344: Chapter 344 The First Card Opening in the New World

Seeing her daughter's shy expression, how could Ruan Yu not understand her thoughts?

"Xiangjun, you have likely realized that this Chen Hu is a Soul Transformation Prodigy. Furthermore, we are not the only Family that knows this news. As expected, The Four Great Transformation-Divinity Families will likely all rush to visit Chen Hu's mansion tomorrow!"

Hearing her mother's meaningful words, Shen Xiangjun couldn't help but feel a tightening in her heart: "Mother, do you mean that The Four Great Transformation-Divinity Families will marry off their daughters?"

"You could say that!"

Ruan Yu retorted: "Chen Hu is under five hundred years old, and the possibility of him reaching the Dao Integration Realm is very high. Once he reaches the Dao Integration Realm, even your Seven Emotions Sword Sect would be willing to recruit him as a Grand Elder!"

"Once he becomes a Grand Elder of the Seven Emotions Sword Sect, not to mention walking sideways in the July Domain, at the very least, not many people would be willing to offend him!"

"Then Mother, what should I do?" Shen Xiangjun asked.

With her beauty and Aptitude, it would not be difficult for her to marry someone in the Spirit Severing Realm.

However, those in the Spirit Severing Realm were all somewhat advanced in age.

Of course, she could also marry the descendants of those in the Spirit Severing Realm.

But how could marrying a descendant of a Spirit Severing expert be as good as marrying a young Spirit Severing expert directly?

"He has just settled down, hasn't he? We will bring gifts to visit him tomorrow, and you can take the Opportunity to draw closer to him!" Ruan Yu smiled.

"Mm, I will listen to Mother!"

Meanwhile.

The Jiang Family.

The Jiang Family Patriarch summoned the Family Head and a group of Elders.

"How many women in our Jiang Family are outstanding in appearance, have reached the Golden Core Realm in strength, and are not yet married or betrothed?"

Jiang Yuan quickly replied: "Reporting to the Old Ancestor, my daughters Jiang Qingxue and Jiang Qingling, as well as Jiang Wanrong and Jiang Feifei, all meet the requirements. However, Qingxue is in seclusion attempting a Breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Realm, Qingling is out gaining experience, and Jiang Wanrong and Jiang Feifei have both joined the Lanyue Sect!"

The Jiang Family Patriarch immediately said: "Have Qingxue come out of seclusion. Tomorrow, she will accompany me to the Liuyun Immortal Mansion to visit Fellow Daoist Chen!"

"Old Ancestor, do you want to matchmake Qingxue and Senior Chen?" Jiang Yuan hesitated: "Qingxue has Medium Grade five-element Spiritual Roots; she still has a chance to attempt a Breakthrough to the Spirit Severing Realm in the future!"

"Heh!"

The Jiang Family Patriarch gave a disdainful laugh: "How many years has it been since I founded the Jiang Family? Over these years, haven't there been seventy or eighty, if not a hundred, individuals born with five-element Spiritual Roots? Yet, has even one of them reached the Spirit Severing Realm?"

He paused and continued: "Do you really think the Spirit Severing Realm is like cheap cabbage, where having Aptitude is enough?"

To reach the Spirit Severing Realm, neither Aptitude nor Opportunity can be lacking.

Think again, how many living beings are there in the July Domain?

Among the many living beings, are there few with five-element Spiritual Roots?

There are probably millions of them.

Yet how many are in the Spirit Severing Realm?

Even top-tier Sects like the Seven Emotions Sword Sect only have a mere twenty or thirty people in the Spirit Severing Realm.

Even the Seven Emotions Sword Sect has only cultivated twenty or thirty Spirit Severing experts.

On what grounds do you think our Jiang Family can produce a second Spirit Severing expert?"

After being rebuked by the Old Ancestor, Jiang Yuan fell silent.

Indeed, how difficult it is to become a Spirit Severing expert.

Just take himself for example.

He also has High Grade five-element Spiritual Roots.

Moreover, as the Family Head, the Cultivation resources he enjoys are second only to the Old Ancestor.

Yet he has still been trapped at the ninth stage of the Nascent Soul Realm for over five hundred years.

He sees absolutely no hope of a Breakthrough.

Furthermore, before him.

Eight generations of Family Heads have stepped down from their positions to enter seclusion and attempt a Breakthrough to the Spirit Severing Realm.

Either they failed the attempt and suffered serious injuries, and are still recovering.

Or they are still continuing to attempt it.

There are even more serious cases; two of them failed the attempt directly, suffered backlash, experienced Qi Deviation, and became insane.

The Jiang Family is like this.

The other three families are the same.

All four families dream of cultivating a second Soul Transformation expert.

But no one has ever succeeded.

"Old Ancestor, I understand. I will go call Qingxue out of seclusion immediately!"

"It is good that you can understand!"

The Jiang Family Patriarch said: "Judging by my experience, that Fellow Daoist Chen is at most two hundred years old. What a concept a two-hundred-year-old Late Stage Soul Transformation expert is! As long as he achieves the Dao Integration Realm within a millennium, he will have the qualifications to achieve the Mahayana Realm in the future."

"Even if he does not support our Jiang Family, just by attaching ourselves to his name, no one will dare to touch our Jiang Family."

"Our Jiang Family can also use his reputation to develop and grow stronger!"

Jiang Yuan's eyes lit up: "The Old Ancestor is still the one who thinks far ahead!"

"Go!"

The Jiang Family Patriarch waved his hand.

Jiang Yuan took his leave and headed straight to where his daughter, Jiang Qingxue, was in seclusion.

"Boom!"

The doors of the Immortal Cave opened, and Jiang Yuan stepped inside.

Seeing his daughter, Jiang Qingxue, sitting cross-legged on a jade cushion, he said calmly: "If you cannot achieve a Breakthrough, do not force it, so as to avoid Qi Deviation!"

"I understand, Father!"

Jiang Qingxue nodded: "By the way, Father, you came to see me, is there something the matter?"

"I am having you come out of seclusion to accompany the Old Ancestor tomorrow to visit a Soul Transformation Prodigy," Jiang Yuan said. "The Old Ancestor intends to marry you off to him!"

"What?"

Jiang Qingxue's brows furrowed slightly: "Father, I do not want to marry!"

Jiang Yuan said: "Do not refuse yet, listen to what I have to say!"

Subsequently, Jiang Yuan recounted Chen Hu's situation to Jiang Qingxue.

After listening, Jiang Qingxue's expression remained unchanged: "Father, although he is excellent, your daughter may not be weaker than him in the future!"

Jiang Qingxue had been Cultivating since she was young, and she was already at the ninth stage of the Golden Core Realm before turning fifty.

She had hopes of achieving a Breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Realm in the coming years.

Therefore, she felt that she was also capable of stepping into the Spirit Severing Realm.

"Qingxue, one can be proud, but one cannot be arrogant!"

Jiang Yuan smiled bitterly: "Think about it, how many years have I been trapped at the ninth stage of the Nascent Soul Realm? Furthermore, I share the same Spiritual Roots as you. Recall that over these many years, our Jiang Family has had several individuals born with top-tier five-element Spiritual Roots."

"But have they achieved a Breakthrough to the Spirit Severing Realm?"

"Therefore, the Spirit Severing Realm is not as easy as you imagine!"

"Even if it is difficult, your daughter wants to try!" Jiang Qingxue insisted.

"Fine!"

Seeing that his daughter was insistent, Jiang Yuan did not bother to persuade her further: "I will send a message to your sister, Qingling, and have her rush back overnight. I just hope you will not regret this in the future!"

"Father, I will not regret it!" Jiang Qingxue said with a firm tone.

"Do not say that too early; it will not be too late to say that in a few decades!"

Once he finished speaking, Jiang Yuan walked out of the Immortal Cave and sent a message to his younger daughter, Jiang Qingling.

Similarly, a similar scene was unfolding in the Dong Family, the Ye Family, and the Zhong Family.

Those with ambition were more resistant to matchmaking.

While those with a clearer understanding chose to accept it.

Time arrived at the early morning hours.

Inside the Liuyun Immortal Mansion.

Chen Hu accessed the System interface.

After the underling points refreshed, he gained another 5.839 billion new underling points.

The total number of underling points reached 21.537 billion.

It was already enough to connect to a Dao.

However, he coveted the Time Dao and the Space Dao in his heart.

Therefore, he planned to save up to 50 billion before attempting a Breakthrough to the Dao Integration Realm.

Anyway, given the rate at which underling points were increasing, it would only be a matter of a few days.

Immediately.

Chen Hu activated the good luck card.

He opened the resource cards, item cards, and so on.

He only left the identity card, connection card, treasure hunting card, and intelligence card.

Now that he was in a new world.

He was quite looking forward to what kind of surprises these cards could bring him.

First, he opened the identity card.

He silently recited "activate."

He obtained the identity of a Nascent Soul Loose Cultivator.

After switching identities and reading the memories.

Chen Hu smiled with satisfaction. Through the memories, Chen Hu learned that this Nascent Soul Loose Cultivator had once committed a massacre that wiped out a Family.

But he had hidden away everything except the Spirit Stones.

Because he later learned that the Golden Core Family he had wiped out was related to a Soul Transformation Elder of the Seven Emotions Sword Sect.
