Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

The Water Spike Turtle flipped over, like an island rising from the sea floor, with unmatched grandeur.

And those thousands of water arrows poured forth like raindrops.

The Golden Rhinoceros' golden light horn instantly projected, transforming into a gigantic Golden Light Shield.

A cacophony of crackling sounds erupted instantly.

All the water arrows turned into spiritual rain falling down, while the Golden Light Shield remained unchanged.

Off to the side, Ye Jingcheng also flipped his hand, and a crimson Blazing Flame Fan flew out.

With a fierce wave of his palm, the five-colored flames soared, spreading across half of the sky.

The sound of hissing water vapor became a beautiful tune, circulating throughout the entire sea domain.

Even the five-colored flames transformed into five fire snakes, advancing towards the sea, as if vowing not to rest until the ocean was scorched dry!

Meanwhile, the Tier Three Late-stage Water Spike Turtle unleashed a Water Dragon Skill, identical to the spell used by the Sea-covering Demon King.

It instantly broke through the five-colored flames.

And fiercely struck the back of the Golden Rhinoceros Great Demon.

Ye Jingcheng was not angry; after all, it was a Tier Three Late-stage Great Demon, even amidst severe injuries, it's not something ordinary fire techniques can handle.

Meanwhile, the Red Flame Fox on the Golden Falcon's back had already transformed into four beasts, spewing four blue-red fireballs towards the Water Spike Turtle Great Demon.

Each fireball was enormous, like a descending sun.

Boom!

Ye Jingcheng also brought out the Cyan Light Mirror magical artifact, shooting a large swath of cyan light, immobilizing the Water Spike Turtle for a moment.

Boom!

The Water Spike Turtle's body was truly massive, temporarily immobilized by the Cyan Light Mirror, making it an easy target.

At a critical moment, it had no choice but to retreat completely into its turtle shell.

With the strength of this turtle shell, it felt exceptionally confident!

Of course, if it were merely ordinary flames and spiritual fire, they would only flicker over the turtle shell and dissipate upon sinking into the sea, extinguished by the water.

But the Cyan Yang Flame was no ordinary fire; it was a primordial spirit fire from heaven and earth.

Even submerged in seawater, it burned fiercely, transforming countless seawater into evaporating steam, exposing more of the island's shores.

At this moment, the Golden Rhinoceros Great Demon seized the opportunity to strike again with its horn.

The enormous Golden Light Horn was just as tremendous, striking the turtle shell.

The whole shell began to show signs of slight indentation, the turtle patterns on it dazzling to the extreme.

The Water Spike Turtle only awaited the slowing attacks, then it quickly shed its shell to dislodge the Cyan Yang Flame, a move mirroring the Sea-covering Demon King.

But as soon as it poked its head and claws out, it saw the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon and Golden Falcon already slashing upwards and downwards.

The coordination of these two beasts had reached an unprecedented level after so many days of beast hunting.

The giant golden small sword sliced towards the foreleg, while the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon swept towards the hind leg.

The Water Spike Turtle spewed the Water Dragon Skill again, its enormous turtle head filled with rage!

Its woeful cry sounded so piercing!

However, the small sword was deflected by the Water Dragon Skill, but the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon's strike hit true.

A clanging metal collision sounded, accompanied by countless blood splashes, merging into the seawater.

The Jade Qilin Flood Dragon did not relent, continuing to slash at the turtle tail.

Meanwhile, the Golden Rhinoceros Great Demon had somehow arrived beside the Water Spike Turtle, its enormous four hooves stomping down vigorously!

Rumble!

The sound of a mountain collapsing and countless water curtains being flung into high-speed torrents, solely from residual shockwave, sent tons of Supreme Profound Turtles and Profound Cyan Turtles flying.

The Water Spike Turtle roared loudly again, spewing the Water Dragon Skill with its Demon Pill included, a desperate attack.

Only, the Demon Beast Inner Core seemed dim, seemingly due to recent Spirit Egg birthing, having depleted significant primordial qi.

The Water Dragon Skill collided with the Golden Rhinoceros' golden pillar-like leg, flipping the Golden Rhinoceros instantly.

In a fit of angry demonstration, the Water Spike Turtle spontaneously grew countless spikes from its shell, continuing its assault on the Golden Rhinoceros.

At the same time, Ye Jingcheng's Celestial River Bead had fallen atop the Water Spike Turtle's head.

Predictably, the giant turtle head of the Water Spike Turtle extended, biting down on the Celestial River Bead.

The Celestial River Bead shattered into countless pieces, some entering the Water Spike Turtle's mouth.

Upon seeing this, Ye Jingcheng hesitated no longer, clutching his hand to reunite the Celestial River Bead.

"Awoo!" With a painful wail, the Water Spike Turtle's spiritual light dissipated substantially.

The Golden Falcon, Jade Qilin Flood Dragon, and Red Flame Fox promptly released their secret techniques.

Ye Jingcheng flew out his Cyan Hong Sword from the distance, severing the Water Spike Turtle's head.

Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng finally exhaled deeply.

This Tier Three Late-stage Demon Beast was truly challenging to kill; if not for the Golden Rhinoceros in front, and the Water Spike Turtle's recent Spirit Egg birth, Ye Jingcheng and his spirit beasts would have had no chance.

Fortunately, he remained calm.

In the distance, Ye Xuefan finished setting up an array, without taking action.

This was to let Ye Jingcheng take full credit again.

After all, the Golden Rhinoceros belonged to Ye Xuecang; as long as he didn't act, the major accomplishment would fall on Ye Jingcheng.

Moreover, Ye Jingcheng felt Ye Xuefan not only set the array but also guarded against the Golden Rhinoceros.

If anything happened to the Golden Rhinoceros, Turtle Ancestor might appear, and Ye Xuecang might also show up.

But the ending was favorable, Ye Jingcheng managed perfectly without needing hidden hands.

The Golden Rhinoceros Great Demon cooperate exceptionally.

Ye Jingcheng stored the giant turtle head and proceeded to slaughter the remaining second-tier demon turtles.

The most valuable Spirit Turtles were the young ones; if the Ye Family were to keep the adult turtles, it would require significant manpower and resources from the cultivators.

So, for second-tier and above adult turtles, Ye Jingcheng had his spirit beasts slay them all.

These Spirit Turtles did not appear in the Treasure Light.

The Golden Rhinoceros Great Demon was exceptionally clever at this moment, only grabbing those late second-tier Water Spike Turtles, snapping them along with their shells, and then devouring them in large bites.

This was agreed upon beforehand, and neither Ye Jingcheng nor Ye Xuefan stopped it.

After the fifty to sixty adult second-tier Spirit Turtles were all slain, only the young ones were left. Among these, the Water Spike Turtles were more numerous, and Ye Jingcheng noticed that nearly all these Water Spike Turtles had one or two advancement opportunities.

He also showed a joyful expression.

He took out a Celestial Demon Bag, enveloped them all, and then affixed a Spirit Talisman.

The Water Spike Turtles made excellent Spirit Pets for the Ye Family Cultivators, while the Supreme Profound Turtles were intended to brew Supreme Profound Wine.

The Profound Cyan Turtles had much less use, only suitable for shell extraction and refining defensive artifacts.

Moreover, their potential was much smaller than the first two.

"This Spirit Milk Cave at the elephant trunk mouth probably holds eighty-year-old Spirit Milk!" Ye Jingcheng said as he glanced at the Spiritual Milk he had seen earlier.

Of course, his gaze did not linger, and he headed towards the seabed.

The seabed was already in chaos, transformed into a mire and deep mud at the bottom of the deep sea.

The mountains beneath the island had already been shattered into many pieces.

However, the Treasure Book within Ye Jingcheng's body indicated that there was a Water Spike Turtle Spirit Egg capable of advancing three times beneath the mud!

Ye Jingcheng's Divine Sense penetrated through the thick mud and discovered the giant egg, as large as a basin.

To his surprise, this newly laid egg already had the spiritual breath of the early stage of the second tier.

This meant that as soon as it hatched, the Water Spike Turtle would be at least a mid-stage second-tier Demon Beast.

Its three advancements could be as impactful as four or five advancements for other Spirit Turtles.

In terms of value, this Water Spike Turtle could undoubtedly be considered top-tier.

But for Ye Jingcheng, it was rather ordinary; he now had Jade Qilin Flood Dragon and Roc Fish and wasn't very interested in the Water Spike Turtle.

Ye Jingcheng employed Water Escape and Earth Escape, quickly burrowing into the ground.

He retrieved the giant egg.

"This Water Spike Turtle Great Demon is really protective!" Ye Jingcheng couldn't help but be impressed; the Spirit Egg of the Water Spike Turtle was embedded in mud at least a hundred feet deep, and an ordinary Demon Beast might not find the Spirit Egg, even if it managed to kill the Water Spike Turtle.

Ye Jingcheng returned to Turtle Island, where Ye Xuecang had already collected several Spirit Eggs and young turtles.

Ye Jingcheng took out the Spirit Egg of the Water Spike Turtle.

"Jingcheng, you've made a great contribution this time; keep this egg!" Ye Xuefan said matter-of-factly.

"Fourth Uncle Ancestor, I can't keep this egg. I already have two Water-Phase Spirit Beasts, and having more Water Spike Turtles is of no use!" Ye Jingcheng shook his head, handing the Water Spike Turtle Spirit Egg to Ye Xuefan.

Suggesting he raise some Supreme Profound Turtles in his Grotto Heaven to brew Supreme Profound Wine occasionally was fine, but breeding Water Spike Turtles was unnecessary, in his opinion.

"Alright, then these Water Spike Turtles will be for Uncle Hai Fei; he still lacks a suitable Water Attribute Spirit Beast!" Ye Xuefan thought for a moment and nodded.

"Take these Spirit Milks; additionally, here are dozens of Turtle Spirit Grass!" Ye Xuefan spread out his hands, picking dozens of Spirit Grass from the island.

This Turtle Spirit Grass was a tier-three spiritual medicine, equally precious for those who enjoy dual cultivation, capable of refining Turtle Immortal Pills.

Such pills were even regarded as Holy Pills by Demon Sect cultivators.

For Ye Jingcheng, the Turtle Spirit Grass could also be used to refine a Turtle Ginseng Pill, which had a demon-luring effect.

Ye Jingcheng guessed that the presence of many turtles on this island might also be related to the Turtle Spirit Grass.

Ye Jingcheng packed away the Spirit Eggs and Spirit Turtles, then turned his attention to the Stone Milk Caves at the elephant trunk mouth.

These Stone Milk Caves were downcast and so deep that it seemed pitch black inside.

The outer areas were filled with Dead Pillars that didn't produce Spirit Milk; only further inside were some Living Pillars, but even those were devoid of Stone Milk.

Only the very center, with the largest Stone Milk Pillar, held a small circle of Spirit Milk.

Dripping into a groove on the ground.

Ye Jingcheng looked over, feeling overwhelmed by the pouring Spiritual Energy.

Even just inhaling it invigorated him.

Instantly surprised.

"Is this Centennial Spirit Milk?" Ye Jingcheng was immediately taken aback.

Realizing this, he quickly approached, seeing that there seemed to be at most five or six drops.

Yet a single drop of Centennial Spirit Milk could restore all the True Essence of a Purple Mansion Cultivator at a critical moment, making it akin to a life-saving artifact.

Ye Jingcheng carefully collected all the Spirit Milk into a Jade Bottle.

Gathering a total of six drops, Ye Jingcheng even scraped a bit off the rock before he was done.

Afterward, Ye Jingcheng took out an Array Disc and set up a Concealment Array inside the cave.

This way, even if new Demon Beasts arrived on the island, they wouldn't know the location of the Stone Milk, allowing him to return for it in the future.

After confirming everything was secure, Ye Jingcheng left the cave.

Ye Xuefan, at this time, also dismantled the array outside.

"Jingcheng, get ready to leave!" This island had already ventured somewhat deep into the Outer Sea.

They dared not linger.

"Fourth Uncle Ancestor, here are three drops for you!" Ye Jingcheng offered the Centennial Spirit Milk.

Dividing three drops for Ye Xuefan.

But Ye Xuefan kept only two drops, handing the extra drop back to Ye Jingcheng.

"According to the distribution rules, the family only takes thirty percent!" Ye Xuefan insisted, and Ye Jingcheng could only relent.

He indeed needed to ensure his stay on the Hidden Island would be safe.

"Thank you, Fourth Uncle Ancestor!" Ye Jingcheng bowed in gratitude.

Despite not obtaining any valuable young beasts or Spirit Eggs this time,

his greatest harvest was not the Centennial Spirit Milk but the Demon Beast Inner Core of the tier-three late-stage Water Spike Turtle.

That core could almost directly advance the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon to the Middle Stage of Purple Mansion.

Together with the turtle shell, it could also be used to forge a tier-three high-grade Defensive Spiritual Artifact and Magical Treasure.

Exceedingly precious.

Of course, the Centennial Spirit Milk was also an excellent find.
