Longevity Thunder Ancestor

Chapter 319: Xia Family Cultivators Set Out to Expand Southward

Huayu Sect also showed great sincerity.

A very high-quality habitat near the Bailu Mountains was directly allocated to the Xia family to accommodate the Xia family's large mortal bloodline. Thousands of cultivators of the Xia family were also directly incorporated into the sect.

The most surprising thing is that Huayu Sect directly opened up the tenth inner gate mountain for the Xia family, and the two Jindan ancestors of the Xia family served as the peak masters.

They don't even have to abide by the rule set by the Grand Elder of Huayu Sect that "Jindan elders from the same family cannot serve in the same inner peak."

In addition, Huayu Sect directly gave the Xia family 300 places for inner disciples.

You know, the total number of inner disciples in Huayu Sect is less than 3,000, which is equivalent to giving them a 10% share directly at once.

In the past few days, large flying boats have been flying in one after another, carrying members of the Xia family and large amounts of supplies.

This made the usually solemn Huayu Sect's mountain gate seem a bit more lively.

Half a month later, many inner sect disciples of Huayu Sect gathered at Lingxiao Peak, the first peak of the inner sect, to specifically welcome the cultivators of the Xia family to join.

At the top of Lingxiao Peak, on the huge green jade square, more than two thousand inner disciples were looking at the hundreds of cultivators of the Xia family in the center with curiosity.

The leaders were naturally the two Jindan cultivators from the Xia family.

The older ones looked to be around forty years old, with a gaunt face, rosy complexion, skin as white as a baby's, and a smile on their faces that made people feel like spring breeze.

He just stood with his hands behind his back, yet he had the demeanor of a man as majestic as a mountain.

This person is none other than Xia Family’s great elder [Master Yuanhe] Xia Yuanming.

Next to him was a tall monk with a square face, broad forehead and thick beard, looking rough and powerful.

A pair of tiger eyes were cold and bright, with a faint murderous aura emanating from this person, making people dare not look at him for even a second glance.

This person is none other than Xia family’s second Jindan elder [Master Yuanhu] Xia Qinhu.

Behind them were a group of foundation-building cultivators from the Xia family.

Among them, there were two fake elixir cultivators and seven or eight cultivators in the late foundation-building stage, which showed the profound foundation of the Xia family.

In the area where the young disciples of the Xia family were standing, there was a man and a woman who attracted a lot of attention.

The young woman was as pretty as a fairy, with a clear mind and graceful figure, and skin as white as ice, as if she was born with the spirit of heaven and earth. Her beauty even gave people a feeling of unreality, and many male disciples present were stunned.

The young man next to her was also handsome, imposing, and looked full of vigor.

The key point is that this person looks very young, but he is already in the middle stage of foundation building, which is eye-catching.

"This Junior Sister Xia Xinlan is truly worthy of her reputation. I have never seen such a beautiful face before."

Cao Xian, who was beside Ning Fa, took a long time to come back to his senses, and spoke to Ning Fa in amazement.

Ningfa nodded.

Even he had to admit that this woman named Xia Xinlan was even more beautiful than Meng Ruoqi and Ling Yue. Even he was amazed.

"Junior Brother Ning, let me tell you another piece of gossip. It is said that Junior Sister Xia is extremely talented." Cao Xian seemed to have thought of something, and spoke to Ning Fa with a sly look on his face.

"I know this. I heard that Junior Sister Xia has an extremely rare natural spiritual root talent." Ning Fa exclaimed.

Cao Xian shook his head and laughed, "That's not all. It's said that this Junior Sister Xia not only has a natural spiritual root, but also possesses a very rare special spiritual body. If a male cultivator can practice dual cultivation with her, he will gain great benefits. I heard that several outstanding descendants of the ten great Jindan families fought fiercely for the favor of Junior Sister Xia."

"Besides other things, Senior Brother Ouyang fell in love with Junior Sister Xia at first sight. The Ouyang family also made great efforts to successfully merge the Xia family into our sect. Senior Brother Ouyang may be able to marry the beauty in the future. After all, the two of them are well-matched. Tsk tsk, I really envy Senior Brother Ouyang."

Ningfa looked at him strangely.

The Senior Brother Ouyang that Cao Xian mentioned was naturally the number one of the younger generation in that family faction, Ouyang Tianzong.

Speaking of which, this Senior Brother Cao is currently working under Ouyang Tianzong, following him to expand into the Yunhuang Lake in the south.

At this time, Cao Xian sent him a voice message: "Brother Ning, look at the man next to Sister Xia. His name is Xia Mingyang, and he is not a simple person either. It is said that he has the aptitude of a top-grade spiritual root, and the key is that his comprehension is extremely high. He has successfully established his foundation without taking the foundation-building pill before. Now, before he is thirty years old, he has already reached the middle stage of the foundation-building realm, and it is very likely that he will become a golden elixir cultivator in the future. In addition to Sister Xia, it means that the younger generation of the Xia family is likely to have two more golden elixir cultivators, and it is no wonder that the sect attaches so much importance to the Xia family. Look at the elders of the master-disciple faction, their faces are already a little unhappy."

Ningfa looked in the direction he said.

Although the core figures of the master-disciple faction, such as Jade Dragon Master and Daoyin Master, still had smiles on their faces, they seemed to be very welcoming to the Xia family's joining, and there was no sign of anything unusual.

However, several Jindan elders from the master-disciple faction looked visibly gloomy.

Even with the cunning Jindan cultivators, they are unable to maintain their appearance, so you can imagine how bad their mood is.

This time, the sect allocated a lot of benefits to the Xia family, and most of these benefits came from the master-disciple faction.

What’s more troubling is that this is likely just the beginning.

Ning Fa even discovered that not only the master-disciple faction, but even the two Jindan elders of the Cheng family were obviously forcing themselves to smile.

Especially True Person Zihua, her already somewhat cold face was now covered with a layer of frost.

Ning Fa thought to himself that it seemed that there would be a reshuffle of the sect's top leaders in the future before a new stability could be achieved.

But it has no effect on him now.

The Xia family's joining slightly delayed the time that Huayu Sect had originally planned to expand southward into Yunhuang. After that, the sect began to operate at full capacity and officially dispatched personnel to the front line of Yunhuang Lake.

And many of Huayu Sect's affiliated forces had already been transferred in advance.

Soon Ningfa also received a notice from Duanmu Ling and officially assembled and set off.

Not long after, a huge flying boat about a hundred feet long rose into the sky from the top of Luoxing Peak and shot towards the south.

On the first floor of the flying boat, many foundation-building monks sat down separately, and in front of them, Duanmu Ling was looking at everyone with a faint smile on his face.

The bald man, Feng Jue, was standing next to the porthole not far away, looking out the window with a calm expression, wondering what he was thinking.

"This time, we will rely on you for the expedition to the south. Please rest assured that I, Duanmu Ling, always keep my word and will definitely fulfill the conditions I promised you." Duanmu Ling said in a deep voice.

"Senior Sister Duanmu, don't we believe in you? Otherwise, how could we follow you willingly?" A tall and thin monk with a pair of triangular eyes said immediately.

The others also came out to respond.

Duanmu Ling's smile deepened a little, and then he began to introduce the relevant arrangements.

While listening, Ningfa secretly looked at the other people around him.

Among the many cultivators on this level, in addition to Duanmu Ling and Feng Jue, there were also twenty foundation-building cultivators.

This made Ning Fa secretly smack his lips, and he couldn't help but sigh at the Duanmu family's profound foundation and strong appeal.

You should know that there are only more than sixty foundation-building cultivators in their Yuncang Peak.

It is also said that the sect has specifically warned against allowing these elite disciples to recruit too many people, so as not to affect the combat effectiveness of the main force.

Otherwise, with Duanmu Ling's appeal, she should be able to easily recruit more foundation-building cultivators.

And now it seems that these twenty foundation-building monks were obviously carefully selected.

Among them, there is a fake elixir cultivator, four are in the late foundation building stage, eight are in the middle foundation building stage, and the other seven including Ning Fa are in the early foundation building stage.

Moreover, these cultivators either have an overwhelming spiritual pressure or a deep and obscure aura. It is obvious that they are not ordinary foundation-building cultivators.

Duanmu Ling had already given a brief introduction to everyone.

Some of them came from the inner sect peaks, some were cultivators from the Duanmu family, and some were cultivators from several vassal families of the Duanmu family.

Just as Ningfa was looking at the others, he suddenly looked to the right.

He saw a monk who looked older than Ningfa, with dark skin and a tough face, looking at him unscrupulously.

Seeing Ningfa looking at him, he not only did not avoid her gaze, but smiled at her provocatively.

Ningfa frowned slightly.

From the moment he entered the flying boat, the man seemed to look at him with some hostility.

Ningfa couldn't help but recall this man's information.

This person's name is Wu Zesheng, and he is also an inner disciple of Yun Cangfeng. Moreover, the Wu family he was born into is the first vassal family of the Duanmu family.

Although it is a vassal family, its family strength is not weak at all. It is said that it has eight or nine foundation-building cultivators, and its strength is far beyond that of the Ning family.

The fake Dan cultivator present now is none other than Wu Tianxiang, the great elder of the Wu family.

Otherwise, those fake alchemy monks in the sect all have important tasks to do, and even Duanmu Ling would find it difficult to invite them.

Ning Fa couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. He didn't remember having any grudges with this Wu Zesheng, and they had never even spoken to each other before. Why did this guy seem so hostile towards him?
Ning Fa was too lazy to care about him. It would be best if this person was just hostile. If he dared to take action, then we would just have to wait and see.

Among these monks, Ningfa recognized two of them.

One of them was Feng Jue’s disciple Pan Jiao. Pan Jiao had assisted him in seizing treasures in the Yuanling Secret Realm.

Although it didn't play any role, the two of them developed a friendship.

This person has a generous and open-minded personality. He did not feel resentful for being replaced by Ningfa. Instead, he admired Ningfa's strength very much and was very enthusiastic every time he saw Ningfa.

In fact, he had been able to build a foundation a long time ago, but he had been suppressing himself in order to participate in the secret realm.

Not long after he came out of the secret realm, he had successfully established his foundation. With his strength in both cultivation of magic and body, he was not weaker than the average cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building. Naturally, he was recruited by Duanmu Ling.

The other person was a middle-aged monk with a square face.

This man's name is Cui Hong, and he used to work in the law enforcement team of Yungufang City.

At that time, when Zhang Zhihu bullied Ling Yunjian, Cui Hong also came to his aid, so Ning Fa had a good impression of him.

After he successfully built his foundation, he specially hosted a banquet for this person.

Cui Hong is also very straightforward in character and admires Ning Fa's strength very much. The relationship between the two is pretty good.

　There is a reason why the Xia family was introduced in detail, and several members of the Xia family are also characters in the later plots.
