Sovereign to Immortality

Chapter 340 – The Anecdotal Grotesqu

The night sky of the western mountain did not hide anything from the stars, just like the pairs of eyes of great existences that had existed since ancient times, attentively watching this boundless land.

Yang Junshan stood under the pavilion in his backyard and looked up at the starry sky, yet he was continuously calculating the date in his heart. That strange meteor night, it seemed to be not too far away!

The sound of footsteps slowly came from behind him. Yang Junshan turned around and saw Xu Lei walking towards him, bowing as he greeted, “Young Villa Master, you were looking for me!”

Yang Junshan immediately moved to the side and reproached: “Brother Xu, we grew up together, you and I, who can compare to this level of friendship? This courtesy of yours actually makes me, your brother, feel very uncomfortable, please do not do this again from now on!”

Xu Lei laughed and did not reply. Yang Junshan did not mind either, he pulled him to the pavilion and sat down, then said: “This time, inviting brother Xu to come, is truly something I need your help with!”

Xu Lei said in a serious tone: “Please give your instructions, I will do my best!”

Yang Junshan reached his hand into his sleeve and fished out a light green storage bag that had a fish that jumped out of the water embroidered in the bottom right corner. He placed it on the stone table in the middle of the pavilion.

Xu Lei’s gaze congealed, he recognized that this was the storage bag from the Yu Family’s fourth butler’s body, and said: “This is the standard set of storage bag s used by the Yu Family, there is a sealing array formation on top, if it is broken forcefully, not only will the storage bag itself be damaged, most of the things inside will be destroyed too!”

Yang Junshan pushed the storage bag in front of Xu Lei and said: “I heard that you’re a deacon within the Yu Family. I think we should be clear about how to open this storage bag!”

Xu Lei nodded his head. Taking the storage bag in front of him, he performed a few different seals in front of Yang Junshan and removed the seal on the storage bag one by one. Then, without even looking at what was inside, he once again pushed the storage bag in front of Yang Junshan.

Yang Junshan did not even look at the storage bag on the table. Instead, he chatted with Xu Lei for a while, and asked about the Xu family’s situation, saying that if there were any problems, he could directly look for him, and then, Xu Lei tactfully took his leave.

Before leaving, Xu Lei seemed to have thought of something, and said: “That day is the day that the Yu Family Manor is offering its offerings to me, the fourth steward originally wanted to bring over half of the villa’s harvests to return to my clan, but according to the time, he obviously received the order to silence me halfway, so Young Villa Master, this time, you should have had quite a good harvest!”

“Then I’ll be counting on Brother Xu’s blessings!”

Yang Junshan laughed out loud, and then laughed out loud, and said: “Looks like Brother Xu really knows a lot about the Yu Family. That large villa would earn a lot of money every year, to be able to bring back to our family would be a secret, I never expected Brother Xu to know about such a secretive matter so clearly!”

Xu Lei laughed bitterly and said: “Brother Yang, have you forgotten who my father is? “He is an official member of the Yu Family. Even though he is only of a side branch, the Yu Family still haigh level of recognition towards me!”

“That’s why they want to kill you even more. It’s not only because your mother died in their hands, but also because you know that they have many secrets!”

A trace of distortion appeared on Xu Lei’s face, and he said fiercely: “And my fourth uncle, the fourth uncle of the direct relatives!”

After sending Xu Lei off, Yang Junshan once again looked at the storage bag in his hands, and an additional trace of anticipation appeared in his eyes.

Previously, when he was in the Sunset Ridge’s mine, he had also snatched two storage bag from the hands of two Martial Realm Cultivator s who were causing trouble.

As the spirit energy seeped into the storage bag, the string used to tie the bag’s opening opened its mouth. Yang Junshan used his spirit sense to probe inside, and his expression immediately changed, ‘Four feet squared’, this kind of storage bag was very rare.

Yang Junshan was secretly impressed with the Yu Clan’s power, even the steward of the Yu Clan used such a good storage bag, and Xu Lei even said that the storage bag was standardized, which meant that there were still many of these storage bag in Yu Clan.

And amongst the Yang Family, other than Yang Junshan’s storage bag, the best one was the one in Yang Tiangang’s hands, which was also only four feet square.

Just by this rule alone, one could see the difference between the Yang family and the powerful Yu family!

Yang Junshan roughly counted them, there werotal of thirty-five of them, each of them being equivalent to ten jade coins. Just these thirty-five jade stones were equivalent to thirty-five thousand Jade Coins, and the loss that he had previously given Spiritual Master Chen Ji was immediately recovered, there was still a lot of money left over.

had once said that this farm waransfer point for the Yu Clan’s various cultivation resources. Presumably, these jade crystals were all obtained from the various types of trading and transportation of goods.

In addition to the jade crystal, there were also seven or eight jade boxes inside. All of them were pasted with spirit sealing charms. It was obvious that the items inside the boxes were also important.

Carefully ripping off the Soul Sealing Rune from above, the jade case opened. Yang Junshan gave a “Wu” sound and said: “High-grade spirit material, Brilliant Golden Stone. A good item.

After sealing the original in the jade box, he opened another one. “It’s another high grade spirit material. This should be ice jade, not bad not bad!”

The third and fourth jade boxes, all the way until the seventh jade box, were filled with high grade spirit materials, all of them were extremely precious, but unfortunately, they were all things that Yang Junshan did not need at the moment, and were why he was so excited about them.

When it was the last jade box, Yang Junshan removed the Spirit Sealing Rune with ease, he casually opened the jade box and looked inside with a surprised look, then revealed a happy smile, laughed “Haha” and said: “Qingtian Spirit Stone, this time the Mountain Monarch Seal has a chance to level up!”

After obtaining the Green Heaven Stone, Yang Junshan immediately focused all of his attention on the spirit material. There were many other ingredients among the storage bag, all of them were of excellent quality, there were even three bottles of spirit pills suitable for late stage martial arts realm cultivators, a few of them were quite exquisite talismans, a few small bags of them could produce high grade spirit grass seeds, ten different types of mid grade immortal spirits, etc. However, these things could no longer pique his interest.

He took fifteen of the jade stones, two bottles of spirit pellets, and two talismans. Among the high grade spirit materials, besides the Qingtian Spirit Stones, Yang Junshan also took the Golden Light Stones, and passed the rest of the items to Lao Yang, who placed them in the Yang family’s treasury.

After bidding farewell to Yang Tiangang, Yang Junshan returned to the Sunset Ridge’s mine overnight. Just as he arrived, he saw Lin Chengsi looking for him anxiously.

“Senior, did something happen?”

Lin Chengsi was startled for a moment, and then said: “That’s not true, but on the second day after you left, the eldest disciple of the Chen County Magistrate, Mr. Song Wei, sent someone to deliver an invitation, requesting you to come to his place as soon as possible after you return.”

“Didn’t he say anything?”

“Not really!”

Yang Junshan nodded and accepted the invitation card, then asked Lin Chengsi about the overall situation of the mine, as well as the situation in the entire Sunset Ridge.

Before leaving, Lin Chengsi muttered to himself for a moment, then asked: “Young Clan Leader, I wonder what happened to Zhang Huzi, I heard that for his son, Blacksmith Zhang even passed down his own mid-grade Artifact Forging Hammer to him!”

Yang Junshan replied with an “Oh” and said: “Are you always talking about the Cang Yu Stone?”

Lin Chengsi nodded his head: “That’s right, in this half a year or so, this old man had personally secretly mined this Firmament Stone ore and already accumulated a lot of ores. Although because of the barren mine veins, if we were to refine them, it would probably not be enough for a fist-sized piece of spirit material.

Yang Junshan pondered for a moment, and said: “Then we will temporarily halt the mining of the Firmament Stone Origin Mine, and talk about it after a while. Right now, other than refining the spirit material raw ore for the village, Zhang Huzi is also accumulating the spirit materials needed to refine his first tool.

“Oh, right,” Yang Junshan called out to Lin Chengsi, who was about to turn around and leave, then took out the storage bag from the Yu Family’s sleeves. However, the lower right corner of his expression had already been erased, and he passed it to Lin Chengsi, saying: “This storage bag is for senior, this is also what father meant!”

Lin Chengsi took the storage bag’s consciousness and checked it. His face revealed a look of astonishment, and he said happily: “This is truly a good thing!”

Formation masters like Yang Junshan, Spiritual Seeker, all kinds of formation setup tools like Yang Junshan, who had a lot of scouting equipment, and all sorts of different types, would usually have a soft spot for large scale storage bag s like him. Lin Chengsi had helped the Yang family quite a lot over the years, so when he left the Xishan Village, Yang Tiangang had instructed him to give this four foot square storage bag to Lin Chengsi.

The real main vein of the mines in the Sunset Ridge was actually not too far away from this branch of the Xishan Village, but the length of the mines in the main vein was very long. In the southwest of the mines in the Xishan Village, directly south of the lava lake, was the starting point of the mines.

However, this was precisely the thing that Yang Junshan had always felt was strange. After the main lode in Sunset Ridge was discovered, Yang Junshan had always thought that the three major sects’ conflict at the three counties’ border was actually because they were fighting over this lode.

Although the Heaven-Shaken Sect had moved the border a few miles south and temporarily controlled the area where the main mine was located, the other two counties were only a few feet away from the border.

In other words, a Martial Realm Cultivator standing at the borders of a Huyao County or a Ling Zhang County would be able to hit the miners at the main vein mining site of the Mengyu County with an Imperial Censor.

However, in the half a year since the main lode was developed, neither the Sirius Gate nor the Opening Spirit School had made the slightest movement at the three counties’ borders.

Could it be that they just stood there and watched Heaven-Shaken Sect take this huge mine for himself without doing anything?

This thought was something that even Yang Junshan himself felt was impossible to accomplish, especially for a sect like the Sirius Gate.

But if these two sects really did not make a move, then what was the reason behind them not seeing Heaven-Shaken Sect mining by their side?

“Haha, Youngest junior brother, you’re finally here!”

Yang Junshan had never revealed the news that he had levelled up to the late stage of martial arts realm before, but this time, he rode on a packhorse to the Heaven-Shaken Sect’s main vein mine. Obviously, Song Wei had received the news beforehand and was already waiting for him here.

“Senior apprentice-brother!”

Yang Junshan got off the Hunting Beast and cupped his fists towards Song Wei.

Song Wei then led him into the mine, and said while walking: “Junior is right on time, the sect is currently planning to set urotection array at the mine, after all, this place is too close to the border, but it’s a pity that the sect’s formation masters are lacking in manpower recently, so I recommended you to Junior Brother Qing Yi. You must give me all of your skills, don’t make me lose face!”
