Clan Cultivation: Starting from Beast Taming

"The third method is to practice certain special cultivation techniques, such as the secretly transmitted 'Corpse Soul Scripture' from the Corpse Demon Sect of Fengguo, which transforms the body into half-human and half-corpse, thereby eliminating physical limitations; or to cultivate the 'Reversal of Yin and Yang Scripture,' which can turn a man into a woman, completely transforming his body into that of a female!"

Although he was only a newly advanced Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator, Tianjing True Person really lived up to the title of a Nascent Soul Stage True Person. With just a short moment of contemplation, he provided three solutions to such an esoteric problem.

Such profound knowledge made even more Cultivators wish to be that "fortunate one."

The next chosen ones, too, asked all sorts of questions.

Some asked about cultivation-related issues, seeking guidance from Tianjing True Person to help break through their current bottlenecks.

Others inquired about healing, wanting to learn from Tianjing True Person how to treat internal injuries or poison wounds in themselves or their loved ones.

There were those who asked about special Spiritual Objects, seeking advice from Tianjing True Person on where to find such unique items.

For most of these questions, Tianjing True Person was able to provide satisfactory answers.

And even with questions he could not answer, he allowed people to ask another question, one he could address.

Although Zhou Chun and the members of the Zhou Family were not chosen, they too benefitted greatly from this Q&A session, gaining a lot of useful knowledge in the process.

By the time the third day passed and Tianjing True Person declared the end of the event, many Cultivators present felt a sense of lingering attachment.

"Alright, the time is about right. This conference shall come to an end now. Take care, fellow Daoists!"

On the central high platform, Tianjing True Person announced the end of the conference with a calm voice, then his figure flickered and, just like when he had appeared, he instantly transformed into a beam of golden light soaring into the sky, disappearing from the sight of many Cultivators.

"The younger generation pays its respects as we see the Ancestor (True Person) off!"

On the plaza, Zhou Chun and many other Cultivators stood up to salute and bid farewell to Tianjing True Person as he departed.

Soon after, a Purple Mansion Phase Cultivator from Tianjing Villa stepped forward and directly announced the end of the conference, signaling that everyone could leave.

"Is it really over just like this? Could it be that this Tianjing Conference is indeed just this straightforward?"

After leaving Tianjing Villa, Zhou Chun looked back at the place behind him, his mind full of doubt.

He didn't believe that Tianjing True Person would hold such a conference just to benefit the younger generation and bless the Cultivation Realm.

After all, it had only been a few years since Nascent Soul Formation was completed. Even if his Cultivation Level was now stable, there must be many other things he needed to do.

If it was truly only to benefit the younger generation, he could have waited until he had finished those important matters before organizing such an event.

There was no need to rush the holding of the Tianjing Conference at this time.

"There's no need to be so suspicious. Whatever their intentions might be, we just need to calmly observe how the situation evolves. Overthinking it only causes unnecessary trouble!"

Seeing that Zhou Chun was still persistent in guessing Tianjing True Person's intentions, Zhou Daoyi couldn't help but soothe his junior through a voice transmission.

He, too, knew that Zhou Chun's status compelled him to be concerned about these matters.

He had always admired Zhou Chun's character in the past.

However, now he hoped more that this junior would focus on raising his own Cultivation Level.

After the Zhou Family had three Purple Mansion Phase Cultivators, Zhou Daoyi saw clearly what was needed.

What the Zhou Family needed was not just a Clan Leader with exceptional management skills, but also a Golden Core Stage Cultivator, someone who could help the Zhou Family regain its status as a Golden Core family.

And now, he did not see the potential for Nascent Soul Formation in any of the three Zhou Family Purple Mansion Phase Cultivators.

Their potential might very well have ended here.

Therefore, both he and Zhou Mingde were now pinning their hopes on Zhou Chun.

Not only because Zhou Chun was practicing the top-tier 'Golden Cauldron Profound Technique,' but also because Zhou Chun was young, very young.

Youth was an asset!

Each of them had been over two hundred years old, or nearly two hundred, when they succeeded in opening their Purple Mansion.

But Zhou Chun had the opportunity to achieve this a hundred years earlier than them.

If Zhou Chun really managed to do this, it would mean a hundred more years for him to attempt reaching the Golden Core Stage, which was of paramount importance.

At this time, after Zhou Daoyi's words of comfort, Zhou Chun no longer dwelled on his thoughts, and quickly the group returned to their clan.

Upon arrival back at the clan, Zhou Chun and others each returned to their residences to focus on reviewing their gains from the conference, and documented their insights and experiences on paper.

In this way, even the Zhou Family Cultivators who did not attend the conference could find beneficial information from these writings.

After half a month's busy work like this, a piece of news suddenly exploded throughout the Jingguo Country Cultivation Realm.

Lingzhou had declared independence!

On the twelfth day following the conclusion of the "Tianjing Conference", dozens of Cultivation families in Lingzhou declared their departure from Green Lotus Temple, pledging allegiance to Tianjing Villa instead.

Any Cultivation Forces not willing to pledge allegiance to Tianjing Villa were expelled from Lingzhou.

This even included the Xuanzhu Palace which had once been within the territory of Lingzhou and whose ancestors included Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators. They too could no longer hold onto their Sect and were forced to relocate to the territory of the Moon Wheel Sect.

The former Sect grounds of Xuanzhu Palace had now become the Daoist retreat of Tianjing True Person, and Tianjing Villa had also moved there in due cause.

At the same time, Tianjing Villa officially renamed itself "Tianjing Sect" and began openly recruiting disciples.

In the face of these rapid changes, the three major forces of Jingguo Country remained unusually silent.

Even the Green Lotus Temple, which had previously held dominion over Lingzhou, did not express any opinion on this, seemingly tacitly accepting the situation.

"What exactly do the three major forces mean by this? Have they already discussed and agreed with Tianjing True Person, allowing Tianjing Sect to become the fourth major Sect in Jingguo Country?"

"But if that's the case, logically they should send Cultivators of sufficient status to officially offer congratulations, so why are they now silent?"

In Central Peace Hall, as Zhou Chun reviewed the information delivered by messenger hawk, he was not only shocked but also deeply puzzled.

With his questions in mind, he immediately went to the mountaintop retreat to report the news to the two Supreme Elders.

"Silence does not necessarily mean consent, it could also mean they haven't yet decided how to handle the situation!"

"Let's just wait and see. Before the three major Sects make a statement, we will follow suit and keep silent. If someone comes to discuss this matter, try not to express any stance," Zhou Mingde advised after some thought.

After he finished, Zhou Daoyi quickly added, "Zhengchun, do not go to Longxing Valley during this period, in case an urgent matter requires your presence and you're unavailable to be notified."

"Yes, junior understands what to do."

Zhou Chun responded and then withdrew.

What the Zhou Family did not expect was that, in just a few days, another event with significant relevance to them unfolded.

It turned out that shortly after the establishment of Tianjing Sect, Yu Jinghua of Spirit Beast Manor, along with a group of disciples, defected to Tianjing Sect.

Furthermore, as a Golden Core Stage Cultivator, Yu Jinghua was directly appointed as Vice Sect Leader of Tianjing Sect!

"Damned fool! Yu Jinghua, that damned fool truly deserves to die!"

Atop Pagoda Peak, Zhou Mingde, upon hearing this news, immediately became so furious his hair seemed to stand on end as he cursed aloud.

Seeing him so agitated, Zhou Chun thought he was worried about the Zhou Family being implicated by this affair and hastily offered words of comfort, "Supreme Elder, please calm yourself. Our Zhou Family has long severed ties with Yu Jinghua, even if he has defected to Tianjing Sect, the Green Lotus Temple will probably not involve our Zhou Family because of it."

"Ah, you don't understand. My anger isn't due to fears of the Zhou Family being implicated by Yu Jinghua. It's because that scoundrel handed over our Zhou Family heritage and brought shame upon our ancestors!"

Zhou Mingde sighed heavily, his face filled with indignation as he spoke of his reason for anger.

But this made Zhou Chun even more confused.

Hadn't the Zhou Family's heritage already been leaked to outsiders when Yu Jinghua established Spirit Beast Manor?

He immediately asked, "What do you mean by this?"

"This goes back to the time when our family divided,"

Zhou Mingde opened his mouth, his eyes flickering slightly as if he had made a decision, and promptly began to reveal a secret unknown to Zhou Chun.
