Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather.

Chapter 926 Taking Over the Wuxiang Sect

The city gates opened, and three thousand Imperial Guards entered the city, marching in orderly steps to take over the city's defense and security.

Chu Lingxiao really wanted to ask about the situation of the soldiers in front of her, but since she wasn't familiar with Song Dashan, she was too embarrassed to ask any further questions.

"Elder Chu, why don't we find a place to have a cup of tea? I still have many things I'd like to ask you!"

Song Dashan said to Chu Lingxiao.

"Alright, let's go to the Three Saints Tower in the city!" Chu Lingxiao said.

"The Three Saints Pagoda?" Song Dashan asked in confusion.

"The Three Saints Pagoda is a tall pagoda built by the Wuxiang Sect a thousand years ago for three eminent monks. Now, the Three Saints Pagoda is the government office that manages the city!" Chu Lingxiao explained.

Song Dashan suddenly realized, and the two walked into the city side by side. The tall Yunhu horse followed behind Song Dashan, seemingly looking at everything in the city with great curiosity.

Chu Lingxiao also glanced at Yun Huju with some curiosity.

"This Cloud Tiger Steed seems to be extraordinary!"

Song Dashan smiled honestly, "Dahu has already started cultivating, and it may not be long before he becomes a demon beast."

"Monster beasts!" Chu Lingxiao exclaimed in surprise. "Does the Yang family have many monster beasts?"

"Uh, well, I'm afraid I can't tell you!" Song Dashan said.

There is currently only one demon beast in the Spirit Source Land, namely the Azure Wolf King, but there are many strange beasts cultivating the "Primordial Transformation Technique" in the Spirit Source Land.

Under the guidance of the Beast Taming Hall, various exotic beasts, such as the Gale Wolf, Golden Feather Fire Crow, Cloud Tiger Steed, and Crimson Cloud Horse, are all cultivating the "Primordial Transformation True Technique".

The main task of the Beast Taming Hall now is to teach these exotic beasts the basic knowledge of cultivation, select the more intelligent beasts, and then further guide them in their cultivation.

The Beast Taming Hall now has seven or eight monster training classes.

However, becoming a monster is not an easy thing. Without the support of resources, a beast can only rely on its bloodline and talent to become a monster.

Song Dashan's Cloud Tiger Steed seems to have good aptitude. It is quite intelligent, understands human nature, and is good at learning. Although it has not yet become a demon beast, it has already entered the first stage of the cultivation of the "Primordial Transformation Technique".

Upon hearing this, Chu Lingxiao stopped asking questions and instead began to explain the situation inside the city to Song Dashan.

"After the incident at the Wuxiang Sect, Wuxiang City fell into chaos. Although we have tried our best to maintain order, due to insufficient manpower, we have not been able to do a good job in many areas!"

"If you want to restore order to the Wuxiang Sect, it may take some effort!"

"There are many martial arts families in the city, and most of these families have intricate connections with the Wuxiang Sect. The destruction of the Wuxiang Sect had a great impact on them, and they may still have some gratitude towards the Wuxiang Sect!"

"There may be quite a few people who want to rebuild the Wuxiang Sect!"

Chu Lingxiao looked at Song Dashan after saying this.

Song Dashan wasn't stupid; he understood what he meant.

Since we want to rebuild the Wuxiang Sect, we must naturally take back everything from the Wuxiang Sect.

But now that the Yang family has taken over everything of the Wuxiang Sect, those who want to rebuild the Wuxiang Sect will inevitably regard the Yang family as their enemy.

"I will act with caution!" Song Dashan said.

Just as the two were talking, a sudden commotion arose not far away.

"Wuxiang City belongs only to the Wuxiang Sect. Drive them out of the city!"

"Drive them out of the city!"

"Kill them! Kill them!"

……

On a street not far away, dozens of martial artists suddenly attacked a group of soldiers who had just entered the city to maintain order.

The once quiet street suddenly became chaotic.

"I forgot to tell you, there are still many disciples of the Wuxiang Sect in the city, and they might be hostile towards you!" Chu Lingxiao said with a frown.

The Yang family is not from the Xuanqing Sect. The Xuanqing Sect has a very high reputation in the Lingxiu Sea. When the Wuxiang Sect encountered a calamity, the Xuanqing Sect took over Wuxiang City. Although this would make the disciples of the Wuxiang Sect feel dissatisfied, it would not attract attacks from the disciples of the Wuxiang Sect.

But the Yang family was not an option; their prestige was insufficient to deter the remnants of the Wuxiang Sect.

Moreover, the Yang family was just an aristocratic family before, and the Wuxiang Sect, as one of the three major sects, would naturally look down on an aristocratic family like the Yang family.

"It's nothing, Elder Chu, please wait a moment!"

Song Dashan leaped onto the Cloud Tiger Steed and flew directly into the sky.

He looked down into the city and found that there was a lot of unrest.

In reality, most of the people in the city were staying obediently at home and dared not go out. Those who dared to go out were mostly people of some status and position.

"Issue my military order: seal off the entire city! Anyone who dares to rebel will be executed on the spot!"

A booming voice echoed like rolling thunder above Wuxiang City, its majestic aura spreading and enveloping the city.

"Sea the entire city off!"

"Anyone who dares to cause trouble will be killed on the spot!"

"kill!"

The soldiers shouted, and shouts of battle arose everywhere, making the turmoil in the city even more severe.

"They're trying to kill us! Fight them!"

"Kill!"

The remnants of the Wuxiang Sect also seemed to have become enraged, and they took to the streets to fight against the soldiers of the Yujing Guard.

In a short time, the entire Wuxiang City seemed to have turned into a battlefield of slaughter, with more and more battles breaking out and the situation becoming increasingly chaotic.

Upon seeing this, Chu Lingxiao quickly flew to Song Dashan's side and said, "Guest Elder Song, isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

Many of the people here are disciples of the Wuxiang Sect. The three major sects are all closely connected. After the Wuxiang Sect was destroyed, the Xuanqing Sect should at least take care of the remaining disciples of the Wuxiang Sect.

Looking down, Song Dashan said calmly, "The patriarch has ordered that if there is any chaos, a massacre will be launched!"

"What do you mean?" Chu Lingxiao frowned even more.

Song Dashan glanced at her. "The Wuxiang Sect no longer exists in the Lingxiu Sea. The disciples of the Wuxiang Sect are no longer of any use. They will only bring chaos to the Lingxiu Sea!"

"These are turbulent times; we cannot tolerate such petty scoundrels causing trouble!"

Song Dashan was also a veteran general. Although he was somewhat rigid and honest, decades of experience in leading troops had honed him into a mature commander.

The destruction of the Wuxiang Sect is already a foregone conclusion. Now, apart from some remaining disciples of the Wuxiang Sect, no one is thinking about rebuilding the Wuxiang Sect.

The Yang family didn't have the time or energy to appease these people, nor would they waste their time and energy getting entangled with them.

The Netherworld Sect is already assembling a large army. With a formidable enemy at hand, it is only natural to act swiftly and decisively.

It is better to kill by mistake than to let go!
After understanding all this, Chu Lingxiao sighed softly and ultimately remained silent, simply watching the carnage below.

The shouts of killing continued, and blood had already stained the long street red.

Amidst the flashing swords and clashing blades, there was nothing but brutal slaughter.

The remaining disciples of the Wuxiang Sect still possess considerable strength, and Wuxiang City also boasts many powerful families. Their rebellious spirit is high, and they can be said to be able to rally a large following with a single call.

Unfortunately, they were facing the well-trained and well-equipped Yujing Guard.

Chu Lingxiao stared intently at a ten-person squad below.

Two spearmen, four swordsmen and shieldmen, and four archers.

The ten-man squad advanced along the street, routing the more than thirty martial artists and inflicting heavy casualties.

Both sides were roughly equal in cultivation level, both being innate martial artists, and most of them had the cultivation level of the Earthly Fiend stage. However, when facing three times the number of enemies, the ten-person team became more and more courageous in battle.

"Archer!"

She soon discovered one of the reasons why the Jade Capital Guard was so powerful.

Four archers stood high up, blocking off the airspace. Anyone who dared to fly into the sky would be attacked by the four archers. Meanwhile, the group of innate martial artists were entangled with sword and shield soldiers and spearmen on the ground.

Despite having a numerical advantage, they were suppressed by four archers and could only huddle together in a passive defense.

The complex environment within the city did not limit the archers' performance; on the contrary, it increased their ability to protect themselves.

Chu Lingxiao watched as an archer, caught off guard, used a building to dodge the attack, and then delivered a fatal arrow to the enemy's throat.

The chaos lasted for more than half an hour before it ended. When the chaos subsided, the streets of the city were littered with corpses lying in disarray.

Song Dashan merely glanced at the entire city before looking away.

"Elder Chu, please!"

He turned around and extended another invitation to Chu Lingxiao.

"please!"

Chu Lingxiao also composed himself and flew towards the Three Saints Pagoda with Song Dashan.

……

The chaos in Wuxiang City was to be expected, as was the chaos within Wuxiang Sect.

Song Dashan was in charge of taking over Wuxiang City, while Yang Zhengshan personally took over Wuxiang Sect.

Yang Zhengshan also led three thousand Jade Capital Guards to the Wuxiang Sect in a grand procession.

He took over the Wuxiang Sect from Yunxi. The handover process went very smoothly at first. Yunxi readily took away the disciples of the Xuanqing Sect and allowed the Yujing Guard to be stationed in the Wuxiang Sect.

However, when Yunxi left with the disciples of Xuanqing Sect, the remaining disciples of Wuxiang Sect started making a fuss.

To this, Yang Zhengshan had only one word: 'Kill'.

Leave no one alive; kill everyone who could be killed.

The killings were so brutal that heads rolled and blood flowed like rivers.

This caused the Wuxiang Sect to completely fade into the dust of history.

Before the main hall, Yang Zhengshan stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the pagodas and halls of the Wuxiang Sect.

"Dad, everything's been cleaned up!" Yang Minghao said as he came up behind him.

"Hmm!" Yang Zhengshan said calmly.

It's just murder, nothing more.

Yang Minghao didn't take the disciples of the Wuxiang Sect to heart. He looked around at the pagodas and said with some displeasure, "These pagodas are really an eyesore!"

"Let's keep them for now; these pagodas are the foundation of the protective array!" Yang Zhengshan said.

The Wuxiang Sect's protective formation is called the Nine Palaces Trapping Dragon Formation. It uses nine Buddhist pagodas as its base and utilizes the power of the five elements to form a cyclical defensive barrier. It also possesses the power to trap and annihilate enemies.

This grand formation should be classified as a mid-grade second-tier formation. However, how much power it still possesses depends on whether Yang Shenwu and Zhang Xian have damaged its core.

"Master, I've already checked. The great formation is fairly intact, only a few places need repair!" Ning Yunfei flew over and landed in front of Yang Zhengshan to report.

Yang Zhengshan nodded slightly. "Has the treasure vault been opened?"

"It's already open, but it's completely empty inside!" Ning Yun said, somewhat annoyed.

"Hehe, the result was as expected!" Yang Zhengshan chuckled.

Whether it's Zhang Mo, Yang Shenwu, or Zhang Xian, since they chose to kill many martial arts experts in the Wuxiang Sect, they were naturally prepared to leave. They would definitely try their best to take away anything worth taking with them.

Ning Yun then smiled and said, "But I've discovered a treasure trove!"

"A treasure land? What treasure land?" Yang Zhengshan asked in surprise.

"Master, come with me!"

Ning Yun led Yang Zhengshan and Yang Minghao towards the rear of the Wuxiang Sect.

Soon they arrived at a forest of spirit fruits. The lush forest was full of life, and the warm air was not tainted by the smell of blood.

"Master, look!"

Ning Yun pointed to several large trees in the center of the woods, but Yang Zhengshan had already noticed them even before she pointed them out.

"This is a Five Elements Fruit Tree!"

Yang Zhengshan walked around the six big trees.

"I don't know, but this should be a third-tier spirit fruit tree!" Ning Yun said.

Yang Zhengshan's eyes grew brighter and brighter. "That's right, this is the third-tier spiritual plant, the Five Elements Fruit Tree!"

The Five Elements Spirit Tree is an extremely rare third-tier spirit tree that can only grow in specific locations where the five elements of spiritual energy are abundant and balanced. It can automatically gather and harmonize the surrounding five elements of spiritual energy, making the spiritual energy in its growing environment more concentrated and balanced. This greatly helps cultivators who practice the five elements techniques, accelerating their cultivation progress and enhancing their magical power.

The fruits, wood, branches, and leaves of the Five Elements Spirit Tree are all precious materials for refining high-grade pills and magical artifacts. Pills refined from it have many miraculous effects, such as improving cultivation, healing injuries, and enhancing physical constitution, while magical artifacts refined from it often contain the power of the five elements, making them powerful and highly stable.

Most importantly, the Five Elements Spiritual Fruit has the effect of assisting in the formation of the Golden Core, which can increase the success rate of the formation of the Golden Core. It is a Golden Core spiritual item that Foundation Establishment cultivators dream of.

Thinking of the Five Elements Spirit Fruit, Yang Zhengshan felt a surge of excitement.

However, his enthusiasm quickly dissipated as he remembered how rare the Five Elements Spirit Fruit was.

The Five Elements Fruit Tree can indeed produce Five Elements Spiritual Fruits, but the conditions for it to produce them are extremely demanding.

The Five Elements Fruit Tree ripens once every hundred years, but it can only produce single-attribute spiritual fruits. Although single-attribute spiritual fruits are also third-tier spiritual fruits, they do not have the effect of harmonizing the five elements.

To produce the Five Elements Spiritual Fruit, it takes at least a thousand years, and the Five Elements Fruit Tree must grow in a place where the Five Elements spiritual energy is abundant and balanced.

Only in such an environment can the Five Elements Fruit Tree possibly produce the Five Elements Spiritual Fruit.

Clearly, this place does not conform to the balance of the five elements. It is close to the Sea of ​​Spiritual Beauty, where the water attribute spiritual energy is the most concentrated. Therefore, the water attribute of these six five-element fruit trees is also the most concentrated, and the fruits they bear should mostly be of the water attribute.

Yang Zhengshan stroked his beard and thought for a moment. He thought that the Spirit Source Land should be able to find a treasure land with a balance of the five elements, but even if it were transplanted to the Spirit Source Land, it would take a thousand years to bear the five elemental spiritual fruits.

He certainly can't wait a thousand years.

However, these Five Elements Fruit Trees are rare Tier 3 spiritual plants, and there are also many Tier 2 spiritual plants here. Being able to obtain so many spiritual plants is quite a rewarding harvest.
