Myriad Spirits Immortal Clan

The Ye Rune Mountain actually doesn't have many clansmen, only a little over three hundred now, but don't underestimate these clansmen.

Most of them are spirit rune masters, and there are also many family members with other skills.

Currently, there are no Golden Core cultivators. There is only Ye Jingting and a Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Qing generation. That Foundation Establishment cultivator just recently broke through, and their combat power and spirit beasts are not strong. Ye Yunxuan and several stronger Foundation Establishment cultivators are now at the Ye Rune Gate in the Celestial Pivot Market.

The Ye family's superb rune skills are much stronger than the previous Xiao family, and have even changed many cultivators in the Celestial Pivot Prefecture's view of spirit runes.

Not to mention Ye Yunxuan's hands being soft from refining various customized spirit runes, but there are indeed many fourth-order spirit runes that need to be refined.

In order to ensure the development of the Ye family, Ye Yunxuan did not restrict them, just like Ye Jingcheng refining pills when he first entered Mount Xiao.

Other forces, also flattering the Ye Rune Gate, placed many commissions.

"Arrange for the core clansmen to wait in the back mountain," Ye Jingting instructed two Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Yun generation.

However, just when they thought there would be a dangerous battle, they saw spirit boats slowly landing on the nearby spirit mountains. From these spirit boats, only a few people slowly walked out.

Among them were the heads and sect leaders of various forces.

These cultivators were all Foundation Establishment and Core Formation. They lined up in front of the Ye Rune Mountain's gate, and spiritual greetings flew in...

"Aunt Jingting, these people don't seem to be coming with malicious intent..."

"Let's see what happens first." Seeing that these people were not hiding their identities, the tension in Ye Jingting's heart suddenly disappeared a lot.

After all, if they didn't hide their identities, they wouldn't dare to do anything no matter how bold they were.

Of course, as a cultivator guarding the outside, Ye Jingting couldn't relax. After all, it wasn't like the Ye family hadn't encountered situations where someone changed their appearance to make the other party relax.

...

Xu Qing is the Pavilion Master of the Profound Origin Pavilion. He is also the direct disciple of Xuanji Zhenren, not a child, but better than a child.

His cultivation is also in the late stage of Core Formation, and his age is less than one hundred and fifty years old. It is highly likely that he will break through to the Golden Core before the age of two hundred.

Originally, he was still handling affairs in the Profound Origin Pavilion, but he suddenly received a message from Xuanji Zhenren.

He was told to come to Ye Rune Mountain as soon as possible and offer treasures.

Next to him was another elder from the Profound Origin Pavilion.

Seeming to see Xu Qing's doubts, he explained:

"Pavilion Master, after each Nascent Soul Assembly in the Southern Wilderness Continent, some prefectures will undergo changes in power. This time, I'm afraid the Heavenly Sand Gate behind the Ye Rune Gate has gained the advantage." There was a hint of disbelief in the elder's eyes.

After all, ten years ago, they didn't even know about the Heavenly Sand Gate.

At that time, the other party was just a Golden Core force.

And the Shantu Liu family was an old Nascent Soul sect with countless experts in the clan. He knew of six or seven Golden Core cultivators alone.

"It should be, otherwise the cultivators from Lingfeng Valley, the Chu family, and the Qingyu Gate wouldn't have come so early." The Golden Core forces in Celestial Pivot Prefecture were originally four.

Of course, after Ye Jinghu arrived, it became five.

But at this moment, how could they not know that this Ye Rune Gate was not a Core Formation force, not a Golden Core force, but a Nascent Soul force.

They are now paying respects to the new power.

"No matter what, let's seize the opportunity first. If the Heavenly Sand Gate controls the Celestial Pivot Prefecture in the future, then befriending them now will definitely be no problem," Xu Qing also said.

In a prefecture's market, the first voice is naturally the Prefecture Lord, followed by the Nascent Soul forces.

Moreover, these Nascent Soul forces can even decide who to rent most of the shops to.

Celestial Pivot Prefecture is considered an inner prefecture, unlike Xiao Mountain Prefecture and Wangqing Prefecture, which can cross the border and go to Jiayuan Demon Pass Prefecture to plunder.

In Celestial Pivot Prefecture, they can only rely on the income from the market and the income from the spirit mines. An important shop can even determine the trend of a family or force.

...

"Fellow Daoist Ye, I am Xu Qing from the Profound Origin Pavilion, and I have come to visit."

"Fellow Daoist Ye, I am Ling Yunqing from Lingfeng Valley. I have a spirit beast cub, and I don't know how strong its bloodline is. I would like to ask Fellow Daoist Ye to help me take a look."

"Fellow Daoist Ye, I am Chu Yunxuan from the Chu family. I heard that the Ye Rune Gate is good at refining runes. I am seeking runes with a heavy reward."

"Fellow Daoist Ye, I am Jiang Yuqing from the Qingyu Gate. Our Qingyu Gate has discovered a third-order secret realm. Because of our weak strength, we would like to ask Fellow Daoist Ye for help to explore it together."

...

Ye Jingting looked at these voice transmissions, and her expression couldn't help but become strange.

She really didn't know what was going on. After all, these were just Golden Core forces, and those Core Formation forces were also transmitting voices, but not as eagerly.

These Golden Core forces seemed to be competing for the first spot to see her.

For visits between forces, most of them are individual visits. If Ye Jingting really invites them all in, she will also entertain them one by one.

After all, it's not a ceremony or conference. Entertaining them together would be a bit disrespectful to these cultivators.

Moreover, they are all carrying news, so they cannot be met together.

"Aunt Jingting, I have already replied. The family won the Nascent Soul Competition. Eleventh Uncle Jinghu and the others are still participating in the Nascent Soul trade fair and auction," finally the Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Qing generation came up to report.

Ye Jingting finally understood what had happened.

It's no wonder the Ye family didn't notify them. After all, even Ye Jingcheng was not confident about winning the competition. The Liu family was not an ordinary family. It was just that Zhu Yan especially restrained Liu Yuansheng, otherwise it would have been really suspenseful.

After the competition, they also attended banquets, trade fairs, shared experiences and methods, and the trade fair, which lasted for a day, and the auction lasted for two days.

And the other Golden Core and Core Formation forces, after they learned this news, arranged for people to come to Ye Rune Mountain to pay respects as soon as possible.

Of course, they actually wanted to go to Sand Yellow Mountain more, but Sand Yellow Mountain was after all in Xiao Mountain Prefecture.

Therefore, they came to Ye Rune Mountain.

"Aunt Jingting, how should we receive them now?"

"First, summon the Profound Origin Pavilion, then the three families, according to the value of their gifts," Ye Jingting quickly decided.

Those with good relations with the Ye family would naturally be summoned first.

Moreover, Xuanji Zhenren had a decent relationship with Ye Jingcheng, so the Profound Origin Pavilion should be prioritized even more.

As for forces where emotions couldn't be considered, the value of their gifts would be the deciding factor.

…

Beast Mountain. The Ye family didn't change the name; it was still Beast Mountain. Of course, there weren't many spiritual beasts here anymore.

Most were meat-producing spiritual beasts.

Such as the incredibly fat Golden-haired Pigs and the large-headed, intelligent Double Moon Rabbits.

These were relatively famous meat-producing spiritual beasts.

Of course, after the Ye family exposed themselves two years ago, they also arranged for some spiritual beasts to be raised here.

However, the main focus was on building spiritual medicine gardens.

After all, the spiritual energy of the Central Region couldn't compare to that of the Eastern Region. This place was also a fourth-order, high-grade spiritual vein. With careful nurturing and the use of formation spiritual stones, it could become a fifth-order spiritual vein.

Currently, Ye Qingfeng was in charge here. Unlike other clansmen, Ye Qingfeng believed he didn't have any outstanding qualities, so he only knew how to work hard and be responsible.

He had to inspect the surroundings every day.

Today, many spirit boats flew over as well.

However, unlike Ye Jingting's vagueness, Ye Qingfeng was much clearer about the situation.

Moreover, Ye Xingliu was also on Beast Mountain at this moment.

His purpose was to entertain the various forces of Wangqing Prefecture.

Although the Ye family could also entertain guests in the market, the Ye family was now a Nascent Soul force, so they had to maintain their status.

At this moment, Beast Mountain was filled with banquets.

Of course, this wasn't a ceremony. To the outside world, the Ye family was holding a declaration banquet against the Demonic Sect.

Of course, everyone knew that this was just a handover meeting, from the former Profound Puppet Sect to the current Ye family.

All the forces brought congratulatory gifts. No force thought this was a simple declaration ceremony.

Among them, Wang Shiyun, who should have been in Junhe Prefecture, had returned early, piloting the Dragon Envoy Flying Boat towards Beast Mountain.

As the first person to present a congratulatory gift.

When Ye Qingfeng saw this, he didn't dare to neglect it and quickly sent a voice transmission to Ye Xingliu.

Ye Xingliu then invited Wang Shiyun, Fairy Wang, in.

"Fellow Daoist Ye, I congratulate you on holding the declaration ceremony. I don't have much to offer, so I'll give you a fourth-order, top-grade Gold Crystal Pearl," Wang Shiyun said, taking out a jade box.

Ye Xingliu naturally accepted it with a smile and took out Mingxin Tea to entertain her.

…

In Junhe Prefecture, the finale treasure of the auction was a fifth-order cloak magic weapon.

Ye Jingcheng actually wanted it too, but too many cultivators wanted it, and it was auctioned off by a Nascent Soul cultivator who wasn't from the Southern Wilderness.

Although Ye Jingcheng felt regret and surprise, he wasn't particularly disappointed.

After all, he had the wings of the fifth-order Taiyin Ancient Crow, which, if refined into a magic weapon, could be comparable to the flying speed of a Great Demon Emperor.

It was just that he hadn't found a good weapon refiner yet.

Even Wang Kewei wasn't blindly given the task by Ye Jingcheng, as the other party had only just broken through to the Nascent Soul stage.

His weapon refining skills were still unknown.

"Eleventh Brother, there are even Nascent Soul cultivators secretly coming to the auction here," Ye Jinghu said beside him, also feeling regret.

"It's normal. This is the Central Region, and teleportation arrays are common. It wouldn't be surprising even if people from the Ziyang Immortal Sect came, let alone Nascent Soul cultivators from other prefectures," Ye Jingcheng replied.

Of course, this matter also served as a reminder to Ye Jingcheng.

In the future, auctions couldn't be too casual, otherwise, the treasures he wanted might really be snatched away by other forces.

The Ye family must also have a certain amount of spiritual stone reserves in terms of spiritual stones.

"No, Eleventh Brother, the income from these markets is really huge!" Even though Ye Jinghu was already a Golden Core cultivator and over 180 years old, he couldn't help but sigh after hearing about the income that could be divided from several markets.

The worst of them, Xiaoshan Prefecture, still had an income of about 2.1 million spiritual stones per year.

The Ye family occupied 30% of it, which meant that just by maintaining the market, they could earn 630,000 spiritual stones, enough to buy a slightly inferior fourth-order magic weapon.

Half of this income came from shop rentals, stall rentals in the loose cultivator square, and spiritual stone income from entering the market.

The other half came from annual auctions and commissions from various small trade fairs.

And the income of Wangqing Prefecture was even higher, around three million spiritual stones, which meant that the Ye family could divide 1.5 million spiritual stones.

Apart from Wangqing Prefecture, Tianshu Prefecture was the most surprising to the Ye family, with an income of about 3.9 million spiritual stones.

Of course, this was after accounting for the maintenance costs of the teleportation array, otherwise, the income would be even higher.

Adding up the three markets, the Ye family now only needed to maintain the facade and help the righteous sects to earn four million spiritual stones in income every year.

Although this income of four million spiritual stones wasn't much compared to the Ye family's more than 20,000 cultivators.

But this was an industry like a spiritual vein, capable of continuously generating profits.

Ye Jinghu and others finally understood why these Nascent Soul forces listened to the righteous sects.

After all, the benefits were there, and with the name of the righteous sects, they didn't have to worry about anyone attacking the market.

In addition to these fixed incomes, there were also many shop rental rights. Although they couldn't charge extra rent, it was still possible to receive some gifts and benefits.

Adding in the Ye family's various industries.

From today onwards, the Ye family could be said to no longer have to worry about insufficient spiritual stone resources.

They could even withdraw from the Eastern Region now.

Of course, the pity was that because the Ye family was too deeply involved in the Eastern Region, it was not easy for them to retreat completely now.

After all, not only was Medicine King Valley watching, but I'm afraid Penglai was also watching. If the Ye family were to really leave, the Ye family's mortals would probably be blood sacrificed.
