Chapter 1834 Leisure Time in the Backyard!
"If we continue to forcibly expand the space within our bodies..."
There is a risk of a backlash.
Cheng Buzheng paused, his expression turning serious:
"You know how terrifying the backlash from spatial power can be."
Especially if it erupts internally, without the original body present, the backlash would be enough to kill you all on the spot!
"This point, though I have already made clear,"
Speaking of which.
Cheng Buzheng's gaze swept over the group of younger people, lingering for a moment longer on several of the younger children.
"However, some of the younger generation are still young and still have some youthful spirit. You should pay more attention to them and make sure they don't become greedy for credit or act rashly."
I've heard this!
Cheng Ping'an solemnly cupped his hands and said:
"Father, rest assured, I understand!"
We will be vigilant at all times and will not allow them to take any risks.
"Good that you understand!" Cheng Buzheng nodded slightly, his expression softening.
That's all!
He paused slightly before continuing:
"By the way, although you have successfully mastered this supernatural ability, it has not yet been tested in actual combat."
The path of cultivation cannot be achieved by working in isolation; one must hone one's skills in real-world practice to truly grasp the essence of a supernatural power.
He paced back and forth, his gaze fixed on the outside of the courtyard wall: "I'll go out for a while and find some suitable opponents for you."
but……"
Cheng Buzheng looked around the courtyard and shook his head:
"This small courtyard is cramped and feels a bit cramped."
Besides, your mother is still in seclusion in the quiet room, so it's not advisable to disturb her.
Here's what we'll do: in three days, you take these little guys to the 'No. 1 Spirit Herb Garden' outside the city and wait for my return.
The terrain there is open and suitable for you to test your supernatural abilities.
Upon hearing this, Cheng Ping'an also felt that his father made sense.
Although these methods of the younger generation could not possibly affect their mother who was in seclusion in the quiet room, the fact remained that the courtyard was indeed too small.
Furthermore, testing here would inevitably damage the flowers and plants in the yard and disturb my parents' peaceful environment.
Thinking of this,
Cheng Ping'an began to speak:
“Father has considered everything very well. On behalf of the younger generation, I thank you, Father.”
Cheng Buzheng shook his head slightly, a hint of gentleness flashing in his eyes:
"There's no need for us, father and son, to be so formal!"
What’s more…”
He looked at the younger generation, whose faces were still somewhat immature but whose gazes were firm, and his voice softened slightly:
"These juniors are also my bloodline."
The future of the Cheng Clan will ultimately rest on their shoulders.
"I would be gratified to be able to teach them more."
Before Cheng Ping'an could speak, Cheng Buzheng waved his hand:
"Alright, I'll leave this to you."
Take these three days to properly regulate your breathing and adjust your condition to its best.
Three days later, at the Spirit Herb Garden outside the city, I will see the results of your cultivation over the past two weeks.
Say it!
Cheng Buzheng glanced one last time at the group of juniors who were meditating cross-legged, their bodies faintly glowing with silver light. His figure flickered, and he slowly faded away like ripples on water.
In the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the courtyard, leaving only faint fluctuations of spiritual energy.
After Cheng Buzheng's figure disappeared from Cheng Ping'an's sight, the fluctuations of spiritual energy in the courtyard gradually subsided.
Cheng Ping'an stood in the courtyard, his blue Taoist robe swaying gently in the wind, before turning his gaze to the younger generation sitting cross-legged on the ground.
These children were all immersed in cultivation at the moment, with a faint silver aura flowing around them.
That was a unique spatial fluctuation during cultivation in the [Ten Directions Devouring Void Domain].
He observed quietly for a moment, his brows furrowing slightly.
next moment.
Cheng Ping'an's lips twitched slightly, and a soft voice spread through the courtyard:
"Wake up."
"Wake up."
"..."
Although the voice sounded soft, it was like a demonic chant echoing endlessly in the ears of the younger generation of the Cheng Clan.
The voice didn't seem to come from the outside world; rather, it seemed to resound directly from the depths of one's heart, carrying a strange penetrating power that reached the very soul.
Not bad!
Cheng Ping'an's seemingly simple sentence actually concealed the use of a secret technique called the "Shocking God Curse".
This technique is not an offensive method, but was created specifically to awaken cultivators in deep cultivation.
If a cultivator becomes too immersed in cultivation, they may sometimes fall into a state of "sitting in oblivion," which, if prolonged, will damage their cultivation.
This secret technique uses special sound waves to vibrate the soul, gently awakening the person.
The only side effect of the "Shocking God Curse" is that it will cause the awakened cultivator to be irritable and unable to calm down for a short period of time, resulting in various negative emotions.
But apart from that, it will not cause any real harm.
In the world of cultivation, this is undoubtedly the best secret method for unlocking the gates.
of course!
Given the inherent strength of the Cheng Clan, they should not possess such unorthodox and secret techniques.
But who can blame Cheng Buzheng when he's a Nascent Soul cultivator!
Over the years, he traveled far and wide, acquiring countless secret manuals and scriptures.
Therefore, the Cheng Clan now possesses all the secret techniques that only top-tier powers have.
next moment!
The scene in the courtyard began to change.
The older young cultivators sitting cross-legged on the ground frowned slightly, a hint of displeasure appearing on their faces.
Although their eyes were not open, their breathing was already erratic.
As if he had encountered some difficulties in his cultivation, the fluctuations of his spiritual energy became unstable.
Those with youthful faces, who looked to be only teenagers, reacted even more noticeably.
Their little faces were scrunched up, looking as if each of them had a bitter gourd stuffed into their mouth.
A boy of about twelve or thirteen even instinctively raised his hand to cover his ears.
However, the demonic sound did not enter the ear from the outside, but echoed directly in the sea of consciousness, so covering the ears was naturally useless.
soon.
The descendants of the Cheng Clan, who were sitting cross-legged on the ground, opened their eyes one after another.
When people first wake up, most of them have a look of confusion and irritability in their eyes, and their minds gradually clear only when they see the scene in front of them clearly.
What came into view was Cheng Ping'an's smiling and familiar face.
The quick-tempered Cheng Renzhi raised an eyebrow, about to ask why his cultivation had been suddenly interrupted...
The little ones, however, were even more anxious than he was.
Immediately, the children looked at Cheng Ping'an with pained expressions and began to "condemn" him in unison.
One of the girls, about eleven or twelve years old and dressed in a pale yellow dress, spoke first, her voice clear but tinged with dissatisfaction:
"Grandpa, what are you doing!"
I had just reached a high level in my cultivation and felt I was about to break through, when you interrupted me.
No!
"Grandpa, you have to compensate us, or we won't let you get away with it!"
The girl's name is Cheng Lunqing. She is one of the most talented members of the Cheng family's collateral branch. She is usually the most loved by her elders and is also the most lively and bold.
Then, a little boy of similar age, dressed in blue, chimed in.
His name is Cheng Lunyuan, and he is Cheng Qing'er's cousin.
"Sister Qing'er is right."
Just now, my internal energy cultivation was flowing very smoothly, and I felt that the space inside my body was about to expand a bit more.
If it weren't for our great-grandfather's interference, we could have continued our cultivation and strived to reach an even higher level in the methods bestowed upon us by our ancestor!
Then, a boy who looked a little older, about thirteen or fourteen years old, also stepped forward.
His name was Cheng Benhai, and he was the most mature-looking among the children. At this moment, he solemnly put on the air of a little adult and said with a serious expression:
"Grandpa, it's not terrible for people to make mistakes; what's terrible is knowing you're wrong but not correcting it."
We're asking you to pay compensation not because we value these material things, but to make a lasting impression so you won't repeat the same mistake.
After saying this...
Cheng Benhai even sighed deliberately, giving an expression that said, "I'm doing this all for your own good."
Another child nearby immediately chimed in:
"Xiao Hai is right!"
We are doing this to wish our great-grandfather a happy birthday.
You absolutely mustn't let us down!
Hearing the chatter of these little ones, the negative emotions that had been stirred up by their great-grandfather's demonic voice in the young cultivators' hearts immediately vanished.
They looked at each other, then couldn't help but smile as they watched the amusing scene unfold before them.
Cheng Ping'an was also left speechless, both amused and exasperated by these little guys.
He deliberately put on a stern face, his gaze sweeping over the few "leaders":
"For my own good?"
Is this how you treat your great-grandfather well?
And to prevent me from making mistakes?
He paused, then pointed to the children who had just spoken:
"Also, did I just interrupt your cultivation of this supernatural power to its highest level?"
You've said all the good and bad things, haven't you?
Cheng Qing'er pouted, speaking with righteous indignation:
That's exactly right!
If Grandpa doesn't believe me, he can ask Brother Xiaohai; he was just about to break through too!
Cheng Benhai nodded immediately, his face serious:
“What Sister Qing’er said is absolutely right.”
Just now, I sensed a faint expansion within my body; had I not been suddenly interrupted, I might have been able to advance further.
Upon hearing this, the young cultivators finally couldn't help but chuckle.
Cheng Huixiang shook her head and laughed:
“You little rascals, you know how to take advantage of opportunities.”
"There must have been a reason why our great-grandfather woke us up; it's not something you can just make up."
But the little ones wouldn't listen to any of that, especially Cheng Qing'er, whose eyes immediately welled up with tears when she saw that Cheng Ping'an didn't seem to have any intention of compensating her.
She pouted, her eyes glistening with tears, and her long eyelashes were already adorned with crystalline glints, as if she were about to burst into tears at any moment.
"Great-grandfather is bad!"
You didn't keep your word!
Cheng Qing'er said, her voice trembling with tears.
Similarly, the other little ones also showed determined expressions, some with their hands on their hips, some stomping their feet, making the scene quite "lively".
However, Cheng Benhai did not join in the commotion.
His dark eyes darted around, finally settling on the treasures scattered throughout the courtyard—
That was a little gadget that Cheng Buzheng had prepared to test his progress in using supernatural powers.
There are ritual implements, talismans, elixirs, and other items.
And some spatial treasures.
Immediately.
A sly glint flashed in Cheng Benhai's eyes as he secretly activated the newly mastered [Ten Directions Devouring Void Domain].
A flash of silver light appeared in his palm, revealing several treasures closest to him in the courtyard—
Two bottles of pills, three talismans, a low-grade spirit stone, and several spatial spirit ores vanished into thin air and were directly stored in his internal space.
After doing all this, a smug look appeared on Cheng Benhai's little face, but he quickly reverted to his "little adult" demeanor.
However, the smug look that flashed in his dark eyes did not escape the notice of everyone present.
snort!
No way, I'll take it myself!
Self-reliance and hard work are truly the best policy.
See this scene.
Those young cultivators who had been smiling couldn't help but show a hint of interest in their eyes.
Yes, even if our great-grandfather doesn't compensate us, these treasures are right in front of us!
The other little ones, who had initially looked like they were about to cry, seemed to realize what was happening. Their eyes lit up, and they were about to reach out their little hands to imitate Cheng Benhai when—
But some people reacted even faster than these little guys.
Cheng Ping'an smiled slightly, and without making any move, the remaining treasures in the courtyard suddenly flew up!
call out!
Phew! !
A series of streaks of light flew to Cheng Ping'an with lightning speed and then disappeared—obviously, they were stored in his storage magic treasure.
Throughout the entire process, Cheng Ping'an didn't even move a finger; he simply moved his mind, and the treasures flew towards him like swallows returning to their nests.
Seeing this, how could these little guys not understand what was going on?
"Great-grandfather, you're bad!"
"You wicked great-grandfather!"
"Bullying a child!"
The children immediately started shouting, and Cheng Qing'er, her face flushed with anger, pointed at Cheng Benhai and said:
“It’s all your fault!
"If you hadn't intervened, Grandpa wouldn't have taken all the treasures!"
Cheng Benhai looked completely innocent:
"I didn't lay a hand on him."
I was just... just practicing the supernatural powers taught by the ancestor.
"You're lying! You clearly took the things!"
"I didn't, did you see me?"
"I saw it!"
"You're the one who took those two bottles of pills!"
"..."
Only Cheng Benhai, though he wouldn't admit it, couldn't hide the smugness on his face and the cunning glint in his dark eyes, which betrayed his true feelings.
However, he still tried to appear calm and composed, with his hands behind his back, looking like it was none of his business.
His "little adult" demeanor, along with the tearful expressions of the other kids, almost made Cheng Ping'an's forced serious expression crumble.
His lips twitched slightly, clearly trying his best to suppress a laugh.
However, Cheng Ping'an also knew that if he showed even the slightest smile, things would get out of hand.
These little guys are very good at reading people's expressions. If they see me smiling, they'll definitely take advantage of me even more.
So Cheng Ping'an forcibly suppressed his laughter, his gaze sweeping sternly over the smiling young cultivators who seemed to enjoy the spectacle, before turning to the few little ones with red eyes, and said seriously:
"quiet!"
The voice wasn't loud, but it carried an undeniable authority, and the courtyard immediately fell silent.
Cheng Ping'an looked around at everyone and slowly began to speak:
"Do you know that you have now cultivated this supernatural power to the limit of your current level?"
If one forces oneself to continue cultivating, one will inevitably suffer a backlash from the power of space.
If I hadn't woken you up just now, some of you would probably already be trying to break through your bottlenecks.
His gaze fell on Cheng Benhai, giving him a meaningful look:
"Especially some of those self-proclaimed 'gifted' little guys, don't they feel that their internal space can be expanded a little more?"
Cheng Benhai felt uneasy under his gaze and lowered his head, not daring to speak.
He did have that thought just now.
They're even ready to give it a try.
