Chapter 148 Mo Yun Jade Pendant (please subscribe!)
  After leaving seclusion, Xu Zhiyu did not rush to the family meeting hall, but took a walk on the family mountain. He spent several years practicing in a cave. He wanted to relax and relax, which would be the right path.

Not long after walking, I saw a spiritual plant - a jasper fruit tree with green leaves and green fruits. A breeze blew by, causing the tree to sway and make a metallic sound.

After walking around the tree, looking at the tree trunk that was a week thicker than before, I couldn't help but sigh:
  "It has advanced. It used to be the second-order low-grade spiritual wood, but now it has advanced to the second-order mid-grade. It seems that the upgrade of the family's spiritual veins has not only benefited the clan members, but also the flowers and plants on the clan mountain have also benefited a lot. !”

Looking up at the overripe jasper fruits on the tree with an attractive fruity aroma, Xu Zhiyu's thoughts seemed to go back to his childhood.

It was his grandfather who led him to play on the clan mountain at that time. It was the first time he saw the jasper fruit tree. He was curious and asked his grandfather. He still clearly remembered what his grandfather said at that time:
  "Yu'er, this tree is called the Jasper Fruit Tree. It blooms once every three years, bears fruit once every three years, and matures once every three years. This fruit has the effect of condensing the mana of the foundation-building monks. It is one of the three second-level spiritual plants in the family and is extremely precious. .”

Originally, when he saw the ripe jasper fruit, he wanted to beg his grandfather to pick one to satisfy his craving. However, after hearing that this was what the foundation-building monks needed, he did not speak.

Today was just the right time, and his long-cherished wish was about to be fulfilled. He no longer hesitated, and went to the top of the tree alone, found two jasper fruits that were particularly plump, and picked them off.

He did not eat it directly, but put it into his storage bag. This fruit had extraordinary effects and could not be wasted.

Then he came to the family meeting hall. Looking at the empty hall, he couldn't help but be a little surprised:
  "Could it be that when I was in seclusion, the family meeting hall changed places, otherwise there would be no way that no one would be here!"

While he was muttering in his mind, a voice came from behind:

"Zhiyu, are you out of seclusion?"

He could hear it without turning around. It was the voice of Grandpa Xu Shengxiao, the sixteenth grandfather. The two of them had lived and died together in Taishi Town for more than half a year, and they had long been very familiar with each other. He turned around and saluted:

"Grandpa Sixteen, are you out of seclusion too?"

Xu Shengxiao first found a chair and sat down, then motioned for Xu Zhiyu to sit opposite him, and then said with a smile:

"Well, half a year after my family's spiritual pulse was promoted, I successfully broke through to the seventh level of foundation building, and then I was released!"

His ability to successfully break through to the late stage of foundation building is closely related to the promotion of his family's spiritual veins and the support from the spiritual tide. The reason why his family's spiritual veins can be promoted is the person in front of him who has the greatest contribution.

"Congratulations to Grandpa Sixteen, you are one step closer to the road to immortality!" Xu Zhiyu congratulated.

"You boy, I think you have also succeeded in practicing the cultivation method, right? We are all happy together!" Xu Shengxiao joked.

"Hey!" Xu Zhiyu smiled slightly and asked:

"Grandpa Sixteen, why is this family meeting hall so empty? Has the family meeting hall changed location?"

Xu Shengxiao smiled and shook his head and said:

"No, it's just that all the clan members have gone out to hunt monsters. I was originally leading the team, but today my term expired and your grandfather replaced me, so I came back."

Hearing Xu Shengxiao talk about the beast tide, Xu Zhiyu also became serious and asked:

"Grandpa Sixteen, what's the situation with the beast tide now? Is there another monster attacking Clan Mountain?"

"Don't be nervous, most of the monsters have evacuated now, and the ones wandering around Jincheng Mansion are just stragglers!"

"Evacuated? Why is that? Aren't they setting up camp and preparing to confront Baiyimen for a long time?"

Xu Zhiyu was puzzled. He was withdrawing now. Could it be? "Yes, withdraw. We were all deceived by the monsters. They came to attack the southern foot of the Hengduan Mountains with great fanfare. The senior monks of the Lingxiao Sect made a mistake in their judgment and sent a large number of disciples to support them. Unexpectedly, after the monsters contained enough strength of the Lingxiao Sect, they suddenly The first five level demon kings launched a fierce attack on the northern foot of the Hengduan Mountains."

"There is insufficient defense there, and the monsters are overwhelming. The Muli Kingdom and the Ancient Qiang Kingdom at the northern foot were both occupied by monsters. Even Yizhou and Qianzhou in our Qin State fell into the hands of monsters!"

Sure enough, Xu Zhiyu thought, he was shocked for a while, and then he answered:
  "So, our Qin State no longer has an inch of land to establish itself at the northern foot of the Hengduan Mountains! What a heavy loss!"

"Yes, the Lingxiao Sect was furious, and all the disciples came out to launch violent revenge on the monsters that came from the Nanlu Beast Tide. Most of the monsters in all the border counties have been wiped out."

"At the same time, he ordered the forces under his command to kill all the remaining monsters without leaving any survivors. That's why the ancestor ordered me, your grandfather, and Zheng Ji, who has recovered from his injuries, to take turns leading the team to destroy the monsters."

After listening, Xu Zhiyu realized that so many major events had happened during his retreat, but fortunately the family had little influence. He was very restless and wanted to move his hands and feet, so he asked Xu Shengxiao:
  "Grandpa Sixteen, now that I have completed my cultivation, I should be able to contribute to the family. Why don't I join the family to hunt monsters?"

Xu Shengxiao stroked his gray beard that reached his chest and said to him with a smile:
  "I can't make the decision on this. You should go to the Ancestor's Cave on the top of the mountain to ask for his instructions, right? But it shouldn't be a big problem. You haven't been to the Ancestor's Cave yet, right? You just want to go and see him this time!"

"In addition, the family's foundation-building caves halfway up the mountain have increased from the original four to eight. The four newly opened caves are just a few miles to the right of the original caves. You can go take a look when you have free time and choose one for future practice. The cave!"

"Thank you Grandpa Shiliu for your teachings. After I visit my ancestor, I must go and choose carefully!"

He was naturally very happy when he heard that he was going to get a new cave. The original cave was too small, and the spiritual energy emitted from the spiritual vein nodes could not meet his cultivation needs.

Let me explain here, the caves opened on the spiritual veins are usually opened at nodes. These nodes are different in size and the amount of spiritual energy they emit is also different. The caves are also divided into different grades based on this.

"Okay, then go ahead. I still have to be on duty here. If a clan member who goes out to eliminate demons comes to ask for help, I can respond quickly!"

"Thank you for your hard work, Grandpa Sixteen. I'll take my leave now!"

After coming out of the family meeting hall, Xu Zhiyu went directly to the top of the mountain with his sword. Looking up, there was nothing except the cave that was covered by the formation standing in front of him.

He gently touched the device on the formation that was equivalent to a doorbell, and then waited patiently.

About a quarter of an hour later, a road appeared in the middle of the formation guarding the cave, allowing only one person to pass, and Xu Zhiyu slowly walked forward.

After entering the cave, before he could carefully appreciate and compare the differences between the caves of the Zifu monks and the caves of the Foundation-building monks, the ancestor sitting on the futon had already spoken:

"Yu'er, come forward!"

"Yes, Ancestor!" Xu Zhiyu stepped forward quickly and saluted Xu Deming on the altar.

"Well, that's good. The transformation of the technique has been completed and the magic power is running smoothly."

Xu Deming first gave a few words of praise, and then changed the topic:
  "However, your spiritual consciousness is too prominent and difficult to hide. If you are seen by a monk who is a level higher than you, you will be noticed at a glance. If you are targeted by a monk with ill intentions, your life may be in danger. !”

Xu Zhiyu was a little troubled. Zhao Tao had vaguely mentioned this kind of thing to him before, but he didn't know what to do! He smiled bitterly and said:
  "The ancestor has a clear vision, but my great-grandson can't do anything about it!"

Xu Deming looked at his frowning great-grandson, smiled, then took out a jade pendant from his storage bag, held it in front of him with magic power, and said:
  "This is the Moyun Jade Pendant. It is a thing left by the founder of the mountain. You also know that the ancestor was a casual cultivator, so he attaches great importance to hiding himself. This treasure was obtained when he was exploring a high-level secret realm. This object has no benefit to your practice, but it has a miraculous effect in hiding your own magic power and spiritual consciousness. It is a rare treasure. Now I will give it to you. After wearing it with you, no one under the Nascent Soul can detect the abnormality of your spiritual consciousness. thing!"

Xu Zhiyu thought to himself, isn't this the case of falling asleep and encountering a pillow? It was great. After thanking my ancestor, I wore it around my waist.
