Longevity: Start From The Entry Of Luck

Chapter 231: The Fall of the Sunset Sect, Regret of the Masses! (Seeking monthly votes, seeking subscriptions!)

The Sunset Sect.

Located on a massive mountain peak, clouds and mist only lingered around its waist.

At this moment, a huge light curtain enveloped the entire mountain peak, which was the Sunset Sect's protective array.

Inside the array, a sense of desolation filled the air.

The shattered tokens of the eight Divine Bridge Realm elders had completely alarmed the higher-ups of the Sunset Sect.

After discussing with the remaining three elders and the sect master, a decisive decision was made.

They packed up all the sect's resources and took along the outstanding disciples, fleeing the mountain gate and heading to the capital to seek refuge with the Qianyuan Imperial Family.

But before they could finish packing up...

Kong Nian arrived at the Sunset Sect ahead of everyone else.

After he unleashed his true self, Law Manifestation, to attack the mountain gate, the protective array was activated in time.

This prevented a catastrophe.

Seeing this, Kong Nian stopped.

Everyone saw the majestic Law Manifestation outside the protective array and felt despair in their hearts.

Being blocked by a Law Manifestation, they had become trapped like turtles in a jar.

Now all their struggles and efforts were in vain.

If there were still more than ten Divine Bridge Realm elders, they could have fought against it with the help of the protective array.

But now, the entire Sunset Sect only had four practitioners at the Divine Bridge Realm.

Even with the protective array, the four Divine Bridge Realm practitioners were powerless against the Law Manifestation.

The sect master of the Sunset Sect stood behind the protective array and respectfully bowed to Kong Nian in mid-air.

"Senior Kong Nian, can you please spare us and give us a way out?"

Kong Nian stood in mid-air, silent.

Seeing that Kong Nian didn't respond, he could only speak up again with a brave face.

"Senior Kong Nian, seeing the situation of our fellow practitioners, can you let the Sunset Sect keep a few seeds so that our sect can continue its legacy?"

Upon hearing these words, Kong Nian, who had unleashed his true self, Law Manifestation, spoke slowly.

"Keep seeds? Several decades ago, wasn't it your sect that secretly killed the most outstanding disciple of the Tian Shou Peak?"

"Why didn't you leave any seeds for my Tian Shou Peak?"

"I..." The sect master of the Sunset Sect hurriedly spoke, but was interrupted by Kong Nian.

"There's no need for excuses in front of me, and I won't listen to your excuses!"

"I only believe in my judgment!"

Hearing Kong Nian's firm words, the sect master of the Sunset Sect fell silent.

The grand elder beside him became excited at this moment and said, "Sect master, let's fight him!"

"Fight? How can we fight?" The sect master of the Sunset Sect smiled bitterly. "That's a Law Manifestation, a Law Manifestation that has condensed its true self. Even Wang Xiao and the other three Law Manifestations seem to have been defeated. What qualifications do we have to fight?"

"What should we do then? Just wait for death?" The grand elder's expression became fervent. "Once he makes a move, can this protective array really withstand a Law Manifestation in its prime?"

"At most, it can only delay for a while. The protective array will eventually be broken."

"He's not making a move now, he's just waiting for people like Lu Qingshan to arrive."

"When they arrive, it will be the time for Kong Nian to break the array."

The sect master of the Sunset Sect spoke slowly.

"We can delay for a while. I have already sent a message to the Qianyuan Imperial Family. They want us to hold on, and reinforcements are on their way."

"Reinforcements? Who is coming, the Divine Might King or the other princes?"

"No mention."

"No mention? Will there really be reinforcements?" The grand elder couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Everyone fell silent after listening.

Suddenly, another elder spoke up, "If we had been able to bring Jiang Yuan into the Sunset Sect back then, it would have been great."

"Without Jiang Yuan, Kong Nian wouldn't have been able to obtain the Longevity Fruit or break through to the Law Manifestation realm."

"With Jiang Yuan, today's situation might have been completely reversed."

"It should be us going to block the Tai Xuan Sect, not the other way around!"

Upon hearing these words, Gong Sunzhi pursed her lips and felt a mix of emotions in her heart.

She knew that everyone in the sect who knew about this matter blamed her.

Including the sect master beside her, though he didn't say it out loud.

The calamity that befell the Sunset Sect today was not because they had allied with the Qianyuan Imperial Family.

Nor was it because they had secretly eliminated the young geniuses of the surrounding sects over the years, which had brought them trouble.

The current situation was solely because of Jiang Yuan.

Because of Jiang Yuan, Kong Nian, who was approaching the end of his life, was able to obtain a Longevity Fruit.

And it was because Kong Nian consumed that Longevity Fruit that he was able to extend his life by a hundred years, return to his youth, and successfully break through to the Law Manifestation realm.

If Jiang Yuan had been brought into the Sunset Sect back then, none of this would have happened to the Tai Xuan Sect.

The Sunset Sect would have also flourished with Jiang Yuan's inclusion.

Thinking of this, Gong Sunzhi's tone became low, "Today's calamity is all because of me. I was blind back then and didn't see Jiang Yuan's talent."

"It led to him joining the Tai Xuan Sect instead of the Sunset Sect."

"If it weren't for me, he should have joined the Sunset Sect, and this situation wouldn't have occurred today."

The sect master of the Sunset Sect let out a sigh.

"It's useless to talk about this now!"

"Our mountain gate is blocked, and no one can leave the sect."

"If we want to survive, we can only do our best to hold on and wait for support from the Qianyuan Imperial Family."

Half a day later.

Under the acceleration of Lu Qingshan and the others, the flying ship quickly arrived at the mountain gate of the Sunset Sect.

Looking at the light curtain that enveloped the entire Sunset Sect below.

Liu Jie exclaimed, "It's truly spectacular! Kong Shouzuo is too domineering! One person blocking an entire sect!"

"Just by standing there, he is like an ancient god, causing the Sunset Sect to directly raise its protective formation."

Liu Ruxi also marveled, "Yes! But all of this is because of Jiang Yuan. Who could have imagined that the young man we found in the desolate mountains and ancient forests would cause the destruction of the Sunset Sect!"

Liu Jie's expression was somewhat regretful, "In that case, it's thanks to Senior Sister Tantai. If Senior Sister Tantai hadn't left a token for Brother Jiang, Brother Jiang wouldn't have found our Tai Xuan Sect."

Liu Ruxi nodded in agreement, "Yes! This might be Senior Sister Tantai's greatest contribution in her lifetime, but unfortunately, Senior Sister Tantai perished in the Li Zhu Grotto-Heaven."

Seeing the arrival of the main force of the Tai Xuan Sect, the Sunset Sect immediately fell into chaos.

At this moment, the several elders had no intention of paying attention to the chaos below and were filled with silence.

Because so far, they had not seen any reinforcements arrive.

The messages sent out through the communication jade talisman had also disappeared without a trace, without any response.

After a moment.

Thirteen elders of the Divine Bridge Realm from the Tai Xuan Sect, as well as the sect leader, stood in mid-air.

Kong Nian's Primordial Spirit Law Manifestation was also pushed to the extreme, with a golden outline permeating his entire body.

His figure reached a height of over 1,600 zhang.

Like a deity who had walked out of ancient times.

"Please break the formation, Senior Uncle Kong!" Lu Qingshan clasped his hands and said.

"Good!"

The Primordial Spirit Law Manifestation opened its mouth and spoke with a thunderous explosion.

Kong Nian took big strides forward and arrived in front of the protective formation of the sect, raising his fist high.

"Everyone withstand the pressure, we must not let the formation break! Hold on for a moment longer, reinforcements are about to arrive."

The Sect Master of the Sunset Sect shouted.

Upon hearing the word "reinforcements," the inner disciples stationed at the formation base all shouted.

"Yes, we will obey the Sect Master's orders!"

They exerted all their spiritual power and infused it into the formation base.

Under their exertion, the light curtain became even more solid.

Boom—

As a fist fell, the light curtain of the formation dropped like a stone on a calm water surface, causing ripples.

Inside the formation, several inner disciples were coughing up blood, their breath weak.

Several elders also experienced surges of qi and blood in their bodies, enduring greater pressure than the other inner disciples.

Lu Qingshan also shouted, "Elders, leaders, join me in attacking!"

In an instant, thirteen elders and leaders at the Divine Bridge Realm level each used their strongest attack techniques, collectively striking the protective formation of the Sunset Sect.

Kong Nian's expression turned cold, and his second fist also fell heavily.

Everyone's attacks landed simultaneously on the protective formation in front of them.

Boom—

A deafening sound reverberated through the heavens and earth. The formation shook violently, as if a giant stone had fallen horizontally, causing intense ripples that spread in all directions.

Puh—

Inner disciples spewed blood from their mouths, their breath becoming weak.

Their internal organs couldn't withstand this impact and burst one after another.

Several elders also had blood flowing from the corners of their mouths.

Despair filled their eyes.

At this moment, the third attack descended.

Boom—

With a loud noise, the formation shattered like a mirror.

The formation bases also exploded one after another.

Several elders were forced to retreat repeatedly under this impact, leaving deep craters on the ground.

Lu Qingshan looked down at the shattered formation below, his eyes filled with indifference.

"Kill!"

He coldly shouted.

Below, a blue figure rushed towards the several elders.

Lu Qingshan recognized this person as Gong Sunzhi, the chief elder and enforcer of the Sunset Sect.

This person was filled with a sense of death, and her aura continued to expand.

Watching the approaching figure, Lu Qingshan murmured to himself, "Forbidden technique, self-destruction? A remarkable woman, what a pity!"

He raised his hand and drew his sword.

A terrifying sword intent descended from the sky and landed on Gong Sunzhi.

In this sword intent, she instantly turned into a mist of blood.

At this moment, Lu Qingshan's cultivation advanced once again, reaching the eighth level of the Divine Bridge Realm.

Meanwhile, Gong Sunzhi was only at the third level of the Divine Bridge Realm.

The two of them were separated by a full five realms, and the final result was that Lu Qingshan was completely defenseless in front of him.

This is the terrifying effect brought about by the suppression of realms.

Not to mention that Lu Qingshan, as the head of the Tai Xuan Sect, cultivated a heavenly-grade technique that was unparalleled in attack.

"All disciples, follow my previous orders, kill!"

Lu Qingshan said coldly.

Under the leadership of Lu Qingshan, with Kong Nian also present, the core members of the Sunset Sect were killed, and those who resisted were also killed.

The remaining people surrendered one after another.

After they handed over all their wealth, the Tai Xuan Sect finally gave these non-core members a way out.

As for those true core members, they knew that surrendering meant death, so they bravely rushed towards the disciples of the Tai Xuan Sect, only to be killed halfway.

An hour later.

Everything settled.

The Sunset Sect was buried in ruins, becoming a few sparse records in the history of the Qianyuan Kingdom.

Tai Xuan Sect.

Jiang Yuan slowly opened his eyes.

"I finally finished refining those essence of great medicines. I wonder how the battle of the head of the sect went? With Senior Kong Nian, the Law Manifestation Grand Cultivator, sitting in, there shouldn't be any problems!"

He muttered to himself, then waved his hand, and five thousand-year-old medicinal plants appeared in front of him.

These were his only remaining cultivation resources at the moment.

Jiang Yuan picked up one of the thousand-year-old medicinal plants and chewed and swallowed it.

Then he closed his eyes and began to refine.

Time slowly passed.

Seven days later.

The previously swallowed thousand-year-old medicinal plant was completely refined by him.

Feeling the progress of his own cultivation, he let out a breath.

"Thirty percent progress, with the assistance of the thousand-year-old medicinal plant for cultivation, the efficiency is indeed high!"

Jiang Yuan sighed lightly, then took out another thousand-year-old medicinal plant.

"Unfortunately, I don't have much inventory left! Looking at it now, this amount of inventory is not enough for me to break through the ninth realm of the Divine Bridge Realm!"

Jiang Yuan muttered to himself.

Then he secretly wondered how the head of the sect was doing.

"My share of cultivation resources should be arriving in these few days!"

Jiang Yuan swallowed another thousand-year-old medicinal plant and continued to refine the essence of the medicinal plants in his body.

After a moment, Jiang Yuan opened his eyes.

A smile appeared on his face.

Because he heard a knock on the door, and he also sensed Lu Qingshan's aura outside the mansion.

"Xiaoxiao, bring the head of the sect to my courtyard."

Jiang Yuan immediately got up, and with a thought, the surroundings turned lush and blooming with flowers.

For Jiang Yuan, who now mastered the rules of the five elements, this miraculous scene was just a thought.

Soon, Shu Xiaoxiao led Lu Qingshan to appear in front of Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan looked at the golden aura that had gathered on their bodies over the past few days, and with a thought, the power of Luck from both of them flowed into his panel.

In the blink of an eye, his Luck power had reached 1943 strands.

After glancing at the Luck power that was about to reach 2000 strands, Jiang Yuan closed the panel.
