Parting with Heavy Hearts; The One Who Came Out with Ancestor Ling
The scene in the distance was truly breathtaking.
The gentle rain continued to fall, a soft, persistent drizzle.
In such an environment, the enormous Silver Moon Demon King, like a soaring Silver Moon fortress, shone brilliantly in the sky.
It was like a god in the entire sky, its power seemingly even more awe-inspiring than that of the Earth Dragon Demon King.
That terrifying tail stirred up rows of menacing scales and barbs.
Each swing was like a crescent moon lashing down, creating countless ripples in the void.
These scales can also transform into countless tiny Silver Moon spirit blades, which shoot out densely, like raindrops.
Unfortunately, these spirit blades also have illusions, making them impossible to guard against and impossible to find out which one is the real one.
Meanwhile, Ancient Fragrance True Person and Chengyun True Person below them were like rats crossing the street, suffering terribly and could only frantically flee.
They wore Spirit-Isolating Robe, their eyes filled with confusion.
They didn't know why, even though they were just secretly searching for evidence, they suddenly encountered Beast Tide.
Moreover, the agreements made with the Demon Race in the past have not been effective today.
On the contrary, they seemed even more enraged because they were wearing the Spirit-Isolating Robe.
Even though they kept chanting that the Demon King wouldn't enter the pass, it had absolutely no effect.
Although they were both at the Golden Core Early Stage, they both broke through to the False Core realm by using the Demon Beast Cores of the Golden Demon Kings.
How could they possibly withstand the attack of the Silver Moon Demon King without any Array? You must know that the Silver Moon Demon King is not only a late-stage Great Demon King, but also a transformed dragon. Dragons and pythons are already vastly different.
The two each took out their natal magic Law Treasure and a large number of Spirit Talisman, desperately resisting.
At that moment, the two wished they could turn all their Law Treasures into tools for escaping.
After all, the False Core energy emanating from them was also a great tonic for the Demon King.
Kong Guxiang's Law Treasure was a bronze mirror that released large swaths of blue light, but this blue light was easily torn apart by the claws of the Silver Moon Demon King.
The biggest difference between a dragon and a python is that a dragon has two claws on its belly and a single horn on its head.
Once those claws were unleashed, Kong Guxiang's prized natal magic Law Treasure proved utterly ineffective.
Her face turned deathly pale instantly.
They quickly retreated to the side.
Meanwhile, Jin Chengyun's natal magic Law Treasure was a huge Mountain-Splitting Shield.
Although they could withstand it, it was extremely difficult.
As the enormous silver tail left a trail of shadows in the air, it once again smashed their Law Treasure away.
If it weren't for the fact that each of them used a series of strange Spirit Talisman, even Kong Guxiang, Movement Method was slightly slower, would have been in danger.
"Go to the Ye Family's Soaring Cloud Peak. There's Array there, even if it's only a third-tier Array, it could give us a chance to catch our breath!" Kong Guxiang immediately said, though she also knew that even if they went to Soaring Cloud Peak, they might still perish.
But if they can hold out for just a little while, they might be able to get reinforcements from Jade Dragon Valley.
Although Jade Dragon Valley is far from the Ye Family, that's relative.
For a Golden Core cultivator, if they fly at full speed, they can arrive in less than half an hour.
Faced with the Demon King's entry into the pass, they had naturally sent out distress signals long ago.
Jin Chengyun, standing beside him, couldn't help but glance at the Silver Moon Demon King. The thought that he had originally wanted to suggest that they each run away was swallowed back down.
Although his natal magic Law Treasure is the Mountain-Splitting Shield, its defense and survivability are probably much greater than Kong Guxiang's.
But now their auras have been locked onto by the Silver Moon Demon King. If Kong Guxiang dies, he definitely won't live much longer either.
As for the Lineage they brought, they couldn't care less. If they were there, the Kong Family and Jin Families wouldn't fall; if they weren't there, even if the remaining members of the Jin Family and Kong Families survived, they would still be doomed.
When one lacks strength, the higher one's status, the more likely one is to suffer.
Moreover, their people are now surrounded by Beast Tide.
Only two Purple Mansion have a chance of escaping; the rest of the clan will likely perish here.
Having faced the Earth Dragon Demon King, the Three-Eyed Demon King, and the Cloud Lion Demon King for so long, they were now completely confused about the Silver Moon Demon King's methods.
The Beast Tide continued to surge out, the rain intensified, and the sky appeared even more gloomy.
Even though the Treasure Ark was moving extremely fast, not a single ray of light could be seen, and fear began to appear in the eyes of all the Ye Family members.
A long-lost silence settled over everyone.
Especially when they saw the powerful demons chasing after them, their faces turned ashen.
Some even suggested that they each flee, or hide underground and escape using concealment Spirit Talisman.
However, seeing Ye Haicheng desperately trying to activate the Treasure Ark, a glimmer of hope appeared in everyone's eyes.
After all, the Demon King later went to chase after the Jin Family and the Kong Family patriarch.
At this moment, even the clansmen in the Inner Hall, who had known about the Beast Tide beforehand, were filled with extreme fear.
After all, they didn't know the Beast Tide would be so fierce.
Even Ye Xingliu, Ye Jingcheng, and Ye Haicheng were filled with trepidation at this moment.
The Demon King cannot enter the pass, nor can he attack ordinary cultivators.
Even Beast Tide!
This is also the common name agreed upon by the three clans of the Yan Kingdom and the Demon Race of the Taihang Mountain Range.
The appearance of the Jin Family and Kong Family ancestors was a complete misfortune.
Even with the unexpected appearance of the Jin Family and Kong Families, it was still extremely dangerous for everyone, because many Golden Lizard Great Demons, as well as Armored Beasts and Golden-Scaled Beast demons, had appeared behind them.
The distance is constantly being shortened.
Ye Haicheng was only at the early stage of the Purple Mansion, and the Ye Family's Treasure Ark was not a top-grade third-tier magic Law Treasure. Facing the third-tier great demon behind them, they were completely unable to shake them off.
Ye Haicheng's eyes were terrifyingly gloomy at this moment. He looked into the distance, seemingly pondering something. As if sensing that the distance of his Divine Sense was far enough, he raised an eyebrow!
"All clansmen with more than eighty members shall form the first echelon and, if necessary, cover the rear for the rest of the clansmen. All escaped Spirit Talisman shall be handed over!" At this moment, it was Ye Xingliu who spoke.
He was the first to land at the very back of the Treasure Ark, and at the same time began to activate the Array.
As soon as these words were spoken, many elders of the Ye family began to head towards the back of the treasure ship, including elders such as Ye Haiping and Ye Haiyang.
"Jingli, Jingyun, you're both eighty years old? Jingcheng, you go back too!" But the next moment, Ye Xingliu directly rebuked him angrily.
They forcefully stopped Ye Jingcheng and his group from their tracks.
"Jingcheng, are you going to lose your temper again today? As the head of the family, how can you act on impulse?" Ye Xingliu shouted.
"Go back!"
His gaze was particularly frightening at that moment.
Ye Jingcheng had no choice but to stop and take a step back.
Ye Jingli and Ye Jingyun were still somewhat stubborn, biting their lips and unwilling to back down, but after another glare from Ye Xingliu, they finally retreated.
Those who stay behind do not necessarily die; it may be a release.
Those who remain do not necessarily survive; more likely, they bear the burden!
Soon, more than twenty people had fallen behind the Spirit Boat.
Among them, fifteen were at the late stage of Qi Refining, and seven were at the middle stage of Qi Refining.
Ye Xingliu was in the Foundation Establishment stage, Purple Mansion was in the Ye Haicheng. Ye Haicheng handed the Treasure Ark to Ye Jingcheng and also gave Ye Jingcheng a storage ring.
Without a word, just a simple glance, it was as if the entire handover of the Lineage had been completed.
All the young and old members of the Ye Family couldn't help but feel their eyes fog up, as if the rain had already penetrated the Array and fallen in front of them.
Ye Haicheng, Ye Xingliu, and the others landed from the Array and remained in the air. They turned around and blocked the great demon behind them.
Ye Jingcheng continued to steer the Treasure Ark away into the distance.
Ye Jingcheng couldn't control the Treasure Ark, since he didn't have True Essence, but Ye Haicheng had already poured enough True Essence into it, enough for Ye Jingcheng to control and fly for a while.
Once the allotted time had passed, Ye Jingcheng would put away the Treasure Ark and replace it with his own Mysterious Shadow Azure Cloud Boat.
Ye Haicheng and the elders of the Ye family indeed attracted the attention of all the golden lizard armored beast demons.
On the Treasure Ark, the cultivators all fell silent.
Especially Ye Jingli and Ye Jingyun, whose hands were already bleeding from pinching each other, their eyes were somewhat vacant.
Perhaps they never imagined such a scene, and naturally, they cannot accept it.
Of course, all the members of the Ye Family couldn't help but look at Ye Jingcheng.
Ye Jingcheng was not old, nor was he particularly robust.
This patriarch, who has only been in office for six years, has now become the hope for the future of the Ye Family. From this day forward, the Ye Family will no longer be Purple Mansion Lineage, but will once again become a Foundation Establishment Lineage.
I don't know how much time passed; it might have been the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, or it might have been half an hour.
At this moment, they were somewhat numb to time, their minds filled only with the fact that the Beast Tide had not caught up, and their only hope was that a few of the Ye Family Clan Elders could escape by sheer luck.
Once we reach a safe place, we can reunite with them.
The Treasure Ark had run out of True Essence and could no longer be activated, so Ye Jingcheng released the Mysterious Shadow Azure Cloud Boat, and all his spiritual light poured into the Spirit Boat.
Ye Jingli and Ye Jingyun remained at the back of the Spirit Boat.
At this moment, although no one spoke, the clansmen, numbering over sixty, gathered at the back on their own.
It was as if they could do it again, just like before.
Ye Jingcheng's eyes were touched; he felt that this might be the belief he had been pursuing for over sixty years.
Finally, a glimmer of light emerged from behind the gloomy, rainy day.
He was like the dawn, dispelling the misty rain Dark Clouds.
As the beam of light became clearer, everyone saw that it was an even larger golden coin.
It sparked a dazzling light in the air.
This copper coin is clearly a magical Law Treasure that combines speed and defense.
Several cultivators also stood on the copper coin.
Among them was a Tianfu True Person, dressed in a purple robe.
There's also Taihao Master, who just escaped, and Master Tianzhen recently appeared.
Besides these, there were several other venerable figures whom Ye Jingcheng did not recognize.
But without a doubt, this is Jade Dragon Valley's support for the Ye Family.
Ye Jingcheng then piloted the Spirit Boat away.
Upon arriving before his senior, Ye Jingcheng immediately knelt down.
"I beg Senior Tianfu to save my great-grandfather and the elders of the Ye family!" Ye Jingcheng kowtowed loudly.
Ye Jingcheng had no reservations about the nominal mentor in front of him.
It's perfectly normal to take on a master or elder.
This statement moved the Ye Family members even more.
Because the person standing before him was the head of the Ye Family.
They all knelt down in unison on the Spirit Boat, forming an extremely orderly scene.
No one looked up.
"I'll go first, you all go directly to Green Willow Lake!" Tianfu True Person did not stay behind to settle the Ye Family cultivators, but instead had Ye Jingcheng lead the remaining people towards Green Willow Lake.
The direction they were fleeing in was actually very close to Cloud-Spreading Mountain.
But Cloud-Spreading Mountain doesn't have a third-tier Spirit Vein, so he can't protect it at all.
Upon hearing Tianfu True Person speak in this manner, Ye Jingcheng nodded. After the copper coin and Ancient Treasure had flown far away, everyone stood up one after another.
Ye Jingcheng didn't have time for much grief.
He continued leading the Ye Family members toward Cloud-Spreading Mountain.
Although Tianfu True Person assigned them to guard Green Willow Lake, Cloud-Spreading Mountain still had many members of the Ye Family.
In addition, the mortal members of the Ye Family also need to migrate towards Green Willow Lake.
"Sixth Brother, Ninth Brother, you two go and inform the mortals of the Lineage that they can migrate on their own; they don't need to accompany them."
Ye Jingcheng looked at Ye Jingli and Ye Jingyun.
The mortals near Soaring Cloud Peak didn't have time to speak, but Cloud-Spreading Mountain still needed to be notified in advance.
Fortunately, since blood cultivators had appeared before, the mortals of the Ye Family had also moved towards Green Willow Lake accordingly.
So, we're just letting them know. As for how many mortals will be left behind, the Ye Family has no idea.
In short, the Ye Family has already made an effort.
Cloud-Spreading Mountain, the Ye Family's Array was already in full swing. Almost as soon as Ye Jingcheng arrived, the Ye Family members had already packed up the spirit medicine and various treasures there.
As for the spirit field courtyard, it had to be abandoned. Only the lower-ranking members of the Ye Family cherished such an external possession.
After all, for them, the output of that one spiritual field in a year might be the Cultivation Resources for the next few years.
Now, as the head of the family, he has an extremely clear understanding of the Ye Family's procedures.
Before the early stages of Qi Refining and the fifth level of Qi Refining, the Ye Family would not pay much attention to them, only teaching them Cultivation Method and introductory methods for the four arts of cultivation.
As for subsequent Law Technique and advancements in the four arts of cultivation, the Ye Family members will need to participate on their own.
Only after reaching the fifth level of Qi Refining, or becoming a mid-grade first-level master craftsman, will one be allowed to enter the Inner Hall of the Ye Family and exercise the right to vote for each clan member.
Only if more than half of the clan members vote in favor, and after passing an assessment, can the Beast-Link Mark be performed.
For example, Ye Jingyu has yet to receive the opportunity to be summoned by his Lineage's Beast Communion.
Before going to Taichang Market, their achievements were insufficient, but afterwards, the Ye Family never stopped making progress.
There are quite a few members of this clan, and they are all concentrated in the mid-stage of Qi Refining.
Currently, Ye Jinghu, who has the highest number of votes, is the one with the Thunder Spirit Root. Eight years have passed, and Ye Jinghu is now eighteen years old and has reached the fifth level of Qi Refining, which is considered an extremely fast cultivation speed.
Moreover, as far as the Ye Family is concerned, as long as Ye Jinghu's Beast-Link Mark is not bad, he can be considered another genius that the Ye Family is cultivating.
As time went by, the outline of Green Willow Mountain appeared in the distance.
The authorities are taking this very seriously.
"Fellow Daoist Ye, why has Beast Tide suddenly appeared?" Golden Jade Hall, seeing the Ye Family and others appear from afar, immediately flew out to question them.
Behind him Purple Mansion of the Jin Family, and Jin Zongliang of the Jin Family was also behind him.
His gaze was extremely aggressive, as if he wanted to interrogate Ye Jingcheng.
After all, by this point, the Chu Family was gone, and the Ye Family was an obstacle to the development of the Jin Family and Kong Families.
"Brother Jin, I don't know either, but it seems that the Silver Moon Demon King came after your ancestor..."
