Cultivation of Immortality: Start by Improving Spiritual Root Qualifications

Chapter 639: The secret of inheritance involves the fifth realm!

As for his body, it was naturally put into the storage bag and would be refined into Blood Demon Crystal in the future to feed the Blood Demon Son.

It’s a pity that Zhou Xun didn’t have the method to refine a fourth-rank Blood Demon General, so he had to use the physical body of this Nascent Soul cultivator to extract the Blood Demon Crystal.

Now, he has three Nascent Soul bodies in his hands.
According to him, if all of it was used to extract the Blood Demon Crystal, there should be no problem in upgrading Class A1 to Class A5 to Class A4.

By then, if they join forces, they may barely be able to fight against the late-stage monks.

But the most important thing right now is to count the spoils of war.

The storage bags of two mid-Nascent Soul cultivators were definitely his biggest gain.

He was the first to open the one belonging to Master Fengyan.

To his regret, there were very few spiritual stones and other resources here. Even compared with those of the early Nascent Soul cultivators, they were far inferior.

"Could it be that all the resources in his hands fell into the hands of Yuan Gu Zhenjun?"

Zhou Xun couldn't help but guess.

After all, Yuan Gu Zhenjun has so many magical spirit poisons in his hands, so the cost must be huge.
He had personally bred the Swallowtail Butterfly, so he naturally knew how horribly this spiritual insect consumed resources.

"Fortunately, I still have this top-grade gem. I didn't return empty-handed!"

Previously, when he had fought with Master Fengyan, this bead turned into a white mist and blocked his lightning for dozens of breaths. It was considered a very good defensive magic weapon.
It’s a pity that after the battle with Zhou Xun, his spiritual power has been greatly lost and it will take time to recover.

Then Zhou Xun opened Yuan Gu Zhen Jun's storage bag.
There were many bottles and jars inside. When they were opened, they were filled with spiritual liquids of various colors. Some had a fragrant smell, while others had a slightly foul odor.

As for spiritual stones and other materials, they are also very scarce!
"Fortunately, I only have the Thousand Response Insect and the Swallowtail Insect. If there were more, I'm afraid they would be the same as Yuan Gu Zhenjun."

"The bag is empty, all the resources have been turned into food for the spirit insect!"

Zhou Xun sighed,

Then he checked the life skills of Yuan Gu Zhenjun.

This is a method called "One Hundred Refining Spiritual Gu Techniques", which focuses on refining Gu with spiritual insects and creating insects with various magical powers.

For example, substitute Gu, mysterious puppet Gu and so on!
"It turns out that my swallowtail butterfly can be refined into a magical spirit insect called Phantom Spirit Gu. No wonder Yuan Gu Zhenjun praises this insect so much!"

"This method is similar to the Yuling Zhenjing. It does not require high qualifications for the practitioner, but it places more emphasis on the contracted natal spirit."

"The higher the level of the natal spirit, the better its aptitude!"

"It's really mysterious!" Zhou Xun couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

There are endless magical skills in this world, so don’t underestimate everyone in the world!

It’s a pity that this method consumes too many resources, otherwise Zhou Xun would also like to refine one or two poisonous insects as a backup.

“As for those poisonous insects of Yuan Gu Zhenjun, he had already collected them in his life-saving magic weapon, the Gu Ling Bowl, and took them away!

"Fortunately, the inheritance of Tianxing Zhenjun is still there!"

Zhou Xun held an extremely ancient jade slip in his hand and examined it carefully.

What is recorded here is actually an extremely rare array inheritance, which has reached the fourth-grade top level and faintly touches the fifth-grade realm.

This is the highest level of inheritance he has ever received since he started practicing Taoism.

Look carefully,

Sure enough, it contained instructions on how to set up a teleportation array.
The difficulty of setting up this array is not too high. A short-distance teleportation array can be set up with only the third-level array technique.
However, this teleportation array requires a key material - Kongxuan Crystal.

This item is extremely rare, and basically every time one is found, it will be collected by the sects that practice cultivation.

The teleportation arrays in Zhongzhou today were built with the help of almost all the cultivators in the world.
Otherwise, each of the three major forces would not have only built a few of them.

"It seems that even if we learn how to set up the teleportation array, it is not that easy to achieve the goal of connecting 'Wangchuan Lake - Tianhan City - Tianyu Gate'!"

But there is good news,
In the inheritance of Tianxing Zhenjun, there was a piece of Kongxuan crystal of considerable weight left behind, which could be used to set up a teleportation array.

"As for the other gaps, perhaps we can go to the ruins in Baimang Mountain to dismantle them. There is a teleportation array there!"

"Or we can mobilize the power of the entire Eastern Wasteland and offer a high reward. I think we can find some!"

After all, Donghuang is also a super large cultivation world. In terms of area, it is almost equivalent to one-third of the entire Central Continent.

Thinking of this, Zhou Xun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Then he took out the Xuankong Crystal that was the size of a baby's head and examined it.
Zhou Xun stared at the crystal in his hand.
The Kongxuan Crystal is crystal clear and emits a faint blue halo, just like a dazzling gem.

There are delicate lines on the surface, and there seem to be mysterious runes flowing slowly. Just one look at it makes you feel as if you are being sucked in.

It is said that ancient monks also used this material when refining void treasures.

Zhou Xun continued to count.

He also discovered the inheritance of the Spiritual Vein Master.

Just like the formation inheritance, it is also a fourth-grade top-grade inheritance, which can upgrade the spirit vein to the fourth-grade top-grade at most.

However, even the former Lord Tianxing did not seem to have reached such a level.

"If I can find a suitable successor, I can pass this inheritance on to him!"

As for Zhou Xun himself, he has no interest in studying the art of spiritual vein master.

As for Wangchuan Lake, when his strength is further improved and can be compared with the great cultivators, he will invite True Lord Qingxuan and his wife to the Eastern Wilderness to help him improve his spiritual veins.

"Hey, what is this?"

Suddenly, Zhou Xun's eyes were attracted by a token.

Looking closely, you will find that the token is made of neither gold nor jade, but it feels warm in the hand.

There are some strange patterns engraved on the front of the token, which seem to be some kind of ancient runes, exuding a mysterious aura.

On the back is a vague pattern, like a strange island.

"Why does this look so similar to the island below me? Could it be the control token of this cave?"

A bold guess arose in Zhou Xun's mind.

Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated.

He clasped his hands together, pointed his hand at the token, and began to refine it slowly.

As Zhou Xun continued to inject spiritual power, the mysterious runes on the token gradually lit up, and the light flickered.

After an unknown amount of time, the token suddenly shook slightly, and a ray of light shot up into the sky, instantly covering the entire island.

He used his spiritual sense to communicate with the token, and instantly had a full view of the situation on the entire island.

It turns out that this island is actually an independent small space just like the Tianxuan Secret Realm.
The layer of fog outside is the restriction that protects this space.
It is also the entrance for the outside world to enter this place.
It is part of the formation.

And this great formation, named "Yin Yang Xuan Kong Formation!", is a real fifth-order magic formation, which is why it has the ability to move in the outside world!

This space was not created by Tianxing Zhenjun, but by a spiritual cultivator named Xuankong Tianjun.
Tianxing Zhenjun is just his successor.

His art of formation was inherited from this person.

And deep in the island, there is a more advanced secret room, which contains the fifth-level formation inheritance.
You just need to upgrade your formation skills to the fourth level before you can open this place.

And all of this is the information recorded in the token! "So this place actually has such a history!"

Zhou Xun couldn't help but be amazed. After all, this was something that involved another level!
But now, the owner of this small space has changed to Zhou Xun.

"It's a pity that I have something important to attend to. Otherwise, if I stayed here to practice, I would be able to speed up a bit!"

Then, Zhou Xun did not wait any longer, took out the token and threw it forward.
Not long after, he reappeared on the sea surface, and the fog that had been there before was collected by him.

Now that the cave has welcomed a new owner, there is naturally no need to keep the entrance drifting on the sea.

In the South China Sea, a giant red turtle with a body size of nearly 100 meters was flying slowly.
On its back, there is an extremely exquisite cave.

It was Zhou Xun and his group.

Tianji Cave and training room.

Zhou Xun sat cross-legged. In front of him, a middle-aged body was floating in front of him. It was Yuangu Zhenjun.

Now that his Nascent Soul has left his body, only an empty shell remains.

After thinking for a moment, he took out the strange little flag.

It is the one where the green ape lives.

Last time in the Thunder Prison, he absorbed the residual soul of the Thunder Spirit and fell into a deep sleep.

This beast is extremely peculiar.

After absorbing the souls, he only needs to sleep and his strength will continue to grow. Compared with Zhou Xun's hard work in seeking the truth,

I don’t know how much simpler it is, all you have to do is lie down!

"Come out, don't sleep!"

Zhou Xun called softly, then waved the small flag, and a green light flew out and landed on the ground.

It transformed into a green ape about ten feet long, with a hint of golden light on its fur.
Compared with the last time, it is much thicker and its strength has obviously improved.

Looking at the corpse in front of him, the green ape excitedly hit his nose a few times. In an instant, a gray light emanated and enveloped the body of Yuangu Zhenjun.

Soon, an extremely illusory figure was pulled out.
It was the spirit of Yuan Gu Zhenjun that remained in his body.

It was sucked into Qing Yuan's nose with a "swish" sound.

Then Qing Yuan patted his belly, showing a satisfied look.

At the same time, thousands of miles away, in a simple stone house, a man let out a cry and then screamed in pain.

This is exactly the side effect of the destruction of the residual soul.

"Zhou Xun, I will definitely take revenge!"

This person was none other than Yuangu Zhenjun who had occupied the body of a low-level cultivator. If it weren't for the Substitute Gu, he would have died at the hands of Zhou Xun long ago.

Zhou Xun naturally didn't know about this, and even if he knew, he wouldn't be worried.

Under normal circumstances, the opponent was not his match, but now that only his Nascent Soul was left, he would have no need to worry if he could take over another's body and cultivate again!

At this time, the Green Ape looked at the other corpse of Fengyan Zhenjun.

The green ape's huge nose emitted a gray light and sucked in the remaining soul of Master Fengyan.

After eating two fourth-level residual souls in a row, the green ape showed a look of satisfaction.

"Okay, it's none of your business, go back!"

The green ape showed an anthropomorphic smile, then turned into green light, flew back to Xiaofan, and continued to sleep.

Zhou Xun, on the other hand, began to refine.
However, the method of refining the Blood Demon that he knew only recorded up to the peak of the Core Formation Stage. He did not have anything above that.

"I just refined it and extracted the blood demon crystal. There shouldn't be any problem!"

Zhou Xun thought so.

Then, Zhou Xun came to the body of Yuan Gu Zhen Jun.
Zhou Xun made hand gestures and followed the formula in the Blood Demon Sutra. He pointed at himself and a blood essence automatically floated out from his forehead.
The spell changed and hit the soybean-sized blood essence.

Next, it was as if a pair of invisible hands directly transformed each piece of essence and blood into a strange blood talisman!
"go with!"

Pointing at the corpse in front of him, the blood talisman slowly flew over, landed on the man's forehead, and slowly melted into it.

After a moment, a faint blood light emanated from the body.

After the treatment by the Green Ape, the power of the ghost on the corpse has completely disappeared, so there is no need to worry about backlash.
Just like this, after half a day, a vague connection came from the corpse.

“Sure enough, it can be refined, but the connection seems a little obscure!”

"Fortunately, I only wanted to extract his blood demon power and refine the blood demon crystal, not to manipulate the enemy, otherwise there would be a risk of losing control!"

At this point, the preliminary refining is finally completed.
The next step is to raise the corpse.

The semi-finished Blood Demon made from the corpse of this Nascent Soul might not be enough for use in an ordinary Four Yin Land!
You need a very dark place to do this.

Thinking of this,

Zhou Xun reached for his waist and took out the small Bu Tian compass. He then practiced the magic formula, performed the divination technique, and began to investigate.

Soon after, the results came out!
"Found it, but it's a bit far away, nearly two million miles away, and deep into the demon clan's territory!"

After thinking it over, Zhou Xun decided to go.

So, he put away the Tianji Cave, hid himself on the back of the Red Noon Spirit Turtle, and activated the Thousand Masks.

Conceal his own aura to the extreme.

His plan was to use the identity of the Red Noon Spirit Turtle monster to reach his destination.

This will make you feel much more secure!

Along the way, he remained alert at all times, paying attention to the movements around him.

The spirit turtle was flying steadily over the sea, its huge body like a moving island.

About a month later,
Finally, he reached his destination.

At this time, the sky above was clear, but there was an inexplicable gloomy atmosphere in the air, which was extremely divisive.
Then he took out the equipment for setting up the formation, and according to the formation diagram in the Blood Demon Sutra, he set up an extremely yin corpse-raising formation here!

Then, at the center of the formation, he dug a hole three people high, and put those semi-finished blood demons in, leaving only their heads outside.

When the time came, Zhou Xun looked at the sky, and then fired a magic formula.

"rise!"

Suddenly, a chilly wind blew, and the surrounding temperature suddenly became a little colder.
The yin energy roared in and was so thick that it almost became tangible, making people feel as if they were in the underworld.

"It is indeed a place of extreme yin!"

Seeing the Yin Qi being absorbed by these blood demons, Zhou Xun was extremely satisfied.
Then he set up a concealing magic circle to hide everything here, and then turned into a ray of spiritual light and left on the Red Noon Spirit Turtle.

According to his estimation, even in an extremely cold place, it would take at least ten years to complete the cultivation.

Then, you can come back here to check it out!
