Longevity Reward Redemption: The Immortal Clan Starts with Farmers

82: With the cultivation technique in hand, the Chen family’s top secretHearing his elder brother’s words, a cold glint flashed in Chuanwen’s eyes. For the sake of the Immortal Cultivation Manual, it would be no pity if the entire Zhao Family were wiped out.

The two exchanged a glance and entered the Zhao Family residence through the back door.

At that time, the members of the Zhao Family did not yet know of Zhao Zhiyi’s death. Seeing Chuanwen and his brother enter, they rushed forward to block them.

Chuanwu had no patience for these people. With a horizontal sweep of his iron spear, he broke the bones and tendons of the Zhao Family’s guards within a few moves.

Seeing how fierce Chuanwu was, the Zhao Family members dared not block them any longer. Chuanwen and his brother did not want to waste time with these people; they knew the Immortal Cultivation Manual was a top secret that Zhao Zhiyi would never have told them about.

The two walked into the courtyard, and Chuanwen immediately spotted Xiao Er’s corpse in front of the study.

”Xiao Er?”

Chuanwen murmured. He had participated in the training of these orphans, so he was naturally familiar with him. However, he had not expected that on the very eve of the Zhao Family’s destruction, Xiao Er would actually be dead!

Chen Chuanwen ran quickly toward Xiao Er, the muscles in his face tensed. He saw that Xiao Er’s chest had been pierced through; it was clear he was long dead!

”Xiao Er, how could you die?”

Chuanwen sighed deeply, wanting to take Xiao Er’s body back to be buried.

Just as he was moving the body, Chuanwu’s gaze suddenly shifted, and he grabbed Chuanwen’s hand.

”Look at the ground!”

Hearing Chuanwu’s words, Chuanwen looked down at the ground and saw a line of words smeared in blood.

”The Cultivation Technique is on the bookshelf, the cover has been changed.”

Chuanwen’s pupils constricted. He quickly understood that this was Xiao Er’s final message, intended to inform him of the whereabouts of the Immortal Cultivation Manual.

”Big Brother, it’s in the study!”

Chen Chuanwen turned to Chuanwu and said, and then the two of them headed toward the study together.

The bookshelf was filled with books. Chuanwen stepped forward and, following Xiao Er’s final message, began to search through the books. Soon, he found two miscellaneous books with changed covers.

The two opened them and took a look; what was recorded inside was indeed the Immortal Cultivation Manual!

”Haha, we finally found it. Father’s long-cherished wish is finally fulfilled!”

Chuanwu laughed aloud and then tucked the Immortal Cultivation Manual into his chest.

Chuanwen, however, sighed. For the sake of this Immortal Cultivation Manual, their Chen Family had paid too much.

”It’s a pity for Xiao Er. He performed such a great service, yet died before the Zhao Family was destroyed!”

Chen Chuanwen sighed rarely, then walked out of the study and picked up Xiao Er’s body; he wanted to take Xiao Er back to the Chen Family with him.

After finding the manual, the two rode their horses straight to the Chen Family Courtyard House.

At this time, Chen Changsheng was at home entertaining the comrades who had come with Chuanwu. They had also contributed to the safety of the Chen Family, so Chen Changsheng had specially asked the villagers of Kaoshan Village to serve good wine and meat to host them.

”Father, we found it!”

Chuanwu returned home a step earlier. Seeing Chen Changsheng’s figure, he quickly trotted over and whispered into Chen Changsheng’s ear.

Chen Changsheng’s eyes lit up. After spending so much time, the Immortal Cultivation Manual was finally in his hands!

”Take me to the study to have a look!”

Chen Changsheng hurriedly took Chuanwu to the study. When Chuanwu took out the Immortal Cultivation Manual, Chen Changsheng’s hands trembled slightly as he took it!

”Hahaha! Heaven bless my Chen Family! I, Chen Changsheng, can finally Cultivate. The Chen Family can ascend to become an Immortal Family!”

Chen Changsheng flipped through a few pages and, seeing that the content was indeed the Immortal Cultivation Manual, he could not help but laugh out loud.

After a long while, Chen Changsheng finally calmed his agitated mood. Just then, Chuanwu quietly stepped forward and said to Chen Changsheng:

”Father, I have something to say, please don’t be unhappy!”

Chen Changsheng had fulfilled a long-cherished wish of many years and was in high spirits; how could he be unhappy? So he readily agreed.

”Father, when I was in the army, I heard an Immortal say that for those who Cultivate, besides the Immortal Cultivation Manual, they also need a Spiritual Root. Just like me, without a Spiritual Root, even if I possess the Immortal Cultivation Manual, I cannot step into the Immortal gate!”

When Chen Chuanwu said this, he saw that Chen Changsheng’s expression remained calm and did not show any signs of displeasure, so he continued:

”Father, Spiritual Roots are hard to find. In the Mortal world, they are one in ten thousand. Even if our Family has the Immortal Cultivation Manual, it is not certain that anyone has a Spiritual Root!”

Chen Chuanwu actually found it a bit hard to understand why his father’s obsession with Cultivation was so deep. The reason he said this was to make his father understand the difficulty of the Immortal path and to live a down-to-earth life.

Chen Changsheng did not say a word, only looked at Chen Chuanwu with a serious expression, and only after the other party became a bit flustered did he softly say:

”Chuanwu, I will tell you the biggest secret of our Family!”

Chuanwu was stunned, somewhat confused. Wasn’t this about Cultivation? Why did it suddenly shift to the Family’s biggest secret?

”Father, go ahead, I am listening!”

Chuanwu scratched his head and said. Chen Changsheng patted Chuanwu’s shoulder and said with a smile:

”Do you still remember the Five Elements Origin Cultivation Art that Father taught you when you were young?”

Chen Chuanwu recalled it and nodded. Chen Changsheng continued:

”This Cultivation Technique, upon reaching the Innate realm, can allow a Mortal to give birth to a Spiritual Root!”

As Chen Changsheng’s words fell, it immediately caused a huge shock in Chen Chuanwu’s heart!

How important is a Spiritual Root!

It could be said that whether one possesses a Spiritual Root represents the boundary between the Immortal and the Mortal!

And the Chen Family’s Cultivation Technique could actually Cultivate a Spiritual Root. If this matter were known to others, it is estimated that all Innate Masters—no, even Immortals would be unable to resist the temptation to wipe out the Chen Family and forcibly seize the Cultivation Technique!

”Father, does anyone else know about this?”

Chen Chuanwu’s mind felt dizzy for a moment, but he quickly woke up. He grabbed Chen Changsheng’s arm and asked in a nervous tone.

”Rest assured, only Father knows. But now there is you as well. You are not allowed to spread this, not even to your younger brother, wife, or children!”

Chen Changsheng smiled and patted Chuanwu’s shoulder. Hearing Chen Changsheng’s answer, Chuanwu finally felt at ease. This matter was truly too important; it was both an opportunity for the Chen Family’s rise and a potential calamity of extermination!

”Father, rest assured, your child swears never to spread this!”

Chen Chuanwu hurriedly raised his hand to make a vow. Chen Changsheng smiled slightly and handed the Immortal Cultivation Manual in his hand back to Chen Chuanwu.

”In our Family, only you have reached the Blood Refining Peak. I intend to pass the Five Elements Origin Cultivation Art to you. After you achieve a Breakthrough to the Innate realm, you will Cultivate this Immortal Cultivation Manual and officially step onto the path of Cultivation!”

Chen Changsheng said to Chen Chuanwu in a grave tone. Chen Chuanwu looked at the Immortal Cultivation Manual in front of him and felt it was exceptionally heavy.

Who could have imagined that a child of a field farmer could one day have the opportunity to step into the Immortal gate?

”Father, can I really do it?”

For the first time in his life, Chen Chuanwu felt unconfident. Chen Changsheng gently patted Chen Chuanwu’s shoulder and said in a firm tone in his ear:

”Father believes you definitely can. Not just you, but also your brother—our whole Family will step onto the path of Cultivation!”

”Our Chen Family will definitely rise and become a true Immortal Family of longevity in this world!”
