The white tea mist swirled gently, filling the entire second-floor shop.
Ye Jingcheng poured a cup of spirit tea for the elderly figure, offering it with respect before watching him depart.
Ye Xingliu glanced at Ye Jingcheng with some surprise, then smiled lightly.
"Lately, the spirit medicine has been selling well. It seems your alchemy skills are improving."
"You flatter me, Third Uncle." Ye Jingcheng shook his head with a smile, not picking up the discussion.
He wasn't sure if Ye Xingliu had recognized him, but he had indeed recognized that the elder in the Spirit-Blocking Robe was his Ninth Ancestor, Ye Xuefu.
That's why he especially offered a cup of tea upon his departure.
He wasn't sure if Ye Xuefu had come just to deliver some items or to also check on his alchemy progress.
Unfortunately, because of the importance of treasures like the Gold Condensing Fruit today, he couldn't display them to Ye Xuefu.
Otherwise, he really wished he could tell the latter that he could now steadily refine Tier Two High-Grade spirit pills, and that Tier Two Top-Grade spirit pills were not very difficult for him.
Shaking off impractical thoughts, he turned his attention to the jade talisman. As expected, it contained pill formulas, and not just one, but as many as seven.
These seven pill formulas were for Fire Beast Pill, Golden King Pill, Wood Scenery Pill, Earth Return Pill, Ren Shui Pill, Golden Quenching Pill, and Spirit Tempering Pill.
The first few are, as the names suggest, spirit pills that enhance cultivation in five familiar attributes, while the latter two are for strengthening the body and accelerating refinement speed, essentially cultivation advancement pills without attributes.
Moreover, these seven pill formulas share two common points: first, their main ingredients are not spirit medicines, but the inner cores of demon beasts; second, all the formulas are for Tier Two High-Grade spirit pills.
This indicates that the pill formulas were likely found in the Cyan Cloud Sea Domain.
The Ye Family has been in the Cyan Cloud Sea Domain for over ten years now and evidently has established a firm footing. It's only in such a demon-beast-rich sea domain that cultivators can rely on demon beast inner cores for alchemy.
However, Ye Jingcheng also noticed that the erysipelas of these spirit pills from the sea domain might be higher than those refined primarily with spirit medicines.
After all, spirit medicines are naturally nurtured, absorbing spiritual energy essence daily, and hence contain less erysipelas than demon beasts' inner cores.
But for Ye Jingcheng, these spirit pills weren't much of an issue.
He planned to use these spirit pills mainly for his four spirit beasts and maybe consume one or two himself during breakthroughs.
Even if there is some erysipelas, his body can automatically transform it, and at worst, he could just consume some spiritual honey.
For demon beasts, it's a world of survival of the fittest, and their dietary habit includes all other living beings except themselves.
Consuming spirit pills refined from demon beast inner cores not only has no side effects; on the contrary, it might even have a promoting effect.
So, the erysipelas of these pill formulas wasn't a big concern for him.
Furthermore, the pill formulas brought over by his family were indeed a timely support for him.
His storage bag currently held many demon beast corpses and inner cores but lacked a few pill formulas.
Of course, the jade talisman also contained some instructions, mostly related to matters requiring attention in the market, in addition to reminding Ye Jingcheng and others to be mindful of Cloud Silver Iron Crystals.
The teleportation array from the Ye Family to the Cyan Jade Sea Domain is becoming increasingly unstable, requiring periodic refinement with Profound Cloud Iron.
Ye Jingcheng nodded and then took the spirit beast bag.
He found it contained many demon beast inner cores, with most being Tier Two Water Attribute demon beast inner cores, and fewer of the fire attribute.
Ye Jingcheng smiled upon seeing this, recognizing it as a reward from his family.
It was also a signal.
The Ye Family would focus on supporting him in the future.
"Third Uncle, you should take a look at these pill formulas too." Ye Jingcheng passed the jade talisman to Ye Xingliu for a quick glance.
Ye Xingliu initially didn't want to look, but eventually, Ye Jingcheng's words piqued his curiosity.
The development of the Ye Family in the Cyan Cloud Sea Domain was mostly managed by the family's Hidden Peak, so even as the Patriarch of Ye Family's Lingyun Peak, Ye Xingliu didn't know much.
After reading through the jade talisman, Ye Xingliu nodded without saying much.
Perhaps a bit disappointed, as it contained only pill formulas and no secrets.
"Let's have the spirit tea too. We used Yunfu Tea for entertaining Tier Two cultivators," Ye Xingliu suggested.
This Yunfu Tea used to be spirit tea of the Buqing Li Family. Later, when Buqing Valley was taken over by the Ye Family, Yunfu Tea became the Ye Family's spirit tea.
Though its aroma isn't as good as Spring Tea's, its spiritual energy far surpasses Ye Jingcheng's Spring Tea.
Drinking a few more sips could also enhance his own cultivation with a bit more spiritual energy.
After all, the former is Tier One High-Grade Spirit Tea, while his Spring Tea barely counts as Tier One Lower Grade.
So, when he has time to return, he still wants to plant a Yunfu Tea in his Stone Spirit Grotto Heaven.
After sharing a drink with Ye Xingliu for a while, Ye Xingliu prompted Ye Jingcheng to continue his alchemy.
Currently, they were tasked with alchemy duties, and if Ye Jingcheng didn't proceed with his alchemy, it would raise suspicions.
Upon hearing this, Ye Jingcheng handed most of the refined Jade Soul Pills in his hand to Ye Xingliu before stepping out of the pavilion door.
Just as he exited the pavilion, he saw Chu Yanqing appearing in front of him.
Today, Chu Yanqing was dressed in a green dress, with a jade hairpin adorning her hair. Her black hair draped down beside her, accentuating her more refined face, seemingly well-groomed and charmingly attractive.
Even Ye Jingcheng was momentarily stunned upon seeing her.
Chu Yanqing, despite being a little domineering and having quirky temperaments, was definitely ranked among the top two in terms of looks among the female cultivators he knew.
