Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Inside the grotto heaven, the blazing sun shines brightly.

The warm sun shines on Ye Jingcheng, making him squint slightly, his entire body warm and cozy.

Obviously, as time goes by, the entire grotto heaven increasingly resembles a mini world, to the point that Ye Jingcheng can no longer feel the difference between the grotto heaven and the outside world.

This indicates that the rules of the grotto heaven are becoming increasingly perfect; at this moment, the scope of the grotto heaven has even surpassed that of the Turtle Ancestor Grand Cyan Grotto Heaven by quite a bit.

Even moving Ye Clan members can bring nearly a million people inside.

Of course, most of the time, Ye Jingcheng’s grotto heaven is used for himself, with many spirit medicines and spiritual springs needing his nurturing, which differs in certain ways from both the Grand Cyan Grotto Heaven and Jade Celestial Heaven. And besides, there are many secrets too, so unless there’s a special circumstance, he won’t move the clan members inside.

Besides the space, what delighted Ye Jingcheng is that, after more than thirty years, the spirit beasts, spirit medicines, and wood demons all grew extremely well throughout the grotto heaven.

On the grasslands, the number of spirit sheep and spirit deer has increased more than tenfold. In the lake, the Moon Spirit Pearl has also increased considerably. It’s important to know that before he went into seclusion, he only had a dozen or so Tier Three Moon Spirit Pearls left, with the highest cultivation among them already reaching Tier Four, although its combat power isn’t particularly strong.

Yet being able to nurture Tier Four Water Spirit Beads is still extremely good news for the Ye Clan.

Besides the Moon Spirit Pearl, Ye Jingcheng is also pleased that the Cyan Jade Lotus blooms exceptionally brightly; even simply harvesting Cyan Jade Lotus seeds is quite a substantial resource.

At a spirit mountain in the distance, the number of Thunder Rhinoceros Insects is also considerable, traveling in groups flying like Five Poison Bees, occasionally emitting thunder light, flashing in and out of sight in the void.

If unaware, one might think they sounded a peal of thunder, heralding an imminent sudden storm.

And it should be known that before going into seclusion, Ye Jingcheng left only a few Thunder Rhinoceros Insects, giving the rest to the clan.

It’s evident that they have bred once, with the number reaching over three hundred, all offspring of Hidden-Wing Thunder Rhinoceros Insects. Among them are more than ten maintaining the hidden wings like the original Hidden-Wing Thunder Rhinoceros Insects.

Among them, the highest cultivated Thunder Rhinoceros Insect King has broken through to Tier Four, bearing two Thunder Flood Dragon horns, looking extremely ferocious. Upon seeing Ye Jingcheng appear, it led the swarm over from the Tier Three Middle Grade pure thunder attribute spirit vein.

Aside from Thunder Rhinoceros Insects, the Golden Light Bamboo Forest has doubled in size, with many Golden Light Bamboos fully matured, nearing five hundred years in age, ready to be cut down for the Ye Clan to refine flying swords.

Golden Light Bamboo is a Tier Two High-grade Flying Sword Spirit Material, and these high-aged ones can be used as magical treasure materials.

Apart from these spirit insects and spirit plants, Ye Jingcheng is most delighted with the situation of the spirit medicines and wood demons.

The Nine Curves Spirit Ginseng, which Ye Jingcheng has been cultivating, has now reached a thousand years in age, much higher than he imagined.

Previously, he planned to use it when it reached eight hundred years to refine a Nascent Soul Pill, possibly resulting in a Nascent Soul Pill with pill fragrance.

Now reaching a thousand years implies the refined Nascent Soul Pill will be even more effective.

Of course, at this moment, Ye Jingcheng is contemplating how he can refine more than two Nascent Soul Pills.

After all, he has already broken through to Nascent Soul; with some carefulness, his alchemy skill should soon reach Tier Five Alchemy, which makes it possible.

Next to the Nine Curves Spirit Ginseng, the Gold Condensing Fruit Tree has begun to bear fruit, with three fruits hanging now, each looking brilliantly golden, a sight cherished.

Additionally, the Star Pear Wood Demon is now at the early stage of Tier Four, having borne six spirit fruits, these Tier Four spirit fruits can definitely allow Ye Jingcheng’s Star Illusion Eye to advance another layer.

Perhaps it may even enable Ye Jingcheng’s eye power to perform illusions, something he is quite eager about.

Near the Star Pear Wood, the Tier Four Golden Quenching Fruit Wood Demon has also borne four spirit fruits this time, albeit fewer than the Star Pear Wood, but still significantly beneficial to Ye Jingcheng.

Previously, it took a Tier Four Advancement Pill during seclusion, strengthening its bloodline, surely enhancing the effects of its spirit fruits.

Beside the Star Pear Fruit Tree, there is also a Primordial Star Forging Fruit Tree with three fruits hanging; this fruit tree was found in Xu Qiukui’s storage bag by Ye Jingcheng.

This tree was once a gate guardian fruit tree of the Cyan Spring Sect, offering great benefits to the body of Golden Core cultivators.

With these two types of fruits, advancing Ye Jingcheng’s body to the middle stage of Golden Core would merely be a matter of time.

He could even save some fruit for Ye Haige and Ye Haicheng, both of whom are body cultivators.

The Peach Wood, though currently bare, had its spirit fruits mature and harvested more than a decade ago, as Ye Jingcheng is well aware.

”Master!”

The Red Flame Fox was the first to notice Ye Jingcheng entering the grotto heaven, immediately flying over to him.

After the Red Flame Fox arrived, Peach Wood Stone Spirit along with the other wood demons all gathered before Ye Jingcheng.

All of the spirit beasts and wood demons were extremely excited, as more than thirty years ago, they could absorb treasure light and consume spirit pills at intervals.

However, over these three decades, they’ve only had the spirit pills Ye Jingcheng reserved for them early on. Although they weren’t entirely without pills, they found it considerably scarce.

It was something they weren’t very accustomed to.

”Congratulations on breaking through to Nascent Soul True Monarch, Immortal Dao within reach...” The Peach Wood immediately began a lengthy congratulatory speech.

As it spoke, it took out a tray, on top of which were seven spiritual peaches that could extend life by a hundred years.

Each spiritual peach now can extend life by a hundred years, bearing fruit every thirty years. Along with breaking through to the mid-stage Fourth Tier, it bore a total of seven spiritual peaches.

This, for the Ye Family, is naturally great news. For many Xing Generation or Jing Generation family members, it also represents another chance to change their fate.

Of course, the quantity of spiritual peaches is limited; it will keep two for itself for other uses, and the remainder will depend on the family’s contributions.

Among them, members like Ye Jingyu who have consumed it before are difficult to consider, as each additional spiritual peach consumed halves the life-extending effect.

On the third spiritual peach, even if it extends life by a hundred years, one fourth is only twenty-five years.

Besides the spiritual peaches, the Peach Wood also took out a storage bag, handing it to Ye Jingcheng.

Inside the storage bag were mature spiritual medicines and fruits collected over the years, along with the Body Refining Golden Milk of Golden Glowing Malachite.

It certainly fulfilled the duties of a Grotto Heaven steward.

”Well done, next, I will give you some Spirit Feeding Liquid, you must put in more effort!” Ye Jingcheng said.

The family’s research on the spiritual formula for raising Wood Demons, Ye Jingcheng naturally copied a copy.

Just as a reward for Peach Wood; as for the Tier Five Advancement Pill Formula, although still searching, Tier Five spiritual medicines are not easy to find and take a lot of time.

Peach Wood was extremely glad to hear this.

”Thank you Master, you are indeed the best True Monarch in the world...”

”Alright, no more talking, I’ll give you Treasure Light first!” Ye Jingcheng waved his hand repeatedly and began to channel Treasure Light to Peach Wood.

After the Wood Demons, Ye Jingcheng’s spirit beasts slowly arrived, landing before him.

Because Ye Jingcheng previously said he wanted to test the results, all the spirit beasts worked very hard, especially the Golden Scale Beast. When Ye Jingcheng came in, it relied on its peak Fourth Tier cultivation to fight against the Golden-eyed Vermilion Bird and the White-Browed Cyan Wolf.

Of course, the result was still rather embarrassing.

The Golden-eyed Vermilion Bird, equipped with a magical treasure, even though it was only mid-stage Fourth Tier, slightly held the upper hand against the Golden Scale Beast. After all, the gravity of Golden Scale Beast had no effect on the Vermilion Bird.

The fierce strikes of the club forced even the Golden Scale Beast to avoid them, coupled with the terrifying speed of the White-Browed Cyan Wolf, the scales of the Golden Scale Beast fell off several times.

Ye Jingcheng also planned to refine Vermilion Disdain Pill soon, whose Invulnerability Divine Techniques could definitely be very effective in some situations.

Ye Jingcheng distributed spirit pills and Treasure Light to each arriving demon beast and Wood Demon, which took most of the day.

Among them, the mid-stage Third Tier Jade Ring Rat and Earthworm each received spirit pills and Treasure Light before returning to their respective spirit fields.

Ye Jingcheng finally looked towards the Blood Spring and Celestial Dream Butterfly, who hadn’t moved.

Both had already broken through to the Fourth Tier, including Blood Spring, which had consumed the Tier Four Advancement Pill.

The years of Nine Curves Spirit Ginseng were evidently the result of Blood Spring’s advancement.

Whereas Celestial Dream Butterfly didn’t take the Advancement Pill, only breaking through due to its good talent after consuming the prepared spirit pill from Ye Jingcheng.

”Spring Spirit, how many years of medicinal potency can you increase for spirit plants with one drop of Blood Spring?” Ye Jingcheng eagerly asked Blood Spring.

”To respond to Master, each drop can increase by five years, but it can only condense about six drops a year. Of course, if the spiritual energy is strong, it could condense eight or nine drops!” Blood Spring replied.

Its personality is similar to Stone Spirit Grotto Heaven; it does not say much.

Even when it comes to Treasure Light and spirit pills, it stays behind.

As for the reasons of the spirit vein, Ye Jingcheng knew. His current Grotto Heaven Spirit Vein had not reached Tier Five, requiring purchases of a Tier Five Spirit Gathering Array and Tier Five Spirit-Attracting Stone in the Central Domain or Medicine King Valley.

As long as the identity is well concealed, both should sell one to the Ye Family.

Ye Jingcheng’s Grotto Heaven Spirit Vein would then naturally advance.

Once reaching Tier Five, his Spirit Medicine Garden would not need to absorb spiritual energy from the outside world.

Blood Spring could maximize the refining of Spiritual Spring, and Peach Wood could maximize the bearing of spirit fruits.

After checking the spirit beasts, Ye Jingcheng signaled the Crimson Flame Fox to begin alchemy.

After refining enough spirit pills, Crimson Flame Fox could start taking the Nascent Soul Pill to advance to Tier Five!
