Family Cultivation: Evergreen of the Song Family

"Is the Thunder King's Palace really that terrifying?" Master Huiyin asked unwillingly.

"The Thunder King Palace is just a pawn, nothing more than scheming and doing shady things behind the scenes. The truly terrifying ones are the people behind them," Lingyin Zhenren said quietly.

"Are you saying they have other supporters behind them?"

"The Thunder King Palace was active in the Tianqin cultivation world five hundred years ago. They kept mortals in captivity and carried out assassinations and infiltrations. Later, because they went too far, they were discovered by a True Person from Thousand Voices Valley. Finally, the two sects joined forces and were able to eradicate them completely."

At that time, no one took this matter seriously, thinking it was just a common heresy.

But do you remember that when Zhuang Xiaoyou's master, Daoist Mingxia, came to discuss the Dao with Huayin, he mentioned that the Thunder King Palace had made some big moves in the four border regions?

That battle brought together most of the top experts from the four major cultivation worlds, annihilating a large number of the enemy's elite forces. Since then, the Thunder King Palace has disappeared from the four realms.

After that, I contacted other fellow cultivators in the cultivation world and found that there were evil cultivators in the Jade Dragon Cultivation World, the Great Ming Cultivation World, and the Great Xiao Immortal Dynasty who were waving the banner of the Thunder King Palace.

Now, the Thunder King Palace has reappeared in the Tianqin cultivation world, and it is suspected to be related to Huayin's death.

With such a wide distribution, how could they be an ordinary force? I just don't know what these people are up to.

Logically speaking, if they had simply integrated these forces, they would have been more than capable of dominating an entire realm. However, they did not do so. Even when they destroyed the Thunder King Palace, the Thunder King Palace followers in other cultivation realms remained bystanders.

"Strange, truly strange." Master Lingyin slowly shook his head.

Upon hearing this, Master Huiyin said softly, "The thinking of heretical cultivators cannot be judged by common sense."

If they are not subordinate to each other, then wouldn't it be possible to resolve this crisis simply by finding and eradicating these evil forces?

"I'm afraid it's difficult. Our sect's strength has been greatly reduced, Thousand Voice Valley is eyeing us covetously, and the Thunder King Palace's strength is unknown. Right now, we are the weaker party."

"You still suspect that Thousand Sound Valley and Thunder King Palace are colluding with each other? But Xiao Sheng and Qing Yin died at the hands of the same person."

Lingyin Zhenren glanced at him and said, "You saw it with your own eyes?"

"This..." Master Huiyin was speechless for a moment.

"Xiao Sheng's body has not been found yet. Although Qian Sheng Valley has announced his death, they insist that it was my sect that did it. Who knows what the truth is?"
Furthermore, their consistent refusal to allow Yuxiao to confront the situation or explain their motives only further proves that they have something to hide.

The current Qingyin Zhenren dares not blindly trust anyone; if she takes one wrong step, Miaoyin Pavilion will be doomed.

A sudden thought flashed through Huiyin Zhenren's mind: "Since the Thunder King Palace's activities are so rampant, could we ask the Myriad Manifestations Palace for assistance? After all, this no longer falls under the category of local conflicts."

"I've already contacted Sword Heart Immortal using the Myriad Manifestations Token, but her reply was that I should try my best, but not have too much hope in the short term," Spirit Sound Immortal said in a hoarse voice.

"How could this be?"

According to Master Kenshin, the problem is a lack of manpower.

The Vientiane Palace has been preparing for a major event in recent years, which has involved a lot of people.

In addition, the sea creatures of the East Sea have been frequently invading, and the royal family of the Merfolk is coordinating its forces, showing signs of a large-scale counterattack. The Myriad Elephant Palace has deployed heavy troops in the East Sea, and even the Dragon Elephant True Lord has personally gone to the East Sea to oversee the operation.

Furthermore, before us, seven other cultivators had already applied to the Myriad Manifestations Palace for assistance, all of whom were inextricably linked to evil forces. True Master Jianxin bluntly stated that they would not be able to spare any manpower to assist us for at least ten years.

However, Master Jianxin also promised that he would request a protector to personally investigate. Once the truth is revealed, he would coordinate a joint operation with the righteous forces of the surrounding cultivation world to carry out a major purge.

"This is a good thing." Master Huiyin breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Wanxiang Palace was willing to get involved.

The righteous path is the true master of the human cultivation world, but most of the time they are fighting their own battles. As long as someone can coordinate the power of all the cultivation worlds, all evil and heretical paths will be crushed to pieces.

Lingyin Zhenren did not answer, but looked at Zhuang Yuechan in the stele forest and said, "After Zhuang Yuechan breaks through to the fourth level of the Sound Law, you should give that thing to her, and then send her away as soon as possible. Don't stay in the Tianqin cultivation world for too long."

"As ordered."

……

This grand ensemble lasted for a whole year, and Zhuang Yuechan descended as gently as a feather, lifted by the lingering melody.

In two years, her entire demeanor underwent a dramatic transformation.

"Music is everywhere. The wind blows and the rain falls, the insects and birds sing. All the sounds of nature are part of music. The focus is on 'sound', not the instruments used. The zither, flute, xiao and xun are essentially no different."

"So this is the true way of music." Zhuang Yuechan murmured softly, slowly opening her eyes as if she saw a grand road unfolding before her.

She stood up and bowed respectfully to the surrounding stone tablets. Her gains this time were truly immense.

Not only did he become a fourth-order pitch lawyer, but his major, [True Meaning of Pitch], also successfully advanced to [Laws of Pitch].

Now that she has perfected all five elements and successfully comprehended the laws, she is ready in every way, only lacking an opportunity to break through to the Golden Core stage in seclusion.

However, the understanding of the laws is crucial to the quality of the Golden Elixir, and further refinement is needed.

"Congratulations on your further progress, young friend. You have broken through to the fourth level of the Sound Law at such a young age, which is far superior to mine." Master Huiyin, whose face looked slightly haggard, slowly walked into the Stele Forest Road.

"Yuechan pays her respects to the True Immortal. If it weren't for the precious land provided by your esteemed sect, Yuechan's progress would not have been so smooth," Zhuang Yuechan said modestly.

"You risked your life to deliver a message to my sect. Everyone in Miaoyin Pavilion owes you a favor. This mere secret realm is nothing to worry about," said Master Huiyin, shaking her head slightly.

Seeing the haggard look on Huiyin Zhenren's face, Zhuang Yuechan couldn't help but ask, "May I ask if there has been any result regarding the murderer who killed Qingyin Zhenren?"

Master Huiyin glanced at her and said, "It's most likely the work of the Thunder King Palace."

"Thunder King Palace?" Zhuang Yuechan was startled. Although she was still asleep during the Tianniu Mountain battle, she was very familiar with what they had done.

But weren't they already uprooted from the cultivation world of the Great Qi?

Could it be someone with the same name?
"That's right, it's the Thunder King Palace you're thinking of. This force is not simple, so you should be more careful in the future."

Oh, and there's something else you probably don't know. Your senior uncle, Zhan Tianxia, ​​recently broke through to the Golden Core stage, roughly shortly after you entered the secret realm. He refined heavenly lightning for his own use, which caused quite a stir at the time.

"Martial Aunt has broken through!" A look of surprise flashed across Zhuang Yuechan's face. This was the thing she had been thinking about the most during this time, and receiving the confirmation was a relief. Of the three city lords of Luoxia City, the eldest city lord was in seclusion most of the year, while the third city lord was rarely seen. Zhan Tianxia handled all the affairs, big and small, inside and outside the city, including the cultivation and daily life of Zhuang Yuechan and the others.

He is not only a senior apprentice or senior master, but also shoulders the responsibility of a master.

Although he was short-tempered and strict, he was also very protective of his own, so all his disciples respected and loved him, which was the result they had always hoped for.

In the resource-scarce cultivation world of the Great Qi, having two Golden Core cultivators in one family is considered a miracle.

"I should have kept you here to show you proper hospitality, but as you know, the current situation in the Tianqin cultivation world is not suitable for you to stay any longer. This item was personally given to you by my master as a farewell gift for you."

As she spoke, Master Huiyin took out a seemingly ordinary jade slip and handed it to Zhuang Yuechan.

The jade slip was plain in appearance, and the other party gave it to her casually, so Zhuang Yuechan didn't pay too much attention to it. She simply accepted it respectfully and said, "Thank you for your generous gift, Master."

"Young friend, please leave as soon as possible. If you survive this ordeal, Miaoyin Pavilion will still exist. When you and your spouse come again, we will certainly treat you well."

Upon hearing this, Zhuang Yuechan's heart sank. The Tianqin cultivation world was originally one of the few peaceful places in the world, but she never expected it to have fallen to this state, with even the ancient sects facing the danger of collapse at any moment...

Leaving the Miaoyin Pavilion and traveling within the Tianqin cultivation world, the once bustling and prosperous ancient city had been placed under martial law due to the great war between the two sects. Outside, chaos reigned, with disciples of the two sects locked in fierce battles or rogue cultivators taking advantage of the situation to cause trouble.

"I hope that when I return from the Great Zhen Immortal Dynasty, all of this will end, and the world's music can finally find a peaceful place to cultivate." Zhuang Yuechan sighed softly, riding the wind towards the Jade Dragon Cultivation Realm...

Time stands still in the mountains; those who cultivate themselves know no years.

In the blink of an eye, four years have passed.

"call……"

Song Changsheng, who had been sitting cross-legged like a sculpture for years, slowly opened his eyes, exhaled a deep breath, and looked utterly exhausted.

As he opened his eyes, the world of laws he had meticulously constructed over the years shattered like glass. He immediately felt as if a mountain had been lifted from his sea of ​​consciousness, and he felt an unprecedented sense of ease.

In fact, the effects of the Enlightenment Pill were exhausted a year ago. At that time, the evolution of the Law World had only progressed to one-third of its previous stage. For the remaining year, he had been forcibly pushing forward the evolution based on his own understanding.

The cost of forcibly pushing evolution is several times that of before, especially after the number of evolutionary laws increased, the cost can only be described as terrifying.

In other words, Song Changsheng had a solid foundation, and after breaking through to the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm, his spiritual power was further enhanced. Being able to forcefully push the evolution for a year was something that ordinary people could not achieve.

However, such persistence is meaningless. The consumption is several times greater, but the gains are far less than before. The sea of ​​consciousness is also under tremendous pressure and may collapse at any time.

The best outcome is to end it all proactively.

Moreover, with this experience, there will be opportunities to restructure based on the current foundation in the future.

However, it will be difficult to have such an opportunity again next time.

Although it is not recorded in ancient books, this kind of elixir is said to have miraculous effects, and it usually only works on the first use.

Of course, it's highly unlikely that anyone would be so extravagant as to take two pills by themselves.

This enlightenment saved him at least several hundred years of hard work in comprehending the laws.

Among them, the [Yin-Yang Law], [Life Law], [Thunder Law], [Five Elements Law], [Power Law], and [Space Law] have all reached the Great Perfection realm, an achievement that many cultivators could not attain even after a lifetime of effort.

Among them, the Yin-Yang Law even vaguely touches upon the level of "Tao". Unfortunately, it is still a little short in terms of time, and he has not interfered much with the evolution of the world's laws. The Yin-Yang Law is not the main direction of evolution.

The greatest improvements were actually in the [Law of Space] and the [Law of Force].

Among them, the [Law of Power] can be described as changing three times a day, with an astonishingly large improvement, releasing all its potential.

Song Changsheng even felt that the [Law of Power] could be a major trump card for him in the academy's elimination rounds!

He stretched out his fingers and did a quick calculation, discovering that there was still a year and a half until the agreed-upon time with the Myriad Manifestations Palace. With the spatial teleportation array, there was no need to rush.

He waved to open the door to the secluded cultivation room and used his magic to summon all the jade slips on a shelf outside. These were important intelligence he had gathered during his seclusion from the Song Clan, the cultivation world of the Great Qi, and even the Fengyu Palace.

Every so often, someone would deliver something to his door so that he could stay informed about changes within the family and in the outside world and avoid becoming disconnected.

Song Changsheng quickly browsed through the mountain of jade slips and couldn't help but sigh, "The outside world has been truly fascinating these past few years of seclusion."

My uncle actually used heavenly lightning for his own purposes; what a bold move! But this path is not bad; I might try it sometime in the future if I have the chance.

The Righteous Qi Sect is the Haoran Alliance? No wonder they've disappeared from the Great Qi for years; they've gone off to wreak havoc on the cultivation world of the Lu Kingdom.

Hmm, Yuechan arrived in the Tianqin cultivation world six years ago?

Is the Thunder King Palace located in the Heavenly Lyre Cultivation Realm?
The 'Ming' generation has already been born! Time really flies. However, the 'Jing' generation is indeed much more proactive than the 'You' generation in terms of having children. Not bad at all.

It's a pity that there aren't any exceptionally talented members of the clan..."

It took Song Changsheng a full three hours to finish reading the mountain of intelligence.

Everything is progressing well in Daqi and Songshi, but the cultivation world is becoming increasingly chaotic, which makes him feel a sense of urgency.

"I hope to achieve a good ranking and gather all the main ingredients for refining the Golden Core as soon as possible, so that Yuechan and Xing'er can break through to the Golden Core stage and share some of the pressure," Song Changsheng murmured, putting down the jade slip in his hand.

He reached into his robes and took out the [Ten Absolute Body Refining Pill] and the dragon essence blood he had collected earlier. With the remaining time, he decided to further hone his physique!

Just as Song Changsheng was making his final sprint for the elimination rounds, a huge vortex of spiritual energy rapidly gathered above White Dragon Island in the East China Sea.

Feeling the same way, Song Qingxing and the other Purple Mansion cultivators went outside to watch.

Looking at the direction where the vortex was converging, Song Youlin exclaimed with delight, "Youfu must be about to break through!"
