A Second Assault on the Geng-Metal Earth Vein

After his cultivation was completely consolidated, Chen Nianzhi finally emerged from the Seclusion Chamber.

As soon as he stepped outside, he discovered that Chen Xianyan and her brother had been waiting for a long time. Xian Yan said with a joyful expression.

Congratulations, Uncle Nianzhi!

"Congratulations to Uncle Nianzhi on breaking through to the Purple Mansion."

Hearing the two offer their congratulations, Chen Nianzhi smiled as well. As the first Purple Mansion cultivator in the history of the Chen Immortal Clan, this joyous occasion was worthy of celebration by the entire clan.

People are in high spirits when they have good news. He first rewarded the two of them with a thousand Clan Merit, and then said, "Cultivate yourselves well, and you will have this day one day too."

"We will try our best."

The two siblings were greatly encouraged and excitedly clenched their fists.

These two siblings are twelve years younger than Chen Nianzhi. They reached the Foundation Establishment Foundation Establishment at the age of twenty-eight or twenty-nine, and are now only fifty-one years old. Thanks to the favorable environment they have enjoyed over the years, their cultivation has progressed very quickly.

Last year, they exchanged several Origin-Breaking Pill and took the opportunity to break through to the Foundation Establishment Fourth Layer, which can be said to be a very rapid progress.

At this rate of cultivation progress, as long as the Lineage prepares a few Qingyuan Pill for them, the two of them should be able to reach the Foundation Establishment Grand Completion before they turn one hundred years old, and begin their attempt to break through to the Purple Mansion Realm.

By then, they will have ample lifespan and at least four opportunities to break through to the Purple Mansion, so their chances of successfully cultivating to the Purple Mansion should be very high.

In fact, the Chen Clan is now full of talented people, and the Foundation Establishment cultivators in the clan are all quite young.

Even the oldest of them, Chen Qinghao and Chen Qingwan, are still a year or two short of turning 100.

These two elders of the Qing Generation grew up during the most difficult sixty years of the Lineage. They knew how hard-won the current cultivation resources were, so they cultivated much more diligently than the Foundation Establishment cultivators in the Lineage.

They have now cultivated to the peak of the Foundation Establishment Fifth Layer, and it is estimated that they will be able to break through to the Foundation Establishment Seventh Layer in about fifteen years. Before their lifespan is exhausted, they will also have three opportunities to attempt to break through to the Purple Mansion.

The other newly promoted Foundation Establishment Elders are no older than seventy or eighty, and they have at least a hundred years of lifespan ahead of them.

This doesn't even include the Spirit Apricot, a treasure that increases lifespan. Only three lifespan-increasing treasures are used in a lifetime, Chen Nianzhi could only hope they would use them as late as possible, because the Spirit Apricot Tree's grade would become higher and higher in the future.

Anyone who sees such Lineage would admire their vibrant energy and believe they possess immense potential.

Suppressing her joy, Chen Nianzhi glanced at the two of them and then gave instructions.

"I'm going to Yuyang City to see the Old Clan Leader."

"Until then, you all guard Spirit Lake Isle well, and don't announce my breakthrough yet."

The two nodded, and Chen Xianling quickly said, "Understood."

"..."

After leaving Spirit Isle Lake, Chen Nianzhi flew to Peaceful Sun City on her sword.

After breaking through to the Purple Mansion, a distance of six thousand miles would only take him two hours.

Not long after, he arrived in Peaceful Sun City and met the Old Clan Leader.

"Okay, okay!"

Upon seeing him, the Old Clan Leader burst into three excited laughs.

He patted Chen Nianzhi on the shoulder, unable to contain his excitement, and said, "You've broken through to the Purple Mansion at such a young age; the Golden Core realm stage might not even be your final destination."

"With a prodigy like you in our Chen Clan, we are destined for great prosperity."

Chen Changxuan was excited for a long time before he calmed down. Then, he asked Chen Nianzhi, "Now that you've broken through to the Purple Mansion, are you confident you can handle that Geng-Metal Demon Spirit at the Mid-Purple Mansion realm?"

"Don't worry, Old Granduncle." Chen Nianzhi smiled and took out the Great Geng Immortal Sword, saying, "Please take a look at this sword."

"This is..." Chen Changxuan's eyes widened suddenly, and he said with great joy, "What a fine sword! With this sword in hand, I can certainly deal with that Purple Mansion Demon Spirit."

"You go and hold off that Mid-Purple Mansion realm demon spirit. The clan elders and I will activate the two treasure ships to besiege the other demon spirit. That should be enough to kill the Early Purple Mansion realm demon spirit."

"We are confident we can capture the Geng-Metal Earth Vein." Chen Nianzhi nodded and said with a smile, "Let's act quickly."

Just two days later, the Chen Clan members gathered again in front of the Geng-Metal Earth Vein.

Having ascertained the strength of the demonic spirits within the Geng-Metal Earth Vein, the Chen Clan is now prepared to go all out.

In addition to Chen Changxuan and Chen Nianzhi, the Lineage also mobilized ten Foundation Establishment elders, including Chen Qinghao, Chen Qingwan, and Chen Xianling, for this battle.

In this battle, the ten Foundation Establishment elders will be responsible for activating two Tier 3 treasure ships to assist the Old Clan Leader in besieging the Early Purple Mansion realm demon spirits, while Chen Nianzhi will be responsible for dealing with the Mid-Purple Mansion realm demon spirits.

As for the Qi Refinement Stage cultivators, after discussion, everyone decided not to let them participate, as their Qi Refining Cultivator level was too low, and they often couldn't even withstand the aftershocks of a battle at the Purple Mansion stage.

If one rashly participates in a war between cultivators of the Purple Mansion realm, even with the protection of formations, casualties are inevitable.

Since the power of a Foundation Establishment cultivator in the Purple Mansion realm is sufficient to deal with these Purple Mansion demon spirits, there is naturally no need to put them at risk.

Before the Geng-Metal Earth Vein, Chen Nianzhi informed everyone of the battle plan and then spoke.

"Let's prepare to begin."

As his words fell, the array that had been set up for a long time was activated again, and beams of light illuminated the sky and tore open the Geng-Metal Earth Vein.

"A swift and decisive victory."

As the Earth Vein opened, Chen Nianzhi leaped into the air with his sword and was the first to fly in. The others followed closely behind, piloting their treasure boats into the Geng-Metal Earth Vein.

After entering the Earth Vein, the group did not linger for a moment and went straight for the core of the Earth Vein.

In just a short while, the group arrived at the core mountain range.

The group made no attempt to conceal their presence, creating quite a stir along the way. The Geng-Metal Demon Spirit naturally noticed their approach and immediately emerged from the Earth Vein to attack.

"Boom--"

Upon seeing that the newcomer was Chen Nianzhi, the Mid-Purple Mansion realm demon leader angrily unleashed a Yang-Metal Divine Thunder.

A deafening roar was heard, and golden lightning illuminated the void, striking Chen Nianzhi from dozens of miles away.

Chen Nianzhi's eyes flickered slightly, and with her two sword fingers joined together, she also unleashed a divine lightning bolt that crashed down.

While both are Yang-Metal Divine Thunder, with Chen Nianzhi's current Law Power power, their power has more than doubled compared to before breaking through to the Purple Mansion.

Lightning streaked across the sky, colliding violently with the Divine Ability power of the Purple Mansion Demon Spirit, creating an astonishing upheaval.

"This attack..." The Old Clan Leader's pupils suddenly contracted. "Nianzhi's combat strength is probably no weaker than that of an ordinary Mid-Purple Mansion realm."

In the blink of an eye, Chen Nianzhi had already charged out on his sword, engaging in combat with two Geng-Metal Demon Spirit from a distance of more than ten miles.

Chen Changxuan quickly suppressed his astonishment, rallied the crowd, and charged out to besiege the Geng-Metal Demon Spirit at the Early Purple Mansion realm.

Faced with the Old Clan Leader's Purple Mansion combat power, as well as the siege of two Treasure Ship and ten Foundation Establishment cultivators, the Geng-Metal Demon Spirit was naturally powerless to attack Chen Nianzhi again.
