Longevity Thunder Ancestor

Chapter 328: The Secret of the Zhang Family
"What you said is probably true. I didn't expect that someone else could obtain this technique..."

The flames rolled, and the old man murmured, his eyes full of shock.

Cheng Ziyi's beautiful eyes were also filled with excitement as she said, "When Uncle Seven was still alive, our Cheng family was so glorious! His strength was unmatched among the many Jindan cultivators in the sect, and he was even one of the best Jindan cultivators in the entire Jiang Kingdom. The name of [Master Cang Lei] was known to everyone in the five major sects! Under his leadership, our Cheng family is not much inferior to the Ouyang family!"

"But he suddenly left the family three hundred years ago, saying only that he had to go somewhere. After he left, our Cheng family lost its glory and its strength has been declining. Now it has even become the last among the major families. Now, even the Ouyang family and the Duanmu family are planning to help the Xia family replace our Cheng family!"

Having said this, Cheng Ziyi's beautiful eyes dimmed.

The face of the person in the flames was also rolling, and the old face was full of helplessness and worry.

After a long time, Old Man Cang's expression became serious: "Zi Yi, are you planning to let the cultivator you found open the magic weapon left by Uncle Qi? But Uncle Qi said that only the descendants of our Cheng family can open it..."

Cheng Ziyi nodded calmly.

"Before leaving, Uncle Seven seemed to know that he was in danger, so he left behind the first six levels of the Ancient Source Thunder Sutra and the special magic weapon, and told us that the Ancient Source Thunder Sutra was of great importance and could not be passed on to outsiders. Only when a descendant with thunder spirit roots appeared in the family could he practice it. If a descendant with thunder spirit roots really appeared and practiced the Ancient Source Thunder Sutra to the sixth level, he could use it to open the magic weapon he left behind...

But it is extremely difficult to have a clan member with thunder spiritual roots. In the past three hundred years, our Cheng family has only had three clan members with thunder spiritual roots, let alone high-grade spiritual roots.

Now our Cheng family is declining, and your time is coming to an end, big brother. The arrival of the Xia family is even worse for our Cheng family. When you pass away, our Cheng family will definitely face a catastrophe.

It is no exaggeration to say that our Cheng family is now at a critical juncture of life and death, so we can no longer stick to Uncle Seventh's instructions.

To be honest, I had been planning to persuade you to find a way to lure the sect's nephew Jing Dongji to our Cheng family and let him practice the Ancient Source Thunder Scripture.

However, we have all seen the exercises of the Ancient Source Thunder Sutra. As a top-level practice of dual cultivation of Dharma and body, it is extremely difficult to practice. It is not easy to practice to the late stage of foundation building.

But Junior Brother Ning has now cultivated it to the foundation-building stage. From my observation, it seems that the number of lightning sources he has cultivated is at least seven.

Back then, Uncle Seventh secretly practiced this technique, but he was only able to cultivate five lightning sources.

This is enough to show that Junior Brother Ning has great talent in practicing the Ancient Source Thunder Sutra. If we add the support of our Cheng family, he should be able to practice to the sixth level of the Ancient Source Thunder Sutra.

Then we can open the special magic weapon left by Uncle Seven, and we will be able to find out his whereabouts!"

At this point, Cheng Ziyi's voice became visibly excited.

The old man in the flames frowned and looked obviously moved.

“Uncle Qi’s Yuanhun lamp has not gone out yet, which means he may have cultivated to the Yuanying stage!

The reason why he hasn't come back yet is probably that he is trapped somewhere, and perhaps he needs help from us, the tribesmen.

His whereabouts may only be known after opening that special magic weapon. As long as he returns, the difficulties our Cheng family is facing will be solved!"

Cheng Ziyi persuaded excitedly with her beautiful face.

The flames rolled, and the old voice slowly said, "Ziyi, you are right. It is not appropriate to stick to Uncle Qi's orders at this time. It seems to be fate that you just happened to meet a cultivator who practices the Ancient Source Thunder Sutra. From what you said, it seems that the man is a foundation-building disciple of our sect. Please tell me about his situation in detail."

Cheng Ziyi's pretty face lit up with joy, and she described Ning Fa's situation in detail.

"I didn't expect that he was the cultivator who saved Su Su before. It seems that he is really destined to be with our Cheng family. However, the trouble is that he seems to be working for the Duanmu family now... It's not appropriate for me to come forward in person. Ziyi, you will be responsible for this matter. You must bring that nephew Ning to our Cheng family.

But be careful not to act too hastily. This matter is of great importance and must not arouse suspicion from other parties.

Otherwise, they would definitely obstruct this matter, especially the Ouyang family, they would never want to see Seventh Uncle return.

After all, Seventh Uncle is also a cultivator with thunder spiritual roots. If you make too big a move to win over Junior Brother Ning, it is likely to make some associations among them.

Anyway, that Junior Brother Ning has only just established his foundation, so you should take your time, build a good relationship with him first, and then win him over when the time is right."

Cheng Ziyi showed delight on her face, and it was obvious that what the Cheng family's elder said was what she was thinking.

There was a sparkle in her beautiful eyes, and she continued, "Actually there is a very good way, that is to let this Junior Brother Ning marry into our Cheng family. In addition to Su Su, even Zhi Rou, Hui Ying and others can be promised to him. If necessary, even Su Su..."

But before she could finish her words, an old voice interrupted her.

"I agree with Zhirou, Huiying and others, but not Susu. It is not known whether we can find Uncle Seventh, but Susu is the hope for the future of our Cheng family..."

Cheng Ziyi nodded slowly.

Then the flames died down.

Cheng Ziyi thought about it, then took out a sound transmission talisman and said something in a friendly manner.

……

In the Hei Ze Fairy City, inside the Tong Bao Pavilion which was built not long ago.

Ning Fa met Wei Shiqin again. Now she has become the owner of this store.

In addition to him, there was also a beautiful female cultivator in a blue dress, who was Wei Shiqin's sister Wei Shihua.

This woman is at the peak of the initial stage of foundation building and is only one step away from the middle stage.

"I was wondering why my sister volunteered to come from this bitter and cold place to be a shopkeeper. It turns out it was for Fellow Daoist Ning." Wei Shihua covered her mouth and giggled.

Ning Fa couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.

Wei Shiqin's arrival at the Tongbao Pavilion branch in Heize Fairy City as the shopkeeper must have been the result of discussions within her family, and her sister must have known about it as well.

Wei Shihua deliberately brought this up at this time, both as a joke and to emphasize to Ning Fa the sacrifice Wei Shiqin had made for him.

Even with Wei Shiqin's generous personality, she couldn't help but blush when she heard her sister teasing her like that.

She first glanced at Ning Fa quietly, then gently pushed Wei Shihua and said, "Sister, please go out first. Fellow Daoist Ning and I have something to discuss."
