Cultivating Immortals in the Family: Rising from Beast Familiarity

Changchun Valley.

After receiving the formal invitation from Venerable Changchun, all the human cultivators in the God Transformation Stage came here, even the ruthless and heartless Venerable Lingfeng was no exception.

Today, the human race has pacified the alien races in all directions and has successively surrounded and killed many sixth-level alien warriors. In addition, Zhou Chun and other Jinhua-stage cultivators have been in close contact with each other, so this Venerable Lingfeng has actually felt some pressure.

Before this, all the foreign tribes were present, and even if he didn't look at anyone well, no one dared to really turn against him.

But things are different now.

If he really angered the human gods, especially Venerable Changchun, who was a late-stage god-transformation cultivator, there was no guarantee that they would not harbor murderous intentions towards him.

So when Venerable Changchun formally invited him to discuss matters, he still gave him face and came.

At this time, looking at the gathered Human Divine Transformation cultivators, Changchun Venerable also looked at everyone with a serious expression and said: "I invited all of you Taoist friends here today because I have an important matter to inform you and discuss with you!"

Hearing what he said, everyone present had a slightly changed expression.

The most senior Guanghan Venerable quickly asked, "What is the big deal that deserves such a big event from Fellow Daoist Changchun?"

"This matter is not complicated to explain. I think all of you Taoist friends know that since ancient times, there has been a great elder in our human race who has been able to prolong his life by sleeping."

"This powerful being is called Yuan Zun, and he is a powerful being in the Void Refining Stage who descended from the upper realm in ancient times!"

"It is only because of the great changes in the world in ancient times that this senior Yuanzun's body was destroyed. He is unable to ascend back to the upper realm. He can only use secret methods to enter a deep sleep to slow down the passage of his lifespan!"

"This matter is also a secret among the gods of our human race. The true situation is only known by the secret keepers of successive generations, and I am the fifth generation of secret keepers!"

At this point, Changchun Zun also spoke in a low voice: "After the spiritual energy tide of heaven and earth descended, this old man went to wake up this senior Yuan Zun, wanting to ask him about the relevant matters of ascending to the upper realm!"

“But this senior Yuanzun told me that if he wanted him to quickly recover his physical body and take me to the upper realm, he had to help me collect the corpses of those sixth-level aliens!”

“Although this request sounds a bit strange, for the sake of my Ascension Plan, I still agreed and put it into action.”

“But after I handed over four sixth-level corpses to Senior Yuanzun, he still thought it was not enough and wanted two more sixth-level corpses!”

“And even though I said that I couldn’t get a sixth-level corpse, he actually suggested that I could use the corpse of a human god-transforming cultivator to make up for it!!”

When the words reached this point, the expressions of the Jindan stage cultivators present changed drastically, among which Venerable Guanghan and Venerable Lingfeng had the ugliest expressions.

Because of their respective situations, both of them felt that their situation was more dangerous.

Under such circumstances, Changchun Zun suddenly changed his tone and said loudly in a high voice: "My fellow Taoists have known me for many years. You should know that I am not the kind of person who would disregard the interests of the human race for the sake of my own path! I rejected Senior Yuanzun's proposal on the spot!"

As soon as these words came out, Zhou Chun's eyes flickered, and he immediately took the initiative to praise: "Senior Changchun has a noble character and is always willing to help others. He has always been a role model for our generation and an object of admiration for the younger generation. Now he makes the younger generation admire him even more!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Venerable Lingfeng nodded and continued, "Yes, yes, Senior Changchun is a man of high moral character and a benevolent man. This is a well-known fact. I also believe that Senior is definitely not the kind of person who would sell out the interests of the human race!"

As soon as the two of them spoke, the others followed suit and nodded in agreement, praising the noble character of Lord Changchun one after another.

Listening to the praises of the crowd, Changchun Reverend smiled and said, "Thank you all for your trust. From your words, you can see that my decision was not wrong, and I have lived up to your trust!"

At this point, he said calmly, "But I can also say calmly that ascending to the upper realm is my greatest wish in this life. Therefore, as long as there is a slight chance to achieve this wish, I am willing to make every effort to do it!"

As soon as these words came out, Venerable Guanghan couldn't help but ask, "What do you mean by this, Daoist Fellow Changchun?"

Zhou Chun and others also looked at Lord Changchun with puzzled eyes.

However, he calmly put his hands together and said, "Fellow Daoists, please do not misunderstand me. I have no intention of changing my mind. I just want to ask for a favor and meet the Golden Horned Dragon Saint and the [Northern Dark Mysterious Kun] again!"

Hearing this, Master Guanghan immediately replied: "Fellow Daoist Changchun, are you planning to target the demon race? But we have all seen the strength of that [Northern Dark Kun] before. In a place like Longyuanze, we don't have much chance of defeating him. Even if we can beat him, I'm afraid we won't be able to stop him!"

In response to this, the Changchun Master sighed softly and said, "We must give it a try! How can I be content without a try!"

"Then let's try again with Senior Changchun. We have a lot of people and even if we can't kill the monster, it shouldn't be difficult to escape unscathed!"

Venerable Lingfeng suddenly interrupted and expressed a positive attitude before anyone else.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun could only nod and say, "Since Senior Changchun has such ambitions and is conquering the demon race for the sake of the human race, then he should be considered a junior."

After he made this statement, Taigeng Divine Lord and Ye Qingxuan quickly followed suit and expressed their agreement.

Soon, everyone expressed their agreement.

Upon seeing this, Changchun Zun also showed a happy expression and bowed his hands to express his gratitude, saying, "Thank you all for your trust, fellow Taoists. Regardless of whether this matter can be accomplished or not, I am grateful for your kindness."

Then they seriously discussed the plan to attack Longyuanze.

After discussing for half a day, they set off together for Longyuanze.

In order to make this plan successful, Venerable Changchun even brought along Venerable Green Robe's sixth-level incarnation, which can be said to be a true effort!

Not long after, the seven great gods of humanity arrived near the Dragon Palace, accompanied by the Glazed Demon Saint and the Green Robe Venerable.

This is the first time in this world that nine level six beings have acted at the same time since the ancient times!
After sensing those powerful auras, the Golden Horned Dragon Saint did not dare to proactively confront them like he did last time. Instead, he directly notified [Beiming Xuankun] and relied on the Dragon Palace formation to hold his ground.

The nine sixth-level beings outside certainly would not just sit there and wait for [Bei Ming Xuan Kun] to arrive. Seeing that the monster did not show up, they immediately attacked the Dragon Palace thousands of feet below the water surface.

This Dragon Palace has been reinforced by successive sixth-level demon saints of the Jiaolong clan, and it also borrowed from the human race's formations, so its defense is extremely powerful.

But no matter how strong the defense is, it is impossible to withstand the joint attack of nine sixth-level beings!
After only one round of attack, the underwater Dragon Palace was pierced by Zhou Chun and others, and the aftermath killed countless fourth- and fifth-level dragons!
This was only the result of the Golden Horned Dragon Saint’s timely action to protect some dragons, otherwise there would have been more casualties.

But without the protection of the Dragon Palace, the Golden Horned Dragon Saint could hardly protect himself, so how could he have the energy left to take care of other dragons?

As more attacks fell into the Dragon Palace, this holy place in the hearts of the Longyuanze demon clan suddenly became a doomsday ruin and quickly fell apart!

At this time, the Golden Horned Dragon Saint no longer cared about the grief for the descendants of the Jiaolong clan who died. He himself was in a very dangerous situation.

Seven or eight magical treasures attacked him one after another. Even though he had the [Dragon God Pearl] to protect him, two fists were no match for four hands. His defense was soon broken and his body was covered in blood.

Fortunately, at this moment, [Bei Ming Xuan Kun] finally arrived, and directly raised endless waves to disrupt the attacks of the human gods, and then launched a counterattack against the nine sixth-level powerhouses on the water.

Facing opponents with a huge numerical advantage, even when he was outnumbered, he didn't show any fear!
I saw white lightning balls emitting chills breaking through the water and shooting towards the human gods in the air.

These white thunder balls may look inconspicuous, but they are extremely powerful. They are the [Northern Dark Divine Thunder of Extermination] formed by the sixth-level [Northern Dark Divine Water].

And that [Northern Ming Divine Water] is the true water magic unique to the [Northern Ming Xuan Kun] clan. It has the property of melting all things, and is extremely cold, able to freeze all things!

Zhou Chun and other early stage Jinhua cultivators initially underestimated the power of this large-scale attack, thinking that the power of such a large-scale attack on multiple targets at the same time would not be too strong.

As a result, Zhou Chun, who was using his magical powers to protect himself, was frozen stiff by the chill of the [Northern Ocean Destruction Divine Thunder] and nearly suffered a great loss!

Fortunately, the Glazed Demon Saint was nearby and found that he was in a bad situation. He quickly activated the [Skyfire Divine Pearl] to block some of the white lightning balls attacking him from behind.

While launching numerous white thunder balls to bombard the human gods at once, [Beiming Xuankun] also launched a fierce offensive against Venerable Changchun.

He roared, and the surging power of the Water Path Law surged in the air, suddenly forming a huge dark mouth that swallowed up Reverend Changchun.

As soon as this huge dark mouth that was dozens of miles wide was formed, a terrifying sucking force enveloped Venerable Changchun, forcing him to fall into the huge mouth involuntarily.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly, urging the green bamboo spear to attack upwards in time, tearing a crack, and then used the method of substitute to transfer the Qi that was locked on himself to a spiritual wood puppet substitute, and instantly pretended to be dead and escaped from the crack.

But just as he escaped from the huge mouth, he found himself in a dark water area.

It turned out that [Beiming Xuankun] took advantage of the time when his mind was distracted by the huge black mouth and silently activated his own innate magical power [Beiming Divine Realm] to wrap him up in it.

This [Northern Divine Realm] is a powerful magical power that is advanced from the magical power of the Dharma Realm. It is almost a world of its own, filled with [Northern Divine Water].

As soon as Venerable Changchun entered, he immediately felt a strong sense of crisis.

He immediately knew in his heart that if he still didn't display the power of the late stage of the Spirit Transformation, he might die here!
So he did not hesitate any longer and immediately used the secret method taught by the "Yuan Zun" to release all his strength. Although Changchun Zun, who was able to exert his full strength, was still not as powerful as [Beiming Xuankun], he was no longer an object that the other party could manipulate at will.

Zhou Chun and others outside, after discovering that Reverend Changchun was trapped, attacked the huge body of [Beiming Xuankun] with all their might, forcing it to be unable to concentrate on dealing with Reverend Changchun.

The true blood body of a sixth-rank upper-grade demon saint is naturally extremely powerful, not to mention that [Bei Ming Xuan Kun] is also very good at defense and recovery.

But his defense is not strong enough to break even if an early stage Jindan cultivator holds a magical treasure!

Especially Tai Geng Shenzun, Zhou Chun, and Ye Qingxuan, three sword cultivators in the God Transformation Stage who possessed the Tongtian Lingbao Flying Sword. Their flying sword attacks were able to tear apart the defense of [Beiming Xuan Kun] every time, leaving deep scars on its body.

The attacks of Venerable Lingfeng were not much inferior to theirs, not to mention the Glazed Demon Saint.

Venerable Guanghan and Venerable Xuanwu, who were not good at this, took action against the Golden Horned Dragon Saint.

In this way, under the fierce attack of Zhou Chun and other five sixth-level strongmen, [Bei Ming Xuan Kun] soon had to divide his strength to strengthen his own defense to avoid being seriously injured and being taken advantage of!
But in this way, Venerable Changchun would not have any pressure and could use his magical powers to his heart's content to escape.

Not long after, relying on the powerful attacking force of the [Nine Heavens Wind and Thunder Fan], Reverend Changchun successfully escaped from the [Northern Divine Realm] and joined the siege of [Northern Dark Kun].

However, as a water-dwelling divine beast from the upper realm, [Bei Ming Xuan Kun] has the highest cultivation level in the entire field. Once he concentrates on defending, Zhou Chun and other early stage Jinhua cultivators will find it difficult to even break his defense.

Although Reverend Changchun was able to break through the defense, it was not enough to pose any fatal threat to it.

As the fight went on, the scars left on his body by Zhou Chun and others were gradually healed due to his powerful self-healing ability.

Faced with such a situation, everyone was shocked at the monster's powerful strength, but also felt full of frustration in their hearts.

"Fellow Daoist Changchun, this monster is too powerful. I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to achieve anything today!"

Venerable Guanghan looked at [Beiming Xuankun] who directly offset and absorbed most of his attacks, and couldn't help but express his own views through voice transmission.

They really tried their best!

But the enemy's strength makes people feel hopeless and powerless.

If we continue to fight, not only will we see no hope of victory, but we may also suffer unnecessary casualties on our side.

Therefore, it is understandable that people are considering quitting.

However, Venerable Changchun did not seem to want to give up so quickly and still had no intention of relenting.

In this situation, everyone can only risk their lives to accompany the gentleman and continue to fight with him.

Finally, after half a day of fighting, until the time limit of Changchun Reverend's secret technique was about to expire, he gave the order to retreat with a dejected look on his face and took everyone away.

Bei Ming Xuan Kun, who had seen the strength of everyone, did not choose to chase this time. He just let out a victorious roar and watched everyone go away.

Seeing this, the Golden Horned Dragon Saint stepped forward with wounds all over his body and praised: "Senior Lingzun is indeed very powerful and has boundless magical powers!"

Unexpectedly, after listening to his words, [Beiming Xuankun] suddenly looked at him and said, "Those humans are not that strong individually, but they are not to be underestimated when they are together. When I am here, you, the Jiaolong clan, will have nothing to worry about, but what about after I ascend to heaven?"

"This……"

The Golden Horned Dragon Saint's eyes suddenly changed and he didn't know how to answer.

He was silent for a moment, then looked at Bei Ming Xuan Kun with pleading eyes and said, "Senior Ling Zun, you won't ascend so soon, right? As long as you stay for a few more years, wait for Changchun, Guanghan, and Xuanwu to die, and wait for another demon saint to appear in my demon race, then you don't have to worry about the human race!"

Hearing his words, [Beiming Xuankun] replied calmly: "It's not impossible for me to ascend later, but it's not so easy for the demon race to produce another demon saint!"

"Moreover, the human race has now unified the land of this world. In the future, the speed at which the cultivators of the Divine Transformation Stage emerge will definitely be much faster than that of the demon race!"

These words silenced the Golden Horned Dragon Saint again.

Even if the Golden Horned Dragon Saint was unwilling to admit it, he knew that this was an unchangeable fact!
The fact is, it now seems that unless we can capture all the gods of the human race in one fell swoop, there is no way to stop the human race’s rise!

At this time, [Beiming Xuankun] slowly spoke again: "It seems that you also know that if you keep trying to compete with the human race in the number of sixth-level experts, you will never be able to win!"

"Yes, although I don't want to admit it, I have to admit it!"

The Golden Horned Dragon Saint sighed and nodded helplessly.

Seeing him admit this, [Beiming Xuankun] spoke again: "Then do you know? The human race with the Taoist name Changchun secretly told me something. Although I don't know if it is really as he said, if he is not lying, the demon race will have a great disaster!"

what?
The Golden Horned Dragon Saint looked at [Beiming Xuankun] in shock and was stunned by what he said.

Then he hurriedly asked, "What did you say to the old ghost Changchun and Senior Lingzun? This old ghost has always been cunning, Senior Lingzun, please don't be fooled by him!"

[Bei Ming Xuan Kun] did not care about his tone, and immediately told him what Reverend Changchun had secretly said.

After hearing this, the Golden Horned Dragon Saint took a deep breath and remained speechless for a long time!

On the other hand, after Zhou Chun and others returned to land, they were all in mixed feelings and didn't want to say much.

The powerful strength of [Beiming Xuankun] shocked them all, and the failure of the action meant that Lord Changchun's ascension plan had also reached a dead end.

No one knows what this late-stage Jindan cultivator will do!
"My fellow Taoists, do you know anything about ascending to the upper realm?"

Just when everyone was silent and didn't know what to say, Reverend Changchun suddenly spoke in a low voice and asked a question that stunned everyone.

After everyone was stunned for a moment, it was still Guanghan Venerable who spoke first: "According to ancient legends, in ancient times, as long as one cultivated to the late stage of the Spiritualization, one could take the Ascension Channel to the upper realm. It is even said that cultivators in the middle stage of the Spiritualization or even the early stage of the Spiritualization can have a chance to ascend successfully if they can obtain the protection of a secret treasure!"

"But as far as I know, the ascension channel was broken long ago after the ancient war. I don't know how the monks who come after this will ascend!"

Having said this, she also looked at the Changchun Reverend and asked, "Fellow Daoist Changchun should know all of this. Could it be that Fellow Daoist Changchun knows some secrets that we don't know?"

"It's not really a secret, I just know a little more than you do."

Venerable Changchun shook his head slightly and explained immediately: "As for the matter of the Ascension Channel, Daoist Guanghan just said that since the Ascension Channel was broken, if the cultivators of this world want to ascend again, the minimum standard is to reach the late stage of Spiritualization, because only in this way can they reach the upper limit of the power that this world can accommodate, allowing the will of the Great Dao of this world to exclude people from this world!"

“But fellow Taoists, you also know that outside the interface is the Primal Chaos Void, which is an extremely dangerous place. Even a cultivator in the late stage of Spiritualization may die if he is not careful. Moreover, there is no spiritual energy from heaven and earth there, so it is impossible to recover mana!”

"So once you leave this world and want to go to the upper world, you must have the ascension signposts of the upper world to guide you!"

At this point, he sighed slightly and said, "In ancient times, it was easy to obtain ascension beacons. Even after the ascension channel was broken, there were still many ascension beacons left!"

“But now, tens of thousands of years have passed, even if there are still ascension beacons left, they have almost lost their effect!”

Venerable Changchun said this, which means he must have the sign of ascension in his hand, otherwise he would not be so sure.

When everyone heard this, they all showed expressions of regret.

But just when Zhou Chun was about to ask if there were any other ways, Changchun Zun suddenly said, "But there is another way. Even without the Ascension Mark, you can still get guidance from the upper realm and accurately find the void road to the upper realm!"

"any solution?"

Zhou Chun asked quickly, his tone somewhat hurried.

He is still young, and he may have the opportunity to cultivate to the late stage of Spirit Transformation in the future, so he will naturally be very concerned about the matter of ascension.

Regardless of whether the other Jindan stage cultivators had that opportunity or not, they all turned their gazes to Venerable Changchun at this moment, wanting to know what method could allow them to successfully ascend.

However, Reverend Changchun said slowly: "People who come to this world from the upper world naturally carry the mark of the avenue of the upper world in their souls. Once they leave this world, they will naturally feel the call of the avenue of the upper world and find the right path!"

As soon as he said this, Zhou Chun suddenly understood and nodded repeatedly, "Junior understands. Senior Yuanzun is a powerful being who has descended from the upper realm. As long as he leaves this realm, he can find the location of the upper realm. So if Senior Changchun can leave with him, it is equivalent to having a living ascension mark!"

"Yes! Senior Yuanzun has mastered this point, which is why I am willing to serve him!"

Changchun Zun also nodded, and sighed in a low voice, his words full of helplessness. (End of this chapter)
