Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Chapter 1007: Chapter 701: Beast Valley Opens Wide, Chi Jin Tea

At Celestial Shadow Peak, the sun was high in the sky, and the mountain peak was already alive with various insect chirps and bird calls, occasionally accompanied by the roars of beasts.

Evidently, during this period, the Ye Family had already begun developing Spirit Beast Valley on Celestial Shadow Peak and Earth Shadow Peak.

Just like cultivators, spirit beasts actually thrive better in places with more abundant spiritual energy, which is especially beneficial for those with high breathing techniques or exceptional bloodlines.

Currently, the Ye Family is primarily nurturing the spirit beasts of the four Demon Kings.

Because these Demon Kings have the most spirit beasts, advancement pills are also easier to obtain.

For the Ye Family at present, Tier Two Spirit Beasts are already insufficient to meet the needs of some talented clan members; naturally, the future of the Ye Family is in attempting and advancing toward Tier Three Advancement Pills.

However, Tier Three Advancement Pills require the essence blood of special spirit beasts.

Undoubtedly, the groups of the four Demon Kings have a greater advantage in this regard.

Moreover, the establishment of these Beast Valleys will make it convenient for the clan members of the Ye Family to contract corresponding spirit beasts in the future.

This is also why the Ye Family has not sent the remaining Demon Kings back to guard the Taihang Mountain Range.

At this moment, Ye Jingcheng lazily stepped out of the cave dwelling, and his Divine Sense easily perceived everything in the Beast Valley.

The four types of Spirit Beast Valleys were established with remarkable smoothness, and as the spiritual veins of Celestial Shadow Peak gradually progressed toward Tier Five Spiritual Vein, these spirit beasts were more than willing to remain on Celestial Shadow Peak and Earth Conceal Peak.

After all, the Ye Family not only provides them with an environment but also offers them spirit beast meat and spirit pills. In the future, the Ye Family might even arrange for some powerful demon beasts to have dedicated cultivators to guide them in foraging and patrolling.

Besides these four Beast Valleys, the Ye Family has also established corresponding Water Attribute Demon Beast Valleys, Spirit Insect Valleys, and breeding Beast Valleys for economic-type spirit beasts like Mountain-devouring Rats and Forest Pigs on other Tier Three Spiritual Veins’ peaks.

In the Water Attribute Demon Beast Valley, they primarily nurture Silver Moon Pythons, Red Moon Pythons, and Water Spike Turtles, which are spirit beasts with notable bloodlines.

Simultaneously, a new beast valley is under development, which will focus on breeding Moon Spirit Pearls and Black Mushroom Fish in the future.

Nowadays, in the Desert Sea, the Ye Family stands distinctly apart from the usual cautious demeanor within the Yan Kingdom.

Here, there are no Divine Sense inspections by Nascent Soul powers, nor are there other forces infiltrating for poaching.

The Ye Family can truly unleash the full potential of a Spirit Beast Clan.

Developing Beast Valleys, nurturing and breeding spirit beasts, guiding the mutation of spirit insect populations, advancing beast communication cultivation, and aggressively nurturing the Spirit Root clan members—these are the most direct and bold development directions for the Ye Family.

Of course, Ye Jingcheng is also waiting for Ye Xuecang to return.

After all, Ye Xuecang still carries a Tier Four Listening Spirit Stone.

This Listening Spirit Stone was originally the spirit stone of the Mountain Spirit from the Yun Family, but because the Mountain Spirit was subdued by the Yun Family, its spiritual nature was erased with a spirit treasure, leaving only the spirit stone.

Nevertheless, if used as an array foundation in a supporting array, it can still capture a wide area.

Once the Listening Spirit Stone is placed atop Celestial Shadow Peak and Earth Shadow Peak, the security of the Ye Family is truly foolproof.

“Brother Cheng, have some tea!” Behind him, the delightful voice of Chu Yanqing spoke.

“Alright!” Ye Jingcheng accepted the spirit tea and drank it in one gulp. Perhaps due to last night’s indulgence, he genuinely felt a rare thirst.

While receiving the tea, Ye Jingcheng couldn’t help but look at Chu Yanqing twice, causing her to instantly blush.

“Brother Cheng, I haven’t cultivated any body cultivation techniques…”

“This Barbaric Tyrant Body Secret Manual, you can learn it whenever you have time. For cultivators like us, having a stronger physique is always a good thing!”

Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng felt a bit embarrassed but still took out a jade talisman.

For Chu Yanqing, being a spirit body herself, cultivating up to Nascent Soul stage is not a major issue, especially with him and the Peach Wood Demon.

Therefore, body refining not only strengthens the overall power but doesn’t really impede time.

It also eases Ye Jingcheng’s mind.

“Alright, I’ll cultivate while refining artifacts!” Chu Yanqing nodded.

During this period, she has been quite diligent, reviewing many good artifact refining skills and legacies left by the Zhang Family.

Currently, the Ye Family only has Ye Haicheng and Chu Yanqing as Tier Three Refiners.

The Ye Family certainly wouldn’t hold back on Chu Yanqing in this field.

With Chu Yanqing receiving the jade talisman, Ye Jingcheng raised his tea cup again, speaking about the spirit tea.

“Unexpectedly, this Desert Sea Oasis can produce Tier Three Chi Jin Tea; after drinking it, it leaves a lingering fragrance and a delightful aftertaste!” Ye Jingcheng’s cup of spirit tea was precisely from the Celestial Phoenix Oasis, and the only Tier Three tea tree.

Its tea not only has a unique, mellow flavor but can also refresh the mind and clear the eyes.

It even offers some assistance to the Star Illusion Eye.

The Ye Family has tried cultivating new tea plants using branches from this tea tree but invariably failed.

Those cultivated may be up to Tier Two High-grade at best, so this spirit tea is extremely valuable within the Ye Family, presently shared only among the Ye Family’s Purple Mansion and Golden Core cultivators annually.

“Perhaps it is due to the unfavorable desert conditions for the tea tree!” Chu Yanqing, with a faint smile, poured herself a cup and drank alongside him.

Although they weren’t bathed in morning sunlight, at this moment, gazing at the expansive range of the Celestial Phoenix Oasis and the faint sand dust rising in the distance.

The two shared a knowing smile.

At times, beauty lies in those around us.

After another look at the spirit tea, Ye Jingcheng returned to the stone chamber of his cave dwelling.

Although he was accustomed to living in a courtyard on Lingyun Peak, this stone chamber was no ordinary place; besides its spacious large chambers, the spiritual energy herein was exceptionally abundant.

This was previously a cultivation site for several True Masters of the Zhang Family, an array was set up above to draw the spiritual energy from the spiritual vein to this place.

Moreover, inside the stone chamber, there is an additional earth fire that triggers the alchemy and artifact refining rooms, which is extremely convenient for Ye Jingcheng and Chu Yanqing.

When the Ye Family found this place, there was also a Tier Three Top-Grade Artifact Refining Furnace left inside, which naturally is now in Chu Yanqing’s possession.

After Ye Jingcheng arranged the array, he then took out the Red Flame Fox.

At this moment, the Red Flame Fox once again transformed into its smallest form.

Seeing Ye Jingcheng nearby, it cried out eagerly, and when Ye Jingcheng extended his hand, it licked the palm with its crimson tongue.

Ye Jingcheng looked at the golden eyes of the Red Flame Fox, feeling a pang of heartache.

Although the Treasure Book had been used to treat it fully these days, there were still faint blood marks left in the Red Flame Fox’s eyes. The divine technique utilizing the Purple Fire Heart Flame to unleash the Cyan Yang Flame was indeed too powerful, with substantial backlash.

Nevertheless, Ye Jingcheng considered this normal. After all, the sudden emergence of the Five-Colored Fire would be terrifying without any limitations, even if Ye Jingcheng believed he had no countermeasures.

Of course, thinking of this, Ye Jingcheng was actually somewhat dissatisfied with the performance of those Demon Kings.

Unlike the spirit beasts he nurtured, which would achieve twelve when asked to perform ten.

Those Demon Kings, even with a soul contract, could at most achieve nine when asked to perform ten by Ye Jingcheng.

But this was an unavoidable situation.

After all, the Demon Kings were forced to give him the soul contracts.

“Lii Lii!” The Red Flame Fox now seemed eager to try, evidently aware that Ye Jingcheng was going to practice alchemy, and it couldn’t wait to showcase its capabilities.

After all, this was its first alchemy practice after advancing to Tier Four.

Ye Jingcheng didn’t immediately take out the Purple Jade Fruit but began directly refining the Purple Mansion Jade Liquid.

After not practicing alchemy for a while, he was also worried about being rusty and wasting a Purple Jade Fruit.

The spirit medicines he took out were items like White Ginseng and Vermilion Fruit, used to practice with the Spirit Cultivation Pill.

The Tier Two Spirit Cultivation Pill is neither high nor low, and it suits his spirit beasts’ tastes. Even the Red Flame Fox currently favors the Spirit Cultivation Pill but is uninterested in Tier Two Fire Attribute Spirit Pills.

“I know your fire technique has progressed significantly, but for alchemy, just use the Red Fire!” The Red Flame Fox still wanted to show off its Five-Colored Flames, but Ye Jingcheng shook his head and gently patted the Red Flame Fox’s head, telling it to behave.

Immediately, the crimson flame rose, causing the Green-Red Ox Furnace to emit a series of spirit shadows, completing the Yun Furnace in one go.

An hour later, a furnace of Spirit Cultivation Pills was revealed, filled with twelve full pills, among which seven had pill patterns.

That meant more than half.

This represented that his alchemy skill had improved greatly.

This filled Ye Jingcheng with incomparable joy, as the advancement of alchemy skill meant that with two Purple Jade Fruits, more Purple Mansion Jade Liquid could be refined.

Furthermore, he now had many Tier Four Spiritual Medicines and could try refining Tier Four Spirit Pills.

Of course, before that, he still needed to refine more Purple Mansion Jade Liquid and Water Attribute Spirit Pills, as Ye Xuefan was currently in the Late Stage of Purple Mansion. With more spirit pills, he could break through to the Purple Mansion Peak and use the Double-headed Turtle Beast to attempt a breakthrough to the Golden Core.

After completing the Spirit Cultivation Pills, Ye Jingcheng continued refining many Jade Soul Pills and Purple Soul Pills, which are rare spirit pills in the Ye Family.

Only on the third day of alchemy did Ye Jingcheng start refining the Purple Mansion Jade Liquid.

This wasn’t his first time refining it, but considering it his peak period, he was somewhat expectant.

To ensure success, he even reviewed his previous experiences of refining the Purple Mansion Jade Liquid and reflected on it before proceeding with the refining.

By now, the Yun Furnace could be completed instantly, and the melted medicine was much faster. This wasn’t Ye Jingcheng being careless; rather, with the cooperation of the Red Flame Fox, his control over the heat had improved tremendously.

Everything was just right, not even needing the Six-Part Alchemy Method.

This would actually increase the failure rate of alchemy, but Ye Jingcheng’s strong control at the moment eliminated any worries.

Everything proceeded smoothly, and a day passed.

The Green-Red Ox Furnace was filled with radiant glow, and Ye Jingcheng’s eyes were filled with joy.

Judging by the current state of completion, there might be at least three portions of Purple Mansion Jade Liquid, possibly even four.

Ye Jingcheng also continued to use the Spiritual Enhancement Secret Technique.

“Four portions!” As Ye Jingcheng cast the final spirit technique, the pill furnace cover flew up, revealing the fully filled Purple Mansion Jade Liquid inside.

Ye Jingcheng let out a long breath; the Ye Family’s Purple Jade Vine was limited, and the Purple Jade Vine in his Grotto Heaven hadn’t yet shown signs of fruiting.

But now with the first fruit producing four portions, the pressure was greatly reduced.

After all, with the current potential breakthrough candidates in the Ye Family, there were six to seven people at most.

He now had one more Purple Jade Fruit, and even if only two portions of Purple Mansion Jade Liquid were refined from the remaining fruit, it would be enough to handle the current situation.

“Lii Lii!” The Red Flame Fox proudly swung its four tails. Seeing Ye Jingcheng happy, it was evidently happy too.

With the Tier Three Fire Attribute Spirit Pill falling into its mouth, it couldn’t help crouching slightly.

Ye Jingcheng was about to infuse it with Treasure Light to prepare for the next alchemy.

But suddenly felt the spiritual energy surged rapidly.

This was clearly the trend of the spiritual vein breaking through to Tier Five!
