Peak Reversal

Chapter 17: Fox Clan Background

“What do you mean impossible?! Are you saying that I'm lying?!” asked Faceless in an angry tone.

“The person you're talking about is one of the founders of the Fox Clan and existed about ten thousand years ago. How could you have been alive for so long and how did you survive fighting the Founding Ancestor?!” said the Third Ancestor.

A Body Refinement cultivator can at most live for about two hundred years, a Meridian Strengthening cultivator can live for about four hundred years, Qi Condensing have a six hundred years of lifespan, Core Formation have a thousand years of lifespan, Nascent Soul Realm have two thousand five hundred years of lifespan, Celestial Realm have five thousand years of lifespan and Saint Realm have fifteen thousand years of lifespan.

“I don't know which realm you've reached but you're definitely not a Saint Realm expert. Also, Founding Ancestor Muyang was a Light Element user, ranked sixth in the Elemental Rankings.” continued the Third Ancestor.

“Hahaha, how ignorant. I am a Shadow Demon with a Darkness Element which is ranked fifth so of course I could take on Muyang. And who said I wasn't a Saint Realm demon at that time, it's just that my bloodline went down by one rank after being corroded by the passage of time. But I have to admit, that guy was really terrifying. Tell me, you're not really from this world are you? The kind of power the Fox Clan once had isn't something just anyone can have.” answered Faceless.

“You're correct, the Fox Clan isn't from this world. The previous ancestor once told me about the history of our clan. We're from a different realm called the Canid Realm and our Fox Founding Clan Ancestors were slaves of the Nine Tails Fox Race, one of the overlord races of the Canid Realm.

After many years of servitude, the Nine Tails Fox Patriarch gave us the slaves two options. One, instantly get freedom or two, continue as slaves but obtain the Nine Tails Fox bloodline but the second option came with a condition. Once a slave had obtained the bloodline, they would then travel in groups to other realms, conquer or coexist was up to the slaves but we had to gain a firm foothold.

Naturally, all slaves chose the second option since the benefits were just too much to ignore. It's said that the Nine Tails Fox Patriarch manipulated space and time, covering distances that would have taken many years and distance to cross in just seconds. The slaves were rando...”

“Did you just say Space Time Manipulation?! Holy shit, the Nine Tails Fox Race is an overpowered race. Just out of curiosity, do Nine Tail Foxes' tails represent nine elemental manipulations?” interrupted Jace.

“Yes, the Nine Tail Foxes have control over nine elements but they randomly awaken their elements. Anyway, our ancestors ended up here but when we got here, war broke out between Righteous and Demonic cultivators. That war led to the fall of many cultivation families and after that, the aliens or rather alien races came here and tried to invade. The surviving cultivation families took action and stopped the invasion but that resulted in the complete fall of cultivators and emergence of technology with the help of Psychic Aliens.” explained the fifth ancestor.

It wasn't just Jace, Haoyu or Faceless who were shocked by this information but everyone present was shocked by this information.

...

The next day, Jace woke up early as usual and went outside to get some fresh air. Haoyu and Faceless were already awake when he went outside. As usual, Haoyu had found himself a tree which he was sitting under in a meditation position while Faceless just stood in the same place.

Jace walked over and the two quickly greeted him.

“Good morning Jace.”

“Good morning.”

“Good morning master.”

“Good morning.”

After greeting each other, silence pervaded the area as no one knew what to talk about. Haoyu returned to his meditation while Faceless continued staring into empty space, Jace was also about to continue with his own stuff when he remembered something.

“Hey Faceless, do you have a treasure that can increase my cultivation even as an ordinary person?” asked Jace.

“Unfortunately I don't... but I do know of a tree’s location that might just have what you're looking for. I even marked the location so it will be easy to reach the place. I think we can make it there in two days.” answered Faceless.

“Great! There's no need to go together. I think you alone will be enough. Go and get me that fruit, use whatever means necessary but I want that fruit. You have two days to complete your task, also, take these. I don't know how you're able to see but I think these might be helpful.” said Jace as he gave Faceless his Advanced Lenses.
