A strange turn in the bloodline

"The little guy is finally waking up!"

Chen Beiwu Spiritual Perception something and turned his gaze to the distant Firmament and clouds.

Attaining the Fifth-Realm Demon Venerable is no easy feat.

Zhiling's cultivation period is still short and her foundation is relatively shallow. Even with the blessing of the Pure Source Wonderful Dao Heaven and Earth Manifestation, it will still take a lot of time for her to take control of her own Bloodline.

"Today, the Heavenly Timing and Earthly Advantage are perfectly aligned, and the blessed fortuitous opportunity of Guyuan Blessed Land has bestowed an opportunity upon the world. Zhiling sensed the chance to attain the Fifth-Realm Demon Venerable Kongming Ancestor?

Upon thinking of this, Chen Beiwu couldn't help but glance at the child beside him, already having a guess in his mind.

Kongming Ancestor far surpasses that of ordinary cultivators; every move he makes is imbued with profound meaning, and he does not act rashly. "This is the Bitterheart Tea of Shanyi Peak, yielding only one ounce every thousand years. Please, fellow Daoist, sample it."

Kongming Ancestor raised his cup and took a sip of tea.

Seeing the ancestor condescend to such a high position, the elf Demon King attending him was startled. She lowered her eyes and didn't dare to look at Chen Beiwu. The reason was simple: in their hearts, the Kongming Ancestor was a renowned and invincible Union with the Dao expert who shook the entire world.

Even a powerful Spirit Transformation Venerable dominates an entire region must lower his proud head before the Kongming Ancestor.

But before this distinguished guest, the Kongming Ancestor displayed a gentle attitude they had never seen before, even one could say it was tinged with a hint of reverence. "Could it be that another Union with the Dao expert has been added to the world!"

The thought was terrifying; the leading Demon King Maiden shuddered and quickly suppressed the distracting thoughts in her Xin'er.

"This tea is truly exceptional!"

Without even needing to taste the tea, simply inhaling its aroma caused the Three Flowers and Five Essences within Chen Beiwu's body to naturally converge, creating a sense of unity between form and substance. If Chen Beiwu wasn't mistaken, this was at least a high-grade Fifth Tier Spirit Tea Upper Grade, perhaps even comparable to a top-grade Fifth-Tier Supreme Grade Medicine.

"Hey!" (The tea isn't poisonous!)

Xuele smacked his lips, suppressing his craving, and quickly made a decision.

Upon hearing this, Chen Beiwu casually picked up the Jade Cup and took a sip. He found it sweet at first, then slowly turned bitter. A stream of pure Spirit Vigor rose continuously from his Dantian and permeated his entire body.

"Excellent tea. One sip is equivalent to a month of arduous training," Chen Beiwu exclaimed.

"This tea can aid in spiritual practice, and it is especially effective in breaking through spiritual barriers."

Kongming Ancestor smiled and said, "A late-stage Nascent True Venerable Spirit Transformation Late-Stage only needs to drink three ounces of Bitterheart Tea to have a certain probability of Enlightenment of Heaven and Earth and reaching the Spirit Transformation Peak. This tea is rare. If you like it, fellow Daoist, I have two ounces of Bitterheart Tea from Shanyi Peak here."

Kongming Ancestor casually took out a tea canister and placed it on the Jade Table.

"No reward without merit, what do you mean by this, fellow Daoist?" Chen Beiwu raised an eyebrow and probed.

"Better to be the tail of a phoenix than the head of a chicken; this world is ultimately too narrow to glimpse the true Great Dao."

Kongming Ancestor sighed, his tone revealing a hint of melancholy: "Fellow Daoist, you come from a noble family. Would you be so kind as to introduce me to someone?" "Roar?" (Is this guy planning to surrender to the Immortal Alliance?)

Golden Egg Dragon Eyes slightly, understanding the unspoken meaning in Kongming Ancestor's words, and was overjoyed.

If they can conquer Emperor Sequence Middle Thousand World without lifting a finger, they will surely receive a great reward from the Sect.

Despite his joy, a hint of doubt inevitably arose in Golden Egg's heart.

Is it really that simple?

If this old fellow pretending to be young has ulterior motives and feigns allegiance to us, causing trouble within the Immortal Alliance, they will not only gain nothing but also incur blame, and may even be branded as having misjudged people and mistakenly trusting a Spirit Transformation native.

"Introduce what? What is the meaning of this, fellow Daoist?"

Chen Beiwu didn't respond, but just kept drinking tea, sharing some with Golden Egg, Iron Egg, and Xuele, then pretending not to understand.

"Good lad!"

Seeing Chen Beiwu's attitude, the Kongming Ancestor felt a sense of relief, instantly realizing that this young man was doing this on purpose to test his sincerity. "It's good that we can talk!"

After pondering for a moment, Kongming Ancestor did not speak further. Instead, he activated the Origin the Guyuan Blessed Land with a thought.

In an instant, outside the Gushan Pavilion, the Dragon Vein trembled, and a vast expanse of clouds and mist swept up.

Deep within the clouds, the earth cracked open, quietly revealing a primordial spring shrouded in mist.

The spring water is crystal clear, and a piece of dark soil floats in the center of the spring, emitting a strong allure.

"Roar!" "Woof!" "Hey!"

Golden Egg, Iron Egg, and Xuele all glanced sideways at the spring, their eyes filled with curiosity.

Unless it is Fifth Tier Upper Grade higher Yuan medicine with extremely compatible properties, they would not have their Bloodline tremble and a faint desire rise in their hearts, given their cultivation level.

"That's interesting."

Chen Beiwu also became interested, so he activated his Profound Ability and used his Divine Sense to see the detailed scene deep in the dark soil through the vast clouds.

"The Dragon Vein reveals the celestial rhythm, and the power of the extraordinary phenomenon nurtures the primordial fruit of heaven and earth, attracting countless Demon King to compete for it, stimulating their noble blood, and forming exclusive blood fruits." Chen Beiwu's eyes narrowed, and he saw that the wonder of this Guyuan Blessed Land was not naturally formed, but was forcibly created by a powerful expert with strong Law Power, just to form this special pattern, so as to select the best among the Fourth-Realm Demon King, which can be simply called "raising Gu".

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Just then, as the strange phenomena of heaven and earth changed, countless Spirit Vigor tides were triggered, forming a storm vortex visible to the naked eye, and excited roars of beasts rang out continuously.

"Crimson Flame Lion King!"

"Lightning-Fueled Purple Marten!"

"Ink-Eyed Terror Leopard!"

One after another, the Heavenly Gang Mysterious Beast cultivation had reached the Peak Demon King or even the Demon King Perfection Profound Ability, displayed their profound abilities, stepping on the Void and appearing on the outer edge of the Spiritual Qi vortex. Their eyes revealed a look of longing, but they dared not make any rash moves. Their gazes frequently probed the location of the Gushan Pavilion, as if they were waiting for something.

Chen Beiwu scanned the area with his divine sense and found that the Void Realm had a decent foundation. Among this group of fourth-realm demon kings, there were three extraordinary Heavenly Gang Mystic Beasts with bloodlines approaching those of fifth-order Yuan Beasts.

If he could capture and subdue these Demon King and sell them to the Immortal Alliance, he would surely make a fortune and might even be able to exchange them for exclusive resources from some True Venerable Clan.

"Guyuan Blessed Land has been nurtured for fifty thousand years. Every thousand years, the Demon King who resides here will follow the strange phenomena of heaven and earth, and fight fiercely to the death, just to obtain the opportunity to be reborn as a demon and prove the Dao of the Demon Venerable."

The Kongming Ancestor said with great emotion, "Heaven and earth are ruthless, all things compete to live, those who follow the way survive, and those who go against the way perish."

Although we are sitting in the Gushan Pavilion today, admiring this scenery, we ourselves are also part of the scenery.

We are at their mercy, like fish on a chopping board.

As the strongest in the Kongming Realm, he could freely make moves and orchestrate events, watching Demon King and ants vie for the opportunity to become Demon Venerable, enjoying himself while nurturing future generations. Those powerful beings from Beyond the Domain could also use a realm as a chessboard, turning their hands to create clouds and rain, using it to hone their Heavenly Prodigy generations.

"Break free from constraints, and you will find nature."

Chen Beiwu said casually, "Fellow Daoist Kongming is right. Although this Emperor Sequence Middle Thousand World is not bad, it is indeed as insignificant as a drop in the ocean compared to the Great Thousand World."

At this point, Chen Beiwu paused slightly, deliberately revealing some information. "For Half-Step Void Refinement cultivator like you, if you wish to attain the Primordial Unity, you must travel to the Great Thousand World."

Sensing Chen Beiwu's attitude, the Kongming Ancestor felt even more confident.

It's good that we can talk!

As long as the Immortal Alliance Leadership do not obstruct his path to enlightenment, he can also become a cultivator of the Immortal Alliance Immortal Alliance contribute to its glory.

Rumble!

As the strange phenomena of heaven and earth continued, the Fourth-Realm Demon King on the outer edge of the Spirit Vigor vortex gradually lost control of their desires and began to fight each other, using their Innate Talent Profound Ability to eliminate their rivals.

Among these Fourth-Realm Demon King, the Crimson Flame Lion King, the Lightning-Fueled Purple Marten, and the Ink-Eyed Terror Leopard Demon King undoubtedly the three most powerful and strongest in terms of Dao Practice and combat strength. They can take the lives of Demon King of the same realm with just a little effort.

Soon, an hour passed. The Demon King was bleeding profusely, Corpse littered the ground, and blood rained down from the sky.

The Immortal Blood was frantically spilled stained the spiritual spring red, soaked the black soil, and all turned into nutrients to nourish the primordial medicine.

"Huh? (What kind of elixir is this?)"

Xuele had cultivated countless rare heavenly materials and earthly treasures, but he had never seen such a malevolent elixir.

"I don't know either."

Chen Beiwu quickly searched his memory for information about the Immortal Alliance, but couldn't find any specific details about the Black Soil Yuan Medicine.

"This herb has a slender shape and Upper Grade a high-grade Fifth Tier Tier. It generally only grows in places where Dragon Vein converge, and feeds on the essence of Demon Beast Bloodline. Therefore, it is called [Dragon-Nurturing Fruit] by cultivators in the Kongming Realm."

Kongming Ancestor explained softly, "If Fourth-Realm Demon King consumes this fruit, his Bloodline will undergo a transformation, allowing him to fully Creation of the Guyuan Blessed Land and Senior Year his probability of attaining the Fifth-Realm Demon Venerable status by forty percent."

"I see. Most of these Demon King have mediocre Bloodline, with only a few Heavenly Gang Variant Species Demon King having somewhat decent Bloodline. They're quite uninteresting. I have a Fourth-Realm Demon King under my command who is about to break through. I wonder if he can participate in this competition for the strange phenomenon?"

Chen Beiwu appeared to be asking a question, but the Heaven and Earth Manifestation slowly unfolded behind him, reflecting an endless world.

Deep within the world, a purple light, like a rainbow, flickers and dims, beating like a heart, radiating an aura of ineffable nobility.

"If you are interested, please feel free to do as you please."

Kongming Ancestor's eyes flickered slightly, and he readily agreed, already guessing where the glimmer of hope he had obtained through divination came from.

Rumble!

The moment Zhiling's aura appeared, the Fourth-Realm Demon King fighting fiercely within the area enveloped by the strange phenomenon simultaneously stopped, lowered their eyes, and looked on with fear in their eyes. "This can be considered Fourth-Realm Demon King?" A trace of fear flashed in the eyes of the Crimson Flame Lion King.

It's difficult to describe the terrifying Might in words.

At this moment, it felt its blood rushing backward, and its bones and fascia cracking and popping, as if it might fall at any moment. "Which Fifth-Realm Demon Venerable dares to disregard the rules and recklessly seize the fortuitous opportunity within the Guyuan Blessed Land? Doesn't he fear the wrath of the Master of the Gushan Pavilion?!" The Lightning-Fueled Purple Marten Sable was both shocked and furious.

It now has two desires: to speak up and loudly rebuke, using the power of the master of the Gushan Pavilion to scare away the visitors and prevent its own fortuitous opportunity from being taken away; but it also fears that such actions will provoke trouble and lead to the Demon Venerable establishing his authority and killing it.

Of the three Demon King, only the Ink-Eyed Terror Leopard with Sha Qi, reacted with the purest of instincts.

It let out a low growl, lowered its tail, its head almost touching its forelegs, and its body trembled, appearing to have given up resisting, completely lacking the aura of Demon King. "Eek!"

Zhiling opened her eyes and let out a long howl as she looked up at the sky.

This long howl, seemingly coquettish, contained an inexplicable power that could draw upon the power of the Void, causing all the Heaven and Earth Spirit Vigor within a radius of ten thousand miles to dissipate. Even the strange cloud formations gathered in the Guyuan Blessed Land showed signs of dissipation.

"Huh? (Is it done?)"

Seeing countless Dao Blood fireworks explode in the Firmament, the Golden Egg Dragon Eyes narrowed.

With just a single cry, she could slay numerous Perfection Demon King. Even though Zhiling's cultivation level hadn't reached the Demon Venerable, her Profound Ability combat power surpassed that of the Fifth Realm expert. "Gurgle!"

"Gurgle!"

"Gurgle!"

Seeing that all the Demon King present had died and perished, their essence transformed into resources for the Blessed Land's phenomena, the three Demon King —the Crimson Flame Lion King, the Lightning-Fueled Purple Marten, and the Ink-Eyed Terror Leopard— swallowed hard, their hind legs tightly tucked between their tails, no longer daring to fight.

"No wonder the Ancestor forbade us to participate this time!"

The Demon King and spirits attending to the Kongming Ancestor took a deep breath, their gazes towards Zhiling filled with profound shock.

This beast is neither beast nor demon; it is like a god!

If they were to participate in this competition for the wondrous scenery of Guyuan Blessed Land, they would most likely end up with no trace of their remains.

"Tread!"

"Tread!"

"Tread!"

Zhiling took light steps and slowly stepped onto the black soil.

It wasn't particularly murderous to begin with, but it had been dormant in the depths of the Heaven and Earth Manifestation for too long, harboring a pent-up resentment that it couldn't let out.

Now that the Dragon-Nurturing Fruit has all the necessary resources, it naturally won't commit any more killings and will not attack the remaining three ants.

"Splash!"

As time passed, the essence of many Demon King and the black soil converged to form a dark golden soil, drawing upon the power of the Dragon Vein. The Dragon-Infused Grass, which was located at the core of the Blessed Land, sprouted rapidly, grew tender leaves, and produced a bright flower stamen the size of a fist.

Upon seeing this, the Kongming Ancestor waved his sleeve, and a dazzling blood-red light instantly swept across the Void and landed inside the flower's stamen, causing the stamen's diameter to rapidly expand to about ten feet in size, before forming a crystal-clear, tender dragon fruit that emitted an enticing fragrance.

"Eek?" (Can I eat this?)

Faced with the temptation, Zhiling turned her head away and looked at Chen Beiwu.

"Hey!" (It's not poisonous, you can eat it!)

Xuele sniffed lightly and couldn't help but swallow.

If Zhiling hadn't yet advanced to the Fifth-Realm Demon Venerable and needed this rare fruit to lay a solid foundation, it probably wouldn't have been able to suppress the urge stirring within it. "Eat."

As soon as Chen Beiwu finished speaking, Zhiling opened her mouth and took a bite, only to find that the Dragon-Nurturing Fruit melted in her mouth and had little flavor.

The next instant, Zhiling's expression changed slightly, and the power of her Bloodline exploded, revealing a majestic figure.

Its eyes are purple-gold, its snout is pointed and slightly upturned, and it has dragon horns on its head. The dragon horns are thorns and are arranged in three pairs, which gives it a certain True Dragon presence.

Her elegant body below the neck was like that of an ethereal fox, with eight fox tails swaying slowly behind her, obscuring the sky.

At that moment, both Iron Egg and Xuele subconsciously looked at Golden Egg with surprise in their eyes.

It's not surprising that Zhiling needed to pass the first tribulation, "Bloodline Ancestor Return," to become Demon Venerable Lord.

What truly puzzled them was that the Ancestor Return manifestation reflected in Zhiling was somewhat similar to the [Three-Aspects Void Fox] that Beiwu had activated when he activated the Primordial Origin True Beast Profound Ability, causing the Golden Egg and Zhiling to merge.

"Eek?"

Zhiling's eyes widened in disbelief.

Although the Three-Aspects Void Fox is powerful, it doesn't fit its aesthetic.

This time, its Bloodline transformation aims to make it a top-ranked Eight-Tailed Void Fox on the Immortal Alliance's Creation Origin Beast Rankings, capable of dominating the world, not some Three-Aspects Void Fox!
