Clan Cultivation: Starting from Beast Taming

Yunzhou, Yunyue Mountain Range.

When the Zhou Family members stepped onto the stage again, all eyes in the venue converged on the platform.

Was it the Zhou Family's man-beast combat strategy that was more powerful, or was the foundation of the Golden Core aristocratic families stronger?

The audience was very much looking forward to the result, eager to know.

The Zheng Family from Yuezhou was a cultivation family with a legacy spanning more than two thousand years; since the emergence of their first Golden Core Stage cultivator over fourteen hundred years ago, they've had two more appear during the millennium.

Moreover, the Zheng Family currently had a very good relationship with the Moon Wheel Sect, which was nearly the direct force of the sect.

This time, at the "Hundred Clans Conference," the Zheng Family, with the intention of tempering their clan members, also sent quite a few to participate.

In the Purple Mansion Venue, they also had a lineup of three cultivators—early, mid, and late-stage Purple Mansion—but usually, the late-stage Purple Mansion cultivator would not take action.

And in the Foundation Establishment Venue, they had three late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators with two mid-stage.

As for the Qi Refining Venue, there's no need to say much; almost all the families had a similar lineup.

With the Zheng Family's lineup, there was no suspense in the Purple Mansion Venue. After Zhou Mingde went up, he didn't bother to release the Fire Divine Jackal, directly going one-on-one with the Zheng Family's early-stage Purple Mansion cultivator.

After exchanging a dozen or so moves, Zhou Mingde took the initiative to admit defeat and leave the stage.

Then, the main event of the battle began.

With the entry of ten Foundation Establishment cultivators, the audience's attention instantly became solemn.

How would the Zhou Family deal with the three late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Zheng Family?

The answer was revealed quickly!

On the side of the Zhou Family, unsurprisingly, it was Zhou Daoyi, Zhou Daoquan, and Zhou Chun who were to face the three late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators.

But to the audience's surprise, Zhou Chun did not keep the Silver Lightning Python by his side to face the enemy but sent it to assist Zhou Jiarui against another mid-stage Foundation Establishment Zheng Family cultivator.

At the same time, Zhou Daoquan sent the second-stage mid-grade Vermilion Flame Crane to support Zhou Jiapeng, teaming up with Zhou Jiapeng's second-stage Spirit Pet, the Golden Winged Iron Feather Hawk, to attack his opponent.

As for his other second-stage Spirit Pet, the Earth Armored Bear, it was engaged in battle with a second-stage Demon Ox released by one of the Zheng Family's late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators.

"That Vice Clan Leader of the Zhou Family really has some nerve! Sending away the most offensive Silver Lightning Python to help a clan elder, does he really think a mere early Foundation Establishment cultivator along with a second-stage lower-grade Spirit Turtle can stand against a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator from a Golden Core family?"

Seeing this scene, many in the audience changed expressions and voiced their doubts.

However, the performance of Zhou Chun and his servant immediately shattered all their doubts.

Golden light flowed around the Golden Armor Rock Turtle, and the second-stage strengthening spell "Golden Stone Body" was activated, instantly enhancing its physical body to an absurd degree.

At the same time, with a swipe of its claws on the ground, a thick earthy yellow light arose from its carapace, forming a yellow protective barrier that enveloped both its master, Zhou Chun, and itself.

Zhou Chun, in turn, had a surge of golden light around him, and behind the yellow protective barrier, he added another layer of golden protective shield onto himself.

After establishing his multilayered defense, he then pulled out the "Sun Glare Wheel" to contend with his opponent's Flying Sword Talisman, while also deploying the "Flying Dragon Snatch" artifact to counterattack, forcing his opponent to divide their focus on using a Defensive Dharma Artifact to block.

As a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, his opponent naturally didn't want to fail to subdue an early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Easily deflecting Zhou Chun's offensive, he first threw a silver teapot artifact into the air, and with a boost of mana, mists of silver emerged from the spout, transforming into countless silver-edged blades flying towards Zhou Chun.

Then, with a flick of his hand, he spurred his Flying Sword that was entangled with the "Sun Glare Wheel."

In a flash, the silver-white Flying Sword beamed brightly, easily blasting the golden wheel artifact away, then streaking toward Zhou Chun like a silver meteor.

Witnessing this, Zhou Chun was slightly alarmed and hastily asked the Golden Armor Rock Turtle to intercept.

But the sword technique secret of the late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator was not so easily countered!

The "Sky-Splitting Golden Sword" released by the Golden Armor Rock Turtle was directly shattered by the silver meteor, which then relentlessly struck the yellow protective barrier.

Bang!

In an instant, the powerful "Earth Shield" spell shattered and dissipated on the spot, and Zhou Chun, who was on the back of the Golden Armor Rock Turtle, was also sent flying by the blow.

But fortunately, after the two previous interceptions, the power of the opponent's sword was nearly halved, so although Zhou Chun was sent flying, it did not truly penetrate his protective "Golden Cauldron Profound Light."

This outcome clearly surprised the Zheng Family cultivator, with a look of astonishment flashing in his eyes.

But surprise aside, his assault did not pause.

Instantly spurring the silver teapot artifact again, he unleashed countless more silver blades slashing towards Zhou Chun.

But at this moment, Zhou Chun slapped his Storage Pouch and summoned a golden bell artifact to protect himself.

The silver blades clashed against the bell's golden radiance, like rain on banana leaves, shaking the bell continuously and ringing incessantly, but they couldn't truly harm Zhou Chun inside.

Just then, with a cry from the rock turtle Stone, a golden light burst forth from its body, instantly solidifying a ring-shaped golden yellow light wall on its back.
