My Cultivation Starting from Archery

Bai Linxun hurriedly arrived: "How are things here?! Old Qi, Old Qi was killed!"

"Escaped again?!"

Bai Laosi looked around and, not seeing the Demon Cultivator, came to this conclusion.

"Hmm."

Bai Liangbi pointed to the southeast direction, feigning anger as he said: "Mr. Xiao and I jointly tried to stop him, yet couldn't hold the opponent."

"Old Qi was also killed..."

Bai Laosan gritted his teeth in anger: "Fine, then we'll all die together! Follow me to pursue!!!"

As he spoke, he led the group straight towards the southeast.

The other family members dispersed, searching for traces nearby.

As for the outcome, it was naturally fruitless.

Only after several days did Dusk Valley return to calm, but it was also eerily silent.

"Boom—"

Only the Demon Suppression Great Formation atop the main peak of Da Ze would occasionally shoot out a beam of light into the sky, producing a thunderous roar, breaking the silence of Dusk Valley.

...

Inside the Family Head's Cave Mansion.

"Mr. Xiao, please have a seat."

Bai Liangbi actively poured tea and water, while asking, "I do not know the name of your friend, nor what kind of cultivator he is?"

"Demon Slaying Sect, Shangguan Siheng."

Shangguan Siheng replied briefly.

"It turns out he's from the Demon Slaying Sect."

Bai Liangbi nodded.

"Family Head Bai, can we speak frankly now?"

Chen Sansi said straightforwardly: "I guessed you were cultivating a Demon Technique through the elixirs I refined, but I never imagined the ones being used as Furnace Tripod objects were your own father and brother."

"..."

Bai Liangbi's arm trembled, causing the tea to spill onto the table.

He remained silent for a long time before speaking slowly: "It was father who asked me to do it."

"Senior Bai asked it himself?"

Chen Sansi expressed disbelief: "Why?"

Bai Liangbi put down the tea pot, gazing at the tabletop, lost in memory as he recounted the events.

"Years ago, while handling affairs outside, I captured a Demon Cultivator by chance, acquiring a set of Demon Cultivation Method and a portion of Dragon Blood from him."

"This Martial Arts Demon Cultivation Method is called 'Blood Refining Method,' capable of transforming oneself by merging high-grade Demon Blood, then rapidly enhancing cultivation using 'Blood Refining'."

"What is called 'Blood Refining,' as you witnessed, is absorbing living people into dry corpses; the closer the blood relation, the more similar the cultivation technique, the better the effect."

"Long ago, I began cultivating this method."

"But back then, I merely impersonated a disciple of the Seven Kill Sect to raid opposing family clans or Demon Suppression Department personnel without ever intending to target my own."

"For the Bai family still had hope."

"If the Qingxu Sect agreed to admit the Bai family, we could relocate our entire clan, moving far from Beiyang Dao, away from danger."

"Yet..."

"Later, as Mr. Xiao knows, the Qingxu Sect was unwilling to handle this matter."

"Plus, after father returned from the Nine Nether Forbidden Land, he was left with only one breath, incapable of finding aid anywhere."

"Should something happen to father, and the Bai family can't produce a True Power Perfection Martial Artist, it would perish silently."

"Thus, father's dying wish was for me to use the Blood Refining Method on him."

"As for Old Five, Old Qi..."

Saying this, Bai Liangbi's voice trembled slightly, yet his tone was resolute and angry: "They deserved to die!"

"Mr. Xiao knows nothing."

"Old Five and Old Qi have been colluding with Demon Suppression Department personnel these past few years, repeatedly attempting to steal the clan treasure to offer to those people!"

"This is the foundation of the Bai family!"

"If the foundation is destroyed, then the Bai family would no longer exist; it was they who first violated the ancestral rules, defying family law, so as the Family Head, I must cleanse the household!"

"Using them to cultivate a Demon Technique is actually a form of redemption!"

"Now that things have come to this point, I have achieved True Power Great Perfection. With all the necessary materials ready, it won't be long before I break through to the Mud Sculpture Golden Body Realm!

"By then, I won't need to fear Shouzhongzi!

"So, in the coming days of my seclusion, I ask Mr. Xiao to help guard. As long as I successfully break through, in the future, I can help you eliminate your enemies!"

After understanding the whole story, Chen Sansi nodded slightly, still feeling that something was strange, but couldn't pinpoint the reason immediately.

"Going around in circles is actually still for the clan treasure of the nobles."

He asked, "Family Head Bai, can you disclose some details to make it clear in my mind?"

"..."

Bai Liangbi hesitated for a long time and finally slapped the table, "Well, at this point, there's nothing to hide from Mr. Xiao!"

If he continued to conceal, failing to gain the other party's trust, the Bai family might lose even their last ally in a time of crisis.

"It's just..."

Bai Liangbi glanced at the person next to him, "I'm sorry to this Mr. Shangguan, but I can only trust Mr. Xiao alone."

"Hehe~"

Shangguan Siheng laughed awkwardly, "No problem, I'm curious but not desperate to know.

"Just a favor to ask.

"Could Mr. Bai let me look at that set of 'Blood Refining Technique'?"

"No problem."

Bai Liangbi nodded in agreement, tossing a jade scroll towards him, "However, to practice this technique, one needs dragon blood of third tier or above. Even if you learn it, you won't be able to cultivate it."

"No worries."

Shangguan Siheng picked up the jade scroll and began to focusedly browse the contents.

"Then I'll ask Mr. Shangguan to wait here, and we'll be back soon. Mr. Xiao, please follow me."

Bai Liangbi left the Cave Mansion, leading the way ahead.

The two left the residential area of Dusk Valley and came to Medicine Valley.

"Mr. Xiao, has your cultivation path been difficult?"

Bai Liangbi asked abruptly while walking, then continued without waiting for an answer, "The rise of my Bai family is actually a matter of the recent decades.

"At first, Bai family members were merely lowly merchants and laborers among mortals, struggling even to fill their stomachs, let alone cultivate.

"It wasn't until an ancestor, by chance, acquired a set of 'Wind-breaking Sword Skill' that they truly embarked on the path of cultivation.

"But that was just the lowest level of martial artist. It took six generations of efforts to nurture a True Power Warrior, allowing entrance into the Demon Suppression Department, to become a minion.

"For families like us, barring accidents, even if we strive for another hundred or thousand years, at most, we might only become Silver Token Demon Suppression Guards.

"But who would expect, an enormous opportunity suddenly fell upon my grandfather, allowing the Bai family to rapidly grow and establish themselves in fifty years, later coming to Beiyang and seizing a spirit vein to stabilize their position.

"This enormous opportunity is hidden within the Medicine Valley."

"It seems."

Chen Sansi said slowly, "The clan treasure of the nobles is indeed more precious than the Divine Wood Spirit Liquid."

"Do you know why the Demon Suppression Department, the Li family, or even the Seven Killing Sect, although eyeing the treasure covetously, dare not openly attack Dusk Valley?

"It's because once this item appears, not only the Golden Core Sects but also Nascent Soul and even Heavenly Water Saint Sect would come to snatch it.

"By then, no one can get it."

As they spoke, Bai Liangbi had already passed through the Medicine Garden, entering denser woods, pushing aside a large patch of Spirit Grass to reveal an extremely concealed stone gate of an underground Cave Mansion.

"Buzz!"

The stone gate opened, and the narrow corridor inside was unlit.

"It's inside."

Bai Liangbi was the first to enter.

Chen Sansi touched his Storage Ring and fully activated the Qi Observation Skill to cope with unexpected situations. Even if Family Head Bai ambushed him seemed unlikely, he still had to be on guard.

"Mr. Xiao, I have a question for you.

"As people pursuing the path of cultivating immortality, we seek nothing but longevity equal to heaven and earth. Initially, we should harmoniously help each other, so why is there constant killing and chaos?"

Bai Liangbi answered himself, "It's resources!

"Between heaven and earth, the spiritual energy is limited, and the heavenly materials and earthly treasures for supporting cultivation are even scarcer. To seek the great path, one can't help but strive and seize.

"What I want to show you can create infinite heavenly materials and earthly treasures!

"It's called 'Earth'!"
