Qi Cultivation Starting from the Repair Panel

Such occurrences have been all too common in previous Heaven Burial Ceremonies.

The exit of Battlefield Number Three quickly stabilized, and Chu Zheng's figure appeared.

Beside Chu Zheng, there was likewise a vast emptiness, with no living creatures daring to approach.

However, this tranquility was soon shattered. Many powerful entities pushed through the outer crowd and came before Chu Zheng; they were emissaries from the various great ancient clans.

What surprised Chu Zheng was that, among the current ten great ancient clans, agents from every clan except the Xu Family and Feng Family were present.

These emissaries represented enormous forces that dominated the universe, extending olive branches to Chu Zheng that would drive any cultivator to madness.

The offers were breathtakingly generous.

First of all, he would be absolved of any blood feuds formed on the Space-Time Battlefield. As long as he was willing to join a clan, all past grievances would be wiped clean, no matter how many prodigious talents of other clans he had slain.

Secondly, most of these ancient clans made similar heavy promises. They promised Chu Zheng a share of Heavenly Fate's blessing, or directly bestowed resource-rich great realms as fiefs, along with divine weapons, or even a massive tilt of cultivation resources...

Some even offered exceptionally talented and noble-blooded dao companions.

This meant that if Chu Zheng nodded, he could instantly transform from a loose cultivator at constant risk, entangled in numerous enmities, to the core direct lineage of the universe's most elite forces, possessing unimaginable power, resources, and future.

The moment these conditions were presented, the eyes of many living creatures around them involuntarily showed envy.

At the peak of the River of Space-Time, the thoughts of those ancient ancestors cast their focused gaze once more.

They were all very interested in Chu Zheng's final choice, for this young man who mastered the restraining Immortal Dao Rune, his decision might subtly alter future dynamics.

The eyes of the Sun-Eroding Cry also fell, calmly watching Chu Zheng, awaiting his response.

In his mind, the offers made by the Giant God Clan had always been the most generous, and since the Giant God Clan harbored no prejudice against the Human Race, their approach was more straightforward, making it highly probable that Chu Zheng would choose to join the Giant God Clan for protection and development.

And this was clearly something he couldn't accept.

The rune that restrained the Immortal Path absolutely could not fall into the hands of foreign races, especially not to such a top-tier giant clan like the Giant God Clan.

If the Giant God Clan obtained the rune, relying solely on the Martial Path, the Human Race's lone tree could not support itself and could never rise again.

If Chu Zheng truly chose the Giant God Clan...

A very subtle flash of killing intent slowly traversed the depths of the Sun-Eroding Cry's eyes, and if so, he could only think of some ways to deal with Chu Zheng.

However, in his expectation, with Xue Qing's presence, Chu Zheng was likely to agree to enter the Martial Pavilion.

In an instant, the majority of living creatures' eyes were focused on Chu Zheng, waiting for his decision.

Yet, contrary to the expectations of all onlookers and even the ancient ancestors above the River of Space-Time.

Faced with the olive branches thrown by the ten great ancient clans that could drive any cultivator to madness, Chu Zheng's expression remained calm, and he then directly refused without any hesitation.

He did not even bother to listen carefully to the enticing detailed conditions added later by those emissaries, merely shaking his head slowly.

Chu Zheng not only refused the Giant God Clan, the Martial Pavilion, and the other eight great ancient clans but also bluntly dismissed similar offers from some powerful families and ancient sects outside the ten great ancient clans that came later, having heard of the stir.

For a moment, the entire area fell silent, with countless gazes fixed on Chu Zheng, filled with disbelief and astonishment.

In their eyes, Chu Zheng was rejecting a shortcut to the top of the universe, a path to free himself from the pursuit of all enemies, and to obtain supreme power and resources with ease.

Chu Zheng was just an obscure loose cultivator, how could he? How dare he act like this?!

After a brief moment of deathly silence, a wave of suppressed murmuring arose.

And those ancient clan emissaries, rejected on the spot, paused slightly in their expressions, with a swift glance of bewilderment deep in their eyes, but they said nothing more, turning to leave one after another.

After all, the ancient clans were ancient clans, some things are better not expressed too plainly in public.

Above the River of Space-Time, the auras of the projections of several ancient ancestors also showed slight fluctuations, evidently, this outcome greatly exceeded their expectations.

"Heh... interesting." The projection of the ancient ancestor from the Giant God Clan let out a low, ambiguous laugh.

The gaze of the ancient ancestor from the Star Moon Ancient Clan flickered, lost in thought.

The faint killing intent in the depths of the Sun-Eroding Cry's eyes quietly dissipated, and his brow furrowed slightly.

Chu Zheng's choice equally took him by surprise and left him somewhat puzzled, for not choosing the Giant God Clan or any other ancient clan, does he intend to stand alone against the direct lineage bloodlines of the eight ancient clans?

This seemed a bit too presumptuous.

......

......

At the moment of Chu Zheng's refusal to be recruited, a wave of subtle divine sense fluctuations emanated from those ancient clan emissaries, evidently reporting back to their respective clans and requesting further instructions for their next move.

Very soon, a series of cold secret orders, laden with killing intent, was transmitted to those direct lineage descendants of various ancient clans who had already obtained qualifications for the Heaven Burial Palace and were preparing to embark on the final journey.

Especially the Feng Family and Xu Family, who had the deepest enmity with Chu Zheng, both issued kill orders.

Not just them, the other rejected ancient clans, though not explicitly stated, mostly issued similar orders in secret.

The Heaven Burial Palace, where opportunities and dangers coexist, was the perfect place to solve troublesome matters.

Chu Zheng was unconcerned about these looming threats.
