The Mysterious Immortal Clan: Rising from the moment I died!

"stop!"

A group of Ni family members stared intently at Ni Kun as he walked toward the door of the secret chamber, their eyes filled with anxiety and worry.

They shouted in unison, urgently trying to stop them: "You can't go in!"

Yes, people who go astray in their practice often lose their reason and become extremely violent and dangerous.

Moreover, Ni Kun is merely a mortal; how could he so easily take risks?

However, Ni Kun remained calm and composed in the face of everyone's dissuasion.

"Don't worry!"

He slowly turned around, a reassuring smile appearing on his lips, and gently waved his hand to dissuade Ni Yongxiao and the others who wanted to go in with him.

A moment later.

"Click click click..."

With a dull thud, the massive stone door to the secret chamber began to slowly close.

Ni Kun's figure was gradually swallowed up by the secret room and eventually disappeared completely from everyone's sight.

"Sigh... Ah Kun, barging in like this, I'm afraid he'll meet with some misfortune?" Someone couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

"What a pity... Ah Kun is probably in grave danger this time!" Another person echoed, shaking their head and making a pessimistic prediction.

However, many of Ah Kun's die-hard fans do not think so.

"That may not be the case... After all, the Ancestor has manifested his power through Ah Kun many times before!"

"Yeah...maybe Ah Kun can create another miracle this time!"

Just as everyone was discussing it.

A deafening roar followed—"Boom!"

Suddenly.

The clouds in the sky seemed to be enraged, churning violently and becoming extremely chaotic and volatile. Sometimes they would gather together to form thick, dark clouds, and at other times they would disperse into wispy, gauze-like clouds.

Just then.

"Whoosh!"

Accompanied by a sharp, piercing sound of wind being cut.

Ni Yongshuang swiftly reached the top of the secret chamber, then gracefully leaped down, landing steadily in front of Ni Yongxiao: "Fourth Brother!"

A moment later.

When she learned that Ah Kun had already entered and witnessed the terrifying scene of the clouds, her heart tightened.

"Ugh!"

Ni Yongshuang's face showed a solemn expression, and she couldn't help but complain, "Fourth Brother, Ah Kun is just a mortal after all. How can you let him do whatever he wants..." The last few words were spoken so softly that they were almost inaudible, as if only she herself could hear them.

at the same time.

Ni Kun had already entered the secret room and immediately saw Ni Yongci with disheveled hair, bloodshot and crimson eyes, and an extremely chaotic and disordered aura. He looked extremely emotional and very unstable.

This moment.

The last vestige of reason in Ni Yongci's mind kept reminding her that the people who had entered the secret room were definitely her family members who cared about her.

She couldn't bear to hurt either of them, but she was also worried that if she lost control of herself, she might cause some irreparable serious consequences and wrongdoings.

then.

Gasping for breath, Ni Yongci shouted at the top of his lungs, "Go! Get out of here!"

however.

Despite Ni Yongci's warnings and attempts to drive him away, Ni Kun showed no intention of stopping or backing down.

In the blink of an eye, the two were already very close.

"ah......"

Just as Ni Yongci was letting out a painful scream, and the situation was about to completely spiral out of control.

"Aci!"

A voice that was both familiar and unfamiliar reached her ears.

"Thump!"

Ni Yongci's body trembled violently, and a strong sense of doubt welled up in his heart—I think I just heard my father's voice?

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

She gasped for breath, trying her best to suppress the unease and restlessness surging within her.

Several breaths later.

Ni Yongci forced himself to stay awake, his eyes glazed over as he looked at Ni Kun, and said in a trembling voice, "Who...who are you? Why do you call me that?"

At that moment, even the air seemed to suffocate.

A few more breaths passed.

"Aci!"

Ni Kun called out softly again, reaching out to gently pinch the other person's earlobe.

That all-too-familiar touch struck Ni Yongci's soul like a bolt of lightning!

In an instant.

She seemed frozen in place, unable to move.

At this moment.

A scene from her childhood vividly appeared in her mind.

That year, her parents sent her to a little-known, second-rate sect to cultivate.

When it was time to leave, she cried her heart out, not wanting to part with her parents and fearing that she would lose them forever.

"Aci!"

Her father pulled her into a tight embrace, and pointed earnestly at the sect, saying, "Aci... only by cultivating immortality can you live a long and healthy life, and stay with your parents forever!"

After saying that, her father pinched her little earlobe as usual: "Aci, you're the most obedient!"

Unexpectedly, this cultivation lasted for sixty years!

When she saw her family again, all that remained was her father, who had endured many hardships and humiliations.

As for herself, for various reasons, she remained trapped at the bottleneck of the Qi Refining Realm, unable to break through. She often wondered, "In this life, joining a sect has ruined my life. Was seeking immortality and enlightenment ultimately right or wrong?"

This problem weighed heavily on her heart like a stone, becoming a persistent inner demon.

Just then.

A gentle voice called out in her ears: "Aci!"

Ni Kun gently pinched her earlobe again, as if trying to wake her from her slumber.

This familiar yet unfamiliar touch made Ni Yongci's body tremble slightly.

She stared blankly at Ni Kun, her eyes revealing a complex emotion that was hard to describe.

Although she was still somewhat dazed at the moment, the turmoil in her heart was slowly subsiding.

Time passed second by second.

Finally, Ni Yongci completely broke free from the torment of her inner demons, and her previously empty and lifeless eyes began to regain their luster.

"Tick-tock! Tick-tock..."

Crystalline tears rolled down her cheeks, blurring her vision.

Those tears, filled with endless pain and longing, slid down her face, which was no longer young and innocent, and dripped onto the cold ground with a crisp sound.

Ni Yongci's lips trembled, and her throat seemed to be blocked by something, only able to utter intermittent sobs. It seemed that she had countless words she wanted to say, but did not know how to start...

"Aci!"

Looking at the three girls in front of him, Ni Kun's eyes reddened. Sending the three young girls to the sect was an extremely difficult decision for the couple, and also a helpless move.

However, even now, when facing his beloved daughter who has been obedient since childhood, he still can't help but feel a pang of guilt...

"Father!"

Ni Yongci suddenly threw herself into Ni Kun's arms, shouting at the top of her lungs, as if she wanted to shout out all the suffering she had endured over the years.

Tears!

Tears, buried by time, now poured down like a flood, and she kept sobbing, "Waaah..."

For so many years, the grievances and resentments that had been suppressed under her loving care were finally released...

After a long while.

Ni Yongci's crying gradually subsided. She gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, her voice slightly choked: "Originally, it was to fulfill the promise I made to you, Father, that I was so determined to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage!"

Speaking of it.

She paused for a moment, a bitter smile appearing on her lips.

"But just as I was about to break through, I suddenly felt I should give up, because at that moment, I wanted to find you and Mother!"
