2: The strongest family system

The next day.

Inside the Ling Family’s main hall for discussions.

All the important members of the Ling Family were gathered there, their expressions revealing a hint of worry.

“Young Lord arrives!”

Suddenly, a Disciple’s loud shout came from outside the door.

A moment later, Ling Feng, dressed in black, walked in and headed straight for the main seat!

Seeing Ling Feng arrive, the Ling Family members bowed respectfully to him!

“We pay our respects to the Young Lord!”

“You are all my, Ling Feng’s, uncles and elders; there is no need for such formality!”

“Please, all sit down.”

Ling Feng looked at the Ling Family members and slowly spoke! He then looked at his second and third uncles and said!

“Second Uncle, announce it.”

“Yes, Young Lord!”

Ling Buyi did not presume upon his status as Ling Feng’s uncle but replied respectfully! He then turned to the crowd and said.

“Everyone, I’m sure you all know that the Clan Chief, a few days ago, led the Family’s Disciples into the Lianyun Mountains to hunt Yao Beasts and search for Spirit Medicine. However, he was severely injured by a Yao Beast. Although he is now out of danger, due to the nature of his injuries, he cannot recover in the short term and needs to enter seclusion to recuperate.”

“Therefore, the Clan Chief discussed with me and the Second Elder, and we decided to pass on the position to the Young Lord ahead of schedule, allowing the Young Lord to take over as the Ling Family’s Clan Chief and manage Family affairs earlier.”

“Does anyone have any objections?”

“We respectfully obey the Clan Chief’s command! We will diligently assist the Young Lord.”

The Ling Family members all spoke loudly!

Everyone’s reaction and behavior were well within Ling Buyi and Ling Zhan’s expectations.

The Ling Family had no petty squabbles; the Family was very united!

“Young Lord, this is the Clan Chief’s token. From today onwards, you are our Ling Family’s new Clan Chief!”

Ling Buyi turned to Ling Feng and said respectfully, then took out a black token from his spatial ring and handed it to Ling Feng!

Ling Feng took the token, which was entirely dark and engraved with a large character ‘Ling’.

Suddenly, at this moment, a voice echoed in Ling Feng’s mind!

“Ding…”

“Detecting that the Host has successfully taken over the position of Clan Chief, becoming the Ling Family’s Clan Chief. System loading complete…”

“The Strongest Family System is starting up, please wait…”

“System startup successful! Now distributing the Newbie Gift Pack!”

“Does the Host wish to open the gift pack now?”

Listening to the System prompts in his mind, Ling Feng’s face showed a flicker of excitement.

Inside the Ling Family’s main hall, on the wooden armchair at the head of the table.

Ling Feng silently thought in his mind.

“No.”

Seeing Ling Feng’s excited expression, Ling Buyi couldn’t help but feel a surge of emotion, thinking to himself: “Still too young.”

“We pay our respects to the Clan Chief.”

The Ling Family members, seeing Ling Feng accept the Clan Chief’s token, all respectfully bowed to him!

“Everyone, dispense with the formalities. This is Ling Feng’s first time handling Family affairs, so I ask all uncles and Elders for your continued guidance.”

“Let us work together to develop and strengthen our Ling Family.”

Ling Feng looked at these respectfully bowing Family Elders and younger Disciples of the same generation, and spoke to them sincerely.

“Everyone, please go about your duties!”

“We take our leave!”

After everyone had left, Ling Feng spoke to Ling Buyi and Ling Zhan.

“Second Uncle, Third Uncle. Let’s not tell Big Sister and Second Sister about Father’s serious injury for now. They sent word last time that they were close to Breakthrough to the Profound Martial Realm. Otherwise, they would be very worried. It wouldn’t be good if it affected their Breakthrough!”

“I’ll explain it to them myself later.”

“Yes, Clan Chief!”

Ling Buyi and Ling Zhan exchanged glances and spoke in unison.

“Alright, Second Uncle, Third Uncle, let’s not be so formal between us. Just call me Xiaofeng as usual.”

Ling Feng looked at the two and said helplessly.

“Okay.”

“Then you two go attend to your matters first.”

Watching the two turn and leave, Ling Feng eagerly rushed towards his room… Soon, Ling Feng arrived in his room.

“System.”

Ling Feng didn’t even have time to sit down and drink tea, impatiently muttering to the System in his mind.

“Host, I am here.”

“Introduce your functions.”

“This System is dedicated to helping the Host develop a powerful Family. As long as Family members’ Cultivation achieves Breakthrough and the Family continues to develop, the System will automatically calculate the impact of relevant events on Family development, thereby granting a certain amount of Family Luck. Family Luck can be used for System draws.”

“The better and stronger the Family develops, the more Luck it will acquire.”

“This System will also periodically release some Family missions. As long as the Host completes them, rich rewards can be obtained.”

“System, open my attribute panel.”

Immediately, a pale blue light screen appeared before his eyes.

“Name: Ling Feng.”

“Identity: Ling Family Clan Chief (Bound, cannot be changed).”

“Cultivation: Body Tempering Third Stage.”

“Talent: Waste.”

“Physique: None.”

“Family Luck: 500.”

“《Hint: Family Luck can be used for System draws. Using Luck for draws does not affect the Family’s original Luck.》”

Ling Feng looked at his terrible attribute panel.

Suddenly, the System’s prompt sound came again.

“Ding, detecting that the Host still has a Newbie Gift Pack unused. Do you wish to open it?”

“Yes”

“Newbie Gift Pack opened successfully.”

“Congratulations, Host, for obtaining the Supreme Chaos Dao Body, one Dragon Blood Pill, one Realm Breaking Pill, and one Chaos Divine Art Cultivation Technique.”

“Physiques are divided into: Spirit Physique, Saint Physique, Divine Physique, Dao Body》”

Along with the System prompt, several white light orbs appeared before Ling Feng’s eyes.

Seeing this, Ling Feng reached out and touched one of the light orbs.

Supreme Chaos Body: The Supreme Physique among the Major Thousand Worlds. Due to the immense power of this Physique, the System has placed a Seal on it. The current stage is Spirit Physique, and the Seal will gradually be lifted as the Host’s strength increases in the later stages.

A surge of information instantly flooded into Ling Feng’s mind.

“System, Fusion with the Supreme Chaos Dao Body.”

Ling Feng silently muttered to the System in his mind.

“Okay, Host.”

As soon as the System prompt fell.

Ling Feng felt a warm current constantly surging throughout his body, continuously transforming his Physique, and his Cultivation talent was also being transformed!

As his Physique continued to undergo Fusion, Ling Feng inadvertently fell into a deep sleep.

His stagnant Cultivation also experienced a surge.

Body Tempering Fourth Stage

Body Tempering Fifth Stage

...Body Tempering Seventh Stage

...Body Tempering Ninth Stage

After reaching Body Tempering Great Perfection, the surging trend gradually slowed down.

Finally, he Broke through to the Yellow Martial Realm Early Stage before stopping!

“Martial Artist Cultivation Realms are divided into: Body Tempering Realm Stages One to Nine, Yellow Martial Realm, Profound Martial Realm, Earth Martial Realm, Heaven Martial Realm, King Warrior Realm, Imperial Martial Realm, Zongwu Realm, Venerable Martial Realm, Saint Martial Realm, Emperor Martial Realm, Divine Martial Realm.》”

...An hour later.

Ling Feng slowly woke up from his deep sleep.

The Physique Fusion was not as agonizing as in the novels of his previous life; instead, it was extremely comfortable!

What is that smell? It’s so foul.

Ugh… Ling Feng looked around and realized his body was covered in a layer of grime. It seemed this was the cleansing of marrow and purification of bones caused by the Fusion of the Supreme Chaos Divine Body.

“Someone, prepare hot water for me. I want to bathe.”

Ling Feng quickly instructed the maid outside the door…
