Cultivating Immortals in the Family: Rising from Beast Familiarity

Chapter 15

Lanzhou, Biyun Lake.

Biyun Lake is a famous lake in Lanzhou, Jingguo. Its water is as green as jade and the scenery is picturesque. It is a place that many literati like to visit.

On the west bank of Biyun Lake, there is a stretch of mountains called Biyun Mountain.

There is an area in the mountain that is filled with water and mist all year round. After pedestrians stray into it, it often takes several days to get out, and they will be seriously ill after they come out.

Over time, no one dared to easily enter it.

And those mortals naturally don't know that the area covered by mist in Biyun Mountain is exactly where the mountain gate of the Mu family, a cultivating family in Lanzhou, is located.

The Mu family in Biyun Mountain is inherited from the Qinglian Temple of the Jingguo School. Their ancestors were the outer disciples of the Qinglian Temple. Many people in the past have successfully worshiped in the Qinglian Temple to practice.

Today's Mu family not only has three foundation-building stage monks, but also two foundation-building stage clansmen in Qinglian Temple, one of whom is a named disciple of a Jindan stage monk in Qinglian Temple.

Therefore, in the entire Lanzhou, the Mu family is also a relatively famous Xiuxian family.

But after all, the Mu family is just a new family with a history of only more than 300 years. Although they are lucky and have produced some foundation-building monks one after another, in terms of accumulation, they are ultimately inferior to those old-fashioned families that have produced high-level monks or have been passed down for thousands of years.

The four major skills of cultivating immortals are alchemy and talisman array. With the Mu family's relationship in Qinglian Temple, it is not difficult to get some basic inheritance.

But in terms of beast control, there is not much inheritance even in Qinglian Temple.

And this way is no better than the four ways of the alchemy talisman array, you can easily use the materials to try to explore the experience.

So when the Zhou family came to the door, they offered to exchange for the friendship of the Mu family by helping to cultivate talents who are proficient in the art of controlling beasts.

Several foundation-building monks of the Mu family agreed to the matter after thinking about it for less than half a day.

After Zhou Chun received the mission five days ago, he spent another five days preparing on Baozhi Peak. Today, Zhou Daoquan, the third elder of the Zhou family, drove a crane to Mu's house in Biyun Mountain.

"Fellow Daoist Zhou, this is the cultivation place that our Mu family has arranged for you. If you have any explanations or needs in the future, you can explain to Ziying. Ziying lives in that courtyard over there."

In the beautiful Biyun Mountain, outside a single courtyard, Zhou Chun and two Mu family monks stood outside the courtyard, looking at the place where he would live for the next three years.

At this time, Zhou Daoquan, the third elder of the Zhou family, had already left. He also met several foundation-establishing monks and some core members of the Mu family, and he had shown his face in the Mu family.

At this time, the monk of the Mu family who introduced the situation to him was none other than Mu Yunshan, a core member of the Mu family.

Next to Mu Yunshan, a beautiful girl in a purple dress is what he calls "Ziying", and she is also one of the members of the Mu family that Zhou Chun wants to teach the art of controlling beasts.

At this time, after looking at it for a while, Zhou Chun nodded slightly to Mu Yunshan and said, "Fellow Taoist Mu, Zhou is very satisfied with this place."

Hearing this, Mu Yunshan couldn't help smiling slightly and said, "It's good that Fellow Daoist Zhou is satisfied, then the two of you will leave without disturbing Fellow Daoist Zhou's rest."

Then he left with that Mu family nun, Mu Ziying.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun immediately entered the courtyard, closed the courtyard door, then reached out and patted the spirit animal bag on his waist, and released the rock-soil turtle sleeping in it.

"Stone, this will be your new home from now on, remember not to run away from the house, or you will be served by torture!"

Looking at the rock-soil tortoise who had just arrived in a strange place and was still a little timid and confined, shrinking his head and not daring to show his whole head, Zhou Chunxian gave a warning in a stern voice.

He had to do this. When he was at Zhou's house, this guy had chewed through his courtyard gate and ran outside to have fun.

Now this is not the Zhou family. If this guy ran out and was discovered by the monks of the Mu family, he might be regarded as a monster and be killed.

Sure enough, upon hearing the word "spicy punishment", the rock-soil turtle shrank its head and completely retracted into the shell, obviously frightened.

Although it can eat and digest anything, it doesn't mean it won't be harmed by certain special foods.

And a small fruit called "spicy fruit", with its spiciness several times hotter than the hottest pepper in Zhou Chun's previous life, has become Zhou Chun's best tool for punishing and scaring rock and soil turtles.

As long as you feed this little thing a few "spicy fruits", it can make it, who doesn't like to be near the pool, directly dive into the water and gulp water.

So warn it with this, try it all.

In this way, Zhou Chun soon settled down in the Mu family.

Compared with the Zhou family, he is actually much more free in the Mu family.

Except for teaching Mu Ziying and other five Mu family monks for two hours a day, the rest of the time is at his own disposal, and he can even apply for Mu family monks to accompany him to a mortal city not far away.

It's a pity that he can't get into the Mu family's library, otherwise it would be even better.

And because he had a lot of free time, Zhou Chun simply used the extra time to practice spells in addition to his daily practice.

There are many kinds of spells in the world of cultivating immortals, but most of them are inseparable from the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, earth and the three wonders of wind, thunder and ice.

According to each person's cultivation level, spiritual root attribute, skill attribute, and understanding, the speed of practicing spells is also very different.

Zhou Chun's cultivation in the mid-stage of Qi refining is currently only suitable for practicing first-level low-level spells and first-level middle-level spells.

At the same time, because his spiritual root attribute is biased towards the three elements of metal, earth, and wood, it will be easier for him to practice metal, earth, and wood spells than other attribute spells, and the power of the spells will also be enhanced.

Now Zhou Chun has mastered [-] or [-] kinds of spells, but most of them are low-level first-level spells with very weak power.

This time he came to Mu's family as an assistant teacher. The patriarch Zhou Mingde probably guessed that he would have a lot of free time, and specially gave him a copy of "Level One Magic Practice Experience" before leaving.

It records more than 100 first-level spell cultivation methods, as well as senior monks' experience in practicing these spells.

Now that Zhou Chun was free and had time, he naturally would not let down the painstaking efforts of the patriarch Zhou Mingde. He immediately picked a few spells that were not weak and had excellent actual combat effects as training objects, and devoted himself to practicing them.

In the blink of an eye, Zhou Chun stayed at Mu's house in Biyun Mountain for half a year.

On this day, Zhou Chun was practicing a first-level middle-grade spell called "Wooden Armor Technique" in the courtyard of his residence. Xiu Mu Ziying's anxious cry.

This made him startled, he hurriedly stopped practicing, opened the door and let the person in.

"It's not good, the big thing is not good, Zhou Daoyou, hurry up and take a look, the [Black Scale Horse] in the animal garden suddenly fell to the ground, spitting blood at the mouth!"

As soon as the door opened, Mu Ziying grabbed Zhou Chun's arm tightly with a panicked expression, and pulled him to run outside.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun frowned slightly, but didn't say much, just followed him and ran all the way to the animal garden of the Mu family.

Compared with the wide variety of spirit beasts in the Zhou family, there are very few spirit beasts in the animal garden of the Mu family, only a few species.

The [Black Scale Horse] that Mu Ziying said is the most important spirit beast for the Mu family.

This [Black Scale Horse] is a walking spirit beast domesticated and improved from a first-order monster.

This beast has the body of a horse and the head of a donkey, but its body is larger than any other good horse. It is one foot six feet long and seven feet taller. Its four hooves are covered with black scales, making it look extremely tall and mighty.

[Black Scaled Horse] has a ferocious and vigilant temperament, can eat meat and grass, can climb mountains and ridges, and can also wade across rivers, traveling thousands of miles a day, avoiding wolves, tigers and leopards.

If it can be cultivated to the first-level top grade, it will be able to awaken the talent of "Wind Control", and when it gallops with four hooves carrying the wind, it can travel three thousand miles a day.

If a cultivator goes out with such a spirit beast instead of traveling, he can travel quickly without consuming his own mana, and it can even provide a lot of warning.

The Zhou family originally domesticated [-] or [-] [Black Scale Horses], but when the Sanjue Sect split, those [Black Scale Horses] were taken away by the lineage of the Spirit Beast Villa. It is ironic to say that you have to travel on your own legs.

At this time, as Mu Ziying came to the animal garden, Zhou Chun saw the eight [Black Scale Horses] of the Mu family all fell down in the animal pen, their bodies were constantly twitching, and they were spitting blood.

Several core members of the Mu family who came here after hearing the news, as well as the members of the Mu family who were in charge of taking care of these [Black Scaled Horses], were sweating profusely like ants on a hot pot at this moment.

Seeing that Mu Ziying brought Zhou Chun, Mu Yunshan, the core member of the Mu family who once received Zhou Chun, quickly stepped forward and grabbed him by the shoulder and said, "Friend Zhou, you are here. Experts, do you know what kind of disease these [Black Scaled Horses] are suffering from?"

"Mu Daoyou, don't be in a hurry, let Zhou take a look first."

As Zhou Chun said, he pushed Mu Yunshan's arm away, and walked into the animal pen with a solemn expression to check.
