Cultivation of Immortality: Start by Improving Spiritual Root Qualifications

Chapter 611: Opportunity? Crisis?
"Brother Zhou, please speak!"

Master Lei Yu looked at Zhou Xun and said,

"The human and demon races are currently in a standoff. The war has lasted for decades, and no one knows when it will end in the future."

"In this case, how can we go forward? I don't believe that the leaders are willing to let us go at this juncture!"

"We can only wait until the war is over."

“But by then, I don’t know how many of us five will be left. After all, in such a clan fight, even for us Nascent Soul cultivators, there is no 100% certainty that we can survive!”

Zhou Xun spoke slowly, if this problem is not solved, everything will be in vain!
Hearing this, Master Leiyu laughed.
"Brother Zhou is not only very capable, but also very thoughtful. I admire him!"

"As for your concerns, I have already thought about it. Although the Thunder Prison is located in a remote area, if we can take the teleportation array, we can arrive there in a few days!"

"It just so happens that I have performed a great deed before, and I have exchanged it for a chance to take the teleportation array. This way, we can return in three months at most, or one and a half months at least!"

"In such a short time, we can spend more than one retreat at a time. The three leaders will certainly not refuse!"

After saying that, Master Leiyu picked up the spiritual tea and took a sip.

Zhou Xun heaved a sigh of relief and nodded:
"Since Brother Lin has already made plans, I am relieved now. Just let me know when you leave!"

Then, the two of them discussed the way of cultivation. They were both thunder cultivators, but each had their own inheritance. Even if it did not involve the core,
Some simple contents also gave Zhou Xun a lot of insights, and the same was true for Master Leiyu.
The two of them gained more and more from their conversation, gradually forgetting the time, and only left reluctantly late at night.
They agreed to continue their conversation the next day.

After returning to the cave, Jiang Wanning had not yet rested. She was sitting in the living room.

"Greetings, sir!" Jiang Wanning bowed.

"Given our relationship, there's no need to be so polite. It would make it seem more distant!" Zhou Xun shook his head and raised his hands with an invisible force, lifting the woman up.

"Why didn't you take action today?" Zhou Xun asked again.
"Those...those are all treasures of Nascent Soul cultivators. My cultivation is low, but being able to witness such a scene is enough to comfort me in my life!"

Jiang Wanning replied.

"Well, if you have any requests, just ask. Given our relationship, how can I treat you unfairly?"

Zhou Xun persuaded,
Jiang Wanning nodded in response.
When the two first met, Zhou Xun came as a senior master and rescued her and her aunt.

She naturally looked up to him.

Several times after that, Zhou Xun seemed to have descended from heaven to earth.
Therefore, even if there were some intimate actions between the two, the time was too short after all, so such behavior was inevitable!

At this moment, a buzzing sound came from the insect room, and then a dark blue shadow flew out and sat on Zhou Xun's shoulder.
It is to attract swallowtail butterflies.

"Sir, this spirit butterfly is extremely agile!" Jiang Wanning looked around with her beautiful eyes and smiled, as if Zhou Xun's advice was very useful.
"Haha, this butterfly has already entered the third stage. If it is still so stupid, it is not worth my effort to cultivate it!"

Zhou Xun laughed out loud at this and became much more relaxed.
He immediately patted his storage bag and took out a jade bottle about an inch in size, which contained a third-level spiritual liquid.

Pull out the cork from the bottle and gently pour four drops of spiritual liquid the size of soybeans into the palm of your hand.
The swallowtail butterfly immediately felt delighted, fluttered into Zhou Xun's hands, and greedily sucked the drop of spiritual liquid.

"Young Master is not only very skilled in cultivation, but his ability to control insects is also beyond the ordinary!" Jiang Wanning was full of praise, and there was also a hint of envy in her eyes when she looked at Yin Fengdie.
Seeing the look in the beauty's eyes, Zhou Xun smiled slightly.
"Could it be that Wan Ning is also interested in the way of spiritual insects?"

"I do have some ideas!" Jiang Wanning said somewhat embarrassedly.

"Hahaha, no problem. I once got a 'Hundred Insects Sutra' which talks about the way of spirit insects. I will teach it to you now!"

“If you can cultivate some of these strange insects, you will be able to protect yourself when facing Yuanying cultivators in the future!”

As he spoke, he flipped his palm and took out two jade slips, one yellow and one green.

The yellow one contains the "Hundred Insects Sutra", and the green one is a newly made blank jade slip.

After copying it, he handed the green jade slip to Jiang Wanning.

"Although I am not a major student in this field, I have some understanding of it. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me!"

"Thank you, sir!" Jiang Wanning was overjoyed.

At this moment, the swallowtail butterfly had also finished absorbing the spiritual liquid.
"Go!"

Zhou Xun gently extended his hand.
The psionic butterfly flapped its wings, turned into a dark blue shadow, and flew into the insect room.

Not long after, Jiang Wanning also said goodbye and left, while Zhou Xun went straight to the training room.
It just so happened that Zhou Xun got a fourth-level dragon carp skin today, and he planned to refine it into a fourth-level treasure talisman paper as soon as possible.

In the training room, Zhou Xun took out a cushion and sat cross-legged!

Staring at the fourth-level dragon carp hide in front of him, it was as if he was admiring a rare treasure. Sensing the subtle spiritual fluctuations emanating from the hide,

There was a hint of joy in his eyes.
"This animal skin is full of spiritual energy and in good condition. It is indeed a rare top-grade product. I hope I can refine a few more pieces of treasure talisman paper!"

For this purpose, he specially lit a calming incense!

Meditate and regulate your breathing, adjust your energy and spirit to the peak state, then you will start,
He took a deep breath, put his hand on his waist, and held the sharp blade firmly in his hand.
The fourth-level animal hide is extremely tough, and only this extremely sharp top-grade short blade can easily cut it. Suddenly, Zhou Xun's eyes straightened.
The short blade in his hand swung, and a cold light flashed.

"laugh--"

The animal skin was evenly divided into several pieces of appropriate size, not a millimeter more or less.

After doing all this, Zhou Xun flicked his fingers, and a piece of animal skin automatically floated up and hovered in front of him. Then he quickly made hand gestures with both hands, and magic power surged through his fingertips.
In an instant, a bright yellow flame ignited on the surface of the animal skin, causing the temperature of the entire training room to soar instantly.

This is the infant fire that is unique to Nascent Soul cultivators!

Under the high temperature smelting, the animal skin began to soften slowly, and wisps of black smoke gradually emerged. These were the impurities in the animal skin.

As time went by, the animal skin began to melt and turned into a pool of crystal clear liquid. There was a faint glow, which was a manifestation of the powerful spiritual power in the animal skin.
Zhou Xun was happy in his heart, but he didn't dare to be distracted in the slightest.

I saw him dancing with his hands, his fingertips flashing with light, as if an invisible force emerged, carefully controlling the liquid.

Slowly stretching and extending, as if shaped by a pair of invisible hands,
Slowly, a talisman-like object appeared.

At this moment, Zhou Xun's eyes focused, he muttered something, and cast out magical spells, which went straight into the liquid in the shape of the talisman paper.

Finally, the liquid gradually solidified and turned into a blue-green talisman paper, with spiritual charm flowing on the surface and a little golden light flashing.
At this point, the fourth-level treasure talisman paper is refined.

Zhou Xun put it into the spirit wood box prepared in advance for safekeeping.

In the next few days, Zhou Xun not only came out of retreat to receive Master Lei Yu, but also refined the precious talisman paper. Five days passed in a flash.

There were finally thirteen finished products, which were put into a wooden box and stored in a storage bag. After collecting forty pieces, he began to make talismans.

After doing all this, Zhou Xun opened the door of the training room and strode out!

As soon as he came out, he saw Jiang Wanning sitting in the hall, with her hair tied up high and her manners dignified.
But her semi-transparent gauze skirt faintly revealed her convex and plump curves, and her ankles were as thin as lotus roots.

It made Zhou Xun's mouth dry!
What a beautiful picture of a lady!

"Young Master, you're out!" It was the first time that Jiang Wanning was dressed like this. She felt a little embarrassed and lowered her head, not daring to look Zhou Xun in the eye.

"Yes, Wan Ning's outfit today is quite unique!" Zhou Xun laughed and came to sit next to her!

"Excuse me, sir!" Hearing Zhou Xun say this, Jiang Wanning's cheeks instantly turned pink, extending to her earlobes!

So gorgeous! As he said that, he took out a set of tea sets and was about to cast a spell to make tea!

"Wait a minute!"

Zhou Xun immediately stopped her action.
"It's such a beautiful day, wouldn't it be a good idea to have some tea?" After saying that, he stood up, hugged the beauty in his arms, then carried her horizontally and strode towards the bedroom!

The next day,

Zhou Xun leaned against the bedside, feeling refreshed.

Jiang Wanning lay in Zhou Xun's arms, with a blush still lingering on her cheeks.

"Young Master bullied me again!"

"Hahaha, with a beautiful lady beside me, what a beautiful thing in the world. By the way, how is your reading of "The True Book of Hundred Insects"? " Zhou Xun laughed and then asked another question!

"I've read it roughly and am planning to go to a store in the city to buy some insect eggs!" Jiang Wanning answered honestly.

"Okay, after you buy the insect eggs, change the insect room. If you put them together with the swallowtail butterfly, I'm afraid they will become its blood food!"

Zhou Xun warned,
"By the way, if you want to buy insect eggs, you can wait for me to go with you. I have a good relationship with Shopkeeper Gao of Wuliu Pavilion, and we may be able to buy the real treasure insects of the shop!"

Jiang Wanning was overjoyed and nodded immediately!

"Thank you very much, sir!"

……

After getting up, Zhou Xun left the cave!
His destination was the library in Zhenhai Fairy City.

Since I have agreed with Master Leiyu to go treasure hunting, I naturally need to know more about this famous forbidden place, Leiyu.

The Fairy City of Zhenhai has stood in the South China Sea for thousands of years, and its library may contain records about this place.

After walking along the main road for about half a quarter of an hour, we arrived at the Zhenhai Hall. The library was behind the hall.

"I've met Elder Zhou!"

At the entrance of the hall, two guards checked the token and saluted respectfully before letting him in.

At this moment, Master Qianchuan also received the notification and came out to greet them!

"Brother Zhou, now that you are here, please come and sit in the side hall. I just got a pot of spiritual wine, let's try it together!" Zhenjun Qianchuan was very enthusiastic.

"Thank you for your kindness, Brother Fang. However, I came here today for an important matter. As for the spirit wine, how about we drink it another day?" Zhou Xun bowed and said,

"What's the matter?" asked Master Qianchuan curiously.
Even the fourth-grade spirit wine can't move him, it seems that the matter is not trivial.

"It's just a question about cultivation. I want to go to the library to take a look!" Zhou Xun stated his purpose, but did not mention a word about the key 'Thunder Prison'.

Firstly, he had promised Master Leiyu not to leak the news, and secondly, he himself did not want others to know his future plans.

"Since Brother Zhou is busy, let's do it another day!"

"As for the library, it is the seven-story tower west of Zhenhai Palace. With the elder's order, you can view all the contents inside!"

"Thank you, Brother Fang!"

The two did not chat too much. After bidding farewell to Master Qianchuan, Zhou Xun went straight to the library, a seven-story tower covering an area of ​​more than thirty feet.

Entering the first floor, an old man with white hair and beard was leaning on a recliner, holding a jade slip in his hand, reading it intently.

Sensing someone coming in, he immediately moved the jade slip aside and glanced over, sensing the magical aura of a Nascent Soul cultivator on Zhou Xun.
His face immediately changed and he stood up and bowed.

"Junior Feng Qiyu greets senior!"

"I don't know what book you want to look up, just tell me!"

"No need, I can take a look myself!" Zhou Xun waved his hand!
"Levels one to five are all classics at the Jindan level and below, and levels six and seven are Yuanying-level books!" the old man said with a smile.

"Thank you!"

After that, Zhou Xun came to the stairs and went straight up until he reached the sixth floor where he stopped. There was a layer of restriction.
There was a gleaming talisman on it, and with his attainments, he could naturally tell that it was of the middle-grade fourth level.

He took out the guest token, injected magic power into it and struck forward. Spiritual light flew out and merged into it. After a moment, a hole as tall as a person appeared, and Zhou Xun walked in.

What catches the eye are rows of wooden racks with jade slips placed on them.

According to the categories of skills, cultivation arts, secret techniques, and anecdotes,

Zhou Xun went straight to the strange news section, picked up a jade slip and began to check:
"The Travels of Fengyu records the travel experiences of Fengyu Zhenjun, an ancient Yuanying cultivator."

I took a quick look and unfortunately there is no record about the Thunder Prison!
Zhou Xun shook his head, put it down, and picked up another one.
I kept looking through more than 30 pieces of paper, but I didn't see any words about the Thunder Prison.
suddenly--

A jade slip called "A Wonderful Place in the Human World" appeared before his eyes. Zhou Xun's heart moved, and he immediately probed into his spiritual sense to check.

Sure enough, there are records of Thunder Prison.

After a long while, Zhou Xun raised his head with an inexplicable look on his face.

"It turns out that this Thunder Prison has existed since ancient times and is recognized as one of the seven forbidden areas in the human world. This place contains rich thunder spiritual power. If thunder cultivators can practice here, their speed will be several times faster than in the outside world."

"It's a pity that there seems to be some kind of taboo in it. Human monks can't stay in it for too long!"

"At the same time, this place is full of dangers. It is said that more than one great monk went there to explore and lost contact!"

"In addition, there are also great opportunities contained in it. There have been low-level cultivators who came out of it and soared to the sky, and there are also many who became great cultivators through it!"

Seeing this, Zhou Xun couldn't help but think of Master Leiyu, who was in the same situation!

"More importantly, this Thunder Prison is actually related to the ancient Thunder Sect!"

Zhou Xun's eyes were burning.

You know, the "Purple Night Thunder Art" he is practicing now comes from this sect.

Their Tianyu Sect in Donghuang and the ruins discovered in the Tianyuan Secret Realm last time all originated from this sect!

"It seems that we have to go to this Thunder Prison!"

Zhou Xun had a hunch that his trip to the Thunder Prison this time might not be that simple.

Then, Zhou Xun continued to check, but unfortunately, apart from this one, he did not find any other records about the Thunder Prison.

So he left the library and walked towards his cave.

As soon as he stepped into the gate, he saw Chi Wu coming up to him with a happy look on his face.
"Congratulations, my lord. A Yuanying Zhenjun just came to visit us. He came here to ask you to customize amulets for me!"
