Sect Arrangements; Jingyu's Thoughts

In the days that followed, Ye Jingcheng had some free time.

Take a look at your new identity, integrate it, immerse yourself in it, and then it's time to cultivate, refine pills, and feed the beasts.

Guang was extremely pleased to see the progress of the Golden-Scaled Beast and the Four-Colored Cloud Deer every day.

His identity in the Eastern Sea is Tang Cheng. He comes from a small fishing village and is skilled in Water Attribute Secret Method. For him, the difficulty lies in the spirit of a Rogue Cultivator.

Of course, Ye Jingcheng didn't need to be so harsh on himself. He probably wouldn't stay in the Azure Cloud Sea Region for long. Before a good family head was found in the Yan Kingdom, he would need to return to take charge.

As for the Ye Family as a whole, their focus will not be entirely on the Azure Cloud Sea Region.

After all, the most feared thing in the Azure Cloud Sea Region is the Beast Tide, which is different from the Beast Tide in the Taihang Mountain Range.

In the sea, the Demon Race is the absolute overlord.

When the Beast Tide arrives, the only option is to retreat, unless the Ye Family manages to forge a powerful overlord in the Azure Cloud Sea Region, someone like the Earth Dragon Demon King, to protect the Ye Family.

However, the difficulty was simply too high, which is why no Nascent Soul sects were stationed in the Azure Cloud Sea Region. Instead, a loose Golden Core alliance served as the front line, managing the cultivation resources of the Azure Cloud Sea Region.

The main way to obtain resources in the sea is by slaying Demon Beast or finding spirit medicine and other materials.

As for cultivation techniques, they are exceptionally poor, and no one knows how to cultivate them, especially high-level spirit medicine. Cultivating them is completely unprofitable and requires frequent changes in planting location.

In the Azure Cloud Sea Region, elixirs made from the Demon Beast Core are the most common, so the price of elixirs is relatively low, while the price of spirit medicine is relatively high.

Secondly, Law Artifacts are much cheaper in the Azure Cloud Sea Region than in the Yan Kingdom.

Some of the Purple Mansion inside, despite their Cultivation Method and Spiritual Qi not being as stable as those on the Yan Kingdom's side, are far more terrifying than those on the other side.

Because you never know if the Foundation Establishment cultivators over there will bring out Fourth Stage Talisman Treasures, or if the Purple Mansion cultivators will have Law Treasures far beyond your imagination.

There are also many secret realms and inheritance cave abode over there.

From the cave abode of Fourth Stage True Persons to cave abode of Foundation Establishment, there are even those who have received the mantle of True Lord.

The sea Demon Race are simply too powerful. Even Nascent Soul Cultivator venture deep into the sea cannot guarantee a safe return. Moreover, there are many independent cultivators there, so naturally, there are also more lost lineages Rogue Cultivator throughout the area.

Ye Jingcheng recalled the information in the Jade Slip and became quite interested in the inheritance cave abode within it.

Unlike the cave abode in the Yan Kingdom, which are almost all traps set by Bandit Cultivators, the treasure maps of those cave abode are quite credible.

However, it requires a higher level of skill.

Just then, the sound transmission talisman was heard again.

Ye Jingcheng looked at the communication talisman and couldn't help but smile. It was Ye Jingteng had arrived.

He hadn't even taken the initiative to approach Ye Jingteng, yet Ye Jingteng had come directly to him.

Ye Jingcheng walked out of the courtyard and flew towards the Council Hall.

Over there, Ye Jingli and Ye Xingqun were entertaining Ye Jingteng.

Within the Ye Family, Ye Jingli and Ye Xingqun were among the few who still maintained contact with Ye Jingteng. Not to mention, when Ye Jingteng was doing the Foundation Establishment mission, the four of them did it together. However, Ye Jingteng kept urging Ye Jingcheng to join the sect, which made Ye Xingqun Ye Jingli extremely disgusted with Ye Jingteng.

"Big brother!" Ye Jingcheng smiled.

"Jingcheng, I didn't hear from you last time I was in seclusion!" Ye Jingteng said with a hint of apology, but his expression was more excited than anything else.

"The Purple Extremity True Lord Ancestor has emerged from seclusion and will hold a grand ceremony in twenty years!" Ye Jingteng continued without waiting for Ye Jingcheng's reply.

As he spoke, he described the scene of that day in vivid detail, as if Ye Jingteng had witnessed it all firsthand in the Purple Extremity Hall.

He was always incredibly powerful, fighting against several True Lord single-handedly. When the Purple Extremity Hall was destroyed, no one could stop him in front of the Purple Extremity Dojo. Finally, his world-destroying palm strike was like an eternal lament.

He spoke with great emotion, and even Ye Jingcheng felt that the scene was truly awe-inspiring.

You should know that he had been to the Taichang Mountain Range knew how vast and boundless they were.

Moreover, the scene where several True Person were helpless against him, only to have him killed with a single palm strike by the True Lord, was truly exhilarating.

After listening for a while, Ye Jingcheng felt that it was a bit deliberate, as if he was being tested on purpose.

It's really hard to believe that several True Person couldn't defeat a Flying Puppet.

"If this is true, it is truly a great blessing for me!" Although he thought this in his heart, he still showed the same excitement on the surface.

Making Ye Jingteng happy will make it easier to exchange for spirit medicine and treasures in the future.

"It's estimated that Purple Extreme Patriarch has made another leap forward. I don't know how far he is from Spirit Transformation Lord, but I can foresee that the sect's sphere of influence will continue to grow. It's even very possible that they will push Jade Dragon Valley forward by thousands of miles!" Ye Jingteng couldn't help but imagine at this moment.

Ye Jingcheng nodded repeatedly.

If one can truly break through to the Divine Lord level, then progress will naturally follow.

The worst fear is that it's all just wishful thinking.

Ye Jingcheng didn't dwell on the matter of Purple Extremity True Lord for long, but instead transmitted his voice to Ye Jingli and Ye Xingqun.

Upon hearing Ye Jingcheng's telepathic message, Ye Jingli and the others also departed.

Next, he was going to talk to Ye Jingteng about exchanging sect treasures. Although it wasn't a big deal, he still had to be careful since it involved a lot of things.

The key is to get Ye Jingteng to do it voluntarily.

Although he exchanges some spirit medicine with Liu Huan now, Liu Huan is an outsider after all, so he can't exchange for treasures of the third rank or higher.

But Ye Jingteng is different.

Although his direction was completely different from that of the Ye Family, he still had some affection for them.

However, even so, if possible, Ye Jingcheng still needs to find another market.

Those who frequent Taiyi Sect will eventually be caught.

"Brother, try the Lineage's newest second-tier Floating Cloud Tea!" Ye Jingcheng poured some spiritual tea for Ye Jingteng, and at the same time quietly took out a jade box of spiritual tea.

These spiritual teas are all second-tier Floating Cloud Teas.

"Brother, we can bring more of this spiritual tea for your master, so that our Ye Family's relationship with the Taiyi Sect will be even stronger!"

"Jingcheng, you're so thoughtful." Ye Jingteng nodded repeatedly and put away the spirit tea without any ceremony.

Taihao Master was also a tea lover, and second-tier spiritual tea was not particularly cheap for cultivators of the Purple Mansion.

"Jingcheng, here's the spirit medicine you requested!" He then took out a Storage Bag.

Storage Bag were some materials for the third-tier Golden Scale Pill.

After the Golden-Scaled Beast Breathing Technique was completed, along with the Essence Blood of the Earth-Scale Lion, Ye Jingcheng also raised it to the same priority as the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon.

"Thank you, brother!" Ye Jingcheng saw several eight-hundred-year-old spirit medicine inside.

Besides the thousand-year-old, third-tier Earth Cloud Ganoderma and third-tier Gold Root Fruit, the spirit medicine for the Golden Scale Pill have also been basically collected.

Then a look of delight appeared on his face, and he calmly handed over a Storage Bag.

"It's strange, but in the past, sect deacons would give me pointers, but these past few times, I've received extra gifts!" Ye Jingteng said with some doubt as he put away his Storage Bag.

"Perhaps they saw that Big Brother's aura was close to the Foundation Establishment Late Stage. With Big Brother's talent, he should be among the top in the Taiyi Sect." Ye Jingcheng said without hesitation.

"It's really close. I feel like all the pent-up frustration from before has been swept away. Reaching the Foundation Establishment Late Stage is just a matter of time!" Ye Jingteng nodded, extremely pleased with Ye Jingcheng's words.

"Jingcheng, do you have any promising talents in your Lineage recently? Bring them to the sect. With my help, they should have no problem Foundation Establishment," Ye Jingteng said again, a sly glint in his eyes.

"Of course, even if you hadn't mentioned it, I was already planning to make arrangements!" Ye Jingcheng said repeatedly.

Within the Lineage, he had already discovered several young members who lacked a strong Yu Family cohesion.

These clansmen used to be very close to Ye Jinghe.

After Ye Jinghe got into trouble, he became despondent and worried that his Lineage would come after them.

Ye Jingcheng was just in time to send these people into the sect.

This serves both as a warning to the rest of the Lineage and as a way to ensure that these few clan members are put to good use.

After chatting with Ye Jingteng for a while longer, they finally gave up.

"Brother, Jingli's weapon-refining skills have improved slightly recently. If possible, I hope you can replace some of these Spirit Materials." Ye Jingcheng took out a new Jade Slip, which contained the Spirit Materials for Law Treasure.

But Ye Jingteng didn't even look at it, and simply nodded in agreement.

"Don't worry, Jingcheng, your business is my business!"

"Then I'll have to trouble you, brother!" Ye Jingcheng raised his teacup and drank with Ye Jingteng, and the atmosphere became harmonious.

Ye Jingteng spent an unusual day at Soaring Cloud Peak, and even told the Inner Hall members of the Ye Family about the events in the Taichang Mountain Range.

Ye Jingteng originally wanted to give a lesson to the young talents of the Ye Family, but Ye Jingcheng naturally wouldn't allow Ye Jingteng to explain to the Qing generation of the Lineage.

Ye Jingcheng hesitated for a long time before agreeing to explain it to the Inner Hall clan members, but Ye Jingteng was very satisfied.

At least in his view, this was a good start.

Replacing them with the old Clan Elders would be absolutely unacceptable.

In Ye Jingteng's eyes, the gap between the Ye Family and the Taiyi Sect was too great. Rather than being arrogant and developing on his own, he should take over and replace them.

This requires a large number of the Ye Family members to enter the Taiyi Sect and unite as one within the Taiyi Sect.

This could affect a peak, or even a clan.

Ye Jingcheng couldn't judge whether Ye Jingteng's ambitions were good or bad, nor did he dare to agree with the other party's methods.

But at least Ye Jingteng still has the Ye Family's heart, and can create value for the Ye Family.

In his opinion, this was still acceptable.

After Ye Jingteng left, life returned to normal. The Yuan Family became much more subdued after this incident, while the Wei Family flourished. Due to the insect plague, more people realized the importance of Array, leading to the sale of a considerable number of the Wei Family array plates.

However, there are fewer Rogue Cultivators in Taihang Marketplace as a whole.

Naturally, the Ye Family's profits in Taihang Marketplace also decreased significantly.

It was as if, because of the return of Purple Extremity True Lord, all the spies and cultivators who had infiltrated the mountain had left.

Meanwhile, the profits of Taichang Market increased again.

Two more months passed, and sunlight streamed through the window, falling on Ye Jingcheng's bedside.

Ye Jingcheng awoke from his cultivation and felt his True Essence within his body had grown considerably stronger; his smile deepened.

Although the True Essence did not increase much.

But compared to when it first broke through, it has become much more refined.

Just as he was about to release the Crimson Flame Fox to refine pills, he saw the Array of Soaring Cloud Peak change, and the Spiritual Qi on the entire mountain began to gather to one side.

Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng was finally overjoyed.

This posture clearly indicates that Ye Jingyun is about to break through.

The latter held back for the last six months to hone his Spiritual Qi to the point of being sufficient.

This increases the likelihood of a breakthrough.

The reason Ye Jingcheng hasn't gone to the Azure Cloud Sea Region yet is that he's waiting for Ye Jingyun to break through.

Ye Jingyun also has considerable talent in Lineage management. Ye Jingcheng doesn't need him to be exceptionally good, as long as he ensures that the situation in the Ye Family doesn't deteriorate.

Ye Xingqun needed to remain hidden offstage because he had broken through to the Foundation Establishment. Ye Jingli and Ye Jingyong were not a good match in terms of personality, so only Ye Jingyun was quite suitable.

Ye Jingcheng walked out of the courtyard and soon arrived at Ye Jingyun's courtyard.

After Ye Jingyun's alchemy skills reached the highest level of the first rank, he also moved his courtyard to a place not far from his own.

When he arrived, the rest of his clansmen were also there.

Ye Jingyu was also among them.

"Seventh Sister!" Ye Jingcheng looked at Ye Jingyu and couldn't help but speak.

The Ye Jingyu at this moment was completely different from the Ye Jingyu in the market.

The pure light in her eyes was gone. The Seventh Sister who stood on the Spirit Boat and asked Ye Jingcheng why not give it a try, why not fight for it, was no longer there.

Even in Taichang Market, the confident demeanor she displayed when she used her silver tongue to guide cultivators to buy Ye Family Elixirs was gone.

Her cultivation level has not improved compared to five years ago.

He's still at the eighth level of Qi Refining.

Perhaps the age of sixty weighed her down, or perhaps she became despondent after realizing there was no hope.

She has now returned from Taichang Market and rejoined the Ye Family's Spirit Plant Hall, cultivating spirit medicine in the Spirit Herb Garden on Soaring Cloud Peak.

"Patriarch," Ye Jingyu replied, then glanced at the courtyard, then at the damp soil beneath his feet, pursed his lips with a hint of self-deprecation, and ultimately said nothing more.

Ye Jingyun ranked ninth, and she ranked seventh.

She witnessed the former break through firsthand.

This is the Cultivation World.

"Seventh Sister, why not give it a try? No one in the Cultivation World says that you can't break through after sixty!" Ye Jingcheng said.

Ye Jingyu hummed in response, seemingly not having heard a word.

"Uncle Xinghan has already broken through; you can ask him for Xinghan!" Ye Jingcheng said.

Upon hearing this, Ye Jingyu was initially taken aback, but then he stared at Ye Jingcheng with wide eyes.

Since Ye Xinghan was almost eighty years old and still broke through, she naturally understood what this meant.

"The Great Way never favors the despondent!" Ye Jingcheng spoke again.

As soon as these words were spoken, a ripple of Spiritual Qi energy spread outwards from within.

It passed through the courtyard, the Array, and the crowd, heading towards the distant wilderness and sky!

That was clearly the aura of Foundation Establishment.

What entered Ye Jingyu's mind was not the aura of Foundation Establishment, but Ye Jingcheng's words. "The Great Dao never favors the decadent!"

Yes, Ye Jingyun doesn't have a particularly good Spirit Root either; he also has four Spirit Roots, but he has never slacked off in his efforts.
