As for me, I must first visit the ancient site of the Ancient Sword Community of the Mountain Range, then head north to explore its mysteries, ensuring the everlasting stability of my Formless Race."

Tang Xiaokong suddenly said, "Xiaohan, this is our ancestor."

Earlier, he did not mention it because the young man was reluctant to reveal it. Now that the young man had introduced himself, he certainly had to come forward for the junior to address him.

Song Yan bowed, just about to salute, when Tang Yanzhang waved his hand and said, "Don't call!"

Tang Xiaokong knew the ancestor's temper was eccentric and often surprising, so he said no more.

Tang Yanzhang said, "Five hundred years later, we will meet in the East, and it will be fine if you call me Big Brother then. For now... don't call anything, it's meaningless!"

Song Yan bowed and said, "Yes."

Tang Yanzhang raised his hand and flicked a Five-Colored Token out.

Tang Xiaoping was surprised and said, "Ancestor, only two of the three tests are completed."

Tang Yanzhang said, "Whether or not he passes the third test doesn't matter; this kid is qualified to live here."

After speaking, he nudged his mouth, "Residence token, shouldn't you take it?"

Song Yan took the token and said, "Thank you."

In his heart, he also breathed a sigh of relief.

He hadn't expected that after two tests, he would already have successfully obtained the "residency rights of Gusha Mountain."

However, he couldn't help but marvel at the vastness of the world. The ancestor before him was clearly of the Divine Infant Realm, and yet... even he had to travel east to investigate. And according to what he himself said, the Ancient Sword Community of the Mountain Range must also have the Divine Infant Realm. Yet they... have entirely disappeared from this continent, heading north.

Since the North can be related to the life and death of the Ancient Race, there is no doubt it's something that can completely control the Ancient Race.

He entered the Formless Ancient Race, gaining a protective umbrella and immense benefits and conveniences, but he also simultaneously took on some of the Formless Ancient Race's cause-and-effect. Just like those who are close to him, Song Yan, will inevitably also bear his cause-and-effect. If a crisis to suppress him arises, those involved will be implicated.

The Formless Ancient Race is no different.

In the Jianghu, one cannot act on their own accord.

In the Cultivator Realm, is there truly no difference?

While pondering, a faint voice came from afar, interrupting his thoughts.

"If you want to thank someone, thank yourself." Tang Yanzhang replied, sitting down again, watching the distance with interest, glancing at Tang Xiaoping and saying, "Continue."

Tang Xiaoping did not know what more to say, as the clan rules clearly state that one must achieve great merit or pass all three tests to reside in Gusha Mountain.

But this ancestor is notorious for "treating etiquette and law as dirt." He doesn't care about any clan rules, otherwise, he wouldn't do things like "giving the token early just because he found someone agreeable" or "letting the junior call him Big Brother."

At this moment, Tang Xiaoping could only hope Song Yan could successfully pass the third test.

After a brief digression, Tang Xiaoping looked at Song Yan and said, "The third technique, although based on the principles of refining profound techniques, has never been successfully used by anyone in the Refining Profound Realm. This technique, founded on the previous two, uses the visualization of military formations and harbors intense hatred and killing intent to activate it, not just mere mimicry of technique trajectory."

Song Yan listened intently to his uncle's explanation, then said calmly, "Uncle, please."

Tang Xiaoping said, "Watch closely!

This technique is called Three Steps to Heaven."

With that, a light suddenly shone before his eyes as he took a step forward.

In one step, he tread atop Chenggen Mountain, his hands flipping the Profound Mountain Nine Stacks, gathering the Earth Profound Qi, and twisting the Profound Qi, making this seemingly calm elder momentarily appear like a battlefield war god.

Two steps, three steps...

With each step, his aura grew, and the Profound Qi stacked up, deepening further in its integration with the earth.

After three steps, he held his left hand behind him, raised his head, and clenched his right fist, gathering all his power at that point, then lightly tapped towards the sky.

The sky, originally a sea of flowing clouds with Xuanque birds flying, but with his light tap, the sea of clouds immediately fell, becoming empty; a moment ago, clouds covered the sky, now the sky is cloudless, even the Xuanque birds in the clouds all fell like rain, even if they were not within the range of this punch, they plummeted from high above.

This was not merely a one-time shock but a power with immense penetration and spreading force, involving profound and advanced uses of Profound Qi.

Knocking the heavens, sweeping the clouds from the sky.

If used to attack enemies, the outcome would be clear.

After performing this move, Tang Xiaoping said, "Three Steps to Heaven, this technique's power has surpassed most Crimson Palace Techniques, even with a bloodline, it's at most equal. Xiaohan, you have half a day to comprehend this body and spirit technique, focusing all into one. If you can achieve the semblance of it in half a day, it will be considered a success."

Song Yan did not overestimate himself, nodded, then sat cross-legged, and began to ponder.

This technique is extremely difficult.

Its difficulty surpasses that of "Chenggen Mountain Technique."

If "Chenggen Mountain Technique" and "Profound Mountain Nine Stacks" were the seed and green leaves of a flower, then... this technique is the blooming flower.

The flower, resplendent, dazzling.

If the flower hadn't bloomed, everything before it would seem meaningless, even ridiculously comical.

Without this technique, regardless of "Profound Mountain Nine Stacks" or "Chenggen Mountain Technique," they are just clever tricks.

But with it, this power instantly breaks through the Crimson Palace.

This... is a technique capable of allowing one in the Refining Profound Realm to leap a major realm and take down the Crimson Palace Realm purely with technique power.

However, this technique is ultimately not within the Nine Palace Blood, it belongs solely to the use of Profound Qi, truly, there wouldn't be someone who would spend a lot of time understanding this technique.

Those without comprehension won't figure it out in a lifetime.

Those with comprehension, have long gone to break through the Crimson Palace, the Purple Mansion.
