I was reborn as a young master in an invincible family of immortals

The entire world of immortal cultivation was abuzz with excitement over the impending war, and within each sect, a bustling scene erupted. Led by their elders, the disciples diligently and methodically undertook various preparations.

Expertly skilled in alchemy, the elders led the disciples in the medicine garden, working day and night to refine elixirs of various efficacy. There were the Soul-Restoring Pills, which instantly restored a significant amount of spiritual energy, for emergency use when spiritual energy was depleted during battle; and the healing elixir, the Bone-Regenerating Pills, which rapidly repaired injuries, ensuring that even those wounded in fierce battle could return to the battlefield as quickly as possible. Within the medicine garden, the fires burned brightly, the air filled with the fragrance of elixirs, and everyone's face shone with seriousness and concentration.

The area responsible for refining magical weapons was bustling with activity. Skilled artisans meticulously forged precious materials and spiritual ores, crafting one powerful weapon after another. Some were powerful offensive spiritual swords, their blades inscribed with intricate spiritual runes, unleashing a piercing sword aura with a single swing. Others were highly defensive spiritual armor, capable of withstanding powerful spiritual attacks and protecting the wearer in critical moments. Disciples lined up to receive their respective magical weapons, their eyes filled with anticipation and anxiety for the upcoming battle.

Meanwhile, combat instructors from various sects were conducting combat drills with their disciples, simulating various possible combat scenarios and teaching them how to best leverage their own strengths, coordinate with their teammates, and achieve coordinated offense and defense. On the training grounds, spiritual energy shone brightly, and shouts of killing echoed incessantly, as everyone prepared with all their might for the impending battle.

While busy preparing for war, the various sects also maintained close intelligence exchanges. The cultivators responsible for intelligence collection and analysis gathered together to integrate and exchange the latest information they had gathered about the mysterious forces.

They discovered that the mysterious forces seemed to have sensed the possibility of their plans being leaked and were acting more cautiously. They were increasing the defenses of their various strongholds, adding numerous protective barriers and deploying numerous experts to garrison. Furthermore, the mysterious individuals who had been scattered throughout the area, stirring up trouble, were beginning to withdraw, seemingly concentrating their forces to prepare for any potential attack.

"It seems this mysterious force is also preparing for our counterattack. We must not let our guard down," an intelligence elder said with a frown, and the other cultivators nodded in agreement. They immediately decided to intensify their intelligence gathering efforts, sending out more spies to closely monitor the mysterious force's every move, striving to gain more detailed information about them before the war, so as to formulate a more precise battle plan.

Inside a hidden underground palace, the leaders of a mysterious force gathered to discuss countermeasures. The palace was dimly lit, and the walls were inlaid with gemstones that emitted an eerie glow, reflecting on the gloomy faces of the crowd. The atmosphere was oppressive and heavy.

"Hmph, I didn't expect those guys to find out our plan and steal important information. We were really careless this time." A man in a black robe and mask who looked like a leader snorted coldly, his tone full of anger.

"Chief, they will definitely attack our various strongholds based on the intelligence. Should we move our stronghold in advance, or set a trap and give them a head-on blow?" One of the subordinates suggested cautiously.

After a moment's contemplation, the leader slowly said, "Moving our base too hastily could expose more secrets. Furthermore, we've painstakingly cultivated these bases for years, so we can't just abandon them. However, setting a trap is a good idea. Let's do it! Notify the leaders of each base and have them act according to our plan. We must make those sects that dare to oppose us pay a heavy price!"

The other senior leaders responded one after another, and then dispersed to convey orders and prepare for the upcoming war. A contest of wisdom and strength was about to take place fiercely in this world of immortal cultivation.

Lin Yun and others, as important forces in this fight against the mysterious forces, are also making intensive preparations for the war.

Lin Yun traveled alone to a secluded spot in the sect's back mountains. He retrieved the staff he had obtained from the mysterious valley and began a period of secluded cultivation, attempting to further enhance his connection with the staff and unlock its deeper power. During this practice, he repeatedly poured his spiritual energy into the staff, sensing its flow and resonance. Over time, a closer connection between him and the staff seemed to develop, and as he swung it, the spiritual attacks he unleashed were even more powerful and forceful than before.

In the quiet bamboo forest, Su Yao repeatedly played the Lingxi Jade Flute, constantly adjusting the coordination of spiritual power and rhythm, making the spiritual blades more powerful and extending the attack range. She also tried to create some new spiritual power and rhythm combinations, hoping to strike the enemy unexpectedly in the battle. Every time she played, spiritual power surged in the bamboo forest, and the bamboo leaves fluttered, as if playing a pre-battle war song.

Chen Yu traversed the mountains and forests, utilizing the complex terrain to further hone his stealth and tracking skills. He wanted to ensure that on the battlefield, he could more stealthily approach the enemy, obtain crucial intelligence, or deliver a fatal blow at a crucial moment. In the mountains and forests, his figure could often be seen fleeting like a ghost, leaving behind only a faint wave of spiritual energy.

Wang Lin was immersed in her rune-restriction research room, poring over a vast collection of ancient texts, attempting to identify powerful restrictions that could prove crucial in a major war. She would refine and innovate them, crafting even more lethal and defensive rune formations. Papers covered in runes lay piled high on her desk. Sometimes her brow furrowed in thought, sometimes her eyes gleamed, lost in the wondrous world of runes, preparing more "secret weapons" for the coming battle.

Zhao Gang, meanwhile, spent the sect's martial arts training grounds continuously strengthening his defensive skills, engaging in sparring with other disciples, honing his ability to respond to various types of attacks. Every time his shield collided with the attack, a dull thud echoed. Amidst the interweaving radiance of spiritual energy, his figure became increasingly resolute and steady, like an unshakable fortress, ready to protect his teammates and the sect in the midst of battle.

As preparations for war gradually draw to a close, various sects hold pre-war mobilization meetings to boost the morale of their disciples.

In the sect square where Lin Yun was standing, the head elder stood atop a high platform. His gaze swept across the neatly arranged disciples below with a dignified and resolute look, and he spoke loudly, "Fellow disciples, this time we face a mysterious force that seeks to disrupt the world of immortal cultivation and pursue selfish gains. They have committed countless evil deeds and brought disaster to countless immortal cultivators. Now, we have grasped part of their plan and are fully prepared. This battle concerns the survival of our world of immortal cultivation and whether our loved ones and friends can continue to live in peace and stability on this land. I believe that as long as we work together and exert our respective strengths, we will surely defeat the enemy and protect our homeland!"

The words of the head elder were powerful. After hearing them, the disciples in the audience were all excited, with the flames of fighting spirit burning in their eyes. They shouted in unison: "Protect the world of immortal cultivation and eliminate the mysterious forces!" The sound resounded through the sky and echoed throughout the sect. The high morale seemed to have turned into tangible power, making everyone full of the belief that they would win.

The same is true for other sects. There is an atmosphere of shared hatred and solidarity everywhere. The immortal cultivators are ready to show their skills in the upcoming war and contribute their own strength to protect the immortal cultivation world.

Although all parties are almost ready, in order to ensure that everything is foolproof, each sect decided to send out several elite teams to conduct a secret exploration of several important strongholds of the mysterious forces before the war to see if there are any new situations and to verify the accuracy of previous intelligence.

Lin Yun and the others once again volunteered to take on the mission. They cautiously approached the target stronghold, relying on their extensive experience to avoid numerous traps and hidden sentries along the way. As they neared the stronghold, they discovered that, as predicted by the intelligence, its defenses had indeed been significantly strengthened. Various spiritual restrictions surrounded the stronghold, emitting a faintly dangerous aura. Furthermore, the number of patrolling cultivators from the mysterious faction had increased significantly, and their vigilance was extremely high. Any slight disturbance could provoke a fierce battle.

"Everyone, be careful. Observe first and see if you can find any flaws in these restrictions or weak links in their defense." Lin Yun whispered. Everyone used their abilities to hide their auras, dispersed, and began to carefully explore around the stronghold, hoping to find some key clues before the battle to increase their chances of winning the final decisive battle.

During his investigation, Chen Yu, with his keen senses, spotted a rather suspicious movement. He saw a small group of cultivators from a mysterious force, not following their regular patrol route, but quietly heading towards a valley behind their stronghold. The valley looked ordinary, but these people's behavior exuded a sense of mystery, as if they were hiding some unspeakable secret.

"Senior Brother Lin Yun, there's something going on over there. I think something's a little off. Should we go over and take a look?" Chen Yu said to Lin Yun in a low voice.

After thinking for a moment, Lin Yun nodded and said, "Okay, let's follow them carefully. They might have some important arrangements that may affect our subsequent battle plans."

So, everyone quietly followed the group of cultivators and sneaked into the depths of the valley. They were very careful along the way, for fear of being discovered. What secrets were hidden in the valley made everyone's heart tighten. The tense atmosphere became more and more thick, and the situation on the eve of the war seemed to have more variables.

After following the group of cultivators into the valley, everyone discovered that while seemingly tranquil, it actually held a hidden secret. A light mist permeated the valley, through which one could faintly discern strange devices placed throughout. These devices were engraved with runes, which glowed eerily, as if they were preparing for something.

Going further in, they saw a huge spiritual power formation slowly operating at the end of the valley. The spiritual power lights in the formation intertwined to form a huge vortex. The center of the vortex seemed to be connected to another space, exuding a mysterious and dangerous aura.

"What kind of formation is this? It doesn't look simple. Are they planning a bigger conspiracy?" Su Yao said softly, her eyes full of confusion and vigilance.

Lin Yun frowned, a bad feeling welling up in his heart. He knew this mysterious formation was definitely related to the upcoming war. He had to quickly figure out its function and how to break it, otherwise it would likely pose an unexpected and huge threat to his side. He immediately signaled everyone to remain hidden and observe carefully, hoping to find more clues about the formation.

Hiding in a secluded area of ​​the valley, everyone focused on observing the massive spiritual power formation, attempting to analyze its principles and functions. Wang Lin, with her deep understanding of rune restrictions, discerned some clues. She whispered to the group, "Judging from the arrangement of the runes and the direction of spiritual power flow, this formation appears to be a teleportation formation, but it also appears to have undergone some special modifications. I'm not sure of its specific purpose, but it's likely used to transport large numbers of troops or supplies. Perhaps they intend to use this formation to launch a surprise attack during a major battle."

Everyone's faces grew serious upon hearing this, feeling that Wang Lin's speculation made sense. If the mysterious force really intended to use this formation to launch a surprise attack at a critical moment, then their own defense deployment would likely be disrupted, putting them in a passive position.

"No matter what they want to do, we have to find a way to destroy this formation and we must not let their conspiracy succeed." Lin Yun gritted his teeth and said firmly, but looking at the huge formation in operation and the tight protection force around it, it was not easy to destroy it. Everyone fell into deep thought again and began to think about feasible destruction plans. The shadow of the war also became more and more heavily shrouded in everyone's heart with the emergence of this mysterious formation.

After some discussion, they decided to start by attacking the key rune nodes of the formation, to see if destroying these nodes could disrupt its operation. Lin Yun and the others cautiously approached the formation, keeping a constant eye out for patrolling cultivators from the mysterious force and for any possible triggering of the formation's own defense mechanisms.

However, just as they were approaching a key rune node, something unexpected happened. A patrolling cultivator seemed to sense something was amiss and walked towards them, shouting, "Who's there? Come out!"

Everyone's heart instantly leaped into their throats. They hurriedly stopped, concealing their presence, and nervously awaited the other party's next move. However, the cultivator did not leave. Instead, he continued walking towards them, his magic weapon tightly grasped in his hand, clearly sensing danger and ready to strike. A sudden crisis had arrived, plunging everyone into an extremely dangerous situation. Whether they could resolve this crisis and successfully destroy the formation became a key factor in determining the outcome of the battle.
