Starting as a Son-in-law to Establish an immortal Family

Blackwater Pool.

"Boom, boom, boom—"

"Whoo, whoo, whoo—"

One after another, the Spirit Boats, with cultivators taking turns attacking the Xiahou Family’s ’Myriad Corpses Profound Ghost Formation,’ were causing a tremendous uproar and noise, accompanied by waves of ghastly wails and howls of wolves.

However, it was apparent that the Qingyun Sect’s army’s attack had significantly slowed down, nowhere near as ferocious as it had been at the beginning.

"Reporting to Caiyun True Immortal, the Earthshaking Formation is ready!"

Just then, an Array Master came aboard the giant Spiritual Vessel suspended in the void.

He respectfully addressed a breathtakingly beautiful woman robed in colorful palace attire who exuded a regal and unparalleled elegance.

"Break the formation!"

Yun Wanshang, from her elevated position, gazed down upon all beings, slightly parted her red lips and uttered the words coldly and authoritatively.

"Yes!"

The nearby Array Master immediately acknowledged, taking out an Array Plate and manipulating it.

Suddenly, the mountain ranges around Blackwater Pool—where the ’Mountain-suppressing Formation,’ ’Mountain-shaking Formation,’ ’Inverted Mountain Formation,’ ’Earthshaking Formation,’ and ’Mudstone Formation’ were set up—all activated at once.

Under the direction of each Array Master, Spiritual Light surged, array flags fluttered in the wind, and bursts of light shot up into the sky.

The light connected to the local earth’s energy and spiritual energy, merging to form the ’Earthshaking Formation.’

The entire Great Formation displayed a yellowish-brown color, resembling an Earth Dragon stretching between heaven and earth, its presence astounding.

The Earthshaking Formation had the power to overturn mountains and lakes and to shake Spirit Veins.

A Third Rank Great Formation was hard to break, with no weaknesses, because a formation of this level was already capable of perfectly connecting with the Spirit Veins, forming a world all its own, thus making it impregnable.

But the Earthshaking Formation’s ability to invert mountains and lakes directly damaged the Great Formation’s Spirit Veins, turning the Third Rank Great Formation into a castle in the air that would collapse without being attacked.

"Break the formation!"

Aboard the Spiritual Vessel, the Array Master channeled with both hands and shouted aloud.

He immediately threw the Array Plate in his hand, which transformed into a streak of light and flew into the ’Earth Dragon’s’ eyes.

"Roar!"

The Earth Dragon seemed to fully awaken, letting out a roar and charging towards the bottom of Blackwater Pool with a thunderous noise.

"Boom, boom, boom—"

In an instant, everyone felt the ground tremble violently, followed by shaking lands and chaotic spiritual energy.

The Second-tier Top-Level Spirit Vein beneath the Blackwater Pool, under the assault of the Earthshaking Formation, was immediately damaged, with countless spiritual energies spilling out.

A Second Grade Spirit Vein housing a Third Rank Great Formation was already straining to maintain operation solely through the countless Yin corpses and treasures of the Xiahou Family.

Now, with the Spirit Vein damaged by the assault of the Mountain Shaking Formation, its force was greatly diminished and it could no longer sustain itself.

"Dong, dong, dong—"

The east wind blew, and the battle drums sounded.

Aboard the giant Spiritual Vessel, thirty-six cultivators blew the attack horn and beat the war drums.

The sound of the horns and drums revived the spirit of every cultivator as if receiving an order, and they collectively bombarded the ’Myriad Corpses Profound Ghost Formation’ around Blackwater Pool.

"Boom, boom, boom—"

The overwhelming offensive fell upon the ’Myriad Corpses Profound Ghost Formation,’ causing the formation to instantly reveal cracks and flaws, and the true scene within Blackwater Pool was exposed.

"No!"

"Ancestor!"

Inside Blackwater Pool, amidst the shaking earth and gusty spiritual energy, buildings collapsed, and many of the Xiahou Clan’s people let out cries of pain and wailing.

They knew that at this moment, the Xiahou Family was finished.

"Ancestor!"

Xiahou Wuwo’s complexion turned unsightly at this moment as he called out to the patriarch of his family.

"The Earthshaking Formation, Qingyun Sect knew that a great war between two countries was about to start, so they spared no expense to decisively annihilate our Xiahou Family with a thunderous approach."

"Wuwo, when I hold off the people from Qingyun Sect, you must seize the chance to escape."

"Remember, after you leave, do not return to the Heavenly Corpse Sect!"

Within the depths of Blackwater Pool, Xiahou Jie, with a rigid face and ashen-gray skin, his eyes a dark red, spoke in an ice-cold voice.

"Ancestor."

Upon hearing these words, Xiahou Wuwo’s voice was heavy.

He had long known of his family ancestor’s decision.

To attract the attention of Qingyun Sect, the family brought the elite members away from the Qingyun Region, escaping from Jiang Country.

If they couldn’t hold out until Jin Kingdom invaded, he was to escape at the first opportunity.

"Now that our Xiahou Family’s core descendants have been sent away, as long as you live, there is hope for the Xiahou Family."

"Never forget the family feud and blood hatred!"

Xiahou Jie’s voice was cold, devoid of emotion.

"Ancestor, Wuwo dares not forget!"

Xiahou Wuwo looked at his family ancestor, suddenly knelt down, his forehead touching the ground in reverence, bowing deeply three times, his expression solemn, eyes slightly red.

"Qingyun Sect!"

Xiahou Jie suddenly looked up towards the Qingyun Sect members on the great formation outside, his gaze fixed on Yun Wanshang above on the Spiritual Vessel.

His dark red eyes gradually turned bloodshot, deep and somber like blood.

The ashen-gray skin took on the color of blackened iron, with threads of mysterious and malevolent deathly energy spreading around.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Aboard the giant Spiritual Vessel, the big cannons, primed and ready, fired at this moment.

Columns of thunderous lightning, a dozen feet wide and capable of obliterating heaven and earth, bombarded the wavering Great Formation.

The entire heavens filled with gray and black energy, mountains of corpses and seas of blood, wails of ghosts and howls of wolves—all were turned to ash in an instant, vanishing without a trace.

The Xiahou Family’s ’Myriad Corpses Mysterious Ghost Great Formation’ was completely shattered in this moment.

Inside Blackwater Pool, the Xiahou Family’s mountain fortress was revealed.

Within it, the city walls, houses, buildings, and spirit veins were already in ruins, a scene of utter devastation.

Nearly all the common folk of the Xiahou Family perished under the Earthshaking Formation, crushed beneath the buildings without even a chance to wail.

Only some cultivators, in the midst of the shaking earth and collapsing formation, somehow remained alive.

"The formation has broken, exterminate the Xiahou Clan!"

Aboard the giant Spiritual Vessel, Yun Wanshang with a noble and icy demeanor, her brows exuding dominance and authority, commanded sternly.

Suddenly, a golden magical sword appeared in her hand, and as she stepped forward, she stood suspended in the void, her presence like a rainbow, suppressing heaven and earth.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

One after another, the Spiritual Vessels and each Foundation Establishment Ancestor, upon receiving the order, led their disciples to slaughter their way into Blackwater Pool.
