Cultivation of Immortality: Start by Improving Spiritual Root Qualifications

Chapter 705 Zhou Xun: You have a way to die!
After the old man left, another middle-aged man in brocade robes stood up and slowly said:

"I am willing to offer six top-grade spirit stones in exchange for this teleportation array technique. How do you think?"

"I can also swear a vow to the devil that I will not teach this technique to anyone else within thirty years!"

Hearing this, Zhou Xun suddenly reacted.

Yes,

This teleportation array technique is extremely needed by many forces, and it can be directly copied and sold.

It's not easy to have so many monks of the same level today. Isn't it an opportunity to make a lot of money?
Even if the price per person is lower, as long as there are enough people, you can make a lot of money.
Thinking of this, Zhou Xun nodded immediately:
"No problem, I'll trade with you!" After saying that, he took out another blank jade slip and engraved the teleportation array technique into it.
After making a vow to his inner demon in middle age, he made a deal with him.

After the transaction was completed, the old man looked at Zhou Xun in disbelief.
He had spent two drops of Heavenly Spirit Wood Marrow Fluid and three top-grade Spirit Stones to get it.

The total value is about nine top-grade spirit stones.

How could he accept this? Just as he was about to stand up and question,

A gentle voice sounded in his ears:

"Fellow Daoist Tong, I made a mistake just now. I will return these three top-grade spirit stones to you after the exchange meeting is over!"

It was Zhou Xun’s message.

He would certainly not ruin his reputation for three top-grade spirit stones.
Who made him not think of this step before?

Sure enough, with the middle-aged taking the lead,

One after another, the monks stood up, came to Zhou Xun, and exchanged the teleportation array technique.

When Zhou Xun left the platform and returned to his seat,
Almost all the monks in the audience looked at him with envy.

In just a short while, he sold eight copies, which is 48 top-grade spirit stones.

This was wealth he had never had before.

That is to say, the number of people attending this trade fair was limited, otherwise his gains would have been even greater.

"What a wave of fat!" Zhou Xun sat down.

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded in my ears.
"Although I don't have the treasure that Fellow Daoist Zhou needs, I don't know the news of my 'Golden Feather Cloud-Stepping Eagle'."

Zhou Xun was overjoyed when he heard this. He didn't expect to get the news so soon. It seems that it was really worth coming to this trade fair!

Immediately replied:
"How about we discuss this in detail after the trade fair is over?"

"Then I'll wait for you in Room 9 on the second floor!"

After the two of them reached an agreement, they continued to wait for the trade fair to proceed, and soon it was Wang Erniu's turn.

Although he just broke through not long ago, Wang Erniu also has a lot of good things.
When he was in the South China Sea cultivation world, he once killed two fourth-level monsters.

What was brought out for trading today was exactly one of the demon pills.
With this, he exchanged for an extremely rare golden material that could effectively enhance the power of his natal flying sword.

As for Tianci Zhenjun, he is even richer.
A fourth-grade medium-quality demon pill attracted a lot of people in the field to fight for it, and they successfully exchanged it for a Deliverance Pill.

Now he has reached the peak of the early Nascent Soul stage.
With this Deliverance Pill, I think it won't be long before I can officially advance to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.
With Lord Tianci's magical powers and Taoism, his strength must be at the late Nascent Soul stage. By joining forces like this, they will no longer be afraid of Lord Baigu.

Soon, the trade fair ended, and most people got satisfactory treasures.

"Brother Tianci, Erniu, you can go back to the cave first. I have an appointment with someone to discuss an important matter!" Zhou Xun said.

"But have you found any clues about the treasures you wanted?" asked Tianci Zhenjun.

"That's right. I'm lucky enough to have the news!" Zhou Xun replied.

Tianci Zhenjun nodded, and then walked towards the cave with Wang Erniu.

As for Zhou Xun, he came to the elegant room No. 9 on the third floor.

Knocked lightly on the door.

A voice called "Come in" came from inside the door. Zhou Xun pushed the door open and saw a cultivator with a thin face and deep eyes sitting in the room. He was in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.

"Fellow Daoist Zhou, you are here. Please take a seat." The monk stood up to greet him and motioned Zhou Xun to sit down.

"Thank you for waiting, fellow Daoist. May I ask your name?" Zhou Xun said politely.

"My name is Su Yu. I am a casual cultivator who has been searching for traces of spiritual creatures in various places all year round."

"Today at the trade fair, I heard that Fellow Daoist Zhou was looking for the 'Golden-Feathered Cloud-Treading Eagle'. It just so happens that I know some related clues that may be of help to Fellow Daoist." Su Yu said slowly.

"Friend Su, if you can provide useful clues, I will reward you handsomely." A hint of anticipation flashed in Zhou Xun's eyes.

"What if I can directly point out where this sculpture is?" Su Yu's eyes moved and he continued to speak.

Zhou Xun was overjoyed when he heard this and asked quickly:
"This is true. Fellow Daoist can actually point out the location of this monster. If this is true, Fellow Daoist has any requests, just ask!"

Su Yu smiled slightly and said slowly:

"Fellow Daoist Zhou has earned a lot of spirit stones today. I only need ten top-grade spirit stones. How do you think?"

"What, ten?" Zhou Xun's face paused, and he immediately said in a cold voice:
"If you can take out the blood of the Golden Winged Cloud-Stepping Eagle, ten top-grade spirit stones would be justifiable."

"But if it's just a piece of information, it's not worth so much. It would be one or two spirit stones at most. Daoist friend, you are asking for too much!"

Su Yu heard this, smiled slightly, and said slowly:
"Whether the price is worth it depends on how important it is to you. Besides, I've offered my own price. If you think it's high, just leave!"

Then Su Yu revealed a hint of cunning and whispered: "But in my opinion, fellow Taoist will agree!"

"But since Fellow Daoist Zhou said so, I can't help but give him face. How about nine spiritual stones?"

"This is less than the price you paid for the teleportation array technique twice. If it's any lower, I'll leave!"

Hearing this, Zhou Xun's face changed, and he finally decided to agree.
Firstly, he had obtained a lot of spirit stones today, so he could take them out easily.
Secondly, if I could really get the essence of my heart, even though the cost would be much higher, it would be barely acceptable.

After all, this 'Golden Winged Cloud-Stepping Eagle' is too rare and has been extinct in Dajin for thousands of years.
There was no news from this person, and I didn’t know when I would hear from him again, so I nodded:

"Nine spirit stones are no problem, but what if the news you gave is false?"

"Su, I can swear an oath to my inner demons that I saw the 'Golden-Feathered Cloud-Treading Eagle' with my own eyes!" After saying that, he really raised his hand and swore.

Hearing this, Zhou Xun's expression lightened up a bit, and then he said,
"Okay, then I believe you, fellow Taoist. Please let me know the news!"

But Su Yu was unmoved. Seeing this, Zhou Xun snorted coldly, then patted his storage bag, took out nine top-grade spirit stones and handed them over.

Su Yu took it, showing a greedy look, put the spirit stone into his pocket, and then slowly said:

"This golden-feathered cloud-stepping eagle is an ancient species with extraordinary bloodline."

"They have been extinct in our Great Jin for thousands of years,"

"But fifteen years ago, I saw this official with my own eyes. He was in the Danyang Palace in Xuzhou." "He was raised by the previous Danyang King. Due to some special reasons, only a few people knew of his existence."

"I know this because I once served as a steward in the Danyang Palace and accidentally saw the original form of the 'Golden Winged Cloud-Stepping Eagle'."

"Fellow Daoist, are you trying to frame me?" Upon hearing this, Zhou Xun couldn't help but look cold and asked:

"The King of Danyang is one of the ten great masters of our Great Jin Dynasty. He is not inferior to the True Lord Bai Gu in any way. In his mansion, there is also a great master in the late Nascent Soul stage, the True Lord Fei Yu."

"How can I break through the heavy defenses and take away the essence of this 'Golden Winged Cloud-Stepping Eagle'?"

"That's not something Su cares about. I have already told the 'Golden Wing Cloud-Stepping Eagle' how to extract blood. It is Brother Zhou's business. The deal between us is done!"

Su Yu snorted coldly.

He was secretly delighted in his heart. He had never expected that the person in front of him could come up with nine spirit stones. He could be considered to have made a fortune.
At the same time, he decided to flee far away immediately after he got out. After all, he was not from Dajin. However, after traveling here, he had already planned to leave.

And the reason I am here to attend the trade fair today is thanks to an invitation from a mansion lord.

By then, the sea will be wide enough for fish to leap and the sky will be high enough for birds to fly, and this person will not be able to find him.

"Okay, very good. I will remember what happened today!"

Zhou Xun felt a little cold in his heart, and revealed a hint of murderous intent. He didn't expect that he would suffer such a big loss at the hands of this person. He definitely couldn't let it go like this.

He said coldly: "Su Yu, you'd better pray that everything you say is true. If there is even a single lie, I will not let you off easily one day."

Su Yu's heart trembled, but he quickly returned to normal: "Don't worry, Brother Zhou, what I said is absolutely true."

"Since the deal has been concluded, Su will not stay any longer. Goodbye!"

After saying that, Su Yu quickly left here and walked outside.

Looking at Su Yu's leaving back, Zhou Xun chuckled and looked at him as if he were a dead person.
With a wave of his hand, he put the cup he had just tasted the spiritual tea from into his storage bag.
This person probably doesn't know that he has such magical skills as divination!

After doing all this, Zhou Xun also left the elegant room.

After Zhou Xun returned to the cave, Tianci Zhenjun and Wang Erniu hurried to greet him.

"Brother, what's the situation?" Wang Erniu asked.

With a mocking look on his face, Zhou Xun told them the details of the transaction with Su Yu.

After Wang Erniu heard this, he said angrily: "This Su Yu is really abominable. How dare he deceive my brother like this? I will chase him right now and make him spit out the spirit stone and give my brother justice."

Tianci Zhenjun stopped him and said, "Don't worry, Erniu. It's too late to chase after him now. Since Su Yu dared to do this, he must have been prepared and he is sure that we won't find him."

"But we finally got the news about the 'Golden-Feathered Cloud-Stepping Eagle', so it wasn't in vain!"

Zhou Xun nodded slightly and said, "Brother Tianci is absolutely right."

Then, the three of them began to discuss how to extract the blood essence of the 'Golden-Feathered Cloud-Treading Eagle'!

"This heart essence is extremely important to Big Brother. Even though Danyang Palace is in great danger, we must give it a try." Wang Erniu said.

Zhou Xun's eyes were firm as he said, "Yes, this eagle has an extraordinary bloodline and is extremely rare. I'm afraid it can't be found anywhere else except here!"

"Why don't we use the strategy of luring the tiger away from the mountain? Erniu and I will take the opportunity to attack the Danyang Palace, while you sneak into the palace and take blood. This may work!"

“But King Danyang is a great master at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. If we get entangled by him, we’ll probably be in big trouble!” Zhou Xun shook his head.

Upon hearing this, Tianci Zhenjun smiled slightly.
"Brother, don't underestimate us. Today I got this 'Du' Pill, and it will only take a moment for me to break through to the middle stage."

"After I break through, I will be able to use many magical powers. Even if I am defeated, I can still escape!"

"Then I'll trouble you, Brother Dao!" Zhou Xun nodded.

Thinking of the "Red Flame Secret" of Tianci Zhenjun, after reaching the middle stage of Yuanying, one can perform the fire escape technique.

It is the best escape method in the world.

After deciding on a strategy, everyone began to perform their respective duties.

Zhou Xun and Wang Erniu were responsible for searching for information about the Danyang Palace and seeking opportunities to infiltrate it. As for Tianci Zhenjun, he went into seclusion.

Start to reach the middle stage of Nascent Soul.

At the same time, after Su Yu left Tianyue Tower, he immediately began to walk around in circles.

At the same time, he secretly left behind a spirit insect, and after making sure that Zhou Xun had not followed him secretly, he nodded with satisfaction.

But this is not over yet,
He found an inn and changed all his robes. He used his spiritual sense to search his body inch by inch, but found nothing unusual.
Then he changed into new clothes and returned to his residence.

Take all your treasures and prepare to leave.

Just as he was about to head to the city's teleportation hall, he stopped.

"This Zhou Xun, who is only in the early stage of Nascent Soul, was able to defeat a late stage cultivator. He might have some background. If he sends someone to keep an eye on the Transmission Hall, then I will be delivered to his door."

"Today I will do the opposite and leave through the city gate!"

"No matter how hard he tries, he will never guess that I will take this path!"

"After all, the first reaction of most cultivators is to take the teleportation array and escape far away!" Thinking of this, Su Yu couldn't help but smile proudly.

"If I had known earlier, I would have cheated him out of a few more. These are top-grade spirit stones!" Su Yu sighed.
At the same time, they went out of the south gate, made a circle, and then rushed towards the north.

On the second day after Tianci Zhenjun's retreat,

Zhou Xun planned to go out and head to the city where intelligence was sold to find out about the Danyang Palace.

However, before going out, Zhou Xun took out the Bu Tian compass and the teacup as usual.

After being cheated yesterday, Zhou Xun would take out the compass and do divination every two hours, fearing that this person would leave.

But what surprised him was that this person had actually stayed in the city.

Put away the divination compass,
Zhou Xun muttered something, put his hands together, and pointed at the teacup.
Then an invisible energy was drawn out and merged into the compass.
After a moment, the compass flashed and showed a golden arrow pointing to somewhere in the north.

"You left the city gate. You are indeed a smart man. It's a pity that you never expected that I have the ability to tell fortunes!"

Then he put away the compass and teacup,

He left the cave immediately.

When he arrived outside the South Gate, he took out his compass and calculated.
Finally, we rushed in the direction indicated by the arrow on the compass.

He wanted to let the other party know that his spirit stones were not so easy to obtain.
