After successfully overcoming the tribulation and happily enjoying the congratulations from his fellow disciples, Gong Zhuo happily returned to his cave.
Perhaps to prevent the furnace explosion from affecting others, they all lived in caves at Jianqi Peak, and they had set up many protective and soundproof formations. In any case, no matter how the explosion happened inside, it would not affect outsiders.
They could choose to build their own cave or live in the one left by their predecessors, but Tiefeng Master suggested that they live in the existing one for the time being. After all, the existing ones had been tempered through thousands of trials and tribulations and were very resistant to explosions.
As soon as Gong Zhuo entered the cave, he opened all the formations and went straight into seclusion mode.
According to the inheritance given to him by Senior Feng Wuxie, now is the best time to open up a portable space.
Although he gained a lot of storage bags and storage rings after joining the Wanjian Sect, those could be stolen. Only the portable space was safe enough.
It's definitely a great place to hide some money!
But before he could carve out his own little space, he had to first see what his mother had left him.
Gong Zhuo closed his eyes and probed his spiritual sense into the space, and was then struck by a large flash of red light inside.
Fire Spirit Stones of various grades were piled up everywhere in the space. Although Fire Spirit Stones were not the universal currency in the world of cultivation, they were more valuable than ordinary Spirit Stones!
If used directly for cultivation, these would be enough for me to break through to the Void Refinement Stage!
There are more than twenty earth-grade magic weapons and seven or eight heaven-grade magic weapons in the space, a large number of daily elixirs, and even a bottle each of top-grade marrow cleansing pills, bone-shaping pills, and soul-purifying pills, as well as a Nirvana Reincarnation Pill that can only be used by the Phoenix Clan.
The Nirvana Reincarnation Pill is equivalent to the second life of the Phoenix people, and a person can only take one pill in his lifetime.
In addition, Gong Zhuo also found a letter, a piece of phoenix tree branch, a small cluster of phoenix fire, and a shelf of phoenix clan martial arts books.
What does it mean to get rich overnight? This is it!
Gong Zhuo already had backup copies of those martial arts manuals, which were directly transferred into his sea of consciousness by Feng Wuxie. They were more numerous and complete than those on the shelf.
However, there were still many books on alchemy from outside on the shelves. Gong Zhuo then realized that his mother was actually an alchemist.
Phoenix True Fire is a good thing, and the more it is fused, the better. However, when Gong Zhuo saw it, he felt hot all over, his meridians were cracked and his dantian was burning, so he quickly shifted his gaze to the side.
He picked up the piece of sycamore branch and looked at it for a long time but couldn't figure out what it was, so he put it aside for the time being.
After he had looked through everything else in the space, he carefully opened the letter.
It begins with the most common eight words: My dear son, seeing your letter is like seeing you in person.
Just these eight characters brought Gong Zhuo back to his childhood.
His mother's gentle whispers, the sunlight shining through the window, and the feeling of holding his hand while teaching him calligraphy are all still so clear.
He held the letter and continued reading, and his eyes became red again without him noticing.
It turned out that his mother remembered everything on the night he was born.
She remembered that she was the last heir of the Feng family, that her real name was Feng Pingting, and how she was deceived and hurt, and how she ended up in the wilderness.
As early as who knows how many years ago, there was no news about the Dragon Clan and the Qilin Clan on the Canglan Continent.
The Phoenix Clan didn't know whether they were hiding or had really disappeared, but in any case, they had gone into seclusion in order to avoid being coveted by the outside world.
Every generation of the Feng family stayed honestly in the mountains. When it was time to pass on the family line, they would hide their identities and come out to find a partner. After raising the child, they would go to the realm to fight demons for a few years, which was considered a contribution to the Canglan Continent.
There is no other way. They have been passing down their lineage from generation to generation for three thousand years. If they don't want to be wiped out, they have to cherish their lives and can no longer be at the forefront of everything.
The cultivation environment in Phoenix Mountain is very good. Feng Pingting reached the late Golden Core stage when she was eighteen years old.
Thinking that it would be difficult for a cultivator to have children after reaching the Nascent Soul stage, Feng Pingting packed up and went down the mountain to look for a partner.
The Feng family has a simple way of choosing a partner, just like most people. They look at appearance, talent, and character, and none of the three can be missing.
Family background is not important to them, but being alone is the best, so that it will be convenient for them to return to Phoenix Mountain.
Feng Pingting felt she had bad luck. Ever since leaving Phoenix Mountain, she'd been constantly pursued by various evil cultivators. While her Phoenix True Fire could restrain evil cultivators, her cultivation was limited. While she could only eliminate cultivators of her own level, she could only flee for her life against those in the Nascent Soul stage.
Later, she seemed to have met an unlucky guy, and she met him several times when she was escaping, which made her feel a sense of sympathy.
In addition, the man was handsome and talented, and he had helped her several times. Over time, she gradually developed feelings for him.
Everything seemed to go smoothly after that. She and the man made a vow to spend their lives together, and then she took him back to Little Phoenix Mountain.
According to the rules of the Phoenix Clan, they were not allowed to reveal their identities when traveling outside, even after getting married. Therefore, they built a small Phoenix Mountain for the descendants of the Phoenix Clan to temporarily reside after getting married. Only after the other party signed a Taoist contract with them to live and die together could they bring the other person back to Phoenix Mountain.
That person probably didn't know this rule and thought he had really arrived at Phoenix Mountain. On the wedding night, he suddenly turned against Feng Pingting and not only seriously injured her, but also wanted to take Little Phoenix Mountain for himself and collect treasures from it.
At the critical moment, Feng Pingting activated the random teleportation array and the mountain-destroying array on Little Phoenix Mountain and escaped. She was teleported to the Great Wilderness of Xizhou. Afterwards, she lost her memory and was rescued by Gong Zhuo's biological father, Gong Zhu.
At that time, Gong Zhu happened to be patrolling in the wilderness. Seeing Feng Pingting, who was disheveled and bloodstained but still stunningly beautiful, he didn't know whether he was aroused by lust or pity, but he took out a heavenly grade life-extending pill and fed it to her, which allowed her to live a few more years.
