Chapter 442 Evolution, Imperial Rewards, New Features (8k)
hum!
The Soul Devouring Insects at the foot of the mountain sensed the surging demonic power in the corpses of the fourth-order spring locusts and became restless, emitting sharp hisses:
“Very clever”

Know what is good.

Fu Changsheng's lips curled up slightly, and his mind moved.

One of the strongest soul-eating insects flew out of the swarm first and pounced on the corpse of the spring locust, piercing its sharp mouthparts into the emerald green armor.

Gurgling.

Greedily sucking the essence of demonic power that had not yet dissipated.

Fu Changsheng watched with nervousness and anticipation.

As time goes by.

The body of the Soul-Eating Insect began to expand at a speed visible to the naked eye. Its originally pitch-black armor gradually took on an emerald-like luster, and its blood-colored lines became brighter, as if it was about to drip blood.

"hiss--!"

The Soul Devouring Insect suddenly let out a painful hiss, its body trembled violently, and sticky white threads began to seep out of its smooth armor:

"This is…"

Fu Changsheng was stunned for a moment.

Because these silk threads quickly entangled, they wrapped the soul-eating insect into a fist-sized white cocoon.

The spiritual consciousness is immersed in it.

It was discovered that the white cocoon hanging upside down under the ancient mysterious vine had extremely strong vitality.

After a while.

Plop, plop!
It was like the sound of a human heartbeat echoing inside the cocoon.

It's as if something is changing inside:
“It’s going pretty well.”

Fu Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the Soul Devouring Bug did not digest the energy of the Spring Locusts instantly, at least it did not burst:
"I hope the Soul Devouring Insect that emerges from its cocoon will evolve."

He then summoned out five of the strongest soul-eating insects from the swarm.

These soul-eating insects have gone through many battles, and the blood-colored patterns on their shells have solidified into substance, with the edges of their mouthparts glowing with a cold light.

"Sigh~"

The chosen soul-eating insect hissed with excitement.

He even wagged his tail to please Fu Changsheng.

"go."

As Fu Changsheng swung his sword.

Five soul-eating insects immediately flapped their wings and flew up.

Like five black lightning bolts, they struck different parts of the spring locust's corpse.

The first one landed on the compound eyes of the spring locust, and its sharp mouthparts pierced into the amber eyeball, greedily sucking the remaining demonic essence. Its body expanded rapidly, and the blood-colored lines on its shell flowed like magma, but soon, its movements became slow, and its six legs trembled slightly, obviously unable to withstand the impact of the fourth-level demonic power:
"Is this the limit?"

Fu Changsheng frowned and was about to intervene.

But it suddenly curled up into a ball, with white threads oozing out of its body. It quickly wrapped itself into a cocoon and hung upside down under the ancient vine:
“You know how to do things within your capacity, which is good.”

Fu Changsheng shifted his gaze to the other one.

The second soul-eating insect was obviously more greedy.

It drilled directly into the chest of the spring locust, as if it was afraid of being robbed, and devoured the remaining demon pill fragments in the heart. The violent energy instantly poured into its body, and the patterns on the insect armor were as bright as lava.

"No!"

By the time Fu Changsheng tried to stop him, it was too late.

But the Soul Devouring Insect's abdomen suddenly swelled up like a ball.

"boom!"

There was a muffled sound.

The soul-eating insect exploded on the spot, and the emerald green demonic power mixed with blood mist exploded, and the body parts splattered everywhere.

The remaining insects were frightened and retreated together, making low growls of fear.

Fu Changsheng rolled up his sleeves and swept away the remains of the exploded body:

"The flesh and blood of a fourth-level monster is indeed overbearing... It seems that the Soul Devouring Insect's ability to bear it is also extremely limited. What a pity for a third-level mid-stage Soul Devouring Insect."

Fu Changsheng shook his head and turned his gaze to the third one.

This soul-eating insect has obviously learned its lesson and is extremely smart.

It did not swallow it directly, but first pierced the veins of the spring locust with its mouthparts, slowly absorbing the demonic power, and after its body adapted, it gnawed its flesh and blood bit by bit. Its shell gradually turned from pitch black to dark blue, and the blood-colored lines squirmed like a living thing. Finally, it successfully survived the metamorphosis period and turned into a green and red cocoon, hanging upside down under the ancient vine, and there was a faint sound of wind and thunder:
"what?"

When he was worried that a similar bursting phenomenon would occur again.

The next scene.

It actually surprised him quite a bit.

However, the last two soul-eating insects actually cooperated very well.

They bite the belly of the spring locust together, sharing the impact of the demonic power with each other.

One of them suddenly lost control during the swallowing process, its body swelled up like a ball and was about to burst, but the other one suddenly pounced on it and pierced its companion's shell with its mouthparts, forcibly sharing its demonic power.

Take a closer look.

Found these two soul-eating insects, apparently one male and one female:
"Could it be that they are not husband and wife?"

before this.

The only way for soul-eating insects to evolve is by devouring their own kind in large numbers.

and so.

He was still quite surprised by the performance of these two soul-eating insects.

hum!
Both of them also stopped while they were ahead.

It was not insatiable, and stopped devouring after it had almost eaten. One blue and one red, they entangled with each other and turned into twin cocoons hanging upside down under the ancient mysterious vine.

A hint of satisfaction flashed in Fu Changsheng's eyes:
"It seems that the intelligence of some Soul Devouring Insects has significantly improved after breaking through to the third level."

With a wave of his sleeves, he collected the remaining corpses and sealed them, intending to hand them over to his fourth sister, the Valley of Ten Thousand Beasts, for research.

at the same time.

A familiar mechanical voice sounded in his mind:
"Ding"

"You have added a fragment of the Ten Thousand Insects Sutra to your family, and gained 600 family contribution points."

Then came the prompt tone:
"You have given your all and successfully protected the people of Huainan Prefecture. You have been awarded a special chance to win a prize. Do you want to redeem it?"

coming!

Fu Changsheng took a deep breath.

Without thinking, I immediately:

"exchange!"

The thought just came to mind.

The panel vibrates.

A large amount of yellow light surged.

Followed by.

There was an ancient box in his storage bag. As the restriction was opened, he saw a green pill bottle inside. A drop of dark golden blood was suspended in the bottle. Mysterious insect patterns flowed on the surface, faintly emitting a terrifying pressure that made all insects submit:
"This is."

Was hesitating.

A reminder sounded in my mind.

"The essence and blood of the ancient insect emperor?" Fu Changsheng's pupils shrank slightly and his breathing became rapid.

This is a legendary treasure!
According to ancient records, the ancient insect king is the ancestor of the insect race. A drop of blood can make ordinary spirit insects undergo a qualitative transformation and even awaken their ancient bloodline. If it can be refined, it can not only make the spirit-eating insects evolve, but it may even break through the shackles and reach a higher level!
Fu Changsheng suppressed the excitement in his heart and glanced at the floating cocoons.

"Perhaps... we can take this opportunity to help the Soul Devouring Insect take a step further!"

He took a deep breath and lightly tapped his fingertips, dividing the drop of [Ancient Insect King's Blood Essence] into three parts, each of which was integrated into three cocoons.

"Om-"

The moment the essence and blood merged, the three cocoons trembled violently, and dense golden lines appeared on the surface, wriggling as if alive. An ancient and fierce aura emanated from the cocoons, and the air around them became sticky.

"Crack!"

The first cocoon cracked open, and a dark gold soul-eating insect with six wings on its back emerged from the cocoon! Its body was several times larger than before, with mysterious patterns all over its shell, a mouthpart as sharp as a knife, and six compound eyes flashing with cold light.

"A quasi-fourth-level soul-eating insect!" Fu Changsheng's heart was shocked.

This soul-eating insect not only broke through the grade, but also awakened the bloodline of the [Six-Winged Golden Locust], and its speed and attack power increased several times!
"hiss--"

The second cocoon also burst, and a red soul-eating insect with barbs on its back slowly crawled out. A faint flame burned on its carapace, and sparks flew when its mouth opened.

"Fire attribute mutation!"

Fu Changsheng was pleasantly surprised. This Soul Devouring Insect devoured the fire power of the Spring Locust and merged with the blood essence of the Ancient Insect King, and it unexpectedly mutated into a [Red Flame Soul Devouring Insect], which could spit out flames that could burn gold and molten stone, and was specifically designed to defeat wood and ice monsters!
"boom!"

The third cocoon made the loudest noise, and the entire cocoon exploded. A huge soul-eating insect covered in black bone armor slowly stood up. Its carapace was as heavy as a mountain, its six legs were like knives, and its mouthparts were hideous and terrifying, exuding a suffocating sense of oppression.

"Black-armored Soul-devouring Insect King!"

Fu Changsheng took a deep breath. This Soul Devouring Insect had not only reached the Quasi-Fourth Level, but had also awakened the bloodline of the [Black Beetle King]. Its defense was abnormal, and it was difficult for monsters of the same level to break through its defense!

The three mutated soul-eating insects flapped their wings together, landed in front of Fu Changsheng, and lowered their bodies to show their submission.

Fu Changsheng was very satisfied.

This special lottery directly gave him the combat power equivalent to that of three fake Dan. Unfortunately, the Soul-Devouring Insects had poor aptitude before, and most of the energy of [Ancient Insect King's Essence Blood] was used to transform their bloodlines. Otherwise, they could have directly broken through to the fourth level.

Just when he was about to leave the Five Elements Space.

However, the message tree, which had not had any news for a long time, suddenly trembled:
"News from the upper realm!"

He suddenly became excited.

"Om-"

The branches and leaves of the message tree moved without wind, emitting a faint silver glow, and dense runes appeared on the leaves, as if some kind of power that transcends boundaries was transmitting information.

Fu Changsheng's expression condensed, and he immediately raised his hand and made a hand gesture, and a ray of spiritual light shot into the message tree.

"Wow!"

The runes on the leaves suddenly lit up, turning into a light curtain that slowly unfolded. In the light curtain, a line of ancient characters emerged, written in a sharp style, revealing an unquestionable majesty:

"Young man from the lower realm, can you find Ouyang Jin?"

Fu Changsheng's eyes fixed.

This is news from the mysterious person who taught the "Tianxiao Leiying Sword Classic" last time.

The text continues to appear:

"Recently, I have sensed the fluctuations of the sword energy of the Thunder Prison in the lower realm. After deduction, Ouyang Jin has appeared in the world. This girl may not be called Ouyang Jin, but she was born with innate sword energy. You can follow this clue to find it."

"Send back this woman's whereabouts, and you will obtain the second level of the Heavenly Thunder Shadow Sword Canon."

"If you delay, the opportunity will be lost."

This is the end of the text, no further information.

Fu Changsheng frowned slightly.

Because according to the system's deduction, the "Tianxiao Leiying Sword Classic" bestowed by this great being from the upper realm has four major drawbacks.

First of all, this technique is only suitable for innate thunder spirit bodies. In addition, it is easy to cause "thunder nightmare soul devouring" because the spiritual power is one-way polarized. Excessive extraction of thunder elements will lead to imbalance of the five elements. Long-term practitioners will form a "thunder erosion hole" in the Dantian, and the Yuanying stage will inevitably suffer from spiritual power backlash.

If he hadn't been more careful, he would have been harmed by him long ago:
"Humph"

"You still want me to find someone? Dream on!"

but.

There was an obvious sense of urgency in the words of this person from the upper realm.

Obviously, the other party seemed to be extremely concerned about Ouyang Jin's whereabouts, and even went so far as to send him messages again and again:
"It seems that this Ouyang Jin may be hiding some secrets..."

ponder for a moment.

Fu Changsheng did not reply to the message and just pretended not to see it.

No matter how powerful this being is, he cannot find him through the message tree. And it seems that people from the upper realm cannot come here privately, so what else does he have to worry about?

A thought.

Come out from the five elements space.

A spell was cast in the secret room, the formation was activated, and he walked straight towards the Valley of Ten Thousand Beasts.

In the Valley of Ten Thousand Beasts, spiritual mist lingers, the roars of beasts and the chirping of birds can be heard one after another, and stone platforms and animal pens are scattered around. Many children of the Fu family are taming spiritual beasts, feeding them, training them, or recording changes in their bloodlines.

On a high platform in the center, Fu Changli, wearing a dark green dress, was sitting cross-legged with her hands clasped together. Dozens of spirit beast eggs surrounded her body. Each eggshell was engraved with intricate runes, and faint life fluctuations could be heard emanating from it.

She noticed footsteps coming from behind her, opened her eyes and saw it was Fu Changsheng, and quickly stood up and saluted:

"Master, if you have anything to say, just call me. Why do you have to come here in person?"

Fu Changsheng smiled slightly and waved his sleeves. A huge insect corpse fell to the ground with a bang. It was the remains of the fourth-order spring locust!

"hiss--"

Inside the Valley of Ten Thousand Beasts, all the spirit beasts instantly became restless, and low-level demon beasts even prostrated themselves on the ground, trembling in fear!
Fu Changli's pupils shrank slightly. She heard that the master had killed a fourth-order spring locust, but she didn't know how the corpse was dealt with. As someone who had studied spring locusts for a long time, she had a fairly complete fourth-order spring locust corpse in front of her. How could she not be excited?
"Master, do you want the corpse of this fourth-level insect demon?"

"My Soul Devouring Insect devoured a portion of the essence, and the rest is for you to study. Although this fourth-order spring locust is dead, its demonic power is still very strong. One of my third-order mid-stage Soul Devouring Insects self-destructed after devouring more than half of it, so you have to be extra careful when studying it."

"Please rest assured, Patriarch, we in the Valley of Ten Thousand Beasts will definitely not waste any of the materials."

Fu Changli's eyes flashed with excitement, and his fingers gently stroked the insect's armor, as if he was touching a treasure:
"The fourth-level insect demon's shell, tendons, compound eyes, and even the remaining demon pill fragments... these are all rare materials! If we can analyze the secrets contained in them, perhaps we can take the Fu family's spiritual beast cultivation a step further!"

Fu Changli was already impatient to start the autopsy, but out of the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of a black insect egg in the box in Fu Changsheng's hand, along with a replica of a jade slip:
"Master, this is..."

Fu Changsheng handed her the insect eggs and jade slips:
"The high-level insect eggs found in the Ghost Face Insect Master's storage bag are of unknown species, but they are at least of Xuan-level bloodline, and may even be of Earth-level bloodline. In addition, this jade slip is the Ghost Face Insect Master's "Ten Thousand Insects Sutra", which contains several methods of cultivating spirit insects, which should be quite useful to you."

The collection of Jindan Zhenren.

The Insect Sutra comes from the most mysterious lineage of Insect Masters.

The continuous surprises made Fu Changli's breathing quicken and he felt a little dizzy. It took him a while to recover.
"Thank you, Master, for the reward!"

I couldn't even say no. I held back my excitement.

He carefully took the eggs with both hands.

A green light appeared in the palm of my hand and slowly seeped into the eggshell. I closed my eyes and sensed it.

After a while.

She suddenly opened her eyes, with a flash of shock in her eyes:
"This insect egg... has the 'soul-eating' property!"

Fu Changsheng raised his eyebrows:
"Soul Eater?"

Fu Changli nodded, his tone solemn:

"The life inside this egg is born with the ability to devour the soul. If it hatches, it will most likely be a variant of the 'Soul Devouring Demonic Worm'!"

Fu Changsheng pondered for a moment:
"Can it be tamed?"

Fu Changli smiled confidently:
"Don't worry, Patriarch. I have obtained a secret beast-taming technique in the Kunlun Secret Realm, which is specifically used to suppress its ferocity. As long as it hasn't hatched yet, I can plant a contract in its soul!"

She pointed her fingertips and a drop of blood fell on the insect eggs. Then she clasped her hands together and green runes emerged and slowly merged into the eggshell.

The insect eggs trembled slightly, as if resisting, but under Fu Changli's spiritual pressure, they finally calmed down, and a faint blood pattern appeared on the surface of the eggshell.

"It's done!"

Fu Changli let out a long sigh, his eyes full of joy:
"Master, I have a 75% chance of hatching these eggs. Please wait for good news."

Fu Changsheng nodded with satisfaction:
"give it to you."

Fu Changli carefully put away the eggs and said with a smile:

"Master, you gave me three great gifts this time. If there is anything you need or if you need any help, just let me know."

Fu Changsheng shook his head:
"One family should not have two different opinions"

Fu Changli blinked:
"Then I won't be polite! When this soul-devouring devil worm hatches, I will be the first to take it to Xuanxiao Sect to test its power!"

The Xuanxiao Sect almost destroyed their stronghold in Huizhou Prefecture.

Fu Changli always kept it in mind.

Fu Changsheng said:

"We must avenge Xuan Xiao Sect, but there is no rush."

There was a pause.

Fu Changsheng sighed slightly and said:

"By the way, Fourth Sister, if you have time, go and accompany Ningning once in a while."

When Ningning returned to the Fu family, it was originally for her to learn the art of taming beasts from Fu Changli. The person Ningning had the most contact with in the Fu family was the fourth sister.

Fu Changli also heard about Ningning's situation and nodded quickly. He felt very sad about what happened to his niece, but the Seventh Prince's Mansion was the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty, not a purple mansion force like the Xuanxiao Sect.

Also.

The culprit who murdered Ningning, the Princess of the Seventh County, is dead.

As for the unfaithful man Zhou Xuanming, the other party is now the legitimate Prince of the Seventh County. Even if they want to touch him, they will not find a chance for a while.

The atmosphere seemed a bit heavy.

Fu Changsheng then said:
"By the way, has the Valley of All Beasts cultivated any new spiritual beasts recently?"

Fu Changli smiled proudly:
"Of course! Patriarch, follow me!"

She led Fu Changsheng to the depths of the valley and stopped in front of a stone platform. On the stone platform, three huge spirit beasts were sleeping with their eyes closed, emitting a strong aura.

"This is……"

Fu Changsheng's eyes fixed.

Fu Changli smiled and said:
"The three-headed 'Red Scale Earth Dragon' was bred by me by crossbreeding the Earth Fire Python and the Pangolin. Its defense is comparable to that of a third-level early stage demon beast, and it is naturally endowed with the dual attributes of earth and fire, making it the most suitable for attacking cities and capturing strongholds!"

Fu Changsheng looked at them carefully and saw that the scales of the three earth dragons were red, their backs had barbs, their claws were as sharp as knives, and sparks even flew with their breathing.

"good."

He nodded approvingly:

"Fourth sister's talent in taming beasts is indeed extraordinary."

Fu Changli raised his chin proudly:

"Of course! Patriarch, don't worry. When we go to war with Xuanxiao Sect, the spirit beasts of our Ten Thousand Beasts Valley will definitely let those foreign races see what a real 'beast tide' is!"

Fu Changsheng laughed:
"Okay! Then I'll wait and see!"

Come out of the Valley of Beasts.

More than a month passed.

Fu Changsheng, who was teaching the method of making the Time Talisman in the Talisman Making Hall, heard a buzzing sound from his waist. He looked down and saw that it was a message from the Zhenshi Division.

Chief disciple Fu Yongfu glanced at it and couldn't help but stepped forward and asked:
"Master, have you received the reward from the court?"

A battle against the beast tide.

The Fu family should be the first to make the contribution.

In addition, the master also killed the fourth-level spring locust and the golden elixir ghost-faced insect master. This reward must be more generous than any previous one.

The whole clan.

Everyone is looking forward to the arrival of today.

and so.

Everyone who was originally going to be teleported back to Huizhou Prefecture found various reasons to stay in their fiefdom in Yunshan County.

Fu Changsheng smiled and nodded:
"Yes, the people from the Zhenshi Division will arrive in the afternoon. Ask Yongshou and the others to set up the incense table and sacrificial supplies in advance to welcome the imperial edict."

Fu Yongfu was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately responded with a cupped hand: "Disciple will arrange it right away!" After that, he turned around and walked out of the talisman making hall quickly. A voice came from afar: "Yongshou! Quickly gather the clansmen to prepare the incense table, the imperial court's reward has arrived!"

The whole Fu family was in an uproar. The servants rushed to tell each other, and the clan members changed into formal clothes. In less than half an hour, a nine-tier incense table was set up in front of the main hall of the Fu family, with sandalwood curling and spiritual fruit tributes displayed in an orderly manner. Fu Changsheng changed into a black robe of the head of the family, with a jade belt around his waist decorated with twelve talismans, and sat in the main seat in the main hall.

"Father, the team from the Zhenshi Division has arrived outside the mountain gate." Fu Yongshou hurried in to report.

Fu Changsheng nodded slightly: "Open the middle door, play the ceremonial music, and follow me to welcome you."

Everyone followed Fu Changsheng.

Fu Yongfu couldn't help but whispered to Fu Yongdan:
"Seventh sister, I heard that the court recently issued a decree of favor, specifically promoting all the noble families. Do you think our Fu family will be selected this time and promoted to a sixth-rank noble family?"

"Myna, are you confused while refining the Time Talisman? The first requirement for a sixth-rank family is that there must be a Jindan Zhenren in the clan. Our Fu family also made great contributions during this beast tide, but the Luo family also made a lot of efforts. You want to ascend to the sixth rank in one step, it's impossible."

Fu Yongshang, who was on their side, heard this.

He also smiled and said:
"Seventh sister is right. When I was doing business, I heard that the imperial court has a fixed number of sixth-rank noble families and above, unlike those below the seventh rank, who can be granted titles as long as the conditions are met. With two places like Jingzhou and Wuzhou that are in short supply, how can we spare a sixth-rank noble family?"

Fu Yongfu heard this.

Somewhat disappointed.

but.

He was just having a bold fantasy.

As everyone stood still.

After half a cup of tea.

Outside the Demon-Controlling City.

Three figures came walking on the clouds, their aura was as deep as the abyss!
The leader, dressed in a black official robe, with a golden seal hanging from his waist and a solemn expression, was none other than the deputy director of the "Xuntianjian" of the Great Zhou Dynasty's Zhenshi Division.

Behind him, two deacons of the Zhenshi Division each held a black flag with golden patterns. The flags fluttered, with the words "Zhenshi" written on them. The strokes were as sharp as knives, and the pressure was awe-inspiring:
"Greetings, Master Supervisor!"

Fu Changsheng stood at the front, with twenty Purple Mansion cultivators lined up behind him. Further behind him were hundreds of Foundation Establishment members of the Fu family, who all saluted together with Fu Changsheng.

The supervisor glanced at everyone in the Fu family, nodded slightly, and then spoke solemnly:
"Fu Changsheng accepts the order!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he waved his sleeves and a golden imperial edict unfolded in the air. In an instant, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth gathered and turned into golden runes, floating in the air, majestic and magnificent!

"It's up to heaven, the emperor's edict says——"

"The Fu family of Huainan Prefecture, in this beast tide, killed the fourth-level monster, wiped out the insect master disaster, and protected the Great Wall. Their merits are outstanding!"

"Specially granted—"

"A volume of "Heavenly Treasure Records: Spiritual Beasts" will help the Fu family take another step forward in beast control!"

"In addition, I will reward you with one million spirit stones and a third-level spirit vein origin to commend your contribution!"

When the imperial edict was read out to this point, although everyone in the Fu family showed joy on their faces, to them, these were just icing on the cake and not a big surprise.

Fu Yongdan transmitted the message to Fu Yongfu:
“See, I was right.”

Fu Yongfu's last bit of fantasy was shattered, and he felt somewhat depressed. At the same time, he wondered if the imperial court was a little stingy and the rewards were too little.

Just thinking about it.

But the voice of the supervisor above my head suddenly rose:
"Based on the Fu family's past performance and potential assessment, they meet the minimum requirements of the Grant Order and are hereby promoted to a sixth-rank family!"

The voice of the Supervisor exploded like thunder, echoing in the ears of everyone in the Fu family.

"Promoted to a sixth-rank family out of the ordinary!"

In an instant, the entire Fu family, whether it was the Purple Mansion elders, the foundation-building deacons, or the young disciples, all froze in place, as if they were frozen in place by an invisible force.

Fu Yongfu originally complained that the imperial court's reward was too little, but now he was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth: "Sixth...sixth rank?! Seventh sister, am I dreaming?"

He turned his head and looked at Fu Yongdan.

Fu Yongdan also swallowed hard. This reward was so great that it seemed unreal to her.

Fu Yongshang, who was originally calculating the value of the imperial reward, reacted at this moment and said to Fu Yongfu with a smile:
"Eighth brother, you really got it right!"

The imperial court actually made an exception and promoted the Fu family to the sixth rank.

this means.

In the future, the Fu family will be able to obtain more power and resources.

Advancing to a fifth-grade golden elixir family is no longer a dream.

Behind them, the Fu family disciples who were in the foundation-building stage were in an uproar.

"Sixth rank! Our Fu family has become a sixth rank family!"

"Oh my God! My Fu family has come to this day!"

"From now on, who will dare to look down on us Fu family members when we go out?!"

however.

Although Fu Changsheng was happy in front of everyone, he felt that there was no such thing as a free lunch. Seeing that the supervisor had obviously not finished reading the imperial edict, he coughed lightly, and the people behind him immediately tactfully fell silent, becoming respectful and not daring to say anything more.

The supervisor saw this and continued.

But he suddenly changed the subject and his voice became cold and serious:

"Yes——"

"The imperial court has ordered that the Fu family must annihilate the two major foreign Purple Mansion forces within 20 years before they can be officially conferred the sixth rank!"

"If you fail to do so within the time limit, the reward from the Sixth Rank Family will be taken back!"

This statement came out.

Everyone in the Fu family below immediately raised their heads.

but.

Fu Changsheng thought this was reasonable.

With the current strength of their Fu family, it is not impossible to destroy the two foreign Purple Mansion forces, and there is still ample time of twenty years, which is completely enough. He immediately stepped forward and took the imperial edict:
"The Fu family accepted the order and expressed their gratitude!"

After Fu Changsheng received the imperial edict, he immediately bowed and said:

"The three of you have come from afar. The Fu family has prepared some wine. Please enjoy your visit."

The Supervisor shook his head slightly, flicking his sleeves and saying, "Master Fu, you are too polite. I still need to rush to the Luo family to announce the decree, so I can't stay for long." He glanced at everyone in the Fu family and said meaningfully, "Since the decree of grace was issued three months ago, the Fu family is the first to receive this honor."

Fu Changsheng's heart moved when he heard this, and he immediately took out three brocade boxes from his storage bag. The box surface was embroidered with auspicious cloud patterns in gold thread, and there was a faint spiritual light flowing.

"This is all thanks to the blessings of all the gentlemen. I hope the three of you will accept this small gift." When Fu Changsheng handed over the brocade box, he tapped the bottom of the box three times with his fingertips. "I heard that the Supervisor is an expert in talismans. This box happens to contain a 'Punch Spirit Pupil Talisman' made from the compound eyes of a fourth-level spring locust."

There was a gleam in the supervisor's eyes.

The brocade boxes of the two deacons behind him contained third-grade spiritual honey and hundred-year-old spiritual tea, both of which were specialties of the Fu family.

The three of them looked at each other and nodded in satisfaction.

After seeing off the three messengers, Fu Changsheng did not immediately gather his clansmen to celebrate, but walked towards the Fu family ancestral hall alone.

In the ancestral hall, sandalwood incense was curling, and the tablets of ancestors from past generations were quietly displayed, solemn and dignified. Fu Changsheng held the imperial edict in both hands, walked slowly to the altar at the top, and respectfully placed the imperial edict in the center.

"Ancestors, today the Fu family has been granted by the imperial court and promoted to a quasi-sixth-rank family. This is a great event that has not happened in our family for thousands of years!"

"Changsheng will live up to the legacy of his ancestors and lead the Fu family to further progress!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a ray of spiritual light gathered at his fingertips and lightly touched the imperial edict. In an instant, the golden runes on the imperial edict suddenly lit up, turning into streams of brilliant light that merged into the formation of the ancestral hall.

"Om-"

The entire ancestral hall trembled slightly, as if an invisible force was surging. The incense on the altar suddenly became strong, and the green smoke condensed and did not dissipate, actually outlining an illusory "quasi-sixth-rank family" fortune totem in the air!
At the same time, the "Family Jade Seal" in Fu Changsheng's body suddenly burst into brilliant light!
The four characters "Seventh Rank Fu Family" originally engraved on the jade seal now wriggled like a living thing, slowly changing, and finally turned into - "Quasi-Sixth Rank Fu Family"!
On the surface of the jade seal, the spiritual patterns that were originally slightly dim now sparkled brightly, with a faint dragon aura entwined around them, symbolizing that the Fu family had officially entered the ranks of quasi-sixth-grade families!
"boom--"

At the same time as the jade seal was transforming.

In the five elements space.

The "Mountain and River Clan Cauldron" that suppressed the family's fortune also shook violently!

On top of the tripod.

It turned out that half of the spiritual pattern was condensed by the luck.

This is a change that has never happened before.

at the same time.

The panel in his sea of ​​consciousness trembled, and a large amount of yellow light surged. Then, a line of text appeared:
[Shanhezhen Clan Cauldron: Level 80 (100/)]

Judging from the above values.

But it increased the progress by half.

Fu Changsheng looked at the third-level spiritual vein origin in his hand. If he refined this thing, he wondered if he could fully manifest the second function of the Shanhe Clan Cauldron.
