Clan Cultivation: Starting from Beast Taming

They walked along the stone path, passing through gardens and courtyards.

The places they crossed bore remnants of battle, some reduced to ruins.

Clearly, they had encountered fierce fighting when they first passed through these areas.

After traversing corridors and courtyards for half an hour, they reached a tall enclosure wall.

In front of them stood a dozen or so feet high courtyard wall, topped with a blue protective barrier, stretching up to the white barrier in the sky.

Turning right and walking for a quarter of an hour, they arrived outside a large gate.

Looking up, they saw the words "Hundred Fruits Garden" inscribed on the gate's plaque.

Without lingering outside, Yan Qiyang swept his sleeve, sending forth a gust of wind to push open the gate, and then they both stepped inside.

Passing through the doorway, they were met with the sweet fragrance of fruit and flowers.

Looking around, they saw various distinctive Spirit Fruit Trees towering, some laden with plump fruits, others blossoming, and some even bare of leaves.

A closer look revealed that the trees bearing the Spirit Fruits were each protected by a blue Protective Barrier.

And those Spirit Fruits were treasures that any Purple Mansion Phase Cultivator would covet.

But neither Yan Qiyang nor Luo Qingni's gaze lingered on those fruits; instead, they walked with stern faces toward the depths of the garden.

Deep within the garden, there was a vast clearing with a Five-Colored Spirit Pond in the middle and an exotic Spirit Fruit Tree about a zhang tall nearby.

This tree's trunk and leaves were as transparent as jade and completely white. Among the branches, hung three dazzling Five Elements Spirit Fruits.

These fruits were only the size of a fist and looked like apples, surrounded by a halo of five colors.

Any knowledgeable Cultivator who came here would immediately recognize them as one of the best Nascent Soul Spirit Materials in the Cultivation World, the Five Elements Spirit Fruit.

Consuming the Five Elements Spirit Fruit could increase the success rate of forming a Golden Core by thirty percent for Purple Mansion Phase Cultivators practicing Five Elements Attribute Cultivation Techniques.

Even those cultivating Wind Element or Thunder Element Techniques could see an increase of more than ten percent in their success rates.

What was even better was that the effect of the Five Elements Spirit Fruit did not conflict with other Nascent Soul Spirit Materials and could be used in combination!

But the Five Elements Spirit Fruit was extremely rare, with only a few powerful forces with deep foundations able to harvest a few every several years.

And even in those powers possessing the Five Elements Spirit Fruit trees, the fruits were a treasure enjoyed by only a select few, off-limits even to Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators.

Under normal circumstances, a Loose Cultivator like Luo Qingni would never be able to obtain such Spiritual Objects, no matter how many Spirit Coins she offered.

But now, on this mysterious island, an unclaimed Five Elements Spirit Fruit tree with three ripe fruits stood before them!

At this moment, faced with the nearly within reach Five Elements Spirit Fruit, both Yan Qiyang's and Luo Qingni's hearts were anything but as calm as their faces suggested.

After casting a fervent gaze at the three Five Elements Spirit Fruits, their attention turned to the Five-Colored Spirit Pond.

Inside the pond, a Five-Colored Dragon Fish, about a zhang long, was staring at them with big golden eyes that showed a human-like disdain.

Of course, it had every right to look down on them, for it was a genuine Fourth-Grade Low-Level Demon Beast!

Last time, these two, along with another, came to snatch its guarded Five Elements Spirit Fruit, only to have one killed and both of them beaten and forced to flee with serious injuries.

Had it not been restrained to the Spirit Pond, they wouldn't have escaped last time.

"This beast is so arrogant. Once we seize the Five Elements Spirit Fruit and form our Golden Cores, we must return here to skin it and take its core for revenge on behalf of Brother Mo!" Yan Qiyang locked eyes with the Five-Colored Dragon Fish, his face darkened as he grumbled his harsh words.

After suffering a significant loss last time, barely escaping death, his resentment towards the Five-Colored Dragon Fish ran deep in his bones.

"Let's settle scores later. For today, let's focus on seizing the Five Elements Spirit Fruit," Luo Qingni said, tapping her Storage Pouch at her waist, and took out two large Puppets.

Her two Puppets, one a blue Tortoise Puppet in animal form and the other a humanoid Warrior Puppet, were both Third Order top-grade, equivalent to two Purple Mansion Late Stage Cultivators.

"Two Third Order top-grade Puppets! Taoist Friend Luo truly lives up to the name of an Alchemy Master; you have wide connections!" Yan Qiyang gazed admiringly at Luo Qingni's two Puppets.

Mechanism Puppets were not particularly rare in the Great Zhou Kingdom, and many could be bought in Marketplaces.

However, most Puppets available for purchase in Marketplaces were usually First Order, and Second Order Puppets were not openly sold.

Third Order Puppets only occasionally appeared in certain auctions.

Puppets like Luo Qingni's two Third Order top-grade ones were treasures not even commonly available in ordinary auctions.
