Clan Cultivation: Starting from Beast Taming-Chapter 631 - 325: Zhou Xinlan’s Opportunity, Tianjing Conference [Subscribe Requested]_2

Chapter 631: Chapter 325: Zhou Xinlan’s Opportunity, Tianjing Conference [Subscribe Requested]_2

Zhou Chun exclaimed “Good!” and immediately raised his hand to slap his storage pouch at his waist, retrieving a jade bottle containing a Foundation Establishment Pill and tossed it to Zhou Xinlan.

After Zhou Xinlan caught the jade bottle and opened it with a look of joy to check the elixir inside, Zhou Chun continued, “Now that you have the Foundation Establishment Pill, prepare for your Foundation Establishment. Don’t leave the Zhou Family Mountain again.”

“Yes, junior obeys,” Zhou Xinlan responded loudly with happiness and cheerfully left the Central Peace Hall.

As for Zhou Chun, he looked at the two Blue Feather Fire Kite eggs in his hands and fell into deep thought.

The Blue Feather Fire Kite, being a mid-level Demon Beast, not only serves as an excellent mount beast but is also a combat spirit pet with potential and strength that is no less inferior to that of Zhu Yunhe.

Deciding whom to allocate these two Blue Feather Fire Kite eggs to for hatching indeed warranted serious consideration by Zhou Chun.

...

Currently, among the elders of the Zhou Family, only the sixth elder, Zhou Jiapeng’s spirit pet, the Golden Winged Iron Feather Hawk, is a second-tier Demon Beast. While the other elders all have high-grade first-tier demon spirit pets, none has managed to cultivate their spirit pets to the second tier.

Therefore, these Blue Feather Fire Kite eggs, which would grow into second-tier Demon Beasts upon maturation, are most certainly coveted by these elders.

However, Zhou Chun felt that giving both Demon Beast eggs to the elders would not fully utilize their potential.

“Considering how quickly that lad Xinyan is approaching adulthood and the rate at which his cultivation level is increasing, he will likely reach the full twelve layers of the Qi Refinement Realm by the age of thirty. If I give him a Blue Feather Fire Kite egg now, by the time he succeeds in Foundation Establishment, this Demon Beast would also be nearly matured!”

“Giving the junior with the best aptitude in the family a mid-level Demon Beast egg — I imagine none of the elders would object to that!”

Murmuring to himself, he gradually devised a plan in his mind.

Soon, the news that Zhou Xinlan had offered two Blue Feather Fire Kite eggs in exchange for a Foundation Establishment Pill spread throughout the Zhou Family Mountain, and every Zhou Family Cultivator who heard it couldn’t help but envy such a fortune.

Then, many Qi Refinement cultivators began to worry about the number of Foundation Establishment Pills available to the family.

Because the two Foundation Establishment Pills initially given by Lin Hongyu could not be made public, openly, the Zhou Family only had two Foundation Establishment Pills purchased from Glory Country and two exchanged from Green Lotus Temple.

Out of these four pills, Zhou Zhengyong and Zhou Zhengtao each used one, and now Zhou Xinlan had exchanged for another one.

To those Zhou Family Cultivators unaware of the full situation, it seemed the family had only one Foundation Establishment Pill left.

But let’s not forget, the Zhou Family currently has Zhou Xinyan, a clan member with a high-grade Spirit Root Aptitude.

According to family rules, a clan member with high-grade Spirit Root Aptitude is directly considered a “Foundation Establishment Seed” of the family and must be given priority to be provided with a Foundation Establishment Pill.

If Zhou Chun were to strictly adhere to this rule now, it would mean that other Zhou Family Cultivators, even if they accumulate five thousand merit points, wouldn’t be able to exchange for a Foundation Establishment Pill.

Thinking this, several Qi Refinement cultivators of the Zhou Family who were only a few merit points short of five thousand immediately became restless and approached Zhou Chun both openly and subtly with this concern.

“Rest assured, the family currently has two remaining Foundation Establishment Pills. As long as you can gather merit points in time, there is still hope of exchanging for one,” Zhou Chun declared, addressing a matter of the family’s credibility in order to reassure everyone.

With this assurance, those clan members felt relieved.

Over the next three months, Zhou Xinlan successfully completed Foundation Establishment and became the seventh Foundation Establishment cultivator of the Zhou Family.

His success also made Zhou Zhengyong and his son a topic of conversation for a while.

A family with both father and son as Foundation Establishment cultivators and both as elders.

Such a scenario, even among Golden Core noble families, was not very common.

This successful case further inspired the other Zhou Family Cultivators to strive with confidence.

If Zhou Xinlan could discover a mid-level Demon Beast laying eggs and thus obtain a substantial reward of merit points with the help of a family elder,

Why couldn’t they?

Zhou Family Cultivators could receive varying amounts of merit points by offering Spiritual Objects to the family. Even if they didn’t have as significant a discovery as Zhou Xinlan, they could still accumulate little by little until they reached their goal.

For Zhou Chun, he was quite pleased to see such a development.

As the Clan Leader, he wished to see his clan members actively striving and progressing, for only then could the family be vibrant and full of life.

As time gradually passed, three years after the news of Tianjing True Person breaking the elixir to form the Nascent Soul had gone by, “Tianjing Villa” finally released an official announcement.

On this day, Zhou Chun was cultivating in his room with his visiting dao companion Su Yuzhen, when suddenly, the alarm array outside the courtyard was triggered repeatedly.

Generally speaking, if someone simply came to look for him, they would only trigger the alarm array once and wait for him to open the door.

Only when something extremely important to the family had occurred would someone continuously trigger the alarm array to indicate an emergency.

Therefore, after noticing this, Zhou Chun immediately finished his cultivation, rose to his feet, and said to his dao companion, who was also preparing to conclude her practice, “Madam, please continue your cultivation. There might be something happening in the family; your husband will go have a look.”

Having said this, he quickly walked out of the room and opened the courtyard door.

Outside the courtyard door, he saw a junior family member, who was responsible for recording documents in the Central Peace Hall, looking anxious.

As soon as the junior saw him open the door, he hurriedly bowed respectfully and said, “A messenger from Tianjing Villa has delivered an invitation. The Fourth Elder is currently entertaining them, and specifically sent me to respectfully invite the Clan Leader.”

Hearing this, Zhou Chun’s expression instantly became solemn, and he nodded slightly, replying, “This seat is aware.”

Having said that, he took to the air and flew towards the family’s guest reception area.

When he entered the guest hall, he saw Zhou Jiarui sitting opposite a middle-aged man in blue, both enjoying the Zhou Family’s secret Honey Flower Tea.

Seeing him approach, Zhou Jiarui quickly stood up and introduced him to the blue-clothed man, “Taoist Friend Yan, this is Zhou Zhengchun, the Clan Leader of the Zhou Family.”

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man in blue also stood up and greeted Zhou Chun with a cupped fist salute, “Yan Chu has met Clan Leader Zhou.”

“Taoist Friend Yan has been met.”

Zhou Chun returned the salute and then directly asked, “May I inquire as to the reason Taoist Friend Yan has graced the Zhou Family with his visit today?”

“Of course, it’s a happy occasion!”

Yan Chu smiled, and with a slap on his storage pouch, he took out a finely crafted invitation and handed it to Zhou Chun.

“After our elder broke the Elixir to form his Nascent Soul, he took pity on the hardships faced by us cultivators in our practice and has graciously decided to hold a lecture for the benefit of the younger cultivators who are still in the dark, to guide them through their confusion and answer their questions.”

“This invitation serves as a pass for the conference, allowing ten people to enter and listen. Please keep it safe, Clan Leader Zhou.”

The Tianjing True Person is going to hold a conference to expound on the Dao?

Zhou Chun was momentarily taken aback by Yan Chu’s words, and subconsciously took the invitation into his hands.

On the invitation, the four characters for “Tianjing Conference” were striking and dazzling. Just one glance made Zhou Chun’s eyes sting, forcing him to hurriedly close his eyes and turn his head away, daring not to look again.

His heart was filled with shock.

Is this the divine skill of a Nascent Soul Stage True Person?

Merely a few characters made it difficult for him, a mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, to even look at them, let alone withstand them—truly frightening!

Quickly, he covered the invitation with his sleeve, and with narrowed eyes, he looked at Yan Chu and inquired, “Dare I ask Taoist Friend Yan, does every cultivation family have one of these invitations? Do the three great sects have them as well?”

Upon hearing his question, Yan Chu couldn’t help showing a pleased expression as he responded, “Our elder has prepared three hundred invitations, inviting only three thousand cultivators to participate in this conference. Not every cultivation family is eligible to attend.”

After a slight pause, he continued with a meaningful look at Zhou Chun, “As for the three great sects, naturally, a few of our elder uncles have already delivered invitations!”

“I see, Zhou understands. I thank Taoist Friend Yan for traveling such a long distance to deliver this invitation, and I am grateful for the Tianjing True Person’s consideration for the Zhou Family. Zhou offers his thanks here!”

Upon finishing, Zhou Chun promptly gave Yan Chu a deep bow to express his gratitude.

However, he did not commit to attending the conference.

This caused Yan Chu to frown slightly, and then he nodded and said, “Since Clan Leader Zhou has accepted the invitation, Yan will not impose any further. I have other matters to attend to, farewell!”

“Taoist Friend Yan, take care. Zhou shall escort you out,” said Zhou Chun as he really did accompany Yan Chu all the way to the mountain gate.

Not until he had watched Yan Chu turn into a small black dot and disappear in the distance, did Zhou Chun lower his head to look at the back of the invitation in his hand, his eyes filled with a somber hue.

“A Nascent Soul Stage True Person’s conference on the Dao, what a once-in-a-millennium opportunity this is!”

Murmuring to himself, he immediately took the invitation and hurried to the cave dwelling on the mountain peak.
