Chapter 786 Nangong Breaks Through, Life and Death Are Determined by Fate [Subscribe]
Kunwu Mountain.
After Zhou Chun returned to Kunwu Mountain, he also called Lu Yuanjun to ask him about his opinion on the revived spiritual root.
"Mu Sang, in your opinion, what grade of spiritual wood is that spiritual root? Could it be the legendary sixth-grade sacred wood?"
Zhou Chun looked directly at Lu Yuanjun and asked the question in his heart in a serious tone.
From the fact that Chongxuan Demon King valued the spiritual wood so much, it can be known that it cannot be a fifth-grade spiritual wood.
Because for Chongxuan Demon King, even a fifth-grade top-grade spiritual wood would have no effect.
Moreover, the situation in that mountain stream looked like it had been bombarded by a heavenly thunder tribulation.
Judging from the fact that there was no grass growing in the mountain stream, I am afraid that the power of that heavenly thunder tribulation was far beyond the heavenly thunder tribulation that the fourth-grade monster beast had gone through.
However, Zhou Chun did not know whether the fifth-grade spiritual wood would encounter a heavenly thunder tribulation when it was promoted to the sixth-grade.
Even in the ancient times in the world of immortal cultivation, the sixth-grade sacred wood was a legendary thing, extremely rare and precious.
It is very likely that they were already at the sixth level before there were human cultivators in this world.
Moreover, those few sixth-level sacred trees were also cut down by powerful people of the human race or alien races in ancient times to be used for sacrifice and treasure refining.
So now Zhou Chun has no way to judge what grade the revived spiritual root is.
However, he knows that Lu Yuanjun, as a wood spirit, is very authoritative in the identification of the grade of spiritual wood, and may be able to solve his doubts.
Unexpectedly, after listening to his questions, Lu Yuanjun also showed a look of embarrassment, and replied with an embarrassed face: "Master, it is difficult for Mu Sang to make an accurate judgment on this."
At this point, he further explained: "The tenacity and strength of the vitality contained in that spiritual root is indeed not comparable to the fifth-level spiritual wood, but to say whether it belongs to the sixth-level sacred wood, Mu Sang dare not make a conclusion!"
"Even you can't judge it?"
Zhou Chun frowned, and was also a little surprised by his answer.
Then he waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's do this for now, go and do your own thing!"
"Yes, Mu Sang, I'll take my leave."
Seeing that he didn't pursue the matter any further, Lu Yuanjun was relieved and quickly took the initiative to retreat.
After hesitating for a moment, Zhou Chun gave up the idea of asking the incarnation of Tai Geng God.
Although the spiritual root has been revived successfully, it is obviously not possible to restore it to its full state in ten or a hundred years.
Even if it is really a sixth-level sacred tree, it is of no great use to Zhou Chun now.
So it is better to let Chongxuan Demon King take care of it first and talk about it later.
Thinking of this, Zhou Chun gave Lu Yuanjun an order to find the Nine Blades Barbarian Saint, and then took a [Hunyuan Xuanzhen Pill] to refine it.
This [Hunyuan Xuanzhen Pill] is also effective for the mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, but the effect is not as good as that for the mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators. One pill can save Zhou Chun about fifteen years of practice, and if five pills are added together, it can save seventy or eighty years.
It took him a relatively short time to refine such an elixir, only half a year was enough.
Two years later, Zhou Chun received a message that the five fifth-level middle-grade talismans that he had previously entrusted Tianyi Divine Master to help refine had been made and could be taken.
After he learned about this, he personally went to Tianyi Sect and took the five talismans from Tianxuan Zhenren.
According to Zhou Chun's personal needs, three of the five fifth-level middle-grade talismans were attack talismans, and the other two were defense and escape talismans.
The talisman paper used to make the three attack talismans was the dragon skin of the Blood Flame Dragon King, so all of them were fire-attribute attack talismans.
With the power of the fifth-level middle-grade talismans, even a great cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage would have to take it seriously.
If the three were used together, a great cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage would probably be embarrassed.
The defense talismans and escape talismans were made of the skin of the fifth-level middle-grade Tianpeng Monster King as talisman paper.
If a Jindan-stage cultivator could hold these two talismans, it would not be a problem for him to escape from an early-stage Yuanying cultivator or even an ordinary middle-stage Yuanying cultivator.
After Zhou Chun got the five talismans, he sealed them up separately in the best soul-sealing jade box.
This thing had no use for him, but it could become the real treasure of the Zhou family, and its importance was no less than that of the fifth-level puppet.
When sealed in the best soul-sealing jade box, it was enough to ensure that they could retain most of their power after two or three thousand years.
At this time, Zhou Chun's previous reward for his contribution in the war against foreign races was also fully fulfilled.
Just when Zhou Chun took back the five fifth-level talismans and refined the third [Hunyuan Xuanzhen Pill], an invitation letter from the Purple Qi Sect of Xia Kingdom was sent to the Zhou family.
It turned out that the Grand Elder of the Purple Qi Sect, Nangong Wuqing, had successfully broken through to the late Yuanying stage, and specially convened a grand cultivator celebration and invited Zhou Chun to attend the ceremony.
Nangong Wuqing had performed well in the previous war and was willing to give up some rare spiritual objects, so he accumulated merits and exchanged them for a [Pure Yang Breaking Barrier Pill] that Yuanyang Venerable took out as a reward. Zhou Chun had known about this for a long time.
In fact, because several great monks died in the war, and many of the current late Yuanying great monks had a short lifespan, when rewarding merits after the war, Yuanying middle-stage monks with outstanding talents like Nangong Wuqing were treated preferentially and exchanged for many spiritual objects that helped to break through the late Yuanying.
Now that Nangong Wuqing has successfully broken through the late Yuanying, it can be said that he lived up to expectations.
Nangong Wuqing had helped the Zhou family a lot in the war. Since he personally sent the invitation letter, Zhou Chun would definitely give him this face.
Therefore, when he finished refining the [Hunyuan Xuanzhen Pill] and came out of retreat, he read the celebration time on the invitation letter, and then he put off taking the pill and thought about how to give gifts.
Before Zhou Zhiying successfully formed a baby, the Ziqi Sect where Nangong Wuqing was was not stingy and sent a very precious [Tiangang Wind Copper], which happened to be refined into Zhou Zhiying's own life magic weapon.
Now that Nangong Wuqing is holding a celebration for the great monks, Zhou Chun must not be stingy.
He suddenly remembered the [Fire Crystal God Iron] ore he got from the Ice and Fire Demon Ape's nest. In addition to a large amount of high-purity [Fire Crystal God Iron], it seemed to be accompanied by other fire-attributed spiritual ores.
Before, he just cut some ore from it, smelted it into spiritual gold, and handed it to Liehuo Zhenren to refine magic weapons.
The remaining ore was still managed by Feng Yuanjun, and was used to cultivate the "Meat Ganoderma".
Thinking of this, Zhou Chun went to Feng Yuanjun's nest to see if he could extract some precious fire-attributed spiritual ore for gifts.
Speaking of which, Feng Yuanjun's life is really beautiful now.
Because of the existence of the "Meat Ganoderma", she has now restored her eight-winged fire phoenix style, and her cultivation is still improving rapidly.
And compared to Fushanjun and Lu Yuanjun who are still responsible for finding the Nine-blade Barbarian Saint, she is almost not disturbed and can practice wholeheartedly.
Of course, these can also be said to be what she deserves, after all, she did pay a huge price before.
Zhou Chun went to the door, and with the help of Feng Yuanjun, he successfully separated and extracted a rare fire-attributed spiritual ore [Zhiyang Fire Crystal] from the ore.
In terms of rarity, this [Zhiyang Fire Crystal] is much stronger than that [Tiangang Wind Copper], and is enough to be used to refine spiritual treasures.
However, the [Supreme Yang Fire Crystals] refined by Zhou Chun were in small particles and could only be used to melt into magic weapons to enhance the power of magic weapons.
With a gift of sufficient quality, Zhou Chun set off quickly.
Because he was invited to attend the celebration this time, there would be no danger, so he specially brought his wife and children with him.
The family was also traveling, and they traveled slowly all the way to Xia Country.
Speaking of which, this was the first time that the three of them had traveled together in the world of cultivation since Zhou Xinyuan was born.
Although Zhou Xinyuan was already an adult man in his teens at this time, this experience of traveling together in the world of cultivation still made the three of them feel fresh and happy, so they cherished it.
If time did not allow it, the three of them might have traveled farther and spent more time.
In this way, they traveled to many countries along the way. After traveling for more than half a year, the family of three arrived in the territory of Xia Country.
Xia State itself is a relatively large country, with two long-standing forces, Zhengyang Palace and Ziqi Sect, and two other major forces with Yuanying-stage cultivators.
Before Nangong Wuqing rose to power, Xia State had always respected Zhengyang Palace.
Even if Nangong Wuqing later had the combat power of a great cultivator, this situation could not be changed.
However, with Nangong Wuqing's breakthrough to the late Yuanying stage, this situation is likely to change soon.
After all, the late Yuanying great cultivator of Zhengyang Palace has already determined that his life span is not much longer. Even if he has benefited from the longevity spiritual objects taken out by several previous Huashen stage venerables, his life span has been extended for a few years, and the time for his death is only one or two hundred years.
Before his death, it is almost impossible to ensure that the second late Yuanying great cultivator will appear in Zhengyang Palace in time.
So the situation in Xia State will definitely change at that time.
However, this kind of thing is very common in all human countries, and I think Zhengyang Palace will choose to compromise at that time.
Although Zhou Chun had been to Xia State before, he had not been to the mountain gate of Ziqi Sect.
But Su Yuzhen and Zhou Xinyuan had taken refuge there before, so they could point him in the right direction.
After flying thousands of miles in Xia, the three of them arrived near the mountain gate of Ziqi Sect.
The mountain gate of Ziqi Sect is located in a hot basin, and its location is just northeast of the basin, which is an even hotter mountain range.
However, although the climate is hot, the basin is lush with vegetation and very suitable for farming, so it has attracted a large number of mortals to settle here.
The location of the mountain gate of Ziqi Sect is a blessed land of immortals with rich spiritual energy.
After Zhou Chun entered the basin, he sent a message to Nangong Wuqing to inform him of his arrival, so when they arrived outside the mountain gate of Ziqi Sect, Nangong Wuqing, the newly promoted late Yuanying great monk, immediately came out to greet them in person.
"Hahaha, Daoist Zhou has come from afar, which really makes our sect proud. On behalf of our sect, I welcome Daoist Zhou!"
A purple figure flashed in the sky, and Nangong Wuqing, dressed in purple, appeared in the air with a big laugh, and bowed to Zhou Chun enthusiastically to express his welcome.
"Daoist Nangong, what you said really humiliates me. What virtue and ability do I have to be valued by Daoist Daoist so much? I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it!"
Zhou Chun hurriedly bowed in return, and kept saying modestly.
"Haha, Daoist Zhou is still as modest as always."
Nangong Wuqing laughed, and then personally led Zhou Chun and his family of three into the mountain gate of Ziqi Sect.
After that, Su Yuzhen, Zhou Xinyuan, mother and son were taken by Nangong Qingqing's concubine to visit other places in the mountain gate, while Zhou Chun went to his cave with Nangong Qingqing.
"Speaking of which, it has only been 40 or 50 years since we last saw each other from the Great Zhou Kingdom. Unexpectedly, Fellow Daoist Zhou has broken through to the middle stage of Nascent Soul so quickly. It really makes a certain family admire him very much!"
In the cave, Nangong Qingqing took out his own collection of spiritual wine and gave Zhou Chun a full glass. After the two toasted each other and drank a glass, he also looked at Zhou Chun with emotion and sighed.
He knew that the barrier of the mid-Nascent Soul realm would definitely not be able to trap Zhou Chun.
But Zhou Chun's breakthrough to the middle stage of Nascent Soul so quickly still amazed him.
After listening to his words, Zhou Chun said with a smile on his face: "This should be said by Zhou. It has only been a few decades since I last saw, and Taoist Nangong has broken through to the late Nascent Soul stage and suddenly became me." There are countless great monks in the human race, which really makes Zhou feel envious and admired!"
"Hey, if others mentioned this, a certain family would be proud of it, but in front of fellow Taoist Zhou, a certain family would never dare to be proud of it!"
A wry smile flashed across Nangong Qingqing's face, and he sighed with emotion: "With Zhou Daoyou's talent, I'm afraid it will take another three to five hundred years to catch up with a certain family in terms of cultivation. If you want to talk about fighting and fighting, a certain family is absolutely inferior to fellow Taoists!"
"Fellow Taoist Nangong thinks too highly of Zhou. The barrier to the realm of the late Nascent Soul is so difficult. Countless heroes of the human race have been stuck in front of this barrier since ancient times, and finally died in depression. Zhou doesn't dare to speak out, thinking that he must be certain." can succeed!"
Zhou Chun shook his head and waved his hands, but did not accept the compliment.
He knows that his talent is limited, and even if he has the help of [Pure Yang Barrier Breaking Pill], he may not be able to successfully break through.
If you accept this admiration without shame now and are proud and complacent, if you fail later, you will have to slap yourself in the face and make others laugh.
As for Nangong Qingwu, he would continue to praise himself, so he tried to counter General Yijun and said, "Fellow Taoist Nangong, now that he has broken through to the late Nascent Soul stage, there is really hope for him to become a god in the future!"
Hearing what he said, Nangong Wuqing couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Fellow Daoist Zhou also said that a certain family looked up to you, but you are really putting that family on the fire!"
As he spoke, he sighed faintly and said: "How difficult it is to transform into a god! Although a certain family has reached the late stage of Nascent Soul cultivation, they really have no idea about the matter of transforming into a god. I am afraid that without hundreds of years of groping, they can even reach the threshold. Can’t even touch it!”
These words can be regarded as words from the bottom of my heart.
After Zhou Chun heard this, he also fell silent.
After being silent for a while, he said softly: "Fellow Taoist Nangong, there is no need to worry. With your longevity, Taoist friend, you will be able to survive until the turbid evil spirit has completely dissipated. By then, the attack on the spirit transformation can be called... The time and place are right!”
"Yes, seriously speaking, we have caught up with the good times. I hope that by then, a certain family and fellow Daoist Zhou will be able to have a glimpse of the avenue of transformation!"
Nangong Qingqing nodded slightly, quickly adjusted his mentality, and expressed his good expectations for the future with a smile.
Afterwards, the two of them discussed Taoism and exchanged their cultivation experiences. They also talked about some things about the great monks in the world of immortality. They mainly analyzed who might have a chance to attack the gods and who had no long life left.
In fact, at the level of their cultivation, there are really not many things that they can care about in this world of cultivation.
If it weren't for the previous foreign invasion war, the great monks in the late Nascent Soul stage would basically be in seclusion, and it would be difficult for other monks in the Nascent Soul stage to see them.
Generally, when you first break through the realm, you will be active and gain some deserved benefits for the sect family platform.
In this way, after being a guest of Ziqi Sect for more than half a month, Nangong Qingqing's celebration of the great monk officially began.
The standard of this celebration is much higher than that of the Nascent Soul Ceremony. The golden elixir stage monks are the lowest cultivators present. There are no less than thirty Nascent Soul stage monks who arrived, most of them are from the Nascent Soul stage of Xia Kingdom and surrounding countries. Monk.
The influence of a great monk in the late Nascent Soul period will itself encompass several surrounding countries, and even further!
Therefore, the Nascent Soul Stage monks from nearby countries will definitely come to congratulate and show their goodwill at this time, and give a generous gift.
When Zhou Chun appeared on the stage, he suddenly became the focus of everyone's attention. Even Nangong Qingqing, the newly promoted late Nascent Soul monk, was robbed of all his limelight.
The so-called name of a person is the shadow of a tree.
Today, Zhou Chun is really famous in the circle of human Nascent Soul monks, and everyone knows him.
Not to mention that after he appeared today, the monks present discovered that he was already a mid-stage Nascent Soul monk!
I think back then, when he was in the early stage of Yuanying cultivation, he was able to overpower all the great monks in the late stage of Yuanying and became the number one hero of the human race.
Now that his cultivation has broken through to the middle stage of Nascent Soul, no one dares to predict how strong he will be.
Anyway, just please!
And Nangong Qingqing didn't care that Zhou Chun stole his limelight.
When he invited Zhou Chun over, he expected something like this to happen.
Compared with such a trivial matter as being robbed of the limelight, he wanted to take this opportunity to send a signal to the Xia Kingdom and the surrounding countries. He and Zhou Zhengchun, the real person of Chunjun, are also close friends.
In this way, the monks and forces present should consider which family should dominate the Xia Kingdom in the future.
It's not that Zhou Chun didn't know the inside information, but Nangong Wuqing was indeed worthy of his help.
Therefore, at the celebration, he also took the initiative to talk about some of his previous experiences fighting alongside Nangong Qingqing.
This approach seems to be to reminisce about the past and show off his achievements to other monks present; in fact, it is to tell everyone that he and Nangong Wuqing have a deep friendship and are comrades who have fought side by side.
And among the monks who can be present, which one is not a human spirit?
Of course you don't understand what Zhou Chun wants to express.
Therefore, they who already had a preference in their hearts became more obvious later on. Almost all of them were pursuing and complimenting Zhou Chun and Nangong Wuqing, and conveying their goodwill to Nangong Wuqing.
In the end, the effect of this celebration completely achieved the best result that Nangong Wuqing had expected.
After the celebration, he bowed his hands to Zhou Chun from the bottom of his heart and said, "Thank you very much, Taoist friend Zhou, for traveling thousands of miles to help support the event. In the future, if you can find a certain family's place, you can send someone to inform them. I will definitely not refuse.”
"Fellow Taoist Nangong is so polite. Taoist friend has helped me a lot before. Mr. Zhou is just reciprocating the courtesy."
Zhou Chun smiled and waved his hand, not intending to take credit.
Then he took his wife and children and left the Purple Air Sect without staying any longer.
After leaving the Purple Air Sect, Zhou Chun also wanted to continue visiting the world of immortality as a family of three.
But after playing for a month or two, I found that it was no longer as interesting as it was at the beginning, maybe because I did it deliberately!
Therefore, after discussing with their wives, the three of them ended their trip and returned directly to the family.
And as soon as they returned to the family, they learned some bad news.
Su Yunniang, Su Yuzhen's aunt, has entered a dying state because of the end of her life span.
The three of them had no choice but to rush to the location of the Su Family Mountain Gate.
In the end, Su Yuzhen only had time to chat with Su Yunniang, who was breathing heavily, and then watched her relative die on the bed.
This made Su Yuzhen extremely sad and blamed herself very much.
Seeing this, Zhou Chun could only comfort her softly: "Auntie, she died at the end of her life. This is due to the laws of heaven. Yuzhen, you don't have to be too sad. Please be sorry!"
"I'm fine, I'm just a little sad. If we can come back earlier, we can spend more time with my aunt, and she won't have to work so hard!"
Su Yuzhen sobbed softly and muttered to herself, her words full of self-blame and regret.
This left Zhou Chun speechless for a while.
After all, he had the responsibility to play again before.
And when he saw Su Yunniang passing away at the end of her life, he couldn't help but think of his two elders, Zhou Mingde and Zhou Daoyi.
These two elders only have more than ten years left to live. In more than ten years, he will also say goodbye to these two closest elders!
Thinking of this, he wanted to spend more time with the two elders, so he told Zhou Xinyuan on the side: "Xinyuan, please stay here with your mother for a while, enlighten her, and remember to contact me in time if you have anything to do. father."
"My child understands, leave this matter to my child."
Zhou Xinyuan nodded sensibly and agreed.
So Zhou Chun left Lord Yishan at the gate of Sujia Mountain to wait for his wife and children, and then returned to Kunwu Mountain alone.
I don’t know if he sensed it, but as soon as Zhou Chun returned to Kunwu Mountain, Zhou Mingde came to him, nodded to him and said: "Zhengchun is back. Has she gone, Fellow Daoist Su? Have you ever seen him?" To her last?"
"I saw it, but unfortunately I only had time to say a few words before I left!"
Zhou Chun sighed softly and replied in a low tone.
When Zhou Mingde heard this, he smiled slightly and said: "It's good to see you there. Before I leave, I just want to see my closest juniors again and let them bid farewell to me!"
Then he sighed with emotion: "I have also agreed with Dao Yi that we will leave together when the time comes, so that you, the younger generation, will not be heartbroken twice in a few years, which will be torture!"
