Volume 1: Wudang Xiantian Chapter 1: Wudang Xiantian

  Liuzhou City is located at the foot of Bai Miao Mountain in Miaozhong, with a beautiful landscape.

  Most of the people living here are descendants of the Jiuli Miao, with a strong and brave folk custom. Young people have strong bodies, tiger backs and bear waists, and are experts at going up mountains to hunt, able to carry 100-200 jin heavy wild boars and still walk briskly.

  Unlike the customs of the Central Plains, the people here are unruly and believe in the Ten Earth Demon Lords. They worship demon gods at home and drive out spirits to play with ghosts. Therefore, Bai Man Mountain is also a gathering place for demonic Taoist wizards.

  Early in the morning, nearly a hundred young men of the Ye family were practicing martial arts on the lawn outside the inner courtyard of the Ye Manor. Their waists were as supple as bows, their fists as swift as arrows, and their arms as flexible as whips. As they landed their punches and kicks, they shouted loudly, their energy as vibrant as a rainbow.

  Several young men couldn't help but glance at the other end of the martial arts arena, their eyes revealing a mixture of admiration and jealousy.

  At the other end of the martial arts arena, a blue-clad youth stood quietly on the lawn, his footsteps calm and steady, his eyes slightly closed, slowly inhaling and exhaling.

  If there were a master of exquisite martial arts here, he would surely be shocked, for this young man's aura is extremely long and vast, almost to the point where ordinary people can't imagine it.

  His five internal organs had cultivated to the realm of being as hard as steel, like a huge blower, the airflow ejected between breaths actually blew the strong grass in front of him all bent, even if it was an inner family master who had been practicing martial arts for decades, he might not be able to do this!

  The young man's name was Ye Xu, style name Shao Bao, only fourteen years old, with a slightly immature and delicate face, he was the collateral bloodline of the Ye family in Liu Zhou, seventh among his peers.

  The Ye family is a well-known witchcraft family in Liuzhou City, and the master of the mansion, Ye Sidao, is the most famous demonic Daoist in Miaojiang. Ye Sidao cultivates the "Mangku Zhuoha Great Power Divine Ability", his witchcraft is divine, he is the strongest witch in Liuzhou, with a vast family business.

  The Ye Fu estate covers over a thousand acres, magnificent and luxurious. Inside, there are numerous courtyards and gardens, with thousands of slaves and servants. Even those who have been slaves for many years often get lost inside.

  The Ye family was wealthy and influential, with everyone in the household, including the slaves, practicing martial arts. There were also many skilled fighters among the slaves, and some had even reached the Xiantian realm through their cultivation of the Way of Martial Arts.

  Ye Xue's parents died early, and at the age of seven he practiced the Tianming Body Refining Technique. In just half an hour, he cultivated true energy, and his cultivation progressed rapidly. Within two years, he had cultivated the Tianming Body Refining Technique to the fourth level, making tremendous progress that shocked everyone in the Ye Manor. He was recognized as a genius with great potential, and even the master of the manor, Ye Si Dao, looked at him with favor and focused on cultivating him.

  Up until now, Ye Xu has cultivated the Cang Ming Refining Body Technique to the ninth level, and is only one step away from reaching the boundary of Wudao Xiantian!

  Outside the martial arts arena, two middle-aged wizards stood there. The inner court attendant Ye Si Zhen nodded slowly and smiled: "Shaobao is indeed a natural talent, in just seven short years he has cultivated the Cang Ming Lian Ti Jue to the ninth level, and at the age of 14 he began to impact the tenth level, advancing into the pre-heavenly martial arts, with great potential like mine back then!"

  Another wizard, Ye Si Tian, who was also an imperial official, heard this and chuckled: "Old Eight, you're putting on too much makeup, who doesn't know that you only became a preeminent martial artist at the age of 26!"

  Ye Si's face turned red with rage and shame, she punched him hard: "Old nine, you beast, all you know is to expose my weaknesses!"

  Ye Sitian laughed and scolded, his eyes serious, saying: "If Shao Bao can achieve the First Heaven of Martial Arts before the end of the year, wouldn't that mean he will become the youngest wizard in the Ye Manor's 300-year history, even surpassing our ancestors?"

  To become a wizard, one must first cultivate the martial arts of Xiantian and nourish and strengthen the yuan Shen in their body. This is common knowledge throughout the entire witchcraft world.

  Ye Si Zhen nodded and said: "Our ancestor became a witch at the age of 15 and founded the Ye Manor. If Shao Bao becomes a witch by the end of the year, I'm afraid his future achievements will really surpass those of our ancestor... Hmm?"

  Ye Si Zhen suddenly exclaimed, her eyes fixed intently on Ye Xu, and said in a low voice: "Lao Jiu, I'm afraid it's not necessary to wait until the end of the year. This little guy is actually going to enter the Wu Dao Xian Tian now!"

  Ye Sitian's body shook, and he hastily looked over, only to see a circular airflow emerging from under Ye Xu's feet, slowly rotating around his legs. He felt unbelievable: "Condensing energy into a vortex, it's actually condensing energy into a vortex... He has actually cultivated the Tianming Body Refining Technique to the tenth level!"

  At this moment, other young masters of the Ye family stopped practicing martial arts and looked up at Ye Xu, their faces showing various complex expressions.

  Only under Ye Xuan's feet, that circular aura gathered and did not disperse, the rotation speed getting faster and faster, bigger and bigger, gradually expanding to his waist, abdomen, head, finally wrapping him entirely within, like a small tornado!

  Wherever the tornado went, the strong grass on the ground was uprooted and rolled into the tornado, and then crushed to pieces!

  Condense energy into a vortex!

  The tenth level of the Cang Ming Refining Body Technique, marking a new boundary in martial arts cultivation, condensing energy into a powerful aura, becoming a pre-heavenly master!

  Over a hundred descendants of the Ye family, some people can't even touch this threshold for their entire lives, but Ye Xu has already stepped over this threshold and entered a realm that they can only look up to!

  After a long time, the aura slowly dissipated, Ye Xu opened his eyes and revealed a hint of relief, thinking: "Hard work pays off for those who are diligent, I've finally cultivated the Primordial Chaos True Energy into an aura! Now, I'm only one step away from becoming a Wizard!"

  Ye Xuheng was very clear in his mind that among the many sons of the Ye family, only he had lost his parents at a young age and had no background or foundation. Although he carried the reputation of being a martial arts prodigy and gained the attention of the master of the manor, Ye Sida, all these were just fleeting clouds to him.

  Ye Fu is after all a family of witch doctors from Miaojiang, only by becoming a witch doctor can one truly gain the attention and focused cultivation of the family, and after becoming a witch doctor, their status and power increase greatly, with the power to kill or spare.

  Martial arts have a total of ten levels of boundaries. Cultivating to the pre-heavenly martial arts is already the pinnacle that ordinary people can achieve!

  But for Wu Shi, Wudao Xiantian is just the beginning. The realm of Wu Shi is much broader and cannot be mentioned in the same breath as Wudao Xiantian!

  Ye Feng walked out of the crowd, cupped his hands and smiled: "Seventh brother, congratulations to you! At 14 years old, you have achieved the First Heaven of Martial Arts, you are the first person in my Ye family's 300-year history!" His eyes were filled with admiration and jealousy. He was only two years older than Ye Xu, ranked sixth, had excellent qualifications, and had already cultivated the Cang Ming Refining Body Technique to the seventh level, which could be called rapid progress. Among the Ye family children, he belonged to the top-notch characters.

  However, compared with Ye Xu, his achievements seem insignificant.

  Ye Xue gave him a feeling like a huge mountain blocking his view, making it hard for him to breathe.

  Ye Feng worked hard and made great efforts to catch up, but what left him desperate was that the distance between him and Ye Xu not only didn't decrease, but instead grew bigger and bigger.

  It's not just him, I'm afraid all the Ye family children present have this feeling.

  "Sixth Brother is being awarded." Ye Xu took in his expression but didn't put it in his heart, smiling back at him.

  Other members of the Ye family also gathered around, congratulatory voices filled the air, pushing Ye Feng to one side.

  Ye Xuan returned the courtesy, knowing in his heart that the reason why these Ye family juniors were so respectful, even a bit fawning, was mainly because he had entered the martial path of Innate, and almost 100% would become a Wu Shi, from then on rising to prominence within the Ye family.

  "Alright, alright, all of you disperse and go back to practicing martial arts!"

  Ye Si Chen dispersed the crowd and smiled at Ye Xu: "Shao Bao, now that you have achieved martial arts Xiantian, let's go to Wu Bei Ge immediately. As long as you pass the test of Wu Bei Ge, you will be the youngest wizard in my Ye Fu for 300 years!"

  Ye Xu nodded in agreement and followed him towards the Wu Bei Pavilion.

  In the Ye family's Wu Bei Ge, there is a secret method to awaken the yuan Shen. Any Ye family children under the age of 30 who have reached the Xian Tian realm are eligible to enter the Wu Bei Ge. As long as they pass the test, awaken their yuan Shen, and obtain the Mo Dao inheritance, they can become a witch doctor.

  What is called the primordial spirit is actually the essence of the soul.

  From the moment of birth, anyone will be stained with the essence of all things, and the types of essences include flying birds and beasts, flowers, birds, insects, fish, and even the souls of demons and monsters, and the spirits of mountains, rivers, stars, and constellations.

  Newborn babies, their primordial spirits are weak. Only when they cultivate martial arts to the Pre-Heavenly realm can their primordial spirits reach the intensity of communicating with the heavens and obtain the Heavenly Dao inheritance. Therefore, everyone in the Ye family, including even the slaves, cultivates martial arts and polishes their martial skills.

  The strength of the yuan god represents the qualifications of a witch, and Ye Xuru is now a master of the pre-heavenly martial arts. His yuan god is strong enough that becoming a witch is almost a certainty.

  Outside the Wu Bei Pavilion, Ye Xuan looked up at this magnificent building with a complex expression: "To cultivate to the Xian Tian realm is already an unattainable peak for ordinary people, but for Wushi, it's not even considered the beginning. Although I have cultivated the Cang Ming Lian Ti Jue to the tenth level and condensed my energy into a shield, if I were to fight against a Wushi, even the lowest-level one, I wouldn't stand a chance!"

  No matter how high the martial arts cultivation is, it is still a mortal man, while the witch has used the yuan god to communicate with all the heavens, obtained the inheritance of the heavenly way, jumped out of the category of mortals, and possessed various inconceivable abilities.

  And now, he is finally going to become a wizard too, and his excitement can be imagined.

  "Don't just stand there, hurry up and go in!" Ye Si Zhen urged.

  Ye Xue slightly calmed himself and walked into the Wu Bei Pavilion.

  At this moment, he still didn't know that his condensation of aura into a halo and achieving the Primordial State would cause such a huge stir among the higher-ups in the Ye family!

  He had just stepped into the pavilion when four figures suddenly appeared in front of the Martial Pavilion, and unexpectedly, the master of the mansion, Ye Sichao, was among them!

  The other three were also the highest authorities in the Ye family, and the famous witches of Liu Zhou City, showing how much importance the Ye family attached to whether Ye Xuan could become a witch.

  Ye Si's status was far inferior to theirs, and he could only stand aside.

  A middle-aged man in a purple robe, Ye Siyan, said slowly: "Shaobao started practicing the Cangming Body Refining Technique at the age of seven. At the age of nine, he had already cultivated it to the fourth level and was praised as a genius who appears only once in a hundred years. I didn't expect that now he would surprise me even more, actually cultivating the Cangming Body Refining Technique to the tenth level at just fourteen years old!"

  Another grey-robed elder nodded and said, "My Ye family has been in power for three hundred years, and the number of people who have cultivated to the Xiantian realm is not small, but there is only one person who can reach the Xiantian realm of martial arts at the age of fourteen, and that is him! To call him a genius would be an understatement!"

  "Your Excellency, this is a rare talent that has fallen from the sky. It's truly a great fortune for our Ye family. I suggest we nurture Ye Xu with all our might!"

  ……

  Ye Si's face was stern, and he said in a deep voice: "Ye Xu is indeed a genius, this cannot be denied. However, whether to reuse him or not depends on whether he can become a Wu Shi. Everything will be decided after he comes out!"

  The master of the house spoke up, and the other three people hastily shut their mouths, standing silently in front of the Wu Bei Ge door.
