Cultivation: From Servant to Revered Immortal

Chapter 537: Chapter 146: Twenty Fleeting Years!

At this moment, Luo Yuancheng was seated in his cave mansion, cultivating,

suddenly he felt something unusual behind him, and immediately stopped his cultivation to turn and look,

just in time to see a young man in white, exceedingly ethereal, smilingly looking at him.

”Elder Wang, you have emerged from closed-door training!”

Luo Yuancheng said joyfully.

”Indeed, your cultivation has not been neglected!” Zhou Xun glanced at Luo Yuancheng, instantly familiarizing himself with his situation.

Luo Yuancheng was currently at the peak of Eighth-Layer Qi Refining, likely within twenty years he could attempt Core Formation.

”It’s all thanks to the elder’s nurturing!”

Luo Yuancheng respectfully replied,

actually, he wasn’t wrong, as Zhou Xun had guided his cultivation on more than one occasion.

It should be known, Zhou Xun was previously a genuine Middle-Stage Core Formation Cultivator, high above, naturally easily finding his flaws,

adapting to the circumstances, quickly resolving Luo Yuancheng’s problems.

It could be said that without Zhou Xun, perhaps he would still be stuck at the Sixth-Layer Qi Refining.

”Alright, this time I’m out to inquire about the situation in the Cultivation Realm!” Zhou Xun sat down, took out a jug of Qianfu Spirit Wine, and began drinking by himself.

Before entering closed-door training, to eliminate external interference, Zhou Xun fully activated the array, even sound transmission talismans couldn’t enter,

naturally Luo Yuancheng couldn’t relay information inside.

Hearing this, Luo Yuancheng patted his waist, took out a jade scroll and handed it to Zhou Xun; he had specially prepared these,

regularly adding new information making it very easy to read.

Zhou Xun took the jade scroll, divine sense delved into it, beginning to carefully inspect.

Seeing inside the categorized, orderly records, Zhou Xun couldn’t help but nod,

”You have been thoughtful!”

Luo Yuancheng was elated upon hearing this, for that was exactly what he wanted.

Zhou Xun continued reading,

it turns out that over these twenty years, the situation in the South Sea was like boiling oil, ready to ignite at any moment.

The conflict between the Human Race and the Demon Race had escalated to a new level.

Old Demon Yinji from the Demon Alliance and True Monarch Celestial One of the Righteous all came to Sea Suppression Immortal City!

Additionally, the Sea Race gathered several Tier Four High-Grade Demon Emperors, setting up a camp fifty thousand miles from Sea Suppression Immortal City.

On the seventeenth year of Zhou Xun’s closed-door training, both sides couldn’t hold back, and a massive battle ensued,

in this battle, both sides deployed late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, fighting earth-shatteringly, with severe casualties on both sides!

On the Human Race’s side, nine Nascent Soul cultivators perished, and even worse for the Demon Race, thirteen Tier Four Demon Emperors were directly slain, including three Tier Four Middle-Grade ones.

Several cultivators stood out,

among them was Zhou Xun’s old acquaintance, True Monarch Tianci,

who, during that battle, in anger, slew the Tier Four Middle-Grade Sea-Covering Whale Emperor, greatly shocking the region, prompting the South Abyss Demon Emperor to personally engage,

ultimately, True Monarch Tianci managed to withstand several moves before retreating completely unscathed.

”Unexpectedly, Daoist Brother Tianci came to this Central Continent like a fish in water, soaring to great heights!”

Zhou Xun continued reading,

after this battle, neither the Human Race nor the Demon Race gained any advantage, which led to a strategic stalemate, with both sides using Sea Suppression Immortal City as the centerline, extending the confrontation across billions of miles of sea.

Thus, both sides entered a brief peace, although it was well known that the next battle would inevitably be even more brutal.

”Billions of miles of coastline, engaged in confrontation, what about our Celestial Talisman Island Sea Region?”

Looking at the map, Celestial Talisman Island was just located near this line.

”Our Celestial Talisman Island Sea Region now has a True Monarch Nascent Soul stationed!” Luo Yuancheng replied earnestly,

”Who might it be?” Zhou Xun asked curiously,

”This person is your old acquaintance, True Monarch Iron Mountain!”

”True Monarch Iron Mountain, he successfully formed Nascent Soul as well?” Zhou Xun couldn’t help but feel surprised,

”It seems we Eastern Wilderness cultivators are not lacking in talent, however restricted by Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, not knowing how many heroes are thus halted at Core Formation!”

”Perhaps, those Core Formation cultivators, if placed in this Central Continent, might have the potential to impact Nascent Soul!”

Zhou Xun remarked.

”Do you know where True Monarch Iron Mountain is?”

”His elderly self is currently stationed at Ringless Island, thirty thousand miles north of Celestial Talisman Island, which is at the front line of the Demon Race confrontation,”

”My master is there now too, fortunately having True Monarch Iron Mountain’s care, only then can his life be preserved!”

Luo Yuancheng said.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Xun nodded.

Unexpectedly, during his closed-door training this period, the situation had escalated to this extent.

Even for him, it’s hard to say if he could preserve his life; under such grand circumstances, no one can control it,

fortunately, what Zhou Xun left here was a mere avatar,

even if destroyed, it poses no threat to his life!

”By the way, did you obtain any information about the Spirit Medicine I asked you to investigate?” Zhou Xun continued asking.

”Seven years ago, a secret realm emerged in the Demon Race Sea Region, said to produce high-tier Spirit Medicine, but because that realm was too conspicuous,”

”even Nascent Soul cultivators went there,”

”right into the Demon Race’s trap, falling one of our Human Race’s True Monarchs!”

Luo Yuancheng replied.

”However, although there’s no news on the Nine-Encompassing Purple Spirit Ginseng, several other Nascent Soul Spiritual Objects have appeared!”

”The Three Great Influences arrived at Sea Suppression Immortal City, to incentivize our Human Race cultivators to fight bravely, they brought out many precious treasures, including the Nascent Soul Pill, such a spiritual object!”

”If the elder steps forward, with your strength, obtaining battle merits to exchange for the Nascent Soul Pill shouldn’t be a problem!”

Luo Yuancheng spoke, eyes revealing a touch of fervor.

To him, Zhou Xun was indeed an exceedingly powerful existence, possibly comparable to a True Monarch Nascent Soul.

”I understand, continue your cultivation!”

Zhou Xun nodded, began scheming,

”Very well, since I have now broken through to Late-Stage Core Formation, with the support of Celestial Profound Spirit Armor, I should have the power to contend with early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators.”

”As long as I don’t venture to the core battlefield, it should be safe,”

”I might as well take a trip to Ringless Island, and meet Daoist Brother Iron Mountain before deciding!”

With that, he formed a hand seal, and with a flash of light, transformed into a spirit light, swiftly heading towards the location of Ringless Island.

...

At the same time, deep within the South Sea, on a certain uninhabited island,

suddenly a ripple appeared, followed by a figure rushing out, revealing an elderly man with greying hair, most unforgettable of all, was a thumb-sized mole on his chin.

”What a treasure, I never thought I’d have such a good fortune, discovering such a relic!”

”It’s truly heaven’s blessing!”

”Unfortunately, with my sparse array skills, I cannot break the array, otherwise all the treasures here would be mine alone,”

”For now, it seems the advantage will go to Brother Hu!”

The elder was full of regret, flying towards Sea Suppression Immortal City.

...

In Sea Suppression Immortal City, inside the Celestial Fortune Tavern, within a top-grade private room, two elders sat facing each other,

one of them had greying hair, a black mole on his chin,

the other possessed an immortal-like aura, attired in a Dao robe of exceptional quality.

Only to see the elder with the black mole lower his voice:

”Brother Hu, I truly am not lying to you, the Void Tribulation Flower, Nine-Encompassing Purple Spirit Ginseng, Dragon Blood Fruit, they’re all there,”

”These are three major Nascent Soul Spiritual Objects, if you and I take them out, Nascent Soul is within reach!”

However, unknown to them, his statement had already been overheard by a black-clad figure in the room next door.

”Quick, report to the master, Master Muji isn’t a Demon Race spy, but he appears to have discovered an extraordinary relic!”
