Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather
Chapter 1557 - 965: Demon Beasts of the Spirit Source Land
Yang Zhenshan roughly skimmed through most of the documents, then focused on picking out the intelligence regarding White Cloud Immortal City.
After reading these intelligence reports, he couldn’t help but exclaim, "White Cloud Immortal City has been quite lively recently!"
"Isn’t that right? Even I’ve heard a lot about White Cloud Immortal City!" Yu Qingyi said.
"Where did you hear that from?" Yang Zhenshan was somewhat puzzled. Yu Qingyi rarely left Spirit Source Land, where news was relatively more secluded. Except for Tianshu Tower, few people could understand the outside world.
Yu Qingyi laughed, "Ning Yun told me!"
"Oh, has that girl been coming back less frequently lately?" Yang Zhenshan asked.
Ning Yun is now responsible for many tasks, such as maintaining the teleportation array, maintaining and modifying the arrays of Wuzhen Taoist Palace, researching the Ancient Relic Array, etc.
The two Array Masters in Spirit Source Land, Ma Qiuyan and Ning Yun, as they improved their knowledge of arrays, have shown differences in their array studies.
Ma Qiuyan probably because of Yang Jizhen; after all, they are husband and wife. Ma Qiuyan often helps Yang Jizhen with refining magical treasures, so she focuses more on artifact arrays, excelling at integrating arrays into magical treasures.
Ning Yun, on the other hand, focuses on large arrays, such as large protective arrays, and the fusion of artifact arrays and ground arrays.
Different focuses also lead to different responsibilities for the two. Ma Qiuyan generally stays at Spirit Source Land, researching arrays, mainly assisting Yang Jizhen in refining magical treasures, studying the arrays on large flying boats, and teaching disciples.
Ning Yun stays outside, either at the site of the Ancient Relic Array or at Wuzhen Taoist Palace, making her more familiar with outside information.
"Not really, if she’s not in secluded cultivation, she basically comes back once a month!" Yu Qingyi laughed.
Yang Zhenshan nodded slightly, "I originally wanted her to get married, but unfortunately, she doesn’t fancy Cui Yang!"
Yu Qingyi glanced at him, "Why don’t you say Cui Yang is not interested in it? Enough, stop matchmaking them!"
Yang Zhenshan was a bit helpless.
His mindset is still very traditional, thinking that once the kids grow up, they should marry.
He used to think of pairing Cui Yang with Ning Yun, but neither of them showed any interest in it.
Cui Yang’s personality is too reclusive, and Ning Yun’s is somewhat strong-willed, not someone who would settle down and raise a family.
Of course, it was just a thought, he didn’t force them to pair together.
Yu Qingyi mainly handles these matters; he, as the master, can at most mention it.
"Forget it, let’s not talk about them. I just noticed that some demon beasts have ascended; I need to see them!" Yang Zhenshan changed the topic and said.
"Yes, there are two, Daqing and Jin Yun!"
Yu Qingyi stood up, helped him tidy his vestment robe, and said.
Yang Zhenshan casually took out a communication talisman and activated it. The talisman turned into a streak of light and flew away.
The two then arrived at the main hall waiting.
"You haven’t made a breakthrough!"
"Almost, I already feel the bottleneck, next I just need to keep trying to break through." Yu Qingyi’s brows and eyes were full of joy.
If she can break through again, her cultivation will reach the late stage of the Golden Body Realm. At the late stage of the Golden Body Realm, she can look forward to the Divine Soul Realm.
These years, Yang Zhenshan’s cultivation has advanced rapidly, which made her anxious, fearing that she wouldn’t keep up with Yang Zhenshan’s pace.
Although she’s not an Immortal Cultivator, if her cultivation reaches the Divine Soul Realm, she can touch upon the Golden Core Realm, even if the odds of Core Formation are low, it’s still a hope.
She wants to be a celestial couple with Yang Zhenshan, so she has to keep up with his pace.
"That’s good, try to cultivate properly; let me know if you need anything." Yang Zhenshan said.
Now in martial arts, he can’t really help Yu Qingyi, since his martial arts cultivation hasn’t reached the Golden Body Realm, nor has he personally experienced it.
"Hmm!" Yu Qingyi replied with a gentle smile.
The couple chatted casually, as old couples do, without the previous passion, just the ordinary household chatter.
Moments later, three somewhat peculiar figures appeared in the main hall.
"Greetings, Master!" The three figures kneeled upon seeing Yang Zhenshan.
"Haha, stand up, no need for formalities!" Yang Zhenshan chuckled.
The three stood up, with Yang Zhenshan carefully inspecting them.
These three are the Second-Order demon beasts of Spirit Source Land.
The Green Wolf King needs no mention; it has ascended for years and is still the Hall Master of the Demon Beast Hall at Taiwei Tower.
Daqing is also a familiar face—or rather, a familiar wolf—initially followed the Green Wolf King joining Spirit Source Land, from a First-order Mutant Beast promoted to a Second-order Mutant Beast, then cultivated into a demon beast.
Daqing’s appearance differs significantly from the Green Wolf King; Daqing is a female wolf, with a more petite build, though this petite is in comparison to the Green Wolf King, who’s over two meters tall, while Daqing is about one meter eighty-nine.
Although Daqing has completed the initial transformation, she still retains many features of a green wolf.
Such as vertical pupils, a dark nose, wolf ears, and limbs covered with wolf fur.
However, Daqing’s figure is impressive, with the right curves and shapes, her whole body exuding a maternal glow.
Jin Yun is a Golden Feathered Fire Crow, a female crow, but compared to Daqing, Jin Yun is even smaller, about one meter fifty, draped in golden feathers, with a tuft of golden feather on her forehead, and a crow beak still retained, which makes her look a bit unattractive.
