"Zhou Zhiqian, is it?"
Zhou Chunâs mind turned, and information about this junior immediately emerged.
These juniors with the character "Zhi" in their names, he didnât interact with much. All he knew was that Zhou Zhiqian also had a Superior Spiritual Root Talent, successfully established Foundation at thirty-eight, and then practiced a Zhou Familyâs martial cultivation technique, "Golden Fiend Sword Scripture," seemingly taking the path of a sword cultivator.
To be honest, Zhou Chun didnât particularly understand Zhou Zhiqianâs choice.
With his Superior Spiritual Root Talent, even if he cultivated a top-tier technique, Zhou Chun thought it wouldnât be an issue, yet he chose a martial combat technique.
Having looked at "Golden Fiend Sword Scripture" during his leisurely times, Zhou Chun felt the cultivation speed was exceedingly slow, and it cannot even enhance cultivation level through ordinary Essence-Advancing Mana Elixir!
Despite Zhou Zhiqianâs choice to cultivate this technique, even with Superior Spiritual Root Talent, Zhou Chun didnât think he had much chance of opening Purple Mansion, let alone forming a core.
Were it not for Zhou Chunâs usual reluctance to interfere with the choices of family juniors, coupled with the Zhou Familyâs current lack of previous desire for Superior Spiritual Root Talent cultivators, he certainly would not have allowed the cultivation of this technique!
Furthermore, as Zhou Chun knew, Zhou Mingde had advised this junior back then, but sadly, the other party was resolute, leaving no choice but to agree.
At this point, after running through the information about Zhou Zhiqian in his mind, Zhou Chun gently nodded and said, "I understand, as your master. Bring him in."
"As you command, Master."
Zhou Zhiying obediently replied and soon brought a sharp-auraed, long-faced middle-aged man into the cave.
"Zhou Zhiqian pays respects to the Clan Leader. Thank you for meeting me."
The thin and stern-faced Zhou Zhiqian, after entering, merely glanced at Zhou Chun and then solemnly bowed deeply, expressing his gratitude.
Zhou Chun saw this and did not bother with pleasantries. He directly looked at him and asked, "Zhiqian, what questions do you have to seek my counsel today?"
Upon hearing this inquiry, Zhou Zhiqian promptly replied, "To answer the Clan Leader, the junior has come today to seek one thing, and that is to request the Clan Leader to grant a viewing of the Sword Grinding Stone!"
"You have already mastered the second layer of âLight Sword Artâ?"
Zhou Chunâs complexion slightly changed, somewhat surprised by the juniorâs words.
Regarding the Sword Grinding Stone obtained from the Golden Core Late Stage sword cultivator Shen Jianxing, Zhou Chun did not place it in the Family Treasure Vault but in his private treasure vault within his cave.
Yet on the second layer of âLight Sword Artâ obtained from Great Zhou Kingdom cultivator Yuchi Fei, he noted the standard for viewing that Sword Grinding Stone, which was to cultivate this sword art to the second layer.
Now, Zhou Zhiqian came forward with this request, clearly having met the standard he set.
Indeed, upon hearing his words, Zhou Zhiqian immediately responded affirmatively, "Thatâs correct, the junior mastered the second layer of âLight Sword Artâ half a month ago."
"If thatâs the case, show me your swordsmanship!"
Zhou Chunâs expression stirred with interest and directly put this request to the junior before him.
"Yes, then please excuse the junior for his offense!"
With these words, Zhou Zhiqian immediately tapped the sword sheath on his back, and a pale gold flying sword instantly unsheathed.
With a slight pinch of the sword technique, the pale gold flying sword immediately flashed like a gold thread shooting towards Zhou Chunâs cave residence, its speed as fast as lightning!
But before the sword could reach a foot in front of Zhou Chun, he suddenly caught it with his hand, rendering it motionless.
This scene immediately caused Zhou Zhiqianâs expression to change, but remembering the person before him was a Golden Core Stage cultivator, he relaxed, and his mind quickly calmed.
Seeing this, Zhou Chun immediately looked at him with a face of appreciation and nodded with praise, "Not bad, not bad, is this the killing move âLight Appearsâ recorded in the âLight Sword Artâ? It indeed has a hint of âSword into Silkâ!"
"With only Foundation Initial Stage cultivation, you can make a sword comparable to Foundation Late Stage cultivatorâs. It seems you indeed have some talent in the path of sword cultivation!"
After he finished, he released the fingers gripping the flying sword, then slightly shook his head and said, "However, despite mastering the second layer of âLight Sword Artâ, it is not yet time for you to view that Sword Grinding Stone!"
