Cultivation of Immortality: Start by Improving Spiritual Root Qualifications

Chapter 846: The spear head is obtained, and the half-spiritual treasure is obtained!
The moment he opened his eyes, there seemed to be shadows of stars flowing in Zhou Xun's pupils.

He clenched his fist lightly, and the air made an explosive sound that could not bear the heavy weight. When his spiritual sense swept through, he could clearly make out the trajectory of a mosquito's wings flapping a hundred miles away.

"Is this the power of a great monk?" Feeling the surging mana in his body,
Zhou Xun could feel that the strength of his magic power had increased by nearly double!
No wonder Nascent Soul cultivators are almost two different species before and after their advancement to the late stage.

Zhou Xun's movements also attracted a lot of people's attention.

Everyone spread out their consciousness and carefully identified the location.
"That's Master Zhou's cave. He has broken through to the late Nascent Soul stage!" Everyone was overjoyed.
They all knew that the reason why this Jiuyou King came here to set up the arena was

A big reason is to avenge the previous humiliation.

"If we can ask Master Zhou to help, we may be able to defeat the Nine Nether King and restore face to our human race!" said a middle-aged man in a yellow robe.
The others nodded when they heard this.

"This is absurd!"

At this time, a young man stood up and analyzed loudly:

"Since King Jiuyou can come here to set up a ring, his strength must have greatly increased. He came here with preparations. Otherwise, if he were to meet Master Zhou again, wouldn't that be humiliating himself!"

"Besides, his current strength is enough to tie with Liu Jianxian, plus that semi-spiritual treasure."

"He is already invincible below the level of God Transformation,"

“I think even if Yan Mo Zhenjun is here, he is no match for me. If I fail, with the power of the semi-spiritual treasure, I might die!”

"What Master Beichen said is very true!" Many people nodded in agreement. Even if Zhou Xun's cultivation broke through to the late stage and his strength increased greatly,

If he can defeat the Nine Nether King himself, how can he deal with the Nine Nether King who holds a semi-spiritual treasure?

"Humph, why do you want to boost others' morale? Master Zhou hasn't even broken through to the late stage yet, but he has already beaten the Nine Nether King and made him flee."

"Now that he has been promoted to the late stage, his strength has greatly increased. King Jiuyou is no match for him!"

The person who spoke was none other than Zhou Xun’s good Taoist brother, Qianchuan Zhenjun.

As someone who fought alongside Zhou Xun and saw him defeat the King of Jiuyou with his own eyes, how could he agree with such a statement?

After all, the King Jiuyou also took out half of his spiritual treasures, but he was still defeated by Zhou Xun.

"Master Qianchuan!"

Seeing this person, everyone greeted him.
"I will meet Brother Zhou in person and ask him to fight. He will surely help our human race to avenge our previous humiliation!"

“Yes, we believe in Lord Zhou!” After all, Zhou Xun is the person that Lord Ji and Lord Yun Ku acknowledged as having the potential to break through to the divine realm!
"Let's all ask Master Zhou to help!"

"Let's go together!"

"Let's go together!"

Zhou Xun stood in the courtyard of the cave, slowly getting familiar with the magic power of the late Nascent Soul stage.

With every move he made, the aura of the entire courtyard flowed, almost turning it into his own personal world.

At this moment, a beam of fire flew in and landed on Zhou Xun's hand.

"Is there anyone else visiting at this time?"

Zhou Xun opened it curiously, and the voice of Master Qianchuan suddenly came from inside:
"Brother, Qianchuan is here to visit!"

"It's him!"

Then he waved his hand and released the restriction.

With a few muffled "bang" sounds of stones rubbing against each other, the door slowly opened inward.

Soon, more than a dozen people filed in.

The leader was none other than Qianchuan Zhenjun.

"Greetings to Master Wangchuan!" As soon as they came in, everyone bowed and saluted, which made Zhou Xun a little surprised.
"What are they doing?" Zhou Xun subconsciously looked at Master Qianchuan.

"They all came to petition!" Qianchuan Zhenjun said with a wry smile.

Zhou Xun was even more confused after hearing this.
Amid the noisy responses from the crowd, Zhou Xun could vaguely hear words like "King Jiuyou has set up the arena, please ask Master Zhou to come out."
"Everyone, please be quiet. I will give you a reply after I have learned the whole story in detail." There was a hint of the magical power of a late Nascent Soul cultivator in his voice.

This made everyone suddenly become much quieter.
Zhou Xun then turned his gaze towards Master Qianchuan:

"Brother Dao, what happened during my retreat?"

Master Qianchuan nodded, a sigh appeared on his face, and then he began to narrate slowly:
"Three days ago, the Ghost Tribe's Nine Nether King suddenly set up a ring five thousand miles east of my base camp."

"He threatened to challenge the Yuanying Zhenjun of our human race, and even took out a top-grade thunder magic weapon as a prize!"

"Thunder magic weapon?" Zhou Xun asked curiously.

"Yes, this is it!" Zhenjun Qianchuan waved his hand and projected the magic weapon of thunder into the air.

For these monks, the projection condensed by magic power is more realistic than the 5D technology Zhou Xun used in his previous life.

Zhou Xun looked over subconsciously and was shocked!
The so-called magic weapon of thunder was actually a cone-shaped treasure with thunder patterns engraved on it. When Zhou Xun saw it, he felt very familiar with it.

And the so-called cone-shaped treasure,

A more accurate description would be that it looks more like a gun tip, a broken gun tip!
'Purple Jade Thunder Spear'!
Zhou Xun came to a conclusion instantly!

This is exactly the last missing part of his purple jade lightning spear - the spear head!
The Purple Jade Lightning Spear was originally the life-saving magic weapon of the Purple Jade Lord of the Lei Xiao Sect. It was definitely a magical treasure!
Six thousand years ago, when the ghosts invaded, Zi Yu Tianjun teamed up with the Sword God to fight into the ghost world and fought against the ghosts, killing six of their gods in a row.

He himself was also severely injured.

My life-saving magic weapon, the 'Purple Jade Lightning Spear', broke into several pieces.
Part of it was brought back to the human world by the Sword God, and a piece of the gun tip was lost in the ghost world. Now it seems that this is the one that King Jiuyou used as a prize!
"The fragments of the two parts of the human world, after being integrated, formed a top-grade magic weapon. If we can get this spear head, can it be promoted to a semi-spiritual treasure, or even restored to a spiritual treasure?"

In an instant, Zhou Xun understood the whole story clearly.
But his face remained calm and he asked curiously:

"There is such a trick, but we humans are full of experts, we will not let him be so arrogant!"

"That's not the case!" Master Qianchuan smiled bitterly and continued:
"Master Bai Yuan took the lead!"

"But who would have thought that the combination of a late Nascent Soul cultivator and a middle Nascent Soul cultivator would not be a match for King Jiuyou!"

"With just one move, Master Bai Yuan's body was destroyed, leaving only his Nascent Soul to escape!"

"What, just one move?" Zhou Xun frowned slightly.
He had fought with the King of Nine Nether before. His strength was indeed formidable, but it was only at the level of the ten great cultivators of the Great Jin Dynasty.

It's not as abnormal as Qianchuan Zhenjun said.
Could it be that his strength has improved during this period?

No, it should be greatly improved, otherwise he would not have fought with me and fled after being defeated.
Dare to come to the gate of the base camp and set up the ring,
It seems that his strength has increased a lot!

Zhou Xun thought to himself,
"What happens after that?"

"After that, two more Nascent Soul Peak cultivators attacked, but they were still easily defeated by him!"

"This eventually provoked Immortal Liu Jianxian to take action!" Zhenjun Qianchuan recalled the scene at that time, with a longing yet complicated look on his face.

The admiration is to admire that kind of strength, and the complexity is that he may never be able to achieve it in his lifetime.

"Brother Liu has come out in person, but is he still no match for this colleague?" Zhou Xun said in shock.

Master Qianchuan shook his head, then nodded: "Yes and no!"

This made Zhou Xun even more confused.
"Liu Jianxian is indeed the number one Yuanying in the Great Jin Dynasty. His power is beyond the reach of the rest of us. But the Nine Nether King dared to set up the ring." "He is indeed really capable. He and Liu Jianxian fought for hundreds of rounds, and both were injured, with no clear winner!"

“But then, King Jiuyou took out that semi-spiritual treasure!”

"Half-spiritual treasure?" Zhou Xun frowned slightly, and couldn't help but think of the ghost skull that day. He had a guess in his mind.

"Could it be that Brother Liu was defeated by this magical treasure?"

"Yes, it is the one he took out in the Ghost Mist Land that day," Master Qianchuan nodded.
"Moreover, the power is even greater than that day!"

“When the semi-spiritual treasure appeared, its might was earth-shattering, as if a natural disaster had come!” Even though it was the second time he had seen it, Master Qianchuan still felt a lingering fear when he thought of that scene.

“If the four great commanders had not acted together to eliminate most of the power of the semi-spiritual treasure, Immortal Liu Jianxian would have probably perished!”

"Brother Dao and the others came here to ask me to deal with that Liao?" Zhou Xun guessed.

"That's right. Last time, my dear brother was able to deal with it. Now that you have broken through to the late Nascent Soul stage, your strength has greatly increased."

"It should be the same this time!" said Master Qianchuan firmly.

"Brother, you are too kind!" Zhou Xun waved his hand and smiled faintly.
"However, since you all think highly of Zhou, then he will be the one in a while!"

As soon as Zhou Xun finished speaking, cheers broke out in the cave.

"With the help of the True Lord, this battle will surely be won!"

"The True Lord is the first Yuanying of our human race. A mere ghost king is not worth mentioning!"

"Senior Zhou has broken through to the late Nascent Soul stage and is even stronger than before. King Jiuyou will definitely be defeated this time!"

Everyone praised him, their eyes filled with excitement.

Master Qianchuan clapped his hands and laughed: "Since my dear brother has such a heart, we will go and watch the battle together!"

Zhou Xun nodded slightly, glanced at everyone, and said calmly: "Everyone, please wait for a moment, let me prepare something."

After saying that, he turned and walked into the inner room, waved his sleeves, and put the treasure into the storage bag.
"The tip of the Purple Jade Lightning Spear." Zhou Xun's eyes flashed with a gleam of brilliance, "If I can get this, my strength will definitely reach a higher level!"

When Zhou Xun appeared again, everyone saw a flash before their eyes, and a purple light shot up into the sky!

"go!"

Master Qianchuan gave a loud shout, and everyone set up their escape lights and followed closely behind him.

Along the way, more and more monks joined the team.

There were Yuanying Zhenjun who rushed over after hearing the news, and even Jindan cultivators who wanted to see the battle.

In just a moment, hundreds of rays of light gathered behind Zhou Xun, like a dazzling galaxy cutting through the sky!
"Look! It's Master Wangchuan!"

"Senior Zhou has come out of retreat!"

"Hahaha, King Jiuyou's good days are over!"

The monks along the way were all excited. They made way and watched the purple light go away.

A distance of five thousand miles is just a blink of an eye for a Nascent Soul cultivator.

When Zhou Xun arrived at the arena, it was already packed with people.

King Jiuyou sat high on the stage, with a spooky ghostly aura surrounding him. The Jiuyou ghost skull was suspended above his head, emitting a heart-pounding pressure.

“Zhou Xun!” King Jiuyou suddenly opened his eyes, staring at the newcomer with his scarlet eyes, “I have been waiting for you for a long time!”

"King Jiuyou, how are you?"

Zhou Xun walked slowly in the air and stood in the air a thousand feet away from King Jiuyou, his green robe rustling in the air.

Zhou Xun's eyes were as fast as lightning as he swept around the arena.

I saw that the ground within a radius of ten miles had already been razed to the ground, and the remaining sword energy and ghost energy were still intertwining and colliding in the void, making a harsh hissing sound.

"It seems that Brother Liu has really put in his best effort here." Zhou Xun said secretly in his heart, and when his eyes fell on the ghost skull above King Jiuyou's head, his pupils shrank slightly.

The ghost skull was glowing with a faint light at this moment, and countless blood-colored runes appeared on its surface. The pressure it exuded was three times stronger than what Master Qianchuan had described.

"Sure enough, his strength has improved a lot, no wonder he dares to come here to challenge!" Zhou Xun thought to himself.

"Zhou Xun!"

King Jiuyou laughed grimly, "I let you win by luck last time, but today I want you to see my true strength!"

"Wait a minute!"

"Why, you are afraid too? If you beg for mercy from me, I will let you go!"

King Jiuyou said jokingly.

Zhou Xun chuckled and did not answer, then said:
"I heard that Daoist Jiuyou has prepared a prize for this contest, how about we take a look?"

"Humph, do you think you can still take it away?" King Jiuyou sneered and waved his hand.
A palm-sized, purple-colored, three-inch-long spear head appeared in the air. After taking a closer look,
I saw that the gun head was flowing with purple light all over, and the surface was covered with mysterious lightning patterns, with faint electric light jumping between the patterns.

The cold light at the tip of the gun was captivating, as if it could pierce through the void.

"It is indeed the tip of the Purple Jade Thunder Spear!" Zhou Xun was delighted.

At this moment, the remaining parts of Zhou Xun's purple jade lightning spear began to vibrate uncontrollably, making a buzzing sound.

After sensing this, Zhou Xun became more confident about the 'Purple Jade Spear Tip'.

"It seems that we have to find a way to take it away!"

Zhou Xun's eyes flashed, and then he regained his composure. He stood with his hands behind his back and said calmly, "Fellow Daoist Jiuyou, how about we make a deal?"

King Jiuyou laughed when he heard this: "Hahaha! Are you trying to exchange the treasure for this spear head?"

"That's right." Zhou Xun nodded, "I'm willing to exchange three magic weapons for it."

As he spoke, he waved his sleeves and three magical weapons radiating precious light floated in front of him: a red flying sword, a pitch-black short blade, and a pitch-black giant axe.
The spectators were suddenly in an uproar.

“There are three magic weapons, one of which is of the highest quality, but it contains ghost energy. What kind of treasure is it?

"What a generous move by Master Zhou!"

"Although this spear head is precious, it's not worth this price, right?"

A trace of greed flashed in King Jiuyou's eyes, but then he sneered and said, "Fourth-level ghost weapon, it seems that you have killed a lot of trash, but what use do I have for these garbage?"

"The king has set up the arena today just to avenge his previous humiliation!"

Zhou Xun sighed softly: "Since King Jiuyou is so interested, why not let him appreciate one of my moves first!"

“Hahaha, come on, I heard that you have advanced to the late Nascent Soul stage, and I want to see it for myself!” King Jiuyou sneered.

"Okay, Brother Jiuyou, pay attention and take my attack!" Zhou Xun waved his hand.
A purple short spear appeared in his hand, which was his Purple Jade Lightning Spear, and he threw it towards King Jiuyou.
At the moment when the Purple Jade Lightning Spear appeared, the spear head in front of King Jiuyou suddenly trembled, and then turned into a stream of light and shot towards the short spear.

Then, in his surprised eyes, they merged together, the momentum rose sharply, and in an instant reached the level of half-spiritual treasure!
