Beast Families: I Have an Illustrated Book of All Souls

Chapter 1528 Sixth-Tier Trade Fair (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
Penglai Island, Penglai Mountain.

Surrounded by vast clouds and mist, the entire sacred mountain was completely shrouded in fog, with the occasional giant crane flying by adding to its ethereal beauty.

At this moment, a huge yellow dragon soared into the sky, breaking through the air and leaving behind a golden spiritual glow that lingered for a long time.

On top of the dragon, several cultivators were landing.

“Penglai is a celestial continent in the Eastern Region. It’s a pity I’ve been here several times, but this time I’m finally seeing its true power.” A cultivator with an air of otherworldly elegance smiled slightly and sighed to the group beside him, prompting the young man next to him to cup his hands in response.

"Uncle Xingyuan, you flatter me!" This young man was Ye Qingnian. Because Ye Jingcheng was a disciple of Zhengyuan Divine Lord and a junior brother of Xingyuan True Lord, even though he was also a Nascent Soul cultivator, he still addressed Xingyuan True Lord as Uncle.

As the current head of the Ye family, he is extremely busy at this moment.

With the conflict in the Southern Region coming to an end, all the forces in the Great Yu Realm have now arrived in the Eastern Region through the teleportation array at Sanyuan Mountain.

Although the Nascent Soul Ceremony is still more than forty years away, it is impossible for all the forces to wait until the Infant Ceremony to come and offer their congratulations.

The appropriate congratulatory gift should still be sent.

Furthermore, those who gave gifts were almost all late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, and the gifts they gave were mostly top-grade fifth-rank to low-grade sixth-rank spiritual materials or medicines. This was also a tacit understanding and a matter of prestige among the various Nascent Soul forces.

As the head of the Ye family, Ye Qingnian naturally had to receive them one by one.

Sometimes, he would even take these distinguished guests on a tour of the Eastern Region.

The ones who came from the Righteous Path Sect this time were True Lord Xingyuan, True Lord Xuhuai, Xiao Wankun, Wang Kewei, and others.

Unlike other forces, Ye Qingnian will only wait at Lingshan.

As the noble sect of the Ye family, Zhengdao Sect, with Zhengyuan Divine Lord being Ye Jingcheng's master, allowed Ye Qingnian to directly receive the group on the teleportation array.

It was also used to guide the Rock Dragon, which had recently broken through to the fifth rank.

Unlike in the past, when the Ye family needed to keep a low profile, now the Ye family needs to demonstrate the grandeur of a celestial sect and attract other sects to develop in the Eastern Region.

Therefore, it is much more high-profile than before.

"What is the situation in the East China Sea?" This time, the question was asked to the True Lord of Emptiness.

At this moment, the True Lord of Emptiness has a more refined true essence than he did a hundred years ago, and has already surpassed the True Lord of Star Essence.

Besides bringing gifts, he also had the idea of ​​helping the Ye family resist the beast tide during his trip to the Eastern Region.

It should be noted that the beast tide is still ongoing in the East Sea, and the Ye family has even created a merit list. Anyone who kills a fourth or fifth-order dragon from the Heavenly Dragon Sea can gain some merit.

Of course, the Nascent Soul stage of the righteous sects is not solely for the purpose of achieving merit.

Instead, they were worried that the Ye family had just destroyed Penglai, resulting in the loss of many high-level combatants and the need for many cultivators to recuperate.

"It's neither good nor bad. The demon forces in the East Sea are probably testing us." Ye Qingnian didn't hide anything.

The current situation in the East China Sea is revolving around the Tianma waters.

The Ye family's affiliated Nascent Soul forces have all deployed a large number of cultivators in the Qilu and Lu states.

Although the East Sea Whale Clan and the Golden Roc Clan did not make a move, their affiliated demon beasts still appeared in the East Sea.

The Ye family had anticipated this move.

However, as long as the various clans do not immediately send all their beasts, it is good news for the Ye family.

After all, Ye Jingcheng and Qingqiu Fox Saint were both recuperating and cultivating at the moment.

Even Yu Long and Tian Nie Feng Sheng, who were guarding the East Sea, were in a state of half-guarding and half-recovering from injuries. The longer it dragged on, the more the Ye family's strength would recover. In fact, because they had swallowed Penglai, the Ye family's strength would increase by leaps and bounds in a few years.

“That’s perfect. We fellow disciples are just worried about hitting a bottleneck in our cultivation. Maybe slaying a few dragons will help us break through that bottleneck,” True Monarch Xu Huai replied with a smile.

Xiao Wankun and Wang Kewei behind him nodded repeatedly.

"Then, nephew, I thank you all, my fellow uncles." Ye Qingnian smiled and cupped his hands in thanks.

The group soon arrived at the council hall on Mount Penglai, where Ye Qingnian even took out spiritual tea to entertain them.

"Qingnian, this was sent by Uncle Zhengyuan and Uncle Ziyang after they discussed it." After tasting the spiritual tea, True Monarch Xingyuan also took out a storage bag and handed it to Ye Qingnian.

"Although the Ye family didn't take action in the Southern Region, they still contributed by destroying Penglai. Since they didn't take any spoils in the Southern Region, this can be considered a gift from the five immortal sects in the Central Region." Seeing Ye Qingnian's confusion, True Monarch Xingyuan added.

Ye Qingnian was also extremely surprised when he saw the treasures inside the storage bag.

Inside the storage bag were more than ten fifth-order spiritual herbs that were over three thousand years old, as well as one sixth-order spiritual herb. In addition, there were five thousand high-grade spiritual stones, an ancient treasure, and five fifth-order magic treasures.

The ancient treasure is a green lamp, while the fifth-tier magic treasures are relatively rare magic treasures such as needles, locks, rings, towers, and discs.

“Don’t refuse. This was secured by our two senior uncles. Furthermore, the Righteous Path Sect not only reclaimed the three southern states, but also occupied two states in the Southern Region. All of this is thanks to the Ye family,” True Monarch Xingyuan added.

After doing all that, I took out a storage bag.

"This is a congratulatory gift from the Righteous Path Sect." Ye Qingnian was even more surprised after seeing it.

Because this gift was none other than three Nascent Soul Pills.

Don't think that the Nascent Soul Pill is just a spiritual pill for breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage.

In terms of rarity alone, it is more precious than some common sixth-grade spiritual herbs.

After all, ordinary sixth-grade spiritual medicines can only improve the true essence of Nascent Soul cultivators, but breaking through is extremely difficult. However, if three Nascent Soul Pills are used cleverly, they can create three Nascent Soul cultivators.

At this moment, what the Ye family lacks most is the Nascent Soul Pill.

Furthermore, Ye Qingnian believed that the righteous sects were definitely lacking Nascent Soul Pills.

"Thank you very much, Uncle Xingyuan." This time, Ye Qingnian did not refuse.

"By the way, this time Uncle-Master Zhengyuan also asked me to pass on a message: there will be a Nascent Soul Trading Conference in eight years. If you want to participate, you can use this token as a guide!" True Monarch Xingyuan took out another token, which was made of white jade.

It only has the character "君" on it, so it obviously does not belong to the token of the Great Yu Realm.

The Ye family now possesses many treasures, but in reality, not all of them are useful. Therefore, Ye Qingnian was overjoyed to hear about the sixth-tier trade fair.

Before Ye Jingcheng went into seclusion, he had told him to keep an eye out for high-end auctions and trade fairs.

This one is just right.

"This jade slip contains information about some recent major trade fairs. You can take a look when you have time." True Monarch Xingyuan took out another jade slip.

This jade slip contains records of auctions and trade fairs of the fifth rank and above in the Central Region and several adjacent realms, and is also intended for Nascent Soul cultivators like Ye Qingnian of the Ye family.

Now that the Ye family has destroyed Penglai, many of their treasures may be useless, so it's natural for them to participate in trade fairs and auctions.

Furthermore, as a Nascent Soul power, the Ye family also needs to gather more information and participate in more Tier 5 trade fairs to better enhance their reputation.
