Cultivating Immortals in the Family: Rising from Beast Familiarity

On the Hundred Medicine Peak, just when Zhou Chun was looking at the various elixir seedlings in the elixir garden, he thought of the Zhou family's lack of knowledge in some aspects.

A young man wearing a blue-grey robe suddenly walked out of the palace in front.

The young man is slightly shorter than Zhou Chun, about 1.78 meters, probably because he spends a long time beside the stove, and his skin color is darker and redder, like a blacksmith in the secular world.

After he came out of the palace, he waved to Zhou Chun with a smile on his face and said, "Thirteenth brother, the teacher already knows your purpose of coming. Come with me to meet him."

When Zhou Chun heard this, he immediately raised his hands and thanked him: "Thank you, Brother Six."

It turns out that this young man is also the "right" descendant of the Zhou family, ranked sixth, and his name is Zhou Zhengyuan. He learned alchemy skills from Zhou Mingshan, the eldest elder of the Zhou family, eight years ago.

Therefore, despite his inconspicuous appearance, his status in the Zhou family is actually very high, not even worse than some core clan members.

Zhou Chun followed Zhou Zhengyuan into the palace and soon came to a hall, where he met Zhou Mingshan, the eldest elder of the Zhou family.

Because his life span is running out, Zhou Mingshan now looks like an old man with gray hair, wrinkles on his face, and an old air.

After Zhou Chun came and saluted, he just raised his eyes to look at the young junior, and then said in a warm tone: "Since the patriarch asked you to come here to get the medicine, I will naturally follow the patriarch's order."

After saying that, he told Zhou Zhengyuan, who was accompanying him: "Zhengyuan, go get the medicine and give it to him."

"Disciple, obey."

Zhou Zhengyuan responded, and immediately went to the pharmacy at the back where the elixirs were stored, took out one bottle of [Chunyang Pill] and three bottles of [Beast Spirit Pills], and handed them to Zhou Chun.

After Zhou Chun took the elixir and verified it in person, Zhou Mingshan waved his hand to indicate that he could leave.

Zhou Chun didn't want to but didn't seem to see his signal. Instead, after collecting the elixir, he bowed to him and said: "Elder Mingjian, I have a spiritual object here that I want to ask the elder to help me with.

"

Hearing Zhou Chun's words, Zhou Mingshan couldn't help but twitch his eyebrows, but he didn't refuse. He just looked up at him and said lightly: "Oh, what kind of spiritual thing? Take it out and let me see it."

"It's a hundred-year-old ginseng, which the younger generation got from a bandit cultivator."

Zhou Chun said as he took out the wild ginseng that he had bought from the Hongyafang Street Stall Market.

He had always thought that he would wait until he had the opportunity to go to the market again in the future and find an opportunity to sell this thing.

But what he encountered during his trip to Yelang Ridge made Zhou Chun realize that he should improve his cultivation as soon as possible.

Everywhere in this world of immortality is unsafe. If you don't have enough cultivation and strength, you may lose your life if you just go out.

Therefore, it is best to use everything that can be used to cash out as soon as possible to enhance your strength.

At this time, after Zhou Mingshan took the wild ginseng handed over by Zhou Zhengyuan, he inspected it for a moment, nodded slightly and said: "Well, the quality is quite good, it seems to be more than 130 years old."

When it is old, it can be used as the main ingredient in refining the [Chunyang Pill]."

Is it only over 130 years old?

Zhou Chun suddenly felt a little disappointed.

Naturally, he would not doubt Zhou Mingshan's eyesight, so the old man who sold the medicine must have exaggerated the age of the medicine.

But this is a common situation in the world of immortality. When buying things from street stalls, it doesn't matter how much the seller brags, and he doesn't have to be responsible for his bragging.

When buying things at the street market, the real test is the buyer's vision. Once the buyer's vision is wrong, all the money will be lost.

The wild ginseng that Zhou Chun bought was not a fake after all, but the effect was not as strong as the seller had boasted, so he still made a profit.

Therefore, after a short period of disappointment, he quickly cheered up and looked at Zhou Mingshan and said: "This junior wants to dedicate this thing to the family. I wonder if the elder can exchange the elixir for this thing?"

Zhou Mingshan heard the words, pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly and said: "The market price of century-old ginseng should be more than sixty spirit coins, and [Chunyang Pill] is worth twenty spirit coins per piece. If it is replaced by pills, I will

I can give you three [Chunyang Pills] in exchange."

But he didn't ask Zhou Chun much about how he got this wild ginseng.

This made Zhou Chun, who had originally thought of several reasons, feel depressed and happy at the same time.

"Then let me thank the elder first."

Zhou Chun saluted and immediately agreed.

Soon after, Zhou Chun said goodbye to Zhou Mingshan, Zhou Zhengyuan's master and apprentice, and returned to Baozhi Peak.

When he returned to his residence, Zhou Cundang took out all the pills he had received from the general.

There are five pills in a bottle of [Chunyang Pill], so he replaced three pills with wild ginseng, making it eight pills.

[Animal Spirit Pills] One bottle contains ten pills, three bottles equals thirty pills.

Zhou Chun has also fed rock turtles [Beast Spirit Pills] before and knows how to feed them to maximize the effect.

Therefore, at this time, I directly fed the rock turtle three [Beast Spirit Pills] at one time, then let it enter the turtle breath state, and slowly digested the medicine.

He himself also walked into the meditation room, took out a [Chunyang Pill] and drank it.

When the thumb-sized yellow-brown elixir is swallowed into the mouth, a faint sweetness of honey and Chinese medicinal flavor fills the mouth.

Zhou Chun squirmed his throat and swallowed the undissolved elixir whole. Then he silently ran the exercises in the "Five Qi Chaoyang Sutra" and started practicing with the help of the medicine.

During this practice, a completely different feeling emerged from ordinary meditation practice.

When I usually breathe in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth while meditating and practicing, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth seems to be the same. It looks like a lot, but in fact there is very little spiritual energy that can be converted into mana and cultivation after refining.

However, the pure medicinal power contained in [Chun Yang Dan] is as dense as mercury, is of extremely high quality, and is very easy to absorb and refine.

Back and forth, it took Zhou Chun almost three days to completely refine the power of a [Chunyang Pill].

And it was this [Chunyang Pill] that directly saved him two or three months of practice time and helped him open an acupoint.

This powerful medicinal effect surprised and delighted Zhou Chun.

He seemed to have seen a shortcut to quickly improve his cultivation!

"No wonder the alchemy and talismans are ranked at the top of the four major cultivation skills of immortality!"

"If you don't take into account the special characteristics of the Pure Spirit Array, for immortal cultivators, the role of elixirs is indeed far more important than magical weapons, talismans, and magical arrays!"

Zhou Chun couldn't help but express his feelings, and gained a deeper understanding of the importance of elixirs.

However, although the elixir is good, it should not be taken greedily.

The so-called medicine is divided into three parts: poison. Although pills can save immortal cultivators a lot of time in meditating and practicing, no matter how skilled the alchemist is, they cannot completely eliminate the poison in the pills.

Therefore, even if ordinary cultivators, like Zhou Chun, get many elixirs at once, they would not dare to take them in succession in a short period of time, lest the poison accumulate and cause irreparable damage to the body.

According to the research and experiments of senior monks, elixirs such as [Chunyang Pill] are suitable for monks in the middle and late stages of Qi refining. Monks in the middle stage of Qi refining can take one pill every one or two months, so they don’t have to worry about the harm of poison.

Already.

Therefore, even though Zhou Chun still had seven [Chunyang Pills] in his hand at this time, he did not continue to take the medicine.

On the other hand, monster beasts have very little scruples in this aspect. It should be because monster beasts are physically strong and follow the path of bloodline sublimation. Their ability to self-remove poisons far exceeds that of human immortal cultivators.

After a few days passed like this, Zhou Chun had some free time and went to Feishifeng again.

When Zhou Chun came to Feishifeng this time, he did not go to the library to read, but made a special trip to see Zhou Daoquan, the third elder of the Zhou family.

The three elders of the Zhou family each have their own unique skills.

The great elder Zhou Mingshan is very skilled in alchemy, and most of the Zhou family's elixirs come from his hands.

The second elder, Zhou Chongshan, is proficient in formations. He once studied formations with a monk from the Zifu period of the You family. He designed both the Zhou family's mountain-protecting formation and the Pure Spirit formation with his own hands.

The third elder, Zhou Daoquan, inherited the beast-controlling skills of the Zhou family. His attainments in beast-controlling skills are as close as those of the Supreme Elder Zhou Mingde. He has cultivated two second-level spiritual pets by himself.

The clan leader, Zhou Daoyi, is said to be very good at making talismans, and his attainments in the art of controlling beasts only lag behind that of the third elder, Zhou Daoquan.

Zhou Chun came to Feishifeng to visit the third elder Zhou Daoquan this time because he wanted to ask him to help him take a look at the mysterious snake egg he got from the Mu family to see if the master of beast control knew what happened to the egg.

"Oh, is there such a strange thing? Please take out the snake egg and have a look."

On Feishifeng, Zhou Daoquan met Zhou Chun, and after hearing what he said about his purpose, he suddenly showed an unexpected look of surprise, and even asked him to take out the snake eggs.

"Elder, please look."

Zhou Chun reached out and patted the storage bag, took out the jade box containing the snake eggs, held it in both hands and handed it to Zhou Daoquan.

I saw Zhou Daoquan taking out the snake egg and taking it into his hand. He first closed his eyes and released his spiritual consciousness to examine it. Then he pinched the magic formula with his hand and used several secret techniques that Zhou Chun knew or didn't know to test and identify the snake egg.

.

"It's weird, this is really the first time I've seen such a weird thing!"

Looking at the snake egg in his hand with a frown, Zhou Daoquan thought for a while, then looked at Zhou Chun and said: "This snake egg is indeed of great research value. If you agree, please put it here first, and let me

Conduct research and experiments on it.”

"If I can figure out a way to hatch it, I will naturally let you come over and contract it to subdue it."

"If it is damaged due to my research, I will compensate you five hundred spiritual coins. What do you think?"

Zhou Chun would naturally not refuse to agree to such a good thing.

He immediately agreed: "Elder, please feel free to study it, I have no objection at all."

Zhou Daoquan was also very satisfied with his answer, and immediately nodded and said: "Well, then you can step back first. I will inform you when the results are available."

"Yes, I will take my leave, junior."

Zhou Chun bowed and left Feishifeng.
