The Mortal's Path to Immortality

Chapter 57 Departure to the Spirit Beast Sect

That day.

Xiao State Palace.

A young monk came quietly.

He was wearing a golden robe, and he had the temperament of a great monk at a young age.

Liu Zuoren warmly received the monk.

It turned out that the monk was Xinming, a disciple of Miaoyin Temple, one of the three major sects.

Xinming was here to take over Liu Zuoren's worship position.

This also meant that Liu Zuoren's term of office was officially over and he could return to the Lingshou Mountain Sect.

After a simple handover with Xinming, Liu Zuoren personally came to the treasury to inform Cao Rui.

When he found Cao Rui in the treasury, Liu Zuoren was shocked by the unstable mana fluctuations on Cao Rui's body, which had just broken through.

"Brother Cao, I was wondering why you suddenly went into seclusion in the treasury?"

"You actually broke through to the seventh level of Qi Refining? You are only in your early twenties, and with such talent, you can rank among the top five in the Lingshou Sect!" Liu Zuoren said in shock.

Cao Rui touched his head: "Sorry, I broke through by accident."

"Brother Liu, why did you come to the treasury to find me? Could it be that the offerings from Miaoyin Temple have arrived?"

Liu Zuoren nodded, "You guessed right, I have completed the handover with Daoist Xinming, time is running out, you pack up and we will set off now."

After staying in the mortal world for so long.

Liu Zuoren has long begun to miss the spiritual energy in the gate of Lingshou Mountain.

The gate of Lingshou Mountain is built on a middle-grade pure spiritual vein, and the spiritual energy is several times richer than that of the mortal world.

"Please wait for me for a while, Brother Liu."

Cao Rui left the treasury.

He went to see You Feng, who was already working in the Eagle Guard.

He reminded him that there might be a change of dynasty in Xiao State, and he must stand in line when a big chaos occurs.

If necessary, he can look for Zuo Xiao for protection.

Afterwards, Cao Rui left under You Feng's respectful and reluctant eyes.

......

Late summer.

Liu Zuoren was in the small courtyard of the practice room in the palace.

Liu Zuoren and Cao Rui stood in the small courtyard, preparing to set off back to the mountain gate.

Liu Zuoren reached out and gently patted a black bag on his waist.

The next moment.

There was a chirp.

A four-meter-long, black and white spiritual crane appeared in the yard.

"Is this the spiritual beast that you, Senior Brother Liu, have - the Thousand Feather Crane!" Cao Rui's eyes were full of surprise.

I think the thing on Liu Zuoren's waist that is three points similar to the storage bag is the spiritual beast bag.

Unlike the storage bag that cannot store life, the spiritual beast bag can store spiritual beasts, which is quite convenient and is a must-have item for everyone in the Spirit Beast Sect.

"Yes, this is the signature spiritual beast of our Spirit Beast Sect, the Thousand Feather Crane!" Liu Zuoren looked at the Thousand Feather Crane with love in his eyes.

Liu Zuoren took out a spiritual pill from the storage bag on his waist and threw it out.

The Thousand Feather Crane opened its mouth and swallowed it.

It made another clear cry, and this time it opened its wings, with a wingspan of nearly ten meters, which was truly extraordinary.

"We will rely on it on this trip back to the mountain gate."

"A 0-level Thousand Feather Crane can fly a thousand miles a day." Liu Zuoren said.

"And because it flies in the air, it does not need to take the winding roads on land, so it actually takes less time."

"I have cultivated this Thousand Feather Crane for more than 20 years, and it is about to break through the 1st level."

"So its speed is faster, and it can fly 1,200 miles a day."

"It only takes three days to reach the mountain gate of the Spirit Beast Sect." Liu Zuoren continued with great satisfaction.

Cao Rui cooperated with an envious look.

In Guangyuan's notes, there is a classification of the levels of spirit beasts and demon beasts.

0-level demon beasts are demon beasts that have not yet condensed demon pills.

1-level demon beasts are demon beasts that have condensed demon pills.

Above them are 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and so on.

Generally speaking, 0-level monsters correspond to cultivators in the early stage of Qi Refining.

1-level monsters correspond to cultivators in the late stage of Qi Refining.

2-level and 3-level monsters correspond to foundation building, and 4-level and 5-level monsters correspond to Jindan cultivators.

However, the actual combat power of monsters varies greatly depending on the type of monster.

Some 0-level monsters may not be able to be successfully dealt with in the late stage of Qi Refining.

"Okay, let's get on the back."

Liu Zuoren was the first to jump onto the back of the Thousand Feather Crane.

At Liu Zuoren's invitation, Cao Rui carefully jumped onto the back of the Thousand Feather Crane.

When he really sat cross-legged on the back of the Thousand Feather Crane, Cao Rui found that its broad back was quite comfortable.

There was a faint fluctuation of spiritual power on the feathers of the Thousand Feather Crane.

It can form a weak spiritual power shield, which does not have much protective function, but can block the wind flow, so that the rider will not be attacked by the wind flow when it flies at high altitude and high speed.

So, Liu Zuoren was in front and Cao Rui was behind.

The Thousand Feather Crane cried and flapped its wings to fly high!

Sitting on the spirit beast in the sky, Cao Rui was also emotional.

"Do you like this Thousand Feather Crane, Junior Brother Cao?"

"You can also claim a Thousand Feather Crane in the future."

"In the Spirit Beast Sect, all disciples who have reached the middle stage of Qi Refining can claim a Thousand Feather Crane at the Spirit Beast Court."

"However, it costs a lot to raise a Thousand Feather Crane."

"I am only at the fifth level of Qi Refining, and most of the elixirs are used to cultivate the Thousand Feather Crane."

"My spiritual root talent is not too bad, it is a medium-grade spiritual root, and it is extremely pure. If I use it all for my own cultivation, I may have advanced to the late stage of Qi Refining."

Liu Zuoren said with emotion.

"After raising this spirit beast for a long time, I also have feelings for it, just like my own child."

"The Thousand-Feather Crane has a longer lifespan than humans and is human-like. It is a wonderful thing to have it accompany me for the rest of my life!"

When the Thousand-Feather Crane heard Liu Zuoren's words, it responded to Liu Zuoren with a very spiritual cry.

Cao Rui had a different idea about this.

Cao Rui would raise spirit beasts, but he would never let raising spirit beasts affect his own cultivation.

Cao Rui cultivated immortals in order to achieve longevity and eternity.

Cao Rui could abandon anything that affected his longevity.

......

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

As a spirit beast, the Thousand-Feather Crane has super endurance. After three days of non-stop flight, the destination, the gate of the Spirit Beast Sect, would soon be reached.

During these three days, Cao Rui ate the Bigu Pill for the first time.

It was given by Liu Zuoren.

This thing is the size of a thumb. If you eat one, you can stay without food for three days or even a month depending on the quality.

After taking the Bigu Pill, Cao Rui really never felt hungry during these three days.

The Thousand Feather Crane traveled all the way to the largest mountain range in the Moon Country, the Moonfall Mountain Range.

"Below is the gate of the Spirit Beast Sect." Liu Zuoren pointed to a plain mountaintop below and said.

Cao Rui was about to ask.

The Thousand Feather Crane seemed to have broken through a certain layer of the magic circle, and the scene in Cao Rui's eyes changed drastically.

The plain mountaintops became peaks and ridges.

There were many peaks, and fairy clouds flowed between them, and fairy cranes could be seen flying by from time to time.

The spiritual energy here was extremely abundant, and Cao Rui could feel the magic power in his body surging freely just by taking a breath.
