Changes, Double Happiness

The insect eggs, entangled in the black mist nightmare, appeared noticeably brighter under the Treasure Radiance.

The black mist even seemed much more vivid.

When Ye Jingcheng looked closely, the number of phantom images and spirits that appeared increased, and it was as if there really was a nightmare demon roaring and howling.

Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng spared no effort, releasing two full pages of Treasure Radiance.

He only stopped when the spirit egg seemed to have absorbed enough nutrients to overflow.

Seeing that the spirit egg had become more viable, Ye Jingcheng took out the culture medium.

This special culture medium is used by the Ye Family to cultivate certain Spirit Insects. Ye Jingcheng had used it before when cultivating the Five Poison Bees, and he had saved some of it. Now it's perfect to give it all to the Dream-Devouring Insects.

Even so, he still controlled the amount of nutrient solution each time.

This Dream-Devouring Insect was clearly underdeveloped inside the egg. Even if it were to recover, it would only do so slowly. Absorbing too much nutrient solution could even cause the egg to burst and die.

After all, his aura is currently only at the first level.

Instead of a second-tier Spirit Insect.

Once the Dream-Devouring Insects were soaked in the spiritual liquid, a small vortex even appeared, clearly indicating that the insect eggs were reacting on their own and beginning to absorb spiritual energy again.

This allowed Ye Jingcheng to breathe a sigh of relief.

Although he knew that Treasure Radiance would definitely be effective, he was still somewhat worried.

Based on the Ye Family's experience, such a spirit egg, if it lacks Treasure Radiance, has a high probability of not hatching.

Before long, the special Spirit Insect culture medium began to become somewhat clear, and the vortex of the spirit egg had disappeared.

Ye Jingcheng knew that the insect eggs had absorbed the maximum amount, which was about what he had expected, since the spiritual liquid becoming clear was the best proof.

He then removed the insect eggs and forced out a drop of Essence Blood.

Ye Jingcheng naturally wanted to form a contract with these Dream-Devouring Insects as soon as possible.

Once the Soul Pact was established and Ye Jingcheng could feel the Spirit Insect's vitality gradually recovering and even beginning to absorb the Spiritual Qi from the outside world, he felt more at ease.

After hesitating for a moment, Ye Jingcheng directly set up Array, entered the Grotto-Heaven, and set up a small insect chamber next to the Spirit Eye Spring. He then placed the insect eggs inside, very close to the golden Malachite Stone Spirit.

Peacock Stone is now also absorbing Spiritual Qi.

Unlike Spirit Insects that only need to hatch, Stone Spirits also need to develop sentience.

Ye Jingcheng estimated that he needed to gather Shi Fang materials as soon as possible.

He also reviewed the future development.

Since the five Spirit Beasts are unlikely to advance in the short term, his most important task right now is to improve the Wood Demon Stone Spirit and the Dream-Devouring Insect.

Secondly, there is the matter of one's own cultivation level and the practice of the five Secret Method.

The thought of cultivating the five Secret Method, breaking through to the Purple Mansion, and nurturing the Spirit Insects Wood Demons, and Stone Spirits...

Ye Jingcheng also felt that the road ahead was long and he still needed to stay true to himself and work hard.

He stepped down from the spirit field and looked towards the Stone Spirit in the distance, where he saw that the Stone Spirit was still cultivating the Spirit Canon.

His avatar, now covered in crisscrossing python patterns, has undergone several wondrous changes.

However, it will obviously take some time before it is truly perfected.

"Master, the Stone Spirit should still need a few more months!" the Peachwood Demon explained to Ye Jingcheng from the side.

For the Wood Demon at this moment, life without the Stone Spirit is not easy.

Even without the control of the Stone Spirit, the Grotto-Heaven still receives spiritual rain, but it no longer gathers only near the Spirit Eye Spring.

Instead, the focus was placed on the area near the mountainside, making the Golden Light Bamboo growing there even more radiant.

"You need to work harder too. Don't let the time come when you can refine Advancement Pills and you still haven't broken through!" Ye Jingcheng also scolded Peachwood.

Now, within his Grotto-Heaven, the five five-elemental Spirit Beasts have all begun to study diligently.

"Master, Peachwood will work hard immediately, and this time, Peachwood is confident that it can produce more than eight spirit peaches!" Peachwood Demon heard that the Advancement Pill was about to be produced.

He immediately lay face down on the ground, prostrating himself completely.

And they kowtowed repeatedly.

However, because it was a spirit image, it shattered upon impact with the solid ground.

It looked as if the skull was shattered, which was quite bizarre.

"Alright, less talk, more action!" Ye Jingcheng waved his hand, signaling the Peachwood Demon to leave as soon as possible.

Although he looked disgusted, he was secretly delighted. The Spirit Peach now extended his lifespan by twenty years, and if he could have eight of them, it would be a considerable fortune.

Ye Jingcheng had previously attended the Purple Mansion Trade Fair and the Azure Spirit Market night market, where he actually found quite a few good items.

Unfortunately, he couldn't produce any valuable treasures.

That's why I can't get it.

Once he has the Spirit Peach, he won't be in such a passive position anymore.

Moreover, although such longevity spirit medicine are rare in the world, they are not impossible to find, so they naturally wouldn't cause too much of a stir.

After all, it only extends lifespan by twenty years.

After looking at the Stone Spirit, Ye Jingcheng then looked at the Sunflower Wood Demon.

The Sunflower Wood Demon's intelligence has been increasing day by day during this period, after all, it has consumed quite a few elixirs.

The human face that had appeared on the Wood Demon's body was now exceptionally clear, and it even bore a resemblance to Ye Jingcheng.

However, Ye Jingcheng felt something was off, so he changed the face of the Sunflower Wood Demon to that of a pretty female cultivator, which made her look much better.

Ye Jingcheng also infused the Sunflower Wood Demon with some Treasure Radiance, then left the Grotto-Heaven. After spending another day in Taihang Marketplace, Ye Jingcheng piloted his Spirit Boat towards Soaring Cloud Peak.

We returned to Soaring Cloud Peak.

Ye Jingcheng's life also began to become monotonous, spending his days refining pills, taming beasts, and cultivating the Fire Spirit Secret Art.

And a long-lost peace began to return.

Summer has passed and spring has arrived; eight months have gone by in the blink of an eye.

The area inside Ye Jingcheng's Grotto-Heaven has changed drastically.

The lake has become much larger, and Jade Lotus have been planted on it. Red-Node Fish and Star-Eating Fish swim in two separate areas, frolicking and playing happily.

In the lake where the Red-Node Fish, Moon Spirit Clam constantly rise to the surface, like stars falling and rising again.

Occasionally, the enormous shadow of the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon would also swim and intersect within it. After a certain period of time, it would open its mouth wide, swallow it whole, and spit out several bubbles.

Meanwhile, the Roc Fish was not lagging behind at all.

In the spirit medicine field, all kinds of spirit medicine were growing extremely lushly, radiating spiritual light, and full of vitality.

Of course, the largest is the Peachwood Demon itself, which is already three or four zhang tall, with a dense canopy covered with countless peach blossoms, creating a spectacular scene of falling petals.

In the distance, corresponding to this, is a lush Golden Light Bamboo, which is even taller than the Peachwood trees.

Furthermore, after more than half a year of cultivation by Ye Jingcheng, the plant now has many more leaves than before, and the branches of the Golden Light Bamboo have also become a bit thicker.

At that very moment, the boy who was the Stone Spirit was incredibly excited.

It had just devoured a second-tier defensive magic Law Artifact, and now its entire body was filled with even more spiritual light.

Furthermore, the python patterns on its body seemed to have become even deeper.

It wanted to call out to its master, to share the joy of its initial success in mastering the Spirit Canon classics.

But after looking around the Grotto-Heaven, he finally saw that familiar figure in the pavilion on the mountain peak.

Inside the pavilion, which was now covered by Array, Ye Jingcheng's alchemy had reached its most crucial moment.

"Chirp!" came a low cry from the four-tailed Crimson Flame Fox.

Instantly, the four tails that stretched out behind it also burst into even more intense flames, igniting the Heavenly Ox Azure-Red Furnace.

The Pill Furnace alternated between green and red.

The dense, spiritual shadows reflected the image of a longhorn beetle raising its head and bellowing, its imposing presence overwhelming.

At that moment, a ray of spiritual light appeared Pill Furnace.

Instantly, a fragrant aroma filled the air, Ye Jingcheng's spirits lifted, his hand movements becoming even faster.

The furnace lid flew off, revealing a large mass of purple Purple Palace Jade Liquid swaying inside.

A Pill Fragrance wafted out, filling his nostrils and instantly dispelling his fatigue.

"Great, it can be used as two balls!" Ye Jingcheng's eyes were full of joy.

They also took out two jade bottles and filled them with two clumps of Purple Palace Jade Liquid.

They then affixed Spirit Talisman and cleaned the Pill Furnace at the same time.

"Now I can be considered to have stabilized in the ranks of a third-tier high-grade Alchemist!" Ye Jingcheng murmured to himself.

"Lili!" The Crimson Flame Fox beside him nodded.

He clearly agreed with Ye Jingcheng's words.

Its calls were also filled with pride.

Ye Jingcheng gently stroked the Crimson Flame Fox's head.

Also give the Crimson Flame Fox two Mystic Flame Pills.

Over the past eight months, Ye Jingcheng has refined almost all the third-tier spirit medicine, producing more than a dozen bottles of third-tier spiritual pills.

His success rate in producing third-tier spirit pills has now reached over 60%, approaching 70%.

That's why he considered himself to have stable, high-grade third-tier alchemy skills.

The Crimson Flame Fox obediently swallowed it, then rubbed against Ye Jingcheng's palm until it sensed the Treasure Radiance appearing, at which point it stopped rubbing.

However, Ye Jingcheng also sensed that with the consumption of the Mystic Flame Pill, the Crimson Flame Fox's demonic energy had improved considerably, and it was getting closer and closer to the late stage of the third rank.

Ye Jingcheng put down the Crimson Flame Fox, letting it digest its food quietly, and then looked at the other Spirit Beasts and creatures within the Grotto-Heaven!

Of course, his first target was Stone Spirit.

At this moment, Stone Spirit had refined the Spirit Canon, and his aura was even more profound. Ye Jingcheng also sensed that the other party had become more mysterious.

Within the Grotto-Heaven, the movement of the spirit shadow was faster than anything else.

Keep in mind that he is currently at the mid-stage of the Purple Mansion, not far from the Purple Mansion late stage.

"Master, I have already consumed a second-tier high-grade defensive magic Law Artifact!" Stone Spirit said excitedly.

"Good, keep up the good work!" Ye Jingcheng nodded in satisfaction. He felt that Stone Spirit's aura was approaching the late stage of the second tier, and he believed that it wouldn't be long before he reached the late stage of the second tier, and then the peak of the second tier.

Now that we're talking about it, if Stone Spirit doesn't advance in his cultivation level, his current Grotto-Heaven won't be big enough.

After looking at the Stone Spirit, Ye Jingcheng looked at a nearby insect chamber.

There crawled a Spirit Insect that resembled both a mosquito and a cicada. It had two jet-black wings, a thin body, and a nightmarish Spirit Patterns on its abdomen.

Its mouth is like the mouthparts of a mosquito.

These are the hatched Dream-Devouring Insect.

The insect's current aura is clearly that of a late-stage first-order cultivator, equivalent to the eighth level of Qi Refining.

This cultivation level isn't high, but it's not low either, considering it's just a newly hatched Spirit Insect.

Ye Jingcheng summoned the Dream-Devouring Insect into his palm, and then took out the remnant soul of a first-tier Demon Beast.

Let the Dream-Devouring Insect consume it.

And Dream-Devouring Insect absorbed the remnant soul with a single suck from its mouthparts.

Ye Jingcheng then controlled it to release the dream.

A moment later, it burst forth with a cloud of black mist, enveloping Ye Jingcheng.

Ye Jingcheng felt as if he had transformed into a small beast, roaming through the jungle.

This mysterious and strange feeling was truly like a dream, making him feel as if he were actually there.

The black mist didn't last long, and the dream naturally dissipated in the blink of an eye.

Ye Jingcheng also keenly sensed that his divine Divine Soul had indeed strengthened slightly.

Although very slight, it is indeed an increase!

Moreover, this Dream-Devouring Insect can enhance not only Ye Jingcheng, but also everyone in the Ye Family.

This dreamlike mist is truly magical.

However, after exhaling the black mist, the Dream-Devouring Insect was clearly exhausted, buzzing as it did so.

He appeared somewhat weak, so Ye Jingcheng channeled his Treasure Radiance into him.

This was also the first time Ye Jingcheng had been unable to restore the spiritual power of the Spirit Insect.

This made Ye Jingcheng hesitate, as the special spiritual power of this Dream-Devouring Insect was clearly extraordinary.

Ye Jingcheng studied it for a while, but when he couldn't figure it out, he stopped thinking about it.

He glanced at the Malachite Stone Spirit and the Sunflower Spirit Wood Demon beside him, but then sighed.

He hadn't gathered enough Shi Fang and timber for either of them.

Finally, he looked at the White-Brow Green Wolf that had completed its advancement in the distance.

At this moment, the White-Brow Green Wolf had clearly reached the late stage of the second tier, its size had become larger, and the white stripes on its body had become more numerous.

When Ye Jingcheng looked over, the White-Brow Green Wolf was overjoyed.

Even its tail wasn't so stiff anymore; it was waving quite gracefully.

It came running, its speed increasing, and it seemed to be walking on the wind, not touching the ground, but stirring up one vortex after another.

These wind rings may not seem like much at first glance.

But Ye Jingcheng noticed that these vortexes seemed to be slowly converging.

If you run far enough, these rippling vortexes could probably stir up a storm.

"This wind attribute talent is truly terrifying!" Ye Jingcheng's face lit up with joy.

This blue wolf has only advanced once so far. Once it advances again, it will be a perfect match, whether as a mount or charging into battle alongside the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon.

"Awooo!" It roared, seemingly because Ye Jingcheng had stopped it from continuing its display.

Then its white eyebrows suddenly turned into white eyebrows and eyes.

As soon as the eyebrows and eyes opened, a ripple of white moonlight appeared in the air.

The ripples were beautiful, but they startled Ye Jingcheng.

These white moon ripples are not real ripples, but rather the beginnings of a spatial rift.

Those White Brow are clearly extraordinary.

However, it seems that because the White-Brow Green Wolf's cultivation level is still low, it cannot create a complete crack.

If the White-Brow Green Wolf succeeds, the crack will appear beside the cultivator's body.

Even a third-tier Body Cultivator's physical body probably couldn't withstand that.

"Not bad!" Ye Jingcheng took out second-tier Azure Wind Pills and gave them to the White-Brow Green Wolf.

It now seems that if this White-Brow Green Wolf is trained well in the future, it will be a formidable fighting force.

At this moment, Ye Jingcheng began to wonder whether the White-Brow Green Wolf was a descendant of the Azure Wind Wolf King or a descendant of the Wolf Valley Demon Emperor.

Of course, Ye Jingcheng only thought about it for a moment before his thoughts were pulled back.

Both the Roc Fish and the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon had enormous mouths and were calling out to him incessantly.

However, he couldn't refuse at this moment, because according to his perception, the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon could begin to break through to the late stage of the third tier.

And the Roc Fish can begin to attempt to break through to the third tier!

It can be said that countless joyous occasions have arrived!
