The Taihang Mountain Range is located at the northernmost part of the Great Yu Cultivation Realm, under the jurisdiction of the Yan Kingdom’s boundary.
The mountains overlap, rising and falling.
It is said that even a Nascent Soul True Monarch has never explored the boundary of the Taihang Mountain Range.
One must know that in this Cultivation Realm, the realms are divided into: Qi Cultivation, Foundation Establishment, Purple Mansion, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Divinity Transformation!
And Divinity Transformation Cultivators can undergo Feathered Ascension and ascend to the Spirit Realm; even a Nascent Soul True Monarch cannot survey Taihang Mountain Range, which shows its vastness.
Of course, there are also rumors that the Demon Emperors on Jade Dragon Peak of Taihang Mountain Range are too formidable.
Ye Jingcheng naturally cannot verify this, he just leaned against the wooden vessel on the left, hearing the wind whistling past his ears, while his eyes sharply scanned the front.
Though the Gang Wind was howling, it could not reach the four.
On the wooden vessel, there was a shallow Spirit Shield that could block the Gang Wind.
At this moment, the Spiritual Ship had passed over one hill after another, presenting taller peaks one after another in view.
What he once thought was the highest Lingyun Peak now seemed sparse and ordinary within this mountain range.
The Jade Ring Rat was also nestled with Ye Jingcheng.
A horse will die if it runs while seeing mountains in front; this fits the scenario, as, after flying for a full day, traversing unknown stretches of hills, the four finally reached the foot of the mountain range just as the sky turned dark.
"Let’s rest for the night, and enter the mountains tomorrow!" Ye Jingyu started searching carefully in front of a small hill.
Soon, he found a cave, which seemed to be frequently used by the Ye Family. Ye Jingyu carefully observed the branches on the ground at the cave entrance, seeing no anomalies, he led the three inside.
"Don’t disturb the branches on the ground; these are markings made by the elders!" Ye Jingyu said, and others nodded in agreement.
Inside the cave, it was very dry, without any dampness. Further inside, several Moonlight Stones, which naturally emit light, were placed.
Only then did the interior of the cave become bright.
"Everyone, release your Spirit Beasts!" Ye Jingyu instructed again, and then he took out a set of Array Disc and Array Banner at the cave entrance and began to arrange them with great mystery.
"Old Four is also an Array Master, very proficient!" Ye Jing Yong noticed Ye Jingcheng’s curiosity, patted him on the shoulder, and explained.
Ye Jingcheng nodded, turning his gaze towards Ye Jing Yong’s Flying Cloud Leopard and Cyan-Scaled Snake, finding both quite similar to their status in the Demon Hunting Hall.
The Flying Cloud Leopard grew significantly, originally the size of a puppy, now it has reached the size of a regular domestic dog.
The Cyan-Scaled Snake’s color only deepened; noticing Ye Jingcheng observing the Cyan-Scaled Snake, Ye Jingli felt slightly embarrassed, as Ye Jingcheng still had the Red Flame Fox to care for, and the Jade Ring Rat’s cultivation was better than his.
One must understand that he is an Artifact Refiner, comparable to Ye Jingcheng in earning Spirit Stones.
Ye Jingcheng naturally did not know Ye Jingli’s inner thoughts, as he was currently comparing the growth progress of the Spirit Beasts.
In his heart, he further understood the Ancient Book inside him.
Clearly, that Spiritual Light can stimulate Demon Beasts’ growth, possibly complementing the Spirit Nourishing Pill.
Having arrived at this conclusion, Ye Jingcheng believed he should use less Spiritual Light on the Jade Ring Rat in the future; despite the Red Flame Fox’s unique talent being acceptable, since Ye Family has no other Red Flame Fox, the Jade Ring Rat was different, as many Ye Family Members possess them, too fast a growth would be difficult to explain away.
Quickly, Ye Jingyu finished setting up the Array and came back.
The four exchanged Beast Taming insights again.
Of course, they mainly consulted Ye Jingcheng, as despite the Jade Ring Rat having plumped considerably, its shallow Spiritual Light exceeded other Spirit Beasts.
Ye Jingcheng naturally deflected with Spirit Nourishing Pill and Spirit Fragrance as an excuse, since this was verified by his Grandpa Nine, Ye Haitian.
As for more, he pleaded ignorance.
After all, he is considered a Beast Taming novice.
Conversely, he acquired quite a few peculiar Beast Taming knowledge from Ye Jing Yong and Ye Jingyu.
Apart from Beast Taming knowledge, Ye Jingcheng also asked Ye Jingyu about cultivation tips.
He was at Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer, Ye Jingyu at Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer, Ye Jing Yong at Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer, Ye Jingli at Qi Cultivation Fifth Layer; thus, even Ye Jingli could guide him.
Ye Jingcheng was very humble, and the three instructed him meticulously without reservation, shedding light on previously obscure points.
Late at night, the four still took turns as night guards, with Ye Jingcheng taking the first shift since he only operated the wooden vessel for half of the day.
With the company of four Spirit Beasts and the cave’s Array, the task wasn’t heavy.
They hadn’t ventured deep into the mountain range yet, making Demon Beasts hard to encounter, and any wild beasts couldn’t get through the Array.
After one watch passed, Ye Jingli came to change Ye Jingcheng’s shift.
"Jingcheng, can I purchase some Spirit Nourishing Pills from you? At the family’s Spirit Pill pricing." Ye Jingli finally spoke, clearly acknowledging Ye Jingcheng’s words regarding Spirit Pills infused with Spirit Fragrance.
"Sure." Ye Jingcheng nodded. According to the pill-selling rules, he was selling to the family at one Contribution Point, equivalent to one Spirit Stone.
However, selling to Ye Family Members would cost one and a half Spirit Stones per pill, giving him some profit.
"Brother Liu, I don’t have much, here are three pills, let’s say four Spirit Stones!" Ye Jingcheng offered a Pill Bottle.
Inside were three Spirit Nourishing Pills, the bottle opened, and a fragrant aroma spread.
Ye Jingli was overjoyed.
"Jingcheng, I’m not going to thank you much, I can now refine Tier One Lower-grade Spiritual Artifacts, so if you have the materials, I’ll create them for free!" Ye Jingli promised with great joy.
With the transaction complete, Ye Jingcheng ventured deep into the cave, beginning to slowly practice his cultivation technique. His technique was called Li Fire Scripture, a Yellow Tier Middle Grade Cultivation Technique, considered average within Ye Family, not fast in cultivation, and its Spiritual Power wasn’t consolidated.
The only benefit is better proficiency in Fire Manipulation, making it more suited for becoming an Alchemy Master or Artifact Refiner, as Ye Jingli also cultivated this technique.
The Spiritual Power of Li Fire Scripture was extremely warm, driving away the nighttime mountain chills as it coursed through the meridians.
By the end of one Circulation, Ye Jingcheng sweated considerably.
With an uneventful night, the moon quietly disappeared, and the second day arrived swiftly!
The four reappeared at the cave entrance, yet this time, no Spiritual Ship was taken out.
In the Taihang Mountain Range, flying is a major taboo.
After all, flying Demon Beasts abound within the range, flying in the air makes it easy to attract Demon Beasts.
Thus, the four employed Light Body Skill, maintaining formation as they darted deeper into the mountain range.
At the forefront were the two Flying Cloud Leopards, with the Jade Ring Rat perched on Ye Jingcheng’s shoulder.
At this moment, the Jade Ring Rat’s ability shone, squeaking frantically at any sound, showing urgency. Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs novel⁂fire.net
Upon hearing this, Ye Jingyu would alter direction.
, after another half day, the four were greeted by a very tranquil valley.
The valley was extremely secluded, hidden behind several great mountains.
It was lush and peaceful.
Upon finding a good spot, Ye Jingyu began arranging at the valley entrance again.
"The valley possesses a low-lying spring and a small Tier One Lower Grade Spiritual Vein, sufficient to attract numerous Tier One Lower Grade Demon Beasts, it was the old nest of two Flying Cloud Leopards!" Ye Jingyu explained while setting up.
After Ye Jingyu completed the Array setup, Ye Jing Yong strode into the valley, but Ye Jingyu and Ye Jingcheng stopped him.
"Brother, let’s investigate further!"
