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

89: Chapter 89 The Secret of Supernatural PowersChen Zhuxiao transformed into a bolt of lightning, moving wantonly across the firmament. Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining are two vastly different Realms, especially the changes in mana, which cause the power of Spells to explode, making it easy to cut off rivers and block flows.

A moment later, he descended from the sky, his body still crackling with heart-stopping residual electric snakes. His eyes were bright, the two pupils resembling spheres condensed from thunder, making others afraid to look directly at him.

Within his body, where his immortal foundation resided, a three-foot-wide thunder pool floated. Inside, azure lightning fluid flowed, and the lightning bolts striking around it danced like dragons and snakes, resembling the Heavenly Punishment Thunder Pool hidden above the Nine Heavens in legends, its power reaching the extreme.

This was the sixth-grade Divine Thunder immortal foundation he had forged: Clearing the Nine Heavens!

This immortal foundation took the extreme of Divine Thunder’s offensive capabilities, its form and appearance corresponding to the legendary Heavenly Thunder Pool. When fighting against others, it could display a portion of the majestic Heavenly Might to suppress opponents.

This was the formidable nature of the Thunder Dao; it suppressed all Daos. Even if the Four Symbols were before it, it dared to pass judgment; the Sun and Moon were not to be feared, and the same went for Lesser Yin and Lesser Yang.

”Zhu Xiao, congratulations on your Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment.”

Chen Fufeng’s voice rang out. He walked over, a look of gratification on his Face.

Now that his second son had reached Foundation Establishment, the burden on him, the Chen Family Head, could be lightened a bit.

”Father, I have not failed your expectations.” Chen Zhuxiao cupped his hands in a salute, his spine straight, his gaze clear and sharp like a drawn sword, exposing its edge, the sword light sweeping across the world.

Chen Fufeng sensed the Aura coming from Chen Zhuxiao and compared it, feeling secretly shocked in his heart. He couldn’t help but sigh: ”As expected of someone chosen by the Divine Thunder. Just after the Breakthrough, he already possesses such a powerful Aura; I fear he could directly fight and kill a Cultivator at the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment.”

However, he thought to himself, feeling proud: ”No matter how much of a Genius he is, he is still my, Chen Fufeng’s, son. Saying it out loud, I still have Face; it’s not embarrassing!”

A father need not be inferior to his son, and a son need not be wiser than his father.

”By the way, Father, I observed that Luoyun Mountain has changed a lot, becoming taller and wider, and the density of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi has increased significantly. Could it be that it has advanced? Did Uncle Yuan have a Breakthrough?” Chen Zhuxiao asked.

When he had his Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment, he was protected by the vast thunder, so the courtyard he was in was not affected, nor did he receive any impact; he was completely unaware of what had happened in the outside world.

But after his Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment, his vision and sensing abilities had greatly improved, making him particularly sensitive to the changes in his own Luoyun Mountain. Combined with the terrifying Aura coming from the Back Mountain Cliff, it increased his suspicions.

Only if Yuan Feng had a Breakthrough could it cause such a huge change in Luoyun Mountain; his own father certainly did not have this ability.

Chen Fufeng patted his second son’s shoulder and said: ”A few days ago, the Tang Family from Liyuan Commandery, along with the Li Family and people from the Xuan Yuan Sect, attacked Luoyun Mountain together. Fortunately, your father managed to upgrade the Mountain-Protecting Formation in time, and with proper control, we were able to drag it out until your Uncle Yuan successfully exited seclusion.”

”Zhu Xiao, you didn’t see your Uncle Yuan’s heroism. Tsk tsk, he directly beat a Purple Mansion True Person to death and personally killed his way to the Qian Family’s residence in the commandery city, wiping out the Qian Family, this great Purple Mansion clan.”

”Now, our Liyuan Chen Family—no, it should be the Liyuan Chen Clan—is already a great Purple Mansion clan. Our status is even higher than those of the Zhou Family and Zhao Family. Their Purple Mansion Old Ancestor cannot beat your Uncle Yuan.”

What happened in Liyuan Commandery city spread throughout the entire Liyuan Commandery that very day. As time passed, in just a few days, the major forces in the nearby commanderies had all heard of it.

Liyuan Commandery had produced a Purple Mansion Demon King with extraordinary strength, who beat a newly promoted Purple Mansion to death with three strikes. He was definitely a powerful existence and not to be trifled with.

”Ah??” Chen Zhuxiao’s mind was a bit confused, and it took a while for him to sort out his thoughts.

”How long has Uncle Yuan been in seclusion that he has already engraved the Divine Ability and reached the Purple Mansion?”

He was truly shocked. Even the most Genius Cultivator would be stuck for a long time when breaking through to the Purple Mansion.

Because Human Race Cultivators are not like Spirit Beasts that can awaken natural Divine Abilities; they need to engrave the Divine Ability Dao patterns step by step, carefully, to avoid any mistakes; it cannot be rushed.

Of course, there are other ways to speed up the engraving of Divine Ability Dao patterns, such as refining Divine Ability seeds of matching attributes, or consuming blood energy methods, through eating things that can evolve into corresponding Divine Ability Dao patterns to Cultivate the Divine Ability.

The first method allows the cultivated Divine Ability to be harmonious and perfect with oneself, and it can be perfectly engraved.

The second method is inferior; the Divine Ability cultivated in this way will be slightly incompatible with one’s own Dao path, and the power exerted will be less.

That said, while the Divine Ability seed method can solve the problem of the Divine Ability not being cultivated by oneself, every Divine Ability seed is extracted from a Purple Mansion True Person, and only a Purple Mansion True Person who has cultivated a Divine Ability is qualified to extract a Divine Ability seed.

No matter which method, it requires a lot of time to prepare, and there is even considerable risk.

Like the first method, it is relatively common within major forces. Before the older generation of Cultivators’ Lifespan is exhausted, they can refine the Divine Ability they have cultivated into a Divine Ability seed to benefit the younger generation.

”Your Uncle Yuan has a high-level Bloodline, though I don’t know why he ended up in the outskirts of the Tianli Mountain Range. The me from back then was truly lucky.” Chen Fufeng patted Chen Zhuxiao’s shoulder again and sighed.

Speaking of which, the fact that the Chen Family has today’s achievements and today’s prestige is all thanks to Yuan Feng.

Without Yuan Feng, there would be no Chen Family of today.

”Zhu Xiao, remember, your Uncle Yuan is the Foundation of our Chen Family. If I am not here, if you have anything you cannot decide, you must consult your Uncle Yuan and make decisions based on his intentions, do you understand?” Chen Fufeng’s expression was serious as he warned.

Chen Zhuxiao nodded and said solemnly: ”Father, rest assured, I understand everything and will not do anything that lets down the Chen Family or Uncle Yuan.”

As he said this, he asked: ”By the way, Father, since Uncle Yuan has reached the Purple Mansion, can he bring Big Brother out from that ruin in Liquan Town?”

Chen Zhuyun has been trapped in the Jade Blood Heavenly Sect ruins in Liquan Town for three or four years now, and no one knows what his situation is like now.

If it were just him alone, it would be fine, but the problem is that there is also a Ruan Zhirou trapped in the ruins with him. With these two alone, who knows, maybe they have already had several children by the time they come out.

”Cough, cough.” Chen Fufeng coughed twice and looked up at the sky. ”I went to ask Master Yurong, and she didn’t care too much about the matter between your Big Brother and Ruan Zhirou, saying directly that this is the Opportunity of the two of them. When the time comes, they will naturally come out of that ancient ruin.”

Hearing this, Chen Zhuxiao was thoughtful. After his Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment, he realized that this Master Yurong was not simple; it could only be described as unfathomable.

However, now that Yuan Feng has reached the Purple Mansion and possesses the power of Divine Ability, this Ruan Yurong should not be able to make any waves.

The father and son talked for a long time before parting ways to attend to their own business.

Chen Fufeng first went to the main house to communicate with Ji Wanqing for a while, then went to find Chen Zhuqing and Jiang Yunlei.

This young couple was sticking together every day, like glue. Chen Zhuxiao raised his eyebrows when he saw them, took out his authority as the second brother, and scolded them a few times, asking how it was decent to act like this in broad daylight, and so on.

Afterwards, he went to Chen Zhuyuan’s courtyard. This third son was discussing cultivation matters with Liu Luojun in the courtyard, occasionally talking about trivial matters, and they were getting along very well.

Seeing Chen Zhuxiao come in, the two hurriedly separated, their Faces flushed red, a scene that made the former unable to hold back a smile.

”Second Brother, have you had your Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment?” Chen Zhuyuan asked.

Chen Zhuxiao nodded slightly: ”I was lucky to have a Breakthrough.”

”By the way, I heard from Father that you used Medium Grade Spiritual Qi when you had your Breakthrough to Qi Refining?”

Chen Zhuyuan gave a wry smile: ”Second Brother, it is a matter of time and fate. I do not wish to walk the path of Kan Water and Gui Water, but would rather walk the path of Frost. This is my choice, and I will bear the consequences myself; naturally, I will not blame Father for not being able to find High Grade Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.”

Hearing this, Chen Zhuxiao patted his shoulder heavily, his tone firm: ”Now that I have had my Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment, I will bid farewell to Father in a few days and go down the mountain to travel, to temper my own state of mind. At that time, I will pay attention to Cultivation Techniques and spiritual objects related to the path of Frost.”

”Then I will thank Big Brother in advance.” Chen Zhuyuan cupped his hands.

Then, the three chatted for a while, and Chen Zhuxiao left.

He went to the next courtyard, where Chen Zhuhong was.

As soon as he stepped into the courtyard, the vast thunder lying in the immortal foundation thunder pool became active, as if it had encountered something interesting.

Chen Zhuxiao’s Aura was introverted, his edge not showing, but a sharp Aura was hidden and not released, ready to bloom with peerless sharpness at any time, erupting with unparalleled power.

”Second Brother.” The beautiful figure sitting cross-legged under the parasol tree opened her phoenix eyes, the Aura of the Fourth Layer of Qi Refining flashing and disappearing.

”Fourth Sister.” Chen Zhuxiao nodded and walked over.

”Is this the Vermilion Bird Burning Heaven Canon, the Sixth-grade Cultivation Method that Father mentioned? It really is extraordinary.”

Chen Zhuhong had a striking spot of crimson between her eyebrows, and her delicate Face carried an inexplicable smile: ”Second Brother’s Cultivation Technique is probably not as simple as just Fifth-grade, right? The Divine Thunder is majestic, the momentum is formidable, sweeping and extinguishing the Nine Heavens; I fear you have cultivated the strongest sixth-grade Divine Thunder immortal foundation, Clearing the Nine Heavens.”

Chen Zhuxiao was astonished inside; this younger sister was someone he couldn’t quite see through. Although she was young, her mind was mature, no less than an adult.

”It seems that Fourth Sister also has her own Opportunity. Even the immortal foundation I cultivated can be seen; that is remarkable.” He sighed.

Chen Zhuhong shook her head and said: ”Second Brother, the momentum of the Clearing the Nine Heavens immortal foundation is too strong, and you have just had your Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment. That Aura of sweeping and extinguishing the Nine Heavens and clearing the universe is very obvious. Anyone who has read the Encyclopedia of immortal foundations and is relatively familiar with Divine Thunder immortal foundations could guess it.”

”Cough, cough.” Chen Zhuxiao coughed twice and looked up at the sky. ”I heard from Father that there is no need to escort you to the Zhiyang Sect? Will that Burning Absolute True Monarch personally accept you as a disciple when he exits seclusion?”

Chen Zhuhong nodded slightly, her voice pleasant: ”Is Second Brother envious of this?”

”My own Opportunity is a blessing that ordinary Cultivators couldn’t Cultivate even after a hundred lifetimes, so how could I be envious of you?”

Chen Zhuxiao shook his head and smiled, thunder light dancing in his eyes, and said: ”I am afraid that you will be bullied after going to the Zhiyang Sect. Even if you are accepted as a Personal Disciple by the Burning Absolute True Monarch, that is, after all, a high-level Sect, and the internal relationships are complex. The Burning Absolute True Monarch alone cannot decide everything.”

”Moreover, in a Sect, the most important thing is future potential. If you don’t fight, you won’t get the corresponding resources.”

Chen Zhuhong slowly stood up, her eyes flashing with golden light, holy and noble: ”Second Brother, your worry is unnecessary. It should be your sister who bullies others.”

After saying this, she turned and returned to the room, making Chen Zhuxiao feel a bit ashamed.

”That is good.”

Afterwards, Chen Zhuxiao left this courtyard and headed straight for the Back Mountain Cliff.
