Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Chapter 1840 - 1110: This Is Not the Yang Family, but White Jade City!

”Hall Master, what should we do?” Ji Wusi said in a deep voice.

If they can’t fight in the Void, are they still Golden Core cultivators?

In future battles with Golden Core cultivators, they are almost akin to fish on a chopping board, ready to be slaughtered.

During combat, the enemy can use the Void to avoid their attacks or launch surprise assaults, and if the enemy hides in the Void, they have no way to counter.

”What should we do?” An Wusheng’s face was pale; he didn’t know what to do either.

This battle was simply a joke.

With just one sword strike, they almost annihilated their Soul Control Hall.

The problem now is that the Soul Control Hall has lost two more Golden Core cultivators, and they too have suffered severe injuries, almost impossible to recover from.

They definitely cannot continue to lead the Soul Control Hall, and the hall has suffered a significant loss in strength.

With consecutive losses, the Soul Control Hall can no longer gather five Golden Core cultivators.

”Let’s go back and prepare to enter the Corpse Sea!” An Wusheng said dejectedly.

Leaving the Unpredictable Ghost Sect is impossible. Once they return, they certainly cannot continue to lead the Soul Control Hall and are highly likely to be exiled to the Corpse Sea to become its managers.

Their identity, status, and resources will all plummet.

This outcome is hard for them to accept, but they have no choice but to accept it; they have no other options.

...

A day later, Xuanzhen leisurely returned.

Yang Zhenshan opened the gate for him, allowing him to enter the Spirit Source Land.

Inside Longevity Lake.

Yang Zhenshan was still wearing down the Divine Soul of the Yellow Springs Old Ghost. Despite the Old Ghost boasting Peak of Ghost King cultivation, his Divine Soul was incredibly resilient. It would take a considerable amount of time to completely obliterate his Divine Soul with the Soul Returning Array.

Thankfully, the threat of the Unpredictable Ghost Sect had been temporarily lifted, so Yang Zhenshan was able to stay at Longevity Lake, slowly wearing down the Yellow Springs Old Ghost’s Divine Soul.

”Hahaha, we struck it rich!” Xuanzhen came over, laughing with excitement.

Yang Zhenshan looked up and asked with a smile, ”How many ghost creatures did you capture?”

Seeing Xuanzhen so excited, he knew the gains must be significant.

Xuanzhen pulled out three Ten Thousand Ghosts Banners and chuckled, ”Guess!”

”Guess your head!” Yang Zhenshan retorted irritably.

Xuanzhen didn’t mind his lack of cooperation and with a grin said, ”Over eight hundred Ghost Generals, more than five thousand ordinary Yin Ghosts!”

Yang Zhenshan’s eyes widened, ”That many?”

”Indeed, when I take action, how could I let them escape!” Xuanzhen said smugly.

Yang Zhenshan secretly clicked his tongue; Xuanzhen truly showed his might this time, managing to capture over eight hundred Ghost Generals in one go.

Bear in mind, the Ghost Army led by the Yellow Springs Ancestor only had about two thousand Ghost Generals, and Xuanzhen captured a third of them in one swoop, rendering the Ghost Army useless.

”Not bad, not bad. Next, expedite transforming these Ghost Generals into Divine Generals. With so many Ghost Generals, it’s enough for us to establish a Divine General Army!” Yang Zhenshan praised.

Currently, he has over two hundred Divine Generals, and if he can convert these eight hundred Ghost Generals into Divine Generals, he will have more than a thousand Ghost Generals. Although this is still far from his goal of a ten-thousand Divine General army, it is a great start.

”Alright, leave this to me, but I have another idea!”

”What idea?”

”Yellow Springs Hall!” Xuanzhen chuckled.

Yang Zhenshan paused briefly and then understood his meaning.

Despite capturing many Yin Ghosts this time, even more managed to escape; those Yin Ghosts will inevitably return to Yellow Springs Hall.

They might scatter and flee, but ultimately they will return to Yellow Springs Hall.

The reason is simple: Yellow Springs Hall is located deep within the Earth Abyss, where underground Yin Veins converge, making it the best place for ghost cultivation, as well as a gathering place for Yin Ghosts.

Throughout the Wanhua Western Region and Wanhua Mountain Range, the majority of ghost cultivators are gathered at Yellow Springs Hall.

Yellow Springs Hall is not merely a hall but represents the entirety of the ghost cultivators’ settlement, inhabited by tens of thousands of Yin Ghosts.

Now they’ve captured the Yellow Springs Old Ghost and repelled the Ghost Army, plunging Yellow Springs Hall into a chaotic leaderless state.

If they go to Yellow Springs Hall now, they are sure to capture a large number of Yin Ghosts.

However, it’s not easy to take over Yellow Springs Hall, as it is protected by arrays, and numerous Ghost Generals are inside.

Previously, don’t be fooled into thinking that Xuanzhen could effortlessly overpower the tens of thousands of the Ghost Army by chasing them around.

Xuanzhen was able to chase the Ghost Army around because they were initially caught off guard; if they were prepared, it’s uncertain whether Xuanzhen could withstand tens of thousands of ghosts.

It was due to their lack of preparedness that allowed Xuanzhen to seize the opportunity, infiltrating the army’s ranks and disrupting their formation, inducing panic among the Yin Ghosts, resulting in a crushing defeat and forcing them to flee.

Replicating such feats at Yellow Springs Hall is nearly impossible.

They would require considerable effort to claim Yellow Springs Hall.

Yang Zhenshan contemplated for a while, then said, ”No rush, Yellow Springs Hall isn’t going anywhere; once we deal with the current aftermath, it’s not too late to seize it!”

He’s certainly intent on capturing Yellow Springs Hall. If they manage to get it, his plan to forge a ten-thousand Divine General army would be halfway fulfilled.

Nonetheless, the Unpredictable Ghost Sect is still advancing on Yunxiao Mountain Range, and in the present, Yellow Springs Hall belongs to the Unpredictable Ghost Sect.

It’s not wise to attack proactively at this moment; maintaining a low profile for a while is better.
