Chapter 6251: Bloodline Resonance, Nine-colored Lightning Envelops the Sky

He couldn’t decipher much before the Immemorial Bloodline Tower was fully activated, but now that the formation had surfaced, he was able to gather more information.

“The first thing that has to be done before entering the tower is to awaken the Immemorial Bloodline Tower’s energy. The degree of awakening will determine the benefits we can obtain inside. The process won’t be easy, but the road of cultivation has never been smooth sailing. I implore you to do your best,” the yellow-bearded elder said.

He addressed the crowd solemnly from mid-air to rouse their morale. His words motivated many people, who expressed that they would give it their all.

“Aren’t they just making use of us?” Wang Qiang murmured to Chu Feng.

The two of them were seated in the formation, where they could feel the formation. As long as they willed so, they could fuse their bloodline into the formation. This was the only way to awaken the Immemorial Bloodline Tower.

Many people had already begun fusing their bloodlines into the formation, causing the surroundings to tremor.

The base of the Immemorial Bloodline Tower began to glow, casting iridescent lights in the sky. That was many different bloodlines vying for supremacy.

Wang Qiang was tempted to unleash his Four Fiends Divine Body, but Chu Feng suddenly placed his palm on Wang Qiang’s hands and said, “Brother, I advise you to remain a spectator.”

“D-d-did you discover something?” Wang Qiang asked.

He knew Chu Feng wouldn’t say that if he hadn’t discovered something.

“Look.” Chu Feng looked at the Immemorial Bloodline Tower.

The iridescent lights in the sky looked like thousands of clans vying for supremacy, but the strongest one of all was the nine-colored lightning.

A hundred layers of halos manifested around the Immemorial Bloodline Tower. The other bloodlines hadn’t even reached the third layer, but the nine-colored lightning representing the Heavenly Bloodline had already reached the thirtieth layer and was still swiftly climbing up.

At this rate, it was likely to reach the peak.

The higher the nine-colored lightning scaled, the brighter the Immemorial Bloodline Tower glowed. The connection between the two was clear.

But what Chu Feng was more focused on was the formation’s structure.

“This formation pits cultivators against one another. Only one bloodline can emerge victorious, and I suspect that the other bloodlines will become fodder for the winner.”

Wang Qiang widened his eyes in astonishment. “Fodder? Do they intend to devour all of us?”

“Not to that extent, but it may impair your bloodline. It’s just a conjecture on my part, but that seems to be the case based on the formation’s structure,” Chu Feng said.

“T-t-the heck! I didn’t expect them to be so despicable!” Wang Qiang berated.

“Brother, I shouldn’t be advising you to give up when we are rivals. You have a formidable bloodline, and you can monopolize the final benefit if your bloodline reaches the top. However, I’m not the only one with the Heavenly Bloodline here. The presence of the Huangfu Heavenly Clan is highly advantageous to me. If I awaken the Immemorial Bloodline Tower, it’ll benefit all cultivators possessing the Heavenly Bloodline, but it will be at your expense,” Chu Feng said.

Wang Qiang understood what Chu Feng was saying. “W-w-will I not be a stepping stone as long I don’t fuse my bloodline into the formation?”

“That should be the case.” Chu Feng nodded.

While Chu Feng and Wang Qiang were brothers, they were also cultivators. It was inevitable that they would sometimes have to compete over fortuitous encounters, and it would only be fair if they competed on their own merits.

However, the presence of the Huangfu Heavenly Clan skewed the odds greatly in Chu Feng’s favor. Despite Wang Qiang’s formidable bloodline, he was doomed to lose here. The same could be said about all cultivators who didn’t possess the Heavenly Bloodline.

That was why Chu Feng dissuaded Wang Qiang from joining the competition.

“I-I-I understand, brother. I’ll just pretend to f-f-fuse my bloodline power. I’ll leave the a-a-awakening of the Immemorial Bloodline Tower to you,” Wang Qiang said with a smile.

Wang Qiang knew that Chu Feng’s Heavenly Bloodline was even more formidable than his Ruler’s Bloodline. He wasn’t confident of beating Chu Feng’s bloodline by itself, so it would be wiser for him to back down here.

Chu Feng initially refrained from fusing his bloodline into the formation, choosing to spectate instead. While all Heavenly Bloodlines would benefit if the Heavenly Bloodline emerged as the victor of this competition formation, the bulk of the reward would go to the biggest contributor.

The Huangfu Heavenly Clan had come prepared, displaying tremendous prowess. Their bloodline power had already reached the seventieth layer of the Immemorial Bloodline Tower, but the rate of ascension had visibly slowed down.

Chu Feng noticed strained looks on the faces of the Huangfu Heavenly Clansmen, be it those in the older generations or the juniors. They were approaching their limit.

“Looks like it’s time to give them a push.”

Chu Feng was about to fuse his bloodline into the formation when the yellow-beared elder suddenly roared, “Activate your talisman!”

The Huangfu Heavenly Clansmen took out an ancient talisman each. Upon activation, the talismans morphed into spirit power and flowed into the formation. A bizarre surge of energy suddenly appeared in the surroundings.

“B-b-brother, there’s something amiss with those talismans!” Wang Qiang exclaimed.

The energy didn’t shroud them, but it bound everyone who had fused their bloodlines into the formation and forcefully siphoned their bloodline powers, causing their faces to warp in pain.

The bloodline powers that had stopped at the lower layers of the Immemorial Bloodline Tower began fusing with the stagnated nine-colored lightning, causing the latter to continue rising once more.

The Huangfu Heavenly Clansmen who didn’t enter the formation cheered in delight, though Huangfu Zhantian’s eyes remained closed, displaying his nonchalance.

“T-t-the heck! How shameless! How are they any different from demonic sects?!” Wang Qiang exclaimed in disbelief. He was glad Chu Feng had advised him earlier, or else he would have been suffering now too.

“Hold on, everyone. We are at a critical phase of awakening the Immemorial Bloodline Tower. You have to hold on!” the yellow-bearded elder continued to deceive them.

The majority of the crowd didn’t know that their bloodline power was being siphoned. They thought this was a natural reaction from the Immemorial Bloodline Tower, so they gritted their teeth and bore with the pain.

Soon, the nine-colored lightning reached the eightieth layer of the Immemorial Bloodline Tower.

But those shrouded by the energy were reaching their limits. Some fainted, but even when unconscious, the energy still continued to siphon their bloodline powers to fuel the Heavenly Bloodline.

The Huangfu Heavenly Clan showed no inclination to stop.

“Damn it, I can’t continue spectating anymore.”

The Huangfu Heavenly Clan wouldn’t bat an eye even if they siphoned these people’s bloodlines dry and destroyed their future, but the crowd was already reaching their limits, including the Huangfu Heavenly Clansmen.

At this rate, they wouldn’t be able to awaken the Immemorial Bloodline Tower’s true energy.

Chu Feng knew it was time for him to make a move. He had been observing the situation from the start, so he knew what to do to avoid catching any attention.

He secretly fused his bloodline power into the formation, and the stagnant nine-colored lightning suddenly surged up as if something had awakened it. Soon, it reached the ninetieth layer.

“Waaaaa!”

The Huangfu Heavenly Clan cheered in excitement.

This was not their first time activating the Immemorial Bloodline Tower, but they had never fully awakened it before. Their previous record was the eighty-fifth layer, but it had now reached the ninetieth level and was still going up.

Even Huangfu Zhantian opened his eyes. When he saw the brilliant nine-colored lightning, he widened his eyes in bewilderment and remarked, “This method works?”

“GAHHHH!!!”

A figure suddenly stood up and formed a hand seal—Huangfu Jiangxing. The veins popping from his body made it clear that he was exerting his full strength, and the nine-colored lightning he emanated was identical to the one scaling the Immemorial Bloodline Tower.

“I, Huangfu Jiangxing, shall be the one to awaken the Immemorial Bloodline Tower!”

Along with his roar, the nine-colored lightning surged to the peak.

All bloodlines returned to the crowd’s body. Only the nine-colored lightning was left enveloping the Immemorial Bloodline Tower, and it began fusing with the tower.

All of a sudden, a surge of lightning shot into the sky and scattered, enveloping the sky in nine-colored lighting. Everyone watched with bated breaths. Even Huangfu Zhantian also shot to his feet as he stared at the Immemorial Bloodline Tower incredulously.

The nine-colored lightning had fully fused with the Immemorial Bloodline Tower and was emanating a peerless aura. It couldn’t have been clearer that the Immemorial Bloodline Tower was fully awakened.

Everyone turned to look at Huangfu Jiangxing, and resounding cheers ensued.

“Huangfu Jiangxing!”

“Huangfu Jiangxing!”

...

The cheers started from just a few Huangfu Heavenly Clansmen, but more and more clansmen joined in. Subsequently, even outsiders began cheering as well.

They thought Huangfu Jiangxing was the biggest contributor to the full awakening of the Immemorial Bloodline Tower.

Huangfu Jiangxing smiled in glee as he took in the respectful gazes directed at him. He had been waiting for this day for a long time now.

I, Huangfu Jiangxing, shall become renowned in the world of cultivation!

Even Huangfu Jiangyue also looked at her little brother with a heartened smile. She knew this wasn’t just her little brother’s credit; everyone had contributed to this, including the bumpkins. However, the truth was not important.

As long as people believed it was her little brother’s credit, it would become the truth.

From this day forth, her little brother’s name, Huangfu Jiangxing, shall go down in the Huangfu Heavenly Clan’s annals!
