Elders Gather, the Might of the Heavenly River Pearl

The crimson light fell on the sea, illuminating it in a deep red glow.

Two Spirit Boats, coming from different places, met here. The spirit shuttle stopped a few feet away, but the two waves from different directions collided.

Several figures then landed on the sea surface.

"Grandpa!" Ye Jingcheng smiled as he watched the figure walk out.

Ever since the Yellow Ginseng Fruit ripened, the three of them had been rushing here without stopping, having already put away the Black-Armored Scorpions, but unexpectedly, they had run into each other here.

Of course, Ye Haicheng did not come alone. Beside him were Turtle Ancestor, Ye Xueliang and Ye Haiyu, and two other people of the Hai generation who had Foundation Establishment.

Upon seeing this, Ye Jingcheng couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation.

This gathering of the Ye Family members can be considered to have brought together most of the Ye Family's high-ranking cultivators.

Of course, it's not that Ye Jingli and Ye Xingyi weren't qualified, but rather that they had to remain in the public eye.

Just like Ye Jingyu can't come, Ye Haifei Ye Xingyu probably can't come either.

"Not bad, Jingcheng's aura has grown stronger again!" Ye Haicheng was also all smiles.

Of course, at this moment, only he could say such a thing, since all the elders here had lower cultivation levels than Ye Jingcheng.

At this moment, Ye Xuefu and Ye Xingliu still had strange expressions on their faces.

Although Ye Haicheng broke through earlier than Ye Jingcheng, at this moment, neither of them was really sure who was stronger.

Even in a confrontation, they felt that Ye Jingcheng had a greater chance of winning.

That's why his expression looked rather strange.

"I've learned something new Outer Sea, Grandfather, you flatter me." Ye Jingcheng cupped his hands in greeting.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, everyone headed out to sea.

Once they arrived here, they frequently encountered Demon Beast.

However, the cultivation level of the Demon Beasts is not high; most are at the first or second tier, and the third tier is very rare.

After traveling some more distance, the sea surface shimmered, and apart from swimming fish, there were no other Demon Beast.

"We're almost there. This Hidden Azure Island used to belong to a powerful demon called the Sea-Shaking Turtle. This Sea-Shaking Turtle couldn't stand the presence of other Demon Beasts. It was timid yet ferocious!" Ye Haicheng explained, noticing the strange looks on everyone's faces.

The Demon Beast of the sea are actually quite similar to Demon Beast of the mainland; some prefer to live in groups, while others prefer to live alone.

These Sea-Shaking Turtles prefer to live alone.

The territory where such a powerful demon resides is naturally the most suitable place for a breakthrough.

As they spoke, a large patch of spiritual mist appeared in the distance.

Even under the blazing sun, this spiritual mist never dissipated; instead, it remained shrouded in a misty haze, utterly mysterious.

Upon reaching the spirit mist, Ye Haicheng rolled up half of his sleeve, revealing the Beast-Link Mark.

The Mist Sea quickly dissipated, revealing a passage, at the end of which lay a massive island.

Several figures remained on the island.

Ye Jingcheng had seen many of the Ye Family's ancestors and Clan Elders in the Lineage's ancestral records. At this moment, he could barely recognize that the one at the very front, dressed in a clean white robe with white beard hanging high at his temples, looking like an immortal descended from heaven, was Ye Xuefan, the fourth member of the Ye Family's Xue generation.

He was also an Array master at the mid-stage of the Purple Mansion realm.

"Fourth Grand Uncle!"

"Fourth Uncle!"

"Fourth Uncle!"

With different shouts, Ye Jingcheng Ye Xingliu, and the others bowed and landed in front of the island.

Ye Xuefan exuded a scholarly air, and his eyes were bright and piercing.

"Everyone's here, come in!" Ye Xuefan said calmly.

As everyone entered, they saw that a celestial glow had appeared above the entire island.

This spiritual glow is the result of the gathering of Spiritual Qi, somewhat similar to Ye Jingcheng's Stone Spirit Grotto-Heaven.

But what he Grotto-Heaven was only a small corner of his grotto.

This could cover almost half the island.

This demonstrates the immense scale of the process of breaking through to the Golden Core stage.

Many others, including Ye Jingcheng, showed the same surprise; clearly, Ye Jingcheng wasn't the only one who had come here for the first time.

After Ye Haicheng and the others entered, they did not wander around, but instead sat down to meditate on the spot.

Ye Jingcheng naturally didn't want to stand out, so he also sat down to meditate.

After waiting for about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, there was movement again from outside the Mist Sea.

A Spirit Boat also entered, which was yet another Hidden Island belonging to the Ye Family.

At this time, there were already fifteen Foundation Establishment on the island, significantly more than during the last cleanup of Moonwatch Lake.

And Ye Xuefan hadn't even spoken yet.

This means that some people haven't arrived yet.

At the same time, he also knew that there were still many Foundation Establishment who couldn't come.

Sure enough, three hours later, another spirit shuttle appeared in the distance.

This spirit shuttle is not a second-tier spirit shuttle, but a third-tier spirit shuttle. Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng also realized that the Ye Family must have produced a new Purple Mansion in recent years.

"Fourth Uncle!" Another deep voice rang out, the mist dissipated, and a broad-faced cultivator stepped onto the island.

"Big Brother!" The man first greeted Ye Xuefan, then looked at Ye Haicheng.

Ye Jingcheng finally realized who the person in front of him was.

Ye Haihe, the person in charge of Crane Hidden, is also the master of the Plum Feather Crane Beast Communion.

The twenty-third member of the Hai generation has now reached the Purple Mansion.

This also means that the Ye Family now actually has as many as six Purple Mansions.

However, this twenty-third uncle's thick eyebrows and large eyes were somewhat different from what Ye Jingcheng had imagined.

After Ye Haihe, there are four more members of the Ye Family: two from the Hai generation and two from the Xing generation.

Two of the Hai generation members are in the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, while Ye Xingyi and Ye Xinghui of the Xing generation are in the Foundation Establishment Early Stage.

The number of clansmen present had exceeded twenty.

"Sea Crane, you've been doing well lately!" Ye Haicheng said when Ye Haihe greeted him.

"Brother, don't laugh at me. It was only because my fourth uncle gave me the Star-Eyed Iron Ape that I was able to reach this Beast Communion. Otherwise, how could I have achieved what I have today?" Ye Haihe said modestly.

Then, looking at Ye Jingcheng, his eyes lit up.

"Look, Jing Zi's generation is already so powerful, and we are all old!" Ye Haihe's few words made the others sigh with emotion, and Ye Jingcheng felt a little embarrassed.

These are all Clan Elders; being treated like this really makes me feel a little uncomfortable.

But Ye Xuefan spoke up at this moment.

"Alright, stop fooling around. The reason I called you here today is because it concerns the fate of our Ye Family for over a thousand years. Second Brother's breakthrough must not be allowed to fail!"

"Around Hidden Azure Island, there are four optimal spirit islands, requiring eight people to set up formations and place the Demon-Luring Grass!"

"During the breakthrough and tribulation, delay some of the great demons and prevent them from all coming to Hidden Azure Island!" Ye Xuefan solemnly declared.

Upon hearing this, the others also became cautious.

This time, luring the demon naturally carries risks.

But it was something the Ye Family had to do.

If the Ye Family were to break through in the Skycloud Archipelago, the information would naturally be impossible to conceal.

If they break through in the Outer Sea, they will face Beast Tide.

This is something the Ye Family must go through.

Upon hearing this, Ye Jingcheng also thought of the Demon-Luring Grass from back then. During the insect plague, the Yuan Family used the Demon-Luring Grass to lure the Earth Dragon Demon King.

Ye Jingcheng didn't know if the Demon-Luring Grass would appear. It was two thousand years old and already had four leaves, which was enough to attract the Demon King.

"Hai Cheng and Jingcheng, how about you two take charge of the outermost Seaheart Island?"

Ye Xuefan spoke.

"No problem!" Ye Haicheng answered first. Ye Jingcheng hesitated for a moment, but quickly nodded as well.

It wasn't that Ye Jingcheng was hesitant or afraid; rather, it was because he was used to thinking things through carefully before acting.

Ye Xuefan didn't mind Ye Jingcheng's slowness and continued to look at the others.

In the end, eight people with almost the highest combat strength were selected.

Ye Xuefu and Ye Xingliu were also among them.

They are in charge of the inner sea area, where fewer powerful demons will be deployed.

The other two sides were handled by Ye Haihe Ye Haiyan and Ye Haiyu, respectively.

"Of course, when the Array is activated and the Demon-Luring Grass blocks are captured, you must return to Hidden Azure Island immediately. At the same time, remember to protect yourself and don't try to stop a chariot with your bare hands!" Ye Xuefan said.

He then took out a Spirit Diagram and gave it to the group.

When Ye Xuefan looked at Ye Jingcheng and Ye Haicheng, he transmitted his voice to Ye Jingcheng:

"Jingcheng, your strength should already place you among the top three in our Ye Family, so we can only entrust the matter of my second brother to you this time!"

"After this battle is over, I will personally host a grand banquet for you, a grand feast at the Purple Mansion!" Ye Xuefan transmitted his voice with a resounding tone.

Upon hearing this, Ye Jingcheng was completely certain that he and Ye Haicheng should transplant the four-leaf Demon-Luring Grass.

The Outer Sea area probably has a similar layout to the Taihang Mountain Range.

There must be a sea overlord, Demon King, in this sea area.

"Please rest assured, Fourth Ancestor!" Ye Jingcheng nodded, of course.

All members of the Ye Family should feel duty-bound to help with this matter.

Ye Xuefan said that we should try not to try to stop a moving train in the first place, but if the situation is urgent, someone will still need to step in to stop it.

Ye Xuefan heard Ye Jingcheng's reply.

Once the task was assigned, everyone began their preparations.

Ye Haicheng looked at Ye Jingcheng:

"There's no need to be too nervous. This is good for us. Our fourth great-uncle has crafted four sets of array plates, all capable of withstanding a peak third-tier demon. Our job is to ensure that the Demon King is attracted by the Demon-Luring Grass and doesn't fall into the hands of those demons beforehand. At the same time, as soon as the Demon King appears, we'll start our escape!"

Ye Haicheng didn't beat around the bush; he directly and bluntly explained what they might encounter this time.

"Grandpa, I know!" Ye Jingcheng shook his head, indicating that he didn't care.

Seeing this, Ye Haicheng smiled and then took out a bead.

The bead was crystal clear, with sky-blue water droplets floating on it, and countless dazzling Spirit Patterns, making it look absolutely beautiful.

Ye Jingcheng accepted the sky-blue bead, his eyes filled with joy.

This bead is a third-tier Law Treasure that Ye Jingcheng commissioned Ye Haicheng to refine.

"The effect is very good, reaching the level of a mid-grade third-tier magic Law Treasure!" Ye Haicheng said with a smile.

Ye Jingcheng took the bead and examined it carefully.

Of the ten drops of Profound Origin Heavy Water originally prepared inside the bead, only three drops remain, quietly circulating within. The entire bead now possesses a crystalline, willow-like luster.

It's beautiful, but the bead is quite heavy; Ye Jingcheng has to use his spiritual techniques to lift it.

The fact that he immediately received a mid-grade third-tier natal magic Law Treasure greatly increased Ye Jingcheng's confidence.

According to Ye Haicheng, even without facing the Demon King, they already possess a powerful Array, and now with an additional natal magic Law Treasure, their chances of victory are quite high.

"There's no rush to go to the sea right now. This Heavenly River Pearl Law Treasure an incredibly wondrous treasure!" Ye Haicheng added.

His eyes were also full of pride.

His half-closed eyes seemed to suggest that he had won the argument with the Vast Azure Turtle.

What's the use of this kid being so powerful? He's the one who refines the Law Treasure.

"Okay." Ye Jingcheng was also somewhat expectant.

The four Secret Method of the Four-Aspect Heavenly Origin Scripture are already extremely miraculous. Now that Law Treasure first of the four natal magic Law Treasures has appeared, he naturally wants to test it carefully. The Hidden Azure Island is shrouded in layers of mist, which is also very suitable for testing treasures.

Ye Jingcheng immediately sat down and began refining the Law Treasure.

At this moment, many other clansmen also looked at Ye Jingcheng. They all knew about the Ye Family's Four-Aspect Heavenly Origin Scripture, but none of them had practiced it.

Even if Lineage has many members with three or four Spirit Roots, they all choose Cultivation Method a single attribute or two attributes.

Those who possess three-attribute Cultivation Method are extremely confident in their own talents.

The Four-Aspect Heavenly Origin Scripture requires the balance of the four phases, unless they also possess Ye Jingcheng's alchemy skills, as well as Ye Jingcheng's Seven-inch Beast-Link Mark and four equally gifted Spirit Beasts.

Otherwise, the Four-Aspect Heavenly Origin Scripture would have made it difficult for them to make any progress even in the Foundation Establishment Early Stage.

After Ye Jingcheng sat down cross-legged, his face lit up with joy once again. The refining of this natal Law Treasure was much easier than he had imagined.

That feeling is that it complements the Cultivation Method perfectly, something that the Azure Swan Sword Spirit-Releasing Net cannot compare to at all.

After refining the Heavenly River Pearl, Ye Jingcheng stood up.

Finally, he looked at Ye Haicheng.

"Grandpa, I've finished refining it! This natal magic Law Treasure is truly miraculous!" Ye Jingcheng looked inward and saw that the water-elemental spirit within the Four Elements Heavenly Palace was freely entering and exiting the Heavenly River Pearl.

Still inside the Heavenly River Pearl, it roared repeatedly.

At this moment, he had a thorough understanding of the effects of the Heavenly River Pearl, and he was eager to try out the wonders of this Law Treasure.

"Then let's give it a try!" Ye Haicheng's eyes gleamed with fighting spirit.

As Body Cultivator, I have never been afraid of a battle.

Moreover, Ye Haicheng is definitely the best person to test the treasure.

He can Spirit Control Vast Azure Turtle, forming a real tortoise shell.

This tortoise shell should also be a power bestowed upon Ye Haicheng by Beast Communion.

"I'll increase the size of the Array!" Ye Xuefan said from the side.

He controlled the array flags, allowing the Mist Sea to continue stretching into the distance.

This naturally consumes more Spiritual Qi, but it won't have much of an impact in the short term.

Ye Haicheng and Ye Jingcheng both went to sea.

"Grandpa, please!" Ye Jingcheng said respectfully.

Ye Haicheng didn't mince words. He knew his own magic Law Treasure well, and he also knew that Ye Jingcheng was somewhat resentful because Ye Haicheng hadn't discussed the Four-Leaf Demon-Luring Grass with Ye Jingcheng beforehand.

Therefore, they were to withstand the blow from Ye Jingcheng's Law Treasure.

He circulated his True Essence, and this time, he almost completely transformed into a tortoise shell, becoming a half-tortoise human. Brilliant tortoise Spirit Patterns flowed around him, and his pair of iron fists became even larger.

Ye Jingcheng then controlled the Heavenly River Pearl and threw it into the sky.

A celestial river fell from the sky, transforming into several water dragons that rushed towards Ye Haicheng.

"Well done!" Ye Haicheng was filled with heroic spirit at this moment, and threw a punch with the force of a mountain.

A deafening roar erupted, and the water jets dispersed, splashing into the sea.

Following the water dragon is the enormous Heavenly River Pearl.

It hurtled down like a mountain ball, carrying terrifying force.

It also struck Ye Haicheng's iron fist. In an instant, the tortoise shell Spirit Patterns dissipated, and the Heavenly River Pearl also crumbled, as if it had shattered into countless pieces.

This scene puzzled the rest of the Ye Family members, as the Heavenly River Pearl Law Treasure was far too weak.

But soon, they found out why.

With a thought, Ye Jingcheng caused the countless fragments to begin to converge.

It transformed into countless water blades, continuing to converge on Ye Haicheng with incredible speed.

This is the effect of Crystal Willow Liquid —the effect of convergence!

The next moment, Ye Haicheng once again frantically condensed the tortoise shell.

At the same time, countless fragments pierced through the tortoise shell and formed a Heavenly River Pearl in front of Ye Haicheng.

The tortoise shell shattered into several pieces, turning into spiritual light and disappearing into the void.

A second slash!

And this is the true power of the Heavenly River Pearl!

Ye Haicheng's tortoise shell also shattered twice in a long-awaited battle.

Everyone was astonished to see Ye Haicheng bleeding; they knew that Ye Jingcheng had held back.

Ye Jingcheng knew very well that he had held back quite a bit, considering that he hadn't even used his Spirit Essence yet!

Of course, he wouldn't be so arrogant as to think that his strength had really reached the mid-stage of the Purple Mansion, since Ye Haicheng hadn't even used his own natal magic Law Treasure.
