Crafting an Immortal Race with Daily Hexagrams

The sudden appearance of He Yi tightened Shen Xiuyan’s expression, and a large amount of Vast Righteous Qi immediately appeared on his skin!

In an instant, a huge golden ”Law” character emerged, its flickering light shining upon the purple Demonic Qi formed by He Yi!

As the two met, they were like fire and water.

”What an annoying aura!”

He Yi’s voice came from the purple mist, with a surge of Demonic Qi transforming into a spear, shooting directly at Shen Xiuyan!

At the same time, the Vast Righteous Qi on Shen Xiuyan’s body surged intensely.

”Stop!”

Shen Chongxu waved his hand, dispersing the spear made of Demonic Qi summoned by He Yi, and then said, ”This is my nephew.”

”Xiuyan, He Yi is not an enemy.”

After introducing the two, he turned to He Yi and said, ”I have urgent matters to discuss with Xiuyan, requiring us to conceal certain heavenly secrets.”

Upon hearing this, He Yi glanced at Shen Xiuyan, with a hint of displeasure in her eyes, and waved her hand lightly.

In an instant, dense purple Demonic Qi formed a purple light shield within the sleeping chamber.

”Done.”

Seeing the purple light shield form, Shen Chongxu looked at Shen Xiuyan and said, ”Speak freely.”

However, Shen Xiuyan’s gaze was directed at Celestial Demon He Yi.

Meeting his eyes, He Yi said with some annoyance, ”Little one, I know all of your uncle’s secrets.”

Shen Chongxu echoed this, ”Her situation is quite special; you can see her as another soul, united with your uncle.”

”Don’t worry.”

Hearing this, Shen Xiuyan finally withdrew his gaze.

”Uncle, did you previously sense any anomaly in the bloodline?”

Bloodline?

Shen Chongxu furrowed his brows slightly and nodded, ”Indeed, I sensed it, but...”

When the bloodline anomaly occurred earlier, he was in seclusion, cultivating the ”Primordial Golden Seal,” attempting to reach the Late Stage of Fetal Breathing in Demon Cultivation.

The ”Primordial Golden Seal” absorbs Primordial Demon Qi between heaven and earth during cultivation.

The Primordial Demon Qi is a complex energy amalgam, which naturally entails various illusions and peculiar feelings during cultivation, so he didn’t pay it much attention.

But now, Shen Xiuyan had come a long way personally, mentioning the matter of the bloodline.

Shen Chongxu realized that there might be an issue with the Shen Family’s bloodline.

He immediately immersed his Divine Sense into his body, scrutinizing carefully.

He Yi, floating in the void, also felt curious about the Shen Family’s bloodline, quietly splitting a portion of her Divine Sense to invade Shen Chongxu’s body.

Moments later—

The two opened their eyes almost simultaneously!

”What!?”

”A ruse!?”

Shen Chongxu, shocked beyond words, finally understood why the family had sent Shen Xiuyan, the candidate for Patriarch, here personally.

He also understood why Shen Xiuyan was so cautious, needing to obscure heavenly secrets before speaking.

”Xiuyan, is all of this true?”

Like Shen Chongming and the others, Shen Chongxu also couldn’t believe the information that appeared out of nowhere in their bloodline was true.

If so, it would completely overturn all cultivators’ understanding in the Cultivation Realm!

”How can Golden Nature be a ruse?”

He Yi murmured, her stunning visage filled with confusion.

”As the Celestial Demon, even you don’t know about this matter?”

Shen Chongxu, snapping back to reality, turned to He Yi to ask.

In his view, He Yi was a Celestial Demon who had lived for countless years, well-versed in many matters, and should know something about the related secrets.

Yet from He Yi’s expression, it was clear she also didn’t know about the ”Golden Nature ruse.”

He Yi shook her head slightly, ”I haven’t interacted with many Human Race Cultivators, so I’m naturally not very clear about this.”

”But... what exactly is your Shen Family’s bloodline?”

”How could such an ancient and obscure secret appear in your bloodline inheritance?”

Hearing this, both Shen Chongxu and Shen Xiuyan remained silent.

They also had no knowledge of the Shen Family bloodline matter.

A moment later—

”Great Grandfather said this matter is top secret and must never be disclosed.”

”Otherwise, it will surely bring catastrophic disaster to our Shen Family!”

Shen Chongxu smiled wryly upon hearing this.

He was not foolish; even if Shen Xiuyan didn’t say it, after knowing this secret, he was aware of the terrifying existence behind it.

”Kid, this might be related to the secret between the Immortal Race and the Human Race.”

He Yi suddenly spoke after contemplating for a while.

Immortal Race?

Uncle and nephew were intrigued, fixing their gaze on her.

He Yi pondered for a moment and then softly said, ”In my memories, the Immortal Race should be Innate Humans, the earliest batch of Humans after heaven and earth were first created according to your understanding.”

”They, along with some Innate Divine Beasts and Ancient Demons belong to the category of Innate Beings.”

”As for the current Human Race, it’s said that an Ancient Celestial People created them mimicking its own body.”

Upon saying this, a look of frustration and resignation appeared on He Yi’s face.

”I’ve really been victimized by you...”

Shen Chongxu heard this and curiously asked, ”What do you mean by that?”

”How did I harm you?”

He Yi immediately retorted, ”Had you not used [Demon’s Arrival] to summon me from distant spacetime, how would I be trapped in this realm unable to escape?”

Trapped?

Shen Chongxu frowned, ”So earlier, when I sacrificed over a century of lifespan to undo [Demon’s Arrival] Secret Skill to set you free, you weren’t willing to leave not out of gratitude, but simply because you couldn’t leave?”

Seeing how serious he looked, a flicker of panic spread across He Yi’s face, realizing she might have let slip in a moment of excitement.

”I... you...”

She tried to explain, but Shen Chongxu coldly interrupted, ”Knowing full well you couldn’t leave, you still told me how to undo [Demon’s Arrival], watching as I wasted a century of lifespan in vain?”

Feeling Shen Chongxu’s genuine anger, He Yi suddenly felt a sense of panic.
