Beast Families: I Have an Illustrated Book of All Souls

Chapter 1295: The Third Demon Saint of the Phantom Flame Red Fox? (Thanks to the 7-coin reward from Old July)
Deep in the Tianyao Mountains, a sacred mountain pierces the sky.

Countless birds fly around Lingshan Mountain as if they are patrolling.

On the mountain, there stands a huge demon palace. Inside the palace, there are crowds of people and it is very lively.

These figures were like students in a mortal school, sitting on cushions and practicing breathing techniques.

Only the rich demonic energy and the appearance of some demon beasts show that they are not human.

In the center of the hall, an ancient lamp was shining quietly. If you looked closely, you could see many shadows falling inside the ancient lamp.

A sturdy monk in a golden robe was pacing in front of the ancient lamp.

His eyes were sometimes stern and sometimes relieved.

In the center of the palace, there are several spirit gathering formations that are constantly activated, emitting spiritual energy with the attributes of fire, gold, and wood.

These spiritual energies then flowed into the monsters in front of them.

Of course, if there were members of the Ye family here, they would definitely be shocked by the atmosphere here.

There are thirty or forty people here, and the weakest aura is in the late fourth stage.

There are even eight fifth-level monsters, and each monster is performing a unique breathing technique.

When some breathing techniques are performed, they shine like the blazing sun with golden light, while others emit green light or scarlet flames.

Naturally, the expressions of each monster were different at this moment. Some showed their teeth and grinned when they were performing their skills, while others were calm and composed, with a dignified bearing.

"The Golden-Armed Ape performed well, the Flame-Yuan Bird performed well, but the Golden-Tooth Tiger did not meet the standards..." the monk in ape robes commented one by one.

Those who received good reviews were naturally happy, while those who received bad reviews became disheartened.

This is a Taoist lesson from the Heavenly Demon Palace, which involves the breathing techniques of demon cultivators and the future path to immortality.

Those who perform well can receive personal guidance from the two demon saints and a large amount of spiritual medicine. Those who perform poorly will be fined spiritual medicine at the lightest and blood at the worst.

Of course, even if there were punishments, no monster would withdraw.

The breathing method can break the bloodline restrictions, and in the future it is expected to be fully supported by the two demon saints of the Heavenly Demon Palace.

No demon king was willing to withdraw.

"Okay, that's enough for today. You all can go back. Golden-armed Ape and Flame-yuan Bird can stay and wait in the side hall. The rest can disperse!" The figure in the golden robe was naturally the Sky Ape Demon Saint. He waved his hand and let all the monsters go.

Naturally, the monsters had no choice but to obey orders and walk out one by one.

After everyone had dispersed, a female cultivator wearing a five-colored robe walked in from the distance.

She looked at the Sky Ape Demon Saint, and not only was there no fear in her eyes, but there was some dissatisfaction.

"Hasn't the Ye family's treasure been figured out yet?"

“Why don’t you go to the human territory? With your magical powers, all the secrets of the Ye family will be revealed to you.” The Sky Ape Demon Saint was somewhat dissatisfied.

In terms of strength, it is naturally much better than the Five-Colored Demon Saint.

But the spirit of this Five-Colored Demon Saint was extremely powerful, and he was good at fire and wood illusions, so even it could be easily fooled. Therefore, in the Sky Demon Mountains, even though it was unwilling to accept it in its heart, it still suffered a lot at the hands of the Five-Colored Demon Saint.

And this is also what it is dissatisfied with. The Five-Colored Demon Saint's true form is the Five-Colored Mysterious Light Bird. He is regarded as the demon saint in the entire Dayu Realm who is most capable of detecting the Ye family's foundation.

However, the other party was afraid of going to the human territory and being besieged by the human gods, so they were unwilling to enter the human territory.

"This time, I will take action, just watch!" said the Five-Colored Demon Saint coldly.

“However, there is a high probability that there will be a human god following you, and you will need to attract the attention of that human god at that time.” said the Five-Colored Demon Saint.

It was rare for the Sky Ape Demon Saint not to quarrel.

It knew that this was indeed their last chance.

Even someone as powerful as the Dragon Saint would not dare to come to the Central Region, as you can tell from the dangers there.

This time, Ye Jingcheng of the human family of the Ye clan wants the fire fox's blood essence. If they cannot find out clearly, they may never have another chance.

After all, they had also inquired about it. The only spiritual beast materials and essence blood that the Ye family lacked were the red fox's essence blood and a few other spiritual materials. But even if the Ye family wanted the rest, they might not be able to obtain them in the Tianyao Mountain Range.

Besides, Ye Jingcheng of the Ye family belongs to the righteous sect, so the righteous sect may not be short of spiritual medicine materials.

“By the way, how is the progress of those Demon Kings and Demon Kings this time?” After asking about the situation of the Ye family, the Five-Colored Demon Saint started asking other questions.

"There is a Flame Yuan Bird that is okay. You can take a look at it for reference. Its ancestor should be the bloodline of the Sky-Swallowing Flame Bird, but its bloodline cannot yet show the complete breathing method of that clan." The Sky Ape Demon Saint continued to answer. He was still somewhat happy when he said this. The bloodline of the Golden Arm Tong Ape was also pretty good. After their guidance, its breathing method also improved rapidly.

……

In the auction hall of Tianyao Mansion, with countless cultivators pouring into the hall, the auction finally arrived.

Whether it was the Nine-bend Spirit Ginseng, the ancient treasure, or the blood essence of the Fifth-Rank Demon King, they all attracted many Nascent Soul cultivators to come.

Therefore, during the entire auction, the five floors that had not been fully lit up for a long time were all lit up today.

Even the auctioneer is no longer a Jindan today, but a Yuanying Zhenjun, the Grand Elder of Xuanyuan Pavilion, Zhang Jingyuan.

Zhang Jingyuan was sitting next to the podium in the hall at this moment, with his eyes closed quietly.

He also seemed a little nervous at this moment. After all, this auction was different from previous ones. Previous auctions were dominated by their four major forces, but this time, the Beast Source Sect was the main force.

Having been stationed in the Heavenly Demon Palace for so many years, they naturally knew about the confidence of the Beast Source Sect.

On the surface, there seems to be no immortal forces in Tianyaozhou.

But in fact, the Beast Source Sect is the largest immortal sect.

It's just that the Beast Source Sect usually doesn't interfere too much. They only collect some special elixirs from the human race and sell some spiritual materials. Even their plundering of the four major forces seems very friendly.

This is also the reason why most people do not understand the strength of the Beast Source Sect.

This time, the Beast Source Sect vigorously promoted the auction, aiming to obtain essence and blood, ancient treasures, and Nine-bend Spirit Ginseng.

Only some fourth-level and third-level treasures were collected from their major families, and the rest of the treasures were basically taken out from the Beast Source Sect.

He knew that either the powerful person behind the Beast Source Gate had taken a fancy to something, or he was trying to attract some cultivators to come.

But these were not something he could think about at all, so he would not investigate or inquire. He knew that sometimes, only fools could survive.

"Okay, it's almost time. Everyone, I am Zhang Jingyuan, currently serving as the Grand Elder of Xuanyuan Pavilion. Because this auction is jointly held by the four major forces of Tianyao Mansion, I will be the auctioneer."

"The rules of the auction are the same as usual. The highest bidder wins. For treasures above the fourth level, we will not accept spirit stones below the middle grade. For treasures above the fifth level, we will not accept spirit stones below the upper grade!"

"If you don't have enough spirit stones, you can exchange them for special spiritual medicines or treasures!" After Zhang Jingyuan finished his introduction, several cultivators walked out from the platform in the auction hall.

"The first treasure to be auctioned is the Purple Palace Jade Liquid. There are three portions in total, which will be auctioned three times. The starting price is one thousand medium-grade spirit stones, and each bid increase must not be less than ten medium-grade spirit stones!" Zhang Jingyuan took out the first treasure and released his aura, and instantly spiritual light filled the air.

This immediately attracted a lot of foundation-building cultivators and Purple Mansion forces to scramble for it.

Although this is a fifth-level auction, most of the immortal cultivation world focuses on foundation building and Qi training.

Therefore, there are still quite a few foundation-building and Qi-cultivating cultivators in the hall.

Of course, foundation building accounts for 80% of them, while Qi training only accounts for 10%. Few of these Qi training cultivators really want to auction them, but they think the tickets are not expensive and are brought here by their family elders to have a look.

Ye Jingcheng and Ye Jingyu of the Ye family did not take action because they had destroyed many sects and obtained their opponent's foundation. The Ye family was still short of Golden Pills, but they were not short of Purple Mansion Jade Liquid.

So I didn't take any action.

After the Purple Palace Jade Liquid was auctioned at a high price of 189,000, the next item to be auctioned was other treasures.

Among these treasures, there were ten foundation-building pills in a group, as well as third- and fourth-tier magic weapons. Finally, as Zhang Jingyuan took out the gold-condensing pill, the entire auction became extremely hot again.

"I don't need to introduce this treasure in detail. It can condense golden elixir. Taking one can increase the chance of getting golden elixir by 30%."

"The starting price of this treasure is one hundred top-grade spirit stones, and each bid increase must not be less than one top-grade spirit stone!" Zhang Jingyuan spoke again.

"One hundred and three!"

"one hundred and ten!"

……

"one hundred twenty!"

The price was finally called up to one hundred and sixty top-grade spirit stones. You know, one top-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for almost one hundred and one medium-grade spirit stones, and one hundred and sixty top-grade spirit stones are almost equivalent to one million, eight hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones.

This is enough to prove how passionate it is.

At this moment in the room on the fifth floor, Ye Jingfu couldn't help but look at Ye Jingyu and Ye Jingcheng.

As for the Ningjin Pill, he naturally wanted to buy it.

After all, the Ye family doesn’t have many golden elixirs, and he himself is a mid-stage Purple Mansion cultivator. In addition, the family is indeed not short of spirit stones now.

Even in recent years, in order to completely transform the high-grade spirit stone veins on the sand sea into top-grade spirit stone veins, a lot of high-grade spirit stones have been put into the veins.

However, Ye Jingcheng and Ye Jingyu remained silent and showed no intention of making an offer, so he naturally had to give up.

"Next, it's a young spirit beast. This spirit beast was captured personally in the Tianyao Mountains by the head of the Zhu family of the Fengxue family, and even many family members died!" At this moment, Zhang Jingyuan stood in front of a large cage.

The cage was covered with spiritual cloth, making it difficult to see what the spiritual beast inside was.

But Zhang Jingyuan's introduction made many monks unable to help but fantasize.

After keeping people's appetite for a while, Zhang Jingyuan lifted the cloth, revealing a three-eyed red fox.

This three-eyed red fox is not from the Earth Flame Fire Fox clan, but from the Youyan Red Fox clan.

There is a spiritual fire naturally nurtured in the third eye, and the darker the spiritual fire is, the higher the talent of the red fox is.

As for the Red Fox's spiritual fire, it is obvious that he has good talent.

Ye Jingcheng's treasure book also opened, with four rays of light. Combined with the red fox's cultivation level at the late second stage, his talent was indeed good.

Of course, it wasn’t to the point where Ye Jingcheng was particularly moved.

But he still spoke:
"Fourth brother, take a picture of this!" Ye Jingcheng knew that because he did not reveal his whereabouts, the other party did not know whether he would come or not, so this red fox cub was just a test.

If he guessed correctly, someone would probably keep raising the price for this red fox cub.

But his Ye family must follow, otherwise he is a little worried that the Beast Source Sect will no longer extract the fifth-level red fox's essence blood.

Although the Ye family knew the inside information, that inside information was not public after all, so it was understandable that an accident might have occurred.

And what happened next was exactly as Ye Jingcheng expected. Someone was bidding against the Ye family.

In the end, the original price of about 600,000 spirit stones was raised to 1.8 million, which was slightly higher than the price of Ningjindan.

"Okay, everyone, next is the auction of the finale treasure!" Zhang Jingyuan said excitedly after auctioning off several magic weapons and monster spirit materials.

Then five beautiful female cultivators from the Purple Mansion walked up to the auction stage carrying five mahogany trays.

"The first and final treasure is the Nine-bend Spiritual Ginseng..."

Just as Zhang Jingyuan opened his mouth, he saw an old Taoist in a purple robe who looked like Lord Zi Yang suddenly frowned in a loft not far away.

In front of him, there is a chessboard.

A figure sat down opposite quietly.

"Get out!" the purple-robed monk shouted angrily.

The chessboard suddenly became chaotic, and countless chess pieces flew out.

But at this moment, the outside of the room seemed like two different worlds, and I couldn't feel anything happening inside the room at all.

"You're not welcome even if I'm playing chess?" The voice of the Sky Ape Demon Saint sounded.

"Do you know the consequences of that?" Lord Zi Yang shouted angrily. At the same time, the flying chess pieces turned into spirit swords one by one.

Cut towards the opposite side.

The Ape Demon Saint's face suddenly changed that day, but he could only grit his teeth and persevere. At this moment, he could only hope that the other party would be quick.

……

In another room, a monk in Taoist robes was holding strands of bamboo threads in her hands, weaving bamboo figures and bamboo baskets. She didn't even glance at the auction outside.

And the next moment, she stopped suddenly, and a bamboo basket on the table flew into the air.

The next moment, a figure with five-colored spiritual light landed in the room.

"Fellow Daoist, what do you think of the bamboo baskets I made?" The monk looked across and asked.

“It is naturally a work of art beyond compare. But why bother, fellow Daoist? Baiqiao Valley is located in the northernmost part of the Central Region!” The figure with five-colored spiritual light is naturally the Five-Colored Demon Saint.

It frowned, obviously embarrassed.

But there is nothing I can do.

"Fellow Daoist, you also know that I am a member of the Central Region. Since I am a member of the Central Region, I should uphold the rules of the Tianyao Continent." The cultivator continued.

And at this moment, she finally raised her head and looked at the other person.

"Of course, if you are willing to donate the sixth-level five-color heavenly bamboo wood to make a futon for me, I might just leave."

"My friend, you have gone too far. Even if we don't do anything else today, I would still like to learn something from you!" The Five-Colored Demon Saint's face was suddenly filled with anger.

The sixth-rank spiritual wood is the foundation of its survival, so how could it hand it over?

……

In Ye Jingcheng's room, his eyes began to become dazed at this moment.

Everything before my eyes began to change.

A huge five-colored spiritual tree appeared around him, and he stood among the five-colored spiritual tree.

Around the spirit tree, a pair of huge eyes were looking at him.

He felt that his soul was about to be turned over, and at the moment when his soul was in severe pain, the Blood Soul Orb suddenly began to spin.

The next moment, a scream was heard, and the auction of the five-colored spiritual wood in front of them turned into an auction again.

The price of the Nine-bend Spiritual Ginseng has reached eight hundred high-quality spirit stones, and is still rising!

But at this moment, Ye Jingcheng was sweating profusely.

He was sure that there were not two Demon Saints in the Tianyao Mountain Range, but three Demon Saints.

It’s just that the Wood Demon Saint seemed to be restrained by his real body, and could only come over as a clone. His strength was not at the sixth level, and he was blocked by his Blood Soul Pearl!
