Cultivating Immortals in the Family: Rising from Beast Familiarity

Chapter 827: War Restarts [Subscribe]

Heavenly Fire Gate.

When Zhou Chun came to Tianhuo Gate again as a cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Stage, in his eyes, this place no longer had any secrets.

He had always wanted to know whether the [Heavenly Fire Divine Pearl] was a magical treasure that could reach the sky.

Now I know that this thing is indeed not a magical treasure.

However, in his perception, the spirituality of this [Heavenly Fire Divine Pearl] should have reached the limit of a spiritual treasure. It was only because it lacked a trace of opportunity that it had not yet transformed into a universal spiritual treasure.

If we have to make an analogy for this chance, it would probably be a spiritual object like the [Mother Stone of Ten Thousand Gold] that possesses natural Taoist characters.

If it could be integrated with a spiritual object containing the power of the law of fire, this [Heavenly Fire Divine Pearl] should be able to transform into a magical treasure that can reach the sky on the spot.

But for the Tianhuo Sect, this opportunity is obviously hard to come by.

That kind of spiritual object that contains the power of the law of fire is a treasure that cultivators in the God Transformation Stage would fight for even in ancient times, let alone in the current world of immortal cultivation.

Even if we really find that kind of spiritual object, it must be the material that can be used to refine weapons.

For example, the "Meat Ganoderma Lucidum" that Zhou Chun got obviously did not meet the needs.

Therefore, if the [Skyfire Divine Pearl] of the Skyfire Sect only continues to absorb the power of the Earthfire Spirit Vein below to temper itself, it is basically impossible for it to transform into a celestial spiritual treasure.

"I used to think that it was not easy for the Tianhuo Sect to find such a blessed place, so they knew it was dangerous and had no choice but to establish a mountain gate here. Now it seems that I was wrong."

“I’m afraid that the reason why the founder of the Sky Fire Sect settled here is mainly because he wanted to use the earth fire spirit vein below to temper this [Sky Fire Divine Pearl]!”

"This treasure is able to generate its current spirituality, probably because it has devoured a large amount of fire essence!"

Zhou Chun had sharp eyes. After seeing the state of the [Sky Fire Divine Pearl], he immediately understood the thoughts of the ancestors of the Sky Fire Sect.

Then he quickly shook his head and said, "It's a pity that a mere Nascent Soul cultivator, even if he has superb weapon-refining skills, can't do anything without the right ingredients!"

How difficult it is to refine a celestial treasure in this world!
Even a powerful god like Tai Geng was able to upgrade his innate spiritual treasure, which he had refined and cultivated for thousands of years, to a universal spiritual treasure because he obtained the most suitable acquired treasure, the [Mother Stone of Ten Thousand Golds].

As for other cultivators in the God Transformation Stage, except for Changchun Venerable Zhou Chun who is unsure, the natal magic treasures of others are definitely not the Tongtian magic treasure!

The key to restricting these spiritual treasures from being promoted to Tongtian spiritual treasures is the spiritual material!
Zhou Chun did have some advantages in this regard. He had obtained such a large piece of [Ten Thousand Gold Mother Stone], and had integrated a lot of his two natal spiritual treasures into it.

But if he wants to upgrade his natal spiritual treasure to a celestial spiritual treasure, it will not be possible in the short term.

Because if a spiritual treasure wants to be promoted to a Tongtian spiritual treasure, in addition to being enlightened by a suitable acquired rare treasure, the spirituality of the spirit of the weapon also needs to undergo a transformation.

Zhou Chun's natal spiritual treasure had only been promoted to a spiritual treasure for a short time, and the spirituality of its spirit was far inferior to those natal spiritual treasures that had been refined for thousands of years by cultivators in the God Transformation Stage.

Within a thousand years, being able to transform an innate spiritual treasure into a supernatural spiritual treasure would be considered a great success.

After solving a doubt that had been in his mind for a long time, Zhou Chun had no intention of showing up at Tianhuo Gate. He came quietly and left quietly.

A day later, Zhou Chun returned to Kunwu Mountain in Yu State.

In fact, he had wanted to visit Venerable Lingfeng, but Divine Venerable Taigeng had advised him not to waste time there, as it would be awkward if he didn't meet the person.

Zhou Chun always listened to advice and never went there again.

After returning to Kunwu Peak, Zhou Chun called Luo Qingni over and gave her the newly acquired [Pure Yang Barrier Breaking Pill].

"This [Pure Yang Breaking Barrier Pill] is what I got from this trip. This pill has excellent effects and can increase the success rate of breaking through the late Nascent Soul stage by 30%. Qingni, keep it first and use it according to your own situation later!"

Luo Qingni didn't expect that he called her over for this matter, and she was stunned for a moment.

After being stunned for a moment, she shook her head and said, "I appreciate your kindness, Zhou Lang, but it's not convenient for me to accept this item. I'd better leave it to Xinyuan!"

"Qingni, what's there to be shy about between you and me?
Zhou Chun took a few steps forward, grabbed the beautiful woman's hand and forced the pill bottle into her hand, then held her hand and smiled faintly, "Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. I have fulfilled my responsibility by supporting Xinyuan to form a baby. How far he can go in the future depends entirely on himself. I will not interfere any more!"

As he spoke, he sighed with emotion and said, "Actually, you know what? I don't like others interfering in my life, and I don't want to interfere in the lives of others, even my apprentice and son!"

"Of course I know, because I feel the same way!"

Luo Qingni responded softly in a gentle tone, and then naturally snuggled into Zhou Chun's arms.

Only people with similar personalities can become friends and confidants.

That's exactly what they did!

More than ten years later, Zhou Zhiying successfully broke through to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, and his cultivation level improved steadily.

Another seven years passed, and with the help of Zhou Chun, Yishan Jun initially created a set of skills suitable for his own practice, which greatly improved his practice speed.

Three years later, Qinghong Taoist Zhou Zhiying went south to Jingguo and challenged Yuelun Sect's Cangyue Taoist to a duel. The latter stayed indoors and did not dare to accept the challenge.

As a result, the reputation of the Yuelun Sect plummeted, and the past grudges between the Yuelun Sect and the Zhou family spread once again in the Jingguo immortal cultivation world and the Tianling world, and were known to many cultivators born in the past few hundred years.

After learning of this, not only did people within the Yuelun Sect become panic-stricken, but many external forces that had been cooperating with the Yuelun Sect also directly severed their cooperation.

Even the Moon Wheel Sect’s attempt to recruit disciples was met with a cold reception. The cultivators who truly had talent and background did not want to board this shabby ship that could sink at any time!
In this situation, Master Cangyue was both furious and helpless.

He tried to go to Yuanyang Temple for help, but Master Xuan Yan, who had been quite nice to him before, was now very perfunctory and had no intention of helping at all.

It was not until this time that True Man Cang Yue realized that he and the Yue Lun Sect had been abandoned.

"Father, the Moon Religion's Cang Yue Zhenren is outside asking to see you. He said he came here specifically to apologize to you. Do you want to see him?"

On Kunwu Peak, Zhou Xinyuan came here in person and conveyed a message.

“No! Not just anybody can climb up Kunwu Peak!”

Zhou Chun replied calmly, and his meaning was made clear in one sentence.

"The kid understood."

Zhou Xinyuan responded and immediately went to see Master Cangyue and repeated Zhou Chun's words truthfully.

Then he looked at the old man in front of him calmly and said, "Fellow Daoist Cang Yue, I have conveyed my father's meaning to you. Please go back!"

"I understand. Thank you for troubling me, Brother Zhou."

After a long while, Master Cangyue replied weakly in a low voice, and then left the Zhou family in a daze.

Originally, he had made a great decision to come to the Zhou family to ask for apology, and he showed the same determination as Master Yin Yue who went to find Zhou Chun at all costs!

But reality gave him a ruthless blow.

None of the ridicule and embarrassment he expected to experience occurred, but the result was even worse than the worst case scenario he had expected!

Zhou Chun's words "cats and dogs" explain it all.

In fact, he should have realized this earlier.

If Venerable Yuanyang had not intervened, he would have been completely unqualified to enter Zhou Chun's eyes hundreds of years ago when Zhou Chun had just broken through to the late Nascent Soul stage.

So after returning to Jingguo, Master Cangyue made a very painful and helpless decision.

He dismissed most of the disciples of the sect, and asked some Jindan elders to take some loyal and reliable people to leave Jingguo and go to a distant country to establish a new sect, no longer using the name of Yuelun Sect.

He himself stayed inside the Yuelun Sect's mountain gate with some elders and disciples, and closed the gate.

Seventy years later, True Man Cang Yue died of old age, and the name of Yue Lun Sect has since completely become a part of the history of the Jingguo immortal cultivation world!
Seventy years is not a long time for a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage.

For a cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Stage, that was just a trivial period of time.

But a lot can happen in seventy years.

On the Zhou family's side, eight Jindan-stage cultivators have emerged one after another since Zhou Chun's incarnation. Now, the number of Jindan-stage cultivators has reached eighteen!
Lu Yuanjun had followed the Green Robe Master for many years and had successfully restored his acquired spiritual root to its full potential. He himself had benefited greatly from it and had been the first to be promoted to a fifth-rank upper-grade demon king.

Luo Qingni's cultivation has already reached the barrier of the late Nascent Soul stage, and she is seeking to reach the great monk stage.

However, for her, one [Pure Yang Barrier Breaking Pill] is not safe. Although the success rate of more than 30% is not low, there is also a high possibility of failure.

Therefore, Zhou Chun asked her to hone her magic power first, and see if she could take the opportunity to exchange some good things from Venerable Changchun when the war between foreign races broke out.

Changchun Valley is a huge treasure house. With nearly ten thousand years of accumulation by Changchun Venerable, no one knows how many treasures are inside.

Luo Qingni was also a cultivator of wood-attributed skills, and Zhou Chun didn't believe that Venerable Changchun didn't have something that could increase her chances of becoming a great cultivator.

But if there was no reason, it would not be convenient for Zhou Chun to go to Lord Changchun to ask for help for Luo Qingni.

After all, for cultivators like them in the God Transformation Stage, the debt of favor is the hardest to repay!
At this time, there are only about a hundred years left before the turbid evil energy completely dissipates.

The turbid evil energy between heaven and earth is now very thin, and even a cultivator in the early Nascent Soul stage can easily feel it dissipating.

Zhou Chun and other Jinhua-stage cultivators therefore concluded that the alien race would definitely take action within fifty years at the latest.

But in fact they are still optimistic.

……

Great Zhou. On this day, above the border between Great Zhou and the Multi-Winged Tribe, a dark blue cloud suddenly flew rapidly from the direction of the Duolan Grassland towards Great Zhou.

This blue-black cloud covered the sky and the sun, stretching for hundreds of miles and coming with great force.

Such a strange phenomenon naturally quickly attracted the attention of the vigilant human monks.

Soon, the true appearance of this blue-black cloud appeared in the eyes of some monks who were practicing the secret technique of pupil techniques.

It turned out that it was not a normal cloud tide at all, but a tide of insects composed of countless fist-sized monster insects!

Yes, a swarm of insects!
When Zhou Chun learned about the insect tide, it had already caused great harm within the territory of the Great Zhou.

According to the information he had learned, the insect swarm this time was a type of poisonous bee called the Green-faced Demonic Bee.

This kind of poisonous bee has a ferocious temperament and likes to eat the flesh and blood of living things. It is considered a demon insect.

No one knows how much the Multi-Winged Tribe paid. There were hundreds of millions of poisonous bees invading the Great Zhou Kingdom this time, and there was even a fourth-level queen bee among them!

After these evil insects invaded the Great Zhou Kingdom, they were driven by the powerful members of the Multi-Winged Clan and split into more than a dozen groups, which invaded different regions and brought great losses to the mortal world and small and medium-sized forces of the Great Zhou Kingdom.

Behind these insect swarms are the armies of the Multi-Winged Tribe and the Triangle Tribe!

That’s right, this time the two feuding races, the Multi-Winged Tribe and the Triangle Tribe, completely put aside all their past grudges and came out in full force to form a coalition to attack the human race!

At the same time, the alien race responsible for attacking the immortal world in the far west turned into an army of demons from the Wilderness of Ten Thousand Beasts.

The Wilderness of Ten Thousand Beasts remained largely silent and did not take action during the last attack by the alien army.

For unknown reasons, the entire demon army was suddenly mobilized this time, including more than thirty fifth-level demon kings and an army of millions of demon beasts!
On the other side, a sudden warning came from the Tianling Land. A large number of monsters poured into the Tianling Land from the border area and launched an attack on all the human kingdoms along the line.

Under such circumstances, the human race quickly entered a state of war.

After receiving the message from Venerable Changchun, Zhou Chun will go to the Tianling Realm to take charge, while Venerable Green Robe will go to the Great Zhou Kingdom and fight side by side with Divine Venerable Taigeng to deal with the sixth-level strongmen of the Multi-Winged Tribe and the Triangle Tribe.

When Zhou Chun went to the Tianling realm, he also brought Lord Silver Dragon, Lord Feng Yuan, Lord Fushan, and Lord Yishan with him, and his disciple Zhou Zhiying also went with him.

At the same time, his second Nascent Soul incarnation, True Man Bingming, returned to the State of Yu with the [Aurora Ice Butterfly Beast] to take charge.

A cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Stage could travel so fast that in less than a day, Zhou Chun arrived at Jingguo at the fastest speed.

Interestingly, the place he chose to settle down was the Moon Wheel Sect’s mountain gate where Venerable Yuanyang had previously been in charge.

However, at this time, the Moon Wheel Sect's mountain gate has been temporarily managed by the Tianling Alliance because of the death of True Man Cangyue and the dispersion of the Moon Wheel Sect's disciples.

When Zhou Chun arrived here, the leader of the Tianling Alliance, the great cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage, Zhenren Bingling, was already waiting there.

"What is the situation now? Do you know what the rules of the Longyuanze demon tribe are this time?"

At the gate of Yuelun Sect, after Zhou Chun arrived there, he immediately asked Master Bingling for relevant information.

Hearing what he asked, Bing Ling Zhenren quickly replied: "Senior Chunjun, please be wise. We have not yet found any traces of powerful demon kings, nor any signs of demon armies gathering. It's just that a large number of low- and medium-level demon beasts have poured into the borders of several countries!"

"What does it mean?"

Zhou Chun was slightly stunned and couldn't help frowning.

After hesitating for a moment, he looked at Master Bing Ling and asked, "Have you sent anyone to investigate the situation in the wilderness?"

Upon hearing this, Master Bing Ling immediately responded, "We did send some Jindan-stage cultivators to conduct reconnaissance thousands of miles deep into the wilderness. Apart from discovering a large number of demon beasts migrating towards various countries, we found nothing else!"

"I understand. Then you can arrange some personnel to wipe out those incoming monsters. I will let my pet investigate the specific situation!"

Zhou Chun nodded and told him about his own arrangements.

He did what he said and soon sent Fushanjun and Yishanjun out to go deep into the wilderness to gather intelligence.

After a few days had passed, the information sent back by Fushanjun and Yishanjun made Zhou Chun a little confused.

His two demon king spirit pets had searched the entire wilderness from Jingguo to Longyuanze in the past few days, but they only found traces of a few fifth-rank low-grade demon kings, and not even a single dragon king.

"That's weird. Is this Golden Horned Dragon Saint going to just deal with it again? But if he just deals with it this time, what chance will he have in the future?"

Zhou Chun suddenly realized that he seriously lacked understanding of the Golden Horned Dragon Saint and had no idea what kind of person he was.

After thinking about it, he decided not to act rashly, but instead reported the situation here to Venerable Changchun.

After receiving Zhou Chun's message, Venerable Changchun quickly replied.

"Wait and see what happens?"

Zhou Chun looked at the reply from Lord Changchun, his mind racing with thoughts, but he soon understood what the other party meant.

Indeed, it is the alien races who are anxious now, not the human race.

No matter what the Golden Horned Dragon Saint thinks, as long as he doesn't take action, it will be beneficial to the human race.

After figuring this out, Zhou Chun became calm and no longer in a hurry to find out the demon clan's plans.

While the situation in Tianling Realm was lukewarm, the battlefield of the Great Zhou Kingdom entered into a decisive battle right from the start!
The alien coalition forces completely changed their strategy this time. They were not in a hurry to attack a strong city like Tianyuan Immortal City. Instead, they divided into several armies to bypass Tianyuan Immortal City and go deep into the heart of the Great Zhou Kingdom, specifically attacking those places that were not guarded by powerful formations.

And this time, the two alien races really emptied out all their assets, including various powerful disposable secret treasures, as well as those treasures and secret methods that cost a lot to use.

The human race did not anticipate these things at the beginning and suffered a lot of losses.

At the same time, Divine Master Tai Geng and Venerable Green Robe had already engaged in combat with the sixth-level beings of the two clans.

Judging from the news that came back, the strength of both sides is not much different. Tai Geng Divine Master has a slight advantage against the sixth-level being of the Triangle Clan, while Green Robe Master is slightly weaker against the sixth-level being of the Multi-Wing Clan.

But they are all level six beings, so even though there is some difference in strength, the winner will not be decided quickly, so it is estimated that there will be a fight.

As for the world of immortal cultivation in the far west, although the beast army in the Wilderness of Ten Thousand Beasts is powerful, the figure of the Sixth-Rank Demon Saint has not been found yet, so it can't cause any waves.

No matter how Zhou Chun looked at it, he felt that these aliens were really asking for their own death.

In terms of overall strength, the human race is now far superior to other races.

When one's own strength is at a disadvantage, one still has to take the initiative to attack, using the weak to defeat the strong. How can one not be defeated?

But just when he thought the situation was good, it suddenly changed.

On this day, Venerable Changchun suddenly contacted Zhou Chun urgently.

When his incarnation, the Green Robe Venerable, was fighting a sixth-level existence from the Multi-Winged Clan, the Golden Horned Dragon Saint suddenly broke into the battlefield, causing him to fight one against two. He suffered serious injuries and had already retreated back to Tianyuan Fairy City.

Influenced by this, Lord Taigeng had no choice but to retreat with him.

As a result, three sixth-level alien beings directly attacked Tianyuan Immortal City in the name of pursuing the two of them!

It is foreseeable that Tianyuan Immortal City will not be able to hold out for long under the attack of three sixth-level alien beings.

However, Venerable Changchun felt that this might be a conspiracy to expose his true identity, so he wanted Zhou Chun to attack Longyuanze nearby and force the Golden Horned Dragon Saint to withdraw.

"Sword to smite the dragon abyss, this is the lofty ambition that Senior Tai Geng once made, I will not interfere in his business!"

Zhou Chun looked at the message from Lord Changchun and pondered for a moment, then shook his head slightly, deciding not to do as it said.

It’s not that he doesn’t trust Reverend Changchun, but he feels that since the Golden Horned Dragon Saint dared to go to the Great Zhou Kingdom to participate in the war, he must have some means to deal with him!
If an army were to go deep into Longyuanze alone at this time, there is a high probability that they would return empty-handed, and there is a small chance that they might be ambushed.
In a sense, Venerable Changchun's ambush and killing of the Qingluan Demon Saint could be regarded as a reminder to him that although the cultivators in the Spirit Transformation Stage are already at the pinnacle of the world, they are not completely immortal.

How do you know that Long Yuanze is not another trap set for Zhou Chun?
In his opinion, attacking Longyuanze might not be successful and would involve considerable risks.

But if we come to the aid of the Great Zhou Kingdom, we can resolve the crisis there no matter how bad it is!

Therefore, after making the decision, Zhou Chun left the four demon kings' pets to guard Jingguo, and rushed to the Great Zhou Kingdom at full speed.

Zhou Chun had only traveled two-thirds of the way when he received another message that Tianyuan Fairy City had been breached, and Taigeng Divine Master and Green Robe Master were retreating to Changchun Valley!
He could only change direction and rush towards Changchun Valley.

After flying for tens of thousands of miles, Zhou Chun finally arrived at the battlefield.

Just above the nine skies of Bixiao, less than three thousand miles away from Changchun Valley, a golden dragon several hundred feet long was seen with divine light emanating from its body, and it was fighting fiercely with the Divine Lord Taigeng.

Hundreds of miles away, a sixth-level warrior from the Triangle Clan with three horns on his head, and a sixth-level warrior from the Multi-Winged Clan with sixteen wings on his back were surrounding and attacking the Green Robe Venerable fiercely.

At this moment, the Green Robe Venerable no longer had the glory that he had when he killed the Chongxuan Demon King with one blow. He stood with a pale face under the shadow of a giant green tree, struggling to resist the attacks of two sixth-level beings.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun, even though he was still thousands of miles away, immediately shouted loudly: "Don't worry, two seniors, I'm here!"

As he shouted, he transformed into a beam of golden light and rushed towards the battlefield.

Unexpectedly, just as he was halfway through, the golden dragon over there shouted: "Don't be so arrogant, Zhou family kid, fight with this saint first!"

Before he finished speaking, a golden gem flew out from his body, and in the blink of an eye it transformed into another black and golden dragon that pounced towards Zhou Chun.

This is exactly the second incarnation of his soul that he transformed with the middle-grade magical treasure [Dragon God Pearl]!
　It was such a pain to write this! I feel like there is nothing more to write. At this point, the plot is no longer under my control. After struggling for the past two days, I made up my mind and decided to push the main plot directly. After that, I will explain one or two chapters and then finish the book!

　　(End of this chapter)
