My Descendants Are My Power

Chapter 92: Chapter 92: Psychic Sanctuary

Ethan had been watching Daniel's screen intently. Soon, the scene shifted back to Gratitude Village.

The village remained as peaceful as ever, with men and women working the fields, crows flying into the woods, and few travelers passing by. It was a picturesque rural scene, now surrounded by an abundance of psychic abilities.

The Blackwood estate at the end of the village had grown even more magnificent, with pavilions and terraces, and villagers from Gratitude occasionally entering, especially the martial arts tower which now saw the most visitors. However, compared to before, Blackwood now had strict rules in place.

The Black Blood Hall, with its 500 members, still clad in armor, had its weakest members at the fourth level of Foundational Energy, with a hundred of them soaring in the sky on giant eagles, monitoring the vicinity of Gratitude Village.

In the Silver Iron Forest, the animals were not afraid of humans, occasionally coming to Gratitude Village to be fed by the villagers or to fertilize the psychic fields, creating a harmonious environment.

Inside the Blackwood estate, a dozen maids and as many wet nurses were taking care of children. The changes over the past two years had been significant.

Ethan checked the event log:

[In the 61st year of Blackwood, Laura gave birth to a daughter named Melissa after being pregnant for ten months.]

[15-year-old Andrew and Miss Skylar Moore fell in love and got engaged, with plans to marry in three years.]

[In the 62nd year of Blackwood, Dorothy gave birth to a son named Riley after being pregnant for ten months.]

[...]

[Fourth generation descendants of Blackwood: Nine members!]

In just three years, nine descendants were born, and in just three hours, Ethan became most familiar with young George.

Meanwhile, Daniel had already taken Holden inside for a detailed discussion. Soon after, a special event occurred:

[In the 62nd year of Blackwood, your descendant Marcus made a breakthrough to the mid-stage of Emerging Ability at the Sky Sect Palace!]

[The master of the deceased Silas, Mason, feeling increasingly threatened by Marcus, hired a Transcendent Seed assassin from the county town to kill Marcus during a sect mission, but he was saved by your skill 'Forebearer's Raging Fury'!]

[Marcus reported to the sect master Wesley, who dismissed the accusations as baseless and warned against reckless actions.]

[Special Event]

[To eliminate the lingering threat from Silas's death, Marcus decided to ask Elder Dylan and twelve inner disciples to eradicate the Rodriguez family and remove Mason's influence outside the Sky Sect.]

[You decide...]

"I decide? I decide to take him down!" Ethan exclaimed, his eyes wide with determination. Marcus was the most precious of the third-generation descendants, and just an hour ago, he had almost lost him due to a slow reaction.

Although Marcus had no intention of involving the family and even kept silent in his letters, fearing that Blackwood might act rashly and bring disaster upon themselves, look at what a good kid he was!

This was the decision he and the family had made after much consideration. No matter where you are, as an important part of Blackwood, don't try to handle everything on your own!

Ethan moved his mouse over to the skill option.

[Fight, dear Forebearer!]

[Remaining Spiritual Tribute points—38,650.]

"We're Blackwood; why should we fear a mere D-level? Kid, your family is your biggest support!"

[Green Garden County·Mount Five Peaks]

Ethan opened the map and saw the location of Blackwood's adversaries.

The Rodriguez family's Mount Five Peaks appeared to be a mountain peak sliced in half, with its residence at the summit adorned with splendid buildings, a significant site for the family's growth and prosperity.

At this time, Blackwood was already preparing to attack the Rodriguez family.

After receiving intelligence from Qingping Moore and Cloudrise Oceanview Pavilion, Ethan was also observing the entire Mount Five Peaks to gather more useful information.

The details on the map became complete as Ethan observed.

[Rodriguez family has thrived for 722 years.]

[Family members: 3286]

[Founding ancestor with Developing Skill, name: Liam, lifespan: 342 years]

[Emerging Ability experts: 121, including 4 at the Transcendent Seed stage, 13 at the peak of Emerging Ability...]

[Family's grand formations—Five Unique Psychic Traps, Hundred Psychic Bluebird Totem...]

"Is a Developing Skill family that has only risen in the last century already so deeply rooted?" Ethan looked solemn.

A Developing Skill family is truly considered a house of cultivating psychic powers, with D-level members having a lifespan of 500 years and formidable strength, allowing their family to possess vast resources.

A family survives for 500 years, basically undergoing a qualitative change.

That is, facing the newly risen Rodriguez family, if it were an ancient Developing Skill family, Ethan wouldn't dare boast about annihilating them.

Before this.

Ethan had learned about an old Developing Skill family existing for over two thousand years, with dual Developing Skills, a family membership exceeding 120,000, nearly twenty at the Transcendent Seed stage alone, and always on the verge of achieving triple Developing Skills.

Such Developing Skill families often possess a strong foundation, with descendants spread throughout the entire Cloudview County, even those in the Competent stage must show respect.

After all, with the full strength of the family and numerous resources, and being ancient, who doesn't have some formidable friends outside? Blackwood is the best example, with a Developing Skill in-law during their Emerging Ability phase, Marcus is a direct disciple of the Sky Sect. A family of a thousand years, potentially reaching over a million descendants, who knows what such a family hides.

"Over three thousand family members, I wonder when Blackwood will reach this stage."

Ethan looked forward with anticipation.

He then shifted his gaze towards the Blackwood residence.

At this time, the family members had also temporarily ended their seclusion.

...

[Silver Iron Forest]

Deep within Blackwood lies the Psychic Sanctuary, part of the Silver Iron Forest domain. Here, the disciples of Blackwood engage in cultivating psychic powers, aided by the group trait 'Guardians of the Silver Iron Forest,' which boosts their cultivation speed by 10%!

They had long sensed this, and the important members of Blackwood chose this place for their secluded cultivation, laying out the Psychic Sanctuary with precious Energy Stones.

Beneath the ground, millions of basic Energy Stones and tens of thousands of intermediate Energy Stones were deeply buried.

As time passed.

Inside Gratitude Village, the Blackwood estate openly served as the living quarters for Blackwood. However, over the years, important items such as the ancestral hall where Blackwood worshipped their Forebearer, the psychic treasure 'Direct Death Coffin,' and the eighth-grade blood psychic fruit trees were gradually moved to the Psychic Sanctuary in the Silver Iron Forest.

"Boom!"

After nearly ten years of seclusion, Nathan stepped out of the Psychic Sanctuary. He breathed in the fresh air outside the Psychic Sanctuary before opening his eyes.
