5: New tasks

“Reporting, Beast God, Ma Bangguo, the Third-Order Martial Warrior, is dead. There’s no one left in Qingyang Town who can threaten this old man!”

“Good. Then find a place for me to Cultivate in seclusion!”

“Also, come see me after you’ve settled everything. I have something for you!”

“Yes!”

“Right, what’s with the thundercloud above the center of the lake?”

Long Yuan looked towards the sky above the center of the lake in Qingyang Town.

It was very strange there; a pitch-black cloud, several miles wide, covered the area, with dazzling lightning raging within it!

“Reporting, Senior, that’s a natural wonder of our Qingyang Town!”

“It’s said that in the past, some people believed it contained a great Opportunity, but many Cultivators who came from other places to explore the thundercloud found nothing but raging lightning inside!”

“Later, no one paid it any mind!”

Chu Tianyang answered truthfully.

This was something many people in their Qingyang Town knew!

“Is that so!”

Long Yuan’s eyes narrowed slightly.

Looking at the dark thundercloud, he felt that place was very suitable for him!

When his cultivation was higher,

living directly within that thundercloud would be very impressive!

......

Long Yuan was led to the Chu Family’s secret grounds.

This was formerly Chu Tianyang’s place of secluded cultivation, where ordinary people were not allowed to approach.

His 160-plus-meter body was enormous,

coiling within the room, instantly filling the entire space.

With a thought,

the Dragon Emperor Palace appeared before his eyes.

The nine-story Dragon Emperor Palace was magnificent and resplendent,

with a lifelike golden Dragon entwined on each level’s eaves,

waves of Dragon might emanated from the Dragon Emperor Palace, causing Long Yuan’s Bloodline to tremble violently.

Only with his control,

otherwise, the Emperor might and Dragon might would definitely spread out, attracting the attention of others.

“With this trump card, at least I have the ability to protect myself in this world!”

Emperor Weapons are the highest Rank weapons in this world,

unless it’s a Martial Emperor, no one can shatter an Emperor Weapon!

“System, open the character panel!”

【Host】: Long Yuan

【Race】: Ice Rock Azure Python

【Realm Cultivation】: Fourth-Order Demon Ancestor Early Stage

【Physical Body Cultivation】: Third-Order Martial Warrior Early Stage

【Current Task】: Cultivate a Third-Order Martial Warrior for the Guardian Family

【Task Reward】: Half a month’s cultivation, 5 Physique Awakening Medicinal Pills (can Awaken any special Physique)

【Guardian Family Rank】: Two-star (Host’s cultivation speed increased by 20 times!)

His Realm Cultivation had improved,

and his Physical Body Cultivation had also improved!

Because Yao Beasts are born with a stronger Physique than humans,

even without specifically Cultivating Body Refining Cultivation Techniques,

a Yao Beast’s Physical Body Realm is only one major Realm lower than its cultivation Realm, while a human’s will be two major Realms lower!

Just like Ma Bangguo before,

although his Realm Cultivation reached the Third-Order Martial Warrior,

his Physical Body Cultivation was only that of a First-Order Warrior!

“Cultivate a Third-Order Martial Warrior?”

Long Yuan looked at the new task that appeared in the System.

This wasn’t too difficult!

Chu Tianyang had been immersed in the Second-Order Warrior Realm for a long time,

his inability to Breakthrough was due to the lack of a Legacy Cultivation Technique!

And he had the Fifth-Order “Azure Cloud Art,” which could just make up for his shortcomings,

so this task wasn’t very difficult!

As for the task reward,

half a month’s cultivation?

System is awesome!

It even rewards cultivation.

“Is half a month’s cultivation a bit stingy?”

Shouldn’t it be rewarded by the year?

“However, this Physique Awakening Medicinal Pill can be used by that kid named Chu Xiuran!”

“I just don’t know if anyone else in the Chu Family has an unawakened special Physique?”

Looking at the Dragon Emperor Palace,

Long Yuan’s thoughts moved, and the Dragon Emperor Palace instantly enlarged.

His massive body entered the interior of the Dragon Emperor Palace.

The interior of the Dragon Emperor Palace formed another space,

divided into nine levels,

each level larger than the last!

Long Yuan’s massive body, over a hundred meters long, only occupied a corner of the first level!

“This is quite good, otherwise, as my cultivation improves and my body gets larger, I’m afraid the entire Qingyang Town won’t be able to accommodate me in the future!”

But as Long Yuan began to Cultivate,

he soon discovered a problem:

the essence of heaven and earth here was too thin, even worse than the Nine Heavens Mountain Range, severely limiting his cultivation speed!

“It seems that finding a Heaven and Earth Spiritual Vein must also be put on the agenda!”

The higher the Rank of the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Vein, the richer the essence of heaven and earth produced.

This is a long-term plan,

not only concerning his own cultivation but also the cultivation of the Chu Family he protects in the future!

After all, the System will definitely ask him to help improve the Chu Family’s power in the future,

how can they quickly Breakthrough without a Heaven and Earth Spiritual Vein?

Moreover, Heaven and Earth Spiritual Veins also produce Heaven and Earth Spiritual Stones, which can not only be used for cultivation but are also the universal currency of this world!

Therefore, the more Heaven and Earth Spiritual Veins a Family controls, the richer they naturally are.

Meanwhile, outside,

Chu Tianyang arranged for some people to take care of the injured,

while he led some less severely injured Martial Artists to clear out the Ma Family remnants.

He was very clear about the need to cut the grass and remove the roots!

For several days in a row,

the entire Qingyang Town was in a state of alarm and fear,

with screams often heard,

those were the Ma Family’s Martial Artists and clansmen being slaughtered!

This is this world,

the victor is king, the loser is a bandit!

All ordinary citizens huddled at home, trembling with fear and anxiety, praying for such days to pass quickly.

“Old Ancestor, some good things were found in the Ma Family’s secret chamber. Please, Old Ancestor, come and take a look!”

Chu Tianyang, who had just killed the last Ma Family Elder, received a report from his clansmen.

“Let’s go, I also want to see what exactly caused the Ma Family to rise in such a short time!”

Chu Tianyang, curious, walked towards the Ma Family’s location.

Soon, he arrived in a secret chamber.

When he saw the treasures inside, Chu Tianyang’s breathing became heavy, and his eyes widened!

“Hiss, 3rd Rank Cultivation Technique? And Spiritual Artifacts and Medicinal Pills?”

“Where did that Old Bastard Ma Bangguo get so many treasures?”

Chu Tianyang held the 3rd Rank Cultivation Technique, extremely excited.

With this Cultivation Technique, he would be able to smoothly Breakthrough to the Third-Order Martial Warrior!

“There’s also a 3rd Rank Spiritual Artifact and two 2nd Rank Spiritual Artifacts?”

“Where on earth did this Ma Family get such a windfall?”

Chu Tianyang was utterly shocked.

One must know that their Chu Family’s treasured heirloom was merely a First-Order High Grade Spiritual Artifact.

After all, this was just a small Qingyang Town, not many people even became Martial Artists, let alone 3rd Rank Spiritual Artifacts!

“Men, take all these things back!”

“Also, no one is allowed to leak what happened here, otherwise, it will be dealt with as treason!”

Chu Tianyang immediately ordered.

“Yes!”

A 3rd Rank Cultivation Technique, a 3rd Rank Spiritual Artifact, and some Medicinal Pills—these were undoubtedly supreme treasures in Chu Tianyang’s eyes!

If word got out,

he worried it would bring disaster to the Chu Family!

Subsequently, he ordered people to begin taking over the former Zhao Family and Ma Family’s businesses.

The Zhao Family had been completely wiped out by the Ma Family,

and the Ma Family had been completely wiped out by their Chu Family.

“All of this is thanks to the help of Beast God!”

From now on, the Chu Family would be the sole dominant power in Qingyang Town!
