Clan Cultivation: Starting from Beast Taming Chapter 1380 - 558: Plotting with a Tiger [Seeking Subscript

Yet Zhou Chun replied with neither humility nor arrogance, "I admit my talents are modest, but I have trained in secret techniques to avoid soul-searching, and my Divine Soul is naturally strong, different from others. If Senior Zhongxuan Demon King wishes to search my soul, I fear it won’t be easy to obtain the information you seek!"

Finishing his words, he earnestly continued, "Furthermore, how could I dare play tricks with you, Senior? I rely request a clear answer from you. What do you plan to do with ? Perhaps you can inform earlier, so I won’t spend each day in fear and speculation!"

Upon hearing his words, Zhongxuan Demon King initially focused his malevolent gaze on him for a long mont, even exerting Divine Sense pressure, attempting to forcibly open his Purple Mansion’s gate!

But after probing for a while and confirming Zhou Chun’s Purple Mansion’s Sea of Consciousness was indeed unusually solid, Zhongxuan Demon King ceased his probing and fell silent.

He remained silent for so ti before looking at Zhou Chun and saying, "Young one, if you wisely dissolve the contract with that little turtle, this king can spare you, allowing you to leave Misty Immortal Mountain!"

This was the first ti he formally stated the conditions for releasing Zhou Chun, which indicated Zhou Chun’s previous words and actions had indeed affected him.

However, Zhou Chun was not easily satisfied and did not intend to exchange his pet’s freedom for his own freedom.

Therefore, he quickly responded, "Our Human Clan has a saying: ’A forced lon is not sweet!’

"If the Stone itself doesn’t wish to stay here, Zhongxuan Demon King, even if you forcibly dissolve my contract with it, what then? If its heart is not here, can you forcibly keep it?"

"If you, seeking to forcefully keep it, apply certain control techniques, aren’t you then treating it as a servant? Do you think it will eventually appreciate and thank you for this servitude, or resent you instead?"

"Using the guise of ’for its good,’ you forcefully control and enslave it, which surely wasn’t the intention of the Sky-Supporting Demon King who passed the Bearer Tortoise Clan legacy to you!"

Saying this, not waiting for the Zhongxuan Demon King to rebut, he imdiately continued, "Senior, you wish to know how I witnessed the God Transformation Venerable battling others, let tell you, it is related to !"

He then fully narrated the events of Bailong Thunder Flood Dragon breaking into the Fourth Order, attracting the Fifth Order Thunder Flood Dragon’s dragon robbing, and subsequently falling into the God Transformation Venerable’s calculations.

After recounting the events, he spoke firmly, "Now Bailong Thunder Flood Dragon still chooses to follow in cultivation. Its growth in cultivation speed has not faltered by staying with , but instead, we mutually benefit each other and grow together!"

Having listened to his lengthy discourse, Zhongxuan Demon King was still inwardly reflecting on his previous words.

The lands of Liang Country are far too distant from Jingguo Country, and Zhongxuan Demon King, being confined to Misty Immortal Mountain, seldom left.

Its interactions with other demon kings were mostly initiated by them visiting upon hearing of its reputation.

Or when the demon kings disguised as Human Clan cultivators traveled among human countries, occasionally passing through Liang Country, they would communicate by chance.

Therefore, its knowledge of intelligence outside Liang Country was very limited.

The Golden Horn Dragon King of Dragon Abyss Marsh, with cultivation level below the Sixth Order, could directly battle the Human Clan’s God Transformation Venerable and escape safely back to Dragon Abyss.

This news indeed shocked it upon first hearing!

Even it, due to its special origins, dared to fight Great Nascent Soul Late Stage Cultivators within Misty Immortal Mountain. But faced with a cultivation level one major realm higher, it knew it wouldn’t last more than a few moves before perishing.

Even if it later advances to Sixth Order Superior Demon King, it won’t change this outco!

In fact, the barrier of the Superior Sixth Order has hindered it for over a thousand years, only recently seeing a small breakthrough opportunity.

It couldn’t imagine how extraordinary the Golden Horn Demon King must be to directly confront a God Transformation Venerable at Fifth Order Superior level!

For a ti, it felt a strong yearning, wishing to make contact with him.

After being silent for an unknown amount of ti, Zhongxuan Demon King regained his senses, pondering the intention behind Zhou Chun’s previous words.

After thoughtful consideration, he lightly smiled and said, "Young one, your eloquence is comndable, but unfortunately, in this world, only power truly convinces!"

"This king has lived for thousands of years, witnessing generations of demon beasts from birth to death within Misty Immortal Mountain, knowing better than you what matters to demon beasts!"

"You may indeed have skill and luck, cultivating extraordinary beasts like the Thunder Flood Dragon and Bearer Tortoise, capturing Wood Charm as a spirit pet, but your cultivation strength is lacking. You cannot truly translate these demons’ potential into power!"

"If that little turtle follows here, I can assure it reaches Fourth Order peak within 500 years, with a 50% chance of successfully passing the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation!"

"If it follows you, a young one, I fear you will exhaust your lifespan sitting in transformation before it reaches that level!"

In the end, his words were filled with disregard, showing no confidence that Zhou Chun might succeed in Breaking the Elixir to Form the Nascent Soul!

But Zhou Chun didn’t care about his lack of confidence. He only wished to strive for what he wanted.

He then calmly said, "What you have witnessed and experienced throughout your long life, I dare not speak to its truth, but I have lived for hundreds of years, witnessed enduring bonds, and believe in the deep connection between and the Stone, not easily broken by external factors!"

"With both you and holding firm beliefs, neither convincible by the other, why not let ti decide who is right?"

He had voiced similar words before, resulting in suppression and confinent by Zhongxuan Demon King, and still speaking while restrained.

However, this ti, upon raising it again, Zhongxuan Demon King’s response was not as intense.

This may be the influence of Zhou Chun’s previous words.

Zhongxuan Demon King pondered briefly before saying, "This king now holds the absolute upper hand, why would I bet with you? What stakes do you propose?"

Although he spoke those words, his tone had noticeably softened.

Zhou Chun detected this and realized his chance, eagerly replied, "My cultivation is minor, naturally having nothing to gamble with you, senior. But if you fancy sothing from , even if it’s my life, it can serve as a stake for a bet!"

"Oh, gambling with your life, seems you’re not ordinary confident!"

Zhongxuan Demon King’s eyes glinted, his gaze on Zhou Chun slightly changed.

"I’ve spoken, I have imnse confidence in the bond between and the Stone, believing it won’t forsake years of sentint for re externalities!"

Zhou Chun’s words were resolute, filled with forthright confidence.

Seeing this, Zhongxuan Demon King suddenly shouted, "Fine, this king will wager with you. If you lose, don’t leave your life here, just run an errand to Dragon Abyss and deliver a ssage to the Golden Horn Dragon King!"

"No problem, I agree to your terms, senior!"

Zhou Chun unhesitatingly replied, feeling relieved inwardly.

Then he pressed further, "Since you’ve agreed to the bet, could you release now? Also, if the Stone wishes to advance, it would take considerable ti, right? Can you let go to greet waiting companions outside?"

Unexpectedly, Zhongxuan Demon King responded indifferently, "Releasing you isn’t urgent; since the turtle matter is paused, now let’s discuss your Wood Charm!"

He then swept his sleeves, lifting Zhou Chun’s suppression and confinent.

At this point, however, Zhou Chun showed no joy in escaping but an anxious face as he asked, "I don’t understand, senior, why you brought up Mu Sang?"
