"Third Grandfather...!"
Zhang Tianming roared, his figure swiftly rushing over here.
He never expected Zhang Yongkang to be so resolute?
When a Foundation Establishnt cultivator faces a life-and-death crisis, trying to stop them from escaping would take so effort.
But now...
His figure blurred, rapidly charging towards Lei Tianming.
"Buzz...!"
At this mont, a strange buzzing sound suddenly ca from the back mountain behind the Zhang Family's main residence. Following that, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi within a hundred-mile radius around the back mountain started to churn, as if boiling.
From a distance, the massive Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi ford a shape similar to an inverted funnel, slowly rotating and pressing downward.
"This is..."
As an experienced cultivator, Lei Tianming noticed imdiately.
"Breakthrough!"
"Soone is breaking through to the Foundation Establishnt Stage here!"
With a thought, he quickly discovered sothing.
The Zhang Family's eldest son, Zhang Shaoyang, was not here.
No wonder...
It seems the person breaking through in the back mountain at this mont is none other than Zhang Shaoyang, the Zhang Family's eldest son!
Without any hesitation, he directly turned around and headed towards the back mountain.
The safety of Third Grandfather was certainly not as important as a Foundation Establishnt enemy.
If Third Grandfather falls, only he would be left as a Foundation Establishnt cultivator in the Lei Family, dominating both the Lei Family and the entire Weiyang Mountain.
But if this newly erged Foundation Establishnt cultivator ruins his plans, it would be a huge loss!
"Go!"
"Thunderfire Sword!"
"Boom!"
The flying sword did a spin, transforming into a bolt of lightning that shot rapidly towards the back mountain.
But the next mont, a light suddenly swept out from the back mountain, blocking the flying sword, and the entire light screen trembled violently.
"An array?"
Lei Tianming furrowed his brows. No wonder the Zhang Family's clan protection array had been so weak before; the majority of its core had been transferred to the back mountain where Zhang Shaoyang was in seclusion.
Without hesitation, he clapped his hands, and more than a dozen talismans shot out fiercely, transforming into several bolts of thunder and flas, sweeping towards the back mountain.
"Boom!"
"Boom boom!"
In an instant, a continuous explosion of thunder and flas rang out, causing the entire back mountain and the array to tremble constantly.
Now, the array's light screen was covered with a dense web of cracks, and it was on the verge of breaking at any mont.
"Boom!"
At this mont, the guardian array at the back mountain shook violently, and the light screen suddenly disappeared, revealing the true form of the back mountain.
And just then, the last wisp of the inverted funnel-shaped Spiritual Energy Cloud Layer in the sky finally vanished, all absorbed by Zhang Shaoyang at the back mountain.
In the next mont, a middle-aged man wearing green robes transford into a stream of light and shot out from the back mountain, floating in mid-air.
The newly-born Divine Thought scanned over, taking in the whole situation at Weiyang Mountain.
His Zhang Family... had been forced into such a dire situation.
"Lei Family...!!!"
Zhang Shaoyang roared in fury, the magical power within him surged, instantly transforming into cold killing intent.
He had made the breakthrough using a top-grade Foundation Establishnt Pill exchanged from the system by his parents; everything went smoothly, like a natural progression, successfully advancing to Foundation Establishnt!
And for so reason, after breaking through with this Foundation Establishnt Pill, the magical power within him was several tis purer than his father's.
Perhaps, it was thanks to the Foundation Establishnt Pill!
"Zhang Shaoyang! It's just you left!"
A black Thunderfire Sword shot over from a distance, transforming into a bolt of lightning, slashing fiercely at Zhang Shaoyang.
It was Lei Tianming, who had been waiting for a long ti.
Seeing Zhang Shaoyang exit seclusion, he attacked without hesitation.
Just a newly-broken Foundation Establishnt cultivator, he was confident enough to kill him.
"Clang!"
A loud noise echoed as Zhang Shaoyang raised his hand, a five-colored flying sword barely blocking the Thunderfire Sword.
The two drastically different flying swords clashed fiercely in mid-air, generating powerful Spiritual Qi fluctuations that kept exploding.
At the sa ti, both were continuously hurling talismans and magic at each other.
For a mont, the entire Weiyang Mountain was ablaze with explosions, spells flew, and blasts kept ringing out.
As ti went by, Lei Tianming's expression beca increasingly grim.
"What is this?"
"Zhang Shaoyang just broke through to the Foundation Establishnt Stage, so why is his magical power so thick and pure? Could it be he broke through long ago, hiding in a secret room to stabilize his cultivation, watching as the Zhang Family mbers were slaughtered?"
Lei Tianming's heart tightened painfully; could the eldest son of the Zhang Family have such a mindset?
A formidable foe!
Looks like he'll have to end him quickly.
Otherwise, if he decides to abide by the Canglan Covenant and head to the Nether Abyss, then no enemy can touch the Zhang Family for ten years!
With that thought, killing intent flashed through Lei Tianming's eyes.
He clapped his storage bag, and a strange, crescent-moon-shaped black magical artifact appeared in his hand.
With a single-hand gesture, the crescent-moon-shaped artifact suddenly expanded and started spinning madly.
"Shaoyang!"
At this mont, Yang Ping'er struggled up from the ruins.
Sustained by the Blood Burning Pill, she wasn't dead yet, though she was seriously injured.
Her bloodshot eyes were fixed fiercely on Lei Tianming, who was battling Zhang Shaoyang in mid-air.
"Shaoyang broke through successfully!"
"Wonderful!"
"Lei, Lei Family scoundrels! I won't, I won't spare you...!"
From afar, Lei Tianming had long noticed that Yang Ping'er was not dead, but he didn't care.
A Qi Cultivation late-stage cultivator who consud a Blood Burning Pill and clung on until now was no threat to him.
The urgent task was to kill Zhang Shaoyang first!
"Chirp..."
Just as Yang Ping'er was about to go all out, a sudden heat emanated from the center of her chest.
Her eyes lit up suddenly, and she hurriedly took out the Yin Yang Treasure Mirror Fragnt from her chest.
"System!"
"Yes! We still have the system!"
On the chaotic-colored lens of the Yin Yang Treasure Mirror, lines of text appeared.
[Detected that the bound family, Zhang Family of Weiyang Mountain, is experiencing an extermination crisis, the following options are available.]
[Option 1: The host may flee quickly and beco a Loose Cultivator. The Strongest Family Cultivation System can be transford into the Strongest Immortal Monarch Cultivation System.]
[Option 2: Voluntarily relinquish the Strongest Family Cultivation System. The system can assist the current host in escaping from this place.]
[Option 3: Sacrifice all cultivation items within the Weiyang Mountain area, including magical artifacts, elixirs, talismans, etc., to gain usage rights to a Golden Core Stage Puppet for fifteen minutes.]
"Three, three options!"
Looking at the three options appearing on the lens, Yang Ping'er was montarily at a loss.
But she quickly caught on.
Option 1 and Option 2 were definitely not her choices.
Loose Cultivator?
Give up the system?
No way!
Now that the Zhang Family has been driven to the brink by the Lei Family, her son Zhang Shaohai was killed, and her husband Zhang Yongkang's life is uncertain.
If this is the case...
Then the only option available now is... the third one!
"Shaoyang just broke through to the Foundation Establishnt Stage, he is definitely not a match for this Lei Family cultivator."
"A Foundation Establishnt cultivator from the Lei Family... Lei Tianming, who went to the Nether Abyss ten years ago?"
"I didn't expect he didn't perish in the Nether Abyss and instead returned from it!"
"Sacrifice all of Weiyang Mountain's cultivation items, including magical artifacts, elixirs, talismans, etc., to gain usage rights to a Golden Core Stage Puppet for fifteen minutes?"
"If there's really a Golden Core Stage Puppet at our disposal for those fifteen minutes, not just the Lei Family cultivator, but even if ten Foundation Establishnt cultivators co, we wouldn't need to fear!"
"But..."
Despite her injuries, covered in blood, Yang Ping'er gritted her teeth and said: "Only by repelling the Lei Family cultivator can we gain all of Weiyang Mountain's assets, how..."
Just at this mont, another line of text appeared on the Yin Yang Treasure Mirror lens.
[Detected that the Zhang Family of Weiyang Mountain is facing a crisis, initiating ergency status.]
[The host may pre-draw from Option 3, using a loan to temporarily access the Golden Core Stage Puppet. After usage, the host must sacrifice all current cultivation treasures within the Weiyang Mountain range, or the system will automatically unbind.]
[Additionally, after this crisis is resolved, the Zhang Family of Weiyang Mountain must further pay five percent of the total Spirit Stones equivalent of the current loan as interest.]
[No services will be provided by the system until this interest is cleared.]
[Please select:]
[Option 1: Agree to the loan usage of the Golden Core Stage Puppet.]
[Option 2: Refuse the loan usage of the Golden Core Stage Puppet.]
Seeing the lines of text and the options given, Yang Ping'er quickly understood.
"Is this... a loan? Usury?"
Without a mont's hesitation, she said directly: "Agree! Quick! I agree...!"
