Chapter 1290: Chapter 534: Two Rushed Years [Seeking Subscription]_3
Baibai the Thunder Flood Dragon received six Spirit Pills, Stone the Golden Armor Turtle Bearer received six Spirit Pills, and the remaining two were given to the Golden Winged Tiger.
According to this distribution plan, once these three Spirit Pets have consumed all the Spirit Pills, Baibai the Thunder Flood Dragon will certainly be able to break through to become a top-grade Third Order Demon Beast, and Stone the Golden Armor Turtle Bearer, having previously consumed a Silver-Horned Rhino Demon Core, will also certainly break through to the top-grade Third Order.
The reason Zhou Chun did not concentrate all the Ancient Dust Pills for a single demon beast to consume was, firstly, to avoid favoring one too much, and secondly, because excessive consumption of this elixir can lead to drug resistance.
Moreover, he would continue to collect Spiritual Medicine to refine the Ancient Dust Pills, and given the willingness to spend money, it should not be a problem to gather enough materials for a furnace of elixirs in five or six years.
As Zhou Chun anticipated the breakthrough of several Spirit Pets, Zhou Daoyi accompanied Lin Hongyu to Tianyuan Immortal City.
It turned out Lin Hongyu had already exchanged for a Nascent Soul Spirit Material that aids in Pill Consolidation, and this time she brought Zhou Daoyi over for a closed-door Core Formation.
At the same time, they also brought Zhou Chun a piece of news that wasnât particularly good or bad.
After consuming the Dragon Transformation Pill, Zhou Daoquanâs Spirit Pet, the Bloodflame Dragon Python, did not evolve into a Bloodflame Flood Dragon.
However, the medicinal power of the Dragon Transformation Pill helped purify its bloodline, thus breaking the bloodline shackles and allowing it to become a Third Order Demon Beast, the Bloodflame Dragon Python.
In terms of strength and potential, a Third Order Demon Beast Bloodflame Dragon Python naturally pales in comparison to a Third Order Bloodflame Flood Dragon but certainly isnât inferior to Zhou Mingdeâs Fire Divine Jackal.
Zhou Daoquan himself was not disappointed at all and specifically entrusted Zhou Daoyi to help convey his thanks to Zhou Chun.
Another thing that reassured Zhou Chun was that the Zhou Family had been relatively stable these past two years, with no disturbances.
This proved that his strategies were effective, and the Ice Hell Sect might be wary of the elites backing the Zhou Family, temporarily reining in their actions.
In fact, this was expected. The Ice Hell Sect, although known for a high completion rate in their assassination missions, hasnât been without failures.
And the assassins they send are often killed or captured when the target is backed by a powerful force.
In such situations, the Ice Hell Sect usually investigates first to determine how formidable the target might be.
If the targetâs circumstances are clear and controllable, the Ice Hell Sect will naturally rally their assassins to uproot it entirely.
But if the target is supported by someone of notable stature, within the protection of a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator, the Ice Hell Sect often concedes.
After all, they are not yet powerful enough to demand only assassinating others while not allowing any form of retaliation against themselves!
Provoking a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator over a Golden Core Stage assassin is highly imprudent!
Though Zhou Chun wasnât completely familiar with the Ice Hell Sectâs methods, he roughly guessed that the opposing side would be wary in the absence of complete details regarding the missing assassin, and thus wouldnât easily target the Zhou Family again.
As for the Green Lotus Temple, after learning about the disappearance of the Ice Hell Sect assassin, itâs likely they would also be apprehensive and refrain from challenging the Zhou Family lightly.
Now, Zhou Chun only needed to stall for several decades to gain the strength that makes him fearless of Ice Hell Sect assassins and the Green Lotus Temple.
Hence, the upcoming tasks became more manageable, as Lin Hongyu and her husband went to rent a cave dwelling for Core Formation, while Zhou Chun remained officially unaffiliated with them and actively gathered relevant Spiritual Medicine in Tianyuan Immortal City.
One day, while Zhou Chun was meditating in his cave dwelling, he suddenly received a message from Sun Yuanjing, the shopkeeper of Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, inviting him to a meeting at the pavilion.
Due to having requested Taiyi Profound Gold Qi and the procurement of Spiritual Medicine for refining Ancient Dust Pills over the years, Zhou Chunâs relationship with Sun Yuanjing had gradually strengthened.
At this moment, although the message didnât specify the purpose, he didnât hesitate and headed to Heavenly Treasure Pavilion after finishing his practice.
âTaoist Friend Sun, has invited Zhou here today; could it be that youâve found the Spiritual Medicine Zhou needs again?â
Once inside the elegant room of Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, Zhou Chun jokingly inquired about the reason for Sun Yuanjingâs invitation.
Yet, Sun Yuanjing shook his head and said, âThatâs not the case. Inviting Taoist Friend Zhang today is at someoneâs request.â
He then lowered his voice and said, âDoes Taoist Friend Zhang remember the Taoist Friend Zeng who once asked you to help remove a stubborn ailment? This time, Taoist Friend Zeng has asked Zhou to invite you over for a private meeting!â
âIs that soâŠâ
Zhou Chun glanced at Sun Yuanjing and couldnât help but bow his head in contemplation, pondering Zengâs intentions.
His prior dealings with the Zeng cultivator were just a transaction; he didnât even know his real name.
Now, with the sudden request for a private meeting, there must be something he seeks.
From Zhou Chunâs perspective, he naturally didnât wish for complications.
However, he knew that since Zeng took the trouble of involving Sun Yuanjing, he wouldnât easily give up.
Rejecting such a request would not only disrespect Sun Yuanjingâs face but likely wouldnât entirely deter that Zeng cultivatorâs intentions.
Therefore, after some consideration, he nodded to Sun Yuanjing gently and said, âSince Taoist Friend Sun has spoken, Zhou naturally must show some regard, so please arrange the location!â
Upon hearing this, Sun Yuanjing chuckled, âHehe, in that case, Zhou must thank Taoist Friend Zhang in advance.â
