Cultivation of Immortality: Start by Improving Spiritual Root Qualifications

Chapter 733: An overnight success, who in the world doesn’t know you?
Base Camp, Central Square,

At this time, many cultivators gathered under the giant monument of the Heavenly Ranking, and bursts of exclamations and discussions were heard from time to time.

"Why did the ranking on this day's list suddenly change so much?"

At this time, a young monk in a green robe suddenly cried out in surprise.
He stared at the name and introduction that suddenly appeared on the Heavenly Ranking with eyes full of surprise, and subconsciously thought that he was dazzled.
His name is Hu Yuanfeng, and he is a cultivator in the early stage of Yuanying.
He is extremely concerned about the Heavenly Ranking. Basically, he knows all the nearly one thousand rankings on the stone tablet by heart!

Especially the top 100 positions rarely change.

Today, a name that had never appeared before suddenly appeared in the 47th place. How could he not be surprised?

"Zhou Xun!"

Hu Yuanfeng looked at the name and began to recall in his mind which powerful person it was.

And his military achievement is: two thousand five hundred and sixteen point fifty-five points!
This list is based on all the war achievements that this person has accumulated.
This shout was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, instantly causing a thousand waves.

The monks around were stunned at first, and then they all turned their eyes to the Heavenly Ranking. In an instant, exclamations and discussions rose and fell like a tide, one after another, continuous.

An old man with gray hair and a weathered face was shocked. He muttered to himself, "I have been in this Western Desert for decades. Every day, the ranking list changes, and it is basically concentrated in the bottom 500.

"Among the top 100, a name suddenly appeared. It was unprecedented. From being completely unknown, he jumped directly to the 47th place! Who on earth is this Zhou Xun?"

"Yes, more than 2,000 points of combat merit can be exchanged for four fourth-rank upper-grade ghost kings. I have never heard of his deeds before. Could he be a new killer god sent by some incarnation force?"

A middle-aged monk in a gray cloth shirt next to him took over the conversation.

"Could it be that he has mastered some unique method or secret way to restrain the ghosts, so that he can accumulate such amazing military exploits in a short period of time?" one person guessed!

"I think this Master Zhou may have some secret method to search for ghosts,"

A middle-aged monk with cunning eyes and dressed in black speculated in a low voice, with a gleam in his eyes.

He seemed to be thinking how nice it would be if he also had such a spell.

Just as everyone was talking about it, the Golden Dragon Demon King happened to pass by.

He was going to meet with Lord Yama to discuss the details of their cooperation in hunting ghosts, and happened to be attracted by the noise here.

"Greetings, Golden Dragon Demon King," seeing him coming, everyone bowed.

He was ranked eleventh on the Heavenly Ranking and had been in the Western Desert for decades, so almost everyone knew him.

The Golden Dragon Demon King was tall and mighty, emitting a powerful aura that made people afraid. He took big strides, pushed through the crowd, and walked towards the Heavenly Ranking.

"What happened?" asked the Golden Dragon Demon King.
"Monster King, there has been a change in the Heavenly Ranking. A fellow Taoist named Zhou Xun has suddenly risen to 47th place."

"The military merit increased by more than 2,000 points in one fell swoop!" the young man named Hu Yuanfeng replied respectfully.

"Who are you talking about, Zhou Xun? Master Wangchuan Zhou Xun!" The Golden Dragon Demon King was stunned when he heard this.
Isn't this the person that Yan Mo Zhenjun recommended to him to participate in this operation?
So he couldn't help but look towards the stone tablet, and soon saw the name that was on the Heavenly Ranking last week, and the number in front was forty-seven!
Seeing this, his eyes widened instantly and an expression of extreme shock appeared on his face.

The gentle, handsome young man suddenly appeared in his mind!

Back then, this man had defeated the pride of their Jiaolong clan, the Purple Jiao Demon King, causing their demon clan to lose three million miles of sea area.
Although Zhou Xun showed certain potential at that time, he did not achieve such brilliant results as he does today.

Gain more than 2,000 points of combat merit at one time.
Even he doesn't have such a record.

Could it be that this person's strength is already on par with his!
"How is this possible?" The Golden Dragon Demon King exclaimed in his heart. You know, it has only been a few decades since the war between humans and demons ended!
"Could it be that Zhou Xun has already broken through to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul?" Golden Dragon Demon King guessed.

However, all problems can only be solved by meeting this person.

He decided that after meeting Zhou Xun, he would definitely ask him how he had achieved so many military merits at one time.

On the other side, Zhou Xun and Tianci Zhenjun left the Merit Assessment Office and walked towards the place for exchanging military merits.

Both of them have now gained a lot of military merits, and they are eligible to exchange for many top-level treasures!
Even if it is a spiritual object to assist in advancing to the late Nascent Soul stage, it is enough.

Soon, Zhou Xun and Tianci Zhenjun came to the hall again and met the middle-aged man in blue robe.

"So it's Palace Master Zhou and Palace Master Ji. Seeing the two of you glowing, it seems like you've gained a lot."

At this time, the middle-aged man was holding a jade slip and reading it attentively. He raised his head when he heard footsteps. Seeing that the person coming was Zhou Xun, he smiled and greeted him,
"Fellow Daoist Gong, you are joking. I heard that a new batch of treasures were added this time, so I came to take a look!"

"It seems that Brother Zhou is also very well-informed. You are right. This time the commander has mobilized a large number of treasures from several continents!"

"This is the new treasure exchange list, the Palace Master will know after taking a look!"

As he spoke, the middle-aged man waved his hand, and a jade book appeared in his hand, and then he handed it to Zhou Xun.

Zhou Xun smiled slightly, took the jade book, and began to check it.
"Sure enough, there are many more treasures on the exchange list this time that have not been there before," Zhou Xun was overjoyed and hurriedly looked down.

"Dragon Yuan Pill, a fourth-level body-refining pill, can greatly improve the cultivation of body-refining cultivators!"

Seeing this, Zhou Xun's eyes lit up. He could now be considered a physical cultivator. It would be nice if he could exchange some.

When he saw that the exchange cost for military merit was six points per piece, he immediately decided to exchange twenty pieces, ten each for the main body and the clone.

Then look down,

There were many treasures that could increase mana, improve foundation, and enhance spiritual awareness. If Zhou Xun hadn't been able to condense the essence of the elixir,

Otherwise, you have to exchange some.

After a long while, Zhou Xun handed the jade book back to the middle-aged man in blue robe.
"Fellow Daoist Gong, I wonder if there is any replenishment of the 'Nine-bend Magical Ginseng' this time?"

As he said that, Zhou Xun took out his token and handed it over!

"Nine-bend Magical Ginseng. You asked about this item last time. It seems you have been thinking about it for a long time. I will find out after checking it out."

The middle-aged man in blue robe smiled and checked the jade box beside him.
Suddenly his face froze, he shook his head, and said with a hint of regret:
"I'm afraid that I will disappoint Fellow Daoist Zhou again this time. The 'Nine-bend Magical Ginseng' is not complete this time!"

Hearing this, Zhou Xun nodded.
This time, the spiritual items that were replenished only accounted for less than one-fifth of the number on the exchange list, so naturally the probability of replenishment was even smaller.

He had already prepared in his heart, and just asked casually, and then told her the treasure he planned to exchange this time:

"Please help me exchange 20 Dragon Yuan Pills for one more. In addition, I need one Deliverance Pill." "Fellow Daoist Zhou, you know that this Deliverance Pill is only for cultivators in the early stage of the Nascent Soul, and you can only exchange one. You will not be able to exchange it again in the future!" said the middle-aged man surnamed Gong.

"I know, I will use this quota!" Zhou Xun replied.

Although he already had a Deliverance Pill, it was only enough for his main body, and his incarnation needed another one. Since there was one in the exchange place, he took this opportunity to exchange for one.
After all, he had taken the Soul Condensation Dew, so it would not take long for him to reach the peak of the early Nascent Soul stage.

By then, you will be able to reach the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, and this Deliverance Pill will come in handy.

"Besides these two items, does Brother Zhou need any other treasures?"

"Exchange that Muyun Ginseng for another one!" Zhou Xun said. This Muyun Ginseng is an extremely rare fourth-grade middle-grade spiritual medicine that only requires 12 points of combat merit. Naturally, it cannot be missed.

The tone paused.
"I wonder if there is a treasure like the Blood Essence Stone. If there is, I will also exchange it for one. Apart from this, I don't need anything else!"

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man in the blue robe started to investigate again. After a while, he took out a jade token and smiled:
"Don't worry, Curry happens to have one of these blood essence stones. Please ask Brother Zhou to take out the token!" said the middle-aged man in the blue robe.
Zhou Xun then took out the token and handed it over.

The middle-aged man in the blue robe took out a special spiritual pen, activated it and pointed it at the token, which deducted 327 points of military merit.

Among them, the Dragon Yuan Pill is worth six points each, and twenty of them are worth a total of 120 points of combat merit.

Du'edan 150 points of war merit,

Mu Yuncan has 12 points of combat merit, and Blood Essence Stone has 47 points of combat merit.

After deducting the battle merits, the middle-aged man surnamed Gong took out four jade tokens and handed them over to Zhou Xun.
"This is the jade token that represents the four spiritual creatures!"

"Thank you, Brother Gong!"

Zhou Xun took all the cards and put them into his storage bag.

Zhou Xun finished the exchange, and then it was Tianci Zhenjun's turn.

Tianci Zhenjun took the jade book, probed into it with his spiritual consciousness, and soon found his target.

"Frost Dew"

A kind of spiritual object of heaven and earth, which can only be produced in some fourth-level spiritual places. It is an excellent auxiliary object for cultivation.
It was the same thing that Zhou Xun got after killing Su Yu that day.
To redeem it here, each bottle requires 85 points of combat merit.
Although it was extremely expensive, it was nothing to Tianci Zhenjun. After all, he had received more than a thousand points of military merit.

Then he continued to look down, and Tianci Zhenjun's eyes suddenly fell on a treasure called "Nine Extremes Destroying Pills".

"A fourth-level top-grade elixir, the 'Nine Extremes Destruction Pill', can assist a cultivator in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul to advance to the late stage. Exchange it for 999 points of combat merit!"

I had an idea quickly.

So he said to the middle-aged man surnamed Gong:

"Four bottles of 'Frost Condensation Dew', plus one 'Nine Extreme Destruction Pill'!"

Hearing this, even Zhou Xun couldn't help but reveal a hint of surprise. So many treasures were enough for him to cultivate to the late Nascent Soul stage!

Seeing Zhou Xun's curiosity, Tianci Zhenjun smiled slightly:
"It's rare to come across so many treasures, so I'd better exchange them as soon as possible to feel at ease!"

Zhou Xun nodded when he heard this. This time, Tianci Zhenjun had obtained more than 1,500 points of military merit. After exchanging these treasures, there would still be a lot left.

Tianci Zhenjun was lucky, and both of these treasures were still in stock.
So he spent 1,339 points of war merit to exchange it.

Then the two of them left this place and exchanged the treasures from Master Miku Mingku.

Let’s go to Lord Yama’s cave together.

Soon, we arrived at our destination.

I saw a black-faced man with a nose ring and two horns on his forehead waiting at the door.
This person is none other than Lord Yama's mount, a fourth-rank, mid-grade monster named Tyrant Bull, which possesses some of the Kui Niu's bloodline!

He is a very famous existence in the whole of Central Plains.

"Greetings to Lord Zhou and Lord Tianci. My master ordered me to wait for you two here!" the man saluted respectfully!
"Good work!"

Zhou Xun replied politely, and then, under the guidance of the man, walked into the cave.

When I arrived at the reception room, I saw Yan Mo Zhenjun already sitting in the main seat waiting.
"Meet Brother Yu Dao!"

"Brother Zhou, Fellow Daoist Ji, you are here, but you have exchanged for the treasure you wanted!" Lord Yan Mo laughed and said,

"It just so happens that a batch of new treasures have arrived, and we have indeed gained something!" Zhou Xun replied.
"I called you here today because I have an important matter to discuss with you!" Lord Yan Mo put away his smile and his expression became serious.

"You have been here for a few years, so I think you know something about this ghost tribe."

"Once the battle started, if it dragged on for too long, reinforcements would arrive soon, and the situation that was originally in the upper hand would turn into a disadvantage, and they would be besieged by the ghost tribe."

"Thirty years ago, I teamed up with others to set up a game and killed more than a dozen high-grade ghost kings. This curbed this trend and made them cautious."

"But now, after so many years, they have become arrogant again. Many Taoist friends have died here. This is why you can have such a harvest this time!" Yan Mo Zhenjun paused.
"So the Golden Dragon Demon King plans to work with me to set up a trap again and kill a group of ghosts."

"First, it can dampen the arrogance of the ghost tribe and make them dare not support us so casually anymore."

"Secondly, we can also take this opportunity to gain some military merit!" Yan Mo Zhenjun smiled slightly.

"I wonder if you two are interested?"

He naturally knew about the affairs of the Blood Refining Ancestor, and True Lord Xuanlang had also reported it to him, so he knew that True Lord Tianci now had the combat power of the late Nascent Soul stage.
Naturally, they must also be included in this plan.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Xun looked at Tianci Zhenjun.
Then nodded:
"Thank you for your appreciation, Brother Dao. Of course I am willing to do it!"

After all, with Lord Yan Mo and Golden Dragon Demon King leading the team, the danger is extremely low. Moreover, he has now subdued the top blood zombie, Blood Demon Emperor.
With his strength greatly increased, even if he was defeated, he would have no problem saving his life.

In a safe situation, he could gain military merit and suppress the ghost tribe, so Zhou Xun naturally agreed.
The same goes for Tianci Zhenjun. They came here to gain military merit, and now that they have the opportunity, they naturally will not let it go.

"Good! Good! Good!" Lord Yama laughed loudly.
at this time,

The man with horns came forward to report that the Golden Dragon Demon King was coming!
