The Zhao Household's Spirit Medicine Garden
"He's incorrigible!"
Yang Tianyou's gaze turned slightly cold. He chuckled and gripped the Twin Blades, covering them with Spirit-Shattering Gang Qi, before slashing down with a single blow.
Clang!
The clear, melodious Blade Cry echoed in his ears. Man and blade became one, and with the enhancement of the Great White Blade Intent, a golden blade aura, condensed to the point of being almost tangible, swept out horizontally, tearing through the chaotic Spiritual Qi in front of him with unstoppable force, and slashing down towards the Black Poison Thunder.
At the same time, Wolf Ancestor and the two Foundation Establishment from the Liu Household simultaneously split into two and rushed towards the Devil Cultivators.
Among them, the Wolf Ancestor was the fastest. Just as the two Foundation Establishment Devil Cultivators were about to turn and run away, it blocked their way behind them. Its snow-white, sharp fangs were slightly exposed, and its brown wolf eyes held a hint of mockery.
Boom!
At this moment, the golden blade energy collided head-on with the Black Poison Thunder, and the deafening explosion brought with it waves of Spiritual Qi mixed with poison gas that spread outwards.
"Hold your breath and use Law Technique to blow these poisonous creatures away!"
Yang Tianyou shouted loudly, waved his sleeve, and a huge amount of Spiritual Power roared out, sweeping away a large area of poisonous gas in front of him and flying nearly a hundred feet away.
The thirty Qi Refining cultivators followed suit and used their Law Technique one after another. In an instant, the dense poisonous gas was swept away.
At that moment, as the voice faded, Yang Tianyou had already charged forward with his knife!
Brush!
The extremely powerful blade energy was surrounded by strands of flowing golden light, complementing each other as it slashed towards the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage Devil Cultivator.
This Devil Cultivator was so suppressed by the Wolf Ancestor that he couldn't even lift his head, and now, facing this blade of energy, he had no way to defend himself.
In desperation, he showed a pained expression and, following the example of the Zhao Household's Foundation Establishment cultivators, directly detonated one of his Law Artifacts.
Boom!
This Law Artifact was a Second-Tier Middle-Grade magic tower. With its sudden self-destruction, Yang Tianyou could not ignore it and had no choice but to activate his Golden Spirit Armor for defense.
Since he advanced to the Foundation Establishment, the power of the Golden Spirit Armor has also increased significantly. This kind of Law Technique, which is paired with the Cultivation Method, has a growth potential that is closely related to the cultivator's own cultivation level.
Yang Tianyou possesses a solid foundation and his Golden Spirit Armor is far superior to that of other cultivators who practice the "Spirit-Shattering Instruction".
For example, Yang Qiongchuan, the twelfth uncle who also cultivates this Cultivation Method, has Golden Spirit Armor that is far less powerful than Yang Tianyou's.
The golden armor shimmered and shone brightly. Amidst the raging Spiritual Qi Torrent and the flying fragments of Spirit Gold, it stood like a solid reef in the waves, unmoved by any impact!
The most intense wave of impact quickly passed. Yang Tianyou withstood the aftershocks of the explosion, stomped his right foot on the ground, and with a loud bang, his Fleshly Body smashed through numerous obstacles. When he reappeared, he was already in front of the Foundation Establishment Devil Cultivator.
Ignoring the horrified look on his opponent's face, he held the knife in both hands and slashed down from left to right and from top to bottom, the blade drawing a golden crescent moon in the air.
Pfft!
As the moon sank in the west, appearing and disappearing in an instant, a head shot into the sky, spurting out thick blood. The headless corpse crashed to the ground, raising clouds of dust.
After killing the Devil Cultivator, Yang Tianyou waved his sleeve, put away the cultivator's Storage Bag, and then looked at the battlefield where Liu Changqing was.
There, two Foundation Establishment from the Liu Household, one on the left and one on the right, were attacking another Foundation Establishment Early Stage Devil Cultivator.
The latter was currently fighting his way through the enemy lines, looking extremely disheveled. Due to the injury he had sustained from the self-destruction of the Zhao Household's Formation, he only retained 70% of his strength. He was quickly seized by Liu Changqing, who killed him with a single sword strike.
Several Devil Cultivators at the Qi Refining Period had already perished on the spot under the siege of the Qi Refining clansmen from the Yang and Liu Households.
Liu Changqing exchanged a smile with Yang Tianyou and then put away the Storage Bag hanging on the Devil Cultivator's waist.
They then arrived together in front of the Zhao Household's Foundation Establishment, who was on the verge of death and delirious. However, sensing the approach of the two hostile auras, he still trembled and tried to gather Spiritual Power to attack.
But his efforts were clearly in vain. He was severely injured and his Spiritual Power was exhausted. Now, even Mortal could easily kill him.
Yang Tianyou looked down at the Zhao Household's Foundation Establishment, expressionless. After a moment, he waved his right hand, and a flash of golden light pierced through the man's head.
The man's Storage Bag was torn to shreds in the explosion, scattering the Spirit Items inside all over the ground. Yang Tianyou swept the bag away with a wave of his sleeve and then told the Qi Refining cultivators to quickly clean up the battlefield.
A few breaths later, led by several Foundation Establishment cultivators, more than thirty people stepped into the Zhao Household's Spirit Medicine Garden.
The Zhao Household Border River Town has a history of hundreds of years. The Spirit Medicine Garden has a wide variety of spirit medicine. As Yang Tianyou walked in, the Fragrant Incense of herbs and the colorful plants caught his eye.
Vermilion Fruit, Yellow Ginseng, Pure Spirit Flower, Purple Jade Grass... each graceful spirit medicine swayed beautifully in the breeze, and the cultivators from the Yang and Liu Households couldn't help but show their delight at the sight.
Turning his head, Yang Tianyou nodded slightly to Liu Changqing. The latter smiled knowingly, took out an octagonal Formation Disc in bronze, and placed Formation Disc in a suitable position.
Buzz!
The earthen-yellow Formation rapidly spread from the Formation Disc, and in a short while, it enveloped the entire Spirit Medicine Garden, protecting it firmly.
"This is Second-Tier Middle-Grade Formation — the Five-Element Rock Formation. It can be used for both offense and defense, and its power is extraordinary!" After setting up the Formation, Liu Changqing chuckled softly.
Upon hearing this, Yang Tianyou nodded in satisfaction. He then left the Qi Refining Realm cultivators to pick the spirit medicine and instructed them that it would be best to take them with them, roots and all, and transplant them into his family's Spirit Medicine Garden to enhance the Lineage's foundation.
He then walked with Liu Changqing deeper into the Zhao Household's Spirit Medicine Garden.
As they went deeper, Yang Tianyou and his companion's brows furrowed. When they reached the deepest part, looking at the large pit with a diameter of four or five zhang in front of them, and the brown roots remaining in the pit, their expressions turned gloomy.
"Hmph, Zhao Leicong is indeed cunning and treacherous; he actually dug up some precious spirit medicine ahead of time," Liu Changqing said with a cold snort.
Yang Tianyou sighed, "What a pity about this Second-Tier Upper-Grade Golden-Pattern Pear! It's a treasure no less valuable than my Yang Household's Ginkgo Tree!"
"It's a pity, but we're not entirely without a chance. Once we wipe out the Zhao Household, we can free up our resources to specifically target these remnants." Liu Changqing's eyes flashed with a fierce light. Under the influence of profit, even this usually kind old man couldn't hold back.
Yang Tianyou nodded slightly in agreement, and then the two began to harvest the remaining spirit medicine, from the inside out.
As time went by, the situation on Bianhe Mountain became increasingly chaotic, with more and more opportunistic cultivators from the outside world flooding in and frantically seizing the Zhao Household's various resources.
In addition, some cruel Devil Cultivators have set their sights on Border River Town, where there are more than 200,000 Mortals. If they were all slaughtered, they could refine a lot of Essence Blood and souls.
For Devil Cultivators, these Mortals were also a considerable fortune, so after the first Devil Cultivator set off, streaks of demonic shadows streaked across the sky, heading straight for Border River Town.
Several Immortal Dao couldn't stand by and watch, and wanted to stop them, but were held back by their companions. After a bit of arguing, they could only sigh in despair and turn to rush towards Bianhe Mountain.
