Becoming an Immortal and Ancestor, Starting from the Clan-protecting Divine Beast

15: Chapter 15 Bronze Fragments, Myriad Transformations Sacred Technique”Oh?” Yuan Feng stroked his chin, his eyes flickering. After a moment of contemplation, he said, ”We are the only two who know that the two Li brothers are dead. That person definitely doesn’t know the specific situation.”

”Judging by his appearance, he was clearly going for some special item that was very important to him, so much so that he was willing to exterminate a small Family without hesitation.”

He reached out and took the map made of several bronze fragments. The patterns outlined on it were extremely ancient and profound, with strokes like iron and silver hooks, revealing a majestic and savage Aura.

”Very ancient stuff. Old Chen, you’re likely right; this thing was brought out from some ancient ruin.” Yuan Feng looked at the bronze fragments thoughtfully, his tone tinged with a hint of worry, ”If someone with ulterior motives finds out that part of the bronze fragments is in our hands, it might bring disaster upon us.”

He was no longer a novice in the Cultivation World. Over the past month or so, he had crammed a lot of common sense and basic knowledge about cultivation, which had greatly broadened his horizons.

Immortal Caves are generally left behind by ancient Cultivators after they pass away. They contain the personal Legacy of that ancient Cultivator, much like opening a blind box—sometimes you get a lot, and sometimes there’s nothing at all, just a skeleton.

Ancient ruins, however, are different. They are basically sites left behind after ancient factions were wiped out, containing all sorts of treasures and Secret Manuals, far more than an Immortal Cave.

Unless it is an Immortal Cave left behind by a powerful Cultivator, it absolutely cannot compare to an ancient ruin. How can individual accumulation compare to that of a Sect or a great Family?

Therefore, for the current Chen Family, these bronze fragments are a hot potato; holding them in hand burns, but tossing them away is not easy either.

”Brother Yuan, wealth is sought in danger. Let’s keep these bronze fragments. It won’t be too late to explore them after the Family has Cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage, or even a Purple Mansion True Person.” Chen Fufeng gritted his teeth and voiced his inner thoughts.

Yuan Feng nodded slightly and patted his shoulder, saying, ”That works, Old Chen. We’ve had a bumper harvest tonight. Once the Family absorbs these resources, it will definitely grow significantly. Perhaps you can even use this to achieve a Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment and become the fourth giant of Liming Town.”

There was one thing he didn’t say: the growth of the Chen Family meant an influx of clan destiny points, allowing his Bloodline to evolve again. For Yuan Feng, Foundation Establishment was no longer a difficult task.

As long as the Chen Family gradually grows stronger, it won’t just be Foundation Establishment; even the Purple Mansion or Golden Core True Monarch Realms could be achieved.

As for Divine Abilities, Spells, and talents, he wasn’t considering upgrading them for the time being. Currently, he was prioritizing his Bloodline. It wouldn’t be too late to upgrade them when he had spare clan destiny points.

The stronger his Bloodline, the stronger his Foundation and potential. Moreover, every Bloodline Breakthrough could awaken new Spells or even talents and Divine Abilities, which was far better than upgrading talents and Divine Abilities individually.

”Then I’ll take your word for it, Brother Yuan.” Chen Fufeng said with a smile.

Afterward, he put away the bronze fragments and continued to check the Storage Ring, focusing on the pile of ancient books.

”Hmm, what’s this?”

With a thought, a tattered ancient book appeared in Chen Fufeng’s hand. The cover seemed to be made of some kind of Yao Beast skin, and touching it felt like it was neither gold nor jade.

On the cover of the ancient book were written four flourishing, dragon-like characters. They exuded a very ancient Aura and were likely ancient characters from an extremely early era, yet Yuan Feng and Chen Fufeng understood their meaning the moment they saw them.

Myriad Transformations Sacred Method!

The man and the ape looked at each other, both seeing surprise in the other’s eyes. This was likely an extraordinary item.

Immediately, Chen Fufeng opened the ancient book in his hand and began to read it together with Yuan Feng.

”Extraordinary, truly extraordinary. This is likely a supreme Secret Technique created by an ancient Human Race powerhouse, a supreme Dou Zhan Secret Technique that can manifest various things to use against enemies.”

”This is an ultimate offensive Secret Technique. The deeper one understands it, the more Dou Zhan Spells one masters—endless and ever-changing!”

”That middle-aged man must have been practicing this Myriad Transformation Sacred Art. The bronze ancient war chariot he manifested was a form of offensive technique he realized from the Myriad Transformation Sacred Art. It is truly incredible.”

The man and the ape were amazed. The person who created this Secret Technique could be said to have shocked the heavens and made the earth weep; calling them a peerless genius would be an understatement.

The offensive techniques derived from this Myriad Transformations Sacred Method varied in power depending on each person’s experience.

For instance, if a Cultivator who had witnessed the stars and the sea were to use it, a single strike could bring down a starry sky, with large stars rotating and pressing down across the heavens—the momentum would be incomparable, and who could stop it!

Of course, all of this was derived based on the Cultivator’s own magical power; it was not a real starry sky or real stars.

However, once a Cultivator reaches a certain height, turning the void into reality is not impossible. At that time, it would truly be heaven-destroying and earth-shattering, capable of reversing the Yin and Yang of the heavens.

”Old Chen, it seems I can also practice this Myriad Transformations Sacred Method.” Yuan Feng said.

For some reason, he just felt in his heart that he could indeed practice this Secret Technique without any obstacles.

Chen Fufeng stroked his chin and pondered, ”The Myriad Transformations Sacred Method was written by an ancient powerhouse. Beings of that Realm have long understood the ultimate principles of heaven and earth. The techniques they created are no longer bound by form. As long as a living being has cultivation, they should be able to practice it.”

Yuan Feng nodded; that made sense.

A Secret Technique is different from a Cultivation Technique or Spell; it is a very special kind of secret method that can be practiced at any Realm. Depending on individual comprehension, the power it exerts varies.

If understood deeply, the power exerted by a Secret Technique is no less than a Divine Ability, capable of moving mountains and filling seas.

One must know that Divine Abilities can only be practiced by Purple Mansion True Persons. Even a sixth-grade Spell can hardly compare to them. Every Divine Ability is immensely powerful and evolves as one’s Realm increases.

If one reaches the Golden Core True Monarch Realm, a single Divine Ability strike could likely cause the vast Liyuan Plains to sink and turn into ruins.

The practice of this Myriad Transformations Sacred Method requires opening an aperture in the body, known as the Myriad Transformations Sacred Aperture.

Through this Myriad Transformations Sacred Aperture, one can convert one’s own spiritual power and magical power into spiritual power and magical power of other attributes, thereby achieving ever-changing effects.

The fundamental theoretical basis for all this is the opening chapter of the Myriad Transformations Sacred Method, which is also the Foundation upon which that powerhouse created this Secret Technique.

Whether it is the Human Race or other races, one’s own body can be seen as a small world, which should be able to utilize spiritual power and magical power of all attributes, converting them into one another, rather than being limited to a single attribute.

However, in today’s Cultivation World, the Cultivation Techniques practiced by Cultivators are basically single-attribute techniques. To switch to other attributes, one would have to abandon their Foundation and start over, which is extremely difficult.

Back to the point!

After the man and the ape studied the Myriad Transformation Sacred Art for quite a while, they decided to return to Luoyun Mountain before practicing, as this place was not suitable for a long stay.

Afterward, Chen Fufeng counted the items in the Storage Ring again. Besides the Myriad Transformation Sacred Art, there was also a fourth-grade metal-attribute Cultivation Technique called 《Golden Firmament Jade Dew Art》, as well as a fourth-grade Spell called 《Gold Qi Weaponization Strategy》.

These were precisely the Legacy Cultivation Techniques and Spells of the Li Family, all of which had been pocketed by the middle-aged man, and now they were Chen Fufeng’s gain.

As for the Cultivation Technique that the middle-aged man himself practiced, it was not to be seen; he did not carry it with him, which made Chen Fufeng feel a bit regretful.

Judging by the power of the middle-aged man’s attacks, the Cultivation Technique he practiced was definitely of a High Grade, at least fourth-grade.

Speaking of the middle-aged man, Chen Fufeng remembered something and slapped his forehead: ”Brother Yuan, that person’s bronze magical mirror was a first-grade top-grade Magical Artifact. Did we forget to take it?”

As he spoke, he hung his head. That was a first-grade top-grade Magical Artifact, equivalent to Peak Qi Refining, and its price was several times more expensive than a first-grade High Grade Magical Artifact.

Yuan Feng smiled mysteriously and waved his hand, and a gray-green bronze mirror appeared in his hand. The mirror surface was smooth and clean, and the overall look was ancient. It was precisely the middle-aged man’s first-grade top-grade Magical Artifact.

”Don’t worry, when we were running away, I put this Magical Artifact and the Magical Artifacts of that Cultivator couple into the Storage Pouch and took them all with me.”

After saying this, he tossed the gray-green bronze mirror to Chen Fufeng, leaving the latter feeling somewhat pleasantly surprised.

As a Yao Beast, and one skilled in close-quarters combat, the bronze magical mirror was not of much use to him; it was far less useful than a piece of Magical Artifact armor.

Chen Fufeng picked up the bronze Magical Artifact and examined it carefully, as if looking at a treasure, rubbing the patterns on it.

”Brother Yuan, this seems to be an ancient Magical Artifact. There should be a Restriction set inside that will gradually unlock as the holder’s Realm increases, until it reaches its complete form.”

Ancient Magical Artifacts generally refer to Magical Artifacts unearthed from Immortal Caves or ancient ruins. Most of them have Restrictions placed on them, and only after reaching a certain level of Realm can these Restrictions be unlocked to exert the true power of the ancient Magical Artifact.

Like the crimson flame sword he obtained from the ancient Cultivator’s Immortal Cave, it was an ancient Magical Artifact. That ancient Cultivator had placed several Restrictions on it before dying, causing its grade to drop to first-grade High Grade.

”I see. It seems this mirror is of great value.” Yuan Feng said, feeling somewhat happy.

The gains from this trip to the Li Family exceeded his expectations; the Spirit Stones alone were enough for the Chen Family to digest for quite a while.

Not to mention the many Medicinal Pills and Talismanic Incantations, which were enough to raise the Realms of several Chen Family Cultivators.

Coupled with several Cultivation Techniques and Magical Artifacts, in terms of Foundation, the Chen Family was likely richer than any Peak Qi Refining power in Liming Town.

”Brother Yuan, this decision to cut the weeds and eliminate the roots, finishing off the Li Family, is probably the second best decision Fufeng has ever made in his life.” Chen Fufeng said solemnly.

”And the first?”

Chen Fufeng looked at Yuan Feng, his tone sincere and earnest: ”Naturally, it was meeting Brother Yuan and having Brother Yuan become the Clan-Guarding Spirit Beast of the Chen Family.”

He said this from the bottom of his heart. Ever since he signed the contract with Yuan Feng, he felt that everything he did went smoothly, and various Opportunities came one after another, which made him both happy and worried.

There is a saying: there are no free lunches in the world; many gifts are often already marked with a price.

Yuan Feng heard this, nodded, and said unceremoniously, ”That is natural. Consider that you, Old Chen, didn’t misjudge. With me here, it’s hard for the Chen Family not to take off.”

Then, the man and the ape laughed heartily, their laughter powerful, startling a flock of birds into flight.
