Starting Immortal Cultivation from a White Dog

"Kuafu's true blood... the Heavenly Pillar..."

Wu Tian felt the immense power within his body, so different from anything he had ever experienced before, and the towering divine pillar totem in his mind that seemed to support his entire existence.

The cultivation of aristocratic families differs from that of ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators, especially those with extremely ancient bloodlines, who condense not a Nascent Soul, but a divine or demonic totem.

A totem is essentially the primordial spirit.

Of course, Wu Tian's current divine and demonic totem can also be called the Dutian Yuanshen, and there is no difference in essence.

After condensing the totem, the divine power he awakened, the Heavenly Pillar, reached the twelfth rank. Its power far surpassed the previous three divine power seeds, and its mysteries were even greater.

On a whim, he opened the system panel.

Name: Wu Tian

Age: 23
Realm: Primordial Spirit/Demon King
Taoist practice: 1680 years

Bloodline: Kuafu True Bloodline/Huodou Bloodline/Wind Mother Bloodline (switchable)
Supernatural Powers: Heavenly Pillar (1200), Mars Destiny (1680)
Seed of Supernatural Power: Sun and Moon Celestial Wheel, Grade 5 (99%)

Advanced Talents: 99% Clairvoyance, 99% Sun and Moon Blade
(Note: The current manifestation of the True Blood of the Heavenly Blazing Fire, the Bloodline of the Calamity Fighter, and the Bloodline of the Wind Mother are unavailable.)

Kuafu True Blood: It can be traced back to the ancient bloodline of the innate god and demon Kuafu. It is naturally in harmony with the sun and time, and can condense god and demon totems. It can withstand being hit by swords and axes, and can survive being torn apart by five horses. As long as the totem is extinguished, the true body will not die.

The Divine Pillar of Dutian: A divine power born from the true blood of Kuafu. The pillar reaches the heavens and possesses the divine power of Dutian. It can suppress time and walk on light.

Wu Tian carefully studied the system panel. Now that he had mastered the Sun Chasing Light Scripture, he had broken through to the Nascent Soul realm. The Divine Demon Totem was equivalent to the Nascent Soul, which was the foundation of his life.

As long as the totem exists, the true form will never die.

In particular, the power of the Heavenly Pillar is extremely terrifying, directly suppressing time and granting the user unparalleled divine power and the speed to walk on light.

To be honest, if Ancestor Yuyang had possessed such supernatural powers, he would never have been able to launch a sneak attack on his opponent back then.

Even the Immortal Binding Rope probably couldn't do anything to him.

As long as the Heavenly Pillar suppresses time, any sneak attacks or ambushes are a joke, and even the Immortal Binding Rope will be directly suppressed by the pillar.

"The gap between Yuan Shen True Persons is really too great, especially this kind of supernatural power that can involve time. Whether it is the Tongtian Dharma Eye that I condensed before, or the Dutian Divine Pillar now, they are far beyond the comparison of ordinary supernatural powers."

"Even if it is a Mars-related destiny, it is no match for the Heavenly Pillar now."

Moreover, he had a strange feeling that if he, a being who had condensed a divine and demonic totem, were to perish, his blood essence and even the totem would probably not turn into magic beads like ordinary aristocratic cultivators.

Instead, they will be drawn back to some mysterious place by an invisible force...

"Could it be the legendary Dutian Prefecture?" Wu Tian wondered to himself.

Now that he has condensed the totem using the "Chasing the Sun and Treading the Light Sutra", he has a clearer understanding of the cultivation path of the aristocratic family.

Not all disciples of the Lu family are able to condense the true blood of Kuafu and refine the divine and demonic totem after cultivating their primordial spirit.

The bloodline of aristocratic disciples is innate, and it is almost impossible to increase the concentration of their bloodline through acquired means.

Those disciples of the Lu family who possess the true blood of the Heavenly Blazing Fire are simply unable to visualize the "Kuafu Chasing the Sun" painting and cultivate the divine and demonic totem. Their highest achievement is often only the Primordial Spirit True Person.

Only those whose bloodline has returned to its ancestral form, and who awaken the existence of Kuafu's true blood from birth, can cultivate the "Chasing the Sun and Treading on Light Scripture".

This is precisely why the Lu family has such a severe generational gap. Once no descendants are able to awaken the true blood of Kuafu, they can at most cultivate to the level of a Nascent Soul True Person.

Those descendants who awaken the true blood of Kuafu, cultivate the Sun Chasing Light Scripture, and awaken the Heavenly Pillar, are undoubtedly the overlords of their time, capable of dominating their respective regions.

Wu Tian also used the system panel to condense the true blood of Kuafu, which enabled him to have this opportunity.

He glanced again at the seeds of supernatural abilities and talents such as the Sun and Moon Heavenly Wheel, the Thousand-Mile Eye, and the Sun and Moon Heavenly Blade. In fact, he had already broken through to the next level in these three supernatural abilities and talents.

But he had other plans, especially after obtaining the "Sun Chasing Light Scripture," he was confident that he could refine it into the supernatural power of time.

However, I still need to gain some insights...

"Don't rush to sharpen your axe, or you'll miss the chance to chop wood."

Just then, the divine seal between his brows warmed slightly. With a thought, he felt that all the energy in the world was suppressed by his own totem, allowing him to clearly sense the information around him.

"Humph!"

Wu Tian couldn't help but let out a cold snort. Under the suppression of the totem, he could clearly sense the gazes and divine thoughts above the Lu family's ancestral home, some bright and some dark, each carrying various emotions.

Cultivators from various factions were spying on the Lu family ancestral hall using all sorts of supernatural powers and magical treasures. Their gazes were filled with astonishment, greed, and murderous intent, and there was even an aura of demons among them.

Wu Tian's eyes turned slightly cold as he took a step forward.

The divine and demonic totems flowed and evolved into the form of the Heavenly Pillar. The flow of time around him seemed to suddenly slow down, and all things in heaven and earth seemed to be trapped in viscous amber.

Golden light naturally emanated from beneath his feet, transforming into a solid golden rainbow bridge that transcended spatial distance, with one end beneath his feet and the other extending into the sky above the ancestral home.

Taking this step felt like walking on light.

One step to the sky!
Before the cultivators who were spying could react, Wu Tian's figure had already appeared above the Lu family's ancestral home, standing in mid-air with his robes fluttering without wind.

He did not speak, but with a slight thought, he communicated with the divine seal between his eyebrows, activating the majestic Heavenly Pillar totem within his body.

"Buzz!"

A vast, ancient, and profound aura, as majestic as an ancient sacred mountain and as fiery as molten lava, erupted from his center and swept across all directions.

The sky was filled with swirling clouds, and the invisible pressure sent shivers down the spines of all those secretly watching, as if struck by lightning.

But this is not enough.

Wu Tian raised his hand and gestured towards the ancestral hall below.

"Qiang!"

A clear, resonant sword cry, like a dragon's roar, echoed from the depths of the ancestral hall, piercing the clouds.

Although the Crimson Dragon Immortal-Slaying Blade enshrined at the top of the altar was not actually drawn, a blade of light, condensed to its extreme and seemingly capable of slicing through the light and darkness of heaven and earth, suddenly separated from the blade.

It transformed into a thin line that was difficult to see with the naked eye, and appeared in front of Wu Tian in an instant, swirling happily around his fingertips like a docile red dragon.

"go."

Wu Tian flicked his finger.

The blade flashed slightly and then disappeared.

The next moment...

"Hey!"

Centered on Wu Tian, ​​the sky within a radius of dozens of miles seemed to have been neatly severed by an invisible giant blade. The world suddenly darkened, then returned to normal.

But in the perception of all the observers, an indescribable, terrifying blade of light, sharp enough to annihilate the primordial spirit, traveled upstream along the divine senses and magical connections they had been trying to uncover, and slashed fiercely towards them.

"what!"

"puff!"

"My divine sense!!"

"A knife... what a terrifying glint of light!"

Screams and groans echoed faintly from all directions. All the cultivators who were secretly watching, regardless of their cultivation level, had their divine senses and probing spells annihilated by the light of the Crimson Dragon Immortal-Slaying Blade.

Not only did they suffer a terrible backlash, but their bodies and souls were also cleaved by that wisp of blade light, leaving them all pale-faced, spitting blood, and suffering severe mental and physical damage.

Wu Tian didn't kill most of them, but only gave them a harsh lesson. However, he showed no mercy to three of them who were cultivators from the Toad-Swallowing Li family.

The blade flashed against their almost undisguised malice, shattering their Dao embryos.

The three people were originally in Tonghai County, using a Mirror Pearl to spy on the Lu family ancestral hall.

Suddenly, a line of blood appeared between his eyebrows, and then his entire body exploded. His Dao Embryo shattered and was annihilated by the blade light, leaving only a pile of corpses and crimson blood.

The Li family members who were serving nearby had their clothes stained red by the splattered blood and it took them a long time to react.

"No...it's not good..."

"The elders...they're dead!"

"It's all over, it's all over..."

"What should we do? What should we do?"

When the Li family of the Toad-Swallowing Sect participated in the siege of Bai Qian at Qiyun Mountain, not only did two Nascent Soul True Persons perish, but all the accompanying Dao Embryos and Refining Cultivators also died.

The entire family was reduced to only three Dao Embryo cultivators, a fate even more tragic than that of the Lu family.

But now, the three remaining Dao Embryo cultivators of the Li family died on the spot overnight, which made all the Li family cultivators present feel as if the sky had fallen.

Before the remains of the three Dao Embryo cultivators could even be collected, the entire Li family was already in chaos, with countless people looting and fleeing their ancestral home.

Some wanted to stabilize the situation, some wanted to seize power, and others wanted to plunder money and resources...

The entire Li family was plunged into turmoil.

Wu Tian ignored the Li family. With a single slash of his blade, he annihilated all those who were spying on him and severely damaged many forces, including Nascent Soul True Persons and Dao Embryos. Such methods were truly astonishing.

He stood with his hands behind his back against the sky, his voice calm yet imbued with majesty, like a divine decree, clearly echoing in every corner within a thousand miles.

"I am Lu Ding, the Grand Commander of the Lu family of Wuling County. Today I break through to the Nascent Soul realm."

"A month later, the Lu family hosted a banquet to entertain guests from all directions."

"We look forward to your presence at that time."

As soon as he finished speaking, he ignored the turmoil that his announcement would inevitably cause, stepped on golden light, and in the blink of an eye, he reappeared on the altar in the ancestral hall.

At this moment, the entire Wuling County was in an uproar because of his announcement.

……

Inside the ancestral hall, the glow of the eternal lamps remained serene.

Wu Tian stepped back onto the altar, his overwhelming aura completely subsided, with only the pale golden divine seal between his brows radiating golden light.

He had just landed when a trembling voice called out to him.

"Lu Ding!"

Lu Nanxi almost pounced on him, but stopped abruptly just before touching him. She simply tilted her head back and stared at him with her beautiful eyes.

Her chest heaved violently, and her body trembled slightly beneath her long black dress, clearly still reeling from the shock of the astonishing phenomenon.

"You...you really broke through to the Nascent Soul stage?!"

There was no doubt in the voice; instead, it was filled with a sense of bewilderment.

She had so much to say, but didn't know where to begin.

Witnessing her lover break through to the primordial spirit realm, with golden light shooting straight into the sky and crimson clouds stretching for thousands of miles, such a spectacle shook the entire state. Pride, joy, and the immense sense of security that followed almost overwhelmed her.

Looking at the undisguised affection and excitement in her eyes, Wu Tian felt a surge of tenderness in his heart. He reached out and touched her cheek, saying gently, "Yes, I am already a Nascent Soul cultivator."

His fingertips were warm, and the touch brought a subtle tingling sensation.

Lu Nanxi blushed, but instead of pulling away, she took his hand and held it tightly, as if afraid he would disappear at any moment.

"I knew you could do it."

After gazing at each other for a moment, Wu Tian pulled her into his arms, feeling each other's warmth.

On the table beneath the altar, the candlelight crackled, illuminating their figures.

After a while, Lu Nanxi seemed to remember something, her eyes flickered, she released Wu Tian's hand, and deliberately kept her tone calm.

"By the way, there's something I need to tell you. On the third day after you went into seclusion, the Zhu Rong clan sent an envoy over."

Wu Tian was incredibly perceptive. He immediately picked up on the unnaturalness in her tone and the unease beneath her feigned calm.

Without making a sound, he walked behind her, gently wrapped his arms around her slender waist, rested his chin on the top of her fragrant hair, and asked in a low voice, "Oh? An envoy from the Zhurong clan? What brings you here?"

Feeling the warm and solid embrace behind her, Lu Nanxi stiffened slightly, then softened and leaned against him.

She bit her lip, trying to make her voice sound more casual: "It's nothing... just that they sent over a spellbook."

"Lady Zhurong said that... out of consideration for our past relationship, she felt that your destiny was special and that it complemented her Zhurong Fire Magic. She was willing to offer many precious natural treasures and wanted... wanted you to go to the Zhurong clan so that you could stay by her side and study the Great Dao together."

The more she spoke, the softer her voice became.

"However, since you are in seclusion, I do not know your thoughts, so I let the envoy of the Zhu Rong clan stay for the time being."

"I was thinking that you could decide for yourself after you come out of seclusion."

"If you want to go, I won't stop you..."

She spoke frankly and openly, but her body involuntarily tensed up, waiting for the reaction behind her.

She was afraid the man behind her would fall for her, afraid he would really leave.

After all, Lady Zhurong was a wandering immortal, and the resources and guidance she could provide were far beyond what the current Lu family could offer.

This feeling of gain and loss left her in a state of mental turmoil.

Upon hearing this, Wu Tian did not answer immediately. Instead, he hugged her tighter, lowered his head, and gently kissed her ear, feeling her earlobe turn red instantly and her slight trembling.

Then, he chuckled softly, his tone filled with affection: "Is my Nanxi jealous? Or is she just reluctant to part with me?"

Lu Nanxi was both embarrassed and annoyed when he exposed her secret. She struggled to turn around and said, "Who, who's jealous! I'm not! Go or don't go, it's up to you!"

But that little bit of strength was like an ant trying to shake a tree in front of Wu Tian now.

Wu Tian scooped her up in his arms!
"Hey! What are you doing! Put me down!" Lu Nanxi said, but she subconsciously wrapped her arms around his neck and refused to let go, her cheeks unconsciously flushing red.

"What are you doing?" Wu Tian carried her and strode towards the ancestral hall, a smile playing on his lips. "You little thing, you've got a real temper, I have to appease you."

"You... what nonsense are you talking about! Put me down! This is the ancestral hall!" Lu Nanxi was both ashamed and anxious, pounding on his chest, but her strength was weak and had no power.

This is our ancestral hall! This scoundrel is incredibly audacious! (End of Chapter)
