Cultivating Immortality in a Family: I Prove Immortality Through the Chaotic Dao Realm

Chapter 231 The Hometown of the Phoenix! The Seven Domains of the Eastern Abyss! Kunwu Immortal Sect!
What kind of miraculous elixir is this, with such effects?!
Chen Hongbing peered inside and saw a ruby-like pill in the jade bottle, with a vast amount of vital energy visible to the naked eye circulating within it.

Chen Hongbing naturally had no idea that this was a Qi and Blood Pill infused with a trace of Kunpeng essence.

The Kunpeng Demon Core, stimulated by the blood of the old sacred beast of the Beast Taming Sect, was slightly revived, allowing the Fate Wheel Realm to collect a few strands of the scattered blood essence. Chen Qian refined them into Qi and Blood Pills, making the quantity extremely rare.

He originally planned to take the Great Pill after the five internal organs of the second-stage body refinement stage were completed, which would give him a good chance of pushing his body refinement cultivation to a higher level.

Now that Chen Hongbing is spending so much money on gifts, he reluctantly gave him one.

It should be noted that to stimulate the Kunpeng demon core to revive, at least fourth-order or higher spiritual blood is required.

Fourth-tier spirit blood is no ordinary commodity; even with his current supernatural powers, it would be difficult for him to obtain it.

With the aid of this enhanced Qi and Blood Pill, Chen Hongbing's advancement to the mid-Foundation Establishment stage is a foregone conclusion.

Upon hearing Chen Qian say that this pill alone could reduce the difficulty of constructing the Essence Seat by at least 50%, Chen Hongbing immediately believed it.

joke!

The moment he saw the pill, he felt that the essence contained within it seemed to be even more abundant than the essence of his entire body.

This is absolutely a miracle drug!

As for the jade slip, it was of course the Blood Qi Nourishing Yuan Technique deduced by Chen Qian, which was also extremely useful to Chen Hongbing.

Chen Hongbing never expected that he, who was just feeling extremely distressed, would be so overwhelmed with happiness in such a short time.

These items would be more efficient and better suited to his needs than the combination of Nine Peaks Jade Marrow, allowing him to advance to the intermediate Foundation Establishment stage!
Chen Hongbing thanked him profusely and took his leave.

Only Chen Qian and Old Ancestor Chen remained in the cave.

At this moment, Old Master Chen's expression was quite interesting, showing a mix of nostalgia, sighs, and reflections.

Chen Qian didn't try to guess what he was thinking.

In truth, Old Ancestor Chen was lamenting that if there had been someone like Chen Qian in the clan when he first advanced to the Foundation Establishment stage, his cultivation path might have been far more advanced than it is now.

At this moment, Chen Qian was thinking that he should go and pay a visit to Senior Yan Ling.

Let's learn more about the story behind the Kunwu Order.

Before taking his leave, he also gave Chen Ruiang a spirit deer and the Blood Qi Nourishing Technique.

Because he had just observed Old Ancestor Chen and discovered that the Old Ancestor's second-level Dao foundation was constructed as a soul seat.

Therefore, we should also prepare a set of these resources that are of great help in improving physical health for the elderly.

As the only Foundation Establishment cultivator in the family for many years, the old man's physical essence had been depleted due to years of hard work and battles, which was why he had been unable to advance to the late Foundation Establishment stage.

Given the old man's current age, he has at least another hundred years of good life ahead of him. With proper care, he might even have the hope of continuing to advance in his spiritual journey.

Watching Chen Qian's departing figure, Chen Ruiang was somewhat dazed.

Is this... meant to take care of the younger generation?
It's been so many years... I haven't experienced this feeling of being cared for.

……

Xuanming Pagoda.

Inside a mysterious space within the tower.

At the center, there is a huge bird's nest woven from countless magical herbs.

This is clearly the "boudoir" of the phoenix.

Chen Qian had been to Xuanming Tower several times, but this was the first time a phoenix had taken her to her room.

Just like when Chen Qian exchanged the Broken Cauldron Cave Heaven, the Fire Phoenix gracefully circled around Chen Qian a few times, its bright eyes sparkling as if it were reassessing Chen Qian's strength.

"You are very good." The phoenix's clear, childlike voice finally rang out. "I thought it would be a great blessing if you could achieve the Core Formation realm within two hundred years."

Her long neck moved with incredible dexterity. "I never expected this! I really underestimated you!"

Chen Qian: "Hehe, lucky luck."

“No need to be modest. What has caught your eye this time?” Phoenix rolled its eyes at Chen Qian. “Anything you can use is welcome.”

Chen Qian reclaimed the ancestral homeland of the Qianlong Mountain family, and the phoenix had already decided to reward him with a million in contributions.

Now that he has broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage, his potential has been recognized by the Phoenix, who regards him as the family's number one and the hope for the future.

How much they have contributed is no longer important.

"Let's not rush this," Chen Qian said with a smile. "Senior, what is this?"

With a flick of his wrist, he retrieved the Kunwu Token that he had obtained from Master Liefeng.

"This is... the Kunwu Token!" Even the usually composed Phoenix Bird's expression changed drastically in an instant.

"That's right!" Seeing the phoenix's strong reaction, Chen Qian knew that this thing was indeed of great importance and must be hiding a big secret.

“I’ve noticed that you’ve been encouraging your clansmen to search for the Kunwu Token during clan missions,” Chen Qian said. “What is the purpose of this token?”

The phoenix remained silent for a long time before speaking, its tone ethereal and filled with reminiscence.

A soft, low voice contained information that caught Chen Qian completely off guard.

“The Kunwu Order comes from the Kunwu Immortal Palace, which is my hometown.”

Chen Qian: "Ah? So you're not from the area surrounding Li Kingdom... Feng?"

The phoenix replied matter-of-factly, "How could such a noble celestial phoenix be born in such a barren and desolate place?"

Chen Qian: "Uh..."

Phoenix: "Very well. You have unparalleled luck and talent, and you have also obtained the Kunwu Token. Although you have not yet formed your core, I can still tell you these secrets."

Then, the phoenix began to recount the details of the Kunwu Decree.

"Kunwu Immortal Sect is the number one immortal sect in the Eastern Abyss. Kunwu Immortal Palace is a complete small world, inhabited by hundreds of millions of mortals and cultivators. At the center of the world is Kunwu Immortal Mountain."

As the phoenix narrated, the vast and boundless Eastern Abyss cultivation world finally unveiled a corner of its veil before Chen Qian, shaking his mind and soul.

Although the Eastern Abyss Continent is so vast that it cannot be counted, the Ancestral Dragon Mountain Range, which stretches for hundreds of millions of miles in the center of the continent, occupies more than 70% of the entire continent's area.

The combined size of all seven domains of the Eastern Abyss is only about 30% of the size of the Ancestral Dragon Mountain Range.

The Zulong Mountains are so vast, yet they are almost entirely under the control of demonic beasts and orcs.

This demonstrates the immense power and strength of the demon beasts and orcs.

Not to mention, within the Seven Domains, there are still countless desolate swamps and wastelands, places where humans have disappeared.

Therefore, all human kingdoms in Dongyuan, regardless of whether they are ruled by orthodox sects, demonic cults, or Buddhist ghost realms, take the policy of opening up new lands and eliminating demons, striving to create more living space for humankind.

Even if internal strife among humans is inevitable, it will never escalate to the point of massacring entire nations and exterminating entire clans.

In the case of the Li Kingdom and several surrounding countries, the once-in-a-century invasions by the Demon Alliance mostly consisted of plundering resources and people.

After all, most demonic cultivators are not good at management and are highly dependent on resources. In order to maintain their dominance, they have long been accustomed to the sect-establishing style of "stirring up trouble and plundering everywhere".

A century is more than enough time for the Li Kingdom and its surrounding countries to recover. They can also serve as a training ground for each other, keeping the lower-level independent cultivators and immortal cultivation families constantly aware of potential dangers.

As the human kingdom continued to expand and conquer new territories, many monsters and beastmen also slaughtered and destroyed human cities and kingdoms.

For example... not long ago, there was the Kingdom of Guiluo.

But overall, orcs are the mortal enemies of humans; they are more aggressive.
Most demonic beasts are concerned with their own survival and development and do not aim to exterminate the human race. However, it is not easy for orcs to leave the Ancestral Dragon Mountains.

Although the Zulong Mountain Range is vast, it is not accessible from every direction. There are only seven passages, each connecting to one of the seven domains of the Eastern Abyss.

The seven domains are: Dragon Head Domain, Dragon Horn Domain, Dragon Neck Domain, Dragon Back Domain, Dragon Belly Domain, Dragon Claw Domain, and Dragon Tail Domain.

Each passageway is guarded by the most powerful forces from all regions of the human race.

The strongest of the seven domains, the Dragon Head Domain, is guarded by the Kunwu Sect!
This demonstrates the immense power of the Kunwu Immortal Sect!
One sect can control an entire region!
The Kunwu Immortal Palace, this magnificent minor world, is the last remaining foundation of the Eastern Abyss human race!

Even if the defenses of all regions are breached, and orcs and monsters are able to ravage the entire Eastern Abyss region, Kunwu Immortal Palace can still preserve the last spark of humanity.

In addition to this most important mission, Kunwu Immortal Palace also uses its supreme divine power to continuously issue Kunwu Decrees to recruit promising cultivators from the entire Eastern Abyss Seven Domains for training, thereby enhancing the strength of the human race in each domain.

Anyone who obtains the Kunwu Token and whose strength reaches a certain threshold can be teleported to Kunwu Immortal Mountain for trials.

Those who participate in the trial receive rewards based on the number of challenges they overcome on Kunwu Immortal Mountain; outstanding individuals may even be accepted into the Kunwu Immortal Sect.

This... is the true function of the Kunwu Decree.

……

After hearing this information, Chen Qian's head was buzzing.

He had long anticipated that the Kunwu Order was extraordinary, but he could never have imagined that it had such a terrifying background.

The number one immortal sect in the Eastern Abyss!

A transcendent existence that governs an entire region!

Moreover, it was able to distribute the Kunwu Token to such a vast area as the entire Eastern Abyss, bringing blessings to countless cultivators.

"Senior, how do we activate this Kunwu Token?"

After a long pause, Chen Qian asked in a low voice.

He was quite shocked to receive such a shocking message all at once.

The world is so vast, and there are so many unknown dangers.

It's not time to be complacent and stagnant.

Of course, he certainly won't participate in this so-called trial right away, but he needs to gather some information first, in case it comes in handy someday.

“No special activation is needed.” The phoenix swayed its beautiful long neck and said, “As long as you condense a mid-grade True Core, the Kunwu Token will automatically activate when it absorbs the aura of your True Core.”

"Until then, you just need to keep the token safe."

Chen Qian exclaimed in astonishment, "Doesn't that mean that once I advance to the Core Formation stage, I'll be teleported away immediately?"

Phoenix rolled its eyes and said reproachfully, "The Kunwu Sect isn't a bandit group, why would they act like this?"

"Whether or not you wish to be teleported away to undergo the trial will require your confirmation and consent."

“A thousand years ago, Tu Yuan participated in a trial at the Immortal Mountain. Because he possessed the bloodline of the Heavenly Phoenix, we became acquainted at Kunwu Immortal Mountain.”

"Unfortunately, he only passed the first three trials and gained little."

"And the Heavenly Phoenix bloodline in his body has no offspring to inherit it."

Chen Qian listened quietly, gaining a deeper understanding of his ancestor from a thousand years ago.

He should be considered a prodigy, right? It's a pity he's not outstanding enough.

Compared to this Venerable Master, hehe, they are definitely far inferior.

He smacked his lips, his mind wandering.

After complaining about its former master, the phoenix stared intently at Chen Qian.

Chen Qian felt a little uneasy under her gaze.

What's wrong with that look?

Chen Qian quickly asked, "Does Senior have any further instructions?"

After a moment of contemplation, the phoenix said, "Come find me when you have formed your core. I have important matters to discuss with you."

"Uh~" Chen Qian nodded and said, "Okay, no problem."

He had a vague idea about the phoenix.

It must be related to his participation in the trials of Kunwu Immortal Mountain, but he is still far from forming his core, and he doesn't want to investigate too much for the time being.

"Oh, right," Chen Qian said, flipping his hand to take out two glittering talismans and handing them to the phoenix.

These were the small teleportation talisman and the Crimson Shadow Flowing Light Sword Talisman that the phoenix had given him for self-defense.

Both of these treasures are third-tier items, but they are no longer of much help to him.

With a casual strike of the Myriad Streams Returning to the Edge Sword, he possessed the power of a sword talisman;
The teleportation fruit that grows on the Xuan Tian Sacred Tree of Tai Chu Peak is even more powerful than the Lesser Teleportation Talisman, and can also specify a specific direction.

Therefore, I will not take advantage of the family.

It might still come in handy someday if left in the secret vault.

Leaving it on him would be a complete waste unless he sold it for spirit stones.

"You no longer need these two treasures?" The phoenix was a little unsettled. "It seems you're very confident in your current abilities and combat power!"

"A little, a little. Hehe~" What else could Chen Qian say?
Saying any more would be self-aggrandizement.

However, before leaving, he asked the phoenix for the mid-grade magic treasure in the third level of the secret vault—the Nine Aperture Soul-Breaking Bell.

This rare type of magical artifact is extremely difficult to refine, and the materials are hard to find. Although he cannot refine or use it in the short term, he can ask Aka to help analyze and study its structure.

If he could gain some insight from this, it would be of great help to both him and Xiao Yin, and would accelerate the progress of deducing the second level of the Profound Yin Refining God Technique.

……

After bidding farewell to the phoenix, Chen Qian left the Xuanming Tower.

Thanks to him, the family's territory has grown larger, and many elders have gone out to oversee things, leaving few high-ranking members in the valley.

However, the Sixth Elder, who was purely a support talent, remained in Fenglin Valley.

The Sixth Elder and Chen Qian were old acquaintances. In the early stages of Chen Qian's cultivation, the Sixth Elder had even given him saplings of spirit fruit trees and seeds of spirit herbs.

Now that he was back, Chen Qian naturally paid a visit to the old man and gave him some elixirs and medicines to help him recover.

I spent the night with my wife at the main house and had a good chat with my father-in-law about the future development of the family.

This also reassured his father-in-law that he had already made arrangements for the bet with the Wang family.

When the time comes, the Wang family will understand that the Chen family is not the Lu family, and they cannot be trifled with!
The following day, Mr. and Mrs. Chen bid farewell to Chen Hongming and prepared to return to Qianlong Mountain. At this time, there were only a few days left before the Foundation Building and Joint Ceremony.

Before parting, Chen Qian gave Chen Hongming several pairs of Qingfeng Spirit Deer cubs, asking him to arrange for them to be raised.

If these deer are raised well, they can become a major family business, generating a steady stream of income.

The deer milk produced later can also be used as a family benefit, provided to senior members for health maintenance.
