My Beasts Grind Proficiency For Me

It wasn’t just one Demon King who had his eyes on him now. The three Demon Kings from the Moon Demon King’s Demon Realm and several other Demon Kings from different Demon Realms were all watching him covetously.

And that was to say nothing of the master of this sea region, the Jade Poison Great Saint.

"I prefer peace and quiet, and I rarely go out, so I’m not very familiar with the terrain in this sea."

Yang Jing said, his arm around the Female Cultivator.

The moment he said this, the expressions of the four Demon Cultivators in the cabin changed, and they looked ready to pounce.

"However, I have an Innate Divine Technique that allows me to sniff out Spiritual Mechanisms in the water. For up to three days, no trace of a target’s residual Magical Power can escape my tongue."

"Oh my, General, you have such an ability? Why didn’t you say so sooner?"

Yang Jing felt the Female Cultivator press against him as if she were a boneless, beautiful snake. Even the gloomy middle-aged Cultivator’s expression softened.

A Divine Technique like this would be incredibly useful for finding someone in the sea.

It was a pity they didn’t have the thief’s aura. Otherwise, they might have actually been able to find the person who stole the treasure.

Yang Jing wore a smug expression.

"It’s late today. Let’s rest for now and set out to find the thief tomorrow."

The Demon Cultivators brought out a collection of fine wine and Spiritual Food they had stored on the Flying Boat to share with Yang Jing. They had already been patrolling the sea for several days with a Snake Demon they had found, and now their Magical Power was depleted. They planned to cultivate for a night to recover.

Only now did they begin to treat Yang Jing as a potential partner, not just disposable cannon fodder.

As cups of wine were exchanged, Yang Jing learned of their origins. The four were all disciples of the Northern Demon Sect from the Northern Continent. The two Demon Cultivators with Golden Core Cultivation were Inner Sect Disciples, while the other two were Outer Disciples.

The gloomy middle-aged man was called Sun Ruxiu. The other tall Demon Cultivator was his junior brother, Xiong Shuangquan. The last one, a rather timid man named Qi Ma who was ordered around by the other two, held the lowest status among the four.

The remaining Female Cultivator was named Chen Yanwen.

To deal with them, Yang Jing had casually adopted the alias Si Bing.

Many of the Demons in the Jade Poison Demon Saint’s Demon Country took the surname "Si," following the Saint’s example. Furthermore, due to a lack of culture and education, many shared the same given and family names. Thus, the name Si Bing that Yang Jing had chosen was not out of place.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Yang Jing stood up with his arm around Chen Yanwen, looking as if he was ready to go to a room and have some fun. The other two Demon Cultivators immediately shot furtive glances toward Sun Ruxiu.

Sun Ruxiu’s face flushed red, then turned ashen.

He glanced at his junior brother.

"She’s just a woman. Let this Demon play with her for a few days. Once we find that thief, I’ll make him pay it back a thousand, no, ten thousand times over."

Yang Jing led the boneless-seeming Chen Yanwen into a cabin. Just as Chen Yanwen was about to use her Enchanting Soul Technique on him, Yang Jing moved even faster. A wisp of Nine Nether Mirage Demon Qi instantly seized her mind.

Against an Outer Sect Cultivator from a Demon Sect with such a shallow foundation and impure Magical Power, Yang Jing didn’t even need to use verbal persuasion. He went straight to the point and asked her his previous questions again to verify the truth of her information.

Chen Yanwen immediately told him everything she knew, holding nothing back, and even revealed the true intentions of the four Demon Cultivators.

Sun Ruxiu and his group had no real expectation of getting lucky and finding the thief. Instead, they planned to take advantage of the chaos in the sea to plunder the local Demons and make a fortune.

Although the Jade Poison Great Saint’s exploitation was severe, this sea region was surrounded by three Demon Realms. The outer Demon Realms formed a natural Spirit Locking Array, trapping both Muddy Qi and Spiritual Qi within the area, which made its natural resources incredibly abundant.

And so, the four of them had decided to target the Demons.

It was only after Yang Jing revealed his ability to sniff out Spiritual Mechanisms in the sea that they seriously considered tracking down the thief.

"Aren’t the Demon People under the Jade Poison Great Saint’s command issued Demon-Seeding Talismans? If we were implanted with a Taiyin Seed, wouldn’t we be mistaken for the treasure thief, with no way to defend ourselves?"

Yang Jing instantly spotted the flaw in their plan.

"Hee hee."

Chen Yanwen let out a delicate laugh like a string of silver bells.

"That Demon-Seeding Talisman is just a Tier One Talisman. My Northern Demon Sect is a major sect specializing in Talismans. That old devil Sun Ruxiu has a Magical Treasure called the Light Condensing Mirror that can disable the Demon-Seeding Talismans. With this Treasure Mirror, won’t we be like fish in water here in the sea?"

Yang Jing knew very little about the Demon Sects of the Northern Continent, his knowledge based mostly on scattered hearsay. He hadn’t expected the Demon Cultivators of the Northern Demon Sect to have such methods.

He tapped the Wanhua Child, ordering it to create an Illusion Realm that would simulate the two of them locked in a fierce battle all night. Then he tossed Chen Yanwen onto the bed, took out a Meditation Cushion, and sat on it cross-legged to focus on cultivating his Qi.

Chen Yanwen cried out strangely all night, her voice growing hoarse by the latter half of the night.

At daybreak, Yang Jing unhurriedly began to refine the Demon-Catching Tripod, drawing out all the Nine Nether Mirage Demon Qi from Chen Yanwen’s body to avoid leaving any clues. He then stored the Demon-Catching Tripod in his Inner World.

After a long while, Chen Yanwen opened her eyes. When she saw the Snake Demon that Yang Jing had transformed into, a look of deep satisfaction spread across her face.

"I’ve heard that snakes are lustful by nature, but only today have I truly experienced it. My lord, you have such amazing stamina. You’ve made me feel like a real woman."

A strange look flickered across Yang Jing’s face. He wanted to drag the Wanhua Child out and demand to know just what kind of Illusion Realm it had created for the woman.

Chen Yanwen tried to stand up but found it difficult to even move her body.

"Dearest, please go tell my senior brothers that I need to rest for another half a day."

Yang Jing could only feign a look of thorough satisfaction as he left the cabin.

Sun Ruxiu and the other two were already up, having waited in the Flying Boat’s main cabin for a long time.

When Sun Ruxiu saw Yang Jing stroll leisurely out of the cabin and heard his reason—that Chen Yanwen needed to rest for another half a day—his face stiffened. He felt as if he’d been thoroughly cuckolded.

"Time is short. We set out immediately."

As he spoke, he activated the Flying Boat.

Although this Flying Boat wasn’t small, it lacked a Spiritual Eye Object to supply Spiritual Qi, so it could still only be considered a small-sized Flying Boat. Besides Evil Stones and Spirit Stones, it could also be powered by a Cultivator’s Magical Power.

To avoid consuming too much of his Magical Power, Sun Ruxiu reluctantly embedded nine Middle Grade Evil Stones into the Flying Boat’s Array.

Soon, the Flying Boat began Tunneling through the sea. Its speed through the water was comparable to a Foundation Establishment Cultivator’s flight, which in Yang Jing’s eyes was as slow as a crawling ant, but Sun Ruxiu was already quite proud of it.

"General Si, we have already searched the sea region near the Taiyin Marketplace. This time, we’ll wait until we reach the Inner Domain of the Jade Poison Kingdom before we begin the search."

Although Sun Ruxiu wished he could tear Yang Jing to shreds, he still explained with a forced smile.

"Brother Sun, for Yanwen’s sake, I will certainly do my best."

Yang Jing said, patting his chest.

Sun Ruxiu’s expression froze, and his smile became even uglier.

The Flying Boat was Tunneling through the sea for over two hours. During this time, they encountered several groups of Demon Cultivators who wanted to rob them, but they were all intimidated by the people on the boat. One group of Demon Cultivators with weak Power was, in turn, plundered by Sun Ruxiu and his men.

To vent his anger, Sun Ruxiu was particularly ruthless, even ripping the Divine Souls of those Demon Cultivators from their bodies and collecting them in a Jade Bottle, preparing to use them to draw Demon Talismans.

The Flying Boat tunneled through the sea for two hours before Sun Ruxiu finally brought it to a stop.

"General Si, this is a key hub in the Jade Poison Kingdom. If the thief wants to escape the country, they might have passed through here. Why don’t you go out and have a sniff, see if you can find any trace of them."

He spoke to Yang Jing with great courtesy.

But with his Sword Heart Clarity, how could Yang Jing not see that Sun Ruxiu already hated him to the bone?

Yang Jing swaggered out of the Flying Boat, flicked out his snake’s tongue, and sniffed the air for show before returning to the boat.

"Did you find anything, General?"
