Chapter 107: The Spirit Beast Sect Branch, Xie Jiaren

Translator: 549690339

The next morning dawned.

“Sect Master, good morning!”

The disciples emerged from their respective rooms.

Last night’s battle had been exhausting, and after bathing in the spiritual liquid, they all had a good night’s sleep, rejuvenating their vitality, before sitting cross-legged beside the spiritual spring and gradually entering a state of cultivation.

The cultivation level of the Qi Refining Realm was still too low.

For those in the Element Gathering Realm or even higher, the Spirit Sea Realm, there was no need to sleep; just by meditating they could quickly replenish their essence, energy, and spirit and no longer needed to eat to replenish what was lost, achieving true abstinence from grains.

“All of you, cultivate diligently!” Ye Feng reminded the disciples before lifting his head.

A few days ago, Master Li, a carpenter from the Jia Family, made a visit. Ye Feng had asked him to bring some lumber and built a large pavilion over the location of the spiritual spring, complete with bead curtains around it.

If someone entered the backyard, they wouldn’t have to worry about catching sight of the disciples meditating beside the spiritual spring, nor would they immediately discover the spring itself.

“The spiritual energy around the spring seems to have become even purer.”

Ye Feng looked down and noticed that the Purifying Green Lotus had grown quite a bit more, about to bloom and enter its mature phase. With its purifying effect, the spiritual energy quality of the Misty Sect was higher than other miniature spirit veins.

A moment later, Ye Feng headed to the kitchen and began to strip the flesh from the demonic beasts they had hunted the previous night. After cooking the meat, he fed it to the eight spiritual beasts of the Misty Sect.

“This tastes awful!” Fox Da Hong pouted.

“Great Immortal, eating like this is so ineffective, much of the essence and blood are wasted,” Dog Er Ha said with a worried expression.

Ye Feng asked, “So, you mean we should eat it raw?”

Pig San Pang flicked his short tail and said, “Eating raw is also ineffective unless there is a special cultivation technique that can directly extract the pure essence and blood from the flesh of the demonic beasts.”

Ye Feng asked, “Don’t you have one?”

“We don’t,” the Whitefloat Five Immortals shook their heads simultaneously.

Little White Fox and the Iron Claw Dragon Eagle also shook their heads in tandem.

Brother Flathead lay beside the Purifying Green Lotus, not even bothering to glance at the meat Ye Feng had brought over.

“This won’t do; we must ask around to see how we should process the flesh and blood of demonic beasts to avoid wasting it… And, if possible, we need to find a suitable cultivation technique for spiritual beasts to strengthen their bloodlines,” Ye Feng thought to himself. He then flew towards the Whitefloat City Lord’s Mansion, intending to have a chat with Xin Guangxuan.

At that moment, a curvaceous woman with a round face walked out from a room nearby—it was Pang Haiyun, a disciple of the Liuyun Sect.

“Daoist Sister Haiyun, where is your Brother Xin?” Ye Feng inquired.

Upon hearing Ye Feng refer to her with such familiarity, Pang Haiyun’s cheeks flushed as she said, “Sect Master Ye, Brother Xin isn’t in the City Lord’s Mansion; he’s off enjoying himself at Goulan.”

Ye Feng’s mouth twitched slightly, “Which Goulan?”

“Jade Green Tower,” Pang Haiyun replied.

Upon hearing the name, Ye Feng’s eyes flickered, ready to set off. But then he slapped his forehead, remembering that Pang Haiyun was also a Sect Disciple. It seemed asking her might also work.

So, Ye Feng asked, “Do you know how to handle the flesh and blood of demonic beasts? I’ve recently hunted some, intending to nurture the Sect’s Mountain Guardian Spirit Beasts, but found the effects to be quite poor.”

Pang Haiyun smiled upon hearing this and said, “Sect Master Ye has come to the right person. I have a friend from a Star-Level Sect, the Spirit Beast Sect, who should be able to answer such inquiries.”

“Is it possible to meet with her?” Ye Feng showed interest.

“Please wait a moment, Sect Master Ye,” Pang Haiyun took out a paper crane, blew a breath of spiritual energy into it, and the paper crane immediately flapped its wings, flying out at great speed.

“That’s a Messenger Paper Crane, right?” Ye Feng remarked.

Last time he left Wuxuan Pavilion, Zheng Yaoshou from Hundred Artifacts Sect had given him one for message transmission.

Pang Haiyun nodded, “Yes, it indeed is a Messenger Paper Crane, very fast, capable of flying within a three hundred li radius, and not expensive either, just twenty Spirit Stones will do.”

Ye Feng said, “That really isn’t expensive.”

The two sat under a pavilion in the City Lord’s Mansion waiting, Pang Haiyun, having heard that Ye Feng was a Great Master of Magic, took the opportunity to ask for some instruction on the spot.

With Pang Haiyun’s help, Ye Feng also patiently explained some of the spells he had mastered, from which Pang Haiyun benefited immensely.

Less than half an hour later, the paper crane flew back.

Pang Haiyun took the paper crane, let spiritual energy circulate within it, and her eyes gradually lit up with brightness, “That’s really a coincidence, my friend is just a hundred li north of Whitefloat City, in one of the branch halls.”

“There’s no time to lose, let’s set out!” After saying this, Ye Feng rose directly into the sky.

Pang Haiyun was slightly surprised and chose to travel by flying sword.

For cultivators, a hundred li is not far.

Soon after, Ye Feng and Pang Haiyun landed on the ground, pushed aside the mist, and walked into a valley.

This place was mountainous with clear waters and abundant spiritual energy; spiritual beasts could be seen running on the grass everywhere, and white cranes were flying high in the sky, spiritual energy fluttering.

“Oh! My little chubby, you finally came.” A woman dressed in a brown long dress sat on a Spirit Horse, her presence gallant, as she waved to Pang Haiyun from afar.

When she got closer, the woman looked enviously at Pang Haiyun’s proud front, then looked at her own flat area and heaved a sigh, “Little chubby, you’ve grown again, why is mine still flat as a prairie?”

After speaking, the woman held her face with both hands, pouting her lips, looking very depressed.

“Right, is this the Misty Sect Master Ye you mentioned?” The woman suddenly turned to Ye Feng, her eyes suddenly filled with infatuation, “Ah, so handsome and dashing, truly worthy of being the Chosen One, I wonder if you would be free to spend the evening with me under the flowers and moon?”

Hearing these bold words, Ye Feng was momentarily at a loss for words.

Pang Haiyun hurriedly covered the woman’s mouth with her hand and said to Ye Feng with an embarrassed face, “Sect Master Ye, please don’t take offense, this friend of mine is ‘Xie Jiaren,’ an inner sect disciple of the Spirit Beast Sect; she always likes to talk nonsense, but when it comes to cultivating spiritual beasts, she is second to none among the young disciples of the Spirit Beast Sect.”

Xie Jiaren pried Pang Haiyun’s hand away and said proudly, “I am clearly the best! Among the young disciples of the Spirit Beast Sect, who dares to compete with me?”

Listening to this boastful claim, Ye Feng’s face was lined with speechlessness; he felt Xie Jiaren was not very reliable.

“I want to ask for advice on how to handle demonic beast flesh,” Ye Feng broke the silence and stated his purpose directly.

“I’m an expert at that!” Xie Jiaren thrust her thumb up, pointed it to her nose, then shouted toward the valley, “Da Sha, Er Sha… Xiao Sha, assemble everyone!”

As her voice fell, all the spiritual beasts in the valley ran over, lined up in a row in front of Xie Jiaren, numbering more than a hundred, mostly Lower Rank and Middle Rank Demon Soldiers; there were also more than a dozen High-rank Demon Soldiers emitting a powerful aura.

All together, even someone at the Element Gathering Realm would not fear them.

Just then, from the center of the valley and the thatched hut, came an old voice laden with deep authority, “Xie Jiaren, what mischief are you up to now?”

This was a second-layered Element Gathering Realm expert!

As the aura was released, all the spiritual beasts lay on the ground, shivering.

Ye Feng’s eyes showed admiration as he thought to himself, “It’s no wonder it’s a Star-Level Sect, even a branch hall has an Element Gathering Realm expert in residence, impressive indeed.”

Xie Jiaren stuck out her tongue and whispered to Ye Feng, “That’s one of the elders of our branch hall. He’s always eating the wrong medicine and scolding people, but he doesn’t dare hit me, because my grandfather is the Sect Master of the Spirit Beast Sect. If he dares to hit me, my grandfather dares to beat him up, hahaha!”

Hearing Xie Jiaren’s laughter, the branch hall elder was so angry that he gnashed his teeth, yet he dared not say much, only emitting an indignant snort.

Ye Feng watched this scene, frozen in place, and in his mind, there was only one thought.

“Have I encountered an oddball here?”
