That Pinch Was Deep

Black Horn Island is an island located off the Purplewood Island, near the Outer Sea.

Ye Jingcheng concealed himself and rode the Blue Spirit Shuttle into the island.

To his surprise, Ye Haifei and Ye Xingyu were not on the island, only...

Ye Haicheng and Ye Xuefan were ready.

Both of them were at the mid-stage of the Purple Mansion, and with the addition of some Spirit Beasts, they were not afraid even when facing late-stage Purple Mansion opponents.

"It's inevitable that Azure Spirit Commerce Association might have some backup plans. We've all landed inside through the Vast Azure Turtle, which makes it easier to silence them!" Ye Xuefan Ye Jingcheng after confirming Ye Jingcheng's identity by taking out the Beast-Link Mark.

This collaboration with the Azure Spirit Commerce Association to seize the Five Elements True Lord's treasure is undoubtedly the most risky move the Ye Family has ever made.

On the surface, the Azure Spirit Commerce Association is just one of the many chambers of commerce in Medicine King Valley, but the major powers all know that behind the Azure Spirit Commerce Association is a True Lord from Medicine King Valley in the Zhao Kingdom Cultivation World.

The Ye Family secretly sent people through loopholes in the Heavenly Dao Oath, so they were naturally worried that the Azure Spirit Commerce Association would do the same.

However, the Ye Family has an advantage over the Azure Spirit Commerce Association in that the Ye Family operates in the shadows, while the Azure Spirit Commerce Association operates in the open.

"In addition, your Dragon Ancestor is also on his way. However, your Second Ancestor needs to deter the villains in the Skycloud Archipelago to prevent the Green River Sect from noticing and thus be unable to arrive!" Ye Xuefan guessed that Ye Jingcheng was about to say something and added at the same time.

"Good!" Ye Jingcheng breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this. No matter how careful the Ye Family was, they could never be too careful when facing the Azure Spirit Commerce Association.

Even if it's a wasted trip, it's better than regretting it later.

The Azure Spirit Commerce Association in the Falling Cloud Archipelago is powerful enough to rival True Person Immortal Luoyun.

As for whether the Earth Dragon Demon King would come, the Ye Family had no doubt at all.

The Star Sea Fruit awaits ripening, and the Ye Family is collecting Beast Souls. The Earth Dragon Demon King is definitely the one who least wants anything to happen to the Ye Family.

"When will Seventh Grandfather and the others arrive?" Ye Jingcheng asked.

"Hai Fei will be here in about three days, that's the agreed time. They'll pass through here and take the Spirit Beast bracelets with them when they set off!" Ye Xuefan didn't hide anything.

As expected, after waiting for about a day, the Earth Dragon Demon King, dressed in a golden robe, landed in front of them.

"I'm not late, am I?" The Earth Dragon Demon King looked quite relaxed.

"Not too late, just in time!" Ye Xuefan said.

Then Ye Haicheng released the Vast Azure Turtle.

As soon as Vast Azure Turtle saw Ye Jingcheng, he stroked his beard, about to put on an air of superiority and teach Ye Jingcheng a lesson.

After all, how could one remain in seclusion for so long!

For over seven years, it has been harmed without ever experiencing the taste of Treasure Radiance.

However, upon seeing the Earth Dragon Demon King and Ye Xuefan behind them, they immediately shrank back in embarrassment.

The words were swallowed back.

Although Ye Xuefan was kind, he was the most cruel to his Ye Family members and other Ye Xuefan.

"Little Turtle, open the spatial storage. Then you wait here for Hai Fei. Also, check if anyone else is following us!" Ye Xuefan instructed.

"Yes, Fourth Elder!" Vast Azure Turtle nodded hurriedly, obediently.

The space opened up, and the three of them entered directly inside.

Ye Jingcheng could see that the Turtle Ancestor's Grotto-Heaven was still very large, at least ten times larger than his Stone Spirit Grotto-Heaven.

But Ye Jingcheng didn't find it unreasonable, after all, the Turtle Ancestor's Grotto-Heaven had been open for over a hundred years.

His Stone Spirit Grotto-Heaven over ten years, and even the Turtle Ancestor is at the third level, while his Stone Spirit Grotto-Heaven is only at the second level, making it difficult to break through or advance.

Of course, Ye Jingcheng was extremely interested in the scenery inside the Turtle Ancestor Grotto-Heaven.

He released his Divine Sense and quickly discovered that the place was home to a large number of ordinary wild beasts and low-level Spirit Beasts.

There are many Mountain-Devouring Rats, Dense Forest Pigs, and Cloud-Horn Deer raised here, as well as a huge spirit lake, which is home to many Red-Node Fish and Star-Eating Fish.

At the same time, there are probably tens of thousands of ordinary people living here.

There are even seven or eight Spirit Veins.

There were several so-called mineral veins, which surprised Ye Jingcheng, as the Turtle Ancestor had once mentioned to him the Secret Method for creating mineral veins.

However, after carefully sensing it, Ye Jingcheng discovered that it was just ordinary first-grade Red Iron and gave up.

The Turtle Ancestor has been like this for so long, so if he were to study it, it probably wouldn't be very effective. It would be better to cultivate more Spirit Veins to increase the growth rate of spirit medicine.

After looking around, Ye Jingcheng, like the others, set up a cave abode and began to meditate quietly.

The summer sky was a clear, deep blue. In Heaven One City, three obese rogue Rogue Cultivators dressed in hemp clothing slowly walked out of a restaurant.

"This restaurant is good, but expensive; the girls Water Spirit, but tiring..." The fattest Rogue Cultivator rubbed his hands together, his eyes narrowed into slits, humming a rhyme and swaying his head.

Of course, if someone were to look closely, they would notice that two of the three have the same light in their pupils, only their bodies are different.

The three of them left the restaurant and quickly flew away.

In the restaurant opposite them, there were also two people sitting face to face.

"Do you think they might have already left?" one of the burly men said in a low voice.

"Impossible. We've all been guarding this place, and there aren't any two people or even a single person who match their aura and cultivation level. Besides, the two Azure Spirit Tokens are still inside the room, and I just confirmed with the waiter that there are two more people inside!"

The middle-aged man with the mole next to him was clearly more shrewd. As he spoke, he glanced at the telepathic Spirit Talisman and cursed under his breath.

"They've also hired two prostitutes!!"

They've been guarding the place for almost a month, and they've already spent quite a few Spirit Stones on wine.

If I had known it would be like this, I would have taken turns calling up a few furnaces to cultivate myself!

Of course, despite their complaints, they still kept a close watch, which put them at ease. Chief Qing was a newly transferred official who was said to have powerful backers in the Zhao Kingdom and was also highly renowned in the Falling Cloud Archipelago.

They certainly didn't want to offend this person!

The two men kept watch for three more days and saw the three fat men return once again.

All three of them had a gleam in their eyes, and continued humming the catchy tune.

"This restaurant is good, but expensive; the girls Water Spirit, but it's tiring..."

The two couldn't help but start fighting.

Half an hour later, the slightly overweight cultivator spoke up repeatedly:

It moved!

"They've gone out!" The middle-aged man with the mole also watched as the two cultivators wearing Spirit-Isolating Robes walked away from the entrance of the restaurant.

Even though one of them was wearing Spirit-Isolating Robe, he still grabbed a female cultivator's plump and rounded breasts at the entrance of the restaurant, pinching them until they were somewhat deformed.

This drew a few scolding remarks before he laughed and left.

Even the chubby Xiu, who was observing from the side, stared wide-eyed.

"That's a really deep pinch!"

At the border between the Falling Cloud Archipelago and the Skycloud Archipelago, the Qing Kongying upon one of the islands.

He looked at the token with a cautious expression, and only relaxed after a full incense stick's time had passed.

The more important something is, the more careful you should be.

In a few years, it will be the 1200th birthday banquet of True Monarch Qinghong of Medicine King Valley. If we can take the inheritance of True Monarch Five Elements over there...

He won't have to worry about resources until he breaks through to the Golden Core stage.

This is also why he went to great lengths to travel from the Zhao Kingdom to the Azure Cloud Sea Region.

"Lord Qing, they have already agreed to meet at an island a thousand miles to the north!" a black-robed man behind Qing Kongying said.

"Call me Master Qing!" Qing Kongying glanced at him coldly.

"Yes, Master Qing!" the man quickly replied.

The two piloted a second-tier high-grade spirit shuttle towards the island.

It was a small island, less than a hundred feet in circumference.

A first-order illusion was also set up above.

Upon seeing the two arrive, sounds could be heard from inside.

"Is it Master Qing of the Azure Spirit Commerce Association?"

"Indeed, may I ask if the Spirit Diagram has been brought?" Qing Kongying also spoke coldly.

"Of course I brought it." Ye Haifei's voice changed to the same tone as it had been at the market that day.

A Jade Slip Jade Slip in his hand, containing two Spirit Diagrams.

"However, Master Qing, we have two routes, while you only have one. If we go together and split the spoils fifty-fifty, I don't think that's fair!" Ye Haifei said.

"Oh, then in your opinion, how should we divide it?" Qing Kongying was not angry.

"Except for the inheritance, the profits will be split 70/30! The inheritance will be divided equally, and Heavenly Dao Oath must be sworn that the treasure hunt will not be revealed to outsiders!"

"At most, it's a 60/40 split. Without my treasure map, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to find any clues about the cave abode!" Qing Kongying's expression darkened, and he directly refused.

"Okay, 60/40!" After agreeing, the two each took out their five-colored Spirit Diagrams.

As soon as the three five-colored Spirit Diagrams appeared, they seemed to come alive and indeed moved towards piecing together a piece.

Finally, a complete treasure map was pieced together, but the patterns on it changed, and the route eventually deviated.

It points directly to a location in the Outer Sea of Falling Cloud Sea Region.

Upon seeing this, Ye Haifei finally understood why they had been unable to find it before; it turned out that without collecting all three Spirit Diagram, the route was wrong.

"Whoosh!" Just then, Ye Haifei slashed out with his sword, cutting the Spirit Diagram back to its previous shape and pulling a large piece into his hand.

"This..." Qing Kongying's brows furrowed instantly, and a chill emanated from him!

"Master Qing, we are just Rogue Cultivators. If you intend to harm us, we have no means of countermeasure and can only keep the Spirit Diagram in our hands. After all, the Array keys of many inheritance cave abode are treasure maps!" Ye Haifei said cautiously.

Qing Kongying returned to normal, and he held the remaining treasure map in his hand.

"Then let's not delay, let's set off now!" Qing Kongying said.

The four of them immediately steered two Spirit Boats towards the Outer Sea!
