Chapter 1288: Succession Ceremony

Chapter 1296: Succession Ceremony

Qing Cong’s eyes lit up when he heard Qing Gu’s words,

“Haha! I already planned to pass the position of the family master to the one who found the Illusion Power Seed, then I will retreat until I die or advance to the Mystic Comprehending State. My lifespan is running out, and the Heavenly Illusive Technique consumes a lot of life essence, but with this water, I can give it a go.”

Hearing this, Qing Gu’s eyes flickered a few times, then he turned sideway and cupped his fist at Liu Ming,

“Qing Gu congratulates Elder Liu in advance.”

“That’s right, I was so happy that I forgot about it. Liu Ming, since you have solved the short lifespan problem of our Qing Family, even if you didn’t get the Illusion Power Seed in the secret realm, the family master will be you. After all, with the help of this water, our Qing Family will never have to worry about our future.”

Liu Ming didn’t show any surprise. He also answered flatly,

“Thank you, family master. I will do my best. It’s just that I’m not good at managing family affairs, so I still have to rely on Elder Qing Gu by then.”

As he spoke, he made a gesture, and the Three Illumination Water that surrounded Qing Gu was retracted into the white scroll, then he kept away the white scroll.

“Elder Liu’s life-saving grace in the secret realm, Qing Gu can’t repay it in my life. As long as family master entrusts me in the future, I will definitely do his best.” Qing Gu was overjoyed when he heard the words.

“Liu Ming, after half a month, it will be an auspicious day. We can take this opportunity to hold a grand ceremony for you, what do you think?” Qing Cong said with a smile.

“It’s not a problem, but I don’t like it to be too flashy. This matter can only be done within the Qing Family.” Liu Ming thought for a while and said so.

Qing Cong nodded. He looked back at the dull hexagonal array, then at the glowing white scroll in Liu Ming’s hand. He sighed softly and said,

“I didn’t expect the secret mentioned by Ancestor Mo Tian back then is this immortal magic weapon. Now that the troubles that have troubled our Qing Family for tens of thousands of years have been resolved, this secret realm has also completed its mission. Liu Ming, after you become the family master, this place will be my retreat. No one is allowed to step in.”

Liu Ming and Qing Gu naturally nodded in agreement when they heard this.

In the following time, after the 3 of them discussed again, Liu Ming and Qing Gu left.

…

After Liu Ming left the hall, instead of going back to the cave house, he went to the Thousand Book Pavilion where Qing Family stored various books.

He stayed in Thousand Book Pavilion for several hours before leaving, then he went straight back to the cave house.

After Liu Ming closed the door of the cave house and activated all the enchantments in the cave house, he heaved a sigh of relief, went back to the secret room, and sat cross-legged.

Although the trip to the secret realm lasted only 2 days, he experienced a lot of crisis during the trip, including the 2 beastkins he encountered at the end, they were the 2 most powerful Celestial State cultivators that he had seen in these years besides the Mystic Comprehending State powerhouses.

If it wasn’t for the assistance of Mo Tian and the enchantments, he wouldn’t be able to kill them so easily.

After finally getting Three Illumination Luo River Painting, he even almost died in the collapsed secret realm.

Liu Ming sat quietly for a while, then he waved and took out 2 items. A fist-sized gray beastkin pellet and a big black gourd.

This gray beastkin pellet was the real pellet of the woman in a gray robe. The beastkin pellet of the Celestial State later stage was quite useful to Liu Ming now.

It was a pity that the hooked nose man at the Celestial State peak stage was burned to ashes directly by the Illusive Demonic Heart Flame; his real pellet was also burned together.

As for the black gourd, it contained some Three Illumination Water.

This water was somewhat similar to the hell river heavy water he refined before, but it exuded a rich demonic qi.

“Three Illumination Water is similar to hell river heavy water. It is also the essence of water. It has the effect of purifying the spiritual power and soul, so it can prolong the lifespan of the Qing Family’s cultivator. However, this water also contains a lot of yin qi that is also harmful to the demon body. Ordinary demons can only use this thing to purify the spiritual power and body, but there are no such concerns for you. The Hell Bone Secret you cultivate is originally based on pure yin qi. Using Three Illumination Water to purify your spiritual power will be very beneficial for you to advance to the Celestial State intermediate stage.” Mo Tian’s voice came from Liu Ming’s body.

Liu Ming nodded when he heard the words. He felt something different in the Three Illumination Water when he came into contact with it for the first time. After reading some books in the Thousand Book Pavilion, he also confirmed the authenticity of Mo Tian’s words.

After making up his mind, he kept away the gray beastkin pellet and channeled Hell Bone Secret. His body gradually emitted a thick black air from his body.

A moment later, he unplugged the black gourd and drew out a strand of silver liquid that entangled with black air from it.

Liu Ming chanted and launched symbols.

The silver liquid spread and turned into a silver mist, which slowly submerged into Liu Ming’s body.

Liu Ming’s body flickered with a black light for a while, emitting a purer black light.

He showed a joyful face. The black light became bigger and bigger, shrouding his body entirely.

Half a month passed quickly, and a faint purple escape light landed outside of Liu Ming’s cave house. A figure of the young man in a white robe appeared.

The young man in a white robe glanced at Liu Ming’s cave house, tidied his clothes, and sent a communication talisman into the cave house.

After a while, Liu Ming walked out slowly from the cave house.

There was a faint layer of white light on his face. His aura was more refined than before.

But the young man in a white robe was just at the Real Pellet State early stage, so naturally he couldn’t sense this.

“Greetings, Elder Liu. Family master asked me to pass on the message that the succession ceremony is ready. We are all waiting for Elder Liu.” The young man in a white robe bowed Liu Ming respectfully and said.

Liu Ming nodded, then they flew toward the family master hall.

At the same time, flags fluttered in every corner of the Qing Family. Gorgeous colorful clouds floated in the sky. There was a lot of hustle and bustle. It seemed extremely lively.

The buildings of the Qing Family also looked colorful under the effect of enchantment. The spirit trees and flowers everywhere were also blooming at the same time.

The most eye-catching was the high platform gleaming with white light in midair of Qing Family Manor.

The Qing Family Manor was full of people. The hall masters and deputies who were away from home also came back one after another from nearby places.

Liu Ming scanned with Divine Thought. The number of Qing Family’s cultivators gathered in the manor today was already as many as several thousand.

However, the Qing Family did not invite people from other families to watch the ceremony. It was partly because of Liu Ming’s intention and also partly due to Qing Cong’s imminent retreat, so naturally they didn’t want to make too much publicity, lest they incurred unnecessary trouble.

They quickly arrived at the main hall. Qing Cong and Qing Gu were giving various orders. When they saw Liu Ming coming in, they greeted him.

“Eh, it has just been half a month, and Elder Liu’s cultivation seems to have improved a lot. It’s really gratifying.” Qing Cong looked Liu Ming up and down and said with bright eyes.

“Family master has overpraised. It’s just that I have just experienced the life and death danger, so I have realized a lot by chance. My spiritual power has not increased much.” Liu Ming said modestly.

“Elder Liu, no need to be so humble. Soon, you will be able to advance to the intermediate stage.” Qing Gu said with admiration.

“By the way, when I was coming here, I saw the preparations for this grand ceremony. Does it really need to be that grand?” Liu Ming said with a wry smile.

“Hehe. The appointment of the family master this time is different from before. Elder Liu is not cultivating the Heavenly Illusion Technique, so you have a long lifespan. You also brought out Three Illumination Water from the secret realm to make the family’s lifespan longer. How can we not celebrate this joyful event.” Qing Cong said with a chuckle.

“That’s the case, so Elder Liu can’t refuse.” Qing Gu also laughed on the side.

Seeing this, Liu Ming smiled helplessly and said nothing more.

Qing Cong let Liu Ming sit down on the main seat, and he himself sat a little away from Liu Ming. He began to introduce the Real Pellet State cultivators to Liu Ming one by one.

Although Liu Ming had been the elder of the Qing Family for decades, he had always lived in seclusion. It could be said that most of the Qing Family cultivators who were staying outside had never seen him. They couldn’t help but look at him curiously when they were introduced.

By noon, all the preparations for the family master succession ceremony were almost done.

“Elder Liu, let’s go to the high platform first and start the succession ceremony immediately.” Qing Cong stood up, glanced at Liu Ming, and said.

“Okay!” Liu Ming nodded, stood up, and walked out of the main hall.

They turned into light streams and landed on the high platform.

Rows of elite demon guards in armor stand around the high platform with dignified expressions.

After Qing Cong stood still, he waved his hand, and immediately dozens of Qing Family’s cultivators holding green horns below the high platform blew the horns at the same time. The passionate sound of the horns spread in all directions.

3 big chairs were placed on the high platform, Qing Cong immediately asked Liu Ming to sit on the chair in the middle, and he and Qing Gu sat on both sides of Liu Ming.

The Real Pellet State cultivators of the Qing Family stood at the bottom of the high platform according to the level of their cultivation. Nearly 10,000 thousand eyes looked at Liu Ming.

When the horns stopped, Qing Cong took a few steps forward and announced loudly,

“The trip to the Heavenly Illusive Secret Realm ended half a month ago. Today, everyone is called here for the succession ceremony of the family master. First, we will start offering sacrifices to the ancestors of our Qing Family.”

As soon as Qing Cong finished speaking, a group of Qing Family’s cultivators in green robes carried all kinds of sacrificial spiritual weapons, various incense candles, and exotic fruits and arranged them in an orderly manner on the high platform. An incense burner table was set up after a while.

Rows of memorial tablets of the ancestors filled the table. A portrait of a masked man in a black robe hung on the top, which was the portrait of Mo Tian.
