Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Chapter 1780: Chapter 1081: Xuanzhen Core Formation

The commotion from Yang Minghao’s breakthrough attracted the attention of many, but most people just glanced and no longer paid heed.

Over these years, too many people have made breakthroughs, and there’s no need to congratulate each time. They can send a gift when the person comes out from seclusion.

Therefore, apart from Yu Qingyi and Yang Mingcheng, only Yang Mingzhi came after receiving the news; no one else showed up.

”Third Brother also broke through, haha, now the three of us brothers are Divine Soul Realm Martial Artists, it’s delightful!” Yang Mingzhi said with a joyful laugh.

”Only Little Sister and Fourth Brother are left, I believe they will soon break through as well!” Yang Mingcheng said.

Hearing this, Yu Qingyi revealed a faint smile on her face.

She was more concerned about her own son, but naturally, Yang Mingcheng and the others making breakthroughs also made her very happy.

Over the years, the thing she did the most was providing protection during cultivation.

All those who broke through to the Divine Soul Realm before were basically protected by her.

Primarily, she was skilled at these tasks. Although Ding Qiu’s strength was high, he didn’t have much expertise in array techniques or elixirs, and his mana conversion speed was far less than Yu Qingyi’s.

Compared to him, Yu Qingyi had already started transitioning into an Immortal Cultivator and could proficiently wield many spells and control parts of the Immortal Palace’s arrays.

Just now she used the Immortal Palace’s array to seal off Yang Minghao’s breakthrough aura.

Suddenly Yang Mingzhi said, ”It’s a pity about Big Sister!”

As soon as these words came out, Yang Mingcheng’s joyful expression faltered slightly.

Yang Yunyan was the only one among the six Yang siblings who had fallen behind.

Although Yang Yunyan did become a Golden Body Realm Martial Artist as she wished, everyone understood that Yang Yunyan’s Martial Arts journey would stop here.

This was an unavoidable matter, Yang Yunyan started low, grew slowly, and never caught up with the Yang family’s growth. Up till now, she was already over two hundred years old, but her cultivation still remained at the early stage of the Golden Body Realm.

Her breakthrough to the Golden Body Realm was very strenuous, if it weren’t for Yang Zhenshan personally helping her, she wouldn’t have reached the Golden Body Realm at all.

”Alright, Yunyan has her destiny, you all need not worry about her!” Yu Qingyi comforted.

Yu Qingyi knew best if Yang Yunyan had a future.

In Martial Arts, Yang Yunyan had no future. Even if Yang Zhenshan was willing to pay a greater price, it would be difficult for Yang Yunyan to become a Divine Soul Realm Martial Artist.

But that doesn’t mean Yang Zhenshan would abandon Yang Yunyan; the deep father-daughter feelings built over the years aren’t something that can be given up so easily.

Yang Yunyan is gentle and does not compete, considerate and attentive. Whether to her father Yang Zhenshan or to her mother Yu Qingyi, she fulfilled her duty as a daughter.

Among the Yang siblings, Yang Yunyan had the best relationship with Yu Qingyi and was the most to Yu Qingyi’s liking, even more so than her own son Yang Mingzhao.

Especially after moving to the Spirit Source Land, while everyone was busy with their own affairs, it was Yang Yunyan who spent the most time accompanying Yu Qingyi.

Yang Yunyan was not outstanding like Yang Yunxue, nor could she be a helper to Yang Zhenshan like Yang Mingcheng and the other brothers, but she was the Yang family’s most considerate presence.

Both Yang Zhenshan and Yu Qingyi valued Yang Yunyan greatly.

Otherwise, Yang Zhenshan wouldn’t have personally protected Yang Yunyan during cultivation.

In fact, Yang Zhenshan had long discussed with Yu Qingyi about Yang Yunyan’s future, not just Yang Yunyan, but also Jiang He, the son-in-law, and the daughters-in-law Ms. Wang, the Li family, and the Liang family.

As the Yang family developed, it’s inevitable that some would fall behind, especially those who started later.

Yang Zhenshan could not casually abandon them and would search for a new path for them.

This new path was actually ready, and it was Ghost Cultivation.

The existence of Red Soul proves that the Ghost Cultivation path is feasible.

In fact, Yang Zhenshan had already been preparing for the Ghost Cultivation path; for the deceased in the Spirit Source Land over these years, he had preserved their Divine Souls.

For this purpose, a special Yin Vein convergence location was found in the Spirit Source Land to establish a Divine Soul Hall.

The purpose was to transform these Divine Souls into Ghost Cultivators, while also preparing for forming a Divine General army in the future.

The process is roughly that after someone dies, their Divine Soul is sent into the Divine Soul Hall for nurturing, then they transition to Ghost Cultivators, and then are transformed into Divine Generals using the Divine General Chessboard.

The Divine General has many restrictions but is also a form of living.

The biggest issue currently facing Yang Zhenshan is how to preserve the deceased’s True Spirit, which is the memory from their lifetime.

Retaining the deceased’s memory is the true continuation of life; without it, it is merely a special form of existence.

...

Two hours later, the breakthrough aura within the Rewarding Diligence Pavilion gradually subsided.

Yu Qingyi entered the array to inspect, and after confirming that Yang Minghao had safely broken through, she finally relaxed completely.

”Alright, you all can go back. Minghao should wake up in about two days!”

Although the breakthrough has been completed, the cultivation still needs some stabilization, which would take about two or three days.

”Yes, thank you for your hard work, Mother!” Yang Mingcheng said.

”It’s nothing!” Yu Qingyi replied with a gentle smile.

Just as Yang Mingcheng and Yang Mingzhi were about to leave, the central region of the Immortal Palace suddenly erupted with another strong Spiritual Energy fluctuation.

This fluctuation was even more significant, with a wider range, and the dense Spiritual Energy gathered towards the central area of the Immortal Palace like a gust of wind, forming a massive vortex in an instant.
