"Chu Feng, letting you enter this Ancestral Martial Cultivation World was never simply about having you lead our Chu Heavenly Clan back into the Main Domain."
"If that were all there was to it, entering the Ancestral Martial Cultivation World would hold no real meaning — because you will leave sooner or later. Even if you lead the Chu Heavenly Clan into the Main Domain while you are there, the moment you depart, our clan's people will be driven out all the same." The Chu Heavenly Clan Chief spoke.
"Senior, then why exactly did you send me in?" Chu Feng asked.
"Chu Feng, the Ancestral Martial Cultivation World holds abundant cultivation resources, but the finest among them all reside within the Main Domain."
"However, some of these cultivation resources are hidden — they must be unearthed."
"Back when your grandfather and I were young and occupied the Main Domain, we discovered a concealed vein of cultivation resources."
"Although the resources contained within could not be called truly extraordinary, they would have been of great help to both the me of that era and the you of today."
"The trouble was that those resources lay buried far too deep. We could only use a formation to nurture them, and that process would take a very long time. Still, we figured that even if we could not make use of them ourselves, it would be a blessing for future generations."
"When your father and the others entered the Ancestral Martial Cultivation World, I had mentioned this matter to him as well. But your father said that when they went in, the resources had still not finished maturing."
"However, according to your father, the cultivation resources should have finished maturing by now and are ready to be enjoyed."
"That is why I want you to go, because only you can successfully obtain those cultivation resources." The Chu Heavenly Clan's Clan Master said.
"In that case, am I about to enjoy the cultivation resources that my grandfather and senior left behind for us?" At this moment, a look of excitement surfaced on Chu Feng's face.
Although those cultivation resources were originally within the Ancestral Martial Cultivation World, they had been discovered by his grandfather. Without the formation that his grandfather had set up, those cultivation resources could never have been excavated.
Therefore, in Chu Feng's eyes, those resources were left behind by his grandfather for him. It was precisely because of this that he felt such intense excitement and anticipation.
"You could say that as well." The Chu Heavenly Clan's Clan Master said with a faint smile. As he spoke, he extended his finger and pointed it toward Chu Feng's forehead.
The moment the Chu Heavenly Clan's Clan Master's finger touched Chu Feng's forehead, a faint radiance immediately flowed from his finger into Chu Feng's mind.
At this moment, Chu Feng's mind received not only a map, but also a formation.
The map indicated the location where the cultivation resources were hidden, and the formation was the mechanism needed to find those cultivation resources.
Both were indispensable.
Because, in order to prevent those cultivation resources from falling into the hands of others, his grandfather had expended considerable effort back then.
Therefore, if one did not know about this map and this formation, it would be extremely difficult to find the things his grandfather had hidden.
"Young friend, who else will be accompanying you on this trip?" Chu Feng asked.
"How did you know that someone else would be going with you?" The Clan Master of the Chu Heavenly Clan asked with a smile.
"You have four cultivation keys in your hand, and I only need one. You surely wouldn't intend to waste four of them, would you?" Chu Feng asked.
"Indeed. Besides you, this time I would also like four people to accompany you. Consider it a form of training for them," said the Clan Master of the Chu Heavenly Clan.
"Might I ask which four you mean?" Chu Feng asked.
"Chu Qing, Chu Haoyan, Chu Huanyu, Chu Shuangshuang."
"You are already quite familiar with Chu Qing, Haoyan, and Huanyu."
"As for Shuangshuang, she is a little older than you all. This year she is nearly three hundred years old, but that age is still considered very young among martial cultivators."
"The clansmen currently cultivating within the Ancestral Martial Cultivation Realm may not be familiar with you all, but Shuangshuang knows them, so having Shuangshuang take you there will make it easier for you to interact with one another."
"Will these four be acceptable?" the Clan Master of the Chu Heavenly Clan asked.
"Chu Feng is merely a clansman. As long as you deem it acceptable, Senior, then it is acceptable," Chu Feng said.
"What magnanimity. You are just like your father — broad-minded and concerned for all under heaven."
"Actually, I am aware of the grudges between you, Huanyu, and Haoyan."
"But you are all clansmen of my Chu Heavenly Clan. You absolutely must not be at each other's throats."
"I know you understand this principle, but they do not yet. That is why I hope that through this trip into the Ancestral Martial Cultivation Realm, they will come to realize the importance of unity within our clan," the Clan Master of the Chu Heavenly Clan said.
"Senior, I understand the principle. But whether it is a fellow clansman or an outsider, if they cross my bottom line, I will absolutely show no mercy," Chu Feng said.
"This old man understands. If they do something excessive to you, then deal with them accordingly. I grant you that right," the Clan Master of the Chu Heavenly Clan said with a smile.
"Thank you for your trust, Senior." And Chu Feng smiled as well.
"My Lord, something bad has happened." But just then, from outside the hall, the urgent call of an elder suddenly rang out.
