Cultivating Immortals in the Family: Rising from Beast Familiarity

Chapter 21 Elixir and instruments

Although Mu Xuanfeng said it politely, he asked Zhou Chun to leave the Mu family.

But Zhou Chun didn't understand what the word "please" meant, and he didn't dare to object to his "good intentions".

So before his butt was hot in the Mu family, and he didn't even have time to say hello to Mu Ziying, Mu Yunqing and other monks of the Mu family who had a decent relationship, he was taken to Jiufengling by Mu Xuanfeng himself Zhou family.

After arriving at Jiufengling, Zhou Chun, a monk of the Zhou family, was left to wait outside the "Zhongping Hall" first.

And after waiting for nearly half an hour, he saw Zhou Daoyi, head of the Zhou family, sending Mu Xuanfeng out of the hall with a smile on his face, and only after sending him outside the mountain gate did he come back.

After returning to the "Zhongping Hall", Zhou Daoyi called Zhou Chun who was waiting outside the hall into the hall, and talked about the arrangements for him.

"Fellow Daoist Mu Xuanfeng has told me what happened to the Mu family. Zhengchun, you really worked hard this time. This seat and the family will remember your contribution to the family."

"Later, you take my token and go to Baiyao Peak to find the Great Elder to receive a bottle of [Chunyang Pill] and three bottles of [Beast Spirit Pill], which will be regarded as the family's reward for this mission."

"From now on, you should stay in the family and practice hard. If you have other tasks, I will summon you again."

This arrangement was not beyond Zhou Chun's own expectations, and it was considered a normal arrangement.

And the rewards given to him are also very good, they are all what he needs.

Immediately saluted and thanked: "Thank you, patriarch, for the reward."

Then he left Baota Peak with the token Zhou Daoyi gave him.

Afterwards, Zhou Chun didn't rush to get the elixir from Baiyao Peak where the elder of the family was, but went back to the residence above Baozhi Peak.

After not coming back for more than a year, Zhou Chun's residence has fallen a lot of dead branches and leaves, and a layer of dust has fallen on the tables and chairs.

Seeing this, he opened the door and window, pinched the magic formula in his hand, and a "dust removal technique" shook off all the dust that fell on the tables, chairs and benches, and was blown out into the yard by a breeze.

Looking at the much cleaner and brighter room like this, Zhou Chun nodded in satisfaction, closed the doors and windows again, and began to count the harvest.

He opened the storage bag that Mu Xuanfeng gave him, and poured out all the contents.

To Zhou Chun's surprise, there are quite a lot of things inside.

In addition to the few magic tools he cares about, there are also magic symbols, books, spirit coins, clothes and other things that cultivators of immortals use with them.

This shows that Mu Xuanfeng really didn't touch the contents of the storage bag at all.

"Indeed, as the head of the Mu family, this thing is nothing to him at all, so why be stingy and make people laugh!"

After Zhou Chun figured it out, he couldn't help laughing, knowing that he had a bit of a villainous heart.

Shaking his head, he immediately counted the pile of things on the ground.

I saw that besides the magic weapon, there were seven magic talismans on the ground, including five low-grade ones and two middle-grade ones.

In addition, the book is a notebook of exercises and personal cultivation experience, as well as several classics that record knowledge about elixir and monsters.

There are also 57 spirit coins.

As for the magic weapon, there are four pieces in total, which are the bamboo leaf flying magic weapon that Zhou Chun has seen, the black iron shield magic weapon, the silver-white short sword magic weapon, and a black long knife magic weapon.

Among these four magical artifacts, the bamboo leaf flying artifact is equivalent to a first-order middle-grade magical artifact, the iron shield magical artifact and short sword magical artifact are both first-order middle-grade magical artifacts, and the black long knife magical artifact is only a first-order low-grade magical artifact .

At this time, Zhou Chun checked a few magical artifacts, and immediately sacrificed three first-order middle-grade magical artifacts.

The magic weapon used by the immortal cultivator, if he wants to make it as he wants, he must first imprint his own spiritual consciousness in the magic weapon, and sacrifice it with magic power.

Zhou Chun held the three magic tools, and the imprint of the spiritual consciousness left by the original owner has been erased. It should be Mu Xuanfeng, the head of the Mu family, which saved him a lot of trouble.

Otherwise, with his seventh-level cultivation in the Qi refining period, it would take a few days of concentrated energy to erase the imprint of the spiritual consciousness of the middle-aged man in yellow.

At this time, he only needs to imprint his own spiritual consciousness in the magic weapon with the formula of sacrificing the magic weapon, and then inject his own mana to wash away the remaining breath of the previous owner in the magic weapon.

In this way, it took Zhou Chun less than two days after the sacrifice of the three magic weapons was completed.

Zhou Chun was also very satisfied with the power of the new magic weapon.

The silver short sword is extremely sharp, and it can be used to urge the sharp sword light to kill the enemy. It is not a magic weapon of the same level as it, so it is difficult to block its sharpness.

The jet-black iron shield is even more mysterious. After being sacrificially refined, it can fly back and forth to protect the body according to the owner's will. In addition to being unable to protect the whole body, the defensive power alone is much higher than the first-level mid-level spell "Vajra Shield".

The key is that as long as the magic weapon is not damaged, it can be used forever, and spells and magic symbols are all time-sensitive.

As for the flying magic weapon, because it was too conspicuous, Zhou Chun didn't dare to fly high into the sky to try it. He just found an open space outside the yard and flew a few laps, which felt very good.

The effect of this thing on him is actually greater than that of any immortal cultivator in the Qi refining period.

Because other immortal cultivators in the Qi refining period have to worry about mana consumption outside, and they dare not use this thing to fly on their way.

But he can meditate in the wild to recover his mana at will, without worrying about mana consumption.

However, it is indeed a bit eye-catching to make this object fly on the road. Zhou Chun's current cultivation level may not be enough to deter those bandit cultivators.

Therefore, the usage of this thing in his mind is still similar to that of the middle-aged man in yellow, and it is only used in certain emergency situations.

After sacrificing and trying out the newly acquired magic weapon in this way, Zhou Chun suddenly remembered that he still had one thing to do, so he hurriedly did it.

He walked into the yard with a stone jar filled with purified spiritual water, and directly fed half of the jar of purified spiritual water to the rock turtle sleeping next to the courtyard gate.

It is also interesting to say that rock turtles basically do not drink water at ordinary times, and only rely on bark and leaves to obtain water supply.

But the purified spiritual water was an exception. This kind of water that Zhou Chun didn't feel any taste when he drank it seemed to be able to taste the taste that Zhou Chun couldn't feel.

And Zhou Chun is also happy to see it succeed.

Although according to the research and comparison of the senior immortal cultivators, the monster beasts are not affected by the turbid evil spirit, which is not as great as the immortal cultivators, but they will still be affected.

Therefore, even if there are no immortal cultivators feeding various pills and spirits, the monsters that grow in places without turbidity will be faster than those in the wild, and their temperament will be much gentler, and even smarter.

Under such circumstances, generally, cultivators who have domesticated spiritual pets will try their best to prevent the spiritual pets from absorbing the aura of heaven and earth in the wild, so as not to be contaminated with evil spirits.

However, monsters have no control over this aspect compared to immortal cultivators. Even if low-level monsters are ordered by their masters, once they consume their mana with spells, they will more or less passively absorb the aura of heaven and earth to supplement and restore their mana. This is their bloodline talent. Instinct is also difficult to control.

Zhou Chun's rock and soil turtle had fought in the wild before, and naturally absorbed the spiritual energy contaminated with turbidity.

Although the amount of that turbidity is relatively small, he still doesn't want the rock turtle to be affected, so at this time, he will take the purification spirit water to get rid of the turbidity in his body.

In this way, after ensuring that the turbid air in the rock turtle's body was purified, Zhou Chun patted the head of the rock turtle, which conveyed a happy and satisfied mood to himself, and set off out of the yard.

Next, it was time to go to Baiyao Peak to receive the elixir rewarded by the patriarch Zhou Daoyi.

Baiyao Peak is located twelve miles south of Baota Peak. It is a mountain with very strong aura, second only to Baota Peak.

Compared with other peaks in Jiufengling, the soil environment of Baiyao Peak is more suitable for planting various elixir, so after the Zhou family occupied Jiufengling, they used this peak as the family's future elixir garden, and let the family grow up. Elder Zhou Mingshan sits on this peak.

As the great elder of the Zhou family, Zhou Mingshan is an old man in the Zhou family whose cultivation level is second only to the Supreme Elder Zhou Mingde, and has a very high status.

Moreover, he is currently the person with the most outstanding alchemy skills in the Zhou family. Most of the various elixirs used by Zhou family monks and beasts are from him.

It's a pity that according to Zhou Chun's knowledge, the old man of the Zhou family has very little life left, and it is very likely that he will die within ten years.

Therefore, it is usually not a particularly important matter, and members of the Zhou family rarely see this great elder leave Baiyao Peak.

Zhou Chun rushed to the top of Baiyao Peak at this time, and after reporting his intention, an alchemy apprentice who received him went to the great elder Zhou Mingshan to pass it on for him.

And when he was waiting outside the door, he also took advantage of the situation to look at the Baiyao Peak.

When the medicine field was opened up, Zhou Chun also went to Baiyao Peak to do work and dig the soil.

Now two years have passed, and those medicine fields that have been opened up have been planted with elixir seeds, and green seedlings can already be seen emerging from the soil in many medicine fields, and some fast-growing species are even more than a foot high. up.

At a glance, Zhou Chun could easily recognize common medicinal materials such as ginseng, sealwort, Radix Polygoni Multiflori, and Poria cocos.

These herbs look no different from those with the same name in the secular mortal pharmacies, but they are actually excellent spiritual seeds selected and bred by immortal cultivators. The mother plants are all high-quality hundred-year-old elixir.

After they grow in the medicine field for 30 to [-] years, they can be used as panacea for medicine, and if they grow for a hundred years, they will be a century-old panacea with extremely high value.

For any cultivator with a long history, the Spiritual Medicine Garden is one of the greatest treasures and one of the most important places.

When San Jue Sect was evacuated from Fengguo, the elixir garden, which had been passed down for thousands of years, was the priority for transfer.

But Zhou Chun now looks at the tender seedlings in the various medicine fields above Baiyao Peak, and knows in his heart that those rare elixir transferred from the Three Absolute Sect are probably controlled by those three families with golden core stage monks. Divided up.

From this point of view, although the Zhou family is nominally a cultivating family that has passed on for more than 1000 years, except for the family-passed beast-controlling technique and some classics of exercises, in terms of elixir resources and mineral vein resources, it is completely different from a new family. The established family is no different, everything has to start from scratch and accumulate again.
