Chapter 2: Beyond Saving

The Leaf family's Demon Hunting Hall was located on the mountainside of Leaf family's Soaring Cloud Peak. It was a two-story complex hall, built extremely magnificently and grandly.

The entire hall was constructed from centuries-old ironwood, and engraved with numerous lifelike spirit beast statues, making the hall even more extraordinary.

Ye Jingcheng entered the hall and registered. He saw many Leaf family members busying around inside the hall. Some of them had their clothes stained with beast blood, appearing somewhat fierce.

Clearly, they had just returned from the depths of the Taihang Mountains.

Among them, there was even Ye Haiyun, the most famous alchemist of the Ye family.

Ye Haiyun was squatting, looking at a strange beast spread out on the ground on a cloth. After a long while, he shook his head.

The strange beast on the ground was about the size of an ordinary fox, but its fur was fiery red, full of spirituality. However, one of its front legs was injured, and the wound had already begun to turn black and dry.

Especially its spiritual pupils, which had begun to slowly dim, as if they would pass away at any moment.

It chirped weakly, its voice getting softer and softer.

The Red Fox's injury was obviously extremely serious, and it was also deeply poisoned. It was only able to hold on to its last breath due to its tough life and extraordinary potential.

"This Crimson Flame Fox is beyond saving. It's a pity, such a good demon beast with the potential to reach the peak of the second rank!"

As Ye Haiyun spoke, the other Leaf family members also sighed in regret.

The demon race is different from the human race, and they value bloodlines more.

With a good bloodline, they can reach a higher realm.

If the bloodline is poor, the resources spent are even more than a cultivator's cultivation, which violates the original intention of cultivators raising spirit beasts.

The Crimson Flame Fox still had hope of being treated, but at least a second-rank spirit pill was needed.

Moreover, even if the Crimson Flame Fox survived, it might not have its previous potential. For the entire Leaf family, such pills were very precious.

Only Ye Jingcheng, who was beside him, suddenly widened his eyes, because the Yellow Leather Ancient Book in his body began to turn page by page. This was the first time he had seen this.

Finally, the picture froze, and the brilliant page strangely turned from the first page to the middle page. On this page, there was a Crimson Fox with as many as nine tails, its fierce power monstrous!

With that claw strike, it seemed as if it would tear through the entire sky!

When Ye Jingcheng saw this vision, how could he not know that this Crimson Flame Fox might not be simple!

And his ancient book was also related to cultivating spirit beasts!

But at this moment, he didn't dare to stand out.

Having lived two lives, he understood the principle of being guilty of possessing a treasure.

"Aren't there still two Flying Cloud Leopards? When the Flying Cloud Leopards reach adulthood, they also have a chance to reach the second rank, becoming existences comparable to early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators. They can be considered the biggest gain of our trip, and those of the 'Jing' generation can choose them!" The more serious Third Elder Ye Haiyi slowly said.

The Leaf family paid a considerable price for this trip, exploring a demon valley and reaping great rewards.

And as a Beast Taming family, there were still many of the 'Jing' generation in the family who did not have suitable spirit beasts.

It wasn't that the Leaf family didn't raise spirit beasts, but that good spirit beasts were too scarce.

"Jingcheng, you don't have a spirit beast either, do you? Then choose a cub here. This time, there are enough five cubs to choose from!" Ye Haiyi sent a message via a sound transmission talisman. Seeing that Ye Jingcheng was also there, he immediately spoke.

Then, he spread out his hand, and as the spirit beast pouch glowed, five different little beasts appeared in front of him.

Among them, two Flying Cloud Leopards were obviously very energetic, constantly stretching their heads around. Not only were they not afraid of the unfamiliar environment, but they also let out bursts of intimidating low roars!

The remaining three were a Green Scale Snake and two Jade Ring Rats.

These three were somewhat listless.

Their physique and potential were obviously several levels weaker.

Ye Jingcheng had memorized the appearances of these spirit beasts since he was a child, and he had once looked forward to it. At this moment, he naturally liked them very much.

"Third Grandfather, let Fourth Brother and Second Brother choose first!" Ye Jingcheng showed a face full of love, but seemed to think of something, and reluctantly declined.

The Fourth Brother and Second Brother he mentioned were both Leaf family members who didn't have suitable spirit beasts, and both of them had three spiritual roots.

"It doesn't matter. In the Leaf family, your alchemy talent is also good, and you cultivate diligently. Let you choose first!" Ye Haiyi still had a good impression of Ye Jingcheng.

Among the 'Jing' generation, Ye Jingcheng might not be the one with the best talent, but he was definitely the most hardworking and diligent. He seized all the time to cultivate, and after cultivation, he also checked alchemy books and practiced alchemy.

In the world of cultivation, weak talent does not necessarily mean you can't go far, but a wavering will definitely means you can't go far!

Ye Jingcheng still shook his head. If he chose first and didn't choose the Flying Cloud Leopard, it would be too unreasonable.

Seeing that Ye Jingcheng still insisted, Ye Haiyi didn't say much.

He closed his eyes slightly, waiting for the rest of the 'Jing' generation to arrive.

Not much time passed before several young men wearing Leaf family clothes walked in.

The one walking in the front with a broad chest was Ye Jingcheng's Second Brother, Ye Jingyong, followed by Fourth Brother Ye Jingyu, Sixth Brother Ye Jingli, and Seventh Sister Ye Jingyu.

Ye Jingcheng also greeted them one by one.

Then, he naturally fell to the back.

Seeing this scene, Ye Haiyi and Ye Haiyun's eyes also flickered slightly.

But they sighed a little.

In the world of cultivation, such humility is not a good thing!

The two looked at each other, preparing to find an opportunity to persuade Ye Jingcheng.

Without suspense, Ye Jingyong and Ye Jingyu chose the two Flying Cloud Leopards.

And Ye Jingli and Ye Jingyu respectively chose the Green Scale Snake and the Jade Ring Rat!

Everyone took out their family tokens and began to allocate contribution points. The Flying Cloud Leopard was four hundred contribution points, and the Green Scale Snake and Jade Ring Rat were two hundred contribution points.

It was also Ye Jingcheng's turn to walk up.

"Third Grandfather, Fourth Grandfather, can I choose this Crimson Flame Fox?" Ye Jingcheng asked.

At this moment, he was also a little uneasy in his heart.

As if he had hesitated for a long time.

This scene fell into the eyes of the others, and they were also full of shock and incomprehension.

This Crimson Flame Fox was a dying beast. At that time, Ye Haiyi picked up this Crimson Flame Fox with the attitude of giving it a try.

"This Crimson Flame Fox is already dying!" Ye Haiyun reminded him from the side.

Ye Jingcheng's alchemy was taught by Ye Haiyun, and Ye Haiyun couldn't bear for Ye Jingcheng to choose such a Crimson Flame Fox.

Ye Jingcheng nodded, indicating that he knew.

"Then I'll give you both of them, a total of two hundred and fifty contribution points. If you don't have enough contribution points, you can owe the family first!" Ye Haiyi then thought of a win-win solution.

Ye Jingcheng also nodded happily, and quickly took out his family token and asked Ye Haiyi to deduct the points.

"Thank you, Third Grandfather, Fourth Grandfather!" Ye Jingcheng quickly thanked him.

After the handover, Ye Jingcheng chatted with his older brothers and sisters for a while, and then anxiously hugged the two spirit beasts and headed towards his courtyard.

At this moment, if someone could see inside Ye Jingcheng's body, they would find that the ancient book was constantly emitting spiritual light, which was extremely mysterious!
