Myriad Spirits Immortal Clan

As the Winter Solstice approached, the red lanterns under the eaves of the shops began to sway, casting flickering light.

A few withered leaves flew from afar, landing in various parts of the courtyard, adding a touch of desolation to the gray bricks and black tiles.

Ye Jingcheng pushed open the door, feeling the wind on his face, but his eyes held a hint of joy.

Five days had passed since he had secluded himself to refine pills. In these few days, he had refined two batches of Bone-Melting Pills, each yielding three pills, and two of them even had pill patterns, which was exceptionally smooth.

In addition to the spiritual pills, he also inspected the Stone Spirit Grotto.

Based on the situation of the Five Poison Bees, he estimated that one day of the Stone Spirit absorbing the outside world was enough for the grotto to sustain life for more than ten days. Even if he and the Golden Scale Beast went in together, this consumption would not change much.

The consumption of spiritual energy was considerable, but this situation was greatly improved after he buried many spirit stones.

Now, inside the grotto, the Golden Scale Beast was constantly using the Earth Thorn Technique, firstly to practice the application of the spell, and secondly to test the strength of the grotto.

If there were any problems, he could also detect them in time.

At the same time, he opened the grotto in his room and was fully absorbing spiritual energy and air. He estimated that once it absorbed enough, he could hide inside for several days or half a month without any problems.

The only thing to worry about was that the Stone Spirit would be picked up by someone.

Although the Stone Spirit would not have any spiritual energy fluctuations when closed, the Stone Spirit's body was extremely hard, and the material was extraordinary, so it was still relatively easy to be discovered.

Of course, if it was to hide from the dangers of妖兽, it was a very good solution.

"Jingcheng, you're out of seclusion." Ye Jingli happened to come out of his room at this moment.

At this moment, he was more calm and less impetuous, holding a new magical artifact in his hand, which seemed to have just been refined, and there was still some residual heat from the demon fire on it.

"Sixth Brother, where are Third Uncle and Fourth Brother?" Ye Jingcheng asked.

"Third Uncle is on the second floor of the shop. He is now personally selling second-order spiritual pills." Ye Jingli nodded and replied.

Then he walked to Ye Jingcheng's side, looked around, and transmitted his voice to Ye Jingcheng.

"Jingcheng, I think there's something wrong with Fourth Brother. Keep an eye on Fourth Brother these days. I told Third Uncle, but Third Uncle ignored it. Even Second Brother didn't say anything?"

After Ye Jingli finished speaking, he took out a mirror and gave it to Ye Jingcheng to check.

"This is a mirror I recently refined. It can detect the spiritual energy fluctuations of cultivators. Fourth Brother's spiritual energy is much stronger."

"Sixth Brother, you have done a great service. I will tell Third Uncle about this." Ye Jingcheng took the mirror and praised.

Then he told Ye Jingli not to publicize it.

Ye Jingcheng walked through the courtyard and came to the front yard. Unlike the back yard, which had several wooden houses built, the front yard had many stone tables moved in for the Ye family members to rest here.

Of course, more people were helping in the pill shop. As the Winter Solstice approached, more and more people came to the Chu Ye Pavilion to buy spiritual pills.

Among them were family cultivators, and also many rogue cultivators.

Each time there was a large-scale expansion, some rogue cultivators would join the family cultivators in the name of temporary offerings, so that they could also get a share of the spoils in the expansion.

After all, this time entering the Taihang Mountains was not like the last time in the Jade Dragon Valley, which only landed on the periphery, and the resources were not very abundant.

This time, they were going to the vicinity of the Crimson Cloud Peak of the Three-Eyed Demon King, where there were countless resources and spiritual medicines. Even if they didn't enter the secret realm, there were still many kinds of spiritual medicines and treasures.

Therefore, even the cultivators in Taichang Fang City, as long as they thought they had some strength, would basically participate.

In addition to selling spiritual pills, the Ye family would also recruit some manpower, but in Taichang Fang City, the Ye family's reputation was not very big, and Ye Haicheng was a newly promoted Zifu cultivator, so not many people came.

On the contrary, the Chu family next door was quite successful in recruiting people.

In the courtyard, Ye Jingyu was also walking around the room in a decent manner, greeting other Ye family members from time to time, but if the real Ye family members were here, they would find that Ye Jingyu was still a little unnatural at the moment.

He always wore a spirit-isolating robe, only revealing a pair of eyes and a plain face.

"Fourth Brother, are you adapting recently?" Ye Jingcheng asked.

"Adapting, Jingcheng, if you have something to say, just say it." 'Ye Jingyu' looked a little puzzled.

This 'Ye Jingyu' was naturally the corpse Daoist of the Heavenly Corpse Sect. As early as after Ye Jingcheng's Stone Spirit was opened, the latter took the Bone-Melting Pill and transformed into Ye Jingyu's appearance, mixing into the Ye family cultivators.

The disguise could only be done before the expansion. When they arrived at the Taihang Mountains, the real people would be constantly supervising the entire cultivator team.

Any slight movement would be noticed.

Of course, this 'Ye Jingyu' was hesitating at the moment because of Ye Jingcheng's attitude.

Ye Jingcheng at this moment was too confident, which made him feel a trace of unease.

But he didn't know where this unease came from.

He chose the Ye family, firstly because the Ye family's strength was not particularly strong, with only one newly promoted Zifu, and only three remaining Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Secondly, Ye Jingcheng had a handle in his hands.

Even last time, when his clone saw Ye Jingcheng, the latter didn't have this feeling.

"There's nothing wrong, I just think that Fourth Brother's cultivation has improved again." Ye Jingcheng took out the mirror and showed it to Ye Jingyu.

He vaguely reminded the latter.

Although other cultivators didn't know much about Ye Jingyu, if the change in cultivation was too outrageous, it would still arouse suspicion.

Cooperating with the people of the Heavenly Corpse Sect was also dancing on the edge of an oil pan.

The latter nodded repeatedly, and Ye Jingcheng left the courtyard and went to the second floor of the shop.

Entering the second floor, Ye Xingliu was introducing the pill formula to another Foundation Establishment cultivator. Ye Jingcheng didn't disturb him and just watched from the side. After that person left, Ye Jingcheng called out:

"Third Uncle."

He took out a pill bottle and handed it to Ye Xingliu with both hands.

Inside the round jade bottle were three second-order Bone-Melting Pills.

With these three Bone-Melting Pills, their body shape and appearance could be changed twice.

Ye Xingliu looked at the pills and carefully examined them. After a while, he showed a satisfied smile.

"As expected of the number one alchemist in my Ye family."

"Third Uncle, you're praising me too much. How can I be the number one?" Ye Jingcheng shook his head. He wouldn't admit this. There were many alchemists in the family's Hidden Peak, such as Ye Xuefu, whose alchemy skills were above his.

He even suspected that there were third-order alchemists.

It's just that in the Ye family, as long as your strength hasn't reached the highest level, you will never know how much the family has hidden.

"It's good that you're out of seclusion. We're leaving in three days. There's a Foundation Establishment exchange meeting tomorrow. Jin Yutang, your eldest brother, and Chu Yanqing have all sent you an invitation." Ye Xingliu took out three palm-sized jade book invitations and gave them to Ye Jingcheng.

"If you spend anything, you can use the spirit stones of the shop!" He added.

"Thank you, Third Uncle. Aren't you participating, Third Uncle?" Ye Jingcheng took the jade book invitations, but he only took two, and left the remaining one for Ye Xingliu.

While speaking, he took out the spiritual tea on the table on the second floor of the shop and poured a cup for Ye Xingliu.

"No, I have to attend a secret meeting for the division of the area. This time, many people only see the benefits of the secret realm when attacking the Crimson Cloud Peak of the Three-Eyed Demon King, but in fact, it may not be possible to take it down." Ye Xingliu said with a wry smile.

The reason why the demon race in the Taihang Mountains is so famous is not because the Taiyi Sect wants to raise demons to respect themselves.

It is because many demon kings in the Taihang Mountains have extremely terrifying strength and bloodlines.

At that time, there will inevitably be a bloody storm.

Otherwise, the Taiyi Sect may not really let so many immortal cultivation families participate.

"By the way, Mo Hongwen of the Mo family is also participating this time. This person's character is very different from his name. You can get familiar with him in advance!" Ye Xingliu reminded.

"You should also pay attention to the Xu family. This time they have come with more than ten people, almost all of their hidden Foundation Establishment cultivators."

Ye Jingcheng nodded when he heard this. The Mo family's troubles were basically eliminated, but for the sake of insurance, it would be better to get rid of this Mo Hongwen as well. That way, not only would no one in the Mo family remember the beast tide, but they would also decline day by day.

As for whether the Taiyi Sect would support new Zifu or Foundation Establishment families in Taihang County, it had nothing to do with the Ye family.

"Third Uncle, I also want to learn about the Turtle Ancestor." At the end, Ye Jingcheng transmitted his voice to Ye Xingliu.

When he said this, his eyes also showed great interest.

After all, the Turtle Ancestor's cave has been around for a long time.

Ye Haiyi often used it, and Ye Xingliu naturally knew a lot about it.

However, Ye Xingliu was extremely puzzled at this moment.

He didn't know what Ye Jingcheng meant by mentioning the Turtle Ancestor, but after a pause, Ye Xingliu generously took out the spirit beast bag from his waist and hung it on Ye Jingcheng's waist.

"The Turtle Ancestor is here. You can ask anything you want. The Turtle Ancestor can answer." Ye Xingliu said.

Ye Jingcheng was overjoyed when he saw this, took the spirit beast bag, and went to his house.

Entering the house, he carefully patted the spirit beast bag and input some spiritual light.

The next moment, a white-haired Xuan Turtle the size of a basin walked out from inside.

"Turtle Ancestor, this junior Jingcheng has met the Turtle Ancestor." Ye Jingcheng cupped his hands.

He still respected this Tai Cang Turtle very much.

After all, it was the family's town spirit beast, and it was also a Zifu Great Demon.

"Little doll, what's the matter?" The Turtle Ancestor's voice seemed very old, but Ye Jingcheng heard a bit of deliberateness, as if he was pinching his throat.

Of course, Ye Jingcheng remained calm on the surface.

"Turtle Ancestor, this junior has obtained a piece of cave stone. May I ask Turtle Ancestor, what are the defects of this kind of cave?" Ye Jingcheng pointed to a huge stone in the next room.

He didn't want to hide the matter of the Stone Spirit, and he couldn't hide it. He only wanted to find out the defects of the cave now.

Ye Jingcheng had looked for this kind of information in the family before, but there were very few records.

The Tai Xuan Turtle originally looked old-fashioned, but after seeing the Stone Spirit next to it, it couldn't help but become much faster, and the turtle's head also stretched out a bit more, looking at the Stone Spirit up, down, left, and right.

This made Ye Jingcheng have a bit more of his guess in his heart. The Turtle Ancestor in front of him may not be very old among turtles!

This made him a little puzzled. If the Turtle Ancestor was not big, then why wouldn't his treasure book light up now.

The Turtle Ancestor's talent is definitely good.

And if he remembered correctly, it had lit up before.

Perhaps spirit beasts that have signed a blood contract cannot be included in the treasure book.

Ye Jingcheng guessed with certainty in his heart.
