Chapter 53 Breakthrough (Seeking Collection, Seeking Recommendation, Seeking Comments)

  In the Flame Cave of Beast God Mountain, suddenly, the entire Beast God Mountain changed. The original misty Beast God Mountain saw its mist surging into the Flame Cave entrance, as if there was a powerful blower in the Flame Cave.

  "What's going on?" The linguists who were in deep meditation were suddenly awakened, and those who were in seclusion also emerged from their seclusion.

  Swish swish! One after another, figures flashed towards the Flame Cave.

  "Halt!" Karyn waved her hand directly at the flame cave entrance, sealing off the sound of the flames from the outside world, and let out a loud shout.

  "Little brother, what's going on?" Yu Zong, as the ancestor of the Yu family and the one with the deepest cultivation, was naturally the first to arrive at the Flame Cave.

  "Senior, my brother is currently in a critical moment of his closed-door training and cannot be disturbed."

  "I understand." Upon hearing Karyn's words, Zong immediately understood what he should do and waved his hand at the people who came later: "Everyone retreat, without my order, no one is allowed to appear here, violators will be expelled from the mountain gate directly.

  "Yes, ancestors." Yu Ling and others responded in unison.

  "Whoosh! Whoosh!" The high-ranking members of the Yu family came and went quickly, and after Yu Zong's words fell, only Karyn and Yu Zong were left on the mountain top.

  "Little brother, where is Master Xuan? What's going on?"

  "Grandpa went out to take care of something."

  "Oh! Young brother, since Master Xuan is not here, if you don't mind, I'll stay and protect Master Xuan's senior disciple. How about that?" Yu Zong wasn't a fool, he had always wanted to rely on the mighty Mountain Xuan Tian Ba, and now a great opportunity was right in front of him. Even if it was just for show, at least he should make a good impression in front of the big tree.

  Kaiyan heard Yu Zong's words and slightly paused, thinking for a moment before nodding his head and saying: "Alright then!"

  "Ah." Yu Zong's heart was filled with joy at this moment, and it was hard to express. To be honest, when he said that sentence just now, it was also a slip of the tongue. After all, if something happened here, his family would have to do their best to protect him. If something happened to his disciple in his own forbidden land, then his family would also be implicated. But at this moment, the other party agreed to let him stay, which didn't mean that they had accepted his good intentions. How could he not be happy?

  Thus, Kayan and Yu Zong sat quietly in meditation at the entrance of Huoyan Cave, after all, the spiritual energy in front of the cave was too abundant at this moment, if they didn't practice now, it would be a waste.

  One day passed, two days passed, and the spiritual energy in front of the Flame Cave entrance did not weaken at all, but instead seemed to increase a lot. This phenomenon lasted for about ten days before it gradually weakened.

  At this moment, Zhang Huaming's body in the Flame Cave is emitting an increasingly powerful aura, and a faint cyan glow is appearing on his body surface. The mist around the platform in the entire Flame Cave is getting thicker, and after the cyan light on his body disappears, all the mist in the cave seems to have found its way out and rushes into his body.

  Bang! Zhang Huaming suddenly opened his eyes, and a flash of green light flickered in his gaze.

  Cough! Zhang Huaming had just stood up, and his skeletal body emitted a burst of explosive sounds. The bloodstains all over his body instantly turned into ashes and disappeared in the air.

  "The realm of the God of War actually requires grasping spatial laws, it's actually like this." Zhang Huaming muttered to himself, and the next moment he stretched out his palm towards the void and lightly drew a line. The next moment, where his palm passed through, the void actually appeared with threads of spatial cracks.

  "Huh? Why isn't Master here?" Zhang Huaming furrowed his brow, because after he reached the realm of Martial God, he had given birth to a divine sense. Just now, his divine sense discovered that there were only two people left above the entrance of the Flame Cave - Karyn and the old ancestor of the Yu family. But his master was not there! According to his understanding of his master, it was impossible for him not to help protect himself unless something urgent came up.

  "Never mind, let's talk about it later!" Zhang Huaming smiled slightly and said. The next moment, his body suddenly rose into the air and instantly exited the fire cave.

  "Brother!"

  "Congratulations, little brother, your cultivation has reached a higher level."

  "Thank you, senior, for your kindness in protecting the law." Zhang Huaming bowed his head and thanked him.

  "It's all right, since Master Xuan has arranged for you to cultivate here, it is also my duty to fulfill. Seeing Zhang Huaming's actions, Yu Zong felt a great sense of comfort in his heart. Indeed, he was a disciple taught by a high-ranking master, and his style of doing things was indeed different from others, completely without the arrogance of those young masters."

  "Kayan, where is Master?"

  "Brother, Grandfather said he has something to attend to and went out for a bit. He asked me to tell you that if you've gone out, go back to the old place to consolidate the boundary. Everything will be arranged after he gets back."

  "En." Zhang Huaming nodded and then bowed his hands to Yu Zong: "Thank you, Senior Yu, for taking care of me all these days. I'll take my leave now."

  "Why are you in such a hurry, young brother? Why don't you rest here for a few days instead? I can provide you with a quiet room to consolidate your cultivation."

  "No need to trouble you, senior. My teacher has already instructed me, so I'll just follow his arrangements."

  Yu Zong saw that Zhang Huaming was determined to leave, and a hint of a smile appeared on his face: "Since it's been arranged by Master Xuan, I won't keep you here. If you have time next time, little brother, feel free to come to Beast God Mountain as a guest, the Yu family's door will always be open for you."

  "Thank you, senior."

  "Come on, let's go."

  "Good older brother."

  Whoosh! Zhang Huaming and Karyn swiftly rose into the air, rapidly flying towards the Death Forest. After a few breaths, their silhouettes vanished at the horizon.

  "This child will have boundless achievements in the future!" Zong Yu gazed at the black shadow that had disappeared from view and sighed with emotion.

  Whoosh! A figure appeared behind Yu Zong, and it was none other than the current head of the Yu family, Yu Ling.

  "Our ancestors."

  "What's wrong?"

  "Ancestors, have all those benefactors and predecessors passed away?" Yu Ling asked tentatively.

  "What's wrong?"

  "Ancestor, how should we handle the matter of Yan'er?" Yu Ling asked anxiously in his heart. As Yan's father, he didn't want to marry his daughter into the Tian family at first, after all, the Tian family's young master's scandalous affairs were known among several major forces on the Wulin continent. However, considering the future of the Yu family as a whole, he had no choice but to agree to this marriage. But he never expected that on the day the Tian family proposed the engagement, a sudden change occurred - Cheng Yaojin appeared out of nowhere and suddenly put an end to the engagement, offending the Tian family. Naturally, there would be many more things happening in the future, just like how some businesses within the Yu family's scope began to face suppression by the Tian family, undoubtedly an economic retaliation by the Tian family against the Yu family.

  Yu Zong heard Yu Ling's words and slightly furrowed his brow: "If there's something, tell me all at once, don't say half and leave half."

  "Yes, ancestors, now our family business within the Tianjia's sphere of influence has been suppressed, and some shops have even appeared to be intentionally sabotaged. How should my son handle this?"

  "Oppression? Interference?" Yu Zong's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and the next moment he sneered: "Since the Tian family doesn't welcome our Yu family business, then we don't need to do business within their sphere of influence. Pass down my order, let our Yu family withdraw all business from the Tian family and shift it to the Zheng, Xue, Liu, and Yan families' four territories."

  Yu Ling heard his old ancestor's words and looked puzzled, saying: "Ancestor, will the four families accept our business? I'm worried that they'll also suppress our business."

  "Hehe! Don't worry, Ling'er, as long as our family's business reaches their territory, I believe they will be more than happy." Yu Zong's tone was filled with determination.

  "The grandson doesn't understand."

  "Heh heh! Leng'er, did you know who proposed this marriage this time?" Yu Zong guessed that today was a great day for him, so he spoke more than usual.

  "Grandson doesn't know, grandson has always been puzzled, why did the old ancestor want to call that senior an benefactor?" Yu Ling saw that his old ancestor was in a good mood today and took the opportunity to ask out the doubts in his heart.

  "Haha! This matter, if I were to say it, would date back to two thousand years ago." Yu Zong smiled and continued with a nostalgic expression: "All the cultivators on the Martial Continent thought that the Martial God realm was the highest realm. Unfortunately, they didn't know that reaching the Martial God realm is only the beginning for a cultivator. Back then, after I reached the peak of the high-level Martial God realm, I suddenly had an epiphany one day and finally broke through the Martial God realm. But at that moment, I realized that breaking through the Martial God realm required accepting heavenly punishment. At that time, no one guided me, so I foolishly accepted the heavenly punishment. After three lightning strikes, I discovered how insignificant my cultivation was in the eyes of heaven. Originally, I thought I would dissipate into nothingness, but at that moment, perhaps it was because I wasn't destined to die, a figure appeared before me just as the lightning was about to strike. The person only made a single palm strike towards the sky and actually dispersed the heavenly punishment's calamity cloud, saving my life."

  "What? You scattered the Heavenly Punishment Cloud with just one palm?" Yu Ling's eyes were about to pop out of their sockets, his expression incredulous. Although he didn't understand the extent of the power of the Heavenly Punishment in his ancestor's words, as a mid-tier Martial God cultivator, he could roughly comprehend the strength of a high-tier Martial God. It was unimaginable that even someone at the peak of the high-tier Martial God realm couldn't withstand three strikes of the Heavenly Punishment Thunder, let alone scatter it with just one palm! What kind of cultivation was this?!

  "Right, Ling'er, now you know the greatness of this lifesaver?"

  "What did our ancestors mean?" Yu Ling's tone was tinged with a hint of inquiry, for he had not yet fully grasped the true thoughts in his ancestors' hearts.

  "You fool, this benefactor's power is so strong, have you forgotten the attitude of those aristocratic families towards that benefactor in our great hall a few days ago?"

  "A few days ago, in the grand hall." The words lingered in his mind for a moment, and he exclaimed in surprise: "Bajie, right, no mistake, it's Bajie."

  "That's right, the lifesaver from that day directly expressed his intention to be our family's kin in front of them. From now on, as long as our business enters the sphere of influence of these few big families, I can guarantee they won't suppress or make trouble for us, instead..."

  "On the contrary, they will indirectly protect our business." Yu Ling directly interjected, with an excited expression.

  "That's right, I believe you should know what to do next."

  "Understood, I'll get right on it."

  "Go!" Zong Yu waved his hand casually and said.

  "Grandson takes his leave." Yu Ling bowed and then flashed a excited expression as he ran down the mountain.
