Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Chapter 86: Chapter 86: Spirit Vein Advancement Plan

In the meeting room, a jade talisman was being passed around by the group.

Soon, Ye Jingcheng received the jade talisman and pressed it against his forehead, noticing that among the three people mentioned, Ye Jingli and Ye Jingyun were also included.

Besides these two, there was also the fifth elder, Ye Jingfeng.

Among them, Ye Jingyun, the ninth elder of the Jing Generation, was at the Qi Cultivation Fifth Layer, while Ye Jingli and Ye Jingfeng were at the Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer.

Moreover, the backgrounds, advantages, style, and capabilities of these three individuals were almost completely recorded on it.

Of them, Ye Jingyun was neither biased nor outstanding, but excelled in his steady alchemy skill, and now, in his early thirties, he had reached the status of a Tier One Middle-grade Alchemist.

Ye Jingli, on the other hand, was considerably more divisive; while he was not tight-lipped, his artifact refining skill was decent, coupled with his creative nature.

Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng couldn’t help but reflect on his own standing, uncertain of what role he played according to this record.

However, he was clear that the Communication Beast Ceremony should be confirmed in his market.

By treating those spirit beasts, not to mention garnering votes from other family members, he was sure Ye Xinghe and Ye Xingliu would definitely vote for him.

This feeling was quite intriguing, and Ye Jingcheng glanced at Ye Haiping, hoping that he could clarify things only after the latter visits the Treasure Pavilion and brings up the matter.

Ye Jingcheng cast three affirmative votes.

For him, all three gave a fairly positive impression, with Ye Jingli being particularly close.

If it wasn’t his first time participating, he might have even vouched for Ye Jingli with a guarantee vote.

The outcomes were soon revealed.

Ye Jingyun, almost without a doubt, received fifteen votes out of eighteen, the highest vote count, passing without question.

Ye Jingfeng received eleven votes; Ye Jingcheng didn’t know much about this fifth elder, only that he idolized his eldest brother, Ye Jingteng, and usually held expectations for the Taiyi Sect.

The latter, obviously, was not suitable for mastering the Beast Communication Pattern, or else if the Taiyi Sect discovered the Ye Family possessed such a secret technique, they would have long come to borrow it.

Probably borrowing the secret technique would result in them ensuring secrecy.

And the best way to ensure secrecy would be to make them permanently shut their mouths.

Ye Jingli happened to secure twelve votes, right on the margin.

This scene made Ye Jingcheng exclaimed that Ye Jingli was lucky; if he hadn’t moved into the Inner Hall this time, Ye Jingli would have been one vote short and wouldn’t have been able to partake in the Communication Beast Ceremony.

“Alright, since Jingli and Jingyun have met the qualifications, start preparing the ceremony from today!”

“Next, we shall proceed to the clan meeting agenda, starting with two matters!”

“First, the entire clan is to begin secretly acquiring middle-grade spirit stones with Five Elements attributes and a large number of lower-grade spirit stones to prepare for the Spirit Ascension Grand Array, as the family’s Tier Two High-grade spirit veins are currently insufficient!”

“Therefore, the family Demon Hunting Hall needs to gather cultivators to head to the Taihang Mountain Range and intensify demon hunts. As members of the family’s inner hall, you must go at least twice in three years!”

“Does anyone have other opinions?”

Ye Xingliu continued speaking.

As these words were spoken, Ye Jingcheng’s mind stirred, it seemed that the Turtle Ancestor, after recovering from its injuries, exchanged its turtle shell and simultaneously ascended to become a Tier Three Great Demon.

No wonder during the last grand competition, Ye Jingcheng had constantly felt that the rainfall at Lingyun Peak was more abundant than usual.

With the emergence of a Tier Three Great Demon, the family’s Foundation Establishment cultivators could take another step forward. Thinking of this, he also couldn’t help but glance towards Ye Haicheng and Ye Xingliu.

Finally, his gaze fixed on Ye Haicheng.

This great-grandfather had not taken action for almost twenty years.

His cultivation remained eternally at the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment.

None of the cultivators had objections; given the Ye Family’s status among the four major families, unless they exposed more strength and aggressively developed new industries,

such actions would inevitably arouse more caution.

Otherwise, they could only expand the great spirit beast business.

Of course, this spirit beast business included both live and dead spirit beasts.

Hence, entering the Taihang Mountain Range to slay spirit beasts becomes the first choice.

If lucky enough, discovering another spirit ore vein would make things much easier for the Ye Family.

“Additionally, the one who contributes the most in this operation will receive twenty thousand contribution points, valid for ten years; this extra twenty thousand contribution points is an additional reward!” If prior was about family duties and responsibilities,

now this reward made everyone parched with excitement.

Twenty thousand contribution points equate to inheriting a Tier Two Spirit Beast in contribution, meaning that as long as one makes the greatest contribution during the family’s spirit vein upgrade process, they can secure a Foundation Establishment opportunity!

This was a hard-to-refuse temptation for every Jing Generation member and Xing Generation member under sixty.

Even Ye Jingcheng couldn’t resist; with his numerous beast patterns, inheriting a Tier Two Spirit Beast early on would hasten his Foundation Establishment breakthrough!

Although he was confident in advancing the Golden Scale Beast and Red Flame Fox to Tier Two Demon Beasts,

the time required would certainly not be short.

If he could establish his foundation first, the speed of gathering resources and spirit stones would be vastly different.

“The second matter is that the family has a greater shortage of spirit beast meat; the family’s captive Long-eared Deer is somewhat insufficient, and although the Red Section Fish farming has commenced, the current scale is small, spirit beast meat’s contribution point exchange mechanism in the family has a thirty percent premium!”

Upon hearing this, several people’s eyes lit up; in the Taiyun Mountain Range, finding cubs was challenging, but merely obtaining spirit beast meat was much simpler.

Ye Haiyi unexpectedly spoke up:

“Patriarch, I recently acquired information about sightings of a Lush Forest Pig Herd around Xiaochong Mountain in the Taihang Mountain Range!”

“However, that area falls within the Li Family’s operational range!” Ye Haiyi continued, visibly concerned.

“No matter, if the Li Family acts out of line, silence them. Their repeated provocations may leave us no choice but to eliminate their family!” Ye Xingliu’s eyes narrowed into slits, revealing an unmistakable surge of Celestial Fiend.

Within the Taiyi Sect’s territory, the Ye Family couldn’t pull any moves, but upon entering the Taihang Mountain Range, possibilities soared.

The Li Family being besieged by beast hordes seems plausible.

Their inability to escape appears justified too!

Ye Haiyi, upon hearing this line of thought, nodded and exhaled a relieved breath.

The Lush Forest Pig, although only a Tier One Mid-stage Demon Beast, was extremely abundant in producing spirit beast meat.

A mature Lush Forest Pig Spirit Beast could weigh a thousand catties, with Pig Kings reaching two thousand catties aplenty, enough to sell a significant amount of spirit stones.

Moreover, its meat’s delectable quality rivaled that of the Red Section Fish.

Not to mention, the price now included a premium.

The clan meeting continued to supplement with further details, Ye Jingcheng remained mostly silent throughout, but he learned a lot, making him quite content!

He signed up for the Lush Forest Pig operation that garnered contribution points.

Ultimately, depending solely on alchemy to acquire contribution points seemed a bit slow to him.

Currently, with his Red Flame Fox Golden Scale Beast, plus his own prowess, he dared to challenge a Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer opponent.

Capturing a large-bodied demon beast like the Lush Forest Pig he found himself possessing ample advantage.

Moreover, the family mandated inner hall cultivators to head there twice every three years.

Slaying Lush Forest Pigs presented far less peril.
