Sovereign to Immortality

Chapter 374 - Peace



Chapter 374 – Peace

Although no one other than the clansmen knew the truth, the serious and solemn expression on the Martial Realm Cultivator’s face showed that something big was going to happen soon.

Half a month later, when Yang Junping returned to the Xishan Village with the newly refined magical equipment, at the same time, he brought with him unexpected news. Since the start of last year’s war with the Sirius Gate, there had been a bloody conflict at the border every ten to fifteen days, and even the Heaven-Shaken Sect cultivators stationed at the border had all gotten used to it.

However, when he returned this time, he found out that it had been almost a month since there was any sort of conflict at the border. It was as if the Sirius Gate and the Opening Spirit School had become quiet, and the peace at the border was a little strange.

Soon after, Han Xiusheng sent back news from the county city. The Great Cauldron Hall could only use their old customer’s relationship and try their best to refine the Spirit Grass that the Yang Family sent to them into pills, but it was impossible for them to purchase other pills, because from three months ago, all of the pills that they refined had already been secretly ordered by the mysterious person.

Yang Tianlei, who had entered the dark market afterwards, also received news that the various high quality spirit materials, spirit pills, magic tools, talismans, and the like were being traded frequently in the dark market. It seemed like there were people secretly hoarding these types of materials.

The Heaven Shaking Courtyard was sealed again. There were people who saw the Meng Yu Guards leave the county, but no one knew where they went.

This kind of spirit material was relatively different from other cultivation materials, and the amount of space it could be used was not much. All these years, the Xishan Village caravan had frequently come to buy some, but instead became one of the big customers in the Jinyu County magnetic mine.

However, from the news they had received regarding the Jinyu County, it seemed like the border had calmed down as well. However, the cultivators in the Heaven Shaking Courtyard of the Jinyu County were frequently mobilized, and there were even rumors of the Heaven-Shaken Sect gathering troops to retaliate against the Jinyu County.

The news that came from the Chenyu County Elementary Brothers also made Yang Junshan feel that something was wrong. Wang Qian was still busy pushing aside the strong powers in the county in order to pave the way for the expansion of the Wang Family;

And the news the two brothers sent over, they repeatedly begged the Yang family’s caravan to deliver more spirit materials, even if it was a Spirit Material Origin Mine, because the supply of spirit materials that the two brothers secretly sold in the Mengyu County’s mines was already insufficient.

At the same time, the Great Yu County also calmed down. It was unknown what deal the two parties to the conflict made in secret, but the Qu family successfully avoided the suppression from the Heaven-Shaken Sect. After that, Yang Qingniu contacted the peak of the Qu family’s direct descendant.

After Yang Qingniu brought out the samples of the middle-grade spirit material, the Cold Mountain Stone, and the high-grade spirit material, the Blue Universe Stone, respectively, and especially after the appearance of the Blue Universe Stone, it caused the two Great Perfection Stage cultivators to be extremely excited, and they decided on the spot to make a deal with the Yang family.

According to the agreement between Yang Qingniu and the Zang family, the Zang family was willing to pay the price of two low-grade magic tools to buy a certain amount of Green Stone and Cold Mountain from the Yang family. However, since the Zang family had to send people to the Xishan Village to get them, the Yang family had to give them as much preferential treatment as possible.

Furthermore, during the conversation with the Zang family’s cultivators, the Zang family’s cultivators were constantly asking about the situation of the big mines in the Sunset Ridge, repeatedly asking if the Yang family could provide other high grade spirit materials for trade, showing their thirst for spirit materials on a large scale.

Although he had successfully completed a huge business deal with the Jie Clan, Yang Junshan was still not the least bit happy. The situation of the Great Yu County seemed to have proven Yang Junshan’s earlier judgement, other than being unfamiliar with the two counties of Yu County Si and Huai, the strange calmness displayed by the other four counties seemed to be more like the calm before a storm. Yang Junshan could even hear the approaching footsteps of danger.

After explaining the recent matters and arrangements of the clan as well as that of the Wasteland Town to Yang Junping, Yang Junshan also went into the secret room at the Spirit Origin of Western Mountain to do his closed door training.

As he sat cross-legged in the secret room and felt the dense spirit energy around him, Yang Junshan couldn’t help but enjoy the feeling. It had been too long since he last devoted himself to cultivating without distractions.

Because of the Triple Spiritual Control Array in the Western Mountain, sixty percent of the spiritual energy produced by the spirit veins in the Spirit Origin Mountain was stored in the Western Mountain. This caused the fog that filled the peak of the Western Mountain to shine with colorful colors in the daytime.

Yang Junshan tapped on the jade box in his hand, and the Soul Sealing Rune fell off. After opening it, there were three scarlet red fruits.

Scarlet Essence Fruit, these were the treasures that Yang Junshan had found in the Sunset Pavilion back then. In order to break through the bottleneck of the great complete realm, he had already used three of them!

Originally, the most suitable way to eat Scarlet Essence Fruits was to refine them into Scarlet Essence Pills, which would then be able to display the maximum effectiveness of the Scarlet Essence Fruit. Unfortunately, there was no alchemist in the Yang Family, and the Scarlet Essence Fruit itself was not small, Yang Junshan was not willing to take it out to incite others to covet it.

Fortunately, the Yang family was not lacking in Scarlet Essence Fruits, and in the Spirit Origin Fruit Tree, there were still a few fruits hanging on them. Yang Tiangang and his son had only eaten the fruits that were previously picked out and preserved in the Sunset Ridge’s cave.

If one Scarlet Essence Fruit could produce three Scarlet Essence Pills, then eating three Scarlet Essence Fruits was more than enough!

Yang Junshan chuckled lightly and directly threw a fruit into his mouth. As he chewed, he circulated the Wutu Spiritual Art to the extreme.

As the fruit was chewed, it turned into a warm stream that flowed from his throat to his stomach. Immediately, like an exploding spark, it seeped into his body and was then driven by the circulating Wutu Earth Spiritual Energy. The warm flow flowed through his entire body over and over again before finally entering into his Dantian.

After an unknown amount of time, after he finished refining the spirit fruit, Yang Junshan opened his eyes from within the secret room. His eyes sparkled in the darkness, he could clearly feel the increase in his cultivation, but it was not the kind of berserk type increase, but a gradual increase in strength. In the end, a portion of the medicinal power entered his dantian, just like the magma that was stored underground in a volcano, once the time was ripe, it could gush out.

Yang Junshan took out another Spirit Fruit from the jade box and swallowed it. After going through a similar process, he once again absorbed the Spirit Qi that he had not refined before into his Dantian, but the effects were weaker than the first time.

By the time Yang Junshan had completely refined the three Spirit Fruits, three months had already passed.

And after three months of closed door cultivation, Yang Junshan had faintly touched upon the barrier of the great complete realm. Just as he was hesitating whether he should continue with his closed door cultivation and break through the barrier in a single go to reach great complete realm, the dense spirit energy that filled his surroundings disappeared in an instant.

Yang Junshan could no longer maintain his cultivation, after an instant of being shocked, Yang Junshan suddenly reacted, and rushed out of the secret room, flying as he ran to the center of the cave controlling all the formations inside the Xishan Village.

Just as he arrived at the central cave, he heard the gurgling sound of water coming from the Spirit Spring in the cave, which was even more urgent than before. When he saw the Spirit Spring, he realized that the Spirit Spring’s Spirit Spring had condensed into a finger-thick milky white line, and was floating towards the secret room at the back of the cave. The Spirit Spring Water was gathering all the Spirit Spring Water in the cave, and the Spirit Spring was pouring into the secret room where Yang Tiangang had been cultivating for the past year.

At this time, if someone were to raise their head and look at the sky above the western mountain, they would realize that the Western Mountain, which usually emitted seven colored rays of light under the sun, was covered by a layer of grey fog.

Yang Junshan stood on a gigantic formation plate made from the entire floor of the central cave, and poured the storage bag at his waist down. With a crashing sound, a small group of coins made of Jade Coins and crystal coins were piled up on the ground.

Then, Yang Junshan kicked the pile of coins, causing the scattered coins to follow Yang Junshan’s control and accurately embedded themselves into different parts of the array disc below his feet. After that, Yang Junshan poured the Wutu Earth Spiritual Energy into the array disc, only the runes on the huge array disc were lit up, and under Yang Junshan’s control, the control of the Three Elements Control Array quietly started to increase, controlling the fluctuations of the Spirit Qi.

Just as Yang Junshan was about to take control of the Three Elements Cards with his own hands, a violent burst of spirit energy undulations suddenly burst out from the previous secret room, as though a storm was blowing in the middle of the cave, a terrifying imposing manner filled the entire central cave. Because Yang Junshan was distracted, he controlled the formation to suppress the spirit energy undulations and did not spread further, he was flipped over on the ground and almost touched the stone wall of the cave.

The light from the array glyphs on the ground could not be extinguished. It was obvious that the Triple Spiritual Control Array was already operating at its peak state. The spirit energy that was being emitted from the secret chamber was about to break through the suppression of the formation.

I can’t let this wave of spiritual energy spread out!

At this time, the terrifying aura that permeated the cave had even started to suppress his cultivation. The energy of the soil was extremely obscure, Yang Junshan clenched his teeth, he suddenly fell down on the wall, looking like a bug that was ready to pounce and attack at any moment, impressively, this was the Tiger Subduing Diagram of the Eight Diagrams.

The Wutu Spiritual Art circulated with all his might in his body, squeezing out every single drop of spirit energy. He could even clearly hear the bones in his body making creaking sounds under the immense pressure.

Finally, under his perseverance, the Triple Slash Spirit Spell did not crumble from the terrifying force, but once the Qi had reached its peak, it started to converge slowly. The pressure was gradually weakening, but Yang Junshan suddenly realised that he was probably going to collapse soon.
