Immortal Cultivation: Starting from Improving Spiritual Root Qualification

"Could it be that you were also called back?" Tieshan Zhenjun looked at Zhou Xun, then realized something and said softly:

"It seems that the decisive battle to determine the ownership of the South China Sea is about to begin!"

Hearing this, Zhou Xun's face was solemn and he nodded slowly.

In such a great war, let alone the cultivators in the early stage of the Nascent Soul, even the great cultivators might be in danger of falling.

In the war more than 3,000 years ago, three great cultivators of the human race fell directly, and one-third of the high-level people in Zhongzhou were directly defeated.

Under such a tragic situation, the territory of the South China Sea was defended.

Now that the demon race has made a comeback, it must have made full preparations.

It can be foreseen that this war will be even more tragic.

After a few simple chats,

they entered the fairy city together and went straight to the Zhenhai Hall to return the mission.

As soon as he entered the city, Zhou Xun felt that Zhenhai Fairy City seemed to be shrouded in a heavy haze at this moment.

The air was filled with a tense and solemn atmosphere, like the oppressive silence before the storm.

On the streets, the originally bustling and lively shouting had disappeared, replaced by the hurried footsteps of the monks,

and everyone's face was full of tension and solemnity.

From time to time, a series of spiritual lights flashed across the sky, which were war supplies transported from Zhongzhou.

At the same time, a group of monks wearing spiritual armor came out of the Tianxing Hall in a line, led by the leading monk,

and headed to the Xiancheng station.

On the city wall, the defensive formation shone with mysterious light, and the formation masters were busy shuttling through it, constantly checking to ensure that they could play the greatest role when the war came.

The entire Xiancheng was immersed in an extremely tense atmosphere, like a huge gunpowder barrel, waiting for a spark to explode.

When they arrived at the Zhenhai Hall, the guards were also serious, no longer free and easy as before.

After checking the token and confirming that it was correct, they were allowed to enter.

Arriving at the center of the hall, I saw Master Qianchuan lowering his head, holding a jade slip and writing something.

As the lord of the Immortal City, the entire logistics of this war fell on his head.

Seeing Zhou Xun coming in,

Master Qianchuan forced a smile, his eyes could not hide his fatigue.

"Brother Zhou, you are here!"

"Brother, why don't you find more people to help!" Zhou Xun said.

"The war is imminent, do as much as you can, I don't know how many people will die this time!" Master Qianchuan sighed slightly.

"I am in the rear, it is not as dangerous as the front-line soldiers, I should do my best!"

Hearing this, Zhou Xun nodded in understanding.

If they lose this battle, other cultivators still have the entire Zhongzhou as a retreat, but Master Qianchuan and other South Sea cultivators will really become rootless duckweed.

"Brother, are you here to hand in the mission?"

"That's right. I'm returning from Polaris Island with a large army. I wonder what to do next?"

"I will assign the city west garrison to you, but the next arrangements need to wait for the three alliance leaders to decide!"

Qianchuan Zhenjun said.

"Your assistance to Polaris Island this time has consumed a lot of resources. I will allocate a batch of spiritual stones to supplement you!"

"Thank you, brother!"

Zhou Xun was overjoyed when he heard this.

These five war flying boats are indeed powerful, but correspondingly, the consumption of spiritual stones is also huge.

Each attack consumes at least one million spiritual stones.

That is, these consumptions are the burden of the Immortal City, otherwise, with his current wealth, it would be difficult to support them.

But after the battle on Polaris Island, the spiritual stone reserves were consumed by more than half, and he was simply unable to cope with the next war.

But now, he has a good relationship with the 'Logistics Manager', so he naturally doesn't have to worry about consumption.

"This is the only power I have now. I'm glad I can help you!"

"Remember, come back alive!"

"Don't worry!" Zhou Xun laughed and left Zhenhai Fairy City with the token, and then arranged all his subordinates in the garrison in the west of the city.

Then, Zhou Xun followed Tieshan Zhenjun to visit Tianci Zhenjun.

Speaking of which, the three of them had not met for nearly a hundred years.

After a while, they arrived in front of his cave.

He reached his waist and took out a sound transmission talisman, whispered a few words, and punched into the cave.

In less than a cup of tea, the door of the cave opened from the inside, and an old scholar with a fair face and gray hair walked out.

It was Tianci Zhenjun.

"Brother Dao, look who this is!" Zhou Xun greeted with a smile, and then let the person behind him out.

"Brother Ji, how are you!"

"Brother Hu, you... you are back!" Tianci Zhenjun was overjoyed.

After Tieshan Zhenjun formed his Nascent Soul, he was sent to Wuhuan Island for garrison, which was several decades ago.

"Alas, you shouldn't have come back!"

Suddenly, Tianci Zhenjun seemed to think of something, and his face froze.

Zhou Xun naturally understood that he was talking about the decisive battle between the human and demon races.

Such a battle, even a Nascent Soul cultivator, is like a small boat in the sea, always in danger of capsizing.

"Brother Ji, you know me, such a grand occasion, how can Hu miss it!" Tieshan Zhenjun laughed.

For him,

Being able to come to Zhongzhou and condense a Nascent Soul is already a gain in this life, as for the future outcome, he doesn't care.

Now he cares more about living a wonderful life.

If he can't participate in such a big event as the battle between humans and demons, it would be a lifelong regret.

As for life and death, he should have passed away back then.

"My four friends from Tianhan City, now 'Brother Qu' and 'Brother Zhao' are far away in the East Wilderness, only Brother Hu and I are in Zhongzhou,"

"If you leave too, who should I find to drink with in the future!" Tianci Zhenjun Ji Yin sighed.

"Isn't there Brother Zhou? His talent is no less than yours!"

"In the future, two great monks will emerge from Tianhan City, which will be a good story for the human race!" Tieshan Zhenren said with a hearty smile.

"Okay, the two Taoist brothers should go in and talk. In this battle, the three of us should help each other!"

At this time, Zhou Xun interrupted the two.

"Yes, yes, yes, it's rare for us to get together, so we should celebrate it well!" Tianci Zhenjun also came back to his senses,

pulling one with each hand, and walked straight to the cave.

Coming to the reception room and sitting down,

Tianci Zhenjun slapped his hand on his waist, and a three-foot-sized wine jar appeared in front of him.

The whole body is amber in color, the material is like jade but not jade, exuding a warm luster. The body of the jar is engraved with ancient runes, and there is a faint spiritual power flowing.

As the lid of the wine jar was gently opened, a rich and mellow aroma instantly spread, as if it could attract people's souls.

"This is 'Spirit Monkey Drunk', which is brewed with the fourth-level spiritual fruit as the main material and the essence of a fourth-level middle-grade demon beast's inner elixir." Tianci Zhenjun introduced slowly,

Then took out three wine glasses and began to pour,

The wine poured out of the wine jar, showing a crystal clear amber color, like a flowing gem.

"I only have this small jar, just waiting to drink with the two of you!"

He raised the wine glass,

"Come on, cheers!" Tieshan Zhenjun also raised his wine glass, his heroic feelings overflowed.

Zhou Xun clinked his glasses with Tianci Zhenjun, the wine went into his throat, and a mellow spiritual power spread in his body.

It felt as if a warm torrent instantly surged through the body, and every limb was surrounded by a comfortable feeling.

"Since there is such good wine, how can there not be good food!" Zhou Xun smiled lightly, slapped his hand on his waist, and several spiritual lights flew out,

turned into four jade plates and fell in front of him,

then he made a hand gesture and removed the light shield above.

Instantly, a very strong aroma dissipated. After taking a deep breath, even the spiritual power in the body seemed to be running a little faster.

"This dish is called 'Steamed Crab Sticks'. It is made by a fourth-level spiritual chef I invited. It uses the blood and flesh of a fourth-level middle-grade demon crab as the main material, supplemented by a variety of rare spiritual materials."

"This spiritual food not only tastes smooth, but also contains rich spiritual power, which is very beneficial to cultivation!"

"You two Taoist brothers may as well give it a try!"

"Fourth-level spiritual banquet, I have also seen records in the classics. I didn't expect to see the real thing today. It's all thanks to my brother!" Hearing this, Tieshan Zhenjun's appetite moved.

He picked up a chopstick without hesitation and put it into his mouth. Instantly, a delicious taste bloomed on the tip of his tongue. It was the most delicious dish he had ever tasted in his life!

After the crab meat was eaten, a pure spiritual power rose and filled the meridians.

After a little refining, it turned into magic power and merged into the dantian.

"It's really the best food in the world!" Tieshan Zhenjun praised it and continued to taste it.

So in Tianci Zhenjun's cave, the three of them sat around, drinking wine and eating meat, chatting happily.

They all knew that this was the last gathering before the war.

After today, whether they can gather again in the future is probably uncertain.

The feast lasted for two days.

None of the three people used their magic power to dissolve the alcohol, and they all got drunk.

It was not until the third day that they woke up, so Zhou Xun got up and said goodbye and returned to his cave.

When he visited Tianci Zhenjun, Jiang Wanning had already cleaned it up with the Chiwu Spirit Turtle Earth Yuan Beast.

The whole cave was brand new, and there was no feeling that it had not been inhabited for several years.

Looking at the cave that was no different from the original one, Zhou Xun felt relieved.

In the following days, Zhou Xun did not continue to practice. He either went out to visit friends or received guests.

The same was true for the other cultivators in Xiancheng.

On the eve of this war, everyone got a rare peace.

Including Wang Erniu.

Today, he is still stuck at the peak of Jindan.

Standing in front of Zhou Xun, the whole person is like a giant sword that soars into the sky, ready to be unsheathed at any time.

The two chatted briefly and got drunk for a day.

"Brother, if I encounter an accident, Shun'er and the others will be asked to take care of by you!"

"And Xiu'e, please tell her for me that if there is an afterlife, Erniu must be with her." Drunk, Wang Erniu confided his thoughts.

He has been unable to advance to Yuanying for a long time,

the biggest problem is his state of mind.

He has been away from home for nearly a hundred years and has never seen his family again.

Especially Lin Xiu'e, her own qualifications are not high. Although she barely builds the foundation with the support of Wang Erniu,

that's all.

According to the life span of the foundation-building cultivator, she will die in a few decades.

Wang Erniu has not been around for nearly half of his life, and he feels guilty.

"After this battle, let's return to the East Wilderness!" Zhou Xun sighed.

In the East Wasteland today, the vitality of heaven and earth has been restored, so there is no need to worry about the problem of condensing the infant.

"I hope so!"

After only two days, Wang Erniu received an order from True Lord Jiujian to rush to the southern front with him.

Three days later, True Lord Tieshan and True Lord Tianci also received an order to lead an army of 30,000 cultivators to set off.

As time passed, there were fewer and fewer cultivators in the Immortal City.

Finally, it was Zhou Xun's turn.

Zhenhai Hall,

Zhou Xun and Qianchuan Zhenjun sat opposite each other.

"Oh, I thought that my brother could only delay you for half a month. Now the three major alliance leaders have given orders to transfer you to the southern front!"

"At the same time, escort a group of spirit stones there!"

At this point, Zhou Xun understood why he was able to stay until the end.

Naturally, Qianchuan Zhenjun hoped to keep Zhou Xun in the fairy city and stagger the day of the most brutal decisive battle.

But he, Zhou Xun, was the one who defeated thousands of demon emperors.

In terms of strength, they are definitely the top group below the great monks.

How could such a person be allowed to stay behind?

"Thank you Dao Brother for your good offices. I will keep this in mind for Zhou Xun!"

After drinking the last glass of wine, Zhou Xun took the flag and said goodbye.

Then he brought Jiang Wanning, Diyuan Beast and Chiwu Spirit Turtle to the station in the west of the city.

Wei Changan and others had taken away two-thirds of the 30,000 monks under his command, leaving only 10,000.

After arriving at the warehouse, he used the command flag to retrieve tens of thousands of high-grade spiritual stones, then set up the two war ships and headed straight for the southern front.

Half a day later, Zhou Xun arrived at the entrance of the defense line.

At this moment, a middle-aged man wearing a black cloak and a resolute face walked inside. He was the current number one monk in Central Continent, True Lord Yama.

"Brother Zhou is finally here, I've been waiting for a long time!" Lord Yama laughed loudly.

"Don't blame me for transferring you here!"

"Brother Dao, you are serious. How can Zhou be absent from such a major event concerning the ownership of the South China Sea!" Zhou Xun waved his hand.

To be honest, with his current strength, he really wants to fight with the fourth-level high-grade demon king to see where he is compared with the great monks.

"I knew Brother Zhou would not be willing to waste time in the rear!"

"We monks compete with the sky for our lives. If we don't have that momentum, how can we become immortals!" True Lord Yan Mo was extremely domineering. He took Zhou Xun's wrist and walked towards the highest tent.

As soon as he entered, he saw dozens of pairs of eyes looking towards him:

"Tianyi Zhenjun", "Yuanlang Zhenjun", "Qianjue Zhenjun".

All twelve great monks from Central Continent, without exception, were present.

In addition, "Nine Swordsmen True Lord", "Fengqi True Lord", "Xuelian True Lord" and other great powers in the middle Nascent Soul stage are also here.

Including rising stars such as Tianci Zhenjun and Thunder Prison Zhenjun,

The dozens of people in the camp gathered together the most powerful monks in the entire Central Continent.

"Zhenjun Wangchuan is here!"

"It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Zhou!"

Seeing him coming in, many Nascent Soul cultivators greeted him one after another.

"When we were rescuing the southern front, Zhou Daoyou defeated the Thousand Crabs Demon King. It can be said that he became famous in one battle!"

"Then Ji Xing Island scared off the Black Island Demon King, which made our human race even more popular!"

"You're welcome!" Zhou Xun smiled and held his hands.

Immediately, he was led by True Lord Yama to sit in front of True Lord Nine Swords.

In terms of ranking, it is exactly thirteen,

The first seat under the great monk!
