Myriad Spirits Immortal Clan

As the dawn rose from the east, the light shone on the sea of clouds, gradually fading it until it finally pierced through the clouds and illuminated the earth.

Countless cultivators opened their eyes at this moment, not looking towards the east, but towards Lingyun Peak.

Dong!

As the sacrificial bell rang, smoke dragons rose from the mountain peak.

Accompanying the smoke dragons, earth lizards, three-eyed demon pengs, thunder pengs, and azure cloud wolves flew into the sky.

Following them, many foxes, fire cloud birds, and other ordinary spirit beasts soared across the sky one by one.

This scene naturally attracted the attention of countless cultivators, as it was a rite unique to beast-taming families.

In addition to the aerial spirit beasts, in front of Lingyun Peak, at the foot of the mountain, there were dozens of snow foxes and mountain-swallowing rats and other small spirit beasts lined up in two rows, welcoming guests in advance.

Only after the spirit beasts did the Ye family cultivators appear.

Today, Ye Qingquan and Ye Jingyun, father and son, stood up straight, their Taoist robes neat and tidy, exuding vigor and spirit.

Today, one of them was responsible for cheering for Foundation Establishment and Purple Mansion cultivators, and the other for Golden Core and Nascent Soul cultivators.

As the most important Nascent Soul ceremony of the Ye family, they naturally had to ensure the Ye family's dignity.

"The ceremony begins," Ye Jingcheng announced to Ye Haicheng and the others from the council hall halfway up Lingyun Peak.

Immediately, the sound of bells and tripods echoed again from the mountain peak.

Accompanying it were the sounds of qin music, gongs, and drums.

The mist above the mountainside also began to dissipate completely, and Lingyun Peak, for the first time, revealed its full appearance to the many families and cultivators.

The towering mountain peak, the Beast Valley, the winding river, and most importantly, the Tiangang Body Tempering Array's Gang Ladder, which the Ye family had prepared long ago.

It descended from the mountainside like a lying broadsword.

"Everyone, ascend the mountain and celebrate with the True Lord!" Ye Jingyun said to everyone.

Immediately, the various forces began to climb the mountain.

Naturally, the Qi Refining cultivators and Qi Refining forces walked at the forefront.

They almost immediately placed their treasures and went up the mountain.

As usual, the Ye family had already planned everything. Qi Refining cultivators could also go up the mountain to drink and dine.

Because Qi Refining cultivators did not need pomp and circumstance, they could slowly enter from the side.

In the very center, the Foundation Establishment families and Foundation Establishment forces had already begun to climb the mountain.

"The Liu family of Baiye Mountain congratulates True Lord Qianchen on achieving Nascent Soul, and specially offers a Rank 2 White Bamboo Grass…"

"The Jia family of Shanyuan congratulates True Lord Qianchen on achieving Nascent Soul, and specially offers a Rank 2 Azure Moon Grass…"

…

The treasures presented by the Foundation Establishment cultivators were naturally not that impressive, but for these cultivators themselves, these treasures were still very precious.

Of course, for Ye Jingcheng, he was actually somewhat unfamiliar with these Foundation Establishment cultivators and Foundation Establishment families.

After all, it had been more than a hundred years since he had taken control of the Lingyun Ye family and paid attention to the situation in Yan Country.

Many of the former families had either been destroyed or had grown old.

Prosperity and decline, ups and downs.

When the Purple Mansion families began to present treasures later on, Ye Jingcheng felt more familiar.

The first to present a treasure was none other than the Wei family.

Ye Jingcheng's gaze fell on the distant, old Wei Dazhong, who was leading Wei Yuanyu and more than twenty beautiful female cultivators up the mountain.

This scene stunned not only Ye Jingcheng but also the other families.

After all, most families who came to participate in the ceremony would bring male clansmen with higher talents.

Today, the Wei family took a different approach, which naturally attracted attention.

"The Wei family of Yunhu congratulates True Lord Qianchen on achieving Nascent Soul, and specially offers a three-thousand-year-old Rank 4 Middle-Grade spirit medicine, Earth Essence Ginseng Jade Fruit…"

Upon hearing this, Ye Jingcheng was once again somewhat surprised.

The Wei family was indeed sincere. He could see that Wei Dazhong's lifespan was running out.

But at this time, with the Penglai Sect watching covetously, they were still willing to place all their bets on the Ye family, which was still somewhat courageous.

Moreover, this Earth Essence Ginseng Jade Fruit was precisely a Rank 4 auxiliary medicine for his Golden Scale Pill.

However, Ye Jingcheng had actually already collected all of this spirit medicine.

Following the Wei family's congratulations, another branch of the Ye family, the Qingyun Nunnery, also began to offer gifts.

In addition, Purple Mansion families from the four countries of Yan, Zhao, Jin, and Wei all ascended the mountain one by one.

There were nearly thirty Purple Mansion forces in total.

The treasures they sent were also unique.

When it came to the Shi family of Taiqing County, Ye Qingquan did not open the treasure they took out to look at it, but simply asked:

"What did Fellow Daoist Shi send?"

In the list sent by the Taiyi Sect, the Shi family was one of those who might be bribed and defected.

They were closer to the Four Counties of Qinghe and not far from the sphere of influence of the Heavenly Corpse Sect.

"A Rank 3 Yuan-Seeking Crystal," the Purple Mansion cultivator of the Shi family said, trying to appear calm.

Seeing this, Ye Qingquan did not publicize it but followed along with the cheers.

"The Shi clan of Taiqing congratulates True Lord Qianchen on achieving Nascent Soul, and specially offers a Rank 3 Yuan-Seeking Crystal…"

As he spoke, he passed the storage bag to the cultivator behind him.

However, unlike the other treasures that were collected together, this storage bag was sealed in a special jade box magic weapon and isolated with a spirit talisman.

In the Ye family's expectations, those who might cause trouble would have problems with their gifts.

Therefore, the Ye family had also taken precautions in advance.

As for the Shi family losing face, let the Shi family prove their innocence themselves.

The Ye family did not stop them at the foot of the mountain.

There were also two Purple Mansion families like the Shi family.

After the Purple Mansion congratulations were completed, it was time for the Golden Core families.

Among them, the Jiang and Li families of Taichang County naturally took the lead.

Jiang Xuanyuan of the Jiang family walked towards Ye Jingyun.

He did not take out a storage bag but a translucent jade box, which contained three Rank 4 spirit medicines and six Rank 3 spirit medicines.

There was also a Spirit-Questioning Talisman on the jade box.

"Senior Jiang…" Although Ye Jingyun knew why Jiang Xuanyuan was doing this, he remained calm on the surface, pretending to be unaware.

"Fellow Daoist Ye, my Jiang family has had some unscrupulous descendants secretly making all sorts of messy connections these days, and I have already purged them. I am just a Pseudo-Core cultivator, and it is useless for me to have Rank 4 spirit medicines, so I will congratulate True Lord Qianchen with them all," Jiang Xuanyuan said in a few words, clearing the Jiang family of suspicion, indicating that the Jiang family had not colluded with the Heavenly Corpse Sect.

Even the cultivators and descendants in the clan were purged as soon as they were said to be purged.

"Father is indeed as wise as a god!" Behind the Jiang family, Li Quanxian of the Li family could not help but sigh slightly.

Before this moment, he still had some doubts about whether Jiang Xuanyuan of the Jiang family was genuine that day.

But now it seemed that the Jiang family's Golden Core that day must have been fake.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible not to be exposed in front of the Spirit-Questioning Talisman.

"Be careful in your words and actions, the less you do, the fewer mistakes you make," Li Shangwu continued to remind him, then took a deep breath.

Then, he also walked up with a treasure.

"Fellow Daoist Ye, this is the congratulatory gift from our Li family. I hope that Fellow Daoist Ye will be kind enough to grant an audience after the ceremony."

What Li Shangwu took out was also a Rank 4 spirit medicine, but it was not an ordinary spirit medicine, but a Golden Core Condensing Fruit sapling.

This scene also greatly shocked Ye Jingyun.

Let alone a Golden Core family of a Pseudo-Core cultivator.

Even a Nascent Soul family could not take it out casually. They would usually hide it for themselves and still not feel at ease.

But at this moment, the Li family generously gave it away.

“I will report it!” Ye Jingyun knew that the other party was not there to see him.

After all, he was only a Zifu cultivator, but whether the Ye family would meet or not, and who would come to meet, was not something he could decide.

“Understood.” Li Shangwu nodded.

“The Li family of Taichang County respectfully congratulates True Monarch Qianchen on achieving the Nascent Soul stage, and specially presents a fourth-order Ningjin Fruit sapling…”

As soon as these words came out, all the cultivators looked sideways, after all, this treasure was too precious.

Especially those cultivators in the late stage of Zifu and the peak of Zifu were full of envy.

Generally, a Ningjin fruit tree can bear two to four spiritual fruits, and three spiritual fruits can almost invite a fourth-order alchemist to refine at least one Ningjin pill.

But the Li family directly sent it out, how could they not be surprised.

But soon, the treasures sent by the others were also extremely precious, directly overshadowing the cheers.

Whether it was the Jindan of the Heavenly Saber Sect or the Jindan of the Lingfu Sect of the Taiyi Sect, they all sent out good gifts.

“I feel something is wrong.” Although it was incredibly smooth, Ye Jingcheng felt a faint unease in his heart, and he looked at Ye Jingyu next to him.

The latter's eyes were also a little doubtful at the moment, and he also condensed starlight coin shadows in his hand.

It's just that none of them succeeded, and they dissipated.

Without the blessing of his natal magic weapon, and only having the cultivation of Jindan, he really couldn't deduce it.

“Fairy Linghong of Taiyi Sect congratulates the Ye family’s True Monarch Qianchen on breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage, and specially presents a fifth-order Qingquan Jade!”

After the Jindan cultivators finished cheering, it was the Nascent Soul cultivators' turn, and Fairy Linghong took the lead and came up first.

The cultivator prepared by the Ye family immediately activated the formation, and an auspicious cloud rose up, turning into a rich purple mist and sprinkling towards Lingshan.

Most cultivators could only be amazed by the mystery of Lingxia's auspicious clouds, but the cultivators near Fairy Linghong had a great opportunity.

This spiritual rain is not ordinary spiritual rain, but a specially refined third-order spiritual water.

“Fairy Linghong, please.” Ye Jingcheng also stepped forward and led Fairy Linghong into the center of the hall.

The rest of the Nascent Souls also congratulated and gave gifts.

“True Monarch Luanfu of the Lingfu Sect congratulates the Ye family’s True Monarch Qianchen on breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage, and specially presents a fifth-order Haoyuan Treasure Talisman…”

“True Monarch Xueyun of Blood King Valley congratulates the Ye family’s True Monarch Qianchen on breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage, and specially presents a fifth-order Coagulated Blood Crystal.”

The Nascent Souls of Lingfu Sect and Blood King Valley also gave their congratulatory gifts.

“True Monarch Qingling of the Qingling Chamber of Commerce congratulates the Ye family’s True Monarch Qianchen on breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage, and specially presents a fifth-order Qingguang Xuanming tea tree sapling!” Then came True Monarch Qingling of Zhao State.

Ye Jingcheng looked at these fifth-order treasures, his eyes also full of joy.

Speaking of spiritual tea trees, the Ye family does not yet have fifth-order ones. Although this Qingguang Xuanming is not as mysterious as Enlightenment Tea and Fushou Tea, its effect of condensing true essence is excellent, and it is also a great gift to the Ye family.

And you should know that True Monarch Qingling had previously sent Ye Jingcheng a nine-curved ginseng seedling.

“Fellow Daoist Qingling is really polite, you must drink a few more cups today.” Ye Jingcheng said quite generously.

True Monarch Qingling also smiled happily.

Seeing Ye Jingcheng's reply, she knew that the misunderstanding between the Qingling Chamber of Commerce and the Ye family would at least not be seized upon again.

After True Monarch Qingling finished giving gifts, True Monarch Qingchen and True Monk Jinling walked over together.

“True Monarch Qingchen of Yaowang Valley congratulates the Ye family’s True Monarch Qianchen on breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage, and specially presents a fifth-order Yuqing Xuanhuangzhi.”

“True Monk Jinling of Jinguang Temple congratulates the Ye family’s True Monarch Qianchen on breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage, and specially presents a fifth-order Jinyuan Fish magic weapon!”

The treasures presented by the two were both great congratulatory gifts to the Ye family.

The former is exactly the fifth-order Golden Scale Pill main medicine that Ye Jingcheng was looking for, while the latter can deal with demon cultivators.

Of course, what True Monk Jinling didn't know was that the Ye family already had a similar treasure.

Ye Jingcheng also preferred other main medicines.

But at this moment, he naturally couldn't say that Sikong Ziming was killed by him.

Accompanied by the spiritual glow filling the sky, transforming into auspicious dragons and phoenixes, thousands of foxes paying tribute and other mysterious visions.

Ye Jingcheng also invited the two into the mountain.

Just when Ye Jingcheng thought that this cheer was over, he saw three figures flying from the mountain together.

“Fellow Daoist Ye, could it be that you think my Penglai Nascent Souls are not worthy, and you didn’t even send an invitation?” The faint words naturally came from True Monarch Chixue.

The voice was not loud, but everyone could hear a trace of anger in True Monarch Chixue's words.

And this time, True Monarch Chixue was not the leader, but True Monarch Shengyun, another great cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage of Penglai Sect.

Behind him, there was also True Monarch Tianshi of the Heavenly Corpse Sect.

It can be said that the appearance of these three people made the atmosphere of the entire Lingshan subtle.

“Of course not, the Ye family arranged more than ten people to send invitations to Penglai, but the blockade was too severe, and it is estimated that they were intercepted by other affiliated forces…” Ye Jingcheng's tone was neither humble nor overbearing, he was just stating the facts, and he even wanted to mention certain sects.

But he saw the three of them heading towards the cheer stage.

“This is our congratulatory gift!” The three of them did not take out storage bags, but took out three jade slips.

As soon as the three jade slips were placed on the table, Ye Jingyun's heart trembled.

He seemed to have guessed something.

Therefore, he was more careful.

And unlike other Nascent Souls who restrained their aura, these three people did not restrain their aura.

This put Ye Jingyun under a lot of pressure.

“You can check the three treasures.” This time it was True Monarch Shengyun who spoke.

His words seemed a little feminine, but this gentleness made Ye Jingyun feel a chill down his back.

Then he suppressed his heartbeat, put the three jade slips in his palm, and checked them carefully. After checking them, he read them out:

“True Monarch Tianshi of the Heavenly Corpse Sect congratulates the Ye family’s Qianchen True Monarch on his breakthrough, and presents a fifth-order living corpse refining corpse and blood sacrifice technique.”

“True Monarch Chixue of Penglai Sect congratulates the Ye family’s True Monarch Qianchen on his breakthrough to the Nascent Soul stage, and specially presents a Earth-rank cultivation method, the Idle Cloud Crane Heart Spiritual Classic, which can be cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage!”

“True Monarch Shengyun of Penglai Sect congratulates the Ye family’s True Monarch Qianchen on his breakthrough to the Nascent Soul stage, and specially presents a Earth-rank cultivation method, the Purple Que Lingxin Spiritual Classic, which can be cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage.”

…

As soon as these words came out, not to mention the rest of the Ye family, even Ye Jingcheng of the Ye family was shocked.

At this moment, he completely did not understand whether the Penglai Sect was testing or forcing the Ye family to practice this technique. At this moment, the expressions of the two were too bland.

But it was precisely because of this that Ye Jingcheng felt very棘手(棘手: troublesome, thorny).

At this moment, Ye Jingcheng couldn't help but look at the other Nascent Souls.

At this moment, True Monarch Luanfu and others were fine, and there was no other expression, but True Monarch Qingchen and True Monk Jinling, like Ye Jingcheng, showed a bad look in their eyes.

“I will send a message to Senior Brother Bailian to come.” True Monarch Qingchen finally transmitted his voice.
