Cultivation of Immortality: Start by Improving Spiritual Root Qualifications

Chapter 629: Inspection mission, revisiting the old place!
Patrolling the sea?
Zhou Xun was moved when he heard this. Indeed, every Nascent Soul cultivator in Zhenhai Immortal City had such a mission.

Tianci Zhenjun and Xuanlei Zhenjun had accepted such a task before. This was a rule jointly set by the three major forces, and no one could avoid it.
Zhou Xun had no resistance to this and agreed naturally.

"There is naturally no problem with this matter,"

Upon hearing this, Master Qianchuan nodded and continued:

"There are two types of patrol missions this time. One is to patrol millions of miles around Zhenhai Fairy City, which can be completed in three months at most."

"Another option is to patrol the entire South China Sea territory of the human race. This will take at least a year. However, once this patrol is completed, there will be no similar missions assigned to you for at least fifty years."

"As for the former, they usually rotate every ten to fifteen years!"

"It depends on what you think, brother!"

Hearing this, Zhou Xun lowered his head and thought.

Although the former is short in duration, it will have to be carried out every ten years or so, which is very troublesome.

Although the latter takes a long time, it can at least guarantee fifty years of peace. Moreover, since we want to patrol the entire human territory, we must pass through the sea area of ​​​​Tianfu Island.

In this way, he could go back to Tianfu Island and chat with Master Tieshan, Master Qianfu and others.

They haven't seen each other for decades.

In addition, the "Fire Cloud Mushroom" that has been nurtured to the fourth-grade top grade can also be handed over to the main body.

Thinking of this, Zhou Xun made a decision in his heart:
"In this case, I will choose the latter option and patrol the entire South China Sea!"

"I guess that's what I'll choose!"

As he spoke, he took out a jade talisman and handed it to Zhou Xun. It was the 1,000,000-mile communication jade talisman that he had borrowed before.
"By the way, do you have anything to say, brother?"

Zhou Xun asked casually.

"It's nothing. I hope you can take care of my disciple Lingfeng at that time!" said Master Qianchuan.

Lingfeng is naturally Wang Lingfeng,

Zhou Xun finally understood why Master Qianchuan asked him to inform him.

It's just to deepen the connection so that if we encounter danger during patrol, we can take him with us.

You know, although they are patrolling the sea area within the human race's sphere of influence,
But it's not stable.
Over the past few decades, several Yuanying Zhenjun have died here.

For example, Dan Yuan Zhenjun, whom Zhou Xun had met before, encountered the Black Island Demon King while on patrol and died in one day.

"Friend Wang and I are old acquaintances, so it is my duty to take care of him!"

Upon hearing this, Master Qianchuan showed a look of relief on his face, and he bowed and said, "Thank you very much, fellow Taoist. I hope you will pay more attention during this patrol. If there is any abnormal situation, please report it in time."

Zhou Xun nodded slightly and responded: "Brother Dao, rest assured, I will be careful and cautious."

Afterwards, Zhou Xun and Master Qianchuan discussed some details of the patrol and then went back to prepare.

Wang Lingfeng followed Zhou Xun out of the Zhenhai Palace. Along the way, he looked respectful and said to Zhou Xun, "During this tour, I will definitely follow your instructions and will not slack off in the slightest."

Zhou Xun waved his hand
"No need to be so polite. You and I are old acquaintances. During this patrol, we should face the danger together."

After returning to his residence, Zhou Xun began to sort out his treasures.

Danyuan wine is a must. This patrol will take at least three months to go back and forth, so it cannot be wasted.
At that time, he only needs to sit cross-legged on the back of the mount and practice quietly.

Then, he summoned the two monsters, the Earth Beast and the Red Noon Spirit Turtle, to discuss who would be responsible for going out with him. The task was simple, and he did not plan to bring both monsters with him.

When they heard that Zhou Xun was going out, the two demons' eyes lit up instantly and they both wanted to follow him.

The Red Noon Spirit Turtle spoke first: "Master, you must take me with you on this patrol. I have lived in the South China Sea for many years, and I am very familiar with the human sea area!"

When the Earth Element Beast heard this, it was not willing to do so. Since the old turtle came, the role of the mount had almost become his exclusive responsibility.

During that time, he could only stay in the spirit beast bag, feeling very depressed.
After working hard and successfully advancing to the Demon King, he naturally wanted to take back his position, so he spoke without hesitation:
"Master, I am extremely fast and can quickly explore the way and warn you when danger comes. The Red Noon Spirit Turtle is slow and will only be a hindrance if it goes."

"Don't talk nonsense! My fire escape technique is not much worse than yours. Besides, my defense is amazing. I can defend for my master at the critical moment!"

Chi Wuling retorted sarcastically.

"Have you forgotten that I have an indestructible body? My defense is no worse than your tortoise shell."

The two demons argued with each other until their faces turned red.

Zhou Xun frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "Okay, stop arguing. Only one person needs to follow us on this patrol. I will make the decision myself."

The two demons then stopped arguing and looked at Zhou Xun eagerly, waiting for his decision.

Zhou Xun thought for a moment and said, "Since the Earthly Beast was promoted to the fourth level, it has never been out. This time, he will go with me."

Then he looked at Chi Wu again and ordered:

"You stay in the cave and guard this place."

The Earthly Beast looked at the Red Noon Spirit Turtle with pride. Although the Red Noon Spirit Turtle felt a little disappointed, it could only obey Zhou Xun's arrangement and said:

"Master, rest assured, I will guard the cave well."

After deciding on the mount for the tour, Zhou Xun went out again.

After a while, Zhou Xun arrived at the door of Tianci Zhenjun's cave.

He took out a sound transmission talisman and fired it into the cave.

In less than a cup of tea, the cave door opened from the inside, and an old scholar with a fair face and gray hair walked out.
It is the God-given True Lord,

"Brother Daoist, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you're still as charming as ever!" Zhou Xun greeted with a smile.

The last time we met was when the Earth Beast was promoted to the Demon King. It has been several years.

"Haha, I just received a message from my brother. I thought I saw it wrong, but it turned out to be true. You really want to kill me!"

Tianci Zhenjun laughed loudly.
"what!"

Suddenly, his face changed and he looked at Zhou Xun again.

"My brother has made great progress in his cultivation!"

Immediately, Tianci Zhenjun showed an extremely surprised expression and looked him up and down carefully!
He remembered that the last time he saw Zhou Xun, his aura was not this strong. Now, in just a few years, it seemed as if he had gone through decades of hard training.
The momentum is soaring!

"Brother Dao, you have good eyesight. I was lucky enough to get some spiritual objects to assist in my cultivation, and I have made some progress!" Zhou Xun nodded and did not hide anything.

"It looks like it won't be long before you surpass me!"

Tianci Zhenjun said with emotion!
Zhou Xun didn't quite believe this.
Tianci Zhenjun's aptitude is as high as 91 points of fire spirit root. If his body had not been upgraded to this level,
Knowing how fast a person of this aptitude can cultivate, I'm afraid he would really be fooled by Lord Tianci.

"Brother Dao, you are teasing me again. I think in a few decades, you will be able to advance to the middle stage!"

Upon hearing this, Tianci Zhenjun smiled and did not refute. He then took Zhou Xun's arm and walked into the cave.

Crossing the screen wall and arriving at the reception room, Tianci Zhenjun took out the magic tea and started to prepare it!
"Brother, wait a minute, have a taste of my new spiritual wine. This wine is also the secret of my rapid progress in cultivation!"

"Oh? Then I'd really like to taste it!"

Hearing this, Zhou Xun took off the palm-sized yellow gourd from his waist and pointed at it:
"This is the spiritual wine I was talking about. A few years ago, I was fortunate enough to obtain a fourth-level mid-grade thunder-attributed demon beast inner elixir."

"So we brewed it into Danyuan wine, which was just completed a while ago!"

As he spoke, he waved his hand and two jade wine glasses appeared on the table.

The mouth of the gourd opened, and an astonishing aroma of wine instantly dissipated. At the same time, tiny arcs of lightning appeared in the air, making crackling sounds.

“This is Danyuan wine!”

Tianci Zhenjun loves tea and has a great knowledge of spiritual wine. As soon as he smelled the aroma, he recognized it.

"Haha, Brother Dao really has good eyesight!"

Zhou Xun smiled slightly and slowly poured the Danyuan wine into four wine glasses.

The amber wine poured down and rippled in the glass.

"Come, Brother, have a try." Zhou Xun raised his glass and toasted to Tianci Zhenjun.
After they clinked their glasses, they drank it all in one gulp.

"It is indeed a fourth-level middle-grade demon beast inner elixir. For me now, the effect is also very significant!"

After refining the spiritual energy and sensing a slight increase in spiritual power in his body, Tianci Zhenjun showed an envious look.

Seeing this, Zhou Xun was naturally not stingy and immediately gave more than ten kilograms to Tianci Zhenjun.

Given the relationship between the two of them, a mere spiritual wine was naturally nothing.
You know, he got two sets of Tianxuan Lingjia from Tianci Zhenjun.

This thing is so mysterious that it cannot be compared to mere spiritual wine.

After drinking almost all the wine, Zhou Xun immediately told the purpose of his visit.

"I will be leaving Zhenhai Fairy City soon to inspect the entire South China Sea. I will be gone for at least a year, so I will need you to take care of all the matters in the cave!"

"Don't worry about this matter, I'm here!" Tianci Zhenjun agreed immediately.

"The second thing is that during this inspection, I will pass by Wuhuan Island where Brother Tieshan is stationed. I wonder if Brother Tieshan has anything for me to bring back?"

"What a coincidence! I just happened to have some treasures that I needed to give him, and it's just in time for you to take over!"

As he spoke, he patted his waist and took out a jade box and a jade slip.

"It contains a fourth-level earth-attributed demon beast inner elixir. You bring it to him for me!"

After saying this, he probed into his spiritual consciousness again and began to carve on the blank jade slip.

It was completed in no time.

"And this letter, give it to him as well!"

"Don't worry, brother!"

After taking the two items, Zhou Xun did not stay long. He said goodbye and returned to his cave.

The next morning, Zhou Xun led the Earth Beast out of the cave and headed towards the East Gate.

They agreed to meet here and then set off together.

When Zhou Xun arrived at the East City Gate, he saw Wang Lingfeng and ten other Jindan cultivators already waiting there.

With a sweep of his divine sense, he took in everyone's situation.

Among his ten subordinates, two were in the late Jindan stage, one of whom was Wang Lingfeng.

There are three people in the middle stage of Jindan, and five people in the early stage of Jindan.

I don't know what's the point of bringing them along. They will just be a burden to me!
Zhou Xun looked very familiar with these people, as if he had seen them around some Nascent Soul cultivators.

"It seems like they are all related people!"

Zhou Xun sighed. This kind of thing is unavoidable even in the world of immortal cultivation.

Now Zhou Xun's strength is recognized in the Immortal City as being able to compete with the peak cultivators of the middle stage.

Since there was a patrol mission, these people naturally arranged their descendants to work under Zhou Xun, which would be safer.

Seeing Zhou Xun coming, the monks immediately became respectful.

When they saw Feng Zhong behind Zhou Xun, they were slightly stunned.
With their knowledge, they naturally saw that this was a fourth-level demon king, and they immediately became overjoyed.

This means that they have two Nascent Soul-level fighters on this trip, and safety is greatly improved!
So he bowed and said, "Greetings to Master Wangchuan and this senior!"

Zhou Xun nodded slightly and waved his hand. A lifting force lifted everyone up. It was gentle but extremely vast and irresistible.

Sensing this, the Jindan people looked even more respectful, wondering who was more powerful than their own Yuanying elders.
Finally came to the conclusion,
Lord Wangchuan is even stronger!

At this time, a Jindan cultivator dressed as a scholar stepped forward and said, "Senior Zhou, I heard that the South China Sea is full of dangers. It is our honor to be able to go there with you."

Zhou Xunwei felt that he looked familiar and asked curiously, "Who are you?"

"I am Liu Chang, a junior who became a disciple of Master Hong Yan. I am now ranked twenty-third!" the young man answered respectfully.

"So he is Master Hong's disciple!" Zhou Xun suddenly realized.
Old Man Hong was also one of the elders of Zhenhai Immortal City, and he was also a fourth-rank lower-grade formation master. Zhou Xun had met this old man at the Immortal City exchange fair that year.

Then he talked with a few other people for a while and prepared to set off.

"During this patrol, we must not only complete the mission, but also ensure our own safety. Let's go."

As soon as the words fell, the Earth Element Beast Feng Zhong, who was following behind Zhou Xun, changed his form immediately.
It revealed its true form, transforming into a spirit beast nearly a hundred feet tall, with a tiger head, a leopard body, and two wings on its back.

Zhou Xun jumped up and landed on the back of the Earth Beast.

Then he took out the Tianji House that he had obtained in the Thunder Prison.
It stimulated the placement on the broad back of the Earth Beast.
A cave with exquisite ancient music scores appeared here, and Zhou Xun was very satisfied seeing it.

"This way, even if I'm on patrol, it won't interfere with my practice!"

Immediately sent the order:

"set off!"

The ten Jindan cultivators, each using their own methods, transformed into rays of spiritual light and followed the Earth Yuan Beast, galloping towards the east.

Three months later, they were already millions of miles away from Zhenhai Fairy City.
During this period of time, Zhou Xun stayed in Tianji Cave to practice.
After taking a sip of Lei Yuan Wine every day, he would start practicing the "Purple Thunder Art" without wasting any time.

During this period, everyone encountered many monsters, but they were all third-level monsters, so Wang Lingfeng and others dealt with them on their own!
It must be said that these people with connections do have certain advantages. At least their strength is among the best among the cultivators of the same level.
In this way, Zhou Xun saved himself a lot of trouble.

As the Diyuan Beast continued to fly, a familiar island appeared in front of everyone.

Wang Lingfeng respectfully stepped forward to report.
"Senior, we have arrived at Tianfu Island!"
