Chapter 1469: The Great Luck of the Chu Family, Intercepting the Opportunity
He had a handsome face and bright eyes, with a faint hint of Dao inspiration emerging from his body.
“Cultivation focuses on understanding the harmony between heaven, earth, and humanity. Only when you are free of distractions can you feel the flow of Dao and comprehend its essence. When you develop a clear yet vague concept of Dao in your heart, you can give birth to the Dao and possess it, which means that from now on, your perception and understanding of the Dao will far exceed that of your peers.” freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
“Of course, having a Dao Seed does not guarantee that you will become an existence in the Dao Realm in the future.”
“Even in my large Chu family, with countless branches combined, there may be only a few individuals who can achieve the status of immortal kings in each era, let alone quasi-immortal emperors, immortal emperors, or even more unreachable Dao realms.”
“Innate talent and roots can assist you in reaching the level of immortal king, but if you wish to surpass the immortal king and become a quasi-immortal emperor, you must rely on acquired opportunities and hard work to carve your own path.”
“Of course, do not underestimate yourselves. Remember that even the lord of Xian Chu was not necessarily stronger than you at your age.”
This place was a branch of the Chu family of Xian Chu, and the person speaking before him was named Chu Bai.
As he preached, visions began to emerge throughout the world. Phantoms of dragons and phoenixes soared into the sky, golden lotuses bloomed, and clear springs sprang from the ground, all full of miracles. In the distance, many older cultivators listened attentively, standing with reverence and admiration.
Chu Bai was a legendary genius of the Chu family from Xuan Luo City. His experiences before his rise were somewhat similar to those of Chu Gucheng, the current king of Xian Chu, and were quite tragic. His mother had once been the third lady of the Chu family in Xuan Luo City; she was unmarried but had a son, not knowing who the child’s father was. This situation caused considerable trouble for the Chu family at the time, leading to a loss of face.
After Chu Bai was born, he never displayed any talent for cultivation and was regarded as a “good-for-nothing” by the Chu family for thousands of years since childhood. Both he and his mother were not welcomed by the family at all; they faced insults and ridicule and experienced the harshness and indifference of the world.
Then, due to an accidental “adventure,” Chu Bai was reborn and began to demonstrate terrifying talents, leading to an improvement in his circumstances. Of course, this occurred hundreds of thousands of years ago.
After Chu Bai’s remarkable rise, all the clansmen who had ridiculed and looked down on him at the beginning paid the price. Today, he had already become an ancestor-level figure in the Chu family of Xuan Luo City. However, if it weren’t for this whim, he had a premonition that opportunities awaited him in the Chu family of Xuan Luo City, and he might not have returned to preach to many clansmen.
“I remember when I was still here, listening to the elders preach, eager to embark on the road of cultivation. Yet, in the blink of an eye, hundreds of thousands of years have passed, my peers have long since perished, and I have become a generation of immortal kings, condensing the light of the quasi-immortal emperor.”
Looking at the slightly immature faces below, Chu Bai felt a mixture of emotions—moved and somewhat embarrassed. Time was ruthless; countless geniuses had been cut down, and how many beauties had been buried along the way?
Fortunately, he was different from ordinary people; he possessed a special talent that allowed him to see opportunities in the darkness, often enabling him to seize and snatch them away. Even if it was someone else’s opportunity, he could safely cut it off.
For hundreds of thousands of years, he had reached this point largely thanks to his extraordinary and terrifying talent. One must understand that ordinary cultivators, no matter how remarkably talented or well-resourced, could take hundreds of thousands of years to reach the true immortal realm, with the immortal king realm representing another significant threshold.
Of course, Chu Bai knew he was different from others. He was the type of person with great luck, as Lord Chu Gucheng had described. Even when faced with calamity or schemes against him, he could still receive the protection of the heavens, allowing him to escape danger. If he did not fall in the future, he would undoubtedly be able to achieve great things.
Currently, he remained a Dao Realm seed of Xian Chu, distinct from those who had exhausted their talents and all means to reach the Dao Realm. Dao Realm seeds like Chu Bai were so extraordinarily gifted that even the king of the country, Chu Gucheng, could hardly predict his future achievements.
“I have a hunch that the Chu family in Xuan Luo City will have a great opportunity, and this opportunity is linked to whether I can condense the light of the quasi-immortal emperor.” As he thought of this, Chu Bai felt a surge of pride.
If he became a quasi-immortal emperor, his strength would inevitably undergo earth-shaking changes at this level. Although Xian Chu had an unfathomable background with many Dao realm cultivators, individuals with great luck like him were still precious and rare.
Just as Chu Bai was lost in thought, he suddenly sensed an inexplicable rise in the temperature of the air. He frowned, surprised, and looked up into the distance.
At the edge of the sky, two massive suns were positioned side by side, their brilliant light dazzling and overwhelming. In the center of the even larger sun, a jet-black divine bird of the Golden Crow fluttered, its endless flames sweeping across the sky, scorching both the earth and the heavens.
“Patriarch Chu Bai, something is wrong. A three-legged golden crow has transformed into a scorching sun and rushed in from the east of the Longling Ancient Territory. It has burned countless ancient trees and mountains along the way, and many cities are facing disaster. The flames have turned them to ash, and the terrifying heat has melted some of the surrounding ancient planets.”
“Countless cultivators and creatures have died unexpectedly, burned alive by the flames left in the wake of the golden crow’s wings.”
“Some of our clansmen were unable to escape the disaster and lost their lives. We hope that Patriarch Chu Bai will take charge for us.”
At that moment, a stream of light shot quickly from the distance, transforming into an old man with a pale complexion, filled with urgency. He was the current head of the Chu family in Xuan Luo City, reporting quickly and anxiously, his face a mask of worry and anger.
The three-legged Golden Crow was a unique monster race from the Endless Demon Realm. Those with pure blood were regarded as the royal family among the demons.
For the rest of the demon clan, the three-legged golden crow carried a natural oppressive force comparable to that of the dragon and phoenix clans.
Upon hearing the Patriarch’s words, all the Chu people under the Daoist platform were immediately taken aback. Shock turned to anger as they processed the information. After all, Xian Chu was an extremely powerful force in the Xi Yuan Civilization, and as members of the Chu clan, they felt a sense of pride.
But now, a three-legged golden crow had suddenly invaded their territory, unleashing its aura without restraint, leading to the deaths of many. How could they bear this affront?
At that moment, Chu Bai also observed the scene at the edge of the sky: two round suns dominating the horizon, one of which was transformed by the three-legged golden crow. He disregarded the Patriarch in front of him, his expression growing serious as he frowned.
Although he was not close to the Golden Crow, he could clearly sense its presence. The strength of the opponent was extraordinary; just a few wisps of escaping aura had already caused boundless disaster, leading to suffering for all.
