Immortal Cultivation: Starting from Improving Spiritual Root Qualification

"The head of the Song family is here to visit?"

Zhou Xun was surprised.

The head of the Song family has not only reached the ninth level of Qi training, but he is also the person in charge of the Song family. His status is respected, no less than that of ordinary foundation-building monks.

This person took the initiative to visit, which could be said to have given Zhou Xun face.

Zhou Xun naturally wouldn't care too much.

Get up immediately and go to the door to greet him personally.

"I've met the Master of the Song family and several fellow Taoists!" As soon as the door was opened, Zhou Xun was the first to salute.

The man at the head has a fair face, graceful and elegant, and is dressed in a brocade robe, which adds to his majesty.

This person is Song Zhiwen, the head of the Song family.

He was followed by four people, three of whom were Zhou Xun's old friends. As for the handsome young man whom he didn't recognize, he was probably the eldest son of the Song family head.

"I have long heard that Alchemist Zhou is a talented person, and it turned out to be true when I saw him today!" The head of the Song family smiled heartily and returned the favor.

"Master Song is so complimentary, please speak inside!" Zhou Xun made a gesture of invitation in the direction of the cave.

The head of the Song family walked into Zhou Xun's cave immediately without any courtesy, and the rest of the people followed him.

Several people came to the hall and sat down.

"The cave of Master Zhou is so beautiful!"

Looking at the spiritual plants and flowers all around, decorating the cave with vitality, the head of the Song family couldn't help but admire.

"It's just a trail, the Master of the Song family is laughing!" Zhou Xun said, brewing a pot of spiritual tea with elegant movements.

One person poured a glass and sent it over, showing the friendship of the landlord.

"Alchemist Zhou's promotion to the upper level is indeed a great event for me, Qingyue Fang. The Song family, as the landlord of this place, will present a second-level elixir of worry-free grass and a second-level low-level alchemy inheritance as a congratulatory gift. I hope that Alchemist Zhou will not dislike it!"

The head of the Song family gently brushed his hand on his waist, and two antique jade boxes appeared on the stone table.

"No reward for no merit, how dare Zhou accept such a heavy gift, please show me, the head of the Song family!"

The Song family attaches great importance to gifts and gifts, so you must ask for something.

"In that case, I will tell you directly!"

"I came here to do two things,"

"The first is to celebrate Alchemist Zhou's promotion to a top-grade alchemist, and the second is to invite Alchemist Zhou to join our Song family and serve as guest minister!"

Zhou Xun thought for a moment and declined politely:

"Zhou is a casual cultivator who just wants to practice alchemy and has never thought about joining any force. Please forgive me, Master Song."

With his situation, he couldn't stay in one place forever.

Hearing Zhou Xun's refusal, Song Zhiwen was not angry, but continued to speak:

"Alchemist Zhou, why don't you listen to my Song family's conditions and then refuse?"

Hearing what the head of the Song family said, Zhou Xun nodded in agreement.

"Please give me your instructions, Master Song!"

"First, if Master Zhou agrees to become a guest of our Song family, he will receive an annual salary of 200 spirit stones unconditionally."

"Secondly, after serving as guest minister, our Song family's treasure trove, except for the inherited skills and secret techniques of our family, all other treasures and skills are open to Alchemist Zhou. As long as the contribution is sufficient, they can be exchanged!"

"Third, if Alchemist Zhou joins the Song family, he will not have any mandatory tasks. Even if there is a need for alchemy, whether you do it or not depends entirely on Alchemist Zhou's will. At the same time, we will also reward you with contribution points and spiritual stones!"

"I wonder what Alchemy Master Zhou wants?"

The head of the Song family finished all the conditions in one breath, and then looked at Zhou Xun expectantly.

To be honest, the Song family leader's conditions cannot be said to be insincere.

But Zhou Xun really couldn't stay in Qingyuefang forever.

Seeing that Zhou Xun didn't agree at all, his face hesitated, as if he had something to hide.

Song Zhiwen continued:

"If Alchemist Zhou has any concerns, please feel free to speak out!"

Zhou Xun nodded after hearing this:

"It's okay if I join the Song family, but Zhou's heart is set on the road, so I'm afraid he won't be able to stay in Qingyuefang forever."

"If I leave one day in the future, the Song family cannot stop me,"

"If the head of the Song family agrees to this, I would like to be the guest of the Song family!"

"So that's what happened, there's no problem!" Song Zhiwen agreed without hesitation!

"In that case, Zhou Xun has met the head of the family!" Zhou Xun stood up and bowed his hands!

The head of the Song family also stood up and returned the gift to Zhou Xun.

Zhou Xun had several considerations before joining the Song family.

First of all, the Song family is the owner of Qingyuefang. The Song family leader's conditions can be said to be full of sincerity, and he agreed to all Zhou Xun's requests.

If Zhou Xun refuses again, he will definitely offend the Song family, and the gain outweighs the loss.

Secondly, the Song family is indeed extremely generous. They even opened the family treasury to Zhou Xun. With the Song family's connections and financial resources, there must be many second-level elixirs in the treasury.

For Zhou Xun, this meant a large number of opportunities to improve his spiritual root qualifications, which he naturally could not miss.

Thirdly, the relationship with the Song family is deep. The aunt of the head of the Song family is the Taoist companion of the True Alchemy monk of the Yunguang Sect. She has become a guest of the Song family. Even if she leaves Qingyuefang in the future, it will add some security.

Zhou Xun joined the Song family and everyone was happy.

Before leaving, the head of the Song family left behind a guest token. With the token, Zhou Xun was able to enter the Song family land.

"After I refine this second-level elixir, I will go to the Song family's treasure house to have a look!"

Time passed by, and two months flew by.

On this day, Zhou Xun entered the quiet room to practice as usual.

Suddenly he was attracted by the black armored armadillo eggs in the corner.

At this time, there was a weak spiritual power fluctuation from the beast egg.

According to what is said in the art of controlling beasts, when beast eggs emerge from their shells, there will occasionally be fluctuations in spiritual power.

"Could it be that it will be hatched today?" Zhou Xun was delighted.

Picking up the egg and holding it gently in his hand, he could faintly feel the heartbeat and subtle movements inside.

He confirmed that the mysterious armadillo was about to emerge from its shell.

Zhou Xun immediately followed the method of controlling beasts and input mana to warm the eggs.

This is to let the mysterious armadillo become familiar with his aura.

In this way, after the monster beast breaks out of its shell, it will automatically become very close to Zhou Xun.

In this way, even without signing a spiritual pet contract, you can still control this mysterious armored armadillo.

Every day that follows, after Zhou Xun has practiced, he will enter the method to warm the beast eggs according to the method recorded in the art of controlling beasts.

Just like that, half a month passed.

"Click"

A slight noise.

A small crack appeared in the egg's shell.

Then the top of the animal egg gradually sunk inward.

Next a sharp claw poked out, then two claws.

Then the head, and finally the entire body emerged from the animal egg shell.

After coming out, the black-armored armadillo immediately locked onto Zhou Xun's direction and crawled over slowly.

Zhou Xun gently held it up with his hand, about two-thirds the size of his palm.

The black-armored armadillo felt the familiar scent and rubbed Zhou Xun's wrist affectionately.

Zhou Xun discovered that his spiritual pet was somewhat different from the recorded black-armored armadillo.

On the scales on his back, there were several golden filaments that were barely noticeable.

"Could it be that the essence of the elixir caused this black-armored armadillo to mutate?" Zhou Xun speculated in his mind.

If this is the case, his spiritual pet may be able to break through the shackles of his bloodline in the future and maybe reach a higher level.

He took out a spirit feeding pill, fed one to the black armored armadillo, and put it into the spirit beast bag.
