Longevity Family: Let Her Live At The Beginning, Let Her Live

The most crucial thing is that within a range of ten million soul forces, his spiritual power underwent a qualitative change.

When he was at the Core Formation stage, his spiritual power was like a layer of foam that would shatter upon contact. But now, his spiritual strength is like steel, surging like ocean waves.

He even felt that he could crush a Core Formation cultivator with just his spiritual power alone. Only after reaching this moment did he understand what it feels like to be in the Nascent Soul stage.

It's unbelievably powerful, completely incomparable to Core Formation. Just the transformation of his spiritual power alone is so significant. If his realm and cultivation were to improve as well, it would be terrifying.

At this moment, Hua Weimian came down again.

With an unpleasant expression, she said, "Elder Zhang, four Nascent Soul cultivators from the Heavenly Demon Temple have arrived. They might even have brought precious treasures. So, you might have to stay here for a while. After all, you are a fourth-level formation master. Only when you operate the sect-protecting formation can it exert its maximum power."

Zhang Ran deeply understood the principle of mutual dependence. If the Evergreen Sect were to perish, his Zhang family would not survive for long either. So, he agreed, but immediately ordered Zhang Yin and the others to return to the Zhang family.

By then, the Nascent Soul battle would only be cannon fodder for those Foundation Building cultivators. There would be no meaning in staying here.

Only Zhang Ran and Hua Weimian could sense the fluctuations in the First Heaven Sect. But the sky above the six sects' territories was becoming increasingly dark, and everyone felt a sense of unease in their hearts.

"Master, you should absorb this Infant Transformation Pill first. I will oversee the sect-protecting formation," Zhang Ran handed over the pill.

"Hmm, Fellow Daoist Zhang, I will never forget this favor," Hua Weimian sincerely said without any pretense. At the same time, she gave Zhang Ran a formation plate. This was the core formation plate of the Evergreen Sect's grand formation. Then, she went into seclusion to refine the pill.

By giving Zhang Ran the sect-protecting formation plate, Hua Weimian showed her utmost trust in him.

Seeing Hua Weimian disappear, Zhang Ran did not linger either. Holding the Evergreen Sect's formation plate, he ascended to the main hall and infused it with a trace of spiritual power.

Lines that only he could see slowly appeared. These lines gradually covered the entire sect, forming the Evergreen Sect's super formation.

Zhang Ran flew swiftly above the Evergreen Sect with the formation plate. After observing for a while, his eyes revealed a shocked expression.

"This isn't a fourth-level formation at all. It's clearly a fifth-level formation. It's just that it has deteriorated to the fourth level due to the passage of time and the sect's decline."

"Could it be the same for the other six sects?"

As Zhang Ran continued to observe, he became more and more aware of the intricacy and horror of this formation. If it were still a fifth-level formation, he wouldn't fear even if the Heavenly Demon Temple sent more cultivators.

"What a pity. Several formation points have already been damaged, and there are no fifth-level formation flags. This formation can only exert the power of a fourth-level formation."

Zhang Ran also discovered a few weak points in the formation. If these places were known and destroyed from within, it would greatly affect the formation. So, Zhang Ran dealt with these points, setting up small third-level illusion formations to hide them.

At the same time, he also set up some inducement illusion formations, making some dangerous formation points appear weak.

"Several Core Formation elders have disappeared from the sect in the past two years, and the remaining peak masters cannot be fully trusted. We still need to be cautious."

After familiarizing himself with the entire formation, Zhang Ran noticed that the fluctuations from the First Heaven Sect had disappeared.

"First Heaven Sect has fallen so quickly?" Zhang Ran's pupils contracted. This speed clearly exceeded his expectations.

"First Heaven Sect must have a traitor as well. Otherwise, with a grand formation similar to the Evergreen Sect's, they could withstand for a long time."

·····

At this moment, within the First Heaven Sect,

A scene of devastation, with mountains of corpses and rivers of blood on the ground. The attacks of the four Nascent Soul cultivators have caused countless Foundation Building and Qi Refining disciples to die like ants.

In the main hall of the First Heaven Sect, the Sect Master of the First Heaven Sect feels weak, his eyes turning red as he looks at the person who betrayed him. This person bears a resemblance to him, and he never expected it to be his beloved grandson.

He hoarsely roars, "Be vigilant day and night, it's hard to guard against family traitors! Fool, our First Heaven Sect's grand formation would take them at least three days to break through. Three days is enough time for other sects to come to our aid. Hu Yong, you unfilial child!"

The anger of the First Heaven Sect Master overwhelms him, and he coughs up a mouthful of blood. As a Nascent Soul cultivator in the early stage, he is no match for the Heavenly Demon Temple. Everyone in the First Heaven Sect has been killed, leaving only him and the disobedient grandson.

The original intention of the Heavenly Demon Temple was to subdue the First Heaven Sect, which would have been the best outcome. But who would have thought that the disciples of the First Heaven Sect would rather die than surrender? In that case, they had no choice but to destroy the First Heaven Sect and seize their spiritual veins and mining grounds.

"First Heaven Sect Master, the situation has been settled. You can go now," said Elder Sun as he approached.

The disobedient grandson, Hu Yong, silently watches the First Heaven Sect Master without saying a word. It's unclear what he's thinking, but his gaze is filled with indifference.

"You Heavenly Demon Temple will never succeed. Kill me? Even if I die today, I will release the underground demon and you will suffer the same fate as me, Heavenly Demon Temple. Hahaha!"

The First Heaven Sect Master laughs maniacally, his face twisted with madness, even though he is on the brink of death.

"Fellow Daoist Hu, are you joking? That demon is suppressed by an ancient sixth-level formation. Why would you disturb it? I, Sun, am at least a fourth-level formation master and I have studied the formation patterns of that demon below. Unless all six sects join forces, it will take ten thousand years for it to break the seal. Even if you want to destroy it, the formation patterns beneath the First Heaven Sect will take several hundred years to dismantle," Elder Sun said with a sinister smile, stroking his yellowed beard. He had long realized that the demon's formation could only be broken if all six sects worked together.

After Elder Sun finished speaking, he saw the barely alive First Heaven Sect Master on the other side still wearing a cold smile.

The First Heaven Sect Master muttered, "Heh, idiot," and then crushed a golden talisman in his hand. The talisman quickly merged into the ground.

Seeing this scene, Elder Sun, who had been strategizing, had a drastic change in his expression.

"Quick, stop him!"

Although the four Nascent Soul cultivators didn't understand formations, they knew that the person in front of them had done something terrible. They immediately tried to stop the talisman.

However, the golden talisman was incredibly fast, even mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators struggled to keep up. The four of them rushed into the ground, causing a violent upheaval that turned the underground upside down.

But even after traveling thousands of feet, they could only watch helplessly as the golden talisman merged into a formation that made them all extremely wary.

What they saw was a red array, with complex patterns. This was just a corner of the entire formation, which was already beyond their sight.

After the golden talisman merged, the red array began to flicker, as if a terrifying energy was about to erupt.

The four of them quickly shielded themselves and returned to the front of the First Heaven Sect's main hall. The First Heaven Sect Master looked at them with a smug expression.

"Didn't expect it, did you? I've been working on this for five hundred years, all for this day. Even though I'm dead, the entire cultivation world will suffer a catastrophe. Hahaha!"

"Damn it!" The Nether Palace Master angrily strikes out, killing the First Heaven Sect Master, and then turns to Elder Sun with a furious expression.

At this moment, Elder Sun is at a loss.

Just as the Nether Palace Master is about to scold Elder Sun, a terrifying wave of energy comes from underground, as if something is about to burst out.

"Boom!"

The earth shakes and the mountains collapse. The four of them quickly dodge, only to find themselves thousands of miles away.
