Cultivating Immortals in the Family: Rising from Beast Familiarity

Chapter 538 Exchanging demon pills, advanced opportunity 【Subscription】

It turned out to be a fourth-order demon pill!
At the exchange meeting, Zhou Chun looked at the fiery red demon pill in the jade box, with a look of surprise in his eyes.

The fourth-order demon pill is a treasure, and it is extremely difficult to obtain.

Generally, even if a fourth-order monster is defeated by a cultivator, it will know how to run away.

Even if they couldn't escape, they would usually choose to self-destruct the demon core, preventing the human monks from getting the most precious things from them.

Therefore, third-order demon pills can still be seen occasionally in the world of cultivating immortals, but fourth-order demon pills are very rare.

Moreover, the scope of application of the fourth-order demon pill is much wider than that of the third-order demon pill. Whether it is used as the main material for refining some rare panacea, or used to refine magic weapons, or to cultivate fourth-order monsters, it can It is very useful.

Even Nascent Soul cultivators would not mind exchanging such treasures.

Xu Bin was able to take out a Tier [-] demon pill, which basically showed that his words were true, and that he was really lucky to meet that Tier [-] monster that was weak and seriously injured just after breaking through.

As I said before, monsters whose bloodlines are not enough to directly advance to Tier [-], if they want to break through the shackles of their bloodlines and advance to Tier [-], they must have some chance to change their fate.

And in many cases, even if they forcibly break through to the fourth level by swallowing some natural and earthly treasures, the monster itself will be weak and seriously injured.

At this time, they will be very weak, and they can't even control the power of the demon core in their bodies.

With Xu Bin's cultivation level close to the middle stage of the golden core, it is naturally very easy to kill such a fourth-order monster, and the demon core can be left behind.

To be honest, if this is not a fire attribute demon pill, but a metal or earth attribute demon pill, even if it is a wood attribute demon pill and a wind attribute demon pill, Zhou Chun might change it immediately.

Because of the existence of such a fourth-order demon pill, any one of his three spiritual pets can break through to the fourth rank after refining the demon pill, and no matter how bad it is, it can be taken by Zhou Daoyi's Qingjiao.

But it happened to be a fire attribute demon pill!
None of his spiritual pets are suitable for this demon pill. If he swallows it forcibly, at least [-]% of his power will be wasted.

As a result, Zhou Chun was a little tangled.

It is a rare opportunity to meet a fourth-order demon pill, and it would be a pity to miss it.

But this demon pill was exchanged, and he couldn't cash it out immediately.

It’s not true if you really change it, and it’s not true if you don’t change it.

Amidst the entanglement, Zhou Chun looked at the other monks, and found that although these people also coveted the demon pill, they didn't seem to have any intention of exchanging.

Only Zhang Shiyao from Chen Guohuo Lingmen said that he was willing to exchange his magic weapon of earth attribute stick, but Xu Bin refused.

He only wanted to exchange a defensive magic weapon, and there was no shortage of offensive magic weapons.

The result was nothing, and Xu Bin's exchange failed in the end.

When it came to Zhou Chun, he showed some magical materials and rare elixir in exchange for the elixir that could be used to refine the two panaceas of [Guchen Pill] and [Yulu Jinxia Pill].

Just as he was not interested in the things that those acquaintances brought out, those acquaintances only looked at the things he showed.

If those people really had what he needed, they would have exchanged it with him long ago!
However, both Wang Jun and Zhang Shiyao contributed one or two elixir plants to Zhou Chun this time, and one of them was a supplementary drug for refining [Yulu Jinxia Pill], which finally made his trip worthwhile.

After the exchange meeting, according to the usual practice, everyone began to exchange some experience in cultivation.

Zhou Chun really likes this kind of exchange meeting, because many monks will talk about the difficulties encountered in the practice of certain supernatural powers, and want to seek answers.

This kind of answer is not free, if the other party answers your questions, then you must also express it, or give the elixir and spiritual coins, or share some of your own experience for the other party.

Zhou Chun once asked people for advice on "Golden Dunshu" and [Gengjin Sky Rifting Thunder], so he solved some doubts he encountered.

At this time, we can see the importance of the teacher.

If Zhou Chun had an elder who practiced the same kind of supernatural power as him, and the other party's progress in this kind of supernatural power was much better than him, it would save him many detours and make his progress much faster in practicing supernatural power.

If there is a Nascent Soul Master who is proficient in "Golden Escape Technique" and is willing to teach him to practice this supernatural power wholeheartedly, then his progress in this supernatural power will definitely be several times or even ten times faster than what he is now thinking about!
Therefore, those monks of the Jindan stage who have a long history of sect really have a special advantage in cultivating supernatural powers.

As long as they practice the supernatural powers that their predecessors have cultivated, and use the experience and experience left by their predecessors as a reference to practice, the progress in the early stage will be very obvious.

This kind of thing is really done after the predecessors opened the way!

After the exchange meeting was over, all the monks at the Golden Core Stage took their leave one after another and left.

And Zhou Chun finally made up his mind at this time, and secretly asked that Xu Bin to come to his cave for a talk.

Not long after, in Zhou Chun's cave, Xu Bin came to visit as scheduled.

Because the two were not old acquaintances, Xu Bin looked directly at Zhou Chun after the initial greetings and asked, "Did you really mean what Zhang Daoyou said before? Do you really have a defensive magic weapon and are willing to exchange with Xu?"

"Of course, it is not only a defensive magic weapon, but also a middle-grade defensive magic weapon!"

While talking, Zhou Chun raised his hand to pat the storage bag, and took out the magic white shield that he got from the killer of the ice prison gate.

This magic weapon is stolen goods, he himself would never dare to sacrifice and use it, nor would he dare to use it for Zhou family monks.

But it would be no problem to exchange it to a golden core stage monk like Xu Bin.

"This magic weapon..."

Xu Bin looked at the magic weapon in Zhou Chun's hand in surprise, not only did he not look happy, but showed a hint of vigilance.

He looked at Zhou Chun cautiously and said, "This magic weapon Zhang Daoyou, I'm afraid there is something wrong with its origin."

Zhou Chun couldn't help smiling slightly when he heard the words: "Fellow Daoist Xu is joking, I'm waiting for the Jindan stage monks to exchange magic weapons, how many magic weapons are really refined by myself or inherited from the predecessors?"

"What Zhang can guarantee to Fellow Daoist Xu is that the original owner of this object was not a monk from the Great Zhou Kingdom or the Rong Kingdom!"

Hearing his words, Xu Bin's expression immediately relaxed a lot.

As long as it is not belonging to a Jindan period monk from a certain sect of the Great Zhou Kingdom, then the risk of contamination of this treasure will be much smaller.

But even though this was the case, he couldn't let go of the opportunity to bargain.

Immediately said: "Even so, Xu has to take a lot of risks in holding such items of unknown origin, and this ice attribute magic weapon does not match Xu's own attributes..."

How could Zhou Chun not know the meaning of his words, and immediately rolled his eyelids and said: "Fellow Daoist Xu just wants Zhang to lower the price. It’s a good deal!”

But he didn't want Xu Bin to be more greedy than he imagined, so he immediately shook his head and said: "Seventy percent is too high, Xu can only accept this item according to the value of a normal low-rank defensive magic weapon."

These words made Zhou Chun laugh angrily, and immediately took a sip of the tea on the table, and said in a cold tone: "If Fellow Daoist Xu said so, please forgive Zhang for not giving it away!"

But Xu Bin's original intention was just to bargain, so how could he leave just like that.

Seeing him like this, he immediately gritted his teeth and said again: "Fifty percent, if Fellow Daoist Zhang discounts the price by [-]%, Xu will change it!"

"Say [-]% is [-]%, if Fellow Daoist Xu doesn't want it, Zhang will send it to the auction at worst, where they won't care about the origin of the thing!"

Zhou Chun glanced at him, and gave an ultimatum in a firm tone.

After all, the Ice Prison Gate is just a big sect with Nascent Soul stage monks. Even if they know that this magic weapon is being auctioned in the Great Zhou Kingdom, it is impossible for them to come and target the auction house for this, or the big one who auctioned it. Martial monks.

So Zhou Chun is really not afraid that there will be no place to sell the stolen goods in his hand.

He just didn't want the Ice Prison Gate to pass through this magic weapon and learn that Zhang Liang and Zhou Zhengchun were alone, and he didn't want to waste Zhang Liang's identity.

Seeing Zhou Chun's determination at this moment, Xu Bin immediately hesitated with a hesitant expression on his face.

In exchange for [-]% of the price, he actually still made a lot of money.

As for the incompatibility of attributes, he can completely exchange magic weapons with other cultivators who practice the ice movement method for attributes that match his own.

Among other things, Xuepo Palace in Yangguo, next door to Rongguo, is a big sect that practices ice movement, and they are definitely willing to pay a high price to exchange this magic weapon with him.

Thinking of Yangguo's Xuepo Palace, Xu Bin's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help looking at Zhou Chun vigilantly and asked, "This thing Zhang Daoyou has nothing to do with the cultivators of Yangguo's Xuepo Palace, right?"

"It doesn't matter. The original owner of this item is a monk from a certain country in a remote place. As long as you, Fellow Daoist Xu, don't show off that you own this treasure, you will be fine!"

As Zhou Chun said, he waved his hand and said, "Okay, Fellow Daoist Xu, you can change if you want to change, or leave if you don't want to change!"

Seeing him chasing people away again, Xu Bin also knew that there was no room for haggling, so he immediately gritted his teeth and said, "Then change it, how does Zhang Daoyou want to change it?"

What he was looking for before was just a low-grade defensive magic weapon, and his demon pill and monster corpse were more than qualified.

But now a middle-grade defensive magic weapon, no matter how greedy he is, he knows that only the monster pills and monster corpses are not enough.

After all, his monster corpse is said to be a fourth-order monster, but it is actually quite inferior to the kind of monster that has truly stabilized the fourth-order realm.

Fortunately, what Zhou Chun said next surprised him quite a bit.

Zhou Chun didn't need him to pay for any thousand-year-old medicines, he only needed to use other thousand-year-old medicines and magic treasures on his body, and even spiritual coins to make up the difference.

After such a negotiation, the two reached an exchange with satisfaction.

"It turned out to be a Fire Lin Lion Demon Pill that was lucky enough to break through to the fourth level. This is just the right time for the Vulcan Jackal to fight!"

Inside the cave, Zhou Chun looked at the fiery red demon pill in the jade box in front of him, and a flash of understanding flashed in his eyes.

The Huolin lion and the Vulcan jackal are high-level monsters, and the difficulty of breaking through the fourth level of the two should be similar.

This fire lion can have the opportunity to break through the fourth level, it must have swallowed some natural treasures that suit him.

And in view of the fact that he was killed just after he broke through to the fourth level, maybe there is still some power left in his demon core.

Even if there is no remnant, compared to other noble-blooded Tier [-] Monster Pills, this Tier [-] Fire Lion Lion Pill is actually more suitable for Tier [-] top-rank monsters to attack Tier [-].

That's right, Zhou Chun exchanged this fourth-order demon pill for the Vulcan jackal.

As Zhou Mingde's spiritual pet, the Vulcan jackal is now only a little short of time to accumulate to break through the third-order high-grade monster.

After it breaks through to the third-level high-grade monster realm, its own potential is almost exhausted. If you want to break through to the fourth level, you must have the help of noble people.

And a fourth-order low-grade fire attribute demon core that fits very well with its attributes is an excellent breakthrough spiritual object for it, which is equivalent to the alchemy spiritual object used by immortal cultivators to form alchemy.

When Zhou Chun was weak, Vulcan jackal had saved his life several times and helped him out of danger.

Exchanging this fourth-order demon pill for it this time is Zhou Chun's repayment for his life-saving grace.

In the eighth year after coming to Tianyuan Immortal City, Zhou Zhengyong and Lin Wan'er, the elders of the Zhou family, came to the Great Zhou Kingdom together and reported several important things to Zhou Chun.

"Two years ago, Qinglian temple added a new golden core monk, and then Qinglian temple expelled the clan members of the family in Lanzhou and Lianzhoufang City, closed the family's shop, and prevented the 'Zhou Tongtian' 'The firm is going to be in Lanzhou and Lianzhou again!"

"In addition, the family's business with other Qinglian Guan vassal families is also greatly affected. Many families have received a ban, and it is strictly forbidden to conduct trade cooperation with the family!"

"What's more, now the world of Immortal Cultivation in Yasukuni is spreading rumors woven by Qinglian Guan, saying that our Zhou family is actually a spy planted by the Hualong Sect, and the number of family monks who went missing and died has increased by several tenths compared to before! "

"The Supreme Elder has now ordered the clansmen not to go out alone, and has begun to impose certain restrictions on the clansmen going out, but this law treats the symptoms but not the root cause, I am afraid it will be difficult to persist for a long time!"

In the cave, Zhou Chun frowned when he heard the family news brought by Zhou Zhengyong.

He had thought that Qinglian Guan would attack the Zhou family from a commercial point of view, but rumors that the Zhou family was a spy of Hualong Sect were really beyond his expectations.

After all, the Zhou family had indirectly murdered a late Hualongjiao Golden Core cultivator before, and the hands of the senior members of the Zhou family were also stained with the blood of the Hualongjiao monk.

"About the rumor, does the Moon Lun Sect have anything to say?"

After Zhou Chun pondered for a while, he looked at Zhou Zhengyong and asked about the situation.

Hearing his words, Zhou Zhengyong shook his head slightly and said, "Because it's just a private rumor, the Moon Moon Sect has never made any noise."

Hearing this, Zhou Chun immediately said: "Brother Yong, after you go back, take a copy of my handwriting to Moonlight Sect to meet Elder Su, and ask her to help hand it to Daoist Moon Worshiper!"

Then he went on to say: "As for the disappearance and fall of more and more monks of the going out family, shrinking and giving in is not the answer. You can let the elders and core members of the clan secretly follow and protect, and see who is targeting the Zhou family. If you can catch the victim and prove that it is a certain force, you can make an example to others!"

Zhou Chun didn't believe that Qinglian Guan dared to send people from his sect to assassinate the monks who went out of the Zhou family. If he was caught like that, his argument would be irrefutable.

Therefore, those who attacked and killed the monks of the Zhou family must be casual cultivators or other cultivators of the immortal family who were hired and ordered.

In this way, as long as the survivors are captured and evidence is left, the Zhou family can make an example to others, and let those casual cultivators and family forces know how serious the consequences of being involved in the battle between the big family and the big sect are!
This may not be able to completely eliminate such things, but it will definitely discourage many people, and it will also increase the cost of hiring people at Qinglian Temple.

After hearing her words, Zhou Zhengyong immediately nodded and said: "I understand, I will definitely bring the words to the Supreme Elder."

Then he looked at him and asked: "There is one more thing. Because of the rumors, the elder Taishang was worried that Qinglian Guan had discovered something, so he asked me to ask you, Thirteenth Brother, if you can temporarily stop the relationship between the family and the wilderness?" Ordinary visits to the land, only let the family elders go there every six months to understand the situation?"

Hearing this, Zhou Chun just pondered for a moment, then nodded and said: "Yes, then let Uncle Daoquan take the Blood Flame Dragon Python to sit in the wilderness and take charge of the overall situation there!"

After talking about some important things in this way, Zhou Zhengyong talked about what happened in other families in the past few years.

For example, in the "Zhi" generation, there was another gold and water double-attribute high-grade spiritual root qualification monk named Zhou Zhiqian. The female cultivator trained in the Qi refining period was originally a concubine of Zhou Yuanliang there.

In the past, Zhou Chun would have been very happy if there was a monk with top-grade spiritual root qualifications in the family.

But at this time, after hearing about this matter, he just asked a few casually and didn't care.

Because compared to the size of the Zhou family's monks today, it is not uncommon for children with top-grade spiritual root aptitude to appear.

The other is that Zhou Chun's vision has become higher now. Almost [-]% of the Jindan stage monks who deal with him are top-grade spiritual root aptitude monks. It is not unusual to see a lot of them.

Unless one day a legendary cultivator with the highest spiritual root qualification appears in the Zhou family, then he will be guarded like a treasure.

Such a genius is guaranteed to be a Golden Core cultivator.

It was something that Zhou Zhengyong mentioned later that caught Zhou Chun's attention.

According to what he said, Xu Fu, who was sent by him to garrison in the wilderness, is now walking with Zhou Yuanyuan, a nun who established the foundation of the Zhou family. Although they have not officially announced their marriage as a Taoist couple, it seems that they already have dual cultivation!
Hearing this news, Zhou Chun was also a little surprised, and couldn't help asking: "Yuanyuan is also a top-rank spiritual root aptitude, and it shouldn't be a big problem to open up the Zifu in the future. Why did she walk with Xu Fu?"

"It seems that Yuanyuan chose to go to the wilderness to collect elixir in order to compete for the [Xuanxin Zihuan Dan], but because of her greed for a thousand-year-old elixir, she was chased and killed by a third-order monster. Fortunately, Xu Fu heard about it in time. Xun arrived and rescued her, and the two behind saw each other for some reason!"

When Zhou Zhengyong said this, he looked at Zhou Chun tentatively and asked, "Brother Thirteen, do you not agree with the two being together?"

"That's not true, I'm just wondering why Xu Fu didn't form a Taoist partner with the female cultivator of the family before, why he changed his mind now."

Zhou Chun shook his head and told the whole story.

Hearing his words, Zhou Zhengyong immediately guessed: "Maybe it's because he saw the family treated Zhang Liang completely differently from him, which gave him a new idea, or maybe it's because he was so proud that he didn't like ordinary family nuns!"

"Well, Brother Yong, what you said makes sense, so let's let this matter develop. If the two of them can really get together, it will be a good story!"

Zhou Chun nodded, but didn't worry too much about it.

He has never cared much about the marriages of the younger generations, which is different from the patriarchs of many Xiuxian families.

Many patriarchs of Xiuxian families really regard themselves as patriarchs. They like to express their opinions and even forcibly interfere with the marriages of some clansmen, especially the marriages of some important clansmen.

But Zhou Chun never did this, nor did he encourage the elder monks of the Zhou family to do so.

He always believes that family monks should have the right to choose a spouse independently, and other clan members other than their parents should not interfere with this power.

So even if the Zhou family's foundation-building female cultivator finds a Qi-refinement period monk as a Taoist companion, he will not stop her.

This open-minded attitude also gave him a very high status in the hearts of the family nuns.

Because in many cultivating families, the marriage matters of the female cultivators of the family are often unable to make decisions by themselves!
Zhou Zhengyong didn't stay in Tianyuan Immortal City for long, but only stayed for three months. After seeing the prosperity of this place, he hurriedly returned to Zhou's house.

On the contrary, Lin Wan'er stayed to accompany Lin Hongyu, and was going to wait for Zhou Daoyi's alchemy results to come out before going back depending on the situation.

For this reason, Zhou Chun also asked Zhou Zhengyong to take the fourth-order puppet he exchanged with him to avoid any danger on the road.

Time passed slowly, and two years passed quickly.

After enjoying a batch of seven [Ancient Dust Pills] exclusively, Lei Jiao has completed one-third of his way to the fourth level in vain.

However, Zhou Chun's aggressive purchases over the years have already temporarily sold out all the elixir that can be used to refine [Guchen Pill] on the market.

It’s not that there are only so many elixir in the stately Zhou Kingdom, but that the forces that have planted elixir in many medicine gardens, or the monks who have elixir on their bodies, don’t like the purchase price given by Zhou Chun. I don't want to use these elixir at all.

This made him want to leave, and wanted to travel to other countries to search for elixir.

But just before Zhou Chun was about to set off, he suddenly received a message from "Tian Yuan Palace" that someone had accepted a mission issued by him.

After reading the summons, he immediately looked happy, and immediately flew to the location of the "Tian Yuan Palace".

"Do you know where there is information about a third-tier high-grade thunder attribute monster? Are you sure it is a third-tier high-grade monster?"

In the "Tianyuan Palace", Zhou Chun couldn't help frowning, looking suspiciously at the old man who was only at the late stage of Foundation Establishment in front of him.

It's not that he underestimates people, but because of his cultivation in the later stage of foundation establishment, it's really not easy to tell the difference between a third-tier mid-tier monster and a third-tier upper-tier monster.

But facing his doubts, the old man replied confidently: "Yes, this junior is sure, if this junior dares to swear on his own life, it is definitely a silver thunder leopard with a top-rank cultivation of the third rank!"
