Beast Taming Immortal Clan

After bidding farewell to Zhang Mengde, Zhou Chun immediately began investigating intelligence about the Flying Snow Palace and the Ice Moon Toad.

Just as Zhang Mengde himself said, the [Ice Moon Toad] is indeed quite famous in the Ice Yi Kingdom, and many cultivators who know about the Flying Snow Palace have heard of this monster.

But this is not a good thing!

According to the information Zhou Chun gathered, the Ice Moon Toad is extremely important to the cultivators of the Flying Snow Palace. Its toad venom and blood are essential materials for the Flying Snow Palace to refine certain pills.

One of the more convincing rumors is that the toad venom of the third-tier [Ice Moon Toad] can be used as the main ingredient to refine the elixir [Ice Essence Pill], which helps to open the Purple Mansion.

This pill is most effective for cultivators who practice ice-attribute techniques. It is not much worse than a general-purpose elixir like the Purple Dust Pill, and it can also be used in combination with other spiritual items that help open the Purple Mansion.

Every year, the shops run by Feixue Palace release one [Ice Essence Pill] for people to bid on. Sometimes, multiple of these pills will appear at auctions.

Even some of the major sects in the Ice Kingdom would seek to purchase this kind of elixir in bulk from the Flying Snow Palace.

With its advantage of mass-producing this kind of elixir, Feixue Palace has become the power with the most Purple Mansion stage cultivators and Golden Core stage cultivators in Bingyi Kingdom!

It is said that there are now more than 400 cultivators at the Purple Mansion stage, and at least one Foundation Establishment cultivator from Feixue Palace successfully opens the Purple Mansion every year.

At the same time, thanks to this huge base of Purple Mansion stage cultivators, the number of Golden Core stage cultivators in Flying Snow Palace has also increased significantly. Now there are nearly thirty Golden Core stage cultivators alone, which is no less than the Moon Wheel Sect, the number one sect in Jing Kingdom!

However, the Flying Snow Palace is not the most powerful force in the Ice Barbarian Kingdom!

In addition, the toad venom of the Ice Moon Toad can not only be used to refine the Ice Essence Pill, but also as a material to refine other pills with very good effects. Its demon core is the best material to refine certain barrier-breaking spiritual pills.

There are even rumors that the toad venom from the fourth-tier [Ice Moon Toad] has the effect of replacing [Extreme Cold Ice Marrow Liquid]!

Since the Ice Moon Toad has such great uses, it shows how much the Flying Snow Palace values ​​this kind of demonic beast.

To put it bluntly, the importance of even one of Feixue Palace's own Purple Mansion stage cultivators is not as great as that of a third-tier [Ice Moon Toad].

In order to prevent the Ice Moon Toad from falling into the wrong hands and to protect the population of this demonic beast, Flying Snow Palace does not even allow its disciples to form contracts with this demonic beast. Instead, the entire population is raised in a free-range manner within the mountain gate. Even ordinary Flying Snow Palace cultivators at the Purple Mansion stage have no opportunity to come into contact with these demonic beasts!

Zhou Chun also heard a piece of news, the truth of which was unknown, that the Nascent Soul stage cultivators of the Flying Snow Palace would scan the Snow Mountain Heavenly Pool with their divine sense every day during their cultivation to count the number of the [Ice Moon Toad] clan!

It is through these various methods of strict control and defense that, even though many major sects in the Ice Kingdom covet the effects of the [Ice Moon Toad] and want to obtain it, no one has ever been heard of succeeding so far.

After understanding all of this, Zhou Chun's joy vanished completely.

According to his own estimation, if he wanted to successfully cultivate the "Nine Transformations of the Holy Spirit: Moon Toad Chapter", he either needed to obtain the spiritual blood of a purebred [Taiyin Moon Toad], or he needed to obtain a large amount of the life essence blood of a fourth-order demon beast with the bloodline of [Taiyin Moon Toad].

If it's the latter, he either has to kill a fourth-tier demon beast and extract all its life essence, or he has to capture a fourth-tier demon beast and keep it by his side, extracting some of its life essence every now and then.

Regardless of the method, it means he must take away a fourth-tier [Ice Moon Toad]!

However, the number of fourth-tier [Ice Moon Toads] is extremely rare. Flying Snow Palace has accumulated and cultivated less than a handful of them over thousands of years. The value of each one is immeasurable!

If Zhou Chun dares to touch the fourth-tier [Ice Moon Toad] of Flying Snow Palace, it is estimated that the Nascent Soul stage cultivators of Flying Snow Palace will personally come to hunt him down.

Moreover, it is simply unrealistic to kill or capture such a fourth-tier demonic beast within the gates of Feixue Palace.

So this seemingly easy-to-obtain information has become the most difficult thing to accomplish!

It's just that it's difficult to handle, but that doesn't mean it's not going to be done.

For Zhou Chun, he would do his best to fight for any glimmer of hope.

However, he wouldn't place all his hopes on the [Ice Moon Toad]. The original plan to gather intelligence through the vast number of cultivators in the Ice Barbarian Kingdom would still continue.

But before anything else could be put into action, Zhou Chun had one more thing to do: try to obtain some of the spirit blood of the Ice Moon Toad.

It doesn't have to be the spirit blood of a fourth-tier [Ice Moon Toad]; even a third-tier one will do.

He only needs this to determine whether the Ice Moon Toad truly possesses the bloodline of the Yin Moon Toad.

Compared to directly obtaining a corpse of an Ice Moon Toad, or a live Ice Moon Toad, this matter, while challenging, is not particularly difficult.

After all, Feixue Palace itself often collects the spiritual blood of the Ice Moon Toad to refine pills and medicines. As long as Zhou Chun's demand is not too large, the relevant personnel still have room to operate and can keep some for themselves.

It took Zhou Chun about half a year to successfully obtain a bottle of third-tier [Ice Moon Toad] spirit blood from a Purple Mansion stage cultivator of the Flying Snow Palace with the help of an intermediary.

For just one bottle of third-tier demon beast blood, he paid a price of 30,000 spirit coins, enough to buy an ordinary low-grade third-tier magic weapon!

There was nothing he could do; scarcity drives up prices. Even though Zhou Chun knew he was being ripped off, he had no choice but to accept it.

After obtaining the spirit blood, he immediately followed the method recorded in "The Nine Transformations of the Holy Spirit: The Moon Toad Chapter" to first purify the bottle of spirit blood, and then used it as a medium to cultivate this secret technique.

To Zhou Chun's delight, he could indeed feel the effects of this cultivation, proving that the [Ice Moon Toad] truly possessed the bloodline of the [Taiyin Moon Toad].

Unfortunately, the spiritual blood of a third-tier [Ice Moon Toad] is extremely ineffective for cultivating the secret technique "Nine Transformations of the Holy Spirit: Moon Toad Chapter," making it impossible to complete the initial stages of the secret technique using it.

It seems everything is just as he thought. Unless he kills or captures a fourth-tier [Ice Moon Toad], there's no point in even talking about cultivation.

In that case, he really needs to plan carefully!

Zhou Chun immediately settled down in Bingyi Kingdom. Under the guise of traveling and making friends, he frequently visited Golden Core cultivators from various forces in Bingyi Kingdom to inquire about the bloodline of the [Taiyin Moon Toad] demon beast, naturally excluding the [Ice Moon Toad] option.

In an icy and snowy environment like the Ice Barbarian Kingdom, toad-like monsters are extremely rare. If there were other toad-like monsters in the wild, Zhou Chun could easily find out from those who knew about them by offering a high reward.

For two long years, Zhou Chun had also received news of another type of ice-attribute third-tier toad-like demon beast. However, when he went to find that ice toad according to the news, he did not find that it possessed the bloodline of the [Taiyin Moon Toad]. He only obtained the corpse of a third-tier low-grade demon beast and its demon core.

Zhou Chun had been secretly and openly gathering intelligence on the Ice Moon Toad all along.

But just as he had initially feared, the fact that even other forces in the Ice Barbarian Kingdom coveted the effects of the [Ice Moon Toad] yet had not been able to obtain this demonic beast showed just how difficult it was to acquire!

During his investigations over the past two years, Zhou Chun has learned of many cases of failed attempts to steal the Ice Moon Toad.

There was even a powerful force in the Ice Barbarian Kingdom that spent hundreds of years cultivating a Foundation Establishment cultivator to the Core Formation stage through the planting of spies, hoping that the cultivator would steal the Ice Moon Toad.

However, that Golden Core cultivator ultimately failed!

He had just brought a pair of third-tier [Ice Moon Toads] out of the Flying Snow Palace gate when he somehow exposed himself and was immediately captured by the Nascent Soul stage cultivators of the Flying Snow Palace!

In the history of Flying Snow Palace, failed attempts to steal the Ice Moon Toad were not uncommon.

But so far, I haven't heard of anyone actually succeeding!

Therefore, Zhou Chun no longer dared to hold out any hope that he could take the [Ice Moon Toad] away from the Flying Snow Palace.

For him, the cultivation of "Nine Transformations of the Holy Spirit: The Moon Toad Chapter" was important, but not to the point where he needed to risk his life.

Even if he fails to cultivate to the Golden Core stage, he can always wait until he reaches the Nascent Soul stage to start cultivating.

If he successfully forms his Nascent Soul, he should be able to do so, provided he is willing to pay a sufficient price to take away a dead fourth-tier [Ice Moon Toad] from Flying Snow Palace, or to have Flying Snow Palace provide him with the life essence of a fourth-tier [Ice Moon Toad] for a long time.

So after carefully weighing the difficulty of obtaining the fourth-tier [Ice Moon Toad], Zhou Chun began to back down, preparing to put the matter aside if it really didn't work out, and go back to cultivate properly first.

Just as he was preparing to return home and begin purchasing a large quantity of special products and spiritual items from the Bingyi Kingdom to bring back to Jing Kingdom, he suddenly received another clue.

The person who provided him with the clue this time was a late-stage Purple Mansion cultivator. According to him, he had heard the sound of a toad in a certain ice lake deep in the ice plains northeast of the Ice Barbarian Kingdom, and confirmed that it was at least the cry of a fourth-order demon beast!

"This junior dares not deceive you, senior. I was not the only one who heard that thunderous toad croaking. Several fellow Daoists who were traveling with me also heard it. One of them had a third-tier low-grade demonic beast, the Ice Wind Python, which was instantly terrified upon hearing the croaking and frantically warned him!"

"If you don't believe me, senior, I can summon those fellow Daoists to be my witnesses!"

Inside a teahouse, Zhou Chun sat on a stool, quietly sipping fragrant tea. Beside him, a burly man in a white robe with a rugged face bowed and spoke cautiously to him about the information he knew.

According to the white-robed giant himself, he was originally a rogue cultivator from outside the Ice Barbarian Kingdom. Because he cultivated ice-attribute techniques, he had been in the Ice Barbarian Kingdom for over a hundred years. Every now and then, he would invite some familiar Purple Mansion stage cultivators to go on adventures and search for treasures deep in the ice plains.

The eastern and northern sides of the Ice Kingdom are uninhabited ice plains where life is rare, but some places also generate spiritual veins and spiritual lands, giving birth to rare and precious ice-attribute spiritual creatures.

Many cultivators from the Ice Kingdom would travel there in search of these rare and precious items.

The third-tier ice toad that Zhou Chun had previously killed was also a special creature from the ice plains.

Therefore, after listening to the white-robed giant's detailed description, he pondered for a moment, then looked at the man and said, "I'll trust you this once, but directions are difficult to discern on the icy plains, and large-scale blizzards frequently break out. If you want to get the bounty, you must lead the way for me!"

The blizzards on the ice plains can vary in size. Some can sweep across thousands of miles, with howling winds that can prevent Foundation Establishment cultivators from flying. Even if Golden Core cultivators can fly in them, the mana they consume will increase several times, and their speed will be extremely slow.

At the same time, it is easier to get lost, and go directly thousands of miles away from the destination.

There are few reliable landmarks on the ice field, and the terrain is easily altered by blizzards. Even with a map and the ability to determine direction, finding your destination again after getting lost is extremely difficult.

Furthermore, once lost, it is easy to stumble into dangerous places or monster lairs due to unfamiliarity with the environment.

Therefore, if you want to go deep into the ice plains to find something, you usually have to find a cultivator who knows the way to lead the way.

However, the white-robed giant already knew that he was not a native cultivator of the Ice Barbarian Kingdom before he came to see him, so how could he dare to follow a mid-stage Golden Core cultivator like him deep into the Ice Plains?

If Zhou Chun were to kill him and then leave Bingyi Kingdom, even if the matter were to be exposed, there would be no one to avenge him.

Therefore, upon hearing Zhou Chun's words, the man immediately shook his head repeatedly and said, "Senior Zhang, please forgive me for not being able to agree to this request. I can only provide you with a map; I absolutely dare not agree to lead the way!"

Are you worried that Zhang might harm you?

Zhou Chun frowned slightly as he looked at the burly man in white robes and said in a deep voice, "If that's the case, I, Zhang, can go with you to find someone to vouch for you and offer some collateral sufficient to buy your life. Now you should be at ease!"

The guarantor service he mentioned was a unique service that the Ice Barbarian Kingdom offered to guide people across the ice plains.

Some mid- to low-level cultivators, when guiding someone stronger than themselves, will ask the person to first pledge valuable items to a trusted elder or senior to prevent the other party from discarding them after they have served their purpose.

If the person fails to return alive, the collateral will be used as a death benefit and given to designated relatives or friends.

He had previously sent someone to kill that third-tier ice toad, and that's what he did.

However, the burly man in white robes seemed unwilling to take any risks. After he finished speaking, he repeatedly shook his head and said, "Senior Zhang, I appreciate your kindness, but I really have no intention of leading the way. Please forgive me!"

Hearing this, Zhou Chun didn't try to persuade him further, but simply nodded and said, "Since you really don't want to, I won't force you. Could you introduce your companions to guide me?"

The burly man in white robes shook his head again, saying, "I'm afraid that won't work. My companions all have their own concerns, and I've never heard of them leading the way for anyone!"

"This won't work, that won't work, fellow Daoist, are you perhaps toying with me? Do you expect me to risk venturing into the icy plains based solely on your word? And to pay you a hefty reward!"

Zhou Chun's face darkened, and his tone and demeanor instantly became unfriendly.

He just has a good temper, not that he doesn't have one.

He wouldn't tolerate someone who tries to claim a reward based on only one side of the story.

As soon as he got angry, the white-robed giant, who was only at the late stage of the Purple Mansion realm, immediately felt an invisible pressure fall on him, making it hard for him to breathe.

This startled the man, who hurriedly lowered his body, clasped his hands in a gesture of apology, and begged for forgiveness, saying, "Senior, please calm down! Senior, please calm down! I absolutely have not deceived you in any way. I swear to prove that what I said is true!"

"What's the use of swearing an oath? Do you think you can actually form a core?"

Zhou Chun looked at the white-robed man with an unfriendly expression and spoke in a cold tone, seemingly not intending to let the matter rest easily.

This made the white-robed man immediately regret his actions. If he had known it would turn out this way, he would never have been so greedy. He would rather not have accepted Zhou Chun's reward than offend a mid-stage Golden Core cultivator like this!

But now that the mistake has been made, it's too late for him to regret it.

He was extremely anxious at that moment!

However, just as Zhou Chun was considering whether to increase the intensity of his divine sense pressure to force the man to agree to lead the way, the white-robed man seemed to have thought of something and suddenly exclaimed as if he had found a lifeline, "I've got it! I've thought of someone who can lead Senior Zhang!"

He looked at Zhou Chun excitedly and said, "Senior Zhang, you are wise! I know someone who can guide you. He has been there before, and he is absolutely willing to guide you as long as you can offer him the reward you desire!"

"Oh, why don't you tell me first?"

Zhou Chun looked at him with an unchanged expression, slightly relaxing his spiritual pressure.

Feeling the pressure on his body lessen, the white-robed man secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then quickly explained his solution.

It turns out that among the Purple Mansion stage cultivators known to the white-robed giant, some had also been to the frozen lake where a suspected fourth-order toad-like demon beast had appeared. Moreover, that person had a seriously ill daughter who needed to be taken care of, and he had to frequently earn money for medicine to alleviate his daughter's injuries!

Therefore, as long as Zhou Chun can afford the reward and is willing to mortgage something valuable enough, that person will definitely be willing to risk leading the way for Zhou Chun.

Furthermore, to demonstrate his sincerity, the burly man in white robes offered to forgo any reward for providing information.

After learning about this, Zhou Chun thought for a moment and agreed to go with him to meet the person he mentioned.

"We've arrived! This is it. Senior Zhang, please wait a moment. I'll contact Fellow Daoist Wu right away!"

Outside a courtyard located in a secluded corner of the market, the burly man in white robes brought Zhou Chun there. He immediately bowed and clasped his hands in a fawning manner, then took out a communication talisman to notify the owner inside.

After a short while, the courtyard gate opened from the inside, and a middle-aged man with a sorrowful expression came out.

This middle-aged man only had the cultivation level of the mid-stage of the Purple Mansion realm, and he seemed to be injured, as his breathing was somewhat irregular.

Upon seeing Zhou Chun standing with the burly man in white robes, he was immediately startled and quickly bowed, saying, "Junior Wu Yishan greets Senior!"

"Fellow Daoist Wu, you're too kind."

Zhou Chun nodded slightly, then turned his gaze to the white-robed giant, indicating that he should come forward to communicate.

The white-robed man knew he couldn't avoid this, so he took a breath, smiled, and said to Wu Yishan, "Come, come, let me introduce you to Fellow Daoist Wu. This is Senior Zhang Liang."

After saying that, he whispered his purpose, "Senior Zhang Liang has come to hire Fellow Daoist Wu to guide us to the Fish Eye Ice Lake deep in the Ice Plains. This is a very good deal!"

"Fish-eye Ice Lake? That's deep within the ice field, just outside the five-dash line!"

Wu Yishan was slightly startled, and a look of fear immediately appeared in his eyes.

Seeing his reaction, the white-robed man, fearing he might refuse, quickly said, "It's just leading the way. Besides, with Senior Zhang, a mid-stage Golden Core cultivator, watching over us, there won't be any danger. We might even find some spiritual items along the way to suppress my niece's injuries!"

Upon hearing him mention his daughter's chronic illness, Wu Yishan's expression changed slightly, immediately becoming filled with sorrow.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Alright, then please, Senior Zhang and Fellow Daoist Liu, come to my humble abode for a cup of tea. I'll gather some information before making a decision!"

After saying that, he turned to the side, raised his hand, and invited Zhou Chun and the other person into the courtyard.

Upon entering the inner living room, Wu Yishan naturally dared not act as the host and directly invited Zhou Chun to sit at the head of the table, while he and the white-robed giant sat at the lower level.

Shortly after the three sat down, a haggard-looking woman in white came into the living room with tea and offered it to them.

"This is my daughter, Yuzhu. She suffers from a chronic illness and has difficulty moving around. She can only manage to do simple tasks like serving tea and water."

Seeing Zhou Chun's gaze linger on the woman in white, Wu Yishan quickly explained for his daughter, then bowed slightly and said, "My humble abode is simple and lacks fine tea; please forgive any shortcomings, Senior Zhang!"

Unexpectedly, after hearing his words, Zhou Chun suddenly said, "Although your daughter appears weak and frail, there seems to be hidden heat within her body. Could it be that she is suffering from some kind of fire poison?"

Wu Yishan seemed to have heard this before. After a slight pause, he couldn't help but sigh and say, "Senior, you truly have keen insight!"

After saying that, he nodded sadly and said, "That's right, my daughter is suffering from fire poison and has no choice but to rely on the power of an ice-attribute spiritual object to suppress it!"

Seeing that he admitted it, Zhou Chun couldn't help but become more curious and immediately asked, "There are many Golden Core cultivators in the Ice Barbarian Kingdom who practice ice-attribute techniques. Has Fellow Daoist Wu never asked them for help?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Yishan couldn't help but smile wryly and spread his hands, saying, "Of course I've already asked for help! And not just two or three times!"

Then, with despair in his eyes, he murmured in a low voice, "Even Elder Li of the Cold Mountain Sect, who is at the late Golden Core stage, said after personally trying it, that he was not confident he could completely eradicate the fire poison she was born with without harming her life. Who else can I turn to for help?!"

Upon hearing this, the woman in white standing beside him immediately lowered her head deeply, tears streaming down her face as she whispered self-reproachfully, "It's all my fault for being unfilial! If it weren't for me, Father, you wouldn't have had to leave your family and homeland to come to the Ice Kingdom, you wouldn't have had to waste the resources you risked your life to obtain on me, and your cultivation wouldn't have stagnated for decades without any progress!!"

Seeing this, Wu Yishan quickly hugged his daughter and comforted her, saying, "Silly girl, what nonsense are you talking about! I'm your father. As long as I'm still alive, I won't let anything happen to you. This was also your mother's last wish before she passed away!!"

After saying that, he quickly looked at Zhou Chun apologetically and said, "I'm sorry to have made you laugh, Senior Zhang. I'll take my daughter back to her room first and then come to entertain you."

Unexpectedly, Zhou Chun then spoke up, saying, "If Fellow Daoist Wu doesn't mind, I can take a look at your daughter. Of course, if you mind, just pretend I didn't say anything."

"this……"

Wu Yishan paused for a moment, seemingly hesitant, and did not agree immediately.

He had experienced too many disappointments, and hope had turned into despair time and time again, so he dared not have any hope for Zhou Chun's suggestion.

After all, he could sense that Zhou Chun was not a cultivator who practiced ice-attribute or water-attribute techniques, and didn't even seem to be a cultivator who practiced fire-attribute or wood-attribute techniques.

His daughter, Wu Yuzhu, seemed to have a better attitude, or perhaps she had already resigned herself to the situation. She quickly spoke on his behalf, saying, "Since Senior Zhang is willing to lend a helping hand, this junior is naturally extremely grateful!"

"Yes, yes, yes, then I'll trouble you, Senior Zhang!"

Wu Yishan quickly came to his senses and nodded in agreement.

Then Wu Yuzhu took the initiative to walk to Zhou Chun's side and offered her a delicate hand to him.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun didn't hold back and immediately reached out to grab the fair wrist in front of him, channeling a wisp of magic power and divine sense into it to examine the state of the fire poison in Wu Yuzhu's body.

After a while, he released his grip on the woman's hand and lowered his head to ponder.

Upon seeing this, Wu Yishan lost even more hope.

But she still habitually said, "So that Senior Zhang may know that the fire poison in my daughter's body was brought from her mother's womb. Before giving birth to her, her mother was injured by a third-tier poisonous fire lizard. Although she had taken an antidote at the time and refined the toxins in her body afterward, she never expected that there would still be residual poison lurking in the fetus's body!"

"Later, after Yuzhu was born, tests showed she had a superior-grade ice-attribute spiritual root. My husband and I were overjoyed, thinking it was a blessing from heaven, but little did we know that the seeds of disaster had already been sown!"

At this point, a flash of pain crossed his eyes, and he said with a pained expression, "After Yuzhu reached the twelfth level of Qi Refining, during a training session before Foundation Establishment, she was accidentally injured by the poisonous mist sprayed by a first-grade high-level Crimson Fire Serpent. As a result, this awakened the latent fire poison within her body, causing the fire poison power to permeate her entire bloodline!"

"Fortunately, my deceased wife was by my side at the time, and she sacrificed herself by using a forbidden technique to transfer most of the poison from her body into her own, thus preventing her from dying on the spot!"

"But unfortunately, my deceased wife also succumbed to the combined effects of the forbidden technique and the fire poison, and didn't last long afterward!"

After saying this, the man took a deep breath and continued, "Later, I searched far and wide for renowned doctors and finally obtained a method from a senior physician to treat the symptoms. As long as I regularly use some precious ice-attribute spiritual materials to prepare a medicine for my daughter to take, it can suppress the fire poison in her body for a period of time!"

"However, this method also has drawbacks. The higher the girl's cultivation level, the more precious the spiritual items she needs to use. Moreover, if she attempts to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage, she might fail and perish due to the increased fire poison!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chun finally understood where the fire poison in Wu Yuzhu's body came from and why it hadn't been able to kill this mere Qi Refining Stage 12 cultivator.

After thinking about it, he decided to try the [Purifying Essence Water] first to see how it worked.

He then said to Wu Yishan, "I have a kind of spiritual water that is very effective in dispelling fire poison. If you trust me, Fellow Daoist Wu, you can prepare a quiet room for me to try it out."

Upon hearing this, Wu Yishan's heart stirred, and his once dormant spirit seemed to regain some vitality. He quickly replied, "No problem, this junior will take Senior Zhang to my meditation room right away!"

After saying this, he apologized to the white-robed man and then led Zhou Chun and his daughter Wu Yuzhu to his meditation room.

Once inside the quiet room, Zhou Chun first had Wu Yishan wait outside. Then, using an illusion, he tricked Wu Yuzhu, who was only at the Qi Refining stage, and transformed the [Purifying Heaven and Earth Divine Jar] into a jade bottle, feeding her half a jar of [Purifying Yuan Spirit Water].

As it turns out, [Pure Essence Water] lives up to its profound origins.

After Wu Yuzhu drank half a jar of [Purifying Essence Water], the fire toxin in her body was cleared away immediately, and she became visibly much more energetic.

About an hour later, his face turned pale again, and new fire poison grew in his body.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun couldn't help but exclaim, "It seems this fire poison has truly become one with your own bloodline!"

Once integrated with the bloodline, it means that as long as the bloodline does not perish, or the bloodline is fundamentally strengthened to resolve the fire poison, the fire poison will be difficult to eradicate completely.

No wonder Wu Yishan sought help from so many Golden Core cultivators who practiced ice-attribute techniques, yet none of them could completely cure Wu Yuzhu's ailment.

Wu Yuzhu seemed to have known this outcome all along. Instead, she smiled and bowed to Zhou Chunshen, saying, "Senior Zhang's spiritual water has been very effective. This treatment is even better than my father's secret technique used to suppress and neutralize it. I should be able to hold on for the next two or three years!"

Similarly, when Wu Yishan learned from his daughter about the effectiveness of Zhou Chun's treatment, he immediately showed a look of surprise and delight.

After a series of changes in his expression, the man suddenly knelt down and kowtowed to Zhou Chun, saying, "Senior Zhang, your kindness and virtue are beyond measure. If you do not despise me, I am willing to serve you as your servant and obey your every command!"

"Fellow Daoist Wu, what are you doing? Please rise at once!"

Zhou Chun frowned, then immediately flicked his sleeve and used his magic to forcefully lift the person up.

But Wu Yishan, with a pleading expression, repeatedly bowed and said, "Senior Zhang, you are wise. Every word I have said is true, without the slightest falsehood!"

He then said excitedly, "If you are willing to relieve my daughter's internal fire poison every few years, I will be willing to serve you like a slave!"

This month is coming to a close!
