Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book Chapter 1279 - 893: Breakthrough to Late Stage of Golden Core, Temporary Market

In the time that followed, Ye Jingcheng also tested the abilities of the three demons.

Among them, the ability of Stone Spirit Grotto Heaven is stronger in space concealment, and it can also transform into a Stone Giant to fight, just like Turtle Ancestor.

However, for Ye Jingcheng, under special circumstances, it’s unlikely he would let the Stone Spirit engage directly with other Golden Core opponents.

Similar to the Ye Family’s Turtle Ancestor, although Turtle Ancestor is quite powerful, it rarely has the chance to engage in combat.

This is not because Ye Jingcheng favors the Stone Spirit of the Grotto Heaven more but rather fears something might go wrong in the Grotto Heaven.

After all, the Grotto Heaven contains the spiritual medicines and efforts Ye Jingcheng has collected over the years.

Besides nurturing the Spiritual Peach, the peach wood that Ye Jingcheng discovered also contains Fourth Tier peach gum, which now possesses ample Spiritual Energy, intriguing the Thunder Rhinoceros Insects greatly.

After consuming it, each one becomes fiercely aggressive. This phenomenon occurred for the first time when the Hidden-Wing Thunder Rhinoceros Insects were born.

Evidently, there’s a tendency towards mutation, which greatly delighted Ye Jingcheng, possibly heralding another opportunity for the Thunder Rhinoceros Insects.

In addition to these observations, Ye Jingcheng also tested the strength of the lifebound Spirit Root of the peach wood and found its penetration power is no less than that of a Fourth Tier Middle Grade magical treasure spear.

It is also highly effective against Secret Technique type Spirit Shields or Spirit Arrays. This makes Ye Jingcheng eagerly anticipate the scene where an opponent defends with a Secret Technique or Array, only for peach wood to pierce through the heart with one thrust.

The spectacle promises to be extraordinary.

Finally, the Malachite Stone Spirit was somewhat disappointing. Although it can transform into a Stone Giant, it is essentially a fearless Stone Armor Giant with not-so-strong Earth Techniques. Fortunately, it holds promise with the Tier Four Body Refining Golden Milk.

Ye Jingcheng plans to arrange for the Stone Spirit to act as a shield for the Red Flame Fox in the future.

As for himself, naturally, he will take up the rear position.

After examining the three, Ye Jingcheng closed for seclusion once more.

Now, there are about twelve years remaining before the journey to the Earth Immortal Realm, and Ye Jingcheng dares not slack off, for it is the Earth Immortal Realm after all, where no preparation is excessive.

...

In the blink of an eye, ten years passed, and within the Grotto Heaven, the Five-Colored True Essence continuously enveloped Ye Jingcheng’s body, while in the sky, Five-Colored Spiritual Radiance began to gather.

All the spirit beasts couldn’t help but turn their gaze.

"Master is about to break through!" the peach wood first announced.

Having advanced to the Fourth Tier, it no longer felt that sense of urgency and was continuously patrolling the Grotto Heaven.

Firmly seeing itself as the chief steward of the Grotto Heaven, it comforted the Golden Quenching Essence Fruit, assigned tasks to distribute the Spiritual Radiance to the Stone Spirit, encouraged the Jade Ring Rat, and fawned over the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon and Red Flame Fox...

"Master is finally breaking through!" the rough voice of the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon also sounded.

Its massive head couldn’t help but calculate that it has been two spring seasons since Ye Jingcheng last distributed the Spirit Pill Treasure Light.

These two years, Ye Jingcheng has been practically in a state of total seclusion.

Although there are still Spirit Pills and Spirit Beast Meat, the absence of Treasure Light made it feel as if something was missing.

Now, with the phenomenon appearing, it naturally grew excited.

And it wasn’t the only spirit beast thinking this way; many looked eagerly towards the sky.

After an indeterminate amount of time, they saw the spiritual energy in the sky suddenly start to surge, countless Five-Colored Spiritual Light rushing towards Ye Jingcheng’s body.

Shortly afterward, a powerful Divine Sense spread like a tide, sweeping outward.

One zhang.

Ten zhang.

A hundred zhang, a thousand zhang, ten thousand zhang.

Finally reaching ninety-eight thousand zhang!

This marked Ye Jingcheng’s Divine Sense completely breaking through the Golden Core Peak, nearing the threshold of the Nascent Soul Divine Sense at one hundred thousand zhang.

"One hundred and fifty years old!" After experiencing the Divine Sense, Ye Jingcheng couldn’t help mumbling.

In cultivation years uncount, one seclusion, on and off again, had consumed over twenty years.

He even felt a vague illusion, as if the day he learned about the Earth Immortal Realm was just yesterday.

"Congratulations, Master, on breaking through to the Late Stage of Golden Core, Divinity Transformation is within reach..." the peach wood said quickly when it saw Ye Jingcheng regaining his senses, beginning to flatter him.

The other Wood Demon Stone Spirits followed suit.

Only a few spirit beasts awkwardly muttered congratulations, even just letting out a single beastly roar.

"Thank you all for your hard work!" Ye Jingcheng surveyed the surroundings, noticing that the Grotto Heaven had expanded greatly compared to before his breakthrough, with the spiritual medicines inside growing in an orderly manner.

Following Ye Jingcheng’s instructions, the peach wood had also used all of the Blood Spring Water on the Nine Curves Spirit Ginseng over the past ten years.

Now, the leaves of the Nine Curves Spirit Ginseng had grown to the size of a thumb, appearing very delightful.

Besides the changes in spiritual medicine, the Thunder Rhinoceros Insects had laid eggs once more, evidently having beneficiated from consuming the peach gum.

In the distance, he also noticed the Jade Ring Rat had entered seclusion.

Although the Jade Ring Rat consumed the Purple Mansion Jade Liquid he prepared, it was indeed a time for it to break through in cultivation.

Ye Jingcheng felt somewhat gratified seeing this.

The Jade Ring Rat was finally about to advance to Tier Three.

Although the time taken was quite long and many spirit pills and medicines were invested, achieving this breakthrough made it worthwhile.

Simultaneously, he found that the White-Browed Cyan Wolf and Roc Fish had both advanced to the Mid-stage of Fourth Tier.

This means he now has one Late Stage Fourth Tier spirit beast, six Mid-stage Fourth Tier spirit beasts, and with his own cultivation at the Late Stage of Golden Core, he felt confident that even if he wasn’t invincible among Golden Core Peak cultivators, he was surely among the top tier.

Entering the Earth Immortal Realm, as long as he doesn’t provoke Nascent Soul elders, the likelihood of encountering unexpected dangers is very low.

"Come and receive the Spirit Pills!" Having completed the breakthrough, feeling relaxed, Ye Jingcheng took out the Spirit Pill Treasure Light and began distributing it.

In doing so, he completely distributed all Spirit Pills and Treasure Light.

All the spirit beasts and Wood Demon Stone Spirits were unable to contain their jubilance.

After distribution, Ye Jingcheng then left the Grotto Heaven.

There are still two years left until the Earth Immortal Realm opens.

He wants to take a look at the current state of the family, and simultaneously, he wants to go to the Illusory Sand Forbidden Land to attempt finding the Earth Immortal Platform. Although he is ninety percent certain of finding the Earth Immortal Platform, there may still be some unforeseen crises.

Therefore, going to scout early is the best option.

Of course, he also wants to know whether the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor has emerged from seclusion, and whether it has broken through to the Middle Stage of Nascent Soul.

...

With another ten years having passed, the spiritual energy on Sha Huang Mountain has become more abundant, and there are more cultivators.

Countless halls stand upon the mountain peaks, exceptionally prosperous.

Ye Haiyan and Ye Jingnan also landed in the Assembly Hall.

At this moment, both of them are looking at a jade talisman, somewhat uncertain.

"Let’s wait for Jingcheng to come out of seclusion for this matter!" Ye Haiyan couldn’t help but say.

Due to years of infiltration, the core cultivators of Celestial Sand Sect have all been replaced with members of the Ye Clan, except for one hall, the Spirit Medicine Hall, which is still controlled by the original cultivators of Celestial Sand Sect.

This hall is only responsible for the spiritual fields and various spirit rice of Celestial Sand Sect.

Therefore, there is no need to be as cautious as before during discussions.

"Hmm, Uncle Haiyan, your nephew understands, but if we truly can open a small market on the border, the Ye Family’s profits could increase by at least thirty percent!" Ye Jingnan still voiced.

In recent years, the Ye Family in the Central Domain has shifted half of the financial pressure here.

However, it is still somewhat insufficient for the thriving Ye Family.

Unlike the Eastern Domain, the source of the Ye Family’s Purple Mansion Jade Liquid is still limited.

However, here, as long as there are spirit stones, one can purchase through countless teleportation arrays, which is another reason why Purple Mansion Jade Liquid Golden Pills are priced higher.

And so much Purple Mansion Jade Liquid naturally requires a substantial amount of spirit stones.

Moreover, they have inquired; it’s not that no one opens markets in Southern Wilderness Province.

For instance, Wangqing Prefecture and Tianshu Mansion have markets that are not controlled by the Righteous Sect.

The only issue is whether the Ye Family can withstand the retaliation from Jiayuan Prefecture.

Additionally, how the market should be structured.

Currently, there are two existing styles: the ordinary Tier Four Market, where profits are highest but it’s also most easily coveted and even disliked by the Righteous Sect.

The other style is organizing a temporary market on the border once a year, lasting ten days to a month. Such a market can’t even be criticized by the Righteous Sect, and the Ye Family can provide enough protection without worrying about theft by demon cultivators.

They have also discussed with other Golden Core cultivators from Xiaoshan Prefecture; if Celestial Sand Sect holds such a temporary market, they’re willing to send cultivators over.

But everything depends on Ye Jingcheng’s agreement.

After all, Ye Jingcheng’s reputation as the top Golden Core is becoming increasingly widespread, rendering explanations from Celestial Sand Sect’s cultivators useless.

"Don’t hold too much expectation; the family is preparing for more important matters!" Ye Haiyan said to Ye Jingnan.

Ye Haiyan valued Ye Jingnan, despite being from the Jing Generation, he is not very old, not yet a hundred years. He is a descendant born from later marriages in the Xing Generation.

His talent and family management are exceptional; having such ideas and sufficient preparation is naturally gratifying.

However, he’s also afraid the family has more considerations, and he’s letting Ye Jingnan prepare in advance.

"Preparing to open a temporary market?" Just as they were discussing, a figure appeared silently.

"Jingcheng!"

"Eleventh Brother!" The visitor was Ye Jingcheng, who had just broken through, arriving at the Assembly Hall upon coming out of seclusion, and hearing them discussing the temporary market.

"Yes, I hope Eleventh Brother will review it!" Ye Jingnan handed the jade talisman to Ye Jingcheng.

Ye Jingcheng glanced at it, finding the temporary market somewhat reminiscent of the Cyan Spirit Market night market.

Ye Jingcheng was naturally pleased. The current question is whether Mansion Master Xiao will approve.

But as long as the Earth Immortal Realm goes smoothly upon return, the two mansion masters will be on the same ship as him, so there’s no need to worry then.

"You can prepare it, but wait for me to come out!" Ye Jingcheng soon said.

This made Ye Jingnan exceedingly joyful.

"Rest assured, Eleventh Brother, I will certainly prepare well!" Ye Jingnan nodded vigorously.

Ye Jingcheng smiled.

"How is the current situation of the sect?" Ye Jingcheng continued to inquire.

Earlier, he had already acquired considerable information about the family through the spirit talisman jade talisman and clan token, only lacking information about the current state of Celestial Sand Sect in the Central Domain.

Over the years, Chu Yanqing has broken through, becoming the Ye Family’s fifth Golden Core, with Ye Jingyu and Ye Haige secluding themselves in preparation for breaking through to Purple Mansion Peak.

The Ye Family now has thirty-six in Purple Mansion, setting a new record for the Ye Family, with many Foundation Establishment cultivators also striving for Purple Mansion.

The only unfavorable news is that the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor has not come out of seclusion.

If the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor cannot come out before the Earth Immortal Realm opens, this time the Ye Family’s trip to the Earth Immortal Realm may have compromised safety and reduced gains.

"Over here, the restaurant, Pill Pavilion, and Array Pavilion businesses have tripled, and regarding sect cultivators, Huang Tiyun broke through to Purple Mansion but relinquished sect power, now focusing entirely on cultivation at Sha Huang Mountain, uninvolved in external matters. Xiao He is also in seclusion, with ninety percent of authority in the family’s hands..." Ye Jingnan began detailing.

After introducing the sect, he recounted some recent major events in Xiaoshan Prefecture.

Among them, Hehuan Sect and Zifu Sect have both seen the emergence of new Golden Core cultivators, hosting Golden Core ceremonies.

However, they are all Fake Pill cultivators.

Profound Puppet Sect is planning a Tier Four Spirit Puppet conference in a year.

They will sell many Tier Four and Tier Three Spirit Puppets then.

Ye Jingcheng listened mostly to confirm.

It’s not surprising, as many had been anticipated earlier.
