Chapter 414: Challenging the Trial Again (2)
Translator: Daoist6fubtiW
The Yang family was the leader of Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance and one of the three major families in Guang’ an Prefecture.
Although the current strength of the Yang family was far inferior to the other two major families in Guang ‘an Prefecture, it was not to the extent of being vassal to other families.
Unless…
Chen Daolan glanced at Chen Daoxuan, wondering what tricks the Young Patriarch had used to trick Fairy Yang.
After discussing the details of the vassals, Chen Daoxuan held a contract made of talisman paper and looked at Yang Gongwan.”Fairy Yang, are there any problems with these agreements?”
Yang Gongwan read through the terms of the Chen and Yang clans three times in a row. The terms of the Chen and Yang clans were quite generous. Apart from the fact that they had to obey the Chen clan’s orders in terms of grand strategy, they also guaranteed the Yang clan considerable autonomy.
Moreover, Chen Daoxuan didn’t know whether it was intentional or not, but the vassal clause signed by the Chen Family and the Yang Family only involved the Chen and Yang Families, not the Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance.
Didn’t this mean that the Chen Family had no interest in the small families in the Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance, and that the Guang’ an Immortal Alliance would still listen to the Yang Family’s orders in the future?
It had to be said that this was good news.
After all, a mosquito’s leg was still meat, and the Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance, which the Chen family looked down on, could bring a lot of benefits to the Yang family every year.
After Yang Gongwan checked the terms and conditions and confirmed that there were no problems, both sides took out their clan seals and stamped them on the terms and conditions.
Suddenly, the talisman paper flew into the air and self-ignited, eventually turning into ashes.
At this moment, a faint connection appeared between Chen Daoxuan and Yang Gongwan.
Just like how Chen Daoxuan subdued the merfolk clan back then.
A vassal clause or vassal oath was different from a Great Dao oath. Its binding power was far inferior to a Great Dao oath.
It was a fool’s dream to rely on such a thing to make another faction completely submit to him.
The vassals between forces relied on the all-round influence and constraints of military power, economy, and even culture.
Just by relying on vows and terms, that thing was no nobler than the paper in the toilet.
Both parties signed the supplementary terms.
A complicated look flashed across Yang Gongwan’s face. She formally knelt down and bowed to Chen Daoxuan,””Greetings, Master!”
After Yang Gongwan finished her bow, Chen Daoxuan stepped forward and helped her up. He said gently,”We’re all family. There’s no need to be so polite in the future.”
“Thank you, Master.”
Yang Gongwan lowered her head.
Noticing that Yang Gongwan was somewhat uncomfortable, Chen Daoxuan took out an unused bottle of Essence of Vital Qi from his storage bag and handed it over.”Take this as my gift to your Yang family.”
“Master, you must not, this…”
Yang Gongwan was still rejecting him a second ago, but when she realized that Chen Daoxuan had taken out the Essence of Vitality, she forcefully swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.
Chen Daoxuan couldn’t help but laugh when he saw Yang Gongwan’s blushing face.
Yang Gongwan took a deep breath and took out a sapling from her storage pouch.’This item was originally a gift that my grandfather told me to give to my master. Since my master has forgiven my Yang family’s sins, this item will be my Yang family’s congratulatory gift to my master for breaking through to the Zifu Disciple realm.”
“Dao Comprehension Tea Tree!”
Before Chen Daoxuan could recognize the tree, Chen Daolan exclaimed.
“You recognize this tree?”
Chen Daolan nodded.” The Comprehension Tea Tree produces a single leaf every ten years. A single tree can produce at most nine leaves at once. Each leaf can greatly increase a cultivator’s comprehension for about an hour. It’s truly miraculous.”
Speaking of this, Chen Daolan couldn’t help but recall the effect of the Young Clan Leader’s sermon and immediately came back to his senses. The Comprehension Tea was indeed a treasure that could strengthen the foundation of other forces, but to the Chen Clan, it was just icing on the cake.
As long as the young clan leader took some time to preach to the elite disciples of the clan, the effect would be many times better than this Dao Comprehension Tea.
Chen Daoxuan naturally understood this principle, but this item was a token of the Yang family’s goodwill, so he naturally accepted it.
Even if the disciples of the Chen family did not need the Comprehension Tea, it would be good to trade or give it to others in the future.
In a good mood, Chen Daoxuan brought Luo Li along and personally sent Yang Gongwan to the outside of Shuanghu Island’s defensive array.
“Fairy Yang, have a pleasant journey.”
“Thank you for your good words, Master.”
Yang Gongwan bowed once more before disappearing in front of Chen Daoxuan.
Seeing Yang Gongwan fly away, Luo Li raised her head and looked at Chen Daoxuan’s side profile.””Chen Lang, are you going to subdue the various large families in Cang Prefecture next?”
Chen Daoxuan shook his head,” It’s just a passing thing. Even if the Yang family doesn’t agree today, it’s fine. For my Chen family, the most important thing is always our own strength. The vassals of external forces are just icing on the cake.”
Moreover, if the Chen family was not strong enough, what was the use of having more vassal forces?”
Hearing this, Luo Li nodded thoughtfully. She could not help but think of her own merfolk clan. To the current Chen family, the merfolk clan was too weak.
Her identity as the merfoik’s princess was becoming more and more incompatible with Chen Daoxuan.
Even though Luo Li knew that Chen Daoxuan never cared about this, other than Chen Xianhe, no one else in the Chen family dared to point fingers at Chen Daoxuan’s dao companion.
However, Luo Li didn’t want to become a useless vase. Having had a difficult survival experience in the Infinite Star Sea, she understood that if they wanted to go further together, they had to do their best to keep up with Chen Daoxuan’s pace.
At least…She wanted to catch up with Chen Daoxuan in terms of cultivation.
From the looks of it, Chen Daoxuan’s cultivation level was the same as hers, both at the ninth level of the Purple Prefecture.
However, the ninth level of the Purple Mansion Realm was different from the ninth level of the Purple Mansion Realm. With Chen Daoxuan’s Great Dao Realm, he could break through to the Golden Core Realm at any time.
And to Luo Li, the Golden Core stage was still an unattainable realm.
In particular, in order to transform in advance, she had wasted an opportunity to advance her bloodline god art. In the future, the resistance to breaking through to the Golden Core stage would be even greater.
“What’s wrong?”
Chen Daoxuan turned around and asked as if he had sensed the strange expression of the beauty beside him.
“It’s nothing.”
Luo Li shook her head and smiled.” Where are we going next? All the spiritual shells were already in the spiritual lake. Whether they could succeed or not would depend on heaven’s will.”
Chen Daoxuan thought for a moment and smiled.” Since the clan’s matters are temporarily settled, why don’t we go and see father-in-law?””
“Ah?”
Luo Li was a little at a loss. She gently rubbed the hem of her dress with her hands.” This… I…”
“What this and that? There’s no time like the present. Let’s leave now!”
Luo Li only felt her small hand tighten. It turned out that Chen Daoxuan had grabbed it.
Immediately after, there was a flash of speed.
Looking at the tall figure in front of her, the nervousness in Luo Li’s heart gradually dissipated, and she felt a wave of sweetness.
This feeling was like the first time she held Chen Daoxuan’s hand and swam to the bottom of the Infinite Star Sea.
Just as Luo Li was reminiscing.
“We’re here!”
Hearing the words in her ear, Luo Li raised her head.
Sure enough, it was the sea area of the Devil Ape Mountain.
Chen Daoxuan smiled at her and then dove into the sea with her.
Compared to when they were in the lianqi stage, their speed underwater was many times faster.
In less than the time for an incense stick to burn.
The two of them arrived at the Devil Ape Mountain.
Chen Daoxuan came to the bottom of the Infinite Star Sea to meet his father-in-law. His real purpose was to accept the inheritance trial of the Infinite Star Sea again.
Moreover, he planned to break through to the Golden Core Stage in the Devil Ape Mountain.
Similar to breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Stage and the Purple Mansion Stage, breaking through to the Golden Core Stage also had a requirement for the spirit meridian.
The reason why Chen Daoxuan did not require a spirit vein to break through to the Purple Prefecture Stage in the Source World of True Immortals was because the consumption of his breakthrough to the Purple Prefecture Stage was all provided by Yuan Qi essence.
When he broke through to the Golden Core Stage in the future, there would be no more Essence Qi for him to squander.
Yuan Qi essence could only be preserved for a few months at most. It had to be said that this was truly a pity.
Of course, there were not many regrets. The most important thing to break through to the Golden Core stage was not the Core Formation, but the Golden Core Thunder Tribulation after the Core Formation.

In the Immortal Cultivation world, it wasn’t that many Zifu Disciples didn’t have the confidence to reach the Core Formation stage, but rather that they didn’t have the confidence to overcome the Golden Core lightning tribulation.
This was especially true after Chen Daoxuan had personally witnessed the terror of the Golden Core Tribulation Lightning. He now understood even more clearly why all Zifu Disciples feared the Golden Core Tribulation Lightning.
Even the current him did not dare to say that he would be able to successfully transcend the tribulation without any accidents.
Among the three tribulations of the Golden Core Lightning Tribulation, Chen Daoxuan was the least confident in the simplest tribulation of the physical body.
This was because his body-refining cultivation had only reached the lowest limit of the Golden Core Lightning Tribulation-the peak of the Flesh and Blood Derivation realm..
