Indeed, Zhou Chun’s stratagem quickly bore fruit.
Stimulated by the aura of “Mystical Armor Golden Feather,” the few remaining male bees inside the hive suddenly swarmed out, intent on killing the demon insects that dared to intrude into their territory.
But as soon as they left the cave, Zhou Chun blocked their way.
These male bees were also very aggressive and, realizing that someone was blocking their path, they immediately spat out Cold Qi Arrows at Zhou Chun, only to quickly activate the “Moon Toad Pearl,” a Spiritual Treasure, and follow in the footsteps of the previous swarm of bees.
After easily capturing a few male bees, Zhou Chun, seeing only the Bee King left in the hive, finally did not hesitate to bring out his Magic Artifact and started breaking through the mountain to create a tunnel.
He was very clear in his mind that with young bees inside, the Bee King would not possibly leave the hive. Now, the only way was to personally create a direct tunnel to the hive and capture them all in one fell swoop.
The rock on the mountain wall was extremely hard, but Zhou Chun was now a Purple Mansion Phase Cultivator and had already begun to possess the power to rip open mountains and cleave the earth.
Under his full-strength assault, it took him less than four hours to open up a tunnel leading straight to the hive.
Zhou Chun then raised his hand to slap his Storage Pouch on his waist, releasing the Golden Armor Rock Turtle and the Golden Winged Tiger to act as protectors outside, while he himself strode into the tunnel he had created.
The significant commotion of creating the tunnel had long been noticed by the Bee King deep within the hive. It understood that the demon bees that had gone out before had already been killed.
So, when Zhou Chun arrived at the cavern where the hive was located, the Bee King, which had been anxiously restless within the hive, immediately appeared and launched an attack on him.
Generally speaking, the Bee King, as the leader of the swarm, does not easily leave the hive to fight enemies.
But this does not mean that its combat ability is weak.
On the contrary, as the king of a tribe, its strength must be the greatest of the entire clan.
For instance, the Bee King Zhou Chun was facing now had a body as thick as a human waist, and the white Cold Qi it exhaled was no longer just a single arrow, but a column of air.
In that moment, even Zhou Chun’s Divine Sense seemed to be frozen, losing its response.

The “Moon Toad Pearl” too seemed to be stimulated by something or attracted by some delicious food and, without waiting for the white air column to land on him, it actively flew out of his mouth, confronting the air column.
The Cold Qi, which could even freeze Divine Sense, was like a mouse facing a cat in front of the white Treasure Bead, turning directly into its meal.
In just a few breaths’ time, the Cold Qi that the Bee King had accumulated was completely consumed by the white Treasure Bead, and, as if drained of strength, it let out a pained cry and fell to the ground.
Just like that, Zhou Chun effortlessly took down the terrifyingly powerful Bee King.
He swiftly took out a jade box and a Sealing Talisman, subdued the Bee King on the ground with no strength left to resist, and sealed it away. Then, he turned his gaze to the hive hanging above his head like a piece of artwork.
The largest part of this hive was more than ten feet in diameter, consisting of five layers, with a spacing of about two to three feet between each layer.
Zhou Chun’s gaze was mainly on the white jade stone on top of the hive. If he was not mistaken, it should be a piece of Millennium Cold Jade Ore.
As everyone knows, where there is Millennium Cold Jade, there must be Cold Jade Veins as well.
“According to the doctrines of formations, the location of the Millennium Cold Jade generally serves as the focal point of the entire Cold Jade Vein, accumulating the essence of the entire vein. These Demon Bees have set their nest here, drawing the essence of an entire Cold Jade Vein to nourish themselves, truly well chosen!”
Zhou Chun’s eyes sparkled with excitement as he looked at the hive and the piece of Cold Jade, quickly forming a plan.
Cold Jade Veins were extremely precious and not easy to mine. He definitely couldn’t take them with him, and it wasn’t feasible to secretly mine them like he did with the “Earth Origin Crystal Jade.”
Thus, it would be better to trade this vein with Snow Essence Palace, who had a great demand for such an item.
Of course, Zhou Chun, with his Purple Mansion Phase cultivation level, definitely wasn’t qualified to trade with Snow Essence Palace. This task had to be handled by Lin Hongyu, a Golden Core Stage Cultivator.
With Lin Hongyu’s Golden Core Stage cultivation level, she had just enough qualification to catch Snow Essence Palace’s attention and make them willing to pay a certain price for the trade.
However, although Zhou Chun couldn’t take the entire vein with him, there was no problem in taking with him the large piece of Millennium Cold Jade in front of him.
If Zhou Chun wanted to domesticate those Demon Bees and cultivate a strong swarm in the future, he would certainly need the help of these items. He would even need to dig up more regular Cold Jade ore in the days to come to serve as the daily food for the Demon Bees.
With his plans in mind, Zhou Chun immediately started to put them into action.
He carefully collected all the young bees from the hive and stored them in a jade box, thoughtfully placing some chunks of meat inside to prevent them from starving and attacking each other.
Then, he summoned a Magic Artifact to dig upwards, excavating the Millennium Cold Jade and the attached bee hive in one fell swoop.
“What a massive piece of Millennium Cold Jade!”
Inside the cave, as Zhou Chun looked at the Millennium Cold Jade he had unearthed, he couldn’t help but exclaim in amazement.
The whole piece of Millennium Cold Jade was more than three zhang long and almost four chi thick at its widest, emitting a dense chill.
Such a large piece of Millennium Cold Jade, if put up for auction in the Great Zhou Kingdom, would probably fetch one or two million Spirit Coins, or even more!
However, for Zhou Chun, no matter how precious the Millennium Cold Jade was, he would definitely not sell it. After all, Spirit Coins could be earned at any time, but such treasures were not easily bought with money.
Luckily, his Storage Pouch had a storage space of over three zhang, barely enough to accommodate both the item and the bee hive underneath. Otherwise, he would have had to cut off a portion to take it away.
And he always carried more than two Storage Pouches on him.
After emptying his commonly used Storage Pouch, Zhou Chun put the Millennium Cold Jade and the bee hive inside it, then placed his belongings in another spare Storage Pouch.
After completing this task, he dug around the cave hall and indeed found some century-old Cold Jade and common Cold Jade, confirming that there was indeed a vein of Cold Jade here.
He hurriedly dug up some Cold Jade to serve as food for the Demon Bees in the future, then sealed off the cave and left the place ahead of time.
Outside, Zhou Chun packed away all the jade boxes containing Demon Bees, tossed the wooden box onto the back of the Golden Winged Tiger, and then rode the tiger to fly out of the Snow Valley.
However, out of caution, Zhou Chun carefully scanned the surroundings of the Snow Valley with his Divine Sense as he left.
This led him to a quick discovery.
A glint of cold light flashed in his eyes as he suddenly turned towards a spot outside the Snow Valley and said, “Taoist Friend Fu, what are you hiding there for? Could it be that you are specifically waiting for Zhou Chun?”
No sooner had the words fallen than a figure flew out from the snowy ground, stirring up a large swath of snowflakes, revealing Fu Changqing’s figure.
After flying into mid-air, Fu Changqing immediately showed a pleasing expression and greeted Zhou Chun with a bow, saying, “Senior Zhou, please forgive me. It was just curiosity that got the better of me, prompting me to wait here. I had no disrespectful intentions towards Senior at all!”
“Oh, was it really just out of curiosity?”
Zhou Chun looked at him with a smile that was not quite a smile, his gaze inscrutable.
Fu Changqing’s face instantly changed, and he hurriedly swore, “I swear, it was truly just curiosity that made me stay. Should there be the slightest falsehood, may I be hacked to pieces and never find a place to be buried!”
Seeing this, Zhou Chun nodded and said, “Since Taoist Friend Fu has said so, naturally, I have no reason not to believe you.”
He continued with a faint smile, “Actually, I might as well tell Taoist Friend Fu that indeed I have captured that swarm of Demon Insects and even discovered a vein of Cold Jade in their nest!”
Upon hearing this, Fu Changqing’s eyes widened and his mouth gaped open.
It was unclear whether he was shocked by Zhou Chun’s strength and remarkable harvest or surprised that Zhou Chun would actually share this information with him.
But soon, Fu Changqing realized something. After his expression underwent several changes, he quickly squeezed out a smile and bowed to congratulate Zhou Chun, “Congratulations to Senior Zhou! Senior’s Divine Skills are broad and vast, and your fortune is profound; it truly amazes me.”
In response to his congratulations, Zhou Chun simply gave a slight nod, saying, “Hmm, now that Taoist Friend Fu’s curiosity should be satisfied, let’s head back to the base.”
“Late… Junior obeys!”
Fu Changqing opened his mouth, but showed no joy from having his curiosity satisfied, only unease on his face.
