Clan Cultivation: Starting from Beast Taming

Zhou Chun hesitated, unable to make up his mind.

Although he had changed his appearance, he had previously signed a Spirit Pact with that Master Luo, who would surely be familiar with his Mana aura.

If he were to entrust the Master with Alchemy again, it would be difficult to keep his identity hidden.

After such hesitation, Zhou Chun still couldn't make a decision and decided to just wait and see.

Soon, Zhou Chun changed his target and arrived at a fairly well-known location within Tianyuan Immortal City, inside the "Tianyuan Hall."

This "Tianyuan Hall" is a place where most Loose Cultivators in Tianyuan Immortal City would visit, as it is the place where various task assignments are published.

From the major sects and families of the Great Zhou Kingdom down to ordinary Loose Cultivators, anyone can publish tasks at the "Tianyuan Hall" to hire other Cultivators to work for them.

Of course, to be able to publish tasks in the "Tianyuan Hall," the reward for the task cannot be low, the minimum starting at a thousand Spirit Coins.

As a result, most of the Cultivators who come to the "Tianyuan Hall" to accept tasks are Foundation Establishment cultivators and Purple Mansion Cultivators.

Zhou Chun came to the "Tianyuan Hall" not to publish tasks, but to see if there were any suitable tasks for himself.

He had heard that occasionally there would be tasks with Elixirs that could refine Mana and increase Cultivation Level as a reward, indicating that the difficulty of completing the tasks would be very high.

However, now that he had Baibai and Wood Charm, two Third Order Spirit Pets, he indeed had the ability to complete difficult tasks that ordinary people couldn't.

He walked into the "Tianyuan Hall" and saw a giant white jade stele that stood three zhang high and one zhang wide. The stele would rotate to display various tasks, each thoughtfully labeled with a number.

If someone took an interest in a task, they could go to the counters within the hall to accept the task assignment.

Most tasks, once accepted by someone, would no longer be displayed on the white jade stele, until the task was completed or if no one finished it within the time limit, at which point it would be put back up on the stele.

At this moment, there were over a hundred people inside the hall observing the tasks on the white jade stele, most of which were Foundation Establishment cultivators and also a few Purple Mansion Cultivators.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun also silently went to the side to observe the tasks on the white jade stele.

"Taoist friend seems quite unfamiliar—could it be your first time here?"

As Zhou Chun was silently observing the various tasks on the white jade stele, a gentle voice suddenly reached his ears.

He turned to look and saw a black-clothed Taoist with a slightly weathered face and a goatee, smiling and nodding at him.

This black-clothed Taoist was a small realm higher in Cultivation Level than him, being at the Middle Stage of the Purple Mansion.

Following the principle of "don't hit a person who comes with a smile," Zhou Chun still replied with a bow, "How could Taoist friend tell that it's Zhang's first time here?"

"Hehehe, just so Taoist friend knows, generally, us Purple Mansion Cultivators who regularly come to the 'Tianyuan Hall' for assignments do not personally come here to select tasks like Taoist friend. Instead, a dedicated person will transcribe tasks suitable for us and provide them for our review; we just need to come here when it's time to receive the assignment."

"The fact that Taoist friend was just carefully observing those tasks on the stele indicates that you are uninformed of these practices, therefore, you must be a newcomer here!"

The black-clothed Taoist stroked his beard, smiling as he revealed the underlying reasons.

"I see. Zhang has learned something new."

A look of realization flashed in Zhou Chun's eyes as he nodded in understanding.

But he did not continue the conversation.

This caused the black-clothed Taoist's smile to stiffen slightly, and then he had to take the initiative to speak again, "To be honest with Taoist friend, the reason I approached you was not out of malice, but because I have a task that I'm unable to complete alone and was hoping to find help in you."

However, as soon as Zhou Chun heard this, he immediately shook his head and refused, "Sorry, Zhang just came to broaden his horizons today and has no intention of accepting any tasks. Taoist friend should find someone more capable."

Such a straightforward reply caused the black-clothed Taoist to freeze for a moment, and his smile faded away.

Then he looked deeply at Zhou Chun, gave a slight nod, and said, "I understand. Since Taoist Friend Zhang is not interested, I will not insist. Excuse my intrusion."

With that, he stepped back.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun did not continue to watch him but instead turned his attention back to the tasks on the three stele.

At that moment, as the tasks on the stele cycled through, one in particular caught Zhou Chun's attention.

"Recruiting three Purple Mansion Phase Cultivators for a protective escort mission to the Muli Lake area in the Doran Prairie. The reward is one 'Origin Increase Pill.' This task is an escort mission, with the reward being distributed personally by the employer upon completion. The number of applicants is not restricted; the employer will select the final three participants."

Zhou Chun couldn't help but be a little intrigued by the information on this task.

He was curious about the Alien Race Region of Doran Prairie, especially about meeting the rumored Multi-Winged Clan of the Alien Race.

This escort task required transporting a person to a certain location on the Doran Prairie, suggesting that the employer was quite knowledgeable about the prairie.

Thinking this, he considered accepting the task to travel to the Doran Prairie for a visit and incidentally get the "Origin Increase Pill" that could refine his Mana and increase his Cultivation Level.
