Myriad Spirits Immortal Clan

The sun blazed fiercely, another sweltering summer.

Because Sand Yellow Mountain was nurturing its spiritual veins, many Spirit-Nourishing Fir trees were planted.

This type of fir tree was somewhat similar to poplar, but it had the effect of gathering spiritual energy and exhaling it a second time. Therefore, many spiritual mountains that were cultivating and upgrading their spiritual veins had planted many Spirit-Nourishing Fir trees.

Although the Heavenly Sand Sect already had Profound Distance Peak, Sand Yellow Mountain still possessed a third-tier, top-grade spiritual vein, making it worthy of cultivation.

Moreover, it held considerable significance for the Heavenly Sand Sect.

As for the Ye family, Profound Distance Peak was a little too close to Xiao Mountain Market. While this might be good for ordinary forces, the Ye family, possessing a teleportation array, felt like they were being monitored.

It would be better to develop both mountains together, a more subtle and secure approach.

Ye Jingcheng's cave dwelling was located in the very center of Sand Yellow Mountain's spiritual vein, naturally surrounded by many fir trees.

A beautiful woman, clad in the Heavenly Sand Sect's Daoist robe, was quietly meditating beneath one of these fir trees.

Sunlight filtered through the leaves, casting a dappled spiritual light that fell upon the woman's body and face.

The light yellow Heavenly Sand Sect Daoist robe, which usually appeared somewhat rustic on ordinary Heavenly Sand Sect cultivators, took on an added touch of Daoist beauty when worn by this woman.

Moreover, the Daoist robe seemed slightly small, vaguely outlining the woman's exquisite and shapely figure.

Her eyes were gently closed, revealing long eyelashes that made her face appear even more delicate.

The person before him was none other than Zhu Wenjing of the Zhu family.

A late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator in her seventies, she was undoubtedly considered a remarkable genius in the Zhu family.

Now, appearing before the Heavenly Sand Sect and wearing a Heavenly Sand Daoist robe, Ye Jingcheng, even without knowing the exact reason, could roughly guess what was happening.

Ye Jingcheng glanced at her but didn't go forward to ask anything.

Instead, he directly took out his spirit boat and flew towards Xiao Mountain Market.

Only after Ye Jingcheng steered the spirit boat away did Zhu Wenjing finally open her eyes. Her eyes held a hint of confusion as she looked at the receding spiritual light in the distance, slightly puffing out her cheeks.

But in the end, as if making up her mind, she closed her eyes again.

This series of actions naturally fell entirely within Ye Jingcheng's spiritual awareness.

But he still didn't care; she was just a Foundation Establishment woman, not worthy of his excessive attention.

He directly steered the spirit boat and quickly flew away.

After nearly half a day, he finally saw the outline of Xiao Mountain Prefecture.

Perhaps it was because of the great victory in capturing Jia Yuan Prefecture, but the number of cultivators in Xiao Mountain Market had increased again.

The entire market was also much more lively.

As Ye Jingcheng entered the city gate, many people recognized him and respectfully offered him a junior's greeting.

Ye Jingcheng was now a celebrity in Xiao Mountain Market, capable of killing Ghost Fury Zhenren of the Ghost Xuan Sect and breaking Demon Jade Mountain. Some people even secretly rumored Ye Jingcheng to be the number one Golden Core cultivator.

Ye Jingcheng naturally shook his head and smiled wryly at this. He had only killed a mid-stage Golden Core cultivator; how could he be worthy of being called the number one Golden Core cultivator?

Any slightly more powerful late-stage Golden Core cultivator could likely defeat Ye Jingcheng.

Before long, Ye Jingcheng arrived at the Heavenly Sand Array Pavilion. Ye Xingliu was also there, currently studying a jade scroll about formations.

Upon seeing Ye Jingcheng arrive, he quickly stood up.

"Third Uncle, this nephew plans to return to Sand Sea and the Eastern Region. I've come this time to ask you, which fourth-tier weapon refiners are there in Xiao Mountain Prefecture?" Ye Jingcheng's Profound Light Boat hadn't been repaired yet, so he naturally needed to entrust a fourth-tier weapon refiner to repair it.

Although Chu Yanqing and Ye Haicheng's weapon refining skills weren't bad, there was still a difference between a third-tier and a fourth-tier weapon refiner.

"If it's weapon refining, the strongest in Xiao Mountain Prefecture should be Thousand Puppet Zhenren," Ye Xingliu replied without hesitation.

Ye Jingcheng nodded, exchanged a few more pleasantries, and finally entrusted him with some matters.

After all, he was about to return to Sand Sea and the Eastern Region.

Finally, he went to the Heavenly Sand Treasure Pavilion.

Who was living the most carefree life at the moment? Naturally, it was Xiao Congrong.

He wore an extremely ornate Daoist robe, his face glowing with health. Even some Purple Mansion cultivators had to treat him with courtesy.

"Elder Xiao, how are the market shops doing in recent years?" Ye Jingcheng asked with a slight frown.

Anyone who heard this would feel that this wasn't an inquiry about the market shops.

Although Xiao Congrong didn't fully understand Ye Jingcheng's meaning, he could still understand Ye Jingcheng's tone.

He put away his previous ease, repeatedly offering Ye Jingcheng tea, activating the array, and taking out several storage bags to begin reporting with a bow.

"Reporting to Elder Qianchen, the revenue from the market shops has greatly increased, increasing by a full 50% compared to before. This is even with the Heavenly Sand Sect's alchemists being a little overwhelmed; otherwise, the revenue would have increased even more!"

"Elder, inside this first storage bag are the spiritual herbs you requested. Inside the second storage bag are some good treasures. This junior didn't directly hand them over to the sect's treasure vault, but felt that perhaps the Elder would need them!"

"The third storage bag contains the gifts that those cultivators who wanted to cut in line for alchemy commissions gave after I screened them!"

"These jade scrolls contain the upcoming commissions according to your instructions, a total of ten, which are the commissions for the next ten years. In addition, there is also Purple Fortune Zhenren's commission for fourth-tier healing pills!"

Don't think that Xiao Congrong is unreliable in some matters. He is extremely good at accepting gifts.

Especially for spiritual pill commissions, Xiao Congrong not only accepts gifts but also judges the preciousness of the spiritual pill formulas and whether they have commonalities with the spiritual herbs Ye Jingcheng needs.

Therefore, Ye Jingcheng collected a lot of auxiliary herbs, and even two main herbs for fourth-tier Five-Colored Pills, Six-Colored Seeking Dao Flower and Heavenly Crystal Grass.

With these Seeking Dao Flower and Heavenly Crystal Grass, the Five-Colored Pill was only missing one main herb.

Moreover, because Ye Jingcheng had once obtained the essence blood of the Rhinoceros Deer Demon King.

The research on the Five-Colored Pill's formula could obviously be put on the agenda.

"Mm, not bad, but you need to pay attention to your cultivation!" Ye Jingcheng nodded and took out a bottle of Jade Soul Pills to reward Xiao Congrong.

If Xiao Congrong hadn't performed so well this time, his reprimand would naturally be a reprimand.

But this Xiao Congrong was indeed quite perceptive, and his sense of belonging to the Heavenly Sand Sect didn't seem as strong as Huang Tieyun's.

Then the shortcoming of his not having a very good temperament was no longer a shortcoming.

Naturally, he was worthy of Ye Jingcheng's encouragement.

After taking some more spiritual herbs and putting some third-tier spiritual pills up for sale, Ye Jingcheng left the Heavenly Sand Treasure Pavilion and headed towards Thousand Puppet Palace.

However, to Ye Jingcheng's surprise, Thousand Puppet Zhenren had already entered closed-door cultivation.

Although Ye Jingcheng was disappointed, he didn't continue to stay in Xiao Mountain Market. After buying a round of treasures, he returned to Sand Yellow Mountain.

What surprised him was that Zhu Wenjing was still meditating there.

It was as if she really regarded herself as a Heavenly Sand Sect disciple.

Of course, Ye Jingcheng still ignored her. After returning to his cave dwelling, he hung up the "Closed-Door Cultivation" sign and, before long, concealed his figure and headed towards the location of the teleportation array.

As the teleportation array lit up, Ye Jingcheng also disappeared from Sand Sea and appeared in the Fallen Soul Forbidden Land.

As nearly ten years had passed, the Soul-Extinguishing Insects here had once again recovered to a number of sixty to seventy thousand, transforming into a cloud of insects flying in the sky.

The only shortcoming was the lack of a powerful Insect King.

Even third-tier Soul-Extinguishing Insect Great Demons numbered only two or three.

"Jingcheng, are we going to destroy the Jin family and the Kong family this time?" Ye Haisheng couldn't help but ask when he saw Ye Jingcheng arrive.

The Fallen Soul Forbidden Land was good, but after all, it was all desert. For Ye Haisheng, there was no opportunity to test his sword.

In recent years, Ye Haisheng had obtained the Sword-Nurturing Pot, and Chen Jing had also grown well, so he naturally wanted to try his sword in the Eastern Region.
