Cultivation of Immortality: Start by Improving Spiritual Root Qualifications

Chapter 707: Counting the treasures, Tianci Zhenjun advances to the middle stage!
Zhou Xun sped all the way and soon returned to Jinyang Fairy City, and then went straight back to his cave.

"Brother, you're back so soon!" Wang Erniu said in surprise.

"Yes, Su Yu was too clever for his own good. He didn't take the teleportation array to leave, but went through the city gate. His cleverness backfired!"

"The only problem is that this person was born in 'Luoyang Fairy Palace'!" Zhou Xun replied.

"Luoyang Immortal Palace is far away on another continent, and Su Yu is only a Nascent Soul cultivator, so I don't think there will be any problems!"

Wang Erniu said.

Luoyang Fairy Palace now occupies an entire continent, just like Da Jin. Although its area is smaller, it is still 70% of Da Jin's.

With such a large territory, there are naturally countless disciples. Su Yu, a cultivator in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, can only be considered as a middle-level cultivator.

"Erniu is right!"

The two chatted for a while and then returned to their bedrooms to practice.

Zhou Xun took Su Yu's storage bag from his waist and began to carefully count the harvest this time.

First, the jade bracelet.
Zhou Xun waved his hand and took it out. He had just put it away before and had not had time to examine it carefully.

Now Su Yu is not dead, but his Nascent Soul has been sealed by him.

The main concern was that Luoyang Palace had some kind of magical power that could kill its disciples. After all, even the Yuling Sect in Zhongzhou had that kind of secret technique.

Not to mention Luoyang Fairy Palace, he planned to kill him after finding a suitable opportunity.

In this way, the jade bracelet in front of him still completely belongs to Su Yu. He needs to completely remove the mark of spiritual consciousness and Su Yu's aura inside.
This is how you can use it yourself.

Zhou Xun released his spiritual consciousness and probed into the jade bracelet.
He touched his spiritual consciousness with the spiritual imprint left by Su Yu in the jade bracelet, and began a contest.

Although Zhou Xun is only in the early stage of Nascent Soul, his cultivation is one level lower than Su Yu.
But his current spiritual awareness is almost comparable to that of a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage.

In addition, Su Yu is now imprisoned, and the spiritual imprint in the magic weapon has become a rootless source and can only become weaker and weaker.

Under the continuous impact of Zhou Xun's powerful consciousness, Su Yu's consciousness mark gradually loosened and disintegrated. Every collision made the mark tremble and the light became dimmer.

Zhou Xun was neither anxious nor impatient, but took steady and cautious steps!
After a hard battle, Su Yu's spiritual mark finally dissipated completely, and there was no trace of his breath left in the jade bracelet.

Zhou Xun nodded with satisfaction.

Looking at the magic weapon in front of me,

Slowly inject mana,

"coax!"

There was a loud bang, and at the same time, the jade bracelet turned into several feet in size, with flames rising from the surface.

The flame was not an ordinary fire, but a strange golden red color.
Like the scorching sun, the scorching heat spread instantly, and the surrounding air was burned and distorted.

In the flames, a phoenix appeared faintly, its beak whistling, its feathers fluttering, extremely extraordinary.
Zhou Xun's mind moved, he took out a fourth-grade low-grade spiritual ore and threw it into the flame.
But after a few moments, the spiritual ore began to melt slowly.
Zhou Xun was overjoyed when he saw this:

"It is worthy of being Su Yu's life magic weapon. Its power is among the best magic weapons, and it is also the best among the best!"

With this treasure, this trip will not be in vain!

Zhou Xun then waved his hand and took the jade bracelet back into the storage bag.

Next, he set his sights on Su Yu's storage bag. This man was so cunning that even Zhou Xun was deceived by him and lost nine top-grade spirit stones.

This made Zhou Xun full of expectations for the treasures inside.

He released his spiritual consciousness, erased the mark of spiritual consciousness on the storage bag, and then reached into it to start counting.

The space inside is quite spacious, and various items are placed in an orderly manner.

The first thing that caught my eye was a large number of spiritual stones, which were shining with different degrees of light.
The most numerous were high-quality spirit stones; a rough scan revealed that there were as many as 1,600 of them.

Other than that, they are all top-grade spirit stones.

Zhou Xun counted them one by one.

"Eleven, twelve"

I counted till I reached twenty-seven.
"A total of twenty-seven top-grade spirit stones. This Su Yu really knows how to get resources!"

"Even if you take away my nine, there are still eighteen!"

More than 90% of Nascent Soul cultivators!
After collecting these spirit stones and putting them into his storage bag, Zhou Xun's number of top-grade spirit stones instantly exceeded fifty.

In addition to spiritual stones, there are also many rare spiritual herbs and medicines.

One of the spiritual herbs was a dark blue one, and its leaves seemed to be covered with a thin layer of ice, emitting a hint of coldness. Even in the storage bag, one could feel the icy power.

Zhou Xun recognized that this was the extremely rare Ice Soul Spirit Grass. For cultivators who practiced ice-attributed techniques, it was a rare treasure that could only be found by chance.
If used to refine ice-based pills, it will have extraordinary effects. It can not only increase the purity of ice-attribute spiritual power, but also play an auxiliary role in breaking through bottlenecks.

It’s a pity that its grade is only the lower fourth level.

However, his Ningchun Sutra only looks at the grade of the elixir, not its value.

Even though this 'Ice Soul Spirit Grass' was enough to exchange for a fourth-grade middle-grade spiritual medicine, Zhou Xun kept it.

Although I can't use it myself, it's a good choice to exchange it or sell it.

"Hey, what is this!"

Zhou Xun took out three jade bottles about the size of a foot, each with a fourth-grade lower-grade soul-sealing talisman affixed to it.

When I opened it, a pure spiritual energy escaped.
"Isn't this 'Frost Dew'?"

Condensed Frost Dew is a spiritual object of heaven and earth. It can only be produced in some fourth-level spiritual places. This object is an excellent auxiliary object for cultivation.
Compared with his Danyuan wine, the effect is several times better.
"Such a large amount of 'Frost Condensation Dew' is enough to support Su Yu's cultivation to the peak of the middle stage of the Nascent Soul!"

"It's a good deal for me now. I don't have to worry about the problem of cultivation resources for at least several decades!" Zhou Xun happily put the three bottles of 'Frost Dew' into his storage bag.

Keep looking down,

Zhou Xun found several jade slips.

Then he picked up one and read its contents carefully.
"The True Art of Flaming Sun!"

This is a fire-attributed technique that focuses on the concentration and control of the power of fire.
When one reaches a high level of cultivation, one can summon the true fire of the scorching sun and burn all things in the world. Its power is even comparable to some ancient fire magical powers.

"It's a pity that I can only cultivate to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. It seems that the rest is in Luoyang Immortal Palace!"

After a quick look, I put it aside.
The other books also contained some fire-attributed secret techniques, which were of no use to Zhou Xun.
"But Brother Tianci is a cultivator with a fire-attributed spiritual root, so it might be a good idea to give it to him!" After all, Luoyang Immortal Palace is the largest force in the human world today.
The secret techniques of their sect must have something worth learning. If Tianci Zhenjun obtains them, he will definitely gain a lot. Then, he took out a simple green jade slip, which was covered with patina.

It seems to be a few years old.
He probed into the mind to check, and when he saw the contents clearly, he was overjoyed.

What was recorded in it was a pupil technique called "Spiritual Blue Pupil".

The introduction is quite detailed, not only including the methods of cultivation, but also the experiences and practical application skills of many predecessors.

This technique has four levels in total. When one cultivates to the first level, one can see very far away and penetrate some common concealment arrays and illusions to see the subtle details.

After practicing to the second level, one can temporarily interfere with the enemy's consciousness during battle, causing deviations in the casting of their spells.

At the third level, one can directly attack the enemy's consciousness, causing mental trauma;
If one cultivates to the peak of the fourth level, it is said that one will be able to see through all the illusions in the world, including some mysterious restrictions and hidden mysteries of space left by ancient powers.

See here,

Zhou Xun recalled that when he was following Su Yu, he was spotted by him from a distance.
Now it seems that it must be because of this pupil technique.

However, when he was fighting with Su Yu, he did not see him use this method to affect himself, which was strange.

In addition to this jade slip, the rest were some common minerals, elixirs and other items. Zhou Xun sorted them into categories and put them all in his storage bag.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

As for Su Yu's,
Zhou Xun waved his hand, a ray of light flew out, and cut it into several pieces.

At this point, Zhou Xun had basically completed the inventory of the storage bags.

This time, Zhou Xun reaped a lot of rewards.

After doing all this, Zhou Xun set his sights on the jade slip that recorded the pupil technique.
He decided to take this opportunity to learn this technique.

Not to mention the fourth level, even if he only cultivated to the second level, it would be enough for him to use.

So he waved his hand and set up a defense and a ban to isolate him from spiritual detection in order to prevent him from being disturbed during his practice.

Afterwards, he followed the instructions in the jade slip and began to circulate his spiritual energy, slowly directing it into his eyes, attempting to begin practicing the Lingxi Qingguang Pupil.

At first, Zhou Xun only felt his eyes slightly hot, and there was nothing else unusual.

But as he continued to persist and try, gradually, his vision began to become clearer, as if a veil had been lifted over the world before him.

Some corners that were originally blurry can now be seen clearly.

He was delighted, knowing that he had taken the initial step into the cultivation of this pupil technique.

After several days of hard practice, Zhou Xun finally succeeded in cultivating the Lingxi Qingguang Pupil to the first level.

He walked out of the cave, flew up, and hovered in the air hundreds of feet high.

Looking into the distance, I saw that the mountains that were originally far away now seemed very close, and every blade of grass and every tree on the mountain was clearly visible.

Originally, when he used his eyesight to the maximum, he could only see about three hundred miles away, but now, he could see at least eight hundred miles away.

"This spiritual blue pupil is truly magical!" Zhou Xun marveled in his heart.

However, he was not satisfied with this, but continued to practice in seclusion, moving towards the second level.

The difficulty of practicing the second level was much greater than the first level. No matter how hard he practiced, he could not succeed. He then sighed:

"It seems that without the help of the 'Soul Stone', it is impossible to successfully cultivate the second level!"

So he stopped practicing, stood up and walked out of the cave.

As soon as I walked out of the gate, I saw Tianci Zhenjun with a red face, sitting in the hall drinking tea with Wang Erniu.
Zhou Xun scanned with his spiritual sense and sensed that the aura on the body of Tianci Zhenjun had increased significantly. He was overjoyed:

"Brother Tianci, have you made a breakthrough?"

"It was just luck, I succeeded by chance!"

Upon hearing this, Tianci Zhenjun laughed out loud, his tone full of high spirits.

Now that he has broken through to the middle stage, his strength must have greatly increased. In this way, among the three of them, there are two Yuanying late stage combatants.
In the future, when they go to Jingzhou to take up their posts, even if they encounter trouble with Lord Bai Gu, they will be able to fight.

"Congratulations, Brother Dao. I just happened to have obtained a lot of Taoist scriptures from Luoyang Palace, so I'll give them to you as a gift. I hope it can be of some help!"

As he spoke, Zhou Xun waved his hand, took out all the jade slips that were in Su Yu's storage bag, and handed them over.

"Luoyang Fairy Palace?" Tianci Zhenjun was very interested and immediately picked one up to check.
As a result, he was fascinated by it, and after a long time, he slowly raised his head.
"Luoyang Immortal Palace is indeed the number one power in the human world. The content here is of great help to me. Thank you very much, brother!"

As he said this, he bowed to Zhou Xun.

"It's good to be able to help brother!"

Then, the three of them began to discuss the Dao, and Tianci Zhenjun told them about his own insights into the breakthrough, which benefited Zhou Xun and Wang Erniu a lot.

The next day, Zhou Xun went out early and ran towards the direction of the imperial city.
He had originally planned to go to the Secret Treasury.
But I was distracted by other things.

Today, I finally have some free time.

The Imperial City Secret Treasury is where the Great Jin Dynasty stores all kinds of rare treasures, spiritual materials, and secret books.

It has tight defenses, with numerous prohibitions and formations, and is guarded by many experts.

Even if a cultivator at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage were to force his way in, he would end up in regret!
The Imperial City is located in the north of the entire Jinyang Fairy City.
About half an hour later, he finally arrived in front of the Secret Treasury.
This is a vast complex of buildings with a simple and heavy architectural style, exuding a majestic atmosphere.

There is a very tall memorial archway at the entrance, with five large characters "Da Jin Mi Ku Si" inscribed on it.
There are two rows of guards standing under the archway.

There are ten people in each row on the left and right, all of whom are in the late foundation building stage!
They were dressed in dark blue armor, completely covered from head to toe, holding standard long spears, looking majestic!
With Zhou Xun's eyesight, it was not difficult for him to see that these spiritual armors were a complete set. With ten people working together, even a Jindan stage cultivator would probably be unable to defeat them!
"Stop, this is a restricted area of ​​the Secret Treasury, no one is allowed in!"

At this time, a guard dressed as a captain stood up, stretched out his hand to stop Zhou Xun, without considering Zhou Xun's cultivation level in the Nascent Soul stage.

Seeing this, Zhou Xun did not make a fuss. He slapped his hand on his waist, took out a blue-black token, and then handed it to the guard!

The captain took it and looked at it, his posture became respectful:

"So it's Lord Zhou. I'm sorry for being rude. If you want to enter, please follow me to register!"

He returned the token with both hands, then made a gesture of invitation and pointed to a small house next to him.
Zhou Xun nodded and walked in slowly.

Sitting inside was a blue-robed middle-aged man in the Jindan stage.
He took out the token and injected a trace of aura into a jade book. Then, he walked into the gate under the guidance of an attendant and went straight to the first floor of a palace.
"Sir Zhou, I wonder what brings you here this time?" A manager from the Secret Treasury Department came forward, with the cultivation level of Jindan stage.

Zhou Xun nodded slightly:

"I want to look for several materials in the secret library, namely 'Nine-bend Magical Ginseng' and 'Heavenly Spirit Wood Marrow Fluid'. I wonder if they are in the secret library?"
