Sovereign to Immortality

Chapter 139 – Undercurrent

“You, you, you …”

Yang Junshan’s surging aura made Han Xiusheng speechless and shocked. In the end, he only said one sentence: “You broke through already?”

Yang Junshan laughed: “Uncle has already converted all the spirit energy, all the Immortal Foundation in my body has been converted, all I can see is the last step to opening my Dantian!”

“Isn’t he still being held up at the last step of opening his Dantian!”

Han Xiusheng’s face had a complex expression on it, he waved his hand and said: “Only sixteen years old, a sixteen year old Martial Realm Cultivator, even those powerful families might not have such outstanding disciples. Little Shan, you should go to Heaven-Shaken Sect, otherwise I’m afraid that it will affect yourself!”

Yang Junshan hurriedly said, “Uncle still has to keep the news of my nephew’s martial arts realm advancement a secret for the time being. In the meantime, I need to train in the clematis in seclusion foeriod of time with uncle.”

“Just focus on your cultivation!”

Han Xiusheng nodded his head, but then seemed to find it hard to say anything, but he still said: “Uncle is also preparing to go into closed door training to try to break through his martial arts realm this time, if something happens, I have already informed your aunt, she will bring Little Jing and Little Wu along to the Tuqiu Village, and you can remember to take care of them, especially Little Jing and Little Wu. Little Jing tested her talent this year, and they are only level 4.

Every time a cultivator goes into seclusion to break through a bottleneck, it would usually not be inferior to a life or death struggle. Especially when it comes to trying to break through a large realm like the martial arts realm, a moment of carelessness like opening the dantian could lead to an accident.

Yang Junshan consoled him, “Uncle has accumulated for so many years at the fifth stage of the Mortal Realm, so his foundation is already sufficient.

Han Xiusheng nodded and sighed: “It’s precisely because my body is not sufficiently refined. I have never let go of the Reckless Bull Fist in all these years, but the results are truly insignificant. In the last two years, I have also not progressed a single inch, afraid that I won’t be able to withstand the vibrations when I open my Dantian.”

Yang Junshan thought for a while, then said: “Perhaps it’s because the Reckless Bull Fist isn’t too suitable for uncle, but I have a set of Body Tempering Fist techniques here, so uncle can give iry.

did not really care about it, but when Yang Junshan displayed this fist technique, the shock on his face became more and more obvious. This fist technique was also a low tier fist technique, but during the process of practice, it caused Yang Junshan’s entire body to feel as if it was brimming with vitality. He could feel that his nephew’s fist technique seemed to be extremely compatible with the Evergreen Art that he was cultivating.

Just as Yang Junshan finished demonstrating this fist technique, Han Xiusheng was already impatient to ask: “What’s the name of this fist technique? Quickly demonstrate it for your uncle again!”

Yang Junshan had no choice but to practice it once again, and explained the rest of the moves one by one until Han Xiusheng completely mastered the low tier fist techniques, and then left, while Han Xiusheng continued to practice and study the fist techniques repeatedly.

Because he wanted to cultivate spirit arts, Yang Junshan did not need to train in seclusion much like he did to increase his cultivation. He asked his uncle about what had happened in Chenyu County during this period of time and tried to see the situation in the entire Yuxian through the circumstances in these two counties.

In the end, Spiritual Master Wang Qian had still replaced the mighty Spiritual Master Ma of the Chenyu County as the County Magistrate. Although the father and son duo had secretly informed the Tan Xi Sect of the secret of Spiritual Master Wang Qian’s disciple Xue Sheng’s son, and had even spread the news that he was trying to kill the disciples of the Heaven-Shaken Sect in the Nanxuan swamp, the previous Spiritual Master Ma had indeed used this matter to create quite a commotion in the Chenyu County, and it was even rumored that the matter had been reported to the Heaven-Shaken Sect.

But just as Yang Tiangang had expected, the matter of Xue Sheng, who was guarding the Stone Town for several months, resigning after committing the crime of not being strict with his discipline had no effect on him. Wang Qian still took over the position of Chenyu County, but other than the Bluestone Town who was watching over Wang Yuan, the other towns in the rest of the Chenyu County s had all changed their positions prior to the departure of Taoist Ma, as these guards were either surnamed Ma or Sun.

Other than these two tyrannical disciples, Chenyu County’s Prominent Classes such as the Yun Family and the Fang Shishi Family also held the position of Village Head in their subordinate villages.

It could be said that for the past three months that Spiritual Master Wang Qian had been in the Chenyu County, aside from the Bluestone Town, almost all of the subordinate villages and towns had disobeyed his orders and had never been able to open a situation.

The Wealthy and Prominent Class families in the Chenyu County were obviously boycotting Spiritual Master Wang Qian’s appointment. Actually, this was not because they had opinions about Spiritual Master Wang Qian himself, but just boycotting the orders of the Heaven-Shaken Sect. In the end, it was to protect the interests of their respective families.

However, what they did not know was that, while Spiritual Master Wang Qian was running up and down for the position of Chenyu County, he was also selfish. He did not do it purely for the sake of the Heaven-Shaken Sect, and while borrowing the power of the Heaven-Shaken Sect to seek personal gains, he was also suffering from the dissatisfaction of various families in the Chenyu County.

The Yang Family had also suffered from the dissatisfaction of the various large and small families and powers of the Chenyu County as well as the Bluestone Town’s Prominent Class Yang Family. As the biological family of Wang Qian, not only did the Yang Family take the initiative to give up their position of Bluestone Town to Wang Qian, but they also gave up their position of protector of the Bluestone Town to the eldest grandson of Wang Qian.

However, in the eyes of all the local forces in the Chenyu County, the actions of the Bluestone Town’s Yang Family was undoubtedly a betrayal of the entire Chenyu County. The Yang Family’s situation did not improve greatly just because of the arrival of Wang Qian, but instead, they paid a lot more during these three months in order to support Wang Qian.

However, what made things worse was that recently, when the Yang family’s failed his attempt to breakthrough to the fourth stage of martial arts realm, a large amount of cultivation resources accumulated by the Yang family had been depleted because of his failure.

However, according to the information that Han Xiusheng had gathered from the Lao Yang family, although Yang Junshan’s uncle’s breakthrough to the fourth stage was a failure, the large amount of cultivation resources that the Lao Yang family had prepared for him had not been completely used up.

At the same time, not long after Spiritual Master Wang Qian took over the position of Chenyu County, a huge event happened to the neighboring Mengyu County as well, which was the position of the County Magistrate that had always been held by the Mengyu County’s three strongest Xiong Family s, the Ning Family and the Yu Family. When Adept Chang Feng gave up the position of the County Magistrate because his eldest son had become the true successor of the Heaven-Shaken Sect, the Heaven-Shaken Sect did not do it for the Ning Family and the Yu Family.

When the news arrived, the entire Mengyu County was in an uproar. However, the three powerful Xiong Family s, the Ning Family and the Yu Family all remained abnormally silent on this matter, and did not take any direct measures to oppose the County Magistrate.

However, the silence of the Mengyu County had instead caused the atmosphere of the entire Mengyu County to turn rainy day, as if a storm that far surpassed the Chenyu County was brewing, and was waiting for the right time to erupt like a volcano.

Just in case, the secret passage of Tuo Wu Shan had stopped moving during this period of time. Everyone in the entire Wasteland Town was anxious, the Meng Shan who had been guarding the passage for more than a year was no longer able to hold their ground, and had gone to the Tuqiu Village several times to beg for Yang Tiangang’s deputy head to help him stabilize the situation. However, Yang Tiangang pushed it away using the excuse of closed door cultivation.

At this time, Yang Tiangang had become the deputy guard of the Tuqiu Village and would undoubtedly be dragged into this undercurrent of events. After all, the Yang family’s foundation in the Tuqiu Village was still shallow, and could not handle such torture.

At present, although Yang Junshan only understood the situation of the Chenyu County and the Mengyu County, he guessed that the situation in the other few counties of the Yuxian was probably similar to that of the two counties.

According to the news that Chu Chuang had transmitted over, there were many new faces in the various towns and counties of Chenyu County these days. These people’s clothes and accents did not look like outsiders from the other counties of Yuzhou, but rather seemed like they were from Jinyu County s, Mengyu County s, and Yu County s that were neighbors.

After arriving at the Chenyu County, these people frequently visited the families of the Prominent Class, Wealthy Class and famous Martial Realm Cultivator. It was even said that there were people visiting Yang Yan’s house in the Yang family of the Bluestone Town.

At the same time, all the large and small families and powers in Chenyu County had also sent people to the surrounding counties. These people were close to each other, and were obviously exchanging information, planning something for each other.

In Yang Junshan’s eyes, there were already people in the Heaven-Shaken Sect who had realized that the sect’s control over the various counties under the Yuxian was loose. Over the past few hundred years, all of the basic forces in the Yuxian had been under the control of large and small families and powers. Although the Heaven-Shaken Sect was still high up in the sky, his foundation was being drained bit by bit, and he looked more and more like a floating pavilion.

At this time, Yuxian was likatient who was unable to return, if he wanted to regain his prestige, he should have been able to do so slowly, but now that he was seizing power in the counties, it was undoubtedly like giving a bowl of Tiger Wolf’s medicine to a seriously ill person, even if it was a serious illness, the patient’s body would not be able to withstand the intense turmoil, at that time, it would be difficult to remove the internal problems, and the external problems would also come true for Yuxian!

The more Yang Junshan pondered about the current situation, the more he felt that the situation was urgent. At the same time, he inwardly sighed at the time in his previous life, when he was probably still hiding in Tuqiu Village to work hard for the fifth stage of Mortal Realm.

The higher one stood, the more one could sometimes comprehend the terror of the storm before the storm and the waves came. However, the minor characters still lived carefree lives until the moment when the world turned upside down.

On a cliff outside the Bluestone Town, Yang Junshan circulated the spirit energy in his body, and suddenly shouted as he stomped his foot downwards. The entire mountain seemed to shake a little, and then, with a creaking sound, it was split open from the cliff, followed by a loud noise that sounded like a landslide, causing the entire cliff to cringe backwards at the back.
