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

Chapter 45 Inside the Xuan Kong Tower! Family Heroic Spirits!
After verifying the bloodline, the phoenix opened its beak, and three drops of amber-colored spiritual liquid flew out and floated in front of Chen Qian—

"Essence of the earth's veins, to help you build your foundation."

This is a spiritual liquid condensed from the earth's energy absorbed by the Fire Phoenix Cry Array over many years. Its greatest function is to protect the soul and strengthen the meridians.

The essence of the earth veins contains pure spiritual power, which can help improve the success rate of Foundation Establishment to some extent. But more importantly, it protects the soul and meridians during the Foundation Establishment process. Even if Foundation Establishment fails, it will not cause serious damage to one's vital energy or a decline in cultivation.

The reward will only be given if the candidate's qualifications are recognized by the Flame Feather Phoenix.

The old man behind him was dumbfounded. You have to know that Chen Ruiang back then and Chen Yunyi a few years ago only received a drop.

This elixir isn't actually very useful to Chen Qian personally, but he's destined to have a lot of wings and children in the future, so the more the better.

Chen Qian bowed in thanks, took out a jade bottle, and put three drops of spiritual liquid into it.

"Okay, come in!"

With a flap of his giant wings, Flame Feather vanished from the void.

Inside the Xuan Kong Pagoda.

Chen Qian appeared in the lobby on the first floor.

Chen Qian was familiar with this feeling; it was somewhat similar to when he traveled into the Gray Pearl World, both being effects of void teleportation.

At this moment, Yan Ling was not beside Chen Qian, but its clear, cold female voice echoed from the void:
"You have family-level privileges. As long as your contribution is sufficient, you can exchange for any item."

"Okay, I'm going back to sleep now. Just call me when you want to go out."

After saying that, before Chen Qian could respond, Yan Ling had already disappeared into silence.

Chen Qian had already learned about the exchange rules of the family's secret vault, so he had no doubts.

Level 1 access means you can exchange for everything on all three levels of the tower, as long as you have enough contribution points;
Level 2 access means you can only redeem items from the first or second tier.
Level 3 access only allows you to redeem items from the first level.

The rules are simple and clear, but the biggest limitation is actually the contribution points.

Most of the items on the third floor come from the family's first ancestor, Tu Yuan Gong. The contribution points required are often hundreds of thousands or even millions. Being able to obtain such a high number of contribution points proves that you have made a great contribution to the family. How could you not have level one access?
As expected of a space-type magic treasure, the Xuan Kong Pagoda only appears to be a few dozen feet tall and about ten feet wide from the outside.

But now that he was inside, Chen Qian found the space to be enormous, and he couldn't see the tower walls at all.

The most eye-catching feature on the first floor is the dozens of stone tablets standing in the center, which are far more captivating than the countless wooden shelves and stone platforms around it, and the various glittering exchange items on them.

Chen Qian also went to the center first to examine the contents of the stone tablet.

A broken sword was stuck in front of the first stone tablet, with some faint grayish-brown blocky marks still remaining on it. The broken sword was also covered with rust, indicating that a very long time had passed.

Before his fingertips even touched the surface of the monument, he felt a sharp sword aura rush towards him—"Clang!"

The rusty broken sword suddenly trembled, and the dried blood scabs on the blade began to seep out specks of scarlet, as if it had just drunk blood.

The top of the stele bears five large characters: Stele of the Chen Family Heroes.

The inscription is as if carved by a knife and axe:
"Chen Daoming | The Seventh Generation Main Lineage"

<Foundation Building Perfection><Sword Slaying Three Demons>
To protect Fenglin City, he fought three top-tier second-order demonic beasts alone, battling for three days in Luoxia Mountain. When his sword broke, he used his bones as blades to slaughter all the demons before dying from exhaustion.

At the last moment, he bit off the tip of his tongue, condensing all his sword energy into a blood rainbow, which pierced through the head of the last demon beast.

Despite its age, the broken sword still exudes a fierce aura that has remained for ages.

The second stone tablet was the same style as the first one. In front of the tablet was a tattered suit of armor, which was so badly damaged that it was unrecognizable.

The inscription records:

"Chen Yu-Lin | Ninth Generation Main Lineage"

<Early Foundation Building Stage><Dominating the Beast Horde>
During the pioneering battle, she covered the retreat of the clan's Qi Refining disciples and leaped alone into the beast tide.

Her armor was torn apart by sharp teeth, and her beautiful soul was destroyed in the jaws of beasts. Her figure, who stood alone against millions, paved the way for the survival of her people.

…………

The seventh stone tablet has half a broken arm in front of it.

The inscription is weathered yet sharp:
"Chen Yuanchao | Twelfth Generation Han Character Branch" <Qi Refining Perfection><Thunder Shakes the Netherworld>
When the Demon Alliance invaded and demonic cultivators ran rampant, in order to cover the retreat of his family members, he provoked Tian Leizi to perish together with a Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Yin Gui Sect, leaving him with only a severed limb and half an arm.

He sacrificed himself to feed the demon in the netherworld, and his roar still resounds to this day!
…………

Chen Qian was deeply moved as he read through the exhibits.

Over a thousand years, through countless years, countless members of the Chen family have given their last drop of blood for the survival of their clan and the lives of their people.

Most of them met a tragic end, their bodies never recovered, leaving only their heroic souls scattered across this vast and boundless world.

There was no wind inside the tower, yet Chen Qian's robes fluttered in the wind.

He gently stroked each stele, and the rusty swords, broken armor, and fragmented bones suddenly trembled in resonance, emitting a buzzing sound like the clash of swords and the thunder of horses.

In a daze, he saw—

Chen Daoming stood up, leaning on his broken sword, with the bustling city of Fenglin behind him.

Chen Yulian smiled gently, waved goodbye to her people, and turned to rush towards the beast tide;

Lightning crackled in Chen Yuanchao's hand as he charged towards the demons, laughing maniacally...

Chen Qian stood before the monuments and bowed deeply, thinking to himself, "Perhaps in this life I have also received the kindness of you all... The spirits of heroes are silent, but their noble spirit endures forever!"
Perhaps one day, I will be able to gather your scattered souls back together and bring them back to life in my world.

Let's get down to business.

The items available for exchange on the first tier are mostly within the Qi Refining stage.

Elixirs, talismans, magical artifacts, array plates...

Black Iron Stone, Lightning-Struck Wood, Yin-Yang Water, Blazing Sun Stone, Purple Blood Soil...

Tier 1 puppets, Bloodfire Ant nests, Black Corrosion Poison Arrows, monster corpses...

Low-grade spirit stones, mid-grade spirit stones...

It is all-inclusive and has everything you need.

Among them, Chen Qian selected the gifts to give to Su Jin: a mid-grade magic weapon, the Flying Immortal Hairpin, and a first-tier mid-grade magic robe, which required 50 and 120 contribution points respectively.

I also saw two Earth Escape Talismans, one of which costs 95 contribution points to exchange.

Chen Qian saw many items he wanted to exchange for, but his contribution points were limited, so he had to look at everything before making a final decision.

Upon reaching the second level, there are far fewer items available, as they are mostly at the Foundation Establishment level.

Compared to the numerous and categorized items on the first floor, the display here is much more streamlined—each item is suspended in an independent glass dome, with unique spiritual energy patterns flowing across its surface.

Azure Sky Sword, Black Tortoise Shield, Silver Light Boat, Puppet Core, Purple Gold Pill Furnace, Heavenly Fire Mystic Light Liquid, Jade Purity Ice Heart Pill, Ice Soul Sealing Demon Talisman, White Jade Blood Spider Egg...

Chen Qian also saw a simplified version of the fourth-order formation, the Five Elements Reversal Formation – the Small Five Elements Formation.

The required contribution points for the exchange are a whopping 5000, which is more than I have in my entire savings.

There was another talisman that greatly appealed to Chen Qian—the Mountain-Penetrating Talisman!

The grade is Tier 2, Low Grade, and the exchange rate is 300 contribution points.

It's worth considering, but to activate it, one must possess the divine sense power of the late stage of Qi Refining. I wonder if one's divine sense power can reach that level after advancing to the fourth level of Qi Refining.

Many things here broadened Chen Qian's horizons and increased his knowledge. After all, his current level was too low, and he rarely came into contact with second-tier items. It was good for him to see something new.

After walking around, Chen Qian rubbed his hands together and went up to the third floor, feeling quite expectant. He wondered what kind of collection Tu Yuangong had.
The third floor was even simpler, empty except for a long, rectangular jade table placed in the center.

On the table were eight colorful glass domes, three of which were empty, and in each of the remaining five domes, an item was slowly rotating.

Next to each light shield is a jade slip containing information about the treasure.

Chen Qian walked slowly from left to right, looking at each person one by one.
