Chapter 151: 108: Octagonal Aquatic Deer, Thunder King Baibai [Subscribe]
This place is also a treasure hunting spot for many Loose Cultivators in Lanzhou, where a variety of special Spiritual Medicines that are difficult to find elsewhere are nurtured.
On this day, under the leadership of the Zhou Family\'s fourth Elder, Zhou Jiarui, Zhou Chun, Zhou Jiacheng, Zhou Jiafei, Zhou Zhengjing, Zhou Zhengtao, and other Zhou Family Cultivators, a total of more than eight, rode on Large-Horned Green Sheep to a lakeside grassland in the northwest part of the Misty Swamp.
They made this grand entrance here only because of a discovery Zhou Jiacheng made in the Misty Swamp.
Since Zhou Jiacheng had failed his Foundation Establishment attempt after taking a Foundation Establishment Pill, he felt he had disgraced his family and couldn\'t face the other Clan Members.
Therefore, he took on the task of searching for rare birds and mystical creatures for the Zhou Family, and had been adventuring for a long time in mountains and lakes inhabited by Demon Beasts.
Half a month ago, he and two Loose Cultivators ventured into the Misty Swamp, only to discover a rare Demon Beast, the Octagonal Aquatic Deer, on a small island deep in the Misty Swamp, and what\'s more, an entire herd of them.
The Octagonal Aquatic Deer is an amphibious low-level Demon Beast whose large body is bigger than the common water buffalo, with two antlers on its head, each branching into four, capable of traversing mountains and seas.
In terms of being used as Mount Beasts, Octagonal Aquatic Deers are even more suitable for Cultivators than Ink Scale Steeds.
So, upon discovering the herd, Zhou Jiacheng quickly found an excuse to end the exploration plan and swiftly returned to the Zhou Family to report the matter.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Daoyi took it very seriously and quickly discussed with several Elders to formulate a capture plan.
Thus, Zhou Chun and the others appeared outside the Misty Swamp.
At this moment, by the verdant waters of the swamp, the group from the Zhou Family dismounted from the backs of the Large-Horned Green Sheep and started surveying the waters ahead.
They saw that the swamp stretched beyond sight, with many reeds and other aquatic plants growing within, and even some tall trees in the distance, indicating the presence of islands.
Further away, the air was white with fog that shrouded everything.
Aside from Zhou Jiacheng, this was the first visit to this place for everyone else.
Therefore, while the others were observing the swamp ahead, Zhou Jiacheng explained, "Thick fog often arises within the Misty Swamp. The island where the Octagonal Aquatic Deers are located is deep within the swamp. Normally, Loose Cultivators venture here by taking small boats."
"Boat travel is too slow, and it makes a big target."
Zhou Jiarui shook his head and outright rejected the plan of advancing by boat.
Then, he turned his gaze to Zhou Chun and said, "Zhengchun, your Silver Lightning Python should be able to swim in water, right? Could it carry us forward?"
"We can try it."
Zhou Chun pondered briefly, then nodded slightly, agreeing to give it a try.
The original Silver Lightning Python might not have been that good in water.
But now that the Flood Dragon Bloodline had been initially enhanced, its swimming abilities should have improved.
Right then, he reached out, slapped his Storage Pouch at his waist, and released the Silver Lightning Python.
When the Silver Lighting Python, measuring over five zhang long and covered with Dragon Scales, appeared on the grass before Zhou Chun, the other Zhou Family Cultivators present couldn\'t help but show admiration in their eyes, revealing looks of envy.
The Silver Lightning Python, a mid-level Demon Beast, was a rare thunder-type Demon Beast, and even possessed a Flood Dragon Bloodline.
Such a level of Spirit Pet was unmatched in the Zhou Family, with the exception of the Supreme Elder\'s Fire Divine Jackal and the Clan Leader\'s Sky Azure Cloud Python.
Even the third Elder Zhou Daoquan\'s two second-stage Spirit Pets were not quite on par with it.
"Lucky number thirteen, I heard that the Silver Lightning Python was originally a gift from the Mu Family to you. I bet they would be green with envy if they knew about this now!" Zhou Zhengtao said with a face full of envy, his words dripping with sourness.
How could he not be envious?
In the past, both of them had participated in the joint Cultivation competition held by the five major Cultivation families, advancing to the top ten in the youth group together, and had been rewarded by their families.
Back then, there seemed to be no significant difference between Zhou Chun and him, just that Zhou Chun was a level lower in cultivation and a bit younger.
But since then, while he himself had made considerable progress and steadily improved his Cultivation Level,
the comparison with Zhou Chun was like heaven and earth.

Now, whenever Zhou Family Cultivators talked about Zhou Chun, who wouldn\'t praise, who wouldn\'t admire?
Even the many "Zhou" generation Elders also lavishly praised this junior, showing great admiration.
This was a level of honor not even the once-renowned genius Cultivator of the Zhou Family, Zhou Zhengkang, had received.
If one were to say who among their "Zheng" generation had the most hope of successfully completing Foundation Establishment, then it would undoubtedly be none other than Zhou Chun.
As for him, Zhou Zhengtao, he was merely seen as a more talented and capable junior in the eyes of the elders, far from worthy of comparison with Zhou Chun.
And in the face of Zhou Zhengtao\'s sour words, Zhou Chun simply flicked his eyelid and said indifferently, "Brother Eight overstates, I am unworthy of such praise."
He then stopped paying attention to the other and directly instructed the Silver Lightning Python to swim towards the waters ahead.
A person without envy is mediocre.
Ever since Zhou Chun was appointed as the Clan Leader\'s scribe by Zhou Daoyi, he knew he would certainly encounter jealousy from some of his peers and even some Elders.
So, over these years, he had been diligently demonstrating himself, showcasing his strength and ability in all areas, seeking the recognition and approval of the many Elders and seniors in the family.
Now, he could indeed say that great momentum had been established, having earned the recognition and support of many Elders and seniors, his foundation firmly set.
