Beast-controlling fairy clan

Zhou Zhengyong's son Zhou Xinlan tested positive for middle-grade spiritual root qualifications, and this news soon spread throughout the Zhou family.

Seriously speaking, the middle-grade spiritual root qualification is not a particularly outstanding spiritual root qualification. It can only be said to be just in line with the qualifications to join those sects. There is a certain chance that the foundation can be successfully established in the future.

The Zhou family now has a total of twenty or thirty cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage with middle-grade spiritual root qualifications, which is not a small number.

Even if Zhou Zhengyong's son detects such aptitude, it will not reach the level of cheers from the whole family.

The reason why the news of his son's middle-grade spiritual root qualification spread quickly throughout the entire clan was because this guy talked about it arrogantly and flaunted it everywhere.

There is no way, there are only seven juniors in the Zhou family's "heart" generation in total. His son is the second among them to have middle-grade spiritual root qualifications, and the first one's parents are mortals.

Therefore, his son Zhou Xinlan is actually the first monk with middle-level spiritual root qualifications among the descendants of the "righteous" generation of monks in the Zhou family.

This gave him bragging rights.

The patriarch Zhou Daoyi was also happy to see this happen, and even wished that someone would come to complain to him.

If anyone dares to complain, he will just say "If you have the ability, you will be born" and give birth to a hard core.

It's a pity that no one has the nerve to complain about this kind of thing.

When little Zhou Xinlan turned one year old, Zhou Chun quickly left Jiufeng Ridge after drinking his first birthday.

When Zhou Chun left his family this time, he was going to an abandoned fine gold mine to collect high-quality gold energy for practicing the "Xinjin Sword Energy".

The fine gold vein is located in a mountain range in the northwest of Lanzhou near Lingzhou. It was originally owned by Qinglian Temple.

After all the fine gold ore in the vein was mined, the vein was abandoned by Qinglian Temple and is now occupied by a group of casual cultivators.

These casual cultivators live around the abandoned mine veins, and they will dig inside the mine veins when they have time, hoping to dig out the fine gold ore left in them.

In fact, this is how many spiritual gold ores sold by casual cultivators come from.

It's not that any casual cultivator has ore in his hands, it's that he discovered a mine vein.

It is also a common practice in the world of immortality to hand over abandoned mineral veins to casual cultivators for disposal, thereby squeezing out the last resources of the mineral veins.

In this way, the forces occupying the mineral veins save costs and achieve their goals, while casual cultivators can also profit from it.

The Chiyao iron veins currently mined by the Zhou family and other five major cultivating families are expected to do the same in the end.

The distance from Jiufeng Ridge to the abandoned fine gold vein was more than a thousand miles. Zhou Chun traveled alone for four or five days before finally reaching his destination outside the mountain.

In order to deceive others, Zhou Chun had made up into a young man in Tsing Yi with slightly dark skin.

His yellow and black face made him look much more mature, at least thirty-seven or eighty-years-old.

This age matches his current cultivation level of the tenth level of the Qi Refining Stage. Although it is still a bit unusual, it is at least not as eye-catching as the cultivation level at his true age.

And his identity at this time also became Han Sanjue, a casual cultivator.

Sanjue can be regarded as commemorating the former Sanjue Sect.

"The Hidden Gold Mountains should be ahead. Although according to the news, the abandoned mine vein is very large and easy to find, but in order to save time, it is better to directly ask the nearby monks."

On the outskirts of the rolling mountains, Zhou Chun sat on horseback and looked at the rolling mountains in front of him, and he quickly came up with a plan.

He dismounted, released the horse he bought from a city not far away into the wilderness, and then blessed himself with the "Wind Control Technique" and started galloping in the mountains.

At the same time, a goshawk with blue and black feathers was released from the eagle cage on his back by Zhou Chun, and it circled into the sky to search for traces of humans in the mountain forest.

This tamed goshawk was specially rented from his family before he came out, specifically for searching for humans and providing warning.

As for the "red-billed bird" he used before, it had exhausted its lifespan and died of old age half a year ago.

There is no doubt that the goshawk has great advantages in detecting people compared to the "redbill", which is smaller and flies not too high and not too fast.

It is thousands of feet high in the air, and can easily see the rabbits jumping in the forest below, and its flying speed is also extremely fast.

After Zhou Chun released the reconnaissance eagle, he found a target in less than an hour.

He was a casual cultivator who was looking for medicine in the mountains and forests. He only had a poor fourth-level cultivation in the Qi Refining Stage, but he looked to be at least forty years old.

This level of cultivation at this age shows that not only does this person have poor spiritual qualifications, but he must also be quite old when he embarks on the path of cultivating immortals.

Sure enough, when Zhou Chun went over and communicated with him, he learned that he had only started to learn the way of cultivating immortals after he was twenty years old.

This monk surnamed Geng was originally a lay herb collector. He accidentally rescued a casual cultivator who was injured while collecting herbs in the mountains, and was then taught the immortal cultivation techniques by him and came into contact with the world of immortality.

However, due to his low spiritual qualifications and lack of guidance and guidance, it took nearly twenty years for him to reach the fourth level of the Qi Refining Stage.

However, he has great perseverance and backbone. After he first learned about the dangers of turbid evil energy from the casual cultivators he rescued, he usually did not meditate in the wilderness even if he was not practicing.

Otherwise, no matter how poor his qualifications are, he will not be able to achieve this level of cultivation after twenty years of training.

After understanding this, Zhou Chun also admired the perseverance of monk surnamed Geng.

At that moment, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "The path to immortality is elusive and hard to come by. Fellow Daoist Geng's persistence makes Han admire him. These three spiritual coins should be considered as travel expenses given by Han to fellow Daoist. I hope there will be more in the future." A day to meet fellow Taoists!"

After saying that, he forced three spirit coins into the opponent's hand, then hugged his fists and said goodbye.

Looking at his quickly leaving back, and then looking at the spirit coin in his hand, the monk surnamed Geng was happy, but also very grateful and clasped his fists at him and saluted: "Fellow Daoist Han, take care of yourself all the way!"

After being separated from the monk surnamed Geng, Zhou Chun followed the other party's instructions and found the abandoned fine gold vein in the Zangjin Mountains in less than half a day.

This fine gold vein was originally a medium-to-large mine with rich reserves. The vein stretched for dozens of miles, and more than a dozen mines were dug out.

Later, after Qinglian Temple abandoned this place, a large number of casual cultivators intervened here, and the number of mines dug among the mountains increased tenfold or dozens of times.

Therefore, when Zhou Chun rushed to the abandoned mine veins, he easily saw abandoned mines one after another.

Nowadays, most of those mines have been reduced to habitats for wild beasts, and some of them are hidden and will be transformed into temporary shelters by the monks who are still mining here.

In short, this area is not peaceful.

But Zhou Chun doesn't need to worry about this.

At the tenth level of his Qi refining stage, even if he could walk sideways in the abandoned mines, no one would dare to provoke him.

After all, after most casual cultivators reach this level of cultivation, they can hunt monsters and earn spirit coins. There is no need to hang out in such abandoned mines.

This is where the real low-level casual cultivators hang out, where they dig for gold.

At this time, after walking around in the forest for several hours, Zhou Chun found a main mine.

The so-called main mine refers to the mine dug when Qinglian Temple started mining.

Only in the depths of such mines, where a large amount of fine gold ore once bred, can the high-quality gold gas that Zhou Chun wants remain.

Hiss~hiss!

A low snake hiss slowly rose inside the mine.

Along with the sound, there were slight footsteps.

I saw Zhou Chun holding the "Sunstone" in his hand, walking step by step along the abandoned mine tunnel towards the depths of the ground.

A few feet in front of him, the silver lightning python Baibai acted as a pioneer, driving away the snakes, insects, rats, ants, and bats that lived in the mine tunnels.

The current silver lightning python is more than three feet long, and its cultivation level is comparable to that of a sixth-level immortal cultivator in the Qi refining stage.

Zhou Chun also gradually tilted his resources toward it and began to feed it [Beast Spirit Pills] and other elixirs that would help its growth.

But for now, Zhou Chun doesn't need it to help fight.

At most, it's just like now, used to help with some small, non-dangerous things.

In this way, Zhou Chun finally found his target after driving the snake downward for more than 20 miles in the underground mine tunnel.

The place where he is at this time is in a branch mine tunnel above the main mine tunnel, and the end of this branch mine tunnel is in front of him.

Here, Zhou Chun sensed the residual gold energy that was not strong but barely met his needs.

"Xiao Baibai, go to the front and be on guard. If you find anything, you must notify me as soon as possible."

With a thought in his mind, Zhou Chun immediately issued a warning order to the Silver Lightning Python, asking it to go on guard dozens of feet away.

After the silver lightning python left, he reached out and patted the storage bag on his waist and took out a pale golden gourd magic weapon.

Since the Zhou family has a collection of secret techniques such as "Xinjin Sword Qi", they will certainly consider the high-quality gold energy that the family's monks will need to practice the secret technique in the future.

The gourd weapon in Zhou Chun's hand was specially refined to collect gold energy.

At this time, he opened the lid of the gourd instrument and placed it flat in front of him with the mouth of the bottle facing up. Then he sat cross-legged and started to use the secret technique of "Xinjin Sword Qi" to gather and absorb the free golden energy here.

Under the influence of the secret technique, not long after, a trace of invisible golden energy was gathered in front of Zhou Chun, and then absorbed into it by him urging the gourd weapon in front of him.

In fact, he owns a purification stone jar, so he didn't need to go to such trouble. He could just practice the secret technique here.

But the problem is that the existence of the purification stone jar cannot be exposed. If he practices here, it will be difficult to explain when he returns.

After all, Zhou Daoyi asked him to collect enough gold energy and take it back to his family. The family would help purify the evil energy contained in it before giving it to him for cultivation and use.

After spending almost half a day like this, Zhou Chun collected all the nearby gold energy into the gourd instrument.

It's just that the amount of gold energy he needs is quite a lot, and he also needs to consider the replenishment issue after the secret technique is used in the future. This time, he must collect as much gold energy as possible.

In the next half month, Zhou Chun went in and out of multiple mines near the abandoned mine veins, constantly collecting the gold energy he needed.

After his tireless collection, the gold energy reserves in the gourd instrument increased day by day, almost reaching the capacity limit.

On this day, Zhou Chun went down to a mine again, searching for the remaining gold gas.

Then he found the gold gas he could use in a branch mine tunnel.

But just when Zhou Chun gathered to collect gold energy as usual, an accident happened!

At that time, Zhou Chun was running secret techniques to collect gold energy, when suddenly there was a strange sound on the wall of the mine tunnel about ten feet away from him.

Then, before the frightened Zhou Chun heard the noise and stood up, a pangolin-like monster covered with golden scales broke out of the wall and pounced towards him.

This situation scared Zhou Chun to death.

Because when he saw the monster beast, he recognized its origin.

It is an extremely rare golden and earth-attributed monster, the golden-armored pangolin, and it is still in a fully mature state.

The strength of the fully mature golden-armored pangolin is not inferior to that of the twelfth-level monks in the Qi-refining stage, and its combat effectiveness in this underground environment may not be matched by the two twelfth-level monks in the Qi-refining stage.

Not to mention that he has difficulty moving now, even under normal circumstances, he may not be able to deal with this monster in this underground environment.

So Zhou Chun was horrified and hurriedly activated the [Mingxia Pendant] magic weapon he was wearing, releasing clouds of rays of light to protect him.

And just when he finished all this, the golden-armored pangolin beast had already pounced in front of him.

At this time, Zhou Chun discovered that the target of the golden-armored pangolin was not himself, but the gourd magic weapon placed in front of him.

Its target is the gold energy inside the gourd!

An idea flashed in Zhou Chun's mind, and he instantly understood the intention of the golden-armored pangolin beast.

Then he became anxious.

Not to mention how much time it took him to collect the gold energy in the gourd.

As for this gourd magical weapon, it is also the only such magical weapon left in the Zhou family.

If you lose this item, it will be very troublesome to refine another one, and it will cost a lot of spiritual coins.

So much that he, Zhou Chun, has to pay at least half of the family's good deeds he has accumulated now!

This made Zhou Chun not anxious.

But it was useless for him to be anxious at this time.

The golden-armored pangolin opened its mouth, bit the gourd in one bite, then picked up the gourd and turned around and ran away.

While turning around to run away, its flat and long tail also slapped Zhou Chun hard, making the body-protecting glow released by [Mingxia Pei] shake.

Such an attack failed, and the golden-armored pangolin completely gave up the idea of ​​attacking Zhou Chun, and pounced directly on the hole it dug when it came, preparing to escape.

But at this moment, a snake-shaped split lightning suddenly tore through the darkness in the cave and hit the golden armored pangolin in the head.

Under the lightning strike, the golden-armored pangolin trembled all over, and the gourd in its mouth fell to the ground.

By the time it recovered from the paralysis caused by the lightning strike and picked up the gourd again, Zhou Chun had already stopped his power and stood up.
