An unknown sea island, the underground hall was extrely dim, with only a couple of scattered Moonlight Stones illuminating the quiet hall.
A shadowy figure quietly fell into the shadows.
Seemingly sensing sothing, the figure stood up, connecting array banners in hand, instantly forming a Grand Array; simultaneously, the surrounding Moonlight Stones also began to change.
In the next mont, countless bright white Spirit Patterns appeared in the center, and in an instant, they were all activated!
The entire hall beca dazzlingly bright.
Indeed, it was the Teleportation Array being activated.
As the Spiritual Aura quickly dissipated, two figures also appeared in the hall.
The two people vigilantly looked around; they were Ye Jingcheng and Ye Haicheng, who had just been teleported from Earth Dragon Valley.
Although they wielded Teleportation Talismans, they were still sowhat unaccustod due to the long-distance teleportation.
"Bright Pattern!" As a rough voice sounded, the Array Spirit Pattern around them also revealed a Beast Communication Pattern, and Ye Jingcheng and Ye Haicheng imdiately ca to their senses, each displaying a Beast Communication Pattern.
The hidden array imdiately disappeared, revealing the original appearance of the hall, and a figure walked out.
Wearing a deep-colored Purple Wood Sect Daoist Robe, his face was extrely square; Ye Jingcheng hadn’t seen him before, but Ye Haicheng obviously recognized him.
Otherwise, Ye Haicheng would have already taken out his Magical Artifact.
As if to dispel doubts, the man once again displayed the Beast Communication Pattern, confirming identities mutually.
This hall was not under Purple Wood Island but was located in the Outer Sea, considered a relatively dangerous place.
Of course, the Ye Family relocating the Teleportation Array was a helpless move.
With Cloud Family on the Celestial Cloud Islands being controlled by the Ye Family, and Purple Wood Sect being suspected, there were frequent secret inspections by Purple Mansion or Golden Core cultivators.
Moreover, with the increasing number of cultivators joining the Purple Wood Sect, manpower inevitably beca chaotic.
If the Ye Family kept the Teleportation Array under Purple Wood Sect, it would be seeking their own end.
After a pause, Ye Haicheng was the first to speak:
"Xingliang, where are Second Uncle and the others?"
"Second Uncle Gong and the others are still on Purple Wood Island, they can arrive in about half a day!" Ye Xingliang was a hidden mber of the Xing Generation, in the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishnt.
Ye Jingcheng hadn’t seen him, but upon hearing the na, he understood.
The reason for not recognizing him was also because the clan mbers in the Cyan Cloud Sea Domain had almost all taken the Bone Transformation Pill.
So, for convenience, had never changed their appearance back.
This was actually not good for the Ye Family; its cohesion wasn’t as strong but was sothing the Ye Family had to do.
Ye Jingcheng and Ye Haicheng followed a passage, walked through a lengthy corridor, and finally exited the sea island.
Upon reaching the outside of the island, feeling the rolling waves coming from afar, the scenery was again azure blue sky.
The long-lost surge of emotions also welled up in the heart; the feeling of the Sea Domain was completely different from the Eastern Domain, always passionate, forever vibrant!
After a brief emotion, Ye Jingcheng also began assessing the location.
Having spent over a decade in the Sea Domain, he naturally understood so boundaries of the Sea Domain, and after comparing several tis in mory, he confird this was the middle point between the Ye Family’s Hidden Island and Purple Wood Island, previously managed by Ye Xingliu.
Thinking of this, Ye Jingcheng beca curious about his once Third Uncle, the Patriarch, wondering if he had broken through to the Foundation Establishnt Peak and was in seclusion at the Purple Mansion.
...
The two didn’t wait long.
About half a day later, at the horizon, a gigantic sea whale appeared.
The sea whale spewed massive water pillars along its way, also extrely awe-inspiring on the sea surface.
When the sea whale landed nearby, its mouth opened wide, and from inside flew out several figures.
Ye Jingcheng imdiately recognized that among them were Ye Xuefan and Ye Xuecang.
Aside from these two, there were also Ye Haifei and Ye Haige.
This ti, the Ye Family sent quite a few people to battle; after all, it was against the Demon King, no amount of preparation was too much.
If not for needing to keep hands in reserve on the Celestial Cloud Islands, more people would have co!
"Second Granduncle, Fourth Granduncle..." Ye Jingcheng greeted and inquired politely.
Ye Xuecang looked at Ye Jingcheng, whose Qi Cultivation had just broken through to the Purple Mansion Peak, and even his physical prowess was at the mid-stage Third Tier.
He imdiately bead with a smile.
"Not bad!"
Ye Haige further smiled and said:
"Good lad, you’ve completely surpassed your granduncle!"
For a mont, everyone was filled with emotion.
On the contrary, Ye Jingcheng felt sowhat uncomfortable at that mont.
"Alright, ti to set off, Haifei, disperse your Blood Leech army, make sure the surrounding thousand-mile Sea Domain is under our control!"
"Haicheng, how many sets of Third Tier Five Elents Celestial Armor Puppet have you refined?"
"Second Uncle, only one set, but five individual Celestial Armor Puppets!" Ye Haicheng, over the years in the Taihang Mountain Range, aside from cultivating and training his physique, had also been refining Celestial Armor Puppets!
He took out a Storage Bag, which Ye Xuecang imdiately accepted!
Then he looked at Ye Xuefan.
Ye Xuefan nodded, then raised his hand.
The huge sea whale opened its mouth wide again.
This ti, Ye Jingcheng also followed Ye Xuecang and others inside.
The Spirit Beast was evidently acquired by Ye Xuefan recently, and Ye Jingcheng was curious whether the Blue Water Whale’s interior resembled a Grotto Heaven.
However, Ye Jingcheng quickly realized it was not the case; it was rely a small abdominal space, far from resembling a Grotto Heaven.
It was about the size of a grand hall, and with six people inside, it felt slightly crowded.
Moreover, the Spiritual Energy was quite thin.
"This is the food storage area of the Blue Water Whale; it stores food for three years with each hunt!" Seeing Ye Jingcheng’s confusion, Ye Xuefan explained.
"How about entering my Grotto Heaven, Second Uncle, Fourth Uncle?" Ye Jingcheng also suggested.
"No, at this mont, stability is the most important; we must always sense the surroundings and determine if action is possible before anything can be resolved," Ye Xuecang directly declined.
He appeared extrely serious.
After all, this was a crucial trial for the Ye Family, dealing with the Double-headed Turtle Demon King.
If there were other Demon Kings beside the Turtle Demon King, the Ye Family would be in great danger, especially since this ti there is no Earth Dragon Demon King to oversee the array.
The previous success in easily slaying the Sea-covering Demon King was due to the Earth Dragon Demon King’s presence!
"Jingcheng, you are about to reach the Golden Core stage; it’s just the right ti to adapt to the harsh environnt and temper yourself!" Ye Xuefan added.
Ye Jingcheng nodded imdiately.
The Blue Water Whale was a mid-stage Third Tier Great Demon with great speed in the ocean, unimpeded by anything.
In less than two days, Ye Jingcheng felt the familiar sea domain.
The Blue Water Whale landed in the depths of the ocean, exactly where Ye Shengyi was located.
Here not only existed the Ancient Treasure Sea asuring Stele but also a Star Sea Fruit Tree.
As the whale’s mouth opened, Ye Jingcheng saw everything at the seabed: pavilions had been erected, arrays were more complete, the Sea asuring Stele remained the best concealing treasure, and afar, the Star Sea Fruit was gone, replaced by countless Star Sea Spirit Leaves twinkling on the tree.
If he rembered correctly, the Star Sea Fruit should have matured seven or eight years ago, and evidently, it had been refined by the Earth Dragon Demon King.
No wonder Ye Jingcheng saw the Earth Dragon Demon King this ti with a much advanced cultivation, and even its physical appearance seed more perfected.
Now, the Ye Family just needed to collect enough Beast Souls for a Soul Injection to prepare for the Nascent Soul breakthrough.
No one ventured outside; instead, Ye Shengyi walked in, appearing older compared to his trip to the Celestial Mountain Sect.
The previously ingested two Spiritual Peaches only extended life by thirty years.
All Ye Family mbers imdiately greeted, even Ye Xuecang respectfully called him father.
However, Ye Shengyi rely nodded at Ye Xuecang but showed more satisfaction when looking at Ye Jingcheng, then proceeded to take out two Jade Talismans.
"These are so alchemy insights I’ve gained over the years!"
"The second contains breakthrough insights shared with your Second Uncle; mine aren’t advisable but serve as lessons!"
"Thank you, Third Ancestor; these are extrely helpful to !" Ye Jingcheng expressed gratitude repeatedly.
He felt naturally touched.
Both the alchemy experiences and breakthrough summaries were highly beneficial to him.
Especially the latter; Ye Shengyi’s breakthrough years ago depleted much of the family’s foundation, leaving him severely injured with declining cultivation. During retreat, he employed secret techniques against demon beasts, losing considerable lifespan!
Many people in similar situations don’t summarize insights, but the glance he took revealed a detailed account.
Ye Shengyi must have supplented it over the years.
"Is all the preparation work done this ti?" Ye Shengyi finally asked Ye Xuecang.
Upon receiving a confirmatory answer, the Blue Water Whale set off again, heading toward an even more distant sea domain, representing greater danger and naturally, new opportunities.
In the Cyan Cloud Sea Domain, in these outer deep sea areas, there are many Demon Kings, as well as nurous Human True Masters searching for treasures and undergoing trials.
The Ye Family beca more cautious, Ye Jingcheng noticed Ye Haifei sweating from controlling the Blood Leech Array under significant strain.
On the following day, the Blue Water Whale arrived at an island; this ti, Ye Xuecang joined Ye Haifei’s group, his Divine Sense stronger, taking out a Tier Four mirror treasure to assist in sensing alongside.
Thus, they waited another day.
As fish belly white appeared in the east, and the sea surface brightened with various lights, waves of Purple Qi drifted in.
To Ye Jingcheng’s surprise, nurous Purple Jade Conchs erged on the sea surface at this ti.
These Purple Jade Conchs consu Purple Qi, making them a valuable Spirit Pearl group, comparable to Moon Spirit Pearls.
However, the few people remained idle; their target was the Double-headed Turtle Demon King.
At that mont, Ye Xuecang finally opened his eyes:
"Feasible!"
Ye Haifei continued controlling the Blood Disc in his hand, monitoring the nearby sea domain, and incidentally, a Blood Leech entered the Purple Jade Conch group.
"Prepare blood bait; this old turtle’s favorite is Blood Demon Fish!" Ye Xuecang retrieved a Spirit Beast Bag, and a small school of Blood Demon Fish began swimming nearby.
This ti, the Ye Family did not use Demon-enticing Grass, which has strong dicinal power, attracting many Demon Kings!
But Blood Demon Fish is different; it is a Tier One Spirit Fish in youth, and a Tier Two Spirit Fish in maturity.
Blood Demon Fish is of little use to cultivators, but for many Armored Spirit Beasts, it is a substantial supplent.
Regular consumption may even form Blood Demon Patterns, similar to the Profound Pattern of the Ye Family’s Profound Desolate Dominator Body!
As the Spirit Fish were released, the most nervous was Ye Xuefan.
He is the family’s greatest Array Master, tasked with array setup next.
Moreover, to prevent early detection by the Double-headed Demon King, he couldn’t preemptively set up!
