Every day, members of the branch clan would take the initiative to join Ning Zhuo and offer their services.

I would rather accept everyone who comes to me.

What made him even happier were the former deacons.

The elite among these foundation-building cultivators found Ning Zhuo privately and recommended their descendants to him.

This behavior has a significant meaning in the righteous path.

This shows that these foundation-building monks have truly returned to their hearts, agree with Ning Zhuo's future, and are willing to entrust their descendants to Ning Zhuo, while also seeking a future for their descendants! Ning Zhuo's requirements for this group of people are different again.

He noticed that the descendants of these former deacons were generally young and had lower levels of cultivation.

Ning Zhuo acted very coldly: "If you want me to accept them, then let them all disperse their power and practice the Five Elements Qi Law instead!"

Many people were worried about the subsequent practice methods and were hesitant. Only a small number of former deacons agreed immediately.

In the small courtyard.

Ning Houjun and Ning Youfu, the two former elders of the family, were playing chess.

Ning Youfu held the chess piece in his hand and had been lost in thought for a long time.

Ning Houjun couldn't help but urge: "You should get off quickly."

Ning Youfu placed his chess piece on the chessboard and exclaimed, "Fast, too fast."

Ning Houjun laughed: "You are talking about Ning Zhuo, right? The speed at which this junior rises is indeed much faster than you and I imagined."

Ning Youfu sighed and corrected, "It's too fast!"

"Ning Xiaohui's frame-up was originally a crisis, but Ning Zhuo resolved it perfectly, and it became a huge opportunity for him!"

"Tell me, does this guy have his own skills, or is there someone behind the scenes directing him?"

Ning Houjun glared: "What do you mean? Praise yourself in front of me?"

Ning Youfu laughed loudly: "My old friend, you have been hiding this from me until now. You are quite slow at playing chess."

The patriarch’s study.

Ning Xiaohui's grandmother dragged Ning Xiaohui to meet the head of the Ning family.

"Kneel down!" Ning Xiaohui's grandmother said sternly, "Look at what you have done!"

Ning Xiaohui gritted her teeth and immediately knelt down in front of the Ning family leader. She gritted her teeth and said, "Master Patriarch, Xiaohui, I know I was wrong! This time I was too jealous of Ning Zhuo. When I heard that the ancestors needed the material Night Wind Soft Iron, I reported Ning Zhuo without thinking."

"I was too restless."

"This actually gave him a golden opportunity to rise!"

At this point, Ning Xiaohui bit her lip in anger.

She was so angry.

She originally thought that she could frame Ning Zhuo, causing him to suffer heavy losses and have to swallow the loss, but she didn't expect that the clown in the end would be herself.

What she originally thought was a frame-up actually gave Ning Zhuo an opportunity, allowing him to catch the eyes of the Jindan cultivators, becoming famous and his personal power expanding rapidly in recent days.

When Ning Xiaohui thought about how she had caused all this, she wanted to commit suicide! Ning Xiaohui's grandmother paid attention to the Ning family leader's expression: "Master, although Xiaohui is my granddaughter, she acted on her own this time and caused heavy losses to the main branch of the family! How to punish her severely is entirely up to you, Master!"

The head of the Ning family stared at the two people in front of him, knowing that if they took the initiative to admit their mistakes and were punished, they would suffer the least. He snorted coldly, "Of course they will be severely punished. However, Ning Xiaohui is participating in the ancestors' weapon refining, and her role is not small."

"This clan leader will punish you by making you do meritorious service while guilty!"

Grandma Ning Xiaohui was overjoyed: "Master Patriarch is wise, thank you Master Patriarch!!"

By the time the grandfather and grandson left, the head of the Ning family was so angry that he grabbed the inkstone and smashed it out.

He vented his anger by smashing a few objects on the desk, then calmed down and looked frustrated.

"Ning Zhuo, the situation is getting serious!"

In just a few days, there have been earth-shaking changes.

Ning Zhuo made full use of the Ning family ancestor's words, which increased his power by at least seven times! His status in the entire family directly jumped several levels.

"Ning Zhuo wants some descendants of foundation-building cultivators to practice the Five Elements Qi Law. He wants to bypass the restrictions of the family's cultivation method and open up a new path for advancement."

"His ambition is obvious!"

"It was this Lava Palace that gave him the opportunity. Without the Palace, no matter how outstanding he was, what would he be able to do? It's all about timing and fate!"

"Isn't he greedy and stingy? How come he did it so well this time? Who was the one who directed him from behind?"

Thinking of this, the head of the Ning family became even more discouraged.

"In fact, it doesn't matter who taught Ning Zhuo."

"What's important is the attitude of the Golden Core Ancestor!"

The biggest source of power is violence.

The Jindan cultivator Ning Jufan is the most powerful person in the entire clan, so he naturally holds the highest power.

Ning Jufan is encouraging Ning Zhuo!

This is Ning's attitude of submission, and it is also the reason why the entire main branch of the Ning family is in constant fear.

The head of the Ning family smiled bitterly to himself: "Ancestor Ning Jiufan has a bond of gratitude to my main line, but we have troubled him so many times over the years, and his gratitude has been wasted too much."

"During the dispute between the main vein and the branch vein more than ten years ago, the ancestor was dissatisfied with the harsh punishment of the main vein."

"He hopes that the entire Ning family can grow stronger, not just the main branch!"

Realizing this, the head of the Ning family knew that he could not stop Ning Zhuo.

He originally wanted to make use of Ning Zhuo's collection of the flesh and blood of his tribesmen to write something about it.

If he really did that, he would be an idiot! All the Ning family leader could do was to secretly plant his people and infiltrate Ning Zhuo's forces.

Ning Zhuo quietly expanded the scale.

Now, the number of his tribesmen who regularly donated their flesh and blood to him was at least three times more than before.

This means that Ning Zhuo's speed of practicing the Devil Blood-stained Tendon Technique has also increased three times! Ning Zhuo announced to the public that he wanted to refine a substitute puppet and needed the same flesh and blood for research.

No one doubted him.

All doubts were suppressed deep in his heart at this moment when he was at the peak of his career.

With the approval of the Golden Core Ancestor, who would dare to doubt it? Ning Houjun and Ning Youfu expressed their appreciation, thinking that Ning Zhuo's cultivation was too low and weak, only at the third level of Qi Refining, and he had to master some means to save his life.

Ning Youfu even gave Ning Zhuo a talisman: "This is a substitute talisman. I give it to you to study carefully. Remember to return it to me after you have made some progress."

The substitute talisman can take the place of the monk's body at a critical moment. If used well, it can save a life.

Resources and treasures that can save lives have always been the most expensive.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Ning Youfu values ​​Ning Zhuo's future and does not hesitate to take out his own life-saving item and give it to Ning Zhuo for research, in order to show his goodwill.

Ning Zhuo's rise was so fast that it was beyond imagination.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the former patriarch had to speed up his investment. Otherwise, when Ning Zhuo was truly fully grown, the cost of investing and showing goodwill would be much higher, or he might not even have the opportunity.

Ning Zhuo never thought that he would have such an unexpected gain.

Immediately, he secretly decided that such a good thing must be kept.

"The research on substitute puppets is too difficult."

"Is it not too much for me to study for ten or eight years?"

The loss of Ye Fengroutie did not hinder Ning Zhuo from continuing to refine the Jindan-level mechanical monkey.

His popularity has grown greatly, and by cooperating with the Zhou and Zheng families, he can make an even bigger voice.

Ning Zhuo outsourced all the dirty and tiring work and leveraged the power of the three righteous families in Huoshi Xiancheng to refine treasures for him on a massive scale.

"This young man named Ning Zhuo is indeed interesting." Zhou Nongying said.

"No wonder even that sinister and cunning guy like Fei Si recognized it." Zheng Danlian said with a smile.

Ning Jusuan just smiled and said nothing.

Ning Zhuo's affair caused a storm in the Ning family, and the aftermath also affected the Zhou family and the Zheng family. Recently, Ning Zhuo has become the most outstanding figure in the righteous path.

The source of all this was just a word from Ning Jufan.

Ning Zhuo's affairs, in the eyes of the Jindan ancestors, were at most interesting and a pastime for after-dinner conversation.

"The Yefengrou iron has been inspected and there is no problem. It has also been preliminarily processed. Everyone, get ready to refine it!" Zheng Shuanggou said.

The Jindan ancestors chose an auspicious time and sat in the center of the magic circle.

The light of the Tiangong Lantern suddenly became brighter!

The vast and endless earth fire is purified through the magic circle, eliminating all fire evil, poison gas, and turbid air, and infused into the Tiangong Lamp.

The flame of the lamp suddenly grew seven times larger, from the size of a finger to the size of a cup.

The Jindan cultivator's consciousness penetrated deep into the lamp flames and was consumed by the burning.

The flame of the lamp may seem small, but it actually hides the universe, with the power of Mount Sumeru and mustard seed. The flame of the lamp is a sea of ​​fire! No matter how fiercely the red flame burns, the mechanical weapons are like ancient giant snakes and remain unruly.

The two Jindan cultivators of the Zheng family took action one after another and performed weapon refining spells.

A volcano rose up from the sea of ​​fire, towering majestically, suppressing the mechanical weapons inside the mountain.

The flames outside the mountain surged in and turned into red lights when they rushed into the mountain.

The red light scorched, causing the mechanical weapons inside the mountain to gradually soften.

One after another, Jindan-level materials were filled into the volcano, transformed into streams of five-colored smoke, and integrated into the bodies of mechanical weapons.

The last one - Night Wind Soft Iron! The molten iron was poured over, mixed with the smoke, and quickly took shape, completely filling the gaps in the mechanical weapons.

However, the black snake roared and resisted strongly. It turned its body and pointed its head backwards, trying to bite the vital point.

"You evil creature! Are you still going to be untied and surrender?" Zheng Shuanggou roared and used all his strength to cast spells.

The flames formed into chains, binding the black snake tightly.

The head of the Zheng family stepped into the outer magic circle and exerted his talent with all his strength - a thousand hammers and a hundred tempers! In the lantern world, the red flames condensed into hammer heads, swarming in, wrapping the black snake, and hammering down continuously.

Bang, bang, bang…

With every blow, the black snake's resistance was reduced a little, and the fire hammer collapsed.

After thousands of times of hammering, the black snake collapsed to the ground, but the snake head still looked ferocious and unruly.

Zheng Shuanggou's face was covered in sweat. He put down the controls, quickly sat down cross-legged, and swallowed pills to replenish his energy.

Zheng Danjian took on the heavy responsibility alone, ignited the flames, and continued to refine mechanical weapons.

The black snake exuded a thick shadow all over its body, swaying like a willow branch, easily resisting the raging flames.

Seeing this, Zhu Xuanji's eyes flashed with gold: "This seems to be an old item from the Yeyu Dynasty! You are so scheming, you want me, a member of the royal family of the Nandou Kingdom and the Divine Capture Department, to help you refine prohibited items!"

Zhou Nongying smiled and said, "Master Zhu, what you said is inappropriate. As far as I know, the Nandou Dynasty did not strictly prohibit the old items of Yeyu."

Zhu Xuanji looked serious and snorted coldly: "Although the Night Rain Demonic Soldiers are extremely powerful, they are also very evil and often devour their masters. If we are not careful, they will become the culprit for our failure. This weapon cannot be used!"
