Family Cultivation: Evergreen of the Song Family

"The conditions are my bottom line, and I will absolutely not compromise."

When it comes to matters concerning the Blood Princess, Hun Wugui's attitude is surprisingly firm.

"can."

Song Changsheng remained silent for a moment, but ultimately chose to let bygones be bygones.

When the demons of the Ten Thousand Mountains invaded Luoxia City, Xue Ji stirred up trouble in the city, and Song Xiantu and others died indirectly as a result. This matter has always been a thorn in his heart.

But time is running out for him.

If we can't find those remnants of the Blood Demons, the sacrifices we'll have to make will only be greater.

At times like these, personal grudges between families or clans are simply not worth mentioning.

"When the Blood Demon Sect attacked Cangmang Peak and suffered a great defeat, the former sect leader Hun Sha took the opportunity to launch a coup and regain control of the Sacred Flame Token. I took advantage of this opportunity to capture Yunzhou Branch Leader Yu Fu and let Xue Ji replace her."

While gathering intelligence on the Blood Demon Cult, we were also preparing to completely eradicate this cancer. Unexpectedly, the Blood Demon Cult was destroyed by you not long after.

Although Soul Sha and the others entered the legendary forbidden land, her soul lamp did not go out, so I let Blood Princess continue to lie in wait.

As expected, Soul Fiend and Blood-Eyed Raven emerged alive, and they even found the [Miporamaran], gaining the support of the demon race to awaken the two slumbering guardians of the Blood Demon Cult.

"Guardian Envoy?" A sense of foreboding suddenly welled up in Song Changsheng's heart.

"That's right. Both of them were once Nascent Soul level experts. After being severely injured, they fell into a coma. The Blood Demon Sect has been hiding in the borderlands all these years in order to awaken them."

As soon as Blood Princess came into contact with these secrets, the Blood Demon Cult went into complete hibernation, and its previous hiding place was located at the border between Qi and Lu.

I was worried about Blood Princess's safety, so I decided to close the net ahead of schedule.

Unexpectedly, they received aid from the demon race, which prematurely awakened the Blood Gu and Blood Soul. I fought my way out of the encirclement and have been hiding from pursuers ever since.

During this period, the Blood Demon Cult launched a surprise attack on the cultivation world of Lu Kingdom.

Based on what I know about them, they are definitely collecting essence blood with the intention of using the Blood Refining Array to restore their cultivation.

They were already at the Nascent Soul stage; as long as their essence and blood supply was sufficient, there were no bottlenecks to speak of. They needed to plan ahead.

"What? Why didn't you say so sooner!" Wang Zaixing was filled with shock and anger. Those were two True Monarch level experts, yet they had wasted a whole month of their time.

Hun Wugui calmly said, "No one will believe me except him. Of course, I don't trust you either."

Furthermore, they have changed their hiding place, and I can only rely on the weak bloodline connection with Blood Princess to find them, which will also take time.

Song Changsheng reached out to stop the out-of-control Wang Zaixing and said in a deep voice, "Those two are far stronger than ordinary Golden Core cultivators at the Great Perfection stage. You are only at the early stage of Golden Core. How can you possibly survive against them?"

"That's another thing I want to talk about."

The Blood Demon Sect leader, Soul Sha, harbored ulterior motives and attempted to control the two. So, Blood Princess devised a plan to retrieve a fourth-tier [Calamity Gu] from the Gu Immortal Sect for her, helping her control Blood Soul.

Blood Princess is skilled in the art of Gu insects and secretly manipulated things, thus gaining control over them. It was her secret intervention that allowed me to escape.

So the only real enemy you need to face is the Blood Gu. Since the Blood Soul is controlled by two people at the same time, it can't cause any trouble.

Moreover, according to Soul Fiend's plan, she will first help Blood Soul recover his cultivation. For us, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

Upon hearing this, Wang Zaixing suddenly asked, "Since she can control it, why didn't she intervene when the Blood Demon Sect launched a surprise attack on the cultivation world of Lu?"

“That’s what I’m worried about too. Something might have happened to her.” Hun Wugui’s weathered face was full of worry.

If he hadn't been driven to desperation, he wouldn't have risked being besieged by righteous cultivators by using this method to meet Song Changsheng.

"Master, I don't think this demon's words are credible."

As a cultivator of the Demon Subduing Hall, Wang Zaixing had a natural wariness and even hatred towards people like Hun Wugui.

Song Changsheng was silent for a moment before asking, "Do you know where the Blood Demon Sect is currently hiding?"

"Real person!" Wang Zaixing's face immediately showed a hint of urgency.

"No need for further words." Song Changsheng reached out and silenced the rest of his words.

He has no choice now. Yi Tianzheng and others are in seclusion recuperating from their injuries in preparation for the final battle. Ji Shinian is stuck in the central region and unable to move. Longxiang Zhenjun is stationed at the front line and cannot get away.

This risk must be taken, and as soon as possible.

Seeing that he had agreed, Hun Wugui breathed a sigh of relief and quickly said, "Qingfeng Mountain in the northern part of the cultivation world of Lu Kingdom, the error will definitely not exceed five hundred miles."

"Lord Wang, there's no time to lose, let's go ahead."

Please inform the family for me. You don't need to worry about the rest. Just focus on carrying out the scorched-earth order. We need to prepare for the worst.

As soon as he finished speaking, Song Changsheng reached out and grabbed Hun Wugui's arm, disappearing into the spatial black hole that had appeared out of nowhere...

In the blink of an eye, he arrived at Qingfeng Mountain under the guidance of Hun Wugui.

Centered on the main peak, a vast divine sense, comparable to that of a Nascent Soul cultivator in the early stages, spread out in an overwhelming manner, searching the land beneath their feet inch by inch.

A discovery was made shortly afterward.

"Hmph, as expected, you're a stinking rat that can't stand in the light. After all these years, you still can't shake your habit of burrowing." A cold glint flashed in Song Changsheng's eyes. With a wave of his sleeve, he summoned four ten-foot-long iron pestles.

This is the spatial iron pestle that Yin Jue used to deal with him. Although it lost much of its spirituality in the battle, it still has considerable power and is most suitable for sealing off space and trapping the dog!
Just in case, he also brought out the 108 spatial array flags that he used to seal off space in his early years, and used spatial iron pestles to guard the four directions, weaving an airtight, invisible net that completely sealed off the area within a hundred miles.

"boom--"

The moment the spatial blockade took shape, more than a dozen figures burst out of the ground. They were all powerful demon kings. Their surging demonic energy enveloped the surrounding area and transformed into streaks of light that rushed toward the invisible dome in the sky.

Unfortunately, the spatial blockade was already in place. Even if a Nascent Soul True Monarch were to arrive, he could only be trapped for a short time. Not to mention these fourth-order demon kings, they were all left dizzy and disoriented from the impact.

"Song Changsheng!"

When the demons regained their senses and saw the appearance of the culprit, they were immediately horrified.

They never expected Song Changsheng to suddenly appear here. It had only been a few months since that battle. Although they didn't know Song Changsheng's exact condition after that battle, his injuries were definitely not minor, otherwise he wouldn't have kept his face hidden for so long.

He didn't even show up during such a major event as the fall of the cultivation world of Lu, which shows that he was seriously injured, definitely suffering a severe blow that damaged his very core.

Otherwise, they wouldn't dare to act so recklessly.

Logically speaking, an injury of this severity would certainly take several years or even decades to recover from.

But the person in front of him showed no signs of weakness whatsoever. He simply stood there quietly, and the surrounding space continued to fluctuate.

The fact that the aura emanating from their bodies could continuously affect the spatial barrier was something they had only ever seen in their own lord.

Has this person already reached such a level?
The thought immediately sent chills down their spines, but the demons quickly realized that if Song Changsheng had truly broken through to the Nascent Soul stage, it would actually be a good thing for them.

"You wicked demons and monsters have colluded and committed countless blood crimes. Today, we'll collect some interest from you!"

Song Changsheng didn't care what they thought. With a blink of his eyes, lightning surged, and the world changed color. "Great Divine Power [World in the Palm]!"

A slightly illusory palm rapidly expanded in the eyes of the demons, blotting out the sky and seemingly encompassing the entire world, casting a huge shadow that completely enveloped them.

The two lower-grade demon kings, whose cultivation was slightly weaker, were already finding it difficult to withstand the immense pressure released by this palm strike.

"How can he be so strong?"

As the saying goes, seeing is believing. They knew that Song Changsheng was very strong, and they were also aware of the brilliant achievements he had made.

However, human imagination has its limitations. In their view, no matter how strong they are, they are only Golden Core cultivators, not Nascent Soul cultivators. As long as they are united enough, numerous enough, and well-prepared, they have a chance of victory.

However, under this palm strike, all the confidence they had accumulated vanished instantly; the power far exceeded their imagination.

"Stop them!"

More than a dozen demon kings joined forces, giving their all to face Song Changsheng's palm strike at the same time.

A loud explosion rang out, followed by screams echoing through the air. More than a dozen demon kings were scattered and staggered by the powerful impact of the battle, looking extremely disheveled. Two low-grade demon kings even nearly fell headlong from the sky.

Compared to their disheveled state, Song Changsheng appeared much more composed, only taking a few steps backward in mid-air.

Without a doubt, he held a clear advantage in their first encounter.

Even Song Changsheng himself was somewhat surprised by this result. He subconsciously looked at his palm and thought to himself, "I didn't expect that my strength would improve again after comprehending the Great Dao of Life and Death."

Thinking of this, the last trace of doubt in his heart dissipated like smoke.

With a shudder, he absorbed almost all the surrounding laws and power.

"Great Divine Power [Thousand Shadows Mystery]"

His figure split in two in mid-air, then in four... until his number was equal to that of the demon kings present.

Based on the direction pointed out by Yi Tianzheng, and combined with his own insights over the years, he made targeted improvements to this supernatural power. As long as the number of clones he created remained within a certain range, these clones could maintain their strength, comparable to that of a Golden Core cultivator, for a full quarter of an hour.

A quarter of an hour is not a long time, but his true form was mixed in with the others, and the demons could not distinguish him at all, which gave him the opportunity to defeat them one by one.

Although doing so would result in a terrifying drain on his power, that is precisely his strength.

Having suffered a silent loss in their first encounter, the demons felt a chill run down their spines as they looked at the dozen or so identical, flawless figures in the sky.

Xuan Yu, the demon king who was the leader of the Fire Spirit Demon Kingdom, gritted his teeth and took out a glass lamp with a scarlet flame flickering under the lampshade.

The moment it appeared, all the demon kings belonging to the Fire Spirit Demon Kingdom felt their blood boiling and their auras rising rapidly.

"Give it your all and kill this fiend!" the Xuan Yu Demon King suddenly roared.

Upon hearing this, Thunder King, the leader of the Thunder Ze Demon Kingdom, also summoned a jet-black tortoise shell, with faint lightning crackling around it.

Song Changsheng's gaze narrowed slightly. The glass lamp was made with rather rough techniques, but its quality was extremely good. It was rumored that the Fire Spirit Demon Lord had taught herself the art of weapon crafting, and this was most likely her work.

Judging from its appearance, it should have an effect similar to that of human cultivators who burn their essence and blood to forcibly stimulate their own potential.

The tortoise shell showed no signs of crafting, yet it contained the power of the Great Dao. It was most likely the shed body of the Thunder Swamp Demon Lord when he broke through to the fifth rank, and its threat was still greater than that of the Glazed Lamp.

He currently lacks suitable magical artifacts, so dealing with them will likely require considerable effort.

What he lacks most right now is time.

Thinking of this, he tossed the last remaining [Void-Breaking Pearl] to Hun Wugui and said in a deep voice, "I can feel the power of that Blood Soul and Blood Gu is reviving. Take this and hurry to find Blood Princess and destroy the Blood Refining Array."

Upon receiving the instructions, Hun Wugui did not hesitate at all and followed the large hole in the ground, burrowing into the underground.

The Blood Demon Cult was extremely cautious. After relocating, they placed their lair thousands of feet underground. What appeared to be soft soil was actually incredibly hard bluestone. Ordinary attacks posed no threat; one had to venture deep underground to survive.

The Blood Refining Array, as the Blood Demon Sect's only hope for revival, is located even deeper and can also be isolated from divine sense.

Hun Wugui was completely in the dark and couldn't find his target at all. He could only try to find the location of Xue Ji by relying on his vague intuition.

The demon kings sent by the demon race to protect them were all engaged in fierce battles with Song Changsheng above, while the Blood Soul Venerable and the Blood Gu Venerable were racing against time to recover their cultivation. None of the remaining people were a match for Hun Wugui, and they moved through this huge underground labyrinth as if it were empty.

Blood Princess also sensed his presence, swiftly killing the watchers around her, and reuniting with Soulless at top speed.

When the brother and sister met, the huge weight that had been hanging over their hearts was immediately lifted.

Where is the Soul Demon?

"I don't know. Last time I helped you, it aroused her suspicion, and she sent people to monitor me. Since then, my activities have been restricted, and I haven't seen her since."

Hun Wugui said urgently, "Have Xue Hun destroy the Blood Refining Array, quickly!"

To his surprise, Blood Princess refused outright.

"why?"

Blood Princess quickly explained, "There is more than one Blood Refining Array. In order to improve efficiency, two separate arrays have been set up."

Soul Fiend is definitely with Blood Soul right now. If I make a move, Soul Fiend will try to take control of me, and I won't be able to stop Blood Gu at all.

The only way forward is to restore the Blood Soul's cultivation so that we can have a chance to fight against the Blood Gu.

Blood Soul receives more resources and recovers faster; given just one chance, it could destroy this place.

Upon hearing this, Hun Wugui understood his current predicament.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Go up and inform Master Zixu, and tell him to prepare himself mentally."

I'm going to find Soul Fiend. Once I kill her, no one can challenge your control!

"It's too dangerous, I disagree."

Hun Wugui met her gaze and said in a serious tone, "Listen, we are atoning for our past actions, even if it means dying together."

"Master Zixu will guarantee your safety. If I die, you should leave this place of trouble and find somewhere to start a new life."

As soon as he finished speaking, he transformed into a golden ray of light and shot straight into the ground.

Watching his resolute back, Blood Princess gritted her teeth, turned around, and returned to the ground.

The battle in the air has now reached a fever pitch, and Song Changsheng has already killed four demon kings.

Even so, the other demon kings still desperately entangled him.

At the same time, powerful figures from both the human and demon races were rushing to the scene as quickly as possible.

No one expected the final battle to unfold so suddenly...
