Myriad Spirits Immortal Clan

Ling Mountain, where Xiaoshan Prefecture's markets were located, was Xiaoshan Mountain. The entire Xiaoshan Mountain was majestic and unmatched, like a sharp sword piercing straight into the clouds.

Beside Xiaoshan Mountain were Puppet Mountain and Xuan Mountain.

These were the two spirit mountains controlled by the Xuan Puppet Sect.

Among them, Puppet Mountain was the core spirit mountain of the Xuan Puppet Sect, only disciples of the Xuan Puppet Sect's branch could settle there, while Xuan Mountain was a spirit mountain used for renting out cave dwellings.

On Xuan Mountain, the spiritual energy was still very dense, and coupled with its proximity to the market, it was naturally quite popular.

Most importantly, it was large enough.

If the Ye family had a spirit mountain in the future, they could do the same.

At this moment, the conference convened by Prefecture Lord Lu had already ended. Ye Jinghu and the other Golden Cores went to reminisce and held a Violet Palace Golden Core trading fair.

Ye Jingcheng followed True Monarch Xuan Puppet to Puppet Mountain.

The entire Puppet Mountain was filled with various spirit puppets.

Even Ye Jingcheng couldn't help but be a little surprised and curious.

Compared to the inheritance of Puppet Wasteland of the Eight Desolations Sect, these spirit puppets of the Xuan Puppet Sect were not inferior at all, and they also had their own characteristics, completely surpassing them in the eight categories of spirit puppets.

The overall level of cultivators in the Xuan Puppet Sect was also not bad. On this branch mountain alone, Ye Jingcheng saw more than twenty Violet Palaces, including four or five Golden Cores.

And if he hadn't sensed wrongly, there was also a strong spiritual energy fluctuation on the mountain, seemingly breaking through the Nascent Soul barrier.

The Xuan Puppet Sect's foundation still made Ye Jingcheng sigh in amazement.

Originally, he was a little dismissive. After all, the Ye family already had three Nascent Soul combatants, but he estimated that the Xuan Puppet Sect must have also hidden its core combat power.

Otherwise, if there was really only one Nascent Soul, they would not dare to occupy Wangqing Prefecture and Xiaoshan Prefecture.

Thinking further, I'm afraid the other three Nascent Soul forces also have many hidden strengths.

"Fellow Daoist Qianchen also understands spirit puppets?" True Monarch Xuan Puppet looked at Ye Jingcheng with a curious look and asked with a smile.

"I wouldn't say I understand, but I happened to have a few spirit puppets before, which helped me overcome several crises," Ye Jingcheng replied sincerely.

After reaching the top of the mountain and landing in front of a huge palace, the latter also invited Ye Jingcheng to enter.

The palace was very deserted and extremely simple, a stark contrast to the outside of the palace.

"Fellow Daoist Qianchen, I've made you laugh. This palace has always been empty."

"Fellow Daoist Xuan Puppet is a Supreme Elder of a sect, yet you are so frugal now, worthy of being learned by all of us. There's no question of laughter," Ye Jingcheng waved his hand.

After the other party took out spiritual tea, Ye Jingcheng also drank a cup, but didn't say anything else, only commented on the tea.

He also took out fourth-grade Mind Clearing Tea in return.

At this time, both of them were clear that whoever spoke first would always suffer some losses.

"Fellow Daoist Qianchen, have you seen Prefecture Lord after breaking through?" In the end, True Monarch Xuan Puppet took the lead to speak.

"I haven't had a chance yet," Ye Jingcheng shook his head, indicating that he had just broken through.

"Since you haven't seen him yet, then I will also inform Fellow Daoist Qianchen that every time there is one more Nascent Soul force in Southern Wilderness State, a Nascent Soul gathering will be held again. This gathering is both a gathering for us fellow Daoists and a gathering for the younger generation."

"And this gathering can determine the future choice of prefecture," True Monarch Xuan Puppet said.

As soon as these words were spoken, Ye Jingcheng also began to show great interest.

The Ye family is now developing Wangqing Prefecture, Xiaoshan Prefecture, and Tianshu Prefecture, and the layout is almost complete. If he were to go to other prefectures at this time, it would inevitably delay development.

"Of course, not every prefecture is arranged like this. Among the twelve prefectures, each Nascent Soul force can choose one fixed prefecture. Of course, this choice is not made by us, but by these prefecture lords."

"The remaining seven prefectures are the objects of our competition," True Monarch Xuan Puppet continued to explain in detail.

"At the same time, because there are two more prefectures, these two prefectures are naturally the most intense. Therefore, if you want to compete, you need the younger generation of Golden Cores to show enough combat power."

"What does Fellow Daoist Xuan Puppet mean?" Ye Jingcheng asked.

"My Xuan Puppet Sect will give up Wangqing Prefecture. We will cooperate fully in Xiaoshan Prefecture. After taking it down, the two forces will share it. As for whether Fellow Daoist wants to take Tianshu Prefecture, you are free to do so," True Monarch Xuan Puppet also stated his greatest purpose.

As soon as these words came out, Ye Jingcheng finally understood.

The contested prefectures were in a arena mode. Among the five Nascent Soul forces, at most only two Nascent Soul forces could occupy three prefectures.

At the same time, it was not them, these Nascent Souls, who participated in the arena, but the younger Golden Core descendants under two hundred years old, who would perform the ring-holding mode.

Ye Jingcheng had previously exposed two demon kings, and it was clear that True Monarch Xuan Puppet intended to cooperate with the Ye family.

After all, this kind of demon king, as long as it is not above the fifth rank, does not violate the rules and can be counted within the ring-holding competition.

Coupled with the spirit puppets of the Xuan Puppet Sect, it was not difficult for the two sects to obtain five prefectures.

"Fellow Daoist Xuan Puppet, among the other major forces, who is the strongest?" Ye Jingcheng did not directly agree, but asked again.

"Among the four major Nascent Soul forces, the strongest is naturally the Shantu Liu family, followed by the Flowing Cloud Gate, and the weakest should be the Xuanhu Jiang family."

"If Fellow Daoist wants Tianshu Prefecture, you may have to put in more effort."

"Of course, in my opinion, the same as Tianshu Prefecture is Qingjun Prefecture. There are also many teleportation arrays in its prefecture, and the Liu family's idea of controlling Qingjun Prefecture is not so strong. After all, during the ring-holding competition, swords and swords have no eyes, and all forces must recognize it," True Monarch Xuan Puppet continued to add.

The reminder was sincere enough.

Unlike the previous four Nascent Soul forces, everyone had three prefectures each. Now with five Nascent Soul forces, it was not so even.

Ye Jingcheng had just listened to Prefecture Lord Lu's plan, but he was clear about how much power a Nascent Soul force had in a prefecture.

The Nascent Soul force occupies half of most of the shops in the market, and the rent alone is a huge number.

In addition, you can open spirit mountains and set up clan lands next to the market.

This is much stronger than building a temporary market.

For the Ye family, it can be regarded as good news and some bad news.

The bad news may be the failure to compete for the prefecture, and finally end up with a few of the worst prefectures.

Of course, the good news is also very obvious. As long as you can compete successfully, this will earn much more spirit stones than opening shops and restaurants.

And the Nascent Soul forces are nothing more than protecting the market when there is danger in the market.

At the same time, when the prefecture lord launches the actions of the entire prefecture, they provide the greatest support.

If the Ye family can occupy Tianshu Prefecture, even the income from the teleportation array can be shared by the Ye family.

This is why True Monarch Xuan Puppet does not recommend Ye Jingcheng to compete, obviously thinking that even with the help of the demon king, Ye Jingcheng's Heavenly Sand Gate will not be the opponent of the Liu family.

At the same time, the Xuan Puppet Sect's abacus is also very good. With the relationship between the Ye family's Heavenly Sand Gate, Prefecture Lord Wang will definitely choose the Heavenly Sand Gate.

Therefore, True Monarch Xuan Puppet retreated to second place and wanted to share Xiaoshan Prefecture with the Ye family.

"I wonder how Fellow Daoist Xuan Puppet will share it?" Ye Jingcheng asked.

"Let's look at the performance of the ring-holding competition. Each force can send up to three people. The one with the best performance in holding the ring will occupy 60%," True Monarch Xuan Puppet replied.

"Okay, then it's a deal," Ye Jingcheng nodded after asking some more details.

Although he could use the demon king, the Ye family had a great chance of winning, but Ye Jingcheng was now interested in Tianshu Prefecture.

Being able to conspire with the Xuan Puppet Sect for one prefecture can also be much more stable.

As for one sect plotting three prefectures, the Ye family didn't want to be so high-profile yet.

But two and a half is not so conspicuous.

Of course, now the only question is how Prefecture Lord Wang, Prefecture Lord Xiao, and the Righteous Path Sect will view the Ye family.

If the Righteous Path Sect is also like the Penglai Sect, not enough to conspire with, then all of this will naturally be empty talk.

Since the other party has already tested so much, Ye Jingcheng would naturally not think that the person who came would be as easy to talk to as True Monarch Xuhuai.

"Fellow Daoist Xuan Puppet, I wonder how many halls and spirit peaks the Righteous Path Sect is divided into?" Ye Jingcheng finally thought for a while and asked.

"The Righteous Path Sect has no halls and no spirit peaks. It is an alliance, a small alliance under a large alliance," True Monarch Xuan Puppet's answer surprised Ye Jingcheng. He really didn't know these details before.

"There are currently five alliance factions within the Righteous Path Sect, including the Zheng Huang Sect, which mainly operates in Central Emperor State, the Blood Red Sect, which advocates fighting Xuantian, the Dao Zi Sect, which is close to the Ziyang Immortal Sect, the Baiyu Sect, which has the most cultivators, and the Qingmu Sect, which never takes sides."

"Prefecture Lord Wang, Prefecture Lord Xiao, and True Monarch Xuhuai are all from the Blood Red Sect, and the current Prefecture Lord Lu belongs to the Baiyu Sect..."

"And the faction where True Monarch Zhengyuan is located is the Zheng Huang Sect."

"Currently, the power of the Blood Red faction in the entire Righteous Path Sect is still not to be underestimated. Therefore, the Baiyu Sect has moved its mind. After all, the number of Nascent Souls still determines the power of the faction, of course, including the Nascent Souls of our affiliated forces. I can barely be considered a member of the Blood Red faction," True Monarch Xuan Puppet said.

Hearing this, Ye Jingcheng understood everything.

"Thank you for informing me, Fellow Daoist Xuan Puppet," Ye Jingcheng cupped his hands.

Saying that, he poured another cup of Mind Clearing Tea for True Monarch Xuan Puppet again:

"Fellow Daoist Xuan Puppet, do you know which elder Prefecture Lord Wang and Prefecture Lord Xiao are now receiving from the sect?" Ye Jingcheng continued to ask.

"It seems you have already guessed it," True Monarch Xuan Puppet couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"True Monarch Xuhuai has already entered seclusion. The one who came is True Monarch Xingyuan, also a great cultivator, and this one is also the current State Shepherd's master, so Fellow Daoist Ye, don't blame the two Prefecture Lords for being powerless..." True Monarch Xuan Puppet said.

As for what would happen next, True Monarch Xuan Puppet remained silent.

He didn't want to know how much strength the Heavenly Sand Gate had hidden, nor did he want to know what background the Heavenly Sand Gate had.

He only needed to wait for the result.

At least in his eyes, the Heavenly Sand Gate and even True Monarch Qianchen were worthy of goodwill and wooing.

As for the matters above, he couldn't control it.

Nor did he have the ability to control it.

When the setting sun outside the palace was about to fall, the dim red light also began to fade.

True Monarch Xuan Puppet finally waved his sleeves:

"In addition, if nothing unexpected happens, Prefecture Lord Xiao will serve as the State Shepherd of Nanyun State. If the Heavenly Sand Gate wants to develop in Nanyun State, it may be an opportunity."

As soon as these words came out, Ye Jingcheng nodded.

In any case, a gift still had to be prepared, it was just that facing True Monarch Xingyuan next might be slightly troublesome.
