“Thank you for your concern, Great Elder. My health is in good condition. My weak and blood-deficient state was merely a ruse to deceive Ji Fu ” Tang Luo replied respectfully with a bowed hand. He had always held a deep respect for the Great Elder who dedicated himself to nurturing descendants from non-main branches of the family.
Thanks to the Great Elder’s efforts, countless prodigal sons had been able to reform, and numerous ambitious children from non-main branches had been provided with opportunities to display their talents. In this continent where martial arts practitioners held suprstatus, the existence of such an institution as the sect school was truly extraordinary.
A martial arts practitioner could benefit from the resources of a cultivation field, while the resources of the sect school were available for academic scholars. As long as you longed to manifest your aspirations, the family would always provide a stage for you to perform. Tang Luo had always held the belief that the Tang Clan’s infrastructure was sound and robust.
When Bu Xiao of Martial Saint Mountain diagnosed him as having an Innate Hollow Body, it seemed as if he had been ignored by high-status individuals of the Tang Clan. However, only the Great Elder Tang Kuan visited him while he was unconscious, expressing his desire to his parents that he be admitted to the sect school and accepted as a personal disciple.

To reinforce his point further, Tang Luo added, “Elder Zhang has been channeling spiritual energy intoever since I left the Minor Spiritual Realm. He should have sensed the vigorous life force within me.”
Tang Kuan turned to look at Tang Siyuan, who confirmed with a nod, “Indeed, there has always been a strong life force within Luo’s body. It is truly something rare to see at the Mortal Realm.”
With the confirmation from the Great Elder, Tang Kuan finally let out a sigh of relief, “As long as you are fine, everything is fine.”
This concern wasn’t solely for Tang Luo being a potential future talent No matter who encountered the situation Tang Luo did, his reaction would have been similar.
He couldn’t bear to see the family’s children facing danger while their parents risked their lives for the family outside. Over time, who would be willing to serve the family? Obviously, no one would.
Upon the Great Elder’s confirmation that Tang Luo was unharmed, Tang Zu, the chief elder, also relaxed his furrowed brow. As for things like the treasure house of the Minor Spiritual Realm or the Legendary Skills of the Saints, he had always disdained such things. In his opinion, there was only one way for the Tang Clan to rise to power: by cultivating a King Realm practitioner, or at least a Martial Arts Grandmaster. Only then could they help the Tang Clan secure an influential position along the Lingjiang River and even in the west of Longzhou.
Even with numerous external artifacts, the Tang Clan couldn’t regain their dominance due to their foundation and the need for high-end martial force. Originally, the strength Tang Sen demonstrated had given him hope for the Tang Clan’s rise. But Tang Luo’s emergence made him believe the shadow of the Tang Clan’s first King Realm practitioner was near. Hence, when he heard that Tang Luo had forsaken his cultivation to enter the Minor Spiritual Realm, his anger towards clan leader Tang Zhi is imaginable.
Staking the future of the Tang Clan on external artifacts, Tang Zu felt that Tang Zhi had lost his senses completely. It was an incredibly foolish decision to make.
Therefore, when the news of Tang Luo’s depleted vital essence reached the sect school, for the first time, he questioned Tang Zhi directly. Had there been an irreversible loss in Tang Luo, Tang Zu would have called a clan meeting, rallied the Tang Clan elders, and put Tang Zhi on trial. But now that he saw Tang Luo unharmed, with the Great Elder confirming his vigorous life force, Tang Zu finally set his mind at ease.
Among the three, Tang Zhi was undoubtedly the happiest to see Tang Luo in good health.
Over the past month, the clan leader had endured tremendous pressure and feelings of injustice. God knows how determined he was to prevent Tang Luo from entering the Minor Spiritual Realm. But, as a ruler who judged based on results, he failed to keep Tang Luo from doing so. As a result, he had not defended himself over the past month until he saw Tang Luo standing before him in good health. The clan leader, who had been under massive pressure, finally exhaled, “If Luo is compromised, I wouldn’t have the face to continue as the clan leader.”
Faced with the deep concern by his elders, Tang Luo gave them all a deep bow, “I am deeply touched by all your love and care. The reason I pretended to be unconscious and asked the clan leader to chere for a discussion was concerning what I obtained in the Minor Spiritual Realm.”
Although each of the five people present held different positions, they were all highly astute. They naturally knew Tang Luo must have had a grander plan and calmly listened to him.
“During my journey in the Minor Spiritual Realm, I cultivated my Undying Battle Body to the fifth level and opened my first divine ability known as the Void Stomach.” Tang Luo said directly, “So I stored all the immortal herbs that the Han Family stored in their Underground Palace a thousand years ago in my stomach. I’ve managed to cover my tracks well, so Ji Fu would not be aware Now we need to plough a spiritual field of 100,000 acres as quickly as possible and sow the immortal herbs I’ve brought back. Sof them are precious immortal plants that cannot be priced. We should strengthen the Alchemy Pill and Medicine branch and make full use of these immortal herbs.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEven if Tang Luo gobbled down all the elixirs and immortal plants in the most primitive way, it was uncertain whether he would even be able to upgrade his Undying Battle Body to the second level. However, cultivating many immortal plants monopolized by sects and engaging in intensive research on the Dao of Alchemy Pill, the future achievements of the Tang Clan would be unpredictable.
Weighing the pros and cons – one second level Undying Battle Body practitioner against a whole clan of them in future – provided that Tang Luo was sane, he would definitely not choose to consall these immortal plants all by himself.
Upon hearing Tang Luo’s words, the clan leader, Tang Zhi, thought for a while and asked, “How long can these precious herbs last in your “Void Stomach”?” “After being nourished for a thousand years by the spirit spring, each herb is incredibly mature. Because the Void Stomach is a closed space, solely on account of their self-dissipating efficacy, they can last for about three years. Within three years, they must be planted in the spiritual field. Otherwise, if they lose too much medicinal properties, they will lose their spirit,” Tang Luo confirmed. The Void Stomach, isolated from the Great Thousand World, allowed the medicinal and spiritual plants to have a longer shelf life If they were in the Great Thousand World, their medicinal properties would have disappeared within a month at most.
Once he heard that the herbs could be stored for three years, Tang Zhi nodded and thought to himself, “Three years should be enough.”
The Tang Clan’s future actions would render no safe place in Xiling, let alone the entire Western Longzhou, to establish a spiritual field. Now that he learned Tang Luo could store those immortal herbs for three years, he felt heaven was blessing the Tang Clan.
“Since Luo has managed to handle all the traces in the Minor Spiritual Realm, let’s pretend that the spiritual herbs do not exist for now.” Tang Zhi decided to back up Tang Luo’s plan. “There will be a great change in Longzhou in the future. If our Tang Clan can suppress the Mi Clan and preserve our strength during this change, we’ll be able to dominate both shores of Lingjiang River. Then, we can establish spiritual fields and develop the Dao of Alchemy However, if our Tang Clan suffers great losses during the change, then Luo should absorb these spiritual herbs himself. In the future, the rise of our Tang Clan would all cdown to Luo!”
Upon hearing that there would be a great change, Tang Luo felt a jolt in his heart.. He had known since two years ago that Tang Zhi was planning something big, but it wasn’t until today that he realized, though vaguely that this plan was targeting the Mi Clan and even the whole western LongZhou!
