Myriad Spirits Immortal Clan

Even though it was already late autumn, the Medicine King Mountain was still slightly hot. The scorching sun shone down with intense redness, making people's faces flush.

At this moment, a long queue stretched out in front of the mountain gate, casting a series of shadows in the sunlight.

These cultivators included those in the Qi training stage and Foundation Establishment stage, but most of them were exceptionally young.

The sign in front of the mountain gate was also engraved with the requirements for the assessment, marking the grand opening of the Medicine King Valley to recruit a new batch of disciples.

Ye Xuecang, Ye Haicheng, and other Ye family cultivators were also present.

However, unlike their previous nervousness, the group now appeared extremely lazy, letting the sunlight shine on their faces, warming their bodies.

The Penglai Sect had not taken action, and the Medicine King Valley was still safe and sound, which was what the Ye family was most happy to see.

If things went smoothly, in a little over ten years, Ye Jingcheng would be able to enter seclusion to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, and Ye Jingyu and Ye Haihe would also be ready to break through to the Core Formation stage. By then, the Ye family would have two more Core Formation cultivators and one more Nascent Soul cultivator.

Once there were Nascent Soul cultivators, it would be more convenient for the Ye family to act in the Eastern Region or the Central Region.

"There are really a lot of people participating in the Medicine King Valley's disciple assessment this time," Ye Jinghu couldn't help but exclaim at this moment.

He took a look, and out of 30,000 people, a full 3,000 had remained.

Of course, many of them were accompanying elders. In reality, those who met the standards and could enter the assessment were estimated to be only about 600, and most of them were core disciples and members of their respective core sects.

But the reason for this was also because the conditions were harsh.

Those under the age of 30 had to be at least in the late stage of Qi training, and the purity of their spiritual roots had to exceed 50%.

Alternatively, if their spiritual roots were dual spiritual roots or higher, they had to be under the age of 20.

The requirements for Foundation Establishment cultivators were also extremely high, only accepting Foundation Establishment cultivators under the age of 45.

Even with these conditions, the 600 people still had to undergo an assessment before only 150 of them could remain.

This time, the Ye family had brought six clansmen, intending to arrange for all six of them to enter the Medicine King Valley. Two of them had obtained special approval from the Medicine King Valley, so the Ye family still had four people who had to participate in the assessment.

But because the clansmen the Ye family brought this time had relatively good talent, plus the two worst ones had been given special approval slots by the Ye family, even if not all six could enter, at least five should be able to.

Of course, the reason why the Ye family was so leisurely, accompanying them to participate in the assessment, was also to wait for Fairy Linghong of the Taiyi Sect to return to Yan State together.

This was obviously safer.

It wasn't that Ye Xuecang and the others were afraid and temporarily changed their minds.

Rather, the Medicine King Valley had specifically sent a voice transmission to the Ye family, obviously worried that something might happen to the Ye family in secret.

There were too many sects that had come this time, and there were also many Nascent Soul cultivators. If the Ye family's group was targeted, there was no need for Penglai to take action.

Moreover, if the Ye family's people were killed in the wilderness of Zhao State, Penglai could completely frame the coastal sects such as the Tianshui Sect and the Dongtian Sect.

This would be an unsolvable debt.

In addition, there was also the Bai family, which had lost its Nascent Soul ancestor due to the beast tide, and the Qinghe Sect, which was eyeing them covetously.

Ye Xuecang and the others felt a little apprehensive just thinking about it.

After all, this wasn't like being on Lingyun Peak in the Ye family, where they could use formations to maneuver or hold on for a moment. If they were ambushed in the wild, they might not even be able to call for help.

The Ye family's group happened to have nothing to do at the moment, so they agreed.

In the final analysis, it was still because the Ye family had too few Nascent Soul cultivators. If there were one or two Nascent Soul cultivators accompanying them, all the problems would be solved easily!

"Senior Ye!" Just as the group was watching the clansmen's assessment, they saw Superior Suxin of the Qingyun Nunnery, along with many cultivators from Yan State, approaching.

This group was precisely the cultivators who had discussed matters at the Yingke Tower that day.

They were also arranging for their clan disciples to participate in the assessment. After all, the Medicine King Valley might become an immortal sect in the future, and this was the best opportunity to curry favor. Moreover, the cultivators of the Immortal Cultivation States such as Yan, Zhao, and Jin were too close to the Medicine King Valley, making it difficult even if they wanted to lean towards the Penglai side.

Seeing so many people, Ye Xuecang couldn't help but be stunned.

After all, these people were all holding storage bags, seemingly wanting to offer treasures.

"We will leave after participating in the assessment!" Ye Xuecang immediately said, not intending to have a long conversation with these people.

This was the place for the Medicine King Valley's assessment, and the Ye family naturally couldn't accept gifts here on a large scale.

This was a major taboo!

Ye Xuecang wouldn't make such a mistake just because the Ye family now had some leverage that might make the Medicine King Valley look at them more favorably.

"Everyone is too kind. If you are particularly interested in the Ye family, welcome to Lingyun Peak after this matter is over!" Ye Jingyu also cupped his hands, politely declining the group's intention to continue the conversation.

Hearing this, the two Zifu stage cultivators from the Jiang and Li families were naturally disappointed. They even speculated in their hearts whether they had offended the Ye family too severely before.

Therefore, they were already considering how to apologize.

And the best way to apologize, in their hearts, was to perhaps start with the Taichang Workshop.

For example, offering a few shops and sending some spiritual vein mines that the Ye family lacked.

After all, Taixing County was still much poorer than Taichang County.

After the forces of Taixing County and Taichang County left, Ye Xuecang also inevitably saw Real Person Modao of the Tiandao Sect leading his sect disciples.

However, Real Person Modao was obviously much more rational, only greeting them before leaving.

The assessment lasted a full day, and to Ye Xuecang and the others' surprise, all six members of the Ye family were unexpectedly retained by the Medicine King Valley this time.

… …

Yan State, Taichang Mountains, Taichang Workshop.

On the upper floor of a pavilion in the middle of the workshop, Ye Jingteng was also examining one jade box after another.

Inside the jade boxes were nothing else but spiritual herbs.

The lowest age of these spiritual herbs was three hundred years.

This was also what he had prepared for Ye Qingyan. Compared to dealing with Ye Jingcheng, he didn't like Ye Qingyan's style, but at the moment, the only one who could wholeheartedly refine pills for him was Ye Qingyan. He had been stuck in the early stage of the Zifu stage for almost fifty years.

Now that he was about to be left far behind by Ye Qingshuang, he was naturally anxious.

Moreover, this time the Taiyi Sect arranged for cultivators to go to the Medicine King Valley, but didn't bring him along, only bringing Ye Qingshuang.

This made him feel a little resentful in his heart.

Therefore, after collecting so many spiritual herbs, he also planned to exchange them for some spiritual pills to break through to the middle stage of the Zifu stage, so that he would have more say in the sect.

"I wonder how Jingcheng's cultivation is now. He's almost breaking through to the Core Formation stage, right!" Ye Jingteng couldn't help but mutter again.

Just as he was lamenting, a voice transmission talisman flew out.

Before Ye Jingteng could react and check it, a middle-aged man wearing a golden robe walked in.

"Shishu Xuandao, aren't you in Penglai…" Ye Jingteng couldn't believe it.

"Everyone in Penglai had some fortuitous encounters, which delayed them for some time. By the way, do you know about the Ye family?" Real Person Xuandao asked.

"Shishu Xuandao is joking. This disciple comes from the Ye family. If not all, I know most of it!" Ye Jingteng responded respectfully.

Seeing Real Person Xuandao looking at him, clearly asking him to continue, he opened his mouth:

"Among the Ye family disciples, the most talented is Jingcheng of the Jing generation, followed by Jinghu of the Jing generation, then Qingshuang of the Qing generation. After that, this disciple should be able to rank among them. Currently, there are three Zifu stage cultivators in the family…"

"Are you sure?" Real Person Xuandao frowned. In his hands behind his back, there was also a Soul-Searching Talisman.

This couldn't help but make Real Person Xuandao suspect the Soul-Searching Talisman.

"Returning to Shishu, I am naturally certain!" Ye Jingteng nodded. Although he didn't know why he was interrupted, he thought for a moment and still answered affirmatively.

After all, he would return to Lingyun Peak every ten years or so to take a look.

"Take a look at this. Who is this?" Real Person Xuandao took out a jade slip.

Inside the jade slip, spiritual light radiated, and it was actually a scene of Ye Haicheng and Ye Xuecang.

It even included Ye Xuecang's battle scenes during the Core Formation stage, as well as the Three-Eyed Demon King, the Thunder Peng Demon King, and the Ye family's Nascent Soul pavilion.

"Only Nascent Soul forces can sit inside this pavilion," Real Person Xuandao reminded him.

"Impossible!" Ye Jingteng had already lost his composure at this moment.

In his memory, Ye Haicheng was dead, dead in the previous beast tide. At that time, Ye Jingyong even questioned Ye Jingcheng and had a conflict.

As for Core Formation cultivation and Nascent Soul forces, it made him feel that everything was fake.

It also subverted his understanding.

If the Ye family was really a Nascent Soul cultivator, why would he, with his dual spiritual roots, have to join the Taiyi Sect?

If the Ye family was such a strong force, why would they sometimes support him so much?

Their eyes clearly expected him to make a name for himself in the Taiyi Sect and give back to the family.

The family had also been arranging for clansmen to enter the sect and let him take care of them.

Ye Jingcheng even asked him to recruit sect disciples. Among the disciples he was currently teaching, two were about to break through to the Zifu stage, and there were also thirteen in the Foundation Establishment stage…

"I want to see Jingcheng! I want to see Jingcheng!" At this moment, he was a little hysterical, and even his Dao heart was a little collapsed, and his cultivation and true essence began to become disordered…

But before he could speak, he was forcibly pressed down on the head by Real Person Xuandao.

His eyes immediately turned pale, and it was Real Person Xuandao forcibly searching his soul.

This kind of soul searching would be restricted by the Jade Book, but Real Person Xuandao at this moment was extremely tyrannical, forcibly searching his soul.

Soon, the Jade Book exploded, and all his souls dissipated.

Real Person Xuandao didn't find much from the soul search.

What made him angry was that the bits and pieces he found were exactly the same as the Soul-Searching Talisman.

He couldn't find anything at all. This Ye Jingteng was completely a self-righteous abandoned son, and might not even know more than him!

… …

Taichang Mountains, Tengyun Mountain.

This was the spiritual mountain that Ye Jingteng had been assigned.

At this moment, many disciples gathered in front of the spiritual mountain.

Among these disciples, there were members of the Ye family, and there were also disciples of Ye Jingteng.

At this moment, they all gathered in front of the pavilion.

"The clan asked us to come here, but what is the matter?"

"We are not sure. Shouldn't Shizun be on duty in Taichang Workshop?"

One by one, they began to ask, but they didn't get any results.

When everyone entered the pavilion, they found that Ye Jingteng was not there?

It was clearly a cultivator wearing an isolation robe, and the other party only revealed a pair of pupils, staring at them incomparably oppressively.

"Everyone, I have a few questions to ask. Remember not to lie…"
