Chapter 208: Chapter 206: The Yang Family’s Daughter Comes of Age
Those who have played strategy games know that if you want to develop new resources, you first need to establish a base near them.
This time, the fortress not only needed to serve as a rest stop for the cultivators but also as a solid defensive line!
It had to withstand potential crises and ensure the safety of all cultivators.
Yang Shi mobilized the best spiritual building masters of the Danai Dynasty, utilized the Xuan Stone Sect’s storehouses, and constructed a massive fortress city.
This grandiose fortress city, much like another Xuan Stone Sect, stood towering outside the Spirit Lake Manor.
The movements of the spiritual building masters were swift, as they easily lifted thousand-pound stones, and as long as materials were available, they could rapidly lay down the foundations for buildings.
Array Masters also designed various arrays inside and outside the city, both offensive and defensive.
Additionally, Third Grade alchemists drew Earth Fire from underground, supplying the city with an area where alchemy could be performed.
The various Immortal Clans of the Danai Dynasty also lent their hands generously, contributing their strength to show loyalty to the Xuan Stone Sect.
The Spirit Plant Immortal Clans provided a large amount of basic spirit plants for food, while the Spiritual Food Immortal Clans used local ingredients to make various spiritual foods for the cultivators building the fortress city to eat for free.
Expert artifact refining clans made a great number of city-defending spiritual artifacts, while those skilled in talismans hung all sorts of defense talismans on the city walls, assuring safety during the initial construction phase.
The other Immortal Clans contributed either with manpower or financially, each doing their part.
With Yang Shi’s first major initiative, who in all the Danai Dynasty would dare not to support it?
Those clans that vanished from history had given everyone a heads-up not to provoke the now powerful Xuan Stone Sect!
And certainly not to defy the iron-fisted Deputy Sect Master Yang Shi!
Loose cultivators from all over also heeded the imperial edict, coming here in search of opportunities.
The enormous activity here attracted a multitude of demon beasts, and cultivators from all sides joined forces to slay them outside the city, protecting the construction of the fortress city.
And they harvested a large quantity of demon beast spiritual meat.
“This demon beast meat is truly nourishing, comparable to elixirs!”
“Many elixirs are refined from the flesh and blood of demon beasts, so naturally, they are extremely beneficial to us.”
“If we could eat this demon beast meat every day, our cultivation speed would reach a new level…”
“Indeed, and the spiritual energy concentration at the edge of Devil Wind Forest is even higher than on the mainland. Cultivating here, there is nothing but benefits.”
“Everyone says demon beasts are terrifying, but when we cultivators are many… it’s they who should be afraid, haha!”
Cultivators from all over the Dynasty gradually began to understand the meaning behind the decree Yang Shi issued, titled “The Danai Dynasty Cultivators’ Fortune Lies Here.”
Devil Wind Forest is truly a treasure trove!
“Everyone be careful, a group of snake demon beasts has slithered over from the forest, above our heads!”
Yang Fuqing, riding a long-haired parrot, shouted loudly.
The cultivators looked up at the towering trees and indeed, a group of poisonous snakes was silently approaching.
“Such well-concealed snakes… My spiritual sense swept over them and it was like looking at a bunch of branches, I didn’t even notice!” @@novelbin@@
“Thank goodness for Miss Yang’s warning!”
“Kill these beasts!”
Over a hundred cultivators acted simultaneously, directly wiping out all the snake demon beasts, causing the sky to rain down a cascade of green poison blood.
“Big Mao, Second Mao, fan it away!”
“Ga!”
The two large parrots fanned their wings, blasting a cyclone of multi-colored spiritual power, blowing the poison blood away to an uninhabited area.
Whoosh—
Sizzle—
The ground corroded, forming numerous small pits, and surrounding trees were all affected.
A scene of devastation.
“Thank you, Miss Yang, for stepping in! Otherwise, we might have ended up in a sorry state…”
All that poison blood, if not careful, could have caused considerable harm; at the very least, it would have forced out one or two defense talismans, which all cost spirit stones.
“My fellow cultivators, you’re too kind~ It’s my duty to help.”
Yang Fuqing, with all the grace of a well-bred young lady, was polite, leaving a good impression on all the cultivators.
She dealt with demon beasts frequently, knew the traits of some around Devil Wind Forest like the back of her hand, and was the best teacher for these cultivators.
Furthermore, she had recruited the intelligent Rainbow Parrot clan. Without signing any contracts or using any Beast Taming Techniques, she had conquered these chatty, long-haired oddities with her own charm.
In the Devil Wind Forest, her eyes were everywhere.
Yang Fuqing had been far from idle these years; she was the key person in Yang Genshuo’s plans for the Devil Wind Forest!
She provided something the Danai Dynasty had never possessed before—a map.
It detailed the distribution, strength, and habits of various Demon Beasts at a glance.
With this map, the Danai Dynasty no longer had to explore with the blood of Cultivators but could see as if with Heaven’s Eye!
Besides exploring the Devil Wind Forest, Yang Fuqing spent these years practicing inside Yang Shi’s Immortal Mansion.
Together with various Elixirs and treasures sent by her two older brothers, her cultivation speed was even faster than the disciples of the Cloud Hidden Spirit Sect!
She had already reached the Third Grade of Qi Cultivation!
And the Spirit Beasts she could command exceeded the number of a common Beast Tamer, making her extremely powerful.
Yang Genshuo opened Yang Fuqing’s Character Card and looked at her Talent, where a Heavenly Level Talent hung high and was particularly dazzling.
[Beast Spirit Body (Heavenly Level): Innately able to communicate with any Spirit Beast, increase in Spirit Beast and Demon Clan Favorability by +50, increase in Beast Taming Techniques speed by +50%, and increase in Beast Taming limit by +5. (Enhanced by the influence of the Mingxin Technique from the Talent ‘Beast Soul Resonance’)]
Members of the Yang Family practiced the Mingxin Technique, which allowed them to raise one aspect of their Talent by one level after reaching the innate grandmaster stage.
What originally was an Earth Level “Beast Soul Resonance” became the Heavenly Level “Beast Spirit Body”, allowing Yang Fuqing to move through the Devil Wind Forest like a fish in water.
Not only was the danger reduced, but her cultivation speed was swift. Moreover, her tamed beasts… weren’t just these parrots, which served as her mounts and messengers, but the real fighters… were within her Soul Seal.
The Cultivation Technique “Soul Seal Beast Taming Technique” allowed her to tame and brand Demon Beasts within her body, creating a space similar to a storage ring within her dantian, where those Demon Beasts could rest and practice, sharing her cultivation progress.
Normally, a Qi Refinement Realm Beast Tamer like her could only brand at most 2 Demon Beasts of the same level, but with her Talent’s boost, she could simultaneously tame 7!
In this Devil Wind Forest, even her two older brothers might not say for certain they could outdo their sister.
“Since it is still early in the day, is there anyone willing to join me in clearing out the poison spiders?”
Yang Fuqing called out, and some of the younger male Cultivators responded immediately.
“Miss Yang, we’ll accompany you!”
“Count me in, I’ve been itching to get rid of those obstructive spiders for a while now!”
“Could Yang teach my younger brother some Beast Taming Techniques?”
“Does Miss Yang have a Daoist couple?”
Some bold Cultivators couldn’t help but express their determination to progress.
Being a son-in-law of the Yang Family, one could walk sideways in the Danai Dynasty!
“Hehe~ Follow me to clear the Demon Beasts, and I’ll treat you to Spirit Brew from the Fierce Sun Dynasty afterwards.”
“Deal~~~”
Yang Fuqing took the lead, and the Cultivators followed her to clear out the poison spiders that lay before them. These creatures lurked around the edges of the Devil Wind Forest, blocking the path to its deeper regions, and had to be eliminated.
“Count me in.”
A swordsman wearing a bamboo hat followed the crowd.
The Cultivators chuckled upon seeing him.
“This brother must be an innate grandmaster, right? Don’t get too close; these little demon beasts know some sorcery, and it would be bad if you got hurt.”
“If you intend to vanquish demons, you could join the Martial God Team of the Xuan Stone Sect, and after practicing Commanding Techniques, you will have some self-protection capabilities.”
“It’s still too much of a strain for an innate grandmaster. If you insist on coming with us, I’ll give you a First Grade Amulet which might save your life in a critical moment.”
Whoosh!
A sword flew past the face of a Cultivator and plunged into the ground like lightning, piercing through the head of a massive Qi Refinement Realm wolf ant lurking underground, causing it to convulse and die.
Seeing the split earth and the dead Qi Refinement Realm Demon Beast inside,
The Cultivators: “…”
They hadn’t even noticed the demon beast’s presence!
Yang Fujian indifferently sheathed his sword and then took the offered First Grade Amulet into his embrace.
“Thanks.”
