Starting From The Blood Lineage Genealogy To Build An Eternal Immortal Clan Chapter 365: The Yan Family's Providence and Departure

"He is still only at the Foundation Establishnt stage?" Xu Deling felt a sudden wave of astonishnt.

"Your grandfather has divined his future. With his disposition, talent, and perseverance, he is expected to achieve Divine Ability Core Formation within ten years."

Xu Chuan explained, "Our Xu Family is sowhat of a special case. Therefore, he can be considered the first person in Heavenly Azure Prefecture to successfully achieve Divine Ability Core Formation in the last five hundred years.

"After this, the Yan Family's providence will soar, and talents will erge in great numbers.

"If our Xu Family were not in the picture.

"Perhaps a few hundred years from now, the ones ruling the entire Heavenly Azure Prefecture would be the Yan Family."

"This..." Xu Deling did not doubt Xu Chuan's words, but she simply found it sowhat inconceivable.

"Who could have imagined that a person who couldn't even make it onto the Prodigy Roll, from a family whose ancestor has less than a hundred years of lifespan left, an aristocratic family considered at the absolute bottom of the entire Heavenly Azure Prefecture...

"Would actually possess such an extraordinary destiny."

"Then doesn't the arrival of our Xu Family completely disrupt everything?"

"More or less. However, those destined to prosper will still prosper. In the future, Yan Kuangtu still has a slight chance of achieving Nascent Soul Formation."

Xu Deling pondered for a mont before her eyes suddenly lit up. "Grandfather, are you intentionally balancing the four major factions?

"Has this been your plan ever since they moved into Cloudstream City?"

"It was rely a coincidence."

"Hehe, Grandfather, look into your granddaughter's eyes. Do you think I believe that?"

"You cheeky girl!" Xu Chuan scolded with a chuckle. "Go busy yourself with your own affairs. What your grandfather said before was rely a suggestion. As for whether you take a disciple or not, I will not force you.

"But if you do decide to take one, prioritize their disposition and moral character.

"Things like innate talent are secondary."

"Hehe, your granddaughter understands," Xu Deling blinked and smiled. "By the way, I've been studying the Dragon-Elephant Origin Cauldron recently, and I feel that heavy Dharma Treasures seem exceptionally compatible with the Martial Dao.

"The Martial Dao is more akin to being a Body Cultivator. It's just that they don't cultivate mana, but rather Yuan Power, which is a fusion of Qi and Blood and True Qi.

"There is a great deal of overlap between the two in terms of physical strength and the flesh.

"It's just that the Martial Dao is much more widespread.

"Of course, that is only at the foundational level. To reach profound heights, one still needs the support of innate talent, comprehension, and perseverance, especially since the modern Martial Dao is still in the exploratory phase."

Xu Chuan offered a faint smile. "If you want to improve Origin Tools, then go ahead and do it.

"As I have said before, do not let so-called inheritances blind you.

"As the saying goes, the will of heaven is not to be feared, and the ways of the ancestors are not absolute.

"Inheritances were all created by people. If others can do it, you too can create your own lineage of the Dao of Artifacts!

"Naturally, you should still learn from what ca before.

"Creating a new path requires the support of profound heritage and extensive knowledge."

"Your granddaughter will carefully rember your teachings, Grandfather!" Xu Deling cupped her hands respectfully. "Then I will take my leave now."

Xu Chuan nodded slightly, then slowly closed his eyes.

Xu Deling returned to the Heavenly Plu Sect to handle her affairs.

Three days later.

Rong Tianyang and True Lord Yanzhen preparing to lead the Heavenly Foundry Sect disciples back to the Heavenly Foundry Sect caused a massive shockwave throughout the Heavenly Plu Sect.

Xu Deling publicly declared that the Heavenly Plu Sect would not disband.

They were originally sent by the Heavenly Foundry Sect to help establish the Heavenly Plu Sect, and now it was ti for them to step down after a successful endeavor.

With these Heavenly Foundry Sect disciples leaving, so of the Heavenly Plu Sect disciples actually began to feel a sense of reluctance to part.

Even if they had experienced conflicts and argunts in the past, they now wore expressions of sorrowful farewell.

Another five days passed.

A Magic Skiff soared into the sky as hundreds of Heavenly Foundry Sect disciples boarded the vessel.

Xu Deling spoke to True Lord Fierce Sun, "Senior Brother Fierce Sun, thank you for the sect's assistance all these years. My Xu Family will rember this favor.

"If the opportunity arises, we will definitely repay it."

"We didn't actually help all that much. The fact that your Xu Family has made it this far is entirely due to your own efforts," True Lord Fierce Sun replied with a faint smile, stroking his beard.

"Be careful on the journey back. Give my regards to Honored Master when you return to the sect."

True Lord Fierce Sun nodded slightly and continued, "From now on, the Heavenly Plu Sect will be left for you to manage alone. Have you thought about how you will proceed?"

Xu Deling flashed a radiant smile. "Naturally."

Seeing this, True Lord Fierce Sun soared into the air and landed at the bow of the Magic Skiff. He flicked his sleeve robe behind him, clasped his hands behind his back, and announced in a resonant voice, "Set off! We return to the sect!"

"Return to the sect!"

To them, the Heavenly Foundry Sect in the southern part of Heavenly South was their true ho.

Returning this ti naturally filled their hearts with excitent.

Countless people watched the Heavenly Foundry Sect disciples depart on the Magic Skiff, sparking widespread discussion within Cloudstream City.

This was considered a major event.

That very day, the alliance disciples stationed in Cloudstream City relayed the news to the alliance headquarters.

Within a day or two, more than half the factions in the entire Azure Dragon Prefecture learned of the matter.

Three days later.

Xu Deling personally visited the Yan Family.

Yan Yue hosted her with evident excitent. "Fairy Phoenix Plu's visit is making our humble ho shine. May I ask what brings you here?"

His eyes remained fixed on Xu Deling the entire ti, terrified of missing even a single breath of her presence.

"Is your family's ancestor present?"

"The Ancestor is in seclusion cultivating. Shall I go and notify him to co out?"

Xu Deling raised a hand. "There is no need for that. I ca this ti simply to invite Daoist Friend Yan to join the Heavenly Plu Sect and beco an elder of our sect."

"Invite the Ancestor to beco an elder?"

"Exactly. Daoist Friend Yan Yue, you just need to notify your ancestor once he erges from seclusion. If he is willing, he can co to the Heavenly Plu Sect to discuss the details.

"If he is unwilling, then there is no need for a reply."

"I understand. Even if the Ancestor does not agree, I can still join the Heavenly Plu Sect."

Xu Deling could not help but shudder slightly, casting a strange look at Yan Yue. 'Could it be that he still hasn't given up?

'Or does he think he actually has a chance now that he has reached the Golden Core stage?'

Unfortunately, Xu Deling truly felt absolutely nothing for him.

In the end, Yan Yue's infatuation was destined to be misplaced.

Xu Deling did not stay long, quickly bidding her farewell and leaving.

Several days later.

The Ancestor of the Yan Family erged from seclusion.

Yan Yue imdiately relayed the matter to him.

"Invite to beco an elder of the Heavenly Plu Sect?" Hearing this, the Ancestor of the Yan Family's eyes lit up. He adopted a thoughtful expression, as if weighing the pros and cons.

"Ancestor, your grandson feels this is feasible. If you do not agree, then your grandson will join the Heavenly Plu Sect instead."

The Ancestor of the Yan Family glanced at him, seemingly seeing right through his thoughts. He chuckled and asked, "Do you want to join because of the Heavenly Plu Sect, or because of their sect master?"

"Have you still not given up even now? Although you successfully achieved Core Formation, the gap between you and Fairy Phoenix Plu hasn't shrunk in the slightest.

"In front of her, it would still only take a single move to defeat you."

"Ancestor, your words are far too crushing."

"Never mind you, even I am not much better off," the Ancestor of the Yan Family sighed with emotion. "When she was a newly advanced Golden Core cultivator, her strength was already greater than mine.

"And now, rumors say she is not the least bit inferior to a Golden Core Perfection Divine Ability True Lord."

Seeing that Yan Yue remained completely unfazed, he couldn't be bothered to say more and returned to the previous topic. "Regarding the matter of serving as an elder for the Heavenly Plu Sect, I intend to accept.

"Do you know why?"

Yan Yue thought for a mont before replying, "With the people from the Heavenly Foundry Sect gone, the Heavenly Plu Sect can fully fall under the Xu Family's command, making it equivalent to a subordinate sect of the Xu Family.

"By becoming its elder, you naturally establish a certain relationship with the Xu Family.

"The Xu Family is extrely strict when recruiting guest elders. Among our four major aristocratic families in Cloudstream City, only the Ancestor of the Chen Family holds that position. Even the Ancestor of the Tang Family only beca a Deputy City Lord."

"At least your brain isn't completely muddled."

"Ancestor, your grandson is not a fool. I know that I am unworthy of Fairy Phoenix Plu, but matters of the heart are not sothing human willpower can control.

"Your grandson has already figured it out.

"My liking Fairy Phoenix Plu is one thing, and having her like in return is another entirely.

"The two do not conflict."

"You... ah, you." The Ancestor of the Yan Family was rendered nearly speechless. "How did my Yan Family produce such a hopeless romantic like you?

"It seems it is simply because you have experienced too little of won.

"Over the next few years, I will choose a suitable Dao companion for you.

"Once you experience the taste of that a few more tis, you will gradually let this go."

"Ancestor..."

"This matter is not up for discussion!"

The next day.

The Ancestor of the Yan Family headed to the Heavenly Plu Sect for a visit.

A Foundation Establishnt disciple guided him to the Sect Master's grand hall.

"Daoist Friend Yan, please take a seat."

Xu Deling looked at the Ancestor of the Yan Family and offered a faint smile. "Since Daoist Friend Yan has co, I presu you have agreed to beco a Golden Core elder of my Heavenly Plu Sect.

"If you have any conditions, feel free to raise them.

"Whatever can be satisfied, this Sect Master will do her utmost to accommodate."

The Ancestor of the Yan Family stroked his beard and smiled. "Fairy Phoenix Plu is too polite. Being able to join the Heavenly Plu Sect is this old man's good fortune. How could I dare bring up any conditions?

"Everything can simply follow the standard allocation for a sect elder."

"Excellent. This is the elder token of my Heavenly Plu Sect. Please accept it, Elder Yan. From now on, you may freely pass through the Heavenly Plu Sect's grand array, as well as the arrays of the inner and outer city.

"However, this access is restricted to you personally."

"I understand," the Ancestor of the Yan Family said, cupping his hands.

"As for your responsibilities as an elder, you will need to teach a course on the Dao of Artifacts once a month. If you need to enter long-term seclusion, this can be postponed. When there are tasks to refine Magic Treasures, we will also need you to take action, Elder Yan.

"You need not worry about the materials; the sect will naturally prepare them.

"Regarding the remuneration for refining Magic Treasures, you will receive ten percent of the yield for each piece.

"Although it is a bit low, this factors in the failure rate.

"If the refinent fails, the sect will bear the loss.

"However, if you fail three tis in a row, the task will be reassigned to soone else."

The Ancestor of the Yan Family pondered slightly before replying, "Fair and reasonable. This old man has no objections."

Xu Deling nodded and continued, "The monthly Spirit Stone stipend is one thousand Spirit Stones per month.

"Additionally, every ti you teach a class or refine a Magic Treasure, you will earn sect contribution points. These can be exchanged for various materials, Spirit Grass, or Pills within the sect."

After finishing her explanation.

Xu Deling sent out a ssage, summoning the sect disciples to gather in the plaza.

In front of all the disciples, she announced the addition of the Ancestor of the Yan Family.

"From this day forth, Elder Yan Wujin has officially joined our Heavenly Plu Sect, becoming an elder of this sect!"

"We disciples pay our respects to Elder Yan."

Over a hundred disciples cupped their hands and shouted in unison.

He was an illustriously famous Mid-Grade Three-Tier Blacksmith in the Azure Dragon Prefecture.

Unfortunately, his reputation had previously been overshadowed by True Lord Yanzhen and the others. But now that they were gone, his inherent value naturally rose once more.

His inclusion would also serve to stabilize morale to a certain extent.

Aside from him.

Elder Chihuo of the Azure Dragon Alliance had also elevated his artifact refinent mastery to the Mid-Grade Three-Tier level.

There was also Perfected Person Fire Cloud.

However, he kept a low profile, so not many people knew that his skills in the Dao of Artifacts had improved.

Perfected Person Green Cliff occasionally received pointers from Xu Mingxian, and coupled with the fact that he was already exceedingly close to the Mid-Grade Three-Tier mark, he had successfully beco a Mid-Grade Three-Tier Array Master not too long ago.

Aside from lacking a Talisman Maker above the third tier to hold down the fort in the Talisman Dao.

The Xu Family's heritage in the Immortal Arts was not the slightest bit inferior to that of the Azure Dragon Alliance.

When the Tang Family, the Yan Family, and the Chen Family heard the news about the Ancestor of the Yan Family, they were not surprised.

Residing in Cloudstream City, it was only natural to maintain good relations with the masters of this place.

This was the only true strategy for long-term peace and stability.

Northern District.

Yan Residence.

Yan Nantian's cultivation quiet room.

"Ancestor, now the Yan Family has also indirectly established ties with the Xu Family. Only our Yan Family is left," Yan Shoucheng, the Family Head of the Yan Family, said with a worried expression. "At present, what should our Yan Family do?

"Please give us your instructions, Ancestor!"

The Ancestor of the Yan Family looked at Yan Shoucheng. "Calm yourself. I have not fallen yet, so the Yan Family is not about to collapse right now.

"Our Yan Family firstly lacks any deep friendship with True Lord Withered Glory; secondly, we have no genius disciples who have joined the Xu Family's tutelage; and thirdly, we certainly have no outstanding individuals skilled in the Immortal Arts.

"Regarding the Xu Family's Four Halls of Pills, Artifacts, Formations, and Talismans, if our Yan Family possessed a third-tier Talisman Maker...

"I imagine the Xu Family would invite them to beco a guest elder."

Yan Shoucheng remained silent.

Among the four major aristocratic families, his Yan Family truly possessed the most stagnant developnt montum right now.

"Then how do we break out of this predicant?"

"We wait!" the Ancestor of the Yan Family replied indifferently.

"Wait?" Yan Shoucheng asked, bewildered. "Ancestor, do you an we wait for Elder Kuangtu to achieve Core Formation? How is his comprehension of his Divine Ability progressing right now?"

"He has reached ninety percent," the Ancestor of the Yan Family replied with a faint smile, stroking his beard.

"What?!" Yan Shoucheng cried out in shock, his face filled with disbelief. "How is it so fast? Just a few years ago, he was stuck at seventy percent introductory True Intent, unable to advance an inch."

"Truth be told, we are rely riding on the coattails of the Xu Family's good fortune."

The Ancestor of the Yan Family chuckled. "Over two years ago, the Xu Family's Grand Elder, Moyue, underwent his Shapeshifting Tribulation Transcendence above Cloud Lake. Kuangtu also observed that tribulation.

"He gained so insights in his heart.

"Over the past two years, his comprehension of the Thunder and Fire True Intent has advanced by leaps and bounds."

Pausing for a mont, he continued, "Of course, the final step is the most difficult. Over the last few centuries in our Azure Dragon Prefecture, many geniuses have reached this exact point.

"But before the Xu Family ca along, not a single one had ever managed to break through."

"Is Kuangtu confident?"

"He is naturally uninhibited, and his Dao Heart is unyielding in the face of a hundred setbacks. Although his innate talent and comprehension cannot be considered absolute top-tier, they are still undeniably excellent. He has confidence in himself, so all we can do is believe in him!"

"Shoucheng understands."

"The day Kuangtu successfully achieves Divine Ability Core Formation and his na shakes the Azure Dragon Prefecture will be the very mont our Yan Family rides the wind and rises to greatness."

Several days later.

News erged from the Heavenly Plu Sect once more, announcing that Perfected Person Fire Cloud had beco their guest elder.

His senior disciple, Ning Xueshi, also joined alongside him and was appointed as the Deputy Sect Master, granting him overall authority to manage the Heavenly Plu Sect.

Although Ning Xueshi was currently only at the Ninth-Level Foundation Establishnt realm—making him sowhat underqualified to serve as the Heavenly Plu Sect's Deputy Sect Master—he was the disciple of Guest Elder Perfected Person Fire Cloud, and he was also Xu Deling's senior brother.

With these two prominent identities, he could easily keep the other disciples of the Heavenly Plu Sect in check.

Not long after this, the Heavenly Plu Sect began recruiting disciples to expand the sect's foundations. The majority of these recruits were at the Qi Refining Stage.

Many descendants of Foundation Establishnt Clans and Qi Refining Stage Rogue Cultivators participated in the recruitnt.

The Heavenly Plu Sect rapidly stabilized.

The Azure Dragon Alliance also operated ever more smoothly.

Disciples of the Azure Dragon Alliance were stationed in all major cities and even within every Marketplace.

Their purpose was twofold: first, to provide oversight, and second, to form a massive communication network.

The elders wielding real authority within the alliance each carried out their respective duties, while the remaining elders carved out their own Grotto-Residences and cultivated in silence.

The entire Azure Dragon Alliance functioned with perfect order and efficiency.

Aside from the matters concerning the Heavenly Plu Sect in Cloudstream City, there were no other unusual disturbances.

The entire Azure Dragon Prefecture exuded a vibrant, upwardly surging vitality.

Ti was like a white colt flashing past a crack. In the blink of an eye, another month had slipped by.

Deep within the Xu Residence.

Inside a quiet room heavily layered with Restrictions.

Xu Chuan sat cross-legged, the aura surrounding him as deep and heavy as an abyss.

The profound scriptures of the "Profound Heaven Divine Refining Art" flowed slowly through his mind.

After enduring years of bitter cultivation, success finally arrived naturally. He cultivated the art to the perfected realm of the second layer.

Within his sea of consciousness, the power of his divine sense was like a full moon, radiating brilliant, pristine light.

It had reached the absolute zenith that a Golden Core Cultivator could hope to attain.

Relying on human effort alone, there was no longer any room for even a fraction of an incrent.

In truth, upon reaching the Golden Core Perfection level, without encountering a special opportunity, it was impossible to advance a single inch further.

The only way forward was to break through to the Nascent Soul realm.
