Beast Families: I Have an Illustrated Book of All Souls

Chapter 789: The Fourth Level Talisman of the Ye Family Gang Ladder (Three-in-one chapter, asking for monthly votes)
Above the sea of ​​sand, the sun rises in the east, illuminating the entire Tianfeng Oasis with golden clouds and dazzling colors.

The shadow of the thick earth yellow dragon also rose up at this moment, tumbling and dancing together with the red flame phoenix.

On top of Tianying Peak, dozens of monks were beating drums and gongs, and countless colorful clouds were floating all over the mountain.

The sound of rattle broke the tranquility of the sea of ​​sand, heralding the arrival of joy.

At the same time, the four beast valleys began to roar one by one, as if they had discussed it in advance.

The three-eyed demon roc soared into the sky, with flames shooting up into the sky.

The lightning flashes from Lei Peng raged, also rising and falling, as if a thunder calamity had arrived, extremely shocking.

Even the mammoths and golden lizards soared into the sky and roared for a while before falling down, leaving a lingering shadow of their burly spirits in everyone's hearts.

At the foot of Tianying Peak is a huge square, where many monks wearing Taoist robes of various colors gathered.

They stood in twos and threes, their eyes serious and full of respect for the sky.

Especially when they saw those flying spirit beasts, they felt that any one of them was enough to kill all of them.

But these were all spiritual beasts raised by the Ye family, which naturally shocked them greatly.

Today is the day of the Nascent Soul Ceremony, and some of them are affiliated families, and some are independent cultivators.

They had actually been waiting here for a whole night, but of course many monks did not want to wait that long.

But the blame lies with Wan Chengjie from the Wan family. This well-known name in the Shahai for nearly ten years had been waiting here the night before.

As Wan Chengjie and others came here, Xu Changkong from the Xu family and Ma Xiuyuan from the Ma family all came over, causing those foundation-building families and Qi-training families to follow.

Falling behind, those independent cultivators thought that it was a rule set by the Ye family, and they all waited here in advance.

At this moment, seeing the dragons flying and the phoenixes dancing, and the beasts soaring and the rocs roaring, everyone was extremely shocked.

Many independent cultivators knew that the Ye family was very powerful, but they had never had such a positive experience. Many of them had never even had the opportunity to come to Tianfeng Oasis.

They only know that the Ye family is stronger than the Zhang and Jia families, but they don’t know more.

After meeting today, they felt that the Ye family was truly like a towering mountain that could only be looked up at but not viewed up close.

"The auspicious time has come. Let's climb the mountain and make a pilgrimage!" Wan Chengjie also took the initiative to speak at this moment.

This statement also made others hesitate.

Most Nascent Soul ceremonies would begin at noon, but it was just dawn now.

Logically speaking, we shouldn't go up the mountain at this moment.

Of course, they were also curious as to why the Ye family was so powerful at this moment.

"Everyone, be serious. Today might be a great opportunity for many of you cultivators!" Seeing that some people were still unconvinced, Wan Chengjie also explained.

After saying that, he led the four people from the Wan family towards the mountain.

Sure enough, they soon saw the Ye family’s mountain gate.

The four big characters of Tianfeng Ye Family were extremely graceful at this moment, with the style of dragons and phoenixes dancing in the air. There was even a sense of graceful sword intent falling in them, which was timeless and sharp.

After passing the mountain gate, you will see stone steps leading up the mountain.

In front of the mountain stairs, members of the Ye family were standing on both sides, and there were also golden-scaled beasts and armor-piercing beasts that had obviously advanced and were watching closely.

"Everyone has only one chance to climb the mountain. At the same time, climbers must not crowd and must not look directly at the words "Ye Family"!" This time it was Ye Qingnan who spoke.

As a foundation-building cultivator of the Ye Jiaqing generation, he was able to grab the opportunity to guard the mountain gate this time as a result of a competition between him and other clansmen in the Miscellaneous Hall.

The holding of the Yuanying Ceremony also means that the Ye family has legitimately become a Yuanying family. Being the gatekeeper of the Yuanying family is also a great honor. Naturally, many people are eager for this opportunity.

And if you perform well, the family will give you extra rewards.

Today, these affiliated forces are both attending a ceremony and making a pilgrimage. Ye Qingnan is guarding here, so naturally he cannot weaken the dignity of the Ye family.

When the cultivators heard Ye Qingnan speak, they were still a little afraid. Ye Qingnan himself was in the middle stage of foundation building, and there was a second-level golden-scaled beast beside him, which put a lot of pressure on them.

But they obviously don't know the mystery yet.

Soon, Wan Chengjie and a few others including Xu Changkong had landed on the stairs.

The steps of several people became noticeably heavier.

Even those few Qi-cultivating tribesmen immediately began to activate their spirit shields.

But after being urged, instead of being angry, he was filled with joy and climbed higher up the stairs.

"There is a secret behind the stairs!" The others who were watching immediately understood.

This was clearly an opportunity given to them by the Ye family, which made them feel a little ashamed and flattered.

The Zhang and Jia families had never given such an opportunity before.

The Ye family held a ceremony and there was this opportunity. In an instant, all the depression they had been waiting for the whole night disappeared.

When they got to the top of the stairs, they were all extremely surprised.

"This terrifying gravity, is this a method to strengthen the body?" someone asked in surprise.

"It's more than just strengthening the body. For cultivators who swallow the elixir, it can also condense spiritual energy. No wonder one person can only walk one circle. If they can walk once a day, the speed of cultivation will be much faster. It's really a great opportunity!"

"As expected of the Ye family. You guys should give it a try. The higher you go, the greater the pressure will be. Those physical cultivators will be blessed!" The cultivators spoke one by one in surprise.

It also made the monks, who were originally quite casual, become anxious.

And at this moment, the two golden-scaled beasts roared continuously, golden light raged, and their majesty was fully displayed.

Ye Qingnan's eyes also became stern.

They also remembered what Ye Qingnan said again, so they could only wait and slowly go up the stairs.

High in the sky, Ye Haicheng was also watching this scene. Next to Ye Haicheng were Ye Qingwen and other members of the Ye family, and Ye Jingcheng was naturally among them.

“Thinking back then, our Ye family climbed the ladder to Taiyi Sect. Today, our Ye family also has our own ladder!” Ye Qingwen couldn’t help but sigh at this moment.

The stairs in front of him were naturally arranged using the Ye family's Tiangang Body Tempering Array. The previous formation was relatively simple, but the current formation is more differentiated. Using the stairs can allow different cultivators to reach different heights.

When they can't hold on any longer, they can take the side ladder to climb up Tianying Peak.

Of course, this is the Tiangang Body Tempering Array for everyone to use. If it is the Body Tempering Array on the top of the mountain, there will still be spirit puppets arranged in it, which will be of greater help to the cultivators.

However, the Ye family would naturally not allow everyone to use that kind of formation.

"The Wan family still has one or two good talents!" Ye Haicheng couldn't help but speak at this moment.

However, he was not talking about the shock that the Ye family's formation brought to others. At this moment, he preferred to evaluate the people in the affiliated forces.

For the Ye family, the plate of Shahai is also extremely important. After all, it is related to the most basic development of the Ye family.

"What a pity, Wan Chengjie knows too much!" Ye Xingliu next to him also nodded.

If Wan Chengjie didn't know so much, marrying into the Ye family would be a very good idea.

At this moment, as everyone was watching, some monks were gradually losing their strength and had to retreat to the stairs nearby.

As soon as they came down the stairs, they were out of breath and started meditating on the spot to recover.

"This spiritual vein..." Some cultivators have already discovered something that makes them even more delighted.

That is, the spiritual vein here is a fifth-level spiritual vein. Even at the foot of the mountain, the concentration of spiritual energy is terrifying.

"Practice well and stop talking!" Someone nearby hurriedly stopped him. After all, this was the Ye family's territory, and many cultivators knew that their gifts were not enough for such a good opportunity.

The fact that they have this opportunity already shows that the Ye family is very magnanimous. If they still comment on the spiritual veins or make loud noises, they would be wrong.

Besides, the ceremony started at noon, so they didn't have much time to practice.

Next, more and more monks fell from the Tiangang Stairs to the stairs on both sides.

In the end, even Wan Chengjie, Xu Changkong and Ma Xiuyuan could only reach the last ten steps and could not go any further.

The three of them stopped on the stairs for a while, and when they felt it was getting late, they all fell down the Tiangang Stairs to both sides with regret on their faces.

Then he began to meditate.

Among them, Ma Xiuyuan is a physical cultivator. At this moment, his face is full of joy, and he has gained the most.

He even secretly made a decision that he would exchange the treasure.

He felt that the gifts he had given before were not enough!
At this moment, there are still many monks like Ma Xiuyuan.

Although they handed in a list of treasures, since many of their clansmen came this time, it was natural for them to hand in one or two more.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!" At this moment, above Tianying Peak, there was a roar like thunder.

At the same time, a huge golden lizard shadow a hundred feet long appeared in the sky.

It also completely shocked all the monks.

A beastly might unique to the Nascent Soul transformed into ripples that spread out.

At this moment, not only those independent cultivators were shocked, even the cultivators of the Ye Family were somewhat shocked. After all, not all members of the Ye Family saw the full appearance of the Dragon Ancestor.

Of course, there are more surprises!

"The auspicious time has arrived, the Nascent Soul Ceremony begins!" It was Ye Xingliu who spoke this time. His cultivation level at the early stage of Purple Mansion, coupled with his extraordinary temperament, made the families below start to speculate at this moment.

After all, for the cultivators below, every purple mansion needs to be remembered. As for the real people, they must be written into the family tree and must not be offended.

"The formation will be lifted temporarily. Everyone go to the mountain pavilion and wait first!" The Tiangang Body Tempering Formation also began to be lifted at this moment. All cultivators had to go to the stairs on both sides.

Although they were still a little reluctant to leave, the ceremony had arrived after all, and no matter how thick-skinned they were, they knew they couldn't stay any longer.

At this moment, they only regretted why they did not come here two days in advance to queue up and wait.

When the group of cultivators arrived at the entrance of another mountain pavilion, a cultivator from the Ye family was already there registering gifts.

Although the gifts have already been handed in once, many monks are now thinking about handing in more treasures.

Of course, the Qi-cultivating monks are still the first to register, and the gifts from these monks are mostly spiritual medicines.

They also knew that families like the Ye family had no shortage of treasures and talismans, so in addition to spiritual medicines, they would send some rare pill recipes and equipment diagrams to attract the attention of the Ye family.

And they also found that, as expected, if the gift was better, the Ye family would give a different jade box separately.

At this moment, a cultivator was pleasantly surprised to find that he had sent a relatively rare second-level poison-dispersing pill recipe, and the Ye family had returned the second-level Yunfu Spirit Tea.

You know, this kind of poison-dispersing pill is the least popular elixir in the world of immortal cultivation. In addition, the recipe can be copied, so using it as a gift is definitely a trick, but the Ye family also returned the spiritual tea.

This is enough to show the magnanimity of the Ye family this time.

While they were all pleasantly surprised, it was time for the Foundation Establishment cultivator to give his gifts!

"The affiliated family of Liuyun Oasis Liu family congratulates the Ye family's Earth Dragon Master for breaking through the fifth-level Nascent Soul, and specially presents ten second-level Yuanyuan apricots!"

"The affiliated family of Plum Fragrance Oasis Liu Family congratulates the Ye Family's Earth Dragon Master for breaking through the fifth-level Nascent Soul, and specially presents a second-level Tianyuan Snow Plum!"

……

"The affiliated family Xinhu Oasis Wan family congratulates the Ye family's Earth Dragon Master for breaking through to the fifth-level Nascent Soul stage. We specially present a third-level purple jade Scrophulariaceae and a second-level top-quality Luan Eagle egg!" Soon, they arrived at the Wan family, and as expected, the one gift Wan Chengjie had originally prepared turned into two.

"Sure enough!" Ma Xiuyuan looked at Wan Chengjie, his eyes full of fear.

Of course, he was also thankful at this moment because he brought all the things out this time!

At this moment, Ye Jingcheng was also a little surprised, because he thought Wan Chengjie would name Oasis after the name of the Wan family's former ancestral mountain.

But unexpectedly, Wan Chengjie changed the name to Xinhu Oasis.

"The affiliated family Mountain Oasis Xu family congratulates the Ye family's Earth Dragon Master for breaking through the fifth-level Nascent Soul, and specially presents the second-level top-grade spiritual materials, two whirlwind fruits, and three drops of hundred-year spiritual milk!"

When we arrived at the Xu family, the gifts they presented were also very nice.

Similarly, he also took out one more treasure.

Finally, it was the Ma family, waiting until Matthew walked past the pavilion.

He just let out a long sigh, looked at Xu Changkong and Wan Chengjie, and uttered a few words.

"The affiliated family Tianhe Green State Ma family congratulates the Ye family's Earth Dragon Master for breaking through the fifth-level Nascent Soul. We specially offer a third-level purple Yuan Lotus and the method of refining the fourth-level Death Substitute Sand Puppet Talisman!"

As he spoke these words.

Even the Ye family members were a little uneasy at this moment.

The method of using the sand puppet as a substitute for death is to refine the fourth-level talisman.

Even a Jindan family might not give such a generous gift.

At this moment, the Ma family sent it out.

"Sure enough, the Ma family should have secretly gathered a lot of high-level independent cultivators. These gifts are probably aimed at the return gifts from our Ye family!" Ye Haicheng couldn't help but speak at this moment.

"Hai Qi, Jing Ting, go and take a look. If the talisman is real, even if its material is rare, give him a portion of Tian Gang Qi!"

"Brother, do you want to give it quietly or announce it widely?" Ye Haiqi also asked.

"No, just give it to them quietly and let them guess. Besides, we don't have much Tiangang Qi. Letting them guess will be more effective than telling them everything!" Ye Haicheng shook his head.

"Yes!" The two responded excitedly at this moment.

If the Ye family had to say what inheritance is the least important, it would be the inheritance of talismans. After all, the Ye family itself came from the Beast Wasteland and had obtained the Secret Realm of the Pill Wasteland, where they had obtained many elixir recipes.

He also successively seized the inheritance of the Yun family, as well as the inheritance of the Jia family, the Zhang family and other families, but among these families, there were not many who were good at talismans.

If there is a fourth-level sand puppet talisman now, it will also be a great gain for the Ye family.

Even Ye Jingcheng's eyes narrowed slightly at this moment, as he thought of Tianshamen.

But he still didn't move.

As for the mountainside, Wan Chengjie and Xu Changkong's faces turned pale.

They had also heard about the Ye family's return gift. Now that the Ma family had taken out such a precious treasure, as long as it was real, they couldn't imagine what the generous Ye family would give in return.

"Brother Wan, Brother Xu, we should be the next ones to celebrate for Lord Long. Why don't we go together?" Ma Xiuyuan's face was extremely calm.

But both of them knew that this guy must be very happy.

As expected, the Ye family returned a storage bag to Ma Xiuyuan after a while.

Ma Xiuyuan's expression became even calmer.

But Wan Chengjie and Xu Changkong were not calm. The gifts they gave were all second-grade top-quality elixirs, which were useful for their cultivation.

This represents the generosity of the Ye family.

They all had bad guesses in their minds at this moment!

"Fellow Daoist Ma, you are really good at hiding yourself. You have made a big splash today. I'm afraid there is hope for Zifu!" Xu Changkong couldn't help asking before Wan Chengjie even opened his mouth.

"My two fellow Taoists, including the fellow Taoist from the Mu family, all have a chance. I, Ma, am just lucky!" Ma Xiuyuan answered ambiguously.

But it was this answer that made the Wan and Xu families more confident!

While everyone was thinking and shocked, members of the Ye family also began to present gifts!
"Ye Xingliu of the Ye Family's Purple Mansion congratulates Long Gong on his infant success and presents him with a third-grade mid-quality purple jade cold fruit!"

"Ye Haiyan from the Purple Mansion of the Ye Family congratulates Uncle Long on his Nascent Soul's great success, and specially presents him with a third-grade top-grade Yellow Lotus Earth Core!"

……

One by one, the Purple Palaces began to offer gifts, and the gifts were announced one by one.

There were also continuous fireworks in the sky, spiritual beasts were soaring in the air, and even spiritual rain was falling.

When he arrived at Ye Jingcheng's place, he even presented him with a fourth-grade mid-quality elixir!
"Ye Family Golden Pill Ye Jingcheng congratulates Dragon Ancestor on his successful Nascent Soul, and presents him with a fourth-grade, mid-quality Yellow Dragon Pill!"

At this moment, Dragon Ancestor had transformed into a middle-aged man in a yellow robe, and he was watching the ceremony with great excitement.

It actually has some disdain for those affiliated forces, after all, they are all just practicing Qi and building a foundation.

But it was still a bit surprising that the Ye family gave him a gift.

Moreover, the Ye family has several spiritual medicines presented as gifts by the Purple Mansion, which are exactly the spiritual materials for the Earth Dragon Pill collected by the Ye family, although it is still a little difficult to collect them all.

But at least it's a good start.

"Thank you, all my clansmen!" The Earth Dragon Demon King also spoke with great gratitude at this moment.

Once the offerings are completed, there will be a banquet.

This time, the Ye family not only served the black mushroom fish spiritual meal, but also the blood crocodile meal and the blood jade meal spiritual meal.

Of course, these high-level spiritual meals come from the Ye family and four first-rate foundation-building families.

Among these four families, there is actually a Mu family, which was deliberately separated from the Ye family.

Most of the spiritual meals were served on spiritual plates by the Ye family's spiritual beasts, such as the Jade Ring Rat, Green Fox, Black Rabbit, etc., which opened the eyes of the cultivators.

At this moment, they are also making all-out efforts to prepare spiritual fruits, spiritual wine and spiritual food.

Of course, this is not because they are narrow-minded, but because the Ye family’s preparations are too rich.

Many families hold ceremonies to make a profit, but in the case of the Ye family, they feel that the Ye family might lose money.

But they didn't have time to feel sorry for the Ye family, as they were already anxious because of the others' voracious eating, so they started eating one by one.

"Senior Ye, I have specially brought some juniors here. Why not have a competition to add some fun?" In the middle of the banquet, Wan Chengjie looked at a female cultivator in her early twenties behind him.

This female cultivator was naturally not a direct descendant of the Wan family, but she was also a fairy seedling girl from the oasis controlled by the Wan family. She was in her early twenties at the moment, but her cultivation was not weak, and she had already reached the sixth level of Qi training.

The most important thing is that she is extremely beautiful.

Next, other families also began to send out their members, but without exception, they were all female cultivators.

They were naturally aware of the Ye family's current policy, which encouraged monks to give birth to offspring.

Naturally, if the female cultivator performs well, she can marry into the Ye family.

They will have many advantages in the future.

Ye Haicheng, Ye Xingliu and Ye Jingfeng also watched all this calmly.

Naturally, they would not stop the major families from doing this. After all, among the families in this sea of ​​sand, the cultivators are these affiliated families and independent cultivators. If the Ye family wants all the cultivators to find companions, they must be among these families.

So Ye Haicheng also instructed his clansmen to give them some bonuses.

Of course, there were indeed tribesmen who took a fancy to these female monks.

However, since this was Dragon Ancestor's ceremony, naturally no one said much.

Even if it is a marriage alliance, it will not be discussed until this matter is settled.

The ceremony was finally completed successfully, and the Yuanying sermon was held the next day.

Although the Earth Dragon Demon King is a demon beast, the Ye family also prepared jade slips of their experience, and let the Earth Dragon Demon King speak to the jade slips.

As for whether the other affiliated families are willing or dare to listen, it is not the Ye family's concern.

As the sun set, the monks also went down the mountain. The red afterglow appeared even more fiery above the desert.

And today is definitely worth remembering by every member of the Ye family.

"Dragon Ancestor, I hope you can accompany me to the Forbidden Land of Souls in some day!" Before his death, Ye Jingcheng also sent a message to the Earth Dragon Demon King.

“Okay!” The Earth Dragon Demon King naturally agreed. The Ye family’s Nascent Soul Ceremony made it very satisfied. It did not make it feel like it was just a contracted spirit beast.

Moreover, the Ye family gave it all the gifts they received, and of course, they were all exchanged for the Ye family's contribution points.

It will be used to exchange for the Ye family to refine the fourth-level Earth Dragon Pill for it in the future.

When the Earth Dragon Demon King returned to the cave again, Ye Jingcheng also looked at Ye Haicheng.

The latter is currently examining the jade slip.

"Jingcheng, is this from Tianshamen?" Ye Haicheng also saw the confusion on Ye Jingcheng's face, so he handed the jade slip to Ye Jingcheng.

"It's very likely. I'll go down and ask!" Ye Jingcheng took the jade slip, took a look at it, and finally nodded.

Tianshamen was the original inheritance sect of the Sand Sea. He learned this from the memories of the monks of the Jia family.

Naturally, he had to ask clearly.

After looking at it for a while, Ye Jingcheng handed the talisman of the dead sand puppet to Ye Haicheng.

He was not good at talismans and naturally could not study them, so he just memorized the materials so that if he encountered them in the future, he would not miss them.

Then he headed towards the foot of the mountain.

He moved very quickly and soon reached a group of courtyards.

After choosing a larger courtyard, Ye Jingcheng entered it.

In the yard, Ma Xiuyuan had already been waiting there and had even brewed some spiritual tea.

"You knew I would come?" Ye Jingcheng was also a little confused.

"Senior Ye, I don't know, but I have already made up my mind to tell you everything, so I am prepared!" Ma Xiuyuan spoke cautiously and respectfully.

There was even a talisman hanging in the distance to ask for spiritual support.

At this moment, Ye Jingcheng couldn't help but think of his past, when he was also so cautious when facing those real people and real masters.

But I didn't expect that I have now become a real person who others need to receive with caution.

"Are you from Tianshamen?" Ye Jingcheng asked directly.

"No, I am a casual cultivator who just likes adventure. I once encountered a Tianshamen Golden Core inheritance cave, but unfortunately, many treasures have been destroyed. Apart from a talisman and the method of making a fourth-level spiritual talisman, there are only this technique jade slip and a token. Apart from that, there are no other special treasures!"

As he spoke, Ma Xiuyuan also took out a jade slip and a spirit tablet.

The jade slip is actually a martial arts method, but the method is not very advanced. It is only the top-grade Purple Sand Mad Scripture of the Xuan level, and it is a method for body cultivation!
There are only three words on the token: Tianshamen.

Ye Jingcheng also took the token, but soon discovered that this token was similar to the Ye family's token and had no special effects. If it was an algorithm machine, it could not even be considered a second-level magic weapon.

But when you touch it, there is still a different kind of caressing feeling.
