A Visitor from Beyond the Peak

Ye Haiyi was still somewhat puzzled after a long time. He had initially thought that Ye Jingcheng took the egg to eliminate the difference between the five eggs, thus leaving no trace and preventing the Taiyi Sect from making any guesses.

Now it seems as if Ye Jingcheng has taken a liking to that one.

"Fine, you can choose for yourself. This way, we can have some Spirit Stones left over to exchange for some Spirit-Nurturing Liquid and mid-grade Spirit Stones to set up a spirit-nurturing array!" Ye Haiyi added.

The Ye Family, naturally, wouldn't just wait for some spirit eggs to hatch, as that would be too time-consuming. Instead, they would soak them in Spirit-Nurturing Liquid and set up spirit-nurturing arrays.

This spirit-gathering array is also related to the Spirit Stones that are placed within it.

The better the Spirit Stone, the greater the effect of the Spirit Gathering Array.

Legend has it that the highest level is the Spirit-Nourishing Array made of top-grade Spirit Stones.

"Thank you for your guidance, Third Grandfather!" Ye Jingcheng had a different opinion. He possessed the spiritual light of the Treasure Book, and perhaps he could hatch the Jade-Scale Snake simply by using that light.

Of course, even so, he would still exchange them for some mid-grade Spirit Stones.

In the Cultivation World, a mid-grade Spirit Stone can be exchanged for approximately 100 to 120 Spirit Stones Spirit Stone, depending on market fluctuations.

During this peaceful period, there are no large quantities of mid-grade Spirit Stone mines available, so the exchange rate is around 108.

In the Ye Family, this ratio is controlled at around 104 contribution points.

Since the Ye Family's contribution points are more valuable than low-grade Spirit Stones, no cultivator would exchange them for mid-grade Spirit Stones to sell.

After replacing the Spirit Beast egg, Ye Jingcheng bowed and withdrew.

Following Ye Jingcheng, several other people entered in turn.

"How was it, Jingcheng? You've had quite a bit to show for yourself!" Ye Jingli asked with obvious delight.

The exact number of contribution points that can be exchanged and distributed must be explained to Ye Haiyi before it can be clear.

"That's good, it seems Sixth Brother has had a good haul!" Ye Jingcheng replied with a smile.

"I'm fine, but I might need to trouble you Jingcheng, in a while!" Ye Jingli replied.

This was a rare instance of Ye Jingcheng seeing Ye Jingli so humble, suggesting he had indeed gained quite a bit; at least a thousand contribution points, if not more.

The group had been traveling to the Taihang Mountain Range for less than a month.

This price-performance ratio is even faster than robbery Bandit Cultivator!

Ye Jingcheng agreed to Ye Jingli's request; he didn't even need to ask, he guessed Ye Jingli wanted to exchange it for a new Spirit Beast.

With Beast-Link Mark and enough contribution points, cultivators like them have only two choices: either exchange for mature Spirit Beasts to improve their cultivation and combat power.

Secondly, they can exchange for Spirit Beast Cubs with high talent.

With Ye Jingcheng's promise, Ye Jingli smiled even more happily.

As time passed, the last monk emerged.

Ye Haiyi spoke up from behind him:

"Everyone, continue to rest for the night, but there's no need to immerse yourselves in cultivation. We can't let our guard down until we reach Soaring Cloud Peak!" After saying this, Ye Haiyi returned to the Stone Chamber he had been in before and closed his eyes again.

Ye Jingcheng, Ye Jingli, and the others returned to their respective caves and Stone Chambers, where they closed their eyes to rest.

Ye Jingcheng then took out the Crimson Flame Fox and infused it with Treasure Radiance for its hind legs.

As the Treasure Radiance flowed in, the wound covered in scabs began to fade slowly, and the crimson fur became even shinier, radiating a heartwarming warmth.

The Red Fox whimpered and turned to lick Ye Jingcheng's hand.

"Next time you encounter this situation, you need to be even better at dodging. When you return to Soaring Cloud Peak, practice with Gold Scale. He can practice the Earth Spike Technique, and you can practice dodging!" Ye Jingcheng admonished.

The Crimson Flame Fox was severely injured this time, and it was fortunate that it had the Purple-Gold Wings, otherwise it might have perished on the spot.

The cultivators from the Li Family were too vicious. After realizing they couldn't escape, they targeted the most promising cultivators or Spirit Beasts from the Ye Family.

The Crimson Flame Fox's speed and reaction time, as well as its compatibility with Law Artifacts, still need improvement.

What the Crimson Flame Fox lacks now is not offensive means, but defensive means. He even wants to ask Ye Jingli to forge another defensive magic Law Artifact for the Crimson Flame Fox.

At the same time, Ye Jingcheng must take this as a profound warning and never repeat this mistake in the future.

So he took out the Jade Slip, recorded it, and deduced how to handle the situation next time before stopping.

By this time, it was late at night, and the temperature inside the cave had dropped considerably; a slight chill could be felt emanating from the Stone Chamber.

However, the Crimson Flame Fox was fast asleep nearby, and wisps of mist were rising.

Ye Jingcheng stopped paying attention and began cultivating the Four-Aspect Heavenly Origin Scripture. At present, the crimson Spiritual Qi was the largest, followed by the Earth Attribute Spiritual Qi, while the Wood Attribute and Water Attribute were the smallest.

Ye Jingcheng had no solution to this problem, but fortunately, no matter what kind of Spiritual Qi he absorbed, it wouldn't affect his breakthrough in cultivation level.

On the contrary, his cultivation speed is actually quite fast now.

The Crimson Flame Fox is now equivalent to the eighth level of Qi Refining in a cultivator, and the Fire Attribute spiritual power within its body is exceptionally pure.

Ye Jingcheng was able to make great progress with just a little refinement, and the same principle applies to the Spiritual Qi of the Golden-Scaled Beast.

If Ye Jingcheng could only retain a trace of pure Spiritual Qi in one cycle of cultivation before he mastered the Beast-Link Mark, now it's three or four traces.

The speed is naturally incomparable.

The cultivation time passed quickly, and just after Ye Jingcheng completed another Lesser Celestial Circuit, a voice transmission came.

"Everyone, move out!" Ye Haiyi's authoritative voice rang out, unusually cold.

Although Ye Jingcheng found it strange, he dared not delay.

When he came out of the cave, he found that quite a few people had already come out. Those of the "Xing" generation looked perfectly normal, but he and Ye Jingli puzzled.

Ye Haiyi took out his Spirit Boat, but this time it was a top-grade, three-sailed, first-tier Spirit Boat, its hull made of emerald green wood, and it looked incredibly radiant.

Compared to the previous small boat, this was like comparing heaven and earth.

"Take off your Spirit-Isolating Robes!" Ye Haiyi said again.

Upon hearing this, Ye Jingcheng was somewhat surprised and doubtful. He looked at the number of people, but it hadn't changed.

Without giving it much thought, he handed the Spirit-Isolating Robes to Ye Haiyi.

The group boarded the Spirit Boat and headed towards Soaring Cloud Peak.

At this moment, Ye Haiyi's expression turned somewhat solemn.

Taking advantage of the darkness, the Spirit Boat flew extremely fast, until it caught a glimpse of a mountain peak standing tall in the distance.

And faint streaks of white light began to appear at the edge of the sky.

As the sun was about to rise, everyone couldn't help but find the sunrise over Soaring Cloud Peak incredibly beautiful.

That faint glimmer of dawn will eventually transform into dazzling purple qi and a blazing sun.

However, when the Spirit Boat arrived in front of Soaring Cloud Peak, another Spirit Boat appeared in the distance.

On the Spirit Boat, the Li Family's name was clearly displayed.

This scene made many members of the Ye Family nervous, including Ye Xingyao Ye Xingqun.

However, Ye Haiyi's situation became rather ordinary.

The speed neither continued to increase nor decrease.

Soon, the Li Family's Spirit Boat and the Ye Family's Spirit Boat arrived at the foot of Soaring Cloud Peak together!

"Fellow Daoist Li, what brings you here at the hour of Mao?" Ye Xingliu flew out from Soaring Cloud Peak.
