Eternal Beast Taming Family

Chu Shengfan, being far from his family, rapidly advanced to the Spirit Rank, which led him to become a Spirit Rank Source Artifact, thus earning him this spot.

Chu Jingyu, as the current patriarch of the family, is getting on in years, but he has always been a pillar of the family, so he deserves a share.

The new ability "Ten Thousand Miles Book" is a very timely ability for the Chu family now. Even if Chu Shengfan is thousands of miles away, he can still communicate with the family in a timely manner.

Moreover, its uses are not limited to this; it can even be used as a communication tool during hunting operations outside the designated area.

Although it is very practical, it is not a special ability. After all, some special source beasts in this world can also transmit messages. It's just that this "Ten Thousand Mile Book" is more stable and convenient.

Only the last ability, "The Essence of All Things," gave Chu Mu a pleasant surprise. It allowed him to view information about other items. Any transmigrator could understand how important it was to have enough information.

Think about it, when you fight against other contract masters, you already know exactly how many source beasts your opponent has, what level each source beast is in, and what kind of abilities it has.

When encountering rare and precious treasures, one can quickly ascertain their purpose. In short, the ability to access information is an extremely important and unique skill.

Chu Mu stood in the main hall, surrounded by clusters of colorful silk threads forming flowers. He wondered when these strange, conjured scenes would dissipate.

Chu Mu looked up at the outside of the hall. The bright moon hung coldly in the sky; it must be late at night.

It seems that the matter of condensing the seed of talent can only be considered tomorrow. Right now, he mainly needs to check the "Clan Chronicles" to see how long he has been asleep and what has happened during his slumber.

Family Chronology

……

December 3398, 5

Chu Shengfan successfully advanced to become a Spirit Rank Contract Master, and the Chu family thus successfully advanced to become an eighth-rank aristocratic family. Due to this advancement, the spirit of the Source Artifact, Chu Mu, entered a state of transformation.

December 3398, 5

Tang Cheng reached a consensus with Chu Jingyu on the matter of Qixia Town, acknowledging Qixia Town's status as a new town in Heyu Town, and providing strong support for the construction of Qixia Town.

December 3398, 6

The three major eighth-rank families of the county—the Shen, Li, and Fu families—dispatched two mid-level Spirit Rank and four low-level Spirit Rank Contract Masters to besiege the Chu family. This resulted in damage to the Chu family residence and the destruction of much of their property.

Upon seeing this, Chu Mu was suddenly startled. He seemed to understand why the ancestral hall had undergone such changes.

However, now that he is able to stay safely in the newly built ancestral hall, the situation of the family should have stabilized. Chu Mu composed himself and quickly looked down.

On the same day, Chu Shengfan returned home from Qianlingfu City. His Domain-level guards intervened and prevented a potential disaster from happening in his home.

Chu Shengfan arrived in Zhiyao County to question the three major families. He used the Bloodline Yin Silk Gu to force the three families into slave contracts, making them obligated to support the Chu family for generations to come. The ringleader was executed.

December 3398, 6

In the early morning, Chu Mu, the spirit of the Source Artifact, awoke from his slumber.

(Having survived the crisis of family annihilation, upgraded the Source Artifact, and increased the family's fortune, a total of 10,000 Source Spirits were awarded as a reward.)

After reading the "Family Chronicles," Chu Mu was shocked to realize that he had been asleep for a full five days. Although the time was not very long, so many major events had occurred in succession for the Chu family.

However, Chu Shengfan's return is just in time. He can bestow the Seed of Talent upon him, and as the most promising Contract Master seed in the family to advance to the Domain Rank, he will also be given some special abilities.

Chu Shengfan's gaze fell on the reward of 10,000 Source Spirits, then he spent a while looking at his own meager 1587 Source Spirits balance, a look of extreme confusion on his face.

"Where is my reward of 10,000 Source Spirits? Surely I didn't end up owing more than 8,000 Source Spirits while I was asleep?"

He looked up at the sky speechlessly. "Give me the source spirit if you want, don't just leave a number there and make people envious."

Just as Chu Mu was thinking this, the spiritual herbs and flowers formed from the colorful silk threads in the entire hall slowly decomposed into pure colorful silk threads, and then returned to the "Nameless Book" floating beside Chu Mu.

Under Chu Mu's gaze, the Yuanling balance on the "Nameless Book" instantly changed from 1587 to 11587 points.

Chu Mu's lips twitched. The slap in the face came rather quickly. He clasped his hands together and waved them toward the heavens and earth, muttering under his breath, "Don't blame me, don't blame me."

Family Reputation: 300 points (Prestige over Paper Hawk County)

Family fortune: Green, Three Inches (The family fortune is long-lasting, and the probability of having a child with high aptitude increases slightly)

For the Chu family, after being promoted to an eighth-rank aristocratic family, they gained a new category of servant families, with three eighth-rank aristocratic families serving as servants of the Chu family.

The luck trait has also changed from white to cyan. Although it has become shorter, a new entry has been added.

The probability of having a child with high aptitude has increased slightly. Chu Mu liked this entry, although he didn't know exactly how high the probability was.

However, the future of the family always depends on people, and outstanding next generations are the best asset. He really wants more prodigies like Chu Shengfan and people with great fortune like Chu Shengyuan.

Or perhaps the Chu family's fortunes weren't too bad to begin with, so each of the three children had their own strengths.

……

January 3, 3398, early morning.

It was almost no time after sunrise, and the Chu family had just finished breakfast when Chu Mu's voice rang in Chu Jingyu's ears.

"Bring Xiao Fan to the ancestral hall to see me."

The voice was calm, yet it made Chu Jingyu almost stand up from his seat.

And he did just that. Chu Jingyu ignored the surprised expressions of the other monks because of his sudden action, and stared intently at Chu Shengfan.

"Xiao Fan, come with me to the ancestral hall. Ancestor Chu has woken up and wants to see you."
