324: Chapter 324 The Bai Family

Bai Jiang stared at Chen Hu with a shocked expression: "You... are you also a Cultivator?"

"I am asking you, not the other way around. Tell me about your origins!" Chen Hu's face turned cold.

Bai Jiang's expression shifted rapidly, but he decided to tell the truth, as this young man before him gave him a feeling of unfathomable depth.

Just now, under the suppression of the Aura he released, he felt like an ant; the other party only needed a single thought to crush him, a Foundation Establishment Second Layer Cultivator.

Therefore, he said: "Senior, please sit. The story is a bit long!"

"Very well!"

Chen Hu waved his hand, summoned a chair, and sat down.

Bai Jiang then began to narrate slowly: "Senior, I wonder if you are aware of the origins of this world?"

"I have heard a little; it is said to have been created by some great expert specifically to exile criminals!" Chen Hu said.

A flash of anger flickered in Bai Jiang's eyes as he continued: "Actually, our Bai Family are the criminals exiled by that great expert."

"Tell me more?" Chen Hu immediately became interested.

Bai Jiang said: "Originally, our Bai Family was one of the top Cultivator Families in the Great Cultivation World, and the great expert who exiled us was a matrilocal son-in-law of our Bai Family.

He was a complete ingrate who relied on our Bai Family's Cultivation Techniques and resources to achieve Immortal Ascension.

Unexpectedly, he repaid kindness with enmity. On the day of his Immortal Ascension, he slaughtered every Cultivator in our Bai Family at the Golden Core stage and above.

Later, he used great magical power to carve out this world.

He changed the rules of this world, erased all the memories of our Bai Family's remaining clansmen regarding Cultivation Techniques, crippled our cultivation, and cast us into this world!"

"Since he erased your memories regarding Cultivation Techniques, how did you obtain the techniques you Cultivate now?" Chen Hu asked again.

Bai Jiang said: "Those were continuously derived by the ancestors of the Bai Family generation after generation. Unfortunately, because there is so little elemental Origin Qi in this world, the derivation process was extremely difficult. Therefore, the techniques created by our ancestors are also very crude!"

"Then how did the martial arts techniques and warlock techniques of this world come about?" Chen Hu continued to ask.

Bai Jiang said: "When that person carved out this world, there were already countless ordinary people here. In the Great Cultivation World, ordinary people without Spiritual Roots can become stronger through martial arts, but even if one Cultivates to the Hunyuan Martial Saint level, their strength can only rival the Foundation Establishment Realm.

As for the warlock lineage, it was also founded by our Bai Family. However, even if cultivated to the peak, it can still only rival the ordinary Foundation Establishment Realm.

Moreover, the required cultivation resources far exceed those of Martial Artists, so our Bai Family destroyed most of the warlock Cultivation Techniques!"

"So that's it!" Chen Hu nodded; he had found the reason for the decline of the warlock lineage.

"As far as I know, there is a Void Realm passage to the outside on East Pole Island. Why doesn't your Bai Family leave through that passage?" Chen Hu asked.

Bai Jiang said: "That is a trap deliberately left by that person. Our Bai Family's ancestors tested it countless times, but even if one passes through the passage, it is a dead end!"

"Introduce the Great Cultivation World to me!" Chen Hu said indifferently.

Bai Jiang smiled bitterly: "Senior, we have been exiled in this world for tens of thousands of years. We do not know what the outside world has become!"

"No matter, just tell me what you know!" Chen Hu said nonchalantly.

Seeing that Chen Hu insisted, Bai Jiang dared not refuse and could only slowly recount what he knew.

The outside world is called the Great Cultivation World.

But in fact, it is divided into the Nine Heavens and Ten Domains.

The Nine Heavens are occupied by the Human Race, while the Ten Domains are occupied by the Yao Race and the Demon Race.

Among them, six domains are the territory of the Yao Race, and the remaining four domains are the territory of the Demon Race.

And the Nine Heavens of the Human Race are ruled separately by the Nine Great Holy Lands.

However, Holy Lands can also be replaced.

For example, in the first few years after their Bai Family was exiled to this world, an old Holy Land was replaced by a new Holy Land.

As for their Bai Family, they were originally a Cultivator Family under the rule of the Tianyu Sacred Land.

Within the clan, there were fifteen Mahayana Realm reserve Immortals alone; it was very prosperous.

Speaking of this, Bai Jiang specifically mentioned the power of the Holy Lands.

Generally, a Holy Land must meet three conditions: over a thousand Mahayana Realm experts, the need for an Immortal Artifact to suppress the Holy Land's Luck, and finally, there must be ten Immortals who have performed the "Self-Severing" of their cultivation sitting in command.

What is an Immortal who has performed "Self-Severing"?

Simply put, after becoming an Immortal, one must ascend to the Upper Realm within a short period of time.

If one stays in the Lower Realm for a long time, a terrifying heavenly punishment will descend.

Later, someone discovered that if an Immortal performs "Self-Severing" of their cultivation, they can stay in the Lower Realm.

But after "Self-Severing," they will lose their long Lifespan.

From then on, their cultivation can no longer be improved.

Therefore, an Immortal who has performed "Self-Severing" can be considered to have cut off their own future path.

However, although an Immortal who has performed "Self-Severing" has cut off their future path of cultivation, they can still exert the strength of an Immortal; even experts at the Mahayana Perfection are far from being their opponents.

Therefore, "Self-Severed" Immortals are the ultimate killing weapons; if combined with an Immortal Artifact, they can kill true Immortals.

Subsequently, Bai Jiang told Chen Hu many more things about the Great Cultivation World.

It was almost dawn.

Chen Hu prepared to take his leave.

"Thank you for telling me so much; these are your rewards!"

Chen Hu threw out three elemental Origin Stones.

Seeing these three elemental Origin Stones, Bai Jiang could not help but feel a surge of excitement.

He had been trapped at the Foundation Establishment Second Layer for decades.

Unfortunately, elemental Origin Stones were becoming increasingly difficult to collect.

With these three elemental Origin Stones, he should be able to attempt to break through to the Foundation Establishment Third Layer.

If he didn't use them himself and gave them to the younger generation of the Family, they might be able to attempt the Foundation Establishment Realm.

"Senior, please wait!"

Bai Jiang called out.

"Is there anything else?" Chen Hu asked.

Bai Jiang said: "May I ask how to address you, Senior?"

"My name is Chen Hu!" Chen Hu said.

"So it is Senior Chen. May I ask if it is convenient for you to reveal your cultivation level?" Bai Jiang asked again.

"It does not matter if I tell you: Soul Transformation!"

"What?"

Bai Jiang's eyes widened: "How is this possible? In this world, how could it be possible to Cultivate to the Soul Transformation Realm?"

As for suspecting that Chen Hu came from the outside.

Ever since Chen Hu began asking him about the situation in the Great Cultivation World, he knew that Chen Hu could not have come from the outside.

"Everything is possible. Is there anything else?" Chen Hu said playfully.

"Does Senior need any Disciples? My Bai Family also has a few people with excellent talent!" Bai Jiang said hurriedly.

"Not needed!"

Chen Hu shook his head. After giving the three elemental Origin Stones, he no longer owed the other party anything.

Seeing Chen Hu refuse, Bai Jiang gritted his teeth: "Then, Senior, do you need any servants?"

"What, you want to let your Bai Family's servants come and serve me?" Chen Hu said playfully.

Bai Jiang said: "Being able to serve an Immortal Master of the Soul Transformation Realm is a blessing for those brats. If I were not worried that Senior would look down on this old man, I would also want to serve you!"

Chen Hu smiled: "Then call them over and let me see!"

Hearing this, Bai Jiang was overjoyed and immediately said: "Senior, please wait a moment. This old man will call those brats to see you right away!"

Then, Bai Jiang immediately used his Divine Sense to transmit a voice message: "Bai Yu, Bai Yu, Bai Yan, Bai Ning, Bai Xian'er, come to me quickly!"

Upon receiving Bai Jiang's transmission, the younger generation of the Bai Family did not say a word and rushed toward the stone hall at top speed.
