Chapter 1072: Chapter 479: Return Home [Subscription Request]_3
Originally, the three families of the Sanjue Sect each occupied a mountain peak as the foundation of their family.
But after over a hundred years, having endured the ravages of war, the current Three Immortals Mountain, apart from the mountains, rivers, and streams that still match the memory of it held by Zhou Chun and the others, has almost completely lost any traces of the Sanjue Sect.
"Alas! In just a short span of over a hundred years, everything and everyone has changed completely!"
Gazing at the familiar yet strange landscape beneath his feet, Zhou Zhengyong, despite having a thousand words in his heart, could ultimately only express his sentiments with such a sigh.
Zhou Chun had long expected it to be so.
However, he didn’t offer any words of comfort to Zhou Zhengyong; he simply accompanied him in silence, wandering throughout the mountains, mourning the past.
It was only after Zhou Zhengyong had visited all the places he wanted to see and expressed that it was enough, did the two of them bid farewell to the Golden Core Stage Cultivator who was stationed there.
Unexpectedly, just as they were saying goodbye, the stationed Golden Core Stage Cultivator suddenly looked at Zhou Chun and said, "Actually, if Taoist Friend Zhou wishes to reclaim your family’s ancestral land, it’s not impossible."
Hearing this, Zhou Chun was visibly shaken and immediately exclaimed, "Why would Senior Lu say such a thing?"
"Isn’t it obvious? Although we’ve driven away the demon cultivators from the Demon Element Realm this time, the original powers of the Cultivation World in Fengguo have been reshuffled. Even the mightiest Corpse Demon Sect had only its top leaders and some elites escape, leaving their territories vacant. It’s impossible for the Jingyang Sect and a few others to take over all the vacated lands. New powers are bound to settle in!"
"Taoist Friend Zhou, you’ve distinguished yourself with your battle merits in this war, and the Zhou Family was once the lord of the Three Immortals Mountain. If you can find a senior with influence in the legion to speak for you, reclaiming your family’s ancestral land should not be difficult!"
The cultivator with the surname Lu smiled slightly, sharing his perspective.
Upon hearing these words, Zhou Chun quickly calmed himself down.
Indeed, what the cultivator with the surname Lu said sounded initially correct and utterly reasonable.
But the problem is, beings that even he must call ’senior’ are certainly Nascent Soul Stage True Persons.
Zhou Chun had no means to seek the help of a Nascent Soul Stage True Person for the Zhou Family, not even from Baiyue True Person, who would certainly not agree to this matter.
So, while this proposal seems feasible, in reality, it is virtually impossible to achieve.
Furthermore, Three Immortals Mountain isn’t just the Zhou Family’s ancestral land; it’s also the ancestral land of the Elixir Li Family and the Formation You Family.
If they learn that the Zhou Family intends to reclaim their ancestral land and occupy the Three Immortals Mountain, these two families might also step in.
However, for Zhou Chun, even if he doesn’t need the Spirit Land of Three Immortals Mountain, he has no desire to rebuild the Sanjue Sect with these two families.
After all, the Zhou Family now has the potential to reach the heyday status of the Sanjue Sect on its own.
These thoughts quickly passed through his mind, but Zhou Chun still respectfully thanked the cultivator with the surname Lu, "The junior understands, thank you Senior Lu for your guidance."
"No need for thanks, Taoist Friend Zhou, take care."
The cultivator with the surname Lu, smiling, watched as Zhou Chun and his companion left.
After leaving Three Immortals Mountain, Zhou Zhengyong suddenly suggested that they visit the nearby mortal relatives of the Zhou Family.
Zhou Chun hesitated for a moment but agreed to it.
However, due to the demon cultivators’ indiscriminate slaughter for their practice within Fengguo, the number of mortals in these regions ruled by demon cultivators is a fraction of what it once was.
The cities and villages where those Zhou Family mortals lived have now become ruins, void of any survivors.
Seeing this, Zhou Zhengyong couldn’t help but shake his head and sigh, "These demon cultivators are utterly devoid of conscience; I can’t imagine how the mortals in the Demon Element Realm manage to survive!"
Zhou Chun actually knew a bit about this.
As far as he knew, mortals in the Demon Element Realm were incapable of forming countries. They existed in the form of city-states and tribes, and frequently engaged in wars and slaughter with one another.
The bodies and souls of those who died on the battlefield were utilized by demon cultivators who accompanied the army for their practices.
Most of the time, this is how demon cultivators obtained their materials.
Only in certain special circumstances, when a large-scale blood sacrifice is needed, do the demon cultivator powers directly decimate cities.
From this perspective, demon cultivators are clearly evil but not stupid; they know not to drain the pond to catch the fish.
Unfortunately, in the Tianling Region, these demon cultivators chose to exhaust the resources, presumably because they never intended to truly occupy the land in the first place!
"Since no one can be found, let’s just leave it be."
Zhou Chun looked down at the ruins beneath his feet and tried to console Zhou Zhengyong.
He was in a hurry to go back and discuss related matters with Zhou Mingde, and he did not want to waste time on trivial matters any longer.
However, just as he persuaded Zhou Zhengyong and the two prepared to return to the Zhou Family, suddenly, the sound of a battle roared from a mountain not far away.
Upon seeing this, Zhou Zhengyong immediately suggested, "Let’s go check it out. Maybe there are some of our Zhou Family mortals there."
"Then let’s go take a look."
Zhou Chun nodded and immediately flew with Zhou Zhengyong towards the site of the battle.
With his strong Divine Sense, Zhou Chun was able to discern the situation on the battlefield from afar.
It turned out that a small squadron from the Heavenly Spirit Legion was surrounding and attacking several demon cultivators, and indeed there was a mortal settlement nearby.
Upon witnessing this situation, Zhou Chun immediately made a move from afar, capturing those few demon cultivators and handed them over to the cultivators besieging them.
Then, amidst their heartfelt thanks, he sent them all on their way.
