Family Cultivation: Evergreen of the Song Family

Looking at that boundless hand that could blot out the sky, the Howling Demon King, who had dominated the demon kingdom for nearly a thousand years, felt as if the blood in his body had stopped flowing.

Since breaking through to the fourth-tier top-grade level, he had only ever felt such a powerful sense of oppression from his own ancestor.

Was it an attack by enemies from other demon kingdoms, or did human cultivators bypass the ancient covenant?
In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through his mind, and he quickly realized that he was probably in grave danger this time.

Even so, he couldn't just sit and wait to die!

"Roar--"

With a deafening roar, the Howling Demon King revealed its true form: a white-browed tiger with piercing eyes, its body resembling a small mountain. Its protruding fangs were dozens of feet long, and most striking of all were its ferocious, round tiger eyes with pupils that shone with brilliant gold.

He stood up and used his claws to fight back against the giant hand that had descended from the sky.

"boom--"

The moment they made contact, the Howling Sky Demon King felt as if he had crashed into an unshakeable mountain. His bones trembled uncontrollably, the rocks beneath his feet shattered, and half of his body was embedded in the mountain. The remaining half of the Spirit Peak was also cracked open with a huge fissure.

Flocks of demonic birds took flight in fright, and demonic beasts fled in panic. The once high and mighty demons were now as insignificant as ants.

As the most talented descendant of the Golden-Eyed Demon Lord, the Howling Demon King almost completely inherited the Golden-Eyed Demon Lord's bloodline power, making him far stronger than ordinary top-grade demon kings. Unfortunately, he encountered Song Changsheng, and even though he had used all his strength, the giant hand was still falling at an extremely even speed.

He could clearly feel his body sinking lower and lower, his bones cracking under the strain. He desperately mobilized the power of his bloodline, channeling it all into his arms for this fight.

Unfortunately, it was all in vain.

"boom!"

With a muffled thud, the massive demon king body of Xiaotian Demon King was completely slammed into the remaining lower half of Lingfeng Mountain by Song Changsheng's palm. All the bones involved in the fight cracked at this moment, and the forelimbs were even broken off.

Unable to withstand the weight, Lingfeng collapsed with a roar after several huge cracks appeared, sending up clouds of dust hundreds of feet high.

"Roar--"

The heavily wounded Howling Demon King broke through the dust and transformed into a golden light, fleeing at top speed towards the direction of the Golden-Eyed Demon Lord.

The next moment, he crashed headfirst into the spatial blockade that Song Changsheng had set up in advance, making him dizzy and disoriented.

Looking at the flawless spatial blockade, only one word came to the mind of the Howling Sky Demon King: "A net of heaven and earth".

It was obvious that his previous plea for help had been intercepted; the other party had come prepared.

The more this happened, the calmer he became. He asked in a deep voice, "Who exactly are you? Hiding like this, do you only dare to launch sneak attacks?"

The void above the ruins rippled like water, and Song Changsheng's figure slowly emerged from it. He looked down at the Howling Demon King with a disdainful expression: "I have been here for a long time, and you did not notice at all. It seems that you have overestimated you."

This was their first encounter, but Song Changsheng, as the top figure on the Golden-Eyed Demon Kingdom's kill list, had a distinctive appearance that was deeply ingrained in people's minds. Therefore, the Howling Demon King recognized him at a glance and said with disbelief, "It's you? How is that possible? How dare you?"

Song Changsheng is very powerful. Even his revered ancestor, the Golden-Eyed Demon Lord, personally acknowledged this, regarding him as a major threat to the Golden-Eyed Demon Kingdom and even the entire Demon Realm. The task assigned to him was to eliminate him at all costs during the final offensive.

But to his utter surprise, before they could launch their final attack, Song Changsheng came alone and stormed into their territory, showing no regard for them whatsoever!
"What do I have to be afraid of? I allow you to infiltrate the Nine Realms of the Southwest, but I don't allow myself to hunt you down?" Song Changsheng's tone was as calm as still water.

Previously, the six major demon kingdoms carried out a large-scale infiltration plan, and many demon kings infiltrated the Southwest Nine Realms. The cleanup operation also caused them considerable losses.

He'd been holding a grudge about this for a long time, and now he could finally get some retribution.

"Arrogant! This is the heartland of my demon kingdom. Once Your Majesty makes a move, you will surely die!"

"Since I dared to come, I am naturally not afraid of his golden eyes!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Song Changsheng raised his hand, and endless lightning power gathered in his palm, condensing into a ten-foot-long lightning spear, which instantly crossed the void and pierced towards the head of the Howling Demon King.

"Roar--"

The Demon King of Howling Sky's golden eyes flashed with dazzling golden light, and all his boundless demonic energy was mobilized, condensing into a thick, diamond-shaped golden shield in front of him.

"Click"

To his astonishment, the golden shield that had been formed was instantly pierced by the thunderous spear.

"Cough cough cough."

With his supernatural powers broken, the Howling Sky Demon King suffered a backlash and coughed up blood. His already severely injured body could no longer hold on, and he collapsed to his knees, kicking up a cloud of dust.

The two sides are not even on the same level of power. The gap between them is as wide as an insurmountable chasm. The Golden-Eyed Demon Tiger bloodline that the Howling Demon King is so proud of is only in the middle to upper range among the demon race. If it were a top-tier bloodline, it might be able to compete with Song Changsheng, but he is far too weak.

"The Realm of Dao Principles, open!"

Song Changsheng's eyes suddenly turned black and white, and the yin and yang energies flowed down from top to bottom like a waterfall, forming a pure black and white world.

The Howling Sky Demon King was trapped within it, with the Yin and Yang energies forming shackles that firmly bound him in mid-air.

Shock, anger, fear...

A profound sense of powerlessness nearly overwhelmed him; he could hardly imagine what kind of opponent he was facing.

Is this human before me truly not a Nascent Soul True Monarch?

He couldn't help but want to look up at the sky, to see if the ancient oath of divine punishment would descend to punish this human race that had violated the rules of heaven.

Unfortunately, when he looked up, all he saw was a chaotic black and white.

"So you can feel fear too."

You have unleashed wave after wave of beast tides, and even the vast and turbulent Canglan River could not stop your bloodthirsty ambitions. Countless human cultivators have died as a result.

Although the chaotic ancient times are long gone, the oath of peace remains, but you are not satisfied with this and are always ready to start a war.

Since you crave war, then we will grant you war! Today, we will use your head to console the souls of those who have died because of you over the years!

Song Changsheng's voice was very soft, but every word he uttered was sharper than a steel knife.

"The law of the jungle has always been true. I accept my defeat today because of you."

"But don't be too happy yet. Without the ancient alliance, you are nothing. The Lord will surely break the alliance and avenge me!" The Howling Sky Demon King roared fiercely, his face contorted with rage, but the more he roared, the more he could not hide the fear in his heart, and instead appeared somewhat hysterical. "Is that so? I will be waiting for him in the southwest. If he has the ability, then we'll meet on the battlefield."

"Of course, you won't live to see that day!" A cold glint flashed in Song Changsheng's eyes, and with a flick of his finger, a sharp sword aura burst forth, piercing directly through the head of the Howling Demon King and annihilating his soul.

They then directly severed his enormous tiger head and dug out a golden core that was even larger than a fist.

As the most valued descendant of the Golden-Eyed Demon Lord, his death would surely be felt by the Golden-Eyed Demon Lord.

With a flick of his sleeve, he collected the tiger's body and the array flags, then fled at top speed toward the direction of the Canglan River. However, he did not use spatial teleportation.

Moreover, he wasn't really trying to escape. Firstly, he hadn't yet met the Golden-Eyed Demon Lord, and secondly, he wanted to earn some more interest.

Along his planned retreat route, near the Canglan River, lies the territory of a high-ranking demon king, which he can conveniently eliminate.

The Golden-Eyed Demon Kingdom is vast, and he possesses the [Chengyuan Sword] to conceal the secrets of heaven. It would take the Golden-Eyed Demon Lord at least a few quarters of an hour to find him, which would be more than enough for him.

Even a top-grade demon king couldn't last more than a few moves against Song Changsheng, let alone a high-grade demon king. While still in seclusion, Song Changsheng wiped it off the map along with its spiritual peak with a single strike of "Palm of Heaven and Earth".

As soon as he finished doing all this, he felt a violent fluctuation in the space above him.

A towering figure with white hair and golden eyes tore through space and arrived, his boundless demonic energy surging wildly within him. The surrounding spatial barriers began to tremble violently, and the sky that had just broken into dawn seemed to darken again. The aura of world destruction made people tremble. Song Changsheng felt the temperature of the surrounding environment dropping rapidly.

"They came so fast, and without any warning. It seems that the death of the Howling Demon King really provoked him."

Having achieved his goal, Song Changsheng activated his spatial power and began his rapid escape.

Looking at the mess below, the Golden-Eyed Demon Lord's anger had reached its peak, and his killing intent was boundless.

Again and again, this is the fourth time!
Last time, Song Changsheng kidnapped the Fiery Demon King right in front of him, and this time he single-handedly killed his most valued descendant and the White Phoenix Demon King. He had never seen such an audacious human cultivator.

"Are you truly not afraid of death?"

The Golden-Eyed Demon Lord's eyes flashed with a cold light. In the blink of an eye, he traversed thousands of miles to block Song Changsheng's escape route, channeling his demonic energy and unleashing a terrifying tiger's roar.

"Roar--"

A ferocious tiger-faced phantom appeared on his face, and the tiger's roar sound waves were extremely penetrating, shattering large sections of the spatial barrier wherever they passed.

The sound waves spread extremely fast, and unless he used spatial teleportation, Song Changsheng, who was right in the center, had absolutely no way to avoid them.

"Great Divine Power [World-Destroying Millstone]"

A Tai Chi symbol appeared above his head and below his feet. The two Tai Chi symbols merged into one in the air, transforming into a giant Yin-Yang millstone that rumbled and crushed forward.

The [World-Destroying Millstone] collided with the Tiger Roar sound wave, and shattered after only a moment. Song Changsheng felt a sweet taste in his throat, and almost spat out a mouthful of blood, but he forced it back. He then flipped his hand and summoned the [Tai Chi Bagua Diagram] to block in front of him.

The instant the sound waves collided, Song Changsheng gritted his teeth and unleashed his full power of law, veins bulging on his forehead, as the power of the [Tai Chi Bagua Diagram] was fully unleashed for the first time.

Even so, some aftershocks still penetrated the Tai Chi Bagua diagram, and every cell in Song Changsheng's body trembled violently under the impact of the sound waves.

Broken and reassembled, in an endless cycle, the abnormal regenerative power of the [Star Bloodline] forcefully offset it.

The Golden-Eyed Demon Lord hadn't expected that his all-out attack in his furious state would fail to harm this audacious human.

He already possesses such strength before even breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage; what would he be like if he did?

"Death!"

Without much thought, the Golden-Eyed Demon Lord once again circulated the demonic energy within his body. Just as he was about to nip Song Changsheng, this potential threat, in the bud, a thunderclap suddenly resounded in the sky, and boundless dark clouds rapidly gathered, turning everything in sight black.

"Heavenly Tribulation?"

The Golden-Eyed Demon Lord's expression changed drastically. After only a moment's hesitation, he made up his mind: even if he had to withstand the heavenly tribulation, he could not let this major threat go!

"Roar--"

A colossal white tiger phantom appeared behind him, its feet treading on the void, its expression arrogant, and every hair on its body radiating a powerful aura.

"Supernatural power and appearance?"

Song Changsheng was greatly shocked. Unless he used the Heavenly Dao Tree to fight against it, he would have no way to resist.

"It's time to get out of here."

With this thought in mind, Song Changsheng decisively used spatial teleportation, instantly passing over the Golden-Eyed Demon Lord and appearing above the Canglan River. In order to confuse the other party, he deliberately pretended to be exhausted, as if this teleportation had exhausted all his strength.

"Space travel?"

This move by him was something the Golden-Eyed Demon Lord had not anticipated. Only then did he realize that Song Changsheng had such audacity to venture deep into the Demon Realm because he had something to rely on.

Seeing that his opponent was exhausted, he was unwilling to let go of this rare opportunity and was preparing to press his advantage when a clap of thunder in the sky pulled him back to reality, and his heart skipped a beat.

He was about to be targeted by the heavenly tribulation.

Feeling the terrifying power of the heavenly tribulation, even though he was unwilling, he could only flee to his lair as fast as possible, where he would have a chance to avoid the tribulation.

Just as he arrived at the lair, a bolt of crimson lightning crashed down from the clouds of tribulation, striking his back and instantly tearing his skin and leaving it charred.

"Roar--"

A long howl, containing the pain of enduring the heavenly tribulation and boundless rage, made all living beings in the Golden-Eyed Demon Kingdom tremble in fear.

Because he acted quickly and escaped decisively, he was not completely targeted by the subsequent tribulation. After using the secret technique to shield the heavenly secrets, the tribulation lost its target and gradually dissipated. However, the Golden-Eyed Demon Lord paid a heavy price for violating the rules.

The commotion was so great that almost all the surrounding demon kingdoms sensed it, and the various demon lords immediately sent envoys to find out what was going on. However, the Golden-Eyed Demon Lord, who was in a state of weakness and anger, sent them all away.

No one knew that all of this was thanks to a human cultivator who hadn't even broken through to the Nascent Soul stage...
