Du Xiaodie followed in, and after seeing this scene, she also showed a worried expression on her face. But before she could ask, the head of the Du family lying on the bed opened his eyes, turned his gaze to the door, and said to the mother and daughter.
"You guys go out first, I have something to talk to Ping An about."
Du Xiaodie subconsciously wanted to refuse, but before she could say anything, her mother pulled her back, turned around and walked out of the room, and helped close the door before leaving.
The head of the Du family sat up only after the mother and daughter left.
His injuries were quite serious, and the simple action of getting up made him gasp for breath. Du Pingan tried to push him back several times, but he stopped him every time.
He walked to the corner and turned the landscape porcelain vase three times.
rumble
After the sound of a mechanism being activated, the bed in the bedroom sank into the ground and a vermilion wooden box rose from underneath.
"My father was hurt by this thing."
"Huh?"
When Du Ping'an saw the wooden box, Chen Luo, who was far away in Changsheng Temple, also saw it. He not only saw the wooden box, but also saw the things sealed inside.
It was a bronze mirror.
The pattern on the back of the mirror was very beautiful, but that was not important. What really caught Chen Luo's attention was what was inside the mirror.
Evil spirit!
To be precise, it is the breath of a strange monster.
The strange monsters of this era have not yet taken shape. Chen Luo has been in this era for so long, but has never encountered a powerful strange monster. He originally thought that strange monsters were something that emerged after the birth of the legendary world. Now it seems that the strange monsters appeared earlier than he expected.
"What is this?"
Du Ping'an looked at his pale father and immediately asked.
After three years of practice, Du Ping'an's strength is no less than that of the Du family's patriarch. Taking into account the bonus of the Salvation Sutra, ordinary first-class masters are no match for him.
“This is the innate foundation!”
There was a hint of eagerness in the eyes of the Du family's patriarch.
They had joined someone in the royal family several years ago and had been secretly accumulating strength over the years. This situation was supposed to continue for a few more years, but the appearance of this thing disrupted Mr. Du's plan and allowed him to come into contact with a power that ordinary martial artists could not reach in advance.
"Destiny demon!"
"As long as you can gain the recognition of this thing, you will be able to see a wider world, sense higher-level powers that we mortals cannot see, and advance to become an innate master!"
Breaking through the innate secrets is Mr. Du’s greatest achievement over the years.
"A higher power."
Du Ping'an was shocked. He felt that the world he had lived in for more than ten years was slowly becoming unfamiliar.
"Let's give it a try. If it works, our Du family will have one more innate master. By then, we will have the capital to make a living in this chaotic world. Together with your master, the master of Changsheng Temple, we will have two innate masters and will have the right to choose our camp."
Old Master Du put the wooden box on the table and motioned Du Ping'an to bite his finger and drip blood on the box.
"This is the bloodstain I tried to leave before, but unfortunately I failed."
Seeing Du Ping'an saw the bloodstains on the wooden box, Grandpa Du laughed at himself. He had originally robbed this thing in order to make himself break through, but after all the hard work, he was rejected by the Fate Demon, which was a big blow to him.
"I'll try."
Du Ping'an bit his index finger, and blood dripped down his fingertips
A cup of tea passed.
The wooden box showed no sign of opening.
The father and son were silent.
"It doesn't matter if you fail. There is more than one kind of destiny demon. You may meet other destiny demons that suit you in the future." Grandpa Du was a little disappointed, but he still comforted his son.
"I see."
Du Ping'an nodded, then spoke to his father.
"How about letting my little sister come in and try?"
"No, the life demon in this box is of 'pure yang' attribute, and only men can absorb it. If you ask your little sister to come in, not only will you not gain any opportunities, but it will also harm her life."
Mr. Du shook his head and said.
When this box was first obtained, some of them tried it. Several women in the team all died suddenly, and their deaths were extremely miserable.
When the father and son were talking by candlelight at night.
Something big happened in Da Cang.
Chen Luo in Changsheng Temple shifted his attention away from the Du family, and his gaze passed through the void, looking towards the capital of Da Cang.
"When a country is about to fall, there will be evil. I just didn't expect that this 'evil' is an acquaintance."
This is the core power center of the Da Cang Dynasty.
Enshrouded in a layer of gray deathly power, the new emperor huddled in the Hall of Supreme Harmony and shivered. The huge palace was now empty, with no one in sight.
"Someone come!"
"Someone come quickly!!"
The new emperor called out desperately, but no one responded to him from beginning to end.
On the square in front of the palace, where the princes and ministers usually stood, there was a strange wooden building. Two blood-red lanterns were hung on the building, and the word "past" was clearly visible on them. A woman in a red dress sat at the door of the inn, smiling and waving at the new emperor in the palace.
"Sir, come in and have a drink."
"roll!"
The new emperor covered his ears and roared desperately.
"I have already offered sacrifices to the Heaven. It won't be long before the gods from the upper realm will come down and kill you, the evil demon." The new emperor of Da Cang frequently offered sacrifices to the Heaven because he encountered this thing.
An inn!
An inn that somehow appeared in the palace. In order to deal with this inn, all ten great priests of the Da Cang royal family died in it.
"Would you like to stay at the hotel, sir?"
The woman inside seemed to be unable to hear the Emperor Da Cang's voice and continued to solicit customers.
On the shoulder of this woman, a poisonous insect with thin silver-white wings was lying there. The body of this poisonous insect was translucent, and every time it moved, it became a little more illusory, as if it was a shadow projected from the past or the future.
The Du family father and son ended their conversation.
Grandpa Du put the wooden box back on the stone wall, and Du Ping'an also left. Both father and son acted as if nothing had happened. The failure of fusing the life demon made them both somewhat disappointed.
"Since when do fake spiritual roots become so arrogant?"
Chen Luo walked to the edge of the pavilion, stretched out his right hand, and gently reached forward.
A circle of ripples like water waves appeared in the air. This circle of ripples turned into ripples and spread outward. With Changsheng Temple as the base point, the ripples quickly spread throughout the entire Graystone City, and then spread out to further away. After a moment, this circle of ripples quickly shrank back.
It was as if time had turned back and it was taken back into Changqing Temple.
Chen Luo, who was standing at the edge of the attic, retracted his right hand, and a dozen strange-shaped light spots appeared in his palm. These light spots were all the "life monsters" near Graystone City.
This kind of mysterious thing in the eyes of the Du father and son is like weeds on the roadside to Chen Luo, and he can grab a handful of it with just one hand.
"It just so happens that the practice of the Sutra of Saving People has reached this stage."
Chen Luo waved his sleeves.
The ground of the Taoist temple changed. The thick ground cracked in the middle, and a lot of soil flew out. It was surrounded by spiritual light, and in the blink of an eye, a huge basement was dug out of the ground. A stone spirit over three meters tall crawled out of it, walked to the rockery in the corner of the yard and sat down.
After setting up the secret room, Chen Luo threw the "Life Demon" in his hand into it.
In order to ensure that this secret room looks more aged, Chen Luo also specially found some low-level magical instruments from the storage bag to serve as carriers for them, making them look more textured.
the next day.
As soon as the sky was getting light, Du Ping'an returned to the temple.
After one night, he had recovered from the blow of "Destiny Demon Rejection". Since there was no way to reach the sky in one step, he would use the dumbest method to practice step by step. The feeling of the Sutra of Deliverance was completely different from the Jade Stone Skill. He felt that if he continued to practice like this, he might be able to break through to the Xiantian Realm in the future.
What your father says may not always be right.
He has never left Greystone City in his entire life, and his knowledge and experience are far inferior to his master's.
Squeak.
As soon as he entered the door, Du Ping'an saw his master sitting in the middle of the hall.
He stopped and bowed immediately.
"Master."
In Du Ping'an's impression, the master rarely came out. After staying here for three years, he knew the secrets of the temple and also knew that the "master" in the previous temple was a fake. The "master" who was very dull in dealing with people was a servant under the master.
"How do you feel?"
Chen Luo asked with a smile.
"What?"
"Destiny demon."
Chen Luo revealed the biggest secret of the Du family. Du Ping'an was not surprised. In his impression, his master had always been so mysterious. Although he had never been out of the house, there was nothing in the entire Graystone City that could be hidden from him.
"The disciple failed to gain the recognition of the Fate Demon."
Du Ping'an described the process of his blood dripping.
"The life demon is like a wild dog. If it doesn't listen, beat it. After beating it many times, it will naturally behave itself." After saying that, without waiting for Du Ping'an to react, he gave him a key.
"Go to the secret room behind the Taoist temple and catch a fate demon that you like. I will help you tame it."
Looking at the key in his hand, Du Ping'an didn't react for a moment.
Domestication?
Can the fate demon be tamed?
When did a secret room appear in a Taoist temple? How come he had never heard of it before?
"Go ahead. After you find a fate demon you like, I will give you a gift."
Chen Luo plans to copy a "brain" of his own for Du Ping'an, and he has already thought of the identity, which is the "destiny demon"!
After three years of leading the way, it is time to retire.
The practice of the stars in the sky has also entered the next stage. He must go to the imperial capital of Da Cang to comprehend the stars from there.
The area outside Da Cang has undergone tremendous changes in the past three years. The remaining power of the immortal weapon has begun to merge with this land, forming unique areas one after another. The danger has been greatly reduced. Not long ago, he sensed several auras entering this place.
These people are all immortal cultivators who have taken refuge from the upper realm. (End of this chapter)
