From a carp to a dragon god

As the Fish Mother refined the earth's energy into the blessed land every day, Yushan and Nanhu grew larger day by day, and the roots of the mountains and the water veins also improved accordingly.

Zhu Sanniang stayed in the Eternal Blessed Land for many days and managed to subdue the six spider monsters. She took away half of the spider ladies and spirit spiders.

The pine and cypress forests on the six northern spider islands were burned down, but the Spider Web Mountain and Thousand Barrier Cliffs on the Nest Island were fine and could be used to offer spider silk on behalf of the six houses.

After this incident, the Six-room Spider Demon became completely obedient. Fairy Haixia had secret talks with Zhu Sanniang for a few days. In order to prevent the Six-room Spider Demon from having the desire to cling to her again, Fairy Haixia took Zhu Zihui to Taoliu Blessed Land.

Because the True Dao Seed was destroyed, Zhu Zihui completely forgot her memories in the Dragon Palace. Under Yu Shuyang's persuasion, she did not return to the Dragon Palace's weaving bureau.

Yu Shuyang also wanted to see what the Insect King and the Weaving Bureau would do next. Although the four centipede dragon generals were driven away, it did not mean that the matter was resolved.

There is another point, which Yu Shuyang has just realized. The five islands are now well-regulated: the three tribes of sea spiders, golden bees, and fireflies are already the places with the largest number of insects in the East China Sea.

He was not clear about the relationship between the Insect King and the insect race, but according to the description of the Fairy Haixia, it seemed to be related to the fortune of the bees and ants.

In this way, the Insect King will definitely not allow the insect race to develop. Just look at the Dragon-clothed Spider Lady from the Weaving Bureau, who has been bleeding the Zhu family. It seems that the Insect King must be behind this.

That day, Yu's father called Yu Shuyang and Li Zhen over. Ever since he met Zhu Sanniang, he had been thinking about it over and over again.

"Stupid brother, Da Zhenzi, you two come over and sit down."

Father Yu was writing large characters on the desk. Ever since he had overcome the calamity and became a fifth-rank demon fairy, his practice of magic had stopped, so he picked up the interest of practicing calligraphy again.

The art of book immortality includes three types: calligraphy, true characters, and writing. The technique that Yu's father practiced in the past was a niche method of true characters - the technique of bookworms becoming immortals by eating characters. Unfortunately, this technique only reached the fifth level.

After finishing writing a few large characters, Yu's father threw the brush into the brush washer and said, "I called you two here today mainly to ask you something.

Silly boy, you have eight sisters, and now the second, sixth, and eighth sisters are staying with us. Don’t you feel sad? "

Yu Shuyang was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect Yu's father to say this. He hurriedly explained, "Father, what are you talking about? But what did I do wrong?"

He has the best relationship with his eighth sister, and is also on good terms with his sixth sister and her husband. Even his second sister, whom he has not seen since childhood, is a blood relative, and he has always taken great care of the second nephew of the Bai family.

Father Yu smiled and nodded, then turned to look at Li Zhen and said, "Da Zhenzi, you have two brothers. Do you feel bad for them?"

Under Yu's father's gaze, Li Zhen suddenly understood something. He had also heard about Li Li and Zhu Zisi quarreling with Zhu Sanniang, but he pretended not to know in front of Zhu Sanniang.

Now being questioned in person, Li Zhen felt ashamed and guilty for a moment, as if his face had been peeled off and the darkest part of his heart was exposed.

"Second uncle..."

Li Zhen was choked with sobs and couldn't speak.

Yu's father raised his hand and waved, signaling Li Zhen to listen to him.

"Da Zhenzi, I know you've been holding a grudge since you were little. If you ask me, Li Bo'er is also a bastard! He abandoned his wife and children!

However, Da Zhenzi, you have to know that no matter how bad Li Boler was, he did not reveal the longevity seed after all. You know that the longevity seed insect monster is the inducement of the longevity pill.

I don't need to explain this in detail, it's a very serious situation in your East China Sea!"

Father Yu paused for a moment, rinsed his brush in the brush washer, and hung it on the brush stand to drain. Then he continued, "As the saying goes, it takes three stakes to make a fence, and it takes three men to make a hero.

Before, when you three brothers split up the family business, I felt that you were at a disadvantage. Now that you have gained power over your wife's family, your second brother is quarreling with your third brother again.

Logically speaking, you three brothers have already separated, and Li Li has already taken advantage. If he continues to make trouble, he is just being greedy!
"Second uncle wants to ask you, what are your plans for the future? Are you planning to ignore Li Li and Li Lang, or do you have other plans?"

How could Li Zhen not understand Yu Fu's intention? To be honest, he had really planned to ignore it. He came to the desolate sea this time with the intention of taking refuge for a while.

"Uncle, do you think I did something wrong?" Li Zhen asked with tears in his eyes.

Seeing this, Yu's father sighed and pointed at Yu Shuyang and said, "Every family has its own problems. In the early years, your cousin hated me for marrying eight sisters far away!
Later, he even complained about me signing him up for the fish selection competition. For this reason, he even sneaked out once, as if he was going to survive the nine tribulations.

There is no parent who doesn't love his or her children, it's just that the depth of their plans varies. When I married off my eight daughters, I felt heartbroken.

The problem is that Xiyu Fudi has a powerful enemy, and if you stay in the family, you can only endure the hardship. Not to mention the distant ones, just look at the two recent times when you have survived the tribulation, there were snake species that attacked you secretly!

Alas! Dazhenzi, although your family has no mortal enemies, some things are already destined.

Among you three brothers, the third brother, Li Lang, was brought into Longsun Water Palace since he was young. He is not that close to you, and there is a reason for that.

The second son, Li Li, is of the Mao Zhu bloodline and has inherited your mother's legacy. This shouldn't be too much, right?
At the beginning, your mother also considered finding you a wife from the Zhu family. That way, you and Li Li would share the Thousand Barrier Cliffs and the No Return Cave. Wouldn't your relationship with Li Li be better now?"

Yu's father had frequent contact with Zhu Sanniang, and he helped to advise on many matters, such as Li Zhen's birthday seeds, Wuzhou's trade routes, including Li Zhen's marriage with the Mu family, and Li Li's marriage with Zhu Zisi.

The only thing that made him dissatisfied was the division of the family property among the three brothers Li Zhen. It was not fair to treat everyone equally. Moreover, the division was too hasty. If it could have been discussed in advance, it would not be like this now.

"Da Zhenzi, your mother originally sought a trade route to Wuzhou for you out of consideration for you. The calculation behind this was to provide you with the resources to cultivate the Way of the God of Wealth.

The reason why you are not allowed to choose a wife from the Zhu family and instead marry into the Mu family is to preserve Wuzhou’s trade routes. You should understand this.

In this case, the marriage between Li Li and Zhu Zisi is an inevitable choice, and the final result will inevitably be that Li Li will inherit your mother's mantle.

All these things were planned for you two brothers, so how come in the end, it's your mother's fault?

Without your marriage with the Mu family, would you be able to join the Three Immortals Island later?
What deep hatred do you have with the Li Li brothers? It's nothing more than Li Li's wife getting in the way. Can't you two just resolve it?
Why do you have to stir up trouble with your brother in front of your mother? What's the logic behind this? Tell me honestly, are you angry with your brother or with your mother?

Father Yu made things clear. He had weighed the matter over and over again these days and felt that he had to make it clear to avoid Li Zhen's resentment.

Right now, it seems like Li Li is being instigated by his wife, jealous of Li Zhen's ascendancy to the Mu family. But what about the future? Perhaps Li Zhen will complain about the unfair division of the family property, and the two brothers will become enemies, ultimately blaming Zhu Sanniang.

Therefore, Yu's father called Li Zhen and Yu Shuyang over today, firstly to talk about Li Zhen's family affairs, and secondly, to let Yu Shuyang observe and see if he had any complaints in his heart.

After all, Yu Zilan, Yu Tienan, and Yu Bajie all came to live with him, and they all came back with their children and husbands. Li Zhen's face flushed red with embarrassment when his secrets were exposed. To be honest, he didn't care about the superficial wealth. He was just angry at Li Li for being so soft-hearted and listening to Zhu Zisi's instigation.

"Second uncle, I was wrong. I shouldn't have been angry with Li Li and made mother suffer!" Li Zhen said in a hoarse voice. After being scolded, his throat was burning with anger and he could hardly speak.

Yu Shuyang was listening from the side and knew that Yu's father wanted to make peace, but he couldn't just watch Li Zhen suffer. If he followed Yu's father's advice and made peace, would Li Zhen still have to help Li Li?

"Father, Da Zhenzi certainly did something wrong, but aren't Li Li and his wife even more problematic?

Having said that, it was Li Li and his wife who had been causing trouble all along. Just because Li Zhen has become successful, it doesn't mean he should accept them or even compensate them."

Yu Shuyang said this while facing Yu Fu's angry eyes.

Yu's father and Li Zhen were speechless for a moment. After a long while, Li Zhen said, "Cousin, don't worry too much about this matter. Someone will always suffer the loss."

Seeing this, Yu Shuyang didn't say anything more. He didn't mean to instigate discord between Li Zhen and Li Li. As the saying goes: You can give, but you can't rob, and you certainly can't cheat.

Father Yu then smiled with satisfaction and turned to Yu Shuyang and said, "How can we be so divided as to be a family? When we are able, we should help our brothers. It will benefit everyone.

Back then, didn't you help your eighth brother-in-law? I heard you even gave him a treasure. A few days ago, weren't you also teaching Shu Qing martial arts techniques? Aren't these all ways of helping him?"

Yu Shuyang was speechless after hearing what he said. He also knew that Yu's father was trying to make peace because he didn't want the two brothers Li Zhen and Li Li to become enemies, so as to avoid making Zhu Sanniang sad in the future.

"Father is right. I was too narrow-minded. Why don't you write to Li Li and his wife and ask them to come over.

"You should also talk to them, so they don't think that just making a fuss will get them anything, and become more and more greedy!" Yu Shuyang suggested.

Father Yu nodded and said, "Do you even need to tell me about this? I've already sent a letter to Li Li and Li Lang. Don't worry about it!"

After saying this, Yu's father glared at Yu Shuyang fiercely. He was trying to persuade Li Zhen, but this kid kept sabotaging him!
Seeing Yu's father glaring at him repeatedly, Yu Shuyang knew he couldn't provoke him anymore, so he quickly changed the subject and said, "Father, you see, we've finished talking about this matter, and I also have something to discuss with you.

Both you and your mother have successfully overcome the tribulation, and your mother has even comprehended the secret of immortal food. If you continue to develop in this way, there should be no problem in cultivating to the third level in the future.

What are your plans for the future? The Bookworm Immortal Eating Technique has only reached the fifth level. You can't wait until your life span ends, right?

In recent days, Yu Shuyang has been repeatedly persuading Yu's mother to accept disciples and pass on the Dharma. At the same time, he was also considering Yu's father, so he took the opportunity to ask him today.

Father Yu was quite dazed when he heard this. He really didn't expect that Yu Shuyang would ask such a question. Then he sighed deeply.

“There are tens of thousands of cultivators in this world, and it is already rare for someone to break through to the fifth rank. Otherwise, how could a fifth-rank demon immortal establish an aristocratic family?

The first grade can escape the calamity and ascend to heaven, and the second and third grades are considered the top three grades. It can be seen how powerful they are. If you really count, how many of them can escape the calamity and ascend to heaven?

Don't worry about me. I'm already very satisfied to have broken through to the fifth level. Three thousand years of life is already two killing calamities!"

Yu's father patted Yu Shuyang on the shoulder and consoled him.

Yu Shuyang was speechless for a moment and said quickly, "You can't say that. The Bookworm Eating Immortal Technique has stopped at the fifth level, but it doesn't mean there is no chance for further improvement.

The Bookworm Eats Immortals and turns into Mai Wang. This Mai Wang can refine the spirit of the middle star and obtain the Huandan. There is still a chance! "

The Maiwang Dan Dan was discovered by Yu Shuyang, Li Taiping and Yin Chenzi. This method is similar to the Shouzhong Chongyao method, both of which are medicinal ingredients for alchemy.

However, the longevity elixir refined by the Shouzhong insect monster is the first-grade elixir refined by the Maiwang book worm.

Father Yu was puzzled by what he said, but he was quite surprised at this moment and asked hurriedly, "What's going on with this Zhongxing Shen Refining?"

Seeing that Yu's father was in high spirits, Yu Shuyang was also happy. Cultivation also requires one's spirit. After the wandering cultivators and wild monsters break through and become immortals, few can break through and improve again. The fundamental reason is that their spirit is scattered.

“The Central Star is the Emperor Star, and refining the spirit is the method of gathering the Emperor’s luck, which is also the Six Lice of the Silver Fish and the Five Plum Worms of the Stupid Plum.

The six lice of clothes fish are: year, food, beauty, good, behavior, and ambition. The five pests of stupid plum are: learning, discrimination, martial arts, mediocrity, and work.

The six lice are the blood of the Emperor's destiny, and the five pests are the fat of the Emperor's destiny. If the veins can absorb the blood and fat of the Emperor's destiny as nourishment, then naturally one can refine the first-grade elixir."

Yu Shuyang explained slowly.

This method was a cultivation technique he deduced by reversing the alchemy method.

Yu Fu practices the art of bookworms eating immortals, which is essentially feeding three immortal characters to the bookworm's Dharma image, and the promotion of the Dharma image will lead to a breakthrough in the demon body.

According to the three levels of cultivation techniques, Tao, Fa and Shu, if one wants to change the method of cultivation, one can only downgrade and change the method. Yu Fu is already practicing the first level of Shu and cannot change it.

Therefore, what can be done is to prolong the magic, just as Yu Shuyang said, and continue to feed the bookworm Dharma image with real characters, namely the six lice on fish clothes and the five borers on stupid plums.

Father Yu was completely bewildered as he listened. For a moment, he seemed to not understand the Bookworm Eating Immortal Technique. He asked, "What about the six lice and five beetles you mentioned? How do you deal with this?"

Yu Shuyang could see that Father Yu was moved, and explained to him: "Fifth-grade cultivation is the unity of body and soul. According to normal cultivation, the subsequent process is to refine the false into the true.

The Golden Elixir Dao emphasizes refining the third-grade Void Pill and the first-grade Golden Pill, which correspond exactly to the Six Lice and Five Vermin. This is similar to the earlier practice of eating immortals. Collecting the corresponding Dharma rhymes and feeding them to the Bookworm Dharma Image will stimulate cultivation."

Yu Shuyang did not expect Yu's father to cultivate to the first level of calamity, but just wanted to find something for him to do so that he would not have to ask Zhu Sanniang to arrange a blind date for him like he did some time ago.

To be honest, in Yu Shuyang's opinion, instead of expecting Yu's father to cultivate to the first level of tribulation, it would be better for him to work hard and then take the whole family to escape the tribulation and ascend to heaven together!

After all, he carries the Taoist lineage, and as long as he practices seriously, he will be able to reach the first level of calamity sooner or later.

Yu's father still didn't quite understand, but his fighting spirit was rekindled. When Yu's mother was going through the tribulation a few days ago, he did feel uncomfortable.

The three sons-in-law were restricted by the divine oath and could not take action. As a member of the Xiyu clan, Yu's father could help, but he had not cultivated the art of killing.
