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

85: Chapter 85 The Great Array to Overthrow the Nation, Attacking the Qian FamilyJust as Immortal Master Jieyang was shocked by his own guess, Yuan Feng’s gaze fell upon the purple-gold scroll taken out by Immortal Master Shaking Heavens, his tone unreadable: ”It seems the Immortal Master has some incredible things to say to this King. Are you afraid of being overheard by others?”

The moment the purple-gold scroll was opened, he clearly felt a spatial fluctuation that cut off the space where the two were located and set up a Restriction to isolate the inside from the outside.

Such methods were definitely not achievable by a Purple Mansion True Person; only a True Monarch at the Golden Core level could divide the Void Realm and create their own domain.

”Fellow Daoist Dou Zhan, please forgive me. The matter we are about to discuss involves very high-level secrets, which is why Shaking Heavens had to resort to this strategy.” Immortal Master Shaking Heavens said this, putting away the purple-gold scroll.

”Oh?” Yuan Feng raised an eyebrow and asked: ”What kind of major event? Could it be related to the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion’s establishment of its Sect?”

The Great Qi Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion had done so many things and placed so many chess pieces, all with the goal of establishing its own Sect, even going so far as to cooperate with the Great Qi Imperial Family to destroy the Xuan Yuan Sect together.

This was the only major event he could think of that involved existences at the level of Golden Core True Monarchs or even Nascent Soul Venerables.

As for the ruins of the Jade Blood Heavenly Sect, they were not within his consideration; if they had truly cared about the ruins left behind by this Dao Lord Sect, the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion would have acted long ago.

”Correct.” Immortal Master Shaking Heavens smiled, raised his hand to take out a scroll, suspended it in mid-air, and unfurled it.

Yuan Feng looked closely, his pitch-black pupils spinning, and he stroked his chin, saying: ”This is a map of the Great Qi territory? Why are you showing me this?”

Immortal Master Shaking Heavens remained silent, pointing at the scroll suspended in the air to signal Yuan Feng to look again.

Golden patterns permeated Yuan Feng’s eyes, appearing like two rotating black suns glowing with golden light. His Illuminating Demon Eye was fully activated, significantly enhancing his analytical capabilities.

After activating his innate talent, the image presented by the scroll was constantly changing. He saw dense red dots arranged in a very peculiar pattern, with the capital of Great Qi at the center.

Viewed as a whole, it looked like a soaring True Dragon, majestic and dignified.

”This is a... Formation that involves the entire Great Qi Cultivation Nation?!”

A monstrous storm surged in Yuan Feng’s heart. Could this be the plot of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion?

Gathering the Luck of an entire nation, confusing the heavenly secrets, and stirring up the winds and clouds of the world.

One must know that Liyuan Commandery alone spanned hundreds of thousands of miles, and the Xuan Prefecture territory where Liyuan Commandery was located extended nearly ten million miles, with countless living beings.

One could imagine how vast the territory of this Great Qi Cultivation Nation was, with countless experts hidden on this land, endless ruins and Immortal Caves located here, and a vast ocean of Immortal Cultivators.

”Fellow Daoist Dou Zhan is not mistaken. This is a Formation wide enough to cover the entire Great Qi Cultivation Nation.” Immortal Master Shaking Heavens seemed very satisfied with Yuan Feng’s reaction and continued:

”This Formation uses every Commandery city within Great Qi as a secondary Formation base, the Prefecture city as the main Formation base, and the capital as the hub. Once activated, it can gather the Great Qi national Luck, manifest a Luck True Dragon, and shake the four poles of heaven and earth.”

Yuan Feng’s thoughts turned. With his Breakthrough to the Purple Mansion and his greatly increased strength, he could know more things, but that was not necessarily a good thing.

The more one knows, the more danger one faces, and the faster one dies.

Just like now, Immortal Master Shaking Heavens had directly revealed a shocking secret. He couldn’t help but want to know; he had already seen it and heard it, and was already in the game.

Perhaps, from the moment he displayed the power of the Purple Mansion Realm, he had already transformed from an insignificant chess piece into a somewhat weighty one.

But he was still not a chess player, lacking the ability to control the game or even overturn it.

”Damn it, existences at the Purple Mansion level also have their own troubles.” Yuan Feng sighed inwardly.

The only plan now was to take it one step at a time, scrape together as many benefits as possible, and cultivate a few more Divine Abilities.

”Fellow Daoist Shaking Heavens, stop holding back. If you have anything to say, just say it directly.” Yuan Feng looked straight at Immortal Master Shaking Heavens, not intending to waste time with him; he still had to go destroy the Qian Family.

Upon hearing this, Immortal Master Shaking Heavens’ expression became serious, and his tone was solemn: ”Fellow Daoist Dou Zhan, to tell you the truth, the Chen Family plays an important role in this game of chess.

First the Divine Thunder, then the Ding Fire—both have fallen into the Chen Family’s hands. It is impossible to extricate yourselves; this is a huge Karma that must be repaid.

As the Old Ancestor protecting the Chen Family, the burden on your shoulders is heavy, and the enemies you must face cannot be underestimated.

It is not just the Xuan Yuan Sect; other hostile forces will also take action against the Chen Family. You must be extremely careful.”

Yuan Feng nodded slightly: ”Mhm, and then?”

”Ah?” Immortal Master Shaking Heavens was stunned, unable to help but retort: ”Fellow Daoist, this humble Daoist is talking to you seriously, and you just say ’mhm’ and that’s it?”

Yuan Feng spread his hands: ”What else? Should I show a look of despair, be terrified, and then beg for the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion’s help?”

”Ahem.” Immortal Master Shaking Heavens coughed twice, waved his hand and said: ”Fellow Daoist Dou Zhan is joking.”

He felt a bit ashamed; he had originally intended to give Yuan Feng a warning and then offer some benefits.

But Yuan Feng’s attitude left him unable to start, and coupled with his strong strength, he felt a headache and couldn’t make up his mind.

After a moment, this Purple Mansion True Person of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion said sternly: ”Fellow Daoist Dou Zhan, now that you have broken through to the Purple Mansion and killed a Purple Mansion True Person, you have caught the eyes of the various Lords, which is a good thing.

Several Lords in the Pavilion are optimistic about the Chen Family and are willing to place bets on the Chen Family. This is a tremendous Opportunity.”

”Oh?” Yuan Feng was surprised. Those who could be called Lords by a Purple Mansion True Person were at least Golden Core True Monarchs.

In other words, several Golden Core level or even higher big shots in the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion were paying attention to the Chen Family, as well as to him, this Purple Mansion Demon King who had emerged from some unknown corner.

”The Divine Thunder refers to Zhu Xiao, the Ding Fire certainly cannot be Old Chen, so it must be Zhu Hong.”

Yuan Feng was thoughtful. It seemed that during the time he was in seclusion, the Chen Family had undergone significant changes, and the so-called Ding Fire had also fallen to the Chen Family.

”The more you take, the more you have to repay.”

With a light sigh, he stopped thinking about it and asked: ”Fellow Daoist Shaking Heavens, do those Lords have any offerings? For example, giving a few third-grade Spiritual Veins, one or two million High-Grade Spirit Stones, Purple Mansion or Golden Core level Cultivation Techniques or Divine Abilities, fifth or sixth-grade Spells...”

”Stop, stop, stop!” Immortal Master Shaking Heavens hurriedly interrupted, saying: ”What should belong to the Chen Family will naturally reach the Chen Family when the time is right. All of this is a matter of predestined fate.”

As he spoke, he took out a Storage Ring and threw it to Yuan Feng: ”Inside is the cultivation resource given to the Chen Family by the Great Qi Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, and it is also to congratulate Fellow Daoist Dou Zhan on your Breakthrough to the Purple Mansion.”

Yuan Feng took the Storage Ring, scanned it with his Divine Thought, and silently put it away. Inside were mountains of resources, enough for the Chen Family to digest for quite a while.

Whether it could cultivate a Purple Mansion True Person was uncertain, but at the very least, it could cultivate a bunch of Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators, greatly enhancing the Chen Family’s foundation.

”Fellow Daoist Dou Zhan, Shaking Heavens has said what needs to be said. It is time to get down to business.” Immortal Master Shaking Heavens waved his hand, and the two separated from this independent space, reappearing above Liyuan Commandery.

Upon hearing this, scorching light shot from Yuan Feng’s eyes, incomparably sharp. His entire Aura suddenly changed, and the pressure of his Purple Mansion level Qi caused the sky to shake, making the Cultivators below feel suffocated, as if thousands of mountains were pressing down on their hearts.

”Yes, it is time to get down to business.”

As he spoke, he took a few steps, traversing the Void Realm, and appeared near the Qian Family in just a few breaths.

”Does Fellow Daoist Shaking Heavens know where the Qian Family Old Ancestor has gone?”

Immortal Master Shaking Heavens pointed to the sky: ”That old thing took a pseudo-magic treasure given by the Xuan Yuan Sect and is currently fighting with Great True Person Lone Boat.”

”A pseudo-magic treasure?” Yuan Feng’s heart stirred. He did not expect the Xuan Yuan Sect to actually hand over such a thing to the Qian Family Old Ancestor.

A pseudo-magic treasure, as the name suggests, is a forged Magic Treasure, with a heaven-and-earth difference from a real Golden Core Magic Treasure.

The foundation of a real Magic Treasure is one or even multiple Golden Core Golden Natures, while the foundation of a pseudo-magic treasure is the pseudo-Golden Nature condensed by a Purple Mansion Cultivator who failed to break through to the Golden Core. It has some of the profundity of Golden Nature, half a level higher than the Purple Mansion, but half a level lower than a real Golden Core.

Because of the profundity of Golden Nature, there is also the concept of the False Core level in this world. By consuming Golden Core Golden Nature, one can forcibly condense an imperfect Golden Core and thus transcend the Purple Mansion to achieve the False Core.

Although it is fake, it also possesses strength far exceeding the Purple Mansion level. Even a Great True Person with Five Methods at Perfection would only have the path of defeat when facing a False Core Cultivator.

Under the Golden Nature, Divine Abilities will also decay and be defeated.

”After this matter is settled, I can bring back a few books involving profound cultivation paths from the Liyuan Commandery Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion to read, to broaden my horizons and increase my knowledge.”

Yuan Feng thought, took a step, and covered the sky. The Void Realm above the Qian Family shattered like a broken rag, and the incomparable power impacted in all directions; the prestige of the Demon King was boundless.

”It’s that Purple Mansion Demon King, he has attacked the Qian Family!” A Cultivator shouted in shock.

One by one, Cultivators stopped in the distance, looking toward where the Qian Family was located.

Being curious and watching the drama—this is something all creatures do.

The Qian Family’s family-protecting Formation was fully activated, manifesting streaks of thousand-foot-long fire snakes that rolled toward the high sky, intending to block Yuan Feng.

Boom!

The heaven and earth shook. A giant foot tore through the Void Realm, as huge as a mountain, and landed fiercely on the Qian Family’s family-protecting Formation, bursting out ten thousand rays of light.

Such a domineering and powerful scene made the hearts of the Cultivators ripple and their blood boil; some bloodthirsty Cultivators couldn’t even help but shout out.

”Powerful! This is what our generation of Cultivators seeks—to act on impulse and seek revenge. Where is this ’a gentleman takes revenge ten years later’? If you have a grudge, take revenge on the same day!”

Black yao power surged around Yuan Feng. He took another step, the sky rumbled and vibrated, and the space below shattered instantly, with peerless power.

The Qian Family members were pale, only able to pray that their family-protecting Formation could hold out until the Old Ancestor returned.

Yuan Feng ignored the sweeping Ding Fire. His whole body was filled with ten thousand feet of golden light, and his scorching, rainbow-like blood energy shot straight into the clouds, breaking apart the sea of clouds for a thousand miles.

He slapped a palm toward the Formation below. The black giant hand was much larger than a house, and black stars rotated between his palms and fingers, like a hand of destruction descending from outside the Realm, covering the sky with one hand!

Bang!

The big hand pressed down, causing the Qian Family’s family-protecting Formation to shake incessantly, and the manifested dim yellow Ding Fire was almost extinguished.

Yuan Feng continued to attack. Two palms were like two firmaments falling, and the scorching black light covered the sky, plunging this world into deadly darkness.

The next moment, the sky collapsed and the earth cracked. The Qian Family’s family-protecting Formation could no longer hold on, and cracks appeared. The aftermath passed through the cracks, collapsing countless buildings and killing one Qian Family Cultivator after another.

Killing intent shot from Yuan Feng’s eyes. He pinched a fist seal and executed the Through-Arm Mountain Shattering Fist, like a black dragon emerging from an ancient abyss, shattering the Void Realm and completely breaking the Qian Family’s family-protecting Formation.

”Qian Family, you shall be destroyed today!”
