Then, with a gentle wave of his hand, he said, “Alright, take them all back!”

Upon hearing these words, Zhou Chun also breathed a sigh of relief and quickly retracted the Spirit Pet and Demon Insect that were very uncomfortable in this environment.

After completing these tasks, Zhou Chun turned to Zhou Mingde and asked, “Supreme Elder, what should we do next? Do you know what that white Jade Bead inside me is?”

“Let’s not rush into anything, first let’s take a look at that corpse!”

Zhou Mingde waved his hand and immediately turned his gaze towards the Cold Spring.

To their slight change in expression, the corpse was no longer visible in the Cold Spring.

...

“Could it have been shattered during the recent upheaval?”

Zhou Chun asked with a look of surprise on his face.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Mingde couldn’t help but carefully recall the prior events.

However, at the time, both of them had focused their attention on the White Toad and had not paid attention to the corpse, indeed not noticing how it disappeared.

“Perhaps that’s indeed the case,”

After recalling for a good while and not discovering anything, Zhou Mingde could only sigh lightly and nod his head.

Then he glanced at the Cold Spring that emitted chill and the ice walls surrounding them, and with a light sigh said, “Let’s go, it seems there is nothing left to investigate here, we’ll talk more when we get back!”

After speaking, he led the way out of the ice cavern.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun naturally followed closely behind him.

When they had reached the outside, Zhou Chun, looking back at the entrance, couldn’t help but ask Zhou Mingde, “Supreme Elder, do you think we should block this entrance?”

“Forget it, there is no need, it’s better just to leave it as it is!”

Zhou Mingde pondered for a moment, then shook his head, dismissing the idea.

Then the two of them returned to the Zhou Family, without taking a detour to Longxing Valley.

Upon returning to Jiufeng Ridge, Zhou Mingde directly took Zhou Chun to his own cave abode.

“Sit down, let the old man see what exactly is going on with that white Jade Bead in your Dantian!”

Inside the cave abode, Zhou Mingde, looking at Zhou Chun in front of him, directly signaled for him to sit down for the inspection.

And Zhou Chun was very cooperative, immediately sitting in the lotus position, allowing the examination.

Zhou Mingde quickly projected his Divine Sense into Zhou Chun’s Dantian, as Zhou Chun opened his mind without any resistance.

But to Zhou Mingde’s great surprise, he could not see the white Jade Bead Zhou Chun had mentioned inside his Dantian!

“Strange, Zhengchun, are you sure that there is a white Jade Bead in your Dantian? Why can’t I find anything!”

Zhou Mingde, retracting his Divine Sense, looked at Zhou Chun with a face full of doubt and confusion and raised the question.

His words greatly surprised Zhou Chun, who couldn’t help but calm his mind and inspect his Dantian,

Upon his internal inspection, the white Jade Bead was still quietly situated there, with no change.

Then, with a firm expression, he nodded to Zhou Mingde and said, “Junior is absolutely certain of this, that thing is within my Dantian!”

“I see, you may stand up now,”

After remaining silent for a while, Zhou Mingde nodded gently and promptly told Zhou Chun to get up.

Then lowering his head in thought, he said to Zhou Chun, “If everything you are saying is true, then this should be a fortunate opportunity for you.”

“Based on my conjecture, that white Jade Bead in your Dantian is very likely a Dharma Treasure with formidable power!”

“And the White Toad that we had seen might just be the Artifact Spirit of this powerful Dharma Treasure!”

Hearing these words, Zhou Chun also felt quite shocked.

He couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise, “But aren’t Dharma Treasures only supposed to be refined and used by Cultivators at the Golden Core Stage? And do such things as Artifact Spirits really exist in this world?”

“Indeed, Dharma Treasures can only be refined and used by those above the Golden Core Stage cultivation level, but Zhengchun, you haven’t refined that thing yet, have you?”

Zhou Mingde, having said this, whispered, “As for the reality of Artifact Spirits, since such legends have always existed in the Cultivation World, it implies that they must truly exist!”

His explanation was logical and well-founded, leaving Zhou Chun with no grounds for rebuttal.

However, Zhou Chun soon thought of something else and suddenly asked, “What about the strange howling earlier? And the inexplicable fear felt by the Fire Divine Jackals? How do we explain these?”

“The strange howls must have been made by the Artifact Spirit!”

“As for why the Fire Divine Jackals were so terrified of the White Toad, it might also be related to the White Toad’s origins!”

Zhou Mingde continued to answer Zhou Chun’s questions, seemingly having insight into everything.

Listening to his answers, Zhou Chun furrowed his brows again and couldn’t help but say, “What are the origins of the White Toad? What do you mean by that, Supreme Elder?”

Upon hearing this, Zhou Mingde coughed lightly and said, “Cough cough, I shall boldly speculate that the root of the White Toad Artifact Spirit is very likely the Demon Soul Primordial Spirit of a fifth-order Demon King. Hence, even after becoming an Artifact Spirit and having its memories erased, it still retains the Demon King’s awe-inspiring presence that can subdue myriad demons!”

Upon hearing this theory, Zhou Chun was so startled that his mouth fell open.

“The Demon Soul Primordial Spirit of a fifth-order Demon King, Supreme Elder, you really dare to think and speak boldly!!”

Zhou Chun looked at Zhou Mingde with an odd expression, truly admiring the other’s daring thoughts.

He himself was always daring in his thoughts, but this was something he had never dared to consider.

What kind of existence was a fifth-order Demon King!

Such a powerful being that could rival a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator was said to be even rarer than Nascent Soul Stage cultivators.

Let alone them, even Golden Core Stage cultivators might not get to see one in their entire lives!

And to slay a fifth-order Demon King, extract its Demon Soul Primordial Spirit, and refine it into a Dharma Treasure to become its Artifact Spirit—how immense must one’s Divine Skills be?

Would a mighty individual with such Divine Skills silently perish in the wilderness?

Even if the man who vanished in the Cold Spring was not the one who refined the Dharma Treasure, possessing such a powerful Dharma Treasure would mean he is no ordinary individual, right? How could he have died there?

After Zhou Chun voiced these thoughts too, Zhou Mingde seriously replied, “Perhaps the possessor of the Dharma Treasure wasn’t as highly cultivated as we imagine. Right now, Zhengchun, don’t you also possess this Dharma Treasure?”

This response left Zhou Chun momentarily speechless.

Finally, he could only say, “Then what should this junior do next? Do you have any advice, Supreme Elder?”

“If you ask for my advice, I suggest you not concern yourself with it for now. Since the treasure has chosen you, it shows you are fated with it, and it should not harm you.”

“Moreover, since I could not detect it, it shows the treasure knows how to conceal itself. You don’t have to worry about other high-level cultivators discovering it within you.”

“As for your inability to establish a connection with it, it is mostly due to your low cultivation level. From now on, you just need to focus on elevating your cultivation level!”

Zhou Mingde gave his advice after a moment of contemplation.

He spoke easily, but Zhou Chun could not take it as lightly as he said.

However, Zhou Chun did not say much more and verbally agreed to his suggestion.

Once he returned to his residence from the mountain summit cave dwelling, Zhou Chun immediately began studying the white Jade Bead with deep concentration.

He tirelessly attempted to touch the white Jade Bead with his Divine Sense, transmitting his goodwill.

But no matter how many times he tried, his Divine Sense was repelled.

Latter, he tried to tap into his Golden Soup Magical Power to touch the white Jade Bead, only to find that he couldn’t touch it at all.

Unable to touch or communicate, the white Jade Bead was like a piece of cold ice, mercilessly rejecting Zhou Chun’s friendly overtures.

Fortunately, when Zhou Chun sat in meditation for cultivation, the presence of the white Jade Bead in his Dantian did not cause any disturbance.

From then on, however, whenever he had free time, Zhou Chun would uncontrollably touch his lower abdomen, often frowning and remaining silent.

And just as Zhou Chun was worried about the white Jade Bead that had unexpectedly appeared inside him, Zhou Daoyi, who had always been a concern, finally appeared outside Longxing Valley.

“Phew, at last, I’ve arrived!”

Outside Longxing Valley, Zhou Daoyi, who was wearing a simple Beast Skin coat, slowly emerged from the forest. A smile finally appeared on his pale face.
