Chapter 865 – Yang Yao

As the person with the highest cultivation level out of all the cultivators in Yang family, the Adept Zhou Yi was undoubtedly grateful to the Yang family!

In the past few years, he had been guarding the Huyao County for a long time. In order to stabilize the situation in the Yang family, the Yang family had now extended its influence to all aspects of the Huyao County. It could be said that the entire Huyao County had now become the object of the Yang family.

Although the Yang family was very polite to him, the number of times Adept Zhou Yi entered the Western Mountain could be counted on one hand!

Of course, the Adept Zhou Yi knew the meaning of the West Mountain to the entire Yang Family, and also knew that the West Mountain was the true essence and foundation of the Yang family. In the entire Yang family, who knew how many juniors sharpened their heads in order to enter the West Mountain and borrow their abundant spirit energy to cultivate.

In reality, the few people from the Yang family also invited him to come to the West Mountain several times in good faith. As a sharing of cultivation resources, they used the two spiritual rivers here to undergo closed-door cultivation.

But because of this, the Adept Zhou Yi deliberately avoided going to the Western Mountain. In these few years, other than discussing matters and reporting in a certain sense, the Adept Zhou Yi rarely stepped foot in the Western Mountain!

The Adept Zhou Yi had an extremely good grasp of his own location. He knew that as the Yang family grew more and more prosperous, the various relationships in the family would also become thousands of times, and there would be a myriad of demands for benefits.

In the past few years, even though he had been doing a great job in the Huyao County, but in reality, he was very clear about the competition among the Yang Family, from the county city to the town, to the village, and even to the number of Spiritual Farmers. Who knows how many battles, exchanges and compromises were going to take place between them.

The fighting methods of these Madame Yang Clan members might still be young and inexperienced, and because of Yang Tiangang and his father’s strength, the competition behind all three of them still guarded their limits, but they already had what they deserved. Whether it was an individual or a group, as they grew up, they would never be able to remain as innocent as they were in the beginning.

As the elder with the highest cultivation in the Yang family, he might be able to gain the respect of the members of the Madame Yang based on his cultivation alone, but it would be extremely difficult for him to avoid stepping into the competition between the various families and forces.

However, this time he had no choice but to step into the Western Mountain once again, because the one who called out to him was Yang Junshan, his good friend and true protector.

If it was said that the backbone of the entire Yang family was Patriarch Yang Tiangang, then Yang Junshan was the totem of the entire Yang family. He was the foundation for the entire Yang family to stand at the top of the cultivation world and fight evenly with the various powers.

However, the Adept Zhou Yi felt that something was strange, after hearing that Yang Junshan had went to Xi Zhou foeriod of time, there was no news of him for the next year, and no news that he had returned. With the sudden exchange of moves, the Adept Zhou Yi could only lament that the actions of the Jun Shan could not be fathomed, and had become increasingly mysterious.

There were array traps everywhere. If someone trespassed, even the Adept Realm Cultivator would not be able to obtain any benefits.

The western mountain was becoming more and more majestic. However, the path to enter the western mountain was extremely easy to find. One only needed to find a towering tree at the foot of the mountain.

Some said that the Jun Shan found a spirit tree variant under the tree many times before she advanced to realms of life. Some even said that the Jun Qi was muttering under the tree as if she was talking to the tree, and some said that the tree was actually a base of the array that the Jun Shan was setting up, and that some people had attempted to charge into the Western Mountain, but were surprised that they were blocked by the array and captured by the tree.

There were many stories about the poplar, and in a sense, the poplar had become a symbol.

When Adept Zhou Yi arrived at the foot of the Western Mountain, he looked at the towering tree beside him and felt an intense feeling in his heart.

However, just two or three years ago, this tree looked like it was only thirty to forty feet tall. Although its vitality was astonishing, being in the Western Mountain, being nourished by spirit energy day and night, it was normal that there would be some changes. He did not see the pomegranate forest on the Western Mountain, and every year, the pomegranate fruit would become the Yang Family’s treasure.

In just a short two to three years, the tree had suddenly grown by more than a hundred feet, and the gigantic crown of the tree was verdant and lush, not affected by the seasons at all. The year was always green, and what was even weirder, was that the originally majestic vitality of the tree was not present, but instead, it looked like an extremely ordinary tree, but right now, it seemed more like a living thing, as if it was no longeree, but a person. Perhaps it was because of its thoughts, Adept Zhou Yi even felt that the tree was’ looking ‘a(chǎn)t him.

Could this tree have become a demon?

A thought suddenly popped up in Adept Zhou Yi’s mind, but when he thought about the cultivators of the Goblin Tribe on the Tuo Wu Shan, the Jun Shan Spirit Master “raised demons” had a “history”. If he could recogniziger demon as his sworn sister and raise the leader of the Tuo Wu Shan’s Goblin Cultivators, allowing a group of monkey demons to build a tribe of Goblins and build a nest of crow demons to spread across the borders of the three counties and towards the entire Yuzhou, then “raised” one more tree demon under the Western Mountain did not mean much.

However, since the arrival of Alien Cultivator, only birds, beasts and the like had become demons, but no demonic cultivator like flowers, plants and trees.

What the Adept Zhou Yi did not know was that after he hastily walked towards the west mountain, a little girl around ten years old came out from behind the tree trunk and looked at his back.

The Spirit Spring Room had now been converted into the Spirit Spring Hall, which had become the meeting hall for the Yang family’s public affairs.

Following the rise of the Western Mountain, the secret room within the Spirit Spring Water continuously expanded. Furthermore, with the growth and influence of the Madame Yang, the things that were treated as treasures no longer needed to be concealed.

The center of the Spirit Spring Hall was still a pool, but the pool was much larger than before. This pool of water was the source of a large vein, and at the same time, it was the spillway of two spirit rivers. It was the place with the densest amount of spirit energy in the entire Western Mountain.

Yang Junshan wanted to meet the Adept Zhou Yi in the Spirit Spring Hall.

When Adept Zhou Yi hastily stepped into the Spirit Spring Hall, he saw a figure standing at the other end of the pool.

Adept Zhou Yi cupped his hands and laughed: “When did Brother Yang return from Xi Zhou? How come there was no news about you?”

Hearing his words, the standing figure of his back moved and slowly turned around. Adept Zhou Yi’s smile froze on his face and a face that made him shiver with fear appeared in front of him.

“Lin Canghai, how could it be you!”

Adept Zhou Yi shouted in shock, and even his voice started to go out of tune!

Lin Canghai let out a strange laugh, and immediately after, the sound of a sword could be heard, aay of sword light rushed straight towards his chest.

Adept Zhou Yi, after a brief moment of panic, quickly reacted. He turned into seven or eight rays of light, dispersing towards all directions of the Spirit Spring Hall, avoiding Lin Canghai’s flying swords as he took the chance to counterattack. A few rays of green light shot towards Lin Canghai from different directions.

At the same time, Adept Zhou Yi’s heart was in turmoil, how could Lin Canghai appear here? Could it be that the Yang family had submitted under the pressure of Grandmaster Xuan Yuan, and that he had become the Yang Family’s whim?

But even so, how could the Yang Family allow Lin Canghai to make a move in the Spirit Spring Room, and even if they wanted to, there were many array formations in the west mountain, any of them could be easily suppressed by a Profound Handle Cultivator like him, so why would they make such a move.

When Adept Zhou Yi unleashed his all of his skills in battle with Lin Canghai, the effects of the battle in the Spirit Spring Hall had completely changed. That Lin Canghai seemed to have his own reservations, it was said that the person was already at the peak of the Heavenly Dipper Realm, and could advance to the Supreme Force at any time, but the strength that he was displaying was only on par with the Adept Zhou Yi.

After the initial panic, the Adept Zhou Yi’s heart became more and more suspicious. The appearance of Lin Canghai, as well as everything that happened in the Spirit Spring Hall, seemed to reveal a strange feeling, especially Lin Canghai’s cultivation level, not to mention how he could suppress his own cultivation, he seemed to be extremely familiar with the methods of the Adept Zhou Yi during the fight, and even predicted that the enemy would strike first, just this point was not enough. Although the Adept Zhou Yi had followed Lin Canghai for a short period of time, they did not fight and did not understand each other, so how could Lin Canghai be so familiar with his technique!

The more Adept Zhou Yi fought, the more suspicious he became. At this time, Lin Canghai suddenly roared loudly, his Divine Sword turned intay of light and flew across the Spirit Spring Water Pool towards him.

Adept Zhou Yi raised his brows, and actually also turned into a ball of cold wind as he rushed towards Lin Canghai.

Pfft, Lin Canghai’s long sword pierced through Adept Zhou Yi’s chest, but Adept Zhou Yi did not dodge at all, and there was not even a trace of fear on his face, but he opened his mouth and released a burst of source energy, blowing Lin Canghai into pieces.

The originally messy Spirit Spring Hall had returned to its original state, while Adept Zhou Yi stood in his original position, the True Essence in his body was still as calm as ever, there were no signs of him being used at all.

Clap clap clap * The sound of clapping came from a corner of the hall.

Hearing that, Adept Zhou Yi looked over, to see Yang Junshan smiling: “Congratulations Brother Zhou for slaying this Inner Demon, the Heavenly Dipper Realm Realm is in sight!”

Adept Zhou Yi asked uncertainly: “Is this an illusory magic array?”

Yang Junshan pointed to the Spirit Spring Water Pool in the center, and said: “It’s because of this item.”

Adept Zhou Yi looked towards the pool, only to see that other than the dense Qi coming out from the useful spring, there were a few huge clams the size of a washbasin at the bottom of the pool. When he looked at the giant clams, his expression became absent-minded, as if the spring water in the pool was going to flood over and drown him, causing him to feel like he was suffocating in the water.

The consciousness in Adept Zhou Yi’s mind surged, the scene in front of him shattered once again, but when he looked at the giant clams at the bottom of the pond, he was surprised, and asked: “What is this, for it to be so mystical?”

Yang Junshan laughed: This thing is called Emerald Mussel, obtained from this trip to Xi Zhou!
