Immortal Cultivation Family: Start By Accepting Dao Companions

"You finally agreed to let me join your ethnic group."

Sheng Linmei thought to herself, feeling a hint of sweetness.

When she looked at Chen Ruoxi, she felt a lingering terrifying aura from him, causing her eyebrows to slightly furrow.

With the appearance of a powerful individual, the aura lingering on her was even stronger than her own father's.

"What exactly happened? It's impossible for there to be such a powerful existence in Nanzhou."

Sheng Linmei's eyes quickly filled with confusion, and her mind quickly deduced.

"Let's go."

Chen Feng's mana pulled her, and they disappeared in an instant, crazily leaping towards their clan.

Deep within the Chu Ling Mountains.

Inside the underground palace.

"You have the 'aura of immortality' on you."

A strange-looking dumb bird landed on Chen Chuhao's shoulder, flapping its wings.

Chen Chuhao didn't dare to move.

His body was extremely stiff, all because of the bird that landed on his shoulder.

There was a kind of magical power circulating in its aura, even if it approached him, his body involuntarily felt fear.

It seemed that any movement of his flesh and blood was a great disrespect to it.

"Elder?"

Chen Chuhao struggled to move his body, his facial muscles extremely stiff.

He managed to squeeze out two words.

"Goo goo goo, I forgot."

The dumb bird tilted its head, and the suppression on Chen Chuhao disappeared in an instant.

He gasped for breath, looking at it in shock.

The feathers on the other party were somewhat tattered, and there were three hairs growing on its bird head.

There was no trace of any divine or extraordinary in its eyes, just a vacant and silly look.

But the pressure it emitted from within, the oppression it exerted on his body and flesh, was extremely real.

"What kind of bird is this?"

A look of wariness flashed in Chen Chuhao's eyes, his mind quickly working.

"The aura of immortality?"

He was also curious. This dumb-looking bird seemed to be saying that there was an aura of immortality on his body.

"That's right."

The dumb bird flapped its skinny and featherless wings, resembling a plucked rooster.

It circled around Chen Chuhao, again and again.

"There is a fluctuation on your body that I am very familiar with, but the aura of immortality is not within your body."

It flapped its wings and came to Chen Chuhao's chest, staring at the storage ring he was wearing, pointing at it.

"Is it in here?"

"Here?" Chen Chuhao's heart skipped a beat.

He thought of the precious treasure his father gave him when he was twelve.

It was said to be extremely valuable and could not be opened casually. It could only be opened when the time was right.

"Could it be that the aura of immortality that this bird is talking about is inside here?"

He was extremely shocked in his heart. Although he was only at the Foundation Building stage, his knowledge and understanding were extremely broad.

The Chen Clan's first generation, as well as some of the later generations with the surname Chen, had to read the book called "Immortals, Mortals, and the Heavenly Realms".

Inside, countless small stories were recorded, and it was also the "story" book that Chen Chuhao loved the most when he was a child.

There were also records about immortals in it.

"However, it seems that you can't open it."

"Goo goo goo."

The dumb bird flapped its wings.

Chen Chuhao tilted his head slightly, feeling the storage ring in his palm.

But he couldn't sense anything.

"Can I go with you too?"

"I've been in this dark place for a long, long time. During that time, many bad people came to pluck my feathers."

"I drove them away, and you have the familiar aura on you, so you definitely won't pluck my feathers."

The dumb bird landed on Chen Chuhao's shoulder, staring at him with wide bird eyes.

Chen Chuhao's face froze for a moment, followed by a hint of surprise.

The little thing in front of him had some extraordinary qualities, although its appearance was somewhat pitiful.

But it was not bad.

"Okay."

Chen Chuhao nodded, about to turn and leave.

"Where did this golden phoenix come from? Get away from my brother!"

A young voice rang out, and Chen Chuhao looked down.

A young boy was holding a stick engraved with unknown runes, pointing at the dumb bird.

For a moment, the dumb bird seemed a little stunned, with a flicker of ancient ripples in its eyes.

"Golden Phoenix, are you referring to me? It feels so familiar..."

"Xiaofan, it's okay. This bird said it wants to follow me, it's not dangerous!"

Chen Chuhao pointed at the dumb bird on his shoulder, showing a big toothy smile.

"Huh?"

Chen Chufan was a little dazed, finding it hard to believe.

He glanced strangely at Chen Chuhao and recalled a message in his mind.

Then he calmed down, thinking:

"The golden phoenix recognizes its master. My brother is not simple."

"This family is not simple either."

He added in his mind, accepting this reality.

After packing countless things, Chen Chuhao and Chen Chufan left the Cave Mansion, leaping onto the back of a seemingly fat rhinoceros, slowly heading north.

"Brother, I told you not to keep feeding this beast all the time. Look how fat it is now!"

On the back of the rhinoceros, Chen Chufan looked somewhat resentful, looking at the beast beneath his feet.

When he had memories of it as a child, it was strong and agile.

But as the food got better, the whole body of the beast grew larger.

"Isn't it still hungry? Since it's following me, I won't let it starve. What's wrong with feeding it a little..."

"What else can we do?" Chen Chufan covered his face, not wanting to look at his brother.

"When the time comes, we can fatten it up a bit more and then kill it for meat."

After saying this, the rhinoceros stumbled, feeling a chill down its spine.

Chen Chuhao laughed and slapped the back of the rhinoceros hard with his big hand.

"Why are you still not moving? If you're slower than before, I'll kill you and eat you."

With Chen Chuhao's words, the rhinoceros suddenly felt as if the Grim Reaper was about to descend.

His master was someone who kept his word.

Immediately, the fat buttocks began to sway, almost dropping its belly to the ground.

It ran quickly, afraid that even a half-second pause would result in being killed and eaten.

"Hahaha, Haoge, look how scared it is!"

On the back of the rhinoceros, Chen Chufan laughed so hard that he couldn't close his mouth.

Chen Chuhao waved his hand with a smile, quietly gazing ahead.

Suddenly, he felt the earth shaking.

In the distance, a great battle erupted, shaking the entire mountain.

"What's happening?!"

Chen Chuhao's face showed a look of astonishment as he looked towards the energy fluctuations rising into the sky in the distance.

"There are powerful beings fighting. It's probably at least Soul Formation level."

Chen Chufan said in a deep voice, displaying a mature posture at such a young age, commenting on the scene.

After a while, the earth shook again.

In the distance, it seemed that something was rushing over.

The trees swayed gently, and suddenly...

In the distance, a forest was flattened one after another.

Dust filled the air.

Under their feet, the rhinoceros gradually became restless and frightened.

It began to growl softly.

"Roar!"

"Roar your head!"

Just as it finished roaring, Chen Chuhao struck it on the head.

However, his expression also showed some nervousness.

As someone who had traveled and experienced many things, he had seen scenes like this many times.
