Clan Cultivation: Starting from Beast Taming

The message fires from the Mu Family of Biyun Mountain drifted to every corner, placing many powers in Lanzhou before an important choice.

To rescue the Mu Family or not?

How many people should be sent to the Mu Family's rescue?

These were questions that Zhou Chun, among many other cultivation family leaders, needed to seriously consider.

In the Central Peace Hall atop Pagoda Peak, Zhou Chun faced the newly emerged Supreme Elder Zhou Mingde and the three Family Elders.

Zhou Chun did not hold back and was the first to express his opinion, "Junior believes firmly that we must save the Mu Family, and not just save them, but do it impressively so that everyone knows the Zhou Family came to the rescue!"

"Right now, there are a few Purple Mansion Cultivators from the Green Lotus Temple in Hongya Marketplace, and given the relationship between the Mu Family and the Green Lotus Temple, coupled with the enemy being from the Dragon Transformation Sect, they cannot possibly stand by and do nothing."

"So if we, the Zhou Family, go to rescue them, we must get to the Mu Family before they do. That way, whether the Mu Family can be saved or not, our reputation and reliability among allies will be spread and trusted more!"

His speech was coherent and logical, and he articulated the benefits of the rescue effort well.

But not long after he finished speaking, Supreme Elder Zhou Mingde looked at him and said, "Have you considered the dangers of this rescue mission? What if this is a feint by the Dragon Transformation Sect, using the Mu Family as bait to lure and kill the cultivators coming to their aid? If we rush to save them, wouldn't we be falling right into their trap?"

Zhou Chun, upon hearing this, immediately nodded and responded, "Junior has indeed considered this."

He then said in a heavy tone, "But junior believes, the likelihood of this scenario should be small, because to achieve this, the Dragon Transformation Sect must have several Purple Mansion Cultivators participating in the plot. Otherwise, just one Purple Mansion Cultivator leading the rescue will foil their strategy of a feint."

"But what if they really do have several Purple Mansion Cultivators?"

Zhou Mingde pressed on with his questions.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chun respectfully said, "If it's Supreme Elder leading the rescue, even if the Dragon Transformation Sect truly has several Purple Mansion Cultivators, I believe you would be able to retreat safely!"

"You do think highly of me."

Zhou Mingde responded indifferently, and it wasn't clear whether he meant it as a compliment or not.

The other Family Elders of the Zhou Family listened to their exchange, and all exchanged glances, not daring to utter a word.

But they all admired Zhou Chun's courage to speak to Zhou Mingde, the Supreme Elder, with such frankness, given his Qi Refinement Realm cultivation level.

And in the hall, after Zhou Mingde spoke, silence fell again, and no one spoke further.

After an unknown period of silence, Zhou Mingde suddenly said, "All right, then I shall personally make a trip to Biyun Mountain and see for myself!"

Upon these words, Zhou Chun was the first to breathe a sigh of relief.

It was, without doubt, the best outcome.

"Supreme Elder is wise,"

he said respectfully, then along with several Zhou Family Elders, saw Zhou Mingde off as he rode away on the Fire Divine Jackal.

Meanwhile, as the Blood Lotus Pattern exploded in the skies over Biyun Mountain, initiating an uproar, the cultivators of the Dragon Transformation Sect began their fierce assault on the Mu Family's Mountain Protection Array.

"Everyone, put your backs into it, we must break through the formation as quickly as possible!"

The Black Dragon Protector of the Dragon Transformation Sect, holding the Patterned Dragon Banner, kept waving the flag, summoning water dragons that surged towards the Mu Family's mountain gate.

He knew in his heart the urgency of the situation; the kind of signal fire guided by numerous mortals could not possibly be extinguished in time.

So instead of dispersing troops to put out the signal fire now, it was better to break through the formation as swiftly as possible.

As long as the formation was broken before the reinforcements arrived, the Mu Family, lacking Purple Mansion Phase Cultivators, would be at his mercy!

However, the Clan Leader of the Mu Family, Mu Yunshan, also knew this was the most dangerous moment in the family's history, so he spared no effort in defending against the invasion and poured the family's entire foundation into the fight.

A variety of Spells, conjured from talismans triggered by the Mu Family Cultivators' hands, hurtled towards the attacking Dragon Transformation Sect Cultivators outside.

As a cultivation family without a Purple Mansion Cultivator at the helm, the Mu Family was acutely aware of their shortcomings.

They also considered how to respond when attacked by Purple Mansion Phase Cultivators.

Therefore, their Mountain Protection Array was set up by an Array Master from the Green Lotus Temple at a great cost. It could concentrate the strength of many family members to enhance the power of the array, capable of withstanding assaults from Purple Mansion Phase Cultivators.

At the same time, they always had the habit of stockpiling a large number of talismans.

So now, in a crisis of extermination, Mu Yunshan did not hesitate to take out all the family's most valuable assets.

He and several Foundation Establishment Elders were seen stubbornly managing the Formation to resist the outer attacking cultivators while sending out second-order talismans, harassing those Missionary Envoys and preventing them from focusing on attacking the Mountain Protection Array.

"Our very existence hangs in the balance at this moment, everyone must not be stingy in the slightest; otherwise, once the array breaks, everything will fall into the enemy's hands!"

"We must hold on, reinforcements will soon arrive; the elders from Green Lotus Temple are currently in Hongya Marketplace, they will not stand by and watch the Mu Family fall!"

Above Biyun Mountain, Mu Yunshan's voice boomed, uplifting the spirits of the Mu Family members and encouraging every Mu Family Cultivator to cast every single talisman at hand.

He understood all too well that the Mu Family likely faced a grim end today; all he wished for now was to hold out as long as possible before the array's collapse, inflicting as much damage on the enemy as they could.
