Cultivation of Immortality: Starting from Fu Cultivation

For a moment, the Shen family's powerful members, including the family head, were all somewhat hesitant.

Just then, a voice suddenly rang out in the hall.

"The border battlefield is both a calamity and an opportunity."

"The Earth Profound Realm is now being swept up by an unprecedented force, and the entire Earth Profound Realm is undergoing earth-shattering changes at an extremely rapid pace."

"If the Shen family wants to rise to prominence, the only way is to follow this trend and forge ahead."

“Simply following the old methods and developing step by step will only lead to being submerged and eliminated by the tide of the times.”

As the sound rang out, a figure gradually appeared in the Shen family's main hall.

This figure was none other than the powerful individual who had recently been teleported to the outskirts of Qingyuan City and had just escaped from the battlefield at the border between the two realms.

Upon seeing the figure that suddenly appeared with the sound, the Shen family's experts were on high alert.

The head of the Shen family secretly took a deep breath, suppressing his inner apprehension, and asked calmly:

"May I ask who you are, senior? And what brings you to my Shen family?"

"If my Shen family can help you, senior, we will certainly not refuse!"

Although members of the Shen family have participated in the border battles between the two realms for hundreds of years, they are qualified to receive protection from the rules set by the higher-ups of the human race in the Earth Profound Realm.

But there are always some crazy people in this world who will disregard the rules.

If the Shen family is wiped out, even if someone avenges them afterward, it will be meaningless to the Shen family.

As a Golden Core family, the entire Shen family only has two Golden Core cultivators.

Apart from one Supreme Elder who is currently in seclusion, only the head of the Shen family has the cultivation level of Golden Core.

Even he, the head of the Shen family, felt an immense sense of insignificance in the face of this suddenly appearing powerful figure.

Therefore, the head of the Shen family could only deal with this suddenly appearing powerful figure with extreme caution.

After hearing the question from the head of the Shen family.

The powerful figure who had just appeared was taken aback at first, then a rare smile appeared on his face, which had been stiff from not smiling for a long time, as he replied:

"Who am I? Hehehe, Patriarch, don't you remember me?"

"I am Shen Xindao, one of the cultivators sent to the border battlefield by the Shen family six hundred years ago."

"Shen Xindao?"

Upon hearing what the person in front of him said, the head of the Shen family began to think frantically.

In a short while, an ordinary figure from the depths of his memory surfaced in the mind of the Shen family patriarch.

Looking at the figure before him, which had undergone tremendous changes but still vaguely resembled the figure in his memory.

The head of the Shen family immediately widened his eyes, speaking with a mixture of disbelief and surprise:

"Are you really Xin Dao? You've returned from the border battlefield?"

Shen Xindao was one of the second batch of outstanding talents sent to the border battlefield by the Shen family six hundred years ago.

They are called prodigies, but that only applies to the Shen family.

Six hundred years ago, Shen Xindao was actually just a minor genius whose talent barely reached the level of a six-elemental spiritual root.

Such talent is unparalleled, let alone in the entire Di Xuan Realm.

Even within the Shen family's territory, they were considered somewhat insignificant.

Six hundred years ago, when the Shen family responded to the call of the Earth Profound Realm Alliance and sent a group of Shen family cultivators, including Shen Xindao, to the border battlefield.

At that time, Shen Xindao had only recently broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Shen Xindao has now been navigating the border battlefields for a full six hundred years, so his cultivation level must be quite high.
As his thoughts raced, the head of the Shen family's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but ask:

"Heart Blade, what is your current cultivation level?"

Faced with the patriarch's question, Shen Xindao's smile deepened, and he nodded slightly, saying:

"I recently broke through to the Void Realm."

"The Void Realm?"

Upon hearing Shen Xindao's answer, all the Shen family cultivators in the hall, including the head of the Shen family, were immediately stunned.

After learning that the person in front of them was a member of the Shen family who had returned from the border battlefield, they...

In fact, he had already secretly estimated Shen Xindao's cultivation level in his heart.

However, they never imagined that Shen Xindao's talent would allow him to break through to the Void Realm in just six hundred years.

Let alone the Void Realm, even the Void Cave Realm is something they wouldn't dare to even dream of.

Seeing the disbelief in the eyes of the Shen family cultivators in the hall, Shen Xindao simply spoke calmly:

"The battlefield at the border between the two realms is indeed brutal, but it is also the place with the greatest opportunity in the entire Di Xuan Realm."

"On the frontier battlefield, as long as you kill enough enemies and gain enough Heavenly Merit, you can succeed."

“Your cultivation level, and even your talent, can be raised to the level you want.”

As he spoke, Shen Xindao looked around and continued:

"My temporary departure from the border battlefield and return to the Shen family is to enhance the Shen family's power level and allow the Shen family to obtain more resources."

"Once everything is settled in the Shen family, I will return to the border battlefield to pursue the ultimate path to immortality."

"There are rules set by a group of high-ranking human leaders. As long as the Shen family's power level increases and they define their expansion territory, they will be able to maintain their power."

"Even if I'm not with the Shen family by then, I can still ensure the Shen family's interests."

Shen Xindao was, after all, from the Shen family and had certain karmic ties with them.

After one's cultivation level is raised.

If we don't settle the Shen family properly, elevate them to a certain level, and provide them with better development resources...

Shen Xindao was never able to be completely focused on the frontier battlefield.

Therefore, Shen Xindao is making his return this time.

It includes the idea of ​​returning home in glory and fulfilling some of the expectations one had in their youth.

It also implies that he is giving back to the Shen family with his current cultivation level and settling some karmic entanglements.

In the hall, after hearing what Shen Daoxin said...

The head of the Shen family had recovered from his shock and was muttering to himself:

"The Void Realm! It's actually the Void Realm! Heaven is blessing my Shen family!"

The other elders of the Shen family around them were also overjoyed, their eyes revealing a variety of strong emotions.

Many of them expressed longing for the border battlefield between the two worlds.

It should be noted that, in addition to the cultivators that various forces need to periodically select and send to the border battlefields, there are also those who need to be transferred.

Other cultivators in the Earthly Profound Realm are also able to go to the border battlefield to participate in the battle on their own.

If they could also achieve something on the frontier battlefield, wouldn't that be great?
While some of the elders of the Shen family were lost in thought, the head of the Shen family had calmed down somewhat.

After pondering Shen Xindao's words for a moment, a hint of hesitation appeared in the eyes of the Shen family patriarch.

"Heart Blade, you have now reached the Void Realm."

"Given the rules set by the higher-ups of the Earth Profound Realm Alliance, it wouldn't be difficult to raise the power level of our Shen family."

“However, the resource areas around Qingyuan City are basically all owned, and even if you are now at the Void Realm, you cannot forcibly seize them.” “Moreover, once my Shen family’s power level is raised…”

"The number of cultivators that need to be sent to the border battlefield in each round will increase significantly, and even the requirements for the rotation of cultivator realms will become higher and higher."

"With the resources of our Shen family, this is simply beyond our means."

The Shen family is now a Golden Core level family. When the situation in the low-level war zones on the border is stable, the Shen family only needs to provide three service slots each year.

The cultivation level requirement for these three spots is between the Qi Refining Realm and the Purple Mansion Realm.

The specific cultivation requirements will be continuously rotated according to the rotation order.

Once the Shen family advances to the Void-level family.

That applies to both the number of cultivators required to serve and their cultivation level.

None of these are things that the current Shen family can handle.

However, after hearing the patriarch's concerns, Shen Xindao confidently replied:
“The resource areas near Qingyuan City have already been divided up by various forces, so our Shen family will move away from Qingyuan City.”

"As for the fact that the Shen family is unable to undertake the tasks assigned by the alliance after advancing, there is a solution."

"Once the Shen family advances to the Void-level power and identifies the corresponding resource locations, I will use my merits to exchange for a thousand years of development time for the Shen family."

"During this thousand years, the Shen family will not need to undertake the tasks assigned by the alliance. They only need to focus on development after obtaining the basic resources that a Void-level power can possess."

"As for a thousand years from now, we will then apply for a downgrade and relinquish some of the resource land that has already been designated, based on the overall strength of the Shen family."

"Even if I'm not in the Shen family by then, the Shen family will still be able to develop by leaps and bounds."

Shen Xindao had already thought through all the issues that the head of the Shen family was considering before returning to the Shen family.

The current Earthly Realm is vast, with countless unclaimed resource sites.

Even if there are regulations, it is impossible to encroach on the interests of other forces.

However, after these powerful figures who rose from the frontier battlefields returned, they led their respective forces or families to develop in a different place.

That's an extremely simple thing.

Because cultivators from the Earthly Profound Realm kill enemies on the border battlefield, in addition to the Heavenly Dao merits bestowed by Heaven.

They can also receive merits from the newly formed Earthly Mystic Realm Alliance.

As long as you have enough merits.

Various resources and inheritances within the Earthly Mystic Realm can be exchanged.

Even experts at the True Immortal Realm can guide you, or even have them do things for you according to your requests.

And for their own faction, they can exchange for a certain amount of development time, etc.

All of this can be achieved through meritorious service on the frontier battlefield.

Shen Xindao also heard that the True Immortal Realm experts among the high-ranking members of the Earth Profound Realm Alliance could exchange their merits for a spot to listen to the Dao before an Immortal King.

In other words.

As long as you are willing to make enough contributions, let alone a thousand years of peaceful development.

Even if you want to relocate the Shen family to other major regions, to the depths of the endless sea, or to the depths of the starry sky in the Earth Profound Realm.

You can exchange them for help from powerful figures at the True Immortal Realm, or even Immortal Lord Realm experts under the seven Immortal King lineages of the Earthly Profound Realm.

The prerequisite is that you can gain enough merits on the frontier battlefield.

Of course, with the merits Shen Xindao has accumulated so far, it is naturally not enough to squander them like this.

However, if it's just about resolving some minor issues that arise after the Shen family advances to the Void-level power, then it's not difficult to do.

Therefore, upon learning that Shen Xindao could arrange everything, the head of the Shen family immediately decided:
“Alright, then my Shen family will directly apply to be promoted to the Void-level power and move away from Qingyuan City to other areas to claim the resources that a Void-level power can possess.”

After the head of the Shen family had made his decision.

Shen Xindao did not delay and immediately went to the city of the Shen family’s territory to submit an application to the Earth Profound Realm Alliance.

After receiving the rule document issued by the Earth Profound Realm Alliance.

Under Shen Xindao's leadership, the entire Shen family began to move away from Qingyuan City and develop in other areas.

As for the Shen family's territory in Qingyuan City, it was naturally reclaimed by the Earth Profound Realm Alliance.

The entire process of the Shen family's relocation was grand and undisguised.

This made the other forces in Qingyuan City extremely envious, and they all increased their efforts to participate in the border battlefield.

After learning about Shen Xindao's situation.

Other forces in Qingyuan City also fantasized that someone from their clansmen or disciples would rise to prominence on the border battlefield.

Then they returned home in glory, elevating their power to unprecedented heights.

It's not just Shen Xindao and the Shen family.

Throughout the entire Earthly Mystic Realm.

Shen Xindao and the Shen family are merely a small microcosm of the various regions of the Earth Profound Realm.

As the first batch of warriors from the Di Xuan Realm completed their service, the powerful figures who rose from the border battlefields returned one after another.

The entire Di Xuan Realm, like Qingyuan City where the Shen family was located, was significantly affected.

However, under the influence of a series of rules established by the Earthly Mystic Realm Alliance, these effects are mostly positive.

After witnessing one strong person after another rise from the border battlefield and return home in glory, I realized that...

The cultivators throughout the Earthly Mystic Realm were greatly inspired and temporarily chose to forget the bloodshed and cruelty of the border battlefield.

He even developed a longing for the battlefields on the border between the two worlds.

Even the border battlefield service slots that were previously coveted by many cultivators in certain forces are now highly sought after.

Because if they are not serving cultivators, other cultivators who want to reach the border battlefield have to go there on their own.

However, for many mid- to low-level cultivators in various parts of the Earthly Profound Realm...

Even though their current city has a teleportation array that leads to the county seat.

However, in the current Earthly Mystic Realm, where the suppression of heaven and earth is extremely strong and widespread.

It wasn't easy for some of the cultivators from remote areas to travel to the prefectural city alone.

On the contrary, after obtaining a service quota for the border battlefield, powerful figures from the Earth Profound Realm Alliance will personally escort them to the border battlefield.

Therefore, the cultivators who were terrified by the bloodshed of the border battlefield between the two realms avoided the service slots on the border battlefield one by one.

Now, contrary to the norm, they want to go to the border battlefield to fight.

He fantasized about becoming the next person to rise from the frontier battlefield and eventually return home in glory.

In the centuries that preceded this.

Apart from families like the Shen family, which honestly send their own prodigies to the frontier battlefield.

In various parts of the Earthly Mystic Realm, there are still many clansmen sent to the border battlefields by various family forces. They are basically the kind of clansmen who are not well received.

Now, hundreds of years have passed, and of course, the vast majority of them perished on the frontier battlefield.

However, a very small number of people still rose to prominence on the border battlefield, making their families deeply regret their past actions.
