Cultivation of Immortality: Start by Improving Spiritual Root Qualifications

Chapter 700: Zhou Xun: Middle Nascent Soul Stage? Clay chicken and clay dog ​​ears!
"How dare he do this!"

Bai Yu looked at the scene in front of him with a gloomy face, and then threw the wine glass in his hand heavily to the ground.

"How dare he insult me!"

Bai Yu had never suffered such humiliation before.

As the young master of Baigushan, he had always had everything he wanted since he was a child, and no one had ever dared to play tricks on him like this.

The maid serving on the side was trembling with fear, fearing that she might accidentally get into trouble.

"A clown! I will teach him a lesson myself later!"

The black-robed old man Wu Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a hint of anger.

"With the help of my uncle-master, he will definitely be taught a profound lesson!" Bai Yu was overjoyed when he heard this.

The strength of his uncle Wu can at least be ranked in the top five in their Baigushan. He is the greatest confidence of their Baigushan lineage in obtaining the position of the Lord of Jiangling Prefecture.

"But before that, we can let them fight it out on their own for a while. I remember that in the first round, there was still one person who dared to go against us!"

It turned out that in addition to Zhou Xun, there was another "Honggu Taoist" who did not admit defeat automatically, but defeated their candidate from Baigushan.

“If we can arrange that “Red Valley Taoist” and Zhou Xun as the opponents in the next round, we can just let them kill each other!”

Bai Yu spoke.

Arranging him as Zhou Xun's next opponent was to use his knife to kill someone. No matter who wins between the two of them, for Baigushan, an opponent will be eliminated.

On the other side, Bai Yu contacted Ji Yuan, the Nascent Soul Elder who was in charge of presiding over the duel in Jiangling Mansion.

"Little friend Bai, why did you invite me to this Fengyu Tower?"

In an elegant room in Fengyu Tower, two cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage were drinking together.

One of them was Ji Yuan, the Yuanying elder of the Great Jin Dynasty. He had completely white hair and beard, a ruddy complexion, and looked like an immortal.

The other person is Bai Yu, the young master of Baigushan.

Hearing the old man call him "young friend", Bai Yu couldn't help but flash a trace of anger in his eyes.

"This person actually looks down on me so much!"

Bai Yu is a person with natural spiritual roots and the young master of Baigushan Mountain. There is a high probability that he will be able to advance to the late Nascent Soul stage in the future.

It's just that I need something from him, so I have no choice but to pretend to be nice to him.

"Of course I need Elder Ji's help. In today's duel, Wang Heshan from White Bone Mountain was defeated by Zhou Xun!"

Bai Yu gritted his teeth, thinking of the fight during the day, a surge of anger rose from the bottom of his heart.

"Winning and losing are common. Besides, there are three cultivators from your White Bone Mountain participating in the competition, and there is also a strong man like Fellow Daoist Wu. The position of Palace Master must belong to your White Bone Mountain."

The old man had no expression on his face and spoke calmly.

"The position of Palace Master is a natural thing for us at White Bone Mountain, but Zhou Xun and Taoist Honggu actually dared to go back on their word and play tricks on us at White Bone Mountain. How can we not teach them a lesson!"

"What's even more hateful is that Zhou Xun took my spirit stones, but not only did he go back on his word, he also severely injured Elder Wang Heshan!"

"I really can't swallow this breath!"

After saying that, he showed a hateful expression and continued:
“Therefore, we need to trouble Elder Ji to change Zhou Xun’s opponent to Taoist Honggu, and let the two of them kill each other!”

"Three top-grade spirit stones!"

The old man heard this, without even raising his eyes, picked up a piece of spiritual vegetable with chopsticks, and spoke slowly.

"three"

Hearing about the three top-grade spirit stones, Bai Yu became even more angry, but thinking of the identity of the person in front of him and that he needed his help, he had to suppress his anger.
He took a deep breath and nodded:

"Okay, I'll leave this matter to Elder Ji. I have something else to do, so I won't stay any longer!"

As he spoke, he took out three top-grade spirit stones, placed them on the table, then pushed open the door and walked out.

"Old thief!"

"Old thief!"

"How dare you look at me like a child!"

After going out, Bai Yu's face was full of resentment. He had a high opinion of himself and had long considered himself a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage. Meeting Elder Ji today really made him feel upset.

"If I find an opportunity in the future, I will definitely repay you!"

On the second day, the second round of the Jiangling Prefecture competition began.
Zhou Xun looked at his opponent in front of him, the "Honggu Taoist" who was in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.

Everyone knows that this is the work of Baigushan.

The person in front of him, like him, is a "person who regrets". But they meet each other today, and it is obvious that there is something fishy going on.

"It seems that they want us to 'kill each other'!"

However, he had already recognized the position of the Lord of Jiangling Prefecture, and this Taoist Honggu was also his opponent.

Sooner or later there will be a fight!
Although this "Honggu Taoist" is not a Nascent Soul cultivator with such extraordinary talent as himself, he has been in the middle Nascent Soul stage for a hundred years.

"My dear brother, I just learned that this 'Red Valley Taoist' is a veteran cultivator in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. He has been in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul for a hundred years and has rich experience in fighting. He should not be underestimated."

Tianci Zhenjun transmitted the message to Zhou Xun.

"Thank you, Brother Dao!"

"Fellow Daoist Zhou, I know that you are just like me. We are both resentful of the secret manipulation of White Bone Mountain. We can be considered as fellow practitioners!"

“It’s a pity that Hong is determined to become the Palace Master, so I have no choice but to take action today!”

"But fellow Daoist is only in the early stage of Nascent Soul, so why not take the initiative to stop, so as not to hurt our relationship!"

"When I obtain the position of the Lord of the Prefecture, how about you take over the post of the Magistrate of Jiangling Prefecture?"

Taoist Honggu spoke with a voice as loud as copper and a sincere look on his face.

"I appreciate your kindness, fellow Taoist!"

"To be honest, I am attending this conference just for the Palace Master. Let's have a competition. If you have great magical powers, I will go by myself!" Zhou Xun said, bowing.

"Well, since Fellow Daoist Zhou insists, let me show you some of your tricks."

After saying this, Taoist Honggu waved his hand.
A red light suddenly appeared in the sky.
Then, a bronze tripod over a hundred feet in size appeared on the scene.

"Be careful, fellow Taoist!" Taoist Honggu said, and then pointed at Zhou Xun.

The bronze tripod pressed down on Zhou Xun's head like a mountain, and a sense of oppression locked him directly.

"What a magic weapon!" Zhou Xun exclaimed.

He made a hand gesture and pointed at the bronze tripod above.
"Fuck!"

Accompanied by thunder,

Dozens of purple sword auras suddenly appeared, forming a giant sword shield that easily blocked the giant tripod.

Then Zhou Xun waved his hand.
The Xuanting Thunder Sword appeared out of thin air.

It turned into a three-foot long body, suspended in front of him, with blue and purple lightning arcs flashing around it, and crackling sounds!
"Sword Shadow Becomes One"

Then he put his hands together and shouted softly,
The magic power surged at his fingertips, and a ray of spiritual light shone on the Xuanting Thunder Sword and struck it! Sword lights appeared out of thin air, surrounding Zhou Xun, flying up and down. If you count carefully, there are at least 360 swords!

Then the spell changed.
These sword lights then merged into the Xuan Ting Thunder Sword one by one, like hundreds of birds returning to the forest!
With each sword light, the lightning sword will become brighter.
When all the sword lights merged, the entire lightning sword became extremely bright, like white light, extremely dazzling.
The entire sword began to tremble slightly, as if it was excited about the attack.

"This is the method used by sword cultivators!"

Bai Yu opened his eyes wide. Even from such a distance, he could still feel the pressure coming from the sword.

"Where on earth did this Zhou Xun come from? Why is there no experience or information about him?"

Bai Yu couldn't help but yelled angrily.

He used the information from White Bone Mountain to investigate Zhou Xun's origins. Strangely, this person appeared out of thin air.
There is no previous information about him.

This also means that he cannot use the same method he used against Feng Yang to deal with Zhou Xun.

Can only rely on hard power!

But the scene before him indicated that this person was not an ordinary Nascent Soul early stage cultivator.

Thunder cultivator plus sword cultivator!

I'm afraid that even a cultivator at the peak of the middle stage of the Nascent Soul wouldn't dare to say that he would definitely win!
"Uncle-master, if you were asked to fight against this person, are you sure you can defeat him?" Bai Yu looked at Wu Feng standing aside.

At this time, the old man in black robe had a serious face. When he heard Bai Yu's question,
After a moment's silence, he uttered four words:
"Fifty-fifty!"

Bai Yu's heart sank when he heard this. This man had only demonstrated this one sword technique, but his arrogant uncle dared to only say that he had a 50% chance of winning.
Who knows if he has other tricks?

After thinking for a moment, I made a decision:
"Uncle Master, what if I lend you the 'Mysterious Bone King'?"

"What? Senior Brother actually assigned it all to you!" Wu Feng was shocked.

The Black Bone King, also known as the 'Black Bone Flying Zombie' of the White Bone Mountain, is one of the three great bone zombies of Master Bai Gu. His strength is almost comparable to that of a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage.
It is precisely because of these three bone zombies that Baigushan has such a great reputation and Baigushan has become the number one sect in Jingzhou.

"My father was worried about my safety, so he assigned 'Xuan Gu King' to me!" Bai Yu replied.

"If we can get its help, there will be no problem in defeating Zhou Xun!" Wu Feng said confidently.

With the help of the Xuan Gu Flying Zombie, he can now confront a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage head-on!
"Okay, then I'll rely on my uncle!"

"However, this person is a thunder cultivator, which has a restraining effect on the 'Mysterious Bone King'. Uncle Master needs to be more cautious!"

On the other side, Taoist Honggu sensed the power of the sword and his face was filled with horror.

"Is this really the strength that a cultivator in the early stage of Nascent Soul can possess?"

"Where on earth did this monster come from?!"

But he was unwilling to give up like this.

He reached for his waist, and a scarlet shield appeared in his hand, with lines of flames engraved on it, as if it was on fire.
Then he put his hands together and pointed at the shield.
A flash of red light,
The shield swelled in the wind, turning into a giant shield over three hundred feet in size, with a blazing flame on its surface.
One look at it shows that the defense is extraordinary.

At this time, Zhou Xun's sword shadow transformation had been activated.
He had no expression on his face.
He looked indifferently at the Taoist Honggu in the distance and pointed at it lightly!
"go with!"

The lightning sword was like a flash of lightning, instantly cutting through the void and shooting towards Taoist Honggu.

Wherever it passed, bolts of lightning shot out, making crackling sounds.

Taoist Honggu instantly sensed the approaching powerful force of thunder and lightning, and a hint of vigilance flashed in his eyes.

I suddenly lost confidence in this shield.

With a wave of his hand, two defensive talismans flew out and transformed into two golden translucent shields, blocking in front.

In this way, with three lines of defense, he felt a little safe.

At this moment, the Xuan Ting Thunder Sword, carrying the power of thunder, slammed heavily into the three lines of defense.

In an instant, golden light, fire, and lightning arcs intertwined and flashed, and a deafening roar broke out, as if the heaven and earth were shaking.

The first two layers of golden shields shattered instantly, leaving only the giant flame shield, which shook violently under the impact of the lightning sword.
The crimson light flickered, struggling to hold on, as if it would shatter in the next moment.

Taoist Honggu had a solemn expression on his face, and his hands kept changing spells in an attempt to stabilize his defense.

Beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.

Suddenly, he shouted loudly, and the magic power in his body surged out like a tide and poured into the crumbling defense.

The flames on the giant flaming shield instantly rose high and burned fiercely, trying to burn away the power of the thunder sword.

Seeing this, Zhou Xun snorted coldly and tapped his fingers again. The lightning arc on the Xuan Ting Thunder Sword became more violent, and the sword body trembled violently, and it started to move again.
A powerful impact force erupted and hit the giant flame shield heavily.

He was knocked flying directly.

It turned into a half-foot-sized red shield and fell to the ground.
The Xuan Ting Thunder Sword continued to move forward, hovering in front of Taoist Honggu, with the tip of the sword pointing at him.

Seeing this scene, Taoist Honggu smiled bitterly. He already knew that he would lose, but he didn't imagine losing so quickly.

So he sighed and said:

"I surrender!"

Then, the referee monk Ji Yuan looked at Zhou Xun deeply, and then announced:

"Zhou Xun, win!"

Hearing this result, Bai Yu's face darkened, and he said to Wu Feng beside him:
"Next, it's up to you, uncle!"

"Do not worry!"

Soon, a day passed and the second round of fighting ended.
Then came the third round and the fourth round.

In these two rounds, Zhou Xun defeated his opponents with great strength, including a man from White Bone Mountain.

This was hard for Bai Yu to accept.

Fortunately, the final battle for the position of Lord of Jiangling Prefecture is about to begin.

Outside the West City Gate,

Ji Yuan slowly flew over the third ring and glanced at everyone:
"Next, it will be the battle for the victory of the Lord of Jiangling Prefecture."

"I reiterate the rules. You are absolutely not allowed to hurt anyone. Otherwise, you will be hunted down by our Dajin and Boruo Temple!"

"Zhou Xun, Wu Feng, you guys start!"

The words fell,

Zhou Xun flew up and came to the high platform.

Opposite him, an old man in a black robe stood in the air. It was Wu Feng whom he had met that day.

"Zhou Xun, if you admit defeat now, we at White Bone Mountain will forgive you for what happened. Otherwise, after the conference is over, you will have to bear the wrath of White Bone Mountain!"

At this time, Zhou Xun heard Wu Feng's voice.

"Among the twenty-six prefectures in Jingzhou, Jiangling Prefecture is only ranked in the middle. Why are you so fond of Baigushan? It seems that there are other mysteries!"

Zhou Xun did not answer directly, but talked about a guess he had thought of today.

"you wanna die!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Feng's face changed drastically, and then immediately returned to normal.
"Today, I will let you see the strengths of my White Bone Mountain. You must know that the monks of the sect cannot be bullied!"

Saying this,
A seven-foot-tall white skeleton appeared in front of him, with a faint green fire in its eyes.
It was the "Xuan Gu Fei Zombie"!
