Sun Xingyu was trapped by Lu Chen using a small-sized confinement array.
Before long, people began to arrive one after another.
The first to arrive were a group of Divine Travel Realm experts. They moved faster, and upon seeing the vast mountain from afar, they couldn't help but rush ahead, leaving the main group behind.
"This enormous mountain is brimming with abundant spiritual energy!"
"Indeed, the surging spiritual energy is continuously emanating from the mountain, making it an ideal place for us to cultivate."
"Have you all noticed that not only is the spiritual energy here of high concentration and purity, but the power elements within it are more complete and pure, distinct from any spiritual energy we've encountered before?"
"Yes, some of the power elements within this spiritual energy seem to resonate with me, making it easier to absorb."
The crowd muttered amongst themselves, their faces filled with shock and curiosity.
"Yang Fei, what is the deal with this enormous mountain? Could this be Earth's source of spiritual energy?" Huang Chengcheng couldn't help but ask.
Yang Fei nodded, "Yes, Master, my fellow Taoists from the Lingxiao Sect and I have already ventured into the heart of this mountain. The whole mountain is a huge spirit ore, containing vast amounts of spirit stones, spirit sand, and spirit crystals."
As he spoke, he took out a spirit stone from his storage bag and tossed it to Huang Chengcheng. Huang Chengcheng caught it and immediately felt the immense spiritual power radiating from the crystal stone, causing him both surprise and joy, treating it like a treasure.
Helian Zhan and others eagerly gathered around. Even without touching the spirit stone, they could sense its immense spiritual power from a close distance, each showing signs of envy or even greed.
They all wanted to claim it as their own.
Ouyang He couldn't hold back, "Yang Fei, is this a spirit stone?"
Yang Fei replied, "Exactly. In the language of the cultivation world, this is a spirit stone, rich in spiritual energy elements. Cultivators can absorb the spiritual energy within to aid their cultivation, making it the most vital cultivation resource in the realm."
Yang Wanli was shocked, "Are you saying the entire vast mountain is filled with such spirit stones?"
Yang Fei nodded, "Yes, according to the monitoring by my fellow Taoists from the Lingxiao Sect and me, there are vast amounts of spirit stones buried within this mountain."
Sssss...
The crowd drew in a sharp breath.
Just the quail egg-sized spirit stone in Huang Chengcheng's hand contained an abundance of spiritual energy so tempting, and yet there were vast numbers of such spirit stones buried in the entire enormous mountain. How could the crowd not be astonished?
"That's amazing! This place is even better than the Yunwu Mountain base, perfect for cultivation," Huang Chengcheng's eyes gleamed as he spoke to Yang Fei, "Yang Fei, I want to establish my Taoist sect here; what do you think?"
Yang Fei smiled, "If Master says it's good, then it's good. Although this mountain belongs to Earth, we discovered it first, so from now on, the entire Arctic Circle area where this mountain is located is the territory of our Divine Continent."
"Indeed, it should be so!"
"Haha, we were the first to arrive, so this place is ours. With such a treasure mountain, our cultivation realm is bound to improve significantly, and both our sects and aristocratic families can develop rapidly. From now on, the Yanhuang lineage will become the planet's true owner."
The top experts of the Hidden Sect had greedy looks in their eyes.
Yang Fei glanced at them, chuckled, and said, "It was I and my wife who first discovered this place. So if you want to cultivate here long-term, you must join us."
Mo Li, Chen Liangzhong, Zuo Wenjun, Mo Yunhai, and Qi Yan had already allied with Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang, so they had no objections. On the contrary, compared to the Langya Wang Family and Helian Zhan and others, they had a sense of superior preemption.
Cui Wanchi, Xie Guangyuan, and others who had earlier been persuaded by Zhu Tianshou from the first experimental zone to join the Yunwu Mountain base naturally didn't mind. They had long considered themselves Yang Fei's people, taking their cues from him.
The expressions of the Langya Wang Family members and Helian Zhan, Ouyang He, and Zhao Wannian changed significantly.
Clearly, they were somewhat resentful but lacked the courage to confront Yang Fei.
Yang Fei's power had already intimidated them.
Coupled with the might of the Heaven-devouring Divine Beast, even if those seven from the Lingxiao Sect didn't help Yang Fei, they now lacked the strength to contend with him.
Moreover, many of the Hidden Sect's top experts had already joined Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang.
Here, Yang Fei had absolute influence, calling on a large response. If they declared the occupation of this place and others wished to contest it, it would be tantamount to seeking their own demise.
At this moment, Wang Chunyang spoke up, "Yang Fei, I previously vowed eternal submission to you, but that was solely on behalf of myself, Wang Chunyang. Now, I wish to request that you accept the Langya Wang Clan and the forces dependent on us. I can guarantee that the Langya Wang Clan will never be of two minds regarding you, so long as the clan can find a place here."
Yang Fei smiled approvingly at Wang Chunyang.
This man, once arrogant before him, understood to bow and assess the situation when faced with a significantly stronger opponent.
He looked towards Wang Chunfeng and others, "What do you think yourselves? If you're unwilling to submit to me, you're free to leave. No matter how you develop on Earth in the future, as long as you don't provoke or oppose me, I will, for Brother Chunyang's sake, not trouble you. But the cultivation resources here will have nothing to do with you, and if anyone dares to steal them, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Yang Fei's words, though spoken kindly, were quite domineering.
It was essentially stating a point to everyone: This place was discovered by me, occupied by me, and all its resources belong to me, Yang Fei. If you want to access these cultivation resources, there is but one path—submission to me.
Only those who belong to me, Yang Fei, have the right to claim a position here.
The members of the Langya Wang Family all directed their gazes to Wang Chunfeng, Wang Chunjiang, and the decision-makers.
Wang Chunyang also looked at his two older brothers.
Wang Lei was especially tense.
Though he left the Wang Family back then, the blood of the Wang Family flowed in his veins, and he did not wish to see the Langya Wang Family doomed by offending Yang Fei.
"I, as the thirty-eighth family head of the Langya Wang Clan, vow that from today on, the Langya Wang Clan will forever serve and be loyal to Yang Fei. If this vow is broken, may the entire Langya Wang Clan be condemned by heaven and earth, and fall into irreversible calamity," Wang Chunfeng suddenly spoke solemnly to Yang Fei after contemplating for a long time.
Yang Fei laughed heartily, "Good, from now on, the Langya Wang Clan is part of us."
He waved a hand, pointing at the towering peak to the left front of White Jade City, "From now on, this mountain peak is called Langya Peak. I bestow it upon you, the Langya Wang Clan, so you can establish your family here."
The Langya Wang Family members were overjoyed.
This mountain was so close to White Jade City; it was undoubtedly a prime cultivation paradise. Stationed here, the Langya Wang Family could certainly thrive and grow strong over time.
Zhao Wannian could no longer sit still, hurriedly speaking to Yang Fei, "My Qingtian Sect also wishes to maintain eternal friendship with the Divine Continent."
Yang Fei chuckled, shaking his head as he looked at him, "That's not enough."
