Chapter 609 - 243: Jianan Temple’s Ambush (Part 4)
The tip of the flaming arrow emitted an eerie blue glow, with a terrifying power that made one’s heart tremble!
Before he could understand what was happening with the arrow.
The flaming arrow had already struck heavily upon the golden bell at its body surface!
Crack!
The gem at the arrow’s tip, glowing with blue light, emitted a crisp sound, shattering in an instant!
A large amount of ghostly blue electric glow erupted at once, tearing apart the golden bell in the blink of an eye!
Monk Hui Kong was greatly frightened, and suddenly the monk’s robe on his body burst with rays of golden light!
Part of the golden light resisted the wildly dancing electric glow around, while another part gathered into a golden bowl, blocking the front!
Thud!
The thunderous electric glow tore through the protection of the golden bell, and the flaming arrow struck fiercely against the golden bowl!
A muffled sound arose, and the golden bowl was cracked instantly by the terrifying power carried by the flaming arrow!
Cracks spread all over, seemingly about to shatter completely.
Monk Hui Kong retreated frantically!
Crack!
Plop!
As soon as he moved, the golden bowl could no longer withstand it and shattered instantly.
The flaming arrow pierced through his left eye, going deep by an inch!
"Ah!"
Monk Hui Kong screamed in pain, instantly pulling out the flaming arrow with his hand!
The flaming arrow trembled violently, and terrifying flames on its surface scorched his palm.
Monk Hui Kong loosened his grip in pain, and without caring about anything else, immediately transformed the monk’s robe into a golden light, fleeing far away!
"Big brother?"
In the void, Shen Chonghong recognized the person who acted as his big brother Shen Chongming the moment he saw the flaming arrow.
In the forest below, a figure flew rapidly, catching the swaying Shen Chonghong.
"Chonghong!"
"You..."
Supporting his brother, feeling the chaotic spiritual power inside him, Shen Chongming’s face changed drastically.
"Big brother, I’m fine."
Forcing himself to endure the turbulent blood and qi within, as well as waves of weakness, Shen Chonghong forced a smile, then removed the storage bag from his waist and stuffed it into his brother’s hand.
"Inside this... the things inside... are very important!"
"It’s... Alchemy Dao..."
Before he could finish speaking, the backlash from the damaged foundation of the Immortal Embryo threw him into unconsciousness.
"Chonghong!?"
Seeing this, Shen Chongming looked anxious, immediately carrying him and transforming into electric glow, rushing towards Yunshui City.
...
Yunshui City.
In the manor’s side room, Shen Yuan was drinking tea and chatting leisurely with Jiang Xiuqi when he suddenly felt a slight tremor coming from the White Jade Turtle Shell in the Sea of Consciousness.
He immediately split a trace of Divine Sense into the Sea of Consciousness.
Moments later—
"Great grandfather, what’s the matter with you?"
Beside him, Shen Xiubai was the first to notice Shen Yuan’s slight change in expression.
Jiang Xiuqi also put down his tea cup: "Fellow Daoist Shen, what happened?"
Shen Yuan said with a solemn face; "It seems some juniors in the family encountered danger."
"But there should be no life-threatening danger."
The three chatted for a while longer, then a flash of electric glow streaked across the sky, landing in Yunshui City.
Noticing the commotion, the three walked out of the side room and saw Shen Chongming hurriedly arriving with the unconscious Shen Chonghong.
"Grandfather!"
"Elder Jiang."
The three approached and, seeing Shen Chonghong in his arms with disordered breath and unconscious, Jiang Xiuqi’s expression changed slightly.
"This child... burnt his Foundation of the Immortal Embryo!?"
"This..."
Burning the Foundation of the Immortal Embryo!
Upon hearing this, Shen Chongming’s face drastically changed!
"Grandfather..."
"What exactly happened to Chonghong?"
Shen Yuan spoke with a somber face.
Calculating someone schemed against the Shen Family, he immediately sent his son and grandson to assist the younger generation of the Shen Family outside.
Never expected to be a step too late.
"It’s the bald monk from Jianan Temple!"
"When grandson reached the edge of Huaisang County, Chonghong was fighting with a cultivator from Jianan Temple at the Fetal Breathing Perfection Realm."
"This bald monk was shot blind in one eye by grandson and fled."
Indeed, it’s Jianan Temple!
Shen Yuan clenched his fist slightly, a nameless fury rising in his heart.
"Quickly put this child down, let me see if I can stabilize his injuries."
Jiang Xiuqi, with a slightly dazed expression, hurriedly said.
If the Foundation of the Immortal Embryo is damaged and his injuries can’t be stabilized, at least his cultivation will be lost, at worst the Immortal Embryo will collapse and spiritual power will cause his body to explode.
Upon hearing this, Shen Chongming quickly carried Shen Chonghong into the side room.
Jiang Xiuqi also hurriedly activated his own spiritual power to begin healing him.
"Xiubai, stand guard here."
Seeing that the healing was not going to end quickly, Shen Yuan instructed in a low voice before taking Shen Chongming outside the side room.
"Chonghong being stationed in Huaisang, how did he suddenly appear at the edge of Huaisang County?"
Hearing this question, Shen Chongming only then reacted and quickly took out the storage bag, saying: "This is what Chonghong gave to grandson, saying it’s very important."
Shen Yuan took the storage bag, swept through it with his Divine Sense, and then took out several jade scrolls.
After some examination, a brilliant gleam suddenly flashed in his eyes!
"What a good child..."
"Grandfather, what is this..."
Shen Chongming was curious, wondering what on earth it was that made his brother riskily rush back to Yunshui City.
"See for yourself."
Handing the jade scrolls to Shen Chongming, Shen Yuan said solemnly.
Taking the jade scrolls, Shen Chongming examined them roughly with his Divine Sense, his face instantly showing astonishment!
"This is... a complete inheritance of the Alchemy Dao!?"
He spoke in a trembling whisper.
The Shen Family had no foundation in the Alchemy Dao.
And what Shen Chonghong brought back this time, from the most basic knowledge of spirit herbs and medicines, to the properties and pharmacology, alchemy techniques, pill formulas, everything was included!
With these things, the Shen Family could soon produce a group of pill masters, and in a hundred years or so, they might have an Alchemy Master, becoming a force equal to Qiyun Valley in the Alchemy Dao.
