Chapter 205 – Ink Stones
An Xia excitedly stood up to prepare the supplies, but unexpectedly, Yang Junshan blocked him, and laughed: “No rush, the reason why I called uncle back this time was that I wanted you to help me manage the village for a few days. As for the matter of collecting supplies, my nephew already has an idea, but I need to confirm it first, but after the field opens, I will need you to personally step in.”
An Xia had surprisingly forgotten about Yang Junshan for a moment, but he knew that this nephew of his could not use a normal person’s eyes to measure his level. After hearing this, she muttered to herself for a moment, but didn’t ask Yang Junshan how to gather more materials, and only said: “Alright, I can take a break now, it’s about time for Hao’er to test out his spirit, your Seventh Aunt has always been soft-hearted, and doesn’t know how much this child will suffer, and just so happens that I need to discipline his properly, so I can start off with a dozen of foundation.”
Yang Junshan was startled when he heard it. Yang Junhao was already going to start the test this year?
Just then, An Xia stood up and was about to leave. Just as Yang Junshan stood up, he saw An Xia turn back, as if he had thought of something, and said: There’s one more thing, I’m afraid that after this autumn, the village will need to be prepared, I’m afraid a large group of people from Bluestone Town’s family will move here!
The reason why Yang Junshan wanted to go out personally, was because of the two other treasures left behind by the Changsun Family. The remnant map that Yang Junshan had obtained earlier had three treasures marked on it, and of the three treasures, the one that was located in the west side of the Jinxi Cliff Cave, which was the closest to the Mengyu County’s territory, had already been found and moved out.
For example, in terms of spirit materials, the majority of them were mid to low grade magic materials, and occasionally, a few high grade magic materials were already extremely rare. As for the last set of spirit arts that Yang Junshan had found, the set of Longevity Tactic inheritance, that was basically the most precious thing in the entire treasury.
As the only powerful inheritance of the Jinyu County that had existed for nearly a thousand years, how could the Changsun Family only have such common goods? And afteeriod of village protection formation and Yang Tiangang’s closed-door training, the remaining half of the resources in the Jin Xi Cliff Cave were almost used up.
Especially after Yang Junshan defeated Xiong Xizhe with the Chess array, just like what Xiong Xizhe had sensed afterwards, the spirit array Yang Junshan had set up was actually a further deduction for the village protection formation array diagram. From then on, the speed at which the village protection formation progressed was even faster, and the supplies that could still be maintained foeriod of time became scarce because of the faster consumption rate.
Therefore, Yang Junshan planned to go to the other two locations to look at the treasures marked on the map fragment. Moreover, the urgency in Yang Junshan’s heart was growing, and the Xishan Village really needed a large amount of resources to accumulate.
But there was another important reason, and that was that Yang Junshan felt that his cultivation was getting closer and closer to the second stage of martial arts realm. He wanted to use the village protection formation to create a connection with the spirit source and attack the second stage of martial arts realm, even though the chance of success was very small.
The location that Yang Junshan was looking for this time was within the borders of the Mengyu County. Although the location of the treasure in the west cliff cave of Jin Xi was within the borders of the Jinyu County, it was still relatively close to the Xishan Village.
But after a few days, when Yang Junshan finally found the treasure deposit, he changed his mind in the end and decided to take a look inside the Chenyu County’s treasure deposit again.
The reason was simple, the location of the Mengyu County’s treasure was located right below a gigantic sand dune, and right below the sand dune was the newly risen up Shatian Village of Sandtown. Because of the integration of the Village Head Tian Zheng of the village, several villages of the Sandtown respected Tian Zheng, and not only was half of the Sandtown being covered in water from the operation of the Tian Zhang, one could even walk around dozens of carriages of cultivation resources under Tian Zhengwan’s nose, unless the entire Sandtown was blind.
With no other choice, Yang Junshan could only hide in the sand dune underground cave that was the location of the treasure and collect all the precious items that he liked. Before he left, he considered that he was too close to Sha Tian Village, so he laid a concealment array at the entrance of the cave that was already hidden, and left first.
After returning to the Xishan Village, Yang Junshan was in the Spirit Origin Cave, counting the things he brought back from the Wangshan Town.
This list was a lot of the same as the one that Yang Junshan had given to him earlier. However, the forty-nine spirit materials listed on it for refining Chess had long been marked out in six different places, and these things could be found in the wealth that Xishan Village had accumulated over the past few years.
However, after coming out of the Sandtown this time, Yang Junshan drew out nine types of spirit materials from the items he brought out. Although he had already found fifteen of the forty-nine spirit materials in a short few days, the spirit materials in the Sandtown’s underground cave were like a mountain, but these nine were the only materials that could be used to make the Chess, making Yang Junshan sigh at the difficulty of refining this Chess.
Aside from searching for the spirit materials needed to refine Chess in the treasury, Yang Junshan also found five other spirit materials that could be used to increase the usage of their spirit artifacts and Mountain Monarch Seal s.
Refining a Middle Ranked Equipment would at most require twenty four types of Middle Ranked Spirit Materials, but Mountain Monarch Seal itself was a Spirit Tool, so to level up to a Middle Ranked Spirit Tool, Yang Junshan did not need to use so many kinds of Spirit Materials, but to refine his own Life Ranked Spirit Tools, Yang Junshan had to prepare as much as possible for the twenty-four Spirit Materials.
Adding these five medium-grade spirit materials into the mix, he had already found sixteen out of twenty-four medium-grade spirit materials, and two-thirds of the spirit materials were already in his possession.
Other than these medium quality and low quality spirit materials, Yang Junshan had also brought back all seven high quality spirit materials from the cave. Of these seven high quality spirit materials, he only coincidentally used three of them at the moment.
Other than searching for spirit materials in the Sandtown’s cave, Yang Junshan also found a batch of pills needed for Mortal Realm and Martial Realm Cultivator’s cultivation. However, because Yang Junshan’s storage bag space was limited, he only brought back the eight to nine most valuable spirit pellets, of which six were suitable for use in Martial Realm Cultivator. Yang Junshan kept two, and the remaining four were given to Han Xiumei, An Xia, Yang Tieniu and Wu Shuo.
Although the Spirit Repelling Pills did not help him in breaking through cultivation bottlenecks, it was still beneficial for his cultivation. These two bottles were enough for Yang Junshan to increase his cultivation to the peak of the first stage for three months or more.
Of the remaining three bottles of Pure Yuan Spirit Pellet, other than the two that were suitable for the third stage of the martial arts realm, it would be extremely helpful for the cultivators who had condensed the Pure Yuan Spirit Pellet. Especially since once Yang Tiangang had broken through to the fourth stage, the Pure Yuan Spirit Pellet would be the best aid in consolidating their cultivation.
In addition, there was another box of uncut jade crystals. Yang Junshan reckoned that there were at least sixty to seventy jade coins that had been cut, and their value was equivalent to six or seven thousand Jade Coins s.
In fact, in the Wangshan Town’s underground cave, there were three big wooden boxes filled with Jade Coins. Yang Junshan estimated that there were at least ten thousand Jade Coins inside, which could be considered a huge windfall, but could only be stored in the underground cave for now.
However, all of these were not the most precious things in this cave. On the ground at a corner of this cave, Yang Junshan once again discovered a formation that was exactly the same as the one in the Jin Xi Cliff Cave.
After Yang Junshan carefully broke the array, he found two things inside, but there was no complete set of spirit arts inheritance system like the one before, but the joy he got from obtaining one of these spirit arts was not at all.
never thought that the Changsun Family would actually store a complete set of spirit of breaking mountain s, this was a divine ability that was even more powerful than the clematis. If Yang Junshan could cultivate it successfully, not only would he be able to master two sets of inheritance in the early stages of the martial arts realm, more importantly, his own strength would also increase greatly.
More importantly, in his previous life, Yang Junshan had heard that the spirit of breaking mountain should have originally been an inheritance passed down in the Heaven-Shaken Sect.
Other than this inheritance of spirit techniques, the other treasure that Yang Junshan had found was a foot square black colored stone. It was precisely because this black colored stone took up too much space within Yang Junshan’s storage bag, that caused Yang Junshan to have no choice but to reduce the number of cultivation resources brought back.
Yang Junshan himself did not know what this black stone was, but the moment he saw it, he was sure that it was a Spirit Ranked material. This was because the black stone was made from the same material as the broken spear head that Yang Junshan had obtained at Jinyu County, and the broken spear head was originally the spirit artifact of Spiritual Master Cang Wu who fell in Heaven-Shaken Sect.
A spirit material was essential for refining spirit artifacts. This was the first time Yang Junshan had ever seen a treasure of such quality, so the excitement in his heart could not be hidden.
However, what Yang Junshan wanted to do the most was to find the treasure hidden in the’s third treasury. Since the most important items in the first two treasury were hidden in the Changsun Family’s formations, it was likely that the third treasury was no exception.
However, just as Yang Junshan was planning to head to Chenyu County, something big happened there that made Yang Junshan have no choice but to delay his journey. The Wangqiu Town that was guarding the border between Mengyu County and Mengyu County suddenly died.
The moment the news spread, people from the Xiong Family and the county magistrate arrived at the Wangqiu Town at almost the same time. The two sides seemed to have gotten into an argument, and in the end, they teamed up to seal the defending grounds of the Wangqiu Town.
The cause of death of the Xiong Man Shan suddenly became the hottest topic in the entire Mengyu County. All kinds of rumors were spread, making it hard to tell whether they were true or false, but just at that moment, Wu Shuo found Yang Junshan and said: “I sensed the aura of my clan members.”
