Chapter 154 Immortal Offspring
Chapter 154 Immortal Offspring
First there were the four-legged monsters, then the human figurines. The human experiments conducted by the Immortal Cangsong created batch after batch of monsters that had lost their self-awareness.
At the same time, he gradually discovered the problem, so he set up several tests in order to screen out the "perfect people" with firm minds.
But without special means, how could there be a perfect person in the world? In extreme reluctance, the Immortal Cangsong actually went crazy and experimented on his newborn offspring.
The higher the realm, the more difficult it is to obtain offspring, so this "experimental material" becomes particularly valuable.
Maybe it was because he was the descendant of an immortal or because he was lucky, but this time, he seemed to have succeeded.
He perfectly transformed his offspring into a being with self-awareness and infinite lifespan. No matter how serious the injury was, he could recover quickly.
The only problem was that his descendants seemed to have been abandoned by the heavens. They had no cultivation and were unable to practice. If outsiders knew about the long lifespan of a mortal, the outcome would be self-evident.
After years of failure, Cangsong Immortal had completely given up on immortality. Looking at his transformed offspring who were unable to cultivate, he couldn't help but feel grief.
However, there was more to the story than that. He gradually discovered that the offspring he had transformed began to become moody and often secretly left his side to go to mortal towns for fun.
At first, Immortal Cangsong didn't care. Out of guilt towards his son, he even gave his son a few protective magic weapons. However, every time his son came back, he would seriously remind him that what happened to him must not be mentioned to outsiders.
Until one day, he felt that the protective magic weapon he gave to his offspring was activated. In a hurry, he rushed towards his offspring's direction.
Then he saw a terrifying scene: a group of monks surrounded his offspring, and his offspring had blood all over his mouth and was chewing something.
"Rebellious son, what have you done!"
After killing those monks to silence them, the shocked and angry Cangsong Immortal slapped his offspring's head off with a slap.
"Hehe...hehe..."
A cold laugh emanated from the child's abdomen. Then, the flesh on his neck began to wriggle frantically, and the outline of a head gradually emerged.
"Old man, do you want to kill your son?"
The sound coming from the son's abdomen did not change, but the tone had changed. It was no longer the son's original respect for his father. The experiment had failed at some point.
"Ah, what a reversal of fate!"
The Immortal Cangsong sighed helplessly, and the laws in his hands surged, as if he wanted to destroy the monster in front of him.
"Father...Father, why are you here? What happened to me? Didn't I come here to play with Xiaohua? Eh? How did I become a cultivator?"
A familiar voice came from the belly of the headless boy, and the hands of the Immortal Cangsong fell down weakly.
"Let's go back with me."
In this way, the Immortal Cangsong brought his offspring back to the cave and confined them to his side.
When his life was almost over, he personally made a golden coffin and sealed his offspring in it.
"Father, I'm hungry. I want to go find Xiaohua."
"..."
The coffin closed and the sound faded away.
Before the death of Cangsong Immortal, out of guilt for his descendants, he finally loosened the seal of his coffin.
He set a rule at the entrance of the ruins that no one above the Golden Core stage could enter, because after he brought his offspring back last time, he discovered that his offspring, who was unable to practice cultivation, had actually reached the Nascent Soul stage.
As for how he did it, he could clearly see the residue at the corner of his son's mouth.
Using the immortal ruins as bait, they would take low-level cultivators to raise offspring. If the low-level cultivators who discovered the ruins died there, no one would suspect anything.
When his descendants become powerful, they can naturally leave the ruins and go to the outside world. By then, even if they lose his protection, they will definitely be able to live well.
……
"I went to the basement of an attic before and saw a cage with the door open. If I'm not mistaken, this is where you were imprisoned, right? How did you get out? And how did you know all these things while you were imprisoned?"
Lin Chuan looked at the woman in front of him with suspicion and asked.
"After Immortal Cangsong died, three women in the Jindan stage came to the ruins. I told them how to leave in exchange, and they released me."
"As for how I know these things? It told me."
As Ran spoke, she raised her hand slightly, and in an instant, a blade of grass appeared out of thin air in her palm. This was one of the elves' talents, the ability to communicate with plants.
"Did they go out?" Zhao Gang couldn't help but ask from the side.
"I worked with them and used a formation to trap the immortal's offspring. But just when we were about to succeed, the immortal's offspring tried to force one of them to be buried with them. That person got scared and left us."
"Then they became the blood food of the immortal descendants, and I paid a huge price to escape here." Ran explained slowly.
"Is it safe here?"
Baizhi looked up and around. Outside the hall was the golden coffin. This place looked like the enemy's lair.
"This is where the Immortal Cangsong once lived. His descendants seem to have a deep-seated fear of this place. Even though they knew I was inside, they didn't dare to come in."
"But that was in the past."
For thousands of years, he relied on those who entered the ruins, and his strength had long reached the peak of the Divine Transformation Realm. But for some reason, in the past thousand years, it seems that something unexpected happened outside, and no one has entered the ruins."
"Until a while ago, when a large group of people suddenly arrived, his strength also entered the Tribulation Crossing Stage. After entering the Tribulation Crossing Stage, he seemed to have grown bolder. He tried to enter here several times, but in the end he stopped."
Ran shook her head slowly, her expression full of solemnity, her eyes fixed on the outside of the hall.
"In other words, this place is about to become unsafe?" Lin Chuan frowned slightly, his expression so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip out.
"That's right, so if we want to get out, we must cooperate." Ran nodded solemnly with a firm tone.
"We need a guarantee."
"I can swear a heavenly oath."
So, Lin Chuan and the other two began to cooperate with Ran.
"The key to leaving the ruins is within the body of the immortal's offspring. We need to set up a formation and trap him when he appears, then extract the key."
"This process is extremely dangerous. Please forgive me for testing you earlier, because perhaps some of you will stay here forever."
Ran said this seriously, with a hint of worry in her eyes.
