Chapter 288 Mastery of Divine Power, Xu Family Engagement (Bonus Chapter for Monthly Tickets, Please Vote!)

"How can it be?!"

The Azure Wolf True Lord cried out in shock, his eyes filled with horror and disbelief, his voice trembling slightly with shock.

"You're only at the early stage of the Golden Core realm, how could you possibly withstand the full force of my divine power?!"

Then, as if struck by a thought, he pointed at Xu Chuan and exclaimed, "Wait a minute, your supernatural powers have actually reached a great level?!"

Xu Chuan stood in mid-air, hands behind his back, a slight smile playing on his lips, but he didn't utter a single word.

There was a chorus of voices discussing the matter everywhere below.

"The True Lord of Withering and Flourishing has achieved great mastery of his divine powers?!"

"Then wouldn't he be a true True Monarch-level expert!"

"My Heavenly Azure Palace has gained another True Lord!"

"Not only that, although they are all Great Perfection Divine Powers, True Monarch Ku Rong is only at the early stage of Golden Core, yet he can withstand True Monarch Cang Lang's Divine Powers."

It is evident that the divine power of the True Lord of Withering and Flourishing is even greater than that of the opponent.

"As far as I know, the withering and flourishing divine abilities are all divine abilities created by ancient cultivators, and they are extremely difficult to comprehend."

At this moment, True Lord Canglang finally regarded Xu Chuan as a true opponent. His dark green pupils narrowed slightly as he stared intently at Xu Chuan, like a gray wolf.

The inner turmoil was forcibly suppressed.

He knew that when facing an ordinary Golden Core cultivator who was inferior to him, he could be arrogant and disregard them.

But at this moment, Xu Chuan gave him the feeling of facing a strong opponent of the same level.

If you are careless, the consequences will be far more serious than just encountering danger.

"Patriarch Xu, your reputation for decay and glory is indeed well-deserved. Now, take another blow from this True Monarch!"

This move also confirmed his suspicions.

His hands moved rapidly, forming hand seals. The gray mist around him churned more violently, and three giant wolf shadows, each five or six zhang tall, materialized from the mist, their bodies wreathed in black lightning.

It looks incredibly imposing!

"go with!"

The three giant wolves galloped away.

Xu Chuan smiled faintly, turned around and called out, "Fellow Daoists, stop watching the show! My magical power is exhausted. Quickly lend me a hand!"

"This is, after all, your three families' territory!"

The four exchanged glances and immediately activated their natal magic weapons to attack. Xu Chuan also unleashed the Heaven-Turning Seal once again.

The seal swelled to four or five zhang in size in the face of the wind, its suppressive power pushed to its limit, and it crashed down with the overwhelming momentum of a mountain.

boom! boom! boom!
The five of them joined forces and successfully blocked the attack of the Azure Wolf True Lord.

True Monarch Canglang laughed, "I see. Fellow Daoist Kurong, although your supernatural powers are strong, your mana consumption is very high. With your current mana at the early stage of the Golden Core realm, you cannot support continuous use."

He seemed relieved, and the tension in his heart eased slightly.

"So what if you see through me?" Xu Chuan said frankly, "Even if I and these fellow Daoists from Xin Su City join forces, you won't gain any advantage."

"While the supernatural power is formidable, it also consumes a significant amount of mana. Even if you are in the late Golden Core stage, you cannot recklessly unleash its power."

"What if I, the True Lord, were to use a magical treasure?"

With a flick of his wrist, the Azure Wolf True Monarch revealed a dark green, cone-shaped magic weapon in his palm, its aura far surpassing that of the magic weapons held by Xu Chuan and the others.

"A mid-grade magic weapon?!" The Tang family patriarch's expression changed once again.

The power of a mid-grade magic weapon differs greatly from that of a low-grade magic weapon.

If someone in the early stage of the Golden Core realm possesses a low-grade magic weapon, they can fight against someone in the middle stage of the Golden Core realm, even if they are of a higher level.

If True Lord Canglang were to use his supernatural powers in combination with a mid-grade magic weapon to attack, they would be no match for him!
"True Lord Canglang, this farce should end now."

A figure in golden robes suddenly appeared. "A dignified late-stage Golden Core True Monarch bullying an early-stage Golden Core cultivator? If you really want to fight, I'll fight you."

The newcomer was True Lord Lieyang, who had a golden wheel in his palm that continuously emitted a clear ringing sound.

Its oppressive aura far surpassed that of the dark green cone-shaped magic weapon of the Azure Wolf True Monarch.

“True Lord Lieyang.” True Lord Canglang’s expression immediately became extremely solemn, full of vigilance.

“Fellow Daoist in the distance, you are also from the Greedy Wolf Sect, right? Why hide? Show yourself.”

"As expected of the renowned Blazing Sun True Monarch of the Heavenly Forging Sect!"

A streak of bluish-gray light flew over and landed beside True Lord Canglang. It was a vigorous, robust old man with slightly graying temples.

"Senior Brother," said True Monarch Canglang.

The old man from the Luo family changed his expression. "I've heard that the Greedy Wolf Sect has more than one True Lord. Above the Azure Wolf True Lord, there is also the Heavenly Wolf True Lord."

"Fellow Daoist Luo has keen eyesight; he is indeed the True Lord."

The Heavenly Wolf True Monarch immediately unleashed his aura, the kind of aura belonging to a Golden Core Perfection expert.

The Fiery Sun True Lord's pupils narrowed slightly, and he also released his aura, standing shoulder to shoulder with him.

Russian qing.

Both of them simultaneously restrained their imposing manner.

Sirius True Monarch turned to look at Xu Chuan and said with a faint smile, "Fellow Daoist Kurong's talent is truly enviable. It has only been a short time, yet he has already achieved great mastery of supernatural powers. He may very well reach the realm of perfection in the future!"

"What happened today was my junior brother's fault. These three mid-grade spirit stones will serve as an apology for the disturbance. I will now take my junior brother back."

Three spirit stones flew towards Xu Chuan.

Xu Chuan readily accepted, but at the same time, he began to feel wary of Tianlang Zhenjun.

For someone who cultivates demonic arts to be able to control their mindset to such an unperturbed state of mind is truly remarkable; they may well reach the Nascent Soul stage in the future.

After saying this, True Lord Tianlang left with True Lord Canglang.

Looking at his retreating figure, True Monarch Lieyang transmitted his voice, saying, "This person is not to be underestimated. True Monarch Qingmu of the Tiancang Sect is no match for him. You'd better keep that in mind."

"What realm is True Lord Aoki in?"

"Around the late stage of the ninth level of the Golden Core realm, although not far from the perfection of the Golden Core realm, it will probably take several decades to truly reach it."

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Lieyang."

"Now that this matter is settled, I will head back."

Lord Lieyang then departed as well.

Xu Chuan looked at the Golden Core cultivators from the Yan, Tang, and Luo families and said with a faint smile, "Thank you all for your help just now, otherwise I really might not have been able to withstand the second divine power of True Monarch Canglang."

"True Lord Ku Rong is too kind. Your strength is already not far from that of True Lord Cang Lang. Once you reach the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm, you will surely be able to truly rival him," said the elder of the Luo family.

“That’s right, the True Lord’s Withering and Flourishing Divine Power is even more powerful than the Azure Wolf True Lord’s; the only difference is in magical power.” The Tang family patriarch also chimed in.

"Since everything is alright, we'll leave now so we don't have to interfere with True Lord Ku Rong's handling of the aftermath."

"Yes."

"Farewell, True Lord Ku Rong!"

After saying this, they all returned to their respective residences.

Xu Chuan looked down and said, "Tianba, dispose of their bodies."

"Yes, master."

Huang Tianba clasped his hands in a fist salute, then put away the two people's storage bags and magical artifacts, and then flicked out a spiritual flame with his finger.

The spiritual flame split in two, cleanly and efficiently burning the two corpses to ashes.

"Today, because of my Ascension Pavilion incident, you have all been caught in the crossfire. I hereby announce that today, anyone who enters my Ascension Pavilion to purchase items will enjoy a 10% discount."

"Thank you, True Lord Kurong!" Everyone's faces were full of joy, and they all bowed and paid their respects.

Xu Chuan nodded slightly, transformed into a streak of green light, and flew towards Yunxi Town.

"This is the true demeanor of a sage!"

"Yes, like that True Lord Canglang, he is extremely domineering and doesn't take us seriously at all. He can kill us at will without even flinching."

"In the cultivation world, strength is ultimately paramount, and Golden Core cultivators as easygoing as True Monarch Ku Rong are always a minority."

"What this fellow Daoist said makes sense. We should buy more resources from the Ascension Pavilion and focus on our cultivation."

"Hmm? Fellow Daoist, are you perhaps a shill for the Ascension Pavilion?"

"Senior brother, what do you think of Xu Chuan? I provoked him as you instructed, and lured him out."

Sirius True Monarch glanced at Azure Wolf True Monarch, "Are you sure you're doing it my way, and not just settling a personal score? If you really destroy the Ascension Pavilion, things won't end so peacefully today."

"Isn't it because you, Senior Brother, are here that True Monarch Lieyang is afraid of your strength and dares not make a move?" True Monarch Canglang chuckled.

"Do you really think that True Lord Lieyang is afraid to make a move?" True Lord Tianlang said indifferently, "He's just too lazy to make a move."

Although the Xu family and the Tianling Sect have a close relationship, the one who is truly connected is the "Phoenix Feather" Fairy. It is already quite remarkable that Xu Chuan was able to persuade her to come out and exert her influence.

Let him fight someone of the same realm. Unless I'm determined to take action against Xu Chuan, he'll definitely avoid the trouble if possible.

"Senior brother, are you also no match for him?"

"Without a fight, no one knows who is stronger. However, he is one of the most promising cultivators in the Heavenly Forging Sect to enter the Nascent Soul stage. In addition to that superior-grade natal magic weapon, he will definitely be given a top-grade magic weapon for protection."

Between magical treasures, even a difference of just one grade can result in a significant difference in power.

Of course, a true life-or-death battle is not simply a direct clash between magical weapons; many factors can influence the outcome.

"What if the Heavenly Feather Sect sides with the Heavenly Azure Sect in the future?" True Monarch Canglang's expression became extremely solemn.

“I believe not,” said True Lord Tianlang. “Although I don’t know why the Tianzhu Sect would want to establish a branch in Tiancang Prefecture, it might be because of Fairy Phoenix Feather, or it might be for other reasons.”

But whatever the reason, they all have their own plans, and they would never get involved in the battle between our two sects unless absolutely necessary.

"That's good."

“However, the Xu family…” True Monarch Tianlang paused for a moment.

"The Xu family is indeed not simple. After fighting with him today, I found that his supernatural abilities have reached a high level. His comprehension is truly terrifying."

However, his level of cultivation is ultimately too low; he is not as good as my junior brother.

"Are you sure?"

"Senior brother, what do you mean by this?"

"My intuition tells me that Xu Chuan is hiding his true strength very well. It's hard to say whether he used his full power today."

"No way." True Monarch Canglang swallowed hard, a look of disbelief flashing in his eyes.

"It doesn't matter whether it's the Xu family or the Tianling Sect. As long as that person breaks through to the Nascent Soul stage, taking down the Tiancang Sect won't be difficult."

Even the Heavenly Forging Sect is not afraid.

"Once we become the masters of Tiancang Prefecture, these aristocratic families will be at our mercy."

"That's right."

After saying this, the two stopped chatting and transformed into rainbow streaks, disappearing into the horizon in the blink of an eye.

Xu Chuan returned to his clan's territory.

Regulate your breathing and meditate.

Third-tier pills are precious, and Xu Chuan would not be so extravagant as to consume them casually.

Half a day later.

His magical powers were restored to their full strength.

Previously, it was naturally a performance for the Azure Wolf True Lord and the Heavenly Wolf True Lord.

Sirius True Lord observed from afar with his divine sense. Although he was trying to hide it, he did not fail to catch Xu Chuan's attention.

With his strength, he could easily fight against the Azure Wolf True Monarch for a while, and there's no reason why his mana would be depleted by more than half in just one move.

"Once another six months have passed and I have completely refined the Azure Dragon Umbrella into my natal magic weapon, I will truly have the confidence to confront True Monarch-level powerhouses like Azure Wolf True Monarch head-on."

However, I still need to refine another magic weapon that can complement my Withering and Flourishing Divine Power. I can let Ling'er think about it.

Thinking of this, Xu Chuan went to find Xu Deling.

He told her about the core of his supernatural powers.

Xu Deling was greatly shocked to hear that Xu Chuan had actually mastered supernatural powers.

Both being Golden Core cultivators who had achieved the Divine Power Core Formation stage, Xu Chuan had already reached the Great Perfection of Divine Power in just over three years, while she hadn't even truly reached the Lesser Perfection stage.

This left Xu Deling somewhat frustrated.

"Why are you so down?" Xu Chuan chuckled. "Do you feel your reputation as a prodigy is undeserved?"

“Everyone’s path is different, so there’s no need to compare. You may feel that your supernatural cultivation is inferior to your grandfather’s, but your grandfather’s progress in cultivation is also inferior to yours.”

Xu Deyue and Ye Fan also have their own strengths and weaknesses.

Grandfather estimates that you are most likely the first person in our Xu family to cultivate to the peak of the Golden Core stage.

Xu Deling seemed to understand something. "Grandfather, I understand what you mean. You want me to play to my strengths and avoid my weaknesses. As long as I bring my strengths to the extreme, I can also be respected in the world!"

Xu Chuan smiled and nodded.

“Grandfather, you can entrust your magical powers and treasures to Ling’er. I will definitely design the most suitable treasures for you. However, according to what you said before, your magical powers contain the four true meanings of decay, prosperity, birth and death.”

It would require at least a mid-grade magic weapon to withstand it. It would probably take Ling'er several decades to reach the level required to refine such a weapon.

"Don't worry, Grandfather is not in a hurry. The Azure Dragon Umbrella is enough for you to defend against enemies."

Xu Chuan then left.

In the medicinal herb garden.

The withered tree has been replanted.

Because the rich spiritual energy in the "Xu Family Grotto" has little effect on the withered and flourishing tree, the innate spiritual energy was initially useful, but later it became ineffective.

It would be better to stay outside and grow up alongside Xu Chuan.

More than two years.

It has grown to a height of five or six zhang (approximately 10-12 meters), with lush branches and leaves, and is nearly two hundred years old.

In another one or two decades, it may truly mature, blossom, and bear fruit.

Of course, it could also be faster.

The deeper the meaning of Xu Chuan's "withering and flourishing," the greater the help it provides to the growth of the withering and flourishing tree.

The news that Xu Chuan, at the early stage of the Golden Core realm, had fought against the Azure Wolf True Monarch and that his supernatural powers had reached their peak spread throughout the entire Tiancang Prefecture in just a few days.

They knew about all the forces, big and small.

Upon hearing this news, Qingmu Zongfeng Juechen was shocked and regretted not seizing the opportunity to befriend Xu Chuan.

"Chen Changge, am I really less discerning than him?"

"Forget it, regret won't change anything. In the cultivation world, what matters in the end is one's own strength. During this seclusion, I must reach the third level of the Golden Core stage!"

Feng Juechen broke through to the Golden Core stage more than sixty years ago.

He has only reached the peak of the second level of the Golden Core stage. This cultivation speed is not fast, but it is not slow either.

Among the Golden Core families in the Seven Cities of Tiancang, there are those who, even after two hundred years of cultivation, remain at the second level of the Golden Core stage.

However, most of them are stuck at the bottleneck of the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm.

Of the more than twenty Golden Core cultivators in the entire Seven Cities, only five had reached the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm, and only one had reached the late stage.

This person was Ximen Xue, the patriarch of the Ximen family in Kangsu City.

The Ximen family is also known as the number one family in the Seven Cities of Tiancang. Including Ximen Xue, there are three Golden Core stage members in the family, and the other two are at the early stage of Golden Core.

The Ximen family owns the entire Kangsu City and is also the city lord of Kangsu City.

There were no other Golden Core families left in the city. "As expected of Brother Xu, his comprehension is truly extraordinary!" Chen Changge thought for a moment, "I will pay him a visit in a few days to strengthen the relationship between our two families."

"Alas, it's a pity that the Xu family is too small, with no one of marriageable age."

"The 'Phoenix Feather' fairy is unapproachable. Xu Mingxian gives me the impression of being aloof and cold, someone who should be focused on cultivation. Brother Xu, is that right?"
"Alright, let's bring it up first. If we can arrange a marriage, even a childhood betrothal would be fine."

Three days later.

Chen Changge took Chen Tianlei to the Xu family to offer their congratulations.

“Brother Chen, sometimes I really don’t want this reputation. Being troubled by True Monarch Canglang time and time again, my Xu family may be in big trouble in the future.”

“Brother Xu, why worry about the future now? I believe that with your wisdom and strategy, as well as the situation of the other outstanding talents in the Xu family, we will surely be able to resolve any troubles smoothly.”

"I accept your good advice."

"By the way," Chen Changge suddenly said, "Brother Xu, your sister-in-law has been dead for so long, have you ever thought about finding another Daoist partner to have offspring?"

By the way, let's give Mingxian's nephew a sibling.

ha?
My wife is dead! How come I didn't know?!

Mingxian already has five brothers and sisters, there's no need for more.

My Xu family has already reached the sixth generation, so it's hardly my turn to be the main force in reproduction now.

Upon hearing this, Xu Chuan's lips twitched, inwardly cursing wildly.

After all, the Xu family's storyline is that the family suffered a disaster, and he fled here with the geniuses of the family.

Such a large Golden Core family, with such a profound foundation, yet it only has six core members, which seems far too weak to outsiders.

"Brother Chen, are you going to introduce me to a Daoist partner?"

"Haha, if Brother Xu is willing, you may choose any of the women in my Chen family!"

The Chen family has really had enough of you as their ancestor!
Xu Chuan sighed softly, "No need, I'm already quite old, long past the age of youthful vigor."

Upon hearing this, Chen Changge was taken aback.

Is it appropriate for you to say this with that appearance?

Chen Tianlei's mouth was slightly open, as if he wanted to say something.

Neither of them expected to hear such an answer from Xu Chuan.

Cultivators have abundant vital energy and spirit. As long as it's not in the years before their lifespan ends and their vital energy and spirit begin to decline, they can reproduce at almost any time.

Even though Xu Chuan is still in the Foundation Establishment stage, he is still considered a young man, given his lifespan.

Not to mention that he has reached the Core Formation stage at such a young age, making him a true prodigy.

Moreover, Xu Chuan always appeared in front of everyone looking like he was in his early twenties.

"Brother Xu, you really always surprise us!"

Chen Changge was both amused and exasperated. "Other aristocratic families' Golden Core ancestors, even at four or five hundred years old, still have people who have become Daoist partners with young fairies."

"I, Xu, do not compare myself to others and only wish to follow my heart. Therefore, I will not trouble Brother Chen to act as matchmaker. If I meet a suitable fairy in the future, I will naturally become her Daoist partner."

As for having offspring, that can be done gradually.

After all, I am a Golden Core stage cultivator, with a very long lifespan!

“That makes sense.” Chen Changge had already guessed this outcome, but his main purpose was what followed. “Since Brother Xu is unwilling, why not arrange a marriage for little Chongfei?”

Surely you won't refuse this, will you?

"Ask Ye Fan and his wife; after all, it's their child."

"also."

Xu Chuan immediately transmitted his voice.

Not long after, the two arrived, and Xu Chuan brought up the matter.

Ye Fan and Xu Deyue exchanged a glance, both remaining silent and not speaking immediately.

Chen Changge said, "Rest assured, both of you. The woman my Chen family has betrothed to Chongfei will be the most outstanding and proud daughter. She is Tian Lei's youngest daughter, named Chen Yulian."

She is twelve years old this year, with the aptitude of Earth Spirit Root, and the purity of her Spirit Root is 45%. She has already blossomed, and although she is still young, she is definitely a beauty in the making, and absolutely worthy of your Chongfei.

She specializes in metal-based sword techniques and greatly admires the "Phoenix Feather" fairy and the "Cold Moon" fairy of your Xu family, vowing to take them as her role models.

Hearing this explanation, Ye Fan and his wife were left speechless, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

What are your thoughts, gentlemen?

“In that case, let’s establish a marriage agreement,” Xu Deyue said.

It's naturally a good thing for a girl with the aptitude of earth spirit roots to marry into the Xu family.

As a daughter of the Xu family, it's natural for her to consider the Xu family's interests.

"If that's what Yue'er says, then so be it. However, we'll discuss marriage after the two of them have reached the Foundation Establishment stage."

“Good.” Chen Changge’s lips curled up slightly.

"Since we've reached an agreement, let's exchange tokens. The little girl cultivates the metal-based sword technique, so this flying sword is perfect for her."

Xu Chuan smiled faintly, and as he finished speaking, he lightly patted the storage bag at his waist with his right hand.

A flash of inspiration struck the storage bag, and a clear "clang" rang out, as crisp as jade striking jade, yet with a metallic clang.

The sound immediately invigorated the group, as if a sharp energy had penetrated their very souls.

Immediately afterwards, a dazzling golden rainbow shot out from the storage bag, circled in the air for half a turn, and then slowly landed in front of Xu Chuan.

Chen Changge stared intently. The flying sword was entirely reddish-gold in color, three feet and six inches long, with a straight spine like a solitary peak. The blade was thin and sharp, and when sunlight shone on its surface, it did not reflect any light at all.

There is a feather pattern on it.

The hilt is about six inches long and is made of rare red sandalwood. The grip is engraved with non-slip cloud-patterned grooves, which feel warm and smooth to the touch but also heavy.

At the end of the sword hilt is inlaid a crystal bead the size of a pigeon's egg. The bead is amber in color, and there seems to be flowing light inside. If you look closely, you can see a palm-sized phantom of a red gold eagle hovering inside the bead.

"This sword is named 'Jinghong,' a special magical flying sword with two gold-colored markings."

Xu Chuan lightly brushed his fingertips across the sword, and the blade immediately emitted a joyful chime. "It contains a demonic spirit. This demonic spirit was crafted using a special technique and is a late-stage second-tier crimson gold eagle."

Activating this beast's innate spells can also summon its spirit to fight.

Seeing the feather patterns, Chen Tianlei asked, "Was this personally crafted by the 'Phoenix Feather' Fairy?"

Xu Chuan smiled faintly, and with a little magic power, the feather transformed into the ancient character "翎" (feather). After withdrawing the magic power, it turned back into a feather.

"This magic artifact is sufficient for the little girl before she forms her core. Its strongest power is close to that of a three-pattern magic artifact. Bring her here in a few days, and I will set up a restriction with her blood."

Only when she reaches the corresponding level of cultivation can she unlock part of its power.

There are approximately five layers of restrictions: one for the late stage of Qi Refining, one for the ninth stage of Qi Refining, and one for the early, middle, and late stages of Foundation Establishment.

By the late stage of Foundation Establishment, one could barely use complete magical artifacts.

“Comparable to a three-patterned item, this is too precious, I can’t accept it,” Chen Changge said.

Chen Tianlei felt that it was several times more valuable than his own Taotie Shield.

“Brother Chen, your Chen family is willing to marry off a proud daughter with an earth spirit root. Although this magic artifact is precious, it is nothing compared to it. Besides, she will eventually marry into my Xu family, won’t she?”

Chen Changge was taken aback for a moment, then burst into laughter, "That's right, we shouldn't let the good stuff go to outsiders."

"Brother Chen, rest assured, when the two young people get married, the dowry from my Xu family will be substantial. After all, his grandfather is Xu Mingxian, his aunt is the 'Phoenix Feather' Fairy, and his great-grandfather is me, the True Lord of Withering and Flourishing."

Xu Chongfei's marriage was arranged immediately.

A few days later, Chen Yulian arrived, led by Chen Tianlei.

Besides Ye Fan and his wife, Xu Deling and Xu Mingxian also came out of seclusion to meet their future nephew's wife and granddaughter-in-law.

Chen Yulian felt a little awkward because she had met the fairy she had admired since childhood.

Xu Chuan and the others nodded in satisfaction; she was indeed a beauty in the making.

Xu Chongfei looked at Chen Yulian and his eyes lit up. "Father, Mother, is this young lady the future Daoist partner you told me about?"

“That’s right,” Ye Fan said.

Xu Chongfei stepped forward and walked up to her, looking her up and down. He muttered to himself, "She doesn't have my mother's ethereal and otherworldly temperament, nor does she have my aunt's dignified and elegant demeanor."

Then, he turned to Ye Fan and said, "Father, can you give me a different Daoist partner?"

"You brat, what nonsense are you spouting!" Ye Fan laughed and scolded. "Do you want your father to find you a true immortal as your Daoist partner?"

His mutterings were naturally overheard by everyone, making them all burst into laughter.

"Is it not going to work?" Xu Chongfei frowned. "This is too troublesome. Fei'er doesn't want a Daoist partner anymore."

"Looks like you're asking for a beating." Ye Fan raised his hand to slap him on the head.

Xu Chongfei skillfully hid behind Xu Deyue.

Seeing Xu Deyue's expression, Ye Fan immediately chuckled and lowered his hand.

This is a classic example of one thing subduing another!
"You look down on me, and I look down on you too!" Chen Yulian retorted arrogantly. "What makes you think you can be my Daoist partner?"

"The 'Cold Moon' fairy and your father are both renowned prodigies, but you are not?"

"I, Chen Yulian, will only marry Tianjiao in this lifetime!"

"Lian'er, don't talk nonsense."

Because of her talent and aptitude, Chen Tianlei doted on her, treating her like a little princess in the Chen family. But upon hearing this, he sternly reprimanded her.

If this marriage falls through, Chen Changge will definitely render a few ounces of his flesh into oil!

Xu Chongfei made a face at Chen Yulian.

Seven or eight-year-old boys are at their most mischievous age.

Xu Deyue, Ye Fan, and Xu Mingxian spend most of their time cultivating, so Xu Chongfei is also a little tyrant in the Xu family.

After all, he is the only known heir.

He arrogantly snorted, "My parents are geniuses, my aunt is the number one genius, my grandfather is a genius, my great-grandfather was also a genius, so naturally I am a genius too!"

"Being a prodigy isn't something you can inherit; it's something you earn through your own strength and requires the unanimous recognition of everyone!"

"I'll take the plunge! I'm sure I'll become a prodigy in the future!" Xu Chongfei said.

“I am,” Chen Yulian retorted defiantly.

The two immediately started arguing, each offering their own opinion.

Xu Chuan shook his head, took out the "Jinghong" sword, tapped it with his finger to extract a drop of Chen Yulian's blood, and then set a sealing restriction on the "Jinghong" sword.

The sound of clanging echoed continuously in the hall.

The two were immediately drawn to the scene.

After a short while, Xu Chuan pushed the sword in front of Chen Yulian.

Chen Tianlei said, "Lian'er, why don't you thank True Lord Kurong?"

"Thank you, Lord True Lord." Chen Yulian bowed respectfully.

"Great-grandfather, Fei'er wants one too."

"Stop fooling around and focus on your cultivation technique."

"Oh."

The token given by the Chen family was a family heirloom jade, a third-tier Qingling jade, which, when worn, could calm the mind and enhance concentration.

soon.

Chen Tianlei then took his leave.

Xu Chongfei followed Ye Fan and his wife back to their courtyard.

Only Xu Chuan, Xu Mingxian, and Xu Deling remained in the hall.

“Grandfather, Fei’er and that little girl named Yulian are quite interesting. They are both proud and arrogant, and they will have to work things out in the future.” Xu Deling’s lips curled up slightly.

"Either the East Wind prevails over the West Wind, or the West Wind prevails over the East Wind."

"Father, you are truly concise."

"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Even if they can't stay together, that's their fate."

Xu Chuan said with a faint smile, "However, although geniuses cannot be inherited, our Fei'er is definitely a genius."

Upon hearing this, Xu Deling and Xu Mingxian both smiled slightly.

These are not the only things that happened because Xu Chuan had mastered supernatural powers.

Upon hearing this, the Mo family of Yuzhuhai sent an invitation to Xu Chuan, inviting him to participate in the Yuzhu Secret Realm trip on the third day of the third month next year.

Xu Chuan inquired and found out.

The Mo family of Yuzhuhai actually possesses an ancient secret realm all by themselves.

This secret realm possesses abundant spiritual wood resources, including even third-, fourth-, and fifth-tier spiritual wood.

But none of them are free.

You need to pass an assessment to take away the spirit wood of the corresponding grade.

In addition, there is also an ancient sect's inheritance in the secret realm, but according to the agreement with the Mo family, those who enter cannot reveal information about this inheritance.

Therefore, Xu Chuan did not find out either.

If it involves ancient sects, even if he wanted to make a calculation, it would be very difficult.

This secret realm opens once every hundred years.

The Mo family will invite many forces from Tiancang Prefecture to participate. Foundation Establishment forces will have one spot, Golden Core forces will have three spots, and Nascent Soul forces will have seven spots.

Almost all forces at the Golden Core stage and above will extend invitations, but only families valued by the Mo family will extend invitations to Foundation Establishment forces.

Most Foundation Establishment families have no chance of entering.

Years ago, the Jade Bamboo Secret Realm was quite attractive, and the Heavenly Cang Sect had its eye on it.

However, after learning about its internal situation and actually entering it, the Tiancang Sect gave up.

This secret realm can only be entered by those at or below the early stage of the Golden Core realm.

There are abundant spirit wood resources inside, but all of them require passing an assessment, which is conducted by a fourth-order being. No one can act recklessly.

Most Foundation Establishment cultivators can only obtain second-tier spirit wood.

Only the Foundation Establishment prodigies of the Heavenly Azure Sect have obtained the third-tier spirit wood.

It is speculated that one must comprehend at least 40-50% of the supernatural powers to have any chance of obtaining spirit wood of the third rank or higher.

The Golden Core stage seems to be quite difficult, with almost everyone only obtaining third-tier spirit wood and no one ever obtaining fourth-tier spirit wood.

Apart from that.

The location for the ancient inheritance assessment is also clearly marked, with clear and straightforward guidance.

Anyone with the ability can obtain a portion of the inheritance by passing the test.

Unfortunately, since the Mo family discovered it, no one has ever inherited the legacy.

"Invited me? Is it as a matter of routine? Or do you think I'm incredibly powerful?"

Although Xu Chuan had some doubts, he was indeed interested in this secret realm and wanted to see it for himself.

Ancient secret realms not only hold inheritances and opportunities, but may also conceal ancient secrets.

Time passes quickly.
