Cultivating Immortals in the Family: Rising from Beast Familiarity

Chapter 822 Selecting the Tongtian Lingbao [Subscription Request]

A cup of [Immortal Tea of ​​Longevity] can add a hundred years to your life span.

Zhou Chun felt the nourishment and changes that the rich vitality brought to himself, and he was deeply moved.

It turns out that the treatment you receive depends on your level of cultivation.

The several times he came to Changchun Valley in the past, Venerable Changchun was reluctant to give him even a drop of pine juice.

Now that he has achieved the state of spiritual transformation, as soon as they met, he presented him with a cup of [Eternal Immortal Tea] which is extremely precious to a cultivator in the spiritual transformation stage. This contrast is really touching.

After savoring it carefully, he smiled and said, "It is indeed a unique fairy tea, good tea, good tea!"

"As long as Brother Zhou is satisfied."

Reverend Changchun smiled faintly and nodded, then raised his hand and said, "Daoyou, please take a seat. Let's sit down and talk in detail."

"It is what I wish for, but I dare not ask for it."

Zhou Chun said something polite and sat down at the stone table under the tree.

After becoming a god, he is finally qualified to take a seat here!

As soon as he took his seat, Reverend Changchun looked at him and said, "Daoyou Zhou has just achieved the state of incarnation. I think you don't know enough about the cultivation of this realm. I am thousands of years older than you. Today, I will be of great honor to give you some guidance!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chun's face immediately became serious. He bowed to him solemnly and said, "It is my honor that Senior Changchun is willing to give me some advice. I am all ears!"

"No need to be so polite. What I'm talking about is not a secret. It's just some experience!"

Venerable Changchun waved his hand and started talking about some things that one needs to pay attention to when entering the state of transformation.

According to what he said, when a cultivator first enters the stage of transformation, the first thing to do is naturally to create a unique skill based on his actual situation, so as not to delay future practice.

However, if a cultivator who has reached the Spiritual Transformation stage wants to create his own unique technique, he must conduct an in-depth exploration of the laws of the Dao and seek what he needs from the Dao.

If you are not careful and act rashly and greedily, you may very likely fall into the state of transformation!
Another thing is that a cultivator who has just entered the stage of God Transformation, because he has just mastered the power of the laws of the Dao, is inevitably full of interest in the power of the laws of the Dao, and will involuntarily desire to master more power of the laws of the Dao.

Once you pursue this excessively, you will be in danger of losing your way!

Why do cultivators in the Spirit Transformation Stage rarely use their full strength?

A big reason for this is that as they exert their full strength, the cultivators in the Spirit Transformation Stage mobilize the power of the laws of the Great Dao too frequently, and will gradually be uncontrollably affected by the assimilation of the Great Dao, and fall into the danger of the Spirit Transformation Stage!

Therefore, most of the time, even if the cultivators in the Spirit Transformation Stage take action, they are intentional not to mobilize too much power of the laws of the Dao, or they use the Tongtian Magic Treasure to mobilize the power of the laws of the Dao so as not to come into direct contact with the laws of the Dao.

In short, most of the taboos in the Spirit Transformation Stage are related to excessive exposure to the power of the laws of the Dao.

The power of the laws of the great Dao is the most powerful source of strength for a cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Stage, and it is also a minefield that may explode at any time!

After explaining the taboos that cultivators who have just entered the God Transformation Stage need to pay attention to, Venerable Changchun began to tell Zhou Chun some secrets that only cultivators of the human race in the God Transformation Stage would know.

For example, the current status of all the human race's Jindan stage cultivators, of course with the exception of Venerable Yuanyang.

For example, the situation of the sixth-level beings of the alien races, and the situation of the demon cultivators in the Yuanmo Realm.
There is also the number of supernatural treasures that the human race is currently known to possess, and the situation of each supernatural treasure.

Zhou Chun had a rough idea of ​​some of these secrets, but knew nothing about others.

What surprised Zhou Chun was the origins of those demon cultivators in the Yuanmo Realm.

It is said that the inheritance of these demon cultivators comes from a great demon who descended to the world in ancient times, and that great demon also died in the Yuanmo Realm.

Ever since the death of that great devil, the laws of the area have been affected, becoming more suitable for those demon cultivators, which is why they can live and pass on their heritage there.

This time, Zhou Chun finally knew the reason why the two demons in the God Transformation Stage did not dare to come to the human cultivation world.

That is the world of immortal cultivation of the human race. Now, there is a powerful cultivator who has existed since ancient times and is dormant and sleeping!
According to Venerable Changchun, that powerful monk had already reached the late stage of the Spirit Transformation in ancient times. However, because he was seriously injured in an ancient war, he was unable to ascend to the upper realm and had to sleep in a special state to recuperate.

If nothing unexpected happens, when the turbid evil energy dissipates and the spiritual energy tide of heaven and earth arrives, that powerful being will automatically wake up and ascend to the upper realm!

At least tens of thousands of years have passed from ancient times to the present.

Zhou Chun found it incredible that someone could survive from that time to the present, and he doubted the authenticity of the news.

But since Venerable Changchun said so, even if he had some doubts in his heart, he would not really show them. He would just ask Venerable Taigeng in private later.

After he finished talking about the taboos and various confidential matters, Changchun Zun looked at Zhou Chun and asked, "Fellow Daoist Zhou, you don't have the Tongtian Lingbao yet, right?"

Hearing this, Zhou Chun, who was still digesting the various secrets he had learned before, was stunned for a moment, then he was delighted and quickly replied: "Senior Changchun, please understand. I was born in a humble family and have never had the opportunity to come into contact with treasures of this level!"

Changchun Zun actually knew this, so he nodded quickly and said, "I've told you before that, except for those with clear inheritance and origin, the remaining celestial treasures of our human race belong to the entire human race. We, the human race's Divine Transformation cultivators, only have the right to use them!"

"This is a rule set by our ancestors in ancient times. No one is allowed to break it!"

At this point, his expression became solemn, and he looked at Zhou Chun in a solemn tone and said, "So even if Tai Geng was optimistic about your success in becoming a god, he couldn't violate the rules and ask you to communicate and refine those heavenly treasures in advance, so that you can use their power to overcome the calamity and avoid irreparable losses!"

“These juniors understand, and the younger generations agree with this approach.”

Zhou Chun nodded repeatedly to show his agreement.

Upon seeing this, Changchun Zun also relaxed his expression and said with a smile: "But since you have successfully transformed into a god, according to the rules, you can choose an ownerless celestial treasure as your own guardian treasure!"

After saying that, he looked at the incarnation of Tai Geng God and said, "Taigeng, what do you think?"

"Of course, that's the rule!"

The incarnation of Taigeng God nodded without hesitation and agreed.

Zhou Chun could no longer conceal his excitement when he heard this, and he immediately asked, "Which magical treasure can I choose as my guardian angel? And where can I choose it?"

However, the Changchun Master replied calmly, "There are three celestial treasures left in our race that have no owner yet. They are the [Dapeng Lingxiao Sword], [Jiuxiao Wind and Thunder Fan], and [Qianshan Map]. The former is temporarily kept by Tai Geng and me, and the latter is in the custody of Xuan Wu!"

"You can try to refine each one to see if you can gain the recognition of the weapon spirit, or you can choose one to carry with you for a long time to refine and communicate with it!"

After saying this, he remained silent, waiting for Zhou Chun's decision.

After hearing his answer, Zhou Chun frowned slightly and began to ponder.

After reaching the Spirit Transformation Stage, one can control the five energies of heaven and earth. In fact, any spiritual treasure with any attribute can exert its magical power in the hands of a cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Stage.

However, Tongtian Lingbao condenses the laws of Taoism and has the ability to mobilize the power of the laws of the Tao. If the laws of the Tao are different from the Tao it itself is following, then it can only exert the power of the Lingbao itself and cannot have a superimposed effect.

On the contrary, if the great laws that one masters are the same as the great laws contained in the Tongtian Lingbao, then they can have a cumulative amplification effect, exerting power that exceeds the limits of the Lingbao itself!

At the same time, because both parties master the same great laws, Tongtian Lingbao is nurtured and refined by the master, and long-term exposure to the power of the great laws mastered by the master is also helpful for its own growth, and there is a chance to be promoted in the future.

Because of this, when the spirit of Tongtian Lingbao chooses a master, it usually does not choose someone who has understood the laws of the Tao differently from itself.

Of course, nothing is absolute. For some ownerless spiritual treasures, it is definitely a good thing if there are cultivators in the God Transformation Stage willing to expend their vital energy to nourish them.

Otherwise, although they can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to maintain themselves, it is only limited to maintenance and it is impossible for them to continue to grow.

That's why Master Changchun told Zhou Chun that he could try them all.

After thinking for a long time, Zhou Chun suddenly had an idea and looked at the incarnation of Tai Geng Divine Master and asked, "Senior Tai Geng, do you have any suggestions?"

After all, he was a newly promoted god, and had never held a supernatural treasure in his own hands, so he was extremely unfamiliar with this kind of treasure.

But Lord Taigeng is a veteran cultivator in the God Transformation Stage, and he has also personally cultivated a magical treasure that can reach the sky, so he must have a deeper understanding.

You can never go wrong by asking the other person for advice.

After hearing his words, the incarnation of Taigeng God simply hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Well, since you asked this yourself, I will tell you what I think."

"In my opinion, you should rule out the [Thousand Mountains Map] first. Not to mention that Xuan Wu is not easy to deal with, the purpose of this treasure itself is not suitable for you. If your [Qiankun Zhenling Tower] can be upgraded to a Tongtian Lingbao, it will definitely be better than this one!"

"As for the two great spiritual treasures, the [Dapeng Lingxiao Sword] and the [Jiuxiao Wind and Thunder Fan], they each have their own strengths. The former is in line with your Dao Law, so it will be easier for it to recognize its master, and it can also exert its maximum power. The latter is a famous treasure in the history of our human race, and its previous owner was even a cultivator in the middle stage of the Spiritualization Realm. If it can be successfully sacrificed and refined, the benefits will naturally be great!"

After hearing his analysis, Zhou Chun also frowned.

The incarnation of Taigeng Divine Lord said that it was difficult to deal with Venerable Xuanwu, and there was obviously a deeper meaning to his words.

Zhou Chun kept it in mind but didn't ask any more questions.

He then looked at the Changchun Master and said, "Senior Changchun, I will first try to practice and communicate with the [Nine Heavens Wind and Thunder Fan]. If that doesn't work, I will try the [Dapeng Lingxiao Sword]."

"Well, then you come with me."

Venerable Changchun nodded, and without any further delay, he took Zhou Chun to the place where the [Nine Heavens Wind and Thunder Fan] was enshrined.

[Nine Heavens Wind and Thunder Fan] was kept by the Reverend Changchun, but he was unable to refine this treasure. Therefore, in order to prevent the essence of this treasure from being lost, he enshrined it in a special place in Changchun Valley.

That was the top of a mountain in Changchun Valley. Whenever there was a thunderstorm, thunder would fall from the sky and land on the top of the mountain. Under the guidance of Changchun Venerable, Zhou Chun passed through the formation and arrived here. He saw a green banana fan covered with silver thunder patterns enshrined on a black stone platform, which was now covered with cracks.

"This treasure is extremely powerful, and the spirit of the weapon is also arrogant and fierce. Fellow Daoist Zhou, you can give it a try, but don't try to force it."

While telling Zhou Chun what to pay attention to, Venerable Changchun signaled him that he could go up and communicate.

The palm-leaf fan seemed to have noticed the arrival of the two Jindan-stage cultivators. When Zhou Chun stepped forward, it suddenly and automatically stood up from the black stone platform and attacked Zhou Chun.

The green and silver spiritual lights on the banana fan were shining together, and the violent power of wind and thunder intertwined and merged together, rushing towards Zhou Chun like a torrent.

The momentum was almost as strong as the thunder he encountered when he was undergoing the tribulation before.

If an ordinary cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage were to face him, he would probably suffer a considerable loss.

However, Zhou Chun has already become a god now. Although he has not had time to cultivate any great magical powers, this level of attack is obviously not enough to pose any threat to him.

He just raised his palm and slashed forward, and a golden blade of light split the torrent of wind and thunder in front of him, and then passed through it unhindered and came to the stone platform.

He stood in front of the stone platform, staring at the green banana fan floating in the air on the stone platform and said, "I am a newly promoted Divine Transformation cultivator of the human race. If you are willing to accompany me, I will definitely treat you well and allow you to leave this corner and see the wider world outside!"

The spirit of Tongtian Lingbao has the intelligence of a teenager at the lowest level, so Zhou Chun is not afraid that the other party may not understand what he means.

But it was obvious that he did not have the so-called domineering aura that could make the spirit of the [Nine Heavens Wind and Thunder Fan], a magical treasure, recognize him as its master with just a word.

Not only that, his words actually caused the other party to laugh at him.

"You, a human cultivator, are so arrogant! You are just a newly promoted Divine Incarnation cultivator, and you dare to say that you want to take me to see the wider world outside? Have you ever seen the exiled immortals from the upper realm? Do you know what the upper realm is like? Do you have any innate spiritual objects?"

"You are not even as good as Changchun, and you still want me to recognize you as my master. How ridiculous!"

The voice of an old-fashioned person floated out from the green banana fan, and Zhou Chun's face twitched and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

It's just a piece of artifact!
How dare you mock him like this!

If it weren't for the advice of Lord Changchun, Zhou Chun would have let this fan know what it means that a spirit cannot be insulted!

After taking a deep look at the green banana leaf fan, he exhaled lightly towards Changchun Reverend and said, "Forget it, since I have no chance to possess this item, I will not force it. Senior Changchun, let's go!"

Upon seeing this, Changchun Zun immediately comforted him softly, "Fellow Daoist Zhou, don't bother with this guy. This is just his nature. Otherwise, Lingfeng would not have given up on communicating with him and instead chose the magical treasure [Nine Heavens Wind God Bow]!"

"Of course I won't argue with a mere artifact, so let it continue to sit in the well and watch the world!"

Zhou Chun smiled, and immediately left with Reverend Changchun.

When the two returned outside, the incarnation of Tai Geng God learned of Zhou Chun's failure and whispered to him, "Since you, Brother Zhou, are not destined to get the [Nine Heavens Wind and Thunder Fan], then choose the [Dapeng Lingxiao Sword]. Although the sword spirit of that sword is also arrogant, as a swordsman, he actually prefers fighting and killing, so he is not opposed to recognizing others as his master!"

"Thank you, Senior Tai Geng, for your advice. Now I know what to do."

Zhou Chun nodded, agreeing with this matter.

Then he consulted Venerable Changchun about some matters related to the creation of the martial arts method, and then returned to the State of Yu first.

Although this trip to Changchun Valley did not bring any direct benefits, it at least gave Zhou Chun a clear idea of ​​what to do in the future, and the gains were actually very great.

"Congratulations, father, on becoming a god. May you live forever!"

"Congratulations, Master, for achieving the state of transformation into a god!"

"Congratulations, Master, for achieving divine enlightenment!"

Kunwu Peak, when Zhou Chun returned from Changchun Valley, his relatives and disciples who were summoned by him all congratulated him with joy on their faces.

Seeing this, he smiled and nodded slightly to these relatives and disciples, saying: "I accept your congratulations. I hope you can also work hard to practice and become equal to me soon!"

He just said this, but Zhou Xinyuan and the others didn't really take it seriously.

All of them are still far from the late Nascent Soul stage, so they can just think about the matter of Spiritual Transformation.

After this brief talk, Zhou Xinyuan brought up the main topic: "Father, please understand. After the news of your divine transformation spread, many Nascent Soul cultivators have come to greet you, hoping to pay you a visit. Among them are some of your old friends. What do you think we should do?"

As Zhou Chun's only son, he was the only one who could receive those great monks.

Although those people didn't dare to give him any cold treatment, he felt some pressure after a long time, so he wanted to get a result as soon as possible.

After hearing his words, Zhou Chun nodded and said, "Then let's ask a few great monks to come over, and let the others go."

"Yes, I will tell them what my father meant!"

Zhou Xinyuan responded and immediately went to convey the Dharma decree in person.

After Zhou Xinyuan left, Zhou Chun immediately took out a small wooden bottle and handed it to Luo Qingni, saying, "Qingni, these few drops of [Immortal Pine Juice] were obtained from me when I visited the Changchun Master. You can take them back and consume them first. I'll come to see you later when I'm free!"

Hearing his words, Luo Qingni's eyes immediately revealed a touch of emotion. After looking at him with her beautiful eyes, she nodded slightly and replied softly, "Well, then I will take my leave first."

Having said that, he took the small wooden bottle and left.

Zhou Chun quickly waved his hands to Zhou Zhiying, Yin Longjun and the others and said, "You guys go ahead. I'll call you over later when I'm free."

"Yes, disciple (subordinate) obeys your command."

Zhou Zhiying and others responded and withdrew.

Not long after, under the leadership of Zhou Xinyuan, as many as six great monks including Nangong Wuqing, Chongshan Zhenren, Ye Qingxuan, etc., came to Kunwu Peak together.

Because Kunwu Peak had not been rebuilt at that time, Zhou Chun met these people at the place where he had attained enlightenment before.

When these six great monks came to within twenty or thirty feet of him, they could feel the aura of the great laws emanating from him without even having to deliberately release their spiritual sense to investigate.

Ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators cannot feel this aura. Only the great Nascent Soul late stage cultivators who have reached the realm of spiritual consciousness transformation can feel and touch it.

Once they feel these, they will feel awe and yearning from the bottom of their hearts.

Therefore, they knew almost the moment they saw Zhou Chun that the rumors were absolutely true and Zhou Chun had indeed succeeded in becoming a god!

So after the initial shock, several people bowed to Zhou Chun and said, "We pay our respects to the Venerable Chunjun. We wish the Venerable Chunjun to achieve divine enlightenment and longevity!"

"Fellow Daoists, please don't be polite. I am just one step ahead. With your cultivation, you will definitely have the opportunity to travel with me in the future!"

Zhou Chun waved his hand and replied with a faint smile.

As for whether or not people believe what he said, that is up to each individual.

While several great cultivators were thinking about his words, the only female cultivator among them suddenly bowed to him and said, "The Lord Chunjun has achieved divine enlightenment, which is a great event that has not happened to our human race for thousands of years. I, Bing Ling, am not talented enough, but I would like to offer you three drops of [Ten Thousand Years Ice Marrow] as a gift!"

Hearing this, the other great monks were all stunned, and couldn't help but secretly curse Master Bing Ling for his cunningness.

They were all old friends of Zhou Chun. This time they came to visit Zhou Chun, not only to confirm whether the rumors were true, but also to see if Zhou Chun could teach them some ideas and thoughts on how to become a spirit.

As for gifts, I never even thought about preparing one.

After all, things that can catch the eye of a cultivator in the God Transformation Stage are extremely rare in the world; even spiritual treasures are not qualified!

Besides, there is no such practice in the world of immortal cultivation!
Transforming into a spirit is not like forming a fetus. Generally, no grand ceremony will be held even if the transformation into a spirit is successful.

A cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Stage is above everything and does not need any ceremony or ritual to increase his or her presence.

But Master Bing Ling was different from them. He had not had much interaction with Zhou Chun originally. He knew that if Zhou Chun really wanted to impart his ideas and experience on the transformation into a spirit, he might not be able to compete with them, his old friends.

So before coming, he deliberately prepared a valuable gift, hoping to win Zhou Chun's favor.

But this move of hers undoubtedly put the others in a difficult position.

Six great monks accepted the summons together. Now she took the lead in sending gifts, which are spiritual objects of the level of [Ten Thousand Years Ice Marrow]. How should others deal with this?

Fortunately, Zhou Chun was also reasonable. When he saw the others were in a dilemma, he immediately smiled and waved his hand, saying, "I appreciate Brother Bing Ling's kindness, but there is no need for a gift. I have just entered the Spiritual Transformation Realm and still need to go into seclusion to consolidate my cultivation. I will not chat with you for now. I will reminisce with you when I have time in the future!"

But he took the initiative to thank the visitor.

With his help, the others finally resolved the awkward situation. Nangong Wuqing immediately took the lead and replied, "Then I will not disturb Senior Chunjun's practice. I will take my leave first!"

Afterwards, Ye Qingxuan, Chongshan Zhenren and others responded and said goodbye and left together.

This made Master Bing Ling extremely disappointed, but he did not dare to show it at all.

But after getting off Kunwu Peak, she rolled her eyes and said to Zhou Xinyuan who was seeing her off, "Fellow Daoist Zhou, I heard that Senior Chunjun used to sell dragon scales of a fifth-rank flood dragon. Could you please reserve three for me? I have three drops of [Ten Thousand Years Ice Marrow] here, which I'll use as a deposit!"

After saying this, he did not wait for Zhou Xinyuan to agree, and he forcibly stuffed the cold jade bottle containing [Ten Thousand Years Ice Marrow] into his hand, then waved his hand and said: "It's settled, I'll trouble you all, Brother Zhou!"
