The mist surrounds the moon and the stars are dotted.
Outside the house, his grandfather Chen Zangfeng was personally protecting him. The place where Chen Shen was was definitely the safest place.
The young man calmly took out the "Soul Refining Pill" he had obtained from the Alchemy Hall finals, swallowed it, and then used the profound energy in his body to absorb the medicinal power.
After a hundred breaths, he could clearly feel that his soul power was slowly increasing.
"Huchi...chichi..."
Another hundred breaths passed, and the young man's closed eyes suddenly widened, and at the same time——
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for increasing his soul power by five percent."
Chen Shen breathed a long sigh of relief. With this 5% soul power, he was much more confident in refining the mysterious talisman.
As for the 500,000 experience points gained from completing system tasks, Chen Shen does not plan to start it now.
Although grandpa Chen Zangfeng is guarding the house outside, which can guarantee absolute safety, the movement of Xuanshi's breakthrough is not small, and it will inevitably attract people's attention, especially the attention of the great elder Chen Jinyang, which is not a good thing.
Next, proceed to the second step: "System Spirit, I want to open the mount space."
"Ding! To open the mount space, you need to pay one million gold coins. Do you want to confirm?"
Chen Shen had already been mentally prepared for this and nodded immediately: "Confirm!"
"Ding! The mount space is successfully opened. When the host's mount is in the mount space, its age growth rate is doubled, but its final life span will not be affected. When it is used, the mount can be removed with just a mental thought.
Call out."
The mount's growth rate is doubled, which is exactly what Chen Shen wants.
You must know that the life span of mysterious beasts is generally much longer than that of human cultivators, almost three to five times that of humans at the same level. Moreover, their bodies mature early and will not change much after their adolescence.
Of course, this is only for most mysterious beasts. Some special types of mysterious beasts, such as Chen Shen's battle pet Xiaobai, are exceptions.
A long lifespan is a unique advantage of mysterious beasts. But at the same time, they also have their own shortcomings: that is, they cannot achieve leap-forward realm improvement through the cultivation of exercises and mysterious skills like human cultivators.
According to the level of bloodline of mysterious beasts, their final "life" height is determined almost as soon as they are born, and as they enter adulthood, their strength will reach its peak.
In addition to the normal accumulation of years, there is a simpler way to accelerate the maturity of mysterious beasts, which is to swallow the mysterious crystals of other mysterious beasts, or to eat human cultivators, and by the way, swallow the crystals in their Dantian.
Xuanqi.
Gaining an improvement in cultivation by swallowing Xuan Crystals and Xuan Qi will not affect the ultimate life span of the Xuan Beasts. Therefore, this is a very interesting and magical phenomenon.
Now, the mount space provided by the system actually has a similar effect, and it will not cause Chen Shen's beloved horse to "short life". This is definitely good news for Chen Shen.
"Creak..."
Chen Shen pushed open the door, and Chen Zangfeng, who was guarding outside, said with a smile on his face: "You brat, isn't it just cultivation? And you did it in a secretive way so that I won't let grandpa see it. How about it? Are you done with it?"
The young man smiled angrily: "Everything is OK!"
"Oh what? You little brat, you have some strange words coming out of your mouth."
The old man rolled his eyes at Chen Shen, then pointed to the side and said: "I brought Red Rabbit here, and I also sent all the people around me out of the other courtyard. You said you wanted to show me a miracle, but don't
Disappoint grandpa?"
"That's necessary, please do me a favor!"
After that, the young man trotted all the way to the red rabbit, then waved his sleeves, and after a flash of heroic light, the majestic and strong one-horned red-maned beast was taken into the mount space by him.
Mr. Chen opened his mouth wide with an incredible look on his face!
Although the Space Mysterious Ring can store any object, animals with their own soul consciousness, including humans, cannot enter the Space Mysterious Ring.
Fortunately, there is no magic in this world, otherwise, this ancient man would probably think that his grandson is a hidden magician!
The old man stared in surprise and asked: "What, what's going on? Where is your red rabbit?"
"Hahahaha, don't worry, grandpa, it's here fine and fine!" Chen Shen patted his belly.
"How can such a big living thing be stuffed directly into the belly? You kid... this must have something to do with the Panlong Blood Jade, right?" Chen Zangfeng said smartly.
"Uh... almost! Now, almost all the wealthy families in the city know that I have won the one-horned red-maned beast. It would be too ostentatious to ride it out in the imperial capital, so it is better to keep a low profile." Chen Shen finished and said to himself
Putting on a black robe that was enough to hide his appearance, he waved to the old man not far away to say goodbye.
Then, the young man walked into a secret passage known only to successive heads of the Chen family, and left the General's Mansion without anyone noticing.
Since then, Chen Shen has been on his way home.
He wants to return to Kowloon City, bring Shun Lao and Ling'er back to him, and bring them back to the General's Mansion in the imperial capital, so that they can bloom again in this place that was once humiliated by Chen Shen, and bloom into something unmatched by anyone.
The glory!
…
At the same time, in Courtyard A in the west area of the General's Mansion, in the residence of the great elder, three people, father and son, were whispering to each other——
"It's strange, it's so strange! Not only is Chen Shen alive and well, but his cultivation has also improved greatly, and his alchemy skills are outstanding! There must be a big secret in this!" Chen Xiong, the eldest son of the great elder, looked solemn.
"Are you sure you saw that little beast Chen Shen being poisoned to death?" Chen Jinyang asked with a frown.
"Sure, a hundred sure!"
The youngest son Chen Hu nodded repeatedly: "In order to clear our suspicions, Chen Shen was given *. Afterwards, we did not go far, but stayed around the stall opposite. Three hours later, we saw with our own eyes
Miao Ling and Mr. Shun carried Chen Shen around to find a doctor."
"Yes, at that time we even asked a close associate to pretend to be a doctor and check Chen Shen's pulse to make sure that he had no life left!" Chen Xiong also said.
"Hmph! Then... maybe the problem lies with the two servants, Miao Ling and Shun Lao... Maybe, these two people are not as simple as they seem." Chen Jinyang said thoughtfully.
"No way! How can an old lame man and a wasted maid be a hidden master?" Chen Xiong had a look of disdain on his face.
"Crack!"
A crisp and loud slap sounded, and it was his father who slapped him!
Chen Jinyang said angrily: "Idiot! How many times have I taught you? Don't underestimate any enemy! If you had dealt with Shun Lao and Miao Ling at that time, how could you have caused so much trouble?"
"I'm sorry, father, we were careless... But, everything happens for a reason!"
"We intentionally kept those two alive so that we could provide alibi for our two brothers. It proves that Chen Shen suddenly died of a strange illness long after we left." Chenxiong explained in a low voice, covering his face.
…
Chen Jinyang waved his hands impatiently: "That's all, let's leave this matter as it is. In the short term, none of you are going to provoke Chen Shen."
"Also, everyone who knows about your poisoning of Chen Shen will be killed, including your cronies!"
"This must be done cleanly without leaving any tail, remember?"
The two young men respectfully accepted the order: "Yes! I understand, kid."
