Chapter 228: Years of Sedimentation [4K]
As Cangyuebei broke through the Jindan realm, Ye Linyuan suddenly felt a little surprised.
The promotion of Cangyue Bei not only means that the Ye family has gained another Jindan fighter, but also means that the top-grade spiritual fields in the Xuanyuan Sea will be settled in the future.
After all, after the Cangyuebei broke through the Jindan stage, the possibility of causing the Lingbei bloodline to mutate has greatly increased, and the size of the Lingzhubei will increase more than tenfold in the future.
Even among the Lingbei tribe, there are many second-level Lingbei at the foundation-building stage.
If on this basis, the Sea of Bright Moon is upgraded to the third-level Taoist temple Sea of Dark Moon, then in the future I am afraid that one acre of high-quality spiritual fields can be cultivated every few years.
"The Cang Yue Bei spiritual plant has been successfully promoted, and the spiritual peach tree and other spiritual plants have also been successfully promoted. Next, we just need to settle down for a few years, and the Xuan Yuan Sea will be completely on the right track."
Ye Linyuan pondered in his heart, and then continued to practice in seclusion.
Although the Ye family has many powerful Jindan masters nowadays, they are only newly promoted Jindan masters after all. The cultivation base of several Jindan masters is not very high. Both their strength and foundation need a certain amount of time to accumulate.
Therefore, for Ye Linyuan, at least in the next 20 to 30 years, he will not have any idea of getting involved in the disputes of the Seven Domain Alliance.
Time flies and the years pass by unknowingly.
About two years later, several plants of the main medicinal herbs for forming golden elixirs that the Tianxing Sword Sect entrusted Ye Linyuan to take care of matured under his careful cultivation.
He sent this batch of main ingredients for making golden elixir to the Tianxing Sword Sect, and not long after, another golden elixir was born in the Tianxing Sword Sect.
This newly promoted Jindan Daoist is called 'Youxuan Sword Master'. He practices 'Youxuan Sword Scripture', which is a standard water sword practice. While maintaining extremely high combat power, he also possesses extremely strong recovery ability.
“One sect has six golden elixirs, and that’s not even counting the thousand-year heritage of the Tianxing Sword Sect. I’m afraid that the Tianxing Sword Sect is really going to rise.”
After receiving this news, Ye Linyuan felt emotional but shook his head slightly.
He thought of the dark shadow suppressed underground in Tianxing Fairy City, and suddenly felt an invisible pressure in his heart.
"That seal has lasted for at least a thousand years. I'm afraid it will soon loosen."
"If we gather seven sword masters again, can we strengthen the seal again?"
Ye Linyuan whispered, feeling a little uncertain.
Because the aura of that underground black shadow was extremely terrifying, even if Ye Linyuan was at the peak of his previous life, he would not have dared to confront that existence head-on.
"I hope the Tianxing Sword Sect can withstand the pressure."
Ye Linyuan pondered in his heart, then withdrew all thoughts and resumed his life of seclusion.
"..."
Not long after the golden elixir matured, the first batch of fortune fruits finally matured. Ye Linyuan picked them all and finally obtained more than fifty fortune fruits.
Ye Linyuan refined all the fortune fruits into pills, and finally obtained more than 180 fortune pills.
After getting this batch of Creation Pills, Ye Linyuan tried to refine one. He immediately felt a medicinal power a hundred times stronger than that of the Xuanyuan Pill surging into his body, and his cultivation level instantly increased a lot.
"With this batch of Fortune Pills, the time it takes to break through the middle stage of the Golden Core can be accelerated. Unfortunately, the output is still insufficient. For now, it is only enough for me to practice."
Ye Linyuan pondered in his heart, the Fruit of Fortune is a third-level spiritual medicine, generally speaking, it needs a high-quality spiritual field to be cultivated.
His skills in cultivating spiritual plants were extremely high, and he could barely grow them with medium-quality spiritual fields, but the yield was very low, and only five Good Fortune Fruit plants could be planted in one acre.
In order to increase the output of Creation Fruit, one must either expand the scale of medium-grade spiritual fields on a large scale, or cultivate high-grade spiritual fields.
However, Ye Linyuan's energy is limited, and he also has to plant bloodline elixirs and various spiritual plants and elixirs on a large scale. It is not cost-effective to expand the scale of Creation Fruit planting on a large scale.
Therefore, the best way is to cultivate top-grade spiritual fields, but cultivating top-grade spiritual fields cannot be done overnight. Whether it is spiritual wood, spiritual silk, or spiritual beads, it all takes time to settle.
Fortunately, Shui Hanqing and the others have not yet formed their elixir. As for the Han Chi, Fighting Golden Ape and other spirit beasts, what they need most is bloodline elixir, and their need for the Creation Pill is only secondary.
Back to the topic, after obtaining this batch of fortune pills, Ye Linyuan's cultivation began to accelerate again.
A few more years passed, and finally when he was 210 years old, Ye Linyuan's cultivation reached the second level of the Golden Core, and his magic power reached 108.
Such powerful magic power is comparable to that of some veteran mid-stage Jindan cultivators.
It was also in this year that the Hanxu flower was cultivated to maturity by Ye Linyuan and sent to the Tianxing Sword Sect by him.
After that, time passed quickly and Ye Linyuan began a long period of seclusion and cultivation. Twenty years passed in the blink of an eye.
"Two hundred mana."
On this day, Ye Linyuan woke up from the retreat room and exhaled slowly.
He sensed his own powerful magic power, constantly comprehending his own strength, and his gaze became increasingly profound.
There is no time in the cultivation of immortals. Before he knew it, he was already 230 years old, and it had been 40 years since he successfully formed the elixir.
After forty years of accumulation, his magical powers have reached two hundred paths, which is comparable to that of a senior Jindan middle-stage cultivator, or some Jindan late-stage cultivators with weak magical powers.
Over the years, Ye Linyuan's foundation has also grown significantly.
First of all, after years of practice, he had refined the Wanhua Sword Technique to the Mahayana realm, becoming his strongest trump card that surpassed the Rising Moon over the Sea.
The divination technique and the black tortoise breath-concealing technique were also transformed into minor Mahayana magical powers after he comprehended the tortoise shell.
Wanhua Xiaoyaoyou was slightly behind, stopping at the realm of Hinayana magical powers, but it also greatly improved Ye Linyuan's speed. In the Seven Domain Alliance, he should be second only to the Teng Snake.
All other magical powers and spells have been improved to varying degrees.
In addition, Ye Linyuan also completely mastered the Nine Revolutions Condensation Technique and stepped into the Nine Revolutions realm, doubling the quality of his basic mana.
After breaking through the golden elixir, the quality of the mana enhanced by the Xuanjin Sword Embryo has been reduced a lot.
Now, after the Nine Revolutions of Condensing Essence, the quality of his magic power has finally been maintained at the level of a swordsman in the middle stage of the Golden Core.
According to Ye Linyuan's estimation, once he breaks through to the middle stage of the Golden Core, the effectiveness of the Black Gold Sword Embryo will be greatly reduced.
By that time, the quality level of his mana should be barely comparable to that of a fire cultivator at the seventh level of the Golden Core, but not as good as a top sword cultivator at the late Golden Core stage.
In addition to the improvement of his magic power and supernatural powers, his magic weapons and body cultivation also made considerable progress.
His natal spiritual weapon, the Xuanyuan Zhenhai Banner, was promoted to the third-grade lower grade in these years, and its overall power increased by about 20%. Because it was promoted from a rare spiritual weapon, these formation flags were all exquisite among the lower-grade magic weapons.
His body refining skills also advanced further and reached the third level of the Golden Elixir, but the fake elixir, flesh and blood, and body refining resources in his hands were also used up. It is feared that he would not be able to make a major breakthrough in his body refining skills in the next few decades.
For Ye Linyuan, these forty years of accumulation have brought him tremendous improvement.
His overall strength increased by about 30%, and his endurance increased by more than several times. His overall combat power increased from the ordinary mid-stage Jindan level to the veteran mid-stage Jindan realm.
Although he is still not as good as the former leader of Canghai Sect, Ye Linyuan is probably comparable to Old Man Qingyan and better than Lord Cangyue and Taoist Jingnie.
“If I don’t use the magic of refining spirits to refine rare treasures, then my strength will not have changed qualitatively before I break through the middle stage of the golden elixir.”
Ye Linyuan pondered in his heart, and after repeatedly estimating his own strength, he walked out of the retreat room.
After leaving the retreat room, he immediately gathered the senior members of the Ye family, and then looked at everyone and said, "There is no time in the mountains, but it has been a thousand years in the world."
"Before I knew it, nearly two decades have passed since the last time the Blood Prison Secret Realm was opened."
"According to the time, the Blood Prison Secret Realm will soon be opened. Is there anyone in the clan who is ready to go?"
Everyone looked at each other, and then Shui Hanqing said, "We have selected twenty foundation-building cultivators, led by me, Yu Wan, and Ling Xi."
"Let Xuqiu, Yingxu, Xuanheng and Xuanjin go together to try their luck."
Having said this, Shui Hanqing handed him a list.
Ye Linyuan took the list, took a look at it, and nodded slightly.
After he formed the Dan, the Ye family's immortal clan controlled the entire Xuanyuan Sea and gained enormous room for development.
With the support of a large amount of resources, the Ye family's foundation-building cultivators have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain. To date, the Ye family has 57 foundation-building cultivators.
The twenty foundation-building cultivators selected this time are almost all the elite foundation-building cultivators of the Ye family. Their cultivation is basically above the middle stage of foundation-building, and they are all relatively young cultivators.
Among the people leading the team, Shui Hanqing has already cultivated four pseudo-magical powers. He is the first genius of the Ye family's immortal clan and possesses combat power at the top fake pill level.
Zhou Yuwan and Chu Lingxi were a step behind, but both possessed rare spiritual weapons, and each was at the top level of foundation building. When they joined forces, they could barely resist the fake elixir cultivators.
Among the younger generations, Ye Xuqiu is quite extraordinary. He has cultivated the four core pseudo-magical powers of the Fire Sea Golden Lotus Technique, and combined with his bloodline magical power to break the mystery of the golden pupil, his combat power is one level stronger than Shui Hanqing.
According to Ye Linyuan's estimation, Ye Xuqiu's overall strength should be slightly stronger than before Ye Linyuan formed the Dan in his previous life.
However, this person possesses the mysterious supernatural power, and is most likely a person with great luck. In a Yuanying sect, he is a genius that appears once in a thousand years, and it is expected that he can cultivate the four core supernatural powers.
“With Ye Xuqiu’s strength, he might be comparable to a newly promoted Jindan, and be able to kill a fake Dan master.”
Ye Linyuan pondered in his heart, then put the list down.
Apart from Ye Xuqiu, Ye Yingxu is not good at fighting. Although Xuan Heng and Xuan Jin are talented, their future potential may be limited.
Ye Linyuan had calculated through divination that these two would most likely stop at the stage of fake elixir in their lifetime. Even if they succeeded in forming elixir by chance, they would most likely stop at the early to middle stage of golden elixir.
People like my second uncle Ye Qinchu and my fifth aunt Ye Qinxin have remained in the middle stage of foundation building for many years and have never been able to break through to the late stage of foundation building.
Although with Ye Linyuan's attainments in the art of changing fate, if he was willing to shorten his life by sixty years, he might be able to change their fate, but the path of cultivation ultimately depends on oneself.
If they do not have enough talent and foundation, even if Ye Linyuan pays a huge price to change their fate, at most he can only improve their cultivation by one or two levels, which is simply not worth it.
At this time, Ye Linyuan finished reading the list, pondered for a moment and said: "With your strength and cultivation, it won't be too dangerous to explore the Blood Prison Secret Realm."
"But I am planning to cultivate a third-level blood spirit field, which requires high-quality blood spirit soil. I will need you to put in a little more effort."
Everyone nodded when they heard this, and Shui Hanqing said, "I have prepared fifty second-level Nahai shells, which should be enough to bring out a lot of blood spirit soil."
Zhou Yuwan pondered for a moment, then said, "The Blood Prison Secret Realm is too vast. It is already the limit for us to dig out so much blood spirit soil by ourselves."
"Why not wait until the Blood Prison Secret Realm is opened and then directly purchase blood spiritual soil on a large scale?"
"That's exactly what I meant." Ye Linyuan nodded, and then said, "Spread the news. When the Blood Prison Secret Realm opens this time, we will purchase blood spirit soil on a large scale."
"The materials used for trading include, but are not limited to, inferior Golden Core Forming Pills, Foundation Building Pills, various rare precious pills, refining materials, and even first-level rare treasures."
Upon hearing this, everyone present couldn't help but nodded slightly.
After more than two hundred years of accumulation, especially after the formation of the Dan in the last forty years, the foundation of the Ye family's immortal clan began to improve rapidly.
With Ye Linyuan's third-grade, top-grade spiritual plant skills, he can now produce the main ingredients for foundation-building pills and first-grade rare treasures in a stable manner.
Today, the Ye family of immortals has accumulated hundreds of various first-level rare treasures, most of which are various spiritual trees and spiritual medicines.
These are the treasures that all the major foundation-building immortal clans and Qi-cultivating monks have long dreamed of.
Even the inferior golden elixir, Ye Linyuan had one left before, and the fake sea beast's inner elixir could also be used as the main ingredient for refining the inferior golden elixir.
In addition, in recent years, the main ingredients for golden elixir have gradually matured. It can be predicted that Ye Linyuan estimates that he can only produce six or seven inferior golden elixirs at a time.
Inferior golden elixir can only become fake elixir. For the immortal race who practice golden elixir, it is really tasteless to eat and a pity to throw away. It is best to use it to trade with the outside world.
"Since you all have no objection, let's arrange it this way."
After Ye Linyuan explained everything, he came to the spiritual medicine garden.
After years of accumulation, the scale of spiritual medicines in his spiritual medicine garden has become extraordinary.
The contracted medicines of the Ye family's many spirit beasts have been promoted to the level of third-level spirit medicines, and the main medicine for forming the golden elixir has also been gathered into a furnace again.
In addition, a third-level five-element wood was also cultivated. Ye Linyuan estimated that after cutting it down, he should be able to obtain more than thirty pieces of five-element wood.
Based on the assumption that six pieces of spiritual wood equal one acre of spiritual field, it should be enough to cultivate five acres of top-quality spiritual field.
As for the spiritual silk for refining array equipment, Ye Linyuan has already prepared it. The water silkworm had already been promoted to the golden elixir realm more than ten years ago.
As a third-order spiritual insect, the water silkworm has a relatively low bottleneck for breakthrough. It is also a descendant of the true spiritual species, so it successfully formed a pill on its second breakthrough.
However, the power of the thunder tribulation when the pill was formed was quite strong. Shuican destroyed two low-grade magic weapons and consumed an inner pill of a sea-swallowing shark as an external pill before he could barely survive.
