The Ye Family clan members successfully entered a secret realm using spirit puppets and split souls. Inside, they discovered a suppressed blood shadow on an altar, wearing the robe of the Penglai Immortal Sect. After incinerating the remains, they found the suppression pillars to be valuable treasures and obtained a jade talisman and storage bag containing the Penglai Immortal Sect's cultivation methods and secrets.

According to what is recorded in the Jade Talisman, the Penglai Demon Sect attracts cultivators within various sects of the Eastern Domain using different Dao Foundation Establishment Methods. In reality, they cultivate all sorts of bloody Dao Embryos, which, once mature, are harvested by the core disciples of the Penglai Demon Sect.

Before the Dao Embryos mature completely, no issues arise, nor can they be detected.

They appear just like ordinary cultivation techniques.

Back then, when the Eight Desolates Sect’s Golden Core and Nascent Soul cultivators entered the Penglai Earth Immortal Realm, one of them had their Dao Embryo seized, and their Soul Ban broken, revealing the various secrets of the Eight Desolates Sect.

By the time it was discovered, it was already too late.

The Eight Desolates Sect’s secret plot to seize the opportunity for Divinity Transformation was completely destroyed before it even surfaced.

The Eight Desolates Disciples fled in all directions.

The remaining Desolate Guard Disciples were fortunate enough to capture a disciple practicing the Dao Embryo Method and studied it by using the Demon Refining Blood Pillar to refine the Dao Embryo.

They finally uncovered the secret.

Unfortunately, the Jade Talisman’s record ceased abruptly right at the point about how to detect whether one had practiced the Dao Foundation Establishment Method, without any further information.

As a result, Ye Jingyu couldn’t help but feel somewhat worried; if this cultivation technique was so magical, it wouldn’t be surprising if the Ye Family had unknowingly practiced it.

Should the Dao Embryo be seized and their memories checked, the Ye Family would face the same crisis.

At this moment, Ye Jingyu felt a chill run down his spine.

The Ye Family’s development in the Eastern Domain is normal for some clan members to have opportunities, and not all of them would share the cultivation techniques they obtained.

Thus, how to detect this became the most crucial issue for the Ye Family’s future.

"Let’s go to Spirit Mountain and search again!" Ye Jingyu said.

Then, the four of them searched each Spirit Mountain.

The gains were considerable; in addition to finding numerous Spirit Medicines, they also obtained a significant amount of Desolate Guard heritage and Jade Talismans.

They even acquired several Magical Treasures, including two Tier Four Spiritual Treasures.

One was the Profound Thunder Tower, a Tier Four Thunder Attribute Celestial Thunder Treasure with immense power.

The other was the Demon Suppression Ruler, a treasure found atop an Eight Immortals Table in a grand hall, sealed by arrays.

The only regret was the absence of the Smoke Technique heritage.

Perhaps the last Desolate Guard cultivators met with mishaps, or all the heritage was already within the Jade Talismans.

In any case, the Ye Family’s harvest this time was substantial.

With this achievement, they could exchange for Tier Three Great Demon Spirit Beast assistance in cultivation from the Ye Family.

This made Ye Jingli and others smile from ear to ear.

"Let’s go out first!" After confirming they had gathered all the treasures, Ye Jingyu said.

Many things remained unclear to them, but Ye Xuecang certainly knew the inside story.

He had many questions he wished to clarify with Ye Xuecang.

Upon exiting the Secret Realm, Ye Xuecang, who awaited them outside, breathed a sigh of relief.

"This is not the place to speak; let’s return to Celestial Protection Commandery first!" Ye Xuecang said directly, seeing the puzzlement on Ye Jingyu’s face.

The group silently retracted the array and walked out of the mountain.

Ye Xuecang wasn’t particularly interested in the Golden Bear Demon King since it was unwieldy and more suited to stay at the outskirts.

Half a day later, they appeared in Celestial Protection Commandery, on Purple Moon Mountain.

The former influence of Purple Moon Mountain was once a Purple Mansion Influence, but with the decline and fall of the Purple Mansion, the influence deteriorated until it relied on the Ye Family to take over, surviving by luck.

Naturally, it became one of the Ye Family’s strongholds.

"Let’s go to Purple Moon Lake; I’ve heard the Purple Moon Realm on top resonates with the Dao and is said to be the place where a True Monarch attained the Dao," suggested Ye Jingfeng to Ye Xingyu.

"Alright!" Ye Xuecang nodded.

Hearing it was a place of Dao attainment, Ye Jingli couldn’t help but feel a bit aspiring.

"Jingli, there’s nothing particularly special about this place of Dao attainment. It’s just glorified by posterity. If you attain the Dao in the future, Qing Liu Mountain will be your place of Dao attainment," Ye Jingyu said with a smile.

The others also laughed along.

The atmosphere relaxed quite a bit.

Soon, they arrived at Purple Moon Lake, where the sky had darkened, and a round moon hung high, reflecting a moon in the lake.

However, because the lake’s water appeared purple, there was a reflection of a purple moon in the water.

Ye Jingli looked over and, seeing nothing unusual, turned to the others’ storage bags.

Everyone handed their Jade Talismans and treasures to Ye Xuecang.

They awaited Ye Xuecang’s distribution.

After all, it involved both the Desolate Guard and the Penglai Immortal Sect.

Ye Xuecang began checking everything one by one.

Finally, he reached two Jade Talismans, one of which was the one Ye Jingyu had read, concerning the Dao Embryo Method.

The other Jade Talisman pertained to detecting whether someone had cultivated the corresponding cultivation technique through a Spirit Array.

"Did you bring out those four Demon Refining Pillars?" Ye Xuecang asked.

The four of them each took out a pillar.

After inspecting the four Demon Refining Pillars, Ye Xuecang’s brow relaxed noticeably, no longer as furrowed.

"These four pillars should be handed over to the family. In the future, they can be used as a method to awaken the Beast Communication Pattern detection. These four pillars are treasures of the Buddhist Cultivators, supplemented by arrays, and can check if there’s any concealed Dao Embryo Method!" Ye Xuecang stated.

As he spoke, he remained very solemn, evidently worried that the Ye Family had been infiltrated silently.

Now was the best chance to rectify this since the Ye Family’s cultivators’ cultivation weren’t advanced enough for the Dao Embryo to mature, hence avoiding premature harvesting.

Moreover, if the Ye Family intended to collaborate with the Taiyi Sect and Tian Dao Sect in the future, they must exercise greater caution. These two sects also face the risk of being harvested.

At that time, the Ye Family could end up in a perilous situation.

"Alright!" The four nodded.

"All these Tier Three Magical Treasures and Spirit Medicines should be distributed among you. You can either exchange them for Family Contribution Points or keep them for yourselves, but do not trade them in the Eastern Domain!" Ye Xuecang allocated the ordinary Tier Three Magical Treasures and some Spirit Medicines and Spirit Materials.
