Chapter 456 [Ranking Plan]_2
"The Dao Essence of this [Heroic People List] is even more crucial for late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators; it can basically allow them to directly surpass this threshold and reach the Golden Core Stage."
At this moment, among the Yang Family cultivators present, only Yang Qiangwei was in the late-stage of Golden Core. Yang Qianglin and Yang Qiangyuan were only in mid-stage Foundation Establishment, and with their ordinary talent... it was very challenging for the Yang Family to invest in this level of strategic resources.
Yang Qiangwei noticed everyone's gaze and smiled confidently.
"The 'Reverse Flow Technique' that Little Feng and I are cultivating is wondrous; in the future, when we reach a deeper level, we can share our realms. Everyone can consider Little Feng as his cultivation speed is very fast, and he still holds a [Wisdom Fruit]... greatly needing a supplement of Dao Essence."
Cultivation speed can be accelerated, but accumulating Dao Essence cannot be sped up. It requires a bit-by-bit comprehension and refining by Golden Core cultivators, otherwise even with abundant spiritual power, a late-stage Golden Core cultivator might not even defeat a mid-stage one who has comprehended more Dao Essence.
This is why some mid-stage Golden Core cultivators can reach the 25th level, while Elder Chen Tianxiang could only reach the 9th level... rumor has it that his mid-stage Golden Core cultivation was elevated using a strange item, and his Dao Essence is extremely thin.
In the Golden Core Stage, the realm cannot completely represent one's absolute strength; the amount of accumulated Dao Essence manifests in actual combat.
This is why every time the Flood Dragon Demon appears, it calls the wind and summons the rain, changing the colors of heaven and earth, while other ordinary Great Demons can't even defeat Human Clan cultivators of the same stage.
This lies in the Dao Essence, that Flood Dragon Demon is a high-rank demon, with extraordinary comprehension, mastering a vast amount of Water Technique Dao Essence.
An old-school Golden Core like Feng Yi is also incredibly powerful; back then, if it weren't for the severe adverse fortune influence from Yang Qiangzheng, drawing out the Heart Demon that Lei Zhen buried in him, even Yang Shi breaking his Time Skill wouldn't have led to such a defeat.
In that battle against the demon wind, any missing detail would have doomed the Danai Dynasty and the Yang Family.
Yang Genshuo still recalls it with great trepidation.
Yang Qiangwei voluntarily withdrew and gave Yang Feng a hand.
Because with her keen perception, she had already noticed the meaning in Yang Qiangjing's eyes...
Yang Feng is not of Yang Family blood.
Yang Qiangjing didn't want him to get this precious [Heroic People List] spot.
At this moment, the candidates were Yang Fu, Yang Fuqing, Yang Fujian, Yang Qiangjin, Yang Feng, and Baji.
Baji, taken in by Yang Fu as a steward and number one aide, and having established the Immortal Clan with his people under an eternal subordination contract with the Yang Family, is someone who can be trusted as completely as Huzi.
He spoke up: "I nominate the Yang Family Head..."
Yang Fu and Yang Fujian turned to him simultaneously, and Baji immediately corrected himself: "I recommend Brother Fu, Brother Fu has the highest overall strength, we need him to be the Yang Family's stabilizing force."
The other person he didn't mention, because whether it was Yang Qiangjin, whom Yang Fu designated as his successor or Yang Feng whom he watched grow up, he liked both very much, and they represented completely different things, so it wasn't convenient for him to comment.
But Yang Fu must be the primary choice. Baji believed that no matter what, the Yang Family must allocate resources to Yang Fu.
He felt uneasy seeing those three spiritual artifacts hanging on Yang Fujian... because he believed they should be with Yang Fu to maximize their utility.
Yang Fu was also the person with the highest comprehension and mental fortitude he had ever seen.
The reason he was willing to become a subordinate of the Yang Family was because of Yang Fu's charisma, he believed Yang Fu could lead him and his family toward prosperity.
Upon hearing this, Yang Fuqing looked at Yang Fujian.
This sharp-edged brother actually harbored a subtle fire within him; he was the City Lord of Bright City in the Danai Dynasty, and a chosen successor of Yang Shi himself, with martial arts talent surpassing everyone, constantly pioneering his own Dao.
He was proud and sharp.
However, Yang Fujian was not upset; he nodded.
"Elder brother should indeed be the first choice, this... is beyond doubt, I don't need it because although I practice spiritual and martial dual cultivation, my spiritual cultivation hasn't even reached Foundation Establishment, so this Golden Core Dao Essence is useless to me, I don't need to be on the list, but..."
What Yang Fujian said was true, but this is Golden Core Dao Essence! Accumulated... it would be greatly beneficial in the future!
Otherwise, with Yang Fujian's talent of five spirit roots nurtured by a [Life Divine Seed], he might remain stuck at the Foundation Establishment Stage for life.
No one knows what's the next realm after Nirvana, nor is there any documentation.
He needs to explore completely by himself.
"But my sister needs to preserve her third position, she needs to use points to maintain her rank, I suggest elder brother and my sister supply the person on the list with all the resources from our Yang Family."
Yang Fujian nominated the second position for Yang Fuqing.
Actually, emotionally speaking... Yang Fujian and Yang Fuqing grew up together, went through ups and downs, and have followed Yang Shi until today, that familial bond is thicker than that with Yang Fu's family.
Rather than giving it to others, why not lend a helping hand to Yang Fuqing?
"Little Jian, I..."
Yang Fuqing wanted to say something, but Yang Fujian waved his hand: "Sister, with your higher cultivation, it would be easier to deal with matters regarding the Demon Clan, which is extremely important to us."
Yang Fuqing had successfully operated a significant spy ring within the Demon Clan and had good relations with Da Xiong, serving as a mediator between the Human and Demon clans, crucially maintaining the current situation of the Danai Dynasty.
What Yang Fujian said wasn't wrong.
At this moment, Yang Qiangwei frowned.
He must help Yang Feng seize this opportunity.
"I believe we need to let those with higher talent and potential to obtain it..."

Yang Fu was also the person with the highest comprehension and mental fortitude he had ever seen.
