Monarch Of Time

Chapter 1003 The Shun familyʼs rise

Three thick booklets, a large pile of white-colored spirit stones tinged with hints of gray, and a gigantic green vine all appeared in the previously empty courtyard of the Shun estate, drawing in gasps of cold air.

Almost instinctively, Shun Fang and the others all glanced at the enormous green vine first, before their gazes swept past the pile of middle-grade spirit stones and eventually settled on the three thick booklets.

The first booklet was hoary and timeworn, as if it had weathered the passage of time for countless eons, and yet, the dim silver light coming from its cover was still flickering with an inextinguishable gleam.

The second book seemed to be in a much better condition. It didnʼt look as ancient and frail as the first one, but the aura it emitted was just as intense. The soft white flames burning on its surface seemed eerily similar, and yet at the same time different from the first bookʼs pale silver light.

As for the third booklet, its decrepit cover looked just as old and frail as the first, but the four words etched on its cover shone with a radiant golden glow that overshone the brilliance of the other two.

Shun Fang, Shun An, and even Shun Fen, all stared at the three books with enraptured expressions. Even Lin Huefeng was struggling to avert her gaze from them and had to suppress her inner desires as much as possible.

However, a few moments later, the beautiful woman veered her gaze away and eventually focused on the pile of spirit stones next to them, before she turned to Shun Long and asked with a disbelieving expression

ʼʼThese... are these all middle-grade spirit stones?ʼʼ

Of course, her reaction was well within reason. After all, Lin Huefeng may not have been aware of the true value of the 3 ancient booklets in front of her, but as a late-stage Heaven grade cultivator, she was well aware of how rare middle-grade spirit stones were.

Even in the Desolate East, only the sect masters of those powerful sects were qualified to use such spirit stones for their cultivation, and even, those people would be frugal with their spending, only using them when they were about to ascend a minor or major realm.

And yet, the pile in front of her didnʼt just have a few hundred or even a thousand middle-grade spirit stones, but more than a million.

With a smile on his face, Shun Long looked at Lin Huefeng and said

ʼʼMother-in-law, you are a member of this family as well so why donʼt you take a look at those three books first? Maybe one of them will suit you.ʼʼ

Lin Huefeng was taken aback when she heard that, finally finding herself at a loss for words for the first time in a while. Didnʼt Shun Long take these books out for his parents and Shun Fen to choose from? He was actually offering one of them to her?

Meanwhile, Liu Meiʼs lips curved into a dazzling, radiant smile when she noticed the interaction between Shun Long and her mother.

Although she had also obtained 3 immortal-grade cultivation techniques from the fourth trial of the ʼHeavenly Towerʼ, hearing Shun Long call her mother a part of the Shun family and offering her one of those cultivation techniques still filled her heart with endless warmth.

As for those 3 immortal-grade techniques Shun Long had taken out, they were indeed the ones he had obtained from the fourth trial of the ʼHeavenly Towerʼ.

The first book contained the ʼRift Convergenceʼ, a middle-rank immortal-grade cultivation technique that was especially suitable for cultivators of the ʼDao of Spaceʼ.

The second booklet he had taken out contained the ʼPath of the Setting Sunʼ. An immortal-grade technique that was more suited towards cultivators with affinity for the ʼDao of Fireʼ.

As for the third booklet, it contained a technique called ʼWorld of Limitless Lightʼ. An immortal-grade cultivation technique that was more suitable for those with affinity towards the ʼDao of Lightʼ.

And yet, Shun Long knew that it wasnʼt just cultivators of those Daos who could practice these cultivation techniques. Anyone, regardless of the Dao they had comprehended could cultivate using one of them and see tremendous results.

As for cultivators below the Heaven grade; If they could somehow get their hands on one of these immortal-grade cultivation techniques, their chances of comprehending one of those Daos in the future would increase significantly as a result.

ʼʼHahaha! Huefeng, since Longʼer said so, thereʼs no point in you being shy.ʼʼ Shun Fangʼs jubilant voice reverberated throughout the courtyard as the handsome middle-aged man stepped forward, his gaze almost burning as he stared at the second booklet with the white, ethereal flames.

As a renowned formation master of the ʼSky Fortune Kingdomʼ, Shun Fang valued techniques suited towards the fire element more than any other, so naturally, he ended up picking the ʼPath of the Setting Sunʼ without any hesitation.

As for Shun An and Lin Huefeng, after a few moments of contemplation, they picked the ʼWorld of Limitless Lightʼ and the ʼRift Convergenceʼ respectively. It was only Shun Fen who had yet to choose a cultivation technique.

Noticing the pouting expression on the young girlʼs face who had seemingly been forgotten, Shun Long patted Shun Fenʼs head with a smile, before he turned his gaze towards the ʼHeaven Swallowing vineʼ and sent it a mental command.

The slumbering vine seemed to have instantly awoken the moment it sensed its masterʼs thoughts, as it dove directly into the pile of middle-grade spirit stones in front of it and began to ʼchewʼ them directly, absorbing their aura and turning it into vast amounts of pure spiritual qi that quickly filled the Shun estate.

As the thick spiritual qi began to permeate every nook and cranny of the Shun estate, Shun Long waved his sleeve once more, taking out a few bottles filled with dozens of alchemy pills, as well as a large jar of wine.

As the intoxicating fragrance of the wine filled the courtyard, Shun Long smiled and looked at Shun Fang before he continued

ʼʼFather, as long as you can down a single cup of this wine, you can break through to the Earth grade directly!ʼʼ
