Kong Wenxuan's Self-Doubt, a Third-Tier Crystal Stone Vein

"Was the Wenxuan a success?"

Where is the Stone Disc Turtle?

At this moment, the clan leader, the second elder, the second aunt, and the eldest uncle all rushed up to the highest peak and looked at Kong Wenxuan to ask questions.

Kong Wenxuan nodded and said, "It's a success."

As he spoke, he activated the "Black Tortoise Command" in his hand, feeling the Law Power in his Dantian and the Spiritual Consciousness in his Sea of Consciousness rapidly flowing away and being poured into the "Black Tortoise Command." More than half of it was consumed, yet it still showed no sign of being replenished.

At this moment, he had no choice but to draw down the power of the "Peacock True Spirit Star" manifested in the sky, pouring it into the "Black Tortoise Command," and together with his Law Power and Spiritual Consciousness, he activated the "Command."

Finally, accompanied by a beastly roar, a large amount of mysterious light shot out from the "Command," and the Third Tier Stone Disc Turtle Demon Beast flew out with the mysterious light and landed on the ground in front of it.

Roar! Howl...

The Stone Disc Turtle Demon Beast, which had just emerged from the "Black Tortoise Command," was clearly enraged. It raised its head and let out a roar, showing a hint of aggression towards its surroundings.

Kong Wenxuan immediately activated the "Black Tortoise Command," and the mysterious light emitted from the Command fell on him, instantly subduing him. He lowered his head and growled, indicating his submission.

He shook his head, handed the "Black Tortoise Command" to the Second Elder, and said, "With our current cultivation and strength, activating this Treasure Artifact Command would consume too much energy. Second Elder, could you see if you could connect this ' Black Tortoise Command ' to that Third Tier treasure array and use the array's power to activate and control this Stone Disc Turtle beast?"

The Second Elder received the "Command" and immediately tried to activate Command, commanding the Stone Disc Turtle Demon Beast to take action.

Although the amount of Law Power and Spiritual Consciousness required at this time was far less than when Kong Wenxuan activated the "Black Tortoise Command", the continuous consumption still made the Second Elder's face turn pale quickly.

She quickly stopped activating the "Black Tortoise Command" and ceased commanding the Stone Disc Turtle Demon Beast, nodding and saying, "Controlling Third Tier Demon Beast across ranks is indeed too taxing."

"Nephew Wenxuan, your suggestion to combine the ' Black Tortoise Command ' with the grand formation is quite good. Let me take a look."

The clan leader, the eldest uncle, and the others breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing that the Stone Disc Turtle Demon Beast had indeed been subdued and controlled, and their faces immediately lit up with joy.

Regardless of how much energy was consumed by wielding a Third Tier Demon Beast across ranks, it at least shows that the Kong Household now finally has its first truly conventional Third Tier combatant.

As long as the Third Tier treasure array "Mountain and Water Layered Waves Formation" is set up, and combined with the Third Tier Stone Disc Turtle as a guardian beast, the security of the Kong Household's newly expanded territory and Lineage land will be greatly enhanced.

Even if Third Tier Demon Beast or even Demon Race race enemies attack in the future, this Third Tier treasure array, combined with the combat power of Third Tier beast taming, will definitely be enough to withstand the attack of Third Tier enemies.

This can be considered a preliminary relief for the Kong Household's worries.

At that moment, Clan Chief Kong Changlan, beaming with smiles, bowed deeply to Ya Zhaoying and said in gratitude, "Our Kong Household will never forget Senior Ya's kindness in helping us this time."

"From now on, if Senior Crow or the Ya Household has any instructions, our Kong Household will absolutely do our utmost!"

"Haha... no need to thank me." Ya Zhaoying waved her hand with a smile and said, "This was originally a promise I made to Friend Kong. Back then at ' Demon-Suppressing Pass,' I was ambushed and severely injured by the Demon Race race. It was thanks to Friend Kong's help that I was able to escape."

"Moreover, our two families have cooperated many times over the years to expose and stop the Du Household's calamity, to wipe out the Demon Beast tide that invaded Cuckoo Town, and to jointly eliminate the Cuckoo Demon Race and Demon Beast tide in the ' Five Peaks ' area. We can already be considered allies."

"We've always been helping each other, working together to fight the Demon Race and Demon Beast in these southern mountains."

"If Chief Kong truly wishes to thank me, once your Kong Household's Peacock County Seat is built, why not reserve a few shop locations for me within the county?"

"Haha... No problem!" Clan Chief Kong Changgeng immediately agreed, smiling as he said, "Senior Ya doesn't mind the simplicity of our Kong Household's newly built county town and is willing to do business with us. Our Kong Household Kong Household welcomes you more than ever."

"At that time, our Kong Household will not only give you several shops for free, but we will also exempt you from taxes on those shops for ten years."

"Alright! It's settled then." Ya Zhaoying agreed with a smile, and then said, "I've already checked Crescent Moon Lake at the foot of the mountain. There's only this Stone Disc Turtle, a Third Tier Demon Beast, in it. There are no other Third Tier Demon Beast there. As for the remaining Second Tier Demon Beast, your Kong Household can easily handle them yourselves."

"Therefore, I will not hinder your expansion of territory and construction of the county town any longer. I will return to ' Cuckoo Town ' first."

"If you encounter any difficult problems or enemies later, you can send me a message for help."

Before leaving, Ya Zhaoying spoke to Kong Wenxuan and the others again.

"Thank you, senior. Our territory is newly developed, and it's not convenient to entertain guests yet. Once Peacock County Seat is built, we will invite you to visit and give you a proper welcome!"

The Kong Household members immediately bowed in thanks and saw Ya Zhaoying.

Watching Ya Zhaoying pilot the "Fire Crow Treasure Boat" into the sky and disappear into the night, Kong Wenxuan even wondered if their wariness of the Ya Household was perhaps too much of a case of "judging others by one's own petty standards."

Perhaps, the calamity that befell the Du Household was simply Du Household to their own greed and misguided path, without any scheming by the Ya Household?

Perhaps, the Ya Household really is just a righteous and helpful "True Spirit Lineage"?

Or at least, is Ya Zhaoying a righteous, warm-hearted, and helpful senior from the Purple Mansion?

"Quick! Quick... let's go check the Crescent Moon Lake." At this moment, the Second Elder Kong Changlan's urgent words startled him from his thoughts and ideas, and he turned to look.

Then they saw the Second Elder Kong Changlan, riding on the back of the Stone Disc Turtle, controlling the Stone Disc Turtle Demon Beast as it crawled down to Crescent Moon Lake. At the same time, he said to Kong Wenxuan and the others:

"I've thought about it carefully. The reason this Stone Disc Turtle Demon Beast is able to master the ability to burrow underground must be because it ate some treasure in Crescent Moon Lake."

"Let's go down and take a look; we might find something."

Kong Wenxuan shook his head upon seeing this and said, "Second Elder, you should send the ' Stone Disc Turtle ' down to take a look. I will stay up here to protect you."

The eldest uncle Kong Yushuo, cultivated fire-elemental Law Power, and naturally did not want to enter Crescent Moon Lake, shaking his head to indicate that he would stay on the table.

In the end, only the clan leader, the second elder, and the second aunt rode the "Stone Disc Turtle" beast into Crescent Moon Lake to investigate.

The reason there are three people is to take turns controlling and activating the "Black Tortoise Command," so that the Law Power and Spiritual Consciousness of one or two people are not enough to consume the power of this Third Tier Treasure Artifact, the "Command."

As for the dangers in Crescent Moon Lake, the Kong Household members were not worried about the other Second Tier Demon Beast in the lake. With their Third Tier "Stone Disc Turtle" as their taming beast, they were already able to roam freely in Crescent Moon Lake.

Thus, the clan leader and the second elder rode the Stone Disc Turtle into Crescent Moon Lake, where they spent half an hour surveying the area.

Then, the clan chief emerged from the lake, his face beaming with joy, and said to the two, "We have indeed found something at the bottom of the lake. It's a Third Tier ' Crystal Stone ' vein, discovered deep beneath this highest peak, in a large cave eroded by the lake water."
