Family Cultivation: I Am the Guardian Beast of the Clan

Chapter 8: Heaven Defying Effect of Pond of Shedding Mortality, Wonders of Heaven and Earth

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, on Lin Family's back mountain, a terrifying aura gradually spread and extended towards the foot of the mountain. This aura was concealed but not released, as if it were containing something.

At this moment, Lin Xiuqi had already assembled all the Lin Family's cultivators, standing on the back mountain, protecting Lin Xuan.

The Lin Family's cultivators had initially been unaware of what was happening. However, after sensing this aura, they exchanged puzzled glances, and an absurd thought sprang into their minds.

Could it be that the Grand Ancestor was breaking through to the Second Rank of the Cultivation and becoming a foundational existence in the form of a Second Rank Spiritual Beast?

"Hiss!"

Suddenly, a snake's hiss echoed from the bottom of the spirit pool. Then, to everyone's astonishment, a gray giant python over 130 meters long burst out of the spirit pool, soaring into the sky. It roamed freely in the sky, ultimately circling above the clouds, overlooking everything.

It emitted the terrifying aura of a Second Rank Foundation Establishment Beast.

"This…"

Lin Shanhai, Lin Jinshan, Lin Ran, and other Lin Family cultivators looked at this scene, shocked and at a loss for words. Even Lin Xiuqi, who had expected this, was dumbfounded at this moment.

"Congratulations, Grand Ancestor, on advancing to the Second Rank and Foundation Establishment Realm existence!"

Lin Ran was the first to react, her expression filled with joy. The breakthrough to the Second Rank Foundation Establishment was undoubtedly fantastic news for the Lin Family.

The rest of the Lin Family members soon realized the situation, and their faces lit up with excitement. They all bowed in unison to Lin Xuan and said, "We congratulate the Grand Ancestor on advancing to the Second Rank Foundation Establishment!"

[Ding, congratulations to the host for successfully advancing to the Second Rank. The talent skill 'Flowing Light' has grown!]

[Ding, congratulations to the host for successfully advancing to the Second Rank. The family protection talent skill 'Python Seed' has grown. The current number of Python Seeds that can be condensed: five.]

Above the clouds, Lin Xuan glanced at the Lin Family members below, then was attracted by the system's voice. The growth of two major talent skills was expected.

"System, check the information panel!"

[Host: Lin Xuan]

[Age: Twenty-three days!]

[Bloodline: Python Bloodline. Tier: Second (already at the limit!)]

[Cultivation: Initial Foundation Establishment!]

[Innate Divine Ability: Flowing Light! (Can increase speed up to fifty times at the maximum!)]

[Family Protection Talent Ability: Python Seed! (Current number of Python Seeds that can be condensed: five!)]

[Unused Items: One Beginner Pool of Shedding Mortality.]

…

Lin Xuan looked at the system panel. In three days, he had absorbed almost all the cultivation rewards from the system.

After breaking through to Foundation Establishment, the cultivation rewards were automatically converted into Foundation Establishment cultivation at a one-to-one ratio. Therefore, the surplus cultivation wasn't particularly valuable to Lin Xuan.

What truly caught Lin Xuan's attention was his Second Rank Python Bloodline. Having just reached the Second Rank, it had already reached its limit. He could theoretically continue to advance, but with his current physical aptitude, forcefully advancing even to the middle Layer of Foundation Establishment would require a millennium of cultivation.

The cultivation rewards from the system were based on his aptitude and what he would achieve in a year. With this in mind, Lin Xuan's gaze gradually shifted to another item on the system page.

The Beginner Pool of Shedding Mortality.

The name alone was intriguing, making one's imagination run wild. Lin Xuan had a thought, and the system displayed the relevant information:

[Name: Beginner Pool of Shedding Mortality!]

[Tier: Special Heaven and Earth Unique Item!]

[Effect 1: Can help all creatures immersed in it to improve their bloodline aptitude, enhance spiritual root quality, and the degree of improvement is uncertain. (The first immersed person gets the best effect!)]

[Effect 2: Can help ordinary people without spiritual roots reshape their spiritual roots and embark on the path of cultivating as immortals. (Current number of people it can assist: one thousand!)]

[Effect 3: Can help recover from all injuries, with the specific effect depending on the severity of the injury. (Effect example: Below Gold Core, limbs can be regenerated!)]

Lin Xuan was taken aback by the captivating information. This Beginner Pool of Shedding Mortality seemed to be something extraordinary, a Special Heaven and Earth Unique Item! The ability to improve bloodlines and spiritual roots, just this one effect alone was groundbreaking.

The second effect is even more amazing, helping ordinary people defy destiny and embark on the path of immortality.

According to the inherited memories of this body, practically everything required for this feat is legendary. Only cultivation forces of Rank Five or higher might possess it, and the effects would be incomparable to those of the Pool of Shedding Mortality.

In comparison, the third effect, while good, doesn't match the two preceding miraculous ones. Fortunately, Lin Xuan, who had been concerned about his bloodline aptitude, now appeared to have found a solution.

As for the Lin Family's information, Lin Xuan had no immediate plans to review it. Someone had been waiting beside him for a long time. Lin Xuan shifted his gaze towards a particular cloud in the western sky, his eyes cold.

"Old man, are you planning to keep peeping for long?"

With his current Foundation Establishment cultivation, he had already assimilated the bone and could speak. Below, the Lin Family members heard his words and looked puzzled. Was someone spying here? Why hadn't they noticed anything?

However, in the next moment, the expressions of all the Lin Family members changed simultaneously. The cloud Lin Xuan was staring at slowly revealed a person—a white-bearded old man in a blue robe, looking rather aged. He held a two-meter-long green dragon-headed cane in his hand.

Lin Xuan's gaze lingered on the dragon-headed cane for a moment— a Second Rank peak-quality magical item!

"Zhang Family Foundation Establishment Ancestor, Zhang Yaoyang!"

In an instant, Lin Xuan guessed the identity of the newcomer.

"Monster, I never expected you to have some skill. You just broke through and already detected my presence?"

Zhang Yaoyang looked at Lin Xuan and smiled, his eyes harboring a hint of killing intent.

Below, the Lin Family members had long turned pale. They had never imagined that the Foundation Establishment Ancestor of the Zhang Family, who had been renowned for a long time, would appear here. Would their Lin Family Grand Ancestor be a match for him?

A sense of impending danger rose within everyone's hearts.
