Chapter 88 - 87 My Ge Family Leaves No Stone Unturned

Chapter 88: Chapter 87 My Ge Family Leaves No Stone Unturned

Danai Dynasty, Yulong County, Emerald Bamboo Forest.

Spirit Plant Immortal Clan, Ge Family.

Family Head Ge Xiangying, holding a blue jade bottle in his left hand and forming a spell in his right, continuously absorbed the faint innate Wood Spiritual Energy that had been born in the Emerald Bamboo Forest over the past 10 years into the small jade bottle.

The green Spiritual Energy turned into thin lines that floated up towards his hand and finally gathered into a wisp of pure innate Wood Spiritual Energy.

“Innate Azure Wood Spiritual Energy, achieved!”

Ge Xiangying stored the jade bottle in his storage ring, feeling quite content.

This Innate Azure Wood Spiritual Energy was one of the foundational aspects of the Ge Family, obtained once every decade.

In the past, it was with this Innate Azure Wood Spiritual Energy that the old ancestors of the Ge Family entered the Qi Refinement Stage, which ensured the long-lasting prosperity of the Ge Family’s immortal clan. They held the key to entering the Qi Refinement Stage, and most descendants who practiced the Wood Cultivation Method successfully entered the Qi Refinement Stage.

Besides producing a wisp of innate Wood Spiritual Energy every ten years, cultivating Spiritual Objects in this part of Emerald Bamboo Forest also yielded twice the result with half the effort, with a good portion of the Ge Family’s hundred-year foundation being gained from this land.

However, these years had not ventured outside of Emerald Bamboo Forest; the Ge Family was still a small local immortal clan and had yet to produce anyone who had reached the Great Cultivation at the Foundation Establishment Stage.

“Achieving the Foundation Establishment Great Dao… how difficult it is, whether my Ge Family’s hundred-year foundation could exchange for a Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object for my uncle?”

Ge Xiangying was very worried about this. He had been the family head for 40 years already. Although the Ge Family had developed somewhat, there had been no significant changes, they still lived guarding their own small plot.

“Spirit Planting, after all, is the bottom layer among the Hundred Skills of Cultivation. Success this time must carve a new path for the Ge Family.”

“18 years have passed, and finally, I have found the opportunity again!”

After collecting the innate Wood Spiritual Energy, Ge Xiangying headed towards the Ge Family council hall, where all the core members of the Ge Family had already gathered.

“Family Head!”

Everyone stood up, showing great respect for the family head.

Although Ge Xiangying’s talent was mediocre, currently only at the sixth layer of Qi Cultivation, his strategies and keen insight were sharp tools for the family.

“Be seated.”

“This gathering was called to continue a significant matter that was not completed before.”

“Uncle Ge Junyi has left seclusion, advancing to the eighth layer of Qi Cultivation, his strength profound. He ranks among the top ten even among the inner sect disciples of Xuan Stone Sect and also oversees the crucial task of collecting tributes for Xuan Stone Sect. With his strength and position, he can completely dominate the Yang Family, and we are also on legitimate grounds!”

“Previously, under the protection of Bai Heyu, the Yang Family had not paid the offerings for many years, and the sector leader of Xuan Stone Sect places the highest priority on tributes from all areas. Even if others wanted to speak for them, they wouldn’t have a justification.”

“This strike is a must-win for us!”

“Once we acquire the Grain Avoidance Cake recipe, our family will be the provider of spiritual food for Xuan Stone Sect. With the harvest of Spiritual Grain in Emerald Bamboo Forest, earning ten thousand Spirit Stones a year is not beyond possibility!”

Hearing the family head’s speech, full of emphatic tones and prospects for the future, everyone could not help but nod.

“Ten thousand spirit stones a year… My Ge Family could rise to be the number one immortal clan in the Danai Dynasty.”

“That top-tier Spirit Beast, the Cloud Sea Deer, we wouldn’t need to spend so many years’ savings; we could buy one each year.”

“From now on, my Ge Family will rapidly rise, and the future could indeed be open to establishing our own sect…”

While everyone was pondering the bright future of the family, a middle-aged cultivator who looked 80% similar to Ge Xiangying chuckled.

“What if people do not comply? Kill them and steal the recipe? We are all disciples of Xuan Stone Sect, even from Thunder Peak, aren’t you afraid the sect will blame your family? In my opinion, since uncle is already at the eighth layer of Qi Cultivation, he shouldn’t get involved in these bad deals, better to focus on cultivation and achieve Foundation Establishment as soon as possible to truly help our Ge Family.”

Ge Xiangying felt a headache coming on every time his brother Ge Xiangshu opened his mouth.

He was irresolute and harbored unrealistic fantasies in his heart.

However, his words did indeed prompt a lot of thinking among family members, so Ge Xiangying had no choice but to patiently explain.

“I’ve been observing Qingshi County Workshop for four years, and there are no more backers for the Yang Family. What qualification does a Mortal Master have not to comply? Uncle practices Wood Element Poison Cultivation, he could make them wish for death without the release of death, no one could stand it! When the time comes to hand over to Xuan Stone Sect the recovered offerings, naturally nobody could refuse.”

Ge Xiangshu shook his head: “His family has accumulated quite a lot of spirit stones over these years, who knows if he has a trump card?””

“Haha! If he dares to openly resist, then it’s even better. The disciples from the Sacrificial Hall will naturally join forces to flatten the Yang Family, and I actually hope he does just that.”

“Aren’t you afraid that uncle might be schemed against by his tactics?”

“I, the Ge Family, have exhausted our family’s heritage to obtain the Cloud Sea Deer for uncle. Let alone him, even a cultivator at the Qi Cultivation Perfection can’t catch up. I have considered his safety long ago, little brother! I have thought ten times more than you, this time I have planned without omission, there’s no possibility of losing!”

“Hmph! You just can’t farm the Spirit Field honestly, always fighting endlessly. Sooner or later, you’ll bring the Ge Family’s century-long foundation to ruin.”

“The path of Immortal Cultivation is all about competing! Winning the competition means soaring high!”

Ge Xiangshu left with a flick of his sleeves, while Ge Xiangying’s strategy won the support of most of the family members.

This time, the Ge Family members equipped Ge Junyi with all the powerful magic treasures and talismans from the family, just to ensure the capture of Yang Shi.

This was the greatest opportunity for the family.

“Even if you have a Second Grade Defense Magic Array, uncle could still break it.”

…

Yang Genshuo was hurrying through his meal when he perceived Yang Shi’s call for help and immediately sent over his character card.

“The Ge Family really are persistent…Alright, Yang Shi hasn’t even gone to settle accounts with you, and here you are showing up again.”

“Seeing Bai Heyu dead, you think you’re up to it now, huh?”

“A Qi Cultivation Eighth Layer Wood Element Poison Cultivator…So this is the strongest your family has to offer? I wonder how he compares to Yang Shi who has absorbed the essence of Demon Beasts?”

Four years ago, Yang Shi returned from the Xuan Stone Sect and easily killed Xiang Pihe, a Fifth Layer Water Practitioner. Now, four years had passed, his body had doubled in strength, and he had absorbed the talents of three Demon Beasts.

Yang Genshuo believed that even an Eighth Layer might not necessarily defeat Yang Shi now.

“However, Yang Shi should indeed go and find the Martial Saint of the Danai Dynasty now… It would be best if he could figure out how to advance to the next realm.”

Now, from the character card, Yang Genshuo couldn’t see Yang Shi’s strength at all, as it still showed only “Innate Grandmaster.”

When Yang Shi heard Ge Junyi’s provocation, a flicker of killing intent flashed in his eyes.

But he didn’t rush to act.

Instead, he just coldly watched Ge Junyi.

“Your Ge Family’s insidious ambitions never die… Over the years, I have almost forgotten the events of the past, and even considered giving your family a chance if you, like a decade ago, settled down.”

“Unfortunately, you’ve squandered that opportunity.”

“Hahaha!” Ge Junyi seemed to have heard the funniest joke: “You? An Innate Grandmaster, hahaha~ Are you planning to kill me from laughter so you can escape?”

Yang Shi shook his head and simply changed the topic:

“Since you wish to gauge my Yang Family’s Spirit Field, come on then, the offerings my family lacked over the years, we will naturally make up for it.”

But the way he looked at Ge Junyi was like looking at a dead man.
