Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Chapter 228: Chapter 227: Arrival of the True Masters

At the entrance of Spirit Beast Valley, everyone was pondering strategies to deal with the beast tide.

Despite this, everyone was stunned by Mo Hongyuan’s words.

Then their eyes were filled with confusion and sympathy.

The Ye Family and Xu Family have long been at odds, but there’s never been animosity with the Mo Family, and they even deeply collaborated in the past.

The new restaurant with the Mo Family might have some future impact.

Still, that’s a matter for the future. When it comes to Spirit Wine, the Ye Family is no match for the Mo Family.

So at this moment, Mo Hongyuan’s attempt to frame the Ye Family seemed to them nothing but a rash act driven by desperation.

For the many families in Taihang Commandery, and even some forces in Taichang Commandery, joining forces to face the beast tide is most crucial.

After all, those who can settle their families in Taihang Commandery are mentally prepared for this. The reason Taihang Commandery could remain peaceful in the past is because of this.

They just can’t refuse the benefits of Taihang Mountain Range and don’t wish to leave Taihang Commandery.

Furthermore, in another perspective, the Ye Family now occupies the Li Family’s territory, even the mortals have migrated there.

If the beast tide passes Buqing Mountain and Cloud Valley to attack the Mo Family, the Ye Family would also suffer heavy losses.

Not to mention, the Ye Family has just been promoted to a Purple Mansion Clan, their Purple Mansion Cultivators now stand with them.

Even the Foundation Establishment Cultivators of the Ye Family, none have gone missing.

Even if the Ye Family intended to plot against the Mo Family, they would need the strength to do so.

Could they send a Qi Cultivation Cultivator or a hidden Tier Two Spirit Beast away?

Let’s not forget, they know the number of the Ye Family’s Foundation Establishment Cultivators. The Ye Family can’t refine Foundation Establishment Pills, and Ye Jingcheng and Ye Jingyu only emerged because Master Jiang of the market left two pills behind during an auction.

They didn’t realize it initially, but now they understand that Master Jiang actually sold those two Foundation Establishment Pills to the Ye Family.

As Mo Hongyuan spoke, even the face of Tianzhen Ascendant sank.

“Mo Hongyuan, today, if you can’t explain clearly, don’t even think about leaving!” Ye Haicheng’s eyes were filled with terrifying brilliance.

This moment, Ye Haicheng was frighteningly formidable.

As Mo Hongyuan was looked at like this, his face also showed panic, and his heart spirit was somewhat in a daze.

“You’ve had Purple Mansion Cultivators for a while now and kept them hidden…”

“We certainly broke through to the Purple Mansion early on, but do you think I would break through today just for a ceremony?”

As these words were spoken, Mo Hongyuan was again taken aback, and his back went cold.

The Ye Family still had other Purple Mansion Cultivators, as Mo Wenchen had informed him.

But now, he suddenly recalled that Mo Wenchen mentioned this during the previous discovery by the Mad Corpse Fiends, at a time when Ye Haicheng hadn’t broken through to the Purple Mansion.

The only ones who could confront them then were Li Yulan from the Li Family and Chen Xuan’an from the Chen Family.

However, these two are now missing and not dead, making it impossible to prove the Ye Family had other Purple Mansion cultivators.

Unless Mo Wenchen attended a confrontation.

But even if Mo Wenchen weren’t there, the Mo Family would still fall to the same reputation as the Li Family.

Boom!

Before Mo Hongyuan could continue to ponder, a terrifying Spiritual Might already descended upon him, as a late-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator, he naturally held his pride.

Yet this moment, he felt as though a mountain had pressed down on him, forcing him downward.

The gap between Purple Mansion and Foundation Establishment is too great; even using all his might, he could only struggle to control it.

Mo Hongyuan even sensed that Ye Haicheng had murderous intent!

This scene filled Mo Hongyuan with panic.

“Elder Ye, it was a rash act by the junior, my Mo Family is willing to offer compensation!” Mo Hongyuan spoke repeatedly.

“Considering this was an unintentional act for the family’s sake, Ye Daoist, let’s spare them for now.” Tianzhen Ascendant spoke solemnly.

The Mo Family still has certain connections within the sect, otherwise Tianzhen Ascendant would have intervened directly against a typical family.

“However, an unintentional act still bears a price.” Tianzhen Ascendant added, brushing his sleeve.

Having said this, he left.

Leaving alongside him was Supreme Taihao.

As for Ming Yuan Ascendant, he hurried to Xianyun Peak of the Chu Family together with Chu Xiyu of the Chu Family.

Though the beast tide had its focus, it also covered the entire Taihang Commandery.

Every family was exceptionally urgent.

Even though cultivators hunted demon beasts every year in Taihang Mountain Range,

the true demon-beast-rich areas remain the inner areas and the opposite side of Taihang Mountain Range.

Thus, every few decades or centuries, a beast tide would form.

This time, the beast tide was only unusual because it was so sudden.

Moreover, it was the first time a Demon King intervened, catching everyone by surprise.

Supreme Taihao and Tianzhen Ascendant also set up a Tier Three Array on Lingyun Peak first.

Although the Ye Family had ascended their Spiritual Vein to Tier Three, their Mountain Protection Array remains the previous Tier Two High-grade Array.

Being Steward Elders of Taiyi Illusion Peak, Supreme Taihao and Tianzhen Ascendant are naturally too familiar with arrays.

Soon, they set up a Yin Yang Celestial Fire Array and a Four Phase Black Tortoise Array.

These arrays belong to Tier Three Middle-Grade Arrays; one emphasizes attack, the other defense. Though insufficient against a Demon King, they are enough for defense against some Great Demons.

The coverage area of the two arrays is extremely vast. It’s important to note that although Lingyun Peak of the Ye Family is named a peak, it is actually a very long and narrow mountain.

The Spirit Beast Valley and Spirit Lake on the mountain alone cover nearly ten miles, not to mention the even more expansive spirit fields planted at the foot of the mountain.

The Ye Family originally settled here because of Lingyun Peak’s vastness and grandeur.

However, these two Tier Three Arrays still have room to spare.

But this matter, after some thought, becomes clear. It should be known that the Taichang Mountain Range of the Taiyi Sect spans over ten thousand miles and is completely occupied by the Taiyi Sect.

There are countless mountain peaks, both large and small, naturally requiring a large number of arrays with extremely wide coverage.

Lingyun Peak of the Ye Family, in the Taichang Mountain Range, can at most be considered a slightly larger mountain peak.

Perhaps a single Purple Mansion Cultivator could occupy such a mountain peak on their own.

“Ye Daoist, this time it’s my Xuan Dao Master Uncle from Illusion Peak and Myofa Master Uncle from Purple Peak who are coming. Now that you are an Outer Sect Steward of the Taiyi Sect, you understand more, even if I don’t say it!” The Tianzhen Ascendant, having just set up the array, let out a long sigh of relief and looked at Ye Haicheng.

Seemingly worried that Ye Haicheng might harbor resentment over what happened earlier.

Indeed, Mo Hongyuan’s earlier act of trying to push the Ye Family towards opposing the Taiyi Sect was rather excessive.

However, this time, the Myofa True Master from Purple Peak is also the one who has previously protected the Mo Family lineage.

If we were to truly kill, at that time, whether it’s the Ye Family or the Tianzhen Ascendant, they would both bear great risks.

Previously in the Taihang Commandery, the ones controlling these Foundation Establishment Clans and Purple Mansion Clans were Dharma Peak of Illusion Peak and Purple Peak, respectively.

Among them, the family under Dharma Peak were the most numerous, including the Xu Family, Li Family, and Chen Family, while Purple Peak controlled the Taihang Commandery via the Mo Family and Chu Family.

Only Illusion Peak had connections with the Ye Family.

Yet, the Ye Family, previously weak, was not supported by Illusion Peak, naturally appearing more mediocre.

In recent years, however, the feedback from the Ye Family has increased considerably, and after repeated issues from Dharma Peak, Illusion Peak set its sights on the Taihang Commandery.

After all, behind the Taihang Commandery is the Taihang Mountain Range.

After developing the Taichang Mountain Range, the Taiyi Sect also wanted to focus on the larger and more expansive Taihang Mountain Range.

If Illusion Peak could control the Taihang Commandery, future benefits could be even greater.

…

On Cyan Willow Mountain, the Three-eyed Demon King stood with his Heaven-Reaching Wings, unmoving.

In the distance, two spiritual ships arrived one after the other, revealing the figures of Master Xuan Dao and Master Miaofa.

The two True Masters stood upon the massive spiritual ship. Although their stature couldn’t compare to the Three-eyed Demon King, their aura wasn’t diminished in the least.

Their eyes were sharp as swords, ready at any moment to wield their magical treasures and suppress the Three-eyed Demon King.

“Three-eyes, you have crossed the boundary!”

“Crossed the boundary? Hmph, I’ve been waiting here for you for so long, not to listen to your scoldings!”

“My most cherished offspring was sneaked away by your despicable human race. Today, even if I killed the despicable source, it was just some ants. It doesn’t relieve the hatred in my heart. Let you two bear my wrath!” The Three-eyed Demon King roared with fury.

As these words were spoken, his whole body’s roc feathers began to glow with a red haze, transforming into an even larger firebird.

As the wings flapped, several firebirds soared forth.

Additionally, his eye on the forehead aligned with them and shot multiple red treasure lights, directly blasting towards the two True Masters.

“You’ve broken through again?” Both Master Miaofa and Master Xuan Dao furrowed their brows.

They hadn’t expected that this Three-eyed Demon King, having another breakthrough within a hundred years, had now reached the Late Stage of Tier Four, comparable to a cultivator in the Late Stage of the Golden Core.

For demon beasts with exceptionally strong bloodlines, fellow cultivators at the same level, without formidable magical treasures, would surely suffer.

The Three-eyed Demon King belonged exactly to such a category.

Not to mention, at this moment, the Three-eyed Demon King had even suppressed them by a Small Tier.

Fortunately, they came together!

Master Miaofa produced a yellow Daoist Scripture Treasure, while Master Xuan Dao summoned a golden duster.

The Daoist Scripture Treasure and the duster clashed with the red firebirds.

For a time, spiritual might roared, and the spiritual waves spilled over, flattening more than half of Cyan Willow Mountain, which was not covered by the array.

The entire mountain range was filled with falling rocks and dust.

Even after the dust settled, both Master Xuan Dao and Master Miaofa were in a sorry state.

Their throats swelled, as if blood was brewing within.

Clearly, the two were at a disadvantage.

“Trash!” The Three-eyed Demon King cast a provocative glance towards the Taiyi Sect, then directly used his Heaven-Supporting Wings to fly towards the Taihang Mountain Range.

Simultaneously, flying along were a dozen or so Three-Eyed Red Rocs.

These roc birds chirped incessantly, as if belching.

Both Master Xuan Dao and Master Miaofa were now grim.

Being mocked and ridiculed by such a demon bird, they naturally harbored deep resentment.

But at the same time, they hated the Mo Family even more.

Especially Master Miaofa, whose intention to support the Mo Family vanished in an instant.

When the Three-eyed Demon King left, he took out that Easter Egg. They also saw the soul shadow of the demon king being triggered, and even a trace of the Blood Contract’s shadow remained.

It was evident that the Mo Family executed the Blood Contract, activating the demon king’s soul shadow as protection.

This was what caused the slaughter of the beast tide this time!
