Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather.

Chapter 912 The Sea of ​​Spiritual Beauty is about to change!

Inside the Blood Spider Imprisoning Immortal Formation.

The fierce battle was over, and Zhang Mo looked at Lin Daoyuan, Yue'e, and Han Jiangche, who were trapped in a hallucination, and laughed excitedly.

"Hahaha~~"

"Three Divine Soul Realm warriors, hahaha, very good, very good~~"

"You two deserve the greatest credit for this battle. From now on, you two will stay by my side and be my right and left arms!"

He said this to Yang Shenwu and Zhang Xian.

Yang Shenwu and Zhang Xian were both his ghost soldiers, and Zhang Xian's breakthrough to the Divine Soul Realm was due to his secret cultivation.

As for when he started training Zhang Xian, it wasn't very long ago, but rather when Baiyun Immortal City was about to establish Qingli Immortal City in Lianxin Valley.

At that time, he realized that he could no longer cause trouble in the Qingli Dynasty, so he immediately shifted his focus.

Among the many forces surrounding the Cloud Soaring Mountains, he chose the Netherworld Prison and the Sea of ​​Spiritual Beauty.

Because other forces were either not strong enough or had intricate connections with Baiyun Immortal City, he dared not provoke Baiyun Immortal City. Therefore, he could only target those forces that were not closely related to Baiyun Immortal City.

He also disregarded those immortal cultivation families and sects that had one or two Foundation Establishment cultivators.

He was more interested in martial artists at the Divine Soul Realm than Foundation Establishment cultivators.

A martial artist in the Divine Soul Realm is half a level stronger than a Foundation Establishment cultivator. At the same time, a martial artist in the Divine Soul Realm is not as terrifying as a Golden Core cultivator. With his strength, combined with formations and some underhanded tricks, he can still take down a martial artist in the Divine Soul Realm.

Therefore, he ultimately set his sights on the Netherworld Gate and the Sea of ​​Spiritual Beauty.

However, the Netherworld Sect was a large and complete sect, and it was quite difficult to acquire such a large sect. In addition, he did not find a suitable candidate within the Netherworld Sect, so he gave up on it.

As for Lingxiu Zhihai, he chose Zhang Xian.

Zhang Xian has both talent and cultivation; he's just one step away from breaking through to the Divine Soul Realm.

At the same time, Zhang Xian harbored hatred in his heart, hatred towards the Netherworld Prison, as well as hatred towards the Xuanqing Sect and the Illusion Moon Sect.

That's right, he not only hates the Netherworld Sect, but also the Mysterious Purity Sect and the Illusion Moon Sect.

Although his teachers and fellow disciples all died under the blades of the Netherworld Sect, the failure of the Xuanqing Sect and the Huanyue Sect to provide rescue was also a contributing factor.

Zhang Xian harbored resentment and was eager to break through, so he was easily dragged onto Zhang Mo's pirate ship.

Zhang Mo provided him with many resources, helping him achieve a breakthrough.

After he achieved his breakthrough, he also dragged Yang Shenwu onto the same path.

Yang Shenwu wanted to refuse, but his refusal was useless because his soul was restricted by the Ten Thousand Ghost Blood Jade. Even if he was unwilling, Zhang Mo could still refine him into a blood pool puppet without self-awareness.

In the end, he compromised and became a slave at Zhang Mo's beck and call.

Zhang Xian went to persuade Lin Daoyuan and Yue'e to fight against Youyumen, but only to lull them into a false sense of security.

His goal was to get the two of them to participate in his Martial Arts Grand Ceremony.

As he had planned, Lin Daoyuan and Yue'e did not want to go to war with the Youyu Sect, but they could not refuse the newly promoted Martial Immortal, so they came to participate in this Martial Immortal Ceremony.

As for Han Jiangche, this was an unexpected surprise.

Zhang Mo and Zhang Xian's targets were only Lin Daoyuan and Yue'e; they did not include the Youyu Gate in their plan.

Han Jiangche practically offered himself up.

"My lord, a large number of people have gathered outside the formation. Shouldn't we retreat?" Duan Qiankun approached Zhang Mo and bowed as he asked.

Zhang Mo suppressed his smile and looked towards the outside of the formation. His eyes were stained red with blood, and his gaze pierced through layers of blood-red mist to see the people outside the formation.

Just then, Yunxiao's spiritual energy surged wildly, unleashing his late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivation. The spiritual energy within dozens of feet around him flowed into the sword like rivers flowing into the sea, and a yellow sword aura more than ten feet long shot into the sky, like a giant blade cleaving the heavens.

The piercing shriek of the sword energy tearing through the air was so intense it made people's eardrums ache. Wherever it passed, space cracked inch by inch like a shattered mirror, with black fissures spreading outwards.

Boom~~
The sword energy struck the Blood Spider Trapping Immortal Formation, and the crimson mist surged, revealing the spider web hidden within it. The enormous spider phantom flickered and swayed, as if it might disappear at any moment.

The powerful shockwave swept around like a hurricane, leaving the surrounding area for more than ten miles in ruins.

Everyone outside the formation gasped at the sight, and many were so frightened by the sword strike that they fled in panic.

Yang Zhengshan was once again amazed by the power of Yunxiao's swordsmanship when he saw Yunxiao's sword energy again.

Inside the Blood Spider Trapping Immortal Formation, Zhang Mo saw Yunxiao's sword strike, and his pupils constricted slightly.

"Hehe, this Sea of ​​Spiritual Beauty truly produces a great many talented people!"

Although Yunxiao's sword strike did not break the Blood Spider Immortal Trapping Formation, it did cause considerable damage to it. The blood mist became much thinner, the spider phantom became dim and uncertain, and even the thin lines seemed to be on the verge of collapse.

"retreat!"

Zhang Mo chuckled and waved for everyone to retreat.

Their main target this time was martial artists at the Divine Soul Realm, but if they could take the opportunity to capture a few Foundation Establishment cultivators, they wouldn't mind wasting a little more time.

However, Yunxiao outside the formation was clearly not someone to be trifled with.

Even though his Devouring Spirit Body had reached the Great Perfection stage and could withstand attacks from a Divine Soul Realm martial artist, he was still extremely wary of a sword cultivator like Yunxiao.

Therefore, to avoid any unforeseen complications, he decided to retreat as soon as possible.

The ghost soldiers and blood puppets in the square efficiently cleaned up the battlefield. The Heavenly Gang stage warriors were of little use to them; they only needed to extract their essence and blood.

Golden Body Realm warriors can refine blood puppets regardless of whether they are dead or alive. Although these blood puppets can only serve as cannon fodder for Zhang Mo, Zhang Mo still adheres to the principle of not wasting anything and takes them with him if he can.

As for the Divine Soul Realm warriors, Zhang Xian and Yang Shenwu are already Zhang Mo's ghost soldiers, so there's no need to deal with them. Lin Daoyuan, Yue'e, and Han Jiangche are all still alive, and they want to take these three away alive.

Duan Qiankun took out three ice coffins, threw Lin Daoyuan and the other two into them, and then put the coffins into his storage bag.

The Spirit Sealing Coffin can seal not only ghosts and spirits, but also living beings. Whether they are immortal cultivators or martial artists, they can be temporarily sealed in the Spirit Sealing Coffin and then put into a storage bag to be taken away.

In a short while, they had cleaned up the square, collected all the useful items, and left only severed limbs.

The blood puppets also had their own coffins. One by one, they jumped into the coffins and were then put into Duan Qiankun's storage bag.

"Sir, we can evacuate now!"

Duan Qiankun said.

The scene, which had been bustling with activity, was now reduced to just Zhang Mo and Duan Qiankun; everyone else had vanished.

Even Zhang Xian and Yang Shenwu were put into the spirit-sealing coffin.

The blood mist in the air surged again, and the spider phantom was almost invisible.

The Blood Spider Trapping Immortal Formation was once again subjected to fierce attacks and was on the verge of being violently breached.

"Let's go!"

With a mocking smile, Zhang Mo took out a talisman, ignited it with his magic power, and the two figures disappeared from the spot in the next moment.

Outside the formation, Yang Zhengshan suddenly felt a familiar fluctuation, and he frowned as he looked into the formation.

Although the blood mist has thinned considerably, it is still enough to block his vision. Moreover, this blood mist can also block his spiritual sense, preventing him from using his spiritual sense to investigate the situation inside the formation.

Seeing him frown, Xuanzhen asked, "What's wrong?"

“The people inside the formation have left! They left using teleportation talismans!” Yang Zhengshan said with certainty.

He was extremely familiar with teleportation talismans, not only because teleportation techniques involved the Dao of the Void, but also because he could draw teleportation talismans.

Xuanzhen frowned slightly. "They've left already? How are the people inside?" "We'll find out soon enough!"

Yang Zhengshan said in a calm tone.

Just as the two were talking, Yunxiao struck the Blood Spider Trapping Immortal Array with his sword again. With a loud bang, the earth shook, blood mist spread, and the Net Array shattered.

The Palace Square, which had been closed for most of the day, was once again revealed to the world.

Of course, after everyone saw what was happening in the square, their expressions became increasingly grim.

The square was filled with pale-faced corpses, devoid of any color.

Yang Zhengshan squinted at her, "Zhang Mo, the Blood Pool Deacon!"

This is clearly a method used by the Yin Soul Division of the Wuchang Ghost Sect: extracting human essence and blood to create blood puppets.

Moreover, only Zhang Mo around the Yunxiao Mountains would do something like this.

“Lin Daoyuan and Yue’e are not here!” Xuanzhen said.

"Hmm, the Sea of ​​Spiritual Beauty is about to change!" Yang Zhengshan sighed softly.

The two did not approach, but simply watched from a distance.

Yunxiao, Liuyue, and the others went forward to check, and then returned with grim faces.

"What should we do?" Liu Yue asked in a panic.

She could already foresee how the situation would develop.

Without a Divine Soul Realm warrior to guard it, the Sea of ​​Spiritual Beauty is like a fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered, and will soon attract the covetous eyes of various forces.

The three sects of Lingxiu are about to face an unpredictable crisis.

Yunxiao took a deep breath. "The elders are probably already dead. Now we should discuss how to protect ourselves!"

His gaze fell on Yang Zhengshan, who understood his meaning and shook his head slightly, "Senior should understand that my Yang family can only protect itself and cannot take care of others."

He could maintain the Yang family's position in the Lingxiu Sea by leveraging the power of Wanbaohang, but he could not help the three sects of Lingxiu defend against other invading enemies.

The other forces are manageable, but the most troublesome is actually the Netherworld Sect.

The Netherworld Sect has several martial artists at the Divine Soul Realm.

Among the many forces near the Cloud Mountain Range, besides White Cloud Immortal City and Azure Feather Mountain, the most powerful is the Netherworld Prison Sect.

Among the various forces, the Netherworld Sect's strength is somewhat mediocre.

With the White Cloud Immortal City under the jurisdiction of True Monarch White Cloud and the Azure Feather Mountain possessing a transformed great demon, the Netherworld Prison Sect, despite having several Divine Soul Realm warriors, is far from being comparable to these two forces.

For forces that only possess Foundation Establishment cultivators, the Netherworld Sect is an existence so powerful that it is not to be trifled with.

Yang Zhengshan borrowed Wanbaohang's prestige, but he could not borrow Wanbaohang's power.

At most, he could get others to refrain from attacking the Yang family out of respect for Wanbaohang.

Yunxiao naturally understood Yang Zhengshan's meaning. "Alright, I'd better go back to the sect and discuss it with the sect leader first!"

Having said that, he didn't linger any longer and flew towards the Xuanqing Sect with Yunxi.

Liu Yue did not leave, but continued to look at Yang Zhengshan, "Senior, would you like to return to the sect together?"

Yang Zhengshan was speechless for a moment.

Well, he's also a guest elder of the Illusion Moon Sect, so it's really hard to refuse.

Unlike the Xuanqing Sect, the Illusion Moon Sect only had a personal relationship with Yunxiao, which did not involve any relationship or interests between the two factions.

But the Illusion Moon Sect is different. He is not only a guest elder of the Illusion Moon Sect, but the Yang family also has a deep connection of interests with the Illusion Moon Sect.

"I'll go to the Illusion Moon Sect first. You go to Yangjia Town. I'll trouble you to stay here and oversee things for the time being!"

The situation in the Sea of ​​Spiritual Beauty is about to descend into chaos, and Yangjia Town cannot afford to be complacent. It would be just right to have Xuanzhen oversee things.

"I understand!"

Xuanzhen responded and flew towards Yangjia Town.

Yang Zhengshan, Liu Yue, and Yueming then traveled to the Illusion Moon Sect by flying boat.

When they arrived at the Illusion Moon Sect, the sect was already in a state of chaos.

The disappearance of Yue'e, with her fate unknown, is tantamount to the loss of the pillar of the Illusion Moon Sect. Not to mention ordinary disciples, even the sect leader Yue Qing is filled with panic.

Inside the Mirror Abyss Pavilion.

Yueqing was no longer as calm and leisurely as before; she paced back and forth in the hall, her whole being restless.

"Report! Elder Yang, Elder Liu and Elder Mingyue have returned!" a disciple reported from outside the hall.

"Please come in quickly!" Yue Qing's expression changed, and she said hurriedly.

A moment later, Yang Zhengshan and the other two arrived at the hall. "Greetings, Sect Master!"

"Elder Yang, the Supreme Elder, she..."

In fact, Yueqing already knew the answer. The moment the great formation was broken, Liuyue used a communication talisman to inform her of the situation of the Wuxiang Sect.

But when she saw Yang Zhengshan, she couldn't help but ask again, as if Yang Zhengshan was her last lifeline.

Yang Zhengshan looked at the panicked Yue Qing and comforted her, "Sect Master, don't worry. The Supreme Elder has only disappeared; she is not dead!"

He could guess Yue'e's situation, after all, he was quite familiar with the way the Yin Soul Bureau operated.

If nothing unexpected happens, Lin Daoyuan and Yue'e will most likely be refined into Yin soldiers by Zhang Mo, just like Xuanzhen did back then.

If Lin Daoyuan and Yue'e are willing to compromise, they can continue to live. But if they refuse to yield, they may have their consciousness erased by Zhang Mo and become puppets without self-awareness.

Upon hearing this, Yueqing calmed down considerably from her panic.

"What suggestions does Elder Yang have?"

Yang Zhengshan thought for a moment and said, "Consolidate our forces and guard the mountain gate."

At this point, there wasn't much of a good solution. The only option was to give up any benefits that could be sacrificed in order to ensure that the sect was not breached.

Yue Qing nodded slightly, "I understand!"

"Yueming, go and summon all the disciples who are away!"

"Liu Yue, I'm entrusting the sect's grand formation to you."

Yueming and Liuyue immediately accepted the order and left.

Yueqing then looked at Yang Zhengshan, "I wonder if Elder Yang can stay in the sect for a while!"

"can!"

Yang Zhengshan did not refuse, nor was there any need for him to refuse.

What good is it for him to be stationed at the Illusion Moon Sect? Does he think he can risk his life for the sect?
If the situation turns unfavorable, he will leave when the time is right.

Of course, he will help with anything he can handle.
