Chapter 118 Facing a choice (please subscribe!)
  Xu family treasure house, in front of the gate.

Seeing his grandfather slowly opening the protective formation outside the treasure house with the token, Xu Zhiyu was very excited because he knew that there must be a lot of things inside.

I had only heard my grandfather and ancestor mention this family treasure house more than once before, but he had never been there even once.

If it weren't for the purpose of choosing the second-level low-grade magic weapon that his ancestor promised him this time, he wouldn't have the chance to come here.

This family treasure house has existed since the founding of the clan. It was established by the first generation of ancestors. It contains precious exercises, magic weapons, spiritual minerals, elixirs, etc. collected by the family over the generations. It is one of the most important places in the family. It must be built in the most secretive place. Generally speaking, it must be underground.

However, Xu's treasure house is different. He opened a passage from the back of the family ancestral hall, diagonally down to the bottom of the peak, and it was about a hundred feet long.

The existence of the family treasure trove is unknown to ordinary clan members. It is a family secret and only the top family members are aware of it.

Although there is no guard here, there are also third-level mid-level formations for protection. Unlike the large formations such as the clan protection formation, although the protection range of the protective formations here is smaller, it also means that the protection ability is stronger. , I heard that even if the monks of the Zifu attack, they can't break through it for a moment. This is where the Xu family's deepest foundation lies.

Not only that, there are many restrictions in the passage leading here. He was able to pass smoothly because of his grandfather's guidance. He can imagine that if an outsider breaks into this place without permission, he will probably be strangled to death by these restrictions. You must know this But it was arranged by the founder of the Xu family, who was a genuine late-stage cultivator of the Zifu.

It takes a lot of effort to open it. The sign that Xu Shengsheng used to open the treasure house door just now is not an ordinary thing.

It contains not only the essence and blood of hundreds of clan members, but also the magic power of ten family foundation-building monks. Of course, this is not the foundation-building monks of the same generation, but can be formed by the combined efforts of several generations of monks. He will definitely be required to do this in the future. Do it, just not now.

The treasure house was opened, and Xu Zhiyu followed his grandfather slowly inside. What he saw were not piles of spiritual stones or dazzling magic weapons, but dozens of different wooden frames placed in the hollowed-out cave. , there are different spiritual objects placed on each shelf, and there is a light mask covering the spiritual objects.

Xu Shengsheng led Xu Zhiyu forward and introduced:
  "The wooden shelves on the left are filled with exercises collected by the family, ranging from first-level exercises to third-level exercises. There are hundreds of first-level exercises and dozens of second-level exercises. This book, but there are only eleven books that can really be cultivated to the ninth level of foundation building, and the rest are incomplete."

"What is placed on the last wooden shelf is the "Yangang Jue" which was handed down from our ancestors and is mainly based on the earth attribute, and the "Fire Soul Control Jue" which you handed in is mainly based on the fire attribute!"

Xu Zhiyu nodded while listening. He felt that his grandfather seemed to be very familiar with this place, and he also knew all kinds of treasures. It seemed that he had been here many times before.

"The shelves on the right are filled with elixirs. They are all packed in special jade boxes with restrictions on the outside. They are all relatively precious second-level elixirs. If you want to be short of alchemy elixirs in the future, You can come here and look for it!”

"As for the rare minerals on these shelves, they were all obtained by the tribesmen from past generations when they traveled or picked up leaks. They were all exchanged by the family with contribution points and placed here. The most precious of them is a piece of fourth-level spiritual mineral-dark gold. Coral, this object has an extremely strong attraction to the water attribute golden elixir monks, but the family is too weak and dare not trade it, so it has always been kept here."

Xu Zhiyu secretly smacked his lips when he heard this. He didn't expect that the family still had such precious spiritual materials, but it was right not to take them out. Those high-level monks were extremely greedy. If someone was coveting them, killing people and seizing the treasures would be enough. If you take it lightly, you might even destroy your family!

"As for the magic weapons, they are on the last few shelves. Most of them are first-level magic weapons. However, those that can be received by the family are all treasures. Many of them are accidentally dropped when refining second-level magic weapons fail. Although they are not truly second-level magic weapons, they are much stronger than ordinary first-level magic weapons."

"These magic weapons are expensive, and each one requires thousands of family contribution points, so there are very few members of the clan who will redeem them. However, in order to cope with this beast tide, it is estimated that the family will release part of it to the family monks to strengthen their strength!"

As for why not all of them were issued, Xu Zhiyu can guess in his heart. This is definitely not because the family is stingy and reluctant to part with it, but because this kind of magical weapon is between the first and second levels. Without deep magic power, it is impossible to control it. , he probably has to practice qi to a perfect level before he can barely use it, but how many members of the Xu family have a perfect qi level? No more than ten at most!
  "On the tallest and largest shelf are third-level magic weapons, which were all refined when the founder of the mountain was still alive. Including the third-level low-grade magic weapon that the ancestor is using now - the Taixu Sword, was also taken from here!"

"But this time I brought you here mainly to see the second-level low-grade attack weapons. They are all on this wooden stand. You can choose and see for yourself!"

Xu Shengsheng led Xu Zhiyu to stand in front of a wooden frame, and then said softly.

Xu Zhiyu looked at the simple wooden frame in front of him and found that there were more than a dozen light masks of different colors on it. Under each light mask was a magical weapon, including swords, guns, swords, halberds, axes, axes, hooks and forks.

There was a jade slip placed next to the mask, which should be used to introduce the performance and functions of the instrument, so he picked up the jade slip in front of him and looked at it. It was a knife-shaped magic weapon.

"The Seven-Star Sword, a second-level low-grade magical weapon, is made of cold iron gold essence as the main material. It contains many restrictions! After being activated, it can form a nine-foot-long giant sword shadow, which is enough to attack the monks in the early stages of foundation building. poses a huge threat."

After reading the introduction, Xu Zhiyu shook his head and put it back to its original place. He was not too interested in the sword. Although the jade slip came with a matching sword technique, he felt that it was too strenuous to practice and finally gave up.

"Phantom Thorn is a second-level low-grade magic weapon. It is made of Phantom Moon Silver as the main material. It has three kinds of restrictions: 'sharp', 'armor-breaking', and 'shadow'. It has three edges on it. After being stimulated, it will transform into multiple forms." The phantom makes it difficult for the enemy to judge reality from reality!" This was a good idea, but he didn't decide on it.

Annihilation Axe, Shocking Divine Spear, Five Elements Halberd, Three-pronged Fork. He basically looked at all the second-level low-grade magic weapons on this shelf.

In addition to the phantom thorn in front of him, he also had his eye on a magical weapon called the 'Haoran Sword', which put him in a dilemma. He didn't know which one to choose?
  He turned his attention to his grandfather who was standing aside, hoping that he could give him some advice.

Unexpectedly, Xu Shengqi said that the principles of magic weapons should not be copied by others, and the best one suits him. Then he closed his eyes and wandered into the world.

Xu Zhiyu found that his grandfather's attitude toward him seemed to have changed since he established the foundation. In the past, his grandfather always liked to make decisions for him, but now he seems not to do so anymore. He always lets him figure out his own solutions to problems.

After much hesitation, Xu Zhiyu chose Phantom Thorn. Although he also liked flying swords, he felt that his swordsmanship talent was average. In the past, he only knew how to stab and slash randomly against enemies, which was completely unorganized, so he chose Phantom Thorn.

"Grandpa, I've made my choice!" After he made up his mind, he said to his grandfather beside him.

"Okay, then I will take it out for you!"

Without any extra words, Xu Shengsheng directly took out the token and swiped it at the mask, and the mask slowly disappeared, revealing the phantom thorn.

When Xu Zhiyu saw the light shield disappearing, he directly put the magic weapon into the storage bag without his grandfather's instructions.

He originally thought that this trip to the family treasure house should have ended here. He was about to leave with his grandfather, but Xu Shengsheng spoke:

"Yu'er, in fact, this time I came to the family treasure house, choosing a magic weapon for you is just one of the reasons. What's more important is that I'm here for it!"

Xu Zhiyu looked at the place pointed by his grandfather. He remembered that his grandfather had introduced that all the family secrets were collected there. He was a little puzzled.

Xu Shengsheng didn't say much, but walked straight to the location just pointed out. After opening the mask with a token, he took out a jade slip from it, turned it back, and handed it to Xu Zhiyu.

"Let's take a look, there will be a surprise!" Xu Shengsheng said mysteriously.

He took the jade slip and gently pressed it to his forehead.

"The Divine Eclipse Thorn is an ancient secret technique. It is unknown who created it. I obtained it from an ancient monk's cave. However, the threshold for cultivation was too high, so I left it to the family treasure trove for future generations to have those who are qualified to practice this secret technique!"

"The practice of this technique is extremely dangerous. Those who do not have the strength of their spiritual consciousness must not practice it!"

Xu Zhiyu didn't expect that this was what the founding ancestor had gained from an unexpected encounter. It was a secret technique that used divine consciousness. Specifically, it was how to use divine consciousness to attack the enemy.

However, after reading all the content, he also felt that the threshold for practicing this technique was too high. It required practitioners to have at least 70% more spiritual consciousness than others before they could practice it. This requirement was too harsh. He estimated that this secret technique, From the time the founder got it until now, no one has ever mastered it.

But he is different. Because he has started practicing the God-forging Technique, his spiritual consciousness is 80% stronger than others, which just meets the training requirements. This secret technique seems to be tailor-made for him!

"This secret technique is not free. It requires 30,000 contribution points to redeem it!" His grandfather's voice rang in his ears.

"I didn't say anything, change it!" Did he think there was any reason to encounter a treasure mountain and return empty-handed?
  Originally, he thought that his spiritual consciousness was so powerful that it could only control a few more magic weapons and anticipate the enemy's surprises. However, he did not expect that his family actually had such a wonderful collection of secret techniques. How could he do it for a mere thirty thousand? What if the family contributes a little and lets him slip away from his hands?
  He handed the family token to his grandfather, and after he deducted the family contribution points, they left together.
