Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Chapter 1738: Chapter 1058: All Are Old Sixes_2

The Ten Thousand Ghost Blood Jade is at the center of the Blood Pool, guarded by three White Bone Pillars, which form the core of the Evil Blood Killing Array. Yang Zhenshan found it easy to approach the Blood Pool, but it wasn’t easy to silently get close to the Ten Thousand Ghost Blood Jade.

Yang Zhenshan arrived at the Blood Pool, standing before a gigantic six-armed gorilla. The gorilla was over three zhang tall, making Yang Zhenshan look like a tiny figure in comparison.

At this moment, the six-armed gorilla had its eyes tightly shut, its entire body bathed in Blood Evil Qi, and its originally snow-white fur had turned entirely dark black.

Clearly, this creature had been refined into a Ghost Soldier, though it seemed not yet fully refined, still a semi-finished product.

Yang Zhenshan carefully examined the six-armed gorilla, quickly calculating in his mind.

Causing destruction here wasn’t easy; first, he had to hide his identity, or else the Unpredictable Ghost Sect wouldn’t let him go afterwards.

This meant that many of his methods couldn’t be used. Spells, Divine Skills, Spiritual Artifact treasures—if he used them, the Unpredictable Ghost Sect would quickly trace them back to him.

The Withered and Flourishing Divine Power was definitely off the table; it was his signature move, and many knew he excelled at the Path of Life and Death.

The Divine Wood Treasure Cauldron and Green Wood Purple Lightning Sword were also out.

Body Transformation, Spear Dao, and Thunder Fire Spear?

These could still be used; although he had used them before, few people had seen him use them. To be precise, only one person truly knew he mastered these, and that was the Five-tailed Vicious.

The Five-tailed Vicious definitely wouldn’t collude with the Unpredictable Ghost Sect, and it had long hidden away, certainly not coming out voluntarily to expose his information.

Secondly, since he aimed to cause destruction, naturally he had to achieve maximum destructive effect in the shortest amount of time.

There were so many demon beasts that he definitely couldn’t destroy them all, so the best method before his eyes was to take the Ten Thousand Ghost Blood Jade. Without the Ten Thousand Ghost Blood Jade, although he couldn’t completely destroy this Blood Pool, he could still give An Wusheng a big headache, making An Wusheng waste a lot of time.

All these demon beasts here had to be under the control of the Ten Thousand Ghost Blood Jade. If it were lost, An Wusheng wouldn’t be able to control so many demon beasts.

He would need to refine another Ten Thousand Ghost Blood Jade, re-implant Restrictions in the Sea of Consciousness of these demon beasts, and even refine anew.

An Wusheng had spent over a decade turning so many demon beasts into semi-finished products; if Yang Zhenshan took the Ten Thousand Ghost Blood Jade, it would take him at least another five or six years. If Yang Zhenshan could also do some damage to the Blood Pool, it would require even more time.

Unfortunately, Yang Zhenshan didn’t know the method to control the Ten Thousand Ghost Blood Jade and couldn’t refine it in a short time, or else he might have been able to control these Yin Soldier Blood Puppets.

After pondering for a moment, Yang Zhenshan set his sights on the Ten Thousand Ghost Blood Jade.

After ensuring that the six-armed gorilla beside him wouldn’t awaken, he concealed himself beneath the gorilla using Green Mist Hidden Dust to wrap his entire body, then stealthily extended his Spiritual Sense into the Ten Thousand Ghost Blood Pool.

The Ten Thousand Ghost Blood Pool had a tangled mix of energies, filled with Evil Qi and Blood Evil Qi, and Spiritual Sense probing in would immediately be infiltrated by various auras.

Any Spiritual Sense slightly weaker would have its Divine Soul’s Sea of Consciousness assaulted by various sinister auras, with the slightest negligence causing severe damage to the Divine Soul and Sea of Consciousness.

Yang Zhenshan, skilled and courageous, dared to use his Spiritual Sense to probe within the Blood Pool.

His Divine Soul was already rather powerful, and he possessed the Seven Treasures Soul Suppressing Tower and Purify Heaven and Earth Divine Spell. The second level of the Seven Treasures Soul Suppressing Tower held the Soul Cleansing Banner to resist negative energies invading the Divine Soul, and the third level held the Soul-Stabilizing Bell to stabilize the Divine Soul. The Purify Heaven and Earth Divine Spell also purified Divine Soul energies.

Although Yang Zhenshan hadn’t deeply mastered the Purify Heaven and Earth Divine Spell, he could avoid some sinister energy infiltration with it.

He used his Spiritual Sense to probe into the Blood Pool, then slowly toward the three White Bone Pillars at the center of the pool, soon locating the Ten Thousand Ghost Blood Jade.

Long ago, he had used a similar method to take Mo Xuanyu’s Ten Thousand Ghost Blood Jade, but Mo Xuanyu’s Ten Thousand Ghost Blood Jade was not at the same level as the one in front of him.

Mo Xuanyu’s Ten Thousand Ghost Blood Jade was merely a Magical Treasure, while the one before him was of Spiritual Artifact Level, naturally possessing an Artifact Spirit.

Yang Zhenshan quietly investigated and found that the Ten Thousand Ghost Blood Jade was quite calm.

”Looks like the owner of this Ten Thousand Ghost Blood Jade isn’t here, thus my chances bode well,” Yang Zhenshan thought to himself.

At this moment, around the Blood Pool were many Ghost Soldiers and Blood Puppets active, but they weren’t patrolling or standing guard. Instead, they were engaged in various tasks, some pouring blood into the pool, some transporting corpses, and others applying a black, viscous liquid on those semi-finished creatures.

Besides the Ghost Soldiers and Blood Puppets, there were many disciples from the Unpredictable Ghost Sect, many Foundation Establishment Cultivators around.

Yang Zhenshan didn’t bother to count their numbers since he didn’t plan to engage them.

From the very beginning, his plan was to fire a shot and then flee.

Once exposed, or his aura revealed, he had to leave the Cloud Mist Array within three breaths.

After preparing, Yang Zhenshan sprang into action.

First, he withdrew the Green Mist Hidden Dust, then transformed his body into invisibility; with a flicker, he entered the sky above the Blood Pool, immediately employing Body Transformation three times to achieve a teleportation effect, allowing him to approach the Ten Thousand Ghost Blood Jade in the shortest time.

In just the blink of a cultivation technique, he appeared before the three White Bone Pillars; without hesitation, he again flickered within, directly entering the Ten Thousand Ghost Blood Pool.

At that very moment, a terrifying aura erupted from the other side of the Blood Pool.

”How dare you!”

A furious shout accompanied a burst of thousands of blood-colored flames.

It was Yu Yuan!

An Wusheng had gone to the Xiaxian Sect, leaving Yu Yuan to oversee the Blood Pool.

Yang Zhenshan had long expected a Golden Core Cultivator to be stationed here, so Yu Yuan’s appearance did not throw him off.

His hand encased in golden light clasped firmly onto the agitated Ten Thousand Ghost Blood Jade.

A Spiritual Artifact without its master was akin to a lifeless object.

The Artifact Spirit within the Blood Jade might have sensed danger, but without An Wusheng here, it could do nothing, allowing Yang Zhenshan to seize it.

Blood Qi surged, the pool boiled, blood-colored flames fired like a sunrise.

Yang Zhenshan grabbed the Ten Thousand Ghost Blood Jade, said nothing, and with another flicker, rushed out of the Blood Pool. In mere moments, his figure flashed incessantly, reaching the edge of the Blood Pool from its center within a single breath.

Meanwhile, Yu Yuan hadn’t reached the Blood Pool’s center.

As he increased the distance, Yang Zhenshan didn’t pause and plunged into the fog.

Upon entering, he had to conceal his aura, which made his approach slow.

Now, needing to leave, he no longer needed to conceal his aura and directly flew into the fog.
