C756 Sophora County
"Senior, junior has come as promised!"
Daofather Ziyuan made a grunt of assent. "You are even more outstanding than I imagined!"
"Thank you for your praise, senior. This junior does not dare to accept it." Yang Junshan said.
Daofather Ziyuan nodded and suddenly changed the topic. "I heard that your sects have been pressing the Opening Spirit Sect very hard recently?"
Although he had been cultivating behind closed doors for the past two years, he naturally knew about the matters of Yao County. Currently, Yue Yao County had three points, and the Opening Spirit Sect still occupied three of the small towns of Yue Yao County. Meanwhile, the Liuhuo Valley and Qi Chu had secretly joined forces with the Yang Family, in an attempt to force the Yang Family to go against the Opening Spirit Sect from behind in order to expel the Opening Spirit Sect from Yue Yao County.
However, this matter had yet to be implemented. Yang Junshan still had room for manoeuvre, so he said, "What the Yang family has occupied is only the territory taken back from the demonic cultivators."
"Naturally, this Daofather has no interest in this. However, this Daofather once said that in order to preserve the legacy of the Spirit Sect, it is best to maintain the current state of affairs in Yaojiao County. Tell the Flameflow Valley and the Qichu Faction that they need to stop at the end of the day!"
Yang Junshan respectfully said, "I will inform these two sects about what you mean."
Daofather Ziyuan's expression was noncommittal. She merely said, "Let's go. We're in a hurry!"
This was the second time that Yang Junshan had come to Sangzhou. The Ancient Secret Forest to Sangzhou was equivalent to the Buried Heaven Ruins to the Jade Province, and it was an extremely unique secret location in Sangzhou's cultivation world. Along the way, Yang Junshan had asked Dao Ancestor Zi Yuan a lot of questions about the Ancient Secret Forest.
Every time it opened, there would be a large amount of heaven and earth treasures and spirit plants that appeared. Whenever the Sang Zhou cultivation world opened up at this time, there would be a large number of cultivators entering, and with their own methods, this was usually a grand occasion for the Sang Zhou cultivation world.
The formation that shrouded the forest for every three hundred years would weaken, and at that time, there would be great cultivators from the cultivation world gathering here to fight for the treasures that would be nurtured inside. This would become a grand occasion for the entire cultivation world.
The opening of the Primordial Secret Forest this time was the opportunity to weaken the Primordial Secret Forest Array, which was held once every three hundred years. As for the Patriarch of the Violet Garden, he was determined to obtain a treasure that could be born in the Primordial Secret Forest.
The location of the ancient forest was different every time. Normally, it would be seen in the seven counties of Sangzhou. This time, the forerunner of the dense forest would appear in the Huai County. The location of the ancient forest in Sangzhou had its own subtleties.
In the seven counties of Sang Prefecture, the Scholartree Manor was located in a vacuum between the Spirit Apostles Sect, the Thousand Lake Sect, and the Cyanwood Sect. This was also the most chaotic area in Sang Prefecture, and the various factions and factions here were scattered everywhere, so it could be said that the three sects, the Spirit Apostle Sect, the Thousand Lake Sect, and the Green Wood Sect, were playing a game behind the scenes. Under normal circumstances, the Thousand Lake Sect and the Green Wood Sect would work together to block the Spirit Aura Sect's onslaught.
After the descent of the foreign forces, the four major sects of Sang Prefecture retracted their power, giving priority to protecting their traditional areas of influence. This directly caused the various factions of Huai Prefecture to lose their support and be unable to resist the invasion of the foreign forces.
"In other words, during this competition in the ancient forest, we will face not only the Taoist Grandmaster from the different sects in the cultivation world, but also the Taoist Realm from the foreign powers?"
Daofather Ziyuan nodded, then glanced at her. "What? Scared?"
Yang Junshan smiled bitterly: "Of course I am afraid, according to what senior said, the one who can participate in the opening of the Ancient Secret Forest for 300 years is the Taoist Ancestor. I am only a small Heavenly Dipper, and it all depends on Senior's protection, if you are in there, any other ancestor could crush you to death with a finger!"
In fact, every time the Ancient Secret Forest opens, there would be a cultivator at the late stage of the Daoist Realm who would head out to take the risk. In the end, it might even be possible that the precious treasure inside didn't happen before the Daoist cultivators got to the first step. You are a formation master, and if this Daofather is restrained by someone, you might be one of the lucky ones!
Senior, please don't joke around with me. Although I am a rough person with formation techniques, I do not dare to admit that I am one of the lucky ones.
"Don't worry," he said with a smile. "The ancient forest is a wondrous place. Very few people return empty-handed as long as they enter and retreat."
Yang Junshan pondered for a moment, and still asked: "Senior said before, every time this ancient forest opened, the places would be different, and the treasures that could appear would also be different. How can senior be sure that the treasure inside this time is definitely what senior needs?"
Atop a cloud of purple clouds, Purple Garden's Daofather was elegantly tasting the spiritual tea within the teacup as he said, "I've told you before that there is an ancient forest appearing in Huai County. And this kind of premonition usually means that this ancient forest contains the most precious treasure."
Yang Junshan asked again, "Then I wonder what is the forerunner of Sophora County's appearance this time?"
After putting down the teacup in her hand, Daofather Ziyuan smiled faintly and said, "It's a gourd vine!"
"Is this Scholartree Manor?"
Yang Junshan looked down from the purple cloud and said, "Didn't they say Huai County is the most chaotic place in Sang Province? How come it seems so peaceful now?"
Even though he possessed the cultivation of the third level of the Taoist Realm, he still possessed the emotions of a little girl. Hearing what was said, he immediately chuckled and said, "Your question is very childish, and now that all kinds of amazing cultivators are gathered at the Scholartree Manor, the number of the Taoist cultivators in the Scholartree County might even be greater than the number of Heavenly Dipper and Taibai cultivators. I wonder how many high-level cultivators of the foreign forces have come, and who dares to cause trouble at such a time?"
Yang Junshan knew that he had asked an idiotic question. Smiling awkwardly, he scratched the back of his head and said: "According to what senior said, this time the most precious treasure that appeared in the ancient forest should be the calabash vine. Then in the past, what kind of treasure appeared when the ancient jungle was opened?"
"Three hundred years ago, this Daofather had just advanced into the Dao Realm and heard that there was a struggle for the ancient forest, but in the end, he wasn't strong enough. At that time, the fire treasure, Fusang Mu, appeared in the ancient forest, and in order to obtain it, a total of six Daoists came to the Yan Province, three of which were from the Burning Heaven Clan. After a drama in the forest, they went through some secret deals that no one knew of, and the Yan Province paid the price of one Daoist dying to take five of the seven pillars while the Burning Heaven Clan only got three."0
As he spoke to here, he seemed to have thought of something interesting and said, "Speaking of the Fusang Wood Branch, other than the five that the five Daoists from the Yan Province obtained, do you know who obtained the other two?"
Yang Junshan was confused, "For who?"
However, it was said that the person was from the Spirit Apostle Sect. This was also the reason why the few Daoist cultivators from the Yan Province didn't get this Fusang Tree in the end; after all, the Spirit Apostle Sect was a large sect like the Burning Heaven Clan, and the Sang Province was the territory of the Spirit Apostle Sect. Even a powerful dragon like the Burning Heaven Clan wouldn't dare to provoke a leader like the Spirit Apostle Sect.
Yang Junshan was surprised: "That Fusang Mu is a fire treasure, but even a Taoist cultivator has fallen because of it, is it worth it?"
The Purple Garden's Daofather shot him a glance and said, "What do you know? This sort of supreme treasure, after being refined, can raise a cultivator's cultivation technique by a level. Do you know what this means?"
Without waiting for Yang Junshan's reply, he continued, "This means that a cultivator whose potential has been depleted can once again improve! The highest potential of a cultivator who cultivates a high-grade precious technique is usually only able to reach the Pure Cloud Realm, and the possibility of advancing to the Hua Gai Realm is extremely small. However, once a treasure with similar attributes is refined, the quality of the cultivation technique that he cultivates will be comparable to the inheritance of low-grade Dao realm, and the possibility of the cultivator breaking through to the Hua Gai Realm will also greatly increase. "
Yang Junshan was actually thinking about the red wooden staff that Yang Junhao had refined. Adept Seven Yang suspected that this was a fire treasure, and this boy also practiced a high-grade treasure cultivation method, the Inheritance Flame Red Lotus. In this case, didn't that boy mean that her cultivation method would be raised to a low-grade Dao realm?
No wonder this kid could cultivate the Seven Suns Flaming Fire Arts so easily, and he didn't even need to refine the Fire Gathering Tower, which was one of the Flaming Valley's secret techniques!
The Purple Garden Daoist did not know what Yang Junshan was thinking, so he continued, "Of course, the benefits of this kind of treasure are definitely not limited to just these. It is much easier to cultivate this kind of sacred art, and the power of the sacred art will greatly increase as well, which requires the cultivator to experience it on his own during the process of cultivation."
"After cultivating for a hundred li, one would have passed through ninety stages of the Dao Realm. However, at this time, his potential is exhausted. Which Taoist do you think would be willing to wait for death in such a situation?" At this moment, even if there is the slightest bit of hope, we will still fight to the death. If we are unable to live forever at our current level, what's the point of living for another three to five hundred years? Therefore, those who are not ambitious for the sake of immortality have a saying that the older they are, the more timid they are. However, for those who are ambitious for the sake of immortality, the opposite is often true! "
"Three hundred years ago, during the battle in the ancient forest, one of the six cultivators of the Yan Province fell. In fact, there were five Dao Realm cultivators that fell in that battle, and one of them was the only one in the Heaven Shaking Sect whose lifespan was about to run out, and he suffered even more injuries. As for the number of deaths of the Heavenly Dipper Sovereigns and the Supreme Dipper Sovereigns, who knows?"

Sadly, the power failure today was met by Sleeping Autumn. I can only change it. Sorry!
