Cultivating Immortality in a Family: I Prove Immortality Through the Chaotic Dao Realm
Chapter 208 Chi Liu's Request! Fire Thorns!
Chapter 208 Chi Qianliu's Request! Fire Thorns!
"I've been waiting for you for a long time!" Chi Qianliu was not surprised but delighted to see the two huge flames!
"Die!" Red Fang roared.
The cultivators present favored Chiya more, precisely because of Chiya Tiger's innate supernatural power.
Once the Eye Flame is unleashed, it will never miss; nothing can withstand its ignition!
This flame is fast, powerful, and guided by the Crimson-Eyed Tiger Demon Soul, capable of locking onto the enemy's soul.
Without second-tier strength, it's impossible to withstand such an attack.
Just as Tong Yan was about to strike the giant wolf, a gasp of alarm rang out from the stands!
Just at this critical moment, the two giant wolves swiftly returned to Chi Qianliu's side.
At the same time, the cold rationality in Chi Qianliu's eyes was instantly replaced by a violent crimson!
An indescribable, ferocious blood energy mixed with her spiritual power, forming a layer of blood-red light on her body that resembled raging flames!
"Waaaaah—!!!"
Moved by their master's intense emotions, the two giant wolves let out howls filled with endless ferocity and pain!
Bloodshed!
Chen Qian's pupils suddenly contracted; he knew this beast-taming secret technique.
It is extremely difficult to cultivate, but its power is immense, and its side effects are also severe!
Enveloped in dark red flames, Chi Qianliu seemed to have transformed into an iron-blooded female war goddess.
She placed her palms on the heads of the two giant wolves.
A moment later, his blood flames quickly extinguished, and he felt as if all his energy had been drained away, collapsing to the ground.
Blood flames erupted simultaneously from the bodies of the two giant wolves! The power of the burning blood caused their speed, strength, and physical toughness to surge dramatically!
In the next instant, they transformed into two dark red blood shadows, moving at a speed that exceeded the visual limits of a Qi Refining cultivator! They pounced straight at the flanks of Crimson Fang and the Giant Tiger!
The two flaming pupils burning in the void seemed to have lost their target and began to spin around in the air.
Chi Ya never expected that Chi Qianliu could fight like this. At this moment, he had focused his divine sense and magic power on the Crimson-Eyed Tiger and had just unleashed a powerful attack. This was the weakest moment for him.
"Bang!"
The dark red fiery claws slammed into the heavy bone shield! A tooth-grinding corrosive sound rang out, and the bone shield flashed with spiritual light as it shattered with a single blow from the dark red claws!
"Awoo—!"
Meanwhile, another giant fiery maw had already bitten into the Crimson-Eyed Tiger's throat! The giant tiger trembled all over, its wide-open, blood-red mouth unable to utter a sound.
The two bursts of pupil flame, having lost the guidance of the Crimson-Eyed Tiger, slowly dissipated in the air.
"Wow—!" The surrounding cultivators were completely taken aback by how the battle had unfolded and exclaimed in surprise.
“Pfft——!!!”
With one swipe, it shattered the bone shield's blood claws, then swatted away Red Fang, tearing several huge gashes from his face to his thighs in a single blow.
Instantly severe injury!
"Awooo—!!!!"
The Crimson-Eyed Tiger let out a deafening howl! Its massive body convulsed violently, and its red demonic power flickered wildly as it tried to heal the wound in its throat, but how could the giant wolf possibly let go?
"Red Mountain!" Red Fang's eyes widened in horror as he saw his beloved spirit beast, bound to his very being, suffer a severe injury, causing him great shock!
"I give up! Shut up!"
"The battle is over!" Red Fang shouted.
The shouts, curses, and gasps from the stands reached their peak!
The cultivators who bet on Chi Qianliu roared with joy and anger, while those who bet wrong beat their chests and stomped their feet, glaring fiercely at Chi Ya, wishing they could devour him alive.
Chi Qianliu stood up unsteadily, cast several Beast Taming Techniques, and made the giant wolf retreat.
In animal fights, if one side voluntarily concedes defeat, the other side must cease its attack. This is an ironclad rule that no one participating in the battle can violate.
Having retreated to a safe distance, the giant wolf, its blood flames fading, flanked Chi Qianliu's body from both sides, preventing her from swaying precariously.
Chi Qianliu was panting, and the bloodshot in her eyes slowly faded.
"Wolf King wins!" the referee announced loudly.
Chen Qian's brows furrowed slightly.
Under his divine eye technique, Chi Qianliu's physical body resembled a fishing net riddled with holes, his spiritual energy stagnant and his blood and qi severely depleted.
This is not only a consequence of the recent blood-burning attack, but also a chronic illness accumulated from long-term deadly battles.
In the arena, Chi Qianliu ignored the commotion from the stands and quietly took out healing pills, carefully feeding them to the two somewhat listless giant wolves.
After a while, she put away her blood-stained weapon, turned around and walked with the giant wolf toward the contestant-only passage.
That figure, though still proud and upright, also exuded an indescribable weariness and loneliness.
“She has severely depleted her vital energy and suffered excessive damage to her meridians,” Chen Qian said. “It’s a miracle she’s still alive.”
"In this way, even with high-quality Foundation Establishment Pills, there is absolutely no possibility of advancing."
Chen Yunxi nodded silently, then looked at Chen Qian with some hesitation and said, "Husband, why is this Miss Chi working so hard? Perhaps there is some unavoidable reason. But it's really too tragic."
"Her godfather has also helped her husband in some ways, so if possible, we should help her."
"Yes, I know." Chen Qian nodded.
Putting everything else aside, just for Jin Dou's sake, it's worth it for him to help Chi Qianliu.
……
Just as Chi Qianliu was fighting a bloody battle, the mysterious Fairy Jing from Yinyuan appeared alone in front of an ancient and imposing three-story stone building in Liufangfang.
She was dressed in black, with a huge veiled hat on her head, completely concealing her figure.
Fairy Jing looked up at the plaque of the stone building, took a deep breath, and stepped inside.
Above the plaque were three ancient characters for cultivating immortality: Thousand Machines Pavilion.
It is said that the headquarters of the Thousand Machines Pavilion is located in the Dragon Head Domain, and it is a well-known and powerful force in the entire Eastern Abyss Continent.
……
Chen Qian asked Chen Yunxi to wait for him at the entrance of the healing room in the Douxuan Arena, and went inside alone to see Chi Qianliu.
When he saw her, Chi Qianliu was lost in thought and in a daze.
Upon seeing an outsider enter, Chi Qianliu was about to ask a question when Chen Qian spoke first, saying, "I just came from Fairy Jing's place."
A look of understanding appeared in Chi Qianliu's eyes, clearly indicating that she had received Jing Xianzi's message and knew Chen Qian's purpose in coming. She quickly stood up to greet him.
Seeing that she was covered in injuries and could barely stand, Chen Qian gently supported her with his hand, stopping her movements, and said, "Fellow Daoist Chi, you are injured, there is no need for such formalities."
Sensing Chen Qian's profound and boundless magical power, Chi Qianliu seemed to have secretly made up her mind, and her expression suddenly relaxed considerably. "Yes." Without any hesitation, she immediately obeyed Chen Qian's instructions and stood up straight.
The treatment room contained only futons; there were no other tables, chairs, or benches.
Chen Qian sat down cross-legged, while Chi Qianliu waited until Chen Qian was settled before kneeling properly herself.
Chen Qian was somewhat surprised; Chi Qianliu's attitude was a little too respectful.
Could there be some inside story that I don't know about?
Why was she so cautious towards a disciple of a Foundation Establishment family? Was it because the strength she displayed when she helped her earlier had intimidated her?
But Chen Qian felt that this was not the reason.
Chi Qianliu apologized and took out some medicinal powder to apply to the broken bone in her right arm, but her expression remained unchanged, clearly indicating that she was already used to being injured and healing herself.
"Second Aunt said you have news of your godfather?" she asked softly, her eyes lowered.
Chen Qian nodded without speaking, and instead took out the jade box containing Tu Yuanfeng's belongings.
Upon seeing the exquisite Foundation Establishment Pill with flowing patterns in the box, Chi Qianliu's fingertips trembled and her eyes turned red: "What exactly happened to my godfather?"
Chen Qian sighed and told Chi Qianliu in detail about Tu Yuanfeng's battle with the demonic cultivators at Green Lake.
Although Tu Yuanfeng was a Foundation Establishment cultivator of the Beast Taming Sect, he had never refined either a Soul Tablet or a Soul Lamp. Therefore, even though he had been missing for more than a year, the Beast Taming Sect could not determine his fate.
Soul tablets and soul lamps are both magical artifacts. Not only are they difficult to refine, but maintaining their connection with the cultivator also requires a lot of resources.
Within the sect, apart from a few extremely important Foundation Establishment cultivators and Core Formation cultivators, none of them possess soul tablets or soul lamps.
Therefore, although Chi Qianliu knew that Tu Yuanfeng had been missing for a long time, she still held a sliver of hope that a miracle would happen.
Now, Chen Qian has cruelly extinguished that expectation.
"Does Godfather have any last words?" Chi Qianliu asked in a low voice, her head bowed.
"He only instructed me to deliver this to you," Chen Qian replied with a soft sigh.
Chi Qianliu gripped the jade box tightly, her expression constantly shifting.
Suddenly, she straightened up and knelt prostrate before Chen Qian: "Senior Chen, please save the sisters of Firethorn! From now on, Firethorn will serve you as our master. Our only request is that if there is an opportunity in the future, we beg you to destroy the Yao family!"
"If it doesn't work out, we won't force it!"
"The Yao family, a family of true alchemists?" Chen Qian was somewhat taken aback, but he was also somewhat prepared. Chi Qianliu's attitude from the beginning showed that she must have something to ask for.
"Yes!" Chi Qianliu tore open his clothes, revealing a hideous sword scar on his chest: "More than ten years ago, the Yao family wiped out my entire Liu family. It was my aunt who dug me out of the burial pile! Now she and the remaining orphans of Firethorn have been captured by the Yao family through a scheme, their cultivation is half-crippled, and they have been sold into the Red Jade Pavilion."
"And the Jing family, the original home of the eldest and second aunts, was wiped out by the Yao family more than twenty years ago!"
Chen Qian frowned, his voice devoid of any emotion: "Why do you think I have the ability to save you, the Firethorns?"
"Please forgive me, senior. After you left Hidden Garden, Second Sister went to Thousand Machine Pavilion and purchased your information." Chi Qianliu lowered her body, her voice becoming much more muffled due to the reflection of the ground.
"Qianji Pavilion?" Although Chen Qian had never been in contact with this world before, he could guess the nature of this organization based on his common sense from his previous life and the fact that this ID was famous throughout the myriad worlds.
Being investigated is never pleasant, and Chi Qianliu knew that, so she quickly added, "It concerns the lives and fortunes of all the sisters in Huojingji, please forgive me, senior."
Chen Qian was inevitably a little annoyed, and he could understand the two women's thoughts and motives, but he still needed to ask them clearly.
"Get up! That Fairy Jing, is she your second mother? Tell me, what have you found out? And why are you so sure I can save you?"
"Yes." Chi Qianliu raised her head to answer more clearly, "Please allow me to reply, Senior."
Firethorns is the name of the organization founded by three orphaned daughters of the Jing family: Jing Lengyue, Jing Hanxing, and Jing Shuanghua, all of whom are legitimate daughters of the main branch of the Jing family.
More than 20 years ago, the Jing family was a famous and powerful family in the Li Kingdom. However, for some unknown reason, the Yao family wiped out the entire family overnight.
Jing Lengyue and Jing Hanxing are both Qi Refining cultivators, while Jing Shuanghua has not yet begun her cultivation.
The three women were not at the family's residence at the time and were fortunate enough to escape the calamity, but all their relatives perished.
Perhaps because they were all women with shallow cultivation, the Yao family did not pay too much attention to them and did not take the investigation seriously.
The three women lay low and, relying on the remaining resources of their family, advanced to the Foundation Establishment stage more than ten years later.
The third sister, Jing Shuanghua, possesses exceptional talent and has become the strongest of the three women. Her current cultivation level is already at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, surpassing the others.
After reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, the three sisters founded the Firethorns Sect and began secretly opposing the Yao family.
The three women practice the "Plain Girl Heart-to-Heart Technique," so the members recruited by the Fire Thorns are mainly women. To ensure loyalty, most of them are orphans of families persecuted by the Yao family, as well as some orphaned girls who have wandered the world.
For example, Chi Qianliu's Chi family was also destroyed by the Yao family, suffering the same fate as the Jing family.
The Yao family was the first family under the Beast Taming Sect. The Great Yao Dynasty they established ruled over almost all mortals within the Beast Taming Sect's sphere of influence.
As long as they do not cause mass deaths of mortals and prevent demonic beasts from wreaking havoc within their territory, and as long as they receive sufficient resources as tribute each year, the Beast Taming Sect does not strictly control them.
This allowed their power to grow ever larger, and they acted with impunity, committing countless atrocities.
Of course, the main victims were mostly cultivation families like the Jing and Chi families. They managed mortals with a lax approach and didn't care about them at all.
Firethorn's years of assassinations and plundering finally caught the attention of the Yao family, who discovered the location of their lair and almost wiped out all their key members.
The eldest sister, Jing Lengyue, was knocked down from her cultivation level, and the third sister, Jing Shuanghua, disappeared without a trace. Jing Lengyue and dozens of other orphaned girls under the age of fifteen were all sold into the Red Jade Pavilion by the Yao family.
Speaking of the Red Jade Pavilion, it is another powerful force that spans multiple domains. It specializes in training all kinds of women to be slaves, concubines, or furnaces for cultivation. It is said that as long as you can afford spirit stones, you can trade for Nascent Soul furnaces. The races of the women are all-encompassing, and it is famous far and wide.
But the fact that they have survived and thrived for thousands of years, and even grown stronger, shows just how terrifying their power is.
It can be said that since Jing Lengyue and the other orphans were sold into the Red Jade Pavilion, the only way to rescue them was to obediently pay up spirit stones; there was no other way.
The three daughters of the Jing family were quite knowledgeable and understood the principle of not putting all your eggs in one basket.
Therefore, the second sister, Jing Hanxing, never participated in the Fire Thorns' operations. She remained aloof, managing the Hidden Garden and providing resource support to the organization.
The Chi family had a past relationship with Tu Yuanfeng. After Chi Qianliu was adopted by him, she came to Wanling City. However, due to her poor spiritual root aptitude, she was unable to enter the Beast Taming Sect.
But Chi Qianliu was unwilling to be ordinary and chose to hone herself through constant death battles. Unexpectedly, although her spiritual root was not good, her fighting will and fighting instinct were extremely outstanding, which can be considered as her forging a bloody path of cultivation.
Through repeated trials of life and death, Chi Qianliu constantly broke through his limitations, and at a young age, he cultivated to the ninth level of Qi Refining, gaining a glimmer of hope to break through to Foundation Establishment.
However, the price of this kind of cultivation is unimaginable.
In Chen Qian's eyes, the fact that Chi Qianliu is still alive is already an anomaly.
