Treasure Hunting with the Jade Disc; Interrogating the Clan Head
Green Willow Mountain, Green Willow Lake.
The water level of Green Willow Lake, which had already been breached, has dropped significantly.
Of course, this isn't because the water volume at Green Willow Mountain has decreased, but rather because there's a huge claw mark beneath Green Willow Lake.
Those were claw marks left by the Three-Eyed Demon King.
Miaofa True Person paused for a few moments before the claw marks.
After all, it was he and Xuandao True Person who faced the Three-Eyed Demon King more than a decade ago.
However, the result was not good. Without the help of the Array, the two of them could only barely save their lives with the help of Law Treasure.
The willows by the lake looked rather sparse at this moment, as if they hadn't fully stretched out even after more than ten years.
At this moment, footsteps sounded, and Miaofa True Person turned around. Seeing that it was Tianfu True Person, he bowed slightly.
"Senior Brother Tianfu." Miaofa True Person was only at the Golden Core Early Stage, while Tianfu True Person was at the middle stage, so Miaofa True Person still respected Tianfu True Person very much.
In particular, Tianfu True Person is a renowned Fourth Stage Alchemist and Fourth Stage Array. His dual identity gives him considerable influence within the Taiyi Sect.
"Senior Brother Tianfu, sometimes I wonder if the Three-Eyed Demon King really did it for its child, and not for some treasure?" Miaofa True Person asked with a puzzled look.
He also voiced the doubts he had kept hidden in his heart for many years.
At Red Glow Ridge, they tested the Three-Eyed Demon King, but he refused to say anything.
Moreover, the Beast Tide many years ago was indeed bizarre; it's impossible for the Mo Family to have stolen the offspring of the Three-Eyed Demon King.
It's even more impossible for cultivators from other Taihang Lineage.
After all, the entire Taihang Commandery suffered considerable losses during that Beast Tide.
"Whether it is or not is useless now, it has nothing to do with our Taiyi Sect!" Tianfu True Person held a jade plate in his hand.
The appearance of this jade plate also earned the approval of Miaofa True Person.
Indeed, Taiyi Sect desires now is peace.
This jade plate was distributed by the Penglai Immortal Sect of the Qin Kingdom, and it is said to be able to sense mysterious treasures.
The jade plate is now completely unresponsive, and the entire Taihang Commandery has already fallen.
He didn't trust the other spies and didn't bring the jade plate with him.
Today, the Xu Family, Ye Family, and Chu Family of Taihang Commandery are almost completely wiped out.
The rumor that the natural treasure was located in Taihang Commandery was thus disproven.
Therefore, even if the Three-Eyed Demon King really took the secret treasure from the Mo Family more than ten years ago, the Taiyi Sect cannot reveal it now.
Compared to the claims of a lost treasure and a completely fictitious treasure, the latter is more advantageous to the Taiyi Sect.
"Then, Uncle-Master..."
"Don't speak of it. It's common for us Golden Core cultivators to go into seclusion for thirty or forty years at a time, let alone the higher True Lord." Tianfu True Person interrupted Miaofa True Person directly.
He then walked away to continue examining the Fourth Stage Array.
For the Taiyi Sect, it is naturally not appropriate to discuss the True Lord at the moment, even though all the True Person are in a state of fear.
Instead of worrying about those things, we should think about how to protect Green Willow Mountain.
Given the current situation, Taihang Commandery is absolutely not to be lost.
Without Taihang Commandery, the Taichang Mountain Range would face the Beast Tide head-on.
If the mortals within the Taiyi Sect's own territory were affected, the foundation of that conflict would be substantial.
The appearance of the Silver Moon Demon King this time indicates that the Beast Tide has expanded compared to previous ones, Demon Race may produce more Demon King, putting them under greater pressure.
A city wall has already been built around Green Willow Mountain. For cultivators, building a city wall is not difficult as long as they use Earth Attribute Law Technique.
Then, add the array patterns drawn by the Array and fill in some special materials.
With the grand formation covering the entire Green Willow Mountain, many cultivators were extremely confident in their ability to defend the Green Willow Mountain.
The city wall in front of the Ye Family was also reinforced by the Ye Family's own cultivators.
The materials were provided by the Jin Family, and the pretext was also good, since this was to protect the Jin Family's ancestral mountain. If the Jin Family didn't provide them, who would?
However, things were far from peaceful within an Array in front of the city wall.
Ye Jingcheng was meditating at the moment, but Ye Jingyong pulled Ye Jingli, and also brought over Ye Xing shui, Ye Haiyi and other Clan Elder the Xing generation.
Ye Jingcheng looked at his second brother with considerable surprise.
In his memory, his second brother had never been so proactive before.
Even Ye Jingli was somewhat surprised at this moment.
"Jingcheng, with such a huge blunder in the Lineage this time, I don't think you're suitable to be the head of the family anymore!" Ye Jingyong's words left everyone speechless.
Even Ye Jingcheng hadn't expected this at that moment.
The scene momentarily paused.
"Second brother, stop talking. This matter has nothing to do with the patriarch. It's because of the blood cultivator that all the Lineage members in the Ethereal Mountain Range have been withdrawn. Of course, even if they hadn't withdrawn, they probably wouldn't have been able to give any information. After all, that's the Silver Moon Demon King. Even the Kong Family's ancestor, a Golden Core True Person, has perished." Ye Jingli tried to speak from the side.
He felt that Ye Jingyong was acting somewhat irrationally today.
The remaining Clan Elder also nodded in agreement.
This really can't be blamed on Ye Jingcheng.
In fact, the Ye Family had issued a warning at the time and even held a clan meeting to explain the rampant blood cultivators and the relocation of mortals.
Although they didn't know where the mortals had migrated to, they knew that Ye Jingcheng had taken measures.
"It's alright, let Second Brother speak!" Ye Jingcheng also spoke up at this moment.
This remark surprised the others once again.
Only Ye Jingcheng had a look of joy on his face at this moment.
He had previously felt something was amiss, but now it seemed the problem was that the Ye Family was too peaceful.
A Lineage that has fallen apart, yet remains so united.
It should be noted that among these people, there are no Clan Elder are capable of maintaining the stability of the clan.
"Patriarch, don't blame your second brother for speaking bluntly. I admit you are strong and good at training Spirit Beast, but Fourth Brother had an accident in the Desolation-Suppressing Secret Realm. This time, the Lineage has fallen back to the Foundation Establishment Lineage. So many Clan Elders have had accidents. I think you need to give the Lineage an explanation!" Ye Jingyong's face hardened again as he continued to speak.
The others also fell into an unusual silence.
Regardless of the process, the result was indeed as Ye Jingyong said.
Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng also stood up. He put away the Array, and instantly all the members of the Ye Family appeared in front of Ye Jingcheng.
Ye Jingcheng made no attempt to hide anything at this moment.
"Fellow members of the Ye Family, Clan Elder, Jingcheng has served as the head of the Ye Family for six years, and this incident has occurred. I, Ye Jingcheng, cannot escape the blame. However, when Jingcheng accepted my great-grandfather's storage ring, it meant that I accepted the heavy responsibility of the Ye Family. In the future, I will think more carefully before acting, and strive to make the Ye Family stronger. I also ask that you, my fellow clansmen, give me ten years. If I fail, I, Ye Jingcheng, will voluntarily step down!" Ye Jingcheng 'Jingcheng words went from low spirits to high spirits, and finally he made a solemn vow.
Ye Jingcheng glanced around and noticed that the other clansmen, instead of being disappointed, looked at him with a sense of responsibility.
Of course, Ye Jingcheng felt strange about this scene.
But he remained outwardly calm and composed.
Upon seeing this, he even let out a long sigh of relief.
All the Ye Family's pretense, when laid bare here, is practically flawless!
"Patriarch, I am willing to accept punishment for today's offense. Next time there's Beast Tide, I will be at the forefront!" Ye Jingyong said.
Then it was Ye Jingli, and he nodded repeatedly.
This indicates that he also needs to be punished.
Ye Jingcheng felt somewhat helpless, but still nodded.
Now is the most important time for the Ye Family, so he really shouldn't refute Ye Jingli and Ye Jingyong too much over trivial matters.
After all, they are among the few Foundation Establishment cultivators remaining in the Ye Family.
After this commotion, everyone else became even more determined, and even those at the first and second levels of Qi Refining wanted to help.
But some of these are just teenagers, and they don't even know how to use many Law Techniques.
Naturally, Ye Jingcheng instructed Ye Xing shui to refuse.
After the city wall was completed, Ye Jingcheng stood on it. His Divine Sense continued to expand, and he saw the Beast Tide growing larger and larger.
Moreover, apart from the many Demon Beasts from Earth Dragon Valley, most of the other Demon Beast are from the territory of the Silver Moon Demon King.
It was unclear whether the Silver Moon Demon King had tasted the benefits of a cultivator's Golden Core or was truly enraged.
He sensed carefully and found that there were nearly twenty Silver Moon Python Great Demon in the distance.
Ye Jingcheng was extremely eager for the inner core of the Silver Moon Python, but he could only think about it.
After all, even if he managed to pick up a severely injured and lone Silver Moon Python Great Demon in the chaos, he wouldn't dare to go all out here.
His Jade-Scale Flood Dragon, Four-Colored Cloud Deer Thunder Rhinoceros Beetle Golden Falcon, and other treasures are actually not worth showing off.
The Ye Family has only been Purple Mansion Lineage for a short time, so they shouldn't have such a rich foundation.
At the same time, he was also looking for members of the Xu Family and Chu Family.
However, to his surprise, there wasn't a single one.
Moreover, even the Chen Family didn't have any.
This made him feel a sense of relief.
Fortunately, the Ye Family had made preparations in advance.
Otherwise, if the Ye Family hadn't caused the Blood Cultivator Rebellion or the Beast Tide, Ye Family would at least have been exposed, if not disappeared, or most of them would have been placed under house arrest.
Ye Jingcheng sighed inwardly for a moment, then shook his head, clearing his mind. Before it began, he continued to communicate with the other cultivators.
See if I can buy some life-saving Spirit Talisman.
The Ye Family certainly didn't lack Spirit Talisman or talismans, but for a declining Lineage, it was extremely insecure.
Therefore, Ye Jingcheng deliberately went through a long detour to exchange for some treasures.
To his surprise, he also managed to exchange some second-tier Peachwood Formula spirit medicine.
This was an unexpected bonus.
After completing these tasks, the Beast Tide launched its attack once more.
A sharp, piercing roar echoed throughout the heavens and earth.
It even made the rain, which was about to stop, start to fall again.
All the cultivators couldn't help but cover their ears, and in the sky, the Fourth Stage Array was instantly activated, Tianfu True Person Miaofa True Person, and Chengyun True Person also appeared.
Seeing the three great True Person appear together, ready to face the Silver Moon Demon King.
The faces of the monks below were also quite different.
The Jin Family was relieved, because compared to the Kong Family, at least Jin Family ancestor Jin Chengyun, was unharmed.
The Kong Family, on the other hand, harbored resentment. Why was the Jin Family's ancestor unharmed while their Kong Family's ancestor was dead? They even speculated that the Jin Family had deliberately killed their Kong Family's ancestor.
Otherwise, how could the injuries be so minor?
As for those mysterious, Rogue Cultivator in the market, they were naturally bewildered and lacked passion at this moment.
Faced with a hundred Demon Beast, they might be tempted, and might even try to find a way to provoke them.
But when they saw tens of thousands of Demon Beasts, they became terrified.
Moreover, everyone noticed that the third-tier Fire-Swallowing Sparrow and the Three-Eyed Demon Roc clan had reappeared in the distant sky.
This means that the Demon Race is no longer fighting individually, and the pressure on them is even greater.
Having a flying demon and not having a flying demon are two different things.
"Silver Moon, the Demon King will not leave his seclusion. This was decided jointly by many Demon Emperors and True Lord!!" Miaofa True Person tentatively challenged from his moral high ground.
However, the Silver Moon Demon King's eyes were filled with disdain.
They didn't seem to give Miaofa True Person a second glance.
It took a long time before he could make a sound using his abdominal cavity.
"Crawlers are only fit to be food!"
"How dare you! You're nothing more than a fourth-order python. Do you really think you're a dragon?" Miaofa True Person was also somewhat annoyed at this moment.
Since becoming a Golden True Person, he hadn't been spoken to like this for countless years, yet today he was insulted by a beast.
He immediately started cursing too.
This scene left Ye Jingcheng and the other cultivators somewhat dumbfounded.
But soon, Ye Jingcheng realized that this was Miaofa True Person provoking the Silver Moon Demon King.
However, the Silver Moon Demon King, being able to become Demon King, is naturally not stupid.
If you recklessly charge forward without the Array being restrained, you're very likely to become the dragon-slaying feast.
It let out a low roar, and countless Demon Beast surged towards Green Willow Mountain like a tidal wave.
In the sky, numerous water arrows, Earth Spike Technique, and fire feathers also appeared.
They all rushed towards the Array.
"Everyone, get to the city wall and hold our side first!" Ye Jingcheng shouted repeatedly.
At the same time, he took out the Lineage Token and transmitted his voice through the Lineage Token.
"Everyone, be careful! If any other Array are broken, run!"
Although the addition of so many cultivators to Taihang Marketplace has stabilized morale, the Beast Tide now also has the strength of Red Glow Ridge and Lion King Ridge.
In addition, there are those mysterious Rogue Cultivator in Taihang Marketplace, and there may be many who are only going through the motions.
It's highly likely that they deliberately concealed their strength.
The Array might actually have been broken then.
The other members of the Ye Family nodded in agreement, and Ye Jingcheng even had Ye Jinghu and Ye Jingting on either side of him.
In this way, he can keep an eye on both at any time.
Above them, Miaofa True Person and Tianfu True Person couldn't help but sigh.
The advantage of Array is their immense power, allowing cultivators to challenge opponents of higher levels.
However, its drawbacks include rigidity and poor maneuverability.
If they take the initiative, they might be killed one by one.
The Silver Moon Demon King is thick-skinned and tough, capable of killing one person while being attacked by another.
However, at that moment, several Silver Moon Python Great Demons in the sky saw Kong Yulong and Kong Wanjun of the Kong Family.
They immediately moved closer to the Silver Moon Demon King.
This scene left everyone bewildered and confused.
But the next moment, a roar that resounded through the clouds was heard.
"Reptile, die!" The Silver Moon Demon King charged towards the Array without regard for anything else.
Its enormous Silver Moon scale tail whipped out countless Silver Moon blades of light.
The impact struck the Array, causing a terrifying tremor. Everyone was even a little worried that the entire Green Willow Mountain would be flattened by this single blow.
However, everyone looked at Kong Yulong and Kong Wanjun, as if the Silver Moon Demon King's anger was caused by these two Kong Family cultivators.
Then, considering that the ancestors of the Kong Family and the Jin Family entered the Soaring Cloud Peak area!
Everyone was instantly filled with rage!
