Chapter 756 – Shushu County

“Senior, junior has come as promised!”

Daofather Ziyuan answered with a “En” and said, “You are even more outstanding than I imagined!”

“Thank you for your praise, senior. This junior does not dare to accept it.” Yang Junshan said.

Dao Ancestor Ziyuan nodded, and suddenly changed the topic, and asked: “I heard that your sects are very tight on Opening Spirit School recently?”

Although he had been cultivating behind closed doors for the past two years, he was naturally clear about the matters of the Yao County. Currently, Yue Yao County was only a third of the way, and the Opening Spirit School still occupied three of the small towns in Yue Yao County. On the other hand, the fire valley and the Zichu had secretly joined hands with the Madame Yang in an attempt to pressure the Opening Spirit School from behind so that they could expel the Opening Spirit School from Yue Yao County.

However, the matter had not started, so Yang Junshan still had room for manoeuvre, and said: “Madame Yang only occupies the territory that she snatched back from the Spirit Demon cultivators.”

Daofather Ziyuan waved her hand, and said: “Naturally, I, Daofather, have no interest in this. It’s just that this Daofather had once said that in order to protect the Opening Spirit School’s legacy, it is best to maintain the current situation regarding the Yao County.

Yang Junshan replied respectfully: “Junior will inform the two sects about senior’s intentions.”

Dao Ancestor Ziyuan’s expression did not change, she only said one sentence: “Let’s go, we are in a hurry!”

This was the second time that Yang Junshan had come to the Sangzhou. The Sangzhou to him was equivalent to the Buried Sky Ruins to the Buried Sky Ruins, and was an extremely unique and secret location within the cultivation world of the Sangzhou. On the way, Yang Junshan had asked Daofather Ziyuan many questions about the everlasting dense forest, which allowed him to havather good understanding of the unique grounds of the Sangzhou.

Every time it opened, there would be a large amount of heaven and earth treasures that appeared. The cultivation world of the Sangzhou would always have a large number of cultivators enter the place at this time, and each time, they would use their own methods to snatch it away, and it was usually a grand occasion for the cultivation world of the Sangzhou.

Furthermore, every three hundred years, the great formation enveloping the everlasting dense forest would weaken, and at that time, Great Divine Cultivator from the cultivation world would gather together and fight for the treasures that would be nurtured. This had become a grand occasion for the entire cultivation world.

The opening of the everlasting dense forest this time was the opportunity to weaken the great array formation that only appeared once every three hundred years. Furthermore, Daofather Ziyuan was determined to obtain a treasure that might be born in the everlasting dense forest.

The location of the everlasting dense forest was different every time it appeared. Normally, it would be seen alternately between the seven counties of the Sangzhou, but this time, the forerunner of the dense forest appeared in Huai County. This location had its subtleties in the Sangzhou itself.

This was also the most chaotic place in the history of the Sangzhou, where all kinds of powerhouses and factions were present. It could be said that once I entered the stage, I would never leave the sect, and the only thing that changed was that Ling Yizong, Thousand Lake Sect and Qing Mu Sect played a huge role behind the scenes, but under normal circumstances, it was only with the combination of the Thousand Lake Sect and Qing Mu Sect that they were able to resist Ling Yizong’s aggressive attacks. Furthermore, there were times when Yang Jun’s Auxiliary Faction was needed to join hands and fight against the Ling Yizong of the three families.

After the descent of the foreign forces, the Four Major Sects of the Sangzhou retracted their power and gave priority to their respective areas of influence. This directly caused the various powers of the Huai Family to lose the support of their own forces and be unable to resist the invasion of the foreign forces.

“In other words, in the competition for the everlasting dense forest, we will not only face the Taoist Ancestors from the different sects in the cultivation world, but also those in the Taoist Realm from the foreign powers?”

Dao Ancestor Ziyuan nodded, glanced at her, and said: “What, are you afraid?”

Yang Junshan laughed bitterly: “Of course I am, according to what senior said, when the everlasting dense forest opens together for three hundred years, only the Taoist Ancestor can participate, this junior has a small Heavenly Dipper Sword, it is all thanks to Senior’s protection, if Senior is entangled with the Taoist Ancestor, any other ancestor would be able to squash him with just a finger, ah!”

The truth is that every time the everlasting dense forest is opened, there would be cultivators of the late stage of the realms of life who would head out to take the risk. It might even be possible that in the end, they would be able to get the treasures inside first before the Daoist cultivators do, you are a formation master, if by any chance I am stopped, you, Master Jun Shan, might become one of the lucky ones! ”

Senior, please don’t joke around with me. Although I am a rough person with formation techniques, I do not dare to admit that I am one of the lucky ones.

Daofather Ziyuan looked at him again, then smiled: “Don’t worry, everlasting dense forest is a wondrous place, as long as you enter and retreat, very few people will return empty-handed.”

Yang Junshan muttered to himself for a moment, and still asked: “Senior said before, the location of this everlasting dense forest is different every time he opens it, and the treasures that may appear are also different. Senior, how can you be sure that the treasure this time around is something senior needs?”

On top of a purple cloud, Daofather Ziyuan was elegantly tasting the spirit tea within the teacup as she said: “I have told you before, that there was a sign thaverlasting dense forest appeared in the Huai County, and this kind of sign usually means that the everlasting dense forest was producing a treasure this time around.”

Yang Junshan asked again: “Then what is the premonition that came along with the appearance of the Scholartree Manor?”

After putting down the teacup in his hand, Daofather Ziyuan smiled slightly and said: “It’s a gourd vine!”

“Is this Scholartree Manor?”

Yang Junshan looked down from atop the purple cloud and said, “Didn’t they say that Huai Rou Province is the most chaotic place in the Sangzhou? How come you seem abnormally calm on the road now?”

Although Dao Ancestor Ziyuan’s temperament looked graceful, it was actually a lively disposition. Although she had the cultivation level of the third level of the Spirit Dao Realm, her personality contained the feelings of a little girl, and upon hearing what was said, she immediately giggled: “Your question is very childish. Now that the Scholartree Manor has gathered many Great Divine Cultivator s, the number of Scholartree County’s Dao Realm cultivators might even exceed that of the Heavenly Dipper Realm.

Yang Junshan understood that he had asked an idiotic question, hence he smiled awkwardly, scratched the back of his head and said: “According what senior said, the treasure that will appear in the everlasting dense forest this time will be the calabash vine. In that case, what kind of treasure would appear when the everlasting dense forest was opened in the past?”

He said, “Three hundred years ago, when this Daofather had just advanced into the Dao Realm, I heard that the everlasting dense forest was fighting over this matter, but in the end, my strength was insufficient. In order to obtain this item, the Yanzhou senotal of six Daoists over, three of which were from the Burning Heaven Clan. After a large battle in the forest, the Yanzhou paid the price of one Daoist’s death to seize five of the seven Fusang Trees, while the Burning Heaven Clan’s family had three.”

After saying that, Dao Ancestor Ziyuan seemed to have thought of something interesting, and said: “Speaking of the Fusang Wood Branch, other than the five that the five Daoists of Yanzhou obtained, do you know who else got the other two?”

Yang Junshan asked with doubt: “For who?”

However, it is said that the other one is in the hands of a lucky Adept Realm Cultivator. This is also the reason why the few Daoists in the Yanzhou were not able to obtain this Fusang Tree in the end, after all, Ling Yizong is a large sect that is comparable to the Burning Heaven Clan. Furthermore, the Sangzhou is Ling Yizong’s territory, even the strong dragons of the Burning Heaven Clan would not dare to provoke the likes of Ling Yizong.

Yang Junshan was shocked: “That Fu Sang Mu is a Fire Elemental Treasure, but for this item, even a cultivator of the Dao was killed, is it worth it?”

Daofather Ziyuan shot him a glance and said: “What do you know? After refining this type of treasure, you can raise a cultivator’s cultivation technique by a single grade. Do you know what that means?”

Without waiting for Yang Junshan’s reply, Dao Ancestor Ziyuan continued: “This means that a cultivator whose potential has already been exhausted can once again improve! The highest potential a cultivator who cultivateigh-grade treasured cultivation technique can only reach the Qingyun Realm, so it is extremely unlikely for him to raise his Huagai’s field level. However, once he refines a precious treasure that is compatible with his attributes, his cultivation technique would be comparable to the legacy of a low-grade Dao cultivator, which would greatly increase the chances of breaking through to the Huagai’s field itself. ”

What Yang Junshan was thinking about now was actually the Scarlet Wood Staff that Yang Junhao had refined. Adept Qiyang suspected that it was a Fire Elemental Treasure and that this brat was cultivating a high-grade precious technique, the Inheritance Flaming Heart Lotus.

No wonder why it was so easy for this kid to cultivate the Seven Suns Flaming Fire Arts, and why he didn’t even need to refine the fire valley’s secret Fire Gathering Tower!

Ziyuan did not know what Yang Junshan was thinking, but he continued, “Of course, there are more benefits from this type of treasure, it is easier to cultivate this ability, and it’s power will increase by a large amount, this requires the cultivator to comprehend it on his own while he cultivates it.”

“After cultivating foundred li, one would have passed through ninety stages of the Dao Realm. However, at this time, his potential is exhausted. Which Taoist do you think would be willing to wait for death in such a situation?” At this moment, even if there is the slightest bit of hope, we will still fight to the death. If we are unable to live forever at our current level, what’s the point of living for another three to five hundred years? Therefore, those who are not ambitious for the sake of immortality have a saying that the older they are, the more timid they are. However, for those who are ambitious for the sake of immortality, the opposite is often true! ”

Three hundred years ago, in the battle of the everlasting dense forest, one of the six Daoists fell, and that was only the Yanzhou. In fact, five Daoists were killed in that battle, one of them being the only Daoism cultivator in the Heaven-Shaken Sect whose lifespan was almost exhausted, and one of them was even more injured.
