Soaring Cloud's Seven Heroes, Never Forgetting the Clan Even in Nine Deaths

The Golden-Light Malachite also has many golden Spirit Patterns, which become even more dazzling and splendid after being nurtured by Spiritual Qi energy.

It is winding and twisting, like stalactites hanging down, or like beautiful mountain peaks.

It was completely different from the python pattern on Stone Spirit's body.

The only thing they have in common is that these Spirit Patterns all have the ability to absorb Spiritual Qi energy.

Furthermore, the resulting vortex of Spiritual Qi energy is growing larger and larger.

Ye Jingcheng carefully stroked the stone's texture, first imbuing it with a considerable amount of Treasure Radiance.

Only then did they take out the materials for the first-tier Shi Fang one by one.

Like the grotto Malachite Stone Spirit Grotto-Heaven Stone Spirit is currently in its python pattern state.

It has not yet fully developed sentience; only after reaching the first level of Shi Fang will a true spiritual image be born.

It absorbs slowly, and Ye Jingcheng, watching from the side, was getting a little anxious.

So they simply went ahead and formed Blood Pact.

As his Essence Blood dripped down, Ye Jingcheng also developed a subtle connection with Peacock Stone.

He originally intended to convey the idea of devouring the Malachite Stone Spirit, and even to transmit the Spirit Canon to it.

However, it was quite obvious that the Malachite Stone Spirit couldn't understand his communication at all.

The speed remains extremely slow.

Compared to the absorption of the Grotto-Heaven Stone Spirit on the same day, it was much slower. Ye Jingcheng estimated that it would take almost a day to fully absorb it, and with the refinement and the birth of its intelligence, this period would be even longer.

Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng felt both longing and utter helplessness, and ultimately had to give up.

The Malachite Stone Spirit was left to absorb the energy.

"Cave Spirit, come here!" Ye Jingcheng summoned the Grotto-Heaven Stone Spirit.

"You stay here and watch over it. If it wakes up, teach it, just as the Peachwood taught you!" Ye Jingcheng instructed.

Although the Stone Spirit also needs to cultivate, the Peachwood Demon is currently in seclusion, attempting to break through to the peak of the second tier.

Since both the Grotto-Heaven Stone Spirit and the Malachite Stone Spirit are Stone Spirit, their communication is obviously much better.

Moreover, the Grotto-Heaven Stone Spirit doesn't have the cunning and scheming nature of the Peachwood Demon, so it won't lead you astray.

"Yes, Master!" The Grotto-Heaven Stone Spirit was also extremely excited at this moment.

It even paced back and forth nervously, after all, this was its first time bringing a new Stone Spirit.

Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng did not linger any longer, but went to the side of the Spirit Lake. The Jade-Scale Flood Dragon and the Roc Fish poked their heads out at the same time, happily thinking that Ye Jingcheng was going to feed them.

Both mouths were wide open, one bigger than the other.

It was as if those two weren't the ones who had recently devoured the Spirit Beast's flesh.

Ye Jingcheng naturally wouldn't continue to indulge the two beasts. He simply beckoned the five Moon Spirit Clam over. At this moment, the five Moon Spirit Clam were getting closer and closer to the third tier, and the starlight on their bodies was even more dazzling.

Ye Jingcheng first fed each of them a spirit pill, and then took out the two largest Water Spirit Pearl.

After more than a year of nurturing, this Water Spirit Pearl shone with a brilliant tricolor light. Although its Spiritual Qi content may not be as high as that of a third-grade spirit pill, the quality of the Water Spirit it contained was no less than that of a third-grade Water Attribute spirit pill.

For Chu Yanqing, who was in the early stage of the Purple Mansion, this was an extremely rare and miraculous elixir.

Moreover, it can neutralize many of the side effects of elixirs, allowing Chu Yanqing to break through to the next level more quickly.

After retrieving the elixir, Ye Jingcheng left the Grotto-Heaven.

Beyond the Grotto-Heaven lies the underground palace of Soaring Cloud Lake, which remains deserted and quiet, with no clansmen present.

He activated the Array and left Soaring Cloud Lake.

At this moment, Soaring Cloud Lake is now exclusively used for raising Star-Eating Fish and Black Ganoderma Fish. Black Ganoderma Fish are clearly easier to breed than Star-Eating Fish. More than a year has passed, and a considerable number of fry have been raised, swimming in groups among the Jade Lotus.

Moreover, these Black Ganoderma Fish also appear to be exceptionally intelligent!

Some even jumped up and bumped into the leaf stalks of the Jade Lotus.

The dewdrops in the center of the Jade Lotus dripped down, and then the lotus leaped up and caught them steadily, swallowing them with a series of crisp splashing sounds.

Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng couldn't help but smile slightly. He could already foresee how booming the Ye Family Restaurant's business would be in the future.

Ultimately, the most important aspect of Black Ganoderma Fish is its taste.

After watching the spirit fish for a while, Ye Jingcheng left Soaring Cloud Lake and saw the Body Tempering Mountain in the distance. The Body Tempering Mountain has now been improved and is now more complete. A staircase runs down the mountain, and every twenty steps there is a huge circular platform.

If a member of the Ye Family is practicing body tempering, they take twenty steps as a small step.

Furthermore, using a circular platform to confront the puppets was a significant step forward.

This allows for a more detailed quantification of Body Cultivator.

At this moment, Ye Jingcheng could see that there were still several clansmen climbing the Body Tempering Mountain.

Among the people here, Ye Jingcheng was familiar with several of the "Jing" generation, and the one in the lead was Ye Jingcheng's second brother, Ye Jingyong.

At this moment, Ye Jingyong had already Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, and his entire body was radiating a silver light, clearly Spirit Control the Silver Moon Python. Even under the suppression of the Body Tempering Array, he was able to fight against three second-tier wooden puppets without being at a disadvantage.

However, because he had already landed on the second-tier Heavenly Gang Body-Tempering Grand Formation, and his Spiritual Qi was somewhat insufficient, he eventually showed signs of weakness.

Upon seeing Ye Jingcheng appear, Ye Jingyong decisively landed.

"Master!"

"Second Brother has made great progress. It seems this Array won't hold him for long!" Ye Jingcheng said with a smile.

He wasn't lying. Even if Ye Jingyong had reached the Foundation Establishment later, he might surpass Ye Jingyi and Ye Jingyun and break through to the Foundation Establishment Late Stage before them.

"No, it's all thanks to the Lineage. If it weren't for this Array, my breakthrough might have been much slower!" Ye Jingyong couldn't help but laugh.

His smile remained as honest and simple as ever. Of course, Ye Jingcheng also knew that Ye Jingyong's honesty and simplicity were reserved only for a few members of the Ye Family.

Having been in charge of Taihang Marketplace for many years, Ye Jingyong has matured considerably.

"These are Ye Qinggang and Ye Qingyuan, who have recently joined the Inner Hall!" Ye Jingyong then introduced them to Ye Jingcheng.

Those who landed on the 40th level were Body Cultivator of the Jing generation, Ye Jingcheng familiar with. However, he knew less about the two younger ones, who looked to be only in their early thirties and belonged to the Qing generation.

He had clearly just passed the Lineage's Inner Hall's assessment.

Both of them were at the sixth level of Qi Refining, but because they were Body Cultivator, their muscles were clearly defined and their eyes were sharp.

Moreover, Ye Jingcheng could also see that the two of them had considerable talent in Body Cultivator.

This reminded him of the Profound Wasteland Tyrant Body Secret Canon he had obtained, which was a level-one Body Cultivator Cultivation Method. If his talent was suitable, he could indeed pass it on to the members of his Lineage.

Moreover, he now feels that although the Ye family's Lingyun Peak is developing well, it lacks distinctive features, and the various clansmen do not have obvious characteristics.

He had acquired many Cultivation Method in these few encounters, and in his view, it was time for the Ye Family to diversify its development.

"Patriarch!" The two Qing generation cultivators and the Jing generation Body Cultivator all bowed repeatedly.

"You all continue your cultivation!" Ye Jingcheng smiled slightly.

He also noticed that Ye Qinggang seemed to want to say something but hesitated.

Finally, the latter mustered up his courage:

"Patriarch, was this Array set up by a hidden elder of the Lineage...?"

"Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask!" Ye Jingyong glared at the latter.

His stern expression startled Ye Jingcheng.

But at this moment, he did not blame these people.

Because he had always been curious whether there were any cultivators behind his Lineage.

Especially after the Beast Communion.

That kind of thinking becomes increasingly uncontrollable.

"The size of Lineage can only be measured by sufficient strength, so make yourself stronger as soon as possible!" Ye Jingcheng commented, a rare occurrence for him.

He is just like Ye Haicheng Ye Xuecang in the past.

At this moment, he had a strange feeling.

Some also understand the reasons why the Lineage elders kept it a secret.

After all, some Lineage matters are indeed important, and even though a forbidden array has been set up and Heavenly Dao Oath has been made because of the Beast Communion, too much information cannot be revealed.

Moreover, once they are strong enough, they will naturally be able to know the extent of their Lineage's strength.

"Yes!" The group immediately clenched their fists and nodded, their eyes filled with light.

Ye Jingyong's gaze became even more stern.

However, the group wasn't angry; they knew Ye Jingyong was doing it for the Lineage's good.

After watching for a while, Ye Jingcheng headed towards the Lineage Council Hall.

Inside the main hall, Ye Xingqun and several elders of the Ye family were handling some matters. With the establishment of a business association with the Jia family, the Ye family's finances have greatly improved. After all, Yunjiaolu has opened a new beast valley, and various kinds of spirit beast meat are also being sold to the Zhao Kingdom.

With the profits from Taichang Market and Taihang Marketplace, the Ye Family has become a highly sought-after marriage partner for many other Lineage in recent years.

However, as the Lineage prospered, the number of spies infiltrating the Ye Family and the dangers of traveling outside also increased significantly.

We need to be more cautious in our actions.

Even marriage requires extra caution.

"Patriarch!" Ye Xingqun greeted Ye Jingcheng with joy upon his arrival.

"Uncle Xingqun, you've worked hard all these years!" Ye Jingcheng also cupped his hands in thanks.

"Patriarch, you flatter me. But this time, there are indeed a few things that may require your attention!" Ye Xingqun said with a distant look in his eyes, and the other Ye family elders understood and took their leave.

"Patriarch, first of all, it's about Qingshuang. Jing Teng has already arrived; he's on Soaring Cloud Peak. However, this time he's carrying a message from Ziyue, saying he wants to give Ye Qingshuang some special training before the sect's Ascension Ceremony!"

Ye Jingcheng wasn't too surprised to hear this. He had already sensed Ye Jingteng on Soaring Cloud Peak, and the other party had even given him a lot of sound transmission Spirit Talisman.

However, he had been busy refining pills and dealing with matters concerning Spirit Beast, which was why he hadn't come out of seclusion.

They ignored it.

Ye Qingshuang is an Ice Spirit Root cultivator. Although she has outstanding talent, she has only been on Soaring Cloud Peak for a little over two years, and her cultivation level is only at the fourth level of Qi Refining.

Although it far surpassed the others, even Ziyue Taiyi Sect felt that this speed was too slow.

Unable to achieve good results in the Ascension Ceremony.

"Qingshuang has been avoiding you all along, and she's been waiting for you!" Ye Xingqun continued.

"Well, let Qingshuang go for the next few days!" Ye Jingcheng nodded. Hearing Ye Xingqun say this, he felt that Ye Qingshuang had taken his words to heart.

Otherwise, they might already be at the Taiyi Sect by now.

As long as Ye Qingshuang remembers the Ye Family, that's enough.

"Master, the second thing is good news!"

"Over in the Insect Valley, they've already bred fully golden Spirit-Extinguishing Locust, and their combat power is considerable!"

"Moreover, Ye Jingzhong, who controls the Spirit-Extinguishing Locust Ye Jingzhong, has already gone into seclusion and may break through to the Foundation Establishment in the next few months!" Ye Xingqun said.

He also took a Jade Slip and handed it to Ye Jingcheng.

The contents of the Jade Slip were about the Spirit-Extinguishing Locust in the Ye Family's Insect Valley. These Spirit-Extinguishing Locust were all golden and somewhat similar to the Spirit-Extinguishing Locust controlled by Rogue Cultivator that Ye Jingcheng had seen before.

This method of breeding through natural selection is clearly an excellent approach for cultivating Spirit Insect.

Especially with the Advancement Pill refined by Ye Jingcheng.

Only then can one achieve such success.

"Excellent, the Lineage can continue its research in this area to improve upon the shortcomings!"

"By the way, Uncle Xingqun, you need to do more selection next. The Ye Family is going to select the Seven Heroes of Lingyun. These seven heroes will be composed of Body Cultivator, Sword Cultivator, insect cultivators, talisman cultivators, alchemy cultivators, weapon cultivators, and array cultivators."

"These seven people will be given priority training!"

"I've already selected the initial Cultivation Method!" Ye Jingcheng took out several Jade Slip.

Over the years, the Ye Family has acquired the Profound Wasteland Tyrant Body Secret Canon, the Sword Embryo Art of the Wan Family, the Mysterious Wood Sword Scripture, the Mystical Wood Sword Scripture Heavenly Jade Sword Scripture, and many Spirit Insect techniques.

These Cultivation Method are all top-notch.

Many members of the Ye Family's Hidden Peak have already switched to this cultivation method. For example, Ye Haicheng and Ye Haihe have switched to cultivating the Profound Wasteland Tyrant Body Secret Canon.

Ye Haisheng switched to cultivating the Heavenly Jade Sword Scripture.

However, these are, after all, older generation cultivators. They still have advantages in switching cultivation, but not many.

The Ye Family still needs to equip its younger members with the most advanced Cultivation Method.

Of course, the Cultivation Method he gave this time were all of the next lower level; he didn't give them the highest level directly.

These top-grade Earth and Profound ranks Cultivation Method will only be given to these clansmen after they have established their Foundation Establishment.

However, consciously cultivating such geniuses requires starting in advance.

This also highlights the importance of nurturing the Seven Heroes.

After all, the number of immortal seedlings emerging from each of the Ye Family's Ascension Ceremony has reached fifty or sixty, and the Ye Family members are now approaching the three hundred mark.

"Good, our Ye Family has finally achieved this!" Ye Xingqun nodded repeatedly, his face full of joy.

This policy had already been implemented by other Lineage long ago. The reason the Ye Family hadn't implemented it before was because there weren't many Ye Family.

Secondly, the Ye Family values Spirit Beast more.

Spirit Beast are the true roots of the Ye Family.

Now that the Ye Family has grown in number, it's entirely possible to do just that.

Moreover, the Ye Family's heritage is quite rich now.

Don't worry, you're just a step behind other cultivators in swordsmanship or Body Cultivator.

After discussing some details with Ye Xingqun, Ye Jingcheng also left the Council Hall.

He first headed towards a small courtyard on Soaring Cloud Peak.

What he found quite interesting was that this little courtyard was right next to his original little courtyard.

In the courtyard, Ye Qingshuang was also studying how to make talismans.

For most lightning and ice cultivators, since they cannot refine pills and do not possess the Five Phases, among the four arts of cultivation, the most suitable is talisman making.

Moreover, ice-attribute Spirit Talisman, wind-attribute Spirit Talisman, and Thunder Attribute Spirit Talisman are among the most popular types of Spirit Talisman in the Cultivation World.

"Master, please come in!" Although Ye Qingshuang is only twelve years old, she is already graceful and has the makings of a beauty.

"Qingshuang, have you settled in well at Soaring Cloud Peak these days?" Ye Jingcheng asked.

"Patriarch, Soaring Cloud Peak is Shuang'er's home, so Shuang'er is naturally used to it!" Ye Qingshuang said.

"Very good!" Ye Jingcheng clapped his hands in praise when he heard Ye Qingshuang say that.

Ye Qingshuang also put away the other ingredients and poured spiritual tea for Ye Jingcheng.

In her spiritual field, she also planted some spiritual plants, but they were all the simplest Spring Welcoming Tea.

However, even though the tea was poured, Ye Jingcheng did not drink it immediately, as he was already aware of Ye Qingshuang's intelligence.

"Qingshuang, you're aware of what's been happening lately, aren't you? You'll have better opportunities if you go to the sect, and the Lineage certainly won't stop you!"

"Patriarch, given the Lineage's kindness and the bond of blood, if I had a choice, I would naturally not want to go to that unfamiliar Taichang Mountain Range." Ye Qingshuang Qingshuang her head.

"Oh? What if I were to say that in the future, if it's possible, I might need your help for the Lineage, or even go against the sect's wishes?" Ye Jingcheng suddenly asked.

As soon as he spoke, he flicked his finger, and an Array was set up around them.

Clearly, what he said earlier was just polite talk; what he was really saying now was what Ye Jingcheng was saying.

Upon hearing this, Ye Qingshuang finally panicked a little.

She seemed somewhat confused as to why the Lineage and the sect would fall out.

"Qingshuang, as long as Lineage develops, it will inevitably affect the interests of the sect. This is why so many Golden Core and Purple Mansion Lineage Lineage, despite being extremely cautious, still experience frequent changes in power – it's because the sect is manipulating things behind the scenes!"

"Patriarch, if that's the case, Qingshuang will definitely send a message for the Lineage. However, if it really comes down to opposing the sect, she might not be able to do it. By then, Qingshuang would already be considered half a sect member!" Ye Qingshuang subtly hinted.

"Okay!" Only after hearing this did Ye Jingcheng truly feel relieved.

If Ye Qingshuang were just spouting nonsense, he naturally wouldn't believe her, and she wouldn't pass the sect's test either. On the contrary, this answer was the sect's way of survival, and also a reason why the Lineage could allow her to enter the sect.

"I hope you remember what I said today. From now on, the Lineage will help you Foundation Establishment your Purple Mansion. In addition, we will find enough connections for you in the Taiyi Sect. You just need to remember the good things the Lineage has done for you!" Ye Jingcheng said.

Although Taiyi Sect now has Ye Jingteng is too self-centered, too idealistic, and easily manipulated. For Ye Jingcheng, supporting his Purple Mansion is the limit.

However, Ye Qingshuang is clever and quick-witted. If possible, supporting her to become a high-ranking member of the Taiyi Sect would be beneficial to the Ye Family.

"Please rest assured, Qingshuang, although I am a woman, I will remember everything I have learned, everything I have seen, and everything I have felt. I will never forget my clan, even if it means dying nine times!" Ye Qingshuang said solemnly.

Upon hearing this, Ye Jingcheng nodded repeatedly.

This kind of Ye Qingshuang is the truly suitable leader of the Taiyi Sect within the Ye Family.
