Upon hearing this, the ten Golden Core cultivators nodded, half understanding and half in confusion.

After finishing two pots of iced tea, feeling refreshed, Yang Qiangding clapped his hands:

"Let’s continue with our work, do what needs to be done, and meet here tomorrow."

Just as they were about to split up to gather information, a cultivator suddenly burst in from outside the teahouse and whispered a few words to one of the Great Cultivators inside. Subsequently, many seemed to have received a secret voice transmission.

For a moment, the teahouse was filled with restless commotion.

The teahouse owner, being well-informed, immediately used spiritual power to announce:

"Everyone, according to reliable sources, a newly discovered legendary land has been opened in the Moon Ascending Dynasty..."

This news spread instantly throughout the Immortal Martial Sect.

Yang Qiangding’s lips curled slightly: "It’s finally here, let’s go."

"Are we going to the legendary land, Young Master? Not looking for the Gongyang family anymore?"

"I bet that if the Gongyang family got the news, they would head to the Moon Ascending Dynasty as well..."

Yang Qiangding was waiting for an event that could attract most people’s participation.

So he could finally find the tails of the Gongyang family.

"Let’s hope the Gongyang family members are polite... It’s best if it can be solved with money."

As the most favored eldest young master of Yang Fushuo, and the heir to the Strange Pill Tower, Yang Qiangding learned from an early age a simple and straightforward truth: problems that can be solved with spirit stones are not problems.

Spirit stones allow him to have ten Golden Core Stage Great Cultivators as bodyguards.

Soon, the eleven of them boarded the treasure ship heading to the Moon Ascending Dynasty.

"Ancestor, Ancestor, Qiangding needs your help."

Yang Qiangding immediately called for the ancestor.

"I am here, speak."

Yang Genshuo happened to be looking at Yang Qiangding, ready to ask about their progress.

It was a serendipitous coincidence.

"Ancestor, I want you to check if there are any Gongyang family members on this treasure ship?"

Yang Qiangding knew the ancestor could see others’ names and identities, so he naturally took advantage of this. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

In such a major event, if the Gongyang family got the news in the city, they would most likely board the fastest treasure ship as he did.

Yang Genshuo glanced at the thousands of cultivators on the ship and shook his head:

"Qiangding, there’s no one with the surname Gongyang on this ship..."

"Hmm... as expected. After arriving in the Moon Ascending Dynasty, I might need your help frequently to check if any Gongyang family members are nearby. I must intercept them before they enter the legendary land."

"No problem."

Since the Yang family from the White Grain Warehouse merged, the pressure on Yang Genshuo’s overview decreased significantly.

He could easily spare some effort to oversee Yang Qiangding’s side.

Half a day later, Yang Qiangding and his group arrived at the Moon Ascending Dynasty.

Numerous cultivators had already gathered, and some of the first arrivals even started setting up stalls, much like a market.

"Check it out! Versatile magic treasures designed specifically for conquering legendary lands: can move mountains, overturn seas, subdue demons, seal spirits, command the gods, pluck stars, cut rivers, destroy cities, and open the heavens... the sword immortal’s choice! Buy it to avoid regret!"

"One ’Heavenly Mechanism Talisman’ available, can be a lifesaver at critical moments, heavy gold content, those who know understand, only one piece, highest bidder wins."

"Fellow cultivators who frequently visit legendary lands know many can’t allow external items inside, so... taking a high-quality fasting pill before entering is extremely important! A Fourth Grade fasting pill lasts for half a year!"

"Trained tiger demon, immensely powerful, meaning having an unyielding companion. Produced by the Danai Empire, guaranteed top quality, experts welcomed, amateurs don’t force."

The opening of a legendary land not only attracts many cultivators who want to take a chance but also numerous cultivators looking to sell their goods.

After all, entering an unknown place, the greatest fear is death... Once dead, all opportunities and savings become void.

Thus, at this time, cultivators spend generously.

The Heavenly Mechanism Talisman, usually priced at 700 mid-grade spirit stones, fetched as high as 2000 mid-grade spirit stones here.

Having purchased it, the cultivator seemed to have more confidence and directly entered the newly opened legendary land.

No one knew what was inside; entering was the only way to find out.

"I noticed something... the first batch of cultivators entering are mostly elderly, do you know why?"

Yang Qiangding asked his followers with a cheerful smile.

"I hadn’t noticed, but since you mention it, Young Master... it is true. The elderly seem bolder, many younger cultivators are hesitating."

"Could it be that the elderly have a more steadfast dao heart?"

"Because the elderly are nearing death, and have no choice but to take the risk. Without opportunity, only a slow death awaits them, but taking the chance might extend their life span."

A Golden Core cultivator clarified.

Yang Qiangding nodded: "Exactly... It’s either enter or die for them, there’s no other choice."

"No one can face their life’s end without fear..."

"In contrast, young cultivators consider many things, always thinking there’s enough time, more opportunities, yet feel guilty for not taking action, thus spending much time in indecision..."

Yang Qiangding’s words struck Yang Genshuo as highly philosophical.

"This Yang Qiangding... interesting, is he the philosopher of the Immortal Cultivation World?"

Continuing, Yang Qiangding said: "If I were from the Gongyang Immortal Clan, I would likely send out the young. Even with great confidence in their abilities, they wouldn’t rush in headlong. We’ll set up a stall selling elixirs here, waiting for their arrival."

"If they don’t come to an event of this scale, perhaps they’ve already left, and we’d need to buy new intelligence..."

Faultless logic, impeccable.

Yang Genshuo agreed.

For the next week, Yang Qiangding waited there, coincidentally selling some Strange Pill Tower elixirs he brought, earning considerable spirit stones.

Cultivators came and went, yet Yang Qiangding didn’t find those he awaited...

Meanwhile, Yang Qiangjin and Yang Min’s team advanced triumphantly, making rapid progress.

With absolute unity, they executed a dimensionality reduction strike on the minor factions at the White Grain Warehouse!

Places they dared not explore before were now breezed through.

Flowing corpses, mischievous mountain bandits, and spirits, as long as they weren’t Phenomenon Realm or Nascent Soul Realm, were simply slain!

With numerous puzzle solvers advising and controlled demon slaves and puppets serving as cannon fodder, the main force hadn’t lost a single one, except for a few unlucky puppets who died during exploration.

Along the way, they seized much grain, not only replenishing the batches taken by Zhong Yi in Guangning City but even having surplus.

After a week’s rapid march, a towering, imposing crimson city wall appeared ahead.

Exchanging glances, they recognized the place from the flag hanging on the wall...

"We’ve reached the Capital..."
