Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Qinghe Sect, Yanqing Commandery, Cyan River Peak.

The mountains stretch and soar higher than one another, with rolling white clouds flowing like rivers through the mountain waist.

Outside the mountains, there is also a grand Yanqing River, winding downwards, becoming the largest moat of Cyan River Peak.

The sect gate of Qinghe Sect is precisely situated on Cyan River Peak.

At this moment, inside the ancestral hall of the sect, a cultivator stumbled hurriedly towards the sect’s main hall.

”Sect Leader, something terrible has happened!” The Sect Leader of Qinghe Sect is known as Master Qingxi.

He is also one of the Nascent Soul seeds, having spent years cultivating and nurturing his character within the sect.

Upon seeing the disciple’s panic, he immediately frowned.

”Why such panic?”

”Reporting to Sect Leader-Grandmaster, the Soul Talismans of Ancestor Xi Wang, Ancestor Yunmu, and even Grandmaster Zheng have unexpectedly shattered!” The answering disciple could barely speak coherently at this point.

It’s known that during the last Beast Tide, only one Golden Core cultivator from Qinghe Sect fell when Celestial Horse Pass was overrun.

This time, suddenly losing three indicates a major event has occurred within the sect.

Especially since Master Xi Wang is also one of the Nascent Soul seeds of Qinghe Sect.

”Impossible, with Junior Brother Xi Wang’s strength, even if not among the strongest at the Golden Core Peak, no Golden Core cultivator of Tian Dao Sect could kill Junior Brother Xi Wang unless Tian Dao True Monarch took action!” Master Qingxi was visibly in disbelief.

Nonetheless, he knew that this disciple could not possibly be lying.

He flew out at once, landing inside the ancestral hall soon after.

He saw that inside the bright Soul Storage Altar, the Soul Talismans of Master Xi Wang, Master Yunmu, and others were indeed no longer there.

”Ten Thousand Miles Book!” Master Qingxi did not dare delay, immediately using the Ten Thousand Miles Book.

He cast several Spirit Skills, and the scroll shone brightly, beginning to turn, transmitting messages as well.

Master Qingxi still felt something was not right.

He then activated the Mountain Protection Array of Cyan River Peak, and from the moat, a Water Shark Spirit Shadow emerged.

In Master Qingxi’s view, it was very likely that the Taiyi Sect and Tian Dao Sect even possibly the Medicine King Valley, had joined forces. His responsibility now was to defend Yanqing Commandery and wait for Ancestor Qinghe and Ancestor Beihai to return.

...

Taiqing Commandery, before the Cyan River, True Monarch Zi Ming and Fairy Linghong were still in the riverside pavilion, admiring the magnificent Cyan River.

The Cyan River begins from numerous streams deep within the Taihang Mountain Range, converging at Taiqing Commandery, with its widest and most turbulent stretch within Yanhui Commandery.

As if thousands of fortunes converged in one place, thus the Qinghe Sect was directly named after it.

The entire Cyan River flows over a vast area, winding around to finally pour into the East Sea.

During its course, it flows through several Cultivation Kingdoms.

And at the moment True Monarch Zi Ming and Fairy Linghong were having tea, they saw in the distance a terrifying aura suddenly surging forth.

Soon, Ancestor Beihai’s figure appeared.

Ancestor Beihai was enveloped in Spiritual Light, exuding a terrifying aura, as if ready to fight at the slightest disagreement.

”Zi Ming, you little thief of the Taiyi Sect, such audacity to kill my Nephew Xi Wang, this time, our two sects shall fight to the bitter end!” Ancestor Beihai was exceedingly angry, spitting out his Lifebound Magical Treasure Celestial River Bead, about to form a Water Dragon to smash towards Sikong Ziming.

”Old Beihai, attacking me and my wife without discerning right from wrong, isn’t that provoking discord between our two sects?” Sikong Ziming did not make a move, but Fairy Linghong beside him took out a Water-Splitting Banner, dispersing the Water Dragon formed by the Celestial River Bead.

”Old Beihai, are you sure you want to fight, given that the day for the Earth Immortal Realm to open is in thirty years?”

”So what if the Earth Immortal Realm opens? Today you’ve killed my junior, this matter shall never rest!” Ancestor Beihai shouted again.

”Old Beihai, have you gone senile? Junior Xi Wang was confronting, intending to invade Tian Dao Sect in Celestial Arrival Commandery and was killed by Tian Dao Sect. Why do you come here to trouble Taiyi Sect?”

”Do you think Taiyi Sect or Medicine King Valley can be easily bullied?” Sikong Ziming spoke again.

However, even Sikong Ziming himself was also surprised at the moment.

To be honest, he hadn’t expected that the one from Qinghe Sect to fall was Master Xi Wang.

What surprised him even more was that the Ye Family had indeed killed Master Xi Wang.

With this, the combat power of the Ye Family might be even stronger than he had anticipated.

Sikong Ziming himself could not help but feel a bit apprehensive.

He hoped the Ye Family was strong, but not too strong.

”My Nephew Xi Wang was supposed to attend a ceremony by invitation, yet he fell in your Taichang Commandery. How do you explain this!” Ancestor Beihai spoke again, and seemed ready to start another fight at any moment.

”Beihai the Daoist, if everyone acts like you, sending disciples to my sect to die, does that mean it’s all my disciples’ fault? Can anyone engage in a life-and-death struggle with me?”

”You!” Ancestor Beihai almost spat out blood from anger at these words.

Just as he was about to make a move, he noticed that Sikong Ziming and Fairy Linghong had already activated the array, indicating a strong likelihood of a fight.

If there was no array, his middle stage of Nascent Soul would naturally have a high chance of winning against two early stage Nascent Souls, but the opponents also had an array, and he truly dared not kill Fairy Linghong.

”I and my beloved wife are right here. My Taiyi Sect has no one else who could kill Master Xi Wang, so, Beihai, if you want to slander my Taiyi Sect, please find a better excuse!” Sikong Ziming glanced coldly with contempt, showing a mocking expression.

This immediately made Ancestor Beihai’s face turn red. No matter how much tolerance he had, he couldn’t stay calm at this moment.

The Qinghe Sect’s Golden Core cultivators were few, and this time, three had directly perished.

Not to mention the loss, but now also being mocked by Sikong Ziming of the Taiyi Sect.

”Since it’s not your Taiyi Sect, then it must be the Beast Desolate Wasteland. My Qinghe Sect will thoroughly investigate the Taihang Commandery and all major families!” Ancestor Beihai spoke again, his words filled with an undeniable tone.

”Beihai the Daoist, I’ll repeat once more, I was here admiring the river with my beloved wife and having amicable communication with Tian Dao Daoist. As for whether Master Xi Wang committed suicide or was murdered, and who did it, I am completely unaware. Master Zitian of my Taiyi Sect is at Jade Dragon Valley, and True Master San Yuan is at Taichang Mountain!”

”Moreover, you keep switching between accusing my Taiyi Sect and the Beast Desolate Wasteland. Beihai, have you possibly erred in your cultivation?”

”If you want to fight, then let’s fight. My Taiyi Sect is backed by the Medicine King Valley, we are not afraid of getting injured!”

”Today, Beihai, you must realize, whether there’s a Beast Desolate Wasteland or not, what right do you have to search my Taiyi Sect?” After saying this, Sikong Ziming leapt into the sky, reaching the same height as Ancestor Beihai, with the array flashing spiritual light on him, and a Purple Extreme Sword also flew into the void.

It likewise held the potential to cut through mountains and rivers with a single strike.

After such exchanges, Ancestor Beihai’s eyes were filled with hatred.

Though in his heart he knew that either the Ye Family and Beast Desolate Wasteland or the Taiyi Sect had done it.

But he had no evidence, and most crucially, in the Taichang Commandery, all the Spirit Shadows would likely have been erased. He couldn’t even trace them back if he wanted to.

In today’s matter, he could only swallow his anger.

Upon reaching the Nascent Soul stage, cultivators’ secret techniques became inscrutably mysterious. It was easy to inflict serious wounds on a Nascent Soul, but exceedingly difficult to kill.

As Sikong Ziming said, he was the son-in-law of Medicine King Valley, even if injured, he could recover with spirit medicine.

But if he got injured, it might affect Qinghe Sect’s future plans in the Earth Immortal Realm.

In the Eastern Domain, for a Nascent Soul power to develop well, it must gain considerable rewards in the Earth Immortal Realm.

Hundreds of years ago, Taiyi Sect made a minor mistake in the Earth Immortal Realm, leading to Ancestor Zi Ji being critically injured and perishing, causing Taiyi Sect’s decline over several centuries.

”The events of today, if I find evidence connecting to the Beast Desolate Wasteland or your Taiyi Sect, even if True Monarch Bai Yao from Medicine King Valley comes, I will still slay you!” Ancestor Beihai flung his sleeves and left abruptly.

Vanishing without a trace.

...

Similar to what happened by the Cyan River, Celestial Arrival Commandery was even more intense at this moment.

Ancestor Qinghe’s body enlarged several times, clearly using a secret technique and taking out several magical treasures, sparkling with spiritual light, shaking the heavens and earth.

And opposite him, Tian Dao True Monarch stood holding his saber, matching the momentum without the slightest weakness.

Each slash he made created overwhelming saber might.

Just as he performed the third slash, Ancestor Qinghe’s expression changed dramatically.

”Has your lifespan recovered?” Ancestor Qinghe couldn’t help but be extremely puzzled.

”Whether this old man’s lifespan has recovered or not, why don’t you wait for my Life-Burning Blade Technique!” Tian Dao True Monarch spoke calmly.

With that, he raised his hand once more, and the already terrifying spiritual saber, after being infused with mysterious True Essence, expanded several times more.

The terrifying sword intent roared forth like tidal waves, rolling in with a massive momentum.

Even Ancestor Qinghe felt his hairs standing on end at that moment.

”Tian Dao the Daoist, today’s matter isn’t over. You plotted to kill our Qinghe Sect’s Golden Core cultivators, and sooner or later we’ll reclaim everything!” Ancestor Qinghe waved his sleeves, used a secret technique, and fled away.

Tian Dao True Monarch’s lifespan was already more than he imagined, so he naturally wouldn’t linger in further entanglement.

Otherwise, if Tian Dao True Monarch exchanged life for life, only he would suffer.

After all, the other party already had limited days left.

With Ancestor Qinghe’s retreat, the other Qinghe Sect cultivators also withdrew one after another.

Master Mo Dao approached, looking at Tian Dao True Monarch, and couldn’t help but transmit:

”Tian Dao Master Uncle, the Ye Family is truly terrifying!”
