Myriad Spirits Immortal Clan

Chapter 442: Reopening Two Hidden Sites, Earth Dragon Probes (Two-in-One, Seeking Monthly Tickets!)

The soft moonlight stone emitted a warm red glow under the warm-colored paper lampshade, illuminating the entire attic with an exceptionally cozy atmosphere.

This was the third floor of the Ye family's treasure pavilion.

In front of a huge, long table, cultivators were once again gathered.

Behind the table, the previous spirit map had been replaced by Ye Jingcheng.

The former spirit map represented the Ye family's ambition for the Yan Kingdom, while the spirit map Ye Jingcheng had now put up depicted the Taihang Mountains.

Previously, due to the existence of Hidden Peak, the Ye family could be said to have a thorough understanding of the Taihang Mountains, but now that Hidden Peak had retreated, the Ye family had to continue to deepen their control over the Taihang Mountains.

At the same time, within the Yan Kingdom, it was indeed not suitable for the Ye family to rise rapidly at present.

It could be said that Ye Jingcheng was following the Ye family's old path.

But for Ye Jingcheng, it was the most effective method of improvement.

However, unlike the many experts of Hidden Peak, the Ye family's Lingyun Peak clansmen still needed to proceed cautiously and plan for the long term.

"Alright, everyone is almost here. This time, we will be determining the family's direction for the future!" Ye Jingcheng looked around the table, noticing the increased number of people, and a look of joy appeared in his eyes.

These new faces were all clansmen who had broken through to the seventh level of Qi training in recent years.

Counting Ye Jingyun's breakthrough to Foundation Establishment, the strength of the Ye family's Lingyun Peak cultivators had greatly increased recently.

The number of Foundation Establishment cultivators had increased to six, and the number of late-stage Qi training cultivators had increased to thirty-two. This number was already extremely high.

It should be known that the Ye family's Lingyun Peak had a total of less than one hundred and eighty clansmen, many of whom were newly advanced immortal seedlings.

When other families had this number of clansmen, they would have, at most, a dozen late-stage Qi training cultivators.

"I will be entering seclusion for a period of time. The following affairs will be managed by Ye Jingyun, the head of the Alchemy Hall, with the assistance of Uncle Ye Xingyu, the head of the Spirit Talisman Hall, and Uncle Ye Xingshui, the head of the Formation Hall. Ye Jingyu of the Jing generation will be the head of the Spirit Plant Hall, and Ye Jinghu will be the head of the Beast Hunting Hall. The remaining halls will remain unchanged!" Ye Jingcheng began to announce the appointments of the various halls.

For this change, most people were not surprised. It was perfectly normal for Ye Xingqun and Ye Xinghan to step down, after all, they were old and had broken through to Foundation Establishment, requiring them to hide.

Among them, Ye Jinghu's appointment was the most unexpected.

Ye Jingcheng looked around, not surprised by the crowd's discussion. Of course, he would not explain.

The number and length of the Beast Veins were actually not clear to each other. In the Ye family, although Beast Veins and talent were important, more emphasis was placed on ability for various positions.

His appointment of Ye Jinghu as the head of the Beast Hunting Hall was to train Ye Jinghu's ability. In the Ye family's high-level and Xing generation, they were actually more optimistic about Ye Jinghu.

But whether Ye Jinghu could grasp it, whether he could win the recognition of other families with his own ability to act, that was Ye Jinghu's own business.

And pressure was definitely going to be given to Ye Jinghu.

"Since there are no objections, let's talk about the main affairs of the family!"

"First, the family will begin preparing a new restaurant, with the goal of opening a restaurant in Taichang Square City. The One Leaf Pavilion there is very large, but before I leave seclusion, we will only release the news and not open for business!" Ye Jingcheng solemnly spoke.

The matter of opening a restaurant had been planned for a long time, but everyone was worried that the Ye family did not have a Purple Mansion to support them.

After all, the rapid contraction of forces by the Jin and Kong families had given other families opportunities.

But Ye Jingcheng's current meaning was obviously to show the strength of the Purple Mansion after he left seclusion.

Then the Ye family could naturally control the restaurant in Taichang Square City.

Naturally, they were overjoyed.

After all, now that the Ye family was earning spirit stones, it would benefit them and the Qing generation clansmen of the next generation.

"Second, the family needs to open two Spirit Beast Valleys in the Kongling Mountains. One will vigorously cultivate Mountain Devouring Rats and Maolin Pigs and Cloud Horn Deer to provide support for the family's meat supply, and the second Spirit Beast Valley will vigorously cultivate spirit insects!" Ye Jingcheng continued to look around and speak.

This time, the extermination of the spirit locusts made Ye Jingcheng see the potential of spirit insects. The black wood ants, big-headed ants, and spirit-seeking bees that the Ye family had cultivated before were actually not bad, but they had not been researched to a certain extent.

Of course, more importantly, Ye Jingcheng had also obtained many golden light spirit locust larvae, and these larvae could not be hatched and cultivated on Lingyun Peak.

Opening a new Spirit Beast Valley was imperative.

It also happened that Ye Xingqun was free and could be responsible for a new beast hideout on Lingyun Peak.

The long and narrow mountain range of the Kongling Mountains could provide terrain for the Ye family to keep secrets.

It was connected to Earth Dragon Valley in the back, and it could face Lingyun Peak in the front.

The most important thing was that even if someone wanted to discover the teleportation array of Earth Dragon Valley through the Kongling Mountains, there was also a most suitable warning line.

The Ye family was a beast-controlling family, and all the members were on the surface, so it didn't matter even if they were exposed.

Unlike the previous Hidden Peak, there were as many as seven in the Taihang Mountains, and they were all cultivators who were rumored to have died.

Of course, Ye Jingcheng did not decide on the location, but pointed to the spirit map behind him.

It was up to all the family cultivators to decide.

After everyone took turns speaking, they finally chose two places.

One beast valley as a bright valley, and one insect valley as a dark valley.

Ye Xinghan went to guard the beast valley, and Ye Xingqun went to guard the insect valley.

Equivalent to the Ye family reopening two small hidden sites.

"Patriarch, the Wan family has organized a spirit beast exchange conference?" Ye Xingqun spoke again.

This exchange conference was actually going to be held long ago.

It was only postponed because of the insect plague.

Now the insect plague has been over for two months.

"Uncle Xingqun, regarding the Wan family, our strategy now needs to be changed. We can't get too close to the Wan family now!" Ye Jingcheng repeatedly said.

The current situation has changed again. Taiyi Sect is no longer at a disadvantage, and it is time for Taiyi Sect to clean up internal troubles.

At the moment, it is naturally up to the Wan family to deal with that awkward relationship. It would be unwise for the Ye family to join in now.

It is easy to be apportioned hatred.

"The spirit beast exchange conference, delay it a bit. If it can't be delayed, let Sixth Brother go and try to keep a low profile!" Ye Jingcheng was silent for a while, and then added.

He and Wan Hongchang had a good relationship, and he also participated in the Qingling Chamber of Commerce's night market last time.

But friendship is friendship, he can't put it on the surface, let alone the safety of two families, tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people.

The Wan family has experienced the Zhenhuang incident, and it is clear that it is either a beast plague or a sword plague.

It would be a big problem if Taiyi Sect didn't take action when it was free.

He even suspected that under heavy pressure, the Wan family still had some problems with whether they were of one heart and one mind with Taiyi Sect.

"In addition, the Yuan family can also be appropriately suppressed!" Ye Jingcheng said again.

When the situation is not clear enough, standing on the side of the more powerful party is easier to reduce mistakes.

The Ye family is now completely tied to Taiyi Illusion Peak.

Knowing that the Yuan family has ulterior motives, following the thinking of Taiyi Sect and suppressing the Yuan family is absolutely no problem.

Ye Jingli and others nodded when they heard this.

After everyone dispersed, Ye Jingcheng and Ye Jingli, Ye Xingqun, the family's current highest combat power, spoke and talked in detail one by one, and after communicating all the details and response plans.

He was finally relieved.

… …

Summer came extremely suddenly, and terrible rainstorms fell non-stop.

In the wilderness and mountains, many water moths appeared again.

The entire Lingyun Peak was shrouded in a misty world.

At this moment, on Lingyun Peak, a figure quickly fell from the mountain peak, and in an instant, disappeared into the main peak.

After crossing the mountain range near Lingyun Peak, a figure gradually appeared.

It was Ye Jingcheng, wearing a five-colored robe.

At this time, he also took out a spirit boat, but it was not the second-order Xuan Ying Qingyun Boat, but another spirit boat, and quietly entered the mountains.

On the spirit boat, the Jade Ring Rat perked up its ears, listening.

In the sky above, the Golden Falcon, thousands of feet in the air, overlooked everything from afar.

After a long while, the misty rain weather began to darken further.

Ye Jingcheng knew it was getting late.

But he still didn't stop, continuing towards the Earth Dragon Valley.

Nowadays, the Earth Dragon Valley could be considered half of the Ye family's territory, because the high-level demon race great demons there wouldn't do anything to the Ye family.

With the Earth Dragon Demon King in control, the Ye family truly felt no pressure here.

"Chirp!" A huge, drawn-out cry came, and the Golden Falcon had obviously discovered something.

In the distance, a chameleon lizard appeared, and Ye Jingcheng was greatly shocked because his divine sense hadn't even detected this chameleon lizard great demon.

Yet, it had truly arrived before him.

This was enough to show the opponent's formidable concealment abilities.

Ye Jingcheng took a step back, extremely wary.

In the Taihang Mountains, anything could happen, and Ye Jingcheng naturally wouldn't completely trust a great demon.

Seeing Ye Jingcheng retreat,

the chameleon lizard great demon's abdomen began to bulge, emitting a human voice:

"Come with me!"

With this voice, and the latter not revealing any ferocity, Ye Jingcheng believed it a little.

But at the same time, he still used the family token to transmit a message, and only after receiving a response did he completely relax.

However, halfway there, Ye Jingcheng was still a little strange as to why Ye Haicheng didn't have the Turtle Ancestor come.

Instead, he had a chameleon lizard great demon come.

Soon, Ye Jingcheng went around from behind a huge, towering mountain.

Seeing this mountain, Ye Jingcheng clicked his tongue in wonder; on that side of the mountain, the misty rain was hazy, while this side was a desert Gobi.

The two were like a pair of polar-opposite, age-old famous paintings.

Or rather, this kind of environment was more suitable for the Earth Dragon Valley's forces.

And in the Gobi, many lizards and pangolin spirit beasts could already be seen, and there were also quite a few ordinary Golden Scale Beasts.

It's just that among these spirit beasts, not many showed signs of treasured light.

This was related to their age, and also because those guarding the valley entrance didn't have high potential themselves.

"The Demon King wants to see you!" Just then, Ye Jingcheng's family token transmitted a message.

The message was from Ye Haicheng, making Ye Jingcheng especially surprised.

The Earth Dragon Demon King actually wanted to summon him alone; perhaps this was the reason why the chameleon lizard great demon had come to greet him this time.

The Earth Dragon Demon King was considered half of the Ye family's spirit beast and had always been in contact with the Ye family.

But at this moment, Ye Jingcheng still hesitated.

Although Ye Haicheng had also transmitted a message to him,

it was, after all, the demon king's lair.

Many Violet Palace great demons could kill him.

Moreover, there was also a fourth-order demon king.

"What, does the family head of a beast-taming family only have this much courage?" Just then, an extremely unfamiliar voice transmission rang out in his mind.

This scene also made Ye Jingcheng feel a little flustered.

But on the surface, he still remained as calm as usual and didn't make any movements.

He had even already prepared to release the Palm Lake Pearl at any time and then escape using Water Evasion.

In this desert Gobi, without the Palm Lake Pearl, his Water Evasion couldn't unleash its power at all.

But as long as he escaped to the other side of the mountain and entered the misty rain weather, Ye Jingcheng would have the upper hand at that time.

… …

And just at this time, inside the valley, two figures stood side by side, one wearing a golden Daoist robe and the other wearing a cyan-colored magnificent dress.

The one in the cyan-colored magnificent dress was Ye Haicheng, and the golden figure was the Earth Dragon Demon King.

"This family head is really cautious; Haicheng, it seems you have to come forward!" The Earth Dragon Demon King looked at Ye Haicheng with a slightly playful expression.

"The family has been severely suppressed in recent years, making Dragon Lord laugh; but hiding one's clumsiness and being careful are not necessarily bad qualities for a cultivator," Ye Haicheng also nodded, then walked towards the outside of the valley.

Leaving the Earth Dragon Demon King looking at his back, nodding inexplicably.

Soon, Ye Jingcheng, led by Ye Haicheng, also entered the valley.

Inside the valley, Ye Haicheng still didn't say anything.

Instead, he only told Ye Jingcheng that the teleportation array was inside the Earth Dragon Valley.

Ye Jingcheng didn't hear a voice transmission, nor did he hear a reminder or see a look in his eyes.

This made him feel extremely strange.

But it was precisely this strange atmosphere that made Ye Jingcheng think a lot in his heart.

According to Ye Haicheng's mind, it was impossible for him to aim at nothing.

Even at this moment, Ye Jingcheng had a feeling of being tested.

It was just like back in the market, without any hints, relying entirely on himself.

And the one testing people seemed to be the Earth Dragon Demon King.

Ye Jingcheng was a little stunned; if that was the case, then his caution just now might be a deduction.

But he quickly shook his head; no matter what, it didn't mean much to him; he couldn't kill the great demons of Earth Dragon Valley, so let his Second Ancestor bear the Demon King's test.

With a plan in his heart, Ye Jingcheng walked even more calmly.

Glancing in the distance at the middle-aged man wearing a golden robe instantly burdened him with a terrifying aura.

Clearly, the Golden Dragon Demon King could transform into human form.

"Demon King-sama!" Ye Jingcheng cupped his hands.

But then he heard the latter say:

"I'm temporarily withdrawing from the family; it seems even the family head doesn't recognize this King!"

As soon as these words came out, Ye Jingcheng's expression changed; he knew he might have said the wrong thing.

"This is Dragon Lord!" Ye Haicheng's voice transmission came, as a reminder.

"Demon King-sama misunderstood; when the Demon King returns to the family, he will naturally still be Dragon Ancestor!" After hearing this, Ye Jingcheng quickly replied in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.

Now that the Earth Dragon Demon King wanted to draw a line, then Ye Jingcheng would draw a line.

He felt that the relationship between the two sides was very subtle now.

The Earth Dragon Demon King should have something to ask of the Ye family.

Otherwise, he would never be like this, simply because of past favors.

It should be known that it was also the Earth Dragon Demon King who said that the three opportunities had been used up back then; and now it was also the Earth Dragon Demon King who came to test him and probe him.

Logically speaking, the Ye family should be cautious and take out treasures to curry favor with the Earth Dragon Demon King.

Ye Jingcheng frantically thought in his heart, and soon, he thought of the Ye family's second and third soul infusions.

Those spirit beasts themselves couldn't obtain the blessing of the Beast Taming Pagoda and could only do so through the Ye family members.

And this Earth Dragon Demon King, in the late Golden Core stage, was just a little away from breaking through to become a Nascent Soul Demon Emperor, and it was highly likely that he wanted to infuse his soul to enhance his soul power.

After all, there would never be any problems with the demon beast's physical body in terms of breakthroughs.

Only the soul, which was why Ye Jingcheng's spirit beasts were able to break through a small level after receiving the blessing of divine soul power.

The way the Earth Dragon Demon King was sizing up Ye Jingcheng now was extremely like he was observing Ye Jingcheng to see if he had the qualifications to tame him.

At this moment, he even released a faint spiritual pressure.

And Ye Haicheng also became nervous; the reason why he didn't speak naturally had his considerations; in his eyes, Ye Jingcheng was a family member who could even contract with a wood demon.

He also looked forward to the Earth Dragon Demon King actively bewitching Ye Jingcheng to form a blood pact and tame him.

In this way, even if Second Ancestor Ye Xuecang broke through and failed to reconcile with the Earth Dragon Demon King and establish beast taming, Ye Jingcheng could continue it.

This was his purpose today.

Ye Jingcheng also felt it at this moment, but the Earth Dragon Demon King was obviously underestimating him a little, and the aura he released wasn't strong.

At this moment, Ye Jingcheng couldn't help but begin to daydream, and the thought of letting the Earth Dragon Demon King form a blood pact with him sprouted in his heart.

After all, his treasure book could turn a blood pact into a soul pact, and this kind of transformation was definitely a more powerful existence than the Beast Taming Pagoda.

A blood pact might have the possibility of backlash due to the difference in cultivation between the two sides, but a soul pact would absolutely not have it.

Ye Jingcheng had verified this point from the Golden Falcon.

Therefore, as soon as he thought of this, Ye Jingcheng couldn't help but feel his heart pounding.
