Dragon Devouring Cultivation

Chapter 190 Rescue
Li Zhen looked at the jade slip. The jade slip contained one of the Gu family’s safe spots given by Gu Siqi. Gu Jun was hiding here.

Gu Siqi trusted him very much and gave him several nearby Gu family safe spots. If he betrayed him, all the Gu family monks who used these safe spots would be finished.

"It's right here!" He looked around and muttered to himself.

This place looks like just a jungle, without any buildings, but this is normal. Many monks do not like to live in rooms, but prefer to dig caves to live in.

He did not search slowly. He memorized Gu Zhun's breath and used it to send out a sound transmission talisman.

The sound transmission note flew into the jungle. Not long after, a light and shadow in the jungle below flickered a few times, and then a head popped out from there.

"Brother Gu!" When Li Zhen saw that it was Gu Zhun, he flew out from the Feiyun Boat and greeted him.

Gu Zhun stared blankly at Li Zhen who was floating in the air, his eyes wide open, with a look of disbelief.

It was really too unexpected. It had only been a short time. When he first met Li Zhen, Li Zhen's cultivation was not even as good as his. But now he was still in the middle stage of Qi training, while Li Zhen could already float in the air.

Standing in the air without the help of any magic weapon means that Li Zhen’s cultivation is at least at the Foundation Establishment Stage.

"What is your cultivation level?" Gu Zhun forgot his own situation at this time and asked, pointing at Li Zhen who was floating in the air.

"I have some talent in body refining and have already reached the second level!" Li Zhen answered him without hiding his thoughts.

After hearing Li Zhen's words, Gu Zhun was speechless for a moment.

What does it mean to have some talent in body refining? Then what is Li Zhen’s Qi training level in the late stage of Qi training? Of course, Li Zhen’s talent in body refining should be stronger, but his talent in Qi training is not weak either.

"Why are you here?" Gu Zhun asked after accepting Li Zhen's strength.

"Manager Gu is worried about you, so he asked me to pick you up!" Li Zhen replied.

"Thank you very much. Can you bring a few more people?" Gu Zhun asked embarrassedly.

"It doesn't matter, it's just a by-product anyway!" Li Zhen waved his hand and replied.

Although the Feiyun Boat is five meters long and the space inside is a bit crowded for six people, the Feiyun Boat is not just that big. The Feiyun Boat can be doubled in size by controlling it, and the number of people on board can reach about fifteen.

"Wait a minute!" Gu Jun said and shrank back.

Below is a hidden formation with an illusion, which cannot be detected with Li Zhen's level of formation skills.

Of course, for a small formation like this one, as long as the formation is made of formation plates or formation flags, he can use his perception of spiritual objects to use the dragon heart space to collect the formation plates or formation flags and use this method to break the formation.

Li Zhen waited for a while and saw seven people walking out of the formation below. Among them, Gu Jun was the oldest, and there were two girls and four children.

"These are my two cousins, and the rest are members of the Gu family!" Gu Zhun introduced.

He did not introduce Li Zhen to the two girls. He did not want to involve Li Zhen in the feud on his side.

He was already deeply grateful that Li Zhen could show up at this time, and he couldn't let Li Zhen get into more trouble.

He knew Li Zhen very well. For the sake of safety, Li Zhen was even unwilling to join Shifang Valley. Now it seems that Li Zhen's choice was correct, but before it showed that Li Zhen was cautious.

"Get on the flying boat, I'll take you to Lanling County!" Li Zhen waved his hand and said.

"Is this Skylark, your spiritual pet?" Gu Jun, who was about to board the flying boat, saw Skylark standing on the flying boat. He was startled at first and then asked in surprise.

A second-stage early stage flying spirit pet is an extremely important aid to any cultivator.

"Let's get on the flying boat first!" Li Zhen pointed at a few children and said.

Gu Zhun knew that the timing was not right, so he quickly carried the four children onto the flying boat. The two girls got on the flying boat on their own without saying a word.

The two girls were smart enough to see what Gu Zhun was thinking, so they didn't speak to Li Zhen.

After everyone got on the flying boat, Li Zhen set the direction of Lanling County and let the flying boat sail automatically.

"I managed to successfully contract this skylark by chance, so I'm giving it to you. I believe this skylark will be helpful to you!" Li Zhen said to Gu Zhun with a smile.

"This is too expensive. You don't have to give it to me if you need it!" Gu Jun shook his head and refused.

He was born in a good family, and he knew the value of this second-level flying spirit pet. Even in Shifang Valley, it was very rare to obtain a second-level baby demon beast and successfully contract it as a spirit pet, let alone an adult second-level spirit pet.

The cost of raising a second-level young spirit beast to adulthood is a staggering expense, which is no less than that of raising a cultivator from the entry level to the foundation-building stage, and may even require more resources. This depends on the bloodline talent of the second-level young spirit beast itself.

"Actually, now that I have a spirit pet, I really can't sign a soul contract anymore!" Li Zhen explained with a smile.

To be honest, Gu Zhun was tempted. Not to mention Gu Zhun, except for the four children who didn't know the value of it, the two girls also had their eyes wide open, as if they wanted to ask for it.

If they were not a little reserved, they might actually speak up.

They had never seen a second-level spiritual pet being pushed around.

"Thank you, brother!" Gu Jun finally bowed his head and thanked.

"Don't resist, relax your mind!" Li Zhen said in a deep voice.

After saying this, he took the second-level contract in one hand and pressed it on Gu Jun's head.

The second-level contract spontaneously combusted without fire, leaving only the contract runes inside that flew into Gu Zhun's brain.

Gu Jun felt his soul tremble and become much heavier. This was the pressure brought to his soul by the contract rune of the second-level spirit pet.

However, Chuan Yunque's realm is not high among the second-level ones, and Gu Zhun's soul can still bear it.

After a while, Gu Zhun got used to it. He didn't know how Li Zhen transferred the contract of the spirit pet, and he didn't ask. He just silently felt the presence of the Skylark.

He and Skylark are connected through their souls.

He is the master and Skylark is the servant. He can control Skylark's life and death, sense Skylark's emotions, and command Skylark within a certain range.

Li Zhen felt relieved when he saw Gu Zhun like this. After sending the Skylark away, he felt that he had completely repaid Gu Zhun's kindness.

As his cultivation progressed, the knowledge he learned became richer, including papers on cause and effect.

The paper studies the cause and effect, and the most important argument is that timely repayment of cause and effect will have a certain benefit in breaking through the bottleneck.

Of course, ending the cause and effect does not mean that the relationship between Li Zhen and Gu Zhun has ended. The two are still friends.

Gu Jun was in the flying boat, and despite his calm personality, he couldn't help but feel playful at this moment.

He commanded Skylark to fly around the flying boat, and if he was not on the run, he would have tried to sit on Skylark's back.

The biggest feature of the so-called flying pet is that it can be used as a flying mount.

After playing for a while, he felt a little tired and quickly asked the Skylark to fly back to the flying boat.

This was because his cultivation was too low, and it was still a bit difficult for him to use the soul connection to command Chuan Yunlark.

"Second brother, can you let me touch the spirit pet?" A young girl glanced at Li Zhen who was resting with his eyes closed, and then asked Gu Zhun softly.

The girl was attracted to the Skylark, a powerful second-level spiritual pet that was obediently controlled by Gu Jun. This made the girl lose her fear of the Skylark and she wanted to get in touch with it.

The other girl's eyes were also full of anticipation. Gu Jun was already very caring towards his two cousins, so he couldn't bear to refuse them at this time.

"Just touch it gently!" he said helplessly.

The two girls cried out in surprise, and came to the skylark standing on the deck, trying to touch it timidly.

When their hands touched the lark feathers, they could not contain the joy in their eyes.

Gu Zhun was looking at Li Zhen at this time, and Li Zhen's performance broke his cognition again and again.

From Li Zhen's Qi and body training, to the top-grade thunder escape talisman in Li Zhen's hand, to the current second-stage early stage spirit pet that he can give away at will, no matter how slow Gu Zhun is, he knows that Li Zhen must be hiding some secret.

In his heart, he was just happy for Li Zhen and had no intention of investigating.

Although Li Zhen closed his eyes to rest, he could still sense Gu Jun's gaze. He could sense that Gu Jun had no ill intentions at all, which made him very relieved. No one wants to meet an ungrateful person, and he had no intention of seeking anything in return.
