Family Cultivation: I Can Store My Ability To Understand

Demon Beasts Attacking the City

He heard the shrill and urgent sound of the alarm in his ear.

Chen Daoxuan unconsciously raised his head and said, “Senior, this is…”

“It’s the alarm for demon beasts attacking the Guang’an Prefecture!”

The black-robed old man, who had been sitting cross-legged, stood up and replied in a deep voice.

“Demon beasts attacking the city?”

Upon hearing this, Chen Daoxuan’s expression suddenly turned ugly.

It was obvious that his words had brought up some unpleasant memories deep in his heart.

Back then, Changping County of Shuanghu Island had been attacked by demon beasts. In this life, his parents had lost their lives to the demon beasts. If he had not been lucky enough to have been saved by his thirteenth uncle, Chen Xianhe, his soul would have long since returned to the netherworld.

Therefore, when Chen Daoxuan heard that the Guang’an Prefecture was being attacked by demon beasts, his first reaction was not that of fear, but rather deep-seated hatred.

Seeing Chen Daoxuan’s expression, the old man seemed to misunderstand that he was afraid. He comforted him, “Don’t worry. Guang’an Prefecture is attacked by demon beasts fairly often. You’ll be fine once you get used to it.”

When he heard this, Chen Daoxuan was rather surprised. “Senior, why is it this way? Isn’t Guang’an Prefecture the Zhou clan’s territory? Given the Zhou clan’s strength, why would they be attacked by demon beasts?”

Hearing this, the old man pointed at the water spirit pearl in Chen Daoxuan’s hand. “Young friend, have you ever heard of merfolk?”

Hearing this, Chen Daoxuan recalled the description of the merfolk that he had read in his clan’s ancient books.

“There are merfolk in the South Sea. They live in the deep sea, and their voices confuse people’s minds. They are good at nurturing spiritual shells and controlling sea beasts.”

However, he had always treated the records in the ancient books as legends. He had not expected that there really were merfolk in this world.

Chen Daoxuan replied, “I’ve seen it in the ancient books. However, what does this have to do with the demon beasts attacking Guang’an Prefecture? Could it be related to this water spirit pearl?”

Seeing the black-robed elder point at the water spirit pearl in his hand, Chen Daoxuan had a vague speculation in his heart.

“You’re right.”

The black-robed elder nodded. “It’s indeed because of this spirit pearl. Spirit Shell Island is the largest spirit shell farm of the Zhou clan of Guang’an Prefecture. However, in order to breed spirit shells, you have to capture female merfolks.”

“Every year, the Zhou clan’s fishing fleet will capture mermaids in the nearby waters. It seems that, this year, the Zhou clan has poked a hornet’s nest by going after another merfolk tribe.”

At this point, the black-robed elder’s tone faintly revealed a hint of schadenfreude.

Itinerant cultivators had always been hostile toward the large immortal cultivation clans. It was not that they were not used to it, but rather that the large cultivation clans hoarded much of the region’s cultivation resources, and there were long-standing conflicts between the two sides.

Were it not for the fact that the Qianyuan Sword sect had chosen to attack the Cloud Nation back then, and distracted everyone from these conflicts, the Myriad Sea of Stars might have been thrown into chaos by now.

Chen Daoxuan could not be bothered about his gloating. He immediately remembered that the Canglong was still docked at the port of Guang’an Prefecture.

Since these demon beasts were from the sea, would not their clan’s cargo ship be the first to suffer?

With this thought in mind, Chen Daoxuan took his leave and said, “Senior, this junior will take his leave first. This junior’s ship is still docked at the port! Thank you for helping me out just now.”

Hearing Chen Daoxuan mention ‘cargo ship’, the black-robed elder immediately slapped his thigh and said, “Oh no, this old man’s ship is also docked there!”

There was a reason for his anxiousness. The black-robed elder’s ship was of a much higher grade than the Chen clan of Shuanghu Island’s cargo ship.

It was a spirit ship that he had spent a lot of money to purchase from the Yang clan. It had cost him more than 800 spirit stones. How could he not be anxious?contemporary romance

Consumed by his anxiousness, the black-robed elder did not pay Chen Daoxuan any mind. He immediately put the stall’s goods into his storage bag and used his wind control spell to fly toward the outer city of Guang’an Prefecture.

He was not the only one; the other cultivators reacted to his words and all flew into the air toward the outer city of Guang’an Prefecture.

Due to the attack of the demon beasts, the anti-flying array of the immortal city of Guang’an Prefecture had been disabled.

At this moment, Chen Daoxuan witnessed the most spectacular scene he had ever seen in his life.

Hundreds of thousands of cultivators flew toward Guang’an Prefecture’s port one after another.

It was a scene that could be said to blot out the sky and cover the sun.

Chen Daoxuan did not have time to admire the scene. He followed behind the crowd closely and flew toward the port.

…

When Chen Daoxuan found the cargo ship, he discovered that his thirteenth uncle was already standing on the deck of the Canglong.

“Thirteenth uncle!”

Chen Daoxuan descended and cupped his hands toward Chen Xianhe.

“You’re here.”

Seeing his nephew, Chen Xianhe nodded with a smile. Then, he looked at the black mass of demon beasts on the sea with a serious expression. He said worriedly, “It seems that the merfolk tribe that the Zhou clan provoked this time is not small.”

Chen Daoxuan looked over at the sea, but he was not too worried.

After gaining an understanding of the situation in Guang’an Prefecture over the past few days, he knew how terrifying the Zhou clan was.

Although there were a lot of demon beasts in front of him, if one observed carefully, they would find that they were all low-level demon beasts that did not even warrant a grade.

Not to mention the Zhou clan of Guang’an Prefecture, even the itinerant cultivators here could easily kill them if they worked together.

After all, although there were many demon beasts, there were far more itinerant cultivators.

Moreover, the average strength of each itinerant cultivator far exceeded this group of demon beasts.

Chen Xianhe looked at Chen Daoxuan worriedly, before saying, “Seeing as it’s such a huge group of demon beasts, the Zhou clan cultivators will definitely not be able to completely block them. When the time comes, if there are any demon beasts that slip through the net, remember not to charge too far ahead. You only need to protect the clan’s cargo ship.”

He was not afraid that the demon beasts would hurt Chen Daoxuan. After all, most of these demon beasts were low-level demon beasts. Chen Daoxuan’s strength was more than enough to deal with them.

He was only afraid that Chen Daoxuan would rush into the group of demon beasts because he was young and impetuous.

If that happened, once his true Qi was exhausted, even a low-level demon beast could pose a threat to his life.

As the dark mass of cultivators continued to arrive, the two sides actually confronted each other on the narrow and long coastline of Guang’an Prefecture.

Looking at the endless group of cultivators in front of them, Chen Xianhe and his nephew immediately felt at ease.

As their cargo ship was berthed closer to the port, there was a large group of cargo ships closer to the sea. At this moment, these cargo ships had formed a natural barrier that protected their ship.

Although the cultivators standing in front of them were cursing in their hearts, in order to protect their own cargo ships, they could only grit their teeth and swallow their bitterness.

Of course, the ones at the forefront were the Zhou clan cultivators.

After all, Guang’an Prefecture was their territory, and protecting its peace and livelihood was their duty.

Not to mention that this disaster was also caused by their Zhou clan in the first place.

In a relaxed mood, Chen Xianhe could not help but speak teasingly, “It seems like the members of the Yang clan are going to laugh their heads off this time.”

The Yang clan that he mentioned was the largest foundation establishment cultivation clan in the surrounding 100,000-mile sea region. In terms of status, they were only ranked below the Zhou clan of Guang’an Prefecture.

Seeing Chen Daoxuan’s doubtful expression, Chen Xianhe explained, “The Yang clan is the largest merchant of cargo ships in the nearby sea region. Our clan’s Canglong was also purchased from the Yang clan’s shipping company.”

“I’m afraid that many of our fellow Daoists’ cargo ships will be destroyed in this demon beast attack. How can the Yang clan not laugh in this scenario?”

Just as he finished his sentence, a piercing screech tore through the sky.

“Ao!!!”

Hearing this screech, Chen Daoxuan felt his heart thump, and then he felt nauseous.

Chen Daoxuan hurriedly circulated true Qi through his dantian to suppress the nauseous feeling.

After that, he looked at Chen Xianhe and realized that thirteenth uncle was as pale as he was.

“This is… a high-level merman!”

Chen Xianhe’s expression sank. “What kind of trouble did the Zhou clan get into this time…”
