Images Preserved in the Spirit Jade

The ancient room was unusually quiet at the moment, and an unknown sandalwood incense burner was burning nearby, smelling exceptionally pleasant.

The sandalwood incense filled the air, creating a misty, ethereal atmosphere that made the cultivator before Ye Jingcheng seem even more mysterious.

The other person put down the elixir bottle they had been examining for a long time and looked at Ye Jingcheng:

"Your alchemy skills are quite good. Now you have two choices. One is that I recommend you to join the sect. With the sect's Secret Method, even if they can't cure your incompatible Spirit Root, they still have other Secret Method!"

"Secondly, I have a treasure here that can improve your Qi and Blood, but it's my personal treasure, so you'll have to give me some Spirit Stone!"

"Senior, I still have a grandfather who is alive. I choose the second option!" Ye Jingcheng hesitated for a long time before taking out a Storage Bag from his pocket. However, as he took it out, Ye Jingcheng kept looking at the other person's arm.

He prepared two Storage Bag: one containing several hundred Spirit Stone, and the other given to him by Ye Haiyi.

Since there was no reconciliation of statements or testimonies in this transaction, he had to be extremely careful.

"Take a look at the treasure first!" Seemingly sensing Ye Jingcheng's burning gaze, the cultivator took out a Storage Bag.

Ye Jingcheng was somewhat puzzled. He took the Storage Bag and saw that the restriction array on the Storage Bag was exactly the same as the one in Ye Jingcheng hand.

Only after arriving here did Ye Jingcheng relax a little.

But they didn't exchange arms immediately; since the other person's arm didn't emit any spiritual light, he couldn't fully trust them.

Instead, following the method recorded in the Lineage's records, they quickly broke through the forbidden array, revealing a third-order Spirit Gathering Formation plate and a third-order spirit-attracting Spirit Stone.

Both of these treasures were rich in spiritual light, and their spiritual pressure was extremely high, so they couldn't be faked. Moreover, he had seen them in the Jade Slip, so he was completely at ease.

He took out the Storage Bag and handed it to the other person.

The other party also paused for a while, clearly also trying to break the barrier.

"Take the pills back. You refined them, so they should be yours. However, I hope you will continue to consider joining a sect. I can introduce you to one within the next ten years!"

"Thank you, senior!"

After putting away the jade bottle, Ye Jingcheng stood up and took his leave.

"Take a good look at the murals!" As Ye Jingcheng was leaving, he heard a voice transmission in his ear. He was taken aback for a moment, but nodded and left anyway.

He quickly returned to the hall.

The surrounding cultivators all cast envious glances.

Unlike another Rogue Cultivator who directly joined the Taiyi Sect, Ye Jingcheng did not, so they were curious about what reward Ye Jingcheng had received.

"Fellow Daoist Tang, would you like to exchange some treasures? A trade fair is currently underway."

"The treasures can be bartered or sold. In addition, once everything is settled, Fellow Daoist Tang can personally paint a picture on the wall of the Hidden Dragon Hall to leave behind the treasure map of the Pill Furnace!" Xu Haoyi, as the organizer, spoke again.

"Thank you for informing me, Senior Brother Xu!" Ye Jingcheng was overjoyed.

Of course, he was on high alert, knowing that the Xu Family cultivators were watching him.

Clearly, the other party had some doubts, since the organizers this time were disciples of Taiyi Dharma Peak, but the Foundation Establishment steward was Foundation Establishment of Taiyi Illusion Peak.

Ye Jingcheng sat down to the side, showing great interest in the treasures that everyone brought out, but his eyes darkened unusually when the price was mentioned.

They seemed rather embarrassed, but in reality, most of the Rogue Cultivator here were like this; they rarely exchanged for treasures, but they did sell quite a few.

Meanwhile, the young members of the Lineage were quite extravagant, taking many treasures into their pockets.

After all, for most cultivators, the most important thing is to save enough Spirit Stone to buy Foundation Establishment.

Ye Jingcheng only looked at the Xu Family cultivator when it was his turn to take the treasure, and the other party's doubts seemed to have been greatly dispelled.

It's understandable, really. Even if you have doubts, why would you pay too much attention to someone who is sickly?

No one would have guessed that the Ye Family had already laid the groundwork years ago.

The real event wasn't at the auction, but at an alchemy gathering.

The trade fair ended half an hour later, and all the Lineage cultivators were beaming with health.

The group of Rogue Cultivator were also talking excitedly about the treasure they had just acquired.

Ye Jingcheng ultimately switched to a more common alchemy ingredient.

The amount of Spirit Stone was not much, only sixty Spirit Stone, which was considered as supporting Xu Haoyi.

This is almost an explanation of what those Rogue Cultivators.

Xu Haoyi was clearly somewhat disappointed, but fortunately, the Li Family offered two fine treasures, which he bought.

My mood improved considerably, and I remained as hospitable as ever to everyone.

Finally, we arrived at the most crucial part: the mural section.

Ye Jingcheng and the other two arrived in front of the palace wall and saw that there was still a lot of empty space there.

Along with them came many other cultivators who came to watch, including not only independent Rogue Cultivator but also many Lineage cultivators.

"Gentlemen, it just needs to be no bigger than the portrait in the middle. This is an honor for Alchemist!" Ye Jingcheng as he listened to Xu Haoyi's introduction.

But then he heard the words of the Foundation Establishment senior, and felt a sense of helplessness.

These murals cannot be painted like ordinary paintings with a brush; they must be created using spiritual power.

However, the fact that cultivators left their spiritual energy here, using their methods, poses a significant potential threat.

He wanted to avoid the mural, but when he hinted at it to Xu Haoyi, the other party shook his head and refused.

This is clearly a rule of the Hidden Dragon Hall.

Left with no other choice, Ye Jingcheng had to comply. However, it was impossible for him to use his own spiritual power. He controlled the Beast-Link Mark to transmit wisps of spiritual power within his body.

That way, even if problems arise in the future, it won't be him who gets into trouble, but the Spirit Beast.

In order to avoid the Xu Family and Li Family, he could not use the spiritual power of the Crimson Flame Fox and the Golden-Scaled Beast.

The spiritual power of the Jade-Scale Snake also involves Jade Dragon Valley, so it cannot be used either.

Fortunately, Ye Jingcheng had already Beast Communion the Jade Ring Rat before, although the latter did not bring much help to his Beast Communion.

He rarely absorbed the spiritual power of the Jade Ring Rat, since the latter's spiritual power was not as pure as his own.

However, this is precisely the time when it comes in handy.

As the Jade Ring Rat's spiritual power flowed into his hand, Ye Jingcheng quickly began to paint.

The jade-like spiritual energy continuously fell onto the wall, and under Ye Jingcheng's perception, the wall seemed to be a Law Treasure.

Moreover, as it is being depicted, it continues to absorb his Spiritual Qi.

Ye Jingcheng looked at the other three and found that they had the same expression.

Everyone at this small exchange meeting swore an oath against their Heart Demon, so even the cultivators from those Lineage couldn't learn more about the situation.

Those Rogue Cultivator and other practitioners watching from the outside were filled with envy.

After seeing that Ye Jingcheng's spiritual power was jade-colored and Water Attribute, the cultivators from the Li Family and Xu Family completely stopped watching.

An Alchemist with both Fire Spiritual Root and Water Spirit Roots, and who also specializes in Water Attribute Cultivation Method —no wonder his spiritual energy is incompatible!

The other cultivators were not surprised at all, only somewhat disappointed.

For cultivators, many Cultivation Method are different, and some even imitate Cultivation Method Spirit Beast.

Therefore, the kind of spiritual power he used is not unusual.

However, the strength of the Spiritual Qi energy disappointed them.

The mural fell down quickly; of course, it couldn't have been any slower, as the group consisted of Qi Refining cultivators who couldn't withstand the release of spiritual energy for long.

The other three crafted exquisite Pill Furnace, each with its own unique characteristics.

For example, Xu Haoshui of the Xu Family has a Golden Elephant Raised-Hoof Furnace, which is extremely precious, with its splendor and nobility complementing each other.

On the contrary, Ye Jingcheng's Pill Furnace was ordinary, just like any other ordinary furnace.

"Don't laugh at me, but I saved up three years' worth of Spirit Stone to buy this furnace. It was because of this Pill Furnace that I became Alchemist, and I cherish it dearly. So I left it behind as a way to encourage other Rogue Cultivator Alchemist!" Ye Jingcheng replied with a self-deprecating tone amidst the crowd's confusion.

However, his words resonated with many Rogue Cultivators, who immediately cheered and even exchanged telepathic Jade Slip slips with Ye Jingcheng for future reunions.

"This is the Hidden Dragon Token of the Hidden Dragon Hall. It has the character 'Dan' on it. From now on, when you go to the Soaring Dragon Pavilion to buy treasures, you will receive a 50% discount on items below the second floor!" Xu Haoyi took out the token and handed it to the four people.

Ye Jingcheng looked at the token, nodded, and showed gratitude, but he didn't really feel anything in his heart.

I just feel I should be more vigilant in the future.

If he hadn't been reminded, he would have put his spiritual energy into the Hidden Dragon Wall today, which could have caused serious problems later.

He was not like the other Rogue Cultivator, whose lifespan was limited to 120 years.

"Senior Brother Xu, I have other important matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave now!" Ye Jingcheng said.

Ye Jingcheng had a good impression of Xu Haoyi, and the open schemes within the Hidden Dragon Hall were beyond Xu Haoyi's control.

Ye Jingcheng left the crowd and went up to the restaurant next door.

Beside the restaurant, Meng Xuan also stood up and spoke with anticipation in his eyes.

"Hao Bo, how are you?"

"Master Meng, Hao Bo has had good luck this time!" Ye Jingcheng took out the Hidden Dragon Token.

As everyone knows, once you participate in the Hidden Dragon Token, it will be revoked.

The only way to avoid being rejected is to win the championship!

"Good!" Meng Xuan grinned, his fleshy face jiggling, then slammed his hand on the table and shouted into the distance.

"Waiter, bring the wine, and the Jade Languor Wine!"

"Good sir!"

"Bring another plate of Blue-Flower Red Rice Spirit Meal. Today I must drink a few cups with my grand-nephew, otherwise we wouldn't deserve this beautiful, bright red sunset!"

"Master Meng, this beautiful sunset is a sight to behold every day, we can't drink like this!" Ye Jingcheng said with a smile.

Meng Xuan laughed heartily, and Ye Jingcheng, when the wine arrived, also poured wine for Meng Xuan.

This Jade Languor Wine is a mid-grade first-tier spiritual wine. It is slightly better than Green Bamboo Wine in terms of Spiritual Qi, but not by much.

However, the taste is much better.

Moreover, this wine is very spicy and potent; after drinking just half a bowl, it easily evokes memories of the past.

"Back in the day, Master Meng also had a love that was unforgettable!" Meng Xuan muttered to himself after drinking too much.

Perhaps because his alchemy and cultivation were no longer as advanced as Ye Jingcheng's, he started boasting about their past relationship.

They also talked about Ye Jingcheng's childhood, but it was all about Tang Haobo, whom Ye Jingcheng already knew a bit about.

Ye Jingcheng felt somewhat helpless, but he listened attentively.

Only when the wine began to change color and turn reddish did Ye Jingcheng get up, pack two bottles of Red Lantau, and leave the restaurant.

In his perception, the person who had been tracking him had finally left!
