Legacy of the Spirit Stone

Chapter 10 – Successively breaking through, five people in Qi Condensation

After the relocation, the Yang Clan had a lot to keep them busy.

They had to cultivate fields, trade with two towns, open new shops in White Stone Town, establish inns and restaurants, and handle many other matters.

Yang Feiyun and Yang Xiaolei, the two brothers, were practically working non-stop every day.

Fortunately, the Yang Clan now had enough strength, and negotiations in White Stone Town went smoothly without much obstruction.

After the initial month of fluctuations, the situation of the Yang Clan gradually stabilized.

The new forbidden zone of the Yang Clan was directly set on the cliff behind them, a place with treacherous terrain that ordinary people couldn't climb without being cultivators.

Since moving to the new home, the cultivation of Yang Lingrui and the other two had not been delayed.

Elder Yu managed the overall situation outside, while Yang Guanfeng was responsible for training the three children and managing the Four-Leaf Spirit Grass.

Now, Yang Lingqing had already opened up twelve Qi Nodes and was in the stage of condensing her Qi Palace.

Yang Linghu had also opened ten nodes, not far from Qi Condensation.

As for Yang Lingrui, his cultivation speed was truly astonishing. In just over two months, he was already close to the peak of the Qi Condensation First Layer.

It was about time for the second drop of Spirit Liquid to be produced.

In the early hours, Yang Guanfeng was already guarding the spirit field, ready to collect the Spirit Liquid as soon as it was born.

After Yang Lingrui consumed this drop of Spirit Liquid, he entered a meditative state. Yang Guanfeng sensed from his aura that the child was attempting to break through a realm, and immediately informed Elder Yu, staying with him in seclusion.

"Elder Ancestor, how long will Lingrui need to be in seclusion to break through this time?" Yang Linghu asked with some concern.

"Breaking through a realm is unpredictable; it varies from person to person. Some might succeed in an hour, while others might take ten days or even a month."

Cultivators at the Qi Condensation Stage could already absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Although they couldn't completely abstain from food, they could go a month without eating or drinking.

"That long? I hope Lingrui will have a smooth breakthrough," Yang Lingqing said.

Elder Yu reassured the two children, "Don't worry, with Lingrui's talent, breaking through to the Qi Condensation Second Layer should be no problem. Besides, the clan leader is with him, so there's nothing to worry about. But you two, don't let this distract you from your own cultivation. Remember the tasks the clan leader assigned to you!"

The two children nodded quickly upon hearing this and turned back to their cultivation.

Before the relocation, Yang Guanfeng had a talk with the two children, explaining their future tasks.

The Yang Clan's mine wouldn't be guarded by the Willow Leaf Town's army for long due to the high costs, so a sufficiently powerful Qi Condensation cultivator was needed to oversee it.

Moreover, in White Stone Town, the Yang Clan needed more than just concessions to establish themselves; they needed enough strength.

Thus, he would oversee the mine, while Elder Yu would shuttle between White Stone Town and the Yang Clan Stronghold.

Lingrui needed to focus on his cultivation, so the task of guarding the Yang Clan would fall on the two of them.

This way, in the eyes of outsiders, the Yang Clan would appear to have only one Qi Condensation cultivator, Yang Lingrui, while hiding two more within.

With the mission to protect the family, Yang Linghu and Yang Lingrui had been particularly diligent in their cultivation recently.

After their daily cultivation, instead of playing around, they would follow Elder Yu, asking about various issues they encountered in cultivation.

On the fifth day of Yang Lingrui's seclusion, Yang Lingqing successfully condensed her Qi Palace, breaking through to the Qi Condensation Stage.

In terms of condensing the Qi Palace, Yang Lingqing and Yang Lingrui spent the same amount of time.

This was because condensing the Qi Palace wasn't as influenced by aptitude as absorbing spiritual energy was.

It was more like a technical skill, so Yang Lingqing, with her exceptional comprehension, managed to match his record despite having lesser aptitude.

Ten days later, Yang Lingrui emerged from seclusion, having reached the Qi Condensation Second Layer!

Inspired by their successive breakthroughs, Yang Linghu was also motivated and successfully broke through to Qi Condensation a month later.

Thus, with the assistance of Chen Yang and the Spirit Liquid, the Yang Clan gained three Qi Condensation cultivators in just four months!

This was an impressive achievement for any surrounding town or family.

While there was an element of fortune involved, opportunities favored the prepared.

It was the result of over a decade of planning and strategy by Yang Guanfeng and Elder Yu that led to the Yang Clan's imminent prosperity.

"Five Qi Condensation cultivators in one family! The Yang Clan's strength can now rank among the surrounding powers," Yang Guanfeng, as the clan leader, felt deeply gratified.

Having achieved the Qi Condensation Stage, the next step was to teach them spell techniques.

Based on the personalities and spiritual energy characteristics of the three, Elder Yu selected three spell techniques for their cultivation.

Yang Linghu, like the clan leader Yang Guanfeng, focused on the power of attack and practiced the "Savage Strength Art," a late Qi Condensation quality technique.

Yang Lingqing, being calm and intelligent, was given the slightly more challenging "Mud Dragon Technique," also of late Qi Condensation quality.

For Yang Lingrui, after careful selection, Elder Yu took out a treasured spell technique from his personal collection.

"Lingrui, this 'Gale Stream Technique' is a Core Formation early-stage spell technique, one of my prized possessions," Elder Yu said.

Yang Lingrui respectfully accepted the technique. Though it wasn't thick, it felt weighty in his hands.

He silently vowed to master this spell technique!

The addition of spell technique training brought more enjoyment to their daily cultivation.

Besides meditation, they could also spar with each other using their not-yet-proficient spells.

Each of the three children had their own strengths. For instance, in spell technique training, Yang Linghu progressed the fastest.

His temperament and innate physique were a perfect match for the "Savage Strength Art," and in less than half a month, he had already grasped the basics.

The power of the spell was remarkable. Even at the entry level, Yang Linghu could easily lift a hundred-pound boulder with one hand and strike down a fierce beast in the mountains with a single blow.

Seeing the three's cultivation on track, Yang Guanfeng and Elder Yu began to focus on family affairs.

From then on, Yang Linghu and Yang Lingqing would take turns infusing spiritual power into Chen Yang, activating his spirit-gathering ability to support the three in their cultivation.

After more than three months of development, the entire Yang Clan was thriving.

But just when things were going well, someone set their sights on the Yang Clan.

The Wang Clan of White Stone Town held a position similar to the Yang Clan's former status in Willow Leaf Town.

They had three Qi Condensation cultivators: one at mid Qi Condensation and two at early Qi Condensation.

The Yang Clan had now initially settled in White Stone Town, purchasing three shops and having an old mid Qi Condensation cultivator stationed there.

To be honest, as the leading family in White Stone Town, they were quite resistant to such external forces.

But since the Yang Clan had two mid Qi Condensation cultivators, the two families maintained a facade of harmony.

However, in the shadows, the Wang Clan was already planning to stir up trouble for the Yang Clan.
