Clan Cultivation: Starting from Beast Taming-Chapter 2205 - 778: Consuming [Nine Blossom Immortal Plum]

Yu Country.

Twelve years have passed, and Zhou Chun, upon returning to Yu Country, immediately noticed some changes.

When he left, Yu Country was somewhat deserted, and one might need to fly hundreds or even thousands of miles to spot a few cultivators.

But this time, upon his return, Zhou Chun found that the number of active cultivators within Yu Country had increased significantly.

Flying over Azure Sky Nine Heavens, he overlooked a thousand miles of land, and could see the spiritual light bursting forth when cultivators cast spells and activated magic artifacts. He could also see the figures of Foundation Establishment and Purple Mansion Phase cultivators flying across the sky.

Since Zhou Chun headed straight to Kunwu Mountain, the cultivators active in this area were unlikely to be from Jinyue Sect or Qingyun Sect.

Yet, they were visibly not cultivators from the Zhou Family either.

So, most likely, they were foreign cultivators who had come to Yu Country for an adventure.

"It seems the plan I discussed with the grand uncle is working. I’m just unsure of its overall effectiveness!"

Zhou Chun’s eyes flickered with understanding of the situation.

Before he left, he had discussed with Taoist Friend Zhou about attracting foreign cultivators to Yu Country.

Because Yu Country is vast and borders the territories of other alien races in the Sky Barbarian Plains, relying solely on the Zhou Family, Jinyue Sect, and Qingyun Sect, along with their affiliated forces, couldn’t possibly clear out the demon beasts from most of the nation’s regions.

Thus, the only solution was to bring in a large number of foreign cultivators to explore and help hunt those demon beasts, genuinely clearing out a piece of land where ordinary mortals could settle and thrive, creating a paradise for the Human Clan!

At that time, Zhou Chun suggested setting examples, arranging people to spread word in neighboring countries about the wealth of Yu Country, claiming there’s gold everywhere, and letting some bought cultivators share their stories of easily finding invaluable thousand-year Spiritual Medicine within Yu Country.

This way, as long as enough people spread the word, and Yu Country indeed offered more opportunities to find rare Spiritual Objects than other countries, attracting cultivators for adventure would naturally no longer be a concern.

Evidently, the plan was quite successful, judging by the frequent sightings of cultivators within Yu Country.

Not long after, Zhou Chun returned to Kunwu Mountain.

The scenery on Kunwu Mountain remained unchanged, pretty much the same as when Zhou Chun left.

Upon his return, several Spirit Pets that stayed behind immediately emerged to greet him.

"Congratulations, Master, on your significant rise in cultivation level and successful breakthrough!"

The Silver Dragon Monarch transformed into a silver-armored youth, soared into the air, and with a joyful expression, saluted Zhou Chun with congratulations.

He had mastered the transformation technique well after several hundred years as a demon king, now appearing more human than some Fifth Rank Middle Grade Demon Kings.

After all, his bloodline was extraordinary, and he devoted effort to cultivate this aspect, unlike most demon kings who merely dealt with it casually.

Following the Silver Dragon Monarch, the Fushan Monarch also transformed into a robust man with a turtle shell on his back, appearing in the air, similarly congratulating Zhou Chun in a muffled voice.

Seeing these old companions he hadn’t seen in over a decade, Zhou Chun was filled with joy, laughing repeatedly: "Good, good, you both seem to have recovered well. That’s reassuring."

Meanwhile, many Zhou Family cultivators noticed Zhou Chun after the sudden appearance of the Silver Dragon Monarch and Fushan Monarch.

Soon, Zhou Mingde, who stayed in the mountain gate, invited him over for a conversation.

Zhou Chun smoothly left the sight of the crowd and came to the entrance of Zhou Mingde’s cave dwelling.

"Hahaha, I always knew, Zhengchun, that you would succeed for sure, and indeed you have!"

Outside the cave, Zhou Mingde, seeing Zhou Chun and his attendants, laughed joyously and congratulated him.

For hundreds of years, Zhou Chun’s cultivation level had progressed fiercely, never stuck long in any realm.

Thus, elders like Zhou Mingde developed a sort of confidence in him, believing he would succeed in whatever he attempted!

Zhou Chun found it amusing, but knowing it was unnecessary to explain further, he maintained his humble persona, waving his hand: "Ancestor, you flatter me. The successful breakthrough was all thanks to the opportunity granted by Tai Geng Divine Venerable, without which the youngster alone would not know when or how to achieve it!"

"Haha, but it’s because of your outstanding nature that Tai Geng Divine Venerable favored you. Not everyone has that fortune and skill!"

Zhou Mingde laughed heartily, displaying a sense of shared glory.

Getting involved with a Mahayana Phase Venerable, receiving their protection, was something Zhou Mingde dared not dream of before.

Even after Zhou Chun formed the Nascent Soul, he hadn’t dared dream of such a good fortune.

But now, such a fortune had genuinely fallen upon the Zhou Family, making him smile proudly every time he thought of it.

As the current founder of the Zhou Family, witnessing the family reach where it is today, achieving this success, he had no regrets in life!

"Why is there no sign of the grand uncle? Where has he gone?"

Zhou Chun didn’t want to dwell on irrelevant matters, immediately shifting the topic to ask about Zhou Daoyi’s whereabouts.

It was evident Zhou Daoyi wasn’t within the mountain gate; otherwise, for such a significant event of breakthrough success, he should have come out to congratulate Zhou Chun.
