I only reached the Foundation Establishment stage at eighty years old, and then the system appeared.

Yang Hongbo led the group to stroll around the immortal city for a while before leaving.

After leaving the immortal city, they continued their journey and arrived at a treacherous mountain range. This mountain range was steep and rugged, with peaks soaring into the clouds and shrouded in mist, as if it concealed countless secrets.

"This mountain range looks quite mysterious. How about we go in and explore it?" Yang Hongbo said.

One of the Great Luo Golden Immortals said, "Master, there are probably many dangers hidden in this mountain range. We should be careful."

Yang Hongbo nodded and said, "That's right, everyone be careful."

They cautiously entered the mountains, where they encountered various powerful monsters and treacherous terrain. But relying on their strength and rich experience, they escaped danger time and time again.

"The world of the immortal realm is not much different from the lower realm. The strong bully the weak, powerful clans oppress smaller clans, and there is no shortage of cheating and swindling," a Golden Immortal realm expert lamented.

Yang Hongbo said, "Yes, there is a distinction between good and evil everywhere. Since we have this strength, we should do our best to uphold fairness and justice in this immortal realm."

Deep in the mountains, they discovered an ancient ruin. This ruin was shrouded in a powerful barrier, exuding a mysterious aura.

"These ruins probably hide a lot of treasures. Let's find a way to break the restrictions and go in to take a look," Yang Hongbo said.

The group began to study the restrictions, and after some effort, they finally broke through them and entered the ruins.

However, once inside, everyone discovered that the place was filled with white bones, and the bones of the immortals were so hardened that it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them special steel.

But what are those fragments of bone beneath the white skeleton? These hardened bones, broken into this state, must have been there for at least tens of millions of years, right?

Suddenly, a hoarse, raspy voice echoed in everyone's minds: "Hehehe, what a great day! No one's come in all these years, but so many people have shown up this time! We can finally feast to our hearts' content!"

"Who are you? What do you want to do?"

"Haha, who am I? I'll tell you all about it after I've got you under control."

At this moment, a small worm formed from the soul shadow appeared before everyone's souls, and it was trying its best to burrow into each person's soul!

What it didn't know was that these people's souls had already been controlled by a guy called "System," otherwise they wouldn't have recognized Yang Hongbo as their master.

If this little thing were to enter your soul, even it would be forced to recognize you as its master.

"Ah... How is this possible? I can't control you at all, what are you things?"

Yang Hongbo, being only at the Human Immortal Realm, was not taken seriously by this guy at all. With so many Golden Immortals and Great Luo Golden Immortals, who would want to control a mere Human Immortal Realm cultivator?

At this moment, each person's spirit realized that the little worm posed no threat to them, so they immediately reached out their large hands, grabbed the little worm, and threw it into their spirit's mouth.

"Hey, not bad! This little bug actually improved my cultivation by a tiny bit!"

At that moment, on an altar in the center of the ruins, a dark figure was angrily cursing, "What on earth happened? Where have all my clones gone?"

Yang Hongbo asked everyone, "What's wrong with you all?"

"Master, just now, someone tried to control us, but the little insects that formed from that person's soul couldn't enter our souls. In fact, they were devoured by our souls, which slightly boosted our cultivation!"

"These bones scattered all over the ground are those of the immortals he controlled and whose flesh and blood he absorbed!"

"So, in other words, he wanted to devour you, but instead, you devoured him!"

"Yes, Master!"

"Damn! Such a good thing! Let's find this guy. You're all at the peak of your cultivation level now; hopefully, devouring him will allow you to level up!"

So everyone began searching deeper into the ruins, while the creature in the center of the ruins kept splitting off its clones from the altar and flying outwards from the ruins.

Yang Hongbo and his group kept encountering soul shadow clones. These clones hadn't seen any living beings for millions of years. Upon seeing these fragrant flesh and blood bodies, they immediately swarmed into each person's soul sea and attacked their souls!

Even Yang Hongbo, a mere Immortal Realm cultivator, had a few small insects crawl into his soul sea. However, Yang Hongbo's body contained a powerful figure called "System."

All the soul shadow clones were devoured by everyone's divine souls, and immediately, everyone's cultivation level increased rapidly. Everyone began to advance, and even Yang Hongbo advanced to the Earth Immortal Realm.

Outside the protective barrier of this ruin, a massive lightning tribulation formation appeared. Unfortunately, this barrier was too powerful; the heavenly lightning tribulation of dozens of people could not even budge it in the slightest!

On the altar at the center of the ruins, the dark figure was starting to panic. Because a small crack had appeared on the altar, it could only allow the split soul to go out. However, if the soul was not brought back, he would not know what the situation was like outside!

"Why? What on earth happened outside? How could my Black Flame Emperor's avatar be in trouble? It was bad enough that no one had entered the ruins for millions of years, but now, in this one moment, more than half of the essence and spirit I absorbed over tens of millions of years has vanished. Who can I complain to?"

At this moment, Yang Hongbo and his group approached the altar and discovered a dark figure on it, who in turn noticed the group of outsiders.

"Who are you? Did you devour my clone?!" the dark figure on the altar roared in fury!

"Master, this is a huge thing!"

"He was trapped by this altar and couldn't get out, but the trapping formation on the altar cracked open, allowing him to split his soul out."

"It's a pity he now knows we can devour his soul, otherwise we could have waited for him to continue splitting his soul!"

"Master, I think a binding formation only binds him. We can attack him from the outside, break his body apart, and then we can absorb the energy he releases through this crack!"

Yang Hongbo said, "I have a Heavenly Thunder Technique that can simulate a lightning tribulation. Let me strike him a few times first!"

Yang Hongbo silently recited the incantation, and instantly a magic array simulating lightning tribulation appeared above the altar, with lightning bolts striking down on the dark figure on the altar.

"Ah, you bastards! I am the Black Flame Emperor! How dare you disregard me like this? If I go out, I will tear you apart and burn your souls to ashes."

"Haha, we'll have to wait until you get out of here!"

"Oh my god, look! It's coming out! It's coming out!"

"Master, please absorb first. We'll come back after you've eaten your fill."

"He says he is an emperor, so his body energy can at least supply tens of thousands of us Great Luo Golden Immortals."

"Set up a teleportation array here and summon the Immortal King and the others!"

Yang Hongbo took out a teleportation array plate, set up the teleportation array, and sent someone back to fetch people.

Soon, all the immortals in the immortal legion, those at the Immortal Lord level and above, began to appear in turn, and Yang Hongbo also brought all his closest family members over.

This group of closest family members includes ancestors, grandfathers, fathers and mothers, uncles and aunts, brothers and sisters, wife, children, and so on—a total of several hundred people!

They were all below the Human Immortal realm and could not devour too much Emperor-level energy. For example, Yang Hongbo, an Earth Immortal, could devour an energy body the size of a peanut at once, while they could only devour an energy body the size of a speck of dust.

However, this small energy body is enough for them to advance to the Human Immortal Realm. Moreover, there is a super protective shield here, so there is no need to worry about the lightning tribulation when breaking through here.

"Haha, my husband, I've broken through to the Immortal realm!"

"Me too, my husband, thank you so much!"

While everyone was busy breaking through their limits, the dark figure on the altar was enduring the lightning tribulation while cursing angrily. His cultivation level was also slowly declining, and it had now dropped to the peak of the Immortal Emperor realm.

After ascending to the level of immortals, Yang Hongbo's patriarch, grandfather, parents, and sister all gathered around him, saying, "Hongbo (elder brother), our Yang family is so fortunate to have produced such a true dragon as you!"

The eyes of the parents and sister were filled with fervent tears. It was their son (the eldest brother) who enabled ordinary people like them to become immortals!

After becoming an immortal, one can live as long as heaven and earth, and being together as a family is the most perfect thing!
