An injured old man stumbled into his territory! "Human, from this day forward, I am the guardian beast of your Chu Clan!" A guardian beast that struck fear into the heavens, And a family that rose like overlords of the myriad realms, Began their ascent to power! Countless ages later, When darkness descended once more and disaster loomed over the land, A colossal dragon capable of suppressing heaven and earth carved a bloody path through the shadows— With an invincible clan at its side! Chapter 1 Becoming a Guardian Beast "Human, were your words just now true?" "With your meager cultivation, you're really a family's ancestor? I haven't read many books, but don't you dare deceive me!" Near a pond at the outskirts of Nine Heavens Mountain Range, an injured old man leaned against a large tree, his pale face filled with terror as he stared at the magical beast watching him. It was a common White Frost Ice Snake, completely white in color, only about ten meters long! Currently, it was staring at him with its ferocious serpent head! But what shocked Chu Tianyang was that this White Frost Ice Snake could actually speak human language? for a magical beast to speak human language, it must have reached at least fourth-tier Demon Ancestor cultivation! Such powerhouses were world-destroying existences in his eyes! How could he encounter one at the outskirts of Nine Heavens Mountain Range? "Heavens wish to exterminate my Chu family!" Chu Tianyang lamented. Originally, he had entered Nine Heavens Mountain Range seeking a breakthrough opportunity to deal with his family's crisis, never expecting to not only suffer severe injuries from ambushes by enemy family cultivators, but also encounter this fourth-tier Demon Ancestor beast before him! It seemed there was truly no way out for him! Still, he gritted his teeth and replied: "Honored Senior, I'm not afraid of being laughed at - although this old man only has second-tier Warrior cultivation, I am indeed the highest generation elder of Qingyang Town's Chu family!" The White Frost Ice Snake looked at him, its intelligent eyes flashing with a hint of pleasant surprise. It then hurriedly asked: "How many members does your family have?" "Honored Senior, I beg you to spare my family members!" "This junior is willing to become your meal!" Chu Tianyang quickly pleaded for mercy. Their Chu family was already cornered by Qingyang Town's Ma family - if this fourth-tier Demon Ancestor python intervened as well, their Chu family might not even preserve a single bloodline! "Hmph, just answer when asked! Why so much nonsense? This sovereign doesn't eat humans!" Long Yuan snorted coldly, his tail smashing a nearby boulder into powder! Making Chu Tianyang's heart pound violently. "Reporting to Senior, approximately six to seven thousand people!" Chu Tianyang hastily answered. "Six to seven thousand..." Long Yuan's eyes shone brightly, "Hahaha, finally waited, this sovereign has finally waited!" Long Yuan felt exhilarated, roaring at the sky. an entire seven years since transmigrating, he had finally found a qualifying candidate! Long Yuan had transmigrated to this world, only to helplessly discover he had become the lowest-level White Frost Ice Snake! In this martial supremacy world filled with powerhouses, he was the type that could be crushed underfoot! Fortunately at the critical moment, the "Strongest Guardian Beast" system arrived - as long as he became a family or faction's guardian beast, the system would fully activate! Thus he had been hiding in Nine Heavens Mountain Range waiting for fate's chosen, only for the wait to last years! without cultivation techniques, he could only rely on instinct to absorb solar and lunar essences, barely reaching early first-tier Warrior cultivation. After consuming a spiritual herb from nearby mountains, he gained the ability to speak human language! Many cultivators hearing him speak assumed he was a fourth-tier Demon Ancestor beast, Over the years, Long Yuan occasionally encountered human cultivators, but none were suitable! "System, open character attributes:" [Race]: White Frost Ice Snake [Cultivation Level]: Early First-tier Minor Demon [Physical Cultivation]: Quasi-Minor Demon [Current Mission]: Become a faction's guardian beast [Mission Reward]: Bloodline Ancestral Awakening once, Emperor-tier top-grade technique "Azure Dragon Emperor Art", fifth-tier top-grade technique "Azure Cloud Art" [Guardian Faction Level]: None (Guardian faction level can enhance host's cultivation speed!) Chu Tianyang watched the White Frost Ice Snake excitedly thrashing about, feeling utterly bewildered. "Human, your family doesn't have a guardian beast, correct?" Long Yuan asked again. "Reporting to Senior, our family is too small to qualify for a guardian beast!" "Good, from today onward, this sovereign shall be your Chu family's guardian beast!" Chu Tianyang stared dumbfounded at the White Frost Ice Snake, "Senior? You're not joking, right? We're just a small family of a few thousand - we have nothing worthy of offering you!" This was a fourth-tier Demon Ancestor powerhouse, while he, the Chu family's strongest, was merely a second-tier Warrior! How could they possibly invite such a powerhouse? Long Yuan had no time for jokes - having finally encountered this opportunity, he couldn't afford to lose it! Six to seven thousand people might not be considered a major family in this world, but it was perfect for him! Those stronger factions probably wouldn't even glance at him! "Since you're the Chu family's highest-generation ancestor, this is perfect - make the oath!" "From now on, I, Long Yuan, shall become your Chu family's guardian beast!" "And your Chu family shall worship me for generations!" [Ding! Congratulations host for becoming Qingyang Town Chu family's guardian beast, system officially activated!] [Congratulations host for obtaining Bloodline Ancestral Awakening once, Emperor-tier top-grade technique "Azure Dragon Emperor Art", fifth-tier top-grade technique "Azure Cloud Art"] the rewards have finally arrived! Long Yuan trembled with excitement - not only ancestral bloodline awakening, but powerful techniques too. From now on, his rise to power would truly begin! Suppressing his excitement, Long Yuan looked kindly at Chu Tianyang: "Your injuries are severe - follow me!" Read complete version only at noᴠelfire.net "I have an excellent cave for your recovery. After fully healing, we'll return to your family!" Long Yuan led Chu Tianyang into the pond, mainly wanting to quickly see what surprises this ancestral awakening would bring! Chu Tianyang's mind buzzed, completely bewildered at suddenly gaining a fourth-tier Demon Ancestor guardian beast? Only when the pond's bone-chilling water soaked him, realizing he might have truly encountered heaven-sent fortune! The Chu family was saved! following Long Yuan through winding paths, they arrived at a dry underground space. Brightly lit with illumination stones embedded in walls - Long Yuan's prepared refuge, though never used! "Here are some herbs I gathered from nearby mountains - use whatever you need!" "I'll make arrangements, then we'll head to your family!" Excited, Long Yuan departed, leaving Chu Tianyang standing dumbfounded. "Doesn't this feel like a dream?" "A fourth-tier Demon Ancestor actually becoming my family's guardian beast? Even establishing a Heavenly Dao oath?" Chu Tianyang muttered dazedly: "Our Chu family has no treasures worthy of a Demon Ancestor's attention..." They were just a small town family! He couldn't comprehend - if this was just amusement, why establish the Heavenly Dao oath? For both warriors and magical beasts, Heavenly Dao oaths couldn't be made lightly - once sworn, they must be upheld, otherwise suffering light consequences like shattered cultivation hearts, or severe ones like soul dispersion! Yet he truly couldn't understand! Why would such a being value their tiny Chu family? "Enough, no more overthinking!" "With the Heavenly Dao oath established, we're truly bound together. If Senior accompanies me to Qingyang Town, dealing with that third-tier Grand Warrior Ma Bangguo will be effortless. Now I must recover and return quickly!" "Delays might bring unforeseen changes!" Chu Tianyang turned his attention to the medicinal herbs. Long Yuan reached the pond's depths, coiling comfortably on his usual resting boulder. "System, begin Bloodline Ancestral Awakening!" tremendous energy flooded Long Yuan's body, transforming his form! Long Yuan's spirit shook, excruciating pain spreading through every fiber, like blades and fire cutting and burning internally! Bloodline ancestral awakening was qualitative metamorphosis of life essence, necessarily accompanied by agony! Simultaneously, blue light enveloped him as his body underwent drastic changes!
