Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Spring passed, autumn came, the snow cleared and clouds dispersed, two years flew by once again.

Within the Grotto Heaven, Ye Jingcheng sat in the pavilion, with the Five Elements True Essence roaring inside him like a mighty river.

When Ye Jingcheng first modified his practice to the Five Spirits True Manual, he discovered that the True Essence from it was especially powerful, making his meridians feel a swelling pain when fully cultivated.

However, this situation greatly improved after he practiced the Barbaric Tyrant Body Secret Manual.

And now, not to mention ordinary cultivation, Ye Jingcheng could even slowly refine the Tier Five True Essence of the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor.

As a Circulation concluded, Ye Jingcheng finally opened his eyes, exhaling a breath of turbid air.

Feeling that his Five-Colored Golden Core had grown larger again, he couldn’t help but smile.

"It should take another year or so of cultivation." With the Blood Avatar’s research in Alchemy, Ye Jingcheng had been cultivating all this time.

Unlike ordinary cultivators, who absorbed spiritual power and True Essence through breathing techniques.

Most of his True Essence came from the Four Beasts, with a minority from the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor, and only a small portion from breathing techniques.

Therefore, his True Essence was vast, condensed, and long-lasting, saving him a lot of effort.

Additionally, in the past two years, he had consumed many Spirit Pills to achieve the current results.

The reason for stopping now was also because it was time to feed his spirit beasts every three months.

Within Ye Jingcheng’s Grotto Heaven, there are now deer, pigs, fish for the beasts to feast on with blood, as well as Meat Ganoderma Wood Demon.

The Spirit Vein has reached Tier Four, so there is no lack of food and Spiritual Energy, but some Spirit Pills and Treasure Light still need to be provided to the beasts periodically.

Otherwise, it would be unrealistic for Ye Jingcheng to expect all the beasts to maintain rapid growth.

"Are you finally going to advance successfully?" However, before Ye Jingcheng could stand up and distribute the Spirit Medicine, he noticed a change in the Array surrounding the Red Flame Fox in the distance.

Dense firelight ignited the Array, turning it into a gigantic furnace, blazing intensely.

From afar, the sight of firelight reaching the sky was extremely intimidating.

Ye Jingcheng sensed no negative Divine Thoughts from the Red Flame Fox, so he did not move forward.

Instead, he was a bit expectant, hoping that with such movements, the Red Flame Fox would grow its fifth tail, and its power should increase considerably.

At this moment, it wasn’t just Ye Jingcheng watching; all the Spirit Beasts and Wood Demons were watching.

As the fiery temperature spread, the entire Grotto Heaven became much warmer.

Even the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon was stirred, as the waters of the Spirit Lake were slightly warm.

The constant Spiritual Rain from the Stone Spirit Grotto Heaven helped to alleviate the temperature of the Spirit Medicine.

Otherwise, some Spirit Medicines in the Spirit Field, which were extremely sensitive to temperature, would have been affected.

"It seems the Grotto Heaven is still too small, and I need to establish a Spiritual Eye to divide two Spirit Mountains and Spirit Veins." Most of the Arrays in Ye Jingcheng’s Grotto Heaven are only Tier Three.

It’s not because he’s economical, but because Tier Four Arrays are rather precious, and placing them in the Grotto Heaven feels like a waste.

But now, each breakthrough and advancement of the spirit beasts creates increasingly larger movements. Either he covers the area with Tier Four Arrays or upgrades the Grotto Heaven, expanding the Spirit Veins.

Otherwise, it can easily damage the Spirit Medicines and may even affect the breakthroughs of other spirit beasts.

"Chirp!" Finally, with a pleasant chirp.

All the flames in the sky vanished, revealing the Spirit Shadow of a Five-tailed Fire Fox.

The Fire Fox’s five tails were extraordinarily long, fluttering constantly in the void.

Its crimson fur still resembled fire, rising and falling intermittently.

On the Red Flame Fox’s exquisite forehead was a mark of a Spirit Furnace.

Within the Spirit Furnace, the Five-Colored Flames danced, emitting astonishing heat.

As the Red Flame Fox lightly raised its hand, the flame furnace mark on its forehead suddenly flew out, becoming a solid entity; this scene startled even Ye Jingcheng.

Upon closer inspection, he found that this furnace was also a condensed Spirit Shadow.

Yet it was so realistic that Ye Jingcheng almost mistook it.

The power of the furnace was also terrifying.

Ye Jingcheng immediately drew out the Golden Glaze Sword, but once it entered the furnace, it began to melt into molten iron.

If a cultivator fell into the furnace, Ye Jingcheng could hardly imagine the scene.

Ye Jingcheng hurriedly retrieved the Golden Glaze Sword; although it suffered severe damage, it was at least a Tier Four Spiritual Treasure, not to be wasted.

Reforging by an Artifact Refining Master or giving it to other members of the clan are both good options.

Judging by the current trend of the Ye Clan, Ye Haicheng and Chu Yanqing’s breakthroughs to the Golden Core stage shouldn’t be far off.

After showcasing its furnace, the Red Flame Fox swung its five tails again, creating eight fox shadows.

In the next moment, it even transformed into a figure resembling Chu Yanqing, with the surrounding location changing to a pavilion on Lingyun Peak.

The figures of Ye Jingli, Ye Jingyong, and others appeared around as well.

This was clearly a scene from the Ye family’s alliance marriage in the past.

At that moment, a warm current from the Blood Soul Bead flowed into Ye Jingcheng’s heart, causing the illusion to disappear completely.

Leaving only the Red Flame Fox squinting its fox eyes, looking at him, chirping twice.

As if asking about Ye Jingcheng’s opinion on the illusion technique.

"Indeed, it’s marvelous," Ye Jingcheng could not help but praise.

In other words, even though Ye Jingcheng possesses the Divine Sense of the Late Stage of Golden Core, he might still fall for it if he doesn’t have the Blood Soul Bead.

"Let these two techniques be named Celestial Fox Fire Furnace and Five-tailed Illusion!" Ye Jingcheng even gave names to the two moves of the Red Flame Fox.

Adding the Red Flame Fox’s original five spiritual fires, now the Red Flame Fox might not even be matched by the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon.

However, after the demonstration, the Red Flame Fox shrank again, transforming back to the size when it first met Ye Jingcheng, and flew into Ye Jingcheng’s embrace.

Gentle like a house cat.

Ye Jingcheng took out a Tier Four Profound Flame Pill and started releasing Treasure Light.

The Red Flame Fox is his most important Spirit Beast, not only does it have good talent, but it also assists him in Alchemy.

He naturally wouldn’t be stingy.

He input a full three pages of Treasure Light before stopping.

From a distance, the Golden Scale Beast hesitated for the first time.

Earlier, when the Red Flame Fox broke through, it was extremely excited, but upon seeing the Red Flame Fox’s demonstration of the fire furnace, it couldn’t help but think of the Cyan Yang Flame.

"Roar!" However, after pondering for a while, the Golden Scale Beast still gathered the courage to roar.

No matter what, it had to give it a try; after all, with its master present, it wasn’t afraid of any danger.

Thus, it continued to provoke.

Seeing the annoying face of the Golden Scale Beast, the Red Flame Fox jumped out too, its eyes flashing with Spiritual Light, its five tails swaying.

The strange thing was, the next moment, the Golden Scale Beast started laughing cheekily, even drooling profusely.

The golden halls of the Earth Qilin Hall instantly dissipated, along with the Golden Scale Beast’s Scale Armor.

Evidently, the Golden Scale Beast fell for the Red Flame Fox’s move instantly and was pulled into the Illusion Realm by the Red Flame Fox.

Many cultivators avoid looking at the eyes of demon beasts capable of illusion skills, to evade the illusions. The Golden Scale Beast could actually do this.

After all, the Golden Scale Beast was previously tormented by the heart fire of the Red Flame Fox.

Yet the spiritual fire comes from the eyes, while the illusion skill stems from the fifth tail.

Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng couldn’t help but cast disdainful glances.

He had advised the Golden Scale Beast earlier, but unfortunately, this beast was unwaveringly stubborn!

It wasn’t until a moment passed that the Golden Scale Beast regained its composure. Yet upon recovering, the Golden Scale Beast realized it had lost face, and once again dashed into the Celestial Spirit Body Refining Array.

Of course, when charging in, it didn’t forget to roar towards the Five-colored Cloud Deer.

The Five-colored Cloud Deer responded listlessly, before entering the array too, becoming a sparring partner for the Golden Scale Beast.

After the Red Flame Fox taught the Golden Scale Beast a lesson, it lifted its head high with a hint of pride before flying back to perch on Ye Jingcheng’s arm.

"You need to consolidate first!" Ye Jingcheng gave it a Spirit Cultivation Pill, then placed the Red Flame Fox on the pavilion.

The Red Flame Fox had broken through, but Ye Jingcheng hadn’t yet distributed the spirit pills and treasure light to the other spirit beasts.

The Wood Demon Spirit Beasts had been waiting for a long time.

Ye Jingcheng spent a joss stick’s time providing Treasure Light and feeding the spirit beasts.

Finally, he walked to the Blood Spring.

With the advancement of the Spirit Vein, the spring water produced by the Blood Spring became more abundant over the two years without collecting, it was almost overflowing now.

Ye Jingcheng started scooping it up bowl by bowl with a Spirit Bowl.

He then sprinkled it over the Nine Curves Spirit Ginseng.

The ginseng leaves which hadn’t grown much began to gradually expand, turning green and lush.

Two leaves sprouted, looking exceptionally delightful.

Even though there’s still a long way for the Nine Curves Spirit Ginseng to mature and be used as medicine, in Ye Jingcheng’s view, as long as the Blood Spring advances once more, the time to maturity for the Nine Curves Spirit Ginseng could be expedited by years.

After feeding the spirit beasts and Wood Demon Stone Spirit, Ye Jingcheng returned to the pavilion and started his seclusion.

He felt it was time to break through to the Middle Stage of Golden Core.

The entire Grotto Heaven settled back into tranquility.

...

Celestial Phoenix Oasis, Celestial Shadow Peak, Assembly Hall.

At this moment, many Ye Clan Elders had gathered here.

This included Ye Xueliang, Ye Xuefu, and Ye Xuecang, Ye Haifei, and even Ye Haiyu from the Eastern Domain had arrived in front of the Assembly Hall.

There were also quite a few Foundation Establishment Clan Elders; the hall currently housed a total of fifty people.

"Alright, excluding those clan members who cannot be present, let’s determine the quota for the Beast Communication Hall this time!" Ye Xuecang announced.

This meeting was for the Ye Clan to announce the quota for the Beast Communication Hall.

"Xueliang, please read the list of clan members who passed the trial, then we’ll have everyone vote!"

"Yes, Second Brother!" Ye Xueliang nodded, then took out a Jade Talisman and began reading the list.

"Those above thirty who passed the trial are: Ye Xingyuan, Ye Jingshen, Ye Qinghu, Ye Qinghe, Ye Qingxuan!"

"Those below thirty who passed are Ye Qingfeng, Ye Qingnian, Ye Yunxuan..."
