However, Chen Xingzhen didn't expect Chen Qingyu to learn it so quickly.
Even though Chen Qingyu had a rather cold personality, she felt somewhat uncomfortable when she saw Chen Xingzhen's satisfied look.
After all, the reason he was able to learn so quickly was not because of himself, but because of the sacred tree.
Chen Qingyu did not explain. Anyway, he was not going to take up the top three spots in the clan. So he just let the misunderstanding be.
"This seems to be Taizu Changquan!"
"Brother Qingyu is truly a genius. He learned it in just one day."
…
Chen Qingyu could only pretend he didn't hear the praises from his tribesmen.
After dealing with Li Cailiang, Chen Xingzhen, who was still a little worried, checked the sacred tree carefully again. Seeing that the sacred tree was indeed not damaged, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Then Chen Xingzhen remembered the secret passage and immediately issued an order:
"Tian Jing, you and Qing Yu should bring a few more clansmen into the secret passage to check for any loopholes. Also, check if there are any other members of the Li family outside the secret passage."
Although this secret passage is no longer a family secret, it is still another passage for the family and must not be lost. It needs to be dealt with as soon as possible.
Looking at the damage done to the ancestral hall, there was a hint of regret in Chen Xingzhen's eyes.
He knew that the remaining members of the Li family had gone to the mass grave, but he did not take any precautions.
Although the chance of this happening is relatively small, he should have considered it at the beginning.
After all, it was my own carelessness that almost caused the family sacred tree to be destroyed.
Fortunately, the sacred tree is still there and has not been damaged.
Although he wanted to chase and kill them, he thought that Li Yongcheng and the others had already gone away and would not stay there waiting.
As there was a blue wolf at the innate realm deep in the Mass Burial Mountain, Chen Xingzhen had to give up and told the others not to pursue it any further.
After everything was tidied up, Chen Xingzhen looked towards the sacred tree in front of him and sighed in his heart.
Or maybe the family power is too weak.
But family development is not something that can be achieved quickly.
All big families have to be passed down for decades or even hundreds of years before they can reach a certain size, let alone the Chen family today, which does not even have a single innate warrior.
Above, looking at the Chen family members cleaning up the mess, Ji Yang finally felt relaxed.
The situation just now was still quite dangerous. He has not yet fully grown up. If a warrior in the Blood Coagulation Realm gets close to him, there is a high possibility that the tree will be destroyed and people will die. Moreover, Li Cailiang is still in the late Blood Coagulation Realm.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, he strengthened one of his roots again and was able to block the attack.
Fortunately, Li Cailiang did not risk his life, otherwise the situation would be different.
The strengthening of the four roots just now consumed a total of 7.5 of Ji Yang's vitality, causing his life force to fall below ten points again.
In order to maintain his own sensitivity and state, Ji Yang directly converted all the energy and blood that he had reserved before, which replenished his vitality again.
However, this also gave Ji Yang a new sense of crisis.
This time it was an accident, but the current strength of the Chen family cannot guarantee that there won’t be an accident next time.
He still needs to become stronger, and he also needs to make the Chen family stronger and have the ability to deal with risks.
If there was no other option, he could only communicate with Chen Xingzhen through his roots.
At least from his current perspective, the Chen family still has major flaws in its family development. If it continues like this, it is unknown how long it will take for the family to develop.
Originally, Ji Yang didn't want to get too involved in family affairs. After all, he just wanted to be a tree!
While enjoying the family sacrifices, it would be nice to lend a hand occasionally.
If he has to do everything himself, he might as well be the patriarch.
Although he was a little anxious, he was not in a rush. Ji Yang planned to wait until the fruits on the tree were ripe.
After Li Cailiang's death, Ji Yang also saw a new soul appear in the ancestral hall.
This living soul is a replica of Li Cailiang, except that its face is dull and it has no consciousness, not much different from other living souls.
It’s just that this body is more intense and in better condition than the many living souls that Ji Yang had transformed in the spirit tablet before.
Looking at the living soul in front of him, Ji Yang's consciousness moved, and the living soul was quickly absorbed by Ji Yang.
This is a new ability that Ji Yang gained after his race changed, so that he no longer needs to use roots as a medium between himself and the living soul.
Ji Yang used his magical power to condense his soul, trying to transform it.
But then, a prompt suddenly popped up in front of Ji Yang:
[Already bound to the family, other souls other than the Chen family cannot be gathered. 】
This hint made Ji Yang stunned for a moment. Emotions have such limitations. How can he organize his army of living souls?
He was counting on this to make the Chen family stronger! Now it seems that it is not going to work.
Seeing that Li Cailiang's soul was useless, the branches of Ji Yang's tree swayed slightly, creating a breeze. When the breeze blew, Li Cailiang's soul instantly dissipated and turned into a ball of thick yin energy, which was absorbed by Ji Yang's trunk.
After absorbing the Yin energy, the gray fruits on the tree seemed to have grown a little bigger.
At this moment, Chen Xingzhen was still waiting in the ancestral hall for his clansmen to return. At the moment when Li Cailiang's soul disappeared, Chen Xingzhen also felt a cool breeze blowing across his face.
This made Chen Xingzhen look confused. After all, he was a warrior in the late stage of blood coagulation. How could he feel such a chill?
Chen Xingzhen turned his head to look at the family sacred tree in front of him, and then he noticed the changes in the appearance of the sacred tree. However, Chen Xingzhen's expression remained normal.
He was used to the ever-changing nature of the sacred tree.
Half an hour later, Chen Qingyu and others returned from the secret passage.
When they returned, they were carrying several ferocious beasts.
According to Chen Tianjing, the bluestone outside the secret passage had been moved away, and there were a lot of traces left in the secret passage, but outside the secret passage, there were very few traces.
Moreover, when the few people passed by, they saw several ferocious beasts outside the secret passage.
Unfortunately, the realms of these ferocious beasts were not high, and the strongest one was only in the middle stage of the blood coagulation realm. In addition, these ferocious beasts attacked each other, making it easy for Chen Qingyu and others to kill them.
After killing the ferocious beast, several people checked the surroundings and found no trace of the Li family members.
Finally, after cleaning up the secret passage, they moved the bluestone back and reinforced it before leaving.
After listening to Chen Tianjing's report, Chen Xingzhen carefully checked the ferocious beasts that were brought back from hunting. After smelling a special smell, Chen Xingzhen's eyes became clear.
Thyme, this is something unique to the Li family.
It seems that these ferocious beasts were attracted by Li Cailiang. Unfortunately, there is now a blue wolf in the innate realm deep in the Burial Mountain, and even the ferocious beasts outside the secret passage have decreased a lot. Even this thyme cannot attract too many ferocious beasts, but instead allows the family to gain this.
"Okay, it's getting late, you guys go back and rest."
"As for these ferocious beasts, sacrifice them all to the sacred tree."
Ji Yang’s roots had also been discovered by Chen Xingzhen before. This was an ability that the sacred tree had never demonstrated before. It seemed that the sacred tree had consumed a lot this time and was in urgent need of replenishment.
Above, Ji Yang nodded silently after hearing this:
"You are sensible!"
