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

122: Chapter 122 The Journey to the Plains, The Rise of a StormThis should be the first time Chen Zhuyun has set foot in Liyuan Plains in his life.

Before this, the farthest place he had been was Liquan Town, and he had been trapped in the ruins there for over a decade.

Even after so many years, Liyuan Plains remained the same; the fire-red Liyuan grass rustled in the breeze, looking like a rippling sea of fire at a glance.

”Ah Yun, Liyuan Commandery is crowded with all sorts of people, and various factions are mixed together. Do you really want to teach martial arts there?” Ruan Zhirou’s eyes flashed with worry.

A path different from the Immortal Dao, with a very low threshold; it does not require a Spiritual Root, as long as one’s bone structure is decent, one can cultivate.

Even if one’s bone structure is average, one can still cultivate, though the speed will be much slower, which is still better than not being able to cultivate at all.

Once one can cultivate, it means possessing the qualifications to transcend the ordinary, far stronger than an average Mortal.

This undoubtedly has a huge impact on the Immortal Dao, after all, those without a Spiritual Root make up the majority of the world.

In the past, martial arts could only reach the Innate Peak, equivalent to Peak Qi Refining, which meant nothing in the eyes of Cultivators.

Now, martial arts have opened up the Gangsha Realm, which can be comparable to a Foundation Establishment Peak Great Cultivator at its highest, a leap as vast as heaven and earth.

In the vast Liyuan Plains, apart from a few Purple Mansion Factions, the rest are all Foundation Establishment Factions.

If martial arts rise in Liyuan Commandery and Gangsha Martial Artists emerge in large numbers, it will inevitably have a huge impact on the power structure of Liyuan Commandery, which is not something these Immortal Dao factions would be happy to see.

This is the source of Ruan Zhirou’s worry.

”Rou’er, every beginning is hard. As long as we can establish martial arts in Liyuan Commandery, we can use Liyuan Commandery as a base to spread throughout the entire Xuan Prefecture.”

Chen Zhuyun’s eyes were spirited, his physique robust, and blood energy, vast as rivers and lakes, surged within his body. A feeling called confidence permeated his words.

”Then why not choose Luoyun City?” Ruan Zhirou was a bit puzzled. She supported Chen Zhuyun unconditionally, but still asked the question in her heart.

”In terms of scale, Luoyun City is not much different from Liyuan Commandery, and it is the home base of the Chen family. The difficulties encountered when teaching and establishing martial arts here would be much less.”

”Moreover, there are several Purple Mansion True Persons in Luoyun City, and on Luoyun Mountain, there are also the two Great Masters, Feng Cong and Heaven Forger; even if a Purple Mansion True Person attacks, there is nothing to fear.”

”But once we go to Liyuan Commandery, we will be isolated and helpless. Coupled with the special nature of martial arts, it will inevitably lead to collisions with factions within Liyuan Commandery, and it might even draw out a Purple Mansion True Person.”

A Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator is nothing to Chen Zhuyun; even if an Immortal Sect Dao Child came down the mountain to fight him, he would have the confidence to defeat the opponent.

But a Purple Mansion True Person is different; this is a Divine Ability wielder who stands above a Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator, and only an existence of the same level can cope with them.

Even if Chen Zhuyun is invincible at the Foundation Establishment level, he would definitely not be a match for a Purple Mansion True Person.

”Rou’er, you forgot, I opened up the Gangsha Realm within the ruins of the Jade Blood Heavenly Sect.”

Chen Zhuyun’s eyes were deep, his robes fluttering without wind, his tone mysterious.

”Without the guidance of that Senior, I would not be who I am today. It can be said that the successful opening of the Gangsha Realm is inseparable from that Senior.”

”The current martial arts may already be linked to the Jade Blood Heavenly Sect; to be precise, it is related to the Blood Qi Path, and even involves... the Jade Blood Dao Lord.”

Ruan Zhirou pursed her red lips, wanting to say something, but couldn’t.

Chen Xianlin and his sister obtained the techniques of the Jade Blood Heavenly Sect, which is already linked to this Dao Lord Heavenly Sect.

No, perhaps from the moment they entered the Jade Blood Heavenly Sect, they had an inseparable connection with this Sect.

”Time and fate. Even if there are mountains of blades and seas of fire ahead, I will accompany you to face them.” Ruan Zhirou held Chen Zhuyun’s arm and said softly.

Chen Zhuyun’s gaze was firm. With the backing of the Jade Blood Heavenly Sect, he could achieve much.

When the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up; he just needs to go and do it!

Three days later.

Chen Zhuyun and his wife walked and stopped along the way, sometimes killing Robber Cultivators who didn’t know any better, and sometimes stopping to admire the scenery of Liyuan Plains.

Ahead, a majestic giant city lay on the Liyuan Plains. There were many Cultivators coming in and out, looking much more prosperous than Luoyun City.

”Is this Liyuan Commandery?”

Chen Zhuyun looked at the giant city in front of him with curiosity, comparing it with his own Luoyun City; there was still some gap.

”Perhaps in another twenty or thirty years, the scale of Luoyun City will exceed Liyuan Commandery and become the most prosperous city in the borderlands of the eastern Xuan Prefecture.”

Ruan Zhirou had never been to Liyuan Commandery either. Her beautiful eyes scanned the surroundings, and then she looked at the rainbow light flying above, her willow eyebrows raised: ”I heard that Cultivators below the Late Foundation Establishment Stage are not allowed to fly in Liyuan Commandery. In the future, the no-fly rule in Luoyun City can be raised.”

Currently, Luoyun City prohibits Cultivators below the Foundation Establishment Stage from flying; only Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators have the qualifications to fly over Luoyun City.

As Luoyun City grows, this rule should indeed be adjusted appropriately.

It is rumored that in the Great Qi capital, ordinary Purple Mansion True Persons do not have the qualifications to fly; only the Violet Palace Peak Great True Persons with the Five Dharma Manifestations can fly within the city.

”Then how are we going to enter the city?”

Chen Zhuyun looked at the beauty beside him.

The latter pursed her lips and smiled: ”Of course... by flying in.”

As she spoke, Ruan Zhirou pulled Chen Zhuyun, her Foundation Establishment Peak aura radiating, turning into an ethereal rainbow light, flying straight into Liyuan Commandery.

Her Luck is already inseparable from Chen Zhuyun’s, intertwined with each other; whatever height Chen Zhuyun can reach, Luck can lift her to that same height.

If Chen Zhuyun opens up a martial arts Realm comparable to the Immortal Dao Purple Mansion Realm, then she can directly condense Purple Mansion Divine Ability and step into the Purple Mansion Realm.

This is the most powerful aspect of the path of Luck; there is no need for hard cultivation, just as long as Luck reaches a certain scale, it can promote the advancement of the Realm.

But Luck is a double-edged sword; if not used well, it will not only hurt others but also oneself.

Before long, the two successfully entered the city. They did not immediately start teaching martial arts, but instead toured around Liyuan Commandery for a while.

The five years since they confirmed their relationship had been spent in empty ruins; now that they had finally come to the Commandery city, they naturally had to have a good time.

For seven consecutive days, they walked through every corner of Liyuan Commandery, every street and alley, and saw all kinds of Cultivators, which greatly enriched their horizons.

”I finally know why Zhu Xiao wanted to cross the border to the Western Territory.” Chen Zhuyun sat by the window on the second floor of a restaurant, looking down; Cultivators on the street were endless.

Ruan Zhirou supported her cheek with one hand, looked down along his gaze, and smiled: ”Read ten thousand books, travel ten thousand miles. If you don’t enter the Mortal World, how can you transcend the Mortal World?”

There are countless living beings in the world, and every place has its own customs and conditions. Traveling more will hone both one’s horizons and state of mind.

This sentence is extremely applicable to both Mortals and practitioners.

”Rou’er, it’s time to go.”

Chen Zhuyun stood up, his eyes becoming sharp; he hadn’t forgotten the purpose of this trip.

Just as the two were about to leave the restaurant, several figures blocked their way.

The leader was drunk, looking at Ruan Zhirou unscrupulously, and let out an obscene laugh: ”You, a mere Mortal, can actually take such a beautiful Fairy as a wife, it’s truly a waste of heavenly treasure.”

As he spoke, he licked his lips, reached out, and grabbed towards Ruan Zhirou.

”Ah Yun, kill them all.” Ruan Zhirou’s expression was calm, looking at the few people as if looking at dead people.

The next moment, an Evil Qi like a rolling sea and collapsing mountains spread out, and the whole restaurant was shaking.

Flesh and blood flew, bone fragments splashed, as if a Demon Lord who had slaughtered thousands of living beings was furious, wanting to wash the world in blood.

Such a shocking scene made other Cultivators in the restaurant dumbfounded, scared speechless.

Soon, a dozen Cultivators filed in, seemingly prepared.

”Where did these evil Cultivators come from, daring to kill in Liyuan Commandery!” The leader was a middle-aged man in white robes, his Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator aura radiating.

Chen Zhuyun stood with his hands behind his back, glanced at this person sideways, his tone indifferent: ”Who sent you here?”

”Dead people don’t need to know so much!”

The white-robed middle-aged man had killing intent blooming in his eyes, directly sacrificing an earthy yellow Flying Sword, which pierced through the Void Realm with a swish, stabbing straight at him.

Chen Zhuyun stretched out his right hand, and under the horrified gazes of everyone, grabbed forward. The earthy yellow Flying Sword wailed and was caught in his hand just like that, unable to move.

”What?” The white-robed middle-aged man was dumbfounded; the Flying Sword he sacrificed was a Tier 2 Magical Artifact, and even Foundation Establishment-level Body Cultivators would have to avoid its edge.

This person in front of him clearly has no cultivation, how can he use his Physical Body to hard-block a Flying Sword? This is unreasonable!

”Sure enough, it’s an evil path, it must be executed!” The white-robed middle-aged man reacted very quickly, his inner magic power surging, intending to take back the earthy yellow Flying Sword.

But Chen Zhuyun’s right hand was like a five-fingered Great Mountain; no matter how hard he tried, it was of no use.

”I haven’t even started yet, and you people have already jumped out.”

Chen Zhuyun’s cold eyes swept over these people, his tone indifferent, ”Could it be that you have been paying attention to martial arts all along and don’t want this path to rise?”

Crack, crack!

While speaking, the earthy yellow Flying Sword in his hand crackled, and then, under the shocked gazes of everyone, it shattered inch by inch, turning into dozens of pieces of scrap iron falling to the ground.

Clang!

The sound of metal falling to the ground rang out, and a thick, mountain-like, scorching blood energy permeated. A figure like a Demon God took a step forward, like a piece of heaven and earth pressing forward, making people unable to breathe.

Boom!

A fist mark like a great sun was delivered, its intense light even more dazzling than the sun, like an active volcano erupting, with endless energy blooming; the Void Realm could not bear it, twisting and shattering.

When everything dissipated, there were no more figures of those Cultivators in the arena.

Chen Zhuyun looked expressionless, taking Ruan Zhirou away from the restaurant.

Not long after, several Cultivators wearing law enforcement robes descended, obviously coming to hold them accountable.

Chen Zhuyun didn’t hide anything either, directly revealing his identity as the eldest young master of the Chen family. The few people apologized repeatedly and left sheepishly.

The Chen family is currently in its prime; that Dou Zhan Demon King killed consecutive Purple Mansion Middle Stage True Persons, and his power is even higher than the Jieyang True Person of the Jieyang Sect, not someone they can offend.

Half a month later, a martial arts hall named Fengyun was established.

It does not teach the Immortal Dao, only martial arts.

It does not look at Spiritual Roots, only bone structure.

Everyone can practice martial arts, and everyone can become a Dragon!

For a time, the entire Liyuan Commandery was in an uproar, especially among those Foundation Establishment Factions.

Because Fengyun Martial Arts Hall proclaimed that martial arts had opened up a new world, and Gangsha Martial Artists could compete with Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators.

And the master of Fengyun Martial Arts Hall, Chen Zhuyun, suddenly became the center of public opinion and the key to everyone’s discussion.

Liyuan Commandery, which had been calm for many years, saw winds and clouds rise again, all because of one person!
