Myriad Spirits Immortal Clan

Golden morning light poured down from the sky, illuminating the vermilion glazed tiles with a golden-red glow.

Streams of cultivators' spiritual light landed before the spirit palace, exchanging greetings as they walked inside.

At that moment, Ye Jingcheng was also among them. Many greeted him along the way, but he had only met them once, knew their names, but didn't have any deep connections.

So he politely returned the greetings before continuing toward the palace.

"Fellow Daoist Ye, you've come out of seclusion?" A voice unexpectedly sounded.

Ye Jingcheng focused his gaze, and it was indeed the Profound Puppet True Lord.

However, compared to more than a decade ago, the Profound Puppet True Lord seemed much more weathered, no longer possessing the vibrant spirit and graceful bearing that Ye Jingcheng had first witnessed.

"Fellow Daoist Xuan Kui, how have you been these past ten years?" Ye Jingcheng asked, noticing the other's hesitant expression.

"So-so, I suppose, but I won't be able to drink Fellow Daoist Jiang's Azure Dragon Brew anymore," the Profound Puppet True Lord said with considerable grief.

Upon hearing this, Ye Jingcheng was stunned. He couldn't help but recall the figure who had given him spiritual wine and accompanied him to Southern Barbaric State to seize the Myriad Year Frost Marrow Liquid.

He remained silent for a long time.

"Fellow Daoist Jiang also sent me some Evergreen Whisker Carp, but without Fellow Daoist Jiang's wine, it's ultimately lacking," the Profound Puppet True Lord continued.

"Do you know who was responsible?" Ye Jingcheng didn't offer any comfort. He knew that the other's feelings stemmed not only from Jiang Daorong's death but also from the shared sorrow of the Nascent Soul cultivators in Southern Wasteland State.

Of the five Nascent Souls who had gathered at the previous Southern Wasteland State Nascent Soul Assembly, two had already died, leaving only the Liu family's True Lord Liu Yuan, the Profound Puppet True Lord, and himself.

As the disciple of a God Transformation Divine Lord, Ye Jingcheng was actually in greater danger, but because of his background in a righteous sect, he didn't need to take many risks.

Moreover, near the spatial node, Ye Jingcheng had also gained quite a few unexpected benefits.

The Ye family's clansmen, like him, only operated near Profound Bull City, mostly earning a living by trading spirit beasts and crafting spirit talismans and magic treasures.

Although the profits were smaller, it was the safest approach for the Ye family.

After all, what the Ye family lacked most were high-level spirit beasts and spirit insects; they weren't particularly short on resources.

"I don't know, I only know it happened in Thunder Origin State," the Profound Puppet True Lord shook his head, but quickly continued:

"Fellow Daoist Ye has been in seclusion for ten years, your gains must be considerable. I wonder if you would be willing to take me along on your next trip."

"Of course, as long as Fellow Daoist doesn't think I'll bring disaster," Ye Jingcheng nodded upon hearing the Profound Puppet True Lord's words.

This assembly was supposedly being held because of a demonic corpse, gathering various Nascent Souls to carry out a corpse-slaying plan.

As a disciple of True Origin Divine Lord, Ye Jingcheng would likely be assigned a relatively easy task again.

Ye Jingcheng was well aware of this and would humbly accept it.

He could see through Ye Jingcheng less and less, otherwise, he wouldn't have made this suggestion.

The two entered a grand hall together.

Above the hall, True Lord Xing Yuan and True Lord Yun Tan were present, along with one Nascent Soul Peak cultivator each from the Wang and Zhao families. The four of them were the initiators of this assembly.

The entire hall had gathered more than thirty Nascent Souls, although the number was less than when they arrived, it was still quite impressive.

One should know that in the Eastern Region where the Ye family was before, excluding the Penglai Sect, the remaining sects combined only had thirty or so Nascent Souls on the surface.

And now here, there must be people in seclusion, and some have fallen in this operation.

Moreover, it was clear that some people had not yet arrived.

"Fellow Daoist Ye."

As Ye Jingcheng walked in, many Nascent Souls greeted him.

Even True Lord Xing Yuan spoke, "Junior Brother Ye doesn't need to sit so far back. Fellow Daoist Yun Tan has asked several times over the years, wanting to exchange insights on the Dao of Alchemy with you."

Hearing this, Ye Jingcheng realized that he had become accustomed to sitting in the back.

But in fact, he was now a disciple of True Origin Divine Lord, if he still sat in the back, then the other cultivators would be even more afraid to sit in the front seats.

No wonder that after he came in, those cultivators who had greeted him before greeted him again.

It was clear that they had seen through his desire to stay in the back.

Ye Jingcheng eventually sat next to Liu Zhoumu, who was now sizing him up with considerable surprise.

"Fellow Daoist Ye is truly exceptionally talented, we can't compare," Liu Zhoumu had clearly seen that Ye Jingcheng's body cultivation had broken through to the Nascent Soul stage.

One should know that there were already not many cultivators who practiced both law and body, and even fewer Nascent Souls who practiced both.

For Ye Jingcheng to be able to do it in just ten short years, in addition to good fortune, his talent must also be excellent.

One should know that even body cultivation has bottlenecks.

It's just that Ye Jingcheng didn't know if it was because he controlled too many spirit creatures, and his physical body was usually tempered quite a bit, so he hadn't encountered any bottlenecks all along.

"Alright, almost everyone has arrived. Today, there's only one matter: there is a fifth-order peak Demonic Bloodscale Flood Dragon demonic corpse in the Sky Insect World. Its cultivation is so strong that it's not something that two or three ordinary Nascent Soul Peaks can resist."

"The opponent has also repeatedly killed Nascent Souls from our Great Yu Four Sects. This time, gathering everyone is both for revenge and for a great opportunity," True Lord Xing Yuan finally spoke after the hall reached thirty-seven people.

As soon as these words came out, everyone naturally looked at each other, after all, for them, these early-stage and mid-stage Nascent Souls, going up against this Bloodscale Flood Dragon demonic corpse would probably be like sending themselves to their deaths.

If they were really asked to go, they would naturally hesitate.

"Everyone, if you don't want to deal with this matter today, then you can only spend your days near Profound Bull City in the future. Your bodies and Nascent Souls are the greatest nourishment for this demonic corpse to break through to God Transformation," True Lord Xing Yuan said, noticing everyone's expressions.

As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces became even more unsightly, but they also knew that they really needed to kill this demonic corpse.

Otherwise, as long as the God Transformations hadn't used up all the spatial nodes, they would need to arrange for cultivators to guard here.

"However, everyone doesn't need to worry. Fellow Daoist Zhao has contacted Fellow Daoist Jin Ci of the Golden Light Temple and borrowed an ancient Buddhist treasure that can greatly weaken the strength of this demonic corpse!"

"In addition, this time there are also four fifth-order Buddhist formation plates. Even if this demonic corpse has heaven-defying methods, this time it can only drink its hatred," True Lord Xing Yuan said.

Then he had the Nascent Soul of the Zhao family next to him show it.

Sure enough, the next moment, the other party took out a cyan Buddhist lamp, emitting a terrifying Buddhist light.

As soon as this spiritual light came out, Ye Jingcheng even felt his mind being cleansed a lot.
