Clan Cultivation: Starting from Beast Taming

Persuading the Vajra Monkey Spirit to come to Longxing Valley was not a challenge for Zhou Chun; ever since he had enlightened the creature and turned it into a second-order Demon Beast, the Demon Monkey had become completely obedient to him.

Moreover, for the belligerent Vajra Monkey Spirit, fighting against various Demon Beasts in the Wasteland Territory was something it relished.

Upon hearing Zhou Chun's words, Zhou Zhengyong also clapped his hands joyfully and exclaimed, "This is truly wonderful! With the powerful addition of the Vajra Monkey Spirit, there will be no need to call on me for help every time Xu Fu and the others encounter some Demon Beasts that are difficult to deal with."

"Yes, that's what I was thinking,"

Zhou Chun nodded, agreeing with him.

Afterwards, Zhou Chun went to meet with Zhou Daoquan, who was secluded in Longxing Valley, to inform him of the recent changes within the family, so that he was in the loop.

After Zhou Chun finished speaking, Zhou Daoquan simply nodded lightly and said, "It's good that you brought that Vajra Monkey Spirit here, Zhengchun. With it and Zhengyong in the valley, I can occasionally leave to get some air and explore the Wasteland Territory!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chun immediately said, "Supreme Elder, if you are going to explore the Wasteland Territory, you must leave a reliable way to contact you. Otherwise, if there's an emergency and we can't find you, that would be problematic."

"I'm well aware of this. If I go out, I will leave Zhu Yunhe behind. In case of urgent matters, it can come find me,"

Zhou Daoquan nodded slightly, outlining his plan.

Thus, Zhou Chun naturally found no more reason to stay and soon returned to his family.

Little did Zhou Chun know that less than half a month after his return to the Zhou Family, a piece of news that shocked the entire Jingguo Country Cultivation Realm suddenly spread throughout Jingguo and even to the surrounding nations.

The content of the message was simple: the formerly number one Loose Cultivator of Jingguo, known as the "Tianjing Hermit," had successfully completed the Breaking the Elixir to Form the Nascent Soul!

A new Nascent Soul Stage True Person had emerged!

Before this, Jingguo had only the Moon Wheel Sect, Sunflame Sect, and Green Lotus Temple as the three major powers with Nascent Soul Stage True Persons, and the entire vast Jingguo Country had only seven Nascent Soul Stage True Persons.

Now that "Tianjing Hermit" had successfully formed his Nascent Soul, becoming Tianjing True Person, the number of Nascent Soul Stage True Persons in Jingguo had risen to eight.

But this was probably not good news for the Jingguo Country Cultivation Realm.

It should be noted that the power structure of the Jingguo Country Cultivation Realm had been established for a long time, with the three major powers already having every inch of Jingguo under their control.

The emergence of Tianjing True Person could very likely cause a shift in the power dynamic.

Once there's a Nascent Soul Stage True Person supporting it, "Tianjing Villa," which was once led by Tianjing True Person, would surely not be content to continue lying low in a corner as before.

And once "Tianjing Villa" began to expand its sphere of influence, it would inevitably clash with the interests of the three major powers.

Because of this, when Zhou Chun learned of this news, amidst his immense shock, his heart also filled with worries.

He knew that "Tianjing Villa," located in Lingzhou, bordered Lanzhou, and if "Tianjing Villa" truly expanded its influence, Green Lotus Temple would be the first to bear the brunt. The Zhou Family might also be forced into the fray, once again facing the risk of having to choose sides.

"It seems the heavens of Jingguo are about to change once more!"

Atop Pagoda Peak, Zhou Mingde also couldn't help but express his sentiment after hearing the news from Zhou Chun.

However, they all knew that no matter how the heavens of Jingguo changed, the Zhou Family was powerless in the face of such major changes and could only drift along with the current.

As a result, despite their immense worries, there was nothing they could do.

And indeed, they were not the most worried at this moment.

In fact, upon hearing the news of "Tianjing Hermit" successfully breaking his Golden Core to form the Nascent Soul, the most shocked and anxious person was none other than the Sect Leader of Green Lotus Temple, Master Qingwei.

"That sly old Tianjing! We've all been duped by him!"

"Looking back now, the injuries he sustained in the battle to conquer the south were entirely purposeful. He wanted to use recovering from his injuries as a pretext to secretly undergo the Nascent Soul Formation!"

Master Qingwei's face turned grim as she slumped onto the jade couch, her eyes filled with a mix of shock and anger.

Regret flooded her heart at this moment.

Had she known that "Tianjing Hermit's" so-called seclusion to heal was actually an attempt to form his Nascent Soul, she and Green Lotus Temple would have definitely tried to stop it.

"How did he succeed? With that less than ten percent success rate, how did he manage it?"

Master Qingwei's mouth hung open as she muttered to herself, having completely lost the demeanor of a Sect Leader.

He was also a Golden Elixir Cultivator, and although he had not yet reached the late Golden Core Stage, he knew everything he should know about Nascent Soul Formation.

The Qingxiao True Person, once a Nascent Soul Stage True Person from Green Lotus Temple, had said that the success rate of "Tianjing Hermit" breaking his Golden Core to form a Nascent Soul would not even be one in ten.

As a mid-Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator, Master Qingwei naturally did not doubt Qingxiao True Person's judgment.

So, when he first heard the news that "Tianjing Hermit" had gone into seclusion to recover from injuries, he did not take much notice.

After all, the injuries of "Tianjing Hermit" were also witnessed by Golden Elixir Cultivators from Green Lotus Temple with their own eyes, so there could be no mistake.

But reality was cruelly slapping him in the face, mocking him harshly!

It had always been him, Master Qingwei, who calculated and played with others, yet now he himself was being played like a fool.

At this moment, Master Qingwei's feelings were truly beyond description with mere words!

"Right, we still have our ancestor, our Supreme Elder! I shall go to see the Supreme Elder immediately!"

After an indeterminate amount of time, Master Qingwei suddenly leaped up, as if a drowning man had grasped a straw, his face flushed with excitement as he flew away from the Sect Leader's grand hall.

Soon, Master Qingwei arrived outside a valley at the deepest part of Green Lotus Temple's gate.

He stood outside the valley, looking at the valley shrouded in a white, dense Formation haze, and after slightly adjusting his appearance, he bowed deeply toward the valley and said, "Supreme Elder above, your disciple, Master Qingwei, humbly requests an audience with the Supreme Elder due to urgent matters!"

After finishing speaking, he maintained his bowing posture, waiting for a response.

A quarter of an hour passed by in this manner, then a venerable and authoritative voice rang in his ears. Read the latest on My Virtual Library Empire

"Come in."

As the voice fell, the mist in front of him churned, revealing a path that could accommodate a person's passage.

"Thank you, Supreme Elder."

Master Qingwei once again respectfully expressed his thanks, then entered the valley along the path.

Upon entering the valley, the rich Spiritual Energy that hit his face revitalized Master Qingwei's spirit, making him feel much invigorated.

Although it was not his first time experiencing this, his heart still could not help but sigh inwardly at that moment.

If he could also practice in such a place, there might not be no chance of breaking his Golden Core to form a Nascent Soul in the future.

Compared to the supremely dense Spiritual Energy here, the place where he, the Sect Leader, habitually practiced his daily cultivation was undoubtedly like the difference between a thatched hut and a palace!

Looking around, he saw that the valley was filled with various millennium-old Spiritual Medicines and rare Spirit Grasses rarely seen outside, with a quantity that surpassed what many Golden Elixir Cultivators not from major sects would see in their entire lives.

And deep within the valley, there was a pond about two acres in size, with mist billowing above it and a few verdant lotus leaves faintly visible within.

If other Golden Elixir Cultivators who had never come to this place saw this scene, they would certainly be shocked speechless.

Because that pond was in fact a tremendously large Spirit Eye Spring!

The mist billowing over the pond was actually the extremely dense nature's spiritual energy.

After arriving at this place, Master Qingwei only glanced briefly at the pond before his gaze turned to a straw hut beside it.

Inside the hut's yard, a daoist with green clothes and white hair was sitting by a stone table, brewing tea.

"Speak, what urgent matter brings you to see me all of a sudden today?"

Seemingly feeling Master Qingwei's gaze, the white-haired daoist indifferently inquired, still focusing on the teapot on the table without glancing at Master Qingwei.

Not daring to deem this as slighting, Master Qingwei immediately bowed and said, "Disciple Master Qingwei pays respects to the Supreme Elder."

Only after standing upright did he respectfully announce his purpose for visiting.

"What? Tianjing Hermit successfully broke his Elixir to form the Nascent Soul!"

The white-haired daoist's body shuddered slightly, he turned his head abruptly to look at Master Qingwei, and the sharp gaze in his eyes instantly made Master Qingwei hurriedly lower his head.

"Explain in detail, what exactly happened!"
