"Is what he said true?"
Inside the cave mansion, Ye Feixue asked.
It seed that an inexplicable unease filled her heart.
Lu Xuanji could have righteously declared that the old Daoist was speaking nonsense and slandering him.
Yet the mont he spoke, he said, "It’s true!"
"I don’t want to deceive you. What he said is true. The Lu Family has done many filthy and despicable things, almost like demons." Lu Xuanji said, "When there are many people, there are bound to be conflicts. When there are a thousand people, all kinds of people appear; there are good people and bad people."
"Originally, this wouldn’t be a big deal, as long as the family rules and ethics are proper, and as long as the clan leader enforces the law strictly, it’s still possible to suppress the evil in people’s hearts and make the family generally healthy."
"Unfortunately, the ancestor himself is not upright, so how can we expect those below to have integrity? The family ethos has completely decayed."
This is also a drawback of cultivation clans.
The ancestor, Lu Fuming, was the first to be dishonest. In that eting more than ten years ago, he seed to show great righteousness by exterminating three Foundation Establishnt cultivators.
It can be considered ruthless.
But it was a trick. On the surface, he killed people, but behind the scenes, he let them go.
On one hand, it seed to intimidate the clan mbers; on the other hand, it appeared to be compassionate.
Yet where is there a perfect solution? This instead fostered a corrupt atmosphere within the clan.
The corruption of family ethos led to the disaster of extermination.
In this world, there are only millennia-old cultivation sects, but there are no millennia-old cultivation families. Relying on bloodlines and relatives to hold together doesn’t last long.
In past lives, so relatives quarreled endlessly over the inheritance and support of elders, nearly becoming enemies, let alone today’s cultivation clans.
"Xiaoxue, you’re still young, naturally powerless to change all this... But when you beco a Purple Mansion or a Golden Core cultivator, beco the clan leader of the Lu Family, you can attempt to change all this," Lu Xuanji comforted.
"Yes, when I am the clan leader, I will surely change the corrupt practices of the Lu Family and establish strict family rules."
Ye Feixue said, and her eyes beca bright.
Keep getting stronger, change the family.
Looking at the passionate young girl, Lu Xuanji was filled with envy.
The dragon slayer ultimately becos the evil dragon.
May you return still a youth.
May you still maintain youthful passion in a thousand years.
As long as the heart is not old, the person is not old.
........
BOOM, BOOM, BOOM.
The great battle continued; the Flaming Sun Celestial Fire attacked, flas engulfing everything, subrging everything.
After half an hour of continuous attacks, the gray-robed Daoist was sowhat fatigued, stopping many tis to take elixirs.
"Daoist friend, give up."
The clan leader, Lu Tianming, said, "Purple Sun Mountain has a Third-Level Grand Array, even if the Daoist friend’s Purple Mansion cultivation cannot break it. And the reinforcents from the Ye Family, Wu Family, and Dan Yang Sect are on their way. At most two more hours, the reinforcents will arrive. By that ti, this place will be the Daoist friend’s burial ground."
The Dan Yang Sect adheres to rules; even Purple Mansion cultivators, or even Golden Core cultivators, must follow the rules.
The Lu Family pays tribute to the Dan Yang Sect every year, and when the Lu Family is attacked, the Dan Yang Sect will also co to its aid.
The Lu Family, along with the Ye Family and Wu Family, have marital ties, competitively fighting over spirit ores, population, and spirit veins; yet, they are also allies against the Dan Yang Sect’s exploitation and external invasions.
Reinforcents are on the way, with ti standing on the Lu Family’s side.
"Give up, giving up is impossible... However, the Lu Family is also near its end. My testing is complete. Daoist friend, have you identified the array’s flaws?"
The gray-robed Daoist looked at a cultivator by his side.
This cultivator was only at the Sixth Layer of Foundation Establishnt, wearing a mask, blending into the crowd of cultivators.
"The array of Purple Sun Mountain is indeed solid, with no inherent flaws. Even a Golden Core cultivator needs to assault it for three hours to breach the grand array. As for a Purple Mansion cultivator, it’s impossible to break through," the masked cultivator spoke, his voice hoarse as if concealing his identity, "The array has no flaws; the flaws lie in people."
"If there were a Purple Mansion Cultivator, or ten Foundation Establishnt cultivators, or a Third-Level Array Master guarding, we couldn’t break it. But the Lu Family has none... Act now!"
The cultivator spoke, taking out array flags, distributing them to twenty Foundation Establishnt cultivators.
Under the direction of this Third-Level Array Master, twenty Foundation Establishnt cultivators stood at different corners below Purple Sun Mountain, operating the array flags, forming a human array, drawing upon the power of the array. The array flags at various positions resonated, emitting a buzzing sound.
Along with the array flags resonating, runes ascended, intertwining with each other, impacting the Mountain Protection Array of Purple Sun Mountain.
"Not good."
Clan Leader Lu Tianming flashed a trace of worry.
An Array Master is more terrifying and difficult to enter than an Alchemist, Artifact Refiner, or Talisman Maker. At profound levels, their every move wields imnse power.
Below Purple Sun Mountain, the Array Master took action, intending to break the array with another array.
BOOM, BOOM, BOOM.
The array of Purple Sun Mountain and the array ford by the twenty Foundation Establishnt cultivators clashed. Instantly, the array of Purple Sun Mountain suppressed and crushed the temporary array of the twenty Foundation Establishnt cultivators.
One array laid by a spirit vein, the other by Foundation Establishnt cultivators, the disparity was imnse.
The Array Master remained expressionless, continuing to direct the Foundation Establishnt cultivators to assault the grand array of Purple Sun Mountain.
Failure.
Failure.
Failure.
Seven or eight continuous failures, yet each ti the duration persisted.
With the increase in ti, the Array Master searched for flaws in Purple Sun Mountain.
On the twenty-eighth attempt, the array ford by twenty Foundation Establishnt cultivators engaged again with the Mountain Protection Array of Purple Sun Mountain, seemingly causing the mountains and rivers to quake.
At this mont, the once fierce Mountain Protection Array unexpectedly halted, its operation appearing flawed and unsmooth.
Without needing the Array Master to say anything, the gray-robed Daoist’s eyes lit up, urging the pill furnace, as the Flaming Sun Celestial Fire transford into a ten-foot fla, sweeping forth and striking the array.
The fla’s form shrunk from a hundred feet to ten feet, yet its power doubled.
Poof.
The fla collided with the array, forcibly opening a gap.
Kill!
The gray-robed Daoist shouted decisively, rushing through the gap.
Simultaneously, two Foundation Establishnt cultivators also entered, charging in.
"Not good."
At this mont, the clan leader was anxious and fearful.
First to act, intercepting the gray-robed Daoist.
Swish, swish.
Simultaneously, the clan leader urged his flying sword, launching an attack.
The gray-robed Daoist pointed a finger, and the flying sword flew backward.
The clan leader tasted sothing sweet in his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.
The Ninth-Layer Foundation Establishnt cannot withstand the Third-Layer Purple Mansion, the gap is too vast.
Kill!
At this mont, another flying sword attacked.
Another Foundation Establishnt cultivator from the Lu Family took action.
Swish, swish!
On Purple Sun Mountain, eight Foundation Establishnt cultivators of the Lu Family acted, encircling the gray-robed Daoist.
A Purple Mansion cultivator is too powerful, not sothing Foundation Establishnt cultivators can resist.
To resist a Purple Mansion cultivator, at least eight or even ten more Foundation Establishnt cultivators are required.
When quality is insufficient, quantity must compensate.
The eight Foundation Establishnt cultivators from the Lu Family joined forces, their coordination seamless, and for a mont, the gray-robed Daoist couldn’t defeat his enemies.
At the sa ti, the two Foundation Establishnt cultivators who entered Purple Sun Mountain also attacked various places of the Lu Family.
