"Aren’t you getting better in using your cultivation powers too quickly?" Bu Ling asked with a surprised look on his face. An average cultivator will take one to two weeks to get accustomed to the powers the person newly acquired but Hutton took only two days to get a hang of it.
"Don’t you know I have the memories of all the experiences Emperor Chen went through while he was growing up so i kind of already know how to use my cultivation powers" Hutton asked while he was observing his right hand which he was flexing.
"Oh that’s true" Bu Ling replied as realisation dawned on him. But Hutton wasn’t listening to him as he began to think after he took notice of the storage ring on one of his right finger.
’I still have to go through Emperor Chen’s inheritance’
"Let’s go" Not too long after, Hutton said as he resumed his walk towards the entrance gate of the George branch family residence.
When they arrived at the entrance gate, they find out it is locked as they couldn’t open the gate normally with their hands.
"So are you going to do it or should I?" Quickly understanding the situation, Bu Ling asked with a calm smile on his face.
"I will have to trouble you then" Hutton replied as he backed away from the gate. After giving Hutton a slight nod, Bu Ling shifted his expression back to the gate.
And so, Bu Ling stood before the imposing entrance gate of the George family residence, his middle-aged frame tense with determination. With a deep breath, he tightened his fists, feeling the energy coursing through his veins. Without a word, he launched himself forward, his fist leading the charge.
With a thunderous crack, Bu Ling’s fist collided with the gate, the impact echoing through the air. Metal groaned and strained against the force of his blow, before finally succumbing to the sheer power behind it. The gate, once a symbol of the family’s wealth and power, now bent and twisted under the might of Bu Ling’s fist.
As debris scattered in the air, Bu Ling stood amidst the wreckage, his chest heaving with exertion. The entrance lay open before him, a testament to his strength and determination. With a satisfied nod, he stepped through the broken gate, ready to face whatever lay beyond.
’Such strength’ Hutton thought with a shocked look on his face as he followed Bu Ling from behind. But he didn’t know that he has done something similar to this in the past while he was still a normal human.
"What just happened!!?"
"Look!! Our entrance gate isn’t there anymore!!"
"And who are those two!!?"
"Who gives a f*ck who they are, they dare cause a commotion in the prestigious George family residence so they will be severely punished. Get them!!!"
The instant Bu Ling and Hutton got into the residence, the George family members and some of the security guards quickly took notice of them.
The George family residence exuded an air of timeless elegance and grandeur, nestled amidst sprawling acres of manicured gardens and towering trees. The estate stood as a testament to the family’s prestigious lineage, boasting architectural splendor that spoke of centuries of wealth and influence.
As one approached the residence, ornate wrought iron gates, adorned with intricate designs, guarded the entrance, hinting at the opulence within. But after Hutton and Bu Ling went through it, the gate became non-existent. A sweeping driveway, lined with vibrant blooms and ancient oaks, led visitors towards the main house, its facade a harmonious blend of classical and modern elements.
The main house itself rose majestically, its stately columns and regal balconies evoking a sense of aristocratic charm. Each window gleamed with polished glass, reflecting the sunlight in a dazzling display of affluence. Ivy climbed gracefully along the walls, adding a touch of natural beauty to the meticulously maintained facade.
Surrounding the main house, manicured lawns stretched as far as the eye could see, dotted with sculpted hedges and tranquil fountains. Beyond the gardens, hidden pathways led to secluded enclaves, where guests could escape the hustle and bustle of city life and immerse themselves in the serenity of nature.
Within the walls of the George family residence, luxurious interiors awaited, adorned with priceless artworks, antique furnishings, and decadent decor. Every room exuded an aura of refinement and sophistication, a testament to the family’s refined tastes and impeccable standards.
As the sun set over the estate, casting a warm glow upon its facades, the George family residence stood as a beacon of wealth, power, and prestige, a symbol of the legacy that the esteemed family had built over generations.
"Get them!!!" Right after taking notice of them, all the George family members and the security guards at the area immediately pounced on them as some quickly brought out their guns while the others are getting closer to Bu Ling and Hutton to do hand to hand combat.
But Hutton expression was still calm as he put his hands into his pockets while Bu Ling began to crack his fists as he commented with an intrigued smile on his face.
"Time for a warm up"
Bu Ling, a middle-aged cultivator at the Qi condensation stage, stood calmly in the center of a deserted alley, his senses heightened to the approaching threat. Around him, a group of assailants, armed with guns and eager for a fight, closed in, their malicious intent palpable in the air.
With a steely gaze, Bu Ling assessed his opponents, their numbers and weaponry no match for his honed skills and inner energy. As the first attacker lunged forward, fists clenched and eyes blazing with fury, Bu Ling sprang into action.Swift as the wind, Bu Ling’s movements were a blur as he deftly dodged the incoming blows, his body flowing with the fluid grace of a seasoned martial artist. With precise strikes, he incapacitated his foes one by one, their bodies crumpling to the ground in a chorus of groans and thuds.
Meanwhile, sensing the presence of the gunmen lurking in the shadows, Bu Ling focused his energy, channeling it into a powerful force that surged outward like a wave. With a collective gasp, the gunmen staggered back, their consciousness slipping away as Bu Ling’s energy overwhelmed their senses, rendering them unconscious.
With the immediate threat neutralized, Bu Ling stood amidst the fallen assailants, his chest rising and falling with exertion. Though outnumbered and outgunned, his mastery of martial arts and cultivation techniques had proven superior, securing his victory against all odds.
"What move was that?" Hutton asked quickly after taking notice of the energy wave that came out of Bu Ling’s hands after extending it towards the gunmens.
"Waving fists" Bu Ling answered with a calm smile on his face as he continued on his steps deeper into the residence. While following him from behind, Hutton replied with an excited look in his eyes.
"Cool"
"Stop!!!"
Right before Bu Ling and Hutton could step into the main building of the residence, a voice suddenly trailed into their ears forcefully as they were suddenly sent a few steps back by an unseeable force.

"Huh?" Hutton muttered with a confused look on his face but Bu Ling have a deep frown plastered on his face.
Not long after, a sudden disturbance rippled through the earth beneath their feet. With a low rumble, the ground quivered as if awakening from a slumber, sending tremors racing through the soil.Before they could react, the earth split open with a deafening roar, revealing a figure emerging from the depths below.
Clad in robes of ancient design, his face weathered with the passage of time, the aged cultivator materialized before them with an otherworldly grace.Bu Ling and Hutton watched in shock as the aged cultivator, at the eight phase of the Foundation Establishment stage, rose from the earth like a specter from the underworld. His eyes, ablaze with inner energy, bore into theirs with an intensity that spoke of centuries of wisdom and experience.
"An element cultivator" Bu Ling suddenly commented with a grim look on his face. But when Hutton became confused as he asked.
"An element cultivator?"
"Yes. Element Cultivators stand as the guardians of balance and harmony. These formidable individuals possess a rare and coveted gift: the innate ability to harness the raw power of nature’s elements and wield them with unparalleled skill and precision.
Each Element Cultivator is attuned to a specific element - be it fire, water, earth, air, or even more esoteric forces like lightning or ice. From a young age, they undergo rigorous training, honing their control over their chosen element through disciplined practice and meditation.
As they progress on their path of cultivation, Element Cultivators unlock ever greater mastery over their element, manifesting its power in breathtaking displays of strength and prowess. From summoning raging infernos to quelling tumultuous storms, their abilities are limited only by their imagination and skill.
But with great power comes great responsibility, and Element Cultivators are sworn to uphold the delicate balance of the world. They act as protectors, defenders, and sometimes even arbiters, using their abilities to safeguard the innocent and preserve the natural order from those who would seek to disrupt it.
Yet, not all who possess the gift of elemental manipulation choose the path of righteousness. Dark Element Cultivators, corrupted by power and ambition, lurk in the shadows, wielding their abilities for selfish gain and malevolent purposes. It falls to the noble Element Cultivators to thwart their schemes and restore balance to the world.
In a realm where the forces of nature reign supreme, Element Cultivators stand as both champions and custodians, their mastery over the elements a testament to the indomitable spirit of humanity in harmony with the world around them" Bu Ling explained with the same grim look on his face.
But right before Hutton could speak, the aged man suddenly spoke up in a very icy tone.
"How do you want to die?"
