Clan Cultivation: Starting from Beast Taming-Chapter 671 - 344: News of the Wood Charm [Subscribe Please]_2

The young cultivator, upon hearing this, immediately answered with respect, "I dare not deceive my senior, I am not from a cultivation family, but a loose cultivator who has been brought up by another loose cultivator since childhood. All the modest skills I possess were taught by my master before his demise."

As he said this, he sighed with a look full of guilt, "Unfortunately, my studies were not refined, and my choice of associates was poor, I almost died an untimely death, which truly shamed the cultivation my teacher bestowed upon me!"

"That is quite rare indeed. For your teacher to have taught someone as clever and sharp as you, that's quite a skill!"

Zhou Chun nodded slightly, expressing his admiration for the young cultivator and his master.

Then he waved his hand and said, "Alright, this seat finds you quite agreeable as a junior, so I will not pursue the matter of your disturbance. You may go."

He was not afraid of the young cultivator spreading the word about him meditating here, after all, he was just a passerby, and the young cultivator did not recognize him.

Moreover, he was merely meditating, and even if someone harbored suspicions about why he dared to meditate in the wilderness, it was unlikely to cause any trouble.

So, whether to let the young cultivator go was really a matter of his personal mood.

The young cultivator, upon hearing these words, didn't leave happily as expected.

Instead, he showed a hesitant and indecisive expression on his face and stood there without moving.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and speak with displeasure, "What? Do you fear I am deceiving you?"

"No, no, not at all, this junior harbors no such thoughts!"

The young cultivator shook his head repeatedly and hastened to explain, "The senior sees clearly, I merely have something on my mind that I'm unsure whether to share with the senior, and I'm somewhat struggling with the decision. I have absolutely no doubts about the senior!"

Hearing this response, Zhou Chun's curiosity was indeed piqued, and he followed up, "Oh? What is it that you want to tell this seat?"

He frowned slightly and emphasized with added weight in his tone, "Speak your mind, this seat dislikes those who are evasive with their words!"

"Yes, as the senior wishes to hear it, then this junior will speak!"

The young cultivator raised his eyes to look at Zhou Chun and then began to recount the events.

What he wished to tell Zhou Chun was a rumor he had overheard quite by chance.

He had learned half a month prior from a cultivator of a certain cultivation family that a Wood Charm had appeared in the Thousand Leaves Forest of Shen Country. It was said to possess the strength of the second order, and that family's Elder and Supreme Elder had both gone to capture the Wood Charm.

"What place is Thousand Leaves Forest? How could a Wood Charm, such a strange beast, appear there?"

Zhou Chun looked at the young cultivator with a surprised expression, truly taken aback by what he had said.

A Wood Charm is not just any ordinary Demon Beast; in fact, it shouldn't be considered a Demon Beast, but rather a Spirit Monster.

It is said that such a creature is born from an ancient tree that has cultivated its own spirit and then transformed upon receiving an opportunity given by the heavens and earth. Naturally, it is adept at the Wood Escape Technique and possesses many special Divine Skills.

Moreover, these Spirit Monsters have no upper limit to their growth. How far they can develop depends entirely on their fortunes, similar to cultivators.

Beings like Wood Charms, along with Stone Charms, Water Charms, Ice Charms, and the like, are extremely rare and are almost only recorded in classics.

For cultivators, such Spirit Monsters are undoubtedly precious treasures with infinite uses.

At the simplest level, Wood Charms have a strong natural affinity for sensing ancient plants and can easily find rare Spiritual Medicine that is difficult for cultivators to locate.

Stone Charms, on the other hand, have remarkable talent in mining exploration, being innately proficient in the Earth Escape Technique, freely traversing underground in search of mineral veins.

Some Nascent Soul Stage powerhouses can even refine these types of Spirit Monsters into External Incarnations, thereby obtaining the various superior natural talents these creatures possess!

Overall, if a family were to obtain such a Spirit Monster, it would be difficult not to make a fortune.

"The senior doesn't know about Thousand Leaves Forest?"

Facing Zhou Chun's inquiry, the young cultivator revealed a very surprised expression, finding it inconceivable.

"I am not a cultivator from Shen Country and indeed know little about this."

Zhou Chun explained indifferently, then fixed his gaze on the young cultivator, signaling him to elaborate.

Upon hearing his words, the young cultivator couldn't help but show a look of realization, then steadied his spirit and softly said:

"Reporting back to the senior, Thousand Leaves Forest is a large forest located in the central eastern part of Shen Country. It stretches over seven hundred li from east to west and more than five hundred li from north to south, with no high mountains within, only endless, lush forests."

"Although in the past there were many low-level Demon Beasts within Thousand Leaves Forest and it produced a wide variety of Spiritual Medicine, there were seldom any reports of second-order Demon Beasts appearing. Thus, it has always been a favorite place for us loose cultivators to venture into for adventure."

"But now that there are rumors of Wood Charms, I fear it may not be as safe as we imagined!"

Having said this, he hurriedly bowed to Zhou Chun and added, "Senior, please be discerning. The news of the Wood Charm is something I've only heard through hearsay, and I dare not assert its authenticity."

"No matter, I have my own understanding of the situation. You should continue and tell me about the cultivating family that discovered the Wood Charm."

Zhou Chun waved his hand and continued to ask for more detailed information.

The young cultivator, upon hearing this, immediately answered as requested.

According to the young cultivator, the cultivating family that discovered the Wood Charm was the Huang Family, a powerful cultivating clan with one Purple Mansion Cultivator in the intermediate stage and six Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Currently, besides the Foundation Establishment stage Clan Leader who remained at the family's mountain gate, the rest of the Foundation Establishment cultivators and that Purple Mansion Cultivator all went to Thousand Leaves Forest to capture Wood Charms.

The young cultivator knew this information because he accidentally overheard it from a conversation between Huang Family cultivators who were privy to the situation.

Now, after listening to the young cultivator's explanation, Zhou Chun nodded repeatedly and said, "I understand now. Your information is indeed valuable to me. What reward do you seek? Whether it is an Elixir for advancing cultivation or a Magic Artifact, I can fulfill your wish."

However, the young cultivator quickly shook his head and refused, saying, "The senior overstates my deed. If not for the senior today, my life would have been lost already. The senior has saved my life with great kindness; this small matter is nothing in comparison—how could I have the effrontery to ask the senior for a reward!"

"Young man, it's good to be grateful and to seek to repay kindness, but you should also learn to seize every opportunity that can aid your advancement. Since I am willing to give you a reward today, you might as well accept it."

Zhou Chun, continuing to speak, did not wait for the young cultivator's response. He projected his Divine Sense into his Storage Pouch, took out a top-grade first-order Magic Artifact and two bottles of Elixirs that help advance the cultivation and Mana of Qi Refinement stage cultivators, and tossed them to the individual.

On his way to Yang Kingdom, he needed to stabilize people's hearts, thus Zhou Chun had intentionally brought some things from the Zhou Family Treasury that could win people over. Now was the perfect time to give some of them to the young cultivator before him.

"Take them. You've earned these."

After speaking, without waiting for the young cultivator's thanks, Zhou Chun moved swiftly, jumping onto the Silver Lightning Python Baibai that was rising in the thicket, and departed into the distance.

Seeing this, the young cultivator who had just caught the items he left behind in his hands called out loudly to Zhou Chun's retreating figure, "Senior, please leave your name so that I, Zhang Liang, will not forget the great kindness you showed today!"

"My common name is of no import. If fate permits our paths to cross again, you shall come to know it!"

The distant voice came from the sky, and the young cultivator Zhang Liang could only watch as the figure rode away on the python, disappearing from view.

"Such an extraordinary senior will surely not be a nameless individual. Since he is not a cultivator from my Shen Country, he must be from the neighboring Jingguo or Cheng Country. If I am fortunate enough to go to these countries one day, I must pay close attention and inquire about this senior in hopes of learning the name of my benefactor!"

Below the cliff, the young cultivator Zhang Liang withdrew his gaze, then lowered his head to look at the Magic Artifact and Elixirs in his hands, gradually showing a smile of delight.

Though his words refused the reward, having such a gift now in hand naturally made him happy.

Afterward, he tidied up the charred corpse on the ground and quickly left the area.
