Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Chapter 453: Chapter 395: Rejuvenating Flower and Soul Nourishing Grass (2-in-1 Thanks to Fatty Baby Bottle, Alliance Leader 1)

The golden dawn once again illuminated everything, turning the entire mountain range into gold.

Ye Jingcheng woke from his cultivation and looked out the window to see the willows beside Cyan Willow Lake, also turned into golden willows, gracefully swaying in the wind.

Overall, a sunny day is good; accustomed to the beast tide’s dreary rain, just a cloudy day feels as if the beast tide could come at any moment.

Now, as the sunlight shone on him, besides warmth, there was also a hint of laziness.

He could also feel that the Four-Phase Spiritual Energy within him had increased again.

The water phase of the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon continued to lead, followed by the fire phase, and finally the wood and earth phases.

As for the gold phase’s Golden Falcon, it seemed the spiritual energy had reached a peak, clearly, his cultivation was thoroughly at Tier Two Peak, with no further progress.

To continue increasing, he must refine a Tier Two Golden Falcon Pill and consume the inner core of a Tier Three gold attribute spirit beast.

With this combination, Ye Jingcheng has great confidence in breaking through with the Golden Falcon.

Currently, he is also trying to merge the gold phase spiritual power into the other four phases.

His interest in the Five Phases generation and restriction is very strong.

However, even though he has the Beast Communication Pattern to communicate gold attribute spiritual power, he lacks a gold attribute spirit root, so he can only use the gold phase spiritual power without merging or refining.

Even when activating a cultivation technique, it only achieves a temporary balance, but quickly dissipates.

This result only makes Ye Jingcheng sigh.

Sometimes he thinks how nice it would be to have Five Spirit Roots, but cultivation is such that some desire a single spirit root, others wish for five.

In truth, it’s unnecessary to consider those.

After all, for so many years in the Cultivation Realm, none have written which spirit root can ascend to immortality or which cannot, indicating all is possible.

As Ye Jingcheng pondered, a solemn bell tolled atop the mountain.

With Master’s return on the second day, the eagerly anticipated meeting finally commenced, with the sky once more revealing the well-known Master Miaofa.

Beside Cyan Willow Lake, a high platform had already been constructed.

Taiyi Sect’s Sword Cultivators descended on both sides of the platform, presiding over the situation.

Master Miaofa sat in the center of the platform, and even without saying a word, everyone felt somewhat breathless.

The aura of a Golden Core True Master, even Ye Jingcheng, felt considerable pressure at this moment.

Once everyone arrived.

Kong Yulong from the Kong Family and Jin Zongliang from the Jin Family almost simultaneously bowed and spoke:

“Junior pays respects to Master Miaofa.”

Then the other cultivators began to salute one-by-one.

All of this ceremonial etiquette, in Ye Jingcheng’s eyes, only serves one purpose: making the loose cultivators more humble and Taiyi Sect more sacred.

This time, with such great losses in Taihang Commandery, the Ye Family naturally bears responsibility, but so does Taiyi Sect.

Yet now it seems Taiyi Sect appears as the savior.

While the loose cultivators are portrayed as the villains seeking repentance for releasing the beast tide.

Ye Jingcheng was calm amidst the crowd, much like the sect’s regulations, as the family rules were also numerous.

Thus he was quite used to it.

Beside him, Ye Jingli and Ye Jingyong stood to his sides, and they were quite serious.

After careful consideration for half a day, Ye Jingyong chose the most expensive option: the spirit beast egg of the Silver Moon Python Great Demon.

With the potential to advance four times into a Silver Moon Flood Dragon, its potential is also immense.

Of course, the debt of contribution points increased further, from a gap of ten thousand to one thousand and seven hundred contribution points owed.

This contribution point estimation was measured by Ye Jingcheng, who had the Treasure Book, ensuring no error.

He set high contribution points and provided insights that were uniquely his.

Ye Jingyong had great trust in this, initially worried but immediately agreeing excitedly upon hearing it was a young beast egg born from the half-flood dragon with flood dragon bloodline.

Ye Jingcheng estimated that even with an additional two thousand contribution points, Ye Jingyong would accept.

Apart from the Silver Moon Python young beast egg, Wangyue Lake yielded other bountiful gains, though the captured Tier Two demon beasts were given to Hidden Peak for slow refinement.

For Ye Jingyong and Ye Jingli, obtaining the young beast eggs was better.

After all, he would be refining a large amount of water rank and earth rank pills next.

“Today, I convene this meeting to merely summarize.” On the high platform, Master Miaofa finally spoke.

He slowly stood up, and everyone felt like an insurmountable mountain stood before them.

“Regarding this beast tide, you all must have seen, recently rumors abound, petty villains stirring trouble, and over a hundred loose cultivators hiding their cultivation and even daring to snatch flood dragon blood openly in court; such actions truly neglect the sect!” Master Miaofa raised his hand, Spiritual Light flickered.

In the distance appeared a pile of ten corpses.

Ye Jingcheng looked at the corpses afar, noticing two Purple Mansion Ascendants among them, with the remaining eight being Foundation Establishment Cultivators he recalled from the beast tide.

However, the person who first snatched flood dragon blood was not present.

This scene made the whole meeting’s atmosphere intriguing.

Ye Jingcheng was somewhat worried, fearing the scenario where thousands of people might inquire spirits.

However, evidently, the Taiyi Sect didn’t reach such a point.

Instead, it fully ensured the magnanimity of the Great Sect.

“The cause of the beast tide is still being investigated by the sect, but rest assured, although the Silver Moon Demon King is not dead, it won’t be able to wreak havoc for a century!” Master Miaofa spoke again.

“Thus, all the families in Taihang Commandery can continue to develop within it, and any Foundation Establishment cultivators wishing to establish a family can also apply to the sect!”

“Additionally, the sect will purchase materials from this beast tide. After all, everyone has done a great service in this beast tide, and the sect will open an exchange list for everyone, instead of just offering Spirit Stones!” With that, Master Miaofa directly announced the end of the conference.

Loose cultivators wishing to leave could depart.

Apparently, those with guilty consciences likely left quietly yesterday, and for those who remain here peacefully, Taiyi Sect doesn’t need to inquire spirits anymore; even if they tried, it might yield nothing.

Rather, it would lose face for the sect.

As for the Kong Family and Jin Family, they must have suffered considerable losses; otherwise, Taiyi Sect wouldn’t completely neglect to mention them.

Ye Jingcheng even suspected that the wealth of the Xu Family and Chu Family might have fallen into the sect’s hands.

Ye Jingcheng pondered many things, but soon, he shook his head.

The lake surface has never been calm. What he can do is ensure the stable development of the Ye Family and cherish this hard-earned opportunity.

Indeed, for him, the Taiyi Sect’s exchange list is also an opportunity.

He brought the Five Elements Celestial Secret Technique from the Desolate Secret Realm.

This technique can condense several Purple Mansions, thus increasing the probability of breaking through the Purple Mansion, and later can add some assurance for breaking through to Golden Core and Nascent Soul.

This was also the reason Xu Hanqing of the Xu Family was eager to enter the Secret Realm despite not having recovered cultivation.

And this Five Elements Celestial Secret Technique needs to be supplemented with Purple Spirit Concentration Liquid.

Normally, if a cultivator condenses Purple Mansions separately, they would instantly repel each other and collapse.

The wonder of the Five Elements Celestial Secret Technique lies in its ability to prevent interference, allowing all Spiritual Phases to condense before fusing the Purple Mansion.

The Purple Spirit Concentration Liquid requires Thousand-year Rejuvenation Flower, Soul Nourishing Grass over five hundred years old, and Purple Vermilion Fruit over eight hundred years old.

The Ye Family has already found the Purple Vermilion Fruit, and other auxiliary materials have been collected. Only the Thousand-year Rejuvenation Flower and Soul Nourishing Grass are missing.

Originally, he planned to purchase them after breaking through the late stage of Foundation Establishment by relying on Ye Jingteng, but now Taiyi Sect can exchange them.

This makes it much more convenient for him.

The Thousand-year Rejuvenation Flower is widely used and not a Spirit Medicine for breaking through to Purple Mansion, so Ye Jingcheng doesn’t worry about revealing anything.

He is now a Tier Two High-grade Alchemist, so collecting rare spirit medicines is quite reasonable.

As for the Soul Nourishing Grass, it is much more precious than Jade Soul Grass.

“Patriarch, let’s go and take a look!” Ye Jingli and Ye Jingyong were both looking forward.

The former witnessed the power of the Red Flame Python and is now wholeheartedly focused on cultivating Red Flame Pythons, while Ye Jingyong purely wants to join the bustle; he wants to see the foundations of the Taiyi Sect.

The exchange list for everyone was placed in a great hall beside Cyan Willow Lake, which naturally belonged to the Jin Family.

It functioned as the Assembly Hall, but when Taiyi Sect needed to requisition it, the Jin Family dared not utter a word and had to instead engrave several more Spirit Gathering Arrays around the hall.

The Spiritual Energy at Cyan Willow Mountain was noticeably weaker than when Ye Jingcheng arrived.

Now arranging Spirit Gathering Arrays requires inserting plenty of Spirit Stones, maximizing losses.

If they can buy materials from all the loose cultivators, that’s still good; after all, many materials from Tier Two Demon Beasts can be refined into magical artifacts, and Spiritual Flesh can be made into Spiritual Cuisine, supplied to body cultivators.

The Silver Moon Python and Red Moon Python have exceptionally high Blood Qi among python beasts, greatly benefiting body cultivators.

Take Ye Jingyong, who pursued and killed three Blood Moon Pythons this time.

This allows his cultivation technique’s blood qi to achieve greater breakthroughs.

Ye Jingcheng gave him a Silver Moon Python hoping the latter would cultivate it; the Silver Moon Python’s Scale Armor’s defense is among the best Ye Jingcheng has seen.

If not for his Jade Qilin Flood Dragon bloodline having so many advancement opportunities, he might truly be raising that Silver Moon Python beast himself.

Honestly, now, he has little regard for anything with fewer than four advancement opportunities, except for special spirit beasts.

To him, such have little value for cultivation.

The group arrived in front of the great hall, and Ye Jingcheng initially wanted to line up but was told he could use the exclusive family exchange queue on the side.

Ye Jingcheng naturally nodded in gratitude and went to the side table where the Jin Family and Kong Family were also exchanging.

The spirit medicines and various materials on the exchange list were generally priced ten percent higher than usual market rates.

Moreover, one had to wait for the sect to allocate from the Taichang Mountain Range.

Yet few people refrained from exchanging.

After all, exchanging also showed an attitude to the sect.

Moreover, the sect’s treasures were indeed quite rare.

At a glance, even magical artifacts were available for exchange.

But Ye Jingcheng was naturally not going to exchange for this; instead, he found the Soul Nourishing Grass and Rejuvenating Flower, exchanged for enough materials to refine two portions, and then satisfactorily left.
