Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Chapter 69: Chapter 69: Slaying Demons

Ye Jingcheng observed the Treasure Book while having the Golden Scale Beast continue its assault.

Up until now, he had sensed that several Spirit Beasts could unlock the spiritual shadows of the Treasure Book.

What puzzled him was that neither the Lizard Lord nor Third Uncle’s Jade-eyed Hanging Eye Tiger could produce any spiritual shadows.

It seemed there were two conditions for triggering a spiritual shadow: having extra potential or being a juvenile or adolescent Spirit Beast, at least one that hadn’t reached its peak strength.

Ye Jingcheng observed the three Jade Qilin Snakes, continually pondering in his mind.

Meanwhile, by the riverside, the Array which gathered Spirit Snakes was growing more numerous, though no new Level Two Spirit Snakes appeared.

However, it was clear they couldn’t withstand so many Spirit Snakes, and the Spirit Net began to show a breach.

A large number of Spirit Snakes surged through the opening to the side.

Ye Jingcheng wasn’t sure if this was Ye Xingliu’s intention!

But the possibility was high.

At that moment, the massive form of the Jade-eyed Hanging Eye Tiger had appeared on the field, along with the Lizard Lord.

The Lizard Lord appeared like a torrent on the river, surging above the water.

The two Jade Qilin Snakes that had just emerged from the Spirit Net were instantly surrounded by two Tier Two Spirit Beasts.

The Lizard Lord’s long tongue shot out while simultaneously releasing a series of towering Earth Spikes like sharp mountain peaks!

These Earth Spike Skills clearly surpassed ordinary Earth Spike Skills.

The speed and sharpness of release were incomparable.

The Jade Qilin Snake, incredibly fast, was constrained to dart through the Spirit Net’s breach, severely limited.

Surrounded by Earth Spikes, it couldn’t dodge and had to directly withstand them!

The sharp spikes landed on the Jade Qilin Snake’s Scale Armor, immediately sparking a dazzling array of sparks!

They ultimately pierced the Scale Armor, but as they reached five inches in, they shattered into countless bits of soil and stone!

The Jade Qilin Snake opened its massive mouth in pain, revealing enormous cyan venomous fangs, the poison glistening clearly on them.

Yet, once more it collided with the Lizard Lord’s long tongue, binding it tightly.

Moreover, the binding was at the Jade Qilin Snake’s injured area.

The Jade Qilin Snake’s entire body filled with White Jade-like spiritual light to prevent the long tongue from deeply piercing the flesh.

It’s crucial to know the Lizard Lord is a Five-Colored Poison Lizard, and besides Earth Spike Skill, its long tongue was full of venomous barbs.

Meanwhile, the Jade Qilin Snake’s tail began gathering Spiritual Light akin to Spirit Jade, transforming into a huge Jade Qilin Tail Saber.

At this moment, Ye Xingliu’s Child and Mother Swords were slashing forth, targeting this newly released Tier Two Jade Qilin Snake.

The brilliant Sword Light and the Jade Qilin Tail Saber clashed, spiritual light instantly scattering, the Child and Mother Swords recoiling.

The terrifying Spiritual Might raised waves of Spirit Bursts, spreading outward.

And the Jade-eyed Hanging Eye Tiger, who knows when, also transformed into a streak of Golden Light, its dazzling golden claws revealing thick five-inch spiritual talons.

It tore fiercely towards the Jade Qilin Snake, and in an instant, the spiritual light dispersed, and most of the flesh at the Qilin Snake’s seven-inch point was shredded away.

White Jade-like Spirit Blood flew in the air, and at the same time, Ye Xingliu’s Child and Mother Swords, in a mysterious rejoining, cut down the first Jade Qilin Snake!

Only two Jade Qilin Snakes were released from the Spirit Net; the one retained was the one just entering Foundation Establishment.

The two that escaped were nearly twice as large.

Now, the remaining Jade Qilin Snake was like a frenzy, its terrifying Jade Qilin Tail Saber slashing at the Lizard Lord’s long tongue!

In an instant, radiant Jade Light passed by, slicing a segment off the Lizard Lord’s long tongue!

A muffled groan of pain emanated from the Lizard Lord, its belly pulsating with bloodshot eyes appearing.

It could only continue releasing Earth Spikes, and its long tongue had already been retracted.

The Jade-eyed Hanging Eye Tiger continued to slash at the Jade Qilin Snake, but with no support from the Lizard Lord’s long tongue, its attacks were not enough to land on the agile Jade Qilin Snake.

It could only slash onto layers of White Jade Spiritual Light.

Ye Xingliu’s Child and Mother Swords began the encirclement, slowly easing the situation!

As for the Tier One Demon Beasts, they were firmly in the hands of the Ye Family Cultivators!

Ye Jingcheng, with his Iron Wood Token, paired with the Golden Scale Beast’s Earth Spikes, specifically targeted mid-stage First Tier Spirit Snakes.

Ye Jingcheng was self-aware of his limits.

The Golden Scale Beast wasn’t enough to defeat late-stage First Tier Spirit Snakes, not to mention the time-consuming risk of failure. With plenty of late-stage Qi Cultivation Cultivators in the Ye Family, and an abundance of late-stage First Tier Spirit Beasts, there was no need for him to intervene!

The Spirit Snakes released were those that Ye Xingliu deemed the Ye Family could handle, and they were released through the Spiritual Net Array.

This ambush Array was extraordinarily focused!

Had these Spirit Snakes and Spiritual Pythons come through the forest, the Ye Family might have faced more annoyance, but these creatures largely resided in the Jade Dragon Pool.

Coming down the swift river, not to mention the Spirit Powder of the Snake Ape Grass also played a role in the river.

Nevertheless, it was evident that the forest was also churning out many Spirit Snakes.

But those Spirit-Seeking Bees, along with the Big-headed Ants, caused not insignificant damage.

These Spirit Bees and Big-headed Ants, lurking in some leaves, waited for the snakes to frenziedly pass by and then would stab with proboscises or tail stingers!

Injecting Spirit Bee venom or the deadly poison from within the disproportionate head.

Soon, Ye Jingcheng managed to kill six mid-stage Tier One Demon Beasts, and at that moment, Ye Jingyong happened to kill a late-stage Tier One Cyan Ring Snake.

Everyone had substantial gains.

Even Ye Jingli, now using the Cyan-Scaled Python’s power and his many Magical Artifacts, had slain two mid-stage Tier One Spirit Beasts.

This journey, as long as it ends smoothly, the Spirit Beasts’ corpses harvested by the Ye Family would make their trip worthwhile!

Meanwhile, beside Ye Xingliu, the Lizard Lord slowly began to appear at some unknown point.

Its mouth was full of fresh blood, and with its long tongue, one of its best techniques, severed, its prowess was greatly affected.

Ye Xingliu handed a Pill to Ye Jingcheng.

“Jingcheng, feed some pills to the Lizard Lord first!” Ye Xingliu’s intention was quickly understood by Ye Jingcheng.

Even though the pill was a Tier Two Healing Pill, it was more about demonstrating Ye Jingcheng’s healing ability!

The Ye Family currently had three Foundation Establishment combat powers, not one could be spared, as the upcoming journey to Jade Dragon Valley promised even more treasures!

Ye Jingcheng fed the Spirit Pill to the Lizard Lord and placed his hand on its back.

Massive amounts of Treasure Light surged into the Lizard Lord’s body unseen and undetectable to others!

This step drained half of the Treasure Light from one page of the Treasure Book!

However, the result was excellent; the Lizard Lord’s mouth slowly ceased to bleed!

Ye Jingcheng, standing very close, sensed the Lizard Lord’s long tongue was seemingly mostly healed!

Yet the Lizard Lord did not extend its tongue again, instead continuing to use Earth Spike Skill!

It vanished again into thin air, disappearing without a trace.

Watching this, Ye Jingcheng gained new insights into the healing capabilities of Treasure Light.

One page of the Treasure Book’s Treasure Light could heal a dying Tier One Spirit Beast, but for Tier Two Spirit Beasts, one page might only heal half of their injuries!

This time succeeded so well also due to the Lizard Lord having consumed a Tier Two Pill!
