Beast Families: I Have an Illustrated Book of All Souls

Chapter 1639 A Trust from the Righteous Path, A Surprising Treasure (Part 2, Seeking Monthly Tickets and Subscriptions)

As the steam from the tea rose, a wisp of purple light shimmered and transformed into a rosy glow, falling upon the pavilion's canopy and adding to the enchanting scenery of this celestial realm.

Because there were many treasures, everyone was in a good mood.

He sat upright on the stool, sometimes looking at the clouds in the distance, sometimes talking about the scenery of the immortal realm.

As Ye Qingnian took out the spiritual tea, Xingyuan Zhenjun took out a bunch of spiritual fruits that resembled grapes, and Yuantan Zhenjun also took out three peaches.

Of course, these two spiritual fruits should not be underestimated.

The former is a fourth-grade top-quality crystal jade green grape, while the latter is actually a fifth-grade fire-attribute elemental fire spirit peach.

There wasn't much introduction given to True Lord Xingyuan and True Lord Yuantan.

However, all of this demonstrates that their group has gained a great deal, and at this moment they can freely take out and consume fifth-grade spiritual fruits and fourth-grade top-quality spiritual fruits.

This would be a luxury at other times.

However, Fairy Zi Ning, being with the righteous sect this time, did not take out any special spiritual fruits.

"Senior Sister Yuan Tan, it is said that the Ziyang Sect has obtained the inheritance of the Dao of Alchemy this time. Congratulations, Senior Sister." Ye Qingnian poured a cup of spiritual tea for the two of them and offered his congratulations.

This time, however, he did not address him as a fellow Daoist.

Upon hearing this, Yuan Tan Zhenjun instantly understood why Ye Qingnian had initially addressed him as a fellow Daoist.

After all, she had only received the inheritance and had not yet broken through to the Nascent Soul stage, nor become a sixth-order alchemist. The matter was still far from being settled, yet she had already started to spread it everywhere, especially within the Earthly Immortal Realm.

Although she herself wanted to compete with the Ye family, she didn't spread the word. Naturally, it was the other Nascent Soul and Golden Core cultivators of the Ziyang Sect who spread the word.

Both the Ziyang Sect and the Zhengdao Sect retreated here several months ago, and the three sects often hold exchange meetings.

Although the Immortal Realm has many treasures and spiritual herbs, it doesn't mean that every cultivator can obtain the high-grade spiritual herbs they need. Trading in advance is a necessary practice for every sect that establishes good relations with them.

This made her somewhat dislike some of the cultivators within the sect.

After all, she had received guidance from Ye Jingcheng, and to publicize it now would offend some people.

"I'm sorry to have troubled you, Junior Brother Ye. It's just an inheritance; countless families in the cultivation world possess it. Once it's truly mastered, I'll offer my congratulations then. It's all just a baseless rumor, and the fact that it's reached your ears makes me, your senior sister, a little embarrassed. These are some fire-attribute fire elemental essence wood seedlings; you can take them back and try planting them." True Monarch Yuan Tan shook her head repeatedly and then took out a few more fire-attribute spirit trees for Ye Qingnian.

This spirit wood is a fifth-order spirit wood, which is extremely effective in cultivating one's natal spirit fire.

Many members of the Ye family possess a natal spirit fire, among whom Ye Qingfeng is the most outstanding.

“Junior brother, don’t be so polite. We’ve gotten a lot this time, and our Ziyang Sect is worried that the plants won’t survive. If the Ye family manages to grow them, we might have to come and ask for your advice.” As Yuan Tan Zhenjun spoke, Ye Qingnian didn’t refuse anymore. After cupping his hands in greeting, the group began discussing the Nascent Soul trading fair a hundred years from now.

Back then, the Divine Transformation Trading Conference was held in the Zisha (purple clay) industry, and the frequency was changed from once every five hundred years to once every three hundred years, which was comparable to the time in the Earthly Immortals industry.

However, once the cultivators obtain the spiritual medicine, they will quickly train other cultivators within their sects. Only after a hundred years will they have enough time, which will be the best time to hold the trade fair.

The next Nascent Soul Trading Conference will also be held in the Three Yuan Immortal City of the Great Yu Realm.

Ye Qingnian didn't say much, but instead kept asking about the experiences of both of them, just like a junior.

This left True Monarch Xingyuan somewhat dazed.

At this moment, he felt as if he had returned to four or five hundred years ago, when he first met Ye Jingcheng, and the feeling he had now was exactly the same as that day.

At that time, he wanted to test Ye Jingcheng, but Ye Jingcheng saw through him at a glance.

This made him feel very emotional.

The Ye family truly embodies the spirit of a great clan, with outstanding individuals emerging in every generation.

Once enough foundation has been accumulated, it will soar to new heights.

He then thought of the Fengtian Sect.

The Ye family now definitely has the strength of the Fengtian Sect, but the Ye family is, after all, the Ye family, not the Fengtian Sect. They are not as extreme, nor are they as overtly aggressive.

However, when a fight broke out, even the Mu family and Tianjue Valley, which had prospered for thousands of years, were wiped out in an instant.

This is enough to prove that the Ye family's authority is not to be violated in the slightest.

……

Yuan Tan Zhenjun left first, leaving only Zi Ning and Xing Yuan Zhenjun behind.

After hesitating for a moment, Xingyuan Zhenjun also looked at Ye Qingnian:

"Junior Brother Ye, when does Uncle-Master Qianchen plan to secretly ascend to immortality?"

"That junior brother doesn't know yet. My father hasn't been in the breakthrough for long. If Grandmaster Zheng Yuan is about to break through, please come and find my father in advance." Ye Qingnian naturally wouldn't answer truthfully.

This is a very important matter.

Xingyuan Zhenjun had no doubts whatsoever.

After all, Ye Jingcheng is indeed too young.

A Nascent Soul cultivator's lifespan can reach a maximum of five thousand years, while Ye Jingcheng is only less than eight hundred years old. It is indeed too early to talk about the Honda Fit now.

"Uncle-Master Zhengyuan will most likely fly away in seventy or eighty years. He might not be able to wait until Junior Sister Zining has successfully broken through." True Monarch Xingyuan did not hide anything from the Ye family.

The righteous sect will definitely need the Ye family's support in the future.

The Righteous Path Sect's current holdings are quite substantial. In addition to the original six righteous states, it has also acquired the Southern Barbarian State, the Southern Profound State, the Southern Heaven State, and parts of the Southern Region.

Without a Nascent Soul cultivator to defend them, they might end up like the Ouyang family, being divided up by other immortal sects.

The premise of everyone talking about morality is that the strength is equal. When the strength is not equal, even if the Divine Lord Zheng Yuan successfully sneaks in and the Soul Slip is still there, he cannot descend to the lower realm and therefore has no deterrent effect.

"Don't worry, senior brother. My Ye family is also a member of the righteous sect. We will help senior sister and senior brother protect the righteous sect!" Ye Qingnian cupped his hands in a gesture of respect and promised. Then, the two of them took out some treasures and exchanged them.

At the same time, he also mentioned the request for the Yuan Shen Dan (Primordial Spirit Pill).

Ye Qingnian readily agreed.

The Ye family is naturally grateful to the Righteous Path Sect. If the Righteous Path Sect fails to gather enough Yuan Shen Pills and the Ye family's Yuan Shen Pills are of decent quality, they will consider selling one to the Righteous Path Sect.

But now that the righteous sects have managed to gather enough spiritual herbs, it's naturally a happy situation for everyone.

……

A month passed quietly, on a small island in the Penglai Sea.

Ye Jingcheng landed on the high platform, opened his eyes, and looked at the void in front of him.

He cast several spiritual spells, which landed in the distance, and the surrounding area lit up with brilliant spiritual light. The Earth Immortal Platform also lit up again, and cultivators appeared on the Earth Immortal Platform one by one.

At this moment, apart from a few forces such as Blood King Valley and the Wan family, all the surviving cultivators were filled with joy.

Even after handing over the spoils to the Ye family, they still had a considerable amount left, enough for their sect to develop for a long time.

Ye Jingcheng also began to examine them one by one.

With his Star Illusion Eyes combined with his magic weapon, he could clearly see that no cultivator was hiding anything.

"Senior Qianchen, we have obtained quite a few spiritual herbs this time, including this sixth-tier Azure Moon Frost Grass, a Nine-Bend Spirit Ginseng, and a Horse Infant Mushroom... Could you use these herbs as a discount?" The leader of the Medicine King Valley team this time was True Monarch Baitui. Although two Nascent Soul cultivators died this time, the Medicine King Valley's harvest was not as good as before, and they only obtained a Azure God Fruit.

This Azure God Fruit can be used to refine Azure God Pills, which can increase the chances of breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage.

However, it is still somewhat inferior to the Yuan Shen Dan and the other three Transformation Divine Medicines.

However, since it was a spiritual fruit for breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage at the sixth level, True Monarch Baitui was somewhat uneasy and reluctant to part with it, which is why he dared to say those words.

"Okay!" Ye Jingcheng agreed without hesitation. The Ye family didn't particularly care about the Azure God Fruit these days.

Moreover, Medicine King Valley has performed well in recent years, providing the Ye family with a lot of medicinal herbs.

By now, he also understood that Medicine King Valley must have a technique for accelerating the ripening of spiritual herbs with wood attributes. Although its efficiency was not as good as that of Blood Spring Spiritual Herbs, Medicine King Valley had a large number of cultivators!
Meanwhile, the sixth-tier Azure Moon Frost Grass given by the Hundred Refinements True Monarch is also extremely precious. It can be used to refine the Thousand Moon Spirit Condensation Pill, and the medicinal essence is nearly seven thousand years old. If refined well, the probability of obtaining pill patterns is not small. It will be of considerable help to his breakthrough to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

Of course, he was also confident that when it came time to refine the Azure God Pill, Medicine King Valley would still come to him.

In this way, they won over the hearts of the people and also obtained the elixir.

With the remaining Nascent Soul Elixir, the Ye family's gains will definitely be substantial; by all accounts, the Ye family is the biggest winner.

After True Monarch Baitui left in high spirits, Ouyang Jin and True Monarch Xuankui both breathed a sigh of relief.

They had actually been acquainted with the Ye family for a long time, but they couldn't help but worry that once the Ye family became a celestial sect, they would transform into a different, aloof and superior entity.

They collect more or specifically demand that the other party hand over certain elixirs that they also need.

They were helpless.

But judging from the appearance of True Monarch Baitui, it means that Divine Monarch Qianchen is still the same Divine Monarch they know.

He did not become a different person because of the interests of the Immortal Realm.

After all the precious herbs were collected, Ye Jingcheng discovered that he had actually received three sixth-grade spiritual herbs. One was from Medicine King Valley, one from the Ouyang family, and the other, unexpectedly, was obtained by Wan Chengjie, a Golden Core cultivator.

Although it is just a very ordinary Heavenly Silver Moon Flower, it is still a sixth-grade main ingredient for the Heavenly Pill.

The latter was clearly obtained from the celestial realm.

But Wan Muchun did not come out after seeing the latter.

Wan Chengjie didn't have much of a smile on his face either.

He then understood everything.

What pains these family cultivators most in the cultivation world is not missing out on certain treasures, but seeing their carefully nurtured juniors die before their eyes.

At that time, everything was meaningless.

"What do you want to change to?" Ye Jingcheng asked Wan Chengjie.

"The Nascent Soul Pill, the Heavenly Beast Nascent Soul Pill will suffice." Of the treasures he brought out this time, only the sixth-grade spiritual medicine was outstanding; the other spiritual medicines were rather ordinary. Therefore, in return for handing over this spiritual medicine, the Ye family would definitely have to give him some treasures in return.

To Ye Jingcheng's surprise, Wan Chengjie did not make an exorbitant demand for the Nascent Soul Pill.

Don't be fooled by the fact that the Heavenly Beast Infant Transformation Pill only has the words "Heavenly

However, because it is made using the nascent soul of a demon beast, cultivators who consume it will find it difficult to advance their cultivation, just like those who only have a pseudo-core cultivation level, and will become pseudo-navel cultivators.

The only difference is that those who break through to the Nascent Soul stage using the Heavenly Beast Nascent Soul Pill also have a lifespan of two thousand years.

"Okay!" Ye Jingcheng didn't hesitate at this moment.

As he spoke, he took out a jade token and told the latter to go directly to the Ye family to collect it.

After all the cultivators from the affiliated forces had left.

Ye Jingcheng also looked at Ye Haicheng, Ye Qingnian, and other members of the Ye family.

"Jingcheng, take a look at this!" Ye Haicheng activated the formation to prevent other cultivators from seeing it, and then took out the purple jade fragment.

When the purple jade fragment appeared, Ye Jingcheng was also extremely shocked.

He had searched the souls of Mu Minghe, the Gluttonous Demon Ancestor, and Mu Huayuan, and knew that this was the core of the Jade Soul Clan.

Did they descend to the mortal realm through the Immortal Realm?

"It's not clear yet; I'll need you to perform a soul search to find out. But we need to be more careful. We need to be more rigorous in questioning both the inner and outer hall staff. Also, I suggest that both the inner and outer inner halls be equipped with ordinary inner hall beast patterns to add an extra layer of security," Ye Haicheng said.

Since the Dream-Swallowing Insect had not yet emerged from seclusion, Ye Jingcheng naturally had no way to search the soul, so he had to put the matter aside.

"Jingcheng, Qingnian and Tengchuan, as well as your peach wood and Liekong, you've made a great contribution this time. Look at these two!" Ye Haicheng then took out a storage bag and handed it to Ye Jingcheng.

Ye Jingcheng thought it was a miraculous medicine, so he only glanced at it briefly and didn't pay much attention to it.

With so many combatants and a lot of information contributed by the family this time, he himself wouldn't believe it if the gains were small.

But after taking a look, he was surprised to find that there were actually two jade slips.

One of them was fairly ordinary, but the other one was actually similar to the spirit jade they had obtained from the Northern Underworld Immortal Palace.

They all smiled when they saw Ye Haicheng and Ye Qingnian.

At that moment, his heart couldn't help but tighten.

He didn't know how long it had been since he had felt this nervous.

But the thought that it might be a sacred text made it impossible not to feel that way.

He first looked at the ordinary jade slip, the latter half of the Five Spirits True Scripture, which the Ye family elders had indeed brought back for him.

Looking at that celestial jade radiating a glow, one could sense the vast chaotic light and the mysterious, awe-inspiring presence within.

A hint of surprise appeared on his face.

"The Primordial Five Elements Immortal Scripture." Ye Jingcheng never expected that his family would bring him such a great gift.

"Jingcheng, there's no need for thanks. We're all from the same family, and we'll need you to refine pills next!" Ye Haicheng seemed to have anticipated what Ye Jingcheng was about to say and spoke up repeatedly.

Every Nascent Soul cultivator who participated in the trip to the Earthly Immortal Realm revealed a knowing smile.

In their view, this time, they had finally helped Ye Jingcheng.

Ye Qingnian even took out a hidden cave.

The elixir obtained this time was inside the cave.

This included four and a half portions of materials for the Primordial Spirit Pill and nearly eighteen portions of materials for the Nascent Soul Pill.

Of course, many of them need to be ripened artificially.

But for the Ye family, it's still a huge number.

Ye Jingcheng himself also confiscated four portions of materials for Nascent Soul Pills. Even if he only refines two pills per batch, that would still yield forty Nascent Soul Pills.

As for his alchemy skills, even a batch of three pills was only considered a mediocre performance.

Therefore, after this Immortal Realm, the Ye family's Nascent Soul cultivators will definitely experience a surge in numbers.

Of course, the Ye family should also keep some.

Unlike other immortal sects, which would leave some spiritual herbs for breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage in the Earthly Immortal Realm for the next time, the Ye family had methods to accelerate the process, so they weren't so conservative and brought them all back.

Even if the Ye family has more Nascent Soul cultivators in the next Immortal Realm, their gains may not be as great as this one.

We should still reserve some as the foundation of the Ye family to ensure that future geniuses of the Ye family can more smoothly break through to the Nascent Soul stage, and even reach the Divine Transformation stage.

Besides these elixirs, at least three batches of Thousand Moon Spirit Condensation Pills, three batches of Heavenly Palace Pills, and two batches of Three Jade Divine Essence Pills can be refined from them.

Including the cultivation techniques and these elixirs.

At this moment, Ye Jingcheng was confident that within a hundred years, he and Qingqiu Fox Saint would break through to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm and the mid-stage of the sixth rank, respectively.

This makes smuggling into the spirit world safer.

Of course, after this Immortal Realm event ends, the Ye family will also need to consider who will remain.

At the same time, Ye Qingfeng and Ye Jingyu will also be going into seclusion.
