Chapter 314 Bloodline Challenge
The next day, it was already bright when I woke up.
"Husband, I have entered the fourth level, and the feeling inside my body seems to be completely different."
Gong Mulan said to Chen Ling with a surprised look on her face while helping Chen Ling get dressed.
At this moment, her face was rosy, and she had a mysterious aura all over her body. Her eyes were bright and gazing, and there seemed to be a bright moon floating in them, with a cold and charming aura flowing around her.
Last night, before going to bed, she was still at the third level of cultivation.
I didn't expect that when I woke up, I would break through the fourth level.
She did remember the scene of having a double break with Chen Ling.
But the effect is so good!
In other words, during this double break, I directly broke through the bottleneck and improved by a big level.
This effect can far exceed the previous weekend break.
This improvement made her feel a little outrageous.
Moreover, there was a new bloodline power in her body, giving her a mysterious and unpredictable feeling.
She hasn't gotten used to it yet.
Chen Ling smiled and said, "This may be the benefit brought by Yin Yang Spirit Flame!"
It is difficult to explain this kind of thing clearly. Just move out the Yin Yang Spirit Flame and it will be done.
"Really? But why didn't it have this effect before?"
Gong Mulan was a little confused, turned her eyes, and said with a smile, "Husband, how about we try again?"
As soon as the words fell, wow wow!
On the small bed, Xiao Xinghuo's cry could be heard.
"I'm afraid Huo'er is hungry, let's feed him first!" Chen Ling said with a smile.
He naturally knew that even if he took a double break, he would not have the same effect as yesterday.
Unless Gong Mulan has more golden incense value to improve the bloodline of the Youyue Immortal Clan.
Gong Mulan hurriedly picked up Xiao Xinghuo and coaxed, "Huo'er, be good, mother will feed you right now!"
······.
The war boat flew continuously in the ancient jungle. After more than ten days of flying, it finally entered the territory of the ancient tribe safely.
During these days, Chen Ling and Gong Mulan have been practicing to consolidate their cultivation.
The flight route of the war boat is all controlled by Feng Jia and Jian Er.
It was a calm journey all the way here.
The heavy snow also stopped, and huge cities appeared from time to time among the ice and snow in the ancient jungle.
On this day, we were less than a hundred miles away from the ancient tribe.
Gong Mulan no longer practices, is timid about being close to home, and is extremely excited.
We are finally returning to the tribe we have been away from for so many years!
Moreover, this time I came back with my husband and children!
Although now the Chen family's position in her heart has unknowingly surpassed that of the tribe.
But this is still the hometown where she grew up and where she has the people closest to her.
It is an inseparable concern in her life.
"Husband, I used to lead people to hunt around this area in winter. Winter is actually a good hunting season for our tribe."
"After the snow melts in the south, there is a big river, and a kind of three-color jade is produced in the river. It's so beautiful!"
······.
In the cabin, Gong Mulan kept introducing the situation of the tribe to Chen Ling.
Chen Ling was slowly drinking spiritual tea.
The ancient tribe has always been ranked among the top three in strength among the several large tribes in the ancient jungle.
The tribe has a long history, dating back tens of thousands of years.
The bloodline is endless, and in every generation, there are people from the Ancient Fire Tribe with strong bloodlines appearing.
In the wild jungle, if a tribe loses its blood lineage, it will easily be cannibalized by other tribes.
As for the Gong family, as the leader of the ancient tribe, their status has never changed.
The Gong family also has a long history. According to Gong Mulan, it has a history of sixteen thousand years.
However, the main line of the Gong family has a fatal flaw, that is, almost every generation is passed down alone.
This is an extremely dangerous thing in the ancient jungle.
After all, the jungle is full of monsters. If something unexpected happens, the Gong family's bloodline will be cut off.
As for the side lineage of the Gong family, although there are many people, the bloodline of the clan members is extremely rare, let alone the sixth level, or even the fourth level.
Gong Mulan's lineage is the only one that maintains a high-level bloodline.
A thousand years ago, the Gong family once produced a sixth-level barbarian cultivator who led the ancient tribe to open up wasteland and expand their territory, and their strength took off in an all-round way.
Conquered several large tribes.
The strength has reached its peak in ten thousand years.
Nowadays, in the Huanggu tribe, in addition to the Gong family, there are also two big families, the Mo family and the Tujia family.
If the sacred beast Fire Cloud Divine Bird is added, there are five fifth-level barbaric cultivators.
Among them, Gong Mulan's grandfather Gong Zhengyang and Mo Qingshan, the old patriarch of the Moh family, are in the middle stage of the Five Barbarians, and the other two are the heads of the Moh family and the Tujia family, respectively, in the early stage of the fifth stage.
This kind of strength, looking at the entire world of immortal cultivation in ancient China, can only be compared to the three major sects of Guiyun City.
As soon as he entered the territory of the ancient tribe, Chen Ling could feel the power of the ancient tribe.
Every few hundred miles the war boat passes, there is a fourth-level tribal city.
At least a dozen.
These fourth-level tribes are all vassal tribes of the ancient tribes, and each tribe has several fourth-level barbarian cultivators.
The war boat is very fast and flies at a high altitude. There are almost no monsters in the ancient jungle that can pose a threat to it.
Continuing to drive through a stick of incense, dozens of miles away, a huge stone city appeared in Chen Ling's field of vision amidst the white snow.
The huge city wall was shrouded in a faint halo, and amidst the falling snowflakes, one could still clearly see the astonishing aura released by the light shield.
"Husband, the ancient city is ahead of us. I will send a message to my father first to prevent the war boat from disturbing the tribal patrol team."
In the cabin, Gong Mulan pointed to the giant city and said to Chen Ling with an excited expression, flashing a bone tool in her hand.
Tribal people are being notified.
Chen Ling smiled and nodded.
After a while, two rays of light flew out from the ancient city, and in an instant, they fell directly on the deck of the war boat.
Two figures were revealed.
One was a burly middle-aged man wearing a tiger-patterned animal robe, with a tough, angular face and an eager look on his face.
The other person is a middle-aged woman with good looks and temperament wearing a white animal robe. Her delicate facial features look somewhat similar to Gong Mulan.
"Lan'er! Is it really you?"
As soon as she landed, the woman couldn't wait to shout.
Looking at the cabin, the woman's face was full of excitement and disbelief.
She just received the message from her daughter. She felt unbelievable and was even more excited.
You know, they have sent more than a dozen waves of tribesmen to search for Gong Mulan for several years, but there has been no news.
I received a letter from Gong Mulan at the beginning of the year. It just reported that she was safe, but there was no other news.
This surprised and delighted her.
I am happy that my daughter is still alive, but I am surprised that my daughter has some difficulties to contact her in this way.
Naturally, she would not have thought that Gong Mulan was just worried that if she exposed Jade Butterfly City, she would be forcibly taken back to the tribe.
In this way, she violated Chen Ling's promise.
Now I really see my daughter appearing in front of me.
There was a baby in his hands, and a young monk stood beside him.
For a moment, she still doubted that this was not a dream!
The burly man standing behind her, although his eyes were equally excited, his expression was relatively calm.
"Dad! Aniang! Lan'er is back!"
Gong Mulan could no longer bear it at this moment and walked to the middle-aged man and woman with tears in her eyes.
Chen Ling also hurriedly followed over, bowed his hands respectfully, and said, "My son-in-law, Chen Ling, has met my father-in-law and mother-in-law!"
On the way, Gong Mulan also mentioned it to him.
Her grandfather Gong Zhengyang was in the mid-fifth level.
His father, Gong Nanming, is in the late fourth level, and his mother, Lu Shan, is in the late third level.
Gong Nanming looked at Chen Ling with bright eyes, cautious and doubtful in his expression.
He knew his daughter's character clearly.
Gong Mulan has been extremely opinionated since she was a child, and she also knew in her heart that the only way to maintain her family's bloodline was to become Taoist companions with tribesmen of the same high-level bloodline.
Why would you choose Chen Ling to practice this method?
In addition, he has been missing for no reason for these years.
He wondered in his heart whether Chen Ling had done something to his daughter?
"Dad, this is your son-in-law Chen Ling and your grandson Xinghuo!"
Gong Mulan calmed down and then introduced to both parties.
"Lan'er, you have a baby, please let me hug you!"
Lu Shan confirmed that the person in front of her was her daughter. With a smile on her face, she looked at Chen Ling and without thinking about anything else, she reached out to take the child and started to coax her happily.
"Level 6 bloodline!" Gong Nanming looked excited as his eyes swept over the child.
He could see the blood aura on Xing Huo at a glance.
Now, it has been determined that there is nothing wrong with my daughter.
As for the matter of marriage, it was already cooked, and there was nothing he could do.
"Just come back, go home first, and explain the rest after you get back!"
Lu Shan said with excitement on her face while holding her infant child.
Gong Nanming nodded.
Chen Ling immediately waved his hand.
Feng Jia continued to drive the war boat towards the ancient city.
After a while, the war boat landed in a square in the city.
As the war boat entered the ancient city, many tribesmen noticed Chen Ling and others on the deck of the war boat.
"Saint, the saint is back!"
Among the clan members, people exclaimed.
They pointed at Zhan Zhou with shocked expressions, and many of them looked happy.
Surprised, people turned their attention to Chen Ling and discussed the relationship between Chen Ling and Gong Mulan.
As soon as the five people got off the war boat, many tribesmen gathered around them.
Gong Nanming waved his hand angrily and shouted, "Go back all here."
He didn't even know the current situation, but he didn't want to make any jokes.
Chen Ling looked indifferent, activated the storage ring in his hand, put the war boat into it, and then followed Gong Mulan and the others towards a stone palace.
Entering the stone hall, after everyone took their seats, Gong Mulan introduced Chen Ling again.
As for Fengjia, it is up to the clan members to arrange a place to live.
After being asked by her parents, Gong Mulan briefly introduced her situation after being captured by Du Qingyun.
As for the contract with Chen Ling, she did not mention it. She simply explained that Chen Ling saved her.
Later, she stayed at Chen's house to treat her injuries.
"Lan'er, you are suffering!"
Lu Shan couldn't help crying when she heard that her daughter had been sealed and tortured for several years.
"Ling'er, I didn't expect that with your level of cultivation, you could kill Nascent Soul sword cultivator Du Qingyun!"
"If this thief doesn't die, I will cut him into pieces!"
Gong Nanming, who had always had a calm expression, was now filled with uncontrollable anger and gritted his teeth.
"Father-in-law and mother-in-law, I was forced into desperation by this thief, so I fought to the death and was lucky enough to kill him."
"That's when I accidentally saved Lan'er, and then used the spirit flames to remove the cold air from Lan'er's body, so Lan'er and I became Taoist companions."
Chen Ling said with a serious face.
At this moment, Lu Shan was coaxing her grandson with joy. Suddenly her daughter came back and brought a grandson back with her.
This was enough to make her ecstatic.
Gong Nanming also looked at Xinghuo with a happy face, which was enough to show his attitude.
Originally, she was wary of Chen Ling, but now after hearing Gong Mulan's introduction, she realized that Chen Ling was the great benefactor who saved her daughter.
"Ling'er, I won't say more about what I'm grateful for!"
"Lan'er has a casual personality. I need you to be more tolerant and take care of me in the future!"
Lu Shan said with a smile.
She is the mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, and the more she looks at her, the more satisfied she becomes.
"Mother-in-law's words are serious. Lan'er and I treat each other with respect as guests." Chen Ling also replied with a smile.
"Dad, grandma, let me tell you some good news. The ancient Fire Tribe blood in Huo'er's body is much thicker than mine."
"If you use the blood and essence of the holy beast to cleanse the marrow, it is even possible to go one step further."
Gong Mulan had regained her composure and said happily.
Although I have suffered a lot in the past few years.
But after meeting Chen Ling and having Huo'er, all this suffering was not in vain.
"What? Is there still potential for improvement?"
When Gong Nanming heard this, he was startled for a moment, and then his face became extremely surprised.
He stood up, took the Xinghuo from his wife, and looked at it carefully.
You must know that Gong Mulan possesses the sixth-level ancient fire clan bloodline, which has been the strongest bloodline in the Gong family for more than two thousand years.
The sixth-level bloodline means that she can reach the sixth-level cultivation in the future. If it is higher, it is not possible to return to her ancestors and reach the seventh level!
He was previously worried that the child born to Lan'er and Chen Ling might not reach the fourth level of bloodline.
After all, Fa Xiu does not have the bloodline power of Barbarian Xiu. Once combined with it, the blood of a child will be greatly diluted.
This is also the reason why barbarian tribes rarely marry Dharma cultivators.
But now, Xinghuo's bloodline not only has not declined, but has surpassed that of his daughter.
This was something he never expected.
Feeling the rich ancient fire clan blood in Xing Huo's body, his face became more and more excited.
But soon his brows furrowed slightly, his eyes swept over Gong Mulan and Chen Ling, and he said in a deep voice, "Ling'er, Lan'er, with Huo'er's current bloodline, you can only wash your marrow with the heart blood of the holy beast."
"But a few days ago, the elders of the clan just discussed and decided to give a drop of the holy beast's hard work accumulated over the past hundred years to Mo Li, the newborn child of Mo Gu."
"His bloodline has barely reached the sixth level. If he uses this heart blood to cleanse his marrow, it will be able to stabilize at the sixth level."
Hearing Gong Nanming's words, Chen Ling frowned, but he was relieved quickly and didn't say much.
After all, he has confidence in his heart that as his children grow up, as long as their sense of belonging to the family increases, it will be a matter of time before their bloodline improves.
But Gong Mulan didn't think so. She said with a serious face, "Dad, it takes a hundred years to condense a drop of the holy beast's essence and blood. How can it be used by the Mo family?"
Let the child who has not yet emerged from the moon travel hundreds of thousands of miles with her to the ancient tribe, just for the holy beast's heart and blood.
But we can't just miss it.
And if it is given to the Mo family and the son grows up in the future, then the Gong family will be completely at a disadvantage compared to the Mo family.
Gong Nanming had naturally considered this matter, and the reason why he gave it to Mo Li was simply because he still had half of the Gong family's blood flowing through him.
"Husband, since Lan'er has given birth to a son, naturally this drop of hard work will be used for our grandson!"
Lu Shan also said.
Gong Nanming pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice, "This matter was decided by the elders of the tribe. I'm afraid it will be difficult to change."
Hearing this, a look of disappointment flashed across Gong Laner's pretty face.
But soon, he turned his eyes and said decisively, "Dad, doesn't the tribe have a blood competition?"
"I want to challenge Mo Gu and win this drop of blood essence for Huo'er!"
Seeing his daughter's resolute look, Gong Nanming shook his head and said, "In recent years, Mo Gu's cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds. Now he is at the late fourth level, and my father can only tie with him."
"How can you be his opponent?"
"Late fourth level!" Gong Mulan frowned.
Originally, Mo Gu's cultivation level was only a little higher than hers, but she didn't expect that in just over five years, he had already reached the late fourth level.
It seems that in this short period of time, all the resources that originally belonged to him have been occupied by him.
"In the late fourth level, I also want to challenge!"
"This is not only for Huo'er, but also related to my Gong family's status in the tribe in the future."
Gong Mulan insisted.
"But he has already condensed his bloodline magical power, you will not be his opponent!" Gong Nanming frowned and shook his head.
"Father-in-law, can I fight on Lan'er's behalf?"
At this time, Chen Ling spoke up.
Seeing Gong Mulan's firm attitude, he could only support it.
Of course, he also wanted to try to see how powerful his dragon thunder body actually was?
"you?"
"As Lan'er's Taoist companion and Huo'er's father, there is no problem for you to participate in the tribal blood challenge."
"It's just that in the bloodline challenge, only the power of bloodline is allowed to be used, and the power of magic cultivation is not allowed!"
"And the tribal challenge is all about going all out and not showing mercy. You have to think carefully."
Gong Nanming looked at Chen Ling and explained.
Originally, the holy beast's essence and blood were given to the Mo family, but he could only accept it.
After all, Mo Li's talent lies there.
But now that his grandson has better blood talents, he is naturally unwilling to do so.
But considering the strength of the Mo family, we still have to be careful.
After all, Bloodline Challenge is not a child's play house.
A drop of blood from the holy beast is enough to make many people willing to risk their lives to fight for it.
"If you can participate, there will be no problem!" Chen Ling said confidently.
Gong Mulan didn't say much when she heard Chen Ling's words. She had great confidence in Chen Ling.
"Well, since you all think so, let's challenge Mo Gu!"
Gong Nanming said in a deep voice.
