Immortal Path Evergreen

After Yuan Yanlai passed away, less than four years later, Gu Xuanzhou's life also came to an end.

Gu Xuanzhou was the best weapon refiner in Ziyang Sect and one of the three ninth-level Jindan cultivators in the sect. His status in Ziyang Sect was far higher than Yuan Yanlai.

His death directly caused the inheritance of weapon refinement in Ziyang Sect to decline.

Compared with Yuan Yanlai, Gu Xuanzhou arranged his funeral in advance and passed away peacefully without suffering any pain.

His last wish was to be buried in the Goddess Peak Cemetery as a Xuansu Sect cultivator, buried with his teachers and disciples.

Like Yuan Yanlai, the names of Xuansu Sect were engraved on the tombstones of these two old men.

With the death of the two, the old era of Ziyang Sect has ended, and a new era has gradually begun.

On the sixth day after Gu Xuanzhou passed away, Kang Duhe, who had been in seclusion for nine years, finally achieved something and successfully broke through the Jindan, filling the gap of the sect's blood loss.

Kang Duhe's Dan formation was not very smooth. His first breakthrough exhausted his family's wealth and he owed a lot of debts, but he failed to form a Dan.

Fortunately, he was lucky and did not hurt his vitality during the Dan formation process, and the sect had enough fifth-level demon pills to support him to go further.

The second Dan formation, he owed the Ministry of Internal Affairs a debt of 400,000 spirit stones, and finally lived up to everyone's expectations and walked ahead of his teacher, Liang Laozu.

Liang Laozu's life was not smooth, and the last few decades were spent paving the way for his fellow apprentices.

He even dragged his old body and risked his life to fight against Jindan cultivators.

After settling his fellow apprentices in Qingxuan Sect, he also found friends such as Zhang's Sanzi Mansion for them.

"If I had better luck and was not seriously injured and ruined my path, I would definitely have seized this opportunity to form a Dan." Wei Bohan saw his fellow apprentice forming a Dan, thought of his own life, and suddenly felt mixed emotions in his heart, and couldn't help crying.

After more than 300 years of hard practice, Kang Duhe finally took a crucial step on the road of cultivation.

After refining the golden elixir, the life span of a cultivator will be as long as 800 years, and the life of a cultivator will be turned upside down.

After Kang Duhe formed the elixir, he took over as the head of the Zhikeyuan.

The first major thing he did after taking power was to obey Zhang Zhixuan's edict and hold a elixir formation celebration for himself and invite masters from nearby sects.

Although the funerals of Yuan Yanlai and Gu Xuanzhou were also grand, they were funerals after all, and no outsiders were invited to participate.

It is a great joy to celebrate that a new cultivator in the sect has formed the elixir.

Zhang Zhixuan sent the Purple Mansion cultivator to invite the elixir of the sects of nearby countries such as the State of Yu, the State of Liang, the State of Pei, and the State of Song, obviously wanting to make a name for himself.

Several small countries near the State of Yu, except the State of Song, were vassals of the State of Wu in the past.

In the past few hundred years, due to the civil strife in Wu, the State of Yu has become independent, and the Jingyang Sect of the State of Pei has also changed its sect and joined the Song Patriarch of the Danyang Sect.

Although the states of Xi and Liang still recognized Xuansu Sect as their master, Yang Xuanzhen's control over the vassal states was far less than when they were strong.

The three sects of Xi were of the same blood and helped each other. With three Jindan monks, they were also a strong force. The four sects of Liang had five Jindan monks, and their national strength was even greater.

If the two vassal states of Xi and Liang could be brought over, it would undoubtedly cut off Yang Xuanzhen's arm, and when the final war came, it would save a lot of effort.

The monks of Xi were the easiest to win over.

In the past few hundred years, except for Yuan Yanlai, Wu had not sent a single soldier to Xi.

Moreover, although Yuan Yanlai had passed away, he was also a figure of Ziyang Sect.

If it weren't for the Qingxuan Sect and Tianchan Cave monks who joined forces to defeat the poisonous dragon pool monster last time, the monks of Xi might not have been able to keep the mountain gate.

In the past few hundred years, they had already lost half of their territory.

Because Wu State watched the monster beasts invade, the cultivators of the State of Xi were already full of complaints.

As long as the State of Yu could win them over a little, show their powerful strength, and have a bond of gratitude, the three Jindan of the State of Xi would definitely switch sides and help each other with the State of Yu.

Now that Wu State is in decline, Yang Xuanzhen dare not easily release the Jindan cultivators.

In the past few hundred years, the Xuansu Sect of Wu State has almost no influence on the vassal Jindan sects.

As long as they saw the powerful strength of the Ziyang Sect, at the critical moment of the war between the two countries, the cultivators of the State of Liang would not dare to intervene easily even if they did not help.

Sure enough, after the Jindan Ceremony, seeing the powerful strength of the Ziyang Sect, the cultivators of the State of Xi soon had the idea of ​​vassalage.

As a sect close to the Southern Wilderness, the cultivators of the State of Xi always have to find a backer to resist the Yuanying monster cultivators.

Otherwise, they can only be restrained in the face of the siege of the fifth-level monster beasts, and they can't even defend the mountain gate spirit veins.

A few years ago, the three sects of the State of Xi planned to switch to Song Patriarch.

However, Danyang Sect had just swallowed Pei State, and did not want to fall out with Yang Xuanzhen, nor did they intend to anger the poisonous dragon pool monster, so they did not accept the state of Yu, and chose to let them fend for themselves.

Now that Ziyang Sect has emerged, it is almost unnecessary for Zhang Zhixuan to take the initiative, and the three sects of Baihong Mountain, Xuanyang Cave, and Feilong Temple have taken the initiative to approach and willingly become vassals of Ziyang Sect.

Not long after the guests were sent away, a fifth-grade top-grade spiritual medicine finally matured.

This spiritual medicine was planted in the underground cave of Lingjing Mountain, and the medicine age is about 460 years.

As a fifth-grade top-grade spiritual medicine, it would take more than 500 years to mature.

After Zhang Zhixuan obtained the inheritance of the spiritual plant husband of Tianyuan Sect, he used his method of ripening spiritual medicine to make this fifth-grade top-grade purple snow orchid mature forty years in advance.

Zishen Dan is a very precious spiritual pill in the inheritance of Tianyuan Sect, which can help late Jindan cultivators break through bottlenecks.

It is extremely difficult to refine this kind of elixir. If Zhang Zhixuan had not refined a large number of fifth-level elixirs in recent years, he would not have dared to try to refine the purple ginseng pill easily.

The recipe of the purple ginseng pill is complicated and takes up to three years to refine.

Not only do you need two fifth-level spiritual medicines, but the auxiliary spiritual medicines are also relatively rare, requiring thirteen fourth-level spiritual medicines and forty-six third-level spiritual medicines.

It may take a long time just to collect the spiritual medicines.

Although the purple snow orchid is mature, you still need to collect another main medicine, the Hundred Leaf Ginseng, to make up the two main medicines.

Hundred Leaf Ginseng is also a rare spiritual medicine, and the growth environment is very harsh, especially the fifth-level Hundred Leaf Ginseng, which needs to grow for six hundred years.

Zhang Zhixuan sent his disciples to search for several months before he found this spiritual object in Huilongguan.

Huilongguan is a vassal of Ziyang Sect, and there is no fifth-level alchemist in the sect. The mature fifth-level spiritual medicines have been exchanged for spiritual objects by Jindan monks.

Zhang Zhixuan exchanged three mature chalcedony gold mushrooms for Baiye ginseng. The three chalcedony gold mushrooms were worth 30,000 spirit stones, which was slightly higher than the market price of Baiye ginseng. Moreover, chalcedony gold mushrooms can be used to refine foundation-building pills, which is more useful to Huilong Temple.

Although the fifth-level main medicines were gathered, the auxiliary spiritual medicines still had to wait for three years.

Zhang Zhixuan sent seven or eight purple mansion cultivators to travel around nearby countries.

Wu Xianlong and Wen Ziqing even went to the Great Zhou to collect the rarest low-level spiritual medicines in Shenmu Sect.

During these three years, Wang Chengxiang also cultivated to the top of the purple mansion period and prepared to exchange for demon pills and close the death gate.

His worth far exceeded Kang Duhe, and he easily took out 300,000 good deeds to exchange for demon pills. However, this person's foundation is not as good as Kang Duhe, and it takes at least three chances to form a pill.

It takes three chances to form a pill, and the cost-effectiveness is far from enough.

Fortunately, there are a large number of demon pills in the sect treasury now, otherwise the sect would not have such a big capital to cultivate this person.

This person was able to form a pill at the right time.
