At the Chen Family Treasury
Before Chen Mo and his father stood a massive rock wall, marked with an ancient seal that radiated power.
Chen Ye bit into his finger, drawing blood, and pressed it against the seal shattering the barrier with a resounding crack. The rock wall parted, revealing a hidden passage.
"Come," Chen Ye said, leading his son into an underground chamber.
As Chen Mo followed, his eyes widened at the sight before him. The treasury stretched endlessly, filled with a dazzling array of treasures: precious pills, ancient weapons, rare techniques, and artifacts.
Chen Ye spoke, his tone carrying a mix of pride and nostalgia. "Son, this is the Chen Family Treasury. These treasures are the legacy of our ancestors, accumulated through countless generations."
Chen Mo nodded in awe but remained silent.
"However," Chen Ye continued, his voice turning serious, "this is not what I brought you here to see."
He walked over to a small pedestal in the corner, where a peculiar red stone rested.
"This," Chen Ye said, pointing at the rock.
Chen Mo frowned in confusion. Of all the incredible treasures in the room, why was his father showing him this ordinary-looking stone?
Sensing his son's doubt, Chen Ye chuckled. "Do not underestimate this rock. Your mother left it for you. She asked me to give it to you when the time was right."
At that moment, the system's voice echoed in Chen Mo's mind, brimming with excitement.
"Master, don't hesitate! Take it quickly this is good stuff!"
Chen Mo nodded firmly and reached for the stone. As he held it in his hand, he turned to his father. "Thank you, Father."
Chen Ye smiled. "Now that we're done here, you may leave."
At Chen Mo's House
"System, begin absorbing the stone," Chen Mo commanded.
"Yes, Master! Absorption commencing…"
A swirl of light enveloped the stone, its essence pouring into Chen Mo's mind. The process ended with a soft chime.
"Absorption successful! Congratulations, Master. You have obtained a ???-tier cultivation technique: Tyrant Body Cultivation!"
