Cultivating Immortals in the Family: Rising from Beast Familiarity

Chapter 23 Zhou Zhengyong’s request

After giving the mysterious snake egg to Zhou Daoquan, the third elder of the Zhou family who was most proficient in the art of controlling beasts, for study, Zhou Chun paid no attention to the matter.

Next, it would be best for Zhou Daoquan to figure out how to hatch the egg.

Even if he fails to research it and destroys the mysterious snake egg, Zhou Chun can still receive up to 500 spiritual coins as compensation.

No matter what, he won't lose.

In the next six months, Zhou Chun's life rhythm returned to the state before going to Mu's house.

It's just that because more and more casual cultivators come to Jiufeng Ridge to practice, the time that Zhou family monks have to guard Jingling Pavilion has been reduced.

For many casual cultivators who are not high in cultivation and weak in fighting skills, the safest way to earn spiritual coins is to guard Jingling Pavilion for various cultivating sects, families, and cities.

Compared with going out to take risks and fighting monsters and beasts for spiritual resources, guarding Jingling Pavilion is more laborious and less rewarding, but it is safer and more stable.

A safe and stable job is definitely sought after by most people in any world.

If someone does not have to supervise these casual cultivators, and at the same time save some spiritual coins, the Zhou family can even completely outsource the task of guarding the Jingling Pavilion to the casual cultivators.

It is precisely because of these casual cultivators participating in this arduous task that disciples of the Zhou family like Zhou Chun can have more time to meditate and practice and learn other skills of cultivating immortals.

During the past six months, Zhou Chun took a [Chunyang Pill] almost every fifty days. Every time he took the pill, he could open an acupoint within fifty days.

It is basically certain that after he takes all eight [Chunyang Pills], his cultivation level will definitely be promoted to the eighth level of the Qi Refining Stage.

At the same time, his spiritual pet Rock Turtle has been improving rapidly after taking [Beast Spirit Pills] continuously. It is estimated that in another year and a half, it will be possible for him to catch up with his master.

On this day, Zhou Chunzheng returned from reading in the library on Feishifeng, and saw his clan brother Zhou Zhengyong waiting outside the gate of his courtyard.

After seeing him return at this time, Zhou Zhengyong immediately stood up with a happy face and said: "Thirteenth brother, you are finally back."

"Brother Yong, do you have anything to do with my little brother?"

Zhou Chun looked at Zhou Zhengyong with a slightly surprised expression, a look of doubt flashing in his eyes.

Looking at Zhou Zhengyong's behavior, it's probably not for any official reason.

"It's like this. Yesterday when I was on duty for my brother, I was chatting with a casual cultivator. I accidentally heard the other person mention that he had seen a group of red-tailed monkeys in a place."

"Thirteenth brother, you are also majoring in the art of controlling beasts. You should know that wherever groups of red-tailed monkeys appear, there is a high probability that there will be something that can purify their blood and improve their cultivation."

"My brother, the red-tailed monkey, has been stagnant in the first-level middle-level realm for several years. He has taken a lot of [Beast Spirit Pills] but has not made a breakthrough. This is probably because his bloodline is not pure enough."

"So this time, Brother Wei wants to ask the Thirteenth Brother to do a favor and accompany Brother Wei to that place to see if there is a chance to get a spiritual object to help the spirit pet break through!"

When Zhou Zhengyong said this, he looked at Zhou Chun expectantly.

Sure enough, he came here for personal matters.

Zhou Chun understood in his heart, and then facing Zhou Zhengyong's expectant eyes, he pondered for a moment, then nodded and said: "Brother Yong, since you have found me, based on our relationship, I have no reason not to help.

"

After agreeing to this matter, without waiting for Zhou Zhengyong to happily express his thanks, he continued: "Brother Yong, you are just hearing about this matter and have never seen it with your own eyes. In my opinion, it is better to inquire about the situation first and find out what is going on."

After finding out the details about the group of red-tailed monkeys, it’s not too late to take action.”

After he said this, he saw the joy on Zhou Zhengyong's face dimmed slightly, and embarrassment and shame appeared in his eyes.

call!

Zhou Zhengyong took a deep breath and quickly adjusted his mentality and calmed down. Then he looked at Zhou Chun seriously and nodded and said: "Thirteenth brother, what you said is that I came here just after I got the news."

I am indeed a little too eager to find you."

After finishing speaking, he said in a deep voice: "After brother investigates clearly, I will come to Thirteenth Brother for your help."

Hearing this, Zhou Chun also sincerely warned: "Brother Yong, you should be more careful. There is a chance that among the casual cultivators who come to the family to practice, there may be people who have practiced here before!"

"Thank you, Thirteenth Brother, for reminding me. Please be careful for my brother's sake."

Zhou Zhengyong nodded and left immediately.

And looking at Zhou Zhengyong's leaving figure, Zhou Chun couldn't help but think of his rock turtle.

In terms of potential, the rock turtle is obviously stronger and more outstanding than Zhou Zhengyong's red-tailed monkey.

Basically, as long as it is cultivated properly and the money is spent, it is not impossible to promote it to a first-class high-grade monster within five years.

But by that time, the rock turtle's bloodline potential will have reached its upper limit.

If you want to advance the Rock Turtle to the second level in the future, you will have to do the same as Zhou Zhengyong and find ways to find some spiritual objects that can purify or alienate its bloodline.

But that should be something he will consider after he has cultivated his own foundation, and there is no need to think too much about it now.

Zhou Zhengyong is undoubtedly an activist, and the next day Zhou Chun heard that he had asked for leave and left the family.

Then seven days later, Zhou Zhengyong, who had just returned from outside for less than a day, found Zhou Chun's residence again.

"Thirteenth brother, I have personally gone to the spot to observe and confirmed that there is a group of red-tailed monkeys there, the number is about twelve or thirteen. The monkey king is a first-order high-grade monster, and the rest are first-order mid-grade monsters.

Beasts and first-order low-grade monsters.”

"And I have also seen clearly that in the valley where the monkeys live, there is indeed a strange fruit growing. If I am not mistaken, it should be the Zhuyang fruit."

In the living room, after Zhou Zhengyong was welcomed in by Zhou Chun, as soon as he sat down, he didn't even bother to drink tea, and he hurriedly talked about what he had discovered when he went out in the past few days.

His impatience also left Zhou Chun speechless.

But if you think about it carefully, it seems normal.

Generally, monks who major in the art of controlling beasts have somewhat similar personalities to those of their spiritual pets.

Since Zhou Zhengyong chose the impatient red-tailed monkey as his spiritual pet, his personality is probably similar to that of his spiritual pet.

Whether it is Zhou Chun's previous spiritual pet "Wind Shadow Leopard" or his current spiritual pet Rock Turtle, they all seem to be consistent with his cautious and steady personality.

At this time, he suppressed the words he wanted to persuade, and Zhou Chun couldn't help but follow Zhou Zhengyong's words and said: "According to what you said, brother Yong, I'm afraid the two of us alone are not enough to deal with so many red-tailed monkeys. I'm afraid we have to

Please ask a powerful elder to hold the line!"

Hearing what he said, Zhou Zhengyong also frowned and couldn't help but sigh softly: "Yes, we have to ask an elder who is in the late stage of Qi refining to join the formation to ensure safety!"

"But which elder should I invite?"

He frowned and thought about the candidates for Zhou's elders who had a good relationship with him.

When asking for help for your own private matters, you must only ask people with whom you have a good relationship.

In this way, not only is it easier to talk about remuneration, but it is also less likely to cause conflicts when taking action.

Therefore, after lowering his head and thinking for a full two-quarters of an hour, Zhou Zhengyong raised his head to look at Zhou Chun who was waiting for him quietly and said, "How about the twenty-seventh uncle Zhou Jiapeng? His spiritual pet is the flying monster Iron Feathered Eagle.

He has been trained to the first level of high-grade, and can carry one person flying. With his old man to support him, this trip will be safe."

When Zhou Chun heard this, he nodded and said, "If it's Uncle Twenty-seven, then there's no problem."

The twenty-seventh uncle, Zhou Jiapeng, is considered a relatively famous figure among the monks of the "family" generation.

Its own cultivation level is not particularly outstanding, and it is only at the tenth level of the Qi Refining Stage, but the spiritual pet it has cultivated, the Iron Feathered Eagle, is a rare spiritual pet that can carry people and fly, and its combat effectiveness is also very good.

With this iron-feathered eagle at his side, as long as he is not ambushed and attacked, almost no one in the Qi Refining Stage can keep him alive.

After all, even if you have a flying magic weapon in your hand, with the magic power and flying speed of the Qi Refining Stage monk, it is far inferior to flying monsters like the Iron Feathered Eagle.

Zhou Zhengyong actually had the ability to ask this clan uncle for help, which also surprised Zhou Chun.

But when he remembered Zhou Zhengyong's origin, he seemed to understand the reason.

Unlike his family's ancestors who were all mortals for several generations, Zhou Zhengyong's father was also a cultivator of the Zhou family, but he died accidentally while performing a mission outside.

If his father is still alive, he is also a monk of the "family" generation, and he might have had a relationship with his twenty-seventh uncle Zhou Jiapeng back then.

Of course, there is no need for Zhou Chun to get to the bottom of this.

After making this plan, Zhou Zhengyong immediately went to look for his twenty-seventh uncle Zhou Jiapeng, and Zhou Chun also prepared the things he needed to go out.
