Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather.

Chapter 980 Reunion with Lin Daoyuan and Yue'e
"Are you willing to give me this opportunity?" Yunxiao looked at Yang Zhengshan.

Yang Zhengshan chuckled and said, "I want to form a true core, I don't care about this fake one!"

"Hahaha~~~" Yunxiao laughed loudly, his eyes becoming increasingly determined.

He had to seize this opportunity, even if it meant risking his life.

Kota stood behind him, his face full of envy, but he was not jealous, because he knew he definitely had no chance, since his current cultivation level was not high enough to make him covet the Golden Core realm.

If his cultivation had reached the late Foundation Establishment stage, he certainly wouldn't have given up this opportunity.

The chaotic battle around them continued, and everyone's attention was focused on the Nine Cauldrons Divine Pill, so no one noticed Yang Zhengshan's side.

Yang Zhengshan glanced across the battlefield.

"Go and steal the divine pill. Once you get it, don't hesitate, swallow it immediately!"

"We'll do our best to hold off those enemies for you!"

“Okay!” Yunxiao replied.

The next moment, he transformed into a streak of light and rushed straight into the battlefield.

The condensed sword light burst forth, attacking the enemy with almost all its might.

The battlefield is too chaotic, and many people have already been injured or killed. Now everyone's goal is the divine pill, and there is no room for reconciliation between them.

Therefore, people are always facing a situation where they are surrounded by enemies.

"Follow!"

Yang Zhengshan threw down a sentence and then went into berserk mode.

He held a large number of talismans in both hands. As his magic power surged, scorching flames suddenly erupted, wave after wave, as dense as firecrackers, but with much greater power. Even though they were only low-grade second-tier talismans, they still possessed the full power of an early Foundation Establishment stage cultivator.

At this moment, the talismans in Yang Zhengshan's hands were all second-tier mid-grade and high-grade fire attribute talismans prepared for him by Cui Yang.

"Come on, come on! Let me blow you all up!"

As Yang Zhengshan rapidly released talismans, he muttered frantically to himself.

"I'll kill you all, and see if you dare to steal again!"

He scattered the talismans in his hand as if they were free scraps of paper.

No matter who was blocking his way, as long as they weren't one of his own, they were an enemy. As soon as he encountered or saw them, Yang Zhengshan would throw a talisman at them.

As for whether there will be any accidental injury!
It was a joke; all sorts of colorful lights exploded in the air, and at this point, it was impossible to tell which way was which.

Some people are struck by various spells, but they don't know who is attacking them.

Some people unleashed a frenzied barrage of attacks, not even knowing who they were attacking.

Of course, most people are casting protective spells and using protective magical artifacts on themselves in order to block attacks from all directions.

Yang Zhengshan was no exception. The Divine Wood Cauldron had been activated and was hovering above his head, with several defensive talismans faintly appearing on his robe.

Behind him were Kota and Hong Fuxiu. Kota's six Vajra arms formed a wall behind him, while Hong Fuxiu's red silk fluttered, constantly blocking the incoming spells.

The three of them moved as one, appearing to be able to advance and retreat with ease.

The main problem was that Yang Zhengshan's talismans were too disgusting. He would just throw a stack of talismans at people, and I don't know how many people were blown away.

However, Yang Zhengshan soon encountered resistance. Just as they approached the Nine Cauldrons Divine Pill, a figure suddenly blocked their way.

"Duan Qiankun of the Impermanent Ghost Sect, please step aside, Fellow Daoist Yang!"

Duan Qiankun stood in front of Yang Zhengshan and said loudly.

Yang Zhengshan abruptly stopped what he was doing, his gaze sharp as he looked at Duan Qiankun. "You know me?"

"I had long heard of Fellow Daoist Yang's name back in the Sea of ​​Spiritual Beauty!" Duan Qiankun's face was somewhat pale, but his eyes were exceptionally bright.

Yang Zhengshan's face was gloomy and uncertain. He had a very bad impression of Duan Qiankun and Zhang Mo.

Actually, these two people never had any conflict with him.

The conflict between Xuanzhen and the Wuchang Ghost Sect stemmed from Mo Xuanyu. After killing Mo Xuanyu, Xuanzhen's obsession with the Wuchang Ghost Sect disappeared.

Then there was Zhang Mo's attack on Lianxin Valley, which caused the Yang family considerable losses to their businesses there, but those losses weren't enough to make Yang Zhengshan furious.

Finally, there's what Zhang Mo did at the Wuxiang Sect. Because of this, the Lingxiu Sea suffered heavy losses, and Yang Mingcheng was seriously injured.

However, the Yang family used this opportunity to become one of the three major sects of the Lingxiu Sea.

There are grudges and resentments, but the grudges and resentments are not that deep.

Yang Mingcheng's serious injuries were not fatal, and he has already recovered.

As for the harm Zhang Mo caused to the Sea of ​​Spiritual Beauty, to be honest, Yang Zhengshan didn't care. Neither Lin Daoyuan nor Yue'e had a deep relationship with him.

Therefore, although Yang Zhengshan disliked Zhang Mo, he was not angry about what Zhang Mo did.

"What if I don't?"

Yang Zhengshan stopped and stared intently at Duan Qiankun.

Duan Qiankun grinned and said, "Then don't blame me for not showing Fellow Daoist Yang any mercy!"

"Heh, what kind of relationship do we have?" Yang Zhengshan found it somewhat laughable.

Ahead, Zhang Mo is vying for the Nine Cauldrons Divine Pill. He has many opponents, including Yun Ge, Tianye Old Ghost, and several powerful demons.

There was an underlying implication that Zhang Mo was fighting against a large group of enemies.

As long as Zhang Mo still has a few powerful Yin soldiers in his hands.

Yang Zhengshan accurately spotted Yang Shenwu and Zhang Xian among them.

Yang Shenwu and Zhang Xian are both martial artists at the Divine Soul Realm. With their help, Zhang Mo naturally surpasses all others.

"Since that's the case, then there's nothing more to say!"

Duan Qiankun's expression darkened, and with a flick of his wide black robe, two icy coffins shot out.

The coffin was opened, revealing two figures familiar to Yang Zhengshan.

Seeing the two figures, Yang Zhengshan's face also darkened.

Lin Daoyuan and Yue'e!

They were indeed transformed into ghost soldiers by the Impermanent Ghost Sect, but it's unknown whether they still possess self-awareness.

"kill!"

Duan Qiankun gave a cold command, and in an instant Lin Daoyuan and Yue'e rushed towards Yang Zhengshan's position.

The countless sword beams transformed into a torrential rain of pear blossoms, each "petal" adorned with tiny vortexes of spiritual energy, forming a storm of sword intent.

A bright moon floated into the sky, and countless stars were reflected in the jade plate, then a silvery blade of energy poured down.

Yang Zhengshan thought to himself, "This is troublesome!"

Regardless of whether Lin Daoyuan and Yue'e have any self-awareness, the two of them are showing no mercy in their current attack.

"Korta!"

He called out. The next instant, Kota's tall figure appeared before him.

"Primordial Vajra Realm!"

With all six arms moving simultaneously, a crimson flame was added to Kota's body. A huge fire wheel emerged from Kota's back and merged with the six-armed Vajra. Golden light and blazing fire intertwined, forming a barrier in front of Yang Zhengshan.

Despite the barrage of sword beams and air blades, the barrier remained completely unmoved.

This is a defensive spell jointly cast by Kota and Hong Fuxiu. Its defensive strength is comparable to that of a top-grade defensive magic weapon.

"Seale the heavens and sever the earth!"

"Divine Crow Suppresses Soul!"

The cawing ravens flew out, and the jet-black Soul-Suppressing Lock and God-Locking Chain spread out.

A fierce glint flashed in Yang Zhengshan's eyes, and his hand seals changed once more, "Thunderstorm, Yi Wood Divine Thunder!"

The Azure Lightning Sword hovered in front of him, and as Yang Zhengshan focused his mind, it instantly erupted with pure white lightning.

A bright, gleaming Azure Lightning Pearl leaped from the Azure Wood Purple Lightning Sword, carrying immense power, and flew past Kou Ta, heading directly towards Duan Qiankun.

Duan Qiankun was not very strong, but he controlled Lin Daoyuan and Yue'e, two Yin soldiers.

Lin Daoyuan and Yue'e's strength seemed to have been weakened by becoming ghost soldiers, but Yang Zhengshan still dared not be careless in the slightest.

Facing a powerful expert at the Divine Soul Realm, Yang Zhengshan is now confident of defeating him.

However, facing two experts at the Divine Soul Realm, and in such a complex environment, Yang Zhengshan had no choice but to unleash his full power.

Dozens of soul crows circled around, occasionally being shattered by incoming spells, but they would quickly reform.

They squawked, their cries were shrill and piercing, yet they also possessed a strange quality that made one feel drowsy.

Lin Daoyuan and Yue'e transformed into ghost soldiers, but they did not die; their souls were merely suppressed by the Blood Jade Restriction.

Simply put, their independent consciousness was suppressed by the Blood Jade Restriction, turning them into puppets who could only obey orders.

Therefore, their strength appears to be far less than before.

The reason Zhang Mo put Lin Daoyuan and Yue'e under Duan Qiankun's control was because Lin Daoyuan and Yue'e needed the suppression of the Blood Jade Restriction.

Yang Shenwu and Zhang Xian, who were under Zhang Mo's command, were certainly not as strong as Lin Daoyuan and Yue'e, but they were willing to become ghost soldiers. Zhang Mo only needed to give them an order to fight.

Lin Daoyuan and Yue'e never yielded. To make them fight, one must first suppress their independent will and use them as puppets.

The Yi Wood Divine Lightning hurtled straight towards Duan Qiankun. Duan Qiankun's expression changed slightly as he dodged and evaded it while activating his defensive magic weapon to prepare for defense.

He focused his mind on dealing with the Yi Wood Divine Thunder, and consequently relaxed his suppression of Lin Daoyuan and Yue'e's souls.

Instantly, Lin Daoyuan and Yue'e, who were still attacking, paused, and a glimmer of light appeared in their numb eyes.

"Damn it!"

Lin Daoyuan let out a roar like a wild beast.

However, all he could do was roar; he had not yet regained control of his body.

Yue'e noticed Yang Zhengshan immediately, and stared at him blankly.

Yang Zhengshan ignored their changes and, in the instant they paused, manipulated the Soul-Suppressing Lock and God-Locking Chain to wrap around their bodies.

With the Soul-Suppressing Lock and God-Locking Chain wrapped around their bodies, Yang Zhengshan gritted his teeth and dragged their souls out of their bodies.

"Seniors, do not resist! Otherwise, I cannot save you!"

He said in a deep voice.

Lin Daoyuan and Yue'e stared blankly at Yang Zhengshan. They didn't understand the situation at all, but they did understand one thing: they had seen Yang Zhengshan.

Whether Yang Zhengshan could save them or not, they didn't know, but this was their best chance to break free from the control of the Impermanent Ghost Sect.

In fact, Yang Zhengshan didn't know if he could save them. Although he had helped Xuanzhen break the Blood Jade restriction, that was when he controlled the Blood Jade.

He has not yet obtained Zhang Mo's Blood Jade, nor can he use it to remove the Blood Jade restriction within their consciousness seas.

Therefore, he is now trying anything as a last resort.

Of course, his main goal was to get rid of Lin Daoyuan and Yue'e, these two troublesome individuals.

Whether we kill them or save them, it will solve the immediate problem.

Neither Lin Daoyuan nor Yue'e resisted the Soul-Suppressing Lock's pull, allowing it to drag their souls out of their sea of ​​consciousness.

Without the protection of the body, the soul is like a candle flickering in the wind, easily damaged by even the slightest disturbance.

However, the Soul-Suppressing Lock and God-Locking Chain have now become a barrier protecting the souls of the two, and the shockwaves of magical power have not harmed their souls.

Their souls were separated, but their bodies remained puppets.

Yang Zhengshan gritted his teeth and controlled the two soul crows to rush into the two men's sea of ​​consciousness, then forcibly detonated the blood jade restriction in their sea of ​​consciousness.

The moment the Blood Jade Restriction exploded, a vast surge of bloodthirsty energy erupted from the seas of consciousness of the two.

If their souls were still here, this bloodthirsty aura would be enough to shatter their souls.

However, since their souls are not currently within their sea of ​​consciousness, the impact of the blood-fiend energy cannot harm their souls.

Of course, this did not mean that the two were out of danger. The bloodthirsty energy raged in their sea of ​​consciousness, shattering it into pieces.

The sea of ​​consciousness is the foundation upon which the soul dwells, and the unshakeable cornerstone of immortal cultivation.

Cultivating techniques and comprehending the Great Dao both require the sea of ​​consciousness. Whether it is the precise control when inhaling and exhaling spiritual energy or the focused meditation when comprehending profound techniques, the sea of ​​consciousness must be as solid as a rock.

The profound mysteries of magical texts require one's divine sense to dissect the surface of the words like a sharp blade; the patterns of the rules of heaven and earth require one's soul to dive into them like a swimming fish. If the sea of ​​consciousness is disturbed, it is like the pages of a book being blown about by a gale. Even with the most powerful methods, it is difficult to even glimpse a fraction of what is there.

Therefore, many cultivation methods for immortals contain the saying, "Spiritual power can be borrowed, and magical treasures can be sought, but only a firm sea of ​​consciousness is the foundation for establishing the Dao."

If the sea of ​​consciousness collapses, it is like a tall building losing its foundation, collapsing in an instant.

Fortunately, Lin Daoyuan and Yue'e's sea of ​​consciousness were both relatively strong.

The bloodthirsty aura did not cause their consciousness to collapse.

However, their consciousness was still greatly damaged, and whether it could be restored is another matter.

At this moment, Yang Zhengshan had no time to worry about anything else. After the bloodthirsty aura dissipated from their sea of ​​consciousness, he sent their souls back to their original places.

Whether they survive or not depends on their luck.

If they are lucky, they may survive; if they are unlucky, they will die.

Just as Yang Zhengshan forcibly broke the Blood Jade Restriction, the Azure Thunder Pearl, carrying immense force, slammed into Duan Qiankun.

A deafening roar of thunder erupted!

Duan Qiankun was engulfed by countless thunderbolts, but in the end he escaped the center of the storm and was thrown far away.

Yang Zhengshan glanced at Duan Qiankun, who had been thrown out, and then looked up at the sky. In that glance, he saw Yun Fan and Yun Bi being knocked away.

In this situation, it's impossible to know whether the two are alive or dead.

The battlefield above still appeared chaotic, even more chaotic than before.
