Myriad Spirits Immortal Clan

The warm sun of dusk illuminated the market.

Casting long, drawn-out shadows of the pavilions.

Inside the Ye family's restaurant, in Ye Jingcheng's room.

With a 'dong, dong, dong' sound, the door opened, and a burly man with a flushed face and reeking of alcohol entered the room.

As soon as he entered, he closed the door, and the drunkenness on his face completely vanished.

Inside the room, there were two other cultivators; one was identical to the burly man, and the other was Ye Jingcheng himself.

Ye Jingcheng waved his hand, and several streams of spiritual light flowed, forming a spiritual barrier that isolated the room.

One of the burly men walked strangely into the body of the other, clearly a doppelganger.

After consuming a pill, that figure reverted to Ye Jingyun's appearance.

"Patriarch, is such caution necessary this time?"

"It is. There's a possibility that the Azure Spirit Token bought in Taihang Market is a setup!" Ye Jingcheng shook his head; he was dealing with stolen goods this time and couldn't afford to leave any traces.

Moreover, Ye Jingcheng didn't plan to sell any more of Qing Kongying's treasures this time; however, he might selectively sell some of the Yun family's items.

He even decided not to exchange for the third-tier wood material he was looking for previously.

This time, he would only exchange for the essence blood needed for the third-tier Peng Fish Pill or some rare pill formulas.

He planned to buy the remaining treasures at the auction.

After all, the auction was held in Taichang Market, but the Azure Spirit Trade Fair was held outside the market.

The difference between the two lay in safety.

"Take these Azure Spirit Tokens and sell them, but keep one!" Ye Jingcheng didn't plan to let Ye Jingli and Ye Jingyun go.

This muddy water was no longer something Foundation Establishment cultivators could wade into.

It would be better to sell them all at the street stalls.

Currently, many Purple Mansion cultivators would want to buy Azure Spirit Tokens.

Although the Azure Spirit Trade Fair was approaching, the price of Azure Spirit Tokens had risen significantly.

This was because most Purple Mansion and Golden Core cultivators had the same idea as Ye Jingcheng, all wanting to create confusion; some Azure Spirit Tokens had changed hands seven or eight times.

This way, even if the Azure Spirit Chamber of Commerce wanted to secretly use tricks, they would be helpless.

After all, there were too many high-level cultivators and high-status individuals this time; if something went wrong, the Azure Spirit Chamber of Commerce's reputation, accumulated over many years, would be ruined.

Ye Jingcheng took the Azure Spirit Tokens, consumed a Bone Transformation Pill, and changed into a Spirit Isolation Robe. After Ye Jingyun checked him over and confirmed there were no issues, he disappeared from the restaurant.

The streets of the market were crowded with cultivators, all uniformly wearing Spirit Isolation Robes.

Some cultivators emerged from the street stalls, while others came out of various restaurants.

Without exception, they were all extremely vigilant.

As the last ray of light disappeared from the horizon.

The Azure Spirit Tokens began to glow with an azure spiritual light, indicating a hill outside the city.

Ye Jingcheng followed the Azure Spirit Token's instructions out of the city.

Unlike the last time, when it was just Ye Jingcheng and Ye Xingliu.

This time, there were quite a few people flying towards the same location as Ye Jingcheng.

Not to mention, the Azure Spirit Chamber of Commerce had a large number of starting points each time they organized a night market.

When he arrived at the hill indicated by the Azure Spirit Token, there were already a dozen people there.

At this time, the second instruction from the Azure Spirit Token had not yet appeared, indicating that the time had not yet arrived.

Ye Jingcheng was not in a hurry; he glanced sideways, assessing the surrounding cultivators.

Each of them was wearing a Spirit Isolation Robe; some completely concealed their aura, while others only revealed a little.

But they only revealed their cultivation aura to let others know they were not to be trifled with.

Ye Jingcheng's aura at this moment was naturally that of a Purple Mansion cultivator, displaying not other attributes, but the lightning attribute, obtained from the Hidden-Winged Lightning Rhinoceros Insect he had tamed.

This was the true way to be foolproof.

He actually wanted to use the Peng Fish's aura, but the Peng Fish was currently only at the late stage of the second tier, still a bit away from the peak of the second tier. If he really sold so many treasures, even if he wasn't Ye Jingcheng, or the person the Azure Spirit Chamber of Commerce was looking for, he might not be able to safely reach Taichang Market.

"It's starting!" Just then, someone said in a deep voice, and Ye Jingcheng also sensed the Azure Spirit Token in his hand begin to glow.

A new address appeared inside.

All the cultivators flew towards a direction again.

Even so, everyone kept a great distance from each other.

Few were traveling in groups of three or four.

Every cultivator had secrets. This time, Ye Jingcheng estimated that Foundation Establishment and Purple Mansion cultivators were the main force; there would be Golden Core cultivators, but definitely not many. The final night market trade fair probably required the cultivation of a Purple Mansion cultivator to enter.

This batch of a dozen people pouring into the market didn't cause much of a stir.

Even the chaotic noise didn't increase much.

Ye Jingcheng went directly towards the street selling special spiritual materials and spirit beasts.

The cultivators on this street were much more active, it seemed those selling these treasures were more talkative.

After just walking around, Ye Jingcheng saw several treasures that caught his attention.

He squatted down and asked:

"How are these Thousand-Legged Frost Centipedes sold?"

In front of Ye Jingcheng, there were four Thousand-Legged Frost Centipede larvae, their aura not very strong, only at the mid-stage of the first tier, but on Ye Jingcheng's Treasure Book, there were three layers of treasure light.

And they could evolve into Six-Winged Frost Centipedes.

If fully cultivated, they could potentially become top-tier third-tier great demon frost centipedes.

Although Ye Jingcheng himself had the Lightning Rhinoceros Insect and didn't have the energy to raise them, he could give them to the family.

Even if the family didn't want them, he could give them to Chu Yanqing.

After all, Chu Yanqing was a water-attribute cultivator, and she would be a good match for this frost centipede.

"One thousand spirit stones each. These frost centipedes were born from a third-tier great demon; their potential is definitely not small!" The stall owner's voice was a rare female cultivator, and she stopped speaking after saying that.

Ye Jingcheng didn't rush to answer, as if in deep thought, then his gaze fell on a nearby three-leaf wood.

This three-leaf wood was extremely peculiar, resembling a small sapling, not particularly thick.

It only had three tender leaves, solitary and alone, but each leaf was as vibrant as jade, radiating extraordinary spiritual light.

This kind of spiritual wood doesn't start with three leaves; initially, it has many leaves like ordinary spiritual wood.

However, as it grows older, it sheds its spiritual leaves until it reaches three leaves and is fully mature.

After that, it will continue to shed leaves, but if even one leaf falls, the entire three-leaf wood will wither and die, making it extremely unique.

Therefore, intact three-leaf woods are rare.

The three wooden leaves on this three-leaf wood are the best materials for refining the third-tier, middle-grade spiritual pill, the Wood Transformation Pill. This pill is one of the few with dual effects.

It can both enhance wood-attributed true essence and strengthen the spiritual soul.

However, both effects are somewhat inferior to the Violet Spirit Pill and the Violet Soul Pill, respectively.

Of course, for Ye Jingcheng, the effects of this item are not limited to these, because the wood itself is the material for refining the Soul-Extinguishing Needle.

Once the Soul-Extinguishing Needle, refined from this wood, enters a cultivator's body, it can absorb the cultivator's soul.

Achieving the effect of annihilating the spiritual soul.

It's as if the three leaves are missing, and the wood withers; it's extremely terrifying.

Moreover, because the soul-absorbing effect of this needle is inherent to the three-leaf wood, there's no need to worry about spiritual soul backlash even when used against high-level cultivators, making it better than his Soul-Seizing Banner in some aspects.

Ye Jingcheng had previously obtained the Soul-Piercing Needle secret technique and the refining method for the Soul-Extinguishing Needle magical artifact in the Zhenhuang Secret Realm.

However, he lacked the three-leaf wood and couldn't refine it.

If this three-leaf wood is obtained smoothly, he could refine three Soul-Extinguishing Needles.

"How do you sell this wood?"

"The three-leaf wood isn't for sale, only for trade. The source of this treasure is significant; four Violet Palace cultivators died for it. I must have a third-tier, middle-grade or higher equivalent magical artifact in exchange!" the cultivator said directly.

"Of course, if the magical artifact you offer is satisfactory enough, then the Frost Centipede will be given to you as well!"

Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng also took out a jade slip and handed it to the other party.

Inside the jade slip was the Three-Element Azure Cloud Sword. Although it wasn't a third-tier, middle-grade magical artifact, because it was a set of third-tier, low-grade magical artifacts, it was more useful for early-stage Violet Palace cultivators than a single third-tier, middle-grade magical artifact.

Ye Jingcheng was also looking at the cultivation level revealed by the cultivator in front of him, which was the early stage of the Violet Palace realm, that's why he offered that price.

"This isn't a third-tier, middle-grade magical artifact; you must compensate me with another ten thousand spirit stones. Furthermore, the Frost Centipede requires additional spirit stones!" The female cultivator hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

Ye Jingcheng didn't hesitate, took out the spirit stones, and took the treasure away.

The price of a third-tier, low-grade magical artifact in the Eastern Region countries is about thirty to forty thousand spirit stones. His was a set, so its value was about fifty to sixty thousand spirit stones.

Those who know the effect of the three-leaf wood would sell it for seventy to eighty thousand spirit stones, which wouldn't be uncommon, after all, its three leaves belong to the third-tier, middle-grade spiritual material, but the spiritual wood itself is a third-tier, high-grade spiritual material.

It is also a spiritual material that restrains the spiritual soul.

The price of this kind of high-grade magical artifact can break two hundred thousand spirit stones.

The reason why Ye Jingcheng was able to exchange for it was because this place was for dealing with stolen goods, and the price itself was lower.

Otherwise, if this kind of spiritual wood appeared outside normally, it would probably be gone instantly.

After putting away the Frost Centipede, Ye Jingcheng got up and continued to look around to the side.

After looking for a while, Ye Jingcheng's eyes widened even more.

He saw a female cultivator selling some spiritual herbs at a stall next to him.

Among these spiritual herbs, three were exactly the treasures in Ye Jingcheng's third-tier wood recipe.

These treasures were also very old.

The female cultivator's cultivation was also not high, only in the middle stage of the Violet Palace realm.

"Trading for third-tier magical artifacts, preferably special ones!" When the female cultivator saw Ye Jingcheng looking over, she casually spoke.

Her voice was very pleasant, like a lark. Some cultivators who like voices might not be able to resist the attraction of this voice.

However, at this moment, Ye Jingcheng was not only not attracted but felt a sense of vigilance in his heart.

These three spiritual herbs were all spiritual objects that Ye Jingcheng had mentioned before at the Violet Palace trade fair and to that cultivator.

Now that the other party was taking the initiative to trade for his most magical artifacts, it was highly likely that it was bait.

He didn't believe that there would be such a coincidence in this world.

Ye Jingcheng walked past those few spiritual herbs and finally looked at a Green-Patterned Ginseng.

"What is the price of this second-tier, high-grade Green-Patterned Ginseng?" This Green-Patterned Ginseng was the second-tier White-Eyebrow Pill of the White-Eyebrow Green Wolf.

It belonged to the wind-attributed advanced spiritual pill.

"One thousand eight hundred spirit stones!" The cultivator was obviously a little disappointed.

After all, in her opinion, Ye Jingcheng had been tempted by the treasures on her stall.

"One thousand five hundred spirit stones!" Ye Jingcheng shook his head.

"Not selling, all my spiritual herbs are planted by my family, no price reduction!" The female cultivator also shook her head, and her attitude was extremely firm.

"What about one thousand six hundred spirit stones?"

"Not selling!"

… …

After several pulls, Ye Jingcheng finally took out one thousand eight hundred spirit stones and exchanged for the Green-Patterned Ginseng.

The quality of this Green-Patterned Ginseng was still good, with dense roots, and the medicinal effect would be excellent.

It also had three hundred years of medicinal properties.

Afterward, Ye Jingcheng checked around again, but he didn't find any more treasures that he liked. He wasn't in a hurry, after all, the night market had just started, and many cultivators might not have arrived yet, so he found a location for pills and artifacts, took out a few third-tier, low-grade magical artifacts, and started setting up a stall.

After Ye Jingcheng left, a cultivator walked to the female cultivator's stall, glanced at her, but the other party shook her head.

The cultivator's eyes became extremely gloomy.

If Ye Jingcheng was here, he would be able to discover that this cultivator was the Qingling Chamber of Commerce cultivator.

For him, the fall of Qing Kongying was actually a good thing.

It could also make his status and position higher.

However, the reason why Qing Kongying fell was because he was looking for the inheritance of the Five Elements True Monarch.

The cultivator who killed Qing Kongying probably obtained the inheritance of the Five Elements True Monarch.

This was a great opportunity for him, even for the family and ancestors behind him.

However, what troubled him was that even if he mobilized all the resources of the Qingling Chamber of Commerce, he could no longer find the cultivator who took out the Thunderstorm Gun and the Purple-Gold Ring.

That cultivator seemed to have disappeared from Taichang Square out of thin air.

He originally thought that the Ye family was suspicious.

However, Ye Jingcheng of the Ye family was refining pills that day, and Ye Jingcheng was also breaking through before, so it was impossible for him to go to the Qingyun Sea Area.

That's why he removed Ye Jingcheng from suspicion.

"Be vigilant against wood-attributed cultivators!" He lowered his voice and said to the female cultivator again.

Afterward, he also disappeared into the alleys.

He continued to stroll around in the night market.
