#342 - Chen Ya disappears (thanks to 4936 book friends for the 100-coin reward)
Chapter 341: Chen Ya Disappears (Thanks to book friend 4936 for the 100 coin reward)
Inside the Ye family's room, three Five Poison Bees flew up from the edge of the bed. Their large stingers pointed upwards, and they seemed to have drunk spirit honey mixed with wine, spinning around before falling haphazardly onto the table.
With another buzzing sound, they flew through the wooden window and disappeared from the room.
About half an incense stick's time later, the Five Poison Bees flew back in through the window.
Ye Jingcheng by the bed finally woke up. He raised his hand and fed himself a Jade Soul Pill, feeling his divine soul slightly better.
"It seems that no matter the size of the divided soul, two pills are indeed the safe limit!" Ye Jingcheng couldn't help but sigh.
After refining the Three-Colored Pill and the Golden Scale Pill, he began cultivating a secret technique in his room.
At this moment, in his sea of consciousness, three inch-long white needles were being nurtured, which were the Soul Piercing Needles.
Besides this, within his spiritual platform, three Vajra Vine seeds had once again transformed into Azure Wood Spirit Seeds, shining brightly.
It was only after completing these secret techniques that consumed divine sense that he began to divide his soul to enhance his divine sense.
Because the soul division required by the Five Poison Bees was minimal, and the effect of soul fusion was not particularly high, he wanted to experiment with dividing the soul of three Five Poison Bees at once.
However, he didn't expect that the pressure of dividing three souls far exceeded his imagination, hence the staggering scene just now.
It should be known that at this moment, he was only at the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment, yet he possessed the divine sense of a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator. Even with the Jade Soul Pill, he barely managed to complete it.
However, the duration of ordinary Jade Soul Pills was not long. Ye Jingcheng took out the remaining Pill Pattern Jade Soul Pill.
As the pill entered his mouth, a surge of pure soul power poured in. Ye Jingcheng felt his divine soul lighten a lot in an instant, and the intense pain began to subside.
The quality of Jade Soul Pills with and without pill patterns differed greatly. Ye Jingcheng didn't dare to delay the medicinal effects and quickly began cultivating the Heavenly Soul Technique.
Another three hours passed in this way, and the medicinal effects of the Jade Soul Pill gradually dissipated. Ye Jingcheng's divine soul injury had recovered to about seventy or eighty percent. The rest required time to recuperate.
During the soul division, he was prone to making mistakes in alchemy and cultivation. The auction was half a month later, which was why he chose this time to divide his soul, minimizing the impact on his cultivation.
He got up and walked outside. The dazzling purple light made his eyes slightly unaccustomed. A month and a half of seclusion had made him rarely go out.
However, the next moment, he suddenly noticed a figure in the courtyard constantly tending to the Black Cloud Flowers.
The figure wore a spotless gray-white Daoist robe. Upon closer inspection, it was Ye Jingteng.
"Brother, since our parting in the secret realm, Jingcheng thought you had broken through and gone into seclusion again!" Ye Jingcheng said, inviting Ye Jingteng to the nearby stool.
"Third Uncle is selling spirit pills on the second floor, Uncle Xingyi has been quite crazy about alchemy recently, and you are in seclusion. I have nothing to do, so I'm just looking at the Black Cloud Flowers," Ye Jingteng waved his hand and sat down beside him. However, the smile on his face indicated that Ye Jingcheng's words were extremely pleasing to him.
He believed that although he had not broken through, the recent battles had greatly enhanced his strength.
The two sat down at the stone table.
Ye Jingcheng began to brew Cloud Float Tea, while a look of grief appeared on Ye Jingteng's face.
"Jingcheng, I've heard about Jingyu's matter. Alas, if I had known this would happen, I should have insisted on Jingyu joining the sect!"
"Brother, you don't have to blame yourself. For us cultivators, the affairs of the secret realm are meant to be fought for. With your reminders, Brother, Third Uncle and I have avoided many dangers. As for Fourth Brother, perhaps his Dao affinity was too shallow," Ye Jingcheng said.
He wasn't lying. He was indeed grateful to Ye Jingteng.
In the secret realm, whether it was Senior Brother Xu reminding them about the Illusion Peak, or actively standing with the Ye family when confronting the Kong family at the entrance of the secret realm.
Ye Jingcheng still somewhat approved of him.
However, approval was approval, but some matters of the family still couldn't be known by Ye Jingteng.
"Jingcheng, speaking of this, I suddenly remembered that Xu Yinglong has been inquiring about the Ye family's affairs recently. You should be careful when you return to Lingyun Peak!" Ye Jingteng suddenly said upon hearing this.
Ye Jingcheng was also stunned upon hearing this.
However, he quickly remembered Mo Hongwen and the other two from the Mo family.
After all, they had personally seen Mo Hongwen plotting to ambush him, and they hadn't left the secret realm.
Perhaps those two hadn't appeared, and Xu Yinglong, without hesitation, robbed the Mo family brothers.
Such things were too common in the secret realm.
However, what Ye Jingcheng was worried about was whether Xu Yinglong had obtained some information from the Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Mo family.
"Thank you, Brother. I refined a few Jade Soul Pills this time!" Ye Jingcheng directly took out a jade bottle.
Inside the jade bottle were five Jade Soul Pills.
Seeing the five Jade Soul Pills, a light flashed in Ye Jingteng's eyes.
However, he still waved his hand. As a sect disciple, he had his demeanor.
"Brother, these spirit pills are what I use to exchange for spirit herbs and materials. I've already felt bad for troubling you before!"
"One of these is a gift to you, Brother. As for the remaining three, I'll have to trouble you to help me find some spirit materials!" Ye Jingcheng took out a jade slip.
The jade slip contained Shi Fang's records of the ore needed for Shi Ling's advancement.
"To be honest, Brother, I used to think that the combat power of Foundation Establishment cultivators should be about the same. Only after entering the secret realm did I realize the vast difference. Therefore, I'm thinking of refining a defensive magic weapon."
"Jingcheng, the gap between cultivators cannot be measured by cultivation level and realm. There are too many cases of sect disciples killing family cultivators across realms. Therefore, you still need to diligently cultivate secret techniques," Ye Jingteng began to lecture after hearing Ye Jingcheng's words, also accepting the jade slip.
His appearance of taking responsibility for it reassured Ye Jingcheng.
Ye Jingteng then shared some combat experience. Seeing that Ye Jingcheng was listening attentively, he said again:
"Jingcheng, I heard that you will inherit the position of family head at the end of the year's clan meeting. Brother suggests that you can send some more clansmen to the Taiyi Sect. Now, Brother has some connections within the Taiyi Sect!" Ye Jingteng said.
Ye Jingcheng nodded upon hearing this, but he neither agreed nor refused.
Instead, he poured a cup of spirit tea for Ye Jingteng.
"Brother, you forgot about the beast tide a few years ago. Many mortals died, and there probably aren't many good immortal seedlings left," Ye Jingcheng sighed.
Hearing this, Ye Jingteng immediately sighed and didn't say much, obviously knowing that he had said the wrong thing.
He continued to chat for a while before taking his leave.
Ye Jingcheng watched him leave, a sigh in his eyes.
But soon, he checked the Black Cloud Flowers. After seeing that there were no marks or spirit insects left behind, he entered the pavilion.
The business of Ye Family's Chuye Pavilion has been extremely hot in recent days.
And the Ye family members, led by Ye Jingyun and Ye Xingyi, were also putting their all into alchemy this time.
Chuye Pavilion has its own underground fire room, which is what makes Taichang Fang City different from Taihang Fang City.
"Third Uncle, Big Brother just came," Ye Jingcheng walked up to the second floor. Ye Xingliu on the second floor had just finished serving someone.
"I know," Ye Xingliu nodded. He didn't go to see Ye Jingteng because he had advised Ye Jingteng not to go to the sect back then.
"Recently, refine as many pills as you can. There's a high probability that there will be a third-order high-grade Cloud Silver Iron Crystal at this auction. The family must obtain it," Ye Xingliu said.
Ye Jingcheng nodded upon hearing this.
After looking at the store's situation, he also learned about the spirit stone situation from Ye Jingyong.
He had participated in the auction before and knew that Foundation Establishment Pills were usually between 10,000 and 20,000 spirit stones.
But after this secret realm, many Foundation Establishment cultivators died.
At that time, the price of Foundation Establishment Pills might even reach 30,000.
After all, the families that could come out of the secret realm had all obtained a considerable fortune.
Among them, Ye Xingyi and Ye Jingli had gathered enough spirit stones. Although Ye Jingyong hadn't gathered enough, his wife, Chu Yanliu, had sent him thousands of spirit stones from home. Adding his contribution points, he exchanged for some spirit stones, which was barely enough.
Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng was relieved.
"Seventh Brother, Chen Ya's husband is here," Just then, a middle-aged man walked in from the store entrance, and Ye Jinghao trotted over.
Ye Jingcheng was a little surprised to see this.
Chen Ya was a rogue cultivator who attracted customers for their store and had been cooperating with the Ye family.
"Senior Ye!" Chen Ya's husband was named Xiao Ming, also a rogue cultivator, but his cultivation was much better than Chen Ya's, reaching the eighth layer of Qi training.
He had been seeking opportunities in the market to join a sect.
However, he had failed every time.
"Fellow Daoist Xiao, what's the matter?" Ye Jingcheng led the latter to the front yard, set up a formation, and asked.
"Senior Ye, Chen Ya is missing. I hope Senior can help find her!" Xiao Ming knelt down directly.
This kneeling filled Ye Jingcheng with doubts.
"Isn't Chen Ya always working as a guide in the market?" Ye Jingcheng was a little puzzled.
"Senior Ye, Chen Ya has always been normal, but more than two months ago, she suddenly became a little strange in her behavior, and her eyes were unfocused. At first, I thought she had a heart demon recently, but her behavior became more and more strange. I looked for many folk remedies, but it was difficult to solve. A month ago, I found a Foundation Establishment senior, and Chen Ya disappeared without a trace!" Xiao Ming said.
Upon hearing this, Ye Jingcheng frowned deeply.
The soul division of the Heavenly Soul Technique is divided into two parts. Now it seems that the remaining corpse Daoist soul division is on Chen Ya. This made Ye Jingcheng feel unusually tricky in an instant.
No wonder the corpse Daoist didn't kill Chen Ya, because it was absolutely impossible for Chen Ya to have an accident in the market.
"Don't worry, Chen Ya works for my Ye family. I will inquire and investigate this matter. You should record Chen Ya's affairs in detail in the jade slip," Ye Jingcheng said.
However, he was a little unsure at the moment.
Because the auction was imminent, and the Cloud Silver Iron Crystal had appeared, the Ye family would definitely not be able to back down.
And the corpse Daoist had most likely taken the Bone Transformation Pill and changed his appearance. It was too normal for Xiao Ming not to be able to find him.
The only thing he was worried about was whether the corpse Daoist had any unusual means to inquire about the news in the secret realm.
He cultivated the Heavenly Soul Technique, and the various soul divisions could not share memories before they met.
But he was afraid of other means in the cultivation world. He had seen a lot of the methods of demonic cultivators now.
So, if possible, he must kill the last clone of the corpse Daoist as soon as possible.
