Chapter 687: Millennium family, ten thousand year giant house

Luo Chen was indeed negligent.

Recently, he was busy researching the soul technique Ghost God Retreat, and was also thinking about some other things, which led to forgetting one thing.

That is, Luo Chen's group was not just five people!

Parasitizing on Black King's body were millions of Dragon Earthworms!

Plus, when on Sun Moon Island, Yu Ziyou focused on Zhang Jingqing, and Luo Chen boasted that he could use both source power and magic power to protect Zhang Jingqing through the teleportation array, so he didn't think about the hidden danger on Black King.

Black King didn't mention it either!

In short, when they teleported over, this scene appeared.

Black King could not bear the burden, the source power was over-consumed, but still did not protect the millions of Dragon Earthworms parasitizing in the body.

Under the huge pressure, 99% of the Dragon Earthworms were crushed into powder, and Black King couldn't help but vomit their flesh and blood in large mouthfuls.

At this moment, the underground palace was extremely fishy, just like a slaughterhouse.

After listening to Luo Chen's explanation, Fu Chaosheng couldn't help but stroke his forehead in pain.

He also forgot about this, powerful wild beasts often have parasitic beasts on their bodies.

If the quantity was small, it would be fine, but no one expected that there would be such a terrifying number of parasites on Black King.

When he heard that it was a Dragon Earthworm monster beast, he felt even more regrettable.

A million Dragon Earthworms, even if they were all first-order and second-order, their value would be worth ten or twenty billion spirit stones.

This was all destroyed, which really made people feel extremely distressed.

Winter Mountain Person and Lu Qiuzhen looked at Luo Chen with extreme shock at this moment, never expecting that the other party had such a hidden huge wealth.

A million Dragon Earthworms are enough to be called a complete monster beast group.

I don't know where the other party got them from, young and promising, his wealth exceeded those of them who were Nascent Soul cultivators for many years.

But now it's all gone, and watching the excitement, their hearts seem to be balanced.

"Forget it, forget it, it's just a small matter in the end, it's good that everyone arrived safely." Fu Chaosheng waved his hand, comforting Luo Chen, "Later I will order my clansmen to come and clean up the Star Island underground palace, and then compensate the sect with a sum of spirit stones."

He said it lightly, but the painful look on his face could not deceive anyone.

Luo Chen didn't quite understand.

But when he saw the Dao Sect disciples stationed on the island rushing over, he understood why Fu Chaosheng was so painful.

Overload teleportation requires huge spiritual energy!

Not only did it suck dry the few top-grade spirit stones usually kept in the underground palace in one breath, but it also took away a large amount of spiritual energy from the fourth-order spirit vein on the island, which is difficult to recover in a short time.

In this way, it affected the normal operation of the teleportation array on Star Island.

The spirit stones that the Fu family has to compensate are obviously not a small amount.

On Star Island, the four Nascent Soul True Persons were checking the situation of their clansmen and disciples to ensure that they were not seriously injured.

Luo Chen withdrew his spiritual sense from Zhang Jingqing, showing a look of satisfaction.

With his source power protecting his body and magic power covering his body, Zhang Jingqing finally carried it over.

At this moment, only the internal organs were slightly damaged.

This kind of injury is nothing to Luo Chen.

After converting his magic power and successively performing medical techniques such as Spring Breeze Turns into Rain and Five Viscera Returning to Origin several times, Zhang Jingqing's pale little face gradually became rosy.

"Thank you, True Person!"

After thanking him, her worried eyes fell on Luo Chen's shoulder.

Black King was lying there, sick and listless.

Luo Chen waved his hand, "You go to Tianxuan's side, Black King is fine."

After Zhang Jingqing left, Black King said listlessly: "Master, Black King made a mistake."

Luo Chen shook his head. "That is somewhat overestimating one's capabilities. It took a great deal of effort for me to protect Xiao Qing; if you still harbor delusions of protecting a million dragon earthworms all by yourself, it would be your good fortune if you didn't end up getting yourself dragged into it."

"I originally thought that they were hiding in my body, and with my powerful physique resisting external pressure, and source power protection, they should be able to hold on. But I didn't expect... that the master would suffer heavy losses."

Facing Black King's plea of guilt, Luo Chen was calm.

This trip was indeed a heavy loss for him.

A million Dragon Earthworms are worth a lot!

Originally, he wanted to bring them back to the Eastern Wasteland to revitalize the Luo Tian Sect, but now they are all lost inside.

It cannot be said that they are all lost. Black King absorbed a large amount of Dragon Earthworm blood in those years, and is naturally close to these crawling insects, regarding them as descendants. In times of crisis, he still spent a lot of effort to preserve a few thousand second-order Dragon Earthworms.

With this batch of essence seeds, the scale of the group can be cultivated again later.

Most importantly, Black King himself did not have a major accident.

"You rest first, I'll go talk to Fu Chaosheng."

Black King gave an 'en' and drilled into Luo Chen's sleeve listlessly.

Luo Chen summoned Fu Hongzhang, asked clearly about Fu Chaosheng's location, and rushed over.

When he got there, he saw Fu Chaosheng talking to several cultivators in black and white Daoist robes, so he naturally wouldn't go up to disturb them, and waited quietly on the side.

After a while, Fu Chaosheng walked back dejectedly.

Seeing the waiting Luo Chen, he opened his mouth, wanting to speak but stopping.

Luo Chen was understanding and asked directly: "Do you need to compensate for a lot of spirit stones?"

The skylight has been opened, so speak clearly.

Fu Chaosheng sighed, "It's more than I thought. I originally thought that compensating for ten or eight million spirit stones would be fine. I didn't expect them to open their mouths like a lion, wanting me to take out thirty million spirit stones, otherwise, they would report this matter to the sect."

Just thirty million?

Luo Chen was stunned, thinking it was some kind of sky-high price.

But soon, he reacted, this is indeed not a small amount.

Don't look at his young age and sitting on hundreds of millions of wealth, those spirit stones were not earned by his own hands.

It all depends on killing and seizing treasures!

In the past, when Luo Chen was painstakingly running a business, his total savings never exceeded thirty million.

Although he is now extremely wealthy, some top-grade spirit stones and high-grade spirit stones inside also belong to strategic resources and will not be easily taken out for trading as currency.

By comparison, Fu Chaosheng seems extremely wealthy, but there is a huge family below, and he also needs to spend resources to support his granddaughter in the early Nascent Soul stage.

Taking out thirty million at once, for him, can be considered hurting his muscles and bones.

After pondering for a moment, Luo Chen said straightforwardly: "This matter started because of me, and it should be my responsibility. I will pay this spirit stone."

Fu Chaosheng was stunned, even knowing that Luo Chen was quite wealthy, he didn't expect the other party to be so open and upright.

"This is not very good, after all, you were invited by me..."

"There is nothing good or bad, you and I are in a cooperative relationship. Apart from the content of the cooperation, I don't want to trouble you too much."

Fu Chaosheng nodded subconsciously.

But soon, he woke up.

Not wanting to trouble himself too much, in other words, it is also not wanting himself to trouble him too much outside the content of the cooperation.

"Let's do this, you pay half of the spirit stones, and I will pay the rest. Don't refuse, this matter also has the responsibility of my reminder not being in place. Moreover, when my Fu family clansmen come to clean up the underground palace, the accumulated Dragon Earthworm blood can also be recycled and used as a supplement."

Luo Chen looked at Fu Chaosheng unexpectedly, but didn't insist anymore.

Grasping the degree of getting along is very important, half and half, not hurting harmony, and not involving too deeply.

It's just that when leaving Star Island, Fu Chaosheng looked back at the underground palace subconsciously.

"Just returned to the Central Continent, and there is a bloody disaster, this omen is a bit bad."

When taking the first step on the Central Continent, Luo Chen vaguely noticed the difference between this place and the Eastern Wasteland and the North Sea.

First of all, it is the omnipresent spiritual energy of heaven and earth!

The degree of abundance, even if it is just a wild path passing by, has a first-order level.

Wherever the human race gathers, it has a second-order level.

The third-order spirit vein that Luo Chen sought in his early years, and even did not hesitate to participate in the opening war to obtain, he saw more than a dozen places with his own eyes in a short half-day journey!

It is conceivable that in this spiritual energy environment, fourth-order spirit veins are also common.

Just this discovery made Luo Chen, and even the two Nascent Soul True Persons, Winter Mountain Person and Lu Qiuzhen, who came from the North Sea, extremely shocked.

Being in the Five Continents, is the gap between the Central Continent and the other four continents so huge?

Apart from this point, another special feature is also what Luo Chen marvels at.

Where his spiritual sense swept, he saw many Foundation Establishment and Jin Dan cultivators.

Unlike cultivators from other continents who are careful and guarded against each other, these people, even if they are clearly not from the same family, are relatively harmonious.

Such a wonder, Luo Chen can only attribute it to the fact that the Central Continent has only one sect, the Tianyuan Dao Sect.

There are other differences, similar clothing styles, simple architectural styles based on black and white, etc. Compared to the first two, these are not worth mentioning.

On the Fu family's flying boat, Fu Chaosheng briefly introduced some basic situations of the Central Continent to the three of them.

"Unlike the Eastern Wasteland's sect-governed immortal domain division, and the North Sea's immortal islands with many loose cultivators, the situation here in the Central Continent is very simple."

"The entire Central Continent has countless families, but there is only one sect, and that is my Tianyuan Dao Sect!"

"The Tianyuan Dao Sect is not only the only sect in the Central Continent, but also the co-lord of all families in the Central Continent. Looking at the world, it is also the most powerful force!"

"If you can join the Star Gate, that is the generosity of my sect, and also your honor!"

Unlike the usual smiling face, at this time, Fu Chaosheng rarely showed a touch of pride.

That is the pride of being a descendant of the world's number one holy land.

This pride allows him to have the confidence to be calm and composed whether facing the righteous and demonic paths of the North Sea, the Nascent Soul late-stage monster monk Kong Chan, or the three people in front of him, Luo Chen.

Usually, because he has to walk outside to do business, he is kind to everyone.

But now, he is no longer that businessman, but a descendant of the Dao Sect, so he doesn't need to be careful and make money in harmony.

"The Star Gate is located in the center of the Central Continent and is set up on the Heaven and Earth Peak."

"Winter Mountain Person, you hold Elder Shen's recommendation order, Fellow Daoist Lu, you hold my recommendation order, carry your clansmen and disciples, and you can pass unimpeded all the way. At that time, there will naturally be Star Gate Elders sending people to review."

"Fellow Daoist Luo, you follow me back to the Fu family. As for subsequent matters, I have my own arrangements."

Fu Chaosheng made arrangements for the subsequent itinerary.

Luo Chen naturally had no objection.

The other two looked at each other, and at the time of parting, they also expressed their gratitude to Fu Chaosheng, thanking him for taking this trip.

After the two left, the proud look on Fu Chaosheng's face faded away, and he returned to his previous appearance.

"Sorry, let you see a joke."

Luo Chen shook his head, "No problem, after all, they are not people on the same road as us."

Indeed, they are not people on the same road.

Those two were quite old and did not meet the conditions for entering the Mirage Dragon Cave Heaven at all. They took a step first, but could only stop at the Heaven and Earth Peak.

Luo Chen is different, he is qualified to be a protector for Dao Sect disciples and enter the Mirage Dragon Cave Heaven.

And according to what Fu Chaosheng said, even if such a person joins the Heaven and Earth Peak, the chances of becoming a guest, or even an Elder of the Heaven and Earth Peak, in the future are much greater.

Luo Chen was more curious about the things he had observed earlier, so he simply asked.

Fu Chaosheng did not hide it and solved his doubts directly.

"The Central Continent is the place with the most prosperous spiritual energy in this world, so it is normal for spiritual energy to be abundant."

"In addition, because this continent is solely controlled by my Dao Sect, there is also a complete plan for the cultivation of spirit veins, and there will be no situation where loose cultivators or sect cultivators from other continents over-exploit spirit stone mines."

"Finally, the Star Gate of the Heaven and Earth Peak is wide open, recruiting Nascent Soul cultivators from all over the world. These existences are used by my sect when they are alive, and after they sit down, their huge magic power will feed back into the heaven and earth of the Central Continent. This is also the reason why the spiritual energy of the Central Continent is becoming more and more prosperous."

Luo Chen nodded repeatedly as he listened, and the doubts in his heart were solved.

Cultivators achieve personal greatness in long-term cultivation, but once they fall, the terrifying magic power accumulated in their lifetime will not disappear for no reason, but will return to heaven and earth.

Fu Chaosheng went to the North Sea for two hundred years and brought back seven Nascent Soul True Persons in one trip.

Even if it is a relatively large one, under normal circumstances, there will always be two or three people defecting to the Tianyuan Dao Sect.

This is the quantity of two hundred years, the Tianyuan Alliance was established after the ancient times, and it has been three thousand years since then!

How many North Sea Nascent Soul cultivators have been attracted?

What about the Eastern Wasteland, Southern Border, and Western Desert?

If you add the Nascent Soul True Persons cultivated by the Dao Sect itself, that quantity...

Just a slight reverie is enough to make people feel awe!

Luo Chen had heard the rumor of the Eastern Wasteland Alchemy Saint leaving for the Central Continent to join the Tianyuan Dao Sect since he was a child. Now it seems that he can be considered to be following the predecessors.

Not only that Alchemy Saint, Luo Chen had also heard before that there were powerhouses who left the Southern Border, joined the Central Continent's Tianyuan Dao Sect, achieved Soul Transformation, and even ascended to the upper realm.

All these things show that the Tianyuan Dao Sect has been implementing the plan to absorb talents from other continents for many years.

Among so many people, those who ascend are a minority in the end.

Most Nascent Soul True Persons, after the limit of their lifespan arrives, can only turn into a handful of yellow earth, adding bricks and tiles to the prosperity of the Central Continent.

"I naturally won't stay for long. The so-called joining the Tianyuan Dao Sect is just to obtain the status of a Star Gate guest, so that I can return to the Central Continent."

Luo Chen smiled in his heart and did not intend to dedicate his life to the Central Continent.

As for how to go back at that time, Fu Chaosheng will naturally operate it for him.

Afterwards, Luo Chen asked about the strange situation of cultivators living in harmony here.

"Everyone respects the Dao Sect as the master, so they naturally won't fight to the death."

Fu Chaosheng explained.

But soon, he shook his head again.

"It only looks harmonious on the surface, but in reality, the competition between families is very fierce."

"You should have understood the hierarchical system of families in the Central Continent, right?"

Luo Chen nodded, "I have heard a little, it seems to distinguish the size of family strength by giant houses and families."

"It's a bit crude, let me explain it to you in detail!"

Fu Chaosheng waved his hand and chanted softly: "There are twelve giant houses, thirty-six families. Countless cold doors, casting the Tianyuan Sect together."

"This is the pattern of families in the Central Continent. The twelve giant houses are high above, the millennium families are glorious for a time, and the fallen cold doors are all looking upward."

A simple little poem aptly explains the situation of the Tianyuan Dao Sect.

In his introduction, Luo Chen also understood the Tianyuan Dao Sect more and more deeply.

This Soul Transformation holy land that dominates the Central Continent and watches the world is different from the traditional sect passed down by master and apprentice. Its interior is mainly based on family inheritance.

Although there is also a small amount of master-apprentice inheritance, the mainstream is the various families distributed in the Central Continent.

The so-called giant house is a top-level family that has produced Soul Transformation powerhouses.

The so-called family is a large family that has produced Nascent Soul True Persons.

The so-called cold door is based on the number of Jin Dan cultivators.

As for below the cold door?

It is no longer in the eyes of the Dao Sect, but it cannot be summarized as loose cultivators. These small households can only be attached to the command of large families. After their cultivation level is achieved, they will see whether to set up another sect.

Luo Chen was shocked and once asked in a loss of voice: "Twelve giant houses, could it be that there are twelve Soul Transformation powerhouses in the Central Continent today?"

Fu Chaosheng was dumbfounded and had to remind: "It is produced, not existing."

Luo Chen smiled awkwardly, he rarely lost his composure like this.

It was really that the coexistence of twelve powerhouses was a bit scary.

You know, in the North Sea, the Yuanmo Sect has a total of three Soul Transformation powerhouses, even if you add the Northern Li Great Saint and the Sea Emperor Whale on the monster side, there are only five.

In the Eastern Wasteland, it is said that the Mingyuan Sect also has three Soul Transformation powerhouses, and on the monster side, as far as he knows, there is an ancient monster named Di Tian, even if you add the Qixia Yuanjun, there are only five.

Perhaps there are hidden powerful existences of this realm in the two continents, but the quantity is definitely not large.

If the Central Continent could take out twelve at once, it would be really scary.

Suddenly.

Fu Chaosheng whispered: "If my sect wants to, it is not impossible for ten powerhouses to exist at the same time, or even more."

Luo Chen's eyes widened suddenly.

However, the other party had no intention of continuing to explain, but changed the subject.

"Ten thousand year giant houses are not immortal after all, and millennium families will also sink. Within my sect, there are regular assessments for families and clans."

"Let's not talk about giant houses for now, families are evaluated every five hundred years, and cold doors are evaluated every three hundred years."

"If the True Person sits down and the descendants are unfilial, and no second Nascent Soul True Person is produced within five hundred years, the name of the family will be automatically canceled and fall into the ranks of cold doors. The review of cold doors is inferred by analogy."

"In order to ensure family inheritance, there are people from generation to generation. Therefore, for the sake of cultivation resources, the competition between families is extremely fierce!"

"And the scope of this resource competition is not only between family territories, but also among the clansmen who join the Dao Sect."

"The sect grand competition every hundred years is a competition with real swords and guns on the surface."

"And the Mirage Dragon Cave Heaven grand competition every five hundred years is the most intense one!"

"My Fu family is lucky, when I was old and frail, Qinglan stood up. But after her, can luck continue? I don't know, and I dare not gamble. So, I must seize this opportunity to ensure that Qinglan can harvest more resources and a higher status within the Dao Sect!"

"Therefore, I hope that fellow daoist will do your best to help Qinglan succeed!"

Speaking to the end, Fu Chaosheng, whose rosy face could not hide the wrinkles, stared at Luo Chen with burning eyes.

Not only that, with a wave of his hand, spiritual light flickered, and four jade bottles were placed in front of Luo Chen. ===== CHAPTER 688 =====
