My path to immortality began with my posting to guard Dawancun.

Chapter 212 Mutation
"Heh, what kind of bullshit young master Shen is he? He runs away faster than a mouse when trouble comes."

Qi Family Treasury

Dark corners,
The eldest elder of the Qi family clutched his bleeding chest and struggled to his feet, leaning against the crumbling wall.

At this moment, his disheveled, blood-stained, and wretched face...
It was all laced with sarcasm.

They originally intended to sacrifice more than half of their family wealth to gain protection, and then use the Shen family's name to ensure the family's continuation.

At least this will prevent the Qi family from being completely wiped out after all the high-end forces have been destroyed.

But he never expected that,

That arrogant guy, who looks down on everyone, is all talk and no action, but he shouts his slogans the loudest.
As soon as someone showed up, they ran faster than a rabbit!
Qi Jia

It's over!
Ignore that all-knowing guy.
The eldest elder of the Qi family let out a long sigh.

He is very clear,

Having lost that last refuge, and facing the siege of three powerful forces, the Qi family could no longer continue to exist.

Even those who retain even a trace of the Qi family bloodline will be hunted down by them!

Cut the weeds and eliminate the roots; wipe them out completely!
This left him with a complex mix of emotions.

In his youth,
That ancestor is still alive.

He experienced the most prosperous period of the Qi family.

At that time,
The Qi family's reputation for transcending physical limitations has earned them submission and reverence from all directions.

The Qi family members went out,

They were all superior to others, and were revered and looked up to by countless eyes around them.

Among those lowly people, as long as they can kneel down and say a few words in front of the Qi family, and play the clown to make the Qi family laugh, it is an honor they can boast about for a lifetime!

That was the ancestor's birthday.

Even the renowned cultivation families within Qingcheng sent people to celebrate.

Those renowned cultivators in the outside world, who practically look down on everyone, are rumored to be the most promising Qi Induction prodigies to advance to the Nascent Soul stage.

They must all suppress their pride, stand before the ancestor, bow low, smile, and say all the kind words they can.
that time,
The Wolf Fang Gang, the Mountain Alliance, and the White Cloud Sect are nothing more than dogs under the Qi family's command.

They were just one of the many dogs in the Qi family.

There are even more dogs.

He had already killed the ancestor before he passed away.

The family property and assets were all incorporated into the family business by the ancestor, becoming the foundation for supporting the growth of future generations.

It was also because their three families were located far enough away that they knelt down quickly enough, giving almost all of their inheritance to the Qi family and handing over more than 80% of their income each year.
This finally extinguished the patriarch's murderous intent. He merely found an excuse to kill a few Qi Refining Ninth Level cultivators within their forces as a warning.

That's why it has survived.

These three families, back when their patriarch was still alive and the Qi family was at its peak...
What does it even amount to?
They are nothing more than the descendants of a few lowly people who survived by kneeling quickly enough!

It's a pity.

The old ancestor ultimately misjudged the situation.

Those lowly scoundrels, more servile than dogs, are all wolves in sheep's clothing, constantly plotting their revenge.

As a result, the calamities left over from that time have led to the Qi family's annihilation on this day.

Do not,
Perhaps the ancestor also knew that those three lowly families harbored treacherous intentions and were actually ungrateful. That's why he casually found an excuse to kill those cultivators at the ninth level of their forces, so that the Qi family could have three docile dogs with their teeth pulled out to keep them in check.

Perhaps our ancestors believed in the wisdom of their descendants, that they could properly manage those three dogs.

After all, most of the threatening cultivators at the ninth level of the cultivation realm had been killed.

Their legacy is also firmly in the hands of the Qi family.

Locked tightly with iron chains,

So what if you harbor resentment?

"Your idea was very good and thoughtful, but unfortunately, your descendants are unworthy!"

Numerous memories flashed through his mind, and the First Elder of the Qi family sighed.
He was panting heavily, and leaning against the wall, he made his way step by step through the dark passage, slowly walking deeper into the darkness.

My vision is getting a little blurry.

Since the death of the patriarch, without his suppression, the family has been embroiled in power struggles and has fallen apart.
What's even more problematic is that the one who rose to power through compromise among various internal factions was a man of great ambition but little talent, easily swayed by others to turn against the Wu family.
This resulted in heavy losses for themselves and also freed those three companies from their constraints.
Who can blame this?

It's only because these descendants lived too smoothly and comfortably under the protection of their ancestors.

Even after their ancestor passed away, they maintained the arrogance of a powerful clan that had reached the Nascent Soul stage, continuing to look down on others with disdain, never lowering themselves to see the world for what it was like, forgetting the cruelty of the cultivation world.
Until he came to his senses,
But it was all too late.

The eldest elder of the Qi family dragged his heavily injured body as he struggled to walk through the dark passage.

In the silent passage, only the soft sound of his footsteps echoed.

Scenes from the past flashed through his mind like a revolving lantern.

There was the magnificent scene of the road being paved with silk and gold threads for miles when the ancestor celebrated his birthday; there was the sorrow after the ancestor passed away; and there was the power struggle between various factions within the family.
in his life,
Having witnessed the Qi family's rise from its most prosperous days to its decline and now its imminent demise, he has experienced far too much.

In the end,

There wasn't much fear of death.
Perhaps they've had enough of living.

but,
He was able to face death with equanimity.
However, it is absolutely impossible for them to calmly face the destruction of the Qi family, especially being devoured and destroyed by those three dog-like creatures!

Overwhelming resentment sustained his shattered body, allowing him to force his way here.

[Hehehe, looks like you've made up your mind!]

A chilling voice came from the depths of darkness, carrying a sinister stench.

It makes one feel as if they are facing a dark and cold underworld, where countless vengeful spirits struggle in pain, and their bodies tremble involuntarily!
"Indeed, I have made my decision!"

"Since our ancestor entered the world of cultivation and established the family line, the Qi family has been passed down in an orderly manner for 421 years. Along the way, we have even produced a Nascent Soul Ancestor. How can we just disappear in obscurity like this?!"

"Hahaha, let's go cause a huge ruckus!"

"Let them be buried with my entire family!"

The eldest elder of the Qi family laughed maniacally, reaching his hand towards an iron door at the end of the darkness.
With a sudden exertion, the barely maintained seal snapped like the last straw that broke the camel's back!

Boom! ! !

in an instant,
The iron gate shattered with a crash.

The endless black tide surged out like a flood, almost instantly engulfing the Qi family's Grand Elder!
Almost instantly,
The body of the Qi family's eldest elder withered away in the black tide, like a mummy that had been weathered for thousands of years, all its vitality drained away, and finally turned into dust and disappeared into the sky.

Until consciousness fades,
He heard a faint sound echoing in the darkness:
As you wish.
