Chapter 1203: Chapter 825: Soul Guardian Blood Escape, Nine Yin Profound Soul Secret Manual

Inside the grotto heaven, because the three Golden Core old demons had a total of six storage bags, Ye Jingcheng simply opened all the storage bags.

Immediately, a large pile of treasures accumulated within the grotto heaven.

This also drew the attention of a group of spirit beast wood demons.

The most eye-catching was not the magical treasures or spirit banners, but rather the spirit stones and coffins, piled like small mountains, quite impressive.

Ye Jingcheng first checked the spirit stones and found that within the three people’s storage bags, there were eleven million spirit stones.

Of course, don’t think it’s less than the Cyan Spring Sect’s spirit stones, after all, Ye Jingcheng has yet to check the harvest from the Demon Jade Mountain treasury.

Counting it all, there would certainly be millions of spirit stones.

And these coffins were special coffins, and inside the coffins were many corpses, but Ye Jingcheng took a glance and put them all away.

These corpses had not been refined; they were clearly killed and then placed in coffins, infused with various Profound Iron materials and special spiritual liquids to increase the corpse’s strength.

Ye Jingcheng even saw three child corpses; these children were not old, at most fifteen or sixteen years, similar to Ye Qingnian and Ye Qingfeng.

Ye Jingcheng also recalled the memory of Ghost Rage Zhenren, these three corpses were likely from children born in the same year, same month, and same day with a Yin attribute physique, and their spirit roots were at least dual spirit roots, used for refining the Five Sons United Demon.

Ye Jingcheng himself naturally wouldn’t continue to refine this Five Sons United Demon, he planned to ask about merit exchange for it; if it’s possible, he would exchange it, otherwise he would keep it for the clan members of the Eastern Domain, to be used if someone can use it, or keep it if no one can.

As for giving it to Ye Jingxin and Ye Qingxu, that wouldn’t work, as it might reveal their identity.

Regarding breakthrough spiritual medicine, Ye Jingcheng found two portions of Purple Mansion Jade Liquid and five Foundation Establishment Pills.

This counted as a complete surprise for the Ye Family; the only pity was that the treasure from the Cyan Spring Sect was divided into two storage bags, and the one containing the Purple Mansion Jade Liquid Foundation Establishment Pill was taken by Feng Daoran on that day.

Otherwise, the Ye Family could have obtained more Purple Mansion Jade Liquid and Foundation Establishment Pills this time.

Through soul search, Ye Jingcheng also knew what happened that day.

Qing Liu Old Demon detonated Qing Sha Old Demon’s corpse and escaped, Xu Qiukui insisted on pursuing, and in the end, although he killed Qing Liu Old Demon, he got blocked, chased for hundreds of thousands of miles, and was finally caught at Camel King Peak.

Everyone held the same thought as Ye Jingcheng, wanting to launch a surprise attack on the Ghost Spirit Ship, but unfortunately, their strength was slightly insufficient.

And worst of all, Xu Qiukui directly turned around and fled alone on the spiritual ship.

This led the others to lose heart in breaking the Ghost Spirit Ship, each breaking through separately.

They were also pursued by Golden Core True Masters, Ye Jingcheng wasn’t sure how many survived, but among them, if possible, he hoped Master Zi Fu was safe.

Ye Jingcheng shook his head, dispersing unnecessary thoughts, and began to evaluate the remaining spiritual medicine and materials.

Among the elixirs, Ye Jingcheng found two Tier Four Water Essence Pills, and three Tier Four Golden Bone Pills, the former could enhance the true essence of water attribute cultivators, while the latter tempered the body.

Ye Jingcheng had both of these pill formulas.

After taking a look, Ye Jingcheng shook his head; the Golden Bone Pill was decent, considered medium level.

But the two Water Essence Pills were refined in a very crude manner, barely usable, as if they were made just after breaking through to a Tier Four Alchemist.

Aside from the Tier Four Spirit Pills, Ye Jingcheng didn’t think much of the remaining spiritual medicine and elixirs.

None of the main materials for several advancement pills were found, only some auxiliary medicines were discovered.

There were two Celestial Essence Ganoderma with two thousand years worth of medicinal age, but they weren’t well-preserved, losing some potency, likely depreciating their value greatly.

After looking through the spiritual pills and medicine, Ye Jingcheng examined the jade talismans and magical treasures.

Although evil cultivation techniques were not needed by the Ye Family, Ye Jingcheng was particularly interested in these secret techniques of the evil cultivators.

Techniques like the previous Tri-Element Blood Escape, the Bone Transformation Pill formula, and the Soul-Destroying Needle Secret Technique all came from these evil cultivators.

After watching for a while, Ye Jingcheng’s face was full of delight; he kept three jade talismans in his hand.

The first jade talisman contained a secret technique from Ghost Rage Zhenren, called Soul Guardian Blood Escape, an Earth Tier secret technique, a lot more domineering compared to the Tri-Element Blood Escape.

As long as the soul guardians are gathered in advance, at a critical moment, its escape speed is astonishing.

Of course, the consumption was not just blood and energy, but also divine soul.

The principle of the secret technique is somewhat similar to a cultivator’s self-detonation, capable of unleashing power beyond their original strength.

Once the Soul Guardian Blood Escape is executed, it can’t be stopped until the soul guardians are completely annihilated, at which point it stops.

Ye Jingcheng was also relieved that when dealing with Xu Qiukui and Ghost Rage Zhenren, he was cautious enough; if he hadn’t used the spirit treasure, even if the opponent’s strength was insufficient, they could have escaped with this Soul Guardian Blood Escape.

At that time, even if Ye Jingcheng had summoned the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor, it might have allowed Ghost Rage Zhenren a chance to escape.

Aside from the Soul Guardian Blood Escape, the other two secret techniques were also quite excellent; one was the Blood-Tracking Spirit Seal, a seal that is colorless and tasteless, dropped with blood; if not avoided, even Nascent Soul cultivators would find it extremely difficult to remove.

The last jade talisman contained a divine soul type cultivation technique, the Nine Yin Profound Soul Secret Manual, considered the most precious jade talisman Ye Jingcheng had.

This jade talisman came from Master Mo Yu, using the Nine Yin Qi to temper and nourish the divine soul.

With this cultivation technique, Ye Jingcheng even felt that at the early stage of Golden Core, his divine soul might break through to the late stage of Golden Core.

Ye Jingcheng had previously obtained similar techniques, the Celestial Soul Technique, but since the Celestial Soul Technique was incomplete, its usefulness diminished from the Purple Mansion stage.

Now, this technique, even when cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage, would be effective.

The enhancement of the Divine Soul concerns not only cultivation but also the Alchemy Skill, the activation of Spirit Treasures, and the number of Soul Contracts Ye Jingcheng can have.

To Ye Jingcheng, the value of this Nine Yin Profound Soul Secret Manual is hardly inferior to that of the Five Demons Nascent Soul Secret Technique.

Besides these three Jade Talismans of secret techniques, the remaining cultivation techniques are also reasonable, but not very suitable for the Ye Family.

Ye Jingcheng plans to make a copy and then submit them all.

The last contribution earned him a Five Phase Furnace; this time, Ye Jingcheng is also somewhat anticipating getting some good treasures. According to the contribution exchange list from the Mansion Master, Ye Jingcheng has his eyes on over a dozen items.

Ye Jingcheng’s attention finally rested on the magical treasures.

Among them, there are two Tier Four High-Grade Treasures, both belonging to Ghost Rage Zhenren: the Ghost King Banner and the Hundred Ghosts Carrying Coffin Diagram.

The former restricts the cultivation techniques of cultivators, and Ye Jingcheng also plans to turn it in directly, while he has witnessed the power of the Hundred Ghosts Carrying Coffin Diagram and intends to keep it for himself.

There are two Tier Four Middle-Grade Treasures, one is Mo Yunzi’s Black Light Mirror, the other is Ghost Rage Zhenren’s Soul-Protecting Jade.

The former is somewhat similar to the Golden Light Mirror, while the latter is a Divine Soul defense treasure that protects the Divine Soul.

Such magical treasures are much more precious in the Cultivation Realm than regular defense treasures, valued at least 20% higher.

Even with so many magical treasures, Ye Jingcheng only sees this one defense treasure.

There are four Tier Four Lower-Grade Treasures, three of which are Mo Yunzi’s Rakshasa Swords, and one is Mo Yunzi’s Cyan Bone Shield.

Ye Jingcheng is somewhat interested in the Rakshasa Swords; after all, his current Golden Glaze Sword is greatly damaged, and repairing it would require some effort.

As for the Cyan Bone Shield, Ye Jingcheng plans to leave it in the Ye Family’s treasury for Ye Xuecang or Ye Xuefan.

Besides the magical treasures, Ye Jingcheng’s final gaze also fell on two black Spirit Jade Beds.

These two Spirit Jade Beds are made from the local specialty of Demon Jade Mountain, Primordial Demon Jade.

However, unlike ordinary Primordial Demon Jade, these two Demon Jade Beds are made from millennia-old Primordial Demon Crystal Jade.

Comparable to Tier Four Spirit Materials, they are not only enough to suppress Foundation Establishment Heart Demons but also Golden Core Heart Demons.

This naturally delights Ye Jingcheng immensely, as the two Demon Jade Beds are enough to allow two Ye Family cultivators to simultaneously break through to the Golden Core.

Ye Jingcheng carefully collected the Demon Jade Beds as well.

The remaining Spirit Materials seemed rather ordinary.

Ye Jingcheng then retrieved the remaining Storage Bags from the Peach Wood Demon and the warehouse Storage Bags from Demon Jade Mountain.

In the end, he managed to acquire four million Spirit Stones, thirty ordinary Primordial Demon Jade Beds, two pieces of Tier Four Primordial Demon Jade, three portions of Purple Mansion Jade Liquid, one Gold Condensing Fruit, fifteen hundred ordinary Primordial Demon Jades, thirty Foundation Establishment Pills, eleven portions of Earthly Fiend Qi, and also quite a few Tier One to Three spiritual medicines.

This left Ye Jingcheng feeling as if he had stumbled into overnight wealth.

He calculated and found that just in Spirit Stones, he had twenty-five million.

Additionally, he had a set of Tier Four Spirit-Attracting Stones and Spirit Gathering Array, and two sets of Tier Three High-Grade Spirit-Attracting Stones and Spirit Gathering Arrays.

This means that Ye Jingcheng could not only upgrade the Spirit Vein in his Grotto Heaven but also upgrade the Spirit Veins in Sha Huang Mountain and Black Cloud Mountain.

The harvest this time was so significant that even when he meticulously considered it, he felt it seemed somewhat dream-like.

After organizing the treasures, Ye Jingcheng also stood up, looking toward the distant Earth Dragon Demon Emperor.

He specially took out three Golden Bone Pills among them.

These three Spirit Pills are not needed for the current Ye Family; after all, there is not a single Tier Four Body Cultivator, and Tier Three Purple Mansion Body Cultivators cannot withstand the medicinal power of Tier Four Golden Bone Pills.

Forcibly consuming them would make them into Poison Pills instead of Spirit Pills.

"I didn’t take action in this matter, so there’s no need..." the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor gestured dismissively.

"Dragon Ancestor, this is what you deserve, it’s just a pity there aren’t many suitable for you!" Ye Jingcheng maintained.

The Earth Dragon Demon Emperor then accepted it, looking at Ye Jingcheng, feeling that the latter’s transformation was truly astonishing.

It’s important to know that less than twenty years since Ye Jingcheng broke through to the Golden Core, his combat power has already grown enough to kill those in the Middle Stage of the Golden Core.

And its twenty years might just have been a relatively long slumber.

Given some time, it’s reckoned Ye Jingcheng might not take a century to catch up.

Ye Jingcheng still wanted to chat a bit more with the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor.

But he was soon drawn to the Peach Wood and Dream-Devouring Worm inside the Grotto Heaven.

Indeed, both the Peach Wood and Dream-Devouring Worm began their breakthrough after consuming Spirit Pills and Treasure Light.

The Peach Wood was enveloped in Spiritual Light, while the Dream-Devouring Worm slumbered within a Nightmare of Black Fog.

There’s no need to explain much about the Peach Wood; it has been devouring the Wood Heart consistently. The Grotto Heaven Stone Spirit had already broken through to the Late Stage of Third Tier, so its breakthrough was rather late.

As for the Dream-Devouring Worm, evidently having consumed so many Tier Four Divine Souls, it had reached a critical point and began breaking through.

Once both complete their breakthroughs, by then they will both reach the Late Stage of Third Tier.

This naturally is another joyous occasion.
