Family Cultivation: I Am the Guardian Beast of the Clan

No matter how beautiful the ancient records were, reality had slapped them in the face. It wasn't a Nascent Soul Peak realm cultivator crossing tribulations but a Golden Core White Snake.

"A Golden Core cultivator? Even Heaven itself can't pull off such a joke. A Golden Core cultivator experiencing the tribulation of the Soul Formation Realm? Isn't that like a Qi Condensation cultivator defeating a Nascent Soul cultivator? Is it hiding its cultivation?"

"Haha, this is getting interesting. When a Golden Core cultivator experiences the tribulation of the Soul Formation Realm, everyone knows there's something fishy going on. Here are over a hundred Golden Core cultivators, and there might even be Nascent Soul cultivators hiding in the shadows. The moment the White Snake successfully crosses the tribulation, that will be the true beginning of its tribulation."

Outside Renhuai County, tens of thousands of cultivators were discussing. Most of them were not only surprised but also somewhat delighted. They anticipated a battle of Golden Core cultivators and even thought about sneaking into Renhuai County to see if they could gain some benefits.

In a hidden corner high in the sky.

Lin Ran and Lin Zhongba stood quietly in the sky, their expressions filled with concern as they gazed at the shadow of the Grand Ancestor's body below Azure Mountain.

Beside the two, a white scale floated silently. A white halo spread out, enveloping Lin Ran and Lin Chongba, making them completely undetectable even to Nascent Soul cultivators, let alone Golden Core cultivators.

A day had passed in the blink of an eye. In the sky, the range covered by the Thunder Tribulation was rapidly shrinking. The Thunderfall Waterfall below the Azure Mountain was also experiencing the same change. Everyone knew that the Soul Formation Dao Lord Tribulation was about to disappear.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for passing the Bloodline Tribulation and gaining the Thunder Calamity Bloodline Divine Power: Thunder Emperor!]

[Thunder Emperor: Summon a Thunder Emperor one level higher than the host!]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for refining your cultivation; your cultivation has reached the peak of the Ninth Revolution of the Golden Core!]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for condensing ten thousand strands of God and Demon Power; the Demonic God Sea has been successfully opened, and you have reached the Fourth Refinement of the Demonic God!]

[You have reached the Nascent Soul Realm!]

Amidst the thunder, Lin Xuan heard the long-awaited voice of the system. The talent divine ability of the Thunder Calamity had finally awakened. He had also refined the eight hundred years of cultivation he gained from the System during the Thunder Tribulation.

Under the enhancement of the bloodline power, Lin Xuan's cultivation instantly reached the peak of the Ninth Revolution of the Golden Core. He was just one step away from breaking through the Golden Core Realm and forming a Nascent Soul. At that time, he would truly be able to establish a foothold in the human territory.

In fact, if he encountered an ordinary person, he wouldn't need to go through such trouble. The enhancement brought by the Thunder Calamity Bloodline was enough to instantly jump from the Golden Core Realm to the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm. If there were other opportunities or high-level elixirs, he might even break through to the Soul Formation Realm. Although the probability was low, it wasn't impossible.

However, in Lin Xuan's case, he couldn't even breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Realm. There was only one reason for this. The most critical factor for breaking through from the Golden Core Realm to the Nascent Soul stage was the thread of consciousness left inside the Golden Core. It needed to grow stronger under the nurturing of the Golden Core, absorb the power of the Golden Core, and form a Nascent Soul.

But Lin Xuan had condensed a Great Dao Golden Core. One could imagine how strong his spiritual power had to be to break through it. In theory, the power of nurturing the Great Dao Golden Core was also abnormal.

Lin Xuan wouldn't be stuck at this step. Given enough time, his spiritual power would eventually be cultivated to a terrifying level by the Great Dao Golden Core. By then, he could break through the Golden Core Realm and form a Nascent Soul.

During this period, Lin Xuan indeed felt that the spiritual power in his Sea of Consciousness was rapidly increasing. His cultivation speed was thousands or even tens of thousands of times faster than that of an ordinary Golden Core cultivator.

After all, the soul was a unified entity. When the strand of consciousness in the Great Dao Golden Core received nourishment and grew, the consciousness and soul power in the Great Dao Golden Core would also gain strength. This was one of the reasons Lin Xuan could use the projection power of a Soul Formation Realm Dao Lord's soul earlier. He could bear this kind of consumption.

However, the time Lin Xuan had condensed the Great Dao Golden Core was relatively short, at most a few months. No matter how incredible the Great Dao Golden Core was, it couldn't give him the power to break through so quickly.

The enhancement of the Thunder Calamity Bloodline also strengthened the path of the Great Dao Golden Core at the same time. The two were on the same level. In other words, no matter how strong the Thunder Calamity Bloodline was, it was useless to Lin Xuan. Because it would also enhance the Great Dao Golden Core within Lin Xuan's body.

"Fortunately, I already have a way to solve this problem!" Lin Xuan looked at the distant void with a delighted expression.

By his estimate, as long as he devoured the Heavenly Spirit Rainbow Maiden of the Golden Core realm, he would be able to break through the Golden Core Realm and reach the Nascent Soul Realm.

Just when Lin Xuan was in a good mood, the aura of the Soul Formation Dao Lord Tribulation in the sky completely disappeared. The sky was clear, without any traces of black thunderclouds.

Outside Renhuai County, the number of cultivators had increased to five hundred thousand, and a buzz of excitement filled the air. They stared unblinkingly at the white snake that stretched tens of thousands of meters on the Azure Mountain.

The aura of its Golden Core Ninth Revolution was not enough to deter so many cultivators present. On the contrary, everyone looked up at the hundreds of Golden Cores standing in the air.

They all understood that this white snake must have great opportunities. At other times, even if they knew about it, they wouldn't dare to have any evil thoughts. This white snake was not easy to mess with. More than ten Golden Core cultivators might not be its match.

After all, this was a monster that had emerged from the Soul Formation Dao Lord Tribulation. However, today, this white snake had brought trouble upon itself. The Soul Formation Dao Lord Tribulation had gathered five hundred thousand cultivators, and more than one hundred and thirty Golden Core cultivators had already appeared. If they all attacked together, even a Nascent Soul True Lord would be slaughtered. However, they lacked a leader.

Of course, not all cultivators were so reckless. Nearly one-third of them realized what was about to happen and quickly left the scene. They didn't dare to provoke the White Snake on the Azure Mountain.

On the Azure Mountain, Lin Xuan glanced at them from the corner of his eye. He naturally knew the intentions of these people. However, Lin Xuan only spared them a glance and then ignored them. They were just a group of weaklings. If it came to a fight, Lin Xuan was confident that he could annihilate them without the need for the Holy Descent.

Lin Xuan looked to the east, gazing at a specific location in the sky. He spoke with a mocking tone, "Old man, the Soul Formation Dao Lord Thunder Tribulation has ended. Aren't you going to show yourself? I sensed your ill intentions a day ago."

Although Lin Xuan's voice was gentle, it resonated for miles, and all living beings could hear it clearly. They couldn't help but look toward the same spot in the sky.

"Hmph!"

The next moment, a middle-aged man with a cold face and white beard appeared in the sky. He was dressed in a robe of red and black.

"It's him!"

There were many cultivators present, and the gloomy middle-aged man's appearance was recognized by many of them. Their expressions changed.

"True Lord Chu Mo, late Nascent Soul stage, one of the Thirteenth Disciples of the Western Emperor Dao Lord. He has been vying for control of Baoshan Prefecture with other Nascent Soul True Lords lately. I didn't expect him to give up Baoshan Prefecture and come here."

A peak Golden Core Realm elder murmured to himself.

"A Golden Core Realm demon snake dares to be so audacious in the territory of the human race. Today, on behalf of our sect, I will kill you!"

True Lord Chu Mo's expression was icy, and he looked at Lin Xuan with a strong killing intent. Then, he struck with a palm, and his Nascent Soul power condensed into a giant palm tens of thousands of meters in size, reaching out to grab Lin Xuan.

"Protect Grand Ancestor!"

In the distance, Lin Xiuqi saw the situation and quickly gave orders to the family members. Behind him, thousands of Lin family members released their own auras without hesitation. Every one of them wore a determined and brave expression.

All the people of the Lin family had long considered Lin Xuan as their religious leader. For better or for worse, they were bound together! In the beginning, they had fought their way out of the Azure Mountain Barrier. Today, they could fight back with all their might.

After giving the orders, thousands of Lin family members rose into the air and flew toward the Azure Mountain like moths to a flame. Witnessing this scene, the surrounding cultivators fell silent.

They marveled at the madness of the Lin family. Their opponent was a late Nascent Soul True Lord. What would they do if they got into a fight? They would surely meet their doom. Fortunately, at this critical moment, Lin Xuan's voice resounded throughout heaven and earth.

"No need to come. Just watch. This old man wants to harm me? His experience is far too lacking!"

Lin Xuan's disdainful words echoed far and wide. Chu Mo's face turned even colder.

"You're just trying to win with words!"

With those words, the palm imprint that covered the sky descended even faster, and its power was several times stronger than before.

"Senior Sister, this old man dares to impersonate the Ancestral Temple and might cause misunderstandings with my big brother. It's not good. The Hall Master specially instructed us not to offend big brother, and we should try to get along with him as much as possible. Today, I, Fang Yan will teach this old man a lesson on behalf of the Ancestral Temple and big brother."

On a distant mountain peak, Fang Yan's face was full of anger. He moved slightly, preparing to kill. This old man had slapped his future big brother and used the Ancestral Temple's name without permission. He was jumping around in front of Young Master Fang. He must die!

Nangong Ruoxian glanced at Fang Yan and said coldly, "Don't worry. You don't need to do anything. Your future senior brother will send him into the Unity Realm in three moves or less."
