Cultivating Immortals in the Family: Rising from Beast Familiarity

Chapter 11

"Brother Chun, you should know the family rules of my Zhou family before, so I won't repeat them."

"Now that the family has taken root in Jiufengling, and will completely become a cultivating family in the future, the rules will definitely change. This point has to be discussed and changed by the elders, patriarchs, and elders."

"At present, the family adapts to local conditions and time, and only adds a few more rules."

"One is not to be appointed by the family, and it is not allowed to go out and leave Jiufengling easily. This is mainly to protect the members of the clan, and at the same time minimize the chance of provoking enemies. After all, we are not familiar with the place now, and we are not familiar with the situation in Yasukuni. I don't know much about it."

"Secondly, the family's permission is not allowed. It is not allowed to show off the family's various methods in front of outsiders, and it is not allowed to leak the family's internal information to outsiders, and it is not allowed to bring outsiders back to the family. This is also to protect the family and clan members."

"Third, in order to concentrate on major tasks, the family temporarily stopped issuing spiritual coins to the clansmen as welfare and task rewards, and instead counted them with good deeds. Every bit of good deeds corresponds to one spiritual coin. The exchange of spirit coins."

……

All kinds of rules, big and small, and places that need attention and taboos, all came out of Zhou He's mouth and into Zhou Chun's ears.

One of the two spoke clearly and in detail, while the other listened carefully, taking notes while listening.

In less than a day, Zhou Chun had a clearer understanding of the general situation of the Zhou family.

It should be said that the general situation of the Zhou family is not bad.

Not counting those family members who may still be wandering outside like Zhou Chun, there are still more than 130 immortal cultivators in the Zhou family, including one cultivator in the Zifu stage, four cultivators in the foundation stage, and the rest are cultivators in the Qi refining stage By.

This level of strength, even in the entire Yasukuni Immortal Cultivation World, can rank among the top ten among many Cultivation Clans.

It's just that the Zhou family are newcomers after all, and they forcibly occupied Jiufengling, a geomantic treasure land, by violent means, which made them have a very bad reputation among the casual cultivators in Yasukuni.

And the Immortal Cultivation sects and Immortal Cultivation Clans in the surrounding Yasukuni are somewhat wary and hostile towards them as an external force, and are not very willing to cooperate with the Zhou family.

Fortunately, there are three other factions split from the Three Absolute Sect to share the pressure. For the time being, no one would dare to be the cigar in his early years, and jump out first to face Zhou Jiaming as an enemy.

It seems that the senior management of the Zhou family is also very aware of the difficulties the family is facing now, and the rules formulated according to the current situation are all to deal with these difficulties.

Zhou Chun believes that they should have other external measures to break this predicament, but he is not aware of it for the time being.

Of course, it's not Zhou's turn to worry about him now, and his cultivation and strength can't influence the Zhou family's decision-making.

Now he only needs to follow the arrangement above, and do all the assigned tasks after practicing every day.

And after explaining Zhou Chun's various attentions, Zhou He also told him a piece of news.

That was the group of loose cultivators who had ambushed and killed them near Jiufengling before, all of them had been beheaded by the third elder, Zhou Quan, and he had followed the clues to kill more than a dozen loose cultivators who also hated the Zhou family.

……

Another sunny morning.

On Baozhi Peak, after Zhou Chun meditated on the cliff on the top of the mountain, he went back to his residence to have breakfast.

His breakfast is also simple, just white porridge with steamed buns, some dried fruit and shredded pork.

In fact, many immortal cultivators do not have the habit of eating breakfast. At most, they eat some wild fruits in the mountains and drink a few sips of clear springs in the morning.

In the foundation building period, after being able to fast the grain, it is common to go without food for a month.

But Zhou Chun is different.

For him, maintaining the habit of three meals a day is a kind of commemoration of his previous life, which makes him clearly aware of the difference between himself and others every day.

And this kind of little habit, even if someone finds out, they won't care at all.

Even if someone really asked, Zhou Chun had sufficient reasons to explain.

After taking about two quarters of an hour to finish his breakfast, Zhou Chun went to the Jingling Pavilion on the mountainside of Baozhi Peak as if taking a walk.

Jingling Pavilion is located in a valley on the shady side of Baozhi Peak. The environment inside is quiet and fragrant, and many beautiful flowers are planted.

When Zhou Chun arrived in the valley, he saw three Zhou family monks sitting cross-legged around a well in the center of the valley in a square pavilion.

Every once in a while, a black and white jade pillar will pop up in the well.

At this time, the three monks of the Zhou family would hit the jade pillar one after another with control formulas, and press it back into the well again, repeating this endlessly.

That well is one of the bases of the Spirit Purification Formation that protects the Zhou family in Jiufengling, also known as "Shen Sha Well".

On the nine spiritual peaks of Jiufengling, there is such a Jingling Pavilion and a sinking well.

At every moment, there are monks from the Zhou family who are waiting by the well to control the magic circle, and sink the filthy energy absorbed by the magic circle into the depths of the ground, so as to ensure that the monks from the Zhou family on the mountain can absorb the refined spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It's all pure spirit.

This work is very tiring, not only exhausting, but also makes people unable to meditate and do other things normally.

Therefore, the Zhou family's current rule is that every Zhou family disciple who has cultivated in the mid-stage of Qi refining must guard the Jingling Pavilion for at least three hours a day.

Zhou Chun is now living on the top of Baozhi Peak, and he will be guarding the nearby Jingling Pavilion every day from now on.

Seeing that he arrived at the Jingling Pavilion on time at this time, a monk from the Zhou family who had been sitting here for enough time immediately nodded to him with a smile, greeted him, and left the place first.

And Zhou Chun took over the other party's task, sat on the futon where the other party was sitting cross-legged just now, and guarded the "Sinking Well" together with the other two Zhou family monks.

In addition to guarding the Jingling Pavilion, Zhou Family Qi Refining stage monks like Zhou Chun also need to take turns guarding several places in the mountain guard formation.

There is also a series of work to do for the spirit beasts domesticated in the mountain gate to go hunting, build some buildings, open up mountain roads between the peaks, and cultivate medicine gardens.

However, apart from guarding the Jingling Pavilion, there should be no sloppy accidents. The rest of the work is not difficult, and there is no one to control it. Just do a little bit every day.

After all, immortal cultivators don't have much else but time.

While doing these tasks, Zhou Chun naturally gradually met with other Zhou family monks and got acquainted.

On this day, Zhou Chun and several Zhou family monks returned from hunting in the mountains outside Jiufengling. After sending most of the prey to the animal garden, they returned to their residence.

As soon as he entered the yard, he saw the rock turtle gnawing on the bark.

At this time, three months have passed since Zhou Chun returned to the Zhou family in Jiufengling.

The rock-soil turtle spirit egg, which was just an egg at the beginning, has now hatched and grown into a small taupe turtle the size of a washbasin. It looks a bit like the snapping turtle in Zhou Chun's previous life.

An adult rock and soil turtle can stand three or four people on its back without being too crowded, so a turtle of this size is really just a "little turtle".

But don't look at this little guy's size is still small, his teeth are not bad.

It has sharp teeth and can easily crush pebbles.

So even if he hasn't awakened to master the innate spells of the rock and earth turtle clan, this little turtle is still very threatening to ordinary people.

The best thing about rock turtles is that they can eat almost anything.

Animal meat, bark, and even soil, all of which it can swallow and eat, have a very strong digestion ability.

At this time, the little tortoise, who sensed Zhou Chun's return, was poking at the small tree in the yard, immediately wagged his tail and turned his head to look at him, conveying the emotion of "hungry".

Generally speaking, spirit beasts hatched and domesticated by immortal cultivators from a young age, because they are rarely affected by the erosion of turbid evil spirits, have a much higher IQ than wild monsters.

Certain types of monsters that are born with relatively high IQs are even more likely to acquire intelligence no less than that of humans.

However, the IQ of monsters like the Rock Turtle is not very famous. Relying on the spiritual contract between the two parties, it can convey the emotions of understanding. For this little tortoise, which is only three months old, it is already capable. Made the best performance.

Fortunately, Zhou Chun didn't have any expectations for the IQ report of this rock-soil turtle. He only took a fancy to its rough skin and thick flesh, which can resist and fight. As long as he can help him fight in the future, it will be fine.

At this time, he immediately stepped forward, took out some animal heart, liver and other nourishing things that were specially left behind from the storage bag, and threw them into the food bowl, allowing the little turtle to gnaw and eat slowly.

He also walked into the kitchen to light a fire and start cooking.

Two quarters of an hour later, Zhou Chun either fried, baked, or boiled a few dishes, and then ate the sumptuous dinner by himself.
