Is it difficult to evolve your beast?

Chapter 192 Scene

"Hmm?" Jiang Feng looked ahead with a puzzled expression.

There's no door or anything here, is there?

"Only the head of the family can enter the upper level. The Yin-Yang pendant has chosen you, so you are the head of the Feng family." After Ji Zhang finished speaking, Jiang Feng looked down at the pendant hanging on his chest.

There was also a grass ring around the pendant. Aunt Ling said it might be related to her father's family, but no one from her father's family still exists, so she doesn't know the truth.

"Go up there yourself, and reflect on your journey. You might just discover something left behind by our ancestors."

After Ji Zhang finished speaking, Jiang Feng's eyes brightened a little.

What our ancestors left behind?

The ancestors on this level are from two thousand years ago, and those above them should be an even earlier group of people.

"Go upstairs, I'll wait for you on this floor." After saying that, Ji Zhang found a place to sit down.

Jiang Feng continued walking up the stairs, and as soon as he entered the eleventh floor, he felt a different atmosphere.

The surrounding air seemed to have become fresher. Looking at the characters on the memorial tablets, Jiang Feng didn't recognize most of them, but when he looked at them, they seemed to come alive and began to arrange and combine into characters that Jiang Feng recognized.

A look of surprise crossed her face, and then she went closer to take a look.

It seemed as if a gentle breeze brushed against my cheek.

Jiang Feng stood there in astonishment for a long time before looking at the memorial tablet in front of him and bowing to it.

She always felt that her mind became much clearer after that gentle breeze brushed against her cheek.

My whole body feels lighter.

Continuing forward, this ancestral hall has a tower-like structure.

The space gets smaller with each floor you move up.

Of course, each floor has more than one tier.

The higher up he went, the smaller the memorial tablets became. As Jiang Feng walked, he felt as if he had entered a dream world.

It was still the Feng family, but it was somewhat different from what we see now. The Feng family was full of people and decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, as if they were about to hold some important ceremony.

Jiang Feng continued walking forward out of curiosity, and then he saw someone who looked similar to Aunt Ling.

She was greeting the guests.

Jiang Feng walked past the other person without the other person seeing him.

This must be something that happened in the past?

A celebration event held within the Feng family?

Jiang Feng continued walking forward until he reached the place where the Feng family lived.

I saw the tree that Aunt Ling referred to as her senior.

The tree was already dead, but the number of tree spirits on it was obviously much greater than it is now, and most of them looked to be grown-up girls.

People were talking. Jiang Feng couldn't hear what they were saying, but he could tell from their expressions that something important was about to happen.

Then a fire suddenly broke out in the direction of the ancestral hall.

Jiang Feng remembered that Ji Zhang had just told him that this place had been burned down.

Clearly, this is a recreation of the scene from that time.

Upon closer inspection, the ancestral hall over there was indeed quite different from the one we see now.

At that time, the ancestral hall was not as tall as eighteen stories.

Thinking of what Ji Zhang said, that many things in the ancestral hall were lost after being burned by fire, she wondered if she could see what was inside the brain if she went to look now.

Jiang Feng didn't think too much and ran straight in that direction.

After running over, I saw a truly shocking scene.

A huge white dragon lay dead in front of the ancestral hall, and there were signs of battle next to it.

Jiang Feng wanted to take a few more steps forward, but his whole body ached as if it were being torn apart.

When she opened her eyes again, she was back in the ancestral hall, and the scene before her had completely disappeared.

"Is this... a hint from you?" Jiang Feng leaned against the wall with one hand, turning slightly to look at the memorial tablet next to him.

The characters on the memorial tablet seemed to change for a moment, as if in response to Jiang Feng's words.

The final scene was quite shocking to Jiang Feng.

The enormous white dragon lay on the ground, and the shrine swayed precariously in the flames, but there were no enemies, nothing at all.

She didn't know what it was. That day must have been an extremely important day for the Feng family, right? Why did something like that happen?

Jiang Feng didn't quite understand. She wanted to watch it again, because if she watched it again, she might be able to see more details.

But she could no longer see it, so she could only continue walking upwards.

Upon entering the next level, I found myself in yet another scene.

The scene was terrifying. As soon as Jiang Feng entered, he felt a wave of heat hitting him. Looking up, he saw something falling from the sky.

And that thing seemed to have discovered her as well.

Those were eyes like jewels, and even in the raging flames, their brilliance could not be concealed.

Then, flames fell down, and a great fire broke out on the mountain.

That's Phoenix Slope.

Is this a phoenix rising from the ashes?

But what about the surrounding desolation?

Why were all those houses burned down?

Jiang Feng pondered for a moment, then saw someone rushing towards Luofeng Slope. Jiang Feng followed in that direction and saw Dragon Valley.

On the ground of Dragon Valley, a long dragon lay.

Upon first seeing her, Jiang Feng had no other words to describe her except—beautiful.

She had no flaws whatsoever, but she was on the verge of death, as if she had survived some terrible ordeal.

Jiang Feng continued walking forward, and the scene before him seemed to correspond to the Dragon Valley of later generations.

Yes, there is a huge skeleton in Dragon Valley that runs through the entire valley.

This is exactly how the dragon is lying down right now.

This must be the five-clawed golden dragon, right? Her beauty leaves one speechless.

Jiang Feng seemed to have been seen by the other party as well. The other party turned around, and Jiang Feng was so frightened that he sat down on the ground.

A hint of benevolence seemed to appear on the huge dragon head.

Then, the other person blew a breath at her.

Jiang Feng lost consciousness. When he woke up again, he found himself lying upstairs, no longer on the original floor.

Now, where she is, there is only a memorial tablet.

She didn't recognize the words written on the memorial tablet, but behind it stood two statues.

A woman with a human body and a snake's tail, wearing a crown.

Behind her was the five-clawed dragon she had just seen.

They were inseparable, like sisters.

She didn't know why those two words appeared in her mind; it seemed as if it was meant to be.

Jiang Feng opened his mouth, thinking of the book he had seen before and what Aunt Ling had said.

Humans and mythical beasts have simply chosen different paths of evolution, resulting in the current situation.

Jiang Feng stood in front of the memorial tablet for a long time. At this moment, the pendant around her neck floated up, as if it was pulling her forward.

Jiang Feng followed the guide forward and saw the box placed next to the statue.

No one can get up here, yet it remains clean; the boxes are almost spotless.

There's a round switch on the box; you can tell what you need to use to open it just by looking at it.

Jiang Feng took the pendant off and placed it on the switch.

There seemed to be the sound of something being opened in the air.

The box was opened, and a warm light emanated from it. It seemed that something had run into the pendant. Finally, the light faded, leaving only a sword inside the box.

"Is this... for me?"

Her voice echoed through the building, but received no reply.

It was a very beautiful sword, with a character she didn't recognize engraved on the hilt.

The sword was in a box; it was very small.

Jiang Feng thought for a moment, then reached out his hand, intending to take out his sword.

The moment the fingers gripped the hilt, the sword grew larger and pierced the wooden box in the hand.

A hint of regret appeared on Jiang Feng's face, and then his hand sank, and the sword fell to the ground.

She quickly pulled her foot back to avoid being hit by the heavy hilt of the sword.

"What should we do?"

The sword fell to the ground with a sound. Jiang Feng was startled, took a step back, and then stood next to the sword, circling around.

She tried to reach out, but she seemed too weak to lift the sword.

Jiang Feng used both hands, but couldn't move the sword an inch. What should he do?

The sword had no scabbard, and when Jiang Feng pulled his hand back, he was injured by the blade and bled.

She looked terrified and clutched her fingers.

Will I get tetanus?

The sword should be fine, right?

Then, the sword began to shrink.

"Huh?"

Jiang Feng lowered his head, rubbed his eyes, then looked at the sword, and then at his hands.

Could it be?

Can the sword be shrunk by using one's own blood?

What kind of setting is this?

Then she thought for a moment, stretched out her other hand, and used all her strength to try to lift the sword.

Unexpectedly, the sword became very light, causing Jiang Feng, who had used great strength, to fall to the ground with a thud.

"pain!"

I feel like my butt got smashed into four pieces.

The sword looked even better than before, and it seemed to gleam with a cold light.

Jiang Feng pondered for a moment, then carefully placed his hand on the tip of the sword again.

This time, my finger wasn't accidentally cut.

Eh?

However, she didn't think too much about it. Once she had the item in her hand, she could put it into the spatial button.

As Jiang Feng put the sword back, he felt a repulsive force.

She fainted, and when she woke up again, she found herself standing on the eleventh floor, the place she had just entered.

That's...amazing.

Jiang Feng didn't know the principle behind it; he just felt that it all seemed like a myth.

The scenes I saw in my dream—the decline of the entire Feng family and the fall of the dragon and phoenix—all seemed to be directly related to the heavens.

The sky has changed, so they change.

So, is he hinting at something to her now?

But she's only at the second level right now. Even if she knows a lot of things, what can she do?

She can't do anything, she can't change anything!

Jiang Feng lowered her head, and then felt a gentle breeze brush past her, as if it were comforting her.

Jiang Feng looked up and around, and seemed to see a memorial tablet flashing.

"thank you."

After saying that, Jiang Feng smiled.

But no matter what, she still has to walk her own path.

Jiang Feng pondered for a long time before continuing upwards. This time, he encountered nothing until he reached the top floor.

The door to the top floor was tightly closed, and she couldn't get up there.

Everything that had just happened felt like a dream, but the sword lying inside the spatial button told her that it was not a dream.

After walking around and looking at all the memorial tablets, Jiang Feng went downstairs.

It was getting dark outside, and Jiang Feng felt hungry as he went downstairs.

On the tenth floor, Ji Zhang, who was sitting there waiting, also became nervous.

He remembered that when his sister went up, it didn't seem to take that long.

My sister previously said that she saw many scenes, and even the cultivation technique she learned was from those scenes.

But that's all.

Jiang Feng has been inside for a long time now, and the sun has already set while the moon is rising.

Then, Ji Zhang heard footsteps and breathed a sigh of relief.

He had just stood up when Jiang Feng's voice rang in his ears: "Uncle!"

Jiang Feng was delighted and walked towards Ji Zhang.

As she went upstairs, she felt a strange sense of loneliness.

It was also very cold, and my legs felt stiff as I walked.

But that coldness was just a temperature issue; it didn't cause any discomfort to people's hearts.

But now that I've come down and seen Ji Zhang, that feeling of coldness has vanished instantly.

Ji Zhang noticed the change in her expression, took two steps forward, and asked with concern, "What's wrong?"

"I'm hungry!" Jiang Feng looked up and said sincerely.

Upon hearing this, Ji Zhang reached out and patted her head.

"Then go back quickly, have a good rest after dinner, and we'll come here tomorrow morning for you to enter the second stage."

"After you reach the second stage, you will consolidate your progress for two days. The day after tomorrow, we will go to the Illusionary Spirit Realm to form contracts with magical beasts." After Ji Zhang finished speaking, Jiang Feng nodded.

Then Jiang Feng described the scene he saw from above.

"Uncle, I saw many scenes during my ascent."

"Yes, your mother saw it too." Ji Zhang nodded as he listened to Jiang Feng's words, and walked down with Jiang Feng.

"I saw how this tower collapsed. They say it was a fire from the sky. That day was our ancestor's birthday, and also the most lively celebration day for our Feng family."

Ji Zhang and Jiang Feng's mother knew more about their family, so when Jiang Feng's mother saw that scene, she was able to connect it to what had happened back then.

"Your mother also saw the process of the family's prosperity and some of the techniques we have learned for generations."

"However, she said the top floor was locked and she couldn't get in."

Jiang Feng looked puzzled when he heard about the cultivation method.

"After I entered those scenes, I couldn't hear any sound."

How could my mother have learned the kung fu?

Ji Zhang smiled and said, "I told you before you came in that this tower can hold the souls of our ancestors."

After he finished speaking, he looked back.

Jiang Feng's mouth dropped open: "Uncle, do their souls really still exist?"
