The Jade-Scale Snake Breaks Through

Although the commotion at Soaring Cloud Peak was significant, it gradually weakened and disappeared after an hour.

As dusk fell, a sudden downpour began.

It seems that at this moment, there is a hint of early spring.

Ye Jingcheng could clearly feel that the Spiritual Qi content in the rainwater had increased significantly, even more so than the Water Spirit that Ye Jingcheng and his companions had brought from the Taihang Mountain Range. It should be noted that this was rainwater, not spring water that had absorbed the earth's veins.

Ye Jingcheng looked at the mountain peak again. The strange phenomena on the mountain had completely disappeared, but the depth and mystery of the mountain were even more pronounced in the heavy rain.

He even felt that the rain on the mountain was heavier than that at the foot of the mountain.

He knew that there was a sacred lake on the mountaintop, where many Red-Node Fish were raised.

After watching the rain for a while, Ye Jingcheng also began to find it boring.

Back in his room, he began cultivating the Four-Aspect Heavenly Origin Scripture.

He stopped taking pills; he had taken quite a few in the past six months, and had consumed almost all of the spiritual honey.

Although Lingmi can alleviate erysipelas, excessive consumption can still lead to the accumulation of erysipelas.

Fortunately, he can continue taking the spiritual honey to speed up the process of clearing the erysipelas.

Of the four elements of Spiritual Qi, one can see that the fire and earth elements are almost completely present within the body, the water element is also present in considerable quantity, while the wood element is almost nonexistent.

The water-elemental spiritual power comes from the fact that he has recently consumed a lot of Azure Water Pill.

Because he was focusing on cultivating the Jade-Scale Snake, he refined the Azure Water Pill the most times.

Although the success rate of refining Water Attribute elixirs is still not good, it has now stabilized at three pills per attempt.

Ye Jingcheng took a deep breath and continued to control the circulation of spiritual energy. The next moment, he was surprised to find that the amount of Spiritual Qi absorbed in one cycle had increased significantly again.

This means that the effect of the third-tier Spirit Vein has increased significantly once again.

Ye Jingcheng was naturally overjoyed by this. He was already used to arduous cultivation, and now he seemed to have another goal to strive for.

In the days that followed, Ye Jingcheng worked even harder.

Although he stopped taking pills, his cultivation progress was not much slower than when he did!

The erysipelas in his body gradually dissipated after taking the spiritual honey.

Even the weather on Soaring Cloud Peak is getting better day by day.

Every evening, a crimson sunset appears at the horizon.

On this day, accompanied by a series of squeaking sounds, Ye Jingcheng awoke from his cultivation.

He noticed the Jade Ring Rat at the door was quite anxious.

After sensing it again, Ye Jingcheng discovered that the Jade-Scale Snake seemed to be at the critical juncture of its breakthrough.

He pushed open the door that hadn't been opened for a long time, and the Jade Ring Rat came forward, squeaking.

Its large ears are still enormous, but its body has become much longer.

The claws and incisors also became sharper.

Ye Jingcheng took out two Spirit Feeding Pills and fed them to the Jade Ring Rat before walking to the Spirit Field.

The spot where the Jade-Scale Snake had been placed was now radiating white jade light, and a somber aura was brewing within it.

At the same time, the Spiritual Qi that the Spirit Gathering Formation was trying to gather in the ground was instead being drawn towards the Jade-Scale Snake.

The Jade-Scale Snake curled up even tighter.

The next moment, a Jade Spirit shield was formed.

To block it all out.

After a long while, cracks began to appear on the Jade Spirit shield.

These cracks gradually shattered into a net-like pattern, eventually turning into fragments of spiritual light and disappearing.

What appeared before Ye Jingcheng was a spirit snake that was even more like white jade.

It might not even be able to be simply called a spirit snake.

Because at this moment, the Jade-Scale Snake began to develop scales, and two long white jade whiskers appeared at its mouth.

Her eyes were bigger and brighter.

Ironically, the one that changed the least was the Jade-Scale Tail Blade of the Jade-Scale Snake.

However, the next moment, Ye Jingcheng realized that he was wrong. The Jade-Scale Tail Blade had not changed the least, but had become more refined, just like Law Artifact had been upgraded from a low-grade first-level weapon to a high- First-Tier Superior-Grade.

A qualitative change has occurred.

With the current strength of the Jade-Scale Tail Blade, even a typical First-Tier Superior-Grade spirit armor probably couldn't withstand more than a few strikes.

Most importantly, the Jade-Scale Snake no longer needed to spray mist; it could directly begin to fly through the air.

Clearly, its mist-escaping technique has reached a new level, no longer requiring the emission of clouds and mist.

The moisture in the air alone is enough.

Ironically, the least changed aspect is the venomous mist and toxins of the Jade-Scale Snake.

This change is so small that it can be ignored.

The aura emanating from the Jade-Scale Snake startled Ye Jingcheng as well. The Jade Scale Serpent's aura was equivalent to that of a human cultivator at the ninth level of Qi Refining!

The medicinal properties of the top-grade Jade-Scale Pill, combined with the Jade-Scale Snake's talent and its recent consumption of numerous Azure Water Pills, have allowed it to surpass the Golden-Scaled Beast and, by a small margin, catch up with the Crimson Flame Fox.

"Roar!" The sound emanating from the Jade-Scale Snake was no longer just hissing.

It is becoming more and more like a dragon.

Moreover, it opened its mouth wide, and a huge suction force came from it, almost making Ye Jingcheng lose his footing.

"Hungry!" The Jade-Scale Snake displayed its newly acquired devouring ability and excitedly sent Divine Soul fluctuation toward Ye Jingcheng!

Ye Jingcheng took out two Azure Water Pills, which the Jade-Scale Snake swallowed but was not quite satisfied.

The fluctuations in hunger showed no signs of abating.

After Ye Jingcheng took out two slightly smaller Azure Cloud Wolf corpses, the latter's eyes shot out a spiritual light, clearly showing great satisfaction.

It wants to eat the big one!

After swallowing the two corpses of the Azure Cloud Wolf, the Jade-Scale Snake became much quieter.

The incredibly complex Spirit Patterns could be seen even more clearly on that protruding, massive neck.

Moreover, as time went on, the protrusion on the Jade Lin tail, which swayed back and forth, became smaller and smaller, demonstrating its terrifying digestive ability.

Its eyes were still fixed on the room, as if it could see through the room and spot the Golden-Scaled Beast.

The tongue sticks out unintentionally.

Ye Jingcheng didn't even need to sense through the Soul Pact to know that the Jade-Scale Snake was dreaming again.

Ye Jingcheng infused the Jade-Scale Snake with some Treasure Radiance, then told it to stay aside. Although it could begin its breakthrough to the ninth level of Jade-Scale Snake Refining, Ye Jingcheng knew that there was no need to rush.

It would be better to wait until the Jade-Scale Snake stabilizes for a while.

Now, he discovered that his spiritual field was even more crystal clear and full of spiritual light. Clearly, after the Soaring Cloud Peak Spirit Vein was upgraded, his spiritual field could be said to have risen to a higher level.

Ye Jingcheng now had quite a few seeds in his hands.

Among these seeds are seeds of the Purple Illusion Flower, as well as seeds of the Black Cloud Flower and the Poison Thorn Flower.

Ye Jingcheng plans to plant fewer Purple Illusion Flower seeds and more Poison Thorn Flower seeds, so that he can produce more Poison Thorn Fruit.

As for the Black Cloud Flower, it doesn't bloom every year, so Ye Jingcheng just lets it be.

Ye Jingcheng had been continuously infusing the forty seeds of the Poison Thorn Flower with Treasure Radiance over the past year, so at this moment, all forty seeds were extremely plump.

If the seed seller saw this, he might not even dare to believe that he sold the seeds.

Besides the seeds of the Poison Thorn Flower, Ye Jingcheng also processed the seeds of the Black Cloud Flower.

He then summoned the Jade Ring Rat and began planting. The Jade Ring Rat was clearly more skilled at planting; it used its claws to scratch, dig, and push.

After Ye Jingcheng put down the seeds, it covered them again.

Ye Jingcheng only needs to plan the density of the Spirit Plant and then apply the Cloud and Rain Technique a few times.

So all the seeds were planted, and now its spiritual field was almost fully utilized, but it was no longer possible to expand its scale.

However, the Five Poison Bee could be expanded once more.

Ye Jingcheng plans to induce the remaining two queen bees to reproduce once summer arrives.

On the contrary, his Five Poison Bee, which he Beast Communion, needs to consume more spiritual honey. By the end of the year, it can also begin to take bloodline Advancement Pill advance its level.

After dealing with the spirit flower, Ye Jingcheng went to check on the Spring Welcoming Tea, as the advancement of the Spirit Vein would greatly benefit this tea tree.

Now it is more lush, but the tea leaves are even smaller.

However, it now contains much more Spiritual Qi, and can now be considered a low-grade first-tier spiritual tea.

Based on this alone, it would be quite good to sell it for one or two taels of five Spirit Stones.

Therefore, Ye Jingcheng also learned the intercropping and transplanting technique taught by Ye Xinghan, and took off a lot of tea stems to start expanding the scale.

Ye Jingcheng glanced at the bitter bamboo and then paid it no further attention.

After a year and a half of growth, the bitter bamboo grew exceptionally well, but it was still just ordinary bamboo. Even though it had been imbued with Spiritual Qi, it was still inferior to the tea tree.

Ye Jingcheng naturally couldn't care less about that at the moment.

After tending to his own small spiritual field, Ye Jingcheng returned to his house and continued his cultivation.

After cultivation comes alchemy, a long and arduous process!

He had been refining for a month, and a considerable number of elixirs had been laid out on the table in front of him.

As usual, Ye Jingcheng channeled a lot of Treasure Radiance into the poisonous flowers in the spirit field and also fed the Spirit Beast.

Then, the sign indicating closed-door seclusion was put up, and at the same time, all the Array were activated to their maximum extent.

Ye Jingcheng then gave the Jade-Scale Snake Serpent two more Azure Water Pill, and he himself began cultivating the Four-Aspect Heavenly Origin Scripture.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, the moonlight fades and the dawn arrives.

A wisp of purple qi drifted in from the east.

Ye Jingcheng's eyes seemed to grow even more resolute because of the purple qi.

He coiled up on the jade bed, and the Jade-Scale Snake also came to the edge of the bed.

Ye Jingcheng unleashed the Five-Inch Beast-Link Mark in his hand, and began to condense Beast Communion once more, which quickly landed on the forehead of the Jade-Scale Snake.

Ye Jingcheng had used the Beast Communion countless times, and he was already extremely familiar with it.

Before half an incense stick's time had passed, an identical Beast-Link Mark was also marked on the back of the Jade-Scale Snake.

The Beast-Link Mark quickly dissipated, transforming into a spiritual shadow that returned to Ye Jingcheng's hand.

This time, a massive amount of water-based spiritual energy surged towards Ye Jingcheng like a tidal wave.

This spiritual energy is much purer than the Spiritual Qi the Crimson Flame Fox received when it first Beast Communion.

Furthermore, this water-based Spiritual Qi, like mist, spread throughout his body and eventually flowed into his flesh and blood.

At this moment, Ye Jingcheng felt that his entire body had become much stronger.

This scene also brought Ye Jingcheng immense joy.

Even so, his physical body is still inferior to that of Body Cultivator.

But to improve one's physical body without cultivation is something many cultivators dream of.

Besides this change in Water Attribute, Ye Jingcheng also felt that his cultivation speed had almost doubled again.

A three-colored vortex appeared around him.

It was frantically absorbing Spiritual Qi.

Even more worrying that the Spiritual Qi was still insufficient, Ye Jingcheng took another Red Ganoderma Pill and an Azure Water Pill!
