**Chapter 62: Regret**
The performance lasted for almost half an hour, and Ye Yong felt that most of his spiritual energy had been consumed.
It had to be said that the eighth spiritual vein was indeed powerful. Without it, Ye Yong estimated that he would have had to stop halfway.
This was because playing the spiritual melody also required spiritual energy to mobilize the surrounding spiritual energy. It was equivalent to a spirit gathering array, but it was more convenient and did not require any materials.
However, a spirit gathering array could be set up by a third-grade array master. However, not everyone could master the spiritual melody that Ye Yong had just played. If Ye Yong had not mastered the [Complete Melody], had rich professional knowledge , and had touched the threshold of the Dao in music, and had the eighth spiritual vein to support his spiritual energy consumption, it would have been impossible.
A Foundation Establishment cultivator wanted to mobilize such a large amount of spiritual energy? Dream on.
Ye Yong made such a grand gesture not only to establish a noble persona for himself but also to attract the attention of a Sect Master-level expert.
The Sect Master was a Great Ascension expert. As long as he could be recognized as a promising talent with a bright future, Ye Yong would not have to fear any enemies he provoked in the early stages.
After all, a Great Ascension expert was still a very powerful existence in the middle of the novel. With the Sect Master’s protection, he would be much more at ease.
As Ye Yong stopped playing, many cultivators felt regretful. Such a good opportunity to improve was rare.
Imagine not having to use any resources, not needing any pills or spiritual herbs, and being able to absorb so much spiritual energy for free. How wonderful would that be?
Seeing the light in the female cultivators’ eyes as they looked at Ye Yong, the male cultivators were secretly regretting.
Why hadn’t they realized before that music was such a magical thing? If they had learned it, would they have to worry about not having a Dao companion?
Ye Yong’s face was slightly pale. This was a sign that his spiritual energy had been consumed too much. Yi Bai and the others had also been absorbing spiritual energy just now. One of the senior sisters had even broken through. She had been very happy , but seeing Ye Yong’s appearance, she suddenly felt heartache.
It was truly a case of dying for a bosom friend.

“Junior Brother Ye, are you okay?” Yi Bai was the first to reach out to support Ye Yong. She was not taking advantage of him, but was distressed for him.
The softness of the senior sister’s body and the fragrance on her body made Ye Yong wonder if he should pretend to be weak and unsteady, lean on her, and bury his face in… Cough, no, noble persona, noble persona.
Ye Yong shook his head to indicate that he was fine. He said some polite words to the people present and left on his flying magic weapon, still with Yi Bai.
After Ye Yong left, many female cultivators were still immersed in the beautiful words he had said.
He had given them an opportunity to break through, and he had thanked them for being willing to listen to him play. Even though he had consumed a lot of spiritual energy and was about to collapse…
How could there be such a gentle, humble, and generous man?
Although there were male cultivators who hated Ye Yong even more, feeling that he was too showy and hypocritical, there were also male cultivators who were truly convinced by him.
If they were in his place, they would not have given a group of strangers an opportunity to improve without any benefit.
Furthermore, there were more than 20,000 people here, including Golden Core cultivators. To mobilize the spiritual energy that more than 20,000 cultivators could absorb freely… It was estimated that only a third-grade large spirit gathering array could do that.
And Ye Yong had done it alone. This ability could not be underestimated.
However, most of the male cultivators still regard Ye Yong as an auxiliary who could help others improve their cultivation. His own combat strength was not that strong. Apart from his appearance, which could barely match theirs, he had no other advantages. Therefore, they still had a lot of hope. It was just that the women around them had not realized it yet.

“Thanks to him, I’ve broken through to the seventh level of Foundation Establishment.” Long Tian was at the back of the crowd.
He had just come out of the magical jade pendant space today. His cultivation had reached the peak of the sixth level of Foundation Establishment. He was still a little short of reaching perfection. He was just about to go to the Contribution Hall to exchange spirit stones for some herbs to help him break through to the seventh level of Foundation Establishment when he heard from a disciple of the same hall that Ye Yong was going to play a piece of music.
Long Tian did not intend to come over at first, but Immortal Meteor said that it would not hurt to come and have a look. He might even be able to gain some insights from listening to Ye Yong’s music.
With that in mind, Long Tian agreed. He did not expect that Ye Yong would actually give him an opportunity. Not only did he break through to the seventh level of Foundation Establishment, but he also absorbed a large amount of spiritual energy, consolidating the foundation of his cultivation. His spiritual energy absorption had even reached half of the seventh level, which was equivalent to him cultivating in the ring space for a month with resources.
Of course, this was also related to the auxiliary cultivation technique he practiced, [Return to Origin and Absorb Spirit]. Otherwise, ordinary cultivators would not be able to absorb so much spiritual energy in such a short period of time.
‘This young man named Ye Yong is truly unfathomable.’ Immortal Meteor was still sighing there.
Long Tian’s shock had yet to subside as well. As a fellow Foundation Establishment cultivator, Long Tian did not believe that he could mobilize such a large amount of spiritual energy like Ye Yong.
Although this was also related to the fact that the New Wind Valley was right next to the Tianluo Sect’s spiritual vein, which was rich in spiritual energy, it was still not simple for 20,000 people to cultivate in the same place and still have sufficient spiritual energy .
Fortunately, he cultivated in music and painting. If he cultivated in swordsmanship…
As if he knew what Long Tian was thinking, Immortal Meteor said, ‘Don’t underestimate music and painting. In the hands of powerful cultivators, sound waves and painting techniques can kill without a trace. It’s just that in your lower realm, there are too few talented people, which has led to their decline. There are three thousand Great Daos. As long as you persevere on any one of them, there is no such thing as a weak one.’
Long Tian listened very seriously and became even more determined to become stronger.
———
What Ye Yong did shocked the entire Tianluo Sect. A Foundation Establishment cultivator used music to mobilize spiritual energy that could allow 20,000 people to cultivate at the same time? Even books did not dare to write like that.
However, there were 20,000 people who had witnessed it, who could testify for Ye Yong, so even those who didn’t believe it had to admit it was true.
Inside the Sect Master’s cave, a handsome, tall middle-aged man was compiling an earth-level cultivation method. Suddenly, a crane flew in and spoke in human language, reporting what had happened in the Xinfeng Valley.
“Oh? He can actually do that?” The man stopped writing, his eyes flickering, a little absent-minded: “It seems that he is indeed very talented. It’s a pity that except for Mu Qingyin, no one in my sect can guide him in music and painting. Mu Qingyin is a little strange, and she stays behind closed doors all day… Let’s observe for now. If it really doesn’t work, I’ll ask Liu Chuan, the Semi-Saint, to guide him. If his talent is really excellent, maybe he can become Liu Chuan’s disciple.”
“You think highly of him.” Said the crane.
“Seven-colored foundation establishment is enough to be admired. It’s a pity that he has no intention of cultivating the sword, otherwise I wouldn’t mind taking him as my disciple.”

With the help of the kind senior sister, Ye Yong returned to his residence.
Yi Bai planned to take care of Ye Yong, wipe his sweat, help him go to bed and rest.
Ye Yong, who wanted to maintain his character, was also thinking about whether to continue pretending to be unwell and unable to refuse. Anyway, if something happened, he would just say that it was the senior sister who took the initiative.
Before he could make a decision, two paintings flew in. Yes, paintings.
After the paintings came in, they hung themselves on the wall and unfolded the scroll. Then two beauties, Hua Ming and Hua Xin, flew out of the scroll.
“Are you okay, little brother?” “With your current cultivation level, do you know that forcibly using such a large amount of spiritual power could cause a backlash and damage your soul?”
Ye Yong knew that Mu Qingyin must have asked them to come and check on him. After all, without Mu Qingyin’s life talisman, they wouldn’t have been able to leave the assessment hut.
There was a shielding formation in the hut. Unless it was forcibly broken, even a cultivator at the Great Ascension stage wouldn’t be able to probe it with their divine sense.
Although they couldn’t probe it, that didn’t mean they didn’t want to. It was still very easy for a cultivator at the God Transformation stage to break this intermediate-level shielding formation. For a cultivator at the Great Ascension stage , it was as easy as drinking water.
“My soul is naturally stronger than ordinary cultivators. I’ll be fine after a short rest.”
Although Hua Ming and Hua Xin were not inferior to Yi Bai, and they had the advantage in numbers, they were still soul bodies after all. How could they compare to a real senior sister?
However, in order to prevent Mu Qingyin from using them to probe his body with her spiritual power and discover his eleventh-layer foundation establishment cultivation and eighth spiritual vein, Ye Yong no longer pretended to be weak and powerless. He quickly stood up from his chair.
