Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

The light from the Earth Immortal Platform faded away, and only then did the glow of the Moonlight Stone in the hall softly emerge.

At that moment, all cultivators lined up heading towards the desk inside the pavilion.

Though it was said to be an appraisal of treasures and spiritual herbs, it was actually the sect inspecting treasures, extracting the sect’s share.

Even cultivators from the sect needed to undergo the sect’s inspection.

It’s just that the Golden Core cultivators of the Righteous Sect had a smaller deduction, and the sect would offer extra rewards based on the quantity of treasures.

Ye Jingcheng also placed his treasures in a storage bag.

Although Xu Huai True Monarch had already told him that nothing needed to be deducted, treasures still had to pass through the sect.

This was the rule, even people like Xu Huai True Monarch had to comply.

Soon, all cultivators formed two lines, heading towards the pavilion.

Among them was Feng Daoran, who was still greeting Ye Jingcheng at that moment, to which Ye Jingcheng responded with a slight smile.

Ye Jingcheng glanced at the rest of the cultivators, a total of one hundred and thirteen people, most of whom were from the Righteous Sect.

And it is worth noting that there were as many as two hundred eighty people going in, nearly three hundred.

This loss ratio was considerable.

Soon, it was Ye Jingcheng’s turn, he handed over a masterless storage bag, the latter glanced at it, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

After all, Ye Jingcheng this time, having been seen coming from the Upper Immortal Realm, had collected quite a few treasures.

He took three Tier Five Spiritual Medicines, including the five-thousand-year-old Celestial Wood He Shouwu.

He took eighteen Tier Four Spiritual Medicines, but due to pill refining, he gained another eleven, making a total of twenty-nine.

Additionally, there were several Spirit Pills, a Jade Talisman inheritance, and several Tier Four Spiritual Treasures.

These treasure inheritances were what Ye Jingcheng gained from slaying that Middle Stage Golden Core cultivator of the Celestial Demon Sect.

This was his harvest in front of all the Righteous Sect, and he would certainly not leave anything out.

”Well done, these are some valuable treasures, your contribution to the sect is notable, this time the sect will not take your spiritual medicines, but would you consider exchanging the Tier Five Celestial Wood He Shouwu, five-tier Cyan Mist Grass, and five-tier White Jade Flower with the sect for treasures?”

”These three treasures can be exchanged for two Tier Four High-Grade Spiritual Treasures, or one Tier Four Top-Grade Magical Treasure, or two Gold Condensing Pills.” The cultivator collecting the spiritual medicines raised an eyebrow and looked toward Ye Jingcheng.

His tone didn’t carry a commanding tone, rather it was full of inquiry, as if Ye Jingcheng could decline if he wished.

”Exchange for the two Gold Condensing Pills then!” Ye Jingcheng had prepared himself, though he hadn’t expected to be able to exchange for two Gold Condensing Pills.

Ye Jingcheng would not keep the Tier Five Spiritual Medicines, after all, he was only at the Late Stage of the Golden Core, and his breakthrough to Nascent Soul would still take a very long time; harboring Tier Five Spiritual Medicines would offend the sect and was not very reasonable.

As for the treasures, the Ye Family was not lacking them, and neither was he, so naturally exchanging for Gold Condensing Pills was preferable.

Though the Ye Family was already abundant with Gold Condensing Pills and Gold Condensing Fruits, no one would disdain having more of such treasures.

The cultivator nodded, and not long after, he took away three jade boxes and gave Ye Jingcheng two jade bottles.

Inside each jade bottle was one Gold Condensing Pill.

After storing away the Gold Condensing Pills, Ye Jingcheng exhaled deeply, standing beside the pavilion.

At this moment, quite a few cultivators looked on at Ye Jingcheng with envy.

After all, Ye Jingcheng not only performed outstandingly within the Earth Immortal Realm, but he was also a Tier Four Top-grade Alchemist, his deeds had already spread far and wide within the Earth Immortal Realm.

Many Golden Core cultivators couldn’t help but start conversations with Ye Jingcheng.

Each introduced their sect and place of origin.

Ye Jingcheng responded politely to each, expressing that he would visit when time permitted.

These Golden Core cultivators hailed from the various states within the Righteous Sect’s domain, including Golden Core Peak cultivators and Nascent Soul Sects.

Moreover, a few of them had sought him out for pill refinement in the Earth Immortal Realm.

These cultivators all praised Ye Jingcheng’s alchemy skills, also indicating that they would continue seeking Ye Jingcheng for Spirit Pill refining in the future.

Ye Jingcheng naturally replied with a smile and exchanged pleasantries.

After about half an hour, the collection of treasures was completely finished, and everyone gathered on the other side of the hall, where the Moonlight Stones were more plentiful and brighter.

Beneath their feet, numerous array patterns were delineated, forming a teleportation array, activated as spirit stones were placed onto the teleportation platform.

The light from the array began to interweave, and soon the teleportation aura manifested, enveloping everyone.

When the teleportation light dissipated, everyone found themselves on top of Celestial Capital Prefecture in the Central Emperor Province.

Here, the constraints of the Righteous Sect were fully lifted, everyone could freely leave, whether to remain in Celestial Capital Prefecture or depart directly, it was up to them.

Of course, most cultivators at this moment only thought about heading to the teleportation array to return to their respective mansion lands.

With treasures abundant on each person, it was natural not to linger.

Although Celestial Capital Prefecture in the Central Emperor Province was unlikely to encounter problems, at this moment, nothing felt safer than their own domain.

”Shall we return to Southern Wilderness Province together?” Mansion Master Xiao and Prince Wang also looked at Ye Jingcheng.

Neither of the two intended to stay in the Central Emperor Province, similarly planning to return directly to Southern Wilderness Province.

Hence, the upcoming journey became rather simple, teleportation array transmissions and changing arrays to continue teleportation.

Within two hours, as the teleportation light flashed again, the familiar sight of Xiaoshan lay before Ye Jingcheng.

Ye Jingcheng, Mansion Master Xiao, and two Golden Core cultivators from Profound Puppet Sect stepped out from the teleportation array, exchanging knowing smiles.

After some final pleasantries, they dispersed.

Ye Jingcheng entered Xiaoshan Market, beholding the bustling crowd, and in the distance, Celestial Dust Tavern, Celestial Sand Treasure Pavilion, along with other Ye Family-managed shops, feeling quite gratified.

His eyes were filled with hopeful spiritual light.

This expedition to the Earth Immortal Realm, the Ye Family gained on the surface only spiritual herbs and treasures, but in reality, they earned a reputation.

Previously, the fame of Master Qianchen of Celestial Sand Sect was only well-known in Southern Wilderness Province; now, not just Southern Wilderness Province, potentially the entire Central Domain knew of his prestige.

The Ye Family’s future plans to promote Celestial Sand Sect to other state mansions would no longer be as challenging as before, and it wouldn’t require re-establishing their authority.

While contemplating, Ye Jingcheng arrived at Celestial Sand Treasure Pavilion.

In front of the pavilion, several Ye Family members were showing treasures to some cultivators.

Upon seeing Ye Jingcheng’s figure, all appeared incredibly pleased.

Among them, Ye Jingnan and Ye Xingliu descended from upstairs.

The expressions of both were joyful yet tinged with some sorrow.

Ye Jingcheng instantly understood that something must have happened.

Following Ye Xingliu, he headed to the room on the fourth floor; once the array was set up, Ye Xingliu spoke:

”Jingcheng, Celestial Sand Sect was attacked. Xueqing Old Demon from Blood Spear Sect took advantage of your absence and came to raid us. Fortunately, Uncle Haiyan was alert and had Ye Jingnan bring the teleportation array to Xiaoshan Market, or the consequences would have been unimaginable. But even so, the losses were substantial...” Ye Xingliu recounted the details of Blood Spear Sect.

Including some of his speculations.

Such as the Black and White Order, Hundred Beasts Sect, etc.

”Hmm, I’m aware of this!” Ye Jingcheng felt extremely troubled.

In the Earth Immortal Realm, he was also chased by a Golden Core cultivator from Blood Spear Sect; when he wanted to slay the pursuer, it was already somewhat late, as the opponent abandoned treasures and storage bags, leaving only magical treasures to escape.

Now he finally understood why the opponent, a Golden Core Peak cultivator, under such circumstances, would chase him, an individual with three spirit beasts at the Late Stage of Golden Core.

Evidently, the opponent had decided on a plan to silence him permanently within the Earth Immortal Realm.

”Third Uncle, it may require your continued investigation into Blood Spear Sect; finding an opportunity in some time!” Ye Jingcheng stated.

He’s not unwilling to take immediate action against Blood Spear Sect, but he wished to wait until the Dream-Devouring Worm completes its advancement and breakthrough before acting, thereby conducting a soul search and eliminating future threats.

Moreover, the cultivator was too troublesome, also needing to use the Yin Yang Chessboard Bead to trap them within an array, preventing them from utilizing those peculiar methods of escape again.

”By the way, Jingcheng, we have acquired the Chenjing Jade; however, Haisheng has perished, and also, issues have arisen over in Desert Sea...”
