Clan Cultivation: Starting from Beast Taming

Over the past decade or so, the changes within the Zhou Family were naturally tremendous.

Especially during this period, the Zhou Family first harvested thirty-two "Foundation Establishment Fruits" and then obtained twenty-five "Foundation Establishment Pills."

Zhou Mingde and Zhou Daoyi were both people with great resolution.

Having previously heard of the possibility of a Demon Element Realm invasion into the Tianling Region, they covertly arranged for the cultivators who had exchanged for the "Foundation Establishment Pills" to establish their foundations in the Wasteland Territory and secretly cultivate there.

Thus, on the surface, the Zhou Family had only three additional cultivators who had succeeded in Foundation Establishment over the past twelve years, but in fact, there were as many as seven new Foundation Establishment cultivators!

These seven people were Zhou Xinyi, Zhou Xinheng, Zhou Xintong, Zhou Xinchen, Zhou Sizhen, Zhou Siyu, and Zhou Simiao.

As a result, the Zhou Family had a total of seventeen Family Cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage just by count of its own clan members!

And in the Wasteland Territory, there was also a devoted servant of the Zhou Family, Liu Heng, who had successfully established his foundation by exchanging for a "Foundation Establishment Fruit."

Therefore, if Lin Wan'er, Xu Fu, and Liu Heng were also included, the number of Foundation Establishment Cultivators that the Zhou Family could command amounted to twenty!

If you also count Zhou Xinhe and Zhou Xinjian, who had entered Green Lotus Temple, that would be twenty-two people.

In addition, the Zhou Family now had one more Mid Foundation Establishment Cultivator from a maternal family, that is, Zhang Liang, whom Zhou Chun had left in the Zhou Family.

This person somehow won the favor of Zhou Xindie, a Foundation Establishment female cultivator of the Zhou Family, and became dao companions with him, causing him to stay permanently in the Zhou Family.

Normally, this matter would have required the Clan Leader's approval, but since Zhou Chun was in the Great Zhou Kingdom at that time, Zhou Mingde took the initiative to approve it.

Meanwhile, the older generation of Zhou Family Cultivators have also made progress in their cultivation levels.

Zhou Daoyi broke through to the Middle Stage of Purple Mansion two years ago, Zhou Jiarui's cultivation reached the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment, and the cultivation of Zhou Zhengyong, Zhou Xinyan, Zhou Xinlan, and others all broke through to the Mid Foundation Establishment stage.

But the most impressive was Xu Fu, who, with his Superior Spiritual Root Talent, had already reached the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment.

Furthermore, four years ago, the Zhou Family welcomed another member with Superior-Grade Spiritual Root Talent in both Metal and Water attributes, a girl named Zhou Yuanyuan from the "Yuan" generation of cultivators.

And now, the number of registered cultivators in the Zhou Family has reached four hundred and thirteen, with an additional sixty-nine Maternal Family Cultivators!

In addition, there are as many as seventy-eight devoted servant cultivators in the Wasteland Territory!

This doesn't even take into account the Zhou Family's powerful Demon Beast Spirit Pets.

And all these data could only be seen by the very core members of the Zhou Family; even some Elders at the Foundation Establishment stage were unaware of it.

Without a doubt, this was a force that could shock many people if revealed.

If the Zhou Family were to capitalize on the reputation of Lin Hongyu now, with such a force, a Golden Core noble house could be declared established in an instant!

"So, without realizing it, the Zhou Family has developed to this extent?"

Zhou Chun, looking at the various family data, murmured in a trance, his mood instantly improved a lot.

Looking back, when they first settled in Jiufeng Ridge, the entire clan had less than a hundred people. Apart from Zhou Mingde, who was presentable with his Initial Stage Purple Mansion cultivation, there were only four Foundation Establishment cultivators in the whole clan.

Today, in just over a hundred years, from top to bottom, the number of cultivators and the number of cultivators at each stage in the Zhou Family have multiplied several times, not inferior at all to the splendor before the clan's separation.

This kind of change is probably something that not only Zhou Mingde and Zhou Daoyi hadn't dared to dream of when they separated, but even Zhou Chun himself hadn't dared to think of initially.

But upon reflection, all of this seemed to proceed quite naturally.

Series after series of fortuitous encounters, coupled with the united efforts of the entire clan, after more than a hundred years of nurturing and refinement, such plentiful achievements were not surprising.

However, this made the upcoming war between the two major Cultivation Worlds something that the Zhou Family needed to treat even more cautiously.

They could not allow this war to ruin the Zhou Family, which had been difficultly revitalized.

Just like the Wang Family from Hongyao Valley, everything was stable at first, but due to a war with the Dragon Transformation Sect, the family suffered a severe blow, and now it has fallen out of the rank of significant Cultivation families. It now relies solely on past fortune and relationships to maintain the status of its family.

There had been many such examples that Zhou Chun had seen over the past hundred years.

In the following half-month, Zhou Chun first sent the Golden Armor Turtle Bearer Stone and the Wood Charm back to Tuyun Ridge to cultivate, then he met with the new Foundation Establishment Family Cultivators one by one, offering encouragement and rewards.

He then became extremely busy, receiving visits from important members of various allied families who had heard the news.

After being busy for nearly two months, he finally had time to handle some personal affairs.

First of course, was a trip to the Su Family in Jiangzhou to visit his dao companion Su Yuzhen and by the way to see the Ancestor of Su Family Su Yunniang, who had succeeded in Core Formation, to deliver an adequately generous congratulatory gift.

This round of family visits, both the Ancestor of Su Family and Su Yunniang, were somewhat surprised by Zhou Chun's rapid breakthrough to the Middle Stage of Purple Mansion.

And naturally, a mother-in-law admiring her son-in-law, she became more and more satisfied as she looked.

After all, the higher Zhou Chun's cultivation, the less likely he would hold back Su Yuzhen.

But neither of them expected Zhou Chun to succeed in Core Formation.

After all, whether from the standpoint of Spirit Root Aptitude or family heritage, Zhou Chun possessed no advantages in the aspect of forming a core.
