Probing the Spirit; Obtaining the Cold-Bearing Grass

Jadewood Bay is located on the edge of the Skycloud Archipelago, where there are many scattered islands. When viewed from the sky, they look like scattered stars embedded in the boundless sea.

Jadecold Island is definitely the highest island in Jadewood Bay.

These mountains are soaring into the clouds; it's just that the island is a bit small, otherwise it would be the best place for major sects to settle.

At this moment, the Silver Moon shines brightly, its light spilling onto the waves and creating a low rumble.

Just then, a spirit shuttle, hidden in the waves, revealed its bow.

However, when they were only ten miles from the edge of Jadecold Island, they saw layers of spiritual light being activated.

"As expected, they changed the Array and its foundation!" Ye Haisheng said coldly.

This time, the commander was not Ye Jingcheng, but Ye Haisheng.

On the surface, Ye Haisheng is the eighth elder of the Purplewood Sect, and he is also extremely talented.

Ye Jingcheng had only recently joined the company, so naturally he couldn't possibly have command authority.

No one was surprised that it was discovered so early; it would have been surprising if it hadn't been discovered at all.

It's either a ruse involving an empty city, or there's something else going on.

This made the Purplewood Sect feel a little more at ease.

"Prepare to break the formation!" Ye Haisheng shouted.

The other Purplewood Sect cultivators also immediately revealed a glint in their eyes.

In the Eastern Sea, everyone is thinking about making contributions, getting better Cultivation Method, and acquiring better resources.

They'd love for more of this kind of chaotic fighting, since it's better than going to the Outer Sea to reclaim land alone.

At least our side has more cultivators and greater strength, so when it comes to looting, it won't be like some Demon Beast where the materials are worthless.

On Jadecold Island, a crescent moon hung in the void, dazzlingly bright.

That spiritual barrier also appeared to be extremely thick.

Furthermore, a number of cultivators suddenly appeared on the island, all of them fully armed and carrying Law Artifact and Spirit Talisman.

There were also some cultivators who carried cloaks or flying wing- Law Artifact their backs.

These cultivators were all Body Cultivator, always ready to rush into the midst of the cultivators and inflict devastating damage.

Seeing this, the cultivators of the Purplewood Sect were still somewhat frightened. Although there were Array masters, no one could see the weakness in the Array.

In addition, the opponent has a large protective formation for the island.

Even if the Purplewood Sect has more cultivators than the enemy, they may not be able to conquer this island in a short time.

"It's alright!" Ye Haisheng piloted the spirit shuttle into the air, landing in the void. With his back to the Silver Moon, he leaped out.

Then, some silver pollen appeared in his hand. This pollen, carried by the moonlight, fell in a vast and mighty stream, spreading across the entire formation.

As soon as these pollen grains appeared, they seemed to possess sentience, spreading throughout the entire spiritual barrier.

"Stop him!" A voice also came from inside Jadecold Island.

Two Foundation Establishment cultivators took out the Rending Wind Banner and began wildly fanning it in this direction.

The raging wind seemed to distort the waves and the void itself.

However, these silver pollen grains remained motionless, continuing to fall towards the Array.

This scene left everyone feeling incredulous.

As time passed, the areas where the pollen was most concentrated were instantly revealed.

"Hmph, even Brother Sea Crane couldn't break my Heavenly Crystal Silver Powder, how could your little mountain breeze possibly break it?" Ye Haisheng couldn't help but snort coldly, then his eyes narrowed.

"Everyone, cast the formation -Formation-Breaking Talisman and all kinds of Law Artifact!"

"This is the weak point in the Array!"

Ye Haisheng then took out a second-tier formation -Formation-Breaking Talisman, and at the same time, he took out three Soul-Breaking Awl.

The Formation-Breaking Talisman took the lead, followed by three Soul-Breaking Awl that pierced through the air simultaneously.

Boom!

The Formation-Breaking Talisman was the first to be struck by an equally icy Spirit Talisman, instantly transforming into a red and white spiritual light that spread outwards.

The three Soul-Breaking Awl landed on the Array, causing a ripple. Although they didn't break the formation, it was enough to prove that this was indeed a weak point in the Array.

"Everyone, control the Formation-Breaking Talisman! If any Formation-Breaking Talisman flies out, I will kill whoever is in its location first!" Guo Hanling was inside the Array, shouted the same words upon seeing this scene.

His gaze was fierce and cold, making people unconsciously avoid looking at him.

The guardian cultivators of Jadecold Island are not weak, with eight Foundation Establishment cultivators. On the Purplewood Sect's side, including Ye Jingcheng Ye Haisheng, and another member of the Star generation, there are about ten Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Such a difference in strength exists, but as long as the Array remains intact, the Jade Chu Sect's Jadecold Island will still hold the advantage.

For Guo Hanling, what he feared most was not this kind of direct attack, but rather that, like Jadeclear Island, his Array was somehow broken and then Array.

At this time, the other Purplewood Sect also began to wield their magical Law Artifact. However, no one used the Formation-Breaking Talisman- Formation-Breaking Talisman, as it was meant to be used unexpectedly.

At this moment, Ye Haisheng also glanced at Ye Jingcheng, as if to say that no one on Hidden Island lacks real skills.

However, Ye Jingcheng's gaze remained unchanged.

His Divine Sense covered all areas.

He was checking to see if anyone was secretly spying and recording, so he didn't care about Ye Haisheng's smug look at that moment.

He even felt that Ye Haisheng was now just like Ye Jinghu and the others.

Ye Jinghu is not even thirty yet.

Young people do indeed crave vanity, and he can understand that.

As the great battle began, the Array roared and countless spiritual lights clashed on the sea surface. Countless Body Cultivator also rushed out of the Array to assassinate the cultivators of the Purplewood Sect.

With their backs to the Array, they did indeed have a considerable advantage for a time.

This resulted in significant losses for the Qi Refining cultivators of the Purplewood Sect.

Even morale has dropped considerably.

Ye Jingcheng observed for a long time but did not see anyone secretly spying on him, nor did he discover any particularly powerful cultivators on the island.

Even though the Cultivation Method of the island-guarding cultivators had commonalities, they didn't see anything special.

This suggests that the Jade Chu Sect is very unlikely to be a force within an inland cultivation kingdom.

Based on Ye Jingyu's implication, the Mystic Sword Pavilion and the Vast Righteousness Chamber of Commerce are most likely the ones involved.

After pondering for a moment, Ye Jingcheng also made his move, clenching his fist.

Instantly, spiritual light gathered, and a huge golden Falling Cloud Star Rock appeared at the weak point of the Array.

This Falling Cloud Star Rock is also an inverted rock formation, with an extremely sharp bottom and a dazzling golden light.

Moreover, the Falling Cloud Star Rock struck at just the right moment, seizing the gap in everyone's attack and defense, landing on the spirit shield and instantly igniting terrifying flames.

The next moment, with a click.

The spirit array, which other Law Artifact could not break, was instantly shattered into countless fragments by this massive golden star rock, and the entire spirit shield was in imminent danger.

Finally, with a massive golden hammer-like magical Law Artifact crashing down, the Array shattered.

Everyone couldn't help but look at Ye Jingcheng, after all, the credit for breaking the formation clearly belonged to the Golden Light Falling Cloud Star Rock.

Even Ye Haisheng was no exception.

After all, he was certain that Ye Jingcheng was using only the Foundation Establishment Late Stage strength, and hadn't even used Law Artifact much.

This means that Ye Jingcheng's Law Technique skills have reached an extremely terrifying level.

This made his expression turn somewhat unpleasant.

Since no one used Spirit Beast, the difference was obvious.

"Everyone go up the mountain, kill the people from the Jade Chu Sect, whoever kills them gets to keep the Storage Bag, and keep 30% of the island's resources!" Ye Haisheng didn't hesitate for long and immediately gave the order.

Their reinforcements should arrive soon!

Ye Haisheng's two sentences prompted the cultivators of the Purplewood Sect to rush forward without the slightest hesitation.

Ye Jingcheng also removed all the Thunder Rhinoceros Beetle.

They slashed at the cultivators on the edge of the island.

He himself headed towards the Spirit Herb Garden on the snow-capped mountaintop.

He was a cultivator ordered to charge this time, so he naturally wouldn't hold back. Moreover, one of his goals was the Cold-Nurturing Grass in the Spirit Herb Garden.

At this moment, under his vast Divine Sense, he had already discovered that the Cold-Nurturing Grass was located in the Spirit Herb Garden on the mountaintop.

However, to his surprise, three Foundation Establishment Peak cultivators were hidden Spirit Herb Garden.

These cultivators probably predicted that someone from the Ye Family would steal the spirit medicine.

If it were truly an ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator, they might indeed be ambushed.

Ye Jingcheng was merely Foundation Establishment cultivator disguised as Purple Mansion cultivator.

Ye Jingcheng went up spirit medicine the mountaintop and immediately set up the Array that An Yuhuai had given him.

"Come out, you three. I want to know if you are from the inland?" Ye Jingcheng said, his expression remaining unchanged.

However, there was no response; the three were clearly extremely confident in their ability to remain hidden.

Ye Jingcheng raised his hand and instantly conjured a Fireball Technique.

The terrifying heat distorted the air itself.

As the fireball landed, the three men could no longer hide and leaped out from the side.

The fireball created a terrifying crater, causing the three men to curse loudly:

"This is Spirit Herb Garden!"

"I'm not interested in the Spirit Herb Garden. What I'm interested in is who you are. I might be afraid of the forces behind you!" Ye Jingcheng spoke again.

His gaze also fell on the faces and clothing of the three people.

The three of them had dark complexions, clearly showing the effect of being directly exposed to sunlight. Their manner of speaking, clothing, habit of wearing storage bracelets, and the hooks on the Storage Bag at their waists showed no trace of what one would expect from an inland cultivation country.

"Of course, how many people who live on the Outer Sea aren't inland cultivators? I guess the Purplewood Sect is one too. However, I guess your Purplewood Sect isn't a regular army!" One of the three, a thin-faced cultivator, couldn't help but speak up.

A sinister grin spread across his face.

"What we, the Purplewood Sect, are is not important. What's important is you. After all, you are the ones who are surrounded. So, if you don't confess honestly, it seems you don't intend to seize this chance to live!" Ye Jingcheng shook his head.

"Such arrogance..."

The two people beside him were exuding great power, but at that moment, they only felt as if they saw the eyes of a golden dragon.

In an instant, the thin-faced cultivator in the middle and the cultivator on the left struggled free, but the cultivator on the right became trapped inside.

It was Ye Jingcheng's patriarchal token, the Golden Dragon Token.

The Golden Dragon Token has a soul-capturing effect, and it's not just effective against Lineage cultivators.

As long as one's cultivation level is high, one can also capture the soul of someone with a lower cultivation level.

"Have you left the Azure Cloud Sea Region and the Heavenly Horse Sea Region?"

"No..."

The cultivator, whose soul had been captivated, tried to continue speaking, but someone beside him took out a red drum and instantly shattered it.

The remaining person, wielding a flying sword, slashed towards Ye Jingcheng's brow.

The sword light, though cold and sinister, was still chilling.

But as he landed in the middle, a giant golden shield appeared in front of Ye Jingcheng.

The sword light was deflected, but the golden shield remained completely still.

"You are from the Purple Mansion?" The man asked, both surprised and terrified!

"Even if it's been soul-captured, it might not be real!" the remaining person added.

"I already know whether it's true or not!" Ye Jingcheng activated his Wood Vine Technique, and the dazzling Adamantine Vine bound the three of them.

The four Thunder Rhinoceros Beetle that had not yet appeared instantly unleashed their enormous thunder rhinoceros horns.

Four layers of lightning covered the three of them.

The three people's protective barriers shattered instantly, and they were blasted into a terrible state.

Ye Jingcheng's three Earth Spike Technique instantly killed the three of them.

Ye Jingcheng put away their storage bracelets, then put away all the Law Artifact, and also put away the spirit medicine in the nearby Spirit Herb Garden.

This includes the thousand-year-old Cold-Nurturing Grass.

The Cold-Nurturing Grass grows amidst ice and snow, its leaves as white as jade, making it extremely beautiful.

Moreover, the Cold-Nurturing Grass only has two leaves, but the veins on the leaves are thousands of.

This is also the best way to determine the age of the Cold-Nurturing Grass *.

Ye Jingcheng roughly counted the Spirit Patterns; there were approximately 1,100, which was more than enough to refine a third-tier Jade-Scale Pill.

Ye Jingcheng also put away the other spirit medicine. This was a cold-attribute herb garden, and the most precious one was of course this Cold-Nurturing Grass, but the other spirit medicine were also extremely rare.

After all, being able to establish a medicinal herb garden in the Azure Cloud Sea Region means having a certain level of confidence in one's own strength and not worrying about not being able to buy time for transplantation during Beast Tide.

After spending more than ten breaths collecting the spirit medicine, Ye Jingcheng glanced at the cold-attribute soil.

He didn't intend to put this soil into his Grotto-Heaven, since the Spirit Soil Grotto-Heaven was of a much higher grade.

However, since he plans to develop the Hidden Island in the future and will need to cultivate some spirit medicine, this soil will come in handy. It's neither bad nor too precious, and if something unexpected happens in the future, it won't be a pity to lose it.

After doing all this, Ye Jingcheng put away the Array.

Also put away was a Spirit-Inquiring Talisman.

While setting up the Array, Ye Jingcheng also set up Spirit-Inquiring Talisman, knowing whether the three were lying.

Therefore, the idea that the three people might be lying seemed utterly ridiculous to Ye Jingcheng.

According to his inquiry, the Jade Chu Sect had no powerful backing.

Of course, it was actually quite predictable.

After all, the Jade Chu Sect and the Purplewood Sect have been at odds for so long, yet the Jade Chu Sect has never considered destroying the Purplewood Sect, clearly indicating a lack of confidence.

Since they lack confidence, this is the Ye Family's opportunity.

Ye Jingcheng took out the family head's token, sent the message, and then looked at the other parts of Jadecold Island again.

The battles elsewhere were also nearing their end. Without Array, the cultivators of the Jade Chu Sect were naturally no match for the Purplewood Sect.

What's even more ridiculous is that the other side wanted to set up an ambush and win by surprise!

Ye Jingcheng killed three of his strongest fighters.

However, the cultivators of the Purplewood Sect also suffered considerable losses.

Even in such chaotic battles, some cultivators will conceal their true abilities, even if they are the victors.

Their sudden outbursts can unleash power far beyond imagination, especially those who Body Cultivator; their outbursts are extremely terrifying.

As for Ye Jingcheng Ye Haisheng, and others, their orders also included orders to prevent casualties.

Before the Ye Family fully unfolds its schemes, it would be better for the Purplewood Sect and the Ye Family to have some obviously malicious cultivators die.

"Mission accomplished, now we're just waiting for Fourth Brother!" Ye Jingcheng and Ye Haisheng exchanged a telepathic message.

After probing the Jade Chu Sect, their next step is to probe the Mystic Sword Pavilion and the Vast Righteousness Chamber of Commerce.

The Skycloud Archipelago are not large, and as a Golden Core Lineage, the Ye Family naturally cannot be confined to the Purplewood Sect.

The tests conducted by Jadeclear Island and Jadecold Island have practically sealed the fate of the Jade Chu Sect.
