Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Chapter 310: Chapter 300: Trapped Like a Turtle in a Jar?

The crimson flames quickly turned the three sides of the valley into a fire prison, and the towering flames, reaching about twenty feet high, resembled an impassable wall of fire.

Fire-Devouring Sparrows and Red Flame Cloud Lions flitted in and out of the flames.

The water of Jade Dragon Lake began to evaporate rapidly, with torrents of steam rolling back like a flying waterfall.

At this moment, Jade Dragon Valley was completely transformed into a Pill Furnace.

And all the cultivators within it became the ingredients inside.

Due to Tianzhen Ascendant’s orders, no one dared approach the valley’s exit. Even now, there were very few demon beasts at the exit, easily cleared by several Foundation Establishment Clan cultivators along with some Taiyi Sect disciples.

Many family cultivators fearfully glanced at the valley’s exit.

Though it was strictly prohibited, their desire for survival was hard to resist.

As soon as one makes the move, the rest would surely follow in a desperate bid to escape.

As time passed, in the sky, Red Rocs, Fire-Devouring Sparrows, and Cloud Lions lined up, their gaze fixed on the exit, ready to swoop down at any moment.

“First, set up the array. Besides that, don’t be stingy with your spirit talismans. As for spirit beasts, if this journey is successful, the clan will replenish them for you!” Ye Xingliu repeatedly exhorted.

At this moment, he, too, was at a loss, with the family’s cultivators dwindling from over thirty to just over twenty.

He could only bring out some spirit talismans, which were not difficult to buy on the market, a reasonable concession.

As for the hidden spirit beasts, he would not let others get their way.

Ye Jingcheng, however, appeared even more solemn at this moment.

He could not reveal the Three-tailed Red Flame Fox, nor the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon.

After all, their progress was evident, and even the true masters of the Taiyi Sect would covet his methods if they saw them.

The progress of spirit beasts and bloodline purification was not uncommon, but if such feats were achieved multiple times in a short period, it would certainly raise suspicion.

Boom, boom, boom!

Before the cultivators could prepare, the massive swarm of Fire-Devouring Sparrows swooped down again at the valley entrance, seeming to gain momentum from the mountain peak, diving even faster.

The flames they cast were even more vast and torrential.

And the Red Rocs and Cloud Lions in the sky weaved in and out.

As if not giving the cultivators a moment to breathe.

Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng, besides employing the Black Shield and Black Wood Coffin, continuously wielded the Profound Cold Ice Shield.

With the break of the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon, he could now more adeptly conjure the ice shield, its size reaching thirty to forty feet.

However, due to the overwhelming fire attribute spiritual energy filling the valley, conjuring had become difficult.

He could only manage an ice shield about twenty to thirty feet in diameter.

Besides Ye Jingcheng’s methods, Ye Xingliu and Ye Jingyu also began exhibiting their techniques.

The former released five or six Tier Two water attribute spirit talismans, including the Tier Two Ice Arrow Skill, Tier Two Water Dragon Technique, and Tier Two Frenzy Sand Skill.

He also wielded an azure-purple stone shield, which, when thrown, expanded to five or six feet in size.

As for Ye Jingyu, needing to conceal his identity, he unleashed around ten spirit talismans.

This scene made Ye Jingyu’s pupils constrict slightly, seemingly heartbroken.

He had lent ten thousand spirit stones to Ye Jingcheng at a trade fair, and now, due to defense, threw out seven or eight Tier Two spirit talismans.

Their value was not far off tens of thousands of spirit stones.

The crimson flames smashed against the defense spiritual shield, with the array set up by the Ye Family breaking first. The damage dealt by so many Tier Two flames was comparable to Tier Three demon fire.

Next were the shields, followed by various spirit talismans and spirit beasts from the Ye Family.

The Cloud Lions were the most troublesome; unlike the Red Rocs, they were slower but their four paws were increasingly sharp, infused with gold attribute innate Golden Light Skill.

Even with a single claw, they could wound the Golden Scale Beast, not to mention the other demon beasts of the Ye Family.

Fortunately, with the collective exertion of everyone and countless magic techniques, they managed to barely hold on.

At this time, the Cloud Lions and Red Rocs began to hover and ascend, with the Fire-Devouring Sparrows continuing to spew flames as cover.

The Ye Family could not fight back even when they took the opportunity to hover back.

Ye Jingcheng glanced angrily around, as, just in that short time, the Ye Family had lost three more people, and ten-odd demon beasts had died.

The remaining family members were left with juvenile spirit beasts to deploy.

However, looking at the other families, Ye Jingcheng found their situation even more dire, only with the Taiyi Sect faring slightly better, leaving several Tier Two demon beast corpses.

Furthermore, many families had also used their trump cards.

He saw Tier Two Iron Corpses rampaging and Tier Two Wood Giants, evidently a Wood Demon.

Only, under the flames, releasing the Wood Demon was a clear sign of desperation.

From three sides of the valley mouth, Long-tailed Flame Wolves and Fire Pythons began leaping off the steep mountain cliffs, and in the sky, more Red Rocs and Fire-Devouring Sparrows appeared this time.

As if they intended to slaughter all the cultivators here.

Within the valley entrance, a vast number of Armor-Piercing Beasts, Golden Scale Beasts, and various earth attribute ape demon beasts surged forth.

Despair filled the eyes of many family cultivators, realizing their only way out was completely sealed off.

And on the stone walls in the sky, beams of light started to appear.

These lights were incredibly sudden, resembling spirit seeds, which amazed Ye Jingcheng.

As if thinking of something, he shouted loudly:

“Quick, use all your attack methods, no need to hold back!”

Some cultivators were still slow to react, continuing to use their most effective defensive measures.

But there were quite a few from the Ye Family that complied.

For instance, the displeased Ye Jingli, Ye Jingyong, and Ye Xingliu, among others.

The Chu Family and Wan Family also had several follow suit, but ultimately not many.

Their attacks landed on the Fire-Devouring Sparrows and Red Rocs, with little deterrence.

But the surrounding lights reached their pinnacle, transforming into a dazzling array.

“Thousand Stars Unification Array!” Ye Xingliu murmured.

Indeed, many cultivators were thinking the same at the moment.

This array was famous within the Taiyi Sect, only arranged atop the Taiyi Illusion Peak.

No one expected Jade Dragon Valley to have already been laid with it.

At this moment, terrifying starlight transformed into streams of star blades, shooting wildly in the sky, piercing countless Cloud Lions and Red Roc Fire Sparrows, causing them to fall from the air.

“Quick, gather the remnants!” Ye Jingcheng shouted at this moment.

In this exploratory battle, demon beasts slain by the array were credited to the previous attackers, so the Ye Family could completely claim the demon beasts they had just attacked.

As for those they hadn’t attacked, they were to be left to the sect.

Though not many, it was still good news for the heavily battered families.

With the sky cleared of Red Rocs and Fire-Devouring Sparrows, the remaining Long-tailed Flame Wolves and Armor-Piercing Beasts and Golden Scale Beasts at the valley entrance became less troublesome.
