Beast Families: I Have an Illustrated Book of All Souls

Chapter 1524 Opening the East Gate Wide (Please Subscribe)

"Everyone, what do you think of Penglai?" Ye Qingnian put away all the storage bags, then cleared his throat and spoke.

Upon hearing this, everyone was naturally filled with righteous indignation.

After all, they were all masters of various regions in the Eastern Region, with tens of thousands of disciples in their sects.

Now, even Medicine King Valley has only a few thousand people left.

There are also quite a few mediocre people among them; this is the consequence of leaving one's hometown.

After all, even if they went to the Central Region or the Western Region, they already had influence, so it would be extremely difficult for them to recruit disciples or increase the number of cultivators.

Some of these actions even provoke the ire of local bullies.

This is why they all joined in as soon as they heard that the Ye family was launching a counterattack on the Eastern Region.

"This Penglai sect has usurped the Dao and cultivated itself, committing heinous crimes against Heaven and reason, and even colluding with the demonic beasts of the Jiaohai Sea. They deserve to die a thousand deaths!"

"Moreover, it does not allow teleportation arrays to connect, making it a scourge to the cultivation world!"

……

The list of crimes was outrageous, infuriating everyone.

"The crimes of Penglai are too numerous to count!"

"But rest assured, everyone, from now on, the entire cultivation world of the Eastern Region will belong not only to the Ye family, but also to all cultivators!" Ye Qingnian's short sentence excited everyone.

Although they knew that the Eastern Region was under the protection of the Ye family and that the Ye family was still the master of the Eastern Region, to put it more tactfully, it made them feel much more at ease.

"In recent years, the cultivation world in the Eastern Region has become chaotic due to the corruption and disorder in Penglai, resulting in a severe shortage of cultivators and even a sharp decline in mortals. Therefore, the Ye family has also introduced some solutions." Ye Qingnian continued to explain the plans he had prepared in advance.

"Regarding the teleportation array, the Eastern Region teleportation array will be open to the Central Region, so you can still teleport to the Central Region. However, the teleportation fee will be higher than that of the Central Region teleportation array." Ye Qingnian's first point was about the teleportation array.

Over the years, the Ye family's main source of profit in the Central Region has been teleportation arrays, especially the teleportation arrays of Tian Shu Prefecture, which have made the Ye family a fortune.

Now the Ye family will naturally not let this go.

Of course, the Eastern Region and the Central Region are too far apart, and the cost is also higher. Therefore, the increase in teleportation fees is not because the Ye family wants to make a lot of money, but because the cost is indeed too high.

"As for the location of the teleportation array, it will be placed in Sanyuan Mountain in Qinzhou, where Sanyuan City will also be established!" The Ye family's main forces will still be centered around the three regions of Shahai, Penglai, and Taihang.

Therefore, teleportation arrays cannot be placed too far away, nor can there be too many of them.

Too many of them not only make management difficult, but also lead to insufficient centralization of transmission costs.

Moreover, cultivators from the Central Region who come to the Eastern Region will most likely head to the East Sea, so the teleportation array should be farther away from the East Sea for greater benefits!
After Ye Qingnian finished speaking, no one refused.

They were overjoyed.

They actually have some businesses in the Central Region, which means that their businesses can still operate in the Central Region, although the teleportation cost is quite high.

But it's like an industry that can only be sold off.

"Secondly, the Nine Kingdoms of the Eastern Region will be renamed the Nine Provinces. Small counties will remain counties, while large counties will be converted into prefectures. In the future, the tribute paid by the Ye family will only be paid according to the prefectures!" Ye Qingnian continued.

When the topic of tribute came up, their eyes lit up.

Even the few Nascent Soul cultivators from Medicine King Valley paid close attention.

"The state will be calculated according to the Central Region, and will accommodate one to three Nascent Soul forces. Therefore, the tribute paid by the Ye family will also be calculated based on the three Nascent Soul forces, even if there is only one Nascent Soul force in this state, or even no Nascent Soul force at all..." Ye Qingnian explained the tribute.

He had imagined that someone would refuse, but he later found that no one objected.

Although Penglai only collected one tribute in those days, in reality, some Penglai cultivators embezzled some of it.

Furthermore, the Golden Core, Purple Mansion, and Foundation Establishment forces are also counted under the Nascent Soul cultivators. Back then, although the Ye family only gave tribute to the Taiyi Sect, in reality, the Taiyi Sect, in addition to paying its own share of tribute, also needed to pay tribute to the Golden Core and Purple Mansion forces under its own sect.

This is also why there weren't many Golden Core and Purple Mansion forces at that time.

After all, who would want to increase so many tribute options within their sphere of influence?

Although the Ye family has to pay three forces, the Ye family only charges for this state and will not charge extra for Golden Core and Purple Mansion cultivators.

Theoretically, one state should have one Nascent Soul power, three Golden Core power, and twenty Purple Mansion power, which would make a total of twenty-four powers.

If there are three Nascent Soul cultivators, then the burden will be even greater.

At the same time, Penglai would make additional tribute demands on any nation that only had one Nascent Soul cultivator.

That multiple will only be more than three times, not less.

Moreover, the Ye family only received half of what they received from Penglai back then, which is already quite generous.

Furthermore, if it weren't for the Ye family, they wouldn't have been able to return to the Eastern Region.

Upon seeing this, Ye Qingnian did not continue to lament, but instead began to talk about the plan to resist the beast tide in the Eastern Region.

Rewards for Nascent Soul cultivators who resist the beast tide.

No one had any objection to this, and everyone was extremely enthusiastic.

Even the Sun Saint True Lord and the Moon Saint True Lord were extremely interested.

Although they wield considerable power in the Starry Sea, the Starry Gate is now even more unstable than the Ye family because of that incident back then. After all, while high-level cultivators were preserved, all low-level cultivators either switched to other forces or became unofficial members of the Ye family.

They may have a chance to take it back now, but it's nowhere near what it used to be, and it will be extremely difficult for them to develop further.

After all, the Starry Sea has been completely occupied by the Ye family.

However, the East China Sea and Qingyun Sea area are different; they represent another opportunity for their Starry Sky Sect.

Moreover, since they couldn't enter the Earthly Immortal Realm before, they now have a real chance to do so, and they are willing to work even harder.

"Since everyone agrees, let's move on to another matter." Ye Qingnian did not dwell on the beast tide and tribute.

"The Eastern Region is currently in great turmoil. Therefore, in the coming period, unless there are special reasons, no force should easily annihilate any force above the Purple Mansion level. Even if a force is annihilated, the Ye family will have the highest ownership of the spiritual mountains and lands that are annexed!" Ye Qingnian was naturally copying the policy of the Southern Wilderness State.

With limited power in the Eastern Region, the Ye family naturally wouldn't allow them to slaughter each other.

Moreover, they are not allowed to target each other.

The Ye family also needs to attract some forces from the Central Region to the Eastern Region.

Only in this way can the cultivation world of the Eastern Region develop rapidly.

Only when the cultivation world of the Eastern Region develops can the Ye family truly become wealthy.

"We naturally have no objections, we will follow Patriarch Ye's orders!" The happiest people at this moment were those Golden Core and Purple Mansion forces.

At this moment, the Ye family has practically given them a protective shield.

In this way, even if those Nascent Soul forces wanted to take action, they would be hesitant, allowing them to use this time to develop rapidly.

It's even possible that they could surpass those Nascent Soul cultivators.

It's important to know that having three Nascent Soul cultivators in one state naturally makes them extremely interested.
