Myriad Spirits Immortal Clan

Inside the Purple Wood Hall, amidst swirling purple smoke, Ye Jingcheng and An Yuhuai welcomed Immortal Wu Xin and Steward Xiao into the hall, choosing a side hall following the direction of the sandalwood smoke.

Ye Jingyu received Yun Baiyuan in the main hall, while they received the Profound Sword Pavilion and the Boundless Commerce Association in the side hall. This arrangement had been decided long ago.

Moreover, Steward Xiao had proactively suggested discussing matters separately, making the division even more appropriate.

A sect celebration differs from other ceremonies; its primary focus is on celebration, followed by dividing the spoils. Currently, Jade Wood Bay remains entirely under the control of the Purple Wood Sect.

This area can only be divided and handed over by the Purple Wood Sect.

After all, the Profound Sword Pavilion didn't contribute a single soldier or horse.

After this allocation, the gazes of Steward Xiao and Immortal Wu Xin towards the main hall were unusual.

The fact that Old Ancestor Yun hadn't died meant that the Purple Wood Sect was a force branched out from the Yun family.

Now, with Sect Leader Zi and Yun Baiyuan entering the main hall together, the implication was obvious.

"Please, both of you, take a seat. Before Martial Uncle Zimu entered seclusion, he had already declared that Martial Brother Tang is fully authorized to make decisions!" An Yuhuai responded to Steward Xiao's earlier question.

Although he was also puzzled, Ye Xuefan had told him this, and even if he found it unreliable, he could only let Ye Jingcheng stand aside at this moment.

He began to speculate that Ye Jingcheng must have been a disciple accepted by Superior Zimu long ago, otherwise, this would never have happened.

If that were the case, he naturally needed to guide Ye Jingcheng even better.

As he spoke, he took out spiritual tea. As an elder of the sect, he needed to be courteous.

"Elder An, you're too kind. Actually, we had already made an agreement with Sect Leader Zi before coming here!" Steward Xiao glanced at Immortal Wu Xin before speaking.

This statement clearly indicated that they preferred to speak with Ye Jingyu.

"The Sect Leader needs to report some matters and is currently unavailable!" Ye Jingcheng directly and decisively stated.

His demeanor was carefree and without restraint.

It was as if he hadn't yet adapted to his identity as a rogue cultivator.

"Mainly, with the help of the Yun family in eradicating the Jade Chu Sect, some of the profits need to be distributed. Steward Xiao and Immortal Wu should be aware of this!" An Yuhuai hurriedly explained.

He couldn't help but glance at Ye Jingcheng.

It was as if he was telling Ye Jingcheng not to speak carelessly.

As far as An Yuhuai was concerned, he didn't actually know the details, but he suspected that the family had colluded with the Yun family long ago.

Otherwise, the Yun family held a banquet, and the Purple Wood Sect was fine, but the Jade Chu Sect produced demonic cultivators, and all the Purple Foundations died.

In his view, Ye Jingcheng had simply been informed of certain things by Superior Zimu.

However, this wasn't something that could be stated so directly and decisively at this time.

"Martial Brother Tang, you can't say it like that," An Yuhuai transmitted his voice to Ye Jingcheng.

"In that case, it is indeed inconvenient. My purpose in coming here is to purchase the Spring Jade Mine on Jade Chu Island!" Steward Xiao nodded. In his view, their behavior was indeed consistent.

The annexation of the Heavenly Cloud Archipelago could only benefit two parties: either the Purple Wood Sect, which had an extremely powerful background, or the Yun family, which orchestrated the whole thing.

Now, it seemed that the Yun family was the one orchestrating everything.

They were making the Purple Wood Sect accept it all, so as not to give others a reason to criticize them.

After all, the relationship between archipelago forces and affiliated forces had always been the rule in the Azure Cloud Sea.

The Jade Chu Sect had also been paying tribute before.

"This matter is naturally possible, but the quantity of Spring Jade cannot be large, and the price must be discussed with the Sect Leader!" Ye Jingcheng stated.

Upon hearing this, Steward Xiao became even more certain.

This wasn't waiting for the Sect Leader to discuss it at all; it was clearly waiting for the Yun family to speak.

The Jade Chu Sect had fallen into the hands of the Yun family.

The Purple Wood Sect was merely a caretaker.

Steward Xiao and Immortal Wu Xin exchanged glances, their hearts seemingly enlightened.

"What if we discuss a smaller quantity?" Steward Xiao continued to probe.

This made An Yuhuai extremely anxious, but he was extremely unfamiliar with Jade Chu Island.

And Tang Cheng seemed to be constantly led astray by the other party.

This time, Ye Jingcheng hesitated, but finally shook his head.

"It still needs to wait for the Sect Leader. However, Jade Clear Island and Jade Cold Island in Jade Wood Bay, which were agreed upon previously, can be gifted to Immortal Wu Xin, and the Boundless Commerce Association will receive some high-quality Cloud Wood!" Ye Jingcheng handed over the prepared land deeds, as well as the storage bracelets filled with Cloud Wood, to the two of them respectively.

"Moreover, we also want to do business with you both!" After the two finished looking at the land deeds and the storage bracelets, Ye Jingcheng took out two jade slips again and offered them to the two with both hands.

Inside were materials that were extremely rare spiritual herbs in the Azure Cloud Sea.

And also spiritual herbs that were extremely abundant in the Zhao Kingdom of the Eastern Region.

Ye Jingyu deliberately mistook the Azure River Sect for the Medicine King Valley.

At this moment, it was natural to form a closed loop here with Ye Jingcheng.

From this point on, the Profound Sword Pavilion would definitely not suspect that the Ye family had seen through them.

Nor would they suspect that the Ye family was some inland family.

As for investigating the Yun family, let them investigate, investigate thoroughly!

Only in this way would the Purple Foundations of the Yun family be more restrained.

Only then could the Ye family slowly insert Purple Foundations into them.

Killing too many Purple Foundations was not the Ye family's intention!

......

In another main hall, Ye Jingyu and Yun Baiyuan sat facing each other.

Ye Jingyu poured tea for Yun Baiyuan. As the tea mist rose, it was a blend of purple and white, with a lasting artistic conception.

"Senior Yun, the world says that the Purple Wood Sect's Cloud Wood is infinitely useful, but in fact, our Purple Wood Sect also has Purple Cloud Tea, which is equally a treasure!" Ye Jingyu poured tea for Yun Baiyuan and slowly began to talk about the art of tea.

During this time, he spoke in great detail about the origin of tea, its production, and even its brewing.

However, Yun Baiyuan became more and more impatient as he listened.

He always felt that Ye Jingyu was stalling for time.

He stared at Ye Jingyu and finally spoke:

"Sect Leader Zi, let's be frank. What happened in the Peach Garden Manor on Peach Cloud Island?"

"Didn't Senior Tianyun tell you about this?" Ye Jingyu asked in return.

Upon hearing this, Yun Baiyuan frowned.

"If Senior Tianyun didn't say, this junior cannot inform you either!" As he spoke, Ye Jingyu took out a storage bracelet.

"I hope Senior Yun will give this storage bracelet to Senior Tianyun!" Ye Jingyu was extremely solemn.

After Yun Baiyuan took it, Ye Jingyu continued to add:

"This item, Senior Tianyun warned, must not be viewed by anyone. I hope Senior Yun will prevent us juniors from being criticized by Senior Tianyun!"

As soon as these words came out, Yun Baiyuan frowned even tighter.

He held the storage bracelet, released it, and then held it again.

Finally, he put away the storage bracelet, picked up the spiritual tea on the table, and took a small sip.

Ye Jingyu then began to talk about the fragrance of the tea and its story.

......

While the few were inside the hall, the outside was equally lively. Many people noticed that the Zimu Sect and the Yun family were getting too close.

They were toasting and exchanging pleasantries, as if they were just starting to curry favor.

But discerning people were clear that the Zimu Sect and the Yun family were acting, pretending not to know each other before.

But in everyone's heart, a label had already been affixed: the Yun family and the Zimu Sect are together.

And next, their target would be other small forces and the Xuanjian Pavilion, and even the Haoran Chamber of Commerce.

......

The setting sun fell, and the fiery afterglow illuminated the sea in a blood-red hue.

The purple cloud trees also seemed to have turned into blood trees at this moment.

In the distance, the sect celebration was still in progress, not completely finished.

Ye Jingcheng had already bid farewell to Ye Jingyu and landed beside a desolate forest. The Xuanjian Pavilion, the Haoran Chamber of Commerce, and even the Yun family's cultivators had already left.

Ye Jingcheng naturally had no reason to stay on Zimu Island.

He now had all the things he needed prepared, and he had also received a mission.

He looked back at Zimu Island and then at a jade bottle in his hand.

Inside the jade bottle, there was a blood leech.

This was the life-saving blood leech that the family had given him.

Whether it was to call for reinforcements or to locate himself in the sea, it had miraculous effects.

The light and shadows in the distance eventually dissipated, and endless darkness began to surge from all directions.

And Ye Jingcheng finally threw out a spirit shuttle, turning into a spirit shadow, chasing the direction where the setting sun disappeared, disappearing into the sea.

His Hidden Island journey had officially begun.

......

In a desolate sea, a Peng fish with two wings was driving a large number of black roe fish towards a giant hole in the seabed.

These black roe fish did not intend to drill into this giant hole, but just then, the Peng fish suddenly blew out, flapping its two wings.

It stirred up a huge water tornado, directing the black roe fish towards the giant hole.

Seeing this, the Peng fish excitedly spat out a few bubbles.

With a flick of its tail, it also passed through the giant hole.

As it passed through the giant hole, the sea suddenly opened up. With a sweep of its tail, it rolled up a huge rock slab, blocking the giant hole.

Its body quickly overtook those slow and dark black roe fish and landed on the lake surface.

It made an 'oo oo' sound.

However, this time, no familiar figure came to the Peng fish's side by the lake.

Only the raging fire in the distance indicated that Ye Jingcheng was refining pills.

And Ye Jingcheng had been refining pills this time for some days.

Beside a mountain peak on the lake surface, Ye Jingcheng's brow was also tightly furrowed at this moment.

The Tianzhong Furnace even emitted a crisp sound. At this moment, the eyes of the Crimson Flame Fox, which was lying to the side, also became somewhat restless.

But then, the Dan furnace rotated at high speed again, and Ye Jingcheng immediately cast another spirit incantation.

The shaking of the Tianzhong Furnace lessened, and at the same time, the shadow of the bell reappeared, and Ye Jingcheng's expression eased.

In the next moment, the lid of the furnace flew high, also revealing the dark green spirit pills inside, which were the third-tier, low-grade spirit pills, Black Water Pills.

This was not the first furnace of spirit pills that Ye Jingcheng had refined on Chenyin Island.

He had been on Hidden Island for more than two months.

And in these two months, he had been almost entirely refining pills, from first-tier Spirit Nurturing Pills to second-tier Ren Water Pills, Wood Scenery Pills, Earth Return Pills, and even third-tier Mysterious Flame Pills and third-tier Black Water Pills.

Among them, he was almost certain of success with the second-tier spirit pills, but the third-tier spirit pills repeatedly failed. At the end of the first month, he refined the Mysterious Flame Pill. The first two furnaces failed, and it was only on the third furnace that he succeeded, refining one Mysterious Flame Pill.

This allowed him to become a third-tier alchemist.

After refining the third-tier Mysterious Flame Pill, Ye Jingcheng began to refine the third-tier Black Water Pill again.

However, after two more failures, this was the third furnace, and he finally succeeded.

Ye Jingcheng put away the spirit pills in a jade bottle and slowly warmed the furnace again. After doing all this, Ye Jingcheng threw the Mysterious Flame Pill to the Crimson Flame Fox.

Along with some Red Crested Sea Crane meat.

Allowing the Crimson Flame Fox to refine and devour it.

After the third-tier spirit pill was refined, the next step was to familiarize himself with the refining methods of the advancement pills.

After all, the Qingyun Sea area uses demon beast inner cores to refine pills, which is somewhat different from refining advancement pills.

Of course, what Ye Jingcheng wanted to refine first were the first-tier Moon Spirit Pill from the Moon Spirit Shell and the first-tier Peng Fish Pill from the Peng Fish.

Then there was the second-tier Thunder Rhino Pill.

These were all what Ye Jingcheng needed to refine.

After the Crimson Flame Fox chirped twice, it landed to the side. Ye Jingcheng got up and walked towards the spirit lake. Behind him, the Thunder Rhino Insect, the Golden Scale Beast, and the Four-Colored Cloud Deer all walked towards the lake.

The spirit fish that the Peng fish had brought naturally suffered.

The Golden Scale Beast stirred up countless golden light thorns in the water. These ground thorns also became like long spears, piercing several spirit fish.

The Four-Colored Cloud Deer sucked the spirit fish into the inner lake with its nose, followed by the Golden Falcon gliding across the sky and the Thunder Rhino Insect emitting a net of electricity.

A group of spirit beasts in the water showed their skills in competing for food.

The Peng fish immediately dared not fall behind, opened its big mouth, and swallowed the black roe fish.

For Ye Jingcheng, many of the red-jointed fish and star-eating fish in his cave were bought by himself. Now that the sea was providing for his group of spirit beasts, he was naturally willing.

And just then, a Jade Scale Flood Dragon emerged from the seabed in the distance.

In its mouth, it was even biting two late second-tier Saber-Toothed Sharks.

It threw them into the lake for the other spirit beasts to eat.

And it swam to Ye Jingcheng.

Its mouth was wide open.

"Master, hungry!"

Ye Jingcheng's face darkened when he saw this. He knew that this Jade Scale Flood Dragon must have come back full.

Now it said it was hungry, but it just wanted the third-tier advancement pill that Ye Jingcheng had refined.

"I don't have a third-tier advancement pill, but I do have a third-tier Black Water Pill!" Ye Jingcheng said, and he released the Black Water Pill.

He allowed the Jade Scale Flood Dragon to devour it. After the Jade Scale Flood Dragon swallowed the Black Water Pill, it circled again, and its fangs fiercely tore at the Saber-Toothed Shark.

It swallowed a small half of the Saber-Toothed Shark's meat.

The other spirit beasts immediately cried out, especially the Golden Scale Beast.

It growled lowly.

It was only glared at fiercely by the Jade Scale Flood Dragon.

"Roar!"

As if to say, if you have the ability, go catch it yourself, yellow-skinned monster!

The Golden Scale Beast had no choice but to use the golden light thorn technique to skewer the remaining beast meat and share the Saber-Toothed Shark with the Golden Falcon and the Four-Colored Cloud Deer.

There was no way, the situation was stronger than the beast. The Golden Scale Beast could only eat the spirit beast meat with extra force!

Eat fiercely!

It felt that it was not far from breaking through to the third tier!
