Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Chapter 544: Chapter 444: Roc Fish Set, Celestial Cloud Mountain Spirit (2-in-1)

The night was silent as water, and the starlight shone brilliantly without a word.

Only a group of mortals labored to carry enormous boxes; these boxes were crafted from special sinking wood, designed to retain the spiritual energy of the water within.

This type of sinking wood isn’t difficult to cultivate and grows quite easily.

The only flaw being its considerable weight.

Adding to the not-so-lightweight of the Cyan Fish itself, a substantial number of mortals are needed to transport them.

Due to years of carrying these boxes, the shoulders of these mortals were slightly hunched, resembling a slightly bent bow.

“Speed up, we’re approaching the Dragon Gate Festival. If there’s any delay, none of you can bear the responsibility!” commanded the supervising Qi Cultivation Cultivator imperiously, a Flying Sword appearing in his hands.

It seemed that if the people moved too slowly, they might suffer a few strikes from the sword.

Although mortals were often used here, their life and death seemed to be of little concern.

Of course, at this moment, Ye Jingcheng was not concerned with these matters but was engrossed in his Treasure Book, which depicted a massive, astonishing fish.

This fish was as enormous as a whale, and its two fins could transform into roc wings. Though it did not soar skywards, its extraordinary bloodline was evident.

Even if it wasn’t categorized under the Kunpeng True Spirit Bloodline, it wouldn’t be far off.

With five opportunities for bloodline advancement, it could allow the Demon Beast to cultivate to Tier Five or even Tier Six potential.

But soon, the fish shrank multiple times, transforming into a three-foot-long little Cyan Fish.

Different from other Cyan Fish, whose fins weren’t long, this Cyan Fish had exceptionally long fins, and its eyes were full of spirituality. Its cultivation aura was not at the early stage of Tier One but had unusually reached the mid-stage of First Tier.

While Ye Jingcheng marveled, he became increasingly determined about the family’s ambition to expand the breeding scale. Only by expanding the scale could a beast reverting to its ancestral bloodline potentially appear.

Now, with such phenomena in the Cyan Fish, if the descendants of something like the Thunder Rhinoceros Insect could revert once more, it would be even more terrifying.

While Ye Jingcheng pondered, all of the Spirit Fish boxes were loaded onto the Spirit Ship.

This Spirit Ship normally traveled over the sea and would only take flight in the air when faced with danger.

However, after watching for a while, Ye Jingcheng realized something unusual inside.

“Get down quickly! Your filthy mortal efforts are done, now leave!” the impatient Qi Cultivation Supervisor continued to shout.

Naturally, Ye Jingcheng obediently got down.

Though he couldn’t bear to watch the Spirit Fish disappear in the Ye Family,

This was not the time yet.

With his capabilities, not even thirty Foundation Establishment Cultivators could stop him.

Earlier, he had already marked the Spiritual Ship.

But the two people who had been carrying boxes with Ye Jingcheng had somehow already disappeared.

There was another round of Spirit Fish, and Ye Jingcheng was placed into a new team.

However, Ye Jingcheng soon discovered a few people had already entered the sea from the ship’s bottom and escaped into another sea domain.

Ye Jingcheng was clear that this was evidently someone fleeing with the fish.

He continued to act nonchalant, clutching his stomach.

“Immortal Master, urgent…”

“Make it quick!” The fierce gaze of the supervisor seemed as if he wanted to devour Ye Jingcheng, but seeing Ye Jingcheng arching his backside, he was afraid of spoiling his mood and waved his hand in disgust.

Ye Jingcheng jogged into the night.

…

Beneath the endless sea, two beams of Escape Light darted into the depths, headed toward the distant Celestial Cloud Island.

Celestial Cloud Island is the central hub of the Celestial Cloud Islands, known as the most prosperous area of the archipelago.

“Brother, can this fish really sell for thousands of Spirit Stones?” the cultivator behind spoke.

“Definitely more than that. This fish somewhat resembles the Ancient Roc Fish, possibly a reversion to its ancestral bloodline. The Purple Wood Sect is really a clueless sect, unable to even discover this and just keeps recruiting people!”

The face of the cultivator in front was broader, now filled with confidence.

“There’s movement behind!” However, the cultivator in front quickly sensed activity.

“Yuan Quan, did you leave a trail?” the broad-faced cultivator was filled with anger.

“Brother, I wouldn’t do that.”

“So fast, not good, it’s a Purple Mansion Cultivator!”

“You and I should split up and flee, each taking a Spirit Beast Bracelet!” The broad-faced cultivator’s eyes were deeply sinister. As far as he knew, there was only one Purple Mansion Cultivator in the entire Purple Wood Sect, and he was an old man.

Why would this old man come out in pursuit?

It was beyond his comprehension!

But just as the two dispersed, two Silver Needles shot through the water.

Instantly piercing through both of them.

The two Silver Needles were so fast, and given the guards were not paying attention, they pierced through in an instant.

As the bodies of the two drifted down, two figures clad in a Spirit-Blocking Robe emerged from the void in front.

The material of this Spirit-Blocking Robe was noticeably different from that made in the Yan Kingdom.

“Seventh Grandfather, Uncle Xingyu, I thought the family had a slip-up!” Ye Jingcheng’s figure arrived here and upon witnessing this scene, he couldn’t help but smile wryly.

The family is a Beast Taming Clan; how could they miss such a valuable Spirit Beast?

So this was set up here all along.

“Haha, Jingcheng, we worried you. This Cyan Fish could have a notable origin, and keeping it with the family might lead to accidents. So, spreading the word to entice someone to steal it away was preferable!” Ye Haifei spoke directly.

On Cyan Fish Island, there were tens of thousands of Cyan Fish being raised.

It was also an industry of the Purple Wood Sect, and though the profit in Spirit Stones wasn’t high, it was substantial and secretly provided some spiritual food for the Ye Family’s Spirit Beasts.

Not all fishes in the sea are Demon Beasts, especially in developed sea domains, where the emergence of Demon Beasts is rare. To hunt a demon, one usually needs to go to the Outer Sea.
