Beast Families: I Have an Illustrated Book of All Souls

Chapter 1447 The Oath of the Primordial Spirit (Bonus Chapter 2 for the former July Alliance Leader)

Just as the Five-Colored Demon Saint was about to flee, an inkstone fell from the sky, enveloping both the Heavenly Bamboo Wood Demon Saint and the Five-Colored Demon Saint.

This inkstone, a spiritual treasure, has a spiritual treasure space within it.

Neither of them noticed and they were also pulled into the spiritual treasure space.

Almost the instant the two entered, Nirvana Phoenix Demon Saint and a figure that had been hidden in the void for a long time also entered almost simultaneously.

This hidden figure was none other than Zheng Yuan Shenjun.

The Divine Lord Zheng Yuan actually arrived after Ye Jingcheng underwent his tribulation.

The Ye family's family token used a method from the spirit realm to transmit information, and Zheng Yuan Shenjun was teleported to the Sand Sea almost instantly.

The reason he didn't make a move was because Ye Jingcheng sent him a telepathic message, telling him to wait a little longer.

Ye Jingcheng was naturally furious at the Five-Colored Demon Saint and the Heavenly Bamboo Demon Saint.

But he needs to think more. The breakthrough to the Nascent Soul stage is a great phenomenon, but many people only know that the Taihang Mountains have gained a new Demon Saint, and do not know that Ye Jingcheng has also broken through to the Nascent Soul stage.

The Ye family will definitely make a move against Penglai in the future, and it would be better to do so secretly.

This time, he also considered keeping the two demon saints.

However, his injuries had not yet healed, which is why he asked Feng Sheng to delay for a while.

However, this Five-Colored Demon Saint was cunning and actually discovered his intentions, so Ye Jingcheng had no choice but to use the Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasure to trap both of them inside.

Ye Jingcheng knew he couldn't hide this heaven-reaching spiritual treasure; the Five-Colored Demon Saint must have sensed it when he was undergoing his tribulation.

He was undergoing a tribulation, and at that time, he couldn't react in time.

Ye Jingcheng, however, was quite at ease with Tian Nie Demon Saint and Zheng Yuan Divine Lord.

One of them will follow him into the Spirit Realm in the future, and the other is Ye Jingcheng's master. If these two want to spread the news about his Heavenly Treasure, then he will accept it.

Within the space of the Ink Spirit Ten Directions Inkstone lies the enormous Dark Nether Cold Water River.

Upon entering, the two demons were immediately subjected to terrifying gravity and immense cold.

Fortunately, the pressure that Nascent Soul cultivators cannot withstand is not so insurmountable for Demon Saints.

However, dozens of dark, shadowy figures appeared on the Cold Water River and attacked the Five-Colored Demon Saint once again.

Although Ye Jingcheng did not enter, he was, after all, the controller of the Tongtian Lingbao, and he knew that of the two demon saints, the most troublesome was the Five-Colored Demon Saint.

Its five-colored divine light is renowned in the cultivation world.

Along with Mo Ling rushed forward, Zheng Yuan Shen Jun also went, while Tian Nie Yao Sheng was dealing with Tian Zhu Mu.

For the Heavenly Demon Saint, this Heavenly Treasure does have an impact, but this impact is not significant in the face of its power.

“Fellow Daoist Zhengyuan, there’s no need for this…” the Five-Colored Demon Saint tried to persuade him.

However, he was repeatedly defeated by the terrifying methods of the Divine Lord Zhengyuan.

At this moment, the Divine Lord Zhengyuan had no regard for his lifespan.

He also knew that Ye Jingcheng's Heavenly Treasure could not be revealed, otherwise the entire Ye family and the righteous sect would suffer.

In today's Taiyuan Realm, the Qingyuan Sect has already disappeared.

Furthermore, the Mu family is currently locked in a life-or-death struggle with the Heavenly Beast Sect, to the point of near irreconcilable conflict.

In Zheng Yuan Shen Jun's view, all of this was a crime of possessing a treasure.

Even though Zheng Yuan Shenjun brought out all his spiritual treasures—a scroll, a spiritual sword, and the newly acquired Void-Breaking Ruler—he was still able to overcome them.

However, the Five-Colored Demon Saint was no ordinary demon saint. Although he was overwhelmed and could hardly breathe for a moment, his life was not in danger.

Of course, the Five-Colored Demon Saint was also extremely anxious at this moment.

Having survived the Nascent Soul Tribulation, it naturally knew Ye Jingcheng's injuries and knew he could recover quickly. At that time, it was three Nascent Soul warriors plus a Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasure fighting against the two demons.

They might just fall here.

At this moment, the Five-Colored Demon Saint also regretted it. If it had known it would encounter such a scene, it would not have come to check, or it would have called on the Heavenly Ape Demon Saint again.

At this moment, it knew that after seeing the Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasure, the other party would definitely not let it go.
"Master, Fellow Daoist Nie Feng, please do not worry about lifespan. I have a longevity peach tree here, one of which can extend one's life by five hundred years!" At this moment, Ye Jingcheng's voice also resounded in the space of the Ink Spirit Ten Directions Inkstone.

Moreover, Ye Jingcheng's body was slowly emerging.

It's clear that the other person's injuries have almost fully recovered.

"Fellow Daoists, wait a moment! I am willing to apologize with two sixth-order spiritual herbs and one spiritual treasure. Furthermore, I, this demon, swear an oath of my primordial spirit that I will never reveal the secret of the Heavenly Treasure!" At this moment, the Five-Colored Demon Saint also became anxious.

Almost as soon as the Five-Colored Demon Saint spoke, the Bamboo Demon Saint nodded repeatedly and spoke up as well:
"I also swear an oath of my primordial spirit!"

Compared to the Heavenly Dao oath of cultivators, the Primordial Spirit oath of Nascent Soul cultivators is even more domineering. If it is violated, the Primordial Spirit will truly be burned to death by the Tribulation Fire.

Therefore, Zheng Yuan Shenjun and Tianfeng Yaosheng finally stopped fighting.

"Three sixth-grade spiritual herbs, one spiritual treasure, plus a drop of your two demon essence blood!"

"no!"

"At most three sixth-tier spiritual herbs and spiritual treasures, but not essence blood!" the Five-Colored Demon Saint resolutely refused.

As a Nascent Soul cultivator, it was well aware that if its essence blood fell into the other party's hands, there would be far too many ways to manipulate it.

Upon hearing this, Ye Jingcheng frowned.

The blood of a sixth-tier demon saint is not easy to obtain, so he was naturally tempted.

However, at this moment, he also noticed the apprehension of the Five-Colored Demon Saint and the Heavenly Bamboo Demon Saint.

He nodded:

“Alright, let’s make a vow of primordial spirit!” Ye Jingcheng looked at the Heavenly Phoenix Demon Saint and the True Primordial God Lord, and nodded after they responded.

Although they have the advantage here, Ye Jingcheng has only just broken through and hasn't even comprehended the third level of the Heavenly Treasure.

If one were to be killed, it is very likely that most of their lifespan would be depleted, and even a peach of immortality could not make up for it.

Moreover, the favors owed are too great.

There are still many risks.

Now that the two demons have made a vow of primordial spirit, nothing could be better.

Ye Jingcheng was not afraid that they would go back on their word.

Of course, this doesn't mean Ye Jingcheng will let them go. He will wait until he masters the third level of the Tongbao Technique, merges with the Jade Dragon, and even the Crimson Flame Fox and Golden-Eyed Vermilion Bird break through in the future.

At that time, killing them would not be so difficult.

"You also need to swear an oath of your primordial spirit to let us leave!" The Five-Colored Demon Saint took out three spiritual medicines and one spiritual treasure.

These three spiritual herbs are the sixth-tier Purple Cloud Bright Ganoderma Fruit, the White Jade Cold Marrow Flower, and the Golden Flame Bright Origin Grass!

These are all spiritual herbs for sixth-level cultivators to improve their cultivation. They are naturally not as good as breakthrough-type spiritual herbs, but they are still very precious.

It is almost impossible to find in the outside world.

The spirit treasure, however, was much more ordinary; it was merely a low-grade spirit treasure called the Hunyuan Umbrella.

Ye Jingcheng and the others immediately made a vow of their primordial spirits. Once the vow was fulfilled, the Five-Colored Demon Saint would give away all the treasures.

Once outside the Spirit Treasure Space, it vanished instantly.

I no longer want to waste a single second.
