Cultivation of Immortality: Start by Improving Spiritual Root Qualifications

Chapter 750: Equally matched, the secret of the abandoned mansion!
Zhou Xun tightly grasped the lightning spear, and the spiritual power in his body rushed into it like a surging tide.
This time, at least one-fifth of his magic power was absorbed. You should know that he is now in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.
This shows the extraordinary nature of this top-grade magic weapon.

With the blessing of this powerful magic power, the spear of thunder suddenly shone brightly, and runes flickered and jumped on the blue-black spear body, as if it were a living thing.

Lightning flashed around it, almost turning into white light, and even the space around it seemed to be distorted.

"break!"

Zhou Xun roared, his body moved as fast as lightning, and he threw the lightning spear in his hand fiercely at the huge bone claw.

The moment he let go,

The lightning spear suddenly disappeared from its original position, and the next moment it appeared in front of the bone claw.
With an indomitable momentum, he stabbed fiercely at the palm of the bone claw. This attack condensed all his strength and will, and he vowed to break the stalemate.

"boom!"

With a deafening bang, the lightning spear and the bone claw collided with each other, and the energy that erupted was as dazzling as a miniature sun.

The powerful impact force spread in all directions, causing the protective light shield to shake and tremble continuously.

Under the impact of this powerful force, the bone claw was instantly broken, split in the middle, and then shattered and scattered.
Eventually it turned into a puff of smoke and dissipated in the air.

Without the balance of the bone claws, the lightning chain instantly turned into a huge lightning net, covering the head of Master Bai Gu below.

At the same time, after the lightning spear broke the bone claw, it also changed direction extremely flexibly and pierced directly into Master Bai Gu!
"The ultimate magic weapon!"

The old man in white robe below looked at the lightning spear with surprise on his face.

Although that bone claw was not a real object, it was a magical power that he had cultivated for many years. Its power was even greater than those of the top-grade magic weapons.
Even if it is not as good as the best magic weapon, it is not far behind.
But even with such magical powers, it still couldn't withstand the attack of the thunder spear, which shows how powerful it is.

This spear is of the most advanced level among the top-grade magic weapons. Even he does not have such a treasure.

It seems that I underestimated Zhou Xun.

By now, he knew that it would be impossible to capture Zhou Xun, especially since he was in Jiangling Prefecture.

However, Zhou Xun is the real Lord of Jiangling Mansion. Coupled with the True Lord Tianci below him, today's outcome seems to be doomed.

After thinking for a long time, Master Bai Gu finally made this decision, sighed, and said slowly:

"Fellow Daoist Zhou, stop it, let's talk!"

"Stop. Brother Bai, have you thought it through?" Zhou Xun asked in surprise. The two of them had only fought for a few rounds and there was still time.

"The strength that Brother Zhou has demonstrated today is more than enough for us to negotiate!" said Master Bai Gu.

Although he is not as good as the ten great cultivators, he is not far behind. In addition, with the advantage of geographical location, negotiation is the best way.

After all, when he has reached this level of cultivation, he will never easily engage in a life-and-death battle with others unless there is a possibility of killing or crushing them.

This is also a big reason why he can get to where he is today.

"Since Fellow Daoist Bai wants to talk, let's talk!" Zhou Xun waved his hand, and the lightning spear slowly fell into his hand. He put it to his waist and disappeared.

As for those thunder seeds, they turned into nine shields, spinning around in front of him.

After all, Master Bai Gu is a person who can teleport instantly. If he takes the opportunity to launch a sneak attack, it will be difficult to resist.

Then both of them retracted their magical powers and slowly fell towards the hall.

Seeing this scene, Bai Yu was shocked, his eyes widened, and he thought he had seen it wrong.

My father, who was so arrogant and domineering, actually had a gentle voice and stopped to negotiate with others one day.
And he brought it up on his own initiative.

Is this still the Master Bai Gu he knows? If those bone zombies were not here, he would have thought that his father had been possessed by someone else.

You know, even his son can only address Master Baigu as "elder" when he sees him on weekdays, which shows how arrogant Master Baigu is.

What was even more difficult for him to accept was that it was Zhou Xun who caused his father to change so much.

It is true that Zhou Xun is extremely powerful, he still admits this, but in his mind, he and he are always people of the same generation.
Now, he is on par with his father!
As for Tianci Zhenjun, he was also full of surprise. He did not expect that Zhou Xun could actually force Master Baigu to negotiate on his own.
"It seems that I still underestimated Brother Zhou!"

Wang Erniu's face was filled with joy. In his mind, his elder brother was an omnipotent being. Even if he could break through to the God Transformation Realm one day, he would think it was natural.

After all, Zhou Xun has been creating miracles since the two of them met.

Soon, everyone returned to the hall and sat down on the left and right, clearly separated.

Zhou Xun and Master Bai Gu sat at the left and right respectively. Their eyes met, and there was a subtle sense of tension in the air.

After a moment of silence, Master Bai Gu spoke first.
"Fellow Daoist Zhou, do you know that the two previous masters of Jiangling Prefecture were both from White Bone Mountain?"

"I've heard a little bit about it!" Zhou Xun said lightly.

"More than one hundred and thirty years ago, my junior brother served as the lord of this place and accidentally discovered a big secret of the chief minister of Jiangling Prefecture!"

"There is actually an entrance to a cultivator's abandoned mansion beneath this place, and this abandoned mansion is not in the same space. Fellow Daoist Zhou, do you know what this means?" Master Bai Gu asked in return.

"Transformation into a spirit!" Zhou Xun's words were concise and to the point, and his heart was filled with waves of shock!
When he was in the South China Sea, he accidentally found the cave of Tianxing Zhenjun and mastered its entrance.
And that cave was obviously owned by some powerful being from ancient times.

The abandoned mansion mentioned by Lord Bai Gu is in the same situation as the Tianxing Cave Mansion. It is half dependent on the human world, but in fact it is an independent small space.

Those who can do this must have strength at least above the Spirit Transformation level.

"It seems that Fellow Daoist Zhou knows a lot of secrets. Yes, there is a small space mansion of a Divine Transformation cultivator here!"

"Now, Brother Zhou can understand why we in Baigushan are striving so hard to pursue the position of the Lord of Jiangling Prefecture!"

"It's a pity that we met a person as talented as Brother Zhou. He is only in the early stage of Yuanying, but he actually defeated the combined forces of Wu Feng and Xuan Gu Fei Jiang."

"And take my Xuan bone away!"

Having said that, Master Bai Gu looked at Bai Yu hatefully, making the latter feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave, unable to speak.

Suddenly, Master Bai Gu raised his head, stared at Zhou Xun intently, and changed the subject:
"Fellow Daoist Zhou, do you know how many years ago was the last time a newly promoted god appeared in my human world?"

"Please help me solve this doubt, Brother Bai!" He still didn't know the secret of the supreme being in the human world.

"Three thousand years! A full three thousand years!" Master Bai Gu seemed to have fallen into madness at this moment.
"Only one person appears in three thousand years!"

"Do you know how many cultivators in my Great Jin Dynasty have been named one of the Ten Great Cultivators like me in the past three thousand years?"

"More than 130 people!" "This is just our Great Jin Continent, and in the entire human world, there are 13 such continents!"

"Counting the demon race, there are more than a thousand people, but only one person can finally be promoted to the God Transformation Realm!"

"So you know how difficult it is to become a god!"

After hearing this, everyone in the hall fell silent!
They all knew that this was based on the calculation of the top ten cultivators. If the cultivators in the late Nascent Soul stage were included,

The number will increase more than twenty times.

No matter how gifted you are, or how invincible your spirit is, before crossing this chasm of divine transformation, you will only turn into a handful of dirt!
Even Zhou Xun, who possessed such a peerless item as the Ningchun Sutra, no longer had the confidence to break through to the God Transformation stage.

The great road is harder than ascending to the sky!

Of course, this is also because the method of breaking through to the God Transformation stage only exists in the hands of those top forces. How can ordinary cultivators in the late Nascent Soul stage get the opportunity to achieve the God Transformation stage?

Master Bai Gu calmed down a little and continued, "So, Fellow Daoist Zhou, this mansion left by a Divine Transformation cultivator is our only hope of breaking through to the Divine Transformation stage."

His eyes were gleaming with desire and enthusiasm, "I have been planning this for many years, so I don't want to give up easily."

"Why don't you and I join forces to open up this ruins together."

"If there is a method to break through to the God Transformation in it, you and I will copy it together!"

"If there is a treasure or opportunity to break through to the God Transformation stage, if there is a double, then we can split it equally. If there is only one, then..." As he spoke, the White Bone Master's face showed a fierce look.
"It all depends on your own methods!" Zhou Xun said calmly.

Naturally, he would not let go of such an opportunity.

"Okay, now before we go into the Forbidden City, you and I must cooperate sincerely and open the Forbidden City as soon as possible!"

"I wonder where the abandoned mansion is. Can you take me there to see it?" Zhou Xun asked.
"Since you and I have decided to cooperate, there will be no problem. This matter will be handled by my son, and he will take you there."

"I still have to take Junior Sister Chi Lian with me to find a suitable corpse for him. I will not stay any longer. Goodbye!" As he said this, he turned into a white light and disappeared in the hall.

Zhou Xun had already figured out how Master Baigushan could arrive so quickly. It was likely that a teleportation array had been set up between Baigushan and Jiangling Prefecture, otherwise it would have been impossible for him to arrive so quickly.

"Fellow Daoist Zhou Zhou, my father has already told you to just follow me!" Bai Yu spoke slowly, a little embarrassed.

"Haha, if I offended you in the past, please don't take it to heart, Brother Bai!" Zhou Xun laughed and patted Bai Yu on the shoulder.

"It's just a small matter, it's just a small matter, then Brother Zhou, come with me?" Bai Yu asked tentatively.

"Then it's hard work!"

Bai Yu led Zhou Xun along a rarely visited path behind the main hall of Jiangling Prefecture.

After walking for about half an hour, we came to a valley with several corridors.

"Fellow Daoist Zhou, come with me." Bai Yu reminded from time to time, with a hint of restraint in his voice.

Once upon a time, he and Zhou Xun were in a hostile position, but now they have to live together like this, and he can't help feeling a little uncomfortable.

"It's okay." Zhou Xun responded, his eyes wandering around, not missing any details.

After stepping onto the corridor and turning a few corners, I came to a seemingly ordinary room.

There were some old bookshelves in the room, piled with yellowed ancient books. Bai Yu walked straight to the corner of the room and gently pressed a hidden bulge on the wall behind the bookshelf.

With a "boom", the wall slowly slid to one side, revealing a deep passage. The passage was filled with an old atmosphere, mixed with a faint fluctuation of spiritual power.

Unexpectedly, the biggest secret was hidden under the simplest mechanism. However, Zhou Xun had also discovered that these walls were made of materials that blocked spiritual consciousness, and with those restrictions,

Unless these buildings are demolished, this passage will never be discovered.

"Fellow Daoist Zhou, the entrance to the ruins is at the end of this passage." Bai Yu said.

Zhou Xun nodded and stepped into the passage first.

The light in the passage was dim, with a few glowing stones occasionally flashing on the wall, barely illuminating the way forward.

Not long after they walked forward, the passage began to go down. After walking for a good distance of ten thousand feet, the road ahead suddenly opened up.
What appeared before Zhou Xun and Bai Yu was a huge stone chamber, nearly a hundred feet in size.

The walls around are full of strange patterns.
"This is the entrance to the abandoned mansion." Bai Yu said.

Zhou Xun walked forward and observed carefully.

He discovered that these patterns seemed to be telling an ancient story about the life and cultivation experience of a powerful god.

There was a door carved on the north wall, with a faint glow emanating from it. With Zhou Xun's current attainments in formations,

Naturally, it can be seen that it is at least at the fourth-grade top level.

There was a middle-aged man in the stone chamber who was studying something. He was stunned when he saw Zhou Xun and others coming in.

"Uncle Wu, this is Jiangling Mansion Master Zhou Xun. The Great Elder has already discussed with him about exploring this abandoned mansion together!"

Bai Yu walked up to the middle-aged man and bowed.

Then he started to introduce middle-aged people.
"Fellow Daoist Zhou, this is my Uncle Wu, a fourth-rank mid-level formation master. He was the one who discovered this abandoned mansion, and he is also the one responsible for breaking the ban now!"

Upon hearing this, Uncle Wu frowned slightly and looked at Zhou Xun with a hint of suspicion and vigilance in his expression.

"So it's Palace Master Zhou. I've heard that you're very powerful. Now you're able to force my senior brother to agree. It seems the rumors are true?"

Zhou Xun smiled slightly:
"Fellow Daoist Wu, you are too polite. Since we have reached a cooperation agreement with Master Bai Gu, I will do my best. I am also a fourth-level lower-grade formation master. If I can help, just let me know!"

Having said that, Zhou Xun did not disturb the middle-aged man's idea of ​​breaking the formation. He could see that

From the outside passage all the way to this stone chamber, there are countless restrictions in between. I think they were all broken by this Taoist friend Wu.

Since he has such experience and level, and has cracked most of the restrictions in front of him, it is enough to leave the rest to him.

As for him, he can just stay in this mansion and concentrate on practicing.

"There's nothing I can help you with. Lord Zhou, just do as you please!" said the middle-aged man surnamed Wu calmly.

"My uncle rarely socializes with others, so please don't take it to heart, Brother Zhou!" Bai Yu hurriedly explained. At this moment, he was very upset about Brother Zhou, who could fight his father to a draw.
He also felt a little bit of fear.
"It doesn't matter, let's go out!"

Then Zhou Xun walked out, and he and Tianci Zhenjun and others each chose a cave, and began a peaceful and long life of seclusion!
