Chapter 767: Chapter 211 Gains Precious Treasure, Scares Ba Tan Insane (10,000 Word Plea for Subscriptions)_2

"You’re talking about your maternal grandfather? What’s his name?"

"Chen Yongwang."

Chen Jie directly stated his grandfather’s name, to which the old Taoist was taken aback and said, "No, he is not my young disciple."

Hearing this, Chen Jie asked, "Taoist priest, when was your Chang Chun Valley destroyed?"

The old Taoist was again surprised, "Over a hundred years ago."

Chen Jie said, "Senior, then it definitely wasn’t my grandfather. Even if my grandfather were alive today, he would be only in his seventies."

The Taoist paused and said, "Hmm, you are right. However, the fact that your grandfather was able to learn the Yang Chun Skill indicates that he must have had some contact with the descendants of my Chang Chun Valley. Perhaps he was also a descendant of our valley."

At this revelation, Chen Jie was startled and remembered some of the rumors about his grandfather.

His grandfather had left home when he was young, then wandered the outside world, and about thirty years ago, he returned home seriously injured, thereafter staying out of external affairs and acting only as a local doctor.

And yet, for such a renowned physician, he had not lived a long life, passing away at the age of sixty.

Now that he thought about it, thirty years, wasn’t that around the same time the Medicine King Treasure was last opened?

At this moment, an idea formed in Chen Jie’s mind; perhaps in his youth, his grandfather had met a successor of Chang Chun Valley and, by coincidence, became the disciple of such a person—moreover, an immediate disciple, and received the Yang Chun Skill.

It seemed likely that their lineage had always aimed to find the Medicine King Treasure and had therefore prepared actively thirty years ago.

But, that struggle thirty years prior was well-known; it was exceedingly brutal. There were five or six leaders from the Rainbow Realm, as well as more than ten from the Wolf Smoke Realm, and countless more from the Holding Core Realm.

In the end, it was the Undying Bird Han Miaozhen who seized the Fire Phoenix Pill and ascended to the Dragon Realm, thereby ending the battle.

Given such a ferocious conflict, it would be reasonable that if his grandfather had been involved and was grievously injured but survived.

With these thoughts, Chen Jie felt he was nearing the truth about his grandfather.

Meanwhile, the old Taoist spoke again, "Regardless, your ability to learn the Chang Chun Skill implies a destined connection with my Chang Chun Valley. So, young man, are you willing to accept the inheritance of Chang Chun Valley?"

Chen Jie immediately responded upon hearing the Taoist’s words, "Junior is willing."

The Taoist nodded with satisfaction upon hearing this, thinking that this fellow was not like that Monk Peng, obstinately refusing. This one was rather agreeable.

Having said this, the old Taoist then turned to Chen Jie and spoke, "Alright, since that is the case, let me tell you about Chang Chun Valley."

"Chang Chun Valley was founded by the renowned physician from the Later Zhou Dynasty, Ge Zhong, our great ancestor. His ancestors included Ge Hong, the patriarch of the Alchemy Dao."

"In time, after attaining the Chang Chun Skill, he secluded himself to study this technique, established Chang Chun Valley, and self-styled as Chang Chunzi. Successive generations of descendants from Chang Chun Valley all bore the title Chang Chunzi."

"When you take over Chang Chun Valley, you too may call yourself Chang Chunzi."

Chen Jie was taken aback and did not speak; the name sounded rather old-fashioned.

Thinking this, Chen Jie then said, "Senior, there is something I don’t understand. Who destroyed our Chang Chun Valley back in the day, and should I, upon accomplishing greater skill, seek vengeance for this?"

The old Taoist sighed and replied, "The ones who destroyed our Chang Chun Valley were a total of five forces, amongst which the most formidable was the Zhao Song Imperial Family."

"Hmm?"

Chen Jie furrowed his brow and asked, "Senior, why did the Zhao Song Imperial Family destroy our Chang Chun Valley?"

The old Taoist answered, "Of course, it was because of the Chang Chun Skill we cultivated, which is among the Huaxia Three Divine Skills..."

The old Taoist recounted the stories of the Huaxia Three Divine Skills.

Only then did Chen Jie understand the significance of the Four Seasons Celestial Phenomenon Technique.

It even had connections to the Human Emperor.

The legends of the Three Ancestors of Humanity were known to all.

Emperor Xuanyuan, Emperor Yan and Emperor Shennong, and Jiuli Chiyou.

All three were towering figures, each possessed their own divine abilities.

And from what the old Taoist said, Chen Jie came to realize that these three figures had left behind three peerless cultivation techniques.

"Xuanyuan Heart Method," "Jiuli Demon Technique," "Four Seasons Celestial Phenomenon Technique."

Chen Jie muttered to himself, feeling greatly astonished.

The old Taoist continued, "Precisely, our Chang Chun Valley is the inheritance of the Human Emperor, and according to ancient prophecies, those who can cultivate these three techniques are people with a Heavenly Mandate, with a chance in the future to compete for worldly supremacy, even to sit upon the imperial throne."

Chen Jie remained silent.

However, he was somewhat convinced by the old Taoist’s words; they seemed logical, and Chen Jie also finally understood.

The Thirteen Breaking Tribulation Strokes that he was practicing could likely be the spear technique created by Marshal Yue Fei, which was incredible.

Who in the world would not know of Marshal Yue? While later generations mostly recounted his divine military strategies, they all forget that he began as a fierce general, charging into battle and emerging victorious.

It seemed he had not placed enough importance on the Thirteen Breaking Tribulation Strokes; when he had time, he would have to collect a few more techniques.

Chen Jie looked at the old Taoist and asked, "Senior, aside from the Zhao Song, were there other sects involved in the siege on Chang Chun Valley?"

The old Taoist answered, "Yes. However, according to my recent conversation with Monk Peng, two of these sects have been completely eradicated, and another is down to just a handful of stragglers, leaving only one sect that is now thriving and has even become one of the Six Great Sects of the Martial Arts world."

Chen Jie looked at the old Taoist, "Senior, which sect is that?"

The old Taoist replied, "Kongtong Sect!"

"At the time of the assault on our Chang Chun Valley, Yu Kunzi, the sect leader of Kongtong Sect, was involved!"

"Yu Kunzi?"

Chen Jie looked at the old Taoist with surprise. The old Taoist nodded gently, "Correct, it was Yu Kunzi. However, he later recklessly clashed with my palm power and was directly shaken to death by my Spring God’s Fury."

"I had hoped by taking his life, his descendants would lead Kongtong Sect to ruin. However, I never expected that Kongtong Sect would have successors who propelled it to become one of the current Six Great Sects of the Martial Arts world."
