The Yan Household Head Pledges His Loyalty; Servant Cultivator Lineage Disciples Attempt Foundation Establishment
At the highest peak of Peacock County Seat.
The peak houses that were destroyed in the attack of the Third Tier Flame Sparrow have now been rebuilt, and are taller and more spacious than before, with more than a dozen houses distributed among them.
"Greetings, Your Excellency!"
The Yan Lineage patriarch Yan Zhiyu, the Ma Lineage patriarch Ma Zhenyu, and the Yun Household patriarch Yun Qishen each led several cultivators to the highest peak and paid their respects to Kong Wenxuan.
Kong Wenxuan smiled and waved his hand dismissively, saying, "We're all family, no need for such formalities."
"Thank you, sir."
The three cultivators rose to their feet.
Kong Wenxuan saw that each of the three families, besides their clan leaders, had brought two people, all of whom were cultivators at the Qi Refining Ninth Layer. Clearly, these three servant-cultivation Lineage were going all out to break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage.
He nodded and looked at the group, saying, "The clan leader has already told me about your requests. Your three families performed very well in this expansion war, so I am willing to do my best to help you break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage."
"Now, have you decided who will receive the ' Peacock True Spirit Star ' projection imprint from our Kong Household?"
The three clan leaders of the servant cultivation Lineage, Yan, Ma, and Yun, exchanged glances, then bowed in unison to Kong Wenxuan, saying, "We are all willing to accept the ' Peacock True Spirit Star ' projection imprint; we humbly request that Your Excellency grant it to us."
"Oh?" Kong Wenxuan was slightly surprised upon hearing this. He could understand why the patriarchs of the Ma Household and Yun Household were willing to accept the projection imprint of the "Peacock True Spirit Star".
After all, they were both only Qi Refining Ninth Layer cultivators, and they also wanted to break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage. With the suppression and assistance of the "Peacock True Spirit Star" projection imprint, they would have a better chance of success.
But Yan Zhiyu, the patriarch of the Yan Lineage, was already a Foundation Establishment cultivator. How could he possibly accept the projection imprint of the "Peacock True Spirit Star"?
Weren't they all wary of this "True Spirit Star" projection mark because of the Du Household's misfortune, and unwilling to accept it?
His gaze involuntarily turned to Yan Zhiyu.
The other party seemed to understand his doubts and immediately said, "My Yan Household is also a servant Lineage of the Kong Household family. Although I am the head of the Yan Lineage, I should set an example and accept the ' Peacock True Spirit Star ' projection imprint."
Upon hearing the other party's words, Kong Wenxuan immediately understood that the other party was expressing their loyalty to his family.
Perhaps because the patriarchs of the Ma Household and Yun Household Lineage had both decided to accept the imprint of the "Peacock True Spirit Star" projection in order to break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage, Yan Zhiyu also had no choice but to accept the imprint of this "True Spirit Star" projection.
After all, regardless of why the heads of the Ma Household and Yun Household chose to accept the star projection imprint, the fact that they accepted it while the head of the Yan Lineage did not create a stark contrast.
There may be no impact in the short term, but in the long run, it's hard to guarantee that the Kong Household won't develop a different attitude towards the three families.
Therefore, Yan Zhiyu also chose to accept the imprint of the "Peacock True Spirit Star" projection to show his loyalty and actively move closer to the Kong Household.
Kong Wenxuan shook his head. He didn't dwell on the matter. Yan Zhiyu decided to take the initiative to align himself with him and show his loyalty, he naturally wouldn't stop him; he would only welcome it.
So he nodded and said, "Alright, in that case, I will guide the projection of the ' Peacock True Spirit Star ' down. You should prepare to receive it."
"Yes, thank you, Your Excellency!"
The three servant Lineage and nine cultivators bowed in unison, displaying an attitude of submission and welcome.
At that moment, Kong Wenxuan formed a hand seal, and a beam of starlight shot out from between his eyebrows, directly towards the "Peacock True Spirit Star" projected and manifested in the sky.
Lili!
Above the "True Spirit Star," the Five-Colored Peacock True Spirit raises its head and sings a clear song, spreading its wings and displaying a large amount of dreamlike Five-Colored Starlight.
These starlight rays fell to the highest peak, splitting into nine parts, condensing and transforming into nine illusory and real "Peacock True Spirit Star" projections, which directly entered the bodies of Yan Zhiyu, Ma Zhenyu, Yun Qishen, and the other three people.
The nine people trembled slightly, and Five-Colored Starlight emanated from each of them, which was then absorbed into their bodies after a moment.
Subsequently, the group clearly felt that their perception of the surrounding world and Spiritual Qi had become much clearer, as if they were in "oneness with Celestial Person." Without having to circulate their Cultivation Method, the Spiritual Qi around them, which was imbued with the starlight of the "Peacock True Spirit Star," actively gravitated towards them.
Lili!
At the same time, they seemed to hear the clear cry of Peacock, and their minds were instantly cleared and made much more lucid.
"Quickly, seize the opportunity to break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage!"
At this moment, Yan Zhiyu, the head of the Yan Lineage, was the first to come to her senses. She immediately turned to the man and Yan Household following behind her and gave them instructions.
"Yes, Chieftain!"
The two Yan Household members immediately bowed in response and took out various pills, incense, array plates, and other items that they had prepared in advance.
"Please forgive me, Your Excellency." At this moment, Yan Zhiyu bowed to Kong Wenxuan again and pleaded, "I humbly request Your Excellency to grant us a secluded place for cultivation so that my Yan Household disciples may attempt to break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage."
"It's alright." Kong Wenxuan smiled and waved his hand, pointing to the dozen or so houses behind him, saying, "These houses are all usable; you can choose whichever you like."
"Thank you very much, Your Excellency!"
Yan Zhiyu immediately thanked him with a beaming smile, then led the two Lineage members to the houses, choosing the two rooms on the far side for them to enter and cultivate, attempting to break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage.
This highest peak is usually where Kong Wenxuan cultivates in seclusion. Although his cultivation relies more on refining the "Five Elements Divine Swords" to devour and refine the five elements spiritual materials to promote the growth and advancement of his Law Power and Spiritual Consciousness, there are naturally basic requirements for the surrounding Spiritual Qi environment.
Therefore, the Spiritual Qi environment at the top of this highest peak is definitely not weak, reaching the level of Second Tier Spirit Vein, making it a better place than the secluded cultivation sites of clans such as the Yan Household and the Ma Household.
Since they chose to attempt their Foundation Establishment Stage here, they naturally didn't need to worry about the external Spiritual Qi environment.
At this moment, the members of the Ma Household and Yun Household also realized what was happening and, led by their patriarchs, paid their respects to Kong Wenxuan, requesting permission to attempt to break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage at the summit.
Kong Wenxuan naturally couldn't show favoritism, so he nodded in agreement and let them find their own rooms to pursue their breakthroughs in seclusion.
At that moment, the six members of the Ma Household and Yun Household all bowed deeply in gratitude, and then each chose a room to enter and begin their closed-door cultivation to break through to the next level.
In the blink of an eye, only Kong Wenxuan and Yan Zhiyu, the patriarch of the Yan Lineage, remained on the Foundation Establishment.
Kong Wenxuan looked at the other party and asked, "Clan Chief Yan, would you like to come in and sit down? They're attempting to break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage; it'll probably be a while before they do."
Yan Zhiyu immediately bowed and said, "I wouldn't dare disturb your rest, sir. I will stay here and guard the clansmen, protecting them."
Kong Wenxuan nodded upon seeing this, and without saying anything more, he turned around and returned to the main house. He took out a piece of Second Tier "Shoushan Stone" spiritual material, summoned the "Yellow Earth Divine Sword," and began to refine and upgrade the "Yellow Earth Divine Sword."
