Second Ancestor's Worries, the Settling of a Dao Title
The Golden Light Rhinoceros Demon's cave abode was not close to the Sea-Overturning Demon King's lair, and this area of the sea actually overlapped somewhat with the route they had taken.
Golden Light Rhinoceros and reluctantly, the two finally arrived at a Lakeheart Island.
The island is not small; in fact, it is even larger than the Ye Family's Purplewood Island.
"Master, this is the cave abode," the Golden Light Rhinoceros Demon said, placing the two figures onto the island.
It remained in the waves, seemingly more lucid that way.
Seeing that no other powerful demons were invading the island, it was quite satisfied, indicating that its ferocity was still considerable.
But seeing the two people in front of it, it sighed.
"Second Grand Uncle, please accept this stone bead Law Treasure. I don't need it right now!" Ye Jingcheng took out the stone bead Law Treasure, although it looked like a gray stone and was extremely ordinary.
But it feels like jade to the touch, warm and smooth.
Ye Jingcheng had just tried inputting some True Essence, but it all disappeared without a trace and he couldn't activate it at all.
Speaking of which, he also had a third-grade high-level magic Law Treasure, the Ice Phoenix Pearl, which he had taken from Xu Qinghan, but he hadn't used it yet.
That Law Treasure even contains a beast spirit.
Ye Xuecang did not accept it immediately, but looked into Ye Jingcheng's clear eyes before nodding and accepting it.
"I can only say that I will keep this treasure for you for a while, and I will give it to you after you break through to the Golden Core stage!" Clearly, even Ye Xuecang could not be easily moved by the stone bead Law Treasure.
"This is the treasure you've been looking for. I searched the Yun Family's treasury for you!" After saying that, Ye Xuecang tossed over another storage bracelet.
Ye Jingcheng was overjoyed to see this.
He knew that the treasures inside were probably what he needed most, after all, the entire treasure trove of a Golden Core Lineage had fallen into Ye Xuecang's hands.
After all, it was Ye Xuecang, and Ye Xuecang also controlled the Lineage.
"Thank you, Second Grand Uncle!" Ye Jingcheng did not check it immediately, but put the storage bracelet into his pocket.
Ye Xuecang glanced at Ye Jingcheng, wanting to say something, but in the end remained silent.
He simply smiled with slight satisfaction and waved in acknowledgment.
Send Ye Jingcheng to the lake on the island to search for treasure.
The Golden Light Rhinoceros Demon's gaze remained fixed on Ye Jingcheng, watching him until he reached the center of the island and disappeared from sight.
He then plunged his head into the seawater again.
It snorted a few times, and immediately countless bubbles surged up.
Ye Xuecang also turned around, looking at the endless sea, but stood there for a long time, seemingly lost in thought.
In the center of the lake, Ye Jingcheng landed.
The lake here is naturally a seawater lake, but for Ye Jingcheng, this island is a very suitable sea area to be Hidden Island. Spirit fish can be raised in the lake, and even Moon Spirit Clam can be raised.
At this moment, there are still many spirit fish in the lake, but they are all relatively gentle herbivorous spirit fish, which are clearly food left behind by the Golden Light Rhinoceros Demon.
Beside the lake was a patch of pale golden soil, which made Ye Jingcheng's eyes light up with delight.
This soil is called Golden Grit Spirit Soil, which has miraculous effects on Metal Attribute spirit medicine. At this moment, a patch of Golden Rhinoceros Grass is growing there, shimmering with golden light.
This Golden Rhinoceros Grass is entirely golden, and its leaves are exceptionally large.
In the normal Cultivation World, the smaller the spiritual herbs, the more precious they are. However, the Golden Rhinoceros Grass is an exception; the larger it is, the better.
Golden Rhinoceros Grass is also a valuable spirit medicine in many Metal Attribute elixirs.
Ye Jingcheng's third-tier Golden Falcon Pill can all use this Golden Rhinoceros Grass.
In the vast expanse before us, there are four Golden Rhinoceros Grass that are over a thousand years old, and about thirty that are over five hundred years old.
Among them is the largest Golden Rhinoceros Grass, which, judging from its texture and size, may be close to two thousand years old and is of great value.
A single ordinary century-old Golden Rhinoceros Grass is worth several hundred Spirit Stone. If all one hundred or so Golden Rhinoceros Grass in front of us were exchanged for Spirit Stone, we could get at least tens of thousands of Spirit Stones.
No wonder the Golden Light Rhinoceros Demon was so reluctant; the spirit medicine here are perfect for Golden Light Rhinoceros.
It Ye Jingcheng that it hadn't been stolen, probably because the Golden Light Rhinoceros had a notorious reputation for being ferocious and had swallowed up many of the nearby Demon Beast.
He carefully transplanted the spirit medicine one by one, and also put away the Golden Grit Spirit Soil.
After checking with his Divine Sense again and finding no other spiritual objects, Ye Jingcheng walked up to the Golden Light Rhinoceros Demon and continued to inquire about the other treasures on the island.
The Golden Light Rhinoceros Demon was even more frustrated. Its huge rhinoceros head swung like a giant rattle drum, stirring up waves.
Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng didn't say much. Instead, he and Ye Xuecang stepped onto the rhinoceros's back and continued searching for a new nest.
However, upon seeing Ye Xuecang's gaze, Ye Jingcheng couldn't help but feel a sense of solemnity.
Ye Xuecang seemed to have some unfounded worries because of the Sea-Measuring Stele and the Star Sea Fruit.
But Ye Jingcheng still didn't speak.
Regarding the overall situation of the Ye Family, he can currently only control Soaring Cloud Peak at most, but the situation in Azure Cloud Sea Region, and even more, is something Ye Jingcheng has not yet grasped.
He didn't even have specific information about the Ye Family's Hidden Island.
Sometimes, saying too much is counterproductive.
"Jingcheng, what are your thoughts on the future of the Lineage?" Ye Xuecang his hand, and an array plate fell out, covering the back of the Golden Light Rhinoceros.
This was something even the great Golden Light Rhinoceros couldn't hear.
Ye Jingcheng was taken aback, not expecting Ye Xuecang to ask such a question.
Ye Jingcheng did not answer immediately. In fact, neither the Skycloud Archipelago nor the Falling Cloud Archipelago offered any way out for the Ye Family.
The Taihang Mountain Range in the Yan Kingdom made it difficult for the Ye Family to develop.
Despite the Ye Family's seemingly prosperous and powerful state, and their apparent rise to power, they are not immune to the allure of the family.
However, as long as the Green River Sect and the inland sects see even the slightest clue...
The Yun Family will also encounter problems.
The Ye Family could only pin their hopes on the Earth Dragon Demon King.
However, just now, the Earth Dragon Demon King, being Demon Beast of the Ye Family, took the initiative to put away the stone bead and then gave it to Ye Jingcheng, among other actions.
However, Ye Xuecang was not truly placed in the position of master.
That stone bead should indeed belong to the Earth Dragon Demon King. After all, the Earth Dragon Demon King contributed a great deal. Without the Earth Dragon Demon King, Ye Xuecang wouldn't have been able to kill the Sea-Overturning Demon King, let alone the Tianyun.
But Ye Xuecang giving it to them and the Earth Dragon Demon King taking it for themselves without caring about anything are two different things.
Ye Xuecang and the Earth Dragon Demon King definitely have Blood Pact, but Blood Pact are also prone to breaking. There have been precedents of this in the Ye Family, especially when breaking through, Demon Beast can easily break free of Blood Pact.
Not to mention, in time, the Earth Dragon Demon King will break through to the Nascent Soul. At that time, will Ye Xuecang still be able to suppress it?
Before the Star Sea Fruit appears, Ye Xuecang can stall for time, but once the Star Sea Fruit matures, the Earth Dragon Demon King will actively incite Beast Tide in the Azure Cloud Sea Region.
The Ye Family had no choice but to fulfill their previous agreement and imbue the Earth Dragon Demon King with Soul Infusion.
Of course, whether the Earth Dragon Demon King will act that way is still uncertain, but for the Ye Family, it is something they have to consider and guard against.
This is what Ye Xuecang is worried about.
"Concentrate the Lineage and cultivate the highest combat power!" Ye Jingcheng remained silent for a long time, pondering deeply.
There's little need for the Ye Family to expand further now.
The most important thing is to cultivate the Ye Family's top combat force.
As long as Ye Xuecang breaks through quickly enough, the Earth Dragon Demon King will not be able to break free of the contract.
"Are you confident?" Ye Xuecang suddenly asked again.
Ye Jingcheng was taken aback; he hadn't expected Ye Xuecang to answer like that.
In his view, nurturing Ye Xuecang was the most important thing.
He didn't answer for a moment.
But in Ye Xuecang's view, no answer is the best answer.
"I've found the location of Hidden Island for you. The Pill Formula, materials, and Law Treasure will all be prepared by the entire Lineage. In addition, you can continue to promote the cultivation of Golden Rank Pill, water-grade pills, and Fire Sincerity Pill in your spare time!" Ye Xuecang seemed to have made up his mind and immediately spoke up.
As he spoke, he took out another half-ancient map.
"This is the Five Elements Spirit Map of the Five Elements Spirit Palace!" Although Ye Jingcheng had expected it, he was still somewhat excited to see the Five Elements Spirit Map in front of him.
Where are the four phases compared to the five phases?
He has no shortage of resources, nor does he lack Spirit Beast.
The more he drags his feet on cultivation, the faster he will progress.
It should be noted that his Beast-Link Mark is seven inches long, and after Soul Infusion, he can Beast Communion even more Spirit Beast.
"Take a look at it first. If you find any clues, send them to the Skycloud Archipelago. The Lineage will also use the entire Skycloud Archipelago to help you find them!" Ye Xuecang gave the Spirit Diagram to Ye Jingcheng and then gave him a Jade Slip as well.
The Jade Slip contained the location of Ye Jingcheng's Hidden Island.
This Hidden Island is also in a very advantageous location, near the Sand Hidden Island.
There is an island lake on top, with forests, mountains, and a third-grade Spirit Vein.
There is also a spiritual spring, which, although not as good as the Spirit Eye Spring, is still quite good.
Ye Jingcheng is excellent at both hunting demons and luring them to the island.
Moreover, this Hidden Island is located in an area that the Ye Family had never been involved in before.
Previously, the Ye Family might not have been able to take such a risk, but now that the Earth Dragon Demon King is near the Sea-Overturning Demon King's lair, Ye Jingcheng's danger is much less.
As long as Ye Jingcheng can escape the first attack, the Earth Dragon Demon King can save Ye Jingcheng.
"You can think of a name for the island yourself. Speaking of which, you should also prepare your own Daoist title!" Ye Xuecang suddenly smiled.
Ye Jingcheng broke through to the Purple Mansion and naturally received the title of "Supreme One." In the future, when he traveled in the Cultivation World, he would have a name to speak of.
For example, Ye Haicheng is Lingyun Shangren, Ye Xuecang is Tai Cang, Ye Haihe is Xianhe Shangren.
"Let's call him Qianchen (Qianchen) and the Hidden Island Chenyin Island (Dust-Hidden Island)!" Hearing Ye Xuecang say this, Ye Jingcheng relaxed a bit.
He had naturally considered his Daoist name; Qianchen was devout and hoped to maintain his unwavering Dao Heart.
"That's right!" Ye Xuecang, then fell silent, seemingly having received his answer.
Ye Jingcheng remained silent and continued to rest with his eyes closed.
Soon, a small black dot began to appear at the far end of the sea.
The small dot grew larger and larger until it transformed into a vast island, appearing before everyone.
"This is the lair of that golden-legged bird!" the Golden Rhinoceros Demon King exclaimed.
As he spoke, he seemed to be craving something.
After all, the Golden Great Roc Bird was a Metal Attribute Demon Beast, which was extremely nourishing to its body. It had once fantasized about hunting it, but the Golden Great Roc Bird flew extremely high and was extremely fast, making it impossible for it to hunt it.
Soon, they arrived on the island.
This is Goldenwood Island, and on the island stands a massive 800-year-old Golden Wood.
The Golden Great Roc Bird's nest landed on the metal-elemental wood.
Ye Jingcheng's Divine Sense landed on the wood and discovered a huge nest, inside which were two golden spirit eggs.
Ye Jingcheng hadn't expected this unexpected gain.
However, after he flew to the Golden Wood and sensed the advancement level of the two spirit eggs, he found that each of them only had three advancement opportunities. They were considered mid-level bloodline Demon Beast, which were naturally not very useful to Ye Jingcheng. But if placed in the Lineage and carefully nurtured, they could be cultivated into the Purple Mansion Great Demons.
Moreover, the Ye Family already possesses a first-tier Five Phases Advancement Pill, so the descendant of the Golden Great Roc Bird must be extremely compatible with the Golden Falcon Pill.
The Ye Family could certainly cultivate more Demon Beast like the Golden Great Roc Bird.
Ye Jingcheng put away the Golden Great Roc Bird's Spirit Beast egg, and then transplanted the golden wood into the Grotto-Heaven.
This kind of spiritual wood is also a top-quality material, which can be used to refine Wood Attribute Law Treasure or Metal Attribute Law Treasure.
Ye Jingcheng's gaze remained fixed on the island, and he also spotted a spirit mine in the distance.
However, after probing downwards with his Divine Sense, he discovered that it was only a first-tier Spirit Stone mine.
These Spirit Stone mines are of little use to the Ye Family, unless they designate the entire Outer Sea as a safe zone.
Otherwise, it would be difficult to arrange for cultivators to come and mine. Ye Jingcheng took out Jade Slip, made a record of it, and then quickly left the island.
Upon seeing Ye Jingcheng approach, the Golden Light Rhinoceros Demon was actually drooling with desire, clearly wanting to eat the Golden Great Roc Bird's egg.
Ye Jingcheng naturally wouldn't give it to him. Besides, he didn't offer any other spirit pills or Spirit Beast meat. After all, this wasn't his Spirit Beast, and it was a newly tamed Spirit Beast. It would be a big no-no to feed it for him!
After all, Ye Xuecang might still be training the latter right now.
Next, Ye Jingcheng and Ye Xuecang continued their search for the great demon's cave abode.
Ye Xuecang never went to the island. This was a benefit Ye Xuecang gave to Ye Jingcheng, which Ye Haicheng had mentioned to Ye Jingcheng before.
After all, it was Ye Jingcheng who held back the Demon King when he broke through to the Golden Core stage.
Those who don't go to the island naturally can't receive a share of the treasure; this is also a rule of the Ye Family.
Ye Jingcheng also visited the cave abode of the great demons he had killed, including the Red-Crowned Sea Crane, the Golden Great Roc Bird, the Ghost-Faced Shark, and the Sword-Toothed Shark.
This brought him a lot of spirit medicine and resources, as well as two baby Sword-Toothed Shark, but both baby sharks only had two chances to advance, which Ye Jingcheng didn't think much of.
However, given his innate talent, he still has the potential to break through to the level of Demon King in the future.
Ye Jingcheng then put it away, intending to place it in the Lineage later.
While it's useless to cultivators from the Yan Kingdom, it's quite useful to cultivators from Hidden Island.
After collecting everything, Ye Jingcheng felt somewhat unsatisfied, but the area was already empty. Ye Jingcheng estimated that most of the treasures in this sea area were gone, as evidenced by the fact that the great demon had been Demon-Luring Grass.
Beyond that lies the sea territory of other Demon King, where the dangers are much greater.
We even have to consider the Demon Emperor Shui Yi.
"When you return to Soaring Cloud Island, you should hone your alchemy skills. If you encounter any problems, you can ask your Third Ancestor!" Ye Xuefan said again.
