Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book Chapter 1339 - 942: Invulnerability, Golden Scale’s Thanks

The aura of the Golden-eyed Vermilion Bird was exceptionally powerful, its rolling sound waves echoed endlessly in this Secret Realm.

Though young, it was already over seven feet tall, its entire body muscles bulging, exuding a sense of beauty through strength.

Its pair of golden eyes were utterly captivating.

As if the emitted golden light could transform into sharp swords that harm.

"Roar!" The Vermilion Bird scratched its belly, picking up a heap of folds, its mouth moving up and down incessantly, clearly quite hungry.

However, the way it expressed its hunger was somewhat too fierce, its voice rolling like thunder, causing Ye Xuefan and Ye Xuecang to instinctively use Spiritual Techniques to shield their ears.

The Vermilion Bird’s gaze wandered around, yet it saw no food, only Ye Jingcheng, Ye Xuecang, and Ye Xuefan.

It looked with both fear and longing, evidently sensing the existence of a Soul Contract, knowing that Ye Jingcheng in front of it was its master.

If one looked more closely, they could see a trace of grievance in its golden eyes, although it was deeply hidden.

Ye Jingcheng took out the demon beast corpses he had prepared for his Spirit Beasts.

Seeing this, the Vermilion Bird’s eyes gleamed with desire.

When Ye Jingcheng brought it over, the Vermilion Bird clasped its fists, making a gesture of salute before accepting the demon beast meat and feasting on it.

"This Vermilion Bird isn’t lacking in Spiritual Wisdom; it must have been able to sense everything outside while in its sealed egg," passed Ye Xuecang to Ye Jingcheng via Transmission.

Ye Xuecang’s words hinted that this Vermilion Bird was somewhat dissatisfied with Ye Jingcheng.

Otherwise, when accepting the food, it wouldn’t have been such a casual gesture of salute.

Of course, it’s understandable; although this Spirit Beast is young, the years of sealing might have been extremely long.

"It seems the ancestors had quite a few methods for nurturing Spirit Beasts." Ye Jingcheng nodded, understanding that such methods surely enhanced the Vermilion Bird’s potential. Emerging at Fourth Tier right away, akin only to the pure-blooded Flood Dragon Demon Saint Descendants.

The only pity is that the Ye Family had lost their inheritance once. Otherwise, their Cultivation Techniques and Secret Techniques’ foundation would far surpass the current standards.

The Vermilion Bird quickly finished devouring and continued to look at Ye Jingcheng, but how could Ye Jingcheng continue to give? He intentionally gave just half a Tier Three Great Demon corpse to train this demon.

Although it was left by the family, this Spirit Beast hadn’t contributed as the Turtle Ancestor had.

At this moment, the Golden Scale Beast was also teleported out.

Holding a Thousand-Year Yellow Cloud Ganoderma in its mouth, this too was a Tier Five Spiritual Medicine, also used as the main ingredient in Tier Five Golden Scale Pills.

"Master, roar, to guard!" The Golden Scale Beast cautiously carrying the Yellow Cloud Ganoderma approached, circling around Ye Jingcheng, but soon noticed the Vermilion Bird.

The latter’s golden gaze was filled with a devouring look, undisguised.

This provoked the Golden Scale Beast, recalling the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon, naturally causing it to be furious.

The Jade Qilin Flood Dragon could eye it this way, but this white-furred monkey, it would not consent.

It raised its head, beneath the Qilin Horn, the eyes were filled with a deadly glare.

But after roaring, it looked at Ye Jingcheng, who nodded.

The Golden Scale Beast instantly launched an attack; terrifying yellow Light of Gravity fell on the Vermilion Bird.

However, to everyone’s surprise, the Vermilion Bird’s frosty white fur around it slightly moved, yet it wasn’t affected by any gravity.

It raised its fists, soared into the air, and with a violent sound, transformed into shadows striking forth.

Bang!

A massive Iron Fist slammed into the Earth Qilin Hall, sending it flying instantly.

Clashing instantly with the Golden Scale Beast, the two beasts engaged in a fierce battle, their punches and claws matched, fighting intensely.

Rumbling sounds were unceasing.

"That’s an Invulnerability Divine Technique, truly worthy of being a Vermilion Bird!" Ye Xuecang exclaimed in surprise.

This Invulnerability skill wasn’t absolute, but its resistance against binding-type Divine Techniques, and even various Five Elements magic, was immense. Unless the Cultivation was vastly superior, it couldn’t inflict much impact.

For Body Cultivators or Demon Beasts, this divine skill was terrifying aid.

No wonder this Vermilion Bird could have a terrifying reputation.

Without the advantage of gravity, even though the Golden Scale Beast was at the Middle Stage of Golden Core, it couldn’t gain an upper hand against the Vermilion Bird.

Fortunately, the Golden Scale Beast’s mastery over other magic was also extremely formidable.

One after another, Earth Qilin Halls suppressed the Vermilion Bird, showing a disadvantage this time.

In addition to occasionally appearing terrifying Earth Spikes and Luoyun giant rocks, countless scars had already fallen upon the Vermilion Bird.

However, just as Ye Jingcheng thought the Golden Scale Beast could win using the Earth Qilin Hall.

Only to see the Vermilion Bird leaping aside, pulling up a giant tree, its golden eyes covering, turning the tree into a golden stick, and kept smashing towards the Golden Scale Beast.

With this weapon, all advantages of the Earth Qilin Hall disappeared.

At this moment, it became evenly matched once again, the stone armor on the Golden Scale Beast’s body falling layer after layer.

In the end, it was still due to the Vermilion Bird’s insufficiency in True Essence, the golden light vanished, causing it to be pressed down once more by the Golden Scale Beast.

But the Vermilion Bird, with its fiery temperament, wouldn’t give in, no matter how severe its injuries, it continued striking against the Golden Scale Beast, unbothered by its own wounds.

"That’s enough, no need to fight anymore!" Ye Jingcheng spoke, also signaling the Golden Scale Beast to stop.

The Golden Scale Beast turned to Ye Jingcheng, for the first time not boasting, nor ridiculing the opponent, this Vermilion Bird had earned its respect, even transmitting a sense of gratitude.

It was very grateful to its master for finding this sparring partner for it.

This sparring partner, in its opinion, was preferable even to the combination of the Golden Falcon and the Six-Colored Cloud Deer White-Browed Cyan Wolf.

"Master, with your care, roar, I will definitely defeat the White-Skinned Snake!" The Golden Scale Beast was extremely excited.

Ye Jingcheng felt the Golden Scale Beast’s thoughts and couldn’t help but be amused and exasperated at the same time.

But thinking about the strength of the Vermilion Bird, Ye Jingcheng was also indescribably delighted.

Speaking of which, among his spirit beasts, the one that seemed slightly lacking now was the Golden Falcon, and this Vermilion Bird was just the right addition.

Especially its Invulnerability Divine Techniques which would become even more frightening as its cultivation rose, posing a nightmare to all cultivators adept at Daoist skills but unskilled in body forging.

Ye Jingcheng took out a few Spirit Pills and handed them to the Vermilion Bird, then put it into the Spirit Beast Bag.

Currently, he didn’t have much time to tame the Vermilion Bird and planned to use a soul contract to control it just within the Secret Realm.

He then turned to the Beast Tower and looked at Ye Xuecang and Ye Xuefan.

"Jingcheng, you hold onto it for now, refine it when you have time; our opportunities aren’t sufficient." Ye Xuefan glanced at Ye Xuecang before also speaking up.

Ye Jingcheng nodded, not continuing to be modest. This time, the magical and spirit treasures that the Ye Family obtained would suffice even if the Ye Family had ten more Golden Core cultivators and three Nascent Soul cultivators.

After putting away the treasures, Ye Jingcheng also gave a considerable amount of Five-Colored Profound Water to Ye Xuecang.

The latter’s Lifebound Sword Embryo had been destroyed, and if it wasn’t properly consolidated, his future Dao path might break off.

One mustn’t be greedy with Spirit Water.

"Second Uncle, there’s a Seven-Star Nourishing Essence Fruit on the third hall atop Jiyuan Mountain, which should help your recovery greatly!" Ye Jingcheng said.

Ye Xuecang nodded repeatedly upon hearing this.

This Nourishing Essence Fruit is excellent for healing a cultivator and is a tier-five spirit fruit; he didn’t expect it to be here on Jiyuan Mountain.

"Second Uncle, I didn’t choose to let them retrieve the inheritance this time." Ye Jingcheng continued.

"No matter, the family already has plenty of inheritances. In the next three hundred years, our Ye Family can send thirty to forty people to retrieve the complete inheritance from Jiyuan Mountain." Ye Xuecang waved his hand indifferently, with Ye Xuefan nodding beside him.

Within the Secret Realm, spirit beasts were being transmitted out one by one, though some had failed to enter the mountaintop gate.

For instance, the Celestial Crow Ancient Tree Demon King, the early stage of Tier Four Black Crow Demon King, and the Malachite Demon King.

Of course, these demon kings were unfortunate and extremely regretful at this moment.

The remaining ones, however, eventually received their treasure medicine, and one by one, their faces finally improved.

"Jingcheng, should we set up an array to cover this Spirit Medicine Garden?" After Ye Xuecang also gathered the Spirit Medicine, Ye Jingcheng stored the spirit beasts in the Grotto Heaven, and Ye Xuefan asked.

Ye Jingcheng hesitated, considering that if they took all the spirit medicine and left no seedlings, it’d be hard for other cultivators to find out.

But taking them away would mean fewer spirit medicines for the Ye Family next time they came.

The spirit medicines here grow much faster than outside.

"Let’s not take them, nor set up any array. Jiyuan Mountain is not something ordinary people can think of reaching." Ye Jingcheng hesitated for a while before speaking.

He already told Ye Xuecang and Ye Xuefan about the Five-Colored Nourishing Dao Lotus.

The two were overjoyed.

After all, this meant that the Ye Family could almost steadily secure a tier-six Divinity Transformation treasure medicine every three hundred years when they returned.

"Then let’s not set it up. The arrays of Jiyuan Mountain are so strong, they can’t be hidden even if we want to!" Ye Xuefan nodded.

Deliberately hiding the Spirit Medicine Garden while not hiding Jiyuan Mountain’s inheritance seemed more like an attempt to cover up something.

Afterward, Ye Jingcheng also put Ye Xuecang into the Grotto Heaven.

Now, with the opening of the Earth Immortal Realm being over three months, Ye Jingcheng didn’t intend to visit the Heaven-Repairing Garden anymore, considering their injuries, and the demon kings’ deaths or critical condition. Exiting peacefully into the Upper Immortal Realm and staying in a Tier Four Secret Realm in the Lower Immortal Realm was safer.

When month six arrived, Ye Jingcheng could go to meet up with the Righteous Sect cultivators.

Although Ye Jingcheng could enter the Jade Celestial Heaven and have Ye Xuecang lead him out of the Earth Immortal Realm, the Ye Family still needed to expand in the Central Domain.

Especially with Mansion Master Wang and Mansion Master Xiao having potential to advance further, the Ye Family might even expand rapidly in Xiaoshan Prefecture.

Once the financial burden of the Ye Family is transferred to the Central Domain, even if problems arise in the Eastern Domain, the Ye Family would not worry.

Thinking of this, Ye Jingcheng couldn’t help but recall the situation in the Yan Kingdom and frowned deeply.

The current situation for the Ye Family wasn’t great; unless he could kill True Monarch Qinghe and True Monarch Beihai soon, the Ye Family would inevitably face the targeted cleansing from Qinghe Sect.

Of course, the best-case scenario remains that Tian Dao True Monarch finds the Longevity Elixir and extends his lifespan, allowing the Ye Family to continue its covert development relying on Tian Dao True Monarch.

After all, even Sikong Ziming had such profound strength and many hidden moves, so Qinghe and Beihai naturally had some tricks up their sleeves too.

Therefore, it’s best not to take that risk.

After checking one last time, Ye Jingcheng and Ye Xuefan left the Secret Realm. Both resumed their original appearances, and since Penglai Sect could see through them, they simply decided not to hide. Otherwise, using the Bone Transformation Pill would only draw unnecessary attention.

As they exited the Secret Realm, colorful Xia Yun Clouds rolled continuously across the sky, appearing particularly splendid.

Boom!

To their great shock, a terrifying wave of magical combat erupted from deep within the Earth Immortal Realm.

"It seems a Divinity Transformation treasure medicine has been born!" Ye Jingcheng looked up and couldn’t help but speculate. In the Earth Immortal Realm, a cultivator’s divine sense and eye power would be suppressed, making movements much smaller; to be so tremulous from this distance, it must be a top-grade Nascent Soul sect fighting for treasures, he guessed.
