"I can't even call it invincible." Chen Xuan said with a serious look, "The top two on the dark list are probably still stronger than me who has completed the foundation building period."
Tang Qiuling was very surprised. In her opinion, Chen Xuan was extremely strong. There were actually two people in the world who were more powerful than Chen Xuan. What level of monsters were they?
Then, she thought that Chen Xuan's cultivation speed was so fast and he could make breakthroughs in the future, so she was not worried that Chen Xuan would not be one of the top two opponents in the future.
"Chen Xuan, can you make another breakthrough? What is the next level?" Tang Qiuling asked curiously while combing her slightly messy hair.
Chen Xuan said in a regretful tone: "In this era of earth, the spiritual energy is thin, and it is almost impossible to break through the golden elixir stage, so I have cultivated until the foundation building stage is complete, and it is over."
"Ah? I thought you would continue to practice until you could ascend to immortality! So it turns out that you can only practice until the foundation building stage is complete?" Tang Qiuling looked surprised.
She always thought that Chen Xuan's cultivation would get higher and higher, but she never thought that Chen Xuan would reach the end of his cultivation one day.
Chen Xuan smiled bitterly and said: "Ascension to immortality is something further out of reach than entering the golden elixir stage. If I want to increase my strength in the future, I can only start from other aspects, such as practicing ancient martial arts. Maybe it's time for me to go
The Sword Emperor Sect of the ancient martial arts world is here for a visit."
This idea came about only recently.
Since he can only cultivate until the foundation-building period is complete, he must open up another path of cultivation.
The top two "gods" and "sons of devil" on the dark list are probably stronger than the monks who have completed the foundation building stage, which means these two must have mastered some secret method of cultivation.
Therefore, there must be many powerful spiritual methods in this world.
For example, the skills of the ancient martial arts world, or the inheritance of a thousand-year-old family.
At present, it is still unclear how powerful the Xuanyuan family is.
That's why Chen Xuan chose to practice ancient martial arts. After all, he has connections with the Sword Emperor Sect, the top sect in the ancient martial arts world.
"Do you also want to practice ancient martial arts? But if you practice ancient martial arts to the Gang Qi realm, it's not as good as cultivating it to the foundation-building stage, right?" Tang Qiuling asked another question.
Chen Xuan answered affirmatively: "A master of ancient martial arts in the Gang Qi Realm is of course not as good as a monk who has completed the Foundation Establishment Stage, but the realm of ancient martial arts should be more than the Gang Qi Realm. Is there a higher realm above, which involves the secrets of the ancient martial arts world? I'm afraid
Only those at the level of Gong Xuan Jianzun, the leader of the Sword Emperor Sect, or Qingming Jianyin, the master uncle of Huangfu Jianling, know about it."
"Then you should go to the Sword Emperor Sect and ask Sword Master Gong Xuan. Anyway, you are a guest of the Sword Emperor Sect. It should be easy to ask about the secrets of the ancient martial arts world." Tang Qiuling supported Chen Xuan.
After all, she herself was very curious as to what the ancient martial arts realm above the Gang Qi realm was.
Chen Xuan thought for a while and then said: "When Huangfu Jianling met me for the first time, he said that his master, Gong Xuan Sword Master, had cultivated to the ninth level of the Gang Qi Realm and was about to break through in the near future. It has been more than a year now.
Maybe we have already achieved a breakthrough! After the New Year, I will go to the ancient martial arts world."
Seeing Chen Xuan make a decision, Tang Qiuling seemed to have thought of something. She opened her mouth but stopped talking.
Sensing the change in Tang Qiuling's expression, Chen Xuan asked with concern: "What's wrong, Qiuling, are you worried?"
"No, I think your decision is a good one." Tang Qiuling still didn't intend to say it.
But Chen Xuan insisted: "Just tell me what's on your mind. Do you think I'm an outsider?"
"No..." Seeing that Chen Xuan really wanted to know, Tang Qiuling hesitated for a moment and decided to say, "Actually, it's about my family background."
"What's your family background?" Chen Xuan's eyes flashed with curiosity.
He always thought that Tang Qiuling's parents were doing business abroad. Is it different from what he imagined?
"Chen Xuan, you thought I would say that my parents are not ordinary people, right?"
Tang Qiuling smiled slightly and directly rejected Chen Xuan's guess.
"Actually, my parents are ordinary people. They live abroad and rarely return to China. I have been practicing martial arts with my master since I was a child, and I rarely hear my parents talk about family affairs."
"It wasn't until recently when my parents contacted me that I discovered that my family, or my mother's family, has a very deep connection."
"My father's name is Tang Bei, and my mother's name is Mi Ning."
Before Tang Qiuling could continue, Chen Xuan blurted out: "The surname Mi is one of the twenty-two surnames in the pre-Qin Dynasty!"
The reason why Chen Xuan was able to react so quickly was because he went out of his way to check those ancient Chinese surnames after the Icefield War.
The surname Mi is the same as that of Ji and Xuanyuan, and they are the 22 surnames of the Pre-Qin Dynasty.
People with these surnames are likely to come from thousand-year-old families.
So when Chen Xuan heard Tang Qiuling say that her mother's surname was Mi, her eyes were full of surprise. Could it be that Tang Qiuling also came from a thousand-year-old family?
"Chen Xuan, it turns out that you know the twenty-two surnames of the Pre-Qin Dynasty." Tang Qiuling was also very surprised. She did not expect that Chen Xuan knew the ancient Chinese surname Yuansou. She continued, "Some of the twenty-two surnames of the Pre-Qin Dynasty have been discontinued, and some have been passed down to this day.
, the families with these surnames are the legendary thousand-year-old families."
"So, you have the blood of the Mi family, a millennium-old family, flowing in your body." Chen Xuan looked at Tang Qiuling, and his eyes became a little different.
Tang Qiuling shook his head and said with a smile: "It's not what you think. In order to ensure the purity of blood, these thousand-year-old families will eliminate the descendants who cannot practice family inheritance in every generation. I only heard about mine from my mother.
My grandfather couldn't practice the Mi family inheritance, so he was kicked out of the family as early as my mother's previous generation. Those with pure blood are considered to be the main family, while my mother is considered a branch family, and can only live in secular society, and will never live in it.
Qualified to return to my home."
"Then what?" Chen Xuan had a premonition that Tang Qiuling would tell her real thoughts next.
Tang Qiuling said: "Then my generation came. Did you know? The Millennium Family attaches great importance to its own family tree. We are assigned to the branch family tree. The family members who are responsible for compiling the family tree will enter the secular society every year to find the branch family tree.
Register once and include the newborns in the family tree into the family tree. This is also the only contact between the main family and the branch family every year."
"In the second half of this year, Yundong Ancient Martial Arts Academy was recruiting new students, and a kid from the Mi family happened to be recruited. After this kid from the Mi family entered the academy, he heard that some of the most qualified people in the academy had my name. When he went back to tell his family,
I was overheard by the elder who compiled the family tree, so the elder reviewed the family tree and confirmed that I was a descendant of the Mi family. After the elders of my family knew that I had the talent to practice ancient martial arts, they decided to recruit me and my parents back to my family."
Hearing what Tang Qiuling said, Chen Xuan had a flash of inspiration in his mind and immediately asked: "You don't want to say that the Mi family is in the ancient martial arts world, right?"
"That's right." Tang Qiuling gave an affirmative answer.
