Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book Chapter 1398 - 994: Nine Heavens Dragon Sunflower, Immortal Ascension Jade

Within Turtle Valley, Ye Jingcheng’s figure didn’t appear until the next day.

The bright sunlight shone down from the sky, making it feel slightly dazzling.

Turtle Ancestor looked at Ye Jingcheng with slight solemnity and couldn’t help but ask:

"Is that stone still untouched?" Because of the array, and the nature of transmitted inheritance, Turtle Ancestor wasn’t aware of the matters of Ye Shen Valley.

"I dealt with it, but there’s no great secret." Ye Jingcheng hesitated, still not intending to reveal it to Turtle Ancestor.

He pondered for a day and finally decided only to tell Ye Xuecang, Ye Xuefan, Ye Haicheng, and a few other Golden Core clan members.

After all, this matter is too significant; ordinary clan members should remain unaware.

Though Turtle Ancestor is safe, its mouth is not tight.

"I guessed as much; I even slept on that stone. What mystery could it hold?" Turtle Ancestor apparently believed Ye Jingcheng’s words.

Seeing Ye Jingcheng about to leave, it finally requested quite a bit of treasure light.

Although there were no spirit pills, it knew that treasure light needed no refining.

In Turtle Ancestor’s consciousness, this was Ye Jingcheng’s unique spiritual body true essence, more of which would overflow, and withholding it was wasteful.

As Ye Jingcheng departed, Turtle Ancestor couldn’t help but mutter, thinking Ye Jingcheng might breakthrough, which would enhance the treasure light’s mystique!

However, the effect was about the same.

...

Upon leaving Turtle Valley, Ye Jingcheng visited the Treasure Pavilion next. Though he didn’t plan to immediately head to the Eastern Domain, he intended to prepare some spirit medicine. Once well-versed in the secret technique, he would begin alchemy, aiming to elevate his alchemy skill to tier five.

It was all to prepare for future Nascent Soul Pill refinement.

His current tier four spirit beasts, the Crimson Flame Fox and Golden Scale Beast, both at the tier four peak, had a significant chance of breaking through with the Nascent Soul Fruit or Nascent Soul Pill.

Additionally, Ye Jingcheng sought the advancement pill spirit medicine for the Golden-eyed Vermilion Bird, which was ready to consume the advancement pill.

The Treasure Pavilion was not far, and with Ye Jingcheng’s current speed, he arrived effortlessly.

The hall had been renovated again, looking somewhat unfamiliar.

The cultivator in charge of the Alchemy Pavilion wasn’t the familiar Ye Haiping but a new Qing-generation member of the Purple Mansion; upon inquiring, Ye Jingcheng learned.

The former elder of the Treasure Tower, Ye Haiping, had passed away thirteen years ago, according to clan members, and had visited his grotto heaven before his death to watch for a period.

Without descendants, Ye Haiping had transferred all his treasures and residual contribution points to Ye Qingnian.

This left Ye Jingcheng silently standing in place.

After a while, Ye Jingcheng gathered spirit medicine, then went to the ancestral hall to pay respects before returning to his grotto heaven.

Within his grotto heaven, both Ye Qingnian and Ye Qingfeng were present. Knowing Ye Jingcheng had emerged from seclusion, they waited there.

"Congratulations, Father!" They both spoke in unison.

Ye Jingcheng observed his children, noting Ye Qingnian’s childishness had diminished significantly, showing great maturity, while Ye Qingfeng remained as lively as ever.

He speculated internally that Ye Qingnian might have begun managing some family affairs, whereas Ye Qingfeng had not.

"Sit down!" Ye Jingcheng sat before the courtyard, as Chu Yanqing brought out spirit tea and spirit fruit.

Upon Ye Jingcheng’s words, Ye Qingfeng immediately sat down, yet Ye Qingnian remained standing.

"Father, I lost the grand competition, so I should stand." Ye Qingnian spoke as Ye Jingcheng glanced over.

The family Purple Mansion competition results were out; with Ye Yunxi of Purple Mansion Peak and Ye Jing Hu in seclusion for Golden Core breakthroughs, Ye Xuefu, Ye Haifei, and Ye Haiyu in the Eastern Domain, Yan Kingdom, and Ye Haiyan and Ye Xingliu in the Central Domain.

Thus, Ye Qingfeng at the Purple Mansion Middle Stage peak ultimately claimed first in the Purple Mansion.

Second was Ye Yunxuan, third Ye Qingnian, and fourth Ye Qingwen.

"No need to stand; without spirit beasts, your spirit body lacks Ye Yunxuan’s advantage. Losing is normal, but you’ll need to learn from this and fight back next time." Ye Jingcheng did not blame Ye Qingnian.

Ye Yunxuan was considered the most surprising cultivator in the Ye family, with his Postnatal Profound Talisman Spirit Body allowing him to engrave spirit talismans internally, vastly outperforming peers in terms of true essence refinement and recovery.

Especially after breaking through the Purple Mansion, Ye Yunxuan mastered numerous mysterious earth spirit talismans, engraving them in his body, effectively gaining instant secret techniques, making his physique comparable to many body cultivators.

Given these sparring conditions, Ye Qingnian couldn’t exert full strength; with weaker true essence, defeat was inevitable.

The only regret was that, for now, only Ye Yunxuan could cultivate the Celestial Talisman Profound Body Spiritual Manual in the Ye family.

"How is your spirit beast’s cultivation progressing?" Ye Jingcheng then asked.

"Silver Moon Flood Dragon is at the Late Stage Third Tier, Rock Flood Dragon at the Mid-stage Third Tier." Ye Qingnian answered earnestly.

Before Ye Jingcheng’s seclusion, he had refined advancement pills for the Rock Python and Silver Moon Flood Dragon; hence the Rock Python had transformed into a Flood Dragon.

Seeing their progress, Ye Jingcheng nodded in approval.

"Father, my spirit beast has reached the Tier Three Peak." Upon seeing the spirit beast comparison, Ye Qingfeng excitedly spoke.

She then released the Black Crow.

After decades of growth, the once small Black Crow had grown into a giant with a wingspan over one and a half zhang.

On its forehead burned fierce black flames, resembling a crown of fire.

These black flames, unlike the Three-eyed Demon King’s soul flames, belonged to the Yin Attribute black flames, difficult to counter even with water attribute magic.

"Father, here are the spirit medicine I gathered and some of the magical treasures I refined." Ye Qingfeng continued, presenting two storage bags.

Ye Qingfeng’s alchemy talent was average, but she excelled in artifact refining.

Listening to this, Ye Jingcheng felt pleasantly surprised.

Yet, examining the storage bags, he couldn’t help but frown.

Because, he discovered in the storage bag many spirit medicines, a lot of which were rare spirit medicines. Some were even for his Tier Five Advancement Pill, and there was also an eight-hundred-year-old Nine Heavens Dragon Sunflower, which was the main ingredient for the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor’s Tier Five Advancement Pill.

This gave him quite a scare.

"Have you been to the Celestial Abyss Mountain Pass?" Ye Jingcheng’s expression tightened.

"Father, you misunderstood, all of these were given by that Great Crowned Phoenix!" Ye Qingfeng hurriedly explained.

He then narrated everything in detail.

It turns out, over the years, Ye Qingfeng had been at Yuanling Oasis, continuously refining magical treasures.

She not only gave that Bald Phoenix a spirit pill but also refined a magical treasure for it. As for these spirit medicines, they were all given by that mysterious Bald Phoenix.

Because the Bald Phoenix is no longer bald, and its crown is quite large, Ye Qingfeng named it Great Crowned Phoenix.

"Father, after I finally gave it your Black Crow Pill, it hasn’t appeared for a dozen years." Ye Qingfeng said with some regret.

At that time, many Black Crow Pills were made, and Ye Jingcheng gave Ye Qingfeng one more than needed.

"You didn’t contract with that Great Crowned Phoenix, did you?" Ye Jingcheng asked again.

"No, but that Great Crowned Phoenix wants to contract with me!" Ye Qingfeng quickly replied.

Ye Jingcheng had advised her before, so she naturally wouldn’t contract with it.

"Hmm, remember not to contract, and don’t bring it out of the Celestial Departure Grassland. Also, treat Black Crow better in its presence." Ye Jingcheng let out a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

This Great Crowned Phoenix certainly has a significant background, and if the Ye Family can forge a connection, it would be advantageous.

He had more plans than just giving the Black Crow Pill, partly as a way to reach the Great Crowned Phoenix through Ye Qingfeng.

Ye Jingcheng then looked at the magical treasures and was surprised to find there were three Tier Three Top-Grade Magical Treasures.

Moreover, all three were unusual magical treasures: one was a lamp-shaped treasure, one was a jade-shaped treasure, and the other was a red umbrella treasure.

The similarity lies in that all three treasures had some firelight, indicating they hadn’t been refined for too long.

"Did you refine all of these?" Ye Jingcheng couldn’t help but ask.

Ye Qingfeng nodded repeatedly.

Her cultivation remained at the peak of the Purple Mansion’s Middle Stage because she had been studying artifact refining during this period.

"Father, this Jade Treasure is a gift for you. Mother gave you Xingyu to protect you, and Feng’Er is giving you the Immortal Ascension Jade, wishing you early entry into the Immortal Dao." Ye Qingfeng said repeatedly.

Then she pointed to the Ancient Lamp Treasure and Red Umbrella Treasure.

"This is for Nian’Er, as the elder sister, this is my Purple Mansion Gift to him. As for the Red Umbrella, it’s for mother, for her protection." Ye Qingfeng introduced them one by one.

Chu Yanqing was naturally very delighted, and Ye Qingnian couldn’t help but pout.

Clearly, he was the elder brother.

However, he didn’t argue; Ye Qingfeng liked it this way, so it remained so.

"Not bad!" Ye Jingcheng couldn’t help but praise them both.

Then he took out two Jade Talismans.

He handed them to Ye Qingfeng and Chu Yanqing.

"These two cultivation techniques were obtained in the Earth Immortal Realm, you can revise your cultivation, they can be cultivated to the Late Stage of Nascent Soul." Ye Jingcheng said.

These two cultivation techniques were naturally two from the Ye Family’s Ye Shen Valley, capable of being cultivated to Refining Void.

Ye Jingcheng did not consider himself a saint and naturally had some personal motives.

Moreover, his wife had a Sunflower Water Spirit Body, and his daughter had a Red Phoenix Spirit Body, making them eligible to cultivate the best techniques.

"This... Can I switch cultivation?" Looking at the techniques, Chu Yanqing was surprised.

Because the technique not only included methods for refining a Lifebound Magical Treasure, but also each tier included three secret techniques, it allowed condensation of Heavy Water in terms of refining, and in terms of support, it allowed aggregation of a Water Avatar...

Most cultivation techniques lean towards one side, but the technique before them did not; it was an all-around cultivation technique, allowing her to cultivate.

"Of course you can, but according to family rules, the Heavenly Dao Oath must still be made." Ye Jingcheng nodded and then looked at Ye Qingfeng.

"Feng’Er, after switching, you need to focus on cultivation."

Ye Qingfeng nodded.

Ye Jingcheng finally looked at Ye Qingnian.

Ye Qingnian’s face did not show disappointment; instead, he was happy that Ye Qingfeng and Chu Yanqing received cultivation techniques, which made Ye Jingcheng nod.

He then spoke:

"Nian’Er, you have the Three-Flower Gathering Spirit Body, and these three techniques mainly focus on water, fire, and earth. Check if you want to choose them, or I can complete your Gold Wood Spirit Root, allowing you to cultivate my technique."

"Father, I think, since I am the Postnatal Spirit Body of the Three Flowers, cultivating in the three-attribute techniques is enough."

"Cultivators ultimately rely on themselves, not on cultivation techniques, so I won’t feel wronged." Ye Qingnian spoke confidently.

Ye Jingcheng nodded; a cultivator’s path is their own choice, he would not force him. Ye Qingnian’s clarity made him happy.

Next, the four also joined in consuming Spiritual Cuisine.

After all, they hadn’t been together for thirty-plus years, and it was essential to cherish the days not spent in seclusion.

A meal of Spiritual Cuisine brought Ye Jingcheng a unique sense of warmth.

The four remained in the courtyard until dusk, as the amber residue of the setting sun settled at the edge of the desert, covering Celestial Shadow Peak and the desert in a layer of yellow.

Ye Qingnian and Ye Qingfeng bid farewell and left, while Ye Jingcheng exchanged some words with Chu Yanqing before entering the Grotto Heaven.

So many years without tending to them, spirit medicines, spirit fruits, spirit beasts, wood demons, and even the Grotto Heaven itself needed his careful inspection.
