Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book
Chapter 185: Tricolor Cloud Deer
CHAPTER 185: CHAPTER 185: TRICOLOR CLOUD DEER
When Ye Jingcheng arrived at the Assembly Hall, there were already quite a few people present.
Ye Xingliu sat in the main seat, with Ye Haiyun and Ye Haiyi next to him.
Then came Ye Jingyu.
They were discussing matters regarding the acquisition of four Spirit Mountains.
"Third Uncle, Third Grandfather, Fourth Grandfather, Fourth Brother!" Ye Jingcheng greeted each of them.
These were courtesy greetings to the elders, but his Fourth Brother received a sibling’s greeting.
"Jingcheng, you’re just in time. Our clan has obtained four Spirit Mountains. Let’s discuss this together!" Ye Xingliu began.
The compensation from the Chen and Li families consisted of Spirit Mountains, not Medicine Mountains.
However, these Spirit Mountains all have Tier One High-Grade Spiritual Veins, making them quite valuable. Planting some premium Spirit Medicine or cultivating some Spirit Fruit Trees are both good options.
Even if worst comes to worst, growing Spirit Fields is not a bad choice.
The annual Spirit Rice, whether sold or kept for the family, represents a considerable income.
Moreover, the Ye Family has an advantage over other families in raising Spirit Beasts.
For instance, the Ye Family currently raises antelopes, Forest Pigs, Cyan Cloud Deer, and more.
These Spirit Mountains are not inside the Taihang Mountain Range, so there is no worry about being attacked by Demon Beasts. The only threat is from Tribulation Cultivators.
Over time, these Spirit Mountains provide endless benefits.
"As for these four Spirit Mountains, I believe the two close to our Ye Family should be under our control, while the remaining two further away could be entrusted to Qi Cultivation Clans. We have been isolated for a long time, and the Sect might become suspicious!" Ye Xingliu was the first to speak.
The following discussion centered on the allocation of the four Spirit Mountains.
Ultimately, one would be used for raising Forest Piglets, another for cultivating family Spirit Medicine and planting some Spirit Rice.
Ye Jingcheng wasn’t very interested in the allocation and arrangements of the Spirit Mountains.
So he just nodded and listened carefully.
Ye Jingyu did the same, with the main opinions still coming from Ye Xingliu, Ye Haiyi, and Ye Haiyun.
Both of these juniors were not well-versed in the state of the family power on Lingyun Peak.
Once the matters of the four Spirit Mountains were settled, it was time for Ye Jingcheng’s issue.
"Jingcheng, regarding your Celestial Soul Technique, after discussion, the family has decided to offer you thirty thousand Contribution Points. What do you think?" Ye Xingliu asked.
Upon hearing this, Ye Jingcheng’s face lit up with joy.
"Thank you, Third Uncle, I’m very satisfied with this!"
Ye Jingcheng seemed somewhat excited, having thought that twenty thousand Contribution Points would be the highest, as he could cultivate this Secret Technique himself by merely copying it.
Thirty thousand Contribution Points could be exchanged for two Foundation Establishment Pills.
"Of course, the family offering you thirty thousand Contribution Points requires you to make a promise not to sell it in external markets!" Ye Xingliu added.
Ye Jingcheng nodded, fully understanding this point.
In studying the family’s Secret Techniques, one must also make such promises and swear an oath.
Ye Jingcheng then immediately made a Heavenly Dao Oath.
"Patriarch, I’d like to exchange for the Three-Colored Cloud Deer..." Ye Jingcheng said.
He estimated that the Three-Colored Cloud Deer would be in Ye Xingliu’s possession at the moment.
After all, the Three-Colored Cloud Deer was brought back from Taihang Market and probably hadn’t been placed in the family’s Spirit Beast Valley yet.
"I knew you would exchange for it, but remember, the Beast Communication Pattern has a limit, even if contracted and later released, it’s the same!" Ye Xingliu handed the Spirit Beast Bag to Ye Jingcheng.
He also reminded Ye Jingcheng.
He knew the size of Ye Jingcheng’s Beast Communication Pattern, so he understood Ye Jingcheng’s limitations.
He was reminding Ye Jingcheng not to communicate with any more Spirit Beasts.
Otherwise, when his cultivation levels up and the Spirit Beasts’ strength increases, Ye Jingcheng won’t be able to utilize the Spiritual Power of the four beasts simultaneously.
"Thank you, Third Uncle, I’ll keep it in mind!" Ye Jingcheng nodded, acknowledging it, but inwardly indifferent.
He did not have just five-inch Beast Communication Patterns but a Seven-Inch Beast Pattern, theoretically allowing for another three rounds of Four-Phase Spirit Beasts.
His limitation was never Spirit Beasts, but his financial capacity.
Whether he could afford to support so many Spirit Beasts.
"By the way, your Golden Scale Beast is about to break through, right?" Ye Xingliu suddenly asked.
"Third Uncle, it’s still a bit short," Ye Jingcheng replied.
"I just happen to have the Inner Core of a Tier Two Earth Attribute Demon Beast here; eight thousand Contribution Points and it’s yours!" Ye Xingliu took out a Jade Box.
The presence of this Jade Box brought even more joy to Ye Jingcheng.
"Thank you, Third Uncle!"
"No need to be so formal. You’ve already achieved Foundation Establishment, and gaining more strength will only make the family stronger!"
"Also, as you’ve seen, Foundation Establishment isn’t your limit, so keep working hard!" Ye Xingliu added.
Ye Jingcheng nodded, then also left the Assembly Hall, followed by Ye Jingyu.
The latter looked at Ye Jingcheng with a hint of envy.
Clearly, he knew what kind of Cultivation Technique Ye Jingcheng practiced.
He was also aware that the Three-Colored Cloud Deer was merely shown on Ye Jingcheng’s Clan Token.
"Thank you, Fourth Brother, this is a bottle of Spirit Cultivation Pill. I hope you don’t consider the pill’s quality too poor!" Ye Jingcheng said.
This time, he owed obtaining the Black Wood Coffin entirely to Ye Jingyu.
At Sha Yun Mountain, it was also Ye Jingyu who helped him slay the Black Water Python.
Moreover, Ye Jingyu’s Flying Cloud Leopard had also reached the Late Stage of First Tier, nearing a breakthrough to Tier Two.
That’s why he brought out Spirit Cultivation Pills.
Among these Spirit Cultivation Pills, he refined them himself, using a special Spiritual Enhancement Secret Technique.
So most of them had Pill Fragrance, and two even had Pill Patterns.
"Jingcheng, this quality isn’t poor, but Fourth Brother can’t accept it without merit!" Ye Jingyu repeatedly said with some bitter smile.
"Fourth Brother, in time, I’ll probably need your help in exploring the Taihang Mountain Range!" Ye Jingcheng saw Ye Jingyu wanting to refuse and naturally didn’t accept, pressing back by mentioning his desire to contract spirit beasts.
Upon returning to his small courtyard,
As soon as he entered, Ye Jingcheng took out the Three-Colored Cloud Deer.
The Three-Colored Cloud Deer now appeared somewhat frail, seemingly not long after birth, with its pair of cloud wings looking a bit plump, and its antlers tinged with a reddish hue.
They hadn’t yet fully matured.
But despite this, the Spiritual Force of the Three-Colored Cloud Deer was not lacking.
Ye Jingcheng was curious about any special talents this Three-Colored Cloud Deer might possess.
However, the deer currently viewed him with a wary eye, growling lowly.
It seemed to be a rather spirited buck.
Ye Jingcheng smiled slightly and reached out his hand.
At that time, the Golden Scale Beast had been the same, but under his Treasure Light, it soon submitted.
Ye Jingcheng gently stroked the head of the Three-Colored Cloud Deer, and as he infused it with Treasure Light, it immediately calmed down.
Its eyes looked at Ye Jingcheng with curiosity.
Feeling the warmth of the Treasure Light, its tensed hind legs began to relax.
As Ye Jingcheng infused some Treasure Light, he was a bit helpless because, owing to the healing, the Treasure Light had run out again.
Ye Jingcheng had no choice but to take out a Spirit Nourishing Pill.
However, he soon discovered that he was running low on Spirit Nourishing Pills.
After all, he had also fed Jade Ring Rats with them.
Thus, he had to refine more!
