Myriad Spirits Immortal Clan

On Sky Shadow Peak, Chu Yanqing sat beneath the apricot tree in front of her cave dwelling, watching Ye Jingcheng diligently preparing spirit fish cuisine in the distance, occasionally glancing over with a smile.

Her eyes were filled with warmth.

She turned her head to look at the apricot tree, whispering her thanks in a voice Ye Jingcheng couldn't hear.

“Thank you, Fourth Grandpa…”

In her eyes, she naturally had to thank Ye Haiyun. After all, the connection with the spirit apricot was because of this very apricot that she had successfully emerged from the Violet Palace Heart Demon Tribulation.

Moreover, this spirit apricot had also witnessed their love.

Each year, its spirituality increased. Even though she knew this was the result of the spirit vein's continuous advancement, she still wanted to believe that Ye Haiyun was still watching over them.

“Have some double fish cuisine made with star-eating fish and black sesame fish!” Ye Jingcheng placed the spirit fish cuisine down and carefully picked pieces for Chu Yanqing. When Chu Yanqing turned around, her bowl was already full.

This made Chu Yanqing purse her lips, clearly feeling somewhat unaccustomed.

“This is too much…”

However, Ye Jingcheng still saw a deep joy in Chu Yanqing's slightly narrowed eyes.

Sometimes, what one is unaccustomed to isn't necessarily what one dislikes.

On the contrary, it might be something one has been anticipating for a long time.

“This time, let's pick spirit apricots together. I heard the spirit fruits in the desert are even sweeter!” Ye Jingcheng said with a smile, patting Chu Yanqing's head and pointing to the apricot blossoms, which were blooming in a full circle of white on the spirit apricot tree.

Chu Yanqing nodded, then praised the spirit cuisine.

The two of them sat on Sky Shadow Peak, overlooking the entire outline of the Sky Phoenix Oasis, as well as the lingering shadows of the desert on the horizon.

The Sky Phoenix Oasis was vast, with many peaks and many county-level mortals.

Furthermore, the Ye family's Beast Valley was now taking shape. From time to time, spirit beasts soared into the sky, roaming in the air or galloping through the desert.

At this moment, Ye Jingcheng couldn't help but feel a sense of感慨 (gan kai - mixed feelings with a touch of sorrow).

He suddenly realized that it had been a long time since he had been so quiet, disregarding his cultivation and simply enjoying the scenery.

The family's cautious advancements, Zhang Jia's targeting, and the Taiyi Sect and Qinghe Sect's constant pressure had actually been weighing on his mind for quite some time.

“Brother Cheng, if the Yan Kingdom is untenable, we can simply withdraw completely. We have a teleportation array, so there won't be any problems!” Seeing Ye Jingcheng looking somewhat dazed, Chu Yanqing thought of the discussions in the council hall.

She also thought of the Chu family, which had been harmed by the Taiyi Sect and the Jin family's alliance due to their growing ambition.

Given that the Ye family also had the Azure Cloud Nunnery, she felt that it was time to give up some things, which would actually be better.

“Yes, yes, I understand!” Ye Jingcheng smiled slightly and nodded.

Of course, he was still very troubled by Lingyun Peak, the several market towns, and the black sesame fish caravan.

The people of the Taiyi Sect simply wouldn't give the Ye family a chance to retreat unscathed. He could only hope that the Earth Dragon Demon King would break through to the Nascent Soul stage as soon as possible. Then, even in the Eastern Region, the Ye family wouldn't be an easy target.

As for the Azure Cloud Nunnery, although Violet Palace Jade Liquid had been sent, the Ye family would naturally avoid using it if possible.

Ye Jingcheng continued to pick food for Chu Yanqing. After finishing the spirit cuisine, they sat together, drinking spirit tea, watching the sunset, and watching the moon rise.

The desert's red sun was perfectly round, and the blood-red afterglow filled the sky, while the moon was even brighter.

The two couldn't help but snuggle closer.

East rising and west setting was, in itself, a kind of natural romance.

… …

Inside the cave heaven, after spending a few days with Chu Yanqing, Ye Jingcheng returned here.

After all, if he continued to stay, Ye Jingcheng would feel uncomfortable, and Chu Yanqing would also feel uncomfortable. Compared to mortals, cultivators had much better bodies.

Even while pregnant, practicing martial arts was still possible, and the chances of problems were not high.

As soon as he entered the cave heaven, he saw Stone Spirit running over, muttering. It pointed at the malachite stone spirit.

“Master, it's too stupid! It's not even as good as Jade Ring Rat!” Stone Spirit said, puffing out its cheeks.

This made Ye Jingcheng pause in surprise.

Peach Wood Wood Sprite also smiled brightly, watching the show from the side.

“That's normal. You were even more stupid than it back then. You need to be more patient. Peach Wood Wood Sprite wasn't like you back then!” Ye Jingcheng said quickly.

The malachite stone spirit could advance five times, which was also related to his own cultivation of the Savage Desolate Overlord Body Secret Canon, so he paid more attention to it.

“Was I that stupid?” Stone Spirit was somewhat dumbfounded when it heard this.

“Master, how about I teach it? I guarantee I'll teach Stone Spirit to wholeheartedly produce golden water for the master…” Peach Wood added at the right time.

“Cough cough, Stone Spirit should give it a chance. Peach Wood, you should focus on bearing peaches. In addition, you can absorb more wood essence as appropriate!” Ye Jingcheng quickly stopped it. Peach Wood's words were becoming more and more outrageous.

After letting the Wood Sprite and Stone Spirit go about their business, Ye Jingcheng looked at the crimson flame fox in the distance.

At this moment, after the soul injection, the crimson flame fox had also gained a lot. When it saw Ye Jingcheng coming, it cried out loudly. Within the fire furnace-like spirit shadow on its brow, cyan, purple, gold, yellow, and red five-colored spirit flames were constantly rotating.

Although it didn't speak, Ye Jingcheng already knew that the crimson flame fox was telling him that its spirit flame conversion had improved a lot.

In the future, when using Azure Sun Flame with Purple Flame Heart Flame, it wouldn't hurt its eyes as much as before.

Its alchemy strength would also greatly increase.

“I know you can do it!” Ye Jingcheng tapped the crimson flame fox's head, then walked to the side, preparing to refine pills.

This time, Ye Haicheng and Ye Xueliang had both given him some spirit herbs.

Now he had finally collected all the advancement pills for the third-order star pear wood, and the star pear wood itself had reached the peak of the second-order. After swallowing them, breaking through to the third-order was a certainty.

Ye Jingcheng was even looking forward to whether the advanced third-order star pear fruit could further improve the Star Illusion Eye.

In addition to collecting the third-order star pear wood pills, he had also collected the spirit herbs for the third-order Dream Devouring Pill, with the only thing missing being the essence blood of a corresponding attribute third-order spirit insect.

Among the fourth-order advancement pills, the Golden Scale Pill of the Golden Scale Beast had collected two main ingredients and many auxiliary materials, with one main ingredient and the essence blood of a fourth-order Qilin-blooded demon king missing.

The main material for the Red Flame Fox's Tier 4 advancement pill was complete, but there were plenty of auxiliary materials. In the Sand Sea, besides earth-attribute spiritual herbs, fire-attribute spiritual herbs were the most abundant.

Water-attribute spiritual materials were the rarest, so even though the Jade Kirin蛟 was most suitable for advancement, Ye Jingcheng had no way to help.

Ye Jingcheng could only hope that after the beast tide ended, the Ye family could change their identity and re-establish themselves in the sea area.

He would go to the Heavenly蛟 Sea to see if he could find the spiritual materials for the Jade Kirin蛟 to advance.

As for the Five-Colored Cloud Deer and the Golden Falcon, Ye Jingcheng did not think about gathering materials for their advancement pills, after all, the two beasts were still on the way to breaking through the peak of Tier 3.

They were still some distance away from Tier 4.

And now that Ye Jingcheng was a Tier 4 alchemist, refining the Star Pear Wood recipe was particularly easy.

In less than two days, he had already obtained two portions.

At this moment, the spirit child transformed from the Star Pear Wood spirit was obviously a little depressed during this period. After all, the remaining Star Pear Woods had been transplanted to Heavenly Shadow Peak and were being taken care of by Ye Jingyu and Ye Xinghan.

Only it was left in the cave heaven. Now it only stayed next to the Flesh Ganoderma spirit, always grabbing the big guy transformed from the Flesh Ganoderma spirit.

The Flesh Ganoderma spirit was obviously not as intelligent, so it was always being lectured by the Star Pear Wood spirit.

But at this moment, upon seeing the advancement spiritual liquid, it instinctively walked up to Ye Jingcheng, its curious eyes constantly looking around.

Because of the Star Pear Wood, its transformed spirit shadow had extremely beautiful starry eyes, like a dazzling star.

After watching for a while, it called out to its master.

"Master, what is this..."

"It's for you. Work hard on your cultivation. Your other six Star Pear Wood elders are looking forward to the day you break through to become a demon king!" Ye Jingcheng said, looking at the Star Pear Wood spirit's big starry eyes.

"Thank you, Master!" The Star Pear Wood spirit quickly took it and scurried back to its main body. Now its main body was already quite large, more than two zhang tall. Compared to other Star Pear Wood spirits, it was still a bit smaller, but it was young and had more potential.

It quickly swallowed it in a few gulps, looking just like a child. And after swallowing it, sure enough, starlight flowed and its aura began to change.

Ye Jingcheng estimated that when the Star Pear Wood successfully advanced, it would probably be a Tier 3 wood spirit.

Ye Jingcheng was immediately satisfied and began to refine the Purple Mansion Jade Liquid again.

The Ye family currently already had the Purple Mansion Jade Liquid: Ye Jinghu, Ye Haiyu, Ye Haiyan, as well as Ye Xueliang and Ye Xingsu.

But there was also Ye Xingyu, who was breaking through the peak of Foundation Establishment, as well as Ye Jingfeng and Ye Jingli, who were in the late stage of Foundation Establishment, all of whom were expected to break through.

Ye Jingcheng only refined two portions from the three Purple Jade Fruits, leaving one behind. The two fruits were refined into six portions of Purple Mansion Jade Liquid, which were naturally inferior to the first one refined, but one of them had a rich spiritual fragrance and was of much higher quality.

As for the last Purple Jade Fruit, Ye Jingcheng did not use it. He wanted to wait until his alchemy skills were more refined before refining it. Even if he couldn't refine eight or nine portions, it would be excellent to refine five or six portions.

After Ye Jingcheng finished refining the Purple Mansion Jade Liquid, he began to refine Tier 4 spiritual pills.

He had obtained many spiritual herbs, so he could refine some Tier 4 spiritual pills now.

One was for his own cultivation, and the other was for the Jade Kirin蛟 and Red Flame Fox to cultivate.

The Ye family had obtained many demon king inner cores before, so he could refine them now.

As for leaving them for breaking through to Pseudo-Core cultivators, the Ye family had not reached that point yet.

...

In the Sand Sea, choking yellow sand rolled up hundreds of zhang high.

Several figures had to stay outside the yellow sand.

The leader was Ye Haisheng, and at this moment, his sword embryo faintly revealed a trace of blood red.

The daily Sand Sea chase had added some vicissitudes and indifference to his face, and the sharpness and edges of Hidden Peak had been smoothed out a lot.

Seeing the sandstorm, his face was extremely ugly.

"The Jia family cultivators are really cunning!" They had been chasing the Zhang family cultivators before. The Zhang family cultivators fell very quickly, and they also found two small worlds, but they were both small worlds the size of counties, but the spiritual energy was relatively lacking.

There were very few mortals inside.

Not long ago, they accidentally discovered a Tier 2 secret realm of the Jia family. After besieging it, several people escaped.

Each of these escaped people had five or six storage bags, obviously rich in oil. Ye Haisheng owed a lot of contribution points, so how could he let them go? But he didn't expect the other party's escape speed to be extremely impressive, and now they had even run into the sandstorm in front of them.

"Uncle Ancestor Haisheng, this is one of the forbidden areas of the Sand Sea, the Fallen Soul Forbidden Land. It is said that many cultivators who enter never come out again!" Ye Qingfeng also said from the side.

Among the Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Qing generation, Ye Qingyan was good at alchemy, Ye Qingwen was good at body cultivation, and the more comprehensive one was Ye Qingfeng.

During these days in the Sand Sea, he had also learned about some of the forbidden areas of the Sand Sea, and the one in front of him was one of them.

"It is said that there may even be demon kings inside!" Ye Qingfeng added.

But at this moment, it was naturally impossible for them to leave.

The treasures in that secret realm were probably taken away by the Jia family cultivator in front of them.

"Wait, I don't believe he won't come out!" Ye Haisheng was very stubborn at the moment.

Although he was unwilling to take risks, he was willing to delay some time.

"You all wait, my sword embryo is only one last blood formula away from being completed. I will definitely kill him!" Ye Haisheng added.

The sword embryo he cultivated was different from Ye Xuecang's sword embryo. He was walking the path of killing, the Blood Killing Sword Embryo, which belonged to the most bizarre and unpredictable of the water-attribute sword techniques. It was said that when cultivated to great success, it would be no problem to seal the throat upon seeing blood.

Of course, even when replenishing the sword embryo, he still took out thirty-six magic swords and arranged a sword formation, so that even if the Jia family cultivator escaped in advance, Ye Qingfeng could deal with it.
