Chapter 1511: Yu Province's Yu Clan

Xiang Shaoyun spent the next few days seated atop Money while processing Venerable Yuan Shi's inheritance. The inheritance included two strands of God Realm energy and information about the alien races. The God Realm energy was actually God Realm primal chaos energy left behind by Venerable Yuan Shi, and it contained the profundity of primal chaos. Without the Primal Chaos Physique and comprehension of the profundity of primal chaos, one would have no way of refining the two strands of energy.

Although Xiang Shaoyun did not have the Primal Chaos Physique, he had the Primal Inception Physique, which was even a tier higher than the Primal Chaos Physique. Furthermore, he had comprehended the profundity of primal chaos. That was also why he wasn't affected by the Wumo Pass's restrictions. The restrictions were set in place by Venerable Yuan Shi to only not suppress those with the Primal Chaos Physique, allowing suitable candidates to enter and obtain his inheritance. As for those without the Primal Chaos Physique, even if they could pass the trial, they would only be able to obtain an alien inheritance instead of Venerable Yuan Shi's inheritance.

Xiang Shaoyun's strength would definitely grow considerably after fully refining the two strands of energy. He could also comprehend the energy to start building foundations for the Rebirth Realm.

As someone who had lived two lives before, he had more confidence in entering the Rebirth Realm than regular Saints. Moreover, he had already forged a god soul. With the two strands of God Realm energy, he would be able to step into the God Realm without encountering any bottleneck in the future.

At this time, Xiang Shaoyun's gaze landed on the two trees in his astral cosmos sea. The gold tree sapling had grown to over 10 meters in height. Its golden leaves made it look dazzling. It was growing strong and healthy and had already left the sapling stage. The other tree had also grown considerably. It constantly emanated pure life force and would occasionally glow in nine colors after absorbing primal inception energy, looking incredibly mysterious.

"When the Nine Star Pagodas' construction finishes, I'll plant the gold tree in the sect, making it the sect's guardian tree," Xiang Shaoyun decided.

The gold tree was an emperor-grade plant, but it had become different from other gold trees after his primal inception energy had nourished it. Perhaps the gold fruits it produced in the future could be sovereign-grade fruits. There was also a possibility that it would evolve into a saint-grade tree.

As for the other tree, he had always suspected that it was a life tree. But after the little tree grew somewhat, it did not seem like a life tree. Its leaves were similar in color with primal inception energy as it constantly glowed, looking incredibly divine.

"I'll probably know what tree it is after it grows more," muttered Xiang Shaoyun.

He then shifted his gaze to the incomplete black yin pearl. He found that under the nourishment of death energy, the pearl had become a true black yin pearl emanating an extraordinary sense of power. It had grown enough that it could already enhance his strength. Moreover, he could constantly nourish the pearl with his death energy, allowing him to utilize the pearl while maintaining the pearl's condition.

For Xiang Shaoyun, the black yin pearl was only good for enhancing his Black Yin Magnetic Field. After he completed his Black Yin Magnetic Field, he would take out the black yin pearl and pass it on to someone else who needed it more.

As for who needed the pearl more, he had decided that Devil Concubine was that person. As the owner of a Yin Yang Physique, if she could find a light-elemental pearl to work alongside the black yin pearl, Devil Concubine would be able to greatly enhance her Yin Yang Physique. For now, Xiang Shaoyun kept his plan hidden from Devil Concubine. He would handle it after he settled his matters at the Yu Clan.

The group traveled without using any teleportation formations. After about 10 days, they arrived at the Yu Province. The Yu Province was located at the center of the Western Desert and was the province with the thickest ambient energy in the region. There were hundreds of cities in the province, all of them subservient to the Yu Clan.

As an ancient influential clan, the Yu Clan was extremely powerful. In fact, if they decided to start up their own dynasty, about one-third or even half of the Western Desert would instantly become their territory.

However, the Yu Clan had always acted cautiously. They only maintained their hold on the Yu Province and had never expanded their rule. They constantly nurtured their own and grew silently, awaiting the perfect time to rise in power with all their accumulated strength.

At present, there were signs that the entire dominion was going to sink into chaos. The Di Clan had left seclusion and proposed marriage with the Yu Clan to form an alliance that would split the entire Western Desert among the two clans. The higher-ups of both clans had reached an agreement, and the marriage was something they were determined to complete.

From how the Di Clan had won the acknowledgment of a clan as powerful as the Yu Clan the moment they left seclusion, one could only imagine how powerful the Di Clan was.

After reaching the Yu Province, Xiang Shaoyun's group headed toward the Yu Clan.

The Yu Clan occupied two locations in the province. One was the outer courtyard where their branch families resided. The outer courtyard was also the face with which the Yu Clan faced the world. A regular person would only know about the outer courtyard and be unaware of the second location, the inner courtyard. That was where the members of their main family resided and cultivated.

Xiang Shaoyun had learned of the Yu Clan's location during his previous life. Thus, he went straight to that place. Within the Yu Province was a beautiful location with a fine lake, lush vegetation, birds, animals, and numerous mountains with tops covered by clouds tinged with sunset hues. This place could calm one's mind and accelerate a cultivator's progress.

Of course, the place did not look too special when the rest of the dominion was taken into consideration, but a formation grandmaster would be able to see that everything in it was covered by a formation. Thanks to the formation, a regular person would immediately lose their way upon entering.

This place was none other than the entrance to the Yu Clan's inner courtyard. Only Yu Clan disciples with the Yu Clan token would be able to ignore the illusionary formation, step inside, and witness the true inner courtyard.

Numerous dragon veins dotted the landscape, while the air was filled with a thick draconic aura that blended with the ambient energy, forming an environment rich in energy. One could also see numerous volcanoes spitting thick plums of flame and smoke into the air, which would then transform into the phantoms of a phoenix. The combination of dragon and phoenix in the air formed an environment rich in the auras of the dragon and the phoenix, creating a holy land of cultivation with countless miraculous sights to behold.

Over 10,000 buildings were built all over the place, housing tens of thousands of the Yu Clan's main family members. Just with this place alone, one wouldn't be able to deny how powerful the Yu Clan was.

Including their branch members, the Yu Clan had at least a million members. And if their subordinate organizations were taken into consideration as well, they would be able to instantly field a massive army of powerful cultivators.

This was the strength of a super clan, a strength no ordinary tier-7 and tier-8 organizations could compare with. Their deep accumulation ensured that they would prosper for an eternity, remaining an organization no ordinary person would dare provoke.

That day, Xiang Shaoyun's group arrived before the Yu Clan's inner courtyard's illusionary formation.
