Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World

Chapter 462: Chapter 254: Protected by Destiny, Receiving the Golden Core Clan_2

After all, similar incidents in the Black Dragon Sea Region are simply abundant and have long been commonplace.

”Since that’s the case, let’s have a pleasant cooperation.”

Jiang Fan didn’t bother with pleasantries, speaking directly.

Of course, the most important thing is that the Fortune-Telling Talisman did not detect any danger.

This means that this person’s words are true, without any traps.

With the power of the Fortune-Telling Talisman, he can also predict the truth of the opponent’s words.

”Thank you, senior.”

The Zhu Family elders exchanged glances and were all delighted, showing a look of relief.

It was as if a stone weighing on them had finally fallen off.

No one could imagine the panic of these people when the Zhu Family’s Golden Core Ancestor fell.

It was as if the sky was falling.

Fortunately, they have now found a new savior.

...

Another day passed.

Led by the Zhu Family cultivators, Jiang Fan followed them to Zhu Family Island.

Undoubtedly, this island is large, at least fifty thousand square kilometers.

A million people live on the island.

Of course, these are just Zhu Family’s elites; most of the personnel actually reside on other Tier Two islands.

Only core members can live on Zhu Family Island.

As soon as he arrived on the island, Jiang Fan sensed the island’s rich Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, even better than Red Whale Island, worthy of the Tier Three Top-Grade Spirit Vein.

It’s estimated that even the main spirit vein of the Great Sun Sword Sect is no better than this.

The Zhu Family elder wasn’t lying.

”A nice place.”

Jiang Fan felt quite satisfied.

He also sensed that Zhu Family Island is protected by a Tier Three Array, the Four Symbols Black Tortoise Array.

It’s estimated that the Zhu Family spent a thousand years to set this up, such a Tier Three Array is no simple matter.

If coupled with a few Golden Core Zhenren, not any casual Golden Core Zhenren could break the island’s defense.

One can only say, worthy of a thousand-year Golden Core Clan.

Having just arrived here, he could control such a large Golden Core influence, it truly is destiny.

Generally, for a Golden Core Zhenren to establish such a large influence, the time might not be short at all.

And it’s not even certain how many suitable people can be found.

”Ancestor Zhu Jun.”

”From now on, this will be the ancestor’s residence.”

The Zhu Family’s Great Elder Zhu Bin said respectfully, suggesting that Zhu Jun would be Jiang Fan’s assumed name and identity in this sea region, backed by the Zhu Family.

The residence of the Zhu Family’s original Golden Core Ancestor was naturally handed over, becoming Jiang Fan’s dominion.

This residence is located at the center of the island.

It also occupies the source of the Tier Three Top-Grade Spirit Vein, the Spiritual Qi is astonishingly dense.

If one were to cultivate in this place, it would certainly yield twice the result with half the effort.

”Very well, you may leave.”

Jiang Fan waved his hand to dismiss the Zhu Family cultivators; he had already claimed this as his territory.

”Yes, ancestor.”

Upon hearing this, the Zhu Family cultivators also breathed a sigh of relief and left the residence in succession.

Swoosh!

After this group of people left, Jiang Fan released Su Weiwei from the Exquisite Tower and informed her about the Zhu Family matters.

”Husband, these Zhu Family cultivators might not have any good intentions.”

”The reason for choosing husband is because they have no other choice.”

”They might even intend for husband to shield them from disaster.”

Su Weiwei said worriedly.

She knows that there’s no such thing as a free lunch in this world; who knows how many traps lie within.

”Haha, I naturally know they’re not so kind-hearted.”

”We are merely mutually exploiting each other.”

”They need the protection of a Golden Core while I need a Tier Three cave mansion for cultivation.”

”Without the Zhu Family’s help, it would be difficult for us to establish a foothold in this sea region.”

”Of course, we also need to guard against their schemes.”

Jiang Fan smiled lightly.

In fact, he already has countermeasures for this, namely the Perfection Level Enchantment Talisman.

Ever since he refined the Enchantment Talisman to Perfection Level, he could condense the Seed of Enchantment.

Incorporated into another cultivator’s soul, it can make them unknowingly become his puppets and slaves.

Thus, as time passes, he could control the entire Zhu Family cultivators.

No matter what these Zhu Family cultivators think.

With complete control, no problems will occur.

”Since husband has a plan, then there’s no issue.”

Su Weiwei nodded; she also believes husband can solve these small problems.

After all, when a Golden Core cultivator goes all out, what are mere Foundation Establishment cultivators?

...

At this moment, in another place.

The nine Foundation Establishment Elders of the Zhu Family were gathered.

They were Zhu Yin, Zhu Junxiu, Zhu Xi, Zhu Shuo, Zhu Yantong, Zhu Tianing, Zhu Jianzhong, Zhu Yang, and naturally the Foundation Establishment Perfection Great Elder Zhu Bin.

In fact, as a thousand-year Golden Core family, their strength is still at its peak and hasn’t suffered much loss.

It’s just the sudden fall of the Golden Core Ancestor that caught them off guard.

No matter how many Foundation Establishment cultivators they have, without Golden Core protection, they are helpless.

They are equally subject to bullying by other Golden Core clans.

”Great Elder.”

”Why did you find an unknown Golden Core Zhenren to become our Zhu Family Ancestor?”

”Isn’t that taking a thief as a father?”

”If the person has ill intentions, then our Zhu Family is done for.”

Zhu Yin disagreed with this absurd decision, viewing it as bringing a wolf into the house.

A slight mistake, and the Zhu Family might be finished.

”Foolish.”

”If our Zhu Family has no Golden Core Zhenren, we’ll instantly be driven out of this Tier Three island.”

”Don’t you know how many Golden Core clans outside are watching us like tigers eyeing prey?”

”If they see our weakened state, they’ll immediately surge forth to tear us apart.”

”Don’t be fooled by how good our Zhu Family seems, but without Golden Core Ancestor protection, we’re just weakening.”

”Honestly, if it weren’t for us useless descendants who can’t achieve Core Formation, I wouldn’t need to find an outsider to impersonate our Zhu Family ancestor, adding another ancestor over us.”

Great Elder Zhu Bin snorted coldly.

Hearing this, the many Foundation Establishment elders were silent.

They’re not children anymore, naturally knowing that the Great Elder’s words are correct.

Previously, they also exhausted efforts to find a new Golden Core Zhenren but found no way.

Now, the appearance of this mysterious Golden Core solves their pressing crisis.

This is an emergency measure.

”Great Elder, is this outsider Golden Core cultivator reliable?”

Zhu Junxiu inquired.

He’s still worried the person may not be a dependable Golden Core Zhenren.

If the person acts without restraint towards the Zhu Family, they’d be utterly defenseless.

”Though we’ve only interacted for a day, my impression is still quite good.”

”The person is silent, yet possesses incredibly formidable power.”

”Perhaps he is an ascetic.”

”Not the type indulging in pleasures and abandoning cultivation altogether.”

”So for us, it’s already the best choice.”

Great Elder Zhu Bin smiled faintly, feeling his luck was indeed good this time, having finally encountered a reliable outsider Golden Core — it’s like heaven is aiding the Zhu Family.

”If that’s the case, then it indeed is our Zhu Family’s destiny.”

”With his help, we can stabilize Zhu Family for some time.”

”As long as Elder Zhu Han succeeds in Core Formation, then our Zhu Family can rest easy.”

The Zhu Family elders discussed.

In fact, their Zhu Family still had a Foundation Establishment elder, Zhu Han, with high hopes of achieving Core Formation. The person is only one hundred fifty years old and already a Foundation Establishment Perfection cultivator, considered a genius of the Zhu Family, the hope for the next generation.

But due to a short timeline, Core Formation hasn’t occurred yet.

However, if this Zhu Family genius succeeds in achieving Core Formation, then Zhu Family can continue for centuries.

It can be said, they entirely regarded Jiang Fan as a temporary choice, a temporary backup.

After all, to them, naturally, their own people are more trustworthy.

”No matter what, we must show utmost respect to this senior.”

”Treat him entirely as our ancestor and comply with all requests.”

”We must survive this difficult period.”

”Until Elder Zhu Han achieves Core Formation, we need him to shield us from the storm.”

Great Elder Zhu Bin said in a deep voice.

”Yes, Great Elder.”

The elders nodded in agreement.
