Immortal Mansion: With mediocre qualifications, I have no choice but to live forever

Seven days passed by in a flash, and soon the day of the appointment with Yan Shaoyang came.

In the breeding room, Zhou Yiqiao shouted to the three Thunder Spiders that were eating the corpses of spiritual beasts in the corner.

"Thunderbolt, Huo Shan, Silver Lock!"

The three Thunder Spiders moved upon hearing the sound and arrived in front of Zhou Yiqiao in an instant.

Zhou Yiqiao knelt down, each of them touched their heads, then patted the newly purchased spirit beast bag around his waist and spoke.

"For this trip to Songbo Mountain, I need you to enter the spirit beast bag and go with me."

Since the three Thunder Spiders successfully transformed, they have already bowed their heads to Zhou Yiqiao.

After hearing his order, even though the three of them were loose-minded and did not like the space in the spirit beast bag, they did not hesitate at all. They each turned into silver streamers and escaped into the spirit beast bag.

Seeing this, Zhou Yiqiao showed a satisfied smile. After using the magic formula to close the stone door of the breeding room, he turned to look at Qijian who was huddled in the corner and waiting, and said aloud.

"Let's go!"

Qijian nodded, swung his tail, and a burst of yellow sand blew up, also entering the spirit beast bag on Zhou Yiqiao's waist.

After everything was prepared, Zhou Yiqiao called He Yunxi and gave some brief instructions, then took out the Wind Sword and fled towards Fengmingfang City.

An hour later, Zhou Yiqiao followed the boy in Wufu Hall to the backyard and saw Yan Shaoyang waiting.

"Junior brother came as promised. He is truly a person who keeps his promise."

When Yan Shaoyang saw Zhou Yiqiao arriving, he immediately came up to greet him and said in a joking tone.

"Senior brother is joking. Senior brother is the leading rich man in our Phoenix Pavilion. It's too late for me to flatter you, so how can I break the promise?"

Zhou Yiqiao also replied jokingly.

The two of them joked with each other, and then returned to normal. Yan Shaoyang was ready, pointing to the two storage bags on his waist, and said.

"Since junior brother is here, let's set off immediately. I have made arrangements. We can just go straight to Songbo Mountain."

Zhou Yiqiao nodded when he heard this, and followed Yan Shaoyang to leave Fengmingfang City and fly towards Songbo Mountain.

……

Songbo Mountain is only a thousand miles away from Fengmingfang City. Both of them have been immersed in foundation building for many years. It only took half a day to fly, but they arrived near Songbo Mountain when the sun set.

Songbo Mountain has few resources and is located in a remote location. Very few monks have passed through this place for many years. The most powerful monster in the mountain is just a cloud-swallowing beast that is about to build a foundation.

The two of them each concealed their Qi and arrived at a valley easily without disturbing any monsters.

Yan Shaoyang took out the iron token, his fingertips flashed with spiritual power, and he moved towards the center of the token. In an instant, ripples appeared in the entire valley, and a medicine garden covered with a light blue light appeared in their field of vision.

"This is the medicine garden discovered by senior brother."

With a smile on his face, Yan Shaoyang turned back to Zhou Yiqiao and said.

Zhou Yiqiao channeled his spiritual power into his eyes, taking in all the spiritual herbs in the medicine garden.

He stared for a moment, looked away, looked at Yan Shaoyang in front of him, and said awkwardly.

"There is no danger in this medicine garden. As long as the formation is cracked, all the spiritual plants can be collected."

"Senior brother is willing to share with junior brother, what are the requirements?"

When Yan Shaoyang heard this, he looked at Zhou Yiqiao with an inexplicable expression. After the two looked at each other like this for a long time, he suddenly laughed out loud.

"Junior Brother Zhou has a clever plan, and I really can't hide it from you."

Zhou Yiqiao saw Yan Shaoyang's actions and reached out to touch the storage bag on his waist, acting on guard.

Before setting off, he deliberately brought all the spiritual beasts with him, just in case, and was ready to fight with others.

Yan Shaoyang saw Zhou Yiqiao's actions and said with a smile.

"Junior brother Zhou, don't be nervous. There is no malicious intention in this trip."

"Senior brother and you have been cooperating on the elixir for ten years. You should know very well how senior brother is."

Yan Shaoyang kept talking to relieve Zhou Yiqiao's nervousness.

"Senior brother is not interested in practicing Taoism. All his thoughts are on the Five Blessings Hall."

"Some time ago, senior brother got in touch with the Nangong family, the largest medicine merchant in Chu State, and plans to open Wufutang to all areas of Yanzhou in the future."

"Junior brother, the quality of the elixirs you refine is far superior to that of monks at the same stage. Why don't we join forces and seek this wealth together."

After Zhou Yiqiao heard Yan Shaoyang talk about the Nangong family, he became more and more wary. After thinking about it, he politely refused.

"Thank you for your support, senior brother. However, my junior brother's qualifications are low. If he concentrates on refining elixirs, I'm afraid he will lose sight of one thing and fail to practice, and he will live up to his high expectations."

When Yan Shaoyang heard this, the smile on his face disappeared, his eyebrows raised, and he seemed a little unhappy.

The atmosphere between the two suddenly dropped to freezing point.

Zhou Yiqiao's left hand was always touching the storage bag at his waist, not hiding his vigilance at this moment.

The two of them faced off like this for a while, and finally Yan Shaoyang was the first to let go and said with a smile.

"In that case, senior brother won't force me on you."

When Zhou Yiqiao heard this, he bowed his hands in a salute, stopped talking to him, held out his Swift Wind Sword, and turned back and left Songbo Mountain without hesitation.

After watching Zhou Yiqiao disappear from sight, Yan Shaoyang let out a long sigh.

He knew that with Junior Brother Zhou's character, although he would look exactly the same when he saw him in the future, there was already an invisible barrier in his heart.

He suddenly and inexplicably felt that the invisible aura that had been shrouding him for a long time gradually dissipated into the world as Zhou Yiqiao left.

He shook his head to get rid of this strange feeling, and settled down to study the possibility of cracking the medicine garden formation.

……

After Zhou Yiqiao and Yan Shaoyang parted ways, he returned to Suolongze without stopping under the stars and the moon.

Although Yan Shaoyang's invitation was extremely sincere, the moment Zhou Yiqiao heard the other party mentioning the Nangong family, he knew that he would not be able to agree to Yan Shaoyang's invitation.

The Nangong family is the force behind the young prince. If he agrees to Yan Shaoyang's invitation, Zhou Yiqiao will definitely be involved in the struggle between the three princes to win the heir.

Although there are many extremely rare spiritual herbs in the medicine garden of Songbo Mountain, compared to the risks he will face in the future, Zhou Yiqiao still chooses to be wise and protect himself.

"This trip has not been fruitless."

Zhou Yiqiao murmured to himself, caressed the storage bag, and took out an iron token that was exactly the same as the one in Yan Shaoyang's hand.

This object was the trophy he got from the storage bag of the formation man during his trip to the secret realm a few years ago!

He recalled Yan Shaoyang's handprints, squeezed out the same spiritual power from his fingertips, and tapped lightly on the center of the token.

A flash of light flashed, and an address condensed on the token...
