Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book Chapter 1401 - 997: Snowfall in the Desert, Jade Qilin’s Breakthrough

The sky was dark and drizzly, with a misty rain.

Yet, it somehow wasn’t annoying at all.

Before Celestial Shadow Peak, many cultivators soared into the sky, some to protect, others to spectate.

In an instant, countless rain-shielding spirit shields fell from above, appearing particularly grand.

After all, this was the first Golden Core of the Yun Generation from the Ye Family, the spectacle was indeed impressive, aside from the protection cultivators reserved by the Ye Family, most Yun Generation members had arrived.

It should be noted, the Qing Generation had yet to produce a Golden Core, but the Yun Generation was on the verge of it.

Those from the Qing Generation were not in the best of spirits at the moment.

They could only place their hopes on Ye Qingfeng and Ye Qingnian.

...

Dense spiritual energy continued to gather, with more and more water attribute aura in the sky.

Moreover, everyone began to feel a chill.

This coldness came abruptly and grew increasingly intense, surrounding everyone, unable to be dispelled.

Some Qi Cultivation Cultivators even had to activate cold-defying spirit shields or use warming spirit talismans.

"No, even Water Spirit Root cultivators wouldn’t have such phenomena!" Ye Haicheng shook his head repeatedly.

He gazed toward the peak of Celestial Shadow Peak, the source of the intense cold emanated from there.

"Uncle, do you mean..." Ye Xingxiao couldn’t help but ask.

As he asked, a trace of excitement emerged on his face.

Seeing Ye Haicheng nod, Ye Xingxiao became even more animated.

"You arrange for your Miscellaneous Hall members to set up cold-defying spirit shields over all spirit plants and spirit woods, and activate the arrays!" Ye Haicheng promptly announced.

He then transmitted to the Spirit Plant Hall and Pill Hall members to arrange special arrays.

If their suspicions were correct, and the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon was also breaking through, the cold would only become harsher, possibly leading to freezing rain, and practicing Qi Cultivation Race People and Immortal Seedlings might have to shelter within protective arrays.

As the Ye Family members swiftly took action, the entire Celestial Phoenix Oasis became bustling, with many cultivators flying around in the sky.

Conversely, there were fewer people watching Ye Yunxi’s breakthrough.

Only Ye Qingwen, Chu Yanqing, and Ye Qingnian remained observing, whereas Ye Qingfeng had already entered seclusion to break through the Late Stage of Purple Mansion.

As time passed, the cold indeed intensified, with ordinary plant woods now covered in ice crystals.

The sky’s raindrops turned to snow.

This scene astonished the mortals of the oasis.

In the Desert Sea, many mortals had never even seen snow before, so the sight of swirling goose-feather snow across the oasis was naturally spectacular.

The Ye Family cultivators became busier as they now needed to set up arrays in every mortal city and town.

Otherwise, heavy mortal losses could affect the future number of Immortal Seedlings of the Ye Family.

Fortunately, the Ye Family now had plenty of members and a sufficient reserve of array talismans.

In half a day, everything was arranged.

At this moment in front of Celestial Shadow Peak, Ye Yunxi’s aura finally broke through to Golden Core, a unique aura characteristic of Golden Core spreading out.

Thunder Tribulation followed swiftly.

"Yunxi, head to Second Tribulation Mountain!" Ye Haicheng also ordered.

With the growing number of Ye Family members and spirit beasts undergoing tribulation, the Ye Family had arranged two Tribulation Mountains.

One in the east, one in the west, to ensure that if two people underwent tribulation simultaneously, the Thunder Tribulation’s might would not be heightened as a result.

Ye Yunxi nodded; she too realized the water attribute aura was unusual, as well as the water attribute spiritual energy whirling towards the peak, signifying a breakthrough above larger than hers.

With the added cold, she inferred who was breaking through.

At this moment, a figure flew out from the void, also landing high in the sky.

As everyone focused their gaze, the figure was none other than Ye Jingcheng, who had been in seclusion.

However, the aura he emitted today was terrifyingly calm, compared to his previous aura which was exceptionally powerful.

Had they not known Ye Jingcheng had broken through to Nascent Soul, they might have thought he was just a mortal.

Moreover, looking into Ye Jingcheng’s eyes at this moment felt like gazing at the moon through the fog.

"Jingcheng, have you consolidated everything?" Ye Haicheng excitedly asked.

There had been considerable pressure on the Eastern Domain these two years; now with Ye Jingcheng emerging from seclusion and the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon about to break through, it was the Ye Family’s chance to counterattack.

The Ye Family was now a Nascent Soul Clan, yet being pressured by both Qinghe Sect and Celestial Corpse Sect, it naturally harbored some anger.

They had endured, waiting for Ye Jingcheng to solidify his strength.

"Great Grandfather, yes, I’ve consolidated it!" Ye Jingcheng nodded.

Indeed, not only had he consolidated his strength, he was now confident of defeating even Nascent Soul cultivators such as Zhang Zhiqiu and True Monarch Heiyu, and not just merely overcoming them.

He had refined the third layer of Blood Soul Bead’s Treasure Communication Technique and refined the three-layer Treasure Communication Technique of Holy Spirit Tower; furthermore, his physical body had broken through to Middle Stage Golden Core, and the Star Illusion Eye had substantially improved.

Significantly, his five Hidden Skill Divine Techniques had now merged with the previous Five Spirits Secret Technique; in terms of power, it was far superior to the previous standalone version.

Additionally, his Five Elements Divine Thunder could now be fully unleashed, unlike the previously struggled-to-activate Five-Finger Divine Thunder.

In terms of strength, even general Tier Five Thunder Attribute Magical Treasures might not compare, although the true essence consumption was considerable.

Of course, if it weren’t for the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon about to break through, Ye Jingcheng would have planned to master the newly acquired Secret Techniques before leaving seclusion.

But now, Ye Jingcheng was already confident that, with the Mid-stage Fifth Tier Earth Dragon Demon Emperor and the newly breakthrough Jade Qilin Flood Dragon, he could spar even with a Late Stage of Nascent Soul opponent.

"That’s good!" Ye Haicheng nodded, but didn’t inquire further, instead looking at the distant Ye Yunxi undergoing her breakthrough.

As Ye Yunxi had a Water Spirit Root, all her Secret Techniques were related to the water attribute.

Water Shield, Water Palace, and Water Dragon techniques were effortlessly conjured, and with the Ye Clan’s array, there were no major issues.

After more than half an hour, she successfully crossed the tribulation, and the Golden Core she condensed was a Top-Grade Golden Core, the best in the Ye Clan, next to Ye Jingcheng’s.

At this moment, Ye Yunxi was immensely joyful, repeatedly greeting all her elders.

"Great Ancestor, Ancestor Xue Liang, Eleventh Uncle, Eleventh Aunt..."

As a younger generation, she was genuinely somewhat troubled, for the densely floating figures in the sky might all be her elders.

"Congratulations!" Ye Jingcheng also smiled and took out a Magical Treasure to give to Ye Yunxi.

This treasure was a Tier Four Water Attribute Spirit Belt Magical Treasure.

He didn’t know where he got this treasure from, but it was perfect for giving Ye Yunxi as a gift.

Beside him, Chu Yanqing also took out a Spirit Jade Magical Treasure.

He too gifted it to Ye Yunxi.

Seeing Ye Jingcheng and Chu Yanqing starting to gift treasures, other ancestors and elders more or less started giving treasures too. Although they weren’t as precious as Ye Jingcheng’s, Ye Yunxi accepted them with great delight, her eyes curving into crescents, as if she were hosting a Golden Core ceremony.

No longer did she have any displeasure from the previous effort of greeting her elders continuously.

"Yunxi, you should continue to consolidate your cultivation. If a Golden Core ceremony is to be held, it can coincide with Jingcheng’s Nascent Soul ceremony," Ye Haicheng instructed further.

The weight of a Golden Core ceremony is naturally much less than that of a Nascent Soul ceremony. Holding it separately might overshadow the other, so he suggested this compromise.

Anticipating that, Ye Haicheng made it clear in advance, not wanting Ye Yunxi to mind.

But Ye Yunxi respected Ye Jingcheng and Chu Yanqing even more than her own grandfather, so she wouldn’t mind, nodding repeatedly.

"Great Ancestor, Yunxi’s breakthrough is nothing much, no need to trouble with a ceremony. When Eleventh Uncle’s ceremony is held, Yunxi will just have a few drinks to celebrate!" Ye Yunxi laughed.

With that said, she returned to her cave abode to start seclusion and consolidation.

Although Ye Yunxi’s breakthrough had ended, the cold Qi in the sky was growing heavier.

The snow fell heavier and heavier.

On Celestial Shadow Peak, huge masses of Spiritual Radiance were also accumulating, and within them, anomalies emerged.

From the cloud layers, a White Dragon occasionally broke through the clouds, then dived into the glow, its actions profound and mystical.

"Truly worthy of having True Dragon Bloodline!" Ye Jingcheng couldn’t help but marvel.

The spectacle was much stronger than the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor’s.

Moreover, as time passed, everyone felt an intensely oppressive aura.

The Spirit Beasts of the Beast Valley across the entire Celestial Phoenix Oasis all began to cry in unison, but the cries conveyed a sense of fear and trepidation.

"Arrange for the Sword Hall, Law Enforcement Hall, and Puppet Hall to continue going out for Demon Hunting!" Ye Haicheng instructed repeatedly on the side.

Compared to before, there were significantly more Sword Cultivators in the Ye Clan, and more Puppet Masters too.

Among them, the one most proficient in the Spirit Puppet techniques was Ye Haicheng.

Because Chu Yanqing had a very high talent in Artifact Refining, Ye Haicheng had long shifted to become a Spirit Puppet Master.

Now, as long as he had good materials, he was confident in refining Tier Four High-Grade Spirit Puppets.

Of course, because of the Ye Clan’s Beast Taming attribute, Ye Haicheng was even more assured in refining Beast Puppets.

Thus, two days passed.

The sky was dim and bleak, with heavy snowfall still ongoing.

"Roar!"

A thunderous Dragon roar was heard, and instantly, Spiritual Light dispersed violently, while the aura of a Tier Five Demon Emperor emanated everywhere.

The falling snow in the sky all transformed into ice crystals.

An expanse akin to the Profound Cold Domain unfolded.

This made even Ye Jingcheng’s expression change, something that the other Ye Clan members and the Spirit Mountain Spirit Medicine Garden could not withstand.

But fortunately, the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon still retained its sanity at the moment, and the Profound Cold Domain quickly dissipated, and the rain and snow in the sky vanished.

Only the increasingly thick dark clouds remained.

And at this moment, a Jade White Flood Dragon about two hundred feet long soared into the sky.

One of the dragon’s horns was starting to fork, while the other horn was a large bulge. Although the claws under its abdomen hadn’t increased, they became sharper and longer, and its scales were as bright as Moon Jade, with mystical Spirit Patterns flowing over them.

With its colossal fangs and fluttering dragon whiskers, the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon was grand and imposing at this moment.

It appeared much more majestic than the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor.

The clouds in the sky rolled violently, indicating the gathered Thunder Tribulation would not be weak.

"Roar!" However, at this moment, the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon flew up to Ye Jingcheng, opened its large mouth, revealing fierce fangs and a mouth full of saliva.

"Master, hungry!" For a moment, the unique majesty of the Jade Dragon collapsed in the hearts of many clan members.

Ye Jingcheng couldn’t help but feel exasperated - at such an important moment, it was still thinking about eating!

Of course, complaining in his mind was one thing, but Ye Jingcheng still took out the corpse of a Tier Four Demon King, prepared a Tier Five Spirit Pill, and infused a lot of Treasure Light for the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon, allowing it to head over to Tribulation Crossing Mountain to slowly digest and quietly await the arrival of the Fifth Tier Flood Dragon Thunder Tribulation.
