Cultivation of Immortality: Start by Improving Spiritual Root Qualifications

Chapter 860: Luoyang Sect’s Treasure House, in exchange for spiritual armor!

Seeing this, Zhou Xun couldn't help but feel moved.

Luoyang Xianzong is the number one sect in the human world, occupying an entire continent, plus the major strongholds on other continents.

The treasures and spiritual materials he collected must be the best in the entire human world.

This is a good opportunity to see what treasures are inside it. Even if it can only increase my knowledge, it would be great.

Zhou Xun released his spiritual sense and probed into it.

This jade slip did not have any restrictions, so Zhou Xun went deep into it without any obstacles.
The divine consciousness probed into the jade slip, and suddenly a brilliant light was reflected in the mind.
Zhou Xun looked carefully and was first attracted by a short sword surrounded by golden light.

This sword is about a foot long, the blade is as crystal clear as jade, and there seems to be golden spiritual clouds surging inside. The two ancient seal characters "Jing Yuan" are engraved on the sword tip.

"Jingyuan Sword, a top-grade magic weapon!" Zhou Xun's heart was shocked.

This sword is forged with 'Tian Gang Jing Jin' as the main material, and has been tempered for a hundred years by a peak Nascent Soul cultivator with his own life force Jing Gang.

When the sword is drawn, it carries with it the energy of Gengjin, which has a strong restraining effect on the cultivator's soul.

According to the jade slip, this sword was once the personal sword of the famous sword cultivator 'Jin Yuan Laozu' in ancient times. After the Laozu passed away, the sword was collected into the Luoyang Xianzong's treasury.

The exchange requires 200,000 contribution points. Although it is not cheap, it is definitely a rare treasure for those Nascent Soul cultivators who specialize in swordsmanship or gold-attributed.

Moving his eyes downward, Zhou Xun saw another black pill the size of a longan. Its surface was covered with fine silver lines and there was a faint glow of starlight flowing through it.

"Xuanchendushendan?" Zhou Xun raised his eyebrows.

This pill is made with 'Xuan Chen Han Sui' and 'Xing Yuan Lu' as the main ingredients. After taking it, it can reduce the intrusion of inner demons.

Although the effect can only last for three days, for a cultivator who has been stuck at the peak of the Nascent Soul for many years, these three days may be the key to a breakthrough. It takes 400,000 contribution points to redeem it, and there is only one left in stock.

Looking down further, a jade scroll glowing with green light caught his attention.

The whole body of this tablet seems to be carved from jasper, with densely packed runes floating on the surface, and the word "Taixu" can be vaguely seen.

"Taixu Refining Spirit Art"?
This turned out to be an ancient mystical art that specialized in cultivating the strength of spiritual consciousness. If it could be cultivated to perfection, the spiritual consciousness of a cultivator at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage could even be comparable to that of a cultivator who had just entered the stage of Divine Transformation.

It’s a pity that this volume only has the first three levels, and the subsequent skills have long been lost. Even so, it still requires 500,000 contribution points to exchange, which shows how precious it is.

In addition, there is also the 'Red Lotus Fire Marrow! ' This item was nurtured by the fire veins in the earth's core for thousands of years and contains pure fire essence.
And the 'Nine Heavens Thunder Talisman? ' This talisman seals the power of heavenly thunder and is an excellent item for saving lives and killing enemies.

They are all extremely rare treasures in the outside world.
"It's worthy of being the Luoyang Immortal Sect's secret library list, everything is top-notch!" Zhou Xun sighed.
Then continue browsing.

suddenly--

His eyes fell on a set of armor.
"Isn't this the 'Tianyuan Spirit Armor'?"

Zhou Xun was pleasantly surprised and looked at the introduction above.
"Ancient spiritual armor that can transform into a human puppet and act independently. Its strength is comparable to that of an early Nascent Soul. It can also be worn on the body to increase spiritual awareness and magic power!"

Looking at the above introduction, Zhou Xun became more certain of his judgment.
This must be a 'Tianyuan Lingjia', but I don't know which one it is among 'Tianshu', 'Tianquan' and 'Yuheng'.

In this way, out of the seven pieces of Tianyuan Spirit Armor, only two are missing. If he can find them, he will have the ability to become a god!

By then, if I meet Fang Jiuzun again, I will be able to fight him.

Continuing to count, Zhou Xun found a fan, which was divided into three colors: "red", "orange red" and "blood red".
Judging from the aura it emits, it must be a top-grade magic weapon with fire attribute.

Expel the spiritual mark inside and slowly inject mana into it.

Three flames floated out, emitting astonishing power. Even a peak Nascent Soul cultivator would probably have to retreat.

"This Three-Flame Fan, even among the best magic weapons, is probably one of the best!"

"Before this, I was still thinking about how to exchange that spiritual armor from Brother Tianci. Now that I have this fan, I don't have to worry about it anymore!"

The Tianyuan Lingjia has limited benefits for cultivators in the late Nascent Soul stage. In terms of value, it is not as good as the Three Flame Fan.

After all, the biggest function of this Tianyuan Lingjia is to connect members, provide magic power and fight the enemy together.

Continuing to count, Zhou Xun also discovered some rare elixirs, materials and other items, which were of great value.

After the inventory was completed, Zhou Xun planned to go to Tianhan City to visit Tianci Zhenjun and exchange the Tianyuan Lingjia in his hand.

Just walked out of the practice room,

Then I saw a beam of light flying across the sky.
It was a golden-eyed water-avoiding beast about ten feet in size. On its back sat a petite girl who looked to be about sixteen or seventeen years old, with some baby fat on her face.

It was her little disciple—Yu Siyue.

"Master, you are out of retreat!"

As soon as Yu Siyue saw Zhou Xun, she immediately jumped lightly from the back of the water-avoiding golden-eyed beast. The hem of her skirt fluttered in the breeze, and she jumped in front of Zhou Xun like a happy little bird.

She looked up, her eyes sparkling:

“Master, look, I have already reached the third level of foundation building!” As he spoke, he turned his palm upwards, and a ball of white spiritual power leaped at his fingertips, faintly condensing into the shape of three ice crystal willow leaves.

A hint of surprise flashed in Zhou Xun's eyes. He stretched out his hand and gently stroked the top of her hair. A ray of spiritual consciousness had already penetrated into her meridians.

I saw thirty-four drops of liquid spiritual power hanging high in her dantian, circulating with a natural rhythm.

"Not bad," he raised his lips slightly and took out a jade hairpin decorated with star sand from his sleeve.

"This is a top-grade magic weapon. Consider it a reward for your improvement in cultivation during this period of time!"

"Ah!" Yu Siyue took the jade hairpin and was extremely excited!
Zhou Xun looked at his little disciple's excited expression, a gentle smile flashed in his eyes. He flicked his sleeves, sat cross-legged on the green jade cushion in the courtyard, and motioned Yu Siyue to sit down as well.

"Siyue, today I will explain to you the essence of the third level of the Mysterious Ice Art."

Zhou Xun's voice was clear, and a crystal clear ice lotus condensed at his fingertips, reflecting colorful light in the sunlight.

With his current cultivation level of the late Nascent Soul stage, even though he is not an ice-attribute cultivator, he can still use simple ice-attribute spells.

Yu Siyue immediately sat up straight, with her hands placed neatly on her knees, but her eyes still showed curiosity:
"Master, this ice lotus is so beautiful! It's even more beautiful than the one refined by Master's Wife!"

Zhou Xun shook his head and laughed: "People who practice Taoism should not always care about these appearances."

As he spoke, the ice lotus suddenly turned into countless points of light and dispersed, forming a hazy ice mist barrier around the two of them.

"This is the essence of the mysterious ice energy. It looks beautiful, but it actually hides its sharp edge. You have now reached the third level of foundation building. You need to understand one thing,"

"The great way is to combine hardness and softness." Zhou Xun said earnestly.
"You have an erratic personality, and you are always eager to achieve success when practicing the Mysterious Ice Art. But you must know that being too hard will easily break, and being too soft will lead to failure."

"The further you progress in your cultivation, the more important your state of mind will become!"

"Disciple understands!" Yu Siyue nodded. Seeing this, Zhou Xun smiled in silence. She is still young now. As time goes by, her state of mind will naturally grow.

There is no need to rush.

Then, Zhou Xun answered many of Yu Siyue’s questions about cultivation, and then sent her away.

The Immortal City of Forgotten River,

After so many years of development, it has now become the most prominent city in the entire Eastern Wilderness, and is known as the Tianhan City.

One day, a figure descended from the sky and landed in the hall.
When the guards of the Teleportation Hall saw the man's face clearly, they became excited.

"Master Wangwangchuan, your disciple greets you, the ancestor!"

Now, among all the disciples under Wangchuan Lake, who doesn’t recognize this legendary cultivator from the Eastern Wilderness? Even if they have not seen him in person, they have seen his portrait.

Zhou Xun stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes swept over the guard who was shaking with excitement. He did not speak, but just nodded slightly, which made the guard kowtow repeatedly as if he had found a treasure.

These words exploded in the hall like thunder.

Dozens of cultivators have gathered in the Transmission Hall, including white-haired Jindan elders and young and energetic foundation-building disciples.

Everyone stood on tiptoe, wanting to catch a glimpse of the most outstanding cultivator in the Eastern Wilderness.

"Greetings to Master Wangchuan!"

The sound was like waves, rising and falling. Some people were so excited that their eyes were filled with tears, some knelt down and kowtowed devoutly, and some took out their photo beads to record this precious moment.

Zhou Xun had a calm expression, his clothes moving without wind.

Every time he took a step, a green lotus shadow appeared under his feet, which disappeared in an instant. He seemed to be strolling leisurely, but in the blink of an eye he had passed through the crowd and arrived in the hall.

"It's all gone."

These four simple words seemed to carry some kind of mysterious Taoist charm. The voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard by everyone.

Those monks who were originally extremely excited suddenly felt their minds clear and unconsciously made way for them.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Xun went to Tianhan City through the teleportation array!
The monks in the city were left looking at the direction he left, unwilling to leave for a long time.

"This is the demeanor of a great Nascent Soul cultivator." A young disciple murmured, his eyes full of yearning.

Zhou Xun himself did not expect that just showing up for a moment would cause such a sensation.

Therefore, as soon as he landed in Tianhandan City, he changed his appearance and turned into an ordinary man!

Soon he followed the crowd and walked out of the teleportation hall. Tianhan City has changed a lot now.
The biggest thing is the spiritual energy. As the first fairy city in the East Wasteland, Tianhan City is originally a third-level top-grade spiritual vein.

After the spiritual energy was restored, it was still upgraded to the fourth-level middle grade after so many years, which was not lower than that of Wangchuan Lake at all.

This improvement is still continuing.
It is a foregone conclusion that he will be promoted to the upper fourth grade in the future, which is why True Lord Tianci will return to Tianhan City to practice and live.

Not long after, Zhou Xun arrived at the 36th floor.
Without alerting any guards, he arrived outside the cave of Tianci Zhenjun.

With a wave of his hand, he took out a sound transmission talisman, whispered a few words, and punched it.
The sound transmission note turned into a stream of light and sank into the cave's restriction. After a moment, the cave's door suddenly opened, and a hearty laugh came out:

"Hahaha, my dear brother, I haven't seen you for many years. You are even more charming than before!

A middle-aged monk in a moon-white robe strode out.

This man had an elegant face, but there was a hint of sharpness between his brows. He was none other than Tianci Zhenjun. He had a strong aura about him, and it was obvious that he had been practicing in Tianhan City over the years and his cultivation had improved greatly.

Zhou Xun also showed a sincere smile: "Brother Tianci, how are you?"

The two smiled at each other, and Tianci Zhenjun enthusiastically pulled Zhou Xun's arm and said, "Come, come, I just happened to get a jar of 'Thousand-Year Drunken Immortal Brew' the other day. Today, I must get drunk with you!"

As he spoke, he instructed the disciple standing behind him, "Go and invite Daoist Fellow Tieshan to come over immediately, and tell him that Daoist Fellow Zhou has arrived."

Stepping into the cave, Zhou Xun discovered that there was another world inside, with pavilions and towers scattered in an orderly manner. A clear spring gurgled through the rockery, and the spiritual energy was as dense as fog.

The most eye-catching thing is a white jade pavilion in the center, with spiritual fruits and delicacies placed on the stone table in the pavilion.

"Brother, this cave is becoming more and more elegant." Zhou Xun exclaimed.

Tianci Zhenjun smiled and waved his hand: "I just had nothing to do, so I made some changes."

As he spoke, he took out a green jade wine pot. The body of the pot was engraved with cloud patterns and there was a faint glow flowing.

"This Immortal Drunken Wine is brewed with thirty-six kinds of magical herbs. Today I finally found someone who understands me and I can drink it with him."

As they were talking, a hearty laugh came from a distance: "Hahaha, Brother Zhou, you finally remembered us old friends!"

I saw a burly man striding towards me. The ground shook slightly with every step he took. It was Master Tieshan.

Zhou Xun stood up to greet him: "Brother Dao, how are you?"

Today, Master Tieshan's cultivation has reached the peak of the early Nascent Soul stage.
But this is normal. After all, being able to reach the peak of Jindan before his spiritual energy recovers is enough to prove his qualifications!
Master Tieshan patted Zhou Xun's shoulder heavily, not being polite at all: "Good boy, I heard that you have done great things in the Western Desert. Even Fang Jiuzun couldn't help but put you on the wanted list!"

Zhou Xun didn't expect that this matter would reach the ears of Master Tieshan!
I could only smile bitterly.
The three of them sat down, and Tianci Zhenjun personally poured the wine. The wine was amber in color, and when it was poured into the cup it condensed into clouds on its own, and the aroma was refreshing.

"Good wine!" Zhou Xun raised the glass and drank it all in one gulp. He felt a warm current flowing from his throat straight down to his dantian, and all the spiritual power in his body was boosted.

True Lord Tieshan drank three cups in a row, exclaiming that he was very happy. After three rounds of drinking, True Lord Tianci suddenly said seriously, "My dear brother, you came here not just to reminisce about the past, right?"

Zhou Xun smiled slightly, took out the Three Flame Fan and placed it on the table: "To be honest, I came here this time to make a deal with you, Brother Dao."

The moment the fan was unfolded, three-color flames intertwined and shone brightly in the pavilion. Tianci Zhenjun's eyes flashed: "What a precious fan! Is this a top-grade magic weapon?"

"Yes, it was obtained by chance. Brother Dao is a cultivator of fire attribute and can perfectly unleash the power of this treasure!" Zhou Xun nodded.

"I don't know what treasure you want to exchange, just take it!" Tianci Zhenjun said with a smile.

"I want to use this fan to exchange for the Tianyuan Spirit Armor in your hand." Zhou Xun said bluntly.

"This is a top-grade magic weapon. Junior brother, won't you be at a disadvantage?" said Tianci Zhenjun.

"Brother Daoist, you are wrong. The Tianyuan spiritual armor has an extraordinary origin. There are seven sets in total. I want to collect all the armors, maybe I can control the power of incarnation in advance and use it to fight against Fang Jiuzun!" Zhou Xun said solemnly.

"If you need it, it's yours!" Tianci Zhenjun said, waving his hand and handing over the 'Tianji' on his body.

In this way, Zhou Xun now has four sets of spiritual armor on his body!
