Two Foundation Establishment Cultivators, eight Golden Body Realm Martial Artists, plus more than ten Second-Order Mutant Beasts.
After Mutant Beasts advance to the Second-Order, their size often grows several times larger, like the Green Wolf, which in the First-order was only a little over a zhang long, but upon reaching the Second-Order, becomes over three zhangs long.
Similarly, the Golden Feathered Fire Crow, whose wingspan was only about four chi in the First-order, can actually exceed four zhang in the Second-Order.
This is no crow, itâs practically a Peng Bird.
The Cloud Tiger Cub is the same; a Second-Order Cloud Tiger Cub stands over two zhang high at the shoulder, truly a colossal beast.
As this terrifying group of giant beasts appeared, the entire Yang Family Town fell into silence, the frightful might making everyoneâs hearts tremble uncontrollably.
"What is this?"
"So many mutant beasts!"
"Theyâre all Second-Order mutant beasts!"
"Oh my god! Where did so many mutant beasts come from?"
Many couldnât suppress the urge to flee, retreating repeatedly, but more were standing frozen in place, as if seeing a ghost.
There was panic indeed, but it didnât cause chaos, because at that moment, the Yang family guards and the guards recruited by Yang Family Town were already maintaining order.
Yang Zhenshan led the crowd and flew up onto the backs of the mutant beasts, paying no attention to the peopleâs astonishment, and said calmly: "Letâs go!"
He and Yu Qingyi sat atop the back of the Green Wolf King, whose back was very wide; not only could they sit on it, even lying down was no problem.
Others also rode Second-Order mutant beasts, either individually or several sharing one mutant beast.
Like the Cloud Tiger Cub, which each person rode separately because although it was large in size, it was very suitable as a war steed.
One after another, these giant beasts flew into the sky, magnificently heading off towards the Illusion Moon Sect.
As soon as they disappeared into the horizon, Yang Family Town exploded into an uproar.
"Those were all Second-Order mutant beasts! This is too terrifying!"
"The Yang familyâs power is actually this strong!"
"No wonder someone said the Yang family is the number one family; truly these words are not false!"
"Did you notice earlier? Those few seemed to be Martial Gods!"
Some were astonished, some excited, and others felt fortunate.
It must be said that the Yang family had quite a reputation in the Sea of Spirit, but that renown was all due to Yang Zhenshanâs fame, mainly from him humiliating the Xuanqing Sect at their mountain gate.
As a result, the attitude of the Twelve families towards the Yang family was very courteous, unwilling to provoke Yang Zhenshan, who has Spiritual Artifacts and is an Immortal Cultivator.
But this was only the fame of Yang Zhenshan alone, and the Yang family itself had no significant prestige externally.
Everyone might think that the Yang family was just a newly risen family, with a shallow foundation, unable to compare with those families with long legacy.
So the reverence towards the Yang family was only directed at Yang Zhenshan individually.
However, the uproar wasnât limited to Yang Family Town; as Yang Zhenshan led a group of mutant beasts towards the Illusion Moon Sect, each town they flew over erupted in an uproar.
And when they arrived at the Illusion Moon Sect, the Illusion Moon Sect similarly exploded into an uproar.
Yue Qing stood outside the Illusion Moon Sect, staring at those Second-Order mutant beasts and Golden Body Realm Martial Artists, equally stunned.
"Master Yang, youâve truly given me a huge surprise!" she looked at Yang Zhenshan, her expression complex as she spoke.
Before, she might have thought that the White Jade City was somewhat illusory, but now she no longer doubted its existence.
Over ten Golden Body Realm Martial Artists, plus over ten Second-Order mutant beasts â this force is already quite terrifying.
The Illusion Moon Sect canât produce such a force.
The difficulty of cultivating Second-Order mutant beasts is no less than cultivating a Golden Body Realm Martial Artist.
The Illusion Moon Sect now has only three Second-Order Illusion Moon Foxes.
Does the Illusion Moon Sect not wish to cultivate more Second-Order Illusion Moon Foxes?
No, itâs that the Illusion Moon Sect doesnât have enough resources for cultivation.
Why can Spirit Origin Land cultivate so many Second-Order mutant beasts? Thatâs because Yang Zhenshan is willing to spend resources.
Various spirit medicines and spiritual fruits need not be mentioned, and thereâs Spiritual Spring Water, which is most basic.
The key is the Beast Blood Pill and Mixed Grain Pills; the Beast Blood Pill can purify a mutant beastâs bloodline, while Mixed Grain Pills can enhance a beastâs absorption of spiritual energy.
Plus other elixirs, all enabling the mutant beasts of Spirit Origin Land to grow quickly.
Not to mention others, just the Beast Blood Pill is not something Illusion Moon Sect can lavishly squander because they cannot refine it.
The Beast Blood Pill is merely a First-order elixir, but itâs an Immortal Cultivatorsâ elixir, originally used by Immortal Cultivators for feeding spirit beasts.
Years ago, Yang Zhenshan bought some Beast Blood Pills at Feather Tower, and later he simply started refining them himself, and then Zhang Hexuan managed to refine them, after which Spirit Origin Land had enough Beast Blood Pills for cultivating mutant beasts.
The value of Beast Blood Pills isnât high, but they are indispensable for cultivating mutant beasts.
And in the Sea of Spirit, the only force capable of refining large quantities of Beast Blood Pills is Spirit Origin Land.
Yang Zhenshan chuckled and said, "Sect Master, should we set off?"
Yue Qing glanced at Yang Zhenshanâs side and then at the Illusion Moon Sectâs team behind her, realizing in that moment that her sect felt somewhat threadbare.
This time the Illusion Moon Sect dispatched quite a force as well, with Yue Qing leading personally, Liu Yue as the person in charge, accompanied by elders Yue Ming and Yue Su, along with three Second-Order Illusion Moon Foxes.
This force was actually not weak, but compared to the Yang familyâs team, it seemed somewhat shabby.
"Letâs go!" Yue Qing could say nothing else; she had witnessed the affluence of Spirit Origin Land.
Actually, Yang Zhenshan wasnât about pretending to be rich either, as these years Spirit Origin Land has been in a period of rapid development, with both Martial Arts and Immortal Cultivation rapidly advancing.
