Chapter 94: Spirit Day City
Translator: Daoist6fubtiW
“Grandfather, 1 don’t understand why you would take a fancy to a small Chen family. Even if the Chen family has some achievements in refining weapons, they are only limited to low-grade first-tier magic tools.
As far as I know, they rarely even sell first level middle grade magic tools. This proves that the Chen Clan’s weapon craftsmen are of extremely low standards.
Besides, doesn’t the Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance already have the Wu family?”
In the pavilion.
Yang Gongwan’s pretty face was filled with confusion.
” No,” Yang Linyuan shook his head.” It’s precisely because of the Wu family that we need the Chen family, a family with great potential.”
“This…”
Yang Gongwan frowned.” You mean to prevent the Wu Family from monopolizing the Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance’s spiritual artifacts? ”
“Let’s prepare for a rainy day.”
Yang Linyuan raised his head and looked at the mirror-like lake water.” The outside world has speculated that the Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance is targeting the Zhou Family. However, we, the Wu Family, and the Zhao Family all know that even if the Guang’ an Immortal Alliance were to join forces, they would never be a match for the Zhou Family.
We’re only doing this because we want to get our share of the benefits. As for fighting against the Zhou family…”
Yang Linyuan shook his head.
Hearing this, Yang Gongwan pursed her lips and remained silent.
Yang Linyuan seemed to be persuading Yang Gongwan, but he also seemed to be talking to himself.
“In the battle of the Southern Mountain’s City, it was said that the Zhou clan of the Guang ‘an Prefecture suffered the greatest losses, losing six Zifu Disciples in battle. In truth, my Yang clan, Wu clan, and Zhao clan were the three clans that suffered the greatest losses.
Because of this battle, the vitality that we had painstakingly recovered from the Rebellion of God Extinction has almost been lost.”
Yang Linyuan closed his eyes in pain.
Fifty years ago, in the battle of the Southern Mountain’s City, the two Zifu Disciples of the Yang clan had both died in battle. The only Zifu Disciple of the Wu clan had also died in battle, and the Zhao clan leader had also died in the hands of the Golden Core cultivators of the Xuan Qing Dao Alliance.
This battle.
It could be said that it had completely changed the power structure of Guang ‘an Prefecture.
Because the Yang, Wu, and Zhao Clans had lost their Zifu Disciples, they were no longer comparable to the Zhou Clan of Guang ‘an Prefecture.
Although six Zifu Disciples of the Zhou Clan had died, the Zhou Clan still had seven Zifu Disciples left to guard it.
Even though the Zhou Clan had suffered a great loss, it did not affect the Zhou Clan’s position as the sole power in Guang ‘an Prefecture.
In fact, because the Yang, Wu, and Zhao clans had lost their Zifu Disciples, the Zhou clan’s power in Guang ‘an Prefecture had grown even more powerful.
Especially the rise of Zhou Mubai.
It was like a shot in the arm for the Zhou family, making their reputation even greater than before the battle of the Southern Mountain’s City.
The current Zhou Family was only second to the peak period before the Rebellion of God Vanishing.
Listening to her grandfather recount the rise and fall of the family, Yang Gongwan couldn’t help but fall silent.
She knew what her grandfather was going to say next.
As expected.
Yang Linyuan changed the topic and said,”Little Wan, you’re different. You’re the most talented cultivator in the Yang family in the past thousand years. Not only do you have the Heaven Spiritual Root, but you also have the Water Spiritual Body of the Five Elements Spiritual Body.
With your talent, as long as you’re willing, you can get your hands on a Zifu Disciple or even a Jindan.
The outside world says that Zhou Mubai is a genius that only appears once in a thousand years in Guang ‘an Prefecture, but in my opinion, you’re no weaker than him!”
Hearing her grandfather’s praise, Yang Gongwan wasn’t happy. Instead, she was a little unhappy.
She knew that her grandfather was going to persuade her again.
Yang Linyuan paused for a moment.” Although sword cultivators are the best in offense among their peers, with your water element spirit body, if you specialize in water element cultivation techniques, you might not be much weaker than sword cultivators. Why are you so persistent?”
Yang Gongwan took a deep breath and said,”Ten years! Give me another ten years. If I still can’t comprehend sword-intent within ten years, I’ll choose to break through to the Zifu level.
Grandfather, I have already stepped on the threshold of sword intent. Just a little bit more, just a little bit more. If 1 give up now, I really can’t accept it!”
“Sigh, you said the same thing ten years ago.”
Yang Linyuan shook his head and said no more.
How could sword intent be so easy to comprehend?
Otherwise, in the entire Guang ‘an Prefecture, Sword Immortal Zhou Mubai wouldn’t be the only one who could comprehend sword essence at the Foundation Establishment stage.
Seeing that her grandfather was unhappy, Yang Gongwan immediately acted coquettishly.”Grandfather, don’t be angry!
By the way, you told me before that you would provide spiritual veins for free to the itinerant cultivators within ten thousand miles of Golden Crow Island. What’s that about?”
Yang Linyuan shook his head helplessly when he saw Yang Gongwan changing the topic so stiffly. He pointed at her and said, “”You!”
Yang Gongwan smiled innocently as her charming eyes narrowed slightly.
Although Yang Linyuan was helpless, he still explained, “”The only way for us to compete with the Zhou Clan is to provide free energy veins to the itinerant cultivators within ten thousand miles of Gold Crow Island.”
He paused for a moment before continuing,” For the itinerant cultivators of Guang ‘an Prefecture, the biggest factor that prevents them from improving their cultivation is not the Spirit Pills or treasures like the Water Spirit Pearl that assist in cultivation. It’s the most basic spiritual energy!
For ordinary rogue cultivators, being able to cultivate in a place with spirit veins was their greatest wish.
The reason why itinerant cultivators liked to flock to Guang ‘an Prefecture was because of the Grade-3 spirit vein in the city.
However, a mere grade three spirit range was given to hundreds of thousands of itinerant cultivators. How much could each person get? Not to mention that the Zhou Clan has used the Spirit Gathering Formation to build all the good Spirit Cores into Immortal’s caves of various grades for rent.”
At this point, Yang Linyuan shook his head as if he was very disdainful of the Zhou family’s behavior.
” The Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance’s construction of spirit veins for itinerant cultivators may seem like a huge loss in the short term, but in the long run, it’s an extremely cost-effective transaction.”
As Yang Linyuan spoke, a hint of shrewdness flashed in his eyes.” Firstly, our spirit meridians aren’t used for free. If itinerant cultivators want to use our spirit meridians to cultivate, they have to open up spirit fields and plant spirit herbs in the spirit meridians.
Secondly, we can lend spirit stones to the wandering cultivators to support them in doing this.
When the itinerant cultivators harvest the spiritual rice, spiritual herbs, and other resources and sell them in the Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance’s immortal cities, not only will we solve the problem of resources, but we will also be able to recover the spirit stones that we borrowed previously.
“In this way, not only will we revitalize the newly built immortal city, but we will also solve various resource problems for the immortal city.
This move is a win-win situation for the Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance and the rogue cultivators. However, the initial investment will be very, very large.
This is also the reason why my Yang family wants to form an alliance. Because just relying on my Yang family alone, we don’t have enough financial resources to do this.”
As Yang Gongwan listened, she analyzed Yang Linyuan’s words in detail. Her charming eyes lit up.
At this moment, she had to admit that although her grandfather’s cultivation talent was far inferior to hers, in terms of foresight, he was definitely the strongest among the Yang Family Patriarchs.
But then she thought of something and frowned.” But if the Zhou Clan imitates our methods…”
“Hahahaha, you!”
Yang Linyuan laughed.” Why do you always treat the Zhou family as your enemy like the outside world?
Even if the Zhou family really can’t take it anymore, they will follow our example.
However, we still have the advantage of being one step ahead. There are millions of itinerant cultivators in Guang ‘an Prefecture.
As long as we can attract even 10% of them, it will be a victory! Because before this, we didn’t even have 10%.”
That’s right!
Yang Gongwan’s eyes lit up. Why did she see the Zhou family as a competitor?
Yang Linyuan’s actions were a blatant conspiracy. No matter what the Zhou Family did, Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance would not suffer.
After all, the spirit veins that were cultivated wouldn’t run away, right?
If the spirit vein was given to the wandering cultivator for free, the wandering cultivator would not refuse it, right?
As long as the itinerant cultivators were willing to use the spirit veins cultivated by the Guang ‘an Immortal Alliance, with the support of the itinerant cultivators, it would be difficult for the Guang’ an Immortal Alliance to not become popular.
“Grandfather, what name did you give our Immortal City?”
Hearing Yang Linyuan’s explanation, Yang Gongwan was completely relieved. She couldn’t help but ask about the name of the city that was about to be built.
“As for the name…”
Yang Linyuan looked at the calm lake and thought for a moment.” Guang ‘an City has a curfew every night.. I hope that our city can become a city that never sleeps, so let’s call it Spirit Day City!”
