A year passed in the blink of an eye, and the blazing sunlight warmly shone down within the Grotto Heaven.

On the high platform of the mountain peak, accompanied by the final tadpole-shaped Spirit Pattern of Profound Silver, he fully comprehended it.

A total of thirty-six Spirit Patterns transformed into a long Spirit Technique, and these Spirit Techniques emitted a mysterious Spiritual Light, enhancing the Sea of Consciousness.

Immediately, Ye Jingcheng's entire body exuded a mysterious and ancient aura.

His whole body also felt a sense of comfort and ease, as if he had just broken through.

"Finally comprehended!" Ye Jingcheng breathed a long sigh of relief.

While reflecting on the hardships of learning the Treasure Communication Technique, he also realized his Divine Soul had strengthened significantly, though not reaching the strength of a Tier Three Peak Divine Sense, it was not far off.

It was clear that the year's cultivation of the Treasure Communication Technique had greatly benefited him.

He stood up and put away the Purple Jade Cold Bed.

The speed of his comprehension was actually related to this Purple Jade Cold Bed, which greatly lessened the pain of comprehension.

Otherwise, his progress might have been slowed by a quarter.

Down from the mountain peak, his gaze swept over the entire Grotto Heaven.

Before returning to Lingyun Peak, he had upgraded the Spiritual Vein within the Grotto Heaven once again. Now the Spiritual Vein was thoroughly stabilized, and with the amplification of the Spiritual Eye Spring, the Spiritual Vein within the Grotto Heaven was no worse than the Tier Two Middle Grade Spiritual Vein.

Although it was still negligible, for Ye Jingcheng, it was far better than before.

With the Stone Spirit being able to draw Spiritual Energy from Lingyun Peak, even if all the Spirit Beasts required more Spiritual Energy, they could barely maintain the operation of the Grotto Heaven.

"Congratulations, Master!" The Peach Wood Demon was the first to rush over, followed by the other Spirit Beasts.

Even the Jade Ring Rat and Earthworm were lined up behind.

The Earthworm had advanced once more, and the Jade Ring Rat had also broken through to Tier Two, increasing their confidence significantly. Unlike before, now even when Ye Jingcheng emerged, they wouldn't remain motionless, only watching eagerly.

At this moment, only the Roc Fish was caught in advancing to Tier Two.

Ye Jingcheng, as usual, infused Treasure Light into all the Spirit Beasts.

However, due to the seclusion, there weren't as many Spirit Pills, and they could only distribute some Spirit Beast Meat.

After infusing the Treasure Light, Ye Jingcheng left Lingyun Lake. To this day, he only needed to retrieve the Spirit Treasure and bring back the Earth Dragon Demon King, then he wouldn't need to hide within Lingyun Lake anymore.

He took out the Clan Token, and after reading the messages within, he immediately exited the Grotto Heaven.

Ye Jingcheng didn't linger but flew straight toward the Taihang Mountain Range.

Currently, the warfare in Taiqing Commandery was more intense; small families had already been exterminated, though the sect cultivators from both sides hadn't taken action yet.

As for the Ye Family, they were still doing well. However, Ye Jingcheng himself couldn't afford any delays.

Ye Jingcheng's Spiritual Ship, refined by Ye Haicheng, was a Tier Three Treasure Ship and very fast.

Soon, he arrived at Earth Dragon Valley, where Ye Jingcheng took out the Token given by the Earth Dragon Demon King, then entered the canyon where the Ye Family's Teleportation Array was located.

Currently, guarding the Teleportation Array were still two individuals, Ye Haiyan and Ye Haicheng.

Previously, there was also Ye Haiping, but since Purple Wood Island needed more Ye Family Members to manage, and several members broke through, they went to Purple Wood Island.

And since the Earth Dragon Demon King was already considered kin, there was naturally no need for so many family members to guard the Teleportation Array.

One to maintain the Teleportation Array, and one with Purple Mansion Combat Power was sufficient.

As Ye Jingcheng descended, Ye Haiyan was comprehending the array, while Ye Haicheng was in a medicinal bath.

"Grandfather, sixth grandfather!" Ye Jingcheng joyfully shouted.

"Jingcheng, have you succeeded?" Ye Haiyan and Ye Haicheng both appeared very surprised.

According to Ye Xuecang, Ye Jingcheng would need at least two years to find them.

And now, at the most, only a year and a half had passed.

"Succeeded!" Ye Jingcheng nodded.

In the messages he received, it showed the situation was extremely urgent, and Ye Jingteng had sent transmissions twice more this year!

"Jingcheng, this is the Storage Bag your second uncle needs to pass on to you. This Storage Bag has been imbued with an array, making it essential you don't let it leak outside of the flesh body!" Ye Haicheng took out a Storage Bag and tossed it to Ye Jingcheng.

The Storage Bag was very tight, with a strong array placed on it.

Ordinary people, upon obtaining the Storage Bag, would take days to dispel the array.

"Thank you, grandfather!" Ye Jingcheng was joyfully thankful.

It was evident that even though he had been in seclusion for so long without sending messages, Ye Xuecang had brought the Spirit Treasure over beforehand.

And the level of caution regarding this Spirit Treasure was not to be underestimated even compared to the Beast Communication Tower.

Because this was the reason the Eight Desolates Sect was destroyed back in the day!

Ye Jingcheng placed the Storage Bag directly into the Stone Spirit Grotto Heaven.

This treasure could only be refined within the Grotto Heaven.

Then Ye Jingcheng retrieved Turtle Ancestor.

He let Turtle Ancestor reunite with Ye Haicheng, then continued onwards without stopping, heading towards the Dragon Hall of the Earth Dragon Demon King.

"Dragon Ancestor!" Ye Jingcheng arrived and switched to walking.

Once stopping in front of the giant dragon mouth of the Dragon Hall, he paused, softly calling out.

However, there was no immediate response.

Ye Jingcheng was not in a rush.

All three of Ye Jingcheng's Spirit Beasts knew the Breathing Technique.

The Earth Dragon Demon King surely knew it too, given that they both consumed Celestial Dragon Fruit.

Breathing Techniques, like a cultivator's techniques, can be complex or simple.

For instance, the Jade Ring Rat can complete a full cycle of Soul Absorption Breathing in just over ten breaths.

The Golden Scale Beast and Red Flame Fox need about two quarters of an hour.

The Jade Qilin Flood Dragon takes the longest, requiring three quarters of an hour.

The Earth Dragon Demon King has reached the Golden Core Peak, and Ye Jingcheng estimated it may take one or two hours.
