After hanging up the phone, Feng Qi immediately decided to set off for Shengli City.

Next, Shengli City will hold a memorial service for Jiang Nanqiu, and after the memorial service, a top-level meeting will be held to discuss and decide the successor of the miracle item "Five Power Gem" left by Jiang Nanqiu.

When facing the inquiry of Wang Ye, the decision-maker of Shengli City, on the phone, the first thing that came to Feng Qi's mind was Zhang Daowen and Lu Yue.

As the recognized leader of the human race, he has the power to decide the identity of the successor of the Five Power Gem.

But he can't do it.

After all, Shengli City has only joined the human alliance for more than 40 years, and there are only millions of believers in Shengli City who can borrow their innate abilities.

Doing so will inevitably cause some dissatisfaction.

So the process should be followed again.

That night, Feng Qi took a special plane to Shengli City.

Compared with the journey to Shengli City more than 40 years ago, Feng Qi found that the number of domains on the route from Xingcheng to Shengli City has increased significantly.

According to this trend, the distance between Xingcheng and Shengli City will become farther and farther in the future.

On the plane along the way, Xiaoyou seemed very curious about why he went to Shengli City.

Facing Xiaoyou's question, Feng Qi told the story of Jiang Nanqiu, and finally couldn't help sighing, life can't escape the end of birth, aging, illness and death.

After listening to his story, Xiaoyou nodded as if he understood:

"So, boss, are you going to a meeting to decide who will inherit the five power gems?"

"Yeah."

Hearing his affirmative answer, Xiaoyou put down the two energy guide rods in his hand, rolled up his sleeves and revealed his flat biceps:

"Boss, what do you think of me?"

Feng Qi glanced at Xiaoyou and couldn't help rolling his eyes:

"Not very good."

"Okay." Xiaoyou nodded decadently, silently picked up the energy guide rod on his thigh, and continued to weave the space bracelet.

...

Arriving in Shengli City, Feng Qi attended Jiang Nanqiu's memorial service.

Many of the people present were members of Tongtian Company.

In name, Jiang Nanqiu was a retired veteran and a spiritual mentor who traveled around major cities, but behind the scenes, even his relatives didn't know the identity of the second person in charge of Tongtian Company.

This secret was only known to the top members of the Dawn City Alliance.

At that time, Feng Qi had thought about letting Jiang Nanqiu try to practice the Blood and Flesh Sacrifice, but Jiang Nanqiu's body was very old, and the various diseases brought by the early battles on the front line were difficult to cure with current medical means. When the first batch of the Blood and Flesh Sacrifice was promoted, Jiang Nanqiu even had difficulty walking.

At this time, he could not practice the Blood and Flesh Sacrifice at all.

But Feng Qi did not give up. He tried to let others help Jiang Nanqiu guide the blood circulation in his body and try to practice the Blood and Flesh Sacrifice.

This method still ended in failure after trying.

He was not surprised to learn that Jiang Nanqiu had passed away, but just felt sad.

On the night of the memorial service, Feng Qi participated in the highest meeting of Victory City. The theme of this meeting was the identity of the heir of Jiang Nanqiu's Five Power Gem.

According to the regulations of Victory City, the relics belong to future generations.

But the Five Power Gem obviously cannot be classified as relics or inheritance. This is a divine object belonging to all mankind, and its ownership will affect the future development of mankind.

There are six people who were included in the list of candidates for succession at this meeting.

They are Mu Qing, Zhang Daowen, Lu Yue, Li Shouqing, Xia Rui, and Xie Tian.

Among them, Mu Qing, Zhang Daowen, Li Shouqing, and Xia Rui are among the top ten war gods of the world.

They are the existence standing at the ceiling of human combat power.

Although Lu Yue has never been to the front line, his identity is also very special. He is the chief combat instructor of the only two top universities in the human race.

The last one, Xie Tian, ​​is the current head of Tongtianlian and is now 84 years old.

His achievements have never been announced to the public, but Feng Qi knows very well that Xie Tian has secretly guarded Shengli City in his life and resisted the invasion of many latent forces in the field. He has made an indelible contribution to the development of Shengli City.

How to choose? At the beginning of the meeting, everyone turned their eyes to Feng Qi.

The decision-maker who presided over this meeting also turned his eyes to Feng Qi, nodded solemnly, and asked:

"Mr. Feng, everyone here is your junior. What do you think of this meeting?"

"I don't have any opinion for the time being. You continue the meeting and I will listen."

Hearing Feng Qi's reply, the host of the meeting nodded and then continued the meeting.

In Feng Qi's view, among the six candidates for this meeting, Mu Qing is the most powerful human in the world, but he is also the first to be eliminated.

After all, Mu Qing already possessed the Miracle Scarlet Power.

There were cases of successful compatibility of miracle items. The Messenger of Destiny had heard about the compatibility of miracles in Destiny City and recorded it in the Faith Database.

But the premise of miracle compatibility is that the effects of two miracles cannot be the same.

One of the functions of the Five Power Gems is to strengthen the body, and the same is true for the power of the Scarlet Rune Gems.

If the two enhancements are bestowed on Mu Qing at the same time, there will be no fusion. The inevitable result is that one power covers another power, which will also cause a huge operating load on the body.

So Mu Qing was excluded first.

As Feng Qi expected, Mu Qing was excluded at the beginning of this meeting.

Putting Mu Qing on the list of candidates is more like a symbolic respect. After all, Mu Qing has made outstanding contributions to human civilization.

Eliminating the potential crisis of Winter City, integrating the scavenger group, and building the Winter Dawn Military Department... Each achievement is enough to be recorded in history.

The meeting lasted until the early morning, and there were only two competitors left.

They were Xie Tian from Tongtian Company and Zhang Daowen, the commander-in-chief of the United Military Department.

They all made great contributions to the development of mankind. According to their merits, everyone is eligible to inherit the Five Power Gems.

The meeting continued to discuss this issue.

At this time, an old man at the decision-making seat stood up.

His face was thin, his rough skin was covered with deep wrinkles from the years, his eyes were deep, like two sharp knives, and there were several obvious scars on his arms, which seemed to be proof of the fierce battles he had experienced in his life.

His hair had become sparse, with a few strands of white hair. Although he looked old, he stood there tall and strong, with majesty between his eyebrows.

These features formed the first impression of fortitude, courage, and strength.

Just from his appearance, one could imagine his iron-blooded life.

The old man spoke at this time, and his hoarse voice resounded over the conference hall:

"I give up the right to inherit the Five Power Gems. In my opinion, Zhang Daowen is more suitable to inherit the Five Power Gems than me. I am old, and my blood is getting thinner. According to the calculation of the Scarlet Research Institute, even if I practice the Blood and Flesh Sacrifice, I can only live to 300 years old at most. But Zhang Daowen is different. This era is just the starting point of his growth, far from his future... Whether from the perspective of personal development potential or the future development direction of the human race, Zhang Daowen is more suitable to inherit the Five Power Gems than me."

The old man who said this was Xie Tian.

He was 84 years old and was a member of the first list of the Blood and Flesh Sacrifice.

But as Xie Tian said, the Blood and Flesh Sacrifice can only prolong life, not rejuvenate.

Practicing the Blood and Flesh Sacrifice at his age is far less effective than those of the new generation members.

Facing Xie Tian's active refusal, there was a long silence at the scene. Finally, the decision-maker who presided over the meeting asked Xie Tian:

"Mr. Xie, are you sure you want to make this decision?"

"Sure."

"I declare the meeting over. The successor of the Five Powers Gem is confirmed to be Zhang Daowen."

The host did not hesitate. Although he may have many thoughts in his heart, he still announced the result of the meeting without hesitation.

So far, Zhang Daowen no longer has any competitors and has become the second successor of the Five Powers Gem after Jiang Nanqiu.

Returning to Xingcheng, Feng Qi brought back the Five Powers Gem.

But he did not test the detailed data of the Five Powers Gem, because the relevant test database has the results of the evaluation of the research institutions in Shengli City.

The Five Powers Gem is mainly divided into five parts, namely:

the black gem that increases strength, and its own strength will be increased to the limit after it is turned on.

The blue gem that increases speed will no longer be affected by any resistance after it is turned on, and the moving speed will be increased to the limit.

The red gem that increases the effect of magic, after it is turned on, the efficiency of the magic operation will be increased to the limit, and any magic can be automatically outlined and released with just one thought.

The green gem with perfect self-healing ability will not improve the body's defense after it is turned on, but it will not be damaged by any injuries. All injuries can be healed in an instant.

The last golden gem represents infinite energy. Even if the energy in the body is exhausted, it will be recharged in an instant.

The combination of gold and red magic gem is simply a magical skill.

These five gems can be removed and used separately, but the effect will be significantly weakened if they cannot form a whole set.

Among them, the infinite energy mode of the golden gem once made Shengli City think that it had found a way to use infinite energy.

But the test results showed that the infinite gem could not be activated independently and someone had to control it.

In other words, in order to obtain infinite energy, one person must constantly drive the power of the golden gem to create a constant flow of energy.

But after trying this method, Shengli City gave up.

Because the power of each gem will cause a load on the body after being fused with the body, no one can use the infinite energy of the golden gem without limit, and must rest after using it for a period of time.

Before going to Shengli City, Feng Qi thought about disassembling the five power gems and using them to turn them into five incomplete miracle items.

But this idea was finally abandoned.

Zhang Daowen's combat mode is more inclined to the magic flow, mainly to control the power of extreme cold.

The gems suitable for Zhang Daowen are gold charging gems, red magic amplification gems, green perfect self-healing gems, and blue speed gems. Only one power gem is not suitable for Zhang Daowen's combat mode.

But it doesn't make much sense to separate the power gem alone.

The power gem cannot improve its own defense, and the increase of itself with a strong power attack alone is very limited.

When encountering a domain creature with long-range curse ability or long-range magic attack ability, no matter how strong the power is, there is a danger of instant death.

This is different from Mu Qing.

The scarlet gem gives Mu Qing a bonus to all attributes, allowing him to have a nearly invincible body and infinitely amplified power, and he is not afraid of any type of enemy at all.

Even Mu Qing has a mysterious scarlet phantom with mental attack.

Pure power improvement can't reach Mu Qing's height at all.

After comprehensive consideration, he felt that there was no need to remove the power gem. Only by combining the five gems into a whole and handing them over to Zhang Daowen can his combat effectiveness be significantly improved.

With the power gem, Zhang Daowen's shortcomings in close combat will also be made up.

If a strong enemy approaches, Zhang Daowen, as a magician, can also switch his power form instantly and give the opponent a fatal blow.

It is certain that Zhang Daowen, who has the power

of miracles, will have unlimited future. Even in the face of the threat of the combat power of the Mo Yue Legion holding miracles, Zhang Daowen, who controls miracles, can also have the opportunity to counterattack, or even the opportunity to kill.

For example, encountering the miracle seal of the Lord of the Sky.

Only those with miracles can resist with the power of miracles. Even if they are sealed, they have the opportunity to break free, but without miracles, even if they are strong, they will be sealed infinitely.

As long as the Lord of the Sky does not take back the seal, there is no possibility of breaking free.

Back to Star City, Zhang Daowen was not in Star City at this time.

Miracles are of great significance. There are risks in sending anyone to escort miracles to the western supply area. He immediately called Zhang Daowen and asked him to go back to Star City.

That night, Zhang Daowen returned.

When the knock on the door sounded, Xiaoyou, who was waiting at the door, showed a joyful expression on her face and opened the door immediately.

Zhang Daowen, who had changed into casual clothes, was standing at the door.

"Sister Xiaoyou."

After greeting, Zhang Daowen looked up at Feng Qi, who was busy in the room wearing an apron, and a smile appeared on his face:

"Uncle Qi."

"Come in, I've made a table of dishes you like."

Looking at the steaming dishes on the table, Zhang Daowen felt warm in his heart.

"Hey, you came so late. The boss didn't let me eat first, I was so greedy."

Xiaoyou hurried back to the table at this time, jumped on the chair and began to wait excitedly for Fengqi to sit down.

Taking off the apron, Fengqi came to the table and sat down, then smiled and said:

"Let's eat."

A similar scene last happened decades ago.

At that time, Zhang Daowen was a little kid who followed him. He usually ate in the restaurant, but occasionally he would cook a table of dishes he was good at for Zhang Daowen and Xiaoyou.

This situation was usually initiated by Xiaoyou, who shouted that he wanted to eat the dishes made by the boss and said that he missed the taste of childhood.

So there were a few days every month when he cooked for Xiaoyou and Zhang Daowen.

Zhang Daowen also liked his cooking.

It's not that his cooking skills are so good. Zhang Daowen enjoys the warmth brought by family affection a lot of the time.

This is also the reason why Zhang Daowen chooses to work hard to grow up. He wants to protect the beauty in his heart and doesn't want the beauty to become a fleeting bubble.

"The taste of childhood, this bite reminds me of the tragic experience on the road to the challenge of ascending to the gods. I want to finish ten bowls today."

Xiaoyou threw the fried meat into his mouth, chewed and swallowed it, and shouted excitedly.

"Uncle Qi, you haven't cooked for so many years, and your cooking skills are still so good." Zhang Daowen also nodded and praised at this time. "

Eat more if you like it, and we'll talk about business after eating."

"Yeah."

An hour later, Zhang Daowen finished his meal, and only Xiaoyou was still hesitant to eat a bite, then rubbed his stomach for a while, and continued to eat another bite with difficulty.

In Xiaoyou's eyes, wasting food is unforgivable.

This is related to the experience of the challenge line of ascending to the gods. At that time, food was very precious and often hungry.

Years of experience have cultivated Xiaoyou's habit of never wasting when eating.

In Xiaoyou's words at that time:

"Boss, don't stop me. I can still eat. After this meal, I may not have the next one. I have to save some buffer time for the next meal."

"Xiaoyou, wash the dishes after eating."

"Okay, I'll wash them after eating." Xiaoyou nodded with difficulty, and then continued to rub his stomach.

Feng Qi stood up at this time, took out a box from the cabinet, opened it and placed the box in front of Zhang Daowen.

There were five diamond-shaped gems in the box, which were the miracle five-power gems.

"Uncle Qi, this..." "

Old senior Jiangnan Qiu passed away a few days ago. I didn't inform you of this news. Now you are his power successor and will become the next holder of the five-power gems."

Seeing the change in Zhang Daowen's expression, Feng Qi knew what he was thinking.

Then he smiled and shook his head and said:

"This is the decision of Shengli City. You don't have to worry about anything. Take it."

"I know."

The hesitation on Zhang Daowen's face turned into determination. He no longer refused and immediately took the five-power gems.

"Try the effect."

Zhang Daowen nodded, then took the lead in picking up the black power gem and used his consciousness to contact the black power gem.

Suddenly, the black power gem turned into a stream of light and merged into Zhang Daowen's body, appearing on his chest.

Zhang Daowen activated the function of the black gem at this time, and suddenly his body was wrapped in a thin layer of transparent black energy, and his momentum rose steadily.

"Uncle Qi, the effect of this black gem on the power enhancement seems to be related to the strength of my body. The stronger my body is, the stronger the power the gem gives me."

After clenching his fist and sensing the change in his own strength, Zhang Daowen's eyes showed surprise.

"Continue to try other gems."

Then Zhang Daowen reached out and picked up the red magic gem, absorbed it and embedded it, and suddenly Zhang Daowen's body surface energy turned red.

There was no need to seal, and Zhang Daowen's consciousness instantly appeared in front of him with wandering spiritual light spots, which quickly outlined the trajectory of magic.

"The effect of this gem is to automatically outline the magic, and the completeness of the outline has reached perfection."

Hearing this, Feng Qi couldn't help but nod.

Normally, the outline of a spell cannot reach perfection. There will be some deviations, which is related to proficiency.

Especially in battle, it is easy to be distracted, resulting in imperfect outline of the spell, which affects the power of the spell.

This red gem can give the holder the perfect ability to outline the spell, and bring the power of the spell to the extreme, without the need for a cumbersome spell outline process. Only one thought is needed, and the subsequent spell outline will be completed automatically.

Then Zhang Daowen tested the blue speed gem, the golden charging gem, and the green self-healing gem. After integrating the five gems into his body, Zhang Daowen had a complete miracle item, and his strength was increased several times.

And the power of the five-power gem will be further improved with the growth of Zhang Daowen.

After completing the test, Zhang Daowen could not hide his excitement on his face.

Seeing this scene, Feng Qi was sincerely gratified. In his eyes, Zhang Daowen was like his own child.

He often felt distressed for Zhang Daowen's efforts.

Seeing the happiness in Zhang Daowen's eyes, he was also happy for Zhang Daowen.

At this moment, Xiao You beside him burped, stood up from the chair, rubbed his swollen belly, looked at Zhang Daowen with a listless expression and said,

"Little brat, write a 10,000-word speech tomorrow, titled: Love from an old father."
