Breakthrough in the Star Dao

Purple Moon Mountain, Great White Residence!

Yang Tianyou accepted the gold ring handed to him by Yang Xuanwu.

In the center of the circle, a Golden Core shrouded in dense Devil Qi slowly rotated, and the grotesque face of the Dwarf Child could be vaguely seen within it.

As soon as the golden ring was opened, a streak of black light shot out, attempting to escape, but was caught directly by Yang Tianyou. No matter how much it struggled, it could not escape the five fingers that seemed like pillars of heaven.

"Spare me, I'll do anything for you, I'll do anything for you, just please spare my life..." When force didn't work, the Dwarf Child tried a softer approach.

He conjured an illusory figure, knelt down and kowtowed without hesitation, his expression humble, like a pitiful worm.

Yang Tianyou quietly looked at the Dwarf Child in front of him, suddenly feeling bored. He glanced at him with disgust, and then, amidst the Dwarf Child's extremely venomous screams, crushed his Golden Core into powder.

"Nineteenth Uncle, you..." Yang Xuanwu was somewhat puzzled. He had thought that Yang Tianyou would torture the Dwarf Child to vent his hatred, but he did not expect him to kill him directly.

Yang Tianyou smiled and shook his head slightly, "I just suddenly feel that arguing with such a person is a waste of time and energy. It would be better to send him into Reincarnation sooner rather than later!"

"Nineteenth Uncle, just do what you think is best!" Yang Xuanwu smiled faintly. He didn't care much about the Dwarf Child. Even without a sneak attack, the boy wouldn't last ten moves against him.

"Alright, Xuanwu, how's the situation on Divine Sword Island?" Yang Tianyou clapped his hands, leaned back in his Bamboo Chair, and asked.

"The development is going very well. With the help of the Eight Desolations Arena and the Sea Abyss Sect, the Lineage's trade income has been soaring every year. Last year's net income reached 960,000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones, which is quite considerable!" When he mentioned this, Yang Xuanwu couldn't help but show a deep smile on his tough face.

"Yes, the development is indeed quite good!" Yang Tianyou nodded in satisfaction. You should know that the Lineage's net income this year from Purple Moon Mountain was only 1.6 million Spirit Stones.

In comparison, it becomes clear how fast Divine Sword Island has developed.

Of course, it's important to understand that the Lineage also consumes a lot of resources on Purple Moon Mountain every year.

The maintenance of the Purple Moon Army, the Nine Great Legacy Grounds, the Clan-Guarding Formations, the major Border Defense Fleets, the salaries of over four thousand clan members... all these developments require a significant investment of resources.

In contrast, Divine Sword Island consumes far fewer resources. The main expense is the stipends of its clansmen and the stipends of the cultivators borrowed from the Eight Desolations Arena. Other expenses are minor and don't require many Spirit Stones.

This is why Divine Sword Island's annual net income is only about 600,000 less than that of Purple Moon Mountain.

"By the way, Nineteenth Uncle, Uncle Yueyang has completed his bloodline Bloodline Metamorphosis. He sent me a message asking me to tell you that he plans to visit Purple Moon Mountain in a few days," Yang Xuanwu said.

"Oh? Yueyang has finally completed his bloodline Bloodline Metamorphosis?" Yang Tianyou's Shen Yi lit up. "I'm really looking forward to seeing how much this kid will grow up after his Bloodline Metamorphosis. He's always been eager to become an adult!"

"It is said that the purer the bloodline of a member of the Mirage Clan, the simpler their mind, and the faster their cultivation progresses. So if Uncle Yueyang were to directly Bloodline Metamorphosis an adult, it probably wouldn't be a good thing!" Yang Xuanwu slowly shook his head and said.

Upon hearing this, Yang Tianyou nodded slowly.

The two stopped discussing the topic.

Yang Tianyou's tone changed, carrying a hint of killing intent, as he asked, "How is the Demon Puppet Venerable? Has he been active on the Chaotic Sea these past few years?"

Mentioning this matter, Yang Xuanwu's eyes also flashed with a cold light as he replied, "Several years ago, after Senior Wuhuang broke through to the Sage Manifestation and consolidated her cultivation, she personally went to hunt down Demon Puppet Venerable!"

"Several Nascent Soul and over a dozen Spirit-level demonic puppets belonging to the Demon Puppet Venerable were directly annihilated. Terrified, the Demon Puppet Venerable retreated all his remaining demonic puppets into the Blood Slaughter Path Secret Realm. In the past few years, we haven't heard of him committing any evil deeds, nor have we had the time to harass the Yang family's development!"

"Good!" Yang Tianyou patted the armrest and laughed loudly, "As expected of Wuhuang, even the Demon Puppet Venerable's Concealment techniques were driven to hiding in the Secret Realm by her. It's truly exhilarating!"

"Senior Wuhuang is indeed extraordinary!" Yang Xuanwu said, Battle Intent Flame rising in his eyes. He wondered when he would be able to have a good fight with Sage Manifestation being.

"Speaking of which, after my junior nephew Wuhuang broke through to the Sage Manifestation realm, the power of the Four Symbols Legacy Remnant Vein greatly increased. Even though my identity as a candidate for Saint Son was exposed, not many enemies came to provoke my Yang Household," Yang Tianyou said with a smile, his words carrying a hint of relief.

When he was using the Eight Desolations Saber Saint's name to intimidate others, he had already prepared himself to be targeted by the rival forces of the Four Symbols Legacy.

Who would have thought that Wuhuang's breakthrough would intimidate all the demons and monsters along the way, leaving them too afraid to move, lest they be used by the latter to establish her authority, thus buying the Yang Household extremely valuable time.

The uncle and nephew chatted for most of the day before Yang Xuanwu took his leave. He stayed on Purple Moon Mountain for another three months before returning to the Chaotic Sea.

Seclusion Chamber, Yang Tianyou sat cross-legged, his five palms facing the sky, his mind and will immersed in the Jade Register Heavenly Book.

Dao Comprehension Space, on the Star-Picking Terrace!

Endless stars hung high in the night sky, their starlight falling like rain. The rich Daoist aura of the stars enveloped this towering platform, especially at the top, where the Daoist aura was incredibly dense.

Sitting cross-legged on the platform, Yang Tianyou felt his understanding of the Star Dao improving every moment.

Suddenly, at a certain moment.

His mind was shaken, and the sound of a great bell resounded in his mind. Streams of ethereal starlight fell from the clouds and engulfed the entire Great White Residence.

After an unknown amount of time, a pair of eyes containing endless starlight quietly opened, as if two galaxies were embedded in Yang Tianyou's eye sockets, making him appear extremely mysterious.

"The Star Dao has finally broken through to the Force Realm!" A sense of emotion swept through Yang Tianyou's heart.

Conflicts can arise between different paths.

The more one comprehends the Tao, the more intense this conflict becomes.

After Yang Tianyou mastered the Blade Force, he clearly felt that the Star Dao and the Metal Element Dao were being subtly suppressed by the former, making them much more difficult to comprehend.

Originally, it was estimated that he would have been able to break through the Star Dao of the Force Realm ten years ago, but unexpectedly, he has only just managed to break through now.

After breaking through the Star Dao, the remaining Metal Element Dao becomes even more difficult to comprehend.

According to his estimate, it will take at least another ten years or so for the Metal Element Dao to break through the Force Realm.
