The Celestial Desolate Secret Realm is revealed to be a trap set by the Celestial Corpse Sect, Qinghe Sect, and Penglai Sect. Master Golden Armor of the Celestial Corpse Sect, aided by his Golden Armor Corpse Puppets and an illusionary setup using the Cyan Blood Mirror, prepares to ambush the Ye Family. The true goal is to obtain the Ye Family's secrets, possibly related to a powerful Spirit Treasure.

Lingyun Peak, side hall of the Assembly Hall. Three Ye Family Members were currently standing in the hall.

These three did not look old. They were precisely the three recommended by Ye Jingyun.

Ye Yunchang, Ye Tengyuan, and Ye Tengxue.

The former was at the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment, while the latter two were both at the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment.

All three were born in mortal towns in the Taihang Commandery. After being tested and found to have Spirit Roots, they were brought up to Lingyun Peak.

Having experienced the most difficult period of the Ye Family’s Lingyun Peak, combined with the deep influence of the Ye Clan Academy, they possessed an extremely strong sense of belonging to the Ye family.

Now that the Ye family was a Nascent Soul Clan, wearing the Ye family’s Daoist Robes as they walked across various parts of the Yan Kingdom’s Cultivation Realm, they could feel the heavy weight of responsibility on their shoulders.

The Ye family’s nurturing of cultivators went far beyond simply teaching Daoist Skills; they also cultivated character and morality. This was a point that Cultivation Clans valued much more than Cultivation Sects.

Although the three had been waiting for three days, they showed no signs of impatience.

After all, when they learned that the clan’s Nascent Soul True Monarch, Ancestor Ye Jingcheng, wanted to instruct them personally, their hearts had surged with excitement for a long time.

At that moment, a figure in a white robe walked in, and the three immediately bowed in continuous greeting.

"Eleventh Uncle!"

"Eleventh Ancestor!"

"You’ve been waiting for a long time, haven’t you?" Ye Jingcheng raised his hand and asked with a smile.

Of course, it wasn’t that he wanted to test the three of them; rather, he had spent a few extra days on Alchemy.

Because it was a new Pill Furnace, he didn’t immediately refine the Vermilion Disdain Pill, for which he was already familiar with the Pill Formula. Instead, he refined other Tier Four Spirit Pills to test his hand.

It was only on the second furnace that he refined the Vermilion Disdain Pill, which caused the delay of a few days.

Furthermore, after succeeding, he had immediately fed it to the Vermilion Bird, delaying him a bit longer.

Seeing Ye Jingcheng’s smile, the trio’s nervousness instantly dissipated by thirty percent.

After all, in their imaginations, their clan’s Nascent Soul Ancestor should have been incredibly stern. Yet, right now, he was amiable and genial, completely devoid of any airs of a Nascent Soul True Monarch.

"It wasn’t a long wait at all! Who knows how many people in the family desire this opportunity but can’t get it!" Ye Yunchang was the first to speak with a smile.

He was of an older generation and older in age.

Beside him, Ye Tengyuan and Ye Tengxue also nodded, their expressions filled with excitement.

"Did Jingyun mention it to you?" Ye Jingcheng inquired.

"He did, and your grandnephew is willing," Ye Yunchang nodded in direct agreement.

According to the clan’s explanation, they were to head to the Western Domain and join a sect there—most likely the Jinguang Temple.

Although this technically meant becoming monks, there were those within the Jinguang Temple who did not practice Buddhist Cultivation Techniques. They could still choose to retain their current Cultivation Techniques.

Moreover, if they could maintain contact with the clan and occasionally provide some assistance, the clan would support them with the resources needed to break through to the Purple Mansion.

Once they reached the Purple Mansion, combined with their own hard work and the vast stage provided by the Golden Light Temple Immortal Sect, breaking through to the Golden Core in the future would not be entirely impossible for them.

"Eleventh Ancestor, we are also willing," Ye Tengyuan and Ye Tengxue nodded.

"Good. Besides what Brother Jiu told you, I will remind you one last time. There is another purpose for sending the three of you to the Western Domain: to master the map of the Western Domain and find a suitable place for the Ye family to establish a branch family." Ye Jingcheng’s expression turned serious as he continued,

"I am not optimistic about the Medicine King Valley, so the performance of you three in the Western Domain is crucial. Of course, we will also arrange for other clan members to enter the Western Domain later, but because the Teleportation Array is not in the Ye family’s hands, our clansmen might not have many opportunities at all." Ye Jingcheng focused his gaze on Ye Yunchang.

Ye Yunchang had Three Spirit Roots and was also an Array Master who had previously studied the layout of Teleportation Arrays.

He perfectly understood Ye Jingcheng’s hint.

It meant finding a suitable territory in the Western Domain while simultaneously setting up a Teleportation Array to receive Ye Family Members.

"Eleventh Uncle, we will remember it! We will absolutely not disappoint the clan’s expectations!" Ye Yunchang nodded solemnly.

Hearing this, Ye Tengyuan and Ye Tengxue also felt their shoulders heavy with responsibility. Neither of them felt any fear or desire to back down.

As the three of them saw it, they were shouldering the legacy of the Ye family as a Nascent Soul Clan.

At a time like this, their blood should be boiling with passion; how could they possibly retreat?

"Here are some Cultivation Techniques the clan has acquired. You can each choose one to switch your cultivation to!" Ye Jingcheng then took out some Jade Talismans.

Most of these Jade Talismans contained Cultivation Techniques obtained by the Ye family, such as those from the Sword Desolate, Artifact Desolate, Pill Desolate, and Zhen Desolate factions, as well as some Cultivation Techniques from the Celestial Water Sect and Qinghe Sect.

These Cultivation Techniques were naturally quite good. Most of them could allow one to break through to the Early Stage of Nascent Soul. Even if the Ye family only provided the first half, it would be enough for them to cultivate to the Middle Stage of Golden Core.

If placed in some Golden Core Clans or Golden Core Influences, these would absolutely be Clan’s Secret Techniques, not easily revealed to outsiders.

Of course, the Cultivation Techniques Ye Jingcheng took out did not involve the Ye family’s core secrets, nor did they expose anything about the Central Domain.

Even so, the three still began to select their Cultivation Techniques with incomparable excitement.

Since they were no longer young and had limited malleability, the Jinguang Temple might not entrust them with heavy responsibilities. Now that they had the Cultivation Techniques provided by the Ye family, they felt much more confident.

After the three finished selecting their Cultivation Techniques, Ye Jingcheng led them to the Ancestral Hall. No special oaths were made; just offering a few sticks of incense and saying a few words in front of the numerous spirit tablets was enough.

Following the direction of the rising Sandalwood Smoke, the expressions in their eyes grew firmer, and the responsibility they bore on their shoulders felt greater. Their determination was no weaker than when the Ye family had once defended against a Beast Tide.

Only then was Ye Jingcheng fully reassured.

Since there was still some time before the trip to the Western Domain mentioned by the Medicine King Valley, Ye Jingcheng went to the Celestial Arrival Market after making arrangements for the three of them.

Thanks to the popularization of Teleportation Arrays, Ye Jingcheng’s travels had also become much more convenient.

In the market, a Golden Core trade fair and a Golden Core auction were currently being held.

Once the auction concluded, the participating Golden Core Cultivators would secretly hurry to the Yanhui Commandery together with Ye Jingcheng to explore the Secret Realm of the Eight Desolates Sect.

Although the danger in the Yanhui Commandery had lessened considerably, Ye Jingcheng still felt uneasy and decided to guard the Secret Realm Entrance.

Although he couldn’t go in, if any accidents happened inside, he could still provide assistance from the outside.

This time, counting the five Golden Cores from the Tian Dao Sect, one Golden Core from the Gu Family, one from the Xiao Family, and one from the Xuan Family, there were a full nine Golden Core Battle Powers participating.

Even if the Qinghe Sect had set up an ambush, factoring in the Demon Beasts brought by Ye Jingyu and the trump cards of the others, they would still be able to handle it with ease.

Ye Jingcheng still had some confidence in this; after all, among the Spirit Beasts he gave Ye Jingyu, both the White-Browed Cyan Wolf and the Golden Falcon were at the Late Stage of Tier Four.

The Six-Colored Cloud Deer was even at the Tier Four Peak. It was considered the Spirit Beast with the highest hope of breaking through to Tier Five, following the Golden Scale Beast and the Red Flame Fox.

At the same time, Ye Jingyu also carried quite a few Tier Four Spirit Puppets refined by Ye Haicheng.

On the surface, it seemed the Tian Dao Sect had the strongest combat power, but in truth, Ye Jingyu of the Ye family was not inferior in the slightest all on his own.

The place where Ye Jingcheng waited was the Ye Family Tavern.

Because the Celestial Arrival Market had just been rebuilt, business in the market wasn’t actually that good. However, due to the Tier Four auction and the Golden Core trade fair, business right now wasn’t bad either.

Several Ye Family Members were bustling about. Ye Jingcheng nodded at them, went up to the top Floor, and waited quietly.

Before long, the sun set, scattering vast swathes of blood-red radiance.

Footsteps sounded outside the door, and in the next moment, Ye Jingyu walked in.

"Jingcheng, I acquired a stalk of Tier Five Primordial Cyan Profound Grass at the trade fair."

Ye Jingyu’s face was filled with joy at this moment.

This Tier Five Primordial Cyan Profound Grass was exactly one of the main ingredients for Ye Jingcheng’s Tier Five Six-Color Pill. He hadn’t expected it to be found at the Golden Core trade fair.

Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng was naturally just as overjoyed. Although the Six-Colored Cloud Deer had not yet reached Tier Five, gathering the ingredients as early as possible was equally important to him.

"Many thanks, Fourth Brother," Ye Jingcheng nodded, then took out a Jade Bottle.

"This is for the Blue Jade Flood Dragon." Inside the Jade Bottle were Tier Four Blue Jade Pills.

Between Ye Jingyu’s two Flood Dragons, the Blue Jade Flood Dragon had considerable potential. However, for the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon, Tier Four was already close to its absolute limit; it would require piling up Spirit Medicines just to have a chance to break through to Tier Five.

Naturally, there was no Advancement Pill for it either.

And besides the Advancement Pill, Ye Jingcheng also brought out a Tier Four Demon Pill.

This Demon Pill was meant for the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon to consume. Although it couldn’t enhance its bloodline, it could at least allow the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon to break through to Tier Four.

This would also aid Ye Jingyu’s cultivation.

"Many thanks, Jingcheng!" Ye Jingyu stored away the Spirit Pill and the Demon Pill, equally elated.
