Chapter 1462: Chapter 581: After Darkness Comes Blooms [8000-word Big Chapter, Please Subscribe]
After bidding farewell to Zhang Mengde, Zhou Chun immediately began investigating the intelligence and information regarding the Flying Snow Palace and the Ice Moon Toad.
As Zhang Mengde himself had said, the Ice Moon Toad is indeed quite famous in the Ice Barbarian Country. Many cultivators familiar with the Flying Snow Palace have heard of this demon beast’s name.
But this is not necessarily a good thing!
According to the information Zhou Chun gathered, the Ice Moon Toad is extremely important to the cultivators of the Flying Snow Palace. Its produced Toad Cream and blood are essential materials for refining certain elixirs in the palace.
A rather credible rumor is that the Toad Cream of a Third Order Ice Moon Toad can be used as the main ingredient to refine the spirit pill Ice Accumulation Pill, which aids in opening the Purple Mansion.
This pill is most effective for cultivators practicing ice attribute techniques and is not much inferior to standard spirit pills like the Purple Dust Pill. It can be mixed with other supporting Purple Mansion spirit matters.
The shops run by the Flying Snow Palace release an Ice Accumulation Pill each year for auction, and sometimes several of these spirit pills appear at auction events.
Even some of the other major sects in the Ice Barbarian Country will purchase these spirit pills in bulk from the Flying Snow Palace.
By taking advantage of the mass production of these spirit pills, the Flying Snow Palace has become the force with the most Purple Mansion Phase and Golden Core Stage cultivators in the Ice Barbarian Country!
It is said that there are over four hundred Purple Mansion Phase cultivators alone, with at least one Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Flying Snow Palace successfully opening the Purple Mansion each year.
This large number of Purple Mansion Phase cultivators also greatly boosts the number of Golden Core Stage cultivators at the Flying Snow Palace, with nearly thirty Golden Core Stage cultivators now in the palace, on par with the Moon Wheel Sect, the largest sect in Jingguo Country!
However, the Flying Snow Palace is not the largest force in the Ice Barbarian Country!
Accordingly, the Toad Cream of the Ice Moon Toad can also be used as material to refine other effective elixirs, and its demon core is the best material for refining some Barrier Breaking Spirit Pills.
There are even rumors that the Toad Cream from a Fourth Order Ice Moon Toad can substitute for Extreme Cold Ice Marrow Liquid!
Given the significant uses of the Ice Moon Toad, it is understandable how much importance the Flying Snow Palace places on this demon beast.
To be blunt, the value of a single Third Order Ice Moon Toad surpasses that of their own Purple Mansion Phase cultivator.
To prevent the Ice Moon Toad from being acquired by others and to protect the population of these demon beasts, the Flying Snow Palace even prohibits their own disciples from contracting with them, fully raising them in free-range methods within the sect’s gates, where even an ordinary Purple Mansion Phase cultivator at the Flying Snow Palace cannot have contact with these demon beasts!
Zhou Chun also heard an uncertain rumor that the Nascent Soul Stage True Person in the Flying Snow Palace scans the Snow Mountain Heavenly Pond daily with their Divine Sense, counting the number of Ice Moon Toads in the population!
With such rigorous management and defense methods, although many major sects in the Ice Barbarian Country covet the uses of the Ice Moon Toad and wish to obtain them, no successful attempts have been heard of to this day.
After understanding all this, Zhou Chun’s joy was entirely dispelled.
According to his estimation, to successfully cultivate the Holy Spirit Nine Transformations - Moon Toad Chapter, he would either need to obtain pure Lunar Spirit Blood from a Greater Yin Moon Toad or acquire a large amount of Lifebound Essence Blood from a Fourth Order magical beast with the bloodline of the Greater Yin Moon Toad.
In the latter case, he would either have to slay a Fourth Order magical beast to obtain all its Lifebound Essence Blood or capture and keep a Fourth Order magical beast with him, periodically extracting part of its Lifebound Essence Blood.
Whichever way he chooses, he would mean to take a Fourth Order Ice Moon Toad!
But the quantity of Fourth Order Ice Moon Toads is incredibly rare. The Flying Snow Palace has only accumulated less than a handful over thousands of years, and each one is of incalculable value!
If Zhou Chun dared to make a move on the Fourth Order Ice Moon Toads of the Flying Snow Palace, it is likely that the Nascent Soul Stage True Person of the Flying Snow Palace would personally pursue him.
Moreover, to kill or capture such a Fourth Order magical beast within the gates of the Flying Snow Palace is practically impossible.
Thus, what seemed to be easily accessible information turned out to be the most difficult endeavor to complete!
However, difficult does not mean it cannot be done.
For Zhou Chun, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, he will strive to seize it.
It’s just that he will not place all his hopes on the Ice Moon Toad. His original plan to gather intelligence through the widespread cultivators of the Ice Barbarian Country must continue.
But before putting everything into action, Zhou Chun needs to do one thing: find a way to obtain some Ice Moon Toad spirit blood.
It doesn’t have to be Fourth Order Ice Moon Toad spirit blood; even Third Order is sufficient.
He only needs it to confirm whether the Ice Moon Toad indeed has the Greater Yin Moon Toad bloodline.
Compared to directly obtaining an Ice Moon Toad corpse or a live Ice Moon Toad, this matter, though also challenging, is not extraordinarily difficult.
After all, the Flying Snow Palace itself often collects Ice Moon Toad spirit blood for alchemy and medicine creation. As long as Zhou Chun does not require a vast amount, the handlers involved usually have the operational leeway to privately stash some aside.
Zhou Chun took about half a year to successfully obtain a bottle of Third Order Ice Moon Toad spirit blood from an intermediary through the help of a Purple Mansion Phase cultivator at the Flying Snow Palace.
This single bottle of Third Order demon beast spirit blood cost him as much as thirty thousand Spirit Coins, enough to buy an ordinary Third Order lower-grade Magic Artifact!
