Chapter 39 The First Origin Sea Realm Cultivator in Mercer Family History!

Chapter 39: Chapter 39: The First Origin Sea Realm Cultivator in Mercer Family History!

"Breaking through to the Origin Sea Realm. The time is now."

Julian Mercer’s gaze sharpened slightly. He clenched his five fingers, and the Spiritual Energy within his body surged wildly, gathering toward his Purple Mansion.

The breakthrough proceeded without a single unexpected complication. In the blink of an eye, a vast sea of energy formed within his Purple Mansion.

Origin Sea Realm. Breakthrough successful!

From this moment onward, Julian only needed to continuously accumulate Spiritual Energy to make his Origin Sea deeper and broader.

When fighting against powerful opponents, he would be able to unleash a seemingly endless stream of energy from within his Origin Sea, giving him an enormous advantage in prolonged battles.

At the instant Julian broke through to the Origin Sea Realm, an intense Spiritual Energy storm suddenly erupted above the back mountain!

Terrifying waves of Spiritual Pressure swept across the surroundings, enveloping the entire Mercer Family residence.

The Grand Elder, who had already reached the Second Layer of the Purple Mansion Realm, was the first to sense the disturbance.

He abruptly raised his head and stared toward the back mountain, his eyes widening in disbelief.

"T-This Spiritual Pressure is far beyond the Purple Mansion Realm! And its source appears to be the back mountain. Could it be that the Patriarch has broken through to the Origin Sea Realm?"

The Grand Elder recalled that Julian had entered secluded cultivation in the back mountain not long ago, intending to break through to the Origin Sea Realm.

Connecting that fact with the astonishing disturbance before him, he immediately understood what had happened.

"The Patriarch has actually succeeded!"

It had been less than ten days since Julian last emerged from seclusion, yet he had already achieved another breakthrough.

Such terrifying talent was practically unheard of!

However, the Grand Elder soon remembered the Mercer Family’s current situation, and his expression gradually relaxed.

"This is good news. After all, the Patriarch has completely offended the Aldercrest Order. Now that he has reached the Origin Sea Realm and possesses Sword Intent, our family will have far more room to maneuver against them."

Thinking about how the Mercer Family now had an Origin Sea Realm cultivator protecting it, the Grand Elder felt an enormous weight lift from his shoulders.

His brows relaxed, and a genuine smile appeared on his face.

Shortly afterward, the tremendous commotion caused by Julian’s breakthrough alerted the Heavenly Origin Realm Elders one after another.

"What an astonishing aura! Could this be the power of an Origin Sea Realm cultivator?"

"The Origin Sea Realm? Has the Aldercrest Order sent someone to question our family?"

"That doesn’t seem right. I carefully examined the aura just now, and it appears to be coming from the back mountain."

"You mean the Patriarch?"

"If my guess is correct, the Patriarch has already reached the Origin Sea Realm!"

"Hahaha! Who could have imagined that our Mercer Family would actually produce an Origin Sea Realm cultivator?"

"Indeed! Just a few days ago, we were nearly annihilated by the Rourke Family. Who could have expected our circumstances to change so dramatically?"

"It’s all thanks to the Patriarch. Ever since he emerged from seclusion, our family has undergone one earth-shaking transformation after another!"

The Elders couldn’t contain their excitement.

Before long, the news reached the ears of the Mercer Family disciples.

Upon learning that their Patriarch had successfully broken through to the Origin Sea Realm, the entire family erupted into celebration!

Meanwhile, Adrian Mercer and Ethan Mercer exchanged glances, their hearts filled with complicated emotions.

"The Patriarch truly deserves his reputation. His progress is simply unbelievable."

Both young men had recently experienced astonishing improvements in their cultivation. Their growing strength and rising fame had naturally given them a measure of pride.

But now, learning that Julian had already reached the Origin Sea Realm shattered that pride in an instant.

They had thought their recent progress would allow them to narrow the gap between themselves and the Patriarch.

Instead, that gap had only grown wider.

Adrian clenched his fists, his expression turning serious.

"If I want to keep up with the Patriarch, my current strength is nowhere near enough! From today onward, I must work twice as hard. I need to become strong enough to share the Patriarch’s burdens as soon as possible!"

Ethan nodded firmly.

"Looking back, I really was too satisfied with my own progress. The Patriarch has given us resources that ordinary cultivators could never even dream of. He certainly didn’t do that so we could become complacent!"

He paused before continuing.

"I’m going to work harder, too. I want to help the Patriarch carry the family’s burdens as soon as possible!"

"Exactly! If we hadn’t been so pleased with ourselves, perhaps we would have made even greater progress by now."

Adrian shook his head and continued, "From now on, if some so-called genius comes to the Mercer Family hoping to challenge us and make a name for himself, I won’t waste my cultivation time entertaining him."

Ethan agreed immediately.

"Reputation is fleeting. Only personal strength truly matters!"

The two young geniuses, who had recently become somewhat carried away by their growing fame, finally recognized their complacency.

The realization washed away their arrogance and rekindled their determination.

A fierce spirit of competition ignited within both of them.

Neither wanted to remain satisfied with their current achievements. They wanted to become stronger, to stand beside the Patriarch, and to help the Mercer Family rise even higher.

For a while, their determination burned more fiercely than ever.

Meanwhile, while the entire Mercer Family remained immersed in celebration, Julian had already completed his breakthrough.

Sensing that only two days remained before the mountain’s transformation was complete, he decided to prepare Crownfall Mountain properly before moving the family there.

...

Not long afterward, Julian crossed numerous mountain ranges and arrived at the outskirts of Crownfall Mountain.

The aura radiating from his body carried a trace of the Dao. Before such overwhelming pressure, ordinary ferocious beasts became docile, while even the most vicious Origin Sea Realm beasts behaved like frightened kittens.

Julian paid them little attention.

Instead, he spread his Divine Sense throughout the surrounding mountains, carefully examining the entire area.

Once he had identified the locations of every ferocious beast at the Purple Mansion Realm and above, he acted without hesitation.

A series of thunderous attacks tore through the mountain range.

One after another, the powerful beasts were eliminated.

Julian continued until only ferocious beasts at the Heavenly Origin Realm and below remained. He deliberately spared these weaker creatures so that the Mercer Family disciples could use them for combat training in the future.

After finishing his work, Julian withdrew his aura and descended toward the middle slopes of Crownfall Mountain.

Before him stretched a vast, empty area covered with weeds and overgrown vegetation.

Julian glanced around, then opened the System warehouse and used the Architectural Gift Pack.

A brilliant golden light flashed across the mountain.

In the next instant, magnificent buildings began appearing throughout the area.

The Family Great Hall, Alchemy Great Hall, Artifact Refining Great Hall, Dharma Transmission Great Hall, Hidden Scripture Pavilion, martial arts arena, and numerous other structures materialized one after another.

Within moments, what had once been an overgrown wilderness had transformed into an organized and magnificent residence.

Looking at the newly constructed buildings, Julian nodded with satisfaction.

"Not bad."

Next, he arranged the Spiritual Spring and Spiritual Fields before taking out the Dragon Tooth Rice seeds and planting them in the fields.

Dragon Tooth Rice was a precious Earth Rank Low-Grade spiritual grain. It earned its name from the resemblance of its grains to dragon teeth.

Once harvested, cooked, and consumed, it could purify a cultivator’s blood and Qi, strengthen the physique, and regulate the internal organs.

With the Spiritual Fields’ ability to accelerate growth, combined with the Spiritual Spring’s nourishing effects and the improvements to quality and yield, Dragon Tooth Rice could eventually become a staple food for the Mercer Family.

It would provide the clan with a steady supply of nutritious spiritual grain while improving the overall physical condition of its members.

After finishing these arrangements, Julian left Crownfall Mountain and flew back toward Wexford City.

Upon returning to the Mercer Family residence, he looked toward the surrounding Elders and issued an order.

"Within the time it takes an incense stick to burn, gather every member of the Mercer Family here."

His voice carried unquestionable authority.

The Elders immediately came to their senses.

"Yes, Patriarch!"

They acknowledged his command and hurried away, spreading the news throughout Wexford City and summoning the Mercer Family disciples who were stationed in different locations.

Before long, the clan members began returning to the family residence one after another.

The courtyard gradually filled with people.

After receiving confirmation from the Elders that everyone had arrived, Julian nodded slightly.

He then faced the assembled crowd and announced a major decision.

"Starting today, the Mercer Family will relocate to Crownfall Mountain. From now on, it will become our new family residence!"

His announcement immediately stirred the crowd.

Many of the younger clan members looked at one another in surprise.

Crownfall Mountain had a notorious reputation. The surrounding region was filled with ferocious beasts, and ordinary cultivators generally avoided the place whenever possible.

Yet their Patriarch intended to lead the entire family there.

For a moment, apprehension spread among them.

However, their concerns didn’t last long.

When they learned that Julian had already slaughtered every ferocious beast at the Heavenly Origin Realm and above, their anxiety quickly transformed into excitement.

After all, once the greatest dangers had been removed, Crownfall Mountain was an excellent place to establish a residence.

It was a renowned mountain with a concentration of Spiritual Energy far greater than anything available in Wexford City.

In truth, the difference between the two places was enormous.

Thinking about their future life in such a remarkable cultivation environment, the younger members could hardly believe their good fortune.

Some even wondered whether they were still dreaming.

However, not everyone shared their enthusiasm.

The older members of the Mercer Family had lived in Wexford City for decades. They had grown accustomed to the place, formed deep attachments to their homes, and built their lives there.

For them, leaving was not an easy decision.

Noticing their hesitation, Julian didn’t force them to follow.

Instead, he ordered that any elderly family members who wished to remain behind could continue living in the ancestral residence in Wexford City.

He also left behind sufficient wealth and supplies to meet their daily needs.

"Should you encounter any trouble in the future, send someone to Crownfall Mountain. The Mercer Family will always be there to help you."

His words eased the concerns of those who had chosen to stay.

After completing these arrangements, Julian instructed the remaining clan members to pack their belongings.

Then, under his leadership, the Mercer Family began its relocation to Crownfall Mountain in a grand procession.

As groups of Mercer Family members appeared on the streets of Wexford City, their enormous movement quickly attracted the attention of countless residents.

One person informed another, who then passed the news along to several more.

Before long, the story had spread throughout the city and reached the City Lord’s Mansion.

Upon learning that Julian intended to take the entire Mercer Family out of Wexford City and relocate them to Crownfall Mountain, Darius Fenwick was immediately delighted.

"If the Mercer Family wants to leave, then let them leave! It would be even better if they never returned."

Ever since the Mercer Family had risen to become the dominant clan in the city, Darius had felt deeply uncomfortable.

Having such a powerful family within the territory under his jurisdiction had left him constantly worried. On many nights, he had struggled to sleep, and he had even experienced nightmares involving the Mercer Family.

Now, however, Julian was voluntarily leaving Wexford City.

For Darius, it felt as though a persistent thorn had finally been pulled from his side.

He could already imagine the peaceful days that awaited him.

At last, he would be able to enjoy a wonderful new life without constantly worrying about the Mercer Family!
