Chapter 115: All the Gains [5K] When Ye Linyuan saw this, his eyes moved slightly. He understood that Taoist Yu was also warning him not to act rashly, but the information revealed was also within Ye Linyuan's expectations. The Minghuang swordsman fought repeatedly and was finally blocked by two foundation-building puppets and the Blood Soul monster. It was expected that the Nine-Curved Spirit Crane could escape. But according to Ye Linyuan's estimation, the Nine-Curved Spirit Crane must have suffered very serious injuries. After all, Minghuang Jianzi's methods are extremely domineering, and Su Shaoyu's black heart nail is also a very vicious and rare magic weapon. After such a surprise attack, the Nine-bend Spirit Crane could only be considered to have saved its life at best. It would not be able to fully recover for at least twenty to thirty years, and it might even be left with an incurable disease. As for the others, Ye Linyuan estimated that they did not suffer serious injuries. Most of the foundation-building cultivators value their lives very much. If they are not the real enemy of the Great Dao, or their strength is enough to completely crush the opponent, otherwise they will often keep some tricks in mind and will not really fight to the death with the opponent. After all, even if you kill the opponent, he may suffer serious injuries if he fights to the death.
Once he is seriously injured, other foundation-building cultivators in the outside world will not miss such a good opportunity, which they cannot tolerate. So in this battle, the foundation-building cultivators of both sides seemed to be fighting to the death, but in fact, except for Minghuang Jianzi and Jiuqu Linghe, no one else really tried to kill them. Apart from the real boss, the only two foundation-building puppets who might fight to the death are not their real bodies, and their strength is too far behind Minghuang Jianzi. It is very likely that they have no chance to escape rather than not wanting to escape. As for Wuyun Sanren, who is in the middle stage of foundation building, he should not be in danger of falling. Because he might be a fellow practitioner of a Jindan master who had been planning for many years, no one at the foundation-building stage dared to risk offending the Jindan master by chasing after the Wuyun Sanren. Otherwise, with Minghuang Jianzi's skills, he should have had a 70% chance of killing Wuyun Sanren with one blow. After all, the anger of a Jindan cultivator is enough to turn the entire Tianxing Sea upside down. Even the two sword masters of the Tianxing Sword Sect may not be willing to anger him. "You don't have to worry too much. As long as the ancestors are here, our Qinghe Immortal Sect will still be the sky of Qinghe Islands." As if noticing Ye Linyuan's deep thought, Taoist Yu suddenly spoke with a grim look. Ye Linyuan's expression suddenly changed when he heard this. He immediately stood up and bowed, saying, "Elder Yu, you are overthinking. We, the low-level cultivators, also hope to have a stable environment." "Since the ancestors are safe, we can be much more at ease." Taoist Yu then put away his serious expression, smiled warmly and said, "That's right. If my Qinghe Immortal Sect is gone, do you expect the new foundation-building forces to recognize your spiritual veins?" "By then, they will not recognize the merits we promised you, and may even ask you to buy the sacred mountain again. That will be even more difficult." "Senior is right." Ye Linyuan nodded repeatedly, looking frightened. Taoist Yu nodded, then picked up the list in his hand and said, "More than 3,300 merits, are you going to exchange them for materials, or for spiritual veins and other resources?" Ye Linyuan smiled, and then said thoughtfully: "My Ye family now has seven spiritual veins. There should be no shortage of spiritual energy within sixty years. You can give me some rare spiritual seeds." Taoist Yu nodded and said with a smile, "It seems to be what your master needs." Having said this, Taoist Yu picked up his pen and wrote down the account, then looked at Ye Linyuan and asked, "Is your master okay now?"
"Don't worry, Master, why would you personally take risks?" Ye Linyuan immediately replied with a smile. He understood that Taoist Yu was worried that his master behind him would be injured. Hearing what he said, Taoist Yu smiled again, handed the approved note to Ye Linyuan and said, "I specially approved a few more for you, as well as a few rare items. Go to the warehouse and choose." "Thank you very much, senior." Ye Linyuan took the note, then went to the warehouse and exchanged it for a batch of rare and precious spiritual species that were rarely seen in the outside world. After doing all this, the Ye family did not stay in the Qinghe Islands for long and prepared to return to the Seven Islands of Xinghu first. And on the dock, they met a group of familiar old friends again. At the dock, members of the Shui family were also boarding the ship. However, compared to the more than 40 people before they set out, there are only 20 Qi-cultivating cultivators left in the Shui family now, and many of them have suffered certain injuries. For the Shui family, this battle was also an extremely dangerous one. Seventeen of their cultivators died in the battle, including a cultivator in the late Qi training stage. The Shui clan ancestor's blood and energy were already insufficient, because he had unleashed all his strength in the battle, and his lifespan was shortened by about three years. Fortunately, Shui Hanqing did not encounter any serious problems. In this battle, the Shui family had been following Su Shaoyu and being protected, so the losses were relatively small. The most crucial thing is that the Shui clan's ancestor also had a clear mind. He resisted the temptation of the enlightenment flower and escaped with everyone in the Shui clan, successfully avoiding the killing spree around the island. Otherwise, there might not be many people in the Shui clan who would have survived. At this time, the Shui family's ancestor glanced at Ye Linyuan, and couldn't help but sighed slightly. Then he left with everyone in the Shui family without saying a word. Seeing this scene, Ye Huaixue couldn't help but say, "Now that Su Shaoyu has betrayed Qinghe Immortal Sect, I wonder why they are still so arrogant." "Huai Xue." Old Man Ye frowned slightly and stopped Huai Xue from speaking any further. Everyone looked at Ye Linyuan, but saw that Ye Linyuan shook his head slightly and took everyone from the Ye family on board the Lingfeng. "..." Everyone in the Ye family boarded the treasure ship and soon returned to the Seven Islands of Star Lake. They first came to the Red Star Island and divided the spoils of the trip. Everyone couldn't help but smile with satisfaction. In this battle, the Ye family gained a lot. The monster materials obtained on the battlefield filled several Nahai shells, and most of them were relatively high-level materials, enough for each of them to refine one or two mid-grade magic tools and talismans. After dividing these treasures, Ye Linyuan brought Zhou Yuwan, Chu Lingxi, and the golden-backed giant ape clan back to Yejia Island. After returning to Yejia Island, Ye Linyuan released the golden-haired monkey and the golden-backed giant ape into the valley and handed them over to Zhou Yuwan, the spirit beast husband, to take care of them. Then he came to the spirit field alone. He first took out the replaced spirit seeds. This time, Taoist Yu granted him quite a few spirit seeds, including some rare and precious spirit seeds. Among them, there are four kinds of spiritual seeds at the level of rare treasures, namely one spiritual mulberry tree seed, one rare treasure five-element wood seedling, three Ningyuan grass seeds, and a small piece of green jade bamboo. Among the three treasures, the Lingmulberry Tree is a rare spiritual tree. The leaves of this tree are the key resource for cultivating spiritual silkworms. Ye Linyuan planted this tree, and whether he used it to cultivate silkworms himself or sell it in the future, it would be a long-term and stable income. Needless to say, the Five Elements Wood is of this rare treasure level and are basically the seeds of the second-level Five Elements Wood.
With Ye Linyuan's current spiritual plant cultivation skills, this seedling is likely to transform into a second-level spiritual tree, and there is even a possibility of transforming into a rare spiritual tree. Lin Yuan had obtained three Ningyuan grass leaves before, and now he got three more. In the future, when the Ye family breaks through to the late stage of Qi training, they should not lack this key resource. The last green jade bamboo was prepared by Ye Linyuan for the golden-backed giant ape. Green Jade Bamboo is a rare spiritual plant with dual attributes of gold and wood. When combined with black gold ore, it can be used to refine the first-grade intermediate-grade soul-feeding pill 'Jin Yu Dan'. This kind of Soul-Feeding Pill is extremely useful to the Golden-backed Giant Ape. Not only can it quickly improve the Golden-backed Giant Ape's cultivation, it can also enhance the power of its bloodline. Long-term use will increase the possibility of it transforming into a rare bloodline in the future. In addition to these rare and precious spiritual seeds, Ye Linyuan also bought a large number of golden stone grass seeds. These gold stone grasses are of extraordinary value. Combined with a small amount of black gold ore, they can be used to refine lower-grade gold stone pills, which can be considered a lower-level substitute for the gold jade pill. However, it should not be a problem to use this pill to cultivate golden-haired monkeys and help them break through the middle stage of Qi Refining. These golden monkeys were not very strong, but Ye Linyuan was very fond of them because they were excellent soldiers for cultivating Dao soldiers. Once their cultivation broke through the middle stage of Qi training, combined with the volume of Dao soldier inheritance obtained by Ye Linyuan, it would be enough to make these golden monkeys' cultivation soar, and they would have combat power and cultivation comparable to those in the late stage of Qi training. For Ye Linyuan, if he could train dozens of golden-haired apes comparable to those in the late stage of Qi training, this would be an extremely strong fighting force. Of course, this is still far inferior to the golden-backed giant ape. Today's golden-backed giant ape has begun to practice the exclusive skills of the golden-backed giant ape lineage, which shows that its cultivation and combat power will continue to improve in the future. With the help of a large amount of Soul Feeding Pills, Ye Linyuan is confident that he can improve his cultivation to the level of perfect Qi Refining within ten years. By that time, relying on its defense, powerful body and martial arts, the golden-backed giant ape's strength would be enough to rival that of the red-hearted wanderer. "With these spiritual plants, I can practice peacefully for a while." Ye Linyuan whispered in his heart, planted these spiritual plants casually, and then came to the spiritual eye of the cave alone. Here, Ye Linyuan directly activated the formation and then took out the Moonlight Shell. At this time, Jiaoyuebei was still trapped in the Soul Binding Net. After sensing Ye Linyuan's breath, it struggled violently, but still could not break free from the Soul Binding Net. "You don't have to struggle." Ye Linyuan spoke calmly, then looked at Jiaoyue Bei and said, "If you recognize me as your master and become my spiritual beast, I will not hurt you in the slightest, and I will even help you break through the foundation-building stage in the future." The Bright Moon Shell trembled slightly, and a hint of ridicule came from it. Ye Linyuan smiled slightly, and then said: "I am not the Nine-bend Spirit Crane, and it will not be of much use if I swallow your body." "On the contrary, the Bright Moon Pearl you nurtured is the key to my cultivation of the Dao foundation, so your survival is more important to me." Having said this, Ye Linyuan finally spoke: "Become my spirit beast and give me the Bright Moon Pearl. You can continue to live, and I will protect your safety." "If you refuse, I can still get the Bright Moon Pearl even if I kill you. I think you know what to choose." After a moment of hesitation, Jiaoyuebei finally let go of her sea of consciousness silently. Upon seeing this, Ye Linyuan smiled and activated the secret beast-taming technique, leaving a soul imprint in Jiaoyuebei's sea of consciousness. After completing this step, Ye Linyuan untied the soul-binding net for it, and then said: "This underground river will be your home from now on." "There is a set of Tiangang invisible formation here, which is enough to hide from the detection of foundation-building cultivators. I think it is also the safest place for you to practice. I think it can also become a breeding ground for you."
Jiaoyuebei did not answer, but jumped into the underground river and wandered around happily, obviously very satisfied with this place. Compared with its previous habitat, the space of this underground river is not large, but it is more private and safer. In particular, there are three spiritual eyes on the island, which are very rare places for it to practice. At this moment, after swimming around the underground river, the Moonlight Shell returned to the cave with satisfaction, then opened its shell and spit out a pearl as bright as the moon. This bright pearl emits a faint moonlight, illuminating the entire cave brightly and clearly, and also exudes a hint of rich vitality. Bathed in the moonlight, Ye Linyuan suddenly felt that the speed of his true energy recovery increased greatly, and the healing power of the Cang Hai Ming Yue Gong also increased to a higher level. "What a powerful healing power! The Bright Moon Pearl is indeed a rare treasure." Ye Linyuan took the Bright Moon Pearl and couldn't help but smile. He then handed the Bright Moon Pearl to Bright Moon Shell and said, "Your bloodline is still in the process of transformation, so you should keep this Bright Moon Pearl to stabilize your bloodline." "When I achieve a breakthrough in my cultivation, you can give it to me." Upon seeing this, Jiaoyuebei immediately put away Jiaoyuezhu. Originally feeling somewhat uneasy, it now seemed to become much calmer. In response to this, Ye Linyuan nodded slightly. As a rare spiritual shell, the Bright Moon Shell could reach the foundation-building stage by practicing step by step. It was only because it was brought to life by Minghuang Jianzi using special means that it lacked some foundation. Now, with the help of the Taiyin Shehua Array to improve his foundation, he has saved thirty or forty years of hard training time. At this rate, it would take Bright Moon Shell ten years at most to completely digest the moon energy in its body and be able to be promoted to a foundation-building spirit beast. However, the promotion to become a foundation-building spirit beast would cause quite a stir. As a spirit beast with water and moon attributes, Jiaoyuebei’s combat power is at the bottom of the same level, so it is better to suppress it and wait for Ye Linyuan to complete the breakthrough before promotion. Thinking of this, Ye Linyuan said, "After your bloodline is full, you don't have to rush to advance to the foundation-building stage. Let's wait until I break through." Upon hearing this, Jiaoyuebei trembled slightly, as if she agreed with Ye Linyuan's suggestion, and then sank into the underground river. Seeing this, Ye Linyuan didn't say anything more. He came to the core of the cave's spirit eye alone, and then took out several core treasures he had obtained on this trip. In this battle, Ye Linyuan seized many treasures, but only three of them could be truly called treasures. They are the Moonlight Shell, the Soul Binding Net, and the Moonlight Mirror. Among the three treasures, the Bright Moon Shell is the opportunity to achieve enlightenment, and Ye Linyuan cares about it the most and values it the most. The Soul Binding Net is a rare first-class magical weapon, with a market price of about one thousand spirit stones. In this ancient world of cultivation, the second-order spiritual tools used by foundation-building cultivators often have greatly varying values depending on their grades. Generally, a low-grade spiritual weapon is worth about five hundred spirit stones, a mid-grade second-grade spiritual weapon is worth more than one thousand five hundred spirit stones, and a high-grade second-grade spiritual weapon is worth about five thousand spirit stones. Although the values of different treasures in the same level of magic weapons vary greatly, the value of the Soul Binding Net is still much higher than that of lower-grade magic weapons, and is slightly lower than that of second-level mid-grade magic weapons. In comparison, the Moonlight Mirror, as a top-grade spiritual weapon, is a treasure of inestimable value to some weak foundation-building immortals. Even a medium-level foundation-building force like the Qinghe Immortal Sect only has one top-grade sect treasure. This kind of sect treasure is the trump card of Qinghe Immortal Sect. However, the magic power of ordinary cultivators in the middle stage of foundation building is insufficient, and they can only exert 30% to 40% of its effect. They can only rely on the mountain protection formation to exert its full power.
It was precisely because of that sect's most precious treasure that the Qinghe Immortal Sect was able to resist the Minghuang Swordsman and prevent him from penetrating deep into the sect and killing the Nine-Curved Spirit Crane. This Moonlight Mirror is no less valuable than the Qinghe Immortal Sect's treasure. Unfortunately, Ye Linyuan is unable to activate it with his current cultivation level, and has no ability to use it for the time being. "This Moonlight Mirror is a superior spiritual tool that assists in cultivation, and it also has a certain degree of power. However, you can only try to refine it after you have established your foundation." Ye Linyuan whispered in his heart, then put away the Moonlight Mirror. Then he took another look at the Soul Binding Net, and after thinking about it, he decided to sacrifice and refine this treasure. This soul-binding net cannot attack or defend against enemies, but it is extremely effective in trapping enemies. It fits perfectly with Yuan Chen's water control formation and can make up for some of his shortcomings. After the Soul Binding Net was completed, Ye Linyuan put it away, a smile appearing in his eyes. This time, he took advantage of the situation and obtained one of the two key spiritual objects needed to practice the Canghai Mingyue Dao Foundation. Half of the core resources for the future foundation-building path have been solved, which made him feel very good. He took a moment to calm down, and then began to ponder the future. "I have obtained the Bright Moon Pearl, and the next thing I need is the Vast Ocean Spring." "I have just entered the eighth level of Qi training. It will take me another twenty years to reach the great perfection of Qi training. Before that, the most important thing is to plan for the Cang Hai Spring." "In addition, I must also upgrade the spiritual veins of the seven islands of Star Lake and even cultivate a second-level spiritual spring." Ye Linyuan continued to calculate and deduce, and combined with astrology and divination, he began to predict the opportunity of achieving enlightenment in the future. After a long time, Ye Linyuan shook his head slightly, then gave up the deduction with a frown: "Without sufficient intelligence support, forcing the deduction is like seeing flowers in the fog, or like an illusion in a dream. It is ultimately difficult to glimpse the truth." "It seems that in the next few years, I need to travel more around Tianxing Fairy City to find the trace of the Canghai Spring."
