Da Feng City is located not far from the outer edge of the Monster Wind Mountains, often attracting cultivators who enter the Monster Wind Mountains. It has a decent bazaar. After so many years of operation, the Ye family can be considered a good force.
A family with a Nascent Soul ancestor sitting in town is a top-notch cultivating family.
However, Old Ancestor Feng Huo quietly passed away more than forty years ago, without even explaining his funeral arrangements. It seemed that he passed away suddenly. The Ye family has been secretly blocking this news, and only a few core family members know about it.
In this way, the Ye family has safely spent this time. Although the ancestor has passed away, his remaining power is still there, and he has always been safe and sound. In addition to Feng Huo Zhenren(真人: Real Person) being a Nascent Soul cultivator, the Ye family also has eleven Golden Core cultivators and seven or eight foreign elders.
These foreign elders are mostly cultivators who have married into the Ye family. Their interests are also tied to the Ye family. However, the matter of the ancestor's passing away cannot be concealed forever.
Several years ago, three elders of the Ye family transported a batch of cultivation resources to Wanxiang City for trading, but they disappeared without any news on the way. They disappeared for no reason.
After more than a year of investigation, the Ye family concluded that the three elders were likely killed by evil cultivators who specialized in robbing resources. This caused a stir that alarmed the ancestor.
However, the ancestor had already passed away and would naturally not reappear. Several people in charge of the Ye family have been suppressing the matter without any explanation. After this incident, rumors spread in the Ye family, and some cultivators seemed to have deduced something from this and began to have evil thoughts.
One night two years ago, two foreign elders joined forces with several loose cultivators to loot the Ye family's bazaar overnight, snatching a large number of resources, causing chaos in the entire Da Feng City.
After that, the Ye family's power plummeted, and Da Feng City was no longer as prosperous as it used to be. Many merchants also sensed the danger and directly abandoned their businesses, breaking away from the Ye family's bazaar.
Then more troubles followed. At the same time, several of the Ye family's foreign elders also broke away from the Ye family.
Fortunately, after so many years of development, the Ye family also has two Golden Core Late Stage experts in the family, and there are also many Golden Core cultivators among the other collateral elders. They contracted some strength and could barely protect Da Feng City.
If it continues like this, it can actually be safe and sound.
However, half a year ago, two Golden Core Late Stage elders who were originally of one mind and one heart, fighting for a treasure left by the ancestor, again triggered a change in the Ye family. In the end, one died and one was injured.
The injured but not dead elder is one of Ye Chenming's uncles. However, this uncle was born in a collateral line and had a bumpy experience in his early years. He was squeezed out by the direct line and had always disliked the direct line disciples of the Ye family.
Originally, there was the ancestor to suppress him, but now that there is no restraint, this person has integrated the Ye family and became the new head of the family.
And the treatment of the Ye family's direct line was reduced by more than half. Some elders had opinions, but their strength was not as good as others, so they could only swallow their anger.
But somehow, the new family head learned that the ancestor had hidden a treasure house in the Monster Wind Mountains. In order to get this treasure house, that person began to coerce the direct line of the Ye family.
At the same time, Ye Chenming's half-brother defected to the new family head. Ye Chenming naturally became a thorn in his side and had to flee in a hurry. That's why he escaped into the Monster Wind Mountains.
Being able to escape here was also because his seventh uncle saved his life at the cost of his own, self-detonated his body to bring him out.
The cultivation world has always been a world where strength is respected. The Ye family originally had a Nascent Soul ancestor, and its power was quite large. But as soon as the ancestor fell, many problems immediately arose.
Not only was it coveted by outsiders, but even the family members had a lot of conspiracy and cunning. The struggle between the direct line and collateral line, the treasures left by the ancestor, and the distribution of resources are the root causes of everything.
Zhang Ling sneered secretly. This kind of thing is very common in the cultivation world. He also helped Ding Ruozhao take back the Ding family before.
In fact, not only cultivation families, but also sects have faction. Once they lose the top cultivator like the Supreme Elder to suppress the contradiction, in the blink of an eye, the sect will fall apart or even be destroyed.
From ancient times to the present, the human race's cultivation world has always been like this, and it is not much different from ordinary people. I don't know how many powerful sects and forces have split and perished because of various disputes.
After understanding these things, Zhang Ling naturally did not care about the past events of the Ye family, and re-examined the red seal in his hand. This thing is the key to open the treasure house left by the Ye family's ancestor. He also had some interest in the treasures left by a Nascent Soul cultivator.
He turned his head and glanced at Ye Chenming, who was pale.
open the Ye family's treasure house is not just a matter of having this token. From the information he soul-searching, the Ye family's treasure house is hidden in a special place and is set with a powerful array guarding.
Only the direct line bloodline of the Ye family can open it. It seems that to find the treasure house, he has to bring this person with him. Zhang Ling thought to himself and directly threw out a red spiritual fruit.
Since you are not lying, I will naturally fulfill my promise to remove the cold poison on your body. This spiritual fruit will help to suppress the cold poison on your body.
Ah, Chenming thanks you, senior. Ye Chenming's face was filled with joy. He quickly took the spiritual fruit, felt the fire spiritual power contained in the spiritual fruit, and immediately swallowed it.
After a while, Ye Chenming's face became ruddy, and his breath also improved a lot. At the same time, a wisp of cold air emerged from his body. He quickly sat cross-legged in meditation.
The spiritual power contained in the spiritual fruit is much milder than spiritual medicine. Although sun fruit is a four- grade spiritual fruit, it contains a rich fire spiritual power, which can just right suppress the cold poison on this person's body.
Of course, with this person's Foundation Establishment strength, taking sun fruit to expel the cold poison is not the best choice. It will waste a large portion of the sun fruit's spiritual power.
Zhang Ling naturally did not care about this consumption. He had cultivated a lot of sun fruit in his hand. Then he turned his head to look at the middle-aged man's spirit, who was still trapped in the spiritual light big hand.
This person's soul transformed into的鬼影(鬼影: ghost shadow) , looked at with concern的看着(看着: watching) Ye Chenming.
From the soul search just now judging from the memory, this person called Ye Zhen, just Ye Family的旁系(旁系: collateral) disciple, spiritual root aptitude not outstanding, earlier years often by the Ye family direct line squeeze out. until entered the Golden Core stage后, situation improved a lot.
Ye Zhen only in the Ye family worked as a without real power elder, in general, also a bitter cultivator.
Unexpectedly this person would for protect a Foundation Establishment cultivator, willingly self-destruct his physical body and natal magic weapon, this made Zhang Ling admire him a bit.
Flicked his finger gently, aura big hand instantly turned into little starlight, dissipated. Ye Zhen soul came back to his senses, quickly to him thanked.“ Thank you senior for saving Ming'er.”
But his words not finished.
Zhang Ling waved his hand again, dissipated aura big hand, transformed into wisps of yellow light, condensed into several mysterious runes, like arrows, instantly hit Ye Zhen soul body.
