Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book - Chapter 981 - 683: Slaying the Golden Core, Entering the Desert Sea
Chapter 981: Chapter 683: Slaying the Golden Core, Entering the Desert Sea
The brilliant spiritual aura spread, and at this moment, Zhang Yongxin and Jia Yun both looked ashen.
They didn’t know how many spirit talismans they had thrown, tier three, tier four, but apart from the spiritual light spreading out, they couldn’t hold out for long.
Initially, Zhang Yongxin kept unleashing a golden flying sword treasure, trying to carve a path or break the teleportation array.
The tier-four magical treasure flying sword, brimming with intense sword aura, indeed carried great might; even striking on the back of the Two-headed Turtle, it could leave a massive sword mark.
But the battle experience of the Earth Dragon Demon King was plentiful.
Occasionally, the golden giant tail smashed down, embedding the flying sword into the mountainside.
And once the flying sword was knocked away, the two could only rely on a single golden hook, constantly spinning, and a barely tier-four black pattern magic shield.
The magical treasures quickly became inadequate, forced to sustain bitterly, and even Jia Yun had to continuously take out tier three spirit puppets to sacrifice.
For the two, tier-four magical treasures were still too few, with limited means, facing six Demon Kings and a Golden Core cultivator, even with an array they couldn’t withstand, even delaying was a luxury.
The Earth Dragon Demon King’s occasionally enclosed Mountain Prison Skill, and the gigantic golden tail, any of them could deliver a devastating blow when executed.
And Ye Jingcheng wouldn’t give these two room to breathe at this moment.
“Everyone, give it your all!” Ye Jingcheng shouted angrily.
He didn’t intend to delay any longer and didn’t plan to capture these two alive, as that was simply impossible.
Although killing these two might lead to the breaking of the Soul Talisman and being discovered by the other side, at this moment, they could only race against time; Golden Core cultivators were already powerful, let alone two with tier-four magical treasures!
In his hand, he immediately pinched out the Void Profound Bottle and maximized its activation.
The intense void profound magical light directly absorbed the tier-four spirit puppets into the bottle.
The Three-eyed Demon King also seized the opportunity to breathe out flames, the engulfing black flame capable of burning even the Divine Soul, momentarily covering both the shield treasure and golden hook treasure.
Accompanied by the burning of the Divine Sense, the two magical treasures even lost control.
In some aspects, the Three-eyed Demon King’s black flame was even more lethal to Golden Core cultivators who hadn’t broken through long or had low cultivation!
As the light of the magical treasures vanished.
The Mammoth Demon King immediately charged recklessly, along with the Thunder Roc Demon King’s thunder feathers, the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon’s tail and claws, and the Double-headed Turtle Demon King’s entanglement all covering over.
And at this time, Zhang Yongxin’s cunning showed itself.
He took out a spirit talisman; it was an escape talisman.
Though this talisman couldn’t escape the lock of the Celestial Secret Cloth ancient treasure, it could move within it.
He transformed into a streak of spiritual light, landing behind Jia Yun.
“Brother Jia, you go first!” The spiritual light instantly engulfed Master Jia Yun.
Even as he took out hundreds of tier two and tier three spirit talismans before his death.
The might was indeed imposing.
But after all, they were only tier two and three spirit talismans, and he had only recently broken through to Golden Core, his body and cultivation hadn’t fully stabilized.
At that moment, not even a complete corpse was left!
“This Zhang Yongxin wants to self-detonate!” Ye Jingcheng’s Star Illusion Eye was like stars hanging upside down, crystal clear and brilliant, instantly piercing through the rampant spiritual light, seeing Zhang Yongxin’s body starting to swell behind.
The latter was still heading for the teleportation array, and even with the Double-headed Turtle guarding ahead, if Zhang Yongxin truly self-detonated, it might really damage the array.
If the teleportation array was broken, Ye Family’s plan would indeed fall into chaos.
Ye Jingcheng’s voice was extremely urgent at this moment!
It was then the Three-eyed Demon King finally opened its third eye.
With the third eye opened, an even more terrifying and hideous black flame turned into a black fire phoenix and shot out instantly.
The returning flying sword treasure and shield treasure were instantly burned through the controlling Divine Sense, reverting to their original states without True Essence infusion.
At this moment, the two tier-four magical treasures were as if thrown back into the Artifact Refining Furnace.
However, the power of the Black Phoenix was far from just that; it raised fierce flames, dragging Zhang Yongxin into the fire.
The eerie black flame emitted a wailing sound.
Further burning Zhang Yongxin’s painful screams!
The black flame was the Three-eyed Demon Roc’s Lifebound Spirit Fire, more so a Divine Soul Fire.
Zhang Yongxin’s Divine Soul was too weak.
Even self-detonation was halted.
Meanwhile, several stones flew towards Zhang Yongxin, as if the latter had suddenly donned a thick layer of Earth Armor.
Turning into a golden yellow peak.
But in the next moment, it exploded, turning into countless fragments of flesh and blood.
Zhang Yongxin indeed succeeded in self-detonating, but merely perished within the Earth Dragon Demon King’s Mountain Prison.
It was just like a rock burst, not causing much damage, with only a few foundation establishment cultivators caught off guard by the shattered stones, sustaining some injuries.
“Wood Head, release Divine Light!” Ye Jingcheng immediately commanded.
At this moment, they couldn’t relax, barely having the time to collect all storage bags and magical treasures.
Preparing to enter the teleportation array.
Ye Haiyan, Ye Haiyu, and Ye Xuefan had already gone ahead, starting to inspect the teleportation array.
“Grandpa, have Turtle Ancestor come over, prepare to transplant the teleportation array!”
Ye Haicheng had a Blood Contract with Turtle Ancestor, and staying close, he could sense simply.
Ye Jingcheng finished speaking and looked at the rest.
“Everyone, enter the grotto heaven first!” Ye Jingcheng took out the Grotto Heaven Stone Spirit and let everyone enter again.
At this moment, these family members once again took full stacks of spirit talismans, always ready for battle.
Even several Demon Kings looked serious at this moment—after all, no one could predict what was on the other side of the Teleportation Array.
But there was no turning back now, and they communicated urgently with their respective Spirit Beast Great Demons, doing everything they could to prepare.
“No problem!” Ye Xuefan spoke up.
Ye Jingcheng also nodded.
He calculated that the time elapsed since the two Golden Cores died did not exceed five breaths.
And the time since those Purple Mansion Foundation Establishments died did not exceed ten breaths!
Although everyone’s True Essence had not yet fully recovered, there was no more time.
Ye Jingcheng placed the prepared upper-grade spirit stones into the spirit slots.
The array patterns within the Teleportation Array began to illuminate one by one.
Ye Jingcheng maximized his control over the Spirit-controlling Earth Dragon Demon King and fully activated the Desolate Pattern of the Barbaric Tyrant Body Secret Manual.
Carrying multiple layers of Spirit Armor, he finally took out the Teleportation Talisman. Accompanied by a brilliant Spiritual Light, the familiar dizziness returned.
…
The Extreme West Desert Sea, an endless desert, swept across a dry yellow sky.
When the wild wind rises, the sand is swept high into the air.
Creating a terrifying dust storm in the sky.
Only within the oasis can one find refuge.
Longxing Oasis, the largest oasis of the Extreme West Desert Sea, unlike those natural oases.
Longxing Oasis was pieced together.
Its length already exceeds ten thousand miles, and it contains mountains, towns…
The dense spiritual energy fills the area with vitality.
At the center, each peak houses a grand hall.
One hall is the Zhang Family Hall, the other is the Jia Family Hall.
Known to the oasis people as the Twin Saint Hall.
The two halls face each other across the peaks, having similar heights and grand aura.
Only their reliefs and styles differ.
Unlike the Jia Family, which values Spirit Puppets and decorates their hall with numerous Spirit Puppet scroll reliefs.
The Zhang Family excels in Fire Dao, embellished with Artifact Furnace patterns, their style is grand, equally awe-inspiring.
At this moment, a Purple Mansion Cultivator at the center of the hall was planning the oasis and spirit vein, when a Foundation Establishment Cultivator stumbled in.
“Uncle He Li, Uncle Yongxin’s Soul Talisman just shattered moments ago!”
“How long has it been since it shattered?” the one named Zhang Helin hastily asked.
Zhang Yongxin was a Golden Core of the Zhang Family, and the Zhang Family had developed in the Desert Sea for hundreds of years. Now with one fallen, leaving only two, it’s a huge blow.
Moreover, with Zhang Yongxin dead, the Zhang Family in Yan Kingdom no longer has a Golden Core to hold fort, their cultivation resources might fall into other hands.
“Five breaths!”
“Why are you only reporting now!” Zhang Helin yelled, scaring the Foundation Establishment Cultivator who immediately fell to the ground trembling:
“Uncle He Li, Uncle Yongxin’s Soul Talisman is different, it didn’t shatter instantly, but appeared with a horizontal line, only after four to five breaths did it completely shatter!”
“Damn it, there must be a treasure locking the divine soul, delaying the shattering!”
“He An, go inform Ancestor Taichu and Ancestor Taiji, I will go inquire with the Jia Family’s Jia Mingyuan!” Zhang Helin quickly instructed.
As he flew out of the hall, he saw someone from the Jia Family wearing a Daoist Robe rushing over.
“Zhang Daoist, something big has happened! My Jia Family’s soul talismans at Fire Peak have all shattered. It’s detestable that the guarding clansmen couldn’t even see someone obscuring the Soul Talisman breakage, reporting only at the end. Now Jia Family’s cultivators at Fire Peak are all dead!” This person was Jia Mingyuan, Patriarch of the Desert Sea Family.
“I’ve transmitted to Guardian Ancestor Ze Yuan and Mingxuan, hoping to destroy the Teleportation Array in time.”
“Is your Ancestor Ze Yuan in seclusion again?” Zhang Helin hearing the transmission about the two, knew what had happened, anger appeared in his eyes.
This Jia Zeyuan is one of Jia Family’s three Great Golden Cores, and a Middle Stage Golden Core Cultivator. He is usually obsessed with cultivation and not interested in handling Jia Family affairs.
But now what time is it? It’s the eve of Zhang Family’s Ancestor Taiji breaking through to Nascent Soul, and Jia Family’s Martial Fool Golden Core guru still in seclusion while guarding the Teleportation Array!
“I must report this to Ancestor Taiji and Ancestor Taichu!” Zhang Helin spoke again.
At the same time, a Golden Core aura quickly spread, followed by golden light flying in from a distance, and from Jia Family Mountain, someone also flew out.
“Jia Zehai, the Teleportation Array is not broken. If the Three Great Sects attack, your Jia Family will hold the rear!” Zhang Taichu, an elderly white-haired figure, had extremely deep eyes on his aged face.
“Zhang Taichu, what do you mean? Your Zhang family’s Zhang Yongxing was also at Fire Peak. He is a seasoned Golden Core, can he be let off the hook for losing Fire Peak?” Jia Zehai spoke repeatedly.
Simultaneously he looked toward the depths of the Zhang Family Peak:
“Brother Taiji still in seclusion?”
“This time you don’t forcibly call him out of seclusion; when will you act? Until troops surround the city, forcibly breaking out with backlash injuries, will there be combat power?”
“Is there any news from Jiaxing Pass at the moment?” Zhang Taichu also looked at Jia Mingyuan.
Seeing him shake his head.
“No reply at all!”
