Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Chapter 1153: Chapter 775: Return to Divine Wood Island

To facilitate the use of the Pocket World Gate, Yang Zhenshan specially commissioned the construction of a Receiving Great Hall outside Longevity City.

The Receiving Great Hall is responsible for receiving people and materials from the outside world who enter the Spirit Source Land. It is guarded by the Protection Team and managed by the Foreign Affairs Hall.

Yang Zhenshan has also decided on the locations of the two Pocket World Gates.

One is placed on Divine Wood Island, serving as a communication channel between the Spirit Source Land and the Ten Thousand Miles Sea Domain and the Da’an Dynasty.

One is temporarily placed in the backyard of the Yang family’s winery, primarily to facilitate the sale of Spirit Source Land to the outside.

The reason for establishing a Pocket World Gate on Divine Wood Island is not because Yang Zhenshan is reluctant to give up the Yang family’s foundations there, but because he can gather talents from there in the future, especially geniuses who have spiritual apertures and can cultivate in the Immortal Path.

Although the Da’an Dynasty and the Ten Thousand Miles Sea Domain are Spiritual Wildernesses with sparse Spiritual Energy and few Spiritual Objects, there is a large population there. Even if the ratio of people with spiritual apertures is only one in a million, there would still be over a thousand.

Compared to seeking geniuses with spiritual apertures here, Yang Zhenshan thinks it is better to gather them from there.

People here may involve many factions, possibly bringing trouble to the Spirit Source Land, while people there have no prospects with here, and the Martial Arts path there has already been severed. Once they come to the Spirit Source Land, they would likely follow the path to the end, resulting in fewer betrayals and lower probabilities.

In all aspects, attracting talents from there is still very beneficial.

Especially after understanding the existence of spiritual apertures, Yang Zhenshan feels it is even more necessary to attract talents from there.

People with spiritual apertures are incredibly rare, with perhaps not even one in ten thousand people possessing one, but if a couple with spiritual apertures are both Immortal Cultivators, there is a high chance their children will also possess spiritual apertures.

If both parents are at the Foundation Establishment level or higher in cultivation, it’s almost guaranteed their children will possess spiritual apertures.

However, regardless of whether they are Martial Artists or Immortal Cultivators, the higher their cultivation, the lower the chances of pregnancy.

In fact, this has been evident in the Yang family for a long time, as most of the Yang family’s descendants were born before the parents reached the Innate Realm. Once they became Innate Martial Artists, they scarcely managed to conceive again.

Yang Zhenshan and Yu Qingyi are both physically healthy, but over the years, they only have Yang Mingzhao as their sole heir.

Therefore, Yang Zhenshan hopes the Yang family can attract people with spiritual apertures, searching for such individuals from the western Stormy Sea Area and bringing them into the Spirit Source Land to marry into the Yang family, thereby increasing the probability of future generations possessing spiritual apertures.

One or two generations might not show much difference, but after several generations, many descendants of the Yang family will become Immortal Cultivators, thus transforming the Yang family into a prominent Immortal Cultivator clan.

Yang Zhenshan is thinking ahead, but he must plan for the long term.

Firstly, his Divine Soul has already merged with the Origin Core of the Spirit Source Land. As long as the Spirit Source Land remains intact, his Divine Soul will not perish. This is tantamount to a form of immortality.

Secondly, Yu Qingyi is destined to become a Martial Immortal Level powerhouse in the future, possessing at least five hundred years of lifespan. Moreover, if possible, Yang Zhenshan hopes to further extend Yu Qingyi’s lifespan, ideally allowing her to achieve eternal longevity as well.

The future of their partnership is bound to be long-lasting, and the future of the Yang family will inevitably reach new heights.

Hence, considering the long term is never too much.

Even several generations are merely a few hundred years.

Yang Zhenshan believes that considering these matters now is not premature.

After arranging the affairs of the Pocket World Gate, Yang Zhenshan continued to immerse himself in cultivation.

Time passes gently, with half a year gone in the blink of an eye.

After devoting himself to arduous cultivation, Yang Zhenshan finally nurtured the first Qinghua Thunder Pearl. The Qinghua Thunder Pearl is condensed from the blue qi of the Liver Palace, connecting above to the Niwan and below to the Yongquan. Driven by the Divine Soul, it can release "Wood Divine Thunder," combining the vitality of wood with the ferocity of thunder, capable of dispelling evil and curing sickness, as well as promoting the growth of all things.

This is a one-time spell, and the longer it is nurtured, the greater its power. Once used, it requires a long nurturing period before it can be used again.

For Yang Zhenshan, this is a trump card, a life-saving trump card at crucial moments.

Thus, Yang Zhenshan is willing to spend a considerable amount of time and effort cultivating this spell.

At his current level of cultivation, it is the only spell he can practice from the "Qinghua Thunder Skill."

Yang Zhenshan’s cultivation appears busy and monotonous; currently, he is still digesting the various benefits obtained from the Ancient Relic Array.

Nurturing the Qinghua Thunder Pearl is just the beginning. With time, Yang Zhenshan continuously transforms the benefits gained from the Ancient Relic Array into his own strength.

Another half year passed, and Yang Zhenshan reached entry-level mastery of the Void Refining Scripture.

With the Spirit Source Land as the Grotto Heaven, utilizing the power of the Grotto Heaven to refine his Divine Soul Power, through cultivation, Yang Zhenshan clearly feels his Divine Soul growing stronger.

The most significant evidence is the continuous expansion of his Spiritual Sense, from initially only several dozen yards to over a hundred yards.

After reaching entry-level mastery, Yang Zhenshan needs to comprehend the Dao of Nature and Heaven.

This Dao of Nature and Heaven is not the true Dao but rather refers to the unformed heavenly rules within the Grotto Heaven, which are incomplete laws of nature.

Yang Zhenshan is not striving to truly comprehend these Dao Intents. With his current level of cultivation and understanding, he is unable to truly grasp these Dao Intents, but only needs to achieve some insight, knowing its nature without understanding its principle.
