《Rising To The Ancients》Chapter 4
Advertisement
I wake up and notice that both Tian'er and Yi'er are still sleeping so I sit up without disturbing them and take out a few crystals to cultivate because I want to reach at least Stage 5 of True Lord Realm before we reach the city, and it is quite hard now, even with red crystals.
I cultivate for 2 hours, getting near the peak of stage 4 before Tian'er and Yi'er wake up. They both notice that I am not next to them and start looking around and see me sitting off the bed and both happily jump over to me.
"Father we are going to a city today right?" Asked Yi'er
"Indeed. We will leave in the direction of the city in 3 hours, So you two should both eat and wash up before then." Said Tang Feng
"Okay, Father!" Said Tian'er and Yi'er
I take out some of the beast meat from last night and put it on the table for them to eat before I start cultivating again.
I finally manage to enter Stage 5 of True Lord Realm after another 2 hours of cultivating and by then both Tian'er and Yi'er are done eating and only need to take a bath. Though I do aswell.
"Come with me. We are going to go to the river to bathe and then we will leave." Said Tang Feng
"Okay father." Said Yi'er
"Coming!" Said Tian'er
I walk out the door and start heading over to the river and Tian'er and Yi'er both run after me and catch up to me. When we get to the river we enter it and start washing off any sweat and dirt we have on us before getting out and putting on new clothes. I suddenly think of something and ask them.
"Tian'er, Yi'er, Did you guys get any Martial Skills when you were born?" Said Tang Feng
"Oh! I did! I got a um.. Ah that's right! It is called Jade Body! It's a defensive skill. It seems that it is at the peak of High Mastery already!" Said Yi'er
"Oh! My skill is called Heavenly Claw! It says that it is a skill that lets me send out a giant claw to attack and enemy. It is also at the peak of High Mastery like sis!" Said Tian'er
Although I am happy that they have atleast one martial skill, Just the fact that they both have a martial skill that is at the peak of High Mastery is ridiculous. Sure my skills are all also at the peak of High Mastery, but that is because I trained them for the last month. Is it before I have my skills at peak of high mastery that they also do? Well whatever it is I can only say it helps.
"Good good! Those skills are super useful so make sure to train in them properly. Well then, it is time for us to start heading to the city, So come along now." Said Tang Feng
"Yes father!" Said Tian'er and Yi'er
We leave the house and start walking north, which is the direction the city is in. According to the information I have, The city is one of the major cities and has many 1 star sects in it and it also has a few academies in it. It seems to have at least 2 million citizens living in it, Which is alot compared to the other cities. I suddenly remember something I wanted to ask God, So I attempt to connect to him so I can ask.

'Hey God are you there? I have something I need to ask you.'
I wait for a bit before I feel that connection in my mind again and I once again hear God's voice.
'What is it?'
'It is like this. Why do I increase my cultivation so fast? I do not receive any bottlenecks and it is extremely easy for me to cultivate. I also cultivate very fast compared to normal. Can you tell me why?'
'Oh that is simple! you technically possess a Heavenly Bloodline, Which is very rare. It allows you to cultivate faster than normal and you only need cultivation resources and you can easily breakthrough. The only problem is that normal cultivation resources will start losing their effects after your cultivation reaches a certain level. I believe that with crystals, You should only be able to reach stage 8 or so with them. After that you will need to find better resources, Like the energy from dead cultivators remains. There are also many other resources you can use, but I can't tell you them yet. This also goes for your kids, So you can all increase your cultivation quite easily.'
'So that is what it was. Thanks for telling me, God.'
'No problem. Let me know if you got another problem. If I can help with it, I will. Until then.'
I felt the connection dissapear from my mind and start to think about what he said. Although it wasn't directly saying it, He basically said that their is energy in the remains of strong cultivators, I am going to guess above True Lord Realm, Since nothing is that easy, That me, Tian'er and Yi'er can refine and absorb and use as cultivation resources. Though this is merely a speculation, It is the best I have so far.
For the next 7 hours we keep walking through the forest heading north, while killing the beasts that we find along our path. We killed around 40 beasts or so, All around Mortal Lord and below, So pretty weak. I did get better at fighting though, So I guess it is fine if they are weak.
We decide to stop for the night since it is already quite late now and there is no point in walking through the dark. We climb up a large tree and I create a small space inside the trunk of the tree for us to sleep in for the night. This time instead of sleeping I have Tian'er and Yi'er cultivate using 10 red crystals each, Hoping to increase their cultivation by a lot.
After handing them the crystals and seeing them start to cultivate, I also take out a few crystals and start cultivating myself.
We cultivated for a total of 11 hours and it is currently morning. All of the crystals we were using for cultivation are gone, So we naturally stopped cultivating. When I checked my cultivation I was barely past 20% towards stage 6 of True Lord realm.
When I looked over at Tian'er and Yi'er I was so surprised my mouth opened for a bit before I closed it. The reason being that both of their cultivation actually rose from stage 1 True Spirit to stage 4 True Spirit. It would seem that their cultivation talent is quite a bit better than me.. Well who cares. The stronger they get the better, Because I know for sure there will be a lot of True Lords where we are going, and I don't need them to be so weak they can't even run from them if need be.

"Tian'er, Yi'er, Let's go. You can eat while you walk. We should reach the city in about half a day if we leave now." Said Tang Feng.
"Okay." Said Tian'er
"I'm ready father." Said Yi'er
"Then let's go." Said Tang Feng
We all leave the tree and jump down and continue our journey north. For the first 3 hours we did not encounter any beasts, So I figured it was because of the area we are in doesn't have many beasts, but an hour later I discovered it was because they actually seem scared of us. We managed to spot a few beasts, but the second they saw us, they did not even think before they ran without looking back. Honestly it leflt us quite speechless, but we decided to ignore it and continue.
Without any beasts attacking us we actually got out of the forest and saw the city in only 8 hours instead of the original 12 or 13 I had figured it would take. I am quite happy with that since that means that we have more time to look around the city to see if there is anything that is useful to us. Mainly Martial Skills.
Getting up to the city gate we see a big line so we step in the back of the line. After an hour or 2 of waiting we finally get to the gate to which the guard comes over and talks to us.
"In order to enter the city for the first time you need to pay 5 blue crystals per person and touch this ball to get something you can use as an identity in this city." Said the guard.
I take out 15 blue crystals from my storage ring and hand them to the guard, to which he has us each touch the ball and it glows. After it stops glowing he looks at it for a minute before he hands us something.
"This plate will be used as your identity in the city. If you lose it you will have to pay 20 blue crystals for a new one, So be careful." Says the guard.
What is on the plate is actually our name,age and affiliation. Affiliation is obviously a sect we are in, So it doesn't have anything. It also seems that the age of my current body is 18, Like my last life. Tian'er and Yi'er are both 10 like I figured.
Now that we have our identity plate, We enter the city and start to look around. After walking around for a bit we see a large store that sells Martial Skills and we enter it. Inside is thousands of martial skills, ranging from Core grade to a few High Grade. Naturally no Peak or Heavenly grade, Since those are pretty rare.
"Tian'er, Yi'er, let's find you two a few useful martial skills since we are here." Said Tang Feng
"Yes father." Said Tian'er and Yi'er.
We look through the martial skills and find a few that suit them pretty well. I also found 2 martial skills that I think will be useful.
We managed to find 3 skills for Tian'er and they are a defence skill called Steel Body. It is obviously the lesser version of my Iron Body, but is it quite good still. The second skill is Lightning Steps, the same as I have. The final skill we found for him is a sword skill called Cutting The Void. It is a high grade skill that would let someone cut the void in front of them to attack an enemy. The range and strength depends on how much one has trained in it, so it is quite good.
As ofr Yi'er we only managed to find 2 skills, but they are enough for now. The first one is a sword skill called Heavenly Slash. Is is similar to my Striking The Heaven skill but is weaker. It allows one to send out a sword wave towards the enemy. Strength and distance also depends on the amount it was trained. The other skill we found for her was a movement skill called Trancending The Sky. It allows one to walk through the sky while using a massive amount of Qi. It can let her walk a few steps in the air, which will help in fights.
As for the skills I found one was a sword skill called Slaughterer's Domain. It let's me increase my strength the more enemies I kill in a fight. So basically if there is a fight with a lot of enemies, the more I kill during that fight, the stronger I can be during it. The other skill I found was a movement skill called Flipping The Heavens. Like Yi'er's movement skill it let's me move through the sky, only mine let's me fly using Qi instead of taking a few steps in it.
We head to the shop keeper and pay 2 red crystals for the skills, Which I find quite cheap. After that we leave and I find a shop that sells something I wanted to get, Which was the basics of formations. I buy a few books about formations and I also buy a few formation techniques. I got a concealment formation, tracking formation and a slaughter formation technique. the concealment and slaughter one are simple ones, but the tracking formation lets me leave a mark on anybody I want, with the limit being 5. It will let me see and hear anything around the person with the mark, as long as I focus on it. It also let's me speak through the mark on their body, So I can use it to talk to other when I am not there. It is also invisible so nobody can find it unless they also have this skill, but it is a peak high grade skill, so I doubt there will be many people with it.
After walking around the city a bit more and buying something to eat we head to an Inn and buy a room. Once we enter the room I start reading all the formation books I bought and after a few hours I finish and I place a tracking mark on both Tian'er and Yi'er so that I can know where they are at any time. It also let's me send my oppression through the mark, So if they get in danger i can oppress the enemy so they can escape. After that I give them a few crystals and we all start cultivating for the night instead of sleeping.
