Chapter 2040: Mystery man

"I was wrong, please let me go!"
"I don't want to die!"
"Please, don't kill me!"
Yuan Ying was held by Zhang Yifeng, and Shen Long's eyes suddenly became frightened.
Faced with Shen Long's begging for mercy, Zhang Yifeng did not soften his hand, but released a ray of flame, burning the opponent's Yuan Ying to ashes in Shen Long's horrified expression.
Shen Long never thought that he would die in this way one day.
He also couldn't figure out why Zhang Yifeng rejected his proposal and killed him for Shen Yan.
After killing Shen Long, Zhang Yifeng looked at Shen Qing blankly and asked, "Where is the former Patriarch of the Shen family?"
The Grand Elder glanced at Zhang Yifeng with a complicated expression, and said, "Dead."
In principle, Zhang Yifeng just killed their Shen family, he should regard Zhang Yifeng as his enemy, but Shen Long's performance just now made him too disappointed.
In his opinion, it is better to let Zhang Yifeng kill him instead of letting Shen Long live to harm the Shen family.
Moreover, after comparing with Shen Long, he found that it would be a good choice to let Shen Yan be the master of the house.
"How did he die?" Zhang Yifeng frowned and asked.
In Lingyue Continent, the cultivator is going against the sky, but as the cultivation level increases, the cultivator can obtain an extremely long life.
There are generally only two situations when monks die. Either the monks are stuck in one realm for a long time, and they cannot break through the next realm until their lifespan is exhausted. When their lifespan is exhausted, they can only turn into a touch of loess and return to nature.
Another situation is the most common situation on the Lingyue Continent, and it is happening every day, that is, being killed.
As the saying goes, there are rivers and lakes where there are people. In Lingyue Continent, this situation is even more cruel.
When Zhang Yifeng finished asking, the great elder was surprisingly silent.
After a long time, he took a deep breath and said with a complex expression: "Two years ago, the Patriarch received a mysterious exercise. Since then, he has regarded that mysterious exercise as a god, day and night. Keep practicing."
Mysterious exercises?
Zhang Yifeng frowned and asked: "His death is related to that mysterious exercise?"
The elder nodded and continued: "That exercise is very evil and needs to be led by your own blood. Everyone persuaded the Patriarch not to practice, but the Patriarch not only refused to listen, but even more abolished the practice of forgetting to sleep and eat. ."
"However, the essence and blood is the root of the monk. After the loss, it is not easy to replenish it. Since practicing that exercise, the Patriarch's cultivation base has increased by leaps and bounds, but he has also paid his due for this. Price."
Having said this, the elder smiled bitterly and continued: "The Patriarch's body is going bad day by day. By the time he wakes up, it is already too late. His life has come to an end."
"At the time of his dying, he gave Shen Yan the jade pendant that symbolized the Patriarch's token. However, in the hearts of several of our elders, at that time we more recognized Shen Long as Patriarch, so..."
After that, Shen Qing didn't say anything further, but Zhang Yifeng already understood what he meant.
Without his own appearance, Shen Yan is likely to become a victim of the family power struggle, and Shen Long will become the new head of the Shen family.
"Shen Aotian's practice, how did he get it?" Zhang Yifeng asked suddenly.
The reason why he asked this was not because of curiosity, but from what the Great Elder said just now, he faintly felt that Shen Aotian's practice was very similar to a practice he knew.
The elder hesitated for a moment, and said: "That exercise was obtained by the Patriarch at Lingjing Mountain. Patriarch only told me about this secret, and no one else knew it."
Lingjing Mountain.
Zhang Yifeng squinted his eyes slightly, as he expected, the exercise practiced by Shen Aotian, the previous patriarch of the Shen family, was most likely the exercise method of the spiritual mirror Xianju Gongfa Pavilion where he was in his previous life. ".
In his previous life, when he was King Pill, he had studied that exercise. The reason why he studied that exercise at that time was because some of the disciples of Lingjing Xianju practiced that exercise, which caused the body to appear. Problem.
Moreover, the problem of that disciple was very similar to what the great elder said just now. The only difference was that the disciple of Lingjing Xianju was luckier than Shen Aotian. He met him and saved his life under his treatment.
At that time, Zhang Yifeng checked the disciple's body.
After the inspection, he found that the reason why the disciple's body had a problem was that his cultivation method was very evil, and he needed to refine his own essence and blood as a cultivation method, and the process was very cruel.
It's not an exaggeration even to use self-mutilation, but after the cultivation, the power is indeed amazing.
Moreover, the cultivation speed of that exercise is several times that of ordinary exercises, but that kind of cultivation method puts a heavy load on the body. If you don't pay attention, it is very likely to be life-threatening and even endanger your life.
When the disciple's body had problems that year, he was already dying and might die at any time. However, Zhang Yifeng still cured the disciple's hidden illness by relying on his super understanding of pill medicine, and told him not to remember in the future. Practicing that practice again, otherwise it is likely to endanger his life.
That disciple was also obedient. Since then, he has never practiced the Guo method again, and the evil method has been completely blocked by his master in the Gongfa Pavilion, never seeing the sun.
Zhang Yifeng did not expect that Shen Aotian would have obtained this technique.
However, the gongfa pavilion of Lingjing Xianju is heavily guarded, how did Shen Aotian get that gong method?
Could it be said that Lingjing Xianju really had a terrible change and was destroyed?
It’s just that Lingjing Xianju has so many masters, and the sect also studies pills and runes. Although its strength is not particularly strong in Zhongzhou, it is not a weak one. Who can put Lingjing Xiancheng into the whole? The schools are all destroyed?
Enduring his inner anxiety, Zhang Yifeng asked, "How could Lingjing Mountain fall into the hands of the Shen family?"
Shen Qing hesitated, and said with a wry smile: "The reason why Lingjing Mountain is controlled by our Shen family is actually not our intention, but a mysterious person's entrustment."
"The entrustment of a mysterious man?"
Zhang Yifeng frowned and said, "Who is the mysterious person you are talking about?"
Shen Qing shook her head, with a bitter smile on her face.
"I don't know, maybe only the old Patriarch knows about this, but after he has passed away, no one knows this secret anymore, but..."
Having said this, Shen Qing paused and continued: "One thing I can be sure of."
