Building a long-lasting family lineage starting with genealogy

Chapter 440 The Return of the Phantom of Talent (8k views, please vote!)

In the ancient battlefield.

The "Xu Family Genealogy" in Xu Chuan's sea of ​​consciousness suddenly trembled.

"What's going on here?"

Xu Chuan's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly checked.

The light shone on Xu Mingwei's name flickered and gradually dimmed to the naked eye.

"What exactly did Mingwei do? How could he have caused such a stir in the family genealogy?!"

Xu Chuan suddenly realized something was wrong, and his expression changed abruptly. "Oh no, something must have happened to Dongxi!"

"【Celestial Mystery Dao Evolution】!"

After some calculations, the Xu family concluded that a demon clan was invading Dongxi and that Dongxi was on the verge of destruction.

Then came the calculation of the safety of the Xu clan members.

"It was a close call, but there were some casualties."

As for Xu Mingwei, even without calculation, Xu Chuan knew he was definitely fighting desperately.

"With Chi Longzi and Mo Wentian around, unless the three great demon lords of the 'Ten Thousand Mountains' attack together, Xu Mingwei wouldn't be in such a predicament."

With Dongxi destroyed, it seems that Dongxi's foundation has been destroyed in the battle.

However, the Xu family's important resources and even its inheritance are all gathered in the "Xu Family Grotto Heaven". At most, some spiritual fields, buildings, and the medicine garden of Bihan Pool have been destroyed.

The others added that it would be a pity if the herb garden at Bihan Pool were destroyed.

Xu Chuan sighed softly.

At least within the Azure Dragon Prefecture, among the Golden Core families, there are few that can surpass the Jade Cold Pool Herb Garden.

"Fortunately, the 'Withered and Flourishing Tree' has already been moved into the Xu Clan's Grotto-Heaven. If it had been destroyed, who knows where we could have found another one."

Through deduction and my own analysis.

Xu Chuan had roughly guessed what had happened in Dongxi.

However, what he didn't expect was that Xu Mingwei would be able to trigger the "Xu Family Genealogy".

"Yes, the prayer."

Xu Chuan instantly recalled the prayer that had long been forgotten.

In the beginning, Xu Mingwei and his family had to voluntarily drip blood to enter the family genealogy, and they also had to recite prayers to activate the "Xu Family Genealogy" in order to be granted the gift of talent.

Thus, Xu Chuan allocated his talents.

However, after advancing to the next level, the Xu family descendants no longer needed to do so.

This also resulted in no one knowing about the prayer.

"What exactly did Mingwei do to trigger the 'Xu Clan Genealogy'? Even burning his life essence and lifespan wouldn't have led to this."

Unless it's pure luck!

Xu Chuan's expression changed drastically. "Is he trying to sever his own path to enlightenment?!"

He could even guess Xu Mingwei's anger now.

"Stone, oh stone, is it worth risking your life for them just to hurt them?!"

Where have you placed the high hopes your father has placed on you?!

As Xu Mingwei continues to grow, he will surely have a place among the future great cultivators of the Xu family.

Even if he falls short, Xu Chuan will do everything in his power to help him become a Nascent Soul cultivator!
If the world changes drastically at that time, breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage is not impossible.

But now, in order to injure a fourth-tier demon lord, he has severed his own path and is fighting to the death with him.

Even knowing why Xu Mingwei acted this way, Xu Chuan still felt it was unwise.

Let alone injuring him, even killing a demon lord wouldn't be worth it!
In Xu Chuan's heart, the lives of the three fourth-order demon lords were not comparable to Xu Mingwei's path to enlightenment!

"After all, we've grown up and have our own path and what we believe in."

Xu Chuan felt heavy-hearted.

But it wasn't blaming Xu Mingwei; it was more anger towards the "Ten Thousand Mountains".

"The 'Ten Thousand Mountains,' very well, you've severed the path of a future great cultivator of my Xu clan. Our feud is now irreconcilable!"

The affairs of those imprisoned are not something that the "Ten Thousand Mountains" alone can decide.

They became "captives" simply because they happened to be the closest.

If there are huge benefits, Xu Chuan wouldn't mind keeping some of the monsters from the "Ten Thousand Mountains".

But now they have wiped out the Xu family of Dongxi.

This is tantamount to destroying the Xu family's century-long business and foundation.

If Xu Chuan hadn't started his own business early on and carved out a niche for himself in Tiannan...

If Xu Mingxian hadn't figured out the teleportation array...

It is likely that the Xu family is now completely destroyed, its foundation severed, with only a few Golden Core cultivators remaining.

Then, Xu Chuan made calculations about Xu Mingwei.

He breathed a sigh of relief after learning that he wouldn't die.

Even if one possesses the secrets of heaven, one cannot calculate everything in the world!

A place of imprisonment.

Dongxi.

The golden core within Xu Mingwei's body was like glass thrown into a blazing fire, bursting forth with an extremely brilliant pale golden light from within!

This light was not warm, but rather carried a scorching heat that could burn everything.

The immense magical power, as vast as the sea, erupted and boiled like an oil depot that had been ignited!
A pale golden flame burned on his body.

Xu Mingwei's momentum began to rise steadily, and his aura became stronger and stronger.

Mid-stage Golden Core, Late-stage Golden Core, Perfect Golden Core!

"Whoohoo-"

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth within a radius of dozens of miles frantically converged towards Xu Mingwei.

His aura soared straight to the sky.

The clouds in the sky were stirred up, forming a huge vortex around him.

The sunlight was distorted and blocked, and the sky and earth changed color.

The aura was so startling, so abrupt.

Tens of thousands of miles away, the Nascent Soul cultivators in the Blackwater and Tiannan regions surrounding the "Qinghai Forest" opened their eyes from their meditation and looked over.

"This aura... could it be that someone is about to form their Nascent Soul?" a mid-Nascent Soul cultivator asked.

"It doesn't seem like going from weak to strong, like ascending to heaven in one step. It's more like using a powerful secret technique, fighting a life-or-death battle."

"Interesting! There's actually such a Golden Core cultivator here. He didn't even enter the ancient battlefield. I wonder which family's prodigy he is!"

The person spoke as if asking a question, but it sounded more like a taunt.

They didn't even have the courage to enter the ancient battlefield.

All was quiet.

No one responded.

The journey to the ancient battlefield is nearing its end.

Everyone is waiting for their disciples to return.

While this gain is not absolute, it can certainly influence the future rise and fall of certain forces to some extent.

Dongxi.

The surge of spiritual energy subsided after a short while.

Xu Mingwei's rise in momentum has come to an end.

He stood suspended in mid-air.

His black robe fluttered in the air, and his once jet-black hair was now as white as frost, flying wildly in the wind.

However, he had taken a youth-preserving pill, so his face did not appear old.

Her eyes were as bright as the morning stars, yet as deep as a cold pool.

"So this is my talent?"

Xu Mingwei clearly felt his talent, strength, speed, and those special eagle eyes.

He looked down at his palms and clenched them loosely twice.

"His physical strength is close to that of a fourth-tier cultivator. His magical power seems to be just a little short of being comparable to a Nascent Soul cultivator, but they should be about the same."

His spirit was stronger than ever before, and his thoughts were clearer than ever before.

Xu Mingwei looked at the Nine Nether Sparrow Demon Lord, his pupils shrinking slightly.

With a flash of golden light in his pale gold eyes, he discovered several weaknesses in his opponent.

It must be a place where I or Mo Wentian had previously injured me.

It was obscured by feathers, so it was not clearly visible.

"My father said that supernatural powers can be combined, and when they are perfected, they can form a illusory image of a Dharma body. My talent should be able to do the same!"

"With magic as my body, strength as my bones, eagle eyes as my pupils, and speed as my enhancement!"

"Phantom of Talent, solidify!"

In an instant.

The situation around Xu Mingwei was once again in turmoil.

A phantom image, seven or eight feet tall, quickly solidified.

His face was obscured, but his posture was exactly the same as Xu Mingwei's at that moment.

Draw the bow, nock the arrow!
Although the phantom held no physical bow and arrow, it exuded a sharp and penetrating aura that was ready to be unleashed yet pierced through everything!

"A phantom image of the Dharma?!"

"wrong!"

Chi Longzi immediately retorted, secretly alarmed: What exactly has this kid figured out?!

The same applies to Mo Wentian.

"Nine Nether Bird! Do you dare to fight!"

Xu Mingwei's white hair danced wildly, and his voice was like the clanging of metal.

Gone was the anxiety and despair of before; only a chilling killing intent and an indomitable fighting spirit remained.

He slowly raised the "Precious Dragon Bow" in his hand.

The dragon pattern on the bow seemed to come alive, emitting an excited buzzing sound.

The "talent phantom" behind him also moved in sync.

opposite.

For the first time, a look of solemnity appeared in the eyes of the Nine Nether Sparrow Demon Lord.

The other party's aura actually made him feel threatened!
He shrunk his body to a dozen feet, making it easier to move and dodge.

"You're playing tricks! Die!"

The Nine Nether Sparrow let out a sharp cry, opened its huge mouth, and flapped its wings.

He used his innate supernatural powers once again.

The Nine Nether Black Wind transformed into a Nine Nether Sparrow, rushing towards Xu Mingwei like an arrow released from a bow.

"The Five Elements Revolve, Slaying Demons and Eliminating Evil—The Five Elements Demon-Slaying Arrow!"

Xu Mingwei drew his bow like a full moon, frantically pouring pale golden magic power into his fingertips.

The "Nine Heavenly Star Arrow" with the five elements attribute is nocked.

Five colors of light—gold, cyan, blue, red, and yellow—bloom and flow around each other, creating a mysterious and profound atmosphere.

The arrow shot out like a dragon, not in a straight line.

Instead, it traces mysterious trajectories in the air.

The last five arrows transformed into a single, enormous arrow, about ten feet long, radiating five-colored light.

And it merged once again with the five-colored arrows shot by the "Phantom of Talent"!
buzz~
The power of the five-colored arrows was increased several times over.

Xu Mingwei's attack possessed the power of a high-grade magic weapon used by someone in the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

Now, with its further enhancement, it unleashes a terrifying power no less than a full-force strike from a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.

Chi Longzi, Zhu Yan Demon Lord, Suanni Demon Lord, and Mo Wentian were all amazed.

The Nine Netherworld Sparrow, formed from the Nine Netherworld Black Wind, clashed with the five-colored arrows.

A terrifying shockwave swept around.

However, this arrow was still slightly inferior to the Nine Nether Sparrow Demon Lord's innate divine power.

Of course, the remaining attacks failed to harm Xu Mingwei, as he easily dodged them.

His speed was truly like lightning, his dodging and shifting as swift as an electric arc.

"Take this arrow! Seven Star Demon Suppression!"

This move, resembling the Big Dipper, still overlaps with the "Talent Illusion" attack, resulting in a surge in power.

The Nine Nether Sparrow Demon Lord once again unleashed his innate divine power.

This time, the two were evenly matched.

"Nine stars aligned, piercing through the clouds and sky!"

This is also a unique archery technique created by Xu Mingwei.

His movements were fluid and graceful, as if he had practiced them hundreds of times.

The bowstring vibrated repeatedly, and the nine "Nine Heavenly Star Arrows" were like nine stars strung together, moving at a speed that exceeded the limits of divine sense.

It pierced through the Nine Nether Sparrow's attack and shot through his left wing.

"This feeling!"

Xu Mingwei's heart stirred; it was as if he had grasped something.

I've experienced this before when practicing archery, but it's ten or a hundred times clearer now.

After unleashing his ultimate moves in succession, Xu Mingwei's face turned slightly pale.

Damn it!

Nine Nether Sparrow glanced at the pierced wound on his left wing, the blood flowing freely, which instantly enraged him.

It emitted a sharp screech.

Hundreds and thousands of black wind blades instantly condensed and shot towards Xu Mingwei like rain.

Xu Mingwei's eyes lit up with a golden light.

All the attacks seemed to slow down.

He strolled leisurely amidst the barrage of wind blades, easily dodging all the attacks.

At this time, Xu Mingwei's physical strength was not weak.

However, he was an archer and always maintained a certain distance from the Nine Nether Sparrow.

Even if he flaps his wings and approaches, Xu Mingwei will quickly dodge.

Normally, only the Nine Nether Sparrow would bully others with its speed, but at this moment, Xu Mingwei was no less skilled than him in close-range dodging and movement.

Of course, if we're comparing straight-line flight, it's definitely not as good as a flying beast like the Nine Nether Bird.

After watching the battle for a while, the Suanni Demon Lord also felt that Xu Mingwei was quite troublesome at this moment.

Although he was certain this situation wouldn't last long, he wanted to resolve it quickly to avoid further problems.

A fierce glint flashed in the eyes of the Suanni Demon Lord, and he suddenly opened his mouth and spat out a pale golden lightning bolt as thick as a bucket at Xu Mingwei's back!
"Young friend Xu, be careful!"

Mo Wentian was also constantly observing the battle situation.

After discovering the clues about the Suanni Demon Lord, he flashed behind Xu Mingwei with the "Xuan Turtle Shield".

The attack was blocked by the "Mystic Turtle Shield".

"Boom!"

The pale golden lightning struck the Xuan Turtle Shield squarely!

The already severely damaged shield let out a mournful cry of despair, its surface cracks instantly widening and spreading, and its aura completely dimmed.

Although it wasn't completely shattered, it was almost as good as a half-ruined magic weapon.

Mo Wentian was accidentally struck by the scattered electric arcs.

He immediately spat out a mouthful of blood, and his breath quickened instantly.

After all, this is the innate divine power of the Suanni Demon Lord, and its power is definitely no weaker than the Nine Nether Black Wind.

"Fellow Daoist Mo!"

Chi Longzi's expression changed slightly, and he immediately made a hand seal, causing the "Crimson Dragon Pearl" to shine brightly.

It transformed into a streak of crimson light, enveloping Mo Wentian and sending him to the ground.

The Suanni Demon Lord glared fiercely at Mo Wentian.

But at this moment, he was protected by the "Crimson Dragon Pearl" and could do nothing about it.

Xu Mingwei glanced at the Suanni Demon Lord and said coldly, "That's all the tricks you have."

"One against two? What's wrong with that!"

He let out a long roar and unleashed his movement technique.

It left trails of black afterimages in the air, moving at an astonishing speed.

The bowstring vibrated incessantly as arrows rained down on the two demons.

The Nine Nether Sparrow Demon Lord no longer refused the Suanni Demon Lord's help, and the two joined forces to attack.

The three of them moved and dodged in the air, and before they knew it, they were in the airspace above Qingjiang County. Soon after, they arrived at a wilderness.

He stopped using his ultimate moves and instead used normal attacks, using this battle to seek that mysterious and profound artistic conception.

Xu Mingwei's attack at this moment posed a considerable threat to them.

In addition, its speed is not inferior.

Therefore, even if the two joined forces, they could not defeat Xu Mingwei in a short time.

"The Way of Archery, what is the Way of Archery?"

During the fierce battle, Xu Mingwei's mind entered a strange state of clarity.

All my past understanding of archery came flooding back into my mind.

He started practicing archery a century ago!
Various insights, whimsical ideas, and inspirations constantly emerge, collide, and merge.

"UI."

"The way of archery is even more so."

"Speed ​​is its lifeblood. As long as it's fast enough, so fast that the enemy's divine sense can't catch it, so fast that space itself seems to overlap."

Xu Chuan shot arrow after arrow.

"No, it's not fast enough!"

"Even faster!"

"Faster!"

"Faster!"

In an instant.

A profound and mysterious artistic conception emerged.

Xu Mingwei had a flash of inspiration and once again used the Nine Stars Alignment technique, entangling this artistic conception around the "Nine Stars Alignment".

When the Nine Nether Sparrow Demon Lord saw Xu Mingwei pointing at him, he immediately tried to dodge.

But all he heard was the sound of strings. The next instant.

Blood rained down on the earth.

The Suanni Demon Lord was horrified and even forgot to attack for a moment.

"Wow!!!"

The Nine Nether Sparrow suddenly let out a mournful cry that was extremely painful.

His left wing was torn apart by Xu Mingwei's attack, and he fell to the ground.

The Nine Nether Bird lost a wing, and its massive body lost its balance in the air, shaking violently. Its demonic energy instantly became chaotic and plummeted!

Xu Mingwei let out a long breath.

We must attack the Nine Nether Sparrow Demon Lord again.

Upon seeing this, the Suanni Demon Lord immediately swung his claws, forming a lightning net that enveloped Xu Mingwei.

Xu Mingwei had no choice but to move aside and dodge.

Then, the Suanni Demon Lord transformed into a bolt of lightning and fled far away with the Nine Nether Sparrow Demon Lord.

Xu Mingwei swayed slightly, put away his spoils, and gave chase.

"Zhu Yan, Jiu You is seriously injured, let's go!"

Zhu Yan, the demon lord who was fighting Chi Longzi, suddenly changed his expression when he saw the miserable state of Jiu You Que.

"How is this possible? How could someone below the Nascent Soul stage severely injure the Nine Nether Sparrow like this!"

"I don't know what that person did, I only know that his arrow was so fast that it was impossible to dodge. It was shot out, but it seemed to disappear. Then the left wing of Jiuyou was torn apart."

"Although he cannot last long, if he happens to fire again, this time not at the left wing but at the head, then he will truly perish here."

Zhu Yan glanced at the sweat-drenched Chi Longzi, then at the severely injured and pale Mo Wentian, and immediately pounded his chest and roared in anger.

"Damn it, even a Nascent Soul cultivator couldn't stop us, but we were forced to retreat by a mere Golden Core cultivator!"

"That person has burned a large amount of his lifespan and his life is nearing its end. Moreover, his path to immortality has been severed. It is not a wasted trip to lose such a human prodigy!"

After all, if he were to grow stronger and truly enter the Nascent Soul stage, and fully comprehend that move, he might even be able to defeat a great cultivator!

call out!
Another arrow came flying.

The Suanni Demon Lord harbored a deep-seated fear and immediately dodged.

Zhu Yan no longer hesitated and left with the Suanni Demon Lord and the Nine Nether Sparrow Demon Lord.

Only a few breaths later.

Xu Mingwei then arrived at this spot.

He watched the departing figure, but made no attempt to chase after it.

Although he failed to kill it, he left behind one wing of the fourth-tier transformed demon lord, the Nine Nether Sparrow, which he felt was enough to give Xu Chuan an explanation.

"However, Father will probably give me a good scolding."

He was prepared to be severely reprimanded by Xu Chuan.

Just a moment.

Xu Mingwei's aura began to decline rapidly.

There was even an aura of gloom surrounding him.

Mo Wentian gazed at the figure in the air, as if he were seeing Xu Chuan.

"As long as the Xu family is around, my Mo family will never have a chance to rise to prominence, but we might as well take advantage of their influence to rise up!"

As for Chi Longzi, he sighed, "Another monstrous genius, it's a pity he'll perish so young."

That aura of gloom could not escape the perception of the Nascent Soul cultivator.

In this battle, Xu Mingwei clearly burned more than five hundred years of his lifespan.

With the onset of old age, his remaining lifespan will not exceed twenty or thirty years.

But Xu Mingwei has never regretted it.

His gaze swept over the wrecked cave stream, his eyes filled with sorrow.

"The great calamity of a thousand years has indeed been unavoidable by any force!"

"In the eyes of others, my Dongxi Xu clan should be the same as other forces, and have been wiped out."

Xu Mingqing and his group will not reappear in Dongxi.

They will be directly teleported to Yunxi City in Canglong Prefecture after this event concludes.

Chi Longzi put away his magic weapon and flew to Xu Mingwei's side, while Mo Wentian also flew over leisurely.

Looking at Xu Mingwei's full head of white hair, the two of them couldn't help but sigh with regret.

"Young friend Xu, do not be sad. At least most of the Golden Core cultivators of your Dongxi Xu Clan are in the ancient battlefield. They are the foundation for your Xu family's survival."

As long as they return safely.

"In a few decades, your Xu family will once again be prosperous and flourishing!"

Xu Mingwei sighed inwardly, "My Xu family's Golden Core cultivators haven't been studs for many years!"
If we rely on them, it will probably take hundreds of years.

Mo Wentian also comforted him: "What Fellow Daoist Chilongzi said is true. It is not your fault that the Xu Clan of Dongxi is at fault."

Even if the Grand Elder returns, he will not reprimand you.

Upon hearing this, Xu Mingwei cupped his hands to the two men and said, "Seniors, I am very grateful for your help this time!"
They probably won't come back. You two should both get some rest.

Chi Longzi and Mo Wentian exchanged a glance, nodded slightly, found a large rock nearby, sat cross-legged, and began to meditate.

Xu Mingwei simultaneously swallowed a top-grade "Jade Void Pill" and a top-grade "Nine-Turn Rejuvenation Pill".

Two hours later, they stopped.

Instead, they walked along the Dongxi River and finally arrived at the only intact spot in the river—Bihan Pool.

The restrictions on this place have been largely destroyed.

He looked at the medicinal garden that Xu Chuan had gradually developed into what it is today, the garden full of spiritual herbs, and the rows of bamboo houses.

These bamboo houses were created from scratch and gradually increased in number.

I witnessed the rise of the Xu family!

After a while.

He remembered something and immediately sent a message to Xu Mingqing: "The Demon Lord has retreated and everything is fine. You should stay there for a while."

Everything will be arranged after Father returns.

After a slight pause, he added, "Make sure everything is arranged properly, and don't cause any chaos."

A short while later.

Xu Mingqing replied, "Yes, brother."

there.

After Xu Mingqing finished sending the message, he looked at Bai Jing, Yang Ronghua, Xu Dezhao, Xu Chonghui and others beside him and said, "Big brother is fine, so don't worry."

Father will return soon.

They will make arrangements for us.

As for now, Chonghui, you are the head of the Xu family. You need to appease all parties and prevent any chaos.

But if anyone dares to harbor disloyal thoughts, they need not be kept alive.

"Yes, Sixth Grand Uncle."

Bai Jing sighed, "I wonder what has become of Dongxi now."

"Mother, don't worry. At most, some buildings will be damaged. As long as my Xu family is safe, that's all that matters."

Bai Jing nodded slightly upon hearing this and left with Yang Ronghua's help.

------------

Ancient battlefield.

A spatial fluctuation inexplicably surged around each person, enveloping them.

No one resisted.

Instead, they all showed relieved smiles.

"Finally, we can go out."

Almost at the same time.

Everyone was immediately teleported out of the ancient battlefield.

Mei Yun's location is unique, but his "ancestor" is incredibly powerful, able to bring him here and also send him out.

A sudden dizziness.

Xu Chuan reappeared near the Great Wei Imperial Palace.

He scanned it with his divine sense.

Only a few people survived, for reasons unknown.

"A thousand-year-old civilization, wiped out in a single day, what a terrible calamity!"

Xu Chuan didn't look any further, his expression calm. He then used his escape technique to transform into a streak of green light and head towards Dongxi.

at the same time.

After confirming their location, the rest of the Xu family also headed towards Dongxi.

When you encounter people, try to give them a wide berth.

This trip can now be considered over.

Soon, all the factions will enter and summon the survivors back.

Engaging in battle at this time would be extremely unwise.

Great Jin Dynasty.

"Am I destined to become a demonic cultivator?"

Xu Dewen sighed softly when he saw that he was in the Great Jin Dynasty after he came out.

Then, gazing into the distance towards Dongxi, he murmured to himself, "Grandfather, your grandson will not let you down. He will fight for a voice for the Xu family in the Blackwater Region!"

The melancholy quickly vanished, replaced by an anticipation for the future.

A little over half an hour.

Xu Chuan returned to Dongxi.

They ran into Ye Fan on the way.

He was relatively lucky; when he was teleported out, he was near the Immortal Martial Alliance headquarters.

"Master."

Ye Fan clasped his hands in a fist salute.

Xu Chuan nodded, and the two returned to Dongxi together.

"I'm back."

Chi Longzi suddenly opened his eyes, as did Mo Wentian.

Xu Mingwei was nearby at the time, and upon hearing this, he looked towards the distant horizon.

really.

In just a few breaths.

Then, two streaks of light, one blue and one red, rapidly approached from afar.

Ye Fan was dumbfounded, staring in disbelief at the distant Dongxi, a scene of utter devastation, no different from any other place.

"Master, this..."

Xu Chuan transmitted his voice, saying, "The great calamity of a thousand years is inevitable. Do not say anything more."

"Yes, Master."

Upon landing, Xu Chuan first bowed to Chi Longzi and Mo Wentian, saying, "Thank you for your help, Senior Chi Longzi and Elder Taishang."

"Aren't you surprised?" Red Dragon Prince asked in confusion.

"Xu had some guesses, but ultimately he was one step behind."

Chilongzi understood what he meant and comforted him, "You have done enough. It can only be said that man proposes, God disposes."

The three demon lords descended, and if it weren't for this young friend Xu's last act of turning the tide, the battle would probably still be raging.

"I, Xu, would like that."

Chi Longzi was slightly taken aback, unsure of what he meant.

He swept past Chi Longzi and walked towards Xu Mingwei.

When Ye Fan saw Xu Mingwei's appearance and the faint air of weariness around him, his heart sank and his eyes stung.

He couldn't imagine what Xu Mingwei had sacrificed to protect Dongxi.

"Father."

When Xu Mingwei saw Xu Chuan walking silently towards him, he felt a little uneasy. He then clasped his hands in a fist and bowed his head, not daring to look at him.

Xu Chuan walked to his side, patted him on the shoulder, and sighed, "You have not let your father down and have protected my Xu family."

Xu Mingwei suddenly looked up and met Xu Chuan's eyes.

"But as your father, I hope you can be a little more selfish and take care of yourself."

“I understand, but there are some things I must do.”

Xu Chuan sighed softly, "Now that I am here, leave everything to me. As for lifespan, we can find a way to make up for it when it's gone."

"Yes, Father."

Afterwards, Xu Chuan told Chi Longzi about his encounter with the disciples of the Tianzhu Sect on the ancient battlefield.

"I didn't expect you to run into that kid Bai Lian. Since it was Lie Yang and Bai Lian's own idea, then you can't be blamed."

Whether they live or die depends entirely on their own will.

As for what I promised you, my Heavenly Forging Sect will keep it.

"Tell me now what kind of magical artifact you desire, and I will inform my senior brother when I return."

"No need. When Deling returns to the Heavenly Forging Sect in the future, he will bring the magic weapon and materials he has refined."

"Very well." Chi Longzi then asked, "How is my good disciple?"

"I am well, and I have learned a lot from this trip."

Later.

Xu Chuan then said to Mo Wentian, "Elder, our previous transaction ends here."

Mo Wentian nodded.

"However, you can inform me of your losses this time, and my Xu family will make compensation."

"This is my duty, but unfortunately I am still not strong enough to protect the bloodline of Elder Mo."

"This has nothing to do with you."

Xu Mingwei said, "Father, Senior Mo's top-grade defensive magic treasure is almost damaged. If it can be repaired, please let Deling repair it."

If that's not possible, we'll consider other forms of compensation.

"What does the Supreme Elder think?"

"Then I'll trouble you."

Xu Chuan accepted the magic weapon.

Suddenly, a phoenix cry was heard from afar.

"Ling'er is back." Chi Longzi smiled.

After a while.

Xu Deling emerged from the crimson rainbow with an icy demeanor.

She couldn't believe it, only three months.

Dongxi was destroyed in an instant!
"how so!"

Looking at the devastation in Dongxi, Xu Deling momentarily forgot to greet his master and grandfather.

"Have they lost all manners?" Xu Mingwei suddenly said in a deep voice.

"I'm sorry, Father," Xu Deling said, clasping his hands in a fist salute.

"Young friend Xu, wait a minute. Ling'er, what did you call him? Is he your father?"

Xu Chuan smiled and said, "There's no need to worry about this."

then.

Xu Deling greeted everyone with a bow.

Within one hour.

The Xu family members returned one after another.

Mei Yun was the last to arrive.

Red Dragon Prince looked them over, his heart filled with astonishment, "Not a single one is missing?!"

"Are they a group at the early stage of Golden Core, or a group at the peak of Golden Core?"

"However, I didn't expect that Ling'er is Xu Mingwei's daughter. Does that mean that Ling'er came from a place of confinement? Wait, Xu Chuan, and the entire Xu family of Yunxi, all came from here?"
Where did the rumor that the Xu family are remnants of a Nascent Soul cultivation family come from?

After thinking it over, Chilongzi stopped worrying about it.

The Xu family has already established a powerful presence in Tiannan.

Having come from a prison background is nothing special.

Even if some forces want to investigate, given the Xu family's current connections, even top Nascent Soul forces would have to consider whether it's worth it to make a move.

soon.

A horn sounded and its echoes reached Dongxi.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound.

Chi Longzi said, "Let's go, Fellow Daoist Xu, it's time to gather. If you want to leave, you can go with the others."

Xu Chuan asked, "Is that the sound of a horn?"

"This was emitted by a top-tier magic weapon, belonging to the Feathered Ascension Sect. When this horn sounds, everyone gathers, signifying the end of this mission."

However, all parties also allowed people to stay for another ten days or half a month.

For example, recruiting one or two decent disciples.

Of course, if one's strength is insufficient, the journey back will not be easy, and trouble could easily arise.

Xu Chuan understood what he meant.

First, the territory of the monsters they passed through; second, those interested in what others had gained on their journey.

Xu Chuan, Xu Mingwei, Xu Mingyuan, and others, including Mo Wentian and Yang Qi, went with Chi Long.

"I wonder how Elder Bingqian and Fellow Daoist Lei are doing now?"

On the way, Yang Qi suddenly sighed.

"If we see them at the rendezvous point, that's fine. If not, there's a good chance they died in the ancient battlefield," Xu Chuan said calmly.

"Elder, is it really that dangerous inside? Those two are both experts who have reached the Golden Core stage and mastered supernatural powers!"

Even among all the Golden Core cultivators in my Azure Dragon Palace, he would rank among the top five.

"To put it simply, those who survived in the ancient battlefields generally fall into three categories: those who were lucky, those who were cautious, and those who were extremely powerful."

Of course, many people may fit two or three of these criteria.

As for the formidable strength Xu mentioned, he meant possessing the combat power of a Nascent Soul cultivator.
