Chapter 19: Rare Spirit Shell Seeing this, Old Man Ye looked at Ye Linyuan and said, "You said before that you wanted spirit seeds. These three spirit stones are at your disposal." Ye Linyuan nodded upon hearing this, and then said, "There is no time to lose. When the next gathering begins, we will go to Qinghe Market to see if we can buy some suitable spirit seeds." "it is good." Old Man Ye nodded, and then he stroked his beard and said, "There is a small gathering every three months in Qinghe Market, and many families will bring their excess supplies to sell at that time." "The next gathering will be in five days. We are far away from Qinghefang City, so we will be in time to leave tomorrow." "Alright." Ye Linyuan nodded and had no objection to this. Early the next morning, Ye Linyuan followed Old Man Ye and set off in a small boat towards Qinghefang Market. As the largest training market under the Qinghe Immortal Sect, Qinghe Immortal Market is located in the center of the Qinghe Islands, a full two thousand miles away from Yejia Island.
The grandfather and grandson sailed on the boat for four or five days before they arrived outside the Qinghe Xianfang. "Is this the Qinghe Immortal Pavilion?" Looking at the Qinghe Xianfang in front of him, Ye Linyuan's eyes moved slightly, but his expression always remained calm. Qinghe Xianfang is located on a vast island with a diameter of over a hundred miles. It is one of the largest islands in the Qinghe Archipelago. With Ye Linyuan's keen eyesight, he could tell at a glance that the Qinghe Immortal Pavilion was built relying on a second-grade lower-grade spiritual vein, and a second-grade formation was arranged on it. The power of the formation should be enough to resist attacks from the late stage of foundation building. "It seems that the Qinghe Immortal Sect should be considered a medium-level foundation-building force." Ye Linyuan whispered in his heart that among the forces at various levels above the foundation building stage in this world, the same level would often be divided into small, medium and large sects based on their different strengths. Take the foundation-building forces as an example. A small foundation-building sect or clan usually has only one or two foundation-building ancestors. Such forces often have a lack of successors. Once the foundation-building ancestor of the clan passes away, the clan will fall into complete decline. Medium-sized foundation-building forces have stronger foundations, and often have more than three foundation-building cultivators. The inheritance of such forces is orderly, and if they do not encounter irresistible disasters, they can at least maintain the sect's inheritance for hundreds of years. It is different for large foundation-building sects or clans. Such forces generally have at least ten foundation-building cultivators, and basically there will be someone in the late foundation-building stage. They may even be qualified to impact the Golden Core Immortal Sect. Ye Linyuan had an extraordinary vision. Just by taking a look at the Qinghe Market, he knew that the Qinghe Sect had at least three foundation-building cultivators, and its foundation was definitely not comparable to that of ordinary small foundation-building sects. "We have arrived at Qinghe Xianfang." As they approached the Qinghe Immortal House, Old Man Ye said solemnly, "There are all kinds of people in the Immortal House. You must follow me closely later. Remember not to show off your wealth." "My grandson understands." Ye Linyuan nodded and calmly withdrew his gaze. The boat quickly docked. Old Man Ye parked the boat, then spent some money to hire a mortal manager at the dock to look after it, and then took Ye Linyuan to the market. Arriving outside the market town, Ye Linyuan discovered that there were several Qi-cultivating monks standing in front of the market town gate. They were all Qi-cultivating monks in the middle stage with high cultivation base. The leading man was in the late stage of Qi training and seemed to know Old Man Ye. When he saw him coming, he smiled and said, "Brother Tianke, I haven't seen you come to Qinghe Xianfang for a long time." "It turns out to be Brother Jiang."
Old Man Ye smiled immediately, then took Ye Linyuan by the hand and introduced him, "This is my eldest grandson, Ye Linyuan." After he finished speaking, Old Man Ye looked at Ye Linyuan and said, "This senior is called Jiang Qingyan. He is a good friend of mine from early years. Why don't you meet him soon?" Following Old Man Ye's introduction, Ye Linyuan immediately understood the relationship between the two. Jiang Qingyan was a good friend of Old Man Ye when he was young. The two of them used to be independent cultivators who roamed the world together. Later, a monster riot broke out in the Qinghe Islands. Together, they killed a monster in the late stage of Qi training. They were rewarded with two Qinghe Immortal Orders for their contribution. Finally, Jiang Qingyan joined the Qinghe Immortal Sect. In that battle, Old Man Ye's wife died, and he felt extremely guilty about his wife's death. In addition, he had several children to take care of, so he never joined the Qinghe Immortal Sect. In despair, he bought Yejia Island, which led to the current Ye family. "So this is where the Qinghe Immortal Order came from." Ye Linyuan whispered in his heart, and then quickly bowed to Jiang Qingyan and said: "Junior greets Senior Jiang." "You're already practicing Qi at such a young age. You're truly a talented person." Jiang Qingyan smiled and nodded, then patted Ye Linyuan on the shoulder and said, "If you have any difficulties in the future, you can come to Qinghe Xianfang to find me." Upon seeing this, Old Man Ye exchanged greetings with Jiang Qingyan again. After a moment, Old Man Ye suddenly asked again, "I heard that the Qingling Shell Farm was attacked some time ago. I wonder if this is true?" "This matter..." Jiang Qingyan hesitated for a moment, then said carefully: "I don't know the specific situation, but I heard that a rare spiritual shell escaped. I don't know if the rumor is true." "Rare spiritual shell?" Upon hearing this, Ye Linyuan's eyes couldn't help but move slightly, and a hint of surprise appeared on his face. The Lingbei clan is a gentle demon clan, and is also one of the specialty resources of the Cangling Sea. Moreover, Lingbei is full of treasures. The Lingbei beads it produces can be used to make elixirs and medicines, and can also be used to make magical instruments to assist in spiritual practice. The meat of the shell is full of spiritual energy and is ten times more valuable than spiritual rice. After the shells are crushed, they are also excellent minerals for cultivating spiritual fields. Among the spiritual shells, according to their bloodlines and potentials, they are divided into four levels: spiritual shells, spiritual treasures, exotic treasures, and rare treasures. The most important thing is that the spiritual shells of the rare and precious level can even give birth to rare spiritual objects for foundation building. After refining, they can be forged into a superior special Taoist foundation. Its value is probably enough to make foundation building cultivators salivate over it. If such a rare spiritual clam escaped, even if it was only a first-level rare spiritual clam, it would be enough to drive the Qinghe Immortal Sect crazy. "A rare and valuable spiritual shell. Unfortunately, with my current strength, I am not qualified to fight for it." Ye Linyuan suppressed the thought with regret, but a hint of curiosity emerged in his eyes. Logically speaking, the rare spiritual clam is priceless and would be worshipped like an ancestor by the Qinghe Immortal Sect, but why did this rare spiritual clam escape? "This is illogical, unless the rare spiritual shell feels a great threat in the shell field of Qinghe Immortal Sect." "Could it be..." Ye Linyuan whispered in his heart, and seemed to understand something vaguely. Since the Qinghe Immortal Sect is named after the Qinghe, there must be a crane-like spiritual beast behind it. For such a flying spiritual beast, the rare spiritual shells are priceless treasures.
