Cultivation of Immortality: Start by Improving Spiritual Root Qualifications

Chapter 563 Goodbye, Master Tieshan!

Tianfu Island Qianfu Zhenren Cave Mansion,
"Brother Dao has finally returned after going out this time!" Master Qian Fu showed a look of relief.

During the time Zhou Xun was away, he was under a lot of pressure!

Without Zhou Xun as his backer, even his position as the leader would be somewhat unstable.

After all, he could have his current status entirely thanks to Zhou Xun's support. The Jindan elders from other sects have been coveting his position as the leader for a long time.

Then he asked carefully:
"Brother Dao, you should not go out again after you come back this time!"

Seeing Cao Feiyu like this, Zhou Xun couldn't help but laugh, but he could also understand the pressure he was under.

So he smiled and said comfortingly:
"Don't worry, after I leave this time, I won't leave again for decades!"

Upon hearing this, Master Qian Fu was overjoyed.

"That's great! During the time you were away, I was terrified!"

"Oh, is there anyone who dares to bully our disciples of Tianfu Island?" Zhou Xun said in surprise.

"Of course not, but the demon tribe organized another attack during this period. Fortunately, with the help of Senior Tieshan Zhenjun, we were able to repel them!" Zhenren Qianfu replied.

"Brother Tieshan is here to take charge. Unless the demon tribe sends several fourth-order great demons at once, there will be no problem for us!"

Immediately, Zhou Xun turned his gaze towards Li Daniu and Wen Yue, and said with concern:
"Have you adapted to your stay here during this period?"

"This place is great, much better than where we were before, thanks to big brother for the recommendation!"

Wen Yue bowed and spoke slowly.

"That's good. You two should practice well here. Although the confrontation between humans and demons has calmed down a bit in recent years,

"But when I went to Zhenhai Immortal City, I found that the number of monks was increasing. It was obvious that the two sides had only temporarily stopped fighting."

"Everyone is continuing to gather strength. There will definitely be another battle in the future, and this battle will definitely be far greater than the previous ones!"

"Maybe this will be the decisive battle that determines the future of the South Sea cultivation world!"

"Under this great trend, you and I are both ants. We can only try our best to improve our cultivation before this happens!"

Zhou Xun recalled the scene he saw in Zhenhai Fairy City and immediately sighed.

Of course, for Zhou Xun, if things really reached the point of no return, he could still retreat to the secret realm.

"Thanks for the reminder, big brother!"

Upon hearing this, Master Qianfu and the other two became more solemn and expressed their gratitude one after another.

This kind of information is extremely rare. If we can know it in advance, we will have the opportunity to make arrangements in advance, and maybe we can save their lives at some point in the future.

Next, several people continued to feast.

During this time, Zhou Xun discussed with the three some tips and taboos in cultivation.
Although the three of Qian Fu Zhenren were only at the early stage of Jindan,
But being able to cultivate to the stage of Jindan naturally has its own unique aspects to cultivation, and with the mutual reflection, it is also of great help to Zhou Xun.

In the evening, after the banquet, Zhou Xun returned to his cave.

Return to the cave and come to the spiritual spring in front of the hall.
As the exclusive cave of the great elder of Tianfu Island, the place where it is located is naturally the spiritual eye of Tianfu Island.

Therefore, there is a natural spiritual spring here.

Zhou Xun plans to transform this place into a habitat for "swallowtail butterflies".

After all, the Spirit Eye Spring can be considered spiritual fluid in a sense, but its level and spiritual purity are lower.
But it is also suitable as a place for swallowtail butterflies to live all year round.

With a wave of his hand, a third-level middle-grade Lingyuan vine appeared in his hand. After a simple weaving, a nest of three or four inches in size was formed.
“Although it’s a little ugly, it’s good enough!”

Zhou Xun laughed at himself, and then placed it above the Spirit Eye Spring, and then patted the Spirit Insect Bag on his waist.
With a flash of light, a blue shadow flew out and flew around Zhou Xun happily.
Then it landed on Zhou Xun's fingertips and transformed into a two-inch-tall spirit butterfly with a dark blue body, slowly flapping its wings.

Zhou Xun stroked it gently with his fingers, and then gave orders, letting it live in the nest above the spiritual spring.

The swallowtail butterfly fluttered over and landed on the small nest that Zhou Xun had woven.
Then, a hint of joy came from the swallowtail butterfly, and it was obvious that it was extremely satisfied.

Seeing this, Zhou Xun couldn't help but shook his head.
I don’t know what kind of environment this swallowtail butterfly lived in before, but it is so happy even for this ordinary Spirit Eye Spring!
With a sigh, Zhou Xun sent out a sound transmission note, asking Luo Yuancheng to send a batch of second-level spiritual liquid.

Although this spirit butterfly has an extraordinary origin, it is now just a larva, equivalent to a foundation-building cultivator among humans.

It still needs to be cultivated slowly.

In addition, Zhou Xun's Thousand-Engine Insect can also be cultivated.
If the Qianying cicada can be cultivated to maturity, it will be ranked ninth on the list of alien insects!

However, it is now being nurtured by Song Yiqing.

"Well, I'll bring this Hundred Insects Manual back next time!"

Soon, Luo Yuancheng arrived!
"Greetings, real person!" Luo Yuancheng bowed respectfully!
With a sweep of his divine sense, he saw Luo Yuancheng's situation and gave him a slight approval.

"Well, that's good. You haven't slacked off during this period. I think you will be able to enter the ninth level of foundation building soon!"

"They were all cultivated by real people!" Luo Yuancheng said respectfully, then took out five jade bottles and placed them in front of Zhou Xun.

"Here are all the second-level spiritual liquids stored in the sect's storehouse. There are five types in total!"

"Yeah!" Zhou Xun nodded, waved his hand, and all five jade bottles flew up and flew to the spiritual spring with Zhou Xun.

Luo Yuancheng then looked over and saw an extremely beautiful dark blue butterfly flying up and landing in Zhou Xun's palm. He couldn't help but marvel at it.

"This is what I got during my trip, it's called 'Swallowtail Butterfly Attracting'!" As if noticing Luo Yuancheng's gaze, he immediately explained,
Then he picked up a jade bottle and pulled out the cork.

Suddenly a fragrance emanated.
Upon hearing this, the swallowtail butterfly nearby flapped its wings excitedly. Zhou Xun smiled slightly and slowly poured a drop of spiritual liquid into the palm of his hand!
The spirit butterfly immediately stretched out its mouthparts, reached into the drop of spiritual liquid, and began to suck greedily.

In a short while, it had sucked up all the soybean-sized spiritual liquid, and the spirit butterfly also expressed a satisfied emotion.

"go with!"

Zhou Xun gave it a gentle push, and the spirit butterfly immediately flew back to its nest and began to digest the spiritual liquid!
Zhou Xun put the cork back in the bottle, then looked at Luo Yuancheng who was standing beside him. He clapped his hands, took out a dark blue token, and threw it over.

Luo Yuancheng took the token in his hand with a puzzled look on his face, not knowing the purpose of Zhou Xun's visit.

"This is my cave's deputy token. It gives you the authority to enter my cave. In the future, you must come here every month and feed this 'Swallowtail Butterfly' a drop of second-level spiritual liquid!"

Zhou Xun ordered.

This token was specially made by him and has the authority to enter the cave hall.

According to the Hundred Insects Sutra, to cultivate a swallowtail butterfly, you need to feed it a drop of spiritual liquid every month.
As Zhou Xun often stayed in seclusion for several years, naturally, this matter had to be done by someone else.

Luo Yuancheng has been serving him for decades, working diligently and meticulously, which has won Zhou Xun's admiration.

Only then did I hand this matter over to him!
"Yes, I will definitely live up to your instructions!" Luo Yuancheng bowed and said yes!

"By the way, feeding the swallowtail butterfly will inevitably affect your cultivation. Here is a bottle of Essence Pill, which is suitable for cultivators in the late stage of foundation building. Take it as your reward!"

Zhou Xun said lightly, then took out a medicine bottle and threw it to Luo Yuancheng!

"Thank you for the reward!" Luo Yuancheng hurriedly thanked him.
Although Essence Pills are rare, he is the Jindan seed of Tianfu Island and a direct disciple of Master Qianfu, so naturally he will not be short of this thing.

Luo Yuancheng was a little confused as to why Senior Wang gave him this elixir, but he could not refuse a gift from an elder, so he accepted it anyway!
"Open it and take a look!" Zhou Xun smiled, as if he saw Luo Yuancheng's doubts.

Luo Yuancheng immediately pulled out the cork from the bottle, and then an amazing medicinal fragrance came out.

"All of these are fine elixirs!"

Luo Yuancheng exclaimed, and then his face was filled with ecstasy!

Not only are high-quality elixirs more potent, but more importantly, they contain very little toxicity, which means he can take them continuously within a short period of time.

With this bottle of elixir, the time it takes him to cultivate to the peak of foundation building can be saved by at least half!
"Haha, go back and practice well, and don't forget to feed my swallowtail butterfly!"

Zhou Xun immediately sent Luo Yuancheng away!

The next morning, Zhou Xun did not continue to stay on Tianfu Island.
His destination was the Ringless Island guarded by Master Tieshan.

Zhou Xun clasped his hands together, flashed, and appeared above Tianfu Island.

Then he patted the spirit beast bag,

A flash of light appeared, and it transformed into a strange monster over ten feet in size, with a tiger head and a leopard body, and two wings on its back. It floated in front of Zhou Xun.

It was his mount, the Earth Beast!
"I've met the master!"

Feng Zhong lowered his head, his attitude extremely respectful, like an old servant who had served for many years.

At this moment, the Diyuan Beast was in high spirits, and his aura was even stronger. It seemed that the inner elixir he received last time had benefited him a lot.

"Lao Feng, you have made great progress!"

Zhou Xun jumped lightly and landed on the head of the Earth Beast, saying with a smile.

"I have to thank the master for his cultivation!"

What Diyuan Beast said was indeed what he really thought.

If he hadn't followed Zhou Xun, how could he have advanced to the upper third level so quickly? Even if he was close to the peak of the third level, his progress was considerable!
Otherwise, if I only rely on myself, I would probably still be stuck at the middle level of the third rank, and would not be as successful as I am today!

His original dream was to advance to the third level and become a great demon king.

Now, he feels that becoming a fourth-level Demon King is not impossible!
"Let's go to the ringless island!"

Zhou Xun gave a light instruction, and then took out the book on the secret method of "Sword Formation" given to him by Wang Erniu and began to study it.

"Yes!"

Feng Dian nodded, flapped his wings, and immediately turned into a gust of breeze, rushing towards the direction of the ringless island.

In less than half a day, an island came into view.

"Hahaha, Brother Zhou, you're a little late!"

At this moment, a tall, bald old man flew out from the island and landed in front of Zhou Xun.
