Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather Chapter 1515 - 945: Forget River Dew, Late-stage Foundation Establishment

Spring turns to autumn, and in the blink of an eye, two years have passed.

Mianyun Continent, within the Evergreen Pavilion.

Yang Zhenshan gazed at the drizzling rain outside, his heart exceptionally tranquil.

In the span of two years, the construction of the Guest Palace has been completed. The newly built Guest Palace consists of a grand hall, seven towers, and more than thirty courtyards, including a large area dedicated to a Medicinal Garden.

The grand hall, known as the Guest Palace, serves as a place for the elders of the palace to discuss matters or handle affairs. Currently, there are four elders in the Guest Palace: Yang Zhenshan, Yun Xiao, Yun Xi, and Liu Yue.

Aside from the four elders, the Guest Palace hosts more than thirty Immortal Cultivators who hail from the Illusion Moon Sect and the Xuanqing Sect. As for the Yang family, Yang Zhenshan did not allow its Immortal Cultivators to join the Guest Palace, nor did Hidden Sword Mountain require him to do so.

Because the Yang family, unlike the two sects, is an Immortal Cultivation Family. If its cultivators joined the Guest Palace, then to whom would the palace belong, the Yang family or Hidden Sword Mountain?

"Elder Yang, please!"

Beside him, Jian Qingxiao sat at the tea table, proficiently brewing the Spiritual Tea.

"Mm!"

Yang Zhenshan savored the Spiritual Tea, praising, "Not bad!"

"If Elder Yang likes it, I can give you some," Jian Qingxiao smiled.

She was not an astonishing beauty; her looks could be described as graceful, but she had a gentle and tranquil aura, and her smile was particularly infectious.

For the past two years, she has been staying at Mianyun Continent, and although Yang Zhenshan is the Hall Master of the Guest Palace in name, she is the one who truly handles its matters.

Yang Zhenshan naturally does not compete with her for authority, and he is happy to let her manage the affairs.

Perhaps due to Yang Zhenshan’s lack of desire for power, Jian Qingxiao also holds a favorable opinion of him.

"There’s no need, I have plenty of tea!"

"What business does Fellow Daoist Qingxiao have today?"

Yang Zhenshan set down the tea bowl and looked at Jian Qingxiao.

The Evergreen Pavilion is his residence at the Guest Palace, consisting of three floors. The first floor includes a study, hall, and tea room for work and receiving guests; the second floor houses another study and bedroom for cultivation and rest; the third floor offers corridors and terraces that allow one to gaze into the distance.

Additionally, the Evergreen Pavilion forms a standalone courtyard, with gardens at the front and medicinal fields at the back, along with dozens of rooms.

Although Mianyun Continent was once a desolate wasteland, it being the center of the Sea of Spirit means the Spiritual Energy here is akin to that of a mid-grade Second-Order Spirit Vein, making it a Blessed Land suitable for Foundation Establishment Cultivators to train without any problems.

"I wish to ask for Elder Yang’s assistance with something," Jian Qingxiao softly spoke.

"What is it?"

Jian Qingxiao whispered, "The Mountain Master wishes for Elder Yang’s help to procure some Forget River Dew!"

Yang Zhenshan’s hand paused slightly as he poured tea, "Forget River Dew!"

"Indeed!" Jian Qingxiao gazed at Yang Zhenshan.

Forget River Dew can suppress the backlash of Heart Demons, allowing cultivators to comprehend their obsessions within illusions and stabilize their Dao Heart.

The dew must be extracted from the petals of the Forgetting River Mandala, which itself is a Second-Order Spiritual Medicine.

Extracting Forget River Dew from its petals is not difficult; any Second-rank Alchemist familiar with the Water Refining Skill can achieve this.

The crux is the rarity of the Forgetting River Mandala, as it is a Third-stage Spiritual Object.

Though the Forgetting River Mandala is a Third-stage Spiritual Object, the dew is a Second Order Spiritual Medicine. Extracting Forget River Dew from it seems wasteful but it is considered a Jie Dan Spirit Object.

Any spiritual object beneficial for Core Formation is termed a Jie Dan Spirit Object, such as a Top-grade Demon Yuan Pill.

Core Formation involves four barriers: Body, Mana, and Divine Soul, and finally the Heavenly Tribulation.

Typically, the Body Refined barrier is the easiest to overcome; mastering one or two body refinement techniques ensures that.

Next is the Magic Power Barrier, which requires compressing a large amount of mana until it solidifies and forms the core.

Relying solely on a cultivator’s mana makes forming the Golden Core difficult, hence the need for elixirs and spiritual objects that provide additional mana.

The reason why Top-grade Demon Yuan Pill is considered a Jie Dan Spirit Object is because it can provide sufficient mana during Core Formation.

Forget River Dew specifically targets the Divine Soul Barrier, suppressing heart demons, helping cultivators comprehend obsessions, and stabilizing their Dao Heart to prevent losing it during Core Formation.

The value of ordinary Second-Order Spiritual Medicine naturally is not as high as a Third-stage Spiritual Object, but that of a Jie Dan Spirit Object far exceeds a Third-stage Spiritual Object.

Jian Changhe desires Forget River Dew!

Is he preparing for Core Formation?

Yang Zhenshan was surprised by the query but not by its request.

"This is a difficult matter," he murmured.

Jian Qingxiao replied, "We know obtaining Forget River Dew is tough, but only Elder Yang can accomplish this task!"

"Ah, the Mountain Master really has given me a big conundrum!" Yang Zhenshan sighed heavily.

"It’s unavoidable; across the Yunxiao Mountain Range, only the Ten Thousand Treasures Store can source Forget River Dew!" Jian Qingxiao declared.

Forget River Dew is a Jie Dan Spirit Object, scarce even among other factions, and even highly prized within the Ten Thousand Treasures Store.

Given Yang Zhenshan’s status within Ten Thousand Treasures Store, exchanging something for Third-rank Spiritual Materials isn’t hard, provided his contribution is ample.

However, the Forgetting River Mandala and Forget River Dew are not ordinary spiritual items; they are Jie Dan Spirit Objects.

"I can try, but I can’t guarantee the Ten Thousand Treasures Store will agree," Yang Zhenshan admitted.

Honestly, he wished not to undertake this task as he also desired Forget River Dew.

Although Jian Changkong aimed to undergo Core Formation, he too wished for the advancement.

However, Yang Zhenshan’s current cultivation was still insufficient, hence he wasn’t hastily accumulating resources for Core Formation.

If an opportunity arose to acquire Forget River Dew, he would prioritize securing it for himself before aiding others.
