Xu Family's Methods, the Lake Opens Two Paths (Combined Chapter; Thanks to Yuning Tian for 1,000 Coins)
It was still early autumn, and the sun hanging in the sky was still blazing red.
It was like a furnace right next to you.
Ye Jingcheng's place, though it also has Greenstone Bamboo, is quite Spiritual Qi.
However, the number of bamboo plants is still too small to form a bamboo grove, and Ye Jingcheng cannot focus on cultivating this bamboo forest.
Moreover, because they are stationed outside the area, all the Spirit Plant here are now being managed by the Lineage's cultivators.
"It's alright, I'm good at this!" Ye Jingli said without hesitation. He also took out a mid-grade first-level white oiled paper umbrella. When the umbrella was opened, it was huge and blocked the scorching sun. However, even after the umbrella became large, it was still transparent, so it did not affect everyone's view of the scenery outside.
But the blazing sun was blocked outside.
However, no one could imagine the power of this magical umbrella.
"If you need anything, just let me know. I can refine any kind of Law Artifact," Ye Jingli assured him.
Ye Jingyong gave Ye Jingli a meaningful look, as if implying that there were two Foundation Establishment cultivators here.
If you can't forge a second-tier Law Artifact, then you're just talking big.
However, Ye Jingli didn't care and continued to tinker with an ice jade plate, then placed the spirit apricots on the ice jade plate.
As the spiritual mist rose, the apricot trees appeared even greener and more lush.
Ye Jingcheng and Ye Jingyu listened from the side, both smiling, not caring about Ye Jingli's boast.
Many of the opponent's magical Law Artifact were designed with great ingenuity, and most importantly, his thinking was not bound by existing ancient texts.
They also accepted Ye Jingli's personality. Since breaking through to the Foundation Establishment, they had all felt that the Lineage cultivators treated them with more awe than intimacy.
Moreover, Ye Jingli had put a lot of effort and spent a considerable amount of money on this preparation, so they were the beneficiaries.
"Sixth Brother, let me handle the spirit fish. But this Star-Pattern Fish is a mid-grade first-tier spirit fish, costing at least ten Spirit Stones each. And this one isn't small either. It seems Sixth Brother has had some success lately!" Ye Jingcheng took the Star-Pattern Fish and began cooking.
This Star-Pattern Fish comes from the Mo Family. It is a spirit fish that is more expensive than the Red-Node Fish. It is famous for the fine star patterns covering its surface, which are extremely helpful for Body Cultivator to consolidate their Blood Qi and qi.
This time, Ye Jingli brought quite a lot of things. Of course, he also discovered that Ye Jingli was now at the seventh level of Qi Refining.
Moreover, his cultivation is extremely stable, indicating that he has been in the breakthrough phase for some time and has likely become an Inner Hall. We will likely see him at future clan gatherings.
"Isn't this a festive occasion?" Ye Jingli chuckled.
The spirit fish dish was quickly cooked and placed on the table, displaying a golden hue and cooked to perfection. Beneath the star-shaped patterns were layers of special spirit fish meat, making it even more fragrant and delicious.
This is the most valuable part of the Star-Pattern Fish, and Ye Jingcheng takes great care in cooking it.
Paired with the flowing red glow of the spirit wine, the rising mist of the spirit apricots, and a handful of spirit sunflower seeds brimming with spiritual light, it was truly a grand feast of spirit fish.
"Congratulations on your marriage, Second Brother!" After everyone filled their cups, the bronze wine cups clinked together, and the four of them drank it all in one gulp.
I felt a fiery aroma of alcohol churning in my stomach and lingering in my throat.
"I'm so sick of drinking Blue Wave Wine lately!" Ye Jingli complained, then pointed at the Volcano Red and praised it repeatedly.
This Volcano Red Spirit Wine, a newly launched spirit wine from Mo Clan Restaurant, is a semi-medicinal wine made with Fire Attribute spirit medicine and is famous for its red color.
It forms a completely different style from the Blue Wave Wine at Mo Clan Restaurant.
Ye Jingcheng also thought the wine was good.
"Sixth Brother, you've been staying in Taihang Marketplace lately. How's the situation there?" Ye Jingcheng asked again.
"Jingcheng, this makes me angry! All the shops the Li Family owned in Taihang Marketplace were sold to the Xu Family in advance, and the Xu Family is still supporting the Li Lineage members as Rogue Cultivator!" Ye Jingli said.
These words drew unpleasant reactions from the others.
After all, the Ye Family had first issued Ban Li Order in the market, and then reduced the Spirit Stone considerably.
Finally, they clashed with the Li Family.
But in the end, the Xu Family picked all the peaches, completely and utterly.
Now that the Ye Family become Purple Mansion Lineage, the Xu Family is still protecting these cultivators, which is purely to disgust the Ye Family.
"Fortunately, the Lineage has already opened a new shop, a pill and weapon shop, which is to compete with the Xu Family!" Ye Jingli then added.
In Taihang Marketplace, the Xu Family mainly deals in alchemy and fire-making equipment, Mo Family mainly deals in restaurants and array plates Spirit Talisman.
The Ye Family is now Purple Mansion Lineage. If they really ignore the matter of the Li Family remnants and do nothing, they will become a laughing stock.
The only problem is that we can't issue Ban Xu Order like we did with the Li Family.
On the contrary, we should be worried that the Xu Family will issue a ban on leaves!
However, the Ye Family also had its own strengths, since Ye Family main business was Spirit Beast.
Of course, after being promoted to the Purple Mansion Lineage, how to increase profits in the Spirit Beast industry is also something the Ye Family needs to consider.
"Alright, let's not talk about the market anymore. I still want to congratulate Second Brother!" Ye Jingli shook his head and started celebrating Ye Jingyong again, to which Ye Jingyong nodded in agreement.
He drank it in one gulp, without saying a word.
He was still straightforward, but he had become less talkative.
Ye Jingcheng sensed something different about Ye Jingyong; perhaps his Lineage had discussed some matters with him.
After all, Ye Jingyong also possessed the Beast-Link Mark.
The matter of the Beast-Link Mark must not be discovered by the Chu Family. If Chu Yanliu is not on a mission and is wholeheartedly loyal to the Ye Family, that would be fine. But as long as there is even a slight estrangement, Ye Jingyong will have to lean more towards his Lineage.
Ye Jingcheng and Ye Jingyu exchanged a glance, feeling somewhat relieved.
They drank spirit wine until the afternoon, discussing everything from Lineage matters to their own development, and finally exchanged some insights.
As a few wild geese returned to their nests in the distance and the sun began to set, Ye Jingyu and Ye Jingyong were the first to say goodbye.
After talking for a Ye Jingli also left, drunk.
Once the three had gone far away, Ye Jingcheng used his Spiritual Qi to dissipate the effects of the alcohol.
For Ye Jingcheng, getting drunk occasionally is fine, but if he truly indulges in wine and women, it will inevitably interfere with his cultivation.
He first fed all four beasts, since when the four of them were eating and drinking, these Spirit Beasts all emitted Divine Soul fluctuations.
However, he was suppressed by Ye Jingcheng.
After feeding them, Ye Jingcheng finally had time to look into his Five Poison Bee hive.
He only gave birth to the Five Poison Bee Queen before leaving the clan mountain and going to Taihang Marketplace.
Therefore, he still doesn't know the exact number of the Five Poison Bee.
Upon arriving at the beehive, he discovered that it was arranged in the same way as before, and the Array had been moved here, just like the one in the small courtyard outside.
The beehive was much larger than when he left.
There are still about ten kilograms of honey inside.
Upon seeing the bee larvae, Ye Jingcheng's face lit up with joy. There were no fewer than two thousand bee larvae in the hive, forming a dense mass, more than three times the number from the previous time.
His Treasure Book also revealed several shadows, indicating that these Five Poison Bee have some potential, but not much.
However, it is still insufficient to determine exactly how many queen bees and male bees are inside the bee pupa.
At this point, Ye Jingcheng even considered selling the bees.
After all, such a large number of Five Poison Bee are quite valuable.
Moreover, the Five Poison Bee he himself needed was actually not that many.
Unless, of course, he can find a male peak with enough talent, and then nurture and improve his bloodline time and time again.
Ye Jingcheng nodded in satisfaction. He was pleased with these Five Poison Bee; the three queen bees, however, were dead.
This time, without Ye Jingcheng present, all three queen bees and the male bees died.
Ye Jingcheng wasn't too disappointed; after all, those were just ordinary queen bees and drones.
Once this batch of Five Poison Bee is bred, as long as even one drone has good talent, Ye Jingcheng will have made a profit.
After collecting the honey from the Five Poison Bee, Ye Jingcheng released the Jade Ring Rat.
Seeing that its territory had expanded, the Jade Ring Rat flapped its lively ears even more joyfully.
After breaking through to the late stage of Tier 1, the Jade Ring Rat became even more intelligent.
Ye Jingcheng gave the Jade Ring Rat two more spirit pills, instructing it to continue turning over the spirit soil, before returning to his own courtyard.
Ye Jingcheng walked to the Wood Demon and touched the dark brown bark, which still had some peach sap on it. It was indeed a spirit peach tree.
The fact that the spirit peach tree could become Wood Demon surprised Ye Jingcheng.
After all, peach trees are too ordinary.
This Wood Demon's talent in the Treasure Book is quite formidable.
The Wood Demon didn't even look at Ye Jingcheng, seemingly still resentful that Ye Jingcheng had so easily formed Soul Pact with it.
"You agreed when the contract was established!" Ye Jingcheng couldn't help but say.
But all they could hear was the tree shaking continuously, yet it still didn't look at Ye Jingcheng, and even seemed to be running away.
However, the next moment, Ye Jingcheng placed his hand on the peach tree, and a burst of Treasure Radiance surged forth.
The Wood Demon was startled, for it noticed that the branches of the peach tree were still faintly showing signs of green.
But the greenery quickly disappeared again.
Ye Jingcheng also stopped what he was doing. Seeing this, he knew perfectly well that this Wood Demon was still determined to escape, never giving up and never sprouting again.
Moreover, the Soul Pact can sense that the other party's roots are constantly falling onto the Soul Pact, trying to sever Soul Pact.
It's a pity that while he could deal with ordinary Blood Pact, Ye Jingcheng's Soul Pact was enhanced by the Treasure Book within his body.
It's not that easy to solve.
Ye Jingcheng walked directly into the room, leaving the Wood Demon standing there in a daze.
It didn't know what Ye Jingcheng had just given it, but at that moment, it saw hope for advancement.
Its eyes instantly shifted from resentment to submission, and then from submission back to resentment.
Before it could stop, the Golden-Scaled Beast, seeing that no one was outside, growled again and ran out of the Earth-Aspect Beast's enclosure.
He ran and shouted, as if to say, "It's time to train!"
Next, the Wood Demon was utterly humiliated and trembled incessantly!
The entire courtyard was bustling with activity!
After another night of cultivation, Ye Jingcheng opened his eyes and felt the flow of the four elements within his body.
The three-colored spiritual light was not only constantly condensing, but also nourishing his inner self.
His spiritual platform resembled a tri-colored sun, but it was still missing the wood element. If he could truly achieve a balance of the four elements, Ye Jingcheng wouldn't believe the speed at which his strength was increasing.
Currently, the Three-Color Cloud Deer is progressing very quickly, as is the Wood Demon. Ye Jingcheng estimates that it will also be able to Beast Communion in the future.
Achieving four-phase equilibrium is not a major problem.
The troubles that plagued other members of the Ye Family with Beast-Link Mark were not apparent to him.
This is also why the Ye Family did not strongly support the Five Spirit Root.
Even if you have multiple Spirit Root, you can only choose Cultivation Practice Method that have a single or dual attribute.
Those who can obtain five inches of the Beast-Link Mark are already rare geniuses in the Ye Family.
Even Ye Jingcheng, without the Seven-inch Beast-Link Mark in the Treasure Book, would not have enough Five-Inch Beast-Link Mark.
This is also why Ye Haitian advised Ye Jingcheng against cultivating the Four-Aspect Heavenly Origin Scripture.
At this moment, Ye Jingcheng also wondered how fast the five cultivators would move if they were to cultivate together.
Unfortunately, he doesn't have a golden Spirit Root.
Ye Jingcheng shook his head, recalling how he had initially complained about his four Spirit Root being too poor, but now he complained about having too few Spirit Root.
Ye Jingcheng stepped out of the house, looked at the morning sun, and then took some spiritual tea and fruits with him, heading towards Ye Haiyun's house.
Tomorrow is Ye Jingyong's big day, Ye Haiyun has also returned from the market today.
He still wanted to visit them, and not just Ye Haiyun, but also Ye Haiping and Ye Haitian, these elders who had taken care of him in the past.
By the time he returned from the three homes, it was already dusk. For mortals, a day is extremely short, and for cultivators, it is even shorter.
Fortunately, a cultivator's lifespan can be continuously increased.
Just as he was about to return home, the Lineage Token rang.
I've contacted that legendary Second Ancestor.
Ye Jingcheng suppressed his excitement and, as usual, headed towards the spirit lake on the Lineage mountain.
The area around Soaring Cloud Peak, from the Council Hall to the Ancestral Shrine, is considered a forbidden zone.
Normally, clansmen cannot come here. Beyond the Ancestral Shrine lies the Spirit Beast Valley, which Ye Jingcheng visited once.
Behind the Spirit Beast Valley lies a Spirit Lake.
This sacred lake atop the mountain is home to many sacred fish, including the Red-Node Fish.
Although the Ye Family raises many spirit fish, most of them are given to the clansmen, while a few end up in the mouths of the Ye Family's Spirit Beast.
It was not sold.
Previously, because they were Foundation Establishment Lineage, they did not compete with the Mo Family.
Linghu Lake is very large, at least larger than Ye Jingcheng had imagined. The lake water is incredibly blue-green, making it appear exceptionally vast.
"Jingcheng!" A majestic voice rang out, and Ye Jingcheng looked ahead. He saw the spirit lake part in two, and a white-haired figure walked out.
Behind the white-haired figure stood Ye Haicheng, his expression utterly serious.
In the eyes of all Ye Family members, Ye Haiyi was the most strict, while Ye Haicheng was undoubtedly the most feared.
And since the most feared newborn Purple Mansion was still lagging behind, the identity of the cultivator before him was already obvious.
"Jingcheng greets Second Great-Uncle and Great-Grandfather!" Ye Jingcheng said respectfully.
After speaking, he continued to scrutinize his second great-uncle, Ye Xuecang, whose name had only been recorded in the Ancestral Shrine.
Although the other person had white hair, their appearance was still that of someone in their sixties.
"Let's talk in the lake!" Ye Xuecang said, Ye Jingcheng also walked towards the Spirit Lake, which had two channels.
Stepping into this sacred lake is like entering a new world; it is truly magical.
At this moment, Ye Jingcheng couldn't tell whether this was Grotto-Heaven in the lake or a formation within a formation.
