As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Tianya took a few steps forward, crossed the patio and entered the back bedroom in a few breaths.

Zhang Tianya, who had looked a bit senile when she led her descendants up the mountain, now has legs and feet that are not in good shape at all.

The Zhang Family Ancestral Hall is a five-entry courtyard built halfway up the mountain. The back bedroom is the main hall located in the fourth entrance. There are layers of spiritual tablets placed in the middle of the hall, and hundreds of candles are burning on the left and right sides.

There are white jade lanterns. However, at this moment, one of the twelve life lanterns placed in the highest row on the right side has been extinguished, and two of the many life lanterns at the bottom have also lost their light.

Zhang Tianya stood in front of a life lamp engraved with 'Zhiyu' with a sad face, and asked in a deep voice: "Bi Qi, Bi Xun, how long ago did this happen? Did the life lamps of Zhiyu and the others go out at the same time?

"

"Just now, the life lamps of Elder Zhiyu, Bijue, and Biyong were almost extinguished at the same time, within one breath of time. We were just refueling in the temple when we saw the life lamps extinguished. After seeing the names of the three people clearly

I wanted to activate the Mysterious Spiritual Bead immediately

Report, but I sensed the elder's aura, so I came to report to you first." Bi Qi was one step ahead of Bi Xun, and when he heard Zhang Tianya asked, he quickly responded loudly, and also wanted to say why he didn't activate Xuangan immediately.

Lingzhu informed the clan leader and other elders.

"You two go and bring the child in front of the gatehouse first." Zhang Tianya said in a deep voice. She took out a lavender spirit bead and crushed it.

"Yes." The two agreed immediately, turned around and crossed the threshold, looking for the children.

"Nearly extinguished at the same time! With Zhiyu's cultivation in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, and with a few talismans on his body, he can deal with them even if he encounters a monk who has completed Foundation Establishment. As for Bijue and Biyong, this situation

He might not be able to save the two of them next time.

But if the three of them died together, I wonder if it was Zhiyu who was careless and the three of them were ambushed and killed by other monks, or if a high-level monk took action and killed them with thunder, then it would be troublesome?" Zhang Tianya sighed.

said the voice.

Just when two young monks from the Zhang family, Bi Qi and Bi Xun, ran out in a hurry, Zhang Shiping, who was more than a hundred miles away, was walking out of the door of the insect chamber. He paused and put the jade belt around his waist.

After touching it, he took out a rectangular brocade box and opened the lid with a snap. There were two rows of six light red jade tablets in the box.

There was a "click", and one of the jade tablets split into two halves, and the word "Zhiyu" engraved on it was split vertically from the middle.

Zhang Shiping didn't feel any sadness. He took the broken jade token out of the brocade box without changing his expression, then closed the brocade box and put it into the storage jade belt.

He held the jade plaque in silence and looked toward the southeast, with a hint of contemplation on his face.

After more than ten breaths, Zhang Shiping turned over his hand and took out a lavender round bead. The spiritual bead was shining brightly. He immediately turned into a blue rainbow and flew towards the Chongling Mountains a hundred miles away.

About a quarter of an hour later, Zhang Shiping flew over the Chongling Mountains. With a sweep of his consciousness, he suddenly appeared in front of the gate of the back bedroom of the ancestral hall.

"Heng Yun, Tian Wu, you are here too." Zhang Shiping walked into the hall and saw two people standing next to Zhang Tianya in front of the life lamp.

"Ancestor." The three of them said at the same time.

Although Zheng Hengyun and Zhang Tianwu have formed elixirs, they still refer to Zhang Shiping as their ancestors, while Zhang Tianya is still just a foundation-building monk, and is a step below Zhang Shiping in terms of seniority and cultivation. It is normal to call him this way.

"Have you checked the life lantern? How is the situation?" Zhang Shiping strode forward, looked at the life lantern and asked.

"It took less than a breath for Zhiyu and the three of them to have their life lamps extinguished. I'm worried that he encountered a golden elixir or Nascent Soul monk and was poisoned, otherwise there would be no room for resistance. As for the life lamps, I

He and Tian Wu have just arrived and haven’t checked yet." Zheng Hengyun responded.

"What's the general situation? Let's take a look first." Zhang Shiping walked to the three extinguished life lamps respectively, and put his sword fingers on the lamps, each drawing out a wisp of gray smoke, swirling in the air, and forming a

Smoke painting.

There is a valley in the painting, and there are three figures made of smoke walking in the valley, and there are more than ten vague figures around them.

At this moment, a gray light suddenly appeared all around. It shot out from nowhere and cut off six or seven people around it. As soon as the others made a move, they also disintegrated into smoke the next moment.

The entire smoke painting turned upside down, and a tiger-like lion-like demon beast transformed from the smoke was seen approaching, and then everything became chaotic and blurred.

After reading it, Zhang Shiping waved his sleeves to disperse the smoke.

"Zhang Guo is only four thousand miles away from Binhai City. Zhiyu is taking Bijue and Biyong with him. Although the speed of escape will be slower, it won't take three months to get things done. It seems that he met him halfway.

Together with other monks, they accidentally entered a certain

It’s the lair of a big monster. However, there are only seven foundation-building families known to Zhang Guo, and there is no third-level spiritual land. How can there be a big monster entrenched here, and it doesn’t look like this monster has just broken through?”

Zhang Tianwu frowned and said.

"Including Zhiyu, there are seventeen people in total. Since Zhiyu will take Bijue and Biyong with him, it means that he thinks that there is not much danger in the valley, and with his cultivation level, he can completely take care of the two refiners.

Qi period juniors. The fourteen people traveling with them should be in a similar situation. Maybe each of them will bring a few juniors with them. In this way, five of these people

It’s just six foundation-building monks. That monster can kill these people in a matter of seconds. Although it’s a bit unexpected, it should be at the middle stage of the great monster, maybe in the later stage.” Zheng Hengyun said while using his fingers to draw pictures.

, used mana to condense the smoke painting just now, shot the monster twice, killed those people, and demonstrated it again.

It can be said that from the moment this monster appeared to the end, it was just a turning movement. It only took one or two breaths to kill all the monks in the valley. But I don’t know if these people had used defensive magic weapons or used their magic power in advance.

The shield, the remnants of the life lamp, cannot be seen.

This scene is what Zhiyu and his family saw in the moments before they were born, and there is only an approximate view of it.

Of course, Zhang Shiping and Zheng Hengyun, two real people who have been cultivating alchemy for a long time, each of the foundation-building monks of the Zhang family, as well as some of the more potential late-stage Qi refining monks, each have something to pursue. Zhang Shiping vaguely felt that he had left behind

The thing he is looking for is in the southeast, but where exactly it is, he has to be closer, about a hundred miles in radius, in order to feel it more clearly.

As for the method of dividing the soul to protect the younger generation, it requires cultivation at the Nascent Soul stage, and the two of them have not yet reached that state.

"It doesn't matter, it will be fine in the middle and later stages. Zhiyu went to Zhang Kingdom because of my order, but I want to go and see what kind of monster it is? As for the two of you, Tianwu is still consolidating his own cultivation, which is not good for

Casting spells and fighting, Heng Yun, you can stay in the clan for the rest of your life!" Zhang Shiping said, shaking his head lightly.

"Then this square of blood-refined jade is what I have left for my ancestors. When we arrive in Zhang Kingdom, it would be best for our ancestors not to go to the valley immediately. We should first go to the seven foundation-building families in Zhang Kingdom to understand what they are.

Situation. There are not many foundation-building monks in the secular world. Those foundation-building monks who traveled with Zhiyu may be from these families, and they may have some clues!" Zheng Hengyun said. He turned over his hand and took out a square sapphire the size of a fist, among which

There is a blood bead condensed in the jade body.
