Chapter 25: Flaming Sun Patriarch

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The Flaming Sun Skyfire spanned several thousand feet in the void, continuously attacking the grand protection array. The grand array was on the verge of collapsing.

At the same time, the array bases of Mount Ziyang were emitting bright light. They were drawing on the spiritual energy in the underground spirit vein. The spiritual energy was drawn out by the array bases and circulated into the array patterns on the mountain.

The array patterns began to revolve and rippled like water waves.

One after another, terrifying auras kept rising and fluctuating. They converged in the void and formed a terrifying energy barrier, wrapping around Mount Ziyang and turning it into a supreme fortress.

On Mount Ziyang, Foundation Establishment and Qi Refinement cultivators began to form hand seals to activate the array platform in the cave abode. They were acting like a fulcrum of the array, supporting the operation of the array.

On Mount Ziyang, every Immortal’s Cave was a node of the array.

Under normal circumstances, cultivators would sit in their Immortal’s Cave and extract the spiritual energy from their spirit caves to increase their cultivation.

However, when the enemy invaded, cultivators returned to their Immortal’s Cave and activate the array platform in their cave to activate the power of the Great Protective Formation.

The more cultivators there were, the more powerful the Great Protective Formation would be, and the more difficult it would be to break through the array.

At this moment, there were about 1,000 cultivators on Mount Ziyang, and 8 Foundation Establishment cultivators were all seated within their cave abodes. They activated the formation platform, activating the power of the formation to the extreme.

Under such a mountain-protecting formation, not to mention a mere Zifu disciple, even a Golden Core stage cultivator would be able to break through it.

Boom! Boom! Boom…

The Flaming Sun Skyfire continued to burn as it rolled over, vowing to break through Mount Ziyang.

However, as the great formation stood firm, it forcefully repelled the Flaming Sun Skyfire’s attack.

This was especially so for the Great Protective Formation, which was built on the mountain range. The formation patterns were engraved on the mountainside, and the foundation was built on the spirit vein. For such a formation that drew on the power of Heaven and Earth, there were only three ways to break it.

One was a top-notch Formation Master who could find the flaws of the formation and breaking the formation

One was for cultivators to rely on their cultivation. They could use a sheer number of spells to forcefully break the formation.

The other was to continuously attack, using up the power and energy of the formation.

Boom boom boom…

After attacking for a short while, Mount Ziyang was still stable.

“Fellow Daoist, give up.” Right at this moment, a voice rang out from Mount Ziyang. It was the voice of Clan Leader Lu Tianming.

“Fellow Daoist, Mount Ziyang has a Grade 3 Grand Ziyang Formation, and its defenses are powerful. Fellow Daoist, although you are a third-level Zifu disciple, don’t even dream of breaking through these defenses. I wonder how my Lu Clan offended you? If my Lu Clan is in the wrong, fellow Daoist Immortal, I apologize.”

Lu Tianming’s voice was calm and cold.

“You apologize?” The gray-robed Daoist put away the pill furnace. He said coldly.

“If an apology is useful, then what is the point of cultivating? As for what your Lu Clan has done, if no one dares to say it, I will say it. Your Lu Clan relies on the fact that you have a Patriarch of the Zifu stage in your clan to dominate Qingshui Prefecture. You don’t know how to be kind to others. Instead, you go around bullying rogue cultivators, bullying the city, and your disciples acting tyrannically. You act like there are no rules.”

“Many cultivators are filled with resentment and hate towards your Lu Clan. It’s a pity that the Lu Clan is too powerful. An eighth-level Zifu disciple Patriarch isn’t someone outsiders can defeat.”

“The Lu Clan is also extremely protective of their own shortcomings. You help your own clansmen even if it means offending outsiders. When you encounter problems, regardless of whether you are right or wrong, you just attack with violence. Of course, it doesn’t matter if the Lu Clan is tyrannical, bullying rogue cultivators or weak clans. As long as they don’t provoke me, I can’t be bothered to do justice on behalf of the Heavens.”

“It’s a pity. Back then, when I went to the Lu Clan market to buy medicinal pills, I was chased down by Lu Clan cultivators less than five kilometers away from the main gate. Poor thing. My Dao Companion was killed by your Lu Clan in order to protect me.”

“After I escaped, I swore to exterminate your Lu Clan. If Lu Clan had always been strong, I would have no way to attack. However, the Heavens have opened their eyes. Your Lu Clan’s Patriarch was seriously injured and may have passed away. Now I am here to attack and wipe out your entire clan.”

The gray-clothed Daoist sneered, his killing intent seething.

Back then, he was just a mere junior at the fourth level of the Qi Refinement stage. After he was lucky enough to escape, he swore to destroy the Lu Clan and avenge his Dao Companion.

Finally, the opportunity came.

“Fellow Daoist, every clan has unworthy people. There is indeed scum in the clan. However, you can’t throw away a pot of chicken soup just because a few flies appeared, right?” Lu Tianming advised. “As for the scum, our Lu Clan will punish them severely. We will kill anyone we find who has gone against the rules.”

“More than ten years ago, three Foundation Establishment cultivators violated the clan rules and were killed by the Patriarch.”

“I don’t want to explain anything here. I just want to say that when the Patriarch wants to kill someone, there is a debt to be repaid. He killed that cultivator to make amends. Don’t implicate the Lu Clan. I don’t want to explain anything, I just want to make amends to you.”

As the Clan Leader spoke, his tone was very humble.

The gray-robed Daoist laughed coldly. “The Lu Clan is despicable and shameless. Now that the Zifu disciple Patriarch is gone, and I have come knocking on your door, suddenly you want to admit your mistake?”

“If I were just a Qi Refinement disciple, and I came knocking on your door to seek justice, would you have admitted your mistake with a smile? No, not at all. You would have said that I am a vile spawn that slandered your Lu Clan, and you would have destroyed me with a single strike of your sword.”

“You mentioned that ten years ago, that old man severely punished the wrongdoers, and even killed three Foundation Establishment cultivators? He was just trying to trick fooling kids.”

“Old Dog of the Lu Clan, look whose head this is.”

The gray-robed Daoist was slightly angry. He opened his storage bag, holding the head high in his hand.

“Look, this is Lu Xuance’s head. Do you say that the old man did justice for his clan? Do you say that he did things openly and properly? He was just fooling children! At that time, Lu Xuance was not killed. Instead, he was expelled from the clan and became a member of the Lu Clan’s Black Gloves in the outer county. He did some dirty work for the Lu Clan.”

“This is the justice of the Lu Clan? The Lu Clan punish their own clansmen in the name of justice… Bah!”

“That’s fake. You’re slandering the Lu Clan.” Lu Tianming looked at the head and was trembling.

Lu Xuance was dead. He was really dead now.

Unlike last time, when he faked his death.

However, Lu Tianming could not admit it. There was no way he could admit it. Once he did, the Lu Clan would fall into a moral crisis.

Once the Lu Clan lost its footing, its foundation would be unstable. Then the Lu Clan would fall into a mess of thoughts and internal strife, sinking into a pile of loose sand.

“Does the Lu Clan not admit it? It doesn’t matter if they don’t admit it… I brought this man’s head to your door, and I don’t expect you to admit anything. As long as my conscience is clear, it’s enough.”

The gray-clothed Daoist looked at Mount Ziyang and sneered, “We cultivators don’t want to live forever, but we want to be open-minded and happy. If we don’t take revenge, we will forever fear the enemy, and we will be sulking forever. What kind of life would that be?”

“As for your Lu Clan, only that old dog, Lu Fuming, has some ability. The rest of the group are all just flies and dogs. You all are shrewd and scheming, and you will never be able to hold your head up high. Even if the Lu clan spent a large sum of money to buy two pieces of Purple Yang Jades, you can forget about entering the Zifu stage.”

“I have been tossing and turning for a long time, but that old dog, Lu Fuming, has not appeared. It seems he has already passed away. Now, I have come to destroy the Lu Clan.”

As he spoke, the old man activated the pill furnace again. The Flaming Sun Skyfire turned into rolling flames and swept toward Mount Ziyang..
