Zhu Wuya indeed did not disappoint Zhou Chun.

After Zhou Chun expressed his willingness to exchange Dharma Treasure Spirit Materials and thousand-year-old Spiritual Medicine, Zhu Wuya was indeed very willing to help as an intermediary. He connected Zhou Chun with several Refinement Masters from the Sunflame Sect to find suitable Magic Artifacts for him.

Finally, after careful selection, Zhou Chun chose two Magic Artifacts.

These two Magic Artifacts were named "Goldflame Demon-Subduing Sabre" and "Golden Light Demon-Extinguishing Mirror," both meticulously crafted by a Refinement Master of the Sunflame Sect to counter Demon Cultivators and were Third Order high-grade Magic Artifacts.

Originally, these two Magic Artifacts were prepared for the cultivators of his own sect.

However, Zhou Chun offered too much, so much so that it was difficult to refuse!

A single piece could be worth hundreds of thousands of Spirit Coins, and Zhou Chun brought out two pieces at once.

Which Refinement Master could resist that?

Don't think that because some Third Order high-grade Magic Artifacts incorporate Dharma Treasure Spirit Materials, they are easy to find; the actual situation is not like that.

Like the "Golden Rainbow Sword," a Third Order high-grade Magic Artifact, it is said to incorporate Dharma Treasure Spirit Materials, but in reality, it only includes a bit of Gold Essence, Iron Essence, and other Spirit Materials, not costing more than ten thousand Spirit Coins.

More often, it involves Dharma Treasure Spirit Materials scraps, and they also call it incorporating Dharma Treasure Spirit Materials.

Moreover, often Artifact Refiners deliberately exaggerate the amount of Dharma Treasure Spirit Materials used, such as claiming three taels were used when only one tael of Gold Essence was added.

Usually, only a true Refinement Master could accurately identify the quantity added, with others only able to see that such materials were indeed incorporated.

At this time, the Dharma Treasure Spirit Materials brought out by Zhou Chun for exchange were indeed plentiful, completely sufficient for creating Dharma Treasures.

These materials, capable of creating Dharma Treasures, were almost irresistible to any Refinement Master aspiring to reach the Refiner Grandmaster Realm.

That is why Zhou Chun considered the Sunflame Sect as his alternative option and was utterly confident.

And he was certainly aware of the value of the Dharma Treasure Spirit Materials but knew even better that these items would just gather dust in his possession and saw no need to sell them for Spirit Coins.

It was better to exchange them for Magic Artifacts to enhance his combat abilities, help him compete for the position of "Heavenly Spirit's Magnificent Seven," and acquire Nascent Soul Spirit Material.

With his ability to make money, as long as he successfully formed his core in the future, he wouldn't worry about finding Dharma Treasure Spirit Materials to craft his Lifebound Dharma Treasure.

After obtaining the Magic Artifacts, Zhou Chun thanked Zhu Wuya, the intermediary, and hurriedly returned to Tuyun Ridge.

At the family home, Zhou Chun discussed some matters with Zhou Mingde before heading to the Fengguo front lines in the final few days.

"Subordinate Zhou Zhengchun, returning from leave by order, awaits further instructions from Commandant!"

Inside the grand hall, upon returning to the front lines, Zhou Chun first visited Wei Yong, his direct superior, to report back from his leave.

Seeing that he had reached the Purple Mansion Late Stage in his cultivation, Wei Yong did not hide his admiration and repeatedly praised him, "Excellent, excellent. Little Friend Zhou has indeed not disappointed anyone. Now with Zhou alone, Wei is as good as having a thousand troops!"

He made no mention of Zhou Chun's timely return.

Zhou Chun, very respectfully, immediately bowed and responded, "This subordinate's current cultivation level is all thanks to Commandant's kindness. This subordinate has no way to repay you, except to serve you faithfully unto death!"

Truly, hearing these words, Wei Yong immediately showed a broad smile and laughed heartily, "Hahaha, with these words from Little Friend Zhou, Wei is reassured."

Having said that, he nodded to Zhou Chun and said, "Since Little Friend Zhou you have returned, the First Squadron will still be under your command. I will give you half a month to reintegrate. After that, an important task will require your participation!"

"Yes, I obey," Zhou Chun responded, soon took his leave, and went to his squadron's station.

Upon his return to his squadron station, seeing him return, the Deputy Commander Cheng Zhiming also showed a delighted face and hurriedly exclaimed, "It's wonderful, Commander, that you have finally returned. With you back, we subordinates and brothers feel reassured!"

Realizing Zhou Chun's advancement in cultivation, Cheng then suddenly smacked his head and exclaimed, "Look at me, how foolish of me. I should be congratulating Commander first on your significant advancement in cultivation."

Saying this, he very solemnly congratulated Zhou Chun, "Congratulations to Commander on your significant advancement in cultivation, and may you soon achieve Golden Core!"

Seeing this, Zhou Chun also smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Deputy Commander Cheng is too courteous. During this year when Zhou was not here, you've taken on much burden handling the team's affairs. Zhou will keep this in mind and will surely speak for you in front of the Commandant in the future!"

Hearing this, Cheng Zhiming's face instantly revealed a heartfelt smile, and he quickly responded humbly, "Commander, you flatter me. These were but my duties, hardly worth mentioning, hardly worth mentioning!"

Thus, the two engaged in a cheerful conversation as they entered the office, after which Zhou Chun listened to Cheng Zhiming's report to understand the happenings in the squadron over the past year.

During their conversation, having heard the news, another Deputy Commander, Yue Feng, also rushed over.

Seeing Zhou Chun's breakthrough to the Purple Mansion Late Stage, Yue Feng felt quite a mix of emotions.
