On a late autumn morning, Lingyun Peak already had a light frost. With the west wind, leaves appeared in the misty sky, making the whole mountain seem even more desolate.

The Golden Scale Beast had also left the Beast House early, heading straight for the peach tree in the courtyard.

It growled softly at the Wood Demon, wanting it to escape.

But upon discovering that the Wood Demon was completely motionless, it lost interest.

It looked towards the Spirit Field, intending to rush over.

At this moment, the courtyard door opened, and Ye Jingcheng emerged from the room. Ye Jingcheng looked exceptionally weary, with bloodshot eyes and an expressionless gaze.

Yet there was a hint of joy in his eyes. Two Five Poison Bees perched on his shoulders.

As he raised his finger, the two Five Poison Bees flew up from his shoulders, then hovered in the air.

They shot poison needles at the Golden Scale Beast.

Their movements were extremely agile, unlike regular Five Poison Bees.

The Golden Scale Beast was startled and quickly gathered Golden Light to forcibly block the Five Poison Needles.

Its lively eyes showed some confusion and anger. Typically, those Five Poison Bees wouldn't dare to target it.

Moreover, it noticed that these two Five Poison Bees were unusually agile and perfectly coordinated.

It bared its teeth, pressing its two front paws, and Earth Spikes glowed swiftly.

However, the two Five Poison Bees seemed to have anticipated this and darted past.

The Golden Scale Beast grew even angrier.

It was about to unleash the Earth Spike Array but was stopped by Ye Jingcheng.

"Golden Scale, stop! Don't touch these two Five Poison Bees!"

Then he extended his hand, and the two Five Poison Bees landed on it.

Looking at the two thumb-sized Five Poison Bees, Ye Jingcheng was extremely satisfied.

These two Five Poison Bees' Divine Souls were now invaded by him, refined into soul avatars.

After Ye Jingyong's wedding, the clan wasn't planning his return to Cloud Valley, so he practiced the Celestial Soul Technique within the clan.

Two months later, he finally succeeded in Soul Split.

But unlike the Mad Corpse Fiends, Ye Jingcheng had no Corpse Refinement to invade.

He only had the Five Poison Bees.

Ye Jingcheng wouldn't use Soul Split for combat but for cultivation; the Five Poison Bees were a good medium.

This kind of soul splitting reduces harm to the main body and allows quicker recovery.

To achieve the Earth Soul realm would require multiple Soul Fusions.

He could refine Jade Soul Pills for fast recovery, making soul splitting more suitable for him.

Yet despite this, his eye showed some fatigue.

Ye Jingcheng placed the two Five Poison Bees in his Spirit Beast Bag.

Though soul splitting was beneficial, it could easily be eliminated. The safest option is storing them in the Spirit Beast Bag.

"Hiss!" As if hearing Ye Jingcheng's voice, the Jade Qilin Snake also poked its snake head out, its White Jade Snake Head shimmered even more brightly, its hump quite visible.

A sense of hunger emanated from its Divine Soul, but Ye Jingcheng was used to this.

For the past two months, he focused on cultivation, neglecting beast feeding, yet the Jade Qilin Snake persisted knowing he was not to be disturbed.

He pulled out Spirit Pills and Spiritual Flesh, feeding each beast one by one.

While feeding, he sensed the spiritual breath of each Spirit Beast.

Ye Jingcheng, despite not seeing the beasts, had a clear sense of their cultivation progress.

For his Beast Communication Pattern transmitted waves of spiritual energy evident at each pulse.

Yet to know each beast's state, which requires extra rewards or increased training, requires daily observation.

As a Beast Taming Clan member, Ye Jingcheng excelled at this.

Now within him, Fire Phase and Water Phase were almost balanced, while Earth Phase slightly lagged behind, and Wood Phase was far off.

But seeing the Three-Colored Cloud Deer returning from absorbing raindrops, Ye Jingcheng smiled contentedly once again.

The Three-Colored Cloud Deer's spiritual energy waves had strengthened considerably, reaching what seemed like the Qi Cultivation Eighth Layer, its antlers more vibrant.

It bleated, wings fluttered as if walking on clouds, exuding an extraordinary aura.

Reaching Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer, it could be fed Wood Attribute Inner Core or Tier Two High-grade Spirit Medicine, enhancing its chances of breaking into Tier Two.

Of course, if it communicated with the Wood Demon, it might reach Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer, using two Wood Attribute Spirit Beasts to form a balance.

Though this wouldn't break the Great Realm, transitioning from Early Stage to Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment was feasible.

Otherwise, achieving Tier Two might take five or six years.

Foundation Establishment was indeed a significant threshold.

Contemplating this, Ye Jingcheng took out four Spirit Transformation Pills, distributing them among his beasts.

The Ye Family's actions would begin in about half a year, enhancing their spiritual wisdom was beneficial.

Moreover, the clan supplied these spirit medicines, improving his Spirit Beasts was agreeable to Ye Jingcheng.

Having looked at the Spirit Beasts, he moved towards the beehive beside him.

His previously performed Blood Contract now seemed to show signs of hatching.

This involved over two thousand Five Poison Bees.

Approaching the hive, he saw young bees constantly emerging from the hive's entrance.

These Five Poison Bees were larger than those Ye Jingcheng previously hatched.

Though not many, they indicated better quality in the Queen Bee and Xiong Feng.

Also, among these bee swarms, Ye Jingcheng found ten Queen Bees and thirty Xiong Feng Bees.

This expanded his beehive, already allowing for family sales.

Of course, priority goes to Ye Jingli, as he had mentioned before.

With enough Five Poison Bees now, providing some to him was timely.

Ye Jingcheng then examined the Treasure Book, discovering twelve bees could open it, though all were ordinary worker bees.

This disappointed Ye Jingcheng.

Only Queen Bees and Xiong Feng Bees could be nurtured.

But he shook his head; despite only twelve high-potential bees, he could select five hundred strong bees from them and form a Five Poison Bee swarm with them and even the Six-Colored Poison Bees.

Then, even regular Foundation Establishment cultivators would need to be cautious.

Ye Jingcheng was quite satisfied with this.

He took out some spiritual honey to feed the young bees; meanwhile, to prevent accidents, he performed the Blood Contract again.

Regular Five Poison Bees remained under the Child Blood Contract, while Queen Bees had the Master Blood Contract.

This ensured absolute control over the hive.

Ye Jingcheng even ground a few Spirit Transformation Pills into powder, giving them to the twelve more talented Five Poison Bees.

This enhanced their wisdom, increasing their usefulness at crucial times!
