After Chu Feng entered the Bloodline Altar, the younger generation of the Chu Clan became exceptionally excited and eager, each one itching to step into the Bloodline Altar themselves.
However, no one dared to act without permission. Instead, they all turned their eyes to the Patriarch of the Chu Clan.
They were all waiting for a command.
“Listen, all members of the younger generation of our clan.”
“Inside the Bloodline Altar, there are multiple barrier gates. Behind each gate lies a unique technique.”
“Due to the restrictions of the grand formation within the Bloodline Altar, each person can only enter one barrier gate.”
“Whether it’s an immortal technique, a martial skill, or a secret art, you can only comprehend one technique. So, choose carefully, as you only have one chance.”
“Additionally, opening the barrier gates requires overcoming certain challenges. It might require the power of formations, solving puzzles, or even brute force. The methods vary.”
“You must assess your own abilities. If you can break through a gate, do your best. If not, move on to another gate quickly. Otherwise, when the time limit is up, you will be forcibly ejected from the Bloodline Altar.”
“Lastly, and most importantly, if multiple people are interested in the technique behind the same barrier gate, do not fight over it. The person who stands in front of the gate first has the right to attempt to open it. If anyone tries to forcibly take it, they will be reported to the Punishment Department, and severe punishment will be dealt.”
“Do you all understand?” the Patriarch of the Chu Clan asked loudly.
“Yes, Patriarch, we understand.”
The younger generation of the Chu Clan responded with a roar louder than thunder.
“Good, go ahead.”
The Patriarch waved his hand.
In the next moment, countless figures shot forward like arrows released from a bow.
The younger members of the Chu Clan, all under a hundred years old, rushed forward at their fastest speeds, heading straight for the entrance of the Bloodline Altar.
Inside the Bloodline Altar was a long corridor that seemed to stretch endlessly.
On both sides of the corridor were barrier gates, each with a plaque above it.
The plaques bore the names of immortal techniques, martial skills, and even secret arts.
These plaques served as the most enticing guides for the younger generation.
However, as the Patriarch had said, opening these barrier gates was no easy task.
Moreover, the more powerful and valuable the technique behind the gate, the more difficult it was to open.
Despite knowing this, the younger members of the Chu Clan were still eagerly selecting the gates that interested them the most.
While they were busy choosing, Chu Feng had already entered a barrier gate.
This gate was located not far from the entrance of the Bloodline Altar.
The plaque above it read: “Secret Art: True Soul Split.”
The secret art was actually quite simple—it was a cloning technique.
For most people, this held no appeal, so when they saw the plaque, they didn’t even notice if anyone had entered and simply ignored it.
This was because, for people of their cultivation level, cloning techniques were considered basic, something everyone could do.
But it was precisely for this reason that Chu Feng chose it.
Chu Feng felt that since this secret art was hidden here, it couldn’t be as simple as it seemed.
And indeed, as Chu Feng had suspected, the “True Soul Split” secret art was anything but ordinary.
When activated, it not only created a clone with the same combat power as the original, capable of fighting on behalf of the master, but most importantly, it mimicked the master’s soul so perfectly that even experts in spirit formation techniques would struggle to tell the difference.
Chu Feng thought that if this “True Soul Split” were used as a direct attack method, its effectiveness might be minimal.
But if used as a feint or a surprise attack, the results could be extraordinary, potentially achieving miraculous effects.
Secret arts possess their own souls, and conquering them is no easy task.
But perhaps due to the influence of the Bloodline Altar, or perhaps because of Chu Feng’s innate charm, the secret art immediately merged with him as soon as it appeared. Without even needing to communicate, the secret art became entirely his, fully under his control.
After obtaining the secret art, Chu Feng exited the barrier gate. Once he stepped out, the gate disappeared.
This was normal. Unlike immortal techniques or martial skills, secret arts are unique and can only belong to one master.
Since Chu Feng had claimed this secret art, the barrier gate was now empty, rendering it useless.
Chu Feng continued forward, still observing the techniques listed on the plaques of the barrier gates. Although many of them were intriguing, he didn’t stop. It wasn’t that he wasn’t interested, but the power of the Bloodline Altar controlled everything.
Each person could only enter one barrier gate. Once they exited, they couldn’t enter another, even if they could open the gate.
As he walked, every junior who saw Chu Feng greeted him warmly, and many even thanked him.
This was understandable. After all, it was Chu Feng who had activated the Bloodline Altar. Without him, they wouldn’t have had the opportunity to enter and select techniques here.
It was worth noting that these techniques didn’t belong to the Chu Clan. They were all left behind by a mysterious figure.
However, as he continued walking, Chu Feng’s expression suddenly shifted.
Up until now, even when people greeted him, it was only a brief acknowledgment before they immediately returned to focusing on breaking through the barrier gates they had chosen.
After all, the opportunity was rare, and time was limited. No one wanted to leave empty-handed.
But now, ahead of Chu Feng, a crowd had gathered, blocking the corridor.
They were watching some kind of spectacle.
Chu Feng was curious. What kind of spectacle could make these people waste such precious time?
Driven by curiosity, Chu Feng’s gaze shifted, and the people blocking his view began to disperse one by one.
Finally, Chu Feng saw the focus of the crowd’s attention.
It was a barrier gate, and the plaque above it read: “Immortal Forbidden Art: Void-Splitting Axe.”
Just from the name, it was clear that this was an extraordinary immortal forbidden martial skill.
In front of the gate stood a man, but instead of trying to break through the barrier, he was facing away from it.
In front of him lay a woman.
It seemed the man had been competing with someone for this barrier gate, and that someone was clearly the woman.
At the moment, the man had the upper hand.
In truth, even though the Patriarch had explicitly forbidden such conflicts, they still happened frequently. Chu Feng had seen many on his way here.
But this particular scene was the first to attract such attention.
The reason was likely the woman lying on the ground.
Chu Feng recognized her.
She was Chu Yue.
