Family Cultivation: Evergreen of the Song Family

Do you all think this news is true?

Inside the main hall of the Rakshasa Hall, several Golden Core cultivators gathered together, analyzing the intelligence provided by the evil servants one by one.

"The torture has been carried out, the soul has been searched, and all the necessary verification methods have been used."

The credibility is very high, and there is also evidence of a deal between the Blood Demon Cult and the Righteous Qi Sect. Regardless of whether it is an attempt to divert our attention, this information is likely true.

"I just didn't expect that these scoundrels from the Righteous Qi Sect would still dare to remain in the cultivation world of Lu Kingdom. Since all of you fellow Daoists are here today, why don't we go together and capture that wretch? That way, we can avoid another trouble." True Person Mingshe's tone was cold and stern.

Compared to the Blood Demon Sect and the Righteous Qi Sect, the threat posed to the cultivation world of Lu Kingdom is more significant.

This is the difference between having a Golden Core cultivator and not having one.

Golden Core cultivators are as swift as the wind, possess abundant magical power, and have extremely powerful supernatural abilities. They are practically walking human nuclear bombs. If they target low-level cultivators or publicly disclosed businesses, it would be almost impossible to retaliate without overwhelming strength.

Since escaping Lingmou's clutches, the Five Poisons Sect has been sleepless, and its forces have shrunk considerably in order to prevent retaliation.

Now that they have received news of the Spirit Eye, they naturally cannot let go of this rare opportunity.

“Fellow Daoist Mingshe is right. This is a major threat that must be eliminated.” Song Changsheng was the first to agree.

Both the Blood Demon Sect and the Haoran Alliance are enemies of the Song family and even the entire cultivation world of the Great Qi.

With a formidable enemy at hand, we must first secure our internal stability before we can fight off external threats.

The Blood Demon Cult has now been basically destroyed, and the Haoran Alliance is just a side project.

"Tian Sha has arrived at the former site of the Righteous Qi Sect to monitor it. At present, they have not made any special moves and should not know that they have been exposed."

To avoid any unforeseen complications, fellow Daoists, shall we set off now?

Based on the address provided by the evil slave, Song Changsheng and his companions arrived above the ruins of the former Zhengqi Sect.

Many years have passed since that great battle, and the place is still littered with the ravages of war.

Within a radius of a hundred miles, not a blade of grass grows.

In fact, this battle was started by Zhuang Yuechan. If it weren't for Zhang Yu's momentary evil thoughts, the Righteous Qi Sect wouldn't have been exposed so quickly.

After all, they are fundamentally different from the Blood Demons, making it much easier for them to hide.

When the group arrived, the Heavenly Killer Master, who had been stationed there for some time, hurriedly came to greet them.

"Greetings, Grandmaster Uncle, fellow Daoists."

"Fellow Daoist Tian Sha, has the Spirit Eye shown any unusual activity?" the Nether Serpent asked impatiently.

"Not yet. Their environment is relatively isolated, and they may not even know about the destruction of the Blood Demon Cult. Now is the perfect time to wipe them out in one fell swoop."

When he said this, Tian Sha Zhenren was full of confidence.

Including him, there are a total of five righteous Golden Core cultivators here. There is not only Shi Potian, who is at the Great Perfection of Golden Core, but also two late-stage Golden Core cultivators and Song Zixu, who won the championship in the Five Academies Grand Competition.

Let alone dealing with Lingmou, a late-stage Golden Core cultivator, even a Golden Core Perfection cultivator would only suffer defeat today.

"Fellow Daoists, to be on the safe side, let's set up a barrier to seal off the space first."

This time, we can't let any more slip through the net." As Tian Sha Zhenren spoke, he glanced at Ming She Zhenren, and his meaning was obvious.

Master Mingshe snorted coldly and said, "You should worry about yourself first."

"Fellow Daoist Zixu, your mastery of the [Spatial Laws] is unmatched by any of us. How about we have you take the lead?"

"Thank you for your kind regard, fellow Daoists. I will not refuse." Song Changsheng wanted to get rid of Lingmou more than anyone else, and now was not the time to refuse.

Letting Lingmou go would have far more serious consequences than letting those blood demons go.

"Many years ago, when the Great Qi cultivation world was on an expedition against the demon race, Fellow Daoist Wutian gave me a formation diagram to use to snipe the Silver Moon Wolf King. It is called the Five Elements Imprisoning Heaven Formation, which is perfect for sealing off space. Please follow my instructions."

As soon as he finished speaking, Song Changsheng waved his hand and summoned the Five Elements Imprisoning Heaven Array diagram, which expanded in the air, instantly covering the entire Zhengqi Sect ruins. He then said with a sigh:

"Fellow Daoist Mingshe resides in the Eastern Azure Dragon position."

Wutian Daoyou resides in the White Tiger position in the west.

Fellow Daoist Tian Sha resides in the Vermilion Bird position in the south.

Fellow Daoist Tian Sha resides in the Northern Black Tortoise position.

I consider myself to occupy the central position of Qilin.

Fellow Daoists, open your acupoints and each draw upon the power of the great formation.

"hold head high--"

"Wow—"

"Roar--"

Although it was the first time the four of them had encountered the Five Elements Imprisoning Heaven Formation, with the formation master Song Changsheng mediating in the middle, they were able to unleash 70% of the formation's power.

The Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, Black Tortoise, and Qilin, five illusory divine beasts, each a hundred feet tall, stood in the void, simultaneously suppressing the void.

"Spirit Eye, come out here!"

The Nether Serpent Immortal roared, shaking the heavens.

Below the ruins of the Righteous Qi Sect, Lingmou sensed the sealing power emanating from above. She calmly stood up and handed the [Heavenly Fire Cauldron] in her hand to Yu Dongyang, who was standing beside her, saying, "They've arrived even faster than I expected."

I originally thought I could finish refining the [Six-Turn Heavenly Pill] before reaching this point, but I didn't expect there would still be some shortcomings.

The Blood Demon Cult is truly more trouble than it's worth.

"Master, must it be this way?" Yu Dongyang couldn't help but ask.

"The elite troops have come out in full force, expending so much effort. If they don't get rid of me, these people won't give up."

Protect the Heavenly Fire Cauldron, and then leave after destroying the entire herb garden.

"Disciple obeys." Yu Dongyang bowed and accepted the order, taking the [Heavenly Fire Cauldron], a strange feeling rising in his heart.

After arranging for Dongyang to leave, a burning fighting spirit appeared in Lingmou's eyes. He transformed into a golden light and soared into the sky. Looking at the five imposing figures in the air, he showed no panic and said calmly, "What a grand display. You really think highly of me."

The Nether Serpent Master sternly demanded, "Spirit Eye, today is your death anniversary. Do not resist in vain. Surrender and your true spirit may be spared for reincarnation!"

"Ha, a true spirit reincarnated. The reincarnated me is no longer the original me. Since that's the case, what does it matter whether I'm reincarnated or not? Since you've come to my door today, it's just a battle. Let's see if I can take one of you down with me."

At this point, Lingmou slightly lifted her eyelids and glanced at the Heavenly Killer True Man located in the north.

For some reason, Master Tiansha felt a sudden jolt in his heart.

Among everyone present, he had the lowest cultivation level and strength. If Lingmou were to take someone down with him before he died, he would definitely be the best choice.

"You still dare to be arrogant even when you're about to die!" Shi Potian's eyes were like torches. He threw a punch, and a ferocious dragon phantom roared out from his arm. Wherever the dragon phantom passed, the space trembled.

"break!"

With a sharp cry, a strange glint flashed in her sapphire-pure eyes, and the space in front of her inexplicably distorted for a moment, as if someone had folded space itself.

The illusory dragon was swallowed up by the distorted space without even making a ripple.

Song Changsheng was startled.

As someone who is also proficient in the [Laws of Space], he clearly understands how valuable his opponent's move is.

Although he could do it, he could never do it as effortlessly as Lingmou.

It's not that Lingmou's understanding of the [Laws of Space] surpasses his, but rather that all of this was brought about by her eyes—a gift from heaven.

"Truly an enviable talent." Song Changsheng praised inwardly, then activated the [Five Elements Imprisoning Heaven Formation] and roared, "Suppress!"

An invisible force, like a mountain, pressed down on Lingmou's shoulders, and she immediately felt that the power within her body had been weakened by at least 20%.

Then, thick chains of law appeared in the void, attacking from all directions.

"Little tricks."

With a wave of her slender hand, a sharp spatial blade burst forth from her fingertips, severing all the chains of law.

At this moment, the Nether Serpent Master and the Heavenly Fiend Master joined forces.

A fierce aura and a chilling aura erupted simultaneously in the air, blotting out the sun and creating a vast and powerful force that could be clearly felt even from tens of thousands of miles away.

Song Changsheng pointed his fingers like a sword and slashed out a dazzling sword light in the air, seemingly about to split the heavens and the earth apart.

Shi Potian and Tian Sha Zhenren also unleashed their supernatural powers, not intending to give Lingmou any chance to catch his breath.

Despite her extraordinary talent, Lingmou quickly fell into a disadvantageous position under the siege of five Golden Core cultivators, and her situation became precarious.

At the critical moment, she opened her mouth and spat out a short sword that was no more than an inch long.

The short sword expanded rapidly in mid-air, transforming in the blink of an eye into a three-foot-long green blade, which cleaved down.

The hundred-foot-long sword light swept through the space, annihilating everyone's methods without a trace.

Even the spatial cage constructed by the Five Elements Imprisoning Heaven Array underwent a "deformation".

"A top-grade spiritual treasure."

Song Changsheng frowned, his blood and qi surging within him. He threw a punch, directly shattering the sword light in the air.

"Great Divine Power [World in the Palm of Your Hand]"

A faint ripple appeared in the void behind Lingmou, then she raised her right hand, her five flawless, slender fingers slightly spread, and gently pressed down in the direction of Tiansha Zhenren.

With such an ordinary press, everyone felt the surge of the power of the laws. The jade hand rapidly enlarged in their pupils, eventually obscuring the sky, and a huge shadow enveloped the entire Zhengqi Sect ruins.

This wasn't the first time Song Changsheng had witnessed Lingmou unleash this divine power, yet he was still amazed.

This is the ultimate application of the laws of space.

When they first met, he was only at the Purple Mansion level, and he had to do his best to block even a casual attack from the other party. In the blink of an eye, they were already on the same starting line.

The Spirit Eye has also made significant progress compared to its predecessor; the power of the same divine ability has increased several times over.

Unfortunately, despite their significant progress, the gap in strength between the two sides remained, and they failed to cause any real trouble, easily resolved by the combined efforts of Shi Potian and Song Changsheng.

The six fought fiercely for nearly half an hour, and no matter how many tricks Lingmou used, they could not shake Song Changsheng and the others in the slightest.

If they hadn't been prepared to capture him alive from the start, Lingmou would have been defeated long ago, given his cultivation level.

Even so, with his late-stage Golden Core cultivation, he was quite proud to have lasted so long against the five of them.

Seeing that he couldn't take her down, Shi Potian worried that something might go wrong, and shouted angrily, "Don't drag this out any longer! Since she's so stubborn, let's just annihilate her completely!"

The group exchanged glances and simultaneously unleashed their strongest divine abilities.

In an instant, dazzling colors illuminated half the sky, and the terrifying power made people tremble. At this moment, cultivators from half of the Lu Kingdom's cultivation world raised their heads and looked at the sky.

At this moment, the battered and bruised Spirit Eyes launched its final counterattack before its death.

"Extremely sublimated!"

The life essence within his body burned fiercely, his fair skin cracked like porcelain, radiating a strange brilliance, and finally exploded with a bang before anyone could react.

A giant mushroom cloud rose into the sky, instantly vaporizing the clouds in the air. The surrounding space emitted a cracking sound as if it would collapse at any moment.

The spatial cage constructed by the Five Spirits Imprisoning Heaven Array finally ended its mission at this moment. The phantoms of the five divine beasts dissipated with the wind, and the array collapsed layer by layer.

Although the burst of power from the Spirit Eye was unusually rapid, fortunately, Song Changsheng reacted quickly and immediately converted the confinement and suppression power of the great formation into an internal defensive force, resisting most of the power of the self-destruction.

Once the violent power of the laws dissipated, apart from Tian Sha Zhenren suffering some minor injuries, the others were unaffected.

Only the Spirit Eye, along with that top-grade spirit sword, disappeared into the world.

Looking at the deep crater left on the ground, Song Changsheng frowned slightly. Although the explosion of the Spirit Eye was powerful, it felt like a lot of noise but little action, lacking the destructive power that a late-stage Golden Core cultivator should have when self-destructing.

It seems like... it's running out of steam?
But Lingmou is indeed dead, and not just in form but also in spirit; not even his true spirit remains.

"In that case, she's gotten off easy," said the Nether Serpent Master in a cold voice.

She had originally planned to interrogate Lingmou thoroughly after capturing him, but she hadn't expected him to be so decisive.

"What a pity," Shi Potian sighed.

It's unclear whether he was lamenting the destroyed top-grade spiritual treasure or the [Palm of the World] supernatural power.

Song Changsheng was also filled with regret. His Spirit Eye self-destructed, and everything was destroyed in an instant, including the [Heavenly Fire Cauldron] he had stolen from Baicaotang.

He originally thought the Heavenly Fire Cauldron was just an ordinary spiritual treasure, but after Wu Jie's experiment, he realized that it contained a great secret.

Although he had a replica, a fake is still a fake; it lacks some of the mystery and cannot be fully presented.

One of his objectives in coming here was the Heavenly Fire Cauldron, but it has now been destroyed.

The Spirit Eye self-destructed too quickly, leaving him no room to stop it.

At this moment, Master Tian Sha stepped forward and said, "In any case, eliminating the Blood Demon Sect and the Haoran Alliance, these two malignant tumors, is a cause for celebration for the four realms."

I have already ordered the elders of the sect to prepare a celebratory banquet, and I cordially invite all fellow Daoists to attend."
