I Built A Family Of Immortal Cultivators

Chapter 419: Mutation and the Chen Family

"Senior, may I ask what brings you here?"

Lin Qing's cultivation at the Gold Core stage made the Foundation Building cultivator who received him at the Treasure Pavilion show immediate respect.

Lin Qing then explained the purpose of his visit: "I..."

Half an hour later, Lin Qing left with a smile on his face. After a thorough appraisal, it was determined that there was nothing wrong with the Three Yang Water in his possession. It seemed that he had been overly cautious. But such caution is always a good thing.

As for the appraiser who, after the appraisal, invited Lin Qing to auction the Three Yang Water at their auction, Lin Qing politely declined. With his cultivation level, he knew better than to mess with the auction industry.

However, the auctioneer immediately invited him to participate in a grand auction held by their Treasure Pavilion three days later, and Lin Qing did not refuse.

Feeling in a good mood at the moment, Lin Qing wandered around the Nine Immortals District. He planned to attend the auction in three days to see if there were any good items.

But...

Before Lin Qing could attend the auction in three days, he received news that concerned him.

"You mean the two Nascent Soul cultivators from the Huang Family, one dead and one missing, and now the Chen Family, who is against the Huang Family, has already taken action against them?" In a restaurant, Lin Qing asked in surprise a Foundation Building cultivator.

"Senior, you are absolutely right. If it weren't for the restrictions in the main city of the Huang Family, the Chen Family would have broken through long ago. But now they won't be able to hold on for much longer. The Chen Family is currently inviting restriction masters from all over to come and break the restrictions," said the Foundation Building cultivator next to him.

Without rushing to ask further, Lin Qing picked up the tea on the table and took a sip.

Coincidentally, after wandering around the Nine Immortals District, Lin Qing casually came to a restaurant to eat. Unexpectedly, he heard this Foundation Building cultivator talking about the Huang Family. Lin Qing immediately asked for more details and the Foundation Building cultivator was willing to share everything with him.

According to him, one of the two Nascent Soul cultivators from the Huang Family died a year ago, and the other one recently went missing. As soon as the Chen Family, who has always been at odds with the Huang Family, learned about this, they immediately took action. Now, any cultivator with a little bit of cultivation in the Gu Chuan County knows about it.

"It seems I should go to the Huang Family first."

After thinking for a moment, Lin Qing made this decision.

Although he was also looking forward to the auction in three days, obtaining the Ice Soul Immortal Art of the Huang Family was something he must do. With the current conflict between the Chen Family and the Huang Family, this was a good opportunity. If he missed it, it would not be easy for him to obtain it later, whether it was the Chen Family swallowing the Huang Family or the Huang Family recovering its strength.

"Thank you." Lin Qing said to the Foundation Building cultivator, whose name and surname he didn't know.

Upon hearing Lin Qing's words, the Foundation Building cultivator immediately replied, "It is my honor to be able to converse with Senior."

"Hahaha."

Upon hearing this, Lin Qing burst into laughter and then gave him ten spirit stones before leaving the restaurant.

Afterwards, Lin Qing flew towards the Huang Family stronghold in Guchuan County.

Unlike their Lin Family Mountain in Yunzhou, the Huang Family's ancestral residence was built on the plains of Guchuan County. The main city of the Huang Family, built on a fourth-grade spiritual vein, was famous in the surrounding counties. Normally, with Nascent Soul cultivators present, no one dared to have any thoughts about it.

But now, things were different. Two Nascent Soul cultivators from the Huang Family had encountered trouble one after another, and the entire main city was surrounded by the Chen Family.

When Lin Qing arrived, the area within a thousand miles was under martial law by the Chen Family. No wandering cultivators were allowed in or out. In front of Lin Qing, there was a Gold Core cultivator from the Chen Family and three Foundation Building cultivators.

"Fellow Daoist, beyond this point is the restricted area of our Chen Family. If Fellow Daoist is in a hurry, please take a detour," the Gold Core cultivator politely said to Lin Qing with a smile.

Lin Qing was somewhat troubled. He was not in a hurry to travel, but had come to see if there were any opportunities to take advantage of. Unexpectedly, the Chen Family was so cautious that they didn't even allow anyone to approach. As for forcefully breaking through, there was a Nascent Soul cultivator from the Chen Family present.

While Lin Qing hesitated and didn't know what to say, the Gold Core cultivator seemed to have thought of something. His expression changed and he said, "Fellow Daoist, could it be that you have come at the invitation of our Chen Family to break the Huang Family's restrictions?"

"That's correct," Lin Qing immediately realized. Previously, he had heard from the Foundation Building cultivator that the Chen Family had invited a master of restrictions to break the restrictions of the Huang Family's main city. This time, he happened to be able to make use of it.

In terms of his level of restrictions, he was an advanced restriction master, just one step away from being a top-level master. Although he couldn't set up advanced restrictions due to his cultivation level, it didn't matter when it came to identifying and solving problems. He was confident that among Gold Core cultivators, there were probably none who could surpass him in the field of restrictions. Even Nascent Soul cultivators who were proficient in restrictions were mostly only intermediate restriction masters, with very few being advanced. So he didn't need to worry about his level.

At this moment, Lin Qing added, "I only heard someone say this. I don't have any invitation letter or anything like that."

"Hahaha," the Chen Family's Gold Core cultivator laughed. "All visitors are guests. As long as Fellow Daoist can help our Chen Family, we will definitely not treat Fellow Daoist unfairly."

"That's good," Lin Qing also smiled and nodded.

"In that case, Fellow Daoist, come with me to meet our ancestor. With Fellow Daoist's cultivation level, you must be extraordinary in the field of restrictions. Our ancestor will be very pleased to see you," the Chen Family's Gold Core cultivator said again.

Lin Qing nodded, and then he was led by the Chen Family's Gold Core cultivator to meet their ancestor.

On the way, Lin Qing also learned that this Gold Core cultivator was named Chen Guxing and currently served as an executive in the Chen Family. After learning his name, Lin Qing also asked why the Chen Family had taken action against the Huang Family.

To Lin Qing's surprise, Chen Guxing didn't conceal anything and revealed the truth.

Not only did Lin Qing learn the inside story, but he also understood the reason why the Chen Family took action and why the forces in Guchuan County didn't stop them.

It turned out that the Huang Family, on the surface, was a prominent family in Guchuan County with a good reputation. However, secretly, they were a demonic family. The core members of the family practiced demonic cultivation techniques, which were extremely cruel and required a large amount of flesh and blood for cultivation. Normally, the Huang Family kept a low profile, but after a cultivator from the Chen Family went missing, the Chen Family investigated and discovered this shocking truth.

Not only were their cultivators brutally killed by the Huang Family, but countless other wandering cultivators were also killed by them.

Previously, because the Huang Family had two Nascent Soul cultivators, even if others knew about it, they could do nothing. Other forces also turned a blind eye. But now that the two Nascent Soul cultivators had died or gone missing, the Chen Family naturally couldn't sit still and had to launch an attack.

However, after hearing Chen Guxing's explanation, Lin Qing also realized that attacking the Huang Family was not only important, but also involved tremendous benefits. Once they swallowed up the Huang Family, the Chen Family's future development would be limitless.

While they were talking, the two of them arrived at a place shrouded in mist.
