Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Chapter 1786: Chapter 1084: Spiritual Artifact Divine General Chessboard

After discussing the Dao for quite a while, Xuanzhen finally took his leave.

Once he left, Yang Zhenshan went to the rear hall, where Yu Qingyi had been waiting for him for a long time.

This time, his seclusion lasted for five years, and he hadn’t had a proper conversation with Yu Qingyi in quite a while.

In the warm pavilion, Yang Zhenshan held Yu Qingyi’s soft waist, listening to her gentle, detailed recounting of the events in the Life Realm Immortal Palace over the past five years.

In truth, not much had happened; the Life Realm Immortal Palace had been orderly in recent years, with the biggest event being Xuanzhen’s Core Formation, followed by various breakthroughs.

”Ming Hao has also made a breakthrough. I expect Yunxue, Yun Qiao, and Lin Zhan won’t take much longer to achieve theirs.”

”Chengye, Mingzhe, and Ming Zhao are also on the verge of breakthroughs. In two or three years, they can go into seclusion!”

”Only Chengmao is still lagging behind. Chengmao has been busy with affairs, causing his cultivation to stagnate.”

Yu Qingyi said softly.

Leaning on the soft couch, Yang Zhenshan pulled her closer into his arms, ”Let Ming Cheng take Chengmao’s place temporarily so Chengmao can focus on improving his cultivation.”

These years, Yang Chengmao had been in charge of managing Ziwei Tower. The larger the Spirit Origin Land, the more tasks he had, inevitably affecting his cultivation.

”Hmm, I’ll take care of that!” Yu Qingyi smiled brightly, ”The family has three new children with spiritual apertures! Haha.”

Yang Zhenshan’s eyes brightened, ”Three?”

”Yes, all tested last year. Zongping, Qingyu, and a girl, Yu Qiao.”

The Yang family has a generational trend, with males named in the order of Ming, Cheng, Qin, Ji, Zong, Qing, Shang, and females named in the order of Yun, Wan, Ruo, Qing, Yu, Chu, Xiao.

This naming sequence was set by Yang Zhenshan, but he didn’t establish further ones as descendants became too numerous, making naming difficult.

Especially since the Spirit Origin Land doesn’t only contain the Yang Zhenshan branch of the Yang family; there’s also Yang Mingwu, Yang Mingzhen, Yang Chengze, Yang Chengxu, among others. Even the former Lingxi Yang family now follows the Yang family.

With too many peers, naming became a hassle, so Yang Zhenshan no longer set any generational trends.

Of course, even if Yang Zhenshan doesn’t set them, others naturally will.

With the family growing large and branching out, the Yang family has split numerous times, so adhering to those irrelevant traditions isn’t necessary.

In recent years, the number of children with spiritual apertures emerging from the Yang family has significantly increased. To date, the Yang family has over twenty Immortal Cultivators, with Yang Jizhen naturally being the most advanced, followed by Yang Zongyuan and Yang Qingyu. The late-stage Qi Refinement practitioners include Yang Zongcai, Yang Qingtao, among others. For the younger generations, there are even more.

The three Yu Qingyi mentioned are all six-year-old children who get tested for spiritual apertures at that age in the Spirit Origin Land. Those with spiritual apertures are sent to Wuzhen Taoist Palace for cultivation.

Despite only being in seclusion for five years, Yang Zhenshan’s family has gained three children with spiritual apertures, indicating the current high occurrence rate in the Spirit Origin Land far exceeds previous levels.

”Take a day to bring them over so I can meet them; these children don’t know their ancestor anymore!” Yang Zhenshan said in vexation.

Yu Qingyi rolled her eyes at him, ”You’re constantly in seclusion; it’s no wonder they don’t know you!”

”It’s unavoidable!” Yang Zhenshan shook his head.

His seclusion lasts three to five years each time, and he has many tasks to accomplish, leaving him with no time to care for the Yang family’s descendants.

Children grow quickly; in the blink of an eye, several years pass, and they’ve grown up.

Plus, with so many descendants now, Yang Zhenshan is disinclined to organize family feasts, resulting in many being in their twenties or thirties without ever having met him.

”You should pay more attention to family affairs, but don’t neglect your cultivation. I still hope you’ll achieve the Golden Core Path!” Yang Zhenshan gently said, curling her hair.
