Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Chapter 819: Chapter 587: Bloody Battle at Luoyang, Chang Sheng’s Suspicion (Double-Length, Please Vote)

On Luoyang Mountain, even though the sky darkened, the mine remained brightly lit.

The Flame Sun Crystal Ore is a Tier Two Spiritual Ore, capable of refining pill furnaces and various precious magical artifact materials. It’s highly circulated in Yanhui Commandery, and it’s precisely this crystal ore that has allowed the Xun Family to cultivate a large number of excellent artifact refiners over the decades.

This heritage will allow the Xun Family to endure for a long time.

After all, ore veins may deplete, but the vast number of artifact refiners will continue to grow with experience.

Naturally, the Xun Family’s defense of this place is extremely tight.

Xun Tai’an is in charge here; he’s at the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment and among the younger generation’s Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Xun Family.

His presence here isn’t due to being undervalued but rather because his talent is outstanding.

It’s well-known that the Flame Sun Crystal Ore in the mine must pass through his hands every half year.

The portion of loss within it is his best cultivation resource.

“Everyone hurry up a bit, the family has a big event coming up, we mustn’t delay!!” However, today, Xun Tai’an only felt a twitch in his eyelid.

He paced around inside the mine.

He also observed the guards at the entrance for a while, worried that someone might have infiltrated because in a few days, it would be time for the biannual ore vein transport.

If something happened now, not only would the Xun Family’s resources be lost, but he, as the steward, would have to bear an unimaginable responsibility.

This unease made him not even want to sneak into the depths of the mine to take any ore.

He walked out of the mine, gazing at the distant mountains and rivers, and even further away, the river.

In the Qinghe Four Commanderies, there are numerous rivers, most of which flow into the Cyan River.

Many demon beasts reside in the Cyan River, and naturally, hunting birds would often cry out at night.

But now, after nightfall, he surprisingly found that very few sounds were coming.

The brilliant night sky held few stars; everything was eerily silent.

He stepped to the highest point of the array, activated it, and also took out a special compass spiritual artifact.

This artifact monitors the surrounding array discs, usually concealed.

Only at critical times does he inspect them!

And without knowing until he checked, he saw numerous shadows appearing on the compass.

These shadows made no sound, their faces were even indistinct, and even divine sense couldn’t detect them.

“Enemy attack, enemy attack!” Xun Tai’an roared angrily!

The spirit shield on the entire Luoyang Mountain immediately lit up.

It resembled a fire phoenix rising to the sky.

This spiritual shadow ignites the entire night sky, like the sunset rays, overwhelmingly stunning.

Yet at this moment, one blood corpse after another charged up, continuously assaulting the array.

“It’s Wei Kingdom’s evil cultivators, damn it, don’t let the blood corpses approach!” Xun Tai’an shouted in fury!

Numerous cultivators rushed out of the mine.

At the same time, several sound transmission talismans flew out.

Ye Jingcheng remained extremely calm behind the refined corpses, watching the sound transmission talismans fly out.

He thought, the more that fly, the better.

However, after just three breaths, Ye Jingcheng began to cast spirit techniques, intercepting them with a spirit array.

It was as if he wasn’t aware, being discovered by the opponent, unable to continue the secretive ambush.

In front of Blood Corpse Peak, one after another exploded.

This scene caused Xun Tai’an of the Xun Family to hesitate.

These refined corpses were indeed too weak.

But at this moment, a figure appeared in the distance.

Striking towards the array.

His massive glazed hammer struck directly at the peak, and the terrifying glazed spiritual light made even Xun Tai’an briefly close his eyes.

It was simply too dazzling.

At the same time, he only felt the array shake, like a volcanic eruption, and the spirit shield shattered instantly.

“Late-Stage Foundation Establishment Body Cultivator!” Xun Tai’an was shocked once more, a talisman treasure in his hand also exposed.

Evidently, he had begun to activate the talisman treasure when the array started.

But Ye Jingcheng broke the array too quickly, first with a fierce swing of the glazed hammer, and second, Ye Jingcheng used an array-breaking talisman right after the spiritual glow.

This led Xun Tai’an to use his talisman treasure prematurely, causing trouble.

The talisman treasure is powerful, but it requires a considerable time to channel.

“Uncle Changping, delay him for ten breaths for me, once the talisman treasure is out, I will surely slay him!” Xun Tai’an roared furiously.

With this roar, among a dozen Qi Cultivators, suddenly an early-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator appeared, fully activating wood magic.

Gathering a Vajra Vine.

This sight made Ye Jingcheng take an extra look.

But it wasn’t because he was surprised the Xun Family concealed a Foundation Establishment, it was because the opponent used the same Vajra Vine he had used before.

Ye Jingcheng’s body, after the Spiritual Golden Scale Beast, was indeed at the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment, but he was the Purple Mansion, though he needed to restrain himself, he could still exhibit the extreme speed of the Late Stage.

He appeared like a ghost behind Xun Changping, at the same time, the glazed hammer shone again, turning into a five-colored hammer, crashing down.

Boom!

A substitution talisman rose, while the rest of the Qi Cultivators unleashed magic toward Ye Jingcheng overwhelmingly.

But suddenly, Ye Jingcheng’s entire body erupted in blood light, executing the Tri-Element Blood Escape.

His speed surged, dodging many artifacts and magic, shadow-like, appearing behind Xun Changping’s body.

“Very well, you made me waste so much blood qi; become a blood corpse for me!” Ye Jingcheng spoke viciously.

Simultaneously, his hand transformed into a claw, directly extracting the heart from Xun Changping’s chest.
