Myriad Spirits Immortal Clan

Inside the pavilion, Ye Jingcheng's eyes widened in surprise at first, then he stared intently at Zhan Baoting.

He was naturally aware of the Crimson Flame Lion; it was a race with extremely powerful talent. Ordinary ones could reach the fourth rank, while stronger ones could reach the fifth rank.

Some ancient books and jade scrolls even recorded sightings of Crimson Flame Lions that had reached the sixth rank.

This was enough to prove that the Crimson Flame Lion's talent was extremely powerful.

It was definitely a spiritual pet comparable to some Flood Dragon hatchlings.

However, as Ye Jingcheng continued to observe, he noticed that the Crimson Flame Lion cub was currently at the late second rank, and his brows furrowed involuntarily.

This Crimson Flame Lion clearly didn't look like it had just been born; there was already some anger and some fear in its eyes. It had obviously been born for a while, and may have even broken through once.

In other words, this Crimson Flame Lion might have only been at the mid-second rank when it was first born.

This distinction might go unnoticed by others, but Ye Jingcheng was well aware of what it meant.

Either it had insufficient innate qi, or it wasn't a pureblood descendant.

Just then, he also noticed that the treasure book within his body had begun to glow.

However, it only emitted two layers of spiritual light, and the pill formulas started from the third rank.

In other words, this spiritual beast was not a pureblood Crimson Flame Lion. At most, it might be a mixed-blood. The Ye family had advancement pills that would allow it to break through to the demon king level without any problems, but in the hands of others, without special spiritual objects to nurture it, it might only reach the late stage of the Great Demon realm.

No wonder True Person Qianhe brought it out. It was estimated that the Hundred Beast Sect also had secret methods to investigate the bloodline of this Crimson Flame Lion.

"The appearance is not bad!" Ye Jingcheng thought to himself, losing interest.

If it were a pureblood Crimson Flame Lion, he might still have some interest, but for a mixed-blood that required a fourth-rank mid-grade magic treasure, it was a bit unworthy.

On the other hand, True Person Zifu next to him was struggling with a decision.

His lips pursed repeatedly, and his deep eyes remained indecisive.

His Zifu Sect only had him as a Golden Core cultivator, and he was worried that the Zifu Sect would decline like the Heavenly Sand Gate before it.

This was also the reason why he was trying to curry favor with Ye Jingcheng.

The Heyu Gate next door had two Golden Core cultivators, and they were currently searching for fourth-rank demon cores to find a way out for their sect, which was enough to show how much many cultivators valued inheritance, especially since everyone might have to venture into Southern Barbaric State.

So he was hesitant at the moment, because if he exchanged for this cub, the Zifu Sect would at least have a hope for the future.

He didn't expect this Crimson Flame Lion to reach the fifth rank; as long as it could reach the fourth rank, it could serve as a mountain-guarding spiritual beast.

"This lion's cultivation aura is not very good," Ye Jingcheng directly transmitted his voice to True Person Zifu.

If it were someone else, he might not have intervened, because speaking out like this would easily expose the Ye family's identity as experts in beast taming.

It still posed a faint risk to the Ye family.

But after all, True Person Zifu had been frank with him, and had not hesitated in answering some questions and exchanging spiritual herbs, so he would naturally not be stingy with a word of his own.

Upon hearing this, True Person Zifu looked at Ye Jingcheng, and after seeing that there was no change in Ye Jingcheng's expression.

He nodded. If Ye Jingcheng remembered correctly, the other party only had one fourth-rank mid-grade magic treasure.

If he exchanged it for this Heavenly Lion, the risk of going to Southern Barbaric State would be even greater.

Ye Jingcheng thought that he would still need to explain, but surprisingly, True Person Zifu seemed somewhat relieved, and did not ask why it was not very good, nor did he ask how Ye Jingcheng could tell.

He just closed his eyes and sullenly drank the spiritual tea on the table.

This surprised the Heyu dual cultivators next door.

Before long, the Crimson Flame Lion was exchanged.

True Person Qianhe's pavilion was not isolated or concealed, and Ye Jingcheng saw that the other party had received a broadsword magic treasure.

Obviously, even though True Person Qianhe deliberately showed off his status, many people had seen through it, and in the end, he only took the lowest value flying sword magic treasure among the fourth-rank mid-grade items.

The trade fair continued, and the next few treasures all had their information concealed.

Ye Jingcheng also saw a fourth-rank low-grade spiritual puppet, but without even thinking, it was most likely from the Xuan Puppet Sect.

The Heyu dual cultivators took out treasures and bid several times, but unfortunately, they did not gain anything, and those treasures were all sent back.

Finally, after the treasures of the last pavilion were exchanged, the figure of the Wangfu Master reappeared in the middle pavilion.

Three treasures appeared in the other party's hand.

Among the three treasures, one was a jade box and two were magic treasures.

Inside the jade box, it was none other than the Golden Core Pill, while the two magic treasures were a fourth-rank mid-grade Turtle King Shield, and the other was not a magic treasure, but a talisman treasure.

Unlike ordinary talisman treasures, which were just spiritual talismans, this talisman treasure was a triangular cone, sealed with a golden spiritual talisman.

Most ordinary talisman treasures were a magic treasure that was infused and refined into several talisman treasures, which would greatly reduce the power, but could give more descendants to protect their safety.

This special talisman treasure, on the other hand, maximizes the power of the magic treasure.

"I believe there is no need to introduce the Golden Core Pill. This magic treasure Turtle King Shield is refined from the carapace of a fourth-rank high-grade Black Turtle Demon King. Although it is only fourth-rank mid-grade, even a Golden Core peak cultivator would find it difficult to break through this carapace. The last magic treasure is the talisman treasure refined from the Azure King True Monarch's fifth-rank mid-grade magic treasure Triangular Cone. Its power is such that even a Golden Core late stage cultivator may not be able to withstand it!"

As the Wangfu Master spoke.

At this moment, the Golden Core cultivators in each pavilion felt a little dry-mouthed.

These three treasures would have been incredibly tempting even for Ye Jingcheng, let alone others.

The only one he didn't particularly value was the Gold Core Pill.

"These three treasures will not be exchanged, but will serve as rewards for this mission!" After a short while, Lord Wang spoke again.

With this announcement, the expressions of the crowd became somewhat subtle.

Although the righteous sects had a system for exchanging merit points for treasures,

these three treasures were almost never seen on the exchange list.

After all, these three treasures were extremely precious even within the righteous sects.

"Besides these three treasures, here is a list of treasures available for exchange with merit points this time!" At that moment, Lord Wang took out a jade scroll.

The jade scroll listed a full fifty treasures available for exchange.

Among these treasures were not only fourth-grade superior magic weapons, but also earth-grade low-rank cultivation methods, and the last main ingredient, Yellow Dragon Grass, that Ye Jingcheng needed to complete the Earth Dragon Pill.

In addition, there were also top-grade spirit stones and fourth-grade top-grade spirit gathering array spirit stones.

Ye Jingcheng's breathing became somewhat rapid.

After all, there were quite a few treasures he needed among them.

Of course, after seeing so many treasures, he also felt that this trip might not be so simple.

"Of course, everyone, please rest assured that this was not organized by this old man, but by the sect. Otherwise, this old man would not be able to produce so many treasures. At the same time, everyone, don't worry about the Xuan Tian Demon Sect's revenge. The last time they allowed the Ghost Xuan Sect to enter Xiaoshan Prefecture to plunder and kill wantonly was already a major taboo. It is only right and proper for us to counterattack once!"

"In addition, this mission is divided into three targets: Jiayuan Prefecture, Hezhong Prefecture, and Demon Gate Prefecture."

"Fellow cultivators, you are free to choose the mission in any of the three major prefectures. Jiayuan Prefecture and Hezhong Prefecture are not particularly deep, requiring only twelve people each. The remaining cultivators will enter Demon Gate Prefecture!"

"At the same time, each prefecture will have two Orange Dragon Flying Boats, so you can be bold and take action!"

Lord Wang said a lot in succession.

At that moment, Xu Qiukui from the pavilion next door sent a series of voice transmissions.

"Fellow Daoist Zifu, Fellow Daoist Qianchen, and the two fellow Daoists from the Heyu Sect, if not now to Qingquan Sect, when else?" Xu Qiukui was extremely happy at this moment.

He had long been eyeing the Qingquan Sect in Jiayuan Prefecture. Even if they had hidden cards, in his opinion, they could both seize their treasures and exchange them for sect rewards.

"Fellow Daoist Feng has already agreed with me. If you miss this opportunity, you will have no chance at all. Brother Zifu, I remember your lifespan is not long, this is a good opportunity!" Xu Qiukui continued, his tone much more cordial, even with a hint of pleading.

At this moment, Realist Zifu and the Heyu Sect couple both looked at Ye Jingcheng.

The cultivators of the Xuan Kui Sect would most likely go to Demon Gate Prefecture with the righteous sect cultivators.

That is to say, if they went to Jiayuan Prefecture, not only would True Qiankui not go, but even Mountain Kui Realist would not go.

The strongest remaining combat power, in their opinion, was Ye Jingcheng.

Moreover, Ye Jingcheng's current performance did not seem like a selfish and self-serving villain.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, how much do you know about Jiayuan Prefecture?" Although Ye Jingcheng was already tempted, he asked cautiously.

In his opinion, with Lord Wang's arrangement, Demon Gate Prefecture must have treasures that the righteous sects wanted.

Jiayuan Prefecture and Hezhong Prefecture were both attracting firepower.

The danger was naturally smaller.

For him, there was really no need to take risks now.

After all, both of his spirit beasts were advancing, and as long as he steadily advanced, breaking through to the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm would only take a little over ten years.

Moreover, the treasures on the exchange list, although they attracted him, were not to the extent that he had to exchange them.

On the contrary, in Jiayuan Prefecture, he had the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor as insurance.

"Naturally, I know it well!" Xu Qiukui patted his chest towards Ye Jingcheng from across the pavilion.

Feng Daoran next to him was obviously also persuaded.

"That's fine!" Ye Jingcheng then looked at Realist Zifu.

"Fellow Daoist Zifu, please speak to Lord Wang!" Ye Jingcheng had only emerged from the Tian Sha Sect in recent years, so it would not be appropriate for him to speak.

Seeing this, Realist Zifu assumed that Ye Jingcheng was showing respect for his age.

He then said:

"Fellow Daoist Qianchen, in the cultivation world, strength is respected. You can speak to Lord Wang."

"Fellow Daoist Xu and Fellow Daoist Feng are the strongest. Please speak, both of you!" Seeing Realist Zifu decline, Ye Jingcheng looked at the pavilion next door.

Xu Qiukui also nodded repeatedly.

Soon, he made it clear to Lord Wang.

The six of them happened to form a team, responsible for half of the affairs of Jiayuan Prefecture.

"Everyone, for your safety, please all make a Heavenly Dao Oath here!" For the sake of insurance, Lord Wang spoke again.

The crowd was not surprised by the Heavenly Dao Oath.

After all, they had already entered the Qing Kui Hall, and with the pavilion isolating them, they had long been mentally prepared to keep secrets with the Heavenly Dao Oath.

If there was no Heavenly Dao Oath, they would be worried instead.

After all, without the Heavenly Dao Oath, the news might leak in advance.

In this way, even if the evil cultivator forces were somewhat wary of the Golden Core Assembly, they would not know the specific details.

Naturally, the defense would not be so seamless.

This was good for everyone.

Moreover, after they agreed to go, Lord Wang also issued three Array Breaking Charms.

These three Array Breaking Charms were all fourth-grade!

Obviously, they were also for them to break formations and seize treasures.
