Inviting the Clan Uncle's Soul to Return

In front of a small courtyard in the South Mountain, several fireballs ignited with torrential flames.

The firelight also erased the traces of the fight.

The second-tier top-grade Spirit Boat has finally been replaced with a third-tier Spirit Boat.

At this moment, everyone was holding several Storage Bags in their hands, and their faces were filled with joy.

This is the third Foundation Establishment Lineage they have encountered after the Wei Family.

These Lineage were discovered by Ye Jingcheng when they ventured deep into Taichang Commandery, and he then deliberately led them to hunt them down.

"Junior Brother Ye, the Sima Family is truly insidious. They only target Qi Refining Lineage. If it weren't for us, I don't know how many more fellow Daoists in Taichang Commandery would have suffered persecution at their hands!" Chen Yan exclaimed repeatedly, beaming with joy.

If it weren't for the inappropriate timing, Chen Yan would have been planning to celebrate with Ye Jingli and the others right now.

The Spirit Stone resources he obtained on these three occasions were enough for him to cultivate to the peak of the Foundation Establishment.

"It's all thanks to Senior Brother Chen's Spirit Talisman. Without Senior Brother Chen's Spirit Talisman and guidance, we wouldn't have been able to achieve this!" Ye Jingli replied repeatedly.

Upon hearing this, both of them smiled, their hearts filled with pride.

Although they did not arrive in Taichang Commandery in time, it was already difficult for the injured Purple Mansion to lead the team to reach the Taichang Mountain Range.

They achieved great things despite the difficulties.

The Ye Family's losses amounted to only a handful of people.

However, at that moment, the token in Chen Yan's hand suddenly lit up.

After taking a look, Chen Yan was overjoyed.

"Those old scoundrels from the Green River, you really think our Taiyi Sect doesn't have Nascent Soul Ancestor? Little do you know that our ancestor has already planned this all along!" Chen Yan said, his eyes filled with fervor.

If the Taiyi Sect suffers too many losses, they might still be held accountable for their small contribution.

However, the Taiyi Sect has not suffered much loss; the greatest losses have been suffered by the aristocratic families of Taichang Commandery.

This was no less than the Beast Tide in Taihang Commandery.

But for Chen Yan and the entire sect, the extent of those Lineage losses is irrelevant.

As long as the sect is safe, Chen Yan's act of killing the troublemaking groups of three Lineage can definitely be considered a great achievement.

"Patriarch Ye Family, the invasion of the Green River Sect is not over yet. Negotiations are underway, and True Lord have appeared one after another. We should head there as soon as possible!" Chen Yan also looked at Ye Jingcheng in the room.

Upon hearing this, Ye Jingcheng immediately understood that the great battle was probably not going to continue.

Because there would be no result, with Nascent Soul Cultivators emerging and the complex relationships between the various Nascent Soul, the fight would basically not continue.

After all, if you can't kill the opponent, it's easy for Nascent Soul Cultivator to escape.

Without the constraints of any powerful force, Nascent Soul Cultivators would be incredibly formidable at that time.

In the various kingdoms of the Eastern Region, rogue cultivators who have reached the Golden Rogue Cultivator are treated with great respect by the major sects.

It's precisely because we're afraid these Rogue Cultivators will cause trouble.

"Alright, Junior Nephew Chen, don't worry, I have recovered a lot of my True Essence!" After saying that, Ye Jingcheng steered the Spirit Boat straight towards the Taichang Mountain Range.

His Lineage Token kept transmitting messages, but there was no reply from Ye Xingyi.

This also made Ye Jingcheng somewhat worried.

After Ye Jinghu looked at the soul scroll and learned that only four people remained, he felt a pang of grief.

The image of Ye Xingyi unconsciously appeared in his mind.

Ye Jingcheng was naturally very familiar with this uncle, after all, he had worked with him in Taichang Market for more than ten years.

He was not good with words, nor did he smile much, but his dedication to the Great Way was no less than anyone else's.

Even after reaching the Foundation Establishment, they did not slacken their efforts in the slightest.

Moreover, he is a key figure in the Ye Family.

He is a mid-grade second-tier Alchemist.

He can be considered the second-best alchemist in the Ye family's Lingyun Peak, second only to him in skill level, and his skills are far superior to Ye Jingyun's.

After all, Ye Jingyun, as the head of the family for so many years, had wasted a lot of time.

Of course, amidst his grief, Ye Jingcheng's eyes also turned extremely cold.

He knew that the most intense struggle would be the one that was yet to come, the one that was unseen.

If he relaxes even slightly, problems may arise.

Moreover, he must not go to the Taichang Mountain Range, let alone see the Tianfu True Person.

He was carrying Ye Xuecang with him; if they really went up the Taichang Mountain Range, the Ye Family would lose everything!

He guessed that Chen Yan was hiding something, so he spoke up as well:

"Nephew Chen, I'd like to ask about the situation in the Taichang Mountain Range, and what losses my Ye Family has suffered?" Ye Jingcheng asked tentatively.

Chen Yan didn't hesitate and spoke directly:

"The Iron Fist True Person of Martial Peak has fallen, and many peaks have been lost, but the core formation and foundation remain. As for the Ye Family, I hope you will accept my condolences, Uncle..."

"Junior Nephew Chen, I understand!" Ye Jingcheng nodded.

Then Ye Jingcheng stepped out of the Spirit Boat, now dressed in a white robe.

When Ye Jingcheng walked out in a white robe, the rest of the Ye Family members also tacitly changed into white robes.

"Uncle-Master Ye, this..."

"Uncle Xingyi's kindness to me is greater than that of a father. My lifelong expertise in alchemy comes from two sources: my fourth grandfather and my Uncle Xingyi. But I..."

Ye Jingcheng was suddenly overcome with emotion and felt like she was about to shed tears.

The entire third-tier Spirit Boat, which initially featured everyone in Daoist robes, was now entirely covered in white cloth.

White satin was hung in every corner of the Spirit Boat.

They even lit white candles.

In the mortal realm and within Lineage, many believe that only by lighting candles and wearing mourning robes can the Heroic Spirits be guided back.

For the Ye Family, Ye Xingyi is undoubtedly Heroic Spirits of the Lineage.

"If it weren't for my inability to consolidate my cultivation and the calamity that delayed me..." Ye Jingcheng sighed deeply and bowed deeply towards the direction of the Taichang Mountain Range.

Chen Yan, who was standing to the side, remained silent. As a cultivator from a sect, he naturally did not understand this behavior.

But that doesn't prevent him from respecting this behavior.

Whether it's a Golden Nascent Soul, a Nascent Spirit Transformation cultivator, all have an end to their lifespan. Naturally, all cultivators want their souls to return to their homeland.

The path of life is long and arduous; it would be even better to ascend step by step, like a bird taking Ascension.

But if that's not possible, people still hope to have a place where their souls can rest and receive offerings and prayers.

"Uncle Ye, please don't worry!"

"Thank you, Junior Nephew Chen. My Uncle Xingyi has no children and has never married. Today, I can only wear mourning clothes to guide him and keep vigil!" Ye Jingcheng also cupped his hands, his face still filled with grief.

"Jingcheng, what about your marriage?" Just then, Ye Xingqun spoke up from the side.

"There's still a month to spare for the wedding, no rush!" Ye Jingcheng shook his head.

Seeing this, Chen Yan stopped talking.

The fact that everyone was wearing white robes made him a little flustered, so he changed into a white robe as well.

Even if they weren't members of the Ye Family, at least they could blend into the somber atmosphere.

He didn't even check the Storage Bag anymore; he was afraid he wouldn't be able to control his emotions.

Of course, after integrating himself, Chen Yan began passing on messages while no one was paying attention.

Upon seeing this, Ye Jingcheng nodded.

Although the grief on his face was genuine, it was also a prelude to his return home.

After all, the mourning period is traditionally seven days.

There is no such thing as changing spirits midway; even if Tianfu True Person were to truly pass away, he would still have to guard each one.

Although a teacher's kindness is like that of a father, Ye Xingyi him say this, was also like an uncle and a father.

Moreover, Ye Xingyi died first.

Seeing that there was nothing else amiss, Ye Jingcheng once again concealed his cultivation level. At the same time, he also fully activated his True Essence, sending the Spirit Boat heading towards the Taichang Mountain Range.

All the developments are still within his plan.

Everything went extremely smoothly from then on. Ye Jingcheng didn't look for any other Lineage of the Green River Sect, and of course, he couldn't find any even if he wanted to.

They have now mostly gone into hiding, and no affiliated force will continue to attack the various Spirit Mountains.

Ye Jingcheng was able to find it before because he was extremely familiar with the clan mountains of the major Lineage in Taichang Commandery.

Such a harvest can only be obtained by traversing the Spirit Mountains of various Lineage.

In the Ye Family, as the head of the family, knowing the clan mountains of the major powers in the Taiyi Three Prefectures is a basic requirement.

To be more precise, one must even understand the Lineage the Green River Sect and the Heavenly Blade Sect.

Ye Jingcheng belonged to the latter group, and during this time, he had been learning about the situation of the Medicine King Valley in the Zhao Kingdom, the Heavenly Corpse Sect in the Chu Kingdom, and the Blood King Valley in the Wei Kingdom.

After all, once the Ye Family becomes Purple Mansion Lineage and continues to develop, they will inevitably have to deal with these forces sooner or later.

Once this matter is resolved, the Ye Family will open a restaurant and Spirit Beast shop in Taichang Market.

Firstly, it increases the Ye Family's profits; secondly, it lets other Lineage know how the Ye Family's Spirit Beasts develop.

Concealing one's Lineage is not necessarily just about hiding one's talents.

You can also showcase yourself, let them know how fast you're growing, and then establish a mutually beneficial relationship.

That was the time when the Ye Family experienced rapid growth.

At the same time, just to be on the safe side.

Ye Jingcheng also put away the Blood Soul Pearl. The Blood Soul Pearl could deceive Golden Core cultivators, but it might not be able to deceive Nascent Soul, since Nascent Soul Cultivators have too many tricks up their sleeves.

They can even deduce it, let alone right under their noses.

If Ye Jingcheng's guess is correct, there are at least four Nascent Soul appearing in the Taichang Mountain Range this time.

There could be even more, otherwise the Green River Sect wouldn't let this go.

They were only Taiyi Sect.

They've already killed a Golden Core cultivator; there's absolutely no reason for reconciliation.

As for his own cultivation level, Ye Jingcheng had already used the ancestral Great Turtle Aura-Hiding Art to control his cultivation at the early stage of the Purple Mansion.

At the same time, he used the Beast Communion to fill all the True Essence in his body into the True Essence of the Four-Colored Cloud Deer in advance.

When True Essence is abundant, it will automatically and continuously transform into his own True Essence, but this transformation process is enough to deceive people for a period of time.

Although there wouldn't be enough time, he felt it was sufficient.

After all, there's no need for fighting anymore.

Those Nascent Soul Nascent Soul wouldn't specifically check on him, and if he wasn't mistaken, Tianfu True Person must have burned another portion of his lifespan.

He must return to the Taichang Mountain Range to recuperate.

The Taichang Mountain Range are quite large.

Even a Golden True Person wouldn't be able to detect Ye Jingcheng's presence in the market from this distance.

According to Ye Xuecang, everything Tianfu True Person did was likely planned by him alone.

He would never tell anyone.

Because he wanted to monopolize Ye Jingcheng's spirit and the entire Ye Family's legacy.

When he becomes Ye Jingcheng, he will also worry that the Taiyi Sect will plunder him.

Because after possession, one's cultivation level will depend on the body.

Before breaking through to the Golden Core stage, Tianfu True Person could not reveal his true nature.

Another day passed, and beneath their feet, vast stretches of spiritual fields could be glimpsed.

These sacred fields are usually bustling with bountiful harvests at this time of year.

Today, everything has been harvested, and it seems that even a significant amount of soil from some of the spirit fields has been taken away.

Even at the ends of the earth, the Taichang Market can be seen gradually unfolding before everyone's eyes.

"My nephew arrived late, causing Uncle Yi's death. My nephew deserves to die a thousand deaths!"

"I come clad in white today, to beg the soul of my patriarch to return!"
