Becoming an Immortal and Ancestor, Starting from the Clan-protecting Divine Beast

48: Chapter 48 Blood Path Methods, Lin Family’s Schemes (5k+ words, two chapters combined)The Lin Family of Liquan Town.

The luxurious manor, covering several thousand *mu*, was enveloped by a Second Grade Medium Rank Formation, its white, misty light concealing all movement occurring within the Lin Manor.

Even the Gu Family, another Foundation Establishment Great Clan, failed to detect the changes in the Lin Family; their spies near the Lin Manor saw nothing unusual, and in their eyes, the Lin Family remained as it always was.

The manor was deep and secluded, carrying an icy chill that refused to dissipate, as if it were built upon a Cold Cavern.

Chen Zhuyun summoned a first grade upper rank Magical Artifact and a pair of Gauntlets, continuously injecting Crimson Sun Limitless True Qi to resist Lin Weiquan’s restraint, allowing him to catch his breath.

”What exactly is your Lin Family trying to do?” He looked at Lin Weiquan with sharp eyes, his brows furrowed in confusion. ”That Lin Family Old Ancestor doesn’t have much Lifespan left, and now you have the Gu Family eyeing you covetously. If you offend my Chen Family again, your Lin Family’s situation will likely become even more precarious.”

There was one thing he didn’t say: the Lin Family’s current actions were a desperate gamble, an all-or-nothing move. One wrong step could lead to complete defeat, potentially resulting in the extermination of the entire clan.

He had been present during the battle where the Zhang Family Ancestor personally went to Luoyun Mountain to invite Yuan Feng for a ’spar.’ Yuan Feng’s Vigor and Blood, blazing like a mighty river, and his majestic Fist Intent, capable of shattering mountains and crushing Peaks, made his own blood boil.

The Mid-stage Foundation Establishment Zhang Family Ancestor used his Life-Bound Magical Artifact and deployed all his methods, yet he was still defeated by Yuan Feng. This was the truth of that spar.

And the Lin Family Old Ancestor had already lived for more than four sixty-year cycle, meaning he didn’t have many years left until the Lifespan Limit of five sixty-year cycle.

Although a Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator could extend their life by consuming Lifespan Extending Spiritual Items or Lifespan Extending Medicinal Pills, the decay of the Physical Body and the decline of Vigor and Blood were unavoidable.

The closer one got to the Great Limit, the more severe the decline in the Cultivator’s strength, and this was true even for a Purple Mansion True Person.

Only by connecting to a dao position, refining a trace of Indestructible Golden Nature using the status of the dao position, condensing a Golden Core, and becoming a True Monarch, could one maintain Peak combat strength until the moment of death.

Furthermore, even if a Golden Core True Monarch perished, as long as their Indestructible Golden Nature remained, they could endure forever between heaven and earth.

Unless the connected dao position was already claimed or destroyed, a Golden Core True Monarch could truly achieve a form of Eternally Indestructible existence (pseudo), watching as oceans turned into mulberry fields.

Lin Weiquan picked up a teacup nearby, took a light sip, and said nonchalantly, ”Zhuyun brother, don’t say too much, don’t ask too much. Just watch quietly.”

He stood up, spread his arms, his eyes bloodshot and even filled with fanaticism: ”This is my Lin Family’s Century-Long Plan. Once successful, my Lin Family will surpass the Gu Family and become the Overlord of this Liquan Town.”

”We might even go a step further, producing a Purple Mansion True Person who will reside in Liyuan Commandery City, standing tall for a thousand years, guiding the affairs of the Commandery, and stirring up the winds and clouds of the region.”

Chen Zhuyun, standing nearby, felt a shiver of disgust. The mental state of the Second Master Lin’s eldest son seemed somewhat off, giving him the urge to get goosebumps.

”Has this person been hit by a Suppression Type Spell from an Evil Demon, or has he been parasitized by one?” Chen Zhuyun’s thoughts raced. Lin Weiquan looked wrong no matter how he viewed him.

”Miss Zhirou, how can this be our Opportunity? I fear it will become our grave.”

Chen Zhuyun sighed internally. Feeling the jade talisman in his arms, his troubled mind calmed slightly, and his confidence increased.

”I hope the jade talisman Uncle Yuan gave me is powerful enough. Ideally, it can take Miss Zhirou and me away from this bizarre place, the Lin Manor.”
