Cultivation of Immortality: Start by Improving Spiritual Root Qualifications

Chapter 617 Zhou Xun: I made the right decision this time!
When everyone heard this, they were all shocked!
Great monk, this is a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage. There are only eleven of them in the entire Central Continent cultivation world.

More importantly, although the five of them have extremely high cultivation levels, they are still a long way from being able to compete with the great monks.

And such a strong man fell here.
This also means that they are very likely to suffer the same fate.

Master Lei Yu frowned and said in a deep voice: "For a great cultivator to die, this place must be extremely dangerous. The corpse of the monster is definitely not ordinary. I wonder what kind of monster it is."

"At least it's top grade four!" Master Xuan Lei replied.

Hearing this, everyone became more alert.
Zhou Xun continued to investigate, and suddenly he found that the bones of this human elder were slightly black, which meant that he had been poisoned before his death.
Then he carefully examined the corpse of the monster and saw cracks on its bones. It seemed that it had suffered an extremely strong attack before and was seriously injured.

At this time Zhou Xun had a guess:
"Could it be that this human elder fought a great battle with this demon king, and then both perished and died!"

"It's very likely. Otherwise, we have been here for so long, the owner of the nest should have come out!" Master Leiyu nodded, agreeing with Zhou Xun's speculation.

"What's strange is that I didn't see this senior's storage bag and magic weapon. Even if he unfortunately died, the treasures should still be there!" Zhou Xun asked in confusion.

"Maybe they were beaten to it by other cultivators!" Master Hongchuan sighed. This made sense.

The huge Thunder Prison has been extremely famous since ancient times. Countless cultivators have entered this place, so it is normal for some people to get there first.

"Since there is nothing to worry about, let's leave as soon as possible!" Master Xuan Lei nodded.

"Okay, I'll take action immediately after I collect and bury the body of this senior!" Zhou Xun said, waving his hand.
The scattered stones on the ground began to fly up, and under his control, they flew over the corpses of the human race.
And then a little bit,
The rocks fell one after another, completely covering the bones of this powerful human being and forming a simple grave.

"Please rest here, senior!" Everyone bowed to show their condolences.

After doing this, several people prepared to leave.

However, when they saw the dozens of passages in the stone chamber, they were confused for a moment and didn't know which one to choose.
At this moment, Zhou Xun's heart moved and he said:

"Why don't you let me do some divination? I've learned the art of divination before, maybe it can help you!"

Everyone was overjoyed when they heard this,

"Brother Zhou is indeed a person that Alliance Leader Yu values ​​very much. He even knows such a rare skill as divination. This way, we won't have to worry about not being able to find a way out!"

Master Xuan Lei laughed loudly, and the other three also looked relaxed.

All of this stems from the magic and power of divination.

In ancient times, there was a monk called "Buluo Tianjun". He was famous for his divination skills and was known for "knowing everything in the world!"
Good or bad fortune, everything is accurate!

It is precisely because of this skill that this ancient great being can move forward very steadily and cautiously at every stage of cultivation.
With the middle-grade spiritual root qualification, he achieved the state of incarnation!

At this point, the status of the art of divination has greatly increased, but this art is rarely passed down, and it is extremely difficult to get started, so it is extremely rare.

In the vast land of Zhongzhou, there are only a few dozen people who can perform this technique.

Zhou Xun reached for the storage bag on his waist.
A flash of inspiration appeared in front of him, transforming into a compass-shaped treasure!

"Small Bu Tian Compass!"

Then Zhou Xun muttered something, made hand gestures, and pointed at the compass.
A ray of spiritual light flew out and merged in!

After a moment, the compass flashed and showed a golden arrow.

Everyone looked in that direction and it was the one to the northwest.

I was overjoyed.

"Let's leave quickly!" After Master Xuan Lei said this, he walked towards the passage, and the others followed him.
Just as they were about to step into the passage.

"squeak--"

A faint voice was heard, followed by a violent aura of spiritual energy approaching rapidly!

"Oh no, there's a monster!"

The Thunder Prison Master who was walking at the back shouted loudly and threw his hand forward.
A black seal quickly enlarged to a size of several feet, blocking him.

"Ding--"

Immediately afterwards, a metallic collision sound was heard.

"What is this?" Xuanchen Zhenjun exclaimed.

In front of the black seal, a monster about four or five feet long and six or seven feet in diameter appeared.
This monster has a ferocious head, bloodshot eyes, and a body as hard as iron, covered with lightning patterns and flashes of lightning.

Judging from the aura it exudes, it has reached the fourth-grade intermediate level!
"It is most likely the descendant of the owner of the demon skeleton in the stone chamber!" Zhou Xun guessed.
The shape of this monster is exactly the same as that of the corpse, except that it is a little smaller.

"Everyone, attack together. This monster is not easy to deal with. The previous attack caused serious damage to my Black Willow Seal!" Lei Yu Zhenjun said hurriedly.

When everyone heard this, they all took action.
Zhou Xun raised his hand and scattered.
Nine thunder seeds flew out and turned into nine lightning chains that intertwined together to form a large net that covered the centipede-shaped monster!
Master Xuan Lei activated his true body and rushed forward. The others also used their own methods to attack the monster.

The magic weapon is shining and various colorful lights are flying!
The monster seemed to feel the strong pressure from everyone.

But it did not retreat. Instead, it let out an angry roar, and the two tentacles on its head lit up. Suddenly, a lightning shield with intricate runes appeared in front of it!

"boom!"

A loud noise was heard, and it turned out that all the attacks from several people were blocked!

The huge aftermath caused the rubble around the stone chamber to fall down.

"As expected of a creature from the Thunder Prison, it's truly extraordinary!" Zhou Xun secretly praised.

Then he formed seals with his hands, and a thick bolt of lightning shot out from his palms and hit over. Others also changed their methods!
The monster remained fearless, with lightning patterns flashing on its body. Bolts of lightning struck back and collided with the attacks of everyone, erupting in a strong light and roar.

Sand and rocks flew in the stone chamber, and spiritual energy fluctuated violently.

For a moment, there was a stalemate!
Xuan Lei Zhenjun was furious when he saw this. If it was a fourth-level upper-grade monster, it would be fine, but a mere fourth-level middle-grade monster actually resisted the combined efforts of five people.

His face was as gloomy as water, and his voice was low:

"I will use my true body of Xuan Lei to capture this creature and trap him. Everyone, do not be stingy with your fighting power and use your strongest means to kill him with one strike!"

After saying that, he clasped his hands together and pointed towards himself.
Thunder and lightning struck.

Xuan Lei Zhenjun transformed into a lightning giant about 40 to 50 meters tall, with lightning flashing around his body, just like the god of thunder descending to the world.

In his left hand he held a long lightning whip, with lightning flashing.

"kill!"

With a light shout, Master Xuan Lei turned into a streak of lightning and rushed over. At the same time, he swung the thunder whip in his left hand fiercely, as powerful as a meteor! Seeing this, the centipede monster was furious and screamed sharply, echoing in the stone chamber, making people extremely uncomfortable!
At the same time, the two tentacles on its head continued to emit light.

Bolts of lightning appeared out of nowhere and struck Master Xuan Lei, illuminating the entire stone chamber like daylight, turning it into a world of thunder and lightning!

What a great thunder centipede!
Zhou Xun secretly praised in his heart,

But his hands were not slow. At the same time when Master Xuan Lei rushed out,

With a flip of his hand, the Xuan Ting Thunder Sword appeared in his hand, and then he threw it lightly.

It flew into the air, turned into a three-foot-long shape, and hovered in front of him, with arcs of lightning flashing around it!

"Sword Shadow Becomes One"

Then he put his hands together and shouted softly,
Magic power surged at the fingertips, and a ray of spiritual light shone on the Xuan Ting Thunder Sword and struck out!

Suddenly, sword lights appeared out of nowhere and surrounded Zhou Xun's body. When he counted carefully, there were eighty-one of them!
Then Zhou Xun's magic formula changed.
These sword lights were like birds returning to their nests, one by one, beginning to slowly merge into the Xuan Ting Thunder Sword. With every merge, the power of the Thunder Sword increased!
Then, the eighty-one sword lights all merged together.

The entire lightning sword became extremely bright, like a lightsaber.
The sword body was also trembling slightly, making a faint humming sound, ready to be fired at any time!
On the other side, True Lord Xuan Lei was also extremely extraordinary. Under the attack of the Thunder Centipede, he did not retreat but advanced, and headed forward against the lightning.

In an instant, he came to the side of the Thunder Centipede.

With a whip, the four or five-meter-long thunder centipede was bound in circles.

At the same time, he closed his arms and hugged the fourth-level middle-grade monster.

After being hit by this attack, the Thunder Centipede became flustered, and even its breath became a little disordered!
"Quick, take action!"

Lord Leiyu shouted loudly at Zhou Xun and others!

Zhou Xun also noticed this, and smiled slightly at the timid Lei Centipede.
At this time, Xuan Ting was also trembling slightly, making a faint humming sound, as if he was excited about the next attack.
Looking at the Thunder Centipede trapped by Master Xuan Lei,

"go with!"

Zhou Xun nodded gently towards him.
The Xuan Ting Thunder Sword instantly turned into a purple light, cutting through space and shooting forward!

Sensing this,

The Thunder Centipede was horrified and twisted its body wildly, but it was too late!
The lightning sword was extremely fast, and in an instant it was three feet above the Thunder Centipede's head.
"Pfft-"

There was a sound of metal penetrating flesh, and the three-foot-long lightning sword pierced through the Thunder Centipede's head. The huge force lifted its body up.

He and Master Xuan Lei flew backwards together and were nailed hard on the stone wall.

The strong vibration caused the gravel in the stone chamber to fall down, stirring up clouds of dust!
"it is good!"

Master Xuan Lei praised loudly, and sensing the Thunder Centipede that had softened in his arms, he knew that the monster was dead!
"I never thought that Brother Zhou, in addition to that stunning spear move, also had such swordsmanship skills. No wonder Alliance Leader Yu admired him so much!"

He knew the power of the sword just now, and he thought that if he wanted to block it, he would have to pay a huge price.

The others were also greatly shocked.

Everyone thought that Zhou Xun's previous move to kill the Earth Spirit Beast King was his all-out attack, but who would have thought that he could come up with a second move!
It seems that they had underestimated Zhou Xun before.

The strength he has demonstrated now is probably not much inferior to that of Master Xuan Lei!

At the same time, everyone's eyes were focused on Zhou Xun, full of amazement and admiration.

Zhou Xun looked calm, as if the stunning attack just now was just an ordinary thing.

At this moment, the smoke and dust in the stone chamber gradually dissipated, and the huge body of the Thunder Centipede hung limply on the stone wall. The Xuan Ting Thunder Sword still emitted traces of lightning, as if announcing the victory of the battle.

Master Xuan Lei slowly loosened his arms and looked at the Thunder Centipede which had no breath left, feeling a sense of emotion in his heart.

He glanced at Zhou Xun, then glanced at everyone and said:

"In this battle just now, Fellow Daoist Zhou should be the first to make the contribution. He should be the first to select the treasures on this Thunder Centipede. Do you have any opinions?"

"No, Brother Zhou killed the Thunder Centipede and is the first choice. Brother Xuan Lei trapped the monster, which is the second merit and he is the second choice!"

"As for the rest, we three can divide it up!" Master Hongchuan suggested.

Upon hearing this, True Lord Leiyu and True Lord Xuanchen also nodded without objection.

"The shell of this monster is extremely tough. It would be very difficult to cut it apart!" Looking at the corpse of the monster, Master Xuan Lei smiled bitterly.

"Now is the time to harvest. The more difficult it is to deal with this monster, the greater the harvest will be. This is what we are looking for!" said Master Hongchuan with a smile.
The others also laughed, not feeling impatient at all because of the slow progress of splitting the demon's body.
Speaking of which, if Zhou Xun took out the sharp blade, it should be much easier to split it.
But he had already exposed the Thunder Spear, the Jun Spear, and the Mysterious Thunder Sword. If he took out a treasure like the Sharp Blade, it would inevitably attract people's covetousness.
After all, the five of them were only temporarily gathered together, and Zhou Xun was not familiar with them before. After showing off his skills,
You also need to hide some cards!

Soon, Master Xuanchen finished splitting up the Thunder Centipede.
Zhou Xun took its inner elixir without hesitation.

This is a fourth-order middle-grade demon beast inner elixir, and it also has thunder attributes. It is an excellent aid for cultivation.
Apart from these, the most precious thing is the fist-sized crystal stone on the monster’s head. It seems that there is lightning lava flowing inside it, which is extremely extraordinary!

It was taken into the possession of True Lord Xuan Lei, while the rest such as the tentacles, shell and demon soul were divided among True Lord Lei Yu and the other two.

After distributing the treasures, everyone took a short break.
Then continue to move forward towards the previously selected passage.

This time, it was the same formation as before, with True Lord Xuan Lei using his true body to lead the way, and True Lord Lei Yu following behind.

Should I say or not,

As the one with the highest cultivation among all, Master Xuan Lei has such a sense of responsibility, which is enough to show that he is a trustworthy person!
This passage was similar to the previous one, only about ten feet in size. But what puzzled everyone was that after they walked forward for a thousand feet, it turned straight down.

"Why did it go underground? Do we need to go deeper underground before going up?" asked Master Hongchuan doubtfully.

"No matter what, we just move forward. There is a faint breeze flowing through this passage, which obviously means it is connected!" said Master Xuan Lei.

With their combination, even if they encounter a fourth-level high-quality monster, they can deal with it.

Moreover, after seeing Zhou Xun's strength, Master Xuan Lei became even more confident.

In this way, the crowd slowly walked down for a full ten thousand feet.
However, as they turned a corner,

There was a blue-purple light coming from the front.

"What is this?" Everyone was shocked.
When they arrived at the source of the purple light, the scene in front of them made them all open their mouths wide.

The heart cried out:

The art of divination is truly magical, the ancients were not deceiving me!
