Transmigration begins with archery training

"Patriarch Bai, can we speak frankly now?"

Chen Sanshi cut to the chase, saying, "I had already guessed that you were practicing demonic arts based on the pills you refined, but I never expected that the objects used as furnaces would actually be the Bai family head's biological father and biological brothers."

"..."

Bai Liangbi's arm trembled, spilling tea onto the table.

After a long silence, he said slowly and deliberately, "It was my father who asked me to do this."

"Senior Bai requested this himself?"

Chen Sanshi asked with skepticism, "What's the reason?"

Bai Liangbi put down the teapot, looked down at the table, and fell into his memories, recounting the events in detail.

"Several years ago, I was out on business and accidentally captured a demonic cultivator. From him, I obtained a set of demonic cultivation techniques and a piece of dragon blood."

"This martial arts demon cultivation technique is called the Blood Refining Technique. It can fuse with high-grade demon blood to transform oneself, and then use 'blood refining' to rapidly improve one's cultivation level."

"The so-called 'blood refining' is, as you have seen, the process of sucking a living person dry. The closer the bloodline and the same cultivation method, the better the effect."

"I started practicing this technique a long time ago."

"But at that time, I was just pretending to be a disciple of the Seven Killings Sect to attack other hostile families or people from the Demon Suppression Division. I did not, and never intended to, harm my own people."

"Because the Bai family still has hope."

"As long as the Qingxu Sect agrees to accept the Bai family, we can move our entire clan away from Beiyang Road and escape this dangerous situation."

"Can……

"As Fellow Daoist Xiao knows, the Qingxu Sect was unwilling to get involved in the matter afterward."

"Furthermore, after my father returned from the Nine Nether Forbidden Land, he was barely clinging to life, and there was no one to help him."

"If the Bai family cannot produce a martial artist with perfect true strength after Father passes away, then they will die silently."

"So before my father died, he asked me to use the Blood Refining Technique on him."

"As for the fifth and seventh brothers..."

At this point, Bai Liangbi's voice trembled slightly, but his tone was firm and angry: "They deserved to die!"

"Fellow Daoist Xiao is unaware of this."

"The fifth and seventh brothers have been colluding with the people of the Demon Suppression Division for the past few years, and have repeatedly tried to steal the clan's treasure and offer it to those people!"

"This is the foundation of my Bai family!"

"If the foundation is destroyed, the Bai family will cease to exist. They disobeyed their ancestors and defied the family rules first, so as the head of the family, I should clean up the mess!"

"Using them to cultivate demonic arts is actually a form of atonement!"

"Now that things have come to this, I have reached the Great Perfection of True Power, and all other materials are ready. It won't be long before I break through to the Clay Sculpture Golden Body Realm!"

"At that time, even if I guard Zhongzi, I will no longer need to be afraid!"

"Therefore, I would like to ask Fellow Daoist Xiao to protect me during my seclusion. Once I successfully break through, I will also help you eliminate your enemies in the future!"

After hearing the whole story, Chen Sanshi nodded slightly, still feeling that something was strange, but he couldn't quite put his finger on why.

"After all the twists and turns, it is still a family heirloom of the nobility."

He asked, "Patriarch Bai, could you reveal some details so that I can be prepared?"

"..."

Bai Liangbi hesitated for a long time before finally slamming his hand on the table: "Fine, now that things have come to this, there's nothing left to hide from Fellow Daoist Xiao!"

If he continues to conceal the truth, he will not be able to gain the other party's trust, and in times of crisis, the Bai family may lose even their last ally.

"only……"

Bai Liangbi looked at the person beside him and said, "I'm really sorry, Fellow Daoist Shangguan, but I can only trust Fellow Daoist Xiao."

"Haha~"

Shangguan Siheng chuckled and said, "No problem. Although I am curious, it is not something I absolutely have to know."

"But I have another request."

"Fellow Daoist Bai, could you please let me take a look at that Blood Refining Technique?"

"no problem."

Bai Liangbi nodded in agreement and tossed a jade slip at the other party: "However, to cultivate this technique, one needs dragon blood of the third rank or higher. Even if you learn it, you will not be able to cultivate it."

"It doesn't matter."

Shangguan Siheng picked up the jade slip and began to intently browse its contents.

"Then please wait here, Fellow Daoist Shangguan. We'll be right back. Fellow Daoist Xiao, please follow me."

Bai Liangbi left the cave and led the way.

The two left the residential area of ​​Dusk Valley and arrived at Medicine Valley.

"Has Fellow Daoist Xiao's path of cultivation been fraught with difficulties?"

As Bai Liangbi walked, he suddenly asked a question, and without waiting for the other party's reply, he said to himself, "The rise of my Bai family is actually only a matter of the last few decades."

"In the beginning, my Bai family members were just ordinary people, peddlers and laborers, struggling to even have enough to eat, let alone cultivate."

"It wasn't until later, by chance, that our ancestor obtained a set of 'Breaking Wind Sword Techniques' and truly embarked on the path of cultivation."

"But that was just the lowest level of martial artist. It took the efforts of six generations to cultivate a true martial artist who could join the Demon Suppression Division and become a lackey."

"If nothing unexpected happens, even if a family like ours strives for another hundred or a thousand years, we will probably only be silver-ranked demon-suppressing guards at most."

"But who knew that such an incredible opportunity would suddenly fall upon my grandfather, allowing my Bai family to grow rapidly within fifty years. Later, we came to Beiyang Road, occupied a spiritual vein, and gained a foothold."

"This incredible opportunity is hidden in the Valley of Medicine."

"It seems."

Chen Sanshi slowly said, "The clan's treasure is indeed more precious than the Divine Wood Elixir."

"Do you know why the Demon Suppression Division, the Li family, and the Seven Killings Sect, despite their covetousness for the treasure, dare not openly attack Twilight Valley?"

"It's because once this item appears in the world, not to mention the Golden Core sects, even Nascent Soul sects and the Heavenly Water Holy Sect will try to snatch it."

"In that case, no one will be able to get it."

As they spoke, Bai Liangbi had already passed through the herb garden and arrived in a denser forest. He parted a large patch of spiritual herbs to reveal an extremely hidden stone door to an underground cave.

"Buzz, boom, boom!"

The stone gate was wide open, but there was no light in the narrow passageway.

"Right inside."

Bai Liangbi was the first to enter.

Chen Sanshi stroked his storage ring and used his Qi Observation Technique to its fullest extent to deal with any unexpected situations. Even if it was unlikely that the Bai family head was lying in ambush on him, he still had to be on guard.

"Fellow Daoist Xiao, I have a question I'd like to ask you."

"We cultivators who seek immortality are actually only seeking to live as long as heaven and earth. We should be living in harmony and helping each other. But why are we always fighting each other and the order is in chaos?"

Bai Liangbi answered his own question: "It's a resource!"

"The spiritual energy between heaven and earth is limited, and the rare and precious natural materials that can aid cultivation are even scarcer. If one wants to attain the Great Dao, one has no choice but to strive and compete for them."

"And I want to see what you see, which can create endless treasures of nature!"

Its name is 'Breath of Earth'!
