Chapter 305: Sword Qi Silhouette (Seeking Subscriptions and Monthly Tickets)

It was past noon, and the golden sun shone directly down, landing on the flame-swept valley, making it appear even more golden and red.

Beyond the valley was a large lake, no smaller than Jade Dragon Lake.

The lake reflected the golden-red mountains, and its surface constantly rippled, suggesting the presence of many spiritual fish.

The entire valley was now occupied by cultivators from the Taiyi Sect.

A formation had been activated at the valley entrance. The Ye family and their group descended from their spirit boat at the entrance and walked inside.

Upon entering the valley, one could feel the spiritual energy of the third-order spiritual vein slowly emanating from the spiritual lake.

The overwhelming sense of richness made many family cultivators' eyes burn with desire, yet they also showed regret.

The spiritual vein in this valley was at least of upper-grade third-order intensity, and the treasures within were undoubtedly abundant.

However, the area had been occupied by the sect cultivators since early morning, and even the four great Core Formation families had failed to gain anything from it.

"Is Great Grandpa alright?" At the entrance to the valley, all the cultivators began to gather here, and even the Ye family members who were mining Fire-Patterned Iron Ore had gradually arrived.

Ye Jingcheng couldn't help but ask Ye Xingliu.

At this moment, Ye Haicheng was meditating nearby, seemingly suffering from a significant injury.

"Grandfather said it's nothing serious, he'll be fine after meditating for a while," Ye Xingliu transmitted his voice.

After speaking, he immediately added:

"Inside the secret realm, there's no need to hold back!"

Ye Xingliu was truly angry this time.

The other party had actually slandered him and dared to feign injury.

He was also confused at the time, wondering why Kong Guangyun had rushed forward.

Now it seemed it was to make a malicious remark.

To pave the way for True Person Gu Xiang to take action.

"Understood," Ye Jingcheng nodded. Hearing that Ye Haicheng was fine, he breathed a sigh of relief, after all, he was the one who had collected the Golden-Horned Rhinoceros cub.

If he hadn't taken it, Ye Haicheng wouldn't have been injured.

As for the Kong family, he didn't have much affection for them either. After cooperating with the Jin family, he knew that when he first entered Taichang Square Market, it was the Xu and Kong families who had conspired to prevent the Ye family from buying spiritual herbs.

Therefore, within the secret realm, if the opportunity arose, he wouldn't mind taking action.

Within the secret realm, because Core Formation cultivators couldn't enter, it was impossible to trace back events, and even after leaving the secret realm, one wouldn't be questioned by the Soul Interrogation Talisman, this was the rule.

Of course, checking storage bags was an essential step.

"It's coming out!" Just then, Ye Xingliu spoke.

He saw that the lake in front of him suddenly began to appear as if a setting sun was manifesting within it.

Several Core Formation True Persons landed in various directions of the spiritual lake, continuously casting spiritual seals.

The next moment, the lake surface rolled back, revealing a hollow vortex.

The location of the vortex was exactly where the setting sun had just appeared.

Ye Jingcheng didn't understand formations, but seeing this scene, he knew that this was the entrance to the small secret realm.

Secret realms, like spiritual veins, were generally located on mountaintops or valley floors, within lakes or abysses.

Such environments would create spiritual energy differentials, and over time, secret realms would emerge.

Of course, Ye Jingcheng didn't know much about the specifics.

… …

At this moment, within the Kong family cultivators, Kong Chenmu and Kong Chenyun were also watching the entrance to the secret realm.

They had received news that this secret realm belonged to a Suppression Wasteland secret realm of the Eight Desolate Sect.

There would be Core Formation spiritual medicines inside, and even medicines for condensing the Core Formation Pill. For the Kong family, this was the most important thing.

After all, although the Kong family was currently enjoying immense prestige, being one of the few Core Formation families within Yan State.

The Kong family's old ancestor was a pseudo-Core cultivator who had cultivated using a demon core, and he would never be able to break through the early Core Formation stage in his lifetime.

If the Kong family could produce a new Core Formation cultivator, they would be able to stand out from the four great families.

"How is the marking matter progressing? This was personally instructed by the old ancestor," Kong Chenmu asked Kong Chenyun again.

"Absolutely foolproof. It was made using the sword qi from the sword that Guangyun ate. When the time comes, we can track Ye Xingliu, and even if they have spiritual beasts, they won't be able to detect it," Kong Chenyun nodded.

"The Wan family has also been dealt with."

"That's good. The Ye family may have obtained the inheritance of the Beast Wasteland. This is very important, but we must be careful of the sect," Kong Chenmu nodded, but there was still some worry in his eyes.

Although they were tracking the Ye family, the key was that this time, the trouble was actually permitted by the Taiyi Sect, as if they were investigating the Ye family's secrets.

Within the secret realm, he wasn't afraid of the Ye family causing any trouble, but he was afraid that the sect had also arranged for cultivators to follow the Ye family.

When conflicts arise, it's uncertain who will ultimately benefit.

… …

Within the sect, on the treasure ship, the red-faced old man and the Heavenly Blessing Old Daoist were still sitting in the room. True Person San Yuan also appeared in the room.

"It's estimated that the Ye family can't be investigated. Perhaps they truly have no secrets," the red-faced old man sighed.

After probing three times in a row, the Ye family was just like an ordinary Violet Palace family.

He could only remove the Ye family from consideration.

After all, if the Ye family truly had any hidden secrets, Ye Haicheng would never have reacted under life-and-death circumstances.

After all, that was the Ye family's strongest combat power on the surface. If he were to fall, they would directly fall back to a Foundation Establishment family.

And if there was collusion, the Ye family wouldn't have lost so many spiritual beasts and family members.

"Currently, what we should pay attention to are the Wan family, and the Zhong and Zhao families…" the red-faced old man continued.

"Indeed, but don't use such methods next time," True Person Tianfu replied.

Upon hearing this, the red-faced old man hesitated for a moment and then nodded.

Such blatant probing wasn't good for the reputation of the Taiyi Sect. Currently, the Taiyi Sect's situation within Yan State wasn't good.

Especially since the Nascent Soul True Monarch of the Taiyi Sect hadn't shown his face for nearly a hundred years.

This made many cultivators restless. The Green River Sect had already infiltrated the Taiyi Sect, let alone the immortal cultivation world of other countries.

This was also why they were so anxious.

… …

The vortex in the lake grew larger and larger, and finally, a void tunnel appeared in the very center.

It was incomparably deep, and one couldn't see what was inside at all.

Even if divine sense entered, it would instantly disappear, as if swallowed by space, and no feedback could be obtained.

Xuan Dao True Person was seen holding several demon insects and scattering them towards the vortex.

After a few breaths, Xuan Dao True Person took out a compass.

Spiritual light appeared in the compass, about to form a spiritual screen, as if a picture projection was about to appear.

However, this projection quickly disappeared completely.

Xuan Dao True Person's face showed some disappointment, but it quickly dissipated.

Most secret realms couldn't project spiritual information.

He was just trying it out. After trying it out, he solemnly opened his mouth:

"Now that the secret realm is stable, the opening date is one month. During this month, no matter how you explore, the sect will extract 40%. At the same time, for core spiritual medicines, the sect enjoys absolute priority in exchanging purchases; after one month, everyone will go to the weak point of the secret realm and wait for transmission, for one day. Those who are late will not be waited for."

As Xuan Dao True Person spoke, the Taiyi Sect also began to distribute jade talismans one by one.

The Ye family, who entered three people, was also divided into three jade talismans.

These jade talismans were the size of a palm, with a landscape painting on the front and only the character 'Tai' on the back.
