Clan Cultivation: Starting from Beast Taming

After cleaning up the battlefield, the middle-aged man with the long whiskers led the way, and Zhou Chun left the scene with him.

On the way to Jingguo Country, Zhou Chun learned of the long-whiskered middle-aged man's name and background.

According to him, he was a disciple of Flying Cloud Sword Sect of Fengguo, a cultivation Sect that had been exterminated by the Corpse Demon Sect decades ago. His name was Zhao Xin.

Decades ago, just like the Sanjue Sect, the Flying Cloud Sword Sect stood against the Corpse Demon Sect and, without the luck of Sanjue Sect, was met with a brutal annihilation by the Corpse Demon Sect, whose higher echelon was mostly refined into corpse puppets.

Zhao Xin and some disciples of Flying Cloud Sword Sect had luckily escaped through a secret passage before their Sect was destroyed.

These people were supposed to find a place to reestablish the teachings of the Flying Cloud Sword Sect, but most of them were so terrified by the Corpse Demon Sect's power that they wanted to disperse and seek their own paths after escaping.

Only Zhao Xin and a few others, driven by their deep hatred for the Corpse Demon Sect's killing of their teachers and loved ones, were determined to rebuild their Sect and seek revenge against the Corpse Demon Sect.

Zhao Xin coincidentally encountered the fierce battle between Zhou Chun and the thin, tall middle-aged man on his way to the Jinchang Marketplace, and then the idea to use Zhou Chun's power for revenge was born.

Of course, all this was just Zhao Xin's side of the story, and Zhou Chun was not able to verify it at the time.

Thus, he did not reveal his true identity and continued to deal with the other party using his alias, Han Yuan from Cangzhou.

After traveling together for two days, they finally arrived at the Xianyun Marketplace in Yunzhou of Jingguo Country.

Because the Fire Divine Jackal's presence was too conspicuous, Zhou Chun stored it away before entering the marketplace.

Although his reputation had spread in Yunzhou, he had not openly shown his face in these parts for many years, so there were not many who truly recognized him, which meant he was not easily identifiable.

Upon entering the marketplace, the two went to an inn and opened two guest rooms to stay in.

Afterward, Zhao Xin began to remove the Divine Sense imprint of the thin, tall middle-aged man from the Storage Pouch.

Zhou Chun also took the opportunity to inventory the spoils from his battle with Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu died by his hand, and all his belongings fell into Zhou Chun's possession.

This included the silver-white Embroidered Handkerchief Magic Tool that surprised him, as well as the black wine jug Magic Artifact.

Having had no time to examine them closely before, Zhou Chun took the Embroidered Handkerchief in his hand and carefully observed it, finding that it felt quite soft and silky, like high-quality silk.

He had originally thought the material would have been made from some sort of Spirit Gold spun into thread.

"Considering the hardness and elasticity of that silver thread, if it really comes from the silken thread of a creature, that being must be at least a third-order Demon Beast, or even fourth-order!" Zhou Chun inwardly marveled, wondering whether this Magic Artifact had originally come from Zhou Yu's family inheritance or his own fortuitous encounters.

In any case, it was definitely a rare and exquisite Magic Artifact, possibly even more valuable than the golden gourd Magic Artifact he had taken from Zhou Yu after killing him.

The golden gourd Magic Artifact, named "Golden Qi Gourd," could absorb a vast amount of Golden Qi in advance and then release it as a golden rainbow.

Although the released golden rainbow was extremely powerful, it only had the strength of one strike.

Afterward, if one wished to use the Magic Artifact again, they would need to infuse it with a large quantity of high-quality Golden Qi.

Zhou Chun himself needed to absorb a certain amount of Golden Qi in the process of his cultivation, which he used to have sourced from Cangzhou.

The amount of Golden Qi this Magic Artifact consumed in a single use could support his cultivation for two to three years, so despite its powerful capability, its practicality was not very high.

In comparison, Zhou Chun actually favored this Embroidered Handkerchief Magic Tool and decided on the spot to use it as his usual Magic Artifact from then on.

As for the black wine jug Magic Artifact, Zhou Chun studied it a bit and then put it into his Storage Pouch.

It was a decent Magic Artifact but unsuitable for his use since it tended to be more defensive in nature.

Zhou Chun then opened Zhou Yu's Storage Pouch.

As he expected, it contained some Toad Cream stored in jade bottles.

Zhou Yu had stolen the Black Jade Toad for over ten years, acquiring quite a bit of Toad Cream from it.

However, not knowing the method to produce Spirit Spice with Toad Cream, she had to keep most of it unused and just stored it.

Besides these somewhat useful Toad Cream, Zhou Chun found no more valuable items in Zhou Yu's Storage Pouch except for over three thousand Spirit Coins.

On the other hand, the Storage Pouch belonging to her grandson yielded several fine first-grader top-quality Magic Artifacts and thousands of Spirit Coins for Zhou Chun.

After tallying the items, Zhou Chun focused on meditating to recover his Mana.

About two hours into his meditation, the alarm Formation outside his room was suddenly triggered, so he had to end his meditation early and open the door.

"I apologize for interrupting Taoist Friend Han's cultivation," said Zhao Xin, who apologized upon seeing the door open and then explained his purpose.

"Senior Zhao is too polite. Please, come in and take a seat," Zhou Chun hospitably invited the visitor in and then took the Storage Pouch Zhao Xin was holding to inspect its contents.

As a Purple Mansion Phase Cultivator of the Corpse Demon Sect, the thin, tall man's Storage Pouch naturally contained quite a few items.
