Immortal Cultivation: Starting from Improving Spiritual Root Qualification

The young Golden Rat is extremely nimble and disappears as soon as it burrows into the bushes.

However, Zhou Xun is no ordinary person, but a real immortal cultivator.

He poured spiritual power into his eyes, and soon he could clearly see the traces of the little golden rat dozens of feet away.

"found it!"

Immediately after pouring spiritual power into his legs, he exerted force gently, and the whole person started to run lightly. The sound of his heartbeat perfectly matched the sound of his footsteps, and his steps were light and orderly, like an erratic ghost.

It was early in the morning, and the sun began to penetrate the fog, casting golden light on the earth.

His eyes were like an eagle's, always staring at the golden shadow in front of him.

Even if it is obscured by shrubs or branches, you can find it quickly.

After chasing for dozens of breaths, Zhou Xun got closer and closer to the golden rat.

Suddenly, he came to a valley, and the golden rat disappeared in a flash, and Zhou Xun hurriedly followed it.

By the time he arrived at the mouth of the valley, the Golden Rat had disappeared.

But Zhou Xun is not worried, because this valley is the lair of the Golden Rat.

The young golden rat ran straight back to his hometown in a panic. Now, he was about to catch a turtle in a jar.

Zhou Xun began to search carefully, and soon he found a cave two feet wide and five feet high in a mountain wall, just enough for one person to enter.

The cave is covered by vines and cannot be discovered without careful inspection.

Zhou Xun picked up a dry pine branch, cast a fire spell, and instantly ignited it. Then he pushed aside the vines, held his breath, and got in with a torch.

With his current level of cultivation, there would be no problem holding his breath for half an hour.

The sides of the cave were also covered with moss. As Zhou Xun went deeper, the cave became larger and larger. By the time Zhou Xun reached the end, he could already stand upright and walk.

After walking about ten feet inside, the stone walls on both sides began to become dry, and there were no longer any plants such as moss.

And as he went deeper, the spiritual energy in the cave became more and more intense.

Zhou Xun became increasingly vigilant and held the throwing spear across his chest.

After walking about a hundred feet, a hall suddenly opened up ahead.

The hall is nearly ten feet in size, with a three-foot-sized pool in the middle. There is a high platform in the center of the pool with four plants growing on it.

"Elixir!"

Two words flashed in Zhou Xun's mind.

It's a pity that Zhou Xun doesn't know them. These four plants look very much like the orchids that Zhou Xun didn't bloom in his previous life.

After counting, each plant actually had exactly seven leaves.

These leaves are green all over, just like emeralds. You can tell at a glance that they are treasured elixirs.

However, Zhou Xun had no idea of ​​picking at this time.

He was extremely vigilant, as there was still no sign of the young golden rat.

Suddenly, he felt a gust of wind coming from above his head, and Zhou Xun quickly dodged.

A golden blade flew past Zhou Xun's forehead and picked up a strand of hair.

Zhou Xun was horrified.

"I almost got caught!"

Angry in his heart, he raised his spear and stabbed the shadow in front of him.

"Pfft——" a sound.

Like a string of gourds, it pierced the young golden rat through its heart, struggled for a few times, and then died.

"When you come out in the future, you must prepare a defensive talisman!" Thinking of the golden blade, Zhou Xun was filled with fear.

I almost had my head chopped off.

After calming down, Zhou Xun picked up the throwing spear, turned around and walked out of the cave.

Just after turning around and walking a few steps, he saw Shan Xionghai coming in.

"Dahai, it was solved so quickly?" Zhou Xun asked in surprise.

"The two little ones didn't run away. They tried to hide and attack me, but I stabbed them to death one by one!" Shan Xionghai laughed and said nonchalantly.

"What about their bodies?" Zhou Xun asked.

"It's been processed! I've collected the blood, beards, and monster meat. By the way, you can also process any of them for me. The value will be greatly reduced if it's too late!" Shan Xionghai patted the big man on his back. Bao Bao said

Zhou Xun nodded, presumably Shan Xionghai dealt with it while he was looking for the cave.

He handed the throwing spear in his hand to Shan Xionghai, then pointed at the four elixirs in the center of the hall and asked:

"Those four plants seem to be elixirs, do you recognize them?"

"Elixir?" Shan Xionghai took the spear, pulled out the body of the golden rat, and looked up in the direction of Zhou Xun's finger.

"Ling Gathering Grass!" Shan Xionghai exclaimed.

There was incredible surprise in the voice.

"Ling Gathering Grass?" After hearing these three words, Zhou Xun also exclaimed.

"No wonder the concentration of spiritual energy was getting higher and higher when we came in just now. When we arrived in this hall, the concentration was even comparable to Hongyefang!"

You know, the entire Hongyefang is built on a second-order low-grade spiritual vein.

Even though most of Hongyefang's spiritual energy is bound by formations and supplied exclusively to the four major families, the concentration of spiritual energy in the entire city is comparable to ordinary first-order high-grade spiritual veins.

Although I don’t know him, Zhou Xun, the famous name of Julingcao, has also heard of it.

Ju Ling Cao, from its name, can tell that its function is to gather spiritual energy.

The concentration of spiritual energy in this cave is so high because of the spirit-gathering grass.

Because of this effect, many powerful monks like to plant this kind of spiritual grass next to caves to achieve the effect of increasing the concentration of spiritual energy.

However, what makes this spirit-gathering grass so famous is not because of its ability to gather spirits, but because of a kind of elixir - spirit-gathering pill.

The Spirit Gathering Pill, which is famous in the world of cultivating immortals, can help monks break through the bottleneck in the middle stage of Qi training. It is made from this spiritual grass as the main medicine.

As for the Spirit Gathering Pill, even for the children of the four major families of Hongyefang, only a very small number of people with extraordinary talents or great achievements can obtain it. Most people do not have this opportunity.

Each spirit-gathering grass can be used to refine several spirit-gathering pills.

It can be seen from this that the preciousness of these four spirit-gathering grasses also represents how much wealth they have.

"With it, you, me, and my second uncle all have the opportunity to become a major cultivator in the later stages of Qi training!" Shan Xionghai couldn't help but grab Zhou Xun's wrist and said excitedly.

In the later stage of Qi training, even among the four major families of Hongyefang, they can be considered high-level.

Each one is a key figure in charge of one party.

After a moment of excitement, the two calmed down.

Zhou Xun pointed at the corpse of the Golden Spirit Rat that fell on the ground:

"This Golden Rat has not been dealt with yet!"

"Ah, I almost forgot," Shan Xionghai chuckled and said with a grin:

"How much is this golden spirit rat worth? With these few spirit-gathering grasses, it is enough to buy us the resources to reach the later stage of Qi training!"

Shan Xionghai's words are true. The price of each spirit-gathering pill is such that even an ordinary monk in the late stages of Qi training would have to go bankrupt to afford it.

Soon, Shan Xionghai took care of the golden rat.

Then the two of them looked at the four spirit-gathering grasses.

"Fortunately, I brought the jade box to store the elixir this time, otherwise I would have had to make another trip!" Shan Xionghai said, taking out four jade boxes from the bag.

He carefully picked the four spirit-gathering grasses and put them gently into the jade box. Then he breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at the four jade boxes in Shan Xionghai's hand, Zhou Xun said:

"Dahai, these four plants." Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted.

"Brother, these four spirit-gathering grasses were all discovered by you. You and I can each have half of them. As for the golden spirit rat, we still have to follow the previous agreement!"

"We agreed!" Zhou Xun wanted to say more, but was interrupted again.

"Brother, I made a mistake in my judgment about the golden rat before. If it weren't for you, I might have missed it."

"There is also this cave. If it weren't for you, big brother, with my temperament, I would probably kill the golden rat and leave. I wouldn't come in at all, and I wouldn't be able to find these elixirs. Each person has half of it. Speaking of which, I took advantage. !”

Looking at Shan Xionghai's sincere eyes, Zhou Xun felt a warmth in his heart, so he nodded.

"Then it's as you said!"
