Beast Families: I Have an Illustrated Book of All Souls

Chapter 1632 Heavenly Nirvana Breakthrough Begins at Earth Immortal (Two Chapters Combined, Seeking Monthly Tickets)
Inside the council hall, Ye Qingnian's plan was explained in great detail, and everyone listened attentively.

From acquiring rare and precious medicinal herbs to searching for special nodes in the Immortal Realm, and even redrawing the map of the Immortal Realm, to collecting rare and uncommon spiritual herb seeds from the outside world.

Compared to the previous great battle with the Mu family, this time, they can truly contribute to the Ye family.

Therefore, no one dared to slack off, especially since there was still a Divine Transformation Elixir in the Earthly Immortal Realm.

Compared to cultivators from other factions, they were actually quite lucky.

The Ye family has a sixth-level alchemist and the means to accelerate the ripening of spiritual herbs.

This would allow them to obtain the Yuan Shen Pill.

For breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage, the success rate may differ by 30% to 40% depending on whether one has the Nascent Soul Pill or not.

Even with the Primordial Spirit Pill and the Transformation Spirit Elixir, the chances of a cultivator successfully breaking through are reduced by at least 20%.

Don't underestimate these two percent; sometimes they can determine whether to hold a deification ceremony, a somber attempt, or even the eve of a funeral.

Previously, six people attempted to break through: Tianjiaohai, Penglai, Tiannie, Qingqiu, Chenjing, and Jinpeng. Among them, there were many sixth-order treasure medicines, but only the Jinpeng clan succeeded in breaking through.

Of course, the Crimson Demon Lord of the Penglai Demon Sect didn't have time to break through before the Ye family attacked and he died on Penglai Mountain.

But this is enough to prove how difficult it is for a Nascent Soul cultivator to break through to the Divine Transformation stage.

"This is the time and signal for the gathering of the Earthly Immortal Realm. Also, I'll trouble Uncle Jinghu with the Golden Core cultivators of the family and the Nascent Soul and Golden Core cultivators of the affiliated forces..." Ye Qingnian looked at Ye Jinghu one last time and handed him a list.

The Golden Core cultivators in the family were not doing it voluntarily.

Instead, it depends on three factors: willingness, strength, and suitability for the Immortal Realm. This is not something that the Golden Core cultivators themselves can decide.

The Ye family now has quite a few Golden Core cultivators, numbering in the hundreds.

Of course, the Ye family would not deliberately hide their geniuses. For the Ye family, there is no shortage of geniuses or top-notch secret techniques. What they really lack are cultivators who can break through to higher levels.

After everyone had left, Ye Jingcheng kept Ye Qingnian, Ye Qingfeng, Ye Haicheng, and Ye Jingyu behind.

They were each given a sixth-tier domain-breaking talisman and two special treasures.

Most of the Domain-Breaking Talismans were obtained by the Ye family from the Mu family and the Penglai Treasure Vault, while a few were exchanged by the Ye family at previous trade fairs.

Ye Jingcheng had previously received a reward from Zheng Yuan Shenjun.

However, very few people in the cultivation world currently refine such talismans, and for Nascent Soul cultivators, the effect is not significant due to the addition of the Heavenly Realm. But for the Nascent Soul cultivators of the Ye family, it is a fairly good means of survival in the Earthly Immortal Realm.

Among the special treasures, there is a sixth-tier talisman treasure, forged using a sixth-tier magic weapon.

The Ye family has acquired quite a few sixth-tier magic treasures over the years, many of which are slightly damaged.

A sixth-tier magic weapon can most likely be used to refine two to three talisman treasures. Ye Jingcheng is not very good at this, so even though he used three sixth-tier magic weapons, he only produced five talisman treasures.

The remaining special magic weapon is a special technique used by those sixth-tier demon saints.

The Tianni clan can condense Tianni Spirit Feathers, the Qingqiu Fox clan can condense Qingqiu Fox Eyes (a one-time use item), the Golden Roc has Golden Roc Feathers, and the Chenjing clan has Chenjing Profound Marrow.

In addition, there is the sealed foxfire of the Crimson Flame Fox.

Ye Jingcheng also took out one each.

Since there were four people, there was one extra set, so Ye Jingcheng gave the extra set to Ye Qingnian to distribute.

The latter was the head of the family, and he arranged the selection himself.

After doing all this, Ye Jingcheng felt relieved. He went to his cave dwelling, sat under the apricot tree, and took out a storage bag.

Chu Yanqing is currently in seclusion, and inside this storage bag are not other treasures, but the remaining majority of the materials for advancing pills.

To Ye Jingcheng's delight, there were quite a few materials for the Demon Seal among them. The only pity was that he still couldn't gather enough peach wood, blood spring, and the advancement pills for the Rift Void Divine Earthworm Cave Spirit. Of course, the difference wasn't too great.

Ye Jingcheng was somewhat looking forward to the next trade fair.

The timing of the trade fair was shortened last time, as suggested by Lord Yunsha.

Ye Jingcheng can participate in one more trade fair before flying to the Spirit Realm.

Compared to the last trade fair, Ye Jingcheng didn't attract many cultivators, but now he's confident that with his current alchemy skills and the sixth-grade spirit pills he's accumulated over the years, he'll definitely be able to exchange them for a lot of treasures.

As Ye Jingcheng spoke, he also entered the cave.

The cave is rather deserted now. The Seven-Colored Cloud Deer, Golden Falcon, and Roc Fish have been handed over to other members of the family, and the Golden Scale Beast Zhu Yan has been in seclusion for seventy years.

Currently, the main spirit beasts in the cave are the Crimson Flame Fox and the Cave Stone Spirit.

Of course, as Ye Jingcheng entered the cave, a white mantis with two huge mantis blades landed in front of him.

Don't be fooled by the fact that this mantis looks like it's only recently hatched.

However, his cultivation level is indeed at the late stage of the third rank, not far from the fourth rank.

This was the very egg that Ye Jingcheng had left behind from the spirit egg of the Rift Sky Clan.

This mantis has great potential.

Of course, the reason Ye Jingcheng stayed was that he planned to properly nurture both the Void-Splitting Divine Earthworm Cave Heaven Stone Spirit Void Ancient Dragon and this Void-Splitting Sky Mantis.

The connection between the spirit world and the mortal world is so weak that even if Ye Jingcheng has a true spirit, he cannot guarantee that he can definitely make contact between the two worlds.

In that case, we should cultivate more space-type spirit beasts.

He doesn't have much energy right now, but taking on another immature Scorpion is still a piece of cake.

At that time, whoever masters the ability to ascend and descend will represent the Ye family's clan in the Spirit Realm. They can descend to the Spirit Realm to awaken beast-manipulating patterns, while geniuses in the mortal realm, especially those with artistic talents, can be sent to the Spirit Realm to use more resources to improve their cultivation.

Through the memories of the Gluttonous Demon Ancestor and Mu Mingqing, he learned that longevity pills and longevity fruits were not so rare in the Spirit Realm.

Many of them can add three hundred years to one's lifespan, and some can even add over a thousand years!
This is useless for ordinary geniuses, but for those with exceptional skills, longevity is the best.

"Alright, go cultivate!" Ye Jingcheng infused the little mantis with precious light and gave it some spiritual herbs, letting it cultivate on its own.

Since all the materials for advancing to higher levels have already been prepared, there is no need to collect many more materials. However, the necessary training and consolidation are still essential.

Normally, Ye Jingcheng would also have the Cave Heaven Stone Spirit tap the Sky-Splitting Mantis from time to time.

Only when you feel it's about time will you use the elixir to allow them to break through and grow rapidly.

Ye Jingcheng then went to the Xuan Tian Vine and saw that the vine had grown again. Although it hadn't grown much, only a few inches, Ye Jingcheng could feel that the Xuan patterns inside seemed to have increased.

Ye Jingcheng couldn't understand the mysterious patterns, but he could sense their quantity and strength.

Ye Jingcheng was also very pleased with this progress.

This indicates that his own precious light is indeed quite useful.

Ye Jingcheng couldn't help but look forward to the time when the Xuan Tian Ling Vine would mature and bear fruit or produce a treasure.

According to the jade slip obtained by the Ye family, the Xuan Tian Ling Vine may bear Xuan Tian Ling Bao or Xuan Tian Ling Guo.

But either way, it's enough to drive both Nascent Soul cultivators and Mahayana cultivators crazy.

There are even records that say this mysterious object can help one break through to the Mahayana stage and transcend the ascension tribulation.

This could be considered unofficial history. Ye Jingcheng didn't know if it was true or not, but it was enough to prove how precious this treasure was.

After examining the spiritual herbs, Ye Jingcheng sat cross-legged again and began cultivating his techniques and spiritual power.

Compared to sixty years ago, his current spiritual power feels very close to the strength of the late-stage Nascent Soul realm.

This reduced the constraints of the soul contract somewhat. However, he knew that this was because the Heavenly Nirvana Jade Dragon had not yet broken through; once both of them broke through, the pressure on his soul would be even greater.

He had already decided that he wouldn't use the remaining Three Jade Divine Essence Pill as a reward.

He planned to keep it for himself, hoping to break through to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm before sneaking into the Spirit Realm.

Of course, this depends heavily on the gains made in the Immortal Realm this time.

After all, his cultivation technique had already reached its limit.

You either have to figure it out yourself, or you have to try a different method.

……

Ten years passed quietly once again. Tianni Mountain, accompanied by a huge heavenly fire, flew into the sky, and at the same time, a huge phoenix cry was heard.

The next moment, countless fire-attribute spiritual energies converged towards the mountain peak.

The terrifying commotion affected most of the mountain range.

Even the Fox Saint of Qingqiu sensed it.

The Tianni clan, who were originally heading to the Qingqiu Earthly Platform, all stopped at this moment.

Look up at the distant sky.

"Lord Tian Nie has broken through to the mid-stage of the sixth rank!" Sensing that terrifying aura, countless Tian Nie demon phoenixes were overjoyed.

This signifies another significant step forward in the strength of the Tianni clan.

It wasn't just the Tiannie clan that was rejoicing. A teleportation array lit up in the distance, and Qingqiu Fox Saint and Ye Jingcheng appeared one after the other, along with many Qingqiu Fox Clan members behind Qingqiu Fox Saint.

"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Tian Nie!" Qingqiu Fox Saint looked at Tian Nie Phoenix Saint, a hint of envy still showing in his eyes.

After all, it was right there when Ye Jingcheng gave it the elixir as a reward.

Seeing that the other party had obtained the three Jade Divine Essence Pills, he had finally broken through as well.

To become a mid-stage sixth-order being.

Of course, it also knew that as long as it followed the Ye family and Ye Jingcheng, its cultivation would definitely be able to break through to the mid-stage of the sixth rank.

Furthermore, it felt that following the Ye family would make it much easier to smuggle itself into the spirit world.

Although it is a feeling, one can have great faith in one's feelings.

After all, the Ye family has done so many incredible things.

"Master, Fellow Daoist Qingqiu!" Tian Nie Feng Sheng didn't hesitate at all and directly addressed Ye Jingcheng as Master.

It was indeed excited at this moment. It had been stuck at the early stage of the sixth rank for thousands of years, otherwise it wouldn't be so excited.

Now that it has reached that point, it also sees a phoenix of the Tianni clan in the distance, its bloodline aura much stronger.

This phoenix is ​​neither Zhu Luan nor Guan Feng, but a phoenix named Chi Yue.

Previously, he was at the mid-stage of the fifth rank, but now he has reached the late stage of the fifth rank, and his aura is exceptionally powerful.

It originally intended to give one of the two advancement pills given by the Ye family to Guan Feng and the other to Zhu Luan.

However, Guan Feng already had Ye Qingfeng, so he naturally didn't need Tian Nie Demon Saint to give him the spot. Therefore, he gave that spot to Chi Yue, and now it seems that the effect is indeed remarkable.

He even felt that the other party was stronger than Zhu Luan before.

"It's good that you've broken through. I came to see you and brought two sixth-tier spirit pills for you two!" Ye Jingcheng took out two spirit pills.

Although these two spirit pills are sixth-grade spirit pills, they are not enough to improve one's cultivation level significantly; their main purpose is to consolidate one's strength.

It is also less precious than the Heavenly Palace Pill, the Profound Purity Essence Pill, and the Thousand Moon Spirit Condensation Pill.

However, it cannot be denied that this elixir would still be very valuable if it were taken out, and would be fought over by many Nascent Soul cultivators or sixth-order demon saints.

"Thanks to Master, Yu'er has now begun her seclusion. Judging from her aura, she is much stronger than Min Yue was back then. She should be able to break through to the sixth rank!" Qingqiu Fox Saint was also very grateful.

Back then, it distributed two Bloodline Pills and one Primordial Spirit Pill, giving two of them to its granddaughter, Yu'er.

The remaining one was given to a fox king in the Ye family who possessed a Nascent Soul stage.

They knew that the Ye family would definitely have no shortage of advancement pills, so they naturally couldn't focus on the clan as the core, but rather on the Ye family's Beast Hall.

"Then we still need to pay more attention to the spiritual treasures used for tribulation..." Ye Jingcheng wanted to take out the spiritual treasures.

But the Fox Saint of Qingqiu waved his hand repeatedly.

Having already acquired quite a few spiritual treasures by following the Ye family, and with the funds raised previously, there shouldn't be any problem in helping Yu'er successfully overcome her tribulation.

The hardest part is that the primordial spirit can't even emerge, and the final step can't be reached.

After learning about the general situation from both tribes...

Ye Jingcheng also teleported away, this time heading to Penglai Island.

Excluding the Demon Saint Holy Mountain, the Ye family has two Earth Immortal Platforms opened: the Sand Sea Earth Immortal Platform and the Penglai Earth Immortal Platform.

The former doesn't require Ye Jingcheng's oversight, but for the latter, Ye Jingcheng must be stationed nearby to guard the Earth Immortal Platform.

First, to prevent their positions from being leaked; second, to ensure that all factions can claim their share of the salary when the time comes.

Because of his Star Illusion Eye and the use of magical artifacts, Ye Jingcheng was able to see clearly those hidden caves.

What struck him as ironic was that in the previous two times he had been in the Immortal Realm, he was the one being inspected.

Now, however, he has become the inspector.

Because the Immortal Realm is about to open, Penglai Island has already gathered many cultivators.

It also became exceptionally lively.

Ye Jingcheng also saw many familiar faces.

Among them are Mo Dao Zhenjun of Tian Dao Sect, Xuan Kui Zhenjun of Xuan Kui Sect, Bai Duan Zhenjun of Medicine King Valley, Qing Chen Zhenjun, and Liu Huan Xianzi.

There are also Golden Core cultivators from sects such as the Wei family, Heyumen, and Zifuzong.

Seeing familiar faces arrive naturally evoked a sense of nostalgia, while noticing those who didn't come filled him with an indescribable feeling.

He knew that many of those who didn't come, except for those at the Nascent Soul stage, might never be seen again.

After all, the Ye family is not as infamous as it was in Penglai before.

To Ye Jingcheng's surprise, his apprentice, Ouyang Jiayi, was also going to the Immortal Realm.

However, she wasn't with the Ouyang family, but with the Ye family.

Moreover, his relationship with Ye Qingfeng is quite good.

Of course, because of the Ye family's secret, the Ye family will also assign her new tasks.

To prevent the Ye family's core secrets from being leaked.

What surprised the Ye family even more was that Ouyang Jiayi also produced a lot of information about the Earth Immortal Realm.

It is said that the Ouyang family's strength has been greatly diminished, leaving them unable to investigate.
