Longevity Clan Starts with the Patriarch's Marriage

Theoretically, a peak with such beautiful scenery should be brimming with

spiritual energy, but Oddly enough, this mountain is devoid of it, suggesting there is a hidden story behind it.

He had looked through relevant intelligence reports, many cultivators had explored this place, and even that Great Grandmaster from the Myriad Phenomena Realm had paid a visit, finding no reasons for the lack; they all came to the conclusion that it was natural.

Before relocating, Han Li had quietly flown to Yuanzhou to have a look, inspecting each manor, but somehow he was led by an indistinct guide to Yonchang Manor.

As he hovered above Jingqing Mountain, Han Li distinctly felt the

Body-Cultivating Furnace stiir for a moment as if it had sensed something.

He took out the Body-Cultivating Furnace and activated it, yet the sensation disappeared.

Han Li suspected the scarcity of spiritual energy in this mountain was related to the Body-Cultivating Furnace. There might be an actual Body-Cultivating Furnace hidden here, or the one he held was the genuine one and what lay beneath could be the Soul-Cultivating Furnace, or even the Life-Prolonging Furnace, because otherwise, there would be no reaction.

But even after flying several circles around the mountain with the Body-Cultivating Furnace and continuously probing with his spiritual sense, he found nothing.

The spiritual energy in Yonchang Manor couldn’t possibly be so much thinner than the others without reason; there certainly had to be a cause, and it might originate from Jingqing Mountain, the place with the sparsest spiritual energy in Yonchang Manor.

At that moment, Han Li decided to relocate his home to Yonchang Manor and settle down at Jingqing Mountain.

The name Yonchang Manor sounded auspicious, which Han Li found very fitting for the Han Mansion to take root; although the name Jingqing Mountain didn’t sound impressive, the place wasn’t bad—good scenery, less trouble, and a potential treasure could be hiding.

After some thought, Han Li reached out and took a sizable, hard stone from Jingqing Mountain, suspending it mid-air, which caught the attention of his beloved wives and concubines, all of whom looked over, eager to know what their husband was doing.

With a flick of his fingers, streams of sword energy bombarded the stone, chipping away pieces until finally a giant stone tablet appeared, standing five fathoms high, about a fathom long, and three feet wide.

He stretched out his right hand, with middle and index fingers together like a sword, he wrote through the air. The characters for “Chengsheng Mountain” surfaced on the front face.

Then the stone tablet flipped, and Han Li continued to inscribe, the characters “Han Mansion” appeared on the back.

After that, he lightly pressed with his hand, and the massive tablet immediately plummeted down, thudding, to stand at the foot of the mountain, as Han Li’s voice followed.

“From this day on, Jingqing Mountain shall be renamed Chengsheng Mountain, the sacred grounds of my Han Mansion.”

The voice resonated grandly, spreading across hundreds of miles.

All members of the Han Mansion heard it, as did the cultivators lurking around the perimeter, and every mortal within this area.

People of the Han Mansion showed smiles, leaping for joy; cultivators from other forces were shocked, admiring the Han Family’s boldness, just arrived and already renaming a mountain, making the announcement to all corners—an announcement to all forces in Yonchang Manor, the Han Mansion has arrived.

As for the mortals in the secular world, they were somewhat bewildered—why had the well-regarded Jingqing Mountain been renamed and taken over by cultivators? Could they still visit the picturesque scenes and carve into the cliffside steles in the future?

Some astute mortals decided to take their chances with Chengsheng Mountain and see if perhaps the immortals atop it would accept them as disciples and impart them with immortal laws.

To women like Li Mingmeng and Qiu Yueyao, it appeared that Han Li had simply carved a monumental tablet at the mountain gate, but Lu Tianxiang saw more to it.

As a former Grandmaster of the Myriad Phenomena Realm, even though her powers were sealed, her insight remained intact.

“You’re really willing to go that far, huh? Not afraid of attracting trouble?” Lu Tianxiang scoffed.

“What is it, Sister Tianxiang? What did husband do?”

Upon hearing this, Lin Yiwu and Zhang Yuyan, among other lovely concubines, asked curiously, wondering if their husband had done something to the stone tablet.

“Nothing much, just placed a few small things inside.”

“You can tell your children,” Han Li smiled, “those who are interested should study the tablet more closely.” He did not elaborate further.

Lin Yiyin, Qiu Yueyao, and other beautiful concubines nodded, deciding to share this news with their children once back home; the husband had put effort into this deed, which must hold significance.

And indeed, it held great significance; Han Li had hidden quite a few treasures within it.

The three characters “Chengsheng Mountain” were inscribed with the full comprehension of the Seal Heaven Sword Art, while the two characters “Han

Mansion” were done with the complete insights into the Five Elements Grand Handprint.

The final pat was imbued with the understandings of various martial arts like

Xuantian Punch, God Slaying Sword Technique, Shenhuang Imprisoning Finger, Dragon Suppressing Palm, and even a trace of the ultimate essence of martial arts.

Now all these martial insights and the true essence of martial arts have been internalized, deeply hidden within the stone tablet. Given time, this tablet could perhaps become an invaluable treasure.

The descendants of the Han Family, as well as those guards, maids, and others, if they were to study and observe the stone tablet more, might gain some enlightenment from it, which would be of immense benefit to them.

Those with sufficient talent can see more when they observe the stone tablet, while those with lesser talent, as long as they have patience and perseverance, can also gain insights if they dedicate enough time.

All of this would depend on one’s individual fate, but in any case, Han Li had left the opportunity there.

This was especially designed as a benefit for the descendants of the Han Family, as well as other members of the Han Family. Those with good talent or background among Han Li’s descendants would definitely get more cultivation resources, while others would naturally have fewer. However, if they could gain some understanding from the stone tablet, rising to prominence was still a hopeful prospect.

This was also a contingency plan left by Han Li, as the martial techniques sealed within could be unleashed when necessary, slaying incoming enemies.

The main material of the stone tablet was that trace of his all-encompassing true martial essence, with hard stone merely serving as a secondary material, otherwise it wouldn’t be able to withstand those powerful martial techniques.

With the true martial essence as support, these martial techniques could still receive a boost, bursting out with the combat ability from the pinnacle of the Myriad Phenomena Realm or even the True Martial Realm.

The entire mountain gate stone tablet could be regarded as a huge stone talisman.

After absorbing a hundred years of talisman-making experience, Han Li’s talisman-making expertise reached the level of a Sixth Grade Mark Master, which gave him this idea.

A typical Sixth Grade Mark Master could only refine talismans and paper charms at the level of the God Refining Realm, but Han Li was different.

Possessing the combat ability of the True Martial Realm, he viewed things

trom a higher perspective. With his expertise in talisman making, it was easy for him to contain his own martial techniques and refine many extremely powerful talismans.

In just a few short days, the new Han Mansion was built, many times larger than Lingjun City, and far more magnificent and grand.

The entire Chengsheng Mountain now belonged to the Han Mansion. Han Li redeployed the Five Elements Life and Death Formation here, using the Body-Cultivating Furnace as the formation’s nexus.

It was partly to strengthen the formation’s might, and partly to see if it could once again trigger a response. Should there be any reaction, Han Li would be able to detect it immediately.

Chengsheng Mountain had a total of eighteen peaks, with the main peak named by Han Li himself: Chengdao Peak!

Just like Chengsheng Mountain, this, too, embodied his ambitions.

The Han Mansion was rooted in Yonchang Manor, where it would remain for a long period of time in the future. He had enough strength to protect the development of the Han Family.

Chengdao Peak was the residence for Han Li and his beautiful wife and concubines, serving as the core of the Han Mansion, with a large number of palace complexes constructed there.

Of the other seventeen lesser peaks, Han Li temporarily activated only three. Together with the foothills and mid-mountain areas, it was sufficient for the current Han Family’s use. The remaining peaks would be planned after the Han Family’s population increased significantly.

When the Han Mansion was completed, many forces from Yonchang Manor seemed to have made a pact, hurriedly coming to visit the Han Mansion one after another.

Those who came were either the head of the power or its upper echelons, and they all had one thing in common: a beautiful female cultivator accompanied them.

Mature, sexy, innocent, charming, pure, fragile…

All sorts of styles were represented among these beautiful female cultivators. On this day, the Han Mansion seemed like a venue for a beauty selection.

“Elder Chen, I have heard that your sect has some complaints about our ancestor Han, with the Lake Mountain Sect backing you up. What brings you to Chengsheng Mountain?”

“Zhang Family head, didn’t you say you wouldn’t come? Why have you brought even the most outstanding descendant of your Zhang Family?”

“Sect Master Qi, are you out of your mind? Your sect’s Fairy Hua has a Seventh

Grade aptitude, how can you bear to part with her? Send her back quickly!”

“Sect Master Lu…”

At the foot of the mountain, forces from all over Yonchang Manor gathered, and every Gangyuan Realm cultivator and Pihai Realm cultivator watching the others felt as if they had swallowed a fly.

When we asked you, everyone said they wouldn’t come, yet here you are, each arriving faster than the last!

PS: Today is the second chapter, with three more to follow. I continue to write and continue to ask for monthly tickets and rewards.

These two or three chapters serve as a bridge between the previous and the next, and might seem mundane. Don’t hurry, everyone; this is setting the stage for what’s coming next. Ancestor Han is about to start marrying and taking concubines again, then nurturing his offspring..
