Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather Chapter 1393: 886: Yang Jizhen's Foundation Establishment

Following his departure from Que Lingfei’s cave abode, Yang Zhenshan made his way back to the Spirit Source Land.

Arriving at Green Wolf Mountain, he presented the “Taichu Transformation Skill” to the Green Wolf King. “How is it? Can you comprehend it?”

The Green Wolf King possessed literacy; its intelligence was on par with humans. Yang Zhenshan had previously imparted the knowledge of recognition of words to it, and over the years, it had perused a considerable number of books.

In essence, it was a cultured wolf.

With its paw, the Green Wolf King pressed the Jade Scroll against its forehead, commencing the examination of its contents.

Upon finishing, a look of confusion appeared on its face.

“Awoo~~”

“Where do you find yourself not understanding?”

“Awoo~~”

“This depicts a diagram of human acupoints and meridians. Come, observe this!” Yang Zhenshan produced an acupoint chart and placed it before the Green Wolf King.

“Awoo~~” The Green Wolf King extended a paw, making gestures upon the diagram.

Yang Zhenshan massaged his temples. Very well, for the Green Wolf King to grasp the acupoint chart, it required a foundational education.

A tutor was necessary!

“Never mind, I shall arrange a tutor for you!”

He lacked the leisure to instruct the Green Wolf King himself. Furthermore, these constituted the bedrock of cultivation, a fundamental learning essential for both Martial Artists and Immortal Cultivators.

Yang Zhenshan simply sought out Luo Feiyu to serve as the Green Wolf King’s instructor, aiming to impart basic cultivation knowledge first.

Luo Feiyu was chosen due to his own possession of a Gale Grey Wolf, his familiarity with the habits of Gale Grey Wolves, and his understanding of wolf language, which would facilitate communication with the Green Wolf King.

After entrusting the Green Wolf King to Luo Feiyu, Yang Zhenshan proceeded to the Disciple Abode.

The Disciple Abode had undergone several expansions, now boasting over thirty courtyards. The inhabitants of the Disciple Abode were exclusively Yang Zhenshan’s descendants.

Indeed, descendants they were.

Yang Jizhen, Ma Qiuyan, Ning Yun, and others also had their own disciples.

Upon Yang Zhenshan’s arrival at the Disciple Abode, Yang Jizhen and the others were already in attendance.

“Greetings, Master!”

“Greetings, Grandmaster!”

A synchronized bow was offered by over ten individuals.

“Hmm! Arise, please!”

Yang Zhenshan offered a slight nod, occupying the central seat in the main hall, his gaze surveying each person present.

Those before him were all his progeny.

With the exception of Cui Yang and Zhang Hexuan, who remained in Qingli Immortal City, all others had arrived.

Among them, Yang Jizhen’s cultivation had advanced to the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining, standing on the precipice of Foundation Establishment.

Ma Qiuyan, Cui Yang, and Ning Yun’s cultivation levels lagged slightly behind, all residing between the Eighth and Ninth Layers of Qi Refining, necessitating further refinement.

Zhang Hexuan remained at the Seventh Layer of Qi Refining, while Li Jian’an and Li Janning had attained the Fifth Layer of Qi Refining.

In addition to seven disciples, six grand-disciples were also present.

Two of these were members of the Yang family: Yang Zongyuan, the son of Yang Jizhen and Ma Qiuyan, and Yang Jiye, the young grandson of Yang Chengyu.

The remaining four were Spiritual Acupoints that had recently manifested within the Spirit Source Land over the past decade.

As the population of the Spirit Source Land continued to expand, coupled with the recent assimilation of Spiritual Acupoints from the region west of the Stormy Sea Area throughout the years, the number of Spiritual Acupoints within the Spirit Source Land experienced continuous growth.

Currently, over a hundred individuals in the Spirit Source Land possessed Spiritual Acupoints. However, the majority were situated within the Jingxuan Hall of Ziwei Tower. A select few, younger and exhibiting greater talent, either became descendants of Yang Zhenshan or were accepted into the Taoist Palace by Xuanzhen.

The purpose of Yang Zhenshan’s visit today was to empower Yang Jizhen, Ma Qiuyan, and Ning Yun to accept more disciples.

“Master!” Yang Jizhen addressed him.

“Hmm, commence!” Yang Zhenshan stroked his beard, a gentle smile gracing his lips.

Yang Jizhen’s eyes sparkled with a smile, and he gestured to Yang Zongyuan, who stood beside him.

Yang Zongyuan belonged to the sixth generation of the Yang family. The eldest of this generation, Yang Zongsheng, had surpassed sixty years of age, while Yang Zongyuan himself was in his early twenties.

Possessing remarkable talent and aptitude, his cultivation reached the Fifth Layer of Qi Refining before his twenty-third birthday.

Barring unforeseen circumstances, Yang Zongyuan was poised to become the future progenitor of the Yang family.

As the Yang family’s descendants proliferated, Yang Zhenshan was dedicating his focus to cultivating future leaders.

Yang Chengye and Yang Chengmao were exemplary, yet as Martial Artists, their brilliance was somewhat eclipsed by that of Immortal Cultivators.

Within the vast Spirit Source Land, Yang Jizhen, Yang Zongyuan, and Yang Jiye stood as true pillars of the Yang family. While Yang Zhenshan ensured that cultivation resources were distributed equally among them, his heart, when it came to power, naturally leaned towards his own bloodline.

Not long after, Yang Zongyuan emerged from the inner hall, escorting three young disciples.

A boy accompanied by two girls, each likely around seven or eight years of age.

"Come, pay your respects to your masters!" Yang Zongyuan announced with warmth, guiding the trio towards Yang Jizhen, Ma Qiuyan, and Ning Yun.

"Greetings, Master!" chorused the three children, their innocent voices echoing as they knelt and bowed.

Following this, Yang Zongyuan instructed servants to bring tea, and with meticulous care, the three novices presented the beverages to their newly appointed masters.

"Not bad at all~~"

Yang Jizhen and his peers offered words of encouragement to the three children. Thereafter, they led their newly accepted disciples to formally greet the Grandmaster, Yang Zhenshan.

Yang Zhenshan beamed, affectionately ruffling the heads of the three youngsters. These children represented the latest Spirit Acupoint discoveries made within the Spirit Source Land for the year.

Previously, the Spirit Source Land relied on the cultivation of the Green Wood Skill to ascertain the presence of Spiritual Acupoints. However, this method was now obsolete; a simple Spirit Talisman could swiftly detect whether an individual possessed these crucial Acupoints.

Despite its simplicity, the Spirit Talisman was merely a common artifact, not even ranking as a low-grade talisman of the First Order.

Yet, its utility in identifying Spiritual Acupoints was undeniable, requiring a mere minute or two to complete the test.

Consequently, for the past decade, the Spirit Source Land had widely adopted the use of Spirit Talismans for this purpose.

It is important to note, however, that beyond the confines of the Spirit Source Land, specifically within the Da’an Dynasty and the Ten Thousand Miles Sea Domain, the traditional Green Wood Skill remained the standard method for such examinations.
