Immortal Cultivation: Starting from Improving Spiritual Root Qualification

Shan Xionghai followed Zhou Jinsong into the teleportation array. With a flash of light, and after a dizzying spin, they arrived at Wangchuan Lake.

The lake was quiet and filled with a light mist. The surrounding scenery was like a dream, but Shan Xionghai had no intention of appreciating it at the moment.

"Uncle Shan, please come this way." Zhou Jinsong led Shan Xionghai through a dense bamboo forest and came to Zhou Xun's cave.

Then he saw a handsome man in a green shirt, with a gentle and refined temperament, standing at the entrance of the cave, waiting.

This person is Zhou Xun.

It turned out that when Shan Xionghai just stepped onto the island in the middle of the lake, he had been discovered by Zhou Xun, so he went out to greet him in person.

"Brother Shan is here, come in and sit down!"

Shan Xionghai was also relieved to see Zhou Xun.

Enter the reception room and take seats as host and guest.

Zhou Xun waved his hand and a set of tea sets flew out.

As he spoke, he took out a few leaves of tea and placed them in the teacup. Then he made hand gestures and started brewing.

Not long after,

“Gurgle gurgle!”

The sound of boiling tea was heard, and the preparation of the spiritual tea was completed.

"Brother, please!"

Zhou Xun picked up a cup and handed it over.

"Then let me try it!"

Shan Xionghai nodded, took it, took a sip, and then said:

"Xun Ge'er has participated in the exchange fair of Jinyuan Pavilion. Now the entire Luoyang Xianzong is doing its best to investigate all the participants of the exchange fair!"

"I think we'll be arriving at Jiangling Prefecture soon!"

"The Luoyang Immortal Sect is really going too far!" Zhou Xun snorted coldly. At this time, his incarnation was still hiding in the belly of the fish, drifting with the flow!

"Luoyang Xianzong has Fang Jiuzun in charge, and has always acted like this. Fortunately, they are isolated in Luoyang Continent and rarely come out!"

"Now that Zhenhai Zhenjun has been killed by you, Fang Jiuzun feels that he has been insulted, so he is unwilling to let it go!"

"Brother, don't tarnish my innocence. When did I kill Zhenhai Zhenjun?" Zhou Xun said indifferently.

"Looking for you, brother." Shan Xionghai smiled helplessly, and then said:

"Fang Jiuzun has already discovered that you used the Lei Xiao Sect's skills when you killed Zhenhai Zhenjun!"

Hearing this, Zhou Xun smiled gently:

"I didn't expect that a Divine Transformation cultivator would have such a method!"

"So my dear brother, when you go out in the future, try not to use the Purple Thunder Art. If you are discovered, it will get to Fang Jiuzun's ears."

"Even Master can't protect you!"

Shan Xionghai warned.

"Thank you, Master Yun Ku. I will be careful!" Zhou Xun nodded and made up his mind that he would try not to use the methods in "Purple Sky Thunder Art" unless it was absolutely necessary.

"That's good, but now we should return to Jiangling Mansion and send the people from Luoyang Xianzong away. With my brother here, they won't make things too difficult for you!"

"Okay, let's get going without further ado!"

Then, Zhou Xun, Shan Xionghai and Zhou Jinsong took the teleportation array again and headed to Jiangling Prefecture.

Kuya Sea, Zhou Xun has been in the belly of a fish for more than three months.

At this time, almost every half a month, someone would pass by overhead with spiritual awareness, searching.

This is the Nascent Soul cultivator from Luoyang Immortal Sect, searching back and forth.

"Does Fang Jiuzun hate me so much? It's been more than three months and he still doesn't stop!" Zhou Xun couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, secretly thinking that hiding for a long time was not a solution.

The Blood Demon Patriarch snorted coldly:

"He is a powerful spirit-transforming expert. His disciple was killed by you, and his spirit-transforming master was killed by me. It is natural that he cannot swallow this humiliation. If he does not find you, how can he keep his dignity?"

Zhou Xun frowned, tapped the inner wall of the shell with his fingers, and thought:

"If this continues, my incarnation will be discovered sooner or later. I must take the initiative to attack and find a way to break it. Senior, do you have any ideas?"

At this moment, another divine sense swept across the big fish.

"Here we go again!" Zhou Xun cursed inwardly.

Suddenly, he felt the strength of this spiritual consciousness, which seemed a little weak. Its owner should be a cultivator in the early Nascent Soul stage.

Thinking of this, Zhou Xun suddenly came up with a good idea.

"Senior, are you sure you can capture this man without any resistance?"

"What do you mean?" The Blood Demon Ancestor was a little confused.

If I capture this person, and then use the Thousand Masks to replicate his aura and disguise myself as this person, perhaps I can get away with it and take the opportunity to leave.

"Good idea!" Blood Demon Ancestor brightened up when he heard this.

No matter how hidden the fish's belly is, if the search continues in such an intensive manner, it will probably be discovered one day. And if it hides in the enemy's own body,

They would never expect it.

So even if they search for ten thousand years, they won't be able to find it.

"Don't worry, I can make a cultivator in the early Nascent Soul stage lose his ability to resist with just one strike!"

"Then I'll leave it to you, senior!" Zhou Xun was overjoyed when he heard that. If he had taken action himself, the news would probably have been spread by that person before he even met him.

Because although Zhou Xun is very powerful now, he still has not mastered the ability to teleport his body.

So Zhou Xun slapped the blood demon bag on his waist.

A red light flashed, and a young man in a red robe appeared in the sea. Then, he disappeared in a flash.

The next moment, he suddenly appeared beside the Yuanying early stage cultivator from Luoyang Xianzong in the outside world, pressed his claws,

A strange magical power was infused into his body, sealing him off, making him unable to move.

Then, the Blood Demon Ancestor flashed and appeared beside Zhou Xun.

"Senior's move was indeed clean and neat!" Looking at the middle-aged Yuanying who had fallen into a coma, Zhou Xun hurriedly placed his hands on the middle-aged man.

In a moment,

The Thousand Faces Mask successfully copied the man's aura, and then compared it with the middle-aged man's figure, and made hand gestures.

Zhou Xun's entire appearance suddenly changed, becoming exactly like the middle-aged man in front of him.

The Blood Demon Ancestor could not help but marvel at it, and then he sent out his divine sense to take a closer look.

Even with his spiritual awareness comparable to that of an early stage Spiritualization cultivator, he still could not find the difference between the two.

“It’s really amazing!”

"With this treasure in hand, it shouldn't be a problem for you to escape!"

"The missing part now is this person's memory. First, we will interrogate him carefully, and then use the soul-searching method, and we will be able to complete the information." The Blood Demon Patriarch smiled slightly.

Zhou Xun nodded in agreement, raised his hand, and injected a stream of spiritual power into the middle-aged cultivator's body, waking him up.

As soon as the middle-aged monk opened his eyes, he struggled in fear, but found that he was bound by an invisible force and could not move.

Zhou Xun looked at him coldly: "If you don't want to suffer, answer my questions honestly."

Hearing this, the middle-aged man sneered and said proudly:

"I am the Yuanying Zhenjun of Luoyang Fairy Palace. How can I be such a spineless person? You can kill me or chop me up as you please. I will not answer any questions!"

"On the contrary, you'd better surrender yourself. Otherwise, we will find you, extract your soul and refine your spirit. Reincarnation will only be a luxury for you!"

"Whether I will be extracted and refined is still unknown, but you, I'm afraid you will have to taste it first!" Zhou Xun's tone was calm, but there was a hint of oppression.

Since it concerns his own safety, he will naturally not show mercy.

A trace of fear flashed across the middle-aged monk's eyes, but he still held on and refused to give in. Seeing this, Zhou Xun lost his patience and nodded to the Blood Demon Ancestor beside him.

The Blood Demon Patriarch spoke coldly:

"Boy, don't try to be so stubborn. I have lived in this world for hundreds of years. I have seen all kinds of tough guys, but they all obeyed me in the end."

"Well, I'll let you have a taste of my ancestor's methods!"

As he spoke, a burst of blood light surged around the Blood Demon Ancestor's body, and a strong bloody smell filled the air, causing the middle-aged cultivator to frown.

Then he slowly raised his hand, and a drop of dark red blood condensed on his fingertips, emitting a strange light.

Then it floated towards the forehead of the middle-aged monk.

The middle-aged monk's pupils suddenly contracted and his body began to tremble involuntarily. Although he didn't know what this blood bead was, his instinct told him that this thing was definitely not a good thing.

"You...what do you want to do!" There was a slight tremor in the middle-aged monk's voice, and he could no longer maintain his previous toughness.

The Blood Demon Ancestor sneered, his voice hoarse and cold:

"This is the 'Soul Devouring Blood Curse'. Once it enters your sea of ​​consciousness, it will devour your soul bit by bit, making you feel a hundred times more painful than extracting your soul and refining your spirit.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

If you cooperate now, you may suffer less."

The middle-aged monk's face turned pale in an instant, and beads of sweat oozed from his forehead. He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he clenched his teeth and refused to speak.

"It seems that you won't cry until you see the coffin." The Blood Demon Ancestor snorted coldly and flicked his finger lightly. The drop of blood instantly sank into the forehead of the middle-aged monk.

"ah--!"

The middle-aged monk let out a shrill scream.

His body twitched violently, his eyes widened so wide that his eyeballs almost popped out, and the muscles on his face twisted into a ball, appearing extremely painful.

Zhou Xun stood aside and watched coldly. He knew that although the Blood Demon Ancestor's methods were cruel, he had no choice at the moment. If he did not obtain information as soon as possible, his situation would only become more and more dangerous.

After a while, the screams of the middle-aged monk gradually weakened, and he collapsed to the ground, breathing rapidly, his face as pale as paper.

His eyes had become unfocused, and he was clearly no longer able to bear the pain.

"Now, are you willing to speak?" The Blood Demon Ancestor asked calmly, with a hint of impatience in his tone.

The middle-aged monk raised his head with difficulty, his eyes full of fear and despair.

"I...I said..." The middle-aged monk's voice was hoarse and weak, as if he had used up all his strength.

"Wouldn't we have avoided this pain earlier?"

Zhou Xun nodded, signaling the Blood Demon Ancestor to stop his actions temporarily.

The Blood Demon Ancestor snorted coldly, waved his hand to take back the drop of blood, and the middle-aged cultivator's pain was alleviated a lot.

"What... do you want to know?" The middle-aged monk panted, with a hint of fatigue and helplessness in his voice.

"Your name, your Buddhist name!"

The middle-aged monk said in a trembling voice: "My name... my name is Zhao Ping, and my Dharma name is Chi Yuan Zhen Jun!"

"What is your status in Luoyang Immortal Sect?" Zhou Xun asked.

"I am one of the deacons of the Luoyang Immortal Sect's Alchemy Hall, and I am a fourth-level lower-grade alchemist!"

"Alchemist, what a coincidence!"

"The recent actions of the Luoyang Immortal Sect, and your specific plan to search for me." Zhou Xun continued to ask.

The middle-aged monk was silent for a moment, and then replied:

"The Lord of Heaven has ordered that we must find you no matter what. We, the Nascent Soul cultivators, have been divided into several teams and take turns searching near the Kuya Sea. Every year, a new group of people will come to replace us."

"Take turns. How long do you plan to search here?"

"There is no deadline, until the Lord of Heaven orders us to stop!" the middle-aged man replied.

Hearing this, Zhou Xun and Blood Demon Ancestor looked at each other. This Fang Jiuzun was really persistent and he really didn't give them even a chance.

"How many people are with you and who are they?" Zhou Xun continued to ask.

"There are four others with me,"

Zhao Ping's voice was weak, but he no longer had the will to resist. He said slowly:

"They are True Lord Chixiao, True Lord Qingyang, True Lord Xuanming, and the elder who led the team - True Lord Tianyu. We are a group of five and are responsible for the search mission in this sea area."

Zhou Xun frowned slightly when he heard that, and thought to himself, five Nascent Soul cultivators, including an elder in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, such a lineup should not be underestimated.

But with his ability to simulate thousands of faces, deceiving them should not be a problem.

"How often do you search? When is the next rotation?" Zhou Xun continued to ask.

Zhao Ping took a breath and replied:

"We will rest for three days every half a month and then continue searching. The next rotation will be in half a year, when another group of monks will take over from us."

Zhou Xun nodded, already having a plan in mind, half a year would not be a problem. Seeing that he had asked almost all the questions, he nodded to the Blood Demon Ancestor:

"Senior, it seems that we can use the soul-searching method to confirm whether what he said is true, and by the way, see if there is any key information that has been missed."

The Blood Demon Patriarch performed the soul-searching technique, and Zhou Xun observed carefully from the side. As memory fragments emerged, they discovered that what Zhao Ping said was basically true.

We also obtained more information about Zhao Ping, such as the fact that he had a Taoist partner in the late Nascent Soul stage, Fairy Zi Yan.

As well as some more details about the Luoyang Xianzong's search plan, such as the time intervals for searching different areas, the specific location and usage of the communication array, etc.

After confirming that the information was correct, Zhou Xun sealed Zhao Ping again and put him into the spirit beast bag.

He cannot be killed at this moment, because disciples of large sects often light a soul lamp inside the sect. Once they die, the sect will know immediately.

Then he put the Blood Demon Ancestor into the Blood Demon Bag, rushed out of the sea, and began to search for Zhou Xun's trace.

In the main office of Jiangling Prefecture, Zhou Xun and Shan Xionghai sat opposite each other, drinking tea and discussing philosophy.

During the conversation, the two talked about their own experiences. When they heard that Bai Gu Zhenren also died at the hands of Zhou Xun,

Shan Xionghai couldn't help but feel deeply moved.

"It seems that I will never be able to catch up with you in this lifetime!"

"Brother, why don't you underestimate yourself? You will definitely have a place in the future human world!"

At this moment, Zhou Jinsong hurried in and bowed:

"Master, there are several seniors outside, asking to see you by name!"

Zhou Xun heard this and looked at Shan Xionghai.

“Here it comes!”
