Cultivating Immortals in the Family: Rising from Beast Familiarity

Chapter 356 Mu Mei surrenders and goes to the snow field 【Subscription】

Hongyu Peak stronghold.

Although Zhou Chun discovered the problem in time, he also took measures to persuade him to stay.

But the temptation of Jidan is too great.

Many young casual cultivators who still had some thoughts, didn't want to miss this rare opportunity, and set foot on the journey to the snowy field regardless of the persuasion.

The departure of these people undoubtedly had a great impact on the stronghold.

Because of their departure, the remaining monks will have to undertake more arduous tasks, and will never return to the original easy life.

Therefore, it is also necessary for Zhou Chun to give everyone a monthly spiritual currency subsidy.

Without this "overtime pay", these casual cultivators are definitely unwilling to spend a lot of time every day guarding the "Jingling Pavilion".

"Pay attention to the news, and see why Xue Po Palace suddenly issued this kind of reward, and then increase the recruiting treatment, as long as newcomers join the stronghold, they will be subsidized from the first month, and an additional ten spirits will be subsidized after half a year." currency!"

In the meeting hall, Zhou Chun frowned and gave orders to Fu Changqing and the others.

After the three of them retreated, he began to search for information about the snow crystal worm.

Han Yuan of Qianlingmen had been cultivating in Yangguo for many years, and he also had research records on the snow crystal worms that existed on the snowfields of Yangguo.

Zhou Chun quickly found information about this kind of monster insect from the illustrated book of monster insects he left behind.

According to the notes on the pictorial book, snow crystal worms are a special kind of monster insects unique to the snowfield environment. They look like earthworms and are covered in snow white. They like to move in snow and ice. May appear on snow.

This kind of demon insect has no fighting ability, but its ability to escape is very strong.

They can easily burrow their bodies into thick snow or ice like wood charms into trees, and when they are hidden in the snow, even the spiritual sense of the monks of the Zifu period can hardly detect the abnormality .

Therefore, it is very difficult to catch this kind of monster insect, and basically you can only try your luck during the snowstorm.

This is also the reason why Xue Po Palace's mountain gate is located in the snow field, and there are tens of thousands of internal and external disciples, so why does it issue a reward order to buy this kind of monster.

But even Han Yuan, who has a lot of research on monster worms, doesn't know what unknown and precious uses snow crystal worms have.

After all, Han Yuan's main ambition is to cultivate a monster worm with powerful fighting ability, and the snow crystal worm can only survive and move on the snow and ice fields, so it is destined to be difficult to attract him to conduct in-depth research on this monster worm.

"I hope this matter can pass as soon as possible!"

With a slight sigh in his heart, Zhou Chun put away the classics and didn't care about this anymore.

In the past two months, Lin Wan'er safely returned to the Hongyu Peak stronghold, and brought back a letter from home to Zhou Chun.

The family letter was written by Zhou Jiarui, and it mainly described various things that happened in Yasukuni and the family during the more than one year since he left the family.

There are only three things worthy of Zhou Chun's attention.

One is that the monks of the Zhou family in Longxing Valley have moved to the new stronghold "Caiyu Mountain", and the mining of Lingyu veins has been put on the agenda.

The second is that Zhou Zhengbai, a foundation cultivator of the Zhou family, married a female cultivator from the Li family of elixir. This was the first marriage between the two families after they moved to Jingguo.

This matter was also approved by Zhou Mingde.

The third is that Qinglian Temple suddenly issued a "tax collection order", requiring all the cultivating families in the three states under its command to pay a tax to Qinglian Temple on the basis of the number of monks in the family.

The amount of this tax is not very high. The monks in the Qi refining period need to pay ten spirit coins per person, and the monks in the foundation building period only need to pay one hundred spirit coins per person. The monks in the Zifu period can be exempted from tax.

Based on this calculation, with the size of the Zhou family, it would be more than 4000 spirit coins.

To be honest, this kind of "requisition order" is nothing new. Many sects sometimes collect gifts from the Xiuxian family under their command.

But Qinglian Temple has not done this for hundreds of years, and now it is suddenly asking for a gift, it is hard not to make people think too much.

Zhou Chun still doesn't know what Qinglian Temple wants to do now, but just like what Zhou Mingde said at the time, no matter what happens, the size of the Zhou family can only follow the trend and is powerless to change.

So after reading the letter from home, he didn't think too much about it.

And Lin Wan'er's return allowed him to return to his previous life, and he didn't have to worry too much about the affairs of the stronghold.

Time passed slowly like this, and after more than five months passed, the patient contest between Zhou Chun and Mu Mei finally came to fruition.

After more than two years of torture, Mu Mei finally couldn't stand the torture and chose to surrender.

Taking advantage of the situation, Zhou Chun was able to conclude a contract with it, and took it as his fourth spiritual pet.

As Mu Mei was successfully subdued, Zhou Chun was able to settle a concern, and he was also liberated in action.

He couldn't wait to take Mu Mei to the deep mountains and old forests of Dayun Country to test Mu Mei's ability to find medicine and supernatural powers.

After returning to the forest, Mu Mei was also very excited.

After being tortured by Zhou Chun for more than two years, its vitality was severely depleted. After returning to the forest at this time, it immediately recovered its vitality by absorbing the vitality of those ancient trees.

The older the old trees in the forest, the more vigorous and powerful they will be as long as they are not infested by diseases and insect pests.

And Mu Mei was born to absorb the vitality of ancient trees to heal her wounds.

For it, this pure vegetation vitality is more useful than any panacea in terms of healing effect.

In less than half a day, most of its vitality lost by Zhou Chun's torture had recovered, and this recovery speed shocked Zhou Chun severely.

Then Zhou Chun began to order Mu Mei to use his talent to find the elixir for himself.

Maybe it was because of suffering enough before, maybe because of this hard-won freedom, Mu Mei didn't have much resistance to Zhou Chun's order, and quickly acted according to his order.

As a result, in just half a day, it found a 300-year-old spirit ginseng for Zhou Chun, five 200-year-old sealwort, ginseng and other elixir, and [-] other [-]-year-old elixir .

These elixir are almost all the high-year elixir that can be found within a hundred miles.

This result also made Zhou Chun very satisfied.

Because he knew very well that the forest he chose was not a sacred place, and it must have been visited by many casual cultivators over the years.

Under such circumstances, Mu Mei could still find so many elixir within half a day, which fully demonstrated its powerful ability in finding elixir.

"It's really good, it's really good, it's worth my effort to subdue you, Lu'er, you really are a treasure hunting deer!"

Touching Qinglu's head in satisfaction, Zhou Chun smiled and put all the elixirs into the storage bag.

He is just testing Mu Mei's ability to find elixir now, and it will be time to show off his skills when he returns to Zhou's house.

With the existence of the Wood Demon, the elixir that ordinary people can hardly find in the wilderness will be invisible to him in the future!

Next, Zhou Chun asked Mu Mei to show her various magical powers and spells.

The supernatural spells that Wood Charm knows are all wood-related spells, covering many fields such as attack, defense, trapping enemies, illusion, concealment, escapism, and healing.

But being able to do everything means that there is no specialization.

In terms of attack, Wood Demon's lethal spells are not too powerful, especially those attack spells that directly attack the air.

Defense and trapping the enemy are much stronger than attacking, especially in the forest environment, which can obtain great home support.

In the two aspects of transfiguration and healing, Mu Mei can only say that she has related spells, but she doesn't use much of the same.

Escapism and concealment are its two strongest talents, and Zhou Chun has already seen how powerful these two talents are.

In addition, Mu Mei also has a special supernatural power, which is the kind that Zhou Chun has seen before, which can greatly improve its cultivation base.

That kind of supernatural power is called "life gift", and it is a supernatural power that can only be used under special circumstances.

As a child of the forest, Mu Mei is favored and blessed by the forest, and also has the responsibility to protect the forest.

When the forest is threatened with destruction, or when the wood charm itself is in danger of death, the spiritual consciousness of the vegetation in the forest will transfer its original vitality to the wood charm at the cost of sacrificing itself, so as to improve the wood charm's cultivation strength , let it gain the power to protect the forest and itself.

Judging from the description above and the actual effect, the "gift of life" supernatural power is undoubtedly extremely overbearing and powerful. It will not even make the strengthened monsters fall into the aftereffects of weakness like "Ancestors Resurrection", and the duration is also considerable. long.

It's a pity that the prerequisites for this supernatural power to activate are a bit too difficult.

First of all, Wood Mei or Zhou Chun actively created a disaster that would destroy the forest, and it would definitely not be able to trigger the conditions. Instead, the spiritual consciousness of those plants and trees would abandon Wood Mei, making it unable to cast spells such as the Wood Escape Technique.

And letting Mu Mei go head-to-head with the enemy and put him in danger of death is also a way of dancing on the tip of a knife. If you don't pay attention, Mu Mei may really die.

Therefore, although the supernatural power of "gift of life" is strong, it cannot really be used as a conventional combat power.

To sum up, in view of Mu Mei’s special ability, Zhou Chun positioned it as an auxiliary spirit pet. It can be used to control the field and strengthen defense in battle. It can also be used to treat other injured spirit pets after the battle. There is no need.

After staying in the deep mountains and old forests of Dayun Kingdom for a few days, after Mu Mei's vitality was fully recovered, Zhou Chun took it back to the Hongyu Peak stronghold.

As soon as he returned to Hongyufeng stronghold, Zhou Chun learned a piece of news that surprised him.

"What did you say? Xue Po Palace is now even willing to reward the pills that assist in opening up the Purple Mansion?"

Inside the stronghold, Zhou Chun looked at Lin Wan'er in surprise, shocked by what the other party said just now.

It turned out that during the few days when he went to Dayun Kingdom, the rewards offered by Xue Po Palace changed again.

This time Xue Po Palace issued another reward, saying that if anyone can pay the Snow Crystal Insect King, one can be exchanged for a [Snow Soul Pill] that can assist in opening up the Purple Mansion.

As soon as this reward was announced, Fu Changqing from the Red Jade Peak stronghold immediately reported to Lin Wan'er that he had already left for the snowfield.

And Lin Wan'er also knew that she couldn't stop the other party, so she reluctantly agreed to this matter.

"What kind of use does this snow crystal worm have, that it can make Xue Po Palace spend so much money!"

Zhou Chun muttered to himself, and his eyes couldn't help revealing the color of excitement.

The elixir to help open up the Purple Mansion is exactly what he can't ask for now!
"Patriarch, if you want to go, then go, the stronghold here can handle it by myself."

As if seeing Zhou Chun's inner thoughts, Lin Wan'er immediately spoke softly to support him.

After hearing this, Zhou Chun's eyes flickered, then he nodded and said, "Then there is Elder Laurin."

Now that the decision was made, Zhou Chun did not delay, and set off on the journey after resting for half a day.

Among the previous "Thousand Ant Cricket Disasters", the snowfield in the northwest of Yang Kingdom was the only place that had not been harmed by "Thousand Absolute Ant Cricket". It could be said to be the last piece of pure land in Yang Kingdom.

The Xuepo Palace, which tied the mountain gate on the snowfield, was able to preserve the power of the sect and became the best-preserved sect in Yang Kingdom after the war.

On the way Zhou Chun set off from Hongyufeng stronghold to Xueyuan, he also bumped into many fellow travelers, including monks in the Qi refining period, monks in the foundation building period, and even monks in the Zifu period.

Xue Po Palace's latest reward offer is fully attractive to monks below the Golden Core stage.

Even for the cultivators of the Zifu period, if they caught a snow crystal worm king, they could net at least [-] spirit coins.

And in order to facilitate the acquisition of snow crystal worms, it is said that Xue Po Palace has now sent hundreds of inner disciples who have cultivated in the foundation stage to set up acquisition points in various places in the snow field.

As long as someone catches the snow crystal worm, they can go to the nearest purchase point to exchange rewards with Xue Po Palace disciples.

Xue Po Palace even carefully prepared related materials such as the living habits of snow crystal worms, and anyone can get them for free.

These practices all show their current desire for snow crystal worms.

It took Zhou Chun almost three days to arrive at the snowfield. This was mainly because there were too many people on the road, and he didn't dare to make too much publicity by changing trains continuously.

Yangguo is not Jingguo after all, if he is too flamboyant, if he attracts the attention of a cultivator in the Zifu period, he will be in big trouble.

This is not the first time Zhou Chun has climbed a snow-covered mountain in this world, but it is indeed his first time on a snowfield.

Yangguo's snowfield area is very large, much larger than the four prefectures under the jurisdiction of Qinglian Temple, and the altitude is also very high, with an average height of more than [-] feet.

On this snowfield, most of the area is covered by snow, and there are eternal glaciers everywhere.

Only in some low-lying valleys can there be vegetation, birds and animals active, and human settlements.

This kind of valley with vegetation growth is dotted on the snowfield like lakes on the earth, and there are too many to count.

The big ones can support 10,000+ ordinary people, and the small ones are only the size of a hundred acres of land.

Those disciples sent by Xue Po Palace to buy snow crystal worms stay in each snow valley.

After Zhou Chun arrived on the snowfield, the first thing he did was to find these people to obtain intelligence information about snow crystal worms.

　The first one is delivered!
