itions, where even successful recognition results in a five-day period spent underground before reappearance, this situation is unprecedented.Thus, people gathered before the hall, waiting patiently....Under everyone's gaze, Murong Cholong slowly climbed up from under the tree, opened his mouth and spat out another mouthful of blood. He looked extremely miserable.

"Old man, do you want to fight again Just cripple yourself and I'll spare your life."

Ye Bufan was not a bloodthirsty person by nature and did not want to kill indiscriminately. However, he would never leave himself any potential threats.

If we let a Saint-Rank expert go and allow them to hide in the shadows to launch a surprise attack, the consequences would be unimaginable. Therefore, the only way for them to survive is to forfeit their cultivation.

"Ye Bufan, this is your fault. Even if I have to die, I will drag you down to hell with me."

Murong Chenglong grinned sinisterly, his eyes filled with venomous hatred.

"Senior, I offer you this physical body of mine. However, you must help me slay this junior before us and eliminate everyone from the three great clans."

All the people downstairs looked at him in bewilderment. Besides Ye Bufan and a few others, there was no one else present. Who was he talking to Had he gone mad

And just then, a raspy, grating voice echoed through the air, "Very well, old man, I accept your request."

As soon as the words left his mouth, Murong Chenglong's entire aura underwent a drastic shift. A powerful aura, several times stronger than before, swept across the entire arena, leaving no trace of his previous weakness after being injured.

He rose slowly from the ground, a haughty expression on his face, as if he were a different person altogether.

"What's going on Could it be the Grand Elder's secret technique"

"Doesn't seem like it, I think someone just called someone else senior a moment ago..."

People were stunned by the scene before them, but couldn't fathom what was happening.

Ye Bufan's divine sense swept across, discovering that the injuries on Murong Chenglong's body had instantly healed, and his cultivation had also broken through to the mid-Saint stage.

The most crucial point is that the entire person's aura has changed, completely different from before. Their whole body emanates a chilling and evil presence.

"This... this is possession"

"Haha, the kid's right. It wasn't a forceful takeover though, he willingly gave it to me."

Murong Chenglong stepped out with one foot, standing proudly in mid-air, with his hands clasped behind him. His aura was incredibly powerful, just like a king overlooking the world.

Ye Bufan asked: "Who are you"

"It has been many years since I last spoke to anyone. Allow me, the old man, to tell you a story," Murong Chenglong said. "I am the Ancestor of Setting Sun, and a thousand years ago, I discovered this ancient site."

I originally intended to profit from it, but I didn't expect that there were hidden dangers everywhere. In the end, my physical body met an unfortunate demise, leaving only a wisp of my soul behind.

For a thousand years, I was trapped inside, utterly alone. It was unbearable until a few weeks ago when someone finally entered the site again.

Over this millennium, I have thoroughly deciphered the restrictions within the site and am now guiding this physical form to obtain the opportunities it holds.

Of course, the ancestor also had a condition, that is, to allow my soul to attach itself to his body and leave that site.

At first, the old geezer wasn't willing. But later, trapped there and unable to get out, seeing that he was about to starve to death, he finally agreed to my demands.

Under my guidance, he managed to break through to the Martial Saint realm. Otherwise, with his current cultivation, it would be a long way off for him to achieve that breakthrough.

Upon hearing the explanation from the ancestor of Ziyanyang, everyone finally understood. No wonder Murong Chenglong had suddenly broken through and ascended to become a Martial Saint. It turned out he had obtained a fortuitous encounter within an ancient site.

"Originally, the old ancestor's plan was to recover a certain amount of strength before taking over this body."

"I never expected him to give it up willingly today. It's truly a blessing that I, the ancestor, can finally see the light of day again, hahaha..."

"Speaking of which, Patriarch Zanyang burst into laughter, then turned to Ye Bufan and the others, "However, since this old man has taken his physical body, I will fulfill his wish. You all wait to die!"

"Uh..."

Another wave of shock rippled through the audience. This family gathering was truly exhilarating, like a rollercoaster with twists and turns at every corner.

I originally thought the Murong family was finished, but I didn't expect that Murong Chenglong would summon another remnants ancestor with his own flesh.

It's unbelievable that something like possession could actually happen. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it was real.

"Heaven has eyes, it seems that God won't destroy the Zhong family…"

The Zhong family father and son scrambled to their feet, their faces beaming with excitement, as if they had seen hope anew.

And so it was with the people of the Murong family. Although two martial saint-level experts had just died, if the Ancestor of Setting Sun could destroy the three major families, then they would become the masters of the Imperial City, the only superfamily.

Some rejoice, others sorrow. The three great clans had just let their worries go, but now their hearts are filled with dread again. This Sunset Patriarch seems much stronger than Murong Cholong. Now Ye Bufan is in trouble.

"Boy, I'll admit you have some skill, but you're nowhere near my level, old man. Surrender and die, and perhaps I'll leave your body intact."

The Patriarch of Sunset swept his gaze over the few people present, with an air of arrogance.

"Old Ghost, you are so arrogant! Let me show you what my lightning is like..."

Xie Changsi's temper was explosive. After speaking, he unleashed the Five Thunderclap Technique. First, five massive bolts of lightning gathered above his head, then transforming into thick arms-sized lightning strikes, accompanied by thunderous roars, they charged towards Patriarch Zanyang.

Witnessing the power of lightning, the crowd at the foot of the mountain paled in unison, only then realizing that Xie Changsi hadn't exerted his full strength earlier.

"The Five Thunders Taoist Method Looks decent, but it's still a bit off compared to the Ancestor."

The Patriarch of Setting Sun looked down on them with disdain. With a grab of his right hand, he transformed into a gigantic True Yuan hand, capturing all the lightning in its palm. Then, he dispelled the five massive thunderbolts above his head.

"Um..."

Xie Changsi was startled. This was the first time he had seen anyone break a thunder spell like this.

"Wow, Ancestor Residual Sun is so powerful! Now the three great families are finished..."

Seeing that the Patriarch of Sunset had effortlessly broken the Five Thunders Strike, the Zhong family father and son immediately jumped up with excitement. The Murong family erupted in cheers.

"Watch the punches!"

Huang Xiaomei let out a furious shout, then unleashed a series of Shadowless Divine Punches.

"Oh, the Shadowless Divine Fist It has some interest, but it's useless against this old ancestor."

The Ancient Ancestor of the Setting Sun stood with his hands behind his back, arrogant and tall, having actually used his powerful protective true qi to withstand the Shadowless Divine Fist.

And just then, Yiruoxiang's figure suddenly vanished, appearing behind Patriarch Zanyáng. First, a Soul-Severing Blade slashed towards his nape, followed by a punch aimed at his heart.

The Setting Sun Ancestor apparently didn't expect the opponent to possess both teleportation and Soul Severing Blade techniques. Caught off guard, he was momentarily stunned and struck in the heart by Yiluo Xiang's punch.

He was simply too powerful, his protective qi incredibly formidable. This punch only sent him flying several dozen meters away and didn't inflict serious damage.

"A soul attack Not bad, but your mental energy is too weak."

Zhan Yang the ancestor turned around, his eyes leering at Yi Luo Xiang.

"Little one, you're quite pretty. And a virgin to boot. I haven't touched a woman in a thousand years, become my consort and I'll spare your life."

"You're dreaming."

Yiluoxiang let out a furious roar and launched another attack.

At the same time, Xie Changsi and Huang Xiaomei also made their move, and the three of them launched a joint attack against Patriarch Ziyanyang.
