Clan Cultivation: Starting from Beast Taming-Chapter 546 - 285: Earth Armored Dragon, Cave Dwelling [Subscribe Requested]

Having Lin Hongyu come to Yang Kingdom to mine the Earth Origin Crystal Jade vein?

When Zhou Mingde heard Zhou Chun’s idea, he was slightly startled as well.

Then his eyes lit up, and he couldn’t help but clap his hands and exclaimed, "Brilliant! This plan is absolutely brilliant!"

Because Zhou Daoyi staunchly opposed it, Zhou Mingde had always regretted not being able to invite Lin Hongyu into the Zhou Family.

And he had never given up on persuading Zhou Daoyi and Lin Hongyu to become Dao companions.

But now, Zhou Chun’s suggestion suddenly made him realize that perhaps there was more than one way to integrate Lin Hongyu into the Zhou Family than by wedding her to Zhou Daoyi.

Clearly, compared to marrying Zhou Daoyi, the temptation of Core Formation was much greater for Lin Hongyu.

And if she could take possession of the Earth Origin Crystal Jade vein, Lin Hongyu’s path to Core Formation would undoubtedly be much smoother.

For this reason, even joining the Zhou Family and becoming a guest Supreme Elder seemed like nothing at all.

"Let’s do it this way! This matter is settled!"

Without much thought, Zhou Mingde quickly finalized the decision.

Then he and Zhou Chun discussed in detail the reserve situation of the Earth Origin Crystal Jade vein.

After such an exploration, the two basically confirmed that this was a small vein.

Although it was only a small vein, given the preciousness of Earth Origin Crystal Jade, the entire vein’s value was in no way inferior to that of the Mystical Crystal Stone Mine in the Wasteland Territory.

If Lin Hongyu could truly secure this vein in her own hands, with the yield from this vein, she would have a complete chance to make a breakthrough to the Golden Core Stage.

"Let’s leave it at that for now; we’ll talk about the rest after the insect plague is dealt with!"

In the midst of the mountains, Zhou Mingde looked at the entrance that had been re-sealed and gently clapped his hands, saying to Zhou Chun beside him.

Priorities must be set.

Right now, dealing with the insect plague is still the first and foremost matter.

As long as the insect plague is not eradicated, Yang Kingdom could not be considered a safe place, and naturally, the mining of the Earth Origin Crystal Jade vein wouldn’t be under discussion.

So after checking the site one more time and making sure there were no problems, Zhou Chun and Zhou Mingde continued to look for things that could counter the Demon Insects within the boundaries of Yang Kingdom.

In seven days, the two from the Zhou Family almost covered the areas of Yang Kingdom previously ravaged by the insect plague.

Along the way, they did find some things that had a restraining effect on the Demon Insects, which were not entirely fruitless findings.

But even without testing, both knew in their hearts that those things they found probably wouldn’t be of much use.

So, while letting Zhou Jiawei use the found items to study insecticidal poisons, they continued to wander around Yang Kingdom, hoping for more discoveries.

One day, Zhou Chun and Zhou Mingde, referencing the map of Yang Kingdom obtained from the marketplace, arrived at a rare plain within the territory of Yang Kingdom.

It was said that the insect plague initially erupted right from this plain, and hundreds of millions of mortals who lived on it were directly devoured by the swarm in less than half a month’s time, a truly horrifying tale.

Now, the plain had been scorched to barrenness, and most of the cities where mortals once lived had become ruins.

The desolate and dilapidated scene was genuinely heart-wrenching.

One couldn’t imagine the despair of those mortals who died during the insect plague!

To watch helplessly as they were nibbled and swallowed by the Demon Insects, to see the entire city’s people being devoured to extinction by the Demon Insects as if they were mere food.

Just thinking about it could make one feel suffocated.

After investigating several city ruins, Zhou Chun and Zhou Mingde gave up on exploring them.

There really was nothing to explore in those ruins; everything that could be devoured by the Demon Insects had been devoured, not even a human bone was left behind.

By giving up on exploring the city ruins, the speed of their investigation markedly increased, and in less than two days, they had explored all parts of the plain.

Unfortunately, the result was disappointing; they didn’t find anything noteworthy on the plain.

However, just as they were about to return to Dayun Nation to rest after an unproductive search, a turn of events suddenly occurred.

At the time, they were leaving the plain, heading towards Dayun Nation.

The moment they were about to leave the plain, they suddenly heard a rumbling sound in the distance.

Turning their heads towards the direction where the rumbling came from, they saw no trace of spiritual light.

Seeing this, their interest was piqued, and they immediately rushed in that direction.

After flying out for more than a hundred miles, they finally discovered the source of the rumbling sound.

In a secluded valley, several Cultivators were engaged in a relentless battle with a Demon Beast that resembled a pangolin.

The beast, like a pangolin, was covered with fine scales, had a curly big tail, and a sharp long head; it was earth-yellow all over with a size comparable to a water buffalo.

The aura emanating from the beast was also very strong; it was a third-order middle-grade Demon Beast.

Recognizing it as a rare high-level Demon Beast called Earth Armored Dragon, Zhou Chun and Zhou Mingde, who came from a Beast Taming cultivator family, immediately identified its origins.

The Earth Armored Dragon, a rare high-level beast, preferred to dwell underground; its main diet consisted of bees, ants, and such insects.

They were adept at the Earth Escape Technique, and their noses were very sensitive, able to easily smell the scent of underground beehives and anthills through thick layers of earth, and then directly charge in for a hearty meal.
