Clan Cultivation: Starting from Beast Taming

As Zhou Chun had anticipated, after hearing that he had actually obtained part of the new Sect Member information from the Dragon Transformation Sect's expansion in Yunzhou, Zhou Daoyi also attached great importance to it.

After taking a brief look at the documents, Zhou Daoyi pondered for a moment and then said to Zhou Chun, "This information is indeed very useful, but it cannot be delivered by us to the Green Lotus Temple."

As he finished speaking and saw the confusion on Zhou Chun's face, he quickly explained, "The Zhou Family's influence is too small, we can't afford to offend either the Green Lotus Temple or the Dragon Transformation Sect."

"If our Zhou Family presents this information to the Green Lotus Temple and the news leaks, the Dragon Transformation Sect may very well annihilate our Zhou Family to make an example out of us and warn other families and minor sects."

"Although presenting this information could garner some reward for our Zhou Family, the merit alone is not enough to make the Green Lotus Temple look upon us with a special favor and provide us with special care!"

With that said, Zhou Chun understood.

Put simply, it was a matter of the risks and rewards not being equal, and that the significance of the information wasn't extensive enough.

"Then, Clan Leader, you mean to say..."

Zhou Chun looked toward the Clan Leader Zhou Daoyi, feeling that the other party must have a better plan in mind.

Indeed, hearing his question, Zhou Daoyi quickly responded, "Aren't you in good terms with Miss Liu? You can pass this information through you to her, and let her submit it to the Sect."

"This way, you can repay Miss Liu for the favor of notifying us this time, and it would also allow her to receive rewards from her Sect, perhaps even letting her master know about the relationship between you two."

This was indeed a better idea.

Zhou Chun couldn't help but nod his head and immediately responded, "This junior understands, I will make a trip to Lianzhou in a few days."

"That's right!"

Zhou Daoyi showed an approving expression and nodded his head, then he had Zhou Chun take out those elixirs to identify them.

The results were somewhat unexpected for both of them. Among the elixirs from the black-robed elder's Storage Pouch, even Zhou Daoyi could only recognize about half of them. There were still several types he didn't know, so he had to take Zhou Chun to Hundred Medicines Peak to consult a few of the Zhou Family's alchemists.

After all the effort that took most of the day, except for two elixirs whose uses remained unknown, the rest were identified.

Among the variety of elixirs, there were three types that could enhance the mana of cultivators in the late stages of Qi Refinement, totaling nearly thirty pills.

Clearly, like those first-tier Magic Artifacts, these elixirs were also public goods that the black-robed elder used to win over and reward new Sect Members.

There were also three types of internal Healing Pills, one of which was a Healing Spirit Pill called "Dragon Blood Qi Tonic Pill," said to be extremely beneficial even for cultivators at Foundation Establishment Stage. It was rumored to be concocted using the rare "Dragon Blood Ginseng" as the main ingredient and was quite scarce, with only one left in the jade bottle.

Now with these, Zhou Chun wouldn't need to rush to spend Spirit Coins on Cultivation Spirit Pills after his medicine abstinence period ended.

"By the way, during my outing, I also obtained some Spirit Blood and flesh pieces from the Green Flood Dragon. In a few days, when I've taken care of these items, I'll give some to your Silver Lightning Python as a reward for your year-long efforts," said Zhou Daoyi in the Central Peace Hall, having returned to the location, suddenly recalling something and conveying this pleasant surprise to Zhou Chun.

Zhou Chun had always refrained from asking about the outcome of Zhou Daoyi's chase after the Green Flood Dragon because he knew that if Zhou Daoyi wanted to share, he would do so naturally, and asking would be pointless.

But now, it seemed that Zhou Daoyi had indeed reaped some benefits.

Remembering that Zhou Daoyi had experience in raising Sky Azure Cloud Pythons, Zhou Chun decided not to bother him with more than one matter and directly took out the three Dragon Blood Spirit Items to seek his advice on their use.

After inspecting the three Dragon Blood Spirit Items Zhou Chun presented, Zhou Daoyi asked him to release the Silver Lightning Python for an inspection.

After some deliberation, he then said, "Since your Silver Lightning Python is not far from breaking through to a higher-grade Demon Beast, you should use them when the breakthrough occurs."

"At that time, you can feed it these two stalks of Dragon Blood Grass, then crush this Dragon Blood Stone and soak it in water so it can slowly absorb the Dragon Blood essence during its slumber and breakthrough process."

Hearing this, Zhou Chun immediately committed his words to heart.

Two days later, Zhou Daoyi handed over a large chunk of Green Flood Dragon flesh weighing about twenty to thirty pounds and roughly one pound of Flood Dragon Spirit Blood to Zhou Chun for the Silver Lightning Python to consume, while also cautioning him not to broadcast this news widely.

Zhou Chun naturally overflowed with gratitude, repeatedly assuring that he would not leak a single word.

Unbeknownst to him, the Flood Dragon flesh and spirit blood he received were actually his Clan Leader's "earnings for selling himself"!

Enjoying the covert advantage, Zhou Chun felt gleeful gratitude, and he was especially thankful to the Clan Leader Zhou Daoyi for taking such exceptional care of him.

Therefore, not long after, he took the captured documents and set off for the Green Lotus Temple's gates in Lianzhou, ready to hand them over to Liu Shiyun.

Lianzhou was located to the northeast of Lanzhou, not too far from Jiufeng Ridge.

Lianzhou wasn't always called this, but the name changed after the Green Lotus Temple grew in prominence.

Compared to the territories of Lanzhou, Yunzhou, and the rest of Jingguo Country, Lianzhou was the true stronghold of the Green Lotus Temple, their home base.

In this province, there was only the Green Lotus Temple sect and numerous cultivator families with deep connections to the Green Lotus Temple.
