Family Cultivation: I Am the Guardian Beast of the Clan - Chapter 13: Bloodline Transformation, Three Days!

“Alright, I’ll leave the matter of the force’s promotion to you. If it’s not a big deal, don’t bother me.”

Lin Xuan looked at the people below and said. Lin Xiuqi and his brothers nodded. With their Grand Ancestor’s help, the Lin family had reached this point. If they couldn’t handle what came next, they might as well find a tofu and hit themselves with it.

The Lin family bid farewell to Lin Xuan and left the lake. Lin Xuan glanced at the appropriately sized lake, and then said, “System, release the Pool of Shedding Mortality.”

“Hum!”

The space trembled for a moment, and under Lin Xuan’s gaze, a ten-meter-wide white light gate appeared at the bottom of the lake. Lin Xuan hesitated for a moment, then controlled his body, which was more than a hundred meters long, and entered it.

As the light dimmed and then brightened, what appeared before him was a one-kilometer-wide golden pool of water, quietly standing there with no signs or movement.

Along the edge of the golden pool was a black stone that Lin Xuan didn’t recognize, as if a giant pit had naturally formed in the middle, holding the golden pool. The black stone was covered with intricate and mysterious purple patterns.

Lin Xuan stared at it for a moment and felt his head starting to ache. He realized that this was something he couldn’t comprehend at his current level.

He returned his gaze to the Pool of Shedding Mortality. At this moment, the most crucial thing was to achieve the transformation of the bloodline that had reached its limit.

“Poof!”

As he entered the water, Lin Xuan’s entire body submerged into the Pool of Shedding Mortality. Instantly, the golden pool water began to flow continuously into Lin Xuan’s body.

To his surprise, he had expected that changing the body’s bloodline would be extremely painful. However, the reality was quite the opposite. His entire body now felt light and ethereal, as if he was ascending.

Lin Xuan could only sigh in his heart that the system truly lived up to its name. Then he fell into a deep sleep.

An extraordinary and mysterious aura gradually emanated from Lin Xuan’s Mystical Python body. Nobody knew what level the bloodline that eventually underwent transformation would reach.

…

In the Zhang family’s main hall, after bidding farewell to Lin Xuan, the Lin family cultivators gathered here. Lin Xiuqi, as the family head, took his seat without any objections.

On his left and right were Lin Shanhai and Lin Jinshan. The other Lin family cultivators took their seats below. Lin Xiuqi took out a red seal and placed it on the table, immediately drawing the attention of everyone in the main hall.

The county seal of Renhuai County, representing the Second Rank Foundation Establishment force that controlled this area. The most significant feature of the seal is that it cannot be destroyed unless by someone who surpasses its grade by at least two realms.

Lin Xiuqi’s spiritual power poured in, and soon, the character “Zhang” on the red seal’s head disappeared, replaced by the intricate character “Lin.” At the same time, Lin Xiuqi quickly wrote in the air:

[Under Renhuai County, all the leaders of the First Rank forces, gather at Azure Heaven Mountain in three days without fail. Otherwise, bear the consequences at your own risk. —Lin Xiuqi]

With the message written, Lin Xiuqi waved his hand and sealed it into the county seal. Then, he turned to the Lin family members with a solemn expression.

“My Lin family has received the grace of our Grand Ancestor, and now we are just one step away from becoming a Second Rank Foundation Establishment force. For the foreseeable future, it will be a period of rapid development and growth for the Lin family.

“Second Brother!”

“Family Head!”

Lin Shanhai stood up and replied.

“All the conditions for the promotion to a Second Rank force are ready in our Lin family. Now, the only thing left is to gain recognition from the Nine Peaks Sect and leave a mark on the official seal. I have to stay to handle the upcoming matters. This task is for you.”

Lin Xiuqi looked at Lin Shanhai with a serious tone.

“Family Head, rest assured, I’ll take care of it.”

Lin Shanhai smiled slightly, readily accepting the task. This matter itself was not particularly challenging; in fact, it was a stroke of luck. As long as they brought the required thirty thousand contribution spirit stones, people from the Nine Peaks Sect would not make things difficult, and they might even allow the registrants to practice in the source pool.

According to past rumors, those who entered would usually make significant progress in their cultivation. In the most extreme cases, they might advance a minor realm, saving decades of cultivation.

Of course, this would require prodigious talent, and within the Nine Peaks Sect, even the occasional genius of this caliber was rare. The subordinate forces like the Lin family had never encountered such talents.

Lin Shanhai was also curious in his heart. After receiving the Grand Ancestor’s Python Seed, what level of aptitude had he now achieved?

Speaking of which, the Nine Peaks Sect was quite fair. For newly promoted Second Rank foundation forces like the Lin family, apart from the initial requirement of thirty thousand contribution spirit stones in the first year, they only needed to pay ten thousand each subsequent year.

This was equivalent to buying a place in the source pool for twenty thousand spirit stones, and in a sense, the Lin family was benefiting from this transaction.

Seeing that Lin Shanhai had no issue with his task, Lin Xiuqi turned his gaze to Lin Jinshan.

“Family Head!”

Lin Jinshan stood up obediently.

“Third Brother, we’ve just taken control of Renhuai County, and there are bound to be people outside who are unsettled. Lately, go out more and don’t hide your own aura. Be prepared in case someone with ill intentions causes trouble during this critical time.”

“Family Head, rest assured. Regardless of who they are, if they dare to cause trouble, I will dare to send them to the King of Hell.”

Lin Jinshan’s expression turned cold.

Reaching this stage was not easy for the Lin family, and he understood that better than anyone else. In his heart, everything related to the Lin family was absolute. Anyone who intended harm to the Lin family would have only one outcome — death.

Compared to Lin Xiuqi’s stability and Lin Shanhai’s refinement, Lin Jinshan had a cold and ruthless personality. This was something all Lin family members knew, so there was no doubt about Lin Jinshan’s words.
