Clan Leader: My strength equals to that of the entire clan

Chapter 32: Chapter 32: Appearance of the Monster_l

After going through the Cultivation Technique, Ye Fan fell into silence.

The so-called Innate Realm was the process of absorbing spiritual energy from the air, refining the body, and transforming it into what was called an Innate Body.

At that moment, Ye Fan finally understood why cultivators looked down on martial artists.

These martial artists were nothing but people without Spiritual Roots who were incapable of storing spiritual energy in their bodies.

So they had to settle for the next best thing, enhancing their bodies using spiritual energy.

Pathetic and lamentable!

Genius is 99% perspiration and 1% inspiration.

However, without that 1% of talent, you are nothing.

“Congratulations to the host for completing Ye Family Armory Ill: A Plethora of Books (Completed). You may claim the reward.”

“Congratulate me, the host, for obtaining the reward: Formation First Grade.”

In Ye Fan’s mind, multiple formations appeared instantly – the Rock Formation for defense, the Covert Formation for concealment, and the Hundred Swords Array for attack.

Each formation was extremely powerful.

Even the strongest martial artists in the Innate Realm are estimated to be hopeless against these formations.

Even more so, Ye Fan even saw a formation that could replace Spiritual Fire the Spirit Fire Formation.

Regrettably, Ye Fan couldn’t set up any of these formations.

Because the materials required to set up these formations were not available in the mortal world at all.

Even the simplest Spirit Fire Formation required a Spirit Stone as the array eye.

A Spirit Stone, where could Ye Fan possibly find one!

This Dao of Formations skill was currently nothing more than a chicken rib for

Ye Fan.

Unable to obtain Spiritual Root talent from the family armory, he could only wait for the reward from Family Powerhouse Ill to see if he could get it.

If that was not the case, he could only rely on the family population.

However, to complete the family population task, it would take at least ten years.

Ye Fan couldn’t wait that long.

The best solution was the emergence of an Innate Realm powerhouse within the family.

Three days later, Ye Fan, with his Innate Cultivation Technique, successfully refined the Innate Body and broke through to the Innate Realm.

The Innate Realm, the ultimate realm of martial arts.

Raising his hand, Ye Fan gathered a giant pair of hands from the immense Innate True Yuan and grabbed the artificial mountain.

Boom, the artificial mountain shattered.

The Innate Realm was at least ten times more powerful than the Peak of the Postnatal Realm.

Most importantly, Ye Fan felt as if his lifespan had increased.

If only the system could show lifespan!

“The system interface has been updated, please check for yourself.”

Missions: Family Rise Il, Path of Power Il, Family Territory Il, Family

Population I, Family Armory Ill

The lifespan shown by the system was the time Ye Fan had left to live.

Ye Fan was already fifty-two years old, so if nothing unexpected happened, Ye Fan could live until he was 124 years old.

If something unexpected did occur, the system would ensure Ye Fan could live that long, but it could not guarantee that Ye Fan would “survive” that long.

Seventy-two years, Ye Fan was instantly relieved.

With this much time, he should be able to cultivate, right?

However, just when Ye Fan was enjoying his happiness, bad news came. Ye Jintian couldn’t breakthrough and had encountered another bottleneck again.

Just like last time when he was trying to breakthrough from the Body Forging Stage to the Postnatal Realm, either his aptitude had to increase or he had to rely on Elixirs.

However, although there were Elixirs that could help one break through from

Postnatal to Innate realm, only a real Alchemist could refine them

Without breaking through to the Innate realm, Ye Fan could not become a Cultivator.

Without becoming a Cultivator, he could not refine the Elixirs that would allow Ye Jintian to break through to the Innate Realm, and therefore could still not be a Cultivator.

The Ye Family was trapped in a deadlock.

Breakthrough, how to breakthrough?

Ye Fan was suddenly a bit confused. Despite checking the system tasks several times, there were still no solutions in sight, at least for the moment.

No, he couldn’t just stand idly by.

“Jin Tian, start gathering news related to Cultivators in full force. We can’t just sit by and wait for death.”

“Xiao Xiao, you will be in charge of instructing their cultivation from now on.”

Ye Fan planned to take active measures. There was still a way as long as he could find a Spirit Stone; all was not lost.

Using the newly acquired Formation Skills, he could set up a Spirit Fire Formation.

As long as he had Spiritual Fire, he could refine the Elixirs to allow Ye Jintian to break through.

The entire Ye family began to take action.

Time passed day by day, a month, half a year, a year.

During this year, Ye Fan’s cultivation level did not improve at all; it was completely stagnant.

Ye Jintian also didn’t cultivate, but instead was constantly on the move collecting information about Cultivators.

Ye Fan understood this, so he patiently waited for news.

“Father, there’s news.”

Ye Jintian returned to the Ye family, dusty from his journey, and brought an exciting piece of news to Ye Fan.

It was not related to Cultivators, but to creatures like monsters written about in fantasy novels.

Monsters?

According to Ye Jintian, an odd creature had appeared near the deposit of red iron ore that Ye Fan had sold before.

It possessed not only a formidable physical body but it could also spout fire.

Even the Postnatal Realm martial artists who were invited by the big families of Changhe Town were no match for it.

In Wanlu County, the strongest were only in the Postnatal Realm.

To invite an Innate realm martial artist, one would have to go to Guanghe Prefecture.

However, getting an Innate realm martial artist wasn’t that easy.

In Wanlu County, at present, Ye Fan was the only martial artist in the Innate Realm.

Monsters!

Ye Fan hesitated for a moment, but soon made up his mind.

This monster must be killed!

If he can’t kill it, he will run away!

If a Postnatal realm martial artist could escape from this so-called monster, there shouldn’t be too much danger.

“Let’s go!”

When Ye Fan arrived at East Mountain, where the red iron ore was located, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

Since Ye Fan had broken through to the Innate Realm, he had been able to sense the spiritual energy in the air.

The spiritual energy in East Mountain was very rich, several times richer than that in Wanlu County.

The last time Ye Fan came to East Mountain, he was just a martial artist at the peak of Body Forging and could not sense spiritual energy. It looks like he missed a great opportunity last time.

But it’s not too late to discover it now!

Roar

Just as Ye Fan and the others entered the halfway point of East Mountain, they heard a beast’s roar.

Then, a creature that looked like a dog but was larger than a tiger jumped out from the forest.

The powerful aura emanating from the Black Dog Monster aimed at Ye Fan and his companions.

“Very strong!”

Ye Fan abandoned his contempt, this creature could indeed be a monster.

This East Mountain indeed held a great secret.

“Kill!

Ye Fan sprang into action, clutching his self-made long knife, and fiercely chopped at the Black Dog Monster.

The Innate True Yuan transformed into a knife beam, incredibly ferocious!
