Family Rise by Daily Intelligence

Chapter 478 - 236: Sewing Wedding Clothes for Others, Gongsun Clan in Peril, Fourth-Transformation Cyan Lotus Ripens

"Fortunately, the Life Source Water is still here."

Under the rolling stones.

The residual Sealing Power still protected that drop of Life Source Water.

Gongsun Wen tilted his head back, gulping down a gourd of Recovery Spirit Wine. Once he felt a slight return of mana in his body, he waved his sleeve. A weak Spiritual Qi lifted the fallen stones ten zhang away.

The Life Source Water was revealed before his eyes.

Just at that moment.

Gongsun Wen’s Divine Sense twitched.

A warning from the Earth Pig sounded in his ears:

"Damn it!"

Someone had intruded into All-Seeing Mountain.

But now he was no longer capable of fighting, and to breach the Three Talents Mysterious Array, it would at least require someone with Foundation Establishment cultivation.

At this moment.

A ripple emanated from the mountain.

The Life Source Water was within reach.

Gongsun Wen gritted his teeth, flipped his right hand, and immediately activated the only Small Teleportation Talisman in his possession.

With a buzzing sound.

Dazzling Spirit Light enveloped him.

In the next instant.

His figure vanished from the spot.

Immediately after, Fu Changsheng’s figure appeared with a flicker.

Seeing the lingering spiritual ripple in the air, a trace of surprise flashed in Fu Changsheng’s eyes:

"It’s actually a Small Teleportation Talisman!"

Despite his haste, he was still a step too late.

Fu Changsheng lamented with a sigh.

His Divine Sense swept the area.

His eyes lit up:

"The Life Source Water is still here!"

Fu Changsheng immediately formed a hand seal, broke the restriction, and carefully collected the Life Source Water into a jade bottle.

Just as he was about to turn and leave.

From the corner of the wall came a faint cry.

Turning back to look.

He saw two young All-Seeing Beasts, crying mournfully over another lifeless All-Seeing Beast.

"How pitiful."

These young All-Seeing Beasts had just been born.

If left in this underground cave, they certainly wouldn’t survive long.

Fu Changsheng tapped the Cloud Ring Purple Immortal Tower, and a murky white light from the tower’s first floor fell on the two young All-Seeing Beasts, instantly drawing them inside with a buzzing sound.

After burying the carcass of the young beasts on the spot.

Fu Changsheng lingered no longer, flying away from All-Seeing Mountain, scanning the vicinity a few times. Finding no trace of Gongsun Wen, he then returned to the fief of Pingshan County.

At the same time.

A familiar mechanical voice echoed in his Sea of Divine Sense:

"Ding."

"You have contributed a male and a female young All-Seeing Beast to the clan, earning twenty Contribution Points."

Soon after.

The clan contribution points on the panel updated to three thousand five hundred and twenty.

.....

Gongsun Clan.

When Gongsun Wen returned to the fief, wounded all over.

The scene before him.

Made his face turn pale.

He saw the usually peaceful and harmonious Clan Mountain now surrounded by a swarm of Spirit Fire Foxes like a tide.

"Demon beasts attacking the city!"

How could it be that a beast tide occurred precisely when he left the clan grounds?

This was supposed to be a perfect opportunity to showcase his prowess in front of the clansmen and establish his authority:

"Damn it!"

His trip to All-Seeing Mountain was utterly fruitless.

Not only did he incur serious injuries, but he also lost a Small Teleportation Talisman.

He glanced at the swarm of Spirit Fire Foxes.

A desire to retreat arose in his heart, for approaching now would undoubtedly mean seeking his death. His figure flickered, as he detoured toward the rear mountain, which wasn’t besieged by demon beasts.

At this moment.

The Qi Cultivation Clan Members from the Gongsun Clan had charged out of the array, engaging in battle with the Spirit Fire Foxes, and they saw a Tier Two Thunder Horned Rhinoceros charging towards them from afar.

Dust billowed around.

The numbers were no less than thirty.

Someone shouted loudly:

"Retreat, quickly!"

With that said.

Everyone immediately began retreating towards the array while fighting.

"Eee-yaa!"

The Spirit Fire Foxes, known for their cunning, would not let them have their way.

Their eyes glimmered with a sly light, and they uttered spells that were human-like yet not, instantly shrouding the area with a bluish-green flame. This flame was no ordinary fire; it possessed a bewildering power that induced hallucinations in the Qi Cultivation Clan Members of the Gongsun Clan.

The Gongsun Clan Leader stood atop the main peak of the Clan Mountain, frowning at the scene before him, and turned to the Third Elder, Gongsun Ming:

"Third Brother, lead a few clan members skilled in wind techniques at the Qi Refining Stage, and use the Clear Wind Barrier-Breaking Skill to disperse this Foxfire Illusion Barrier."

"Yes, Patriarch."

Elder Gongsun Ming accepted the order and left.

Meanwhile.

The Tier Two Demon Beast, Thunder Horned Rhinoceros, rapidly reached the foot of the mountain.

Their massive bodies, standing at three zhang tall, were covered in hardened gray scales, with a single horn atop their heads emitting electric light.

Just as the Foxfire Illusion Barrier was about to be dispersed, the Thunder Horned Rhinoceroses launched their attack.

Their hooves thundered.

They charged towards the Mountain Protection Array like a bolt of lightning, and during the run, a dazzling bolt of lightning shot from their horns.

With a loud "boom,"

The lightning struck the Mountain Protection Array.

A single lightning bolt might not pose much of a threat.

But dozens of bolts, one after another, continuously, even the Gongsun Clan’s Mountain Protection Array would struggle to hold.

The entire array trembled violently, the light flickering unsteadily.

Second Elder, Gongsun Run urgently said:

"Patriarch, we must exit the array to face the enemy!"

Otherwise.

The array’s breach was only a matter of time.

There were over thirty Tier Two Thunder Horned Rhinoceroses outside.

The Gongsun Clan Leader replied calmly:

"Second, Fourth, Sixth, you come with me out of the array, the rest stay at the array hub to reinforce the Mountain Protection Array, it must not be breached!"

The four figures flickered.

They emerged from the western side.

The Gongsun Clan Leader swiftly voiced to Gongsun Run:

"Second, lead the Sixth from the side, attract the Thunder Horned Rhinoceroses’ attention, while the Fourth and I will attack them head-on."

"Yes, Patriarch."

Second Elder Gongsun Run and Sixth Elder Gongsun Tang nodded.

As they approached the Thunder Horned Rhinoceroses from the side, the massive, intimidating forms of the beasts loomed before them.
