Family Cultivation: Evergreen of the Song Family

Above the azure sea, five-colored lightning bolts crisscrossed with astonishing force. Thunder Elephant True Lord, holding the [Mysterious Dragon Sweeping the Sea Banner], fought against many opponents without being at a disadvantage, displaying the same style as the Mysterious Thunder True Lord who once dominated the East Sea.

Unfortunately, he has been gone for too long, and the sea creatures have long forgotten that tragedy filled with blood and tears.

When the emperor does not appear, Xuan Lei is invincible; this is a true reflection of that era.

Unfortunately.

He was too strong-willed and too arrogant. When he was undergoing the Heavenly Tribulation of Thunder, he actually tried to touch the authority of the Heavenly Dao, to take control of the Thunder Dao, and to act as the Heavenly Emperor in charge of thunder. In the end, he died under the Thunder Dao that he had pursued all his life.

If it weren't for this, the Myriad Palaces might have already joined the ranks of the world's top powers.

Fortunately, ten thousand years later, the Myriad Manifestations Palace produced a second Ancestor of Xuanlei, and a descendant who looked remarkably like him.

"The sea creatures are cowards who are afraid to risk their lives for important matters, but will risk their lives for small gains. No wonder they can only hide in the distant sea. They are really getting worse as they live. Based on this alone, they are far inferior to the demon race."

"No matter how many rats there are, they're still rats. Bring on whatever tricks you have up your sleeve! Today, I'll fight you to the bitter end!"

Lei Xiang Zhenjun was bathed in the fierce thunderstorm, his jet-black [Xuanlong Sweeping the Sea Banner] fluttering in the wind. As the banner stretched out, it seemed to crackle like thunder. Even when facing five sea demon lords at the same time, he was not afraid at all.

"The Four Seas are the peaceful abode of the sea races, and the distant seas are where the imperial court resides. We will not tolerate your human race's insolence!" A sea race demon lord spoke in a cold and stern tone, his eyes reflecting fierce lightning, his aura as heavy as a mountain and as vast as the ocean.

"What a joke! When we were wiping out the sea creatures in the distant seas, why didn't you stand up for them? Now you're all so righteous and awe-inspiring, humph!"

"boom--"

Five-colored divine thunder roared behind Thunder Elephant True Lord, causing the azure sea to churn and rise with a thousand towering waves...

High above, the Xuanlei Ancestor stood facing a young man with an eerie appearance, riding the wind and clouds, the scene surprisingly calm.

An invisible north wind flowed slowly beneath their feet, the power of laws gathered silently, and killing intent quietly permeated the air.

The tension between the two caused the surrounding space to tremble slightly. If they were to actually fight, even the spatial barrier above the nine heavens would probably be unable to withstand it.

"Fellow Daoist, shall we continue this fight?"

If we were to fight, the East Sea would be in turmoil. I do not wish to disturb the one in your imperial court. Perhaps we should call it quits?"

As the ruins of the Treasure Bottle Sect disappeared again with the passing of the thunderstorm, Ancestor Xuanlei was finally relieved. Although the obvious treasures in the ruins had been almost completely looted, the details had not yet been thoroughly explored.

He took the [Mysterious Heaven Mirror], which is the key to maintaining the operation of the ruins. Without it, the ruins can no longer manifest in the East Sea with the thunderstorm, so there is no need to worry about the sea creatures taking advantage of them.

As long as you have the [Mysterious Heaven Mirror], you will always have a chance to enter the ruins again.

Having exchanged a single move, he had already figured out his opponent's strengths and weaknesses.

To be honest, as a spirit of a weapon, he was indeed no match for the Demon Emperor among those of the same realm. However, with the [Mysterious Thunder Sky-Piercing Spear] and the [Mysterious Heaven Secret Mirror] in hand, even if they fought for several days and nights, turning the East Sea upside down, they would still be unable to determine a winner.

Unless it's a life-or-death battle, there's no point in them fighting each other.

"I can't do anything to you in the short term, but as long as you stay here, the other two might not be able to hold out." The strange young man said calmly, as if he had already won the battle.

"Is that so?" Ancestor Xuan Lei said calmly, showing no concern for the safety of Lei Kanze, Song Changsheng, and the others.

Although Lei Kanze had only recently reached the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage, he had already comprehended the [Heavenly Thunder Great Dao] with the tribulation energy and was about to touch the threshold of the Divine Transformation stage. Of the five demon lords who participated in the siege, only one was a fifth-order top-grade demon lord, and the rest were not worth fearing.

As for Song Changsheng...

The situation did seem rather perilous, but when he thought of his immeasurable Dao Tree that reached the heavens and the earth, Ancestor Xuanlei felt relieved. If he couldn't even withstand this little bit of wind and rain, how could he talk about stepping into the immeasurable realm?

……

"A fifth-tier celestial warship possesses the ability to travel through space, but the foundation of this warship is already rotten and lacks the ability to withstand risks. If those two catch up, I may not be able to protect you."

"You should proceed ahead and head straight for the border without any delay. If your speed is affected, you may abandon the Sea Emperor. If necessary, even your own celestial warship can be abandoned. Your safety is paramount," Song Changsheng solemnly instructed.

"Please rest assured, Elder, we will certainly not be a burden to you," Baili Yuntu replied respectfully.

"Go." Song Changsheng patted the side of the ship, as if giving the celestial vessel a push, making it speed up a bit. After watching the celestial vessel leave, a fierce glint appeared in his eyes.

He could sense that two powerful figures were rapidly approaching.

"Great Divine Power [One Finger to Dust]"

Spatial power burst forth from his fingertips, like a cold current sweeping across the surface of water. The spatial passage froze at a visible speed, as if even time itself had stopped flowing. When everything returned to stillness, Song Changsheng clenched his five fingers, and the Dao flower of the Great Dao of Power bloomed in his Niwan Palace.

"boom--"

With a single punch, the spatial passage shattered, and spatial turbulence erupted instantly, sweeping Song Changsheng and the two demon lords pursuing him into the boundless void.

This sudden turn of events caught them completely off guard.

Although a Nascent Soul True Monarch can traverse the boundless void, returning to the Purple Imperial Realm is no easy task without pre-set spatial coordinates. If one wanders in the boundless void for too long, one will be severely injured, even if one does not die.

Such extreme measures as destroying spatial passages are rarely used, and they never expected that they would encounter such a madman in this battle!
"Om..."

The boundless void trembled, and the dazzling light dispelled the cold and darkness.

Behind Song Changsheng, the Boundless Dao Tree was rooted in the void. No matter how the spatial turbulence swept through, he stood as firm and unmoved as a mountain.

In contrast, the two Sea Clan True Monarchs were swept away and disappeared by the spatial turbulence. If they hadn't made prior preparations, they probably wouldn't have made it to the battle.

The Boundless Dao Tree behind Song Changsheng acted like a stabilizing needle, firmly fixing the space beside him. Only after the spatial turbulence subsided somewhat were he able to return to the turbulent sea.

Looking at this somewhat unfamiliar sea, he did some calculations and breathed a sigh of relief, saying, "The location deviation isn't too far off. Yuechan and the others should have escaped danger by now. I wonder how the battle between Ancestor and Fellow Daoist Leixiang is going."

Just then, the airspace above suddenly twisted violently, and a fierce aura descended from the sky. Affected by this, the seawater formed a whirlpool with a diameter of over a thousand feet. Song Changsheng was in the very center of the whirlpool, as if he were stuck in a quagmire, and found it difficult to move.

"Boundless Supernatural Powers [Boundless Reality and Illusion]"

With a flick of his sword finger, the golden runes on the surface of the Yin-Yang Dao Fruit on the canopy of the Boundless Dao Tree in the Niwan Palace flickered for a moment. The Yin and Yang energies transformed into a Taiji diagram beneath his feet, forming a Dao domain that was both real and illusory.

This is one of the auxiliary supernatural abilities in the cultivation method he obtained after condensing the Dao Fruit runes, and it deeply understands the mysteries of Yin and Yang.

"boom--"

An invisible force of law burst forth from the sky, seemingly possessing the power to crush everything. Song Changsheng stood within the domain of the Great Dao formed by the divine power, yet he neither dodged nor evaded.

The power of the law passed directly through his chest without causing any effect, as if it had passed through a phantom.

"This..." The Demon Lord Canglang's eyes widened. He could clearly sense that Song Changsheng stood there without moving an inch, yet his divine power had not caused him any damage. He had never seen such a profound divine power in his entire life.

"Canglang, you failed to seize such a good opportunity. You're really getting worse as you get older," said the Cloud-Turning Demon Lord, appearing on the clouds in an icy tone.

Song Changsheng frowned slightly: "They actually escaped from the boundless void so quickly. It seems they came prepared. A low-grade demon lord and a mid-grade demon lord, they really think highly of me."

The current situation is extremely unfavorable for him.

Since merging with that broken sword, the Chengyuan Sword has been placed in the family ancestral hall to absorb the power of fortune and enhance its strength. Lacking this supreme weapon, he was at a slight disadvantage when facing these two powerful enemies.

Running away isn't very realistic either. Right now, they're on an expedition in the waters where the nearshore and offshore waters meet. Considering the timeline, they've only just begun to set up operations. If they were to turn their guns on them there, things would get complicated.

They must be taught a profound lesson so that they dare not have any more improper thoughts.

"Easy for you to say! His supernatural abilities are strange. Let's all attack together!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Demon Lord of Canglang took the lead, and a bronze spear ten feet long appeared in his hand without anyone noticing.

The bronze spear moved like lightning, as swiftly as an arm, seemingly able to mobilize all the [Laws of Water] in the world to transform into a single spear, piercing through the void.

Unsurprisingly, the spear also pierced through Song Changsheng's body, but left no damage.

This is the mystery of this supernatural power: Yin is emptiness, and reality is Yang. As long as one is in this domain, one can freely switch between emptiness and reality.

This transformation affects not only his body, but also everything within this realm.

For example, that spear just now, after entering the domain, was transformed from solid to ethereal by him, so it naturally could not cause him any substantial damage, unless the other party's understanding of the Great Dao was far superior to his.

As long as his domain remains intact, he is virtually invincible.

The only pity is that with his current cultivation level, he is not yet able to unleash the full power of this divine ability, and the domain formed is only a thousand feet in diameter.

If it could be expanded dozens of times, it could cover the entire battlefield. Only when the enemy is in this area can they truly feel the terror of this divine power.

The Cloud-Turning Demon Lord, however, noticed something amiss: "What a strange divine power! Break his domain first!"

He flipped his hand and took out a strangely shaped conch shell, put it to his lips and blew on it. The entire ocean seemed to resonate with it, and invisible sound waves continuously impacted the area beneath Song Changsheng's feet from all directions.

The Demon Lord of the Vast Sea understood immediately, maneuvering his bronze spear to weave through the domain, regardless of whether it could actually harm Song Changsheng, his aim being to wear him down and disrupt him.

He didn't recognize this strange supernatural power, but he knew a fundamental truth: all supernatural powers consume energy, and the stronger the power, the greater the consumption. He refused to believe that Song Changsheng hadn't consumed any energy!
"The scope of the area is too small, so it is indeed easy to find flaws."

Song Changsheng shook his head inwardly, not particularly surprised. If the enemy could not be included in the domain, they would ultimately be forced to take the initiative and be attacked.

"Divine Power and Dharma Form, activate!"

"Boom..."

A 300-foot-tall Nascent Soul Dharma Image rose from the ground behind him, radiating dazzling spiritual light, with its eyes closed and its face majestic.

"Insanity!"

Upon seeing this, both the Cloud-Turning Demon Lord and the Azure Wave Demon Lord simultaneously revealed their true forms as demon lords.

The three giants stood facing each other by the sea, and the surrounding space was compressed and was already somewhat overwhelmed.

"boom"

The greatest truths are the simplest. Facing two powerful enemies, Song Changsheng's Nascent Soul Dharma Image simply threw a punch.

"clap clap"

This punch was as large as a mountain. Wherever the fist passed, the sea split into waves, and the spatial barrier emitted a violent explosion, twisting and shattering.

The two demon lords, Fanyun and Canglang, felt an invisible force squeezing them from the center, and the gravity below changed, as if it had increased a hundredfold in an instant. They felt as if they were carrying mountains on their backs, and their movements were extremely slow.

The Great Way of Power refers not to how much force a punch can generate, but to the power of heaven and earth!

"He's only at the early Nascent Soul stage, yet his power of the Great Dao is on par with mine." The Cloud-Turning Demon Lord was shaken to his core. Even counting back several hundred years, none of the moments he had spent fighting Song Changsheng had brought him such a shock.

"scoff"

The bronze spear flashed through the air like lightning, colliding head-on with the punch. Sparks flew, but after a brief stalemate, it flew back with a mournful cry.

"So powerful!" Canglang Demon Lord was shocked. This was a mid-grade law treasure, which his entire clan had refined for thousands of years, yet it could only delay this punch for a moment.

"boom--"

Blood and qi surged, and the universe trembled.

The two sea monster lords attacked simultaneously and managed to block the punch, but the sea creatures within a thousand miles were in deep trouble. The aftershocks of the battle turned the seawater crimson, and the number of dead and injured was probably in the tens of thousands.

The Demon Lord of Clouds' face twitched subtly, and he said in a deep voice, "Do you have the courage to go up and fight?"

"Why don't you dare!"

Song Changsheng stood on the left shoulder of the Nascent Soul Dharma Image and soared into the sky.

None of them are alone. Even mortal enemies need to abide by certain tacit agreements as long as they cannot be completely eliminated.

A look of surprise appeared in the eyes of both the Cloud-Turning Demon Lord and the Canglang Demon Lord, as if they hadn't expected Song Changsheng to agree so readily.

The two figures flashed and chased after it separately.

Just as they passed through the northerly wind layer, a huge, golden bell came crashing down on them.

"clang--"

The bell tolled like thunder, carrying with it an inescapable aura of bloodlust. The two felt dizzy and disoriented, as if something within them had been awakened.

At this moment, a menacing halberd appeared in Song Changsheng's hand, and he brought it down with the force to destroy a city...
