Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Chapter 1009: Chapter 703: 10 Beast Shadows, Sand Ginseng Scorpion (2-in-1)

At dawn, as the sun rose, the sunlight became exceptionally intense despite the early hour.

Many buildings have already been successfully constructed atop Celestial Shadow Peak.

Glazed tiles of various colors shimmer brilliantly under the sunlight.

At this moment, a massive structure rang out with the sound of bells on the shady side of the mountain.

This is the newly built Ancestral Hall of the Ye Family, now the most solemn building of the Ye Family.

Within, not only are the records of clansmen from Lingyun Peak who have passed, but also many from other Hidden Peaks, the most comprehensive ancestral records of the Ye Family, even containing many names from the senior generations.

The entire Ancestral Hall towers nine zhang high, with ninety-nine cyan lamps and hundreds of bright red candles inside.

Incense offerings are made day and night, keeping the lamps and candles burning perpetually.

At this moment, atop the massive black lacquer Eight Immortals Table, there is also the demon head of a Tier Four Three-headed Bird Demon King, along with numerous offerings of fruits and spiritual foods.

In front of the neatly arranged ten zafus, Ye Jingcheng and the Earth Dragon Demon King kneel in homage.

Ye Xuefan then takes sandalwood and places it into the incense burner, waiting for the smoke to transform into a dragon shadow, rising slowly.

Ye Xuefan also mutters rituals.

…

“Alright, Jingcheng, you may begin!” When the ceremony ends, Ye Xuefan looks toward Ye Jingcheng and the Earth Dragon Demon King.

At this moment, the Earth Dragon Demon King stands in utmost respect before the Ye Family Ancestral Hall, his gaze lingering long on the senior generations.

He then looks towards previous generations before finally pausing beneath dozens of names from the junior generation.

He wishes to look further forward, but there are no names ahead.

His gaze shows a bit of surprise but also a sense of inevitability.

He then follows Ye Jingcheng in rising.

Only, Ye Jingcheng walks toward the Tai Cang Turtle, while the Earth Dragon Demon King bows and proceeds to his own cave residence.

During the soul injection in the Beast Communication Tower, the Earth Dragon Demon King is not needed; instead, he might as well remain directly in his cave residence.

In this way, when the Divine Soul breaks through, he can also attempt a Nascent Soul breakthrough to Tier Five.

As the Earth Dragon Demon King disappears into the distance, Ye Jingcheng exchanges glances with Ye Xuefan before entering the Turtle Ancestor’s Grotto Heaven.

Within the Grotto Heaven, a profoundly deep and enormous black tower had been waiting for Ye Jingcheng for quite some time.

This black tower is so vast and somewhat indistinct that Ye Jingcheng enhances his spiritual eye and still cannot see it clearly, as if the tower were not of this world, unfathomable and mysterious.

Ye Jingcheng wishes to continue examining further, but his eyes suddenly experience intense pain.

Even the Star Illusion Eye has no qualification to view the complete outline of the Beast Communication Tower.

Ye Jingcheng dares not harbor any wild fantasies and strides into the tower.

Inside the tower, the ten thousand beasts spirit shadow floats around, and as Ye Jingcheng enters, the beasts seemingly transform into ten thousand beasts, a million beasts in an instant.

They rampage, fight, roar…

Heart-shaking roars resound in Ye Jingcheng’s mind incessantly.

Moreover, at this moment, there are ten beast shadows that most shock Ye Jingcheng, guarding the Beast Communication Tower like ten true spirits.

Yet Ye Jingcheng still cannot see clearly.

Instead, he has a sense of illusion that these ten beast shadows are observing him.

Boom!

Before Ye Jingcheng can ponder further, the next moment, all the beast spirit shadows rush toward him.

Pain!

Unimaginable intense pain!

Despite Ye Jingcheng having broken through to the Golden Core and cultivated to the second layer of the Profound Desolate Dominator Body Secret Manual, he now feels as if his Divine Soul is being torn apart, the pain making him grit his teeth.

This inflation of the Beast Communication Pattern being penetrated far surpasses the feeling during the second soul injection.

Ye Jingcheng even feels as if his Beast Communication Pattern seems to have fractured.

Fortunately, at this moment, the Earth Dragon Demon King suddenly emanates a terrifying suction force, drawing countless Divine Soul Power toward him.

Only then does Ye Jingcheng feel some relief, clearly aware that without a powerful soul acting as a tether during the soul injection, he might have had to endure even more intense pain.

The Beast Communication Pattern visibly broadens, and Ye Jingcheng can freely draw upon the soul power.

Besides the Earth Dragon Demon King’s absorption, he also feels that the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon, Red Flame Fox Golden Scale Beast, and other spirit beasts are absorbing, and to his surprise, the Golden Scale Beast absorbs at a pace not inferior to the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon and the Red Flame Fox.

Evidently, the Golden Scale Beast is particularly eager for these benefits.

Even now, in the process of breaking through to Tier Four, it doesn’t forget the benefits on Ye Jingcheng’s side.

Of course, besides Ye Jingcheng’s five lifebound spirit beasts and Wood Demon Stone Spirit, such as the Roc Fish and White Eyebrow Cyan Wolf-headed Turtle, they are all absorbing.

Only, they were cut off by Ye Jingcheng.

Upon being cut off, the other spirit beasts and Wood Demon Stone Spirit no longer attempt, but that Double-headed Turtle Demon King persistently tries to connect as if single-mindedly.

After being warned by Ye Jingcheng with a soul contract, he reluctantly gives up his attempts.

At this point, it’s impossible for him to let these less important spirit beasts affect the Earth Dragon Demon King’s breakthrough.

Soon, the immense soul power starts to deplete; the Earth Dragon Demon King no longer absorbs fervently as before, instead behaving more like the Golden Falcon and Five-Colored Cloud Deer, somewhat passive.

Ye Jingcheng estimates that the Earth Dragon Demon King’s Divine Soul is about to break through, unable to bear more.

After all, when hunting demon beasts in the East Sea, the Ye Family harvested far more than initially anticipated, especially targeting several major Demon King souls.

Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng hesitates for a moment and then lifts the restriction on Divine Soul Power absorption, allowing a group of spirit beasts to absorb some, naturally favoring Stone Spirit Grotto Heaven and Peach Wood Demon, Malachite Stone Spirit somewhat.
