Immortality Begins with Breathing Exercises

The Dongtian World where the Martial Alliance is located is known as the Martial Realm.

This Dongtian World is not as large as the Cyan Dragon Realm; it is quite small, approximately only one-fifth the size of the entire Southern Barbarians region.

But if truly measured, it isn’t exactly small, only when compared to the Cyan Dragon Realm does it seem small.

Two figures quickly traversed the sky.

This time, Lin Zheyu and Bai Lin did not use a flying shuttle; they possessed strength comparable to the Foundation Establishment Peak, and even among the Foundation Establishment Peak, they were in the elite minority.

For such a short distance, using a flying shuttle-type Magical Artifact was unnecessary.

”The concentration of Spiritual Energy here is not comparable at all!”

Lin Zheyu felt the concentration of Spiritual Energy in the air and clicked his tongue.

”Naturally.”

”The Cyan Dragon Realm is one of the four realms of Great Wei; its Spiritual Energy concentration is certainly incomparable to that of the Martial Realm.”

”However, the Spiritual Energy concentration of the Martial Realm is considered to be at an upper-middle level among the many small Dongtian Worlds.”

Bai Lin said with some pride.

”That makes sense.”

”Are those powerful fierce beasts below domesticated or wild?”

Lin Zheyu pointed to two powerful fierce beasts fighting not far away and asked curiously.

In the Cyan Dragon Realm, he had asked Lei Yunshu this question, and Lei Yunshu’s answer was that most were wild, with a few domesticated.

In the entire Cyan Dragon Realm, the territories occupied by human cities are not large; mostly wild mountains, forests, and marshes with demon beasts wandering everywhere.

”Most are free-range. Sometimes we specifically catch beasts with potential from the Mortal Realm to supplement.”

Bai Lin explained.

Their speed was extremely fast, advancing more than thirty kilometers in the blink of an eye.

Suddenly, Lin Zheyu’s expression changed, as he looked in the direction ahead to the right.

He sensed that several kilometers away, there was a fluctuation indicative of a battle.

”People are fighting. Is there more than just the Martial Alliance here?”

Lin Zheyu asked.

The area of the Martial Realm is very small, and he had assumed that the only power here was the Martial Alliance.

”Certainly not.”

”Besides the Martial Alliance, there are also three ancient families known for their martial lineage: the Kong Family, the Ning Family, and the Wu Family.”

”These three families have been passed down from ancient times and could be said to be among the first to embark on the path of Martial Dao.”

”These families have special heritages; martial strongmen have never ceased, and their disciples are exceptionally powerful.”

Bai Lin said with a complex expression.

His eyes showed a hint of envy and complexity too.

”Never ceased?”

Lin Zheyu was extremely surprised upon hearing this.

The path of Martial Dao is incredibly difficult, demanding high talent, perseverance, and resources.

For these three families to have continued from ancient times until now, never ceasing in the path of Martial Dao, comparable to the Martial Alliance with powerhouses in the Shackled Realm, is truly astonishing.

”Could it be through marriage alliances with outsiders?” Lin Zheyu asked curiously.

”No.”

”These three Ancient Martial Families never marry outside; they only marry within the family or between the three families.” Bai Lin shook his head.

Lin Zheyu, upon hearing this, became even more curious.

His expression shifted slightly as a sudden inspiration hit him, recalling many scenarios from stories he read in previous lives, he speculated: ”Could it be about the bloodline?”

Family marriages, or inter-family marriages among the three, isn’t it to maintain the purity of bloodlines?

”Oh...”

”Indeed, these three Ancient Martial Families possess special bloodlines, which allow them to continue in the path of Martial Dao.”

Bai Lin’s face hinted at surprise briefly, recalling that Mr. Xiao’s strength was considerable, so his background must be extraordinary, with a powerful mentor behind it.

Thus he was also relieved.

”As expected.”

Lin Zheyu’s face showed a look of understanding.

His heart sparked a hint of curiosity; how wondrous must such a bloodline be to maintain the family’s thriving Martial Dao, with endless strongmen?

”This Dongtian World is named the Martial Realm, could it be named after the Wu Family rather than the Martial Alliance?” Lin Zheyu hesitated.

”That’s correct.”

”In the Martial Alliance, the strongest Alliance Leader is only at the Shackled Realm.”

”But these three families have strongmen comparable to Divinity Transformation strength.”

Bai Lin said with a bitter smile.

Under his explanation, Lin Zheyu gained a deeper understanding of the situation within the Martial Alliance.

You could say that if not for the existence of those three Ancient Martial Families, perhaps there wouldn’t be a Martial Alliance.

The Martial Alliance initially grew under the joint support of the three families.

The people of these families are extremely proud and look down on ordinary Martial Artists.

They have a disdainful attitude towards mingling with ordinary Martial Artists.

But they also don’t want their disciples to risk themselves and require manpower to do things for them, so the three families joined forces to establish the Martial Alliance.

It serves to recruit ordinary Martial Artists who have successfully cultivated in the mortal realm.

”Are you implying that the three families possess cultivation methods beyond the Shackled Realm?” Lin Zheyu asked.

Just now, Bai Lin implicitly mentioned that the three Ancient Martial Families have Divinity Transformation strongmen.

It is precisely these strongmen that allow them to guard this Dongtian World.

”That’s what’s said in the alliance, but it hasn’t actually been confirmed.”

”But what is certain is that these three Ancient Martial Families have strongmen as powerful as Divinity Transformation cultivators, with extremely terrifying strength.”

”Whether they ascended to Divinity Transformation by switching to the Immortal Dao, or matched Divinity Transformation with the Martial Dao, is unknown.”

Bai Lin explained.

Meanwhile, the battle fluctuations in the distance rapidly approached them.

Bai Lin’s perception wasn’t as keen as Lin Zheyu’s, but he too sensed the presence of a battle.
