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

Four years have passed since the Gao family's assets were recovered.

After that day, Wu Ranchen seemed unwilling to be defeated by Zhou Yiqiao. He left a letter and returned to the Netherworld Sect, never to see Zhou Yiqiao again.

Zhou Yiqiao, on the other hand, has been staying in Phoenix Academy, concentrating on training, improving his realm and spells step by step, and spending most of the rest of his time teaching Chu Tianxing.

Chu Tianxing is no longer what he expected. Now he is only nineteen years old and has already reached the perfection level of Qi Refining.

You should know that Zhou Yiqiao relied on his experience and in order to prevent Chu Tianxing from accumulating erysipelas prematurely in his body, he did not provide Chu Tianxing with an unlimited supply of spiritual medicine.

Chu Tianxing was able to cultivate to this point because he practiced hard step by step.

In addition to Chu Tianxing, He Yunxi, who returned to the sect to break through, also returned a year after leaving. Now, with the help of Zhou Yiqiao, he has begun to prepare the materials for forming pills.

With its back against a big tree, it is easy to enjoy the shade. According to Zhou Yiqiao's idea, He Yunxi must form at least a middle-grade golden elixir, so there is still a long way to go.

The most important thing is that the four spirit beasts who have been carrying the spirit beast bag on Zhou Yiqiao's waist have finally advanced to the late stage of foundation building in the past four years after a long period of practice.

If compared with human monks, the cultivation speed of the four beasts is not outstanding, but after all, the lifespan of spiritual beasts is much longer than that of humans, which is acceptable.

"You are the first student among the many students in my Phoenix Academy to advance to the pinnacle of Qi Refining. As my teacher, I have high hopes for you. I hope you can practice hard and improve diligently."

Looking at Chu Tianxing, Zhou Yiqiao patted his shoulder and said seriously.

"Master, please rest assured that my disciple will never live up to your expectations!"

Chu Tianxing bowed and worshiped.

Zhou Yiqiao smiled slightly and nodded with satisfaction.

"You just have to practice and polish your spiritual power patiently, and Master will find for you spiritual objects that are enough to build the foundation of heaven."

Chu Tianxing suddenly showed joy.

"Then I'll bother you, Master."

"Ah."

Zhou Yiqiao nodded lightly, then turned around and left.

Chu Tianxing looked at his back and sighed secretly. Sure enough, only a powerful person like Master has so many things to worry about every day.

"Xiao Hei, I'm going back first, and I'll bring you the spirit stone next time!"

Chu Tianxing greeted the black bear beside him, jumped up, used his escape technique, and turned into an afterimage and flew towards Phoenix Academy.

......

As soon as Zhou Yiqiao returned to the mansion, He Yunxi came up with a jade album.

Because all the original forces in New Zhengzhou have moved to the Netherworld Sect, and the local forces supported by the Su family and other Holy Emperors have not yet matured, in the past four years, various forces in Chu State have gradually carved up New Zhengzhou.

There are more forces that are familiar with Phoenix Pavilion, and there are more forces that Zhou Yiqiao has to meet every day.

"Senior brother, Zhang Zhoumu and Yang Governor are here to visit. Senior brother, would you like to meet them?"

After hearing He Yunxi's question, Zhou Yiqiao said calmly.

"Yes, why don't you see me? No matter what, they are both our government representatives in New Zhengzhou, how can I not see you?"

"Yes!"

He Yunxi nodded in agreement and left quickly.

Not long after, Zhang Tong and Yang Tao arrived hand in hand.

"The great presence of Zhangzhou Mu and Yang Governor makes the walls shine!"

"Haha! Dean Zhou is so polite. I haven't seen him for many years. Dean Zhou's cultivation has made visible progress again, which is really enviable."

The three of them complimented each other and then took their seats in the living room.

"The two adults are managing the affairs of a state and are busy with official duties. How can they have time to visit my academy?"

Zhang Tong and Yang Tao looked at each other, then smiled and said.

"Dean Zhou has a keen eye. We are here to ask for a private matter. We hope that Dean Zhou can help."

Zhou Yiqiao personally poured the spiritual tea for the two of them and asked with a smile.

"Two adults, please tell me, if I can do it, I will help you wholeheartedly."

Zhang Tong nodded and Su Rong said.

"A few days ago, the Nangong family's caravan discovered a secret realm of the former dynasty in the Kucha Mountains in the east. According to our preliminary investigation, it was the trial place of the Yiyuanying Sect here thousands of years ago."

"Due to the lack of maintenance in reality, the spiritual power in the secret realm continues to decrease. Now only disciples in the Qi Refining Stage are allowed to enter."

Zhou Yiqiao sipped the spiritual tea and raised his head to look at Zhang Tong after hearing Zhang Tong's words.

"What Zhang Zhoumu means is that he wants my Phoenix Academy disciples to enter the secret realm to investigate?"

"Exactly."

Zhang Tong pondered for a moment, nodded, and continued:

"Although the spiritual power in this secret realm is extremely thin now and is only suitable for disciples in the Qi training period, it still has considerable value."

"This is a rare opportunity for all of us at Phoenix Academy."

Zhou Yiqiao raised his eyebrows, but was not shaken by Zhang Tong's few words.

He put down the tea cup and looked at Yang Taodao, who had never spoken.

"I'm afraid this secret realm is not as simple as you two said, right?"

"I see the serious expressions on the two adults' faces, and I think the level of danger inside is extraordinary."

Yang Tao and Zhang Tong exchanged glances, hesitated for a moment, and then slowly nodded and admitted.

"There is indeed some danger in the secret realm."

"When the Jindan ancestors of the Wang family on the border opened up this secret realm, they were almost backfired by the protective power in the secret realm."

After hearing this, Zhou Yiqiao's face suddenly darkened.

"You two are really interesting. Even the ancestor of Jindan almost suffered a serious injury, but you still want my Qi Refining disciples from Phoenix Academy to enter and explore?"

Zhou Yiqiao snorted coldly and said in a cold tone.

Zhang Tong, however, was well prepared and showed no fear at all. He smiled and said.

"Dean Zhou, please don't misunderstand. This invitation to Dean Zhou is not to force the disciples of your academy to venture into the secret realm."

"In fact, the Fang Wang family over there has organized a grand meeting for this secret realm. At that time, all the forces that have stationed in Xinzhengzhou in the past few years will send people there."

"Phoenix Academy is now the oldest force in New Zhengzhou. Governor Yang and I both feel that if your academy can send a few Qi Refining disciples with outstanding qualifications, we will definitely gain a lot."

"Of course, if Dean Zhou feels it's inappropriate, we won't force it."

After hearing this, Zhou Yiqiao realized that he had misunderstood the two of them, and apologized slightly.

"So that's how it is. I'm trying to judge a gentleman with a villain's heart, but I still force you two not to blame me."

"It doesn't matter."

Yang Tao waved his hand and persuaded with a smile.

"Dean Zhou should consider all aspects for the sake of the disciples in his academy."

Yang Tao and Zhou Yiqiao didn't care, and Zhou Yiqiao smiled again.

"Since it is a competition between disciples from multiple forces, I, the Phoenix Academy, have no reason to refuse."

"Let's do this. You two will inform Headmaster Xie Baoxie of the specific time, and you will personally lead your disciples there."
