Xuandao's Gift, an Auspicious Sign Appears

Above Soaring Cloud Peak, crimson clouds once again covered the sky, even outlining beautiful "double happiness" characters, filling the entire sky and overshadowing the rising sun.

The last time Soaring Cloud Peak was shrouded in such rosy clouds was when Ye Haicheng held the Purple Mansion Ceremony.

Besides the rosy clouds, there were also many red birds flying in flocks below.

Although it lacks the ethereal beauty of the white crane, the Red Glow Bird is clearly more suitable for this moment.

Their bodies were ablaze with fire as they circled and soared in the sky, their long cries echoing through the mountains like joyful music.

There were already quite a few cultivators waiting at the foot of the mountain, where there were rows of pavilions.

Inside the pavilion, there were many spiritual fruits and teas, and the cultivators who had arrived earlier were resting here.

Of course, most of the cultivators who have arrived now are from Foundation Establishment or below. The spiritual fruits and tea prepared by the Ye Family are not ordinary, so even though most cultivators would restrain themselves, they still couldn't help but eat, drink and chat in the pavilion.

Of course, while chatting, they also praised the Ye Family's elixirs and magical Law Artifacts, as well as the Ye Family 'Ye Family restaurants and Spirit Beasts.

Naturally, the Ye Family was involved in these events. Ceremony of any Lineage or power has two purposes: one is to enhance prestige and reputation, and the other is to consolidate Lineage's power and ensure its long-term development.

As for accumulating wealth and accepting gifts, that's the Lower Vehicle form of gain!

Just then, as streaks of spiritual light appeared in the distance, everyone looked towards the void.

Ten Spirit Boats appeared in the distance.

They traveled side by side. Although some of the Spirit Boats only had a first-order speed, they still maintained an orderly formation by deliberately slowing down.

Furthermore, each Spirit Boat was expanded to its maximum size, making the scene even more spectacular.

At the same time, as the Ye Family cultivators, who were already prepared, patted their Spirit Beast pouches, ten more firebirds flew out and landed in front of the Spirit Boat.

A crimson chain of fire landed between the Fire-Swallowing Sparrow's claws and the Spirit Boat.

Everyone got a glimpse of the spirit bird pulling the boat!

Although it wasn't as glamorous as a spirit phoenix pulling a carriage, this level of grandeur was still an eye-opener for many Lineage, especially for a Purple Mansion Lineage.

Everyone became even more envious of the Ye Family's Spirit Beast business.

A clever mouse carrying a tray, a white fox leading the way, a red bird dancing among auspicious clouds, and a firebird pulling a cart.

These scenes deeply shocked them.

Although they also raised some Spirit Beasts, it was almost impossible for them to train them to be like the Ye Family.

After all, the greatest role of Spirit Beasts is to assist in combat and enhance the combat power of cultivators.

They rarely study this kind of opportunistic approach, and even if they see the potential profits, they won't research it in that direction, but they can buy it.

After all, every Lineage has its ceremonies on a regular basis.

In their view, it was an extremely suitable thing to enhance the prestige of their own ceremony and at the same time improve relations with the Ye Family.

"The auspicious time has arrived, play the music, and begin the ceremony!" Atop the mountain peak, the sound of drums resounded, accompanied by the melody of a zither.

The spirit foxes were still dancing to the sounds of the ritual and spirit music.

The male cultivators were alright, but many of the female cultivators had their eyes shining.

Three spirit sails also appeared on the Spirit Boat.

One sail is the symbol of the Taiyi Sect's affiliated sects, while the other two sails represent the Ye Family and Azure Cloud Nunnery.

Ye Jingcheng, carrying a red flower, landed among the three sails.

His eyes were filled with joy.

When the Spirit Boat arrived at the mountain gate, it was transferred to a sedan chair carried by eight people.

Ye Jingcheng even had his Lineage release several Golden-Scaled Beasts to follow him.

Nowadays, the Golden-Scaled Beasts of the Ye Family are all being cultivated to an extremely high standard. His Golden-Scaled Beast is now at the third tier and is becoming more and more like Qilin, so it is naturally not suitable to take it out.

However, the Ye Family had already taken several cubs from Earth Dragon Valley to raise, and the quality of their raising was not bad, although they had not yet reached the second tier.

"Esteemed seniors and fellow Daoists, today is my wedding day. I would like to express my gratitude for your presence and for the support of the sect!"

"Please enjoy the food and drink today. Of course, if anyone finds me agreeable, I will be giving a sermon at the Ye Family Square after the wedding banquet tomorrow!"

Ye Jingcheng began to speak.

This statement, in effect, meant that Ye Jingcheng's wedding banquet and the Purple Mansion ceremony were held together.

This is why there are still many Rogue Cultivators on this mountain.

For those Rogue Cultivators, wedding banquets and ceremonies are actually not important, since they don't need to curry favor with anyone.

However, once there are Purple Mansion Ceremony or Golden Core Ceremony, these Rogue Cultivators will flock to them.

This is because it is a rare opportunity for these Lineage and sects to preach.

It is said that this kind of preaching will increase the fortune of a monk.

Although the concept of destiny is extremely illusory, it is almost universally believed in by cultivators who seek Seeking Immortal and enlightenment.

Otherwise, why would Heavenly Dao Oath truly have consequences?

Therefore, whenever there is a ceremony, every cultivator will give a sermon, even Foundation Establishment cultivators are no exception.

Although Ye Jingcheng was not very old, in their eyes he was a spiritual being, a genius alchemist, and Purple Mansion Alchemist in his early seventies. Naturally, they were more interested in Ye Jingcheng's sermons.

Ye Jingcheng led the bridal sedan chair up the mountain.

Ye Qingyan also landed at the mountain gate and began to cheer:

"Wei Dazhong of the Cloud Lake Wei Family congratulates Master Qianchen on his joyous occasion and hereby presents a pair of second-tier Dragon-Patterned Carp!"

At this point, it's time for the various Lineage to present their gifts.

The Wei Family was ranked first and even presented Dragon-Patterned Carp as a gift.

Although this second-tier Dragon-Patterned Carp is not strong in combat, it is very effective in replenishing Qi and Blood, and it is also extremely beneficial for conceiving offspring.

It can be said that the Wei Family put a great deal of effort into presenting their gift.

This surprised the cultivators, since the Green River Sect had caused Taiyi Sect, with the Wei Family suffering the most severe losses, as all the supporting cultivators were wiped out.

Only two Foundation Establishment cultivators remained, struggling to hold on.

"The Pine Ridge Zhu Family congratulates Venerable Qianchen on his joyous occasion and hereby presents a piece of second-grade Xuanling soft jade!"

"Xu An of Purple Glow Mountain congratulates Qianchen on his joyous occasion and presents him with a second-tier Heavenly Rainbow Mushroom!"

As the cheers began, Foundation Establishment Lineage and Foundation Establishment Rogue Cultivators presented their gifts.

Although Qi Refining cultivators also offered gifts, they merely recorded them in a register without offering any applause.

This is also a customary rule for various ceremonies.

After all, there are simply too many Qi Rogue Cultivators and Qi Refining cultivators.

Calling them out one by one would be too complicated and chaotic.

Many people bring only random gifts when offering them. Some Rogue Cultivators even come here to attend the banquet because there are many cultivators around. Afterwards, they hold a small Rogue Cultivators on a nearby mountain peak. This way, they can be both safe and sell their treasures.

They can also enjoy the spiritual food and fruits of the powerful Lineage.

Some even bring their younger family members to see what it's like.

If a gift from a Qi Refining cultivator were to be read aloud, both the guest and the host might find it difficult to save face.

After the Foundation Establishment Lineage finished presenting their gifts, it was time for the Purple Mansion Lineage. This time, all the Purple Mansion Lineage in Taichang, except for the Kong Family, were present.

However, only three Lineage from the Purple Mansion clan came; it wasn't that the other Lineage didn't come.

Instead, two have completely disappeared in this upheaval.

The remaining Kong Family also had a long-standing feud with the Ye Family.

Needless to say, Taiqing Commandery had already been ceded to the Green River Sect. Ye Jingcheng even suspected that Taiqing Commandery had been ceded to the Qinghe Sect.

The Green River Sect's rebellion was ostensibly an attack on the Taiyi Sect in the Taichang Mountain Range.

But in reality, it was a purge of the entire Lineage.

Among them, the Guo Family and Xin families of the Purple Mansion Lineage have completely disappeared.

Only a few Foundation Establishment cultivators remained, and they fled to other cultivation kingdoms.

As Purple Mansion Lineage, it's impossible for them not to have enemies. These enemies won't usually cause trouble, but if a major upheaval occurs, they might be killed not by their current enemies, but by their past enemies.

The Kong Family, Zhang Family, and Jin Families also suffered heavy losses. It is said that their Mountainbreaker. Fortunately, at the critical moment, the True Lord intervened, allowing the three families to preserve their foundations, but their businesses were severely damaged. This is also the best opportunity for Ye Jingcheng to develop his Lineage.

"Tai'an Li Family of Master Tai'an congratulates Qianchen on his joyous occasion and presents him with two second-grade superior Qingyun Pills!" With the appearance of the Purple Mansion Lineage, this time it was Ye Jingyong who cheered.

Ye Jingcheng then stepped forward to greet his fellow travelers.

These are all Purple Mansion cultivators from the Yan Kingdom. Ye Jingcheng has a high chance of meeting and interacting with them in the future. Moreover, the higher the cultivators are, the more familiar they are with each other. Getting to know more of them will make it easier to participate in exchange meetings in the future.

"Sanyuan Master Cloud Valley Zheng Family congratulates Master Qianchen on his joyous occasion and hereby presents a low-grade third-tier spirit medicine herb, Xuanhun Grass!"

Ye Jingcheng stepped forward again and invited the monk into the main hall halfway up the mountain.

Finally, after the three major Purple Mansion Lineage had finished giving their gifts, it was time for the Golden Core Lineage, and the first one was the Yongan Zhang Family.

This is also the Lineage that Ye Jingcheng cares about the most.

"Master Yongan Zhang Family wishes Master Qianchen great joy and hereby presents him with a mid-grade third-tier Golden Sand Insect Crystal!"

As soon as these words were spoken, another cloud of light rose in space.

This time, the rosy clouds gathered in the sky and formed a spiritual rain that spread downwards.

This spiritual rain is no ordinary rain; it is released by spiritual water. Once it falls into a cultivator's body, it can be quickly absorbed. It is a great blessing and an auspicious sign of spiritual light!

This made Zhang Quanyu even more delighted, and he followed Ye Jingcheng up to the pavilion halfway up the mountain.

After all, being able to receive auspicious omens naturally signifies his noble status.

As Zhang Quanyu entered the main hall, Golden Jade Hall followed.

He presented the gifts with a broad smile, as if he had no prior conflict with the Ye Family.

It was still Jin Golden Jade Hall, the same person who traded spirit medicine with Ye Jingcheng.

"Master Jin Jiayutang of Hetian congratulates Master Qianchen on his joyous occasion and presents him with a third-tier ancient insect flower!"

"Congratulations on your breakthrough, Brother Jin!" Ye Jingcheng repeatedly cupped his hands in greeting to the Golden Jade Hall.

His face was beaming with smiles, showing no sign of any prior conflict.

"Brother Ye's talent is truly unparalleled in my life!" Golden Jade Hall waved his hand and spoke again.

Ye Jingcheng smiled and invited him to the mountainside.

At the same time, another auspicious cloud appeared in the sky, bringing down auspicious rain and blessing the region.

With all the major Lineage and forces moving forward, only the cultivators of the Taiyi Sect remained.

The first to arrive were Ye Jingteng and other Taiyi Sect Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Taiyi Sect.

Although they are at the Foundation Establishment, they represent the Taiyi Sect after all, so they are ranked after the Venerable One.

If other Lineage are considered fellow Daoists, then the Ye Family and the Taiyi Sect are more like ruler and subject.

These Foundation Establishment are now offering their congratulatory gifts, and the other Purple Mansion Lineage and forces can't say anything about it.

Once the Foundation Establishment is completed, one will become a superior being of the Taiyi realm.

"Taihao Master the Taiyi Sect's Illusion Peak bestows a third-tier Spirit Boat upon Master Qianchen!" Ye Jingcheng wasn't particularly happy to hear about the Spirit Boat.

From this day forward, he can no longer dodge or weave excuses if there are time constraints in the future.

A third-tier Spirit Boat is several times faster than a second-tier Spirit Boat.

"The Illusion Peak of the Taiyi Sect, and Venerable Qianchen, hereby bestow upon you a third-tier Array -Solidifying Array Plate!" Next was Liu Huan.

The following masters were all people Ye Jingcheng was quite familiar with, such as Qian He of Dharma Peak, Master Luoyuan of Sword Peak, and Mingyuan of Purple Peak.

It can be said that, apart from Martial Peak, all the cultivators from the five peaks have sent their masters.

Each appearance of a superior being brings an even greater layer of spiritual rain, greatly benefiting many cultivators.

Some cultivators have secretly calculated that even a small spiritual rain could cost thousands of Spirit Stones!

A larger amount of spirit rain like this would cost at least five or six thousand Spirit Stones!

At this moment, some people began to hope that True Person might appear.

With the appearance of True Person, how will the Ye Family receive auspicious omens?

After all, if the auspicious signs of True Person cannot surpass the divine rain of a superior being, then that would be an act of offending the True Person.

At that moment, Master Tianzhen also stepped forward.

He took out two Storage Bags.

Ye Jingyong was taken aback for a moment, but then he cheered:

"Master Huanfeng Tianzhen wishes Master Qianchen great joy and hereby presents him with a mid-grade third-tier Xuanhan Sword magic weapon."

"Illusion Peak Tianfu True Person Qianchen wishes you great joy and hereby presents you with a third-tier Purple Jade Fruit!"

These words caused an uproar in the audience.

They could think of a third-tier Law Treasure, but the Purple Jade Fruit given by Tianfu True Person was something none of them had expected.

Even the other masters are like this.

The Purple Jade Fruit can be used to refine Purple Palace Jade Liquid, and Ye Jingcheng is also exceptionally skilled in alchemy. Doesn't this mean that the Ye Family is about to produce a second Purple Mansion?

Everyone couldn't help but look towards the group of cultivators from the Ye Family.

They are considering who will be the next to break through to the Purple Mansion realm.

At this moment, Ye Jingteng was the most excited.

In his opinion, the Ye Family was the most suitable family for him!

If it weren't for the fact that it was Ye Jingcheng's wedding, he would have gone up to discuss it with Ye Jingcheng.

At that moment, Ye Jingcheng suddenly knelt down on one knee!

This kneeling was not to the Master Tianzhen, but to the Tianfu True Person!

No one will laugh at this scene; only solemn respect will be shown.

Respect for the Taiyi Sect, respect for Ye Jingcheng!

At the same time, a heavy rain of spirits fell from the sky.

Then, even more Spiritual Qi and abundant spiritual clouds appeared in the distant sky.

The spiritual cloud grew smaller, and the rain that fell was sparse, only about a hundred drops, not even worthy of being called spiritual rain. But the next moment, some people guessed and rushed to catch it.

"This is diluted second-tier spiritual water!" This sight drove the cultivators even more mad!

However, everyone thought that this was a matter of great importance to Tianfu True Person, so it was indeed necessary to do so.

Just when everyone thought that the Venerable One had reached his limit, they saw the Xuandao True Person, dressed in a green robe, floating lightly in from afar.

"Illusion Peak Xuandao True Person, wishing Venerable Qianchen Dust great joy, hereby bestows upon you a set of mid-grade third-tier Spirit Gathering Formation!" With these words...

Ye Jingcheng couldn't help but feel a little pleased.

Spirit Gathering Formation set naturally refers to a set that upgrades the Spirit Vein to a mid-grade third rank.

This includes Spirit Gathering Formation, spirit-gathering Spirit Stones, and a sufficient amount of high-grade Spirit Stones.

This gift is definitely worth hundreds of thousands of Spirit Stones.

This scene puzzled Ye Jingcheng greatly.

But he also knew that at this moment, Illusion Peak might be extending an olive branch to him.

Previously, Illusion Peak needed the Ye Family to provide revenue; now, Illusion Peak needs them even more!

The stronger the Ye Family is, the greater the benefits for Illusion Peak!

Of course, this is on the premise that Xuandao True Person believes Ye Jingcheng is under his control.

"Xuandao, this way please!" Ye Jingcheng bowed slightly, gesturing an invitation to Xuandao True Person.

The latter nodded, but also glanced at the sky out of the corner of his eye.

Once again, a second-tier spirit rain of the exact same quality as before appeared.

Exactly the same, not a bit more.

Just right.

Apart from Xuandao True Person, no other True Person came. Ye Jingcheng was not disappointed; on the contrary, he felt more at ease.

From this perspective, the matter of Tianfu True Person can be considered completely hidden.

Ye Jingcheng invited Xuandao True Person to the hall halfway up the mountain.

The next part of the wedding ceremony, the bowing ceremony, began.

This time, Ye Jingcheng also invited the Daoist robes of Xuandao True Person and Tianfu True Person to witness the event.

When toasting the elders, in addition to the Ye Family and the Clan Elder Azure Cloud Nunnery, there was also Xuandao True Person!

Xuandao True Person was clearly very satisfied with this.

After the ceremony, there will be various banquets.

Ye Jingcheng clapped his hands, and immediately several cultivators began to serve spiritual food one by one.

The fact that the True Person and the Venerables of Taiyi Peak sat together made the Venerables feel somewhat reserved, but they also knew that it would be inappropriate to Xuandao True Person sitting alone!

What they didn't expect was that the spiritual feast prepared by the Ye Family consisted of a lion head banquet, a firefly banquet, and Golden Lizard banquet.

Aside from the Green Wind Wolf Banquet, it almost gathered all the major spiritual banquets of the surrounding Taihang Demon Race.

The spiritual dishes were all second-tier, and the sect's table was even a top-grade second-tier spiritual dish!
