Current Cultivation Level

After several rounds of drinks, the crowd dispersed.

Ye Jingcheng also returned to his room. He sat at the table and poured himself a sip of the long-awaited Spring Welcoming Tea.

As the tea entered his throat, a refreshing aroma filled his entire body.

The fever that had been rising in his body from the Star-Eating Fish and the Blue Wave Wine seemed to have subsided considerably.

His eyes were clearer, and he shook his head, dispelling all the melancholy.

He then sat on the stone bed and began to circulate the Four-Aspect Heavenly Origin Scripture.

As the four elements of spiritual energy circulated within his body, a faint mist evaporated around him and quickly dissipated into the air.

This is the aroma of Blue Wave Wine.

As the alcohol dissipated, only the spiritual Spiritual Qi from the food he had just consumed remained in his body.

For cultivators, this kind of spiritual food still needs to be refined in time; otherwise, the impure Spiritual Qi will be automatically expelled.

Therefore, the effect of spiritual food is simply to satisfy the desire for sustenance.

He certainly wouldn't waste the Spiritual Qi of these spiritual dishes.

The Four-Aspect Heavenly Origin Scripture circulated once more, and his thoughts began to gradually become peaceful. With the help of the tea, he quickly immersed himself in cultivation.

Two full hours passed before Ye Jingcheng finally opened his eyes.

"If my Foundation Establishment Middle Stage should be considered the fifth level of Foundation Establishment, right?"

Looking into his body, Ye Jingcheng saw that the Four Aspects of Spiritual Light was extremely dense and the Spiritual Qi was incredibly condensed, and he couldn't help but excitedly speculate.

Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining are different. Qi Refining uses gaseous Spiritual Qi, which is easy to observe in terms of concentration and quantity, so it can be subdivided into nine levels.

However, once you reach the Foundation Establishment, gaseous spiritual energy has already transformed into liquid spiritual energy, and the degree of spiritual energy refinement is not as easy to classify as it is in the Qi Refining stage.

Therefore, the Cultivation World is only divided into early, middle, and late stages of Foundation Establishment.

It should be noted that he had only broken through to the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage a little over a year ago, and he was already very satisfied with his current cultivation level.

Of course, he also knew that his rapid progress was due to two reasons: first, the Three-Color Cloud Deer had broken through, and second, the Wood Demon was now able to stay in the Stone Spirit Grotto-Heaven, replenishing his Wood Attribute spiritual power.

Compared to before, the four phases were much more balanced, which caused his cultivation to accelerate considerably.

The Four-Aspect Heavenly Origin Scripture its four phases, which is indeed a flaw in the Cultivation Method. However, if it is balanced, it will also be an advantage of the Cultivation Method!

Therefore, the Ye Family could only roughly assess the specific level of this Cultivation Method as Xuan rank, and the distinction between upper, middle and lower levels remained ambiguous.

At this moment, the water element is the strongest within him, followed by the fire element.

Within the Beast-Link Mark, four distinct spiritual energies continued to flow into his body like gentle streams.

Through observation, he was pleasantly surprised to find that the Spiritual Qi of the Crimson Flame Fox and the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon had increased slightly again.

It seems like he's almost there to break through to the late stage of the second tier.

Thinking of this, Ye Jingcheng instantly took out the Stone Spirit and then entered the Grotto-Heaven.

The area was divided, organized, and the soil was filled into the secret territory.

Now, a small mountain peak and a small Spirit Herb Garden have appeared within the Grotto-Heaven.

At the summit, a pavilion was set up. Of course, this pavilion was no ordinary object; it was a First-Tier Superior-Grade Law Artifact.

This was also something he found among his many spoils of war, and he used it directly in his Grotto-Heaven.

Above the Spirit Herb Garden is the Spirit Eye Spring, which Ye Jingcheng had set up and is protected by Array.

The area outside the Spirit Eye Spring is surrounded by Purple Jade Vine.

At this moment, the withered Purple Jade Vine have begun to show a hint of purple.

The presence of purple indicates that the Purple Jade Vine can survive here, meaning that it is possible to cultivate the Purple Jade Vine within his Grotto-Heaven.

Whether it will bear fruit or not depends on whether it grows after the purple hue has spread throughout all the vines. If it doesn't grow, Ye Jingcheng will have no choice but to transplant it and let the Lineage cultivate it.

Of course, even if it succeeds, it will take a considerable number of years for the Purple Jade Vine to mature.

Ye Jingcheng quickly stopped looking at the Purple Jade Vine and the other spirit medicine. He looked at the Crimson Flame Fox he had placed in the pavilion and the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon in the distance.

The Jade-Scale Flood Dragon landed in a low-lying area of the entire secret realm, the complete opposite of the Crimson Flame Fox, as if it were about to create a swamp there.

Upon seeing Ye Jingcheng emerge, the Crimson Flame Fox in the distance immediately trotted up and ran to Ye Jingcheng. It chirped as if expressing its longing and kept rubbing its forehead against Ye Jingcheng's robes.

It has shrunk now, and its cries sound quite urgent, as if it wants Ye Jingcheng to pick it up.

The Crimson Flame Fox performed well in the secret realm, so Ye Jingcheng picked it up and indeed discovered that its cultivation had reached the peak of the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage.

As the first bloodline Spirit Beast to consume a second-tier Crimson Flame Pill, the Crimson Flame Fox has been leading the pack.

Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng also took out several inner cores of the Red Roc and the Fire-Swallowing Sparrow Demon Beast Core from his body. When he was exploring the Red Glow Ridge, he had killed quite a few Fire Attribute Demon Beast.

He planned to give all the Beast Blood, to the Crimson Flame Fox so that it could break through to the late stage of the second tier sooner.

This will further boost his cultivation level.

Of course, he still wanted to study elixirs centered on inner cores, and he might have to ask the cultivators of his Lineage's Hidden Peak about this.

If nothing unexpected happens, the Ye Family should have already established a foothold in the Azure Cloud Sea Region.

They should have also collected some Pill Formula for refining pills from the inner cores of Demon Beast Core.

He planned to return to Soaring Cloud Peak once the auction was over.

Of course, if possible, he would also like to go to the Azure Cloud Sea Region to see what it's like.

Ye Jingcheng fed the Crimson Flame Fox a Purple Lotus Pill, which was also a second-tier Fire Attribute spiritual Purple Lotus Pill and one of his spoils of war. There was only one, so he rewarded the Crimson Flame Fox with it.

After feeding the Crimson Flame Fox with Spirit Beast meat and spirit pills, Ye Jingcheng looked at the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon in the distance. He saw that the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon's injuries had almost completely healed.

It lay there, its mouth wide open, revealing its menacing fangs.

Furthermore, through comparison, Ye Jingcheng also discovered that the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon's fangs seemed to have become even sharper due to Xu Hanqing's ordeal.

At this moment, the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon was still roaring softly, its roar somewhat like a Flood Dragon's roar, and somewhat like a snake's hiss.

This is because the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon is only a half-flood dragon, and its vocal cords have not been completely transformed. Through the Soul Pact, Ye Jingcheng also knows that the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon at this moment wants Beast Blood to eat and to soak in the Spirit Eye Spring.

Ye Jingcheng naturally couldn't agree to the latter's unreasonable request. He simply took out a few Cloud Lion and Flame Wolf corpses and fed the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon a meal. He also discovered that the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon's aura was now stronger than that of the Crimson Flame Fox.

In other words, the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon may break through to the late stage of the second tier earlier than the Crimson Flame Fox.

It's highly likely that a breakthrough will be achieved in two to three years.

This made Ye Jingcheng even more excited.

It should be noted that Crimson Flame Fox broke through almost a year earlier than Jade Lin.

"Roar!" After feeding the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon and the Crimson Flame Fox, a low roar came from afar.

Then the Golden-Scaled Beast came running over with great joy.

Its mouth was dripping with saliva, revealing half of its fangs, and it was leaping excitedly.

It seemed to be telling Ye Jingcheng that it was also working very hard in the secret realm, and that it also wanted elixirs, Spirit Beast meat, and Treasure Radiance.

Ye Jingcheng didn't hesitate. He even went out of his way to hunt down several Armored Beasts and Golden-Scaled Beast, which outnumbered the Red Roc and Fire-Swallowing Sparrow in terms of carnivorousness.

The Golden-Scaled Beast was also extremely excited, as if swallowing it would allow it to defeat the Crimson Flame Fox, the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon, and the Three-Color Cloud Deer.

Even its disdainful gaze swept over all the Spirit Beast in the Grotto-Heaven.

Of course, upon seeing the Golden Falcon perched on the pavilion, it couldn't help but shrink its neck.

It's really scared of that!

Moreover, the latter will never tolerate its provocations.

After all, the other Spirit Beast listened to Ye Jingcheng, but that Golden Falcon didn't!

Ye Jingcheng channeled a bit of Treasure Radiance into the Golden-Scaled Beast, and then spoke:

"You need to work harder. I'll prepare some elixirs for your advancement in a few months, so don't let me down!"

Upon hearing this, its golden pupils lit up, and it seemed less afraid of the Golden Falcon now...

Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng felt somewhat helpless, but since the Golden-Scaled Beast had such ambition, he couldn't very well discourage it.

One of the records in the Ye Family's guidelines on raising Spirit Beast is that the Spirit Beast's confidence is very important.

Ye Jingcheng finally looked at the Three-Color Cloud Deer.

The Three-Color Cloud Deer the shortest breakthrough time, and at this moment it was constantly moving around the Spirit Herb Garden, absorbing any dew it saw.

However, this Grotto-Heaven is still in its initial stage, with very little rain and dew. Only when the Spiritual Qi of the Spirit Eye Spring is released will a drop or two of spiritual dew form on the spirit medicine.

But the Three-Color Cloud Deer continued running around with great enthusiasm.

They were afraid of missing even a single drop of the spiritual dew.

"The nose seems a bit bigger!" Ye Jingcheng looked at the Three-Color Cloud Deer with a sudden look of surprise.

Within the secret realm, the remnant souls and blood shadows of figures like Kong Wanling of the Kong Family, as well as the remnant soul of the Corpse Daoist, were all consumed by the Three-Color Cloud Deer. At this moment, he was also afraid that something might happen to the Three-Color Cloud Deer.

Such as soul-stealing or possession.

After a thorough examination and questioning through the Soul Pact, not only was nothing discovered, but good news was also received: the Three-Color Cloud Deer's ability to absorb food had become even stronger.

He inhaled with all his might, and Ye Jingcheng felt that his Divine Soul was momentarily out of sync with his physical body.

This clearly indicates that the Three-Color Cloud Deer seems to have mutated.

This made Ye Jingcheng even happier.

Ye Jingcheng summoned the Three-Color Cloud Deer to his side, fed it some spirit medicine, and then infused it with a great deal of Treasure Radiance.

The Three-Color Cloud Deer stood proudly with its chest puffed out, excitedly stamping its hooves.

He plans to focus on nurturing all four Spirit Beast going forward.

He needed to prepare for the Three-Color Cloud Deer and the Golden-Scaled Beast to advance their bloodlines, while he needed to prepare for the Crimson Flame Fox and the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon to break through.

On the contrary, Ye Jingcheng didn't even feed the Golden Falcon on a regular basis.

Sometimes, you can tell whether Spirit Beast has submitted just by looking into its eyes.

At this moment, Golden Falcon was clearly forced to submit because of his Soul Pact, and his eyes occasionally revealed a hint of ferocity.

Ye Jingcheng wasn't surprised by this; the Wood Demon had been just as principled back then.

But now, the Peachwood Demon will also solidify the Spirit Soil within his Grotto-Heaven, and he will even put more effort into making the spirit peaches.

It's just a matter of training the eagle; Ye Jingcheng has plenty of time to do that.

Moreover, the Golden Falcon doesn't help his cultivation much; it's more of an aid or a speed boost when escaping.

After inspecting all four Spirit Beasts and the Golden Falcon, Ye Jingcheng used his Treasure Radiance to catalyze the Wood Demon. Currently, he hasn't gathered enough Shi Fang and wood, and he plans to ask the Jin Family and the sect to come up with a solution together.

Wood Demon can prolong life, while Stone Spirit can expand the entire Grotto-Heaven and increase intelligence; both are quite important to Ye Jingcheng.

After dealing with the matters of the Grotto-Heaven, Ye Jingcheng began to examine the Five Poison Bee.

This time, his biggest loss in the secret realm wasn't anything else, but his Five Poison Bee.

Of the two thousand or so Five Poison Bee, apart from the Five Poison Bee left behind at Soaring Cloud Peak, he had less than three hundred Five Poison Bee left.

Even the second-tier Six-Color Bee have perished.

Next, he did not intend to select the most powerful and ferocious five- Five Poison Bee, but instead chose those with the best sense of smell and intelligence.

They formed an exploration team.

His attention then focused entirely on the last Spirit Beast pouch.

That's where the Thunder Rhinoceros Beetle was.
