Myriad Spirits Immortal Clan

Chapter 450: Yun Baili's Prying (Two-in-One, Bonus Update for 200 Comments)

The doors of the Violet Wood Sect were carved with many spiritual shadows of Violet Cloud Wood, symbolizing the vigorous purple energy of the entire Violet Wood Sect, while the top of the doors was carved with two eagles spreading their wings and flying high.

Ye Jingcheng looked at this architectural style that resembled but wasn't quite the Ye family's style, and couldn't help but smile slightly.

Guarding the gate were Ye Jingyu and Ye Haiyu.

There were also a few people whom Ye Jingcheng didn't recognize, presumably recruited by the Ye family in the Violet Wood Sect.

The hidden peak members of the Ye family were neither many nor few.

However, after opening several hidden islands, the clansmen became somewhat overwhelmed, and they had to admit that these Violet Wood Sect cultivators were more conducive to the development of the East Sea Ye family.

Of course, the Ye family had to grasp a certain degree, otherwise, they would fall into a more terrifying crisis of exposure.

At that time, even if Ye Xuecang broke through to the Golden Core stage, he might not be able to withstand the crisis.

And this was also the reason why Ye Jingcheng looked forward to the family's three-trial palace examination.

If the Ye family's three trials were not good, he could improve them.

If the three trials were powerful, he could also learn something from them.

Ye Jingcheng was not the first to try the palace examination; before him, there were five other cultivators.

Three were at the Qi training stage, and two were at the Foundation Establishment stage.

Each of them had a strength that was not considered very bad, but Ye Jingcheng was also clear that many of these cultivators had taken many elixirs refined from the inner cores of demon beasts, and their spiritual energy was not very condensed.

When breaking through realms, they could almost only rely on elixirs to break through.

After all, the cultivation methods circulating among the people were not top-notch.

And changing cultivation methods was also the reason why many rogue cultivators wanted to join sects.

"Do you have any specialized skills?" At this time, Ye Jingyu suddenly asked.

"Specialized skills?"

"Do alchemy and assassination count?" Ye Jingcheng quickly understood why Ye Jingyu suddenly asked the question.

Someone was watching this side.

Otherwise, Ye Jingyu wouldn't be like this.

Ye Jingyu didn't wink, because he knew that Ye Jingcheng and he didn't need to wink at all.

And the ending did indeed prove this.

It was just that Ye Jingcheng didn't know why Ye Jingyu could sense it, but he couldn't.

Therefore, in response to the things he had exposed these days, Ye Jingcheng naturally displayed his alchemy skills, otherwise, the act of buying spiritual herbs would be a bit of a cover-up.

"It counts, go in, but if your hostility is too heavy, don't blame the Violet Wood Sect for not giving you a chance," Ye Jingyu said mockingly.

"Thank you for the Elder's guidance!" Ye Jingcheng was not angry, but cupped his hands.

At this moment, he was a little curious about who was paying attention to this side.

Manager Yun of the Spirit Treasure Pavilion, or Yun Fusheng of the Cloud Sky Pavilion?

But he quickly shook his head.

These two were both Foundation Establishment cultivators; even if they had the guts, they didn't have the strength.

Plus, with his fourth brother's vigilance, it was the Yun family's Violet Palace.

The Violet Wood Sect was developing very quickly, and the Yun family and other forces were constantly infiltrating the Violet Wood Sect.

Of course, no matter who it was, for Ye Jingcheng, the most important thing at the moment was to help Ye Xuecang overcome the Golden Core tribulation.

Everything he was doing now seemed more like a move to paralyze these cultivators.

Ye Jingcheng entered the palace gate, and outside the palace gate was a formation.

As he walked into the formation, the surrounding scenery suddenly changed.

Rumble!

Boundless tsunamis swept in, the entire sky turned ink-colored, rolling dark clouds carried torrential rain, and roaring tsunamis swept in wave after wave.

At this moment, Ye Jingcheng's heart was filled with the thought that human power was finite, while the Heavenly Dao was infinite!

In the tsunami, various demon beasts appeared.

And Ye Jingcheng was now falling in front of Violet Wood Island.

Violet Wood Island had activated its island-protecting formation and was fighting fiercely with the demon race.

Before Ye Jingcheng's eyes, spiritual talismans for help were constantly being sent.

And now, there were only two paths in front of Ye Jingcheng.

One was to escape, and the other was to join the island.

Ye Jingcheng knew that this was an illusion, and the sect rarely killed people.

After hesitating for a moment, he went directly to Violet Wood Island.

When he landed on Violet Wood Island, the illusion disappeared directly, which was extremely simple.

Ye Jingcheng couldn't help but smile slightly, no wonder they said the Violet Wood Sect was easy, this kind of illusion was simply too easy to pass.

Of course, Ye Jingcheng also knew that the family had already graded him at this time.

The reaction, hesitation, decisiveness, or fear of each person who passed the trial all appeared in the observation of the Ye family's cultivators.

Testing ability was false, testing character was true!

Ye Jingcheng continued to the second trial, which was difficult. It was a spiritual puppet with strength comparable to Ye Jingcheng's.

Ye Jingcheng used the strength of the late Foundation Establishment stage, but could only fight the spiritual puppet to a draw.

Although this was because Ye Jingcheng had reservations, it also meant that the spiritual puppet transformed by the formation was extremely good.

In the end, as Ye Jingcheng suddenly changed his move and the Ever Green Sword was unleashed, the spiritual puppet completely disappeared.

Ye Jingcheng also landed on the third trial.

"Come and register your skill level. You barely passed the first two trials!" The one at the very end was an old man with a white beard.

The third trial was just an inquiry.

This made him stunned, and he couldn't help but sigh that the Violet Wood Sect's three trials were indeed simple.

However, Ye Jingcheng suddenly had a doubt. If it was so simple, then everyone should come to the Violet Wood Sect. In this case, the difficulty of the other three sects would not be too high either.

"I am An Yuhuai, the Grand Elder of the Violet Wood Sect. Although you possess a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivation, the Supreme Elder of the Violet Wood Sect is at the mid-stage Violet Palace realm. If you disrespect the elders of the sect, you will still be arrested and brought to the Hall of Punishments!" The old man, seeing that Ye Jingcheng hadn't moved, blew his beard in anger, a hint of fury in his eyes, almost wanting to revoke Ye Jingcheng's qualification.

"Elder An, I am skilled in alchemy. I was just slightly injured in my internal organs by that spiritual puppet, so I was momentarily stunned," Ye Jingcheng quickly explained.

Hearing that Ye Jingcheng was skilled in alchemy, Elder An's mood improved slightly, and he patiently continued to inquire about Ye Jingcheng's past, future plans, and even his mortal relatives.

Ye Jingcheng answered them one by one, as these were all things he had prepared beforehand.

However, he was also surprised in his heart. The Elder An before him seemed somewhat different. A late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator was actually asking about these things.

He could guarantee that there was no Soul Inquiry Talisman present.

Moreover, even if there was a Soul Inquiry Talisman, according to Elder An's questioning style, nothing would be revealed.

Although Ye Jingcheng was confused, he still nodded, finally joining his own sect.

Putting aside the difficulty, it was quite tedious.

"Now that you've joined the Violet Wood Sect, remember to work hard. You are still young, your future is infinitely bright, and the Supreme Elder of the Violet Wood Sect currently has no disciples. This matter, this elder is only telling you alone!" An Yuhuai said earnestly after giving Ye Jingcheng a Violet Wood Token.

His last words were uttered in a mysterious tone.

Ye Jingcheng naturally nodded repeatedly and even offered some spirit stones.

However, An Yuhuai did not accept them.

This surprised Ye Jingcheng.

"What kind of person do you take this old man for?" An Yuhuai couldn't help but shout loudly.

"Once you reach the sect, diligent cultivation is what matters!"

Hearing this, Ye Jingcheng also nodded, clearly understanding An Yuhuai's subtle hint about the word 'diligence'.

As for whether he would actually be diligent in the Violet Wood Sect, that would depend on his mood.

After passing the assessment, Ye Jingcheng waited behind the hall door.

Ensuring that he had no problems, he also sized up the others.

As expected, apart from those who were disqualified due to their age, only the Yun family's recruitment was very strict.

The other Violet Palace families didn't eliminate many people.

Especially the Violet Wood Sect, which retained about eighty percent.

And the Foundation Establishment sects retained even more.

Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng could already guess the fate of these cultivators.

There were many mineral veins in the outer sea, and there were also many spirit islands with resources.

The only thing lacking was a defense force and an exploration team.

At this time, Ye Jingyu, while explaining the sect rules, also gave Ye Jingcheng a different jade slip.

Inside the jade slip were the Ye family's assessment rules and the information on those being observed by the Ye family.

Among those who failed the assessment, it wasn't those who directly ran away in the illusion.

But those who decisively entered Violet Wood Island, and those who entered Violet Wood Island after hesitating for a very short time.

In the Ye family's view, such cultivators were most likely to harbor ulterior motives.

How could rogue cultivators sincerely dedicate themselves to the sect? Running away was only human nature.

And hesitating again and again was the mindset of a rogue cultivator, after all, they would also worry whether the illusion was also a killing formation.

Only those who had investigated, prepared well, and immediately saw that the illusion formation was not lethal posed the greatest threat to the Ye family.

On the contrary, those who were single-minded and afraid of death were unlikely to be spies.

As for escaping in the sea area, it was natural to do so on a small scale.

But during a large-scale beast tide, try escaping alone, and you will only fall faster!

In fact, according to the rules, Ye Jingcheng should have been eliminated.

It was just that Ye Jingyu forcibly pulled him in.

Moreover, it seemed that this Fourth Brother had a kind of deliberate suspicion in showing him the jade slip.

Ye Jingcheng couldn't help but smile. In fact, this illusion formation was not friendly to those with strong souls, after all, those with strong souls were less affected by the illusion.

There was no sense of immersive experience.

And the second test was even simpler, observing the source of the other party's techniques and fighting methods.

These things could sometimes roughly determine the other party's background.

At the same time, the Ye family's formation could also record images, which could be considered as learning from the strengths of various schools, which was not a problem.

It was also helpful for the Ye family's fighting experience.

It could be said to kill several birds with one stone.

The third test was just for show. That An Yuhuai was also someone recruited by the Ye family after the establishment of the Violet Wood Sect. Although this person's cultivation was average and his talent was average, he was extremely enthusiastic about establishing the sect.

After seeing this, the Ye family indeed gave An Yuhuai most of the management authority of the Violet Wood Sect.

Only retaining the supervisory power in the hands of the Ye family cultivators.

It could even be said that An Yuhuai really promoted the strength of the Violet Wood Sect.

"Did I misunderstand him?" Ye Jingcheng was also somewhat stunned at this moment.

But soon he shook his head. An Yuhuai was not important, what was important was the person hidden in the dark.

According to the jade slip, the one paying attention to the Ye family was indeed the Yun family's Violet Palace cultivator, Baiyan Shangren, Yun Baili, known for his insight into people's hearts!

There was a sensing magic treasure inside the Ye family's hall door.

According to the jade slip, this Yun Baili had even tracked Ye Jingyu before, but was later rebuked by Ye Xuefan.

Ye Jingyu also reminded Ye Jingcheng in the jade slip to act cautiously.

Not to be given a chance by this Yun Baili.

"Dong! Dong! Dong!"

As the three bell rings sounded, the sect assembly also came to an end. Those eliminated cultivators left in disappointment, while the successful cultivators all looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.

In the future, without the title of rogue cultivator, at least the risk of falling would be greatly reduced, and the possibility of gaining more spirit stones would increase.

As for Ye Jingcheng, he could finally openly land on Violet Wood Island and take a good look at the current development of Violet Wood Island.
