"Are we leaving just like that?"
The ancestor of the Song Family was taken aback, and after realizing what was happening, he did not dare to delay. He quickly waved to Song Yusang:
"Hurry!"
His divine sense had already detected the chariot above the long sky, and he felt a surge of emotions that he hadn't felt in a long time.
If the Song Clan could truly stand on its own in his generation, his name would be recorded in the clan's history, truly enhancing the clan's legacy.
Migrating a major clan was not a minor matter; it required a great deal of preparation.
Song Yusang quickly sent out a message, calling back the clan members from outside and simultaneously beginning to take stock of the mansion's treasury.
The most important was the inventory in the mansion's treasury—these cultivation resources were the family's accumulated foundation over the years, and they could not afford to lose them.
Thanks to the existence of storage magical artifacts, this step was not difficult to accomplish. The sweep was extremely fast; what took the most time was waiting for the clan members who had yet to return.
Beyond those gifted with the Immortal Bone, there were also many mortals within the Song Family who needed to be taken away—all of them blood relatives that could not be left behind.

......
"The Immortal Alliance has decreed that no cultivator above the Divine Infant Realm may strike. What brings you here? Are you trying to bring catastrophe upon Taixuan?"
In the sky above, an elder of the Primordial Spirit Holy Land sternly questioned, despite the vast difference in cultivation levels, he showed no trace of fear facing a Pseudo-Immortal.
This was only because the distance to the Primordial Spirit Holy Land was merely six hundred thousand li, and it would take merely three or five breaths for a Pseudo-Immortal to arrive.
"Were it not for the edict of the Immortal Alliance, you would not have the chance to blatantly spout such nonsense even now," Ge Yuan said, standing emotionless on top of the fiery red chariot, like a divine mountain of old, his brow raised as he swept a glance around and uttered indifferently:
"I am merely here to fetch the Saint Heir back to the sect. How could there be any fighting?"
Beside him, Shang Zuling bowed her head, looking down at the mansion below and spoke softly, "Could we ask the Taixuan Holy Son to show himself?"
Chu Zheng didn't hesitate. He stepped forward and arrived next to Ge Yuan, bowing respectfully:
"Thank you for taking the trouble to come here, Elder Ge."
"You're too serious, Saint Heir; it's merely my duty," Ge Yuan shook his head slightly and lowered his eyelids, waiting quietly.
In the future, Taixuan would rely on Chu Zheng; now his minor errands were hardly worth mentioning.
Moreover, it was only proper for him to make efforts for his own Holy Son.
Chu Zheng turned to look at the group of elders from the Primordial Spirit Holy Land, his gaze stopping on a woman in yellow robes.
She was the youngest and weakest in cultivation, yet she was subtly sheltered at the center by the other elders, her status self-evident.
Before she even spoke, Chu Zheng could feel a familiar aura. Every time he opened the Hidden Dragon List, the first qi mechanism listed was hers.
Shang Zuling, the first on the Hidden Dragon List, a mighty Divine Infant Initial Stage cultivator, following the Immortal King.
Shang Zuling sized up Chu Zheng and a smile appeared on her face: "I thought this Great Tournament of Ten Thousand Sects would proceed without any twists, but it turns out I underestimated the heroes of the world, foolishly relying on Spiritually Awakened eyes."
She could sense the aura emanating from Chu Zheng, his Celestial Foundation almost at Perfection, and Soul Condensing nearing reality, and she could vaguely perceive that Chu Zheng harbored some kind of Spiritual Body.
The judgment of the Immortal Alliance indeed wasn't mistaken. At this rate, by the time of the Great Tournament of Ten Thousand Sects, who knew what realm Chu Zheng's cultivation might reach.
Now, Chu Zheng already had the opportunity to challenge for the top position, indeed qualifying him to go to the Minor Immortal Realm; no wonder the Immortal Alliance would make an exception for him.
"Primordial Spirit Holy Land is not your enemy, whatever you need to do today, my Primordial Spirit Holy Land will not hinder you," Shang Zuling raised her hand as a gesture and the previously tensed elders at her side, albeit puzzled, followed suit and retracted their mana.
"What do you mean by this?"
Seeing this, Chu Zheng's brows furrowed slightly, surprised by Shang Zuling's attitude.
"Days are long ahead, and we might have many more interactions in the future. Today can be considered our meeting. If you need assistance with anything, just speak frankly." Searᴄh the Nôvel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Shang Zuling's eyes lost their mirth as she spoke slowly:
"I need an opponent, otherwise this Great Tournament of Ten Thousand Sects would be exceedingly dull."
After a moment of contemplation, Chu Zheng discerned a hint of something more in her words.
This Shang Zuling, each sentence seemed from a high vantage point, indicating an arrogance that she didn't bother to hide.
"Just so happens, I have a favor to ask of you right now," he replied, his voice light, with no hint of courtesy:
"I have heard that the Vast Earth Nourishing Spirit Scripture of the Primordial Spirit Holy Land is profoundly mystical, and I've long wanted to take a look. Could you lend it to me to see?"
Currently, he still needed the Wood Element and Earth Element Dao Foundations, lacking only the Immortal Ascension Method. As the conversation reached this point, there was no harm in asking.
"I can exchange it for another Immortal Ascension Method from you, Great Void Scripture, Heavenly Throne Yanshen Scripture, or Glazed Glass Scripture, you may choose any of these," he offered.
Upon hearing this, the numerous elders of the Primordial Spirit Holy Land all showed a change of expression, as each Immortal Ascension Method was linked to the rise and fall of a Holy Land and could not be lightly transmitted.
Moreover, they were somewhat shocked by Chu Zheng's grand offer; an exchange of Immortal Ascension Methods had perhaps never been precedent in the Southern Region.
Hearing this, Shang Zuling bowed her head in thought for a while and, after a moment of contemplation, she actually nodded in agreement:
"Alright, but I can only give you the first four layers of the mental method, the highest can cultivate out a Divine Infant. I want the Heavenly Throne Yanshen Scripture."
Such candid acceptance stunned Chu Zheng for a moment.
"How can you be so reckless?!"
"Ancestral Spirit, this must not be, by no means can this be!"
Upon hearing Shang Zuling's reply, the group of Primordial Spirit elders instantly lost their prior composure and raised their voices in opposition, as they could not bear the consequences of an Immortal Ascension Method being transferred.
"It's alright, it's just a part of the cultivation techniques. If the Holy Master were to blame, I would bear it all. Moreover, it wasn't given away for free," he said.
Shang Zuling had not made her decision without careful consideration. The Heavenly Throne Yanshen Scripture was highly renowned in the Southern Region, primarily focusing on the cultivation of the Divine Soul.
It contained secret techniques for refining the spirit handed down from ancient times, which uniquely enlightened the path of the Divine Soul. This perfectly suited her current level of cultivation and might significantly boost it further before the Great Tournament of Ten Thousand Sects began.
Immortal Ascension Methods were not easily obtained, generally bearing many restrictions.
While talking, Shang Zuling threw out a Jade Token.
Ge Yun stepped forward first, catching the Jade Token and, after confirming there were no issues, he handed it to Chu Zheng.
[Vast Earth Nourishing Spirit Scripture (Ninth Order/Incomplete): Immortal King's Secret Scroll, gathering the aura of the Earth's Spirit Veins to nurture one's True Spirit, extremely profound. With your current abilities, you're unable to repair it.]
It truly was the Vast Earth Nourishing Spirit Scripture!
The prompt from the panel invigorated Chu Zheng's spirit, and his mood immediately improved, at least confirming it wasn't counterfeit.
And it being of the Ninth Order, an Immortal King's Secret Scroll, it was considered a true treasure.
Without much hesitation, Chu Zheng casually threw out a Jade Token, which contained the Creation and Transformation Yanshen Scripture, also known to others as the Heavenly Throne Yanshen Scripture.
The quality of this cultivation technique was also of the Ninth Order, originating from the hands of an Immortal Venerable, leaving Shang Zuling without any loss.
Similarly, after a careful inspection by an elder of the Nine Transformations of Divine Infant, the Jade Token then reached Shang Zuling's hands.
After a quick inspection, Shang Zuling soon verified its authenticity and experienced an insight. She was at the Divine Infant Realm, and in just a short moment, she gained a deep understanding of this Immortal Ascension Method.
In conclusion, this was undoubtedly a mutually gratifying exchange, where each party got what they needed.
Having obtained the Heavenly Throne Yanshen Scripture, Shang Zuling did not stay long and soon turned to leave, taking many elders with her.
The air instantly grew quiet.
......
......
Night fell.
The Song Clan was busy throughout much of the night, only gradually finishing their preparations by dawn.
"The clan members have completed the verification," said the Song Clan's elder, who approached Chu Zheng and asked, "Saint Heir, how should we proceed to Taixuan?"
The distance from here to Taixuan was significant. While cultivators might manage, ordinary humans without cultivation could hardly endure such turmoil.
"Thank you, Elder." Chu Zheng turned to Ge Yun, bowing respectfully. This was a point he had already considered.
Originally, he planned to use a Small World to take the Song Clan away from this place, but he decided to keep that as his trump card.
Ge Yun gave a slight nod and, with a flip of his hand, produced an exquisite Flying Boat, which grew massively against the wind, spanning a thousand zhang across the void.
Such a large Flying Boat was more than enough to take all the members of the Song Clan.
Soon, the people of the Song Clan were assembled, boarding the Flying Boat in sequence, embarking on the migration route to Taixuan City.
Meanwhile, in a room, Song Lingqing felt somewhat restless.
Since the last time she left her family home, she and Song Lingxue had not seen each other again, and now she felt unexpectedly nervous.
During their last meeting, Chu Zheng was nominally her own man, but now he had transformed into her brother-in-law.
This change of status was profound, and even now, she was somewhat unable to adapt, unsure of how to face Song Lingxue.
......
......
To accommodate the ordinary members of the Song Clan, the Flying Boat did not travel quickly.
Furthermore, Chu Zheng, wanting to collect parts of the Heavenly Aura Broken Sword, made several stops along the way, slowing their travel even more.
When the Flying Boat finally arrived in Taixuan City, it was after more than a month's journey.
The repair of the Song Family's Heritage Blood Jade had imperceptibly entered its final phase.
[Family Heritage Blood Jade (Fourth Order/Incomplete): A medium to open a Secret Realm, is divided into six fragments. When assembled and supplemented with the essence blood of the Song Clan's direct lineage, it can open a Secret Realm, can be repaired (195/200)]
Chu Zheng did not hesitate and immediately chose to repair it.
A flare of blood light lit up, and the incomplete Blood Jade gradually merged, quickly forming into a complete circular Jade Wall.
[Blood Jade Wall (Fourth Order): Supplemented with the essence blood of the Song Clan's direct lineage, it can open a Secret Realm.]
With the Blood Wall restored to its original state, opening the Secret Realm was now nearly within reach.
As for the so-called essence blood of the Song Clan's direct lineage, Chu Zheng already had some ideas.
They were all from the Song Clan. The blood from the Southern Territory Song Clan could be used just the same; it was only a bit more diluted.
The same bloodline, once purified and refined, should cause a qualitative change through a change in quantity, especially with the repair panel available, replenishing Blood Qi was an overly simple task.
......
......
In the moment the Blood Jade took shape.
Within a pavilion less than thirty li from Taixuan Holy Land in Taixuan City.
Song Shengming suddenly changed his expression, flipping his hand to take out an incomplete piece of Blood Jade.
Under his gaze, the Blood Jade gradually turned to ash, scattering down between his fingers.
"How could this happen?!"
