Three Departments and Spirit Veins
After obtaining the Pill Formula for the Demon-Transforming Pill, Yang Tianyou immediately sent a message to his Thirteenth Brother, Yang Tianjiu, instructing him to utilize the Purple Moon Trading Company's channels to mobilize resources as quickly as possible. As for the Spirit-Washing Sacred Water, Yunhua had already given instructions, so he didn't need to say anything more.
After finishing these tasks, Yang Tianyou soared into the air, passing through the increasingly dense Yun Hai, and arrived at the Purple Moon Mountain, which was filled with Spiritual Qi.
An hour ago, the last Golden Core Cultivator had been sent away by the Old Ancestor. Now she was holding a small copper pot, watering the spirit medicine with the spiritual water specially made by the Lineage's Agriculture Hall.
"Tianyou is here. Judging from your appearance, your father's injuries have stabilized?" Yang Haoyu put down the small copper pot, gently waved, and said.
"The situation is temporarily stable, but Yunhua said that even if the Devil Qi is completely cleansed, it will leave incurable injuries. My father will probably never be able to break through to the Golden Core Realm again in this lifetime!"
Yang Tianyou sighed, a look of helplessness on his face.
"Alas, life is unpredictable. Who could have imagined that the Devil Cultivators would suddenly gather and attack so many Golden Core Force at the same time?" Yang Haoyu sighed, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
"Dwarf Child, Five Poisons Old Devil, Old Devil Yan, hmph, once I break through to the Golden Core, I will personally hang their heads in front of Purple Moon City." Yang Tianyou sneered, his whole body radiating murderous intent.
From an official standpoint, this time the Devil Cultivators caused immense losses to the Yang Household.
On a personal level, my father, Yang Qiongchu, was so badly injured by that Dwarf Child, his Dao Path to immortality severed, and his life hanging by a thread. How could I, as a son, not avenge him?
"Well said! Once you break through to the Golden Core, our Yang Household will definitely drag out all these vermin and crush them one by one!" Yang Haoyu's brows were also filled with a strong Sha Qi.
Since becoming Golden Core Household, the Yang Household has always had smooth sailing. The biggest setback they have ever encountered is this unexpected tribulation by Devil Cultivators.
"However, to be fair, our Old Ancestor, the Orthodox and Demonic Paths suddenly gathered more than a dozen Golden Core and launched a surprise attack on various forces."
"I think they're not just trying to make a quick buck by taking advantage of the opening of the Three Blazing Flame Palace Secret Realm and the fact that all the major powers are focused on it. The deeper meaning is probably that a harsh winter is coming for Orthodox and Demonic Paths!" Yang Tianyou looked at the Old Ancestor with a meaningful gaze and said meaningfully.
"You mean..." Yang Haoyu's expression changed, and he pointed to the east.
"That's right, there must be a change in the war between Mo Province and Xuan Province. A few years ago, Yunhua said that the Devil Cultivator was speeding up its resource plundering and transporting it back to the Demon Sea, which was a clear signal of retreat! Now that several years have passed, if they want to take action, it won't be long!" Yang Tianyou guessed.
"That makes sense. To be honest, the intelligence department is of paramount importance to the Lineage. We should continue to increase our investment in the Shadow Hall!" Yang Haoyu suggested.
Upon hearing this, Yang Tianyou raised both hands in agreement, and said with a smile, "This time we brought out a large amount of resources from the Three Blazing Flame Palace Secret Realm, which will allow the Lineage to take a big step forward again."
"The three departments— the Shadow Hall, the Commerce Hall, and the Agriculture Hall —need to increase investment."
"Regarding the Shadow Hall, I think we can send some more children under the age of ten to be trained by Thirteenth Granduncle. As for Cultivation Resources, we can allocate them in batches, 400,000 Spirit Stones each time, for a total of two million Spirit Stones, to support the Shadow Hall's development!"
"In the Commerce Hall, Thirteenth Brother is the most shrewd businessman and the Lineage's God of Wealth. I suggest giving him eight million Spirit Stone of various resources, and letting him decide how to spend the money!"
"Finally, there's the Agriculture Hall. One of our biggest gains in the Three Blazing Flame Palace Secret Realm was this Spirit Beast Hall!"
"The Spirit Beast Hall at least a thousand kinds of rare and exotic Spirit Beasts, which will greatly enrich the Spirit Beast resources of my Yang Household."
"Therefore, I think it would be better to separate the Beast Hall of the Agriculture Hall into a separate Beast Taming Hall, and entrust it to Fifteenth Brother to manage. From now on, he will be specifically responsible for the breeding of all Spirit Beasts in the Lineage, except for the Purple Moon Wolf Clan..."
Yang Tianyou offered many constructive suggestions, all of which he had considered in his spare time, taking into account the Lineage's situation.
Hearing these words, Yang Haoyu's eyes showed relief, and the heavy weight in his heart was lifted.
She had previously worried that Yang Qiongchu's matter would affect Yang Tianyou's condition.
Now it seems that all my previous worries were unnecessary; my grandson's will remains as firm and strong as Black Iron.
"Besides the three major departments, the Lineage's Spirit Veins also need to be upgraded again!" Yang Haoyu added, "This attack by the Devil Cultivators has shown us the power of the Ten-Thousand-Mile Mountains and Rivers Formation, and how important a powerful Clan-Guarding Array is."
"Upgrading the Spirit Veins is imperative!" Yang Haoyu said decisively.
Yang Tianyou agreed and added, "I think instead of upgrading the Spirit Veins again and again, we should go all out and upgrade the Third-Tier Lower-Grade Spirit Vein on Purple Moon Mountain directly to the Third-Tier Upper-Grade."
"The Tier 2 Spirit Veins beneath the six towns in the Inner Domain have all been upgraded to at least Second-Tier Upper-Grade!"
"All thirty-six First-Tier Spirit Veins in the Outer Domain have been upgraded to First-Tier Superior-Grade!"
"Furthermore, we will entrust Yunhua to upgrade the Ten-Thousand-Mile Mountains and Rivers Formation to Third-Tier Middle-Grade. In this way, relying on numerous Spirit Veins, the defensive power of our Lineage's Clan-Guarding Array will be much higher than that of the Feng Household's Clearwind Valley."
"Why didn't the Devil Cultivators attack the Feng Household, whose strength is not much different from ours, this time? Isn't it because there is a Third-Tier Upper-Grade Spirit Vein beneath their Clearwind Valley?"
"Relying on this Spirit Vein to support the Clan-Guarding Array, let alone a few early to mid-stage Golden Core Devil Cultivators, even Late Golden Core Devil Cultivators would have to come at least three to five times to break through Clearwind Valley in a short time."
"That makes sense, but in the blink of an eye, eighty percent of the resources our Lineage obtained from the Three Blazing Flame Palace Secret Realm will be gone!" Yang Haoyu said with a wry smile.
Upgrading a Third-Tier Lower-Grade Spirit Vein to Third-Tier Upper-Grade vein requires at least two million Spirit Stones.
Not to mention upgrading so many Spirit Veins at the same time, plus the cost of setting up the formation, it would take at least three to four million Spirit Stones to manage.
If someone had told her twenty years ago that one day she could spend millions of Spirit Stone stones at will, Yang Haoyu would never have believed it.
But now... it all feels like a dream.
