Chapter 510 - 426: Purple Mansion Spirit Storage, Breathing Technique?
Chapter 510: Chapter 426: Purple Mansion Spirit Storage, Breathing Technique?
Moreover, the range of his Divine Sense was incredibly clear, and if he focused his Divine Sense in a specific direction, the distance could be even further.
This Divine Sense naturally pleased him, as it indicated that refining the Tier Three Jade Qilin Pill and Tier Three Red Flame Pill would be more convenient in the future.
The six God-Breaking Needles in his Sea of Consciousness also became more refined and sharp.
Even the Cyan Wood Spirit Seed emitted a strange light.
The only concern was that he still hadn’t found suitable Essence Blood for the Red Flame Fox.
Ye Jingcheng rose from the Lingyun Lake. He suddenly noticed that the ice and snow in Lingyun Lake had already begun to melt.
When he carefully calculated, it had been three years since he went into seclusion, meaning he spent one year on training, one year on condensing Spiritual Energy, and another year on thoroughly breaking through his cultivation.
The breath of spring had quietly arrived at some unknown time.
The apricot trees on Lingyun Peak had begun to bloom buds, and a faint fragrance of flowers wafted to his nose.
Inside was the elegant and natural fragrance of Spring Tea, the clean and graceful scent of apricot trees, and the leisurely and far-reaching aroma of Yunfu Tea.
Ye Jingcheng could even sense the Star-Feeding Fish moving in Lingyun Lake, their actions striking the ice.
There was also water flowing down the glacier, though the tinkling sound was not as loud now.
Yet it sounded soothing to Ye Jingcheng’s ears.
“Congratulations, Patriarch!” Outside the array formation, Ye Jingli, Ye Xingqun, and Ye Xinghan had gathered here.
Apart from the three, the entire array formation on Lingyun Peak had been activated to its fullest.
It was still raining heavily in the sky, the rain pouring with a passionate rhythm.
Evidently, an anomaly occurred when he broke through, prompting Ye Jingli and the others to activate the array to conceal the anomaly.
Although his original array could also provide concealment, the immense influx of Spiritual Energy directed at him meant
that single array was insufficient.
Nor could it hide the whole of Lingyun Peak.
“Thank you, Brother Liu, Uncle Xingqun, and Uncle Xinghan!” Ye Jingcheng expressed his gratitude one by one.
“Patriarch, when shall we hold the Purple Mansion Ceremony, and what about the Daoist title?” Ye Xingqun asked.
Ye Jingli only knew to rejoice, and Ye Xinghan was not adept at speaking, while Ye Xingqun was better at handling such processes.
The Purple Mansion Ceremony could announce to the world, and the family would return to the Purple Mansion.
As for the Daoist title, every Purple Mansion cultivator must have one.
“Let’s postpone the Purple Mansion Ceremony and the Daoist title; I haven’t thought of it yet.” Ye Jingcheng shook his head, as he hadn’t truly considered the Daoist title before.
And during the breakthrough, there was no time to think about it.
Even now, he could not find leisure.
Breaking through to the Purple Mansion meant his previous Tier Two Treasures would have to be prepared for elimination.
He needed to start preparing materials to refine his Lifebound Magical Treasure.
The Four Phase Celestial Essence Scripture required a total of four Lifebound Spirit Treasures.
Additionally, the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon and Red Flame Fox needed to prepare Tier Three Advancement Elixirs.
The Four-Colored Cloud Deer and Golden Scale Beast needed preparations for breaking through to Tier Three.
Furthermore, the spirit vein within the grotto had to be further upgraded.
Of course, enhancing the strength of the Stone Spirit was also extremely important.
As for the Purple Mansion Ceremony, Ye Jingcheng did not intend to hold it so soon, even if doing so could gain the favor of Master Tianfu, he did not wish to rush it.
Having experienced the Heart Demon Tribulation, Ye Jingcheng still harbored a sense of urgency and fear towards Master Tianfu.
Even if exposure was necessary, he would prefer to do so in four to five years and ideally after the Wood Demon had cultivated the Taiqing Spirit Nurturing Skill to a certain level.
For now, he did not plan on revealing it.
With his powerful Divine Sense, five-colored Daoist Robe, and Supreme Turtle Concealing Qi Technique, even a True Master might not discern that he had broken through to the Purple Mansion.
“Very well, we are overseeing the family matters for you, Patriarch, while you continue to consolidate your powers!” Ye Xingqun said, noticing that Ye Jingli wanted to speak up, and took the initiative to address the matter.
The other two agreed quickly.
Ye Jingcheng did not refuse, as he indeed needed to consolidate further.
Now that the Purple Mansion was newly formed, his True Essence and Divine Soul were somewhat unstable, necessitating another period of seclusion.
After bidding farewell to Ye Jingli and the others, Ye Jingcheng returned to his courtyard.
After two years, the Spirit Field outside his courtyard remained lush and verdant, with both Spring Tea and Yunfu Tea growing exceedingly well, along with vast stretches of Spiritual Bamboo rising like mushrooms after rain beside his Spirit Field.
It was only when he opened the door that the courtyard appeared somewhat desolate, as the array had remained in operation, preventing other clan members from entering to clean.
As a result, some weeds had grown around the apricot tree due to the abundant Spiritual Energy, causing even ordinary weeds to gain Spirituality and reach a foot in height.
It became exceptionally fertile beneath the apricot tree, and there was no need to mention the apricot blossoms in full bloom, which were truly beautiful.
He gathered the Sound Transmission Talismans at the courtyard’s entrance, briefly reviewed them, and acquainted himself with recent family events.
Today, he was already fifty-seven years old.
And for most of the Jing Generation, time was running increasingly tight.
Ye Jingyu had returned from Taichang Market, ultimately giving up on Foundation Establishment.
She, like most of the ordinary members of the Ye Family, accepted her mediocrity and, after striving for most of her life, returned to the Ye Family’s Spirit Plant Garden.
Even at sixty years old this year, she had not broken through to the Ninth Layer of Qi Cultivation, let alone Foundation Establishment.
The Ye Family’s businesses in Taihang Market, such as the restaurant, pill workshop, and earth fire room, were becoming increasingly stable and profitable.
Especially after Xu Xiuqing joined, their reputation in the market improved greatly.
Additionally, the family’s new Foundation Establishment cultivators had been fully equipped with Tier Two Spiritual Artifacts.
The Red Patterned Sinking Iron and other iron mines Ye Jingcheng once acquired had become Chu Yanqing’s refining materials.
Ye Jing Hu also broke through to the Seventh Layer of Qi Cultivation at the age of nineteen.
In summary, most of the news was positive.
The last piece of news, however, was different, and he marked it in red.
It was that Ye Jinghe had applied to guard a mortal town outside Buqing Mountain.
It seemed that hidden forces were about to take action.
Ye Jingcheng read all the news in one go and sighed with relief, as there was no particularly bad news.
He tidied the courtyard a bit, removed the Spirit Grass, and released the Jade Ring Rat to continue managing the courtyard.
To his surprise, the Jade Ring Rat already showed a hint of Breathing Technique.
Although not much, seeing the light in the Jade Ring Rat’s eyes, Ye Jingcheng felt genuinely happy.
Apparently, the Jade Ring Rat had heeded his words!
At that moment, Ye Jingcheng was also full of anticipation for the Golden Scale Beast, suspecting that after two years, it may have already mastered the Breathing Technique, though he had not immediately entered the Grotto Heaven.
After breaking through to the Purple Mansion, consolidating his cultivation was still necessary.
His Fire Phase and Water Phase were indeed well refined.
But the Wood Phase and Earth Phase were definitely lacking.
So he began seclusion once more to consolidate his cultivation.
If one could peer inside him now, they would discover significant disparities among his Four Phase True Essence.
The Fire Phase and Water Phase had been refined to perfection, the True Essence incredibly abundant, with two Spirit Shadows within occasionally letting out beastly roars, appearing extremely lively.
However, the Earth Phase and Wood Phase made even the Purple Mansion seem sparse and unstable, with some of its Spirit Patterns rather dim.
This signified that for him to break through to the Middle Stage of the Purple Mansion, he needed to have the Wood Phase and Earth Phase quickly advance to the Purple Mansion.
His consolidation of cultivation primarily focused on reinforcing the Wood Phase and Earth Phase.
He took out several Wood Scenery Pills and Earth Return Pills to begin the refinement.
As Ye Jingcheng cultivated, his aura became increasingly stable.
After ten more days, on this morning, Ye Jingcheng let out a long breath of turbid air.
He felt the Supreme Turtle Concealing Qi Technique envelop him, making his cultivation seem as if it had regressed, gradually being sealed, ultimately manifesting the strength of the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment.
Ye Jingcheng was immensely satisfied. In ten days, not only did he consolidate everything, but he also perfectly concealed his aura.
Of course, he was well aware that this was largely due to the Beast Communication Pattern.
The expanded Beast Communication Pattern meant he never lacked Spiritual Energy!
Now, he even anticipated the third Soul Injection.
However, according to the family’s records, undertaking the third Soul Injection currently posed a significant risk.
After contemplating for a while, Ye Jingcheng opened the Grotto Heaven and proceeded inside.
