The Yang Clan's Three Foundation Establishers Plot in Secret
Finally, his gaze settled on the Earth- Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm, which had the highest cultivation level among the three and had reached the Qi Training Middle Stage.
Ling Pengyun had little hope for the other two Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm, which had only advanced to the Qi Refinement Realm by relying on the power of the spirit fruit.
However, Ling Pengyun highly valued this Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm, which was already Qi Refinement Realm and had broken through to the Qi Training Middle Stage Refining realm ten years ago by relying on its own strength. Eleven years ago, it was infused with a mouthful of Yin Yang Primordial Power to change its talent.
It's a pity that even with its excellent aptitude, this Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm had already reached the peak of the Qi Training Sixth Layer two years ago by consuming spiritual fruits every day.
However, due to the weak physique of the Spirit Earthworm Clan, they hesitated to attempt to break through to the Qi Training Seventh Layer, fearing that the massive Spiritual Qi at the time of breakthrough would break through their bodies.
As a result, he lost his life before he could even break through his cultivation level.
This is a situation that most Earth-Turning Earthworm will experience.
However, this situation did not diminish the extraordinary Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm's desire to break through.
Since it reached the peak of the Qi Training Sixth Layer two years ago, it has relied on the bloodline inheritance method of the Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm to nourish its body with spiritual power, thereby enhancing its physique.
This approach proved effective, as the Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm progressed smoothly on its path of physical tempering thanks to the daily assistance of spiritual fruits containing pure Spiritual Qi and its exceptional aptitude.
Two years ago, when its cultivation had just reached the peak of the Qi Training Sixth Layer Refining, its physique was at most comparable to that of an ordinary Qi Training Third Layer Demon Beast.
However, after two years of tempering its body with spiritual energy, its physique is now comparable to that of an ordinary Qi Training Fifth Layer Demon Beast.
"At the rate at which this spirit earthworm has been nourishing its body with spiritual energy, it should be able to temper its body to a level comparable to Qi Training Sixth Layer Demon Beast within a year."
"At that time, it will be almost certain that this spirit earthworm will break through its cultivation level."
"Once this spirit earthworm breaks through to the Qi Training Late Stage, it can be placed in the Spirit Field area on the mountaintop of the Lineage. Together with the Lineage's other Qi Training Late Stage Refining Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm, it can consume the Spirit Soil from those few acres of First-Tier Superior-Grade Spirit Field on the mountaintop, and improve the quality of the Spirit Soil by relying on the special method of the Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm clan."
"This act can be seen as a way of repaying the Lineage for the kindness of gifting this spirit earthworm back then."
Thinking this way, a look of joy immediately appeared on Ling Pengyun's face.
Even among the nearly one hundred Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm by the Ling Clan, those at the Qi Training Late Stage Refining are rare.
It was precisely because there were few Qi Training Late Stage Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm in the Ling Clan that the few acres of First-Tier Superior-Grade spirit earthworms in the Spirit Field area on the Lingxiao Mountain had only been cultivated for a little over sixteen years.
In such a short time, the few Qi Training Late Stage Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm of the Lineage were no match for raising the quality of the Spirit Soil in the several acres of First-Tier Superior-Grade high-quality Spirit Field on the top of the Clan Mountain to the highest grade A among "Grade A, B, C, D".
The quality of the Spirit Field did not reach the highest grade, which greatly delayed the growth rate of the First-Tier Superior-Grade Spirit Plant planted by the Lineage in those few acres of First-Tier Superior-Grade Spirit Field.
Although the Ling Clan family has nearly a hundred domesticated Earth-Turning Earthworm, the Earth-Turning Earthworm can only improve the quality of the Spirit Soil in First Rank Low Grade Spirit Field of the first rank at most. Earthworms of other cultivation levels can only improve the quality of the Spirit Soil in Spirit Field of the same rank.
As for the spiritual fruits that Ling Pengyun invested in those three Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm, he certainly wouldn't lose money.
These three Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm will improve the quality of the Lineage's Spirit Soil in the future, and the Lineage will naturally reward them.
Ling Pengyun observed the Qi Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm, which was undergoing spiritual energy Qi Training Middle Stage before shifting his gaze, sitting cross-legged on the Meditation Mat in the quiet room, and entering into arduous cultivation.
Two months later, at the end of September.
Five years ago, the only cave abode on the Red Leaf Mountain was breached by the Peace Cloud Yang Clan, together with Lin Lan, the Marketplace Lord Cloudwater Market Town, and Ling Yunhong, the Clan Head of the Ling Clan.
Yang Changxing, the strongest member of the Peace Cloud Yang Clan who had been in seclusion for five years, suddenly opened his eyes and muttered something to himself.
"The time is ripe for a breakthrough."
Then, he patted the Storage Bag at his waist and took out a Spirit-Locking Jade Box.
Inside this Spirit-Locking Jade Box was a blue spirit fruit.
This fruit was a hundred-year-old Evergreen Spirit Fruit that Yang Clan, who married Wu Yan, the only son of the Yang Siling Spirit Talisman True Person of the Hundred Spirits Sect, helped Yang Changxing exchange for at a considerable cost from the Hundred Spirits Sect several years ago.
As soon as the fruit was taken out of the box, Yang Changxing swallowed it.
Then, he closed his eyes again.
Less than half a day after Yang Changxing consumed the century-old Evergreen Spirit Fruit, a powerful suction force arose from his body, frantically drawing all the Spiritual Qi of the entire Red Leaf Mountain into his body.
When these strange phenomena ceased, a shattering sound rang out from his Dantian.
As a result, his aura gradually rose, reaching the Foundation Establishment Ninth Layer.
After another month of seclusion to consolidate his newly broken-through cultivation, Yang Changxing instructed the Yang Clan clan members stationed on the mountain to be careful. He then summoned a flying Clan Mountain and flew away from Red Leaf Mountain towards Level Cloud Mountain, the Yang Clan Mountain.
Less than half a day later, Yang Changxing returned to the Clan Mountain.
Upon entering the Clan Mountain, he summoned the other two Foundation Establishment Cultivator, Yang Mingquan and Yang Mingtian, who were also in Supreme Elder Clan Mountain Clan Mountain, to enter the Level Cloud Mountain Council Hall to discuss important matters.
As soon as Yang Clan Yang Mingquan, the clan Clan Head, entered the Council Hall, he looked excitedly at Yang Changxing, who had been waiting Council Hall for a long time, and asked him a question.
"Fifth Uncle, have you successfully broken through to the Foundation Establishment Ninth Layer this time?"
"Not bad," Yang Changxing said with a smile.
Upon hearing this news, Yang Mingquan was overjoyed.
As the number one member of the Yang Clan, Yang Changxing's increased strength will give the Yang Clan even more confidence.
Later, Yang Mingtian, the Supreme Elder of the Yang Clan in the Council Hall, also asked Yang Changxing about the results of his five years of seclusion with an excited expression, just like Yang Mingtian had done before.
After Yang Changxing finished answering about his cultivation level, he addressed Yang Mingquan and Yang Mingtian.
"Mingtian, Mingquan, do you remember when Si Ling married Wu Yan, the only son of Spirit Talisman True Person of the Hundred Spirits Sect, our Yang Clan spent a lot of Spirit Stone to buy the recipe for refining Small Hundred Spirits Water from him?"
Small Hundred Spirits Water and the Hundred Spirits Water unique to the Hundred Spirits Sect can assist cultivators in breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Foundation Establishment. However, the effect of the Small Hundred Spirits Water is relatively weak, only increasing the probability of Qi Refining cultivators breaking through to the Foundation Establishment by half.
The Hundred Spirits Water can increase the probability of a cultivator breaking through to the Foundation Establishment by 10%.
The two share the same name because Small Hundred Spirits Water was created by Alchemist of the Hundred Spirits Sect based on the method of refining Hundred Spirits Water.
The Hundred Spirits Water of the Hundred Spirits Sect is made primarily from the Evergreen Spirit Fruit nurtured for two hundred years by the sect's third-tier spirit tree, while the Small Hundred Spirits Water is made from the Foundation Establishment Completion of Demon Beast that has reached the Foundation Establishment stage.
The Alchemist created the method for refining Small Hundred Spirits Water originally thought that the two-hundred-year-old Evergreen Spirit Fruit required to refine Hundred Spirits Water was too precious and rare, so he created the method for refining Small Hundred Spirits Water.
It's a pity that the Small Hundred Spirits Water can only increase the probability of Foundation Establishment by a small amount, which is why it is overwhelmed by the various second-rate Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object refined by the Hundred Spirits Sect.
After all, a 50% probability is unnecessary for the Hundred Spirits Sect. The Hundred Spirits Sect already has many spiritual items and methods that can be refined to increase the probability of Foundation Establishment by 50%. One more or one less will not make a difference.
It was precisely for these reasons that the Yang Clan was able to purchase this item by spending Spirit Stone through the channels of Wu Yan, a descendant of the Golden Core cultivator.
"Of course I remember the matter of the Small Hundred Spirits Water. If it weren't for the fact that it's hard to buy Foundation Establishment Completion Inner Core on the market, we would have already tried to refine this Small Hundred Spirits Water. Fifth Uncle, why do you ask about this matter?" Yang Mingquan, the Clan Head of the Yang Clan clan and a second-level Alchemist, answered with a hint of regret, and then said.
As Alchemy Family, the Yang Clan naturally had something to rely on. Yang Mingquan, the Clan Head, was a Second Rank Low Grade Alchemist.
Yang Changxing is also a second-tier Alchemist, and his rank is as high as the Second Rank High Grade. He has a very high success rate in refining many Second Rank High Grade pills.
Only Yang Mingtian was not a master of all arts, but just an ordinary cultivator.
"My purpose in returning to the clan this time is to plan to enter the territory of Serpent Dragon Lake, kill Demon Beast at the Foundation Establishment Completion, obtain the Foundation Establishment Completion of Demon Beast at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage, and refine this Small Hundred Spirits Water. If we can refine this Small Hundred Spirits Water, combined with the first-class Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object, the Pulse Meridian Protecting Pill, which we can also refine, we can increase the probability of cultivators breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage by 10%."
"Si Ling can only get one portion of Hundred Spirits Water for the Lineage every thirty years, and only three portions in a hundred years. Even if my Yang Clan has enough Spirit Stone, we can use extra Spirit Stone to buy second-grade Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object or Foundation Establishment Pill at auctions in various markets."
"However, the probability of a cultivator breaking through to the Foundation Establishment with this Hundred Spirits Water is only 10%, and there is still a possibility of failing to Foundation Establishment after taking it."
"But my Yang Clan has three or four hundred members. The three portions of Hundred Spirits Water obtained from the Hundred Spirits Sect over the past hundred years, as well as the Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object we have purchased from various markets, are far from enough."
"If hunting Foundation Establishment Completion Demon Beast is successful, I can refine at least three portions of Small Hundred Spirits Water from a Foundation Establishment Completion. Combined with the Meridian Protecting Pill, this is a golden opportunity for many members of my Yang Clan who are stuck at the Qi Training Completion stage but have been unable to purchase Foundation Establishment Pill and Hundred Spirits Water due to their scarcity on the market."
"At that time, my Yang Clan will have more Foundation Establishment Cultivator, and the Lineage will be able to grow even stronger," Yang Changxing said excitedly.
The Meridian Protecting Pill has the effect of protecting the pulse and can be considered a second-class Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object, but its enhancement is not much, only half a percent.
Yang Mingtian and Yang Mingquan, who were also in the Council Hall, were startled upon hearing this.
Although they all understood that the Small Hundred Spirits Water was extremely important to the Yang Clan family, a Foundation Establishment Family, hunting down Foundation Establishment Completion Demon Beast was simply too difficult.
"Fifth Uncle, this won't do. Foundation Establishment Completion Demon Beast is so powerful that normally only two people of the same level can be confident of killing it. You have only recently entered the Qi Training Ninth Layer, and Mingtian and I are only in the Middle-Stage Foundation Establishment. If we fight, there may be casualties." Yang Mingquan frowned and quickly refused.
"Yes, the Foundation Establishment Completion Demon Beast are simply too powerful. If there are casualties due to hunting Foundation Establishment Completion Demon Beast, it would be a huge blow to the Lineage."
"At that time, the other three major Lineage in Cloudwater County, who have been eyeing our Yang Clan, will not easily let go of such an opportunity. They will definitely take action against the Ye Clan family's territory that we occupied after destroying the Red Leaf Ridge Ye Family five years ago," Yang Mingtian also advised.
"What are you thinking? I am well aware of the dangers of hunting Foundation Establishment Completion Demon Beast. I will go alone, and I will call on Ling Yunhong, the patriarch of my Yang Clan clan Ling Clan Head. After the matter is accomplished, I will share the profits with him. You two can then take charge of the Clan Mountain and Red Leaf Mountain respectively." Yang Changxing he saw Yang Mingquan and Yang Mingtian talking.
"Fifth Uncle, this is not a good idea. Even if Ling Yunhong is stronger than me and Mingtian, he is still only at the Middle-Stage Foundation Establishment. With the two of you, hunting Foundation Establishment Completion Demon Beast would be extremely dangerous." Yang Mingquan frowned even more upon hearing this and spoke up.
Yang Changxing is not only the strongest member of the Yang Clan, but also a Second Rank High Grade Alchemist. If something happens to him, it will be a huge blow to the Yang Clan.
"I have been in seclusion for the past five years, but that doesn't mean I've ignored worldly affairs. I recently heard that the Ling Clan may have produced a Foundation Establishment Cultivator. This news is somewhat related to the Foundation Establishment Pill that Ling Yunhong bought from the West Yang Small Gathering three years ago."
"With Ling Yunhong, the newly promoted Foundation Establishment from the Ling Clan, and Ling Yunhong's Foundation Establishment Realm spirit crane working together, it shouldn't be a problem for me to hunt down Foundation Establishment Completion Demon Beast."
"Furthermore, during the five years I have been in seclusion, I have comprehended the Flame Fire Return to Ruin Art Innate Spell Flame Fire Return to Ruin Technique I have been cultivating, to the Consummation Realm."
"As long as Ling Yunhong and the other two can help me entangle that Foundation Establishment Completion Demon Beast for a while, I can rely on this method to kill enemies of higher levels," Yang Changxing said confidently.
Yang Mingtian and Yang Mingquan, who were standing nearby, were both delighted when they heard this.
The Flame Fire Return to Ruin Art is the most complete Cultivation Method of the Yang Clan, which can be cultivated to the Consummation Realm the Foundation Establishment.
The Flame Fire Return to Ruin Technique attached to this Cultivation Method is also extremely powerful.
Yang Changxing has mastered this technique to the Consummation Realm, and it is not impossible for him to kill enemies of higher levels by relying on it.
Yang Mingtian and Yang Mingquan stopped trying to persuade him.
