Chapter 1352: Chapter 625: Gathering of Ancient Cultivators, the Enigmatic Sect Leader
Apparently, in the end Tang Zirui agreed to City Lord Zhang Hui’s request.
After all, for him, it was merely a small effort that could bring certain benefits and also gain the other’s friendship. It was, indeed, a win-win situation, with all advantages and no harm.
He had no reason to refuse.
The same went for Zhang Hui; receiving help from this Void Refining predecessor saved his trump card, and also helped him gain an excellent evaluation.
All he had to give in return were some treasures.
Compared to his gains, it was nothing significant, nothing worth mentioning.
Their collaboration was indeed a match made in heaven.
The subsequent actions were also very smooth.
With Tang Zirui’s assistance, Julu City logically eliminated the group of Demon Beasts occupying the mountains, thus removing a considerable threat for Julu City in advance.
“Predecessor, please do not extinguish these Demon Beasts.”
“Leave the Low-Tier Demon Beasts instead; let them stay here to recuperate and thrive.”
City Lord Zhang Hui spoke up.
When Tang Zirui wanted to pursue his victory after eliminating the High-Tier Demon Beasts, he was stopped by Zhang Hui.
He stated the need to keep these Low-Tier Demon Beasts, insisting against an extinction operation.
This option wasn’t necessarily bad for Julu City.
“Oh, why is that?”
Tang Zirui asked curiously.
“If you kill them all, this area will be devoid of Demon Beasts.”
“For ordinary cultivators, it’s not beneficial.”
“These Demon Beasts are full of treasures.”
“Their flesh and blood can be refined into Elixirs, their scales can become Magical Artifacts, even their hides can be turned into talisman paper; they are all cultivation resources for us.”
“If completely exterminated, it would mean losing a significant amount of cultivation resources, leading to enormous financial loss.”
“Therefore, no matter where on the Southern Continent, the sect forbids the slaughter of Low-Tier Demon Beasts.”
City Lord Zhang Hui explained.
He stated that it was the sect’s sustainable plan, as well as for breeding Demon Beasts.
After all, a large number of cultivators still need to consume Demon Beast flesh and blood.
Of course, the Primordial Talisman Sect breeds Demon Beasts without intelligence; if they develop intelligence, they become Spirit Beasts and are treated as part of the sect.
“Breeding Demon Beasts, huh? That’s exactly what the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect does.”
Tang Zirui raised an eyebrow.
He felt that now the Primordial Talisman Sect was not merely a pure Talisman Dao sect; besides Talisman Dao, it seemed to incorporate many Ancient Sect teachings, becoming a comprehensive sect.
It was clearly a change of the times.
With the destruction of many Ancient Era teachings, numerous ancient inheritances were obtained by the Primordial Talisman Sect, then passed down by different cultivators, thus forming the present Primordial Talisman Sect.
He increasingly felt that the current Primordial Talisman Sect seemed like a super power inheriting teachings from various Ancient Sects, entirely different from the Ancient Era’s Primordial Talisman Sect.
This made him feel somewhat familiar, yet somewhat strange.
“Haha, that’s indeed from the Ancient Sect, the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect’s teachings.”
“In a way, we Primordial Talisman Sect can be considered the Beast Taming Sect as well.”
“Many sect cultivators are skilled at taming Spirit Beasts, mastering Spirit Beasts.”
“Even Lord Sect Master has tamed numerous Void Refining Level Spirit Beasts.”
City Lord Zhang Hui chuckled, feeling quite proud as he spoke.
Even himself has contracted a Divinity Transformation Level Spirit Beast, which became his good partner.
From a certain perspective, it’s more intimate than his Dao Companion.
After all, a contracted Spirit Beast is one of the biggest trump cards on oneself, akin to a life-and-death companion.
“I see.”
Tang Zirui nodded.
He grew more curious about the current era’s Primordial Talisman Sect.
As time passed, he initially thought he understood the sect, but realized this was just the tip of the iceberg.
“By the way, now that this matter is over, predecessor has also become our sect’s Honored Guest Elder.”
“Are you interested in meeting other Ancient Cultivators?”
“Perhaps during the Ancient Era you even knew each other?”
“After all, recently, Ancient Cultivators seem to have organized a small gathering.”
City Lord Zhang Hui said.
“A gathering of Ancient Cultivators, huh? I’m certainly interested.”
Tang Zirui immediately replied.
He too wanted to know who else managed to survive from the Ancient Era.
Perhaps he might even find some old companions.
……
Several days later.
Southern Continent, a certain city, a certain mansion.
Here gathered numerous Ancient Cultivators.
They were all revived from the Ancient Cave Mansion in recent times, becoming Honored Guest Elders of the Primordial Talisman Sect.
As cultivators from the Ancient Era, naturally they wanted to exchange information with each other.
Thus, every now and then, they would hold a gathering.
This time, Tang Zirui also participated in the gathering.
“Fellow Daoist Tang, I didn’t expect you to be from the Ancient Era.”
“May I know which sect you belong to?”
A green-robed Taoist warmly welcomed Tang Zirui, his eyes glinting with curiosity about Tang Zirui’s origins.
“Oh, Fellow Daoist Huang, I was merely a Loose Cultivator from the Ancient Era.”
“Just lucky to have escaped the great calamity and survived until today.”
