Clan Cultivation: My Intelligence Updated Daily

"My uncle guessed correctly, I am indeed heading north."

Zhang Lingyu composed himself and said calmly, "My injuries are relatively minor, and since it was an order from the sect, I am naturally on the list."

"Although the north is dangerous, please do not worry, uncles and elders. I will know what to do."

The die is cast, and since it was personally ordered by the Nascent Soul True Monarch, there is virtually no possibility of changing it.

Zhang Xingyao's expression darkened, and after a long pause, he said in a deep voice, "I won't say more. You are already a Golden Core cultivator. Not to mention us, even the Supreme Elder wouldn't dare to give you any instructions..."

He paused, the worry in his eyes ultimately failing to dissipate, and couldn't help but speak again:

"But I still have to say something: if you really find yourself in a life-or-death situation, don't worry about anything else. Remember to save your life and escape is the best option! As for the family, with me, Xinghao, and all the clansmen here, the sky won't fall down."

"I understand."

Zhang Lingyu responded, then pulled Zhang Xingyao and several other high-ranking family members aside and instructed them:

"Although the situation in the south has eased considerably, there are still hidden dangers. This time, the family is going to Cloud Hidden Valley to repair the mountain-protecting array and guard against any unusual movements by the demon race. The Golden Core cultivator guarding the area is Lin Lanxin from the Azure Wave Sect. I spoke with her before I came here, and she promised to take care of my Zhang family during this period."

"If Uncle has any difficulties, he can go to her for help."

"It's already at a time like this, and you've gone to so much trouble for me." Upon hearing this, Zhang Xingyao felt both touched and heartbroken, and let out a silent sigh.

The family had no close relationship with the Bilang Sect, and Zhang Lingyu himself was only at the initial stage of the Golden Core realm, so there was no personal connection between him and Lin Lanxin.

The fact that the other party has agreed to the deal is most likely because the former sent some precious rare and precious materials, which facilitated the transaction.

"It's alright, it's just a pill anyway, it's not of much use to me, as long as it can help the family..."

Zhang Lingyu smiled, took out a dozen talismans from her storage bag and handed them over. At the same time, she looked at Zhang Yuanyao, Wang Menghan and the other juniors, and said softly:

"You are all good children of the family and pillars of the family. With me not by your side, you must listen to the elder and never put yourselves in danger."

"If...if Cloud Hidden Valley truly falls one day, remember, do everything in your power to save your life and leave! As long as one member of the Zhang family bloodline remains, the family will not be destroyed, and there will be a chance to rise again!"

Hearing these words, Wang Menghan felt a lump in her throat and her eyes instantly reddened; it was as if she were making arrangements for her death.

"Lingyu, don't worry. They're not naive children anymore; they know what they're doing. Besides, I'm here. Even if it costs me my life, I'll protect them..."

Zhang Xingyao broke the somewhat somber atmosphere by speaking up, then changed the subject, asking a difficult question:

"Lingyu, since you are going to the north, you should visit the Supreme Elder. Although his letters have mentioned that his injuries are relatively minor, the soul lamps in the clan have been dimming lately. I'm worried that he..."

Upon hearing this, everyone unconsciously lowered their heads.

The old man had been practicing alchemy for thirteen years, and all his skills were in alchemy. His combat skills were not high, and he did not have any good magic weapons. Therefore, he was likely to suffer losses on the northern battlefield.

Since the start of the war, twenty-four Golden Core cultivators from the Zhao state have perished in the north.

To be honest, the fact that the old man has managed to live this long is partly due to luck.

"I understand. The primary purpose of this northward expedition is to relieve the crisis on Wu's eastern front. According to the last message, my great-grandfather is currently stationed at the Huohuai Mountain stronghold under the jurisdiction of the Huoyun Sect in Wu. I will request permission from the True Lord to go there at that time." Zhang Lingyu nodded in agreement.

"Alright, I feel much more at ease with your words... But as I said before, your own life is the most important thing. As long as you are alive, the family will not decline."

After explaining everything that needed to be explained, Zhang Lingyu pulled several young members of the clan, including Wang Menghan, aside, gave them repeated instructions, and then took out several high-quality talismans to save their lives.

"Master, please take good care of yourself!" Wang Menghan said in a low voice, clutching the talisman in her hand tightly.

Zhang Lingyu rubbed her head and said, "Don't worry, Master is most afraid of dying. If we really encounter danger, I will definitely stay far away."

After exchanging pleasantries, he dismissed everyone and then secretly met with one person.

Yue Yi, a Foundation Establishment guest elder in the family.

This man was, after all, a peak Golden Core cultivator, and also the sect leader of the Spirit Puppet Sect. With him helping to take care of the family, we can rest assured.

"Senior, I'll leave it to you to look after things after I leave."

"Don't worry, I've got everything covered..."

Yue Yi accepted the storage bag and found a Golden Core level puppet, two low-grade magic treasures, and even several fifth-order talismans inside. He accepted it readily, half-seriously and half-jokingly saying:

"Boy, don't die in the north. I'm waiting for you to come back and help me rebuild the Spirit Puppet Sect."

"Sect Leader Yue, rest assured, I've got it in mind."

Zhang Lingyu smiled and watched him follow his family onto the [Zhaoming] and head towards Yunyin Valley. She waited until he disappeared from sight before turning and leaving.

Zhang Lingyu smiled and watched him follow his family onto the [Zhaoming] and head towards Yunyin Valley. She waited until he disappeared from sight before turning and leaving.

With three days left before heading north, he planned to buy some things and get his injuries treated.

Since the start of the war, he has captured quite a few good things, most of which came from Xue Yang. However, apart from the Blood Soul-Capturing Bell, the other captured items are not very useful.

It would be better to sell it and buy some other magical artifacts.

To be honest, he really had his eye on a magical artifact.

In the Wanbao Pavilion in the core area of ​​Tianliu City, there is a low-grade Golden Core binding ring that can change size according to the cultivator's will. Once bound by this ring during a battle, it is very difficult to break free.

The Spirit Binding Rope used during the Foundation Establishment stage was quite handy, and I've come to love this kind of magical artifact ever since.

If we had had this treasure last time, we might have been able to capture the Sable Demon King without the aid of the grand formation.

In addition, there were two other lightning-attribute spiritual materials in the Wanbao Tower.

These are Qian Tian Thunder Essence and Yi Mu Thunder Bamboo. He has never forgotten to collect materials for his natal magic weapon, and this time he can get them all at once.

With that, he rode the wind and headed towards Tianliu City.

......

Three days later, after Zhang Lingyu returned to Thousand Blade Valley to heal her wounds after buying what she wanted, the jade talisman in her sleeve shattered with a "bang," and she immediately realized it was time to set off.

He stepped out of the cave and looked up to see more than 150 treasure ships and spirit vessels lined up in the sky.

"The Six Sects are indeed powerful; they were able to gather so many spirit ships in just three days."

Zhang Lingyu was somewhat taken aback. Seeing that many beams of light were rising into the sky from Thousand Blade Valley below, he glanced at the direction of Cloud Hidden Valley and then flew upwards without hesitation.

After waiting for nearly half an hour, once all the cultivators had assembled, the hundred-odd spirit ships finally set off in a grand procession toward the north.
