A few days later, above a continuous mountain range, a streak of yellow light sped past.
The yellow light enveloped two figures. Standing at the forefront was a cultivator wearing a bamboo hat and a black robe. This person stood with his hands behind his back, appearing calm and collected.
Half a丈 behind him was a blue-robed youth, who was speaking with a smiling face.
“Senior Zhang, we have already left the Demon Wind Mountains. In another half-day, we will arrive at Great Abundance City. The Ye family has been in business in Great Abundance City for hundreds of years. Even if the family has undergone changes, there are still some collections in the family. It would be an honor for this junior if Senior could take a look at one or two of them. If Senior is willing…”
Before the youth could finish speaking, the cultivator in the cloak in front of him grunted.
“Hmph, I have already smoothed your meridians and spiritual power three times. The cold poison in your body has been completely removed, and I have also obtained some treasures, so we are even. If it weren't for the few spiritual medicines for the Ice Soul Poison that your Ye family cultivates, which happen to be of some use to me, I would have parted ways with you before now.”
“Thank you for your trouble, Senior. Senior, please rest assured that although the Ye family's power is not as great as before, the family's several secret medicine gardens all have spiritual medicines for the Ice Soul Poison, and they are also cultivated with emphasis, so they will definitely not disappoint Senior. It's just that the one currently in charge of the family is that collateral elder in the late Golden Core stage.” The youth chuckled dryly and quickly explained.
“Hehe, you don't need to have these little thoughts. I will naturally take action to solve that person.” Zhang Ling said indifferently.
The young man was naturally Ye Chenming, a direct descendant of the Ye family. Three days ago, he had expelled the Ice Soul Poison from this son and sorted out the secret treasures left by the Ye family's ancestor.
Zhang Ling originally wanted to bid farewell to them in the Demon Wind Mountains. But this kid was quite interesting and wanted to persuade him to be the Ye family's backer, even offering good conditions.
Supporting Ye Chenming as the Ye family's controller and controlling Great Abundance City, he was willing to directly offer 90% of the income from this immortal city's market to him.
This condition really made Zhang Ling feel a little moved.
Although the Ye family's ancestor had passed away, this matter was only known to the Ye family's Golden Core elders and had not yet spread to the outside world.
The Ye family can still barely control Great Abundance City. The scale of this immortal city is not small, although it is not comparable to a medium-sized force, it is much stronger than ordinary small forces.
After all, the Ye family previously had a Nascent Soul ancestor sitting in charge, and had controlled Great Abundance City for nearly a thousand years. The daily profits from the market in the immortal city alone are considerable, and they also control several spiritual stone mines.
As long as Zhang Ling was willing, it would be easy for him to control this Great Abundance City with his current strength.
However, after thinking for a while, he finally gave up this plan.
Although controlling a force can quickly accumulate a lot of resources, it will also attract trouble.
Although the news of the Ye family's ancestor's death has not yet spread, various signs in Great Abundance City have also proved this point, and some meticulous cultivators can also guess the Ye family's various changes.
This matter cannot be concealed for long. It seems that before long, Great Abundance City will become a target of public criticism, attracting other coveters. Such an immortal city will definitely attract other Nascent Soul old monsters.
Zhang Ling didn't want to have too much entanglement with these old monsters. Of course, this was also because his ambition was not here. With his and Xuan Gui's strength, it would not be difficult to support such a small and medium-sized force.
His current thoughts are all focused on cultivation. He had just condensed his Nascent Soul, so it was better not to be too ostentatious.
He plans to return to Fire Cloud Island for a period of seclusion, and wait until the Nascent Soul is completely stable before cultivating a few more divine abilities, and then consider these matters.
He agreed to Ye Chenming's request to go to Great Abundance City because this son said when wooing him that their Ye family had specially opened up several spiritual fields to cultivate those Yin-Han spiritual herbs needed to condense Ice Soul Poison.
Now that he has obtained the complete Ice Soul Poison condensation method left by the Ye family's ancestor, in addition to the most important Ice Soul Jade which is quite difficult to collect, several auxiliary Yin-Han attribute spiritual herbs are also rare.
Although Zhang Ling often collects various spiritual herbs, the several spiritual herbs needed for Ice Soul Poison are all unpopular Yin-Han poisonous herbs.
Several spiritual plants such as Ice Snake Grass, Snow Mist Flower, and Black Yin Wood contain toxicity. Ice Snake Grass is the most difficult fourth-order spiritual herb to collect. He happens to have obtained one in his hand now, but he is still missing several others.
Since the Ye family has ready-made ones, he will go to the Ye family once to get these auxiliary materials. This will save him time searching for them one by one.
Zhang Ling thought in his heart and accelerated his escape speed, taking Ye Chenming towards Great Abundance City.
According to Ye Chenming, the current controller of the Ye family is that collateral elder in the late Golden Core stage.
Zhang Ling immediately thought of the black-faced Nascent Soul cultivator who appeared when he had finished searching for treasures. That person was also accompanied by two people, one of whom seemed to be in the late Golden Core stage.
Although his attention was focused on the black-faced Nascent Soul at the time, and he was busy getting rid of this person, he did not carefully examine the other two.
But these people also appeared in the Ye family ancestor's treasure trove, and were obviously also heading for the treasure trove.
It is possible that the black-faced Nascent Soul cultivator also has some relationship with other members of the Ye family.
Not long ago, he asked Ye Chenming, but this kid had not seen the black-faced cultivator. So this time going to Great Abundance City, Zhang Ling still has a trace of vigilance in his heart.
Another small reason is because Great Abundance City happens to be on the northeast side, and he originally planned to return to Fire Cloud Island, so it is convenient to go along the way.
If he encounters other Nascent Soul old monsters again, he can just turn around and leave. There won't be too much risk. He thinks other old monsters won't provoke him for no reason.
Now he naturally can't act with too many concerns as before. This is also a subtle change brought about by the great increase in strength. Although Zhang Ling's mind has not yet completely changed.
But he is now also a Nascent Soul powerhouse, and he can't be too timid, lest he be looked down upon by other cultivators. He still needs to have some confidence.
As his thoughts turned, two hours passed in the blink of an eye. After passing several desolate islands, Zhang Ling's divine sense noticed a flying island in the clouds at the end of the sky.
The island is neither big nor small, with an area of several hundred miles. Overall, it looks like a semi-circular ring-shaped island.
This island is Great Abundance City, controlled by the Ye family. There is a good middle-grade spiritual vein on it. The Ye family's direct and collateral descendants, and millions of mortals, all live on this island.
Eh.
Suddenly, Zhang Ling frowned slightly and reduced his escape speed, discovering that the island was quite chaotic at the moment. There was a place where flames soared into the sky and thick smoke billowed out. It seemed that something had happened.
“Senior Zhang, Great Abundance City of the Ye family is dozens of miles ahead.”
Ye Chenming did not notice the change on Zhang Ling's face. Seeing the familiar surroundings, he knew that he was about to approach Great Abundance City, and he was naturally happy in his heart.
He didn't expect the speed to be so fast. In just two hours, this senior had flown six or seven thousand miles.
With the help of this Nascent Soul cultivator, killing the collateral elder who seized the family will definitely be an easy task.
As long as that person is killed, the control of the Ye family may once again fall into the hands of their direct descendants.
