Xuan Chen looked at Ming Jiao and felt that this senior brother was not as simple as he seemed.

Although his ability to do things is average, his thigh holding is very accurate.

"Brother, I haven't been at the headquarters for many years, so I don't know much about the specific situation of each branch. Which branch should we go to first?"

Mingjiao didn't even think about it: "Go to Cangshan Island first."

Xuan Chen was a little confused: "I remember that the core territory of the Ming family, apart from the branches on several large islands south of Tianquan Island, is Ruyi Island in the south of the East China Sea.

It has always been the most important stronghold of the Ming family in the eastern sea, and is in charge of more than ten secondary branches in the surrounding areas, while Cangshan Island has only one secondary branch.

In terms of island size, there are five or six Ruyi Islands compared to Cangshan Islands.

Why not go to Ruyi Island instead of Cangshan Island?"

Ming Jiao smiled and said, "That's the news you heard hundreds of years ago. In order to increase the strength of the Ming family, my father has been expanding northward.

Now Cangshan Island has become a first-level branch, managing more than a dozen surrounding second-level branches.

Moreover, several fifth-level mineral veins have been discovered near Cangshan Island."

Xuan Chen nodded: "That's good, Cangshan Island is very far away from the seven big islands.

In addition, Cangshan Island is not big, so all forces do not pay much attention to it.

If there is a vein of minerals, it would be a good place to start a business."

"Not only that, the current leader of the Cangshan Island branch is my uncle Ming Lin.

The other tribesmen in the branch are also direct descendants of the Ming family.

This was also a back-up left by his father. When he was preparing to deal with the elders, he transferred most of the direct family members out of the headquarters.

More than 90% of the direct descendants of the Ming family who left the headquarters were placed near Cangshan Island.

Over the years, the Ming family has invested a lot of resources here just to prepare for the current situation."

The flying boat first headed east, then turned south.

After flying for seven or eight days, a large island appeared in the southeast.

The island is not large, less than two thousand miles long from east to west and over a thousand miles wide from north to south.

The island is full of mountains, large and small, and only in the northwest of the island is a plain with a radius of less than a hundred miles.

Ming Jiao breathed a sigh of relief: "We finally arrived at Cangshan Island."

After that, he took out Lord Minglong's token and sent a message to Minglin.

Not long after the meeting, a flying boat flew out from Cangshan Island.

After a while, they met Ming Jiao's flying boat.

Two monks, one old and one young, appeared on the bow of the boat, both wearing white robes and white hats on their heads.

It can be seen that this is wearing a filial piety.

Ming Jiao quickly stood up and saluted: "Second uncle."

The old monk quickly asked: "Mingjiao, brother, is he really this?"

Ming Jiao nodded: "Second uncle, my father was besieged by the rebellious group and died of exhaustion."

Tears welled up in the eyes of the old monk. He wiped his tears and said, "Go inside and talk."

Two flying boats landed in the northwest of Cangshan Island. Ming Jiao, Xuan Chen, and a disciple of the Ming family who had been controlling the flying boats followed Ming Lin around the mountain several times.

Finally, we entered an underground space.

The underground space here is very spacious, with spiritual fields, springs, pavilions, and a huge underground fire chamber.

There are mines near Cangshan Island, so this should be a smelting place.

Everyone didn't care about these things and went straight to a stone house.

After entering the house, Xuan Lin opened all the formations.

Then he asked: "Mingjiao, tell me everything about my eldest brother's accident and the situation up to now."

Ming Jiao nodded, and told everything from his father's explanation of the funeral, the process of escaping, and the matter of going to Xingming Island to hug his thigh.

After hearing this, Ming Lin nodded: "Eldest brother had already prepared to deal with the elders more than a thousand years ago.

He was worried that he could not defeat them, so he asked me to bring most of the direct descendants of the Ming family to Cangshan Island in advance to take root.

He made a lot of preparations, but he still failed."

The young man who accompanied Ming Lin to greet Ming Jiao asked: "Brother, before he died, my uncle asked you to ask Wang Daoyuan for help. Is Wang Daoyuan reliable?

That treasure is our Ming family’s hope in cultivating god-transformation monks.

If he accepts the ancestral treasures of our Ming family and doesn't help, we will have no hope at all."

Ming Jiao glanced at the young man and nodded firmly: "Senior Wang has extraordinary strength and is extremely generous in his actions.

If we don't rely on him, can our Ming family find other backers?

Without a backer, our Ming family cannot defeat those elders with our own strength.

The headquarters is now in their hands. If we cannot take advantage, after a while, they will be able to control most of the branches of the Dark Dragon Organization.

Although our Minglong organization is not strong, in terms of intelligence, no one in the entire Seven Stars Sea Immortal World can surely defeat us.

The intelligence organization is in the hands of the rebel elders, where can we hide?

When the time comes and we are forced to have no way to escape, why don't we sacrifice our treasures and find a backer to save our lives?

When you have a chance to make a comeback, you won’t be willing to take the plunge, but when you have no other way out, it will be too late.”

After being scolded by him, the young man looked a little confused: "Even if you want to find a backer, isn't it good to join the Seven Star Alliance?

No matter how strong Wang Daoyuan is, can he be as strong as the Seven Star Alliance?"

Seeing that the two people were having an angry argument, Xuan Chen quickly smoothed things over: "Who is this junior brother?"

Ming Lin continued: "This is my youngest son Ming Shan, the most talented among my many sons.

Now in his early five hundred years, he is already in the middle stage of Yuanying, and is not far from the late stage of Yuanying."

When he spoke, there was a sense of pride in his eyes.

There is no doubt that this is the descendant he values ​​the most.

Generally speaking, monks who can break through the Nascent Soul are certainly not too bad in talent.

At least he is a monk with three spiritual roots whose main spiritual root exceeds seven inches.

With such a talent, it would be considered good if he could break through to the Nascent Soul at the age of seven or eight hundred.

A monk with a second spiritual root whose main spiritual root exceeds eight inches can probably break through to the Nascent Soul realm at the age of more than five hundred years.

If those who broke through the Nascent Soul before the age of five hundred did not encounter any adventures, they would at least be very close to the Heavenly Spiritual Root.

Most of those who can break through the Nascent Soul realm before the age of four hundred have Tianling roots.

Ming Shan is more than five hundred years old, his cultivation level is close to the late stage of Nascent Soul, and he should also have heavenly spiritual roots.

This cultivation speed is only achieved in the Immortal Cultivation World of Seven Star Sea.

The sooner or later the breakthrough will occur, it is also related to the technique and resources.

The more advanced the technique is, the faster the cultivation speed will be.

If the level of inheritance on the Seven Star Sea side can catch up with Beiyuan side, the monks' cultivation speed will also reach a big level.

Xuan Chen smiled and said: "Junior Brother Mingshan is indeed extremely talented, and he is almost catching up with me.

As far as I know, Wang Daoyuan should be less than five hundred years old now, and he is already in the middle stage of becoming a god."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was stunned.

Mingshan was the first to react: "How is that possible? The cultivation of the Nascent Soul realm is very slow.

Even if there is no shortage of resources, it will still take hundreds of years to cultivate from the early stage of Yuanying to the peak of Yuanying.

The cultivation speed of the realm of transformation is even slower. It is not easy to advance to the first level in two to three hundred years.

Senior Brother Xuanchen, I know that you are the most talented among my uncle’s disciples, and you are better than me.

But you should also know that there is no one in the world who can cultivate so quickly."

"When he was at the peak of his Nascent Soul, he once came to Xingming Pavilion on Lone Star Island to inquire about information from me.

At that time, he could not completely avoid my detection.

I could clearly sense his condition. He was definitely less than 500 years old at the time.

At that time, it was less than fifty years ago.

In the past fifty years, he has gone from the peak of Yuanying to the middle stage of becoming a god.

To tell you the truth, if those elders had not betrayed me, Senior Brother Mingjiao would have succeeded to the throne normally.

I will directly leave the Minglong Organization and become a guest of the Wang family."
