Chapter 1872: Chapter 1872
Zhou Chun was examining the token in his hand, and then he slapped the storage pouch at his waist to extract another identical token.
This token was obtained from the storage pouch of Ziyang True Person. He was puzzled at the time about why it couldn’t be refined, but now he understands the reason.
"I wonder if Xuanzhen True Person would issue another one to that old thief Ziyang."
He smiled lightly and casually put both tokens away.
Then, he said to Zhou Daoyi: "Since I’ve already become an Alliance Elder of the Heavenly Spirit Alliance, officially, there’s no need to worry about the two families causing trouble here. From now on, if the family’s Golden Core Stage cultivators want to travel outside, just let them proceed normally."
"That’s indeed the case. I will inform the clansmen of this matter."
Zhou Daoyi nodded, agreeing with the decision.
Soon after, Zhou Mingde, Zhou Zhiying, and Zhou Xinyan each departed the Green Lotus Mountain Range separately, traveling to different regions.
On this day, while Zhou Chun was meditating, he suddenly received a communication talisman from the Zhou Family Elder, Zhou Yuanlian.
After reading its content, he quickly summoned the visitor who was already outside the cave to enter.
"Xiao Lian, why did you take the initiative to visit the family mountain gate today? Is there some issue?"
Inside the cave, Zhou Chun looked at the younger generation suddenly seeking an audience with him, curious about their intent.
In the Zhou Family, Zhou Yuanlian was known for being a mysterious cultivator; many younger family cultivators knew of such an elder’s existence but had never seen her or knew what she looked like.
She had been following Zhou Chun’s instructions for years, overseeing matters in the Wasteland Territory.
Thus, Zhou Chun was quite surprised by her unexpected visit.
An unsummoned visit usually indicates a significant matter.
Indeed, after his inquiry, Zhou Yuanlian spoke softly: "Clan Leader, please be discerning; during my recent years of meditation practice, internal toxins often disturb my balance, nearly causing a deviation or inner demon!"
"Upon careful study, I found the issue should stem from not absorbing and integrating more diverse toxins in recent years, hindering the progress of my main cultivation technique and triggering an unforeseen defect in it!"
"Without resolving this defect, I hardly dare to continue using the cultivation technique to meditate and practice!"
At this point, her complexion turned grim.
Upon hearing her words, Zhou Chun’s expression became solemn.
He immediately wore a serious expression and asked her, "Are you sure this situation is caused by the Tome of Thousand Poisons, your main cultivation technique?"
Zhou Yuanlian nodded heavily, her tone confident in reply.
"This Tome of Thousand Poisons was acquired by me years ago from an adversary; its recorded cultivation methods can only support cultivation up to the Golden Core Stage. Now, since you are facing such issues during cultivation, it’s likely because the latter parts of the cultivation technique are missing!"
Zhou Chun, explaining the cultivation technique’s circumstances while he watched Zhou Yuanlian, asked: "Do you have any temporary solutions to suppress this hidden danger?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yuanlian immediately replied: "Currently, I completely refrain from meditation practice, but if I were to circulate the technique to restore mana or engage in spells, I could temporarily harmonize the internal toxins by consuming some self-made toxic pills."
"With that, the situation hasn’t reached the worst stage yet!"
Zhou Chun’s expression relaxed slightly as he nodded and shared his opinion.
He pondered briefly before saying to Zhou Yuanlian: "Since the cultivation technique has issues, to thoroughly resolve this hidden danger, you must find the missing subsequent parts of the technique."
"That’s what I also thought, hence I came to see the Clan Leader this time, hoping for your approval to leave the family and venture into the Demon Element Realm to find the succeeding parts of the technique!"
Zhou Yuanlian nodded and quietly shared her thoughts.
Once Zhou Chun heard her words, he fell silent.
Even for the current Zhou Chun, "Demon Element Realm" were merely words he had heard from others and read about in classics; he was actually unaware of the real condition there.
Considering the brutality of those Demon Cultivators, that region would hardly be peaceful. Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on Nove1Fire.net
Despite Zhou Yuanlian’s reasonably high cultivation level and her uncanny methods, if she were to venture alone into the Demon Element Realm to find the Tome of Thousand Poisons’ follow-up parts, success would be uncertain.
However, concerning her personal safety and future path, Zhou Chun clearly had no reason to prevent her.
Therefore, after a considerable period of silence, he said to Zhou Yuanlian: "You intend to search for the subsequent cultivation technique in the Demon Element Realm; I have no objection, but achieving success by yourself is undoubtedly a daunting task."
"Thus, I suggest you visit the family of our friend Wu Yuzhu, inform her of the technique’s impediments, and take her along to the Demon Element Realm for mutual support."
Having said this, Zhou Chun raised his hand and slapped the storage pouch at his waist, extracting two Fourth Order high-grade Thunder Talismans to hand to Zhou Yuanlian.
"These two Thunder Talismans are my contribution to your endeavor, hoping you’ll be cautious in your actions and return safely and smoothly!"
