Myriad Spirits Immortal Clan

In the Sand Sea, at the Heavenly Phoenix Oasis, within Dragon Valley, a massive dragon-horn-shaped tree soared into the sky.

Beside the tree, a dragon palace stood quietly, naturally belonging to the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor, and the tree itself was the Heavenly Dragon Fruit tree retrieved from the Azure Sky Demon Emperor.

At this moment, three cultivators dressed in scarlet and azure robes were also inside the palace, their eyes filled with eagerness, looking at the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor in his yellow Taoist robe with respect and a hint of restraint.

These three cultivators were none other than the spiritual forms of the Three-Eyed Demon King, the Black Crow Demon King, and the Rhinoceros Deer Demon King.

"As for the key points, I cannot tell you, you just need to quietly wait for the opportunity to arrive. As for the techniques to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, you can inquire with your families. As for why I, this Emperor, am not telling you, you should be aware of some reasons, but rest assured, I will not restrict you in the slightest, and I even sincerely hope for your breakthroughs." The Earth Dragon Demon Emperor took out a pot of spiritual tea and poured a cup for each of the three beasts.

This spiritual tea was Enlightenment Tea. Although precious, the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor, as a Demon Emperor, could still share some. In recent years, the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor had also grown fond of drinking tea, which made him feel he could contemplate more.

The more he interacted with Ye Jingcheng, the more he felt he couldn't relax. If it were the Ye family of the past, he would naturally look down upon them, but Ye Jingcheng, this young man, whom he had watched grow up, had now made him feel that he had been left far behind.

Therefore, he was unwilling to waste any time or opportunity.

He knew that whether he could further advance his dragon bloodline or his cultivation depended entirely on Ye Jingcheng.

As for the Ye family, he no longer entertained any selfish thoughts. He would do whatever the Ye family asked him to do.

Now, even if the Ye family asked him to expend some vital energy to leave behind a dragon seed, he would not hesitate.

However, compared to the Ye family cultivators brewing tea, typically using a small amount of tea leaves to brew one to three pots of tea.

He used fewer tea leaves and diluted the spiritual water even more, so his teapot was as large as a basin.

Therefore, the spiritual tea appeared somewhat weak, and his pouring posture was a bit comical.

"However, I can mention that this time, the effect is highly likely to grant you a divine sense far exceeding your current realm. For example, Rhinoceros Deer, my suggestion is that you cultivate for a while longer."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, we understand." The Black Crow Demon King and the Rhinoceros Deer Demon King immediately nodded repeatedly, seemingly understanding the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor's meaning.

They realized that they might have inadvertently almost committed a major taboo.

After all, they were now demon kings of the Ye family and couldn't act as they pleased like in the Demon Beast Mountains.

Nor could they form private factions.

Seeing this, the Three-Eyed Demon King's eyes flickered imperceptibly before he finally nodded.

"Your Majesty, we understand, we will go and inquire with our families." The three drank the slightly weak tea and left together.

"Take these storage bags with you, don't leave them behind," the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor reminded them from behind.

The three then returned and took the storage bags.

After the three beasts left, the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor sat down to meditate again.

… …

The family ancestral hall, with Turtle Ancestor resting inside, and the Beast Communication Tower had also been released.

Ye Haicheng organized ten people to head towards the ancestral hall.

These ten were all in their early twenties, the newest family members to pass the inner hall assessment.

In front of the ancestral hall, green smoke still rose, but compared to the second-tier sandalwood incense used before, they were now using third-tier Profound Origin Azure Sandalwood.

The sandalwood smoke was thick and grand, like a dragon's luck soaring into the sky, with an extraordinary aura.

This green sandalwood not only helped the family elders with soul capture but was also a sign of respect for the Beast Communication ritual.

It was just that the Ye family didn't have much fourth-tier sandalwood incense at the moment; otherwise, the Ye family would have used fourth-tier sandalwood incense for the Beast Communication ritual.

Moreover, unlike before, when there were fewer family members communicating with beasts, now most of the family members communicating with beasts did so in groups of ten at a time, so it wasn't as if one person was doing the final check as before.

Of course, this didn't mean that a group of ten was more relaxed than before.

After all, before, it was Foundation Establishment or Violet Palace cultivators performing soul capture, but now it was Golden Core cultivators, coupled with the Ye family's increasingly profound formations, so family members with impure intentions or those whose hearts were not with the family would naturally be eliminated.

Thus, they would have no chance with the Heavenly Inner Hall.

It was just that now that the Ye family was the number one power in the Sand Sea, there were hardly any family members disloyal to the family, but there were quite a few selfish family members.

For these kinds of family members, the Ye family would similarly restrict their Beast Communication.

Cultivators needed to be selfish, but being too selfish was not suitable for the family and could easily lead to major mistakes.

Therefore, it was better not to let them communicate with beasts.

Hence, even though the Ye family now had nearly thirty thousand family members, only over twenty thousand had Ye family blood, and fewer than three thousand had communicated with beasts.

Among the Violet Palace cultivators, there were now several who had not communicated with beasts.

As time passed, the Beast Communication ended, and this time, eight out of ten people passed, and two failed.

After the Beast Communication ritual ended, Ye Haicheng contentedly cautioned each of the Ye family members about the inner hall and matters needing attention.

Among the eight who passed, one had two three-inch and two one-inch marks, three had two three-inch marks, two had one three-inch mark, and two had two one-inch marks.

Their talent in Beast Communication wasn't particularly good, but their innate talent in cultivation wasn't weak either.

Therefore, if they worked hard, the combination of the two would ensure that their future achievements would not be too low.

After letting the eight leave, Ye Haicheng remained in the ancestral hall, and Ye Xueliang and Ye Xuefan walked out from the side.

"It's a pity that none of the twenty people this time had Beast Communication marks above five inches," Ye Xuefan couldn't help but say.

"It is indeed a pity, but there are quite a few with two three-inch marks or more, so it's still not bad," Ye Haicheng nodded.

But then he looked at Ye Xuefan:

"Fourth Uncle, let Jingyu and the others come over. It's time to give those demon kings some hope."

"Yes, let's begin!" Ye Xuefan also nodded.

He waved his hand, and several jade slips were sent out. Before long, Ye Jingyu and Ye Qingfeng arrived.

"Qingfeng, you go first this time!" The three all knew about Beast Communication and Soul Injection, so there were naturally no other issues. After checking the Beast Communication marks, they could begin!

The order of starting was precisely according to the level of talent.

This ensured that there would be absolutely enough beast souls at the beginning.

As for whether there would be fewer beast souls later, and whether it would affect the Three-Eyed Demon King, it was naturally not within the scope of the Ye family's consideration.

It was expected that there would be enough. If there were truly fewer, then there was no way to avoid it. It was the Three-Eyed Demon King's fate, after all, he had more thoughts and should be placed last.

From the Ye family's perspective, the breakthroughs of the Black Crow Demon King and the Rhinoceros Deer Demon King were more in line with the Ye family's expectations.

However, the Three-Eyed Demon King's soul flame was powerful after all, and if he could break through, it would also be greatly beneficial to the Ye family, so if possible, they would still fully inject souls into the Three-Eyed Demon King.

Hearing this, Ye Qingfeng walked towards the Beast Communication Tower.

When she was in the Violet Palace realm, she didn't have Soul Injection, but when she awakened during Beast Communication, an anomaly appeared, and she herself wanted to see if that phoenix shadow would appear again.
