Myriad Spirits Immortal Clan

White tea mist swirled and filled the entire second-floor shop.

Ye Jingcheng poured a cup of spiritual tea for the old man, offering it proactively, and then watched him leave.

Ye Xingliu glanced at Ye Jingcheng with some surprise, then smiled softly.

"The spiritual herbs have been selling well recently, it seems your alchemy skills are getting stronger and stronger."

"Third Uncle is too kind."

Ye Jingcheng smiled and shook his head, not responding.

He didn't know if Ye Xingliu had recognized him, but he had recognized that the old man in the isolation robe was his ninth grand-uncle, Ye Xuefu.

That's why he specifically offered a cup of tea before he left.

He didn't know if Ye Xuefu came just to deliver something, or if he also wanted to check on his alchemy progress.

But unfortunately, today, because the Coagulating Gold Fruit and other treasures were of great importance, he couldn't show it to Ye Xuefu.

Otherwise, he really wanted to tell him that he could now stably refine even second-tier, high-grade elixirs, and even second-tier, top-grade elixirs were not very difficult.

Shaking off his unrealistic thoughts, he looked at the jade slip. As expected, it contained pill formulas, but not just one, but a full seven.

These seven pill formulas were Fire Beast Pill, Gold King Pill, Wood Essence Pill, Earth Return Pill, Ren Water Pill, Gold Tempering Pill, and Spirit Tempering Pill.

The first few pill formulas, as the names suggest, were five familiar elixirs for improving cultivation, while the latter two, one was an elixir for enhancing the physical body, and the other was for accelerating the refining speed, which could be considered attribute-less elixirs for improving cultivation.

Moreover, these seven pill formulas had two things in common: first, their main materials were not spiritual herbs, but the inner cores of demon beasts; and second, all the pill formulas were for second-tier, high-grade elixirs.

From this, it could also be known that these pill formulas should have been found in the Azure Cloud Sea.

The Ye family has been in the Azure Cloud Sea for more than ten years now, and it has obviously gained a firm foothold. Only in the sea area are there many demon beasts, allowing cultivators to rely on the inner cores of demon beasts to refine pills.

However, Ye Jingcheng also discovered that the elixirs from these sea area pill formulas probably had more pill toxins than elixirs refined mainly from spiritual herbs.

After all, spiritual herbs are born from nature and absorb the essence of spiritual energy all day long, so naturally they have fewer pill toxins than the inner cores of demon beasts.

But for Ye Jingcheng, these elixirs were not a big problem.

He planned to use these elixirs for his four spiritual beasts. He himself would only take one or two when breaking through.

Even if there were some pill toxins, his physical body would automatically transform them, and if that didn't work, he could just take some spiritual honey.

As for demon beasts, they inherently followed the law of the jungle, and their menu has always included all living beings except themselves.

Taking elixirs refined from the inner cores of demon beasts not only had no side effects, but may even have a promoting effect.

So the pill toxins of these pill formulas were not a big problem for him.

Moreover, the pill formulas that the family brought him were like sending charcoal in the snow for him at this moment.

Currently, he had many demon beast corpses and inner cores in his storage bag, but he didn't have many pill formulas.

Of course, there were also some instructions in the jade slip, but they were mostly some precautions about the few people in the market, and besides that, Ye Jingcheng and others were asked to pay more attention to the Azure Cloud Iron Crystal.

The Ye family's teleportation array to the Azure Jade Sea was becoming increasingly unstable, and almost every so often, it needed to be sacrificed with some Profound Cloud Iron.

Ye Jingcheng nodded, then took the spirit beast bag.

He found that the spirit beast bag contained many demon beast inner cores, and among them, there were mostly second-tier water attribute demon beast inner cores, and fewer fire attribute ones.

Ye Jingcheng smiled when he saw this, which could be regarded as a reward from the family.

It was also a signal.

The Ye family would focus on supporting him in the future.

"Third Uncle, please take a look at this pill formula."

Ye Jingcheng took the jade slip and showed it to Ye Xingliu again.

The other party didn't want to look at it at first, but when he saw Ye Jingcheng say this, he became a little curious.

The Ye family's development in the Azure Cloud Sea was almost entirely done by the Ye family's Hidden Peak, so even though Ye Xingliu was the head of the Ye family's Soaring Cloud Peak, he didn't know much.

After reading the jade slip, Ye Xingliu nodded without saying much.

But perhaps he was a little disappointed, after all, it was all pill formulas inside, and there were no secrets.

"Drink the spiritual tea together, this Cloud Floating Tea is used to entertain second-tier cultivators."

Ye Xingliu said.

This Cloud Floating Tea was the spiritual tea of the Buqing Li family before, but later, after Buqing Valley was occupied by the Ye family, this Cloud Floating Tea also became the Ye family's spiritual tea.

Although the tea fragrance was not as good as Welcoming Spring Tea, the spiritual energy was much stronger than Ye Jingcheng's Welcoming Spring Tea.

Even if he drank a few more sips, he could add a bit of spiritual energy to his cultivation.

After all, the former was a first-tier, high-grade spiritual tea, while his Welcoming Spring Tea could only be said to be barely first-tier, low-grade.

So if he had time to go back, he still wanted to plant a Cloud Floating Tea plant in his Stone Spirit Cave.

After drinking with Ye Xingliu for a while, Ye Xingliu told Ye Jingcheng to continue refining pills.

Now they had accepted the pill refining task, and if Ye Jingcheng didn't go to refine pills, it would arouse suspicion.

Upon hearing this, Ye Jingcheng handed over most of the refined Jade Soul Pills to Ye Xingliu, then walked out of the house.

But as soon as he left the pavilion door, he saw that Chu Yanqing had also appeared in front of him.

Today, Chu Yanqing was wearing a green dress, with a jade hairpin in her hair, and her dark hair hung down on one side, making her face even more delicate. She seemed to have carefully dressed up, appearing quite charming.

Even Ye Jingcheng was stunned when he saw her.

Not to mention, this Chu Yanqing was a bit willful and had a strange temper, but her appearance was definitely in the top two among the female cultivators he knew.

The only trouble was that the female cultivators of the Chu family were also the direct descendants of the Chu family, and it was not impossible for them to become the head of the Chu family in the future.

Ye Jingcheng wanted to avoid her, but he couldn't find any reason. Not to mention that the Ye family and the Chu family were allied families, Chu Yanqing had helped the Ye family many times both inside and outside the secret realm.

Ye Jingcheng didn't consider himself a good cultivator with a big heart, but he wouldn't be too cold and ruthless.

"What, Master Ye, are you so busy? I am also a customer of the Ye family, and I also want to customize elixirs!"

Chu Yanqing said, with a hint of teasing and a hint of anger.

Her delicate nose was raised slightly, appearing quite charming and cute.

"If Fellow Daoist Chu wants to refine elixirs, then of course, you and I are originally related families."

Ye Jingcheng also nodded in agreement.

The latter directly took out a jade slip and a storage bag.

Ye Jingcheng was immediately stunned.

He was also a little surprised, wondering why Chu Yanqing was looking for him to refine pills. He initially thought Chu Yanqing was joking.

"Please, Master Ye, refine one with pill patterns, this pill has many side effects."

Chu Yanqing added.

As soon as these words came out, Ye Jingcheng also focused on looking at the jade slip.

Soon, he understood what kind of pill it was, it was a Profound Water Pill.

This kind of elixir could be considered the most loved and hated elixir among pills.

This is because the elixirs refined from these pill formulas are extremely violent. Most cultivators find them very effective for breaking through realms, even using them as obstacle-breaking pills.

However, many cultivators who take them end up seriously injured.

Chu Yanqing wanted him to refine pills with pill patterns to reduce the side effects.

However, this Profound Water Pill is a Tier 2 mid-grade elixir, and this was the first time he had encountered a request for a customized elixir with pill patterns.

"Don't worry, I won't let you refine it for nothing. I can also refine a Tier 2 high-grade magical artifact for your Ye family. Also, this pill formula is free for you, and I've prepared five portions of the materials!"

"Furthermore, I can give you three months!" Chu Yanqing added again, seeing Ye Jingcheng's troubled expression.

"Alright, I agree, but regarding the pill patterns, I can only try my best," Ye Jingcheng nodded and agreed.

However, he was a little surprised that Chu Yanqing was actually a cultivator who mainly practiced water-attribute techniques.

After all, Chu Yanqing was a refiner, and she had released fire-attribute magical artifacts quite a bit during battles.

"Then bring them here," Chu Yanqing extended her slender jade hand.

Her fingers were like flawless white jade, extremely beautiful, without any calluses from forging, as one would expect from a refiner.

The most obvious one was Ye Jingli.

However, Ye Jingcheng was stunned by her outstretched hand.

"The materials for refining magical artifacts, you have a lot of them after this secret realm, right? Comparable to a late-stage Foundation Establishment Master Ye!" Chu Yanqing said.

Upon hearing this, Ye Jingcheng couldn't help but feel a headache. Here it comes again.

Chu Yanqing liked to probe him the most, but she didn't know that knowing secrets came at a price.

However, Ye Jingcheng, thinking that he did indeed have a magical artifact to refine, took out a piece of Five-Colored Snake skin, along with a lot of Armored Beast scales, and finally a lot of Crimson-Patterned Cloud Iron.

Most of these materials were obtained by him in the secret realm. The former had excellent concealment, and the Armored Beast's scales were even harder than the Golden Scale Beast's scales.

"Just a robe to conceal my figure, but it should be able to change shape at will, and it should be extremely simple to input spiritual power!" Ye Jingcheng said.

Anyway, Chu Yanqing had made a request for pill patterns, so he would also make a few requests now.

And these requests he made were not only for himself, he also thought that if the Golden Falcon put on a robe that concealed its figure.

Falling from the sky at high speed, probably few cultivators could react.

"Boring," Chu Yanqing, seeing that Ye Jingcheng didn't respond to her probing, lost interest and left.

Ye Jingcheng wouldn't stay any longer either, and returned to his room to start his alchemy career.

Coming out for a trip, he thought that he could finally cultivate properly, but now it seemed that the task of refining pills was even greater.

… …

On the other side, Chu Yanqing also returned to her inner courtyard. She stared at the stone table in the courtyard, a little dazed, with a few more strands of worry on her brow.

An old man walked out from inside.

"Third Grandfather, there is still no news about Aunt," Chu Yanqing cast a formation, enveloping the two of them within.

Upon hearing this, the old man's expression also worsened.

Logically speaking, the refining order they placed should be settled by now, and Chu Xiyu had just broken through to the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment not long ago, so she shouldn't be in closed-door cultivation.

"Third Grandfather, did something happen to Aunt?" Chu Yanqing asked anxiously, seeing that the old man didn't answer.

"Don't make wild guesses. Maybe Xiyu is in closed-door cultivation. She is the wife of Superior Mingyuan, who is said to be able to compete for the Golden Core Pill, so naturally nothing will happen to her. Moreover, the Taiyi Sect has gained a lot this time, so it's normal for Superior Mingyuan to reward Xiyu with some treasures," the old man asserted directly, seeing Chu Yanqing's expression change.

Then, seeing that Chu Yanqing seemed to want to say something, he continued to add.

"You have to seize the time to cultivate recently. You are a water-attribute acquired spiritual body, but you have been pulled down a notch by the Ye family boy next door."

Faced with the old man's words, Chu Yanqing immediately pouted.

"Third Grandfather, he is so much older than me, and he is also a spiritual body. I guess he is a fire-attribute spiritual body, otherwise his alchemy skills wouldn't have grown so fast."

"Moreover, he established his foundation earlier than me, and his cultivation is higher than mine, which is normal."

"This time, when he refines the elixir, I will be able to know what attribute of spiritual energy his technique is. I don't believe that he is the legendary Four Spiritual Roots. At the very least, he should be a Dual Spiritual Roots like me."

Seeing this, the old man didn't speak anymore, just smiled slightly. They were naturally proud of Chu Yanqing.

A spiritual body cultivator, even in a Golden Core family, is considered a core member.

And the Chu family has Xiyu in the Xi generation and Yanqing in the Yan generation, how could they not be moved by these old things.

Chu Yanqing wanted to say more, but found that the old man's eyes had already looked towards the sky at some point.

There, was a patch of crimson Red Cloud.

Never dimmed.

… …

Ye Jingcheng returned to his room and also took out a jade slip to start researching the Golden Scale Pill.

Compared to the Tricolor Cloud Deer, the Golden Scale Beast's cultivation is still higher. Adding some Golden Scale Beast and Armored Beast inner cores, he can refine Earth Return Pills, and maybe the Golden Scale Beast's cultivation can catch up as soon as possible.

After all, among his Four Aspects, the weakest one has already become the Earth Aspect.

After studying for half a day, he also looked at the refining insights of the Tier 2 Jade Unicorn Pill and the Tier 2 Crimson Flame Pill.

After everything was prepared, he directly started the furnace.

As the crimson flames swept past, the entire Three Qian Tai He Furnace was submerged in spiritual fire.

The spiritual shadow was also instantly activated. He didn't know how many times he had done the perfect nurturing of the furnace, and now he could do it with ease.

When the nurturing of the furnace was successful, he also took out the spiritual herbs for the Golden Scale Pill and began to put them in one by one. After nurturing the furnace, it was melting the herbs.

This time, he was cautious. Although he had studied this Tier 2 Golden Scale Pill many times, it was, after all, the first time he was refining it, and the complexity of the pill formula was definitely at the strength of a Tier 2 top-grade elixir.

The alchemy method he used was also the Six-Part Alchemy Method.

Although the advantage of this method is that it produces fewer elixirs, it is stable and rarely goes wrong.

Plus, the Crimson Flame Fox's fire control is becoming more and more exquisite today.

The entire alchemy process was also proceeding in an orderly manner.

A day passed, and in front of him, a rich fragrance of pills had already begun to float out. Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng also breathed a sigh of relief.

The pill furnace also began to operate at high speed, reaching the final stage of extracting spirituality.

"Rise!" Along with the final wave of his hand, the lid of the furnace flew up, revealing two golden pills inside.

One of them even had half a pill pattern. Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng was stunned for a moment, but soon a look of joy appeared on his face.

He had never refined pill patterns for this kind of bloodline advancement elixir before.

Completing the elixir today would allow him to test the difference between having pill patterns and not having pill patterns.
