No one else had come or gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unaware of what was happening inside the valley, Song Wen grew increasingly anxious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The delay in the Du family's appearance made him worry; could they have learned about the Clear-faced Daoist's presence? Did they realize they weren't a match for the combined forces of the Clear-faced Daoist and Su Qian and dare not attack the Su family?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the valley, within a bamboo house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Clear-faced Daoist, who had been in seclusion to comprehend the 'Devouring Soul Formation,' had now emerged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Learning that she had mastered the control method for the auxiliary array plate of the 'Devouring Soul Formation,' Su Qian instructed Su Wenshi who stood guard, outside the wooden house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Make the arrangements; at midnight tonight, we will activate the 'Devouring Soul Formation.\"\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Wenshi quickly left the bamboo grove and arrived at a black stone building on the other side of the valley. This structure had only one large entrance and no other windows, resembling a prison from the mundane world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two Foundation Establishment cultivators stood guard at the entrance. Upon seeing Su Wenshi, they greeted him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Greetings, Great Elder.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Wenshi asked, \"Everything has been normal with the scattered cultivators in confinement?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Reporting to the Great Elder, everything is fine. We give them Profound Qi Pills daily, and the prison is equipped with a Spirit Gathering Formation, providing ample spiritual energy. Their cultivation levels have not only remained stable but have also slightly increased.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Wenshi nodded. \"Well done. Bring them all out and take them to the 'Devouring Soul Formation.\"\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two guards turned and walked into the prison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, at the summit of Qingping Mountain in the discussion hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Anqing, seated within the hall, also received the news.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Notify everyone immediately.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"From now on, Qingping Mountain is closed; no one is allowed to enter or exit.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Inform all clan members, whether in seclusion or refining pills, to stop everything and gather at the summit plaza within half an hour.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Enhance the vigilance on Qingping Mountain. If any unusual movements are detected, report immediately.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As orders were issued one after another, the cultivators throughout Qingping Mountain began to mobilize.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Anqing walked to the entrance of the hall, watching the clan members moving back and forth in the air. The orders he had issued were being carried out methodically, and a look of excitement crossed his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The day he had been waiting for had finally come!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the ancestor successfully extends his life, all the suffering and humiliation the Su family had endured over these days could be repaid in full.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Du family! Just wait, the enmity between the Su and Du families will soon be settled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A thousand scattered cultivators at the late stage of Qi Refining, practicing the 'Longevity\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Technique,' were divided into ten groups. Each group was shackled with a long chain, resembling pigs tied together with a rope, dragged toward the center of the valley's 'Devouring Soul Formation.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The oldest among them was no more than thirty years old, and each had been restrained, unable to use their internal spiritual power, offering no resistance whatsoever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the thousand scattered cultivators arrived, Su Qian and the Clear-faced Daoist were already waiting within the formation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scattered cultivators were brought into the western section of the formation, with the ends of the ten chains fastened to iron pillars that had been pre-reserved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Qian exchanged glances with the Clear-faced Daoist and said, \"Qingyan, prepare to activate the formation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Clear-faced Daoist nodded. \"Let's begin.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, they each took out their respective array plates and cast their spells toward\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Faint green light began to emanate from both array plates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the edge of the formation, Su Wenshi observed the scene, soaring into the air and\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>hovering above the formation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a wave of his hand, eighty-one fist-sized transparent crystal stones appeared and fell into the grooves along the edges of the formation below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These thirty-six transparent crystals were all top-grade spirit stones, worth a total of thirty- six thousand low-grade spirit stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the top-grade spirit stones settled into the grooves of the formation, the patterns along the edges gradually glowed with faint light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The glow spread toward the center of the formation, and in less than ten minutes, the entire formation was enveloped in green light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The glow intensified, gradually shrouding the entire 'Devouring Soul Formation' in an eerie green light, giving it a terrifying appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the illumination of the green light, Su Qian's face, lined with deep wrinkles, looked ghastly green, making it particularly chilling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wore a bloodthirsty smile, and the reflections of the green light in his eyes resembled vengeful spirits clawing their way out of hell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Qian continuously cast spells into the main array plate. He was the primary controller of the 'Devouring Soul Formation,' while the Clear-faced Daoist served merely as an assistant. His spiritual sense and mana consumption increased rapidly, yet he appeared invigorated,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>showing no signs of fatigue whatsoever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Years of preparation had led to this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside the valley.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hiding in a cave, Song Wen felt restless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he couldn't detect the movements within the valley through his spiritual sense, he\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>could clearly feel that tonight was different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even with the protective formation isolating the valley, he could sense that the fluctuations\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>of spiritual energy within were much stronger than usual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something significant must be happening in the valley.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked up at the sky, hoping for the arrival of the Du family, yet they still had not\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After waiting for half an hour, the fluctuations of spiritual energy in the valley intensified,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>reaching him from afar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even without knowing about the life extension ritual being conducted by Su Qian, he could\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>guess that something big was occurring within the valley.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the distant sky, a dozen figures sped swiftly toward Qingping Mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guards surrounding the Su family first noticed the anomaly and crushed an emergency\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>jade slip, sending a beam of white light soaring into the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All the Su family members on Qingping Mountain were instantly drawn to the white light,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>their expressions solemn as an overwhelming sense of murderous intent permeated the entire\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some flew on swords, while others employed flying techniques.
