Chapter 254: Explore the Ancient Ruins Again!

Three days later, Zhou Xun practiced for Nanyue Zhenren and others in Jingxin Pavilion.

He specially took out the last first-grade top-grade red dragon fish to entertain.

Everyone was very happy to eat and praised it!

"Junior brother, you stay here, be careful of Yunguang Sect!" Zhou Buqi pulled Zhou Xun and warned him.

Although Zhou Xun has not been his junior brother for a long time, his performance has won his recognition.

"Don't worry, Senior Brother Zhou, with this magic array here, it's very safe!" Zhou Xun said slowly.

Except for a few senior brothers and sisters, his identity as a second-grade top-grade alchemist is not known to others.

In their opinion, Zhou Xun is still at the level of second-grade middle-grade.

As for cultivation, it also stays in the middle stage of foundation building.

Such performance is not too evil.

Therefore, for Yunguang Sect, there is no need to go to great lengths to deal with Zhou Xun.

This is simply not worth it!

"Okay, it's getting late, we should set off!"

Nanyue Zhenren looked at the sky and spoke to everyone.

Immediately, everyone used their own methods, flew up, and headed towards the direction of the northern Zhao State.

Zhou Xun saw them off for thousands of miles.

"Zhou Xun, just send them here, you stop!"

Nanyue Zhenren said.

Zhou Xun nodded, without refutation, stepped on the green light shuttle and stopped in the air, bowed and said:

"Uncle Nanyue, senior brother, senior sister, take care!"

"Take care!"

As soon as the voice fell, everyone flew away.

Zhou Xun stood there, watching the figures of everyone going away, and a trace of melancholy rose in his heart.

Suddenly, a voice from Nanyue Zhenren sounded in his ears:

"Boy, don't forget to study the magic circle I passed on to you. See you next time. If you don't make much progress, I'll make you look good!"

"I will study hard!"

Zhou Xun silently said in his heart.

After Nanyue Zhenren walked away, Zhou Xun also returned to the island in the middle of the lake.

In the practice room, Zhou Xun took out several third-level spiritual medicines that he got from Xing Huaian's storage bag that day.

Three third-grade middle-grade plants and one third-grade upper-grade plant.

Zhou Xun's Soul-absorbing Secret Technique can break the original shackles of spiritual medicines and upgrade them to a higher level.

Zhou Xun intends to cultivate the three third-grade middle-grade spiritual medicines in front of him to the third-grade top-grade.

As for the third-grade upper-grade plant, he intends to cultivate it to the fourth grade.

By then, Zhou Xun will have four spiritual medicines that can be used to improve his spiritual roots.

As for those third-grade lower-grade plants, if they are to be cultivated to the third-grade top-grade, it will take too long.

Secondly, the longer the cultivation time, the deeper the connection between Zhou Xun and the spiritual plant, and the more it will hurt Zhou Xun to extract the essence at that time.

Picking up a third-grade middle-grade Guiyuan grass, according to the formula of the Soul-absorbing Secret Technique, he separated a trace of essence and blood and began to refine the Guiyuan grass.

As the essence and blood slowly penetrated into the spiritual plant, I don’t know how long it took,

he and the Guiyuan grass had a vague connection.

Zhou Xun quickly separated a trace of his spiritual consciousness and injected it into the Guiyuan grass, and then began a long ritual.

According to Zhou Xun's experience, at this point, the ritual can be completed in ten days.

Then, every once in a while, he would use his Ningchun Sutra to extract the essence of the spiritual medicine and integrate it into this third-level medium-quality Guiyuan grass.

A few years later, Zhou Xun would be able to harvest a third-level top-quality Guiyuan grass.

At that time, he would extract the spiritual essence of the Guiyuan grass to improve the spiritual root qualifications.

With his current 59-point sensitivity of the wood spiritual root, it would be 60 points if it were improved.

That is, it is definitely a ground spiritual root.

With the earth spiritual root qualification, there is a chance to condense a golden elixir.

The quality of the golden elixir is not only stronger in spiritual consciousness and magic power than ordinary true elixirs, but also has a much greater probability of breakthrough in the future.

When impacting the Nascent Soul stage, the probability of breakthrough is also several times or even ten times that of the former.

Ten days passed quickly.

Sensing the Guiyuan grass that almost merged with him, Zhou Xun smiled.

"Finally, I succeeded in refining this Guiyuan grass!"

Next, Zhou Xun planned to go to Baimang Mountain to explore the ancient ruins.

Back then, because his formation skills were too low, even with the strange insects such as Qianying insects, he still had no way to protect the ruins.

But now, he has been reborn.

Not only has his cultivation level been raised to the late stage of foundation building, but his formation skills have also reached the second-level middle grade, close to the upper grade level.

With his own Qianying insects, Zhou Xun believes that he will be able to successfully enter the ruins.

"Husband, how long will you be away?" Song Yiqing said reluctantly.

"At least half a month, at most half a year!" Zhou Xun thought for a moment and replied.

"Husband, you must pay attention to safety!" Song Yiqing said with concern.

Too many things have happened in the past two years. Even a legendary great man like Baiyun Zhenren has fallen, let alone Zhou Xun, a foundation-building cultivator.

"Don't worry, your husband has many tricks!"

"By the way, you should stay in Wangchuan Lake during my absence. There is a third-level lower-grade magic array set up by Uncle Nanyue, so it is extremely safe here!"

"I will also leave the black-armored armadillo to you. If things go wrong, you can let it take you away!"

Zhou Xun carefully reminded.

"I know!"

Hearing Zhou Xun's caring words, Song Yiqing felt warm in her heart and nodded obediently.

Since Master Baiyun blew up his spiritual vein and caused the beast tide to retreat, Baimang Mountain has become lively again.

A large number of demon hunters have come here again to hunt demon beasts and obtain cultivation resources.

No matter how big the disaster is, life still has to go on.

In just one year, a temporary market has been built near Baimang Mountain.

It is a thriving scene.

It is as if the previous beast tide has never happened.

On this day, a green shuttle rushed over outside the Baimang Mountain market.

On the shuttle, a handsome young man wearing a white feather robe stood with his hands behind his back.

It was Zhou Xun who came to explore the ruins.

Although Zhou Xun is now very powerful, even fake Dan cultivators have to stay away.

But he has always been cautious.

Not long after the beast tide receded, Zhou Xun planned to find out the current situation of Baimang Mountain before visiting.

After the escape light fell, Zhou Xun stepped into the gate of the market under the awe-inspiring eyes of the guards.

This temporary market was built by Yun Guangzong.

It was agreed with Nanyue Zhenren that the interests of Baiyun Fairy City would be temporarily taken over by Yun Guangzong.

Baimang Mountain, which has the richest resources, is naturally the most valued.

Entering the market, Zhou Xun came to a shop called Monster Hunting Pavilion.

All the monster hunting equipment sold here are various equipment, such as silk net-like magic tools for catching young beasts and half-step fall for stunning monsters.

He did not hide his cultivation in the middle stage of foundation building.

Therefore, as soon as he entered the shop, the shopkeeper came up to him warmly with a flattering smile

"Junior Feng Zishan, meet this senior, I wonder if the senior has any instructions!"

"I want a recent monster intelligence in Baimang Mountain!" Zhou Xun said lightly, with a look of strangers not allowed to enter.

Seeing this, the shopkeeper coughed lightly and put on a serious expression.

"I wonder what kind of information the senior wants!"

"We have a simple version and a detailed version"

"Just take the detailed version!" Zhou Xun didn't want to listen to the shopkeeper's nonsense, so he interrupted directly.

"Okay!"

Hearing this, the shopkeeper smiled, walked into the counter, took out a jade slip and handed it to Zhou Xun.

"This records the latest distribution of monsters within the Baimang Mountain,"

"Two hundred spirit stones for a sincere discount!"

Zhou Xun nodded, took out two medium-grade spirit stones and threw them to the middle-aged shopkeeper.

Then he left with the shopkeeper's thousands of thanks.

After seeing Zhou Xun leave, the shopkeeper immediately took out two hundred low-grade spirit stones and replaced the two medium-grade spirit stones.

"I didn't expect to meet a big customer. Two medium-grade spirit stones. Hehe, I can earn at least eight!"

Zhou Xun naturally didn't know about this scene.

Even if he knew, he didn't care at all.

For him now, a few or dozens of spirit stones are no longer in his eyes.

After leaving the store, Zhou Xun found an inn to stay.

Take out the jade slip and start to check the current situation of Baimang Mountain.

From the map, although the beast tide has receded in Baimang Mountain, the density of monsters is still not low.

It is still much higher than when Zhou Xun hunted for monster pills.

Within the ten thousand miles of Baimang Mountain, there are traces of more than a dozen second-level top-grade monsters.

"According to the mark on the map, two second-level monsters have appeared near the ruins recently!"

"Wish them good luck, don't run into me!"

As long as there is no third-level monster, everything is a piece of shit for him, and he can kill it at will.

The next morning, Zhou Xun went straight into the mountain and ran towards the ancient ruins in his memory.

Along the way, Zhou Xun hid his whereabouts.

On the way, he also encountered many monsters, many of which were second-level.

But for Zhou Xun, unless they were top-grade, he was too lazy to take action.

Two days later, Zhou Xun successfully arrived at the uninhabited cliff.

Looking at the cliff in front of him, which was thousands of feet high, with steep rocks and rugged rocks, Zhou Xun smiled slightly.

After nearly thirty years, he finally came here again.

Just as Zhou Xun was about to summon the Thousand Response Insects, a faint sound of wind came from afar.

Zhou Xun's spiritual sense moved, and he immediately saw two snow-white demon wolves, one in front and one behind, surrounding Zhou Xun.

They were the two recorded on the map.

Unexpectedly, they were in the same group.

Zhou Xun had a blank expression on his face, slapped his hand into the storage bag, took out the gray small sword talisman, and activated it.

"Roar!"

Seeing Zhou Xun's action, the two demon wolves roared, and then started to pounce on Zhou Xun at the same time.

Seeing this, Zhou Xun did not dodge.

He rushed straight over, raised his fist, and smashed it forward fiercely.

Bang!

A dull sound of a fist hitting the flesh sounded, followed by a whimper.

A demon wolf was instantly smashed back by Zhou Xun.

Zhou Xun was not surprised at all.

His body refining technique has reached the sixth level, and with the extraordinary body refining formula, the physique of ordinary second-level upper-grade monsters is completely inferior to his.

The other monster wolf took advantage of this and grabbed Zhou Xun's shoulder with a claw.

The robe was directly torn, and then it grabbed Zhou Xun's body.

Zi!

A sharp sound like metal friction sounded, and Zhou Xun was unharmed, without even a white mark.

The monster wolf showed a look of astonishment when he saw this.

He didn't know why the physique of the person in front of him was so strong.

Just when he was stunned, the gray small sword talisman controlled by Zhou Xun turned into a gray light, piercing through the head of the monster wolf, killing it instantly.
