Cangling Immortal Clan

"Thank you, clan leader. Xu Qiu will not let you down."

Ye Xuqiu took the precious pill and immediately went into seclusion to break through.

This breakthrough did not take long. Not long after, Ye Xuqiu successfully condensed his soul and broke through to the realm of half-step soul.

And after this breakthrough, Ye Xuqiu’s strength is no longer what it used to be.

After completing the breakthrough, he is almost invincible at the same level, and his combat power is probably slightly stronger than that of the Heavenly Demon Saint Emperor.

However, Ye Linyuan was not too excited about Ye Xuqiu's breakthrough. He knew very well that no matter how strong Ye Xuqiu's combat power was now, it was only close to the level of a pseudo-Lord of the Heaven.

Such strength is nothing compared to Ye Linyuan himself. He is more concerned about Ye Xuqiu's future potential.

Back to the topic, after Ye Xuqiu's breakthrough, Ye Linyuan didn't waste any more time and directly took Ye Xuqiu, Ye Yingxu, Shui Hanqing and other senior members of the Ye family and set off, crossing the vast continent and heading towards the Eastern Wilderness's immortal cultivation world.

With their cultivation level, they could tear through the void. Even the Eastern Wasteland hundreds of millions of miles away was not too far away. They arrived at the Eastern Wasteland's immortal cultivation world after just a few days.

"The Dao of heaven and earth is full of vigor, and the spiritual energy is also more abundant."

When Ye Linyuan first arrived in the Eastern Wilderness’ world of immortal cultivation, he immediately sensed something unusual.

He found that the cultivation environment in the Eastern Wilderness's immortal cultivation world seemed to be better and more suitable for cultivators to practice.

"I heard that the East Wasteland Cultivation Realm is the one with the least ancient forbidden areas in the Haotian Ancient Realm. In addition, the five elements here are all suitable for the growth of plants, so the cultivation environment is much better than other places."

Ye Yingxu looked around the Eastern Wasteland Immortal Cultivation World and spoke calmly.

Ye Linyuan nodded, then without saying a word, he led everyone through the void and arrived in front of the Tianyan Holy Mountain in Donghuang.

This barter conference was held in Tianyan Tower, one of the seven holy places in the Eastern Wilderness. The Tianyan Tower was an expert in the art of divination, and its branches were spread throughout the ancient world of Haotian.

Even in the Cangling Sea cultivation world where Ye Linyuan is located, there is a branch of Tianyan Tower.

"Fellow Daoist Ye, you have come to visit me. I am sorry that I failed to welcome you in person. Please forgive me..."

Just as Ye Linyuan's mind was wandering, a gentle voice came from the Tianyan Tower Holy Land in front of him.

He looked up and suddenly felt that the clouds between the sky and the earth were gradually dispersing. Among the distant mountains, a pavilion was floating in the clouds. A middle-aged man on the pavilion smiled and bowed to him, and spoke very politely.

"Master of Tianyan Tower."

Ye Linyuan seemed to be thinking about something, and for the first time he showed a look of surprise.

Legend has it that the Tianyan Tower has infinite heritage, and almost every generation can produce supreme giants who have achieved the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul. It is the most stable lineage in the Haotian Ancient Realm.

Logically speaking, Tianyan Tower holds the secrets of various forces and should be a thorn in the eyes of all major forces in the Haotian Ancient Realm.

However, this lineage only sells intelligence and never interferes in the disputes among major forces. Moreover, they are quite strict about the sale of intelligence and not all intelligence will be sold.

Coupled with some special reasons, the inheritance of Tianyan Building has been passed down to this day.

After all, the fact that Tianyan Tower had access to their intelligence made the major forces feel extremely unhappy, but sometimes they did need Tianyan Tower's intelligence.

For example, most of Ye Linyuan’s information about the Jiexu Forbidden Land and other major ancient forbidden areas was traded from the Nanling Branch of Tianyan Tower.

Of course, these were not the points that made Ye Linyuan feel different. What really surprised Ye Linyuan was that the master of Tianyan Tower seemed to have unfathomable cultivation level, and was definitely not the Pseudo-Heavenly Monarch who had just broken through as described in the legend.

Thinking of this, Ye Linyuan said calmly: "How can I be so worthy that the owner of the building would personally welcome me?"

"The Ye family has two half-step Yuanshen, and dominates the two continents of Nanling and Cangling Sea. Its foundation is one of the best in the Haotian Ancient Realm. It is naturally worthy of me to personally welcome it."

The owner of Tianyan Tower replied indifferently, politely invited Ye Linyuan into the pavilion, and then personally brewed a cup of tea for Ye Linyuan.

Ye Linyuan glanced at the teacup, picked it up and took a sip, then asked calmly, "Fellow Daoist, you know my lineage very well."

"We in Tianyan Tower are very familiar with the information about the Haotian Ancient Realm, but we didn't care about you at first. After all, the Red Dragon Sword Lord and the Xuanyuan True Lord are just somewhat similar."

"It was not until later when you killed Master Yuanyue that we confirmed that you two were the same person."

The owner of Tianyan Tower spoke slowly and described his understanding of Ye Linyuan.

When Ye Linyuan heard this, his pupils narrowed slightly, and then he calmly asked, "So, fellow Daoist sold my information to the Yingyue Fairy in the East China Sea?"

Upon hearing this, the owner of Tianyan Tower's expression changed slightly, and then he smiled bitterly and said, "That's why I came here to apologize."

"How much does he know?"

Ye Linyuan spoke calmly, with a stern look in his eyes.

The Tianyan Tower Master casually handed a piece of information to Ye Linyuan, and then said: "My fellow Taoist was not strong enough in the past, so I was going to give this information to him."

"But later, when I calculated the secrets of the universe, I vaguely sensed that something was wrong, so I prepared another piece of intelligence."

The owner of Tianyan Tower said this and handed over another piece of information and put it in Ye Linyuan's hands.

Ye Linyuan took a look and couldn't help but look thoughtful.

The two pieces of intelligence information from Tianyan Building are different, and both are true.

Only the first one recorded Ye Linyuan's true realm, as well as most of the background and strength of the Ye family's immortal clan. The information was very detailed and accurate. Except for the actual combat power, the basic realm was clear.

The second piece of intelligence is more vague. A lot of information about Ye Linyuan is marked as unknown and uncertain. It is recommended that the buyer verify and speculate on his own.

Generally speaking, when Tianyanlou does not want to completely offend certain people, it will sell this kind of vague information, which is considered a kind of protection for the people who buy the information.

Although both pieces of information were true, the difference was huge for Ye Linyuan.

If it was the first more accurate information, it would be very likely that Fairy Yingyue would be aware of the danger and take action in advance to clip Ye Linyuan's wings.

However, the second piece of intelligence was not accurate enough, and there was too much unclear information that needed to be verified by Fairy Yingyue herself.

However, the East China Sea is too far away from Chixiazhou, and it is also separated from the Cangling Sea by the Meteorite Forbidden Land. If you want to get accurate information, it will take more than a few hundred years to check it several times.

Fairy Yingyue was also worried that if she acted rashly, Ye Linyuan would hide in the Cangling Sea and would not come out, so she did not dare to act easily against the Ye family members.

This gave the Ye family many years of development time, allowing the Ye family to successfully survive the most dangerous hundreds of years.

"Fellow Taoist is interested."

Ye Linyuan nodded, then put away the two pieces of information.

Upon seeing this, the Tianyan Tower Master couldn't help but smile and said, "I came to see you specially this time because I actually have something to remind you of."

"Oh?" Ye Linyuan's eyes flickered. "Come in. I observed the sky at night and vaguely saw that a disaster was coming. I'm afraid a catastrophe is about to come."

The owner of Tianyan Tower spoke slowly and leisurely, with an extremely solemn look in his eyes.

Ye Linyuan was a little surprised, and then asked: "Catastrophe, could it be that the black tide is coming back?"

“That’s not the case.” Tianyan Tower Master shook his head and said with a wry smile: “If the black tide comes again, I’m afraid there will be no need for you and me to struggle.”

"This time it's just to remind you that some old monsters in the forbidden area are about to awaken."

"The old monster is about to wake up?"

Ye Linyuan's expression changed slightly, and he couldn't help but say, "You mean, those sleeping Yuanshen monsters are likely to wake up soon?"

"Yes." The Tianyan Tower Master nodded, and then said: "The Golden Age is coming, and a large number of half-step Yuanshen and pseudo-Tianjun will be born or revived. This will be a great supplement for those old monsters."

When Ye Linyuan heard this, he couldn't help but feel his scalp tingling.

The world of cultivating immortals is flourishing nowadays. With all the major forces willing to consume their resources, there are successive Half-Step Souls that have been successfully promoted. I am afraid that in the near future, there will be more and more Pseudo-Heavenly Monarchs that will be born.

But beneath this flourishing scene, there is a hint of terrible crisis.

These promoted half-step souls and pseudo-kings are making advance preparations for the Golden Age, but for those dormant old monsters, they are also a great tonic for restoring their vitality.

Not only them, but the entire world of immortal cultivation will probably experience an extremely terrible ordeal.

Thinking of this, Ye Linyuan couldn't help but ask, "Daoyou, have you figured out when this catastrophe will break out?"

"I do not know either."

The Tianyan Tower Master shook his head, then sighed and said, "The level involved behind this is definitely not something I can touch."

“However, most of those old monsters don’t have much lifespan left. I’m afraid they will only appear before the golden age begins, or when someone attacks the Yuanshen Tianjun.”

Ye Linyuan nodded, a burning look in his eyes.

But he stood up calmly and said, "Thank you for your reminder, fellow Taoist."

"These reminders are not very useful." Tianyan Tower Master said, and then said with sad eyes: "Once they are born, there will not be many places for them to hide in the vast Haotian Ancient Realm."

"The only thing you can do is to improve your strength and increase your trump cards as quickly as possible. Only when you are strong enough will you have a chance to save your life in the future."

"I understand."

Ye Linyuan bowed to the master of Tianyan Tower, then looked up at the distant sky, a ripple in his eyes.

Upon seeing this, the Tianyan Tower Master smiled and said, "An old friend has arrived. You can meet him."

Ye Linyuan's eyes moved slightly, and he immediately stepped forward, only to see a young man in a green Taoist robe walking towards him.

That man had a slender figure, a clear and handsome face, and there was a surging vitality in his body, and a transcendent aura brewing.

"The Ten Thousand Years of Evergreen Technique, this is the legendary supreme giant, Changqing Zhenjun."

"His cultivation..."

Ye Linyuan's thoughts kept emerging, and a hint of surprise flashed through his mind.

At the same time, the owner of Tianyan Tower stepped forward and introduced: "Come, come, let me introduce you. This is the number one independent cultivator in the Haotian Ancient Realm, Fellow Daoist Meng, the True Lord of Changqing."

"This is Fellow Daoist Ye, the Red Dragon Sword Lord, who is renowned in the Nanling Immortal Cultivation World. Both of you are outstanding people who have risen and fallen from the limelight. Now is a good opportunity for us to get to know each other."

The Changqing Zhenjun looked up at Ye Linyuan, took a closer look, and said with a smile: "Fellow Daoist, you have a strong medicinal fragrance. I think you have been promoted to the fourth-level super-grade spiritual plant husband for many years."

"Meng is also a spiritual plant husband. We can exchange what we have and what we need in the future and trade rare medicinal species."

Ye Linyuan smiled slightly and said politely: "I have only been a Taoist for two thousand years, so how can I compare to your profound foundation."

Although this was modesty, Ye Linyuan was not bragging when he said this.

As early as Ye Linyuan's previous life, this Changqing Zhenjun had already practiced for six thousand years and had been in the Nascent Soul stage for more than four thousand years.

Now, two thousand years have passed, and Lord Changqing's cultivation has broken through the realm of Pseudo-Lord of the Heaven, which is truly unfathomable.

The life of True Lord Changqing was a legend. It was said that when he was young, he practiced the Wanzai Changqing Gong, and along the way he learned the art of planting spiritual plants and alchemy, and finally he achieved the great perfection of the Nascent Soul at the age of less than two thousand years old.

About three thousand years later, he broke through to become a fourth-level super-grade spiritual plant husband and a fourth-level super-grade alchemist.

Now that five thousand years have passed, no one knows what kind of foundation Changqing Zhenjun has accumulated. Ye Linyuan even suspects that the wealth of Nanling Medicine King may not even be one tenth of that of Changqing Zhenjun.

Therefore, Ye Linyuan was not too surprised that Changqing Zhenjun secretly broke through the Pseudo Tianjun.

There have long been rumors in the Haotian Ancient Realm that Changqing Zhenjun may not be the strongest in combat, but he is definitely one of the few people who has the greatest hope of breaking through to Yuanshen Tianjun.

Because in today's era, the importance of resources is definitely far more important than qualifications. After all, almost all beings who can cultivate to the great perfection of the Nascent Soul have the potential to achieve enlightenment and become a spiritual master.

"You and I are both fourth-level super-grade spiritual plant husbands, so there is no need to be too modest."

Changqing Zhenjun smiled slightly, then looked at Ye Xuqiu behind Ye Linyuan and said, "Since you can cultivate a half-step Yuanshen, your spiritual planting skills are probably not inferior to mine."

"If this golden age had not come, you would have become a guest of honor for all the major forces in the world of immortal cultivation for thousands of years to come."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, everyone arrived at the Tianyan Immortal City.

The owner of Tianyan Tower personally invited them to a cave to practice, and then said: "The Exchange Conference will start in some time, and you can visit Tianyan Immortal City for a while."

"I still have to entertain some distinguished guests, so I won't stay here any longer."

After watching the owner of Tianyan Tower leave, Ye Linyuan and Changqing Zhenjun chatted for a while, and then they each returned to their cave abodes.

At this time, Ye Xuqiu said calmly: "This Changqing Zhenjun has at least several extremely strong spirit beast auras."

"And the lowest level of cultivation is probably already at the Nascent Soul Great Perfection, and there are even some who are above the Half-Step Primordial Spirit level."

Ye Linyuan nodded, and then said: "In the past five thousand years, Changqing Zhenjun has been the only active fourth-level super-grade spiritual plant husband in the Haotian Ancient Realm."

"I even suspect that he may have been promoted to a fourth-level super-grade spiritual plant husband six thousand years ago."

"If this is true, his background is probably far beyond the imagination of ordinary people. It would not be surprising if he could cultivate several Nascent Soul Great Perfection or even Half-step Primordial Spirit." (End of this chapter)
