Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Aside from the thirty heavily injured Black Armored Scorpions at the beginning, only over ten were lost later.

But the Thunder Rhinoceros Insects, afflicted by poison, numbered up to 130.

Ye Xueliang quickly retracted his Black Armored Scorpion Array.

“Your Thunder Rhinoceros Insects are well-arranged and well-nurtured, but they lack ferocity and flexibility!”

“The frontlines of the Array need to be fiercer, and you can’t use all the Thunder Light at once!”

“Moreover, Insects four or five years old shouldn’t reach this level!” Ye Xueliang stated.

Then, he took out a Jade Talisman and handed it to Ye Jingcheng.

Inside were insights into Insect Cultivation.

And there were several Spirit Insect Secret Techniques, with one called the Celestial Worm’s Fury Secret Technique, which Ye Jingcheng found most intriguing.

This Secret Technique could make Spirit Insects more fearless in a short period, and their Spiritual Power more violent.

“Thank you, Fifteenth Ancestor, for your guidance. Jingcheng will work harder!” Ye Jingcheng nodded earnestly.

In fact, his training of the Thunder Rhinoceros Insects had only been a little over half a year, intermittently on Dust Concealment Island, with the rest of the time spent in seclusion.

But in his view, possessing Treasure Light and continually feeding Spirit Cultivation Pills should have yielded better results.

Then Ye Jingcheng began healing the Spirit Insects one by one.

Among the elders of the Ye Clan, it was known that his Spiritual Power could heal Spirit Beasts.

So, there was no need to hide it now.

Yet even with practice, many Spirit Insects still died.

The Black Armored Scorpions lost over ten, while the Thunder Rhinoceros Insects lost only five or six.

This scene puzzled Ye Xueliang a bit.

However, he still spoke,

“Jingcheng, your 180 are still too many; you can trim them down to 120!”

Ye Jingcheng understood what Ye Xueliang meant.

It was about choosing the best among the strong.

This way, the power would be ensured, and even when breeding again, it would result in more superior Thunder Rhinoceros Insects.

A cultivator who is overly concerned with the death of Spirit Insects will not inspire fear, as the Insects they nurture will behave just as cautiously.

Ye Jingcheng had witnessed this before with the Golden Light Spirit-Slaying Locust.

“I heard you made an Insect Valley on Lingyun Peak. I have high hopes for you and hope to see more than three formidable insect swarms the next time I visit Lingyun Peak!” Ye Xueliang finally said.

He patted Ye Jingcheng’s shoulder, his eyes filled with gratification.

The same look that Ye Haiyun had given Ye Jingcheng when watching him practice alchemy.

“Alright!” Ye Jingcheng nodded.

By this time, dawn was near.

The island’s Spiritual Energy began to gather, evidently drawing in the Purple Qi from the rising east.

Those cultivating the Purple Qi Technique from the Purple Wood Sect weren’t the only ones; many included members of the Ye Clan Hidden Island.

As such grand movements appeared, Ye Xueliang began activating the Array.

Suddenly, each teleportation platform began to light up, and the central Spatial Jade emitted a brilliant light.

Ye Jingcheng held a Teleportation Talisman and stepped onto the platform.

In the next moment, as the dazzling white light enveloped Ye Jingcheng,

he only felt a sense of dizziness sweeping over him once more.

Moments later, when Ye Jingcheng opened his eyes, what met his gaze first wasn’t Ye Haicheng, nor the Earth Dragon Demon King, but a Tai Cang Turtle.

“Jingcheng, you rascal, what have you been up to in seclusion so long!” Turtle Ancestor grumbled, his displeasure evident.

His white beard puffed with every breath.

Then he stretched his turtle head towards Ye Jingcheng’s hand.

Clearly, he was after Ye Jingcheng’s Treasure Light.

Now, he no longer pestered Ye Jingcheng for Communication Beasts; just a bit of Treasure Light would suffice.

Ye Jingcheng sensed that the Tai Cang Turtle had reached the Middle Stage of Purple Mansion.

“I have to find Grandfather for something important first!” Ye Jingcheng replied.

At the teleportation array, without secure arrays, Ye Jingcheng naturally wouldn’t use the Treasure Light.

The teleportation array was still situated in a small valley pit within Earth Dragon Valley. Previously, there was concern about the Earth Dragon Demon King, but now that the Earth Dragon Demon King was a Spirit Beast of the Ye Clan, placing the teleportation array here was more secure.
