Clan Cultivation: Starting from Beast Taming

After using a high-grade magical treasure to definitively settle the ownership of the token for entering and exiting the Secret Realm Island with Luo Qingni, Zhou Chun finally put down a long-standing burden.

He didn't disturb Luo Qingni much afterwards in her alchemy and refining of Dharma treasures and quickly took his leave.

Upon leaving Luo Qingni's abode, Zhou Chun followed the information she had previously provided and began visiting cultivators who might possess spiritual objects useful for advancing the cultivation level of a Golden Core Middle Stage cultivator.

Unfortunately, after making his rounds, Zhou Chun found he had gained nothing.

It wasn't that these people didn't have the spiritual objects he needed, but rather what he offered in exchange didn't interest them at all.

And he couldn't possibly use high-grade magical treasures to trade for such consumable spiritual objects.

So Zhou Chun could only temporarily set this matter aside in disappointment and instead seek out Nascent Soul Spirit Materials.

Among the current younger members of the Zhou Family, Zhou Yuanlian, Zhou Xinyan, and Xu Fu were all hopefuls for reaching the Golden Core Stage.

Although Zhou Chun had only made a promise to Xu Fu and never promised to help others acquire Nascent Soul Spirit Materials,

as the cultivator with the highest cultivation level in the family, he certainly felt obliged to assist these younger members if he could.

After nearly a year of effort, Zhou Chun managed to successfully exchange for two portions of Extreme Yang Fire Spirit Liquid, one portion of Extreme Cold Ice Marrow Liquid, and one Mysterious Unity Qi Pill to aid in Pill Consolidation.

Reaching this point, Zhou Chun felt he had done his best for the younger members.

He wasn't their parent, responsible for providing each with a complete set of Nascent Soul Spirit Materials.

If they ran short on Nascent Soul Spirit Materials, they would have to find opportunities on their own.

When Zhou Chun returned to Tianyuan Immortal City and collected the elixirs he had commissioned Luo Qingni to refine, he prepared to bid farewell to Zhou Daoyi. Suddenly, he learned from Zhou Daoyi that someone had come to the Zhou Family's Mingde Trading House, claiming to be "Zhang Liang," seeking an audience.

Zhou Daoyi, knowing that Zhou Chun traveled the Cultivation World often using this alias, realized that the person was actually there to see Zhou Chun.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chun decided to meet this individual.

That day, after instructing the trading house staff to contact the visitor, he awaited them in the courtyard of the trading house.

When the individual arrived, Zhou Chun immediately saw through the disguise and warmly smiled at the figure disguised as an old woman, saying, "So it's you, Bai Xiaoyou; what a rare guest indeed!"

The old woman before him was, in fact, Bai Zhiqing, a disciple of the Heaven Fire Sect from the Westernmost Cultivation Realm.

Zhou Chun, during his past visit to the Heaven Fire Sect, had been aided by Bai Zhiqing in gathering many specialties of the Westernmost Cultivation Realm, and the two had thus formed a connection.

Bai Zhiqing, during their conversations back then, expressed a desire to travel after learning about the splendor of the Cultivation World in the Great Zhou Kingdom.

At that time, Zhou Chun didn't much support her plan, as it was quite difficult and dangerous for someone with a Purple Mansion Phase cultivation level to achieve this.

However, seeing the Bai Zhiqing with a Purple Mansion Late Stage cultivation level standing before him, Zhou Chun realized she had chosen to risk it and evidently succeeded.

At this point, after Zhou Chun unmasked her true identity with a single nickname, Bai Zhiqing gave up her disguise, revealing her true appearance, and respectfully bowed to him, saying, "Junior greets Senior Zhang. I apologize for this sudden visit and any disturbance to your cultivation, and I hope for your understanding and forgiveness."

"No need for such courtesy, Bai Xiaoyou. Isn't it delightful to have friends visit from afar? I am truly delighted to see such a friend from a distant land here in the Great Zhou Kingdom,"

Zhou Chun said with a wave and a broad smile.

Hearing his words, Bai Zhiqing's unease dissipated considerably, and she promptly praised, "Senior Zhang, your generous and open-minded nature is sincerely admirable to this junior."

To such words of flattery, Zhou Chun only chuckled lightly, not taking them seriously, and then directly addressed Bai Zhiqing, "For Bai Xiaoyou to traverse countless mountains and rivers to come to the Great Zhou Kingdom with merely a Purple Mansion Phase cultivation, such determination is admirable. How might I assist you?"

He understood that Bai Zhiqing had come to the Mingde Trading House to seek his help.

Indeed, after hearing his question, Bai Zhiqing respectfully replied, "Not daring to deceive Senior Zhang, this junior's bold visit is to seek your help in facilitating an exchange for Nascent Soul Spirit Materials."

"Oh, so you mean to say, Bai Xiaoyou, that you've already found someone to exchange with, but you're concerned about the exchange process not going smoothly?"

Zhou Chun's expression shifted slightly as he looked at her thoughtfully.

"Yes, that's precisely my concern."

Bai Zhiqing nodded, directly confirming this point.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun didn't refuse and cheerfully nodded, "Alright, since that's the case, I'll lend a hand with this small matter. Bai Xiaoyou, please elaborate on the situation."

"Thank you, Senior Zhang. I'm incredibly grateful for your great kindness,"

Bai Zhiqing joyously expressed her gratitude repeatedly and then explained the situation.

Upon understanding the circumstances, Zhou Chun quickly had Bai Zhiqing contact the other party and personally facilitated the exchange for her.

Thus, with Zhou Chun's intervention, the exchange was successfully completed, and Bai Zhiqing subsequently rented a residence in Tianyuan Immortal City to close up and attempt Core Formation.
