Chapter 4650: Zhang Clan Immortals

The Zhang family's ancestral land was on Xuanji Continent. Within a certain range, Qingxuan could sense the existence of Dao artifact fragments, making their search very convenient.

With the Ruyi Gate behind them, Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan returned through it, reappearing in their secret chamber.

"This is excellent! With this treasure, it will be very convenient for us to return if our clan encounters trouble," Wang Ruyan said.

"Qingfeng, you stay here. If the Chaos Beasts attack the city, immediately use the Ruyi Gate to go to Xuanji Continent and contact us with a communication artifact," Wang Changsheng instructed.

"Father, how do I use this treasure?" Wang Qingfeng asked.

Wang Changsheng personally taught Wang Qingfeng how to use the Ruyi Gate, having him teleport to various locations until he was thoroughly familiar with its operation.

"Father, this treasure is incredibly powerful!" Wang Qingfeng exclaimed excitedly. He knew that if the outside world discovered the Wang family possessed a treasure capable of freely teleporting to other Immortal Realms, they would surely covet it. Not even a Grand Unity Golden Immortal who mastered the law of space could appear in another Immortal Realm from the Chaos Continent this quickly. Besides teleportation, the artifact could also be used for escape, making its uses extensive.

"That's why you must guard it personally and not let word get out," Wang Changsheng cautioned.

He possessed two mutated Primordial Spirit Treasures: the Ruyi Gate, which could teleport anywhere in the Immortal Realm, and the Lightning Pool, which could generate primordial essences. If news of either treasure leaked, it would bring catastrophe upon the Wang family.

"Understood, Father. You and Mother must be very careful. If the Chaos Beasts attack the city, I will immediately go and notify you," Wang Qingfeng said, sending a magic incantation into the Ruyi Gate, which instantly burst forth with dazzling spiritual light.

Wang Changsheng gave a few more instructions, then he and Wang Ruyan altered their appearances and auras before walking towards the Ruyi Gate.

They passed through the Ruyi Gate, appearing on Xuanji Continent.

"Let's go directly to the Zhang family and first confirm the location of the Dao artifact fragments," Wang Changsheng said. The two flew towards the northwest, quickly disappearing into the horizon.

The Xuanji Mountain Range, located in the southeastern part of Xuanji Continent, consisted of millions of peaks of varying sizes. This was the Zhang family's ancestral land, heavily guarded. The Zhang family had a heritage of over a hundred million years. During its peak, the family boasted more than a dozen Grand Unity Golden Immortals, enjoying unparalleled glory. However, after enduring several great calamities, the Zhang family had declined significantly and was on a downward trend. Zhang Tianxiong was the most cultivated member of the family, possessing a mid-stage Grand Unity Golden Immortal cultivation.

In a certain secret chamber, a tall man in a golden robe sat cross-legged on a golden prayer mat, his eyes slightly closed, his body enveloped in a golden glow.

A sound-transmitting paper crane flew in, circling above his head.

The golden-robed man opened his eyes, a flicker of golden light passing through them. He flicked a finger, and a golden beam shot out, striking the paper crane. The paper crane then spoke in a human voice: "Old Ancestor, two Grand Unity Golden Immortals have arrived, claiming they wish to discuss something with you."

"Grand Unity Golden Immortals visiting?" Zhang Tianxiong's brows furrowed.

He took out a shimmering golden disc, sent an incantation into it, and asked, "Guangkong, do you know the origins of these two individuals?"

"I don't know them, nor have I heard of them. They likely come from other Immortal Realms. From their demeanor, they insist on seeing you," Zhang Guangkong replied.

"Understood. Activate the clan protection formation. I will go meet them," Zhang Tianxiong said, putting away the golden disc and walking out.

On the outskirts of the Xuanji Mountain Range, a young man in a blue shirt with ordinary features and a plump woman in a blue dress stood high in the sky. These were Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan, who had altered their appearances and auras, making them fearless of being recognized.

Zhang Tianxiong flew out. He scrutinized Wang Changsheng from head to toe, then politely asked, "I am Zhang Tianxiong. May I know the names of you two fellow Daoists?"

"My surname is Song, and this is my wife. I have long heard of Fellow Daoist Zhang's renown and wish to spar with you," Wang Changsheng said.

"Sparring?" Zhang Tianxiong was slightly taken aback.

"Is Fellow Daoist Zhang unwilling to offer guidance?" Wang Changsheng asked with a slight smile.

Zhang Tianxiong pondered for a moment, then said, "Very well, I, too, would like to experience Fellow Daoist Song's divine abilities."

He took out a shimmering golden disc, sent an incantation into it, and made a series of gestures. Not long after, a plump woman in a white dress and a short, stout old man in a red robe appeared. Judging by their auras, both were Grand Unity Golden Immortals.

"The Dao artifact fragment is on that stout man," Qingxuan's voice resonated.

Wang Changsheng's gaze swept over them, noticing that the red-robed elder was only at the early Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage.

"This is not a suitable place for combat; let's find another location!" Zhang Tianxiong said, transforming into a streak of light and streaking through the air.

Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan pursued him, followed by the woman in white and the red-robed elder.

After the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, the five appeared above a vast, boundless grassland. Wang Changsheng and Zhang Tianxiong stood ten thousand miles apart, while Wang Ruyan and the other two observed the battle from a distance.

"Since this is a friendly spar, there's no need for much trouble. How about we limit it to three moves?" Zhang Tianxiong suggested. He couldn't discern his opponent's true intentions and had to guard against the possibility of them using the spar as an excuse to deliver a killing blow.

"No problem," Wang Changsheng agreed.

Zhang Tianxiong raised his right hand, and a yellow light shot out, transforming into a gigantic yellow ape, baring its fangs. Judging by its aura, it possessed an early Grand Unity Golden Immortal cultivation.

"Mountain Ape!" Wang Changsheng recognized the yellow ape's origin.

Golden light erupted from Zhang Tianxiong's body as he merged with the yellow ape. The yellow ape's aura rapidly increased to the mid-stage Grand Unity Golden Immortal level, though it did not reach the late stage.

The Zhang family had a long and profound heritage, possessing many external resources that could assist immortals in cultivating Immortal Bodies. Zhang Tianxiong had cultivated an Immortal Body, and his fated spirit beast, the Mountain Ape, had also achieved an Immortal Body. When he merged with his fated spirit beast, his physical strength was formidable.

The yellow ape threw a punch, shattering the void. A colossal yellow fist flashed out, streaking across the sky like a long yellow rainbow, causing the earth to collapse and dust to billow, heading straight for Wang Changsheng.

Wang Changsheng had already put on the Immortal Slaying Gauntlets. This treasure, refined into a Primordial Spirit Treasure, provided a significant boost to the law of strength, making it suitable for Grand Unity Golden Immortals who mastered this law. He threw a punch, and the void within a ten-thousand-mile radius directly collapsed. A gigantic blue fist flashed out, meeting the incoming attack.

The blue fist collided with the yellow fist. The latter shattered like paper, and the blue fist instantly appeared before the yellow ape.

A flicker of surprise crossed the yellow ape's eyes. It opened its mouth and spewed a yellow sound wave, meeting the incoming attack.

The yellow sound wave collided with the blue fist and instantly dissipated.

The yellow ape's brow twitched. Its right fist glowed brightly with yellow light as it met the incoming blue fist.

Its right fist collided with the blue fist, and its body uncontrollably flew backward, crashing heavily onto the ground, creating a massive crater.

Witnessing this, the woman in the white dress and the red-robed man's expressions changed drastically. They quickly flew over, guarding the yellow ape with wary looks on their faces.
