Cultivating Immortality in a Family: I Prove Immortality Through the Chaotic Dao Realm

Chapter 272 The Storm Is Coming, Hidden Away.

Xuan Li saw Chen Ruiang's shocked and pale reaction, but she had already fled far away in an instant.

She certainly wouldn't explain Chen Ruiang's reaction, nor would she take it to heart.

Next destination: Crane Fairy Ridge.

Of course, along the way, we would also pick up people.

With Chen Qian providing such a large amount of resources, it wouldn't matter if the Chen family temporarily gave up the smaller resource points outside of the three main spiritual sites.

This will prevent unscrupulous individuals from having the opportunity to cause trouble or using it as a pretext for creating problems.

……

With Xuan Li's abilities, she didn't even need to show herself to quickly complete the setup of Crane Immortal Ridge.

The same strategy was employed: deploy troops, retain personnel, and provide a large amount of resources.

Chen Hongbing, who was stationed in charge, had received a message from Old Ancestor Chen. Although he was deeply impressed by Xuan Li's methods, he was still aware of the situation.

He was naturally overjoyed to receive the resources and arrange personnel, and said no more.

Xuan Li's last stop on this trip was naturally Qianlong Mountain.

This place is also considered Chen Qian's training ground, and with Chen Yunyi, one of the matriarchs, presiding over it, Xuan Li's attitude will naturally be much more solemn.

She appeared and met with Chen Yunyi, presenting her with many ice-type resources carefully selected by Chen Qian, making Chen Yunyi's cultivation path smoother.

At this time, Chen Yunyi had successfully advanced to the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment, and her strength had also reached a new level.

The Grand Elder Chen Ruiyang has also stabilized his foundation and his physical body is full of qi and blood. He will soon officially go into seclusion to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage.

From Xuan Li's perspective, as long as Chen Ruiyang proceeds steadily and doesn't excessively pursue high-level foundations, his chances of successfully establishing his foundation are still quite high.

……

In just two or three days, Xuan Li completed all of Chen Qian's arrangements with extremely high efficiency.

At this time, it had only been three or four days since the Beast Extermination Ranking sub-rankings were opened, and the shocks that would follow had not yet begun to develop, so everything was still going smoothly.

Within the territory of Li Kingdom, thanks to the secret protection of Jade Sword True Monarch, even if some forces wanted to do something, they wouldn't have time to act.

Before the storm even began, Xuan Li had already gracefully withdrawn.

With these three "Nine Luminaries Imperial Realm Arrays", the three spiritual sites can also use the "transmission" script to transport people and supplies, so it doesn't matter if they are closed off for several years.

It will only develop faster and better.

These three great formations also served as Xuan Li's eyes and ears.

If anyone dares to attack or take action, she is ready to fight at any time and deliver a surprise.

This completely eliminated any worries Chen Qian might have about his upcoming long period of seclusion.

Of the ordinary people Xuan Li gathered along the way, aside from those closely related to the Chen family who were settled in three spiritual sites, there were still tens of thousands left.

These people were originally scattered across various resource points of the Chen family. Once they lost the protection of the Chen family's garrison personnel, their survival would become precarious.

Xuan Li simply took them with her.

This was because Chen Qian had instructed before setting off that, if he had the capacity, he should bring as many intelligent beings as possible to the Wheel of Fate.

The Firethorn City in the realm, after several years of development, has only a few hundred newborns.

However, for the Destiny Wheel Realm to advance to a Lesser Thousand World, there are certain requirements regarding the number of intelligent beings within the realm.

In the Myriad Beasts Heaven, tens of thousands of various kinds of demonic beasts can be counted as intelligent beings, but even if you add the tens of thousands of people on the main continent, it is still far from enough.

This time, Xuan Li went on a business trip and brought some people back with her, which is only natural.

This action conveniently created a second city in the Destiny Wheel Realm—Hidden Dragon City.

These are mostly ordinary people without spiritual roots, but of course, there must be a very small number of those who have the aptitude for cultivation who have slipped through the net.

After these people are selected, suitable young girls can be added to the list of attendants.

Those who are unsuitable, along with young boys, can serve as the first members of the monastic order.

……

In the eastern region of Kurosawa, somewhere within the core waters controlled by the Raging Rhinoceros King.

Here, the water surface is churning with black waves, and layers of murky air rise between heaven and earth. From time to time, huge black shadows flash across the water.

A thousand feet above, the "Moon-Viewing Platform," the large aerial residence of the Drunken Moon Palace, floats in the void.

Su Yueshang leaned on the railing at the edge of the Moon-Viewing Platform, gazing into the distance. Dark clouds surged beneath her feet like turbulent waves.

A crystal-like "Moon Shadow Communication Talisman" hovered in her palm, buzzing and vibrating.

Most of the messages conveyed were about Chen Qian.

The golden light piercing the sky on the crystal tablet of Tianfeng Pass was breathtaking, but the subsequent changes were even more vexing to her.

"Two million six hundred and seven thousand three hundred and eighty-five..."

Her fingertips trembled slightly, and a storm brewed deep within her icy eyes.

"The points from Kongming and the Minotaur King have actually been credited to my husband."

She knew the whole story better than anyone else.

It is clear that none of the demonic beasts and orcs captured by Xuan Li have died.

However, they have all been considered by the Mirror Realm as those whose karmic ties have been severed.

Indeed, once they enter the realm of destiny, their karmic ties with this realm are severed.

Several Foundation Establishment female cultivators stood behind Su Yueshang, their lips slightly pursed beneath the light veil.

Ling Shuang, the senior disciple of Drunken Moon Palace, murmured absentmindedly, "Uncle Su, this Chen Yunqian... is it true that he is only a Foundation Establishment cultivator?"

The names on the list, like the scorching sun, have crushed the brilliance of all the geniuses below the fourth rank in the southern part of the Dragon Tail Domain into dust.

People outside of Li Kingdom do not yet know.

However, as fellow cultivators from the Li Kingdom, Chen Qian's information was quickly learned by many forces.

Not to mention, not long ago, Su Yueshang had just attended Chen Qian's Foundation Establishment Ceremony.

Su Yueshang closed her eyes briefly, then opened them again with a solemn expression: "The all-out attack on the Raging Rhinoceros King is about to begin! We must coordinate with the other two factions. From this moment forward, all discussion of the Beast Extermination Ranking is strictly prohibited!"

Ling Shuang and the other Foundation Establishment female cultivators beside her straightened up and said solemnly, "Yes, we will obey our master's orders."

Su Yueshang gazed in the direction of Kongming Island, her jade-like hands clenched tightly in her sleeves, thinking to herself, "A storm is coming... My lord, is this overwhelming karma a blessing or a curse?"

……

Lou Yun Kingdom, deep within the Azure Sky Mountains, at the headquarters of the Blood River Palace in the Dragon Tail Domain, lies the "Ten Thousand Bones Blood Pool".

The viscous blood plasma churned and boiled, steaming up a pungent, fishy, ​​scarlet mist.

On the white bone throne by the pool, the Bloodthirsty Ancestor's withered, eagle-claw-like fingers were slowly caressing a "Blood Reflection Soul Mirror" carved from a human skull.

The mirror surface shimmered with blood, revealing the three characters "Chen Yunqian" on the Beast Extermination List, along with the breathtaking string of numbers that followed.

"Two million six hundred thousand points...hehe..."

A hoarse laugh, like the cry of an owl, echoed in the empty blood cave. "A mere Foundation Establishment cultivator, interesting, truly interesting!"

His murky, bloodshot eyes swept over the black-robed elders standing below. "Has the decree from the Beast God Imperial Court arrived?"

An elder bowed, his voice hoarse like the scraping of rust: "Reporting to the Ancestor, the Imperial Court's 'Golden Throne' has issued a blood edict: Investigate! This child may possess a secret capable of shaking the 'Ancestral Dragon Heavenly Wall'! He may also be burdened with the 'Remnants of Chaos'!"

The Bloodthirsty Ancestor's eyes flashed with a blood-red light: "Chaotic Legacy... Order 'Blood Shadow' to rush to Li Kingdom immediately and find out everything about this Chen Yunqian at all costs!"

"I must know what secrets that junior is hiding!"

With a flick of his finger, a drop of foul blood fell into the pool, instantly transforming into hundreds of tiny blood snakes that disappeared into the void.

……

Qitian Kingdom, Qingtian Peak.

The magnificent "Guantian Pavilion" is like a celestial palace, floating among the misty clouds.

This is the central hub of the southern beast-slaying sub-ranking in the Dragon Tail Domain. The towering pavilion hangs atop ten thousand feet of clouds, with a ceaseless sea of ​​clouds and fierce winds flowing beneath its feet.

There were no crystal tablets shared by other nodes inside the pavilion, but rather a slowly rotating projection, like a vast starry sky.

Each star on it represents a cultivator who has made the list.

At this moment, the star representing "Chen Yunqian" is bursting with a dazzling light comparable to a star in the center of the starry sea, making all the surrounding stars dim.

"Om-"

Beside the star map, a bronze armillary sphere suddenly began to rotate on its own, emitting a heavy hum.

The mid-stage Nascent Soul inspector on duty suddenly stood up, his usually calm face revealing shock: "He has only activated the Mirror Void Token for less than two months, and this Chen Yunqian is indeed at the Foundation Establishment stage, yet he was able to kill a mid-stage fourth-tier Minotaur Beast King. This... is simply against the natural order!"

He was rapidly calculating with one hand, while the other hand couldn't help but scratch his thinning hair.

The Dao patterns flickered before him, but it was as if he had crashed into a chaotic fog. The backlash caused him to groan, and a trickle of golden blood spilled from the corner of his lips.

"Inspector!" Several high-ranking deacons rushed forward in alarm.

The old man raised his hand to stop him, wiped away the blood, and his eyes gleamed: "Report to the Kunwu Sect headquarters immediately! This situation is beyond our control."

The deacon was somewhat apprehensive.

"Yes!"

He then hurriedly left.

The old man paused, then said in a low voice, "At least we shouldn't be too much slower than those demons from the Blood River Palace!"

……

Dragon Head Domain, Kunwu Sect.

This place is a place of continuous fairy mountains, filled with pure air, far removed from the atmosphere of the human world.

Ask the Immortal Terrace.

The jade platform floats in the boundless void, with a slowly flowing, dazzling galaxy beneath its feet and the "Zhou Tian Xing Gui" (a celestial orbit) above its head, which stretches for hundreds of millions of miles and is composed of countless ancient runes.

An elderly man, dressed in a simple linen robe and with a rustic face, seemed shrouded in the dust of time as he gazed at an ancient star diamond in the star trail, representing the "power of judgment."

Suddenly, an inconspicuous "message star symbol" lit up on the edge of the star platform. This was an urgent report from Qingtian Peak in the Dragon Tail Domain. The light flashed and disappeared into the old man's brow.

"Ok?"

The old man was the Supreme Elder of the Kunwu Sect, "Master Tianxing," and a slight ripple appeared in his eyes, which had remained calm for millennia.

His gaze seemed to pierce through endless space, landing on the shining star "Chen Yunqian" in the southern part of the Dragon Tail Domain, and then sweeping over the Mirror Star Diamond in the star orbit.

"The chaotic mist...this Chen Yunqian..."

Celestial Master tapped his fingertip lightly in the void, and the trajectory of the southern part of the Dragon Tail Domain in the star trail was suddenly magnified. Countless causal threads appeared intertwined, and one of them, an incomparably tough dark golden thread, actually probed into a chaotic region that could not be seen.

But the thread passed through the chaotic region and sprouted a branch, which was closely connected to a point in a certain sea area.

"Beyond fate, the secrets of heaven are not revealed... Ling Su asked the girl, 'They should be arriving soon.'"

The Celestial Being whispered, his voice creating subtle ripples in the starry sky.

"It seems this 'abandoned land' can also give rise to a giant Kun that can completely change the course of history... Hehe~"

"I don't need to do anything, that's fine. I can just observe and see how things develop."

……

Zulong Mountains, the Orcish Imperial Court.

Deep within the dark and boundless underground cave, there are rugged stone palaces, but more numerous are magnificent buildings constructed from countless huge, smooth, obsidian-like animal bones, mostly in a bizarre and ferocious style.

A black-gold throne hangs high, constructed from the skulls of nine enormous beasts.

On the throne, there was a figure shrouded in surging shadows and crimson lightning. The rest of the figure was indistinct, but only two molten gold pupils shone with a terrifying brightness.

Beneath the throne, a churning pool of blood was projecting images of the Beast Extermination Ranking.

The humble phantom of the Bloodthirsty Ancestor was reporting the information he had gathered so far in the pool.

"Dragon Tail Domain?! What kind of remote and desolate place is that?"

"Li Guo... Chen Yunqian..."

The being on the throne emitted a deep rumble, and its inhuman, beast-like language caused the space to tremble.

Suddenly, the void beside them rippled, and from its shadow, a tall orc clad in scales and sporting curved ram horns stepped forward, his voice hoarse: "Your Majesty, shall we awaken the Imperial Blood Guard?"

The golden pupils of the thunderous figure flickered slightly: "No rush, let Mad Blood and the others test its quality first."

“Interesting, very interesting. But nothing can affect the resurgence of the progenitor.”

"Even if this little guy is incredibly fierce and wipes out all the monsters on the outskirts, so what?"

"Haha~ Hahaha."

……

Phoenix Forest Valley, inside the Nine Luminaries Imperial Realm Formation.

Chen Ruiang stood atop the newly built "Star Gazing Tower," holding the mysterious jade talisman in his hand.

In the past few days, he has noticed the undercurrents surging outside the valley from time to time.

With the support of the grand formation, even a fourth-order divine sense could not escape the detection of the Nine Luminaries Grand Formation.

At first, this terrifying pressure, like a thorn in his back, always made him unable to sleep or eat.

But they soon discovered that the seemingly invisible yet solid barrier above their heads, as strong as the starry sky, firmly kept all prying eyes out.

He only needed to lightly touch the "suppress" character in the jade talisman with his divine sense to easily suppress all probing divine senses and even cause them serious injury.

This feeling is truly wonderful.

It even made him somewhat addicted.

Because these divine senses, regardless of which one, are far superior to his own, how could he normally perceive them?

Looking at the newly settled returning clansmen in the valley, the mountains of spiritual materials piled up in the storeroom, and the vibrant energy emanating from the young disciples.

The wind was high and the waves were rough outside, but the old man felt exceptionally at ease.

Chen Qian's arrangements were both timely and incredibly prudent.

Having been the patriarch for so many years, I've never felt so relaxed.

“Little Qian…” Ancestor Chen looked towards the direction of the Black Swamp Plain, and finally let out a long sigh, which merged into the faint light flowing in the Nine Luminaries Array. “I only hope that you will return as soon as possible… as a dragon.”

……

The Realm of Fate Wheel, the core space of the Heaven of Ten Thousand Beasts.

Chen Qian stepped into this place from the Xuanzhu Palace martial arts training ground.

The Kunpeng demon core in the center of the space rotated like the core of a galaxy, and the annihilating golden light washed over the bound, enormous demon body of the Void Demon Emperor and the shattered void origin like a tide.

Chen Qian arrived above the demon core and sat cross-legged in the center of the golden vortex.

He silently began to circulate his cultivation technique, and soon his acupoints became like black holes, rapidly and greedily devouring and refining the vast essence and fragments of rules around him.

Xuan Li stood quietly to one side, her six wings drooping, the power of the Holy Judgment drawing the pure essence into her realm.

One person and one Holy Spirit, and they calmly entered a deep state of cultivation.

The immense waves caused by fame, the widespread tremors caused by the rankings, and the scrutinizing gazes cast by giants from all sides...

All this noise and scheming was isolated by the Wheel of Fate, as if it had nothing to do with the two of them.

At this moment, Chen Qian felt a booming sound in his mind, his internal magical power surged like a river, and his essence was as vast as the ocean.

His energy and spirit have begun to gradually coalesce.

He has begun his charge towards the realm of "True Elixir," which holds limitless possibilities.
