Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Chapter 143: Chapter 144: Ore Vein Crisis

At this moment, it was undoubtedly the final despair for everyone in the Chu Family.

With the death of Chu Xifeng, Chu Xixu was also nearing his end.

“Everyone, disperse and retreat!” Chu Xixu shouted loudly!

Of course, he only had time to say this one sentence before he had to maneuver his Magical Artifact and continue evading from afar, not giving Ye Xueliang a chance to close in!

He could feel Ye Xueliang’s Spiritual Energy depleting quickly, and with that massive Beast Pattern, he sensed that it was the Ye Family’s greatest secret!

With this secret, even if the Ye Family were a Golden Core Clan, the Taiyi Sect would not spare them!

And at this moment, the Blood Eagle once again released a Blood Blade, striking Chu Xixu’s shield.

He grunted, only to find that he had lost sight of the Five-Colored Poison Lizard again.

“Not good!” He jumped up directly!

Only to see a huge Earth Spike, and a long tongue, already stabbing toward him!

Yet it was still blocked by his Flying Sword.

But the figure of the Cyan Scale approached once again, and the simple spike drilled into his chest once more!

Chu Xixu died!

And other Qi Cultivation Cultivators were also chased down and killed one by one.

The surrounding Arrays played an excellent role.

…

On the secluded Jade Snow Mountain, a figure in a cyan robe hurried along.

He took out the Spirit Diagram and anxiously observed his surroundings.

Much to his frustration, there was no passageway as he had imagined.

The passageway led to a Dark River, which could lead directly away from Jade Snow Mountain.

So even if the Ye Family had a closed Trapping Array, he could still send out a message.

“Are you looking for the Dark River?” A voice sounded.

This caused the cultivator’s eyes to widen.

And the next moment, there was a muffled sound.

An old man’s gaze met the lingering eyes of the cultivator.

The two stared at each other oddly, a sight that would surely scare anyone who saw it.

And in an instant, the bloodlust in the old man’s eyes faded.

The figure casually used an Ice Freeze Skill to freeze him, then snapped his fingers, and the ice sculpture turned to nothingness, fell into the stream, and was slowly washed away.

The old man put away the Storage Bag and vanished quietly.

…

Inside the mountain valley.

“Fifteenth Uncle!” Ye Xingyu bowed respectfully to the Cyan Scale figure.

Only the latter had now transformed into the Spirit-Blocking Robe figure.

The face was unreadable.

But the other Xing and Jing Generation cultivators were greatly shocked!

The highest-ranking member of the Ye Family was not Ye Haicheng; there was actually a Xue Generation above him.

Several people couldn’t help but recall that decades ago, the Ye Family had purchased Foundation Establishment Pills, but they were snatched away by an unknown force.

The last two of the Xue Generation both perished, and it happened to be the Chu Family’s doing that time.

However, the Chu Family refused to admit it.

It wasn’t until the Ye Family presented evidence and escalated it to the Taiyi Sect that a resolution was reached.

Looking back now, that ambush might not have been a complete victory for the Chu Family.

“No one is to leak a single word of today’s events, not even to other clan members who also have Beast Communication Patterns. Also, gather all the Storage Bags, and collect all the Fire Pattern Rabbits, especially the young ones!” Ye Xingyu commanded.

The Chu Family had a small Spirit Stone Vein, a Spirit Medicine Garden here, and had bred many Fire Pattern Rabbits.

So even though this place was close to the Taihang Mountain Range, the Chu Family was unwilling to abandon it.

They even dispatched two Foundation Establishment Cultivators for defense, showing how much they valued it.

It’s known that in the Foundation Establishment Clans of the Taihang Mountain Range, each family usually has around five Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

Losing two at once was a significant loss for the Chu Family.

All the cultivators nodded, but no one mentioned mining the ore vein.

After all, mining was too time-consuming, so just getting a little something extra was sufficient.

“Everyone only has the time of half a stick of incense to collect treasures before this place is engulfed in flames!”

“Also, the arranged items must remain hidden!” Ye Xingyu declared.

With these words, everyone nodded, and Ye Xingqun’s Black Wood Ants and Five Poison Bees dispersed everywhere. The collected treasures, besides the Fire Pattern Rabbits and Raw Spirit Stone, would be distributed among the different clan cultivators according to their haul.

Meanwhile, they believed that if they could kill a few remaining members of the Chu Family, the harvest could be even greater.

Before long, Ye Xingqun emerged, holding a Storage Bag full of joy.

“Xingyu, just as you said, there’s a Fire Attribute Spiritual Medicine nearing maturity here!”

“And it’s a second-tier Three-star Fire Pattern Fruit!”

“Seventh Brother, since they can raise Fire Pattern Rabbits, there definitely has to be a Fire Attribute Spirit Fruit Tree here. Even though it’s adjacent to Jade Snow Mountain, the warm wind flows into the valley, clashing with the snow mountain. Abundant rainwater makes it no less fertile than Lingyun Peak, making this a treasure land even by Feng Shui standards.” Ye Xingyu nodded, but his eyes were full of joy as well.

After all, the Three-star Fire Pattern Fruit is most effective for second-tier Fire Attribute Demon Beasts, but it can also save Fire Attribute Cultivators from rigorous practice.

Moreover, this Three-star Fire Pattern Fruit is a major ingredient in many second-tier Fire Attribute Elixirs.

“Seventh Brother, is everything set up?”

“It’s all set, now it’s up to them to cooperate or not.”

…

Within a quiet peak, the terrain was dangerous, and the peaks were numerous.

One Foundation Establishment Cultivator from the Chen Family led a group of cultivators as they stealthily moved forward.

Everyone wore specially-made Spirit-Blocking Robes.

Only a pair of eyes was revealed, and each bore a Jade Ring on their arm, for identification.

“Everyone prepare, ahead is the Ye Family’s Spirit Stone Mine. The Ye Family’s Foundation Establishment is definitely at Taihang Market and their Clan Mountain, so even if others are hidden, they’ll head to Taichang Market!” The leading Foundation Establishment Cultivator said with excitement.

To them, since the Ye Family acquired this Spirit Stone Mine recently, it must be rich with Spirit Stones, and most families don’t exploit ore veins too quickly.

This allows the Spirit Veins below to continue nurturing new Spirit Stones, and although it can’t last indefinitely, over time, it can yield quite a few more Spirit Stones.

“Uncle Wu, do we need to survey it first?” someone asked.

“No need for a survey, the Ye Family’s Spirit Beasts are too unpredictable! We went over with the Clan’s Guardian Spirit Beast, so no worry even if the Ye Family has Foundation Establishment!”

“Just use an Array Talisman to break the Array!”

“Once the Array is broken, go in and kill!”

“As long as no one is left alive, the Ye Family will think it’s the Li Family, letting them fight amongst themselves!”

Upon hearing that, the man nodded repeatedly, took out a Spirit Talisman, and slapped it on the mountain forest ahead.

As expected, a Spirit Shield appeared.

This Spirit Shield was extremely thick, seeming to possess great defense.

At this moment, the Spirit Talisman activated and unfolded instantly.

With a loud bang, the Array Spiritual Shield collapsed. The Chen Family Foundation Establishment Cultivator and his group of cultivators rushed into the Spirit Stone Mine at once.

At the same time, a larger Trapping Array quietly rose around the mountain peaks.

This was also set by the Chen Family to prevent the Ye Family from escaping.

The arrangement of the formations showed that the whole operation was clearly premeditated!
