The Power of Bloodlines, Setting the Course!
Upon hearing this—
Qin Xiao chuckled and said directly, "Second brother, stop being so cheeky!"
"How?"
"After two hundred years of arduous cultivation, I have finally become a Golden Core Master, and from then on, I will live for hundreds of years. I have devoted myself to the Lineage, and shouldn't I be able to live a carefree life?"
I came here to chat, and you're already complaining about me!
As he spoke--
Qin Xiao's tone immediately changed, and he added, "But then again..."
"Only ten years have passed, and the Fourth Heaven has already become so perfect, but it's still far from reaching the Spirit Ascension stage..."
"If left to evolve naturally, it would probably take tens of thousands of years to complete the transformation. According to Father's wishes..."
"We need to become stronger as soon as possible to hunt down all the Nascent Soul in the Frost Cloud Realm!"
"In this way, the structure of the Fourth Heaven can be completed in the shortest possible time. Additionally, we should keep an eye out for some High Antiquity secret realms..."
"Some ancient secret realms may have already completed their Spirit Ascension and can be directly absorbed into the Fourth Heaven, thereby perfecting the Great Dao of the World."
Just as Qin Xiao finished speaking--
Then, in the distance, another member of the clan broke through to the Dao Foundation Realm, attracting a large gathering of spiritual clouds, which immediately caused a torrential downpour...
The Spirit Rain falls, nourishing the world!
Furthermore, the Earth Dao's vital energy surged and churned, nourishing heaven and earth, continuously accumulating the power of the Dao Law...
This scene plays out almost every year, and when Breaking Condensing Qi, a shower of Spirit Rain falls...
It happens every single day!
The Qin Clan is growing at a visible rate, and a very small number of the Qin Clan disciples have even experienced physical mutations...
For example, their features become more upright, and their pupils turn emerald green...
Strange patterns appeared on his body!
These are all influences from the Wood Demon bloodline. Such clansmen are not only talented, but are often natural-born Spirit Plant and Alchemist...
Their understanding of the Wood Dao often surpasses that of ordinary people in the clan.
This is also a major area of research for the Qin Clan in the future: [Bloodline Power], which has always been a unique ability of the Demon Race...
Ultimately, it is a means for strong individuals to pass on their genetic inheritance to the next generation.
A small number of the Qin Clan members inherited similar bloodline powers, often manifesting as affinity for Wood Dao, Poison Dao, and Soul Dao...
They have a natural advantage in cultivating these three paths!
However, currently only Qin Zheng inherited the Wood Demon bloodline of Qin Lu and Haiyue; the other Qin Clan members who inherited the Wood Demon bloodline...
Some of them were transformed by absorbing the essence of Wood Demon...
Some were Qin Hui's offspring, born naturally.
Overall --
This Wood Demon bloodline has not yet fully merged with the Qin Clan. Perhaps hundreds or thousands of years later, this bloodline will fully integrate...
Only then can they enter a deeper level of intercourse!
"Another member of our clan has broken through to the Dao Foundation. He seems to be from the Ying generation, and it appears he has awakened a portion of the Wood Demon bloodline..."
"It must have absorbed the essence of the XuETeng and transformed from it."
"Good!"
"His aura is far stronger than that of a normal Dao Foundation cultivator; he's a rare and promising talent. Putting aside everything else, just considering the current Dao Foundation cultivator in the clan..."
"There are probably at least fifty or sixty people, if not a hundred!"
"Among them, there are at least a dozen promising talents capable of reaching the Golden Core. I wonder what kind of fortune our Lineage will enjoy a thousand years from now?!"
"Since the founding of the Great Qin Dynasty, only a hundred years have passed. In these hundred years, the Lineage's development has been far too rapid..."
"I don't know many of the fifth, sixth, or even seventh generation descendants."
"Second brother, times have really changed. Our generation is now being called 'old folks' by the world..."
Qin Xiao said self-deprecatingly, his eyes brimming with undisguised pride!
Who could have imagined that just over two hundred years ago, the Qin Clan was merely a small, unremarkable clan in the mountains, and in just over two hundred years...
He became the undisputed ruler of this world!
By now, Qin Xiao has unknowingly turned around two hundred years old...
This age is typical for Golden Core Formation cultivators, but look at the Qin Clan disciples these days; most of them can establish their Dao Foundation before the age of one hundred...
Even those with exceptional talent, with the support of the Qin Clan's resources, could produce a Dao Foundation Realm cultivator in less than fifty years...
Any one of them, picked out at random, could easily outshine the younger generation of the Northern Continent!
This is the foundation of the Qin Clan today!
Qin Hui, with a composed expression, couldn't help but sigh as she recalled the past:
Yes, times have changed.
"Now, every member of the Lineage is like a dragon, a sage king. I just don't know if we'll be able to witness the day the Lineage rises to prominence..."
"Currently, there are quite a few Golden Core cultivators in the clan, but until now..."
"Not a single one of us has broken through to the Golden Core Middle Stage yet. Ultimately, our aptitude is still too poor; we can't even dream of reaching the Nascent Soul..."
"I'm afraid that without three or four hundred years of arduous cultivation, one won't even be able to touch the threshold of the Nascent Soul."
"Currently, within the clan, only the sixth and seventh brothers have the opportunity to touch the Nascent Soul. As for you, eldest brother, and the fourth brother, it's hard to say..."
"The fifth and third brothers, and I, have a chance to touch the Nascent Soul, but whether we can break through is still unknown; we just need time..."
"The only ones most likely to achieve a breakthrough in the short term are probably the two Ghost Kings, Lin Xuan, Ghost Fire, and Soul Frost. The clan's resources could be appropriately allocated towards these three..."
Qin Hui said this, and then asked:
"Big brother, how's the preparation for Seventh Brother's Core Formation going?"
"Father has instructed that Seventh Brother must comprehend the third Dao Law before he can form his Core Formation. This is related to Father's future plans..."
Upon hearing this—
Qin Xiao was well aware of this. To be honest, none of his brothers didn't envy Qin Zheng. In fact, as early as ten years ago...
Qin Zheng was ready to Core Formation, but he hadn't been able to comprehend the three Dao Law, thus remaining stuck at the Dao Foundation Realm for ten years...
"Father has high expectations. Seventh Brother has only comprehended the Mystic Water Dao Principles and the Aqua Regia Dao Principles so far. The third Dao Law should be mastered soon..."
"It will most likely happen within the next two years."
