Rebirth of Devouring Dragon Emperor

Chapter 254 The Jiang family’s true heirloom!

Jiang Yuanshan took Ye Qing to the back mountain, and Jiang Feng and a few others followed.

On the way, Jiang Yuanshan introduced the situation to Ye Qing.

"Senior, what I want to show you is actually a stone."

Jiang Yuanshan said, "It was a huge rock that was about one person tall and required two people to hug. It didn't look that big, but it weighed tens of thousands of kilos. According to family records, even the strongest person in the family couldn't move it at all, not even to make it tremble."

"According to family records, there have been several large earthquakes in the past. There was even one time when the cave collapsed. However, the stone remained motionless. It is impossible to estimate its weight."

"It is rumored that this huge stone came from outer space. Our Jiang family's ancestor was originally an ordinary villager nearby. He saw a meteor falling and chased it. He found that it was this stone. After getting close to it, energy suddenly entered his body and he became extremely powerful. That's how he embarked on the path of cultivation."

"After that, our ancestors took the boulder as their own, filled up the hole created by the boulder, and secretly dug a cave, hiding the entrance very well. From then on, they relied on the boulder to practice and became stronger and stronger."

"Then, the ancestor relied on brute force to obtain cultivation techniques and resources, and brought the rest of the Jiang family on the path of cultivation, and step by step, made the entire family strong."

"And the Jiang family also moved their entire family to the place above where the boulder fell. They passed it down and never moved again."

Jiang Yuanshan paused for a moment and said, "It can be said that the reason why our Jiang family is what it is today is because of that boulder."

"If it weren't for it, our ancestors wouldn't have had the opportunity to practice, and the Jiang family wouldn't have become a family of practitioners, and their legacy wouldn't have been extinct until today."

Ye Qing was deeply surprised when he heard this.

"That stone can emit energy and be absorbed by people?"

Ye Qing asked.

"Yes."

Jiang Yuanshan nodded and replied: "The energy emitted by the stone is harmless and can be absorbed. Practicing near the stone will be at least a lifetime faster than practicing in other places."

Ye Qing turned and glanced at him.

"Your Jiang family's skills are not that bad. With this stone to help you, is this all you have?"

Ye Qing said: "Besides, would you take out such a treasure to exchange with me? Although it is good for advancing your skills, it is not as useful as this stone, right?"

Behind Ye Qing, Chu Xian and Tang Zhen also looked confused.

Isn’t the Jiang family’s choice a bit problematic?
Shouldn't a good thing that can build up an entire family and double a person's cultivation speed be passed down from generation to generation as a family heirloom and never leaked to others?
Why is the Jiang family going to give it to Ye Qing?

Not to mention that Ye Qing saved the entire Jiang family. Before Ye Qing killed those Japanese people, the Jiang family did not say that they would give the stone to Ye Qing as a reward.

There must be something fishy in it!

As expected, after hearing Ye Qing's question, several people from the Jiang family immediately showed embarrassment on their faces.

"Are you trying to tell me that the energy of this stone has dissipated and is now useless?"

Ye Qing looked at Jiang Yuanshan's expression as if he wanted to say something but didn't know how to say it, and immediately asked.

"Uh……"

Jiang Yuanshan's expression froze, and his embarrassment became even worse.

"Senior is truly a master of foresight."

He replied awkwardly: "You know, if this stone has such a great effect, we would definitely not let outsiders know about it, let alone give it away."

"The effect of this stone has indeed weakened a lot. In fact, the energy emitted by the stone has been gradually decreasing since a long time ago. Today, it is very weak. Even if you rely on it to meditate, your cultivation speed will not be much faster."

"So, even if our ancestors said that this stone must be a treasure passed down from generation to generation in the Jiang family, I still think it's better to use it to exchange for a chance to upgrade my skills."

"According to what you said, after the level of the technique is upgraded, our training speed will be further accelerated, and the effect will be the same as this stone, so why not change it?"

"Anyway, this stone doesn't have much effect anymore, and it's getting weaker all the time. Maybe one day, it will have no energy left to emit."

Jiang Yuanshan is very honest.

He did not hide anything from Ye Qing, but told him everything honestly.

Anyway, these things can't be hidden from Ye Qing. It's meaningless to hide things from a strong man like Ye Qing, and it may also make Ye Qing disgusted. It's better to be frank and win Ye Qing's favor.

Ye Qing nodded upon hearing this.

"So, what you want to show me is actually a training auxiliary stone that has almost lost its effect?"

Ye Qing said.

"Uh……"

Jiang Yuanshan's body froze, and then he smiled bitterly and said, "Senior, I'm really not kidding you. I think that the stone is of little use to us, but it may not be the same for you. Anyway, it won't take much time for you to go down and take a look, and maybe you will gain something."

"You are different from us. We are short-sighted, but you are different. Some of your methods are beyond our reach. Perhaps you can see other uses of the stone."

"In fact, we have always felt that the role of the stone is not just to assist cultivation, and the energy inside it may not only be the energy that is actively dissipated. Its role may be very large, and the energy that is dissipated may only be a very small part."

"So, I still want you to take a look before making a decision."

After a pause, he added: "Of course, the most important thing is that I really want you to help us upgrade our skills, but apart from this stone, we can't produce any other good things that you might like."

"If I have offended you, please do not take it to heart, Senior."

Jiang Yuanshan looked sincere and bowed to Ye Qing.

"You think your ancestors could not find other uses for the stone, nor could they extract other energies from it, and could only rely on the energy it automatically radiates for cultivation. Do you think I can do that?"

Ye Qing asked leisurely: "Do you think I am more powerful than your ancestors?"

Jiang Yuanshan was embarrassed again.

After a pause, he said, "In fact, I think you may be more powerful than my ancestors. Moreover, they don't know the function of the stone, but you may not know it either."

That’s what I said!

Ye Qing stared at him for a second, until Jiang Yuanshan's forehead was sweating and the awkward smile on his face froze.

"You said that the stone weighs tens of thousands of kilos. Even the strongest people in your family couldn't move it at all. Even earthquakes can't move it at all. Do you think I can move it?"

Ye Qing said, "Or do you think I have nothing else to do and will live in your Jiang family from now on? Is your Jiang family in need of bodyguards?"

Jiang Yuanshan was covered in cold sweat.

He had a sad face and knelt down with a thud: "Senior, I really didn't mean to deceive you! Besides, I didn't have any other intentions, and I never thought of asking you to stay and be our bodyguard!"

"Please give me your understanding, senior!"

The other members of the Jiang family also knelt down, trembling, and kept pleading for Jiang Yuanshan.

They really haven't thought about this problem.

Only after Ye Qing’s reminder did he realize the seriousness of the problem.

If this goes wrong, Ye Qing might misunderstand that they have other intentions!

If Ye Qing is unhappy, they will be in trouble!

Seeing this, Ye Qing didn't say anything, but just said: "Get up, go down and take a look first."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuanshan quickly stood up and carefully led the way.

He had already decided that unless Ye Qing asked, he would not say another word!
God knows if I've said something wrong again.

He never wanted to experience this kind of heart-pounding feeling again!
Soon, several people entered a house and then went underground from the entrance inside the house.

Below is the place where the Jiang family is in seclusion.

At the same time, it is also where the huge rock is located.
