Chapter 342: Chapter 90: Dragon Fish Banquet!

“Do tell me about it!”

Seeing Weih Qiuxin’s expression, Zhou Xun felt intrigued in his heart,

“Reporting to the Island Master, I have never stopped cultivating the Red Spirit Dragon Fish over the years, and recently, I successfully cultivated a Tier Two Red Spirit Dragon Fish!”

Zhou Xun was taken aback by the words!

It was actually a Tier Two Red Spirit Dragon Fish, which is already at the Foundation Establishment Stage level.

At this level, even the uncultivated demon beast flesh is rich in Spiritual Qi.

It is equivalent to high-quality elixirs and is more conducive to absorption without side effects like elixir poison, making it a superior aid for cultivation!

This specially cultivated Spirit Fish for consumption is even more so!

Not only is the Spiritual Qi content in the fish meat greater, but it also possesses more potent effects.

It is said that Red Spirit Dragon Fish above Tier Two can improve physique, enhance cultivation efficiency, and reduce cultivation bottlenecks, making it a treasure among treasures!

Each one sells for tens of thousands of Spirit Stones!

Even at the Ninth-Layer Foundation Establishment, this dragon fish flesh benefits him greatly.

The Tier Two Red Spirit Dragon Fish Jelly it possesses is even a nourishing holy grade item, which even Core Formation Stage Cultivators consuming it can gain beauty-enhancing effects!

Weih Qiuxin’s ancestors became esteemed guests of Core Formation Cultivators relying on this Red Spirit Dragon Fish cultivation skill!

“Qiuxin, this is quite an accomplishment!”

“The Island Master overpraises; these are merely Qiuxin’s duties!” Weih Qiuxin cupped her hands and said.

Looking at Weih Qiuxin, who carried a hint of a competent aura, Zhou Xun nodded slightly.

“When I appointed her as the Chief Steward of Wangchuan Lake, it turns out I didn’t make a wrong choice!”

A competent Chief Steward can not only ensure the smooth operation of the Dao Field but also enhance its development, bringing rich rewards to oneself.

Just like years ago with Zhou Buqi, White Cloud Immortal City flourished under his management!

Master White Cloud’s accumulation of so many resources is not unrelated to Zhou Buqi.

“Merit must be rewarded; it’s the practice of Wangchuan Lake!”

Zhou Xun pondered for a moment with his head down, patted his Storage Bag, and a Spirit Light flashed, turning into a Pill Bottle that fell into Zhou Xun’s palm!

With a flick of his finger, the Pill Bottle floated towards Weih Qiuxin.

“Here is a ’Cyan Spirit Pill,’ as a reward for cultivating the Tier Two Red Spirit Dragon Fish!”

The Cyan Spirit Pill, a Tier Two Middle-Grade Tier-Breaking Elixir, assists in breaking through the early-stage Foundation Establishment.

It is a treasured item coveted by early-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivators, worth tens of thousands of Spirit Stones.

“Thank you, Island Master!” Weih Qiuxin, delighted upon hearing this, immediately accepted the Pill Bottle and placed it into her Storage Bag.

She is currently an early-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator and will surely reach the peak of early-stage Foundation Establishment in another ten or twenty years.

By then, she can take this Cyan Spirit Pill and make a breakthrough!

“You’ve done well; I’m very pleased!”

“The matters of Wangchuan Lake still need your handling, but don’t forget cultivation; if you can cultivate to the peak of Foundation Establishment in the future, I will grant you a Core Formation Spiritual Object!”

“Such a capable Chief Steward as you, if I could only keep you for two hundred years, it would be a pity!”

Zhou Xun laughed heartily and said.

“Qiuxin will surely do her utmost!”

Weih Qiuxin cupped her hands, a hint of excitement flashing in her eyes.

She felt doubly assured of the correctness of her choice back in the day.

Who would have thought that the chief entertainer of Junyue Pavilion, once known for laughter, the White Spirit Fairy, might one day become a Core Formation Cultivator.

“Hahaha!” Zhou Xun laughed heartily.

“By the way, since you have cultivated this Tier Two Red Spirit Dragon Fish, how about hosting a dragon fish tasting party and let Jingsong and the others taste the flavor of this Tier Two Dragon Fish!”

Red Spirit Dragon Fish is already exceedingly delicious, a representative of world cuisine.

This has reached Tier Two level, and it is even more so!

“Who does the Island Master want to invite?”

Upon hearing Zhou Xun planning a feast, the Chief Steward Weih Qiuxin immediately got into character.

“There aren’t many Tier Two Dragon Fish, inviting a few friends along with our people from Wangchuan Lake will suffice,”

Zhou Xun thought for a while, then continued:

“Master Yun’an as the Sect Leader of Cloud Light Sect must be invited,”

“Also, Master Fengg Yuu, I’ve heard his granddaughter gets along well with Jing’er; it’s a good time to discuss their marriage this time!”

“Also send an invitation to Song Family of Qingyue Square, and the Lin Family of Red Leaf Square…”

“Then there’s Xuan Feizi of Fengg Country, Master Tianyang, Song Family Ancestor, Master Wenyang,”

“Send one to Master Hu Kui too!”

Master Hu Kui holds extraordinary skills with puppetry; it’s perfect for Zhou Xun’s interest in developing this field and inviting him will be a great consultation opportunity.

Moreover, Zhou Xun also plans to order a few Foundation Establishment tier puppets to supplement the combat strength of the personnel under his command.

After all, for a Core Formation level influence, the number of Foundation Establishment Cultivators under his command is somewhat lacking.

Of course, should Zhou Xun spread the word, numerous people would surely want to join.

After all, Zhou Xun is a future Late-Stage Core Formation Cultivator.

Joining Wangchuan Lake means having Zhou Xun as their backing, which they naturally desire.

Yet for this reason, Zhou Xun is not keen to recruit external personnel.

Such personnel, who come at a call and leave at a wave, are the first to flee once a major battle arises!

“Yes, I will take care of it immediately!” Weih Qiuxin nodded, then promptly took her leave.

…

Time flies, and two months passed by in the blink of an eye.

During these two months, another Spirit Plant was cultivated to Tier Three Top-Grade, and with the help of this Spirit Medicine Essence, Zhou Xun’s Spirit Root Sensitivity unexpectedly reached sixty-five points.

This year, Zhou Xun was seventy-five years old.

…

This spirit fish banquet was a private invitation, so Zhou Xun decided to hold it on Lake Heart Island.

On this day, Xuan Feizi of Fengg Country, Master Tianyang, Master Hu Kui, and Master Wenyang traveled together, heading towards Wangchuan Lake.

The Song Family Ancestor, Song Shiweng, did not come as he needed to oversee Fengyuan City.

However, his presence might be somewhat awkward.

After all, he had not-so-pleasant memories from his time here!

After traveling for over a dozen days, the four finally arrived at the territory of Wangchuan Lake.

“Is that Master Zhou’s Daoist venue!”

Looking at the Wangchuan Lake nestled like a pearl among the distant mountain ranges.

“Indeed, it’s a great place!” Master Xuan Feizi couldn’t help but praise.

“Yes, the landscape is quite alluring!”

The four followed the path and soon arrived near Wangchuan Lake.

Observing the mist-covered lake surface, with their knowledge, they naturally knew it was the effect of a Tier Three Array.

“What an enormous array, it covers almost half of the Wangchuan Lake, doesn’t it!”

Master Tianyang remarked with amazement!

“This is the array laid down by Master Nanyue back then. It is said that several Fake Pill Cultivators from the Celestial Feather Sect met their demise under this array!”

“The power of this array is not much inferior to the Clan Protection Array of the Song Family!”

The Song Family Array was also set by Master Nanyue, and is at the Tier Three Middle-Grade Level!

Though Zhou Xun’s array was only Tier Three Low-Grade, it possessed True Spirit Transformation, providing an additional early-stage Core Formation combat strength.

Thus it was not much inferior to ordinary Tier Three Middle-Grade Arrays.

Moreover, Zhou Xun was a High-Grade True Pill expert, destined to become a Late-Stage Core Formation Cultivator. The level of his future Dao Field Array would naturally not be low.

With the defensive grand array being this tight, the four dared not to advance recklessly.

They saw Master Profound Cloud wave his sleeve, sending a Spirit Talisman into the grand array.

Soon, the mist parted, revealing a passage about ten feet wide, from which walked out a man in a green robe with a gentle demeanor, none other than Zhou Xun.

Behind him were Song Yiqing and Wei Qiuxin.

“Greetings to Master Wangchuan (Brother Zhou)!”

Upon seeing this, the three alongside Master Profound Cloud were the first to pay their respects!

“Greetings to Daoist Profound Cloud, Daoist Wenyang, Daoist Hu Kui, Brother Tianyang!”

Master Profound Cloud and the other three noticed that Zhou Xun addressed them with their Daoist titles, but called Master Tianyang ’brother.’

This made Master Profound Cloud and the others look at each other in surprise.

How did their relationship become so close!

Master Tianyang, with a pleased look, said:

“Brother Zhou came to my Fengg Country in search of a Tier Three Talisman Pen, and it so happened that my sect had one, so I exchanged it with Brother Zhou!”

“Indeed, Brother Tianyang’s Talisman Pen has proven to be very useful to me!” Zhou Xun nodded.

Seeing this, Master Hu Kui lamented on the side.

As Master Wenyang mentioned, Zhou Xun intended to commission him for a custom Tier Three Talisman Pen at first!

Missing such an opportunity to foster goodwill with Zhou Xun made him somewhat regretful.

However, Zhou Xun’s invitation to this Dragon Fish feast indicated he valued him greatly.

“Looks like I still have a chance!”

Master Hu Kui thought so.

Then, without further conversation, under Zhou Xun’s lead, they directly flew toward Lake Heart Island.

It was a private feast this time, with not many attendees.

There were roughly only three tables.

Zhou Xun sat at one table with several Core Formation Stage Cultivators, with Lin Xueying and Song Yiqing accompanying him.

Zhou Jingsong, Fang Tianlun, Wei Hong, and other subordinates of Zhou Xun were at another table.

In addition, Xun Houqing and Song Zhishu, among other old friends, sat together with Patriarch Lin, and the Patriarch of Song Family from Qingyue Square.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Zhou Xun spoke:

“I organized this Dragon Fish feast, thank you all for honoring us with your presence to enjoy this fine cuisine together!”

“The Tier Two Red Spirit Dragon Fish is so rare; if not for Daoist Zhou’s invitation, I would never have gotten a taste of this worldly delicacy!”

Master Profound Cloud laughed heartily.

“Indeed, we are in for a treat today!”

“In that case, let’s serve the dishes!” He then glanced at Wei Qiuxin on the side.

Seeing this, Wei Qiuxin nodded.

Moments later, the cooked Red Spirit Dragon Fish was brought to the table.

To cook this Tier Two Red Spirit Dragon Fish, Zhou Xun specially invited Dong Fangxin, the most famous Spirit Chef from Xui Country.

The Tier Two Red Spirit Dragon Fish weighed over a thousand pounds, plenty for everyone present to share.

In fact, the feast used less than half of the fish.

As the Dragon Fish was placed on the table, a faint aroma wafted through the air, making one’s mouth water!

“Ladies and gentlemen, please!”

With that, Zhou Xun was the first to take a bite and put it into his mouth.

Once the fish entered his mouth, a burst of incomparably fresh taste erupted, as if in a sea of spring flowers, bringing immense joy!

“Indeed a delicacy of the world!”

Zhou Xun praised!

Seeing Zhou Xun move his chopsticks, the others also started eating.

“The taste of the Dragon Fish truly lives up to its name!” Master Profound Cloud closed his eyes, with a face full of delight!

“I was known as a Wine Fool, but it seems today I must add another title, calling myself a Fish Fool!”

Master Hu Kui remarked!

As for the other Foundation Establishment Cultivators, they were immensely enchanted.

At the same time, the rich Spiritual Qi contained in the Spirit Fish greatly benefited their cultivation.

Many of them immediately operated their cultivation techniques to refine it.
