Cultivation of Immortality: Start by Improving Spiritual Root Qualifications

Chapter 630 Feng Zhong: I have become the ancestor of the Earth!
Zhou Xun opened his eyes slightly and looked through the Tianji Cave Mansion at the familiar island.

His thoughts couldn't help but drift back to the past.
"I don't know how Brother Cao and the others are doing!"

At the same time, Tianfu Island.

Zheng Wang stood blankly at the port, looking at the giant beast in the sky.

He was originally a fisherman in the nearby sea area. One time when he was out fishing, he accidentally rescued a seriously injured immortal, who was a cultivator from the Tianfu Sect.

During the recovery period, this person casually checked Zheng Wang's body, but he never thought that

Zheng Wang turned out to be a rare mortal with spiritual roots, so he was taken back to the sect for further testing.

More amazing things are coming.

Zheng Wang not only possesses spiritual roots, but also has outstanding talent. His wood spiritual roots are 76 points.
Even Zhou Xun's disciple Luo Yuancheng is far inferior to him.

Several Jindan Zhenren of Tianfu Sect could not help but be overjoyed.

Such qualifications can be called the Nascent Soul Seed.

So after everyone's discussion, Luo Yuancheng finally accepted him under his wing and made him his first disciple.

As for the reason, I think it has something to do with Zhou Xun.

With such talent, and the relationship with Zhou Xun's disciple, maybe he really has a chance to see the Nascent Soul stage.
In this way, their Tianfu Sect can be said to have truly risen.

One day, Zheng Wang was leading his disciples to maintain order at the port when he suddenly saw a giant monster flying over from a distance.
Although he had joined Tianfu Sect for several years, he was already seventeen years old at that time, and his three views on life had basically taken shape.

Therefore, seeing this huge beast, he was greatly shocked, his voice trembled, and he said:
"The monster is at least a third-grade upper-grade one!"

"Hurry up and report to the master, demon beasts are attacking the island!"

at this time,

"Snapped--"

A slap hit the back of his head.
Feeling the pain, Zheng Wang couldn't help but cry out "ouch" and staggered forward.

"Who?"

He could not help but get furious. Since he became Luo Yuancheng's disciple, no one had dared to treat him like this.
He immediately turned around and glared at the person, wanting to see who was so bold.
Seeing this, he couldn't help but shrink back and his expression became embarrassed.

"Master, why is it you!"

The person who came was none other than his master Luo Yuancheng.

"What monster? That giant beast is the Diyuan ancestor under your master's seat!" Luo Yuancheng said unhappily.

This eldest disciple of mine is good in every way except that he is too cautious. Perhaps it is because he was born as a fisherman, so he shrinks from everything.
Even if you have 100% ability, what you show outwardly will not exceed 5% at most.

"What? The Earth Ancestor!" Zheng Wang's expression instantly turned into surprise.
He learned a lot about the deeds of this Earth Ancestor from his senior brothers and sisters in the sect.

"Let's go. I'll take you to see Master. I think he will be very happy to see you!"

As he spoke, he picked up Zheng Wang and flew towards the giant beast in the distance.
At the same time, from all over Tianfu Island, streams of light shot up into the sky, all heading towards the direction of the Diyuan Beast.

Zhou Xun put away the Tianji Cave Mansion, jumped off the back of the Earthly Beast, and floated in the air.

The earth beast Feng Zhong also shrank in size and followed behind him obediently.

Ten Jindan cultivators landed one after another and stood aside respectfully.

"Welcome Master Wangchuan back to the island!"

Cao Feiyu, the Thousand Symbols Master, stood at the front, and beside him stood Wen Yue, Li Daniu, and Luo Yuancheng.
Further back, there were the foundation-building monks from Tianfu Island.
Everyone lined up together and, led by Cao Feiyu, bowed and saluted together.

"We are old friends, why be so polite!"

Zhou Xun smiled slightly and raised his hand.

A gentle lifting force lifted everyone up.

Zhou Xun then stepped into the air and came in front of Cao Feiyu and the others, looking at them.

Decades have passed, and several people have made considerable progress in their cultivation.

Thousand Symbols Master Cao Feiyu has now entered the middle stage of Jindan, and Wen Yue has also entered the peak of the early stage.

I think in a few decades, it will be no problem to be promoted to the middle level.

As for Li Daniu, his aptitude is mediocre, and it was just luck that he was able to enter the Jindan stage. His future potential is limited.

The one with the greatest potential is Zhou Xun's sixth disciple Luo Yuancheng. He has the talent of earth spirit roots and has Zhou Xun's support.

I can’t say for Nascent Soul, but there shouldn’t be too many problems in the late stage of Core Formation.

This means that it is no longer a big problem for them to dominate the entire Tianfu Island waters.

At this time, everyone saw Feng Zhong behind Zhou Xun. He looked like a human. Based on their knowledge,

How could I not know that this was a sign of advancement to the fourth level?

Congratulations again:
"Congratulations to Patriarch Di Yuan for his advancement to the fourth level. Great success!"

"You are either my master's friends or his disciples. There is no need to be so polite. Just call each other fellow Taoists!"

Although Feng Zhong is simple and honest, he is a man of talent and naturally would not be so arrogant.

If he acted like an ancestor in front of them, where would Zhou Xun stand?
"We are all family, so just listen to Feng Zhong!" Zhou Xun said with a smile.

When everyone heard this, smiles appeared on their faces and the atmosphere became relaxed and joyful.

Zhou Xun looked at these familiar faces in front of him, feeling a lot of emotions in his heart. He thought of the hardships and obstacles he had experienced in this sea area, and thought of the growth and progress of everyone now, and his heart was filled with satisfaction.

"What's the situation on Tianfu Island in recent years?" Zhou Xun asked.

Cao Feiyu stepped forward and answered respectfully: "Brother Daoist, under your protection, Master Tieshan has also taken good care of us. Now, no third-level monster has entered the waters of Tianfu Island for more than ten years!"

"Because of the stability, many monks from the surrounding seas have migrated here."

"Tianfu Island is developing rapidly, and the number of disciples on the island is increasing day by day. Just a few years ago, we accepted a disciple with earth spirit roots, and now he is studying under Yuan Cheng!"

"Earth Spiritual Root?"

Zhou Xun couldn't help showing a hint of interest, and looked at Zheng Wang behind Luo Yuancheng.
"Could it be this boy?"

Luo Yuancheng quickly pushed Zheng Wang behind him and said, "Why don't you pay your respects to the Grandmaster?"

Zheng Wang finally came to his senses and looked at Zhou Xun, who was only a few years older than him.

He immediately bowed down and kowtowed three times in a row!
"Disciple. Disciple pays homage to the Grandmaster!"

"Yes, let me see!"

Zhou Xun smiled slightly and waved his hand.

Zheng Wang immediately walked over and lowered his body. Zhounian grabbed his wrist and began to examine him.
"Yes, the wood spiritual root is 76 points. Yuan Cheng, you have accepted a good disciple!"

After saying that, he slapped his storage bag, took out a two-inch jade-colored gourd, and handed it over.

"This is a treasure I used in the past. It was passed down from my master. I am giving it to you today!"

It was the Mu Yao Gourd, the natal magic weapon of Master Baiyun.

"Thank you, Master!"

Zheng Wang was overjoyed. Although he could not recognize the specific grade of this item, it must be no ordinary item if it was made by his Nascent Soul Grandmaster.

The surrounding Jindan cultivators all showed envious looks.

With their vision, they could naturally see the extraordinaryness of this gourd.

Zhou Xun talked with everyone for a while, and after learning about the recent situation of Tianfu Island, he decided to stay on the island for a while. Everyone was delighted when they heard this.

Zhou Xun walked towards Tianfu Island, and everyone hurriedly followed.

The scenery on the island remains the same, with lush trees.

"Brother Cao, I'll trouble you to take care of these subordinates of mine!"

Zhou Xun pointed at Wang Lingfeng and the others and said.

"Brother Dao, rest assured!" He had learned from Zhou Xun that these Jindan cultivators all had strong backgrounds.

Making friends with them would be beneficial to both myself and Tianfu Island.
So I did my best and made arrangements personally.

As for Wang Lingfeng and the others, they were also very polite. They all heard Zhou Xun personally address Cao Feiyu as "brother".

This shows that they have a special relationship, so naturally they won't take advantage of it.

When he returned to his cave residence, he found it had been sealed up.
Zhou Xun returned and naturally resumed his duties.
Looking at the layout that was exactly the same as in the past, Zhou Xun couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion.

He said to Luo Yuancheng behind him:
"You are interested!"

"As long as Master is satisfied!" Luo Yuancheng bowed.

When they arrived at the reception room, only Luo Yuancheng, Wen Yue and Li Daniu were left there.

"I haven't seen you for decades, and Brother Zhou is even more charming than before!" Wen Yue said softly, with a barely perceptible hint of sorrow in her tone.

Zhou Xun smiled slightly,
"The same is true for Miss Zhou. She may be able to enter the late stage of Jindan in the future!"

As he spoke, he patted his storage bag and took out two jade boxes, both of which were filled with Purple Essence Pills.
This was the trophy he got after killing a monk.

He handed one of them to Wen Yue.
"You are already at the peak of the early stage. With this Purple Essence Pill, a breakthrough should be within your reach!"

"Thank you, brother!" Wen Yue took it without refusing.

She knew that the gap between herself and Zhou Xun was too big, and she had already given up on such unrealistic ideas.
But when she saw Zhou Xun again, her heart was inevitably filled with ripples.

He handed the second Purple Essence Pill to Li Daniu.

"Daniu, although your aptitude is a little poor, if you concentrate on practicing, plus this pill, you will have a good chance of reaching the middle stage of practice in the future. Don't let your guard down!"

Li Daniu waved his hand and refused.
"Brother, I appreciate your kindness!"

"But my aptitude is low, and I am lucky to be able to form a pill. I dare not ask for too much!"

"Being able to live out my life on Tianfu Island is what I have always wanted,"

"As for this pill, let's give it to Fellow Daoist Yuan Cheng!"

After hearing this, Zhou Xun did not force him. After all, everyone has their own aspirations. So he said to Luo Yuancheng:

"In that case, you can take it!"

"Yes, thank you, Master, and thank you, Fellow Daoist Li!"

Luo Yuancheng waved his hand and put the pills into the storage bag.

Zhou Xun looked at Li Daniu. They were both his brothers, so it was not right to favor one over the other. After thinking for a moment, he took out a third-level high-quality escape talisman.
"Well, since you have no intention of practicing, you can take this escape talisman. It can be regarded as a way to save your life!"

"Thank you, brother!" This time, Li Daniu did not refuse and happily accepted it.

Then, everyone discussed the Dao for a while, but it was basically Wen Yue and others asking questions, and Zhou Xun answering.

It was not until nightfall that they said goodbye and left with satisfaction. It was obvious that they had benefited greatly from Yuanying Zhenjun's guidance.

As for Luo Yuancheng, he was kept by Zhou Xun.
As his disciple, Zhou Xun rarely had the opportunity to teach. Now that he had a rare chance to stay on Tianfu Island, he naturally had to fulfill his responsibilities as a master.

"Master!"

The young man bowed to the ground and performed a great salute again.

"Come here!" Zhou Xun pointed to the stone table beside him. Although Luo Yuancheng didn't understand what he meant, he still walked over obediently.

"Take out your talisman paper and talisman pen so that I can see how your talisman skills are progressing!" Zhou Xun said with a smile.

"Yes!"

Luo Yuancheng slapped his storage bag, and several rays of light flew out and landed on the stone table.

A talisman pen, talisman ink, and a stack of third-level talisman paper.

Over the years, he has been studying the art of talismans diligently, and now he has reached the peak of the lower grade, and is only one step away from the middle grade.
Now is a good opportunity to show off my skills in front of Master.

The young man sat upright, spread out the talisman paper with his left hand, picked up the talisman pen with his right hand, lightly tapped the spiritual ink, and began to draw!
The pen moves like a dragon and a snake, and it's all done in one go!
The spiritual power circuit is restored instantly!
The young man picked up the semi-finished talisman and handed it to Zhou Xun.
"Please give me some advice, Master!"

Zhou Xun took it and looked at it carefully.
"Not bad. The lines are even and beautiful, and the spiritual energy flows smoothly. Among the third-level low-grade talismans, it is a rare masterpiece!"

"It seems you haven't relaxed in these years!"

Zhou Xun then took out a stack of third-level medium-quality talisman paper.
"Try the third-level mid-grade talisman!"

"Yes!"

The young man did as he was told and picked up the talisman pen to draw again!
He chose the Fire Bird Talisman that he was most familiar with.
However, when he just finished writing, the talisman disappeared, and suddenly a green smoke rose up, turning into a ball of flame that burned up in an instant.

"With your level, you are only a thin layer of window paper away from the middle grade. Let me draw it for you!"

Zhou Xun walked over, picked up Luo Yuancheng's talisman pen, tapped the spiritual ink,

Start drawing the Firebird symbol.

This time, Zhou Xun drew the pictures slowly and explained the key points patiently.

It took about half an incense stick of time to finish the painting.

It is several times more than before.

But after this kind of hands-on teaching, Luo Yuancheng gained some insights. He sat cross-legged, as if he was digesting the content.

Seeing this, Zhou Xun smiled slightly, did not disturb him, and went back to the bedroom to rest.

The next morning, when Zhou Xun stepped out of the bedroom door, Luo Yuancheng was still sitting cross-legged in the hall.

suddenly--

He opened his eyes, and there was a look of enlightenment in them.
Grab the talisman pen,
Start drawing.

The firebird symbol was drawn successfully with the strokes of a pen moving smoothly and in one go.

Luo Yuancheng was overjoyed and bowed hurriedly:

"Thank you Master for your guidance!"

"Consolidate it well!" Zhou Xun gave the order, then walked out of the cave's gate, his figure becoming illusive, and wandered around the island.

After staying for another day, on the third day, Zhou Xun set off.

"Master, you think I am unfilial. Why don't you stay with me for a while longer?" Luo Yuancheng begged on his knees.

"All good things must come to an end. I'll be back on my way back!" Zhou Xun said with a smile.

"Disciple awaits Master!"

Then Zhou Xun set off again, heading towards the Ringless Island.

One day later, there is no roundabout.
When the figure of the local Yuan Beast appeared again, the cultivators of Wuhuan Island knew that Zhou Xun had found it.
He immediately went to the cave of Master Tieshan to report.

The Earthly Beast had been promoted to the Demon King, and the movement was so great that when they approached the waters of the Uncircled Island,
Master Tieshan already knew.
At this time, he was staying in Zhou Xuntianji Cave, drinking tea and discussing Taoism.
