Beast Families: I Have an Illustrated Book of All Souls

Chapter 1526 The Demon Saint's Scheme (Please Subscribe)

Deep within the East China Sea, between the Tianjiao Sea and the Chenjing Sea, lies a massive island.

Around the island, waves surged, and sometimes a dragon could be seen breaking out of the sea, and sometimes a huge whale could be seen leaping up, splashing up large sprays of water.

In the sky, several enormous golden rocs occasionally flew by, leaving behind streaks of golden light and shadow.

Surprisingly, the three terrifying beasts merely stood facing each other, growling softly, but did not engage in battle.

On the island, ancient trees reach for the sky, their branches and leaves flourishing, presenting an extraordinary scene. The largest spiritual tree is three or four zhang in diameter, and its topmost branches are so thick that ordinary cultivators cannot even see them.

Beneath this sacred tree, a simple table is set up.

Four figures dressed in various colored robes sat around the table.

However, these cultivators all retained some resemblance to spirit beasts, revealing their true identities.

"Penglai has been destroyed, and Tiande and Jiuying are both dead. Do you think you will be safe?" The one who spoke was dressed in white robes and had two horns on his head; he was none other than the Cold Flood Dragon Demon Saint of the Heavenly Flood Dragon Sea.

However, compared to the past, its current condition is not very good.

Furthermore, he was no longer as emotionally stable as before, and his eyes subtly revealed a fierce glint.

"You should know that we have not pursued the matter of you coming to our door to exterminate my people, nor have we asked you to compensate for the sixth-grade precious medicine and Lan Li's life."

At this point, its tone became even colder, and the surrounding temperature seemed to drop considerably.

This time, when it went to the Taihang Mountains, it not only failed to kill the Jade Dragon, but also lost more than a dozen dragon species in the Tianjiao Sea, and many more dragons were killed or injured.

Even Lan Li failed to break through because she was disturbed.

This completely deprived the Jiaolong clan of the possibility of having three demon saints in one clan.

If it weren't for the Ye family's rise to power and their potential to target Tianjiaohai in the future...

Even if there were a reason, it would still join forces with another dragon demon saint, Lei Chen, to kill at least one of the Golden Roc and the Chen Whale.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to quell its resentment.

Lei Jiaojiao Sheng, standing beside him, also looked at the remaining two with unfriendly eyes.

It seemed like they were ready to fight at the slightest provocation.

After all, Lan Li and a large number of the dragon clan were killed by them.

"Hmph, what do you mean we ruined it? Lan Li's failure to break through was due to its own lack of resources? As for us sending our clansmen here, that was your Jiaolong clan's provocation first!" This time, it was Chen Jing Demon Saint who answered, and he was equally furious.

Last time, the Flood Dragon Clan and the Human Clan staged a play to help Lei Chen break through.

This time, it was the Jiaolong clan that made the first move. If the Golden Roc hadn't been so indecisive, it would have killed Lei Chen right from the start.

"Who doesn't know that ninety percent of the dragon clan in the entire Eastern Region are in the Heavenly Dragon Sea? The dragons are slaughtering our people. If we don't come looking for them, who else should we look for?" The Golden Roc Demon Saint nodded in agreement.

It originally had no interest in the disputes in the nearby waters.

It only wanted to break through to the mid-stage of the sixth rank, and then find a node to sneak into the spirit world.

However, the Golden Roc clan are its descendants, and it cannot ignore them.

"Our entire dragon clan went to wipe out the Ye family, how could we have the spare strength to wipe out you? Your words are truly thoughtless." The Cold Dragon Demon Saint was even more furious.

"Since both my Chenjing clan and Fellow Daoist Jinpeng's Jinpeng clan have suffered heavy casualties this time, let's part ways here. Neither of our clans has any interest in fighting against the human race," Chenjing Demon Saint said directly.

Although they had four demon saints, they had witnessed the power of the Nine-Headed Serpent and had heard of its great name.

With their opponent dead, the Ye family's strength is probably far superior to theirs, so they have no motivation left.

As for the strength of the human race, it is not worried. At worst, it can stay in the sea, which is their home ground, with the support of the divine realm and the holy mountain.

Even if all else fails, we can escape into the deep sea. "Fellow Daoist Chenjing's idea is also my idea. When we reach the sixth level, our goal is also to sneak into ascension. Fellow Daoist Hanming, I also advise you to plan more treasures and less conflict. Otherwise, when your life force is exhausted and you still can't enter the Spirit Realm, all that will be left is regret." Golden Roc Demon Saint also shook his head.

If they were dealing with a Nascent Soul cultivator from the human race, they would naturally take action.

However, even when facing a Nascent Soul cultivator, they were able to destroy the Nascent Soul cultivator's demonic cultivation power.

They naturally have no ideas.

Moreover, they also have to worry that the human race will send more Nascent Soul cultivators to assist them.

"Gentlemen, let's not even talk about how no one can escape unscathed when the nest is overturned. Do you know what kind of power the Ye family originally possessed?" The cold dragon's Daoist name was Hanming, but it usually disdained to discuss this with humans.

Now that it saw the two demons were about to retreat, it naturally became somewhat anxious.

Although their dragon clan has two demon saints, they are not confident that they can defeat even Penglai.

They are naturally worried that the Ye family will take action against them.

As Hanming spoke, both Chenjing and the Golden Roc Demon Saint showed interest.

These two changes in expression naturally caught Han Ming's attention.

But aside from cursing those two old foxes in its heart, it really had no other choice.

"The Ye family possesses treasures that enhance bloodlines. Do you know what the Jade Dragon Demon Saint was originally?"

"It's a Jade Qilin Flying Serpent!" Hanming took out a jade slip.

This jade slip was naturally obtained from Penglai.

The Ye family's rise to power has only taken five or six hundred years, a period of time that seems incredibly long to ordinary people.

But for Nascent Soul cultivators and even Deity Transformation cultivators, it's just a matter of a few cultivation sessions.

With careful investigation, one can still discover the earliest clues about the Ye family.

Besides the jade dragon, Hanming then took out several more jade slips.

The jade slip contained records of a two-tailed red fox and a spirit beast similar to an armored beast.

Finally, there was the Earth Dragon Demon King, but in the beginning, the Earth Dragon Demon King was just a giant golden lizard.

"These spirit beasts are the Ye family's six-tailed red fox, half-Qilin golden-scaled beast, and pure-blooded earth dragon demon king..." Han Ming said one by one.

Chen Jing and Jin Peng Demon Saint were also filled with disbelief, even suspecting that Han Ming was deceiving them.

Compared to humans, demon beasts place more emphasis on bloodlines; the two are worlds apart.

They simply couldn't believe it.

"I swear on my primordial spirit!" Han Ming said again when he saw that the two still did not believe him.

Upon hearing this, both Chen Jing and Jin Peng's expressions changed drastically.

A glint of greed flashed in his eyes.

"As far as I know, this is a spiritual treasure of the Ye family," Hanming said, trying to recall what Tiande Divine Lord had said.

Although it had never seen the magical treasure, at this moment, it had to have one even if it didn't exist.

Otherwise, it would be impossible unless it could give up the Heavenly Dragon Sea.

But the area beneath the Heavenly Flood Dragon Sea is their dragon land. If it weren't for that location, how could they possibly surpass the Dragon Whale and Golden Roc clans?

“But our strength isn’t enough…” Jin Peng frowned!
