Gou Zai Sect Beast Taming Longevity

Chapter 283 Huishui Mountain Tour

"Alright, thank you Elder Yang."

Upon hearing this, Yu Changsheng nodded, a look of gratitude on his face. He then gracefully clasped his hands in a fist and bowed to Yang Tianyi before taking his leave and returning to his residence shortly afterward.

[Used one Spirit Nourishing Pill to successfully feed the Crimson Hellfire Dragon, gaining 10000 Essence Points!]

[Used one Spirit Nourishing Pill to successfully feed the Golden-Winged Eagle, gaining 10000 Essence Points!]

[Used one Spirit Nourishing Pill to successfully feed the Colorful Star Deer, gaining 10000 Essence Points!]

[Consuming...]

.........

Yu Changsheng casually fed four pills to his four spirit beasts, and the 40,000 essence points he gained made him even happier.

Looking at the four spirit beasts in front of him who had just swallowed pills and were in a somewhat excited state, Yu Changsheng smiled slightly, stroked the Crimson Hell Dragon, and felt a sense of emotion.

Within a year, with his spiritual body, even without deliberately cultivating, he has naturally reached the eighth level of Foundation Establishment.

With the daily feeding of a small pill and the weekly feeding of a large pill, the Crimson Purgatory Dragon remained at the ninth level of the second tier, while the Colorful Star Deer and the Golden-Winged Eagle had both reached the seventh level of the second tier, not far from the eighth level.

As for the Xuan Yin Illusionary Turtle, it naturally broke through to the second-tier eighth level the instant Yu Changsheng broke through.

"It's just a pity... Although I can now try to form my core, I still feel like I'm missing something if I don't push the eighth level of my spiritual platform to its limit."

Feeling the surging cultivation within his body, Yu Changsheng frowned, sighed softly, shook his head, and returned the four beasts to his inner realm before heading towards Zhang Tianwen's residence at the top of Beast Taming Peak.

Before long, they arrived at Zhang Tianwen's cave. To Yu Changsheng's slight surprise, Li Minghan was also there.

Within that year, no one knows what Li Minghan did, but his relationship with Zhang Tianwen became even closer.

Upon seeing Yu Changsheng arrive, Zhang Tianwen and Li Minghan immediately stood up, poured him a cup of tea, and smiled slightly.

"Just finished refining pills, right? These days, Changsheng, your reputation within the sect is really growing."

"I heard that a few days ago, the senior sister from the Magic Peak next door even sent you a love letter, inviting you to enjoy the moon and have dinner together. Why didn't you go?"

Zhang Tianwen chuckled, his words revealing no envy, but merely a joke.

"Really?" Yu Changsheng scratched his head, thought for a moment, then shook his head and pouted, "I think so, but I can't remember."

"You really have a bad memory. You can even forget something like this. I saw it. The senior sister of the Magic Peak is top-notch in both cultivation and looks. She even flirted with you. You don't even appreciate it."

Li Minghan clicked his tongue in amazement, his gaze filled with admiration and a hint of envy.

"There's nothing I can do," Yu Changsheng glanced at Li Minghan, pouted and waved his hand, "I basically receive a bunch of love letters every week, so how am I supposed to know who sent them? Of course, I don't pay attention."

"You brat... how can you talk like that?" Zhang Tianwen smiled and shook his head, slowly sipping his tea.

Li Minghan couldn't help but roll his eyes at Yu Changsheng, speechless.

Yu Changsheng chuckled, took a sip of spiritual tea, and the rising spiritual energy cast a hazy glow over the scene before him.

Yu Changsheng was not joking about this. With the improvement of his cultivation and the status of a third-level alchemist, many people in the Myriad Manifestations Sect naturally noticed his potential.

Especially since he was not ugly to begin with, and because he had been cultivating the Myriad Spirits Technique and had a spiritual body, he was even more extraordinary, with an attractive temperament and infinite charm. As a result, quite a few female disciples secretly flirted with him, and he received quite a few love letters.

However, Yu Changsheng said he was not interested in any of these things.

After chatting for a while, Zhang Tianwen straightened his expression and got down to business.

"Alright, I called you all here today for another matter. I'm planning to leave the sect for a while. I wonder if you'd be interested?"

After a moment's hesitation, Zhang Tianwen looked up at Yu Changsheng and Li Minghan, and said softly:

"During this time, I have been inquiring about rare and precious materials that can restore the spiritual platform. However, such treasures are naturally extremely rare. I have heard a lot of news before, but in the end, I found that they were all just rumors."

"However, a few days ago, there was some very promising news. It was rumored that traces of Condensing Grass had been found deep in Huishui Mountain. I want to go and take a look."

Upon hearing this, Yu Changsheng and Li Minghan exchanged a glance, their eyes flickering as they fell into deep thought.

Yu Changsheng was no stranger to Condensation Grass; it was a well-known natural treasure. Its function was to consolidate the spiritual platform and help break through cultivation levels, which was also of some use to Yu Changsheng.

Yu Changsheng was aware of Zhang Tianwen's situation. The reason he hadn't tried to break through to the Golden Core stage for so many years was that he had been looking for an opportunity to restore the eighth level of his spiritual platform and then break through again.

Now that I've received such news, even if the chances are slim, I certainly won't give up easily.

After thinking for a while, Yu Changsheng nodded and grinned at Zhang Tianwen.

"Huishui Mountain? I've heard that there are many other rare and precious spiritual herbs and plants there. Perfect, I need these for refining pills. I can go there."

Currently, Yang Tianyi is providing all the medicinal herbs needed for alchemy, but it's not a problem to keep consuming them without giving anything back. Therefore, it would be good to go out and replenish them if there's an opportunity.

Upon hearing Yu Changsheng's words, Li Minghan scratched the back of his head, smiled sheepishly, and said, "Since you've all decided to go, how could I stay behind? Besides, I can't just leave your affairs unattended, Senior Brother Zhang."

Zhang Tianwen gave the two of them a grateful look and said, "In that case, I won't say much more about my thanks. We'll meet at the sect gate tomorrow at noon. Oh, and I'll be taking two friends with me on the way. I'll introduce them to you then."

"If there's anything else, remember to make arrangements. If there are no problems, we'll leave tomorrow. This trip will probably take another month."

"Alright." The two of them clasped their hands in farewell and prepared to leave.

After leaving Zhang Tianwen's residence, Yu Changsheng went to Wei Lao's residence. After confirming that Wei Lao had not returned, he shook his head and sighed softly before returning to his cave.

"It's been a year, and you still haven't returned, Master. I hope nothing unexpected has happened."

The day's strength vanished in an instant, and the next day, the sun shone brightly and the sky was clear.

At the foot of the Wanxiang Sect mountain, Zhang Tianwen and his two companions reunited, accompanied by two other disciples.

"Senior Brother Zhang."

After glancing at the other two, Yu Changsheng clasped his hands in greeting to Zhang Tianwen.

"Yes. Changsheng, you're here?" Zhang Tianwen smiled and nodded, then turned to look at the four of them before introducing them to Yu Changsheng and Li Minghan.

"These two are my longtime friends, Shen Xingchen from the Imperial Sword Peak and Wang Dingsheng from the Magic Peak. You should get to know each other."

Following Zhang Tianwen's gaze, Yu Changsheng also noticed the other two besides Li Minghan. Slightly surprised, he smiled and nodded at them.

"Yu Changsheng of Beast Taming Peak greets my two senior brothers."

"Junior Brother Changsheng, it's been a long time. You've really changed a lot these past few days."

Shen Xingchen chuckled, looking at Yu Changsheng with undisguised surprise in his eyes.

He had known Yu Changsheng for a long time, so he was even more surprised by the extent of Yu Changsheng's changes. It had only been a little over a year since they last met, but Yu Changsheng's cultivation level seemed to be almost as good as his own. Although he couldn't see Yu Changsheng's exact cultivation level, he was certain it was not low.

Thinking about the news he had heard in the sect these past few days, Shen Xingchen became even more curious about Yu Changsheng.

Yu Changsheng was naturally familiar with Shen Xingchen. The other party was still the same as he remembered, with little change. His long blue-white robe fluttered in the wind, and he had sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, looking like a handsome young gentleman.

"It has indeed been a while since we last met. I didn't want to disturb Senior Brother Shen because he's been in seclusion recently, but now I have the opportunity."

Yu Changsheng chuckled and responded to Shen Xingchen with a few words, feeling somewhat sentimental.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

With the improvement of his cultivation, Yu Changsheng finally saw Shen Xingchen's cultivation level clearly. He was at the peak of the eighth level of Foundation Establishment, the same level as himself, and the one with the highest cultivation among the five of them.

"Brother Zhang and I have been friends for many years. It's only natural that I would come to help him. I've been feeling a bit bored staying in the sect all the time, so I decided to take a walk around."

Shen Xingchen glanced at Zhang Tianwen, a folding fan that had appeared in his hand at some point, which he gently fanned himself with, giving him the appearance of a scholarly gentleman.

"Um."

Yu Changsheng nodded, his gaze naturally falling on the last person. This last person was indeed the inner disciple of the Spell Peak that Zhang Tianwen had mentioned. He was slender, with delicate features, and his cultivation level was also at the seventh level of Foundation Establishment. He clasped his hands in a fist and smiled at Yu Changsheng.

"Wang Dingsheng of the Magic Peak greets Junior Brother Yu. Please take good care of me."

"So it's Senior Brother Wang. If you ever need anything, just come to me for alchemy or anything like that."

Yu Changsheng suddenly realized and chuckled. These people were basically the most famous talents in the Myriad Manifestations Sect. Although Yu Changsheng had never met them in person, he had some impression of them.

"Then I'll have to trouble you from now on, Junior Brother Yu." Wang Dingsheng was overjoyed, took a deep breath, and looked at Yu Changsheng with a newfound warmth.

"Everyone's here. Let's set off."

Zhang Tianwen looked around, pondered for a moment, and then waved his sleeve. In an instant, a flying boat swelled up against the wind, becoming a pavilion in the air, eighty feet long and streamlined.

The bow of the ship is shaped like a giant beast, resembling an ox or a dragon, majestic and awe-inspiring. The stern is sculpted like a knife, gleaming with a cold light. Inside the ship, layers of buildings are arranged one after another, shimmering with golden light under the sunlight, truly magnificent and resplendent. Furthermore, there are protective formations, and spiritual energy ripples outwards.

"This spirit boat must consume tens of thousands of spirit stones a day. It's considered a top-quality magic treasure and is quite valuable. Senior Brother Zhang is truly generous."

Shen Xingchen looked at the flying boat, his eyes narrowing slightly, and exclaimed in amazement.

Even with Li Minghan's wealth, he was visibly stunned for a moment upon seeing it, a hint of envy flashing across his face.

"I can't afford this spirit boat." Upon hearing this, Zhang Tianwen glanced at Shen Xingchen indifferently, smiled, and led the others to leap onto the flying boat.

"Oh? It wasn't bought, so could it be a gift from Peak Master Mo?" Shen Xingchen asked curiously.

"This thing belongs to the Golden Core cultivator I killed back then," Zhang Tianwen said calmly after a long silence, shaking his head.

"…I'm sorry." Shen Xingchen was taken aback, remained silent for a moment, and then clasped his hands in a fist salute to Zhang Tianwen.

"It's alright, I guess I died a worthy death." Zhang Tianwen waved his hand, not caring at all, and then started the flying boat with a chuckle.

"Boom!!"

As the roaring sound came, the spirit boat beneath our feet slowly rose into the air, and a protective shield rose up around us, keeping out the gale. It transformed into a long rainbow, gradually increasing in speed until it pierced the sky.

"The Huishui Mountain we are heading to is located in the southwest of Wuzhou. It is completely outside the territory of our Wanxiang Sect. The journey is long and it will take five days even by flying boat. During this time, everyone should adjust their condition and get some rest."

After Zhang Tianwen said a few words, everyone nodded and found a room.

"call……"

Yu Changsheng took a deep breath, slowly walked to the edge of the flying boat, and looked down with a complicated expression.

Surrounded by swirling clouds and mist, the view was clear and the entire Cloud Mist Mountain Range undulated like a dragon coiled around the earth. The Myriad Manifestations Sect was located at the head of this dragon, holding sway over the region. Not far away, a great river meandered and stretched into the distance.

The spiritual energy is much thinner at high altitudes, so even though there is a spiritual energy conversion array inside the spirit boat, a considerable amount of spirit stones are still needed to keep the spirit boat flying.

"This is the cultivation world, a different kind of civilization."

Yu Changsheng pondered, gazing at the horizon, somewhat lost in thought.

"I don't know if I'll ever have a chance to go back. I miss home..."

Shaking his head slightly, Yu Changsheng didn't stay outside for long before finding a room to stay in.

"Huishui Mountain stretches for eight hundred miles and is located in the southwest of Wuzhou. Because of the underground currents that flow here, various tributaries of rivers and oceans converge here, so the water is very heavy and the mountains are majestic, hence the name Huishui (meaning 'water convergence')."

Inside the room, Yu Changsheng sat cross-legged, his mind filled with various pieces of information about Huishui Mountain.

"Because of the unique environment of the confluence, there are many spiritual herbs and medicines, many of which are rarely seen outside. It is not impossible for such a place to have Condensation Grass."

"The dense moisture, complex terrain, and various kinds of spirit beasts make Huishui Mountain Range a no-man's-land. The terrain is complicated, and among the five of us, including myself, the weakest is at least at the seventh level of Foundation Establishment."

"With this lineup, as long as we are careful, there should be no problem. As long as we don't do anything reckless, our safety should be guaranteed."

Yu Changsheng was lost in thought, but this thought brought him some peace of mind.

Due to the special nature of the Foundation Establishment realm, having two Foundation Establishment level 8 cultivators and three Foundation Establishment level 7 cultivators is arguably the pinnacle of the Foundation Establishment realm.
