Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Chapter 556: Chapter 451: Moon Spirit Clam Race and Beasts Displaying Their Might! (Double Chapter)

The further out in the Outer Sea, the more chaotic it becomes.

A giant turtle emerged, snapping up a demon bird that flew across the water, sending water splashes extending for miles.

A terrifying Thunder Python released lightning that covered a vast sea area, almost engulfing a school of fish.

The Ye Family’s three members showed great patience towards these Great Demons, using a specially concealed Spirit Shuttle and deliberately avoiding danger.

Even when encountering Tier Two Demon Beasts, they did not easily attack and kill them.

For cultivators, battling with these Great Demons in the water is undoubtedly unwise.

Such an encounter, unless aided by an array, would be a thankless effort.

“That’s Crescent Moon Island in the distance!” Ye Xingliu’s eyes emitted spiritual aura as he spoke.

Ye Jingcheng followed the sound and looked, seeing that the island was small, and from above, it resembled a crescent moon.

This led Ye Xingliu to name it Crescent Moon Island.

Within the crescent’s arc, there lay a long shallow beach, where many sand crabs and green-armored crabs could be vaguely seen scuttling around.

“With so many sand crabs and green-armored crabs here, those must be the Gold-clawed Sea Heron’s food source. Let’s set up the array on the beach and wait for the Gold-clawed Sea Heron to arrive,” Ye Xingliu quickly assessed, glancing at Ye Jingcheng and Ye Xuefu, his tone hinting at inquiry.

It’s not that Ye Xingliu was lacking confidence, but given the shifts in strength, Ye Jingcheng’s cultivation was the highest. No matter how good Ye Xingliu’s decisions were, it was ultimately up to Ye Jingcheng to make the final call.

The three of them used the Spirit Shuttle to land on the island, then activated the Concealment Array, concealing themselves directly.

During this time, Ye Jingcheng’s Divine Sense was highly focused, but fortunately, the Gold-clawed Sea Heron wasn’t on the island, making the array setup exceptionally smooth.

A few bewildered green-armored crabs snapped their pincers in alarm, disturbing the surrounding sand, but the ocean waves soon washed everything back to normal.

As time passed, the array was fully hidden, the beach returned to peace, and the sand crabs and green-armored crabs once again emerged with their heads and large pincers.

…

Golden sunlight spread across the beach, making the sea water glimmer with gold.

The Ye Family’s three members waited for three days.

By now, their gazes showed a hint of impatience.

Though they had ample time, if the Gold-clawed Sea Heron had long since left, they would have been waiting in vain.

After all, aside from laying eggs, demon birds like these Spirit Beasts don’t usually have strong territorial instincts.

Moreover, once they find new prey points, they often forget the previous ones.

As dusk fell once more, more green-armored crabs and fish appeared on the beach.

These Spirit Beasts, each the size of a basin, had enormous pincers, with auras around the Mid-stage First Tier, moving in flocks.

The snapping sounds were like constant percussion, ceaseless.

In the sky, as the final glow of sunset vanished, the sky darkened to an inky shade, revealing a splendid array of stars and a half-full moon.

“Let’s wait another day. Though we can afford the delay, Uncle Nine needs us to hunt some demon beasts as much as possible!” Ye Xuefu spoke.

He was the highest in rank here and also responsible for the Hidden Island’s operations.

“Ninth Ancestor, Third Uncle, look!” At that moment, Ye Jingcheng suddenly pointed and spoke.

The moonlight and starlight intersected, casting a gentle glow on the beach, with the cool sea water shining with a delicate radiance.

Glittering, and the waves seemed calmer now, softly brushing past instead of harshly crashing onto the sandy stretch.

Soon, Spirit Pearls appeared on the beach, the shells reflecting bright light points, deep and somewhat dreamy.

They emitted varied spiritual lights, each with a different aura.

As the tides receded, more Spirit Pearls appeared on the sand.

A glance revealed not less than hundreds, including Tier One Spirit Pearls and Late Stage Tier Two Spirit Pearls.

With the Spirit Pearls appearing on the beach, the green-armored crabs and sand crabs were reluctantly forced into the water, holding their pincers high.

Though they were unwilling, the Spirit Pearls could unleash the Water Arrow Skill, formidable indeed.

A Tier Two Spirit Pearl’s Water Arrow Skill could pierce through a green-armored crab’s armor—no crab dared remain on the beach.

After all, breaking into Tier Two was extremely challenging for green-armored crabs and sand crabs.

“It’s the Moon Spirit Clam Race!” Ye Xingliu’s eyes showed an uncontrollable joy.

Though the Moon Spirit Clam Race might be unfamiliar to the Yan Kingdom’s cultivators, in the Cyan Cloud Sea Domain, it represents a steady channel of wealth and could even be considered a divine gift.

These Moon Spirit Clam Races can produce Moon Spirit Beads, which can enhance cultivation for water attribute cultivators, making them rare cultivation materials.

Additionally, for Cyan Cloud Sea Domain cultivators who consume many Demon Beast Inner Cores, it can purify and refine spiritual energy.

The benefits of refining demon beast inner cores into Spirit Pills lie in their abundance and relatively lower refining difficulty.

But more erysipelas and increasingly unstable spiritual energy follows—short-term is fine, but long-term, breaking through to the Golden Core is exceedingly difficult.

In this, despite the abundant Purple Mansion cultivators in the Cyan Cloud Sea, there aren’t many Golden Core True Masters, which is revealing.

The entire Cyan Cloud Sea Domain is much larger compared to any cultivation kingdoms in the Eastern Domain.
