Chapter 44 - Arrival
Chapter 44 – Arrival
As the Martial Realm Cultivator, as well as the Village Head, they were able to own three mu of Low Rank Ling Tian for farming. But even with the help of a Hunting Horse Beast, both Yang Tiangang and Han Xiumei would only be able to cultivate two mu and a half of the Ling Tian.
In fact, Yang Tiangang and his wife always had to take time off to cultivate and take care of the affairs of the village. Therefore, let alone two and a half mu of Ling Tian, it was already not bad if they could take care of two and a half mu of livestock.
Yang Tienu and Yang Qingniu were both experts at the fifth stage of Mortal Realm, and when they first followed Yang Tiangang to the Tuqiu Village, they had barely split up three portions of the Ling Tian s each. After that, they had also split up one and a half acres of Ling Tian s that Yang Tiangang could not grow into six portions for rent.
Yang Tiangang’s remaining 90% Ling Tian could only continue to be leased to the other Spiritual Farmers s who did not have any Ling Tian to farm. Half of their annual harvests would be turned over to the Yang Tiangang family for rent.
Even so, there were still many Spiritual Farmers s who wished to rent Ling Tian s from the Yang Family, because Yang Cunzheng’s Ling Tian s maintained their spirit energy well. More importantly, the Ling Tian s who had been leased were able to receive water from the spirit well, so their harvest was slightly higher than the other Ling Tian s.
Although the Yang family could be considered a big family in the Chenyu County, there were still many branch family members who lived a life of hardship, and it was impossible for them to take care of all of them. All these years, the Yang family had been trying their best to get closer to the Heaven-Shaken Sect, and had given a large amount of cultivation resources to the Adept Realm Cultivator, so they did not have any more resources to take care of the branch family members.
At this time, if Yang Tiangang could use the Ling Tian s to attract the people of Madame Yang, even if it was just renting, there would probably be a lot of people coming.
In the cultivation world, if a Spiritual Farmers was able to cultivate three parts of a Ling Tian, he would normally be able to maintain his family of five. And a cultivator with the fifth stage of Mortal Realm would at most cultivate sixty percent of a Ling Tian.
If the Yang family gained the nine-part land rented out to the Spiritual Farmers in the village, and adding the seven parts of the Ling Tian that they got this time, even if Su Baozhang got twenty to thirty percent of the s, they could still recruit three to five clan members from the Bluestone Town to submit to them. And with the help of his clan members, Yang Tiangang’s control over the Tuqiu Village would definitely be even tighter.
After the father and son talked at night, Yang Junshan once again resumed his day and night training. Yang Tiangang didn’t know if he was moved by his suggestion, but it seemed like he had returned to the Bluestone Town a few times these days, always acting like he was in a hurry. Yang Junshan was also not able to guess what his father was doing.
And at night, wave after wave of Tuqiu Village villagers came to visit, talking about the split of the Ling Tian s. Yang Junshan was patiently waiting, he decided to go to the Western Mountain to hide in the pomegranate forest.
Just like this, more than half a month passed. On this morning, Yang Junshan dug out the last bag of spirit dirt from the pomegranate forest and poured it into his clan’s Ling Tian s.
The Ling Tian that Yang Junshan was on was the largest in the entire Tuqiu Village, witotal of one-acre and three-acre land. It was also the Ling Tian that Yang Tiangang and his wife had never cultivated with their own hands before.
Although the foot of the Western Mountain had nurtured three mu of Ling Tian, in reality, those Ling Tian were also divided into many pieces. The process of cultivating Ling Tian was extremely meticulous, and it was very rare for one to be able to cultivate an entire piece of Ling Tian.
The two Ling Tian s added together only covered an area of one acre and two half. After being given to Yang Tiangang, the Ling Tian had been forcefully raised to the Ling Tian level by Yang Tiangang using Spirit Well Water and some other methods to cultivate a normal field between the two Ling Tian s. Furthermore, the two Ling Tian s had also become one piece, and the area had increased by one acre as well.
The quality of the spiritual earth here was at least a mid-grade Dharma rank. Although it was like a cup of water with the large size of the Ling Tian, it could at least make the amount of spirit energy in the soil of the Ling Tian fall without exception for the next two to three years.
Amongst the Ling Tian, the tassels hung down their heads heavily. The grains were round and plump, and as the breeze blew, a wave of valley bullied them, giving rise to traces of refreshing spiritual energy.
It was at this time that a beast carriage was approaching from afar on the road that led to the outside of the village. At this moment, a dozen or so people came out from the village to welcome them, led by one of the three Martial Realm Cultivator s of the Tuqiu Village, Zhang Huzi’s father, Blacksmith Zhang.
If Yang Junshan had a revelation, then when he turned around to look at the beast carriage, he would see that the person who had alighted from it, was not the number one genius of the Mengyu County, Zhang Yueming’s father, Zhang Chenghong.
When the two of them met, they made extremely intimate greetings, and then the Blacksmith Zhang seemed to introduce him to the people of Tuqiu Village, who stood behind him. When facing others, Zhang Chenghong immediately looked very reserved, and the crowd of Tuqiu Village citizens all gave him an expression of honor.
The Blacksmith Zhang had already taken the lead to take action, it could be seen that the maturity of the Ling Tian was already imminent, the various Spiritual Farmers s were no longer able to sit still, even Yang Tiangang had invited Seventh Uncle An Xia as a backup just in case, as he did not know what the Tuqiu Village’s largest clan, the Xu Family, would do.
However, all of these were not things that Yang Junshan could do anything about at the moment. He was completely focused on refining the Immortal’s Spirit and breaking through to the Perfection of the second stage.
These days, he had been cultivating in the pomegranate forest and the Spirit Spring Water Cave. With the help of the rich spiritual energy, not only was the speed of refining immortal spirits greatly increased, but the cultivation of the Mountain Lord’s Map had also greatly improved.
Currently, Yang Junshan had already cultivated two of the eight mountain monarch diagrams, the crouching tiger picture and the crouching tiger picture. The main effect of the crouching tiger picture was to heal and recover, but just one tiger picture caused Yang Junshan’s physical body’s strength to increase tremendously, and the effect was far from something that the Raging Bull Fist and the like could compare. One must know that this was only two of the eight mountain monarch diagrams.
However, Yang Junshan had already noticed when he was cultivating the Inscription Map, that with his current cultivation level and the strength of his body, he was unable to withstand the burden of training the other six images of the Mountain Lord Painting. He did not know how much stronger his body had become before he was qualified to continue cultivating.
Now, every time Yang Junshan cultivated the crouching tiger image, the bones in his body would emit explosive sounds like thunder. This kind of situation had only occurred in his previous life when he had also cultivated to the high level of Mortal Realm, and the most direct effect brought about by the strengthening of his physical body was the increase in his strength. Now, the three stone sculpture large bow also seemed to have become soft in his hands.
However, even though the increase in strength of his body made him extremely satisfied, Yang Junshan could still feel that there seemed to be some unknown changes occurring within his bones when he was cultivating the Tiger’s Dweller Diagram. Because he did not know if the result of this change was good or bad, he was somewhat nervous in his heart.
The immortal spirit essence within the bear gall had already been completely refined by Yang Junshan. Now, outside of the Celestial Spirit Aperture in Yang Junshan’s courage, a surging ball of immortal spirit essence was like a lake that had accumulated countless energy, waiting for the barrier inside of the Celestial Spirit Aperture to break.
However, Yang Junshan had encountered trouble while refining the last piece of Divine Spirit, perhaps because the last piece was condensed from the tiger teeth immortal spirit’s essence, the refining speed had become extremely slow. It was at the peak of the Divine Spirit Realm, at the peak of the Divine Spirit Realm.
After cultivating in the pomegranate forest for a few days without much progress, Yang Junshan returned to the village helplessly. As soon as he entered the village, he heard that Xu Jing had already refined a middle ranked immortal wind beacon, and the day before yesterday, he was even summoned to question by the Lord Protector of Wasteland Town.
Everyone said that this was the Lord Protector trying to show good will to his future junior sisters, because once Xu Jing advanced to the third stage, it was extremely possible that she would become a disciple of Heaven-Shaken Sect’s outer sect, just like the Lord Protector. And Wasteland Town had already more or less never produced sucalent.
And today, was the day that Xu Lei and Xu Jing’s wedding was set. The Xu family had already arranged a great banquet in the village, and it was said that even the Great Guardian had sent someone to give them an extremely precious gift.
Arriving at the front of the Xu residence, Yang Junshan and Xu Jing were toasting to the guests, the arrogance on Xu Jing’s face had disappeared, but it was replaced by a more confident look, especially the calmness of the girl, which made Yang Junshan feel that he needed to prepare enough sympathy for the future of Xu Lei.
“Brother, where have you been these past few days?”
Yang Junping appeared out of nowhere, his hand still holding onto many exquisite dishes, as he ate he said unclearly: “Brother, you don’t know, just a few days ago Zhang Huzi was too arrogant, he said that the Medicine Zhang that came to his house was going to concoct the concentrated medicinal pellets for him and help him break through to the Immortal Spirit Aperture, when he was the first to open his Immortal Spirit Aperture, he would already be the number one young expert in Tuqiu Village.”
Yang Junshan laughed upon hearing that, and said: “A few days ago? Didn’t he already boast that he was the number one young expert? Does that mean that he himself knows that he doesn’t live up to his name? ”
Yang Junping stuffed a piece of Spirit bean cake into his mouth and said: “That’s right, let me tell you, that girl Xu Jing is really powerful. A few days ago when Xu Jing returned from town and met her, that Zhang Huzi called her ‘Xu Lei’s little wife’ from far away. I don’t know if she was just spouting some roguish nonsense, but she pissed her off in an instant, what do you think happened next?”
He swallowed all the delicious food in his mouth with all his might, but he didn’t mind Yang Junshan not answering his question. He continued, “And then, Zhang Huzi was beaten up by Xu Jing! Bro, why didn’t I know that this girl was so fierce before! Even Zhang Huzi was not his opponent, no wonder he was an outer disciple of the Heaven-Shaken Sect! ”
Yang Junping was talking happily, but Yang Junshan was not the least bit surprised. It seemed like Yang Junshan had already known the answer to the question of whether that little rascal Zhang Huzi was his match.
Just as he turned around to leave, he saw a chubby little boy running over with his little sister, followed by a beautiful little tiger cub. He heard his little sister calling out as she ran, “Big brother, second brother, Seventh Aunt and Seventh Uncle’s family is here. Dad is telling you two to hurry back!”
