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

Chapter 4 World Embryo
Chen Qian, a native of the area, had no spiritual roots and no aptitude for cultivating immortality.

Things are completely different now.

That purple lightning changed everything.

The small, grayish bead in the sea of ​​consciousness was actually a world embryo that had grown naturally in the chaotic sea.

How it ended up in Chen Qian's ancestral home on Blue Star remains unknown.

Chen Qian was unable to communicate with it, but when he used his mind to touch it with questions, he could receive its feedback in the dark.

It wasn't a question-and-answer session; rather, the little gray bead projected relevant information onto him.

You can't just ask whatever you want and get the answer you want.

Instead, the information is given vaguely, requiring Chen Qian to summarize and deduce it.

So, through Chen Qian's constant probing and inquiries from various angles, he roughly figured out some of the changes that the little gray bead could bring him.

It's impossible to fully understand this issue given the current situation.

Chen Qian wasn't even a cultivator yet, and the little gray bead hadn't even started to grow.

We can only explore both together slowly.

Back on Earth, even after countless years, the spacetime level of Earth was too low, and the little gray bead was too far from the chaos to absorb even a trace of energy.

Upon arriving in this world of cultivation, the situation changed. For eighteen years, Little Gray Pearl used Chen Qian as a reference point to slowly accumulate chaotic energy, waiting for the moment to be reborn.

But this process is far too slow and takes an excessively long time.

Without this terrifyingly powerful lightning bolt, even when Chen Qian died of old age, he would never have been able to activate the little gray bead.

Therefore, misfortune may be the foundation of fortune.

With the activation of the small gray bead, Chen Qian, who was deeply bound to it by soul and intimately connected with it, also underwent initial physical transformation.

Although it was only a preliminary transformation, it gave him a physique that was unprecedented in this cultivation world: the Chaotic Spirit Body.

According to the information provided by the little gray bead, Chen Qian's cultivation will no longer face any bottlenecks, and he can expect to achieve immortality.

There was another piece of information that made him ecstatic: because the two were bound by souls, their lives were intertwined, so Chen Qian and Little Gray Pearl shared a lifespan.

How long can a world's lifespan be? It's unimaginable. In other words, Chen Qian has now achieved the lifespan of living as long as the heavens.

It instantly annihilated all the supreme beings in this world.

With this alone, Chen Qian has already broken free from the limitations of human lifespan, making him virtually immortal.

Of course, if he were to be forcefully killed by other cultivators now, he would still die.

At most, Little Gray Pearl can preserve a trace of his true spirit, allowing him to be reincarnated again.

However, he couldn't have all the advantages; there were still disadvantages. Chen Qian's realm advancement had to be accompanied by the growth of the Little Gray Pearl's world, complementing each other.

In other words, for others to improve their cultivation level, they only need to accumulate enough magical power to break through the bottleneck.

However, Chen Qian needs to help Little Gray Pearl grow up as soon as possible and gradually improve its status in the Gray Pearl World in order to reach the peak step by step.

It's terrifying to even think about; the resources required are simply enormous.

Clearly, relying solely on Chen Qian as an anchor point to slowly absorb chaotic energy is far from sufficient.

Chen Qian is still clueless about this.

Although the Gray Pearl World is of extremely high quality and has unlimited potential, it is currently far from even reaching the level of the lowest-level small world.

It can only be considered the smallest of the cave worlds. Apart from a few basic core components, there is nothing else inside; it is practically barren.

The body modification is still in progress, and information is being acquired, absorbed, and organized. Although he really wants to go inside the little gray bead to take a look, he can't do it yet.

This process should take about a day, and we'll soon be able to go inside and see the whole picture.

There's no use in being anxious now. Once his body is fully transformed, even though he doesn't currently possess the most basic cultivation techniques, he will passively complete the first stage of Qi induction and officially advance to become a Qi Refining stage cultivator.

Fortunately, Uncle Seven saw it when he was struck by lightning, and so did everyone else at the scene.

That way, I can explain why I, who have no spiritual roots, can suddenly cultivate immortality.

Chen Qian didn't need to say anything; he simply denied knowing anything and left it to his Uncle Qi to fill in the blanks.

Because the lightning in this world possesses magical power, any change that occurs after being struck by lightning and surviving can be explained.

………………

After daybreak, the caravan members saw Chen Qian awake. Apart from being a little pale, he was in good health, which amazed them.

Chen Qian was indeed in good condition. Although his physical transformation was not yet complete, he was only unable to use his true energy to fight others; his movements were unimpeded.

Chen Hongyuan naturally arranged for others to drive the lead carriage, the Green Scale Carriage, so that Chen Qian could sit and rest inside.

We have now left the Luoxia Mountains and are on a small plain at the mountain pass.

Although no one died in last night's battle, quite a few ordinary experts were injured.

The location was not far from the mountain pass, and with Chen Qian having such an incident, everyone naturally quickly cleaned up the battlefield and came to this small plain to rest for the night. Many people needed to rest.

It can be considered a blessing in disguise. So many wolf corpses, especially more than ten demon wolves that have reached the next level, their pelts alone are worth a lot of spirit stones.

That wolf king was even more extraordinary.

After all, it's a mid-grade first-tier demonic beast, with some bloodline from higher-tier demonic beasts. Wolf meat can nourish the body and has a body-strengthening effect. Wolf teeth, claws, and hide are all good materials for refining weapons.

It's worth at least a few dozen low-grade spirit stones.

In the world of cultivation, if you had to choose the most important resource, it would definitely be spirit stones.

Although spirit stones are very common, they are actually a manifestation of the underlying energy rules of this world.

Whether they are low-grade, mid-grade, or high-grade spirit stones, or even the legendary top-grade spirit stones that are almost impossible for low- to mid-level cultivators to see, they are all the same size and have similar shapes, looking like an irregular oval cylinder, much like a section of a human little finger bone.

Regardless of its grade, once the spiritual energy of a spirit stone is exhausted, it will turn into tiny powder and dissipate into the air, becoming invisible again.

No wonder most cultivators believe that spirit stones are actually without physical form; they only become physical objects because of the condensation of energy.

The air was very fresh after the rain, and the roads were much smoother, which significantly increased the speed of the caravan.

It's only a few dozen miles from here to Fenglin City, and we expect to arrive soon.

This trip only took about three months, but Chen Qian had already lived two lives.

Life's encounters are truly incredibly mysterious.

………………

Fenglin City is the largest city under the Chen family's rule, and also the only central city. The other dozens of scattered settlements of ordinary people are only towns, with a population of only tens of thousands. The smaller settlements can only be called villages, with only a few hundred or a thousand people.

The population of Fenglin City is nearly 500,000, almost half of the total population under the jurisdiction.

These millions of people form the core of the Chen family in Fengling Valley. The proportion of people with the surname Chen is very high, and many of them trace their ancestry back several generations to a single ancestor.

As long as these people are there, they can continuously inject fresh blood into the Chen family and give birth to new cultivators.

Chen Qian, a native of the city, has lived here for six years.

It can certainly be described as extremely familiar.

But for Chen Qian, who had regained his memories of his past life, this was the first time he had seen this magnificent city with his own eyes.

Even though he had a very deep impression of this city in his memory, Chen Qian couldn't help but applaud and admire it.
