Cultivation of Immortality: Start by Improving Spiritual Root Qualifications

Chapter 702: Wang Erniu’s fate, the Holy Son of Jianhu Palace?

Dajin Cultivation World, White Bone Mountain,
Deep in an unknown cave,
An old man with a stern face and sinister eyes sat on a stone platform. In front of him was a white skeleton floating.
Under his control, it emits a faint white light.
This person is none other than the supreme elder of White Bone Mountain, the feared True Lord Bai Gu who is greatly feared by the outside world.

At this moment, a beam of fire suddenly flew in from outside the cave and stayed above the cave. Sensing this, the old man suddenly opened his eyes and shot out two beams of light.
Then he waved his hand, and the fire turned into a sound transmission note and fell into his hand.

He listened carefully and found that it was his eldest son and his junior fellow apprentice who came to visit.

Then he opened his sleeves, and instantly put the skeleton in front of him into the bag on his waist, and then sent a message to the outside:
"come in!"

After a while, Wu Feng and Bai Yu walked into the cave.

As soon as they saw the old man, Bai Yu and Wu Feng bowed down:

"Meet the Supreme Elder!"

"What do you two want from me?" True Lord Bai Gu asked calmly with a blank expression.

Although it was just a common question, it sounded extremely heavy to the two men.

"My Lord, this time, Master Wu and I are participating in the Soul Seizing Conference together to compete for the position of the Lord of Jiangling Prefecture. Who would have thought that we would run into such a tough opponent!"

"Even Uncle Lian was defeated by this man!"

Bai Yu said tremblingly.

He was both in awe and fear of this father.

Hearing this, Bai Gu Zhenren did not get angry, but said calmly:
"Didn't I ask you to bring the Black Bone King with you, and also lose with it?"

But Wu Feng and Bai Yu could clearly feel an invisible pressure.

"Brother, that person is a thunder-attributed cultivator who also practices swordsmanship. With the combination of the two, even if King Xuan Gu and I join forces, we are still no match for him."

"What's more, King Xuan Gu was taken away by this person!" Wu Feng said fearfully.

Even though he was already a mid-Nascent Soul cultivator, in front of this senior brother, he was still as cautious as if he had just started.

The truth is that he knew the power and cruelty of this senior brother.
I will never care whether you are my junior brother or my son.

After all, more than one or two people died at his hands.

After hearing this, Lord Bai Gu raised his head and looked at Wu Feng. There was a threatening light in his eyes that frightened him.

"What did you say? King Xuan Gu is lost!" The voice was low and slow, but it seemed that even the surrounding stone walls were shaking.

"Your subordinates are incompetent!" Wu Feng and Bai Yu both knelt down, trembling slightly, not even daring to raise their heads.

After a long time, the might gradually faded, and only a voice was heard from above:
"Tell me how you lost!"

Then Wu Feng told the whole story of his battle with Zhou Xun that day.

"This is the first time I've seen the art of thunder sword formation!"

"He is only in the early stage of Nascent Soul, but even you and King Xuan Gu are no match for him. It seems that this person is not an ordinary person!"

Bai Gu Zhenjun said to himself.

"Yes, Elder, we have investigated this person's background. Even with the help of the Great Jin Intelligence Department, we have no information except for the news he sent from Qingzhou ten years ago!"

"It's as if it appeared out of thin air!"

"And so were his two companions!"

Bai Yu replied quickly.

"Okay, I understand. You guys go to Xuanfeng Cave and receive your twenty years of punishment!"

Hearing the words "Xuanfeng Cave", Wu Feng and Bai Yu couldn't help but tremble.
This cave is a great wonder in their White Bone Mountain. It contains the "Soul-Eroding Yin Wind", which acts on the soul.
It is as painful as extracting the soul and refining the spirit, but at the same time it also has great benefits for the soul.

The current reputation of their Baigushan is directly related to the Xuanfeng Cave.

"Yes!"

Bai Yu and Wu Feng nodded and then left.

After the two left, Bai Gu Zhen Jun's face turned gloomy.
"Zhou Xun, I hope you're not here for that thing in Jiangling Mansion!"

On the other hand, after Zhou Xun won the battle of Jiangling Prefecture,
His fame spread rapidly throughout the entire Jinyang Fairy City.

Thunder Dao Sword Cultivator, such a combination, even in the current Dajin, is only recorded in the classics.

He even defeated the combined forces of King Xuan Gu and Wu Feng in the early Nascent Soul stage.

King Xuan Gu is one of the three bone zombies under the command of Lord Bai Gu. His strength is comparable to that of a great cultivator and his reputation is well-known.

In this case, doesn't it mean that Zhou Xun has the strength of the late Nascent Soul stage?
The early monks already have the combat power of the later period.
What does this mean? How could the cultivators of Dajin not know? This means that this is a Divine Transformation Seed.
In the future you will have the qualifications to become a god.

So in the following time, people came to visit every day.

In the cave, Zhou Xun sent off a group of visitors, and rested in the courtyard with Tianci Zhenjun and the other two.

"If this continues, the spiritual tea in my hand will be used up!"

"This Dajin monk is really too enthusiastic!" Zhou Xun couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"This just proves that your name has spread throughout the entire Jinyang Fairy City!" Tianci Zhenjun said with a smile.

"Yes, big brother is so powerful that he should be famous all over the world!" Wang Erniu added.
at this time,

A beam of fire flew in from the cave entrance, landed above the restriction, and dashed left and right.

"Well, there's another one coming!"

Zhou Xun shook his head,

Fortunately, these few days were the interval for waiting for the battle between Lingling Prefecture and Guiyang Prefecture, and they had nothing else to do.
Otherwise, I probably wouldn’t have so much time to receive visitors.

Zhou Xun flicked his finger, and a beam of light hit the sound transmission note above.
Then, an old and powerful voice came out:

"Liu He from Jianhu Palace is here to visit. I hope Brother Zhou can take the time to meet him!"

"Liu He, the supreme elder of Jianhu Palace, Sword Immortal Liu He!" Upon hearing this name, a piece of information flashed through the minds of the three people at the same time.

This is one of the most powerful people in Dajin now.

The fact that Jianhu Palace can maintain its current momentum is closely related to him.

His strength is top-notch among all beings below the level of God Transformation.

Even Lord Bai Gu is not as good as him.

You know, Lord Bai Gu has three bone zombies as helpers that are comparable to great monks, but he is still not as famous as Liu He.
This shows how powerful this person is.

But, how could such a person visit me?

Zhou Xun was extremely puzzled.

Although he is now famous, the strength he has displayed is similar to that of Liu He in the past.

The three of them looked at each other, and Tianci Zhenjun spoke first:

"Since it is Immortal Liu Jianxian who is here, we naturally cannot neglect him!"

So the three of them stood up together and went to the door to greet them.

When I opened the door, I saw a middle-aged man in a suit with a sword case on his back standing at the door.

She wore a wide robe with big sleeves, her white clothes were whiter than snow, her black hair was slightly tied up, and the jade belt around her waist was gently hanging down, fluttering in the wind.

Standing there, it was like a nine-day long river slowly unfolding before you.

"Meet Immortal Liu Jianxian!"

Zhou Xun and the other two were the first to greet him. "Thank you for your courtesy, fellow Taoists. I am sorry for disturbing you by coming here!" Liu He spoke politely.

He seems like an ordinary scholar.

"Please invite Immortal Liu Jianxian to come in and have a chat!"

Then the four of them walked in through the gate together and sat down in the pavilion in the courtyard. The four of them just filled the stone table.

As soon as he sat down, Liu He took out a sword talisman, placed it on the table, and said:

"This talisman seals a stream of my Great River Sword Qi, which has a power equal to 80% of my full strength. I am sorry for the insolence of your visit, and I hope that Brother Zhou will accept it!"

Zhou Xun was delighted when he heard this.
Liu Jianxian's attack was 80% of his full strength. Its power was probably the best among the great cultivators.

Even the True Lord Tianyi of Zhongzhou back then probably could not compare to him.

"Thank you very much. I am very grateful to you. I wonder why Immortal Liu Jian came here today?"

Zhou Xun didn't exchange too many pleasantries and went straight to asking the other party why he came.

"When Fellow Daoist Zhou defeated King Xuan Gu that day, the sword technique he displayed seemed to be the secret of my Jianhu Palace, the technique of 'Sword Shadow Becomes One'?" Liu He's eyes were as sharp as swords.

Hearing this, Zhou Xun and Wang Erniu were shocked.
Could it be that their swordsmanship has a close connection with Jianhu Palace?

The two looked at each other, and then Zhou Xun nodded slowly:

"That's exactly the technique!"

"But." Zhou Xun paused and continued:
"How can Liu Jianxian prove that this method is from your Jianhu Palace?"

"This technique is one of the three secrets of my Jianhu Palace!" Liu He sighed, then slowly opened his mouth and told a secret that was unknown to others.

"My three fellow Taoists should know that my Jianhu Palace was once a sect that transformed into a god!"

"That's right!" Zhou Xun and the other two nodded.

"After the disappearance of the Sword God Liu Bai, the ancestor of my Jianhu Palace, the entrance to the secret realm of our inheritance suddenly became inoperable."

"No more access!"

"Therefore, only fragments of these three secrets are circulated!"

"For example, the Sword Shadow Transformation Technique, only the first two levels are currently circulated in my Jianhu Palace!"

"And what Fellow Daoist Zhou performed that day, if I am correct, was the fourth level. A total of 360 sword lights merged into one, and the power was increased by two times!"

"This is a sword technique that none of our sect has yet!"

"This is also the reason why I came here today. I hope that Brother Zhou can teach me. Where did you get this 'Sword Shadow Transformation' technique?"

As Liu He spoke, he actually revealed a hint of excitement.

Hearing this, Zhou Xun shook his head:
"Based on this statement alone, I'm afraid it can't prove that 'Sword Shadow Becomes One' is the method of your Jianhu Palace!"

Hearing this, Liu He frowned, glanced around, and then said,
"In that case, I will use this technique!"

As he spoke, he shook his body, and the sword box behind him flew up automatically.

A dull green sword flew up and hovered in front of Liu He.

Then, he raised his hand to form a sword finger.

"Sword Shadow Becomes One"

Then he put his hands together and shouted softly,
Magic power surged at the fingertips, and a ray of spiritual light shone on the green sword and hit it over!

Suddenly, sword lights appeared out of nowhere, surrounding Liuhe and flying up and down. When counting carefully, there were twenty-seven swords in total!
Then the spell changed.
These sword lights then merged into the long 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.
Seeing this scene, Zhou Xun's doubts faded away and he nodded:
"Yes, it is the 'Sword Shadow Becomes One' technique!"

But this is not over yet,
Liu He made hand gestures, changed his spell, and pointed at the long sword again.
I saw the sword lights split out again.
What was even more amazing was that there were fifty-four sword lights.

Then he said softly:
"Tianyuan Sword Formation, start!"

These sword lights began to change and moved in a certain pattern!
"Brother, this is the Tianyuan Sword Formation for sure!" Wang Erniu said solemnly.

"Erniu, it seems that your sword technique is really a secret of Jianhu Palace!" Zhou Xun replied.

Wang Erniu nodded, and then said:
"Brother, leave it to me next!"

Zhou Xun naturally had no objection. After all, his sword skills came from Wang Erniu.

As for where he got it from, he didn't know.

Liu He came here for this method, so the person he was really looking for was Wang Erniu.

Wang Erniu said:

"Liu Jianxian, please stop, we believe you!"

Liu He was stunned when he heard this, and turned his gaze to Zhou Xun.

"Liu Jianxian, stop. This is Wang Erniu, a sword cultivator like you. I learned all these sword skills from him!" Zhou Xun explained.

Liu He immediately stopped what he was doing and put the green sword back into the box.

But there was still a hint of doubt on his face.

"Erniu, you should show your skills too!"

Wang Erniu nodded slightly and stood up.

With his mouth slightly opened, a sword ball flew out, turning into a three-foot-long sword that suddenly floated in front of him.

"This is the Gengjin Sword Pill Method!"

Liu He showed surprise on his face, and then he showed surprise, and his eyes were full of excitement.

Wang Erniu nodded when he heard this.

"Sword shadows become one!"

Wang Erniu shouted softly, and the sword in his hand instantly turned into several rays of light. These rays of light intertwined and entangled with each other, and their number kept increasing. In a moment, three hundred and sixty sword lights appeared.

Different from Liu He's previous performance, Wang Erniu's sword light contained a unique rhythm, and a very sharp feeling arose spontaneously.

Then, he lightly tapped his sword finger, and 360 sword lights began to slowly merge.
Seeing this, Liu He's eyes flashed with surprise and excitement:
"It is indeed the sword-shadow-in-one technique. Looking at the technique and artistic conception, it seems to contain the Gengjin sword intent."

"Friend Wang, where did you learn this technique?"

Wang Erniu put the sword back into his dantian, sat down slowly, and glanced around.
With a wave of his hand, a golden translucent light shield enveloped everyone.

Seeing this, Wang Erniu finally felt relieved, and then he moved his lips slightly and whispered something to Liu He,
Liu He was startled at first, then he showed a look of ecstasy, his breathing became rapid, his face turned red, and he was so excited that he couldn't control himself.

It took a long time before things calmed down.

At this time, Wang Erniu looked at Zhou Xun, with an apologetic look on his face, and said:
"Brother, I have sworn that unless I meet someone named Liu, I will not tell anyone the origin of this sword technique!"

"I know!" Zhou Xun waved his hand.

He had some vague guesses about all this.
However, it was enough for him to learn this sword art, so there was no need to delve into its origins.

At this time, Liu He had calmed down, thought for a moment, and said to Wang Erniu:

"Since Fellow Daoist Wang knows the secret teachings of Jianhu Palace, I'm afraid the position of the Holy Son can only be filled by you!"

"I will take responsibility for this matter!"
