Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son

Chapter 1102: Luo Clan’s Ancestors’ Decision

After his clones returned to the training room, Zhang Fei brought Luo Yunxiao to Luo Fenghan and Huang Xiaoyi, who introduced him to Gong Wei and Lu Shaqing. ”Sect Master Gong comes from the Zenith Sect, and Sect Master Lu comes from the Spring Breeze Pavilion, both of which are located in the Sun-Moon Main Domain.”

Zhang Fei immediately read their status. According to the data, Gong Wei’s cultivation has reached the 2-Sun Celestial Venerable, and Lu Shaqing’s cultivation has reached the 1-Sun Celestial Venerable, just like Luo Fenghan and Huang Xiaoyi.

”Although my Spring Breeze Domain is a universal sect, we focus more on the Wind Element, and three-quarters of our members are wind cultivators. As for the rest, they have different elements.” Lu Shaqing explained it to Zhang Fei and Luo Yunxiao.

Gong Wei also explained it to them. ”My Zenith Sect is also a universal sect, but half of our members are body cultivators. One-quarter are formation array masters, and the rest of my members study various other fields, including swordsmanship.”

”What about you, Sect Master Gong? Are you a body cultivator or a formation array master?” Zhang Fei curiously asked.

”Haha.” Gong Wei laughed in response. ”Honestly, I’m interested in formation arrays, but I don’t have any talent in that field. I’m kind of a muscle-head person, so I prefer the body cultivation path and blacksmithing. My body cultivation has long reached the Diamond Body Stage, but I have never managed to break through to the Divine Body Stage.”

Zhang Fei then slowly spoke. ”When body cultivators break through to the Divine Body Stage, we will surpass the limits of blood, bone, and marrow, transforming their physical form into something that can contend with heaven and earth. Our bodies become divine, capable of harnessing and unleashing the power of heaven and earth.”

”Oh?” Gong Wei was surprised. ”Are you also a body cultivator?”

Zhang Fei smiled at his question. ”Just like you, my body cultivation has also reached the Diamond Body Stage, Sect Master Gong.”

”Did...did you just say that your body cultivation has also reached the Diamond Body Stage?” Gong Wei asked stutteringly.

Lu Shaqing was also shocked by this, and she thought she had misheard. However, Zhang Fei’s smile proved that his body cultivation had indeed reached that stage. ”You heard it right, Sect Master Gong. Look at his confidence; his body cultivation should be on par with yours.”

”How... how did you manage to reach this stage so quickly?” Gong Wei was completely shocked by that.

Zhang Fei immediately explained to him. ”Sect Master Gong, the mistake of common body cultivators is that they think that they cannot learn more than one body cultivation technique, mainly because learning one technique and reaching the peak stage is already too difficult. In reality, we can learn several techniques at once, and our body cultivation level will improve faster if we learn many techniques at once. Even so, we still have to temper our bodies with external help, such as pills, liquid, and other similar items.”

”I agree with you.” Gong Wei replied with a nod. ”In fact, I mastered three body cultivation techniques; otherwise, my body cultivation level would not have reached this stage today. Even so, I only managed to reach this stage after I became a body cultivator for thousands of years, so I was really shocked by your body cultivation level. So, how many techniques have you mastered?”

”As you have seen before, I have five clones. Currently, I have mastered seven body cultivation techniques, and most of them have reached peak level.” Zhang Fei’s answer made Gong Wei let out a heavy sigh, but it also spurred his spirit to do even better. ”Honestly, I still don’t want to stop studying body cultivation techniques, and I want to master as many as I can.”

Gong Wei nodded in understanding. ”In this universe, you’re probably the only cultivator who can learn so many techniques at once, especially since no one else has such realistic clones like yours. If you are interested in learning body cultivation techniques, you can try visiting my sect. I know you’re a disciple of the Immortal Lotus Sect, but I think it wouldn’t be a problem if you also wanted to join my sect.”

”Eh?” Zhang Fei stole a glance at Luo Fenghan and Huang Xiaoyi, as he didn’t expect that they would introduce him to Gong Wei and Lu Shaqing as a disciple from their sect. ”Thank you for your offer, but I still haven’t decided my next step, Sect Master Gong.”

”It’s okay; you don’t need to rush.” Gong Wei replied with an understanding nod. ”By the way, I’ll be returning to my disciples, or they’ll slack off if I don’t supervise them.”

After Gong Wei left, Lu Shaqing asked Zhang Fei. ”Who taught you your clone technique? I have a clone technique myself, but my clones only have 50% of my strength.”

After she said that, Lu Shaqing immediately summoned two clones, and Zhang Fei could sense that they only had half of her overall strength. ”No one taught me that technique, and I found it in the Star Tower.”

”The Star Tower?”

”Yes.” Zhang Fei nodded at her. ”Back then, I was trapped in an area filled with human bones, and I found an intact skeleton holding a scroll. After I read it, it turned out to be my clone technique, but the scroll did not write the name of the technique or its owner.”

”Hmm?” Lu Shaqing tried to recall if she had ever encountered someone from the Paradise Realm who possessed such a technique in the past. However, she was sure that she had never met or heard of someone with that technique.

Luo Yunxiao spoke directly to her. ”Sect Master Lu, there are so many mysteries in the cultivation world, as well as many rogue cultivators who don’t want to be known by others. The owner of that technique was probably a rogue cultivator in the past, so you may not have met or heard of that person before.”

”You’re probably right about that.” Lu Shaqing then asked her. ”Did he teach you that technique?”

Luo Yunxiao responded with a shake of her head. ”That technique requires too much Qi to maintain the clones, and my Qi capacity is insufficient to learn it. Even if I learn it, I’ll probably only be able to create one clone for a short duration, so I think it’s just a waste of my time to learn it. As for my husband, he was born with a much greater Qi capacity than most cultivators, so he has no difficulty using the technique.”

”One of the advantages and disadvantages of cultivators is their Qi capacity. Some cultivators are born with normal Qi capacity, some with high Qi capacity, and some with too low a Qi capacity, preventing them from going very far in their cultivation path.” Lu Shaqing then asked Luo Fenghan and Huang Xiaoyi. ”When will you two depart for the Divine Samsara Sect? The portal to the Forgotten Land should open in a week, right?”

Huang Xiaoyi answered Lu Shaqing directly. ”I won’t be going to the Forgotten Land this time, but my husband will take Zhang Fei and his wife there in three days. If I’m not mistaken, Beiming Youhuang will also be going there.”

”I see.” Lu Shaqing nodded in understanding. ”In that case, I will return to my disciples now, and we will meet again in the Forgotten Land.”

After Lu Shaqing left, Luo Jieyi and the others approached Zhang Fei and the others. ”Let’s go back, and we want to talk to you, kid.”

”Yes.”

A while later, they were gathered in the Immortal Lotus Sanctuary, and Luo Jieyi spoke directly to Zhang Fei. ”Kid, we’ve heard about your matter with the Fairy King. Although you’re part of our Luo Clan now that you’re Little Yunxiao’s husband, I regret to inform you that we don’t want to get involved in the matter between you two.”

Luo Yunxiao clenched both fists after Luo Jieyi said that, and her other ancestors also gave their nods of agreement. She wanted to refute them, but Zhang Fei immediately stopped her. ”Ancestors, I know that Yunxiao asked you all to be on my side, especially since you are her family. However, I can understand your decision, and I don’t have a problem with it. Moreover, I have never relied on anyone since I started my path of cultivation, and I have always tried to solve all my problems myself. If I run into a dead end and am unable to resolve my issues, I will seek assistance from my wives, family members, and allies. They may not be as strong as you all now, but they will become much stronger in the future, and their numbers are far more than enough to help me.”

”Hmm?” All of them frowned in response, especially since they didn’t know anything about Zhang Fei’s other wives, family members, or allies. ”How many allies do you have now?”

”Thousands.” Zhang Fei’s answer surprised them a bit. ”My organization is the Demon Fox Group, and all of them have reached the Seven Divine Realms, with some already reaching the Five Celestial Realms. With my status as a God-Rank Alchemist, I can concoct many pills that are beneficial to speeding up their cultivation. They are nothing compared to the cultivators in this realm, but one day in the future, everyone in this realm will hear of their names.”
