses.
"Take care of yourself!"
Zhao Sheng looked back at Zhao Hexing, whose hair had suddenly turned completely white, and nodded with a heavy expression.
Go go!
The two thousand-mile horses snorted excitedly, stamped their hooves, and galloped away like arrows.
When Zhao Sheng and his family disappeared into the horizon, Zhao Hexing suddenly burst into tears.
…
In summer, Tianzhu Mountain towers into the clouds, the mountain walls are covered with lush greenery, and wild vines, strange trees and unknown plants are almost everywhere.
Zhao Sheng stood on the edge of the cliff, gazing into the distance. Beneath his feet lay a vast expanse of clouds, and beyond his sight, he could see no end. From all directions, the wind roared like a tidal wave, pushing the clouds and mist against the rock face, seemingly threatening to sweep the occupant away into this boundless sea of clouds.
Looking around from where he stood, he could see that the mountain walls on both sides extended for who knows how far, as if there was no end.
Although this section of cliff is quite large and has cliffs and depressions, it can only be regarded as a very small and remote corner in the Tianzhu Mountain, which has a cross-sectional circumference of thousands of miles and is so high that the peak cannot be seen. Usually, few herbalists visit here.
"Tianzhu Mountain, Tianzhu Mountain... Have you truly pierced the sky? I wonder if one day, when the endless sea of clouds and the celestial energies dissipate, I'll be able to see the entire mountain clearly?"
It's a very normal thought. Almost every herbalist in Tianzhu Mountain will have a similar impulse.
Over the years, Zhao Sheng has gone up and down the boundless mountain wall thousands and tens of thousands of times. During this period, no matter whether the weather was sunny or cloudy, he had never seen the sea of clouds above his head or under his feet dissipate.
Tianzhu Mountain is a very famous place in the world of immortal cultivation. It is known as the central axis of the sky and the center of the world. It is also a paradise for independent cultivators.
Twenty-three years ago, Zhao Sheng and his family of three fled to the vicinity of Tianzhu Mountain and settled down there in seclusion.
In order to accumulate cultivation resources for Lao Ba, Zhao Sheng soon became one of the hundreds of thousands of herbalists in Tianzhu Mountain. Every day he was busy collecting various spiritual herbs in exchange for spiritual stones, magic talismans and other cultivation resources.
There are countless magical medicines on Tianzhu Mountain, the most famous of which are Purple Qizhi and Moon Dew.
The Moon Dew is so mysterious that it only appears at an altitude of thirty miles or more on Tianzhu Mountain. It is too high and too dangerous to reach there unless you are at the Foundation Establishment stage or above.
So I don't mention the moon dew, I only talk about the purple qizhi.
Ziqizhi is divided into four grades according to its age: white, green, red and purple.
Ganoderma lucidum under 100 years old is called white ganoderma, while ganoderma lucidum between 100 and 500 years old is called green ganoderma. Ganoderma lucidum over 500 years old is as red as fire, while ganoderma lucidum over 1,000 years old is purple, hence the name purple ganoderma.
It is famous because the red ganoderma that is more than 500 years old is the main ingredient for refining the foundation-building pill, while the purple ganoderma that is more than 1,000 years old is one of the main ingredients for refining the golden pill.
Just these two points show how popular Purple Qi Ganoderma is in the world of immortal cultivation!
