Apart from countries like the Great Zhou Kingdom, where powerful figures gather, in the majority of the Cultivation World, there's only one ruling entity.

Since the Dragon Transformation Sect's demise, Jingguo Country has had only one authority, which is the Moon Wheel Sect.

Although the Zhou Family currently appears to have surpassed the Moon Wheel Sect in surface strength, aspiring to be Jingguo's ruling power still requires overcoming many challenges.

Among them, gaining recognition from other local forces poses the biggest obstacle.

Since the Zhou Family has longstanding enmities with the Moon Wheel Sect and the Sunflame Sect, it is nearly impossible for these two forces to acknowledge them as Jingguo's ruling power.

If neither acknowledges them, then Zhou Chun would need to become a Great Nascent Soul Late Stage Cultivator to qualify for that position.

Thus, even after Luo Qingni successfully formed her Nascent Soul, Zhou Chun did not rush this initiative nor sought to expand his influence.

Initially, he planned to wait until his four Spirit Pets advanced to Fifth-order Demon Kings, so he could aggressively pursue this matter.

At that point, the battle formation secret technique conjured by four Fifth-order Demon Kings could likely contend with a Great Nascent Soul Late Stage Cultivator.

With the additional support from himself and Luo Qingni, they would wield overwhelming power to pressure the Moon Wheel Sect to relinquish their position and compel the Sunflame Sect to agree to the Zhou Family becoming Jingguo's ruling power.

However, the effectiveness of a coercive approach is not as favorable as having voluntary cooperation.

For instance, if the Sunflame Sect supports the Zhou Family as Jingguo's ruling power, Zhou Chun wouldn't even need to overpower the Moon Wheel Sect. As long as Zhou Family's strength is made evident as far surpassing the Moon Wheel Sect, recognition would naturally follow.

Eventually, the Moon Wheel Sect would have no choice but to concede the position.

So, when Ziyang True Person presented this condition, Zhou Chun agreed with little hesitation.

In fact, even without acquiring the True Dragon Seal, obtaining the position of Jingguo's ruling power is worth exchanging the Sunflame Treasure.

After all, this treasure had been heavily damaged during Tribulation Thunder, and without the Spirit Treasure Incantation to refine and use it, it no longer significantly boosts Fengyuan Monarch's combat strength.

Furthermore, Fengyuan Monarch has already received the method for refining his family's inherited Dharma Treasures from bloodline memory, ensuring he won't lack suitable Dharma Treasures in the future.

Yet despite agreeing, Zhou Chun did not immediately return the Sunflame Treasure to Ziyang True Person.

Instead, he stipulated that he would fulfill this promise several decades later, after making preparations to confront the Dual-Headed Black Flood Dragon.

He remained wary of Ziyang True Person, fearing that even if he didn't collude with alien races, he might lead him to the perilous Sky Barbarian Plains, using the alien race's hands to harm him.

Hence, only after the Golden Armor Turtle Bearer Stone advances to Demon King, providing sufficient life-preserving ability, would he venture to such dangerous territories.

Of course, should Wood Charm Mu Sang also rise to Demon King, it would be even better, achieving perfection.

Though Ziyang True Person wasn't very satisfied with Zhou Chun's condition, he understood he had no bargaining power, as the initiative didn't lie with him.

Ultimately, he could only reluctantly agree.

At least, with Zhou Chun's commitment, he could offer some explanation to Baiyang True Person and the Sect.

After negotiating terms with Ziyang True Person, Zhou Chun showed no interest in discussing further matters, quickly parting ways.

Since it was a rare visit to the Great Zhou Kingdom, Zhou Chun didn't immediately return to his family but instead met and communicated with several Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators stationed in Tianyuan Immortal City.

During these exchanges, when he curiously expressed an intent to trade for rare Spiritual Objects like Geng Metal that he required, he inadvertently acquired an enticing piece of news.

In a decade or so, the presently largest dominant force in the Great Zhou Kingdom, the Tianyi Sect, is set to host a grand "Tianyi Grand Assembly."

This "Tianyi Grand Assembly" initially commenced as a celebration of the Tianyi Sect's Divinity Transformation elder, Venerable Tianxuan's ascension; it later evolved into the preeminent exchange event in the Great Zhou Kingdom's cultivation society.

Each time it is held, the Tianyi Sect invites no less than one hundred Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators to participate in the assembly.

During the event, not only does Tianyi Sect present numerous treasures valuable even to Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators for exchange, but other invited Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators also offer their cherished treasures for mutual trade.

In past assemblies, items as valuable as the Infant Transformation Pill and Spiritual Treasures have been showcased!

Thus, whenever the "Tianyi Grand Assembly" occurs, regardless of whether Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators have received invitations, once informed, they will traverse great distances to the Tianyi Sect's mountain gate to take part unless otherwise engaged.

By hosting this "Tianyi Grand Assembly," the Tianyi Sect builds vast goodwill and accumulates worldwide treasures, consistently securing its top position in the Great Zhou Kingdom.

For Zhou Chun, the "Tianyi Grand Assembly" is undoubtedly the best opportunity to exchange for the Spiritual Objects he desires.
