Crafting an Immortal Race with Daily Hexagrams

These things were looted by the Bai Xuan Sect in the Southern Border.

He brought back a lot this time.

”These things are for you, you need to cultivate well in the future.”

”Your Spirit Root quality is of Middle Grade; after so many years, you shouldn’t have just reached Fetal Breathing.”

”The Jade Bottle contains a wisp of Middle Grade Innate Spiritual Qi, to be used when you break through Fetal Breathing in the future.”

Upon hearing this, Liu Yiran showed a trace of a smile.

”Thank you, Young Master.”

”Put it away.”

Shen Chongxu spoke calmly, then suddenly changed the subject: ”How is your brother doing now?”

Years ago, when Liu Yiran took the initiative to come to him during his drunken state, it was mostly the doing of her ambitious brother.

Shen Chongxu had a deep impression of him.

”He...”

Mentioning her brother, Liu Yiran said with a sorrowful expression: ”During the third great harvest, the Shen Family confronted Jianan Temple.”

”He died in battle at Celestial Aromatic Mountain...”

Upon hearing this, Shen Chongxu sighed softly.

”Then in the future, you can live well within the Shen Family and take care of Xiubai.”

After saying this, he removed the barrier and opened the room door.

”Young man, come in.”

Shen Chongxu called out lightly.

Outside, Shen Xiubai rushed into the room.

Seeing the natural expressions on his parents’ faces, as if everything was fine, Shen Xiubai immediately cupped his hands and said: ”Ah Die, Ah Niang, tomorrow I will ask Grandfather to arrange a wedding ceremony for you two.”

Since he wanted to give his mother a status, it had to be a formal marriage.

This was what he wanted to strive for his mother.

Upon hearing this, Liu Yiran repeatedly stopped him: ”My son, do not act rashly.”

”Your mother and father are at this age, why cause trouble?”

On the side, Shen Chongxu also said: ”Father’s identity is not suitable for exposure, just leave the wedding matter.”

Upon returning, he had avoided many cultivators of the Southern Border along the way, and after returning, he still wanted to continue to help the Shen Family secretly gather intelligence in the guise of the Sect Leader of Bai Xuan Sect.

If they were to hold a flamboyant wedding, this identity would be exposed.

Upon hearing this, Shen Xiubai looked somewhat gloomy.

”Alright, it’s already late, tomorrow your father and I have important matters to discuss with your grandfather and others, rest now.”

Upon hearing this, Liu Yiran inquired: ”Should I go change to a new quilt?”

Shen Chongxu nodded.

Shen Xiubai also quickly cupped his hands and returned to his room in the courtyard.

After he left, Shen Chongxu said: ”You sleep; I’ll cultivate here.”

...

Early the next morning.

Inside the Black Water Pavilion.

Everyone sat together in a circle.

”Brother Xu, I already had someone inform Chongxuan of your return last night.”

”He is coming back from Huaisang, but it will take four or five days.”

Shen Chongming was the first to speak.

Shen Chongxu nodded, then turned to look at Shen Yuan and Shen Wenxing in front of him and said: ”Grandfather, Uncle.”

”I obtained a piece of news in the Southern Border this time.”

”In the Yangnao Land, forces like Fushan Country, Yin Corpse Sect, and Jianan Temple have been frequently mobilizing their cultivators recently, with their target seemingly being the Yangnao Land.”

”I’m worried that this time they might tear the peace and not abide by the agreements of the past.”

Upon hearing this, everyone present frowned.

”Brother Xu, do you mean they intend to send Golden Core experts to the Yangnao Land?”

Shen Chongxu nodded and then said: ”Recently, a rumor suddenly spread in the Southern Border.”

”The rumor is said to have originated from the Observing Heaven Pavilion in the Southern Border and might be related to the movements of several large Golden Core forces.”

Facing everyone’s gaze, Shen Chongxu continued: ”The Observing Heaven Pavilion is a Purple Mansion Influence in the Southern Border, and they are said to be highly skilled at interpreting celestial mechanisms, just like Grandfather, who is also an expert in the Path of Great Derivation.”

”The rumor pertains to ’Dao Collapse’ and ’Doomsday.’”

Doomsday?

Upon hearing this, Shen Wen’an couldn’t help but look at his father Shen Yuan.

After exchanging glances, Shen Wen’an said: ”What exactly does this Doomsday rumor from the Observing Heaven Pavilion say?”

Shen Chongxu replied in a deep voice: ”It is a song, and within the song, there are seven phenomena, each phenomenon occurring over the span of a jiazi (sixty years).”

”And among them, ’Celestial Weary Golden Radiance’ has already been confirmed as the ’Geng and Xin Origin Gold’ that appeared years ago at the border of Fushan Country and Celestial Sword City.”

”Therefore, based on this rumor, it is deduced that there are roughly four hundred years left until the Doomsday catastrophe descends.”

Hearing this, Shen Wen’an looked at Shen Yuan again.

They now clearly understood that the so-called ”seven phenomena” likely referred to the seven Spirits in the full Yangnao Land.

And the ”phenomena” must be caused by the Spiritual Transformation of these Spirits.

Each Spiritual Transformation lasts for sixty years, and once all seven Spirits are transformed, those Nascent Soul True Monarchs will proceed to extract the Dao Source of the Yangnao Land.

However, after careful thought, Shen Wen’an didn’t think there were really four hundred years left until this so-called ”Doomsday catastrophe.”

At least from what he currently knew, the Spirit in the Stone Egg at the bottom of Magma Lake was already undergoing Spiritual Transformation.

This was sufficient to prove that the ”Celestial Weary Golden Radiance” that Shen Chongxu spoke of wasn’t necessarily the first Spirit to transform.

He even suspected that during the time when Daying Immortal Mansion ruled over the Yangnao Land, there were already Spiritual Transformations occurring.

If that weren’t the case, forces like the Tribulation Fire Sect and Underworld wouldn’t have been so anxious to destroy the Daying Immortal Mansion.

”Four hundred years...”

Shen Wenxing, without knowing the specific details, could only ponder with a solemn expression: ”If this rumor is true, whether our Shen Family could have the strength to stand on its own in four hundred years?”

Among cultivators, the lifespan of someone in the Golden Core Realm can be up to five hundred years, which means four hundred years is actually not that long.

”So, do you suspect that the movements of several major Golden Core forces are influenced by this Doomsday catastrophe?”
