Chapter 687: Chapter 531: Ksitigarbha’s Opportunity, Wang Yang Leaves Seclusion

With a wave of intense pain in his body and Primordial Spirit, that drop of extremely pure blood suddenly dispersed, leaving no trace of vitality.

He had failed, and this procedure was much more difficult than Wang Yang had imagined.

After all, the Primordial Spirit, the Power of a Saint, and the physical body, these three were originally independent beings, and now the attempt to fuse them together faced too many difficulties.

And although Wang Yang’s Primordial Spirit was vast, the failure of that strand of Primordial Spirit still caused him a bout of a headache, and his complexion instantly turned pale.

But Wang Yang did not give up because of this, as this was inherently a subtle and gradual cultivation method.

He separated out the Primordial Spirit again and passed it through the blood once more.

This time, Wang Yang’s movements became even slower, repeating the process over and over, becoming more cumbersome each time.

Even Wang Yang himself did not know how many times he would have to repeat it, nor did he know how much time had passed.

However, with the experience of "Treading the Seas with Leisure," Wang Yang was certain that cultivating the Pangu Immortal Body was not something that could be accomplished in a short time.

Finally, before Wang Yang even used the power of a Saint to compress it, that strand of Primordial Spirit and the drop of blood began to fuse.

This made Wang Yang very excited, cautiously enveloping that drop of blood and the strand of Primordial Spirit with the Power of a Saint.

Both of them reflected each other’s light and gradually fused into one.

Wang Yang then realized that to merge the Primordial Spirit into the blood, it wasn’t about applying pressure with the Power of a Saint, but rather letting them fuse on their own, little by little.

Although the fused blood seemed much thicker, it had become lighter.

The difficulty for Wang Yang was that this new drop of blood was being rejected by his original blood and couldn’t circulate throughout his body.

In the end, Wang Yang stored this drop of blood at the tip of his finger, marking a start, and continued to repeat the process.

...

The territory of the Pangu Clan in the Void could only be considered on the fringe, and reaching any city would take even a Saint a long while to traverse the Void, besides using the unique passageways of the Pangu Clan.

That Wang Yang had encountered someone from the Pangu Clan was purely by chance.

Had he not left his Minor World drifting in the Void, even spending a lifetime traversing it, Wang Yang would have found it difficult to locate on his own.

Meanwhile, in the Void, Ksitigarbha, who had been practicing ascetically within the hidden land of the Yang clan, once again left the secret chamber.

He greedily breathed in the fresh air outside, looking at the people of the Yang clan without any intention to speak.

The Quasi-Saints and Saints of the Yang family also kept their distance from him.

As a family that only became powerful thanks to the proliferation by an ancestor, they naturally paid little attention to the women of the family.

But thinking of what Ksitigarbha had done in the Yang Family during this period, everyone felt somewhat helpless.

Almost all the females in the family had entered that secret chamber, and Ksitigarbha would emerge from time to time, merely to let the corrupt aura dissipate.

Yet what puzzled people most was that Ksitigarbha was not cultivating in the secret chamber, but his realm had reached the mid-stage of a One-Step Saint.

To suggest he was practising absorption via the Yin to supplement his Yang, the women who exited after him each experienced their own enhancements.

If it weren’t for the occasional sighting of bodies being carried out of the secret chamber, if it weren’t for the expressions of pain on those bodies, that chamber might even become a desirable cultivation sanctuary in the hearts of the Yang clan’s women.

"Ksitigarbha Fellow Daoist, the Ancestor is looking for you!" Yang Aotian, as if timing it perfectly, ordered people to clean the secret chamber while speaking to Ksitigarbha.

"I’m on my way!"

Ksitigarbha did not say much, only Yang Aotian, watching Ksitigarbha who was still emitting a corrupt aura, couldn’t help but frown.

Some time had passed since the Demon Clan and the Buddhist realm came looking for someone, so Ksitigarbha dared to show his face in the Yang clan.

However, the Yang clan was nominally a subordinate of the Demon Clan, so even when Ksitigarbha went out, he was extremely cautious.

The most crucial point was, within the Yang clan, he would only come out when the Ancestor of Yang Clan summoned him, otherwise he would stay in the secret chamber, so much so that the Ancestor himself began to doubt whether such a person was still worth cultivating.

But as Ksitigarbha made a breakthrough to the mid-stage of a One-Step Saint, the Ancestor of Yang Clan became amiable towards him again.

Upon this emergence from seclusion, the Ancestor immediately had Yang Aotian notify Ksitigarbha to come to him.

Ksitigarbha soared over the city of the Yang clan like a rainbow, with most of the people looking at his figure with envy, yet none could achieve it.

Elsewhere, Ksitigarbha arrived at a valley on the Yang clan’s continent, where several figures were already waiting.

Stepping in, Ksitigarbha found five people standing in that valley.

All five of them were Two-Step Saints, including the Ancestor of the Yang Clan.

"Ksitigarbha is here, these are the ancestors of various families. I had you come today to meet them," said the Ancestor of the Yang Clan as the conversation between the few came to a halt.

All eyes were now on Ksitigarbha.

"Greetings, esteemed elders!"

Ksitigarbha’s aura was now subdued, making him seem no different from an ordinary monk.

As for the corrupt odor that Yang Aotian detested, that was nowhere to be sensed.

"Let me introduce you; this is the Lord of the Azure Dragon Realm, also known as the Azure Dragon Ancestor!" said the Ancestor of the Yang Clan, motioning to one of the elders, then proceeded to introduce each of them to Ksitigarbha: "The Ancestor of the Hua Clan, the Ancestor of the Liu Clan, and the Red Mountain Star Lord!"

"They, like the Yang clan, each have a city in the Void, though none are guarded by a Three-Step Sage, so we maintain a harmonious relationship!"
