Clan Cultivation: Starting from Beast Taming-Chapter 1242 - 522: Lure and Kill [Subscribe Requested]

Master Yanling wanted to compete in Mana, and Zhou Chun naturally followed his wish!

In terms of deep Mana reserves, Zhou Chun, who had only recently formed his Core, was naturally no match for Master Yanling.

However, the Mana consumption for Zhou Chun to wield two inferior-grade magical treasures was far less than his opponent’s, not to mention he had the help of a Spirit Pet.

He was simply waiting for the moment when Master Yanling’s Mana would run dry, then launching a burst attack to deal a heavy blow!

But Master Qingwei seemed to have seen through Zhou Chun’s plan. After Taoist Yiyang’s initial attempt to persuade him failed and another hour passed, Master Qingwei tried persuading once more, enlisting the help of others as well.

At that moment, Master Yanling’s imminent defeat was already unmistakable, and his pride left him in a tough spot.

Under repeated persuasion from Master Qingwei and his fellow sect members, he finally chose to step down and admitted defeat.

This left Zhou Chun rather regretful.

"For the third round, the Zhou Family wins. The victor of this duel is the Zhou Family. The Spirit Land in Jiufeng Ridge shall continue to belong to the Zhou Family from now on. The Green Lotus Temple may no longer use any reason to forcibly reclaim this territory!"

Baiyue True Person swept his gaze over Master Yanling, who had conceded defeat and returned to his group, then fixed his eyes on Taoist Yiyang, solemnly announcing the result of the duel.

Taoist Yiyang and the others naturally felt dissatisfied with this result but dared not voice further complaints.

In the moment, he could only respond with a grim face: "Understood, poor Taoist acknowledges the result. Since the duel has concluded, poor Taoist and my fellow disciples shall take our leave. Farewell!"

After finishing, he perfunctorily cupped his hands in salute to Baiyue True Person and then left with the members of the Green Lotus Temple.

On Zhou Chun’s side, witnessing this scene, he respectfully bowed to Baiyue True Person with a look of gratitude and said, "Many thanks to Sect Leader True Person for upholding justice for my Zhou Family. My elders and I are truly grateful."

"Little Friend Zhou is too kind. All of this was earned by your own efforts; I dare not claim credit."

Baiyue True Person waved his hand before saying, "If Little Friend Zhou is not in a hurry to return, would you be willing to accompany me back to our sect’s main mountain for a discussion?"

"Since Sect Leader True Person has extended the invitation, I naturally have no reason to refuse."

Zhou Chun replied without hesitation, immediately agreeing.

Thus, the group promptly set off, heading back to the Moon Wheel Sect’s mountain gate.

Upon reaching the sect’s mountain gate, Lin Hongyu departed for Su Yunniang’s cultivation cave to tend to her Dao Companion Zhou Daoyi, while Zhou Chun followed Baiyue True Person to his cave.

As the Sect Leader True Person of the Moon Wheel Sect, Baiyue True Person’s cave might not rival the Dao Fields of the three Nascent Soul Patriarchs, but it was unquestionably one of the finest caves within the Moon Wheel Sect.

For Zhou Chun, this was his first time being invited into such a place. The dense concentration of nature’s spiritual energy here surpassed even the Secret Realm Island he had visited before!

Of course, this was partly because he had not yet reached the core area of that Secret Realm Island.

"If I could sit and meditate here year-round, my cultivation speed might increase by more than ten percent!"

He silently contemplated, his heart filled with envy.

A ten percent boost in cultivation speed might seem insignificant, but for a Golden Core Stage cultivator, it equated to nearly a hundred additional years of cultivation time, considering their lifespan!

Such a top-tier cultivation cave couldn’t be rented even with exorbitant amounts of Spirit Coins!

Top-tier cultivation caves like this were undoubtedly rare within the Moon Wheel Sect mountain gate; for instance, Su Yunniang, a Golden Elixir Elder, had a cave that was vastly inferior.

With enough Spirit Coins, it wasn’t challenging to lease a cultivation cave comparable to Su Yunniang’s in Tianyuan Immortal City.

Just as Zhou Chun was lost in thought, Baiyue True Person had already invited him to take a seat.

After Zhou Chun expressed his gratitude and sat, he saw Baiyue True Person gazing at him with full admiration. He then said, "Today, Little Friend Zhou showcased remarkable Divine Skills, truly broadening my horizons. I did not expect that aside from exceptional Beast Taming Skills, Little Friend Zhou would possess such capabilities!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chun quickly showed a humble expression and cupped his hands, replying, "Sect Leader True Person exaggerates. These modest skills of mine are hardly worthy of such praise. All of Jingguo Country knows of Sect Leader True Person’s extraordinary Divine Skills, said to rival the strength of a Nascent Soul!"

Zhou Chun didn’t truly know if Baiyue True Person possessed the power to rival a Nascent Soul, but it never hurt to flatter him!

In reality, Zhou Chun had a pretty good guess as to why Baiyue True Person had invited him into his cave for a discussion; he was simply waiting for the Sect Leader to broach the main topic.

Baiyue True Person wasted little time on pleasantries. After his initial comments, he soon looked at Zhou Chun and said, "Little Friend Zhou, you may not know, but our sect has a rule: Any disciple who obtains legacy cultivation techniques or secret techniques outside the sect must present them to the sect. Depending on the quality of the legacy, they may then select a cultivation technique or secret technique of corresponding grade from the sect’s Scripture Pavilion to practice, along with receiving merit points as a reward!"

"This junior was indeed unaware of this rule."

Zhou Chun replied calmly.

Of course, whether he knew it or not didn’t matter; what mattered was that he now understood.

Baiyue True Person continued, saying, "Today, witnessing Little Friend Zhou’s duel, your cultivation technique and treasures were truly unique and eye-opening. Therefore, some of our elders have proposed exchanging cultivation techniques with you, hoping to glean insights and enhance their own practices."

"If Little Friend Zhou is willing, our sect will treat you with the same privileges as our disciples for this exchange."

Of course, this so-called "exchange" was merely a courteous way of phrasing things.

Both Zhou Chun and Baiyue True Person were perfectly aware of this fact.

Hence, Zhou Chun promptly replied, "Since the Senior Sect is interested in Junior’s cultivation techniques, Junior is naturally willing to present them to the Senior Sect. However, the Dao Carrying Artifact for this technique is unique, so Junior can only provide a copied Jade Slip to the Senior Sect!"
