Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Chapter 1645: Chapter 1011: Sky Cloud Yang Family

Yang Zhenshan’s lips curved in a smile as he took out two porcelain bottles. ”These are for you!”

”What are they?” Zhongli Xiayi looked at the porcelain bottles in front of her and asked doubtfully.

”A top-grade Demon Essence Pill and Spirit Pine Mushroom!” Yang Zhenshan said.

Zhongli Xiayi’s mouth fell open. She didn’t know what Spirit Pine Mushroom was, but she definitely knew what a top-grade Demon Essence Pill was.

In fact, it wasn’t that hard for her to obtain a top-grade Demon Essence Pill, but she would have to pay a hefty price for it.

Yet now Yang Zhenshan was actually going to give her one directly; this felt unbelievable to her.

”For me?”

”Mm, take them. I’ve met Senior Zhongli Yue; this is Senior Zhongli Yue’s intention.”

Zhongli Xiayi silently put away the two porcelain bottles, then finally asked, ”What is Spirit Pine Mushroom?”

”Something similar to Forget River Dew,” Yang Zhenshan said.

Zhongli Xiayi was even more shocked at that.

”You’re actually giving me two Core Formation Spiritual Objects!”

”Don’t want them?” Yang Zhenshan said with a laugh.

”I do, how could I not want them?” Zhongli Xiayi didn’t stand on ceremony and directly stowed the two porcelain bottles away.

Yang Zhenshan picked up his tea, leisurely savoring the rich fragrance as he casually asked, ”How are things in True Yang Immortal City right now?”

Zhongli Xiayi thought for a moment, then said, ”Pretty good, all told. Quite a few factions and Loose Cultivators have already settled in True Yang Immortal City. The Spiritual Objects produced in the city every day are beyond counting; there’s no lack of Third-stage Spiritual Objects among them!”

The Spiritual Objects on Sun Giant Mountain were really everywhere. Especially First-order Spiritual Objects—any random weed you picked might be a First-order Spiritual Object, or even a Second-Order Spiritual Object.

”What about order?” Yang Zhenshan asked again.

”What do you think?” Zhongli Xiayi chuckled softly and said, ”No fighting is allowed inside the city. As for outside the city, right now no one can control that.”

The profits contained within Sun Giant Mountain were simply too great. Although the Wanhua Demon Court had established True Yang Immortal City, they couldn’t guarantee peace and stability for the entirety of Sun Giant Mountain.

This wasn’t an area of a few dozen or a few hundred li, but a radius of a thousand li.

With such a vast region, wanting to keep everyone in line was basically impossible.

Right now Sun Giant Mountain was still a chaotic land, with Cultivators searching and scouting for treasures and killing for treasure everywhere.

”So how are the current returns of True Yang Immortal City?” Yang Zhenshan asked.

Zhongli Xiayi blinked. ”Absolutely beyond your imagination!”

”Oh?” Yang Zhenshan’s eyes narrowed slightly. ”How much?”

Zhongli Xiayi’s expression turned serious as she said, ”You probably don’t know how much ore is buried inside all of Sun Giant Mountain. Let me put it this way: the depths of Sun Giant Mountain are nothing but veins of ore! And they’re all Third-order ore veins!”

Yang Zhenshan’s mouth fell open, his face full of shock.

”Third-order ore vein” didn’t mean that every piece of ore in the vein was Third-order Spirit Ore; it meant that the vein contained Third-order Spirit Ore, and in no small quantity at that.

Third-order Spirit Ore had always been comparatively rare. Foundation Establishment Cultivators refining Lifebound Magical Treasures and Golden Core Cultivators refining Spiritual Artifacts both required Third-order Spirit Ore.

An ordinary piece of Third-order Spirit Ore was worth at least a million Spirit Stones; if it was something more precious, then it would be worth several million Spirit Stones.

”All of them?”

”That’s right.” Zhongli Xiayi took a deep breath and said, ”According to everyone’s deductions, these ore veins were probably formed over nearly ten thousand years.”

”The Spirit Vein Rank inside Sun Cave Heaven was high to begin with, and over these ten thousand years the True Sun Fire has been continuously releasing energy underground, so a huge number of Fire Attribute ore veins formed inside Sun Cave Heaven!”

”We probed it five years ago—almost anywhere within the bounds of Sun Giant Mountain you can find ore veins, and the closer you get to the center, the higher the grade of the veins.”

Stroking his beard, Yang Zhenshan more or less understood what the situation in the depths of Sun Giant Mountain was like.

Simply put, it was because of the existence of True Sun Fire that the originally ordinary Earth Veins had, after ten thousand years of transformation, all turned into Spirit Ore veins now.

Those Spirit Ore veins were definitely dominated by Fire Attribute ores, with some ordinary Spirit Stones, Top-grade Spirit Stones, and ores of other attributes mixed in.

”Looks like I absolutely have to fight for this director’s seat!” Yang Zhenshan said.

A director’s seat represented a share in the division of profits; one seat represented one share of the gains.

Those Loose Cultivators and small factions could dig up some surface-level Spiritual Objects on Sun Giant Mountain, but the Spirit Ore deep within Sun Giant Mountain would definitely belong to True Yang Immortal City.

”Mm. It’s best if you can get one. If you can’t, you can also run some businesses within True Yang Immortal City. Right now business there is very easy to do!” Zhongli Xiayi reminded him.

Yang Zhenshan nodded slightly. ”In a while I’ll arrange for a group of people to head over. When the time comes, I’ll need you to look after them a bit.”

”No problem!” Zhongli Xiayi said with a smile.

After that, Yang Zhenshan chatted with Zhongli Xiayi for a while longer. Zhongli Xiayi talked a lot about the situation in True Yang Immortal City, giving Yang Zhenshan a clear understanding of the place.

Once he saw Zhongli Xiayi off, Yang Zhenshan returned to the Immortal Palace.

”Help me call Ning Yun and Hong Fuxiu over!”

In the Longevity Hall, Yang Zhenshan instructed Qingxia.

”Oh right, have Jianning and Jianan come out of seclusion yet?”

Qingxia replied, ”They’ve already come out!”

”Then call them over as well!” Yang Zhenshan said, then headed to the rear hall.

A short while later, Ning Yun, Hong Fuxiu, Li Jian’an, and Li Janning arrived at the study in the rear hall one after another.

”Master, did you need something from us?” Ning Yun asked.

Looking at the four of them, Yang Zhenshan smiled. ”I have a task for you.”

”What task?” Li Janning’s eyes lit up as she asked, ”Is it a task outside?”

The Immortal Palace was nice, but far too quiet.

Li Janning wasn’t the type who could sit still. Before, when her cultivation was still low, Yang Zhenshan and Yu Qingyi hadn’t allowed her to run around outside. Now that she was already a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, she naturally wanted to go out and wander more.
