Cultivating Immortals in the Family: Rising from Beast Familiarity

Chapter 9 Nine Peaks Ridge

Zhou Chun didn't understand the meaning of Zhou Fei's words at first.

But when an old man in red from the Zhou family arrived at the scene riding a red flamingo, he understood what Zhou Fei meant.

Because this red-clothed old man is the foundation-building elder of the Zhou family, he ranks third among the current three elders of the Zhou family.

The elder named Zhou Quan rushed to the scene, and after learning about the situation from Zhou Fei, he immediately reached out and patted the spirit beast bag on his waist with cold eyes, and released a yellow-brown spirit pet like a groundhog from it. .

Then he gave a few instructions to the spiritual pet, and the spiritual pet ran to the place where the casual cultivators had been before and started to sniff.

After a while, the little thing screamed at Zhou Quan, and then turned into a yellow phantom and rushed into the forest.

Seeing this, Zhou Quan immediately ordered Zhou Fei and the others: "Go back to your family and report the situation to the patriarch, and the old man will go and kill those clumsy rats!"

Then he drove his second-order monster, Flamingo, and followed it up.

This is because the Zhou family migrated from another country, and the local casual cultivators didn't know what they were up to, so they dared to be so stupid as to attack the Zhou family's children near the Zhou family's mountain gate.

Changing to Fengguo's loose cultivators, after hearing about the name of the Zhou family of the Three Absolute Sect, they would definitely not dare to ambush the Zhou family's children near the Zhou family's mountain gate without being completely sure of killing them.

Because the idiots who dared to do this in the past all eventually became the spiritual pet rations domesticated by Zhou family monks.

At this time, seeing Zhou Quan flying on a crane disappearing over the forest, Zhou Fei quickly came to his senses, waved to Zhou Chun and the others and said, "Let's go, let's go back to the family first, and the third elder will take action in person. That stupid thief must be dead!"

So the group continued to move forward along the established route. After advancing for more than 70 miles, they finally arrived at Jiufengling, where the Zhou family's current mountain gate is located.

Located in the depths of the mountains, Jiufengling is a beautiful place composed of nine beautiful peaks. It stretches for more than [-] miles from east to west, and [-] to [-] miles from north to south.

Originally, this place was the lair of a group of casual cultivators in Lanzhou. On the nine peaks, there was a casual cultivator at the foundation establishment stage sitting in town, and another two to three hundred casual cultivators at the Qi refining stage lived and practiced here for a long time.

After the Sanjue Gate was dismantled, the Zhou family, who had nowhere to go, quickly set their sights on this place.

After some investigation and investigation, knowing that this group of casual cultivators had nothing to do with those big sects and families, the Zhou family marched to Jiufeng Ridge and forcibly occupied this treasured place for cultivation.

At this time, less than three months had passed since the battle involving hundreds of immortal cultivators, and traces of the battle could still be seen in many places inside and outside Jiufengling.

For example, the burned mountain forests, and the peaks of some mountains were destroyed.

According to Zhou Yong's dictation, in that battle, although the Zhou family had Zifu period monks sitting in the town and many second-order spirit beasts comparable to foundation building monks to help out, they paid the price of more than a dozen clan members dying in battle. win.

The area where Jiufengling is located in Zhou Chun's sight now, at a glance, he can only see the white fog of the formation, and he cannot see the real scenery inside clearly.

Led by Zhou Fei, the group of them walked around the area for a while, and arrived outside the mouth of a valley between two mountains.

When they got here, without them saying anything, the monks of the Zhou family who guarded the entrance and exit gate in the mist of the valley had already recognized Zhou Fei and Zhou Yong, greeted them, and asked about Zhou Chun's origin.

After getting Zhou Fei's explanation, Zhou Jingwen and Zhou Yong also testified.

The Zhou family monk inside quickly manipulated the formation, causing the formation fog leading to the valley to surge, revealing a passage for two people to walk side by side.

The four of them walked less than a hundred feet along the passage, and suddenly their eyes opened up, and they could see clearly the world inside without any hindrance.

I saw that in the heaven and earth in this formation, there are nine spiritual peaks of different heights distributed in the southeast, northwest, and dozens of small hills, large and small, guarding them.

Forests, streams, lakes, waterfalls, deep pools, grasslands, mountain streams, deep valleys...

All kinds of topography and landforms can be found in this small world.

In the mountain forest, you can see the figures of apes playing in the treetops, and you can also see the vigorous posture of tigers and leopards when they are running and jumping.

Beside the stream, there are deer, sheep, cows, horses and other beasts quietly gnawing on the green grass, and there are black bears playing and fishing in the water.

Inside the lake, there are giant tortoises floating on the water to bask on their backs.

Under the waterfall, several blue-black giant pythons that looked very scary wrapped their bodies around the stone pillar-like reef, letting the rapids wash away, seeming to enjoy it very much.

On the grass, there were juveniles from the Zhou family who looked like they were underage, chasing and playing with giant wolves, and there were girls holding a white fox that was bigger than themselves to comb their fur and catch insects.

On the edge of a secluded lake, two old men from the Zhou family used stones as a chessboard, and they were holding black and white sons to fight each other. Wrestling head to head with another green bull monster.

Looking at these scenes, Zhou Chun quickly fell in love with this place after the initial discomfort.

People and nature are so harmoniously blended, animals and people are so harmoniously coexisting, such a place can purify the soul and make people feel extremely relaxed.

Before coming to this world, this kind of place, this kind of life, is the place that office workers like Zhou Chun dream of, a place that can only exist in fantasy.

"Brother Chun, don't think about it too much. Although this place is not comparable to the Sanjuemen Mountain Gate we used to have in Fengguo, it belongs to our Zhou family exclusively. Worse!"

Walking among the roadless mountains and forests, Zhou Yong saw Zhou Chun walking all the way, and he seemed to be in a bad mood. He thought that he was disappointed with the situation in Jiufengling, so he quickly comforted him.

Seeing that he had a misunderstanding, Zhou Chun shook his head again and again and said, "No, Brother Yong, you are too worried. This place is very good, very good, and I am very satisfied!"

"Hahaha, as long as you are satisfied, as long as you are satisfied."

Zhou Fei, who was leading the way, burst out laughing when he heard what Zhou Chun said, obviously satisfied with his answer.

In this way, the group of them walked for another quarter of an hour before they finally arrived at the main peak of Jiufengling, which is where the head of the Zhou family works, Baota Peak.

Pagoda Peak, just like its name, looks like a circular pagoda standing on the ground.

It is more than 470 feet high, with towering ancient trees and rich aura on the mountain peak. It is the best place for practicing in Jiufengling.

Climbing from the foot of the mountain to the side of the mountain along a mountain road opened up, the line of sight suddenly widened, and a palace attic built next to the mountain appeared.

Before Zhou Chun had a good look at these palace attics, Zhou Fei led the way and led them into the hall where the plaque of "Zhongping Hall" was hung.

Soon, Zhou Chun met Zhou Guyi, the patriarch of the Zhou family, in the depths of the hall.

Like most sects and families, the patriarch of the Zhou family is not the person with the highest cultivation.

Zhou Guyi's cultivation base is only in the middle stage of foundation establishment.

But he became the patriarch of the Zhou family as early as when the Sanjue Sect was still there.

For the Zhou family's children like Zhou Fei and Zhou Chun, this patriarch is more awe-inspiring than the current Zifu Qi Taishang elder.

I saw that the head of the Zhou family had a strong figure, a resolute face, and a majestic demeanor. He could tell at a glance that he was a person who had been in high position for a long time.

After waiting for Zhou Fei and the others to salute, he was not in a hurry to ask about Zhou Chun. He just asked Zhou Fei to report on the investigation in Hongyafang City, and took over the handbook written by Zhou Fei for reading.

After reading the manual in less than a quarter of an hour, he put down the manual, nodded lightly and said: "You guys have done a good job in this matter, and I will record the relevant achievements for you."

Then he turned his gaze, looked at Zhou Chun and said, "Now tell me about your affairs. If I remember correctly, your name is Zhou Chun, right? You were supposed to be working in the Leopard Garden?"

As the head of the Zhou family, he has already memorized the names, appearances and whereabouts of the adult monks of the Zhou family.

Not long after meeting Zhou Chun just now, he had already recalled relevant information about Zhou Chun, and there was no need for Zhou Fei and others to introduce him.

At this time, when he heard that he brought the topic to himself, Zhou Chun quickly responded respectfully: "The patriarch has sharp eyes, and this junior is Zhou Chun."

Then he took the initiative to tell how he fled from Fengguo all the way to Yasukuni, and how he met Zhou Fei and others.

It's just that the part about falling out with Li Han, a monk of the Li family, was also omitted, and it was changed to two people going their separate ways after hearing the news of the split of the Three Absolute Sect halfway.

His description of nine truths and one falsehood is naturally not afraid of Zhou Guyi's exposure, and he also believes that Zhou Guyi will not delve into this matter.

Sure enough, Zhou Guyi only praised and praised him for his escape experience, praising his determination to return to the family without fear of hardships and obstacles, so he didn't ask more about it.

Instead, after watching him ponder for a while, he nodded lightly and said: "The family has just established a mountain gate, and it is full of waste. It is just the time when people are needed. Zhou Chun, you are not afraid of difficulties and obstacles, and you will return after going through hardships." The family, with this affection and intention, deserves to be commended."

"Since the spirit pet you originally cultivated has died, this rock-soil turtle spirit egg will be given to you as a new spirit pet to cultivate. I hope you can cherish and make good use of this thing, and serve your family well in the future!"

After speaking, he raised his hand and patted a storage bag on his waist, took out a white jade box from it and handed it to Zhou Chun.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun immediately became overjoyed and overjoyed.

He held the jade box with both hands, and immediately bowed to Zhou Guyi with a joyful face and said, "Thank you for the reward from the patriarch. From now on, this junior will do his best to serve the family and live up to the love of the patriarch and the family."

"Okay, you can go to Baozhi Peak to practice next. Regarding the current situation of my Zhou family and the rules that need to be followed in the family, you can inquire about it from Zhou He, the peak master of Baozhi Peak."

After Zhou Guyi finished speaking, he waved his hand lightly, indicating that the few people can leave.

Seeing this, Zhou Fei and the others hurriedly saluted and left the place.
