When Yang Junshan was preparing to cultivate once again, the counterattack beast tide organized by the Zhang County’s Seven Souls Sect, the operation to take back the Seven Luan Gate’s encampment, had gathered at the Zhang County, the Yao County, the four families of the Zichu, as well as two counties’ worth of powerful families. In addition to the remnants of the Seven Luan Sect, a total of seven Spiritual Masters, several hundred Martial Realm Cultivator s, had begun their extermination of the beast tide that was located at the border between the Zhang County and the Yao County.
The extermination process was extremely smooth at the beginning. Countless demon beasts were killed and this group of people headed straight for the Seven Luan Gate’s encampment at the border between the two counties.
However, under the Seven Luan Sect’s mountain gate’s encampment, this team suffered the attacks from all directions, and the beasts that were several times stronger than themselves fearlessly attacked, and very quickly, they entered into a situation of fighting on their own. At the same time, a few Zhenren Realm Alien Cultivator s began attacking and killing the Adept Realm Cultivator s of various sects, causing a large number of casualties among the various cultivators, so they had no choice but to break out.
After the various sects’ cultivators returned in defeat from the border between two counties, out of the seven Spiritual Cultivators, three had fallen. Out of the four hundred Martial Realm Cultivatohat gathered, nearly half had died.
In particular, the Seven Spirit Sect had initiated this battle, and two of their disciples had died, one had been injured, and three true disciples had been caught in the beast tide.
As for the other three Spiritual Masters from Sirius Gate, Opening Spirit School and the rest, they successfully escaped back. Only the Spiritual Master from Zichu was heavily injured, and the two powerful Spiritual Masters from the other three clans were also killed by the Alien Cultivator.
The impact of this battle on the cultivation world of the Yuzhou was extremely far-reaching. Although the arrival of the Alien Cultivator had caused a huge chaos in the cultivation world of the Yuzhou, the various sects and families had always believed that they would be able to win against the Alien Cultivator.
However, previously, the Seven Luan Gate had been destroyed, followed by the war at the border between the two counties. The allied forces of the Zhang and Yao counties were defeated, and the strength displayed by the Alien Cultivator made everyone in the Yuzhou realize that this matter was not as simple as they had imagined.
After the battle at the border between the two counties, the conflicts and battles between the various sects in the cultivation world of Yuzhou had suddenly lessened. Although most of the sects’ strength was still in front of their own doors, they had already realized the true threat of the Alien Cultivator and began a new round of extermination.
However, this method would at most work on those ordinary Alien Cultivator s. Alien Cultivator s with a cultivation level of Spiritual Master would not be trapped by this large scale encirclement.
At the same time, Yang Junshan received a message from the Heaven-Shaken Sect, inviting him to participate in the extermination of Tuo Wu Shan’s demon beasts. It seemed that the Heaven-Shaken Sect had also realized the danger, and began to exterminate those who had escaped to the Tuo Wu Shan to hide.
However, Yang Junshan did not care about this at all. He used the excuse of him going into closed door cultivation and rejected the Heaven-Shaken Sect’s invitation. At the same time, he was trying to show the Heaven-Shaken Sect that he was angry about the distrust he had towards Lao Yang after he fell into the Buried Sky Ruins.
Yang Junshan was truly cultivating behind closed doors, Master Duskfall’s photo-inheritance bead s were within expectations, as he demonstrated the complete inheritance of the Five Elements Lightning Light Treasure Formation and the Tri-coloured Spirit Treasure Formation. For the past year, Yang Junshan had been using the Cheso deduce and study the inheritance of the array formation, but he was only able to study the Five Elements Lightning Light Treasure Formation thoroughly.
However, if he wanted to upgrade Xishan Village’s village protection formation to the Five Elements Lightning Light’s treasure array, Yang Junshan would still need to borrow the Xishan Village’s specific environment to deduce and modify the details. However, compared to the Thunder Light Treasure Formation, the latter was much easier.
A year later, Yang Junshan made a short trip out of seclusion and handed a list of materials to Yang Junping, telling him to prepare the materials according to the list as much as possible. The list on top of the list was filled with spirit materials that were needed to level up the village protection formation.
Furthermore, according to Yang Junshan, some high grade spirit material tools were not on his list. Some spirit rank materials, and most of the Yang family treasury had some inventory, and it was not enough for him himself to think of a way. After Yang Junshan heard this, he even had the thought of whether it was worth it to set ureasure grade array in the Xishan Village.
One year ago, when Yang Junxin was collecting the two Spirit Orbs, she detected a trace of the Spirit Vein, but she had already determined the general location of the Spirit Vein, it was still within the borders of the Wasteland Town.
Although Yang Junshan strictly prohibited Yang Junxin from entering the borders of Wasteland Town, he had long ignored his brother’s words, not to mention that she was wearing a magic robe, holding a treasure talisman, the storage bag at his waist was carrying a puppet at the late stage of the martial arts realm, with Hu Niu and Bao Yuer protecting his from the shadows. As long as he did not meet the Adept Realm Cultivator, she was really not afraid, and had long since secretly snuck into the Wasteland Town to confirm the general location of the spirit vein.
Fortunately, although the Spiritual Pulse was already in the process of being nurtured, it had yet to take shape. Aesult, it did not form a place where dense Spiritual Qi gathered, so no one noticed it. On this point, it could be said that the Yang Family had the upper hand.
Just as Yang Junshan had given Yang Junping a difficult problem with gathering spirit materials, Yang Junping had also brought Yang Junshan a piece of bad news. More than a year ago, after the Seven Luan Sect had been annihilated by the Alien Cultivator, the Five Origin Sects in Lin County had also been annihilated.
But this time, the ones who took action were the Demonic Cultivator, the Ghost Clan and the Asura.
Furthermore, after destroying the Five Elements Sect, these Demons, Ghost Clan and Asura Clan cultivators did not occupy the territory of the Seven Luan Gate like the Alien Cultivator who destroyed the Seven Luan Sect.
This news slightly surprised Yang Junshan. According to his knowledge, in the few years after the great change of heaven and earth in his previous life, it had always been the demon race cultivators and the horde of beasts that they commanded that acted as the main force in wreaking havoc on the Yuzhou, to the point where there was a Demon Calamity occurring everywhere. The destruction of the Seven Luan Sect seemed to prove this point.
However, this matter was quickly thrown out of Yang Junshan’s mind. After over a year of refining and nurturing his True Essence, the layer of glass that was wrapped around the treasure that he had brought back from outside the Yu Cheng on the night of the meteors, was already filled with spiderweb-like cracks. It was almost enough for him to take a look at the true appearance of the treasure inside.
Yang Junshan had once given this piece of glass to Lao Yang, but it waity that Lao Yang, who had already advanced to the realms of life, was also unable to open this piece of glass. Now that Yang Junshan had advanced to the realms of life, the true essence cultivated for the Mountain Nine Toughness Spell was actually able to resonate with the object that was wrapped in the glass.
In this situation, either because the treasure within the glass was closely related to the Mountain Nine Toughness Spell, or because the rank of the Mountain Nine Toughness Spell was far above that of the Earth Shrouding Spell, and Yang Junshan obviously believed that it was because of the latter, since the Earth Shrouding Spell was a middle grade treasure cultivation technique, then the rank of the Mountain Nine Toughness Spell should be at leasigh-grade treasure, on par with the Red Lotus of the Core Fire.
Yang Junshan was more or less secretly delighted in his heart.
In the dark secret room, the instant Yang Junshan’s eyes opened, it was as if two points of light were flashing. And at this time, a strip of long, dark colored glass floating in front of him, gradually emitted a faint yellow spirit light, and at the same time, revealed dense cracks and patterns on the surface of the glass. It was as if when the glass fell to the ground in the next moment, it would shatter into pieces.
Yang Junshan took a deep breath, and lightly tapped on the surface of the glass with his finger. With a “pa” sound, an explosion came from the inside of the glass, and this crisp sound was just like the spark that ignited the fuse.
Afterwards, with a “hualala” sound, countless glass fragments fell to the ground. Yang Junshan’s gaze was completely attracted by the foot long stone strip that was floating in front of him.
On the surface, it seemed to be a broken mace, but on the surface, it looked like it was a broken mace. The mace below took up half of the length, and in the middle, there was a mace, its body had four edges, and the edges of the mace were carved with extremely intricate lines.
And at the place where the mace and the gauntlet clashed, two ancient words were carved out. After careful examination, Yang Junshan determined that these two words were called “Mountain Break”.
The mountain breaking mace, although he didn’t know what kind of treasure it was, under the circumstance of broken pieces, could still wrap that layer of glass, leaving the cultivators below the realms of life helpless. Presumably, it should at least bigh-grade spirit rank treasure, or maybe even a treasure.
Once he thought about the possibility of it being a treasure, Yang Junshan could not hold back the fire in his heart. Although the stone mace was broken, but if it wareasure, then he could at least release the power of a Medial Grade Spirit Treasure, and that was much stronger than a mountain cleaver.
No matter what, this treasure was brought back here by him at the risk of being hunted down by the Adept Realm Cultivator.
The True Essence in his body surged, and slowly poured into this broken mace. And at that moment, the True Essence in Shi Shen’s body actually gave birth tesonance with the broken stone mace, causing it to slightly vibrate, and emit a “weng weng” sound. Yang Junshan could even feel a kind of joyful aura from Shi Shen’s body.
However, this mace was happy, but Yang Junshan was disappointed, because he had refined a mountain cleaver before, and had felt the process of refining a low grade spirit treasure, and according to the speed at which the broken mace was absorbing the True Essence, this stone mace was at most a mid grade spirit treasure, something that could be refined within a month’s time.
A Medial Grade Spirit Treasure, no matter what, was still a treasure. It was just that Yang Junshan had high expectations for it previously.
But in the blink of an eye, three months had passed and Yang Junshan’s mace, the Broken Stones, was still not refined yet.
