Cultivation: From Servant to Revered Immortal-Chapter 314 - 62: Reactions from All Sides!

"Yes, disciple obeys!"

Zhou Jingsong and the others nodded in agreement.

"Disciple dares to ask one more question!" Zhou Jingsong hesitated for a moment before continuing to ask.

This was a question that they had all unanimously decided to understand in the meeting room.

"Speak!" Zhou Xun raised the spirit tea, gently blew on it, then sipped a small amount, closing his eyes in enjoyment.

"I wonder if the inner core quality that Master formed is the High-Grade True Pill?" Zhou Jingsong asked anxiously.

The others, seeing Zhou Jingsong speak, also looked nervously at Zhou Xun.

Generally speaking, cultivators who form a High-Grade True Pill have a high chance of cultivating to the Late-Stage Core Formation.

Such individuals, across the entire Eastern Wilderness, belong to the very top echelon.

With such a powerful figure residing in the future, Wangchuan Lake’s future will be extremely bright, and their status will rise accordingly.

If Zhou Xun formed only a common True Pill, although Wangchuan Lake would still be quite glorious, at most it would be like White Cloud Immortal City.

Although also quite impressive, it would ultimately fall short by more than just a notch.

Meanwhile, they would still have to depend on the favor of the Cloud Light Sect.

However, Zhou Xun’s answer lifted their spirits greatly.

"Indeed, it is High-Grade!"

Zhou Xun nodded slightly.

At his current position, he no longer needed to reveal talents to gain others’ appreciation like when he visited Master White Cloud years ago. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

Holding back was instead a better choice.

If enemies really prepared to deal with him as a High-Grade True Pill, he would definitely give them a big surprise.

Moreover, the High-Grade True Pill, in today’s Eastern Wilderness, is considered among the highest quality of inner cores, enough to deter any petty schemers.

...

On the other side, after Master Yun Yi left Wangchuan Lake, he did not return to the front lines of Golden Ape Valley.

Instead, he went straight back to the Cloud Light Sect Mountain Gate.

Cloud Light Hall.

As the place where the Sect Leader of Cloud Light Sect handles daily affairs, Master Yun’an usually resides here.

Suddenly, he sensed an extremely intense spiritual pressure approaching, revealing a surprised expression.

"Senior brother?"

"Why is he back!"

So he quickly rose and headed towards the outside of the hall.

Just reaching the doorway, Master Yun Yi descended from the escape light.

"Greetings, senior brother!"

Master Yun’an bowed in greeting.

The two were from the same sect and had a very close relationship.

Master Yun’an’s position as Sect Leader was largely due to the support of Master Yun Yi.

Otherwise, with a dozen Fake Pills in Cloud Light Sect, why would they let him be the Sect Leader?

"It’s been a long time, junior brother!" Master Yun Yi immediately returned the bow.

"Senior brother, are you back because of Master Fengyue’s matter?" Master Yun’an said, walking into the hall together with Master Yun Yi.

"Indeed!" Master Yun Yi nodded.

"How does senior brother plan to handle it?" Master Yun’an inquired.

Master Yun Yi, upon receiving Master Yun’an’s message, went directly from Golden Ape Valley to Wangchuan Lake, so Master Yun’an was unaware that his senior brother had already resolved the matter,

and thought he returned directly to Cloud Light Sect.

"This matter is already resolved by your brother!" Master Yun Yi hesitated for a moment before replying.

"Oh!"

"With senior brother taking action, Zhou Xun must have been captured!" Master Yun’an nodded.

"Not at all!"

Master Yun Yi sighed and continued:

"I regret my previous decision now!"

"Regret?" Upon hearing this, Master Yun’an showed a surprised expression.

Having known each other for hundreds of years, he was very familiar with his senior brother’s character.

He was someone who was decisive and swift in action.

Now he actually spoke of "regret."

Could something incomprehensible have happened, prompting such curiosity?

"What do you mean by this?"

Upon hearing this, Master Yun Yi’s expression turned gloomy, and after a moment of silence, he finally spoke:

"We all underestimated Zhou Xun!"

"This person is even more terrifying than Master White Cloud of the past!"

"The day I received your message and learned of Junior Sister Fengyue’s demise, I immediately set out from Golden Ape Valley towards Wangchuan Lake!"

"Upon arriving there, do you know what I saw?"

"What?" Master Yun’an asked curiously.

"Core Formation vision!"

"The just concluded Core Formation vision!"

Master Yun Yi spoke very slowly, with a look of reminiscence on his face, appearing very complex.

"What!"

Upon hearing this, Master Yun’an was shocked.

"Could it be that when Junior Sister Fengyue perished, he had not yet formed his core and was still a Foundation Establishment cultivator?"

"To overthrow a True Pill with a Foundation Establishment body!"

"This... this..."

"Perhaps those ancient prodigies recorded in the scriptures were no more than this!"

"Many of those people ultimately achieved Great Cultivator status, and some even reached higher levels!"

"Could it be that Zhou Xun is also such a person!"

Master Yun’an was full of disbelief, staring wide-eyed at Master Yun Yi, and his voice involuntarily rose.

If outsiders saw this, they would undoubtedly be flabbergasted.

The usually steady and dignified Sect Leader had actually lost his composure like this.

"It’s very likely!" Master Yun Yi’s tone was full of regret.

That day, Master Jin Hong had earnestly urged me to recruit Zhou Xun.

If only I had done so.

A Core Formation Cultivator under seventy years old, what a sight it would be if he joined our Cloud Light Sect.

The future prosperity of the Cloud Light Sect would be incredible!

But now, it’s all an illusion.

"Then, what did you do later, Senior Brother?" Master Yun’an hurriedly asked.

"Later, I thought since he had just broken through, perhaps his combat strength was lacking, so I went to challenge him!"

"Surprisingly, Zhou Xun actually agreed, and then I battled him fiercely!"

Master Yun Yi continued to answer.

"And what was the result?" Master Yun’an asked. However, from his Senior Brother’s expression, he could already guess somewhat.

"The result?"

Master Yun Yi gave a self-mocking smile.

"I am indeed old; I couldn’t defeat a newly broken-through Core Formation cultivator!"

"What? Even you, Senior Brother..."

Master Yun’an’s complexion changed drastically,

As the Sect Leader of Cloud Light Sect, he was well-informed and naturally knew how monstrous it was for someone newly broken through to battle a Middle-Stage Core Formation Cultivator.

"Could it be that Zhou Xun condensed an... an... Immortal Golden Core!!!"

"This... this is impossible. In the thousands of years of Eastern Wilderness, no cultivator has condensed a Golden Core. How could he?"

"No, it’s absolutely impossible!"

"You know, even Master Tianci is only half-step Golden Core, and he has a Celestial Spirit Root!"

Master Tianci, the First Cultivator of the Eastern Wilderness Cultivation Realm, Peak Core Formation cultivation.

He is a famous Celestial Spirit Root cultivator in Eastern Wilderness, with an Inner Core quality of half-step Golden Core.

"It should also be a half-step Golden Core!"

"Plus, he is a Thunder Cultivator, whose combat power already exceeds others of the same stage. The two combined, he was thus evenly matched with me!"

Master Yun Yi’s keen eyes naturally discerned Zhou Xun’s background.

"What should our Cloud Light Sect do now? He has formed the Core, and with his Thunder Cultivator identity, even if we gather the entire sect’s power, we may not be able to detain him,"

"And with his talent, in just another half a year, he could be a disaster for the Cloud Light Sect!"

Master Yun’an immediately saw the crux of the matter, his face extremely grim.

"Rest assured, Junior Brother, I have already struck a deal with him, ensuring there’s no problem preserving our Cloud Light Sect’s legacy,"

Seeing this, Master Yun Yi reassured him.

"Oh, really? May I know what kind of terms you proposed, Senior Brother?" Master Yun’an instantly breathed easier.

Master Yun Yi then recounted his terms to his Junior Brother.

"Senior Brother, you’re indeed wise. Xueying is talented and indeed the best person to inherit your teachings,"

"No time to lose, I think you should quickly return to Golden Ape Valley and take Xueying under your tutelage,"

"As for those spirit medicines and spirit stones, I will arrange for someone to send them over!" Master Yun’an at that moment was full of relief and even had a hint of joy.

He wasn’t bothered at all by the sect having to give up so many treasures of heaven and earth.

"That sounds good, then I entrust Wangchuan Lake to you, Junior Brother. I will now return to Golden Ape Valley!"

After saying this, Master Yun Yi didn’t linger, soaring into the sky and transforming into a long yellow rainbow, speeding towards Golden Ape Valley.

...

Meanwhile, at Wangchuan Lake.

After getting exact news from Zhou Xun, Zhou Jingsong and others spread the news of Zhou Xun’s successful Core Formation and condensation of a High-Grade True Pill.

The first to receive the news, naturally, was Wangchuan Square.

At this moment, cheers filled Wangchuan Square.

To celebrate Zhou Xun’s successful Core Formation.

Wangchuan Square announced a one-year rent reduction for all shops and Spirit Fields, and for the next year, all stalls in the square can be set up for free.

Opened the Tier One High-Grade Cultivation Hundred Arts Inheritance Four Sects, including Alchemy, Talisman Making, Qi Cultivation, Spirit Plant.

At the same time, they established a Spirit Testing Tower, where every newcomer to Wangchuan Square can test their Spiritual Root for free.

"Elder Zhou is truly magnanimous!"

"The Island Master is wise!"

The matter of opening the Cultivation Hundred Arts Inheritance and Spirit Testing Tower was intentionally done by Zhou Xun.

Currently, Wangchuan Square’s foundation is shallow, lacking a large number of talents in all areas.

Now, with these inheritances open, it’s the perfect time for him to select those truly talented in these areas.

If they don’t join Wangchuan Lake, that’s even simpler.

The subsequent inheritance of these skills is in Zhou Xun’s hands. If they wish to advance, they won’t dare not join.

And the Spirit Testing Tower was to select cultivation prodigies with exceptional Spirit Root qualities.

Zhou Xun rose from the bottom.

He knows well how many cultivators with outstanding Spirit Roots fall prey to Demon Beasts while struggling to survive as Qi Cultivation at the first or second level.

On the other side, Song Family store.

It’s the store opened by the Song Family from Qingyue Square, serving as a communication hub for Song Family with Zhou Xun.

Responsible for this store is a third-generation disciple of the Song Family, Song Yiqing’s own brother, Song Chengyuan.

Upon hearing the news of Zhou Xun’s Core Formation, he first didn’t believe it, then wrote to Song Yiqing for confirmation. After receiving Song Yiqing’s affirmation, Song Chengyuan was overjoyed.

He then hastily sent the news back to the family.

This scene played out in many corners of Wangchuan Square.

Ever since Zhou Xun killed the Celestial Feather Sect cultivator, most of the forces in the western part of Xui Country have established bases in Wangchuan Square as backup for their families.

Thus, the news of Zhou Xun’s Core Formation and condensation of a High-Grade True Pill quickly spread to every corner of Xui Country.
