Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book Chapter 1096 - 774: Sword Tower, Array Complete
Previously on Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book...
Celestial Capital Commandery, Tian Dao Sect, First Peak.
On the mountain peak, several Sword Towers were scattered.
These Sword Towers were places where the Tian Dao Sect honed the Blade Intent of their internal disciples.
Most of the Sword Towers were three layers, with a few being four layers.
Only the topmost core Sword Tower had five layers.
At this moment, Master Mo Dao stood before the Sword Tower, accompanied by several other true masters of the Tian Dao Sect.
The expressions of the few were somewhat gloomy.
They seemed extremely worried about the future of the Tian Dao Sect.
"For treacherous families, I believe they should be struck down with thunderous might the first chance we get, with no leniency. Taiyi Sect doesn’t even have a Nascent Soul yet they can hold on for so long; there’s no reason we cannot!" An elder with a fierce face spoke angrily.
However, no one responded.
In the eyes of many true masters, True Monarch Ziji of the Taiyi Sect had significantly depleted lifespan, and outsiders had no idea when he might pass away.
But the lifespan of Tian Dao True Monarch was something outsiders were well aware of.
Such a deadline, no matter how you try, cannot be hidden.
If we truly strike with thunderous might at the slightest sign now, it might instead lead to rumors that Tian Dao True Monarch has already passed away.
At that point, it’s impossible for Tian Dao True Monarch to constantly show his presence to deter the small-minded; it’s better to lure the wolves into the house and then eliminate all at once!
For this reason, Longevity Elixirs on the market are rarer, clearly because someone doesn’t want Tian Dao True Monarch to extend his lifespan.
"Xuanmie, let’s wait for Uncle-Master’s arrangements. He has probably already decided, or else he wouldn’t arrange matters for us at the First Sword Tower!" someone else spoke.
The elder named Xuanmie fell silent at this.
"Mo Dao, you may enter now!" At this moment, an ancient voice came from the Sword Tower.
Hearing this, Master Mo Dao had a compassionate look, as if accepting some kind of legacy.
He walked inside.
Inside, an elder also walked out, another Peak Master of the Tian Dao Sect.
"Senior Brother..." Master Mo Dao looked somewhat disheartened.
"Junior Brother Mo Dao, you have the most talent in Blade Intent in the Tian Dao Sect, please work hard!" After speaking, the man also left.
Before long, Master Mo Dao arrived inside the Sword Tower.
Several Spiritual Sabers were placed inside the tower.
If an average cultivator enters, these Spiritual Sabers would attack under the guidance of the Array.
This would train the cultivator’s Sword Technique, and this is why the Tian Dao Sect’s Sword Technique is one of a kind in the Eastern Domain.
Because inside every Sword Tower, there is a unique Sword Technique.
As Master Mo Dao walked in, the Flying Sabers around also started to tremble, a precursor to the activation of the Array.
Sure enough, the next moment, all the Flying Sabers rose.
But to Master Mo Dao, such Sword Techniques were too simple.
He didn’t even need to release a Spirit Shield; just by urging his Blade Intent, all the Spiritual Sabers automatically avoided him, as if Master Mo Dao himself was an unparalleled fierce blade.
The same was true for the First Layer, Second Layer, and Third Layer.
Not until the Fourth Layer did he encounter considerable pressure, as there were Magical Treasure Spiritual Sabers within the sword array.
The clang of swords echoed, seemingly like various fierce beasts roaring, transforming into numerous sword shadows, flying toward him.
At this moment, the sword shadows truly poured down like rain, densely packed and overwhelming, inducing terror.
An average Golden Core Cultivator might fall with regret before the sword array.
Master Mo Dao finally began to draw his blade.
In an instant, shadows of the blade danced, sword light flared.
With a single stroke of Blade Intent and a style of Sword Technique, he effortlessly passed through the sword array.
And ascended to the Fifth Layer.
Arriving at the Fifth Layer, it was surprisingly empty, with only an elder meditating on a zafu.
"Uncle-Master!" Master Mo Dao put away the grief on his face.
"The Space Jade has been refined, this time I must trouble you." Tian Dao True Monarch finally spoke, and his expression slightly changed.
The trade of this Space Jade for Longevity Peach was a covert matter; calling so many people was out of concern that the Golden Core might be bribed or even swapped.
"Uncle-Master is too kind, it’s just a trivial errand; if successful, it can extend life by over seventy years, giving our Tian Dao Sect another chance to strive for the Earth Immortal Realm." Master Mo Dao dared not take credit.
After speaking, he brightened his eyes and asked: "Uncle-Master, could the Ye Family have more than two?"
"I’ve heard of this Longevity Spiritual Peach before, but it only extends life by five years, it should also be from the Ye Family; the Ye Family likely has more than one Longevity Spirit Peach Tree!"
"No matter how many, it’s unnecessary to think or speak of it. Dao, you must understand, all opportunities should be pursued within one’s means. Without complete assurance, it’s best to maintain good relations. This way, if the sect needs it in the future, the Ye Family won’t be too absolute."
"If I’m not mistaken, the Ye Family’s Teleportation Array should have been destroyed in the Beast Tide, many Ye Family members should currently be unable to return, I saw True Monarch Tai Peng at Cyan Jade Pass, with the style of the Penglai Sect’s actions, they must have gone to the Taihang Mountain Range, perhaps even alerted the Demon Saint."
"A Demon Saint’s intervention would undoubtedly eliminate any teleportation arrays."
"However, the Ye Family does have quite a few secrets, if the Ye Family becomes powerful, we must guard against them, but currently the Qinghe Sect is powerful, they are our allies, leaving node information is fine, but don’t attempt to transport!" Tian Dao True Monarch said.
Hearing this, Master Mo Dao nodded repeatedly. His real name was Xiao Dao Mo, hailing from the same clan as Tian Dao True Monarch, though this was known by few.
Therefore, he paid special heed to Tian Dao True Monarch.
After taking the Space Jade and copying the node information, Master Mo Dao carefully stored it away.
"Take this knife technique and spread the word outside to exchange for Nascent Soul Treasures, and also gather more information about the Chenjing Sea!" Tian Dao True Monarch added.
"Alright." Master Mo Dao accepted the Jade Talisman and exited the Sword Tower.
Soon, he appeared outside, and Tian Dao True Monarch began to summon others to come in.
...
Taihang Commandery, Lingyun Peak, the Underground Palace of Lingyun Lake.
At this moment, several palaces were dismantled, revealing a massive underground hall.
Inside the hall, Ye Jingyu was leading clan members in setting up one array after another.
Several Ye Clan members admired Ye Jingyu’s talent in Array Dao, as they had learned quite a lot just from the inscription of these arrays.
Even Ye Xingliu could only assist at this moment.
"Father, I’ll join in with the Space Disc."
Currently, the overall setup of the Teleportation Array was completed, and next was the core structure of the array, the Space Disc.
Once the Space Disc is set up and the Spatial Jade is placed inside, it should be ready to attempt teleportation.
The Space Disc was Ye Xingliu’s responsibility for refining.
"Indeed, there are still several core Array Diagrams, and I’m not very confident!" Ye Xingliu did not force himself and handed the Space Disc to Ye Jingyu for refining.
At that moment, Ye Jingyu suddenly had an idea.
He spoke again shortly:
"Father, I might need your help; Elder Mo Dao has arrived!"
"Then you should go first and arrange the matter of the Spiritual Peach, telling him to come back in ten days, saying it will mature only then!" Ye Xingliu reminded.
Ye Jingyu nodded and flew away toward Lingyun Peak.
...
Ye Jingyu arrived at the previous mountain peak, where the previous array was also present.
Upon entering, there was a pavilion.
Master Mo Dao had long been waiting inside.
"Ye Kid, the Spatial Jade is ready!" Master Mo Dao didn’t waste words.
He directly took out the palm-sized Spatial Jade.
The Spatial Patterns inside the jade were numerous and extremely complex.
Ye Jingyu took the Spatial Jade and began to carefully examine and compare.
The Spatial Jade is crucial to the smooth functioning of the Teleportation Array, so it cannot be done casually.
It took a long time before Ye Jingyu spoke:
"Thank you, Elder Mo Dao!"
"Elder, the Spiritual Peach needs ten days to mature. Would you like to wait on the mountain?" Ye Jingyu proposed.
"No, I have several trade fairs to attend; I’ll come back in half a month to collect it!" Master Mo Dao shook his head directly.
He naturally knew what the Ye Clan was up to during these days.
Ten days was just a guise.
"Moreover, going up the mountain could risk exposure, which wouldn’t be good!"
"Please be assured, Elder, we are also worried about the Spatial Jade leaking, so we will keep it confidential!" Ye Jingyu quickly replied.
This caused Master Mo Dao to pause, his expression somewhat intriguing.
His second sentence was a warning to Ye Jingyu not to reveal the Spiritual Peach matter.
Unexpectedly, Ye Jingyu warned him not to leak the Teleportation Array information, which was the first time he had seen such an interesting Purple Mansion Cultivator.
Seeing Ye Jingyu’s expression unchanged, Master Mo Dao couldn’t help but take another look at him.
Soon after, he gathered the array and flew into the distance.
Watching him depart, Ye Jingyu narrowed his eyes slightly, pondered for a moment, and then flew back toward Lingyun Peak.
At his feet, a few Spirit Ants were discreetly dropped.
Upon entering Lingyun Peak, Ye Jingyu once again inspected the Spatial Jade. This time he used a Spirit Skill to briefly activate it, ensuring there were no issues, then entered Lingyun Lake.
Under the lake, the Teleportation Array was completely set up, and Ye Xingliu gave Ye Jingyu a confirming nod.
Evidently, during Ye Jingyu’s absence, Ye Xingliu managed to set up the Space Disc, needing only the Spatial Jade to be ready for activation.
For caution’s sake, Ye Jingyu inspected the Space Disc and Teleportation Platform, confirming everything was in order before showing the Spatial Jade to Ye Jinghu and Ye Xingliu.
"Jingyu, there’s no problem!"
"Fourth brother, no problem. The Spatial Node and Array Pattern are identical to our family’s!" Ye Jinghu also nodded.
Once both confirmed everything, Ye Jingyu placed the Spatial Jade into the Space Disc on the Teleportation Platform.
As Spiritual Light spread, it gradually formed into one whole.
Ye Jingyu let out a sigh of relief and gave Ye Jingyun a look, who immediately understood and took out the Array Banner, inserting several Spirit Techniques.
The array on Lingyun Peak activated again, gathering clouds and raising moisture, leading to a pouring rain shortly thereafter.
Seeing this, Ye Jingyu placed Spirit Stones, activating Spirit Techniques, and the Teleportation Array began to reveal numerous Spirit Patterns.
Finally, white light emerged, although it hadn’t fully activated the Teleportation Array yet, not entirely covering everything.
"We can try it now!" Feeling the spatial fluctuations, Ye Jingyu waved and took out several Mountain-devouring Rats to attempt using the Teleportation Array.
