Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Inside the grotto heaven, the White-Browed Cyan Wolf opened its eyes, shooting out a beam of cyan light.

It also transformed into a massive gang wind over thirty feet long.

This gang wind continued to swirl up sand and rock, growing larger and more violent. Even from afar, Ye Jingcheng could feel a terrifying pull, and the array in the Spirit Medicine Garden within the grotto heaven began to flicker slightly.

Ye Jingcheng was startled by this, quickly casting spells to form a golden wall to block the gang wind.

The spirit beasts within the grotto heaven were also alarmed.

This was exactly the Eye of the Hurricane once unleashed by the Celestial Cyan Demon Emperor over miles.

It’s important to know that the Celestial Cyan Demon Emperor’s Nascent Soul combat power in that instance had put many Nascent Souls on the Taiyi Sect’s side in a difficult position, and it had taken a great deal of effort from several people to finally block the Eye of the Hurricane.

While the Eye of the Hurricane might not seem frightening at first glance, like a snowball, it grows larger as it rolls. Theoretically, if controlled well enough, even a Demon King at the early stage of the Golden Core might reach a level that frightens those at the peak of the Golden Core.

Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng began to form a hand seal, and soon a Mountain-Opening Cloud Shield started to gather in his hand.

This spell might only be a second or third tier, but with Ye Jingcheng at the middle stage of the Golden Core casting it, its strength was at least that of a tier three high-grade, not something a late-stage Purple Mansion could easily break.

As the Mountain-Opening Cloud Shield spell entered the gang wind, a fearsome clanging sound resounded, and the golden cloud shield was instantly torn apart, turning into specks of spiritual light, dissipating into the storm before vanishing.

”Not bad, but you can stop now!” Ye Jingcheng waved repeatedly, signaling the White-Browed Cyan Wolf to halt.

His grotto heaven could not withstand the full destruction of the Eye of the Hurricane.

If it grew any larger, many of his arrays would be in danger.

”Yes, Master!” the White-Browed Cyan Wolf nodded quickly, then howled skyward, emitting cyan light to calm the storm, then closed its eyes, reverting to its usual appearance.

Of course, any trace of youthful cuteness in the young cyan wolf had completely vanished in the White-Browed Cyan Wolf at this point, as it now appeared robustly terrifying, with muscles bulging across its body.

Especially its pair of compelling, dark green eyes.

Ye Jingcheng couldn’t help but think of the Qing Feng Demon King from the Cyan Wind Grassland, which was also a Wolf King. He wondered if the White-Browed Cyan Wolf could defeat it now.

”Let’s see your full-speed efforts!” Upon seeing the White-Browed Cyan Wolf calm the storm with a beam of cyan light, Ye Jingcheng spoke again.

The White-Browed Cyan Wolf leaped into the air upon hearing this, transforming into a cyan light as it swiftly streaked away.

Its speed was terrifyingly fast, and Ye Jingcheng could scarcely catch a glimpse of countless cyan halos at its feet, leaving nothing but an afterimage as it vanished ahead.

Indeed, it felt like coming and going with the wind.

If not for relying on his divine sense, Ye Jingcheng would hardly be able to see the shadow of the White-Browed Cyan Wolf with just his eye power.

”Its speed should be about the same as that of the Golden Falcon, but the Golden Falcon excels in diving faster,” Ye Jingcheng mused aloud.

He was utterly satisfied with the speed of the White-Browed Cyan Wolf.

This meant his odds of winning in the Earth Immortal Realm were even greater.

With this in mind, Ye Jingcheng took out a large quantity of spirit pills, rewarding two spirit beasts, and while the spirit beasts consumed the pills, Ye Jingcheng patted their heads, channeling treasure light.

In the present day, Ye Jingcheng of course lacked the time to grant treasure light daily, but he now made an effort to allow these spirit beasts to absorb more treasure light, enhancing their usage of the spirit pills, and thereby expedite further breakthroughs.

With ample spirit pills and treasure light, both the Roc Fish and White-Browed Cyan Wolf were beaming with joy, eyes slightly squinted, enjoying the rare delight.

Unlike other spirit beasts, which had always stayed by Ye Jingcheng’s side, these two had actually spent some time with other members of the Ye Family.

So, they cherished this moment all the more.

If one looked closely, one could see their gazes consistently falling upon the Spirit Lake.

As the Golden Scale Beast and Crimson Flame Fox pursued the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon, they likewise strived to catch up.

They weren’t far from reaching the middle stage of the Golden Core, and with the spirit pills, they believed they would soon break through, finally catching up with the other spirit beasts.

”Roar!” The Golden Scale Beast growled, but it wanted not only spirit pills; it also wanted the White-Browed Cyan Wolf as its sparring partner.

The provocativeness in its gaze was intense.

The White-Browed Cyan Wolf excelled in speed, as did the Crimson Flame Fox and Jade Qilin Flood Dragon.

To it, if it could deal with the White-Browed Cyan Wolf, naturally, it could also deal with the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon and the Crimson Flame Fox.

The White-Browed Cyan Wolf agreed without hesitation, as wolf-type spirit beasts were inherently combative, and while there used to be a gap in cultivation and bloodline, it now had confidence in itself.

Ye Jingcheng naturally wouldn’t stop the sparring amongst the spirit beasts.

After all, not only could his treasure light heal wounds, but the Six-Colored Cloud Deer’s Wood Transformation Divine Light could also. With the gravity reinforcement within the Celestial Spirit Body Refining Array, the destruction to the grotto heaven was also limited.

The spirit beasts could spar extensively to enhance their magical combat experience.

As a group of spirit beasts entered the Celestial Spirit Array.

Ye Jingcheng was also left with some free time, and the Crimson Flame Fox chirped, evidently inquiring if Ye Jingcheng planned to refine any spirit pills.

Ye Jingcheng shook his head. Over the past five years, he had completed the alchemy tasks at Xiaoshan Market and hadn’t taken on any more. Naturally, he didn’t need to refine any more pills, not to mention he had previously overproduced, depleting many spirit medicines.

Now, even if he wanted to refine, he could only craft some low-tier spirit medicines.

And refining low-tier spirit medicines held no significance. Rather, his cultivation was what he should focus on next, as he was preparing for the Earth Immortal Realm.

Ye Jingcheng then checked the Jade Ring Rat’s progress, and over the five years, its advancement was not weak, but breaking through to tier three within fifteen years still posed some difficulty.

Ye Jingcheng left a few more spirit pills before exiting the grotto heaven to check in on the family’s current situation.

Upon hearing news from the Celestial Departure Grassland, Ye Jingcheng frowned. The situation indeed seemed strange, but thankfully, over the past five years, signs of demon beasts emerging had diminished.

Ye Qingfeng and Ye Qingnian remained in Yuanling Oasis, not taking any risks.

And upon seeing that the family had received the heritage of the Wilderness Suppression and had sent over a tier four battle array, Ye Jingcheng couldn’t help but smile.

He now had seven spirit beasts with Demon King-level combat power, and even if they formed a battle array, two spirit beasts could still assist on the side.

As for other affairs, there were no significant changes concerning the family, and Chu Yanqing’s breakthrough was likely imminent within a few years.

Ye Jingcheng didn’t return to the Desert Sea; for him, Chu Yanqing’s breakthrough was a certainty, but what lay ahead in the Earth Immortal Realm required more meticulous preparation.

He didn’t have time to wait any longer.

On that day, Ye Jingcheng returned to the grotto heaven and once again landed on the mountain peak.

Ye Jingcheng took out the Primordial Demon Jade Bed and directly sat cross-legged on it. As the penetrating cold Qi seeped into his body, his mind and spirit became increasingly tranquil.

To maintain high efficiency in cultivation, Ye Jingcheng even deliberately brewed a pot of Mingxin Tea.

When the spirit tea settled in his stomach, Ye Jingcheng’s thoughts became more active.

The Five Spirits True Manual within his body also began to operate involuntarily.

If one looked closely, they would see that the Beast Communication Pattern within Ye Jingcheng’s body constantly emitted pure True Essence.

Lately, the spirit beasts had advanced and broken through, consequently the rebounding True Essence had become more refined, naturally speeding up the cultivation process considerably.

At this moment, he was quite confident in breaking through to the late stage of Golden Core within fifteen years.

Although time was somewhat tight, he would certainly need to consume a lot of spirit pills, but for the Earth Immortal Realm, some shallowness in cultivation was definitely worth it.

After all, there were quite a few Nascent Souls in the Earth Immortal Realm, and Ye Jingcheng could not expect only to encounter Golden Cores, nor could he completely rely on the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor. Only by breaking through to the late stage of Golden Core and cultivating the Five-Finger Divine Thunder would it be most secure.

Besides, he had refined so many spirit pills before, not just to let them gather dust in the storage bag.

Speaking of which, Ye Jingcheng took out a Tier Four Gold Attribute Spirit Pill.

Although the Five Spirits True Manual did not require the balance among the Five Phases like the Five Phase Celestial Essence Scripture, in Ye Jingcheng’s subconscious, he still felt it was better to keep the Five Elements balanced.

At this moment, the Earth Phase within his body was the strongest, the Water Phase and Fire Phase followed, while the Gold Phase and Wood Phase were the weakest. Therefore, the spirit pills he was prepared to consume focused primarily on Gold and Wood.

As a spirit pill entered his mouth, a dense surge of True Essence unfolded, and Ye Jingcheng quickly immersed himself in cultivation.

...

In the cultivation world, time passes without notice, and another two years went by in the Desert Sea.

Celestial Phoenix Oasis remained as it was several years ago, with an incredibly unsettling aura emerging above the Desert Sea, and Spiritual Energy also streamed towards the mountain peak.

There, Chu Yanqing was sitting on a Tier Four Primordial Demon Crystal Jade Bed, her brow furrowed intensely.

At this moment, she did not expect her Heart Demon to arrive so swiftly, appearing in her mind even before she could condense her Golden Core.

Tombstones, all tombstones.

She looked around, surrounded by desolate tombstones.

In the distance, the mountains overlapped with her memories—she knew this was Xianyun Mountain.

She had grown up here since childhood, and nobody was more familiar with it than she.

But the vast array of tombstones chilled her heart, causing a pang of distress.

A distance from the tombstones were two figures—an old man and a child.

The old man was engraving a new tombstone, while the child acted as his assistant nearby.

”The mountain endures, the river flows ceaselessly, how can grievances ever be forgotten?” the old man said as he engraved.

Accompanied by the clang of the chisel on stone, it sounded both passionate and mournful.

”The mountain endures, the river flows ceaselessly, how can grievances ever be forgotten!” The child echoed in a tender voice.

Chu Yanqing involuntarily moved forward, only to be jolted by the sight.

The old man unmistakably resembled her father, and the child beside him bore some resemblance to her.

It seemed as though they noticed Chu Yanqing’s arrival:

”Sure enough, women are unreliable; familial grievances and national hate, forgotten so easily!”

”Do you know that the Ye Family also destroyed our Chu Family’s Spirit Mountain, seized our Spirit Medicine, and exterminated our Chu Family members!” The old man spoke sadly, his chisel-wielding hand was injured, blood flowing profusely.

The child stared at her intently, and at that moment, the vision of the Ye Family occupying the Chu Family’s Spirit Mountain and massacring the Chu Family members surfaced in her mind.

”No... no!”

Chu Yanqing felt a splitting headache, as if something within her was about to shatter.

However, at that moment, a cold light permeated her body.

It allowed her a bit of clarity.

It was the effect of the Primordial Demon Crystal Jade Bed and the Gold Condensing Pill.

Upon looking at the two figures again, they felt full of flaws.

The Heart Demon was, after all, just a Heart Demon.

”Father never said that women are inferior to men. That is firstly, I have already avenged the Chu Family’s grievances. That is secondly, it can no longer be discerned who was right or wrong among the ancestors of the Chu and Ye families, but now the Chu Family has become an affiliated clan to the Ye Family, and the legacy has continued. That is thirdly. You, this Heart Demon, are weak!” Chu Yanqing’s eyes had some redness, but she spoke calmly.

She also watched the figures in front of her continue chiseling the tombstones, occasionally injuring themselves, and even the child being knocked into a pool of blood.

”You are heartless, hopelessly wasting the Chu Family’s efforts of nearly seventy years in training you!”

Chu Yanqing remained calm, staying true to herself.

When she opened her eyes again, she found that a Golden Core had already condensed within her.

And the condensed Golden Core was indeed an Upper Grade Golden Core.

Chu Yanqing herself was a Spirit Body, her cultivation technique was not lacking, and she had the assistance of the Ye Family’s spirit pills. Now she had finally condensed her Golden Core.

In the sky, thunderclouds surged, and Chu Yanqing stepped out of the cave dwelling, landing on the Spirit Mountain designated by the Ye Family for Crossing the Tribulation.

The array was already set up above, and the family had two Golden Core cultivators on guard.

Although Ye Jingcheng was not present, at this moment the Ye Family still treated her as one of their own, and everyone was ready.

Beside her, she saw Chu Yanliu and Ye Qingnian, Ye Qingfeng.

The group had all arrived at the Celestial Phoenix Oasis.

Her path was not solitary!
