The calm of the night faded, and dawn once again spilled out from the edge of the sky.
The faint morning light shone golden, just like the current Ye Family, brimming with vitality.
With the Immortal Ascension Conference over, all the mortal town chiefs departed, and the Immortal Seedlings entered Clan Studies.
Ye Qingfeng and Ye Qingnian were naturally among them; anyone who wanted to obtain the Ye Family’s Beast Communication Pattern had to enter Clan Studies, and only with both the Ye Family’s cohesion and sense of honor complete would they be qualified.
So even though Chu Yanqing wanted to keep the two children by her side, she still sent them into Clan Studies.
Besides the Ye Family’s Clan Studies, the various clan-wide competitions were also being held in full swing.
The appearance of Nascent Soul Combat Power, the talent of the clan’s Immortal Seedlings, and the clan’s salary policies all spurred every clan mber on.
The clan competitions were divided into three types.
The first was skill assessnt.
Judged by the ten Hall Entrances.
Things like Arrays, Pills, Artifacts, Talismans would each evaluate the growth in their corresponding skills.
The second was Cultivation assessnt, conducted through Magical Combat between all clan mbers.
This also prevented so clan mbers from ignoring Erysipelas and ending up with hollow Cultivation.
The third was the Ye Family’s unique nurturing competition.
For example, the Beast Hall and Spirit Plant Hall would be evaluated based on a Cultivator’s Spirit Beasts.
Like if a clan mber’s Spirit Beast broke through to Early Stage of Second Tier, or even to Mid-stage Second Tier, there would be rewards.
Wood Demons and Spirit Plants were the sa.
As long as they hadn’t relied on the clan’s power and instead had raised their Spirit Beasts and Spirit Plants to break through on their own, there would be rewards.
After all, the Ye Family was different from other clans or Sects; all Spirit Beasts, once their Lifespan ended, would be reclaid by the clan and passed on to other clan mbers.
So the nurturing of Spirit Beasts was also extrely important.
The first day’s competition was the Alchemy competition, and as Pill Hall Master, Ye Jingcheng also had to preside over all clan mbers’ Alchemy competition.
Those participating in the Alchemy assessnt weren’t just mbers of the Pill Hall; all other clan mbers could participate as well.
However, in the end, only just over fifty people actually took part.
These fifty-plus people had all made progress in Alchemy Skill, but what disappointed Ye Jingcheng was that no new Tier Three Alchemist had appeared in the Ye Family; the best refinent was done by Ye Xingxiao, who refined a Tier Two Top-Grade Spirit Pill.
Among the Purple Mansion Race People who had broken through, none were particularly outstanding in Alchemy.
However, there were more than twenty new Tier Two Spirit Pill Masters.
This was also due to the fact that over the past few years, the Ye Family had produced a large number of Foundation Establishnt Cultivators.
Of course, besides Ye Xingxiao, there were two other clan mbers who made Ye Jingcheng’s eyes light up in Alchemy.
One was a female clan mber nad Ye Qingdan, not yet sixty years old, at Early Stage of Foundation Establishnt, yet already able to refine Tier Two High-Grade Spirit Pills. Although it was the simplest Tier Two High-Grade Spirit Pill, in Ye Jingcheng’s eyes it was still very good.
In addition, there was another clan mber, Ye Yunxiang, just over twenty, already capable of refining Tier One Top-Grade Spirit Pill, with both Pill count and Pill Formation Rate being quite good.
For those with good Alchemy Skill and big improvents, Ye Jingcheng even gave a special Alchemy guidance session, refining none other than Foundation Establishnt Pills.
He had originally wanted to refine a batch of Purple Mansion Jade Liquid as well, but unfortunately he had already used up all the Purple Jade Fruit earlier.
When five Foundation Establishnt Pills appeared in the Pill Furnace, many clan mbers were amazed, even Ye Xingxiao was the sa.
After all, the Foundation Establishnt Pills the Ye Family refined now were not made using Celestial Essence Fruit, but with the Inner Core of a Tier Three Great Demon. The difficulty was much higher in itself.
Usually, if a Demon Beast Inner Core produced three Spirit Pills, the Pill count was already considered quite high.
"Sotis Alchemy needs to proceed step by step; other tis it requires thinking outside the box..." Ye Jingcheng lectured. At this mont he truly thought, if only Ye Jingli and Ye Qingyan were here.
Although the two were, respectively, an Artifact Refiner and a Pill Master, that kind of pursuit they had was, in his opinion, a very important quality.
After Ye Jingcheng finished presiding over the Pill Hall’s competition, he finally had so free ti.
Next ca the Artifact Hall, Array Hall, and Talisman Hall.
The Artifact Hall’s competition was still organized by Chu Yanqing.
Ye Jingcheng also played a cao role on the side; the changes in the clan over these years were indeed trendous.
With a stable environnt, dense Spirit Veins, and sufficient resources, in terms of Artifact Refining, Chu Yanqing could now refine Tier Three Top-Grade Treasure.
Ye Haicheng could also refine Tier Three Top-Grade Treasure now.
In addition, the number of Tier Two Refiners had increased quite a bit.
Across the whole Ye Family, not counting Jing Li and several people over in the Cyan Cloud Sea Domain, there were already five Tier Two Top-grade Refiners.
Once these five people broke through to Purple Mansion in the future, they could all beco Tier Three Refiners.
Thinking of this, Ye Jingcheng only felt that Purple Mansion Jade Liquid was still extrely scarce.
Back when he went to the Taihang Mountain Range, he had given out two portions of Purple Mansion Jade Liquid, prepared for Ye Jingyong and Ye Qingyan respectively.
Adding in the one given to the Cyan Cloud Nunnery, and the ones given to Ye Xueliang, Ye Haiyan, and Ye Haiyu, there were already not many left.
Of course, Ye Family mbers could also choose Celestial Spirit Qi, but Celestial Spirit Qi was far too unstable; if the breakthrough failed, it would easily lead to ridian disorder. Just like Earthly Fiend Qi, both were double-edged swords.
Moreover, Celestial Spirit Qi worked best when paired with Earthly Fiend Qi.
When the Artifact Hall competition ended, Chu Yanqing, like Ye Jingcheng, started demonstrating Artifact Refining for the clan mbers.
However, the ti required for Artifact Refining was not comparable to Spirit Pills.
She refined for a full three days before forging a Tier Two Top-Grade Spiritual Artifact.
After Chu Yanqing finished refining, everyone respected her even more. Many of the Artifact Refining techniques Chu Yanqing used were actually Zhang Family’s Artifact Refining thods.
This showed that all these years, Chu Yanqing had also been constantly studying the Zhang Family’s Artifact Refining insights.
When they compared their own progress, they all couldn’t help but feel ashad.
"The reason Zhang Family’s Artifact Refining is so strong is also because of their Three-Forged Hamr and their special Spirit Storage Seal!" Chu Yanqing continued to explain.
"The Three-Forged Hamr increases toughness and sharpness, and the Five Elents Magic Spirit Storage Seal Diagram can slowly nurture the power of a Magical Artifact!"
Ye Jingcheng had used Zhang Family’s Artifact Refining before; indeed, compared to artifacts refined by other clans, their Magical Artifacts felt noticeably higher in quality.
After listening to Chu Yanqing’s explanation, he finally understood the reason.
Ye Jingcheng wanted to listen for a while longer, but suddenly felt a Divine Thought from the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor coming from the sky.
Clearly, the other party had almost finished consolidating its Cultivation.
"Yanqing, I’m going out for a bit!" Ye Jingcheng said.
This was the first communication between the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor and him, so it was naturally quite important.
Moreover, now that the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor had finished consolidating its Cultivation, Ye Jingcheng could also try to use Beast Communication on its Demon Essence and perform Refinent. His own Cultivation speed might well increase greatly again.
Naturally, Ye Jingcheng went over imdiately.
Ye Jingcheng arrived at the peak of Celestial Shadow Peak.
The Earth Dragon Demon Emperor, dressed in a Yellow Robe, was already waiting at the cave entrance.
Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng smiled slightly and cupped his hands.
"Dragon Ancestor."
"Jingcheng, I’ve almost finished consolidating. About that Flood Dragon-transformation thod..." The Earth Dragon Demon Emperor was clearly very interested in what Ye Jingcheng had said that day.
After all, although it had broken through, it was still in a Half-Flood Dragon body in truth, so it naturally wanted to transform into a Flood Dragon.
Otherwise it wouldn’t call itself Earth Dragon.
"Dragon Ancestor, the dragon formula is right here. It’s divided into two parts; the second part can only be revealed after the first is completed!" Ye Jingcheng directly handed it to the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor.
This was a Tier Four Advancent Pill; it might not be able to push it to Middle Stage of Nascent Soul, but the chance of transforming into a Flood Dragon was still not small.
Of course, the Spirit dicine inside was also extrely precious. Although Ye Jingcheng could have the Ye Family collect them, this Advancent Pill naturally could not be collected for free.
Letting the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor see it was also to tell it that the Ye Family was doing quite a lot.
Counting the favor of the Top-Grade Spirit Stones, the Ye Family already owed it a great debt.
After all, Ye Jingcheng had not used a master’s identity to command it even now.
"Jingcheng, I’ll leave this Pill Formula to the clan then. I’m not good at trade fairs, and I can’t go back to the Taihang Mountain Range. My current plan is to go to the Celestial Departure Grassland and carve out a territory!" the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor said.
It knew the Ye Family couldn’t possibly collect everything for free, so it had to show its value.
"Dragon Ancestor, there’s no need for that at this mont. We’ve discovered a Teleportation Array leading to the Central Domain, and we might need you to guard that Teleportation Array when the ti cos. Besides that, in the Black Crow Forbidden Land, there are still so Black Crows that may need your help..." Ye Jingcheng assigned tasks.
With the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor’s breakthrough, many of the Ye Family’s plans could be set in motion.
Wiping out the Black Crow Forbidden Land and nurturing Black Crow Fla Ear.
As well as subduing those Celestial Crow Ancient Wood Demons and the Soul-devouring Insect King; all of this would rely on the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor.
Once these were done, the Ye Family’s foundations in the Desert Sea would be completely solidified!
There would be no more hidden threats.
As for going to the Celestial Departure Grassland, in Ye Jingcheng’s view, it was entirely unnecessary right now. The Earth Dragon Demon Emperor had just broken through; its Combat Power definitely couldn’t compare with that Celestial Roc Demon Emperor.
"Very well, we’ll do as you say!" The Earth Dragon Demon Emperor nodded.
At the sa ti, it seed to recall sothing.
It spoke again:
"You no longer need to shut off the Demon Essence for Beast Communication. I can afford this bit of Demon Essence!"
The Earth Dragon Demon Emperor proactively spoke!
