Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Previously, it was because the Desert Sea couldn’t do without him, but now that Ye Xuefan has broken through, even if Ye Jingcheng isn’t around, it won’t be too much of a problem.

Moreover, several Great Demon Kings have to return to the Taihang Mountain Range.

Now, having been in the Desert Sea for two years, the major demons here are basically not a big problem, with a few already under Blood Contract, and the remaining ones are not too antagonistic towards the Ye Family.

After all, the Ye Family is now treating them with good food and drinks.

Occasionally, they even offer them some Demon-enticing Grass to nourish their bodies.

With the intimidation of the Demon Kings, the likelihood of issues arising is not high.

Ye Jingcheng plans to keep the Double-headed Turtle Demon King here to bond with Ye Xuefan.

The Double-headed Turtle Demon King has tasted the Ye Family’s Spirit Pills and has become dependent on them. Now tempted by the power of Soul Injection, it is very likely to agree to contract with Ye Xuefan.

Moreover, the Double-headed Turtle’s nature is quite gentle, much more so than the Three-eyed Demon King and the Thunder Roc Demon King, who have more complex thoughts, even if it has two brains.

Thus, the Double-headed Turtle Demon King is the most suitable for Ye Xuefan to communicate with beasts and facilitate his Golden Core formation.

Of course, Ye Jingcheng won’t immediately release the Soul Contract with the Double-headed Turtle Demon King.

“Fourth Uncle, these are the Black Water Pill and Profound Wood Pill, the favorite Spirit Pills of the Double-headed Turtle Demon King, both are Tier Three High-Grade Spirit Pills. Please feed them to the Double-headed Turtle occasionally!” Ye Jingcheng took out a Jade Bottle.

“Alright!” Ye Xuefan did not refuse and directly took it.

Once the Earth Dragon Demon King breaks through, it will take up a significant portion of Ye Jingcheng’s Beast Communication Pattern, leaving little attention for the Double-headed Turtle.

Besides, he primarily cultivates Water Attribute Cultivation Techniques and has previously communicated with a Blue Water Whale Great Demon.

Contracting with the Double-headed Turtle would indeed be beneficial for him.

“This is a set of Aura Concealment Array Discs!” Ye Xuefan received the Spirit Pills and also took out a set of Array Discs.

The Array Discs were personally refined by Ye Xuefan, not particularly advanced, only at the Tier Three Top-Grade level.

But the advantage is that they were refined by Ye Xuefan himself, making them more reliable and trustworthy.

The full name of the Array is the Profound Sect Secret Concealment Array, featuring Heavy Concealment and Illusion, and it effectively suppresses the fluctuations of the Teleportation Array.

“Thank you, Fourth Uncle!” Ye Jingcheng also cupped his hands.

With the Flying Puppet Skill and this Array, Ye Jingcheng felt somewhat assured.

“By the way, Jingcheng, keep a close watch on the Qinghe Sect and the Cyan Spirit Trading Association this time. They might resort to extraordinary means, so remember not to act impulsively!” Ye Xuefan added lastly.

This time, with the Eastern Domain’s failure, the Cyan Cloud Sea Domain has fallen, and significant losses occurred in the Celestial Horse Sea Domain.

The East Heaven Sect, Sea-controlling Sect, Celestial Water Sect, and Haoyang Daoist Temple, four Nascent Soul powers, are sure to pressure the Cyan Spirit Trading Association and the Qinghe Sect’s Bai Family.

After all, it’s the Qinghe Sect and the Cyan Spirit Trading Association, along with the Bai Family, that triggered the Beast Tide.

The former was refining the Infinite Profound River Array in the sea domain, while the latter was seizing the Nine Curves Spirit Ginseng in the sea domain.

Coupled with the collusion issues spread by the Taiyi Sect, even the Penglai Immortal Sect might target the Qinghe Sect.

And these three will naturally shift the blame to the Beast Desolate Wasteland. Even if they know the Ye Family is mere rumor, they will still try to pin a baseless accusation on the Ye Family.

What worries Ye Xuefan the most is that Ye Jingcheng might not be able to let go of Ye Jingyun and others.

“Rest assured, Fourth Uncle, Jingcheng understands!” Ye Jingcheng nodded, his eyes also revealing some heaviness.

He naturally felt reluctant, but the Ye Family indeed has no choice.

His trip to the Yan Kingdom was primarily to protect the Teleportation Array, and secondarily to try to protect other Ye Family members.

The Earth Dragon Demon King has yet to break through, and the Teleportation Array must remain undiscovered.

If the Teleportation Array falls, even if the Ye Family destroys the teleportation array in the Desert Sea, it would be cutting off its own path, as the Desert Sea also has limitations, and the Ye Family’s resource integration would undoubtedly weaken.

The Desert Sea indeed has abundant resources, but its ability to nurture beast meat is lacking, and despite having many minerals, it has few Spirit Medicines.

While it might not be apparent in the short term, over time, its limitations will become increasingly evident.

This is why, despite the abundance of Magical Artifacts in the Desert Sea, there are few breakthroughs to the Purple Mansion and Golden Core levels.

Seeing Ye Jingcheng nod, Ye Xuefan felt relieved.

After this, the two didn’t continue discussing profound topics. Instead, Ye Jingcheng began explaining the details of breaking through to the Golden Core.

Although Ye Jingcheng’s Experience Jade Talisman on Golden Core formation had already been given to the family.

But at this moment, he had a few more insights.

They might not necessarily be useful, but they can certainly serve as a reference.

The only pity was that Ye Xuefan’s breakthrough to the Purple Mansion occurred after the Five Elements Celestial Mansion period, otherwise, the odds of breaking through to the Golden Core would have been significantly higher.

After a while, Ye Jingcheng left.

Before leaving, Ye Jingcheng returned to his cave abode, glanced at Qingnian and Qing Feng, and placed two Jade Pendants beside the little ones.

Then, Ye Jingcheng quietly withdrew, and in the next cave abode, he collected the Three-eyed Demon King, Mammoth Demon King, and Thunder Roc Demon King.

At the level of the Demon Kings, they can almost all absorb Spiritual Energy.

They naturally eyed this Tier Five Spiritual Vein as well.

But at this moment, Ye Jingcheng certainly couldn’t let them continue absorbing it here.

After collecting the three Demon Kings, the Celestial Phoenix Oasis was also missing three beastly mights.

He also looked towards the three Beast Valleys.

These three Beast Valleys housed the Thunder Roc Race, Three-Eyed Demon Roc Race, and the Mammoth Race.

Even Ye Xuefan’s Divine Sense spread out, clearly showing his slight anxiety.

However, their worries proved unnecessary, as these Great Demons had no intention of causing trouble.

Ye Jingcheng let out a long breath and descended to the lakebed where the Teleportation Array was hidden.

The one guarding the Teleportation Array was none other than Ye Xingyu.

“Uncle Xingyu, why is it you guarding here!” Ye Jingcheng was a bit surprised.

“I just broke through to Foundation Establishment Peak, and even with Purple Mansion Jade Liquid, I have no assurance. The stipend for guarding the Teleportation Array is quite good, so I decided to study the Refining Insights here!” Ye Xingyu replied with a smile.

But Ye Jingcheng could easily see that Ye Xingyu had other thoughts.

“Uncle Xingyu…” Ye Jingcheng inquired further.

“Jingcheng, there is indeed another matter!” Seeing that Ye Jingcheng seemed to notice, Ye Xingyu got straight to the point.

“Jingcheng, this is White Willow Dew I obtained in the Poplar Oasis, it’s Tier Three Spirit Wine. There’s not much of it, so I didn’t hand it over to the family. I’d like you to distribute it to Brother Qun, Jingyu, and Jing Yun!”

“I, Xingyu, toast them!” Ye Xingyu declared.

He poured himself a glass and drank it all in one gulp.

His spirits were high as clouds.

“Uncle Xingyu, I will definitely deliver it, but can I not have a drink myself!” Ye Jingcheng’s eyes were full of respect, feeling touched by such an elder, and also somewhat conflicted.

But this is what it means to be a cultivator, sometimes reason prevents them from acting on certain desires.

“Of course, you can, help me toast them a few more times!” Ye Xingyu quickly said, rubbing his head as if punishing himself for his oversight.

Besides the wine, Ye Xingyu handed Ye Jingli a Refining Insights Jade Talisman, gave Ye Jingyun a Pill Furnace, and Ye Xingqun a raincoat.

“The Bamboo Forest in the rain is when Brother Qun loves going out to watch his Spirit Insects!” It seemed he saw Ye Jingcheng’s confusion, and Ye Xingyu explained.

After speaking, he thoughtfully sipped the now empty cup.

As if taking another sip of the Tier Three White Willow Dew.

“This wine is good, but it’s too strong and spicy, unlike Cyan Bamboo Wine that has Cyan Bamboo Snake in it!” Ye Xingyu finally commented.

“Indeed, when I head to Lingyun Peak, I will have Uncle Xingqun make several pots, wait for the spring bamboo shoots to rise, and rain to fall in the Bamboo Forest, and drink until merry!” Ye Jingcheng responded heartily.

The two chatted a while longer, and then Ye Jingcheng activated the Teleportation Array, heading towards the Yan Kingdom.

As the Spiritual Light of the Teleportation Array shone, Ye Jingcheng distinctly saw Ye Xingyu sip the empty cup again.

Muttering to himself:

“If there’s more White Willow Dew at Tier Three, it must be repaid tenfold, a hundredfold with Cyan Bamboo Wine…”

“It must be repaid…”
