A conversation between master and disciple

"Han Zhenyuan is no simpleton!"

After coming out of Han's house, Su Bai felt a little emotional.

Although the Han Family is a small Lineage, it is one of the most orthodox Initial Lineage in the hundreds of years since the establishment of the Heavenly Star Alliance.

The Han Family's Old Ancestor was also an outstanding Golden Core Stage Combat Cultivator, which is why the Han Family Lineage, despite its small size, was able to maintain its influence within the Heavenly Star Alliance.

As long as the Old Ancestor Heavenly Star is alive, the hundred or so cultivation Lineage, regardless of size, that were Initial established by the Heavenly Star Alliance will not be subject to open persecution.

"There's been a lot going on lately: the Han Family, the Thunderous Beast is about to mature, the [Profound Sky Breakthrough Pill]... I should probably consult with Master about this."

Su Bai darted away.

A few days later.

The Pill Pavilion Secret Realm.

Su Bai and his Master, Master True Man He, sat facing each other on either side of the stone table.

"Master, I have some questions lately, and I have come to ask you for some advice today." Su Bai poured a cup of Spirit Tea for True Man He.

After giving advance notice, True Man He specially set aside time to meet with his Disciple.

"Go ahead and speak. Today happens to be a day off, so I have some free time to chat with you," True Man He said slowly.

True Man He and the two Vice Pavilion Master are dedicated to researching Spirit Pills for breaking through to the Golden Core realm. As their progress increases, they become increasingly busy, and even the time they have to meet is becoming increasingly scarce.

Su Bai considered it for a moment, then started by talking about the Han Family, but omitted most of the details.

True Man He was a Old Fox. Although Su Bai only hinted at it, Master He immediately understood the main direction of Su Bai's inquiry into the Han Family.

He smiled faintly and said, "The reason why the Heavenly Star Alliance was able to establish itself in the Demon Star Sea is largely due to the existence of the Heavenly Star Alliance Old Ancestor Heavenly Star, which allowed the original Alliance Pact to be maintained."

"Just like the Feng Family now, although the Feng Family Ancestor has passed away and some benefits have been lost, their status as one of the Four Great Clans will not fall so quickly."

"Similarly, as long as Old Ancestor Heavenly Star doesn't perish, the Han Family won't face any major problems."

"The changes in the Han Family were actually first noticed by our Star Luo Pill Pavilion."

"Around a hundred years ago, the Han Family began to significantly increase their purchases of Spirit Pills from the Star Luo Pill Pavilion, and in recent years they have reached their peak."

"In terms of purchasing low-grade Spirit Pills alone, the Han Family ranks first among all the forces in the Heavenly Star Alliance."

Hearing this, Su Bai was slightly taken aback, but upon reflection, it made perfect sense.

Given Star Luo Pill Pavilion's control over the Alchemy Street, analyzing this data is not difficult.

"However, the Han Family's model of family and state has now been imitated by other Lineage in the Heavenly Star Alliance. The habitable land near the Heavenly Star Alliance has been almost completely divided up, making it difficult for the Han Family to further expand its territory in the Han Kingdom."

"Even with Han Zhenyuan's Heavenly Spirit Root, transitioning into a top-tier Lineage is not so simple."

"Consider the probability of Qi Refining Cultivator becoming Foundation Establishment Cultivator, and the resource consumption required for Foundation Establishment Cultivator to advance to the Golden Core stage. These resource consumptions are beyond what the Han Family can currently afford."

"Is Han Zhenyuan trying to win you over? The Han Family is indeed short of resources Pill Formula right now... You might as well offer them some conveniences, but don't overstep your bounds. To put it another way, whoever is in charge of the Heavenly Star Alliance in the future won't have much of an impact on our Star Luo Pill Pavilion, but if we get too involved, things might change."

"I've learned a lot, Master." Su Bai nodded in agreement after hearing this, and gained a clearer understanding of the Han Family's background.

After a moment's thought, Su Bai the subject. "Master, a few days ago, under your guidance, I actually obtained a Pill Formula a Minor Breakthrough Pill from the Ying Family."

"However, the main Pill Formula in this Minor Breakthrough Pill formula, the Mysterious Profound Dome Bamboo, is now extremely rare in the world..."

True Man He nodded slightly after hearing this. "To be able to obtain the Pill Formula from a girl from the Ying Family, you're quite capable, lad."

After a pause, True Man He said, "The Profound Dome Bamboo is indeed nearly extinct. It is Spirit Medicine Ingredients needed in many old Pill Formula. The last time I saw one in person was more than twenty years ago."

"It is a native spiritual item of the Gaosong Spirit Plain, which is controlled by the Heavenly Star Alliance. It is extremely difficult to find, at least in the Demon Star Sea. We need to find another way."

Su Bai spoke up, "Master, I have raised a Thunderous Beast. I wonder if it can be used to find the Profound Dome Bamboo?"

Upon hearing this, True Man He nodded slightly. "If the beast Ting'an can comprehend the Treasure-Seeking Divine Ability, it is indeed possible for it to find the Profound Dome Bamboo for you."

"However, the Thunderous Beast's Divine Ability -hunting range is limited. I suggest you leave the Demon Star Sea Cultivation World and go to another Cultivation World before letting the Thunderous Beast use its Divine Ability."

"If you could think of using the Thunder Wolf to find the Profound Dome Bamboo, why wouldn't others have thought of it?"

"The Profound Dome Bamboo in the Demon Star Sea has been completely searched out. We should be able to find some elsewhere in the Cultivation World where traces of Profound Dome Bamboo can be found."

Upon hearing this, Su Bai asked, "Does Master know of any other Cultivation World besides the Demon Star Sea Cultivation World where the Profound Dome Bamboo can be found?"

"They exist in the cultivation worlds of the Southern Sea Cultivation World and Hongyun Cultivation World. As for those further away, you'll have to inquire about them yourself," said True Man He.

Su Bai pondered for a moment, wondering if the Profound Dome Bamboo existed in the Qingzhou Cultivation World. If it did, he could make a trip back there.

"Master, is there any way to save the life of the Thunderous Beast that used its Treasure-Seeking Divine Ability?" Su Bai asked again.

True Man He shook his head. "Treasures of heaven and earth, though possessing extraordinary abilities, always come with a corresponding price. The Thunderous Beast will undoubtedly die after using its Treasure-Seeking Divine Ability."

"But for Ting'an, this is the meaning of its existence in this world; it even wants to use its Treasure-Seeking Divine Ability more than you do."

Su Bai nodded slightly. "I see..."

Return from the Pill Spirit Secret Realm to the Profound Pill Market.

Su Bai reaped considerable benefits; this must be the advantage of having a Master.

In the end, Su Bai decided to first travel to the Southern Sea Cultivation World to search for the existence of the Profound Dome Bamboo.

Because within Heavenly Star City, there is Teleportation Array that leads directly to the Southern Sea Cultivation World, but there is no Teleportation Array leading to Qingzhou or Hongyun Cultivation World.

Returning to the Qingzhou Cultivation World via [Azure Fish Hall] is too troublesome.

Therefore, Su Bai decided that in order to find the Profound Dome Bamboo, he would go to the Southern Sea Cultivation World once the Thunderous Beast came of age.

They cultivate and refine elixirs within the Pill Shop.

Before we knew it, it was mid-May.

This day.

Su Bai and Zhang Ying siblings, stood in the Rear Courtyard of Pill Shop.

In the flowerbed in the Rear Courtyard, a two-meter-tall spirit cocoon stood shimmering.

Faint Spiritual Qi continuously emanated from it.

Suddenly, the spirit cocoon trembled violently and began to shatter into pieces like snowflakes.

A snow-white figure darted out from within—it was a fully grown Thunderous Beast, the size of a white wolf!

The most striking feature of the adult Thunderous Beast is its pair of ears.

Its ears are the same size as its head, with mysterious and ancient natural patterns appearing inside the earlobes.
