Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book Chapter 1558 - 1131: 5 Years, Treasure Completed

Tianshu Mansion, Liu Hong Mountain. This was the Spirit Mountain of the Purple Mansion Clan, the Hong Family.

Within Tianshu Mansion, the Hong Family had been one of the most prominent clans in the past century. Despite having been promoted to a Purple Mansion Clan for less than a hundred years, they already had four Purple Mansion Cultivators and dozens of Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

What made them even more respected was the fact that the Hong Family produced an abundance of Artifact Refining Masters.

The Spirit Mountain they occupied was built upon an active volcano, keeping the entire peak as warm as spring year-round. Even when other Spirit Peaks were sealed off by heavy snow, Liu Hong Mountain remained bustling with activity and heat.

Naturally, due to the Hong Family’s rise, this time, they had been called upon to dispatch two Purple Mansion Cultivators to Xiaoshan Prefecture to defend against Demon Cultivators.

Consequently, the Mountain Protection Array of the Hong Family’s Spirit Mountain was operating at maximum capacity.

On this day, the sky was gloomy as two figures flew over.

These two figures were dressed as Loose Cultivators and wore anxious expressions.

They then spoke:

"Elder Hong, something terrible has happened!

"Evil Cultivators are attacking, and the young master of the Rong Family is trapped. We hope that the elders of the Hong Family can lend a hand to save him."

"My Hong Family has already sealed our mountain. I suggest you two look elsewhere for help." A stern voice rang out from within the mountain gate, its tone of refusal evident.

"Elder Hong, could you help us contact Master Lei Hu and Fairy Yunxi, who are currently at the height of their power? Those two can definitely save the Rong Family’s young master. When the time comes, the Rong Family will surely reward you handsomely."

The Shanyuan Rong Family was also a prominent clan in Tianshu Mansion. They were an established Golden Core Clan, and their influence in Tianshu Mansion was roughly on par with the Profound Origin Sect.

However, the people inside the mountain gate gave no reply.

The two men immediately grew extremely anxious and took out two Sound Transmission Talismans, releasing them into the distance.

Seeing the Sound Transmission Talismans, a junior disciple inside the mountain gate hesitated. He looked toward the eldest Ancestor Hong Qi, only to see the latter shake his head and shoot out two flaming arrows, piercing the two talismans.

The moment the two talismans were pierced, they suddenly transformed from Sound Transmission Talismans into Blood Talismans. In the next moment, they completely dispersed, seeping into the Array.

"This...!" Those junior disciples were instantly shocked.

But Ancestor Hong Qi showed no joy at having guessed correctly. Instead, he repeatedly roared in anger:

"Enemy attack!

"Everyone, prepare to fight to the death!

"Also, send a Transmission to Tianshu Mansion, as well as Xiaoshan Prefecture and the Ye Family! Send a Transmission to the Rong Family as well; their Rong Family has a Teleportation Array, so they can get here faster!"

He continuously issued orders. Meanwhile, in front of the Array, the two figures dressed as Loose Cultivators dropped their act. They were shockingly two Evil Cultivators in disguise, and they began casting various types of Magic to bombard the Array.

Both of their Cultivations were in the Purple Mansion realm—one at the Middle Stage of Purple Mansion and the other at the Late Stage of Purple Mansion.

For the Hong Family in its prime, there naturally would be nothing to fear. But right now, the Hong Family only had two Purple Mansion Cultivators within their Spirit Mountain; the other two had gone to Xiaoshan Prefecture. Even with the Array, it would be extremely difficult to fend off the attackers!

"Everyone, follow me to defend against the enemy!" Ancestor Hong Qi shouted loudly.

Following Hong Qi’s command, over a hundred fully-armed Hong Family Cultivators flew outside.

Of course, as soon as these hundred-plus figures appeared, the two Cultivators in the distance were not angered, but instead rejoiced.

"See? Beneath this Hong Family’s mountain is an Upper-Grade Spirit Stone Vein. They modified a volcano just to cover this up.

"Otherwise, where would a newly promoted Purple Mansion Clan get so much confidence? Do you really think they rely solely on that Artifact Refining Skill?"

The slightly thinner Cultivator took out two Demon Banners and planted them in midair. In the next moment, dozens of Demon Corpses emerged from within the two Demon Banners.

Every single one of these Demon Corpses had an imposing aura comparable to the Foundation Establishment Peak. With dozens of them added together, even Hong Qi, who was at the Middle Stage of Purple Mansion, couldn’t help but feel incredibly fearful upon seeing them.

"You’re from the Corpse Armor Sect!"

"Old Daoist, you have quite a good eye! Then take a look and see which Sect I’m from!" the remaining fat Cultivator yelled at him.

In the next moment, two rays of evil light appeared. Even though Hong Qi was at the Middle Stage of Purple Mansion, after looking into the latter’s eyes, he bizarrely began walking forward like a walking corpse, even attempting to open the Array.

It was only because the remaining Purple Mansion Cultivator, Hong Haoxuan, hastily shouted "Ancestor" three times and finally struck Hong Qi on the head with his palm that the latter snapped out of it.

"An old demon from the Desire Union Sect! Haoxuan, arrange for the Core Disciples to execute the backup plan. Also, pass the news of the Upper-Grade Spirit Stone Vein to the Ye Family!"

"Ancestor, this..."

"There is no ’this’ anymore! Right now, only the Ye Family can save us. The enemy specifically named Fairy Yunxi and Master Lei Hu," Hong Qi said.

"Furthermore, even though the Rong Family is a Golden Core Clan with a Teleportation Array, they are worried about themselves and absolutely won’t have the heart to save us!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the latter immediately understood and quickly arranged for people to send out Transmissions.

After making the arrangements, he returned to the front of the mountain gate.

The Mountain Protection Array on the Spirit Mountain could indeed hold out for a long time. But as the Demon Corpses spat out Demon Flames, they could actually burn the Spirit Shield, causing gaps to start appearing in the entire Spirit Mountain’s Mountain Protection Array.

Moreover, after a few breaths of time, the two Demon Cultivators had turned into five, and all five of them were Purple Mansion Cultivators!

BOOM!

Accompanied by a loud crash, the Array shattered. Hong Qi and Hong Haoxuan looked on with angry eyes, but they were powerless to do anything.

"I’ll stay behind! You guys run!" Hong Qi looked at Hong Haoxuan and repeatedly urged.

However, before they could even prepare, black Array Discs began to appear all around them.

These Array Discs completely surrounded the entire Spirit Mountain.

"No need to feel sad. All of you can get on the road together and serve as the blood catalyst for the World Gate. You should be rejoicing!" the leading Demon Cultivator from the Desire Union Sect said with a continuous burst of loud laughter.

It was as if he could already see these Hong Family Cultivators wailing in sheer terror and looking utterly helpless.
