The Real Reason-They Could Only Beg for Death!
The Spirit Boat was still moving forward, and Chen Yan clearly wouldn't allow Spirit Boat to stop.
Even though the situation is urgent.
Just then, the setting sun shone again, its yellow light illuminating the deck of the Spirit Boat and the blood-soaked figures.
This makes them appear even more miserable and bloody.
These were placed in the Spirit Beast pouch. Both of their hands were chopped off. Ye Jingcheng swept his Divine Sense over them and found that their Qi Sea was completely shattered.
He has been reduced from a Qi Refining cultivator to a cripple.
It was unclear whether it even possessed any consciousness; it was like a lump of rotten flesh, which was then put into the Spirit Beast pouch.
Even suicide was impossible for him; his mind had been given spirit medicine.
At this moment, Ye Jingcheng had a bad feeling.
He suddenly realized they had missed the most important link.
That was the Green River Sect's objective.
Is the Green River Sect truly only interested in destroying the Taiyi Sect, seizing Taiyi Sect territory, and then monopolizing over a dozen counties in the Yan Kingdom, becoming a sect that controls the entire country?
It is important to understand that sects need a pretext to launch attacks against each other; otherwise, it would be considered the behavior of Demon Sects, which is despised by the righteous path.
Regardless of the impact, the Penglai Immortal Sect of the Qin Kingdom certainly wouldn't want to lose even one of its subordinates.
Ye Jingcheng also thought of the last words spoken by the Wu Family during their Foundation Establishment.
They clearly knew the Ye Family.
Ye Xueliang also told him that after the Ye Family cultivators intercepted and killed the Cheng Family cultivators, they had arranged for a Heavenly Corpse Sect cultivator with considerable strength to join them.
This all suggests that the heads of the Ye Family members could be sold for Spirit Stones.
But Ye Jingcheng also knew that this was probably not aimed at the Ye Family.
It may be a purge of the entire Taichang Three Counties' power.
Even more alarmingly, the subordinate forces of the three prefectures of Taichang and the Green River Four Prefectures are also among the targets of the purge.
But the most terrifying thing is the purge of the major Lineage, the search of their suspicious Lineage, the mass disappearance of cultivators, the mass soul searches and interrogations, and the search for the whereabouts of Spirit Treasures!
In order to find the descendants of the Beast Wasteland and the secret treasure, it is clear that even if the Cultivation World of an entire country were to completely collapse, those cultivators behind the scenes would be willing to do so.
Ye Jingcheng felt he had grasped the key point and immediately began searching the souls of the Wu Family's Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining stages.
To his surprise, the Wu Family's Foundation Establishment Soul Search failed, as it was blocked by the Lineage's jade book and soul restriction.
The Qi Refining cultivator, however, succeeded in searching the soul.
This Qi Refining cultivator was named Wu Quanshuang, the thirteenth member of the Quan generation of the Wu Family. Their orders were also to leave a few members of the Zhou Family alive.
Moreover, Wu Quanshuang knew that the order must have been given after the disciples of the Green River Sect had visited.
Ye Jingcheng then understood perfectly.
He burned both of their bodies.
The spirit that has been forcibly searched will collapse directly, and the one with the soul restriction had already lost its spirit when Ye Jingcheng searched its soul.
Both are completely useless.
With a burst of flame, it quickly turned to ashes.
"Patriarch, these are the spoils of war!" Ye Jingli joyfully as he placed three Storage Bags inside.
Seeing Ye Jingli's smile, Ye Jingcheng guessed that the Wu Family had plundered quite a bit.
This is, after all, a sect-wide operation, and they need to prepare for 40% of the profits. Of course, whether the Taiyi Sect will accept them is their Taiyi Sect business.
The Ye Family has already killed Li Xuan'an, so naturally they cannot kill Chen Yan as well.
Moreover, compared to Li Xuan'an's reckless personality, Chen Yan was easier to manipulate. The Ye Family didn't covet the wealth of Foundation Establishment Lineage; what he hoped for was to delay their arrival at the Taiyi Sect.
He didn't want to confront Tianfu True Person, much less Nascent Soul True Person.
"Put it here!" Ye Jingcheng nodded and continued to recover his Spiritual Qi.
Of course, while he claimed to be restoring Spiritual Qi, he was actually researching Spirit Control.
The deeper Ye Jingcheng mastered the Spirit Control Wood Demon, the stronger his body's regenerative abilities became. Moreover, he even possessed a strong ability to break through restrictions, which was far superior to simply converting True Essence and spiritual power into Beast Communion.
He hadn't cultivated the Spirit Control Technique before because he thought it would only increase his defense. But in fact, after Spirit Control, Ye Jingcheng could become a completely different person. As long as he had the Blood Soul Pearl Spirit Treasure on him, no one could recognize him.
After the Spirit Control was finished, Ye Jingcheng took the Storage Bag and glanced at it.
Then a look of joy appeared on his face; Ye Jingli really hadn't lied to him.
The harvest here is quite substantial, including over a hundred century-old spirit medicine and three millennium-old spirit medicine.
Although it was useless for his Advancement Pills, it was suitable for Ye Jingcheng to refine second-tier Advancement Pills for the Lineage's Spirit Beasts.
There are also several spirit medicine that can be used to refine third-tier elixirs, which will greatly help his Spirit Beast cultivation.
Although the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon has now transformed into a true dragon, its cultivation progress has slowed down.
This isn't because Jade-Scale Flood Dragon's cultivation speed is slow, but rather because the gap between the mid-stage and late-stage Purple Mansion is greater than the gap between the early and mid-stages of the Purple Mansion.
We need more spirit medicine or greater resources; otherwise, we can only wait for time to accumulate them.
Of course, there's another point: if the Dragon Whisker Fruit can ripen, Ye Jingcheng's Jade-Scale Flood Dragon will definitely be able to break through to the late stage of the third tier.
However, his Treasure Radiance cannot stimulate the spirit tree; it only increases the spirit tree's absorption and transformation capabilities, making it grow better.
Ye Jingcheng quickly sorted through the spirit medicine, collecting the useful ones, especially those whose spirit medicine and stems were still in excellent condition and could be moved into his own Grotto-Heaven.
Outside the Spirit Boat, Chen Yan was also carrying three Storage Bags.
Although the value of these three Storage Bags has been greatly reduced, Chen Yan will still have a greater number of Storage Bags with Ye Xingqun present.
At this moment, he looked around with a joyful expression, his Divine Senses fully extended.
It seems the longing has shifted.
Those who went to the Taichang Mountain Range were cultivators from the Green River Sect.
He was also a cultivator of the Green River Sect in Taichang Commandery, and these two things do not conflict at all.
But where would he find such a great harvest?
As for what the True Person confessed, being pursued by the Purple Mansion is understandable.
"Fellow Daoist Ye, you must all be careful. If any other Lineage are harmed by the Evil Cultivators of the Green River Sect, we will not let them get away with it!"
"How can the land of Taichang tolerate the insolence of the petty Green River!" Chen Yan declared righteously.
As she spoke, she glanced at Ye Jingcheng's room, and seeing no reaction, nodded even more in confirmation.
Taichang Mountain Range, Taichang Market.
The battle between the several True Person intensified.
The two West King True Person and Zitian True Person continued to observe with indifference.
You say one thing, I say another.
It was as if there hadn't been a life-or-death struggle at all.
However, the True Person confrontation is not over yet.
The massive Azure Jade Black Tortoise Battle Formation clashed continuously with the White Tiger True Spirit of the Taiyi Sect. In addition, there was the Myriad Swords Return to One Grand Formation of Taiyi Sword Peak and the Mystic River Sword Formation of the Green River Sect.
The stalemate reached its peak.
The Daoist Divine Ability of the two families actually have similarities.
However, this situation is ultimately not good for the Taiyi Sect.
Many of the array bases in the Taichang Mountain Range have been completely destroyed by the Blood Array Fish and the Formation-Breaking Talisman.
Fortunately, the Five Spirits Grand Formation of the Taiyi Sect relies more on the main array base.
However, the power of the Array will certainly be weakened.
"How many more are missing?" At that moment, West King True Person murmured.
It was as if they were communicating telepathically.
After confirming it several times, a light appeared in his eyes!
A blood-red sword appeared on his chest.
It is also the West King True Person's natal magic Law Treasure, the West King Blood Mother Sword!
"Old Daoist Zitian, the fate of the Taiyi Sect has run its course today. I, the King, will send you off on your final journey!" West King True Person Xiwang laughed loudly.
Then, a terrifying suction force suddenly began to emerge from the blood sword in his hand.
At the same time, all the blood and gore on the battlefield seemed to be drawn by this sword.
"This is a demonic sword! You're associating with Devil Cultivators! Your Green River Sect deserves to be exterminated!" Zitian True Person also moved.
A compass appeared in his hand, filled with a purple aura.
As the incantation was made, the compass immediately began to bloom like a flower.
It transformed into a violet flower!
They faced the West King Blood Mother Sword.
Boom!
In an instant, the blood-red and purple light filled the entire void of the market, and countless Purple Mansion cultivators, under the residual force, frantically retreated to their surroundings.
The Taiyi Sect retreated into the Array.
After the Green River Sect retreated into the Black Tortoise Battle Formation.
Even so, the residual power of the light shattered the Black Tortoise Battle Formation and caused the Taiyi Sect's protective Array to become unstable.
Clearly, both of their natal magic Law Treasure have been nurtured for many years, and their power is now comparable to a Fifth Stage strike.
At that very moment, a figure in blue robes stepped out from the void above the Green River Sect.
When this figure stepped out, even the West King True Person had to take a half step back.
"Greetings, Uncle-Master Beihe!" West King True Person greeted with a cupped hand.
Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed drastically.
Even the True Person of the Taiyi Sect looked extremely grim at this moment.
It was known long ago that the Green River Sect had two Nascent Soul.
However, there are different levels of Nascent Soul, especially between the Nascent Soul Middle Stage and Nascent Soul Early Stages, where the difference is not much smaller than that between Nascent Soul and Golden Core cultivators.
Previously, only the Green River Patriarch Green River Sect was at the Nascent Soul Middle Stage, but now, even the North River Patriarch is at the Nascent Soul Middle Stage.
It should be noted that the North River Patriarch is not very old. Compared to his long lifespan of two thousand years, he could have controlled the entire Yan Kingdom for thousands of years.
"Daoist Beihe, although I should address you as a senior, today, Ziming still suggests that you prioritize the overall situation!" Just then, a figure in purple robes walked out from Taichang Market.
He was wearing a five-mountain robe.
These are clearly robes that only the head of the Taiyi Sect can wear.
It was Sikong Ziming had been in seclusion at the Taiyi Sect for nearly a century.
At this moment, his cultivation level was also at the Nascent Soul.
Although they were only at the Nascent Soul Early Stage realm, the Taiyi Sect still held the advantage of location.
A Nascent Soul Cultivator activating the Taiyi Five Spirit Grand Formation can still resist a Nascent Soul Middle Stage.
"Prioritize the greater good? Then hand over the murderer who killed my disciple! My disciple Xiao Xuanhe has already perished. He was a Nascent Soul seed of our Green River Sect. Hand over another Infant Transformation Pill, and I will leave today!" North River Patriarch coldly shouted.
This also made Sikong Ziming's expression turn sour.
This was a trumped-up charge; he couldn't explain it, and of course, explanations were useless. Strength is the only truth.
Moreover, he couldn't produce the Infant Transformation Pill either.
The entire Taiyi Sect squeezed out countless forces and explored countless secret realms before finally managing to refine an Infant Transformation Pill.
"This is easy to discuss. The disciple who killed your apprentice is indeed not currently in the Taiyi Sect. We can use the Spirit-Inquiring Talisman to check here. As for the Infant Transformation Pill, could you grant me thirty years?" Just when everyone thought Sikong Ziming would fly into a rage, his expression changed again, and he softened his tone.
These words naturally caused the Taiyi Sect to lose face.
But indeed, if Taiyi Sect can hold on, losing some face is not a big deal.
After all, this is a crisis that could wipe out the entire family.
It is equally rare to be able to avert a crisis and gain a thirty-year respite with a single Infant Transformation Pill.
"Thirty years is too long!" North River Patriarch refused outright!
"Whether we should give it or not, let's do it first and then decide!" North River Patriarch took out a blue spirit pearl.
In an instant, it seemed as if a celestial river was floating in the air, about to collapse towards the entire Taichang Mountain Range.
No one doubted that once this celestial river descended, it would turn the entire Taichang Mountain Range into a vast expanse of water.
Meanwhile, Sikong Ziming also took out a seal.
As soon as the seal and Law Treasure appeared, the entire Taichang Mountain Range began to roar.
Five True Spirits emerged from within the mountain range and rushed towards them.
The White Tiger True Spirit and the Black Tortoise True Spirit are placed at the front, followed by the Vermilion Bird True Spirit and the Azure Dragon True Spirit, and finally the Qilin True Spirit.
The five True Spirits faced the Milky Way, and the spiritual shield of the entire Taichang Mountain Range became even thinner.
Clearly, one cannot possess both extreme offensive and defensive capabilities simultaneously!
Boom!
Most of the void was submerged by the roars of the five Spirit Beasts and the water.
Apart from the spiritual light, nothing else could be seen in the entire void.
Even those Golden True Person had fled far away at this moment.
Clearly, in the battle for Nascent Soul, even a Golden Core cultivator cannot do anything, not even by assisting from the sidelines.
As the battle for Nascent Soul began, the spiritual shield Array of the Taichang Mountain Range crumbled one after another.
All the forces of the Green River Sect rushed towards the Taiyi Sect's array base!
Ye Xingyi and Ye Xingqing were among them at that moment.
At that moment, a flying sword shot out and severed the head of the second-tier Fire-Swallowing Sparrow.
At the same time, several cultivators from the Green River Sect approached Ye Xingyi, Ye Jinghao, and the others.
Their target was none other than the seven members of the Ye Family.
"Everyone, fight to the death!" Ye Xingyi roared!
These words were meant for Ye Xingqing hear, as she was the only one here who had Beast Communion.
He sensed a crisis.
Today, all they can do is seek death!
