Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Taihang Commandery, Lingyun Peak.

The swirling mist grows thicker, making the entire Lingyun Peak even more mysterious.

Over the years, the Ye Family has strengthened the Spirit Vein of Lingyun Peak, now reaching the level of Tier Four Lower, enough to support several Golden Core Cultivators’ cultivation under normal circumstances.

The dense Spiritual Energy has further nurtured the Cyan Jade Lotus within the Spirit Lake, its leaves now resembling emeralds adorning the lake.

Two Spirit Talismans pass through the mist, entering the lake’s depths.

No cultivators appear, only two Flood Dragons emerge, their heads shaking one round in the air.

They are the Blue Jade Flood Dragon and the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon.

At this moment, the two dragons gaze at Ye Jingyun, Ye Jingfeng, and Ye Jingli outside Lingyun Lake, then both dragons shake their heads.

”Understood!” Ye Jingyun takes out two Jade Bottles, retrieves two Spirit Pills, and sends them towards the two Spirit Flood Dragons.

Both dragons open their mouths and swallow the Spirit Pills, then they dive back into the lake.

”Fourth Brother is still in seclusion; let’s report this to Great Grandfather first!” Ye Jingyun turns around, holding the Clan Token.

They have received news from Ye Qingyan, supposedly sent by Liu Huan, likely involving the Cyan Cloud Sea.

So even if there aren’t other problems, they can first send a message to Ye Haicheng of the Cyan Cloud Sea Domain.

The Ye Family has started the Chenjing Jade plan in this time while using the Beast Tide to acquire Beast Souls.

They must be extremely cautious, not allowing any errors.

”This matter is simple, but how should we handle the Demon Refining Pillar?” Ye Jingfeng speaks from the side.

”In the capacity of newly appointed Array Cultivators, let Ye Qingshuang offer some guidance; she is from Illusion Peak and especially skilled in arrays!” Ye Jingyun suggests.

”Of course, Jingfeng, you cannot arrange the Demon Refining Pillar so blatantly; disguise it by building a shrine and subtly concealing it with other arrays. Make sure Ye Qingshuang does not become aware, whether knowingly or unknowingly!” Ye Jingyun cautions.

Ye Jingfeng nods in agreement.

The three begin their preparations according to Ye Qingshuang’s Tier Three Top-Grade Spiritual Ship speed, allowing them to estimate her arrival time.

For Ye Qingshuang, most Ye Clan members feel it’s somewhat regrettable.

With her Abnormal Spirit Root and Ye Family’s Beast Communication Pattern, regardless of future achievements, the Ye Family is confident it won’t be less than in the Sect.

Moreover, she joined the Taiyi Sect for the sake of the Ye Family.

...

Two days passed quietly, and a Spiritual Ship appeared on the mountain horizon.

Ye Qingshuang stands atop the Spiritual Ship, feeling a myriad of emotions.

She occasionally glanced at Lingyun Peak, then at Shangyuan County.

Finally, she steadied herself and looked towards Lingyun Peak.

In all the small worlds and major sects she visited after joining the Taiyi Sect, Lingyun Peak remains uniquely special to her.

”Uncle Nine, Uncle Jingfeng, Uncle Six!” Ye Qingshuang called as she descended in front of the mountain, seeing them waiting there.

”I have an urgent matter to report to Eleventh Uncle!” Ye Qingshuang pressed urgently.

She came to Lingyun Peak, rushing day and night to arrive within two days before Lingyun Peak.

”Jingcheng is still in seclusion, so as acting Patriarch, hand the Jade Talisman to me!” Ye Jingyun took out the acting Patriarch Token, symbolizing Lingyun Peak.

Seeing this, Ye Qingshuang nodded; Liu Huan told her to give it to the Ye Family Patriarch, and the acting Patriarch would suffice.

Ye Jingyun took the Jade Talisman, then said:

”Qingshuang, you’ve worked hard to deliver the Talisman from afar; now go up to Lingyun Peak and have some tea while Uncle Jingfeng and Uncle Six entertain you!”

Ye Qingshuang didn’t reject; she came to Lingyun Peak to see the family’s development over the years.

She hopes to find ways to assist her family.

Ye Jingyun studied the Jade Talisman closely, confirming Liu Huan’s suspicions regarding the Cyan Cloud Sea Domain; he composed himself.

According to the family plan, there is indeed slander involved, and exposure by the Ten Thousand Miles Mirror could result in problems.

He transmitted a message to Ye Jingfeng and Ye Jingli, then quickly returned to Lingyun Lake, seeking the most concentrated spot of Ye Family’s arrays to send further messages with the Clan Token.

...

On the mountain, countless paths and various pavilions and buildings have been developed.

Though the Ye Family focuses on developing the Desert Sea and Central Domain, due to the Ye Family’s birth policy, many cultivators are present on Lingyun Peak now.

Ye Qingshuang observed all of this, genuinely pleased.

”Uncle Six, Uncle Jingfeng, I’d like to visit the Clan Academy.” Ye Qingshuang suddenly suggested.

Ye Jingfeng and Ye Jingli naturally agreed.

In the Clan Academy, the Qing Generation teaches the Teng Generation’s Immortal Seedlings.

The explanation of Basic Magic may not be sophisticated, but it feels warmly familiar to Ye Qingshuang as she once listened here.

Finally, she paused before Ye Jingcheng’s portrait.

She touched her Spirit Beast Bag where two Frost Centipedes remained.

She recalls when Ye Jingcheng told her he worried she would forget the family after joining the sect.

However, Ye Qingshuang believes herself to be no saint, but she would never be ungrateful, nor betray her roots.

Born and raised here, even in the sect she held the family close in her heart.

As she spoke, Ye Qingshuang produced several Spirit Talismans and some Array Discs.

”Uncle Six, Uncle Jingfeng, these Array Discs and Spirit Talismans were crafted during my spare time. Though not superior, they represent my humble feelings; I hope the uncles won’t consider me stingy upon returning home!” Ye Qingshuang carefully chose her words, fearing the uncles might misunderstand like Ye Qingyan did.

”Of course, Qingshuang, I’m also an Array Master, how about we exchange ideas? I recently set up an Array, would you like to take a look?” Ye Jingfeng promptly suggested.

”Certainly!” Ye Qingshuang agreed with joy.

The three of them then arrived at a newly constructed ancestral temple of the Clan Academy.

The temple had many Array Patterns, indicating an abundance of arrays.

”This is my hall for testing the array knowledge of Ye Family Members.” Ye Jingfeng introduced.

Ye Qingshuang nodded and entered the grand hall.

Inside the hall was a Tier Three High-Grade Grand Array, which Ye Jingfeng had established using an Array Disc.

Ye Qingshuang was immensely delighted at the sight.

”Uncle Jingfeng’s array is indeed remarkable, this is a Compound Array...”

Ye Qingshuang began challenging the array, while Ye Jingfeng and Ye Jingli moved to the side of the hall.

In their hands was a Jade Disc showing the hidden forms of four Demon Refining Pillars.

Their expressions were somewhat solemn.

The structure of the Demon Refining Pillars was unique, and the Spirit Patterns on them were complex, resembling Sanskrit.

After a dozen breaths, the Spirit Light within the Demon Refining Pillars began flickering, releasing a Spirit Chain aimed at binding Ye Qingshuang.

However, what the Ye Family possessed was an incomplete array, and the Spirit Chain wasn’t strong, being easily severed by Ye Qingshuang’s two magics.

But for the two of them, this was already the worst outcome.

”Let the Ye Family Members challenge this array in the future!” Ye Jingli also spoke.

Previously, the Ye Family had no reference, but now they understood that Ye Qingshuang was cultivating Penglai’s Dao Embryo Method.

No wonder her cultivation had rapidly advanced recently, and her comprehension had improved significantly.

”Once Qingshuang is out, make sure not to mention this. Avoid revealing family secrets in the future, it’s best to take her to Shangyuan County; don’t let her stay at Lingyun Peak any longer!” Ye Jingfeng also spoke.

Their eyes were filled with helplessness.

But the Penglai’s methods were too insidious.

A technique for rapid cultivation; if spread, would result in an increasing number of Dao Embryos.

And when these Dao Embryos reach maturity, they can be harvested, using cultivators as great medicine!

It’s no wonder why the Penglai Immortal Sect takes little interest in the Eastern Domain Sects.

Nor do they worry about these cultivators rising up against them.

The two organized their thoughts and hid the array again; half an hour later, Ye Qingshuang spoke:

”Uncle Jingfeng, this array is very hidden, the entrance door itself is the Array Foundation!” Ye Qingshuang released a Cold Sword that struck the door heavily, instantly opening the array, as she walked out of the door.

”Uncle Jingfeng’s skill in arrays is indeed deeply hidden; my Array Disc might have amused Uncle Jingfeng!” Ye Qingshuang blushed.

She thought of the Array Disc she had given earlier.

However, fortunately, she had also given some Tier Three Spirit Talismans, which were useful to the family.

”Qingshuang has used up quite a bit; have some Spiritual Cuisine and drink some Spirit Tea, both are from our Spirit Mountain!” Ye Jingli, fearing he hadn’t hidden well, didn’t speak, Ye Jingfeng then invited Ye Qingshuang to his courtyard.

...

Cyan Cloud Sea Domain, Jade Cloud Islands.

Under the mountain gate of Cyan Cloud Sect, Ye Haicheng, Ye Haifei, Ye Xuefu, Ye Haige, and Ye Haisheng gathered again.

As the array activated, the cultivators displayed their Beast Communication Patterns.

The Earth Immortal Realm had been open for a while, and they confirmed that the Chenjing Race from the Chenjing Sea had sent several Chenjing Demon Emperors and Demon Kings there.

Along with the Zhang Family’s previous successful theft, it indicated that the Demon Saints of the Chenjing Race were likely asleep.

Once everyone gathered, Ye Haicheng spoke:

”There’s been some changes at Qinghe Sect; we need to adjust our plans slightly. The Light-Attracting Beast Tide on Celestial Cloud Islands, focus on planning for the Chenjing Jade, Hai Fei, you need to work with Uncle Xuefu, and if things go wrong, you can lead your Blue Jade Flood Dragon to Celestial Flood Dragon Sea!”

”The family will also stir the beast tide of Celestial Flood Dragon Sea!”

Since they learned the other party possesses Ten Thousand Miles Jade, Ye Haicheng naturally wouldn’t go to Celestial Cloud Islands.

But the necessary lead and cover cannot be neglected.

Otherwise, Ye Haisheng and his Chenjing would face immense pressure.

Ye Haifei and Ye Xuefu nodded repeatedly; the family’s Beast Tide plan was only half abandoned; fortunately, they still had plans in the Desert Sea, so there was no need to worry about a slight shortage in Soul Injection.

”Also, arrange some Demon-enticing Grass at the outer seas of the Chiyun Islands and the Jade Cloud Islands!” Ye Haicheng looked at Ye Haige.

Finally, he looked at Ye Haisheng.

This time, the heaviest task fell on Ye Haisheng.

His Chenjing had entered the Chenjing Sea many times without issues.

Although Chenjing Jade is highly effective for breaking through to Nascent Soul for cultivators, it is merely precious to the Chenjing Race.

This is the Ye Family’s reliance for this operation.

Ye Haisheng, as the master of the Chenjing, must bear this responsibility.

”Rest assured, big brother, Haisheng will achieve what the family entrusted!” Ye Haisheng cupped his hands, with three Sword Bottles behind him.

Though his Sword Bottles are Tier Three Sword Bottle Magical Treasures, his Swordsmanship cannot match the sharpness of Ye Xuecang’s.

But as a Sword Cultivator, he still possesses a proud heart.
