Beast Families: I Have an Illustrated Book of All Souls

Chapter 1264: Red Fox's Trace, Flame Dragon Heart Lotus (asking for monthly ticket)

The golden red sun was scorching the earth. Huge stones lay across the Gobi Desert. The dust storm was still howling in the distance.

The next moment, a sand lizard emerged from the ground again, its smart green eyes constantly looking around.

After it let out a strange cry, four figures appeared beside it.

The one who ranked first among them was none other than Wan Muchun from the Wan family. Behind Wan Muchun was the cautious Wan Chengjie, followed by Ye Qingnian and Ye Xuefan from the Ye family.

Actually, Ye Qingnian wanted to come alone, but Ye Xuefan was worried, so he followed him.

After all, Ye Xuefan is in the late Jindan stage, and has a fourth-level top-grade attainment in formation.

"There are some shallow green plants ahead. At first I thought it was an oasis, but as soon as I flew over, I could faintly hear the roar of beasts in the distance and see a grassland that is no less beautiful than the Tianli grassland." Wan Muchun introduced.

He already knew that the Ye family would hold a sword competition this time. No one from the Ye family would participate, so two people would be selected from the remaining people.

As for the kendo competition without the participation of the Ye family, he was still very confident. Only Wan Chengjie in front of him could give him some pressure.

Therefore, he has begun to think about how to maximize the benefits of the secret realm.

Moreover, this time he is following the Ye family into the secret realm. If he can gain Ye Qingnian's favor and obtain the Ye family's care, then he will have a greater chance of obtaining treasures.

In addition, if the development is good this time, the Ye family will have a Dan Ning treasure. It may not be his turn this time, but he is definitely the second possible one in the Wan family.

"Let's go and take a look!" Wan Chengjie looked at Ye Xuefan and nodded.

Their spiritual sense is not weak and they can see the outline of the grassland in the distance.

But the grassland is not small. From a distance, it does look like an oasis rather than a prairie or the mountains behind it.

Of course, the most important reason is that the grassland has been severely eroded by the desert.

Wan Muchun took out a spirit boat, but before they could jump on it.

Ye Qingnian then said:

"Take my spirit boat, get on quickly." The spirit boat that Ye Qingnian took out was not any other spirit boat, but the Xuanguan Boat that Ye Jingcheng once owned.

This spirit boat is a top-grade fourth-grade spirit boat. If the spirit sails are activated, the speed can be even faster.

But Ye Qingnian still restrained himself a little.

But he thought of a problem. Now the Ye family does not have the ability to popularize the teleportation array in the sand sea. Maybe they can sell some high-level spirit boats to these affiliated families.

In this way they can find treasures better. He took a look and found that Wan Muchun's spirit boat was only a third-level medium-quality spirit boat, and its defense was slightly unique, but its speed was average.

What he just said was quite conservative.

The spirit boat quickly flew into the grassland and even saw a group of jade-horned gazelles. These jade-horned gazelles could be up to the second-level spirit beasts, and the Ye family also raised some in the Tianli grassland.

However, this flock of sheep is larger than the ones raised by the Ye family. Among them is a particularly majestic sheep king, whose aura is at least in the middle stage of the third level.

This made everyone look happy.

Especially Wan Muchun, he had never seen this flock of sheep before, which shows that the flock of sheep has a very wide movement range.

Otherwise it wouldn't be so.

Wan Muchun also explained.

Following Wan Muchun's explanation, Ye Qingnian took out a Wanli Mirror, a magical mirror he obtained from Qinghe Sect.

After seeing that the third-level monster had appeared, Ye Qingnian did not go there directly. He was worried that he might be exposed, so he simply used a magic weapon to detect it first.

As the spiritual light slowly covered the entire mirror, a spiritual light emitted and turned into a huge spiritual screen.

And the scenes thousands of miles away also appeared in front of everyone one by one.

I saw a jungle appeared here, and I saw spiritual beasts passing through the jungle.

They were even surprised to see a red fox appear in the distance.

This red fox is somewhat similar to Ye Jingcheng’s red flame fox when it was weak.

Only of second order.

But it is equally spiritual.

After watching for a long time, Ye Qingnian discovered that there were quite a few red foxes here, and there were also many other fire-attributed spirit beasts.

"Maybe there is a volcano over there." Ye Qingnian estimated and put away the telescope.

After all, a telescope has certain limitations.

He looked at Ye Xuefan beside him.

"We can continue to move forward, but we can't use the spirit boat at full power. If there is a Demon King, we don't have safe enough means." Ye Xuefan regretted not calling the Earth Dragon Demon King.

After all, now that Chu Yanqing and Heiwu have broken through to the fifth level, the Ye family’s Tianfeng Oasis is no longer as poorly defended as before.

Now we can let the Earth Dragon Demon King come out and act with them.

"Okay." Ye Qingnian nodded. He waved his hand, and the spirit boat disappeared into the clouds and continued to move forward quietly.

His panorama was also quietly activated, so although he couldn't see the picture, it could give a little warning.

The spiritual boat soon reached the depths of the grassland, and the telescope could indeed see deeper. A huge crater seemed to appear in the mirror.

Ye Qingnian activated the spiritual spell, causing the spiritual screen to reappear.

You can see huge flames flowing in the crater, as if it could erupt at any time and spew out destructive magma.

One red fox after another fell into the lava mouth.

"This is the Earth Flame Red Fox Clan!" Ye Qingnian spoke excitedly after seeing it.

This spirit fox also has a great reputation in the beast list circulated in the Ye family.

The most important thing is that maybe we can find the fifth-level red fox demon king.

Ye Jingcheng’s spiritual beast now, the Red Flame Fox, has no advanced pills but is extremely important.

The Ye family has also been searching for the whereabouts of the fifth-level red fox for nearly fifty years.

Now that there was a chance they might be discovered, they were naturally excited.

Although his whereabouts are known in the Tianyao Mountains, according to the information sent back by Ye Jinghu, the other party may have other plans.

Ye Qingnian carefully activated the magic mirror.

And in the next moment, two blood-red eyes appeared on the spiritual screen.

Then a red shadow emerged.

Just when they were about to take a closer look, they heard a bang, and the spiritual light suddenly shattered. Ye Qingnian also groaned and actually spat out a mouthful of blood.

"A fifth-order transformed Demon King!" Although the Wanli Mirror could not sense the other party's cultivation level, the other party was able to sense the treasure mirror and make it ineffective. He was definitely a fifth-order fire-attributed Demon King. As for whether he was a red fox, that remained to be discussed.

"Retreat!" Ye Xuefan next to him shouted. After being reminded, Ye Qingnian also hurriedly turned around and ran away in his spirit boat.

The dazzling spirit sails rose one after another, and the speed increased suddenly.

"This!" Wan Muchun next to him retreated for some reason. In his opinion, the telescope was so far away, there was no need to panic.

You know, they haven't made any substantial discoveries in this field yet.

Now we found a grassland and some gazelles.

The reward given by the Ye family might not be very generous. If there is no treasure to condense the golden elixir this time, it is unknown how long it will take for him to have the chance to condense the golden elixir.

As for breaking through the Golden Core Realm directly without relying on the Gold Condensing Treasure, he is not prepared for that at the moment.

The lifespan of a Purple Mansion cultivator is as long as five hundred years. He does not intend to risk a breakthrough on his own without the help of precious medicines unless he has no chance left.

"We have gained a lot from this exploration. Mu Chun, you have made a great contribution this time. The reward for the breakthrough treasure of Wan family Ningdan will definitely not be small. In addition, we have decided that your quota will not be counted in the quota for the big competition. If there are any capable people in your Wan family, three people can go!" Ye Qingnian glanced at Ye Xuefan and then spoke.

He had originally planned to take care of the Wan family. This time, he might have discovered the fifth-order red fox demon king, which was already a great achievement. If Ye Jingcheng was here, he believed that the reward from the Wan family would be even more generous.

Of course, after a few simple words, Ye Qingnian and Ye Xuefan didn't say anything else, but hurried on their way. Only when they arrived at the dust storm did the four of them breathe a sigh of relief.

He also took the previous route again and escaped the dust storm area.

About half an hour later, a red-robed figure suddenly landed here.

Its brows were full of confusion.

You know, human monks have never been found here before.

This time, it not only discovered human cultivators, but also saw the aura of golden elixirs and fourth-level magic weapons.

"Could it be that the news that my fifth-level Earth Core Dragon Flame Lotus has matured has leaked out?" It muttered to itself in confusion.

Then, as if he remembered something bad, he flew towards the cave volcano.

It was a little worried that this was a way for humans to lure the tiger away from the mountain.

……

Above the sea of ​​sand, a sand city barely stands in the desert. With the blessing of the formation, dozens of spirit-enhancing trees begin to grow vigorously.

In the distance there is a spiritual vein emitting a faint spiritual energy.

"It's a good development!" The location chosen by Ye Xuefan and Ye Qingnian to go back was the nearest route.

I happened to pass by the oasis created by Wanjia.

Although the oasis is still in its infancy, judging from the amount of spiritual energy it contains, it is a good start.

"It's almost there!" Wan Chengjie did not say that this oasis was a gift of treasure.

After all, the Oasis is still a little bit lacking now. If it is well cultivated, it would be a favor to give it away.

After more than half a day, the spirit boat arrived at Xihe Oasis.

The four of them were also directly teleported to Tianfeng Oasis.

Although the competition is still some time away, Wan Chengjie still needs to prepare a few things.

According to the hint given by the Ye family, there is a high possibility of top flying sword inheritance here.

……

Ten days passed quietly.

On this day, in a cave on Diying Peak.

The five-colored flames began to flicker, and the next moment, five sword-raising pots flew out. At the same time, five five-colored spirit swords also flew around with great spirituality.

"Finally it's done." The young man with his eyes closed opened them, his eyes full of joy.

This person is none other than Ye Tengchuan who is in seclusion. As the swordsman of the Ye family, he is qualified to be trained with all the strength of the Ye family.

Since the foundation was established, the speed of breakthrough has been unstoppable. He successfully broke through the Purple Mansion and reached the middle stage of Purple Mansion.

Adding his five sword intents, he now has five natal sword embryos.

He is now confident that he can defeat a cultivator at the peak of the Purple Mansion realm.

“Next, I can concentrate on my retreat and strive to break through to the peak of Purple Mansion as soon as possible and try to condense the Golden Elixir.” Ye Tengchuan murmured again.

The five natal sword embryos also fell into the sword-raising pot, and finally entered his body together.

“With his talent for swordsmanship, he should have reached the golden elixir stage already.” Ye Tengchuan murmured again.

He took out the jade slip outside the cave and examined it.

As soon as he checked it, his face became extremely happy.

Some were happy for Ye Zhijian's breakthrough, while others were excited about having a secret realm of inheritance to explore.

His current cultivation talent is naturally good, but he has five spiritual roots after all, so his breakthrough speed is not that fast.

This is because he is the spirit son of the Sword Hall and has a high-level demon beast.

The only thing he was good at was swordsmanship. Now he might be able to inherit high-level swordsmanship for the Ye family, so he was naturally excited.

This is a good opportunity for him to show his ability.

He knew clearly in his heart that although no one said anything, there were actually several people in the Sword Hall who were dissatisfied with him becoming the Sword Master.

This is a good opportunity for him to prove himself.

……

At the entrance of the training hall, today is the day for selecting the final places.

Dabi finally stood in front of the sword tower.

Today, the sword tower has become the landmark building of the Ye Family Sword Hall.

In this competition, the sacredness of kendo can be demonstrated.

"All of you who are the chosen ones in sword-fighting, as long as you rank in the top two in the sword-fighting competition, or the top three in sword-fighting potential, you will have the opportunity to marry into the Ye family and practice in the sword tower!" As the acting head of the family, Ye Qingnian also stood in front of Ye Xingyuan today and spoke along with all the cultivators who came to participate in the sword-fighting competition.

And there was indeed some surprise in his eyes.

They had not discovered before that there were many sword-wielding geniuses in the sea of ​​sand.

Among them, the one from the Ma family is a woman named Ma Yunyu. She has an overwhelming sword intent and her true energy seems to be exceptionally strong. It seems that she is a Purple Mansion foundation-building person who has broken through from the Disha Tiangang.

Such cultivators have more advantages in swordsmanship.

Of course, the other person in the Ma family was much worse.

The Xu family does not have a Purple Mansion cultivator who has mastered the sword intent, but they have the head of the Xu family, who has reached the late Purple Mansion stage, and another foundation-building sword cultivator who has a very strong sword intent.

The Wan family’s is Wan Chengjie, who has a very strong swordsmanship ability and is in the late Purple Mansion stage, so he is almost certain to get a spot.

Others were a little afraid when they saw Wan Chengjie.

When the Xu and Ma families learned that Wan Muchun of the Wan family was not coming, they were both envious and relieved.

After all, Wan Muchun is also a Purple Mansion, and his sword skills are also good.

In addition to the three families, there are several affiliated families, and there are also several foundation-building families with considerable potential.

Finally, it is the Ye family’s Foreign Affairs Building.

One is a Purple Mansion sword cultivator, the other is a sword cultivator at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage.

There were exactly twelve people who arrived at the sword tower.

Among them, there are five people in Zifu and seven people in foundation building.

"Everyone, for the places to go to the secret realm this time, let's select two people from Zifu. As for the foundation-building cultivators, we will compare their potential." Ye Qingnian also began to announce the rules of the competition.

"Purple Mansion Sword Cultivators will compete with sword techniques. When their cultivation reaches a certain level, they will compete with sword techniques alone. As for the Foundation Establishment Cultivators, they will enter the Sword Tower. The one who reaches the highest level will win!"

As the rules were stated, no one objected.

Ye Qingnian took out a few jade slips and asked everyone to draw lots.

The first round is two-on-two, with one person getting a bye.

Among the two winners, the one with the best performance will be selected directly, and the remaining two will compete against each other.

When the lots were drawn, what no one expected was that the person who was drawn was Wan Chengjie.
